Attention of Authorized Dealer Category – I (AD Category – I) banks is invited to the fact that the requests received from the exporters through their AD branches for set-off of export receivables against import payables are considered by the Reserve Bank of India. As a measure of further liberalization, it has been decided to delegate power to AD Category – I banks to deal with the cases of “set-off” of export receivables against import payables, subject to following terms and conditions:
Those RRBs which meet the access criteria requirements for centralised payment systems as prescribed in our circular DPSS.CO.OD. 494 / 04.04.009 / 2011-12 dated September 21, 2011 and have the necessary financial, technical and operational resources to obtain and maintain direct NEFT membership may, if they so choose, become direct member of NEFT.
It has come to our notice that some banks insist on the signatures of both the depositors to allow repayment of money in fixed/term deposits, though the deposit account is opened with operating instructions (sometimes called ‘repayment instructions’), ‘Either or Survivor’ or ‘Former or Survivor’. Such insistence on the signatures of both the depositors has the effect of making the mandate given by the depositors redundant. This, in turn, results in unjustified delays and allegations of poor customer service.
It has been observed that overseas foreign exchange trading has been introduced on a number of internet /electronic trading portals luring the residents with offers of guaranteed high returns based on such forex trading. The advertisements by these internet / online portals exhort people to trade in forex by way of paying the initial investment amount in Indian Rupees.
Ministry of Finance Increases the Current Limit of Foreign Institutional Investors’ (FIIS) Investments by US$ 5 Billion Each in Government Securities and Corporate Bonds Raising the Cap to US$ 15 Billion and to US$ 20 Billion Respectively
The government today approved amendments to the PFRDA Bill 2011 while agreeing to the proposed 26% foreign investment in the pension sector but refrained from providing assured returns to subscribers in the proposed law. The government had decided not to mention FDI cap in the legislation itself for retaining the flexibility of changing it through an executive order.
Reserve Bank hereby directs that with effect from April 1, 2012, RRBs should not make payment of cheques/drafts/pay orders/banker’s cheques bearing that date or any subsequent date, if they are presented beyond the period of three months from the date of such instrument.
It has now been decided, in consultation with the Government, to treat the issue / transfer of ‘participating interest/ rights’ in oil fields to a non- resident as Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) transaction under the extant FDI policy and the FEMA regulations. Accordingly, these transactions have to be reported as FDI transactions in terms of the provisions of Regulations 9 and 10 of the Foreign Exchange Management (Transfer of Issue of Security by a Person Resident outside India) Regulations, 2000 notified vide Notification No. FEMA 20/2000-RB dated May 3, 2000, as amended from time to time read with A.P. (DIR Series) Circular No.63 dated April 22, 2009 — A.P. (DIR Series) Circular No. 45
On a review of developments in the global financial markets and the fact that domestic importers are experiencing difficulties in raising Trade Credit within the existing all-in-cost ceiling, it has been decided to revise the all-in-cost ceiling for Trade Credits as under:
Keeping in view the tight liquidity conditions and widening of credit spreads due to recent developments in international financial markets, it has been decided to increase the ceiling rate on export credit in foreign currency by banks to LIBOR plus 350 basis points from the present ceiling rate of LIBOR plus 200 basis points with immediate effect, till March 31, 2012, subject to the express condition that the banks will not levy any other charges viz. service charge, management charge etc except for recovery towards out of pocket expenses incurred. Similar changes may be effected in interest rates in cases where EURO LIBOR / EURIBOR has been used as the benchmark.The rates of interest applicable have been incorporated in the Annex to the directive DBOD.DIR.No.51/04.02.001/2011-12 dated November 15, 2011 enclosed to this circular.
