Crypto investors are finally breathing a sigh of relief as the markets trade on a positive note. Bitcoin finally moves above US $ 20,000.

The rise was much needed for investors in crypto markets, because they were not having a good night's sleep these days as coins continued to tumble in the face of a global market selloff and rising interest rates.

Many crypto exchanges have paused bitcoin withdrawals which lead to a sharp fall in the entire crypto market.

We have been seeing that gold prices are falling recently. But today the pattern has changed. The gold price is trading on a positive note.

In news from the power sector, let us take a look at rising prices of Tata Power.

Tata Power share price was continuously falling since the beginning of June.

However, the fall seemed like a temporary blip.

But the trend has changed. Tata Power share price has started rising from 21 June 2022.

Tata Power has kicked off an ambitious nation-wide plan of setting up electric vehicle (EV) charging stations from North to South, connecting Kashmir to Kanyakumari and from East to West, from Guwahati to Dwarka and Bikaner over next the next 3-5 years.

The move is part of the company's transformation programme, Tata Power 2.0, which focuses on customer centricity, sustainability, digital so as to become the 'utility of the future' said CEO Praveer Sinha.

Tata Power has tied up with OEMs like Tata Motors under which home charger solution is provided to each of the vehicle owner, as part of the vehicle purchase and nearly 15,000 home chargers have been provided.

In addition to this, nearly 2,000 plus public chargers are provided in nearly 170 cities including highways between cities so as to provide flexibility to users to top up their charging, as and when required.

In addition to this fleet charging facility is being provided along with captive charging for public transportation and buses at their depot.

All these plans pose huge growth opportunities but will the plans actually transform into profitable actions? Only time will tell.
