Honda Motorcycle expands

CEO said, “We are deeply humbled by

we will strive to achieve even higher
benchmarks in customer satisfaction. We

Oil prices
down in Asia
SINGAPORE, MAR 23: Oil
prices fell in Asian trade
today after Saudi Arabia
said it was pumping more
oil, exacerbating a global
supply glut, analysts said.
US benchmark West Texas Intermediate (WTI) for
May delivery was down 57
cents at USD 46.00 and
Brent tumbled 43 cents to
USD 54.89. Daniel Ang, an
investment analyst with
Phillip Futures in Singapore, said it was “the
same fundamental issue of
supply and demand” affecting the market.
“Oil prices are falling because of the bearish sentiment that people have towards oil right now,” he told.
Prices have collapsed by
about 60 per cent since
June as global supplies of
the commodity, boosted by
strong production in the
United States and the
OPEC cartel, outpace demand. Bloomberg News
quoted Saudi Arabia’s oil
minister Ali al- Naimi as
saying yesterday that his
country is producing almost 10 mn barrels of
crude a day. Saudi Arabia,
the main producer in the
Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries
(OPEC), pumped 9.85 mn
barrels a day in February.

NEW DELHI, MAR 23: The government
today is believed to have alloted the three
cancelled coal blocks, for which JSPL and
Balco had emerged as the highest bidders in the recently concluded auctions,
to state-owned miner CIL.
“Three coal blocks —Gare Palma IV/1,
IV 2 and IV 3 under Schedule II mines
(blocks under production) have been today alloted to Coal India Ltd. JSPL and
Balco had been successful bidders for
these blocks,” a highly placed source
said.
The development comes amid Jindal
Steel and Power Ltd today moving the
Delhi High Court against the decision of
the Centre to cancel the coal blocks saying that the company apprehends that the
blocks might be allocated to someone
else as the government is “moving very
fast”.
The source said the government decided promptly to allot the blocks to Coal
India as the Supreme Court had allowed
companies to continue mining till March
31 in blocks where coal production had
already started.
Total reserves of the three mines amount
to 313.68 MT.
The government had cancelled four
blocks including Tara which falls under
Schedule III (ready for production) category on March 20 saying the bids were
undervalued and it will take a final call on
these soon after deliberations.

Sensex falls to 9-wk low on
F&O expiry caution, global cues
MUMBAI, MAR 23: Indian
markets fell for the fourth
straight session today with
benchmark Sensex dropping 69.06 points to nineweek low of 28,192.02 on
weak European cues and
caution ahead of expiry of
monthly derivative contracts. The NSE Nifty index
also edged down by 20
points to a fresh six-week
low of 8,550.90.
Selling was seen mainly
in select heavyweights in
IT, telecom, banking and
consumer
durable
counters. Small-cap and
mid-cap counters also
ended in the red. Overall,
about 920 stocks gained
while over 1900 fell on the
BSE. The benchmark S&P
BSE 30-share gauge resumed better and improved further to a high of
28,385.14 on firm Asian
trends on the back of rally
on Wall Street last weekend. However, selling after mid-session on weak
European cues ahead of a
key meeting between
heads of Greece and Germany pulled it down. It settle for the day at
28,192.02, a net fall of
69.06 points or 0.24 per
cent. This is its weakest
close since 28,121.89 on
January 16. Shares of Jindal Steel and Power Ltd
(JSPL) — a constituent of
50-share Nifty — ended
over 6 per cent down after
crashing as much as 15
per cent in morning trade
today after the government
rejected bids made by the
company during the auction of coal blocks held recently. Bucking the overall
weak trend in largecap
bluechips, Hindalco and
NTPC gained on good demand.
IT stocks dropped mainly due to rise in the rupee
value against the US dollar, said brokers. On the
global front, Asian stocks
closed higher. Key indices
from China, Hong Kong,
Japan and Taiwan rose
while those from Singapore and South Korea
ended slightly lower. In
Europe, France’s CAC index was down by 0.73 per
cent and Germany’s DAX
was trading 1.10 per cent
lower while the UK's FTSE
was up by 0.70 per cent.

bought shares worth a net
Rs 354.59 crore last Friday as per provisional data
by the stock exchanges.
Veracity Broking Services,
Head of Research,
Jignesh Chaudhary said:
“Local Indian markets traded volatile today. At the
start of the day, indices
opened in green and traded positively, but as the
day progressed indices
lost all its gain and eventually traded weak.”

scrips ended higher while
12 fell. Major losers in
Sensex include BHEL
(3.62 per cent), ICICI Bank

by Consumer Durable

The four coal blocks whose bids were
rejected include Gare IV/2, Gare Palma
IV/3 and Tara coal blocks in Chhattisgarh
in which JSPL had emerged as the highest bidder and Gare Palma IV/1 mine for
which Bharat Aluminium Company (Balco) had emerged as highest bidder.
Government re-examined the bids for
nine coal blocks in the recently held auction amid reports that some bidders could
have indulged in cartelisation to keep the
prices low for these mines.
While JSPL is yet to respond to the government move, Balco declined to comment on the development.
“Bids for Gare Palma IV/1, IV/2, IV/3 and
Tara coal blocks not accepted,” Coal Secretary Anil Swarup had earlier tweeted.
However, bids for five other blocks which
were accepted are Marki Mangli III mine,
(with B S Ispat as the successful bidder),
Mandla South mine (Jaypee Cement),
Usha Martin Brinda and Sasai mines
(Usha Martin), Dumri mine, (Hindalco Industries) and Meral mine (Trimula Industries).
Through auctioning just 33 blocks, the
government has garnered over Rs 2 lakh
crore, surpassing the Rs 1.86 lakh crore
loss estimated earlier by government auditor CAG for having given away mines
to companies without bidding. The Supreme Court had cancelled the alloted
mines leading to the auctions.

Logistics firm
launches Qatar-India
direct container service
DUBAI, MAR 23: A Qatar-based logistics firm has
launched the first-ever direct container service between
Qatar and India to further facilitate the bilateral trade
that has witnessed a significant growth in the recent
years. The non-stop service will connect Qatar's Doha
port with India’s largest port Nhava Sheva, also known
as Jawaharlal Nehru Port located in Mumbai.
Milaha Maritime and Logistics, a subsidiary of the Qatar- based Milaha Group, said the move will further facilitate the thriving trade activities between the two countries that have witnessed phenomenal growth in the recent years. The new weekly service will enable direct
shipments between Nhava Sheva and Doha without the
need for transshipment in the UAE’s Jebel Ali, thus increasing reliability and reducing transit time and costs.
With an end of the week sailing, Indian exporters will
benefit from a late cut-off providing more time to bring
cargo into the port.
With a reduced transit time, shipments of perishable
products for the Qatari market will better retain freshness and quality. Moreover, the new service may open
up for new perishable commodity segments which, due
to previous transit time, were earlier not an option, the
company said in a statement. “We express our thanks
to the Jawaharlal Nehru Port for their support in reinforcing bilateral relations between Qatar and India that
has gathered significant pace over the years,” Khalifa
Ali Al-Hetmi, President and CEO of Milaha, said yesterday. “The launch of a fast and direct container service
by Milaha will support the increasing trade volume, where
imports into Qatar from India reached a total value of
USD 989 million in 2013-2014,” he said.
“We extend our full cooperation to the company to make
use of the mechanised facility at Nhava Sheva's Shallow Water Berth and benefit the trade between both countries,” Neeraj Bansal, Chairman-in-Charge of Jawaharlal Nehru Port said. Agencies

Spicejet reaches out-of-court settlement with Irish lessor
NEW DELHI, MAR 23: Budget
carrier SpiceJet today said it has
reached an out of court settlement
with an aircraft lessor over default
on aircraft rentals. “SpiceJet Limited has today (March 23, 215) entered into settlement agreement
with its lessor Wilmington Trust SP
Services (Dublin) Ltd with regard
to aircraft operated by company,”
SpiceJet said in a regulatory filing
today. Under the said settlement
agreement, the lessor has agreed
to withdraw the said court proceedings and deregisteration process of aircraft subject to SpiceJet satisfying the terms of settlement, it said.
Meanwhile, the airline today
moved Delhi High Court against
its recent order directing DGCA to
de-register six Boeing 737 aircraft
given on lease to the low cost carrier by some Irish firms, including
Wilmington Trust SP Services
(Dublin) Ltd.
The carrier sought an urgent
hearing of the matter saying once
its planes are de-registered by
Directorate General of Civil Aviation (DGCA), it won't be able
to fly them which in turn would
affect the people who have
booked tickets months in advance. The matter was mentioned before a bench of justices B D Ahmed and Sanjeev Sachdeva which directed that it be
listed for hearing today. In a
blow to the airline, a single
judge bench of the high court
had on March 19 directed the
DGCA to de-register six Boeing
737 aircraft given to the carrier.
An airline cannot operate an
aircraft once it is de-registered
by aviation regulator DGCA. The
Irish firms had moved the court
seeking directions to DGCA to
deregister the aircraft given on
lease to the airline as the aviation regulator had not carried
out the exercise despite several representations by the firms.
The firms had said that they
had sought deregistration of the
aircraft as their lease with SpiceJet had been terminated due to
alleged default in payment of
lease rents by the airline.
The court had directed DGCA
to “forthwith” de-register the aircraft saying once the creditors
fulfilled the conditions prescribed
in Aircraft Rules, the aviation regulator was “mandatorily required
to cancel registration”.
The court had said the petitioner companies, AWAS Ireland Ltd
and Wilmington Trust SP Services (Dublin) Ltd, had fulfilled the
conditions stipulated in the Rules,
and therefore, DGCA had no discretion in the matter. It had also
directed DGCA to decide within
two weeks the companies’ plea for
export of the aircraft out of the
country and disposed of the pleas
of the Irish firms.
Spicejet, which currently has 32
aircraft in its fleet, had argued that
de-registration of the aircraft
would impinge upon public interest. Agencies
