Davanagere leads in distribution of digitised land records in Karnataka
Davanagere District Tops With 13,040 Pages, Followed By Belagavi (7,821) And Koppal (7,247) Davanagere: Davanagere district has emerged as a frontrunner in the state's Bhoosuraksha digital land records initiative, having distributed 13,040 digital land record pages to its residents — the highest in the state. According to deputy commissioner GM Gangadharaswamy, six taluk offices have shown substantial public participation by providing online access to 'pahani' and mutation records. Belagavi with 7,821 pages and Koppal with 7,247 pages are behind Davanagere. Once known as the 'Manchester of Karnataka' for its cotton mills, Davanagere now stands at the forefront of revenue document distribution. Bengaluru Urban, however, issued merely 27 pages. Since Feb 2024, the revenue department processed 1.1 crore historical land documents across the state, with Davanagere taluk alone digitising 52.8 lakh pages. The initiative's extension to five additional taluks from Jan 1, 2025, contributed 60.3 lakh more pages. The digitisation effort includes 'pahani', mutation documents, and departmental 'A' and 'B' records. Each taluk contains approximately 1 crore pages of historical records. Currently, 9,000 pages are processed daily, achieving 10 lakh pages monthly, with completion expected by Dec. The public can access these digital records through the revenue department's website for Rs 8 per page. This online system eliminates physical visits and aids in quasi-judicial revenue proceedings. The administration finalised over 2,000 subdivisions and gave priority to survey work. Officials acknowledged progress in e-Swathu distribution despite staff shortages. The revenue department now operates paperless across all administrative levels, from village administrators to district commissioners. The initiative encompasses computerised land records, modern record rooms in taluks, a state database, Aadhaar integration, computerised revenue courts, and synchronised land records. "The project aims to make land records easily accessible online, reducing the burden on revenue offices and ensuring transparency in the functioning of the revenue department," shared a revenue officer. "Citizens can now log in to the Bhoosuraksha website, register, and get the scanned records by paying an amount just like RTC. If a document is not scanned or digitally signed, the request will be raised and will be available within seven days. Also, it is to be noted that citizens have access to documents of all districts. So, if someone has land in another district, they can access it online only," said DC Gangadharaswamy. QUOTE The entire administrative chain, from village officials to the district commissioner's office, has transitioned to paperless operations. The revenue department continues to advance its digital transformation initiatives. GM Gangadharaswamy, deputy commissioner, Davanagere

At record high! Multibagger stock with PE, ROE over 50 hits upper circuit despite weak Dalal Street trends
Multibagger small-cap stock Aayush Wellness continued its astonishing rally on Monday, July 7, hitting a fresh lifetime high of ₹ 223.90 and locking in its 2 percent upper circuit yet again. Even as broader markets showed signs of weakness, investor appetite for this healthcare counter remained strong, buoyed by robust financial metrics and recent strategic shifts. Aayush Wellness has now surged a staggering 1,232 percent from its 52-week low of ₹ 16.81, touched in July 2024. According to the company's BSE disclosure, 'The scrip PE is greater than 50 for previous 4 trailing quarters.' The Price-to-Earnings (PE) ratio—a key valuation metric—has remained elevated for an extended period, indicating that investors continue to pay a premium in anticipation of significant earnings growth. Traditionally, a PE ratio above 50 is seen as lofty, suggesting either rich overvaluation or aggressive forward expectations. The fact that Aayush Wellness has sustained such a valuation for four consecutive quarters implies long-term market confidence or possibly speculative enthusiasm. Adding to the investor optimism is the company's Return on Equity (RoE), which stands at 51.07 percent. This figure far exceeds the 20–25 percent threshold typically seen as excellent and points to highly efficient capital utilization. A RoE of this magnitude often appeals to growth-focused investors, as it signals strong profit generation from shareholders' equity. This combination of high PE and exceptional RoE presents a mixed narrative. While operational performance appears solid, the rich valuations leave little room for earnings disappointment. Any slowdown in growth could trigger a sharp correction. The meteoric rise of Aayush Wellness has turned heads across Dalal Street. From ₹ 2.86 in June 2020 to ₹ 223.90 in July 2025, the stock has delivered jaw-dropping returns of nearly 7,728 percent in five years. An investment of ₹ 1 lakh five years ago would now be worth more than ₹ 78 lakh. In the last 12 months alone, the stock has jumped over 1,079 percent. Just this month, it has gained more than 10 percent, extending a four-month winning streak. It rose over 51 percent in both May and June, and another 58 percent in April. Despite a 15 percent dip in March, investor confidence remained resilient following a 9.5 percent gain in February, even after the sharp 51 percent fall in January. One of the key drivers behind the stock's strong momentum is Aayush Wellness' diversification into preventive healthcare. In April 2025, the company launched tech-enabled health kiosks and support centers aligned with India's E-Sanjeevani telemedicine initiative. These smart health ATMs offer rapid diagnostic tests, digital medical records, and real-time consultations, aiming to bridge the healthcare access gap in semi-urban and rural regions. The first center was launched in Virar, Maharashtra, and the company has earmarked ₹ 25 crore for Phase 1 of the rollout. This pivot from its legacy food business to a tech-enabled wellness platform has repositioned Aayush Wellness as a modern player in India's growing health-tech ecosystem. In a bid to enhance liquidity and attract more retail investors, the company undertook a 1:10 stock split in August 2024, followed by a 1:2 bonus issue in December. These shareholder-friendly measures helped expand the investor base and maintain upward momentum in the stock price.
