Zen Technologies shares jump 3% as it secures patent for laser-based combat training filter
Zen Technologies' stock rose over 3% in morning trade after the company announced the grant of its 54th Indian patent—an innovation that could significantly shape the future of military training systems. The newly granted patent, titled 'Single ILU Long Pass Filter,' is a breakthrough in the use of laser-based simulation technology.
This patent also marks Zen's 82nd global patent, reinforcing its growing leadership in defence R&D and cutting-edge training solutions. According to the company, the new filter technology allows the seamless integration of both visible and infrared laser beams into a single, stable output. This boosts the realism, accuracy, and efficiency of combat simulators used in soldier training.
Traditional laser systems often require multiple beam paths and frequent calibration. Zen's compact and durable design eliminates these limitations—reducing maintenance while offering reliable performance in harsh field conditions.
Zen Technologies stock opened at ₹1,960.00 and, at the time of writing, touched an intraday high of ₹1,989.90, while the low stood at ₹1,940.00. The current levels remain well below its 52-week high of ₹2,627.00 but significantly above the 52-week low of ₹945.35.

Italy court acquits consultant in India helicopter case
MILAN (Reuters) -An Italian appeals court has fully acquitted an Italian-American consultant who had previously settled a charge of international corruption in a case related to a 2010 helicopter contract between defence company Leonardo and the Indian government. According to the ruling reviewed by Reuters, the appeals court in the northern city of Brescia upheld a review request filed by Guido Ralph Haschke, revoking the plea bargain and acquitting him "because there was no case to answer". Haschke, 73, a U.S. and Italian citizen living in Switzerland and an international consultant with a background as a World Bank executive, agreed to a plea bargain of one year and 10 months during the first trial in 2014 after being accused of being a middleman in the alleged corruption. The case was a big political issue in Italy and India when it opened in 2012 and tarnished the company's reputation at a time when India had established itself as one the world's biggest arms buyers. Sentences of under two years for people with a previous clean record are conditional in Italy and do not result in time behind bars. Italy's Supreme Court in 2019 acquitted the defendants in the case, two former executives of the Italian state-controlled defence group previously known as Finmeccanica. That prompted Luca Lauri, Haschke's lawyer to initiate the appeal proceedings that led to a ruling late on Monday, in which, according to a statement released by the law firm, the consultant was accorded "the broadest possible acquittal". Haschke had told Reuters in 2014 that his plea bargain was not an admission of responsibility but a "technical decision to avoid years of trials". The case revolved around corruption allegations related to a contract worth 560 million euros ($660 million) to supply a dozen helicopters to the Indian government. The deal between the defence group and India was subject to international arbitration which ended in 2019, effectively cancelling the contract. ($1 = 0.8467 euros)

CCI orders probe against Asian Paints for alleged abuse of dominance following complaint by Grasim's Birla Opus Paints
By Aditya Bhagchandani Published on July 1, 2025, 18:51 IST The Competition Commission of India (CCI) has directed its director general (DG) to initiate an investigation against Asian Paints for alleged abuse of market dominance. The probe follows a complaint filed by Grasim Industries, which recently entered the paint market under the Birla Opus Paints brand. According to CCI's order dated July 1, Birla Opus Paints has accused Asian Paints of placing restrictive clauses in distributor agreements to discourage them from selling Birla Paints products. The complaint also alleges that Asian Paints rewarded exclusive dealers with special discounts and foreign trips, while penalizing those who sold both brands by reducing credit limits, increasing sales targets, and cutting down consumer leads. The commission noted that Asian Paints allegedly threatened raw material suppliers, transporters, and warehousing agents to limit business with Birla Paints. A specific incident was cited from October 2023, when Asian Paints, during a vendor meet at ITC Maratha Mumbai, reportedly warned over 150 top vendors that supplying to Birla Paints would result in a reduced business share with Asian Paints and that vendors should charge higher rates to Birla Paints. CCI observed that such conduct prima facie amounts to input foreclosure and denial of market access, which violates Section 4(2)(c) of the Competition Act. According to CMIE data, Asian Paints holds the largest market share in the Indian paints sector at 39.05% as of FY23, followed by Berger Paints with 12.13%, while Kansai Nerolac and Akzo Nobel India each hold under 10%. The commission has now ordered a detailed investigation into the matter.
