From sisters worldwide, Op Sindoor heroes recieve 65k rakhis
Vadodara: They risked their lives during Operation Sindoor , ventured deep into enemy territory, and defended the borders when Pakistan attacked. This Rakshabandhan, the soldiers of the Indian armed forces received an outpouring of gratitude — 65,000 rakhis sent from women across India and 16 other countries. The initiative is led by Vadodara-based retired teacher Sanjay Bachav, who has been sending rakhis to troops on the border for the past 10 years. Some of these rakhis, he said, will be tied on the wrists of soldiers who took part in Operation Sindoor. "Sisters tie rakhi on the wrists of brothers who promise to protect them. Our armed forces saved our lives and protected us in the truest sense. Sending them rakhis is a small gesture of appreciation," Bachav told TOI. The idea struck him a decade ago when he realised that while festivals are celebrated at home in comfort, soldiers spend them guarding the borders. In 2015, he roped in his students to help pack 2,500 rakhis and courier them to army posts. Word of the initiative soon spread, and women from across India and even abroad began sending him rakhis, which he carefully packed and forwarded to the troops. "The aim was also to instil patriotism and respect for the armed forces among students. We began sending letters along with the rakhis, and some soldiers replied, thanking us for the gesture," he said. This year, women from 16 countries contributed, helping the count reach 65,000 rakhis — the highest yet. Stay updated with the latest local news from your city on Times of India (TOI).

Alembic Pharma dips 3% post Q1 results; MOFSL retains Neutral, here's why
Alembic Pharma share price today: Shares of Vadodara-based pharmaceutical company Alembic Pharma fell around 3.5 per cent on Wednesday, on the NSE, after the company reported its June 2025 quarter (Q1FY26) results. The stock touched an intraday low of ₹913.4. At 1:35 PM, Alembic was trading 1.7 per cent lower at ₹931 on the NSE. In comparison, the NSE Nifty was trading lower by 0.13 per cent at 24,618.45. The stock has crashed around 27 per cent from its 52-week high of ₹1,303.9 touched on October 9, 2024. CATCH STOCK MARKET UPDATES TODAY LIVE In addition, the overall muted sentiment around pharma stocks after US President Donald Trump hinted at as much as a 250 per cent tariff rate in 12 to 18 months also impacted the stock. The Nifty Pharma index fell as much as 1.8 per cent on Wednesday. Alembic Pharmaceuticals Q1 results The company reported a 14 per cent increase in consolidated net profit year-on-year (Y-o-Y) to ₹154.33 crore for the Q1FY26 compared to ₹131.21 crore in the year-ago period. Revenue from operations also rose by 10 per cent Y-o-Y to ₹1,710.72 crore against ₹1,561.73 crore in Q1FY25. Alembic's India branded business witnessed 5 per cent Y-o-Y growth to ₹599 crore in the quarter under review. United States generic revenue also grew 13 per cent to ₹523 crore, on the back of four new launches in the market. The company secured six abbreviated new drug application (ANDA) approvals during the quarter, bringing total approvals to 223. The active pharmaceutical ingredient (API) business grew marginally by 1 per cent, with revenue of ₹261 crore for the quarter. Alembic Pharma Q1 results analysis - Motilal Oswal Financial Services According to analysts at MOFSL, Alembic Pharma delivered a largely in-line performance for 1QFY26 as superior execution in the export market led to Y-o-Y growth in revenue/Ebitda/PAT for the quarter. However, this growth was offset, to some extent, by a muted show in the domestic formulation (DF) and API segments. Alembic Pharma maintained its growth momentum in the US market on the back of new launches. Notably, upcoming introductions such as g-Entresto have the potential to further strengthen growth in the US generics segment. That said, a broader scope of business would be necessary to enhance capacity utilisation and, in turn, improve the profitability of the US generics segment, MOFSL said in a note. "After a muted performance in FY25, ALPM is working to improve business prospects across its key markets. Growth in export markets is strengthening on the back of new launches and superior supply chain management. Considering these aspects, we expect a 24 per cent earnings compound annual growth rate (CAGR) over FY25-27. The current valuation largely factors in the earnings upside," the brokerage said. MOFSL has maintained a 'Neutral' rating on the stock with a target price of ₹990. About Alembic Pharma Incorporated in 2010, Alembic Pharmaceuticals is engaged in the business of development, manufacturing, and marketing of pharmaceutical products, including formulations and active pharmaceutical ingredients. Its products can be broadly classified into active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs), formulations, and international generics. Alembic's customers include pharmaceutical companies for APIs, healthcare facilities and patients for formulations, and healthcare facilities and patients for international generics.

Founded in 2005 by former Siemens engineer Jignesh Patel, the company manufactures and installs key power distribution infrastructure including Ring Main Units (RMUs), Compact Substations, and Gas Insulated Switchgear, critical to India's grid upgrades, renewable energy evacuation, and smart city projects. Parth Electricals operates under a licensing arrangement with Schneider Electric SAS, France, to manufacture and sell type-tested RMUs and compact substations.

In March 2024, Parth supplied 225 RMUs to UGVCL under the Revamped Distribution Sector Scheme (RDSS). Its client list includes Tata Steel, Adani, IOCL, Reliance, and Essar, with project executions including emergency GIS deployment at Jamnagar refinery and 220kV GIS for Tata Steel at Kalinganagar.

On the sustainability front, Parth operates a rooftop solar plant at its Vadodara unit, has partnered with Tata Power Renewable Energy Ltd for clean energy at its Odisha unit, and refurbishes used RMUs to reduce industrial waste. 'Whether it's smart cities, renewable parks, or public transport electrification, our focus is to deliver safe, scalable, and localised power solutions that India needs for the next 25 years,' said Jignesh Patel, Chairman & Managing Director, Parth Electricals.
