Highlights of Business Today December 8, 2013: The telecom sector has faced some real tough times in the months gone by. However, India\'s telecom companies are now looking at the future with hope and Trai Chairman Rahul Khullar with gratitude. India\'s leading business magazine, Business Today, tells you why in the cover feature of its latest issue. It\'s that time of the year again when BT, with its partner and consultancy firm KPMG India, brings out the annual listing of the Best Banks in India. The special coverage this year begins with a feature on HDFC Bank, which is back on the top after five years. Throughout the package, readers will see how India\'s banking sector, despite facing multiple challenges, braved the headwinds. Government data shows that India\'s current account deficit (CAD) is under control. A big reason in the success is the increase in import duty on gold imports. The yellow metal\'s imports have shrunk nearly one-third in the July-September quarter from a year ago. But jewellery demand in India has not abated and gold smuggling is back at its strongest in nearly three decades. The latest issue of Business Today brings you the untold story of how gold is smuggled into Kerala, a state where more gold is bought than any other. There are many more features that you would enjoy reading: how the advertisers and broadcaster made the most of Sachin Tendulkar\'s farewell series; the reason behind a Honda scooter outselling Hero\'s best-seller motorcyle; how the Mars mission provides a fillip to Indian companies and more.
