Trinity's chariot parts to be auctioned at higher prices after Rath Yatra this year: SJTA
BHUBANESWAR: Devotees or organisations who wish to own a piece of the three chariots of the Trinity - Nandighosa, Debadalana and Taladhwaja - after the Rath Yatra will have to pay more this year. The prices have been significantly increased owing to the rising demand for the wooden wheels and decorative panels of the three chariots from devotees, organisations and industrial houses. The Shree Jagannath Temple Administration (SJTA) recently released an expression of interest and prepared a standard operating procedure (SOP) for allotment of the wheels, 'prabha', 'kona guja' and 'asuari' of the three chariots. The temple administration has fixed the offset (base) price for auction of each wheel of Lord Balabhadra's Taladhwaja at Rs 2 lakh, while it is Rs 1.5 lakh per wheel of Devi Subhadra's Debadalana and Rs 3 lakh per wheel of Lord Jagannath's Nandighosa. The base price for one wheel each of all the three chariots has been set at Rs 6 lakh. Similarly, while the price of 'prabha' of each chariot is Rs 25,000 each, that of both 'guja' and 'asuari' is Rs 15,000 each, this year. The cost of 'guja' and 'asuari' have also been increased by Rs 5,000 compared to last year.

RBI Cuts Repo Rate To 5.50%: What This Means
Mumbai: The Reserve Bank of India (RBI) announced a 50 basis-point repo rate cut to 5.50 per cent this week - from the earlier 6 per cent. RBI Governor Sanjay Malhotra declared the higher-than-expected repo rate cut after the RBI MPC meeting. This is the third consecutive rate reduction since February. The repo rate cut means the loan interest must also fall if it's repo-linked. The repo rate is the interest rate at which the RBI lends money to commercial banks. A reduction in this rate makes borrowing cheaper for banks, which in turn allows them to offer loans to customers at lower interest rates. This directly impacts borrowers, especially those with home loans linked to repo-based lending rates (RBLR). An X user and an expert, Vivek Khatri, explained the implications of the repo rate cut and what to do about it. According to Mr Khatri, the repo rate cut to 5.50 per cent means that if a person has a Rs 50 lakh loan, they can save Rs 1,569 per month, Rs 18,828 per year, and Rs 2.6 lakh in loan tenure. However, the twist is that there are only 90 days to claim it. "Your bank won't remind you. Most people will miss it and lose lakhs. Don't be one of them," he said. He also noted the list of steps to take to make sure the loan interest is repo-linked. Step 1: Ask the question Ask the bank if the loan is linked to the repo rate or the Marginal Cost of Funds based Lending Rate (MCLR). If the loan is on MCLR or fixed rate, the rate drop can take up to six to 12 months. In this case, the bank has full control with no fixed reset rule, Mr Khatri said. "If the answer is repo-linked, then proceed. If MCLR, ask if it can be switched to repo-linked and what are the charges," he said. Step 2: Find the reset date According to Mr Khatri, the repo-linked loans reset every three months, but not instantly after the RBI policy. In case of missing the reset date, file a complaint online on (Select Bank - Loan/EMI - Interest Rate Issue) Step: Calculate EMI drop The expert urged people to calculate the EMI drop using the RBI's EMI calculator. When will RBI cut repo rate again? Mr Khatri, in his post, said that the latest repo rate cut took place because of the below target 4.5 per cent inflation, GDP of 6.7 per cent in Q1 FY26, and a healthy liquidity. If the inflation stays low, the next repo rate cut may take place in August, he said.

Meta CTO says 2025 is a crucial year for its AR/VR business as competition heats up
Meta's chief technology officer (CTO) Andrew Bosworth said that 2025 will be a pivotal year for Reality Labs, the augmented and virtual reality arm of the tech giant. Bosworth, who was one of the first engineers to start working at Meta, also emphasised that the market competition in the AR/VR segment was a good sign. On the surge in popularity of Meta's AI-powered Ray Ban glasses, Bosworth said that the breakthrough device has excited both consumers and competitors. 'Suddenly, we go from toiling in the realms of obscurity to being very much in the world with a product that is very attractive to consumers, and thus competitors. The clock has started on competition coming, and that just means that the progress we make in this year is of disproportionate value to any year before or after it closes,' he said. The Meta executive made these remarks at Bloomberg's tech conference held last week. His comments come at a time when there is emerging competition in the space with Google announcing last month that it is partnering with Gentle Monster and Warby Parker to create smart glasses that run on the tech giant's Android XR operating system. Apple is also reportedly looking to release its own smart glasses by next year. 'The market is actually, especially when it comes to hardware, a trailing indicator. So you look for early indicators. To some degree, you do have to have a level of confidence and taste in-house,' Bosworth said. He also revealed what Sheryl Sandberg, former chief operating officer at Meta, had once told him. 'Sheryl used to always talk about how most companies don't fail because they got beaten by a competitor. Most companies fail because they didn't execute their own plan correctly,' he said. 'And so what I try to do with the team is really focus us, not so much on the competitive landscape as on [whether] we're executing to our standards,' Bosworth added. Talking about the company's ambitious plans for the year, the Meta CTO said, 'What we'll know by the end of the year is whether we executed on our plan or not. What we'll know in five years time is whether that was enough.' In February this year, Meta said that it has sold more than two million pairs of its flagship Ray Ban AI glasses since it was introduced in October 2023. Last month, the wearable became available for pre-order in India in a range of styles, including the new Skyler frame, with prices starting at Rs 29,900 and going up to Rs 35,700 for select models. The smart glasses can be paired to your smartphone using the newly introduced Meta AI app.
