    Europe India Chamber of Commerce Issue: 46 Volume: 4 December 2011 Flanders in action with Global India Business on agenda The Global India Business Meeting (GIBM) to be held in Antwerp on 24-25 June 2012 received a wide coverage in the press and media in India and in Europe when the Minister-President of the Flemish government Mr. Kris Peeters, during his visit to India last fortnight, declared that the GIBM 2012 will be the most important business conclave for European and Indian business of the year 2012. The Flemish government which will host the Horasis business event, often described as the regional version of the World Economic Forum, is collaborating with EICC and other stakeholders in the preparation of the meeting. More than 300 business leaders and industrialists from India and Europe will participate. The Indian Commerce and Industry Minister Mr. Anand Sharma whom Mr. Peeters met in New Delhi will be the chief guest and address the meeting. The trade and economic relations between India and Belgium has been going from strength to strength with India being an important investor in the Flanders with investment of about 1.2 billion Euros. Over 50 Indian companies in the field of ICT, Pharma, Transport and Machinery equipment have established their presence. Top CEOs and selected business executives will discuss issues like trade and investment, finance, green tech, etc. The GIBM will be held in a very unsettled and fluid global business environment and the Eurozone economic crisis will offer the participant opportunities to debate on the global economy and what solution they think both India and Europe can help tide over the crisis.

  • JRD Denims Limited 07 Nov 2018 Brickwork Ratings Assigns BWR
    Rating Rationale JRD Denims Limited 07 Nov 2018 Brickwork Ratings assigns BWR BBB-/A3 for the Bank Loan Facilities of ​ Rs. 112.00 Crores of JRD Denims Limited (‘JRDDL’ or ‘the Company’) Particulars Facility* Amount (Rs. Crs) Tenure Rating1 ​ Fund based Cash Credit 20.00 BWR BBB- Long Term (Pronounced as BWR Triple B Minus) Term Loans 85.00^ (Outlook: Stable) Non Fund Based Bank Guarantee BWR A3 7.00 Short Term (Pronounced as BWR A Three) Total 112.00 (Rupees One Hundred Twelve Crores Only) 1 For​ definitions of the rating symbol please visit our website www.brickworkratings.com ​ *Annexure I show details of bank loan facilities;^ includes undisbursed portion of Rs. 25.00 crs Rationale/Description of Key Rating Drivers/Rating sensitivities: Brickwork Ratings (BWR) has essentially relied upon the audited financial results of the Company upto FY18, provisional financials of H1FY19, projected financials, publicly available information and information/clarifications provided by the management. The ratings draw strength from the experience of the promoters in the textile industry through group entities, timely commissioning of Phase I of the project, DSRA structure for the term loans, locational advantages and healthy order book position. The ratings are constrained by the project execution risk and delay in completion of Phase II, limited experience of the promoters in the denim sector, susceptibility of margins to fluctuation in prices of raw materials, seasonality associated with the availability of raw materials, intensely competitive textile industry and working capital intensive operations. Going forward, the Company’s ability to stabilise and achieve optimal operations in Phase I, achieve completion of Phase II as anticipated without any significant time and cost overruns, ensure timely funding, strengthen its credit profile and manage its working capital efficiently will be the key rating sensitivities.

    AIBEA’s Banking News 3 MAY 2018 NEWS BULLETIN FROM ALL INDIA BANK EMPLOYEES’ ASSOCIATION ‘Struggle for a living wage continues’ BY NOMAZIMA NKOSI AND ODETTE PARFITT - 02 May 2018 HERALDLIFE President Cyril Ramaphosa arrives at the Wolfson Stadium Arriving to a hero‘s welcome at Port Elizabeth‘s Isaac Wolfson Stadium yesterday, President Cyril Ramaphosa hailed the new national minimum wage as a historic victory for workers. He was addressing a sea of red-clad Cosatu members and supporters who had packed the 10 000-seat Kwazakhele stadium to celebrate National Workers‘ Day. ―This is a victory no matter what other people may say,‖ Ramaphosa said. 1 ―We knew R20 an hour was not a living wage, but we needed to form a foundation. ―If we said workers had to earn R15 000, many people would lose their jobs and companies would [have to] close. ―We concluded that the struggle for a living wage must continue but we must start somewhere. ―This is a struggle that you as workers must wage.‖ Ramaphosa credited Cosatu for the start of minimum wage negotiations, saying the labour federation had identified the need as enshrined in the Freedom Charter. He also called for equal pay for men and women workers, and said while the government wanted to protect workers‘ right to strike, they should do so responsibly. ―We must look very carefully at how we engage in our industrial action. ―Recently, we‘ve found some workers have prevented others from doing important work, such as helping women give birth. ―Let us have that humanity that, even when we are on strike, certain services are important.

  • Forced Evictions Due to Commonwealth Games Violate Human Rights, Contribute to a Permanent Negative Social Legacy
    Housing and Land Rights Network PRESS RELEASE New Delhi, October 13, 2010 Forced Evictions due to Commonwealth Games Violate Human Rights, Contribute to a Permanent Negative Social Legacy The preparations for Delhi’s Commonwealth Games (CWG) have witnessed a range of human rights violations of the city’s working poor, including the homeless, beggars, street vendors, and construction workers. The process has also been marred by financial mismanagement, embezzlement of public funds, and lack of accountability. One of the least reported violations, however, has been the forced eviction and demolition of the homes of thousands of Delhi’s residents. These evictions have taken place for various reasons ranging from constructing stadiums, building parking lots, widening roads, city ‘beautification,’ and clearing of streets on grounds of ‘security.’ Housing and Land Rights Network (HLRN) has been involved in a study on forced evictions carried out due to the Commonwealth Games in Delhi. HLRN estimates that at least 250,000 people in Delhi have lost their homes as a direct result of the Games since 2004. A table of some of the demolished sites is included below. While the study is still ongoing, preliminary findings from a few sites reveal the following characteristics of forced evictions: 1. Failure to provide notice and reason for the demolition; due process not followed In majority of the cases, authorities did not provide a notice for the demolition. The only exceptions were Dargah Bhure Shah Camp, Viklang Basti, and Madrasi Camp (notice pasted two days before the demolition). The usual trend has been of police threatening people to vacate the area on the evening before the demolition.
