Budget 2018: Agriculture sector to get top priority, says Arun Jaitley 


In front of the Union Budget, Finance Minister Arun Jaitley on Sunday said the horticulture area was the best need for the administration on the grounds that the nation's monetary development isn't "reasonable and impartial" unless the advantages are "clear and obvious" in the homestead part.
In this way, the administration's need is to guarantee the additions achieve the ranchers and the development is noticeable even in the homestead area, he said at an occasion here.
As per most recent information from the Central Statistics Office (CSO), the nation's monetary development is relied upon to ease back to a four-year low of 6.5 for each penny in FY18, the least under the Modi-drove government, chiefly because of poor execution of agribusiness and assembling segments. The CSO has pegged cultivate and united area development to ease back to 2.1 for every penny in the current financial year from 4.9 for every penny in the former year. "India is one of the quickest developing economies on the planet and the development is profiting individuals in various divisions. Be that as it may, most extreme populace is subject to agri-part and unless the increases are clear and apparent, the (financial) development isn't legitimate and evenhanded," Jaitley said.

Govt mulls allowing airlines with negative net worth to bid for Air India

The government is likely to relax the eligibility criteria for Air India disinvestment by allowing airlines with negative net worth to bid. However, non-airline companies may be told to satisfy minimum net worth conditions to prove their financial strength. The evaluation committee of Air India, after discussions with the Ministry of Civil Aviation, had suggested that all bidders be mandated to fulfil a minimum net worth criterion, a source said. However, when the Core Group of Secretaries on Disinvestment (CGD) met over the last two weeks to finalise the bidding norms, some members pointed out that setting high net worth as an eligibility condition would block the prospects of many airline companies. In fact, the difference in opinion between the two government bodies has led to a delay in the announcement of the expression of interest.
