Apart from the principal bench and the New Delhi bench, NCLT has benches in Allahabad, Ahmedabad, Bengaluru, Chandigarh, Chennai, Cuttack, Hyderabad, Indore, Kolkata, Kochi, and Mumbai.

EXCLUSIVE: Akshay Oberoi goes the Aamir Khan way; Shah Rukh Khans King marks his THIRD Christmas release; makes a STUNNING revelation: My emotional monologue in Love Lottery is 6 minutes LONG

Akshay Oberois big-budget film, Toxic, finally released in cinemas on August 26. At the films trailer launch, held in Bengaluru on August 8, the actor was seen sporting long hair. However, of late, he has gone back to a short haircut. In an exclusive interview with Bollywood Hungama, Akshay revealed the reason behind the change in look and spoke about his upcoming projects and a lot more. Akshay Oberoi said, I had signed up for a lovely period film. Its set in a village during the pre-Partition era. I really loved the script. The character required me to have hair like that; he belongs to a tribe whose members have had long hair for generations. I loved the script so much that I immediately started growing my hair. I was clear that I didnt want to wear a wig. But for some reason, the films funding fell through. It was heartbreaking for all of us. But maybe itll happen one day. Meanwhile, season 4 of Aashram is coming. Hence, I cut my hair and Im off to shoot for it. When does the much-watched web series fourth season go on floors? Akshay replied, I believe Aashram went on floors just a few days back and I am joining very soon, early next week. After Toxic, Akshay Oberoi is now looking forward to another biggie, King, co-starring superstar Shah Rukh Khan. It releases on December 24. Interestingly, King would be his third Christmas release, the other two being his debut film Isi Life Mein (2010) and Kisko Tha Pata (2024). When pointed out, Akshay was pleasantly surprised. He said, Oh yes. My debut film came on Christmas. I had forgotten that Kisko Tha Pata also released on December 24. And now King is also coming on the same day! Aamir Khan has had the most Christmas releases, and Akshay Oberoi seems to be following in his footsteps. The actor laughed out loud and remarked, Oh, I love it. This is too good! What a comparison, man. Ill take it! He then stated, Thanks for pointing it out. Its so interesting. I would have definitely not made that connection because these are two different times in my career, as in when I did the first film vis--vis where I am right now. Its funny and interesting to see the whole journey full circle like that. Moreover, King is a film with Siddharth Anand. Its my second film with him (after Fighter; 2024) and my third project with him (the web series Flesh was written by Siddharth Anand). Hes the one who put me on a map for the mainstream audience. In life, so many coincidences take place that you have to believe in a higher power and accept that we are not in control. When asked about King, Akshay Oberoi said, All I can say is that Siddharth Anand and Mamta Anand are like family to me. I got to reunite with my family, that too on their biggest film. Until my last breath, Ill repay in whatever way possible for what they have given me. I love them as human beings. I have done a small part, in whatever way I could, to be a part of this humongous, highly anticipated film that my brother and mentor, Lord Siddharth Anand, has made. And hes indeed a Lord! He added, I badly wanted to be in this film because I wanted to be a part of this big thing that someone I love was making. In between Toxic and King, Akshay Oberois film, Love Lottery, will release in cinemas on September 18. The teaser features his emotional voiceover and leaves an impact. Akshay Oberoi revealed, Its a part of a monologue which goes on for 6 minutes. Its a small film; there was not much of a budget. So, I had to nail that monologue fast. You saw a glimpse of that in the teaser; youll hear more of it in the trailer, which comes out soon. Love Lottery seems to be very topical and relevant. Akshay agreed, Indeed. When I read the script, I told myself, I dont know what the fate of the film would be. However, I want to be a part of it because it deals with a burning topic. I am all for women empowerment. Men have done a lot of s**t. But now we are in a place where men also need a voice. There should be someone who speaks about mens rights. I guess thats why these masculine films are also doing well. Hence, this is an attempt to do something different. The character that I play is a very vulnerable hero. As the tagline says in the poster, hes a man framed by love. The caption is so apt.

Department of Consumer Affairs notifies Legal Metrology Rules, 2026

Srinagar, Aug 30: The Department of Consumer Affairs has notified the Legal Metrology (Indian Standard Time) Rules, 2026 on 27 August 2026. The Rules will come into force 180 days from the date of their publication in the Official Gazette. The Rules provide for Indian Standard Time (IST) as the common time reference across the country for legal, administrative, commercial and other official purposes. The 180-day period will allow Government departments, businesses, institutions and other organisations to make the required changes to their systems before the Rules come into force. The need for a common time reference has increased with the growing use of digital and technology-based systems. Banking and digital payments, telecommunications, railways, power systems, computer networks and government records depend on accurate time and time stamps. Differences between time sources can affect the coordination and recording of such activities. The Rules are aimed at ensuring that important systems across the country use accurate and consistent Indian Standard Time. The common time reference will support: Accurate time-stamping of banking and digital payment transactions;coordination of railways, airports and other transport systems;reliable operation of telecommunication and internet networks;accurate time-keeping in power systems;maintenance of government and legal records; andcoordination of emergency and other time-sensitive services. Use of Indian Timing Sources The Government is developing infrastructure to disseminate accurate Indian Standard Time across the country through Indian institutions and Legal Metrology laboratories. The Rules also provide for the use of NavIC, India's satellite navigation system, and other approved Indian timing sources for reliable and secure time dissemination. At present, several systems use foreign satellite-based time sources. The development of an Indian time dissemination infrastructure will provide additional options for critical systems and reduce dependence on external time sources. White Rabbit Technology Demonstration As part of the One Nation, One Time initiative, a White Rabbit Technology-based Indian Standard Time Dissemination Demonstration Network was commissioned at the Regional Reference Standard Laboratory (RRSL), Bengaluru, in July 2026. The system has demonstrated the dissemination of Indian Standard Time for sectors including banking, telecommunications, power, transportation and digital governance. The Department has also demonstrated secure dissemination of IST between RRSL Bengaluru and NSE Chennai, in collaboration with CSIR-NPL, ISRO, SEBI, NSE, BSNL and other stakeholders. The 180-day period before commencement of the Rules will provide stakeholders time to review their existing systems, undertake necessary technical changes and prepare for implementation.The Legal Metrology (Indian Standard Time) Rules, 2026 will provide a common Indian Standard Time reference for time-dependent systems and official purposes across the country.

Women's Asia Cup: Muzumdar Backs hungry India To Shine Despite Jemimah's Absence

Asia Cup Group: Despite the absence of star batter Jemimah Rodrigues, India head coach Amol Muzumdar on Saturday backed his hungry for success squad to set the tone for the next six months in the shortest format, as they prepare to open their Women's Asia Cup Group A campaign against Thailand on Sunday evening. Look, speaking about Jemimah, I have always maintained that she is a clutch player for us. She will definitely be missed. But then, having said that, her recovery is very important for us. Her rehab is well taken care of at the Centre of Excellence in Bengaluru. I think, yeah, she will be missed. But there are some other players who have come in the team and I am sure they will do well. But having said that, Jemimah will be missed, Muzumdar said in the pre-match press conference. Highlighting the squad's fierce ambition to do well, Muzumdar stated that the players are determined to turn good preparation into trophy wins. This group has been a special one. There is no doubt about it. We have done well in the ODI set-up. We have done well in the Test matches that we have played. In the last five Test matches, we have won four of them. They are hungry for success and winning some tournaments. Every tournament is important and crucial for this set-up. This set of players are really hungry for success. You would be able to see that in the coming future. Acknowledging the humid conditions in Dubai, Muzumdar felt the group's prior experience of playing in the UAE, during the 2024 Womens T20 World Cup, would stand them in good stead. Definitely, it is a little hot and humid over here in Dubai. But we are just focused on getting used to the conditions. Most of the team members have been a part of the T20 World Cup, which was played here a couple of years back. So we know the conditions here, we are trying to get used to it. We are focused on playing some good cricket here. Reflecting on the team's aggressive template, Muzumdar stated that the focus remains strictly on execution rather than recent statistics, especially with India losing nine of 16 T20Is played this year. We don't pay too much attention to the form. You are talking about 16 T20Is in the last 6 months. But at the same time, we know what scope of improvement this team has got. There is a huge scope of improvement and this is a young side. I think, if you look at it, we are trying to play some good aggressive cricket and from here on, we will try and set the tone for the next 6 months. He also lauded the intensive 15-day camp held prior to the tournament at the CoE, noting that the thorough fitness and fielding drills have prepared the entire 15-member unit for match duties. We had a fantastic camp at the Centre of Excellence. A 15-day camp which was well taken care of by the S&C. We worked really hard on our fitness. We worked terribly hard on the fielding part as well. As I said, there are some scope of improvement. We are trying to pay utmost attention to those minute details of certain aspects of the game and focused on that in that camp. It was a fantastic camp. As far as I am concerned, as a coach, I was really happy with the camp and the results of the camp. The preparation has been good. It is just about going out there and executing our plans. We haven't discussed about the eleven. But whoever is there in the 15, they should be ready to play in the 11. Muzumdar also mentioned that the team prefers to avoid managing workloads through jargon, relying instead on solid foundational fitness built during camps. I think, as I said, of course, there are some things about workload. But we try and avoid talking into the set-up. All I would say is that if we have prepared well, as what I said, in the camp, then I think taking care of them for the next three or four weeks becomes easier. Basically, you work hard in the camp and then everything else falls in its place. I guess that kind of a word, we try and avoid it within the group. We have to manage certain things and we are trying to do that. Muzumdar also mentioned that the team prefers to avoid managing workloads through jargon, relying instead on solid foundational fitness built during camps.
