Chinese weaponry failed in real war, says BJP nat'l spokesperson
Operation Sindoor
was conducted in Pakistan. However, on rebound, China was hit as its weaponry failed in the real war, BJP's national spokesperson Sudanshu Trivedi said here on Saturday.
Citing the fall in the Chinese defence firm stocks after Operation Sindoor, he said, "The stocks of defence firms such as Avic Systems Chengdu, which manufactures the JF-17 aircraft planes and PL-15 (air-to-air missile) that were used by Pakistan, witnessed a significant fall of up to 10%. In contrast, prices of India's defence stocks, including Hindustan Aeronautics (HAL) and Garden Reach Shipbuilders, rose sharply as the weapons used in the operation were indigenously made.
"
Speaking at the national seminar on "Road Map to Viksit Bharat – A Multidisciplinary Approach" by Tamil Nadu Higher Education Teachers Association at VIT Chennai campus, Trivedi said the time of India has arrived.

"Students should aspire to become entrepreneurs to make India a manufacturing nation.

VIT chancellor G Viswanathan asked for more allocation of funds in the budget for education.
"In this year's union budget, the allocation for education is 2.5% out of 55 lakh crore. Education development is a prerequisite for economic development. Our Gross Enrollment Ratio (GER) in higher education is only 28%, whereas developed countries have GER from 60% to 100%," Viswanathan said.

Is Aditya Infotech's IPO a risky bet for investors in a competitive market?
Agencies Live Events (You can now subscribe to our (You can now subscribe to our ETMarkets WhatsApp channel ET Intelligence Group: Aditya Infotech , a security and surveillance products manufacturer, plans to raise ₹500 crore through fresh equity to partly repay debt and another ₹800 crore through offer for promoter stake will fall to 77% after the IPO from 95%. The standardisation testing and quality certification (STQC) norms, which came into effect in April 2025, will affect the sale of products from Chinese companies in the internet protocol (IP) driven surveillance systems thereby increasing the addressable market opportunity for Indian this augurs well for Aditya, the extent of the benefit will take a few quarters to become clear. In addition, the company's Ebitda margin was in single digits, at 8-9% between FY23 and FY25. It indicates that the company operates in a highly competitive market. Given these factors, the IPO looks more suitable for long-term investors with high risk undertakes manufacturing and sales of its own products as well as trading of products of China-based Dahua Technology. Trading of Dahua products contributed 24.7% to revenue in FY25. This is expected to fall given the STQC norms . Trading margin is typically one-third of Aditya's own products margin. A lower trading contribution in revenue, therefore, may improve the Ebitda margin. Revenue grew 16.7% annually to ₹3,111.8 crore between FY23 and FY25. In July 2024, the company acquired control of its JV with Dixon technology in a share swap agreement with the PAT was boosted by ₹248.6 crore in FY25 as a gain on account of fair valuation of its stake in the JV, taking the total annual net profit to ₹351.4 debt was ₹231 crore in FY25 compared with ₹334.8 crore in the prior year. Net profit in FY25 includes a one-time fair value gain, which renders the trailing P/E multiple less effective. Profit before exceptional items and tax at ₹185.4 crore in FY25 was similar to ₹189.9 crore in FY24. Valuation based on FY24 numbers makes more sense. The FY24 P/E works out to be 68.7.

The Rajya Sabha will hold a special debate on the Operation Sindoor today, with the Opposition likely demanding a detailed explanation of the operation's objectives. This comes a day after the Lok Sabha debate. The IMF will publish its latest World Economic Outlook, a comprehensive analysis of the global economic situation read more A debate will take place in the the Upper House of Parliament over India's Operation Sindoor. Representational Image/PTI It is set to be a busy Tuesday with several events lined up for the day. Firstly, a debate will take place in the Rajya Sabha over Operation Sindoor today. Meanwhile, the International Monetary Fund (IMF) will publish its report on the world economy. German Chancellor Friedrich Merz will meet King Abdullah II of Jordan today. The National Disaster Management Authority, along with the Indian Army and state governments, will conduct large-scale disaster management exercises from today. STORY CONTINUES BELOW THIS AD Twin meteor showers, the Southern Delta Aquariids and the Alpha Capricornids, are expected to peak simultaneously today. Here are all the events that will take place today. Operation Sindoor debate in Rajya Sabha The Upper House of the Parliament, Rajya Sabha, is set to hold a special debate on Operation Sindoor, India's military response to the April 22 Pahalgam terror attack. The debate was agreed upon by both the government and the opposition. The session will follow a similar marathon discussion in the Lok Sabha on Monday (July 28) and aims to examine national security, intelligence, and diplomatic implications. The government is expected to face intense scrutiny from the Opposition benches, who are likely to demand a detailed explanation of the operation's objectives, its precise geographical scope, the forces involved, and, crucially, the outcomes and any potential implications for regional stability. IMF to publish report on world economy The International Monetary Fund is set to release its latest World Economic Outlook (WEO) update, providing a comprehensive analysis of the global economic situation, offering revised growth forecasts, inflation projections, and assessments of key economic risks and opportunities for countries worldwide. The International Monetary Fund is set to release its latest World Economic Outlook update. File image/AP The July update is particularly crucial as it follows a period of significant global economic uncertainty. Analysts and policymakers will be closely scrutinising the report for the IMF's revised GDP growth forecasts, especially given persistent inflation concerns, varying monetary policy stances across major economies, and ongoing geopolitical tensions. The update will likely detail how these factors are impacting different regions and highlight potential divergences in economic performance. German Chancellor to meet Jordan's King Abdullah II German Chancellor Friedrich Merz is scheduled to meet Jordan's King Abdullah II today during a visit to Berlin. The discussions between Chancellor Merz and King Abdullah II are expected to focus on strengthening cooperation across various sectors, including economic partnerships, development aid, and security collaboration. A significant portion of the talks will undoubtedly be dedicated to recent developments in West Asia, particularly the ongoing conflict in Gaza and the broader humanitarian situation. Both leaders have previously emphasised the urgent need for an immediate ceasefire, unimpeded humanitarian aid delivery to Gaza, and a political solution based on the two-state solution. King Abdullah II has been a prominent voice on these issues, and Merz recently urged Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu to provide aid to 'starving' civilians in Gaza. STORY CONTINUES BELOW THIS AD Disaster mock drill in Delhi-NCR Delhi and the National Capital Region (NCR) will witness a massive multi-agency disaster management exercise, 'Exercise Suraksha Chakra.' This large-scale drill will be spearheaded by the National Disaster Management Authority (NDMA) in collaboration with the Indian Army and the state governments of Delhi, Haryana, and Uttar Pradesh. School students participate in a mock drill. File image/PTI The four-day exercise, which runs until August 1, aims to significantly strengthen coordination and response mechanisms for major disaster scenarios, specifically during large-scale earthquakes and industrial chemical hazards. The drill is structured in phases, moving from strategic planning to on-ground action. Twin meteor showers to light up skies Two meteor showers, the Southern Delta Aquariids and the Alpha Capricornids, are expected to peak simultaneously today across the Northern Hemisphere. The Southern Delta Aquariids are typically active from mid-July to mid-August, reaching their peak around late July. They originate from the debris left by Comet 96P/Machholz. Under ideal conditions, this shower can produce up to 20 meteors per hour. Sharing the sky, the Alpha Capricornids are a smaller, but often more dramatic, shower. Active from early July to mid-August, they peak around the same time as the Southern Delta Aquariids. This shower is notable for producing bright fireballs, even if their hourly rate is lower.
