Burger King to raise capital

It said that it aims to reach the 700-restaurant mark by 2026. Last month, it had also announced that it has made a binding offer to acquire BK Indonesia, which runs the Burger King outlets in Indonesia, from its existing shareholders. Meanwhile, shares of Burger King were down 0.5% yesterday.


Genus Power rises on new orders

With these orders, the company’s order book has crossed 1,000 crore, which is around 1.6 times its FY21 revenue. The management said that these orders signal a strong start of order inflows for the industry and will help it to diversify its order book. Meanwhile, shares of the company lost some of its initial gains and ended 2.8% higher.
