1k private schools served notices for lapses in RTE admissions in Haryana
Officials said that about 1,600 schools across the state have been served notices.
The urgency stems from the state's recent admission tracking report dated July 21, which revealed that only 58.52% of total admissions were verified.

Out of 11,803 RTE entries, just 4,096 were marked as accepted, 2,811 rejected and a staggering 4,896 remained unverified — despite clear directives issued weeks earlier.
A senior department official said, "This is the first time this year that show-cause notices have been issued at this scale specifically for RTE admission reporting failures after giving multiple deadlines."
While the academic session is already underway, officials warn that these lapses could not only delay reimbursements to schools but also jeopardise the admission rights of thousands of economically weaker section (EWS) students entitled to free education under RTE.
In Gurgaon, 92 admissions were accepted and 179 rejected, while 199 were still waiting to be verified. Overall, only 57.66% of admissions have been verified.

The education department notices were issued shortly after it extended the final update deadline to target schools that failed to comply with mandatory reporting guidelines on the official RTE tracking portal. The move came after the department flagged 4,896 unverified RTE admissions statewide — procedural lapses such as no checking or submission of documents — despite repeated deadlines and warnings.
An education department official said replies have begun coming in, but the department is still waiting for the latest consolidated report from the IT wing to assess district-wise follow-ups.
"Verification is not just a technical step — it directly affects a child's future. We cannot allow systemic negligence in something so critical," the official said.
As of now, the department continues to monitor responses to the show-cause notices and will take further action based on school replies and the final verification status.
Meanwhile, districts like Karnal (640), Faridabad (490) and Bhiwani (332) accounted for the highest number of unverified cases.
Nuh Mewat, where education standards are already low, stood out for its dismal verification rate of just 15.44%, with 219 out of 259 entries pending.

Govt may fine carmakers missing fuel efficiency targets under new rules
The government reportedly plans to fine carmakers that do not meet fuel efficiency rules; Bureau of Energy Efficiency (BEE) will check compliance Rimjhim Singh New Delhi The government has reportedly introduced draft rules to penalise carmakers that fail to meet India's fuel efficiency and emissions targets. The move aims to close a legal gap despite the Energy Conservation (Amendment) Act, 2022 already allowing for penalties. According to a report by The Economic Times, the Ministry of Power has released the Energy Conservation (Compliance Enforcement) Rules, 2025. The draft grants authority to the Bureau of Energy Efficiency (BEE) to track compliance with Corporate Average Fuel Efficiency (CAFE) norms and forward violations to state electricity regulatory commissions (SERCs) for penalty decisions. Why it matters India's automotive sector is under rising scrutiny to cut emissions. Eight major carmakers reportedly breached fuel consumption and emission limits in 2022-23, which could lead to ₹7,300 crore in fines. The new draft rules would formalise enforcement and help route penalties into the Central Energy Conservation Fund (CECF), with up to 90 per cent allocated to states based on local sales. Carmakers push back Auto companies, however, argue that the stricter fuel efficiency norms came into effect only on January 1, 2023, and that the current enforcement drive unfairly includes vehicles sold earlier in the 2022–23 financial year. Kia, Renault, and Mahindra & Mahindra are among the companies identified by government data for exceeding the prescribed threshold of 4.78 litres per 100 km and 113 grams of carbon dioxide per km. BEE's new powers under the draft rules If finalised, the rules will empower BEE to: • Monitor fuel efficiency compliance of each car model • Evaluate the degree of violations • Forward cases to relevant SERCs for penalty decisions • Deposit fines into the CECF Cleaner supply chains could cut emissions by 87% A recent study by the Council on Energy, Environment and Water (CEEW) found that India's auto industry could slash emissions by up to 87 per cent by 2050 through the use of green electricity and low-carbon steel. Major manufacturers such as Tata Motors, Mahindra & Mahindra, TVS Motors, and BMW are already aligned with international climate frameworks like the Science-Based Targets initiative. The report found that 83 per cent of the sector's emissions stem from upstream processes like steel and rubber manufacturing. Small alliances could unlock $66 bn annually for climate action Another international study from the Potsdam Institute for Climate Impact Research (PIK) showed that a group of fossil fuel-importing countries could raise $66 billion every year to support climate efforts in developing nations, news agency PTI reported. This could be achieved without extra cost to consumers by imposing joint taxes on fossil fuel imports. If extended to cover emissions from global shipping and aviation, the annual fund could grow to $200 billion.

What is Donald Trump's net worth beyond his presidential salary?
So, how much does Donald Trump actually get paid? If you're picturing piles of cash landing in his bank every month, buckle up. His official salary as President is capped by law. Curiosity arose around his salary after a recent post of his on X (formerly Twitter) went viral. In the post, the US President says he donated his first paycheck to the White House Historical Association. When you glance at his sprawling business empire, donations, crypto stunts, and licensing deals—well, that's where the real money flows. Let's walk through both worlds and see what's really going on. The official paycheck By law, US presidents earn $400,000 per year, a rate set back in 2001. On top of that, there are perks: a $50,000 annual expense allowance, a $100,000 travel account, a $19,000 entertainment fund, and even $100,000 for decorating the White House when first taking office. Add it all up, and the official compensation package is around $569,000 a year. (as per reports) Trump reported over $600 million in income in 2024 alone That's from his crypto ventures, licensing deals, Trump-branded products, and golf resorts, not including the paltry presidential salary. His Truth Social parent company (Trump Media & Technology Group) is valued in the billions; his stake is worth roughly $2.6 billion, and forms the bulk of his net worth. Add real estate: Forbes pegs it at around $1.1 billion, with cash, clubs, resorts, bonds, and miscellaneous assets adding hundreds of millions more. Current net worth estimates vary, from $5 billion (GOBankingRates) to over $7 billion (Bloomberg), with Forbes estimating around $6.7 bn as of mid-2024. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Treatment That Might Help You Against Knee Pain (Search Here) Kneepain | Search Search Now Undo So what's his net salary? If you're counting the Federal paycheck: $400k/year, formal, often donated. But his effective income? Higher—hundreds of millions per year, with 2024 clocking over $600 million in personal earnings. His businesses, crypto deals, licensing, royalties, and real estate are the real earners—not the tiny slice authorized by Congress.

Tata stocks lose over Rs 8 lakh crore in 11 months. Is it time to revisit your portfolio allocations?
The Tata Group has seen its market capitalization shrink by over Rs 8.25 lakh crore in the 11 months since September 27, 2024, with investor sentiment turning sharply amid global macroeconomic turbulence, faltering demand, and company-specific shocks across multiple verticals. From Rs 34.56 lakh crore at its peak, the group's listed market cap now stands at Rs 26.31 lakh crore as of August 5, 2025, a 23.87% decline. This comes despite a strong five-year performance. According to Tata Sons ' FY25 annual report, 'the group nearly doubled revenue and more than tripled net profit and market cap over the past five years, during which it spent Rs 5.5 lakh crore.' It added that revenue from all listed and unlisted entities in FY25 stood at Rs 15.34 lakh crore, with net profit at Rs 1.13 lakh crore and market cap at Rs 37.84 lakh crore.

Desert Order Undo Still, over the past year, nearly every major Tata Group stock has seen a sharp drop. Tata Consultancy Services ( TCS ), Tata Motors , and Trent alone account for nearly two-thirds of the decline, driven by industry-wide pressures in tech, demand shocks in retail, and geopolitical drag in autos. TCS: Sector storm, execution drag and delayed spends Once known as a buy-and-hold stock that could double money every five years, TCS shares are now enduring their worst phase since the 2008 financial crisis. The stock is down nearly 29% over the last 11 months, erasing over Rs 4.5 lakh crore in market value, the single largest contributor to the group's erosion. Live Events TCS's troubles are emblematic of broader industry issues, with the entire IT sector grappling with concerns over client spending in the USA, macroeconomic uncertainties, and AI-led transformation pressures. Recent Q1 results underscored the slowdown. Revenue fell 3.3% quarter-on-quarter in constant currency. While deal wins were healthy at $9.4 billion, no mega deals were signed. Management said: 'Delays in decision-making and project starts with respect to discretionary investments continued from Q4FY25 and intensified further in Q1FY26.' The company also announced layoffs of 2% of its workforce, about 12,000 employees. Jefferies flagged the move, warning it 'may lead to execution slippages in the near-term and higher attrition in the longer-run.' Elara downgraded the stock, citing 'delays in discretionary spending' and 'impact of geopolitical tensions in Europe.' Nomura cut its EPS forecasts and target price. Tata Motors: Once high-flying, now range-bound Tata Motors saw its market cap fall 34% or over Rs 1.24 lakh crore. Its stock is down 43% from its record high, impacted by weakening demand and policy headwinds. U.S. President Donald Trump's 25% tariffs on Indian auto exports to the U.S. weighed heavily on sentiment. Q4 FY25 earnings were weak: net profit fell 51% to Rs 8,470 crore, revenue remained flat, and margins dipped. Technical analysts remain cautious. 'It would be premature to call a trend reversal in Tata Motors,' said Kunal Kamble. 'Until it closes above Rs 745, bearish pressure remains intact.' Others, like Anuj Gupta, note that monsoons and festival demand may offer some upside, especially in the EV segment. Trent: From retail rocket to growth shock Trent, the retail powerhouse behind Zudio and Westside, saw a sharp 32% drop in value since September, erasing Rs 89,078 crore in market cap. It has fallen 24% in 2025 alone. Management indicated that the core fashion business would deliver around 20% growth in Q1FY26E, far below the 25%-plus growth aspiration for the coming years, triggering disappointment at its AGM. 'The soft demand environment and sourcing issues might have impacted this below-consensus result,' HSBC analysts said, pointing to sourcing disruption from Bangladesh. Nuvama cut the stock to 'Hold' and slashed its target price to Rs 5,884 from Rs 6,627. HSBC trimmed its price target as well, while maintaining a 'Buy' stance. Titan, Tata Power and Voltas among heavy drags Luxury and lifestyle major Titan lost over Rs 35,094 crore in market cap, a 10.36% slide. Tata Power erased Rs 31,889 crore, down 20.57% over the 11-months period, while Voltas fell 29.42%, wiping out over Rs 18,168 crore in value. The weakness in these consumer and utility plays reflects a broader slowdown in discretionary demand and sectoral rotation in domestic portfolios. Tata Communications, Tata Elxsi, Tejas see steep corrections Tata Communications lost over Rs 12,275 crore, down 20.25%, while Tata Elxsi, a key engineering services firm, fell 23.35%, shaving Rs 11,306 crore in value since September 2024. Tejas Networks was among the worst performers in terms of percentage decline. The stock plunged over 50.93%, dragging its market cap down by Rs 10,598 crore, amid concerns around telecom capex and weak near-term visibility. Resilience in hotels, chemicals and investments Not all Tata stocks fell. Rallis India gained 14.28% in market cap, adding over Rs 911 crore, while Indian Hotels rose nearly 6%, increasing its value by Rs 5,943 crore between September 2024 and August 2025. Tata Investment Corporation also moved higher by 4.25% during the period. Meanwhile, Benares Hotels, though small in size, posted a 16% rise. Tata Steel , despite global commodity volatility, lost just 4.14%, or Rs 8,614 crore, showing some relative strength. The group-wide view Despite short-term volatility, Tata Sons emphasised long-term value creation in its FY25 annual report, pointing to growth in fundamentals. 'The group nearly doubled revenue and more than tripled net profit and market cap over the past five years,' it noted. But markets, for now, are focused on current earnings risk and sectoral trends. With over Rs 8.25 lakh crore in value lost across 11 months, investors may indeed be asking: is it time to revisit your portfolio allocations?
