For decades, India’s credit system has worked one way. It judges you, gives you a number, and walks away. Your credit score is 580. You’ve been rejected for the loan you needed. Nobody tells you why. Nobody tells you how to fix it. You read generic advice online. You ask a relative. You guess.

Skip the guesswork and let GoCredit AI map out your personalized, high-impact path to an excellent credit score

Today, that changes.

GoCredit’s deep-tech research division TARA AI Labs has released BASIC — Behavioural Analytics for Score Improvement in Credit. It is an AI engine built to do something no Indian credit tool has done before: read your actual credit report and tell you, specifically, what to do next. Not generic tips. A personal plan, built from your own credit data, that shows exactly which actions will move your score, by how much, and in what order.

The full framework is published as a research paper at taralabs.ai/paper/basic-paper. To our knowledge, it is the first research paper in India to treat credit score improvement as its own machine learning problem. The paper introduces a new field of study — Behavioural Credit Analytics — focused on turning AI insight into measurable consumer benefit.

The 300 Million Indians the System Forgot
India has over 300 million credit-active consumers. Most of them sit in the middle. Not chronic defaulters. Not prime borrowers. They sit in a near-prime band where a 50-point swing in their credit score is the difference between a loan at 12% and a loan at 22%. The difference between approval and rejection. The difference between buying a two-wheeler this month or waiting another year.

These are gig workers in Bengaluru. Self-employed shopkeepers in Indore. Salaried professionals in Tier 2 and Tier 3 cities whose financial lives don’t fit the templates that credit scoring models were built for. They check their score every month on an app. They see the number. They feel the weight of it. And they have nowhere to turn for a real plan.

“Credit scores answer one question well — where are you? They were never designed to answer the next one: how do you move? We see this every day. People come to us with scores of 580, 620, 650 — not because they’re irresponsible, but because nobody has shown them how to move. Until BASIC, nobody was giving these borrowers a real, personalised plan to fix their financial future. That’s what we set out to change,” said  Anupam Acharya, Co-founder and CEO of GoCredit.

What’s Different About BASIC
Until now, an Indian consumer with a low credit score had three options. Generic advice from public websites. Paid credit counsellors who couldn’t see their actual report. Rule-based simulators that gave the same answer to everyone, regardless of profile.

None of these produced a real, personal plan. None of them could tell a specific borrower with a specific credit profile what to do, in what order, to gain the most points in the least time. That is what BASIC does — and as far as we know, no one has done it before in India.

So what makes BASIC work? Most credit models look only at where you are today. BASIC looks at where you are, where you’ve been, and how fast you’re moving — for every part of your credit profile. Trained on the credit histories of more than a million Indian borrowers over four years, BASIC can predict your next-month credit score with an average error of just 16 points. On the 300–900 credit score scale, that is under 2.2% off. Standard deep-learning models trained on the same data are about four times less accurate.

“A credit score isn’t just where you are today – it’s where you’re heading. Most score simulators miss this: they look at your current credit attributes in isolation, when bureau algorithms are actually responding to how those attributes are changing over time. We trained BASIC on the rate of change alongside the current value, which is the temporal structure the bureaus actually reward. That’s why the recommendations move scores instead of just describing them,” said Pranav Murali, Co-founder and Lead AI Engineer at GoCredit.

Already Used by Over 2 Lakh Indians
This is not a research preview. BASIC is already live on the GoCredit Android app, where it powers a feature called Credit Score Boost — used by over 2 lakh Indians so far.

Among the 50,000 monthly active paying subscribers, 10,000 — one in five — have improved their credit scores by 50 points or more within two months of actively following BASIC’s recommendations.

For these 10,000 borrowers, that 50-point gain is not abstract. For someone near the prime threshold, it can be the difference between a loan rejection and an approval. It can mean an EMI at 12% instead of 22%. For many, it is the first time their credit score has moved in their favour in years — and the first time anyone has shown them how to make it happen.

“We meet borrowers every day who tell us they’ve been trying to fix their score for two or three years and getting nowhere. Two months later they show us their app and the number has moved up by 60, 70, 80 points. That moment — when a borrower realises they’re not stuck, that the system isn’t a black box anymore — that’s why we built this,” said Anupam Acharya, Co-founder and CEO of GoCredit.

Now Opening to Lenders: The ScoreBoost API
TARA AI Labs is also announcing today that the same engine is now available to financial institutions through the ScoreBoost API. The API is live with select pilot partners.

For the first time, a lender selling a loan, credit card, or BNPL product can show a borrower — right at the point of sale — how that product will affect their credit score over the next 6 to 12 months. A consumer comparing two credit cards can see, before signing up, which one is more likely to help their score and which one might hurt it. A lender offering a secured loan can show the borrower exactly how the product fits into their improvement journey.

“Indian lenders today sell loans without showing customers the consequence on their credit profile. That information asymmetry has been one of the most under-discussed problems in retail lending. ScoreBoost API closes it. A lender can integrate our engine and tell a borrower: here is what this product will do to your credit score. It changes the conversation from ‘do you qualify?’ to ‘is this the right product for where you’re trying to go?,” said Shubham Arawkar, Co-founder and CTO of GoCredit.

ScoreBoost API is currently in pilot with select NBFCs and digital lending platforms. Broader availability will be announced later in 2026.

Privacy and Regulatory Architecture
BASIC works only on consumer-consented credit data, accessed through official APIs under the consumer-initiated credit information report framework of the Credit Information Companies (Regulation) Act, 2005. All data handling also complies with India’s Digital Personal Data Protection Act, 2023. No bank account access, no SMS reading, no invasive data collection — by design.

BASIC is deployed strictly as a consumer-facing advisory system. Its outputs are not routed — through any production pathway — into GoCredit’s lending decisions, underwriting models, or partner lenders’ scoring engines. The advisory model and the lending stack are operationally separated systems.

“A model trained to help consumers improve their scores shouldn’t simultaneously be used to judge them. We enforce that separation operationally — BASIC’s outputs have no production pathway into any lending decision engine, ours or anyone else’s,” said Shubham Arawkar, Co-founder and CTO of GoCredit.

In a powerful confluence of heritage, craftsmanship and social impact, M3M Foundation, in collaboration with Jaipuri Banno, unveiled its much-awaited couture showcase, “Ada-E-Hind”, at Times Lifestyle Week 2026 held at Grand Hyatt, Gurgaon.

M3M Foundation, in Collaboration with Jaipuri Banno, Unveils “Ada-E-Hind” at Times Lifestyle Week 2026

Presented under the thematic concept Threads of India: Woven Stories, Shared Soul, the showcase celebrated India’s timeless textile traditions while creating a national platform for grassroots artisans and emerging designers from rural communities.

Following the success of Dream Weavers 1.0 at Times Lifestyle Week 2024, M3M Foundation once again returned to the runway to amplify hidden talent and bring India’s craft heritage to the forefront. Last year’s initiative introduced six young rural designers to the world of fashion. This year, the Foundation deepened that vision by taking students directly to the source of India’s most iconic crafts.

Under the visionary leadership of Dr. Payal Kanodia, Chairperson and Trustee, M3M Foundation enabled four students from its iMpower Academy for Skills — Aanchal, Geeta, Nishu and Nancy — to embark on an immersive journey across India.

Over the course of three months, the young creators travelled through narrow streets, artisan homes and modest workshops across the country, often in economically vulnerable communities where craftsmanship remains the backbone of household livelihoods. They learned directly from weavers, embroiderers, printers and dyers, understanding not only the techniques but also the stories, struggles and traditions woven into every thread.

The journey began in Lucknow, where the students explored delicate Chikankari and Zardozi embroidery. In Varanasi, they witnessed the intricate process of Banarasi silk weaving. In Patiala, they learned the vibrant art of Phulkari embroidery. In Kanchipuram and Chennai, they experienced the richness of Kanjivaram silk and Kalamkari. In Bhuj and surrounding artisan villages such as Ajrakhpur and Bhujodi, they discovered Ajrakh printing, Bandhani and handloom traditions. In Rajkot, they observed the highly complex Patola weaving technique, and in Rajasthan, they immersed themselves in the timeless craft of hand block printing.

Mentored by Neetu Mahajan, Director of Jaipuri Banno and designer of the collection, the students transformed their learnings into a contemporary fashion narrative rooted in heritage and purpose.

The result was a stunning collection of 33 ensembles, each thoughtfully designed to carry the spirit of the regions and communities from which they emerged. Each garment represented countless hours of artisan labour and embodied the cultural memory of communities that have preserved these traditions for generations.

The collection was brought to life on the runway by acclaimed actor Neetu Chandra as the lead showstopper, joined by digital creator Garima Chaurasia and Nisha Yadav in a special showstopper appearance. They were accompanied by Neetu Mahajan and the four young creators from iMpower Academy, and Dr. Aishwarya Mahajan, Managing Trustee and President, M3M Foundation, receiving an enthusiastic response and standing ovation from the audience.

Speaking on the occasion, Dr. Payal Kanodia said, “At M3M Foundation, we believe that true empowerment begins when hidden talent is given visibility, dignity and opportunity. Ada-E-Hind is not merely a fashion showcase; it is a tribute to India’s artisans, whose hands preserve our cultural soul, and to the young creators who prove that dreams from the smallest villages can reach the grandest stages.”

Through its iMpower Academy for Skills implemented by the National Institute of Education and Development (NIED), M3M Foundation continues to equip young people from underserved communities with vocational training, mentorship and exposure. Ada-E-Hind extends this mission by connecting education with heritage, creativity and dignified livelihoods.

With Threads of India and the unveiling of Ada-E-Hind, M3M Foundation and Jaipuri Banno have once again demonstrated that when purpose meets creativity, fashion becomes a powerful medium for recognition, preservation and social transformation.

India’s mobile gaming landscape is rapidly evolving as users increasingly gravitate toward free-to-play and socially engaging entertainment experiences. With millions of smartphone users seeking quick, interactive, and accessible forms of digital entertainment, casual multiplayer gaming has emerged as one of the fastest-growing segments within the country’s online entertainment ecosystem.
 

Zupee Strengthens Focus on Free-to Play Social Gaming
 

As gaming preferences continue to shift toward mobile-first and community-driven experiences, platforms focused on free-to-play gameplay are witnessing growing engagement across audiences. Zupee Ludo, one of India’s leading skill-based gaming platforms with a community of over 100 million users, continues to strengthen its focus on skill-based free-to-play social gaming experiences designed around accessibility, entertainment, and responsible gameplay.
 

The Rise of Free-to-Play Social Gaming in India

India is home to one of the world’s largest mobile gaming communities, with more than 195 million mobile gamers and over 8.45 billion game downloads recorded in FY 2024-25, according to industry reports by Sensor Tower and Statista. As the industry continues to expand, user preferences are increasingly shifting toward accessible, socially engaging, and entertainment-first gaming experiences.
 

Zupee has long focused on offering free-to-play and skill-based gaming experiences for Indian users and continues to strengthen this ecosystem as the mobile gaming industry evolves.

Addressing User Concerns and Misinformation

In recent months, several online sources and social media discussions have created confusion around online gaming platforms in India, with some misleading articles incorrectly suggesting that apps like Zupee are banned. Much of this confusion has come from ongoing discussions around regulations related to real-money gaming (RMG) platforms in 2025.
 

It is relevant to note that Zupee ceased operating all real-money games on August 22, 2025, following the promulgation of The Promotion and Regulation of Online Gaming Act, 2025. Thereafter, Zupee’s platform model transitioned to, and presently remains focused on free-to-play gameplay experiences, making it different from platforms built around real-money gaming structures. Users can continue to access the platform, enjoy skill-based Ludo games, participate in real-time matches, and engage with the app through casual and social gaming formats that do not involve depositing or staking money.
 

The growing misinformation has also led many users to search online, “Is Zupee banned in India?” or “Can users still play Zupee?”
 

Zupee has clarified that the platform is not banned and users can enjoy free to play games on the app without any concern. With a growing community of over 100 million users and a strong presence among the top free board game apps on the Google Play Store, Zupee continues to offer free-to-play Ludo experiences designed around skill, entertainment, and social gameplay. Users can download Zupee, play Ludo for free and win cash/money rewards.
 

Zupee Continues to Build an Inclusive Gaming Ecosystem

Zupee continues to strengthen its focus on making online gaming more accessible, engaging, and socially interactive for a wider audience across India. With free-to-play gameplay experiences becoming increasingly popular among mobile users, the platform aims to deliver quick, skill-based, and entertaining gaming formats designed for modern digital audiences.

The app continues to focus on:

• Fast and engaging online games

• Mobile-first accessibility

• Social gaming practice

• Skill-based formats

• Fair gameplay

• Smooth and secure user experience

• Responsible gaming practices

• Community-driven entertainment
   

This approach has enabled Zupee to continue engaging players who are increasingly seeking casual, social, and mobile-friendly gaming experiences. Reflecting its growing popularity among Indian gamers, Zupee is also ranked #2 in the Top Free Board Games category on the Google Play Store in India.
 

A Focus on Responsible Gaming

As online gaming becomes more mainstream in India, responsible gaming practices are becoming increasingly important across the industry. Zupee states that user safety, transparency, and platform integrity remain central to its long-term vision.
 

The app continues to invest in creating a secure gaming environment while adapting its products to evolving market expectations and digital standards. By prioritizing responsible engagement and free gameplay, Zupee aims to contribute positively to India’s growing gaming ecosystem.
 

The Future of Online Mobile Gaming Industry in India

India’s online gaming sector is entering a new phase driven by regulation, innovation, and changing consumer behaviour. Platforms that prioritize transparency, accessibility, and user-centric experiences are expected to play an important role in shaping the future of digital entertainment in the country.
 

As part of this evolving landscape, Zupee continues to position itself as a platform focused on skill-based gaming experiences designed for modern Indian users. With its free-to-play approach and continued emphasis on responsible gaming, the platform aims to remain a trusted destination for millions of players across India.

The ECOVACS WINBOT is the world’s #1 bestselling robotic window cleaner, according to data from global market intelligence firm IDC. ECOVACS Robotics, a global leader in service robotics, pioneered this category in 2011 with the WINBOT 5 Series – the world’s first robotic window cleaner. ECOVACS’ “Created for Ease” philosophy led it to create the WINBOT to bring consumers a smarter, safer, and easier way to tackle window cleaning.

The World’s 1 Bestselling Robotic Window Cleaner: ECOVACS WINBOT Restores Crystal-Clear Views with Ease

Keeping the large windows and expansive views in today’s modern homes crystal-clear can be risky, inconvenient, and labor-intensive. Windows are constantly exposed to dust, pollution, and severe weather. For those in high-rise buildings, cleaning exterior windows can be dangerous and requires expensive professional help. Manual cleaning often leaves streaks. Scrubbing large glass surfaces can be tiring. These challenges lead many to avoid cleaning their windows altogether.

Robotic window cleaners like the ECOVACS WINBOT help solve these pain points so users can enjoy clear views from edge to edge with ease. Consumer demand for them is surging, according to IDC, which found that the ECOVACS WINBOT was the world’s #1 selling robotic window cleaner in 2025.1 It has also been #1 in China for three consecutive years according to data from All View Cloud (AVC).

A Trusted Choice for Effortless Cleaning
ECOVACS is a pioneer in service robotics. Knowing that consumers want effortless smart home cleaning solutions beyond floor cleaning, it began developing robotic window cleaners 15 years ago. Since the first WINBOT, the line has undergone seven generations of core upgrades. Leveraging its R&D strengths, ECOVACS continually sets new industry benchmarks with innovative technologies that make window cleaning safer, faster and more convenient for users.

ECOVACS WINBOT’s innovations for enhanced cleaning performance are designed to effectively remove dust, rain stains, and pollution buildup. For example, ECOVACS’ TruEdge Technology is designed to clean edges and hard-to-reach corners — ensuring spotless, crystal-clear views — and its Three-nozzle Wide-angle Spray Technology enables a deeper clean.

Other innovations enhance convenience. The all-in-one OMNI Station is a control panel, charger, stabilizer, and portable storage space for the WINBOT and its accessories. It is also equipped with a safety rope with a tensile strength of up to 100KG. Other WINBOT safety features include optimized suction power, anti-drop protection, edge detection, smart navigation for obstacle avoidance, and insurance protection.

The ECOVACS WINBOT’s sales performance is also impressive. In 2025, its sales volume exceeded 1 million units, with cumulative global sales surpassing 2.6 million units.

From entry-level to premium models, ECOVACS offers a diverse WINBOT product portfolio across different markets to meet users’ needs for taking care of various glass surfaces, including glass panels, balcony glass, and shower screens. The ECOVACS WINBOT family revolutionizes window cleaning with cutting-edge technologies that bring users a high-performance, convenient and hassle-free experience that ensures crystal-clear views with absolute peace-of-mind.
