INDIA NEWS | Tue, 9 Dec 2025, 11:55PM IST New Delhi: Many companies are choosing to postpone in-person meetings and conferences and are avoiding non-essential travel this week amid the uncertainty associated with travel, following mass cancellation of flights by IndiGo, the country's largest airline.Even as IndiGo chief executive Peter Elbers said operations were "fully stabilised" and that the carrier operated more than 1,800 flights on Tuesday, companies are taking a cautious approach. Hospitality industry insiders said cancellations were coming in, but they expect the crisis to cause only a temporary blip in performance in a usually busy quarter."Many of the outstation travel now stands cancelled across airlines, both on account of flight unavailability and high fares," said a partner at a consulting firm who did not wish to reveal his identity. "It gives a feeling of being back to Covid days, where travel was restricted or uncertain, for different reasons. We are hoping for this to change in one week or so," he said .Flight cancellations have created a lot of disruption, and many companies are choosing to move meetings online or delay non-essential travel, said Aditya Mishra, chief executive at CIEL HR, a staffing and recruitment services firm."Organisations are being careful about sending employees out of their base location. At our end too, we're putting employee comfort first, encouraging virtual meetings and approving only important trips," said Mishra, adding that the idea is to avoid inconvenience and optimise costs while keeping business moving smoothly. The company has advised employees and its travel desk to keep longer buffer times in their itinerary to accommodate potential disruptions in travel.Sarovar Hotels is accounting for an around 5% drop in revenue in its forecast for the ongoing quarter due to the crisis, said CEO Jatin Khanna. "Almost 1,600 room nights were cancelled last week across our portfolio due to flight cancellations, but we were also able to pick about 500 room nights with extensions," he said. "For now, we look pretty much in line in terms of occupancies compared to last year, but we are not able to grow the room rates as expected," he added.Chander K Baljee, MD, Royal Orchid Hotels, said there is a lot of uncertainty associated with travel. "I was planning to travel this month, but I have cancelled my trip as I don't want to get stuck at airports because of potential delays," he said.For full report, go to www.economictimes.com

INDIA NEWS | Tue, 9 Dec 2025, 11:21PM IST Unilever chief executive Fernando Fernandez said the consumer goods company wants its Indian unit, Hindustan Unilever, to grow at least in line with India's GDP after a period of mid-single-digit expansion, as the country's demand outlook has recovered after years of inflation-driven pressure."The government in India has taken very relevant measures lately. So, GST reduction, personal income tax reduction, interest rate reduction-when the government does something like this, it's because of things in the economy in which Indian consumption was affected significantly by three years for double-digit food inflation," he said at a JP Morgan fireside chat in London Tuesday.HUL, India's biggest consumer goods firm, has brought in a fresh leadership team, including senior external hires like its chief financial officer from Hero MotoCorp and food head from Britannia, under new CEO Priya Nair."They have the mission of really putting our volume growth in a similar level to the one of GDP growth," said Fernando, adding that with food inflation easing and GDP expanding 8.2% last quarter, "the opportunities in India are massive".Fernandez, who last month visited India on his first trip to the country after becoming the CEO in March, said India gives Unilever a multilevel growth landscape, with 60 million consumers with income per capita similar to France, about 700 million comparable to Southeast Asia and another 700 million aligned with developing African markets."I was recently in central India, four states there, 500 million people. GDP growth 10%...," he said, adding: "These people aspire to Dove, to Vaseline, to Pond's. Our brands are perfectly suited to really take advantage of what will be an explosion of wealth expansion."India accounts for 14% of Unilever's revenue, with only the US accounting for a larger share at 21%. Unilever said hitting 4% volume growth in both markets can help reach its core global target for 2% volume expansion at an overall level.HUL reported a 2% increase in sales for the quarter through September, although volume growth, which measures the number of products people put into their shopping carts, remained flat.Over the past few years, analysts have raised concerns about risks to HUL's volume growth due to global and local rivals pushing harder into India's beauty and home-care categories. However, Unilever downplayed fears of structural share loss, and said the company's breadth across price tiers and categories remained unmatched.

INDIA NEWS | Tue, 9 Dec 2025, 10:46PM IST Belgium's supreme court -- the Court of Cassation -- on Tuesday rejected the appeal of fugitive diamond trader Mehul Choksi challenging the extradition request of India in connection with the Rs 13000-crore alleged bank fraud in Punjab National Bank, authorities in that country said. Choksi, who escaped to Antigua and Barbuda in January 2018, days before the scam was detected, was spotted in Belgium, where he had purportedly sought treatment. India had sent an extradition request to Belgium on August 27, 2024, based on arrest warrants issued by a special court in Mumbai. Responding to PTI, Spokesperson for Court of Cassation, Advocaat-generaal Henri Vanderlinden, said, "The Court of Cassation rejected the appeal. So, the decision of the Court of Appeal stands." The process of his extradition will begin now, officials said. The Antwerp Court of Appeal had upheld India's request for Choksi's extradition while terming it "enforceable". A four-member indictment chamber at the Court of Appeals in Antwerp did not find any infirmity in the orders issued by the pre-trial chamber of the district court on November 29, 2024, terming the arrest warrants issued by the Mumbai special court in May 2018 and June 2021 as "enforceable", allowing Choksi's extradition. The Court of Appeals had ruled that Choksi, the main accused in a Rs-13,000 crore PNB scam, faces "no risk" of being denied a fair trial or subjected to ill-treatment if he is extradited to India. The Court of Cassation only checks the decision of the court of appeal "on legal aspects" such as whether the court of appeal correctly applied the legal dispositions, and whether they follow the right procedure, Vanderlinden had said in response to PTI questions last month. "So, new facts or evidence cannot be placed," he had said. "The proceedings are, in essence, a written one. As a rule, all cases are heard. If the court refuses to admit the appeal, it will be on legal grounds, for example, the person who filed the complaint did not have the legal competence to do so," Vanderlinden had explained. Of the total scam amount, Choksi alone has siphoned off Rs 6,400 crore, the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) has alleged in its chargesheet. The public prosecutor at the Court of First Instance in Antwerp, Division Turnhout, initiated an action on November 25, 2024, seeking the enforcement of arrest warrants issued by the Mumbai court. The pre-trial chamber of the Antwerp District Court, Turnhout Division, in its order dated November 29, 2024, held that the arrest warrants against Choksi issued by the Mumbai court were enforceable, except for the order related to "causing the disappearance of evidence of the crime". When Choksi appealed against this verdict in the Antwerp Court of Appeals, it rejected his claims that he personally faces a real, present and serious risk of being subjected to flagrant denial of justice, torture or inhuman and degrading treatment in India. India has given a number of assurances to Belgium about Choksi's safety, the charges that he would face during trial in India, prison arrangements, human rights and medical needs. The Court of Appeals had ruled that 66-year-old Choksi faces "no risk" of being denied a fair trial or subjected to ill-treatment if he is extradited to India. Dismissing the appeal filed by Choksi against the district court, the Court of Appeals held that the businessman failed to provide "concretely plausible" evidence of a "genuine risk" of torture or denial of justice. It held that the documents Choksi submitted do not substantiate his claims that he is the subject of a political trial.The order was a strong validation of India's case seeking his extradition.

INDIA BUSINESS | Tue, 9 Dec 2025, 10:17PM IST Reserve Bank Governor Sanjay Malhotra on Tuesday met the MD and CEO of public sector banks and select private sector banks here and urged them to pass on the rate cut to support sustainable growth. Since February 2025, the RBI has trimmed the key policy rate by 125 basis points to 5.25 per cent to support growth. India recorded an 8 per cent GDP growth in the first half of the current financial year. During the meeting, the RBI Governor observed that while there has been steady improvement in the health and operations of the banking sector in 2025, banks must avoid complacency and remain vigilant in a dynamic environment, the central bank said in a statement. He noted that the 125 basis points easing, combined with greater use of technology, should translate into lower intermediation costs and higher efficiency, thereby supporting sustainable growth and deeper financial inclusion, it said.
