These 7 private and public banking stocks have an upside of up to 20% in one year, according to analyst
When FPI money returns, there are two parts of the market that tend to draw it first: Financial services broadly, and banks within it. So the very thing that worked against these stocks when the FPIs were selling has started to work for them now that the foreigners are buying. Monday saw the first clear sign of it.
Local partner wanted for Xiaomi ‘home’ coming
The proposal is in the exploratory phase, but the Chinese technology company is set to begin evaluating potential Indian suppliers, according to one of the persons who did not wish to be identified. “It marks a natural progression for Xiaomi as it has committed to expanding beyond air purifiers into categories such as air conditioners, refrigerators and washing machines,” the person said.
AI pushes B-schools to rethink curriculum, skills and leadership training
Artificial intelligence is reshaping management education, prompting business schools such as IIM Kozhikode, IIM Lucknow, ISB and BITSoM to overhaul MBA programmes. The changes include integrating AI across subjects, requiring students to build AI agents, introducing specialised courses and labs, and placing greater emphasis on judgement, ethics and responsible decision-making.
Two former SpaceX engineers built a 25-pound machine that turns seawater into drinking water at the push of a button; here's how it works
It was co-founded by Jonathan Criss and Andrew Harner. Both are former SpaceX engineers. Criss is the company's CEO, and Harner is the COO. They gained engineering experience at SpaceX, and then applied aerospace-level precision and efficiency to the systems. It was reportedly designed for people who are outdoor enthusiasts, boat owners and living in remote locations.
"Fabricated, malicious attacks": India rejects US court order involving officials in Sikh separatist Pannun case
India's Ministry of External Affairs has rejected a lawsuit against its officials filed by Sikh separatist Gurpatwant Singh Pannun. The US court allowed Pannun to pursue service of summons on Indian officials through local courts. Pannun's claims involve alleged assassination plots that remain unproven in civil proceedings. Indian officials firmly deny involvement in these allegations and emphasize legal document protocols.
When AI starts operating machines, the network becomes industrial infrastructure
As manufacturing and automation expand together, networks built to serve billions of people will increasingly serve tens of billions of machines and AI agents as well. Treating those connections as industrial infrastructure, and planning them for that scale, will determine how well physical AI works once deployments move from individual use cases to whole industrial environments.
Surat student wins prize for tool that predicts groundwater
A Surat school student has won a national innovation challenge for developing JALAAKAR, a machine-learning project that estimates groundwater availability using borewell records, rainfall and soil data. Nine other projects were also recognised for innovations in water safety, cybersecurity, road safety, hazardous-environment protection and assistive technology.
Biggest tunnel boring machines coming to Mumbai: Giant TBMs to dig twin Coastal Road tunnels between Kandivli and Malad; check route, project details
Mumbai's 22-km Versova-Dahisar Link Road project has moved closer to the construction stage, with two giant tunnel boring machines undergoing factory tests in Chennai. The 15.6-metre TBMs will excavate 3 km of the proposed 3.9-km twin underground road tunnels between Malad and Charkop, nearly 40 metres below ground. Scheduled for launch in May 2027, the machines will be transported to Mumbai in parts on around 100 trailers. Here is a look at the tunnel project, construction challenges, traffic benefits and environmental concerns.
Quote of the day by John Steinbeck: ‘It is awful not to be loved. It is the worst thing in the world. It makes you mean, violent, and cruel’ - East of Eden novelist on how absence of affection brings out the worst in people
Childhood emotional neglect casts long shadows into adulthood, often fueling feelings of anger and resentment. John Steinbeck's quote sheds light on how a sense of being unloved can foster troubling behaviours. Cal Trask, from 'East of Eden', embodies this struggle, shaped by his mother's abandonment. The recent Netflix adaptation brings these central themes of emotional turmoil to the forefront, underscoring the importance of addressing childhood influences for healthier adult connections.
AI-based cyber threat executing unauthorised fund transfers from banking firms: Cert-In
