Tech travel platform ixigo on Wednesday reported a 28 per cent year-on-year (Y-o-Y) rise in net profit to Rs 19 crore in the first quarter of financial year 2026 (FY26), as it continues to leverage its strategy of providing travel services to the next billion users. The company had posted a net profit of Rs 14.8 crore in the same period last year. Its revenue from operations rose 73 per cent to Rs 314.4 crore from Rs 181.8 crore in the year-ago period.

The company's bus and train ticketing categories gained traction with a 26 per cent and 74 per cent rise in passenger segments, respectively. The train category was the largest contributor to revenue with 41.3 per cent, while buses contributed 24.4 per cent. The flights category made a contribution of 32.8 per cent.

Tara Sutaria Brings Old School Charm To Her Latest Look With Soft Brown Eyelids And Glossy Lips

Tara Sutaria has proven time and again that she loves all things bling. While her fashion closet has versatility, the actress' makeup choices strike the perfect balance between allure and glam tones. For her latest photoshoot, the diva opted for a natural makeup that came with a dewy finish. The contour along the cheekbones gave definition to her look. The subtle highlighter enhanced the natural glow. View this post on Instagram A post shared by TARA???? (@tarasutaria) Brilliant strokes of blush accentuated her cheekbones. The soft brown eyeshadow was blended to give a diffused effect and the thin line of eyeliner added an edge to the look. Mascara enhanced her lashes, providing volume and length without appearing overly dramatic. The look was accentuated with a soft, pretty pink lipstick. Even the transition to a red bold lip did justice to the overall look of the Student of the Year 2 actress! It brought an old school charm to the look and we love the bob hairstyle as well! Tara Sutaria's signature makeup is subtle and minimal. We often see her sporting her soft glam look, from a casual dinner outing to her red carpet appearances. Overall, the makeup emphasised her natural beauty with a polished and sophisticated look. It focused on enhancing her features subtly without heavy or dramatic elements. Suitable for professional or formal settings, her makeup was a perfect blend of matte and luminous finish. Tara kept it super chic as she sported sleek and short wet hair with an all-black gloved top.
