PM Modi arrives in Ghana, receives guard of honour and 21-gun salute
Prime Minister Narendra Modi arrived in Ghana on Wednesday, marking the start of his five-nation tour. President John Mahama gave him a warm welcome at the airport. Upon his arrival, PM Modi received a guard of honour and a 21-gun salute. At the invitation of Ghana's President John Dramani Mahama, PM Modi will visit Ghana on 2-3 July. Ghana is a valued partner in the Global South and plays an important role in the African Union and the Economic Community of West African States. "I look forward to my exchanges aimed at further deepening our historical ties and opening up new windows of cooperation, including in the areas of investment, energy, health, security, capacity building and development partnership. As fellow democracies, it will be an honour to speak at the Parliament of Ghana," MEA said in a statement. In the second leg of his visit, PM Modi will pay an official visit to Trinidad and Tobago (T & T) from July 3-4. "I will meet President Christine Carla Kangaloo, who was the Chief Guest at this year's Pravasi Bhartiya Divas, and Prime Minister Kamla Persad-Bissessar, who has recently assumed office for the second term. Indians first arrived in Trinidad and Tobago 180 years ago. This visit will provide an opportunity to rejuvenate the special bonds of ancestry and kinship that unite us," the statement said. From Port of Spain, he will travel to Buenos Aires, marking the first bilateral visit by an Indian Prime Minister to Argentina in 57 years. "Argentina is a key economic partner in Latin America and a close collaborator in the G20. I look forward to my discussions with President Javier Milei, whom I also had the pleasure of meeting last year. We will focus on advancing our mutually beneficial cooperation, including in the areas of agriculture, critical minerals, energy, trade, tourism, technology, and investment," the statement said. PM Modi will attend the BRICS Summit in Rio de Janeiro on July 6-7. "As a founding member, India is committed to BRICS as a vital platform for cooperation among emerging economies. Together, we strive for a more peaceful, equitable, just, democratic and balanced multipolar world order. On the sidelines of the Summit, I will also meet several world leaders. I will travel to Brasilia for a bilateral State Visit, the first by an Indian Prime Minister in nearly six decades. This visit will provide an opportunity to strengthen our close partnership with Brazil and work with my friend, President H.E. Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva, on advancing the priorities of the Global South," the statement added. His final destination will be Namibia, a trusted partner with whom India shares a common history of struggle against colonialism.

SEBI opens 6-month special window for re-lodgement of transfer deeds from July 7
Mumbai: In order to facilitate ease of investing and to secure investors' rights, capital market regulator Securities and Exchange Board of India (SEBI) on Wednesday decided to open a special window only for re-lodgement of transfer deeds, lodged before April 1, 2019 deadline, and were either returned, rejected or not attended due to deficiency in the documents or other reasons. The window will be open for 6 months-starting from July 7, 2025, to January 6, 2026. "During this period, the securities that are re-lodged for transfer shall be issued only in demat mode," the market regulator said in a circular. The market watchdog asked listed companies, RTAs and Stock Exchanges to advertise the opening of this special window through various media, including print and social media, on a bimonthly basis during the six-month period. "This issue was discussed in a Panel of Experts, which included RTAs, listed companies, and legal experts. Based on the discussion, the panel recommended that to alleviate the issue faced by the investors that missed the March 31, 2021, deadline for re-lodgement, one more opportunity may be granted for them to re-lodge such shares for transfer," the market regulator said in a statement. Notably, the transfer of securities in physical mode was discontinued with effect from April 1, 2019. Subsequently, the market regulator clarified that transfer deeds lodged prior to the deadline and rejected or returned due to a deficiency in the documents may be re-lodged with the requisite documents. Later, March 31, 2021, was fixed as the cut-off date for re-lodgement of transfer deeds. The decision came after the SEBI received requests from investors as well as RTAs and listed companies who had missed the timelines for re-lodging their documents for transfer of securities. Meanwhile, last month, the market regulator introduced key reforms to enhance the efficiency, inclusivity, and investor-friendliness of Indian financial markets. These decisions were approved during SEBI's board meeting chaired by Tuhin Kanta Pandey on June 18.

FII holdings in IT at 13-year low: Time to buy or brace for more pain?
Investor sentiment in India's IT services sector continues to remain bearish as foreign institutional investor (FII) holding has plummeted to a 13-year low. Domestic institutional ownership has also seen a marked decline. According to BNP Paribas, such pessimism could signal a contrarian buying opportunity — historically, low investor holdings have often preceded IT sector outperformance. The brokerage notes that the Indian IT sector is currently trading at a dividend yield of 3.2%, among the highest in the last decade, providing a cushion to valuations amid uncertainty. Despite weak sentiment, key indicators such as deal wins, pricing improvements, and hiring trends point to a relatively stable demand environment. Infosys, Persistent Favoured; Wipro, TCS Expected to Lag BNP Paribas expects Q1FY26 performance to diverge across Tier I IT firms. Infosys and Persistent Systems are forecast to post strong numbers, while TCS and Wipro may report weaker results. Infosys is projected to deliver 2.1% constant currency (CC) revenue growth, defying seasonal headwinds, whereas large-cap peers could see a -1% to -2.5% QoQ CC revenue decline. Mid-cap players like Persistent may see QoQ dollar revenue growth of 1%–4%, supported by operational efficiency and favourable currency movements. EBIT margins are likely to remain flat or decline among large caps, while mid-caps could witness improvement. Recovery Signs from Global Peers Encouraging signals from global players also fuel cautious optimism. Accenture's Q4FY25 guidance, placed at the higher end of its range, implies a rebound in organic growth. BNP Paribas highlights a shift in client conversations from 'pause' to 'leapfrog' initiatives. The brokerage maintains a positive outlook on Infosys, TCS, Persistent Systems, and HCL Technologies, while downgrading LTIMindtree to neutral following recent stock gains. It remains wary of Tech Mahindra and Wipro, citing continued underperformance risks. Sector Guidance and Outlook For FY26, Infosys may revise its growth guidance to 1.5–3.5%, while HCL Tech is expected to retain a 2–5% CC growth outlook. Wipro could project a modest -1% to +1% QoQ CC growth for Q2FY26. BNP Paribas concludes that despite short-term headwinds and the possibility of trade tension escalations, the bearish investor positioning is already pricing in much of the downside. If macroeconomic indicators stay supportive — particularly in the US — the current levels could offer long-term accumulation opportunities in select IT names.
