Slumdog Millionaire is a 2008 British-Indian drama film directed by Danny Boyle and written by Simon Beaufoy. It is based on the Booker Prize winning novel Q and A by Indian author and diplomat Vikas Swarup.

Set and filmed in India, Slumdog Millionaire tells the story of a young man from the slums of Mumbai who appears on a game show and exceeds people's expectations, arousing the suspicions of the game show host and of law enforcement officials.

The term slumdog in the title of the film may mean the story line that a young man from the slums has risen to win a fortune.

FAQ: "Jai Ho!", Hindi for Let There be Victory and the title of the movie's Oscar-winning best song, and "Slumdog" -- the controversial term coined by the filmmakers for young slum-dwellers in Mumbai -- were named the top "HollyWords" of the year that closed with last Sunday's Oscars.

Central Electricity Regulatory Commission CERC today issued the Tariff Regulations for generation and transmission
projects for the period 2009-14. These regulations have been finalized after detailed
consultation with the stakeholders and would also be the guiding principles for the State
Electricity Regulatory Commissions. The regulations aim at attracting much desired
investment in power infrastructure in the country while ensuring that the consumers get
electricity at reasonable cost. The following are the important features of the new
regulations:
(1) The base rate for allowing return on equity has been raised from 14% to 15.5%
keeping in view the need of attracting investment in the current market conditions.
(2) To incentivise timely completion of projects in the present period of power
shortages, an additional return on equity of 0.5% will be available to those projects which
are commissioned within the given timelines.
(3) In addition to increased rate of return on equity of 15.5%, the regulations contain
several provisions to boost development of hydro power projects. By modifying the
proposal in the draft regulations new hydro power projects have been appropriately
insulated from hydrological risk during the first ten years of their operations. The
regulations also allow enhanced free power and rehabilitation cost according to the new
Tariff Policy, with the objective of expediting project implementation. Tariff for hydro
power project has been restructured to incentivise supply of peaking power.
(4) Return on equity will be now pre-tax for which the base rate of 15.5% would be
grossed up by applicable tax rate for the company. This would incentivise investment
promotion as the benefit of tax holiday will be now available to the project developer. On
the other hand, consumers would not have to bear the burden of income tax on the UI
earning, incentive earning and efficiency gains of the projects. This has been a major
grievance of the beneficiaries.
(5) While doing away with the advance against depreciation in line with Tariff
Policy, depreciation rates have been reworked to take care of repayment of debt
obligations of the new projects. However, once the initial period of 12 years is over,
remaining depreciation would be spread over the balance useful life to keep the tariff
reasonable.
(6) Regulatory philosophy of CERC has been to incentivise efficiency gains and to
periodically pass the improvements to beneficiaries Accordingly, the availability target
for recovery of fixed cost for thermal power plants has been raised from 80% to 85%.
The station heat rate has also been tightened. For the new units, operating margin of only
6.5% would be permitted with respect to the design heat rate. The regulations give
maximum permissible design heat rate to ensure that inefficient machines are not
procured. The norm for secondary oil consumption has been slashed from 2 ml per unit to
1 ml per unit. Further, the savings in secondary oil consumption are to be shared with the
beneficiaries in ratio of 50:50%.
(7) The economies of scale available to the developers in operation of expansion
projects are to be shared with the beneficiaries as the permissible O&M expenditure will
be descaled for new expansion units.
(8) To make the tariff fixation more objective and simple, CERC has decided to set
up capital cost benchmarks for thermal power projects and transmission projects. The
provisional tariff has been done away with and the companies will get final tariff upfront.
(9) Tariff regulations have given due attention to the need of renovation and
modernization. The companies operating thermal power plants will have now two
options. Either they can claim a special allowance on the basis of per MW per year after
completion of normative useful life of the project and will be obligated to deliver the
norms set for availability and operations. Second option is to go for comprehensive R&M
which is to be permitted by Commission on the basis of detailed cost benefit analysis
including the efficiency gains to the beneficiaries.
(10) To incentivise higher availability of power plants, the incentive available to the
generating companies will now be available on the basis of declared availability instead
of plant load factor because the generators can only declare better availability and actual
schedule is not within their control.
(11) The Commission has decided to separately bring out the tariff regulations for
renewable energy based projects. This exercise has already been started and is likely to
be completed within next six months.
