Faced with regional setbacks, India flexes its new economic muscle - Telegraph India
It has faced repeated diplomatic setbacks in the region, where its traditional influence had been waning in the face of China’s aggressive push. Regional leaders are showing a “high seriousness in understanding the growing economic clout and the place that India is taking on the global stage,” Rao said. “India’s neighbors are certainly interested in autonomy from India and having the option to engage with China and other outside states. But India is a massive economic and political presence that all governments have to at least do business with,” Staniland said. “China continues to flex a lot of economic muscle, there’s no doubt,” Rao said.

Sensex, Nifty to open marginally higher; IT stocks in focus after TCS misses quarterly profit forecast
Indian shares are set to open marginally higher on Friday, with the focus on IT stocks after Tata Consultancy Services kicked off the earnings season for local tech majors on a dour note as it reported a quarterly profit miss. The Gift Nifty was trading at 25,102, as of 8:24 a.m. IST, indicating that the benchmark Nifty 50 will open slightly above its close of 24,998.45 on Thursday. Domestic equities could open higher on the day, but a likely drop in IT stocks following a lower-than-expected quarterly profit from TCS, and hotter-than-expected US inflation reading are set to trigger profit-booking, said two traders. Asian markets were trading marginally higher, ahead of China's fresh fiscal stimulus package expected to be unveiled over the weekend. Foreign institutional investors continue to sell Indian shares for a ninth consecutive session, offloading a net ₹652.33 billion ($7.77 billion) of stocks over the period.

Ratan Tata became favourite customer of THIS Mumbai newspaper vendor due to...
But the death of his favourite customer who subscribed to no less than 14 newspapers makes him rethink which was the stronger blow: the pandemic, or the death of Ratan Tata. "He was a very good man, a messiah for the poor," Singh, who delivered newspapers for Tata for nearly two decades, told PTI. When his association with India's favourite industrialist started in 2001, Tata's address was an apartment in Colaba's Bakhtavar building. But the pandemic changed the reading habits of Ratan Tata too. The household stopped taking newspapers, Singh said, adding that Tata started getting only two newspapers which came in a paper bag from the nearby Tata Group-run Taj Mahal Hotel.
