BMC extends tender deadline second time in a month to clear Deonar dumpsite
For the second time this month, the Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC) has extended the deadline of its ambitious Rs 2,368 crore tender which was floated for appointing a contractor to remove solid waste that are currently lying untreated at the Deonar dumpsite through the scientific method of bio-remediation within three years. The Deonar dumpsite is one of the sites that have been selected by the state government for constructing housing tenements for the Dharavi Redevelopment Project (DRP)–a venture steered by the Adani group and Maharashtra government's Slum Rehabilitation Authority (SRA). The tender was floated on May 14, and the initial deadline was set up at June 3, which was later revised to June 23. Meanwhile, the new deadline stands at July 1. A total of 21 bidders have shown interest in the project. However, till date BMC officials said that no formal bid was submitted by any of the 21 interested parties that had evinced interest in the project. Civic officials said that the primary reason behind the extension is mainly due to the queries that are being submitted by bidders. 'Just because 21 firms have shown interest doesn't mean that all of them will submit their bids and unless we get an adequate number of bidders to submit their bids the deadline will be extended because we want to have competitive pricing,' the official added. At present, the Deonar dumpsite houses 1.85 crore metric tonnes (MT) of legacy waste which are stacked on piles forming large mounds rising upto a height of 40 metres. In its tender document, the BMC has maintained that a total 271-acre portion of the larger 311-acre dumpsite will be cleared. 'The queries raised by officials were mainly related to logistical challenges. A large number of them shared their concern about how such a large pile of legacy waste could be cleared within a three-year period especially because in Mumbai monsoon is there for four months. So, the contractor will lose 12-months within the total 36-month contract since this process can't be executed during the rainy season. So technically, the appointed contractor will get a 24-month window to complete the work,' a civic official told the Indian Express. The officials said that all the contractors who have submitted queries are Indian firms associated with solid waste management (SWM). Some of these firms are based out of Telangana, Tamil Nadu, Madhya Pradesh and Maharashtra. The BMC's move of floating a tender to clear the dumpsite also came seven months after the state government in October last year earmarked 124-acre of the Deonar dumpsite for constructing housing tenements for the DRP which is being executed by a special purpose vehicle–Navbharat Mega Developers Private Limited (NMDPL)–where the Adani Properties Private Limited (APPL) holds 80% of the stake, while the remaining 20% is with SRA.

BENGALURU: Zerodha co-founders Nikhil and Nithin Kamath have invested Rs 250 crore to acquire a minority stake in InCred Holdings Limited, the holding company of InCred Financial Services Ltd (IFSL). This comes ahead of InCred's proposed IPO later this year. IFSL is a tech-enabled NBFC focused on consumer, education, and SME lending.

They've built a strong team, a technology-first approach, and a clear view of where the market is headed. Backing them is a bet on that broader shift—and the belief that responsible lending can scale without losing sight of fundamentals," he added. Founded by Bhupinder Singh, InCred Group has built a diversified lending platform serving retail and MSME borrowers across the country. Its differentiated edge lies in deep data science, proprietary risk analytics, and digital-first operations, positioning it at the forefront of India's next-gen NBFC space.

Dutch investor Prosus pegs IPO-bound Urban Company's fair value at $2.4 billion
Dutch technology investor Prosus has pegged the fair value of at-home services platform Urban Company at $2.4 billion, according to its FY25 annual report. The Gurugram-based firm is among several Prosus-backed Indian startups preparing to go public. Prosus Ventures holds a 6.8% stake in Urban Company, which recently filed a draft red herring prospectus (DRHP) for a Rs 1,900 crore initial public offering (IPO). The offer includes a primary issue of Rs 429 crore and an offer for sale (OFS) of Rs 1,471 crore, through which early investors, including Accel , Elevation Capital, Tiger Global, and Vy Capital, will offload stakes. Over the past year, Urban Company closed multiple pre-IPO secondary transactions at a valuation of around $1.8 billion, ET reported. Another Prosus-backed company, omnichannel jewellery retailer BlueStone, is also gearing up for an IPO . As reported by ET on June 18, the private wealth management arms of 360 One and Centrum Wealth are in talks to facilitate secondary transactions worth Rs 300–350 crore in BlueStone. Both platforms are expected to sell the stakes to their clients ahead of the company's public market debut. The transaction is also likely to value BlueStone at around Rs 10,500 crore ($1.2 billion), about 30% higher than its last reported valuation of Rs 8,100 crore in August 2024, when it raised Rs 900 crore through a mix of primary and secondary funding from investors including Peak XV Partners and Prosus.
