**A state-owned electrical-equipment maker and a private rail-systems company just signed up for 35 years together.** BHEL and Titagarh Rail Systems formed a 50:50 joint venture to maintain 80 Vande Bharat trainsets for the next three and a half decades — the kind of multi-decade lock-in that's rare even by infrastructure standards. Elsewhere: an auto-components maker committed ₹1,415 crore across four expansions in one press release, and a newly listed jewellery retailer's first quarterly disclosure as a public company quietly made a pricing-power argument worth a closer look on its own.

## The one to read first

**BHEL and Titagarh Rail Systems** executed a Joint Venture Agreement on 15 September to form a 50:50-owned JV company that will handle ["Manufacturing cum Maintenance of 80 Vande Bharat Trainsets including Upgradation of Government Manufacturing Units & Trainset Depots and Comprehensive Maintenance for 35 years."](https://nsearchives.nseindia.com/corporate/TWL%5F15092026162116%5FStockExchangeintimationJVAwithBHEL15092026Final.pdf) Titagarh's own filing frames it as "an opportunity to establish a long-term presence in the maintenance and lifecycle-support segment of the railway industry," extending its participation "across the rolling stock value chain from manufacturing to long-term maintenance and lifecycle support." Both counterparties filed matching disclosures the same day — BHEL's own intimation confirms the same JV terms independently.

## Pricing power, in a company's own words

**Lalithaa Jewellery Mart** — first-quarter results as a newly listed company — disclosed that gold-price-driven inventory gains, which had been propping up reported margins, [declined by over 90% year-on-year](https://nsearchives.nseindia.com/corporate/LALITHAAJEWELLERY1985%5F15092026180928%5Fdisclosure%5Funder%5Fregulation%5F30%5Fof%5FLODR.pdf) this quarter as gold prices stabilized. Despite losing that tailwind, the company's "Core Gross Margin - representing the margin generated from making charges- improved by 20 bps year-on-year," which management attributes to making-charge revisions "implemented in Q4 FY2026 and towards the end of Q1 FY2027." Revenue grew 26% year-on-year on 5 new stores (61 to 66) since April. *A full breakdown of what this filing actually demonstrates about pricing power is up as a separate piece — see [Lalithaa Jewellery Raised Its Making Charges. The Margin Held Anyway.](https://www.moatmarginresearch.com/lalithaa-jewellery-pricing-power/).*

## Expansion and capital commitments

**Uno Minda** announced four simultaneous capacity expansions — a greenfield aluminium-casting facility at Hosur (\~₹510 crore) among them — with a [combined proposed investment of approximately ₹1,415 crore](https://nsearchives.nseindia.com/corporate/MINDAIND1%5F15092026102559%5FPress%5Frelease4%5FNew%5FProject%5FSept%5F2026.pdf) across Two-Wheeler Alloy Wheels, Aluminium Casting, Moulding, and Interior/Exterior Parts and Sealing Systems, citing sustained OEM demand.

**Muthoot Microfin** raised [₹250 crore through non-convertible debentures](https://nsearchives.nseindia.com/corporate/muthootmicrofin%5F15092026075737%5FPressReleaseSep152026SD.pdf) to fund its growth plans.

**GTPL Hathway** completed its previously announced (23 June 2026) acquisition of the cable-television business from seven ACT Group companies, at an [aggregate cash consideration of ₹35.55 crore](https://nsearchives.nseindia.com/corporate/GTPLHL%5F15092026164842%5FDisclosure%5FReg%5F30%5FAcqusition%5FACT%5FGroup%5F-%5FCompletion%5F1509.pdf).

## Adverse and flagged

**Salasar Techno Engineering** disclosed a Provisional Attachment Order dated 12 September from the Enforcement Directorate under the Prevention of Money Laundering Act, attaching [₹98.31 crore of the company's immovable property](https://www.bseindia.com/xml-data/corpfiling/AttachLive/41d568f1-7b36-4634-9ee8-5ac1ccbe2e0b.pdf) — including part of its Bhilai manufacturing plant — for 180 days. This follows an ED search at the Chairman's and Managing Director's residences in April 2025; today's filing is the first disclosed material consequence of that investigation.

**India Home Loan** disclosed the cessation of two Independent Directors from the board, flagged for follow-up rather than asserted as adverse on its own.

## Corporate actions and leadership changes

Same-day filings from both sides also confirmed **TCS** will "accelerate AI-led technology transformation" for Germany's Aareal Bank, under a press release that named the client and scope but not a deal value. **Tilaknagar Industries** made its first tranche payment toward an investment in Black Tiger Distilleries. **Mobavenue AI Tech** had its wholly-owned-subsidiary merger scheme approved. **Ashoka Buildcon** extended the completion deadline on a subsidiary stake sale.

Leadership changes crossed several boards: **Blue Dart Express** disclosed its Managing Director's resignation effective 29 November; **Vedant Fashions (Manyavar)** and **Puravankara** each saw a CFO/KMP resignation; **Yes Bank**'s Chief Vigilance Officer's cessation was disclosed; **Alkem Laboratories** appointed a new Senior Management Personnel.

## Also filed, thinner on detail

A large share of today's 102-filing MEDIUM/HIGH queue was procedural: SAST Regulation 10(5)/10(6)/29(2) shareholding-disclosure filings (Aakash Exploration, Aaron Industries, Asian Hotels (West), HLE Glascoat, IZMO, Shiva Texyarn, Silgo Retail, SRF's promoter entity, and others) that named a stake movement without disclosing size or price in the filing summary; a cluster of routine AGM/EGM voting-result and scrutiniser's-report filings (BlueStone, Fineotex Chemical, Sigachi Industries, Swadeshi Industries); and standard KMP/director appointment-or-resignation notices with no further detail (Aryaman Financial, Kings Infra, Shekhawati Industries, ZF Commercial Vehicle Control Systems, and several more) — each would need the underlying PDF to say anything concrete beyond the change itself.
