RBI's change in project finance rules may sow the seeds of a future crisis

Given that the project does not generate any revenue at this stage, loan repayment generally starts after the construction is over and the project has begun operations Prasanna Tantri Listen to This Article The Reserve Bank of India's (RBI's) recent project financing guidelines have led to much cheer in the stock markets. One highlight is that the provisioning requirement on project finance is now 1 per cent, instead of 5 per cent proposed in the discussion paper issued earlier. Many lenders feared that a blanket requirement of 5 per cent, provisioning would absorb all capital and slow down lending. Thus, the RBI has avoided a short-term slowdown in economic activity.

'Dude clears interviews': Indian-origin entrepreneur says truth of Soham Parekh is simple

As Soham Parekh emerged as the 'Me Too' moment for US tech world, a US-based Indian-origin entrepreneur, Pritika Mehta, broke down the mystery and decided that the truth of Soham Parekh was pretty simple. Tired of too many ads? go ad free now Paresk cleared interviews as he was good with that, then he had junior people working for him like a small dev shop. The curious case of Soham Parekh broke the Internet after a US-based AI founder, Suhail Doshi, outed him on X claiming that Parekh has been moonlighting for years, which means he has been working for several software companies at the same time, and he is not even in the US. His resume went viral though his credentials are now disputed as he has been accused of fraud. 'Dog-eat-dog world out there' Another Indian-origin CEO Mihir Deo said Soham Parekh;s story did not surprise him at all. "That's just how it goes with a lot of the Indian engineering market, straight up. Some people are shocked by this, but if there's anyone who knows the Indian engineering market, the Soham Parekh stuff is like: "yeah, of course they do that"," he wrote. "I explored starting a business in India in the past. But the lack of trust that I had in people dissuaded me. People overpromise (and aren't afraid of overpromising) and often stab you in the back to get their lunch. It's a dog eat dog world out there. I decided against starting a company in India because I determined I wasn't thick skinned enough (e.g. also too rigorously honest as well) to play that game," Mihir Deo wrote. While US tech workers have been complaining about Indians eating up their jobs, the news of one Indian taking so many jobs in the US raised questions over the hiring and the management of these startups. Tech influencer Deedy Das suggested Parekh is 'just the tip of the iceberg,' pointing to a broader trend of 'overemployment' in remote work, with a Reddit community discussing similar cases.
