    What Does The Digital Personal Data Protection Bill, 2023 Contain?

    After a long wait, the Digital Personal Data Protection Bill, 2023 was presented in the Lok Sabha by Union Communications, Electronics, and Information Technology Minister Ashwini Vaishnaw introduced. The bill, which brings India closer to having its first legislation that addresses citizens' privacy and establishing guidelines for how individuals' data can be used by private or government entities, was dissented by the opposition members, but the industry has welcomed the move. Manish Sehgal, Partner, Deloitte India, said: “The much-anticipated privacy bill (referred to as Digital Personal Data Protection Bill, 2023), was tabled in the Parliament. Once enacted, it will enable individuals (referred to as Data Principals) to govern their own personal (digital) data, and will drive enterprises (referred as Data Fiduciary) to process personal data of individuals in a lawful manner, for specific purposes only.” Sehgal added: in view of the bill’s extra-territorial coverage, enterprises based outside India serving individuals in India will also be expected to adhere to the provisions of this bill once enacted. Enterprises will have to review the current ways of working especially for the personal data of individuals such as their employees, customers, merchants, vendors, etc. to be able to honour the rights that individuals may exercise, such as the right to access, update, erase their personal data etc. Non-adherence of obligation listed in the bill may attract sanctions and commercial penalty as high as Rs 250 crore. Shahana Chatterji, Partner, Shardul Amarchand Mangaldas & Co says DPDP Bill strikes an important balance in protecting users’ rights and promoting innovation in digital businesses.

    Heatwaves Could Seriously Stunt India’s Economic Growth: Study

    Catch Dr Ramit Debnath, Inaugural Cambridge Zero Fellow, University of Cambridge in conversation with Business Today TV Managing Editor Siddharth Zarabi on a study by the University of Cambridge that states that heatwaves could seriously stunt India’s economic growth. According to the study, rising temperatures could cross the survivability limit for a healthy human by 2050 and have a massive impact on public health, food availability and socio-economic systems. The study warns that the Indian government is not taking this into consideration in its economic planning. April has already seen an orange warning being issued by the Indian Meteorological Department for six states. The IMD warned of serious heat conditions over Gangetic West Bengal, Bihar, Sikkim, Odisha, Jharkhand and Andhra Pradesh. This heat could even shrivel the Indian economy. A study by the Britain’s University of Cambridge has warned that these heatwaves are holding back the development of Asia's third-largest economy and the impact is not being measured by the Indian government in its economic or climate forecasts. The study warns about the damage to the high proportion of rural workers and labourers forced to work outside even as temperatures and humidity soar. The researchers measured the physical impact of last year's record-breaking 49 degrees Celsius heat on India's population and found that the country's population is among the most at risk of the effects of high heat, which is becoming more severe with climate change. Incredibly, India recorded 242 days of extreme weather conditions in the first ten months of 2022, making it nearly one extreme event daily. The study says that as much as 90% of India’s total area now lies in extreme heat danger zones. According to the study, Indian heatwaves could cross the survivability limit for a healthy human resting in the shade by 2050. Moreover, the heatwaves will impact labour productivity, economic growth and quality of life of around 310–480 million people. Estimates show a 15% decrease in outdoor working capacity during daylight hours due to extreme heat by 2050. The increased heat is expected to cost India 2.8% of its GDP by 2050 and an incredible 8.7% of its GDP by 2100.

    RBI Pauses Rate Hike After A Year! What Is There For Home Loan Borrowers?

    Many homebuyers who have been battling increasing home loan interest rates are relieved by the Central Bank of India's (RBI) decision to hold the repo rate constant at 6.5 percent in its first bimonthly monetary policy review of FY24 on Thursday.

How will things develop going forward for loan borrowers, especially those who have taken out home loans? Join BTTV's Managing Editor Siddharth Zarabi with Madan Sabnavis to know more.

    Overtightening & Fears Of Slower Growth Weigh On RBI

    The Reserve Bank of India on Thursday hit the pause button and decided to keep the key benchmark policy rate at 6.5 per cent even as inflation is trending above its tolerance level. The rate hike has been paused after six consecutive rate increases aggregating to 250 basis points since May 2022. Announcing the bi-monthly monetary policy, RBI Governor Shaktikanta Das said the Monetary Policy Committee will not hesitate to take action in the future. The policy stance has been maintained as “withdrawal of accommodation”. The central bank has also kept the standing deposit facility rate, marginal standing facility and bank rates unchanged at 6.25 per cent and 6.75 per cent respectively. The central bank has projected inflation to drop to 5.2 per cent for 2023-24. The central bank has also projected GDP growth for 2022-23 at 7 per cent and 6.5 per cent for 2023-24.

    Policy Tightening In Light Of U.S FED Rate Hike?

    What course of action will the RBI MPC take in the first policy meeting of this year and immediately after a capex Budget? While there is a higher likelihood of a modest 25 bps (or even lower) hike in the repo rate, the probability of a pause has also increased due to the last two monthly inflation prints and the relatively conservative borrowing projections for FY24. The headline CPI inflation dropped to 5.88% in November and further to 5.72% in December below the upper limit of the MPC tolerance band after staying above that level for ten consecutive months in the last calendar year. Further, the global inflation levels have also peaked with increased signs of slowdown and moderation in commodity prices, leading to major central banks curtailing the quantum of rate hikes to 25 bps from the earlier 50-75 bps. On the other hand, the rationale for going for another round of hikes is to anchor inflationary expectations, given that core inflation still continues to reign above 6 percent, and also stem the capital outflows which saw a spurt this January. While these data points may make it difficult for RBI to arrive at a decision, the prospects of a revision in monetary stance to neutral is strong.”
