Delhi meat shops shut during Sawan despite no official order, owners report losses
Written by Sharmistha Shivhare Several meat shop owners across Delhi-NCR have voluntarily shut their establishments during the Sawan month, despite no formal directive from authorities. While the closures aligned with religious sensitivities around the Kanwar Yatra, vendors said they are incurring significant financial losses. Mohd Nazir, who runs a shop in Indirapuram, has kept his shutters down since the first day of Sawan. 'There was no circular this year, but I've been closing my shop for four years now. I rely on rent from another property to manage this period,' he said, pointing to the need for alternative income to stay afloat. Sanu Qureshi, who owns multiple outlets across NCR, said he received administrative communication on July 10 and shut his shops the next day. 'I've been doing this for three years. Every Sawan, I lose around Rs 20,000. I make up for it with side work, but the loss still stings,' he said. Irshad Qureshi, General Secretary of the Delhi Meat Merchant Association, clarified that licensed shop owners were not forced to close. 'The mayor only appealed to shopowners to shut down out of respect for Kanwariyas. It wasn't an order,' he said. Earlier this month, the Municipal Corporation of Delhi (MCD) had said that it can't pass an order directing that meat shops along the Kanwar Yatra routes be shut, since no such provision exists under the Delhi Municipal Corporation (DMC) Act, 1957. 'We will make a request to meat shop owners to voluntarily shut their shops in deference to the religious sentiments associated with the Kanwar Yatra,' Mayor Raja Iqbal Singh had told PTI. The annual Kanwar Yatra will culminate on July 25. (Sharmistha Shivhare is an intern with The Indian Express)

Amid growing Russian threat, Poland eyes stake in satellite firm that helped Ukraine fight back
Amid growing threat to Europe from Russia, Poland is planning to acquire a stake in satellite imagery company that has been providing applications to Ukraine that have helped it plan the defences against the Russian invasion. read more Servicemen of the 24th Mechanized brigade, named after King Danylo, of the Ukrainian Armed Forces fire a BM-21 Grad multiple-launch rocket system toward Russian troops, on a front line, amid Russia's attack on Ukraine, near the town of Chasiv Yar in Donetsk region, Ukraine February 15, 2025. (Photo: Reuters) Amid fears that Vladimir Putin wants to expand his aggression on Europe, Poland has planned to acquire a stake in a satellite company that has helped Ukraine in the war with Russia. The satellite company Iceye, founded by CEO Rafał Modrzewski and his partner Pekka Laurila, has tracked Russian troop deployment. Ahead of the Russian invasion of Ukraine in February 2022, Iceye supplied Ukraine with images of Russian troop movements that helped plan the defences better. STORY CONTINUES BELOW THIS AD The Financial Times has reported that Poland is in the final stages to acquire a stake in Iceye. The size of the stake has not been disclosed. In recent years, particularly after the Russian invasion of Ukraine, satellite imagery and satellite internet have emerged highly strategic assets for nations. As most of these organisations are based in the United States, and European nations are no longer assured that President Donald Trump will allow European nations to maintain access to these companies. Notably, after the spat at the White House, the Trump administration blocked Ukraine from accessing Maxar. From Arctic shipping to Ukraine war Iceye was founded in 2014 to provide radar imagery of moving ice blocks to Arctic shipping companies. However, as tensions raged in Europe as Russia prepared to invade Ukraine, Iceye pivoted to providing satellite imagery related to the war in Ukraine. It has now become a provider of military applications and is one of the many firms trying to capitalise on Trump dictating US firms' dealings with European nations, such as Maxar or Starlink. Modrzewski told the FT they set up Iceye with backing from Aalto University's Center for Entrepreneurship when they were students and now want to expand its production capacity at least fourfold to meet surging demand for its satellites. They currently manufacture up to 25 satellites and raise it to 100-150 a year. STORY CONTINUES BELOW THIS AD Poland will invest in the company via the country's nation's development bank and follows the defence ministry's $230 million purchase in May of six satellites. In recent years, as European nations have found their access to US-based tech giants' blocked or disrupted by politics, they have sought to develop alternatives. At times, access to Elon Musk-owned Starlink has also been compromised because of politics. As a result, European nations have explored alternative satellite internet services providers.

Tata Capital Limited, the financial services arm of Tata Sons, could raise approximately Rs 13,370 crore from its upcoming initial public offering (IPO) if priced at Rs 281 per share — the same level at which the company conducted a rights issue in March this year. According to the updated pre-filed draft red herring prospectus (DRHP), the IPO comprises a fresh issue of up to 210 million equity shares and an offer for sale (OFS) of up to 265.82 million equity shares by Tata Sons and the International Finance Corporation (IFC). The total offer size, therefore, stands at 475.82 million equity shares. At Rs 281 per share, the fresh issue could garner around Rs 5,901 crore, while the OFS portion may yield Rs 7,469 crore, aggregating to a total of Rs 13,370 crore. The final IPO pricing will be determined closer to the offer period, based on investor response through book-building and consultations with investment bankers. First listing of a core Tata financial services entity This will mark the first public listing of a core Tata Group financial services company. Tata Capital, which was recently merged with Tata Motors Finance, has established a diversified lending portfolio spanning retail, SME, infrastructure, and corporate segments. As per the draft prospectus, the company reported a consolidated net worth of Rs 16,250 crore and profit after tax of Rs 2,142 crore as of March 31, 2024. OFS details and listing objectives The proposed listing is expected to unlock value for Tata Sons, broaden Tata Capital's capital base, and provide retail investors an opportunity to participate in the group's financial services growth. Tata Sons, the holding company of the Tata Group, is offering up to 230 million shares in the OFS, while IFC is divesting up to 35.82 million shares.
