SEBI Opposes Kirloskar Oil Engines’ Plea in SAT

The tribunal has granted SEBI six weeks to submit its response, with the next hearing scheduled for 7 April.

The Securities and Exchange Board of India (SEBI) informed the Securities Appellate Tribunal (SAT) that its advisory to Kirloskar Oil Engines (KOEL) was administrative in nature and, therefore, not subject to appeal.

The tribunal has granted SEBI six weeks to submit its response, with the next hearing scheduled for 7 April. SAT has also allowed KOEL the option to approach the tribunal again if there are “subsequent developments,” according to a legal representative.

KOEL had approached SAT to challenge Sebi’s advisory recommending the disclosure of a 2009 Deed of Family Settlement (DFS), which Kirloskar Brothers Limited (KBL) argues should be made public. The DFS outlines the division of ownership, management, and control of various listed and unlisted Kirloskar entities among family branches.

Both KOEL and KBL, publicly traded companies, are central to this family dispute.

Meanwhile, KBL has filed a petition seeking to intervene in SAT regarding KOEL’s appeal. If approved, KBL would have the opportunity to present its arguments in the case. A legal representative stated that the intervention petition would be addressed during the next hearing.

Centre Cuts Jet Fuel and Diesel Taxes, Raises Petroleum Crude Export Tax

Aniruddh Shrivastava

The central government on Tuesday hiked the windfall tax, a tax levied on an unforeseen or unexpectedly large profit, on crude petroleum producers by 4.41%, scrapped Rs 4 per litre levy on Aviation Turbine Fuel (ATF) exports, and reduced the cess on the export of diesel from Rs 11 to Rs 5 per litre.
The Centre has cut the taxes on jet fuel to zero from 4 per litre and diesel to 5 per litre from 11 per litre. All the changes will come into effect from today, August 3.

Also, the government has levied fresh taxes on the export of petrol, diesel and Aviation Turbine Fuel (ATF) and on domestic sale of crude oil. This is in pursuance of runaway global prices. The plan is to review the taxation levels every fortnight.

Tuesday’s revision takes the cess on the production of each tonne of petroleum crude to Rs 17,750 from Rs 17,000 which was imposed from July 20.
The levy is aimed at checking windfall profits for domestic oil producers who sell their output at international parity prices even to domestic refineries. Between July 1 and July 19, it was Rs 23,250 a tonne.

Cooking gas LPG price on Wednesday was increased by Rs 50 per cylinder, the second hike in rate this month following firming of international prices.
Also, aviation turbine fuel (ATF) price was raised by a steep 6.3 per cent. Non-subsidized LPG price was increased to Rs 694 per 14.2-kg cylinder from Rs 644 earlier, according to a price notification of state fuel marketing companies.
This is the second increase in rate this month. On December 1, the price was hiked by a similar Rs 50 per cylinder. Before that, the price had remained unchanged at Rs 594 a cylinder since July.
This was the same rate at which subsidized LPG refills are also sold. Since May, most cooking gas customers have not received subsidies as the combination of international oil price collapse and domestic refill rate increases brought parity between subsidized and market rates.
A subsidized cooking gas cylinder was priced at Rs 497 in Delhi in June 2019. Since then, prices have cumulatively gone up by Rs 147.
This is the second increase in ATF price this month. Rates had gone up by 7.6 per cent on December 1. Like LPG, ATF prices to are revised on the 1st and 16th of every month based on the average rate of benchmark international fuel and foreign exchange rate in the preceding fortnight.

Meanwhile, OPEC (Organization of Petroleum Countries) cuts its projected oil demand level for the first quarter of the coming year as OPEC+ group, which includes the OPEC, Russia, and other allies has decided to increase the crude oil production by 500,000 barrels per day from January.
On January 4, OPEC+ will held its meeting to further consider any possible cut in the increased monthly supplies although a report from the group on Monday suggests that it can incrementally restore production level over the next quarter without increasing supply in the market.
