@virsanghvi As difficult as it would be sourcing the same volume of alternative oil.
Also, Palm oil contains significantly higher levels of saturated fat than most common cooking oils.
And as on date Palm Oil is NOT the cheapest cooking oil available in India.
One detail from this Iran war should make every serious state sit up: credible reporting says Israeli leaders were shown an image of Khamenei’s body after it was recovered by Mossad agents - and that Israel had visibility on his fate faster than Iran could even confirm the death of it's supreme leader and shape the narrative. That’s not “tech”. That’s HUMINT + penetration.
Satellites don’t tell you who is in which room at what time. Signals don’t always survive encryption and discipline. What wins you wars and prevents surprises is human access so-urces, moles, defectors, recruited assets - the messy, thankless work of being inside the enemy’s bloodstream.
Israel has no luxury of being lazy at intelligence. It sits in a hostile neighbourhood with actors who openly want it erased. So it builds networks that aren’t “near the border.” They’re near the decision-makers. That’s what survival looks like when geography is unforgiving.
Now bring that lens to India. When you live next to Pakistan’s terror ecosystem and a Bangladesh theatre that keeps throwing up radical modules, you don’t get to be sentimental about “soft power” as a substitute for hard intelligence. You need early warning, deep penetration, counter-infiltration, and ruthless disruption - before the plot becomes a headline.
And this is exactly where the armchair moralists fail India. They love questioning operations after the fact. They hate the boring investments before the fact: intel budgets, source protection, language capability, field tradecraft, inter-agency fusion, and the political spine to back covert work without leaking it for TRPs.
Pop culture and superhit movies like Dhurandhar tells the story really well but makes it look stylish - one hero, one mission, one punchline. Real HUMINT though is the opposite: years of patience, ugly risks, zero credit, and often no medal because the best outcome is “nothing happened.”
This is not about chest-thumping. This is about statecraft. The world is moving into an age where wars are decided by who sees first, knows first, and shapes first. Israel gets that. India must get that - permanently. Under Prime Minister Narendra Modi and our intelligence apparatus, NEW INDIA definitely gets it.
Because 'terrorist harbouring neighbours' don’t send calendar invites before they strike. They send handlers, money, propaganda, and sleepers. The only answer is being inside that machinery early enough to break it.
If you want deterrence, stop thinking intelligence is an accessory. It’s the foundation.
Thank you Indian Armed forces! Not a single tier 3 city was hit during Op Sindoor by Pakistani or Turkish drones.
Thanks to the Indian Armed forces Leadership. All 3 Chiefs, CDS, Vice Chiefs and everyone who kept all of us safe!
@Jasonphilip8 Keep reporting such spam on the TRAI DND app. It is a quick and easy process. Multiple complaints over time lead to disconnection of such numbers .
@saybwala@Chhabiy@prakdadlani I believe the problem lies in the demand of this specific design. For a standard sized mould MOQ of 1,00,000 would translate into only a few hours of production. If there isn't enough demand to sustain weeks of production, no manufacturer would invest in the mould.
@BPCLimited I am receiving official WhatsApp messages from your side regarding Bharat Gas Connection Consumer ID 87196522. I categorically state that I do NOT have any existing connections with Bharat Gas. Kindly remove my number from the above consumer ID.
Our CFO asked me to "audit" our software subscriptions last week.
He sent me a spreadsheet with 200 rows. Slack, Zoom, Jira, Notion, Trello, Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday.
He wanted me to survey the team to see which tools were essential.
I told him: "Surveys are for people who care about feelings. I care about OpEx."
I deleted the spreadsheet.
Instead, I logged into the corporate Amex portal and reported the card as lost.
Every single auto-renewal in the company failed instantly.
I call this "The Scream Test."
It’s simple Darwinian procurement.
If a tool goes down and nobody runs to my desk screaming within 4 hours? We didn't need it.
The Marketing team was at my door in 10 minutes begging for Adobe. We renewed it. The Sales team was crying about the CRM in 20 minutes. We renewed it.
But here’s the interesting part.
The HR department’s "Employee Wellness & Engagement Portal" ($12,000/year) has been down for six days.
Not a single person has noticed.
I didn't just save money. I quantified the exact value of our corporate culture.
It is zero.
Stop auditing. Start unplugging. If it’s important, they’ll scream. If they don't scream, it’s just noise.
@HDFC_Bank You better look into how Adani Lounge at Mumbai Airport T2 is scamming your customers by charging their card for lounge access and then denying them citing card not accepted.
The CEO of IndiGo Airlines walks into a Mumbai hotel bar and asks for a pint of Guinness.
The bartender nods and says, "That will be ₹50, Mr. Bhatia."
The CEO is surprised. "That's very cheap!" he says, handing over the money.
He takes the drink and walks toward a seat.
"Ah, you want to sit down?" says the bartender. "That'll be an extra ₹150. You could have pre-booked the seat for only ₹100."
The CEO grumbles but pays. He sits down.
"I see you've brought your laptop with you," the bartender adds. "Since that wasn't pre-booked, that will be another ₹300."
Furious, the CEO slams his drink on the counter and yells, "This is ridiculous! I want to speak to the manager!"
"Using the counter will be ₹200, sir," the bartender says calmly.
The CEO is livid. "Do you know who I am?"
"Of course, Mr. Bhatia," the bartender replies. "But remember, we are the only star hotel in Mumbai selling pints for ₹50. Now, how can I help you?"
@smohanfca@NalinisKitchen Yeah. That's why there is a composition scheme which reduces the return filing requirements and limits tax liability to 1% of turnover.
@smohanfca@NalinisKitchen Agreed. But the entire idea revolves around keeping the turnover below the threshold required for mandatory GST Registration, which I believe is ₹40 Lakhs of revenue per annum for goods and ₹20 lakhs for services.
We should have zero tolerance for shady businesses like "Malabar Gold".
Instead of feeling ashamed and apologising to the nation for their misdeeds, they are trying to intimidate whistle blowers like Vijay @vijaygajera.
It is our Dhanteras and Deepawali.

@Khurpenchhealth 3 किलो सरसों से लगभग 1.050 किलो तेल निकलता है यानि 1.050/0.91=1.153 लीटर तेल (density diff) और लगभग 1.90 किलो खल (₹26/किलो)। बाकी सभी खर्चे और टैक्स जोड़ कर भी 1 लीटर शुद्ध सरसों तेल की खुदरा कीमत कम से कम ₹170 प्रति लीटर होनी चाहिए।
