The President welcomed the members to the meeting

1

Mr. Mayank Jalan, President, ICC welcomed the Executive Committee Members to the ICC Executive Committee Meeting, held on 14th August, 2020. President, ICC then updated the committee members that over the last 4 months there have been more than 100 significant webinars with prominent Ministers and Secretaries of the Government of India and various State Governments as well as key industry personnel that has led to close coordination between the chamber, Government and industry. He mentioned that the most significant of them all have been the 95th Annual Plenary Session of ICC in June 2020, addressed by PM Shri Narendra Modi which was also broadcasted on television allowing millions of people to watch. Shri Narendra Modi congratulated the chamber for its 95 years of service and for its contribution to India’s growth trajectory. Mr. Jalan also highlighted the webinars with the Finance Minister, MSME Minister and Commerce & Industry Minister during the last 4 months and informed of the panel about the upcoming webinar with the Dr. Rajiv Kumar, Vice Chairman, Niti Ayog on 20th August, 2020. He stated that an urgency has been felt for the Government to bring about changes. Hence, he urged the members to come up with suggestions for their respective sectors that could be submitted to the Government for taking action on them. President informed the panel that ICC has achieved a landmark with more than 500 new member enrolment over the past year with 260 new members in lockdown only and several new membership requests have come in that are being processed. Speaking on the current healthcare scenario with respect to COVID 19, Ms Rupali Basu stated that the Private and the Government sectors are working hand in hand to fight the pandemic situation. She informed that standardised care has been the focus. The current death rate is 2.8% and the healthcare sector in the country is trying to bring it down to 1.5% and only a very small fraction of the affected are going for critical care, she added. Speaking on the same lines, Mr. Rupak Barua mentioned that the recovery rate has been increasing and over the time, death rate will decrease. He mentioned that coming out with a vaccine in 6-8 months is difficult and that a potent coronavirus vaccine that will be able to prevent all the mutated variants may take a much longer time to come out in the market.

On the steel sector, Mr. Vishambhar Saran said that bad shape of the real estate sector and poor demand in the automobile sector has weighed on the demand of steel. As a result, low domestic prices have been wiping away healthy profits. To recover loss, companies are now keener on exporting, Mr. Saran informed. Mr. Rudra Chatterjee spoke on the Home furnishing sector that has drastically changed over the past few months. He said that while online presence has been faring well with customers inclined toward buying office or outdoor furniture, many offline home furnishing businesses have gone bankrupt. With respect to the tea sector, Mr. C. K. Dhanuka informed that lockdown and lack of labour has led to low plucking thereby resulting in huge crop losses. As a result, tea prices have gone up and tea packeteers have sought duty free imports which he felt can be detrimental for the industry going ahead. Mr. Dhanuka strongly sought Government support for the tea industry. Mr. JP Chowdhary stated that the macrolevel financial position is very shaky and that the more effective stimulus is needed. He felt that new methods must be introduced in the form of quantitative easing. However, the silver lining is that demand is slowly recovering, although the long-term sustainability of the same was questioned by him. Mr. Chittaranjan Dhar informed that staples have witnessed growth due to lockdown as people are stuck mostly in their homes. Particularly easy to consume items have gone up substantially as dining out has stopped. However, products that have suffered sales in the lockdown include soaps, perfumes, clothes, skin care products, makeup etc. No new capacity building is taking place; hence the need of the hour is to conserve cash, said Mr. Dhar. The Committee meeting was also attended by Economist Dr. A. Virmani, who spoke on the economics of the pandemic. He said that “this is a crisis and it should not be expected that immediately after we come out of this crisis, the economy will boom”. He mentioned that there has been huge logistics and hence supply chain disruption during the lockdown and CPI has increased 6% in May-June. Disrupted supply chain has resulted in pockets of excess demand and excess supply. He felt that during lockdown, traditional fiscal policy is not worthy; instead starvation and bankruptcy are the main issues that need attention. Although the credit guarantee scheme was praised by him, he felt that sectors that were already suffering in the pre COVID period, required more specific changes. Dr. Virmani said that we are currently at a 72-75% of recovery to normal levels. However, it is estimated that pre COVID normalcy levels can only be reached by Q4, 2021 at the earliest. Few critical things pointed out by Dr. Virmani as the need of the hour include- fiscal policy normalization, economic reforms, further GST simplification, direct tax code and labour reforms. Mr. Vikash Agarwal, Senior Vice President, ICC offered the formal Vote of Thanks to all the members present for attending the Committee meeting and the Executive Committee meet concluded successfully.

"Fascinating Travelogue of East Asia Depicts Buddhism Knits the Whole World

as One Family"

The ancient Indian civilization has flourished from the cradles of river valleys.

Post the Vedic period, Indian culture saw Buddhism emanating from its soil. The

web session by the Indian Chamber of Commerce on the event of the book

launch of "On the trail of Buddha" A journey to the east by Mr. Deepankar Aron,

IRS, has stimulated discussions about Buddhism, diachronic linguistics. The

book also includes how our roots are closely twined with South East and East

Asian nations. The book is a travelogue that has vivid photographs and

enchanting narrations about different statues and frescoes in grottoes beautifully

preserved in the traditions, art, and architecture of China, as also in Mongolia,

Korea, and Japan. The book traces the Silk route's historical linkages with India

and its neighbors and captures the essence of the Shaolin Temple, which is

associated with Bodhi Dharma. It also narrates history behind the "Four Holy

Buddhist Mountains" in China, which consists of at least one of the four principal

Bodhisattvas of Mahayana Buddhism thought to be residing at each one. The

book takes us through a journey from monasteries and caves in China to the

museums of Taiwan and the sculptures of Buddha in Korea, Mongolia, and

Japan. There are some interesting facts that the book reveals like Chengiz Khan

was a secular ruler, and he was the harbinger of Innovation, including

Technological Innovation. The book also connects the Nikko-Tosho-gu Temple of

Japan with Gandhiji. It is a fact that Gandhiji‟s three monkeys symbolizing his

principle of speaking hearing and seeing nothing but the truth was a gift from a

Japanese monk named Nishidatsu Fuji. The temple at Ni kk o has the sculptures

of three monkeys in a Buddhist temple. Lastly, the book is a reliever to the

stressful mind with its graphic illustrations and precious testimony of how Ancient

Indian culture has traveled and settled in East Asia.

Total 72 People attended the Webinar.

The Agriculture sector has achieved significant momentum in the past decade.

Mobilizing farmers into their collectives, as Farmer Producer Organisations, has

emerged as the most preferred institutional mechanism for farmer prosperity by

policy makers and development agencies. From modest beginnings, the FPO

numbers have acquired impressive strength in many States. These initiatives

have served as an example for FPO transition to become sustainable and

achieve scale in the long-run.

E-Conference on Promoting New FPOs and Raising Farmers Income in Bihar Jharkhand

24th August 2020, Kolkata

President‟s Report Page 15 of 70

Despite this, many FPOs face several challenges ranging from management of

business, irregular supply and lack of timely financial assistance. The ability to

influence the agri-value chain in a significant manner remains far-fetched for the

majority of FPOs. Therefore, a holistic approach to address the majority of

challenges faced by FPOs is the need of the hour. With continuous awareness

drives and initiatives, synergies between various efforts on supporting FPOs can

be integrated. This can help bridge the knowledge gap among state bodies, think

tanks, promoting organizations and FPOs.

The event was addressed by Dr. N Saravana, Secretary, Department of

Agriculture, Government of Bihar, Mr. Pradeep Kumar Hazari, Special Secretary,

Department of Agriculture, Government of Jharkhand, Dr. Ashok Dalwai, IAS,

CEO, NRAA, Chairman Committee on Doubling of Farmer‟s Income, Department

of Agriculture, Cooperation and Farmers Welfare, Government of India and

prominent speakers from Jugal Bandi FPO, Ice Make Refrigerations, ST

Genetics, De-Haat who also sponsored the event.

The event was attend by over 250+ FPOs and Progressive Farmers and Rural

Agri Enterprises promoting FPOs, Government officials, Financial Institutions,

and Industry Experts.

The purpose of this webinar was to collectivize farmers, especially small farmer

producers of Bihar & Jharkhand to foster technology penetration, improve

productivity, enable improved access to inputs and services, financial credit and

increase farmer incomes, thereby strengthening their sustainable agriculture

based livelihoods. As such the seminar will emphasized on the following themes:

Formation & mobilization of new FPOs in Bihar & Jharkhand.

Role of Implementing Agencies/ Institutions in FPO Formation- SFAC, NCDC,

grown by 100% from 2019 to 2020, he said. "Artificial Intelligence and Machine

Learning are important as systems can start to learn, based on transaction and

modify the rules that are required to take decisions." And Credit Information

Bureaus are helping in Financial Inclusion by collecting and analysing

transactional data and helping in the growth of Micro Credit, Retail Credit ,

Agro Credit and Credit to MSMEs as a whole , was the conclusion of

Bankers and Credit Experts. Mr V P Nandakumar, Managing Director &

CEO, Manappuram Finance Ltd., said data analytics of transactions, by

tracking and monitoring transactions, has helped lending easier and also helped

in maintaining asset quality. He also stressed that data analytics has helped

informal sector getting from formal sources. He emphasised, "Data has big value,

data analytics (model) play big role and execution of model by targeting right

audience is key." The company has successfully diversified into Micro Credit,

Vehicle Finance and Housing Finance and is among the top 10 NBFCs of

India. Mr Akhil Handa, Head Fintech, Partnerships & Mobile Banking and

Digital Lending Department, Bank of Baroda also stressed that lynchpin of

entire digital lending journey will be analytics. In Digital Lending 1.0 (2015-20),

PSB 59, TReDS, all led to 20% of credit disbursement being technology

driven. In Digital Lending 2.0 (2020-25) he believed, ecosystems will get

connected to the financial systems. Digital lending, he further added will go

beyond tier I & II cities. Infrastructure enablers, such as digital land registry,

account aggregators, and Open Credit Enablement Network (OCEN) will come

into place. He believed that by 2025 55-75% of loan that get booked will be

digital in nature. Only 18 million out of 75 million MSMEs are digitised now, while

majority would get digitised in the next 5 years and Covid would be a major

change driver.CMA Balwinder Singh, President, Institute of Cost

Accountants of India in his opening remarks stated that digital lending is here to

stay, but to ensure its success what is needed are stronger guard rails from both

a legal and compliance perspective. Mr S Rengarajan, Member, ICC National

Expert Committee on BFSI in his welcome address emphasised the innovative

financing mechanisms from new age digital lenders will be critical for the growth

The discussion was primarily focused on the initiatives being planned by the

Indian Railways in the New Normal to boost the logistics sector going ahead. On

the cargo freight front, despite the adversities and consequent low freights in

President‟s Report Page 28 of 70

April, May and June, July has shown a 94% of pre COVID freight achievement

while the August 2020 numbers have already exceeded last year August‟s freight

of 91.06 million tones. To clarify the present preparedness of the Indian Railways

Mr Manoj Kumar, Chief Freight Traffic Manager – SER, Indian Railways said

“Indian Railways is ready to run passenger train anytime within 72 hours of

instruction by the PM”,

On the shipping front, container handling is expected to show growth from

October 2020 and conscious effort is being taken by the port authorities to

improve necessary infrastructure in eastern belt to increase capacity for handling

increased cargo. The Kolkata Port has undertaken measures such as movement

of North East Cargo through Chittagong to supply materials to NER through

Bangladesh, reducing handling time, PPP in modernization of berths in Haldia,

transloader in Sagar for big ships etc. The liquid cargo handling terminal project

at Shalukhali that has already received environmental clearance is expected to

get financial clearance in 3-4 months that will boost the eastern ports‟ capacity to

handle cargos. that Dharma Port is emerging as centric to inland water transport.

Dignitaries elaborating the customer perspective mentioned that although,

COVID has been a catalyst in the development of supply chain with respect to

behavioral change as well a process change marketing and right connect

between rail and FMCG is needed. Freight corridors, concessions from railways

will help achieve bigger freight goals for the Railways along with bigger targets

for the mass transporters . Resilience has shown that logistics has gone back to

75% of COVID levels. However, investment in infrastructure is needed in the

North East, establishing pre-trade zones, ecommerce fulfillment centers and

distribution network. Right steps need to be undertaken by railways to

accommodate the transport of fragile goods on time as well as focus on volume

than tonnage.

The event is about :

Schools – both Primary and Secondary are the institutions that play the crucial

role of bringing infants to the cusp of adulthood. It is in schools that we develop

and form our core skills, knowledge and principles. It is thus essential that we

have an ongoing discussion amongst all stakeholders on what we can do to

ensure that the we can effectively prepare students to be both intellectually

curious, and socially responsible adults.

Over the decades, there has been considerable evolution and change in the

parameters that govern our educational institutions and systems: run. Three

areas of particular interest are:

1. Curriculum: Which subjects are taught, what is the appropriate breadth and

depth of knowledge imparted. How does this evolve as the frontiers of human

knowledge are broadened.

2. Learning & Teaching Methodology: How is the material transmitted to the

students; How do we measure outcomes and calibrate the delivery technique

accordingly; How do we ensure that technology does not confer undue and

overwhelming advantage to one section of society.

President‟s Report Page 31 of 70

3. Value System and Discipline: Schools also have a vital role in preparing

children to be responsible members of society. Classrooms are where values

and many social norms are re-enforced. How do we decide the best way to

conduct classrooms and impart the corresponding socialization skills.

In a diverse country like India, we need to find solutions that can address a

national objective while addressing the regional perspectives. In this backdrop,

President‟s Report Page 32 of 70

The New Education Policy (NEP) 2020, which was approved by the Union

Cabinet of India on 29 July 2020, is built on India's new education system's

vision. According to Mr. Anil Swarup, Former Union Secretary of School

Education & Literacy, the Policy does a good job where it allows open

opportunities for children to hone their talents by fixing the lacunae in the

education system. He also mentioned that the inclusion of vocational training, the

introduction of 4 years integrated B.Ed course, and the option of selecting

subjects without thinking about the hierarchy of science, commerce, and arts

have undoubtedly made the policy more significant.

Mrs. Devi Kar, Director, Modern High School for Girls, has expressed that India

has undone through various stages of emergence. From dependent, it emerged

as an independent nation, and from underdeveloped, it has emerged to a

developing country; currently, it focuses on being one of the world Superpowers.

Ms. Kaveri Dutt, Province Co-ordinator, Loreto Education Board, explained the

education sector is trying to broaden students' possibilities ahead in their careers

and the New Education Policy is far sighted in this regard.

Ms. Sharmila Bose, Principal, Sushila Birla Girls' School, Kolkata, stated that

the NEP focuses on how a child should learn to "learn." She also pointed out that

if the contents of the books are contracted, then classroom focus shifts to

students' character-building and learning the crafts of the 21st century.

Ms. Pratima Nayar, Principal (Junior Section), Calcutta International School,

explained that school is a micro-organism of society, so emphasis should be

given on how schools help in making a child socialized outside the cocoon of the

family. Lastly, the web session concluded on the concept that the whole

pedagogy of teacher-centric education has to be changed to student-centric

education to adjust to the demands of the 21st century world.

In the Government e-Marketplace (GeM), 50% of the transactions happening

involve MSMEs, claimed Shri Nirmal Kumar, Deputy CEO-GeM and State

Nodal Officer for Bihar while speaking at a webinar on "Vocal for Local"

organised by the Indian Chamber of Commerce (ICC).

happened through GeM. He said, "GeM platform was created so that even the

small size enterprises have the opportunity to transact with the Government

departments without any hassles."

President‟s Report Page 35 of 70

GeM, Shri Kumar maintained, has minimised obstacles to transact with the

Government however some barriers still exists. He appealed to the MSME

members of ICC to provide feedback so that these difficulties could be sorted

out.

Declaration of product's country of origin in GeM platform has also helped the

Government in analysing sectors where 'Made in India' products are less

available or not available so that it can prepare strategies accordingly.

Also speaking at the webinar, Shri V M Jha, IEDS, Director, MSME-DI, Patna,

said that Covid-19 induced lockdown has impacted many sectors severely but it

has also opened opportunities in many sectors. Now things, such as sanitizers,

ventilators and PPE kits are manufactured locally, he said. However, he

maintained it is important to consider that locally manufactured products must

have quality of international standards so as to compete globally.

He also emphasised that products with international quality standards that are

historically produced in a locality should apply for GI tag so as to brand them

effectively.

Shri R K Thakur, Joint Director, Department of Industries, Government of

Bihar, said that in order to promote local MSMEs, the State Government in its

procurement, have exempted them from paying earnest money and also they

need to deposit 20% of the security money only. Also, to set up industries in

Bihar, he stated, the Government is giving incentives such as interest

subvention, 100% exemption on land registration among others.

He also emphasised that local products in order to be competitive nationally need

not only to focus on quality but also packaging.

In his welcome remarks, Shri Avijit Ghosh, ICC Chairman, Bihar &

Jharkhand, said that 'Vocal for Local' is an ambitious initiative by the

Government so as reduce India's dependence on import and make the country

self reliant.

of financing facility under the Agriculture Infrastructure Fund of Rs. 1 Lakh

infrastructure and these assets will enable farmers to get greater value for

their produce as they will be able to store and sell at higher prices, reduce

wastage, and increase processing and value addition.

Devising Commercial Contracts – Meeting unprecedented Challenges

5th September 2020; 4.30 to 6pm

India's economic activity has had a major hit over the last few months due to the

unprecedented Covid-19 pandemic situation. It has become extremely difficult on

of any liability between the parties.

In order to reach out to the affected industry members at this difficult time and to

Mr Arun Laddha, Head, ICC Sub Committee on Capital Markets mentioned that periodic withdrawals of funds should is discouraged so that the benefits are not lowered. Mr Manoj Sinha also discussed that long term investments could mitigate risks. He explained the importance of choosing an option in sync with risk-reward expectations. In today’s era, there is around 10% inflation in educational expenses. It is best to set plans keeping the inflation rate in mind. Equity, as an asset class, has a long term track record of returning real returns above inflation. Mr R. Srinivasan, Head -Equity Investment, SBI Mutual Fund opined that SBI Magnum Children’s Benefit Fund, is a strategic investment plan in front of parents. This fund invests at least 65 per cent in domestic stocks, and the remaining portion will get allocated to international equities (maximum up to 35 per cent) and gold exchange-traded funds (up to 20 per cent). Mr Srinivasan said that says that the equity portion of the fund will continue to execute like a multi-cap scheme. The most significant advantage of the plan is since the scheme’s debt component would be restricted to just 35 per cent, which would be managed conservatively, it would yield higher returns for the investor. Though there are two variants of the scheme– equity and debt-oriented it also aims to benefit from investing across asset classes; a strategy that has proved beneficial in recent times.

President‟s Report Page 62 of 70

Understanding Export Controls regulation will help Indian MSME and Start-ups

and also mentioned Export Controls regime can improve the ease of doing

business in terms of trading across borders and boost India‟s economic

integration with the world economy. India is playing an important role in the

global programme of non-proliferation. Export control system is required

because dual-use technologies and sensitive items do not reach the wrong

hands, particularly the non-state actors.

Currently SCOMET (Special Chemicals, Organisms, Materials, Equipment

and Technologies) list contains dual-use goods and technologies within 8

categories, in line with India‟s non-proliferation commitments.

India has been harmonising the country‟s export control list in line with the

changes in their guidelines.

Government-industry partnership is essential for implementing a strong and

robust export control regime.

India had joined three key international export regimes, namely the

Wassenaar Arrangement, the Australia Group and the Hague Code of

Conduct. New and emerging technologies, with their potential for dual-use,

pose a huge challenge to export control regime of the country. India‟s export

control system is the reflection of efficacy in the interest of national security

and meeting international obligations.

As a responsible member of the international community, India is committed to

non-proliferation of sensitive and dual-use materials and technology including

ammunitions, where the country has an impeccable record.

India has never been a source for proliferation. For manufacturing certain

items which are on a special list, called SCOMET, companies engaged in their

manufacture are required to obtain a license from certain government

agencies to help ascertain and verify the end user.
