15 Sept - Today Updates - Rising Wholesale Inflation and Global Tech Tensions - Gautam Kapil

In this broadcast of Today Updates with Gautam Kapil, we examine the critical factors pushing India's wholesale inflation rate to 9.92 percent as energy and manufacturing input costs continue to place pressure on industrial supply chains. We take an in-depth look at the widespread power outages across Punjab, the administrative shake-up inside state electricity bodies, and ongoing efforts to stabilise coal supplies for thermal power units. Internationally, we analyze the timing behind Pakistan placing a seventy lakh rupee bounty on Jaish-e-Mohammed chief Masood Azhar right before the Financial Action Task Force meeting in Paris. The episode also breaks down the sharp sell-off across global semiconductor and artificial intelligence stocks, geopolitical friction between the United States and China over technology standards, and major Australian developments including student visa debates, Snowy Hydro 2.0 governance, and sudden layoffs at the Whyalla Steelworks.
