Tiger-Backed Razorpay Eyes Group Profit, Expands to Singapore
Indian fintech firm Razorpay Software has earmarked group profitability as a key milestone on the road to a stock market listing, which it intends to stage within the next three years.
The Tiger Global Management -backed company is focused on becoming profitable on a consolidated basis across all business verticals, said Shashank Kumar, co-founder and managing director of Razorpay in an interview with Bloomberg News. 'We're 2-3 years away from IPO,' he added. While its core payments segment is already profitable, Razorpay remains loss-making at the group level, with its neo-banking and lending services yet to break even.

From Canada to Your Car: How Cleancy and World-Class Detailer Moris Are Elevating Car Care in India
In a move that's shaking up the car care industry in India, Cleancy Car Wash has joined hands with one of the world's finest car detailers—Moris, a renowned automotive detailing expert from Canada with over 20 years of experience in ceramic coating, paint protection, and luxury car detailing. This collaboration brings global standards of automotive care to Indian driveways, and it all started with one game-changing meeting. Atif Pasha, the founder of Cleancy Car Care Services, first met Moris during a trip to Canada. A passionate entrepreneur and car enthusiast, Atif was instantly captivated by the level of precision, professionalism, and finesse Moris delivered in every vehicle he touched. Whether it was a vintage classic or a high-end sports car, Moris approached each detailing session as an art form. 'At that moment, I knew this was the benchmark India needed,' says Atif. 'People in cities like Bangalore want their cars to shine—not just look clean but feel like new. And no one I had seen did it better than Moris.' That encounter became the inspiration to bring international-grade detailing services to India under the Cleancy brand. Moris is more than a detailer—he's a perfectionist. For two decades, he's built a name across Canada for his flawless ceramic coating applications, luxury detailing packages, and deep restoration work. His clientele includes exotic car owners, auto collectors,who trust him with their prized possessions. What makes Moris special? Unmatched Attention to Detail : Every scratch, swirl, and imperfection gets his full attention. : Every scratch, swirl, and imperfection gets his full attention. Master of Ceramic Coating : He's among the few certified experts globally for multiple premium ceramic coating brands. : He's among the few certified experts globally for multiple premium ceramic coating brands. Detailing Educator: He has trained dozens of detailers across North America and now—the Cleancy crew in India. Rather than outsourcing services or hiring from outside, Cleancy made a bold move—Moris personally trained Cleancy's Captain Crew, the professionals who now perform detailing and coating services across Bangalore. From body panel prep to advanced buffing, interior steam cleaning to applying 9H ceramic coating, Cleancy's team has been taught the same techniques Moris uses in his Canadian studio. The result? A level of service that's rarely seen in India. 'We wanted to make sure our customers aren't just getting a service—they're getting Moris-level quality,' says Atif. 'That's why our entire crew is trained in-house. It's the only way to maintain consistently high standards.' With Moris' legacy now embedded in Cleancy's DNA, customers in Bangalore are discovering what true car detailing looks like: Multi-stage polishing for deep gloss and clarity for deep gloss and clarity Premium ceramic coatings that protect for years, not months that protect for years, not months Steam-powered interior detailing for a deep, hygienic clean for a deep, hygienic clean Attention to every inch—from engine bay to tailpipe The buzz is growing. Luxury car owners, car lovers, and even regular commuters are lining up to book Cleancy's premium packages. 'It's like my car just rolled out of a high-end showroom,' one BMW owner said after a recent ceramic coat session. From a chance meeting in Canada to setting new standards in India, the story of Cleancy and Moris is more than a business venture—it's a mission to elevate how cars are treated. Backed by one of the world's best detailers and driven by in-house excellence, Cleancy isn't just washing cars—it's restoring pride in every vehicle they touch.

India orders inspection of Boeing 787s after Air India crash
India's aviation regulator has ordered all Boeing 787s being operated by local carriers to be inspected after an Air India crash killed 270 people this week, the aviation minister said on Saturday, adding the authorities were investigating all possible causes. The aviation regulator on Friday ordered Air India to conduct additional maintenance checks on its Boeing 787-8/9 aircraft equipped with GEnx engines, including assessments of certain take-off parameters, electronic engine control tests and engine fuel-related checks. "We have also given the order to do the extended surveillance of the 787 planes. There are 34 in our Indian fleet," aviation minister Ram Mohan Naidu told a media briefing in New Delhi. "Eight have already been inspected and with immediate urgency, all of them are going to be done." He did not say whether government officials will be involved in the inspections. The Boeing 787-8 Dreamliner with 242 people on board bound for Britain's Gatwick Airport began losing height seconds after take-off on Thursday and erupted in a fireball as it hit buildings below, in what has been the world's worst aviation disaster in a decade. Air India operates 33 Boeing 787s, while rival airline IndiGo has one, according to data from Flightradar24. IndiGo did not respond to a request for comment. In a statement, Air India said it is currently completing the one-time safety checks directed by the Indian regulator, adding that "some of these checks could lead to higher turnaround time and potential delays on certain long-haul routes." The planes, however, have not been grounded, but a source on Friday told Reuters the Indian government was considering that as an option. Naidu also said the government will look at all possible theories of what led to the crash. Air India and the Indian government were looking at several aspects of the crash including issues linked to its engine thrust, flaps, and why the landing gear remained open as the plane took off and then came down, Reuters has reported. At least 270 bodies have been recovered from the site of the crash, Dhaval Gameti, president of the Junior Doctors Association at B.J. Medical College, told reporters. Only one of the 242 passengers and crew on board survived while others were killed as the plane struck the medical college's hostel as it came down. The crisis has cast a shadow on Air India, which has for years struggled to rebuild its reputation and revamp its fleet after the Tata Group took over the airline from the Indian government in 2022. Tata's chairman said on Friday the group wants to understand what happened, but "we don't know right now." Naidu said a government panel was investigating the crash and will issue a report within three months. "We are going to improve every necessary thing that is going to come our way, to improve the safety," he said at the briefing, declining questions from journalists. Dozens of anxious family members have been waiting outside an Ahmedabad hospital to collect bodies of loved ones killed in the crash, as doctors were working overtime to gather dental samples from the deceased to run identification checks and DNA profiling. Rafiq Abdul Hafiz Memon, who lost four relatives in the incident, said he was not getting any answers from authorities and was "very hassled". "We have lost our children ... we are not understanding anything. Please help us get information about our children. Tell us when they are going to release their bodies," Memon said. Another father was upset about not being able to get the body of his son, Harshad Patel, saying he was told by authorities it will take 72 hours for DNA profiling. "The authorities are trying to help but our patience is running out," he said. Most bodies in the crash were badly charred and authorities are using dental samples to run identification checks. Jaishankar Pillai, a forensic dentist, told reporters on Friday they had the dental records of 135 charred victims, which can then be matched through reference to victims' prior dental charts, radiographs or other records. Even for doctors, things are getting difficult, as the plane struck a hostel building of the B.J. Medical College, where many of the dead are undergoing identification checks. "Most of us are struggling with our emotions and are mentally disturbed because of the loss of friends and colleagues," said one doctor who did not wish to be named. "The loss of so many colleagues and friends in this incident is difficult."
