Worried About E20? What It Means for Your Car and the Climate
Season 2 · Episode 27
vendredi 22 août 2025 • Duration 17:55
India is an energy-insecure country. Last year, the country imported 87.7% of the crude oil it consumed. To change that, the government introduced blended petrol in 2018. At first, it was petrol with 10% ethanol.
By the end of 2025, the government will roll out petrol with 20% ethanol. In fact, in July, the Road Ministry published draft norms and sought feedback on allowing manufacturers to make 100% ethanol-fueled vehicles.
But, auto-owners say they feel shortchanged. They’ve noticed that their vehicles are giving them a lower mileage since the government introduced blended petrol. They’re also worried about ethanol corroding the insides of their bikes and cars.
In the latest episode of The Signal Daily, we’ll hear from Indian consumers as well as automotive and biofuel experts. Why are consumers upset at this policy? What do they want instead?

What You Need to Know About CIBIL Scores
Season 2 · Episode 26
jeudi 14 août 2025 • Duration 13:07
Earlier this year, it was reported that a man didn’t get hired because of his poor CIBIL score. Another person was about to get married, but when the bride’s uncle checked his CIBIL score, the uncle decided to call off the wedding. Today, your CIBIL score isn’t just a number, it’s your financial reputation.
Still, many Indians aren’t aware of what their CIBIL scores are. A YouGov and CRED survey of over 5000 Tier 1 city respondents with at least one credit card found that 40% of surveyors were unaware of their credit score. 30% of them admitted to inadequate credit management knowledge.
In the latest episode of The Signal Daily, we’ll learn about what CIBIL scores are. How can you check it and what are the best practices for maintaining a good CIBIL score?

Luxury On A Budget: Why Young Indian Women Love Minis
Season 2 · Episode 17
vendredi 27 juin 2025 • Duration 16:30
India’s beauty market is huge – the country has the sixth largest market in the world. But, our per capita spending on beauty products is still low: only about 15 dollars. That’s 1200 rupees. For context, in the US, per capita spending on beauty is 335 dollars and the global average for this figure is 72 USD.
That’s also one reason why ‘minis’ of beauty products are particularly popular in India. In the West, people use minis as samples or as travel packs. With more luxury brands like Rare Beauty, Laneige and Innisfree coming to India, Indian consumers prefer to buy 'minis' of these luxury products.
In the latest episode of The Signal Daily, we’ll hear from Indian consumers and learn about why they love buying minis of luxury beauty products. What does that say about aspiration, affordability, and identity among Indian women today?
