In this episode of Daybreak, host Snigdha Sharma sits down with Megha Jose, CEO of Fortune Wealth Management and founder of Thryve, an investment advisory firm, to explore the idea of “Lazy Girl Investing.” Can women really build wealth without the burnout?

Inside the metal market’s most surprising meltdown

Jewellers are refusing orders, mutual funds are freezing ETFs and Diwali shopping just got a lot more expensive. The thing is, silver supply has been trailing demand for years now. And now, the gap is finally showing. What's behind this sudden shift? Tune in. Daybreak is produced from the newsroom of The Ken, India’s first subscriber-only business news platform.

What’s driving this change and does India’s next generation of uber-rich business owners still want to build anything at all? Tune in.

Why only 1 in 10 interns join the PM Internship Scheme

Launched last year with the promise of 10 million internships, the Prime Minister’s Internship Scheme was meant to bridge the gap between young graduates and India’s job market. A year on, the numbers tell a different story. Fewer than 9,000 interns have joined so far, even as top companies like TCS and Reliance came on board. Behind the slow start lie deeper problems — poor funding exacerbating a mismatch between corporate expectations and student realities. Tune in.

Ozempic sparked the weight-loss drug trend. Mounjaro is leading it in India

Six months after launch, Eli Lilly’s Mounjaro is already India’s second-biggest pharma brand, ahead of antacid Pan and just behind antibiotic Augmentin. Days later, Eli Lilly announced a $1 billion investment and a new Hyderabad hub. The timing is no accident: India has one of the world’s largest obese and diabetic populations, Ozempic’s patent expires in 2026, and local pharma giants are gearing up with cheap GLP-1 generics. In this episode of Daybreak, we unpack how this landscape presents both an opportunity and a challenge for Eli Lilly.

After Deloitte's blunder, the Big 4 may learn a new AI rule: being wrong first beats being right late

When Deloitte refunded part of the A$439,000 it was paid by the Australian government for a report riddled with AI-generated errors, it seemed like the perfect moment to slow down. Instead, the firm doubled down and announced a global rollout of Anthropic’s Claude to nearly half a million employees. That decision captures the strange new logic shaping the Big 4 consulting companies. PwC, EY, KPMG, and Deloitte are no longer just using AI, they are performing it. Audit and tax work has slowed, regulation is tightening, and growth now depends on signalling technological boldness. In this new credibility economy, hesitation looks worse than failure. A mistake is no longer a crisis; it has become proof that you are early. But as every firm rushes to prove its AI edge, sameness is setting in, and the next real differentiator may not be accuracy at all. What could it be then? Tune in.

At Fogg deodorant’s owner, KKR’s PE math clashes with family-business wisdom

Founded by the Patel brothers, Vini Cosmetics built Fogg into the country’s top deodorant brand with its no-gas formula, and high-margin pitch. In 2021, global giant KKR swooped in with a $600 million deal, valuing Vini at $1.2 billion—the biggest private equity play in Indian FMCG. But the partnership never clicked. The founders refused to fully step back, while KKR struggled with the quirks of a brand-led business in a market it didn’t quite understand. Advertising budgets were slashed, rivals like Denver surged ahead, and new launches flopped. Today, Vini is still profitable, but its margins are shrinking, and Fogg’s dominance is fading. And even as the founders return fully into the picture, it's future looks foggy at best. Tune in.
