By Aman Shukla Published on June 9, 2025, 14:06 IST
TEMBO Defence, a subsidiary of TEMBO Global Industries Limited (NSE: TEMBO), has announced a major step forward in its expansion strategy with the receipt of a comfort letter from the Maharashtra Industrial Development Corporation (MIDC) for the allocation of 100 acres of land in Amravati, near Nagpur.
This strategic land allocation marks a pivotal milestone for TEMBO Defence as it prepares to establish a state-of-the-art facility dedicated to arms and ammunition manufacturing. The upcoming plant will significantly boost domestic defence production, aligning with the Indian government's 'Make in India' and 'Atmanirbhar Bharat' initiatives aimed at strengthening national self-reliance in critical sectors.
Mr. Sanjay J. Patel, Managing Director of TEMBO Global Industries Ltd., emphasized the importance of this development:
'This land allocation is a monumental step towards our vision of contributing to India's self-reliance in the defence manufacturing sector. The upcoming facility will not only create significant employment opportunities in the region but also play a pivotal role in strengthening India's defence infrastructure.'
The new facility is expected to generate substantial employment in the Vidarbha region and enhance India's strategic capabilities by supporting indigenous manufacturing

A Fast-Casual Taiwanese Spot Joins the Midtown Lunch Fray
Yumpling, a Taiwanese fast-casual food business, began as a flea market stand before expanding with a Midtown food truck under the same name. In 2020, owner Chris Yu and partners opened a full-on takeout restaurant in Long Island City, which, over the past five years, has cemented itself as a standby in the Queens neighborhood. Now, he has returned to the neighborhood where it all began, opening a new outpost of Yumpling that joins the Midtown lunch fray, a couple of blocks from where the food truck launched. First announced in 2024, Yumpling Midtown is finally open as of this week: 'Truck days have proven that our food will do well in the city and, since we are more fast-casual than dine-in, we are hoping the young millennial work crowd will treat us well,' Yu told Eater upon initially announcing the expansion. The menu is similar to the LIC restaurant: their pan-fried dumplings (pork, chicken, veggie, or a mix), rice bowls (with fried pork chop, crispy chicken, lou rou fan, or basil eggplant), and noodle dishes, such as the classic beef noodle soup. There are a few seats, but the intent is to keep things moving. It follows on the heels of another Taiwanese spot that opened in the neighborhood last month, Jabä, over on East 58th Street, which showcases the cuisine in a sit-down environment. Yumpling Midtown is nearby at 16 E. 52nd Street, near Madison Avenue, accessible to office workers farther east and those closer to Rockefeller Center. Yumpling's set-up brings to mind spots like Milu, the fast-casual Chinese American bowl spot that debuted in Gramercy from Eleven Madison Park alum, Connie Chung, during the pandemic (it opened and then closed in Williamsburg, and there's a second remaining outpost in Battery Park's Brookfield Place). In the past five years, there have been several new bowl spots diversifying office lunch options in Manhattan, taking it to far more intriguing and personal places than your average Chipotle. These include the Indian-leaning and well-financed Inday, which has rebranded and cannibalized another bowl spot; Dùndú, just south of Grand Central, with Nigerian bowls; Sopo, a Korean bowl spot near Penn Station; and ThisBowl, a poke-ish bowl spot hailing from Sydney, now with two Manhattan locations, that has managed to make fast-casual cool in a chrome setting that could be a fashion boutique.

Pakistan ramps up defence spending by 20 percent after India conflict
Pakistan has announced a major boost to defence spending in its new budget, just weeks after coming to the brink of a fifth war with archrival India. The budget for the fiscal year 2025-2026, announced by the government on Tuesday, ramps up defence spending to 2.55 trillion rupees ($9bn), up 20 percent from the current fiscal year, which ends this month. The hike in defence expenditures comes amid a cut in overall spending, which is shrinking by 7 percent to 17.57 trillion rupees ($62bn). The budget reflects Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif's goals of spurring growth while boosting Pakistan's military in the wake of the most serious conflict between the nuclear-armed neighbours in nearly three decades. The bitter foes attacked each other with fighter jets, missiles, drones and artillery for several days in May before a ceasefire was hostilities were triggered by a deadly attack by gunmen in Pahalgam in Indian-administered Kashmir on April 22, which India accused Pakistan of supporting. Pakistan denied any role in the attack. A 20 percent boost in defence spending had been expected by economists, who said it would likely be offset by cuts in development spending, the Reuters news agency reported. India's defence spending in its 2025-2026 fiscal year, running from April to March, was set at $78.7bn, up nearly 10 percent from the previous year, and it has indicated it will ramp up its spending further in future budgets.

Pakistan hikes defense budget 20% following conflict with India, but overall spending is cut
ISLAMABAD (AP) — Pakistan Tuesday hiked defense spending by 20% following last month's deadly conflict with India. The government of Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif announced the increase as part of the budget for the fiscal year 2025-26, in which overall spending will be cut by 7% to 17.57 trillion rupees ($62 billion). Pakistan and India were pushed to the brink of war earlier this year after a gun massacre of tourists in Indian-controlled Kashmir, marking the biggest breakdown in relations between them since 2019. Weeks of tension followed, culminating in missile and drone strikes that resulted in dozens of fatalities on both sides of the border. Finance Minister Muhammad Aurangzeb said the government was allocating 2.55 trillion rupees ($9 billion) for defense compared with 2.12 trillion rupees in the previous budget. India in February increased its defense spending by 9.5%. Sharif told the Cabinet: 'All economic indicators are satisfactory. After defeating India in a conventional war, now we have to go beyond it in the economic field as well.' Opposition members of the National Assembly verbally abused Aurangzeb, chanting slogans, throwing scrunched-up copies of the budget at him, whistling, and banging their desks as he gave his address. The coming year's defense allocation is considerably more than the government's expenditure on higher education, agricultural development, and mitigating climate-related risks, to which Pakistan is especially prone.
