India’s 10-minute delivery boom has reached its pr India’s 10-minute delivery boom has reached its profitability moment. Blinkit, the category leader with about 44% share, posted adjusted EBITDA of ₹102 crore in the June quarter and a 5.3% contribution margin on net order value of ₹17,132 crore—its fifth straight quarter of margin gains. Swiggy’s Instamart is near contribution breakeven. Zepto remains loss-making as it scales toward a listing. The three platforms processed hundreds of millions of orders in FY26 as quick commerce became a daily habit. The market could reach $65–70 billion by 2030 and drive nearly half of India’s incremental e-retail growth. Scale now matters less than unit economics: higher basket sizes, denser dark stores and less discounting will decide who turns growth into lasting profit.

Iran’s leaders have acknowledged the economic dama Iran’s leaders have acknowledged the economic damage of six months of war with the United States, while pledging to pursue diplomacy and defence together.

The government called diplomacy and defence “inseparable wings” to protect national interests and said it would maintain control of the Strait of Hormuz. Tehran signalled it would not yield to U.S. pressure.

GLP-1 drugs mimic a gut hormone released after mea GLP-1 drugs mimic a gut hormone released after meals.Agonists such as semaglutide and tirzepatide bind GLP-1 receptors and last far longer than the natural peptide. In the pancreas they raise insulin and lower glucagon only when blood sugar is high, improving glucose control with limited hypoglycaemia risk. They slow stomach emptying so food lingers and fullness arrives sooner. In the brain they increase satiety and cut hunger and cravings. The combined effect is lower calorie intake, better HbA1c, and often weight loss plus gains in blood pressure and lipids. Tirzepatide also activates GIP receptors, which can deepen insulin response and weight reduction. These medicines reshape hunger and metabolism; they are not stimulants or simple fat-burners.
Essel Group chairman Subhash Chandra has defended Essel Group chairman Subhash Chandra has defended his personal insolvency proceedings, saying the group repaid about Rs 43,000 crore of nearly Rs 45,000 crore owed after its 2019 financial crisis.

He disputed the widely reported Rs 22,006 crore claims figure before the NCLT, saying it arose from personal guarantees for group company loans and did not represent money he had personally borrowed. Chandra called for an independent audit of the group’s borrowings and repayments to settle the controversy. The NCLT has approved a Rs 6.5 crore repayment plan against the admitted claims.

Iran and the United States remain deadlocked over Iran and the United States remain deadlocked over efforts to end the Gulf conflict, a senior Iranian source told Reuters on Wednesday. There has been “absolutely no progress” in mediated talks to revive the interim deal reached in June and set a clear timeframe for implementing its commitments. The June agreement called for an “immediate and permanent termination of military operations on all fronts.” It quickly collapsed after President Donald Trump declared it “over” on July 7 and Iran’s foreign ministry later suspended it. Tehran maintains the US violated the pact within 48 hours and withdrew days later. The source rejected reports of any ceasefire extension, saying from Iran’s perspective no such period ever began. Recent shipping attacks have further raised oil prices, underscoring the fragile stalemate. Washington offered no immediate comment.
