Ankur Rudra of JPMorgan says on a broad-based basis, we do not have the visibility that industry growth is going to double digits yet and hence, as we go towards the end of FY25, we may not have the momentum we need for FY26 to be a double-digit growth year. More specific sectors are doing well. Some sub-segments like financial services, maybe parts of high-tech are doing well. Some of the midcaps are doing well but broad-based recovery is still elusive. If there is any kind of macro impact, that is the main sort of headwind to watch out for. A lot of questions are being raised about whether Indian IT services can catch up with the AI boom or whether services providers will manage to beat the product manufacturers dominant in the US? What is your view? Ankur Rudra: On the AI side of the equation, it is useful to take a step back and remember that tech services companies effectively tend to implement a lot of the new technology that comes by. At the moment, it is AI, before this was cloud. So, to implement AI at an enterprise level, most large enterprises will need IT services companies to help them with doing that to integrate IT and AI into their processes. I think there will be a role for them.

Anushka Sharma and Virat Kohli’s son, Akaay, were seen for the first time during the India vs. Australia Test match in Perth. On Sunday, Anushka was spotted in the stands enthusiastically cheering as Virat scored a century. The camera frequently captured Anushka’s reactions to his impressive performance, and during one such moment, a baby seated behind her caught viewers’ attention. In a widely circulated video, a man was seen holding the baby and trying to lull him to sleep. Fans immediately assumed it was Akaay and excitedly celebrated what they believed was his first public appearance. However, reports from outlets like Times Now have confirmed through sources that the baby in the video is not Akaay. Anushka, who welcomed Akaay earlier this year, has remained fiercely protective of her son’s privacy. She kept her second pregnancy a secret and surprised fans with the announcement of Akaay’s birth via social media. Both Anushka and Virat have made deliberate efforts to shield their children from the public eye. Even in her birthday tribute to Virat, Anushka carefully avoided revealing the faces of both Akaay and their daughter, Vamika.

Today, many students can be seen asking the question, “what more can we do?”, as elite universities seek students who offer much more than educational excellence and come with attributes that are well suited to the environment on the campus. What must the aspiring students do?

Navneet Munot, MD & CEO, HDFC AMC, says in the journey of Sensex from 1,000 to 75,000, we have seen many corrections and a bit of volatility is healthy for the market. Foreigners have lightened their positions and maybe as the results season kick in, maybe after a quarter or so, and people get more faith on the earnings for, let us say, FY26, FY27, FY28, coming back on track. Munot is pretty sure that investors would come back and India will always have some premium. One cannot compare other countries with a lower capital efficiency. India’s capital efficiency has been better, growth prospects have been better and the governance standards are better, and one has to pay some premium for that. What is the total AMC size right now, the AUM? Navneet Munot: It is over Rs 7.5 lakh crore. We have come a long way…
