Petrol pump owners planning for nationwide strike from April 23, 2012
Petrol pump owners are planning to go for a countrywide strike from April 23. initially petrol pump dealers were demanding commission of Rs 393/kilolitre petrol and the ministry of Petroleum and Natural Gas has increased the price to Rs 281/kl.
The Federation of All India Petroleum Traders were not happy with this small increase in commission and this was very low compared to the recommendations given by the Apoorva chandra committee, appointed by the ministry. So the Petrol traders association wrote a letter to Union Minister of Petroleum and Natural Gas, Jaipal Reddy, stating that the failure in implementing the commission increase made them to go to extreme step of strike. There are 3300 petrol pumps are part of this Federation of All India Petroleum Traders (FAPT) so all these petrol pumps in india will be participating in the strike from April 23.
If this happens people would be getting affected adversely. I would suggest people to take a precautionary measure such as filing the tank full on April 22nd may help you up to certain extent.

This can be availed by the existing home loan customers by paying 1% of the outstanding amount. This would mainly to help all borrowers whose home loans interest is as high as 14.75% at present. At present the floating rate of SBI bank is linked to the base rate of 10%. Its current floating rates vary from 10.5% for loan amount up to Rs 30 lakh, 10.75% for between Rs 30 to 75 lakh, and 11% for loans above Rs 75 lakh.

Anybody can reprice their loan by paying a 1 per cent of their outstanding as an upfront fee," managing director and chief financial officer of the bank, Diwakar Gupta, told Press.

UB Distributors helping Kingfisher airlines with Rs 1000 Crore
As a last option to save Kingfisher airlines from the trouble UB Distributors is giving helping hand with Rs 1000 crore. This will fulfill the banks request on the existing loans which will make the way clear to allocate fresh funds to help kingfisher. Even this announcement about the investment is still under discussion and will be finalized in another 48 hours. Suppose if these funds coming into Kingfisher Airlines means it will be coming as "associate" of UB Group. Again this will be a debt or they have to take equivalent equity. Apart from this some of the Kingfisher bank accounts are not frozen, so they can clear the income tax, service tax dues. Initially it agreed to pay only Rs 10 crore and now they said they can pay Rs 44 crore in a day or two
The banks have a total exposure of over Rs 7,000 crore, of which Rs 4,000 crore is in the form of term loans. So it will be very difficult for kingfisher airlines to some out of this issue completely. Because if they are getting fresh funds from bankers, will they be able to repay it?
