The Cascades Neopolis, ultra-luxury project unveiled
With an estimated investment of Rs3,169 crore, the landmark project will feature five towering 63-storey buildings, each rising 217 metres high, making it one of the tallest residential developments in South India. Located in the upscale Neopolis area, the development spans 7.34 acres and is expected to be completed by March 2030. The Cascades will house 1,189 spacious 3BHK and 4BHK apartments, ranging from 2,560 to 4,825 sq. ft, alongside 10 ultra-premium triplex penthouses equipped with private pools on the 54th floor. The project includes seven levels of parking (two basement and five podium levels) and will offer both ground-level and sky-level amenities.
Positioned as a future-ready and environmentally responsible community, the project incorporates smart home automation, holistic wellness zones, landscaped gardens, and advanced sustainable features such as rainwater harvesting, solar-powered common areas, and air purification systems. The project is targeting prestigious WELL and IGBC Platinum Pre-Certifications—potentially becoming the first residential development in South India to achieve the former.

NSE's investor base surges ahead of anticipated IPO, driving mkt optimism
Anticipation of a long-awaited initial public offering (IPO) is driving a remarkable influx of retail investors into the National Stock Exchange (NSE). The exchange's public shareholder base has ballooned to 1.57 lakh as of June 2025, a dramatic four-fold increase since the end of March. Retail investors, defined as individuals holding nominal share capital up to ₹2 lakh, are leading this charge. Their numbers skyrocketed from approximately 34,000 in March to 1.46 lakh by June, boosting their collective stake in the country's largest exchange from 9.89 per cent to 11.81 per cent. This surge also follows a significant operational change: the activation of NSE's International Securities Identification Number (ISIN) on March 24. This unique global code has streamlined the share transfer process, slashing transaction times from months to just days. Market participants confirm shares are now freely transferable, with robust volumes from both buyers and sellers. "The pre-ISIN era involved cumbersome document compliance, limiting transactions," explained Abhay Doshi, Co-founder of UnlistedArena. "Since the stock was effectively 'defreezed,' we've seen robust investor demand significantly expanding the shareholder base. Growing clarity and progress on the IPO have further fueled this positive sentiment." The heightened demand has propelled NSE's unlisted share price to ₹2,225 apiece, valuing the exchange at approximately ₹5.5 trillion. This marks a substantial rise from around ₹1,600 at the start of the current financial year. "The rise underscores growing retail confidence in the exchange as a wealth creation opportunity," noted Uday Tardalkar, economist and market expert. "We're also seeing stake dilution from some long-term HNI holders." While retail ownership surged, the stake held by individual public shareholders owning over ₹2 lakh share capital dipped slightly to 9.52 per cent (from 9.64 per cent). Foreign ownership also declined by nearly one percentage point since March. IPO hopes have intensified following indications that the NSE is nearing a ₹1,388-crore settlement with the Securities and Exchange Board of India (Sebi) regarding long-pending co-location and dark fibre cases. Sources suggest Sebi could grant the crucial no-objection certificate (NOC) for filing the Draft Red Herring Prospectus (DRHP) within the next two months. "Strong investor demand for ownership creates a compelling case for listing," stated Mrugank Paranjape, Chairman of the IMC Task Force on Capital Markets and Managing Partner at MCQube. "Listing will enable better public price discovery, addressing the current lack of clarity on valuation." Among NSE's top shareholders are Life Insurance Corporation (LIC), SBI Capital Markets, Aranda Investments (Mauritius), State Bank of India (SBI), Canada Pension Plan Investment Board, and prominent investor Radhakishan Damani.

Trump-Xi meet likely in Shanghai or on the sidelines of Apec summit in South Korea: Report
This month, Chinese Foreign Minister Wang Yi and US Secretary of State Marco Rubio met face-to-face, a step toward a potential leaders' summit. read more The Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation (Apec) summit in South Korea, set for October 30 to November 1, offers a key opportunity for Chinese President Xi Jinping and his US counterpart Donald Trump to meet, South China Morning Post (SCMP) reported, citing sources. Trump might visit China beforehand or meet Xi on the sidelines of the Apec event in Gyeongju, where Xi plans to attend, though Trump's participation is unconfirmed, the Hong Kong based outlet reported. STORY CONTINUES BELOW THIS AD This month, Chinese Foreign Minister Wang Yi and US Secretary of State Marco Rubio met face-to-face, a step toward a potential leaders' summit. Last month, Xi invited Trump and his wife to China, an invitation Trump reciprocated. Rubio noted a 'strong desire on both sides' for a presidents' meeting. US-China relations have been rocky since Trump's January return to the White House, as the US leader issued threats of imposing 145 per cent tariffs on Chinese goods. Both sides have since worked on stabilising ties, reaching a preliminary trade deal easing China's rare-earth export restrictions and US technology trade barriers. Analysts suggest a pre-Apec meeting in China, possibly in Shanghai, is likely to differentiate from Trump's 2017 Beijing visit. Diao Daming of Renmin University was quoted by SCMP as saying: 'Under favourable conditions and an appropriate atmosphere, any form of interaction between the two leaders will aid in the stabilisation and development of US-China relations.' Bonnie Glaser of the German Marshall Fund noted that China sees a summit as stabilising. 'They maintain that a leaders' meeting could create greater stability in the relationship,' she said, adding it could allow Xi to push for eased technology restrictions and the US reaffirmation against Taiwan independence. Beijing views Taiwan as its territory, to be reunited if necessary by force. The US, while not recognising Taiwan's independence, opposes forceful takeover and is obligated to arm Taiwan. STORY CONTINUES BELOW THIS AD Sun Chenghao of Tsinghua University said a summit could break deadlocks on issues like fentanyl and tariffs: 'If certain issues can be clarified directly through a summit between the two leaders, I believe we could see relatively swift breakthroughs in specific areas of US-China relations.' Chen Qi of Tsinghua added: 'Both sides are indeed working to create a conducive atmosphere for a meeting.' Cooperation on trade and export controls could foster positive interactions. Observers note that Trump's greater eagerness gives Beijing leverage. 'It's up to China. Trump would be on a plane to Beijing tomorrow if he could,' said Jeremy Chan of Eurasia Group. 'China is very protocol driven and wants all agreements lined up well in advance while Trump would be happy to hash it all out over a Big Mac.' However, Taiwan or hawkish US actions could derail plans. 'The summit will be well telegraphed in advance,' Chan said. 'But all it would take would be one slip up along the way to derail the whole thing.' STORY CONTINUES BELOW THIS AD
