Shares of Aptus Value Housing Finance slipped over 8 percent in early trade on Tuesday after a large block deal hit the counter.
At 9:28 AM, Aptus Value Housing shares were trading at Rs 308.55 on the NSE, down 8.31 percent from the previous close of Rs 336.50. The stock touched a low of Rs 305.50 earlier in the session.

JSW Energy completes Rs 302 crore stake sale in Beempow Energy, exits subsidiary
By Aditya Bhagchandani Published on June 6, 2025, 21:44 IST JSW Energy has officially exited its step-down subsidiary Beempow Energy Private Limited following the completion of a 100% stake sale by O2 Power SG Pte. Ltd. The transaction, valued at Rs 302.66 crore, was completed on June 6, 2025, according to a stock exchange filing. JSW Neo Energy Ltd, a wholly owned subsidiary of JSW Energy, had previously acquired the O2 Power entities. Before this acquisition, 49% of Beempow's shares had already been transferred to EPIC Green Urja Private Limited and Infrastructure Yield Trust schemes. The remaining 51% was transferred as per the original Share Purchase Agreement dated March 14, 2024, and its amendment in September 2024. Beempow Energy had no revenue contribution in FY25, as confirmed by the company in the filing. The acquirers—EPIC Green Urja and SEBI-registered Infrastructure Yield Plus funds—do not belong to JSW's promoter group. The sale does not fall under related party transactions and is outside any scheme of arrangement. This move marks another step in JSW Energy's ongoing business streamlining and portfolio optimization strategy.

India's First Bullet Train Reaches Major Milestone
India's Mumbai-Ahmedabad High-Speed Rail project reached a major breakthrough after completing more than 300 kilometers of viaducts. The MAHSR corridor, spanning 508 kilometers (315 miles), utilizes Shinkansen bullet trains from Japan as part of a testing partnership between the two nations. Newsweek reached out to Indian Railway, the corridor's owner, via email for comment. The MAHSR bullet train is India's largest transportation infrastructure project, and would reduce travel time from up to seven hours to just two hours between Mumbai and Ahmedabad, two of the most important cities in the Indian economy. India's success in high-speed rail, if realized, could signal an increase in competitiveness and the adoption of green mobility in large emerging economies. The NHSRCL reported that as of June 2025, more than 300 kilometers of elevated viaduct structures had been completed, using Full Span Launching Method and Span-by-Span engineering techniques. Fourteen river bridges, seven steel bridges, and five prestressed concrete bridges have now been completed. As a result, the project has entered a critical testing phase, with Japan beginning trials of the first Shinkansen bullet trains built for India. Indian-made trains, developed under the "Make in India" initiative, are currently undergoing initial tests at speeds up to 280 km/h, though the operational target upon project completion is 320 km/h (about 199 mph). The rolling stock is designed with reclining and swiveling seats, air conditioning, modern entertainment systems, and facilities for passengers with disabilities. The MAHSR was designed to be environmentally conscious, and it features over 300,000 noise barriers along its route. The initial cost per bullet train is estimated at Rs 27.86 crore, equivalent to approximately $3.2 million. Civil work has finished at six out of eight stations in Gujarat, while Mumbai's underground terminus at Bandra Kurla Complex is 75 percent excavated. Gujarat's component of the corridor is nearing operational readiness, though delays around Mumbai may halt future progress. An NHSRCL official, in a statement to TheTimes of India: "This project has pioneered the use of indigenously designed and manufactured equipment such as straddle carriers, launching gantries, bridge gantries, and girder transporters. "It marks a first for Indian infrastructure and reflects growing domestic expertise in high-speed rail construction, supported by technical collaboration with Japan." The MAHSR project is expected to commence partial operations in 2026 and launch the first passenger service in Gujarat by 2028, with full connectivity to Mumbai anticipated by 2030. Once completed, it is expected to contribute to India's climate goals by providing large-scale public transit capacity with zero direct emissions.
