Tata Tech leans on SDV on auto cos' code push
Product engineering and digital services firm Tata Technologies is increasing its focus on software-defined vehicle (SDV) solutions as global automakers shift research and development (R&D) priorities from mechanical components to software and electronics to drive in-car innovation, a top executive said. While the car industry growth is only about 3-4 per cent per year globally, the SDV segment is expanding almost 25-30 per cent, Nachiket Paranjpe, president and head of sales for Global Automotive Business at the company, told ET. He also spoke about the high demand for SDV engineers. 'There's strong global demand for talent skilled in SDV-related technologies, especially in C++, Python, Linux, and other key platforms,' Paranjpe said. Tata Technologies has built an SDV workforce of about 1,000 engineers in India and 1,600 globally. He also highlighted the focus of automakers on the Indian market. 'With the China story for Western OEMs facing challenges and market shares declining, OEMs are now intensely focusing on India. They recognise India's significant disposable income and a large middle class seeking luxury mobility at specific price points,' Paranjpe said. This shift is expected to drive innovations that will help reduce prices, making products more accessible and comfortable for the Indian market segment, he added.

Stocks to Watch today, July 14: VIP Industries, Adani Green, NCC, DMart
Stocks to Watch today, July 14: The Indian stock market is poised for a flat start on Monday, with a negative bias, as cautious sentiment continues to dominate the D-street. Benchmark indices concluded last week's trading session in red as uncertainty on the trade tariff front and the Jane Street incident at home kept the overall investor mood jittery. At 7:13 AM, GIFT Nifty futures were trading at 19 points lower at 25,172, signalling a flat start. Global markets remained mainly flat as Wall Street failed to carry forward the recent optimism, despite hitting 52-week highs in the tech-led rally driven by Nvidia. The S&P 500 concluded Friday's trading session at 6,259.75, down by 0.33 per cent or 20 points. The tech-heavy index, Nasdaq, settled at 20,585.53, down by 0.22 per cent. In the Asia-Pacific region as well, market sentiment remained mixed. Japan's Nikkei started the week on a subdued note, trading at 39,359.70, down by 209 points or 0.53 per cent. However, South Korea's Kospi was trading at 3,192.58, higher by 0.53 per cent. Meanwhile, the Hang Seng index was also trading higher, at 24,176.38, up by 0.16 per cent. While IT giant Tata Consultancy Services' (TCS) first quarter results for the financial year 2025-2026 failed to impress the D-street, market analysts believe that earnings will continue to give directional cues. Besides, investors will closely watch out for the upcoming economic data announcements, which include inflation figures from the US as well as India. On top of that, China is expected to release its GDP numbers. Q1FY26 results today Major tech firms, including HCL Tech and Tata Tech, will be announcing their Q1FY26 results today. Meanwhile, Benares Hotels, Den Networks, Ola Electric Mobility, Tejas Networks and Sambhav Steel Tubes are some of the other firms set to release their earnings for Q1FY26.

It will also include a test track to carry out dynamic and running tests to ensure performance and safety before delivery. Hindustan Copper Ltd.: The company said in its recent exchange filing that the 50 per cent copper tariff announced by the US is unlikely to have any effect on its business. "Hindustan Copper Ltd (HCL) mines copper ore and beneficiates the same into copper concentrate. This copper concentrate is sold principally in India and hence HCL may have no effect of tariff on copper, if imposed by the USA," the filing read. Bharat Earth Movers Ltd. (BEML): The state-owned firm informed in an exchange filing that its board will meet on July 21, 2025 to consider a stock split.
