Re 1 the previous year) and the fee to MS Dhoni, the brand

ambassador.

They were also miffed at non-executive vice chairman R

Seshasayees Rs 3-crore salary. They said he should take a cue from

NR Narayana Murthys Re 1 salary. Hinduja later said, This took

more time than a Hindi or a Tamil film.

3)Sony Xper ia Z Ultra launched in I ndia,

priced at Rs 46,990Taking the phablet race to an all new level, Sony has now launched a

smartphone with a 6.4-inch screen.

Priced at Rs 46,990, the device has got a full HD Triluminos display for

immersive viewing experience.

Although it comes in a sleek 6.5mm chassis, the Xperia Z Ultra is too

broad to hold. Sony has added a one-side keyboard software option but

the device is impossible to hold with one hand.


7/16

Weighing 212 grams, it feels heavy to hold in front of most of the flagships smart

phones . In an effort to make it waterproof and dust resistant, all the ports have been

tightly covered with flaps.

The smartphone is powered by the latest Qualcomm Snapdragon 800 chipset with aquad core processor clocked at 2.2GHz and is coupled with 2GB of RAM. Onboard

storage is 16 GB with support for expandable memory of 64GB.

There is also an 8MP camera that can be used for underwater photography. The

Xperia Z Ultra also supports writing and sketching with input from finger, stylus oreven a pencil.

Sony has also launched a range of accessories for this phablet that includes a stereo

headset, a battery case and a magnetic charging dock that can be purchased.

The Sony Xperia Z Ultra will be available in the market from August 2.

But looking at the huge size and expensive price tag, I believe Sony will face a tough

time selling this smartphone.

8) Import duty on sugar raised to 15%

The government on 30th July,2013 hiked import duty on sugar to 15 per cent from 10

per cent to help the industry clear Rs 9,000 crore cane arrears to farmers-- a move that

would make the sweetener costlier for the common man.

In a notification issued by the Central Board of Excise and Customs (CBEC), the duty

of both raw and white (refined) sugar have been raised to 15 per cent.

The sugar imports have been putting pressure on domestic prices and have prevented

millers from clearing cane arrears to farmers.


14/16

Currently, millers in Uttar Pradesh are selling sugar to wholesalers at rates lower than

even the production cost, according to the industry experts.

The hike in duty is aimed at curbing import of sugar and improving the bearish

sentiment in domestic market.

This would, however, lead to rise in sugar prices across the country.

projected that the market size of Indian cosmetics industry which is currently

estimated at Rs.10,000 crore will double to be worth Rs. 20,000 crore by 2014 due to
