SMEs in Pune and Pimpri-Chinchwad seek govt intervention to cushion blow of Trump's tariffs on India

Small-scale industries in Pune and Pimpri-Chinchwad have urged the Central and Maharashtra governments to take immediate steps to mitigate the negative effects of the 25 per cent tariffs on imports from India proposed by United States President Donald Trump. Industrialist Arun Firodia has called for a drastic reduction in electricity charges as well as interest rates to ensure the sustainability of engineering exports. Firodia, who is the chairman of Kinetic Group, said drastic steps like a reduction in electricity rates have to be taken to keep up the competitiveness of Indian engineering goods in the US and world market. 'Our industries should get electricity at Rs 2 per unit,' he said. At present, industrial units purchase electricity at Rs 8.32 per unit in the state, which is one of the highest in the country. 'The government must take steps to increase the purchase power of the consumer by reducing domestic taxation,' he said. Last week, Trump announced a 25 per cent tariff on Indian imports from August 7, alongside an additional but unspecified 'penalty' for India's defence and energy imports from Russia. Small- and medium-scale industries in Pune and Pimpri Chinchwad are mostly vendors and sub-vendors of the automotive industry in the district. In Pimpri-Chinchwad alone, more than 5,000 small and medium-scale industries employ over 3-4 lakh people in various engineering operations. SMEs are also involved in exports directly or indirectly. Precious stones, engineering goods, pharmaceutical, textiles are some of the major exports from the country to the USA. Abhay Bhor, president of the Federation of Small Scale Industries Association in Pimpri-Chinchwad, urged both the state and Central government to take urgent steps to mitigate the effects of the tariff. 'Engineering goods, pharmaceuticals, electronics and industrial packaging units are based on the US export markets for their survival. The tariff, Bhor said, will result in loss of jobs as well as closure of the industries. 'Most industries are going through a rough patch with this tariff; it can really be a body blow to the industries,' he said. Bhor requested Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis to immediately interfere to ensure this crisis is resolved. 'The sector requires handholding and the chief minister must take urgent steps to help the sector,' he said.

Nippon India mutual fund opens Leh branch to boost border inclusion

In a bid to deepen financial inclusion, Nippon Life India Asset Management Ltd has opened a branch in Leh and is looking to expand its presence in border areas, its CEO Sundeep Sikka said. With this, Nippon Life India Asset Management (NAM India) -- promoted by Japan's Nippon Life Insurance Company -- becomes the only asset management company in the country to establish a physical presence in such a high-altitude region. This marks NAM India's 167th branch and its presence in 266 pin codes across the country. Explaining the reason for opening the branch, Sikka said Ladakh, a Union Territory known for its breathtaking landscapes, has seen a surge in tourism and economic activity in recent years. However, the region's financial landscape remains relatively underdeveloped, with limited access to a diverse range of investment products. The average assets under management (AAUM) in Jammu & Kashmir and Ladakh stood at Rs 10,844 crore as of June 2025, accounting for less than 0.14 per cent of India's total mutual fund assets. In contrast, India's overall mutual fund AAUM reached a staggering Rs 74.80 lakh crore during the same period. "With a presence in Leh, Ladakh, Nippon India Mutual Fund aims to bridge the financial literacy gap, develop a healthy mutual fund ecosystem and offer local residents the opportunity to participate in the Indian capital markets," Sikka said. The company plans to open more branches in India's border regions that often face limited access to formal financial services, the chief executive said. However, he did not specify a timeline for the rollout of additional branches. At present, Nippon India Mutual Fund is present in all districts and 97 per cent of PIN codes across India. When asked about the challenges of operating in such regions, Sikka pointed out that while many residents have a decent income, there is a clear lack of awareness about formal investment avenues. "People here are earning well, but often end up putting their money into unregulated or informal products due to limited financial literacy," he said. Highlighting the need for investor education as a top priority, he said the company's first objective is to build trust and understanding around mutual funds. "We are also exploring the launch of simple, easy-to-understand products tailored to the needs of first-time investors in these areas," he noted. About the company's future expansion strategy, Sikka said Nippon India Mutual Fund is focused on strengthening its digital infrastructure, noting that nearly 70 per cent of new investors are now coming through online channels. At the same time, the company remains committed to expanding its physical presence, recognising that on-ground branches play a key role in building trust. Additionally, he revealed plans to launch a Specialised Investment Fund (SIF) aimed at offering more targeted investment solutions.

Mumbai to Ahmedabad in just 127 minutes: India's first bullet train service to begin soon, says Ashwini Vaishnaw

Mumbai-Ahmedabad Bullet Train Launch: India's first bullet train service on Mumbai-Ahmedabad route will commence soon. Speaking at an event in Gujarat's Bhavnagar, Railway Minister Ashwini Vaishnaw announced that the Mumbai-Ahmedabad bullet train service will begin very soon. Once operational, it will reduce travel time between the two cities to just 2 hours and 7 minutes (127 minutes), he said. 'The first bullet train from Mumbai to Ahmedabad will start very soon, and the work on the project is going on at a fast pace. When it starts running, the journey from Mumbai to Ahmedabad will take only two hours and seven minutes,' Vaishnaw said. बुलेट ट्रेन, मुंबई से अहमदाबाद वाली पहली ट्रेन, वह भी बहुत जल्दी चालू होने वाली है। तेजी से काम चल रहा है और जब यह ट्रेन चालू हो जाएगी। मुंबई से अहमदाबाद मात्र 2 घंटे 7 मिनट की जर्नी रहेगीः माननीय रेल मंत्री श्री @AshwiniVaishnaw जी — Ministry of Railways (@RailMinIndia) August 3, 2025 The Railway Minister was at Bhavnagar terminus from where he virtually flagged off three trains: the Bhavnagar Terminus–Ayodhya Cantt Express, the Rewa–Pune Express, and a new train connecting Jabalpur to Raipur. The 508-km long Mumbai-Ahmedabad High Speed Rail (MAHSR) project will have 12 stations namely – Mumbai, Thane, Virar, Boisar, Vapi, Billimora, Surat, Bharuch, Vadodara, Anand, Ahmedabad and Sabarmati. The total estimated cost of MAHSR project is Rs 1,08,000 crore (approximately). Of these, Japan International Cooperation Agency (JICA) is funding 81% of the project cost i.e. Rs. 88,000 crores. Last year, Chennai-based Integral Coach Factory (ICF) awarded a contract to design, manufacture, and commission of two high-speed trains to BEML Limited. Both the trainsets will be developed on Japanese Shinkansen technology. According to BEML, the price of each high-speed car is Rs 27.86 crore and the total contract value is Rs 866.87 crore. Recently, in a written reply to Lok Sabha, Railway Minister Ashwini Vaishnaw stated that the Gujarat portion of the corridor between Vapi and Sabarmati is planned to be completed by December, 2027. 'The entire project (Maharashtra to Sabarmati section) is expected to be completed by Dec, 2029. However, Bullet train project is a very complex and technology intensive Project,' he noted.
