    March 19, 2021 Shri Jayant Sinha Chairman, Standing committee of finance Member of Parliament [Lok Sabha] India Subject: Request for wider debate on Equalisation Levy Respected Shri Jayant Sinha ji, Our associations are a collection of the world’s most innovative companies, representing every sector of the economy. We are substantial contributors to a vibrant Indian economy. For all of us, India is an essential market in which many of our members are deeply invested, and all of our members are committed to the Government of India’s goal of making India a $5.0 trillion economy by 2025. We write to raise concerns regarding the amendment to India’s Equalisation Levy included in the Government of India’s proposed Finance Bill to the Union Budget 2021-22. As detailed below, the amendment would create significant challenges for all businesses operating in India, further exacerbating the detrimental impact of a measure at odds with India’s ongoing commitment to the multilateral negotiations at the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD)/G20 Inclusive Framework to address the tax challenges arising from the digitalisation of the global economy. The G20 Finance Ministers – including Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman – reiterated as recently as February 26 their support for the Inclusive Framework’s timeline of realising a multilateral, consensus- based agreement by mid-2021. It is in the spirit of support for a multilateral solution that we encourage the Parliament to refrain from adopting the amendment proposed to sections 163-165A of the Finance Act, 2016, which, despite its characterization by the Ministry of Finance as clarifications and an amendment, would fundamentally expand the scope of the Equalisation Levy and generate a range of new compliance questions and concerns.

TB-Free India Summit hosted by the International Union Against Tuberculosis and Lung Disease (The Union) and Global Fund Champion Anurag Thakur, (chief whip – BJP and Member of Parliament) and supported by the Global Fund to Fight Aids, Tuberculosis and Malaria (Global Fund). Saturday 2 February 2018 (New Delhi, India) – Some 65 Indian Policymakers will participate in a round-robin cricket tournament at the Major Dhyan Chand National Stadium this weekend to highlight their commitment to eliminating tuberculosis in India. The tournament will also feature the adjunct TB-Free India Summit with speakers including, JP Nadda, Union Minister of Health and Family Welfare, Satyendra Kumar Jain, Health Minister for Delhi, Chief Whip and Member of Parliament and Global Fund Champion, Anurag Singh Thakur, a number of Chief Ministers from various Indian states and representatives of the Global Fund, The Union, the World Health Organization, USAID and the community affected by TB.

In May 2011, the state witnessed the emergence of the homegrown Peoples’ Party of Punjab (PPP), led by Manpreet Singh Badal, the estranged nephew of Chief Minister and veteran Akali leader, Parkash Singh Badal. Manpreet’s forays into the political arena, as the leader of the third front has added a new twist to the state’s politics, as for the first time an alternative appears to be in sight. Though it remains to be seen as to how he fits into the political scene post-2012 elections, observers see Manpreet as a “marathon runner”, who BACK IN THE actually has his eyes set on 2017 elections.
