What sparked the rally in Optiemus Infracom share price today?
Optiemus Infracom shares surged today after the company said its wholly-owned subsidiary Optiemus Electronics has inked a strategic partnership with Chinese consumer electronics giant OnePlus to locally manufacture premium Internet of Things (IoT) devices in India.
In a statement, Optiemus Infracom said the collaboration marks a major milestone in boosting domestic manufacturing under OnePlus' long-term vision for the Indian market. The partnership also supports the company's ongoing 'Project Starlight,' which focuses on strengthening localisation efforts in the region.
Ashok Gupta, executive chairman, Optiemus Group said, 'Our collaboration with OnePlus marks a significant step in this journey, as we come together to co-create a future shaped by innovation and excellence. We specialise in transforming ideas into reality, and this partnership empowers us to manufacture high-quality IoT products. Together, we will continue to explore new frontiers and remain committed to playing a pivotal role in shaping the future of electronics manufacturing in India.'
As part of this tie-up, OnePlus has begun producing its IoT product line — including key offerings like true wireless stereo (TWS) earbuds and wireless neckbands — at Optiemus' Noida-based facility. This adds to its existing India-based smartphone manufacturing.
The partnership kicks off with the local production of the OnePlus Bullets Wireless Z3, a popular neckband device known for low latency, immersive bass, and clear audio quality.
As OnePlus' key manufacturing partner, Optiemus will help drive greater localisation of the bill of materials (BOM), improve cost efficiency, and strengthen supply chain resilience.
"Our partnership with OEL to manufacture IoT products locally reflects our strong commitment to Project Starlight. This collaboration is not just about technology—it's about empowering local communities, creating meaningful innovation, and bringing smarter, more connected experiences to our India community," said Robin Liu, CEO, OnePlus India.

ICICI sought to acquire HDFC, reveals chairman Deepak Parekh

Former HDFC chairman Deepak Parekh and ICICI Bank chief Chanda Kochhar MUMBAI: Former HDFC chairman Deepak Parekh, in a candid disclosure, said that then ICICI Bank chief Chanda Kochhar had proposed a merger between the two lenders - well before HDFC's eventual reverse merger with its banking subsidiary. During an interaction with Kochhar on her channel, Parekh said: "I remember you talking to me once. I remember it very clearly. It's never been talked about in public, but I'm willing to share it now. You said that ICICI started HDFC. 'Why don't you come back home?' That was your offer." Parekh said he declined the offer, saying "it won't be fair" or "proper with our name and the bank and all". Parekh said the eventual merger with HDFC Bank, completed in July 2023, was driven mainly by regulatory pressure. RBI had classified NBFCs like HDFC, then holding assets over Rs 5 lakh crore, as systemically important, breaching the Rs 50,000-crore threshold. "RBI supported us and they pushed us into it to some extent and they helped us," he said. However, he added that there were "no concessions, no relief, no time, nothing". Describing the day the merger concluded, Parekh called it "a sad day and a happy day". He said, "It's good for the institution. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like 180k traders turn to IC Markets for optimum CFD trading conditions IC Markets Sign Up Undo It's good for the country to have large banks. Look at how large Chinese banks are. We have to be bigger, larger in India." Parekh believes that Indian banks must grow through acquisitions to become stronger in future. On broader economic concerns, Parekh cited persistent uncertainty in supply chains, trade policy, and export conditions as top CEO concerns. Calling insurance the "least understood product", Parekh criticised "mis-selling by banks" driven by high upfront commissions.

EU bars Chinese firms from most medical device tenders

The European Union will bar Chinese companies from participating in EU public tenders for medical devices worth 60 billion euros or more ($68.9 billion) per year after concluding that EU companies are not given fair access in China. The measure announced by the European Commission on Friday is the first under the EU's International Procurement Instrument , which entered into force in 2022 and is designed to ensure reciprocal market access. The new restrictions are likely to increase tensions with Beijing inflamed by EU tariffs on China-built electric vehicles, Chinese measures against EU brandy and curbs on exports of rare earths that the EU wants resolved by an EU-China summit in July. The Commission said on Friday that it would exclude Chinese companies from EU government purchases above five million euros. An EU official said, guided by figures of Medtech Europe, the EU medical technology market was worth some 150 billion euros in 2023, with public procurement accounting for a 70% share. Contracts of over 5 million euros were only 4% of tenders, but made up some 60% by value, the official said. Successful bids will have to ensure they include no more than 50% of medical devices from China. If there are no alternative suppliers, the exclusion will not apply. EU members backed the plan earlier this month. The Commission has previously said it found "clear evidence" that China favoured Chinese devices for hospitals and its tender conditions led to abnormally low bids that profit-oriented companies could not offer. A Commission official said the ban would cover medical equipment including imaging equipment, artificial body parts and medical clothing. China's commerce ministry has previously described the proposed EU measures as "protectionist", urging the EU to be fair and transparent and for both sides to resolve differences through cooperation and dialogue. The Commission said China had not proposed any corrective action to remedy the situation, but an agreement was still possible.

Epsilon to challenge China's dominance in EV battery cell materials

May set up ₹9K cr plant for making 100K tonnes of graphite anode Surajeet Das Gupta New Delhi Listen to This Article Rare earth magnet is not the only area where the Chinese dominate the world. They also control two other crucial areas of electric vehicle (EV) battery cell — manufacturing of graphite anode, required for lithium-ion batteries, as well as cathode powder, to make lithium iron phosphate (LiFePO4 or LFP) battery. LFP batteries go into buses and commercial vehicles (CVs), and are considered safer. But an Indian company, Epsilon Advanced Materials, is trying to break into the market. It has finalised plans to set up a plant to manufacture these in Karnataka. To begin with, it is setting up a 100,000
