<p style="text-align:justify">According to the STC, it is bearing the huge loss as salt is being sold at a lower price than its imported price. &quot;As the loss is increasing yearly, STC has proposed for raising the salt price by Rs 7 per packet (one kg),&quot; said Surya Prasad Shrestha, Joint Secretary and Spokesperson of the Ministry of Supplies.</p>

<p style="text-align:justify">If the government approves the proposed price, the salt will cost Rs 25 per packet in the domestic market. It costs Rs. 18 in the market now.</p>

<p style="text-align:justify">According to the STC, the per-packet of salt costs Rs 21 at present while importing from India. However, the STC sells the salt at Rs 16.50 per packet to dealers resulting in a loss of Rs 5 per packet.</p>

<p style="text-align:justify">&quot;Even though salt comes with an increased price from India, the government does not approve raise in salt price which has caused huge loss to STC,&quot; said Kumar Rajbhandari, General Manager of the Salt Trading Ltd. &quot;We proposed an increase in price of &#39;Aayo Nun&#39;( iodized&nbsp; salt) three years back, but the government kept mum about the matter.&quot;</p>

<p style="text-align:justify">STC has clarified that if the government provides a grant equivalent to the loss of Rs 350 million, the proposed raise in salt price will be withdrawn. According to a source, STC will make a profit of Rs 1.50 if it increases the price at the moment. However, the corporation might close down due to accumulated loss if the price remains the same.</p>

<p style="text-align:justify">In order to raise the salt price, Central Monitoring Committee under the Chairmanship of Joint Secretary of the Supply Ministry has to take a decision. According to Rajbhandari, a team of the Ministry is analyzing the issue. The STC transacts salt amounting to Rs. 2 billion annually.</p>

<p style="text-align:justify">Ministry Spokesperson Shrestha says that a serious study is needed before rising rice as salt is an essential commodity.</p>

Jha suggested that NT that the company take benefit from this kind of regulation and move ahead for a strong competition.</p>

<p style="text-align: justify;">NT is providing fix-line, mobile, VSAT, internet and other value added services. Likewise, the company has also recently started 4G service for the first time in the country.</p>

<p>They were speaking at a programme entitled &#39;Finance Your Dream&#39; organised here on February 3 by the Himalayan Climate Initiative (HCI), a non-profit organisation that runs social innovation and business incubation hubs in Nepalgunj and Kathmandu.</p>

<p>At the programme, Nirvana Chaudhary shared his thoughts on young entrepreneur&#39;s challenges in access of finance. Along with that, he also shared about CG&#39;s commitment to support young startups with information technology bent.</p>

<p>&quot;Being an entrepreneur, we feel more responsible towards improving the entrepreneurial eco-system, so, we are making a large chunk of money available for such young entrepreneurs,&quot; he said.</p>

<p>Likewise, Anand Bagaria spoke about the importance of incubation hubs which create an environment where entrepreneurship ideas are brought into the business world.</p>

<p>&quot;The core idea for a business startup can come both ways. We generally think it comes from the entrepreneur and then get supported by investors. However, many a times, it also comes from investors and picked up by the young entrepreneurial talents,&quot; he added.</p>

<p>Prashant Singh, Founder of HCI, while opening the event said, &quot;The biggest social imperative of the day in Nepal is to create a large number of employment opportunities for the country&#39;s youth that are leaving us for abroad. It is possible only through creating an enabling atmosphere for setting up businesses that create most employments.&quot;</p>

<p>The programme was participated in by around 400 young entrepreneurs. The organizers of the programme shared that the event expected to attract many entrepreneurial ideas that would be further shaped at HCI incubation hubs.&nbsp;</p>

The Financial Sector Development Strategy 2073/74 announced by Finance Ministry mentioned about the fact. The ministry announced the strategy in a bid to address the problems related with capital market.</p>

<p style="text-align: justify;">The government is adapting sectorial diversification promotion strategy to promote currently uniform and sluggishly developed capital market. It is also formulating improved law and regulatory practices for merchandise market. The strategy also mentions of easing investment from domestic and international institutional investors in Nepali securities market.</p>

<p style="text-align: justify;">In a due process, the government will restructure Nepal Stock Exchange (NEPSE), encourage good governance in NEPSE and listed companies and improve legal and regulatory structure for CDS and clearing. The government, citing lack of good governance and management in NEPSE and ineffective supervision of SEBON on NEPSE and CDS due to their capital structure, has formulated the policies. It is directed toward minimising or extracting government ownership in NEPSE and CDS.</p>

<p style="text-align: justify;">Similarly, the government is rolling out the strategy of expanding securities traders&#39; service sector, encourage participations of general people and improve regulatory and supervisory practices of capital market. The ministry said that the Nepali capital market is still trapped in its initial phase.</p>

<p style="text-align: justify;">After the implementation of the policy, daily transaction amount of securities market is expected to reach Rs 2 billion. Similarly, investors with D-mat account will be increased to 500,000. Moreover, participations from all sectors of the economy in the capital market will be mechanised.&nbsp;&nbsp;</p>

			'content' => '<p style="text-align:justify">February 6: The Salt Trading Corporation (STC) has proposed to the government for increasing the price of salt. STC has proposed for a price rise citing that the corporation is bearing a loss of Rs 350 million annually on its sale of salt.</p>

<p style="text-align:justify">According to the STC, it is bearing the huge loss as salt is being sold at a lower price than its imported price. &quot;As the loss is increasing yearly, STC has proposed for raising the salt price by Rs 7 per packet (one kg),&quot; said Surya Prasad Shrestha, Joint Secretary and Spokesperson of the Ministry of Supplies.</p>

<p style="text-align:justify">If the government approves the proposed price, the salt will cost Rs 25 per packet in the domestic market. It costs Rs. 18 in the market now.</p>

<p style="text-align:justify">According to the STC, the per-packet of salt costs Rs 21 at present while importing from India. However, the STC sells the salt at Rs 16.50 per packet to dealers resulting in a loss of Rs 5 per packet.</p>

<p style="text-align:justify">&quot;Even though salt comes with an increased price from India, the government does not approve raise in salt price which has caused huge loss to STC,&quot; said Kumar Rajbhandari, General Manager of the Salt Trading Ltd. &quot;We proposed an increase in price of &#39;Aayo Nun&#39;( iodized&nbsp; salt) three years back, but the government kept mum about the matter.&quot;</p>

<p style="text-align:justify">STC has clarified that if the government provides a grant equivalent to the loss of Rs 350 million, the proposed raise in salt price will be withdrawn. According to a source, STC will make a profit of Rs 1.50 if it increases the price at the moment. However, the corporation might close down due to accumulated loss if the price remains the same.</p>

<p style="text-align:justify">In order to raise the salt price, Central Monitoring Committee under the Chairmanship of Joint Secretary of the Supply Ministry has to take a decision. According to Rajbhandari, a team of the Ministry is analyzing the issue. The STC transacts salt amounting to Rs. 2 billion annually.</p>

<p style="text-align:justify">Ministry Spokesperson Shrestha says that a serious study is needed before rising rice as salt is an essential commodity.</p>

The capital centred share broker companies are gradually being attracted to outside valley. As a result, the number of share brokers in Biratnagar has increased in recent time.</p>

<p style="text-align: justify;">After the securities board of Nepal (SEBON) gave approval to share brokers to expand their remote working station (RWS), the broker companies are prioritising expansion of their branches in Biratnagar. Among the total share broker companies, 41 companies have obtained approval to operate RWS outside the capital.</p>

<p style="text-align: justify;">In Biratnagar, Broker no 50 &#39;crystal Kanchenjunga Securities&#39;, Broker no 28 &#39;Srikrishna Securities&#39; and Broker no 10 &#39;Pragyan Securities&#39; are preparing to start their branches. Previously, Agrawal Securities and Nepal Investment and Securities Trading have been giving their services in the area.</p>

<p style="text-align: justify;">Earlier, when share broker companies were centralised in Kathmandu, investors from outside valley were compelled to visit the capital during each share transaction which was more of the hassles to the investors. However, after the decentralisation of share broker companies, increase in investment along with end of dominant practices of limited big investors is expected in the domestic share market.&nbsp;</p>

<p>They were speaking at a programme entitled &#39;Finance Your Dream&#39; organised here on February 3 by the Himalayan Climate Initiative (HCI), a non-profit organisation that runs social innovation and business incubation hubs in Nepalgunj and Kathmandu.</p>

<p>At the programme, Nirvana Chaudhary shared his thoughts on young entrepreneur&#39;s challenges in access of finance. Along with that, he also shared about CG&#39;s commitment to support young startups with information technology bent.</p>

<p>&quot;Being an entrepreneur, we feel more responsible towards improving the entrepreneurial eco-system, so, we are making a large chunk of money available for such young entrepreneurs,&quot; he said.</p>

<p>Likewise, Anand Bagaria spoke about the importance of incubation hubs which create an environment where entrepreneurship ideas are brought into the business world.</p>

<p>&quot;The core idea for a business startup can come both ways. We generally think it comes from the entrepreneur and then get supported by investors. However, many a times, it also comes from investors and picked up by the young entrepreneurial talents,&quot; he added.</p>

<p>Prashant Singh, Founder of HCI, while opening the event said, &quot;The biggest social imperative of the day in Nepal is to create a large number of employment opportunities for the country&#39;s youth that are leaving us for abroad. It is possible only through creating an enabling atmosphere for setting up businesses that create most employments.&quot;</p>

<p>The programme was participated in by around 400 young entrepreneurs. The organizers of the programme shared that the event expected to attract many entrepreneurial ideas that would be further shaped at HCI incubation hubs.&nbsp;</p>

The Financial Sector Development Strategy 2073/74 announced by Finance Ministry mentioned about the fact. The ministry announced the strategy in a bid to address the problems related with capital market.</p>

<p style="text-align: justify;">The government is adapting sectorial diversification promotion strategy to promote currently uniform and sluggishly developed capital market. It is also formulating improved law and regulatory practices for merchandise market. The strategy also mentions of easing investment from domestic and international institutional investors in Nepali securities market.</p>

<p style="text-align: justify;">In a due process, the government will restructure Nepal Stock Exchange (NEPSE), encourage good governance in NEPSE and listed companies and improve legal and regulatory structure for CDS and clearing. The government, citing lack of good governance and management in NEPSE and ineffective supervision of SEBON on NEPSE and CDS due to their capital structure, has formulated the policies. It is directed toward minimising or extracting government ownership in NEPSE and CDS.</p>

<p style="text-align: justify;">Similarly, the government is rolling out the strategy of expanding securities traders&#39; service sector, encourage participations of general people and improve regulatory and supervisory practices of capital market. The ministry said that the Nepali capital market is still trapped in its initial phase.</p>

<p style="text-align: justify;">After the implementation of the policy, daily transaction amount of securities market is expected to reach Rs 2 billion. Similarly, investors with D-mat account will be increased to 500,000. Moreover, participations from all sectors of the economy in the capital market will be mechanised.&nbsp;&nbsp;</p>

<p style="text-align:justify">According to the STC, it is bearing the huge loss as salt is being sold at a lower price than its imported price. &quot;As the loss is increasing yearly, STC has proposed for raising the salt price by Rs 7 per packet (one kg),&quot; said Surya Prasad Shrestha, Joint Secretary and Spokesperson of the Ministry of Supplies.</p>

<p style="text-align:justify">If the government approves the proposed price, the salt will cost Rs 25 per packet in the domestic market. It costs Rs. 18 in the market now.</p>

<p style="text-align:justify">According to the STC, the per-packet of salt costs Rs 21 at present while importing from India. However, the STC sells the salt at Rs 16.50 per packet to dealers resulting in a loss of Rs 5 per packet.</p>

<p style="text-align:justify">&quot;Even though salt comes with an increased price from India, the government does not approve raise in salt price which has caused huge loss to STC,&quot; said Kumar Rajbhandari, General Manager of the Salt Trading Ltd. &quot;We proposed an increase in price of &#39;Aayo Nun&#39;( iodized&nbsp; salt) three years back, but the government kept mum about the matter.&quot;</p>

<p style="text-align:justify">STC has clarified that if the government provides a grant equivalent to the loss of Rs 350 million, the proposed raise in salt price will be withdrawn. According to a source, STC will make a profit of Rs 1.50 if it increases the price at the moment. However, the corporation might close down due to accumulated loss if the price remains the same.</p>

<p style="text-align:justify">In order to raise the salt price, Central Monitoring Committee under the Chairmanship of Joint Secretary of the Supply Ministry has to take a decision. According to Rajbhandari, a team of the Ministry is analyzing the issue. The STC transacts salt amounting to Rs. 2 billion annually.</p>

<p style="text-align:justify">Ministry Spokesperson Shrestha says that a serious study is needed before rising rice as salt is an essential commodity.</p>

<p style="text-align: justify;">Earlier, when share broker companies were centralised in Kathmandu, investors from outside valley were compelled to visit the capital during each share transaction which was more of the hassles to the investors.

<p>They were speaking at a programme entitled &#39;Finance Your Dream&#39; organised here on February 3 by the Himalayan Climate Initiative (HCI), a non-profit organisation that runs social innovation and business incubation hubs in Nepalgunj and Kathmandu.</p>

<p>At the programme, Nirvana Chaudhary shared his thoughts on young entrepreneur&#39;s challenges in access of finance. Along with that, he also shared about CG&#39;s commitment to support young startups with information technology bent.</p>

<p>&quot;Being an entrepreneur, we feel more responsible towards improving the entrepreneurial eco-system, so, we are making a large chunk of money available for such young entrepreneurs,&quot; he said.</p>

<p>Likewise, Anand Bagaria spoke about the importance of incubation hubs which create an environment where entrepreneurship ideas are brought into the business world.</p>

<p>&quot;The core idea for a business startup can come both ways. We generally think it comes from the entrepreneur and then get supported by investors. However, many a times, it also comes from investors and picked up by the young entrepreneurial talents,&quot; he added.</p>

<p>Prashant Singh, Founder of HCI, while opening the event said, &quot;The biggest social imperative of the day in Nepal is to create a large number of employment opportunities for the country&#39;s youth that are leaving us for abroad. It is possible only through creating an enabling atmosphere for setting up businesses that create most employments.&quot;</p>

<p>The programme was participated in by around 400 young entrepreneurs. The organizers of the programme shared that the event expected to attract many entrepreneurial ideas that would be further shaped at HCI incubation hubs.&nbsp;</p>

The Financial Sector Development Strategy 2073/74 announced by Finance Ministry mentioned about the fact. The ministry announced the strategy in a bid to address the problems related with capital market.</p>

<p style="text-align: justify;">The government is adapting sectorial diversification promotion strategy to promote currently uniform and sluggishly developed capital market. It is also formulating improved law and regulatory practices for merchandise market. The strategy also mentions of easing investment from domestic and international institutional investors in Nepali securities market.</p>

<p style="text-align: justify;">In a due process, the government will restructure Nepal Stock Exchange (NEPSE), encourage good governance in NEPSE and listed companies and improve legal and regulatory structure for CDS and clearing. The government, citing lack of good governance and management in NEPSE and ineffective supervision of SEBON on NEPSE and CDS due to their capital structure, has formulated the policies. It is directed toward minimising or extracting government ownership in NEPSE and CDS.</p>

<p style="text-align: justify;">Similarly, the government is rolling out the strategy of expanding securities traders&#39; service sector, encourage participations of general people and improve regulatory and supervisory practices of capital market. The ministry said that the Nepali capital market is still trapped in its initial phase.</p>

<p style="text-align: justify;">After the implementation of the policy, daily transaction amount of securities market is expected to reach Rs 2 billion. Similarly, investors with D-mat account will be increased to 500,000. Moreover, participations from all sectors of the economy in the capital market will be mechanised.&nbsp;&nbsp;</p>

<p style="text-align:justify">According to the STC, it is bearing the huge loss as salt is being sold at a lower price than its imported price. &quot;As the loss is increasing yearly, STC has proposed for raising the salt price by Rs 7 per packet (one kg),&quot; said Surya Prasad Shrestha, Joint Secretary and Spokesperson of the Ministry of Supplies.</p>

<p style="text-align:justify">If the government approves the proposed price, the salt will cost Rs 25 per packet in the domestic market. It costs Rs. 18 in the market now.</p>

<p style="text-align:justify">According to the STC, the per-packet of salt costs Rs 21 at present while importing from India. However, the STC sells the salt at Rs 16.50 per packet to dealers resulting in a loss of Rs 5 per packet.</p>

<p style="text-align:justify">&quot;Even though salt comes with an increased price from India, the government does not approve raise in salt price which has caused huge loss to STC,&quot; said Kumar Rajbhandari, General Manager of the Salt Trading Ltd. &quot;We proposed an increase in price of &#39;Aayo Nun&#39;( iodized&nbsp; salt) three years back, but the government kept mum about the matter.&quot;</p>

<p style="text-align:justify">STC has clarified that if the government provides a grant equivalent to the loss of Rs 350 million, the proposed raise in salt price will be withdrawn. According to a source, STC will make a profit of Rs 1.50 if it increases the price at the moment. However, the corporation might close down due to accumulated loss if the price remains the same.</p>

<p style="text-align:justify">In order to raise the salt price, Central Monitoring Committee under the Chairmanship of Joint Secretary of the Supply Ministry has to take a decision. According to Rajbhandari, a team of the Ministry is analyzing the issue. The STC transacts salt amounting to Rs. 2 billion annually.</p>

<p style="text-align:justify">Ministry Spokesperson Shrestha says that a serious study is needed before rising rice as salt is an essential commodity.</p>

<p style="text-align: justify;">Earlier, when share broker companies were centralised in Kathmandu, investors from outside valley were compelled to visit the capital during each share transaction which was more of the hassles to the investors.

<p style="text-align: justify;">According to him, the challenges in the upcoming days will be that the company has to move ahead in the market by introducing new technology by maintaining its quality. &ldquo;There is no situation to stay satisfied by looking at the income of the previous year,&rdquo; he said, adding, &ldquo;The market of the company is decreasing and the company should be alert on it.&rdquo;</p>

<p style="text-align: justify;">As an alternative for the government-owned companies which need to compete commercially, the government has made arrangement for &nbsp;a system to make our own procurement regulations on as an alternative to the &nbsp;public procurement Act in government offices. Jha suggested that NT that the company take benefit from this kind of regulation and move ahead for a strong competition.</p>

<p style="text-align: justify;">NT is providing fix-line, mobile, VSAT, internet and other value added services. Likewise, the company has also recently started 4G service for the first time in the country.</p>

<p>They were speaking at a programme entitled &#39;Finance Your Dream&#39; organised here on February 3 by the Himalayan Climate Initiative (HCI), a non-profit organisation that runs social innovation and business incubation hubs in Nepalgunj and Kathmandu.</p>

<p>At the programme, Nirvana Chaudhary shared his thoughts on young entrepreneur&#39;s challenges in access of finance. Along with that, he also shared about CG&#39;s commitment to support young startups with information technology bent.</p>

<p>&quot;Being an entrepreneur, we feel more responsible towards improving the entrepreneurial eco-system, so, we are making a large chunk of money available for such young entrepreneurs,&quot; he said.</p>

<p>Likewise, Anand Bagaria spoke about the importance of incubation hubs which create an environment where entrepreneurship ideas are brought into the business world.</p>

<p>&quot;The core idea for a business startup can come both ways. We generally think it comes from the entrepreneur and then get supported by investors. However, many a times, it also comes from investors and picked up by the young entrepreneurial talents,&quot; he added.</p>

<p>Prashant Singh, Founder of HCI, while opening the event said, &quot;The biggest social imperative of the day in Nepal is to create a large number of employment opportunities for the country&#39;s youth that are leaving us for abroad. It is possible only through creating an enabling atmosphere for setting up businesses that create most employments.&quot;</p>

<p>The programme was participated in by around 400 young entrepreneurs. The organizers of the programme shared that the event expected to attract many entrepreneurial ideas that would be further shaped at HCI incubation hubs.&nbsp;</p>

			'content' => '<p style="text-align: justify;">February 5: The government is preparing to provide sovereignty to Securities Board of Nepal (SEBON) in order to minimise problems of domestic capital market as per international practices. The Financial Sector Development Strategy 2073/74 announced by Finance Ministry mentioned about the fact. The ministry announced the strategy in a bid to address the problems related with capital market.</p>

<p style="text-align: justify;">The government is adapting sectorial diversification promotion strategy to promote currently uniform and sluggishly developed capital market. It is also formulating improved law and regulatory practices for merchandise market. The strategy also mentions of easing investment from domestic and international institutional investors in Nepali securities market.</p>

<p style="text-align: justify;">In a due process, the government will restructure Nepal Stock Exchange (NEPSE), encourage good governance in NEPSE and listed companies and improve legal and regulatory structure for CDS and clearing. The government, citing lack of good governance and management in NEPSE and ineffective supervision of SEBON on NEPSE and CDS due to their capital structure, has formulated the policies. It is directed toward minimising or extracting government ownership in NEPSE and CDS.</p>

<p style="text-align: justify;">Similarly, the government is rolling out the strategy of expanding securities traders&#39; service sector, encourage participations of general people and improve regulatory and supervisory practices of capital market. The ministry said that the Nepali capital market is still trapped in its initial phase.</p>

<p style="text-align: justify;">After the implementation of the policy, daily transaction amount of securities market is expected to reach Rs 2 billion. Similarly, investors with D-mat account will be increased to 500,000. Moreover, participations from all sectors of the economy in the capital market will be mechanised.&nbsp;&nbsp;</p>
