@riyaelity Zom/Swgy shud first reduce their cut of the restaurants sales & let restaurants list items on their platform at their original rate. And Zom and Swiggy shud charge delivery (distance based) + platform usage charges only from customer.

In Thane, I saw a restaurant taking direct orders on the phone and then sending the same via Rapido, with customer bearing 1/2 of the delivery charges. The customer is happy since he is able to order w/o inflated price of Zom/Swgy and also saves on platform charges etc.

I have heard of a Zomato loophole which is so simple, terrifying and Zomato should be losing sleep over it

A person orders 1 roti on Zomato. ₹40.

Then he calls the restaurant directly 6 rotis, paneer butter masala, malai chaap, dal makhani, gulab jamun and pays them on UPI.

Tells the restaurant to pack everything with that 1 roti Zomato order.

The Zomato rider picks it up. Delivers home. No clue that ₹1,200 of food is riding shotgun with a ₹40 order.

He’s using Zomato’s app. Zomato’s rider. Zomato’s entire logistics network and paying zero commission on 90% of his bill.

It’s cheaper than booking directly from Porter and restaurant.

The restaurant loves it. Full margin, no 25 to 30% Zomato cut.

The customer loves it. No platform fee. No surge. No GST on the hidden portion.
Zomato? Quietly subsidising the entire operation.

And here’s the part nobody’s talking about this isn’t one rogue customer. Restaurants are in on it. They may be whispering this tip to regulars to keep them off the app.

If this spreads, the unit economics of food delivery don’t just dip they bleed out from the inside.

Zomato needs to plug this loophole. This is exploitation of the system. Zomato MUST do something to stop this.

Have you seen this happening in your area?

@IndiaInfra02 Ok cool. And opening of that will ideally eliminate the Trucks taking the Thane city-GB road route right?

@KotakBankLtd kindly advise when and where did I speak to your representatives about a personal loan? Never expected this kind of spamming from an esteemed bank like you!

@law_ninja All the phone backups incl WA use Google account that's logged in on that phone. So unless your employees have office provided phones with office owned Google accounts, you cannot download those backups once that employee leaves. Am hoping that the article above assumes that.

@anishmoonka fun fact: every phone asks for a PIN to be setup before allowing biometrics setup - that PIN can be used to unlock the phone when biometrics doesn't work. A stranger can very well bypass biometrics and crack the PIN unless the phone strictly disallows that!

@CalvinSeip @pickover Oh ok. I thought the OP is implying the full number to be prime!

Some ppl might be offended but the bitter truth is you can build houses for them, fill their plates with free ration, give them jobs, clothes, and blankets yet many will sell what you give, drink away what you offer or waste it in gabbling, and still call themselves poor. The problem isn’t resources; it’s the refusal to rise.

Month after month, the government distributes ration, but when diyas are lit, they still rush to steal oil from them. Not out of need, out of habit. Out of the comfort of dependency that generations have learned to wear like pride.

You can’t fix this problem. Until they decide to stand up for themselves, no government, no policy, and no god can lift them. Poverty of money can be cured but poverty of mindset cannot.

Same can be done for other big trxns such as real estate and vehicle purchases. @PMOIndia @nsitharaman @nsitharamanoffc @IncomeTaxIndia

[Dilip Udassi @DilipUd]

For every return that got processed by ITR CPC in Sept within few hours of filing along with credit of refund if any, there are countless more filed in July still awaiting their attention - including mine among them;

TCS is another example of how our GoI punishes honest to weed out the dishonest! TCS on FX can be easily done away with if Banks/Dealers are linked to ITR systems to see if the PAN used is genuine tax payer or not @PMOIndia @IncomeTaxIndia @nsitharaman 6/

@RahulChels @Sahilinfra2 Have they completed the wiring? It was only poles right until this Sunday.

[Dilip Udassi @DilipUd]

@haldilal Oh. Ok! So along with the train, they also loaded a diesel engine?
