    Yes, but here I am talking about the multiple choice questions where 4 statements are given and we have to choose correct statements. Although no one can and should escape from any type of the questions in UPSC , If someone do this then UPSC also escapes that person from its merit list. hahaha

    An IDR is a receipt, declaring ownership of shares of a foreign company. These receipts can be listed in India and traded in rupees.
    * The IDRs are denominated in Indian currency and are issued by a domestic depository and the underlying equity shares are secured with an overseas custodian.
    * An Indian investor pays in Indian rupees for the IDR whereas a shareholder in the issuer’s home country pays in home currency.

    Hi <3 KH <3 (Champion πŸ™‚ – if you can explain the meaning of ur name )

    Indian depository receipt is a derivative instrument by which a foreign investor can invest in Indian stock market.

    What happens is the foreign investor ( say from America ) wants to invest in India. It will go to Indian domestic depository (Custodian of securities registered by SEBI). Indian depository buys the shares of the foreign firm and then issues Indian Rupees denominated depository receipts to Indian people.

    So, it’s basically remedy that is prescribed, not punishment. Aim is not to punish the losing side for not complying with the ruling, but to make that side comply with the rule by retaliation. Retaliation can be hiking import duties for the goods coming from the non-complying members in the same sector/ or related sector so as to block imports. Losing side will be given reasonable time for implementing the required changes, after which such retaliation will be authorised by Dispute settlement body.

    Excerpt from the link :

    If after 20 days, no satisfactory compensation is agreed, the complaining side may ask the Dispute Settlement Body for permission to retaliate (to β€œsuspend concessions or other obligations”). This is intended to be temporary , to encourage the other country to comply. It could for example take the form of blocking imports by raising import duties on products from the other country above agreed limits to levels so high that the imports are too expensive to sell β€” within certain limits. The Dispute Settlement Body must authorize this within 30 days after the β€œreasonable period of time” expires unless there is a consensus against the request.

    Revenue Receipts – “* Tax Revenue & Non-Tax Revenue”
    * Neither creates liability nor cause any reduction in asset of govt (both condition should be satisfied)
    * For eg. Money generated through sales of some shares of govt does not come under revenue receipts since this sale reduce asset of government. Similarly, loan taken by govt also doesn’t come under this since it creates liability”
    “* Tax Revenue consists of Direct and In-Direct Tax
    * Non-Tax Revenue consists of Interest, Profit and Dividend, Fees, Fines & Penalities, Escheats, Gifts & Grants, Special Assessment”

    The Dispute Settlement Body (DSB)-
    The General Council discharges its responsibilities under the DSU through the DSB (Article IV:3 of the WTO Agreement). Like the General Council, the DSB is composed of representatives of all WTO Members. These are governmental representatives, in most cases diplomatic delegates who reside in Geneva (where the WTO is based) and who belong to either the trade or the foreign affairs ministry of the WTO Member they represent. As civil servants, they receive instructions from their capitals on the positions to take and the statements to make in the DSB. As such, the DSB is a political body.

    The DSB is responsible for administering the DSU, i.e. for overseeing the entire dispute settlement process.
    NOTE-Dispute Settlement Understanding (DSU): The Dispute Settlement Understanding is a legal text containing the rules for dispute settlement in the WTO

    Non plan,plan toh aane nahi wala,just in case..toh Five year plan wale saare planned expenditure rehte and baki,non planned.

    Revenue and capital me logic lagana thoda.
    Revenue exp means,na koi liablity lag rahi na koi asset kum zyada ho raha. Ex in this ques Interest payment. Usko karna hi hai,but usse kuch kum zyada nahi ho raha asset ya liablity side.
    Capital exp means opposite,liablity ya asset kum zyada hona. Loan wapas milega means apna asset kum hua,nahi toh int payment milta rehta.
    Loan lenge means liablity create hui,ab int dena padega.
    Ok?
