tensions, foreign fund outflows dragged the equity markets lower on Tuesday. A
day after closing at their lowest levels in a week's time, key Indian equity
indices bounced back to trade with substantial gains during the mid-afternoon
session on Wednesday as positive global cues and buying in oil and gas, metal

buying in index heavyweights like HDFC, Reliance Industries, Adani Ports and
Coal India aided the upward trajectory of the NSE Nifty50 and the BSE Sensex.

a sharp fall in the previous session, the benchmark indices opened higher on
Wednesday ahead of derivatives expiry of August series due on Thursday.

Maruti
Suzuki India announced the upgrading of its retail channel for better customer
service as the re-branded 'Maruti Suzuki Arena' that will require its dealers
to invest in redesigned showrooms over the next five years. "Besides
providing a more comfortable ambience for buyers, key to the new-look
dealerships is the digital connectivity offering a seamless experience of the
car going from online to offline at the showroom," an official of India's
biggest car maker said at the launch event. The company website has been
suitably upgraded. The investment in re-doing the more than 2,000 dealerships
across India would be made by the dealers themselves who have readily agreed to
it, said R.S. Kalsi, Senior Executive Director (Marketing and Sales).
"About 80 showrooms of the 2,050 in India will be converted to the Arena
within this financial year," he said, adding the other "partners"
will upgrade to the Arena format within three to five years. "With today's
launch, the company will have four distinct retail channels -- Arena, Nexa,
Maruti Suzuki Commercial and True Value. Arena is set to usher in a new chapter
in our sales journey and help attract new buyers," said Chief Executive
Kenichi Ayukawa. The company’s shares closed at Rs7,557.45, up 0.51% on the

non-performing accounts and additional Rs3,000 crore in the second list of 21
stressed accounts. "In the initial list of 12 (companies or stressed
accounts), we have exposure in nine accounts and the exposure would be Rs4,500
