Workspace solutions provider IndiQube Spaces Ltd. (ISL) will open its ₹700 crore initial public offering (IPO) for subscription on Wednesday, July 23. The bidding window will remain open through July 25. Brokerages have offered mixed views on the IPO of IndiQube Spaces.

It said that the company’s transition to bundled offerings and upcoming ESG-aligned ‘Sustainability-as-a-Service’ initiatives are expected to improve yield per sq. ft. This, combined with scale, premium locations, and service-led differentiation, is likely to help IndiQube’s revenue growth outpace industry averages.

HomeMarket NewsPaytm shares get upgrades, targets revised higher after first profit without one-offs While Jefferies has upgraded its rating on Paytm and also raised its price target, Citi has raised its target on the stock, while maintaining its bullish stance. Brokerage firm Jefferies has upgraded shares of One97 Communications Ltd., parent company of payment services provider Paytm, to “buy” from its earlier rating of “hold”, on Wednesday, July 23. The upgrade comes after Paytm reported a net profit for the June quarter after market hours on Tuesday. This was the first net profit reported by the company excluding any one-offs. Besides Jefferies, other analysts covering the stock have also raised their price target. Along with the upgrade, Jefferies has raised its price target on Paytm to ₹1,250 from ₹900 earlier. Jefferies believes that while the Monthly Transacting Users (MTU) and Gross Merchandise Value (GMV) growth on a sequential basis is encouraging, but contributing margins will stabilise a little lower over the next two to three quarters. Paytm’s current valuation is at a discount to PB Fintech and the brokerage expects compounding-led returns for the stock. Clarity on payment aggregator license, reversion to BNPL / Wallets and MDR on UPI could be some positive catalysts for Paytm, according to Jefferies. Citi has also raised its price target on Paytm to ₹1,215, while maintaining its “buy” recommendation for the stock. It wrote in its note that the earnings beat was driven largely by incremental cost efficiencies and higher-than-expected benefits from relatively upfront nature of non-DLG contribution profits. While Paytm’s merchant business continues to do well, the consumer business remains tepid, although there are signs of recovery, according to Citi. Bernstein has maintained its “outperform” recommendation on Paytm with a price target of ₹1,100 per share, calling the June quarter profit an important milestone for the business. It said further that the business will remain profitable in the coming quarters but the sustainability of the current profit levels will be subject to sequential revenue growth. On the flip side, Macquarie has an “underperform” rating on Paytm with a price target of ₹760, which implies a significant downside from current levels. It said that there are potential levers for earnings upside going forward for the company, eve as personal loan disbursements remain muted. UBS too has retained its “neutral” recommendation on the stock, calling it a modest quarter for payments and market shares remaining flat in GMV. The company is guiding for EBITDA margin to be between 15% to 20% in two to three years. Out of the 19 analysts that have coverage on Paytm, 10 of them have a “buy” rating on the stock, six of them say “hold”, while three have a “sell” rating. Shares of Paytm ended near the highs of the day on Tuesday ahead of the results announcement at ₹1,053.1. The stock has risen over 3x from its all-time low of close to ₹300, which it fell to in February 2024. First Published:  Jul 23, 2025 7:21 AM IST Read More

HomeWorld NewsTrump says US to form venture with Japan for Alaska LNG exports Japan is “forming a joint venture with us in Alaska for the LNG,” US President Donald Trump told lawmakers in Washington. “They’re all set to make that deal now.” However, he didn’t provide further details on the Alaska venture and it wasn’t immediately clear whether the plans represented a handshake agreement or something more formal. By Bloomberg  July 23, 2025, 7:03:01 AM IST (Published) President Donald Trump said the US and Japan are close to a deal to jointly export liquefied natural gas from Alaska, a potential boost for a long-delayed project that’s struggled to gain traction. Japan is “forming a joint venture with us in Alaska for the LNG,” Trump told lawmakers in Washington. “They’re all set to make that deal now.” The president didn’t provide further details on the Alaska venture, however, and it wasn’t immediately clear whether the plans represented a handshake agreement or something more formal. The comments follow his announcement that the US reached a trade deal with Japan, which Trump said will see the Asian nation also commit to $550 billion worth of investments. One of the beneficiaries of any US-Japan trade deal could be the $44 billion Alaska LNG export project, which has been proposed in various forms for decades but has not managed to secure binding long-term contracts and investments. Japanese Prime Minister Shigeru Ishiba said in April that it should be included in a trade package with the US. It also isn’t certain that any agreement between the US and Japan will be enough for Alaska LNG to move forward, especially as the project still lacks concrete sales agreements. Unlike similar facilities on the US Gulf Coast, this one would be massive in scale, requiring the construction of an 800-mile (1,287 kilometer) pipeline across the state. Trump administration officials have encouraged investment from Asian allies in the proposed Alaska LNG venture, which has been repeatedly touted by the president. This includes pressing representatives from Japan, South Korea and Taiwan on the matter during a June trip to the Alaska. Japan was the world’s largest LNG buyer after China last year. White House spokespeople and Glenfarne Group, the developer of the Alaska LNG project, didn’t immediately respond to requests for comment. An official at Japan’s trade ministry said the country continues to have interest in LNG from Alaska. Read More

HomeMarket NewsJapan’s carmaker shares jump on US trade deal announcing 15% tariff Toyota Motor Corp. shares surged as much as 10%, the most since April 10, while Nissan Motor Co. gained as much as 9.4%. Automakers were the biggest gainers among 33 industry groups on the benchmark Topix index. The Topix was up 1.7% as of 9:28 a.m. in Tokyo. By Bloomberg  July 23, 2025, 6:55:16 AM IST (Published) Japan’s automaker shares surged after broadcaster NHK reported the US government will set 15% tariffs on car imports from the country, citing an unidentified Japanese official. That compares with the 25% tariffs US President Donald Trump had imposed earlier on the sector. Separately, Trump earlier said he reached a trade deal and will see broader tariffs on the country at 15%, also down from the 25% he had previously threatened. Toyota Motor Corp. shares surged as much as 10%, the most since April 10, while Nissan Motor Co. gained as much as 9.4%. Automakers were the biggest gainers among 33 industry groups on the benchmark Topix index. The Topix was up 1.7% as of 9:28 a.m. in Tokyo. Trump said on Truth Social that the pact calls for Japan to “open their country” to US automobile imports, as well as additional agricultural imports, without specifying further. Trump has repeatedly zeroed in on auto trade as he criticises trade imbalances with the country. Around 80% of Japan’s trade surplus with the US is in cars and car parts.

The recent success of utility tokens like Solana has demonstrated the sheer potential of blockchain technology when paired with scalable, real-world applications. Following this trajectory, another project is catching the attention of the crypto world, Ruvi AI (RUVI). Backed by innovative technology, transparency, and an impressive presale performance, analysts are predicting that Ruvi AI could soon become the next big utility token to dominate the charts. If you missed out on Solana’s meteoric rise, here’s why Ruvi AI may be your next opportunity to catch exponential gains. Built on Transparency and Security  Similar to successful tokens like Solana, Ruvi AI has laid a foundation of trust and security to attract early investors while mitigating risks. The project has undergone a third-party audit by CyberScope, one of the most trusted blockchain security firms in the industry. This ensures Ruvi AI’s smart contracts are not only secure but also scalable, offering peace of mind to investors who want to avoid the vulnerabilities often found in blockchain projects.  Adding another feather in its cap is Ruvi AI’s partnership with WEEX Exchange, a globally renowned crypto trading platform. This partnership guarantees post-presale liquidity, giving investors confidence that they’ll have access to a liquid market once Ruvi AI is listed. By providing both security and practical trading solutions, Ruvi AI sets itself apart as a reliable and attractive investment.  A Stellar Presale Performance  Ruvi AI’s presale success highlights its potential to make waves in the cryptocurrency market: Over $2.5 million raised, signaling strong investor confidence.  200 million tokens sold, reflecting growing demand.  A thriving community of more than 2,400 holders, forming a strong foundation for the ecosystem.  Currently priced at just $0.015 per token during its Phase 2 presale, Ruvi AI offers an affordable entry point for early adopters. Upon completing the presale, the price will rise to $0.07, representing an almost 5x ROI even before public trading begins. Analysts are optimistic about Ruvi AI’s valuation, predicting a $1 token price post-listing, which would mean a 66x ROI for initial investors.  This structured growth plan mirrors the early success of Solana, whose strategic development path turned it into a top blockchain platform. Real-World Applications Make Ruvi AI Stand Out  What differentiates Ruvi AI from speculative projects is its real-world utility. By leveraging artificial intelligence (AI) and blockchain technology, Ruvi AI offers scalable, practical solutions across industries like marketing, entertainment, and finance.  Optimizing Marketing Strategies  Ruvi AI empowers businesses with AI-powered tools that enhance advertising efficiency. By improving audience targeting and optimizing ad spending, these tools provide businesses with higher returns on investment, making Ruvi AI a valuable platform for companies of all sizes. Supporting Content Creators  For digital creators, Ruvi AI delivers blockchain-secured instant payouts, addressing the persistent issue of delayed payments. Furthermore, its AI-driven audience analytics help creators develop better strategies to engage their followers and monetize their content more effectively. Transforming Financial Transactions  Ruvi AI also brings innovation to global finance by offering fraud-resistant, low-cost solutions for cross-border payments. These features reduce transaction fees and processing times, making Ruvi AI a reliable option for businesses and individuals dealing with international transactions. By focusing on solving real-world problems, Ruvi AI ensures sustained demand for its token, setting the stage for long-term scalability and market presence.

Here’s a breakdown of the top investment tiers: VIP Tier 2 ($750 investment, 40% bonus): Total tokens received: 70,000 (50,000 base + 20,000 bonus).  Value at $0.07 per token: $4,900.  Value at $1 per token: $70,000.  VIP Tier 3 ($2,100 investment, 60% bonus): Total tokens received: 224,000 (140,000 base + 84,000 bonus).  Value at $0.07 per token: $15,680.  Value at $1 per token: $224,000.  VIP Tier 5 ($9,600 investment, 100% bonus): Total tokens received: 1,280,000 (double the allocation).  Value at $0.07 per token: $89,600.  Value at $1 per token: $1,280,000.  These tiers offer early adopters substantial advantages, making Ruvi AI an even more lucrative investment opportunity. Why Ruvi AI Could Be the Next Big Utility Token  Ruvi AI’s winning formula of transparency, innovation, and real-world value positions it as a standout player in the cryptocurrency space. From its CyberScope audit and WEEX Exchange partnership to its practical applications across industries, Ruvi AI is built for long-term success and scalability. Add to this its impressive early performance, $2.5 million raised, 200 million tokens sold, and a growing base of 2,400 holders, and Ruvi AI’s trajectory becomes clear.  For investors who missed out on the early days of Solana, Ruvi AI presents a second chance to capture massive returns in the fast-evolving crypto market.

The Pi Network community is buzzing with excitement after rumors surfaced on X that Pi might be getting listed on Binance. There are signs pointing to a possible listing, but no official confirmation has been made yet. One of the users shared a screenshot showing Binance-related features with “Binance Connect Support” and “Binance P2P Support” options. This caught a lot of attention as it hints at possible integration between Pi and Binance. A Binance listing would be a major development for the community as it would boost liquidity, attract developers, and validate Pi’s progress to the broader crypto world. Why Pi Network Isn’t Listed on Binance Yet? Analyst Kim H Wong shared why Pi Network is not yet listed on major exchanges like Coinbase and Binance. He pointed out three main reasons for this: Pi Network’s blockchain code is not fully open-source, and it has not completed a third-party security audit. And finally, it might not have formally applied for listing on these platforms yet. Currently, Pi Coin trades on popular exchanges like OKX, MEXC, and Bitget. Kim believes that Pi Network will address the open-source and audit issues over time. Analyst Urges Focus on Ecosystem Growth He believes that the focus should be on building the Pi ecosystem and driving mass adoption. With Pi’s $100 million venture fund and the Pi App Studio helping developers create apps with AI, the future looks bright for Pi. He also explained that while third-party security audits are key for getting listed on Coinbase and Binance, open-source code is not always required. However, having audited and transparent code builds trust. Pi Coin Price Set to Rise The Pi community expects the price to keep rising since the major token unlocks in July are over, and no big sell-offs are expected in August. While many altcoins have already jumped 20-50%, Pi coin is still catching up and is up over 6% in the past week. The technical charts also show Pi rebounding from oversold levels, signaling a potential uptrend.  It is currently trading at $0.4789, up 5.6% in the last 24 hours, with a trading volume of over $246 million. Analysts note that with fewer new coins unlocking and steady trading volume, the conditions are ideal for Pi Coin to rise. Dr Altcoin expects Pi’s price to likely start rising naturally by the end of August. In a latest update, Pi Network has introduced a new “Buy” feature in the Pi Wallet. This allows users to purchase Pi directly using fiat currency, credit/debit cards, or Google Pay, without the need to rely on other crypto exchanges. We’d Love to Hear Your Thoughts on This Article!

Remittix is emerging as a major force in the crypto space, gaining traction as a payment-focused coin that could challenge established giants like Cardano and Dogecoin. As both ADA and DOGE push through 2025 with renewed energy, a new question arises—can Remittix steal their crown? Cardano’s Ecosystem Keeps Expanding—But Growth Is Dragged Cardano continues to ride a bullish wave in 2025, due to on-chain upgrades, institutional backing, and community interest. Recent momentum stems from developments like the upcoming NIGHT airdrop and increased ETF interest. ADA is currently trading around the $0.60–$0.65 zone, with analysts forecasting it could pass $1.50 by year-end under favourable conditions. Still, its DeFi project adoption lags behind faster, newer networks, and while its ISO 20022 compliance boosts long-term use cases, traders have begun chasing more explosive upside elsewhere. Source: TradingView Dogecoin is Popular But Has No Innovative Ideas Behind It Dogecoin has managed to stay relevant largely due to its meme culture and institutional adoption in some niche payments. Price targets for DOGE dance near the $1 area, with experts projecting short-term rallies if market sentiment remains bullish. However, Dogecoin is often criticised for its slow upgrade cycle and limited utility. Recent volume surges show investor interest, but many believe DOGE’s long-term potential is capped without real innovation. Remittix: Best Crypto Presale Right Now? All Signs Point to Remittix Remittix is quietly shaking up the crypto space as the top PayFi solution to watch. At $0.0842, it’s sold over 560 million tokens and raised more than $16.7 million. With its wallet reveal and Q3 launch, it’s on track to hit its $18 million soft cap—and fast. Remittix supports crypto-to-fiat transactions across 30+ countries and is gaining real-world traction with use cases like SMEs sending bulk payments to freelancers in developing nations. It’s this cross-chain DeFi project potential that makes RTX a standout in the search for the next 100x crypto. Why Remittix is the best crypto presale of the year: Real-world utility: cross-border payments made easy Early stage crypto investment: over $16.6M raised Buy RTX token with a 50% bonus active now Upcoming crypto projects: wallet launching Q3 Low gas fee crypto project with over 40 crypto and 30 fiat pairs Remittix Is Quietly Becoming the Breakout Presale of 2025, giving investors exposure to what could be the most undervalued crypto project of the year. While Cardano and Dogecoin hold their place in today’s crypto conversation, projects like Remittix are fast becoming the top crypto to buy now for those eyeing utility, speed, and growth. From crypto staking to solving real-world payment bottlenecks, RTX might just become the next big altcoin of 2025. And if adoption continues, it could leave ADA and DOGE behind.

South Korea is taking big steps to catch up with the changing crypto world. After the United States passed the new GENIUS Act, the law aims to make clearer and safer rules for digital currencies. South Korea’s ruling party doesn’t want to be left behind.  They have just announced plans to fast-track fresh laws covering Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies. Why Speeding Up Crypto Laws Matters In a recent tweet post, Bitcoin Archive noted that South Korea’s ruling party plans to speed up crypto laws after the GENIUS Act in the U.S. The ruling Democratic Party believes faster legislation can protect users better while encouraging new business opportunities.  A senior lawmaker said delays aren’t an option. They want clear rules on how exchanges handle money and stablecoins, and how to stop fraud. Officials say the GENIUS Act proves big economies now take crypto seriously, and South Korea wants to lead, not fall behind. However, their plan focuses on key points such as tax rules, stablecoins, and investor safety.  Won-Based Stablecoin in the Works Beyond Bitcoin and Ethereum, South Korea is working on something closer to home, its stablecoin tied to the Korean won. Korea Investment and Securities is leading this push, hoping to launch a won-backed digital currency.  The idea is to make everyday payments, money transfers, and even complex financial deals faster and more stable. This move shows how the country is stepping up in the digital finance revolution. Many experts say national stablecoins like this could soon reshape how people send money and pay bills. Growing Public Interest in Cryptocurrencies The popularity of cryptocurrencies in South Korea is growing fast. Currently, over 25% of South Koreans aged 20 to 50 own crypto assets, and about 70% of them plan to increase their investments.  Many see digital currencies as an important part of their future savings and retirement plans, showing the increasing role crypto plays in everyday financial lives.

Meme coins have emerged from internet jokes into legitimate financial opportunities. Shiba Inu (SHIB) has long proven that meme magic can turn modest investments into life-changing returns. Analysts predict SHIB could 10x by 2026—turning a $100 investment into $1,000. But while SHIB continues its climb, a new contender has arrived, offering investors something potentially far more explosive. Meet Little Pepe ($LILPEPE)—a Layer 2-powered memecoin that’s not just rewriting the playbook but torching it in true meme fashion. Currently in its presale stage, $LILPEPE offers investors a rare chance to enter before launch, and the numbers suggest we may be looking at a generational opportunity. Based on its listing price, early backers could see a 14,026% ROI, dwarfing SHIB’s current forecasted returns. Let’s break down why $100 in SHIB might turn into $1,000—but that same $100 in $LILPEPE could grow into $14,126. SHIB’s Bullish Case: Predictable Yet Powerful Shiba Inu, currently trading around $0.00001449 (as of writing), has shown renewed bullish momentum. Fueled by an aggressive token burn mechanism, community loyalty, and ongoing development in DeFi and NFTs, analysts from platforms like CoinCodex, Binance, and Telegaon foresee SHIB hitting prices between $0.00004306 and $0.0000943 by 2026. If SHIB achieves the high end of this projection, that would mean a 6–7x return on your investment. In other words, a $100 investment today could realistically grow to $600–$1,000 over the next 18–24 months. Not bad at all—especially for a meme coin that already commands billions in market cap. But while SHIB’s potential seems capped by its current size and market saturation, $LILPEPE is only just beginning its story. The $LILPEPE Opportunity: A Baby Frog with Billion-Dollar Ambitions Little Pepe ($LILPEPE) isn’t just another green-faced meme token. It’s a next-generation Layer 2 blockchain project that combines ultra-low fees, high-speed security, and deep meme culture integration—all powered by its native ERC-20 token, $LILPEPE. As of writing, the token is priced at $0.0015 in its Stage 6 presale, with a total of $7.67 million raised out of its $8.825 million goal. Once it lists at $0.003, early investors will already see a 100% gain. But this is just the beginning. Should $LILPEPE reach a market price of even $0.21—a realistic target for a Layer 2 meme token with CMC listing, zero tax, and growing hype—your $100 investment today would be worth $14,126. That’s a projected ROI of 14,026%, achieved through presale positioning, market demand, and community-driven momentum. The Numbers: Why This ROI is Plausible To understand this better, let’s look at the math: Presale price: $0.0015 Listing price: $0.003 Target speculative price: $0.21 Price increase from presale to $0.21: 140x Investing $100 at $0.0015 would yield 66,666 $LILPEPE tokens. If the token hits $0.21, those tokens would be worth: 66,666 × $0.21 = $14,000+ And let’s not forget: $LILPEPE has now been officially listed on CoinMarketCap, a crucial validation step that brings legitimacy and visibility to a global crypto audience. Giveaway Alert: Win $77,000 in $LILPEPE To turbocharge excitement, Little Pepe has launched an eye-watering $777,000 giveaway. Ten lucky winners will receive $77,000 worth of $LILPEPE each, with over 50,000 entries already recorded. Entry is simple: Buy into the presale (minimum $100 required). Complete simple tasks: follow socials, tag friends, share content. Boost your odds with bonus actions. It’s the largest meme coin giveaway of 2025—and further proof that the Little Pepe team isn’t just building hype, they’re delivering it. Why LILPEPE Over SHIB? While SHIB offers relatively stable returns in a maturing ecosystem, LILPEPE brings raw asymmetric potential—the kind of high-risk, high-reward play that early SHIB and DOGE investors once benefited from. Here’s What Sets $LILPEPE Apart: Layer 2 blockchain: Not just a token but a whole scalable ecosystem. Zero Tax on buys and sells—no hidden costs. Robust Tokenomics: With 26.5% allocated to presale, 30% to chain reserves, and 13.5% for staking, it’s built to reward long-term holders. Strong Liquidity (10%) And Marketing Reserves (10%)—ensuring post-launch momentum. Community-First Focus: From the storytelling in its whitepaper to its meme-rich branding, this coin understands the importance of culture. Final Thoughts: The Frog That Might Outjump the Dog A $100 bet on SHIB might still make sense for conservative meme investors, but for those chasing life-changing ROI, $LILPEPE represents a once-in-a-cycle opportunity. The memecoin game rewards those who arrive early, trust the vision, and ride the waves of community-driven virality. With $LILPEPE’s presale nearing its end, CMC listing confirmed, and a headline-grabbing giveaway live, the window of maximum upside is closing fast. Will you settle for a 10x in SHIB—or aim for 140x with the meme monarch in the making? The swamp is stirring. Little Pepe is coming.

WASHINGTON, DC – JULY 15: U.S. Education Secretary Linda McMahon prepares to do a live TV interview … More with Fox News outside of the White House on July 15, 2025 in Washington, DC. The Department of Education quietly announced that student loan forgiveness under the IBR plan has been paused. (Photo by Anna Moneymaker/Getty Images) Getty Images The Department of Education has suspended student loan forgiveness under the Income-Based Repayment plan, or IBR. The IBR plan is one of several income-driven repayment plan programs offered to borrowers, and is the only current plan not subject to any legal challenge or court injunction. “Currently, IBR forgiveness is paused while our systems are updated,” announced the department in updated guidance on pending court challenges issued earlier this month. “IBR forgiveness will resume once those updates are completed.” The department’s announcement corroborates previous statements by former department officials. And it confirms what some borrowers who had reached the threshold for student loan forgiveness – but didn’t get a discharge – had already suspected. It is the first public confirmation from the department that student loan forgiveness under IBR has been halted, at least for now. Here’s what we know, and what borrowers can do. Student Loan Forgiveness Under IBR Is Not Blocked By Any Court Like all income-driven repayment plans, IBR uses a formula tied to a borrower’s income and family size to determine a borrower’s monthly payment requirement. Payments are then recalculated every 12 months. Borrowers who haven’t paid off their student loans in full by the end of their repayment term – which is 25 years for borrowers who took out their loans prior to July 1, 2014, and 20 years for those who took out loans on or after that date – would be entitled to student loan forgiveness. But IBR is unique in that it is not directly subject to any legal challenge right now. Last year, a group of Republican-led states filed a lawsuit to stop the SAVE plan, a new income-driven repayment option created by the Biden administration in 2023. A federal appeals court then issued an injunction blocking SAVE last summer. The court’s decision, as well as a subsequent ruling issued earlier this year, called into question whether student loan forgiveness was authorized under the federal statute that governs SAVE. This same statute also underlies two other income-driven plans – ICR and PAYE. But IBR was created separately by Congress, and the IBR statute expressly authorizes student loan forgiveness at the end of the 20- or 25-year repayment term. The appeals court acknowledged this in its recent rulings. As a result, student loan forgiveness under SAVE, ICR, and PAYE is blocked. But student loan forgiveness under IBR is not. The department confirmed this in its updated guidance on the pending litigation that was issued earlier in July. “Forgiveness as a feature of the SAVE, PAYE, and ICR Plans is currently paused, because those plans were not created by Congress,” said the department. “Generally, ED can and will still process loan forgiveness for the IBR Plan, which was separately enacted by Congress.” But despite this, the department is not processing student loan forgiveness under IBR for borrowers who reach the 20- or 25-year threshold (separate programs, like Public Service Loan Forgiveness, shouldn’t be impacted). And the department’s announcement confirms accusations leveled by a former official with the Office of Federal Student Aid, who suggested in a declaration filed in a separate legal challenge over mass layoffs at the department that the Trump administration might be violating the law by blocking debt relief under IBR. “It is my understanding that as of April or early May 2025, federal student loan borrowers who are eligible for income-based repayment cancellation were still not having their loans cancelled—a process that has been paused since July 2024—despite the statutory obligation to do so,” said the official. The same official also indicated that the department was having difficulty updating qualifying student loan forgiveness payment counts. IBR Student Loan Forgiveness Pause Is Related To Court Injunction, Says Department The Department of Education provided only a vague explanation for the suspension of student loan forgiveness under IBR, suggesting it was paused “while our systems are updated to accurately count months not affected by the court’s injunction” directed at the SAVE plan. The department may be referring to a federal appeals court ruling earlier this spring that expanded the court’s injunction blocking SAVE to include the entire underlying regulation that governs the SAVE plan. Some elements of these regulations also indirectly impact other income-driven repayment plans, including IBR. For example, the regulations allowed for certain deferment and forbearance periods to count toward student loan forgiveness under all income-driven plans (ICR, PAYE, SAVE, and IBR). Nevertheless, nothing in the recent court decisions associated with the SAVE plan legal challenges requires the department to halt student loan forgiveness under IBR. And no court has ordered the department to suspend discharges under IBR – something that is expressly required under statutes previously enacted by Congress. Student loan borrower legal groups have previously accused the Trump administration of using the recent court orders involving the SAVE plan to justify policy decisions that harm borrowers. “Instead of fixing the broken student loan system, Secretary McMahon is choosing to drown millions of people in unnecessary interest charges and blaming unrelated court cases for her own mismanagement,” said Student Borrower Protection Center executive director Mike Pierce in a statement earlier this month after the department announced that it would resume charging interest on student loans covered by the SAVE plan forbearance. Borrowers subject to the forbearance have had no interest accrual on their loans since the injunction was first announced last summer. Suspension Of Student Loan Forgiveness Comes Amid Other Program Disruptions The suspension of student loan forgiveness under IBR comes as the federal student loan repayment system is experiencing significant upheaval and turmoil. More than 1.5 million income-driven repayment applications remain stuck in a massive backlog as the Department of
