Gold prices slip ₹150, silver declines ₹5,000 amid weak global cues
Gold prices slipped Rs 150 to Rs 1,50,650 per 10 grams in the national capital on Monday, and silver dropped Rs 5,000, as a sluggish global trend and a firm US dollar prompted traders to trim positions in precious metals. The precious metal of 99.9 per cent purity had closed at Rs 1,50,800 per 10 grams in the preceding session. Silver snapped its four-day rally, declining Rs 5,000 to Rs 2,40,000 per kilogram (inclusive of all taxes) from Friday's closing level of Rs 2,45,000 per kg, according to local dealers.

Capital markets emerging as key avenue for household savings: Sebi chief
Capital markets are increasingly emerging as a core avenue for household savings and wealth creation in India, reflecting a structural shift in how Indians are investing and participating in the country's growth story, SEBI Chairperson Tuhin Kanta Pandey said on Monday. "Capital markets are increasingly becoming a core avenue for household savings and wealth creation," Pandey said at the ICICI Securities India Investor Conference 2026. On the Portfolio Management Services (PMS) regulations, the SEBI chief indicated that extensive deliberations are underway and a consultation paper will be released soon.

Meesho partners with BSE to drive IPO readiness for MSMEs, digital sellers
E-commerce platform Meesho has partnered with the BSE to launch a new initiative aimed at helping micro, small and medium enterprises (MSMEs) and digital businesses transition into publicly-listed companies. The initiative, named 'Project Shikhar', was formalised through a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) and aims to facilitate the listing of high-performing independent e-commerce sellers on the BSE SME platform, addressing their need for growth capital. BSE Managing Director and CEO Sundararaman Ramamurthy said the exchange pioneered the SME platform to give dynamic, job-creating businesses a direct route to capital markets. "Over the years, the BSE SME platform has enabled hundreds of MSMEs to list, raise growth capital and strengthen governance standards. This partnership with Meesho extends that ecosystem to digital-first entrepreneurs, helping e-commerce sellers become public companies," Ramamurthy said. A substantial segment of India's retail commerce operates in the informa
Primary market to pick up as CMR Green, Hexagon Nutrition to launch IPOs
The primary market will see some activity next week, with two companies - CMR Green Technologies and Hexagon Nutrition - slated to launch their initial public offerings (IPOs) collectively valued at nearly Rs 770 crore. As both the issues are entirely offer for sale (OFS), the companies will not receive any proceeds from the public offerings, with the entire amount going to the selling shareholders. The upcoming offerings come at a time when the primary market has witnessed subdued activity amid persistent market volatility and global uncertainties. Although several companies have received regulatory clearances in recent weeks, many have deferred their listing plans due to uncertain market conditions. So far in 2026, around 20 companies, including Fractal Analytics, Shadowfax Technologies and Bharat Coking Coal, have tapped the capital markets through main-board initial public offerings. The IPO of CMR Green Technologies, a non-ferrous metal recycler, will open for public subscript

The Indian rupee recovered well in opening trades on Thursday as global investors noted a slight pullback in crude oil prices over the recent comments on a potential final stage of the US-Iran conflict. INR opened at Rs 96.25 per dollar and hit a high of 96.05 so far during the day. Yesterday, the counter ended near the next critical level of 96.86, a new historic low.
