GTRI backs RoDTEP reinstatement, urges five-year stability to boost exports
The Global Trade Research Initiative (GTRI) has welcomed the reinstatement of the Remission of Duties and Taxes on Exported Products (RoDTEP) scheme but stressed on the need for a stable, five-year implementation period to bolster India's export competitiveness.
'To position India as a stable and competitive export hub, the government must ensure uninterrupted RoDTEP coverage for at least five years. Frequent policy shifts hurt credibility, weaken trust, and ultimately damage India's export competitiveness,' GTRI said.
Although the RoDTEP scheme complies with
World Trade Organisation
(WTO) norms, GTRI expressed concern over the government's inconsistent handling of the policy. The scheme reimburses exporters for embedded duties, taxes, and levies not covered under other incentive programs.
RoDTEP benefits for certain categories were discontinued on February 5, 2025. However, the recent decision to reinstate them aims to ensure a level playing field for exporters across sectors. The Ministry of Commerce and Industry noted that this move reflects the government's ongoing efforts to enhance India's position in global markets.
Since its inception, the RoDTEP scheme has seen disbursements exceeding Rs.

Why did RIL's shares plummet despite analysts' positive projections?
Jani said Q1 results for O2C and retail businesses were below market expectations, while telecom unit results were in line with expectations. Synopsis Reliance Industries' shares experienced a decline of over 3% on Monday. This followed the release of Q1 earnings that were lower than anticipated. Investors reacted to the results and a deferred IPO plan. Despite the dip, brokerages maintain a positive outlook on the company. They foresee potential growth triggers in the near future. Mumbai: Shares of Reliance Industries dropped over 3% on Monday as investors weighed the conglomerate's lower-than-expected Q1 earnings against analysts' positive outlook on stock after results. Stock ended at ₹1,428.6 on Monday, down 3.2%, capping gains in Sensex and Nifty, which ended 0.5% higher. ADVERTISEMENT "Reliance shares had recently rallied on expectations of strong quarterly results and a potential IPO announcement for its telecom business," said Sumit Pokharna, VP, fundamental research, Kotak Securities. "But, the management's clarification the IPO is deferred to next year had earlier led to some correction, and combined with results below Street estimates, we saw some profit-booking." The stock has gone up about 17% so far this year, against Nifty's 5.7% gains. PAT in June quarter stood at ₹30,681 crore, up 36.8% from January-March. Its revenues from operations stood at ₹2,48,660 crore, down 6% from previous quarter. It had recorded a one-time gain from selling its stake in Asian Paints for nearly ₹8,900 crore. Brokerages remain positive on company, with most retaining 'buy' and 'add' ratings post results. Price targets imply an upside of 8-19% from current levels. "We see 3 growth triggers for RIL in near term: scale-up of new energy business; Jio tariff hikes; and potential IPO/listing for Jio which has now been pushed beyond 2025," said Nomura. The stock may underperform in near term. "In absence of clear catalysts, stock may remain a laggard," said Hemang Jani, director at Finazenn. Jani said Q1 results for O2C and retail businesses were below market expectations, while telecom unit results were in line with expectations.

Delhi MCD nets 50% of property tax target in first quarter. Here's how
The Municipal Corporation of Delhi (MCD) has achieved 50% of its property tax collection target in the first quarter of the current financial year, officials said on Monday. A total of Rs 1,650 crore has been collected so far against the target of Rs 3,200 crore. According to sources, the achievement can be attributed to the online payment mode, which started last July, and the Property Tax Amnesty Scheme 2025-26, known as Sumpattikar Niptaan Yojana (SUNIYO). 'Last year, we were able to collect only Rs 1,500 crore by this time due to payments made by cheques, a majority of which would bounce,' an official said, adding that a total of Rs 2,132 crore was collected against the target of Rs 4,000 crore last year. Till now, 59,411 taxpayers have availed of the SUNIYO scheme, and property tax to the tune of Rs 145.19 crore has been received. Under the one-time amnesty scheme valid from June 1 to September 30, a taxpayer can get a full waiver on arrears — interest and penalties — for periods before the financial year 2020-21, provided they pay the principal amount of property tax for the current year (2025-26) and the previous five financial years (2020-21 to 2024-25), as per an MCD circular. The official, explaining how the online mode is helpful, said that earlier, taxpayers used to submit the cheque at the last moment at the end of a financial year. With a cheque valid for three months, it used to get cleared in the next financial year. 'This used to get recorded twice by the system due to lack of reconciliation. Cheque bounce was also a major issue,' the official said. 'Numbers used to be high, but the actual amount with the department was less because of these reasons, and it was difficult for the officials to trace the person since they would – on many occasions — not write the full address,' the official added. On Monday, the civic body organised 2,333 property tax camps across the city's 12 zones to facilitate taxpayers in filing their taxes and availing benefits offered under the Amnesty Scheme. To avail of this benefit, taxpayers are required to file their online Property Tax Return (PTR) on the official MCD portal. Mayor Raja Iqbal Singh said more property tax camps will be organised in the coming days: 'In view of the encouraging response to the SUNIYO scheme, more property tax camps will be held in the coming days to ensure all eligible citizens can benefit from the amnesty.' He also announced that the last date to avail a 10% rebate on lump sum property tax payment for the current financial year has been extended till July 31.
