Time of India21-05-2025

Buying a home is a significant milestone, often requiring financial assistance through a home loan. Private banks offer home loans to help individuals buy, construct, or upgrade residential real estate properties. Understanding the nuances of home loan interest rates, the importance of a good credit score, Equated Monthly Installments (EMIs), and the important documents to check before buying a property can make this process smoother and more cost-effective.
Importance of credit score
Your interest rate is linked to your credit score, which can be ensured by timely payment of all EMIs and credit card dues. Being a super-prime borrower (score: 800+) helps you get a lower home loan rate.

EMI or Equated Monthly Instalment is a fixed amount paid by you to the bank on a specific date every month. The EMI's are fixed when you borrow money from the bank as a loan. EMI's are used to pay both interest and principal amount of a loan in a way that over a specific number of years, the loan amount is repaid to the bank along with interest.

BMC climate budget to focus on flood mitigation, water management

The Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC) on Thursday announced its annual climate budget for the financial year 2025-26. The climate budget will focus on specific activities related to the area of environmental sustainability and climate change by taking up activities like urban greening, water resource management, and encouraging adaptation of clean energy. According to the budget document, the civic body for its climate budget has allocated Rs 16,321 crore or 37% of the total capital expenditure (capex) from this year's annual budget. The BMC in February this year announced its annual budget of Rs 74,427 crore for 2025-26, out of which, Rs 43,162 crore or 58% was earmarked as capex. This is the second consecutive year that BMC has come up with a climate budget. For 2024-25, BMC had allocated Rs 10,224 crore in its budget, which was 31% of last year's overall capex. Alongside this, the BMC has said that around Rs 5.62 crore from the revenue expenditure will also be used as per the climate budget. Of this year's total climate budget, a lion's share of Rs 15,048 crore or 88% has been allocated for water resource management and mitigation of urban flooding in Mumbai. This is followed by Rs 383 crore allocated for urban greenery, Rs 322 crore for sustainable waste management, and Rs 226.94 crore for transforming existing buildings into clean energy. The budget document shows that Rs 237.48 crore will be spent by BMC for integrated mobility, while BEST will spend Rs 744.78 crore for the same. The budget document also shows that Rs 102 crore has been allocated for air quality management, which is 0.60% of the total climate budget. The budget document states that key highlights are on urban flooding and water resource management because this sector reflects the civic body's core objective of urban service delivery which includes water supply, sanitation, sewage, wastewater management and stormwater drainage system. 'This sector will span over six key action tracks: building flood-resilient infrastructure; promoting localised water conservation and efficiency; reducing pollution and restoring aquatic ecosystems; providing safe and affordable drinking water; ensuring access to clean, safe toilets; and mitigating disaster risks and impacts,' the budget document stated. Furthermore, the civic body also stated that in contrast, sectors such as energy transition and grid decarbonisation fall largely outside the jurisdiction of the BMC and therefore have limited actionable scope under the current governance structure. 'However, the inclusion of the BEST Undertaking has led to a significant increase in allocations to the Energy and Buildings and Integrated Mobility sectors. Similarly, the aspired incremental approach to including other Mumbai agencies would contribute to a more holistic understanding of climate-related allocations across the six sectors,' the document stated. The climate budget has set up long term targets that are to be achieved by 2030. According to the document, the civic body has aimed to reduce air pollution by at least 30%, urban heat island effect by 40% and increase vegetation cover by 40%. The BMC has also proposed decarbonising Mumbai by at least 50% by electrification of all the existing BEST buses and civic owned vehicles.

China begging this Muslim nation to buy its J-10C fighter jet, the country is..., its India's...

China has offered the J-10C fighter jet to Indonesia. (File) China is touting the alleged success of its J-10C fighter jet in the recent India-Pakistan air battle during Operation Sindoor as Beijing is making efforts to sell the multirole fighter to Indonesia, the world's largest Muslim country, which has close diplomatic ties with New Delhi. China offers J-10C fighter jet to Indonesia Addressing a public forum in Jakarta on Wednesday, Donny Ermawan Taufanto, Indonesia's deputy minister of defense, revealed that China had offered the J-10C fighter jet to Indonesia, and stated that the offer was currently under preliminary evaluation, and no technical team has yet been deployed to Beijing for further assessment. 'It is just an offer at the moment,' he said. Tafaunto said the proposal came up during a visit by Indonesian Air Force officials to China, and the Indonesian government is currently examining whether the aircraft meets the country's operational requirements and whether they can be integrated into existing military systems, Bloomberg News reported. China's offer to Indonesia comes at a times when smaller nations are spending more on military hardware due to global conflicts such as the Russia-Ukraine war, the Israel-Hamas war, and the recent tensions between nuclear-armed India and Pakistan. Indonesia 'pragmatic' defense procurement policy under Prabowo As per reports, Indonesia, under President Prabowo Subianto, is making efforts to diversify its defense export chain as part of the country's push towards military modernization. During Prabowo's tenure, Indonesia has explored options for military cooperation with traditional defense partners as well as new countries. Indonesia has partnered with South Korea in the development of the KF-21 supersonic fighter jet, and also recently expressed interest Turkey's 5th-generation 'KAAN' fighter jet project. Additionally, Prabowo has instructed defense officials to re-examine old plans to buy F- 15EX fighter jets from Boeing. Taufanto described Indonesia's defense procurement policy as pragmatic and non-aligned, which gives the country the freedom to ink defense defense agreements with different countries. 'If we feel that this aircraft performs well, meets our requirements and the price is also reasonable, then why not? We are not bound by any alliance, we can buy weapons from any country – even China,' he stated. China touts J-10C 'success' in Indo-Pak air battle Meanwhile, China is touting the purported 'success' of its J-10C fighter jets during the recent India-Pakistan military confrontation. Taking advantage of the speculations surrounding the alleged 'success' of J-10C fighter, a two-part documentary was aired on China's state-run CCTV, which delved in to the origins of the aircraft and its 'battle-tested' capabilities. The documentary claimed that the J-10CE (export variant) achieved its 'first victory' in the recent war. The move was not only to promote China's military technology but also an attempt to strengthen its position in the global arms market. Pakistan claims J-10C downed Indian Rafales Pakistan has claimed that its air force shot down several Indian Air Force (IAF) fighter jets, including the French Rafale jets, using Chinese-made J-10C fighter jets during the aerial battle that took place on the night of May 7 when Indian armed forces launched Operation Sindoor against terror infrastructures inside the enemy country. Speaking in the country's Parliament, Pakistan Deputy Prime Minister and Foreign Minister, Ishaq Dar, claimed, without proof, that the Pakistan Air Force (PAF) shot down several Indian jets, including three Rafales, using J-10C fighter jets and Chinese PL-15E missiles. However, Pakistan's claims have been vehemently refuted by India as 'rumors' and 'misinformation'. Indian Defence Ministry and Air Force officials clarified that reports of losses were exaggerated, though CDS General Anil Chauhan has confirmed some air losses in a recent interview.
