UPI + Credit Cards: A Great Idea Losing Steam I have a simple question for @RuPay_npci leadership โ€” and I genuinely hope this reaches the right people. If merchants are allowed to freely disable credit card acceptance on UPI, then what was the objective behind enabling RuPay credit cards on UPI in the first place? What problem did this actually solve? Was the goal wider adoption โ€” or just a feature on paper?

most people (still) fail to realise ideas are no moat zomato started as a food menu finder. swiggy was a courier service called bundl. zepto was a whatsapp group for kirana delivery. none of them started as q-commerce giants. they became that - after many pivots, small and major. you don't start with trillion dollar ideas. you start with small, visible problems and solve them badly. then a few people pay you. so you solve it a bit better. the problem expands. you follow it by expanding your own take of the solution. and in this entire process, the idea doesn't get validated. your execution does. and you just try to survive.

Looking to maximise value from your fuel spends? โ›ฝ Hereโ€™s a simple framework that actually works: 1๏ธโƒฃ Donโ€™t blindly chase the highest-reward fuel cards On paper returns can look great, but real-world usability matters more. 2๏ธโƒฃ Start with convenience. Identify fuel brands you trust and pumps (preferably COCO) that are close by. Saving time and effort is value too. 3๏ธโƒฃ Check what you already have Some existing cards offer fuel vouchers that can outperform fuel cards themselves. For example: EPM offering Shell/HP vouchers with up to ~18% effective value back. Axis too has them. 4๏ธโƒฃ Evaluate your fuel spend honestly If your monthly fuel spends are just couple of thousand rupees, a dedicated fuel card wonโ€™t move the needle much. 5๏ธโƒฃ Go dedicated only if spends justify it If your fuel spends are meaningful and consistent, then a fuel-focused card can make senseโ€”and there are a few solid options worth considering. Fuel optimisation isnโ€™t about one โ€œbestโ€ cardโ€”itโ€™s about fit, convenience, and spend behaviour.

Goa Trip โ€“ Day 1 Lotus Sutra Beach Resort, Arambol (Review) - 4 Star Property I wanted my wife to experience the extreme North side of Goa - a vibe thatโ€™s completely different from Baga, Calangute or South Goa. Since I had explored this side earlier, I knew exactly where to stay, Lotus Sutra Beach Resort at Arambol. And trust me, the vibe hit differently. โœจ I booked their Partial Sea-Facing Hut, and the highlight of this property is simple: ๐Ÿ‘‰ You open your room door, walk 100 meters and youโ€™re standing on Arambol Beach. A true beach-touch property. Insanely accessible. The place is super green, peaceful, and perfect if you want that slow, relaxed North Goa energy. The swimming pool is nice, the ambience is chill, and everything around is walkable. โœ” Arambol Flea Market โ€“ 500 meters โœ” Arambol Sweet Lake โ€“ walking distance โœ” Beach shacks all around โœ” Perfect spot for sunset lovers We thoroughly Enjoyed our stay here and it was very relaxed day. If you want to explore the boho and artistic side of Goa, this stay is ideal. โญ My Ratings Hut: 6/10 Location: 9/10 Amenities: 8/10 Food: 6/10 (But you have options to eat at other Shakes nearby) ๐Ÿ˜‡Redemption - This stay was fully redeemed using Scapia Points that I had accumulated through referrals. ๐Ÿ”ฅ Final Verdict If you want a beach property with a relaxed vibe, easy access, and the real Arambol feel - Lotus Sutra is a great pick for 1โ€“2 nights. Perfect for couples who want to explore North Goa beyond the mainstream crowd.

๐Ÿšจ 100s of new Marriotts to open soon! Back in May, Marriott announced yet another new brand, "Series by Marriott." Fern Hotels has around 100 hotels, and all of them will be Marriott soon! ๐Ÿ”ฅ West India itself is 50% of them! Now we have 6 of them listed and set to open in November 2025. Marriott's footprint in India will soon be over 250, which is massive! Award nights would take some time, though we can expect reservations to open very soon.
