The government is considering a simple and streamlined set of norms for all kinds of overseas investments into capital markets, but wants such foreign investors to undergo a stricter scrutiny process. The move could facilitate direct investments by both individual and institutional entities abroad into Indian equity and debt markets, as against the current practice of coming through FIIs, venture capital and private equity funds.
Terming existing corporate laws as complex and not conducive to overseas M&A by domestic firms, CII today asked the government to facilitate such deals by easing regulatory norms to increase the presence of Indian firms in global markets.

The SC last week stated that in a case of compensation for the accidental death of a person who is yet to retire from his job, the future salary increments and pension benefits should be computed to arrive at the final award. It quashed the order of the Karnataka HC as “perverse” for not considering the future prospects of the deceased person and reducing the damages. The motor accident claims tribunal had awarded Rs 14 lakh to the dependents of the person, aged 53, who died in a road accident. The high court reduced it to Rs 11 lakh.The SC raised the compensation to Rs 18 lakh in the case, K R Madhusudhan vs Administrative Officer.
Delay in filing a first information report (FIR) of an accident is no ground to deny compensation under the Motor Vehicles Act, the Supreme Court stated in the case, Ravi vs Badrinarayan. In this case, an 8-year-old boy was hit by a motor vehicle and he was taken to the hospital by his father and others. The report was filed after three months, as the child suffered severe permanent injuries. He lost control of his kidney function. The motor vehicles tribunal and the Rajasthan high court, however, dismissed the claim for compensation on the ground that the FIR was not filed immediately. Reversing this view, the Supreme Court awarded him Rs 2.5 lakh. It said: “Knowing the Indian conditions as they are, we cannot expect a common man to first rush to the police station immediately after an accident. Human nature and family responsibilities occupy the mind of kith and kin to such an extent that they give more importance to get the victim treated rather than to rush to the police station. Under such circumstances, they are not expected to act mechanically with promptitude in lodging the FIR.”
