2024 TVS Jupiter vs Honda Activa 6G – which 110cc scooter should you buy?

The Federation of Automobile Dealers Associations (<keyword id="354719" type="General" weightage="80" keywordseo="fada" source="Orion">FADA</keyword>), the leading body of automobile retail in India, on Thursday submitted a critical representation to the Goods and Services Tax (<keyword id="6354679" type="General" weightage="100" keywordseo="gst" source="Orion">GST</keyword>) Council, urging an immediate reduction in the GST rate on two-wheelers from the current 28 per cent to 18 per cent. This timely and decisive intervention is aimed at making two-wheelers more affordable, reviving demand and reinvigorating an industry that has seen a significant slump in sales over the past few years, according to a statement from FADA. FADA President Manish Raj Singhania affirmed, "The two-wheeler industry is at a critical juncture, grappling with unprecedented challenges such as rising inflation, stringent emission norms, and the post-COVID-19 effects in Bharat of India." He said this is the opportune moment for the GST Council to reduce the GST rate on two-wheelers, making them more accessible for the common man, thereby providing the much-needed boost to the industry, generating employment opportunities and fostering India's overall economic growth. FADA's compelling appeal has been forwarded to Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman, chair of the GST Council, all GST Council members; the Ministry of Heavy Industries, which supervises the automobile sector and the Ministry of Road Transport and Highways. This action underscores the urgency and significance of the issue, it added. FADA said over the past few years, the prices of various two-wheelers have risen significantly, impacting their affordability for consumers across India. This surge in prices can be attributed to multiple factors, including the rising cost of raw materials, stricter emission norms and higher taxes and levies, FADA said, adding that for instance, the price of the popular -- Honda Activa -- has escalated from Rs 52,000 in 2016 to Rs 88,000 in 2023. Similarly, the Bajaj Pulsar has witnessed a substantial increase from Rs 72,000 in 2016 to Rs 1,50,000 in 2023. The Hero Splendor and <keyword id="1871753" type="General" weightage="50" keywordseo="tvs-jupiter" source="Orion">TVS Jupiter</keyword> have also experienced considerable price hikes over the same period, with their prices soaring from Rs 46,000 to Rs 74,801 and Rs 49,000 to Rs 88,498, respectively. The continuous rise in two-wheeler prices has consequently led to a decline in sales, emphasising the pressing need for intervention and GST rate reduction to restore the industry's growth trajectory, according to the statement. In 2016, two-wheelers accounted for 78 per cent of the total automobile sales in India. However, due to continuous price increases since 2020, this contribution has fallen to 72 per cent in FY23, underlining the impact of the steep price hike. FADA believes that a reduction in the GST rate will address several critical issues facing the industry, including rural distress, the transition from BS-4 to BS-6 emission norms and the sharp increase in two-wheeler prices. Lowering the GST rate will enhance the competitiveness of two-wheelers compared to other transportation modes, thereby increasing sales and revenue for the industry. The association also said two-wheelers play a pivotal role in providing affordable mobility to a large segment of India's population, especially in rural areas where public transportation is sparse. FADA also asserted that two-wheelers, being essential for millions, should not be categorised as sin goods or luxury items for GST taxation purposes.

On Wednesday, Mark Millar, <a href="https://www.businessinsider.com/netflixs-mark-millar-on-jupiters-legacy-and-millarworld-plans-2021-5">the Millarworld founder</a>, announced that the cast had been let out of their contracts, effectively ending the series. The show appeared in Netflix's daily top 10 lists of its most popular titles in the week after its debut (<a href="https://www.businessinsider.com/how-netflix-calculates-its-new-daily-top-10-lists-2020-2">Netflix counts a view</a> if an account watches at least two minutes of a show or movie). And it was the top streaming original series the weekend of its premiere with US viewers watching 696 million minutes of the series from May 7 to May 9, according to the research company <a href="https://www.nielsen.com/us/en/top-ten/?utm_source=linkedin&amp;utm_medium=socialpress&amp;utm_campaign=2020_010_08_top10&amp;utm_content=mediaontent=media">Nielsen</a>.But Netflix never announced viewership numbers for "Jupiter's Legacy" as it has for its biggest hits in recent years, suggesting that the series didn't live up to the expectations set by its sizable production budget (The Hollywood Reporter's Borys Kit <a href="https://twitter.com/Borys_Kit/status/1400228543313825792">tweeted</a> that according to sources, the series cost $200 million to make including reshoots. A person with direct knowledge of the production gave Insider a more conservative number closer to $130 million.).While it made Netflix's daily rankings, "Jupiter's Legacy" fell short of other shows that have dominated those lists. The series spent six days as the No. 1 show on Netflix in the US and 26 days in the top 10 shows, according to the streaming search engine <a href="https://reelgood.com/">Reelgood</a>. <div type="image" title="Alina Shadow and Bone season one Netflix 2" height="1333" width="2000" msid="83347124" hostid="261"></div>Netflix's hit fantasy series, "Shadow and Bone," which the streamer renewed for season two this week, was the No. 1 show for 12 days and spent 35 days in the top 10, according to Reelgood. Netflix said on Monday that the series was watched by 55 million households globally in its first week, placing it among <a href="https://www.businessinsider.com/bridgerton-compared-to-other-netflix-top-original-shows-viewership-2021-1">Netflix's top 10 original shows of all time</a>. "Shadow and Bone" was also watched for 1.2 billion minutes in the US over its debut weekend, according to Nielsen, well ahead of the numbers for "Jupiter's Legacy." Both shows' first seasons included eight episodes. "Jupiter's Legacy" also fell short of other Netflix hits in its tenure on the streamer's top 10 list."Ginny and Georgia" was the top show for 29 days and appeared in the top 10 for 68 days. "Bridgerton" was the top series for 19 days and spent 71 days in the top 10. Both have been renewed for second seasons. And the limited series "The Queen's Gambit" was the No. 1 show on Netflix in the US for 23 days and spent 79 days in the top 10.The chart below breaks down the numbers:<div type="image" title="reelgood jupiter's legacy shadow and bone top 10 lists chart" height="2250" width="3150" msid="83347125" hostid="261"></div>"Jupiter's Legacy" also received poor reviews from critics and has a 38% critic score on Rotten Tomatoes, while "Shadow and Bone" earned an 87% critic score. In a review of "Jupiter's Legacy," CNN's Brian Lowry <a href="https://www.cnn.com/2021/05/07/entertainment/jupiters-legacy-review/index.html">wrote</a> that it "moves in what feels like slow motion." Rolling Stone's Alan Sepinwall <a href="https://www.rollingstone.com/tv/tv-reviews/jupiters-legacy-review-netflix-josh-duhamel-1164380/">wrote</a> that the series is "meant to be viewed with utmost seriousness, yet it feels like a parody where someone forgot to insert the jokes."Audience enthusiasm for the shows also diverged; "Jupiter's Legacy" has a tepid 72% audience score on Rotten Tomatoes and "Shadow and Bone" has a more favorable 90%. Since Netflix bought Millarworld in 2017, the streaming giant's <a href="https://www.businessinsider.com/list-of-netflix-upcoming-franchises-events-spectacles-tv-movies-2021-3">pursuit of genre-heavy IP has intensified</a> as competitors like Disney and WarnerMedia focus on mega franchises to boost their own streaming businesses. Netflix introduced two new divisions last year to advance in this effort: the events/spectacle team, which oversaw "Jupiter's Legacy," and the franchise team.While "Jupiter's Legacy" is done, Netflix <a href="https://www.businessinsider.com/whats-next-for-jupiters-legacy-creator-at-netflix-2021-5">still intends to mine Millarworld for comic-book IP</a>. "Super Crooks" live-action and anime shows are in the works, set in the same universe as "Jupiter's Legacy" but from the villains' points of view. And series based on Millarworld comics like "American Jesus" and "The Magic Order" are also in development.

<ul class="summary-list"><li><keyword id="128682" type="COMPANY" weightage="60" keywordseo="Netflix">Netflix</keyword> introduced a spectacle and events <keyword id="6355065" type="UNKNOWN" weightage="60" keywordseo="TV">TV</keyword> division last year, led by exec Peter Friedlander.</li><li>Friedlander broke down the difference between spectacle and event programming.</li><li>He also discussed shows that fall under his purview, like "<keyword id="11196640" type="UNKNOWN" weightage="60" keywordseo="jupiters-legacy">Jupiter's Legacy</keyword>" and the upcoming "Sweet Tooth."</li></ul>The worlds of Netflix's latest comic-book shows, its upcoming "<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9zG9RuJb3QU">Sweet Tooth</a>" and recent hit "Jupiter's Legacy," are very different."Jupiter's Legacy" is about the world's first superheroes struggling to pass on their decades-old code of values to their superpowered children as their enemies become more dangerous. "Sweet Tooth" is a fantasy series where many children have been born as half-human, half-animal "hybrids." Gus, a human-deer boy, sets out on a journey across a post-apocalyptic America looking for answers about himself as he's being hunted.But Netflix's Peter Friedlander, who runs the team behind them, talks about both with the same sense of wonder."It's fun for me to mine these worlds that do have existing fandoms that you hope you can ignite around a visual medium and expand upon them," Friedlander told Insider during a recent interview ahead of the release of "Sweet Tooth" on June 4.Both shows are part of Netflix's grander content ambitions as it looks to <a href="https://www.businessinsider.com/list-of-netflix-upcoming-franchises-events-spectacles-tv-movies-2021-3">build bankable franchises or "spectacle" programming</a> that can compete with established Hollywood IP from the likes of Disney and WarnerMedia. Netflix said <a href="https://variety.com/2021/tv/news/netflix-2021-content-spend-17-billion-1234955953/">it would spend $17 billion on content</a> this year, up from $11.8 billion last year when the pandemic slowed production."The thing that many studios are able to do is create great franchises," Netflix's co-CEO Reed Hastings told The Hollywood Reporter in September, when asked <a href="https://www.businessinsider.com/netflix-wants-to-build-franchises-like-star-wars-harry-potter-2020-9">what Netflix could learn from Hollywood</a>. "We're making great progress on that with 'Stranger Things' and other properties, but compared to 'Harry Potter' and 'Star Wars,' we've got a long way to go."Friedlander is helping Netflix get there.<h2>How Netflix defines a spectacle or event series</h2>Friedlander joined the company in 2011 as its first employee dedicated to original series; a decade later, after playing an essential role in Netflix hits like "House of Cards" and "The Haunting of Hill House," he's overseeing a new spectacle and event TV division introduced last year to help Netflix achieve its lofty goals (Kelly Luegenbiehl leads a new franchise TV team).Friedlander described the content under his team as being in two buckets: visual-effects driven, IP driven fantasy, sci-fi, and action programming (spectacle TV) and prestige limited series like "The Queen's Gambit" and "When They See Us" (event TV).Friedlander said that his team is responsible for scouting IP with potential to turn into shows, but they also hear pitches from creators. The team is composed of directors, managers, and associates across the original series division, and supported by other teams like business affairs, which negotiates contracts."There is no checklist," Friedlander said of the content he looks for. "It's not just me, but a number of talented, passionate superfans inside Netflix that are constantly mining IP or hearing pitches from storytellers that are so riveting they seem undeniable."While Friedlander's shows don't technically start out as "franchises," he said that the two teams - spectacle/events and franchises - will often work together. Netflix thinks about franchise shows as those that have spinoff potential, like the hit fantasy series "The Witcher." Netflix is already developing a prequel series, called "The Witcher: Blood Origin," and an anime movie."I'm hoping that the spectacle shows we're creating could one day become franchises," Friedlander said. "The franchise team focuses on building those out."What's most important to him in a story is whether a show is relatable, even if it's about a family of superheroes or a deer-human hybrid. "It's about the ability to empathize with a character you didn't think that you would," he said. "I'm always looking to be put in other people's shoes and look through other people's eyes."<div type="image" title="jupiter's legacy" height="1378" width="2012" msid="82770135" hostid="261"></div><h2>Netflix is leaning into genre like never before</h2>Netflix had 90 TV shows in early development or production based on books, comics, manga, or video games as of March, according to the research firm Ampere Analysis. Book adaptations lead with 60, and the remaining 30 were comic, manga, and game adaptations.Some of those adaptations are projects that Friedlander and the events/spectacle team are overseeing. Here are a few:<ul><li><a href="https://www.businessinsider.com/netflix-adapting-the-three-body-problem-game-of-thrones-duo-2020-9">"The Three-Body Problem,"</a> based on the sci-fi novel by the Chinese author Liu Cixin. </li><li>A live-action "Avatar: The Last Airbender" series.</li><li>Tim Burton's "Wednesday," based on the Addams Family's Wednesday Addams.</li><li>"Cowboy Bebop," based on the anime series of the same name.</li><li>"Vikings: Valhalla," a spin-off of History Channel's "Vikings."</li><li>"Assassin's Creed," based on the Ubisoft video-game franchise.</li></ul>"Jupiter's Legacy," which spent a week at the top of Netflix's daily lists of its most popular shows in the US earlier this month, is also under Friedlander's purview. It's the first series from Netflix's 2017 acquisition of <keyword id="4861430" type="PERSON" weightage="60" keywordseo="Millarworld">Millarworld</keyword>, the comic-book company founded by Mark Millar."We knew we had something special when a team of superheroes is arguing at the dining table and then going off to fight a villain," Friedlander said. "Jupiter's Legacy" is only the beginning for Millarworld at Netflix.Millar has a board in his office with the next five years mapped out, <a href="https://www.businessinsider.com/netflixs-mark-millar-on-jupiters-legacy-and-millarworld-plans-2021-5">he told Insider earlier this month</a>. The plans include "American Jesus," about a teenager who discovers he's the resurrected Jesus Christ, and "The Magic Order," which was postponed due to the pandemic but that Millar called a "top priority" along with "Jupiter's Legacy." "We were drawn to the breadth of Mark's creations and stories," Friedlander said. "With his existing IP as well as the stories yet to be told, we knew it was a really great opportunity to have him as a partner."Next up for Friedlander's team is "Sweeth Tooth," based on the post-apocalyptic DC comic by Jeff Lemire, which he described as a "fairy tale" with elements of drama, adventure, and sci-fi."It has a real sense of adventure about it, but it also has a sense of hope and wonder," Friedlander said. "Gus' journey is both an emotional one as well as an adventurous one. As people experience the show it'll be like peeling back layers of an onion - there's something new with each episode."

Netflix had temporarily shelved the series last year as production stalled due to the pandemic."Some time away has given us a chance to come back with a completely fresh look at the material, and we should be getting into our new writers' room very shortly," Millar wrote.Below are the other highlights from Millar's blog post last week:<ul><li>A six-episode, live-action spy series is in the works.

"Jupiter's Legacy" falls under the latter team.While audiences flocked to "Jupiter's Legacy" over the weekend, critics were tough on the series. It has a 39% critic score on Rotten Tomatoes."I kept feeling like I'd missed key pieces of plot or character development and I kept checking to see if I'd skipped episodes," The Hollywood Reporter's Dan Feinberg <a href="https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/tv/tv-reviews/jupiters-legacy-1234949528/">wrote</a>."For a series about superheroes, 'Jupiter's Legacy' moves in what feels like slow motion," CNN's Brian Lowry <a href="https://www.cnn.com/2021/05/07/entertainment/jupiters-legacy-review/index.html">wrote</a>.Viewers were kinder in their assessments and the series currently has a 74% audience score on Rotten Tomatoes.

'Jupiter's Legacy' is Netflix's No. 1 show right now. Here's what's next for creator Mark Millar's superhero universe.

The 12 biggest questions we have after season 1 of Netflix's 'Jupiter's Legacy'

<ul class="summary-list"><li>"<keyword id="11196640" type="UNKNOWN" weightage="60" keywordseo="jupiters-legacy">Jupiter's Legacy</keyword>," <keyword id="128682" type="COMPANY" weightage="60" keywordseo="Netflix">Netflix</keyword>'s first <keyword id="4861430" type="PERSON" weightage="60" keywordseo="Millarworld">Millarworld</keyword> series since buying the comic company in 2017, debuted on Friday.</li><li>Millarworld's president Mark Millar talked with Insider about the Netflix deal and the series.</li><li>"Jupiter's Legacy" is part of Netflix's grander ambitions to develop franchises and event shows.</li></ul>This story was originally published on Wednesday, May 5, and has been updated with Millarworld news announced on Thursday.Comics writer Mark Millar is known for some of Marvel's most talked-about stories of the 2000s. But he credits a 2003 conversation with Stan Lee, the cocreator of some of Marvel's biggest characters like Spider-Man and the X-Men, with inspiring his trek away from Marvel and into a comics universe of his own."Growing up I always wanted to work at Marvel and DC," Millar told Insider during a phone interview last week. "But Stan said that every generation needs new characters."Millarworld, Millar's aptly named comics company, was born in 2004, the year after his conversation with Lee. With Millarworld, he created his own comics with artists like J.G. Jones and John Romita Jr. that were adapted into films like 2008's "Wanted" and 2010's "Kick-Ass."Then in 2017, Netflix bought Millarworld for an undisclosed amount in the streamer's first acquisition, giving the company access to a library of potential new franchises.While <keyword id="2370" type="COMPANY" weightage="60" keywordseo="hollywood">Hollywood</keyword> had quickly taken notice of Millar's work, he said he hadn't expected to sell the company quite so soon."I thought I'd be 70 by the time I sold it," the 51-year-old said.<a href="https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/heat-vision/behind-netflixs-bold-bet-comics-king-mark-millar-1031336">The Hollywood Reporter</a> reported at the time that the deal was worth between $30 million and $50 million, but <a href="https://www.wsj.com/articles/netflix-makes-its-first-acquisition-1502115170">The Wall Street Journal</a> reported a pricier deal in the $50 million and $100 million range. Millar serves as president and creative chief and his wife Lucy is CEO, and they co-own each of the 20 properties included in the Millarworld sale, Millar said. The first product of that acquisition, "Jupiter's Legacy," debuted on Friday. Based on Millar and artist Frank Quiteley's 2013 comic of the same name, it follows the world's first superheroes who are struggling with how to pass on their values to their children as their enemies become more dangerous.Before "Jupiter's Legacy," Millar had created original stories about assassins ("Wanted") and a teenager with no superpowers who fights crime ("Kick-Ass"). With "Jupiter's Legacy," he wanted to create something a bit grander and larger in scope. He said he spent eight weeks planning "90 years of continuity" for the comic, with notes scattered throughout his office before writing a script. "I thought it had to be the greatest thing I've ever done or what's the point," he said. "I wanted it to be the next step as a creator."Millar said there was never any doubt in his mind that "Jupiter's Legacy" would be the first of his works he wanted to bring to the screen for Netflix. And the company was on board from the beginning."It wasn't even a debate," Millar said. "We were all on the same page."<div type="image" title="kick-ass movie" height="1344" width="2052" msid="82408146" hostid="261"></div><h2>Millarworld gives Netflix plenty of franchises to choose from</h2>During Millar's time at Marvel, he ushered in a bold, and sometimes controversial, new iteration of the Avengers with "The Ultimates" along with artist Bryan Hitch, which laid some of the groundwork for the big-screen version of the team. He wrote the 2006 event comic "Civil War" that inspired the Marvel Cinematic Universe's 2016 movie "Captain America: Civil War."But by 2011, after "Wanted" and "Kick-Ass" had hit the big screen, Millar felt comfortable enough to leave Marvel and dedicate his full attention to Millarworld. Now, the comics company is shaping up to be a content powerhouse for Netflix, the leading <keyword id="572624" type="PERSON" weightage="60" keywordseo="Streaming">streaming</keyword> service with more than 200 million subscribers worldwide.In Millar's office is a board with plans for the next five years of Millarworld at Netflix. Some of it has already been announced, including "American Jesus" based on the Millarworld comic, about a 12-year-old boy who discovers he's the resurrected Jesus Christ.The evolution of Millarworld will be one of Netflix's first efforts toward franchise building.Since 2017, when Netflix bought Millarworld, the <a href="https://www.businessinsider.com/movie-studios-and-netflix-battle-for-cross-platform-franchises-2021-2">urgency for new, genre-heavy content with broad appeal</a> has grown. Netflix has been increasingly scooping up IP <a href="https://www.businessinsider.com/list-of-netflix-upcoming-franchises-events-spectacles-tv-movies-2021-3">with franchise potential</a> as competitors like Disney and WarnerMedia grow their own streaming businesses with a focus on established IP like Disney's Marvel and "Star Wars," and WarnerMedia's DC Comics."The thing that many studios are able to do is create great franchises," Reed Hastings, the Netflix co-CEO, <a href="https://www.businessinsider.com/netflix-wants-to-build-franchises-like-star-wars-harry-potter-2020-9">told The Hollywood Reporter in September</a>.

"Jupiter's Legacy" falls under the latter team.Friedlander told Insider that the best pitches and scripts are ones where the audience can relate to or empathize with the characters. What drew him to "Jupiter's Legacy" was that it was a superhero series about parenthood."We knew we had something special when a team of superheroes is arguing at the dining table and then going off to fight a villain," he said. Eight years after the comic debuted, an entirely new audience will be introduced to "Jupiter's Legacy." But it's only the beginning."We have a list of things that are top priorities, and 'Jupiter's Legacy' and 'The Magic Order' were at the top of the list," Millar told Insider.On Thursday, after Insider talked with Millar, he <a href="https://about.netflix.com/en/news/mark-millar-jupiters-legacy-and-whats-next-from-millarworld">announced Millarworld updates</a> including that "The Magic Order" series is back in active development, based on the 2018 comic by Millar and artist Oliver Coipel. Netflix decided not to move forward with the series last year as planned, which Millar attributed to pandemic-related filming complications."Some time away has given us a chance to come back with a completely fresh look at the material, and we should be getting into our new writers' room very shortly," Millar wrote in a blog post.He also announced an anime series called "Super Crooks," based on his comic book about "superpowered heist comic about eight super-villains." The fantasy movie "Reborn" is also in the works from "The LEGO Batman Movie" director Chris McKay and starring Sandra Bullock. Millar isn't just overseeing adaptations of his existing comics work, though. He's also expected to create new characters and stories in his role at Netflix, he said."We were drawn to the breadth of Mark's creations and stories," Friedlander said. "With his existing IP as well as the stories yet to be told, we knew it was a really great opportunity to have him as a partner."
