'Speed up unclaimed deposit refunds': FM Nirmala Sitharaman asks RBI, Sebi to standardise KYC
MUMBAI: FM Nirmala Sitharaman has called on financial regulators to expedite the return of unclaimed assets that have accumulated across banks, insurers, mutual funds, and pension accounts. The FM stressed a coordinated approach to reconnect rightful owners or heirs with dormant funds while chairing the Financial Stability & Development Council (FSDC) meet here on Tuesday. The plan includes district-level outreach camps involving multiple agencies. The FSDC functions as the main platform for dialogue between the finance ministry and regulators. Tuesday's meeting was attended by RBI governor Sanjay Malhotra, Sebi chief Tuhin Kanta Pandey and ministry officials. These assets have grown due to outdated contact details, incomplete documentation, or unreported deaths. Unclaimed bank deposits reached Rs 78,213 crore as of March 2024, rising 26% from the previous year. RBI holds these balances under its Depositor Education and Awareness Fund. SBI alone accounts for over Rs 8,000 crore of this amount. Stockbrokers and other Sebi-regulated entities hold an additional Rs 500 crore in unclaimed assets, spread across idle funds and securities. Several demat accounts and mutual fund units remain inaccessible because of incomplete nominations or lack of awareness. Based on a review of cybersecurity rules, and suggestions from Financial Sector Assessment Programme 2024-25, the FSDC discussed creating a dedicated cybersecurity plan. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Top 5 Dividend Stocks for May 2025 Seeking Alpha Read Now Undo This area has received emphasis in the wake of the surge in cyberattacks following the India-Pakistan conflict. The council also discussed expanding both the access and coverage of factoring services as well as the use of account aggregators which improves financial inclusion and can reduce unclaimed assets. It also discussed creating frameworks to assess and improve the responsiveness of regulations and proposed prescribing common KYC norms to enable digital onboarding, especially for NRIs, PIOs and OCIs in Indian markets. She said the asset recovery process must be simplified, especially for NRIs, PIOs, and OCIs. Sebi, RBI, Irdai, PFRDA, and the corporate affairs ministry have been asked to work together to reduce procedural hurdles. A standardised KYC framework and uniform nomination systems are part of the plan. Stay informed with the latest business news, updates on bank holidays and public holidays .

Pakistan's tax exemptions hit $21 billion; exceed external debt repayments: Economic survey reveals
Pakistan's tax exemptions to various sectors cost the country over $21 billion this year, more than the $17 billion it needs to repay in commercial and bilateral external debt, as revealed in the latest economic survey. Pakistan's finance minister Muhammad Aurangzeb presented the Economic Survey of Pakistan 2024-25 on Monday, which outlines various economic developments and indicators for the fiscal year. The survey indicates that tax exemption costs increased to Rs 5.8 trillion in fiscal year 2024-25, showing a substantial rise of Rs 2 trillion from the previous year's Rs 3.9 trillion under the current government, according to news agency PTI. The survey reveals a Rs 1.96 trillion or 51% increase in tax expenditure, despite the Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) government's removal of several exemptions in its previous budget. T by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Halle: GEERS sucht 700 Testhörer für Hörgeräte ohne Zuzahlung GEERS Undo he economic survey shows that tax concessions and exemptions continue to rise annually, despite multiple attempts to reduce them. These exemptions, established over time, are safeguarded under three separate tax laws. Sales tax exemptions reached Rs 4.3 trillion in the outgoing fiscal year, showing a 50% increase from Rs 2.9 trillion in the previous period. Income tax exemptions rose by 68% to Rs 801 billion from Rs 477 billion, whilst the government increased tax burden on salaried individuals but maintained exemptions for other sectors like retailers. Customs duty exemptions rose by Rs 243 billion or 45% to Rs 786 billion this fiscal year from Rs 543 billion previously, according to the report. The Rs 5.8 trillion in "tax expenditures for 2025" raises questions about the reliability of earlier reported losses, it added. The continuous growth in tax expenditures, despite governmental efforts to reduce them, suggests either the implementation of numerous undisclosed tax exemptions or underreporting of previous figures. The report says the sharp rise in tax exemption costs is not due to any major increase in economic activity.

Pakistan's tax exemptions rise to $21 million, economic survey shows
Tax exemptions to various sectors cost Pakistan more than $21 billion this year, a higher amount than the $17 billion the country is required to repay against its maturing commercial and bilateral external debt, according to the latest economic survey. Unveiled by Finance Minister Muhammad Aurangzeb on Monday, the Economic Survey of Pakistan 2024-25 documents various economic developments and indicators in a fiscal year. According to the document, the cost of tax exemptions surged to a record Rs 5.8 trillion in the current fiscal year (2024-25), a rise of nearly Rs 2 trillion in the first year of the present government from the previous fiscal year's Rs 3.9 trillion. The Express Tribune newspaper reported that in dollar terms, the cost of tax losses was $21 billion, substantially higher than the $17 billion Pakistan is required to repay this year against its maturing commercial and bilateral external debt owed to China, Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates, and Kuwait. The survey showed that the jump in tax expenditure figure this year reflects a Rs 1.96 trillion or 51 per cent increase, despite the Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) government removing several exemptions in its last budget. Despite multiple rounds of withdrawing tax concessions and exemptions, the amount has continued to rise annually, according to the economic survey. These exemptions, approved over the years, are protected under three distinct tax laws. The survey reported sales tax exemptions worth Rs 4.3 trillion in the outgoing fiscal year, compared to Rs 2.9 trillion in the previous year, a nearly 50 per cent rise. Income tax exemptions totalled Rs 801 billion in the outgoing fiscal year, up 68 per cent from Rs 477 billion last year, according to the Federal Board of Revenue's estimates. This increase came despite the government's decision to shift more tax burdens onto salaried individuals while sparing other sectors like retailers. Customs duty exemptions increased to Rs 786 billion this fiscal year, up Rs 243 billion or 45 per cent from Rs 543 billion last year, the survey showed. The reported Rs 5.8 trillion in "tax expenditures for 2025" casts doubt on the credibility of previously published losses, according to the report. Despite efforts by successive governments to scale back and eliminate tax expenditures, it continues to grow steadily. According to the newspaper, this indicates either the introduction of numerous hidden tax exemptions during the fiscal year or the understatement of the prior year's figures. There has been no extraordinary increase in economic activity to justify such a sharp spike in tax exemption costs, according to the report.
