1. Food menus can be hilarious. And guess which dish Anand Mahindra found on one of them? Needless to say, the enterprising businessman is never taking his wife to this restaurant.

2. The "good-natured' Elon Musk is not afraid of competition. The serial entrepreneur, who has been instrumental in starting the EV trend, reminded everyone last week that Tesla's patents are available for free use.

3. India is catching up to the electrification trend. Several municipal corporations are planning to adopt green mobility with the support of Mahindra & Mahindra, which is also starting an EV pilot with Uber later this month.

4. Employees, relax! Automation will not eat up your jobs. A recent report revealed that despite enhanced digitization, 76 per cent of Indian employers are planning to maintain their employee headcount with the aim to integrate them with the machines.

Here's the "news that entrepreneurs can use". Know what's trending in the Indian business world in 60 seconds.
