7.8% GDP growth. India continues to surprise on the upside!
- Investment: +11.9%
- Manufacturing: +9.2%
- Services: +10%
And this despite oil shocks and global uncertainty. Credit where it is due: PM Modi’s focus on reforms, infrastructure, investment and fiscal stability is delivering. The India growth story remains firmly on track. I only hope the rains do not play spoilsport in the future.
India GDP growth Q1 (April-June) at 7.8%. This was the peak period of Iran conflict. India has shown resilience vis a vis concerns in March and April.
India has also bought insurance with ~ $100 bn+ Foreign Currency deposits for 3 to 5 year maturity.
However, Middle East is still unresolved, AI game is full on, and US bond yields are playing truant.
For us, it is time to feel better, but have work to do, and let us not lower guard.

Money may or may not buy happiness, but it can buy freedom. Freedom from long commutes, unwanted work, constant financial anxiety, and freedom to spend time with family, friends and yourself. Beyond a point, wealth is more about owning more of your time.
Covering the demise of two Ganpati revellers yesterday makes one realise how in Mumbai, Ganpati celebrations are an emotion.
For Mumbaikars, it is one of the most loved and revered festivals. People from different faiths happily visit the homes of friends and neighbours who bring Bappa home. I do it too. At the same time, I think we should try and celebrate the festival in a way that is kinder to the environment. There are many such ways we can make our celebrations more sustainable without taking away from the joy or devotion of the festival.
Because celebrating any festival and caring for the environment don't have to be two different things. 🙏🏽

Walked the Prabhadevi railway station premises today. Citizens had raised concerns around overcrowding and limited walking space.
Officials from Railways, MMRDA, Traffic Police and RPF joined the visit.
The area sees high pedestrian movement, especially during peak hours.
Over the next few weeks, the premises will see improvements. As per instructions of Hon. Commissioner @AshwiniBhide mam, BMC will actively work on improving footpaths and roads for pedestrian priority and safety outside both the north and south ends of the station.
All agencies will work on improving the area around the station and resolve problems highlighted by the citizens.
Railways will expedite the work on the new staircase being built at the south end and also improve the area inside the railway premises.
Which world are you talking about @prakashraaj?
All Hollywood movies are full of anti-Russia operations.
Russian movies have anti-US materials.
Chinese movies have anti-US and anti-Japanese materials.
Japanese movies have anti-US and anti-China materials.
Even your Pakistani movie industry is full of anti-India propaganda.
Each country portrays its enemy the same way.
The only difference is they don't have traitors within them talking nonsense.

▪️NHAI is constructing a temporary access road at the Talasari interchange of Delhi-Mumbai Expressway.
▪️As infra enthusiasts already know, Package 10 of the Delhi-Mumbai Expressway has been delayed due to the contractor (Roadway Solutions India Infra Ltd.), and due to this, the Talasari interchange is also still incomplete.
▪️With this temporary access road, people would be able to get onto the expressway.
▪️Except this interchange, everything else would be ready by December 2026, including the under-construction bridge on Vaitarna river in Package 13.
▪️By December 2026, the section of the expressway from Talasari interchange to Virar interchange would be opened for traffic, which will vastly reduce the traffic load on Mumbai-Ahmedabad highway (NH48).
▪️If Vadape interchange work is completed by December, NHAI might also open the expressway upto Amane interchange, which will allow seamless flow of traffic from Delhi-Mumbai Expressway to Mumbai-Nagpur Samruddhi Expressway.
