LIC Housing Finance said its impairment costs on financial instruments surged 114.5% to Rs763 crore.

Coal India: State-runCoal India Ltd’s annual wage bill is set to reach around 46,000 crore with a likely increase of about 6,000 crore after the world’s largest coal miner agreed last month to recommend a new wage agreement for its non-executive employees.
