Cooper Corp forms JV with Japan's Sinfonia Tech to manufacture LPG gensets

Engine maker Cooper Corporation on Thursday announced the official launch of its strategic joint venture with Japanese firm Sinfonia Technology to manufacture 10-kVA LPG generator sets at its Satara facility in Maharashtra.
The latest emission norms (CPCB IV+)-compliant co-branded product will be jointly marketed across India and exported globally, Cooper Corporation said.
The two companies had announced the partnership in June.
The Cooper Sinfonia genset, CSG-0010L-IN, will be marketed in India under the brand name 'Daimon', named after the town where Sinfonia Technology is headquartered, while in the Japanese market it will be sold under the brand 'Satara', which also houses the over 100-year old Cooper Corporation's headquarters, the company said.
Both partners will jointly market and distribute Daimon Genset across India and international markets, with a strategic emphasis on Asia, Africa and the Middle East, it added.
"This partnership with Sinfonia Technology marks a purposeful step towards reshaping the energy landscape with cleaner, smarter solutions. The Daimon Genset reflects our belief that progress is driven by collaboration where Japanese precision and Indian engineering come together with intent," Cooper Corporation Chairman and Managing Director Farrokh N Cooper said.
With CPCB IV+compliant and high-efficiency LPG gensets, the JV aims to help industries transition to sustainable and cost-effective power solutions without compromising on reliability or performance, he added.
CPCB IV+ norms are India's most stringent emission standards aimed at combating air pollution and promoting sustainable energy.
"Our collaboration with Cooper Corporation underscores our shared vision of delivering sustainable, high-efficiency power solutions worldwide. The Daimon Genset combines Japanese precision engineering with India's manufacturing prowess, creating a product that meets the highest international standards.
"Through this collaboration, we are proud to push the boundaries of clean energy accessibility and drive meaningful progress toward a greener future," Sinfonia Technology Co. General Manager and spokesperson A Makoto Saito said.

One Big, Beautiful Bill Act: How New US Law Impacts NRIs Sending Money To India

One of the key proposals in the act that may directly impact the Indian diaspora residing in the US is the imposition of remittance tax at the rate of 3.5 per cent. One Big, Beautiful Bill Act: Despite staunch protests and opposition, the controversial piece of legislation 'One Big, Beautiful Bill Act', strongly backed by US President Donald Trump, has now become a law, bringing sweeping reforms including major tax changes, welfare cuts, defence spending hikes, and cultural policy. The bill had been passed by both the US Senate and the House of Representatives. Later, it was signed into law by President Trump at a ceremony held on July 4, during Independence Day celebrations at the White House. One of the key proposals in the act that may directly impact the Indian diaspora residing in the US is the imposition of remittance tax. Thereupon, NRIs living in the US on H1B, L1, F1 visas, and even Green Card holders will have to pay an Excise tax on remittances at the rate of 3.5 per cent (earlier proposed to 5 per cent), making it costlier to send money. 'The proposed tax will significantly affect Indian immigrants who send money to support families in India," said Bikramjit Bedi, Partner – Taxation, ASA & ASSOCIATES LLP. He noted that the added burden may deter many from continuing regular remittances, potentially impacting India's foreign exchange inflows. These individuals frequently remit funds to support their families back home. Experts warn this could lead to a decline in the overall volume of remittances. In FY24, India received nearly $33 billion in remittances from the US, according to RBI data—almost 28% of the total $118.7 billion in remittances received. A drop in this figure could impact household incomes and consumption levels in India. Complex Compliance And Legal Ambiguity Another layer of concern is the lack of clarity on whether taxpayers can claim credits for the remittance tax. 'India has a similar TCS provision, but offers relaxations based on purpose. The US tax, however, offers no such relief," Bedi pointed out. The tax may also test the limits of the India-US Double Taxation Avoidance Agreement (DTAA). While some argue the proposed levy violates the DTAA's non-discrimination clause, others believe the clause only covers income tax—not excise or transactional levies. Deepashree Shetty, Partner – Global Employer Services, BDO India, said the tax could impose not just financial pressure but also added paperwork. 'Remitters may face enhanced scrutiny, as banks would need to report data like nationality, remittance amounts, and tax paid," she explained. She added that given their temporary stay, individuals on such visas rely heavily on remittances. 'The tax would be an additional charge, reducing the net amount that reaches families back home," she said. About the Author First Published: July 06, 2025, 09:28 IST

photoDetails english 2927330 Updated:Jul 06, 2025, 09:34 AM IST Net Worth Overview (2025) 1 / 10 As of 2025, Shubman Gill's estimated net worth stands between Rs 32 to Rs 34 crore (approximately 4-6 million dollars). This includes his IPL earnings, central BCCI contract, match fees, and several lucrative brand endorsements. IPL Journey and Salary 2 / 10 Gill's journey in the Indian Premier League began with the Kolkata Knight Riders in 2018 when he was bought for Rs 1.8 crore. He remained with KKR until 2021 before joining Gujarat Titans in the IPL 2022 mega auction for Rs 8 crore. GT retained him for Rs 16.5 crore in IPL 2025, making him one of the highest-paid players in the league. Earnings from BCCI Contracts 3 / 10 Apart from IPL riches, Shubman Gill is also on a Grade A central contract with the BCCI. This entitles him to an annual salary of ₹5 crore. In addition to this base amount, he receives match fees for every Test, ODI, and T20I he plays, Rs 15 lakh per Test, Rs 6 lakh per ODI, and Rs 3 lakh per T20I. Brand Endorsements and Collaborations 4 / 10 Gill is one of the most in-demand faces for endorsements among Gen Z cricketers. He currently endorses top-tier brands including TATA Capital, Gillette, CEAT Tyres, Beats by Dr. Dre, BharatPe, My11Circle, and MRF. Lifestyle, Cars, and Assets 5 / 10 Known for his humble roots, Shubman Gill owns a lavish residence in his hometown of Ferozpur, Punjab. His collection includes a stylish Range Rover SUV and a rugged Mahindra Thar. Total Earnings Breakdown 6 / 10 To break down his known earnings: Shubman has made approximately Rs 26.5 crore from the IPL alone so far (Rs 1.8 crore with KKR and Rs 24.7 crore with Gujarat Titans). His BCCI earnings, both annual and match-related, are estimated at around Rs 6 crore in a year where he plays consistently. Add to that his endorsements, which could bring in Rs 2–3 crore annually, and Gill's net worth comfortably crosses the Rs 32–34 crore mark. Recent Performance vs England (Edgbaston 2025) 7 / 10 In July 2025, Shubman Gill delivered a career-defining performance in the second Test against England at Edgbaston. Scoring 269 runs in the first innings and 161 in the second, Gill registered a combined total of 430 runs in a single Test match, becoming the second-highest run-scorer ever in a Test, behind only Graham Gooch's 456. Record-Breaking Test Feats 8 / 10 Gill's 430-run effort made him the first Indian cricketer in history to score more than 400 runs in a Test match, breaking Sunil Gavaskar's record of 344 runs. He also became the first batter ever to score 250+ and 150+ in the same match. Captain's Class and Match Impact 9 / 10 Shubman's innings not only set personal records but also had a match-winning impact. As captain, he led India to a massive second-innings declaration of 427/6, setting England a target of 608 runs. His stroke play, patience, and temperament drew praise from all quarters. The Road Ahead: Legacy in the Making 10 / 10 At just 25 years old, Gill is already living up to, and in some cases, surpassing expectations set upon him when he first emerged from India's U-19 setup. His on-field excellence is translating into off-field wealth and stature. With his market value growing and performances like the one in Edgbaston boosting his global brand appeal, Shubman Gill's future looks not only bright but legendary.
