markets Digital Platform Mobile Experts PAM social "When will govt agencies intervene?", Kunal Kamra hits at Ola again, urges Nitin Gadkari to step in

Kunal Kamra took to X (formerly Twitter) to express his frustration over the poor condition of Ola Electric scooters and urged Union Minister Nitin Gadkari to intervene. In his post, Kamra highlighted the plight of Indian customers, criticising the lack of accountability from Ola. He emphasised how customers are struggling to commute and are being forced to take bad loans due to issues that, according to him, are the company’s responsibility. His post was triggered by a complaint from Rangraj Nagar in Solapur, where several Ola scooters were reportedly found in poor condition. The user expressed outrage over the absence of qualified engineers or technicians at the site, stating that such negligence is unacceptable given that customers have invested their hard-earned money into these products. Tagging prominent figures including Ola Electric’s CEO Bhavish Aggarwal, Prime Minister Narendra Modi, and Minister Gadkari, Kamra's post urged government agencies to intervene and address the grievances.

CAG is set to conclude in November, and a high-ranking official with close ties to the Modi administration is likely to be chosen to oversee the Centre's financial oversight. While Murmu's position requires a new appointee, three other pivotal roles — the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) Governor, Chief Economic Adviser (CEA), and Securities and Exchange Board of India (SEBI) Chairperson — offer the possibility of reappointment. Following Murmu’s tenure, attention will shift to the RBI’s leadership. Shaktikanta Das, who became RBI Governor in December 2018 after the sudden resignation of Urjit Patel, is nearing the end of his second term. Das, a former bureaucrat known for maintaining strong government relations and navigating India’s financial landscape smoothly, may either continue in this role or pass the mantle, with a decision expected in December.

markets FIVE BLOCK Digital Booking Experts PAM IRCTC train ticket booking: How to book Tatkal tickets without money getting blocked, step-by-step guide to follow

Tatkal tickets on the day before the train's departure from the originating station. The booking window opens at 10 am for AC classes (2A/3A/CC/EC/3E) and 11 am for non-AC coaches (SL/FC/2S). For example, if you want to book a Tatkal ticket for a train departing on November 1, you can book it on October 30 at the specified times. Now imagine you need to book Tatkal train tickets for a family of five. This could cost thousands of rupees. Additionally, if you specify a particular berth, such as a lower berth, and it's not available, your money will be blocked for four to five days before being automatically refunded. The main concern is not the refund itself, but the time it takes to receive it. To save both time and money when booking Tatkal tickets, consider using the autopay option where you can use UPI (OTM)/debit card (OTM)/credit card (OTM) to pay for the tickets using a mandate. These autopay options are available on the IRCTC iPay payment gateway.

markets COST UPS trends Trade travelers International Q2 saw normalisation of growth in IndiGo; expect lower double-digit growth in Q3: Pieter Elbers

Pieter Elbers, CEO, IndiGo, says the growth is pretty much what was expected and follows the usual seasonal trends. After the big jump after COVID, things are settling back into a more typical seasonal rhythm, similar to what we experienced in the Indian market before COVID, but with a lot more travelers, which is great for revenue. On the cost side, IndiGo faced a peak in AOGs due to global supply chain problems and some engine issues we've encountered, which has resulted in extra costs. IndiGo has been consistently beating market estimates. But for the quarter gone by, the story seems to be different. There is a drop in margin. This is one of the slowest quarterly growth you have reported in 12 quarters. What has led to this decline? Was it traffic? Was it an issue with aircraft? Could you just share more light on that? Pieter Elbers: Let me take a step back and see how India has basically recovered in terms of traffic post COVID.

Manufacturers led by BYD Co. have opened a new front in the fight for dominance of the auto industry by redefining “Made in China” as a global symbol of luxury for the electric-vehicle age. After challenging the likes of Mercedes and BMW AG in their home market, they’re taking the fight to Europe and making inroads. The clearest sign of their impact came on Friday, when Mercedes reported its weakest profitability since the former cars-to-trucks conglomerate broke itself up in 2021 to become more nimble. Porsche AG, the maker of the 911 sports car, said it’s weighing cost cuts and reviewing its model lineup after a demand slump in China caused earnings to plunge.

«So, levels per se, if we are expecting Nifty to hold above 24,440, then we could see round about 25,000 levels. And for the support, 24,150 would be important to watch out for,» says Shivangi Sarda, Motilal Oswal Financial Services. What is your expectation, is the worst over and from here on, we are expecting a Diwali cheer or it is still a bit sceptical at the moment? Shivangi Sarda: Of course, we have seen that some sort of a pressure was there the previous week, but we have seen a good pullback move today and we have somewhere got stuck at 24,440 levels, which is a crucial hurdle over here. So, once this level gets crossed, it is going to be somewhat of an end of the pain that we have seen in the last four weeks. But overall, we are seeing good buying interest emerging right at the start of this festive week. So, it is a good sign.
