Union Cabinet approved notification of Preferential Treatment by India to Least Developed Countries (LDCs) in Trade in Services in the WTO 

The Union Cabinet gave its approval for notification of Preferential Treatment by India to Least Developed Countries (LDCs) in Trade in Services in the WTO.
India will notify preferential treatment to the LDCs in Trade in Services in respect of:
1. Article XVI of the GATS (Market Access);
2. Technical Assistance and capacity building; and
3. Waiver of visa fees for LDC applicants applying for Indian Business and Employment visas.
The preferences will be bound with validity for 15 years from the date of notification by India .
A generous offer in Trade in Services by India should win the country goodwill of LDCs. India has already made a very generous offer to LDCs in the area of Trade in Goods in the form of a Duty Free Tariff Preference (DFTF) scheme. An equally generous offer in Trade in Services will help India preserve and consolidate its leadership position on LDC issues. Further, given the development dimension of the Doha Round of the WTO, it is important that India makes liberal offers to LDCs in Trade in Services also. Moreover, several of the LDCs are located in South Asia while majority are in Africa with whom India maintains special relations.
India’s preferential treatment to the LDCs in Trade in Services would involve a cost of Rs. 6.5 crore annually on account of waiver of visa fees and Rs. 2.5 to 3 crore, per annum, for providing training in management and technical consultancy courses to LDC applicants. As regards offers und

Introduction of Gold Monetization Schemes

Gold Monetization Scheme

The Union Cabinet chaired by Hon’ble Prime Minister, Shri Narendra Modi gave its approval for introduction of Gold Monetization Schemes (GMS), as announced in the Union Budget 2015-16.
Objective of the Gold Monetization Schemes
The objective of introducing the modifications in the schemes is to make the existing schemes more effective and to broaden the ambit of the existing schemes from merely mobilizing gold held by households and institutions in the country to putting this gold into productive use. The long-term objective of the scheme is to reduce the country’s reliance on the import of gold to meet domestic demand.
Benefits of the scheme
GMS would benefit the Indian gems and jewellery sector which is a major contributor to India’s exports. The mobilized gold will also supplement RBI’s gold reserves and will help in reducing the government’s borrowing cost.
The revamped Gold Deposit Scheme (GDS) and the Gold Metal Loan (GML) Scheme involves changes in the scheme guidelines only. The risk of gold price changes will be borne by the Gold Reserve Fund that is being created. The benefit to the Government is in terms of reduction in the cost of borrowing, which will be transferred to the Gold Reserve Fund.
The scheme will help in mobilizing the large amount of gold lying as an idle asset with households, trusts and various institutions in India and will provide a fillip to the gems and jewellery sector. Over the course of time this is also expected to reduce the country’s dependence on the import of gold. The new scheme consists of the revamped GDS and a revamped GML Scheme.
For tenure, interest rate and redemption conditions under revamped Gold Deposit Scheme andGold Metal Loan scheme, please refer to the link mentioned below:
