  The Union Budget 2024 has brought a mix of cheer and disappointment for electric vehicle (EV) manufacturers and buyers in India. While the budget has introduced some incentives to boost the adoption of EVs, it has also fallen short of expectations in some areas. Incentives for EV Manufacturers On the positive side, the budget has announced a reduction in the customs duty on lithium-ion batteries, which are a crucial component of EVs. This move is expected to make EVs more affordable and increase their adoption in the country. Additionally, the budget has also provided an outlay of Rs 2,700 crore for the development of EV infrastructure, which includes the setting up of charging stations and other supporting infrastructure. Disappointment for EV Buyers However, EV buyers have been left disappointed as the budget has not provided any direct incentives for them. There has been no reduction in the Goods and Services Tax (GST) on EVs, which is currently at 5%. Additionally, the budget has

 Have you ever conquered a mountain (literal or metaphorical) and felt a surge of satisfaction unlike anything else? That deep sense of accomplishment? It's a feeling often attributed to success, but there's a secret ingredient that makes victory truly taste sweet: difficulty. The quote by A. P. J. Abdul Kalam, "Man needs difficulties in life because they are necessary to enjoy success," perfectly captures this sentiment. Here's why overcoming challenges is crucial for appreciating our achievements: Earning Our Stripes: When success comes easily, it can feel unearned. We haven't put in the blood, sweat, and tears, so the reward loses its significance. Difficulties are like training exercises, building the strength and resilience needed to truly value our accomplishments. The Power of Perspective: Imagine scaling a sheer cliff face. Each handhold, each foothold, is a victory in itself. The struggles become stepping stones, reminding us of the journey that le

 Despite the constant march of technology in our lives, the world of construction seems stuck in a bygone era. While smartphones have revolutionized communication and self-driving cars are on the horizon, building a house often relies on methods that haven't changed much for decades. So why hasn't technology transformed building in the same way it's changed other industries? Fragmented Industry, Fragmented Solutions One major reason is the fragmented nature of the construction industry. Unlike car manufacturing, where a single company controls most aspects of the process, building involves a complex web of stakeholders. Architects, engineers, contractors, sub-contractors, and material suppliers all play a role. This makes it difficult to implement new technologies across the board. Imagine trying to get everyone to agree on a new way to hammer a nail! Bricks and Mortar Mindset Another hurdle is the traditional mindset in construction. Many industry professionals are comfort

Tech giant Google is set to make a big splash in India. The company plans to manufacture both Pixel smartphones and drones within the country.

Independent Drone Assembly While Foxconn handles the Pixel phones, Google plans to independently manufacture drones in Tamil Nadu. This is likely to be undertaken by Wing, a subsidiary of Google focused on drone delivery solutions. The specific location for drone assembly is expected to be Sriperumbudur, situated near Chennai, the capital city of Tamil Na

 It should be an action film, there should be some crazy villain from Pakistan, the hero should be our soldier, there should be some painful feelings, along with one or two sizzling songs...that's it. This is the latest box office formula of Hindi cinema. It is true that action films are the highest-grossing film category worldwide, but the film 'Fighter' is more of a show reel of the Indian Air Force than a masala film. This film shows that if the Indian Air Force is determined then how dare these crazy people from the neighboring countries even think of looking at India. The film 'Fighter' will be compared to Tom Cruise's films 'Top Gun' and 'Top Gun Maverick', people who have seen Kangana Ranaut's 'Tejas' will also find similarities with it, but this film is of Hrithik Roshan and Deepika Padukone. And, these two factors are enough to watch the film 'Fighter' in theatres. Yes, the fans of both will definitely be disappointed
