By News Desk Published on April 23, 2025, 18:03 IST
Deepak Fertilisers and Petrochemicals Corporation Ltd (DFPCL) announced on April 23, 2025, the incorporation of its wholly owned subsidiary 'Deepak Globalchem Pte. Ltd.' in Singapore. The move is aimed at strengthening the company's global presence in the commodities trading business.
The newly formed entity, Deepak Globalchem Pte. Ltd., has been set up with an initial capital investment of USD 10,000. The subsidiary will primarily focus on the purchase and sale of commodities, expanding DFPCL's reach beyond Indian markets. Although the company has been incorporated, it is yet to commence business operations.
As per regulatory disclosures, the promoters or promoter group of DFPCL hold no direct interest in the new entity beyond their stake in the parent company. The incorporation is classified as a related-party transaction under SEBI regulations due to the wholly owned nature of the subsidiary.
The company stated that the establishment of this subsidiary marks a strategic step in its global expansion and aligns with its long-term business objectives. With Singapore being a global trading hub, the new arm is expected to enhance DFPCL's access to international markets and facilitate more efficient trading operations.
The announcement was made at 3:11 PM on April 23, 2025, and further details are available on the company's official website.

No, your Costco card cannot be used as a substitute for a REAL ID. What Tennesseans should know about travel
While a Costco membership has multiple perks, including bulk discounts and savings on gas, there are a few things the card can't provide. For example, access to board domestic flights or certain federal facilities, unlike the REAL ID. Since the May 7 implementation date, travelers in Tennessee and across the United States have relied on REAL ID — or other acceptable forms of identification — to pass through security and travel domestically. Some, however, have opted for other methods of identification, which has led the Transportation Security Administration (TSA) to recently debunk the rumor that customers' warehouse club cards can substitute for a REAL ID. "We love hotdogs & rotisserie chickens as much as the next person but please stop telling people their Costco card counts as a REAL ID because it absolutely does not," wrote the administration in a post to social media. Despite some membership cards displaying a star and digital options displaying a photo, that doesn't qualify the cards as a valid form of identification. In order to fly, travelers must have either a REAL ID, a valid passport or another federally issued photo ID. As previously reported by USA TODAY, TSA Pacific spokesperson Lorie Dankers told SFGate that the rumor of Costco cards being accepted as official identification pops up every year or so. When people try to use their warehouse club cards at airports, for instance, it could lead to delays and travel headaches, she added. No — Tennesseans are not required to obtain a REAL ID compliant license or identification credential. A REAL ID is not necessary to drive, vote, purchase alcohol or cigarettes, access hospitals, visit the post office, access federal courts or apply for or receive federal benefits such as social security or veterans' benefits. If you don't have a REAL ID, here is the complete list of TSA acceptable IDs: State-issued Enhanced Driver's License U.S. passport U.S. passport card DHS trusted traveler cards (Global Entry, NEXUS, SENTRI, FAST) U.S. Department of Defense ID, including IDs issued to dependents Permanent resident card Border crossing card An acceptable photo ID issued by a federally recognized Tribal Nation/Indian Tribe, including Enhanced Tribal Cards (ETCs). HSPD-12 PIV card Foreign government-issued passport Canadian provincial driver's license or Indian and Northern Affairs Canada card Transportation worker identification credential U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services Employment Authorization Card (I-766) U.S. Merchant Mariner Credential Veteran Health Identification Card (VHIC) Yes — Tennesseans can still obtain a REAL ID, with or without an appointment, although walk-in applicants should anticipate potentially long wait times.

Why some Canadians are alarmed by Mark Carney's pledge to act with urgency
Canadians elected Prime Minister Mark Carney's Liberal government based on its pledge to act with urgency and fix things — the country's economy, its security and its standing on the world stage. But with the unveiling of a bill to supercharge the economy and early efforts to improve the country's adversarial relations with India and China, there's growing concern that Carney's plans to boost Canada could involve unsavoury trade offs. Ask Indigenous leaders who were left out of 'nation-building' meetings or were given just a week to comment on legislation that will fast track infrastructure projects reasonably expected to pass through their treaty-protected territories. Ask Sikh-Canadian leaders who have seen their members targeted for death or violence, allegedly on orders from Indian government agents. Last Friday, they listened as Carney defended his G7 invitation to Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi as one that 'makes sense' based on India's economic power, population and key role in international 'supply chains.' Ask foreign aid organizations, perhaps, if Canada commits to radically increasing defence spending along with NATO allies at a leaders' summit planned for later this month. Carney is not alone in his apparent willingness to step on toes if it means he can move further and faster in responding to the sense of emergency at hand. It's part of a global movement with governments invoking looming threats and emerging risks to push through all sorts of questionable — and sometimes contestable — priorities. The most blatant example is the one that has sparked the economic emergency in Canada. U.S. President Donald Trump's tariffs on imports have been pushed through not with legislation that can be studied, debated and voted upon, but through presidential executive orders invoking real or imagined national emergencies at the Canada-U. S. border. They are premised upon risks from America-bound migrants, fentanyl, steel and cars and, despite initial court rulings that tranches of the tariffs are illegal under U.S. law, they remain in effect. Likewise, the generalized panic that Russia's three-years-and-counting war against Ukraine has instilled in Europe. There is legitimate reason to worry about the longer-term intentions of Russian President Vladimir Putin, a leader who has been unwilling to agree to a ceasefire despite sanctions, despite diplomatic isolation, despite the more recent appeals, threats and exhortations of the Trump administration. But preparations for a potentially wider conflict on the European continent now have German officials talking about rehabilitating long-abandoned bunkers, Poland vowing to build up 'the strongest army in the region,' and Swedish households receiving an alarming 32-page pamphlet from their government entitled: 'In case of crisis or war.' 'To all residents of Sweden: we live in uncertain times,' the booklet begins ominously. It goes on to cover everything from securing one's home to digital safety to instructions on how to stop bleeding to advice about handling pets and talking to children. This is the political and emotional backdrop against which Canada and other NATO member states later this month are expected to back an agreement to steeply increase in their national defence budgets, moving to five per cent of GDP from two per cent. If agreed to, it will result in many billions of dollars going to weapons, tanks, planes and soldiers' salaries. But before those purchases can go ahead, there will be many difficult choices made about how to come up with the funds. Governments always talk about finding budget efficiencies for unexpected priorities, though saving is not a specialty for which politicians are well suited. Even Donald Trump and Elon Musk came up spectacularly short of their savings pledges through the Department of Government Efficiency. More frequently, governments end up robbing Peter in order to pay Paul, as the saying goes — cutting spending in on domain to increase it in another. That is exactly what the United Kingdom did with blunt effect when it announced earlier this year that it would slash foreign aid spending drastically in order to increase the defence budget. 'Few countries have articulated such a direct, one-to-one trade off before between those two areas of public spending,' noted a report from ODI Global , a think tank, that criticized the British government for thinking of defence and foreign-aid spending as an either-or choice. Similar potential trade offs are cause for concern in Canada. Will the urgency to build oil pipelines and assert the country as an 'energy superpower' in new markets come at the cost of Canada's fight against global warming? Carney's reputation as a climate-change warrior is well-established, but his use of the oil-and-gas industry's ' marketing speak ' at a recent meeting first ministers' meeting with provincial premiers has some worried about the economy taking priority over the environment. Inuit Tapiriit Kanatami, the national association representing Canadian Inuit, wasn't even invited to the first ministers' meeting, which concluded with a statement about the need to 'unlock the North's economic potential.' 'It is troubling that in 2025, the Government of Canada is so comfortable with empty rhetoric in place of rightful participation,' the Inuit association said in a news release . The legislation to get Carney's economic fast-track transformation under way — one that the Liberal government wants to pass into law by Canada Day — was decried by the Assembly of First Nations, which had just seven days to provide any concerns about the bill, APTN News reported . There are those who will defend a go-fast approach to governing in extraordinary times. They will warn that there is a greater risk in being sunk by the status quo — the never-ending consultations, the delays, red-tape entanglements. 'The advantage of a wartime mentality lies in the sense of urgency it introduces, and the readiness it encourages to push aside unnecessary bureaucratic barriers,' wrote Lawrence Freedman, an emeritus professor of War Studies at King's College London, in a piece about Russia, Ukraine and Europe. It's a line that can be applied as equally to Ottawa as to Moscow, Kyiv, Paris, Brussels or London. But one person's bureaucratic barrier is the next person's guard rail — a measure ensuring confidence, protecting against damaging errors, saving lives. Moving at high speeds, it can be difficult to spot the difference.

Bitcoin's rally means all of Strategy's purchases are profitable
(Bloomberg) — The mini rally in Bitcoin (BTC-USD) over the past few trading sessions has made every purchase of the cryptocurrency by Michael Saylor's Strategy (MSTR) over the last four plus years profitable. The former MicroStrategy Inc. announced earlier Monday that it had acquired an additional 1,045 tokens for $110.2 million from June 2 to June 8, or for an average price of $105,426 each. Bitcoin was up about 1.7% to $108,022 as of 12:39 p.m. in New York, and has climbed around 7.5% since June 5. Strategy has made around 70 separate purchase announcements since Saylor began to invest cash from the enterprise software maker's balance sheet into Bitcoin in the middle of 2020. That includes 15 purchases of $1 billion or more of Bitcoin, according to data compiled by Bloomberg. As the price of Bitcoin fluctuated over the years, many of the purchases were periodically under water. Saylor, who co-founded the Tysons Corner, Virginia-based firm and and serves as executive chairman, later begin selling common shares as well as preferred stock and debt to fund additional purchases. Strategy owns 582,000 Bitcoin, valued at about $62.9 billion, The overall average price per token is $70,086. The latest purchases were made with $112 million in net proceeds from the sale of the company's Strike preferred stock (STRK) and Strife preferred stock (STRF), according to a filing with the US Securities and Exchange Commission. Last week, Strategy sold another class of securities, called Perpetual Stride Preferred Stock, (STRD). The firm estimated it will realize net proceeds of about $979.7 million from the offering. The top 26 purchase announcements based on the average cost of Bitcoin have all happened in the last 12 months, data compiled by Bloomberg shows. Strategy is the leading corporate holder of the digital currency. Saylor has pledged to raise $84 billion in equity and debt. The Strategy playbook has inspired many copycats looking to share the same success from purchasing and holding cryptocurrencies to boost their share prices. Companies such as Mara, Gamestop, Semler and Trump Media have all announced plans to use cash to buy the cryptocurrency, but none have been able to replicate the successes Saylor's company enjoys. Shares of Strategy rose about 3.4% to $387.30 on Monday, and are up over 3,000% since July 2020. The S&P 500 Index has climbed around 93% during the same period, while Bitcoin has rallied about 1,060%. ©2025 Bloomberg L.P.
