Big private investment is likely in BOT roads; railways to continue work on existing projects
The Centre proposes to keep its focus on rapid infrastructure growth in the next financial year, with plans to push capex allocation for the ministries of road transport and highways, and railways in the upcoming budget by up to 10%, two persons aware of the development said.
The proposed modest increase comes against the backdrop of the government targeting a big increase in private investments into the highway sector in projects being awarded under the build-operate-transfer (BOT) toll model.
Also, the railways will continue implementing existing projects with a focus on capacity augmentation and safety measures that will not require any additional capital. Meanwhile, the spending on manufacturing new generation trains such as Vande Bharat would be made in a staggered manner that reduces the pressure on capex in a particular year.

Investors expect AI use to soar. That's not happening
An uncertain outlook for interest rates. Businesses may be holding off on investment until the fog clears. In addition, history suggests that technology tends to spread in fits and starts. Consider use of the computer within American households, where the speed of adoption slowed in the late 1980s. This was a mere blip before the 1990s, when they invaded American homes.

Can I claim TDS refund despite missing return filing deadline?
I am an NRI living in Dubai and have investments in Indian listed stocks. One of the companies I invested in, did a buyback in March, on which Tax Deducted at Source (TDS) was deducted. At that time, I was advised by a friend that I could claim a refund of TDS at the time of filing my tax return due to the benefits of the Double Taxation Avoidance Agreement (DTAA).
