Lucknow: The MangoBaba app developed by a group of farmers in Malihabad is offering fresh and carbide-free Malihabadi Mangoes right at one's doorstep at an affordable rate. Former director of CISH Shailendra Rajan, the brainchild behind the app, said: "The mangoes delivered through the app are sourced directly from farmers who use techniques certified by the Central Institute for Subtropical Horticulture (CISH).
These techniques include bagging, scientific harvesting, pest control, pruning and a specially designed harvester that prevents bruising while plucking the fruit, minimising the chance of spoilage. These practices help produce naturally safe, high-quality mangoes." He said though the app was launched in 2020 during the pandemic it didn't get much traction.
"The app has evolved over the years with a better user interface, real-time tracking, and payment options, including COD (cash on delivery) and online payment.
The app features on Google Play Store. Though the app has no direct govt intervention or formal price regulation, transparency and fairness in pricing are maintained," Rajan said.
He said with India Post as the logistics partner, deliveries can be made to far-off places as well. Rajan said mangoes offered on this platform are sold at almost the same price as those in the market. However, the value addition lies in packaging; each order is provided in a box with a protective foam net, a feature rarely seen on other platforms.
"Mangoes are first properly graded and then priced accordingly. This ensures better quality control and more value to the customer. Every mango is traceable" he said.

One-fourth of Kerala's land digitally surveyed, says Revenue Min
THIRUVANANTHAPURAM: Revenue Minister K Rajan on Wednesday said that nearly one-fourth of Kerala's land (excluding forest areas) has been digitally surveyed over the past two years, and the remaining areas will be covered soon. 'Kerala's end-to-end digital resurvey is the first of its kind in the country, with no physical touch-points,' the minister said. 'This digital resurvey can be considered the second Land Reforms Act of Kerala,' he added. He also said that Kerala will frame a new Settlement Act -- the first since 1931 -- to identify excess land in the state. As part of the reforms, the government will introduce a digital revenue card, the size of a debit card, featuring a chip and QR code. These will be issued in villages where digital resurvey has been completed, starting November. 'Even if a property lacks boundary walls, it will now have a digital boundary. Kerala is once again becoming a model for the country,' Rajan said

SunCrypto Launches Crypto Futures Trading in INR: 0% Fees for the First Month
SunCrypto launches crypto futures trading with up to 75x leverage across 500+ trading pairs, offering Indian investors INR-based futures and zero trading fees for the first month to maximize profitability. Crypto derivatives dominate the global market, accounting for 60-70% of all crypto trading volume. The benefits of futures lie in their high leverage and the electrifying volatility of cryptocurrencies, enabling traders to amplify returns by controlling larger positions with minimal capital. This makes derivatives a hotspot for wealth creation, as crypto's price surges fuel unparalleled opportunities. In India, however, crypto futures trading has been out of reach. Many exchanges limit futures trading to USDT pairs, forcing traders to move towards costly P2P conversions. Breaking this barrier 'SunCrypto - India's leading FIU-IND registered exchange', with the launch of its Crypto Futures Trading in INR. This first-of-its-kind move enables direct futures trading with Indian Rupees. To make this launch even more exciting, SunCrypto is offering zero trading fees for the first month, maximizing profitability for Indian users from the outset. For years, Indian traders have embraced futures in stocks and commodities. But in crypto, their journey often ended at spot trading due to the lack of INR support in derivatives. SunCrypto changed the game by allowing direct INR crypto futures trading, making it possible to go long or short on over 500+ trading pairs without touching stablecoins. Meanwhile, the platform's Futures Trading supports both INR and USDT pairs. There's no need to manually convert INR to USDT or use P2P services — the exchange automatically converts your INR balance into USDT at the time of trading in the USDT market, with zero fees. At the heart of this innovation lies leverage up to 75x — meaning users can control large positions with minimal investment. A ₹1,000 margin can open a ₹1,00,000 position, enabling high-potential strategies on short-term price movements. But high leverage demands smart tools — and SunCrypto delivers: Stop Loss and Take Profit (SL/TP) settings for risk management Isolated Margin to limit losses to a single position Multiple order types: Market, Limit, Stop Market, Stop Limit Real-time charts and a responsive interface for quick execution With this feature set, SunCrypto caters to both beginners and seasoned traders, offering a platform that is both intuitive and powerful. Founded in 2021 by Mr. Umesh Kumar (CEO) and Mr. Pramod Yadav (CTO), SunCrypto was built to solve the real pain points of Indian crypto users. From INR spot trading in more than 400 cryptocurrencies and Crypto SIPs to Bot Trading and now Futures, every feature is crafted to suit Indian needs and regulations. Today, SunCrypto is among India's top 3 crypto exchanges, trusted by over 2.5 million users and managing more than $50 million in assets. You can download SunCrypto Application from both Google Play Store and iOS App Store. This is just the beginning with a newly launched feature that is 'crypto futures trading' - SunCrypto's roadmap to empower all Indian traders. In the upcoming months, the platform plans to introduce Cross Margin trading, allowing users to use their entire portfolio as collateral for more flexible risk management. For those looking to earn passively, social and copy trading features are also in the pipeline, enabling users to follow and replicate the trades of top-performing traders. With the launch of INR-based crypto futures trading, SunCrypto has not only solved a long-standing problem for Indian traders — it has opened the door to a new world of possibilities.
