According to media reports, the number of non banking financial
companies which are partnering with the banks under Reserve Bank of
India’s loan co-origination scheme are going up gradually. The
development comes as liquidity tightened in the banking system which
made the non-banking financial companies to explore cheaper routes for
raising of funds.
The 15th Finance Commission chairman expressed concerns over private
investments in the country that have remained subdued till date. He
further underlined the importance of pursuing land and labour reforms as
it would help boost the growth prospects of the country.
According to Reserve Bank of India (RBI), non banking financial
companies with an asset size of more than Rs. 5,000 crore need to appoint
a chief risk officer. The objective of the move is to tighten regulations and
increase risk management practices following a series of defaults at a
major leasing and financial services company. RBI mandated that the chief
risk officer should be appointed for a fixed period of time and cannot be
removed without the approval of the board.
As per reports, the Department for Promotion of Industry and Internal
Trade has proposed relaxation in the income tax laws pertaining to sale of
residential properties and carrying forward of losses for start up entities.
The objective of the move is to help start ups in raising of funds. According
to the new norms, entrepreneurs often sell their residential properties to
support their business and the proceeds on sale of such residential
properties will be exempted from capital gains tax if they are used to fund
a start up.
