THE HINDU Editorial -Vocabulary- NOVEMBER 8 , 2017

Corporate earnings show a mild recovery, but valuations remain a major concern India Inc.’s earnings performance for the second quarter of the financial year has turned out to be largely in line with street expectations .

This will formalise his  de facto   position as the leader of India’s largest opposition party, which is struggling to stitch together a national-level alternative to the resurgent BJP, under the Amit Shah-Narendra M...
