A Day at the RTO
BW Businessworld
|June 28, 2025
RECENTLY, A FRIEND of mine had to get his driving licence renewed and went to one of the Regional Transport Offices (RTOS) in the capital.
What he witnessed there during an hour spent for the process, made me squirm about how mindlessly licences are being renewed without the mandatory 'medical check-up' and how this is happening blatantly just outside the office of the authority. Also, the fact that the facility is available to all and is not only for the select few who may have "contacts" in the establishment.
SHADY SHACKS
As you alight from the car, there are around 15-20 shacks, each with a table, computer, a couple of chairs and one or two guys at each, with proper sign boards in front -much like the shacks of small-time lawyers in the Tees Hazari Courts complex or any Tehsil office for typing out your petitions or sale-deeds and also helping in getting these processed.

BUDGET BETS ON SPEED, STEEL & STRATEGIC DEPTH
NIRMALA Sitharaman's ninth Budget suggests that India believes the long taper is over and that a cautious takeoff has begun. For much of the past decade, criticism of India’s economic management followed a familiar script: a government that spoke the language of transformation but governed with the instincts of a caretaker, balancing a vast electorate's demands against the imperatives of long-term industrial growth.

WHY DATA CENTRES AREN'T TECH
THE UNION Budget 2026-27 made a remarkable announcement: tax holidays extending until 2047 for foreign companies providing cloud services through Indian data centres. This 23-year incentive window, coupled with exemptions from Minimum Alternate Tax and a favourable 15 per cent safe harbour margin for related entities, represents one of the most generous policy packages in recent memory. The sheer scale of these incentives prompts a fundamental question: what exactly is the government subsidising?

Central Bank Decides to Give Private Sector Driven Growth a Chance
IN ITS LATEST bi-monthly monetary policy review, the Monetary Policy Committee (MPC) of the Reserve Bank of India has once again chosen calm over drama, keeping the repurchase rate — better known as the repo rate — unchanged at 5.25 per cent. The decision, widely anticipated, suggests that the central bank is in no hurry to either slam the brakes or hit the accelerator as the economy navigates mixed global cues and a steady domestic demand.
