Rajiv Anand to help realise full potential of IndusInd Bank, says promoter Ashok Hinduja
Synopsis IndusInd Bank promoter Ashok Hinduja has extended full support to newly appointed CEO Rajiv Anand, who will assume charge on August 25. Anand's appointment follows leadership exits and financial setbacks, including a ₹2,329 crore loss in Q4. Hinduja praised the RBI for its swift approval. The bank expects Anand to unveil a long-term strategy as it moves past past issues. Agencies IndusInd Bank promoter Ashok Hinduja on Tuesday said the lender's newly appointed chief executive and managing director, Rajiv Anand, will help realise the full potential of the bank. The promoter grouping will offer "full support" to Anand, Hinduja said. "As the promoter of IndusInd Bank, we offer full support and wish him all success," he said in a statement that comes after the announcement of Anand as the candidate to lead the troubled lender. Several senior executives in IndusInd Bank, including the CEO Sumant Kathpalia, resigned over the last few months, necessitating the new appointment. The bank, which is under an interim management, has owned up to fraud, under-reporting of non-performing assets and other drawbacks, which led it to post a Rs 2,329 crore loss for the March quarter. After it swung back to black in the June quarter, the interim management has assured that there are no problems from the past which are yet to be recognized, and added that the new CEO will come out with a detailed strategy on the medium to long term strategies once he or she joins. "I compliment the regulator for the expeditious approval of the appointment of Rajiv Anand as the MD and CEO at Indusind Bank," Hinduja said. The IndusInd board, basis approval of the Reserve Bank of India (RBI), at its meeting held on August 4 approved the appointment of Rajiv Anand as 'Additional Director' in the category of Managing Director and CEO and Key Managerial Personnel of the bank for three years, IndusInd Bank said in a late evening regulatory filing on Monday. Anand's appointment is for three years, and will be taking over the reins at the troubled lender on August 25. It can be noted that a few years ago, the bank's promoter had received the RBI nod to raise its stake in the bank to 26 per cent from the present level of around 15 per cent. The bank scrip closed 1.90 per cent up at Rs 819.20 a shares on the BSE on Tuesday, as against a 0.38 per cent correction on the benchmark. PTI

Tesla To Open Delhi Showroom On August 11; Check Exact Location
Tesla, the US-based electric vehicle manufacturer, is set to open its second showroom in Delhi on August 11. It follows the inaugural showroom of the brand in India opened in Mumbai's BKC on July 15. The latest dealership of the brand will be located at Worldmark, Aerocity, close to the New Delhi International Airport. Once it begins operations, the carmaker will be able to serve consumers in Delhi and the national capital region. The Tesla Model Y was recently launched in the Indian market. On the same day, the official Indian website for the automaker went live. Initially, customers could only register their vehicles in Mumbai, New Delhi, and Gurugram. However, this has been updated, allowing users to register their cars in any state or union territory across the nation. In simpler terms, prospective buyers can now book and register their Tesla vehicles in their states. Moreover, the website mentions that the on-road prices may differ due to various factors. It also highlights that customers in Mumbai, Pune, Delhi, and Gurugram will have priority for deliveries. Once the process is complete, the vehicle will be delivered directly to the consumer's location via a flat-bed truck. Although self-driving features can be obtained in India for Rs 6 lakh, this capability will be rolled out at a later time. The manufacturer has released both RWD (rear-wheel drive) and long-range RWD versions of the car in India. The entry price for the RWD model is Rs 59.89 lakh, while the long-range version is available for Rs 67.89 lakh. Consequently, the on-road cost for the RWD variant totals Rs 61.07 lakh, whereas the on-road price for the long-range version is Rs 69.15 lakh. In India, the rear-wheel drive version of the Tesla Model Y can be opted for with either a 60 kWh or a larger 75 kWh battery pack. The RWD variant features a single electric motor that produces around 295 hp. Furthermore, the 60 kWh battery is claimed to provide a WLTP range of 500 km when fully charged, while the long-range model is said to achieve a range of 622 km.
