    ​

    So the deadline has been extended. I think this means

    1. More people will apply so my hopes of getting those 30s and 40s look unlikely
    2. How does this end is it till the 11th that this goes on or does the below point mean it closes earlier

    3. Can I wait for like 3-4 days see the application and then make a reasonable call to apply 20s or 30s?

    (I don’t have a lot of money and thus don’t want it all to be stuck)

  • Finance Minister Optimistic About 6% Economic Growth and Library Society’s Challenges Addressed at Annual Meeting

    Finance Minister Optimistic About 6% Economic Growth and Library Society’s Challenges Addressed at Annual Meeting


    Finance Minister Dr. Prakash Sharan Mahat expressed optimism about achieving a 6% economic growth rate, attributing it to the gradual recovery of the country’s economy. Speaking at the 20th annual general meeting of the Kathmandu Valley Public Library Society at Bhrikutimandap, Minister Mahat highlighted positive signs such as the increasing number of tourists, rising remittances, growing share prices, enhanced revenue, and overall economic activities.

    Minister Mahat underscored the successful resolution of budget anomalies through the implementation of a budget allocation system based on guaranteed resources in multi-year projects. He also noted a decline in bank interest rates, signaling a positive economic trend. The Finance Minister credited the improvement in the budget system for curbing the tendency to exceed budget allocations outlined in the budget Red Book.

    Dr. Narayan Khadka, the President of the Society, emphasized the significance of prioritizing libraries as hubs of knowledge, information, and national history. However, he expressed concerns about reduced government funding, the absence of a dedicated land plot for the library building, and increased rent imposed by the Social Welfare Council.

    During the event, Mahesh Agrawal and Tirtha Raj Onta were honored by the Society. The library, established in 2003, attracts more than 30,000 visitors annually and has 2,400 annual members. The Society has managed the library since 2005, amassing 37,614 donated books and acquiring 4,351 books through purchases.

    In a collaborative effort, Prof. Dr. Bhagawat Dhakal, Chief of Balmeeki Vidyapeeth, proposed allocating land to jointly construct the library building, addressing the budget constraints faced by the Vidyapeeth.

    A Parliamentary Committee implements proactive measures to rectify irregularities in IPO premiums, lock-in periods, and enhance transparency in the stock market


    In a recent parliamentary committee meeting, concerns were raised about life insurance companies issuing IPO shares at premium prices, potentially above standard values. Allegations of improper premium approvals prompted an investigation into possible misconduct and misuse of authority. Here are the key directives issued by the committee after discussions with relevant authorities:

    1. The absence of Mr. Ramesh Kumar Hamal, Chairman of the Securities Board of Nepal, in the meeting raised concerns. The committee instructs the Commission for Investigation of Abuse Of Authority to investigate the financial transactions and practices of the Chairman within 30 days.
    2. The committee emphasizes transparency in regulations governing share issuance by companies. Immediate steps include the publication of regulations, amendments in the Nepal Gazette, and measures to prevent undue influence on investors.
    3. The committee directs the Securities Board of Nepal (SEBON) to adopt the Book Building process to address concerns about companies issuing IPOs at premium prices.
    4. The committee urges the Nepal Insurance Authority to rectify conflicts between the Insurance Act and the Banking and Financial Institutions Act regarding share prices for insurance companies.
    5. The committee suggests creating new laws to regulate the Company Registrar effectively and calls for government action.
    6. Recognizing challenges with the three-year lock-in period for promoter shareholders in hydropower projects, the committee instructs SEBON to intervene strategically to manage one-third of shares held by promoters.
    7. The committee urges the Ministry of Finance, SEBON, and the Nepal Insurance Authority to expand the scope of the Nepalese stock market, including instruments like debentures, bonds, and green bonds.
    8. The committee directs the Ministry of Finance, the Company Registrar’s Office, and SEBON to initiate the process for large companies with over Rs. 5 Arba in capital to become public companies within a year.
    9. The committee investigates whether companies issuing premium shares in the past three years set reasonable prices and instructs the Commission for Investigation of Abuse Of Authority to take legal action if wrongdoing is found.
    10. To address issues with life insurance premiums, the committee suggests imposing a minimal handling fee on surrendered policies and directs the Nepal Insurance Authority to submit information within three months.
    11. The committee announces that the next meeting will be scheduled after receiving relevant information on the outlined directives.
