Avenue Supermarts, the operator of DMart retail chain, saw sales at its online grocery unit expand 21% in FY25 while losses widened as it expanded into new geographies. Sales for Avenue E-Commerce (AEL), its online subsidiary started eight years ago, was at Rs 3502 crore while net loss was Rs 247 crore, as per its latest annual report. The subsidiary, which runs DMart ready, had reported sales of Rs 2899 crore and a loss of Rs 185 crore in the previous fiscal year. "The nature of our industry and our job is to constantly compete, adapt and reinvent, all the time. It is literally war like. DMart Ready as an idea germinated to deliver to that ever-changing customer preference the same value through an alternate channel," said managing director Neville Noronha in its latest annual report. "We exist because we offer choice. We exist precariously as the customer has the choice to go to anyplace else – anytime, immediately, more so now by not even stepping out of their home, or even out of their chair."The company has so far invested about Rs 1138 crore in its online subsidiary to capitalise on the trend of consumers shifting to online buying especially during the this year, Avenue Supermarts, appointed Anshul Asawa to replace Noronha in February 2026, after he chose not to extend his contract more than two decades after he joined the supermarket chain.

What can be done can be fluid, knowing what should not be done is significantly more important. Leaders should not order, they should enable. Leaders know the least. Higher they are lesser they know. If retail is detail and retail is speed then the leader is the student, the subordinate is the teacher," said Noronha, Noronha, who owned around 1.94% stake in the company at the end of the March quarter, and is one of India's richest CEOs with its stake worth about Rs 5100 retail is estimated to have grown at 18% to Rs13 trillion while E-retail grew at 22% to Rs4.4 trillion.

AAP councillor among seven booked in Delhi under Public Gambling Act
An AAP councillor was among the seven individuals held in connection with an illegal betting racket, which was busted in the Swaroop Nagar area of outer north Delhi, an official said on Sunday. Acting on a tip-off, a team from the Swaroop Nagar Police Station conducted a raid and booked seven people allegedly involved in gambling activities under Sections 3 (penalty for owning or keeping, or having charge of, a gaming-house) and four (penalty for being found in a gaming-house) of the Public Gambling Act, 1867. Among those named in the case is Joginder Singh, alias Bunty, a sitting municipal councillor from the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP), police sources said. A senior police officer confirmed that Singh's name surfaced during the initial investigation, and further inquiry is underway to determine his involvement. Reacting to the incident, Delhi BJP President Virendra Sachdeva stated that a new face of the Aam Aadmi Party leaders has emerged ever since the party lost power in the national capital. He questioned former Delhi chief minister Arvind Kejriwal and AAP's Delhi President Saurabh Bharadwaj, asking whether the councillor would be expelled from AAP or if the matter would be dismissed again as a 'BJP conspiracy'. The Delhi BJP President further claimed that Singh, who was arrested allegedly with Rs 4.35 lakh in cash, is the same councillor who had brandished a revolver during the 2022 municipal election campaign, and was caught on video for the same.
