***Listen to Episode #125 FIRST for Part 1!***While many have heard of the famous missionaries Adoniram and Ann Judson (in fact, we just had two episodes on them), few know the names of those who came to Burma after them to continue what is arguably one of the greatest Baptist mission works of all time. The missionaries who followed gave just as much of themselves to ensure the Gospel was heard by every Burman possible.In this episode, Tracie and Abigail discuss the untimely ministry of Ellen Mitchell, an unassuming woman who failed to follow societal expectations, but instead gave her latter years to one of the highest callings: missions on the foreign field! While she spent her "sunset" years working on a foreign missionfield, and many of her dreams for the ministry were never realized in her lifetime, her investment came to an unlikely fulfillment years after her earthly life ended. This episode is an excellent reminder that our work for God has no end when we trust God with our investment in the cause of Christ.Join us this April 11 & 12, 2025, for the ⁠⁠⁠2nd annual North Florida Baptist Ladies Conference⁠⁠⁠.

Lorents Burman (S) om Northvolts konkurs: ”Ett mardrömsbesked”

Skellefteås kommunalråd om konkursen, kommunens satsningar på Northvolt och om varför han tycker att staten ska gå in med pengar för att rädda fabriken. Lyssna på alla avsnitt i Sveriges Radio Play. Lorents Burman (S) är kommunstyrelsens ordförande i Skellefteå. Under det senaste decenniet har han jobbat för Northvolts etablering i kommunen. Veckans konkursbesked var ett hårt slag: ”Det är klart att det är ett mardrömsbesked. Det är 3 000 personer som jobbar direkt i fabriksanläggningen och för dem är det förstås en stor oro och förtvivlan vad det kommer att innebära.”, säger Lorents Burman. Enligt en rapport som Region Västerbotten beställt visar att en konkurs kan innebära fem procent minskade skatteintäkter de kommande åren. Lorents Burman hoppas att en eller flera nya ägare nu stiger fram och köper fabriken, så att verksamheten kan fortsätta. Han säger att det finns flera stora intressenter som vill ta över batteriproduktionen i Skellefteå. Men de förra ägarna lyckades ju inte få till produktionen i den skala som krävdes. Vad talar för att nya ägare skulle lyckas? ”Jag tror man kan dra många lärdomar under de här åren, åtta år senare finns det en mycket större kompetens i Europa och i Sverige hur den här typen av ny produktionsteknik ska gå till. Det är väl ofta så att när det sker sådana här stora skiftbyten i industripolitik, det är en ny hundraårig industriera som skapas nu i Europa, så har man lärt sig mycket.” För att nya ägare ska kunna driva vidare fabriken krävs att personalen stannar kvar i Skellefteå. Många har kommit från länder utanför EU, de måste lämna landet inom tre månader om de inte fått en ny anställning. Lorents Burman tycker att regeringen och staten, dels ska göra ett undantag på reglerna, och dels ska hjälpa till för att snabbt få nya ägare på plats:”Om den svenska regeringen är delaktig i samtalen med de här finansiärerna och de ny ägarkonstellationerna så stärker ju det också tron på att man ska våga satsa vidare på batterifabrik i uppe i Skellefteå för Sveriges skulle och Europas skull.”Staten måste också ge nya ekonomiska stöd och finansiella garantier, enligt Burman: ”Det kan vara direkta medel från regeringen”, säger Lorents Burman. Northvolt valde att etablera sig i Skellefteå eftersom Skellefteå var den kommun som erbjöd de bästa förutsättningarna för företaget; billig el från kommunägda kraftbolaget Skellefteå Kraft, elnät, industrimark och en utbyggd hamn. Under de senaste åren har kommunkoncernen investerat flera miljarder i elnät, elproduktion, bostäder och infrastruktur – investeringar som till del varit till nytta för Northvolt. Skellefteå Kraft gick också in med 100 miljoner kronor i Northvolt 2018. Men Lorents Burman menar att industritomten är det enda som kommunen investerat direkt i Northvolt.”Det var väl ungefär 150 miljoner med anslutningsvägar och sånt och vatten och avlopp. Men det är en ganska normal prisbild.”, säger Lorents Burman.

Welcome to Top of the Morning by Mint, your weekday newscast that brings you five major stories from the world of business. It's Monday, February 10, 2025. This is Nelson John, let's get started. Air traffic is booming in India. Manufacturers are actively seeking deals at the Aero India exhibition, highlighting the country's potential. The International Air Transport Association (IATA) is set to hold its annual general meeting in June in New Delhi, a testament to India's growing market influence. According to Airbus India's Remi Maillard, “ India is now the third-largest air market globally, after the U.S. and China”. Boeing's Salil Gupte echoed this sentiment, calling India the most dynamic and exciting market. The civil aviation ministry claims a meteoric rise in the sector, with traffic growth projected over seven percent annually until 2043. Although rail travel remains popular, it's often slow and chaotic. Boeing estimates that converting just two percent of daily train users to air travel could double the air market, given the current low per capita air travel of 0.12 compared to 0.46 in China.Going by these statistics, the Indian market will need at least 2,835 new aircraft in the next 20 years, and all major players like Indigo, Airbus and Air India are gunning for the Next big leap in the airline sector. Ola Electric will need to consistently sell 50,000 units every month in order to achieve profitability, says founder and chief executive officer (CEO) Bhavish Aggarwal. To be sure, Ola Electric has faced considerable criticism due to widespread customer complaints about poor service centre experience. In September last year, Mint reported that Ola's service centre backlogs had risen to 80,000 customer complaints per month.Speaking to an analyst, Aggarwal claimed that the company had recaptured its market leadership in terms of volumes with 25,000 units sold in January.The company has consistently been under pressure, with Ola Electric's shares losing about 2% on Friday alone to settle at ₹70 apiece on the BSE—only 8% off its all-time low. The company has suffered a quarterly net loss of ₹564 crore in the last quarter of 2024.Aggarwal, however, claimed that the company “maintained a steady industry leadership with a market share of over 25%.” The recent deportation of 104 illegal migrants to India by the US government has sparked controversy in the Indian Parliament. In the midst of this debate, Prime Minister Narendra Modi is scheduled to visit the United States from February 12 to 13, where he will engage in discussions with President Donald Trump, as quoted by Indian Foreign Secretary Vikram Misri.Earlier, on January 27, President Trump and Prime Minister Modi held a conversation focused on immigration matters and the importance of India purchasing more American-made security equipment.The United States is India's largest trading partner, with two-way trade surpassing $118 billion in 2023/24, and India recording a trade surplus of $32 billion.As a strategic partner of the United States, India will aim to enhance trade relations, simplify access to skilled worker visas and review import tariffs on over 30 items, including luxury cars, and solar cells, potentially boosting imports from the US amid rising global trade tensions.4)The Reserve Bank of India's monetary policy committee (MPC) on Friday cut the key policy interest rate by 25 basis points to 6.25% to support growth. At a post-policy press conference, new RBI governor Sanjay Malhotra spoke on a range of issues such as implementation of the proposed guidelines on liquidity coverage ratio (LCR), working with the government on various recommendations, geopolitical developments, and the cost of policy actions on regulated entities. It is not only about stability, the implementation of LCR norms comes at a cost. It requires a strict impact analysis and enough time to be implemented. While the Rupee depreciation puts pressure on inflation, a higher worry is how global uncertainties would pan out. 5) Religare Enterprises Ltd chairperson Rashmi Saluja informed shareholders at the company's annual general meeting (AGM) on Friday that she was not retiring as a director, a move that stumped shareholders and proxy advisory firms. However, a third of Religare's investors told Mint that they had voted against Saluja's reappointment as director. Manendra Singh, partner at law firm Economic Laws Practice revealed that "Under the Companies Act, 2013, the chairman can regulate the manner in which voting is conducted, but cannot take away the voting rights of its members.” The Burman family, which owns a little over 25% of Religare, got approvals from all regulatory agencies and offered to buy up to 26% shares from minority investors via an open offer that opened on 27 January. Following the hearing on Gaekwad's appeal, the Supreme Court said the Burmans' open offer cannot be closed until the Sebi decides on the legality of Gaekwad's competing offer.

Can Rashmi Saluja hang on to Religare?

Welcome to Top of the Morning by Mint, your weekday newscast that brings you five major stories from the world of business. It's Wednesday, February 5, 2025. This is Nelson John, let's get started. Despite India's solid track record of fiscal discipline and a narrowing fiscal deficit, international rating agencies like Moody's and Fitch remain cautious about upgrading India's sovereign rating. Currently, Fitch Ratings assigns India a 'BBB-' with a stable outlook, which is the lowest investment grade, suggesting good credit quality but vulnerability to adverse conditions. Similarly, Moody's and S&P rate India at 'Baa3' and 'BBB-', respectively. This contrasts with China's 'A+' and the US's 'AA+', indicating higher credit qualities and lower default risks. The hesitation to upgrade India's rating affects the cost of borrowing and investment attractiveness, crucial for economic growth, N Madhavan reports. Critics, including UNCTAD, argue that international rating agencies may be biased against emerging economies. Despite significant growth, robust financial systems, and strong foreign investor interest, India's rating has remained unchanged for two decades. India is set to develop its own AI chip, aiming to enhance its technological independence and global competitiveness. This initiative, led by the Ministry of Electronics and Information Technology in collaboration with the Centre for Development of Advanced Computing (C-Dac) and the National e-Governance Division, focuses on creating a chip using the open-source 'Risc-V' architecture. The goal is to support academic researchers and startups in building foundational AI models, Shouvik Das reports. High-level discussions have involved not only Indian experts but also US Big Tech firms and Taiwan's TSMC, to craft a chip fully made in India by 2027, leveraging local talents and resources. This move is part of a broader strategy under the India AI Mission, aiming to establish a domestic chip production capability that reduces reliance on foreign technology, particularly in light of recent geopolitical tensions and supply chain vulnerabilities highlighted by US restrictions.Rashmi Saluja's tenure as chairperson at Religare Enterprises may be nearing an end amid a contentious takeover battle. Despite efforts to stabilize the company post-bankruptcy, about one-third of its investors have voted against her reappointment ahead of the upcoming AGM on February 7th. The Delhi High Court has also declined Saluja any interim relief to halt the AGM proceedings. Investors, including the Burman family who owns 25.1% of Religare, have expressed a desire for new management to steer the company towards growth. With 31.85% of shareholders, including financial firms and mutual funds, voting against her, Saluja's reappointment seems unlikely unless there is an unexpectedly high turnout in her favour from smaller shareholders. The National Medical Commission (NMC) is gearing up to elevate India's postgraduate medical education to global standards by forming Specialty Expert Committees (SEC) for each speciality. Priyanka Sharma spoke to Dr B. Srinivas, secretary at the NMC, who said that these committees will develop model curriculums, assess educational institutions, and address academic needs, aiming to standardize and improve the quality of speciality courses across the country. This initiative, highlighted in a letter to medical colleges reviewed by Mint, also involves these expert committees in handling student grievances and other speciality-specific requirements. The NMC has called for nominations of faculty members ready to join this effort, with a deadline for submissions set for within 15 days. The move comes as part of a broader effort to address the disproportionate doctor-patient ratios in India by boosting both graduate and postgraduate medical manpower. Wingify, started in 2009 in Delhi, has grown significantly, boasting a global customer base and robust revenue growth, reaching ₹288.61 crore in 2023-24. This bootstrapped startup's success caught private equity firm Everstone's eye, especially Wingify's self-sufficient growth and strong technology base. This acquisition aligns with Everstone's focus on technology-driven firms, following a similar investment in MediaMint, Shadma Shaikh reports. The deal not only marks a significant phase for Wingify but also stands out as a successful bootstrapped venture in the SaaS space, showcasing that startups can achieve substantial growth without external funding. This event is seen as a boost for the Indian SaaS ecosystem, reflecting a mature, profitable company making a significant impact globally.

Welcome to Top of the Morning by Mint, your weekday newscast that brings you five major stories from the world of business. It's Monday, January 27, 2025. This is Nelson John, let's get started. US President Donald Trump's "Make in America" initiative aims to revitalize American manufacturing by encouraging companies to establish operations in the US or face higher tariffs on exports. Trump proposes incentives like a low 15% corporate tax rate for domestic manufacturing. This move challenges the existing global manufacturing hubs in Asia, like China and Vietnam, known for their lower costs and extensive supply chains. The impact of Trump's policy could be significant, as it encourages high-tech and sophisticated manufacturing to return to the US. For India, this is a wake-up call to enhance its manufacturing competitiveness. Key issues include outdated technology, high logistics costs, and regulatory complexities. Despite the government's efforts through policies like the productivity-linked incentive scheme, progress is slow. India's investment in R&D is also minimal compared to global standards, affecting innovation. Shelley Singh writes about how Trump's “Make in America” approach will impact India. Indian-American businessman Digvijay Danny Gaekwad's bid to acquire a significant stake in Religare Enterprises for ₹5,000 crore might hit a regulatory snag. Anirudh Laskar reports that Gaekwad's offer, priced at ₹275 per share, is more competitive than the Burman family's offer of ₹235 per share but could violate SEBI's takeover norms due to its timing and the size of the stake sought. SEBI's rules also require a counteroffer to involve more shares than the initial bid. Moreover, there are concerns about the conditions attached to Gaekwad's offer and the clarity around his funding sources. The battle for control is really about Religare's profitable health insurance arm, Care Health Insurance. Religare's chair, Rashmi Saluja, has been resisting the Burmans' attempts to take over the company since the Dabur owners first showed interest in the financial services company in September 2023. Now, with Gaekwad's sudden move, things might get even more tangled.India plans to tighten enforcement on third-party vehicle insurance by linking it to everyday vehicle-related activities. The Union finance ministry is considering measures such as mandatory insurance checks when buying fuel, obtaining FASTags, or renewing driving licenses and pollution control certificates, Subhash Narayan reports. This push comes amid concerns that over half of the vehicles on Indian roads lack third-party insurance, despite the legal requirement under the Motor Vehicles Act, 1988, which mandates such coverage and prescribes severe penalties for non-compliance. The proposed changes, which are still being finalized, aim to ensure that more vehicles are insured by integrating insurance checks with regular vehicle-related transactions. Motilal Oswal Group is considering selling its housing finance arm, Motilal Oswal Home Finance, which began as Aspire Home Finance Corp in 2014. Currently, the group holds a 97.49% stake in the subsidiary, which has a loan book of Rs 4,098 crore. Shayan Ghosh reports that industry valuations suggest the unit could be worth between Rs 3,612 crore to Rs 5,031 crore, based on its March-end net worth of Rs 1,290 crore. Despite initial asset quality issues, with gross non-performing assets peaking at 9.2% in FY19, the situation has improved significantly, with a gross NPA ratio of 0.86% as of March 2024. The Union budget for FY26 is likely to significantly boost funding for R&D of high-yield hybrid seeds for essential crops like pulses, edible oils, and cotton, to address shortages and reduce import dependency. This move aims to develop climate-resilient seed varieties to increase productivity and improve farmers' incomes. The planned increase in budget allocation reflects a broader effort to improve agricultural outputs amid challenges such as climate change. For instance, cotton imports are expected to rise by 42% this financial year due to falling exports and domestic production issues. Currently, funding for agricultural education is set to rise by 8% in FY25, emphasizing the government's focus on enhancing agricultural capabilities through education and research. Additionally, the government has initiated the release of 109 high-yield crop varieties, expected to reach farmers in three years.
