NEED FOR WATER SUPPLY & WASTE WATER TREATMENT

 

  • NEED FOR WATER SUPPLY & WASTE WATER TREATMENT



  • With a budget of $51 bn, Jal Jeevan Mission (JJM) sponsored by Government of India is working towards realizing the vision of ‘Har Ghar Jal’, and laying the foundation for a sustainable, equitable water future. However, water security goes beyond mere access. It necessitates fostering a holistic ecosystem where access is not just granted but also perpetuated through continuous efforts. By putting communities at the heart of the change process, we can make a difference.
  • The NITI Aayog’s 2018 Composite Water Management Index (CWMI) depicts an unsettling picture of macro-water availability in India – despite being home to 17% of the world’s population, it has only 4% of the world’s freshwater resources. 
  • The total water demand in India is projected to increase by 22% and 32% in 2025 and 2050 respectively and, by 2050, 85% of this demand is expected to come from industrial and domestic sectors alone.
  • According to a NITI Aayog, India will need investments of Rs.20 lakh crore to bridge the expected water supply gap by 2030.
  • Various reports indicate that out of India’s population of 1.4 billion people, 35 million people lack access to safe water and 678 million people lack access to a safe toilet. Extreme water stress, contaminated surface water and lack of access to piped water supply are the major challenges faced by the country currently. 
  • Water is essential for crop production. For the production of crops, freshwater resources are widely used in India. Water is important for the growth of plants throughout their life in massive quantities.
  • India is also currently grappling with an unprecedented water crisis. This is characterized by severe water scarcity affecting over 40% of its population. Several major cities across the country have even reached a critical point where groundwater levels have depleted to zero. This alarming situation is exacerbated by projections from the World Bank, which estimate that by 2030, India’s water demand will exceed its supply by nearly 50%. This poses a substantial challenge in meeting the water needs for both domestic and commercial purposes.

Looking to park some excess funds for the short term.  LiquidBeES by Nippon - has been the default choice for years. But lately, it’s become muscle memory to run everything past ChatGPT.  Just a quick: “Is there a better option than LiquidBeES?” It turns out, there is.  LIQUIDCASE by Zerodha AMC.  Difference was not subtle and decision was easier : - Expense ratio: Less than half of LiquidBeES - Net returns: ~6.2% vs ~5.7% (1-year annualized) - Same safety, same liquidity - AUM already >1/3rd of LiquidBeES in record time This is how discovery is changing. And this is how smart products go viral. Zerodha didn’t try to educate the market.  Discovery is no longer driven by ads or advisors.  It’s driven by habit, trust, and tools like ChatGPT. And when you get it right, traction follows fast. I won’t be surprised if LIQUIDCASE overtakes LiquidBeES in under 18 months. Thank you for contacting Rounaq!
