The B28 trainset is especially significant because it represents India’s move towards domestic capability in high-speed rolling stock. BEML was awarded the contract by the Integral Coach Factory to design, manufacture and commission two high-speed trainsets. The project is valued at around ₹866.87 crore and is being seen as a foundation for future indigenous high-speed rail development.

The announcement reflects Reliance’s wider strategy of expanding from telecom and digital connectivity into deep technology platforms. After transforming India’s data and mobile internet landscape through Jio, the company is now aiming to play a similar role in artificial intelligence by making AI tools more accessible, affordable and useful for everyday users as well as enterprises.

The rise in exports has been driven mainly by competitive Indian corn prices. Relatively weak domestic prices have made Indian corn attractive for buyers in nearby markets such as Bangladesh, Vietnam, Nepal, Sri Lanka and Bhutan. Lower freight costs, shorter shipping distances and the ability to move smaller cargoes have added to India’s advantage in these destinations.

India’s nuclear energy sector has achieved a significant milestone with the return of the country’s

The Smart Warehousing System integrates cutting-edge technologies such as Artificial Intelligence (AI), the Internet of Things (IoT), automation, and advanced analytics. These features will help streamline warehouse operations, improve governance, and enhance visibility across storage facilities.

The plant has been developed by the Eastern Ri Bhoi Organic Farmer Producer Company and is designed to process 10,346 metric tonnes of spices annually.

Battery energy storage systems, or BESS, solve one of the biggest challenges in renewable energy. Solar power is strongest during the day, wind power varies with weather, and electricity demand often peaks in the evening. Storage bridges this gap by saving surplus power when generation is high and releasing it when the grid needs support. For a country adding renewable capacity at record pace, storage is becoming essential for reliability, flexibility and round-the-clock clean electricity.
