Anil Ambani-led Reliance Infrastructure and Reliance Power saw their shares surge sharply over the past two sessions, supported by significant project-related announcements that lifted investor sentiment. Reliance Infrastructure's stock rose 10.28% in two days to hit a high of Rs 289.25 on the BSE on Wednesday, while Reliance Power zoomed 10.2% to a high of Rs 47.70 over the same period.The rally was sparked after Reliance Infrastructure secured a Letter of Award (LoA) from NHPC for a large solar power and battery storage project, while Reliance Power announced its participation in a new joint venture in Bhutan, boosting its clean energy portfolio.Reliance Infrastructure announced that it had received a Letter of Award from NHPC, a Navratna central public sector enterprise, for a 390 MW inter-state transmission system (ISTS) connected solar power project coupled with 780 MWh of Battery Energy Storage System (BESS).Once commissioned, the project will add 700 MWp of solar DC capacity and 780 MWh of storage capacity to the Reliance Group 's portfolio, further consolidating its leadership in renewable energy solutions.The winning tariff for the project was discovered at Rs 3.13/kWh, positioning it among the most competitively priced offerings in India's energy transition landscape. The tender, floated by NHPC, witnessed strong participation from 15 entities, with 14 qualifying for the e-reverse auction. It was oversubscribed nearly four times, underlining heightened industry interest in dispatchable renewable energy solutions.This development will expand Reliance Group's clean energy pipeline to more than 3 GW of solar DC capacity and 3.5 GWh of storage capacity, making it India's largest player in the integrated solar plus BESS segment.The company highlighted that the bid marks another step in its vision of building scale in renewable energy and energy storage infrastructure.Reliance Power, already holding a renewable energy portfolio of nearly 2.5 GW of solar and 2.5 GWh of BESS capacity, disclosed the incorporation of GDL – Reliance Solar Pte Ltd (GRSPL), a new associate company under a joint venture structure in Bhutan.The entity has been incorporated under Gelephu Mindfulness City, a Special Administrative Region (SAR) in Bhutan, and represents a 50:50 JV between Green Digital Private Limited, a state-owned enterprise of the Royal Government of Bhutan, and Reliance Enterprises Private Limited (REPL).REPL has subscribed to 225,000 shares of USD 100 each in cash, representing a 50% stake, which translates to Reliance Power indirectly holding 25% of GRSPL. The venture falls within the renewable and green energy sector and is expected to expand Reliance Power's international footprint in clean energy projects.The company stated that the acquisition of this stake was carried out at arm's length, and that the associate is a newly incorporated entity yet to commence operations.With this addition, Reliance Power's combined clean energy pipeline now stands at over 3 GW of solar DC capacity and 3.5 GWh of BESS capacity, consolidating its position as India's largest integrated solar + BESS player.: Recommendations, suggestions, views and opinions given by the experts are their own.

EPS: Didn't DMK know CPR was from RSS when it allied with BJP?

Vellore: AIADMK general secretary Edappadi K Palaniswami questioned the stance of DMK MP Kanimozhi that the party will not support BJP-led NDA's vice president candidate C P Radhakrishnan as he belongs to RSS. At a meet at Walajah, Sholinghur, in Ranipet district, EPS asked, "Didn't DMK know that Radhakrishnan had an RSS background when it aligned with BJP earlier? Back then, Radhakrishnan contested as DMK alliance's candidate. When convenient, DMK changes its stand. In fact, DMK campaigned for Radhakrishnan and helped him win. Let them not forget that." EPS alleged that DMK will do anything to remain in power. "They (DMK) will even sign a bond of slavery. Even if they don't vote for C P Radhakrishnan, they must not speak ill of him. Shouldn't we feel proud that a Tamilian holds a high national post," he asked.

The prices of rice, dal, oil, and groceries have all risen sharply, he said. "During AIADMK regime, we kept inflation under control. To check rising prices, we created a price stabilisation fund of 100crore. With this, we procured goods from neighbouring states where they were cheaper and supplied them through cooperative societies in TN," he said. Building materials have become so costly that the poor can no longer dream of building houses, said EPS, adding, "But DMK has no concern."

‘Govt lens on 12k fake Laadki beneficiaries'

Mumbai: Maharashtra Women and Child Development minister Aditi Tatkare on Wednesday said the government is scrutinising the accounts of over 12,000 men who allegedly availed of the benefits under the Mukhyamantri Majhi Laadki Bahin Yojana. Under this flagship scheme, launched by the BJP-led Mahayuti government in August last year, eligible women get financial assistance of Rs 1,500 per month. "We are scrutinising the 12,000 accounts to verify their authenticity and to check whether the monthly assistance meant for women is being credited to a male member of the household," she told reporters. Some people want to prove that the Laadki Bahin scheme is bad, she claimed. The minister said Aadhaar had not been seeded to 50 lakh bank accounts registered for the scheme last year. "It (seeding of Aadhaar) was done because of Laadki Bahin," she You Can Also Check: Mumbai AQI | Weather in Mumbai | Bank Holidays in Mumbai | Public Holidays in Mumbai | Gold Rates Today in Mumbai | Silver Rates Today in Mumbai Stay updated with the latest local news from your city on Times of India (TOI).
