Taxes leading to reduced gdp from mining sanjay pattnaikshiva rajan
Mining involves numerous stakeholders, and hence, its revival depends on strong coordination not only between miners and the government, but also among the state and central governments.
Foremost of all, the annual cap of 30 MT imposed by the Supreme Court needs to be removed to allow the industry to grow.
India has the highest tax rates on minerals in the world. Effective tax-rate, the ratio of value of all amounts paid to the government to value of profits before taxes, is approximately 69% for operating mines in India compared to resource-rich nations like Canada (34%), Australia (40%), and South Africa (40%).
As per industry reports, the rare earth industry in India is underused and lies wasted. The Indian Rare Earth Industry is worth Rs. 90,000 crore of annual turnover.
As per estimates by Beach Minerals Producers Association, the industry can net a capital employment of about Rs 121,000 crore.
The rare earths found in India are one of the most significant ones. Collectively called Beach Sand Minerals (BSM), they include Ilmenite, Sillimanite, Garnet, Zircon, Monazite and Rutile and amount for almost 35 per cent of the world’s total beach sand mineral deposits.

2. The transfer of Tuticorin collector Ashish
Kumar is often rumored to have been a
forced move by VV Mineral’s founder,
Vaikundarajan. However, there is no
evidence to suggest that the sand
mining baron has anything to with it.

3. This, however, is not
the only case where
Vaikundarajan is
being accused of
wrongdoing. VV
Minerals was founded
in 1989, until recently,
it came to limelight
for illegal sand
mining.

4. Following this allegation in September 2013,
the then chief minister Jayalalithaa ordered
a ban on beach sand mining in five districts
of the state. A special team headed by
senior IAS officer Gagandeep Singh Bedi
was set up to investigate the matter.

5. Geologist Victor Rajamanickam argues
that beach sand minerals worth Rs. 1 lakh
crore have been illegally exported out of
the country. Such allegations against a
company that has won national awards for
its contribution to export business are truly
surprising. Moreover, these allegations are
not supported by evidence or have been
affirmed by the investigating committee.

6. VV Minerals holds legal documents
authorizing the company to mine and
export monazite. These documents were
issues by the Tamil Nadu Geology and
Mining Department. How is it then that the
sand mining operations of VV Minerals
are deemed illegal? Asks Vaikundarajan.

7. With the ongoing
investigation, VV
Mineral
Vaikundarajan puts
his faith in the
judiciary and believes
that his company will
come clean. He has
openly offered
complete support to
the investigation
committee.
