Not for Jay Kotak, the eldest son of Uday Kotak, Asia’s richest banker. “Comfortable mediocrity is a common aspiration in today's youth. Our parents and grandparents lived in tougher times - creating a social contract that admired success,” he said in a <a href="https://twitter.com/jay_kotakone/status/1260852135954022401">very popular tweet. </a> Jay however is burdened much more than any of his peers. His father is the chairman of India’s third largest private bank - Kotak Mahindra Bank. Soon, he might be filling his father’s large shoes as the senior Kotak has recently introduced his eldest son to investors and analysts formally. Jay Kotak has been working at the bank for the last five years after he graduated from Harvard. His outspoken personality and sense of humour has manifested itself into a regular toon inspired from him, called Jay Speaks in Business Standard. The Kotak family owns the business newspaper. McKinsey - Goldman Sachs - Kotak Mahindra Bank Jay Kotak completed his MBA at Harvard Business School in 2017 and has a BA in history from Columbia University. After a short consulting stint at McKinsey and an internship at Goldman Sachs in New York, Jay joined Kotak Investment Bank in 2017. Two years later, junior Kotak started working with his father’s team at Kotak Mahindra Bank in retail banking business as executive assistant to Shanti Ekambaram, group president of the consumer bank. After the pandemic, when many businesses moved online, Jay joined Kotak’s 811 team. He was appointed to co-head the neobank division with Manish Agarwal, business head of Kotak 811. Kotak's 811 app draws its name from November 8, the day in 2016 when the government announced demonetisation and cancelled 86% of all rupees in circulation. <div type="image" title="pasted image 0 (5)" msid="91891620" hostid="261" caption="&amp;lt;p&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;During his college years, Jay sported a bun. Looking back, he now pokes fun at himself by comparing it to the ‘Lion King Mufasa’s mane in one picture.’&amp;lt;/p&amp;gt;"></div> Next in the line? After he was formally introduced, talk of succession planning at the <keyword id="6407278" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="kotak-bank" source="Orion">Kotak Bank</keyword> has been doing the rounds. Uday Kotak’s tenure at the bank comes to an end in December 2023. KVS Manian, head of corporate, institutional and investment banking; and Shanti Ekambaram, group president of consumer banking, are known to be competing for the top job at Kotak Mahindra Bank, as per media reports. But most people now believe that Jay Kotak is also being groomed for a top position, if not that of an MD, at the bank. If he is appointed to a top position at the bank, he would be inheriting one of India’s top private lending banks worth $44.8 billion as per <a href="https://www.forbes.com/companies/kotak-mahindra-bank/">Forbes</a>. Executives in the investment meeting said that Jay’s progress will depend on merit but India’s businesses like to keep operational control within the family. The 63-year-old Uday Kotak is the richest banker in Asia with a wealth of $15.1 billion, according to <a href="https://www.forbes.com/profile/uday-kotak/">Forbes</a>. He kickstarted a <a href="https://www.businessinsider.in/thelife/personalities/news/uday-kotak-richest-asia-banker-4x-growth-in-wealth-in-10-years/articleshow/71516598.cms">financial consultancy</a> to provide cheap loans to companies at the age of 23, which later grew into a bank in 2003.

Platinum and palladium for use in manufacture of precious metal chemicals, compounds (noble metal compounds and solutions) and catalytic converters will continue at basic customs duty of 7.5 % subject to IGCR. <keyword id="922074" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="RHODIUM" source="Orion">Rhodium</keyword> will also continue with BCD of 2.5 %. It is being presumed that the increase in duty on platinum is to plug a loophole which is helping bullion importers to make record profits. As per reports some bullion importers are importing refined gold disguised as platinum alloy. Gold attracts 15 % import duty, as opposed to platinum alloy that invites a duty of 10.75 % which observers say is a case of misdeclaration and duty violation. There were reports that the customs had cleared consignments since the loophole in the notification have not clearly defined alloys of precious metals. The consignments of platinum alloy contained 96 % gold and some importers are importing refined gold under the guise of platinum alloy and making bullion bars.
