Closing Bell!Nagaraj Shetti suggests Asahi India Glass, Swiggy shares to buy in the short term; do you own?
Stock market today: Indian stock markets were showing signs of weakness on Thursday, as investors remained wary of the potential for a US military strike and the unclear nature of Iran's reaction.

Indian Hockey Players To Get A Monthly Stipend From Sports Ministry
Last Updated: Indian hockey players selected for national camps will receive a Rs 25,000 monthly allowance. The decision, costing Rs 20 lakh per month, was approved by the sports ministry. For the first time, Indian hockey players selected for the men's and women's national camps will receive a Rs 25,000 monthly out-of-pocket allowance, a decision sanctioned by the sports ministry after consistent requests from the sport's governing body. Eighty players (40 men and 40 women) are set to benefit from this allowance, which is extended to athletes in the developmental group of the Target Olympic Podium Scheme. The decision was made during the Mission Olympic Cell's monthly meeting on Thursday. This allowance will cost the government Rs 20 lakh per month, while core group athletes receive Rs 50,000 per month. 'The allowance was being requested by Hockey India for some time, and we have decided to accept the demand. The players have performed reasonably well, and it is on merit," Sports Minister Mansukh Mandaviya informed reporters in an informal interaction. Hockey India will need to submit a list of players every month to facilitate the disbursement of funds. 'The list will consider form and fitness, and names might change depending on these factors," a sports ministry source explained. Currently, hockey players earn salaries from their respective departments and organisations, although a proposal for a graded contract system by Hockey India has been under consideration for the past few years. Their additional source of income comes from prize money for strong international performances in events like the Olympics and the Asian Games. The men's team has secured two consecutive bronze medals in the 2021 Tokyo Olympics and the subsequent Paris Games last year. The women's team finished fourth in Tokyo but did not qualify for the Paris event. Both teams are currently competing in the FIH Pro League's European leg, where the results have not been particularly encouraging so far. The MOC also approved financial proposals amounting to Rs 4.28 crore during the meeting. A significant portion of the funds — Rs 1.38 crore — will be allocated to tennis players such as Saketh Myneni, Jeevan Nedunchezhiyan, and three women players. 'Several proposals for assistance from para-athletes were also approved. Additionally, a few additions were made to the TOPS developmental group. The core group remains unchanged for now," a Sports Authority of India (SAI) official stated. The ministry has also decided to enhance its talent identification process with an app that will allow talented youngsters to upload their performances for evaluation by regional talent identification panels of the SAI. 'If found promising at first glance, the youngster will be invited to Khelo India Regional Centres where their potential will be assessed. This will broaden our talent identification mechanism, which is currently limited to age group competitions," Mandaviya said. 'It will ensure that we can reach the remotest corners of the country to find promising athletes. This is all part of the National Sports Repository System," he added. With PTI inputs.

India Weighs Disruption Scenarios In Strait Of Hormuz, Prepares Backup Plans
Last Updated: Commerce Secretary meets officials and exporters as Iran Israel conflict threatens global oil chokepoint. The government is well prepared as far as the possibility of the closure of the critical trade route of Strait of Hormuz is concerned. This narrow stretch of sea might seem far from India but what happens there can directly impact your fuel bill, business and even stock market investments. The Strait of Hormuz is located between Iran to the north and Oman and the United Arab Emirates (UAE) to the south. It connects the Persian Gulf to the Gulf of Oman and then to the Arabian Sea. In view of the fact that trade could be affected or the stakeholders and exporters may have to look for new routes which need not be cost effective the commerce ministry held a meeting with the stakeholders. Sources say that the Commerce Secretary Sunil Barthwal held a meeting with concerned stakeholders and departments to discuss the impact of the Iran Israel conflict on India's trade and the actions needed to normalise it. The participants were informed that the situation in the Strait of Hormuz is at present stable, but nothing was being left to chance. The ship reporting system has been put in place to monitor any incidents. The freight and insurance rates are also being closely monitored. Apart from this the Commerce Secretary also stressed on the need to assess the evolving situation and its impact on Indian EXIM trade. He also highlighted the importance of exploring all possible alternatives in response to the situation. Sources said that India is also actively exploring alternative crude supply routes beyond the Persian Gulf to avoid short term disruptions if geopolitical tensions worsen. If implemented these decisions could impact major fuel importing nations from Singapore to the US. India is one of the largest exporters of petroleum products. In a worst-case scenario involving the closure of Hormuz government sources said these exports could be curtailed to maintain India's internal reserves and also to ensure we don't fall short of oil supplies. The government at the meeting today was optimistic of the fact that in the last 50 years despite crisis the Strait has never closed down. And with China using this route in a big way and extensively Iran may not be keen to close the Strait. But the Commerce Ministry is taking no chances and is closely monitoring the situation.

‘Reality Hit Differently': Indian-Origin Man In US Shares Snippet Of Life After College
Last Updated: Chintamneedi, who earned a BA in Strategic and Corporate Communications from Chapman University, shared a heartfelt message on LinkedIn Indian-origin Gaurav Chintamneedi, who works as an Operations Leader at Amazon in the US, has struck a chord with many on LinkedIn after candidly sharing his struggles transitioning from university to the corporate world. Chintamneedi, who earned a BA in Strategic and Corporate Communications from Chapman University, posted a heartfelt message titled, 'You Didn't Peak in College; the Transition Is Difficult and That's Ok." The post quickly went viral on the platform. He began by recalling his expectations: 'When I first arrived in the DMV, I imagined living the dream early-20s life—like the ones we see on TV or romanticize on social media. I pictured myself working a 9–5, grabbing drinks with coworkers after work, striking up conversations with strangers on the metro who'd eventually become close friends. I thought weekends would be filled with brunches, coffee shop side projects, and late-night online courses to build new skills." But reality was far different. Gaurav shared that he routinely worked 50–60 hours a week, sometimes waking as early as 3 am for 'opening shifts." Weekends were consumed by overtime, and his few rare days off were spent recuperating. 'I found myself lying in bed doom‑scrolling on Instagram, drained from six consecutive days of work… Making new connections in a new city wasn't as easy as I'd hoped. I even started to wonder: Did I peak in college?" Rather than complain, Gaurav offered perspective and solidarity. 'This post isn't a complaint—it's an acknowledgment. Because I know that struggling with this transition is quite normal." He admitted he still misses college and sometimes scrolls through old photos. But as he reached the one‑year mark post‑graduation, he began to reframe the experience: 'Nope, although I feel it, this year hasn't been wasted time. It's been a year of progress that encompasses tenacity, self‑realisation and redefining purpose… Adjusting to a new society and lifestyle takes time. At the end of the day, it's a life skill that you're now equipped with for the future." Gaurav also offered three practical 'mindset shifts" to help recent graduates: Accept that college is over —and that's okay. That lifestyle isn't coming back, but that doesn't mean better days aren't ahead. Life can still be fulfilling, exciting, and full of growth. Gratitude is everything. Practice gratitude daily. It keeps you grounded and reminds you of the good around—even on the hardest days. Progress is Progress. Just because the past year hasn't been as exciting as the previous four years of university, doesn't mean you peaked in college. Adjusting takes time, and even though life has become more routine-like, you've made tons of progress just by sticking it through this past year. The response to Gaurav's post has been overwhelmingly positive. One user praised his advice, writing: 'Love the introspection and advice G! As you've said, the 20's is undoubtedly a challenging time for many of us.… You've truly grown so much this past year." 'Thank you for posting this! This was so encouraging, especially since I just graduated a few weeks ago!" another user wrote.
