Steps taken by RBI and Government in last few years to curb NPA
Government has launched Mission Indradhanush to make the working of public sector bank more transparent and professional in order to curb the menace of NPA in future.
Government has also proposed to introduce Bankruptcy code which will make it easier for banks to Recover the loans from the debtors.
RBI introduced number of measures in last few years which include:
Tightening the Corporate Debt Restructuring (CDR) mechanism,
Setting up a Joint Lenders’ Forum, prodding banks to disclose the real picture of bad loans, asking them to increase provisioning for stressed assets,
Introducing a 5:25 scheme where loans are to be amortized over 25 years with refinancing option after every five years, and
Empowering them to take majority control in defaulting companies under the Strategic Debt Restructuring (SDR) scheme

CURRENTS AFFAIRS OF ENERGY TOPIC OF GS PAPER 3.

Mains Paper 3| Energy

Prelims: Draft NEP, Niti Aayog



Mains level: This article discusses the proposal of aligning energy prices with international rates and also the draft NEP.

News

Context

A draft national energy policy proposing aligning energy prices with international rates will be put up for the approval of the Cabinet. 

Impact

If approved, energy prices across sectors would become market-driven and subsides would be limited to identified beneficiaries via direct benefit transfer, much on the lines of the LPG subsidy. 

Background

The government think tank Niti Aayog in June released a draft National Energy Policy (NEP), on which it had been working since 2015.

Prime Minister had chaired interministerial consultations on the policy after the coal ministry expressed reservations over market-driven prices that would pose a threat to the monopoly and margins of Coal India. 

Draft NEP: Highlights

The policy will help India integrate with the global energy world without compromising on the energy needs of the poorest of the poor, who will continue to get subsidy on all forms of energy directly into their bank accounts through direct benefit transfer. 

The outward-looking policy is against any kind of subsidies at the production and distribution levels as it distorts the system. 

Instead, it has strongly vouched for DBT as the technological platform to transfer subsidies to the poor after the success of LPG.

JOIN 🔜 @economyupsc

In its draft policy, Niti Aayog said India’s energy demand was likely to soar around three times by 2040, leading to increase in overall primary energy imports.

 It had also made a case for a single regulator to govern India’s energy market to make ‘India’s economy energy-ready’ by 2040.

JOIN 🔜 @economyupsc

The NEP will replace the Integrated Energy Policy of the UPA regime and lay the road map for government push towards clean energy and reducing fuel import.

JOIN 🔜 @economyupsc

 According to the draft NEP, the period 2017-2040 is expected to witness a quantum leap in the uptake of renewable energy, drastic reduction in energy intensity, doubling of per-capita energy consumption and tripling of per-capita electricity consumption.

Tax buoyancy is an indicator to measure efficiency and responsiveness of revenue mobilization in response to growth in the Gross domestic product or National income. A tax is said to be buoyant if the tax revenues increase more than proportionately in response to a rise in national income or output.

What is NPA?
The assets of the banks which don’t perform (that is – don’t bring any return) are called Non Performing Assets (NPA) or bad loans. Bank’s assets are the loans and advances given to customers. If customers don’t pay either interest or part of principal or both, the loan turns into bad loan.
According to RBI, terms loans on which interest or instalment of principal remain overdue for a period of more than 90 days from the end of a particular quarter is called a Non-performing Asset.
However, in terms of Agriculture / Farm Loans; the NPA is defined as under: For short duration crop agriculture loans such as paddy, Jowar, Bajra etc. if the loan (installment / interest) is not paid for 2 crop seasons, it would be termed as a NPA. For Long Duration Crops, the above would be 1 Crop season from the due date.

Stressed assets (NPAs or bad debt)
Stressed assets (NPAs or bad debt) in the banking system have reached unacceptably
high levels and hence, urgent measures were required for their speedy resolution.
Therefore, the government considered it necessary to make provisions in the Banking
Regulation Act, 1949 for authorizing the Reserve Bank of India to issue directions to any
banking company or banking companies to effectively use the provisions of the
Insolvency and Bankruptcy Code, 2016 for timely resolution of stressed assets.
•
Background:
The 2017 bill gives powers to the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) to ask any bank to initiate
insolvency proceedings and give directions for resolution of stressed assets. The RBI
could also be empowered to issue other directions for resolution, appoint or approve for
appointment, authorities or committees to advise the banking companies for stressed
asset resolution.

GS paper 3 UPSC

Mains Paper 3: Economy | Mobilization of resources

From UPSC perspective, the following things are important:

Prelims level: GST

Mains level: All aspects related to implementation and working of GST (A question was asked in Mains 2017 on it)

Context

Problems associated with GST

The introduction of the Goods and Services Tax (GST) raised much hope that it would herald the emergence of a ‘good and simple tax’ with ‘one nation, one market, one tax’There has been considerable concern with the new tax, both in its structure and operational details, including the ease of paying the tax and filing returnsTrade and industry have been grappling with the problem of payment, filing the returns and claiming input tax credit, and exporters have been facing liquidity crises

History of GST

GST is a standard policy recommendation for every country going in for the structural adjustment programme of the International Monetary FundThe GST has taken centre-stage in many countries and is considered important in view of the competitive reduction in corporation tax rates due to high mobility of capitalOf over 165 countries which have adopted GST in one form or another, only five have repealed it (Belize, Ghana, Grenada, Malta and Vietnam), but have reintroduced the tax later

Desirable features of GST

It is important not to have too low thresholdsReasonably high thresholds will reduce the compliance burden to a large number of small businesses without much impact on revenueIn developing countries, a threshold closer to $100,000 would eliminate 75% of the taxpayers with a revenue loss of less than 4%

2. GST should have fewer rates

Multiple rates create classification problems, are harder to administer and would require the general rate of tax to be higherIt would also invite a lot of lobbying by special interest groups

3. It is important to prepare well before the plunge

Most countries take at least two years to prepare for the introduction of reform to ensure a smooth transitionThis is particularly necessary for developing and testing the technology platform, educating the tax collectors and taxpayers and to avoid any anomalies in the structure of the tax

Indian version of GST

Given that the reform had to be evolved by taking into account the views of 29 States, two Union Territories with legislatures and the Union government, compromises are inevitableIt is impossible to expect the structure of the tax to be idealSome bad initial features may be an essential compromise to get the tax accepted in the first placeHaving four tax rates and three rates of cesses should have been avoidedIt enormously complicates the technology platform to ensure input tax credit mechanism

Way Forward

Problems of transition to a major tax reform are unavoidable and most countries go through thisAll traders, in one way or the other, are being brought into the formal sector which would hurt some of themIt appears desirable to move immediately towards three slabs with the final goal of reducing the slabs to two
and to fix the threshold at ₹50 lakh.

Blue Economy” has emerged as a term referring to a healthy ocean, supporting higher productivity.

The current focus is confined to marine products, including minerals, as if this is all it concerns.

The concept of blue economy is much broader and encompasses even maritime activities, such as shipping services.
