India’s economy continues to make headlines, and much of the momentum is being attributed to the policies and reforms under Prime Minister Narendra Modi. What some analysts are informally calling “Modi’s Law of Growth” reflects a mix of sustained GDP expansion, bold tax reforms, and resilience in the face of global uncertainties. Let’s break down the key drivers of this growth story and the stocks currently in focus. India’s Growth Under Modi’s Law GDP Resilience India’s GDP surged 7.8% in Q1 FY2025–26 , the highest in five quarters.

The GST Council is set to finalize these changes in e...

On September 1, 2025, Bharat Heavy Electricals Limited ( BHEL ) announced that its joint venture with Siemens AG Germany , Powerplant Performance Improvement Pvt. Ltd. ( PPIL ), has been officially dissolved following an order from the National Company Law Tribunal ( NCLT ). The dissolution took effect on August 29, 2025. For investors, the key question is whether this is good or bad news.
