AMD to invest $400 million in India by 2028: Here’s what we know

US chipmaker Advanced Micro Devices said on Friday it will invest around $400 million in India over the next five years and will build its largest design center in the tech hub of Bengaluru. AMD’s announcement was made by its Chief Technology Officer Mark Papermaster at an annual semiconductor conference that started Friday in Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s home state of Gujarat. Other speakers at the flagship event include Foxconn Chairman Young Liu and Micron CEO Sanjay Mehrotra. Despite being a late entrant, the Modi government has been courting investments into India’s nascent chip sector to establish its credentials as a chipmaking hub. AMD said it will open its new design centre campus in Bengaluru by end of this year and create 3,000 new engineering roles within five years. “Our India teams will continue to play a pivotal role in delivering the high-performance and adaptive solutions that support AMD customers worldwide,” Papermaster said.

Zomato invites few lucky customers to get unlimited free deliveries, no surge fees and more

If you rely on Zomato for your dining needs, you got to read this. Zomato has come up with a “Amazon Prime-like” subscription plan that allows members to avail special services. It’s called the Zomato Pro Plus and will provide special benefits like unlimited free deliveries, no surge fees, no distance fee and more. However, this plan, unlike the Zomato Pro plan, has one massive caveat: you cannot buy it.

Similar to the early days of OnePlus’ invite plans, Zomato will distribute the invite to select customers starting today. The invites are limited in numbers and Zomato will disburse them via the app on August 2 (today) after 6 pm. Members will need to check for the invite within the app, and if they get it, they need to avail it quickly.

Zomato Pro Plus membership rolls out

Deepinder Goyal, the Founder and CEO of Zomato, detailed the plan’s benefits on Twitter but did not reveal the price one has to pay. Currently, all we know is that Zomato Pro Plus membership will include all the benefits of Zomato Pro membership and include some more. The extras that one can avail with this plan include unlimited free deliveries, no surge fees, and no distance fee.

The plan will also include all existing benefits from Zomato Pro plan, which includes up to 30 percent extra off on food deliveries, up to 40 percent off on dining experiences, and faster delivery. One has to pay Rs 200 for the Pro plan and the validity stands for 90 days.

“All Zomato Edition Black credit card holders will automatically be upgraded to Zomato Pro Plus. Everybody else will need to buy the Pro Plus upgrade from the Zomato app. Fatafat le lena, baad mein shayad  nahin milega,” writes Goyal in a follow-up tweet.

Will there be a higher tier plan for loyal Zomato members above the Pro Plus plan? “Soon maybe,” writes Goyal in response to a tweet that jokingly asks if we could get a Zomato Pro Plus Ultra Max (a sarcastic take on the iPhone 12 Pro Max and Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra).

It remains to be seen whether the Pro Plus plan remains a very limited invite-only affair, or it opens up to more people later.
