NIKON COOLPIX P1100 Struggling to get that perfect zoom shot from far away? Worry no more, as Nikon has just launched the COOLPIX P1100 with an absurdly strong optical zoom of 125x.

Mahindra & Mahindra’s electric vehicles (EVs) are a prime example of this category. In contrast, “assembled in India” involves products where most components are imported, and typically less than 10% of the product’s value is added locally. A classic case is…
