At 11:00 am, Tata Power shares were trading at ₹400.7 per share, down by 1.4 per cent on the National Stock Exchange. In comparison, the Nifty50 was trading in green, up by 95 points or 0.37 per cent at 25,549.

Currently, Tata Power shares are down by more than 19 per cent from the 52-week high level of ₹494.85, touched last September. Why are Tata Power shares falling today?
The decline in Tata Power shares came after the arbitration tribunal ordered the company, with a majority of 2:1, to pay damages worth $490 million with simple interest of 5.33 per cent, from November 30, 2020, till the amount is paid. Tata Power, however, mentioned that it is still in the process of reviewing the order.
"The three member arbitral tribunal, with a majority of 2:1, has partially allowed the claim that Kleros had filed in these arbitration proceedings, and has awarded Kleros, damages in the sum of (a) $490,320,000 with simple interest of 5.33 per cent from November, 30 2020 till the same is paid and (b) cost of $8,289,020.46 with simple interest of 5.33 per cent from July 1, 2025 till the same is paid," the company's exchange filing read. The case is related to Tata Power's Russian mining partner, Kleros Capital Partners. The mining firm got into a dispute with the Tata group company over a non-disclosure agreement tied to a proposed project in Russia. Kleros reportedly claimed that Tata Power broke confidentiality and non-circumvention terms.

India shared concerns with US over Russia energy sanctions
New Delhi is concerned about a bill to impose 500% tariffs on countries that buy Russian oil New Delhi has expressed its concerns with Washington over a bill that proposes to impose 500% tariffs on countries that are doing business with Russia, Indian Foreign Minister S. Jaishankar said on Wednesday. Jaishankar, who was in Washington for a foreign ministers meeting of the Quad (a grouping of India, Japan, the US and Australia), said that India, a major buyer of Russian oil, was aware of the potential implications of the proposed bill. "Regarding Senator Lindsey Graham's bill, any development which is happening in the US Congress is of interest to us if it impacts our interest or could impact our interest," the Indian foreign minister said at a press briefing. "I think our concerns and our interests in energy security have been made conversant to him. So, we will then have to cross that bridge when we come to it, if we come to it." The bill is part of a broader effort to pressure Russia, amid ongoing tensions related to the Ukraine conflict. Graham has said that it "will be a tool in (US President Donald Trump's) toolbox to bring Russian President Vladimir Putin to the table." Indian diplomats and officials are in touch with the Republican senator who sponsored the bill, which has Trump's backing, according to the news outlet India Today. Since 2022, India and China have significantly increased their oil purchases from Russia. In May, New Delhi emerged as the second-largest buyer of Russian fossil fuels, with estimated purchases totaling $4.9 billion, of which crude constituted about 72% of the total value, according to the Centre for Research on Energy and Clean Air. India has purchased 80% of Russia's seaborne Urals crude exports this year, with two private refineries increasingly buying more of this variety. The US and India are engaged in negotiations for a trade agreement and are racing to meet a July 9 deadline set by Trump, in order to avoid reciprocal tariffs.

How Ukraine can cope with the US pause on crucial battlefield weapons
The U.S. pause in weapons shipments to Ukraine coincides with intensified Russian attacks, creating vulnerabilities in Ukrainian cities due to the shortage of Patriot air defense missiles. While Ukraine is scaling up its domestic defense production, particularly in drones and artillery shells, European countries are increasing their military aid to compensate for the U.S. pause. Tired of too many ads? Remove Ads Tired of too many ads? Remove Ads Tired of too many ads? Remove Ads The decision by the United States to pause some weapons shipments to Ukraine has come at a tough time for Kyiv: Russia's bigger army is making a concerted push on parts of the roughly 1,000-kilometer (620-mile) front line and is intensifying long-range drone and missile attacks that increasingly hammer civilians in Ukrainian has been Ukraine's biggest military backer since Russia launched a full-scale invasion of its neighbor on Feb. 24, 2022.

They include Patriot air defense missiles , which are needed to fend off Russia's frequent ballistic missile attacks, but which cost $4 million each. That vital system is included in the pause, and many cities in Ukraine, including Kyiv, could become increasingly vulnerable.A senior Ukrainian official said Thursday that Patriot systems are "critically necessary" for Ukraine, but U.S.-made HIMARS precision-guided missiles, also paused, are in less urgent need as other countries produce similar assets."Other countries that have these (Patriot) systems can only transfer them with U.S. approval. The real question now is how far the United States is willing to go in its reluctance to support Ukraine," he told The Associated Press on condition of anonymity because of sensitivity of the official said that Patriot missiles exist in sufficient numbers globally, and he said that accessing them requires political resolve."There are enough missiles out there," he said, without providing also stated that Ukraine has already scaled up its domestic production of 155 mm artillery shells, which were once critically short, and is now capable of producing more than is currently contracted. "Supplies from abroad have also become more available than before," he plan Amid at times fraught relations with U.S. President Donald Trump, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy has been enlisting greater European help for his country's arms manufacturing countries don't have the production levels, military stockpiles or the technology to pick up all the slack left by the U.S. pause, but Zelenskyy is recruiting their help for ambitious joint investment legislation to help Ukrainian defense manufacturers scale up and modernize production, including building new facilities at home and abroad, will be put to a vote in the Ukrainian parliament later this month, Defense Minister Rustem Umerov announced this said last month that major investments will go to the production of drones and artillery shells."The volume of support this year is the largest since the start of the full-scale war," he said about commitments from foreign Trump, there have been no new announcements of U.S. military or weapons aid to Ukraine.

They have always said that during the war, they have never had as much ammunition to as their disposal as Russian army faces a different problem: It's desperately short-handed. It's turning to drones to compensate for its manpower shortage, and analysts say the front isn't about to about the timing of the U.S. pause, the Ukrainian official emphasized the need for stable, reliable supply lines."This is war - and in war, steady deliveries are always crucial," he said.
