(i) The extent of applicability of principles of natural justice depends upon the nature of inquiry, the consequences that may visit a person after such inquiry from out of the decision pursuant to such inquiry. The right to fair hearing is a guaranteed right. Every person before an Authority exercising the adjudicatory powers has a right to know the evidence to be used against him. Dhakeswari Cotton Mills Ltd. vs. CIT 26 ITR 775 (SC) followed; (ii) However, the principles of natural justice do not require supply of documents upon which no reliance has been placed by the Authority to set the law into motion. Supply of relied on documents based on which the law has been set into motion would meet the requirements of principles of natural justice; (iii) The concept of fairness is not a one way street. The principles of natural justice are not intended to operate as roadblocks to obstruct statutory inquiries. Duty of adequate disclosure is only an additional procedural safeguard in order to ensure the attainment of the fairness and it has its own limitations. The extent of its applicability depends upon the statutory framework;
Reserve Bank of India has sent show cause notices to over 12 banks for alleged violation of foreign exchange rules in sale of derivative products, banking industry sources said. Sources said notices were sent to banks for alleged violation of derivat
It has been brought to our notice that since co-operative credit societies are not even sub-members of clearing houses, members of such co-operative credit societies who do not have bank accounts have difficulties in collection of account payee cheques drawn in their name. With a view to mitigate the difficulties faced by the members of co-operative credit societies in collection of account payee cheques, it is further clarified that collecting banks may consider collecting account payee cheques drawn for an amount not exceeding Rs.50,000/- to the account of their customers who are co-operative credit societies, if the payees of such cheques are the constituents of such co-operative credit societies. While collecting the cheques as aforesaid, banks should have a clear representation in writing given by the co-operative credit societies concerned that, upon realization, the proceeds of the cheques will be credited only to the account of the member of the co-operative credit society who is the payee named in the cheque. This shall, however, be subject to the fulfillment of the requirements of the provisions of Negotiable Instruments Act, 1881, including Section 131 thereof.
It has been clarified that the term “Original investment” means the entire amount brought in as FDI. It has further been clarified that the lock-in-period of three years will be applied from the date of receipt of each installment/tranche of FDI or from the date of completion of minimum capitalization, whichever is later. This was necessary as a number of queries had been received in regard to the coverage of these terms.
As per extant FDI policy, shares can be issued to a non-resident against receipt of funds through normal banking channels. If the funds are not received through normal banking channels, prior approval of the Government is required for such issue. The only exception to the above condition is the situation where shares are to be issued against External Commercial Borrowings (ECBs) and/or royalty payments (including lump-sum technical know-how fees). In such cases, shares can be issued under the automatic route without funds being received specifically for the purpose of issues of shares.

With the passing of this Act, a new hybrid entity, incorporating the features of both- a body corporate, as well as a traditional partnership-can be formed for the purposes of undertaking business in India. The LLP has not yet been recognized under FDI policy. The LLP structure lies between that of a company where FDI is permitted and that of a partnership, where it is generally not permitted. Key features of an LLP, as well as a comparison between the other existing ownership structures, are provided in the Annexure.
