    Business Headlines : The Adani Saga Continues

    The Adani Group has faced a significant crisis since allegations of accounting fraud and stock price manipulation were levied against it. To rebuild investor trust, the Adani Group held a series of investor meetings in Singapore and a two-day roadshow in Hong Kong, which worked temporarily as the group's stocks jumped after the roadshow ended.

    Business Headlines: Raghuram Rajan Questions the Government on Economy & Adani| Hindu Rate Of Growth

    Business Headlines : Discovery Of Lithium Good News, Now Hard Work Begins!! Jammu Kashmir | India |

    I discuss India's recent discovery of 5.9 million tonnes of lithium in Jammu and Kashmir, which gives India the third-largest reserves of lithium in the world after Chile and Australia. While this is excellent news, the video highlights that India's lack of manufacturing plants means that it cannot take advantage of this discovery yet, & it’s estimated that it will take 5 to 7 years to convert these reserves into commercial use. India needs to invest in infrastructure and technology to extract & utilize these reserves more efficiently. If India can get things right, this discovery could fuel the country's ambition for a greener future. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

    "If you like what you saw - follow me on Instagram @mr.talkstock and on YouTube @mr.talkstock7282 at for more such content as well as short videos, memes & collaborations. Few years ago, the main purpose of IPOs was for the company to raise money - to fund their operations, to pay off debts, to expand their businesses etc. These days, with so many of these new-age tech IPOs - the main purpose is to give their “early investors” a profitable exit.
