  • Hospitality Body FHRAI Pleads PM Narendra Modi, Others for Fiscal Measures to Avoid ‘Complete Crumble’
    Hospitality body FHRAI pleads PM Narendra Modi, others for fiscal measures to avoid ‘complete crumble’ Hotels and restaurants body Federation of Hotel & Restaurant Associations of India (FHRAI) in a representation to Prime Minister Narendra Modi has pleaded for special fiscal measures to rescue the hospitality industry from severe Covid impact. In the representation, which was also submitted to Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman, MSME Minister Nitin Gadkari, and Tourism Minister Prahlad Singh Patel, the federation requested for a three-year moratorium extension on all loans, complete waiver on the interest of loans from March 2020 till the time businesses are normalized, and a stimulus package for the industry’s working capital requirements. Hospitality has been among the sectors including aviation, realty, retail, etc., that have taken severe Covid beating. As per industry estimates, a majority of the hospitality sector, which comprises micro and small-sized hotels and restaurants, has witnessed revenues plunging with multiple outlets and properties either shut or on the brink of closure amid the second wave of the pandemic. Since March 2020, the industry has been struggling to manage its statutory and capital expenditure obligations. Without a moratorium on EMIs and interest payments, the sector will completely crumble According to the industry figures highlighted by FHRAI, the hotel industry’s total revenue in FY20 was Rs 1.82 lakh crore while around 75 per cent (over Rs 1.30 lakh crore) of FY21 revenue is estimated to be wiped off. As per the data, on the deployment of gross bank credit to the hospitality sector, from the Reserve Bank of India’s April bulletin, the outstanding amount for tourism, hotels, and restaurants as of February 26, 2021, stood at Rs 48,102 crore, up from Rs 45,184 crore as of February 28, 2020.

    July 28, 2021 – Wednesday Key Developments Parliamentary panel: Stimulus package for economy, MSMEs inadequate; detailed study on MSME losses must Even as the government had announced a stimulus package last year for the economic revival post-Covid, it has been “found to be inadequate as the measures adopted were more of loan offering and long-term measures instead of improving the cash flow to generate demand as immediate relief,” said a report by the department-related Parliamentary Standing Committee on Industry tabled in Rajya Sabha on Tuesday. The report noted that in the process of economic recovery post-first wave of the pandemic, the second wave even more vigorously ripped the economy particularly the MSME Sector. The Committee recommended the government to “immediately come out with a larger economic package aimed at bolstering demand, investment, exports, and employment generation to help the economy, including MSMEs.” The government had last year launched the Rs 3 lakh crore Emergency Credit Line Guarantee Scheme (ECLGS) — as part of the Rs 20 lakh crore stimulus package – equivalent to 10 per cent of India’s GDP – to help MSMEs recover from the Covid impact. The scheme’s limit was recently enhanced to Rs 4.5 lakh crore. https://www.financialexpress.com/industry/sme/msme-eodb-parliamentary-panel-stimulus-package-for- economy-msmes-inadequate-detailed-study-on-msme-losses-must/2298770/ Govt seeks extension till January 9 for framing CAA rules: Minister The central government has sought extension till January 9 for framing rules of the Citizenship Amendment Act (CAA), which was passed by Parliament in 2019, Minister of State for Home Affairs Nityanand Rai informed Lok Sabha on Tuesday.He was replying to a question from Congress MP Gaurav Gogoi on whether the government had missed the deadline to frame and notify CAA rules and the steps taken in this context.
