Yokohama: Crisis-hit Japanese automaker Nissan on Tuesday slashed its full-year forecast for both sales and profit as it struggles with weak demand in Japan, the US and Europe, as well as fallout from the arrest of former boss Carlos Ghosn. Nissan downgraded its net profit forecast to 110 billion yen ($1 billion) for the fiscal year to March 2020, compared with an earlier estimate of 170 billion yen. Full-year sales are now estimated at 10.6 trillion yen, down from a previous forecast of 11.3 trillion yen. Nissan blamed the poor outlook on weak first-half earn- ings, a strong yen, an uncertain global outlook and the stagna- tion of the car industry in gen- eral. Incoming chief financial “Nissan is in a very severe officer Stephen Ma said: “Sales situation at a time when com- % % in China outpaced the market petition in the global auto mar- but sales in other key regions ket is further intensifying,” said " A. including the US, Europe and Satoru Takada, auto analyst at Japan underperformed in those TIW, a Tokyo-based research markets.

t’s a crucial period for the aspirants of the Graduate Aptitude Test in IEngineering (GATE) 2020 sched- uled on February 1, 2, 8 and 9. Conducted jointly by the Indian Institute of Science and seven Indian Institutes of India (IITs) headed by one institute every year, candidates who end up qualifying the exam are not just eligible to secure a seat in IISc/IITs/NITs for higher education courses like MTech and PhD but can also get hired by various Public Sector Undertakings for high-paying engi- neering-related jobs.
