certificates of deposit to meet funding requirements amid tighter liquidity conditions after the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) implemented steps to drain out surplus funds with lenders. From August 18 to August 23, banks have issued certificates of deposit worth Rs 21,470 crore in the primary market, data provided by industry sources showed. The amount issued over just that period is more than half of the sum of Rs 40,625 crore issued in the whole of July, with private banks leading the pack, the data showed. The acceleration in the issuance of CDs — which are short-term debt instruments used by banks to raise funds —— comes after the RBI imposed an incremental Cash Reserve Ratio (ICRR) of 10% on the growth in bank deposits from May 19 to July 28. The ICRR requirement, which became effective from the fortnight beginning August 12, is estimated to have impounded funds worth around Rs 1.1 trillion from banks. The central bank will review the ICRR by September 8. “With the implementation of ICRR for a brief period, the tightness in the banking system liquidity is cropping up. As a measure to address this additional fund, private banks have resorted to issuing certificates of deposits (CDs), especially banks with relatively less access to easy deposit,” analysts from India Ratings & Research wrote.

will have to obtain permission from all holders of non-convertible debt securities within 15 working days of receiving the notification of delisting. The present rule allows entities to delist by giving a prior intimation to the stock exchange about the meeting of the board of directors, where the proposal for a voluntary delisting is considered. Unlike equity, wherein approval by a threshold majority is sufficient for approval of delisting, in the new framework, approval of 100 per cent of the debt security holders has been mandated for delisting of debt securities. This is because, unlike equity which is a perpetual instrument, listed debt securities have a finite term to maturity. In its notification issued on August 23, Sebi said the new framework for delisting of non-convertible debt securities would allow all listed non-convertible debt securities to be delisted voluntarily. However, entities would not be authorised to delist certain securities while selectively listing others. Also, it would not apply to the delisting of non-convertible debt securities in certain situations such as delisting as a consequence of any penalty or action initiated against the listed entity by stock exchanges; delisting pursuant to the redemption of the non-convertible debt securities. Further, the mechanism would not apply to the delisting of a listed entity's non-convertible debt securities that have been delisted under a resolution plan authorised under the Insolvency Code. In case of delisting pursuant to a resolution plan as per the provisions of the Insolvency Code, the details of delisting of non-convertible debt securities will be disclosed to the stock exchanges within one working day of the approval of the resolution plan

electric scooters that have become ubiquitous in Paris and other cities worldwide will be banned in the French capital on September 1. It is the biggest metropolis to remove the app-based devices that first zoomed onto streets in 2018, but many other cities have taken action on the vehicles that can inspire love or loathing. While users hail them as eco-friendly ways to avoid gridlock, detractors consider them as an unsightly menace with the power to maim and kill. Here is a look at the state of play in other cities worldwide:Paris: the pioneer The French capital was an early adopter of e-scooters in 2018, when the pavements were soon strewn with discarded rental devices from the first operator, Lime. After an uproar over the anarchy and a number of fatal accidents, the city clamped down, reducing the number of operators to three (Dott, Lime and Tier) and the number of scooters to 15,000. For privately owned scooters, the minimum age for riders is 12 (the government wants to raise that to 14), but the Paris rental operators said last November they would step up enforcement of a minimum age of 18 — after city officials warned their licenses were in jeopardy. They also must be parked in designated spots and riders are not allowed to go over 10 kilometres per hour in most parts of Paris — but many do anyway. In April, residents voted in a referendum to ban rental scooters, a move that will not impact privately owned devices.Barcelona and Montreal: outright bans A few cities before Paris have taken the same drastic measures with an outright ban. Barcelona outlawed rental scooters on public roads in 2018.
