The spotlight, according to some immigration experts, will shift towards the EB-5-based US immigration visa, which is investment-linked. At present, such visas issued to Indians remain in the three-digit figure, but with it probably being the easiest route to set foot on American soil, the number of applications could go up significantly. Mark I Davies, global chairperson of Davies & Associates, a US immigrant investor visa firm, says, "Trump's win in the Presidential Elections will be beneficial for EB-5 visa applicants. Such visas, issued to Indians remain in the three-digit figure, will see a rise if they remain the easiest route to set foot on While some of our clients have expressed concern with a Trump victory, we believed that American soil. their concerns will be short-lived, it will cause more Indians to apply for an EB-5-based US immigrant visa." Trump has previously used the EB-5 visa program as a source of funding for some of his real estate projects.

    New drivers are not signing up with Ola & Uber The slowing growth in fleet sizes is emblematic of a market that is maturing and stabilising after nearly a half decade of frenzied growthShashwati Shankar | ET Bureau | June 01, 2017, 07:35 IST inShare A large number of taxi drivers have quit Ola and Uber and not many new ones are signing up, but that might be a good thing. Analysts and company executives ET spoke with said more than 10,000 drivers have left Ola and Uber in Bengaluru alone in the past two years, as the companies gradually lowered the heady incentives they used to lure the drivers. Also, driver registrations plunged from 300-350 a day in 2016 to 40-50 this year across Bengaluru, Mumbai and Delhi. Even so, analysts said, the slowing growth in fleet sizes is emblematic of a market that is maturing and stabilising after nearly a half decade of frenzied growth that was beginning to affect operations. “While the supply (of drivers and vehicles) has dropped from 2016 to 2017, it is stabilising and the market is slowly showing signs of maturing,“ said Jaspal Singh, partner at Valoriser Consultants. “Newer drivers coming on board are aware that the incentives and salaries offered are lower than what they were last year.They are more prepared to work longer hours for lower wages in the pursuit of owning a car in the long run.“ Many of the drivers who have dropped off the platforms were earning ` Rs60,000 to 1 lakh a month in fares and incentives, he said.
