When it comes to <keyword id="19957108" type="General" weightage="100" keywordseo="online-shopping" source="keywords">online shopping</keyword>, almost anything can be bought and sold within minutes. People love ordering new stuff from the comfort of their homes and the online shopping trend is growing day by day. However, every coin has two sides and there are some challenges associated with online shopping as well. As per latest reports, e-commerce platform Meesho is facing backlash over its latest product - Lawrence Bishnoi T-shirts. Yes, you read that right. <h2>Meesho faces backlash </h2> The popular e-commerce platform is under the scanner for listing merchandise featuring the infamous gangster Lawrence Bishnoi. Social media erupted when users discovered T-shirts adorned with his image being sold online, sparking debates about the consequences of idealising criminal figures. Journalist Alishan Jafri highlighted the worrying trend in an X thread, explaining how such merchandise feeds into a broader issue of online <keyword id="23805599" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="gangster-glorification" source="keywords">gangster glorification</keyword>, which is influencing real-world violence among the youth. The T-shirts, as per the thread, were being sold on the platform for prices starting from Rs 168. Jafri shared examples of minors inspired by these online depictions committing serious crimes, from violent assaults to murder. For instance, he recounted incidents like a 15-year-old killing a friend after being influenced by gang content and minors in Delhi attempting to emulate “dons” for social media fame. His investigation underlined that while authorities work tirelessly to curb these trends, platforms hosting such merchandise inadvertently contribute to a culture of gang idolisation. Meesho’s listing has drawn widespread criticism, with many questioning the ethics behind promoting figures linked to violent crime. “This should be stopped, we can't encourage the younger generation to think of this gangster as heroes,” a user wrote and another added, “And a kid also wearing a his t shirt. So wrong.” Let us take a look at some more reactions: <div type="image" title="google (24)" msid="114968112" hostid="261"></div> However, when Business Insider India tried finding these T-shirts on Meesho's website, they appear to have been taken down. <h2>Meesho's statement </h2> In a statement to Business Insider India, Meesho's spokesperson clarified the situation and said, "We have taken immediate action to deactivate the products. Meesho remains committed to providing a safe and trusted shopping platform for all our users."

‘Gangsters are not heroes’: Meesho is selling Lawrence Bishnoi T-shirts and the internet is not happy about it

<keyword id="19983534" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="Hero-MotoCorp" source="keywords" meta.keywordsubtype="org" meta.entityname="Hero MotoCorp" meta.hostid="261" meta.entityid="Hero MotoCorp">Hero MotoCorp</keyword>, one of the leading <keyword id="22160307" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="two-wheeler-manufacturers" source="keywords">two-wheeler manufacturers</keyword> in the country, has announced a price increase for its <keyword id="20067449" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="motorcycles" source="keywords">motorcycles</keyword> and <keyword id="22160306" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="scooters" source="keywords">scooters</keyword> starting from July 1, 2024. This information was conveyed by the company in a filing to the exchange on Monday. "Hero <keyword id="20291118" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="motocorp" source="keywords">MotoCorp</keyword> will make an upward revision in the ex-showroom prices of select motorcycles and scooters, with effect from July 1, 2024," said the company. The price increase will be up to Rs 1,500 on various models, although the exact amount will differ depending on the specific model and market. "The price revision will be up to Rs. 1,500 and the exact quantum of increase will vary by specific model and market," the company clarified. This means that while some models might see a smaller increase, others could reach the maximum threshold of Rs 1,500. The company has attributed this price adjustment to the rising input costs associated with manufacturing. The company stated that the increase was necessary to mitigate some of these higher costs. "The revision has been necessitated to partially offset the impact of higher input costs," the company stated. The two-wheeler sales in India experienced a marginal decline in May as compared to the same period in the previous year. The major two-wheeler manufacturers of the country reported a decrease in sales numbers, reflecting a broader trend in the industry. In May 2024 Hero MotoCorp, sold 498,123 units, marking a decrease from the 519,474 units sold in May 2023. This decline was observed in both the scooter and motorcycle segments. Specifically, Hero MotoCorp's scooter sales fell to 26,937 units in May 2024, down from 30,138 units in May 2023. Motorcycle sales also saw a decline, with 471,186 units sold in May 2024 compared to 489,336 units in May 2023. However, the company registered growth in export sales. Hero Moto Corp exports were up from 11,165 units in May 2023 to 18,673 units in May 2024.

Hero MotoCorp announces price hike for motorcycles and scooters from July 1

This is all thanks to a strong rally in TVS Motor shares this year – they have surged 71% so far in 2022, while those of Hero MotoCorp gained just 2.4% during the period. With this, TVS Motor’s market capitalization has climbed to ₹51,078 crore, a tad more than Hero MotoCorp’s market value of ₹51,069 crore. <div type="image" title="ongc (2)" height="900" width="1200" msid="94863087" hostid="261" sizebytes="64534"></div> TVS expects demand to remain strong during festive season While announcing its September sales numbers, the company said that it had seen a robust start to the festive season and the demand was expected to further accelerate during the season. Analysts believe TVS Motor has been doing well since the last few years in terms of sales, especially after it ventured into the electric vehicles (EV) space. “The last two years have been good for TVS Motor as a lot of their new products have been successful, their sales in three wheelers have also been very strong. In EV as well, TVS has done well and is moving faster than other two companies – Hero MotoCorp and Bajaj Auto as of now,” said Piyush Parag, deputy vice president – research at Sharekhan by BNP Paribas. The EV sales boom also aided TVS Motor’s growth. In September this year, it sold 4,923 units of TVS iQube Electric as against 766 units in September 2021. On the other hand, its competitor Hero MotoCrop has been late to the EV party. It launched its first electric scooter VIDA V1 only this October. The sector already has established players like Ather Energy and Ola Electric. Moreover, it is also more vulnerable to industry-wide slowdown. “If an industry as a whole does not perform well, Hero MotoCorp will be the one getting affected a lot because it has the largest market share in the two-wheeler space. The last two years have not been great for Hero MotoCorp since Covid-19 happened as the entry level and executive segment hasn’t performed well,” said Parag. Adding to Hero MotoCorp’s woes, in March this year there were reports that the income tax department had <a href="https://www.moneycontrol.com/news/business/i-t-dept-detects-rs-1000-crore-bogus-expense-claims-by-hero-motocorp-report-8290971.html">detected bogus expenses </a>to the tune of ₹1,000 crore made by the company. TVS Motor shows overall strength despite export troubles TVS Motor has global footprints in countries including the Middle East, Africa, South East Asia, the Indian subcontinent, Latin and Central America. However, its export sales have not been doing well due to the challenging economic environment around the world. The company's total exports fell in September 2022 with sales at 92,975 units as against sales of 1.02 lakh units last year. “On the international markets front, there is marginal improvement, however, the challenges with economic slowdown and higher inflation still persists. We are cautiously optimistic that the sales momentum will continue to improve,” said the company. Strong sales in the other segments have managed to make up for the slower export sales for TVS Motor, which manufactures the largest range of two wheelers, starting from mopeds to scooters and commuter motorcycles to racing-inspired bikes. <table style="border-width: initial;
