From this, buyers of Hero two-wheelers can avail finance for up to 90% of the price. This finance would be at the lowest base rate of 12.5% with a maximum repayment period of five years. Rural markets of the company account for 46% of the sales and are currently facing a slowing demand.

Stocks in the energy sector are trading on a mixed note. As per a leading financial times, Cairn India and Vedanta are a step closer for their merger deal. This merger would help Vedanta become a major player in global markets and compete with companies such as Rio Tinto and BHP Billiton. Meanwhile, for the year ended March 2015, Vedanta and Cairn India took a hit on their bottom lines which was due to the impairment charges that Cairn had to bear on account of falling oil prices.
