SBI personal banking loan surpasses Rs 5 trillion

State Bank of India's portfolio of personal loans has crossed the Rs 5 trillion (tn) mark at the end of 30 November this year.

In a portfolio that includes loans for gold, pensions, automobiles, and education, the bank provided loans totaling to Rs 1 tn in 12 months. There are no housing loans in the portfolio.

Over the previous five years, tactical tactics and digital initiatives allowed it to surpass the Rs 5 tn threshold.

The bank's personal loan segment has increased from Rs 1 tn in January 2015 to Rs 2 tn in January 2018, Rs 3 tn in August 2020, and Rs 4 tn in November 2021. This category includes loans to individuals for consumption, auto loans, education loans, and loans against gold.

After a decade of underperformance, the share price of SBI has woken up. It's experiencing a similar breakout like ITC, and Coal India.

Oil prices above US$86 per barrel

Following a decision by the G7 and its allies to set a cap on the price of Russian oil at US$60 per barrel, the price of oil increased on Monday.

The price cap means only Russian oil bought for less than US$60 a barrel will be allowed to be shipped using G7 and EU tankers.

Following this, in Asian trading, Brent crude increased by around 1% to over US$86.

The decision was made after OPEC+ decided to continue its program of reducing production despite slower global growth and higher interest rates. This has affected crude oil prices and crude oil stocks in India.

OPEC+ is a group of 23 oil-exporting countries, including Russia, which meets regularly to decide how much crude oil to sell on the world market.

Bharti Airtel Teams Up with Meta

On Monday, telecom giant Bharti Airtel announced a collaboration with Meta Platforms, Inc. (Meta) to promote the expansion of India's digital ecosystem.

Meta develops solutions that assist people in connecting, finding communities, and growing enterprises.

When Facebook first appeared in 2004, it revolutionized the way people communicated. Since then, this apps like WhatsApp, Instagram, and Messenger gave people worldwide communication power.

Airtel and Meta will invest collaboratively in global connectivity infrastructure and new-age digital solutions based on Communications Platform as a Service (CPaaS) to meet the rising needs of users and enterprises in India.

To meet the growing demand for high-speed data and digital services as India gets ready to roll out 5G networks later this year, foundational connectivity infrastructure like undersea cable systems is essential.

Airtel will collaborate with Meta and STC to bring 2Africa Pearls to India.

The 2Africa cable would greatly increase India's cable capacity and give global hyper-scalers and enterprises the tools they need to create integrated solutions and give customers a top-notch seamless experience.

To further bolster Airtel's submarine network portfolio, both firms will pick up dedicated capacity and extend the cable to the landing station in Mumbai.

Bharti Airtel Limited is an Indian multinational telecommunications services corporation. It is India's second-largest network operator.
