Just write 1 CC paper for CS Executive/Professional/Foundation programme, instead of 3 CC papers per subject but to secure 40% marks

Sure, this is a very happy announcement for every student of ICSI!!!  CC papers, headaches (as knowledge is put into head)? agreed, not any more!!! as the requirement is relaxed.  Yes, I know every one is now so excited to read further.  Enjoy writin….

It has been decided to rationalize the criteria for issue of Coaching Completion Certificates (CC) papers vis-à-vis submission of Response Sheets with immediate effect which is as follows [which is even applicable for December 2009 exams].  Keeping in view the above decision, the students are advised to send at least one Response Sheet for each subject to make him/ her eligible for issue of Coaching Completion Certificate. It is further to clarify that he/ she has to secure minimum 40% marks in each subject for issue of Coaching Completion Certificate. [Source]

As every one is aware that one has to submit CC papers on or before August 2009 for being eligible to attend December 2009 CS exam.

Also you are aware of the pilot project of ICSI viz CS CC papers online for CA CWA final students or with 4 years of experience, by sending it in e-mail to ICSI, only for Company Law of Executive Programme

Now, every student of ICSI can submit merely ONE CC PAPER (from 3 of the COMPULSORY test paper given at the end of the ICSI study material) for every subject PROVIDED atleast you secure 40% marks in every subject.

However, students will be at liberty to send maximum response sheets to the Institute and all such response sheets will be evaluated and returned to them for their reference/ guidance.

Enjoy writin…

GDR holder is not a member until transfer or redemption, neither Overseas Depository Bank is a nominee or beneficial owner – MCA clarification

Ministry of Corporate Affairs (MCA) vide its General Circular No. 1/2009 [No.17/67/2009 CL-V] dated 16th June 2009 has clarified that a Global Depository Receipt (GDR) holder is NOT a member as,

• Under Section 41(1) & 41(2) of Companies Act, 1956, a GDR holders name is neither entered as Subscriber to Memorandum (MoA) nor in Register of Members (RoM)
• Under Section 41(3) of Companies Act, 1956, a Overseas Depository Bank under GDR is neither a Depository (as per Depositories Act, 1996) nor holds share as a Beneficial Owner (BO).

Thus, holder of GDR may become a Member only on Transfer or Redemption into Underlying Equity Shares.  Though the underlying shares on transfer/redemption is allotted to Overseas Depository Bank, it canNOT be considered as Nominee of GDR holder for the purpose of Section 41 & 42 of Companies Act, 1956

No Delivery Period for all corporate actions of demat securities, SEBI amends

SEBI vide circular no. SEBI/CFD/DIL/LA/1/2009/24/04 dated April 24, 2009 has reduced the notice period from companies to stock exchanges to atleast 7 working days for all types of corporate actions.

It is decided to do away with ‘no-delivery period’ for all types of corporate actions in respect of the scrips which are traded in the compulsory dematerialised mode and accordingly, short deliveries, if any, of the shares traded on cum-basis may be directly closed out.

In case of such direct close-out, the mark-up price would be as stated in SEBI circular no. SMD/POLICY/Cir-08/2002 dated April 16, 2002.

No. LAD-NRO/GN/2009-10/11/167759 dated 29th June 2009

No entry load for all Mutual Fund (MF) scheme,all expenses out of 1% Exit load & disclosure of all commissions to distributors from 1st August 2009

SEBI Mutual Fund amendments

a) There shall be no entry load for all mutual fund schemes.
b) The scheme application forms shall carry a suitable disclosure to the effect that the upfront commission to distributors will be paid by the investor directly to the distributor, based on his assessment of various factors including the service rendered by the distributor.
c) Of the exit load or Contingent Deferred Sales Charge (CDSC) charged to the investor, a maximum of 1% of the redemption proceeds shall be maintained in a separate account which can be used by the Asset Management Company (AMC) to pay commissions to the distributor and to take care of other marketing and selling expenses. Any balance shall be credited to the scheme immediately.
d) The distributors should disclose all the commissions (in the form of trail commission or any other mode) payable to them for the different competing schemes of various mutual funds from amongst which the scheme is being recommended to the investor. [Regulation 77 of SEBI (Mutual Funds) Regulations, 1996]

AMCs shall follow the provisions pertaining in clause 5(2)(b) of SEBI Circular SEBI/IMD/CIR No. 5/126096/08 dated May 23, 2008 regarding updation of Scheme Information Document (SID) and Key Information Memorandum (KIM) in this respect.

Applicability
This circular shall be applicable for
a. Investments in mutual fund schemes (including additional purchases and switch-in to a scheme from other schemes) with effect from August 1, 2009 ;
b. Redemptions from mutual fund schemes (including switch-out from other schemes) with effect from August 1, 2009 ;
c. New mutual fund schemes launched on and after August 1, 2009; and
d. Systematic Investment Plans (SIP) registered on or after August 1, 2009.

Source: Mutual Funds - Empowering investors through transparency in payment of commission and load structure

Relevant Existing provisions

1. SEBI had earlier abolished initial issue expenses and mutual fund schemes were allowed to recover expenses connected with sales and distribution through entry load only. Further, investors making direct applications to the mutual funds were exempted
from entry load.
2. In terms of existing arrangement, though the investor pays for the services rendered by the mutual fund distributors, distributors are remunerated by Asset Management Companies (AMCs) from loads deducted from the invested amounts or the redemption proceeds. SEBI (Mutual Funds) Regulations, 1996 also permit AMCs to charge the scheme (under the annual recurring expense) for marketing and selling expenses including distributor’s commission.
3. Further, all loads including Contingent Deferred Sales Charge (CDSC) for the scheme are maintained in a separate account and this amount is used by the AMCs to pay commissions to the distributors and to take care of other marketing and selling expenses. It has been left to the AMCs to credit any surplus in this
account to the scheme, whenever felt appropriate. In order to incentivise long term investors it is considered necessary that exit loads/CDSCs which are beyond reasonable levels are credited to the scheme immediately.

Attention of Authorized Dealer Category - I (AD Category - I) banks is invited to the A.P. (DIR Series) Circular No. 46 dated January 2, 2009 relating to External Commercial Borrowings (ECB).

On a review, it has been decided to modify some aspects of the ECB policy vide RBI/2008-09/517 A.P. (DIR Series) Circular No.71 dated 30th June 2009 as indicated below:

(i) ECB for Integrated Township
As per the extant policy, corporates, engaged in the development of integrated township, as defined in Press Note 3 (2002 Series) dated January 04, 2002, issued by DIPP, Ministry of Commerce & Industry, Government of India are permitted to avail of ECB, under the Approval route, until June 2009 [which is extended to 31st December 2009], still under RBI approval route.

(ii) ECB for NBFC sector
As per the current ECB norms, Non-Banking Finance Companies (NBFCs), which are exclusively involved in financing of the infrastructure sector, are permitted to avail of ECBs from multilateral / regional financial institutions and Government owned development financial institutions for on-lending to the borrowers in the infrastructure sector under the Approval route, subject, inter-alia, to the condition that the direct lending portfolio of these lenders vis-à-vis their total ECB lending to NBFCs, at any point of time, should not be less than 3:1 [the ratio is dispensed from 1st July 2009], still under RBI approval route.

However, ECB shall not be permissible for development of integrated township and commercial real estate within the SEZ.
