The Light We Share

Dear Insighter,

This Diwali, as lamps brighten our homes and streets, we find ourselves thinking about a more enduring light: ideas that cut through the fog. That is the light you have helped keep alive — by showing up, reading closely, and trusting us with your time.

When we started BasisPoint, we imagined a space where serious thinking could breathe, where people who have worked in policy, markets, and newsrooms could speak without having to flatten everything into a headline. It wasn’t a grand plan — more a feeling that there was space for writing that thought a bit harder and reached a bit deeper.

None of it would matter without readers like you. Your engagement, notes, shares, and quiet encouragement have turned a platform into a conversation. You have given this space a standard to live up to, week after week.

In a year when the noise grew louder, your attention helped us keep the signal steady. Together, we have nudged the debate forward, added a few watts of understanding to India’s economic and policy discourse, and kept curiosity at its centre.

What we feel most this Diwali is gratitude — for your trust, your time, and the seriousness with which you read. We do not take it for granted. BasisPoint is stronger because you are here.

We look ahead to more clear-eyed analysis, more ideas worth arguing over, and new formats we hope you will enjoy.

Wishing you and your family a wonderful, restful, and truly bright Diwali.

With warm regards

Sincerely

Kalyan Ram
