13. What is Angel Tax? VQ;ry; thp vd;why; vd;d? Angel Tax is a 30% tax that is levied on the funding received by startups from an external investor. However, this 30% tax is levied when startups receive angel funding at a valuation higher than its ‘fair market value’. It is counted as income to the company and is taxed. The tax, under section 56(2)(viib), was introduced by in 2012 to fight money laundering. The stated rationale was that bribes and commissions could be disguised as angel investments to escape taxes. But given the possibility of this section being used to harass genuine startups, it was rarely invoked.

15. What is participatory Notes (P-Notes)?

Participatory Notes vd;why; vd;d?

A Participatory Note (PN or P-Note) in the Indian context, in essence, is a derivative instrument issued in foreign jurisdictions, by a SEBI registered EH, against Indian securities—the Indian security instrument may be equity, debt, derivatives or may even be an index. PNs are also known as Overseas Derivative Instruments, Equity Linked Notes, Capped Return Notes, and Participating Return Notes, etc.

The investor in PN does not own the underlying Indian security, which is held by the FII who issues the PN. Thus, the investors in PNs derive the economic benefits of investing in the security without actually holding it. They benefit from fluctuations in the price of the underlying security since the value of the PN is linked with the value of the underlying Indian security. The PN holder also does not enjoy any voting rights in relation to security/shares referenced by the PN.

18. What do you mean by Most Favoured Nation? kpf Kf;fpa ehL me;j];J (MFN) vd;why; vd;d? In international economic relations and international politics, "most favoured nation" (MFN) is a status or level of treatment accorded by one state to another in international trade. The term means the country which is the recipient of this treatment must nominally receive equal trade advantages as the "most favoured nation" by the country granting such treatment. (Trade advantages include low tariffs or high import quotas.) In effect, a country that has been accorded MFN status may not be treated less advantageously than any other country with MFN status by the promising country. There is a debate in legal circles whether MFN clauses in bilateral investment treaties include only substantive rules or also procedural protections.

Recently India revoked MFN status to Pakistan.

22. What are the outcomes of New Delhi Declaration on Asian Rhinos – 2019? GJby;yp Mrpa fhz;lhkpUfk; gpufldk; - 2019,d; Kf;fpa ntspg;ghLfs; ahit?

India and four rhino range nations have signed a declaration ‘The New Delhi Declaration on Asian Rhinos 2019’ for the conservation and protection of the species at the recently held Second Asian Rhino Range Countries meeting.

2nd Asian Rhino Range Countries meeting was held at New Delhi and organised by the Ministry of Environment, Forest and Climate Change of Government of India in collaboration with the IUCN Asian Rhino Specialist Group, WWF- India and Aaranyak.

The twelve point strategic actions outlined the following actions:

i. To collaborate to strengthen protection regimes, strategic information gathering, and real time sharing of actionable information on rhino crime and its horn trade to secure the rhino population within and between range countries.

ii. To initiate research on various habitat parameters including invasive species threatening the suitable habitats of Asian rhinos and take appropriate steps to optimally manage the habitats.

iii. To explore possibilities of expanding rhino ranges within country or between rhino range countries for optimal population management.

iv. To strengthen transboundary collaboration among India, Nepal, and Bhutan for the greater one-horned rhino conservation and protection.

v. To identify connectivity and corridors across international boundaries and keep them functional, safe and secure for free movement of Asian rhinos and other wildlife.

vi. To increase the engagement of the local communities as stewards to secure the future of rhinos in range countries.

vii. To initiate proactive monitoring on potential adverse impacts of climate change on rhino health and their habitats in range countries.

viii. To undertake studies on Rhino health issues & potential diseases and take necessary steps for management intervention.

ix. To regularly organize exposure visits for managers and frontline staffs of the rhino range countries and to document the best practices for wider dissemination.

x. To collaborate and strengthen wildlife forensics for the purpose of investigation.

xi. To accelerate natural and conservation breeding of critically endangered Sumatran rhino including best use of all available individuals and technologies.

xii. To call to the attention of all countries that possible opening of international trade of rhino horn and other derivatives will have a severe detrimental impact on rhino populations in Asian rhino range countries.

The Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species of Wild Fauna and Flora (CITES)

entered into force in 1975,

ASIATIC LIONS ARE Listed in Schedule I of Wildlife (Protection) Act 1972, in Appendix I of

Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species (CITES).

Grizzled Giant Squirrel Listed under Schedule II of CITES (Convention on International Trade in

Endangered Species of Wild Fauna and Flora).

Five of the greatest success of WWF (March 2016-2017):

1. Wild tiger numbers increase for the first time in conservation history

2. Pandas are no longer classified as ‘endangered’

3. All trade in the world’s most trafficked mammal, the pangolin, is now illegal

4. Saving World Heritage sites – home to iconic species including elephants, rhinos dolphins

and marine turtles

5. China, home to the world’s largest legal ivory trade market announces closure by end of

2017

ACHIEVEMENTS OF IUCN

Its single most important contribution to natural sciences is the development of the Red List—the

world’s most comprehensive inventory of the global conservation status of biological species.

ACHIEVEMENTS OF CBD

Protected area coverage has doubled over the past 20 years and terrestrial protected areas now cover over 12% of the Earth’s land surface.

Water quality in rivers in Europe, North America, and Latin America and the Caribbean has improved since the 1980s.

The Government of India has established about 18 different Biosphere Reserves in the country.

Of these, 11 are part of the World Network of BiosphereReserves, set up under the auspices of

the UNESCO Man and Biosphere (MAB) Programme.

ACHIVEMENTS OF wildlife protection act 1972

Under the Indian Wildlife (protection) Act 1972, certain species are protected, certain activities (such

as hunting at specified times of the year or in specified locations) are forbidden, and a much larger

area of land is protected under national parks.

4.89% of India’s land area was dedicated to wildlife conservation zones, while 21.34% was under

forest cover (and therefore is suitable for the future conservation of endangered species).

One huge area of success for conservation efforts in India is their implementation of tiger reserves.

In the past six years, the tiger population has increased to around 2500 tigers.
