HC asks MMRDA to deposit Rs 1,169 crore arbitral award in dispute with Reliance Infra
The Bombay High Court on Tuesday directed the Mumbai Metropolitan Region Development Authority (MMRDA) to deposit the arbitration award of Rs 1,169 crore with the court registry in connection with its dispute with the Mumbai Metro One Pvt Ltd ( MMOPL ), a subsidiary of Anil Ambani's Reliance Infrastructure . The MMRDA, a Maharashtra government agency, has moved the HC challenging two orders -- of August 2023 and February 2024 -- passed by a three-member tribunal in arbitration between MMOPL and MMRDA for various disputes including the cost of the metro project. The MMRDA, in an application, sought an interim stay to the arbitral award till the petition was heard and decided. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like B.

BITS Pilani WILP Apply Now Undo Justice Somasekhar Sundaresan on Tuesday refused to grant any interim relief without the amount being deposited. When parties agreed to submit themselves to arbitration and it culminated in an award, the money decree in the arbitral award is not something "written on water and irrelevant", said the judge. Live Events "Routinely granting a stay and that too without any deposit would run counter to the explicit legislative intervention that was made by Parliament to give teeth and relevance to arbitral awards," the HC said. The court further said no case was made out for an unconditional stay. If the MMRDA deposited the entire amount by July 15, then the execution of the award would be stayed pending final hearing and decision on the MMRDA's petition, it added. MMOPL, a joint venture of Reliance Infrastructure and MMRDA, operates Mumbai's first metro line on Versova -Andheri-Ghatkopar corridor. While Reliance Infrastructure holds 74 per cent stake, the rest is with MMRDA. The disputes between the two parties relate to the development, design, engineering, financing, procurement, construction, operation and maintenance of metro rail under a 2007 agreement. The metro rail project started with a delay of over two years. MMOPL claimed that the project costs increased from Rs 2,356 crore to Rs 4,321 crores, which the MMRDA contested. PTI

SBI report finds India's household debt rise not a cause for concern
The Reserve Bank of India (RBI) sees the increase in household debt as sustainable, especially given two-thirds of the portfolio is made up of prime and above-credit-quality borrowers read more What happened India's household debt has been on the rise over the past three years. However, according to a report by the State Bank of India (SBI), this increase is not a cause for concern. The Reserve Bank of India (RBI) sees the increase in household debt as sustainable, especially given two-thirds of the portfolio is made up of prime and above-credit-quality borrowers. Tell me more - SBI reports that two-thirds of household debt in India is of prime and above credit quality, indicating strong repayment capacity. STORY CONTINUES BELOW THIS AD - The increase in debt is attributed to a higher number of borrowers, not excessive borrowing by existing borrowers. - Around 25% of household loans are for asset creation (homes, vehicles). - Another 30% are for productive purposes such as agriculture, business, and education. - 45% of loans (personal, credit card, and consumer durable) are used for consumption. - India's household debt stands at 42% of GDP, lower than the 49.1% average among other emerging market economies (EMEs). - The RBI's rate-easing cycle has led to a 100-basis-point cut in the repo rate, reducing interest rates on loans linked to external benchmarks. - Approximately 80% of retail and MSME loan portfolios are now linked to the External Benchmark Lending Rate (EBLR), leading to potential savings of Rs 50,000–60,000 for households. - The rate cut cycle is expected to continue for two years, helping further reduce household borrowing costs. - Last week, the RBI reduced the repo rate by 50 basis points to 5.5% and also cut the Cash Reserve Ratio (CRR) by 100 basis points in four tranches. The context Household debt is a key indicator of financial stability, and while rising debt can be risky, the structure and quality of India's household borrowing paint a relatively healthy picture.
