## Resource

In today’s episode of Tech3 by Moneycontrol, we unpack how PhonePe and Google Pay’s combined UPI market share has slipped below 80% for the first time as smaller rivals gain ground. We also look at Bengaluru’s position as Asia’s third-largest startup ecosystem, now valued at nearly $153 billion. Plus, Starlink’s India launch faces fresh regulatory and security scrutiny, while Telegram moves the Delhi High Court against the Centre’s temporary restriction ahead of the NEET-UG retest.
