The article highlights how leadership changes in India's corporate sector have driven significant stock surges, with 75% of companies showing strong shareholder returns post-CEO transitions. Examples include Persistent Systems, Schneider Electric, and Angel One, whose stocks rose 850%, 840%, and 645% respectively after new leadership.

The Coast Guard district headquarters in Jagatsinghpur's Paradip organized a two-day workshop on marine pollution response, bringing together stakeholders including Paradip Port Authority, Dhamra Port, Gopalpur Port, and oil companies BPCL, HPCL, and IOCL.

The Nifty Oil & Gas index rose 1% on Tuesday as crude oil prices fell following the Israel-Iran ceasefire, driving gains in BPCL, HPCL, and IOCL shares. Brent crude prices dropped to below $70 per barrel, easing pressure on India's economy and rupee.

Rising crude oil prices, driven by Middle East tensions, may negatively impact Indian stocks but benefit upstream oil companies like ONGC and Oil India. The removal of a windfall tax on ONGC and Oil India, along with the expansion of Oil India's Numaligarh Refinery, could boost their earnings. JM Financial maintains 'buy' ratings on ONGC and Oil India but 'sell'/'hold' ratings on integrated oil marketing companies (OMCs) due to structural risks.

US tariffs on footwear imports are likely to drive global brands like Nike, Adidas, and Puma to increase manufacturing in India, which benefits from lower tariffs and competitive wages. The shift is expected to accelerate India's growth as a major production hub for global brands. Under the new tariff structure, India's non-leather footwear exports to the US are expected to face tariffs around 36%, compared to Vietnam's potential tariffs of 60%. This shift is expected to benefit Indian states like Tamil Nadu, where Taiwanese contract manufacturers have already set up facilities. The tariffs are also expected to push brands to cut production costs, further boosting investments in India.
