"Per capita income distance (42.5%) + population (17.5%) together account for 60% of the horizontal devolution formula under the 16th Finance Commission. They create a strong redistributive pull toward poorer and/or more populous states but weaken the marginal incentive for aggressive economic reforms or strong family planning in these states. The introduction of a demographic performance criterion is a good move but it should have been set at 15% to create stronger behavioural incentives for population management in more populous states.

"Indias next TCS will not come from the software space. It will come from the content space. What started as a small internal fix turned into something nobody saw coming.

"At Kundapura for a cousins wedding and the amount of money people now spend on weddings is honestly insane at least for those who can afford it. Every ritual has turned into a separate event on a separate day. 15-20 years ago rituals like the turmeric bath were reserved for the core family. Even applying a drop of henna on the bride or groom's hand was a private family affair. Now these small rituals are full blown public functions with [---] to [---] people attending.

"We are in the middle of exam season for children and once March ends there will be a flood of messages everywhere asking parents to enroll their kids into summer camps. Most of these camps focus on fairly standard things. Swimming art and craft some STEM based science experiments maybe a programming or robotics bootcamp. All of these are useful and important in their own way and I am not dismissing them at all. But I do think we are missing something fundamental. Children today rarely get opportunities to use their hands to fix repair or even understand how everyday things around them work."

"Big stars don't have trouble selling OTT rights; their movies are often picked up by major platforms. The real challenge is faced by newcomers and art filmmakers. Even if the government creates an OTT platform who will bear the Customer Acquisition Cost (CAC) to attract paying customers It's not just about gaining users' trust in a new platform. I believe that if big stars come together to support a local OTT platform for a couple of years that platform could stand on its feet and eventually become a hub for supporting newcomers and art filmmakers. Films are a community thing and this problem"

"Back in the days when I worked for a large US corp we had a new VP who convinced the US management to give 100m dollars to build a SMB product from India and ended up building an utterly substandard product. That just destroyed a lot of goodwill created by earlier leadership from India and no new deep tech product development work came back after that. If you work for a US based company in India chances of you doing meaningful work is extremely low until and unless it isnt a product specifically targeted for Indian market (Ex: google pay) I have checked with many colleagues working in"

"At least in the case of tech and product/service startups at a very early stage the major expenses are usually cloud subscriptions which are typically paid via debit/credit cards in foreign currency. These payments are charged at 18% GST under the Reverse Charge Mechanism (RCM). This places a heavy burden on startups especially at the pre-revenue stage. Since they are not generating revenue yet the input credit they accumulate cannot be utilized and the tax effectively becomes a cash outflow. As the next step in reforms it would be extremely helpful if startups especially those in the"

"Startup triggers often manifest in unique ways for founders with each story holding its own inspiration. The birth of WellBi one of India's rapidly growing direct-to-consumer fashion brands was no exception. Supreeth a young man from Mysuru completed his engineering and secured a well paying job at an IT firm in Bengaluru. However witnessing school-aged boys toiling in hotels instead of pursuing education hit him hard. It just triggered a desire to do something around rural livelihood leading him to envision a venture that would be both sustainable and empower rural livelihoods. Motivated by"

"Is the AI boom a bubble that will crash soon I think bubbles form when speculative enthusiasm outpaces fundamentals. There is some degree of truth to it when someone says public perception about AI is fueled by sci-fi narratives and corporate marketing and often overestimates AIs current abilities to deliver value especially to corporates with huge chunk of legacy systems. However we shouldn't forget the fact that AI is already delivering measurable value. From healthcare to logistics to research real-world applications are growing. Unlike the dot-com bubble where many companies lacked viable"

"How many of you agree that Bengaluru's infrastructure has gone from bad to worse in the last few years The restlessness of drivers that we see on the road is direct result of bad infrastructure. Everybody wants to escape from traffic and bad roads as soon as they get on the road. Nobody shows even a slightest courtesy for pedestrians these days. There is no sense of community in the city anymore. When was the last time there was any major protest demanding better roads or footpaths People are busy doom-scrolling shorts and reels. Corrupt babus and politicians are milking the life out of this"

"Rooted films can come from only those who know their roots and language is an inseparable part of one's roots. If we take out Kannada and Tulu a film like Kantara can never be made. The obsession with English in all aspects of life has created shallow flowerpot identities with roots as weak as a decorative plant in a flower pot.
