Pune has defeated Mumbai in a surprisingly close match. We all love those last ball matches. 
 All-rounder Hardik Pandya's last-over heroics helped <keyword id="13880" type="COMPANY" weightage="20" keywordseo="Mumbai-Indians">Mumbai Indians</keyword> recover from a mediocre position to post a healthy 184/8 against <keyword id="3315697" type="UNKNOWN" weightage="20" keywordseo="Rising-Pune-Supergiant">Rising Pune Supergiant</keyword> (RPS) in the second game of the 2017 Indian Premier League (IPL) at the Maharashtra Cricket Association Stadium here on Thursday. 
 
Bengal medium pacer Ashoke Dinda was the culprit for the home side conceding 30 runs in the final over when Hardik (35 not out) hammered the right-armer for four sixes (including three consecutive) and a four to change the course of the game. 
 
Earlier, South African leg-spinner Imran Tahir, who went unsold in the auctions and was a late addition to the Pune squad, brought the hosts back into the game with three quick wickets after the Mumbai opening duo of Jos Buttler (38) and Parthiv Patel (19) added 45 runs for the opening wicket. 
 
Introduced in the fifth over, Tahir struck in his second ball when he bowled Parthiv round his legs before packing Mumbai skipper Rohit Sharma (3) and Buttler in his next over to reduce Mumbai to 62/3. 
 
Rohit, who has been out of action for almost five months, was slow on his feet and it was enough for Tahir to break through his defence. One ball later, Tahir trapped the dangerous Buttler in front although television replays later showed that the Englishman had got a thick inside edge. 
 
Before his dismissal, Buttler lived up to his billing, milking his English teammate and IPL-10's costliest buy Ben Stokes (Rs 14.5 crore) for two consecutive sixes and then dispatching rookie Rajasthan medium-pacer Deepak Chahar for a four and a six off back-to-back deliveries. His 19-ball knock was laced with three hits to the fence and as many maximums. 
 
After the strategic time-out, Pune skipper Steve Smith introduced veteran all-rounder Rajat Bhatia, who responded well by taking a simple return catch to pack Ambati Rayudu (10) before dismissing Krunal Pandya (3) cheaply. 
 
Australian leggie Adam Zampa then added to the misery for the visitors by picking the crucial wicket of Nitish Rana (34), comfortably caught by Bhatia at deep midwicket. 
 
Rana looked good for his 28-ball knock, consisting a four and two sixes, but it was the 30-run fourth-wicket stand with Rayudu and 18 runs with Keiron Pollard (27) that mattered more. 
 Pollard, who was dropped by <keyword id="6397" type="PERSON" weightage="20" keywordseo="Dhoni">Dhoni</keyword> on 22, struggled to get the big shots before falling to a stunning running catch by Mayank Agarwal at the long-on boundary off Stokes. 
 
The West Indian struck three boundaries and a six in his 17-ball innings as he added 21 runs for the seventh wicket with Hardik Pandya. 
 
Hardik then added 37 runs for the eighth wicket with New Zealander Tim Southee (7) to put Mumbai in a commanding position. 
 
Brief Scores: Mumbai Indians 184/8 (Jos Buttler 38, Hardik Pandya 35 not out, Nitish Rana 34, Imran Tahir 3/28, Rajat Bhatia 2/14) vs Rising Pune Supergiant.

IPL 2017, Pune vs Mumbai: Pune defeat Mumbai in a last ball clincher

New Delhi, <keyword id="1390483" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="Housing-sales" source="Orion">Housing sales</keyword> rose 8 per cent annually during the April-June period to 80,250 units across eight major cities, mainly on increased demand in Mumbai and Pune, according to PropTiger. Sales stood at 74,320 units in the year-ago period across primary (fresh sales) residential markets of the top eight cities. The housing brokerage firm on Wednesday released its Real Insight Residential - April-June 2023 report, stating that housing sales rose in three cities Mumbai, Pune and Ahmedabad but declined in other five major cities -- Delhi-NCR, Bengaluru, Hyderabad, Chennai and Kolkata. "India's top eight residential markets continue on a growth path. The RBI's decision to pause the hike in the key lending rate helped in sustaining strong positive sentiments for buying residential properties," Vikas Wadhawan, group CFO of REA India, said. PropTiger, Housing.com and Makaan.com platforms are owned by REA India, which is part of Australian firm REA, and News Corp. "The driving factors behind the uptick in housing sales over the last two years are pent-up demand from the COVID-affected period, growing appetite for home ownership, revival in the economy post-pandemic, and the evolving need for more spacious homes," he said. As per the data, housing sales in Ahmedabad increased 17 per cent to 8,450 units during the April-June period to 7,240 units in the year-ago period. Bengaluru saw a 19 per cent decline in sales to 6,790 units from 8,350 units while Chennai witnessed a 5 per cent fall to 3,050 units from 3,210 units. Housing sales in Delhi NCR fell 28 per cent to 3,230 units from 4,510 units. Hyderabad too witnessed a 3 per cent drop in demand to 7,680 units from 7,910 units. Housing sales in Kolkata decreased 40 per cent to 1,940 units from 3,220 units. Mumbai Metropolitan Region (MMR) saw a 16 per cent increase in sales to 30,260 units during April-June period from 26,160 units in the year-ago period. In Pune, sales increased 37 per cent during April-June to 18,850 units from 13,720 units in the corresponding period of the previous year. Delhi-NCR market includes Gurugram, Noida, Greater Noida, Ghaziabad and Faridabad while MMR includes Mumbai, Navi Mumbai and Thane. REA India Head of Research Ankita Sood noted that MMR and Pune contributed 61 per cent to total housing sales across 8 cities. Demand in localities such as Thane West and Dombivali in Mumbai and Charholi Budruk and Hadapsar in Pune have been high, she said. In terms of new housing supply, PropTiger reported that launches increased 11 per cent to 1,13,770 units during the April-June from 1,02,140 units in the corresponding period of the previous year.

Mumbai, Feb 25 () Toll road firm IRB Infrastructure Developers on Tuesday said it has bagged a contract for operating and collecting toll on Mumbai-Pune Expressway project under the toll-operate-toll model. The company has received a letter of acceptance (LoA) from Maharashtra State Road Development Corporation (MSRDC) for a period of 10 years and two months. The concession includes collection of toll and operation and maintenance activities on the expressway and old Mumbai-Pune highway NH-48 for the period up to April 30, 2030, the company said in a statement. As per the contract, IRB will have to pay Rs 8,262 crore to MSRDC for the rights for collecting toll, which would include an upfront payment of Rs 6,500 crore and a further staggered payment of Rs 850 crore each in second year and third year, and Rs 62 crore in fourth year. "The company will take possession of the project from March 1, 2020 and commence tolling and O&amp;M activities," IRB said. Commenting on the development, company's chairman and managing director Virendra Mhaiskar said, "We had managed this project for 15 years from 2004 to 2019 and hence we feel that it will help us in managing the project well and meet the expectations of all stakeholders." During the earlier concession period, IRB had paid Rs 918 crore to MSRDC for bagging the project. After the concession agreement lapsed in August last year, MSRDC had handed over toll collection on the stretch on temporary basis to Sahkar Global. Meanwhile, toll rates on the expressway are expected to increase from April 1 for three years after the appointment of new concessionaire. As per a government notification, the new toll rates for cars will increase from Rs 230 to Rs 270, while for mini buses it will go up from Rs 355 to Rs 420 for trucks, and it will rise from Rs 493 to Rs 580 for heavy axle vehicles. For buses, it will increase from Rs 675 to Rs 797, and for large trucks it will rise from Rs 1,165-1,555 to Rs 1,380-1,835. PSK RVK

New Delhi, Jan 22 () Delhi-NCR, Mumbai and Pune are the three biggest markets for student housing in the country, and these cities require an additional 4.75 lakh beds from organised co-living operators to meet the current demand, according to a report.
 Cushman &amp; Wakefield (C&amp;W), in association with the Student Accommodation Providers Forum of India (SAPFI), on Wednesday released a report "Exploring the Student Housing Universe in India City Insights".
 The report has identified education clusters in the cities of Bengaluru, Delhi-NCR and Pune, the three biggest markets for professionally managed student accommodation (PMSA) operators.
 The report estimated 9.08 million migrant students in India, amounting to over 24 per cent of 37 million total student enrolments in the country's higher educational institutions (HEIs) for the year 2018-19. 
 "Delhi-NCR with 7.45 lakh students enrolled in HEIs as of 2018-19 has 50 per cent outstation students. There is demand for additional 2.5 lakh beds from PMSA operators," it said. 
 Bengaluru has the highest number of HEIs in India with student enrolments estimated at 5.38 lakh. 
 With 60 per cent outstation students, additional demand currently stands at around 92,000 beds, the report said. 
 In Pune, the report said student enrolment stood at nearly 4 lakh. With 60 per cent outstation students, additional capacity requirements in PMSA segment is 1.33 lakh beds.
 Anshul Jain, Country Head and Managing Director-India, Cushman and Wakefield, said: "The significant mass of migrant students in the higher education sector today demand and expect quality student accommodation facilities providing food, security and a range of amenities. While globally, PMSA has found its footing as part of the mainstream real estate sector, in India it is still in a nascent stage."
 With policy support and private investments, Jain said the student housing segment could be the next growth driver in the overall realty sector. 
 Kaushal Mahan, Convenor, SAPFI, said, "The sector is expected to witness a huge amount of foreign direct investment inflows resulting in job creation and economic development."
 Mahan said this segment requires encouragement from the government for building a favourable policy ecosystem. MJH ANS

The company is also working with 25 Indians, including two Indian companies, to build the transportation system, which involves shooting tubes in a vacuum chamber across vast distances-Hyperloop. 
 
"There are two Indian companies working with us. One is a maker of the tubes, another is an engineering company. I can't name them right now though. But in total we have about 25 people from India working on the Hyperloop,” Gresta told ET. 
 
According to Gresta, India planning on spending thousands of crores to build bullet trains to boost the country's transportation infrastructure is a bad idea. 
 
"You are going to spend $12 billion on a bullet train? Put $1 billion in hyperloop and you will never need a bullet train, he told ET. 
 
He also said that India needs hyperloop because of the bad conditions transportation. 
 
"I think India is a perfect country to implement this project because the roads are not that good. Here the transportation is not capable to sustain a growth in a country like India," he said. 
 Among the prominent cities and countries where the Hyperloop will be built are California, Utah, Illinois, Florida, Indianapolis, Canada, Mexico, Chile, Spain, France, Slovakia, Abu Dhabi, Dubai, Saudi Arabia, Botswana, South <keyword id="12925" type="ENTERTAINMENT" weightage="20" keywordseo="Africa">Africa</keyword>, Russia, China, Malaysia, India, Indonesia and Australia.

Cutting down 3 hours of travel time to just 25 minutes is something that you imagine only an aircraft can do. The Hyperloop project makes it possible on-ground. Not only is this surreal, but <keyword id="3658" type="COUNTRY" weightage="20" keywordseo="India">India</keyword> could potentially be the first country to boast of a Hyperloop system in the entire world. Elon Musk’s brainchild, the futuristic transport system could be a reality in the next five to seven years. The <keyword id="182673" type="COMPANY" weightage="20" keywordseo="Virgin-Group">Virgin Group</keyword> just signed an ‘intent agreement’ with the Maharashtra Government to connect Pune to Mumbai using the Hyperloop transportation system. Currently, the trip takes three hours if you take the expressway, but with the Hyperloop in place, it won’t be more than 25 minutes. But what is Hyperloop and how can it claim to achieve such a feat? The wonder that is Hyperloop Hyperloop is basically an innovative transport system that uses magnetic levitation (maglev) to transport a pod on the surface through a sealed tube. It’s conceptualised that these pods should be able to reach speeds up to 1000km/hr. Originally designed by SpaceX and Tesla, the project was then made open-source so that anyone could build on it and utilise the <keyword id="6355118" type="ENTERTAINMENT" weightage="20" keywordseo="technology">technology</keyword>. The reason these pods will able to travel so fast is due to the application of the vactrain concept. These capsules will be shooting with a vacuum tube (airless) allowing for speeds that could theoretically go up to 1200km/hr. So far the main obstacle in building these routes has been the high cost of maglev and the difficulty of maintaining a steady vacuum over long distances. The <a href="https://www.digit.in/general/meet-hyperloop-india-the-team-building-a-hyperloop-pod-right-here-in-india-33957.html" data-type="tilCustomLink">Hyperloop India</a> team, when participating in the Hyperloop One Global Challenge said that it would be better to use aluminium rather than fibre to build the pods because it would be more scalable that way. The route will be fully electric but the project will only take off after a six-month in-depth feasibility study has been conducted. This is essential in order to define the route alignment, environmental impact, economic and commercial viability in line with the cost and funding models that will be applied. The <a href="https://www.businessinsider.in/Transport-Blogger-Ridicules-The-Hyperloop-Says-It-Will-Cost-A-Fortune-And-Be-A-Terrifying-Barf-Ride/articleshow/21939118.cms" data-type="tilCustomLink">critique</a> of Hyperloop is that the possibility of an unpleasant and frightening experience happening in a narrow, sealed and windowless capsule is high. Being subject to significant acceleration and high noise levels as the capsule reaches near sonic speeds leaves a lot of people apprehensive about its usability. <a href="https://www.theverge.com/2013/8/16/4626506/speed-bumps-and-vomit-are-the-hyperloops-biggest-challenges" data-type="tilCustomLink">Critics</a> even state that despite the tube intently to run as smoothly as possible, all it will take a slight shift in the ground due to seismic activity, and the minor deviation could result in considerable buffeting. Despite this, the Hyperloop India team claims that it shouldn’t be that different from riding in an aircraft. They maintain that there’s a difference between velocity and acceleration. Acceleration is what you feel as the plane takes off, but once you’re in the air, you hardly notice that you’re moving. Riding in a vacuum tube should be akin to that. Virgin Hyperloop and the Government of Maharashtra "We have signed an agreement with Maharashtra to build a Virgin Hyperloop between Mumbai and Pune, beginning with an operational demonstration track in the region," stated <keyword id="58954" type="PERSON" weightage="20" keywordseo="Richard-Branson">Richard Branson</keyword>, the Virgin Group chairman at the first day of the Magnetic Maharashtra investor summit in Mumbai. He added that "The proposed Hyperloop transportation system will transform the transportation system and make Maharashtra a global pioneer in the space. The socioeconomic benefits of the project is $55 billion (Rs. 3,54,750 crore),” claiming that the venture would create thousands of jobs. Details such as the project cost and a timeline are yet to be announced. Considering that the Hyperloop hasn’t yet become commercially operational anywhere in the world, India is competing against Dubai for the first spot. Branson maintains that the Pune-Mumbai route is the “ideal first corridor” as part of a national network that will be based entirely on Hyperloop technology. (Image courtesy: INMA/Jarle Naustvik)
