Foreign exchange market modernisation prioritises delegated decisions, customer transparency, digital workflows, local-currency settlement and accountable risk management.
Foreign exchange market modernisation advances a facilitative, principles-based framework based on delegated decision-making by Authorised Dealers, risk-based reporting, and customer-centric service standards. Authorised Dealers must apply clear internal policies, avoid unnecessary documentation, disclose charges, timelines and grievance mechanisms, and ensure consistent treatment of comparable transactions. Local-currency settlement requires viable trade corridors, competitive hedging, correspondent relationships and robust AML/CFT controls. Digital workflows, electronic trading and reporting infrastructure should improve transparency and resilience, while automated tools remain subject to explainability, review and data-protection safeguards.

Sugar price containment measures restrict stockholding, permit duty-free imports, and strengthen inventory verification to deter hoarding.
Sugar price containment measures include stock limits for dealers, consumption-based inventory restrictions for bulk consumers, duty-free raw sugar imports, and physical verification of mill stocks to prevent hoarding and artificial scarcity. Price increases are attributed to lower domestic output, festive demand, crop damage, tighter global supplies, and speculation rather than sugar diversion for ethanol. Earlier crushing is advised to improve seasonal availability, while the ethanol programme supports management of sugar surpluses, mill liquidity, and timely sugarcane payments.

Cross-border insolvency enforcement constrains asset recovery as Evergrande liquidation, founder asset confiscation, and audit-related claims continue.
Evergrande's insolvency process involves liquidation proceedings for its mainland property-development unit and its Hong Kong-listed holding company. Cross-border recovery is constrained by separate Hong Kong and mainland China legal systems, particularly because most operational assets are located in mainland China. Liquidators are pursuing asset-tracing and recovery measures against the founder and connected persons, as well as claims concerning pre-collapse audits. Investigations identified revenue overstatement through manipulated financial data. Creditor recoveries are expected to be limited due to substantial liabilities and constraints on asset realisation.

Foreign exchange reserves rose through higher currency assets and gold holdings amid measures to attract external forex inflows.
India's foreign exchange reserves increased during the reporting week, led by higher foreign currency assets and gold reserves. Foreign currency assets include the dollar-value effects of movements in non-US currencies held as reserves. Special drawing rights declined marginally, while the reserve position with the International Monetary Fund increased marginally. Concessional swap arrangements formed part of measures to attract foreign-exchange inflows, while earlier reserve movements were linked to rupee pressure and dollar-sale intervention in the foreign-exchange market.

Incremental tariff recovery aligns airport user charges with completed infrastructure, preventing passengers from funding non-operational capital projects prematurely.
User development fees and airport tariffs for Bengaluru International Airport have been revised for the April 2026 to March 2031 control period. The incremental Average Revenue Requirement framework excludes costs of identified high-value capital projects from tariffs until the relevant assets are completed, commissioned and available for users. Incremental tariff recovery may begin only upon operational availability, aligning charges with infrastructure use, reducing premature recovery risk for passengers and airlines, and encouraging timely completion of major capital works.

Predicate-offence dependency limits retrospective addition of old FIRs to preserve money-laundering proceedings after the original scheduled offence is closed.
Predicate-offence dependency under the Prevention of Money Laundering Act requires an ECIR to rest on a subsisting scheduled offence. Closure of the FIR forming its basis through an accepted cancellation report prevents continuation of money-laundering proceedings unless that closure is overturned. A previously registered FIR cannot be belatedly added merely to preserve an existing ECIR and coercive powers. Where statutory requirements are met, an independently registered ECIR may be required. Expansion of an ECIR cannot rest solely on tenuous factual links between successive disputes.

For exports to countries outside the Asian Clearing Union, export contracts and invoices may be denominated in Indian rupees or any foreign currency, replacing the earlier general requirement that export earnings be received in a freely convertible currency. The applicable requirements vary according to the destination country.

Sugar supply pressures drive festive-season price increases as imports, stockholding limits and ethanol diversion shape market conditions.
Sugar prices in Bengal have risen sharply ahead of the festive season, with higher prices also affecting jaggery and other sugar-derived products. Supply constraints, mill stock releases, lower production in Brazil, ethanol diversion and possible hoarding have been identified as contributing factors. Raw-sugar imports have been permitted to augment availability, while stockholding restrictions limit inventories of specified bulk consumers. Lower projected closing stocks and possible future production effects from El Nino may sustain pressure on sugar availability and increase costs for sweetmeat producers.

Foreign currency inflows and FCNR(B) deposits supported rupee sentiment, while oil prices and geopolitical risks constrained currency strength.
The rupee strengthened marginally against the US dollar as the dollar index softened, but elevated crude oil prices, geopolitical uncertainty, reduced foreign participation and net foreign equity outflows constrained currency sentiment. RBI measures to attract foreign currency inflows, including FCNR(B) deposits, were expected to generate substantial inflows, although these had not produced meaningful rupee strength. Energy-market disruption and restrictions on fuel exports through the Strait of Hormuz added to external-sector pressures.

Provincial alcohol sales restrictions remain subject to economic impact assessment under proposed bilateral trade agreement negotiations.
Provincial control over alcohol distribution remains distinct from federal trade-making authority. Quebec retains authority over whether United States alcohol is offered through its government-controlled liquor distribution system, despite lacking a veto over a bilateral trade agreement. Federal requests to restore United States alcohol to retail shelves cannot compel provincial action. Proposed trade commitments also concern restrictions on United States agricultural products and Canada's dairy import regime, which applies lower tariffs within designated import volumes and higher duties beyond those volumes.

Setting Up of Industries

Planning Commission set up an Inter-Ministerial Task Group for Redressal of Growing Regional Imbalances in August 2004. The Task Group identified 170 districts on 17 chosen parameters for backwardness including preponderance of agricultural labourers in the population, per capita credit-deposits, infrastructure and institutional facilities and percentage of Scheduled caste and Scheduled Tribe as overall proxy for regional backwardness. The Backward Regions Grant Fund (BRGF) was launched in August 2006. The programme covering 272 districts continued during the 11th Five Year Plan.  As exercise is being undertaken to restructure BRGF including identification of backward areas for the 12th Five Year Plan. No study has been conducted to identify industrially backward region of the States for their development.

State-wise details of industries set up  as reflected in Industrial Investment Intentions in terms of IEMs filed, Letters of Intent Issued and Direct Industrial Licence granted during the last three years in the country is at Annexure 1(A&B).

 Details of financial Assistance provided under Central Capital Investment Subsidy scheme, Central Interest Subsidy Scheme and Central Comprehensive Insurance Scheme  to the Special Category States of Jammu & Kashmir, Himachal Pradesh  and Utarakhand are in Annexure 2. From 2002-03 to 2011-12, employment generated was 68,393 in Jammu & Kashmir, 1,05,452 in Himachal Pradesh  and 3,18,890 in Utarakhand. Requests from other states have been received for similar packages, but it has been the consistent stand of the Government not to announce any fresh package in view of the fact that the above mentioned special category States have adverse geographical locations due to hilly and remote terrain and other specifications. There is no proposal to extend any such incentives to other States.
