Eight Indian MFs in World's 25 best funds in a decade The Economic Times: Eight domestic equity mutual fund schemes, including SBI Magnum Contra , HDFC Equity and Reliance Growth , are among the 25 best-performing open-ended equity funds in the world of the last decade, according to investment research firm Morningstar. These funds benefited from the 10-fold growth in total value of India's stock markets, led by a robust performance of one of the fastest growing economies in the world. The eight funds returned 31% to 38% on a compounded basis in the past decade. The Sensex returned 17.8% on a compounded basis during the 10 years. Russia's RTS fetched 28.6% and Indonesia's JSX Composite gave 24.4% returns during the period. Twelve equity mutual fund schemes from India figure among the 25 best-performing open-ended equity funds in the world over 15 years, Morningstar said in a note. "Russian and Indonesian stock markets have performed better than ours in the last 10 and 15 years, but Indian equity funds crowd the list because the other countries did not have enough funds to capture those returns," said Dhruva Raj Chatterji, senior research analyst, Morningstar India. India's total stock market capitalisation grew to over $1.6 trillion in December 2010 from $148 billion early last decade. But no Indian fund made it to the list of best performing funds in the last five years or in 2010. Chinafocussed funds swamped the list for the top-25 performers during the last five years. The Sensex fetched 16.9% returns in the five years to December 2010 and 17.4% in 2010. China's Shanghai composite rose 19.3% in the five years ending December 2010; in 2010 it had fallen 14.3%. The worst performing market in 2010 within Asia was China, whose benchmark Shanghai Composite index closed in the red, falling by more than 14% after registering an 80% gain in 2009, the Morningstar note said.

Economy & Investment India will be 2nd biggest economy in 2050: PwC The Times of India: London: The Indian economy will register the second fastest growth between now and 2050 and emerge as the second biggest economy in the world by the middle of this century, according to a forecast by the consultancy group, PriceWaterhouseCoopers, released on Friday. In terms of GDP at purchasing power parity (PPP), India is said to be on track to overtake Japan this year. The author of the report, PWC's chief economist, John Hawksworth, speaking exclusively to TOI, said, ''India has the potential to be one of the three great economies of the 21st century, together with China and the US.'' But he warned it would require significant improvement in ''India's energy and transport infrastructure, less red tape, increased education levels in rural areas, particularly for women, and the continuation of the open attitude to trade and investment seen over the past 20 years''.
SPECIAL – Aviation According to Kiran Rao, EVP (marketing and sales) and President, Airbus India, there is a huge potential in the Indian aviation sector. He said that the country is the fastest-growing aviation market in the world and requires 1,000 new planes over the next two decades. Significantly, IndiGo has announced that it is placing an order for another 180 Airbus A320 aircrafts. It is the largest single order by volume in commercial aviation history. Further, according to aviation industry experts, the Indian aviation sector will grow by 18-20 per cent this year. Among airlines, national carrier Air India and low-cost airlines IndiGo and SpiceJet will add more than 1,000 aircrafts this year.
India set to get Asia's first tidal power plant Business Standard: London: With the proposed commissioning of a 50-Mw tidal power project off the coast of Gujarat in 2013, India is ready to place its first “seamark” that will be a first for Asia as well. London-based marine energy developer Atlantis Resources Corporation, along with Gujarat Power Corporation Ltd, has signed a memorandum of understanding (MoU) with the Gujarat government to start this project. The cost for the plant is expected to be in the vicinity of Rs 750 crore. This plant is also is expected to be scaled up to 250 Mw. (More)
Bar coding made mandatory for pharma exports from July 2011 IBEF: The bar coding on all medicine packs meant for exports has been made mandatory by the Commerce Ministry with effect from July 1, 2011 to trace and track the medicines to its source of origin. In a public notice issued on January 10, 2011, the Directorate General of Foreign Trade specified that the rule mandates all exporters of pharmaceutical products to be equipped with the technology to affix barcodes during the interim period. Furthermore, the track and trace technology that should be used by drug exporters should conform to the GS-1 standards at all levels of packaging. GS-I is a global organisation that designs and implement such standards. While primary-level packs will see incorporation of 2D (two-dimensional) bar codes on medicines at strip, vial and bottle encoding of unique product identification code, batch number, expiry date and serial number, similar details will be displayed on the secondary and tertiary (shipper or carton) using 1D or 2D barcodes. Moreover, the recommendation for introducing bar coding was made by the manufacturers themselves, as per the industry officials.
April-Dec indirect tax collections rise 42.8% Business Standard: New Delhi: Indirect tax collections went up by 42.8 per cent to Rs 2,37,192 crore in April-December period this financial year, against Rs 1,66,133 crore in the corresponding months of 2009-10. The collections in the first nine months of 2010-11 are about 75.7 per cent of the Budget estimate of Rs 3,13,471 crore. Customs collections covered 86.8 per cent of total Budget estimates, while receipts of central excise and service tax — the other two components of the indirect tax structure — achieved 71.5 per cent and 64.8 per cent of Budget estimates, respectively, for the current financial year, the finance ministry said in a statement released to the media today. The largest chunk of the revenue collections came from Customs duty mop-up, which increased 68.1 per cent to Rs 99,830 crore in the nine months, against Rs 59,402 crore in the year-ago period. Last year, when the economy was not doing well due to the global economic meltdown, collections of Custom duty were the worst hit and even pulled down the overall revenue collections. Collections from excise rose to Rs 93,281 crore in April-December 2010-11, 33.7 per cent higher than the revenue of Rs 69,747 crore last year. Revenue collections from service tax stood at Rs 44,081 crore, an increase of 19.2 per cent from Rs 36,984 crore in the corresponding months in 2009-10. The increase in collections is an indicator of the economic activity picking up. The economy registered a GDP growth rate of 8.9 per cent in the first two quarters of the current financial year. In 2009-10, the total tax-mop up fell short of the target of Rs 6,41,000 crore. The government is expecting the tax collection target of Rs 7,46,000 crore to exceed this year. The finance ministry is expecting to overshoot its indirect tax collection target by Rs 10,000-15,000 crore. The growth may be led by a robust increase seen in excise and Customs collections, which are likely to exceed the Budgeted target of Rs 1,30,471 crore and Rs 1,15,000 crore respectively. Service tax collections, on the other hand, may just meet the target of Rs 68,000 crore. Direct tax collections in April-December 2010-11 increased 19.47 per cent to touch Rs 2,98,958 crore, compared with Rs 2,50,232 crore in the corresponding period last year.
Drug retail sales up 18% in 2010 as cos take rural roads The Economic Times: New Delhi: Sales in the domestic drug retail market rose a healthy 18.36% during 2010, making India an attractive destination for foreign players who have been looking to buy local companies to increase exposure in one of the fastest growing healthcare markets globally. The size of Indian drug retail market crossed Rs 46,500 crore for the 12 months ended November 2010, according to research firm IMS Health Information and Consulting Services. The stock market also captured the double digit growth in the pharma market with BSE Healthcare, a share index of drugmakers generating 31% returns for shareholders, better than the market benchmark Sensex. Ranjit Kapadia, VP Institutional Sales at brokerage HDFC Securities who tracks pharma companies said, "Many companies forayed in rural market through new marketing teams and channels expanding the overall market." American drugmaker Abbott Laboratories, which acquired Mumbai-based Piramal Healthcare's domestic branded medicines business for $3.7 billion in May this year, held on to its top position with a 6.9% market share despite a sluggish growth of its new business. The acquired business, grew a meagre 12.7% for the 12-month ended November 2010 over the year-ago period. For November alone, it was the worst performer among the top 20 drugmakers with a mere 1.1% growth. Sales of its best selling brand cough syrup Phensedyl fell as much as 72% to Rs 5.4 crore in November, due to shortage of raw materials. This has pushed Phensedyl down to the fourth position among the top selling medicine brands in the country. Till recently, it used to compete closely with Pfizer's cough syrup Corex, the best selling drug in India.

Construction work of 4 MW solar project all set to begin The Times of India: Chandrapur :Construction work of four 4 MW solar power projects on the premises of Chandrapur Super Thermal Power Station (CSTPS) is all set to begin. Giving a major thrust to the upcoming project, Mahagenco and MSETCL made an agreement for transmission of 61.33 lakh units that would be generated in the 4 MW solar power project here. The Indian Renewable Energy Development Agency Limited (IREDA) sanctioned a sum of Rs 39.39 crores (75% of the project cost) for the project. Encouraged by the success of its first solar power plant of 1 MW capacity functioning on CSTPS premises, Mahagenco had decided to take up additional 4 MW additional solar power project at the same site. The tender process for construction work is over and the company has awarded the two separate contracts for 2 MW each to different companies. M/s Megha Engineering and Infrastructure, Hyderabad has been awarded contract for 2MW (Thin film technology) grid interactive solar PV Power Project worth Rs 24 crores. This 2 MW project would require 18 acres. Similarly the other 2 MW (Crystaline Technology) grid interactive solar PV Power Project worth Rs 25 crores has been awarded to M/s Instant Energy Pvt Ltd, Mumbai. This part of the project would require five hectares, Mahagenco sources said. The stipulated period for the completion of the construction work is July 2011 and the contract cost is inclusive of three years of operation and maintenance cost. The land is already in possession of Mahagenco at CSTPS and is located adjacent to the existing 1 MW solar power project. Senior officials of Mahagenco and MSETCL met at Mumbai on January 13, and an agreement for transmission of 61.33 lakh units that would generated be in the 4 MW solar power project here was signed between the two companies on the occasion. The cost of 4 MW project is Rs 52.52 crores. While IREDA has sanctioned the 75% (Rs 39.39 crores), the Mahagenco will generate remaining 25%. Mahagenco has already signed sales agreement with NTPC Vidyut Vyapar Nigam for sale of the electricity generated from this solar project at a rate of Rs 17.91 per unit. It is the first solar power project sanctioned by IREDA in the government sector. Moreover, for the first time MSETCL has made an agreement for transmission of power generated from solar power plant under the clause of power purchase agreement.
Exports at 33 month high, touch US$ 22.5 billion in December 2010 IBEF: New Delhi: India's exports recorded strongest growth in last 33 months. Exports grew by a significant 36.4 per cent on an annual basis – raising prospects that US$ 215 to US$ 225 billion worth of merchandise will be exported in 2010-11. Furthermore, in December 2010, the exporting sectors registered higher growth, which includes engineering (112 per cent), electronics (88 per cent), manmade fibres (30 per cent), yarns (65 per cent) and drugs (810 per cent). "The US markets have been (doing) pretty good, even EU markets are good," according to Mr Rahul Khullar, the Commerce Secretary. Mr Khullar further added that the "remarkable job by exports" was also attributed to the diversification of India's export markets. For instance, 112 per cent rise in engineering exports was helped much by orders from Latin American countries like Columbia. The Government had set an export target of US$ 200 billion for 2010-11. "It is quite clear that the Indian exports are on a rebound," according to Rakesh Mohan Joshi, Indian Institute of Foreign Trade (IIFT).
India-China bilateral trade surpasses US$ 60 billion target in 2010 IBEF: New Delhi: Bilateral trade between India and China surpassed the US$ 60 billion target, reaching US$ 61.7 billion in 2010, on the back of surge in Indian imports of Chinese telecom and power generation machinery. The officials of the two countries observed that they were on course to meet the new target of US$ 100 billion for 2015, set during recent visit of Wen Jiabao's Chinese Premier to New Delhi. Indian exports, mainly driven by cotton and iron ore to China amounted to US$ 20.8 billion while Chinese exports to India totalled to US$ 40.8 billion, virtually double that of India. Commenting on the new trade figures, Mr K Nagraj Naidu, First Secretary, Economic and Commerce at the Indian Embassy remarked while bilateral economic trade ties were on positive track, it is important for both the countries to realise greater cooperation. "China has to understand the importance to provide market access to India specially Indian products like IT and Pharmaceuticals", as per Mr Naidu. India is keenly awaiting for China to open its markets for Agro-products, Engineering services, Information Technology (IT) and Pharmaceuticals. According to Indian officials, majority of Indian exports included iron ore, cotton, yarn and cotton products, chemicals besides small machinery and pharma products.While, the telecom and power equipment constituted the bulk of the Chinese exports to India.
India to become fourth largest passenger vehicle market in three years IBEF: New Delhi: India is poised to become the world's fourth largest passenger vehicles (PV) market in three years, with an investment requirement of around US$ 20 billion for the construction of nine new plants to address the growing demand, according to global consulting firm Booz&Co.

E-NEWSLETTER OF THE EMBASSY OF INDIA, PARAMARIBO
DOING BUSINESS WITH INDIA Indian Economy- The science of success The Indian pharmaceuticals industry is poised for phenomenal growth. It’s the world’s third-largest in volume and 14th in sales value. A report from the leading market analysis firm PricewaterhouseCoopers says that India will join the league of top-10 global pharmaceuticals markets by 2020. By then, sales will double to $50 billion, says the report. Promising future The positive outlook is mostly attributable to growing urbanization. Hospitals are mushrooming in cities and health insurance coverage is expanding. Better incomes ensure increasing demand for medicines. More people are now working in cities. There are newer, better and more widely available drugs for treating lifestyles-related ailments such as diabetes, hypertension and gastric conditions. However, three-fourths of the domestic pharmaceutical market is still dominated by drugs for acute therapies. Shushmul Maheswari, CEO of research organization RNCOS, says, “Anti-infective drugs alone had a market share of 19 percent last year. The spread of infectious diseases is expected to keep this trend unchanged in the coming years, aiding the pharma industry.” International consultancy firm Ernst & Young recently conducted a study with the Federation of Indian Chambers of Commerce and Industry on the Indian pharmaceuticals industry. Called ‘The Glorious Metamorphosis — Compelling Reasons for Doing Clinical Research in India’, it said the market for patented drugs would grow exponentially. By 2015, the growing highest income group could help open up a $5-billion market for multinational corporations with patented drugs, accounting for up to 10 percent of the market. Nutraceuticals: The next big thing Urbanization is adding affluent nuclear families focused on improved lifestyles and health. Better media penetration is driving this group toward consuming wellness products. An entire class of over-the-counter formulations combining nutrition and well-ness has come to be known internationally as nutraceuticals. Last year, this market attracted over $1 billion in revenues. The nutraceutical segment is dominated by multinational giants such as Pfizer, GlaxoSmithKline, Novartis, Abbott, and the Indian subsidiary of Merck Limited. A report published by Ernst & Young titled ‘Nutraceuticals — Critical Supplement for building a Healthy India’, says this market is growing at more-thantwice the global growth rate of 7 percent. Pharma outsourcing Last year, exports made up 42 percent of the industry’s total revenue. Exports will remain important, especially in the light of India’s growing attractiveness for outsourcing generic drug manufacturing facilities. Four leading factors contribute to this development: favorable pricing, low production costs, world-class manufacturing facilities, and a rising number of US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) -approved plants. These factors have ensured that more than one-fifth of the world’s generics are manufactured in India. Many of these generics are lifesaving formulations. Over time, Indian companies have emerged as world leaders in producing generic drugs. America and Japan are now increasingly accepting generics produced in India; leading Indian producers of such drugs have aggressively expanded their overseas distribution networks. America and Europe are cutting healthcare costs, and the patents of many blockbuster drugs are expiring, paving the way for generics. In a report called Booming Generics Drug Market in India, RNCOS says that the generics segment will grow by 17 per cent annually in the next two years. It is worth US$11 billion at present. Clinical trials At present, an overwhelming 85 per cent of business for India’s pharmaceutical outsourcing industry, comes from contract manufacturing. Preclinical and clinical trials contribute a mere three per cent to this turnover. Maheshwari of RNCOS says this share will grow as more international companies outsource their clinical trials to India. Companies can quickly recruit subjects for clinical trials from India’s available population of patients of cancer, diabetes and other diseases. It is natural, therefore, for India to emerge as a preferred global hub for quality clinical trials. Cost advantage According to US-based research firm Center Watch, clinical research in India costs less than half of what it does in the US. Releasing its findings last year in a study called the ‘State of the Clinical Trials Industry’; it said mature drug development trials in European markets are expensive. Since such trials can cost nearly US$150 million in the US, multinationals stand to save substantially in India, largely owing to cheaper manpower. Government initiatives The government’s Pharma Vision envisages developing India as a leading destination for end-to-end drug discovery and pharma innovation hub by 2020. To this end, it is going all out to ensure that the sector shines. It has introduced 100 per cent foreign direct investment under the automatic route in this sector. A US$640 million venture capital fund to boost drug discovery and strengthen the pharmaceutical infrastructure is also on the anvil. The Drugs and Pharmaceuticals Manufacturers Association recently broached the possibility of establishing a special economic zone (SEZ) for pharmaceuticals, bulk drugs and formulations in the industrially developed port city of Visakhapatnam in the southern Indian state of Andhra Pradesh. The government has approved the request in principle. It will take astute planning and concentrated effort, but India is on track to joining the league of top 10 global pharmaceutical markets by 2020.
FEATURE: Indian Education: Looking Ahead Shri Kapil Sibal* As India continues to make sustained and significant economic progress there is need to tackle much more aggressively the problems of structural inequities, especially on the education front. Consider the fact that more than 100 million youth - the combined labour forces of Britain, France, Italy and Spain - are projected to join the workforce by 2020. This is a great potential resource provided the workforce is empowered with education and skills to leverage on the available global opportunities. If we fail to provide our youth with the requisite education and skills we will not only fail to utilize our demographic advantage but we will end up alienating large sections of our young population as well. This has made it imperative for us to expand our education base so as to be able to provide quality, affordable and merit-based education for the entire young population. To make this a reality, I have set out three principles that we must broadly embrace: First, access…providing access to educational
opportunities to all who desire and need it; second, affordability…making education a reality by reducing financial barriers; and third, building quality and accountability…that we are teaching what is relevant and at global levels and delivering good value for money. The expansion in education, over the second decade of the twenty-first century, that we are envisaging, is unprecedented in modern history. Let us assess the situation. Presently the Gross Enrolment Ratio in higher education is a mere 15% we seek to enhance it to 30% by the end of 2020, in real terms it would mean tripling of the enrollment from around 13 million to 40 million. At the secondary school level around 40 million students enroll in 9th to 12th standard every year, if only 10% were to enroll for vocational educational, that is 4 million as against the present 1 million seats this will mean a mammoth expansion of vocational education. In regard to school education the demand has grown by leaps and bounds everybody, from the poorest of the poor to the well off, acknowledges the value of education. Our data reveals that nearly 100 per cent children are enrolled in primary school; 98% of our habitations have a primary school within one kilometre, and 92% have an upper primary school within three kilometres. Transition rates from primary to upper primary levels have improved substantially. As a result many more children from much marginalized backgrounds are accessing school. But despite these impressive statistics, as many as 10 million children in the age group 6-14 years may be still not attending school due to the huge dropout rate. The Right to Free & Compulsory Education Act (RTE Act) that has come into effect from 2010 is aimed to ensure that these out of school children get the right to education. The progress in universalisation of elementary education over the first decade is truly inspiring. Sarva Shiksha Abhiyan (SSA), which is the main vehicle for implementation of RTE Act. has helped to open more than 300,000 new schools, construct 250,000 school buildings, 11,00,000 additional classrooms, and 3,40,000 toilets, appoint over 11 lakh teachers, provide in-service training to over 14 lakh teachers and supply free textbooks to 8.70 crore children, with the result that an additional 40 million students have been enrolled. While we are making massive efforts to boost educational attendance and attainment at the elementary school level, we are also working for enhancing the enrollment and the quality at the middle and secondary school levels too to take care of not only the influx of students from the elementary stream but by motivating the present dropouts to enroll. I am thus hoping to enhance the Gross Enrollment Ratio (GER) of secondary education from around 50% presently to over 75% by the end of the decade. A Rashtriya Madhyamik Shiksha Abhiyan (RMSA) programme has been launched for the purpose. Already over 5 lakh teachers have been provided in-service training. And by the end of the decade I expect that each child passing out from the secondary school should be computer literate as we have mounted a mammoth programme of ICT in schools. Other initiatives include a continuous and comprehensive evaluation system for CBSE board for class 10 from the year 2011, and uniform Pan-India curriculum for math and science for board exams from 2011 academic session and uniform curriculum in commerce by 2012. In regard to vocational education, it is presently not very attractive to those who are unable to pursue higher education. We are thus seeking to devise a vocational education and training system, National Vocational Qualification Framework, that is meant to meet the needs and aspirations of the students, the labour market and to be in tune with the ethos and values of the local community and society. This framework would set common principles and guidelines for a nationally recognized qualification system, covering schools, vocational education institutes and institutes of higher education with qualifications ranging from secondary to doctorate level, leading to international recognition of national standards. The framework will be a competency based modular approach with provision for credit accumulation and transfer. Students would have the scope for vertical and horizontal mobility with multiple entry and exits. This would be especially useful to promote the creative genius of every child including children with special needs. Sector Skill Councils and Industry would collaborate in the development of quality standards, competencies, model curricula, assessment standards and testing procedures. Linkage between education providers and employers would be ensured. In regard to higher education we have taken several steps to address the expansion, by setting up: · · · · · · ·
16 new Central universities in the various States, 8 new IITs in Bihar, Andhra Pradesh, Rajasthan, Orissa, Gujarat, Punjab, Himachal Pradesh, and Madhya Pradesh, 7 new IIMs, 5 Indian Institute of Science Education and Research (IISERs) at Pune, Kolkata, Mohali, Bhopal and Thiruvananthapuram , 10 new NITs at Arunachal Pradesh, Sikkim, Meghalaya, Nagaland, Manipur, Mizoram, Goa, Delhi, Uttarakhand and Puducherry, 20 new Indian Institutes of Information Technology (IIITs) up on a Public Private Partnership (PPP) basis , and 374 Model Degree Colleges, one each in identified educationally Backward Districts where Gross Enrolment Ratio is less than National average.
Further with the view to facilitate teaching resource sharing and providing access to open educational resources we have set up the National Mission on Education through ICT to link twenty thousand of degree colleges and ten thousand departments within universities. The private sector is also contributing in this effort. In order to increase the number of quality faculty positions in science, a scheme of Operation Faculty Recharge is being launched to provide appointment for 1000 faculty positions created and to be filled at national level through global advertisement. We have taken several concurrent steps to address the quality aspects in higher education. We have introduced in Parliament the National Accreditation Regulatory Authority for Higher Educational Institutions Bill, 2010 to provide for mandatory accreditation of all educational institutions and another bill to set up a National Commission for Higher Education and Research (NCHER) for regulating higher education. This is in accordance with the general principle of moving from “inspection approval” based mechanism of recognizing institutions to a “verification assessment” method. On the academic front the semester system has been initiated, regular up gradation and updating of syllabi has been mandated and choice-based credit system introduced. We are working on a national depository for holding in electronic form of all academic degrees, diplomas and certificates issued by all educational institutions. There are several other initiatives that we have taken such as improving the quality of teachers and faculty at various education levels, redressal of disputes, prohibition of malpractices and others which will materialize soon and whose impact will be felt in the course of next two years or so. Thus my vision is that within this decade every Indian, including the disadvantaged, the marginalized and the minorities, will have access to quality and affordable education be it at the primary, secondary or professional level. Indian education of future will thus be: Different and unique. Dynamic, vigorous, bold and functional, serving the needs of not only of the Indian society but the global community I am confident that India will emerge as the international hub for education in the next 20 years and what the BPO and IT sectors are today for India, education should be in 2030.
