PTC Industries setting up Rs 300-cr titanium recycling plant in Lucknow

Engineering component manufacturer PTC Industries is investing Rs 300 crore to set up a titanium recycling plant in Lucknow as it eyes to be an aerospace and defence supplier. PTC Industries is a high-precision metal components provider for super-critical industrial applications, including defence and aerospace companies. Its chairman and managing director Sachin Agarwal said the proposed capex is over and above the ongoing Rs 350-crore expansion at its titanium casting plant, and that the new investment will purely serve the aerospace and defence industry. "We have a 50-acre campus near the Brahmos facility, which already is our customer, in the Lucknow Defence Corridor. The proposed titanium recycling facility will be the first of its kind plant in the private sector in the country," Agarwal told PTI here on Friday. The proposed facility, which will come up over the next three to four years, will recycle the waste generated by the aerospace industry while making titanium ...

Kohli vs Gambhir: Old baggages lead to another round of 'juvenile' bust-up

The ugly bust-up between Gautam Gambhir and Virat Kohli was quintessentially Delhi and waiting to happen. Both don't believe in pulling punches and have been carrying their own baggages of mutual dislike for each other. During their latest face-off, there was liberal use of the north Indian profanity which sounds similar to the name of English cricketer 'Ben Stokes'. Opinions are divided among those who were present after the IPL game between Royal Challengers Bangalore and Lucknow Super Giants on Monday night, when the altercation took place between the two World Cup-winning players. Some found it juvenile, a few others liked the spice and the idea of intense rivalry, while the firm believers of the 'Gentlemen's Game' thought it could have been avoided. So what happened in Lucknow on Monday night? An eyewitness, who was in one of the team dug-outs, gave a lowdown of events to PTI. "You saw on TV that Mayers and Virat were walking side by side for a few metres post match. Mayers
