For many younger, urban consumers, platforms like Instamart have become the gateway to discovering regional gems. One such story comes from a Bangalore-based software engineer who stumbled upon Tenali Double Horse while looking for premium-quality dals during a late-night grocery run on Instamart. 'I had never heard of the brand before, but the packaging looked authentic, and the reviews were great. I tried their Urad Gota—and now I don't buy anything else.' she shared. Stories like these reflect a growing trend where digital discovery is breathing new life into legacy brands, bridging the gap between tradition and convenience for a new generation of urban Indian consumers. With two decades of agricultural excellence, Tenali Double Horse, a premium pulses brand from Tenali in Andhra Pradesh's Guntur district, is broadening its retail reach by tapping into India's fast-growing digital consumer base.

Today, Tenali Double Horse, a small brand born in the heart of Andhra Pradesh, is accessible across 12 Indian states - Andhra Pradesh, Telangana, Karnataka, Tamil Nadu, West Bengal, Delhi NCR, Maharashtra, Odisha, Punjab, Haryana, and Kerala on Instamart. This highlights how quick commerce platforms are enabling legacy and regional brands to reach wider geographies and new customer segments, particularly urban consumers seeking speed, quality, and convenience. Founded by Mr. Mohan Shyam Prasad in 2005, the brand's entry into quick commerce via Instamart demonstrates how traditional businesses are leveraging modern retail to meet the growing demand for accessible, high-quality food. Its flagship product, Urad Gota, has earned strong brand loyalty and drives repeat purchases, while other staples like Toor Dal, Moong Dal, Channa Dal, and Idly Ravva are emerging as top sellers in the Dals & Pulses category on Instamart.

‘Like Jack Charlton used to' - Ex-Ireland star outlines League of Ireland plan
Ex-Ireland defender Terry Phelan has revealed that he would love to work in the League of Ireland one day - and follow in the footsteps of Jack Charlton by engaging in one of his former manager's favourite hobbies. Phelan is currently in India with Bangalore-based South United FC, where he is working with all strands of the club - from youth up to the senior team. And while he is in no hurry to leave, Phelan has ambitions to work in Ireland, but not necessarily as a manager. 'Maybe I end up back in Ireland one day, who knows, doing a little bit of education there and doing a little bit of fishing like Jack Charlton used to,' he told MirrorSport. 'Who knows? I might stay in India for the rest of my life. You never know. I'm like that. Wherever the wind blows. If it's something I want to do, then why not?' Phelan, who spent much of his childhood in his mother's hometown of Tubbercurry in Sligo, was tempted late last year by the vacant Wexford post, but opted to remain in India. Phelan was speaking to MirrorSport in association with NetBet Irish Online Casino. He said: 'I was thinking, should I or shouldn't I? I thought, I'm not ready for that yet. 'When I mean, I'm not ready, I've got to finish stuff over here, I've still got that little dream over here of maybe getting one or two players into Europe, maybe into Ireland.

'If there are any guys out there who want to work with me and look at players, I am open to that. We are hoping to expose players, give them that exposure.' As for any future role within Irish football, he added: 'I'd just love to come in and develop players. Mentoring is key now. 'I don't think we have a lot of mentors about, especially when they jump from the youth team and they are catapulted into the first-team. The coach can only do so much. 'I'd love to go into a mentoring role and have that link between the youth and first-team, be somebody they can talk to, somebody their parents can talk to. I think that's what they need. 'In our day, we mentored ourselves. With the stresses of the world on these players, and they really want to get there, they want it quick, maybe they need people to sit them down and show them the way. 'Maybe one day… I'm 58 now, maybe in a few years I could come back to Ireland and implement something. 'I don't know yet. You never put a number on it. At the moment I'm loving life where I am.'

BrainSim-X Launches Developer Platform for Neural Simulation Data
BrainSim-X announced the launch of a developer access program that allows researchers and app developers to integrate brain simulation data into their applications. More information about the platform is available at their official website . The Bangalore-based research initiative said the platform will focus on medical applications, particularly epilepsy research and neurological treatment development. Unlike typical API services, BrainSim-X requires developers to submit applications explaining their intended use cases before gaining access to the platform. Interested developers can request API credentials through their secure portal. The approval process takes approximately one week, with the organization reviewing each application to ensure it aligns with their medical research focus. One developer who has used the platform for three months described it as providing detailed neural activity data that requires significant technical expertise to implement properly. A detailed account of this developer's experience can be found in their comprehensive review . 'The platform generates large amounts of data that require powerful computing resources,' the developer said. 'It's designed for serious medical research rather than general app development.' The organization provides documentation and support for developers working on brain-computer interfaces, neuroscience research projects, and medical applications. Their research findings are available for review in published papers. Real-time data access became available recently, allowing developers to integrate live neural simulation feeds into their applications. The platform is intended for researchers studying brain activity patterns, testing neurological treatments, and developing diagnostic tools. BrainSim-X operates the service through a secure API that provides access to neural simulation data generated by their brain modeling platform. Technical requirements include high-memory computing systems capable of processing large neural datasets. Additional technical insights about the platform's capabilities can be found in this technical analysis . The research initiative says the developer program represents part of their commitment to making brain simulation technology accessible to the global research community. Applications are evaluated based on their potential contribution to medical research and neurological treatment development. BrainSim-X has not disclosed revenue generated from the developer platform, stating that funds support ongoing research activities. The organization expects demand for the platform to grow as more researchers learn about neural simulation applications in medical research. Future platform updates will include enhanced simulation capabilities and additional tools for analyzing neural activity patterns. BrainSim-X says the developer program differentiates it from commercial AI companies by focusing on open research collaboration rather than proprietary technology development. The platform supports research into cognitive enhancement, educational technology, and advanced diagnostic systems. Developers interested in accessing the platform must demonstrate relevant research experience and explain how they plan to use neural simulation data in their projects. BrainSim-X provides training resources to help developers understand neuroscience concepts necessary for effectively using the platform. The organization says it will continue expanding the developer program while maintaining focus on medical and scientific applications. Related Resources TIME BUSINESS NEWS
