Land talks begin for Purandar airport, amid 3,000 objections from farmers in 7 villages
Pune: Land acquisition for the proposed Rs 3,500-crore Purandar International Airport showed early signs of becoming a complex process for the state govt after officials said they received more than 3,000 objections from farmers in seven villages that are set to lose land to the project. Tired of too many ads? go ad free now Hearings began this week to negotiate land rates and other compensation details with farmers, but many said they were not willing to part with their land. Others who are willing to sell have demanded Rs 10 crore per acre and the return of 15% of acquired land as developed plots, within the airport complex. It's the Maharashtra Industrial Development Corporation that's spearheading the acquisition of 2,832 hectares that will be needed for the greenfield airport project, which spans the villages of Vanpuri, Udachiwadi, Ekhatpur, Munjawadi, Kumbharvalan, Pargaon and Khanwadi — all in Purandar taluka. During a compensation hearing organised by state officials on Tuesday, anger was palpable among the protesting farmers. "We do not want construction here," said Jitendra Memane, a farmer from Pargaon. "We will continue our protests. They had first identified another location. They can build there," he said. Officials TOI spoke to said they would need at least 10 days to review the total of 3,022 objections that had come in from the seven villages. "All these objections and details of the hearings, along with our observations, will be submitted to the state govt," said a senior land acquisition official who is conducting the proceedings, which would have to be comprehensive. In Udachiwadi village alone, 142 objections have been filed, 116 of them were heard on Monday. Local farmer Santosh Hagwane said: "No acquisition should happen unless all farmers are completely satisfied with the details." Tired of too many ads? go ad free now Originally given to Maharashtra Airport Development Company (MADC), the Purandar project - seen by many as critical to Pune's growth - was transferred to MIDC following sustained farmer opposition. The MIDC now plans to raise Rs 3,500 crore from private investors to acquire 2,732 hectares, including an additional 70 hectares from the forest department. Deputy Collector (Land Acquisition) Kalyan Pandhare said the process would be completely transparent, with the state planning to acquire 90% of land with 10% returned to farmers as developed plots. "There will be no injustice to people," Pandhare said. Altogether, more than 2,000 families would need to be compensated for their property, but with many farmers demanding payments in full, high compensation rates and partial return of land, the challenges for officials remain significant. A second round of hearings has now been scheduled for June 17, to accommodate the farmers who missed the initial proceedings.

Best stocks to trade today: Expert Raja Venkatraman's recommendations for 11 June
BEST STOCKS TO TRADE TODAY , BEST STOCKS TO BUY TODAY , STOCK RECOMMENDATIONS FOR TODAY , RAJA VENKATRAMAN'S RECOMMENDATIONS FOR 11 JUNE , STOCK PICKS , EXPERT STOCK PICKS , SENSEX , NIFTY , NIFTY BANK : Trends were surprised as the markets remained stuck while attempting to stage a higher level. As positive vibes continues to extend with sector rotation showing its true form one should consider the upward momentum. Here are three stocks to trade, as recommended by Raja Venkatraman of NeoTrader for Wednesday, 11 June: TTK Healthcare Ltd: Buy CMP and dips to ₹1,250 | Stop ₹1,225 | Target ₹1,450-1,525 BF Utilities Ltd: Buy above 825 and dips to 795 | Stop 780 | Target 895-935 Thirumalai Chemicals Ltd: Buy above 286 on dips to ₹270 | Stop ₹260 | Target ₹320-335 Market recap After an impressive four-day rally, banking stocks finally took a breather on 10 June, causing the Nifty Bank to lose momentum. However, the broader market remained steady as the India VIX continued to slide, signaling a lack of fear among investors. The trading session saw benchmark indices moving within a narrow band, reflecting the overall cautious sentiment. While financial stocks eased, the IT sector saw a strong wave of buying interest. Leading technology giants, including TCS, Infosys, HCL Technologies, and Wipro, propelled the Nifty IT higher, extending its upward trajectory. Investors appeared confident in the prospects of large-cap tech firms, fueling gains across the sector. Also Read: This pharma stock surged 10X, crashed 60%, and rose to an all-time high again. Can it sustain the momentum? Meanwhile, the real estate sector struggled, with the Nifty Realty experiencing profit booking for the second straight session. As investors locked in recent gains, the sector witnessed some selling pressure, contrasting with the bullish momentum in IT stocks. Despite the fluctuations, the overall market sentiment remained composed, with volatility indicators pointing to stability. Traders largely maintained a wait-and-watch approach, weighing sector-specific movements while monitoring macroeconomic signals. With banking stocks on pause and IT counters gaining ground, market dynamics continue to shift, reflecting evolving investor preferences and broader economic trends. Outlook for trading Volatility continues to disturb the market sentiment, despite the clarity achieved in terms of the resistance, the trends remain challenged on either the Nifty is trying to sustain the higher levels, the constant selling pressure is keeping a lid on every rise. At the moment, the highs at 25,500 will remain an important point to consider. With the market holding the support zones to retain the bullish stance, we need to be careful as we move ahead into the week. Yesterday we had highlighted the possibility of a reaction and identified the levels around 24,900-25,000 would be a good area to consider for a long position and any move below 24,900 would be a surrender. However, as trends remain buoyant, we should be looking at a potential revival. The dip into the support region mentioned on the charts found some good buying interest coming into it and could now generate some revival as the RSI is now seen holding at the 60 levels and hinting at some upward trajectory. We are now observing that the Max Pain Point has shifted to 25,000 as the PCR remains supressed below 1, indicating that the selling pressure has stepped up once again. As trends are spending some time to hold on to the bullish bias seen on Monday, we continue towitness some encouraging triggers thus leading the trends through some challenging times. Time for being alert as trends are getting clearer. Three stocks to trade, recommended by NeoTrader's Raja Venkatraman: TTKHLTCARE (Cmp 1307.90) Why it's recommended: TTKHLTCARE has recently reported encouraging quarter numbers that can now help it stem the decline.

Target price: ₹1,450-1,525 in 1 month.

The last few days, the prices have been consolidating and the strong push above value area resistance around 800 augurs well for the prices. As momentum is also providing a favourable tailwind, we can consider some bullish prospects. Key metrics: P/E: 194.41 | 52-week high: ₹1,129.10 | Volume: 1.11M Technical analysis: Support at ₹623, resistance at ₹943 Risk factors: Industry competition , market volatility, elongated operating tailwind Buy: Above ₹825 and dips to ₹795 Target price: ₹895-935 in 1 month Stop loss: ₹780 Also Read: Behind ICICI Lombard's recent surge: What the headlines won't tell you TIRUMALCHM (Cmp 285.20) Why it's recommended: Thirumalai Chemicals Ltd is a leading manufacturer of specialty chemicals in India, specializing in the production of food-grade phosphates and other chemical products.
