Zoomcar hit by massive data breach affecting 84 lakh users, SEC filing shows
Zoomcar users' personal data has been stolen in a data breach where hackers gained unauthorised access to its information systems, the car-sharing platform has confirmed. At least 84 lakh customers were affected in the security incident that took place on June 9, according to a Zoomcar filing with the US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). The Bengaluru-based company said it had become aware of the data breach after a few of its employees received external communications from a threat actor who claimed responsibility for the data breach. Personal data stolen in the data breach includes the names, phone numbers, and car registration numbers of users. However, Zoomcar said that it had no evidence of hackers gaining access to financial information such as plaintext passwords and other sensitive identifiers. 'Upon discovery, the company promptly activated its incident response plan,' Zoomcar said in its filing. 'In response to the incident, the company has taken immediate actions to contain the threat and enhance its security posture. These measures include implementing additional safeguards across the cloud and internal network, increasing system monitoring, and reviewing access controls,' the company said. 'The company is also engaging with third-party cybersecurity experts to further assist with the investigation. The company has also notified the appropriate regulatory and law enforcement authorities and is cooperating fully with their inquiries,' it added. Zoomcar also said that the data breach had not impacted its operations. 'However, the Company continues to evaluate the scope and potential impacts of the event, including legal, financial, and reputational considerations, as well as any associated remediation costs,' it said. Zoomcar was founded in 2013 as a platform through which customers could rent cars on a monthly, weekly, daily, and hourly basis. In 2023, the company merged with an American blank-check firm called Innovative International Acquisition Corp (IOAC) and became a US‑listed public company registered in Delaware. Hence, it had to report the security incident in adherence to SEC financial reporting standards. Currently, Zoomcar operates in 99 cities with over 25,000 cars and more than 10 million users. Besides India, it is also available in Egypt, Indonesia, and Vietnam. In February this year, the company saw a 19 per cent surge in car rental bookings from the year ago period with contribution profit growing by 500 per cent to $1.28 million and net loss at $7.9 million.

Indonesian coal industry risking a tough transition as demand declines, report says
HANOI, Vietnam (AP) — Indonesia's coal industry is facing mounting pressure and should diversify as China and India, its biggest customers, cut back on imports of the heavily polluting fossil fuel, according to a report from a Jakarta-based energy thinktank, Energy Shift. The report released Tuesday says that the industry, which accounts for about 3.6% of Indonesia's economic activity and employs tens of thousands of people, needs to shift toward cleaner energy now or risk being forced into a costly transition later. Indonesia is the world's biggest exporter of coal, which is central to its economy, generating tax revenues and jobs. So the expected long-term decline in demand presents a unique challenge for the country of some 280 million. Indonesia's coal production is still rising, hitting a record 836 million tons in 2024, nearly 8% more than the year before. The industry also relies heavily on just a few buyers, with China and India buying nearly two-thirds of Indonesia's coal exports in 2023. China still relies on coal for more than half its electricity generation. It accounted for 41% of global coal imports in 2024, or nearly 543 million tons. But more than 75% of the growth in demand last year was met by clean energy. India's coal imports fell 8.4% to 183.42 million metric tons from April to December 2024, down from 200.19 million metric tons in the same period a year earlier, government data shows. The drop is part of India's push to reduce import dependence by ramping up domestic coal production. Imports for industries like cement, steel and aluminum that buy coal at market rates declined 12% while imports for thermal power plants fell even more sharply, down 29.8%. Indonesia's coal exports fell to a three-year low in January-April of this year, a shift that may signal a longer term decline, experts say. 'These are signs that Indonesian coal miners have to start taking seriously as well,' said Hazel Ilango of the Energy Shift Institute. There are other risks too. Most Indonesian coal companies are tightly controlled by insiders — owners, executives, and board members — who hold about 75% of company shares on average, according to the report. Regulations such as domestic supply rules and high royalties also limit profits, while access to global financing remains restricted. The private sector and investors are generally uninterested in long-term transition plans and are more focused on immediate profits, while government policies remain inconsistent, said Putra Adhiguna of the Energy Shift Institute. Experts say that the country's coal policy is riddled with contradictions. It has pledged to cut emissions and transition to clean energy, but it continues to expand coal production and approve new plants. Domestic subsidies keep coal cheap, but abrupt export bans have disrupted global markets. Meanwhile, the state utility plans to retire coal plants early under a $20 billion transition deal — even as new ones tied to the industry are still being built. As major coal importers like China and India cut imports to boost their energy security, Indonesia's coal sector needs to plan ahead, said Jordan Lee, an energy transition expert at the Tony Blair Institute for Global Change in Jakarta. 'The reason I say that is basically if you look at what happened with some big oil companies that have tried something similar, we have seen the market not respond too positively,' he said.
