TV Anchor Caught in a ₹6 Crore Stock Scandal! | The Daily Brief #193

In today's episode of The Daily Brief, we cover 2 major stories shaping the Indian economy and global markets:

1. CNBC Anchor’s Insider Trading Scam Exposed!
SEBI has banned former CNBC Awaaz anchor Hemant Ghai for front-running stocks he recommended on TV. Using his wife’s and mother’s trading accounts, he secretly bought shares before his live show, profiting ₹6 crore. SEBI’s probe uncovered emails, OTP logs, and manipulated documents, leading to a five-year market ban and financial penalties.

2. Is Wind Power Losing to Solar in India?
India’s wind power growth has stalled at 0%, while solar surged by 22%. Lower costs, easier installation, and better policy support have made solar the preferred choice. With declining wind speeds and expensive turbines, is wind energy fading while solar dominates the renewable future?
