Policy pre-requisites for corporate earnings growth are being ignored T he fourth quarter of the last financial year, 2014-15, was an unmitigated disaster for Indian companies. Even after adjusting for extraordinary items, profits for the universe of the top 1,600 companies listed on the stock exchanges shrank by 19 per cent year on year. Profit growth for the blue chips on the Nifty was not very different; for the Sensex, the fall was around nine per cent. (All these numbers, and those that follow, exclude banks and financial companies, as is the convention. They are also marginally sensitive to exactly how you account for one-time write-offs, and so on.) Over the entire financial year, Sensex companies recorded no profit growth -- the first time that’s happened in a decade and half, if you exclude the crisis year of 2008-09. We’re in the middle of the season in which results are declared for the first quarter of this financial year, 2015-16, and the early news is not ... » Learn More about Indian economy recovering?

Indian apparel exporters have huge potential to tap in Mexico, according to Indian Ambassador to Mexico Manpreet Vohra. Speaking at a virtual business-to-business meeting organised by the Apparel Export Promotion Council, the Ambassador said bilateral trade between the two countries was on a rising trend.

Our trade is also fairly well balanced with only about $1 billion in India’s favour,” Mr. Vohra said. The Ambassador said that one of the most important products in the bilateral trade was garments and textiles. India was among Mexico’s top suppliers in this segment.

A day after the Election Commission of India announced the election schedule for Tamil Nadu and three other States, the district administration on Saturday began the process of setting up a control room at the Collectorate. District Collector K. Rajamani had asked a District Revenue Officer-level official to head the control room and that was most likely to be headed by the DRO in-charge of land acquisition for the Coimbatore airport expansion project. The administration was in the process of setting up phone lines with toll-free number. Once complaints start pouring in, the control room staff, who would manage the room 24x7 in turns, would forward the complaints to the DRO-cadre officers. Mr. Rajamani said the administration had calculated that it would need additional 1,300-odd polling booths in the ensuing election to ensure it could enforce COVID-19 safety protocol. Of the 1,300-odd booths, 900-odd booths will be in the same polling station. The rest would be at a premises ... » Learn More about Work to set up election control room begins in Coimbatore

UT administration has decided to frame guidelines for installing electric vehicle (EV) charging stations on public land in the city. UT adviser Manoj Parida said Debendra Dalai, director, environment, has been made nodal officer to coordinate with departments for setting up stations across the city. “As the process involves different departments, Dalai was made the nodal officer,” he said. The need to minimise carbon emissions and other pollutants call for shift to electric vehicles . However, for this to happen effectively, there is a requirement of installing strategically located charging stations and infrastructure for the ease of consumers. This, in turn, throws up the challenge of managing the increasing electricity consumption and pricing effectively through a self-regulated grid, without making a compromise on network operational performance. All this calls for formulating a comprehensive strategy to make adoption of EVs viable.
