China has intensified its crackdown on cryptocurrency shutting down many crypto mining sites and also instructing Alipay and banks not involve crypto ope

China has intensified its crackdown on cryptocurrencies&nbsp;as the country's central&nbsp;bank urged banks and Alipay, the largest mobile payment platform in China with 1.3 billion users to refrain from crypto&nbsp;transactions.
The Chinese authorities recently directed govt-owned power companies to immediately stop power supply to crypto mining. More than 90% of China&rsquo;s bitcoin mining capacity is estimated to be shut down due to this, as per some reports. Many miners had moved to the Sichuan&nbsp;province as it is very rich in hydropower&nbsp;making mining more eco-friendly.&nbsp; Bitcoin&nbsp;prices dropped as this created panic among investors since China&nbsp;hosts&nbsp;around 70% of the world's&nbsp;Bitcoin&nbsp;mining capacity, called the hash rate, which fell to a six-month low.
As some experts pointed out that in a&nbsp;longer term&nbsp;most see the hash rate&nbsp;moving out of China as positive, but in the near term it may have already resulted in inventory sales. Thus putting pressure on Bitcoin's&nbsp;price.

Maruti Suzuki will hike the prices of its cars in the July-September quarter due to an increase in the input costs, the country's largest automobile manufacturer said in a regulatory filing on Monday.&nbsp;

Globally steel prices are up from $500/tonne in September to $1500/tonne now adding pressure on margins in a low demand environment for automakers. Meanwhile even the price of plastic has gone up by 60%-80%.&nbsp;

As SEBI&nbsp;asks for an Independent valuation of the Rs 4000 cr PNB&nbsp;Housing-Carlye&nbsp;deal putting the deal on hold. Veteran investor Samir&nbsp;Arora&nbsp;backs the shareholder rights and calls out the concerns in corporate governance in the mega deal.&nbsp; Samir&nbsp;Arora&nbsp;tweeted saying "&nbsp;Control transaction at a discount to market price where the acquirer pays 75% of the amount after 18 months - now that is a deal and shows how PE investors help worsen corporate governance if no oversight." He goes on to make the case for the share valuation to be assessed as Arora&nbsp;says "&nbsp;"A preferential issue of shares and warrants" and a "preferential issue of shares and warrants that also gives controlling interest" are not one and the same thing." PNB&nbsp;Housing-Carlye&nbsp;deal is set to offer shares to&nbsp; the 'acquirer' Carlyle for Rs 390/share vs the current market-price of over Rs 700/share or the share price of Rs 500/share at the time the deal was announced.&nbsp;

Indian banks may soon start leveraging blockchain technology for Letter of Credit (LC), GST invoices and e-way bills. Along with reduced processing time

Blockchain&nbsp;finds more backers in the Indian banks community with leading banks&nbsp;like ICICI, HDFC&nbsp;Bank and SBI&nbsp;along with 12 others have&nbsp; come together to form a company Indian Banks&rsquo; Blockchain Infrastructure Co Pvt Ltd (IBBIC) with each having equal shareholding.&nbsp; The newly formed blockchain&nbsp;company will&nbsp;widen the blockchain application to the processing of Letters of Credit (LCs/LoCs), GST invoices, and e-way bills. Along with reduced processing time and paperwork elimination&nbsp;due to&nbsp;blockchain&nbsp;technology, banks are expected to even prevent frauds like multiple issuances of LCs&nbsp;on a single&nbsp;invoice. This will also be a big boost to medium and small-scale enterprises (MSMEs) as tokenisation would make approvals, disbursements and settlements faster. Operation and disbursements&nbsp;which used to take four to five days, can be done in four hours, as some reports suggest
The project is expected to use Infosys&rsquo; Finacle Connect, a blockchain-based platform that enables digitisation and automation of trade-related finance processes.
