FDA observations, leadership change keep Sun Pharma stock in spotlight on Monday
The US Food and Drug Administration (USFDA) issued a Form-483 with eight observations concerning manufacturing practices at Sun Pharma's Halol facility in Gujarat. While the observations do not constitute regulatory action, they point to areas requiring corrective measures to meet FDA compliance standards. Sun Pharma has acknowledged the observations and committed to addressing them promptly.
The inspection, conducted between June 2 and June 13, 2025, is especially significant as the Halol plant has been under an import alert since December 2022 due to previous regulatory violations.
In a parallel development, the company announced the elevation of Kirti Ganorkar to the role of Managing Director, effective September 1, 2025. Ganorkar, who has headed Sun Pharma's India business since 2019, will take over full operational responsibilities, with all functions reporting directly to him. Founder Dilip Shanghvi will continue as Executive Chairman of the Board, ensuring strategic continuity.
In light of these developments, investors are expected to closely monitor the company's stock performance in the coming days. Market analysts say the resolution of USFDA concerns at Halol and the smooth execution of the leadership transition will be key to shaping investor sentiment and the company's near-term outlook.

ITR filing for salaried employees is easier with these sources of income: Here's how
The Mental Discomfort Academy Empower your mind, elevate your skills The Changes The ITR filing season is slowly started picking up, as close to 71.5 lakh returns already filed for AY 2025-26 as of June 29, 2025. However, considering the trend from the previous assessment year (AY 2024-25), where approximately 8.82 crore ITRs were filed between April 1, 2024, and January 31, 2025 (the latest available data on I-T website), this year's filings still have a long way to go. The last year's number was over 7% higher than the returns filed in the previous AY i.e. 2023-24. However, with the total number of registered individuals crossing 13 crore on the I-T website, it's expected that close to 10 crore people will file their ITRs during the current assessment year, which is a significant this year, the IT Department announced an unexpected deadline extension well in advance, moving the due date for filing ITR from the usual July 31 to September 15, 2025 for AY 2025-26. According to the Central Board of Direct Taxes (CBDT), the due date for filing has been extended, "In view of the extensive changes introduced in the notified ITRs and considering the time required for system readiness and rollout of ITR utilities for Assessment Year (AY) 2025-26."Despite this extension, the deadline for employers to issue Form 16 remained June 15.

For salaried taxpayers, this remains the most essential document for accurate filing of their the process of filing ITRs has become smoother over the years, especially for salaried individuals, there's still a sense of discomfort and psychological barrier or anxiety that many tax payers experience when it comes to tax-related compliances. This is especially because most people interact with the tax system only once a year-during return filing-and many not even once, and delegate the task entirely to a tax expert. In truth, the filing process for salaried individuals is now largely streamlined, with most details pre-filled in the ITR forms. In many cases, it's just a matter of reviewing a few fields and submitting the complexity increases for those with multiple income sources-such as rental income, capital gains from investments, or earnings from freelance or business activities. For such taxpayers, filing requires a deeper understanding of tax rules, exemptions, deductions, accurate reporting and ITR forms applicability and so other thing that makes ITR filing a bit challenging is, that almost every year, there are a few tweaks and changes in ITR forms and other documents, based on changes in the Finance Act and CBDT circulars, and this year is no exception. This year's changes demand a little more diligence. Form 16 for FY 2024-25 has undergone a few updates that taxpayers should be aware of. One of the most important changes is the inclusion of income from other sources, such as interest or dividends, along with any Tax Collected at Source (TCS) on large expenses like foreign travel or the purchase of high-value items. These details are to be declared in Form 12BAA, which employees are expected to submit to their significant update pertains to how standard deductions are reflected based on the chosen tax regime. Under the old regime, the standard deduction remains Rs 50,000, whereas under the new regime, it has been increased to Rs 75,000. There are also more detailed disclosures under various salary heads, including House Rent Allowance (HRA) and Leave Travel Allowance (LTA), to ensure that exemptions and deductions are accurately claimed. A new reporting section-Column 388A-has been added to capture TDS and TCS from non-salary sources, helping to align employer and government records more changes bring with them a few challenges. One major concern is confusion around selecting the correct tax regime. Choosing the wrong one could result in paying more tax or missing out on eligible deductions.

Missing or incorrect entries, especially related to income from other sources, can also cause errors in tax ensure a smooth filing experience, salaried individuals should keep a few essential documents ready. These include Form 16, Form 12BAA (if applicable), interest certificates from banks, rent receipts if claiming HRA, donation receipts, and statements of any capital gains.

Telangana to curb industrial mishaps: Smart tech in focus; AI tools, safety rules to be enforced
HYDERABAD: With a rise in industrial mishaps, especially in chemical, pharma, and other hazardous sectors, and growing concerns about safety, the Telangana govt has decided to encourage the use of modern and emerging safety technologies in these industries. Some measures and upgrades, including classification of industries into specific risk categories, will be made mandatory. Official sources said the preliminary reason for the dryer blast in the Sigachi factory in Pashamylaram was high temperature. To monitor real-time temperatures, pressure levels, and gas leaks, Internet of Things (IoT)based sensors are available that can issue timely alerts.

Typically embedded in or attached to machines, these compact devices gather and send real-time information, and can also be integrated with automatic shut-off valves and interlock systems. 'There are about 300 industrial units around Hyderabad, especially pharma companies, which have US FDA facilities. They can afford to use safer and smarter technologies along with other industries. A mishap in any one unit doesn't just affect that particular company, but also disrupts supply chain of other industries, apart from endangering the lives of employees and workers. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Nejpohodlnější farmářská hra.
