In a major setback to Delhi's <keyword id="19935664" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="Aam-Aadmi-Party" source="keywords" meta.keywordsubtype="org" meta.entityname="Aam Aadmi Party" meta.hostid="345" meta.entityid="Aam Aadmi Party">Aam Aadmi Party</keyword> government, the <keyword id="19895345" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="Supreme-Court" source="keywords" meta.keywordsubtype="org" meta.entityname="Supreme Court" meta.hostid="345" meta.entityid="Supreme Court">Supreme Court</keyword> on Monday ruled that the law "expressly enables" the lieutenant governor to nominate <keyword id="22669982" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="aldermen" source="keywords">aldermen</keyword> to the <keyword id="19900879" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="mcd" source="keywords">MCD</keyword> and he is not bound by the advice of the council of ministers in the matter. A bench of Chief Justice D Y Chandrachud and Justices P S Narasimha and J B Pardiwala rejected the <keyword id="19925995" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="Delhi-government" source="keywords">Delhi government</keyword>'s plea challenging the LG's power to nominate 10 aldermen in the <keyword id="19907640" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="Municipal-Corporation-of-Delhi" source="keywords" meta.keywordsubtype="org" meta.entityname="Municipal Corporation of Delhi" meta.hostid="345" meta.entityid="Municipal Corporation of Delhi">Municipal Corporation of Delhi</keyword> without the aid and advice of the council of ministers. The apex court pronounced its verdict on the Delhi government's plea after reserving it for nearly 15 months. In its ruling impacting the fraught relationship between the LG's office and the AAP-led Delhi government, the bench said the Delhi Municipal Corporation Act as amended in 1993 "expressly enables the LG to nominate persons having special knowledge to the corporation". It said the power expressed by the statute in the name of the LG, also seen in the context of other provisions, demonstrates the statutory scheme in which the powers and duties are distributed among authorities under the Act. "The context in which the power is located confirms that the LG is intended to act as per the mandate of the statute and not guided by the aid and advice of the council of ministers. The power to be exercised is the statutory duty of the LG and not the executive power of the state. This is how we analysed the constitutional provisions," Justice Narasimha said while pronouncing the verdict on behalf of the bench. The bench said the statutory power under provision 3(3)(b)(1) which deals with nomination of persons having special knowledge was vested with the LG for the first time by the 1993 amendment of the DMC Act of 1957. The bench said the DMC Act as amended in 1993 recognises five authorities exercising the state's power and duties under the Act -- these are the Central government, the government of NCT, administrator, corporation and the commissioner. It said the amendment Act of 1993 carries out several amendments to the original DMC Act of 1957 by which the power, duties were allocated to the authorities depending on the function they perform under the law. The bench said by way of the amendment the power of nomination of aldermen was given to LG under the provision just like the power of nomination of MLAs was given to the speaker of the House. On May 17 last year, the top court had said that giving the LG the power to nominate aldermen to the MCD will mean he can destabilise an elected civic body. The MCD has 250 elected and 10 nominated members. In December 2022, the Aam Aadmi Party defeated the <keyword id="19894848" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="BJP" source="keywords" meta.keywordsubtype="org" meta.entityname="BJP" meta.hostid="345" meta.entityid="BJP">BJP</keyword> in the civic elections, winning 134 wards and ending the saffron party's 15-year run at the helm of the MCD. The BJP won 104 seats and the Congress finished a distant third with nine. Senior advocate Abhishek Singhvi, appearing for the Delhi government, had contended during the hearing that no separate powers have been accorded to the state government to nominate people to the MCD. For the past 30 years, the practice of the LG nominating aldermen on the aid and advice of the city government has been followed, he said. Additional Solicitor General Sanjay Jain, appearing for the LG's office, submitted that just because a practice has been followed for 30 years does not mean it is correct. The top court had observed that giving the LG the power to nominate aldermen will effectively mean that he can destabilise a democratically elected MCD because these aldermen get appointed to the standing committees and have voting power. Earlier, the top court had questioned the "source of power" of the LG under the Constitution and the law to nominate aldermen to the MCD without the aid and advice of the elected government. On May 12 last year, the top court observed that LG has to act on the "aid and advice" of the council of ministers of the Delhi government in nominating 10 aldermen to the MCD.

The stock has risen as much as 191% in the last 1 year and nearly 100% since coronavirus induced lockdown. It's showing no signs of stalling yet. In a report dated July 2, analysts at Axis Securities expected the stock to hit ₹6172 in the next one year. It's already surpassed that. <div type="image" title="Dixon share" msid="77011274" hostid="261"></div> The rapid growth is backed by orders from recently added clients Reliance Jio and <keyword id="51758" type="COMPANY" weightage="20" keywordseo="Dish-TV">Dish TV</keyword>, according to Axis Securities. The company makes popular electronic products like television, setup box, washing machine for the brand owners like Samsung, Toshiba, Nokia, LG, Reliance Jio and many more to name a few. In the lighting segment, Dixon has got Havells and HPL, together with other the major brands in its kitty. India-China tensions boosted its production On the back of the India China standoff, the company saw a growing demand for ‘made in India’ products. Earlier, Samsung decided to expand its partnership with Dixon Technologies and led to further gains for the company. The company said it will bring down the number of TVs imported from its plants in other countries and manufacture almost 85-90% of the televisions locally to sell in India. <div type="image" title="Dixon (2)" msid="77011292" hostid="261"></div> The consumer electronics segment, which contributes around 45% of the company’s revenue saw a growth of 22% in the Q4. While other businesses like lightning products, mobile phones, and security systems saw revenue decline during the quarter. Dixon Technologies’s MD Atul Lall told <keyword id="3320064" type="PERSON" weightage="20" keywordseo="BloombergQuint">BloombergQuint</keyword> that “India will emerge as an electronic manufacturing hub, servicing not only in the domestic market but also in certain categories globally.” He added that the consumer durables industry was likely to witness a lot of pent-up demand, due to the virus-induced lockdown, especially for brands with an online presence.” Strong customers addition helped in tough times Dixon has regularly been acquiring new clients during the crisis. Fueled by PM Modi’s ‘Atma Nirbhar Bharat’ many companies are now looking to manufacture products in India, few of the new clients include Voltas Beko and Reliance Digital’s private label brands such as Kelvinator. “A key advantage for Dixon is its diversification across customers, products and product fungibility, which makes manufacturing flexible. When it is not making security systems, it can use that line to make set-top boxes or medical kits. Similarly, its largest OEM in TVs has a strong online sales model, which has helped inventory even during the lockdown,” said a <keyword id="184717" type="COMPANY" weightage="20" keywordseo="Dolat-Capital">Dolat Capital</keyword> report dated June 11. Production-linked incentive scheme for Dixon Dixon is expected to be largely benefitted by the government’s production-linked incentive scheme for mobile manufacturing. The scheme offers incentives to boost domestic manufacturing of mobiles. As per government norms sub $200 phones, which is 70% of the Indian market, can only be done by domestic companies, and this puts Dixon in a sweet spot. The company’s fourth-quarterly earnings have also beaten estimates and delivered a good financial performance. The net profit jumped 66.84% to ₹27.6 crore.

New Delhi, Mar 31 () To help authorities and people increase preparedness against Covid-19, electronic majors Samsung and LG have pledged to offer products and protective equipment like surgeon gown, face masks, glove, refrigerators, water purifiers, among others, to hospitals. LG Electronics India on Tuesday said it has also partnered with Akshaya Patra Foundation to sponsor one million meals to migrant labourers and daily wage workers, who are struggling amid the 21-day lockdown in the country. "With the rise in confirmed cases of COVID-19, LG has taken a pledge to support India's fight against the pandemic. LG is committed to offer active support to people in need in this current situation," it said in a statement. LG Electronics India will donate products like water purifiers, air conditioners, refrigerators and TVs to the hospitals for their quarantine/isolation wards, covering 50 state and district hospitals across the country. Samsung India, on the other hand, will provide preventive kits to hospitals, which includes a surgeon gown, face mask, gloves, preventive eye wear, hood cap and shoe cover. It will also provide infra-red thermometers and public addressal systems that can be used by the authorities at hospitals and other facilities, along with air purifiers in medical facilities. The India unit of Samsung said it will also support local police by providing cooked food packets to local communities around its manufacturing facility. "Samsung is committed to work together with the people of India in this hour of difficulty. Over the last few days, our teams have engaged round-the-clock with various governments, local authorities, and healthcare professionals to prepare a broad and meaningful strategy to win this battle together," Samsung India in a statement. COVID-19 infection, which originated in Wuhan in China, has spread across the world and claimed around 34,000 lives. Countries like South Korea, Spain, Italy, Iran and the US have been badly hit. In India, the total number of COVID-19 cases has risen to 1,251, while the death toll touched 32. To combat the spread, the government had announced a 21-day lockdown that ends on April 14. Corporate India has been rushing in to help the government and citizens fight the covid-19 pandemic in India. Tata Trusts &amp; Tata group together have pledged Rs 1,500 crore - by far the highest by any corporate. Reliance Industries chief Mukesh Ambani has also committed a further Rs 500 crore to the Prime Minister's COVID-19 fund, topping up over the multi-crore initiative of India's first coronavirus hospital, meals to the needy, and fuel to emergency vehicles. Infosys Foundation, the philanthropic arm of Infosys, has committed Rs 100 crore, while a number of other companies are also extending support efforts towards fighting COVID-19 in India. "In these precarious and uncertain times, LG India believes in helping and supporting the Government &amp; citizen of India with a meaningful contribution. Our initiative is designed to help those in need and contribute to society, at this critical juncture in a positive way.

LG Electronics just turned eighteen in India

This may not be the best thing to read in the morning but it surely is important for you! Some consumer durable majors will not offer warranty on their products that are sold online in their bid to boost the offline sale of their products. 
 Electronics giants such as <keyword id="6354248" type="CITY" weightage="80" keywordseo="Videocon">Videocon</keyword> and <keyword id="188506" type="CITY" weightage="80" keywordseo="LG-India">LG India</keyword> sell their televisions, refrigerators, microwave ovens, washing machines and airconditioners online and have said that consumers who buy their products online will have to pay for after sale services even during the warranty period. 
 
According to an ET report, the offline distributers’ network has demanded a complete shutdown of online sales in the current fiscal year. Companies are bound to oblige as their physical dealers largely generate sale for them. At present, online sales contribute less than 5% of their sales. However, smartphones are an exception as they generate 20% of the overall sales for these companies. 
 Nevertheless, taking note of the growing importance of <keyword id="436047" type="UNKNOWN" weightage="80" keywordseo="Ecommerce">eCommerce</keyword> sector in the country, White goods maker <keyword id="6356116" type="CITY" weightage="80" keywordseo="LG">LG</keyword> India is planning to exclusively tie-up with ecommerce companies for the sale of their smartphone portfolio. 
 
The report has also suggested that LG India has already issued an advisory to the consumers that the company will not offer any guarantee on the originality, suitability, update technology and after-sale services for the products, if they have been bought online except their own e-store. 
 
On being questioned about the impact such a move would have on the sales, Nildari Dutta , corporate marketing head for LG India said that Indian consumers still believed in the touch and feel concept as consumer durable products are big purchases. 
 "The industry has been trying to come to terms with e-commerce by offering exclusive models, but still some sites like Snapdeal are trying to disrupt the market dynamics by undercutting prices and not following business terms," said Videocon chief operating officer CM Singh in the report. Other consumer goods majors such as <keyword id="309701" type="COMPANY" weightage="80" keywordseo="Daikin-India">Daikin India</keyword>, Haier too have asked consumers to opt for offline sale of their products.
