&nbsp;India's economy grew at 20.1% in Apr-June 2021, compared to the same period last year. How well is India's economy really doing? BOOM Explains.
 Economist and Founder, QuantEco Research, Shubhada Rao says that the harder the fall is, the stronger the bounce looks. Since the same time last year saw a complete freeze of economic activity, the corresponding period with more localised lockdowns was expected to do better. If we map sequentially, economic activity contracted by close to 17%, meaning January-March quarter was significantly better than the April-June quarter, despite a raging second wave in India. Even then it was uneven because manufacturing in India grew but service sector lagged behind.
 She also says that going forward we should look at better rates of recovery. we are seeing better pace at jobs growth, but some sectors may not see jobs being added as quickly as others.&nbsp;
 Watch BOOM's Govindraj Ethiraj chat with Shubhada Rao on whether the Indian economy has really grown, where our economy is headed and if India is truly better off than the pre-covid period.

With the Victor 125, TVS has previously had a reasonable hold in the 125cc motorcycle space. But soon after the Hosur-based brand pulled the plug on it sometime in 2007, the brand has been struggling to make a similar impact in the class. TVS did introduce the Phoenix 125 in 2012 as a spiritual successor of the Victor, but the motorcycle never struck the right cord with the audience and was eventually discontinued in 2017 due to poor sales performance. Determined to regain its market share, TVS has now re-examined the class and bought in the all-new Raider. Should its 125cc rivals beware?

'The whole world is going mad, so why should the Speed Triple be left behind', thought Triumph. And, so, with the Speed Triple 1200 RS, Triumph has created a motorcycle that's not a comfy bruiser anymore. Instead, the new Speed Triple 1200 RS is a full-on hyper-naked. It's fast, furious and razor-sharp. Not to mention, Triumph has loaded the new Speed Triple 1200 RS with everything imaginable. The question is, is it a step too far? Has the Speed Triple lost its ethos? Or has Triumph created a motorcycle that's the best of both worlds (Road &amp; Track)? We rode the all-new 2021 Speed Triple 1200 RS, compared it with its predecessor, to get you the answer. Watch the full review to find out!

India's cabinet on Wednesday approved the production linked incentive (PLI) scheme for the automobile sector aimed at boosting the production of electric and hydrogen fuel-powered vehicles and promoting the manufacture of drones. The government will give about ₹ 26,000 crore in incentives to auto companies and drone manufacturers over a five-year period. The incentives will range from 8% to 18% of the sales value of the vehicles or components. And they will be given to companies if they meet certain conditions such as a minimum investment over five years and 10% growth in sales each year. Carmakers would need to invest ₹ 2000 crore over the 5 year period, while auto parts companies need to invest ₹ 2500 crore over the same period, the government said. While automakers welcomed the PLI scheme, many also said that it wasn&rsquo;t enough to stimulate the auto sector that is going through downtime at the moment.
