In a stock exchange filing on Friday (June 20), BEL said the new orders include fire control systems, missile sighting systems, communication equipment, jammers, critical spares, and associated services.
This follows BEL's strategic partnership with Tata Electronics, announced on June 6. The two firms signed a memorandum of understanding (MoU) to jointly pursue opportunities in semiconductors and advanced electronics, including chip design, OSAT (Outsourced Semiconductor Assembly and Test), and fabrication. The move aligns with India's push for self-reliance in high-tech manufacturing.
Earlier, on June 4, BEL had announced Rs 537 crore worth of new contracts for advanced communication systems, shipborne equipment, jammers, simulators, and other defence electronics.

Delhi HC stays order directing Amazon to pay Rs 340 cr for infringing trademark
The Delhi High Court on Tuesday stayed an order directing Amazon Technologies Inc to pay around Rs 340 crore as damages and costs for trademark infringement of the luxury lifestyle brand, Beverly Hills Polo Club. The decision of a bench comprising Justice C Hari Shankar and Justice Ajay Digpaul came on the plea against a single judge's order directing Amazon Technologies to pay Lifestyle Equities damages of 39 million dollars after finding that Amazon infringed upon its 'Beverly Hills Polo Club' trademark. Amazon's main appeal against the order has been posted on October 9. 'The considerations outlined herein above make out, in our considered opinion, an exceptional case, in which it would be a complete travesty of justice to require the appellant Amazon Tech to deposit, or secure, any part of the amount decreed by the impugned judgment, in order to maintain its appeal,' the bench said on Tuesday. The court held there was no specific finding by the single judge and that it was largely generalised in nature, concentrating on the phenomenon of e-infringement and reflect a view that, if Amazon Tech desired, it could infringe, rather than that it did infringe. It did not find any prima facie sustainable allegation of involvement by Amazon in any infringement of Lifestyle's registered trademark. 'This, therefore, is not merely a case in which damages have been awarded against Amazon Tech without any finding, by the learned Single Judge, of involvement, in the alleged infringing activities, but is, in fact, a case where no such pleadings exist,' the court said. In 2020, Lifestyle Equities filed a trademark infringement suit against Amazon Technologies and others alleging that they infringed upon its registered 'BEVERLY HILLS POLO CLUB' logo/device marks by using a deceptively similar mark on apparel and other products sold on their platforms. It was claimed that Amazon was manufacturing and selling products under the brand 'Symbol' with the infringing mark, and that Cloudtail India, operating on the marketplace, was also involved in the sale of these infringing products.

What does success mean in 2025? A Shark Tank promo opens up big questions for young professionals
The promo for Shark Tank India Season 5 is not a typical show teaser. Clocking in at just under a minute and a half, it plays more like a satirical short film, one that lays bare the contradictions of modern Indian work culture, where the myth of 'overtime equals success' continues to thrive. Watch the promo below before reading further. The video opens with a tongue-in-cheek proposition: Why start your own business when you can work overtime for someone else's? It's a biting critique aimed directly at India's deeply internalised hustle culture, where overworking is often mistaken for ambition and where professional loyalty is praised more than independent thought. 'Why aren't we as rich as the Arabs?', a group of CEOs, styled as caricatures of power and privilege, question. The answer, they believe, lies in squeezing more work out of already-exhausted employees. The CEOs implore employees to "support" their employers' ambitions by working harder, longer and more unquestioningly. It's satire, but with unnerving accuracy. The promo reflects the quiet reality many young professionals in India already feel but rarely articulate, here are three big questions it raises for anyone entering or navigating the workforce in 2025. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like 5 Books Warren Buffett Wants You to Read In 2025 Blinkist: Warren Buffett's Reading List Undo Is relentless hard work still a reliable path to professional security and advancement? Hard work has traditionally been the foundation of career success in India. It has represented personal resilience, discipline and the promise of upward mobility. For decades, it was widely believed that consistent effort would naturally lead to recognition, stability and professional growth. While diligence still holds value, the way organisations function and reward contributions has changed. Many workplaces now prioritise flexibility, efficiency and innovation. In these environments, professionals are recognised not just for how much they do, but for how thoughtfully and effectively they work. Time spent at a desk is no longer viewed as the primary indicator of commitment. Instead, loyalty is often assessed through the relevance and impact of one's contribution to the larger vision of the organisation. Within this evolving reality, success in 2025 is increasingly defined by clarity of thought, intentional action and the ability to adapt with purpose. Professionals who can prioritise wisely, approach challenges strategically and respond with agility are more likely to grow and lead. The focus is shifting away from doing more and moving toward doing better in ways that are sustainable and meaningful. Is job security becoming a myth, even for high performers? For a long time, job security was seen as the natural reward for consistent performance. High performers, in particular, were assumed to have an edge. Their output, dedication and reliability were considered indispensable. The unspoken contract was clear: deliver results and your place in the organisation would be secure. That equation no longer holds the same weight. As organisations adopt automation and AI tools, even the most reliable employees are being reassessed. Job roles are becoming more fluid and business decisions are increasingly driven by efficiency, scalability and the capacity to pivot quickly. In this environment, yesterday's performance does not always translate to tomorrow's relevance. Job security in 2025 is no longer about proving loyalty through years of service or exceeding quarterly targets, it depends on how well professionals can align themselves with shifting priorities. Those who embrace lifelong learning, develop adjacent skills and build professional versatility are more likely to remain employable, even when roles change or disappear. The new form of security is rooted in adaptability, not tenure. Is today's ambition shaped more by survival instincts than by personal purpose? Ambition was once defined by curiosity, long-term vision and the desire to make a unique contribution. It inspired individuals to innovate, build something meaningful and take calculated risks. But in 2025, ambition is increasingly being reshaped by uncertainty and fear of replacement. The rise of AI, changing job markets and rapid digital transformation have triggered a quiet anxiety across industries. Professionals are no longer simply looking to advance. Many are focused on staying employed, staying visible and staying ahead of automation. As a result, ambition is beginning to feel less like a pursuit and more like a defense mechanism. This mindset shift has consequences. When career choices are driven purely by survival, professionals may lose sight of what gives their work meaning. They may avoid creative risks, deprioritise learning for the sake of short-term stability or accept roles that do not align with their interests or strengths. To reclaim ambition as a positive force, it's important to stay connected to personal values, long-term goals and intellectual curiosity. In uncertain times, purpose can offer the clarity and direction that constant competition cannot. The challenge is not just to stay relevant but to do so in a way that feels authentic and fulfilling. In an age of increasing automation and changing corporate priorities, traditional markers like job titles, tenure and blind commitment are losing relevance. What matters now are human-centred skills such as adaptability, strategic thinking, emotional intelligence and a willingness to re-evaluate goals. For students and early-career professionals alike, the most important takeaway is that success is no longer linear or pre-defined. In one short video, this promo opens up a broader conversation that many workplaces are still reluctant to have and that may be its most powerful contribution.

From empowering the marginalized, Digital India to now make India a ‘trusted innovation partner' to the world: PM Modi
PM Modi New Delhi: Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Tuesday pitched the Digital India campaign as a 'trusted innovation partner to the world', and said the programme – which now completes a decade – has been transformative for those on the margins by democratising access, and building digital opportunities for all. 'From how we govern, to how we learn, transact, and build, Digital India is everywhere,' PM Modi said in a special message on 'A Decade of Digital India'. He said that while many initially feared that the use of technology will deepen the gap between the haves and the have-nots, the success of the programme changed that mindset as technology helped eliminate the gap between the haves and the have-nots. 'When the intent is right, innovation empowers the less empowered,' he said as he spoke about the positives from the 'India's Stack' of Digital Public Infrastructure (DPIs) such as UPI, Aadhaar, DBT (Direct Benefit Transfer), ONDC, CoWIN, and DigiLocker. 'We are moving from digital governance to global digital leadership, from India-first to India-for-the-world. Digital India has not remained a mere government program, it has become a people's movement. It is central to building an Aatmanirbhar Bharat , and to making India a trusted innovation partner to the world,' the PM said. He said the programme not only helped bridge the digital divide, but also resulted in democratising opportunity for all. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Giao dịch CFD với công nghệ và tốc độ tốt hơn IC Markets Đăng ký 'In 2014, India had around 25 crore internet connections. Today, that number has grown to over 97 crores. Over 42 lakh kilometres of Optical Fibre Cable equivalent to 11 times the distance between Earth and the Moon now connects even the most remote villages.' The PM said that the 'India Stack' has now emerged as the 'digital backbone' of the country with platforms such as UPI now handling over 100 billion transactions in a year. 'Around half of all real time digital transactions happen in India. Through DBT, over Rs 44 lakh crore has been transferred directly to citizens, cutting out middlemen and saving Rs 3.48 lakh crore in leakages.' Modi said India's digital economy is now empowering MSMEs and small entrepreneurs. 'ONDC (Open Network for Digital Commerce) is a revolutionary platform which opens a new window of opportunities by providing a seamless connection with huge market of buyers and sellers. GeM (Government E-Marketplace) enables the common man to sell goods and services to all arms of the govt. This not only empowers the common man with a huge market but also saves money for the govt. ' He said the Digital India programme had also helped the burgeoning startup ecosystem.'India now ranks among the Top 3 startup ecosystems in the world, with over 1.8 lakh startups. But this is more than a startup movement, it is a tech renaissance.' He said the $1.2 billion India AI Mission is now enabling access to 34,000 GPUs at globally-unmatched prices at less than $1/GPU hour, making India not just the most affordable internet economy, but also the most affordable compute destination. 'India has championed humanity-first AI. The New Delhi Declaration on AI promotes innovation with responsibility. We are establishing AI Centres of Excellence across the country. ' Modi said with a large footprint of digital consumption and innovation in India, the world is looking at the country to lead the next wave of innovation. 'To all innovators, entrepreneurs, and dreamers: the world is looking at India for the next digital breakthrough… Let us lead with technology that unites, includes, and uplifts.'
