Foreign Direct Investment: Trusts as Investment Vehicles


OFFHAND (sharing own thoughts, simply to provoke more on any possible useful lines)

On a first reading, one is tempted to compliment the writer , as a law student in his advanced stage of studies, for the pains taken in embarking on an academic study in a singular way of his own and producing a write-up for the benefit of the lawyers community. The burden of the song is not quite clearly understood. Nonetheless,  the main thrust , as understood (open to correction with an appropriate reasoning , if were considered materially wrong), is seen to be that  for FDI, in order to be assured of protection, 'units', as opposed to 'equity' may prove , in comparison, a better (if not a safer) bet , as a 'trust vehicle'. In the ultimate analysis, however, what ought not to be forgotten is, whatever the law or regulations, be it extant or proposed, the expected fulfillment of trust, even partially, is wholly going to depend upon meeting the criteria, and in turn the attitude and behavior of each and everyone of the homo sapiens, independent of the size of the section of the people,  involving self and thereby becoming a 'vested interest' - in its ideal or other sense.

While on the academic discussion, those really interested may wish and care to look up, among others, a clarification noted to have been lately issued by a 'competent authority' on a connected point (for ready reference- HERE Trust/trustee as a partner in Limited Liability Partnerships (LLPS) - Clarification on TaxGuru (which , as commented, appears to be incomplete and lacking in clarity).
Back to the writer, besides the rest, for a further study, with the hope of more light being thrown on his chosen topic; and if possible, with suggestions for any practical solutions.

 SEBI: Infrastructure Investments and Portfolio Investments






Foreign Portfolio Investors -
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

 On quickly going through, one’s impression is, that the budget proposals are no more than mere ‘suggestions’ (to borrow a word from Palkivala), for long term- in any case not to be mistaken for a policy decision, or ready-made to be gone ahead with straightaway and given a final shape for formulating, structuring and enactment, without a truly mindful and intensive homework.

Again, what the SEBI has come out with mostly pertain to procedural facets, and at best, a programme; not fit enough to be to dubbed as “Regulations” amenable to be gone ahead with. As such, to say that “Now that the tax treatment has been addressed in the Budget 2014” partakes the nature of ‘foreground’: and more or less akin to same wisdom as in putting the cart before the horse.(which means, - doing things the wrong way round or with the wrong emphasis. The idiom is about confusing cause and effect.)




In this context, attention may be invited usefully to the recent column in Business Standard

Own Quick reaction:
The speech of this MP marks a striking departure / change in the thus far been observed in the disposition of the Opposition. One should think that is a change for the better, indicating the probability of the Opposition playing a positive passionate role in bringing about a constructive debate on such matters of intricacies entailing public interest, and thereby ushering in a new chapter in the way of its functioning.

PM launches MyGov portal to enable Govt-citizen discussions


What the PM has reiterated implicitly underlines, very rightly so, the laudable concept ideally inscribed in the preamble to the  Constitution itself- i.e. the  concept of "for the people, of the people" and most importantly, 'by the people"; and the expectation of active, nay proactive, participation by one and all belonging to the nation.




Looking back through the gone-by decades, and reflecting upon the human history, all such ideologies, ideals, requiring to be fitted into any  'public-centric' policy framework, etc.,  though conceived of in some form or other, have miserably been failed to be taken forward. In short, the common behavioral pattern of humans in action- right from ordinary mortals to the high empowered authorities and other functionaries  entrusted with the respective duties and responsibilities, have tragically betrayed the objective behind, to even make a mental note of the one and only principle to be kept in sharp focus; that is, in the wisdom soaked words of a great  renowned visionary of  our times, Palkhivala, integrity personified,  strongly advocated for - Optimism of the WILL as against Optimism ( or Pessimism !) of that dubious thing called INTELLIGENCE (of individuals or a body of them). The success or otherwise of the wishfully listed  slew of steps thought of , seemingly in the only right direction warranted by our times, is going to entirely depend equally on both THE PEOPLE and the new set of people enthroned, unreservedly imbibing that laudable principle, to be translated into action with all the speed on command.

Driven perforce down the memory lane, this marked development

reminds one of what John F Kennedy (US) said, albeit with a 

different stroke.
