This is important. Remember Gensol? . More than 2,000 employees could get tax notices because Gensol didn't deposit the TDS that was cut every month from their salary. This is a repeat of Kingfisher Airlines and Byju's. Courts have ruled that tax dept shouldn't go behind the.

Now, India working on strategies to localise rare earths production and become self reliant. @kartik_ayaan and I have captured this in our report here - . Hopefully, we learn from our past mistakes this time. @livemint.

Then how does India find itself in this rare earth crisis that was anticipated over 15 years ago?. Indian industry was smothered by China's scale. The Chinese government's support - as it happens in many sectors - made their rare earth products much cheaper than anyone else.

IREL Limited, which was set up in 1950 to produce thorium for nuclear energy, had also ventured into rare earths. But the company had to shut its rare earths division in 2004 due to lack of business. Chinese suppliers had priced the Indian company out of market. That wasn't the.

With much chatter on rare earths, one might be wondering what is this new crisis that has suddenly cropped up. What if I told you that the Indian govt had anticipated this problem as early as in 2010?. Back then, India was the second largest maker of rare earths behind China.

You won't believe what happened at the 2019 ODI World Cup final.

What's with the headline, people?

Numerous interviews with founders, industry executives, foreign investors and consultants over the years have made one thing clear to me. Policy uncertainty is the biggest bugbear for businesses and investors in India. A smart investor will any day choose a govt with a track.

The leader of opposition is openly questioning elections in one of India's largest states. He's backed up his skepticism with genuine anomalies in the official data. This is serious! Fair elections are the basis of a robust democracy. The government and the election commission

But here's where things get complicated. China has started granting licenses to other Western countries but all Indian applications are still on hold. Indian auto industry says that the applications of multinational companies like Bosch and Continental have been approved for.
