MSCI rejig: Swiggy, Mazagon Dock among 4 entrants; $850 mn inflows likely
The MSCI India Standard Index rebalancing will be announced on August 7 after market hours, the brokerage said in a note. The August 2025 rejig may include up to four additions, drawing estimated inflows of $850 million, it added. The changes will take effect from August 27.
Swiggy is the only 'high' probable stock that could enter the global index aggregator's MSCI India Standard Index. The counter of the food delivery giant has recently come under focus as Rapido is gearing up to enter the food delivery space. Rapido is expected to charge a commission rate of 8-15 per cent from restaurant partners, which is significantly lower than Zomato and Swiggy's 21–22 per cent blended rates.
Shares of Swiggy tumbled 33 per cent so far this year, compared to a 4.8 per cent advance in the benchmark Nifty50 index. The food delivery firm is expected to bring flows worth $385 million, the report said.
Meanwhile, the shares of Mazagaon Dock and Hitachi Energy are under JM Financial's 'Medium Probability' list for the MSCI index inclusion. Mazagaon Dock scrip has cooled off after it saw a rally in May on the back of India's increased geopolitical tensions with Pakistan amid 'Operation Sindoor'.
The stock of the shipbuilding company has fallen 10 per cent in June so far, after a 14 per cent rise in the month before. So far this year, the shares of Mazagaon Dock have surged by 40 per cent. Mazagaon Dock and Hitachi Energy are likely to bring inflows worth $187 million and $165 million, respectively.
Waaree Energies is under the 'Waaree Energies' for its inclusion in the MSCI India Standard Index. With a market capitalisation of ₹80,506.81 crore, the stock has been under consolidation since the end of April. In the year so far, the stock has been almost flat with a 1.8 per cent decline.
Earlier, in the May semi-annual review, MSCI included Coromandel International Ltd. and FSN E-Commerce Ventures Ltd., the parent company of Nykaa, in its MSCI Global Standard Index. There were no deletions from the Global Standard Index, and the changes took place as of the close of May 30, 2025.

India, South Korea resolve to set new industrial ambition in high-tech sectors
Agency: PTI New Delhi, Aug 16 (PTI) India and South Korea on Saturday resolved to expand their strategic partnership by setting new 'industrial ambition" in the areas of semiconductor, defence, clean energy, and artificial intelligence. Ways to ramp up the overall bilateral cooperation figured prominently in talks between External Affairs Minister S Jaishankar and his visiting South Korean counterpart, Cho Hyun. The Ministry of External Affairs (MEA) said Jaishankar and Hyun agreed to set new industrial ambitions, especially in high-tech sectors such as AI, semiconductors, clean energy, shipbuilding, and the defence industry. The ministers took stock of bilateral cooperation, including in the political, security, trade and economy, technological, and people-to-people domains, it said. In a social media post, Jaishankar described the talks as 'productive". 'Held productive discussions on advancing our bilateral cooperation in trade, manufacturing, maritime and people-to-people exchanges as well as new opportunities in AI, semiconductors, clean energy and defence," he said. Jaishankar said he and Hyun also exchanged perspectives on the Indo-Pacific region and contemporary global developments. 'Appreciated our deepening convergences and growing engagement as our Special Strategic Partnership completes 10 years," he added. In his opening remarks at the meeting, Jaishankar also thanked Seoul for its condemnation of the horrific April 22 Pahalgam terror attack. The external affairs minister also made a mention of Seoul's support to an Indian parliamentary delegation that visited South Korea in the aftermath of Operation Sindoor.

Did Swiggy increase their platform fee from ₹12 to ₹14? Report reveals...
India food delivery aggregator Swiggy had raised its platform fee from ₹ 12 to ₹ 14 in certain pockets only on 15 August due to increase in demand of orders, people familiar with the development told However, as of 16 August, the platform fee remains ₹ 12 across India. A platform fee is a charge that a company like Swiggy, Zomato, or Uber adds to each transaction to cover the cost of maintaining and operating its platform. The platform fee of Rs14 per food delivery order was inclusive of Goods and Services Tax (GST), the Economic Times reported. In comparison, Zomato applies a platform fee of ₹ 10, excluding GST. Swiggy was the first to introduce this fee in April 2023, starting at ₹ 2, and has gradually increased it to ₹ 12 (pre-GST) as part of its strategy to strengthen unit-level profitability. Zomato adopted a similar approach, though its most recent fee revision occurred in October 2024. While these fees represented a small portion of the typical ₹ 500– ₹ 600 order value seen on food delivery platforms, they significantly contributed to improving overall profit margins for the companies, the ET report said. In the April–June period, Swiggy's net loss soared to ₹ 1,197 crore, double the figure from the same quarter last year. The company also reported a net cash outflow of ₹ 1,053 crore after accounting for its operating, investing, and financing activities, ET report mentioned. Despite the deepening losses, Swiggy saw a 54% year-on-year growth in operating revenue, which reached ₹ 4,961 crore. Amid this, new competition is emerging in the food delivery space. Ride-hailing firm Rapido has launched Ownly, its own food delivery platform, which is currently operational in select areas of Bengaluru, including Koramangala, HSR Layout, and BTM Layout. Ownly aims to challenge established players like Swiggy and Zomato by offering lower commission rates to restaurant partners between 8% and 15%, compared to the 16% to 30% typically charged by the incumbents.
