Paras Healthcare Ltd. has revived plans for an initial public offering and hired three banks for a share sale that could raise as much as $200 million, according to people familiar with the matter. The Gurugram-based hospital chain has appointed JM Financial Ltd., BofA Securities and Nuvama Wealth Management Ltd. as advisers for the proposed listing, the people said, asking not to be identified as the information is private. Paras Healthcare had previously filed draft papers for an IPO in July 2024 and received approval from the Securities and Exchange Board of India in October that year. The company, however, did not proceed with the listing, and the approval lapsed in October 2025. The hospital chain has replaced all the bankers who advised them in 2024. Deliberations are ongoing and details such as the size of the offering could still change, the people said. Representatives for Paras Healthcare and the three banks didn’t respond to requests for comment. A recent selloff in Indian equities following the outbreak of war in the Middle East has added to challenges for companies seeking to go public, raising the prospect of a slowdown in issuance after two record-breaking years. Indian IPOs have raised about $1.8 billion so far this quarter, compared with $2.3 billion in the same period last year, according to data compiled by Bloomberg. Founded in 2006 with its first hospital in Gurugram, the company now operates eight multi-super specialty hospitals under the Paras Health brand. Its IPO would add to a growing number of deals in Asia’s health-care industry, including an offering by Malaysia’s Sunway Healthcare Bhd., which raised 2.86 billion ringgit ($731 million). Other Asian companies in the industry planning share sales include Aier Eye Hospital Group Co. , China’s biggest chain of eye hospitals, and India’s General Atlantic-backed ASG Hospital Pvt . Medline Inc., which manufactures and distributes medical supplies, last year went public in a $7.2 billion US IPO,...

At the time, Amy Hunt was worried that her words might be bleeped out by the BBC. But, while she may no longer feel able to wear the T-shirt which inspired her "corny" spur-of-the-moment quote, it has since become clear that the impact was worth the sacrifice. Shortly after completing her long-anticipated rise to a first individual global podium by sprinting to world 200m silver in Tokyo, the 23-year-old, caught in an adrenaline-fuelled daze, brilliantly summarised the demanding path she had taken to get there. The University of Cambridge graduate proclaimed to all young girls watching on BBC TV: "You can be an academic badass and a track goddess." "As soon as I said it, I was like, 'oh my gosh, I'm on the BBC'. I was like, 'are they going to bleep that out?' I feel so bad," says Hunt. "I was so incredibly high with adrenaline and endorphins that there wasn't a connection between my brain and my mouth. All I remembered was that I had this T-shirt that said 'Goddess' on it, so that flashed into my mind. "I feel like I can't wear that T-shirt because it's too corny to wear now."

Thailand ’s new parliament elected Anutin Charnvirakul as prime minister on Thursday, keeping the conservative in the top office after his party routed its election rivals with a nationalist campaign. The Southeast Asian nation’s next government will have to handle the fallout from the Middle East conflict, sluggish economic growth and lingering border tensions with neighbour Cambodia. “I hope to remain in my position to serve the people for as long as I can,” Anutin told reporters ahead of the parliamentary vote on Thursday. Advertisement “Those who know me understand that whenever there is a problem affecting the public, I will respond immediately to their needs.” Anutin’s pro-military and pro-monarchy Bhumjaithai party had its best electoral performance ever in February after two rounds of deadly border clashes with Cambodia last year.

The manager of a top-performing European equity fund said the pullback in markets since the start of the war in Iran has allowed her to pick up under-the-radar stocks at deeper discounts. Camilla Anderson , who runs Overseas Asset Management Cayman Ltd. ’s European fund, said she bought more shares of beverage group Laurent-Perrier . Most of her bigger holdings, including fertilizer firm Yara International ASA and shipper Wilh Wilhelmsen Holding ASA have outperformed the fund’s benchmark in March. Her fund has returned 56% in dollar terms in 2025 and beaten 98% of peers over the past five years. “Having a diversified portfolio means there are a few stocks which reacted pretty positively,” she said. “We’ve got a decent cash position, so that we can continue to take advantage of these opportunities.” The turmoil unleashed by the conflict in the Middle East has sent global stocks tumbling as investors trimmed their exposure to riskier assets. While European stocks have lost more than 5% over the period, Anderson said the volatility has offered her an opportunity to invest when valuations get dragged down. “There’s always plenty of risk,” Anderson said, “But being stock pickers, that’s what really gives us the margin of safety. That’s something we think is quite unique, as opposed to taking a bit more of a blanket approach.” Anderson’s fund has returned 71% since the beginning of 2024 through Jan. 31 this year, according to data compiled by Bloomberg. Among her 10 biggest holdings at the end of December, only Standard Chartered Plc , Danieli & C. Officine Meccaniche SpA , an Italian metals firm, and RTW Biotech Opportunities Ltd. have lagged the Stoxx 600 since the turmoil started through Wednesday. The artificial intelligence-led rally in US stocks in recent years, coupled with rising index concentration and stretched valuations, has left the market vulnerable to a correction, Anderson said. “There’s always volatility risk and we can definitely see a scenario in which ...

In this article ENEL-IT BAS-DE ARGX-BE VNA-DE Follow your favorite stocks CREATE FREE ACCOUNT Vadimrysev | Istock | Getty Images LONDON — European stocks are expected to slump at the open on Thursday as the Iran war escalates following attacks on Iranian and Qatari energy infrastructure. The U.K.'s FTSE index is seen opening 09% lower, Germany's DAX down 1.6%, France's CAC 40 down 1% and Italy's FTSE MIB 1.2% lower, according to data from IG. A significant escalation in the conflict came Wednesday when Israel launched strikes on Iran's South Pars gas field, prompting Tehran to launch retaliatory missile attacks on Qatar's Ras Laffan liquefied natural gas terminal. U.S. President Donald Trump warned on Wednesday that if Iran continued targeting Qatar's energy facilities, America would "massively blow up the entirety of the South Pars Gas Field." Oil prices jumped once again overnight following the strikes and comments. European market attention is also turning to central bank action in the region today with monetary policy decisions from the European Central Bank, Bank of England, Riksbank and Swiss National Bank on Thursday. The central banks are widely expected to hold rates steady across the board as policymakers wait and see where the war in Iran is heading and assess its impact on the growth and inflationary outlook in the region. U.S. stock futures inched lower overnight after the Dow Jones Industrial Average dropped to a fresh 2026 low. The decline came after a surprisingly hot producer prices report , and greater inflation expectations from the Federal Reserve, which have added to fears that the war in Iran could mean the U.S. economy is headed for a stagflation scenario — or a period of lower growth and higher pricing pressures. Asia-Pacific markets dipped on Thursday, tracking losses on Wall Street. Earnings come from Enel , Equinor , BASF , Argenx and Vonovia . — CNBC's Sarah Min contributed to this market report.
