Setting up a factory in Kerala during the 90s was industrial suicide.

Most factories were shut down by union strikes.

But one Parachute oil factory ran 30 years without a single disruption.

The secret? A genius HR idea copied from your school’s sports day.

Here’s how it worked:

The Indian FMCG market was cutthroat.
Parachute coconut oil was their golden child.
But transporting copra from Kerala to Mumbai was bleeding the company dry.

Every kilo of copra travelled 1,400 km.

India and China are evolving as friends?

From fertiliser deals to rare earths and tunnel boring machines, a silent alliance is being built.

Reminder:

> China controls 87% of rare-earth exports globally
> India is the world’s 2nd largest fertilizer consumer
> Infra spending in India will hit ₹11.1 lakh crore this year

If this friendship strengthens, it could shift global trade and reshape the Indian stock market forever.

Here’s how it could play out, and why it might be the most under-reported story of this decade:

Tunnel boring machines for massive infra projects
Rare-earth elements that power EVs, satellites and iPhones
Fertilizers for agricultural lifeline

An Asia-led trade ecosystem that doesn’t depend on the West.

And that’s exactly what the U.S. doesn’t want.

India has 5x more two-wheelers than cars.
The US has 33x more cars than two-wheelers.

But behind these numbers lies the story of class, economy, aspiration and the future of India’s mobility.

Let’s break it down.

There are 23 crore two-wheelers on the road
Now compare that to cars: only 4 crore in total.

That means for every car in India, there are nearly 6 two-wheelers.

Meanwhile, in the US
29 crore cars, only 86 lakh two-wheelers.
For every two-wheeler, there are 33 cars.

From controlling Indus water to making jet engines, from GST 2.0 to 1 crore jobs, PM Modi made these key announcements that could rewrite India’s future.

It is a master plan for India’s water, jobs, defence, economy & global power.

Here’s the decoded thread

Pakistan gets the rest, thanks to a 1960 treaty.

PM Modi just announced: India’s share will now be used only for Indian farmers.

India just made history by rejecting The Hague’s Permanent Court of Arbitration verdict on the Indus Waters Treaty.

For the first time since 1960, New Delhi has openly refused to comply with an international ruling on river sharing with Pakistan.

And this isn’t just a water story—it’s a geopolitical earthquake.

Bookmark and retweet this thread to revisit it later In 1960, India and Pakistan signed the Indus Waters Treaty, brokered by the World Bank.
It split the rivers:
Eastern rivers (Ravi, Beas, Sutlej) → India

Western rivers (Indus, Jhelum, Chenab) → Pakistan

The catch?
India could use the western rivers for non-consumptive purposes but couldn’t block or divert their flow.

For decades, it was hailed as “the most successful water treaty in history.”
Until now.

Let’s begin. In the 1970s, Rajkot’s Prabhat Talkies was known for two things:

● B-grade movies
● Homemade wafers served in the canteen

That canteen was run by three brothers Chandubhai, Bhikhubhai, and Kanubhai Virani.

Sons of a farmer.
No business background.

Just one talent: they could fry wafers better than anyone in the city.

In 2004, the government made just ₹900 Cr from the stock markets.

Adani is spending ₹62,000 Cr + to buy bankrupt companies.

No, that’s not a mistake.
Every acquisition (from cement to power to ports) has one thing in common: the company was nearly dead.

But why is Adani buying broken businesses?

This is the ruthless, strategic empire play that no one is talking about.

Let’s break it down: In the last 24 months, Adani Group has bought over 15 struggling companies.

On the surface, these were distressed, bankrupt or NCLT-bound assets—liabilities that most wouldn’t touch.

But Adani wasn’t scared.

He was strategically hunting value in places others ran from.

Why?

Adani is spending ₹12,000 Cr to buy Jaiprakash Associates.

This isn’t just another acquisition.

It’s the signal that Adani’s back in expansion mode after the Hindenburg hit.
