Below is an extract of significant tax proposals by Bihar, Chhattisgarh, Delhi, Goa, Himachal Pradesh, Jammu and Kashmir, Maharashtra, Meghalaya, Rajasthan and Uttarakhand States in their State Budget announced in March, 2011:
The CBI today informed the Supreme Court that telecom companies – Swan Telecom and Loop Telecom – were used as front companies by established telecom players to get 2G spectrum illegally during the tenure of former Telecom Minister A Raja. The agency, which filed a status report in a sealed envelope before a bench of Justices G S Singhvi and A K Ganguly, said Raja will face charges of “cheating, forgery, and corruption”.
With the telecom sector becoming a potential security threat due to use of imported equipment, the government has proposed that service providers employ only Indian nationals in sensitive positions like Chief Technical Officer and Chief Information Security Officer.
The Telecom Ministry will take a final decision on 2G spectrum pricing and on those holding airwaves beyond contracted limit of 6.2 Mhz, based on recommendations of TRAI, within next three months before seeking Telecom Commission’s approval. “Decision on 2G spectrum pricing is expected in next 3 months. DoT internal committee is finalising it. After we get it we will send the same to Telecom Commission,” Department of Telecommunications (DoT) Secretary R Chandrasekhar told reporters here.
The Supreme Court today allowed a two-day extension to the CBI to file on April 2 its charge sheet against former Telecom Minister A Raja and others in the 2G spectrum allocation case even as the agency said it was readying an 80,000-page document for submission.
After a long wait by the industry, the government is likely to sanction tomorrow additional Rs 7,000 crore for interest subsidy to the textile units for modernisation. The proposal is expected to come up before the Cabinet Committee on Economic Affairs, sources said.
Parliament’s Public Accounts Committee has summoned corporate lobbyist Niira Radia and Tata Group Chairperson Ratan Tata on April 4 to discuss their role in the 2-G Spectrum allocation case. Sources said the PAC will meet on April 4 and 5 to discuss the 2-G spectrum allocation case which had led to the resignation of Telecom Minister A Raja. He was later arrested and is still in custody.

Parliament’s Public Accounts Committee chairperson M M Joshi on Thursday indicated that overlapping of functions of the panel and the JPC into 2G spectrum scam was not a matter of concern and his powers went beyond the CAG report. In an interaction with the media, Joshi said the Public Accounts Committee has a “constitutional mandate” and its functions extend to areas other than CAG reports.
