DIL has seen same-store sales growth fall for nearly eight straight quarters amid weak urban demand

- Abhinaba Saha

India's beloved biryani, king of online food orders, feeds the nation's soul. Soon, it might offer comfort beyond the plate. As investors crave domestic growth to navigate global turbulence, they are assessing whether this culinary champion can become the likely flavour of choice to counter global market jitters.

At a time when the US tariff tantrums keep global markets on the edge, experts are hopeful of a pickup in Devyani International Ltd's (DIL) business as it plans to add biryani to its menu. The quick-service restaurant (QSR) operator is in talks to acquire Sky Gate Hospitality (SGH), which operates the brand Biryani By Kilo (BBK).

Given BBK's rising popularity, experts noted that this move might be a smart bet for DIL, especially as it struggles with falling sales in its KFC and Pizza Hut outlets across India.

The right to privacy

A stable door being bolted after the horses have fled? This view of India’s privacy law may seem justified, given that rules under the Digital Personal Data Protection Act of 2023 were notified only last week, more than eight years after the Supreme Court deemed privacy a fundamental right under the Indian Constitution.

WHY NITISH KUMAR STILL RULES BIHAR’S CHESSBOARD

It was a bright morning towards the end of 2009. Vapours were visible from our cups filled with hot tea at our hotel. We were sitting with a close confidant of Nitish Kumar. I asked him what was the secret of his leader's success? He replied, “on the chessboard of politics Nitish babu, like a knight, can move two and half paces forward and backward simultaneously. His right hand is unaware of what his left hand is about to do?’
