Launched in 2024, Gabit has raised $9.5 million in seed funding from investors including Norwest Venture Partners, Amit Agarwal, Deepinder Goyal, and Kunal Shah. Its full-stack health ecosystem integrates a smart ring with AI-powered coaching and personalized wellness plans across four core pillars: fitness, nutrition, sleep, and stress.
Full-stack offerings and expansion
A key differentiator for Gabit is its AI-based coach, 'PEP', which helps users interpret their health data and provides actionable recommendations. 'If your energy is low or sleep is poor, PEP tries to decode the why behind it using your tracked markers,' Gupta explained.
The company is expanding into supplements and has already entered the skincare segment with its Minimal Sunscreen, which Gupta said has gained strong traction. 'We are launching a curated nutrition line with our own R&D and manufacturing through trusted partners in India and overseas,' he noted.
Overall growth
In less than a year, Gabit claims to be leading India's smart ring category and is witnessing strong repeat engagement, driven by the simplicity of its app and integrated health stack.
Gupta added that the company is also seeing interest from international markets and may explore global expansion after consolidating its presence in India.

Eternal share price jumps over 55% in under 5 months as rally sustains post Q1; analysts see it hitting ₹362
Shares of Zomato's parent company Eternal, have sustained a strong upward trajectory despite broader market volatility, with investor interest remaining robust following the release of the company's June quarter results on July 21. Since then, the stock has gained 22%, taking its total jump to 55.2% in less than five months. The stellar June quarter performance also propelled the stock above ₹ 300 for the first time in seven months on July 22, and it has since held above this level, closing today's session at ₹ 312 apiece. Analysts believe the stock still has enough steam left to extend the rally, with estimates suggesting it could potentially reach ₹ 362. Analysts at Choice Equity Broking noted that Eternal is exhibiting a strong confluence of bullish signals. Historically, the stock had faced declines near the same price zone, but this time it has recovered with the formation of a higher-high and higher-low structure, reflecting sustained upward momentum. They pointed out that the stock recently retested its breakout zone and is now consolidating in a healthy manner just below the resistance level, indicating cooling supply and rising demand. According to the brokerage, this price action also places the stock on the verge of a cup-and-handle formation, which suggests a technically robust base and growing accumulation. Analysts see that a decisive close above ₹ 325 could act as a catalyst for the next leg of the rally, with near-term upside potential toward ₹ 362, underscoring its strong bullish momentum. They further added that the price is well-supported above its 20, 50, 100, and 200-day Exponential Moving Averages, all trending upward, confirming the strength of the prevailing trend. On the downside, immediate support lies at ₹ 300, which may serve as an attractive accumulation zone in case of minor pullbacks. The Relative Strength Index (RSI) is currently at 67.46 and trending upward, indicating strong momentum, though approaching overbought territory. For strategy, the brokerage suggested that traders may consider a buy-on-dips approach around ₹ 300, with a positional stop-loss at ₹ 288. Upon confirmation, Eternal could aim for ₹ 362 and beyond, offering a favorable risk-reward setup for positional trades.

Budget constraints wont stall Delhis development: CM Rekha Gupta
New Delhi, Aug 13 (PTI) Delhi Chief Minister Rekha Gupta has asserted that development work in the national capital will not be hindered by financial constraints, as she directed all department heads to ensure timely completion of projects, officials said on Wednesday. The chief minister earlier this week held a special meeting with the heads of all departments to review the progress of the ongoing development projects, public service initiatives, and administrative reforms, an official statement said. During the meeting, Gupta directed the department heads to ensure that the ongoing development projects across Delhi are completed on schedule, with continuous monitoring by responsible officials, it said. She stressed that the capital's progress towards a 'Developed Delhi" will not be impeded by financial constraints, noting that the Delhi government has an adequate budget while the Central government is also providing full support. The chief minister also directed that the e-office system be strengthened and utilised to its full potential, stressing that no development work should face obstruction under any circumstances. She issued clear directives that all capital projects outlined in the budget must be implemented without any delay, and their progress reviewed regularly. Senior officials must continuously monitor these initiatives and take immediate, effective action to resolve any issues, the chief minister said. She highlighted that the Delhi government has passed a record budget of Rs 1 lakh crore to ensure that no project faces financial constraints. Gupta added that she will continue to review the projects regularly to ensure their timely completion. She also expressed satisfaction with the success of the digital governance system, and emphasised promoting it further, along with ensuring the full implementation of the e-office system. Noting that 119 out of the 199 departments have adopted the system, she asked the remaining ones to join the e-office system immediately to ensure complete digitalisation of offices. The chief minister also stressed the active participation of all the departments in the 'Kude Se Azadi' campaign being run in August. Gupta also instructed the department heads to prioritise tasks related to representatives or ministers of the Central or Delhi governments, legislators, etc., as their work is linked to public interest. She said all department heads should prioritise renovation of their office premises so that the work environment is appropriate and people do not face any inconvenience.
