Boardrooms, startups, and markets—decoded. From corporate shakeups to funding rounds and policy shifts, bataSutra breaks down what’s really driving the business stories shaping tomorrow’s economy. Clear facts, smart context, no jargon.
Tech listings are reappearing but stability now beats pop. We explain why free float, anchor quality, and cash conversion matter more than oversubscription, show a practical checklist for reading DRHPs, and offer a short roster of deals to watch — plus one simple sizing rule for retail and pros.

Ad-share beats flat funds when fill holds; popular tracks can shave the cut. Grid compares Shorts, Reels, and TikTok on payout paths, music impact, and retention lift—plus a practical play: one clean-audio cut, recurring series, stacked links.
