Seaport as an Infrastructure Project in india - PIF (from investor side)Nishant Bangar
This slides deal with infrastructure options & scope in seaports over the past & coming years. We took PESTEL, & various evaluation method into considerations.
India has the second largest road network in the world, spanning a total of 4.7 million kilometres. Roads in India bear about 85 per cent of the country's passenger traffic and 60 per cent of freight traffic.
The value of total roads and bridges infrastructure is expected to touch US$ 19.2 billion by 2017. The key factors responsible for driving demand in the sector have been the rise in two-wheeler and four-wheeler vehicles and increasing freight traffic. Rising per-capita incomes and a growing middle class coupled with easier access to finance and a wider price range of vehicles have boosted car sales. During 2007-14, the sales of passenger and commercial vehicles are expected to increase at a compounded annual growth rate (CAGR) of 15 and 13.5 per cent to touch 3.5 and 0.85 million respectively.
Infrastructure spending by the government is expected to touch US$ 1 trillion in the next Five-Year Plan (FY13-17). To promote the sector, the government has allowed 100 per cent foreign direct investment (FDI) under the automatic route. Development of national highways through Public-Private Partnership (PPP) is expected to remain the key focus area for the government. During the next five years, investments through PPP are expected to be over USD41 billion for national highways and around USD10 billion for state highways.

Even those who have a rough idea as to what Public-private Partnership involves, may find it difficult to associate the concept with NGOs. In India, after all, the Government and NGOs are seldom found on the same side. But obviously there are exceptions to this; the Public-private Partnership between these two sides to implement the Mid-day Meal Programme is one of the best examples of the same.

The European Unemployment Puzzle: implications from population agingGRAPE
We study the link between the evolving age structure of the working population and unemployment. We build a large new Keynesian OLG model with a realistic age structure, labor market frictions, sticky prices, and aggregate shocks. Once calibrated to the European economy, we quantify the extent to which demographic changes over the last three decades have contributed to the decline of the unemployment rate. Our findings yield important implications for the future evolution of unemployment given the anticipated further aging of the working population in Europe. We also quantify the implications for optimal monetary policy: lowering inflation volatility becomes less costly in terms of GDP and unemployment volatility, which hints that optimal monetary policy may be more hawkish in an aging society. Finally, our results also propose a partial reversal of the European-US unemployment puzzle due to the fact that the share of young workers is expected to remain robust in the US.

US Economic Outlook - Being Decided - M Capital Group August 2021.pdfpchutichetpong
The U.S. economy is continuing its impressive recovery from the COVID-19 pandemic and not slowing down despite re-occurring bumps. The U.S. savings rate reached its highest ever recorded level at 34% in April 2020 and Americans seem ready to spend. The sectors that had been hurt the most by the pandemic specifically reduced consumer spending, like retail, leisure, hospitality, and travel, are now experiencing massive growth in revenue and job openings.
Could this growth lead to a “Roaring Twenties”? As quickly as the U.S. economy contracted, experiencing a 9.1% drop in economic output relative to the business cycle in Q2 2020, the largest in recorded history, it has rebounded beyond expectations. This surprising growth seems to be fueled by the U.S. government’s aggressive fiscal and monetary policies, and an increase in consumer spending as mobility restrictions are lifted. Unemployment rates between June 2020 and June 2021 decreased by 5.2%, while the demand for labor is increasing, coupled with increasing wages to incentivize Americans to rejoin the labor force. Schools and businesses are expected to fully reopen soon. In parallel, vaccination rates across the country and the world continue to rise, with full vaccination rates of 50% and 14.8% respectively.
However, it is not completely smooth sailing from here. According to M Capital Group, the main risks that threaten the continued growth of the U.S. economy are inflation, unsettled trade relations, and another wave of Covid-19 mutations that could shut down the world again. Have we learned from the past year of COVID-19 and adapted our economy accordingly?
“In order for the U.S. economy to continue growing, whether there is another wave or not, the U.S. needs to focus on diversifying supply chains, supporting business investment, and maintaining consumer spending,” says Grace Feeley, a research analyst at M Capital Group.
While the economic indicators are positive, the risks are coming closer to manifesting and threatening such growth. The new variants spreading throughout the world, Delta, Lambda, and Gamma, are vaccine-resistant and muddy the predictions made about the economy and health of the country. These variants bring back the feeling of uncertainty that has wreaked havoc not only on the stock market but the mindset of people around the world. MCG provides unique insight on how to mitigate these risks to possibly ensure a bright economic future.

SHIFTING (BEPS)
By: Harveer Singh
harveersinh@gmail.com
13. CONSIDER THIS
With changing business
models, globalisation,
elimination of trade barriers,
some of the international tax
rules are not working anymore.
Some companies are not
paying tax anywhere.
14. ALSO CONSIDER
A Purely Domestic company
v/s MNCs in terms of tax
minimization opportunity.
Large multinationals were
able to use mismatches in
domestic tax laws and gaps in
the international tax system to
dramatically reduce their
corporate taxes
15. BEPS is an effort by
OECD-G20 to modernise
international taxation
policies amongst developed
and developing economies
to reflect the changed and
ever changing reality.
16. MAGNITUDE..
Each country has a sovereign right to protect and
increase its Tax Base.
Due to the significant evolution of the economy that
is Digital economy and so on, the tax policy lags
behind and corporates exploits these loopholes.
(Double Non Taxation)
corporate income tax has a big role in public
finance of many developing countries.
The Loss of revenue is estimated to be around
$100-240 Bn.
17. IT CONTAINS..
BEPS project aims to fulfil G20-OECD's 15
points action plan on multifarious aspects of
international tax policy.
It includes 13 reports mostly related to
double taxation , double non-taxation,
Transfer Pricing (Earlier covered in the
class), Interest Deductions, information
sharing, storage based digital taxes etc.
It also looks at the nexus approach that is
linking tax benefits directly to R&D expenditure.
18. BEPS aims to complete (in 2016)
