Nagpur solar capital? Waaree, Reliance, B'luru firm seek land for solar panel projects
Nagpur: The solar power equipment manufacturing sector is set to expand in the city with more players entering the fray. After Avaada Electro began production last month, three more companies are set to start operations at Butibori. Reliance Infrastructure has put up a request before Maharashtra Industrial Development Corporation (MIDC) to acquire over 1,000 acres of land. Waaree Energies, which has been allotted 300 acres in Butibori Industrial Estate of MIDC, has applied for an additional 700 acres, said sources. A Bengaluru-based company, Powerin Urja, has also put up a request for 200 acres near the city. MIDC has initiated the process of acquiring land on behalf of the companies, said sources. The three companies plan to manufacture solar panels, a key component for generating solar power. The developments indicate Nagpur will soon emerge as a hub for solar power equipment manufacturing, said sources. Last month, Avaada Electro, the first in the sector to start operations, began manufacturing solar panels and emerged as the first to make 720Wp solar panels in the country. The company also plans to manufacture solar cells by October. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Guayaquil: Inicia hoy con Amazon CFD y construye un segundo ingreso.

"Avaada has started production in record time. With this, other companies are expected to follow suit. Moreover, incentives offered by the state govt are much more lucrative compared to other states, on account of refunds available on state goods and service tax (SGST)," said industrial consultant Julfesh Shah.

Toy company challenges Trump tariffs at US Supreme Court; claims misuse of emergency powers; seeks urgent ruling
This is a representative AI image An Illinois-based toy maker, Learning Resources Inc., has taken its tariff battle to the US Supreme Court, urging the justices to swiftly rule on the legality of former President Donald Trump's trade tariffs. In legal documents, the company emphasised the urgency, citing "the tariffs' massive impact on virtually every business and consumer across the Nation, and the unremitting whiplash caused by the unfettered tariffing power the President claims." The company contends that Trump overstepped his authority by using an emergency powers law to impose tariffs without congressional approval. It filed the appeal in a bid to bypass ongoing proceedings in lower courts. Despite securing an initial lower court victory, the ruling remains suspended whilst an appeals court evaluates a similar decision that more broadly challenges Trump's tariffs. Currently, Trump maintains authority to collect tariffs under emergency powers legislation, with arguments scheduled for late July. The Supreme Court traditionally avoids cases before appeals courts reach decisions, reducing the likelihood of granting the expedited hearing requested by the company. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like 임플란트, 지금 시작하세요 [자세히 보기] 임플란트 더 알아보기 Undo Learning Resources CEO Rick Woldenberg highlighted the current impact of tariffs and uncertainty, particularly concerning the approaching back-to-school and holiday periods, which typically generate their highest annual sales. "All the people that are raising their prices are doing it with a sense of dread," Woldenberg told The Associated Press. But, "we do not have a choice. We absolutely do not have a choice," he added. The company's legal representatives proposed scheduling arguments for late summer or early autumn. The Trump administration's defence maintains that emergency powers legislation authorises presidential control over imports during national emergencies, considering the persistent trade deficit as such an emergency. Trump presents tariffs as mechanisms to encourage domestic manufacturing, generate Treasury revenue, and negotiate more advantageous international trade agreements. Woldenberg described investing substantial resources into diversifying his company's supply chain, whilst acknowledging the process as lengthy and unpredictable. "I think that our case raises uniquely important questions that this administration won't accept unless the Supreme Court rules on them," he said. The family-owned enterprise, located in Vernon Hills, Illinois, produces items including the Pretend & Play Calculator Cash Register for $43.99 and Botley the Coding Robot for $57.99.

Cachar bizman held for Rs 25cr GST evasion through fake ITC claims
Silchar: State GST department's Silchar unit has arrested a Cachar-based businessman for allegedly evading goods and services tax (GST) to the tune of Rs 25 crore through fake billing and fraudulent input tax credit (ITC) claims. The accused, Ishak Ahmed, listed as the director of Khushi Digital Payment Private Limited, was arrested following a raid at his business premises in Pailapool, Cachar. The raid was carried out based on inputs received from the department's Guwahati headquarters. Officials on Tuesday said documents and computers were seized during the operation. Ahmed, a resident of Alipur in the district, was taken into custody after he failed to produce valid documents for business transactions estimated to be worth Rs 100 crore. "We had specific inputs that Rs 15 crore worth of fake ITC was availed, and Rs 10 crore was passed on to other states — amounting to a total tax evasion of Rs 25 crore," said Ronit Roy, assistant commissioner of state tax on Tuesday. "Under Section 69 of the CGST Act, 2017, we are empowered to arrest individuals involved in evasion above Rs 5 crore," he added. Roy said Ahmed was summoned to produce receipts and transaction-related documents. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like 5 Books Warren Buffett Wants You to Read In 2025 Blinkist: Warren Buffett's Reading List Undo "We deferred the hearing twice. On June 14, during the second hearing, he submitted documents that appeared forged. He claimed that a chartered accountant based in Delhi held the original papers and requested two more days, but even after three days, he failed to submit them," Roy told the media. Officials also found discrepancies in the company's directorship. While Ahmed claimed that ownership had changed hands last year, one of the listed directors denied involvement and has lodged a police complaint against him, alleging misuse of identity. Manjit Kumar Borah, joint commissioner of state tax, confirmed the arrest, saying "Following legal procedures, he was arrested and produced before the court. He has been remanded to 14 days of judicial custody. This is one of the major cases of GST fraud in the region through fake ITC claims." Sources in the department said that more arrests may follow as the investigation progresses, indicating that Ahmed may be part of a larger network involved in tax fraud.
