The South African Post Office has been in business rescue – a form of bankruptcy protection – since July 2023. Business rescue practitioners Anoosh Rooplal and Juanito Damons have made it clear to parliament that the entity will not survive liquidation unless a R3.8-billion bailout is received soon. With some 5 500 jobs on the line, the big question is: is the Post Office worth saving? Rooplal spoke to TechCentral's Nathi Ndlovu and was asked that question. In this episode of the TechCentral Show, Rooplal talks about: • The case for the bailout: The business rescue practitioners have already received R2.4-billion from government, while bailouts for the Post Office over the past decade amount to nearly R10-billion. Rooplal attempts to answer why this latest funding request is worth it. • The current state of the Post Office: Rooplal outlines what the R2.4-billion tranche was used for and what the R3.8-billion request would do, if provided. He also details what the future state of the entity might look like and how, without much in terms of income, salaries are currently being paid. • The need for a state-owned postal service: Even if national treasury were to agree to save the Post Office, does it have a place in a modern digital economy? • External funding and asset sales: If the business case for the Post Office's revival is so strong, why have the businesses rescue practitioners not sold or rationalised assets or gone to the open market for funding? • Social grants and Post Bank: Rooplal explains what would happen to the many grant recipients processed via the Post Office should it not survive business rescue. • Private sector partnerships: The department of communications & digital technologies in November issued a request for information seeking private sector partnership proposals. Rooplal explains the “chicken and egg” problem at the core those discussions. • No more options: Chapter 6 of the Companies Act compels business rescue practitioners to file for liquidation if they see “no reasonable prospect” of rescue. Rooplal explains why he and his associate, Damons, are close to pulling the trigger. Don't miss the discussion! TechCentral

UK Dentists: Collect your verifiable CPD for this episode here >>> https://courses.dentistswhoinvest.com/smart-money-members-club———————————————————————Want control without owning every share? We explore how alphabet shares let dental founders keep a firm hand on strategy and clinical standards while still raising capital, rewarding key clinicians, and giving investors predictable returns. With corporate lawyer Ray Goodman, we translate complex UK company law into practical steps that fit the way dental groups actually grow.We start by demystifying A, B and C share classes and the rights that sit behind them: voting power, dividend priority, capital distribution on exit, and protections like drag-along and tag-along. From there, we show how the Companies Act 2006, model Articles of Association, and a clear shareholders' agreement work together. If you've wondered when to use enhanced-vote founder shares, when preference shares with a coupon make sense, or how growth shares align clinician performance with equity, this is your playbook.Real examples bring the structures to life. Founders retain control while external investors get fixed returns. Associates earn upside via conversion triggers tied to EBITDA or revenue. Passive backers hold non-voting preference shares that look and feel like stable income. We also cover essentials many owners miss: how to amend Articles, obtain class consents, set valuation rules that avoid minority discount fights, and meet Dentists Act requirements on dentally qualified directors. Plus, we flag common drafting pitfalls and why aligning Articles and the shareholders' agreement prevents nasty surprises at exit.———————————————————————Disclaimer: All content on this channel is for education purposes only and does not constitute an investment recommendation or individual financial advice.

Major changes to the Companies Act come into force on New Year's Day; A 21 year old is behind bars after a police chase in West Bay; and a 62 year is sentenced in Grand Court for rape and indecent assault.

Senior directors and officers of a company currently must publish their usual residential address with the Companies Registration Office. But the government is worried that may open these senior executives to abuse or even fraud. That's why it is consulting widely to see if the Companies Act needs to be changed to provide the public with a ‘contact address' in Ireland - while keeping the residential details on file with the CRO.All to discuss with Niamh Smyth is the Minister of State at the Department of Enterprise with special responsibility for Trade Promotion, Artificial Intelligence and Digital Transformation.

Illegal dividends sound complicated, but we break them down in simple terms. In this episode, we share what counts as an illegal dividend, why they happen, and the steps you can take to avoid expensive problems. If you're a company director or shareholder, this is essential listening.What You'll Learn in This Episode What an illegal dividend is and why it matters. The tax consequences for the company and directors. How HMRC identifies illegal dividends. Practical steps to stay compliant and stress-free.Illegal Dividends ExplainedUnder the Companies Act 2006, dividends can only be paid from accumulated, realised profits. If your company doesn't have enough retained profits, paying a dividend is unlawful—even if your bank account looks healthy. It's a common mistake, especially when cash and profit are confused.Why Illegal Dividends Cause ProblemsThis isn't just a technical breach—it can trigger serious tax consequences, increase insolvency risk, and create personal liability for directors. Think of it like driving without insurance. You may not get caught immediately, but if things go wrong, the impact can be huge.Tax Consequences for the CompanyIf an illegal dividend is treated as a director's loan and not repaid within nine months of the year-end, HMRC charges an additional tax of 33.75% on the amount. This applies even if the company is making a loss. While the charge is refundable if repaid later, the wait is long and the cost can hurt cash flow.Tax Consequences for DirectorsDirectors can face extra tax on loans over £10,000, including a benefit-in-kind charge and Class 1A NIC. If the loan is written off, it's treated as additional income and taxed accordingly. In liquidation, illegal dividends can make directors personally liable for repayment, creating serious financial risk.How HMRC Identifies Illegal DividendsHMRC uses digital filing and iXBRL-tagged accounts to check for inconsistencies between reserves and declared dividends. If your accounts show negative reserves but dividends paid out, expect questions. This is an easy red flag for HMRC systems.Steps to Stay Compliant Check retained profits before declaring dividends. Don't confuse cash with profitability. Keep management accounts up to date using software like Xero. Consult your accountant if unsure. Repay unlawful dividends quickly if you make a mistake.Key TakeawaysIllegal dividends aren't worth the risk. Review your dividend policy, maintain accurate records, and seek advice when in doubt. Avoid unnecessary tax charges and personal liability by staying compliant and proactive.Links Mentioned in This Episode

Welcome to Top of the Morning by Mint, your weekday newscast that brings you five major stories from the world of business. It's Monday, February 10, 2025. This is Nelson John, let's get started. Air traffic is booming in India. Manufacturers are actively seeking deals at the Aero India exhibition, highlighting the country's potential. The International Air Transport Association (IATA) is set to hold its annual general meeting in June in New Delhi, a testament to India's growing market influence. According to Airbus India's Remi Maillard, “ India is now the third-largest air market globally, after the U.S. and China”. Boeing's Salil Gupte echoed this sentiment, calling India the most dynamic and exciting market. The civil aviation ministry claims a meteoric rise in the sector, with traffic growth projected over seven percent annually until 2043. Although rail travel remains popular, it's often slow and chaotic. Boeing estimates that converting just two percent of daily train users to air travel could double the air market, given the current low per capita air travel of 0.12 compared to 0.46 in China.Going by these statistics, the Indian market will need at least 2,835 new aircraft in the next 20 years, and all major players like Indigo, Airbus and Air India are gunning for the Next big leap in the airline sector.  Ola Electric will need to consistently sell 50,000 units every month in order to achieve profitability, says founder and chief executive officer (CEO) Bhavish Aggarwal. To be sure, Ola Electric has faced considerable criticism due to widespread customer complaints about poor service centre experience. In September last year, Mint reported that Ola's service centre backlogs had risen to 80,000 customer complaints per month.Speaking to an analyst, Aggarwal claimed that the company had recaptured its market leadership in terms of volumes with 25,000 units sold in January.The company has consistently been under pressure, with Ola Electric's shares losing about 2% on Friday alone to settle at ₹70 apiece on the BSE—only 8% off its all-time low.  The company has suffered a quarterly net loss of ₹564 crore in the last quarter of 2024.Aggarwal, however, claimed that the company “maintained a steady industry leadership with a market share of over 25%.”  The recent deportation of 104 illegal migrants to India by the US government has sparked controversy in the Indian Parliament. In the midst of this debate, Prime Minister Narendra Modi is scheduled to visit the United States from February 12 to 13, where he will engage in discussions with President Donald Trump, as quoted by Indian Foreign Secretary Vikram Misri.Earlier, on January 27, President Trump and Prime Minister Modi held a conversation focused on immigration matters and the importance of India purchasing more American-made security equipment.The United States is India's largest trading partner, with two-way trade surpassing $118 billion in 2023/24, and India recording a trade surplus of $32 billion.As a strategic partner of the United States, India will aim to enhance trade relations, simplify access to skilled worker visas and review import tariffs on over 30 items, including luxury cars, and solar cells, potentially boosting imports from the US amid rising global trade tensions.4)The Reserve Bank of India's monetary policy committee (MPC) on Friday cut the key policy interest rate by 25 basis points to 6.25% to support growth. At a post-policy press conference, new RBI governor Sanjay Malhotra spoke on a range of issues such as implementation of the proposed guidelines on liquidity coverage ratio (LCR), working with the government on various recommendations, geopolitical developments, and the cost of policy actions on regulated entities. It is not only about stability, the implementation of LCR norms comes at a cost. It requires a strict impact analysis and enough time to be implemented. While the Rupee depreciation puts pressure on inflation, a higher worry is how global uncertainties would pan out. 5) Religare Enterprises Ltd chairperson Rashmi Saluja informed shareholders at the company's annual general meeting (AGM) on Friday that she was not retiring as a director, a move that stumped shareholders and proxy advisory firms. However, a third of Religare's investors told Mint that they had voted against Saluja's reappointment as director. Manendra Singh, partner at law firm Economic Laws Practice revealed that "Under the Companies Act, 2013, the chairman can regulate the manner in which voting is conducted, but cannot take away the voting rights of its members.” The Burman family, which owns a little over 25% of Religare, got approvals from all regulatory agencies and offered to buy up to 26% shares from minority investors via an open offer that opened on 27 January. Following the hearing on Gaekwad's appeal, the Supreme Court said the Burmans' open offer cannot be closed until the Sebi decides on the legality of Gaekwad's competing offer.

Around 800- thousand non compliant companies that are going to be de-registered. The Companies and Intellectual Property Commission (CIPC) says the decision is a results of continued low compliance with annual returns, beneficial ownership, and other obligations under the Companies Act. Sakina Kamwendo spoke to CIPC Senior Manager Companies and Close Corporations Advocate Christa Klokow

The central government is considering significant amendments to the Companies Act, 2013, to streamline and simplify the merger, amalgamation, and demerger process. The focus is on reducing procedural bottlenecks and expediting corporate restructuring.  K R Srivats in conversation with Poornima Joshi, Resident Editor, businessline, on the implications of the proposed changes to M&A rules. Listen in. (Host: Poornima Joshi, Subject expert: KR Srivats, Podcast editor: Amitha Rajkumar)

In this episode of our public M&A podcast series, we talk about the latest development in the MWB ruling. As we discussed in Episode 26 of our podcast series, the Takeover Panel last year issued an order to members of management in MWB Group to pay compensation to MWB shareholders of up to £33 million (as well as issuing 10 cold-shoulder rulings). The Takeover Panel has now obtained a court order enforcing its order to pay compensation. In the episode, we: • give a brief reminder of the facts; • talk about the Panel's powers under the Companies Act to seek a court order; and • discuss what the courts have said about when it will grant an order.

Prince Andrew, the Duke of York, has been reported to the Metropolitan Police by the anti-monarchy group Republic for allegedly using a false name, "Andrew Inverness," on official company documents. This accusation pertains to Naples Gold Ltd, a private investment firm he co-founded in 2002 with sports tycoon Johan Eliasch. Republic's chief executive, Graham Smith, contends that this act violates the Companies Act 2006, which mandates accurate disclosure of directorial identities. The Metropolitan Police have acknowledged the report and are currently assessing whether further action is warranted.This incident adds to a series of controversies surrounding Prince Andrew, including his associations with convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein and an alleged Chinese spy, Yang Tengbo. Such actions not only reflect a disregard for legal standards but also undermine public trust in the integrity of the royal institution. The use of a pseudonym, especially one linked to his official title as Earl of Inverness, suggests an attempt to obscure his involvement in private financial ventures, raising questions about transparency and accountability. Given his history of questionable associations and decisions, this latest revelation further tarnishes his reputation and calls into question his judgment and adherence to ethical standards expected of a public figure.(commercial at 8:46)to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Prince Andrew reported to the POLICE after 'using fake name' amid saga around private investments company | Daily Mail Online

Dividend paperwork and documentation are crucial for ensuring compliance with legal regulations. Certainly, adhering to the Companies Act is non-negotiable for limited companies, regardless of size or shareholder structure. Proper records not only safeguard you during audits but also provide clarity for future financial decisions. Accordingly, maintaining accurate records is a wise discipline that helps avoid unnecessary complications.Essential Documents for DividendsThere are two primary documents every company must prepare for dividends. Firstly, board meeting minutes are required. These minutes document the decision to declare dividends, including the date, attendees, and confirmation of sufficient post-tax profits. Secondly, a dividend voucher acts as a receipt for the dividend payment. This voucher must include the company name, payment date, shareholder details, and the number of shares held. Together, these documents ensure compliance with legal standards and serve as proof during tax audits.Steps for ComplianceFollowing a clear process is essential when issuing dividends. First, check your accounts to confirm there are adequate post-tax profits. Then, hold a formal board meeting to declare the dividend. Next, prepare the necessary paperwork, including the minutes and vouchers. Finally, pay the dividend and retain copies of all documents for your records. Notably, even sole director-shareholder companies must follow these steps.Consequences of Non-ComplianceIgnoring dividend paperwork and documentation can lead to serious consequences. HMRC may question the legitimacy of payments, and in worst cases, label them as illegal dividends. Consequently, directors might have to repay these amounts, causing financial strain. Additionally, a lack of clarity can lead to confusion in tax filings and delays in financial reporting.Final ThoughtsDividend paperwork and documentation ensure legal compliance and financial clarity. Thus, taking time to plan and organise pays off in the long run. For further insights, listen to the I Hate Numbers podcast, where we simplify financial processes to help your business succeed.

Dividends and the Director's Loan Account are essential topics for any business owner who operates through a limited company. Firstly, dividends represent payments made to shareholders from a company's post-tax profits. Unlike wages, dividends do not attract National Insurance contributions. Consequently, they are a tax-efficient way to reward shareholders. However, dividends can only be issued if the company has sufficient profits and positive reserves. Proper documentation, such as board meeting minutes and dividend vouchers, is a legal requirement.Introducing the Director's Loan Account (DLA)A Director's Loan Account (DLA) serves as a vital record within a company's financial framework, meticulously documenting the intricate financial interplay between the company and its directors. Essentially, it functions as a ledger, meticulously tracking all financial transactions that transpire between these two entities. This encompasses a spectrum of activities, including instances where directors generously contribute their personal funds to bolster the company's resources, or when they personally shoulder company expenses. In such scenarios, the DLA faithfully reflects these contributions as credits, acknowledging the director's investment in the company's well-being. Conversely, when directors withdraw funds from the company, receive reimbursements for company-related expenses, or draw a salary, these transactions are duly recorded as debits within the DLA, providing a transparent and accurate accounting of the director's financial interactions with the company.Link Between Dividends and DLAThe connection between dividends and the DLA is noteworthy. Whenever a DLA becomes overdrawn—i.e., the director owes money to the company—it may result in tax consequences. Accordingly, dividends are often used to clear these overdrawn balances, provided there are sufficient profits. Nonetheless, ensuring compliance with the Companies Act is vital to avoid penalties.Key ConsiderationsAltogether, understanding these financial tools is vital for effective business management. Equally important is maintaining proper records and seeking professional advice. Notwithstanding the complexities, staying informed ensures you remain compliant while maximising benefits.Final ThoughtsLastly, dividends and the Director's Loan Account are significant aspects of running a limited company. Therefore, staying aware of your legal and financial responsibilities is essential.

Shareholders and directors each have unique roles and responsibilities within a company, yet people often confuse the two. As we discuss this in the episode, we aim to clarify these distinctions for UK companies. However, these principles apply broadly to companies outside the UK as well.Defining Shareholders and DirectorsFirstly, shareholders are the actual owners of the company, holding shares that signify their ownership stake. They may be individuals or entities, and their liability typically extends only to unpaid shares. Comparatively, directors handle the day-to-day management of the company. Appointed by shareholders, they implement strategy, make decisions, and hold legal responsibilities in line with the Companies Act.Roles and ResponsibilitiesShareholders' RolesNotably, shareholders primarily provide investment and vote on significant decisions, including director appointments and any alterations to the articles of association. Consequently, they share in company profits through dividends. Their role remains generally passive in day-to-day operations unless they also serve as directors.Directors' ResponsibilitiesDirectors, on the other hand, have an active role, managing daily operations, hiring staff, and negotiating contracts. Additionally, they hold legal obligations to act within their powers, promote company success, and avoid conflicts of interest. Any breach of these duties could result in personal liability, especially in cases of wrongful trading.Financial BenefitsShareholders benefit from dividends and any capital growth over time, while directors may receive salaries, bonuses, and other benefits. This separation clarifies both parties' financial stakes and obligations within the business.Summing It UpAltogether, shareholders own the company, providing investments and voting on major decisions, while directors manage daily operations and uphold legal responsibilities. Although these roles may overlap in smaller companies, understanding each role's distinct duties fosters smoother company operations.To gain more insights into managing roles and responsibilities in your business, listen to the I Hate Numbers podcastThis podcast uses the following third-party services for analysis: Chartable - https://chartable.com/privacy

Welcome to Top of the Morning by Mint, your weekday newscast that brings you five major stories from the world of business. It's Wednesday, 18 September 2024. My name is Nelson John. Let's get started.Indian benchmark indices, the Nifty and the Sensex, saw a marginal rise on Tuesday as traders remained cautious ahead of US Fed's policy decision. The Nifty ended the session with a 0.14% gain while the Sensex ended with a 0.11% rise.On Tuesday, we wrote about Brookfield's plans to venture into the semiconductor fabrication sector. The sector is hot — today, Gulveen Aulakh and Shouvik Das report that the Adani Group wants a piece of this pie too. It's planning a joint venture with Israel-based company “Tower Semiconductor”. The JV will be based in Maharashtra's Raigad district. While the chips to come out of this factory will meet the Adani Group's requirements, they will also cater to foreign demand.Millions of investors are trying to make a small fortune in IPOs. Every new listing, irrespective of its size, is oversubscribed dozens of times at least. Why? Cases like Bajaj Housing Finance, which doubled when it debuted on Dalal Street on Monday. Listing day gains aren't a new concept, but it's incredibly difficult to secure an allotment for a new IPO. Sashind Ningthoukhongjam writes about strategies one could adopt if they want better chances at securing allotment. You can apply via the shareholder quota, or the small high net investor quota as well. This is a good read for you if you've missed out on some of the blockbuster IPOs we've had this year.Urban Company's early investors, Steadview Capital, Elevation Capital, and Accel, are eyeing a partial exit, planning to sell off stakes worth $100-150 million. This move is part of a broader trend where early backers cash out before a company hits the public markets, and Urban Company is preparing for an IPO next year. These secondary sales let old investors liquidate at a valuation slightly under Urban Company's estimated $2.6 billion—a strategic move as they near the end of their fund cycles. Mint's Sneha Shah and Priyamvada C report on the secondary share sale at Urban Company - something that reflects a broader trend in the Indian startup scene.What's your portfolio mix?.... Most savvy investors would say stocks, mutual funds, gold and real estate. But there's a new player in town: “Rare Collectibles”. Dipti Sharma writes that Indian investors are diversifying into luxury items like art, vintage cars and luxury watches. Rare Japanese whiskeys are part of such investments too, as the market now has both buyers and sellers. Some experts believe that these collectibles will turn into a key asset class. What rich Indians once bought for personal enjoyments, are now treated as investments that could give you decent returns.Back in 2013, India launched a plan to strengthen small farmers by creating Farmer Producer Companies  or FPCs, giving them the power to negotiate better deals and manage resources collectively, similar to successful dairy co-ops like Amul. Farmers buy shares in these FPCs, which then operate under the Companies Act—this shields them from political and bureaucratic hassles and allows them to tap into government grants. Fast forward to today, and there are over 9,000 FPCs with more than 2 million members, about 28% of whom are women, writes Sayantan Bera. These FPCs have broadened their reach, securing licences to sell everything from seeds to processed foods, helping farmers get better prices and market access. However, it's not all smooth sailing. Many FPCs struggle with getting enough working capital; high interest rates from loans make growth tough. Is Adani's semiconductor play a long term game?Struggling with IPO allotments? Tips to boost your chancesUrban Company's early backers Steadview, Elevation, Accel to sell partial stakeFrom pink dogs to fine wine, India's wealthy diversify into rare collectiblesMicro Amul: Are farmer-run companies the next big idea in Indian agriculture?

On Legal Matters Matter this evening we look at the issue of Fiduciary duties of executives and the legal consequences. The company is bound by the decisions of its directors. Transgression on any of their legal obligations under the Companies Act can result in loss, costs, physical and reputational damages. As such, a director may be held personally liable for these consequences if found to be in breach of their fiduciary duty to act with care, skill and diligence. Galeboe Modisapodi, Employment Relations & Employee Benefits Consultant, Accredited Commercial Mediator who's Partnered with Molatudi Advisory Services (MAS), joins us to discuss what the Employment Equity Act and what protection you have from discrimination in the workplace and also what remedies are available to you if you are unfairly discriminated against.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Balancing directors' safety and accountability is the goal of the Commerce Minister's shake up of the Companies Act.   Andrew Bayly is looking to make it harder to "phoenix", in which assets are transferred from indebted companies to new ones, leaving the former to face insolvency.    He says they want to make it easier to catch directors doing the wrong thing, which will be done by assigning every director a unique digital number.  Another measure is allowing directors to take their home addresses off the companies register.   Andrew Bayly says there's a perception of risk, especially among female directors, and they will instead be able to list a more work-related address such as an office, or a related entity like a lawyer or an accountant.  LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The importance of board training has been brought to light, with several company directors having been brought to task under the Companies Act for governance issues in recent months. Their wrongdoings range from minor offences such as not holding regular annual general meetings or not filing annual returns on time, to more serious ones like dereliction of duty, cheating and fraud. As part of efforts to equip directors with essential skills needed in their roles, the Institute of Singapore Chartered Accountants (ISCA), launched its Board Of Directors Masterclass Programme in February this year.  On this episode of Advancing Accountancy, we hear more about the training programme from Zoey Xie, Acting Managing Director at the ISCA Academy.

Victoria discusses the Mainzeal Supreme Court judgement and the significance for company directors.The Supreme Court rejected an appeal the appeal of the four directors of the collapsed construction firm with $39.8m in damages, plus interest, awarded against them for breaching the Companies Act. Also workplace safety at Talleys is in the spotlight, and she looks at the locking in of some public service Chief Executives to the 2026 election and beyond. BusinessDesk investigations editor, Victoria Young.

Subcontractors still owed big chunks of money from construction firm Mainzeal's collapse a decade ago say they'll get a pittance back and do not believe justice has been served. Former Prime Minister Dame Jenny Shipley and her fellow directors of Mainzeal have lost their Supreme Court appeal and must now pay $40 million plus interest for reckless trading. The directors breached the Companies Act when they knew the firm was insolvent but continued to trade, leaving creditors and subcontractors $110 million out of pocket. Amy Williams reports. Andrew McKay is a forensic accounting specialist with Mainzeal liquidator's BDO, who brought the claims against the company's directors, he spoke to Lisa Owen.

The Supreme Court has rejected the appeal of the four directors of the collapsed construction firm Mainzeal and ordered them to pay 39-point-8-million dollars for breaching the Companies Act. It's upheld lower court decisions that former managing director Richard Yan and three other directors, former prime minister Dame Jenny Shipley, Clive Tilby and Peter Gromm, traded the firm recklessly and failed to protect the interests of creditors. RNZ Business Editor Gyles Beckford discusses the case.

What is insolvency?  It is a state when a business or a person is unable to pay debts on time. And it often leads to a bankruptcy filing. Insolvency and Bankruptcy Code, 2016 Passed in 2016, IBC governs insolvency and bankruptcy proceedings for companies, partnership firms, and individuals. It subsumed several laws such as the Companies Act 2013. Insolvency process under the bankruptcy code was a significant reform for resolution of companies facing financial distress. Even though it still has a long way to go, the insolvency and bankruptcy code has managed to deal with over 2,000 cases either through resolution or liquidation. Pre-packaged insolvency resolution process Micro small and medium enterprises or MSMEs are the backbone of the Indian economy. They generate millions of jobs and the health of these companies is crucial for sustained growth. In the wake of Covid pandemic, a pre-packaged insolvency resolution was introduced in April 2021 to deal with stress of these small and mid-sized companies. The idea was that resolution of distressed MSMEs requires different treatment due to the unique nature of their businesses. Pre-packaged insolvency process is an alternate and speedier resolution mechanism for micro, medium and small enterprises in financial distress. However, the scope of pre-packaged insolvency processes is larger than just Covid stress. It seeks to achieve quicker, cost-effective and value maximising resolution and at the same time making it least disruptive for the continuity of businesses. The entire resolution process has to be completed in 120 days from the date of initiation. If the default amounts range anywhere between Rs 10 lakh to Rs 1 crore, the pre-packaged insolvency process kicks in. If the defaults are higher than the said amount, a corporate insolvency resolution process under the IBC would be initiated. Unlike in the corporate insolvency process, the pre-packaged insolvency process allows for an informal understanding between creditors and debtors. The informal understanding is the way of debt resolution of distressed companies before insolvency initiation. After 66% of creditors approve the informal proposal, the pre-packaged insolvency resolution process begins. However, only two cases have been admitted so far under the pre-packaged insolvency process, which is quite low. According to reports, the poor response for the mechanism was due to the hesitancy of financial institutions. In the corporate insolvency resolution process, haircut is a last resort and in pre-packaged process, it is voluntary. Banks are reportedly not willing to initiate pre-packaged insolvency processes due to voluntary haircuts.

Byju Raveendran, the founder and CEO of India's highest valued start-up Byju's, will be relieved that the past six months are behind him and his company. In an interview he gave to Business Standard after revealing his company's FY21 financials, Raveendran said that now, the company was prepared. Asserting that this kind of thing happens only once, he said the edtech giant was strengthening the finance function and would hire a global CFO soon.  Raveendran also said the company is now prepared not only for the next year but also to live the life of a public company, whenever it decides to cross that bridge.  However, the FY21 financials don't paint a pretty picture. The company's operational revenue on a consolidated basis grew just 4% year-on-year to Rs 2,280 crore. And the losses jumped 20 times, to Rs 4,589 crore. BYJU's FY20 loss was adjusted to Rs 232 crore. But why have the company's revenues remained flat despite Raveendran claiming significant business growth during the fiscal? This was due to a new revenue recognition practice adopted in FY21. This change was sought by its audit firm Deloitte Haskins and Sells.  BYJU's started recognising streaming revenue over the period of consumption, which was previously recognised fully on the commencement of the contract. Credit and EMI sales will also get recognised after complete collection. This meant that revenue from sales made under deferred payment terms totalling 1,156 crore rupees was not recognised because, according to the auditor, “BYJU's did not meet the criteria that it was probable it will collect the consideration to which it is entitled”.  Deloitte further highlighted difficulties in the auditing process. Under normal circumstances, the fee paid to Deloitte for statutory audit would have grown from 73 lakh rupees in FY20 to 1 crore rupees.  However, Deloitte said it charged Rs 3.5 crore extra as statutory audit fees because of “the additional effort incurred in the audit consequent to material weaknesses observed in internal controls”  Owing to the pandemic, the auditor said BYJU's faced hardships not only in terms of business operations but also in implementation and operating effectiveness of certain internal controls over financial reporting.  As BYJU's diverted its effort toward integrating and streamlining the operations of the various entities it acquired post the end of the financial year, it resulted in delays in the preparation of the financial statements for FY21.  As a consequence, BYJU's could not comply with certain provisions of the Companies Act. Ultimately though, it received a clean audit report from Deloitte, notwithstanding the complexities involved in reworking the numbers based on the new revenue recognition model. It's interesting to note that the share of India in BYJU's total revenue went down from 73% to 43%. Meanwhile, Middle East's share jumped from 11% to 22% and US's share increased from 16% to 35%.  WhiteHat Jr, which the startup acquired in August 2020, has played spoilsport in BYJU's financials. Raveendran said bringing down high customer acquisition costs at WhiteHat Jr is the only business challenge he has. From the date of acquisition, Whitehat Jr has contributed just Rs 326.66 crore to total revenue of BYJU's but Rs 1,548 crore to the loss before tax from operations. Shriram Subramanian, Founder and MD, InGovern Research Services says embedding of processes has not kept pace with BYJU's break-neck speed of growth. Evidence suggests that the worst is not behind for BYJU's. Reputational hit will make raising money more tough amid difficult funding environment. The string of bad news that has followed Byju's has also had an impact on the brand. Christopher Roberts, Founder & Managing Director, Engaged Strategy, says negative word of mouth from customers, employees damaging Byju's brand. The worst is not behind for BYJU's if it does not chan

At a time when airports across the country are seeing a jump in the traffic, the soaring prices of fuel are threatening to skid the airline business off the runway. Oil marketing companies raised the price of aviation turbine fuel (ATF) by a steep 16% on Thursday. It leaves the pandemic-ravaged airlines with no other option, but to pass on some burden to fliers. It seems that the worst is not over yet for airlines and the travel and tourism industries. Find out how an upcoming hike in airfares -- which looks imminent now -- will impact these industries. Markets too are passing through turbulent weather. And stocks are falling like ninepins. So, with the US Fed and the RBI making their priorities clear, how should investors approach the markets? How is market veteran Shankar Sharma, founder, First Global tackling ongoing headwinds? Business Standard's Puneet Wadhwa caught up with him to understand his interpretation of the recent developments and find out his investment strategy. Meanwhile, the benchmark S&P BSE Sensex and the Nifty50 indices hit 52-week lows on Thursday, as economists feared a recession could be around the corner for the United States. And even though the US Fed raised its key rate by 75 basis points to curb inflation, markets watchers see more pain ahead for the US and Indian markets. Apart from private firms listed at stock exchanges, there is another set of companies which are formed for charitable purposes only. Both of them have at least two shareholders and two directors -- but their objectives are completely opposite. While a private listed company is formed for profit, a company formed under Section 8 -- erstwhile Section 25 -- of the Companies Act 1956 are for charity purpose only. Find out about the latter in this episode of the podcast amd more.  Watch video

Before we delve deeper into the specifics of the Section 8 of the Companies Act, let us first skim through the case which brought it into the news. Congress chief Sonia Gandhi and party MP Rahul Gandhi were recently summoned by the Enforcement Directorate for questioning in a case of money laundering registered against them. Sonia could not appear as she was admitted to Delhi's Ganga Ram hospital due to Covid-19 complications. But Rahul did. So what is the case? In 1938, Jawahar Lal Nehru had founded a newspaper called National Herald-- which went on to become a prominent voice against British rule. Its publishing company, Associated Journals Limited or AJL, also used to take out Hindi paper Navjivan and Urdu daily Qaumi Awaz. But, over the years, it lost steam. And about 70 years later, in 2008, AJL stopped publishing the papers due to continued losses. Meanwhile, to save the paper, Congress had given interest-free loans to AJL reportedly from the party funds. By 2008, AJL -- which had about 1,000 shareholders -- owed about Rs 90 crore to Congress. It was then that AJL stocks were transferred to Young Indian (YIL) -- a private charitable company formed by Gandhis in 2010 under Section 25 of the Companies Act. In 2013, BJP MP Subramanian Swamy filed a complaint alleging corruption. He asked how AJL -- which had assets worth Rs 2,000 crore in prime locations-- can be bought for just Rs 50lakh? Congress rejected the charges. It said that YIL was a not-for-profit company, and no profit or dividend can be doled out to its shareholders or directors – in this case the Gandhis. The party also insisted that AJL continues to be the owner of National Herald and there is no transfer of property. So what is Section 8 of Companies Act and why firms are floated under this provision.   If a company is being floated to promote social welfare, it can either get itself registered as a trust under the Trust Act, 1882 or the Societies Registration Act, 1860. Or it can choose to register itself as a not-for-profit organisation under Section 8 of the Companies Act, 2013 -- previously under Section 25 of the Companies Act, 1956. A company is registered as a non-profit organisation (NPO) under the Section 8 to promote education, charity, religion, arts, commerce, environment, sports, science, research, social welfare. And the profit earned by the organisation cannot be used for paying out dividends to its members. It can only be used to promote the purpose it has been set up for. The licence for such companies is issued by the central government. While the authorization for the trust is given by state governments.  And these companies can get the tax benefits if it gets registration under section 80G and 12AA of IT act. Some examples of Section 8 companies are Azim Premji Foundation, Reliance Foundation, Reliance Research Institute, Coca Cola India Foundation and Amazon Academic Foundation.
