I bought an apartment in 2022 with a home loan. This year, I have sold equity mutual fund (MF) holdings with gains of about ₹ 60 lakh. Can I use the capital gains to pay off the home loan and get an exemption under Section 54F? I own just this one house, fulfilling the 54F condition. In your case, as the property was acquired in 2022, it would not satisfy this condition and, therefore, the exemption would not be available.

Thailand's parliament will hold a session on March 19 to vote on a new prime minister, House Speaker Sophon Zaram said on Monday, following last month's general election. Caretaker Prime Minister Anutin Charnvirakul is seeking to be voted back to office by the new parliament after his Bhumjaithai Party won a clear victory in the February 8 election. ADVERTISEMENTThai King Maha Vajiralongkorn opened parliament on Saturday, as last month's general election result faces court scrutiny over barcodes on the ballots that may have violated the law. The court annulled a 2006 election on the grounds that the voting process had not been conducted in secret. The Election Commission has said the barcodes were included for security purposes and that identifying a voter would require access to the upper half of the ballots, which were securely stored.

In many ways, the Narendra Modi government’s move to shift the North and South block offices is a historical correction, a shedding of the colonial mindset. The imposing North and South blocks were conceived as symbols of imperial power, meant to dominate visually and psychologically. The relocation of the Prime Minister’s Office to Seva Teerth and other offices to Kartavya Bhavan may, at first glance, appear procedural. When institutions move from structures built to signify imperial dominance to spaces named after seva and kartavya, the transition asks something of us. It is a historical shift whose deeper importance will unfold in the history written for a modern, Viksit Bharat.

The war in West Asia has disrupted India’s livestock exports to Gulf countries that are heavily dependent on meat from India, leading to shipment delays and cancellations. “With livestock exports to the region estimated at $2.3-$2.5 billion in FY25, the sector remains closely linked to stability in West Asia.”Gulati said the livestock sector is highly sensitive to grain and fertiliser prices. As of mid-March 2026, effective export volumes reaching West Asia have contracted sharply because of escalating conflict in the Red Sea and the Strait of Hormuz, he said. “Since the disruption of key shipping lanes in early 2026, industry reports suggest a 15-20% drop in immediate shipment fulfilments to West Asia,” Gulati said. Shipping lines have also imposed “contingency surcharges” of up to $4,000 per 40-foot container on shipments to West Asia, exporters said.

The Haryana government on Monday informed the Supreme Court that it has decided not to grant sanction to prosecute Ashoka University professor Ali Khan Mahmudabad over his social media posts on Operation Sindoor, saying it was showing “one-time magnanimity” in the matter. ADVERTISEMENT"Showing one-time magnanimity, we have closed the issue and have refused to grant sanction," Raju told the bench. Taking note of the submission, the bench said that since the state had not granted sanction to prosecute Mahmudabad, the proceedings pending before the concerned trial court would stand closed. On January 6, the apex court had extended its order restraining the trial court from taking cognisance of the chargesheet filed by the Haryana SIT in the FIR against Mahmudabad. The FIRs — one based on a complaint by Haryana State Commission for Women chairperson Renu Bhatia and another by a village sarpanch — were lodged by Rai police in Sonipat district.

President Donald Trump said Sunday that he has demanded about seven countries send warships to keep the Strait of Hormuz open, but his appeals have brought no commitments as oil prices soar during the Iran war. Trump said China gets about 90% of its oil from the strait, while the U.S. gets a minimal amount. Trump didn't directly answer whether his administration is talking about selling oil futures as a way to cap surging oil prices. In just 10 days, more than 800,000 people - nearly one out of every seven residents of Lebanon - have been displaced. Israel's military says Iran is firing cluster bombs that can evade some air defenses and scatter submunitions across multiple locations.

US President Donald Trump has stated that Tehran maintains a strong desire to "negotiate badly", though he suggested the Iranian leadership is not yet prepared to meet American conditions. We are doing very well with respect to the whole situation in Iran," Trump noted. The President further asserted that the Iranian military has been so heavily damaged that it would take the country a decade to rebuild. Trump maintained that US military operations have "essentially defeated Iran" by eliminating its air forces and air defence systems. Araghchi defended Iranian strikes on US military assets in Gulf countries and vowed that Tehran would continue its military actions until the US concludes what he described as an "illegal war".

Hours before the Election Commission of India on Sunday announced the two-phase schedule for the Bengal Assembly election, several poll aspirants from different parties began their grassroots outreach. None of the major political formations has yet released its list of candidates for the Assembly elections. Still, many from the Trinamool Congress, CPM and BJP were seen stepping up public meetings even amid uncertainty over nominations. In Nadia’s Chakdaha Assembly seat, Trinamool youth leader Jishu Singha — son of veteran party leader and former MLA Sankar Singha — met people amid strong buzz that he might get a party ticket. In Sonarpur South, MLA Lovely Moitra led a large bike rally despite uncertainty surrounding her renomination over factionalism.

In the aftermath of the war in West Asia, crude oil prices surged to as high as $118 a barrel last week. However, the global oil market is once again operating under a profound geopolitical shadow. Currently, however, the impact on physical supply is so drastic that prices continue to climb without a visible peak. Global oil demand still exceeds 105 million barrels per day, and petrochemicals account for a rising share of incremental consumption. Geopolitics will continue to influence oil prices by shaping perceptions of safety, reliability, and continuity, as well as affecting the physical flow of oil.
