New Delhi: Standard Capital, a non-banking financial company (NBFC), will raise Rs 121 crore through the issuance of 12,100 non-convertible debentures (NCDs). The company has informed exchanges in two separate filings that its board of directors have approved the allotment. It said that the board has approved allotment of 10,000 NCDs and 2,100 NCDs for Rs 1,00,000 each, aggregating to Rs 121 crore.
'… Board of Directors of the Company by circulation held today, i.e. Monday, May 05, 2025, has inter-alia, considered and approved the allotment of 2100 unrated, unlisted, secured NCDs, of face value of ₹1,00,000/- each at an issue price of Rs. 1,00,000/- each aggregating to ₹21,00,00,000 on Private Placement basis in terms of Private placement cum application letter,' the filing reads.
Earlier, the company has informed exchanges that it is awaiting approvals from regulatory authorities, including the Reserve Bank of India (RBI), to explore international markets as part of a broader strategy to expand its financial services portfolio and strengthen its global footprint.
As part of this initiative, the NBFC said that it is evaluating opportunities to establish overseas subsidiaries and strategic partnerships in key global financial hubs. 'The proposed international ventures will focus on secured and unsecured lending, trade finance, and wealth management solutions, tailored to both individual and institutional clients,' the company said.
Meanwhile, benchmark indices Sensex and Nifty declined in early trade on Tuesday facing volatile trends as investors preferred to stay on the sideline a day ahead of the US Federal Reserve's policy decision. Also, range-bound trading prevailed in the markets amid escalating tensions between India and Pakistan following the April 22 terror attack in Pahalgam and concerns over US-China trade negotiations.
The 30-share BSE benchmark gauge declined 100.4 points to 80,696.44 in early trade, despite a positive opening. The NSE Nifty dipped 40.15 points to 24,421.

Air India crash set to trigger over Rs 1,000 crore insurance claims
MUMBAI: The crash of an Air India Boeing 787 Dreamliner in Ahmedabad has set off what may become India's costliest aviation insurance claim, with potential liabilities crossing Rs 1,000 crore, which is more than the total annual premium for the country's aviation sector. Tired of too many ads? go ad free now While the aircraft's age may help contain hull loss, the crash, which reportedly killed over 240 people and caused collateral damage on the ground near the airport, is expected to result in significant liability payouts. Air India has insured its fleet through a $20-billion aviation programme. Hull and liability coverage are split, with Tata AIG, a group company, underwriting part of the risk alongside other domestic insurers. The reinsurance structure is led by a global consortium including AIG, with participation from public sector entities such as New India Assurance and GIC Re. Shares of both fell following the incident by 4% and 3%, respectively. Amit Agarwal, CEO and MD at Howden India, said that aircraft damage would be covered under the aviation hull all-risk section, which insures the current valuation of the aircraft, including spares and equipment. The Dreamliner involved (registration VT-ABN), delivered in 2013, was insured for approximately $115 million in 2021. "Whether the damage is partial or total, the loss would be covered based on the value declared by the airline. " While the hull loss is substantial, liability claims are expected to be larger. "The liability section which is likely the most significant component of the loss, could amount to millions of dollars," said Agarwal, referring to passenger deaths and potential third-party claims from the crash site. Tired of too many ads? go ad free now Under the Montreal Convention of 1999, compensation to passengers is calculated in Special Drawing Rights (SDRs), with a current value of 1,28,821 SDRs, or roughly $1,71,000 per passenger. Further clarity came from Hitesh Girotra of Prudent Insurance Brokers, who estimates the hull value at around $75-80 million. "The liability on the operator will have multiple angles," he said. "The nationality of the passengers will determine the minimum liability under the Montreal Convention. "Additionally, there is third-party property damage liability, and possibly loss of civilian lives where the aircraft crashed." The scale and complexity of the claim reflect the evolving nature of aviation insurance. Narendra Bharindwal, president of the Insurance Brokers Association of India, offered a broader context: "Insurance coverage for large commercial aircraft such as the Boeing 787 is substantial and structured globally." He added, "Hull values can range between $200-300 million and liability cover for international routes often exceeds $500 million. " Air India's aviation programme, like others of its size, is reinsured across global markets. No single insurer bears the entire risk.

Sensex, Nifty decline amid geopolitical tension and trade uncertainty
Indian equities declined on Thursday amid uncertainty surrounding the US–China trade deal and rising geopolitical tensions. The Sensex ended at 81,692, a decline of 823 points or 1 per cent. The Nifty, meanwhile, ended the session at 24,888, a fall of 253 points or 1.01 per cent. Investors were jittery despite US President Donald Trump's claim on Wednesday that a tariff framework with China had been reached. Concerns about elevated geopolitical tensions further dented sentiment after Iran said it would strike US bases in the Middle East if nuclear talks failed. The US, in response, said its personnel were being moved out of the Middle East as it could become a dangerous place. Geopolitical tensions in the Middle East could push Brent crude prices higher—a key negative for India, which imports most of its crude oil requirements. Aviation stocks declined after a fatal crash of a Boeing 787 Dreamliner operated by Air India left more than 200 people dead. The shares of Indian aviation firms fell. The stock of InterGlobe Aviation, which owns IndiGo, dropped 2.7 per cent, while that of SpiceJet declined by 1.8 per cent. Shares of helicopter services firm Global Vectra Helicorp fell by 0.1 per cent, and those of chartered aircraft carrier Taal Enterprises declined by 3.05 per cent. In the near future, negotiations between the US and its trading partners, as well as geopolitical developments, will determine market direction. 'The Nifty has once again approached the support zone of its short-term moving average—the 20-day EMA—which currently lies around the 24,800 mark. A decisive break below this level could lead the index back into a consolidation phase. Given the prevailing uncertainty, we recommend maintaining strict stop-losses in short-term trades, particularly in the mid-cap and small-cap space. It is also advisable to avoid aggressive long positions until a clearer directional trend emerges,' said Ajit Mishra, senior vice-president – research, Religare Broking. Barring three, all Sensex constituents declined. Larsen & Toubro, which fell 2.2 per cent, was the biggest contributor to the Sensex decline, followed by Infosys, which dropped 1.4 per cent. The market breadth was weak, with 2,780 stocks declining and 1,226 advancing.

Dr Sreenath K R, Director General of Fisheries Survey of India, said, 'India's fisheries sector is making global waves—exporting to over 130 countries and powered by transformative investments in infrastructure and innovation. Such expos are necessary to drive innovation and align with the Prime Minister's vision for sustainable, tech-driven growth.' IFT Expo 2025 features live exhibits and top-level conferences on issues such as smart aquaculture systems, AI-driven water quality monitoring, innovative aquafeeds, cold chain and refrigeration, and sustainable packaging.
