These state-level elections are viewed as a key indicator of the likely direction for future business and policy reform.

Sarv Shakti, a Marshall Islands-flagged ship chartered by state-run Indian Oil Corporation, is expected to offload 46.3k tons of LPG at Visakhapatnam port in southern India next week, as per a <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.pib.gov.in\/PressReleasePage.aspx?PRID=2257633&&reg=3&lang=2\" style=\"\">press release<\/a>. <\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>How it navigated the chokepoint:<\/strong> The vessel sailed close to Iran\u2019s Larak island \u2014 adhering to a specific transit corridor prescribed by Tehran for safe passage through the strait, <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/indianexpress.com\/article\/explained\/explained-economics\/strait-hormuz-india-lpg-tanker-sarv-shakti-10667444\/\" style=\"\">Indian Express<\/a> reports. <\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>The backstory:<\/strong> The movement of India-bound shipping had been severely disrupted since 18 April, when the Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) navy fired upon an Indian vessel in the wake of the US blockade. Prior to that escalation, 10 flagged energy shipments had successfully crossed the Strait, a breakthrough achieved following high-level diplomatic negotiations between New Delhi and Tehran, alongside direct on-the-ground coordination with the IRGC. <\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>Why it matters: <\/strong>While the successful crossing provides a narrow window of relief for India\u2019s strained LPG supplies, broader tanker movement through the Strait of Hormuz remains heavily constrained. This ongoing bottleneck leaves half of the country's cooking-fuel imports highly exposed to further delays and logistical volatility.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\">\n<hr style=\"height:2px;border-width:0;color:gray;background-color:gray\">\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"> <a id=\"wwtt2\"><\/a><strong> AVIATION \u2014 <\/strong><strong>Indian<\/strong><strong> carriers \u2014 Air India, Air India Express, IndiGo, and SpiceJet \u2014 reduced nearly 25% of their weekly international flights in May, cancelling over 1k services<\/strong>, amid disruptions linked to the US-Iran-Israel war and restrictions on using Pakistan\u2019s airspace, <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.business-standard.com\/industry\/aviation\/west-asia-conflict-indian-carriers-cut-25-weekly-int-l-flights-in-may-126050300395_1.html\" style=\"\">Business Standard<\/a> reports, citing Cirium data. <\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>Why it matters:<\/strong> Airspace <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/enterpriseam.com\/mena-india\/2026\/04\/17\/tourism-and-hospitality-take-a-hit-as-the-regional-war-drives-up-costs\/\" style=\"\">closures due to the Iran war<\/a> are forcing airlines to navigate longer routes, sharply increasing fuel burn.

The Emirates \u201cremains our primary focus. We\u2019ve invested significantly, but there\u2019s still considerable headroom, especially in product depth, technology, and accessibility,\u201d CEO of Policybazaar UAE Neeraj Gupta tells EnterpriseAM.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>\u201cExpansion beyond the UAE will come when we see the right [opening]<\/strong>,\u201d Gupta said. The UAE business has been consistently profitable and grew <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.business-standard.com\/markets\/news\/pb-fintech-share-zooms-5-on-robust-q2-insurance-growth-buy-sell-or-hold-125103000197_1.html\" style=\"\">64% y-o-y<\/a> in 2Q FY 2026 (July-September). The approach indicates confidence in the region even as global firms continue to reassess exposure amid geopolitical risks.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>What they do: <\/strong>PB Fintech, the Gurugram-based parent firm which operates Policybazaar and Paisabazaar, offers comparison and distribution of health, life, and motor ins., alongside credit products. The company rolled out UAE operations in 2018 with funds <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/timesofindia.indiatimes.com\/business\/india-business\/policybazaar-gets-75-million-from-falcon-edge-for-uae-biz\/articleshow\/81554769.cms\" style=\"\">raised<\/a> in 2021. In the UAE, it has localized this model through insurer partnerships and diaspora-focused health plans while expanding into credit aggregation.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>IN CONTEXT- <\/strong>PB Fintech invested around AED 12 mn (USD 3.2 mn) into its UAE arm, Genesis Group, <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/enterpriseam.com\/mena-india\/2026\/04\/01\/pb-fintech-deploys-ipo-proceeds-into-uae-unit-to-expand-overseas\/\" style=\"\">deploying its India IPO proceeds earmarked for overseas expansion<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>Building a corridor product: <\/strong>While the UAE business initially mirrored Policybazaar\u2019s India model, it is increasingly evolving into a cross-border proposition. Motor, health, and life ins. remain the company\u2019s core lines in the UAE. Health and motor contribute the bulk of revenues, while life ins. is the fastest-growing segment.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>\u201cThe Indian diaspora is a natural starting point.<\/strong> They are a large demographic and already aware of our brand,\u201d Gupta tells us, adding that the company is now seeing an uptick in traction from other nationalities, including Arab and European expats. This diaspora demand is reflected in product design, with offerings tailored to cross-border mobility, including health ins. plans that provide continuity and portability back to India.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>Credit push gains traction: <\/strong>PB Fintech is also expanding beyond ins. through Paisabazaar, its credit marketplace launched in the UAE in February last year. \u201cThe UAE is a multi-card, offer-driven market, and a key focus this year is scaling unsecured lending,\u201d said Gupta. Unlike India\u2019s underpenetrated credit ecosystem, the UAE presents a more mature, competitive landscape, requiring bank-led partnerships and sharper pricing to acquire customers.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>No war-driven premium inflation: <\/strong>\u201cWe haven\u2019t seen any premium increases linked to the conflict, and we don\u2019t expect that in the near term,\u201d Gupta says. He notes a shift in consumer behavior: interest in protection products like term ins. has increased in the aftermath of the war, while investment-linked products have slowed.

It is a secure offshore setup where databases, servers, and cloud systems are hosted in a foreign country while remaining under the complete sovereign control of the home country. The model is designed to keep essential digital services online even if domestic infrastructure faces a catastrophic disruption, Sagar Vishnoi, co-founder and director at Future Shift Labs, tells EnterpriseAM. <\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>\u201cIt\u2019s basically like creating a secure repository of strategic information<\/strong> \u2014 like an extension of a country\u2019s digital infrastructure in another geography, so that even in case of disruption, the data and governance systems continue,\u201d Vishnoi tells us.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>The proposal slots neatly into a broader bilateral push spanning AI, emerging technologies, and supercomputing. <\/strong>The UAE's aggressive digital infrastructure build-out, heavy investments in data centers, and advanced AI ecosystem \u2014 bolstered by institutions like the Mohamed bin Zayed University of Artificial Intelligence \u2014 make it an ideal partner for India, Vishnoi noted.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>\u201cThis is a win-win situation for both countries.<\/strong> A data embassy is a relatively new concept \u2014 where a country\u2019s data, like cloud systems, databases, and secure infrastructure, can be hosted in another country under specific compliance and policy frameworks,\u201d Vishnoi says.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>Working out the rules of the road:<\/strong> The two nations have agreed to explore these data embassies under \u201cmutually recognized sovereignty arrangements,\u201d <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.mea.gov.in\/bilateral-documents.htm?dtl\/40601\/Joint_Statement_Visit_of_President_of_the_UAE_His_Highness_Sheikh_Mohamed_bin_Zayed_Al_Nahyan_to_India_January_19_2026\" style=\"\">according to India's Ministry of External Affairs<\/a>. <\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>If the concept takes off, it will drive massive demand for data centers, cloud storage, and cross-border cybersecurity solutions.<\/strong> \u201cThere will likely be a surge in demand for data centers, cloud storage, cybersecurity services, and cross-border data management solutions,\u201d Vishnoi says, highlighting that digital infrastructure is becoming part of international economic engagement, \u201csimilar to how trade or energy corridors work.\u201d<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>The scale of ambition: <\/strong>The broader bilateral tech partnership targets an immense 8 exaflops of compute capacity alongside the 2 GW data center build-out. Feasibility studies are slated to wrap up by mid-2026, paving the way for groundbreaking in early 2027, with Phase 1 operations targeted for 2028.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>Building out this infrastructure won't be cheap or easy.<\/strong> Tier-4, AI-ready data centers cost roughly USD 11.3 mn per MW to construct. Meanwhile, high-end sovereign hardware \u2014 like advanced graphics processing units (GPUs) and specialized cooling systems \u2014 is facing severe supply chain bottlenecks, with lead times stretching up to 18 months.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>Then there's the regulatory framework.<\/strong> Both nations will have to navigate a complex maze of jurisdiction, access rights, security standards, and dispute resolution mechanisms. Aligning India\u2019s Digital Personal Data Protection Act with the UAE\u2019s distinct data frameworks will be a critical first step.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>\u201cThe idea is that even though the infrastructure is physically located in another country<\/strong>, the data remains under the home country\u2019s sovereignty and is protected from host-country interference,\" Vishnoi says. \"But these are things that both governments \u2014 especially external affairs ministries \u2014 will need to work out in detail.\u201d<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>What\u2019s next? <\/strong>The proposal remains early-stage and will depend on whether India and the UAE can agree on jurisdiction, access rights, cybersecurity standards, and sovereign protections. If it moves forward, data embassies could add a new digital layer to the India-UAE economic corridor.<\/p>\n\t<\/div><!-- .entry-content -->\n\n\t\n<\/article><!-- #post-${ID} -->\n\n\n    <div

style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"> <strong>US protectionism is pushing the rest of the world to rewire trade \u2014 and the <\/strong><strong>USD 22 <\/strong><strong>tn EU-Mercosur agreement makes that shift concrete.<\/strong> The <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/apnews.com\/article\/european-union-mercosur-trade-deal-571f8814c51667650cc7fa3e0a754b10\" style=\"\">agreement<\/a> between the European Union and Mercosur went live provisionally on 1 May, linking 720 mn consumers into the largest freetrade area by population after more than 25 years of negotiations.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>The Mercosur agreement will gradually remove tariffs on most industrial and agricultural goods while shielding politically sensitive sectors like beef, poultry, sugar, and fruit. <\/strong>Framed by Brazilian President Luiz In\u00e1cio Lula da Silva as a direct response to US President Donald Trump\u2019s tariffs and \u201ca reaffirmation of multilateralism,\u201d the agreement is expected to deliver relatively <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.politico.eu\/article\/eu-mercosur-deal-takes-effect-but-the-fight-goes-on\/\" style=\"\">modest economic gains<\/a> despite its scale. The next phase of this agreement is likely to show up in investment flows, not just trade volumes.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>How?<\/strong> By lowering barriers and aligning rules, it gives European firms a clearer path into South America\u2019s supply chains \u2014 especially in areas like mineral processing, where China has <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.statista.com\/chart\/35398\/china-dominant-share-in-global-mining-production-of-critical-minerals\/?srsltid=AfmBOoojr1q03ZMta9to5xXBOYWHHTOgGi7UDVMySbBAo2h66xQFXmQK\" style=\"\">long dominated investment<\/a>. As competition for resources tied to energy and industrial policy intensifies, countries are responding to a more protectionist US stance by deepening ties elsewhere. <\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>Why does it matter? <\/strong>The agreement pulls the EU into that competition, expanding its role from trade partner to long-term investor in mining, processing, and infrastructure. Ongoing talks with <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.reuters.com\/world\/china\/eu-kickstarts-mercosur-pact-counter-us-trade-hit-2026-04-30\/\" style=\"\">India, Indonesia, and Australia<\/a> reflect a wider effort to stay involved in shaping trade and investment as global rules weaken and countries increasingly turn to region-to-region agreements.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>Companies are already positioning around that shift. <\/strong>South American agribusinesses \u2014 from beef and fruit to minerals \u2014 are looking to expand exports into Europe, while European automakers, pharma firms, and tech companies are targeting growth and investment prospects in Mercosur. <\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>Where the risks lie: <\/strong>The agreement is not fully locked in \u2014 Ursula von der Leyen moved to enact it provisionally without full parliamentary approval, triggering a possible court challenge at the EU\u2019s judiciary. If the court rules against it, the agreement could be halted, raising questions over long-term investment flows and the EU\u2019s credibility. Even so, markets like Mercosur are unlikely to fully replace lost trade with Washington, underscoring that this is more about diversification than substitution.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>The bottom line:<\/strong> Beyond beef quotas, this is about supply chains, capital allocation, and geopolitical positioning. As US protectionism reshapes global trade, blocs like EU-Mercosur are moving to redirect flows of goods, capital, and influence \u2014 if judicial challenges don\u2019t derail it.<\/p>\n<p class=\"tag-border-left\">MARKETS THIS MORNING- <\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>Asia-Pacific markets were up in early trading this morning<\/strong>, led by South Korea\u2019s Kospi, which is up over 3.6%. Japan\u2019s Nikkei is closed today in observance of Greenery Day.
