A bunch of startups are not entering the booming Indian e-bus ecosystem and becoming overnight successes. Just take the case of EKA mobility. Before 2023, EKA was barely a company. It was more the R&D wing of Pinnacle Industries, which is a major manufacturer of seating and interiors for legacy automakers like Tata Motors and Ashok Leyland. But when the government launched the PM E-Drive subsidy back in September, everything changed for Eka Mobility. The five-year-old startup turned into a full-fledged EV manufacturer. Eka Mobility is one among many beneficiaries of the EV wave here in India. But naturally, it does not come without its challenges. Which is why, despite India's e-bus ambitions slowly gaining momentum thanks to government funding, the private sector has barely put its foot on the pedal. Tune in. Daybreak is now on WhatsApp at +918971108379.

India and the United States are progressing in their discussions to collaboratively produce the latest generation of Stryker armoured infantry combat vehicles (ICVs).Initially, the project will involve a limited off-the-shelf acquisition of Strykers through the US Foreign Military Sales program. Subsequent phases will include joint production in India, culminating in the co-development of future versions.Host Dev Goswami and defence expert Shiv Aroor discuss the American Stryker combat vehicles deal and the ICVs' battlefield applications. They raise the larger question: Does India need this deal? With private players like Mahindra, Tata, or Ashok Leyland, couldn't India build something similar, given that the Stryker ICVs have few exemplary specifications? “I am not saying that India can do better than the Stryker right now, but we sure can get close,” says Shiv. They also explore how a deal for armoured vehicles from the US might threaten the 'Make in India' initiative.Moreover, the Canadian aspect of the deal cannot be ignored amid the flared-up diplomatic tensions between India and Canada. How will this be factored in and pan out?Tune in to know more!Produced by Anna PriyadarshiniSound mix by Nitin Rawat

Welcome to CNBC-TV18's Marketbuzz Podcast, here are all the important cues ahead of the trading session of June 3 -In what is likely to be one of the most interesting sessions of the year or even more, the Gifty Nifty suggests not just a record high for Nifty but a start with gains of more than a whopping 500 points. -Before the final D-Day tomorrow that is the result day of Lok sabha elections 2024, exit polls on Saturday forecast a historic third term for Prime Minister Narendra Modi. The exit poll results were also on similar lines of market anticipation. -Most exit polls released predict a historic third term for Prime Minister Narendra Modi. The Bharatiya Janata Party-led National Democratic Alliance (NDA) is projected to secure more than 350 seats, comfortably crossing the halfway mark in the Lok Sabha. Although it may fall short of the ambitious '400 paar' target -An exit poll conducted by News18 Poll Hub is expecting the National Democratic Alliance (NDA) to win between 355 - 370 seats for the Lok Sabha elections. The Bharatiya Janta Party (BJP) is expected to win between 305 - 315 seats, which is nearly at par or slightly higher than the 303 seats the party won in 2019. -The Nifty had a forgettable last week as investors chose to book profit from record levels and wait for the exit polls outcome by sitting on the sidelines. The index ended 2% lower in the week gone by. Investors lost over ₹8 lakh crore courtesy of the weakness seen last week. However, they might look to recover most of that sooner or later, after the exit poll outcome. -Expert commentary is key to watch today, Prashant Khemka of White Oak Capital believes that the Nifty will be hitting levels of 50,000 in the next five years, which is more than double of where it currently is. Raamdeo Agrawal, Chairman and Co-founder of Motilal Oswal Group, believes this could mark the beginning of a 'higher for longer' market rally, especially if the BJP achieves its '400-paar' target. -Among the sectors that brokerages have bet on that are likely to be the key beneficiaries on the continuation of the current government would be PSUs, railways, defence, and other manufacturing and capex oriented sectors. Raamdeo Agrawal of Motilal Oswal though, expects the banks to emerge as the outperformers. CLSA also prefers larger banks due to the valuation comfort. -Stocks to watch: Hero MotoCorp, Tata Motors, Maruti Suzuki India, TVS Motor, Mahindra & Mahindra, Ashok Leyland, Eicher Motors, Escorts Kubota, defence PSUs, railway stocks, Adani Ports, Canara Bank, Welspun Corp, Aurobindo Pharma, MOIL, Coal India, Ashoka Buildcon, REC, Inox Wind, Aarti Pharmalabs -On the global front, Asia-Pacific stock markets mostly rose Monday ahead of a private survey on China's manufacturing sector. Wall Street futures were calm ahead of the first trading day in June, with the Dow Jones Industrial Average futures up 25 points, or less than 0.1%. S&P 500 futures were flat, and Nasdaq 100 futures were down 0.1%. -Oil extended losses this morning after OPEC+ set out a plan to restore some suspended production as early as October, despite concerns over the demand outlook and robust supply from outside of the group.

India's GIFT Nifty on the NSE International Exchange was down 0.40 percent at 19,396 at 7:59 am. Nifty 50 is likely to open closer to 19,350 mark.

Retail inflation rose to a 15-month high of 7.44 percent in July, predominantly due to rising vegetable and cereals prices also dragged sentiment.

Meanwhile, Wall Street equities fell overnight after stronger-than-expected retail sales data triggered concerns.

Maa kaa aashirwaad, OK TATA Bye Bye, Hum Do Hamare Do, Mera Bharat Mahan - Sounds familiar? I am talking about the slogans written behind the truck. But we are not going to discuss those, rather the heavy vehicles on which these are written. Yes. Trucks. In 1911, truck designer Charles Martin built a gasoline-powered tractor to pull modified horse-drawn commercial wagons. His most significant innovation, however, was the fifth-wheel coupler. A round plate with a central hole, it attached to the top of tractor frames to connect and support trailers. Trucks are broadly divided into light-duty, medium-duty, and heavy-duty classifications depending on their weight. And in today's episode, we will try and introduce ourselves to how are trucks designed. I am pleased to have Sathiya Seelan Gangaasalam with us on Audiogyan. He is currently Vice President of Design at Ashok Leyland. An industrial designer who has spent over 2 decades designing cars, trucks, busses, and three-wheelers. Sathiya is a Design thinker, mentor, and writer and also a passionate watercolor artist. Questions Can you paint us a landscape of Trucks and truck market in India? Who are the key players, what gets designed, manufactured in India and what's imported and more? Which sectors use Truck the most and for what purpose? What are some of the principles on which a trucks are designed? How do you define success of a good truck design? Do we have further classification of sub categories within light-duty, medium-duty, and heavy-duty trucks? Specially for India? Can you tell us the brief stages involved while designing a truck or a heavy duty vehicle? From idea to hitting the market and evolution? Why do truck manufacturers usually design a new model about every five to seven years? Do we have special differences while designing heavy duty vehicles specifically for India? Do companies spend time designing accessories (Bells and Whistles) for a truck which is mostly meant for work? Tell us a little bit about the cabin - Safety features, Digital displays, Storage, Charging, Button start, sleeping, lights and more Reference Reading https://www.linkedin.com/in/sathiyaseelan-g-4bb95048/?originalSubdomain=in https://www.dsource.in/resource/history-automotive-design-india/top-automotive-designers-india/sathiya-seelan https://www.instagram.com/sathiyaseelangangasalam/?hl=en

Serendipity usually plays a huge role in entrepreneurship. It played an outsized role in Tarun Mehta's journey to founding Ather Energy, easily India's best-known electric scooter maker.When Mehta graduated from IIT Madras, he wanted badly to become a consultant because it was where the money and aura was. But he didn't get a job as a consultant. Then he tried to get into Harvard Business School for an MBA, but that didn't pan out either.Instead, he ended up at Ashok Leyland, a maker of buses and trucks. It took four months after he joined for Mehta to be allocated a computer of his own. During that time, he'd walk around and find a computer belonging to someone who hadn't come to office. Or he'd walk through its sprawling Chennai campus and read books in its library. Of course, his salary wasn't high by any standards.The low salary and lack of any meaningful work allowed Mehta to drift back to the IIT Madras campus he'd graduated from. After convincing a professor of their desire to build battery packs, Mehta and his co-founder Swapnil Jain, moved to an empty hostel room to start building things.Building hard things.That's the origin story of Ather Energy, the company that started out wanting to build battery packs, but ended up doing multi-year deep dives to re-imagine virtually every part of an electric scooter. This stubbornness would bring Ather Energy to the brink of death five times.Today, Ather sells over 10,000 electric scooters in India. Next year, it wants to double that number. And then some more.Tarun speaks at length about his journey to convince investors of his vision; doing hard things that defied common sense; building an organisation over decades; and why it takes at least three years to make a true impact at work.If you'd rather (or perhaps also) read than listen, we have published the full transcript for this interview on our website.

The sharp recovery from June lows has helped benchmark indices recoup all the year-to-date losses.  The YTD gains for benchmark Nifty50 and Sensex indices now stands at over 1%. In comparison, global peers across the US, Asia and Europe are down in the range of 2% to 42%. Analysts say the one-way rally over the past two months has been triggered by strong foreign portfolio investments, drop in commodity prices, and hopes of less aggressive rate hike by the Reserve Bank of India. They also expect India's relative outperformance to continue as it looks better placed with a healthy economic recovery and remains one of the fastest growing major economies. So, which are the stocks and sectors that should be on your radar? Analysts say investors should start nibbling in stocks with a focus towards the domestic economy-related sectors. Sunil Subramaniam, MD and CEO, Sundaram Mutual says global economy is going through anticipated downturn and India stands out as a shining light. Fall in oil prices ensues positive for the Indian economy.  Focus on Infrastructure, capital goods, building materials. Falling commodity prices to benefit discretionary consumption, automobiles, housing sector. Banks, NBFCs other key beneficiaries.  Nitin Raheja, Executive Director, Head - Discretionary Equities, Julius Baer Wealth Advisors, too, has a similar view. He says, India likely to have one of the highest GDP growth rates globally. This may be driven by financials and domestic consumption. BFSI, real estate, mortgage finance, building materials and hiring businesses doing well.  Among individual stocks analysts say export-oriented themes may give muted returns in the near-term. Thus, one could focus on domestically-focused stocks like L&T, UltraTech Cement, JK Cement, Tata Communication, Indraprastha Gas, GAIL, Brigade Enterprise, Tata Motors, Ashok Leyland, Dabur India, Jyothy Labs, Sapphire Foods, SBI, IndusInd and SBI Card. That said, weak global demand, and uncertainty with respect to global energy situation makes India vulnerable with respect to inflation, current account deficit, corporate profitability and currency.  On Friday, markets will react to the European Central Bank's interest rate decision, and assess US Fed chair Jerome Powell's speech at the Cato Institute's conference. That apart, oil prices, dollar index movement and stock-specific cues will guide the indices.

The automobile industry, especially, four-wheelers, is expected to pick up momentum in the coming months as robust demand and easing supply worries lift their prospects. As per analysts, pent-up demand, new launches and increased mobility are among the key factors driving growth.   Patil estimates a 15% year-on-year growth for passenger vehicles in the current fiscal, which could cool down to 12-13% in FY24 on a high base.  Besides, analysts also expect a decent improvement in consolidated profit margins for passenger vehicle makers in FY23 due to the declining prices of key raw materials such as aluminum and steel. Those at JM Financial, for instance, say, “Owing to a 10% correction in steel prices recently, we expect gross margin to be favorably impacted in Q3FY23. Our analysis suggests that a 5% correction in the raw material basket will benefit the EPS by 2-15% for auto and auto ancillary companies." Saji John, Auto Research Analyst, Geojit Financial Services says festive season, normal monsoon, EV adoption to drive volumes. Production levels have normalised amid fall in metal, fuel prices. Remain watchful on inflation, borrowing costs in near-term. On the bourses, shares of four-wheeler companies like Maruti, Ashok Leyland and Mahindra & Mahindra have surged up to 50% so far this year as sales improved amid easing semi-conductor shortages and demand pick-up.  In comparison, the Nifty auto index has gained 18%, while the Nifty50 edged just 1% higher during the period. That said, market mood will be steered by global peers today as investors react to PMI data from across the western countries. In the primary market, Dreamfolks Services' IPO will open for subscription.

Sri Lanka is in a crisis. Covid-19 has sent the economy into a tailspin, and it is in free fall now. Its Prime Minister Ranil Wickremesinghe recently said that the country's economy has “collapsed”. The spillover of the crisis has reached Indian shores too. ITC has said that its first foreign venture in the hotel space has been hit. Earlier, the 300-million-dollar project in Colombo saw construction being impacted due to the 2019 terror incidents and then the pandemic. In April, a financial daily had reported that automotive firms like Tata Motors, Mahindra & Mahindra, Ashok Leyland, and TVS Motors had stopped exports of vehicle kits to Sri Lanka and halted production at their Sri Lankan assembly units due to its precarious forex reserves and fuel shortages.   According to an India Briefing note by Dezan Shira & Associates, instability in Sri Lanka could affect Indian Oil, Airtel, Taj Hotels, Dabur, Ashok Leyland, Tata Communications, Asian Paints, and State Bank of India. Meanwhile, Sri Lanka's share in India's total exports has declined from 2.16 per cent in FY15 to just 1.3 per cent in the first 10 months of FY22. India's export to Sri Lanka is now nowhere near the 6.7 billion dollars seen in 2014-15. Till January 2022, it stood at 4.49 billion dollars in FY22.   But there is a silver lining too. Since Sri Lanka has been the world's largest supplier of orthodox tea, calls to Indian planters and exporters from foreign buyers of the commodity are pouring in. Big Sri Lankan importers from Iran, Turkey, Iraq, and Russia are reportedly visiting Kolkata and tea plantations in Assam. As a result, at recent Kolkata auctions, the average price for orthodox leaf saw an increase of up to 41 per cent compared to corresponding sales last year. And, the fuel shortage in Lanka is crippling its apparel sector too. According to the US International Trade Administration, the apparel export industry accounts for about 44% of the country's total exports. Many apparel orders from the UK, EU, and Latin American countries are now being diverted to India. Several orders have been given to companies in Tirupur, the hub of the textile industry in Tamil Nadu. Sri Lanka has been a strategically important partner for India. Even as some of our businesses are hit, and some try to fill the void created by the Sri Lankan crisis, India's assistance in this time of need will only lead to better ties with the island nation that has long been leaning towards the Chinese camp.  

Indian truck manufacturer Ashok Leyland has announced a distribution partnership with ETG Logistics (ETGL), which will include ETGL operating Ashok Leyland dealerships in six countries in Southern Africa. The agreement will cover countries such as Zambia, South Africa and Mozambique. ETG is a global conglomerate operating across various markets, with its ETGL vertical an automotive and farm equipment distribution business active in South Africa, Namibia, Zimbabwe, Lesotho, Swaziland, Botswana, Tanzania, Zambia, Mozambique and Kenya. “We have ambitious growth plans for the African market,” says Ashok Leyland international operations head Amandeep Singh. “Our time-tested products are well suited for the African terrain and offer a superior value proposition. ETG group's extensive connections in these markets will complement our growth plans.” Ashok Leyland is already present in most East and West African countries. ETGL CEO Rajeev Saxena believes the new partnership will be instrumental in providing “a range of commercial vehicle solutions to address the specific requirements of different customer groups in the territory”. The Ashok Leyland trucks to enter the Southern African market range from small 1.5 t payload movers to 20 t tucks and tippers, notes ETGL South Africa business head Pavankumar Nair. ETGL is currently engaged with the process to meet the local compliance requirements on the range of Ashok Leyland vehicles to be introduced locally, and “should be able to start sales in South Africa in July”. Sales in the rest of Southern Africa “will start soon”, says Nair. He adds that Ashok Leyland is a familiar name in the region, as the brand has a presence in the specialised defence vehicle market and, to some extent, commercial vehicles that arrived as special projects.

Inflation has soared past 17%. People are dying while waiting in queues for fuel, and authorities are scrapping school exams after running out of dollars to import paper and ink. Sri Lanka is going through its worst economic crisis since its Independence. And the ripples are now being felt in India too. Driven out by hunger and loss of jobs, people from the island nation are seeking refuge in India, which is doing its best to help the neighbouring country. India has extended financial assistance to the tune of $2.4 billion in the last three months to Sri Lanka, which includes a $400 billion RBI currency swap, deferral of a $500 million loan and a $1.5-billion credit line for importing fuel, food and medicines. In addition to an International Monetary Fund Bailout, the southern neighbour has sought credit support of $2.5 billion from China. The island has been facing daily power cuts and double-digit inflation, which hit 17.5% in February. The Sri Lankan central bank allowed the local currency to devalue by 30% in a month. The crisis has been mainly caused by a shortage of foreign exchange reserves. They have plummeted 70% in two years to just $2 billion at the end of February, which can barely cover two months of imports. Meanwhile, the country has foreign debt obligations of about $7 billion this year. The forex crisis is the result of several factors. Tourism, which is the country's third-largest foreign exchange earner, came to a virtual halt after the 2019 Easter Sunday suicide bombings which killed more than 250 people. Tourist arrivals dropped by as much as 70%. And then the pandemic struck, dealing a severe blow to the tourism industry. And remittances from foreign workers, which is the nation's biggest source of dollars, slumped 22.7% to $5.5 billion in 2021. The country's heavy dependence on imports for essential goods like sugar, pharmaceuticals, fuel, pulses and cereals worsened the crisis. The government's ban on chemical fertilizers last April as it looked to become the first country to fully adopt organic farming backfired. A survey showed that 90% of Sri Lanka's farmers used chemical fertilisers for cultivation. The move led to a drastic drop in domestic food production, pushing up food prices. The decision was rolled back after months of mass protests by farmers but the damage was done. Food inflation soared to 25.7% in February. The crisis is now starting to impact Indian exporters. Thousands of containers sent from India to Sri Lanka, including for its own consumption as well as trans-shipment cargo, have been lying uncleared at Colombo port as authorities can't afford to transfer containers between terminals. This, in turn, has led to some build-up of cargo intended for Sri Lanka at Indian ports. India also relies considerably on Colombo port for global trade given it is a transhipment hub. 60% of India's trans-shipment cargo is handled by the port. India-linked cargo, in turn, accounts for 70% of the port's total trans-shipment volume. India has traditionally been among Sri Lanka's largest trade partners. Prior to the pandemic, India was the top tourism source for Sri Lanka. More than one-fifth of Sri Lanka's total imports come from India. India is also one of the largest contributors to Foreign Direct Investment in Sri Lanka. FDI from India amounted to about $1.7 billion from 2005 to 2019. After China and the UK, India was the biggest source of FDI for Sri Lanka in 2019 at $139 million. The main investments from India are in the areas of petroleum retail, tourism and hotel, manufacturing, real estate, telecommunication, banking and financial services. A number of leading companies from India have invested and established their presence in Sri Lanka. These include Indian Oil, Airtel, Taj Hotels, Dabur, Ashok Leyland, Tata Communications, Asian Paints, SBI and ICICI Bank. Although Sri Lanka holds minor importance to India in terms of trade, it is a geopoliti

Top headlines   ·       Sensex ends above 59,000, up 929 points; Nifty tops 17,600 ·       Eicher Motors surges over 5% on Royal Enfield's strong December sales ·       TCS gains 4% in three days, hits 13-week high ·       Textile shares rally on improved outlook ·       Nifty due for a pause, may even ease in early 2022, says UBS ·       India's Manufacturing PMI at three-month low in December   Indian equities kicked off calendar year 2022 on a solid note as fresh record highs in global markets bolstered domestic investors' confidence. The S&P BSE Sensex, which opened quietly, later gained strength during the day to hit a high of 59,266. The index then settled 929 points higher at 59,183 levels.   The NSE Nifty50, meanwhile, ended the day at 17,626, up 272 points after touching an intra-day high of 17,647. The top gainers on the index included Coal India, the Bajaj twins, Tata Steel, ICICI Bank, IndusInd Bank, and HDFC Bank. The laggards were largely from the pharma space, including Cipla, Dr Reddy's Labs, and Divis Labs. Nestle India, HUL and M&M were some of the other top losers.   After a stellar two-year run for the Nifty during which it even left the S&P 500 behind at times, analysts at global investment firm UBS believe that the index's current valuation does not fully reflect upcoming headwinds. In a report, it said these headwinds include rising interest rates, both globally and in India, and importantly, the return of India's current account deficits. Given these factors, a multi-month pause for the index may be in order, according to the report.   This apart, among sectors, all indices today clocked smart gains, barring the Nifty Pharma index, which ended 0.5 per cent lower.   Banks, Financials, Auto, and IT shares led the benchmark indices to their respective fresh highs of the day. The Nifty Bank and Private Bank indices were the top performers, rising 2.7 per cent each, followed by the Nifty Financial Services, which was 2.5% up.   The Nifty IT index closed 1% higher today after hitting a record high of 39,286. Individually, the shares of IT major TCS hit a 13-week high of Rs 3,829, up 2.5 per cent, in intra-day trade. The stock has gained 4 per cent in the past three days on the BSE, and hit its highest level since October 8, 2021. The company's December quarter results are scheduled to be declared on January 12.   Auto shares also remained in demand on the back of healthy sales data for the month of December. Auto majors Tube Investments, Tata Motors, Ashok Leyland, Bharat Forge and Maruti were among the top gainers on the Nifty, all of which ended between 1 and 7% higher.   Eicher Motors rallied 5.5 per cent on the BSE, for instance, after the company's Royal Enfield brand reported a 43 per cent rise in month-on-month sales at 73,739 units in December. The company reported its best reading in several months. On a year-on-year basis, the Royal Enfield sales grew 7 per cent.   Besides, the shares of textile companies also maintained their upward movement on improved outlook. Shares of Vardhman Textiles and Sangam India hit their respective record highs, while Cantabil Retail touched a 52-week high on the BSE.   Lastly, on the macroeconomic front, India's manufacturing activity lost some momentum in December, easing to a three-month low of 55.5, after hitting a 10-month high in November, amid fears that the rapidly spreading cases of Covid-19 may hit consumer sentiment and output.

With the better part of the earnings season behind us and the US Federal Reserve's stance on liquidity and interest rates known, trading in stock markets from here could be bumpy for Dalal Street investors in the near term.   Last week, the BSE Sensex ended Samvat 2077 at 60,068 levels, while the Nifty50 settled at the 17,917 mark. The exchanges conducted the Muhurat Trading session on Thursday evening to usher in the Samvat.   However, red flags are now up on the Street, with analysts advising investors to tread carefully as the markets face multiple headwinds – both from domestic and global factors – which could keep them choppy.   Independent market analyst Ambareesh Baliga said:   Markets will be volatile in the near term Utilise any bounce-back to partially book profit Red flags: High oil prices, Fed tapering, reduced liquidity   So which sectors could possibly see a correction? And which ones may present a good buying opportunity? Baliga said:   Use correction to buy: Real Estate, specialty chemicals, pharma Correction likely in: Auto, Cement, Metals   From a long-term perspective, Motilal Oswal, MD & CEO of Motilal Oswal Financial Services, believes markets have always moved in tandem with earnings growth. And although there would be ups and downs in between, he expects the overall trend of the market to remain positive in Samvat 2078 as well.   This week, however, markets will focus on primary market action, the last leg of corporate earnings, and economic data.   EVENTS THIS WEEK Paytm IPO: Nov 8-10 Sapphire Foods and Latent View Analytics IPOs: Nov 9-11 Nykaa Listing: Likely on Nov 11 CPI inflation: Nov 12 Earnings: Coal India, Hero MotoCorp, BHEL, MRF, NMDC, Ashok Leyland   Three new initial public offerings – those of Paytm, Sapphire Foods and Latent View Analytics – are set to hit the Street this week. Moreover, Nykaa's shares could also debut on the bourses on November 11.   In the secondary market, stock-specific action will remain high, with companies like Coal India, Hero MotoCorp, Ashok Leyland, MRF, and BHEL slated to announce their results this week.   On the economic front, retail inflation data for October will be released on November 12.   Globally, markets will react to the US Fed's decision today as the markets open for trade on the first day of Samvat 2078. Oil prices, FII fund activity, and the rupee's movement will also guide the sentiment this week.

From established names like Tata Motors to new-age technology companies like Ather Energy and Ola, the automobile sector is shifting its focus to electric vehicles in view of an unprecedented rise in pollution levels and the climate change crisis therefore. The first breed of EVs to come out in the market are battery electric vehicles. Though good, these vehicles are not an alternative to the internal combustion engine, or ICE-based, vehicles simply because they have a limited range-per-charge capacity and are dependent on external charging systems. On that note, the Fuel Cell Electric Vehicles, or FCEVs as they are called, make a better alternative to ICEs-based vehicles.  How? Let's find out What is a Fuel Cell Electric Vehicle? The FCEV is a type of electric vehicle that does not require external charging, but a fuel like Hydrogen to generate current required by the electric vehicle for mobility and to charge the built-in batteries for auxiliary functions. Much like the ICE-based vehicles, the FCEVs will require fuel but a green one that does not pollute the environment. How do FCEVs work: The FCEVs are electric vehicles that derive energy from a fuel cell powered by hydrogen, instead of drawing it only from a battery. Unlike conventional electric vehicles, where the battery is the primary source for vehicle traction, FCEVs use electricity generated by hydrogen-powered fuel cells and need the battery for auxiliary functions like starting the vehicle or storing energy generated from regenerative braking. Therefore, the FCEVs do not require plug-in capability to charge the battery but need hydrogen as a fuel to operate. Are FCEVs available in India? FCEVs are currently not available in India, but they have been tested here. Earlier in 2021, the country's largest power generator, National Thermal Power Corporation (NTPC), had asked the automobile industry to procure such vehicles for pilot projects. News reports suggest that international automobile makers Toyota and Hyundai Motor, and India's Tata Motors, Ashok Leyland and KPIT Technologies had shown interest in the initiative.

The benchmark indices ended lower for the fourth straight day on Friday amid slowing global economic growth and inflation fears. At close, the Nifty50 index was down 86 points at 17,532 while the BSE Sensex ended with a loss of 361 points at 58,765. The broader markets ended the day mixed with the BSE Midcap falling 0.11 per cent and Smallcap indices rising 0.48 per cent. About 1716 shares have advanced, 1373 shares declined on the BSE, indicating the breadth is in favour of advances. Sectorally, buying was seen in pharma, metal, PSU Bank and energy sectors whereas selling was witnessed in realty, banking and IT space. Meanwhile, the auto space was in focus today as automobile companies announced their monthly sales data for September today. The auto pack traded mixed with companies such as Maruti Suzuki, Ashok Leyland and Eicher Motors ending lower amid fall in auto sales as the semiconductor shortage hit production. That said, TVS Motors' shares and those of M&M rose on the back of robust two-wheeler and tractor sales, respectively. Vinod Nair, Head Of Research at Geojit Financial Services said the auto sector is holding-on despite weak sales, in anticipation of festival demand, as numbers from major manufacturers showed a fall in September sales. Telecom stocks--Bharti Airtel and Vodafone Idea--too fell today on news that the Department of Telecommunications has issued notices to them to pay Rs 3,050 crore in cumulative penalties within three weeks for flouting licence conditions by denying Reliance Jio Infocomm adequate points of interconnection in 2016. Coming to other stock-specific moves, the shares of Zee Entertainment fell 3 per cent as the company's board rejected Invesco's demand to hold an extraordinary general meeting to remove current MD and CEO, Punit Goenka and induct its nominees. VST Tillers too ended at the 10% upper circuit after the company entered into a Master Service agreement with Zimeno Inc to develop integrated tractor powertrain. Further, public sector aviation company Air India was also in the limelight today as Tata Sons is said to have won the bid for Air India, but the official announcement is awaited. But, DIPAM later clarified that reports indicating financial bids in Air India disinvestment case are incorrect. The stock of Paras Defence and Space Technologies made a strong debut on Friday as the scrip got listed at Rs 475 on BSE against its issue price of Rs 175. This translates into a listing gain of as much as 171 per cent. The Rs 170.78 crore IPO, which was sold from September 21 to 23, received a record breaking response from investors. The issue was subscribed 304 times during the offer period.

Investors on Dalal Street have a host of cues to look forward to in trade today. While the global trade setup largely remains strong, firm crude prices could weigh on sentiment. That apart, stock-specific action amid ongoing earnings season and macroeconomic data are among other factors that can hold sway over the market trajectory. High volatility could also be on cards amid the weekly F&O expiry. Early indications are in favour of a strong start for the benchmark indices as SGX Nifty traded 30 points higher at 16,324 around 7.35 am. Further, smallcaps and midcaps could bounce back after three days of heavy selling following BSE clarification on the Add-On Price Framework. On the macro-economic front, Industrial production for June and CPI inflation for August will be released today. Industrial production expanded by nearly 30 percent year-on-year in May 2021 due to a low base in May 2020 when there was a nationwide lockdown. Meanwhile, CPI inflation will be a key data to watch out for especially after the RBI increased its FY22 inflation forecast to 5.7 per cent from 5.1 per cent earlier. Furthermore, in overnight trade, Dow Jones and S&P 500 closed at record levels as data indicated US inflation growth may have peaked, while sectors tied to economic growth advanced on the heels of the passage of a large infrastructure bill. Dow Jone added 0.6 per cent, S&P500 0.25 per cent while Nasdaq slipped 0.16 per cent. Asian shares failed to follow a strong close on Wall Street with fears about the spread of the Delta variant of the coronavirus weighing on sentiment. The Hong Kong benchmark fell 0.2 per cent while Australian shares were largely flat and Japan's Nikkei rose 0.35 per cent. Oil prices, meanwhile, held onto gains from earlier in the week. Brent crude was flat at $71.43 per barrel. Now, a look at stock-specific triggers that are likely to sway the market today. Ashok Leyland, Aurobindo Pharma, Eicher Motors, Hero MotoCorp, IRCTC, NMDC, Natco Pharma, Oil India, Page Industries, Power Finance, BPCL and Tata Steel are among key companies slated to post their quarterly earnings. Cutting down on its losses over the last year, footwear major Bata India today reported a Rs 69.5 crore net loss for the April-June quarter. In the corresponding quarter previous year, the firm had posted Rs 101 crore net loss. PNB Housing Finance is now looking to raise Rs 35,000 crore debt, after facing legal hurdles in the Carlyle group deal, days after SAT gave a split verdict in the matter. Knitwear major Rupa & Company Ltd on Wednesday reported a 32 per cent jump in its net profit to Rs 27.2 crore in the first quarter of the current fiscal. Lastly, a look at the primary market action. The initial share sale of Aptus Value Housing Finance India received 37 per cent subscription on the second day of offer on Wednesday while Chemplast Sanmar was subscribed 26 per cent. Both issues close for subscription today.

Large-cap stocks again took the lead over the minnows, although the magnitude declined following a clarification by BSE that the new Add-on Price Framework was applicable to securities with market cap of less than Rs 1,000 crore. Further, it will cover only scrips that are part of X, XT, Z, ZP, ZY and Y group and quote at more than Rs 10 per share. This sparked a recovery in the midcap and smallcap segments but even then both the indices declined for the third day straight. On Wednesday, the Midcap index lost 0.22 per cent and BSE Smallcap index 0.83 per cent. In the last three sessions, both indices have shed between 5-7 per cent spooked by a new surveillance framework by BSE. The market breadth remained in favour of sellers. The BSE adavnced-decline ratio was at 1:2. Analysts believe broader markets may be close to making a short term bottom and this may enable the Nifty to rise mildly in the near term. Overall, the benchmark indices ended the volatile session flat. After gyrating 591 points in intra-day, the BSE Sensex closed 29 points or 0.05 per cent down at 54,526. Nifty eked out 2-point gain to end at 16,282. Tata Steel, NTPC, Power Grid and RIL were the top Sensex gainers. The sectoral trend was mixed. Nifty Metal snapped its two-day losing run and rallied over 3 per cent. On the other hand, Nifty Pharma tanked 1.5 per cent. Banking and financial sectors remained under pressure today. On stock-specific front, Zomto's performance stood out. The stock rallied following its Q1 numbers as a better-than-expected revenue performance pushed investors to lap up shares. The scrip ended at Rs 135.80, up 9 per cent after rising as much as Rs 138.90 o BSE. Lupin and Sequent Scientific, meanwhile, tanked following their Q1 numbers presentation. Lupin shares lost over 6 per cent to end settle at Rs 1050.20 as the company reported a disappointing performance for the April-June quarter (Q1FY22) on the margins front. Shares of Sequent Scientefic lost 15 per cent on a sharp 86 per cent YoY decline in Q1 profit. A strong perfomance in Q1 pushed Pidilite stock over 2 per cent higher. The company's performance in June quarter looked impressive on a low base last year. Its Q1FY22 PAT stood at Rs 217.6 crore vs Rs 15.8 crore YoY. Shares of Tata Steel rallied nearly 4 per cent to Rs 1426.45 on the BSE ahead of its Q1 results on Thursday. Meanwhile, in the primary market, CarTrade Tech and Nuvoco Vistas IPOs managed to sailed through on last day of bidding process. CarTrade Tech garnered over over 20 times subscription and Nuvoco Vistas nearly 2 times. IPOs of Chemplast Sanmar and Aptus Value struggled to reach the halfway mark. Chemplast was subscribed only 25 per cent on Day 2 and Aptus 37 per cent. Both issues close on Thursday. Now, going into trade tomorrow, apart from action in primary market, stock-specific activity will continue to remain high in the secondary market as hundreds of companies are slated to post their numbers, including Ashok Leyland, Aurobindo Pharma, Eicher Motors, Hero MotoCorp, IRCTC, NMDC, Natco Pharma, Oil India, Page Industries, Power Finance and Tata Steel. Further volatility on account of weekly expiry will be high. Market will also watch out for IIP and CPI figures that are slated for release tomorrow. And on the global market front, Street will react to the US CPI figures due today apart from global cues.

After a volatile last week, investors can expect much the same going into the trade this week due to scheduled derivatives expiry of June month contracts. Meanwhile, with no major domestic macroeconomic data lined up this week, investors will closely eye global markets for cues. Besides, the progress of monsoon, Covid-related updates and RIL AGM will also be in focus. Analysts suggest that traders should be cautious and adopt a stock-specific approach as markets get volatile. On the other hand, long term investors can take advantage of this volatility and adopt a 'buy-on-dips' strategy. As Covid cases continue to recede and states re-open, doctors opined to not let the guard down and warned the third wave of the pandemic could be upon the country in the next 6-8 weeks. India's fresh Covid cases have stayed below 1 lakh for the last 14 days while on Sunday, the country reported 58,419 fresh cases, the lowest in 81 days. Going forward, the pace of infections and vaccination will sway the market trajectory. Meanwhile, on the earnings front, over 100 companies are slated to post their March quarter numbers this week, including ONGC, Oil India, NMDC, Ashok Leyland, Info Edge, Sobha and Apollo Hospitals. With the Q4 earnings season coming to a close, the focus will soon turn to next quarter earnings. That said, one of the biggest event for markets of the year -- Reliance Industries' AGM -- is slated for Thursday and will be closely tracked by investors. The AGM could provide details on a possible Budget phone launch by Jio in association with Google, progress on 5G technology and update on a deal with Aramco. Most analysts have maintained bullish bets on RIL ahead of AGM. The action in the primary market will continue as IPO by India Pesticides will open for subscription on Wednesday. The Rs 800 crore IPO is priced in the band of Rs 290-296 per equity share. Furthermore, two IPOs that closed for subscription last Wednesday are slated to make their debut on the bourses this week. Sona BLW Precision Forgings (Sona Comstar) and Shyam Metalics & Energy are expected to list on exchanges on June 24. Lastly, the rupee's trajectory, FPI flow and oil prices can further sway market sentiments. And now, let's take a look at the trade setup for today. As the global market mood soured, investors back home also braced for a sharp correction today. SGX Nifty was ruling 190 points lower at 15,559 around 7.35 am, indicating a gap-down start for the benchmark indices. Globally, stocks dropped as investors mulled the implications of a surprise hawkish shift last week by the U.S. Federal Reserve. Japan's Topix index shed 2.5%, Australia's S&P/ASX 200 Index dropped 1.8%, South Korea's Kospi index fell 0.9% and Hong Kong's Hang Seng Index declined 1.2%. S&P 500 and Nasdaq futures traded 0.3% and 0.1% lower, respectively. A look at the stock-specific triggers that are likely to guide the market today. Oil India, Info Edge, Bharat Dynamics, TCNS Clothing, and VST Tillers Tractors are among 70 companies slated to post their quarterly numbers today. Saudi Aramco chairman and Governor of the Kingdom's wealth fund Public Investment Fund, Yasir Al-Rumayyan, may be inducted on the board of Reliance Industries a precursor to a USD 15 billion deal, reports said. In a rare regulatory move, Sebi has restrained PNB Housing Finance from going ahead with shareholders' voting on the proposed Rs 4,000 crore-deal with Carlyle group and directed the company to carry out the valuation process as per the relevant legal provisions. NTPC posted nearly three-fold jump in consolidated net profit to Rs 4,649.49 crore for March quarter 2020-21 on the back of higher revenues. The consolidated net profit of the company in the year-ago period was Rs 1,629.86 crore. UCO Bank said its board will meet next week to consider raising up to Rs 500 crore as tier-II capital.

Benchmark equity indices slumped over 1 per cent in Friday's intra-day session but made a sharp V-shaped recovery to end the day little changed. Financials and metals exerted pressure on the bourses, even as gains in Reliance Industries, FMCG, and select private bank stocks tried to limit the losses. The S&P BSE Sensex fell 722 points intra-day but recovered to close 21 points, or 0.04 per cent, higher at 52,344 levels. The broader Nifty50 index, meanwhile, bounced back from the day's low of 15,451 to end at 15,683 levels, down 8 points or 0.05 per cent. The correction was deeper in the broader markets where the BSE MidCap and SmallCap indices closed 0.7 per cent and 0.89 per cent down, respectively. Overall, the market breadth was heavily skewed towards bears with the Advance to Decline ratio standing at 1:2. ONGC, Coal India, Power Grid, JSW Steel, UPL, NTPC, M&M, SBI, and Nestle India were the top laggards among the large-cap stocks while Mahanagar Gas, Ashok Leyland, SAIL, Canara Bank, Max Financial Services, Graphite India, HEG, Hindustan Copper, Affle India, and Wockhardt Pharma cracked in the mid-, and small-cap segments. Sectorally, the Nifty PSU Bank declined nearly 2 per cent while the Nifty Auto, Metal, and Realty indices slipped up to 1 per cent each. On the upside, the Nifty FMCG index ended 0.29 per cent higher. Buzzing stocks   Shares of Vodafone Idea soared 10 per cent on report that the company may raise up to Rs 7,000 crore via QIP route. Reports further suggest the Department of Telecommunication may allow Vodafone Idea to raise funds supported by FDI. Shares of SBI Cards and Payment Services, on the other hand, tanked 6 per cent to Rs 984 on the National Stock Exchange (NSE) in intra-day trade on Friday after around 64 million shares, representing 6.8 per cent of the total equity of the company, changed hands on the NSE and BSE. While the names of the buyers and sellers could not be ascertained immediately, reports said US-based private equity firm Carlyle planned to offload 5.1 per cent stake in SBI Cards and Payment Services. The stock eventually ended 4 per cent lower on the NSE. Shares of Nazara Technologies also tanked 12 per cent to Rs 1,463.75 on the BSE in intra-day trade after foreign brokerage firm CLSA initiated coverage on the stock with a Sell rating and target price of Rs 1,095, citing hefty premium valuation. The stock was trading close to its 52-week low level of Rs 1,412.50 hit on April 12, 2021. Lastly, shares of Adani Ports and Adani Enterprises snapped their four-day losing run as they surged 7 per cent and 9 per cent, respectively. Adani Power, Adani Green, and Adani Transmission, however, hit their 5 per cent lower circuit for the fifth straight day. In the primary market, the initial public offer of Dodla Dairy garnered subscription of over 45 times on the final day while that of KIMS got oversubscribed by nearly 4 times till 4:15 PM. Global markets   Stocks were stranded just below record highs on Friday, with investors left looking for direction after digesting the US Federal Reserve's more hawkish stance. In Asia, MSCI's broadest index of Asia-Pacific shares outside Japan was flat after falling for four sessions. Chinese blue-chip shares were also little changed, along with Japan's Nikkei. In Europe, a slide in bank and energy stocks hit shares, with a hawkish policy outlook from the US Federal Reserve also casting a dampener. The pan-European STOXX 600 index was down 0.2 per cent while Germany's DAX index fell 0.3 per cent.

Enthused by less than three lakh daily Covid-19 cases for the second straight day, domestic indices advanced over 1 per cent on Tuesday. Automobile and consumer discretionary stocks caught investors' fancy as they hoped that restrictions would ease once cases decline further. Supporting the sentiment were news flows around vaccination front that more and more pharma companies are tying up for vaccine manufacturing. Visibility on economic recovery has largely continued even during the lockdown and now, with restrictions likely to ease, consumer demand is expected to make a come-back, believe analysts. On the top of it, global brokerage Morgan Stanley's belief that Indian equities are likely to outperform their emerging market (EM) peers in 2021 further bolstered sentiment. While the brokerage's base case scenario pegs Sensex at 55,000 by December this year, it may hit 61,000 in a bull-case scenario. Given this, the benchmark S&P BSE Sensex soared 613 points, or 1.24 per cent, to end the day at 50,193 levels with only four stocks -- Bharti Airtel, ITC, Dr Reddy's Labs, and State Bank of India -- settling the day in the red. The index settled above the 50,000-mark for the first time since April 1. On the NSE, the Nifty50 index reclaimed the 15,000-mark for the first time since March 12 on a closing basis, and shut shop at 15,108 levels, up 185 points or 1.24 per cent. M&M (up 6 per cent), Bajaj Auto, Titan, Bajaj Finance, Adani Ports, Tata Motors, and Indian Oil Corporation were the top Nifty gainers today while Airtel, ITC, Coal India, Divis Labs, UPL, and Grasim were the top laggards. In the broader market space, the S&P BSE MidCap index zoomed 1.9 per cent to settle at 21,232 after hitting a record peak of 21,265 levels earlier today. Investors are heading more for mid-cap stocks as growing risk appetite and cheaper valuations of these companies as compared to large-cap peers have revived their popularity. Jubilant FoodWorks, Indian Hotels Company and Page Industries from the consumer discretionary space; Ashok Leyland, TVS Motor Company and Bharat Forge from automobiles; AU Small Finance Bank, Muthoot Finance, Shriram Transport Finance Company and Federal Bank from financials; and Adani Transmission, Adani Power and Adani Green Energy from Adani Group were up between 3 per cent and 6 per cent on the BSE. The SmallCap index, meanwhile, ended 1.3 per cent higher at 22,848. Individually, shares of Gland Pharma hit an all-time high of Rs 3,135 on the BSE, up 12 per cent over its previous close, following a 34 per cent year-on-year rise in its consolidated net profit to Rs 260.4 crore in the March 2021 quarter on robust sales. The stock has rallied a whopping 108 per cent since its listing in November last year. The firm's March quarter results have convinced analysts of more upside as they see growth prospects for Gland going ahead. That apart, shares of Adani Green Energy were locked in the 5 per cent upper circuit band for the second straight day, at Rs 1,199.65 on the BSE on Tuesday, after a Bloomberg report suggested that the Adani Group Company is in advanced talks to acquire privately-held SB Energy Holdings Ltd. The company, however, has clarified that at this point in time, there is no event / information that requires disclosure neither there is any definitive agreement signed by the Company which requires any disclosure. However, the Company shall make appropriate public disclosures as and when there is a disclosable event. Shares of Tata Motors ended 3.5 per cent higher ahead of the announcement of its Q4 results. The automobile major reported standalone net profit of Rs 1,690 crore in the March quarter compared with net loss of Rs 2,215 crore in the previous year period. On a consolidated basis, net loss stood at Rs 7,623 crore.

About Speaker: Aneesh Bangia is an alumnus of IIT Madras. After working in Ashok Leyland for a year, he discovered his love for teaching. He started teaching children and then turned into an entrepreneur to solve the more fundamental issues with the school system. He is the co-founder of a revolutionary start-up called Open Door. Aneesh started Open Door in 2014 along with his college mate Abhishek Kariwal with the vision of making students better self-learners. In the first year of inception, they started teaching children in small batches in their learning centres in Pune and Bangalore. They used to teach by mainly asking questions and allowing children to understand difficult concepts by themselves. Aneesh strongly believes that the teachers in classrooms should speak less, ask more questions and once they have asked a question, they should allow children the time to think. The purpose of teaching should mainly be to develop thinking habits among children, with learning of the topic being a by-product. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/future-school-leaders/message
