Shortly after, laborers allegedly discovered metal coins that appeared to be of historical significance. Some individuals even asserted that gold and silver coins from the Mughal period had surfaced. Word of the discovery quickly spread, drawing curious villagers from nearby areas who hoped to uncover hidden treasure. The situation was further intensified by references to Burhanpur in Chhaava, which shed light on the city's rich Mughal past, including its association with a major military campaign led by Chhatrapati Sambhaji Maharaj and an alleged «gold mine.»

The «misuse» of a 20-year-old foreign exchange rule, originally intended to make life easier for young Indians attending foreign universities, is believed to have drawn the attention of the Reserve Bank of India (RBI), sources told ET. In 2003, the central bank allowed students going abroad to study to be treated as 'non-resident Indians' (NRIs). The regulation was issued to primarily help students who take up jobs in a foreign land to supplement their income. Until then, they were considered 'residents'. Since 'residents' are required under the law to send their foreign earnings back home, the rule was meant to shield working students from unwittingly breaching the Foreign Exchange Management Act (FEMA) which was enforced in 2000.

Asteroid 2024 YR4 will dangerously hit Earth in 2032, world's largest space agency NASA has now issued a clarification and confirmed it is not going to ruin our planet. When scientists detected this space rock in December 2024, all the alarms went off. Asteroid 2024 YR4 is classified as a near-Earth asteroid, meaning its orbit brings it close to Earth’s region of the Solar System. Initially estimated to be 130 to 300 feet (40 to 90 meters) wide, it was thought to have a slight chance of impacting Earth on December 22, 2032, when first discovered. However, continued observations through early 2025 led NASA to confirm that 2024 YR4 poses no significant impact risk to Earth in 2032 or in the future.

Indian mutual fund industry, one that turns the very concept of passive investing on its head. Fund houses have discovered a convenient loophole in Sebi’s regulatory framework and are enthusiastically exploiting it. Sebi sensibly limits AMCs to launching just one actively managed fund in each plain category. This prevents the proliferation of near-identical products and reduces investor confusion. One large-cap fund, one mid-cap fund, and so on. It’s a straightforward approach that benefits everyone. Except that there’s a catch. This limitation doesn’t apply to passive funds. If there’s an index, a fund based on it can be launched. Therein lies the opportunity that fund houses have pounced upon—commission custom indices and launch ‘passive’ funds tracking them. The result? An absurd multiplication of indices. The National Stock Exchange now offers at least 120 equity indices, while the Bombay Stock Exchange has at least 64. While not all are created specifically for fund houses, they are readily available for AMCs. We now have indices with names like ‘Alpha Quality Value Low Volatility 30’, ‘EV & New Age Automotive’, ‘ESG’, ‘Enhanced ESG’, and my personal favourite, ‘ESG Sector Leaders’. This isn’t innovation; it’s simply clutter masquerading as choice.
