Amazon Investment in India: American e-commerce company Amazon on Thursday revealed its plan to invest over Rs 2,500 crore in India this year. The company is planning to expand its network in India so that its services can reach more and more people. Amazon's Plan In India
According to Amazon, with the investment of Rs 2500 crore, the company is focussing on expanding its network and upgrading its services to deliver faster and reliable services. Technology and innovation is more advanced than before and the interest of the employees can also be improved.
This investment will enhance the company's processing capabilities, upgrade its operational network, and improve its delivery infrastructure, ultimately providing customers with superior service. India's E-Commerce Market Growing Rapidly
It is worth mentioning that Amazon announced the investment at a time when India's e-commerce market is growing rapidly. The market valuation in 2024 was USD125 billion, and it is estimated to reach USD550 billion by 2030. The market is also supported by the increasing number of internet users in India.
E-commerce growth in the country is being fuelled by a younger generation increasingly embracing online shopping. This trend is expanding e-commerce beyond urban centers, into smaller towns and rural areas.
Companies like Amazon, Flipkart and JioMart dominate India's e-commerce sector. India's e-business landscape has changed completely because of the investment of billions of dollars in the rapidly growing e-commerce market in recent years.
However, this new investment by Amazon can prove to be a challenge for existing e-commerce players such as Flipkart and Meesho.

Japan's Ishiba says he'll stay in office to tackle inflation and US tariffs despite election loss
Trump has added to the pressure, complaining about a lack of progress in trade negotiations and the lack of sales of U.S. autos and American-grown rice to Japan despite a shortfall in domestic stocks of the grain. A 25% tariff due to take effect Aug. 1 has been another blow for Ishiba. At a news conference Monday, Ishiba said his LDP and the Komeito have agreed to stick with their coalition while seeking further cooperation from opposition parties. Ishiba resisted calls for his resignation and did not say how much longer he planned to stay on. He is sticking around for the country and the people, not for self-interest, 'to put the pressing issues on a path to a solution," he said. Voters frustrated with price increases exceeding the pace of wage hikes, especially younger people who have long felt ignored by the ruling government's focus on senior voters, rapidly turned to emerging conservative and right-wing populist parties. Established liberal to centrist parties, including the main opposition Constitutional Democratic Party of Japan, gained little ground. The Democratic Party for the People quadrupled its seats by campaigning for higher take-home pay. The right-wing Sanseito, running on a 'Japanese First' platform that puts tougher regulations on foreigners and brakes on gender and sexual diversity, surged to number three in the opposition. The LDP has lost support due to the people's discontent over the party's measures for rising prices, foreign residents and other reasons and that he will 'quickly analyze the results and learn the lesson," Ishiba said. None of the opposition parties said they want to form a full-fledged alliance with the governing coalition but are open to cooperating on policy. CDPJ leader Yoshihiko Noda told broadcaster NHK that his priority is to form an alliance among the opposition. 'Public opinion clearly said 'no' to the Ishiba government,' Noda said. Sanseito leader Sohei Kamiya told NHK late Sunday he is open to cooperating with the ruling bloc on conservative policies. While he said his party did better than expected, he would wait to gain more seats in the other house in the next election and attempt to form a multi-party coalition like in Europe. The Sanseito party's stance encouraged the spread of xenophobic rhetoric in the campaign and on social media, while also attracting people who are strugging with economic woes and looking for targets to vent their discontent and anxiety, experts say. The language triggered protests from rights activists and alarmed foreign residents.

Havells India's Q1 net profit falls 33 pc sequentially, revenue down 17 pc
Mumbai: Havells India on Monday reported a net profit of Rs 347.53 crore in the first quarter (Q1) of FY26, down 32.78 per cent on quarter-on-quarter (QoQ) basis from Rs 517 crore in Q4 FY25. Revenue from operations also dropped by 16.63 per cent, falling to Rs 5,455.35 crore from Rs 6,543.56 crore in the previous quarter, according to its stock exchange filing. Total income for the quarter also followed suit and stood at Rs 5,524.53 crore -- marking a 16.45 per cent decline from Rs 6,612.28 crore in Q4 FY25. Year-on-year (YoY), the company also saw a drop in its profit. Consolidated profit after tax (PAT) fell 14.75 per cent from Rs 407.51 crore in the April-June quarter of the previous fiscal. Revenue from operations also declined 6 per cent YoY from Rs 5,806.21 crore in Q1 FY25. The company's earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortisation (EBITDA) fell to Rs 570 crore, slightly lower than Rs 576 crore in the same quarter previous year. The EBITDA margin dropped to 5.6 per cent, compared to 9.9 per cent a year ago, as per its exchange filing. Havells attributed the weak performance to an unusually mild summer this year, which hurt demand for cooling products like fans and air coolers. It noted that while industrial and infrastructure demand remained strong, consumer sentiment was weak. "Tepid summer this year, in contrast to the strong season last year, led to significant decline in cooling products," the company said in its exchange filing. Among its segments, wires and cables performed strongly, with revenue rising 27.1 per cent to Rs 1,933 crore compared to Rs 1,521 crore a year ago. However, the lighting and fixtures business slipped 3.1 per cent to Rs 374 crore. The company also highlighted that the performance of its Lloyd brand was impacted due to unseasonal rains and a shorter summer, leading to higher inventory levels and flattish growth in the first half of the calendar year. The results were announced after market hours. Ahead of the announcement, Havells' stock closed 0.95 per cent higher at Rs 1,533 on the National Stock Exchange (NSE).
