New Delhi [India], September 8: Gold prices have fallen from their recent high, but such a move is not unusual for the precious metal. History shows that gold has seen several sharp corrections over the years, including falls of 10-15% or more. Gold touched ₹1,63,229 per 10 grams on August 24. It then slipped in early September, trading between around ₹1.52 lakh and ₹1.59 lakh per 10 grams from September 1 to 3. The recent fall came after a strong rise in gold prices. However, past data shows that gold has gone through similar ups and downs before. Gold Has…

New Delhi: The long-awaited NSE IPO has moved one step closer to the stock market after the Securities and Exchange Board of India (SEBI) approved the proposed public issue of the National Stock Exchange of India (NSE) on September 4. The IPO is expected to be worth around ₹30,000 crore, making it one of the biggest public issues in India. For ordinary investors, however, the size of the IPO is only one part of the story. The bigger question is what the NSE IPO will actually mean for someone looking to buy its shares. What is the NSE IPO? NSE…
NEW DELHI: For much of 2026, foreign investors have been pulling money out of Indian equities, putting pressure on sentiment and raising questions about whether India’s relatively strong economic growth was enough to keep global capital interested. August, however, offered a notable change in direction. Foreign portfolio investors (FPIs) invested around $3.1 billion in Indian equities in August, marking their strongest monthly inflow in nearly two years, according to National Securities Depository data. The buying came after a difficult first half of the year and marked the second consecutive month of net FPI inflows. But the headline number needs some…
Prague [Czech Republic]: When we started Prague Film School, I did not want to create an institution where students spent most of their time talking about films they might one day make. Film is ultimately a practical discipline. You can study structure, cinematography, performance and editing in a classroom, but there comes a point when you have to pick up a camera, work with actors and crew, find a location and make decisions when things do not go according to plan. Prague gave us the environment to build a school around that belief. There are cities where a film school…

New Delhi: India wants to make more products at home and become a bigger part of global supply chains. But producing more will not be enough.

New Delhi: India’s startup ecosystem has been transformed over the past few years. Growing out of a few major cities by previous standards, it now draws young innovators from all parts of the country. Startups are building businesses, creating jobs and new opportunities – trends the government wants to encourage even further.

He also mentioned the government’s Rs 1 lakh crore Innovation Fund, encouraging young Indians to put their ideas…
NEW DELHI: Gold has become expensive enough to make many buyers think twice. Yet Indians have not walked away from the yellow metal. Instead, something more interesting is happening. People are changing what they buy, how much they buy and where they put their money. That makes India’s gold market less about a simple question of whether people are buying or not, and more about how Indian households are adapting to higher prices. Indians Are Buying Less Gold, But Spending More The latest data from the World Gold Council shows just how sharply gold prices have changed the equation. In…
