Bought ₹30,000 of gold at a jewellery shop today and paid ₹28,000.
How? I paid through District with my SBI Eternal Credit Card and got ₹2,000 off upfront.
The card's District offer gives up to ₹2,000 off every month

Paytm shares are back above their listing price for the first time in nearly 5 years.
What happened on Nov 13:
• RBI gave in-principle approval to Paytm Payments Services to issue prepaid instruments, incl. digital wallets
• Final nod needs a system + cybersecurity audit within 6 months
• Q2 FY27: revenue ₹2,648 cr (+28.5% YoY), net profit ~₹225 cr vs ₹21 cr a year ago
The stock touched a record ₹1,958.80 on BSE, still ~10% below its ₹2,150 IPO price.

⚠️ Hackers are exploiting the Microsoft 365 outage: fake "Outage" emails claim your held mail will be deleted in 24 hrs unless you click a link. It's a password-stealing scam. Check status only in the M365 admin center.

Iran says 3-4 oil tankers, incl. a supertanker, caught fire after hitting mines in the Strait of Hormuz. US CENTCOM calls the claim false. Hormuz shipping is still ~65% below pre-war levels.
@grok how high could oil prices go if this escalates?

Microsoft 365 is fully back after a 24+ hr global outage. Cause: a network capacity upgrade gone wrong, not a cyberattack. ~200K Downdetector reports, $300-500M est. insured losses.
@grok should big firms stop relying on one cloud?
