JNPA, DPA & Mundra Port likely to be part of India-Middle East-Europe economic corridor

NEW DELHI: Three Ports on the w e s t c o a s t t h e S t a t e - r u n Jawaharlal Nehru Port Authority (JNPA), Mumbai, and Deendayal Port Authority, Kandla, as well as the Gautam Adani-owned Mundra port — are likely to be part of the IndiaMiddle East-Europe Economic Corridor (IMEEC).

Sources said that the Government has firmed up plans to include the three major ports as part of the transnational rail and shipping corridor spread across two continents, which promises to enhance trade and connectivity across Asia, the Arabian Gulf,andEurope.

According to the Ministry of Ports, Shipping, and Waterways sources, new port development at Vadhavan (off Mumbai), the setting up of a container terminal at Tuna Terka (Kandla), and the expansion of JNPA

will be taken up as part of the master plan to position them as a central hub for international trade, particularly through the IMEEC.

Earlier this month, a MoU for the creation of IMEC was signed between Saudi Arabia, the European Union, India, the UAE, France, Germany, Italy, and the US on the sidelines of the G20 Leaders Summit in New Delhi. These countries are expected to meet in November 2023 to firm up the details.

“Besides, three ports in the UAE, namely Jebel Ali (Dubai), Mina Zayed (Abu Dhabi), and Fujairah, are also expected to be part of the IMEC,” said sources.

Another source said that a decision on the ports in Saudi Arabia has yet to be communicated. The Arab country has more than 10 ports However, the King Abdul

Aziz Port in Dammam and Ras Al Khair could also be considered.

Port master plan Minister for Ports, Shipping, and Waterways Sarbananda Sonowal s a i d , “ We a r e f o r m u l a t i n g a comprehensive port master plan that encompasses proactive measures to r a m p u p c a r g o h a n d l i n g a n d construct world-class infrastructure. Studies will start soon. It will be across Ministries.”

The IMEC will include two separate corridors: the east corridor connecting India to the Arabian Gulf and the northern corridor connecting the Arabian Gulf to Europe.

The rationale is to enhance road, rail, and maritime connectivity in a bid to increase transit of goods and services between India, the UAE, Saudi Arabia, Jordan, Israel, and Europe.

Govt exempts 5% integrated GST on ocean freight imports

NEW DELHI: The Government has exempted payments made for goods imported through ocean freight from 5 per cent integrated GST with effect from October 1.

T h e F i n a n c e M i n i s t r y h a s notified changes to the IGST Act w i t h r e g a r d t o p a y m e n t o f integrated GST on 'ocean freight'

on imported goods with effect from October 1

Currently, importers are required to pay 5 per cent GST under the Reverse Charge Mechanism.

KPMG Indirect Tax Head & Partner Abhishek Jain said the amendments proposed are aligned with the apex court's ruling in the case

of Mohit Minerals and help explicitly mention the government's alignment to the position.

"While this has been issued prospectively, the industry has been seeking and successfully claiming refund of taxes already paid for the past period, where credit has not been availed," Jain added.

UAE, Australia FTAs boost engineering exports, shipments up 9% in April-August period of FY24

NEW DELHI: India’s engineering exports received a much-need boost on account of free trade agreements (FTAs) with UAE and Australia with shipments to both nations surging 9% in April-August period of the financial year 2023-24 even as overall engineering exports slipped during the period under review

Engineering exports to UAE in April-August period of FY24 increased 9% year-on-year to $2.24 billion. In the same period, engineering exports to Australia also jumped 9% year-on-year and stood at $596.14 million as compared to $548.62 in April-August period of FY23.

Overall engineering exports in AprilAugust period of 2023-24 dropped 4.55% to $44.62 billion as against $46.74 billion in April-August period of 2022-23.

Notably, engineering exports to Russia surged 178% year-on-year to $568.41 million in April-August period of FY24.

In the same period last year, engineering exports to Russia were $204.17 million.

Engineering exports to the US, India’s top market, fell 14% year-onyear in the April-August period of the

current financial year.

“Engineering exports to UAE and Australia have been beneficial Our exports to both the two major markets rose 9% in April-August period of FY24. At this point we urge the government to think about more such FTAs not only with our traditional partners but also our non-traditional markets in Latin America and Africa,” EEPC India Chairman Arun Kumar Garodia said in a statement.

This fiscal so far has been tough for the engineering exports as global slowdown has affected some of India’s major partners including the USA and European countries The RussiaUkraine conflict has also been ongoing and China has faced economic slowdown All these factors have s i g n i f i c a n t l y a f f e c t e d I n d i a ’ s engineering export demand.

On cumulative terms, 19 out of 34 engineering panels recorded positive growth during April-August 2023-24 over the same period last fiscal Engineering panels that witnessed growth in exports include copper and products, lead and tin, industrial machinery, pumps, machine tools, aircraft & spacecraft, electrical

machinery and equipment, auto components /parts, medical devices and instruments, other construction machinery, etc Major decline was w i t n e s s e d i n t h e r e s t o f t h e 15 engineering panels.

After eight straight months of yearon-year decline from December 2022 to July 2023, India’s engineering exports was back to growth in August 2023 registering a decent 7.73% growth over August 2022 owing mainly to a lower statistical base.

Engineering exports in August 2023 was recorded at $9.05 billion as against $8.40 billion in August 2022.

‘Electric machinery’, and ‘Copper and copper products’ managed good export growth in August 2023 while exports of ‘Aluminium and aluminium products’ declined noticeably

Excluding the export of iron and steel, engineering exports recorded 8% year-on-year growth in August 2023 On a cumulative basis however, engineering exports excluding Iron and Steel was down by a much lower 1.50% against 4.55% overall. This shows that Iron and Steel still plays a spoilsport in the downfall of engineering exports on a cumulative basis.

JBS Academy celebrates World Maritime Day

Cont’d. from Pg. 3

...on 28th September every year with the theme as MARPOL organised an interactive session on 27th September 2023.

The focus of the Interactive Session was on “MARPOL at 50- Our Commitment Goes on”. International Maritime Organisation conscious of the damage caused to the environment by the maritime activities and shipping and towards its responsibility for the safety and security of shipping and the prevention of marine and atmospheric pollution by ships launched the MARPOL (Marine Pollution) initiative half a decade ago on 2nd November 1973.

As the International Convention for the Prevention of Pollution from Ships celebrates its 50th anniversary, the convention has played a pivotal role in shaping the global shipping industry's approach to environmental protection and has achieved significant results towards reducing oil pollution, curbing harmful substances, addressing the issue of harmful air emissions, ballast water management and garbage management.

A d d r e s s i n g t h e academicians, logistics professionals, students of logistics and allied sectors at the World Maritime Day-

transportation is essential for movement of goods across the boundaries the Inter national Maritime Organisation by its MARPOL initiative was dealing in environmental concerns and finding a balance between marine transportation and protecting the species We must all support the efforts in this direction.

Shri Sanjeev Kumar, H e a d B u s i n e s s Development, Dredging, Adani Ports and SEZ Ltd also addressed the invitees and presented the concept of dredging.

Anil Pratham, IPS, Director General of Police, Police Reforms, Gujarat, connecting the objectives of Suraksha Setu, Coastal Security and marine security mentioned that the seventeen objectives of the ten year old Suraksha Setu concept ultimately revolved round safety and security in general, creating awareness amongst the citizens about the rights and obligations.

Police Department plays varied roles as it deals with human security the prime concern, coastal security as Gujarat has longest coastline with 17 coastal districts and 29,000 fishermen boats which also included security confidence of employees and persons nearby the coastal areas. However the role of the Police is not in public domain. Therefore, Suraksha Setu does need some space. It is necessary that the other humane face of the Department also comes in public domain. In fact a situation must arise when citizens voluntarily come forward and inform the nearest police station of unlawful activities happening in their neighborhood. Suraksha Setu is empowering citizens throughout the State be it urban or remote area.

Guest of Honour Shri Mukesh Parikh, Professor of Practice, Adani University addressing the distinguished guests mentioned that actually everything revolved around sustainability Elaborating on this Prof. Parikh said that this century has witnessed two crises viz. the Lehman crises in 2008-09 and the Pandemic of 2019-20. We all came out of these difficult situation and sustained ourselves, similarly while marine

Shah, Chief Mentor and Director, JBS Academy Private Limited observed that movement of cargo by sea and shipping is going to stay whether it is the China route or the new Middle East Europe route, the efforts should be to do things sustainability securely and safely Our curriculum had chapters on Safety and Security and we would be advising our faculty to also include Suraksha Setu objectives in their teachings.
