Navy not keen on HAL for choppers

NEW DELHI: The navy is not in favour of an offer by Hindustan Aeronautics Ltd (HAL) for an upcoming Rs 21,000 crore Make in India contract as its chopper does not meet requirements and there is a dire need to establish alternative capability in the private sector to manufacture modern aircraft.Sources said that the naval version of the Advanced Light Helicopter (ALH) that is being offered does not meet basic qualitative requirements and is unsuitable for the role required, including urgent Search and Rescue (SAR) missions at sea. As reported by ET, the naval utility helicopter (NUH) plan - originally planned for the private sector under the strategic partnership model - is going through a tussle after HAL entered the fray and has requested the government to be included."The ALH has a rigid rotor head and has been designed for high altitude operations, where it is very good at. The problem is that the design limits it in terms of the blade folding capability. In missions such as SA

Import curbs on television sets: Companies may take licence route for big-screen models

KOLKATA: TV makers Samsung, Xiaomi and TCL don’t immediately plan to set up new production lines for large-screen premium models and will instead seek licences to import them as the limited demand for these products does not justify local manufacturing, said people familiar with the matter. LG and Sony, too, are evaluating the licence route for the 75-inch-plus premium models which are at present imported.Industry executives are, however, aware that these licences may not be issued easily, especially for imports from China. They fear that this development will impact availability of highend TV sets just ahead of the crucial festive season.The government on Tuesday re-introduced import curbs on TV sets and put them on the restricted list for the first time in 20 years with the objective of boosting local manufacturing. Companies will now have to apply for a licence to import TV sets.TCL India general manager Mike Chen said the company is already in touch with the Directorate General of

Not allowed WhatsApp to go live for full-scale UPI operations: RBI tells Supreme Court

New Delhi: The Reserve Bank of India has told the Supreme Court that it hadn’t permitted WhatsApp to go live with full-scale payment services on the Unified Payments Interface (UPI) system. The banking regulator said it was concerned that WhatsApp was storing some payment data elements outside India beyond the timelines permitted in its June 26, 2019 circular. The central bank said it had advised the National Payment Corporation of India (NPCI), which manages the UPI system, to not permit WhatsApp to launch full-scale payment services till the time it fully complied with the rules.The RBI made the comments in its response to a court notice, seeking its stand on a petition by an NGO which wanted to stop WhatsApp from carrying out trials of its payment service in India before it complied with local regulations.The RBI said in a letter dated November 1, it had advised the NCPI to ensure that the payment data were not stored by WhatsApp outside India beyond the permitted time or in an encr

MUMBAI: Covid-19 has sparked political battle in Pune as the cases in the city soar to almost three times that of Mumbai.Amid the BJP and NCP-Shiv Sena clashes, Maharashtra chief minister Uddhav Thackeray on Thursday held a review meeting with district officials in Pune. The visit has been overshadowed by political wrangling as the BJP-run Pune Municipal Corporation (PMC) expressed its inability to pay its share for building three mega covid health centres in the city. The Maharashtra government had said that the PMC, Pune Pimpri Chinchwad Municipal Corporation (PCMC), Pune Metropolitan Region Development Authority (PMRDA) and the state government would pay up Rs 300 crores that is going to be used to build three jumbo covid hospitals in Pune.

Covid deepens India's infra troubles

By Vrishti BeniwalInfrastructure projects in India are infamous for cost overruns and delays, and they are set for even more pain as the coronavirus sweeps through Asia’s third-largest economy.Construction of everything from roads to ports were behind schedule by an average three-and-a-half years, according to an analysis by the Statistics Ministry. Costs of 1,682 projects have shot up by a combined Rs 4 lakh crore over their life cycle, the ministry’s latest update as of April shows.A nationwide lockdown for more than two months since March 25 and continuing restrictions to contain the Covid-19 pandemic are the newest threat. The casualties are expected to be flagship projects such as the 3,300-kilometer freight rail network to connect India’s eastern and western regions.Conceived in 2006, the state-run Dedicated Freight Corridor Corp. of India Ltd. was originally scheduled to complete the work by 2016, but has missed several deadlines.

NPCI looks to limit UPI dominance by single third-party application, may restrict share of transactions

Mumbai: The National Payments Corporation of India (NPCI) is thinking of ways to limit the Unified Payment Interface’s (UPI) dependence on any single third-party application. It proposes to do this by restricting the share of transactions of any single payment company, people familiar with the matter said. NPCI owns and operates UPI in the capacity of a not-for-profit “umbrella body”.The burgeoning UPI ecosystem is currently dominated by Google Pay, Paytm, Walmart-owned PhonePe and Amazon Pay, who together control over 90% market share. ET reported in September last year that NPCI could cap the share of transactions at 33% of the overall market share, to insulate the broader UPI ecosystem against any systemic collapse.The discussions have gathered steam over the last couple of months, the people said, and NPCI has held closed-door meetings with payment service provider (PSP) banks, members of UPI’s steering committee and select third-party players to discuss the implementation scope an

Third-party sellers flag Amazon's data policy, say company pushing in-house brands

BENGALURU: Third-party sellers have demanded transparency from ecommerce company Amazon on its data practices as well as alleged preferential treatment for in-house brands.Five small sellers — across categories like fashion, toys, packaged foods and general merchandise — have highlighted these concerns to Amazon India, they told ET, without getting a clear-cut response or legal assurance. The All India Online Vendors Association (AIOVA) has also raised similar concerns with the Competition Commission of India. The development comes at a time when small sellers are becoming increasingly dependent on online channels for sales in light of the economic disruption due to the Covid-19 outbreak. It also comes in the backdrop of Amazon founder Jeff Bezos’s admission to the US Congress on Wednesday that he could not guarantee it was not accessing third-party seller data to develop its own competing products. The ecommerce behemoth has in the past denied such allegations. Amazon has more than 50

Eye phone or a smart idea for smartphone companies, may be the next market disruptor

NEW DELHI: Smartphones as well as laptops and tablets are 21st century essentials. According to Statista, currently 3.5 billion people globally own smartphones. That works out to nearly 45% of the world’s population, which is 7.8 billion. The percentage of smartphone users will go up substantially every year.Now, look at another statistic. Vision Council of America estimates that over 4 billion people in the world use either glasses or contact lenses. That’s more than 51% of the global population.There’s no data on how many smartphone users wear glasses or use contacts. But it’s likely to be a very substantial number.Now consider three facts.1. Vision problems typically are more common as a person ages.2. Purchasing power typically also goes up as a person grows older or working.3. Researchers studying what is called the digital eye syndrome (vision problems associated with prolonged exposure to digital screens) have noted that people with eyeglasses or contact lenses are likely to suf

NPPA unable to regulate remdesivir sale

NEW DELHI: India has not set a price for anti-viral remdesivir because it has been approved only as an experimental therapy for Covid-19, leaving the field open for black marketers, who are said to be selling the drug for as much as 10 times the actual price.The Drug Controller General of India said in June that remdesivir could be included in the clinical management protocol for Covid-19 as an experimental therapy for restricted emergency use on patients.According to the National Pharmaceutical Pricing Authority, remdesivir has not been notified as a drug and hence it cannot regulate the price of one of the most expensive Covid-19 treatments in India.The NPPA can only control prices of devices and products that are defined as drugs under the Drugs and Cosmetics Act.

From Irfan Khan to Rishi Kapoor to Sushant Singh Rajput to Jagdeep aka Surma Bhopali to Saroj Khan, 2020 has taken a toll on us emotionally leaving us with some of the best performances by these stars. Mother India and Naya Daur actress, Kumkum breathed her last at the age of 86. Born Zaibunnisa, Kumkum was a popular face in the 50s and 60s. Being a part of multiple hit films, Kumkum had made a mark with her acting and impeccable performances in the industry. There are no reports regarding the reason behind her demise, but Naved Jafri took to his Twitter to announce the tragic news. Take a look at his tweet. We have lost another gem. I have known her since I was a kid and she was family, a superb artist and a fantastic human being, innalillahe wa innailaihe raajeoon. Rest in peace kunkum aunty ???? #ripkumkum #kumkum pic.twitter.com/CT60alQbOC — Naved Jafri (@NavedJafri_BOO) July

Wall St falls as virus hits consumer confidence

Wall Street closed lower on Tuesday as investors fretted about weakening consumer confidence, disappointing financial results and as investors worried about wrangling in the U.S. Congress over a coronavirus aid plan.Weighing heavily on the Dow were industrial conglomerate 3M Co, down 4.8%, after it reported a second-quarter plunge in demand across its businesses and McDonald's Corp, which fell 2.5%, after a surprisingly big drop in global same-store sales.Data released in the morning showed U.S. consumer confidence ebbed in July as coronavirus infections flared up across the country.As they waited on a stimulus package agreement and for quarterly reports in one of the busiest weeks in earnings season, investors were also anticipating the U.S. Federal Reserve's Wednesday wrap-up of its two day policy meeting."It's probably not a bad place to take some profits and rebuild some liquidity because any of those three events could lead to volatility," said Sameer Samana,

Indian Navy steps up Indian Ocean operations

New Delhi: A strong message has been sent to China with deployment of Indian Navy in strength in the Indian Ocean Region, with top sources saying there is no reason for concern as far as PLA presence is concerned and the strategic Malacca strait is being kept under strict observation.As reported by ET, the navy and air force was pressed into action immediately after the Galwan clash on June 15, with sources saying operational warships have been at sea to consolidate presence in the Indian Ocean Region (IOR).Sources said that coordinated action has been taken up by the three forces given the situation on the Line of Actual Control (LAC) and daily joint meetings are being conducted to monitor the China situation.

Nepal: Prachanda holds meeting without Oli

New Delhi: The China-brokered peace deal between Nepal’s Prime Minister KP Sharma Oli and Pushpa Kamal Dahal “Prachanda” encountered severe turbulence as Nepal Communist Party (NCP) executive chairperson Prachanda unilaterally convened a meeting of the powerful standing committee at the premier’s official residence in Kathmandu in Oli’s absence.The 45-member standing committee of NCP was scheduled to meet on Tuesday morning, but the meeting was postponed for the ninth time.

Standing committee members close to Oli did not attend the meeting.Oli had postponed the meeting without consulting Prachanda, ET has learned. About 25 standing committee members were present in the meeting. The two factions have hardened their positions once again. The Dahal faction is now demanding that Oli resign as party chair. Oli, however, has threatened to take stern steps if he is pressed to stepping down.Earlier, NCP vice c

Akshay Kumar’s Sooryavanshi co-actor Karthika Sahoo sells vegetables to make ends meet

Image
The film production came to a halt even before the nationwide lockdown was announced. After four months, the film industry is slowly planning to get back to its feet and resume shooting. However, owing to the prevailing situation, many actors have been finding it difficult to sustain the lockdown. Actor Katrika Sahoo from Odisha has started selling vegetables to make ends meet. While talking to a news agency, Sahoo said that at the age of 17 he went to Mumbai to try his luck in Bollywood. He worked as a bodyguard to celebrities like Amitabh Bachchan and Sachin Tendulkar and later landed roles in action sequences of several movies. He will also be seen in a fight sequence with Akshay Kumar in his upcoming film Sooryavanshi. Before the lockdown, Karthika had moved to Odisha and was living on his savings. However, due to a medical emergency in the family and lack of work thereafter, he resorted to selling vegetables. ALSO READ: Akshay Kumar to release two films and shoot three films

Kotak Bank has always been a shock absorber

Anything that is done to strengthen the balance sheet in this environment has to be looked at in a positive sense, says Krishnan ASV, sector lead, SBICAP Securities.Is the market being a little unnecessarily grim on Kotak Mahindra numbers? In this environment, we are not necessarily looking at this as a bottom. We are looking at a resilient balance sheet and the more you can shrink them during these times like providing for what is likely to come in the next say 12-18 months, that only augurs well. Plus they have plans to raise fresh capital and so I think there are these four or five banks in the private sector space which have been doing all these right things in terms of at least preparing or just bracing themselves for what is likely to come post Covid moratorium. I would not necessarily take it as a disappointment if the PAT is lower for one quarter here and there. I would look more directionally, if the balance sheet outcomes are stronger than P&L actually. A lot is still to

July brings cheer to job seekers; V-shaped revival likely in employment if trend continues

MUMBAI: Is India seeing a sharp recovery in the jobs market? Early indicators in July suggest green shoots in some employment segments with a rise in active and fresh openings following on from a trough in June. For the first time in four months, the Indian job market has seen an increase in open positions with close to 150,000 listed in July, going by data from official company pages on LinkedIn and direct postings on top job boards. That’s a recovery from June, which saw a dip in jobs to 130,000 open positions from 200,000 in April and 167,000 in May, according to an analysis by specialist staffing firm Xpheno for ET. Nearly 65% of these active openings in July were either published or refreshed over the last two weeks, another indicator of companies resuming hiring activity after a pause during the lockdown to control Covid-19 and the consequent economic slump. Early July data show all sectors are adding active openings to listings by 12-18% from June levels. 77210919“If the trend c

Stiff competition awaits Reliance Jio as it takes 'made-in-India' 5G tech to the world

Mumbai: Reliance Jio will face stiff challenges as it enters the 5G club and offers its product to operators globally, with rivals Huawei, Nokia and Ericsson ahead in developing the technology and in filing patents, experts said.“Jio is the latest entrant in 5G technology and its competitors like Huawei, Ericsson and Qualcomm have had a head start. It will take Jio some time to catch up with its rivals,” said Nirupam Lodha, a partner at L&L Partners who specialises in patent laws. Reliance Industries chairman Mukesh Ambani said in mid-July that unit Jio had developed its own 5G technology, which supports faster mobile connectivity.“This made-in-India 5G solution will be ready for trials as soon as 5G spectrum is available and can be ready for field deployment next year,” Ambani said. “Once Jio’s 5G solution is proven at India-scale, Jio Platforms would be well positioned to be an exporter of 5G solutions to other telecom operators globally, as a complete managed service.”Jio, which

8 mn withdraw Rs 30K PF money in Apr-July

NEW DELHI: As much as Rs 30,000 crore has been withdrawn in under four months starting April by 8 million subscribers of the Employee Provident Fund Organisation. EPFO manages a corpus of Rs 10 lakh crore built on mandatory contributions from nearly 60 million salaried people and their employers. The huge outgo is likely to impact the fund’s earnings in FY21, officials said. EPFO officials told ET the amount withdrawn between April and the third week of July is much more than the usual outgo seen over similar periods, and that pandemic-related job losses, salary cuts and medical expenses explain this substantial increase. “Of the total withdrawals, nearly 3 million beneficiaries withdrew upwards of Rs 8,000 crore under the Covid window while the rest Rs 22,000 crore was a general withdrawal by 5 million EPFO subscribers, mainly as medical advance,” an EPFO official said. 77210733A special Covid window for withdrawals was announced by finance minister Nirmala Sitharaman soon after India
