Kapiva crossed Rs 464 Cr in revenue in FY26, up 36.5% YoY. 📈 But here’s the interesting bit: • Losses stayed almost flat at Rs 72 Cr • Offline sales grew 81% • Lifestyle disease products grew 114% • 55% of D2C revenue came from repeat customers • The brand is targeting positive EBITDA margins by Q4 FY27. Can Kapiva turn growth into profits? 🌿

India’s love for Apple is getting EXPENSIVE. 🍎 Apple India’s FY26 numbers: 📈 Revenue: ₹1,03,853 crore (+31%) 💰 Net profit: ₹5,311 crore (+66%) Now for some wild math: at an average purchase value of ₹1 lakh, Apple’s ₹99,068 crore in product sales translates to nearly 1 crore devices purchases a year! 🤯 And reports suggest a significant share of smartphone purchases happen on EMI. Apparently, the Apple logo looks even better when you can pay for it in 12 instalments. 😂 Be honest, is your iPhone on EMI? 👀

super.money is spending money like it’s cashback. 💸 Revenue: Rs 292 Cr Marketing: Rs 341 Cr Losses: Rs 264 Cr The Flipkart-backed fintech grew 3.3X, but spent Rs 1.91 to earn every rupee. UPI charts conquered. Losses are still a concern.

The Dangal between Snabbit and Urban Company’s InstaHelp is getting intense! 🤼‍♂️ Q2 NTV: Rs 72 Cr vs Rs 71 Cr. Q2 burn: Rs 143 Cr vs Rs 174 Cr. Almost the same business, but Rs 31 Cr apart in burn. The fight is neck and neck. But who will win the battle of quick home services? 👀 entrackr.com/news/snabbit-ma…

Snabbit spent Rs 16 to earn every rupee of operating revenue in FY26. ➡️ The quick home services startup reported Rs 12.2 Cr in operating revenue against a Rs 168 Cr net loss. ➡️ Interestingly, it also earned Rs 14.76 Cr in interest income from bank deposits — more than its core business revenue. Rs 49 Cr went into marketing alone. ➡️ Clearly, the hype is running ahead of the revenue.

UPI charges have also decided to take a post-Diwali break. NPCI has deferred the MDR rollout to after Diwali, pushing the October 15 deadline. Looks like even transaction fees want to enjoy the festive season first. 😄 More details 👇 ✍️ @upadhyay_harsh1 entrackr.com/news/npci-defer…
