With the 75th India Independence day, India developed the first aircraft carrier in house with help from Cochin Shipyard. That’s huge in itself with India having to import aircraft carriers usually from Russia. India along with several players are getting in full force to achieve its oil independence by concentrating more on EVs. Ola is coming up with new scooter that is fully electric and is ready to launch on the 15th of August. India is achieving its goal to fully vaccinate its population and is on its way to success. When India needed oxygen cylinders several companies especially chemical companies came forward to supply oxygen cylinders in the second wave. The delta variant is affecting people and most of them are recovered within 15 days of quarantine. The second wave is almost over and people are back to work with limited restrictions. All this and more are signs of recovery, positivity and growth and we are yet to see another economic upside in the time to come.

Recently there have been a large number of chemical companies which went public including the recent ChemPlast Sanmar, Clean Science, Tatva Chintan, Glenmark Life Science and India Pesticides. All these companies have opened higher than their IPO price. Hopefully, the growth is sustainable and investors reap the benefits of the IPO.
