Investment Grade Index, a key measure of credit risk for top-rated borrowers, widened by 2.06 basis points to 53.54, marking the highest level of US credit risk in 2025, according to a Bloomberg report. When this index rises, it signals that investors see higher risks in lending to these companies. Meanwhile, the Markit CDX North American High Yield Index, which tracks riskier borrowers, dropped by 0.5 points to 106.4, its lowest point in six months. As per Bloomberg, unlike the investment-grade index, this one falls when credit risk increases, showing that investors are becoming more cautious about lending to lower-rated companies.

Indian banks are advancing more loans than they are incrementally garnering deposits, the latest central bank data showed, pointing to only a partial success for dedicated lender programmes aimed at boosting the deposit base and de-risking the credit environment. The banking sector's incremental loan-to-deposit ratio (LDR) on a three-month rolling basis reached nearly 126% as of February 7, 2025. The incremental LDR stands at 103% so far this fiscal year, pointing to the persisting weakness in deposit mobilisation despite more circumspect advances toward unsecured loans and non-bank financing. As of February 7, credit climbed 11.3% year-on-year, while deposits saw a more modest increase of 10.6%.

Rohit Sharma does not realise the full extent of it, but he has a deeply expressive face. Rohit tries, at all times, to stay calm and remain on an even keel, but his eyes unfailingly give away what’s buzzing in that brain and what is tugging at his heart. You saw a clear demonstration of this earlier in the Champions Trophy when Kuldeep Yadav failed to gather a throw from Virat Kohli. Rohit, who was backing up, let the bowler have a spontaneous spray. Just what are you thinking? Or are you thinking at all? Those seemed the questions. When he meets the ball with the full face of his broad bat and it makes exactly the right sound, Rohit almost freezes. He holds his shape, watching the ball do as he has commanded, piercing the field or clearing it and racing to the boundary. If you commissioned a sculptor to make a statue that used still life to show the poetry in motion of batting, this would be it. And there are times when even Rohit can’t help but stop and admire what he has just done.

Gulmarg found wide echo in the Jammu and Kashmir assembly on Monday with Chief Minister Omar Abdullah saying his government had no role in the event organised at a private hotel and would not have given its permission even if it was not Ramzan. At the centre of the controversy over the show, which Kashmir's chief priest Mirwaiz Umar Farooq dubbed obscene, were designer duo Shivan & Narresh. As the issue over the March 7 fashion walk through the snow meadows in Gulmarg escalated, they expressed deep regret. The Delhi-based designers, whose full names are Shivan Bhatiya and Narresh Kukreja, had showcased their skiwear collection to mark the 15th anniversary of their label. «Our sole intention was to celebrate creativity and the ski & apres-ski lifestyle, without any desire to offend anyone or any religious sentiments.

KKS Murthy, the owner of Bengaluru’s Select Books, who recently passed away aged 95, it was after a gap of many years. He seemed quite unchanged, sitting amid the heaps of books in his now 80-year-old shop off Brigade Road. He recognised me at once and, without asking, directed me to a pile of second-hand cookbooks. I rarely buy physical books now. You can tell me all about the joys of holding a printed book, and I’ll shrug and switch on the e-books app on my tablet or phone, with instant access to thousands of books, new ones instantly available, all easily searchable, with adjustable lighting and size. I also live in a humid Goa valley, which is rotting my old books. But I still love second-hand books. Booksellers like Murthy who specialise in them are rare now, with the places where they congregated — Fort’s pavements in Mumbai, Moore Market in Chennai —mostly cleared away. New & Secondhand, in Mumbai’s Dhobi Talao, is a distant memory. But Murthy kept the flag flying for the kind of place where, instead of the purposive searching of regular bookshops, you could randomly sift through piles and find the one book which, through past owners and shops, was waiting for you.

inflation likely eased below the Reserve Bank of India's medium-term target of 4.0% for the first time in six months on moderating food price rises, a Reuters poll showed, bolstering expectations of interest rate cuts. As fresh winter produce hit markets over the past few months, food items — which make up nearly half of the inflation basket — saw a sustained slowdown in price increases. That marked a welcome reprieve from supply disruptions last year when unpredictable monsoons and intense heat waves sent food prices soaring, often by double digits.
