Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s austerity call amid the West Asia conflict rattled markets, dragging the Sensex lower and pushing the rupee to a record low as fears over India’s import bill intensified.

In other news, governance tensions at Tata Trusts have intensified around Noel Tata’s succession-related moves, and NTPC’s massive Bihar nuclear project signals India’s accelerating clean energy ambitions.
