The Pitfalls of India’s Sugar-Based Biofuel Strategy: More Problems Than Solutions

In recent years, India has been actively exploring alternative energy sources to reduce its reliance on fossil fuels and mitigate environmental challenges. One of the strategies gaining traction is the use of sugar as a feedstock for biofuel production. While it may seem like a promising solution at first glance, closer examination reveals that India’s push to use sugar for fuel may create more problems than it solves.

 

One of the primary reasons behind India’s interest in sugar-based biofuels is its abundance of sugarcane, a crop widely cultivated in the country. The idea is to convert sugarcane into ethanol, a biofuel that can be blended with gasoline or used as a standalone fuel. Proponents argue that this approach can simultaneously address India’s energy needs and support the struggling sugarcane industry.

India's Sugar-Based Biofuel Strategy 3

However, the reality is far more complex. To produce significant quantities of ethanol, a large amount of sugarcane must be cultivated, harvested, and processed. This could lead to adverse consequences for the environment, agriculture, and food security. Here are a few key concerns:

 

 

Environmental Impact: Expanding sugarcane cultivation to meet the demand for biofuel production can result in deforestation, loss of biodiversity, and increased water usage. The conversion of forests or other ecosystems into sugarcane fields contributes to habitat destruction and reduces carbon sequestration capacity. Additionally, the water-intensive nature of sugarcane cultivation can strain water resources, exacerbating water scarcity issues in certain regions.

 

Agricultural Challenges: Focusing on sugarcane for biofuel production might divert land and resources away from other essential food crops. India is already grappling with food security concerns, and prioritizing biofuel production over food production could exacerbate the situation. Farmers might be incentivized to switch from growing essential food crops to sugarcane, affecting the availability and affordability of staple foods for the population.

India's Sugar-Based Biofuel Strategy 1

Economic Viability: While using sugar for biofuel production might offer short-term benefits for the struggling sugarcane industry, relying heavily on this approach could lead to long-term instability. The global biofuels market is unpredictable, with fluctuating prices and demand. Dependence on sugar-based biofuels might expose India to market volatility, potentially affecting the livelihoods of farmers and the overall economy.

 

Technological Challenges: Scaling up ethanol production from sugarcane requires substantial investment in infrastructure and refining facilities. It also demands technological advancements to optimize the conversion process and ensure efficient utilization of resources. Rapidly transitioning to a large-scale sugar-based biofuel industry may pose logistical and technical challenges that need to be carefully addressed.

Sustainability Considerations: While biofuels have the potential to reduce carbon emissions compared to fossil fuels, their overall sustainability depends on various factors. The entire lifecycle of biofuel production, including land use change, transportation, and processing, needs to be considered. A comprehensive assessment of the carbon footprint and other environmental impacts associated with sugarcane-based biofuels is crucial to determine their actual sustainability benefits.

 

Instead of focusing solely on sugar-based biofuels, India should adopt a more comprehensive and balanced approach to energy transition. This includes diversifying its renewable energy portfolio by exploring other sources such as solar, wind, and hydroelectric power. Investing in research and development for advanced biofuels made from non-food sources could also offer a more sustainable path forward.

 

Furthermore, the Indian government should prioritize policies that encourage energy efficiency, promote public transportation, and support the adoption of electric vehicles. These strategies can have a more immediate and significant impact on reducing greenhouse gas emissions and improving air quality.

 

India’s push to use sugar for fuel, although well-intentioned, needs to be critically evaluated in light of its potential consequences. While sugar-based biofuels may offer some benefits, they should not be viewed as a one-size-fits-all solution to India’s energy and environmental challenges. A holistic approach that considers social, economic, and environmental factors is essential to chart a sustainable and resilient energy future for the country.

  2. Each of the first shareholders and directors of the new company needs to get Director Identification Number (DIN).
  3. At least one of the promoters must have a digital signature. The digital signature is to be purchased from a company in India.
  4. Decide the state in which the registered office of the company will be located. While it is easy for a company to change the registered office within a state, it is cumbersome and expensive to shift from one state to another.
  5. Decide the Authorized Capital of the proposed company.
  6. Decide whether the company will be a private limited company or public limited company.
  7. Decide the main objects of the company.
  8. Select, in order of preference, at least one suitable name up to a maximum of six names, indicative of the main objects of the company.
  9. Ensure that the name does not resemble the name of any other already registered company and also does not violate the provisions of emblems and names (Prevention of Improper Use Act, 1950) by availing the services of checking name availability on the portal.
  10. Apply to the concerned Registrar of Companies (RoC) to ascertain the availability of name in eForm1 A by logging in to the portal. A fee of Rs. 500/- has to be paid alongside and the digital signature of the applicant proposing the company has to be attached in the form. If proposed name is not available, the user has to apply for a fresh name on the same application.
  11. After the name approval the applicant can apply for registration of the new company by filing the required forms (that is Form 1, 18 and 32) within 60 days of name approval.
  12. Arrange for the drafting of the memorandum and articles of association by the solicitors, vetting of the same by RoC and printing of the same.
  13. Arrange for stamping of the memorandum and articles with the appropriate stamp duty.
  14. Get the Memorandum and the Articles signed by at least two subscribers in his/her own hand, his/her father’s name, occupation, address and the number of shares subscribed for and witnessed by at least one person.
  15. Ensure that the Memorandum and Article is dated on a date after the date of stamping.
  16. Login to the portal (www.mca.gov.in) and fill the following forms and attach the mandatory documents listed in the eForms as follows

o Declaration of compliance – Form-1

o Notice of situation of registered office of the company – Form-18.

o Particulars of the Director’s, Manager or Secretary – Form-32.

  • Submit the above-mentioned eForms after attaching the digital signature, pay the requisite filing and registration fees and send the physical copy of Memorandum and Article of Association to the RoC.
  • After processing of the Form is complete and Corporate Identity is generated, obtain Certificate of Incorporation from RoC.

 

A Practicing Company Secretary is the best person to get the above steps completed. The charges may vary from city to city and also based on the reputation of the Practicing Company Secretary. It is advisable to tell the Company Secretary the proposed authorized share capital, the state in which the company is proposed to be incorporated, number of first shareholders / directors and whether the proposed company will be a private limited or public limited. Based on this information, the Company Secretary will be in a position to give an offer for the total costs including fees payable to the Government, stamp duty, other expenses and his / her fees. Many Chartered Accountants also offer services in relation to incorporating a company. However, strictly speaking, this is the job of a company secretary and not of a chartered accountant.

 

PAN for Foreign Citizen Resident Outside India

Getting Permanent Identification Number (PAN) from Income Tax Department of Government of India is necessary before one invests in a company in India or becomes a Director in an Indian company.

Bank Accounts of Foreign Residents in Indian Rupees

There are three types of Rupee denominated accounts that a foreign citizen or entity may open with a bank in India:

A Ordinary Non-Resident Rupee (NRO) Accounts)

B Non-Resident (External) Rupee Accounts (NRE Accounts)

C Non-Resident (Non-repatriable) Rupee Deposit Scheme

 

Ordinary Non-Resident Rupee (NRO) Accounts

NRO account is the simplest form of bank account that any non-resident individual or entity (except from Pakistan or Bangladesh) may open with a bank in India. NRO account does not require approval or permission from Reserve Bank of India or any other authority.

Funds in the NRO account should be used for meeting bona fide expenses and transactions in Indian Rupees. The operations on the accounts do not allow making available foreign exchange to any person resident in India against reimbursement in rupees or in any other manner in India. NRO accounts may be opened / maintained in the form of current, savings, recurring or fixed deposit accounts. The accounts may be held jointly with residents and / or with non-residents.

 

Indian Visa for Directors and Employees

An Indian company can employ foreign citizens in India as well as outside India. No permissions are needed for this. However, the foreign citizen needs an employment visa if he / she intends to reside in India. Types of visa (relevant for business) issued by India are as follows.

 

Business – Up to 5 years – Multiple Documents to prove bonafide purpose (Company’s letter, etc.), proof of financial standing

 

Business Visa

A Business visa may be granted to a foreigner for the following purposes (relevant to this Guide):-

  1. Foreign nationals who wish to visit India to establish industrial/business venture or to explore possibilities to set up industrial/business venture in India.
  2. Foreign nationals coming to India to purchase/sell industrial products or commercial products or consumer durables.
  • Foreign nationals coming to India for technical meetings/discussions, attending Board meetings or general meetings for providing business services support.
  1. Foreign nationals coming to India for recruitment of manpower.
  2. Foreign nationals who are partners in the business and/or functioning as Directors of the company.

Documents/ papers pertaining to proposed business activity such as registration of the company under the Companies Act, proof of registration of the firm with the State Industries Department or the Export Promotion Council concerned or any recognized promotional body in the relevant field of industry or trade etc.

 

 

Local Taxes

Local Taxes are levied by either municipal corporations (in case of cities) or by village panchayats (in case of villages). The freedom of a municipal corporation or village panchayat is limited by the relevant Act passed by State Legislature.

 

Property Tax

Property tax is collected by municipal or village authorities based on the estimated rental value that a property is expected to fetch. Rates of property tax vary greatly from city to city. However, in general, the first step is to estimate the annual rental value. Most cities have elaborate norms for estimation of annual rental value based on the locality, type of construction, usage of property and the floor area of property. Property Tax is a percentage of the estimated annual value and is around 10-20% of the annual rental value. It is customary for the property owner (and not the tenant) to pay the property tax.

 

Water Charges

Strictly speaking, this is not a tax but a charge based on actual consumption. However, in most cities of India water charges are not collected based on water consumption since water metering is not very common. In most cities households are provided a 12 mm pipe connection and a fixed charge per household is levied. This is in the range of about Rs. 100 to Rs. 200 per month. Rates for commercial establishments and industries are much higher and are often based on actual usage.

 

Business Culture

India is a relationships-driven society. Everyone is connected to everyone else with whom one does business. Dealing with strangers is avoided – reasons for this are not too far to seek. With a judicial systems that is slow, expensive and unpredictable, one wants to avoid going to courts. If one is dealing with someone on whom one can exert some pressure, whether it is emotional or from relatives and friends, one is assured of some recourse if matters turn sour.

 

Relationships are built upon mutual trust and respect. In general, Indians prefer to have long-standing personal relationships prior to doing business. It may be a good idea to go through a third party introduction. This gives you immediate credibility. Doing business in India involves spending a lot of time building relationships with all sort of people whether in business or in government or in community or in politics.

 

This is strange for foreigners who come to India from Western Europe or USA. However, this does not surprise anyone who has done business in most of Africa or South America or Asia. It is not unusual for business associates to try to establish relationships that extend to families and friends. This seems strange to western mindset where business and personal life are kept separate. The dividing line in India is either non-existent or very thin.

 

So, if you receive a request from your Indian associate to go to a picnic together with families on the weekend, do not be surprised. Language of contracts in India is often flowery and extremely elaborate. Indian advocates and solicitors sometimes draw up such elaborate and complex contract documents that virtually no one bothers to read through the whole of it. It is not uncommon for parties to a contract to rely on the informal or email or verbal assurances that they have among themselves while the formal contract is seen as no more than a necessary evil that one would rather not touch. Indian entrepreneurs and senior managers often work for more than 10 hours a day and work on weekends too.

 

Calling up business associates on a Sunday or at 8 pm is not considered something extraordinary. India is a hierarchical society. Even in some large cities where due to western influence calling each other by first name has become acceptable, the hierarchical mindset remains deep rooted.

 

As a general rule, calling people by first name is avoidable unless the person is equivalent or lower to you in age and rank. Anyone who is older (or of higher rank) must be addressed respectfully. This is a hierarchical culture, so greet the eldest or most senior person first. The usual form of greeting does not involve shaking hands even though shaking hands is common. Men may shake hands with other men and women may shake hands with other women; however there are seldom handshakes between men and women. Indians consider it rude to say a clear ‘no’. Indians will offer you the response that they think you want to hear.

 

Since they do not like to give negative answers, Indians may give an affirmative answer but be deliberately vague about any specific details. This will require you to look for non-verbal cues, such as a reluctance to commit to an actual time for a meeting or an enthusiastic response. A problem that many foreigners face when dealing with Indian business houses over email etc. is the tendency of Indians to fall silent. Often, when an Indian does not wish to pursue the matter further, the tendency is to fall silent rather than close the matter with a clear ‘no’. Indians enjoy eating together. All food on the table must be shared.

 

The western habit of individual potions being served and each one ordering one’s own food is a strict no-no. A group orders food together. So, before ordering there is quite some discussion to ensure that everyone’s tastes are taken care of and no food is wasted. Often people make compromises only to ensure consensus in the group. For example, if everyone else in the group wants ice cream for dessert, someone who wants coffee is likely to go with the group and have ice cream. If everyone on the table is inclined to have Indian vegetarian food, it will be rude for one individual to order chicken for oneself.

 

Punctuality is the norm as far as business meetings are concerned. However, on social occasions, where large numbers of people are invited, it is customary to be late. It is advisable to ask others who may be invited to the same event whether it will be appropriate to be late. As a general rule, if someone is waiting for you in particular, you must not be late. On the other hand, if you are faceless part of a large crowd, it is fine to be late. Clothing in almost all business situations is conservative though it is not formal. Women, in particular, are advised to avoid dresses that expose legs or other such body parts.

The Magical World of World Cinema: Australian Cinema’s ‘India connection’, many films earned worldwide name

Summary

More recently, Indian-origin writer-director Anita Brar, who has been living in Australia since 1989, has made a documentary called ‘Crossing the Line’, which is being screened at various film festivals around the world. In this, the interviews of the victims of Partition of India have been recorded.

 

History of Australian Film Industry

A film director comes to India, he watches a Hindi film of Bollywood and is shocked. He goes to his home country and makes a film inspired by the dance and songs of the Indian film and wins an Oscar for this film. The name of the film is ‘Moulin Rouge’ and the director is Baz Luhrmann. Baz Luhrmann comes from Australia. Today we are talking about the cinema history of Australia.

 

The film began to be shown in Australia at the very beginning of cinema. In the last decade of the nineteenth century, films were being shown there with the help of the Edison Kinetoscope. In 1894, James McMahon opened the first Kinetoscope parlor in Sydney. It was created by converting a shop. Customers could watch the film on the machine for a shilling. Only one person was allowed to watch movies at a time. But the enthusiasm of the audience was worth watching.

 

According to a source 22,000 people watched the film in the first five weeks, another source said it attracted 25,000 people in the first month. After Sydney, Kinetoscope roamed Australia for a year and showed the film to the public. When he returned to Sydney in 1896, he did not have any new films, and in the meantime the film was being shown on projectors, so the market for the kinetoscope collapsed.

 

It is believed that on 22 August 1896, the magician Carl Hertz did a film project in Australia for money. He did this at the Harry Records Melbourne Opera House. Today this place is known as Tivoli Theater. That day the film was shown under a variety show.

 

The first feature film in Australia, The Story of the Kelly Gang, was made in 1906. In 1913, the government there appointed Burt Ivy to capture Australia’s life, landscape, industry, etc. on camera. In 1954, the film division there made a feature length film called ‘The Queen in Australia’ which was the first color film produced by the fund there. The Women’s Film Unit was established in Australia in 1984. Under this, Jane Campion created ‘After Hours’ in the same year.

 

‘The Melbourne Cup’ and ‘Queen Victoria’s Jubilee’ were the first short films made in Australia for exhibition. From 1898, the Limelight Department of the Salvation Army (a Christian religious organization) also started making short films. These films, equipped with songs, instrument singles and discourses, were shown to the public for their religious propaganda and were used for religious propaganda. Along with this, donations were raised by them, which were helpful in the social work of the Salvation Army.

Australian film industry

By 1900, the film industry had already been established in Australia. At that time Australia was a part of the British Empire. Most producers in Europe set up production facilities in Australia. Movies soon became a part of Australian life, a necessity and a necessity for low-cost entertainment. Today Australian cinema is known for its representation of race, tribal status, sexuality, diaspora.

 

More recently, Indian-origin writer-director Anita Brar, who has been living in Australia since 1989, has made a documentary called ‘Crossing the Line’, which is being screened at various film festivals around the world. In this the interviews of the victims of Partition of India have been recorded. These are senior citizens of India, Pakistan, Bangladesh living in Australia, who ran for their lives at the time of partition and survived.

 

A well-known film ‘Crocodile Dundee’ was made in Australia in 1986. In this 97-minute adventure-comedy film, an American reporter travels to Australia to visit an eccentric crocodile hunter and then invites him to New York. Directed by Peter Feiman, the film starred Paul Hogan, Linda Kozlowski, etc., but made a splash in the Australian film world with the 1993 film The Piano, directed by Jane Campion. This 121-minute film is analyzed and studied in institutions around the world.

 

The film, starring Holly Hunter, Harvey Keitel, Sam Neill and Anna Paquin, gave feminism a point of discussion. It won three Oscar awards.

 

There has been a lot of experimentation in films in Australia, especially with regard to style and technique. Above we have come to see the talk of ‘Moulin Rouge’. Another experiment was done in 2006 by George Miller. He made the computer-animated jukebox musical comedy film Happy Feet. The Emperor Penguin finds his companion singing. But a penguin is born in this world, which cannot sing, but has a special feature that it can tap dance with pleasure. Don’t confuse it with the ‘March of the Penguins’ made in 2005. Both are very different films.

 

Amitabh Bachchan, best known for his voice as the narrator in the Indian version of ‘March of the Penguins’, has given vocals. But we are talking about the film ‘Happy Feet’ made in Australia. Nicole Kidman has also lent her voice to it along with many others.

 

Before this, in 2002, a film was made in Australia, seeing which the audience is forced to contemplate. The film is a biopic of less than an hour duration. The film is based on the subject of Australia of 1931 and the inhuman law applicable there. Where in the name of goodness the Lord keeps the tribal children of this country away from their families and works to make them slaves / servants in the name of education. Children or rather these girls are not completely tribal, they have mixed white blood, but since their white father does not take responsibility for them, they live with their mother, so they are still attached to their civilization-culture .

 

In this film by director Philip Noyes, the administration does the work of destroying this civilization-culture and childhood in a planned manner. In this, non-professional people have acted and acted amazingly.

 

After the end of the film, facts and figures related to this lost generation emerge on the screen. If you haven’t seen it yet, then definitely watch the movie ‘Rabbit-Proof Fence’. ‘Chopper’, ‘Shine’, ‘Lion’, ‘I’m a Mother’, ‘Red Dog’, ‘Careful, He Might Here You’ are some other notable films from Australia that should be watched. The film making process continues in Australia.
