Amazon India is planning to close its Fresh service, which delivers groceries within 4-24 hours, in 10 to 15 major cities as it pivots towards its quick commerce platform, Amazon Now. This decision comes as consumer behavior shifts, with a recent report indicating a decline in reliance on local kirana stores. Amazon Now, currently operating in six cities including Delhi, Bengaluru, and Mumbai, is expected to have 500 dark stores soon, adding about two facilities daily since December. In a separate development, Anthropic, a leading AI company, has reported a significant increase in its revenue run rate, now exceeding $30 billion, up from $9 billion at the end of 2025. This surge is attributed to a doubling of clients paying over $1 million annually, as well as a strategic partnership with Google and Broadcom for advanced computing resources. Other notable developments include Aman Gupta's Offbeat Studios raising ₹100 crore (approximately $12 million USD) and Cred's mutual fund platform Kuvera enhancing its offerings for wealth management.
