Bharti Enterprises plans to acquire a 24.5% stake in UK's BT Group for around $4 billion from the British firm's largest investor Altice UK, marking the Sunil Mittal-led company's second major international foray after venturing into Africa in 2010. This will make it the largest shareholder in BT, formerly British Telecom. In a statement Monday, Bharti said it has no intention of making an offer to buy control of Britain's largest broadband and mobile firm. Bharti is also not seeking a board seat, chairman Sunil Mittal told reporters. The purchase will be made by Bharti Global, which is the international arm of Bharti Enterprises, through Bharti Televentures. As per the terms of the deal, Bharti Televentures has acquired a 9.99% stake in BT Group's issued capital via open market trade. It will buy the remaining 14.51% after getting regulatory clearances. Mittal expects the deal to close in the coming months.

India needs to raise its game quickly and look beyond production-linked incentive (PLI) schemes to establish itself as a global manufacturing powerhouse and create millions of new jobs, say experts. Time, they say, is ripe for the next wave of big-bang policy measures from the government to ensure that India's efforts to bring back local manufacturing in a big way pays off. Some suggested steps include creating world-class, export-oriented industrial hubs (where India is a laggard), ringing in favourable tax treaties with the country's top trading partners, bolstering logistics infrastructure (including connectivity with ports), encouraging sector-specific skill development, targeting high-volume local production of capital goods and investing in smart manufacturing facilities. These enablers, they say, are critical to boost India's value proposition and getting the biggest global players to invest top dollars in mega manufacturing capacities in critical sectors such as automobiles, renewable energy, telecoms equipment, electronics and batteries — more so in a changing geopolitical scenario when global companies are increasingly looking to cut their dependence on China and eying India as an alternate manufacturing hub.

Sunil Mittal on Monday said the conglomerate's decision to acquire a 24.5 per cent stake in BT Group marks a «good, long-term investment» and an «attractive buy», citing the British company's strong portfolio of home broadband, fibre, mobile and enterprise offerings. Mittal, a telecom industry stalwart, exuded confidence about the investment and business prospects of BT and indicated that while the priority, for now, is to understand the company and the UK market in-depth, «if there are more opportunities in Europe, we will certainly be open to it in future». On Bharti's decision to buy a 24.5 per cent stake in BT Group — a move that would make it the single largest shareholder in Britain's largest broadband and mobile company — Mittal said: «I think this is a very attractive buy… the UK and European telecom companies are trading at low multiples...so given the cash flow expectations of BT, we believe this is going to be a good investment, and it is a long-term investment.

Air transport is the only one direct option, but is useful only for expensive or perishable goods. The bulk of goods are delivered via Suez and Black Sea ports (Novorossiysk or others). As a result, the cargo travels triple the distance and several overloads along the route. High transport and logistics costs hinder the competitiveness of goods and the volume of mutual trade. Until now, the volume of mutual trade between India, Russia and Central Asia has been not so large (for example, $3.2 billion between India and five Central Asian countries in 2022). The obstacle is over huge delivery distances through the ports of the Black Sea or the Far East (7-10 thousand km).

Aniruddha Sarkar, Chief Investment Officer & Portfolio Manager, Quest Investment Advisors, points out that valuations have become very rich across the board in the market. So, it has become very important not to get into companies where there is big froth. Look for companies with a mismatch of valuation and the underlying value. Within that, the easy part of the money has been made. In the last 24 to 36 months. all of us have made money in the market, some have made more, some have made less but the easy money has gone. Sarkar says that while he is keeping 4-5% cash, investors can keep more than 8% to 10% cash because he does not see any major correction in the market. You have been in the quest of outperformance or alpha. How have the last few months been for you – challenging or okay? You have navigated comfortably because the clamour for a massive correction is getting louder, but have you raised your cash levels? How are you approaching this? Aniruddha Sarkar: The last couple of months have not been very easy for all of us in the market and typically, what happens is when the markets are volatile, that is when the real test of a portfolio happens. Thankfully in the last couple of months, amid elections, budget, whatever is happening in Bangladesh, what is happening in the rest of the world, in the Middle East, our portfolios have done well and that is because we have been trying to focus on very few sectors, looking at companies within those sectors where earnings are supporting the valuations.
