“Welcome back! How was your trip to Mumbai?”

“It was really hectic. The organisers kept us busy from morning till evening.”

“Did you stay with your uncle the five days you were there?”

“No, all participants stayed in the same hotel. I didn’t have the time to visit anyone.”

“That’s too bad. I’m sure your uncle was very disappointed. You said that everyone stayed in the same hotel. Shouldn’t it be everyone stayed at the same hotel?”

“Both are possible. One can stay in a hotel or at a hotel. For example, the children loved their stay at the Taj because of the swimming pool.”

“The next time I go to Goa, I plan to stay in a hotel near the beach.”

“Staying in a hotel near the beach is expensive, but it’s worth it. By the way, congratulations! I hear that your brother has decided to tie the knot.”

“Tie the knot? What are you talking about?”

“When you tell someone that you are going to be tying the knot, what you are saying is that you’re getting married. The expression is mostly used in informal contexts.”

“I see. Two of my cousins tied the knot a couple of months ago.”

“That’s a good example. I don’t plan to tie the knot anytime soon. How about you?”

“You’re joking right! How can I get married when I don’t even have a job?”

“You have a point there. Anyway, has a date been fixed for your brother’s wedding?”

“No, not yet! It’s unlikely to be anytime soon.”

“Why is that? Is he busy with some project at the moment?”

“I’m not really sure about that. You see till now, his interactions with the girl have been online. The girl feels that she’ll be able to decide about things only after a face-to-face meeting with my brother.”

“Good for her. Makes a lot of sense, actually. Seeing a person online is one thing. Sitting a couple of feet away from him and talking….”

“And talking to him is a completely different experience. I agree. My parents were really happy that she insisted on a face-to-face meeting.”

“So, when is the meeting in meatspace taking place?”

“Meatspace? What are you talking about? You know we’re vegetarians, right?”

“Yes, I know you’re a vegetarian. The term ‘meatspace’ is used to refer to the physical world — the actual world we live in.”

“In other words, ‘meatspace’ is the opposite of ‘cyberspace’. It’s not the online world.”

“Very good. It is everything offline. All face-to-face meetings are done in meatspace.”

“Let’s meet next week in meatspace at our favourite coffee shop. How does that sound?”

“That’s a very good example. Many of our office meeting take place online, but a few do take place in meatspace.”

“I’m sure most people prefer the meetings that take place in meatspace.”

“Of course, they do. For very obvious reasons. When we get together in meatspace, we’re always given something to eat and drink.”

“Like a samosa and a cup of tea?”

“That’s right. By the way, ‘meatspace’ is not a new word. It’s been a part of the English language since the early 1990s.”

“Marriage is an attempt to solve problems together you didn’t even have when you were on your own.”

Today's Editorial (29-06-2024)

A fresh start: On the Goods and Services Tax Council meet
The GST Council must not lose sight of broader reforms

The Goods and Services Tax (GST) Council was convened last week for the first time in nearly nine months. With 11 new State Ministers on board and a recalibrated NDA government at the Centre, the Council began afresh with a loaded agenda of clarifications, tweaks, forbearances, and other procedural changes, based on industry feedback and vetted by officials, that awaited its nod. Acknowledging that it could not conclude deliberations on all that had accumulated on its plate, the Council has resolved to meet again in August to take up the rest of the items. Yet, it is quite creditable that the Council could, over an afternoon preceded by Union Budget consultations with States, arrive at a consensus on a flurry of issues aimed at easing the lot of taxpayers, reducing litigation, and even providing tax relief on some items. To help students, hostel accommodation costing up to ₹20,000 a month has been exempted from GST altogether, along with railway services availed by passengers. A uniform 12% rate has been approved for packing cartons, milk cans, and solar cookers, doing away with confusing classification differences based on material or technologies.

Apart from several industry-specific measures, a few of which will kick in with retrospective effect, the Council also opted to waive interest and penalty on tax dues for the first three years of GST, provided they are paid by March 2025. Moreover, it lowered the stipulated pre-deposits for filing appeals, including those that will be filed with the upcoming GST Appellate Tribunals, and approved a new form for taxpayers to correct errors or oversights in previous returns. Beyond nitty-gritties, the Council also signed off on ending the anti-profiteering clause that required firms to pass on any tax cut gains to customers, and mandating biometric-based Aadhaar authentication for all GST registrations in a phased manner across India. The former will quell a difficult-to-implement industry irritant, and one hopes the latter will effectively ease the registration process that some say has become cumbersome in recent times, while curbing fraud perpetrated through fake invoicing. The ground-level impact of these moves may depend on the fine print that may follow, but the intent to simplify and declutter the seven-year old indirect tax regime is clear. It is refreshing that the Council also plans to take stock of the 2021 plan to rationalise the multiple-rate GST structure, that has been in cold storage for a while, when it meets next. The apex GST body must not only revive and expedite GST rate reforms but also incorporate a road map to bring excluded items such as petroleum and electricity into the GST net while rejigging tax rates.

“Good morning, Sir.”

“Good morning.”

“Sir, what’s the difference between shall and will?”

“Well, let’s take up shall first. In the first person singular and plural shall expresses future time. ‘I’ is the singular and ‘we’ the plural of the first person. Clear?”

“Yes. Sir.”

“I shall leave for Madras next week.

We shall meet him tomorrow.

We shall go there next Monday.

In all these shall is used to express future time. In the second and third persons, you use shall to express a command or promise. Examples:

You shall not steal.

She shall get a promotion.

You shall not go.

You shall obey him.

They shall come here.

He shall go.

The context will determine whether it is a command or a promise. Will indicates the future in the second and third persons.

He’ll come back.

They will do the work.

She will leave at 7 p.m.

In the first person, will expresses willingness or promise.

I’ll meet him.

We’ll do all that we can.

I’ll try.

“The distinction between shall and will in the first person is observed by very few writers and speakers these days. The contracted form of will, that is ‘ll’, is more frequently used. I’m talking only about affirmative and negative sentences. We’ll discuss later the use of shall and will in interrogative sentences.”

“Sir, we collect things. Do we collect people also? The other day you said, I could come and collect you around twelve.”

“It’s a good question. It’s true we collect things. Collect is also used colloquially in the sense of ‘call for’ ‘fetch’. It is not restricted to things and when you use collect with people, no disrespect is meant!”

“Thank you. Sir. What is the difference between estimate and estimation?”

Estimate is an approximate calculation. You prepare an estimate of a project. Estimation means ‘judgment or opinion.’

In my estimation, it is of no use.

He has fallen in my estimation.”

“What’s the meaning of zizz Sir?”

“It means ‘a short sleep.’ It’s used in informal contexts. You take a zizz or have a zizz. No, not now. I’m telling you how to use the word. Don’t start snoring now. You can almost hear the snore in the very word zizz. Cant you?”

“Yizz, Sir.”

“Well, you are ready for a zizz, goodbye.”

“Thank you, Sir. Goodbye.”

■ India’s Ethanol Conundrum-

✅India's 20% ethanol blending target by 2025 is facing obstacles.

✅Reasons: Low sugar stocks and an impending shortfall in sugarcane production.

● Shift Towards Grains-Based Ethanol:

✅The government is considering a transition towards grains-based ethanol to meet the target, particularly focusing on maize.

✅The authorization of NAFED and NCCF to procure maize for ethanol distilleries signals an idea emphasis on this transition.

● Crude and Food Prices Connection:

✅Ethanol production globally relies on feedstocks like sugarcane (Brazil) and corn (the US).

✅A historical connection exists between crude oil and food prices, especially with the use of corn for ethanol production.

✅High crude prices drive up ethanol and corn prices, impacting global food prices and contributing to the 2006-14 global food crisis.

✅At low crude prices, ethanol blending is not competitive; it is a slow process driven by heavy subsidies.

● Challenges and Food-Fuel Conflict:

✅Using grains like corn for ethanol directly diverts grain from food or livestock feed, creating a food-fuel conflict.

✅India's move towards maize-based ethanol may pose challenges for the economy, particularly in terms of potential food inflation.

● Differential Pricing:

✅India introduced differential pricing in 2017-18, incentivizing the use of cane juice for ethanol, leading to challenges in sugar stocks.

✅A corrective step was taken with a Ministry of Consumer Affairs order banning the use of cane juice for ethanol production.

✅According to government estimates, to meet the EBP target by 2025, India needs 16.5 million tonnes of grains annually.

● Way Forward:

✅The government faces a delicate food-fuel trade-off, choosing between intensifying hunger and reducing fossil fuel use.

✅Options include reconsidering the ethanol blending target or investing more in public infrastructure, urban design and renewables.


■ भारत की इथेनॉल पहेली-

✅भारत का 2025 तक 20% इथेनॉल मिश्रण लक्ष्य बाधाओं का सामना कर रहा है।

✅कारण: कम चीनी स्टॉक और गन्ना उत्पादन में आसन्न कमी।

● अनाज आधारित इथेनॉल की ओर बदलाव:

✅सरकार लक्ष्य को पूरा करने के लिए अनाज आधारित इथेनॉल की ओर बदलाव पर विचार कर रही है, विशेष रूप से मक्का पर ध्यान केंद्रित कर रही है।

✅इथेनॉल डिस्टिलरी के लिए मक्का खरीदने के लिए NAFED और NCCF को अधिकृत करना इस बदलाव पर एक विचार जोर देने का संकेत देता है।

● कच्चे तेल और खाद्य कीमतों का संबंध:

✅विश्व स्तर पर इथेनॉल उत्पादन गन्ना (ब्राजील) और मक्का (अमेरिका) जैसे फीडस्टॉक पर निर्भर करता है।

✅कच्चे तेल और खाद्य कीमतों के बीच एक ऐतिहासिक संबंध मौजूद है, विशेष रूप से इथेनॉल उत्पादन के लिए मकई के उपयोग के साथ।

✅कच्चे तेल की ऊंची कीमतों के कारण इथेनॉल और मकई की कीमतें बढ़ जाती हैं, जिससे वैश्विक खाद्य कीमतें प्रभावित होती हैं और 2006-14 के वैश्विक खाद्य संकट में योगदान मिलता है।

✅कच्चे तेल की कम कीमतों पर, इथेनॉल मिश्रण प्रतिस्पर्धी नहीं है; यह भारी सब्सिडी द्वारा संचालित एक धीमी प्रक्रिया है।

● चुनौतियाँ और खाद्य-ईंधन संघर्ष:

✅इथेनॉल के लिए मकई जैसे अनाज का उपयोग करने से अनाज सीधे भोजन या पशुधन फ़ीड से हट जाता है, जिससे खाद्य-ईंधन संघर्ष पैदा होता है।

✅मक्का आधारित इथेनॉल की ओर भारत का कदम अर्थव्यवस्था के लिए चुनौतियाँ खड़ी कर सकता है, खासकर संभावित खाद्य मुद्रास्फीति के संदर्भ में।

● विभेदक मूल्य निर्धारण:

✅भारत ने 2017-18 में विभेदक मूल्य निर्धारण की शुरुआत की, जिससे इथेनॉल के लिए गन्ने के रस के उपयोग को बढ़ावा मिला, जिससे चीनी स्टॉक में चुनौतियाँ पैदा हुईं।

✅उपभोक्ता मामलों के मंत्रालय द्वारा इथेनॉल उत्पादन के लिए गन्ने के रस के उपयोग पर प्रतिबंध लगाने के आदेश के साथ एक सुधारात्मक कदम उठाया गया।

✅सरकारी अनुमानों के अनुसार, 2025 तक ईबीपी लक्ष्य को पूरा करने के लिए भारत को सालाना 16.5 मिलियन टन अनाज की आवश्यकता होगी।

● आगे की राह:

✅सरकार को खाद्य-ईंधन के बीच एक नाजुक व्यापार-बंद का सामना करना पड़ रहा है, जिसमें भूख को बढ़ाना और जीवाश्म ईंधन के उपयोग को कम करना शामिल है।

✅विकल्पों में इथेनॉल मिश्रण लक्ष्य पर पुनर्विचार करना या सार्वजनिक बुनियादी ढांचे, शहरी डिजाइन और नवीकरणीय ऊर्जा में अधिक निवेश करना शामिल है।

Net damage: On the fisheries dispute, India and Sri Lanka
​India’s fisherfolk must be weaned away from bottom trawling

The resumption of fishing off India’s eastern coast including the Palk Bay, after the annual 61-day ban on fishing, has led to the death of a sailor from the Sri Lanka Navy. The Sri Lankan Navy had carried out an operation on June 25 morning to “chase away a cluster of Indian poaching trawlers” in Sri Lankan waters off Kankesanthurai, near Jaffna. A trawler-vessel was impounded and 10 fishermen apprehended, of whom eight were from Tamil Nadu and the rest from Andhra Pradesh. There have also been several cases of Indian (Tamil Nadu) fishermen dying too. The Tamil Nadu Chief Minister, M.K. Stalin, sought the intervention of the External Affairs Minister, S. Jaishankar, in releasing the vessel and the men. In his reply sent to the Chief Minister on Thursday, Mr. Jaishankar said the Indian High Commission had been seeking the early release of 34 fishermen in judicial remand and six others who were serving sentences.

This is an opportunity for the two countries to revive the negotiation process, exclusively to deal with the fisheries dispute, which became aggravated in the wake of the 1974 and 1976 bilateral agreements to demarcate their maritime boundary lines. Mr. Stalin has done well to remind Mr. Jaishankar to convene a meeting of the Joint Working Group, last held (virtually) over two years ago. The acts of Indian fishermen crossing the international maritime boundary line are clearly illegal; factors relating to protection of livelihood opportunities cannot be delinked from the importance of the preservation of the marine ecosystem. A gradual replacement of bottom trawlers being used by the Tamil Nadu fishermen is a must, but the fisherfolk require time to prepare for diversification — deep sea fishing, marine cage farming, seaweed cultivation and processing, and sea ranching. The experiences of the deep sea fishing project, being executed by the Union and Tamil Nadu governments, are clear enough to conclude that it is a failure. After nearly seven years of implementation, only 61 deep sea fishing vessels have been handed over to beneficiaries, with 19 more under construction. It would be thoughtful if the Union government clubs the project with an all-India programme, where the unit cost of a deep sea fishing vessel is ₹40 lakh higher, at least to get a better response even at this stage. The unit cost of a deep sea fishing vessel under the Central-State project is ₹80 lakh. New Delhi and Colombo can devise additional schemes to help the Northern Province’s fishermen even more. But what is more important is that the two countries, representatives of the fishing community and officials from Tamil Nadu and the Northern Province should meet soon to find a way out of the dispute.
