Training academy's aircraft hardlands at Baramati airport & veers off runway, trainee pilot safe
Pune: A trainee pilot had a close shave on Saturday morning after an aircraft of Redbird Flight Training Academy hardlanded at Baramati airport and veered off the runway, after he sighted a flock of birds just before touchdown. A source said the sole trainee pilot in the aircraft did not suffer any major injuries. Deputy superintendent of police (DSP), Baramati, Sudarshan Rathod told TOI, "No criminal offence has been registered pertaining to the incident. AAIB (Aircraft Accident Investigation Bureau) will investigate the matter and record a detailed statement of the pilot in the process. We will get it in a few days. Only then, the exact reason of the accident can be ascertained. " A senior official of Redbird Flight Training Academy said, "The (trainee) pilot was flying solo on a single-engine JC 2008 aircraft of Italian make. A flock of birds came in front of the plane just before landing, distracting him. As a result, the aircraft had a heavy touchdown and its nose wheel was damaged. The instructor was there and the whole incident was recorded on CCTV cameras." He said, "The (trainee) pilot was instructed to make a go-round, following which the aircraft was airborne again. As the damaged nose wheel got depressed, the plane made a rough landing." Sources identified the trainee pilot as Vivek Yadav. The airstrip the Redbird Academy uses for training is managed and maintained by the MIDC (Maharashtra Industrial Development Corporation).

Why The Trade Desk Stock Tumbled Today
Key Points The Trade Desk's second-quarter results were in line with estimates. The walled gardens it's competing with appear to be getting stronger. Revenue growth is expected to decelerate in the third quarter. 10 stocks we like better than The Trade Desk › Shares of The Trade Desk (NASDAQ: TTD) were taking a dive for the second time in three earnings reports today. The leading independent demand-side platform (DSP) in adtech posted results that were in line with expectations, but its guidance confirmed that competition was becoming more of a threat to the business.

Revenue rose 19% to $694 million, which topped the consensus at $686 million.

YSRCP leader beats up SC youth in Tirupati, booked
TIRUPATI; An assault on a Scheduled Caste (SC) youth in Tirupati has sparked a political storm, with allegations aimed at followers of former MLA Bhumana Karunakar Reddy. YSRCP supporter Anil Reddy has been booked for allegedly kidnapping and attacking the youth, Pawan, prompting a heated exchange between the ruling TDP and YSRCP on Thursday. Anil Reddy was booked under the SC/ST (Prevention of Atrocities) Act. While Anil Reddy is being questioned, co-accused Jagadish Reddy and Dinesh Royal remain at large. Pawan's whereabouts are also unknown. Tirupati Deputy Superintendent of Police (DSP) Bhakthavatsalam revealed that Pawan, son of Jayaraj from Pulicherla in Chittoor district, had rented motorbikes from SVP Bike Riders & Rentals, run by Anil and Jagga Reddy, but failed to return them or pay dues. He was found near the railway station, taken to Anil Reddy's office, and assaulted, the DSP said. A case was filed based on a complaint by Pawan's father. The police are also investigating how the lathi used in the attack was obtained. In response to the incident, Home Minister Vangalapudi Anitha directed the Tirupati SP to take strict action. 'No one involved in disrupting peace and law & order in Tirupati will be spared,' she said. District in-charge and Revenue Minister Anagani Satya Prasad blamed the YSRCP for fostering rowdyism and alleged that the accused had taken shelter at Karunakar Reddy's residence before he was arrested. 'The public is rejecting such behaviour, as seen in Pulivendula,' the minister added, expressing concern over Pawan's health condition and whereabouts. Meanwhile, YSRCP leaders accused the police of targeting their supporters, claiming the viral video showed a JSP leader, not a YSRCP worker. They alleged that the police had booked YSRCP leader to implicate them in the incident.

DSP launches first Flexicap Quality-Only Index Fund, aims for 18% CAGR
DSP Mutual Fund on Thursday rolled out the DSP Nifty500 Flexicap Quality 30 Index Fund, India's first low-cost flexicap index fund combining a quality-only stock basket with dynamic market cap allocation driven by momentum signals. The fund tracks the Nifty500 Flexicap Quality 30 Index, which identifies 30 fundamentally strong companies—10 each from large, mid, and small caps—based on factors like high return on equity (ROE), low debt, and consistent earnings growth. Stocks within each segment get equal weight, ensuring no single company dominates. This fund will mirror India's first flexicap index, designed to help investors navigate shifting equity markets confidently. "The new fund addresses the most common challenges faced by equity investors: identifying high quality stocks, automating optimal allocation to large, mid and small caps and doing all this at a low cost," DSP MF said in a statement. How It Works Step 1 – Quality Filter: Only high-ROE, low-debt, earnings-growth stocks make it to the list. Step 2 – Flexicap Momentum Allocation: The index checks the SMID-to-large-cap ratio against its 200-day moving average every quarter. If small & midcaps (SMID) outperform, SMID allocation rises to 67%, large caps drop to 33%. If large caps lead, allocations reverse. Step 3 – Quarterly Rebalance: Fully rules-based, no human discretion. Performance Track Record Since October 2009, the index has delivered a CAGR of 18.1%, outperforming the Nifty 500 TRI's 13.0%. In volatile markets, quality focus has helped limit drawdowns. Over rolling 5-year SIP periods, median returns were 20.3% vs. 15.8% for Nifty 500 TRI. Why this matters for investors Most retail investors struggle with timing markets and switching between large-, mid-, and small-cap funds—often hurting returns due to costs and taxes. This fund's passive, rules-based structure removes the need for constant monitoring and avoids exit loads or tax outflows from switching strategies. This fund design is based on first principles, and investors benefit from investing in it as it removes the need to constantly monitor market segments or switch between schemes- something that most end up doing, incurring costs along the way. Its passive structure also means rebalancing occurs without tax outflow or exit loads, not typically available in DIY or actively managed flexi/multi-cap strategies. 'Two conditions are important for investors to achieve compounding - investing in high quality businesses at reasonable valuations. The quality factor is going through sharp price and time correction. We have always believed in launching funds when the strategy is in low cycle. Hence, we are introducing the first flexicap index fund which invests in 30 high quality companies across all market caps.' said Kalpen Parekh, Managing Director & CEO, DSP Mutual Fund. 'DSP Nifty500 Flexicap Quality 30 Index Fund brings together the best of both worlds, dynamic flexicap allocation and high-quality stock selection, using a transparent, rules-based approach. It's designed to reduce noise, eliminate complexity, and help investors participate meaningfully across market cycles,' said Anil Ghelani, CFA – Head – Passive Investments & Products at DSP Mutual Fund. For investors seeking all-weather equity exposure, this fund offers: High-quality stock selection Automatic market cap rebalancing Low costs & tax efficiency A proven performance track record
