India's national carrier has stopped all flights to and from Europe, the east coast of North America and the Middle East, it said in a post on X. Some flights heading for India were forced to return to their point of origin or were being re-routed, it said.

Twelve UK SMEs have been announced as winners of the 2025 Made in the UK, Sold to the World Awards by the Department for Business and Trade.

Twelve outstanding UK-based small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) have been named winners of the Department for Business and Trade's (DBT) 2025 Made in the UK, Sold to the World Awards. Now in its third year, the awards recognise the international success of Britain's most dynamic small businesses.

Together, they highlight the strength of UK innovation in exporting cutting-edge technologies and sustainable solutions to global markets. Gareth Thomas, Minister for Services, Small Businesses and Exports, said: "The innovation and entrepreneurship shown by the businesses entering the Made in the UK, Sold to the World Awards demonstrate the best of British business. When small businesses export, the whole economy benefits.

Prosus Values BlueStone at USD 950 Mn as Jewellery Brand Eyes IPO

Among its other investments, Prosus highlighted solid returns from PayU India (14% IRR), Swiggy (23%), Meesho (20%), and Eruditus (15%). You're reading Entrepreneur India, an international franchise of Entrepreneur Media. Consumer internet brand Prosus has valued Bengaluru-based jewellery retailer BlueStone at approximately USD 950 million, according to its latest annual report. This puts the company just below the USD 1 billion "unicorn" benchmark as it prepares for an initial public offering (IPO). Prosus, a Dutch-listed firm owned by South Africa's Naspers, holds a 4.43% stake in BlueStone through its fund MIH Investments One B.V., which owns 60 lakh equity shares. The investment firm has pegged the fair value of this stake at USD 42 million. BlueStone, led by founder and CEO Gaurav Singh Kushwaha, filed its draft red herring prospectus (DRHP) with India's market regulator SEBI in December 2024. The IPO will include a fresh issue of shares worth up to INR 1,000 crore and an offer for sale of up to 2.39 crore equity shares by existing investors. Meanwhile, The Economic Times reported that wealth management arms of 360 One and Centrum Wealth are likely to participate in a secondary share sale. This transaction aims to provide a full exit to RB Investments and values BlueStone at around USD 1.2 billion—a 30% increase from its INR 8,100 crore (~USD 975 million) valuation in August 2024. Prosus also reported strong financial performance for the year ended March 31, 2025. The company's core headline earnings rose 47% to USD 7.4 billion, while group revenues increased 21% to USD 6.2 billion. Among its other investments, Prosus highlighted solid returns from PayU India (14% IRR), Swiggy (23%), Meesho (20%), and Eruditus (15%). However, its investment in healthcare startup PharmEasy resulted in a negative IRR of 29%. With BlueStone's IPO on the horizon and a higher secondary market valuation, investor interest in the omnichannel jewellery brand appears to be rising.
