INX Media case: P Chidambaram to be produced in court today on expiry of judicial custody Former finance minister P Chidambaram will be produced in the court today as his judicial custody to the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) ends today. Moreover, Chidambaram on Tuesday moved an application in a Delhi court seeking home-cooked food in Tihar Jail where he is lodged in connection with the INX Media case. The court is slated to hear the plea on 3 October. The CBI had arrested Chidambaram on 21 August following which he was sent to judicial custody till 3 October by the court. While CBI is probing the corruption allegations, the Enforcement Directorate (ED) is looking into money laundering allegations against him in the case. Chidambaram is facing probe for alleged irregularities in the Foreign Investment Promotion Board (FIPB) clearance given to INX Media to the tune of Rs 305 crore in 2007 when he was the Union finance minister. India vs South Africa: India look to build on strong start Rohit Sharma scored a century in his Test debut as an opener as India reached 202-0 at stumps with rain preventing any play in the final session on Day 1 of the first Test against South Africa on Wednesday. Sharma was unbeaten on 115 — his fourth Test century — with 12 fours and five sixes when bad light and thunder stopped play five minutes before tea, with heavy rain shortly afterwards. He was assisted by Mayank Agarwal, who scored 84 runs with 11 fours and two sixes. India will hope to build on their strong start to the Test match on the second day, but with overcast skies predicted on Thursday, they might be made to wait. Bharat-22 ETF’s 4th tranche to open today; govt expects to raise Rs 8,000 cr The government will launch the fourth instalment of Bharat-22 Exchange Traded Fund (ETF) today (Thursday), which is expected to help the exchequer garner up to Rs 8,000 crore from investors. The issue will open for anchor investors today and for other institutional and retail investors, the next day, according to the scheme information document filed by ICICI Prudential Mutual Fund, which manages Bharat-22 ETF. The investors would get a 3 percent discount over the issue price. “The offer is likely to have a base issue size of Rs 2,000 crore, with a greenshoe option to retain another Rs 6,000 crore, taking the total amount to Rs 8,000 crore,” a source privy to the development said. The decision has been taken after receiving a robust response for earlier stake sale by the government in the product. The government has so far raised around Rs 35,900 crore through Bharat-22 ETF—Rs 14,500 crore was garnered in November 2017, another Rs 8,400 crore was mopped up in June 2018 and Rs 13,000 crore in February this year. Proceeds from the ETF will help the government meet its disinvestment target of Rs 1.05 lakh crore for the current financial year.
