The Isuzu V Cross packs more equipment, a more premium cabin, the option of an automatic transmission, and more
There are no mechanical changes to the pick-up with the latest price revision. Both the Isuzu Hi-Lander and V-Cross draw power from the 1.9-litre turbocharged diesel engine tuned for 161 bhp and 360 Nm of peak torque, paired with a 6-speed gearbox. The V-Cross also gets the option of an automatic transmission and all-wheel drive.
We recently spent some time with the Isuzu Hi-Lander and came back impressed with what the pick-up has to offer, despite its bare bones structure. That said, the pick-up turned out to be quite the companion on the pothole-laden roads in the monsoon, while also being massively practical to move large objects. In comparison, the V-Cross differentiates itself with a more premium cabin, an automatic transmission, and the addition of all-wheel drive, making it more capable when going off-road.

Nirmala Sitharaman introduces Insolvency and Bankruptcy Code (Amendment) Bill, 2025 in Lok Sabha
Union Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman introduced a Bill in the the Lok Sabha on Tuesday, 12 August, that allows creditors to start an insolvency process outside a court for genuine business failures. The Bill aims to resolve such insolvency cases faster and in a cheaper way than it is done in the current system. The Bill was introduced amid opposition protests over a separate matter concerning the Special Intensive Revision of electoral rolls in Bihar. Despite the uproar, the House approved Sitharaman's motion to refer the Bill to a Select Committee for further examination. At the heart of the proposed amendments lies the creation of a 'creditor-initiated insolvency resolution process'. This would allow creditors to begin insolvency proceedings through an out-of-court initiation mechanism for genuine business failures. By bypassing the need for immediate judicial intervention, the measure is expected to reduce delays, lower costs, and minimise disruptions to ongoing business operations. It also aims to ease the burden on overworked tribunals while improving access to credit and enhancing India's ease of doing business ranking. The Statement of Objects and Reasons accompanying the Bill emphasises its goal to 'maximise value for all stakeholders' and improve governance under the Insolvency and Bankruptcy Code (IBC). The amendments seek to refine existing provisions, introduce new tools for resolution, and harmonise procedures with internationally recognised norms. Two major new frameworks are set to be introduced: Group Insolvency Framework – Designed to address complex corporate structures, this mechanism will enable coordinated resolution of multiple entities within the same group, preventing the value erosion that can occur when cases are handled separately. Cross-Border Insolvency Framework – This will establish a legal basis for recognising and coordinating insolvency proceedings that span multiple jurisdictions, protecting stakeholder interests in both domestic and foreign courts and bolstering investor confidence. If implemented effectively, these reforms could mark a turning point for India's corporate resolution landscape. By streamlining processes, reducing litigation timelines, and adopting cross-border recognition standards, the Bill is poised to make insolvency proceedings more predictable and business-friendly. Economists suggest that the reforms could encourage greater foreign investment by signalling that India is committed to protecting creditor rights while supporting distressed businesses in genuine need of revival. With the Bill now headed to the Select Committee, stakeholders from the financial sector, corporate community, and legal fraternity will be watching closely to see whether the final legislation preserves its intended balance between creditor empowerment and debtor protection.

Powered by the agility of a start-up and the scale of a global conglomerate, Vedanta is actively building a future-ready talent pool. Fuelled by rich job content and diverse opportunities across high-growth sectors, the company has become a preferred employer for young engineers, innovators, and leaders. Each year, Vedanta recruits nearly 2,000 fresh graduates from premier institutions including IITs and IIMs. Through robust learning and development initiatives, the company has created a strong pipeline of more than 3,000 young leaders under structured talent management programmes. Anil Agarwal, Chairman - Vedanta Group, in a message to employees and young talent, said: "I have always said that Vedanta has the heart of a start-up. Think of us as a late-stage start-up - our business is established, but our appetite for growth has only gone up. Young leadership, nimbleness, disruptive thinking, quick decision-making, and a desire to be the best in the world - these are the qualities that define us. The best thing about Vedanta is how young our colleagues and leaders are, and I am proud that our business partners share the same mindset. Let's involve our youngsters more in shaping the company's future - particularly our young women, who will be game-changers. We are living in disruptive times, and to capture opportunities, we must think differently and act boldly. This is India's time. This is Vedanta's time."

Their fresh perspectives and bold thinking have unlocked measurable business value, driving improvements in volume, cost, and margins. Within the talent development vertical, Vedanta introduced an industry first initiative called V-Aspire. Under this, the company implemented virtual AI interview bots for sharper identification of talent by eliminating human efforts and utilizing psychological pattern recognition model-based smart solution. This program resulted in the identification of over 500 high potential (HiPo) leaders across the organization in various business verticals. Notably, Vedanta's Employee Stock Options Scheme (ESOS) is among the most democratized in corporate India, extending beyond senior management to include entry-level professionals, fostering a strong ownership mindset and reinforcing the company's commitment to shared success. The company is also contributing to national initiatives such as the Prime Minister's Internship Scheme, which offers 21-24-year-olds 12 months of real-world work exposure. Under phase 1, Vedanta has uploaded over 1,100 confirmed internships on the PMIS Portal. Beyond its internal workforce, Vedanta impacts young lives through its social impact programmes.
