Torrent Electricals lights up Diwali with tribute to electricians
MUMBAI: This Diwali, Torrent Electricals is shining the spotlight on the real heroes behind India’s festival of lights, the electricians who make every celebration glow. With its new campaign, Mitron Ki Diwali, conceptualised by Schbang, the brand moves beyond product talk to deliver a deeply human story of gratitude and connection.
Set in a relatable middle-class home where last-minute lighting threatens to dim the festive spirit, the film introduces the electrician as more than a technician, he’s the bringer of light, quite literally. Through this everyday narrative, Torrent blends emotional storytelling with brand purpose, standing apart from competitors who focus solely on performance and specs.
“True progress is built on the shoulders of those who often go unnoticed,” said Torrent Electricals Limited CEO Sachin Phartiyal. “This campaign is our way of shining a light on electricians, the real enablers of every celebration, every home powered safely, and every moment of joy.”
The campaign doesn’t stop at film. Torrent is extending its gratitude on-ground through appreciation initiatives for electricians and interactive digital contests designed to engage consumers while reinforcing the brand’s core values of trust and responsibility.
Targeted at urban and semi-urban families aged 25–45, as well as the electricians, contractors, and retailers within its ecosystem, Mitron Ki Diwali resonates with audiences who value safety, reliability, and heartfelt storytelling.
“We wanted to shine a light on the electricians themselves, the ones who climb ladders, untangle wires, and quietly make our homes sparkle,” added Schbang group creative manager Mohammed Sadriwala. “They don’t just fix wires; they make celebrations possible.”

year net profit dips 22 per cent to Rs 915cr as revenue softens slightly to Rs 5,137cr.
MUMBAI: Angel One has just earned its wings in style delivering a blockbuster Q4 that proves the brokerage giant is still flying high even in a cautious market. Standalone revenue from operations for the three months ended 31 March 2026 rose sharply to Rs 1,459cr, up from Rs 1,056cr a year ago. Total income stood at Rs 1,467cr. After all expenses, profit before tax came in at Rs 440cr, while net profit for the quarter surged 83 per cent to Rs 320cr (versus Rs 175cr last year). Basic EPS stood at Rs 3.52 and diluted at Rs 3.44.
For the full year ended 31 March 2026, revenue from operations was Rs 5,137cr compared with Rs 5,238cr in FY25. Total income reached Rs 5,152cr. Profit before tax was Rs 1,272cr, and net profit came in at Rs 915cr (down from Rs 1,172cr). Basic EPS was Rs 10.09 (from Rs 13.00) and diluted Rs 9.85 (from Rs 12.68).
Total comprehensive income for the quarter stood at Rs 321cr, while the full-year figure was Rs 913cr.
The strong quarterly performance reflects robust growth in interest income (Rs 455cr) and fees & commission (Rs 1,000cr), even as the full-year numbers moderated amid a softer overall environment. Finance costs rose to Rs 134cr in Q4 (full year Rs 437cr), while employee benefits stood at Rs 244cr for the quarter (full year Rs 1,067cr).
In a year when many brokers felt the pinch of muted market activity, Angel One has delivered a sparkling Q4 that shows its core broking engine is firing on all cylinders. With the books now closed on FY26, the Mumbai-based player has once again demonstrated that consistent execution and a sharp focus on retail participation continue to pay rich dividends in India’s booming capital markets.
