The commission had earlier issued a bailable warrant against Disha Choudhury, the managing director of company Dreamz Infra India Ltd for not complying with its order to appear before it. Left with no option, a bench of Justice Inderjit Singh and Sadhna Shanker directed her arrest. The court passed the order on a plea of homebuyers who approached the commission through advocate Chandrachur Bhattacharya seeking execution of commission's 2022 order to refund the money which was upheld by the SC also.
The commission had in 2022 directed Dreamz Infra India Ltd to complete construction and offer possession to the homebuyers along with delay interest of 9 % per annum or refund the money. Thousands of buyers who had booked flats in the housing projects in Bengaluru in 2012 were cheated by the company as they were promised possession in 2014 but were left waiting for their flats even after 11 years of the deadline.
NCDRC had in April issued bailable arrest warrants against Choudhary with directions to release her on personal bail bond of Rs 10 lakhs with one surety of the like amount but the city police informed the commission that it could not locate her to execute the warrants.

How to Use SIP Investment Plan to Reach Your Retirement Goals
Retirement planning is one of the few key decisions that everyone takes in their financial life. A structured and consistent approach towards this can make your journey easier as well as efficient. One such approach is starting a Systematic Investment Plan, which offers you a structured approach to accumulating wealth over time. Here's how an SIP investment plan can potentially help you work towards your retirement goals. SIPs can help you invest systematically for retirement Understanding the SIP investment plan A Systematic Investment Plan (SIP) allows you to invest a fixed amount regularly in mutual funds. Instead of investing a large sum at once, SIP investment plans break down your investment into smaller, manageable amounts that are invested at regular intervals, typically monthly. This method not only encourages financial discipline but also potentially reduces the impact of market volatility through rupee cost averaging. Benefits of using SIPs for retirement planning Disciplined savings : SIPs help inculcate a habit of regular saving and investing, which is crucial for long-term goals like retirement. Power of compounding : When you start early and remain consistent, your investments may benefit from compounding. Over the years, even small monthly contributions can grow significantly. Flexibility : You can start a SIP with as little as Rs. 500 in general and increase the amount as your income grows. Convenience: With automated deductions from your bank account, SIPs are hassle-free and require minimal intervention. Setting your retirement goal Before you start your SIP investment plan, it is essential that you assess the amount you need to accumulate for your retirement. Consider factors such as your current lifestyle, year-on-year inflation, expected retirement age, and life expectancy. Here, using an online calculator can help you get a rough idea of the corpus you might need. Once you have a detailed picture of your corpus, you can start working backwards to determine how much you need to invest and for how long. This will give you understanding on the amount you need to invest in your SIP investment plan. Choosing suitable mutual funds Retirement is a long-term goal. This means that investing in an equity mutual funds through a SIP investment plan can be a suitable option. Equity funds have the potential to generate better returns over longer periods, although they come with higher risk. Then, as your retirement age nears, you may gradually shift your investments towards debt-oriented or hybrid funds that can potentially stabilise capital and reduce risk. This phased approach helps balance growth in early years and stability in later ones. Reviewing your SIP periodically While a SIP investment plan helps you stay consistent, it is also essential to periodically review your investments. As you go about life, both your income levels and market conditions fluctuate. Adjusting your SIP amount or the fund of your choice basis these changes can help you ensure that your plan stays aligned with your retirement goals. Using a lumpsum calculator to complement your strategy In addition to this, you may also consider investing a lumpsum amount when your finances allow it. A lumpsum calculator can help you plan your approach. This tool helps you estimate the potential future value of your one-time investment based on expected returns and tenure. Not only does this give the broader picture but also does it allow you to potentially accelerate your retirement planning. It is also essential to align your investment strategy with your risk appetite and financial horizon. While SIPs offer a steady approach, lumpsum investments can be a suitable one-time push that your SIP investment plan might need. Conclusion A SIP investment plan can be a valuable add on to your financial journey. This valuable tool can help you build a retirement corpus in time. When used in combination with other financial tools in your tool kit like lumpsum investments, it may support your efforts in creating long-term financial stability. Remember, the earlier you start even with modest contributions, the more meaningful contribution you can make to your financial health over time. Mutual Fund investments are subject to market risks, read all scheme related documents carefully.

Andhra Pradesh lacks fiscal discipline, picks debts through NCDs at higher interest rate: Ex-CM YS Jagan Mohan Reddy
VIJAYAWADA: Former chief minister and YSRCP supremo YS Jagan Mohan Reddy has charged that the state government's lack of fiscal discipline and disregard for the constitutional framework has pushed the state into big trouble. He said that the APMDC NCDs (bonds) were issued at a coupon (interest) rate as high as 9.30%, which is 2.60% higher than the prevailing SDL rate. In a social media post tagging union finance minister Nirmala Sitaraman and other PMO, Jagan Mohan Reddy alleged that they have learnt that APMDC concluded the second tranche of its NCD (bond) issuance at a coupon (interest) rate of 9.30% and raised Rs. 5,526 crores, taking the aggregate value of the issuance to Rs. 9,000 crores on Wednesday (June, 25). 'The govt went ahead with the issuance of NCDs despite the matter being admitted by the AP High Court and notices served. It is quite apparent that the proceeds of the issuance would be utilized for financing government revenue expenditure,' said Jagan. He explained that the TDP alliance government, granted private parties access to the consolidated fund of the state through RBI direct debit mandate, owing to which, private parties can access the state exchequer and withdraw funds without any requirement of any action from the state government officials. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Perdagangkan CFD Emas dengan Broker Tepercaya IC Markets Mendaftar Undo He said that it was a blatant violation of articles, 203, 204 and 293(1) of the Constitution of India. In a manner unheard of, the govt also mortgaged mineral wealth worth Rs. 1,91,000 crores for NCD (bond) issuances of aggregate value Rs. 9,000 crores. He said that with permission to access state consolidated fund and mortgage of govt property of disproportionately huge value, one would imagine that these bonds are even more secure than the SDLs (State Development Loans) issued by the state government. He alleged that the additional yearly burden on the APMDC is to the tune of Rs. 235 crores, owing to the high interest rate and the term of NCDs is understood to be 10 years. With NCD issuance, the total budget and off-budget borrowings availed and secured in this 13-month period by the TDP alliance govt exceeded 50% of what was borrowed by previous govt over a 5-year period.
