UPI is about to get a price tag.

From 15 October, merchants will pay a 0.4% MDR on UPI payments above ₹2,000 while person-to-person payments remain free.

So, a ₹6,000 UPI payment = ₹24 charge for the merchant.

But here’s the real question: Will merchants absorb the cost, or will it eventually reach customers?

Watch the full reel to understand what this could mean for UPI users.

Should you really pause your SIP when the Fed changes rates?

We looked at 37 Fed rate hikes and tracked what happened to the Nifty after each one.

The takeaway? Short-term volatility was common. But over time, the impact often faded.

And here’s where it gets interesting: in our ₹10,000 SIP example, pausing investments for just one year left the investor ~₹82,000 behind after five years.

Because sometimes, the bigger risk isn’t market volatility it’s reacting to it.

Staying invested can matter more than reacting to every headline.

India’s IPO market has come a long way. 📈

Back in 2016, India saw 94 IPOs in a year. By 2024, that number had climbed to 268.

There were a few bumps along the way, IPO activity fell sharply to just 43 in 2020. But the market bounced back quickly, with 122 IPOs in 2021, 149 in 2022 and 240 in 2023.

And the momentum hasn’t really gone away.

220 IPOs came in 2025, and 2026 has already seen 165 IPOs till August.

So, what does this tell us?

More Indian companies are choosing the public markets to raise money, and investors are getting more opportunities to participate in their growth.

But there’s another side to this boom.

More IPOs also mean more choices and not every IPO is worth subscribing to.

The real challenge for investors is no longer just finding the next IPO. It’s figuring out which ones are actually worth paying attention to.

Pepsi + Alcohol?

Varun Beverages is entering the alcobev game.

Varun Beverages is reportedly exploring alcoholic ready-to-drink (RTD) beverages, combining familiar soft-drink flavours with alcohol.

The idea is simple: pre-mixed, ready-to-drink beverages that consumers can buy and consume without separately mixing alcohol and a soft drink.

For VBL, this could open up an entirely new beverage category beyond its traditional PepsiCo portfolio.

And with India’s RTD alcohol market gaining momentum, this move could be a big bet on changing drinking preferences.

From bottling Pepsi to bottling the next generation of alcoholic drinks VBL is entering a very different game.

The global defence race is no longer just about how much countries spend it’s about who builds what comes next.

India’s defence industry is entering a major growth phase.

Defence production hit a record ₹1.78 lakh crore in FY26, up 15.6% YoY.

Defence exports surged 62.7% YoY to ₹38,424 crore.

Private players contributed 45% of India’s defence exports, signalling a bigger role for industry.

India now exports defence products to 80+ countries.

The government is targeting ₹3 lakh crore defence production by 2029.

Defence R&D allocation has reached ₹29,100 crore for FY27 creating room for next-gen technologies.

Drones, missiles, electronics, aerospace and AI are emerging as key areas of opportunity.

The real investment story could therefore lie beyond defence budgets in the companies building the technology and systems behind them.

For India, rising defence spending could translate into manufacturing, exports, innovation and private-sector opportunities.

So the bigger question for investors is: Which Indian companies will benefit as the defence ecosystem expands?

China’s manufacturing dominance is starting to create a problem of its own.

China now accounts for roughly 30% of global manufacturing and that share is expected to rise to around 45% by 2030. But the bigger issue isn’t just how much China produces it’s whether the world can absorb all of it.

With a trade surplus of nearly $1.2 trillion, China is exporting far more than it imports. At the same time, around 30% of industrial firms are estimated to be loss-making, pointing to intense competition, falling prices and excess capacity across several industries.

This is what makes China’s overcapacity problem important for global markets.

When domestic demand cannot absorb production, manufacturers look overseas. That can mean cheaper exports, pricing pressure on global competitors and tougher conditions for companies in countries trying to build their own manufacturing base.

For India, this creates both risk and opportunity.

Indian manufacturers could face greater competition from cheaper Chinese goods. But sectors where global companies are diversifying supply chains away from China could also benefit as the China+1 strategy gains momentum.

The real question isn’t whether China can keep producing more.

It’s who will absorb that production and which countries and companies will win or lose because of it?
