Syntel and Arya Omnitalk earn nearly ₹200 crores and ₹250 crores in annual revenues, respectively.

Syntel offers enterprise communications, security and surveillance solutions, while Arya Omnitalk provides a range of radio communication devices, including the distribution of
Motorola
's walkie-talkie equipment.
'We offer radio communication services and critical communication services, as well as provide Internet of Things (IoT)-based vehicle tracking services,' the top executive said, adding that the company has recently forayed into toll management.
The Pune-based company is also eyeing to tap opportunities in the telecom networking segment.
'We are trying to bring in switches and routers, and Wi-Fi capabilities because we now feel projects like a smart city will pick up,' Shetty added.
Under the enterprise connectivity portfolio, the group is also looking to expand its product line to include artificial intelligence (AI)-based video analytics and facial recognition.

US investment firm Artisan Partners to liquidate China portfolio by end-June
Firm says liquidation comes amid uncertain geopolitical environment Spokesperson says Hong Kong office will remain operational US has heightened scrutiny of American capital flowing into China By Kane Wu and Summer Zhen HONG KONG, - U.S.-based investment firm Artisan Partners is liquidating a China-focused investment portfolio by the end of June, a company spokesperson said on Saturday. "This decision comes amid an increasingly uncertain geopolitical environment and a persistently challenging economic and market backdrop, which have put significant pressure on flows across dedicated China strategies," the Artisan spokesperson said. The spokesperson said its Hong Kong office will remain operational, housing investment and trading professionals. Two sources with knowledge of the matter told Reuters on Friday that the firm was disbanding the Hong Kong-based team responsible for its Greater China strategy. One said the decision was partly due to concerns about escalating Sino-U.S. trade and geopolitical tensions that have made investments in the world's second-largest economy riskier. The sources declined to be named as the information was not public. Reuters could not immediately ascertain how many people would be affected by the decision. The firm's China post-venture strategy, a fund that focuses on Chinese small- and mid-cap public and private companies, had $113 million of assets under management at the end of April, according to the firm's monthly update. In the same update, Artisan said the China-focused portfolio was in the process of winding down, without giving details. The firm's retreat from China-focused investments comes amid the U.S. government's tightened scrutiny of American investments in China and an ongoing trade war that has clouded the business outlook of many export-heavy companies from China. The U.S. government restricts U.S. investments in certain sensitive technology sectors in China, such as semiconductors, artificial intelligence and quantum computing. U.S. investors are also restricted from investing in companies that are on the U.S. sanctioned entity list that comprise a growing number of those from China. U.S. onshore investors were not able to buy shares of Chinese battery giant CATL in its $4.6 billion Hong Kong listing last month due to the structure of the deal, CATL's filings showed. CATL was placed on a U.S. Defense Department list in January of Chinese companies it says work with China's military. By March 2025, Artisan's China post-venture strategy posted a net loss of 10.4% since its inception in March 2021. "The largest risks for investing in China will continue to be geopolitics and domestic policy overshoots," Tiffany Hsiao, the strategy's portfolio manager, said in a client letter on the firm's website in April. Outside the U.S., Artisan also has offices in London, Dublin, Singapore and Sydney, according to its website. The move follows the exit or downsizing of several North American asset managers and international law firms from Hong Kong over the past few years. Ontario Teachers' Pension Plan, Canada's third-largest pension fund, announced the closure of its Hong Kong office in March.

Rate-sensitive sectors like banking, NBFCs, real estate and automobile to gain amid easing rates: Report
New Delhi [India], : Sectors such as banking, NBFCs, real estate, and automobiles are expected to be the key beneficiaries of the current easing interest rate environment, according to a report by Nexedge Research. The report mentioned that with borrowing costs on a downward trend, these rate-sensitive segments are likely to witness stronger credit flow, lower financing costs, and improved demand conditions. It said, "Banking, NBFCs, real estate, and automobiles are well positioned to benefit from lower borrowing costs." The report also noted that the Indian economy is entering a phase marked by benign inflation and ample liquidity, creating a sustained low-interest rate backdrop. This is already evident in the falling money market rates and a notable softening in the 10-year government bond yield. The report mentioned that the decline in yields has boosted bond prices and improved return prospects for fixed-income investors. It said, "Money market rates and bond yields are trending lower, with the 10-year G-sec yield already softening, boosting bond prices and supporting fixed-income returns." The report highlighted that inflation is currently hovering near the lower end of the Reserve Bank of India's target range of 2-6 per cent. With the RBI maintaining a neutral policy stance, the market is beginning to price in the possibility of further rate cuts. This combination of falling inflation and proactive monetary easing is seen as supportive for both equity and bond markets. The report suggested that these factors together are strengthening the medium-term macro outlook, offering a positive backdrop for investors and further momentum for India's economic growth. The RBI's Monetary Policy Committee on Friday cut the repo rate by 50 basis points to 5.50 per cent . This larger-than-expected cut marks the third consecutive reduction in 2025, totalling 100 bps of easing since February. Consequently, the Standing Deposit Facility rate stands adjusted at 5.25 per cent, and the Marginal Standing Facility rate and Bank Rate are set at 5.75 per cent. The RBI has also reduced CRR by 100 bps to augment durable liquidity in the banking system. This CRR cut will be implemented in phases beginning September 6, , and November 29, 2025, and is expected to release roughly ₹ 2.5 trillion of liquidity by November 2025, bolstering bank lending capacity.

FIIs infuse ₹15,208 crore; remains net sellers in 2025. Will FPIs make a comeback in 2025?
Both Foreign Institutional Investors (FIIs) and Domestic Institutional Investors (DIIs), remained net buyers on Friday, June 6, despite the Nifty moving within a tight range near its all-time highs. Foreign Portfolio Investors (FPIs) or FIIs recorded net purchases of ₹ 1,009 crore, having bought equities worth ₹ 15,208 crore and sold ₹ 14,198 crore on Friday, as per data available on NSE. In comparison, DIIs were notably more active, registering net purchases of ₹ 9,342 crore. DIIs acquired shares amounting to ₹ 22,522.51 crore while offloading ₹ 13,180 crore worth. Although there were positive inflows during the day, FIIs have continued to be net sellers in 2025, having sold equities worth ₹ 1.24 lakh crore so far. On the other hand, DIIs have consistently backed the market, with their net purchases approaching ₹ 3 lakh crore since the beginning of the year. In June so far, FIIs have recorded net outflows of ₹ 4,575.59 crore, whereas DIIs have made net purchases totaling ₹ 16,170.95 crore, highlighting the strong domestic backing that has been driving recent market resilience. According to a report by Iconic Wealth, FIIs hold 18.8 per cent of Indian equities versus an average of 30 per cent for EM (ex-China). This leaves wide runway for fresh global capital to chase the India growth story over the coming decade. Since 2015, FIIs have trimmed their allocation to large-cap stocks from around 80 per cent to under 77 per cent. However, during the same period, they significantly broadened their portfolios—now holding positions in 80 per cent of Nifty-500 companies compared to just 20 per cent twenty years ago, the report revealed. FIIs are steadily increasing their exposure to sectors like chemicals, EMS, telecom, financials, and infrastructure—driven by themes such as the China+1 strategy, tech-enabled consumption growth, and the ongoing capex upcycle. "From hundred favourites to four hundred front runners: FIIs have moved from investing in just top 20% of Nifty 500 companies till two decades ago to 80% today, while their allocation to the Nifty 50 has simply dwindled to historic lows - indicating that global investors now see opportunity across the full breadth of Indian market," said Srikanth Subramanian, Co-Founder & CEO, Ionic Wealth.
