India's Tata Motors to invest up to $4 billion over 5 years for EVs, new cars

(Reuters) -India's Tata Motors plans to invest up to 350 billion rupees ($4.1 billion) over the next five years, aiming to cement its position as the country's top electric vehicle maker amid rising competition and a push to adopt clean cars. The maker of the Nexon and Punch sport utility vehicles will nearly double its portfolio from eight models to 15, launch more EVs and compressed natural gas cars as well as enhance the vehicles' technology features, according to its investor day presentation released on Monday. India, the world's third-largest car market, is planning stricter emission norms starting 2027 and wants EVs to form 30% of all car sales by 2030. Tata Motors did not share its investment plan for the current year to March 2026, but said last month the domestic businesses, including commercial vehicles, would have a capital expenditure of about 80 billion rupees. Intense competition in the combustion engine market has allowed rival Mahindra & Mahindra to overtake Tata. China's MG Motor has also challenged Tata's EV dominance with the "Windsor" model, outselling its products since late last year. Yet, Tata Motors maintained its target of 16% market share by March 2027, aiming to reach 18%-20% by March 2030. ($1 = 85.6310 Indian rupees)

India Gas Engine Industry Report 2025: Shift Toward Decentralized and On-site Power Generation, Growing Demand for Clean and Reliable Power - Trends, Opportunities and Forecasts 2021-2031

The India Gas Engine Market presents key opportunities in the shift towards decentralized, environmentally friendly power solutions driven by India's urbanization, rising electricity demand, and regulatory push for clean energy. Gas engines, leveraging natural and renewable fuels, offer reliable, low-emission alternatives to traditional power sources. Indian Gas Engine Market Dublin, June 09, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The "India Gas Engine Market, By Region, Competition, Forecast & Opportunities, 2021-2031F" has been added to offering. The India Gas Engine Market was valued at USD 125 Million in 2025, and is expected to reach USD 217 Million by 2031, rising at a CAGR of 9.51% Gas engines, which utilize fuels like natural gas, biogas, landfill gas, or hydrogen, offer an efficient and environmentally friendly alternative to traditional diesel or petrol engines. Their application spans industrial, commercial, and residential power generation, including use in combined heat and power (CHP) systems. The increasing demand for clean energy, driven by environmental regulations and the integration of renewable fuels, is positioning gas engines as a key solution for reliable and low-emission power. Their operational flexibility in continuous and backup modes, along with compatibility with cleaner fuels, supports India's transition toward sustainable energy systems. Growing Demand for Clean and Reliable Power India's rapid urbanization, population growth, and industrial expansion have significantly increased electricity consumption. Traditional coal-powered systems face challenges due to environmental pressures and regulatory constraints, prompting a shift toward cleaner alternatives. Gas engines are emerging as a preferred option for decentralized power generation owing to their lower emissions and operational reliability. In regions plagued by power outages, industries and commercial complexes are increasingly adopting gas engines for captive energy needs. Their quick start-up capabilities also make them ideal for peak load and backup applications. The government's initiatives to reduce coal dependency and expand natural gas infrastructure further support gas engine adoption. As India's electricity demand is expected to rise by 5-6% annually, gas engines are set to play a vital role in meeting the growing need for sustainable and consistent power. Inconsistent Availability and High Cost of Natural Gas The Indian gas engine market faces a major obstacle in the form of unreliable and costly natural gas supply. Although the government is working to expand the gas pipeline network, domestic production remains insufficient, making India heavily reliant on imported Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG), whose prices fluctuate with global trends and geopolitical shifts. This pricing volatility impacts the operational feasibility of gas engines, particularly for industries needing predictable energy costs. Moreover, areas lacking piped gas access depend on transported LNG, which increases logistical and financial burdens. Additionally, the limited domestic gas supply is often reserved for priority sectors like fertilizers and city gas distribution, reducing its availability for power generation. These factors contribute to investor uncertainty, hindering broader adoption of gas engine systems. Shift Toward Decentralized and On-site Power Generation A prominent trend in India's gas engine sector is the move toward decentralized and on-site energy solutions. Businesses and industries seeking independence from an unreliable grid and rising utility costs are increasingly deploying gas engines for self-generated power. This is particularly notable in energy-intensive sectors such as manufacturing, healthcare, data centers, and commercial infrastructure. Decentralized generation offers advantages like reduced transmission losses, operational resilience, and better energy control. With scalability to suit varying facility sizes, gas engines are gaining ground in urban and industrial regions with access to piped gas. Additionally, compliance with stricter environmental regulations is encouraging the replacement of diesel gensets with gas engines. As organizations continue to focus on cost-efficiency and sustainability, decentralized power generation using gas engines is expected to expand further.

Cricket-T20 can be US craze like yoga and Bollywood weddings

By Amlan Chakraborty (Reuters) -Indian-American businessman Sanjay Govil is convinced Twenty20 cricket can be the next big cultural import into the United States, following a trail blazed by yoga and Bollywood-style weddings. Previous investors have held similar dreams of breaking into the U.S. sports league market, only to be thwarted by the nation's obsession with baseball, basketball and American football. IT entrepreneur Govil, however, is confident that along with Microsoft's India-born CEO Satya Nadella and Silicon Valley's Anand Rajaraman and Venky Harinarayan he can embed the short, jazzy version of cricket deeply into the U.S. sporting landscape "T20 leagues are the future," Govil, who owns Washington Freedom, one of the six franchises in the Major League Cricket (MLC), told Reuters. "Like Yoga, like Bollywood weddings, things from India and it's crazy here. "People here just love Indian wedding. When we have weddings in hotels, people just stop and watch. It's a spectacle, right?" Although cricket originated in England, India is now its financial engine with a cash cow in named the Indian Premier League (IPL) T20 competition, which has a brand value of $12 billion. IPL franchises with deep pockets also own teams in leagues in England, South Africa, United Arab Emirates, West Indies and the United States. The U.S. featured in the first international cricket match, against Canada, in New York in 1844, but cricket remains very much a niche sport in the country. RAISED PROFILE The introduction of the MLC in 2023 and staging matches in last year's T20 World Cup have raised the game's profile. Cricket returning to Olympics after a gap of 128 years at the 2028 Los Angeles Games will be "another big impetus", said Govil, who was born in Canada but grew up in New Delhi before moving to the U.S. Govil, who also owns 50% stake in the Welsh Fire franchise of The Hundred tournament in England, said MLC franchises learned a lot from their interaction with IPL counterparts. "One of the IPL owners came to my house and he educated me on how to build a team," he said. The presence of India's marquee players in the MLC would have been the icing on the cake but Govil respects the Indian board's policy of not allowing its players to take part in leagues abroad. "I'm sure they have some logic behind why they're doing what they're doing, and I respect that," he said. "I have to succeed in the cards which are dealt to me." Govil knows that cricket in the U.S. cannot rely only on the Indian market or south Asian diasporas in order to be successful. "We want to grow domestic talent. We cannot just rely on international players," he said. "We also have to create our own market here, because we cannot just rely on Indian eyeballs watching our matches." "We are in this for a long haul," Govil added. "We are making a lot of investments. We all have to have our own stadiums. "Once we have like eight or nine stadiums, that's when you're going to really see cricket growing in the U.S." Error in retrieving data Sign in to access your portfolio Error in retrieving data Error in retrieving data Error in retrieving data Error in retrieving data
