Economy/ Finance/ Business Ambani only wins in highly regulated sectors when the govt protects him. In consumer tech he has a huge graveyard.

Those who ask Ambani why he don't compete with big companies, he does and, and he has a graveyard of failures there because he can't just use money to win there.

In software, other companies are big companies with cash, they can also reduce their cost, but the small snacks sellers, chocolate factories can't afford discounts. And he ends up killing those companies.

i) He acquired Saavn to compete with Spotify, god knows who pay for it now.

ii) JioChat and JioMeet, another one to counter WhatsApp and Zoom, no one use because he can't just throw money to win, need to work on UI, UX, Supprt which is lil difficult.

iii) JioPages, his chrome alternative, no one uses.

iv) JioBook, his chromebook alternative, basically a cheap laptop for kids, failed.

And there's too many attempts and none of them succeeded.

And JioPC and his cloud gaming thing are next to fail.

Economy/ Finance/ Business Just wanted to let y'all know that USA is selling E85 for $0.89 a gallon which equates to $0.23 a liter or roughly 22 rupees. We are paying 82.12 a liter for the same thing in Delhi almost 4x.

Vishwaguru strikes again.

ETA: These prices are from Indiana, USA. Compared to the US average our E85 is still expensive, but not by 3x rather by about 15% or 0.15x.

Nevertheless, Ethanol production was supposed to be cheap enough to bring fuel prices down to 15 rupees a liter according to Nitin Gadkari, the horrible honorable minster of ethanol blending roads and highways. Then why is it more expensive than the USA?? (https://www.ndtv.com/india-news/petrol-will-be-sold-at-rs-15-per-litre-if-what-minster-nitin-gadkari-said-4179911)

Economy/ Finance/ Business After 12 Years in Power, Why Doesn't India Have a Single Model City?

Thumbnail

692 Upvotes

People often praise countries like Norway for providing citizens with basic necessities and high-quality public services. Instead of endless political debates, imagine if India could develop even one model city that consistently offers:

• Minimal corruption

• Clean air and a healthy environment

• Safe food free from adulteration

• High-quality roads and infrastructure

• Reliable education without exam paper leaks

• Affordable and trustworthy healthcare

• Efficient public services for ordinary citizens

Many supporters argue that leadership should be judged by results. Therefore, a fair question is: after more than a decade in power, which city can be presented as a benchmark for these standards?

Take Delhi, the nation's capital. Citizens still face concerns about air pollution, food adulteration, corruption, infrastructure challenges, healthcare accessibility, and examination irregularities. If these problems continue to exist, people naturally ask what progress has been made in addressing them.

India is one of the world's largest nations, with a population of over 1.4 billion people and a multi-trillion-dollar economy. Such scale presents enormous challenges, but it also provides tremendous opportunities. With effective governance, population can become a strength rather than a limitation.

The real goal should not be political point-scoring. It should be building an India where citizens can expect clean air, honest institutions, quality healthcare, fair examinations, and a high standard of living—regardless of which party is in power.

The question is simple: how can India create cities and systems that set a global example in governance, public services, and quality of life?

We too are working with an AI Startup (NO ITS NOT A CHATGPT WRAPPER AI, But instead our own Model for Businessmen) and such Overhyping will damage our reputation in the Market.

644 AI technologies showcased. 41 CEOs of tech giants attending. A quarter of a million visitors. 326 exhibitors from 37 countries. 3 of India’s own LLMs unveiled. 1 fraud detected and dealt with.

The India AI Impact Summit is being mocked by China, Pakistan, and the Congress. (Seriously seems like congress is itself an another country within India)

This is what everyone should talk about AI India Summit not one off incident of Galgotia
