Aadhar Housing Finance IPO Review 

BP Equities Pvt Ltd

The brokerage claims that the company and management team’s capabilities are demonstrated by the overall growth, portfolio performance, asset quality, and sustained profitability during these times. Aavas Financiers (14.1%) and Home First Finance (13.5%) were the next two financial companies with the greatest return on equity in FY23, with Aadhar Housing Finance reporting the second-highest rate at 15.9%. Among the peers analyzed, it also claimed the third lowest personnel cost over the same time, at 2.10% in FY23. Aadhar Housing Finance, one of the peer sets under analysis, reported annualized yield on advance and return on equity for the nine months ending December 31, 2023, at 14.2% and 18.4%, respectively.

The brokerage said that as time goes on, it anticipates improved operational performance, driven mostly by the low-income housing segment’s dominance, cheap borrowing costs, and greater peer return ratios. The stock is priced at 3.1x P/BVPS on FY23 book value at a higher price range of Rs. 315, which they believe is reasonable in comparison to its rivals. As a result, the brokerage suggests giving the issue a SUBSCRIBE rating.

Swastika Investmart Ltd

The brokerage claims that there are a few significant obstacles that need to be carefully considered. Because of the creditworthiness of its low-income customers and the rise of non-performing assets (NPAs), Aadhar is exposed to inherent risks. In addition, the firm faces volatility in loan rates and competes in a highly competitive field.

Although Aadhar’s IPO value of 22.8x P/E and 3.36x P/BV seems reasonable, caution is necessary due to the company’s significant reliance on borrowing. As a result, the brokerage only advises high-risk investors looking for sustained exposure to the affordable housing market to consider this IPO.

‘Grey market premium’ indicates investors’ readiness to pay more than the issue price.

12-year-old Schoolgirl Crushed Under The Truck at Zirakpur.

by Leave a Comment

A Class VII student of Manav Mangal Smart World School, Zirakpur, was crushed under the wheels of a truck while she along with her mother was on her way to school on the Ambala-Chandigarh national highway near the Singhpura Chowk this morning.

Deceased Ananya (12), a resident of Preet Colony, Zirakpur, was riding pillion on a scooter with her mother Pushpa. The scooter skidded on the uneven patch strewn with gravel close to a truck laden with iron bars.

Understanding the Difference: Multi-Asset Allocation Funds Vs Balanced Advantage Funds

Passers-by said the National Highways Authority of India (NHAI) officials had been apathetic to the bad condition of the patch, which led to the accident and death of the child.

“The NHAI, which is carrying out carpeting work on the road, left this patch unmetalled. No signage or caution board has been put up at the bald patch near the Singhpura Chowk. The construction of two vehicular underpasses (VUPs) has been hanging fire for two years now.

12-year-old schoolgirl crushed under truck at Zirakpur.

“This is criminal on the part of the authorities. They are bound to ensure safe commuting at construction sites also. They should be booked under Section 198 A of the Motor Vehicle Act (Amended) 2019, which deals with the failure to comply with standards for road design, construction, and maintenance,” said Harman Sidhu of ArriveSAFE, an NGO that works on road safety.

Shockingly, road users just passed by as the injured woman kept crying near her daughter’s body. Passers-by also complained that the police vehicle reached the spot almost half an hour later.

The truck driver, Kali Bhushan (23) of Jammu, reportedly tried to flee the spot but was nabbed by a passer-by. An ambulance of a charitable body later shifted the body to the mortuary of the Dera Bassi subdivisional hospital.

The truck driver told the police that he was on his way to Ambala from Baddi to deliver iron bars.

A case of negligent driving has been registered against the driver at the Zirakpur police station.

NHAI apathetic to the safety of commuters: Residents

Residents are angry over the “never-ending” construction of vehicular underpasses by the National Highways Authority of India (NHAI). Road users flayed its officials for haphazard construction work. The administration has also failed to resolve the problem of snarl-ups at the construction site.

Sadak Suraksha Force vehicle reaches late

An ambulance of a charitable body reached the spot before the Sadak Surakhya Force (SSF) vehicle. Personnel of the SSF were seen managing the traffic at the accident spot. Residents said the ambulance service at the Dhakoli Community Health Centre was erratic and mostly remained unavailable.

No caution board at mishap-prone spot

Signage or caution boards are missing near the construction site on the national highway. Iron spikes protruding from the road drainage pose a danger to road users.

“Let’s welcome our Prime Minister Narendra Modi who is coming to Rajampeta to give an assurance for the aspirations of Andhra people,” the Andhra Pradesh BJP said in a post on ‘X’ on Tuesday.

Wednesday’s public meeting is going to be Modi’s third in the southern state in the run-up to the simultaneous Lok Sabha and Assembly polls on May 13.

It comes in the wake of two recent meetings at Rajamahendravaram and Anakapalli recently, preceded by the first NDA election meeting at Boppudi village in Palnadu district’s Chilakaluripeta Mandal on March 17 after the announcement of the election schedule on March 16.

N Kiran Kumar is the BJP’s Lok Sabha candidate from the Rajampeta constituency. He will take on the YSRCP’s P Mithun Reddy, while the TDP’s K Sivanath will take on his brother K Srinivas from the ruling party in the Vijayawada Lok Sabha seat.

As part of a seat-sharing deal among NDA partners, the TDP was allocated 144 Assembly and 17 Lok Sabha constituencies while the BJP will contest from six Lok Sabha and 10 Assembly seats.

The Janasena will contest two Lok Sabha and 21 Assembly seats.

Election results will be declared on June 4.

Sanju Samson pays the price for a heated argument with on-field umpires as BCCI slaps heavy penalty on RR captain

by Leave a Comment

Sanju Samson was at the receiving end of a controversial dismissal during the match against Delhi Capitals.

Rajasthan Royals skipper Sanju Samson was fined 30 per cent of his match fees for his quarrel with the umpires over his debatable dismissal against the hosts Delhi Capitals at the Arun Jaitley Stadium on Tuesday. Samson was anchoring the Royals to a comprehensive win at 86 runs while chasing a 222-run target. However, his innings were cut short by DC bowler Mukesh Kumar after he tried to hit him over long-on but was caught by Shai Hope, who managed to stay inside the boundary. As the catch was looked at very closely, the umpires extensively checked it before the RR skipper was finally given out.

However, Samson did not look pleased with the decision as he felt that Shai Hope had touched the boundary and was involved in a heated argument with the umpires. While RR failed to win the match, the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) imposed a heavy penalty on the Royals’ wicket-keeper for breaching the BCCI code of conduct.

“Mr Sanju Samson has been fined 30 per cent of his match fees for breaching the IPL Code of Conduct during Match 56 of the Tata Indian Premier League (IPL) 2024 against Delhi Capitals at Arun Jaitley Stadium, Delhi on May 07, 2024,” the official statement read.

“Samson committed a Level 1 offence under Article 2.8 of the IPL’s Code of Conduct. He admitted to the offence and accepted the Match Referee’s sanction. For Level 1 breaches of the Code of Conduct, the Match Referee’s decision is final and binding,” it further stated

RR’s team director, Kumar Sangakkara, also stated the difficulties faced by the umpires in announcing the verdict at crucial junctures of the game.

“It depends on replays and angles, and sometimes you think the foot’s touched. But it is a difficult one for the third umpire to judge. The game was at a crucial stage, so that happens in cricket. We have different perspectives on it. At the end of the day, you have to stand by that decision in terms of what the umpires did. If we have any other kind of opinion on it, we will share it with the umpire and sort it out. But irrespective of that dismissal, we still should have probably seen that game home,” Sangakkara said.

The second penalty on Samson this year

This is not the first time when the RR captain was punished this year; earlier, during the match against Gujarat Titans, Samson faced an INR 12 lakh penalty for a slow over-rate.

Rajasthan Royals, despite the loss against DC, are comfortably placed at the second spot in the points table and have a four-point lead over the third-placed Chennai Super Kings.

Samson believed that the match could’ve turned in RR’s favour as he lauded his players for their performances.

“I think we had it in our hands, it was like 11-12 runs per over, it was achievable, but these things happen in IPL. We are doing both the things fine, we would like to stick to what the conditions demand, 220 was 10 runs extra to chase, if we had conceded a couple of fewer boundaries, we would have made it through,” Samson had said in the post-match presentation.

Nephew Akash Anand is no longer the political heir to Mayawati until he develops “maturity.”

Chief of the Bahujan Samaj Party Mayawati disqualified her nephew Akash Anand from serving as her political heir, stating that he must gain “maturity” before taking on these responsibilities.

  • Mayawati removes nephew Akash Anand as BSP’s National Coordinator
  • Akash Anand was declared successor in December 2023
  • Case of Code of Conduct violation registered against Akash recently

Bahujan Samaj Party (BSP) supremo Mayawati on Tuesday removed her nephew Akash Anand as her political heir and party’s National Coordinator, saying he needs to reach “maturity” before assuming these roles.

In a series of posts on X, Mayawati said, “It is known that BSP, besides being a party, is also a movement for self-respect and self-esteem of Baba Saheb Dr Bhimrao Ambedkar and social change for which Shri Kanshi Ram ji and I have dedicated our entire lives and a new generation is also being prepared to give it momentum.”

“In the same sequence, along with promoting other people in the party, I declared Shri Akash Anand as the National Coordinator and his successor, but in the larger interest of the party and the movement, he is being separated from both these important responsibilities until he attains full maturity,” she added.

Mayawati further informed that Anand Kumar, Akash’s father, will continue in his role with the party.

On December 10 last year, Mayawati declared Akash Anand, 28, as her successor. Anand, who has done his MBA in London, was given charge of the party’s National Coordinator.

Akash Anand was recently in the news after a case of Model Code of Conduct violation was registered against him in Uttar Pradesh’s Sitapur. The action came after the district administration took cognizance of Anand’s speech at an election rally, where he compared the BJP government in the state with the Taliban.

Kim Kardashian 2024 Met Gala Dress Was Designed to Create Drama, But It’s Getting Old.

by Leave a Comment

Kim Kardashian’s 2024 Met Gala ensemble featured a sheer, silver dress with sparkling drapes and an asymmetrical gray knit shawl. The goal was to elongate her waist to resemble a pencil. Is that what’s upsetting you? That was most likely the intention.

That appears to be the case, at least right now. Kardashian has become well-known at fashion’s most important event in recent years, but not because she expertly pulled off a red-carpet moment meant to highlight an enduring work of wearable art.

Rather, Kim Kardashian has made a career out of stirring up controversy by demonstrating to the public that she can bend her body in ways that most regular people cannot fit into gowns. She practically guarantees weeks of online discussion by doing this.

Kim Kardashian

It hasn’t always been this way. Before her partnership with Kanye West, there wasn’t a world in which any Kim Kardashian would have walked the Met Gala red carpet. Many swore that if she and her sisters ever attended, their inclusion as hoi polloi reality stars, not real celebrities, would mark the end of the event’s prestige as we know it (in fact, in 2012 Page Six reported a still-unconfirmed rumor that Anna Wintour herself had banned Kardashian from attending).

When Kardashian finally did make her debut, she did so in 2013 as the date of her then-partner and fashion insider West, pregnant with their first child, no less. She later admitted she was so nervous and sure that no one “wanted her there” that she cried after the event. At the time her tight floral Givenchy dress and gloves ensemble was unusual—and created memes we’re still seeing—but it wasn’t designed to shock.

Google Pixel 8a launched in India with Tensor G3 SoC with Gemini AI: pricing, specifications, launch deals, and more

In the decade since Kardashian and her sisters have all attended many times and are now considered Met Gala staples. However, in the past few years, it seems that Kardashian is less focused on fashion and more focused on the all-consuming need to ensure that we all talk (and talk and talk) about her seemingly nonhuman body.

This started in 2022 with the Marilyn Monroe dress debacle, when Kardashian appeared on the carpet in Monroe’s “Happy Birthday, Mr. President” gown. If you remember, fashion lovers and historians were outraged that Kardashian was allowed to wear the dress at all, especially when it was rumored that she had damaged it in the process (the Ripley’s Believe It or Not Museum, which owned the dress, later denied).

Many were disturbed by Kardashian’s casual admission of the drastic measures she took to fit into the dress, mainly that she essentially didn’t eat for three weeks.

“I would wear a sauna suit twice a day, run on the treadmill, completely cut out all sugar and all carbs, and just eat the cleanest veggies and protein,” she told Vogue. “I didn’t starve myself, but I was so strict.”

As we wrote at the time, Kardashian’s promotion of such an extreme crash diet was “both alarming and outdated,” and many people were justifiably up in arms about it. It was all anyone talked about for weeks after the gala, and the instance was among the first to spark the Ozempic discourse, as the drug was relatively unknown to the masses in 2022. She was, for better or for worse, the Met’s main character.

That’s why when I first saw Kardashian’s outfit on the red carpet last night that teeny-tiny waist, I had to roll my eyes. Are we doing this again? It just seems so obvious and tired at this point. Her midsection was crammed into such a ridiculous corset that many joked that it looked like she had her ribs removed. Other commenters on social media noted how physically miserable she looked, wondered if her organs got crushed, and said it looked as though she was crying tears of pain on the red carpet.

Arvind Kejriwal News LIVE: “You Can’t Sign Files If You Get Bail”

We could get mad at her for, once again, showing us an unrealistic and harmful standard of body modification and thinspo. We could debate what it means that she can have the smallest waist in modern history. But I don’t even want to go there.

Why? Because it’s boring at this point. The Kardashian bread and butter is causing scandal and gossip, often at the expense of making women feel bad about the way they look, and it’s frankly stale. We’ve been down this road before, and it’s not even about how she looks anyway. It’s all about the drama and the story, and it’s useless to participate.

Besides, there are so many more interesting things to talk about at the Met. Like Sabrina and Barry! Zendaya! Tyla’s cool sand dress! Even Doja Cat in a towel is more exciting.

Debating whether or not Kim Kardashian is too skinny is a snooze. Especially when we know that it’s all manufactured for us to do just that. So Kim Kardashian  Met Gala 2024 look is one celebrity gossip narrative that I very much would like to be excluded from.

Globally, asthma is ranked 24th among the leading causes of years lived with disability and continues to be a major source of global economic burden. As per The Global Asthma Report 2022, about 1,000 people per day die of asthma.

  • As per The Global Asthma Report 2022, about 1,000 people per day die of asthma
  • One of the major challenges of asthmatic burden in India is the less use of inhaled corticosteroids (ICS)
  • Control indoor air pollution to lower risk of asthma, say doctors

Asthma is a respiratory disease characterized by chronic airway inflammation. It is quite common as it affects around 262 million people worldwide, as estimated by the Global Burden of Disease Collaboration in 2019.

Asthma is caused by the inflammation and narrowing of the airways in the lungs which leads to difficulty in breathing, chest tightness, and a combination of coughing and wheezing.

Globally, this disease is ranked 24th among the leading causes of years lived with disability and continues to be a major source of global economic burden.

As per The Global Asthma Report 2022, about 1,000 people per day die of asthma. This highlights the seriousness of the issue as most cases are preventable.

On World Asthma Day, doctors share how we can reduce this burden in India, especially since 34.3 million people suffer from asthma. India contributes to 46% of global asthma deaths, as per the latest Global Burden of Disease 2021 Report.

“We must increase awareness and understanding of asthma among both healthcare professionals and the general population. Education is important for prevention and management,” highlighted Dr Amrish Patel, Pulmonologist & Critical Care Specialist, at Sterling Hospitals, Gurukul.

While, in most cases, asthma is diagnosed during childhood, sometimes, the allergic symptoms are developed in adulthood or old age.

The International Study of Asthma and Allergy in Childhood (ISAAC) Phase I (1995) and Phase III (2001–03), showed that around 6% of children in India had current wheezing and identified several environmental factors associated with asthma globally.

These factors include environmental tobacco smoke, cooking with firewood, exposure to heavy truck traffic, obesity, fast-food consumption, dampness in homes and paracetamol or antibiotic use.

One of the major challenges of asthmatic burden in India is the lack of inhaled corticosteroid (ICS) use.

“Although most types of inhaled corticosteroids (ICS), Beta2-agonist and combination inhalers are available at pharmacies these are expensive in comparison to oral formulations,” researchers mentioned in the Global Asthma Report 2022.

They found that many people with asthma still use oral treatment instead of inhalers, which can help prevent symptoms from recurring.

“Most people don’t inhale corticosteroids (ICS) for because they don’t know. People are also worried when they read the name ‘steroids’ they think it will cause side effects in the body which is not true for inhaled corticosteroids since these are inhaled in microgram doses and go directly into the lungs. The benefits outweigh the risks,” said Dr Neetu Jain, Senior Consultant Pulmonologist at PSRI Hospital, New Delhi.

The expert added that one of the major reasons for burden is that some people have been using the same inhalers they have been on since their childhood.

When there is suboptimal control of asthma, over a while, the lung capacity goes down, said Dr Jain.

While research and innovation hold the key to breaking new ground in asthma management and prevention, subtle elements like lifestyle changes and environmental factors are also ways to prevent fatal asthma attacks.

“A variety of environmental triggers, including air pollution and indoor allergens, pose a constant threat to respiratory health. Mitigating these risks is essential and we can create an environment that improves respiratory well-being,” said Dr Patel.

Moreover, managing a stressful lifestyle is important.

Dr Patel pointed out a common taboo among patients who stop their medication after their symptoms get better because they don’t want to be “habitual” of it.

“I suggest that anything that is not required for your body and you take it frequently then it is habitual. But inhalers provide a good quality of life so that taboo shouldn’t exist,” he said.

The common cause of asthma is indoor air pollution like dust, mites, smoke, fungus, and certain kinds of grasses. Even stress can exacerbate in certain people.

But when it comes to controlling , the main cause is indoor air pollution. “We don’t understand that dhoop, agarbatti, air freshener, perfumes, and deodorant, use of carpets, moldy places in homes can increase cases of ,” added Dr Jain.

The experts highlighted that people in India should get an early and correct diagnosis and be given the right medication to reduce cases. “Take your inhaled medications regularly and don’t stop till your doctor says so,” advised Dr Patel.
