What if there was a GIS map overlayed with economic activity retrieved from retail banking instruments like POS machine & atm & UPI almost real time if not real-time etc etc..

Any drop or increase in economic beyond a range will be displayed on the map, which in turn will show long term trends of economic activity in a particular street or village or town or city.

The Common Facility Center CFC to be set up at Shendra industrial estate for the proposed Deogiri Electronics Cluster is nearing completion and will literally pick up speed from March next year. The cluster will boost the electronics industry in Aurangabad, local entrepreneurs said. New startups, vendors, and small entrepreneurs in the electronics manufacturing sector face major challenges in terms of finances, space, expensive machinery, research and development and testing.

The first phase of the CFC, set up by 28 entrepreneurs at Shendra industrial estate, started in 2017. The project was pursued through the Chamber of Marathwada Industries and Agriculture CMIA. The building of this centre is now ready and soon various machinery will also be available here. Giving more information, DEC chairman Suresh Todkar said electronics companies in Aurangabad needed a CFC to develop and research new products. The centre will be of great benefit to the electronics industry. This facility will stop the dependency of entrepreneurs on other cities for product research and testing. The cluster will help companies working in the electronics sector to create world-class products. The machinery in this facility will be of great help as there will be reduction in the production costs and will provide technical guidance on the electronics industry. The board of directors of DEC plan to start this center at full capacity from March 2022.

The Tata Motors recorded 30,185 unit sales in July 2021 as against 24,110 units during the same period last year with a YoY volume surge of 101 per cent. The Tata Motors has released a statement announcing its sales numbers for the month of July 2021. The brand’s domestic and international market sales stood at 54,119 units as against 27,711 units during the same period last year with a healthy Year-on-Year sales growth of 95.29 per cent. The domestic volumes contributed significantly to the overall total as ever.

The In July 2021, the homegrown passenger vehicle maker registered 51,981 unit sales as against 27,024 units during the corresponding month in 2020 with an appreciable 92 per cent surge in volumes. However, the volumes endured in June 2020 are largely unrepresentative for comparison as the industry took a big toll courtesy of the health crisis. The encouraging sign is that Tata Motors’ Month-on-Month sales stood at 19 per cent as 43,704 units were recorded. In the commercial vehicle space, the domestic volumes stood at 21,796 units and the company shipped 2,052 units of CVs in the month of July 2021. In the passenger car segment, Tata posted total sales of 30,185 units as against 24,110 units during the same period last year.

The This led to a 25.19 per cent increase in sales volumes on a Month-on-Month basis while on a YoY basis, the volume growth stood at 101 per cent as 15,012 units were recorded in July 2020. Earlier this year, Tata introduced the seven-seater Safari and through the year we have seen the debut of new Dark Edition variants of the Nexon, Nexon EV and Altroz. The brand is gearing up to launch the facelifted Tiago NRG next in the domestic market on August 4 and is powered by a BSVI compliant 1.2-litre petrol engine. We do expect a five-speed manual and an AMT will be offered. The HBX concept based micro SUV dubbed the Hornbill could go on sale later this year based on the ALFA Agile Light Flexible Advanced platform.

The It will compete against the Mahindra KUV NXT, the Maruti Suzuki Ignis and the upcoming Hyundai Casper. The micro SUV will likely be powered by a 1.2-litre petrol engine used in the Tiago, Tigor and Altroz and the turbocharged version of the same mill could also be on offer in the top-end variants.
