• According to an official statement, the Union cabinet has approved the
signing and ratification of protocol amending the double taxation
avoidance agreement with China. The protocol will also include updating
the existing provisions for exchange of information to the latest
international standards and will incorporate changes required to
implement treaty related minimum standards under the Action reports of
Base Erosion & Profit shifting (BEPS) Project.
• The Reserve Bank of India has raised the forex futures trading limit to
$100 million. The central bank expects that increase in the upper limit
would lure business away from regional financial hubs as it is expected to
boost daily trading volumes on domestic exchanges. The move will also
create arbitrage opportunity between onshore and offshore markets.
Non-resident Indians as well as high networth individuals will be
encouraged to take positions in the currency futures market.
• The government is considering finalising a policy to scrap commercial
vehicles that are more than 15 years old and is proposing tax incentives
from both the Centre and states. However, this proposal would require
the approval of the Goods and Services Tax (GST) Council. The policy will
likely be known as the Voluntary Vehicle Fleet Modernisation Programme
and is expected to push 28 million vehicles off the roads.
• Cadila Healthcare announced growth in consolidated net profit by
67.73% to Rs. 543.3 crore in the quarter ended Dec 2017 as against net
profit of Rs. 323.9 crore in the quarter ended Dec 2016. Revenue from
operations grew 38.63% to Rs. 3,191.8 crore in Dec 2017 from Rs. 2,302.3
crore in Dec 2016.
• Bharat Forge announced increase in net profit by 77.39% to Rs. 2.28
billion in the quarter ended Dec 2017 as compared with net profit of Rs.

stood at Rs. 13.90 billion.

• Asian markets witnessed a mixed trend after positive impact from better
than expected growth in China’s exports in Jan 2018 was neutralised by
concerns over increasing U.S. bond yield and imminent rate hike by the
U.S. Federal Reserve. Today (As of Feb 8), Asian markets opened lower
following losses in the Wall Street. Both Nikkei and Hang Seng were
trading down 2.42% and 2.83% (as at 8.a.m. IST).

earnings and economic data as investors showed concerned over rising
inflation that pushed U.S. 10-year treasury yield higher.
