“When I saw Google change the destiny of the planet, I could not imagine doing anything else but working with brilliant entrepreneurs.”-Asha Jadeja Motwani and her husband, Rajeev Motwani, the Silicon Valley legend of technical startups, are together the founding stakeholders of Google.In the late 1990s, they came to the United States as most Indians, as students. From being part of Google's early days to their journey as investors and now, extending that into an active participation in American politics. She speaks about Rajeev's pivotal role in mentoring Larry Page and Sergey Brin, co-authoring the PageRank paper, and helping shape Google's DNA. Today, through the Motwani Jadeja Foundation, Asha continues to build on that legacy; funding entrepreneurs, supporting Indian voices in global think tanks, and opening doors at Davos and Washington.

Big relief for consumers starting September 22nd! GST Reforms 2.0 are now in effect, slashing prices across a wide range of goods—from kitchen staples to big-ticket items like electronics and automobiles.At the 56th GST Council meeting on September 3rd, major reductions were announced on nearly 375 items, with the new prices kicking in just in time for Navaratri.Essentials like ghee, paneer, butter, namkeen, ketchup, jam, dry fruits, coffee, and ice cream are now cheaper. And so are aspirational items like TVs, air conditioners, and washing machines.The biggest impact? The automobile sector—GST on small cars has dropped from 28% to 18%.In his national address on the eve of the rollout, Prime Minister Modi called the income tax exemption on earnings up to ₹12 lakh, along with the GST cuts, a “double bonanza” for the poor, neo-middle class, and middle class.Read more here Airlines on India–US routes may face more turbulence. A new $100,000 H-1B visa fee is denting travel demand. Air India, the market leader, is already grappling with airspace restrictions. Emirates and Qatar Airways trail closely behind.Tourist and student traffic has slowed, with March and June seeing notable drops.However, platforms like MakeMyTrip report a surge in last-minute US bookings, as travellers rush to beat the visa fee deadline. Still, experts expect the softness on these routes to continue as visa rules tighten further.TE Raja Simhan and Aneesh Phadnis report on the mounting pressure facing international carriers and how the new visa rules are reshaping travel demand.

Smaller firms and start-ups may struggle with the cost.Legal experts warn of confusion and possible litigation, as many fee-related details remain unclear. However, some analysts say this could boost offshore hiring and remote work from India.Sindhu Hariharan reports on how the move is reshaping hiring strategies across the tech industry, both in the US and in India.Read more here For many investors, small-caps are the hunting ground for the next big thing — early bets with multibagger potential. But reality paints a sobering picture.A BusinessLine Portfolio study shows that of the 4,012 small-cap stocks listed by AMFI in December 2017, only 34 graduated to mid- or large-cap status by June 2025.

With AI startups capturing 57.9% of global venture capital in 2025, Rahul's insights on building sustainable AI businesses, navigating the India-US corridor, and identifying the next wave of AI unicorns provide essential guidance for founders and investors riding the AI revolution.
