It's Monday, March 16th, 2025. This is Nelson John, let's get started.  BIS Cracks Down on Non-Certified E-Commerce Products India's Bureau of Indian Standards (BIS) has intensified its crackdown on non-certified products sold via Amazon and Flipkart. Recent raids in Lucknow, Gurugram, and Delhi led to the seizure of thousands of uncertified goods, including toys, hand blenders, and gas stoves. Investigators traced the source to Techvision International Pvt Ltd, resulting in further seizures of over 11,000 appliances. Legal action is underway under the BIS Act, 2016, with potential fines and jail time. As non-compliant products flood online marketplaces, BIS urges consumers to verify certifications via its BIS Care app while ramping up surveillance to ensure product safety. Berkshire Hathaway's Buyback Pause Continues Warren Buffett's Berkshire Hathaway has halted stock buybacks since May 2024—the longest pause since Buffett gained expanded repurchase authority in 2018. A recent proxy filing confirmed no buybacks between Feb. 10 and March 5, signaling Buffett doesn't see Berkshire's stock as undervalued. Despite this, the company's stock has surged, with Class A shares reaching $771,250—up 13% in 2024, outperforming the S&P 500. Investors remain optimistic due to Berkshire's $300 billion cash reserves and strong insurance sector performance. With the stock trading at 1.7 times book value and 25 times projected earnings, analysts suggest buybacks may remain scarce unless prices drop. India-New Zealand Resume Free Trade Talks India and New Zealand have reopened negotiations for a Free Trade Agreement (FTA) to deepen economic ties, following talks between Commerce Minister Piyush Goyal and New Zealand's Trade Minister Todd McClay. Talks, originally launched in 2010, stalled in 2015 due to disputes over dairy access and market entry. New Zealand seeks broader agricultural exports, while India is pushing for better IT and services market access. With bilateral trade at just $1.54 billion in FY24, both nations see untapped potential. The renewed talks align with India's broader FTA strategy, following deals with Australia and EFTA, as negotiators now focus on tariff reductions and investment facilitation. BWH Hotels Expands Aggressively in India BWH Hotels, operator of Best Western and SureStay, is expanding in India with 21 newly built hotels over the next two years. Speaking at HOPE 2025, CEO Larry Cuculic emphasized a shift from conversions to fresh builds to maintain quality. BWH currently operates 32 hotels across India, Bangladesh, and Sri Lanka, with plans to expand into secondary markets, driven by infrastructure growth and rising demand for business and wedding travel. The company has signed 54 properties, aiming for 100 hotels in 5-7 years. India's hospitality sector is attracting global chains like Marriott and Wyndham, with BWH focusing on managed full-service offerings tailored to local preferences. India's Sugar Production Drops 16%, Raising Supply Concerns India's sugar output has fallen 16.13% to 23.71 million tonnes in the 2024-25 season, causing concern among policymakers. The National Federation of Cooperative Sugar Factories (NFCSF) highlighted “ambiguity” in production data, warning of potential impacts on domestic supply and exports. The crushing season, nearing its end, has seen lower-than-expected yields, possibly due to erratic weather. This decline may lead the government to reassess export policies and stock management, balancing farmer support with stable sugar prices. The industry awaits potential policy adjustments as the government monitors supply dynamics.

In this episode, Monika dives into the debate surrounding Systematic Investment Plans (SIPs) and whether they are truly the wealth-building tool they are often made out to be. A prominent fund manager recently warned that SIPs in small- and mid-cap mutual funds may not yield the high returns investors expect, igniting a firestorm of discussion. Monika explores the claims, comparing historical returns across different asset classes and reminding listeners of the importance of long-term investing. She recounts a colleague's decision to exit equity markets in 2020 due to short-term underperformance—only to miss out on the subsequent market boom.Monika also breaks down the concept of rolling returns, explaining why they offer a more accurate picture of investment performance than simple point-to-point returns. Analyzing Nifty indices over different time horizons, she highlights how long-term SIP investors in well-chosen funds have generally fared well despite market volatility. She stresses that while SIPs are a great tool, they are not a magic bullet—they must be part of a well-structured financial plan that includes asset allocation, rebalancing, and a mix of equity and debt investments.Listener questions bring in real-life concerns. Tanvi Telang, soon to be engaged, seeks advice on managing finances as a couple when incomes and money attitudes differ. Shakti Kumar wonders if four years of underperformance against the benchmark is a sign to switch funds. Lastly, Mahesh Patnala from Gurugram asks if Monika would personally manage his portfolio, expressing his struggles with long-term financial planning.Chapters:(00:48 - 09:37) The great SIP debate and why investors are worried(09:38 - 12:18) Understanding rolling returns and long-term performance(12:52 - 16:41) Managing finances as a couple(16:44 - 17:55) When to switch funds after underperformance(17:57 - 20:08) Finding the right financial guidancehttps://www.advisorkhoj.com/mutual-funds-research/benchmark-rolling-returnhttps://aria.org.in/If you have financial questions that you'd like answers for, please email us at ⁠mailme@monikahalan.com⁠ Monika's book on basic money management⁠⁠⁠https://www.monikahalan.com/lets-talk-money-english/⁠⁠⁠Monika's book on mutual funds⁠⁠https://www.monikahalan.com/lets-talk-mutual-funds/⁠⁠Monika's workbook on recording your financial life⁠⁠⁠https://www.monikahalan.com/lets-talk-legacy/⁠⁠⁠Calculators⁠⁠⁠https://investor.sebi.gov.in/calculators/index.html⁠⁠⁠You can find Monika on her social media @monikahalan. Twitter ⁠⁠⁠@MonikaHalan⁠⁠⁠Instagram ⁠⁠⁠@MonikaHalan⁠⁠⁠Facebook ⁠⁠⁠@MonikaHalan⁠⁠⁠LinkedIn⁠⁠@MonikaHalan⁠Production House:⁠⁠⁠www.inoutcreatives.com⁠⁠⁠Production Assistant:⁠⁠⁠ Anshika Gogoi⁠Sponsor Message: Start your journey towards financial well-being.

Welcome to Top of the Morning by Mint, your weekday newscast that brings you five major stories from the world of business. It's Tuesday, July 16, 2024. My name is Nelson John. Let's get started:The Indian market's benchmark indices —Nifty and Sensex—inched up during Monday's trading session to settle at fresh closing highs. The Indian government is exploring an exciting proposal: getting public sector banks to take equity stakes in state-owned specialized infrastructure financiers. The spotlight is on the National Bank for Financing Infrastructure and Development. This plan is part of a broader effort to supercharge India's infrastructure development, which is already set for a massive investment boost. In fact, the 2024 interim budget has earmarked a hefty 11.1 trillion rupees for capital expenditures, a solid 11.1% jump from last year. Mint's Mihir Mishra and Shayan Ghosh report on the plan that focuses on increasing the capital base of DFIs to 1 trillion rupees, utilizing contributions from banks with robust capital adequacy ratios.Macquarie Group, JSW Group, and Actis have thrown their hats in the ring to acquire Gurugram-based renewable energy platform O2 Power. The companies have even signed a non-disclosure agreement. Mint's economy and policy reporter Utpal Bhaskar reports that the deal, managed by Barclays, is set to potentially value O2 Power at around 1 billion dollars in equity with an enterprise value of about 1.5 billion dollars. O2 Power, counts EQT and Temasek as major investments. The company is eyeing an ambitious expansion to reach a capacity of 5 gigawatts; it's already close, with a current capacity of 4 gigawatts. The acquisition deal is poised to be a landmark in the renewable energy sector, reflecting growing interest in sustainable investments.Kota's coaching centres, once the epicentre for competitive exam preparation, are seeing a notable shift in their student base. With new branches opening in cities like Patna, New Delhi, and Latur, these centres are attracting local students who would have traditionally travelled to Kota. This shift is reshaping the coaching landscape, leading to reduced enrollments in Kota itself and impacting the city's once-thriving educational ecosystem. Mint's Mansi Verma spoke to faculty members across various institutes, including Allen Career Institute. Representatives from Allen highlighted that while Kota is dealing with salary cuts due to fewer students, new centres in other cities are booming.Did you buy a flat in a stressed real estate project and are now waiting for the possession? Thousands in Delhi-NCR bought units in projects across the region around the turn of the last decade - only to find their investments stuck in limbo. While the Supreme Court intervened in 2019, asking state-owned construction corporation NBCC to take over the construction at Amrapali Group's Noida projects, involving 38,000 units, the stressed project landscape otherwise looks very rocky. In 2023, the Indian Banks' Association (IBA) reported that about 412,000 residential units, valued at 4.08 trillion rupees, were affected by halted real estate projects across India. Over half of these, approximately 240,000 units, are located in the national capital region. Additionally, more than 100,000 units are in the Mumbai Metropolitan Region, with significant numbers also reported in Pune, Bengaluru, and other major cities. In a detailed investigation of the troubled real estate market, Mint's Madhurima Nandy explores the protracted delays that have left many homebuyers waiting for years to receive possession of their homes.The government is considering a significant investment of 4.5 trillion rupees over the next five years to construct 23.5 million rural homes under the Pradhan Mantri Awas Yojana Gramin. The allocation targets 20 million new rural houses in addition to completing 3.5 million homes from the previous phase of the scheme. Mint's Puja Das reports that the officials have outlined a phased approach, aiming to complete 4 million houses by the end of FY24, 8 million by FY26, and the remainder by FY29. The proposed funding of about 4.5 trillion rupees includes contributions from both the central and state governments, with the central government providing about 2.9 trillion rupees.We'd love to hear your feedback on this podcast.

Near India's capital, in Haryana state, demolitions of more than 300 homes and shops in a Muslim-majority area have followed clashes that killed six people. The demolitions have been halted for now, but this week, a local High Court raised the idea that the ones that took place might be an act of “ethnic cleansing” by the state. The clashes and demolitions are seen by many Muslims as the latest in a trend of violence in India during Prime Minister Narendra Modi's nine years in power. So what space exists for Muslims in India?

Earlier this week, communal violence erupted in Haryana, spreading to Gurugram and other areas with reports of vandalism. The clashes in Nuh during a religious procession resulted in six deaths. The violence allegedly stemmed from rumors that a cow vigilante, Monu Manesar, involved in previous killings in Bhiwani, would attend the procession. However, as reported, Manesar did not show up at the event and claimed that he has nothing to do with the violence or the killings. Another distressing incident involved an RPF constable who shot and killed four people, including his senior officer and three Muslim passengers, on the Mumbai-bound Jaipur-Mumbai Superfast Express near Palghar railway station. The constable, Chetan Kumar, was later arrested by the Government Railway Police, GRP. These incidents raise concerns about India's internal security mechanism. The lack of police presence during the Haryana clash raises questions about the administration's preparedness and response. Why was the police not present during the Haryana clash? Is it unrealistic to even expect unbiased policing during such violent times? Why did the administration fail to prevent the planned violence from unfolding? Dev Goswami and "Def Savvy," Abhishek Bhalla, delve into the role of the police in internal security and why it often comes under scrutiny.  Also, the RPF incident prompts questions about provisions to handle 'mentally challenged' officers and why such an officer was allowed on duty, if that's the case. And do such hate crimes qualify as terror attacks? Listen in! Produced by Anna Priyadarshini Sound mix by Sachin Dwivedi

The average daily sales of electric-two wheelers slipped into slow lane in June, as the withdrawal of subsidies and the resultant jump in prices apparently forced customers to slam brake on the electric-2 wheeler purchase. So what is the road ahead? Can electric two-wheelers survive without subsidies in India?  Indeed, the fledgling electric two-wheeler segment needs a little push from the government to take off. Its increased adoption will also help the government meet its green goals. Moving on, India's residential real estate market is on a fast lane now, after a sluggish period marked by pandemic. People are loosening their purse strings like never before to purchase luxury homes. But wait. It is not only Mumbai's beach facing areas which are costing a fortune. IT hub Gurgaon too is on the fire.  A recent hike in circle rates too pushed the rates of luxury properties in Gurugram. Let us now shift our gaze to the financial markets. Shares of micro-finance lenders have surged up to 45% over the last six months, even as the benchmark indices added just 2%. We find out the reason behind this rise, and if the current rally will sustain.

Ruchi Kalra of Oxyzo on creating two unicorns in 7 years, spotting gigantic market opportunities, putting profits and cash flow first, and letting go of personal ambitions

First Principles

In 2015 Ruchi Kalra was a partner with McKinsey in their Financial Services practices. In 2016 she, along with four co-founders, started OfBusiness, a business that saw the world in raw materials like plastic, steel, almonds where everyone else saw products like bottles, bridges and cookies. By using tech to disintermediate the various buyers and sellers in the raw material supply chain, OfBusiness wanted to make purchases cheaper and faster. In 2017 Kalra, again with her four co-founders, one of who also happens to be her husband and former colleague, started another business, Oxyzo. What would it do? It would provide credit to businesses that wanted to buy raw materials. Cut to 2023. OfBusiness and Oxyzo are both unicorns. They're also growing at an incredibly fast rate. Kalra is the CEO of Oxyzo, while also doubling up as the CFO of OfBusiness. Last year OfBusiness drove around Rs.7,500 crore of sales, says Kalra. Which is slated to jump to over Rs.20,000 crore this year. In the same period Oxyzo's balance sheet size as a lender will swell from Rs.3,500 crore to Rs.5,000 crore. For these numbers, the two sibling unicorns employ just about 1000 professionals between them. “If I were to do a rough employee-to-valuation calculation, that would place you in, I'm guessing, one of the highest...”Kalra cuts me off. “I think more than the employee-to-valuation, it's more an employee-to-profit calculation.”That's because the B2B siblings also both profitable. Together they are slated to grow their profit after tax (a phrase that's quite rare in the unicorn space) 150% over the last year, to Rs500 crore. Kalra starting at McKinsey after an engineering degree from IIT Delhi and an MBA from ISB is a pattern easy to understand. What's not so easy is how and why she decided to quit after making partner, and start a business in a very different and “uncool” sector.In a candid and reflective conversation, Kalra talks about career choices, business building, market sizing, operational discipline, and her own transformation from an executive to a founder, and finally, leader. It's a masterclass on how starting up later in life often brings perspectives and experiences that are hard for others to replicate.If you'd rather (or perhaps also) read than listen, we have also published the full transcript for this interview on our website. You can click here and read through it. We normally record First Principles episodes inside a professional studio, but this episode was recorded inside one of the meeting rooms at Oxyzo's buzzing Gurugram offices in December. Which is why, in spite of our best efforts, the audio will sound a bit different. A big shout out to my colleague Rahul Choudhary who diligently helps me with the transcripts each fortnight. Lastly, if you have any questions, thoughts, suggestions, or tips, please email them to podcasts@the-ken.com. We might not be able to reply to all of them but we do read every single one of them.

On September 8, 2017, a 7-year-old child was found dead inside a famous school in Gurugram. Soon it became obvious that his death was no accident. The deep cut on his neck and the knife found at the scene pointed to a sinister plot. Until recently, the Haryana police paraded their murderer and declared the case closed. But did they accuse the right person? Did bus conductor Ashok Kumar murder Pradyuman after a failed attempt at sexually assaulting the child? Or was this story far more complicated than it seemed?  Welcome to part 2 of The Mysterious Gurugram School Murder.
