What’s Happening Beyond Markets?
- The Union Cabinet on Friday, July 31, approved the ₹84,084 crore Samudra Manthan scheme to boost oil and natural gas exploration and production in India’s Exclusive Economic Zone (EEZ), in one of the government’s biggest policy pushes to strengthen domestic energy security.
- The Union Government’s fiscal deficit has reached 18.2% of the fiscal 2027 target and came in at ₹3.08 lakh crore for the month of June, according to data released by the Controller General of Accounts. In the year-ago period, India’s fiscal deficit had reached 17.9% of the annual target. The US-Iran war has severely impacted crude prices in the last few months, in turn widening the gap between expenditure and revenue for the nation.
- The Union Cabinet has approved the Pradhan Mantri Surya Sarovar Yojana (PM-SSY), a ₹5,070-crore scheme aimed at significantly expanding India’s floating solar power capacity with integrated battery energy storage systems.
- Deeping bilateral ties, India and Bhutan have reviewed the progress and implementation of India-supported projects across diverse sectors in Bhutan. Further, they inked a pact for a concessional line of credit of ₹4,000 crore (Nu 40 billion) to support development initiatives in Bhutan. The agreement was exchanged between the Export-Import Bank of India and Bhutan’s Ministry of Finance.
