This one paper by BIT Jharkhand graduate, Indian origin lead researcher Ashish Vaswani (@ashVaswani) and co has helped add $10 trillion to the world's market capitalization. That's 150x Jharkhand's GDP and 2.5x India's GDP. Let that sink in.

Remembering the innocent lives lost in the gruesome Pahalgam terror attack on this day last year. They will never be forgotten. My thoughts are also with the bereaved families as they cope with this loss.
As a nation, we stand united in grief and resolve. India will never bow to any form of terror. The heinous designs of terrorists will never succeed.
Dear @narendramodi, a billion Indians nominate @sanjeevsanyal and the Kaundinya team for this year's Padma honours, for proving ancient India's maritime prowess by sailing a ship built to 5th century specification.
Some advance towards greatness; others return to it. We do both.
Nik has been on a roll, and for someone who started ~50 episodes ago and does it as a side gig, he has really improved over time. Full pro-podcaster he has become. 😀
Goes on to show that the odds of success are much higher when you build things around what you love.
@nikhilkamathcio is curious, looks good, listens, and speaks well, and the magic sauce is launching the podcast at the right time when podcasting in India was just taking off.
The thing that stood out to me was what @elonmusk said beautifully towards the end of the podcast, and also describes much of what Nik does with WTF, which I’m proud of as a brother.
“I’m a big fan of anyone who wants to build. Anyone who aims to make more than they take has my respect. That’s really the core principle: strive to be a net contributor to society.
It’s similar to the pursuit of happiness. If you want to create something valuable or financially successful, the goal shouldn’t be the money itself. Instead, focus on providing genuinely useful products and services. When you do that, the financial rewards tend to follow naturally. Just like happiness—you don’t chase it directly; you pursue the things that lead to it: fulfilling work, learning, friendships, loved ones. The happiness is a byproduct.
It might sound obvious, but anyone starting a company should expect to work extremely hard, accept that there’s a real chance of failure, and stay focused on ensuring that the output is worth more than the input.
Are you creating value? That’s what matters. Make more than you take.”

I would avoid the Lenskart IPO due to a few reasons
Overpriced : at FY25 PE ratio of 230X, valuations are too high for my comfort
At upper end of the price band, a 70000 cr market cap is not justified
In FY25 , Profit is inflated due to a one time gain
FY24 was a net loss of 10cr
Most new age start up IPOs are just exit strategies for VCs
As a retail investor, I would be cautious here.
@kunalb11 I need to change my mobile number in CREd as the new num is associated with my account,ur support says mob. can’t be changed & if my mob. is allocated to others in future, he can get access to all my CRED history. is it true?
Why can’t PAN&mobile combination be unique?
Wishing everyone a very happy Independence Day. May this day inspire us to keep working even harder to realise the dreams of our freedom fighters and build a Viksit Bharat. Jai Hind!
I strongly condemn the terror attack in Pahalgam, Jammu and Kashmir. Condolences to those who have lost their loved ones. I pray that the injured recover at the earliest. All possible assistance is being provided to those affected.
Those behind this heinous act will be brought to justice...they will not be spared! Their evil agenda will never succeed. Our resolve to fight terrorism is unshakable and it will get even stronger.
@Uber@Uber_Support Dear Uber, I need to download the invoice if my trip but the trip itself is now showing in my app?
I took uber on 24 March early morning. How can I get the trip details and invoices back?
Homage to the courageous heroes we lost in Pulwama in 2019. The coming generations will never forget their sacrifice and their unwavering dedication to the nation.
India mourns the loss of one of its most distinguished leaders, Dr. Manmohan Singh Ji. Rising from humble origins, he rose to become a respected economist. He served in various government positions as well, including as Finance Minister, leaving a strong imprint on our economic policy over the years. His interventions in Parliament were also insightful. As our Prime Minister, he made extensive efforts to improve people’s lives.
Farewell to an icon Ratan Tata Sir.
Sir, your integrity, ethics and compassion will be remembered by entrepreneurs of all ages. You have taught us social entrepreneurship and compassionate capitalism.
You will be remembered forever.
Rest in peace, Om Shanti. 🙏
