  • ‘Cryptocurrency Ban Could Lead to More Unlawful Usage’, Says BACC

    New Delhi, November 25: The Blockchain and Crypto Assets Council (BACC), which is part of the Internet and Mobile Association of India (IAMAI) on Thursday said a blanket ban on cryptocurrencies will encourage non-state players, thereby leading to more unlawful usage of such currencies.

    BACC’s statement comes days after the government listed for introduction in Parliament a bill to ban all private cryptocurrencies, with some exceptions. Also Read | Reddit To Shut Down Dubsmash on February 22, 2022.

    In a statement, IAMAI said there would be several negative outcomes of a ban such as zero accountability and traceability of the origin and end usage of the cryptocurrencies; besides a complete evasion of taxes. A ban will also adversely impact retail investors, it added. Also Read | Truecaller Version 12 With Video Caller ID, Redesigned UI & Call Recording Features Launched for Android.

    The Council has always argued in favour of prohibiting the usage of private cryptocurrencies as a currency in India by law since usage as currency is likely to interfere with monetary policy and fiscal controls, the statement said.

    On the other hand, the Council has advocated their use only as an asset. The Council said it believes that a smartly regulated crypto assets business will protect investors, help monitor Indian buyers and sellers, lead to better taxation of the industry, and limit illegal usage of cryptos.

    Crypto exchanges based in India offer an effective instrument of monitoring and are dedicated to creating an ecosystem that guarantees investor protection besides bringing both the investors and exchanges under proper tax laws, the statement said.

    The Council said it believes that the efforts of the exchanges should be supported by a law that should enable them to provide safer services to investors and fair taxes to the government.

    ‘The Cryptocurrency and Regulation of Official Digital Currency Bill, 2021’, to be introduced in the winter session of Parliament beginning November 29, seeks to “create a facilitative framework for the creation of the official digital currency to be issued by the Reserve Bank of India.

    The bill also seeks to prohibit all private cryptocurrencies in India, however, it allows for certain exceptions to promote the underlying technology of cryptocurrency and its uses”.

    The Blockchain and Crypto Assets Council (BACC) represents crypto exchanges based in India and includes companies like CoinDCX, WazirX, and Coinswitch Kuber.

  • Least-industrialized states lead the recovery of electricity demand

    Least-industrialized states lead the recovery of electricity demand

    India’s less industrialized states have led the recovery in electricity demand that began in September, a Reuters analysis of government data shows.

    Electricity use in less industrialized states like Bihar and Chhattisgarh in the east and Uttar Pradesh and Punjab in the north, increased by 10% over the previous year, ending on March 31 for both the quarter and six months, data showed. .

    All these states – which have high agricultural and residential electricity consumption – consumed more electricity than the previous year, although India’s annual electricity demand fell for the first time in at least 35 years in 2020/21.

    The implementation of the coronavirus lockdown has led to a decline in power consumption for six straight months through August, but consumption has risen for seven consecutive months, with usage in March growing at the fastest pace in 11years.

    Industries and offices account for half of the country’s annual electricity consumption. Senior government leaders, including Prime Minister Narendra Modi, have cited an improvement in power demand as a sign that the economy is also recovering from its worst recession in decades.

    According to an analysis of daily load dispatch data from the federal electricity grid regulator POSOCO, more industrialized states such as Maharashtra, Tamil Nadu and Gujarat saw a decline in annual electricity usage during 2020/21.

    The increase in electricity demand in Maharashtra and Tamil Nadu has lagged behind the national average in the last seven years, but consumption in Gujarat has grown faster than the national average during that period, government data shows.

    During the latest quarter, power consumption in India’s most industrialized state Maharashtra grew by 7.3%.

    However, Tamil Nadu – where a large number of major automakers are located – saw a 2.8% drop in its electricity consumption in the same period.

    Consumption grew by 9.4% in the western state of Gujarat during the quarter, but it fell largely in Karnataka – a southern state with a large tech industry.

    WhatsApp has hired an Amazon executive to lead its payments business in India, two sources told Reuters that the Messenger service is set to expand in the fast-growing sector.

    Manish Mahatme, who has worked on Amazon Pay for almost seven years, will soon join WhatsApp’s payment service, sources said on Friday.

    WhatsApp and Amazon Pay were not immediately available for comment. Mahatme declined to comment.

    With more than 500 million users, WhatsApp counts India as its largest market, where it is the latest entry into India’s digital payments sector, which PwC and Indian industry body ASSOCHAM say will be in place by 2023. The value is 135 billion dollars.

    WhatsApp received a much delayed approval for the launch of its payment system in India last year, but so far its rollout has been capped by regulators at 20 million users.

    But it has huge ambitions and a deal by Facebook last year to invest $ 5.7 billion in the digital unit of Jio Platforms, a billionaire Mukesh Ambani, that would allow WhatsApp to offer payment services to millions of mom-and-pop stores.
