That’s Patanjali co-founder Acharya Balakrishna, doing his best to confuse the rest of us—hoping we will forget Baba Ramdev’s grand announcement of “corona’s first Ayurvedic clinically-controlled trial based, evidence-based, research-based medicine” that assures “a 100% recovery rate in seven days and 0% death." Mint has more on the so-called Coronil trials and why the latest misstep reveals Patanjali’s growing troubles. Illustration: Parth Savla |

A message from the editorWe officially turn one-month old today. And what a brilliant launch month it has been! We started on this adventure on a wing and a prayer—and the priceless support of the first batch of founding members who created a critical lifeline in the very first week. We cannot thank you all enough!
We have earned ourselves some breathing space for now. But we still need to grow—and quickly—to both survive and thrive. So I’m asking all of you to please share the love and spread the word.
And be sure to use your referral link—available at the bottom of your daily email and your account page on our website (top right corner of the nav bar). It helps us keep track of all the excellent people you bring on board. Also: we can then offer you a gift of appreciation—either twelve more months of splainer or an Amazon gift card for Rs 1,000. (All of this is laid out in our FAQ)
Every founding member or annual subscription is a building block for a bright and long future together. Share splainer on your social networks, via WhatsApp, with friends, fam and colleagues. And if you harass perfect strangers, know that we will love you even more.

The culprit: The lockdown which first deflated the owed amount between March and May—and has now sent it soaring. Here’s a short explanation of how this happened.
