Trident shares surge 6% on US tariff move and regulatory clarity
ADVERTISEMENT The surge came after the US administration under President Donald Trump announced a 35% tariff on textile imports from Bangladesh—a move that could alter global supply chains and create new export opportunities for Indian manufacturers like Trident.
India currently faces a 10% average tariff on textile exports to the US. However, certain product segments are subjected to higher duties—up to 26%, depending on classification. With Bangladesh now facing a significantly steeper tariff, Indian exporters could gain a pricing edge, especially if trade negotiations evolve in India's favour.
In addition to global tailwinds, Trident also posted a regulatory compliance update on July 7, submitting a certificate under Regulation 74(5) of the SEBI (Depositories and Participants) Regulations, 2018. The filing, made to both BSE and NSE, was backed by a certificate from KFin Technologies Ltd, confirming that all dematerialisation and rematerialisation data for the quarter ended June 30, 2025, has been duly shared with the exchanges.The disclosure highlights Trident's commitment to corporate governance and regulatory transparency. The company has also advised stakeholders to verify signatory authorizations via its official website or corporate communication channels.

Moving Averages: Trident is currently trading above all 8 key simple moving averages (SMAs) — from the short-term 5-day SMA to the long-term 200-day SMA. This alignment across short-, medium-, and long-term moving averages is typically considered a strong bullish signal, indicating a well-supported uptrend.

Trump imposes 30% tariff on imports from Mexico, EU starting Aug 1
US President Donald Trump has announced a sweeping 30 per cent tariff on all imports from Mexico and the European Union, set to take effect on August 1, 2025. The move follows unsuccessful negotiations with both trading partners over broader trade reforms. In separate letters posted on Truth Social, President Trump cited persistent trade deficits and unfair practices as justification for the tariffs. Trump has announced a 30 per cent tariff on all imports from Mexico and the EU, effective August 1, citing trade imbalances and unfair practices. The tariffs exclude goods manufactured within the US. Trump warned against retaliation and pledged streamlined investment approvals to encourage domestic production. The move adds to existing sectoral duties and targets transhipped goods. Addressing Mexico's President Claudia Sheinbaum, Trump stated the tariffs would apply to all Mexican goods entering the US, excluding items manufactured domestically in the US. He also warned that any retaliatory tariff from Mexico would result in a proportional increase above the 30 per cent base rate. In a parallel letter to European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen, Trump criticised the EU's tariff and non-tariff barriers, calling the trade relationship 'far from reciprocal'. He justified the 30 per cent rate as being 'far less than what is needed' to correct the trade imbalance with the EU. President Trump indicated that the new tariffs would not apply to goods produced within the US by Mexican and EU firms. He emphasised that his administration would streamline the approval process for such investments, promising quick, professional, and routine clearances—potentially within just a few weeks—to encourage domestic manufacturing. The new tariffs are in addition to existing sector-specific duties and will also apply to goods transhipped through third countries to avoid the higher levy. Fibre2Fashion News Desk (KD)

‘Sooner or later…': Paytm founder sees impact of AI on jobs as ‘inevitable'; says artificial intelligence will also create new roles
The impact of artificial intelligence (AI) on jobs is "inevitable", according to founder Vijay Shekhar Sharma, who said AI will become part of routine business processes sooner rather than later. Tired of too many ads? go ad free now 'Sooner or later we will have to start using AI as an employee or even as a CFO,' Sharma said at an AI-focused event in New Delhi. He said AI will eventually perform most tasks currently done by humans, and stressed the need to build core products instead. Sharma also outlined a broader vision for the company — to move beyond its fintech roots and become an AI-first firm, according to an ET report. Although AI will automate several human functions, Sharma said it will also create fresh roles in the workforce. The remarks come at a time when Paytm's parent, One97 Communications, is undergoing job cuts. ET reported last month that the company had laid off an unspecified number of employees. The overall sales team headcount dropped by about 3,500 in the March 2024 quarter, taking the total to 36,521. This decline was largely linked to the Reserve Bank of India's restrictions on Paytm Payments Bank operations. In the March quarter, Paytm posted a consolidated net loss of Rs 540 crore, compared with Rs 550 crore in the year-ago period. In June, Paytm stood third in the UPI rankings with 1.27 billion transactions worth Rs 1.34 lakh crore — accounting for 6.9% of total volume and 5.6% of value. PhonePe remained in the lead with 8.55 billion transactions valued at Rs 11.99 lakh crore. As part of its AI initiatives, Sharma announced a new passbook feature that would use Paytm's data to generate a rap song summarising monthly expenses. Though no launch date has been shared, Sharma said it would be made available to users soon. Paytm had earlier partnered with US-based AI startup Perplexity to introduce AI-powered search capabilities in its app.

ED attaches assets worth over Rs 762 crore in PACL case
The money-laundering probe of 2015 stems from a Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) FIR against Pearl Agrotech Corporation Limited (PACL), PGF Limited, its main promoter, late Nirmal Singh Bhangoo, and others for operating 'fraudulent' investment schemes to deceive investors. A provisional order has been issued under the Prevention of Money Laundering Act (PMLA) to attach the 68 immovable properties located across Punjab, Haryana, Delhi, Maharashtra, and in Australia, the central probe agency said in a statement. New Delhi, Jul 12 (PTI) Assets worth more than Rs 762 crore of PACL (the Pearls Group) and its promoters have been attached under the anti-money laundering law in a case linked to an alleged Rs 48,000 crore Ponzi scheme, in which numerous investors were duped, the Enforcement Directorate (ED) said on Saturday. Through these schemes, PACL and its directors 'defrauded' the investors of about Rs 48,000 crore, the ED said. 'The funds fraudulently collected from lakhs of gullible investors were systematically diverted and layered through multiple transactions to conceal their illicit origin,' the agency added. The attached assets are in the name of Bhangoo, his family members and entities related to PACL, it said. The total value of these properties is Rs 762.47 crore, the ED said. Bhangoo died in August last year. PTI NES RC This report is auto-generated from PTI news service. ThePrint holds no responsibility for its content.
