The banking sector plays a pivotal role in understanding the financial
and economic condition of a country. Despite the economic turbulence
due to covid, the sector has managed to sail through rough times, in
large part, due to strong governance and reforms.

In our cover story, we have shed light on the new earnings cycle that is
led by credit growth and expansion in margins. Read on to understand
the current situation better.

Also in this issue, we have discussed in detail topics like the Reserve
Bank of India’s pilot project of its digital currency for retailers and
wholesalers and how it’s likely to function, the outcome of the recently
held Monetary Policy Committee meet where inflationary pressures
were addressed, and the progress on the onboarding of retailers of
various sizes on to the open network for digital commerce (ONDC)
system.

You will also find articles on the growing popularity of the
government’s production-linked incentive (PLI) scheme, which in turn
is leading to this scheme being offered to other categories of products
too; how investors can take inspiration from their daily lives to make
fruitful investments: the need for companies to follow new policies and
regulations to avoid hindrances in the smooth functioning of their
businesses: and the revival in the hotel industry after the pandemic.
Maintaining a healthy investment portfolio can be tough in volatile
market conditions. Read on to know how you can deal with this in the
Beyond Basics section of this issue.

The Beyond Learning section carries an interesting article on the
nuances around prepaying home loans and how borrowers can employ
it to their advantage.
