(xviii) SHRI DHANANJAY MAHADIK laid a statement regarding need to take measures for the welfare of pensioners under EPS-95. FINANCE BILL, 2016 - Contd. THE MINISTER OF FINANCE, MINISTER OF CORPORATE AFFAIRS AND MINISTER OF INFORMATION AND BROADCASTING (SHRI ARUN JAITLEY) replying said: The global economy continued to be a cause of concern. The earlier global growth rate was predicted to be 3.4 per cent but now it has been lowered to 3.1 per cent. It may even be lower than that. Asian economy is slightly better compared to the global economy because of the contribution of India and China which raises the average slightly. India is the fastest growing economy among the major countries. The assessment at present is that rains this year would be better compared to the previous year's and perhaps agricultural growth would improve leading to more rural income. The NPA situation in the banks is certainly a cause of concern and the Government is committed to overcome this and would completely support the banks in this regard. This year also capital would be provided to the banks. Management of banks should be professionalized. Some loans in this regard might have been given on wrong basis which would be investigated. The largest contribution in NPA is due to the steel sector. To solve this custom duties have been increased, certain other steps have been taken and minimum import price has been fixed. Similarly, projects related to highway sector had come to a complete standstill. The Government infused a lot of funds in the National Highway Authority and in the last two years highway sector is revived in a big way. The price of sugar has gone up slightly. The NPA regarding the sugar sector would improve gradually. Similarly, regarding the power distribution companies in states 'UDAY' scheme has been introduced. With these measures NPA situation is being addressed. Lot of questions were raised yesterday regarding direct-indirect taxation. Our total revenue for 2014-15 increased by 9.4 per cent. In the previous year this was about 17 per cent. For the first time in this year the actual expenditure exceeded the Budget estimates instead of being curtailed. The natural aim of the Government taxation policy is to take forward the Prime Minister's Make-in-India resolve. Hence, we make changes now and then to support domestic industry. Another aim is to increase employment in the country. To increase employment we have given lots of rebates this time in the housing sector. Tax on royalty has been reduced to 10 per cent from 25 per cent. Relief has been given for 'Start Ups.' We are gradually moving towards rationalization of corporate tax to align it with globally competitive economies. The Government's effort is that there should be minimum interaction between the Tax Department and the tax payers. Last year Rs.2.10 crore refunds were effected electronically to gradually to do away with interactions. The appeals filed by the department lead to increase in litigation so our target is to bring it down by fifty percent. In all the three budgets of this Government so far, we have tried to put more and more money in the hands of the small taxpayers. For the first time the exemption limit U/s 80C regarding investment has been enhanced from Rs.1 lakh to Rs.1.5 lakh so that the more the people save less would be tax and the savings would contribute in the development of the country. The aim of the Government is to create gradually a pensioned society- not only for the Government servants but for others too. Hence, one would get additional exemption of Rs.50,000 for investment made in the National Pension Scheme. The Government has increased the exemption regarding house property from Rs.1 lakh to Rs.1.5 lakh. If the person is buying first house then additional exemption of Rs.50,000 can be availed by him. Additionally, a taxpayers with income upto Rs.5 lakhs the deduction which was Rs.2,000 has been increased to Rs.5,000. For those living on rented properties the yearly exemption on rent is now Rs.60,000. The most important aspect I believe in this budget is that of presumptive income, done for the first time. There are a large number of professionals, architects, directors and self-employed persons in the country. They need not maintain any accounts. Simply a single page return needs to be filed while declaring their income. Similar facility has been extended to businessmen, traders and those running small workshops with yearly turnover upto Rs.2 crore. For the first time the Government has brought a law regarding declaration of foreign assets which need to be declared. Rs.6,500 crores were assessed in HSBC and Liechtenstein accounts. Large number of people came out with declaration under the black money law. Taxes were paid. Declaration was to the tune of Rs.4- 4.25 thousand crores. Apart from last year, we unearthed black money in the normal procedure through assessment and indirect taxation measures led to Rs.71,000 crore of black money.

    LOK SABHA ___ SYNOPSIS OF DEBATES (Proceedings other than Questions & Answers) ______ Thursday, February 25, 2016 / Phalguna 6, 1937 (Saka) ______ THE BUDGET (RAILWAYS)-2016-17 THE MINISTER OF RAILWAYS (SHRI SURESH PRABHU): I rise to present before this August House the Statement of Estimated Receipts and Expenditure for 2016-17 for Indian Railways. Let me begin with a couple of personal experiences. As the Railway Minister of India, I visit a number of places and meet a large number of people from all walks of life. On one visit to Mumbai Central station, I was pleasantly surprised to find a group of women engaged in cleaning. The station looked very clean. On seeing me, a lady came and thanked me for allowing her NGO to adopt the station. For the last five months she had been volunteering a day every month at the station. She said that she felt very happy to be contributing her little bit to this national cause. In another incident, Alok Tiwari, an inspector in the Railway Protection Force, recently deputed to the social media cell of the Railway Board, shared his sentiments. He is responsible for taking action on passengers‟ requests for help on social media. He said that for the first time in his professional career, he has realised how his little actions were making a huge difference in passengers‟ lives. He felt enthused and proud to be part of Indian Railways. It is people like these who are the soul of India and Indian Railways, and that is why this is not my Budget alone.
