Zomato, one of India’s largest restaurant discovery and food delivery platform, faced a lot of heat this week due to an outdoor advertisement. Zomato is known for its quirky and witty puns based on pop culture such as “Acche din are finally here,” “Bol Baby Bol, Malai Tikka Roll,” “Mera pizza ghar aaya o Ram ji,” and “Oonchi hai building? Lift teri band hai?” However, this time around, the food tech startup seems to have crossed a line.

The recently published advertisement depicted the letters BC., and MC., (mac and cheese and butter chicken) written against a bright red background. But, the letters are also known as short expletives in the Hindi language. The advertisement went viral on social media with people calling the advertisement cheap, sexist and crass while some found it extremely hilarious.

The marketing head of Zomato Pramod Rao apologized for the banner and is now working on removing it from the streets. The ad was deployed in Delhi, Mumbai, Bengaluru and Kolkata, among other cities. Zomato’s co founder Pankaj Chaddah also tweeted an apology mentioning it was never their intention to offend people.

Zomato’s Creative Director Akshar Pathak also tweeted saying the company was already looking for ways to replace the creative.

This is not the first time the company faced backlash over advertisements. In 2015, Zomato boasted about an increase in late night orders after conducting an advertisement campaign on obscene websites. While the strategy seemed to work, the company had to pull the plug on the campaign and issue a public apology.

PayU Gets Final RBI Nod to Operate as Payment Aggregator Ahead of 2025 IPO

Published

on

PayU

PayU India, owned by Prosus, has received final approval from the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) to operate as an online payment aggregator, a year after getting in-principle approval in April 2024. This authorization allows PayU to onboard new merchants and offer digital payment solutions, joining other major players like Razorpay, CCAvenue, and BillDesk.

The RBI’s nod comes as PayU prepares for its planned IPO in the second half of 2025, following a delay from its original 2024 timeline due to market conditions. The company, which serves over 450,000 merchants, reported $319 million in revenue from its core payments and credit business in the first half of FY25.

PayU stated that the approval will help it build a resilient, compliant, and innovation-driven institution, supporting merchants of all sizes and advancing the Digital India vision. The company has also strengthened its risk management and expanded its presence in real-time payments through a strategic stake in Mindgate Solutions.

Google’s Iconic ‘G’ Logo Gets First Update in 10 Years

Published

on

Google has refreshed its iconic ‘G’ logo for the first time in nearly 10 years, replacing the familiar solid blocks of red, yellow, green, and blue with a smooth, vibrant gradient that blends these colors seamlessly. This subtle update gives the logo a softer, more fluid, and modern appearance, aligning with Google’s evolving digital identity and current design trends.

The new gradient transitions smoothly from red to yellow, yellow to green, and green to blue, making the logo more visually appealing and adaptable across various devices, especially on mobile platforms. This redesign also reflects Google’s growing emphasis on artificial intelligence, echoing the gradient style used in the branding of Google Gemini, the company’s AI-generative assistant.

The updated ‘G’ logo has started rolling out on iOS through the Google Search app and on some Android devices, particularly Pixel phones running the Google app beta version 16.18. However, most other platforms, including the web and non-Pixel Android devices, still display the classic solid-color logo. A wider rollout is expected in the coming weeks.

So far, Google’s main wordmark and other product logos like Chrome, Maps, and Gmail remain unchanged. Given the shift toward gradient designs and AI-inspired visuals, similar updates to other Google icons may follow in the future.

In summary, this first major update to the ‘G’ logo since 2015 signals a subtle but meaningful shift in Google’s branding strategy, blending tradition with innovation as the company deepens its focus on AI and modern design aesthetics.

Ixigo Halts Bookings for Flights and Hotels to Turkey, China

Ixigo_StartupStories

Indian online travel platform ixigo has suspended all flight and hotel bookings to Turkey, China, and Azerbaijan in response to these countries expressing support for Pakistan after India’s military strikes-dubbed ‘Operation Sindoor’-against terror bases in Pakistan and Pakistan-Occupied Kashmir. The move, announced by CEO Aloke Bajpai on X, was described as an act of solidarity with India during heightened diplomatic tensions following the Pahalgam terror attack.

ixigo’s decision aligns with similar actions by other Indian travel companies, including EaseMyTrip and Cox & Kings, which have also restricted travel services to Turkey, China, and Azerbaijan. The suspensions come amid widespread calls for boycotts after these countries condemned India’s military response and backed Pakistan.

The travel industry’s collective response underscores how geopolitical developments are influencing business decisions, with Indian companies emphasizing national interests and unity in the face of international criticism
