    Stock Market Scams in India INTRODUCTION Introduction Financial scams have a habit of cropping up with an alarming regularity in the Indian financial system. We have reconciled to financial irregularities to such an extent that we simply do not pay heed to smaller scams that take place around us on a daily basis. I am, or rather was, a part of the financial machinery for a few years, and trust me even the private sector is not entirely free of the machinations of unscrupulous and enterprising scamsters. The scope of the money involved multiplies manifold in the public sector, with a corresponding drop in accountability. India has seen some of the most high-profile scandals where investors have lost billions of rupees just because a few people in high places could not control their greed. The Satyam Computer Services fraud is neither the first nor will it be the last corporate scam to have hit India, so investors must be on guard and ask for more information before making any investment decision, says former Sebi chairman M Damodaran. But with corporates, brokers, banks, politicians, regulators colluding at times, many a multi- crore scam has hit India. And the saga is likely to go on. India has seen some of the most high-profile scandals where investors have lost billions of rupees just because a few people in high places could not control their greed. Over the Years there have been numerous fraud and scandals in the Indian Stock Market. These scams have had a very major impact on the stock markets.

    Indian Black Money Abroad In Secret Banks and Tax Havens Second Report Of The Task Force on the steps to be taken by India Members Shri Gurumurthy, Chartered Accountant, Chennai Shri Ajit Doval, former Director Intelligence Bureau, Delhi Prof R.Vaidyanathan, Professor of Finance Indian Institute of Management, Bangalore Shri Mahesh Jethmalani, Senior Advocate, Mumbai Submitted to BHARATIYA JANATA PARTY 1 I. The First Interim Report The first Interim Report of the Task Force appointed by the Bharatiya Janata Party was released to the public on 17-04-2009. Afterward different world governments, particularly those in the West, have increasingly begun targeting tax havens and intensely began pursuing black money. The US, and France particularly began a huge campaign against the evil of black money. The estimates black money lodged in tax havens by global financial institutions like the International Monetary Fund reached as high as $18 trillion. The instability in the global financial order itself was traced to the evil money. So the issue has now acquired a totally different dimension. In the first Interim Report, the Task Force had suggested broad national and global strategy for dealing with the menace of black money out of the country. The substance of the recommendations of the Task Force in the First Interim Report is summarized here: Global Strategy: • Creating a powerful public opinion and broad national consensus on the issue. Those who do not support the move should be seen as supporters of black economy. • India must become a very active player in the G-20 efforts against secret banking and tax havens.

  • Electioneering in India 2009
    Convergence of the Conventional and the New Media : Electioneering in India 2009 © Institute of Management Studies, Noida Dr Kiran Thakur * Online access at www.publishingindia.com The election campaigns for the Indian Parliament (Lok Sabha or People’s House) in April 2009 demonstrated how the poll battles were fought deploying a mix of the traditional campaigning methods and information and communication technologies. The political parties and candidates used the mix to woo over 453 million voters who chose representatives of the 543 constituencies to govern India, the world’s largest democratic nation. Gandhinagar was among the hotly contested constituencies where the use of new technologies and the Internet was made more imperative. It also witnessed the time-tested traditional campaign methods being used to attract voters. Among the candidates was a towering 81-year political personality, Mr L K Advani, who was projected as Prime Minister-in-Waiting by his Bharatiya Janata Party. His local managers orchestrated the campaign using the mix of the conventional tools through a network of grass-root workers and youngsters of the cyberage. His Congress rival Suresh Patel, and 1.

  • Analysis of Corporate Frauds in India from Ethical Perspective
    Analysis of Corporate Frauds in India from ethical perspective Karanam Nagaraja Rao Alliance University ([email protected]) ISBN: 978-81-924713-8-9 Business ethics is of paramount importance as many top organizations are continued to be marred by plethora of scandals and frauds. Corporate frauds result in loss of market capitalization and brand image of the organizations. They are alarmingly prevalent across countries, and across sectors of the economy. This conceptual paper highlights some of the major corporate frauds since independence and their repercussions on social and economic fabric of India. Keeping sustainability as a fulcrum, it attempts to suggest steps that companies can and must adhere for running their businesses ethically and thereby minimizing, if not eradicating the corporate frauds. Key words: Corporate Frauds, Sustainability, Business Ethics. 1. Introduction Section 17 of the Indian Contract Act defines “Fraud” as "Fraud" means and includes any of the following acts committed by a party to a contract, or with his connivance, or by his agents, with intent to deceive another party thereto his agent, or to induce him to enter into a contract. Corporate Fraud as defined by CIMA (Chartered Institute of Management Accountants) is ‘a type of fraud that essentially involves using deception to make personal gain for oneself dishonestly and/or create a loss for others’. To better understand frauds we can look at it from different views. For example, we can look if a fraud is internal or external to the organization that was involved or had gotten involved with fraudulent acts. Almost 75% of corporate surveyed in India felt the overall incidence of fraud was raising.

The elections witnessed the return of the incumbent Indian National Congress- led United Progressive Alliance (UPA) coalition to power in New Delhi for a second consecutive term. The performance of the Congress, India’s ‘grand old party’, which had steadily declined over a period of two-and-a-half decades until the 2004 elections when it won 145 seats, improved further in these elections. For the first time since 1991, the centre-left party was able to win more than 200 seats (206 to be precise) in the 543-member Lok Sabha. Its closest rival, the right-wing Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP), whose performance had been on the rise between 1984 (when it had secured just two seats in the Lok Sabha) until 1999 (when the party won 182 seats) and, thereafter, declined in 2004 (137 seats), saw its position decline further (116 seats) in 2009. As a result of the first-past-the-post system of Parliamentary democracy in India, the change in the number of seats of the two largest political parties was not reflected in their vote shares.
