By easing the financial commitments associated with homeownership and recognising the contribution of its sales network, Sayaji Realty aims to build on the momentum of the festive season.\r\nCommenting on the initiative, Mihir Bhatia, Joint Managing Director, Sayaji Realty, said, “As Mumbai’s real estate market continues to evolve, buyers are placing greater emphasis on location, the quality of the residential offering and the financial structure of their potential purchase. Channel partners, meanwhile, play an integral role in matching buyers with properties from our portfolio that are best-suited to their evolving lifestyles. Our festive offers respond to these priorities through differentiated benefits. We see this as an opportunity to strengthen customer relationships and amplify interest in our residential projects.”\r\nAt Mio Solace, Khar West, buyers are being offered an assured rental of ₹2 lakh per month during the construction phase. The development, which offers lavish 3 BHK residences priced at ₹6.50 crore onwards, combines a boutique residential setting with amenities spanning wellness, recreation and work, including a swimming pool, fitness centre, yoga deck, business centre and rooftop lounge. The benefit gives investors greater assurance as they evaluate the property’s long-term value and rental potential.\r\nAdditionally, Mio Miraya has introduced an exclusive 50:50 payment plan, with 50% of the agreement value payable initially, followed by 20% on completion of the top slab and the remaining 30% at possession, making payments easier for homebuyers.

The project, which features sea-view residences on freehold land, includes more than 14 amenities such as an infinity pool, fitness amenities, a pickleball court and a private mini-theatre. Located in Bandra West, the development offers access to established dining, retail and social infrastructure, as well as key business districts.\r\nTo incentivise channel partners, Sayaji Realty has also introduced a progressive rewards programme across all qualifying projects with the applicable reward rate increasing by 0.25 percentage points with each successive deal.

The programme is complemented by a Five-Day Assured Payment Promise and remains valid until November 30, 2026.\r\nThrough these festive privileges, Sayaji Realty brings together purchase benefits tailored to homebuyers’ financial planning and a progressive incentive structure for channel partners. The programme reinforces the company’s focus on building lasting relationships with customers and its sales network while offering distinct propositions across its residential portfolio.\r\nIf you object to the content of this press release, please notify us at pr.error.rectification@gmail.com.

It is India’s largest digital gift voucher platform, and investors can now own it on the stock market. The shares jumped about 12% on 5 November 2026 to around ₹205, a new high for the year.\r\nA simple business\r\nGYFTR buys gift vouchers from brands in bulk at a discount. It then sells them to shoppers, companies and banks, and keeps part of the discount as profit. Vouchers reach the customer in seconds by SMS, email or WhatsApp.\r\nShoppers:\r\n55 lakh+ users buy vouchers at up to 40% off, with no fees.\r\nCompanies:\r\n750+ firms use GYFTR for staff awards, dealer rewards and festive gifts.\r\nBanks:\r\n14 banks, including HDFC, SBI Card, Axis and PNB, run their reward points through GYFTR.\r\nIt has 400+ brands on the platform. It also earns from brand advertising, its AI shopping assistant Ema, and vouchers that are never used.\r\nThe numbers are taking off\r\nFY26 was the first full year of the voucher business. Revenue reached ₹396 crore, and profit after tax was ₹21.8 crore. Debt fell from ₹36 crore to just ₹1.25 crore, and net worth rose 40% to ₹485 crore.\r\nThe latest quarter, April to June 2026, was even stronger. Revenue was ₹155 crore, about 14 times the same quarter a year earlier. Consolidated profit was ₹5.3 crore. At this pace, GYFTR is already running at more than ₹600 crore of revenue a year.\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nRevenue (₹ crore)\r\nQ1 FY26\r\nQ2 FY26\r\nQ3 FY26\r\nQ4 FY26\r\nQ1 FY27\r\n\r\n\r\nStandalone\r\n11\r\n8\r\n90\r\n300\r\n155\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nMuch bigger than it looks\r\nThe listed company holds only part of the full GYFTR business so far. The wider group did about ₹2,520 crore of revenue in FY26. The promoter has said the plan is to bring the entire business into the listed company. If that happens, revenue could be several times higher than it is today.\r\nWhy we are bullish\r\n\r\nClear leader: about 60% of India’s digital voucher market.\r\nNew bank wins: a three-year deal with Punjab National Bank in August 2026, plus 27 more partners in the pipeline.\r\nFounders on board: Vouchagram founders Arvind Prabhakar and Puja Punj joined the board in August 2026.\r\nMore to come: plans for 450+ brands, its own vouchers, ONDC and HR-software rewards.\r\nStrong tailwinds: India has about 300 million online shoppers, and companies are moving from physical gifts to digital vouchers.\r\nNext trigger:Q2 results on 13 November 2026, the first quarter with the PNB deal and festive demand.\r\n\r\nOur view:GYFTR is the leader in a fast-growing market. It is profitable, almost debt-free, and has a much larger business still to come into the listed company. For investors who want to back India’s digital rewards boom, GYFTR stands out.","articleSection":"Business","datePublished":"2026-11-05T21:35:31+0530","dateModified":"2026-11-05T21:45:02+0530","inLanguage":"en-us","author":{"@type":"Person","name":"PNN","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com/user/pnnindia"},"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Marudhara Bharti English","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com/uploads/logo/logo_6ab9270c36c334-01124948.png"}},"image":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://pnndigital.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/11/PNN-2026-11-05T162534.872.jpg","contentUrl":"https://pnndigital.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/11/PNN-2026-11-05T162534.872.jpg"},"keywords":["GYFTR","India’s Gift Card King","Just Getting Started"]}</script>

These include securing a longer-term immigration pathway, exploring international business opportunities and considering options for their children’s education and future careers.\r\nDhananjaysinh Chudasama, an investment immigration specialist and Founder of EB5 Consultancy, said the change was visible in the enquiries received by the firm.\r\n“The profile of Indian applicants has become much more diverse. We are hearing from professionals who have spent several years overseas, younger entrepreneurs and families considering how international residency could fit into their plans. Their reasons for exploring these options are not always the same,” said Chudasama.\r\nOne segment drawing attention is Indian nationals already living in the US on visas such as H-1B, L-1 or F-1. Having spent years studying, working or building businesses in the country, some are exploring investment-based routes to permanent residency.\r\nFor these applicants, the decision is not necessarily about moving to a new country. They may already have established their lives in the US and are looking for a longer-term immigration option for themselves and their families.\r\nThe US EB-5 Immigrant Investor Programme remains a significant part of the firm’s advisory work. It allows eligible foreign investors to seek permanent residency through qualifying investments that meet prescribed requirements, including job creation.\r\nChudasama said younger applicants and entrepreneurs often approach investment migration with different considerations from those of traditional investors.\r\n“Some are looking at international opportunities through the lens of their careers or businesses. Others are thinking about their children’s education or the possibility of living and working in another country in the future,” he said.\r\nThis wider range of applicants is also reflected in the countries being considered. While the US remains a major destination, EB5 Consultancy advises Indian families on residency and citizenship programmes across Europe, the Middle East and the Caribbean. The choice of jurisdiction depends on factors such as the applicant’s objectives, financial position, family circumstances and programme requirements.\r\nFor business families, overseas residency may form part of a wider discussion about international expansion or succession planning. For professionals already abroad, the priority may be securing a longer-term immigration pathway. Others may want to understand the options available before deciding whether to pursue them.\r\nChudasama said families were increasingly approaching investment migration with specific questions rather than beginning with a preferred country or programme.\r\n“Investment migration is not a one-size-fits-all decision. Families need to understand why they are considering it, what they expect to achieve and whether a particular programme is suitable. For some, it may be the right option. For others, there may be no immediate need to pursue it,” he said.\r\nIf you object to the content of this press release, please notify us at pr.error.rectification@gmail.com.

It is a clean skincare brand built on a simple idea: fewer products, better ingredients and a routine you can stick to, from the first splash of cleanser to the last spritz of sunscreen.\r\nEvery iSKINN formula is free from parabens and mineral oils, is cruelty free and is built around clinically certified actives that each have a clear job to do. And now the brand is getting ready to launch its Vegan PDRN Collection, a five product range that brings the skin recovery of Korean beauty without any animal derived sources.\r\nLess routine. More glow.\r\nWhy Indian Skin and Indian Weather Need Smarter Skincare\r\nSkincare advice online often comes from places with mild, cool climates. Our reality is different. Across India, skin deals with strong sun for much of the year, thick humidity in the monsoon, dry air in winter and city pollution that settles on the face by evening.\r\nIndian skin tones also tend to show pigmentation more easily. A small breakout, a bit of sun or an irritated patch can leave a dark mark that lingers long after the original problem has gone. That is why a good skincare routine for Indian skin leans on three things: gentle cleansing that protects the barrier, calming and brightening ingredients, and a daily sunscreen you will actually reapply.\r\n\r\n\r\nWear sunscreen every day. Strong sun is a daily reality in most parts of India, so SPF is not just for beach holidays.\r\n\r\n\r\nGo light in humid months, with a little more cushioning when the air turns dry.\r\n\r\n\r\nChoose calming actives such as Centella to help skin recover from heat, pollution and irritation.\r\n\r\n\r\nAdd brightening care such as Alpha Arbutin for uneven tone and dark spots.\r\n\r\n\r\nPatch test first and introduce new actives one at a time.\r\n\r\n\r\nThe iSKINN range was shaped around exactly these needs: lightweight formulas, calming actives, brightening care and an SPF 50 PA++ spray that is easy to reapply on the go.\r\nThe Founder Behind iSKINN: Deb Banik\r\nFOUNDER, iSKINN\r\nCO-FOUNDER AND CEO, IMAGE CLINIC\r\n8 YEARS IN THE SKIN INDUSTRY\r\n \r\nBehind every brand worth remembering there is a person who cares about the details. For iSKINN, that person is Deb Banik.\r\nDeb is the Co-founder and CEO of IMAGE Clinic, and he has spent the last 8 years in the skin industry. Eight years is long enough to watch trends arrive loudly and leave quietly. What never changes is what people really want from their skincare: skin that feels comfortable, looks bright and stays healthy.\r\niSKINN is built on that simple truth. Every product in the range has a purpose, every ingredient earns its place, and the whole routine stays easy to follow, whether you are a skincare beginner or someone who has tried it all.\r\nDeb Banik, Founder of iSKINN and Co-founder and\r\nCEO of IMAGE Clinic\r\nThe iSKINN Range: Five Products, One Easy Routine\r\nThink of the range as a conversation your skin can finally follow. Cleanse, brighten, treat, moisturize, protect.\r\n \r\nHere is what each step does.\r\nGENTLE DAILY FOAM FACE WASH | 100 ML\r\nPure Cleanse\r\nA good face wash cleans your skin without starting a fight with it. Pure Cleanse is a gentle daily foam that lifts away dirt, oil and everyday pollution, yet leaves skin feeling soft instead of tight.\r\nWillow bark extract helps refine pores, green tea brings antioxidant care, and the Centella trio of asiaticoside, asiatic acid and madecassic acid helps calm redness and support the skin barrier.\r\nBest for: sensitive, oily, combination and acne prone skin. Use morning and evening on damp skin.\r\n \r\nALPHA ARBUTIN BRIGHTENING SERUM | 40 ML\r\nBrightening Elixir\r\nDull patches and stubborn dark spots can make even a good skin day feel flat. Brightening Elixir goes straight to the source. Alpha Arbutin works on pigmentation and uneven tone, while hyaluronic acid keeps skin hydrated and plump.\r\nAntioxidant rich algae and mushroom extracts calm and refresh, and the texture is light and non sticky, so it sits happily under moisturizer and sunscreen.\r\n \r\nBest for: dull or uneven skin tone, pigmentation and dark spots, sensitive and oily or combination skin. Two to three drops, morning and evening.\r\nPEPTIDE SERUM FOR FINE LINES AND FIRMNESS | 40 ML\r\nYouth Balance Serum\r\nThis is the night time treat in the routine. Youth Balance Serum brings a team of peptides together, including milk, wheat and soy peptides and the signal peptide Pal-GHK, along with Antarcticine, a glacial glycoprotein that helps skin hold on to hydration.\r\nStabilized Vitamin C adds brightness and Centella actives soothe, so skin looks smoother, firmer and more rested over time.\r\nBest for: aging skin with fine lines, dull tone, sensitive skin needing repair, and normal to dry skin. Two to three drops at night.\r\n \r\nANTI-AGING MOISTURIZER | 50 ML\r\nYouth Preserve Moisturizer\r\nMoisturizer is where everything gets sealed in, and Youth Preserve does it with a little luxury. Copper Tripeptide-1 helps soften the look of fine lines, hyaluronic acid draws in moisture, and superoxide dismutase, a well known antioxidant enzyme, helps defend against daily environmental stress.\r\nStabilized Vitamin C, Vitamin B5 and wild chamomile oil round it out for a bright, comfortable finish.\r\n \r\nBest for: normal to dry skin, aging skin with fine lines, dull tone and sensitive skin needing repair. Best at night.\r\nSPF 50 PA++ SUNSCREEN SPRAY | 100 ML\r\nSun Mist Hydraglow SPF 50 PA++\r\nSunscreen is the step that protects every other step. Sun Mist Hydraglow is a light, non sticky spray with broad spectrum UV protection, plus hyaluronic acid for hydration, niacinamide to help even out skin tone and rose extract for a fresh, soothed feel.\r\nIt layers easily over the rest of your routine and tops up on the go.\r\nBest for: all skin types, including oily, combination and sensitive skin. Shake well, spray evenly, use 15 minutes before sun exposure and reapply every 2 to 3 hours outdoors.\r\nThe Five Products at a Glance\r\nNot sure where to start?

The Complete Guide\r\nSkin recovery, reimagined. Vegan, gentle, glowing.\r\nPDRN in plain words. PDRN stands for polydeoxyribonucleotide. It is made of small DNA fragments, and it has become one of the most talked about ingredients in Korean beauty for supporting skin repair and hydration, and for a smoother, plumper, healthier looking complexion.\r\nWhy is it called salmon DNA? Traditionally, PDRN has been sourced from salmon, which is why you will often hear it called salmon DNA. That origin is exactly why many people, including vegans and anyone who prefers animal free beauty, have stayed away from it.\r\nWhat is Vegan PDRN? Vegan PDRN gives you PDRN style skin recovery in a fully vegan, cruelty free format. There are no animal derived sources, just modern, sustainable science made for conscious skincare lovers.\r\nWhat can PDRN style skincare do for your skin? Used as part of a consistent routine, it is meant to help support skin repair, keep skin hydrated and give a smoother, plumper, healthier looking finish. \r\nIt works best alongside barrier friendly ingredients, which is why the iSKINN collection pairs it with Centella, peptides, Pink Vitamin and a vegan collagen boosting complex. Results vary from person to person.\r\nVegan PDRN versus Traditional PDRN\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nTraditional PDRN\r\n\r\n\r\nVegan PDRN (iSKINN collection)\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nSource\r\n\r\n\r\nTraditionally salmon derived\r\n\r\n\r\nNo animal derived sources\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nCruelty free\r\n\r\n\r\nNot by default\r\n\r\n\r\nYes, a cruelty free format\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nSuitable for vegans\r\n\r\n\r\nNo\r\n\r\n\r\nYes\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nSkin focus\r\n\r\n\r\nRepair, hydration, smoother and plumper look\r\n\r\n\r\nPDRN style recovery, hydration and glow, with barrier support\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nBest for\r\n\r\n\r\nThose who are comfortable with animal derived skincare\r\n\r\n\r\nConscious skincare lovers who want recovery without animal sources\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nInside the iSKINN Vegan PDRN Collection\r\nEach of the five products pairs Vegan PDRN with a skin loving team of actives.\r\nPink Vitamin\r\nBrightens dull tones and boosts radiance for an even, glowing look.\r\nPeptides\r\nHelp skin look firmer, smoother and more resilient.\r\nCentella Asiatica\r\nCalms and comforts sensitive, stressed skin while supporting the barrier.\r\nVegan Collagen Boosting Complex\r\nSupports bounce and elasticity, with plant based actives in place of animal collagen.\r\nFive products, one routine. From cleansing to treatment to protection, the five piece range is designed to work together, delivering visible hydration, glow and barrier support in a simple, effective routine.

The upcoming Vegan PDRN Collection is fully vegan.\r\nWhat is vegan PDRN?\r\nVegan PDRN is a PDRN style ingredient made without animal derived sources. PDRN is known in Korean beauty for supporting skin repair and hydration, and traditionally it comes from salmon.

Every skin is different and results vary with consistent use, so patch test first and give your routine time.\r\nIs iSKINN suitable for Indian skin and humid weather?\r\nThat is the idea behind the range. It uses lightweight textures, calming actives such as Centella and chamomile, brightening care and an SPF 50 PA++ spray that is easy to reapply in heat and humidity. As always, patch test before first use.\r\nWhich iSKINN product is best for dark spots and dull skin?\r\nBrightening Elixir, powered by Alpha Arbutin and hyaluronic acid, is made for pigmentation and uneven tone. Pair it with Sun Mist Hydraglow SPF 50 PA++ every morning to protect your results.\r\nIn what order should I use the products?\r\nCleanse first with Pure Cleanse, then apply Brightening Elixir. At night, follow with Youth Balance Serum and seal everything in with Youth Preserve Moisturizer. Every morning, finish with Sun Mist Hydraglow SPF 50 PA++.\r\nCan I use iSKINN during pregnancy or breastfeeding?\r\nPure Cleanse, Youth Balance Serum and Youth Preserve Moisturizer contain retinyl palmitate and are not suitable for pregnant and breastfeeding women. For any skincare product during pregnancy or breastfeeding, please consult your dermatologist first.\r\nHow long does it take to see results?\r\nSkincare works gradually. Hydration and glow are often the first things people notice, while changes in tone, fine lines and firmness need steady use over several weeks. Results vary from person to person.\r\nDo I really need sunscreen every day?\r\nYes. UV exposure is a daily thing, even on cloudy days and near windows.

The move reinforces the company’s commitment to combining professional home cleaning with safety, sustainability and measurable results for urban families who are increasingly conscious about what goes into their living spaces.\r\nBangalore’s mix of dust, monsoon humidity and busy schedules means most homes need far more than a quick weekend wipe-down. Recognising this, NoBroker Cleaning has built its offering around a simple but important idea: a home should be spotless without being soaked in harsh chemicals. That philosophy sits at the core of its approach, which replaces traditional chemical bleach with active foam and high-pressure steam to lift dirt, grease and grime without leaving behind strong odour or residue.\r\nEco-Smart Cleaning, Engineered for Real Homes\r\nWhat makes NoBroker Cleaning stand out in a crowded market is its emphasis on being odourless, non-corrosive and family-safe. For homes with young children, elderly residents or pets, all of whom are more sensitive to strong cleaning fumes, this distinction matters. Instead of masking odours with fragrance, the process is designed to leave surfaces genuinely clean, not just chemically scented. Because it is non-corrosive, repeated visits do not wear down fittings, tiles or countertops.\r\nThe kitchen is where the method is tested hardest. NoBroker’s power steam kitchen degreasing cuts through built-up grease on stovetops, tiles and chimneys, a common pain point in compact urban kitchens that see heavy daily use. Bathrooms receive the same treatment through eco-friendly active foam combined with steamers and extractors, aimed at limescale, soap deposits and bacteria. Sofa and upholstery cleaning, meanwhile, relies on a water-saving foam technique that uses far less water than conventional wet shampooing and dries faster, an important consideration in humid months when damp fabric can develop a musty smell.\r\nNoBroker states that the products used are non-toxic, government-approved and suitable for homes with babies, seniors and pets. This positions its household cleaning services as a genuine alternative to both local contractors and generic gig-based services that rely on standard detergents.\r\nTrained Partners, Transparent Terms\r\nResults depend on the people doing the work. Every cleaning partner is trained on standardised protocols, and customers are served by 5-star-rated professionals working with professional-grade equipment. NoBroker’s professional cleaners follow a defined process in each home so that outcomes stay consistent from one booking to the next. This approach has helped build trust among first-time users who are naturally cautious about letting strangers into their homes.\r\nThe company backs the service with a Best Price Guarantee and free cancellation, removing much of the friction that comes with booking residential cleaning services in a busy city. Customers can choose from full-home deep cleaning, kitchen, bathroom and bedroom cleaning, sofa and upholstery care, carpet cleaning, sanitisation, window cleaning and chimney cleaning, with custom packages available. That flexibility has made the service a popular choice not only for routine upkeep but also for one-time deep cleans before moving in, hosting guests or preparing a property for tenants.\r\nCustomer Sentiment Reflects the Shift\r\nCustomer feedback highlights thorough results and a reliable experience. One Bangalore customer who booked NoBroker after a friend’s recommendation noted that the team used quality tools and non-toxic soaps on the flooring, and now recommends the service to family and friends. An independent comparison of Bangalore cleaning providers also observed that the odourless, non-corrosive approach lets families book a full-home clean with toddlers or pets around, without evacuating the house or airing it out for a day.\r\n“Home cleaningshouldn’t come at the cost of indoor air quality,” said a NoBroker spokesperson. “Our eco-smart approach was built because we saw a real gap: most cleaning services in India still rely on strong chemical agents that leave behind odour and residue.”\r\nWhy It Matters for Bangalore Homeowners\r\nIndian consumers are paying closer attention to indoor air quality and the products used inside their homes. A cleaning service is now judged as much on what it leaves behind as on what it removes. Eco-friendly options have historically been limited to a handful of niche providers with inconsistent quality. NoBroker’s scale, having cleaned well over a million homes and more than a billion square feet of living space nationally, allows it to bring an eco-conscious standard to the mainstream market rather than keeping it a premium niche offering.\r\nThe company’s continued investment in standardised partner training and ongoing refinement of its foam and steam technology signals a long-term commitment rather than a one-off marketing push. As more households prioritise both hygiene and sustainability, NoBroker Cleaning is positioning itself at the intersection of the two, offering professional cleaning that is as considerate of a family’s health as it is of the environment.\r\nNoBroker Cleaning can be booked through the NoBroker website and app across major Indian cities, including Bangalore, Mumbai, Pune, Chennai, Hyderabad and Delhi-NCR. For homeowners searching for dependable, chemical-conscious home cleaning, NoBroker’s eco-smart line offers a credible and well-reviewed option that reflects a broader shift in how Indian consumers think about what “clean” really means.\r\nAbout NoBroker\r\nNoBroker is India’s leading proptech platform, offering brokerage-free real estate services alongside home services including painting, cleaning, packers and movers, and more, serving customers across major Indian cities including Bangalore, Mumbai, Pune, Chennai, Hyderabad and Delhi-NCR.\r\nIf you object to the content of this press release, please notify us at pr.error.rectification@gmail.com.

Its approach combines cultural intelligence, audience insights and content expertise to develop solutions around specific brand objectives.\r\nThe democratisation of content has broken down geographical and linguistic barriers, allowing a creator from a small town to build a national audience without moving to a metro or conforming to mainstream narratives. As the next wave of creator growth emerges from Bharat, Routed Media sees regional relevance as more than translating a campaign. It requires an understanding of local  humour, cultural nuances and community behaviour, supported by insight into who consumes a creator’s content and why.\r\nFor brands, the conversation is shifting from how many views a creator can deliver to whether a partnership builds trust, influences consideration and contributes to business outcomes. Routed Media brings together influencer marketing, music, meme marketing, production and intellectual property development, selecting formats and distribution according to the challenge each brief presents.\r\nFor the FIFA World cup launch campaign, a rapid turnaround and changes to streaming and pricing required an approach that could build awareness while reassuring viewers about the improved viewing experience. Routed Media deployed football creators, Gen Z influencers, regional voices, mega creators and celebrities, alongside match-led content seeding across meme pages and football communities. Running from June to July, the campaign engaged 164 creators and amplified content across 3,814 pages, generating over 3 mn subscribers for Z5 during the most testing matchday timings.\r\nFor Zomato, the objective was to tell delivery partners’ stories from their own perspective. Routed Media brought together composer Amit Trivedi and lyricist Mago, supervising the creative process and producing a brand song in Hindi and Tamil. Digital distribution supported the song’s reach and discoverability, keeping the lived experiences of delivery partners at the centre of the narrative.\r\nIts Durga Puja film Aagomoni for TATA.CARS drew on Bengali music, family rituals and a mother-daughter reunion to build emotional affinity. Featuring the red Sierra as the central vehicle alongside the wider portfolio, the film integrated cars into journeys home for the festival. It was distributed to internal teams and trade partners, published on the brand’s regional social handles and screened at Red FM’s “Dugga Dugga” event.\r\nTechnology supports this approach by informing creator discovery, audience evaluation, content design and campaign optimisation. The focus extends beyond follower counts to audience demographics, geography, language, engagement quality, content affinity and brand relevance. Routed Media’s approach to cultural intelligence powered by technology is intended to improve decisions and visibility into performance, content, campaign economics, deliverables and outcomes while keeping human creativity and cultural understanding central.\r\nIts client portfolio includes ZEE5, JioStar, Godrej, Mother Dairy, Malabar, Lenskart, Bajaj, Zomato, INOX Air Products and Titan, among others.\r\nAnandini Goenka, Co-founder, Routed Media, said:\r\n“For the longest time, access to national audiences was concentrated among a relatively small set of creators, languages and markets. That is changing. The democratisation of content means that a creator from a smaller town, speaking their own language, can build an audience across the country without losing their cultural identity. We believe the next wave of creator growth will come from Bharat. For brands, the opportunity lies in understanding these audiences at a much deeper level. At Routed, our focus is on combining cultural intelligence with technology and audience insights to break language barriers and make creator-led marketing more relevant, inclusive and effective.”\r\nKirthi Shridhar Rai, Co-founder, Routed Media, said:“Too often, the industry starts with the creator and then looks for a role for the brand. We believe it should be the other way around. Start with the business problem, understand the cultural context, and then build the idea—whether that means creators, memes, music, entertainment or an original content property. Having helped build Zee Music Company from the ground up and worked across acquisition and marketing for 1000+ film and music campaigns, I’ve seen how the right content can move beyond visibility to shape conversations, influence choices and create lasting relevance. At Routed, we’re bringing that entertainment-first mindset to brand building. We don’t believe in forcing every brief into the influencer marketing playbook; we believe in finding the right cultural solution for the problem a brand needs to solve.”\r\nAlongside its brand-facing work, Routed Media is focused on talent management and creator development across languages, genres and markets. Through content strategy, brand partnerships, original IPs and cross-platform growth, it aims to help creators diversify revenue beyond one-off paid collaborations, including opportunities in social commerce and knowledge commerce. Its long-term vision is to build sustainable creator businesses, connecting brands with culturally relevant voices while giving creators more ways to grow.\r\n","articleSection":"Business","datePublished":"2026-11-04T14:58:40+0530","dateModified":"2026-11-04T15:03:31+0530","inLanguage":"en-us","author":{"@type":"Person","name":"PNN","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com/user/pnnindia"},"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Marudhara Bharti English","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com/uploads/logo/logo_6ab9270c36c334-01124948.png"}},"image":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://pnndigital.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/11/PNN-2026-11-04T131215.981.jpg","contentUrl":"https://pnndigital.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/11/PNN-2026-11-04T131215.981.jpg"},"keywords":["Routed Media","India’s Creator Economy"]}</script>

What It Needs Is Access: Unstop&#039;s Role in Opening Doors Like SEVA FIRST","name":"India Has the Talent. What It Needs Is Access: Unstop&#039;s Role in Opening Doors Like SEVA FIRST","articleBody":"New Delhi [India] : Ask a placement officer about the students they remember, and the answer is rarely about marks. It is about the student who built something, entered something, or solved something before anyone asked them to. The harder question is how many such students never get the chance, because the opportunity never reaches them.\r\nThat gap between ambition and access sits at the centre of Unstop’s work. A recent government-backed innovation challenge offers a clear view of how it plays out.\r\nA Challenge Built Around Real Problems\r\nSEVA FIRST – Rashtriya Youth Innovation Challenge 2026 is part of the wider Seva First Innovation Challenge, a national initiative that asks young people to identify real problems in their communities and develop solutions that are affordable, scalable and implementable. Delhi’s higher education minister launched the programme at Delhi Technological University on 19 September, with DTU anchoring the northern region. Mentorship and government support are built into the structure.\r\nWhat makes it instructive is the format. The brief is not an exam question. Students are asked to look at the world around them, name a problem and propose something that could work.\r\nThe opportunity was first listed on Unstop, which is now directing its student community to the official government portal. While this may seem like a small step, it highlights Unstop’s role in making such initiatives more accessible. The platform is not the owner of the opportunity; its role is to bring it to the attention of students who might otherwise never come across it.\r\nWhy Visibility Matters\r\nIndia’s hiring ecosystem is still working out what counts as evidence of ability. HirePro’s State of College Hiring in India 2026 found that 96 per cent of colleges believe employers have embraced skills-first hiring, while only 21 per cent of corporates say they have fully made that shift. The same report found that 68 per cent of students consider themselves job-ready from day one, against 9 per cent of employers who agree.\r\nStudents, colleges and employers, in other words, are reading the same market differently. Where shared evidence of capability is thin, familiar signals fill the gap: the degree, the college name, the network. Those signals favour students who already have access to the right campus and the right introductions.\r\nA challenge entry offers a different kind of evidence. A student who identifies a problem, develops a solution and defends it before evaluators demonstrates initiative, critical thinking and the ability to apply knowledge beyond the classroom. While it may not replace conventional hiring assessments, it adds another dimension to understanding a student’s potential.\r\nWhere Unstop Fits\r\nFounded by Ankit Aggarwal in 2019, Unstop describes itself as India’s largest early-talent community engagement and hiring platform. The company says it connects more than 32 million students and early professionals, from over 20,000 colleges, with 35,000-plus employers. It has powered programmes such as the Adobe Hackathon and reports more than 200,000 engagements and 25 million assessments completed.\r\nAggarwal, who worked at Sapient, Deloitte and Teach For India before turning entrepreneur, argues that the student journey is changing. The old sequence of education, graduation and job is giving way to one in which students build experiences and proof of skills first, and opportunities follow. His conclusion is a simple one: young talent should not have to wait until graduation to show what it can do.\r\nFor that to be more than a slogan, three things have to hold. An opportunity has to be discoverable, so a student in a smaller town hears about it at all. It has to be accessible, so a student from a Tier 2 college can enter on the same terms as one from a leading campus. And it has to be actionable, with a clear path from entry to outcome. The question is no longer whether India has enough talent. It is whether we are creating enough platforms for that talent to be seen, tested and recognised.\r\nUnstop isn’t just creating talent. It is helping talent find opportunities, get discovered and prove what it can do.\r\nA Signal, Not a Guarantee\r\nNone of this replaces rigorous evaluation. A challenge entry is evidence, not a promise, and employers will keep weighing it alongside other factors. The HirePro numbers are a reminder that skills-first hiring remains unfinished work.\r\nBut the direction is clear enough. As more of India’s opportunities, from corporate programmes to government initiatives, move into open formats, the question is who gets to see them.\r\nIndia does not need to manufacture ambition. It already has plenty. The task is to widen the routes by which that ambition meets a real problem, a real audience and a fair chance to be judged on the work. A country’s talent is only as visible as the platforms that carry it.","articleSection":"Press Release","datePublished":"2026-11-04T14:57:05+0530","dateModified":"2026-11-04T15:41:09+0530","inLanguage":"en-us","author":{"@type":"Person","name":"Correspondent Desk","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com/user/marudharabharti"},"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Marudhara Bharti English","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com/uploads/logo/logo_6ab9270c36c334-01124948.png"}},"image":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhBkGMG3_bHcywtaO1c9mvmnSyW8FSOXS6ork5TlApfe6UZ9fjS0CH1MOEkXGrpexdvB5Mrfxgr3N3gowFaHkpvsnCxlBYQCdp7yDKLFUTkxOInTP48Jz9MEjD_RAoYWDN5coqRFmewL7-5w6m4Jdg84v5Ry79dmCUOWas_NAUkVKhwNRqBKWaZhrBeFu-G/w1600/image.jpeg","contentUrl":"https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhBkGMG3_bHcywtaO1c9mvmnSyW8FSOXS6ork5TlApfe6UZ9fjS0CH1MOEkXGrpexdvB5Mrfxgr3N3gowFaHkpvsnCxlBYQCdp7yDKLFUTkxOInTP48Jz9MEjD_RAoYWDN5coqRFmewL7-5w6m4Jdg84v5Ry79dmCUOWas_NAUkVKhwNRqBKWaZhrBeFu-G/w1600/image.jpeg"},"keywords":["India","Has","the","Talent.","What","Needs","Access:","Unstops","Role","Opening","Doors","Like","SEVA","FIRST"]}</script>

This milestone underscores Khazanchi’s financial strength and robust business viability, aligned with its long-term objectives.\r\nIn an industry historically divided between volume-focused traditional wholesalers and nimble retail chains, Khazanchi Jewellers is constructing a distinct hybrid growth engine designed to deliver both operational scale and expanding profit margins.\r\nA Vision Built on Structural Transformation\r\nAt the heart of Khazanchi’s strategic blueprint lies a deliberate plan to reshape how its revenues are generated. Historically, wholesale B2B operations have formed the backbone of the company’s business, generating around 90% of total revenue. While this foundation provides strong volume movement, predictable cash flow, and deep distribution reach, wholesale models naturally operate on Stable operating margins.\r\nTo unlock deeper corporate value and build stronger brand equity, management has started driving a structural transition toward a balanced revenue portfolio. With more than 5 decades of Legacy, built up trust, a huge owned designed creations and long-lasting relationship with best crafters and manufacturers. To begin with Khazanchi inaugurated its 10000 Sq feet showroom as premium experience centre. Over the next 3-4 years, the company aims to scale its B2C retail segment so that it contributes 35% to 40% of overall revenues, bringing the long-term B2B and B2C split to a well-balanced 60-40 ratio. This shift toward high-margin retail channels is targeted to elevate operating margins to an impressive 8% to 9% level.\r\nSynchronized Execution Across Core Pillars\r\nAchieving a sustained annual revenue growth rate of 25% to 30% requires execution across every level of the organization. Khazanchi’s expansion journey is underpinned by several proactive measures and strategic initiatives currently underway.\r\nFirst, the company is strengthening its dominant B2B core rather than shifting away from it. By adding new domestic and regional clients across diverse geographies, expanding wallet share with established partners, and enhancing supply chain efficiencies through real-time ERP integration, Khazanchi secures a reliable, volume-driven revenue baseline that supports its broader expansion.\r\nSecond, the company is accelerating its B2C retail brand transformation. A major highlight of this strategy includes rolling out 8 to 10 new stores, comprising a balanced mix of grand flagship experience centres and sleek, modern boutiques dedicated to minimal jewellery concepts. Moving outward from its stronghold in the home state into neighbouring regions and ultimately establishing a pan-India footprint, this retail rollout brings the brand directly to retail consumers, capturing higher margins and driving strong brand recall.\r\nThird, Khazanchi is expanding into high-value product categories to enhance overall profitability. The company is aggressively scaling its Natural diamond and studded jewellery offerings under Brand Vajraa, By emphasizing design-led, value-added gold and precious metal products, the brand commands better design premiums while catering to shifting consumer tastes.\r\nFourth, technology serves as a major growth enabler through a modern digital and omnichannel engine. The company is investing in a scalable e-commerce infrastructure tightly integrated with central enterprise resource planning systems. This integration enables real-time inventory management, data-driven decision-making, and a fluid buying experience across both digital screens and physical store floors, improving overall capital efficiency.\r\nIndustry Tailwinds and Mainboard Horizons\r\nKhazanchi’s mainboard migration coincides with a favourable period for India’s organized jewellery market. Increasing consumer trust in hallmarking and HUID, a growing preference for institutional brands over unorganized local jewellers, and steady demand for precious metals provide strong macro support.\r\nFor shareholders, institutional investors, and trade partners, the company’s transition to the Mainboard enhances market visibility, improves equity liquidity, and positions the corporate entity to attract broader institutional capital. By blending a large-scale B2B foundation with high-margin, technology-enabled retail expansion, Khazanchi Jewellers is demonstrating that its target of ₹5,000 crore by 2030 is a well-calculated, natural step forward in its evolution.\r\nDisclaimer:Certain statements in this document that are not historical facts are forward looking statements.

Its whey protein range features the BioActin enzyme system and a digestion-first formulation designed to support enzymatic breakdown, creating a protein experience that feels clean, light, and easy to fit into everyday life.\r\nExtending this absorption-first philosophy to creatine, ClearZorb has introduced the world’s first mouth-dissolving creatine monohydrate format, eliminating the need for mixing and making daily creatine intake more convenient. Founded by Palak and Pranav Midha, ClearZorb aims to shift the conversation beyond how much nutrition people consume to how thoughtfully it is formulated and how effectively the body can use it.\r\n“I like backing founders building with intent, and this one fits how I actually live. I keep an active routine, I’m particular about my nutrition, and creatine is part of that for me. Something built around absorption and easy to take every day just makes sense. Glad to come on board as ClearZorb’s brand ambassador.”\r\nRaj Shamani, Brand Ambassador, ClearZorb\r\n“Choosing Raj was deliberate.

That’s exactly what our creatine is about, supporting a strong body and a clear mind, in a form that’s genuinely easy to take every day.

Its expanding portfolio reflects a belief that India’s future will be shaped by indigenous research, technological capabilities and manufacturing excellence.\r\nTurning ambitious ideas into tangible innovation\r\nAmong the company’s most significant initiatives is its AI-powered, integrated haemodialysis ecosystem, developed through Renalyx Healthcare Systems. Combining an indigenous dialysis machine with artificial intelligence, connected technology and intelligent patient monitoring, the initiative aims to make renal care smarter, more accessible and efficient.\r\nIts MHRA registration for the dialysis system marks an important step towards international markets. The company has also secured MHRA registration for its in-vitro diagnostics (IVD) portfolio, strengthening its access to the United Kingdom and allied markets.\r\nIts Biomescan Analytics Platform, which analyses the gut microbiome through whole-metagenome sequencing, has secured a manufacturing licence for Software as a Medical Device (SaMD), an important regulatory milestone for India’s digital health ecosystem.\r\nIn preventive healthcare, Lord’s Mark is advancing an AI-powered, radiation-free breast cancer screening wearable developed in collaboration with the Centre for Materials for Electronic Technology (C-MET). The technology has progressed towards final clinical trials across India, the USA and Europe, with the ambition of enabling earlier and more accessible screening, subject to clinical validation and regulatory approvals.\r\nTaking Indian innovation to the global stage\r\nUpadhyay’s ambitions extend well beyond healthcare. Through Brahmastra, Lord’s Mark is advancing indigenous defence innovation, demonstrating its interest in developing technology-led capabilities in a strategically important sector.\r\nThe company’s international expansion has gathered momentum, with a strategic partnership with ARKALL Holdings to strengthen healthcare infrastructure across 28 Caribbean countries.\r\nIts manufacturing ambitions are equally significant. Lord’s Mark has expanded its Silvassa surgical manufacturing operations, while securing US FDA registration for more than 200 surgical and hygiene products, positioning its products for international markets.\r\nIts expanding IVD manufacturing infrastructure further reinforces its commitment to building India’s domestic healthcare manufacturing capabilities.\r\nBeyond MedTech, the company’s work across solar lighting, smart infrastructure and green hydrogen reflects a broader entrepreneurial vision spanning technology, sustainability and national development.\r\nA vision bigger than business\r\nWhat distinguishes Upadhyay is not simply the diversity of sectors he is entering, but the enthusiasm with which he embraces new possibilities. His passion for technology is rooted in a belief that innovation must ultimately improve lives, create opportunities and strengthen India’s global standing.\r\nHis larger aspiration is to see India emerge as a globally recognised manufacturing and technology powerhouse, capable of designing, developing and exporting solutions for the world’s most demanding markets.\r\nFor him, the journey is far from complete. The three consecutive TIME appearances are milestones along the way, while the real ambition remains building a legacy of Indian innovation that resonates across the world.","articleSection":"Business","datePublished":"2026-11-03T16:43:50+0530","dateModified":"2026-11-03T16:47:21+0530","inLanguage":"en-us","author":{"@type":"Person","name":"PNN","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com/user/pnnindia"},"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Marudhara Bharti English","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com/uploads/logo/logo_6ab9270c36c334-01124948.png"}},"image":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://pnndigital.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/11/PNN-2026-11-03T110430.078.jpg","contentUrl":"https://pnndigital.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/11/PNN-2026-11-03T110430.078.jpg"},"keywords":["Dr. Sachidanand Upadhyay","TIME Magazine"]}</script>

A term life insurance policy can help create a financial safety net for loved ones if the life assured dies during the policy term. The right cover, however, depends on personal responsibilities, income, liabilities and future goals. This guide explains term insurance in simple terms, looks at important features and compares selected term insurance plans to help you understand which type of protection may suit different needs.\r\nWhat Is a Term Insurance Plan?\r\nTerm insurance is a pure form of life insurance plan. It provides financial protection to the nominee or nominees if the life assured dies during the selected policy term. The arrangement is simple. The policyholder pays a premium to the insurance company for a chosen period. In return, the insurer provides life cover for that term. If the insured person dies during the policy period, the nominee receives the sum assured, subject to the terms of the policy.\r\nThe payout can help the family manage financial responsibilities after the loss of an earning member. Depending on their needs, the money may be used for everyday expenses, children’s education, existing loans or other important financial commitments. A term insurance policy is mainly meant for protection. It should not be viewed as a savings option. If the insured person survives the policy term, there is generally no payout unless the selected policy includes a Return of Premium feature or a zero-cost exit option.\r\nThis makes understanding the policy before buying it important. The cover amount, policy term, premium payment option and additional riders can all affect the protection provided.\r\nBest Term Insurance Plan for Your Need\r\nDifferent plans have different features. The right choice depends on what kind of protection and flexibility a policyholder is looking for.\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nPlan\r\nKey Features\r\nMay Suit\r\n\r\n\r\nAgeas Federal Term Insurance\r\nTerm insurance options including Super Protect Plus, Super Protect and iSecure, along with ways to calculate ideal cover and premium\r\nIndividuals looking for term insurance protection aligned with their future financial needs\r\n\r\n\r\nAxis Max Smart Term Plan Plus\r\nZero Cost Exit option, critical illness benefit covering 64 illnesses, and rider/add-on options\r\nIndividuals starting their financial journey, those with irregular income and new families considering joint life cover\r\n\r\n\r\nTata AIA Sampoorna Raksha Promise\r\nTop-up option, critical illness cover for 40 listed diseases and waiver of premium option\r\nIndividuals looking for a starting point with decent coverage and the option to customise through riders\r\n\r\n\r\nICICI Prudential iProtect Smart\r\nCritical illness coverage, Zero Cost Option, terminal illness payout and benefits for women\r\nSalaried individuals and women looking for customisation\r\n\r\n\r\nHDFC Life Click 2 Protect Super\r\nInflation-linked increase in cover, top-up options, critical illness cover for 60 diseases and spousal coverage\r\nPeople with debts, multiple dependants and those seeking wider coverage options\r\n\r\n\r\nBajaj Allianz Smart Protect Goal\r\nCritical illness cover for 55 diseases, inflation-linked increase in coverage and comprehensive life cover\r\nIndividuals looking for a relatively affordable option with additional protection features\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nHow Different People Can Benefit From Term Insurance\r\nTerm insurance is not limited to one particular category of people. The common factor is financial dependence. It can be relevant for:\r\n\r\nPrimary earners and breadwinners\r\nYoung couples and partners\r\nIndividuals with long-term financial goals\r\nBusiness owners and stakeholders\r\nAnyone with financial dependants\r\n\r\nFor a primary earner, the loss of income can affect the family’s ability to manage everyday expenses and future goals. A term insurance policy can help replace part of that financial support through the death benefit. For someone with outstanding loans, the payout can also help the family deal with existing liabilities.\r\nYoung families may consider protection for future responsibilities such as children’s education or marriage. Individuals with business interests may also consider how their absence could affect people who depend on their income.\r\nThe central idea remains simple: if someone financially depends on your income, life cover can play an important role in protecting that person’s financial future.\r\nWhat to Check Before Buying a Term Life Insurance Policy\r\nChoosing a policy requires more than looking at the premium. The insurer also matters. A few areas deserve attention before making a decision:\r\n\r\nClaim settlement track record\r\nFinancial position of the insurer\r\nMarket standing\r\nCustomer feedback and service\r\nPolicy transparency\r\nDigital buying experience\r\nCustomer support\r\nAvailability of insurance guidance\r\nPolicy issuance process\r\nClaim support\r\n\r\nConclusion\r\nA term life insurance policy is built around a straightforward purpose: providing financial protection when the insured person is no longer there to support the family. The value of the cover comes from the financial support it can provide to nominees during a difficult period.\r\nThe best choice is not necessarily the plan with the biggest number of features or the lowest premium. It is the one whose cover, policy term, premium and benefits fit the family’s actual needs.\r\nAgeas Federal’s term insurance options, including Super Protect Plus, Super Protect and iSecure, can be considered while assessing these protection needs. Taking time to understand the cover amount, policy duration and available options can make the decision clearer.\r\nStart with your family’s financial responsibilities, then choose the right life insurance plans that suit your needs.\r\nIf you object to the content of this press release, please notify us at pr.error.rectification@gmail.com.

The platform brings mutual fund investing, financial education, financial calculators, and goal-based planning tools together in a single digital experience, with an emphasis on helping investors understand the financial goals behind their decisions.\r\nOperated by Tech Margon Wealth Private Limited, an AMFI-registered Mutual Fund Distributor with ARN 360119, Niyyam is designed for individuals who want to explore financial concepts, examine calculations relevant to their goals, and access mutual fund investing through one platform.\r\nThe platform offers more than 200 educational articles and resources, over 50 financial calculators and planning tools, and Retirement Goal Intelligence (RGI), a rule-based framework for examining retirement-related estimates. These capabilities support the company’s broader approach: connecting financial knowledge and practical planning tools with the investor’s journey.\r\nA Digital Platform With an Understanding-First Approach\r\nFor many people, investing involves questions that extend beyond selecting a financial product. They may need to understand their objectives, determine how much they can invest, examine the time available to pursue a goal, and learn about the assumptions behind financial calculations.\r\nNiyyam has been built to bring these considerations closer to the investment experience. Its educational resources and calculators are available alongside its mutual fund distribution offering, giving users tools to explore financial questions before and during their investment journey.\r\n\r\n“Most investing journeys still begin with a product screen. We believe they should begin with a question: what is the investor trying to achieve, and what does that goal require?” said Ashok Prasad, Founder of Niyyam.\r\nThe platform’s approach is captured in the principle “Learn → Understand → Calculate → Invest.” It reflects the company’s view that financial knowledge, understanding, and practical calculations can help users examine their choices with greater context. It does not imply that any sequence can remove investment risk or guarantee a particular outcome.\r\nWhat Investors Can Access on Niyyam\r\nNiyyam brings together three main elements of the digital investing experience:\r\n\r\nMutual fund investing: Access to the platform’s mutual fund distribution offering.\r\nFinancial education: More than 200 educational articles and resources covering mutual funds, systematic investment plans (SIPs), taxation, financial planning, retirement, investment risks, and investor awareness.\r\nFinancial calculators and planning tools: More than 50 tools covering areas such as savings, budgeting, investments, inflation, retirement requirements and goal-based financial scenarios.\r\n\r\nThe platform also publishes educational explainers and updates on relevant market and regulatory developments, encouraging users to consult official sources for authoritative information.\r\nThe calculators allow users to examine estimates using defined inputs and assumptions. Results are illustrative and may differ from actual outcomes, particularly when they involve market-linked investments.\r\n“An execution button without financial understanding is not enough. We built Niyyam to bring the goal, the numbers, the knowledge and the investment journey closer together,” Prasad said.\r\nRetirement Goal Intelligence as a Supporting Capability\r\nThe platform includes Retirement Goal Intelligence (RGI), a rule-based and explainable informational framework designed to help users examine their retirement position under stated assumptions.\r\nUsing information supplied by users, RGI can present indicators such as estimated retirement requirements, projected corpus, potential funding gaps, and retirement progress. Users can vary relevant inputs to explore how their estimates change.\r\nRGI does not predict market returns, guarantee retirement outcomes, or recommend individual mutual fund schemes. Its outputs depend on the information and assumptions used and should be interpreted as estimates rather than certain predictions.\r\nThe framework forms one part of Niyyam’s broader offering, rather than defining the entire platform.\r\nBuilding a Connected Digital Investing Experience\r\nNiyyam’s product philosophy is “Complexity Inside. Simplicity Outside.” The idea is to use technology to process financial calculations and relationships while presenting information in a form that users can navigate and understand.\r\n“There is no shortage of financial information today. The challenge is making that information meaningful in the context of an individual’s financial life. Niyyam is our attempt to bring education, numbers, goals and investing into one connected experience,” Prasad said.\r\nThe platform is available through its website and Android Application\r\nIndia’s Mutual Fund Industry: Context for the Launch\r\nNiyyam enters a market in which mutual funds have become a significant channel for household investment participation. According to the Association of Mutual Funds in India (AMFI), the industry’s assets under management stood at approximately ₹85.76 lakh crore as of July 31, 2026. The industry recorded approximately 28.09 crore mutual fund folios, while SIP contributions reached ₹31,961 crore during July 2026.\r\nThese figures provide context for the scale of the mutual fund industry. Niyyam’s stated focus is to complement digital access to mutual fund investing with educational content and practical planning tools that help users explore financial decisions in the context of their goals.\r\nAbout Niyyam\r\nNiyyam is a digital mutual fund distribution platform operated by Tech Margon Wealth Private Limited, an AMFI-registered Mutual Fund Distributor with ARN 360119.

Founded by four young entrepreneurs, Vipul Ramani, Nirav Rakholiya, Bhaudip Suhagiya, and Rohan Ramani, the company began its journey in Surat with a vision to make technology-driven cleaning solutions accessible to Indian households.\r\nIn just around 1 to 1.5 years, Robolta has served 5,000+ customers, established 3 stores and 15+ retail partner locations, and built a pipeline of 30+ potential retail partnerships. With three more stores planned, the company continues to expand its reach while serving customers across India.\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nFrom Surat to Saurashtra and Ahmedabad\r\nRobolta started its flagship store in Surat as a pilot project to serve South Gujarat through product demonstrations, customer guidance, and after-sales support. Following a positive response, the company recently opened its Rajkot store to serve the wider Saurashtra region. Ahmedabad, the heart and a major commercial centre of Gujarat, marks the next step in this expansion.\r\nThe company plans to open additional stores in Vadodara, Vapi, and Gandhidham soon, strengthening its retail and service network across Gujarat.\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nFrom Cleaning Robots to a Complete Cleaning Ecosystem\r\nRobolta began with just three to four cleaning robots and has since expanded into a wide range of products, including robotic floor cleaners, wet-and-dry cleaners, fabric and mite-care solutions, glass-cleaning robots, cordless cleaning appliances, and air purifiers.\r\nWith products across multiple categories and price ranges, Robolta aims to become a one-stop destination for technology-driven cleaning solutions, covering everything from floors and fabrics to glass surfaces and indoor air care.\r\nThe company believes that as the world advances towards artificial intelligence, automation, and smarter technology, everyday cleaning should evolve too. While international brands operate in India’s smart-cleaning market, Robolta represents the growing presence of Indian homegrown businesses in this category.\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nService Beyond Sales\r\nFor Robolta, expansion is not just about selling products. Its priority is to provide customers with the right solutions, live product demonstrations, expert guidance, and dependable after-sales service. The new Ahmedabad store will offer live demonstrations and on-site service support.\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nLeadership Perspectives\r\nBhaudip Suhagiya, Co-founder of Robolta, said: “We started in Surat with a vision to make everyday cleaning easier through technology. The trust and response of our customers have encouraged us to expand across Gujarat. Ahmedabad is an important milestone, and our focus remains on providing the right products along with reliable after-sales support.”\r\nRohan Ramani, Co-founder of Robolta, added: “Technology is transforming how we live, so cleaning should evolve too. From a few cleaning robots to a wide range of cleaning and air-care solutions, our journey reflects our ambition to build a complete ecosystem for Indian customers. As we grow, customer experience and service beyond the sale will remain our priorities.”\r\nRobolta believes Gujarat has always been at the forefront of entrepreneurship and business innovation. With its growing presence across the state, the company aims to bring smarter cleaning solutions closer to more Indian households and businesses.","articleSection":"Business","datePublished":"2026-11-02T21:44:13+0530","dateModified":"2026-11-03T16:52:35+0530","inLanguage":"en-us","author":{"@type":"Person","name":"PNN","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com/user/pnnindia"},"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Marudhara Bharti English","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com/uploads/logo/logo_6ab9270c36c334-01124948.png"}},"image":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://pnndigital.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/11/PNN-2026-11-02T151654.614.jpg","contentUrl":"https://pnndigital.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/11/PNN-2026-11-02T151654.614.jpg"},"keywords":["Robolta","Expands","Its","Gujarat","Footprint","with","New","Ahmedabad","Store"]}</script>

Manchester United captain Bruno Fernandes has joined Blutik, the global fan-engagement platform, to meet fans selected through the Blutik app. It is a landmark signing for a company that celebrated its first anniversary only weeks ago.\r\nThe partnership brings together one of the Premier League’s most admired leaders and a platform built on a simple promise: “One home for all fans.” On Blutik, supporters do more than watch. They join fan communities, play free live contests during matches, and win the kind of experiences money rarely buys: match-day tickets, travel, signed memorabilia and face-to-face moments with their heroes.\r\nA captain who plays for the fans\r\nFew modern footballers embody that idea like Fernandes. Since arriving at Old Trafford in January 2020, the Portuguese playmaker has become the creative heartbeat of Manchester United, admired for his vision, energy and leadership. Last season he delivered 30 goal contributions in 35 Premier League matches and was crowned Player of the Season.\r\nJust as celebrated is his bond with supporters, from signing autographs for young fans to spending time with families at the Manchester United Foundation’s Dream Day. That spirit sits at the heart of Blutik. Fernandes will feature in Blutik’s “Meet Me” category and meet fans selected through the app, giving supporters around the world the chance to connect with him in person.\r\nA vision that is winning believers\r\nFor Sudheesh Avikkal, Managing Director of Blutik, the signing is a statement of intent.\r\n“Blutik is barely a year old, and today the captain of one of the world’s greatest football clubs stands beside us,” he said. “That tells you how strongly our vision resonates. We are building a platform that stands on the side of fans, with nothing to sell them and everything to give them.”\r\nCo-founder Stefy Patel has been central to turning that vision into partnerships. She represented Blutik at the signing with Fernandes, and in September led the company’s delegation to Rome’s Circolo Aniene, where Eastwest president Giuseppe Scognamiglio hosted the meeting that opened the door to Blutik’s launch in Italy.\r\n“Every partnership we build begins with one question: what will this mean for the fan?” Patel said. “Bruno is a captain who never forgets the people in the stands. Together, we want to turn that bond into real moments: a seat in the stadium, a handshake with a hero, a memory that lasts a lifetime.”\r\nA growing team of champions\r\nFernandes joins a line-up of sporting icons that spans sports and continents. Vincent Candela, winner of the 1998 FIFA World Cup and Euro 2000 with France and a Hall of Fame legend at AS Roma, is the face of Blutik’s launch in Italy. In cricket, Blutik has partnered with Bhuvneshwar Kumar, the “Swing King” who became the first Indian bowler to take five-wicket hauls in all three international formats, and this year the first fast bowler to claim 200 IPL wickets.\r\nFrom Old Trafford to Rome to the IPL, Blutik now brings fans closer to heroes in the world’s two most passionate sporting cultures: football and cricket.\r\nA safe, rewarding home for every fan\r\nBlutik is designed to give back to fans, not take from them. Every user is verified, the app is advertisement-free in its first year, and it keeps out gambling, cryptocurrency, alcohol, tobacco and adult content. Winners receive official match tickets bought directly from clubs, with travel covered by Blutik, while its Meet &amp;amp; Greet programme gives selected fans 65 minutes with a champion.\r\nThe platform is backed by a team of builders and sporting veterans, including Fredi Fiorentini, a key figure in Croatia’s rise as a football powerhouse. Already reaching fans in more than 120 countries and available in seven languages, including Hindi and Arabic, Blutik aims to welcome five million active fans by 2027 and build a 100-million-strong global fan ecosystem by 2030. After Italy, its expansion continues to Argentina and Turkey.\r\nWith the Manchester United captain now leading the charge, Blutik’s message to fans everywhere is clear: the game has never been closer.\r\nAbout Blutik\r\nBlutik is a mobile-first social platform for sports and entertainment fans, operated by Faniverse Fantech Ltd. Fans join communities, play free live contests and win real-life experiences across cricket, football, F1, tennis, music and more. Blutik is free on the App Store and Google Play, and at www.blutik.fan.\r\nIf you object to the content of this press release, please notify us at pr.error.rectification@gmail.com.

HITO!, Before the Bright Day and Deep Quiet Room, following its successful New Delhi edition at Triveni Kala Sangam on October 24–25, where six Taiwanese films were screened.\r\nWelcoming audiences to the festival, Homer Chang, Director-General of the Taipei Economic and Cultural Center (TECC) in Mumbai, described the occasion as a significant step towards expanding India–Taiwan cultural cooperation.\r\nHighlighting the festival&#039;s flagship documentary, HERO! HITO!, Chang drew an interesting parallel between Taiwan&#039;s passion for baseball and India&#039;s love for cricket.\r\n“Just as cricket is deeply loved in India, baseball holds a special place in Taiwanese society. Although we may follow different sports, we share the same passion for competition, teamwork, and national pride,” he said.\r\nThe documentary chronicled Taiwan&#039;s extraordinary 11-year journey from its disappointing 2013 World Baseball Classic campaign to its historic victory over Japan in the 2024 WBSC Premier12 championship.\r\nChang emphasised that Taiwan&#039;s international identity extended beyond semiconductor manufacturing and technological innovation to sporting excellence, cultural achievements and creative industries.\r\nHe also acknowledged the support of ADATA Technology, one of Taiwan&#039;s leading technology companies, for the documentary, describing its involvement as an example of Taiwan&#039;s ability to connect technology, sports and culture.\r\nRecognising Mumbai&#039;s international standing as a filmmaking centre, Chang expressed hope that the festival would encourage stronger partnerships between Taiwanese and Indian filmmakers, producers and creative communities.\r\nMs. Isabel Lin, Head of the Cultural Division at TECC India, highlighted the diversity of Taiwanese cinema, explaining that the festival&#039;s selection had been designed to introduce Indian audiences to the island&#039;s history, cultural identity, social issues and personal experiences through compelling storytelling.\r\nThe second screening, Before the Bright Day, directed by Shih-Han Tsao, explored adolescence and family relationships against the politically turbulent backdrop of the 1996 Taiwan Strait Crisis. The film had earned nominations at the Golden Horse Awards and recognition at international festivals.\r\nThe concluding film, Deep Quiet Room, directed by Shen Ko-shang, examined grief, psychological trauma and complex family relationships. It received seven nominations at the 2025 Golden Horse Awards and major honours at the Pingyao International Film Festival.\r\nThe enthusiastic audience response in Mumbai further strengthened the festival&#039;s role as a cultural bridge between Taiwan and India. Beyond introducing Indian viewers to Taiwan&#039;s cinematic creativity and diverse society, the event brought Taiwanese expatriate families closer to their cultural roots, transforming a film festival into a shared celebration of cinema, identity and people-to-people connections.","articleSection":"Entertainment","datePublished":"2026-11-02T21:44:06+0530","dateModified":"2026-11-02T21:49:10+0530","inLanguage":"en-us","author":{"@type":"Person","name":"Correspondent Desk","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com/user/marudharabharti"},"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Marudhara Bharti English","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com/uploads/logo/logo_6ab9270c36c334-01124948.png"}},"image":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEihGQ0xkj_1pWvwbzpOqg6oVzLLFOBIJXjlCgQvVtQhFJS7vECdvGUmZlO7ZeQPLzWKVepiAC6IwUCx1He17oOtLNrk2cyuHQMihXMhoGUOuU4XzboqXeBTEF25nTGrNA148BzDjWUauh7rgdkTSCuLhfuqDoimPcVE-QmENx-B5jkXTtYNV2bBDU0yi1Q-/w1600/image.jpeg","contentUrl":"https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEihGQ0xkj_1pWvwbzpOqg6oVzLLFOBIJXjlCgQvVtQhFJS7vECdvGUmZlO7ZeQPLzWKVepiAC6IwUCx1He17oOtLNrk2cyuHQMihXMhoGUOuU4XzboqXeBTEF25nTGrNA148BzDjWUauh7rgdkTSCuLhfuqDoimPcVE-QmENx-B5jkXTtYNV2bBDU0yi1Q-/w1600/image.jpeg"},"keywords":["Taiwan","Film","Festival","Draws","Packed","shows","Mumbai","","Wins","Accolades"]}</script>

Improved road infrastructure, access to employment centres and the growth of surrounding social infrastructure have made the area a consideration for homebuyers looking for long-term residential options in the National Capital Region (NCR).\r\nFor those comparing properties on Dwarka Expressway, the decision involves more than location alone. Connectivity, neighbourhood facilities, residential planning, developer credibility and legal documentation all play an important role in determining whether a property meets a buyer’s needs.\r\nWhy Is Dwarka Expressway Attracting Homebuyers?\r\nThe expressway connects Gurugram with Delhi and provides access to major business districts, transport links and residential neighbourhoods. Its proximity to Indira Gandhi International Airport, Cyber City and Yashobhoomi, the India International Convention &amp;amp; Expo Centre, makes the corridor relevant to professionals and families seeking convenient access to key destinations.\r\nSector 106 is one of the locations buyers can evaluate when comparing residential projects in the area. However, actual road access, peak-hour travel times and the availability of essential services should be assessed independently rather than relying entirely on projected infrastructure developments.\r\nWhat Types of Residential Projects Are Available?\r\nThe residential landscape along Dwarka Expressway includes developments with different layouts, amenities and approaches to community living. While high-rise apartments appeal to buyers who prefer vertical communities, low-rise developments may suit those who place greater importance on privacy, open spaces and a less densely planned environment.\r\nFor example, Vanmaya Premium Residences by Agrante Developers in Sector 106, Gurugram, represents the low-rise residential format. The gated community comprises 404 homes, with planning that emphasises landscaped surroundings, spacing between buildings and outdoor areas.\r\nThe project includes nature-oriented features such as parks, herbal gardens, walking trails, yoga and meditation pavilions, and dedicated children’s activity spaces. These features illustrate the range of considerations buyers may encounter when comparing residential developments along the corridor.\r\nThe suitability of any project ultimately depends on individual preferences, budget, available configurations and verified specifications.\r\nConnectivity and Social Infrastructure\r\nConnectivity remains an important factor when choosing flats on Dwarka Expressway. Access to workplaces, schools, healthcare facilities and railway stations can influence daily convenience and commuting costs.\r\nAccording to developer-provided estimates, Vanmaya in Sector 106 is approximately 15 minutes from Indira Gandhi International Airport and Cyber City, around 16 minutes from Yashobhoomi and approximately 10 minutes from Gurugram Railway Station under normal traffic conditions. Actual journey times may vary depending on traffic and route conditions.\r\nHomebuyers should test these routes during their usual commuting hours and check the accessibility of nearby schools, hospitals, shopping facilities and public transport before making a decision.\r\nWhat Should Buyers Check Before Purchasing a Property?\r\nA structured evaluation can help buyers compare residential projects more effectively.\r\n\r\nLocation and accessibility: Assess daily commute times and access to essential services.\r\nResidential planning: Compare layouts, natural light, ventilation, privacy, open spaces and security.\r\nDeveloper credibility: Review the developer’s track record, construction progress and project commitments.\r\nLegal compliance: Verify applicable approvals and registration details through the official Haryana Real Estate Regulatory Authority (HRERA) portal.\r\nFinancial considerations: Understand the payment schedule, additional charges, agreement terms and stated possession timeline.\r\n\r\nVANMAYA is listed with HRERA registration number GGM/1027/759/2025/130 in the available project information. Buyers should independently verify this information against the latest official records before proceeding.\r\nMaking an Informed Homebuying Decision\r\nDwarka Expressway offers a variety of residential options, but the right choice depends on a buyer’s lifestyle, financial plans and expectations from a home. Comparing locations, evaluating community layouts and verifying project documentation can help narrow the options.\r\nWhether considering a high-rise apartment or a low-rise development such as Vanmaya by Agrante Developers, buyers should prioritise practical requirements over promotional claims. Reviewing official project details and visiting shortlisted properties can provide a clearer understanding of what each development offers.\r\nWith careful research and realistic expectations, homebuyers can make a more informed decision when evaluating residential properties along Dwarka Expressway.\r\nIf you object to the content of this press release, please notify us at pr.error.rectification@gmail.com.

A white tea of silver-tipped buds from the Nilgiris. A roasted Kukicha that tastes of toasted nuts. None of them is what most people picture when they think of Indian tea, and all of them start with Indian leaf.\r\nThey are part of the collection at Xah (www.xah.co.in), a young specialty tea brand that pairs India’s tea heritage with a modern, flavour-led approach. Its motto sums up the attitude: more zeal, less zen.\r\n“India has such a rich relationship with tea, and we grow some truly remarkable teas here. But there is so much more to explore than the ways most of us are used to drinking it. At Xah, we want people to discover different leaves, flavours and brewing styles without feeling that they need to be experts,” says co-founder Kalyani.\r\nClose to the source\r\nKalyani’s path to tea was an unexpected one. A lawyer and ICF-credentialed executive coach, she quit coffee and fell hard for tea. Travelling through Europe, she kept being served exceptional teas, only to find that the leaf was Indian.\r\nHer co-founder Rahul, son of a reputed tea planter, grew up among the tea gardens of Assam, and some of Xah’s Assam teas are sourced from his family’s garden. When he poured her a cup from it, the idea for Xah took shape: India’s best tea deserves to be enjoyed in India.\r\nXah works directly with growers across Assam, the Nilgiris and other regions, guided by a council of multi-generational planters and veteran tea tasters. The aim is simple: let people taste the differences between varieties, processing methods and flavour profiles, rather than treating tea as a commodity.\r\n\r\nWhole-leaf teas, rare finds and unexpected flavours\r\nApart from its Matcha, every tea in Xah’s collection is grown in India. Alongside Nilgiri Oolong, with its notes of stone fruits like peach or apricot, are styles few associate with Indian gardens: Kukicha, a roasted stem tea from Coonoor with a warm, nutty flavour, and Platinum Needle, a premium bud-only white tea.\r\nThen there is Phalap, one of India’s oldest tea traditions. Made by the Singpho community of Assam, it is filled inside bamboo and smoked over woodfire, giving a deep, smoky cup with a story to match.\r\nThe range also includes tisanes made out of herbs, flowers and fruits. Beyond hot brews, Xah explores cold brews and sparkling teas, and shares recipes and ideas for tea cocktails.\r\nNew to loose-leaf tea? Coffee drinkers often start with the Kukicha. The approach is serious about the leaf but relaxed about the rules, and you don’t need a tea taster’s vocabulary to find something you love.\r\nTea is better when it’s shared\r\nIn Bengaluru, visitors can taste their way through the collection at Xah’s tea store on 80 Feet Road, Indiranagar, and find favourites beyond the usual daily brew. Xah also hosts tea-tasting and tea-blending sessions, where participants compare varieties and experiment with combinations, whether they are specialty-tea regulars or simply curious. Sustainable packaging reflects its aim to consider tea’s whole journey from grower to cup.\r\nThe approach is already getting noticed: in September 2026, Mid-day named Xah among its “Next Big Brands of India”.\r\nA different kind of festive gift\r\nXah offers a fresh alternative to the usual sweets and dry-fruit boxes. Curated tea gift boxes are available through this festive season and on request. For a gift with a story, few things say “made in India” like a tea grown in India’s own gardens.\r\nXah, wherever you are\r\nOutside Bengaluru, Xah’s whole-leaf teas are available on its website and other e-commerce channels.\r\nYou can keep your everyday chai exactly as you like it. Or try an Oolong, a smoky Phalap, a cold brew green tea or a delicate cup of white tea. There is no single right way to enjoy tea, and that may be the most interesting thing about it.\r\nAbout Xah\r\nXah is a Bengaluru-based specialty tea brand founded by Kalyani and Rahul. Working directly with growers and microlots across India, it brings together Indian tea heritage and a modern approach to flavour. Its collection includes specialty whole-leaf black, green, white and Oolong teas, Matcha, Kukicha, Phalap, tisanes and artisanal blends, available online, on Amazon and at its tea store in Indiranagar.\r\nTea store: G-01, Ground Floor, Smart Avenue, 80 Feet Road, Indiranagar, Bengaluru 560038\r\nExplore the collection: xah.co.in\r\nIf you object to the content of this press release, please notify us at pr.error.rectification@gmail.com.

The debut range covers skin care, body care and hair care, and will be available from November 2026 through a soft launch on the brand’s official website, neemyukt.com.\r\nFor generations, neem has held a special place in Indian homes. Neemyukt builds on that familiarity by making neem the common thread across its entire range. Each product brings neem together with botanicals that Indian households have long known and trusted, such as aloe vera, tulsi, bhringraj, kesar and tea tree, and pairs them with carefully selected modern ingredients.\r\nEvery product is formulated and manufactured in India. The range is made without parabens, sulphates, silicones, formaldehyde donors and mineral oil, and is vegan and cruelty-free.\r\nUnlike many new brands that start with one or two hero products, Neemyukt is launching with a complete routine. Customers can explore products for the face, body, and hair under one roof, and choose to move their entire regimen to the brand at once.\r\n“Neem has always been part of our homes, from the neem tree in the courtyard to the remedies our grandmothers swore by, yet it rarely gets the attention it deserves in modern personal care. With Neemyukt, we wanted to change that by building an entire daily routine around neem instead of treating it as just another ingredient on the label, and we took our time with every formulation so that each product feels right from the very first use,” said Vipul Sipani, Co-founder, Rare Earth Lifestyle Private Limited.\r\n“The trust people already place in neem is what pushed us to start Neemyukt. Our aim was to bring that same familiar goodness into products people genuinely look forward to using every day, for their skin, body and hair, and we hope Neemyukt becomes the brand people can rely on, day after day,” said Shital Vipul Sipani, Co-founder, Rare Earth Lifestyle Private Limited.\r\nNeemyukt will be sold directly to customers through neemyukt.com. The full range can be previewed on the website ahead of the November launch, with further details on pricing and availability to be shared closer to the date.","articleSection":"Business","datePublished":"2026-10-31T21:09:33+0530","dateModified":"2026-10-31T21:10:10+0530","inLanguage":"en-us","author":{"@type":"Person","name":"PNN","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com/user/pnnindia"},"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Marudhara Bharti English","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com/uploads/logo/logo_6ab9270c36c334-01124948.png"}},"image":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://pnndigital.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/10/PNN-2026-10-31T183551.245.jpg","contentUrl":"https://pnndigital.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/10/PNN-2026-10-31T183551.245.jpg"},"keywords":["Rare","Earth","Lifestyle","Launches","Neem-Led","Personal","Care","Brand","Neemyukt"]}</script>

The caterer is booked, the venue is visited more than once, and the guest list goes through several versions. Yet one question can remain difficult to resolve: how do you comfortably accommodate everyone who comes to celebrate?\r\nFor Gali Arundar Sai and Subhash Chunduri, the founders of HostMyGuest, this was a problem they experienced firsthand. At a cousin’s wedding, accommodating relatives travelling from different places became hectic. Hotel rooms had to be arranged, leaving family members scattered across locations when spending time together was an important part of the occasion.\r\nA later experience made the idea more tangible. A friend preparing for a pellichupulu, a traditional Telugu pre-wedding meeting, needed additional seating for guests. Arundar Sai offered sofas from his own home to help. The experience prompted a question: if a relatively small gathering needed extra furniture, how much greater could the need be for weddings and other occasions?\r\nThat observation became the starting point for HostMyGuest, founded in April 2026. The company is building its business around On-Demand Furnishing for hosting, helping people prepare their homes and other residential spaces for guests during the period they need them.\r\nBuilding a business around an occasional need\r\nHosting is often associated with weddings, festivals and visits from relatives. But the ways people use their homes to bring others together are becoming more varied. A living room can become the setting for a supper club, a terrace can host a weekend brunch, and an apartment can accommodate a book club, a board-game evening or a small music gathering.\r\nThese occasions differ in scale, but they can create a similar practical challenge: the space may be suitable for bringing people together, yet lack the seating, sleeping arrangements or other essentials needed to host them comfortably.\r\nFor someone organising a family wedding, that could mean preparing an additional flat for relatives. For a person hosting a dinner for friends or a community gathering at home, it could mean arranging extra seating for an evening. The requirements depend on the occasion, the number of guests and the space available.\r\nHostMyGuest is built around helping hosts prepare for these needs without permanently furnishing a space for occasional use or coordinating every requirement themselves. The idea is to make existing spaces more suitable for hosting, whether the gathering lasts an evening or involves guests staying for several days.\r\nThe opportunity lies in recognising that hosting is not limited to a single type of event. It is a recurring need that appears in different forms throughout the year.\r\nBootstrapping by proving the idea first\r\nFor HostMyGuest, the initial challenge was to establish whether this need could support a business. Rather than beginning with a technology platform, the founders focused on testing the concept through actual customer demand.\r\nThe approach was to build a proof of concept, generate revenue through the service and use that revenue to support the business as it grew. The founders developed the operational side first and moved towards building an application and other technology after reaching a point where customer demand indicated that the model was working.\r\nThis sequence allowed them to learn from real bookings before investing in a more developed technical setup. It also meant that the early business had to work through the practical details of serving customers, coordinating requirements and managing available inventory.\r\nFor a service that depends on physical setups and specific dates, these decisions are important. Technology can make the experience easier to manage, but the underlying service must first be able to deliver what customers need.\r\nEarning the first customers\r\nFor a new business operating in an unfamiliar category, attracting customers involves more than explaining the service. People also need to feel confident that the arrangement will work as expected.\r\nHostMyGuest began building its customer base through personal networks and an organic digital presence. Since launching in April 2026, the company says it has served more than 400 guests across events in Hyderabad. It also reports that referrals account for the majority of its bookings.\r\nOne early referral came through a wedding. The bride&#039;s side used HostMyGuest for pre-wedding occasions, including celebrations such as the sangeet and haldi. After experiencing the service, they recommended it to the groom&#039;s side, extending the company&#039;s reach through the same wedding.\r\nThe example illustrates how one hosting requirement can lead to another. A family preparing for a celebration may introduce the service to another family facing a similar need, allowing the business to grow through recommendations rather than relying entirely on paid customer acquisition.\r\nFor HostMyGuest, these early relationships have helped demonstrate the importance of the customer experience. A host is coordinating an occasion with several moving parts, and the furnishing arrangement needs to fit into those plans.\r\nThe work behind the experience\r\nThe customer-facing idea may be straightforward, but delivering it requires flexibility. A customer&#039;s requirements can change significantly between the initial enquiry and the final booking. Someone may increase an order, double or triple the quantity originally discussed, change the setup, or decide not to proceed. Customers may also request delivery at a very specific time, adding another layer to the coordination.\r\nThese changes make planning inventory and scheduling deliveries more complex. The team must understand what a host needs while working within the practical limits of available items, delivery schedules and setup requirements.\r\nAnother challenge has been building trust in a new category. In the early stages, some prospective customers were hesitant to pay an advance because they were unfamiliar with the business model. The founders had to spend time on calls and provide additional proof to reassure customers before they committed to a booking.\r\nFor a young company, this is part of establishing credibility. Customers need to understand what the service includes, how the arrangement will work and whether their requirements will be met on the agreed dates.\r\nThese experiences are also part of learning how to operate the business more effectively. As bookings grow, clearer processes for confirming requirements, managing changes and coordinating delivery become increasingly important.\r\nWhat comes next for HostMyGuest\r\nHostMyGuest&#039;s next stage involves expanding beyond Hyderabad while simplifying its current business model. The founders have set a target of entering at least six cities, with a potential expansion to twelve, by the end of the 2027 financial year.\r\nAchieving that goal will require the company to build operational capacity in new markets while maintaining the reliability expected by hosts. Each location will bring its own customer requirements, scheduling considerations and inventory needs.\r\nThe broader opportunity also extends beyond traditional family occasions. As people use their homes for more social and community activities, temporary hosting setups could serve a wider range of gatherings, from intimate dinners and hobby groups to creative meetups and small team sessions.\r\nFor HostMyGuest, the challenge is to make this flexibility practical and dependable. That means developing a business that can respond to different occasions while keeping the experience straightforward for the person doing the hosting.\r\nThe idea began with a familiar problem at a family wedding and became clearer when a friend needed extra seating for a smaller gathering. Both experiences pointed to the same opportunity: people may have a space where they want to bring others together, but preparing it for the occasion can take additional effort.\r\nHostMyGuest is building its business around that gap. Its next chapter will depend on how effectively it can turn an occasional need into a reliable service for hosts across more cities and a wider variety of gatherings.\r\n","articleSection":"Business","datePublished":"2026-10-31T15:23:11+0530","dateModified":"2026-10-31T15:24:10+0530","inLanguage":"en-us","author":{"@type":"Person","name":"Correspondent Desk","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com/user/marudharabharti"},"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Marudhara Bharti English","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com/uploads/logo/logo_6ab9270c36c334-01124948.png"}},"image":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi09pRISg6zQMrgV-BQzgGZc5-pYqS233ykDZCqBnl1xMdPzaJC2TDH5XO_MehfNQ133GqACMrq3CX7W_-Ley2HXs2oCZG62dAJnNjnvV4uG-fg0g03mkxrK1OkSYXbHb1wuhyiC60j0KuH9HXsQjY7pQw07OieIt4JONt5qHLwomx62_-t31N0Fqx26Hqu/w1600/PNN-2026-10-30T192209.905.jpg","contentUrl":"https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi09pRISg6zQMrgV-BQzgGZc5-pYqS233ykDZCqBnl1xMdPzaJC2TDH5XO_MehfNQ133GqACMrq3CX7W_-Ley2HXs2oCZG62dAJnNjnvV4uG-fg0g03mkxrK1OkSYXbHb1wuhyiC60j0KuH9HXsQjY7pQw07OieIt4JONt5qHLwomx62_-t31N0Fqx26Hqu/w1600/PNN-2026-10-30T192209.905.jpg"},"keywords":["HostMyGuest:","Hyderabad’s","Bootstrapped","Consumer","Startup","2026"]}</script>

While TDR has traditionally involved multiple stakeholders, negotiations and documentation, the emergence of digital TDR exchanges is beginning to change how these transactions can be managed.\r\nA digital TDR exchange brings TDR owners, developers, builders and other stakeholders onto a structured digital platform where development rights can be discovered, transacted and managed through connected workflows — moving these transactions from a largely fragmented process toward a more organised and transparent marketplace.\r\nTraditional TDR transactions involve multiple steps, including certification, listing, buyer discovery, negotiation, documentation, payments, compliance and registration. When managed through fragmented processes, stakeholders face limited market visibility, administrative delays and repeated coordination. A digital TDR exchange can bring these stages together within a centralised ecosystem, enabling participants to access relevant information, discover available development rights and progress transactions through digital workflows.\r\nGreater market transparency is one of the most significant advantages of this shift. In conventional transactions, stakeholders may have limited access to information about available TDR, prevailing rates and market activity. A centralised digital platform can provide greater visibility, helping buyers and sellers make decisions based on relevant market information — creating wider market access for TDR owners and simplifying the process of identifying suitable TDR opportunities for developers.\r\nAdvanced technologies are also creating new possibilities for the TDR ecosystem. Blockchain can support secure and tamper-resistant records, while AI and analytics can help derive insights from transaction and market data. Digital workflows can reduce paperwork and physical interactions, while integrated payment mechanisms can connect financial transactions with the broader transaction journey — together creating a more connected and reliable TDR ecosystem.\r\nThe evolution of TDR exchanges reflects a broader shift taking place across urban governance and real estate — from manual processes toward digital, data-driven ecosystems. As cities become increasingly technology-enabled, the systems supporting development rights will also need to evolve. A digital TDR exchange can provide the infrastructure for a market that is more transparent, accessible, efficient and technology-driven.\r\nSoftTech Engineers Limited&#039;s CivitTDRx is designed to support this evolution, enabling a connected digital ecosystem where development rights can be discovered, transacted and managed more efficiently across India&#039;s urban landscape.\r\nAboutSoftTechEngineers Limited\r\nSoftTech Engineers Limited (SEL) is a technology company focused on developing digital solutions for the Architecture, Engineering, Construction and Operations (AECO), and infrastructure sectors.

Ltd. (NavTech) has unveiled OpticSpectra 10G QKD, an India-developed Free Space Optical (FSO) communication system designed to combine data speeds of up to 10 Gbps with Quantum Key Distribution (QKD) capability, at India Mobile Congress 2026. The platform is designed for optical wireless links of up to 5 km and is aimed primarily at telecom, defence and other security-sensitive communication environments where high-capacity connectivity and secure key exchange are increasingly important\r\nThe system was unveiled at IMC 2026 in the presence of Shri Anil Kumar Lahoti, Chairman, Telecom Regulatory Authority of India (TRAI), underscoring the growing policy and industry interest around indigenous optical and next-generation secure communication technologies.\r\nShri Anil Kumar Lahoti, Chairman, Telecom Regulatory Authority of India (TRAI) said “India’s progress in indigenous optical wireless communication and quantum technologies reflects the growing capabilities of our domestic technology ecosystem. Innovations that bring together high-speed connectivity, secure communications and advanced photonics have the potential to contribute meaningfully to India’s digital infrastructure and technological self-reliance.”\r\nHigh-Speed Optical Communication With QKD Capability\r\nFree Space Optical communication transmits data between two points using highly directional beams of light rather than a physical fibre connection across the complete link. QKD is designed to enable the generation and exchange of cryptographic keys using quantum principles, adding a security-oriented capability to the communication architecture when correctly implemented and integrated.\r\nBy bringing the two technologies together, OpticSpectra 10G QKD is intended to support applications where both data capacity and communication security matter. NavTech sees potential use in telecom infrastructure, defence networks, strategic facilities and other mission-critical links.\r\nFor telecom networks, the system can support high-capacity optical connectivity where extending fibre may be difficult or time-consuming. For defence and strategic networks, the company is positioning the platform for communication requirements that place greater emphasis on secure key distribution, rapid deployment and network resilience.\r\nDesigned and Developed in India\r\nOpticSpectra 10G QKD forms part of NavTech’s broader effort to develop advanced optical, laser and photonics-based communication technologies in India and move them from R&amp;amp;D into deployable systems for domestic and international markets.\r\nThe next phase of communication infrastructure will need to address capacity and security together. With OpticSpectra 10G QKD, our objective is to combine high-speed optical wireless communication with advanced key-distribution capability in an India-developed platform for telecom, defence and strategic networks,” said Hardik Soni, Co-Founder &amp;amp; CTO, Nav Wireless Technologies.\r\nHe further added “We want to take photonics technologies from Indian R&amp;amp;D into practical deployments. IMC gives us an important platform to demonstrate that transition from research to deployable deep-tech systems.”\r\nQKD-Enabled Communication Gains Strategic Relevance\r\nAs communication networks become more data-intensive and security-sensitive, telecom and strategic infrastructure operators are evaluating technologies that can strengthen both capacity and protection of critical communications. NavTech believes QKD-enabled optical wireless systems can become one of the specialised building blocks within that broader transition. The company is developing its optical communication portfolio as a complementary layer alongside fibre, radio-frequency and satellite networks, with different systems addressing capacity, distance and security requirements.\r\nAbout Nav Wireless Technologies\r\nNav Wireless Technologies Pvt. Ltd. is an Indian deep-tech company developing advanced optical communication technologies, including Free-Space Optical Communication (FSOC), VLC and next-generation photonic communication solutions. The company is focused on extending high-capacity connectivity beyond conventional fibre infrastructure for telecommunications, enterprise, defence, remote connectivity and other specialised applications.\r\n","articleSection":"Business","datePublished":"2026-10-31T15:23:06+0530","dateModified":"2026-10-31T16:09:45+0530","inLanguage":"en-us","author":{"@type":"Person","name":"PNN","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com/user/pnnindia"},"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Marudhara Bharti English","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com/uploads/logo/logo_6ab9270c36c334-01124948.png"}},"image":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://pnndigital.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/10/PNN-2026-10-31T111311.750.jpg","contentUrl":"https://pnndigital.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/10/PNN-2026-10-31T111311.750.jpg"},"keywords":["NavTech","10 Gbps QKD","Optical Wireless System","IMC 2026","Telecom and Defence Networks"]}</script>

Dhruv Consultancy Services Reflects How Consultants Can Differentiate Through Technical Expertise, Empanelments.\r\nNew Delhi [India], October 31: For most of the past decade, the key number in Indian roads was kilometres a day. It peaked at 36.8 in FY21. CareEdge Ratings now expects it to fall to about 21 Km in FY27, or roughly 7,750 km for the year, after national highway awards fell from a peak of 12,731 km in FY22 to an estimated 7,000 km in FY26.\r\nAt first glance, this may suggest a slowdown in the road infrastructure sector. However, government spending remains strong. What is changing is the focus of investment, with greater attention being given to project quality, proper execution and supervision. This is creating more opportunities for engineering consultants involved in designing, monitoring and certifying infrastructure projects.\r\nStrengthening The Spending Base Behind Indian Roads\r\nThe Ministry of Road Transport and Highways has a FY27 budget of ₹ 3.10 lakh Cr, 8% above the previous year’s revised estimate, according to PRS Legislative Research.\r\n\r\nCapital spending: ₹ 2.94 lakh Cr of the FY27 budget\r\nNHAI capex in FY26: ₹2.44 lakh Cr\r\nNHAI construction in FY26: 5,313 km built against a target of 4,640 km\r\nNational highway Network: Increased from 91,287 km in 2014 to more than 1.47 lakh km.\r\n\r\nFrom Kilometres To Quality: What Authorities Now Expect\r\nThe Indian Road sector is gradually shifting its focus from rapid construction to better project quality and execution, according to CareEdge. The Public Accounts Committee has also highlighted issues such as poor planning, design errors, slope failures, road cracks and waterlogging. These problems show the importance of proper project design and supervision.\r\nTo improve project quality, NHAI has introduced a rating system for companies preparing Detailed Project Reports (DPRs). It has also started evaluating authority and independent engineers who supervise projects, check designs, test materials and verify contractors’ work.\r\nThis shift creates opportunities for engineering consultants to stand out through:\r\n\r\nQuality Work: Preparing accurate designs and DPRs\r\nStrong Supervision: Ensuring proper execution at project sites.\r\nSkilled Teams: Having experienced and qualified engineers.\r\nWide Experience: Handling different types of projects for various clients.\r\n\r\nThe States Takes The Lead: A New Source Of Demand For Consultant\r\nRoad spending is expected to shift more towards state governments in FY27, with greater focus on improving regional roads, state highways and rural connectivity. State agencies are increasingly appointing consultants for project planning, preparing Detailed Project Reports (DPRs), site supervision and project management. Some agencies also appoint consultants to handle multiple projects under a single contract. This creates opportunities for engineering consultants that are empanelled with different government agencies across multiple states, reducing dependence on a single client.\r\nRising Government Projects Drive Demand for Engineering Expertise\r\nDhruv Consultancy Services Limited, established in 2003, is a Navi Mumbai-based infrastructure consultancy with 200+ completed projects and 400+ employees across highways, bridges, railways, metro, airports and ports.\r\nIn August 2026, the company secured its largest-ever order worth ₹40.92 crore from Odisha’s OBCC for a 36-month road and bridge project management assignment. It was also empanelled by Chhattisgarh’s road development corporation for DPR work.\r\nKey Q2 FY27 Orders:\r\n\r\nNHAI: ₹6.84 Cr Independent Engineer contract for the Bodhre–Dhule NH-52 section in Maharashtra\r\nDPR &amp;amp; Survey: ₹3.79 Cr contract covering 249.20 km of Maharashtra roads.\r\nWayside Amenities: Three NHLML awards in Maharashtra with combined annual lease rent of ₹30.84 lakh over 15 years.\r\n\r\nKey Drivers Shaping The Future Of Infrastructure Consultancy\r\nThree factors are likely to play an important role in determining whether quality becomes a stronger basis of competition for consultants in India.\r\n\r\nQuality-Weighted Selection Beyond NHAI: NHAI evaluates consultants based on their experience and work quality. If state governments follow the same approach instead of choosing the lowest bidder, experienced firms like Dhruv Consultancy Services Limited could get more opportunities as it expands its presence across states.\r\nPayment Cycles In A State-Led Spending Cycle: Collection cycles of 60 to 90 days are normal for consultants working with government clients, and they lengthen in remote regions. A state-led spending cycle will test how well consultants manage working capital while hiring ahead of billing.\r\nThe Award Pipeline &amp;amp; Diversification: Supervision contracts depend on new construction projects. Therefore, fewer highway project awards in FY25 and FY26 may reduce consultants’ future orders. Companies working across different states and sectors may be less affected.\r\n\r\n","articleSection":"Business","datePublished":"2026-10-31T15:23:06+0530","dateModified":"2026-10-31T16:10:24+0530","inLanguage":"en-us","author":{"@type":"Person","name":"PNN","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com/user/pnnindia"},"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Marudhara Bharti English","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com/uploads/logo/logo_6ab9270c36c334-01124948.png"}},"image":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://pnndigital.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/10/PNN-2026-10-31T115009.044.jpg","contentUrl":"https://pnndigital.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/10/PNN-2026-10-31T115009.044.jpg"},"keywords":["India’s","Changing","Road","Sector:","Greater","Focus","Quality","","Supervision","Creates","Opportunities","for","Engineering","Consultants"]}</script>

First, at our manufacturing unit, and second, at thousands of Shop counters across the country. These are the foundational stages that make the vision of a greener and safer Earth possible.\r\nThis year, EcoNāma hosted a community of retailers and celebrated the efforts of that second life on 27th September 2026. The Retailers’ Meet 2026 invited stationery retailers and school suppliers in the heart of Mumbai to offer a full day of encouragement and appreciation. It was a day to extend gratitude, to capture their stories, and to plan the journey ahead.\r\nThe Counter Contributes Equal to Manufacturers\r\nThe experienced team of craftsmen at EcoNāma can control almost everything about the manufacturing process of a notebook, how it is made, the raw materials, and what makes it the best choice for the environment. You can read the sustainability page for details (https://econama.in/pages/sustainability). What this team of professionals cannot control is the moment of making a choice.\r\nThe truth is, that belongs to the retailer, and it depends on their trust in the brand. A schoolchild or a guardian who has bought stationery from them for years never bothers to read details. They simply ask the retailers, “Which one is the best?” and when the person behind the counter recommends EcoNāma’s eco-friendly notebooks, they know it is safe and better. This is the moment where sustainability wins.\r\nMore than 500 retailers joined the meet, coming from different parts of the city, to understand the depth of EcoNāma’s mission. The meeting planned to achieve three goals: acknowledging and awarding top performing retail partners that are connected with the brand, build a network of relations by introducing different retailers to each other and to brief them about the coming season and new launches.\r\nA Pledge to Keep our Planet Safe\r\nEcoNāma led an environment awareness program at the meet to ensure that we live up to the certifications and standards that we promise to our retailers. Our mission to leave zero carbon footprints with stationery echoed with our network of retailers when they joined us is this movement with a pledge to keep supporting eco-friendly notebooks.\r\nThis Retailer’s Awareness Program turned a simple slogan of sustainability into a real-life phenomenon. It equipped each retailer with the actual manufacturing story of our notebooks, the environmentally friendly materials involved and the positive impact it leaves on their little ones.\r\nThe motto at EcoNāma is “a movement disguised as a notebook.”More than 500 retailers actively joined this movement and showed commitment to dedicating their network to improving the lives of coming generations.\r\nAn Exclusive Workshop on Retailing!\r\nEcoNāma had invited renowned marketing and entrepreneurship genius, Basesh Gala, to share a presentation on improving retailing and customer interaction. His unique business acumen and interesting insights on the art of selling and retailing enamored the audience.\r\nBashesh Gala did a detailed workshop, sharing useful tricks and ways to share the product and its insider information with customers. His teachings included modern and effective ways of better pitching, sharing the brand’s story, and showcasing how to present the benefits of purchasing the EcoNāma notebooks. Moreover, he demonstrated how customers trust notebooks that don’t compromise quality and yet deliver more than other items.\r\n40 and yet 19: The Common Vision of Experience &amp;amp; Enthusiasm\r\nAs some of you may know, EcoNāma was founded by two visionaries separated by four decades and glued together with the common spirit of sustainability.\r\nHemant Sheth, co-founder and head of marketing for EcoNāma, has given forty years of his life to the development of the paper manufacturing industry. He has worked with companies across the globe including the Middle East, UK, USA, and Australia. While Harshiel Agarwal co-founded EcoNāma as a 19-year-old college student, with the best insights around innovation, development, and the way of the future.\r\nAt the EcoNāma Retailers’ Meet 2026, Hemant congratulated the partners for their achievements and said, “It was a grand success. We have got an exceptionally positive response from our customers. We will continue doing such events annually and ensure that our family of retailers continues to grow.”\r\nSimilarly, Harshiel took the stage with a storm of energy and shared that, “I really cherished the experience of bringing our community together. The presence of 500+ retailers here today is a testament to the growth of sustainability in India. I am sure that the network of our retailers will continue to grow as we take the cause of nature and green notebooks forward.”\r\nThe impact of the assurances from the founders could be seen in the smiles of satisfaction on the faces of the retailers in the audience.\r\nThe Takeaways of 2026: Building A Community of Green Warriors\r\nThe gathering concluded with a feeling of togetherness and a sense of community that stands together as Green Warriors. The three major takeaways were:\r\n\r\nRetailers should pitch the EcoNāma products and inform about the “Return After Use” and other policies.\r\nIn EcoNāma’s case, customers get the good and green together.\r\nEvery Shop, Every Retailer acts as a foundation to the vision of EcoNāma.\r\n\r\nIf you are a retailer, who wants to join the upcoming EcoNāma Retailer Events and wish to work within the network, you can contact them and write to enquiry@saffronindia.net. You can find the full range and exclusive collections of sustainable stationery at EcoNāma’s online store (https://econama.in/).\r\nIf you object to the content of this press release, please notify us at pr.error.rectification@gmail.com. We will respond and rectify the situation within 24 hours.","articleSection":"Business","datePublished":"2026-10-31T15:23:06+0530","dateModified":"2026-10-31T16:11:48+0530","inLanguage":"en-us","author":{"@type":"Person","name":"PNN","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com/user/pnnindia"},"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Marudhara Bharti English","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com/uploads/logo/logo_6ab9270c36c334-01124948.png"}},"image":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://pnndigital.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/10/PNN-2026-10-31T121017.522.jpg","contentUrl":"https://pnndigital.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/10/PNN-2026-10-31T121017.522.jpg"},"keywords":["EcoNāma","Retailers’","Meet","2026:","One","Big","Community"]}</script>

While TDR has traditionally involved multiple stakeholders, negotiations and documentation, the emergence of digital TDR exchanges is beginning to change how these transactions can be managed.\r\nA digital TDR exchange brings TDR owners, developers, builders and other stakeholders onto a structured digital platform where development rights can be discovered, transacted and managed through connected workflows — moving these transactions from a largely fragmented process toward a more organised and transparent marketplace.\r\n\r\nTraditional TDR transactions involve multiple steps, including certification, listing, buyer discovery, negotiation, documentation, payments, compliance and registration. When managed through fragmented processes, stakeholders face limited market visibility, administrative delays and repeated coordination. A digital TDR exchange can bring these stages together within a centralised ecosystem, enabling participants to access relevant information, discover available development rights and progress transactions through digital workflows.\r\nGreater market transparency is one of the most significant advantages of this shift. In conventional transactions, stakeholders may have limited access to information about available TDR, prevailing rates and market activity. A centralised digital platform can provide greater visibility, helping buyers and sellers make decisions based on relevant market information — creating wider market access for TDR owners and simplifying the process of identifying suitable TDR opportunities for developers.\r\nAdvanced technologies are also creating new possibilities for the TDR ecosystem. Blockchain can support secure and tamper-resistant records, while AI and analytics can help derive insights from transaction and market data. Digital workflows can reduce paperwork and physical interactions, while integrated payment mechanisms can connect financial transactions with the broader transaction journey — together creating a more connected and reliable TDR ecosystem.\r\nThe evolution of TDR exchanges reflects a broader shift taking place across urban governance and real estate — from manual processes toward digital, data-driven ecosystems. As cities become increasingly technology-enabled, the systems supporting development rights will also need to evolve. A digital TDR exchange can provide the infrastructure for a market that is more transparent, accessible, efficient and technology-driven.\r\nSoftTech Engineers Limited’s CivitTDRx is designed to support this evolution, enabling a connected digital ecosystem where development rights can be discovered, transacted and managed more efficiently across India’s urban landscape.\r\nAboutSoftTechEngineers Limited\r\nSoftTech Engineers Limited (SEL) is a technology company focused on developing digital solutions for the Architecture, Engineering, Construction and Operations (AECO), and infrastructure sectors.

While some organisations are expanding their teams, others are concentrating on specialised appointments and positions directly linked to business performance.\r\nAccording to Naukri’sSeptember 2026JobSpeakreport, India’s white-collar hiring activity increased 2% year-on-year, while Kolkata recorded 4% growth. Hiring for AI and machine learning roles rose 20%, automobile-sector recruitment increased 11%, and BPO/ITES and Global Capability Centre hiring grew 4% each. In contrast, IT/software services, pharma/biotech and FMCG hiring declined 4% each. These figures track hiring activity within the report’s coverage, rather than total jobs created or industry revenue growth.\r\nFor businesses seeking manpower recruitment services, these differences make a clear hiring strategy increasingly relevant. Recruitment Mantra, a recruitment agency in Kolkata supporting employer mandates across India, lists services covering sourcing, candidate assessment, staffing and leadership recruitment.\r\n“Every hiring mandate represents a business need and a person’s career decision. Recruitment succeeds when both receive equal attention,” said Arghya Sarkar, Founder of Recruitment Mantra.\r\nQ. What does the current hiring market mean for employers?\r\nA. The market requires employers to look closely at the skills they need. Overall hiring growth does not mean that every vacancy will be easy to fill.\r\nA recruitment exercise should begin with three practical questions: what must this employee deliver, which capabilities are essential, and what compensation can the business offer? Clear answers help recruiters identify suitable applicants and give candidates a realistic understanding of the opportunity.\r\nQ. How can Recruitment Mantra support organisations looking to hire manpower?\r\nA. Recruitment Mantra’s published services include candidate sourcing, testing, interview support, permanent recruitment and bulk hiring.\r\nThe approach depends on the requirement. Recruiting a specialist needs a focused search, while building an operational team requires a coordinated pipeline and interview schedule. Employers considering permanent staffing solutions should establish the scope of support, assessment responsibilities and communication process before sourcing begins.\r\nQ. What makes hiring particularly important forstartupsand MSMEs?\r\nA. In a smaller organisation, one appointment can affect several areas of the business. A finance professional may need to strengthen reporting while handling daily accounts. A sales employee may need to develop new business while maintaining existing relationships.\r\nEffective startupand MSME hiring solutions should reflect these working realities. Employers need to separate essential skills from capabilities that can be developed after joining and avoid combining too many unrelated responsibilities into one position.\r\nRecruitment Mantra includes startup and SME recruitment support among its published services.\r\nQ. What should MNCs, corporate groups and conglomerates expect from a recruitment partner?\r\nA. Larger businesses often need coordination across departments, locations and approval processes. They should expect clarity about candidate assessment, reporting and interview management.\r\nFor organisations evaluating corporate recruitment services, sourcing capacity is one consideration. Equally relevant are how feedback is recorded, who owns each stage of the process and how quickly hiring decisions can be made.\r\nA well-managed process also helps candidates understand the role and remain engaged throughout selection.\r\nQ. Which areas of recruitment are showing stronger demand?\r\nA. The September JobSpeak report recorded 19% year-on-year growth in research and development hiring, 18% in merchandising, retail and e-commerce functions, and 17% in construction and site engineering.\r\nThese figures indicate pockets of demand within a selective market. They should guide further investigation rather than be treated as guarantees of opportunities for every candidate or easy recruitment for every employer.\r\nQ. When should a business consider recruitment process outsourcing?\r\nA. An organisation may consider recruitment process outsourcing (RPO) when recurring vacancies, business expansion or recruitment workload require additional delivery capacity.\r\nRecruitment Mantra lists full or partial RPO support among its services. Before entering an arrangement, employers should define the positions covered, assessment responsibilities, reporting expectations and measures of delivery.\r\nInternal hiring managers still have an essential role in providing feedback and taking timely selection decisions.\r\nQ. How should employers approach leadership and business-critical appointments?\r\nA. The search should begin with the business problem the appointment must address. Employers should assess relevant achievements, judgement and experience handling comparable responsibilities.\r\nFor executive search and leadership hiring, clarity about decision-making authority, reporting relationships and performance expectations helps both sides evaluate suitability. Recruitment Mantra includes these services in its published recruitment portfolio.\r\nQ. What should companies clarify before engaging a recruitment consultancy?\r\nA. Businesses evaluating an HR consultancy in Kolkata or a recruitment partner elsewhere should examine the recruitment process alongside commercial terms.\r\nThe written agreement should explain professional fees, any sourcing advance, payment timelines, adjustment provisions and replacement conditions. Recruitment Mantra’s employer FAQ states that the signed agreement governs the specific engagement.\r\nEmployers should also agree on the hiring brief, interview stages and feedback responsibilities before recruitment begins.\r\nQ. Can candidates search and apply for jobs through Recruitment Mantra without paying?\r\nA. Yes. Recruitment Mantra states that applications through its jobs platform are free and that its candidate recruitment process is merit-based and free of charge.\r\nCandidates can search openings, review eligibility criteria and follow the application instructions for suitable vacancies. Selection depends on the employer’s requirements and assessment; submitting an application does not guarantee an interview or appointment.\r\nQ. What can job seekers do to strengthen their applications and avoid fraudulent offers?\r\nA. Candidates should provide an accurate CV highlighting relevant experience, skills, achievements, location and notice period. Before attending an interview, they should understand the responsibilities and available information about working conditions and compensation.\r\nSuspicious communications should be verified through official company channels. Recruitment Mantra’s published fraud alert warns about fake job offers and demands for payment made using its name.\r\nThe latest hiring figures show that growth and caution can exist within the same employment market. For employers, successful recruitment depends on understanding the role, assessing relevant capabilities and making timely decisions. For candidates, clear information and free access to applications support a more informed search.\r\nRecruitment Mantra’s stated model connects employer recruitment support with a no-charge policy for job seekers. As businesses plan their next appointments, the practical measure of recruitment remains the quality of the match—and whether it gives both the organisation and the employee a sound basis for progress.\r\nIf you object to the content of this press release, please notify us at pr.error.rectification@gmail.com.

EBITDA increased to ₹9.1 crores from ₹7.6 crores in H2 FY26, reflecting a 20% sequential improvement, while profit after tax (PAT) stood at ₹2.6 crores, against ₹0.7 crores in H2 FY26, registering a nearly fourfold increase and reflecting a meaningful recovery in profitability.\r\nBuilding on the recovery witnessed during H1 FY27, the Company expects business momentum to strengthen further in the second half of FY27. Supported by improving operational efficiency, higher capacity utilization, better execution and an increasing contribution from value-added brass components, management is optimistic about the Company’s growth trajectory and expects FY27 revenue to exceed ₹600 crore, a lifetime high for the Company.\r\nH1 FY27: Recovery gains momentum\r\nThe Company’s H1 FY27 performance reflects a meaningful improvement over the disruption-impacted second half of FY26.

Achieving this milestone would reflect a significant step-up in business scale, supported by the recovery in operations and continued development of its customer franchise.\r\nAlongside near-term growth, the Company continues to advance its strategic transition toward higher value-added brass components. This focus is expected to support deeper customer relationships, improve product differentiation and strengthen the resilience of its business model over the longer term.\r\nWhile global geopolitical uncertainties and volatility in commodity prices remain relevant industry considerations, management remains confident in the Company’s operational trajectory and its ability to capitalize on improving demand and execution conditions.\r\nMr. Bhavesh Maheshwari, Managing Director, Siyaram Recycling Industries Limited, said:\r\n“H1 FY27 marks a meaningful recovery in our business, with improved revenue and EBITDA reflecting stronger operational momentum and better execution.

Operated by OMRON HEALTHCARE MANUFACTURING INDIA Pvt. Ltd., the facility represents a significant step in the company’s expansion of local manufacturing in India. To mark the launch of full-scale production, the factory’s manufacturing operations were opened to domestic and international media and other stakeholders for the first time.\r\nLocated at ORIGINS by Mahindra, the approximately 24,000-square-meter site has five production lines manufacturing blood pressure monitors for the Indian market. Drawing on production technologies and quality-control expertise developed at OMRON Healthcare’s Matsusaka factory in Japan and its sister facility in Vietnam, the factory manufactures the HEM-7090, HEM-7181, and HEM-7183T series to the same standards of measurement accuracy and quality as the company’s medical devices supplied to international markets. Designed to meet the needs and price expectations of Indian consumers, these range from straightforward models for first-time users to high-end devices with features including Trend Indicator, which alerts users to increases in blood pressure readings, and Bluetooth connectivity with the OMRON Connect health management app. The factory also supports the government’s Make in India initiative through local component sourcing, workforce development, and employment creation.\r\nThis milestone comes as India faces substantial cardiovascular healthcare challenges. Approximately 300 million people nationwide are estimated to be living with hypertension, while the World Health Organization (WHO) identifies cardiovascular diseases like stroke and heart failure among the country’s leading causes of death. As India’s economy continues to grow at approximately 7% annually, lifestyle changes mean that the prevalence of hypertension is expected to rise further, adding to such challenges and increasing the need for preventive healthcare. Yet fewer than 5% of households have a home blood pressure monitor in regular use, while access to healthcare services also remains limited in many regions. By strengthening the domestic supply of blood pressure monitors, OMRON Healthcare aims to support more widespread home monitoring, earlier identification of cardiovascular risks, and improved hypertension management.\r\nOMRON Healthcare has operated in India since 2010, raising awareness of hypertension and the importance of home blood pressure monitoring, supporting academic research, and collaborating with healthcare professionals and local partners to improve cardiovascular care, including working with the Indian Society of Hypertension on the development of India’s first home blood pressure monitoring guidelines. The company aims to build on these efforts by promoting wider adoption of home monitoring and strengthening connections between patients and healthcare professionals to support earlier detection and prevent cardiovascular conditions from worsening. Moving forward, the company aims to increase the Chennai factory’s production capacity tenfold by 2028, in order to ensure a stable supply of blood pressure monitors for the Indian market, develop Chennai as a supply base for international markets, and introduce nebulizer production for the treatment of respiratory conditions such as asthma, strengthening the availability of home healthcare devices in India and beyond.\r\n“Under the OMRON Group’s long-term vision, Shaping the Future 2030, we are working to address three key social challenges: achieving carbon neutrality, realizing a digital society, and extending healthy life expectancy. OMRON Healthcare’s role is to contribute to the third of these, helping people monitor their health as a natural part of everyday life and access appropriate medical care when needed,” said Ayumu Okada, President and CEO, OMRON Healthcare Co., Ltd.\r\n“As India’s economy develops, awareness of health management and preventive healthcare is growing, while timely detection and treatment of cardiovascular disease remain major challenges. Through products and services tailored to local needs, public awareness activities, support for academic research, and contributions to India’s first home blood pressure monitoring guidelines, we have worked to address these challenges.”\r\n“The commencement of full-scale production in Chennai is an important step toward ensuring a stable supply of medical-grade blood pressure monitors in India. By strengthening local manufacturing and deepening collaboration with healthcare professionals and partners, we will continue to contribute to the Make in India initiative and support healthier lives for people across India.”\r\nBlood Pressure Monitors Manufactured at the Chennai Factory\r\n\r\nHEM-7183T Series:Upper-arm blood pressure monitor featuring Trend Indicator, an easy-to-wrap Fit Cuff, and Bluetooth connectivity with the OMRON Connect app.\r\n\r\nHEM-7181 Series: Upper-arm blood pressure monitor featuring Trend Indicator and a memory function for recording previous measurements.\r\n\r\nHEM-7090 Series: Standard upper-arm blood pressure monitor designed for straightforward home measurement, including for first-time users.\r\n\r\nChennai Factory — Key Facts\r\nOperating company:                  OMRON HEALTHCARE MANUFACTURING INDIAPvt.

Ft.","articleBody":"Mumbai (Maharashtra) [India], October 30:Patel Retail Limited (BSE: 544487 | NSE: PATELRMART), a diversified retail and food processing company, proposes to develop approximately 20,000 sq. ft. of additional covered space at its existing distribution centre at its Ambernath facility, Maharashtra, increasing the total area from 64,000 sq. ft. to 84,000 sq. ft.\r\nThe proposed addition will raise the distribution centre’s area by approximately 31%. The existing 64,000 sq. ft. capacity is currently being utilised at 100%, and the additional space is expected to enhance the utilisation of the Company’s existing infrastructure and strengthen its storage, packing and distribution capabilities. It will facilitate smoother and more efficient replenishment of existing retail stores, helping stores keep products consistently available for customers.\r\nThe Ambernath facility is the hub of Patel Retail’s supply chain, supporting warehousing, packaging and distribution to its stores across the region. The additional space will give the Company more room to hold inventory across product categories, including its private labels Indian Chaska, Patel Fresh, Tidymax and Blixo, and to move products to stores more efficiently.\r\nThe expanded capacity will also support upcoming store openings under the Company’s cluster-based expansion strategy, in which stores are added in selected clusters that the distribution centre can serve efficiently.\r\nThe initiative will strengthen the Company’s supply chain, facilitate efficient inventory management and support the planned expansion of its retail network, an important part of its value-driven retail model.\r\nBy building capacity ahead of store additions, Patel Retail aims to maintain product availability, improve service levels and keep operations efficient as its network grows.\r\nCommenting on the expansion, Mr. Dhanji Patel, Chairman &amp;amp; Managing Director of Patel Retail Limited, said “Our distribution centre at Ambernath is central to how we serve our stores. The addition of 20,000 sq. ft. takes the facility to 84,000 sq. ft. and strengthens our storage and distribution capacity. It will enable smoother and more efficient replenishment of our existing stores and support our upcoming store openings under our cluster-based expansion strategy, as we continue to bring organised retail closer to customers across suburban and emerging urban markets.”\r\nAbout Patel Retail Limited\r\nPatel Retail Limited is a leading name in value-driven retail and integrated food processing in India. Headquartered in Ambernath, Mumbai with operations across MMRDA region, the company combines modern retail formats with backward integration in agri-processing to ensure quality, cost efficiency, and supply reliability.

Aetram India Research observed that the precious metal’s retreat, alongside weakness in Indian equities, reflected a difficult week in which defensive demand offered limited protection against broader market pressures.\r\nInternational spot gold ended the week at $3,994 an ounce, down 4.17%. MCX gold futures closed at ₹1,42,150 per 10 grams, declining 3.95%. The supplied week-ending October 23 data placed the U.S. 10-year Treasury yield near 4.99%, compared with approximately 5.10% previously.\r\nGold’s decline despite the weekly easing in Treasury yields suggested that lower yields alone were insufficient to restore demand. Brent crude rose 6.78% to $117.39 a barrel, reinforcing concerns about energy-led inflation and the persistence of restrictive interest rates. Aetram India Research viewed gold’s close near its weekly low as evidence of subdued momentum, with a sustained recovery above $4,000 remaining an initial development to watch.\r\nIndian equities also closed the week lower. The Sensex declined 2.15% to 73,123.83, the Nifty 50 lost 2.36% to 22,600.00, and Bank Nifty fell 2.79% to 54,287.35. Information technology registered a modest 0.22% gain, while metals declined 5.40%, media 5.15%, realty 5.04% and energy 4.62%. The breadth of sectoral losses indicated that weakness extended beyond a few heavyweight shares.\r\nAetram Research maintains a cautious outlook following the broad retreat. The Nifty’s weekly low near 22,372 provides an immediate reference for support, while the weekly high around 23,175 marks an overhead resistance reference. Crude oil prices, U.S. monetary-policy signals and the durability of any recovery in market breadth remain important factors to watch.\r\n AboutAetramTrades\r\nAetram Trades Private Limited is a Chennai-headquartered brokerage firm offering trading and investment services across Indian financial markets.

Along with regular hospitalisation coverage, health insurance vs critical illness cover is becoming an important consideration for those exploring different types of medical protection.\r\nWhile both serve different purposes, understanding their benefits can help individuals prepare for unexpected healthcare expenses. This growing focus on coverage options reflects a shift towards more informed insurance decisions among younger adults.\r\nMedical Expenses Are Becoming a Financial Planning Concern\r\nHealthcare spending is not always predictable. Routine consultations can be planned, unlike surgery, emergency admission or extended treatment. Unexpected medical expenses can place financial pressure on households, particularly when treatment requires hospitalisation or specialised care.\r\nSavings intended for further studies, moving home or supporting parents may also be needed during illness. Insurance cannot remove every expense, but hospitalisation cover can reduce reliance on personal savings for eligible treatment costs.\r\nYounger Buyers Are Looking Beyond the Premium\r\nA lower premium may initially attract attention, but it tells only part of the story. Young adults comparing policies increasingly have reasons to examine what happens when they actually need treatment. A plan with unsuitable hospital access or restrictive conditions may be difficult to use despite appearing affordable.\r\nSome practical details deserve a closer look:\r\n●      Sum insured: The amount available for covered claims.\r\n●      Hospital network: Facilities where cashless treatment may be arranged.\r\n●      Waiting periods: Conditions that affect when certain benefits become available.\r\n●      Room eligibility: Limits or categories that may influence claim payments.\r\nThese terms determine how cover works in practice.\r\nHealth Insurance and Critical Illness Cover Serve Different Needs\r\nRising healthcare expenses are encouraging young adults to look beyond basic hospitalisation coverage. While regular health insurance helps manage eligible medical bills, critical illness cover generally provides a lump sum upon diagnosis of a specified serious illness, subject to policy terms.\r\nThis financial support may help individuals manage recovery expenses, household commitments or temporary income loss during treatment. The growing interest in different coverage options reflects greater awareness among young adults about preparing for medical emergencies and protecting their long-term financial stability.\r\nStarting Early Brings Attention to Policy Continuity\r\nMany people associate medical insurance with middle age. Younger adults, however, can encounter illness or accidents, and some insurance benefits have waiting periods. Buying a policy earlier may allow applicable waiting periods to begin before certain future needs arise. Coverage still depends on the policy wording and accurate medical disclosures.\r\nKeeping a policy active also matters. A missed renewal can affect continuity benefits, while switching insurers involves specific rules. The practical lesson is to think beyond the first purchase and understand what maintaining cover requires over time.\r\nDigital Research Is Changing the Purchase Process\r\nYoung consumers often begin their search online, where policy summaries, hospital directories and application options are readily accessible. This makes comparison more convenient, but it also creates a risk of choosing from short descriptions alone.\r\nBefore applying, readers should examine the policy wording, Customer Information Sheet and claims procedures. They can confirm whether the insurer or intermediary is authorised and ask questions through official channels. Online tools make information easier to access; they do not replace the need to understand the contract.\r\nFamily Responsibilities Influence Coverage Choices\r\nHealth planning often changes when young adults marry, have children or begin supporting ageing parents. A single person’s cover may no longer match the household’s circumstances. Some families prefer a shared sum insured, while others need separate policies because medical requirements differ.\r\nThese decisions are not only about the number of people insured. Hospital availability, existing conditions, available savings and the family’s ability to manage expenses all matter. Reviewing cover after major life changes can prevent assumptions about who is actually protected.\r\nA More Practical View of Financial Preparedness\r\nThe changing conversation around health insurance is ultimately about managing uncertainty, not expecting illness. Young adults can begin by understanding current benefits, identifying expenses they could handle themselves and comparing policies for the remaining risks.\r\nAn emergency fund still has a role because insurance pays according to defined conditions. Healthcare needs and policy features can change, so regular reviews remain useful. For a generation balancing present expenses with plans, informed medical cover is becoming part of wider financial preparedness.\r\nIf you object to the content of this press release, please notify us at pr.error.rectification@gmail.com.

CivitTDRx addresses this need by taking a digital-first approach to the TDR ecosystem.\r\nAddressing the Need for a Digital TDR Ecosystem\r\nTDR transactions can involve several stakeholders and multiple stages — from certificate issuance and listing to buyer discovery, transactions, contracts, payments, compliance and registration. Managing these activities through fragmented processes can create information gaps and administrative complexity. CivitTDRx brings these activities together through a centralised platform, creating a more transparent, efficient and accessible environment for TDR transactions.\r\nBringing Buyers and Sellers into a Connected Marketplace\r\nAt the heart of CivitTDRx is the concept of a digital TDR marketplace. The platform enables TDR owners to make development rights available digitally while providing developers and buyers with a structured environment to discover relevant opportunities — moving TDR transactions beyond individual networks and offline interactions toward a more organised digital marketplace.\r\nTechnology-Enabled Transactions\r\nCivitTDRx brings together digital workflows and advanced technology capabilities to support the evolving TDR ecosystem. Blockchain supports secure and tamper-resistant digital records, strengthening trust and auditability. AI and analytics transform market and transaction data into actionable insights, supporting better understanding of pricing patterns and market trends. Digital workflows reduce paperwork and manual coordination, while integrated payment processes connect financial activities with the overall transaction journey.\r\nConnecting the TDR Lifecycle\r\nThe platform is designed around a connected transaction lifecycle — from TDR Creation and Listing through Market Discovery, Transaction, Documentation, Payment, Compliance and Registration. Connecting these stages reduces fragmentation, provides greater visibility throughout the transaction journey and creates the foundation for a comprehensive digital record supporting transparency and accountability.\r\nCivitTDRx supports different stakeholders across the TDR ecosystem — providing TDR owners with greater digital market access and structured transaction processes; giving developers and builders improved visibility into TDR opportunities; and enabling authorities and ecosystem stakeholders to benefit from greater transaction visibility, digital documentation and compliance tracking.\r\n\r\nMr. Vijay Gupta, Founder, Chairman, and Managing Director of SoftTech\r\nShaping the Future of TDR Transactions\r\nThe evolution of TDR exchanges reflects the broader digital transformation taking place across India’s urban development ecosystem. As cities become more digitally connected, the ability to manage development rights through transparent, technology-enabled platforms becomes increasingly important. With CivitTDRx, SoftTech Engineers Limited is bringing a digital-first approach to the TDR ecosystem — moving development rights toward connected digital marketplaces where they can be discovered, transacted and managed through a smarter and more transparent ecosystem.\r\nAbout SoftTech Engineers Limited\r\nSoftTech Engineers Limited (SEL) is a technology company focused on developing digital solutions for the Architecture, Engineering, Construction and Operations (AECO), and infrastructure sectors. The Company provides enterprise platforms that help government bodies and infrastructure organizations digitize planning, approvals, and project monitoring processes.

Biryani at midnight takes 30. Yet for most Indian investors, honest research on the stock they are about to buy is still almost impossible to find.\r\nInstead, they get a message at 9:14 am, one minute before the market opens: “BUY NOW. Target 20% in 2 days.” No reason, no stop-loss, no name behind it, and often money that took months to save on the line.\r\n“If groceries can come in one click, why should research be so hard to get?” asks Ankit Rambabu Jaiswal, a SEBI-registered Research Analyst and the founder of NiveshX. That question is why he built the platform.\r\nThe gap is real. NSE had more than 13 crore unique investors by May 2026, while SEBI’s latest annual report counted just 1,826 registered Research Analysts as on 31 March 2026, roughly one for every 71,000 investors. “How can one analyst reach that many people, let alone give each of them the right guidance?” Jaiswal asks. Anonymous tip channels and unverified “experts” have rushed into that gap, and the people who pay are often first-time investors who can least afford a loss.\r\nNiveshX aims to change that by putting registered research on every investor’s phone. “Whether you’re from a village or a city, whether you have ₹1,000 to invest or ₹1 crore, research should be available at one click,” says Jaiswal.\r\nWhere a tip only tells you what to buy, every NiveshX research idea explains why. Each comes with an investment rationale, an indicative time horizon, defined entry, target and stop-loss levels, and the risks involved. Smart alerts and live tracking follow each idea once it is live. Depending on the plan, users can also access market and sector insights, daily market sentiment, news signals, and portfolio and derivatives research.\r\nThe final decision always stays with the investor. NiveshX does not execute trades or hold customer funds or securities, and users act, if they choose to, through their own broker. “Market investments are subject to risk, and no research view can provide certainty about future outcomes,” says Jaiswal. “We believe investors should have access to clear information and appropriate disclosures, so they can evaluate opportunities independently.”\r\nTo reach investors across the country, NiveshX is priced at about ₹500 a month: under ₹17 a day, less than a morning chai and samosa. Jaiswal is also counting on word of mouth, asking users to share feedback and to recommend the platform to friends and family if it helps them.\r\n“We don’t want to grow alone,” he says. “We want every investor and trader who joins us to rise with us, month after month, year after year. I want to stand beside you through every step of your wealth journey.”\r\nThe next time a “BUY NOW” message lights up your phone, you don’t have to guess. Your next trade deserves a reason. The NiveshX app is available now on mobile and at www.niveshx.com.\r\n\r\nAboutNiveshX\r\nNiveshX is a digital research and market-alerts platform for self-directed investors, available on web and mobile at www.niveshx.com. It operates under the SEBI registration of Ankit Rambabu Jaiswal (Trade Name: BullStockIndia), a SEBI-registered Research Analyst, registration no.

Lord’s Mark’s passion and love for technology and our commitment to the Make in India vision inspired us to embark on this journey three years ago, with a clear ambition to develop world-class indigenous defence technologies that showcase India’s engineering excellence and establish a distinctive presence for the country on the global stage.\r\nThis strategic foresight reflects management’s ambition to move beyond conventional manufacturing, develop proprietary technologies on Indian soil and build the foundation for a potential global monopoly in these specialised product categories. With three years of focused R&amp;amp;D behind its flagship innovations, Brahamastra is now positioned to explore international markets and demonstrate the capabilities of Indian engineering on the global stage.\r\nBrahamastra’s showcased portfolio includes three flagship products—BRAK RT, a long-range laser rangefinder with a day-channel camera; BRAK Alpha, a multipurpose laser rangefinder; and TRC-1, a smart trail camera with no equivalent products available anywhere else in the world.\r\nThe company’s wider portfolio also includes holographic and reflex sights, telescopic sights, thermal imaging sights, handheld thermal imagers, day/night surveillance systems, anti-drone systems and other optoelectronic equipment. Its core focus is on advancing indigenous defence manufacturing in line with the Atmanirbhar Bharat initiative.\r\nThe BRAK RT combines laser-based distance measurement with a dedicated day-observation camera in a single instrument. Its stated specifications include a maximum measuring range of 20,000 metres, distance accuracy of up to one metre (1σ), and the ability to detect up to five targets. Integrated GPS and orientation sensors provide positional and directional information, while its IP68-rated construction is designed for demanding environmental conditions.\r\nBRAK Alpha is a multipurpose laser rangefinder designed to combine distance measurement with target detection and orientation data. It offers a stated measurement range of 10–5,000 metres, accuracy of up to 0.5 metres (1σ), and detection of up to five targets. GPS, azimuth measurement and inclination sensing further support its field-use capabilities.\r\nThe TRC-1 Smart Trail Camera combines motion-triggered imaging with day-and-night capture for field-surveillance applications. Its stated specifications include 5 MP or higher still images, 1080p video, a minimum 120-degree field of view and invisible infrared illumination up to 10 metres. Developed and manufactured in Navi Mumbai, Maharashtra, the product also incorporates a management concept featuring role-based permissions and audit records, with video intended to remain on the camera rather than being centrally stored by the management platform.\r\nA growing market opportunity\r\nThe investment also positions Brahamastra to pursue opportunities in a growing defence technology market. According to MarketsandMarkets, India’s military electro-optics and infrared (EO/IR) market is projected to grow from US$1.19 billion in 2026 to US$1.78 billion by 2030, registering a CAGR of 10.4%. The growth is supported by increasing requirements for night operations, border surveillance and target detection, alongside modernisation across land, air and naval platforms.\r\nGlobally, the military electro-optical and infrared systems market is projected to expand from US$9.09 billion in 2025 to US$10.77 billion by 2031, at a CAGR of 2.87%, according to Mordor Intelligence. Demand for advanced sensors, optics, long-range targeting and surveillance technologies is creating opportunities for specialised product developers.\r\nThese market trends offer Brahamastra a potential pathway to explore international partnerships, product deployment and export opportunities, subject to applicable technical qualifications, regulatory requirements and procurement processes.\r\nCommenting on the strategic vision behind the investment, Dr. Sachidanand Upadhyay, Founder, MD &amp;amp; CEO of Lord’s Mark Industries Limited, said: “Lord’s Mark’s enthusiasm for technology and belief in the Make in India vision led us to embark on this journey three years ago. We saw an opportunity to harness India’s engineering talent and research capabilities to develop world-class indigenous defence technologies with global relevance. Our vision has always been to go beyond fulfilling domestic needs and create products that reflect India’s technological strength on the international stage. Brahamastra’s evolving portfolio is a step in that direction, with the potential to open new markets and establish India as a recognised contributor to specialised defence technology.”\r\nWith its investment in Brahamastra Defence Techno Products Limited, Lord’s Mark Industries Limited is pursuing a long-term strategy centred on indigenous research, advanced product development and global market opportunities. By developing specialised technologies within India, the company aims to contribute to the country’s defence manufacturing capabilities while creating a platform for Brahamastra to explore international markets and demonstrate the strength of Indian engineering on the global stage.","articleSection":"Business","datePublished":"2026-10-30T13:17:36+0530","dateModified":"2026-10-30T15:14:01+0530","inLanguage":"en-us","author":{"@type":"Person","name":"PNN","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com/user/pnnindia"},"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Marudhara Bharti English","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com/uploads/logo/logo_6ab9270c36c334-01124948.png"}},"image":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://pnndigital.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/10/PNN-2026-10-30T105146.977.jpg","contentUrl":"https://pnndigital.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/10/PNN-2026-10-30T105146.977.jpg"},"keywords":["Brahamastra","","Part","Lord’s","Mark","Industries","Limited","","Takes","Indigenous","Defence","Innovation","the","Global","Stage"]}</script>

However, when a journey begins before sunrise or\nstretches across several hours, the experience often depends on more than the\ndestination. Staying comfortable, carrying the right essentials, and preparing\nfor changing weather can make a considerable difference along the way.\n\nFor travellers and motorcycle\nenthusiasts, planning ahead means thinking about clothing, hydration, storage,\nand the conditions expected throughout the journey. A versatile fleece jacket\ncan help provide an additional layer during cooler hours, while a well-designed\nhydration backpack can make carrying water more convenient during outdoor activities.\n\nAs outdoor travel continues to bring\ntogether everyday commuters, road trip enthusiasts, and adventure seekers,\nthese practical considerations are becoming an important part of preparing for\nthe journey.\n\nWhy the Right Travel Essentials Matter\n\nWeather conditions can change\nconsiderably between an early morning departure and an afternoon arrival. A\nroute that begins in a cool city may lead towards warmer plains, open highways,\nor higher elevations where temperatures remain lower. Travellers who plan for\nthese variations are often better prepared to manage their comfort throughout\nthe day.\n\nThe same principle applies to carrying\nessentials. Keeping water, personal belongings, and frequently used items\norganised can make longer journeys easier to manage. Rather than packing\neverything at the last minute, it helps to consider the route, duration,\nweather forecast, and activities planned at the destination.\n\nThree factors deserve particular\nattention when preparing for a road trip or outdoor excursion: suitable\nclothing, convenient hydration, and practical storage.\n\nStaying Comfortable During Chilly Mornings\n\nEarly starts can be refreshing,\nespecially when travelling through scenic countryside or quieter roads.\nHowever, cooler temperatures can make choosing the right clothing important.\nThis is where layering becomes useful.\n\nInstead of relying on one heavy garment,\ntravellers can combine different layers according to the weather and their\nactivity. A comfortable base layer, a fleece jacket, and suitable outerwear can\nprovide flexibility when temperatures fluctuate. The exact combination depends\non the destination, wind conditions, and expected level of physical activity.\n\nFleece jackets are worth considering\nbecause they offer a practical additional layer for cooler conditions without\nnecessarily requiring the bulk of a heavy winter coat.\n\nChoosing a Fleece Jacket for Travel\n\nWhen selecting a fleece jacket,\ntravellers should consider more than its appearance. Fit, freedom of movement,\nfabric weight, ease of packing, and intended use all influence whether a jacket\nis suitable for a particular journey.\n\nFor those looking to build a versatile\noutdoor wardrobe, Eddie Bauer India fleece jackets are worth exploring as part\nof a broader approach to comfortable travel clothing. They can be considered\nfor cool-weather outings, weekend getaways, casual outdoor activities, and\neveryday layering, depending on the specifications of the individual product.\n\nBefore choosing a jacket, it is useful to\ncheck its material, fit, warmth, and care instructions. Travellers heading into\nparticularly cold or windy environments may also need an appropriate\nwind-resistant or weather-protective outer layer.\n\nFor motorcycle journeys, clothing\nselection requires additional care. A fleece jacket is generally an insulating\nlayer rather than a substitute for protective riding equipment. Riders should\nuse suitable motorcycle-specific protective gear and choose layers that work comfortably\nbeneath it without compromising fit or mobility.\n\nKeeping Hydration Accessible During Long Rides\n\nClothing is only one part of preparing\nfor an extended journey. Hydration is equally important, particularly when\ntravelling in warm weather, spending time outdoors, or engaging in physically\ndemanding activities.\n\nDuring long rides and outdoor excursions,\nit can be easy to overlook regular water breaks. Carrying water in an\naccessible and secure way helps travellers plan ahead and makes it easier to\nmaintain a consistent hydration routine.\n\nThis is one reason hydration backpacks\nare worth considering. Depending on their design, they can combine a water\nreservoir and drinking tube with storage for selected personal essentials. This\narrangement can be useful for activities where carrying a separate water bottle\nis less convenient.\n\nWhat to Look for in a Hydration Backpack\n\nChoosing a hydration backpack involves\nconsidering the activity, expected duration, carrying comfort, and amount of\nwater required.\n\nImportant features to evaluate include:\n\n●    \nWater capacity: Choose a reservoir size that suits the length of the activity and\nopportunities to refill.\n\n●    \nFit and stability: Adjustable straps and a secure fit can help keep the backpack\ncomfortable during movement.\n\n●    \nStorage space: Consider whether there is enough room for items such as a phone,\nwallet, keys, or small travel necessities.\n\n●    \nMaterial and construction: Check the fabric, seams, closures, and overall build quality for the\nintended conditions.\n\n●    \nEase of cleaning: A hydration system should be straightforward to clean, dry, and\nmaintain according to the manufacturer&#039;s instructions.\n\nFor riders and outdoor enthusiasts, Vantora\nLife hydration backpacks offer a relevant\nproduct category to explore when planning trips that require convenient water\nstorage and practical carrying solutions. The most suitable option will depend\non the particular backpack&#039;s reservoir capacity, fit, storage configuration,\nand intended use.\n\nHydration backpacks are especially useful\nto consider for activities such as cycling, hiking, and selected outdoor\nadventures. Motorcycle riders should always follow safe riding practices and\ncheck the backpack&#039;s suitability for motorcycling. Water access should be\nmanaged during safe stops, not while operating a motorcycle.\n\nPlanning and Packing for Road Trips and Weekend\nAdventures\n\nA well-planned packing list can help\navoid unnecessary luggage while ensuring that essential items are not\nforgotten. The objective is not to carry more equipment than necessary, but to\nselect items that match the journey.\n\nFor a short winter getaway, travellers\nmay prioritise comfortable layers, weather-appropriate footwear, water, and a\ncompact bag for personal belongings. A longer road trip may require additional\nclothing, charging equipment, toiletries, snacks, and supplies suited to the\ndestination.\n\nA few practical habits can make\npreparation easier.\n\nCheck the weather before leaving. Review the forecast for both the departure point and destination. If\ntemperatures are expected to vary, pack layers that can be added or removed as\nneeded.\n\nKeep frequently used items organised. Store smaller essentials in designated compartments so that they are\neasier to locate when needed.\n\nPlan hydration breaks. Carry an appropriate amount of water and identify opportunities to\nrefill. Requirements vary according to the weather, activity level, and\nindividual needs.\n\nPack according to the activity. A weekend spent exploring a city calls for different equipment from a\nmountain hike or a long motorcycle tour. Choose bags and clothing that suit the\nintended use.\n\nConsider safety alongside comfort. Carry appropriate protective equipment, check your vehicle before\ndeparture, and avoid accessing bags or adjusting clothing while riding.\n\nThese small steps can help make a trip\nfeel more organised, leaving travellers better prepared to enjoy the\nexperience.\n\nCombining Practical Clothing with Functional Travel\nGear\n\nThe most useful travel essentials are\nthose that address a genuine need without adding unnecessary complexity. For\nsome travellers, that means choosing versatile clothing that works across\ndifferent parts of a trip. For others, it means finding a convenient way to\ncarry water and personal belongings during outdoor activities.\n\nEddie Bauer India fleece jackets and\nVantora hydration backpacks represent two different aspects of this\npreparation. The former can be considered when planning clothing layers for\ncooler conditions, while the latter can be explored by travellers who want a\ndedicated hydration-carrying solution for suitable activities.\n\nAlthough they serve different purposes,\nboth categories fit into a wider conversation about making thoughtful choices\nbefore heading outdoors. The key is to assess each product on its own merits,\ncompare its features with personal requirements, and avoid assuming that one\ncombination will suit every destination or activity.\n\nTravellers should also remember that\nweather protection, hydration, and personal safety involve more than clothing\nor a backpack alone. Forecasts, appropriate protective equipment, route\nplanning, and regular breaks remain important parts of a well-prepared journey.\n\nMaking Preparation Part of the Adventure\n\nA memorable road trip is often shaped by\nthe small decisions made before departure. Checking the weather, choosing\ncomfortable layers, organising personal belongings, and planning access to\ndrinking water can all contribute to a more considered travel experience.\n\nFor those preparing for chilly mornings\nand longer outdoor journeys, fleece jackets and backpacks are practical categories to explore according\nto the conditions ahead. Eddie Bauer India offers fleece jackets to consider\nfor cool-weather layering, while Vantora hydration backpacks provide an option\nto investigate for carrying water and selected essentials during suitable\noutdoor activities.\n\nUltimately, the best travel gear is not\nnecessarily the most elaborate. It is the equipment that fits the journey,\nmeets the traveller&#039;s needs, and helps make preparation simpler. With\nthoughtful planning and the right essentials, travellers can focus less on what\nthey might have forgotten and more on the places, experiences, and moments that\nmake the journey worthwhile.Disclaimer: This is a Press Release distributed by HT Syndication.

For first-time pet parents, these questions can be part of learning the ropes, while experienced pet parents continue to discover new things as their pets grow and their needs change. While information is readily available, finding guidance that is relevant to an individual pet and knowing where to turn next can often be overwhelming.TOTO, WAGR’s AI-led pet-parenting element,reflects the brand’s larger vision of being a companion to pet parents helping them navigate the many decisions that come with caring for their pets.\r\nThrough a chat-based interface, it allows users to ask general pet-care questions, access relevant information and explore products across categories such as food and everyday essentials. As part of WAGR’s broader offering, TOTO aims to make everyday pet parenting a more informed and convenient experience.One of TOTO’s key features is its ability to draw on WAGR’s Pet Profile to provide more relevant responses. While the companion can answer general pet-care questions, access to a pet’s profile allows it to take individual details into account when offering guidance.\r\nThis can also help pet parents explore product categories such as food and everyday essentials with their pet’s specific needs in mind. By combining conversational assistance with pet-profile information, TOTO aims to make the search for relevant pet-care information and products a more seamless experience.\r\nSpeaking about TOTO, Mr. Fredun Medhora, Director, WAGR, stated, “Pet parenting is a journey filled with questions, discoveries and decisions that evolve throughout a pet’s life. Often, it is the everyday ‘What Now?’ moments that leave pet parents looking for the right information or a dependable place to start; which is why the Pet Profile also adds an important layer of context to the experience. At WAGR, we want to go beyond being a destination for products and services; we want to be a companion that helps pet parents navigate this journey with greater confidence. TOTO is an important step towards that vision. By bringing conversational AI and pet-specific context together, we aim to make guidance more relevant and the discovery of suitable solutions more intuitive. Our larger ambition is to build a connected pet-parenting ecosystem where information, products, services and support come together around the needs of pets and the people who care for them.”\r\nTOTO forms part of WAGR’s broader offering, which brings together pet-product shopping, service discovery and pet-care knowledge. Within this experience, TOTO gives pet parents a conversational way to explore questions and access information, complementing the other resources available on the platform.\r\nWith TOTO, WAGR aims to make useful pet-care information more accessible as part of the everyday experience of raising a pet. The initiative reflects WAGR’s wider vision of being a companion to pet parents, supporting them as they learn about their pets and navigate the many stages of pet parenting.\r\nTOTO is designed to support general pet-care queries and exploration of non-medical products. For concerns involving a pet’s health, diagnosis or treatment, pet parents should consult a qualified veterinarian.\r\nIf you object to the content of this press release, please notify us at pr.error.rectification@gmail.com.

From vaccinations and nutrition to grooming, behavioural changes and unexpected medical concerns, pet parenting involves a series of decisions that require reliable information, trusted expertise and timely support.\r\nIn India, as pets increasingly become family members, spending is expanding beyond food and accessories to preventive healthcare, grooming, boarding, insurance and specialised services. Yet, while the expectations surrounding pet care are evolving, the ecosystem supporting it remains fragmented.\r\nThe Missing Links in Pet Care\r\nFor pet parents, finding a reliable veterinarian, understanding nutritional needs or choosing a trusted service provider often means navigating multiple platforms and sources. The challenge is not always a lack of information or services, but knowing where to find credible guidance and make informed decisions.\r\nGaps in service standards, access to specialised expertise in smaller cities, and the coordination of products and services further highlight the need for a more connected ecosystem. As the industry grows, these disconnects can affect both the pet-parenting experience and the sector’s ability to scale.\r\nWhy Digital Infrastructure Matters\r\nDigital platforms can help bridge these gaps by bringing information, products, professionals and services closer together. From discovering veterinarians and grooming facilities to accessing credible educational resources and organising essential care, technology can simplify the many decisions involved in responsible pet parenting.\r\nTele-veterinary consultations can extend access to professional guidance, while AI-enabled tools can help pet parents navigate everyday questions, complementing rather than replacing veterinary expertise.\r\nFor the industry, this connectivity can improve product and service discovery, help businesses understand evolving consumer needs and create new opportunities for organised commerce. Digital infrastructure can therefore become more than a convenience; it can serve as the foundation for a more accessible, informed and connected pet-care ecosystem.\r\nCommenting on how a more connected future can be built, Mr. Fedun Medhora, Director, WAGR stated “The next phase of growth in India’s pet-care industry will depend not just on the products and services available, but on how effectively we connect them. Pet parents should not have to navigate multiple sources every time they need information, expert guidance or a dependable service. The opportunity lies in creating an ecosystem where technology simplifies discovery, makes credible information more accessible and connects pet parents with solutions relevant to their needs. If we want the industry to mature sustainably, we must move beyond isolated transactions towards a connected experience that supports pets throughout their lives. Ultimately, the measure of progress will be how confidently and easily pet parents can access the care their companions deserve.”\r\nThe future of India’s pet-care industry will be shaped not simply by expanding consumer spending, but by making care easier to access and navigate. For pet parents, progress means spending less time searching across disconnected sources and more time making informed decisions for their companions.\r\nThe next evolution of pet parenting may lie in having a trusted starting point for every need – one that brings together the right information, products, services and support as pets grow through different stages of life.\r\n","articleSection":"Business","datePublished":"2026-10-29T16:03:45+0530","dateModified":"2026-10-29T16:20:15+0530","inLanguage":"en-us","author":{"@type":"Person","name":"PNN","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com/user/pnnindia"},"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Marudhara Bharti English","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com/uploads/logo/logo_6ab9270c36c334-01124948.png"}},"image":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://pnndigital.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/10/PNN-2026-10-29T114743.968.jpg","contentUrl":"https://pnndigital.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/10/PNN-2026-10-29T114743.968.jpg"},"keywords":["Why","India’s","Pet","Industry","Needs","Digital","Infrastructure","for","Information","","Intelligence","and","Trade"]}</script>

And the moment the site opens, a truck is right there to greet you and show you the way in.\r\nThe language is just as Indian. Headlines mix English and Hindi the way people actually talk: “Creative OK Please,” “Idea Ka Dhamaka, Brand Ka Patakha,” “Soch Desi, Reach Videshi.” Even the labels speak the same way.

With these launches, the company’s store network has grown from 16 to 20 stores. It aims to expand this network to 30 stores by March 2028, strengthening its presence across Uttar Pradesh and Bihar.\r\nThe four showroom launches were marked by separate inauguration events featuring well-known personalities. Actress Mouni Roy attended the inauguration in Lucknow, Adah Sharma inaugurated the showroom in Bahraich, Ayesha Khan was present in Mirzapur, and actress Kajal Raghwani inaugurated the Bettiah showroom.\r\nWith a business turnover of over Rs. 3,000 crore approx. and annual growth of around 20%, the company is looking to build on its legacy while responding to changing consumer preferences. Its total retail area now exceeds one lakh square feet, with each of the four new showrooms spanning approximately 5,000–7,000 square feet. The company is also planning to open two more showrooms in Uttar Pradesh.\r\nBeyond expanding its physical retail network, Aisshpra Gems &amp;amp; Jewels is diversifying its product portfolio to reach younger consumers. Alongside its established traditional and bridal jewellery offerings, the company is focusing on lightweight, contemporary diamond jewellery through its lifestyle jewellery brand, ‘Jewel Story’.\r\n‘Jewel Story’ Targets Gen Z and Young Consumers\r\nDesigned for modern lifestyles, Jewel Story offers a range of Gold, Silver and natural diamond jewellery in 9, 14 and 18-karat gold. The collection focuses on lightweight, contemporary designs suited to everyday wear, office wear and gifting. \r\nThrough the brand, the company aims to connect with Gen Z and young working professionals who increasingly seek versatile jewellery that combines modern design with everyday comfort. The launch marks a step towards broadening Aisshpra’s portfolio beyond traditional and bridal jewellery and strengthening its presence in the lifestyle jewellery segment.\r\nBridal jewellery currently accounts for approximately 30–40% of the company’s total retail sales. By expanding its focus to lifestyle jewellery, Aisshpra aims to cater to a wider range of customer preferences and occasions.\r\nExpanding Across Uttar Pradesh and Bihar\r\nThe new showroom in Bettiah marks the company’s entry into Bihar. As part of its expansion plans, Aisshpra is also exploring opportunities in other Bihar markets, including Siwan and Gopalganj. In Uttar Pradesh, the company plans to open two additional stores in November.\r\nThe new showrooms offer a wide selection of jewellery across gold, diamond, polki, silver and other categories, bringing traditional designs and contemporary collections under one roof.\r\nCommenting on the expansion, Atul Saraf, Director, Aisshpra Gems &amp;amp; Jewels, said, “Customer trust has been our biggest strength since 1940. Opening four showrooms in a single day is an important milestone in our growth journey. Today, customers are looking beyond traditional jewellery and are increasingly choosing lightweight, contemporary designs for everyday wear. Our focus remains on delivering quality, maintaining transparency and preserving the trust that customers have placed in us over the years.”\r\nAnoop Saraf, Director, Aisshpra Gems &amp;amp; Jewels, added, “Entering Bihar with our first showroom in Bettiah is an important milestone for us. Our expansion across Uttar Pradesh and Bihar will help us reach more customers and strengthen our retail presence. Our large-format showrooms bring together traditional, bridal and lifestyle jewellery, offering customers a wider choice and a more comprehensive shopping experience.”\r\nRetail Expansion and Employment Generation\r\nAisshpra Gems &amp;amp; Jewels’ total retail footprint has crossed one lakh square feet. According to the company, its network and associated business activities support more than 4,000 direct and indirect jobs. As it enters new markets, the company aims to further strengthen its retail network, expand customer access and build on its long-standing presence in the jewellery industry.\r\nTo mark the openings, the company has also introduced special offers of up to 30% off on making charges for gold jewellery and on diamond prices, subject to applicable terms and conditions.\r\nWith its expanding retail network and the launch of Jewel Story, Aisshpra Gems &amp;amp; Jewels is positioning itself to serve both traditional jewellery buyers and a younger generation seeking contemporary designs, while pursuing its target of 30 stores by March 2028.\r\nIf you object to the content of this press release, please notify us at pr.error.rectification@gmail.com.

Built on the voices of 7,783 verified Indian consumers across metros and Tier 2 and Tier 3 cities, and deepened by one-on-one interviews, Hercules’ new outlook shows what drives their choices: authenticity over speed, performance over prestige, and sleep as the new health goal. Click to Download the Full Report Free.\r\n01 · TRUST\r\nIndians discover beauty on social media, but buy on trust\r\nYoung shoppers find skincare on social media but rarely buy because of it. 40% of Gen Z skincare buyers look to Instagram creators first for a new skin concern, yet only 8% bought their last product because they saw it there; 44% bought on brand reputation and 36% on a dermatologist’s advice (100 buyers, an early signal). In fragrance, only 2.3% choose on the brand name, while 42.7% choose by the scent itself (1,500 users). Every shopper we interviewed checked reviews from real buyers before buying.\r\n02 · AUTHENTICITY\r\nFast isn’t enough: Indians want proof their 5-minute beauty order is genuine\r\nNeed is not the problem: 80.9% of 3,000 quick-commerce shoppers need a beauty essential or grocery item urgently at least once a week. But 55.5% say genuine products matter most in a 5-minute delivery service, twice the share of those who pick speed (27.8%). Two in three (66.0%) would use such a service if it launched tomorrow, led by 25–35-year-olds, and only 4.2% would cancel if their exact shade were out of stock.\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n03 · WELLNESS\r\nSleep, not six-packs: India’s wellness goal shifts to rest\r\nBetter sleep is now the health goal urban Indians pick most for the year ahead (14.3%), ahead of building strength (12.1%) and losing weight (10.7%), according to a survey of 2,268 urban adults. Most are beginners –59.3% started their wellness journey less than a year ago -and 91.8% say an important health need is still unmet. When choosing products, safe and trusted ingredients (22.7%) edge out proven results (21.5%) and price (20.9%).\r\n04 · SKINCARE\r\nHide the logo and most Indian shoppers can’t tell skincare brands apart\r\nIn a blind test with 265 skincare shoppers, the average person named fewer than two of five popular brands from their packs alone (1.8 of 5). Only The Derma Co (51%) and Minimalist (48%) were recognised by about half, even though all five packs scored the same on appeal. Routines also break after purchase: only 37.5% of 200 daily sunscreen users re-apply as recommended, and 64.5% dislike the white cast.\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nHow we did the research\r\nWe asked 7,783 people across India who regularly buy these products through online surveys on the SuperJ app in 2026. Each number comes from one survey, and we show how many people answered it. We also spoke to shoppers one-on-one to understand the “why”. Surveys of 100 people are early signals, not final answers.

It’s a time to reflect on what kinds of cities and urban regions Pune will be in the next decade.\r\nPune (Maharashtra) [India], October 28: Time is crucial in the development of Pune. The city and the surrounding economic area have become an important hub for manufacturing, Information Technology, Engineering, Education and entrepreneurship. A new economic aspiration is driving its next steps in growth.\r\nThe Maharashtra government’s vision of making Pune the $220-billion economy by 2036 is a dream come true for the city. It’s a time to reflect on what kinds of cities and urban regions Pune will be in the next decade.\r\nThe report said the proposed roadmap has 58 priority projects in various areas including manufacturing, electric vehicles, engineering, defence, robotics, electronics, semiconductors, biotechnology and others. The plan’s target is to boost the economic growth rate of the region from around 6-6.5% to 10% and create up to 20 lakh new employment opportunities. These are still suggested targets – which will be dependent on implementation. The article was picked up from The Times of India.\r\nThe effects of industrial growth reach far beyond Pune. Economic development this large will impact where people work, where families want to reside, how they travel to work and their expectations of the communities in which they live.\r\nThe true challenge isn’t just to develop Pune’s economy, it is to make sure the physical development of the area matches the economic aspirations.\r\nEconomic Growth Will Reshape Pune’s Residential Landscape\r\nEach of the main employment hubs generates a larger market for homes.\r\nProfessionals, entrepreneurs, skilled workers and supporting industries come to businesses as the businesses grow. These populations don’t just need jobs. They require housing, schools, health care, shopping, parks and dependable transportation.\r\nThis already exists, but will be reinforced over the next ten years by Pune’s proposed growth roadmap, which will create a stronger link between jobs and housing. The extent and the distribution of the new residential demand, however, will depend on the projects that are developed, the job distribution throughout the region and the readiness of the infrastructure to accommodate new development.\r\nThis places a significant responsibility on the real estate industry – grasping the economic activity and its implications on the demand for various types of housing.\r\nTechnology professionals have different requirements than a manufacturing worker, or young family. For some households, the convenience of workplaces will be a priority, for others, access to educational facilities, open space, community facilities or public transport.\r\nIn the context of a growing economic area, an economically diverse residential ecosystem is needed, which is supported by well-designed planning and infrastructure.\r\nThe Next Development Phase Must Be Led by the Infrastructure\r\nThe proposed growth plan is very mobility-focused.\r\nThe roadmap proposes a 250km long Metro network, 11 railway projects, 13 road projects, a fleet of upto 14,000 buses and six multimodal transport hubs. Its aim is also to boost the proportion of trips made daily by public transport from the 13% currently reported to 50%. These are suggested interventions and not an account of existing infrastructure. From: The Times of India\r\nThis is important because cities aren’t just about opportunities, they’re about how easily people are able to access those opportunities.\r\nThe planning of employment centres, residential neighbourhoods and transport networks, when aligned together, allow for more practical options in terms of where to reside and how to commute. Improved public transportation, which is accessible, dependable, and well connected, can also help to decrease private car usage.\r\nInfrastructure is part of a place’s longer term setting, from a real estate point of view. However, developers and homebuyers need to separate out those projects that are in operation, from projects that are being built and proposals that haven’t yet been put into operation.\r\nAny assessment that is credible must take into account what is present now as well as what is being planned for tomorrow in any location.\r\nBeyond Jobs, the Future of Pune Relies on More\r\nThe government has projected jobs of up to 20 lakh, which is an important measure of the scope of economic ambition. The plan also aims to draw investments into new areas of business, establish capability centres all over the world and promote start-ups.\r\nHowever, jobs are not the only indicator of urban development.\r\nThe quality of life enjoyed by the workers who fill these positions will also be crucial. In addition to being a place that is appealing to talent, a region must offer environments that enable people to establish stable, satisfying lives.\r\nThis means having access to appropriate housing, education, healthcare, recreation and public spaces. It also covers the day-to-day realities of urban living – the time spent commuting, the services available in the community, and the opportunities to meet family and friends.\r\nIt is here that urban development and real estate planning meet.\r\nThe challenge should be to develop residential places that meet the demands of an evolving population, not just housing as a product. Economic development can be complemented by well planned neighbourhoods to enable people to access opportunities and support the day to day needs of life.\r\nIn What Ways Is Regional Planning Important?\r\nPune can’t be seen just in the municipal city.\r\nThe Pune Economic Region covers the areas under the Pune Municipal Corporation, Pimpri-Chinchwad Municipal Corporation and Pune Metropolitan Region Development Authority. Economic activity, jobs and housing demand frequently span these administrative lines.\r\nThis is especially significant in terms of coordination.\r\nExpansion of industries in a particular location may affect the demand for housing in the surrounding neighbourhood. A transport corridor has the potential to affect commuting patterns in more than one jurisdiction. New jobs and job centers can generate demand for education and health care, retail and public services beyond their catchment area.\r\nIndependent plans for these developments could leave the region with opportunities missed to use land, infrastructure and public investment more effectively.\r\nIntegrated regional planning provides an opportunity to think about these relationships in an integrated way. It can contribute to the integration of transport, housing, job centers, environmental considerations and key services in a wider development context.\r\nThe coming decade offers Pune a chance to further improve this coordination in the region’s growth.\r\nReal Estate Developers Play a Part in Forming This Future\r\nWith the changing economic landscape of Pune, the job of real estate developers should go beyond building one building.\r\nDevelopment decisions shape the form of neighbourhoods, the uses of open space and the ways that people experience neighbourhood space. Today’s planning quality could determine a community’s function for many years.\r\nThat requires a longer term development plan.\r\nDevelopers are responsible for taking into account how a development fits into the wider infrastructure, and the needs of future residents and the facilities needed to provide for a functioning neighbourhood. Some of the elements of this responsibility include thoughtful site planning, appropriate density, and shared spaces and long-term maintenance that are accessible.\r\nThis applies to choices of where to live, too. Growth corridors are assessed for their existing and future economic activity, infrastructure, access to services and development potential, rather than just because they “have the potential to appreciate in property value.\r\nThere is no economic objective that can ensure the success of a specific real estate investment. It can offer a bigger circle of decisions that can be made on an informed basis.\r\nAt Pharande Spaces, we have come to the realization that development that is responsible must not only consider the project in its immediate context but also the overall urban context as well. This is going to become an increasing factor as Pune continues to grow.\r\nThe Growth Must Also Be Sustainable\r\nWhile growth provides opportunities, it also generates a strain on land, water, transport and other critical resources.\r\nThe long-term management of these resources needs to be planned for a region where significant industrial and population development is anticipated. Water security, environment protection, efficient mobility and the preservation of nature assets do not come secondary, but they are essential to the urban growth’s sustainability.\r\nNot all the most successful cities are necessarily the quickest growing. The ones that bring improvement and a more functional life to their citizens through growth are these ones.\r\nFor Pune, it is about making sure that the infrastructure investment process, along with the housing development process and environmental priorities are going hand-in-hand. It also involves measuring progress by outcomes which people experience in their everyday lives and not just by economic indicators.\r\nThe Next 10 Years Will Shape the Urban Landscape of Pune\r\nThe plans to develop the Pune economic region of $220 billion by 2036 reflect the confidence in the economic potential of the region. The proposed investments and projects provide a blueprint for further building up industries, increasing jobs and connectivity.\r\nThe real challenge is implementation; the extent to which projects are actually put into practice, how well various agencies coordinate, and how adequately infrastructure and public services are provided to match growth.\r\nThe message for the real estate industry is clear. In the future, developers will have to be more mindful of the linkages between employment, housing, mobility and the planning of communities in Pune.\r\nFor home buyers, it will be more critical to assess the location as part of the whole, looking at what they need now and how good the urban ecosystem is around them.\r\nI think the one thing that will last the longest in a development is understanding the lifestyle of a city’s residents, its work population and its growth.\r\nThe $220 billion ambition of Pune is more than about the economy’s size. It is a chance to create a region where economic growth and the quality of life go hand-in-hand.\r\nThis is the benchmark for the development of Pune in the next ten years.\r\nBy Anil Pharande, Founder &amp;amp; Chairman, Pharande Spaces\r\nIf you object to the content of this press release, please notify us at pr.error.rectification@gmail.com.

Featuring a patented technology platform and combining two complementary modes of action, Context is designed to address evolving weed-management challenges and support effective weed control in wheat cultivation.\r\nIntroduced for the Rabi 2026 season, Context will target major wheat-growing markets, particularly Punjab, Haryana, Uttar Pradesh and Rajasthan, among other key wheat-producing regions. The launch underscores Parijat Industries’ commitment to delivering differentiated crop-protection solutions that combine product innovation with practical, field-level requirements.\r\nDriving Farmer Value Through Innovation\r\nCommenting on the launch, Uday Raj Anand, CEO–Domestic Business, Parijat Industries, said:“Innovation creates lasting value when it addresses real challenges faced by farmers. With Context, we are strengthening our wheat herbicide portfolio with a differentiated solution designed to tackle challenging broadleaf weeds and address evolving weed-management needs. Our strategy goes beyond product introductions; it focuses on combining innovation, effective market execution and farmer-centric engagement to help protect crop potential and improve productivity. Context reinforces our commitment to delivering relevant, reliable and innovative crop-protection solutions that create meaningful value for Indian agriculture.”\r\nAddressing the Evolving Weed Spectrum in Wheat\r\nSharing the strategic perspective behind the launch, Surender Agarwal, Head – Strategic Marketing, Parijat Industries, said: “Weed management in wheat is evolving, and our solutions must evolve with it. While the adoption of pre-emergence herbicides has helped manage Phalaris minor in many wheat-growing areas, challenging broadleaf weeds such as Chenopodium album, Rumex species, Coronopus species and Solanum nigrum continue to pose significant challenges in several fields. These weeds compete with wheat for essential resources, including moisture, nutrients and sunlight, potentially compromising crop growth and grain yield.\r\nAt Parijat, our approach to innovation begins with understanding these field-level challenges and translating them into effective, farmer-oriented solutions. Context reflects this approach by combining two active ingredients with different modes of action to support the management of challenging broadleaf weeds in wheat.”\r\nDual-Action Technology for Effective Weed Management\r\nContext combines Fluroxypyr, a synthetic auxin herbicide (HRAC Group 4), with Metribuzin, a photosystem II inhibitor (HRAC Group 5). This combination brings together two distinct herbicidal mechanisms to support broadleaf weed management in wheat.\r\nMulti-location field trials conducted at selected locations across Punjab, Haryana, Uttar Pradesh and Madhya Pradesh demonstrated promising weed-control performance when the product was applied at the recommended stage and dose.\r\nThe pre-mixed formulation eliminates the need for farmers to mix the two active ingredients separately, simplifying product preparation and helping reduce on-farm handling complexity and repeated sprays. Timely application, in accordance with approved label directions and local recommendations, remains essential for achieving optimal results.\r\nStrengthening Parijat’s Wheat Crop-Protection Portfolio\r\nContext will be available through Parijat Industries’ authorised dealer and retailer network across key wheat-growing markets. With this launch, the company aims to strengthen its presence in the wheat herbicide segment and offer farmers a differentiated solution for managing challenging broadleaf weeds as part of an integrated weed-management programme.\r\n","articleSection":"Business","datePublished":"2026-10-28T19:16:37+0530","dateModified":"2026-10-28T20:05:59+0530","inLanguage":"en-us","author":{"@type":"Person","name":"PNN","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com/user/pnnindia"},"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Marudhara Bharti English","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com/uploads/logo/logo_6ab9270c36c334-01124948.png"}},"image":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://pnndigital.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/10/PNN-2026-10-28T185510.144.jpg","contentUrl":"https://pnndigital.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/10/PNN-2026-10-28T185510.144.jpg"},"keywords":["Parijat","Industries","Launches","Context","","Dual-Action","Herbicide","for","Broadleaf","Weed","Control","Wheat"]}</script>

As companies increasingly prioritise operational efficiency and long-term growth potential, the need for well-planned industrial spaces is gaining importance. Within the National Capital Region (NCR), Faridabad’s established industrial base and access to key markets make it an important location in the evolving industrial real estate landscape.\r\nFor developers, this presents an opportunity to move beyond conventional plotting and create industrial spaces that respond to the practical requirements of businesses. Well-planned industrial developments can help enterprises make informed location decisions while supporting manufacturing activity and future expansion.\r\nConnectivity and Infrastructure Shape Industrial Potential\r\nInfrastructure development is playing an important role in strengthening Faridabad’s position within the NCR’s industrial landscape. Major road corridors, including National Highway 44 and the Delhi-Mumbai Expressway, support regional connectivity, while the existing metro network connects the city with Delhi. The proposed Faridabad-Noida-Ghaziabad (FNG) Expressway is expected to further improve connectivity across the NCR as its planned stretches become operational, potentially facilitating the movement of goods, workforce and business activity.\r\nFaridabad’s access to Indira Gandhi International Airport and its potential connectivity with Noida International Airport at Jewar add another dimension to its strategic location. The proposed greenfield expressway linking Faridabad with Jewar could strengthen access to the aviation hub and support industrial and logistics activity once completed. Together, these infrastructure developments could enhance the city’s appeal for manufacturers seeking access to regional markets and supply chains.\r\nAccording to Mr. R. C. Gupta, Managing Director, RPS Group, “Faridabad’s strategic location and connectivity to key industrial and commercial centres across the NCR give it a strong foundation for future growth. As infrastructure continues to evolve, the city has an opportunity to attract greater industrial investment. However, this growth must be supported by well-planned industrial spaces, reliable utilities and infrastructure that addresses the practical requirements of manufacturing businesses. A more organised approach to industrial development can help Faridabad build on its existing strengths and strengthen its position as an industrial destination.”\r\nGovernment initiatives aimed at strengthening industrial infrastructure and developing planned industrial areas also form an important part of this landscape. Haryana’s focus on Industrial Model Townships and proposals concerning the expansion of the Faridabad-Palwal industrial development region highlight the importance of planning for future industrial capacity. The impact of these initiatives will depend on implementation and the availability of supporting infrastructure.\r\nThe Case for Organised Industrial Development\r\nAs industrial requirements evolve, the value of industrial real estate increasingly depends on more than land availability. Businesses require suitable plot layouts, reliable power and water supply, road access, logistics facilities and adequate provisions for setting up plants and expanding operations. Industrial developments that integrate these requirements can provide a more structured environment for enterprises and support operational efficiency.\r\nFor developers, this creates a need to understand the operational realities of different industries and incorporate them into the planning process. Faridabad’s opportunity lies in building on its existing industrial strengths while supporting new investment through organised development.\r\nCombining its location advantage with planned industrial spaces and reliable infrastructure can help create an environment in which enterprises establish, operate and expand over time. As the region’s industrial landscape develops, aligning land availability with businesses’ practical requirements will be essential to supporting Faridabad’s next phase of industrial growth.","articleSection":"Business","datePublished":"2026-10-28T16:26:28+0530","dateModified":"2026-10-28T16:28:19+0530","inLanguage":"en-us","author":{"@type":"Person","name":"PNN","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com/user/pnnindia"},"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Marudhara Bharti English","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com/uploads/logo/logo_6ab9270c36c334-01124948.png"}},"image":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://pnndigital.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/10/PNN-139.jpg","contentUrl":"https://pnndigital.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/10/PNN-139.jpg"},"keywords":["Faridabad’s","Industrial","Future:","Why","Planned","Industrial","Development","Gaining","Importance"]}</script>

HITO!, Before the Bright Day and Deep Quiet Room. The selection includes films that have earned nominations and awards at prestigious international festivals, including the Golden Horse Awards, widely regarded as among the most important honours in the cinema world. \r\nThe festival&#039;s Delhi edition drew considerable media attention and brought together Taiwanese residents, Indian cinema enthusiasts, cultural representatives and members of the diplomatic community. A screening of the baseball documentary HERO! HITO! attracted a packed audience of Taiwanese and Indian viewers.\r\nThe event also generated lively conversations about Indian cinema. Dr Mumin Chen, Chief Representative of TECC India, expressed admiration for Bollywood actors and filmmakers, including Ranveer Singh, Aamir Khan and Shah Rukh Khan. His praise for Dhurandhar became one of the festival&#039;s widely reported talking points.\r\nThe momentum generated in Delhi is expected to provide a promising backdrop for the Mumbai edition, which aims to introduce Taiwanese storytelling to a wider audience, particularly in a city that serves as the heart of India&#039;s film industry.\r\nThree Films, Three Distinct Cinematic Experiences\r\nOpening the Mumbai festival will be HERO! HITO!, an inspirational sports documentary recounting Taiwan&#039;s remarkable journey from its heartbreaking baseball defeat in 2013 to its historic victory at the 2024 WBSC Premier12 championship.\r\nThrough compelling match footage and personal interviews with players, the documentary captures the determination, resilience and collective spirit that propelled an underdog team to international glory. Beyond baseball, it is a story of national pride and the refusal to surrender despite overwhelming challenges.\r\nFollowing this, audiences will experience Before the Bright Day, the acclaimed directorial debut of Shih-Han Tsao. Set against the politically turbulent backdrop of the 1996 Taiwan Strait Crisis, the film follows a teenager named Chou as he navigates adolescence, family troubles, friendship and uncertainty about his future.\r\nAs political tensions threaten the stability of everyday life, Chou struggles with academic pressures, financial difficulties at home and the possible departure of the girl he admires. The film offers a sensitive portrayal of growing up amid geopolitical uncertainty.\r\nBefore the Bright Day received nominations at the 2025 Golden Horse Awards and competed in the New Directors section of the prestigious San Sebastián International Film Festival. It was also nominated for Best Youth Film at the Asia Pacific Screen Awards, earning recognition beyond Taiwan.\r\nThe day&#039;s final screening, will feature Deep Quiet Room, an emotionally intense psychological drama directed by veteran documentarian Shen Ko-shang.\r\nThe film follows Yu-ming, a grieving husband attempting to understand the circumstances that led to his pregnant wife&#039;s death. While caring for his father-in-law, who is experiencing dementia, he gradually uncovers disturbing family secrets and confronts questions about trauma, relationships and emotional suffering.\r\nDeep Quiet Room secured seven nominations at the 2025 Golden Horse Awards and won major recognition at the Pingyao International Film Festival, including Best Film, Best Actor and an Audience Award. Its international recognition has established it as one of the notable films in the Mumbai programme.\r\nCinema as a Bridge Between India and Taiwan\r\nSpeaking about the festival&#039;s larger purpose, Dr Mumin Chen said it was among the most important annual cultural initiatives organised by TECC India.\r\nHe explained that the selection of films was intended to introduce Indian audiences to different aspects of Taiwanese society, from sporting achievements and technological advancement to family relationships and social issues.\r\nChen also expressed hope that cultural exchanges could eventually encourage greater cooperation between the Indian and Taiwanese film industries, including more joint productions and opportunities for Indian films to reach Taiwanese audiences.\r\nMs Isabel Lin, Head of the Cultural Division at TECC India, emphasised that the festival&#039;s diversity was central to its purpose. The programme seeks to present Taiwan through cinema&#039;s ability to explore personal experiences, cultural identity, history and contemporary society.\r\nThe move to Mumbai represents a particularly important step in this effort. While New Delhi has traditionally hosted the festival, expanding to India&#039;s commercial cinema capital opens opportunities to engage filmmakers, producers, distributors, students and wider audiences interested in international cinema.\r\nFor Mumbai&#039;s film enthusiasts, the October 31 screenings offer an opportunity to discover Taiwan beyond its globally recognised semiconductor industry and technological achievements.\r\nFrom the roaring celebrations of a baseball championship to the anxieties of a teenager living through political uncertainty and the haunting emotional journey of a grieving husband, the three films promise a cinematic encounter with the ambitions, vulnerabilities and resilience of Taiwanese society.\r\nThe screenings will take place at G5A Warehouse, Shakti Mills Lane, Mahalaxmi, Mumbai, on Saturday, October 31, from 11 am to 8 pm. Entry is free with prior registration, subject to availability.\r\nWith its successful Delhi chapter providing momentum, the Mumbai debut promises to take Taiwan&#039;s cinematic storytelling to a new audience and strengthen the growing cultural relationship between Taiwan and India.","articleSection":"Entertainment","datePublished":"2026-10-27T18:49:00+0530","dateModified":"2026-10-27T18:49:35+0530","inLanguage":"en-us","author":{"@type":"Person","name":"Correspondent Desk","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com/user/marudharabharti"},"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Marudhara Bharti English","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com/uploads/logo/logo_6ab9270c36c334-01124948.png"}},"image":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgwfi-Ix4TbXrueoFEScGJAG3tqXAWuHf9ZlTcJ01-6jMTe6VULlAabkPDZfyhB20dPhDx-ezUWUQWAw2m2YBzcaTFrphXQEQzCBRm1QHF9-gm63IIF_7oedgbghS03FSlEB4D_ZRSspHzAB9XeFeU8yiVrv94_ayIU4ir1HrOuOJIgYpHBRMdDOeEuoFQl/w1600/image.jpeg","contentUrl":"https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgwfi-Ix4TbXrueoFEScGJAG3tqXAWuHf9ZlTcJ01-6jMTe6VULlAabkPDZfyhB20dPhDx-ezUWUQWAw2m2YBzcaTFrphXQEQzCBRm1QHF9-gm63IIF_7oedgbghS03FSlEB4D_ZRSspHzAB9XeFeU8yiVrv94_ayIU4ir1HrOuOJIgYpHBRMdDOeEuoFQl/w1600/image.jpeg"},"keywords":["Taiwan","Film","Festival","Heads","Mumbai","After","Successful","Delhi","Run"]}</script>

But a new LocalCircles study shows that delivery in minutes alone is no longer what wins their order. Value is. 71% of quick commerce users say they will choose a platform for festive shopping based on the best prices or overall value, 65% on product quality and 43% on low or no additional charges. Fast delivery, the very promise the category was built on, is cited by just 22%.\r\nThe study, which received over 204,000 responses from quick commerce users across 130 districts along with 11,275 platform ratings, also finds that 6 in 10 users say delivery, handling, small-cart or other fees often push their final bill above what they expected, and that quick commerce remains largely a ₹200–₹999-per-order habit. In the ratings, Amazon Now and Zepto share the top overall score, led by value and transparency of charges, while Blinkit leads on speed and BigBasket on product exclusivity.\r\nFestive spending is moving closer to Diwali\r\nThe findings come at a time when festive shopping is both large and late. A recent LocalCircles study projects that urban households will spend about ₹1.97 lakh crore on festive purchases this season. Even after a moderation from last year’s GST-boosted high, that is about ₹12,000 crore more than in 2024. 57% of urban households plan festive purchases, at an average of nearly ₹20,000 each, led by clothing, footwear and accessories (72%), home appliances and furniture (45%), travel (45%) and gourmet foods and gifting (39%). With 83% planning to dip into savings, households are weighing every rupee, which puts value at the centre of festive choices.\r\nLocalCircles has also observed a clear shift in timing this year. Amid economic uncertainty, many households are holding back purchases until closer to the festival. That bodes well for quick commerce. For a family that needs sweets, gifts, puja items, diyas or décor in the final days before Diwali, an app that delivers to the doorstep is an easy alternative to crowded markets, packed parking lots and long billing queues.\r\nA category in overdrive\r\nQuick commerce enters the final stretch of the season at record scale. In July–September 2026, Blinkit’s net order value rose 79% year-on-year to ₹20,940 crore, and Swiggy Instamart’s gross order value rose 31% to ₹9,230 crore from 13 crore orders. Zepto’s revenue more than doubled to ₹22,624 crore in the year ended March 2026, on over 64 crore orders. The newer entrants are scaling even faster: Amazon Now has crossed US$1 billion in annualised gross sales and doubled its reach to over 120 cities in two weeks, while Flipkart Minutes has grown fourfold in a year to about 1,200 micro-fulfilment centres across 150+ cities.\r\nThe festive sales have added momentum. Amazon reported its biggest-ever opening for the Great Indian Festival, with products ordered up 100% year-on-year, and said that in the 120+ cities where Amazon Now is operational, it delivered products in minutes. Flipkart Minutes order volumes rose 3.5 times over a normal day at the start of the Big Billion Days, and by the close of the sale Flipkart’s orders were reported to be up about 20–22% year-on-year.\r\nThe networks behind these numbers are expanding just as quickly. Eternal added 308 Blinkit dark stores in July–September, taking the network to 2,751, and expects to cross 3,500 by March 2027. Swiggy Instamart runs 1,240 dark stores across 133 cities, Zepto operated 1,139 dark stores as of March 2026, BigBasket has 497 dark stores in the top 10 cities, and JioMart delivers groceries in under 30 minutes across 5,500 PIN codes. Growth is spreading well beyond the metros: Flipkart says its Minutes customer base in smaller cities such as Ambala, Bhagalpur, Kanpur and Siliguri has grown nearly 25 times year-on-year, and Amazon Now is on track to reach more than 300 cities by the end of the year. The festive rush is creating jobs too, with TeamLease Services expecting festive temporary hiring to rise 15–20% over last year.\r\nValue and quality beat speed\r\nAsked which factors (up to three) will matter most when choosing a platform for festive shopping, 71% of users picked best prices or overall value and 65% product quality. 46% cited availability of products when needed, 43% low or no additional charges, 38% offers and discounts, 31% a wide range of festive products and 28% reliable delivery. Fast delivery came last at 22%, while 3% could not say.\r\nThe festive basket explains why. It is full of gifts, sweets, puja items, décor, beauty products and electronics accessories, where getting the right product at a fair price matters far more than saving a few minutes. Product quality alone is 19 percentage points ahead of the next factor, product availability.\r\nEveryday buying follows a similar pattern. For regular purchases, 75% rank product quality among their top three factors and 72% product prices, followed by offers and discounts (54%), getting most or all items in one order (52%), reliable delivery (43%), no hidden charges (41%), ease of using the app (40%) and cashback (21%). Notably, offers and discounts fall from 54% for everyday purchases to 38% for festive shopping. Users appear to treat festive deals as a given across apps and focus instead on what they finally pay and what they get.\r\nThis fits with how the industry itself has moved. Earlier this year, after meetings with the Union Labour Minister on delivery-worker safety, Blinkit dropped its “10 minutes” delivery claim, and Zepto reportedly followed. With delivery in minutes now the norm across platforms, speed has become an expectation rather than a reason to choose one app over another.\r\nExtra fees remain the biggest irritant\r\nThe study asked how often delivery, handling, small-cart or other fees make the final amount higher than expected. 42% said very often and 18% often, taking the total to 60%. 12% said sometimes, 14% rarely and 12% never, while 2% could not say. In other words, only 26% of users say extra charges rarely or never push their bill up.\r\nFee structures vary widely across apps and change often. Common charges include delivery fees, handling fees, small-cart fees on orders below a minimum value, late-night and surge fees during peak hours or bad weather, and platform fees, and the bar for free delivery has risen, with minimum orders of around ₹199 now common on major platforms. Platforms that avoid handling, convenience, surge or rain fees appear to build a stronger association of trust with consumers, which also shows up in the ratings.\r\nRegulators are watching. Drip pricing, where charges appear only at checkout, and basket sneaking are among the 13 dark patterns listed in the Guidelines for Prevention and Regulation of Dark Patterns, 2023, and the CCPA has so far imposed penalties of about ₹1.1 crore on 47 e-commerce platforms. The Legal Metrology Department and FSSAI have also committed to enforcing display of the Best Before Date on quick commerce apps.\r\nStill a ₹200–₹999 habit\r\nDespite the festive rush, quick commerce remains a small-ticket habit. 69% of users typically place orders worth ₹200–₹999: 20% spend ₹200–₹399, 27% ₹400–₹599 and 22% ₹600–₹999. 7% spend under ₹200 per order, while only 16% spend ₹1,000 or more (9% at ₹1,000–₹1,499 and 7% at ₹1,500 or more), and 10% could not say.\r\nThis is in line with company data: Blinkit reported a net average order value of ₹518 in April–June 2026, Amazon Now reports about ₹575 and Swiggy Instamart reported ₹708 in July–September. At these order sizes, even a small handling or small-cart fee is a noticeable share of the bill, and the 27% of users who spend under ₹400 per order are the most exposed. The share spending ₹1,000 or more is expected to grow as platforms add electronics, beauty and gifting products.\r\nWhere users will shop\r\nUsers spread their festive orders across several apps. For last-minute festive shopping and essentials, Amazon Now is the most preferred platform at 22%, followed by Blinkit at 19%, Zepto at 14% and BigBasket at 12%. Swiggy Instamart was chosen by 9%, Flipkart Minutes by 8% and JioMart Quick by 4%, while 12% could not say. With four platforms at 12% or more, no single app dominates festive buying, and many users are likely to decide on prices, fees and availability at the moment of ordering.\r\nFor everyday purchases, Blinkit is the most used platform at 31%, backed by the largest dark store network. Amazon Now, despite being a late entrant, is catching up fast at 25%, while BigBasket is at 12% and Flipkart Minutes and Zepto at 11% each. Swiggy Instamart was chosen by 3% and JioMart Quick by 1%, while 6% could not say. The gap between everyday use and festive preference suggests that users may switch platforms for festive purchases based on value, range and fees.\r\nHow users rate the platforms\r\nIn the ratings exercise, users rated seven quick commerce platforms out of 5 on seven parameters: selection, quality, value, customer service, transparency of charges, product exclusivity and speed. The overall scores and the scores on each parameter are shown below.\r\nLeaders on each parameter:\r\n\r\nSelection: Blinkit and BigBasket lead at 4.5, followed by Amazon Now and Zepto at 4.\r\nQuality: Amazon Now, Flipkart Minutes and BigBasket lead at 4.\r\nValue: Amazon Now, Zepto and JioMart Quick lead at 4.\r\nCustomer service: Amazon Now, Zepto and BigBasket lead at 3.5.\r\nTransparency of charges: Amazon Now and Zepto lead at 4.5, followed by JioMart Quick at 4.\r\nProduct exclusivity: BigBasket leads at 4.5, followed by Amazon Now at 4.\r\nSpeed: Blinkit leads with a full 5, followed by Zepto at 4.5 and Flipkart Minutes at 4. Each platform also showed distinct strengths:\r\nZepto (27.5/35): shares the top overall score, with 4.5 on transparency of charges and speed, and 4 on selection and value.\r\nAmazon Now (27.5/35): shares the top overall score, with 4.5 on transparency of charges and 4 on selection, quality, value and product exclusivity.\r\nBigBasket (26/35): leads on product exclusivity (4.5) and shares the top selection score (4.5), with 4 on quality.\r\nBlinkit (23.5/35): leads on speed with a full 5 and shares the top selection score (4.5).\r\nFlipkart Minutes (23.5/35): scores 4 on both quality and speed.\r\nSwiggy Instamart (22/35): scores a steady 3.5 on selection, quality, product exclusivity and speed.\r\nJioMart Quick (19.5/35): scores 4 on both value and transparency of charges.\r\n\r\nThe ratings echo the survey. Platforms that score well on value, including cashbacks and offers, and on transparency of charges rank highest overall, reinforcing that users care more about a fair final bill than about saving a few minutes. Customer service is the one area where all platforms have room to improve: no platform scores above 3.5, and four score 3 or below.\r\n“Quick commerce has become the festive shopper’s last-minute lifeline, especially this year, when many urban households are holding back purchases until closer to Diwali,” said Sachin Taparia, Founder, LocalCircles. “But the data is clear that speed is no longer the deciding factor. Consumers want the best value, reliable quality and a final bill that matches the price they first saw. Platforms that show all charges upfront and keep them low will win the last leg of festive orders.”\r\nWhat platforms, the Government and users can do\r\nBased on the findings, platforms can take five steps to win user trust this festive season:\r\n\r\nShow the final price, including delivery, handling, small-cart and platform fees, on the product page and not only at checkout.\r\nKeep fees low and simple during the festive season, when order frequency and basket sizes rise.\r\nImprove product range and availability so that users can find what they need when they need it.\r\nDisplay the Best Before Date and complete product information for every listing, especially for perishables, sweets and packaged food.\r\nStrengthen quality checks for festive products and make refunds and replacements quick and simple when products do not meet expectations.\r\n\r\nFor the Government, the findings support closer monitoring of quick commerce apps through the festive season, particularly for dark patterns such as drip pricing, bait and switch, and forced action. Users, too, can protect themselves this festive season:\r\n\r\nCheck the final amount at checkout before paying.\r\nRemove items or memberships added to the cart without their consent.\r\nCompare the total bill, rather than the product price, across apps.\r\nReport dark patterns to LocalCircles or the National Consumer Helpline.\r\n\r\nAs festive sales enter their last leg and households hold back purchases until closer to Diwali, quick commerce platforms are competing for a larger share of festive spend than ever before. The LocalCircles findings, drawn from a large consumer base, show that the winners will be those that offer the best value, consistent quality and a final bill that matches the price first shown, not just the fastest delivery.\r\nStudy Demographics &amp;amp; Methodology\r\nThe survey received over 204,000 responses from users of quick commerce services across 130 districts of India. 63% of respondents were men and 37% women, while 45% were from tier 1, 31% from tier 2 and 24% from tier 3 and 4 districts. The ratings exercise received 11,275 ratings from users across 100 districts, with at least 1,000  ratings for each of the seven platforms; 37% of participants rated more than one platform. All participants were validated citizens registered with LocalCircles, and only survey participants were invited to the ratings exercise.\r\nThe survey was conducted using the proprietary LocalCircles stratified sampling methodology, with minimum participation targets of 30% for each gender and 15% for each of three location groups (tier 1, tier 2, and tier 3 and 4 districts). All polls were run until they reached steady state and have a margin of error under 5% at a confidence level of over 95%. The ratings were collected over four weeks on the LocalCircles rating engine, based on users’ experience in the last 12 months, and have a margin of error under 10% at a confidence level of over 90%.\r\nAbout LocalCircles\r\nLocalCircles, India’s leading community social media platform, enables citizens and small businesses to escalate issues for policy and enforcement interventions and enables the Government to make policies that are citizen and small business centric. LocalCircles is also India’s #1 pollster on issues of governance, public and consumer interest.

By bringing together specialised spine surgeons, advanced surgical technology, comprehensive hospital infrastructure and philanthropic support, the initiative sought to address not just the medical challenges faced by the young patients, but also the profound emotional and social burden that severe spinal deformities place on children and their families.\r\nFor a child living with a progressive spinal deformity, the consequences extend far beyond the physical curvature of the spine. Difficulties with posture, mobility and everyday activities can affect confidence, social participation and the freedom to experience childhood without fear or discomfort. For families with limited financial resources, the prospect of complex corrective surgery can be overwhelming, often forcing them to confront the painful reality of choosing between a child’s medical needs and the family’s financial security. The initiative sought to change that reality by bringing advanced surgical care within their reach.\r\nBridging the Gap Between Advanced Healthcare and Accessibility\r\nSpinal deformities such as scoliosis and kyphosis can progress significantly if left untreated, sometimes resulting in severe deformity, functional limitations and other long-term complications. Early identification and appropriate specialist intervention are essential, particularly in children and adolescents whose spines are still developing. However, access to specialised paediatric spine care remains uneven, especially for families living in rural and semi-urban areas and those unable to afford treatment at advanced tertiary care centres.\r\nComplex spinal correction requires a multidisciplinary approach, highly skilled surgeons, specialised operating theatres, advanced monitoring technology and appropriate postoperative care. The costs associated with these requirements can place treatment beyond the reach of economically disadvantaged families.\r\nRecognising this critical gap, UMC Hospitals, Navi Mumbai, partnered with USER Foundation and UniHealth Foundation to bring together the clinical capabilities of a specialised spine surgery team and the financial support necessary to ensure that the children could undergo treatment without imposing a financial burden on their families. The initiative represents a meaningful step towards making specialised surgical care more equitable, while reinforcing the role that healthcare institutions and charitable organisations can play in addressing unmet medical needs.\r\nAt the heart of the initiative was UMC Hospitals, Navi Mumbai, whose hospital infrastructure and clinical capabilities provided the setting for these complex surgical interventions. Located in Nerul, Navi Mumbai, UMC Hospitals is a 50-bed multispecialty hospital equipped with two modular operation theatres, supporting the delivery of specialised surgical services in a controlled and well-equipped clinical environment.\r\nThe hospital’s operating theatre infrastructure, perioperative facilities and coordinated clinical teams supported the complex requirements of corrective paediatric spine surgery. Procedures of this nature demand meticulous planning, precision at every stage of the operation and continuous attention to patient safety, particularly when correcting significant spinal deformities in young patients.\r\nFor the two surgeries, the team employed advanced surgical technologies, including ultrasonic surgical instruments, intraoperative neuromonitoring and precision navigation systems. These technologies played an important role in supporting surgical accuracy and enabling continuous monitoring of critical neural structures during the procedures. The specialised technology and associated surgical equipment were funded entirely by USER Foundation, demonstrating how philanthropic intervention can help bridge the gap between the availability of advanced medical technology and patients’ ability to access it.\r\nThe initiative also underscored the importance of integrating technology with clinical judgement, surgical experience and comprehensive postoperative care. Advanced infrastructure creates the conditions for complex treatment, but its true value is realised when it is combined with the expertise of the medical team and a commitment to achieving the best possible outcomes for every patient.\r\nTwo Complex Cases, One Shared Mission\r\nThe two-day surgical initiative focused on two young patients with significant spinal deformities who required specialised corrective intervention.\r\nThe first patient was a 17-year-old boy with a neglected scoliotic deformity, while the second was a 12-year-old girl suffering from progressive kyphotic deformity following tuberculosis. Both cases presented complex clinical challenges and required careful evaluation, surgical planning and specialised expertise.\r\nThe surgical team brought together the experience of the USER Foundation’s spine surgery specialists, with two additional expert surgeons travelling from Hyderabad and Delhi specifically to participate in the initiative. This collaboration brought together complementary clinical expertise and reinforced the importance of multidisciplinary teamwork in managing complex spinal conditions.\r\nThe procedures were performed using advanced surgical techniques and technology, with particular emphasis on precision, neural safety and the specialised needs of paediatric patients. Following surgery, both children received dedicated postoperative care and medical supervision to support their recovery.\r\nFor the families, the initiative meant more than access to an operation. It represented relief from the immediate financial burden of complex treatment and the opportunity to look towards the future with renewed hope. While recovery from major spinal surgery requires continued monitoring, rehabilitation and follow-up, timely specialist intervention can be an important step towards improving function, posture and quality of life.\r\nAll expenses associated with the surgeries, hospital stays and comprehensive medical care under the initiative were covered, ensuring that the families did not have to bear the financial cost of the treatment.\r\nA Shared Commitment to Compassionate and Equitable Healthcare\r\nThe initiative reflects the complementary roles played by the three organisations. UMC Hospitals, Navi Mumbai, provided the hospital environment and clinical infrastructure required to undertake complex surgical procedures. USER Foundation brought specialised spine surgery expertise and funded the advanced surgical technology required for the interventions. UniHealth Foundation supported the charitable healthcare initiative, helping ensure that financial barriers did not prevent the children from receiving the treatment they needed.\r\nThe collaboration demonstrates how healthcare institutions and philanthropic organisations can work together to address gaps in access to specialised medical care. By combining institutional capabilities, specialist expertise and financial support, such initiatives can help extend the reach of advanced healthcare to patients who might otherwise remain underserved.\r\nFor the families involved, the significance of the initiative is deeply personal. Behind every complex diagnosis is a child with aspirations, relationships and the promise of a future that should not be limited by an untreated medical condition. The opportunity to access specialised treatment without the burden of prohibitive costs can make an enduring difference to a family’s experience of illness and recovery.\r\nLooking ahead, the shared commitment of UMC Hospitals, USER Foundation and UniHealth Foundation remains centred on advancing accessible, patient-focused healthcare and supporting those who need specialised treatment but lack the means to obtain it independently.\r\nUltimately, the success of healthcare is measured not only by the sophistication of its technology or the complexity of the procedures it can perform, but also by its ability to reach people who need it most. Through this initiative, UMC Hospitals, Navi Mumbai, and its foundation partners have demonstrated how clinical excellence, collaborative action and compassion can come together to give children and their families a renewed sense of hope.\r\nCommenting on the initiative, Dr. Akshay Parmar, Managing Director of UMC Hospitals, said: “As healthcare providers, we have a responsibility that extends beyond the delivery of medical services. We must continually work towards ensuring that the benefits of medical progress reach those who need them the most. For a family facing a complex spinal condition in a child, the financial burden can be as daunting as the medical challenge itself. No child should have to lose the opportunity for timely treatment simply because specialised healthcare is unaffordable.\r\nAt UMC Hospitals, Navi Mumbai, we believe that advanced infrastructure and clinical excellence acquire their true meaning when they are used to make a tangible difference in people’s lives. This initiative brought together our hospital’s capabilities, the expertise of the surgical team and the philanthropic commitment of USER Foundation and UniHealth Foundation to help two children access highly specialised treatment without financial hardship for their families.\r\nWe are proud to have been part of this collective effort. It also reinforces our belief that sustainable progress in healthcare requires collaboration between hospitals, medical professionals and organisations committed to social impact. Our endeavour must always be to make quality healthcare more accessible, while ensuring that compassion remains at the centre of every clinical decision.” \r\nSharing his perspective on the initiative, Dr. Rohan Gala, Lead Spine and Scoliosis Surgeon and Director of USER Foundation, said: “Scoliosis and severe kyphotic deformities are not merely conditions that affect the spine. When they progress untreated, they can influence a child’s physical development, confidence, everyday experiences and outlook towards life. For children from economically disadvantaged families, the challenge is often compounded by the fact that the treatment they need is highly specialised and expensive. Too often, financial limitations become a barrier between a child and the care that could make a meaningful difference.\r\nThrough USER Foundation, our mission is to make advanced spine surgery accessible to patients who would otherwise struggle to obtain it. These two cases reflect why this mission matters. Treating complex paediatric spinal deformities requires a dedicated team, meticulous surgical planning, specialised technology and an unwavering commitment to patient safety. The participation of our fellow surgeons from Hyderabad and Delhi, together with the facilities at UMC Hospitals, Navi Mumbai, made this collaborative initiative possible.\r\nWe are grateful to UMC Hospitals and UniHealth Foundation for joining us in this endeavour. For us, the significance of this initiative lies not simply in the surgeries performed, but in the opportunity to give these children and their families renewed hope. Every child deserves access to appropriate medical care, irrespective of their financial circumstances. That is the principle that drives our work, and we hope to extend this effort to many more children in need.”\r\nAbout Unihealth Hospitals Limited\r\nFounded in Mumbai in 2010, Unihealth Hospitals Limited is an integrated healthcare platform focused on delivering affordable, accessible, and high-quality healthcare services across India and East Africa.

Customers can explore popular collections such as Begin Walk, Rapid Breeze, Eco and Cushers, alongside the Street Collection within lifestyle sneakers. The assortment caters to diverse everyday needs, bringing together versatility, contemporary styling and the brand’s comfort-first product philosophy.\r\nSpeaking about the launch, Taran Chhabra, Founder &amp;amp; CEO, Neeman’s, said, “Reaching our 50th store marks a defining moment in the journey of building Neeman’s into a brand that stands for everyday comfort. Having this store in Hyderabad makes the milestone especially meaningful, as it brings us back to the city where the idea for Neeman’s first took shape. Our stores give customers the opportunity to experience our products firsthand and discover the thought that goes into every pair. As we continue to expand, our focus remains on creating retail experiences that reflect our commitment to comfort, thoughtful design and the trust we build with our customers.”\r\nAmar Preet Singh, Founder &amp;amp; COO, Neeman’s, added, “The journey to our 50th store has been about understanding our customers better and creating a retail experience that consistently reflects our product promise. Every store gives customers a chance to explore our collections in person, find the right fit and experience the comfort that defines Neeman’s. The Hyderabad store is particularly special because of our connection to the city, and this milestone reinforces our commitment to making our products accessible to more customers across India.”\r\nSince opening its first retail store in April 2023, Neeman’s has focused on building the operational foundation required to scale its offline business, including store operations, teams and processes that support a consistent customer experience. After reaching 20 stores, the brand activated its franchise-led expansion strategy, adding another 10 stores within six months. Its current retail network spans key markets across India, with Western and Southern India together accounting for nearly 70% of its stores.\r\nWith 50 exclusive retail stores, Neeman’s is looking to accelerate its offline expansion while strengthening its omnichannel strategy. The planned expansion to 500 stores over the next three years will allow the brand to extend its reach across India, complementing its established digital presence with physical retail experiences that bring customers closer to its products and brand philosophy.\r\nThe Panjagutta opening marks both a return to Neeman’s roots and a step towards its next phase of growth, as the brand continues to scale its retail presence and make comfort-led footwear accessible to a wider audience.\r\nStore Details\r\nLocation: Panjagutta, Hyderabad, TelanganaStore Area: 2,437 sq. ft.Milestone: Neeman’s 50th exclusive retail store\r\nAbout Neeman’s\r\nFounded in 2018 by Taran Chhabra and Amar Preet Singh, Neeman’s is one of India’s leading homegrown, comfort-first footwear and lifestyle brands.

The firm advises clients on US, Canadian and other immigration laws, covering matters related to overseas education, employment, business and migration.\r\nAs Gujarat’s largest city and a major centre for business, education and professional opportunities, Ahmedabad has a sizeable audience exploring options abroad. The firm’s presence will enable people from the city and surrounding areas to seek consultations on immigration-related matters closer to home.\r\nAdv. Vipul Joshi brings nearly 23 years of experience in immigration practice. After working with Sudhir Shah Associates for almost two decades, he established his independent practice, Vipul Joshi &amp;amp; Associates, in April 2024. The firm opened its office in Surat around three months ago.\r\nThe Ahmedabad consultation will help the firm serve clients across central and north Gujarat. Its services include advice on visa applications, US immigrant visas and green card-related documentation, citizenship and naturalisation, immigration compliance and investment migration options. Consultations are tailored to clients’ individual circumstances and the requirements of their cases.\r\nSpeaking about the expansion, Adv. Vipul Joshi, Proprietor of Vipul Joshi &amp;amp; Associates, said, “Ahmedabad is an important business and education hub, and many people here are exploring options to study, work, establish businesses or settle abroad.

By extending our services to Ahmedabad, we aim to make experienced immigration guidance more accessible to people here.”\r\nAnju Shah, Deputy Mayor of Ahmedabad, was the chief guest on the occasion. \r\nVipul Joshi &amp;amp; Associates currently has consultation in Mumbai and Surat, with Ahmedabad adding to its presence in Gujarat.

Working across these formats has given her experience with different approaches to pacing, structure, and audience engagement, while allowing her to contribute to productions with distinct creative and technical demands.\r\nWith professional experience spanning Dubai, Mumbai, and Los Angeles, Iyer has developed a portfolio that includes additional editing on the feature Where the Wind Blows, writing, directing, and editing the psychological thriller Radhika, and editing the short film Vijaya Dashmi. Her credits also include assistant editing on the documentary The Best Summer, commercial projects for brands including Meta and Spotify, video editing for Hollywood Insider, and post-production work on the second season of Dark Matter.\r\nThese projects represent different sides of editorial work. Narrative filmmaking requires attention to character, performance, and dramatic structure. Documentary production calls for sensitivity to real events and the relationships between recorded moments. Commercials and digital programming introduce different expectations around timing, clarity, and audience attention, while studio television demands coordination within an established post-production pipeline.\r\nFor Iyer, the ability to move between these environments is an important part of her professional practice.\r\n“Every project has its own rhythm,” Iyer says. “The challenge is understanding what the story needs instead of imposing the same style or pace on everything you edit.”\r\nThat approach connects the different formats in her portfolio: rather than treating versatility as a single visual style, she approaches each project according to its individual storytelling objectives.\r\nNarrative Editing: From Psychological Thrillers to Features\r\nIyer’s narrative work demonstrates her interest in how editorial decisions shape suspense, emotional clarity, and the audience’s understanding of a story.\r\nAs the additional editor on Where the Wind Blows, she contributed to a feature that has been released on Apple TV and Amazon Prime Video. Feature filmmaking requires an editor to consider how individual scenes function within a larger dramatic structure, balancing the momentum of the story with the time audiences need to absorb character, atmosphere, and narrative information.\r\nHer work on Radhika, a psychological thriller she wrote, directed, and edited, brought these creative responsibilities together. The film received recognition at the Tagore International Film Festival and the Sun of the East International Film Festival. Having worked across the screenplay, direction, and edit, Iyer was involved in shaping the story from its conception through its final presentation.\r\nPsychological thrillers rely heavily on the management of information. The timing of a reaction, the length of a pause, or the decision to withhold a detail can change how an audience interprets a scene. Editing becomes a way to build uncertainty while ensuring that the story remains coherent.\r\nIyer’s work on Vijaya Dashmi offered another opportunity to shape a short-form narrative. The film was recognized among the Top 100 at the Dadasaheb Phalke International Film Festival. With limited screen time, short films require careful decisions about which moments to retain, how quickly to establish emotional stakes, and how to preserve the story’s central idea without unnecessary distractions.\r\nTogether, these projects illustrate her experience with narrative storytelling at different lengths. A feature must sustain its structure across an extended runtime, while a short film must make each sequence count. Both require an understanding of how individual editorial choices contribute to the audience’s overall experience.\r\nDocumentary Work: Finding Structure in Real Events\r\nDocumentary editing presents a different set of challenges. Rather than working exclusively with scripted scenes and planned coverage, editors must help shape a narrative from material gathered in real-world circumstances. The process involves organizing footage, identifying meaningful connections, and supporting the story without losing sight of the people and events being documented.\r\nIyer worked as an assistant editor on The Best Summer, directed by Tamra Davis and edited by Jessica Hernandez. The documentary premiered in the Midnight section at the 2026 Sundance\r\nFilm Festival. The project placed her within a nonfiction production environment where organization, collaboration, and careful management of footage are important to the editorial process.\r\nShe has also worked on several additional documentaries scheduled for release in 2027, extending her experience across nonfiction projects.\r\nDocumentary projects can require an editor to recognize the significance of a moment only after considering it alongside other material. A scene that initially appears incidental may reveal a larger pattern, while an emotionally powerful sequence may need to be placed in context to serve the film as a whole.\r\n“Documentary editing asks you to pay attention to what is already there,” Iyer says. “You are looking for connections, patterns, and moments that reveal something meaningful, while making sure the edit serves the story rather than distracting from it.”\r\nHer documentary experience complements her narrative work by bringing a different relationship to structure and storytelling. In both cases, the goal is to find a coherent and engaging progression, but the material determines how that progression takes shape.\r\nCommercial Editing: Making Every Second Count\r\nIyer’s commercial portfolio includes projects for globally recognized brands such as Meta and Spotify, where she has worked as an assistant editor. These projects introduce a different set of priorities from feature filmmaking, including defined runtimes, brand guidelines, campaign objectives, and specific delivery requirements.\r\nCommercial editing often requires an idea to register quickly. The editor must help establish tone, identify the most effective material, and create a progression that communicates the intended message within a limited amount of time. The challenge is to balance efficiency with visual appeal while ensuring that the final piece remains coherent.\r\nWorking on branded content also involves adapting to different creative expectations. Each campaign has its own identity, and the editorial approach must support that identity while responding to feedback and production requirements. Assistant editing contributes to this process through the organization and preparation of material, version management, and support for the broader editorial workflow.\r\n“Editing is always about choices,” Iyer. “The format changes how you make those choices, but you still have to understand what matters most and make sure every moment has a purpose.”\r\nHer experience in commercial production adds another dimension to her work across narrative and nonfiction formats, where pacing and structure may serve different objectives but still depend on deliberate editorial decisions.\r\nDigital Storytelling for YouTube Audiences\r\nIyer’s work as a video editor for Hollywood Insider extended her experience into digital programming focused on film, entertainment, and cultural subjects. She edited multiple videos for the publication, working with material intended for online audiences rather than the viewing environments associated with feature films or television.\r\nThis requires a different balance of pacing and explanation from narrative filmmaking. Rather than building suspense around a fictional event, commentary-driven content may need to guide viewers through an argument or subject while keeping the presentation accessible and engaging.\r\nIyer’s experience in this area demonstrates how editorial skills can transfer across platforms without making the formats interchangeable. The same attention to continuity, structure, and rhythm remains relevant, but the audience’s relationship with the material influences how those skills are applied.\r\n“Different platforms create different relationships with the audience,” Iyer says. “You have to understand how people are watching and what will help them stay connected to the story or idea.”\r\nHer digital work sits alongside her film, documentary, and commercial credits as part of a broader editorial portfolio that encompasses both entertainment and informational content.\r\nThe Technical Craft Behind the Creative Decisions\r\nAlongside her project-based editing experience, Iyer has worked in the post-production department on the second season of Dark Matter, the science-fiction series produced for Apple TV by Sony Pictures Television.\r\nStudio television operates within a coordinated production pipeline, with multiple departments managing media, versions, schedules, and deliverables. Post-production work requires technical precision, clear communication, and an understanding of how individual tasks fit into the larger process.\r\nThis work requires operational demands of a large-scale television production. It also highlights a practical dimension of editorial work: creative decisions depend on workflows that allow the right material to be available, organized, and ready for review.\r\nFor Iyer, experience across independent films, documentaries, branded content, digital programming, and studio television has meant navigating different production environments as well as different storytelling goals.\r\nA Portfolio Defined by Editorial Versatility\r\nOne of Iyer’s key professional achievements has been building an editorial portfolio that spans short films, features, documentaries, commercials, and digital content, alongside experience in studio television post-production. Her work across these areas reflects an ability to contribute to productions with different creative priorities, workflows, and audiences.\r\nHer narrative credits include projects recognized at film festivals, while her documentary work includes a production that premiered at Sundance. Commercial projects for Meta and Spotify, digital editing for Hollywood Insider, and post-production work on Dark Matter further demonstrate the range of environments in which she has worked.\r\nIyer is also looking to expand her work in commercials, music videos, and podcasts. With several more documentaries scheduled for release in 2027, her upcoming work will add to the range of projects represented in her portfolio.\r\nHer professional achievements are best understood through the projects themselves: the different formats she has worked in, the responsibilities she has undertaken, and the recognition associated with selected films. Rather than relying on one genre or platform, her experience reflects an editorial practice shaped by adapting to the demands of each production.\r\nUltimately, versatility in editing is not simply a matter of working across multiple formats. It involves understanding what each project requires and making decisions that support its particular story, purpose, and audience. For Iyer, that remains the central question behind every edit: what is the most effective way to bring this particular story into focus?\r\n ","articleSection":"Business","datePublished":"2026-10-27T15:42:02+0530","dateModified":"2026-10-27T18:51:23+0530","inLanguage":"en-us","author":{"@type":"Person","name":"Correspondent Desk","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com/user/marudharabharti"},"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Marudhara Bharti English","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com/uploads/logo/logo_6ab9270c36c334-01124948.png"}},"image":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgBWSqG48brF7q5g71gw43G7afqaglY5IBmkJB7LWYbwmbDKGjVkrJrltxv_P0AkArxAs7sbdwXaRLU5AHdQ4JoXbYVuBmWPeibriPtj9mR1XFBae4FLrQ09YVqrnOeuBYxQr7AcoahljGmjGP8kB-2DOWl6dbap6r3M1lPI_vjG3HUdQIM9Lu_MbFUuWOe/w1600/image.jpeg","contentUrl":"https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgBWSqG48brF7q5g71gw43G7afqaglY5IBmkJB7LWYbwmbDKGjVkrJrltxv_P0AkArxAs7sbdwXaRLU5AHdQ4JoXbYVuBmWPeibriPtj9mR1XFBae4FLrQ09YVqrnOeuBYxQr7AcoahljGmjGP8kB-2DOWl6dbap6r3M1lPI_vjG3HUdQIM9Lu_MbFUuWOe/w1600/image.jpeg"},"keywords":["From","Features","Digital","Content:","How","Anushri","Srinivasan","Iyer","Adapts","Every","Kind","Edit"]}</script>

Following Kaashvi Hiranandani’s emotional appearance on Weekend Ka Vaar, one message stood out: the people who know Scout beyond the cameras continue to believe in him and want to see him succeed.\r\nKaashvi’s entry into the house brought an emotional moment for Scout as she spoke candidly about his interactions with fellow contestant Love Gill. While expressing concerns about how certain moments were being perceived outside, she also highlighted how ordinary interactions can appear different when viewed in isolation or presented without their full context. Her message encouraged Scout to be mindful of these perceptions while staying true to himself.\r\nMore than a confrontation, the conversation reflected the strength of Scout and Kaashvi’s bond. Kaashvi did not shy away from giving him honest feedback, but her words also carried encouragement and belief in his potential. She reminded Scout of his journey as a competitive esports player, the determination that made him one of India’s most recognised gaming personalities, and the community eagerly hoping to see him lift the Bigg Boss trophy.\r\nHer message reinforced that supporting someone does not mean agreeing with every decision they make. Sometimes, it means having difficult conversations, offering a fresh perspective and reminding them of what they are capable of achieving. Scout listened to her concerns and expressed his intention to do better, making the exchange a potentially meaningful moment in his journey.\r\nAdding another perspective, former Bigg Boss 20 contestant Aman Gandhi, when asked about Scout and Love’s interactions, shared that their equation had appeared normal to him while he was inside the house. His comments offered an important reminder that people who have experienced life inside the Bigg Boss house may view certain interactions differently from audiences watching selected moments on television or social media.\r\nMeanwhile, Scout’s gaming community continues to stand firmly behind him, with prominent gaming personalities including Jonathan Gaming and Payal Gaming also expressing their support. Creators such as Kaashvi, Vanshaj, Neyoo, Abhinav and Adit Minocha have been encouraging Scout throughout his journey through watch parties, online engagement and conversations with fans. The support from some of India’s most recognised gaming creators reflects the strong relationships Scout has built within the industry over the years.\r\nFor years, Scout has been recognised for his competitive spirit, passion for gaming and determination to succeed. His transition from esports to mainstream reality television has introduced him to an entirely new audience, while the community that supported his rise in gaming continues to follow his journey.\r\nWhat makes this support particularly meaningful is that it extends beyond his performance inside the house. For those who have known Scout through his years in gaming, his identity is shaped by far more than any single episode or moment of controversy. His supporters are encouraging him to take the feedback positively, regain his focus and show audiences the qualities that earned him their admiration in the first place.\r\nKaashvi’s visit ultimately brought that larger picture back into focus. Despite the difficult conversation, her message was rooted in wanting Scout to succeed, reminding him of the ambitions that brought him this far and the people hoping to celebrate another victory with him.\r\nAs Scout continues his Bigg Boss 20 journey, the message from his supporters remains clear: they believe in his ability to learn, grow and return his focus to the competition. For the gaming community, the hope is to see the same ScoutOP who inspired millions through esports give his all in the race for the Bigg Boss trophy.","articleSection":"Lifestyle","datePublished":"2026-10-26T19:49:07+0530","dateModified":"2026-10-26T19:55:57+0530","inLanguage":"en-us","author":{"@type":"Person","name":"Correspondent Desk","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com/user/marudharabharti"},"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Marudhara Bharti English","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com/uploads/logo/logo_6ab9270c36c334-01124948.png"}},"image":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhRDihc_nm1GyhfKme2x8LJ6lv1jgfCEV3GdWJa8Qmbz3TiAWNpEbia75p0mGv1k_kIcvEq_qA5NjEejzd5YQ5BH6fleX1x1QP5aRPxTGTExB4Io3LZzZ0mPwJ1KrXSemJZOPtYKUzD3U1HQNlZbca1EJGer16nsy9rQlScru9Xwi-Y2cXuBp0P58ck49Ga/w1600/image.jpeg","contentUrl":"https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhRDihc_nm1GyhfKme2x8LJ6lv1jgfCEV3GdWJa8Qmbz3TiAWNpEbia75p0mGv1k_kIcvEq_qA5NjEejzd5YQ5BH6fleX1x1QP5aRPxTGTExB4Io3LZzZ0mPwJ1KrXSemJZOPtYKUzD3U1HQNlZbca1EJGer16nsy9rQlScru9Xwi-Y2cXuBp0P58ck49Ga/w1600/image.jpeg"},"keywords":["We","Support","You","","ScoutOP:","Kaashvi","Hiranandani","and","Gaming","Community","Rally","Behind","Scout","Amid","Bigg","Boss","Journey"]}</script>

The hook is released as an open audio on Instagram, so anyone can use it for their own Diwali reels.\r\nWatch it here: https://www.instagram.com/reel/DezE6dwS7w5/?psln=MWE1bTdpdXU1ejdi\r\nThe rap captures what Diwali at Parsi Dairy Farm has always been about: a house full of relatives, plates that keep getting refilled, and boxes of mithai carried along when visiting loved ones. The film brings together the brand’s signature offerings, including barela peda, sutarfeni, kulfi and ghee, alongside this season’s new chocolate dragees and flavoured nuts, beautifully presented in Diwali hampers. Now run by the family’s fourth generation, Parsi Dairy Farm is telling its story through music for the first time, connecting its 110-year legacy with a new generation of consumers who increasingly discover and engage with brands on social media. The rap brings this heritage into a format that feels native to the platforms they use, creating a fresh way for them to connect with the brand and make it part of their own Diwali traditions, from sharing mithai to gifting loved ones.\r\n“Most of Mumbai has a Parsi Dairy Farm memory. This Diwali we wanted to make something for the generation making the memories now, in their language and their format. The rap is still about what we have always been about: a box of mithai, given to someone you love,” said Zeenia K. Patel, Director, Branding and Marketing, Parsi Dairy Farm.\r\n“This Is Diwali, Giving” is live on Parsi Dairy Farm’s Instagramhandle from 23rd October.

Organizations operating across multiple locations need solutions that can simplify payroll processing, reduce manual workloads, and provide consistent visibility into employee compensation. Against this backdrop, Ramco Systems is strengthening its position in the payroll technology landscape with Ramco Payce, a unified global payroll platform designed to support businesses across industries and geographies.\r\nWith capabilities spanning payroll automation, employee self-service, AI-powered technology, reporting, and managed services, Ramco Payce offers enterprises a comprehensive approach to modern payroll management.\r\nAddressing the Growing Complexity of Payroll Management\r\nManaging payroll involves much more than calculating salaries. Businesses must coordinate employee data, tax deductions, statutory requirements, benefits, approvals, and reporting while ensuring employees are paid accurately and on time. These responsibilities become more demanding as organizations expand into new markets and manage increasingly distributed workforces.\r\nFragmented payroll systems can create additional challenges. Multiple vendors, disconnected applications, and manual reconciliation processes may increase administrative effort and make it harder for finance and HR teams to maintain consistent oversight.\r\nRamco Payce addresses these challenges through a connected payroll platform designed to streamline operations across countries. The solution supports payroll requirements in more than 150 countries, helping enterprises manage global operations while accounting for local regulations and business requirements.\r\nBy bringing payroll processes together within a unified environment, organizations can work toward greater standardization, improved operational visibility, and more efficient payroll administration.\r\nRamco Payce: A Unified Platform for Global Payroll\r\nRamco Systems has developed Payce to help businesses manage payroll operations through technology that adapts to different organizational requirements. Enterprises can choose cloud-based operations, specialist-supported services, or a combination of approaches based on their infrastructure and operating model.\r\nThis flexibility allows organizations to align payroll management with their existing processes while preparing for future expansion.\r\nRamco Payce brings together payroll processing, compliance-related workflows, employee services, and reporting capabilities. Rather than relying entirely on separate tools for different payroll activities, businesses can use a connected environment to coordinate tasks and improve access to relevant information.\r\nThe platform is designed for organizations across sectors, including IT and software, retail, healthcare, manufacturing, logistics, banking, hospitality, and business process outsourcing. Its enterprise-oriented capabilities make it relevant to businesses with complex payroll structures and geographically distributed teams.\r\nAI-Powered Automation for Greater Payroll Efficiency\r\nAutomation is becoming increasingly important as payroll teams seek to reduce repetitive work and improve the reliability of payroll operations. Manual validations, data reconciliation, and exception handling can consume significant time, particularly during monthly and year-end payroll cycles.\r\nRamco Payce incorporates AI-powered capabilities to support process automation, identify anomalies, and surface relevant insights. These features can help payroll teams detect unusual entries, investigate potential discrepancies, and focus their attention on issues that require further review.\r\nThe platform also emphasizes payroll accuracy and operational transparency. Ramco highlights 99% payroll accuracy and zero-error anomaly detection as product capabilities, reflecting its focus on improving the quality of payroll processing through technology.\r\nBy reducing reliance on repetitive manual checks, intelligent payroll tools can help organizations streamline workflows and allow payroll professionals to concentrate on analysis, compliance oversight, and workforce-related priorities.\r\nEmployee Self-Service and Simplified Payroll Workflows\r\nEmployee experience is another important consideration when selecting payroll software. Employees frequently need access to payslips, earnings information, deductions, and other payroll-related details. When these resources are difficult to access, HR teams may face a higher volume of routine queries.\r\nRamco Payce addresses this requirement through Daily HR, an employee portal designed to provide a modern and intuitive self-service experience. Employees can access relevant payroll information, while managers and HR teams can use streamlined workflows for approvals and administrative tasks.\r\nThe platform’s employee-facing capabilities support operations across multiple countries and currencies, helping organizations serve diverse workforces through a more consistent digital experience.\r\nFor payroll administrators, the Payroll Workspace provides a centralized environment for reviewing inputs, uploading data in bulk, addressing integration issues, processing payroll, checking anomalies, and downloading reports. This consolidated workflow can improve visibility into payroll activities and help teams manage processing tasks more efficiently.\r\nManaged Services and Advanced Payroll Analytics\r\nOrganizations do not always have the internal resources required to manage every aspect of payroll operations. For enterprises operating across multiple jurisdictions, local requirements, reporting responsibilities, and processing schedules can add to the administrative burden.\r\nRamco Payce Managed Services combines payroll technology with specialist support to help businesses coordinate payroll operations across more than 150 countries. This approach is designed to simplify operational responsibilities while supporting country-specific payroll and compliance workflows.\r\nThe platform also includes BInGO, a reporting and analytics tool that enables users to generate reports and explore payroll data without coding expertise. Its reporting capabilities can help organizations examine workforce information, identify trends, and gain greater visibility into payroll operations.\r\nTogether, these capabilities support businesses seeking a balance between automation, specialist assistance, and data-driven payroll management.\r\nEnterprise Results Demonstrate the Value of Payroll Unification\r\nReal-world implementations can provide useful insights into how payroll technology addresses enterprise challenges.\r\nRamco Systems reports that its work with Boskalis Westminster helped the global marine operations company achieve 40% faster payroll processing following payroll unification. The implementation covered more than 90 countries and supported the workforce with managed service.\r\nAnother highlighted example is Hitachi Energy, where payroll was established across 20 countries as part of a major organizational transition. The implementation supported approximately 8,000 employees and integrated with Workday and SAP S/4HANA.\r\nThese examples demonstrate the importance of integrating payroll processes, accommodating local requirements, and maintaining operational continuity during business expansion and organizational change.\r\nWhy Businesses Are Evaluating Ramco Payce\r\nModern enterprises need payroll software that can scale alongside their workforce, support compliance requirements, and integrate with existing business systems. They also need access to reliable reporting, secure information management, and appropriate implementation and operational support.\r\nRamco Systems highlights its APAC-focused payroll expertise, unified technology platform, annual security audits, and combination of software with specialist services as key differentiators. The company also reports recognition as a Leader across four consecutive Everest Group PEAK Matrix assessments.\r\nFor businesses with international payroll responsibilities, these capabilities provide several factors to consider when comparing enterprise payroll solutions.\r\nConclusion\r\nAs payroll management becomes more technology-driven, businesses are increasingly looking for platforms that combine accuracy, automation, compliance support, and scalability. Ramco Payce brings these capabilities together through a unified payroll solution designed to support organizations operating across multiple countries and industries.\r\nWith AI-powered technology, employee self-service, centralized payroll processing, managed services, and reporting tools, Ramco Systems offers an approach that addresses several common challenges associated with modern payroll operations.\r\nFor enterprises planning to streamline payroll processes, improve operational visibility, or expand into new markets, Ramco Payce is a solution worth evaluating as part of their payroll technology strategy.\r\nMedia Contact :\r\nBrand name : Ramco Systems\r\nCompany : Ramco Systems\r\nWebsite :https://www.ramco.com\r\nAddress :100 Overlook Center, 2nd Floor, Princeton, NJ 08540\r\nPhone :+1 609 620 4800\r\nEmail :Contact@ramco.com\r\nSocial Media Platform :\r\nhttps://www.linkedin.com/company/ramco-systems\r\n\r\nPosts by RamcoSystems\r\n\r\nhttps://www.facebook.com/Ramcosystems\r\nhttps://www.youtube.com/channel/UC6XQ4Dbe869a4GV_zqcictg\r\nhttps://www.instagram.com/ramcosystems\r\nIf you object to the content of this press release, please notify us at pr.error.rectification@gmail.com.

Choosing the best payroll software in India in 2026 requires businesses to evaluate automation, scalability, security, reporting capabilities, and integration with existing HR and finance systems.\r\nFor enterprises with domestic and international operations, a unified payroll platform can help reduce administrative complexity while providing greater visibility into payroll activities.\r\nWhy Businesses Need Modern Payroll Software in 2026\r\nTraditional payroll processes often involve spreadsheets, repetitive data entry, disconnected systems, and manual verification. These activities can increase the risk of payroll discrepancies, delay salary processing, and make it difficult for HR teams to respond to regulatory changes.\r\nModern payroll software helps automate routine tasks, centralize employee information, and simplify payroll calculations. It can also support reporting, employee self-service, and integration with human resources and financial applications.\r\nFor Indian businesses, essential considerations include support for applicable tax deductions, provident fund contributions, employee state insurance, professional tax, and other statutory requirements relevant to their workforce. Organizations operating across multiple countries must also account for local tax regulations, filing requirements, currencies, and payroll calendars.\r\nA suitable solution should address current operational needs while providing the flexibility to accommodate future business growth.\r\nKey Features to Consider When Choosing Payroll Software\r\nBefore investing in a payroll management system, businesses should assess several important capabilities.\r\n1. Payroll Automation and Accuracy\r\nAutomated payroll calculations, validation checks, and anomaly detection can help reduce repetitive manual work. Businesses should look for solutions that identify unusual payroll entries, flag discrepancies, and provide clear approval workflows before payroll is finalized.\r\n2. Statutory Compliance Support\r\nCompliance capabilities are essential for organizations operating in regulated environments. Payroll software should support relevant statutory calculations, reporting, and filing workflows while helping teams monitor regulatory updates. Businesses should confirm the solution’s coverage for their specific locations and responsibilities.\r\n3. Employee Self-Service\r\nEmployee self-service portals allow employees to access payslips, review payroll information, and complete relevant requests without depending entirely on HR teams. These capabilities can improve transparency and reduce routine administrative queries.\r\n4. Integration With Existing Systems\r\nPayroll rarely operates independently. Integration with HR management systems, accounting platforms, enterprise resource planning solutions, and time-tracking applications can improve data consistency and reduce duplicate entry.\r\n5. Scalability and Reporting\r\nBusinesses should consider whether their chosen platform can accommodate additional employees, business entities, and geographical locations. Reporting and analytics capabilities are equally important because they help payroll and finance teams understand trends, investigate exceptions, and make informed decisions.\r\n6. Data Security and Implementation Support\r\nPayroll systems process sensitive employee and financial information. Organizations should evaluate access controls, encryption, security certifications, audit trails, implementation assistance, and ongoing support before making a decision.\r\nRamco Systems: A Unified Approach to Global Payroll\r\nFor enterprises seeking advanced payroll capabilities, Ramco Systems offers Payce, a global payroll platform designed to help organizations manage payroll operations across countries through connected technology and services.\r\nRamco Payce supports payroll operations across more than 150 countries, helping businesses manage international payroll requirements through a unified platform. Its approach combines payroll automation, compliance capabilities, employee self-service, reporting, and managed services to address the operational needs of distributed workforces.\r\nThe platform is designed to accommodate different operating models, including cloud-based deployment, specialist-supported payroll operations, and arrangements that combine customer infrastructure with managed services.\r\nThis flexibility can be valuable for organizations that need to modernize payroll without adopting the same operating model across every business unit.\r\nHow Ramco Payce Supports Payroll Efficiency\r\nRamco Payce brings together several capabilities that help organizations streamline payroll management.\r\nPayroll Workspace: The centralized workspace helps payroll teams review inputs, upload data in bulk, resolve integration issues, process payroll, verify anomalies, and download reports. Consolidating these activities can improve operational visibility throughout the payroll cycle.\r\nDaily HR and Employee Self-Service: Employee-facing portals provide convenient access to payroll information, payslips, and relevant HR activities. Features such as multi-currency support and one-click approvals can help simplify workflows for distributed teams.\r\nManaged Payroll Services: Organizations that prefer external operational support can combine payroll technology with specialist-led services. This model can help enterprises manage processing activities, compliance-related workflows, and operational complexity across multiple jurisdictions.\r\nBInGO Reporting and Analytics: Ramco Payce includes BInGO, a reporting and analytics tool designed to provide on-demand reports and insights without requiring coding expertise. Payroll teams can use these capabilities to examine workforce costs, identify trends, and improve reporting efficiency.\r\nAI-Infused Payroll Technology: AI-powered capabilities can assist with process automation, anomaly detection, and payroll insights. By identifying exceptions and reducing repetitive validation tasks, intelligent automation can help teams focus on resolving issues and improving payroll operations.\r\nEvidence of Enterprise Payroll Performance\r\nWhen evaluating payroll software, businesses should examine customer experiences alongside product features. Ramco Systems highlights enterprise implementations that demonstrate how unified payroll platforms can address complex operational requirements.\r\nFor example, the company’s Boskalis Westminster case study reports a 40% improvement in payroll processing speed following payroll unification. The implementation covered more than 90 countries and supported the workforce with managed services.\r\nRamco also highlights its work with Hitachi Energy, where payroll was established across 20 countries as part of a major organizational transition. The implementation supported approximately 8,000 employees and integrated with Workday and SAP S/4HANA.\r\nThese examples illustrate why integration, localization, and consistent payroll processes matter when businesses operate across multiple markets.\r\nMaking the Right Payroll Software Decision in 2026\r\nSelecting the best payroll software in India starts with understanding the organization’s size, workforce structure, compliance obligations, existing technology, and growth plans.\r\nSmall and medium-sized businesses may prioritize straightforward salary processing, statutory calculations, and affordable implementation. Larger enterprises may require multi-entity management, advanced reporting, integrations, managed services, and international payroll capabilities.\r\nDecision-makers should compare vendors using practical demonstrations, implementation timelines, support arrangements, security documentation, and transparent pricing. They should also assess how easily the system can accommodate future workforce expansion.\r\nFor businesses managing payroll across several countries, Ramco Payce offers a combination of unified payroll technology, AI-powered capabilities, employee self-service, analytics, and managed services. Its global coverage makes it a solution worth evaluating for enterprises that need to coordinate payroll operations across diverse markets.\r\nUltimately, the right payroll software should do more than process salaries. It should help organizations build reliable payroll operations, improve visibility, support compliance, and prepare their workforce management processes for future growth.\r\nMedia Contact :\r\nBrand name : Ramco Systems\r\nCompany : Ramco Systems\r\nWebsite :https://www.ramco.com\r\nAddress :64,Sardar Patel Road, Taramani, Chennai, 600113, Tamin Nadu\r\nPhone :+91 44 6653 4000\r\nEmail :Contact@ramco.com\r\nSocial Media Platform :\r\nhttps://www.linkedin.com/company/ramco-systems\r\n\r\nPosts by RamcoSystems\r\n\r\nhttps://www.facebook.com/Ramcosystems\r\nhttps://www.youtube.com/channel/UC6XQ4Dbe869a4GV_zqcictg\r\nhttps://www.instagram.com/ramcosystems\r\nIf you object to the content of this press release, please notify us at pr.error.rectification@gmail.com.

Walls are repainted, kitchens are refreshed and every corner gets attention before the lamps are lit. This year, the ritual comes with a new consideration: the cost of materials.\r\nCosts Rise, Priorities Shift\r\nA sheet of plywood or a tin of paint now costs more than it did last Diwali. Prices of plywood, laminate and MDF have climbed by as much as 15% this year, and paint by up to 8%, industry reports show. Yet the festive urge to refresh the home has not faded. More than one in five urban households plan to renovate this season, according to a LocalCircles survey of over 67,000 people.\r\nWith budgets stretched, families are asking different questions. Beyond how a finish looks on day one, they want to know how long it will last and how much care it needs. Two parts of the home show this shift most clearly: the exterior walls and the kitchen.\r\nOutside Walls: Built to Last, Designed to Stand Out\r\nNow that the monsoon has passed, many homeowners are noticing exterior walls where the paint has begun to bubble or flake as moisture seeps behind it through rain, hairline cracks or condensation. A fresh coat fixes the surface for a season or two, but aluminium composite panel (ACP) facades offer a longer-lasting answer. Fixed slightly away from the wall, the panels act as a shield against rain, while the air gap behind them lets moisture and heat escape. Their coated surface also holds its colour for years.\r\nDurability is only half the story. A home’s exterior is the first thing neighbours and guests see, and many families want it to say something about them. ACP lets homeowners redesign the front elevation without rebuilding it, with marble-look finishes for a premium feel or wood grains for warmth. Newer 3D-shaped, perforated panels add depth and cast patterns of light and shadow. This festive season, they may light up the neighbourhood as much as the diyas do.\r\nFins give balconies and duct areas a rich look while letting in air and filtered light, and louvers add rhythm and texture. The lightweight panels go up with a dry fixing system, and premium coatings carry warranties of up to 10 years.\r\nThe Kitchen: Easy Care, Lasting Looks\r\nThe kitchen deals with heat, steam and grease every day. Wood-based materials remain a familiar choice but need regular polishing and protection from dampness. Homeowners who prefer a lighter routine are now looking at aluminium composite panels, which resist corrosion, rot, warping and moisture, wipe clean easily and come in a wide range of colours and finishes. Aluminium honeycomb panels go further: they are lighter still, exceptionally strong for their weight and fire retardant.\r\nBecause ACP can be bent and shaped, it is also used for ceilings, partitions, counters and wardrobes, and architects &amp;amp; designers specify it for offices, showrooms and other commercial &amp;amp; residential spaces.\r\n“Diwali is the one time of year when almost every family looks at their home as a whole, from the kitchen to the front wall,” said Divyam Shah, Whole Time Director and CFO, Euro Panel Products Limited. “Families want a home that lasts and reflects their personality. That is why, at Eurobond, we offer a wide design library and back our panels with long-term warranties. We test our panels in our NABL-accredited laboratory, and that accreditation is like the hallmark sign is for gold: an authorised body assuring consumers of the quality we promise.”\r\nWhat to Check Before Choosing\r\nA few questions can help at the buying stage. Has an accredited laboratory tested the product? Does the range offer the finishes you want, from marble and wood to metallic and 3D-shaped panels? Does the contractor have experience working with ACP? With these answers in hand, a Diwali refresh can become an upgrade that keeps paying off long after the decorations come down.","articleSection":"Business","datePublished":"2026-10-26T17:38:08+0530","dateModified":"2026-10-26T17:38:08+0530","inLanguage":"en-us","author":{"@type":"Person","name":"Correspondent Desk","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com/user/marudharabharti"},"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Marudhara Bharti English","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com/uploads/logo/logo_6ab9270c36c334-01124948.png"}},"image":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://www.entrepreneuroutreach.com/uploads/images/202610/image_1200x675_6adf3fcaec395.webp","contentUrl":"https://www.entrepreneuroutreach.com/uploads/images/202610/image_1200x675_6adf3fcaec395.webp"},"keywords":["Diwali home renovation","ACP facade","aluminium composite panel","kitchen renovation ideas","plywood price hike","Eurobond ACP","festive home makeover"]}</script>

The expansion increases Cordelia Cruises’ deployed capacity and broadens its domestic and international itinerary network, with weekend sailings, Goa and Lakshadweep cruises, and international itineraries to the Maldives and Sri Lanka now operating across Mumbai and Kochi.\r\nThe scale of Cordelia Cruises’ expanded operations was visible in Mumbai on 23rd October, when Cordelia Sky and Cordelia Empress were both handled at the port on the same day. Across the two ships, nearly 6,000 guests embarked and disembarked. Cordelia Sky departed Mumbai on her inaugural guest sailing, while Cordelia Empress commenced her onward journey towards her new homeport in Kochi.\r\nThe milestone was captured at sea as Cordelia Sky and Cordelia Empress sailed together off India’s western coast before continuing on their respective journeys. The image of both ships sailing side by side marks a defining moment in Cordelia Cruises’ evolution from a single-ship operation to a two-ship fleet operating across Mumbai and Kochi.\r\nJurgen Bailom, President &amp;amp; CEO, Cordelia Cruises, said: “Seeing Cordelia Sky and Cordelia Empress sailing together was a very special moment for all of us. Five years ago, we began with a vision to make cruising a holiday choice for more Indians. Today, we have two ships sailing from two homeports, giving our guests more destinations, more itineraries and more ways to experience a holiday at sea. Mumbai has been central to our journey from the beginning, and adding Kochi as a homeport allows us to take cruising closer to many more travellers across India.”\r\nMore Choice from Mumbai\r\nCordelia Sky, the newest addition to the Cordelia Cruises fleet, is now sailing from Mumbai following its inaugural guest sailing on 23 October 2026. Cordelia Sky will offer a mix of short and longer itineraries from Mumbai, including 2 and 3 night weekend cruises, 4-night Lakshadweep cruises and 5-night itineraries combining destinations including Goa and Lakshadweep.\r\nCordelia Sky accommodates 2,280 guests at full occupancy across 1,002 staterooms, including 245 Mini Suites, 11 Penthouse Suites and four Chairman’s Suites.

The journey of Bhatia Mobile is a story of resilience, family dedication and customer trust. After establishing a strong presence in Gujarat, Maharashtra, Rajasthan and Madhya Pradesh, the company has now opened its first Haryana store in Rohtak, the hometown of the Bhatia family.\r\nA Journey That Began with Adversity\r\nDuring the 1980s, Mr. Harbans Lal Bhatia was a successful businessman in Surat, operating textile weaving and wholesale businesses. However, an accident in 1986 left him bedridden for nearly three years. In his absence, the business collapsed, leaving the family with losses of approximately ₹80 lakh by 1989. To repay debts, the family had to sell its personal assets.\r\nMr. Harbans Lal Bhatia and his wife, Mrs. Kamlesh Kumari Bhatia, began again from a small rented shop, operating a PCO/STD booth alongside a juice centre. Their sons, Sanjeev and Nikhil, helped with the business while attending school. Waking up at 4 a.m. to visit the fruit market, managing the shop and then going to school became part of their daily routine. Through years of hard work, the family gradually rebuilt its business.\r\nFrom a Juice Centre to Mobile Retail\r\nIn 1996–97, the family entered the mobile accessories business and opened its first mobile store in Surat in 1998. Competitive pricing, an understanding of customer needs, and reliable service helped the business grow.\r\nBy 2003, Bhatia Mobile operated three stores in Surat, attracting customers from nearby towns such as Vapi, Valsad, Bilimora, Bardoli and Vyara. In 2007, the company adopted a franchise model, expanding to 85 stores by 2012. In 2014, it launched its own handset brand, HSL Mobile.\r\nToday, Mr. Sanjeev Bhatia serves as the company’s Chairman, while Mr. Nikhil Bhatia is its Whole-Time Director, co-promoter and co-founder.\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nA Network of 500+ Stores Across Four States\r\nExpanding beyond Gujarat, Bhatia Mobile established its presence in Maharashtra, Rajasthan and Madhya Pradesh. Growing demand for smartphones, internet connectivity and digital payments in Tier-2 and Tier-3 cities created new opportunities for expansion.\r\nEarlier this year, the company opened 90 stores in just 90 days, demonstrating its rapid expansion capabilities. Its network now exceeds 500 mobile stores. Strong supply chains, logistics, staffing and employee training have played an important role in supporting this growth.\r\nDespite the rise of online shopping, the company continues to focus on physical retail. Customers often prefer to compare cameras, battery life, features and financing options before purchasing a smartphone. Physical stores offer them the opportunity to explore devices firsthand and make informed decisions.\r\nThe company was listed on the BSE in 2018. According to the information provided, its annual turnover is approximately ₹1,000 crore, with a valuation of around ₹500 crore.\r\nA Homecoming in Rohtak\r\nThe company’s first Haryana store is located at Shop No. 11–12, Municipal Market, Rohtak, Haryana – 124001. Opening a store in the family’s hometown represents more than business expansion; it is also an emotional return to its roots. Kamlesh Kumari Bhatia will be present for the store’s inauguration.\r\nAccording to Mr. Sanjeev Bhatia, opening a store in Rohtak is an opportunity to reconnect with the family’s roots. Mr. Nikhil Bhatia believes customer trust remains the company’s greatest strength, and the family intends to carry this philosophy into Haryana.\r\nSpecial Launch Offers for Customers\r\nTo celebrate the Rohtak store’s inauguration, Bhatia Mobile has announced several attractive offers. These include a neckband priced at ₹999 for just ₹90 and earbuds worth ₹1,999 for only ₹199. The company has also announced offers on select iPhone models at previous prices, along with easy EMI options.\r\nAdditionally, customers can participate in a Spin and Win promotion for a chance to win prizes, including an electric vehicle, television, washing machine, smartphones and other rewards. Applicable terms and conditions will apply.\r\nThe Next Chapter of Expansion\r\nThe Rohtak store marks the beginning of Bhatia Mobile’s expansion into Haryana. The company plans to strengthen its presence in Tier-2 and Tier-3 markets. Its journey from a small juice centre to a network of more than 500 stores demonstrates how perseverance, customer-focused service and a strong business strategy can transform a family-run venture into a large retail enterprise.\r\nAbout Bhatia Mobile: Founded in Surat, Gujarat, Bhatia Mobile is a family-run public limited mobile retail company. After entering the mobile accessories business in 1996–97 and opening its first mobile store in 1998, the company has grown to operate more than 500 stores across four states.\r\nIf you object to the content of this press release, please notify us at pr.error.rectification@gmail.com.

From landmark infrastructure projects to critical defence platforms, steel manufactured in Hazira continues to support India’s growth and strategic ambitions.\r\nThe latest achievement places Surat at the centre of yet another national milestone, with Hazira-made steel helping strengthen India’s indigenous naval shipbuilding capabilities. As the country advances its Aatmanirbhar Bharat vision, Hazira’s contribution to strategically significant projects such as INS Mangrol demonstrates the important role Surat is playing in nation-building and defence self-reliance. Fittingly, the vessel is named after Mangrol, a coastal town and important fishing harbour in Gujarat’s Junagadh district, creating a strong Gujarat connection for a warship built with 100% specialised steel manufactured at AM/NS India’s Hazira facility.\r\nMr. Ranjan Dhar, Director &amp;amp; Vice President – Sales &amp;amp; Marketing, AM/NS India, said: “The commissioning of INSMangrolis a proud milestone for our Hazira operations and for Surat. The specialisedsteel supplied for the vessel reflects the advanced manufacturing capabilities, technical expertise and quality standards developed at Hazira. We are proud that steel produced in Surat is contributing to India’s defence preparedness and maritime security.”\r\nINS Mangrol is the third Mahe-class Anti-Submarine Warfare Shallow Water Craft (ASW-SWC) to enter service with the Indian Navy. Built with more than 80% indigenous content at Cochin Shipyard Limited, the vessel reflects India’s commitment to AatmanirbharBharat and Make in India, while demonstrating the country’s growing capabilities in indigenous warship design, construction and systems integration. \r\nDesigned for anti-submarine warfare, underwater surveillance and coastal security operations, INS Mangrol will play an important role in safeguarding India’s maritime interests and strengthening maritime domain awareness in coastal waters.\r\nAM/NS India is supplying 100% of the specialised steel required for the fleet of eight ASW-SWCs being built for the Indian Navy. The company has also supplied specialised steel for several key naval platforms, including INS Visakhapatnam, INS Surat and INS Malvan.\r\nBeyond defence applications, steel produced at Hazira has contributed to some of India’s most significant infrastructure projects, including the Chenab Railway Bridge, Anji Khad Railway Bridge, Bogibeel Bridge and the India-based Neutrino Observatory.\r\nFrom strengthening India’s maritime security to enabling landmark national infrastructure, these projects underline the growing role of Hazira-manufactured steel in supporting the country’s strategic and developmental priorities while showcasing Surat’s contribution to nation-building on a truly national scale.","articleSection":"Business","datePublished":"2026-10-26T16:28:37+0530","dateModified":"2026-10-26T21:00:06+0530","inLanguage":"en-us","author":{"@type":"Person","name":"PNN","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com/user/pnnindia"},"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Marudhara Bharti English","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com/uploads/logo/logo_6ab9270c36c334-01124948.png"}},"image":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://pnndigital.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/10/PNN-2026-10-26T141346.418.jpg","contentUrl":"https://pnndigital.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/10/PNN-2026-10-26T141346.418.jpg"},"keywords":["From","Hazira","the","High","Seas:","Surat-made","AMNS","India","steel","powers","INS","Mangrol"]}</script>

When the lights go off in a theatre, and the story unfolds on the big screen, hundreds of people laugh, cry, and feel together. That is the power of cinema. Technology will keep changing, and we must embrace it, but the heart of filmmaking will always remain the story and the emotion behind it. Through Celebrate Cinema, I want our young filmmakers to learn this craft, find their own voice and create stories that audiences will want to experience on the big screen.”\r\nThe festival concluded with filmmaker Imtiaz Ali in conversation with Subhash Ghai. Expressing his appreciation for WWI and its students, Ali spoke about the institute’s vibrant creative energy and the enthusiasm of its young talent. He also acknowledged Ghai’s vision in creating a platform that brings aspiring filmmakers closer to the craft of cinema and the people who shape it. Ali’s interaction reinforced the importance of nurturing creativity, encouraging young storytellers and preserving the emotional power of cinema.\r\nMeghna Ghai Puri, President, WWI, said: “Celebrate Cinema is where education meets inspiration. Big-screen cinema remains vital because it creates a shared experience, amplifies storytelling and gives audiences the opportunity to immerse themselves completely in a filmmaker’s vision. By bringing students face-to-face with industry leaders and emerging technologies, we prepare them to shape the future of cinema while preserving the magic of the theatrical experience.”\r\nCelebrate Cinema ’26 reaffirmed WWI’s commitment to bridging education and industry, empowering the next generation of storytellers to innovate, collaborate, and keep the magic of cinema alive on the big screen.\r\nIf you object to the content of this press release, please notify us at pr.error.rectification@gmail.com.

It connects farmers, traders and companies with cold storages, refrigerated (reefer) trucks and cold-chain suppliers on one verified platform. Its founder, Koundinya Pochampally, describes the company less as a startup than as the third chapter of a family promise to India&#039;s farmers.\r\n&quot;I didn&#039;t set out to launch a startup. I set out to honour a fifty-year promise,&quot; he says.\r\nThree generations, one mission\r\nThe story begins in the pomegranate orchards of Anantapur, Andhra Pradesh. Koundinya&#039;s grandfather, P. Sudhakar Rao, was a member of the Government of India&#039;s Mission for Integrated Development of Horticulture (MIDH) and an advisor to ICAR&#039;s horticulture research institute. Over five decades he counselled farmers across four states, free of charge, and helped bring the Ganesh pomegranate variety to South India&#039;s drought-prone districts.\r\nThe second generation, Koundinya&#039;s father, Dr. P. Upender Rao, founded the Coldcare Group in 1998. It went on to become an established cold-storage construction, operations and reefer-transport business.\r\nKoundinya returned to India in 2022 after his studies at the University of London, days before his grandfather passed away. Reading through his grandfather&#039;s handwritten advisory notes and his father&#039;s cold-storage blueprints, he saw the missing piece. Farmers needed a single place, on their own phone and in their own language, to find cold storage, arrange transport and get the information they need to sell well.\r\n&quot;Technology can scale access, but it cannot manufacture trust,&quot; he says. &quot;Every feature we build has to answer one question: does this help a smallholder earn more? That question came directly from my grandfather&#039;s field notebooks.&quot;\r\nThe problem: information, not infrastructure\r\nIndia loses a large share of its harvest after it leaves the farm. A widely cited ICAR-CIPHET study put annual post-harvest losses at about ₹92,651 crore. Cold storage capacity has grown for two decades, yet many facilities run part-empty. A farmer still struggles to find a reliable storage in the next district when he needs it the next morning.\r\n&quot;The gap is not capacity. The gap is information,&quot; Koundinya explains. &quot;A cold storage that nobody can find, book or trust is infrastructure that doesn&#039;t work. Policymakers build the highway. We build the GPS.&quot;\r\nTwo apps, one verified network\r\nCold Konnect runs as two apps on a shared platform, both available on Google Play and the Apple App Store.\r\nThe Cold Konnect User app serves farmers, traders and corporate buyers. They can search for cold storages and trucks by location and send requests for space or loads. The app also gives them an AI plant-disease scanner, live mandi rates and a community where farmers discuss crop problems and trade produce. It is built for rural India: multiple Indian languages and simple, jargon-free design.\r\nThe Cold Konnect Partner app serves cold storage owners and truck fleet operators. Storage owners get temperature and humidity sensors installed by the Cold Konnect team, plus shareable temperature reports for clients and insurers. An inventory module tracks lots, marks and gate passes. Reefer and dry trucks get GPS tracking, with temperature monitoring on reefers, so a fleet owner sees every truck on one screen. Partners pay a simple yearly subscription with no commission on bookings or enquiries. Their facilities become discoverable to buyers across India.\r\nListings are verified before they go live, so buyers can trust who they are dealing with. Verified temperature records also let small operators compete for food-processing, pharma and export customers who demand compliance documentation.\r\n&quot;We are not building new cold storages,&quot; says Koundinya. &quot;We are filling the ones that already exist.&quot;\r\nBuilding for generations\r\nKoundinya measures Cold Konnect&#039;s success in decades, not quarters. He sees cold-chain data as future public infrastructure. Verified storage and temperature records could support food-security planning, price stability and even farm credit, with a farmer&#039;s verified storage history one day serving as collateral.\r\nHis picture of success is a single morning in Anantapur. A pomegranate grower checks mandi rates and finds a verified cold storage nearby. He diagnoses a leaf disease in Telugu within seconds, books storage and transport, and gets a better price for fresh produce. In his post on the Cold Konnect community, he mentions that his grandfather once worked with Sudhakar Rao garu.\r\n&quot;That,&quot; says Koundinya Pochampally, &quot;is the world we are building.&quot;\r\nAbout Cold Konnect\r\nCold Konnect (ColdKonnect Tech Solutions Pvt. Ltd., Hyderabad) connects India&#039;s farmers, traders and businesses with verified cold storages, reefer trucks and cold-chain suppliers through the Cold Konnect User and Cold Konnect Partner apps.\r\nWebsite: coldkonnect.com | Email: info@coldkonnect.com","articleSection":"Business","datePublished":"2026-10-26T16:28:30+0530","dateModified":"2026-10-26T16:37:55+0530","inLanguage":"en-us","author":{"@type":"Person","name":"Correspondent Desk","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com/user/marudharabharti"},"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Marudhara Bharti English","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com/uploads/logo/logo_6ab9270c36c334-01124948.png"}},"image":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjcv2ZsDyKlIpabB0HTgezIMQn5JK979wFHo8udCW2ka2xAi_7uPTVzXje-BZ9ACRtmeeU8n-PKsRtz5daVQoJe-Xq4bStY-AO6wsIpyRNTZQ6pdumcqlJDFjof-wTeCKL3FS1h0-xR322QSLqM8QSD8gpDj21BMB8i13QajoLD873-Hot-Kcthlv0CrGMa/w1600/image.jpeg","contentUrl":"https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjcv2ZsDyKlIpabB0HTgezIMQn5JK979wFHo8udCW2ka2xAi_7uPTVzXje-BZ9ACRtmeeU8n-PKsRtz5daVQoJe-Xq4bStY-AO6wsIpyRNTZQ6pdumcqlJDFjof-wTeCKL3FS1h0-xR322QSLqM8QSD8gpDj21BMB8i13QajoLD873-Hot-Kcthlv0CrGMa/w1600/image.jpeg"},"keywords":["Cold","Konnect:","Three-Generation","Bet","Indias","Farmers"]}</script>

Then Step Out of the Room.","name":"Mark the Fences. Then Step Out of the Room.","articleBody":"The Leadership Philosophy Behind Vanchinathan T’s Talent Engine\r\nNew Delhi [India], October 23: From a 15-engineer garage to a growing technology ecosystem, his approach has remained simple: establish strict boundaries, hand over real responsibility, and build an environment where people learn to make sound decisions without a boss in the room.\r\nWhen an unexpected error occurs in complex hardware, the instinct is always to fix it. A boss can step in, take over the workbench, correct the parameter, and preserve the immediate schedule. The component is saved, but the young engineer remains dependent. The easiest person to make dependent is the very person you are trying to develop. A boss who immediately supplies the answer may solve today’s problem, but they quietly make tomorrow’s problem harder.\r\nThe alternative choice creates short-term friction: define the non-negotiable standard, hand the problem back, and step out of the room. The engineer is forced to discover the flaw and own the solution. The fastest way to solve a problem is rarely the fastest way to build the person who will solve the next one. In fact, rescuing people too quickly is the fastest way to weaken an organisation.\r\nVanchinathan T’s talent model is built on this premise. His architecture does not remove control; it changes where control lives.\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nThe 2008 Garage\r\nThat philosophy was forged under pressure in 2008. Returning from Malaysia with an ambition to manufacture semiconductors in India, Vanchinathan set up a modest workspace. When the initial venture stalled and the capital burned out, he found himself in a garage with fifteen young, inexperienced engineers.\r\nThe easier decision would have been to close the operation. The business had failed. He did not decide that the people had failed. He kept the team intact and pivoted into defence electronics and aerospace hardware—a field where standards are non-negotiable and mistakes are costly.\r\nHe did not manage them with a corporate cage of rigid permissions, nor did he offer unguided chaos.\r\nHe marked the fences.\r\nThe point was never unrestricted freedom; it was independent judgement within institutional boundaries. In high-consequence engineering, the boundaries are the control system: quality benchmarks, testing protocols, safety limits, and strict accountability. What changes is who is allowed to think inside them. Over time, the question in an engineer’s head shifts from “What does the boss want me to do?” to “What does the problem demand of me?”\r\nFrom the Bench to the Floor\r\nOver the following years, that garage cohort grew into a talent pipeline across Jeanuvs, Yeemak, and Vidvedaa. To maintain momentum, Vanchinathan bypassed traditional recruitment, bringing entry-level recruits and college interns with aspiration, ambition and attitude directly onto active production floors.\r\nThey are handed real responsibility on live lines handling complex, active sub-systems. Pressure makes authority attractive. When a failure occurs on a factory floor, the default instinct for a junior engineer is to look upward and wait for someone to take over. But when authority refuses to supply the immediate answer, recruits are forced to navigate the technical constraints themselves.\r\nStandardisation can eliminate decisions that should not be made differently. It cannot eliminate the decisions a procedure never anticipated. That is where judgement begins.\r\nCrucially, bounded independence does not mean every decision is solitary. In high-consequence work, the system still demands escalation, verification, and formal review whenever uncertainty is high. The independence lies in solving within the system, not operating outside it. Engineers who proved their capability inside this system have repeatedly stepped up to manage plants, operations, and larger business divisions across the group.\r\nThe Ambalapattu Parallel\r\nThe same instinct appears far outside a factory floor. When Vanchinathan returned to his childhood village of Ambalapattu to upgrade the government school he once attended, he did not begin by asking students or teachers to perform better. He first asked what in their environment was preventing capability from emerging in the first place.\r\nA child in a rural school does not lack talent; they lack a platform to express it. Before expanding classrooms, he funded a roofed auditorium—currently under construction—right in the middle of the schoolyard. Confidence precedes curriculum. A stage provides a physical space to step up, speak before an audience, and develop presence.\r\nNext comes the issue of attendance during the heavy monsoon season, where flooded village roads make reaching the campus a daily ordeal. To address this, he is adding additional vehicle support alongside a four-room additional classroom block, interactive smart classes, and much more. By prioritizing the stage first, he set out to change the conditions before asking the person to change.”\r\nWhat Happens When the Room Clears\r\nLeadership is often measured by what happens when the boss is present. Vanchinathan’s model asks a harder question: what happens after they leave?\r\nA boss who insists on making every important decision builds an organisation bound entirely to personal bandwidth. When they leave the room, people wait. But when a boss stops answering, people have to start thinking. When people start thinking, an organisation starts learning.\r\nMost bosses measure their value by how many problems they can solve. Vanchinathan’s model asks a different question: how many problems can the organisation solve without him?\r\nThe true test of a boss is not how well an organisation performs when they are standing in the centre of the room. It is how decisively people act when the room is entirely theirs.\r\n","articleSection":"Business","datePublished":"2026-10-24T18:53:40+0530","dateModified":"2026-10-24T18:59:04+0530","inLanguage":"en-us","author":{"@type":"Person","name":"PNN","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com/user/pnnindia"},"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Marudhara Bharti English","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com/uploads/logo/logo_6ab9270c36c334-01124948.png"}},"image":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://pnndigital.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/10/PNN-2026-10-24T111307.152.jpg","contentUrl":"https://pnndigital.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/10/PNN-2026-10-24T111307.152.jpg"},"keywords":["Mark","the","Fences.","Then","Step","Out","the","Room."]}</script>

Its approach brings together conceptual inquiry, learning experiences, assessment and reflection, with dedicated platforms for learners to discuss complex ideas and share their progress with families.\r\nThe emphasis comes amid a broader debate about the role of human judgement in education. UNESCO’s Digital Learning Week, held in Paris from September 8 to 11, 2026, examined education in the age of AI, including how synthetic content is changing the way knowledge and evidence are produced and evaluated. The event placed human agency and the public purpose of education at the centre of that discussion.\r\nMaking the learning process visible\r\nAt Tattva Swayam, learning begins with inquiry and dialogue. Learners then engage in experiences that help them examine a concept, move through assessment of what they have understood and reflect on what changed during the process. These four stages provide a structure for self directed learning without reducing progress to a single final answer.\r\nAn inquiry may draw on reading, observation, discussion, field exposure or practical work. Learners can document their understanding through journals, sketches, models, project records or other material created during the experience. This evidence helps facilitators examine how a learner reached a conclusion, rather than looking only at whether it was correct.\r\nThe assessment stage asks whether a learner can explain an idea, make connections and apply a concept in a new context. Reflection follows by examining what remains uncertain, what proved difficult and which questions deserve further attention. The aim is to help children become active participants in understanding their own progress.\r\nSandhya Gatti, Founder and Managing Director of Tattva Swayam Open Learning Resource Centre, believes children have a natural readiness to learn when given the opportunity. “I firmly believe that all children are eager and capable of complex learning provided due space and time for it to unfold,” she said.\r\nA dedicated forum for questioning\r\nThe centre’s Swayam Vichar Manch is a platform for conversations about the deeper meaning of everyday concepts, such as fear, technology and friendship. Informed by its Philosophy for Children practice, the Manch encourages learners to consider why they hold an opinion, what evidence supports it and how another perspective might challenge it.\r\nThe goal is not to make every participant agree. A learner may offer a reason, hear a counterexample and reconsider the original claim. A facilitator helps sustain the dialogue through questions and encourages children to distinguish an assertion from an argument. The exchange makes listening, reasoning and respectful disagreement part of the learning process.\r\n“Questioning is how we explore, investigate and make sense of the world around us. When we deprive learners the opportunity to question, we deprive the world of innovation and change,” Gatti said.\r\nThese habits are relevant beyond formal lessons. When children encounter an online explanation or an automatically generated response, they still need to ask whether the information is reliable, what it leaves out and whether a stronger reason might point to a different conclusion.\r\nFrom investigation to a learner conference\r\nThrough Swayam Samvaad, learners demonstrate their learning to parents and guardians in formats that reflect their strengths and interests, showcasing their learning process, achievements and challenges. The forum is intended both to celebrate the learning journey and to identify the next steps for the learner.\r\nThe distinction is significant. Instead of presenting only a completed project, learners can explain the questions that guided it, the experiences that shaped their understanding and the difficulties they worked through. They may draw on their documentation, discuss the choices they made or explain why an early idea needed revision.\r\nFor parents, this provides a broader account of learning than a finished assignment alone. For learners, the act of presenting and explaining their work offers another opportunity to organise their thinking and recognise the areas in which they want to grow.\r\nThe two platforms serve different but connected purposes. Swayam Vichar Manch gives learners room to investigate beliefs and develop arguments with peers. Swayam Samvaad gives them an audience for explaining how their understanding has developed and what they hope to explore next.\r\nTechnology as a tool, not a replacement for judgement\r\nGatti sees potential in AI when it enhances learning, but says the central concern should remain the development of human capacities. She asks, “how do we nurture the human element through all this technology.”\r\nThe centre includes activities such as music, dance and farming in its learning environment. Gatti believes technology could create fresh opportunities for children to investigate challenges in these fields, provided that the experience still encourages them to observe, inquire and develop their own understanding.\r\nAn AI generated explanation might help a learner begin researching a topic. It cannot by itself demonstrate that the learner understands the evidence, can recognise a contradiction or can apply the concept responsibly. The distinction matters as increasingly fluent tools become part of how young people seek information.\r\nIndia’s National Education Policy 2020 also places emphasis on critical thinking, experiential learning and developing the ability to solve problems. The wider policy direction gives relevance to practical approaches that combine disciplinary knowledge with opportunities to inquire, create, discuss and reflect.\r\n\r\nA learner sharing work and reflecting on the learning process during Swayam Samvaad with parents or guardians.\r\nBeyond the correct answer\r\nFor a centre established only last year, Tattva Swayam’s current learner community is modest in size. Its four stage framework and two learner platforms nevertheless offer a specific example of how an educational approach can place thinking alongside knowledge acquisition.\r\nThe broader question is whether learning environments can preserve the space required for children to work through uncertainty. Immediate answers are useful, but they cannot replace the experience of testing a claim, explaining a conclusion or learning why an earlier belief may not hold.\r\nAs AI makes information increasingly easy to obtain, education faces a more demanding test: not only what children can answer, but how they learn to judge, question and understand.\r\nAbout Tattva Swayam\r\nTattva Swayam is an Open Learning Resource Centre in Jakkur, Bengaluru, founded in 2025. It currently serves 51 learners aged 3.5 to 15 years. The centre uses inquiry and dialogue, learning experiences, conceptual assessment and reflection. Sandhya Gatti is its Founder and Managing Director.\r\nIf you object to the content of this press release, please notify us at pr.error.rectification@gmail.com.

The strong growth reflects healthy execution of our order book and continued demand across our key markets. EBITDA margin stood at 17.42%, while Net Profit margin was 10.07% during the period.   Margins witnessed some pressure during H1 FY27, primarily due to the inflationary environment and higher input costs, particularly across key raw materials. However, around 70–75% of our order book is covered by price variation clauses, which provides protection against significant movements in raw material prices and helps us manage cost volatility over the execution period. We remain focused on procurement efficiency, better product mix and operating leverage as volumes scale up.   Our order inflow remained healthy during the first half. We secured 11 orders with a cumulative value of ₹209.24 Cr, with execution timelines ranging from 7 to 17 months. We also expanded our geographic presence into Maharashtra, further broadening our customer and market base. Our current order book stands at ₹565.80Cr, providing healthy revenue visibility for the coming quarters.   The ramp-up of our newly inaugurated Kannur facility is progressing well, with production and capacity utilisation scaling up as planned. The additional capacity is expected to support execution of our growing order book and enable us to participate in larger and higher-capacity transformer opportunities.   Overall, business momentum remains encouraging, and we continue to progress in line with our targets for the year. Our focus remains on timely order execution, improving capacity utilisation, maintaining a healthy order pipeline and strengthening our presence across existing as well as newer markets.”\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nOperational Highlights H1 FY27\r\n\r\nSecured 11 Orders During the Period\r\nCumulative Order Value of ₹209.24 Cr\r\nOrders to be Executed Over 7–17 Months\r\nExpanded Geographic Presence into Maharashtra\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nOrder from Maharashtra\r\nSecured a ₹13.50 Cr order from an EPC company in Maharashtra for 20 MVA Power Transformers, to be executed within 7 months.\r\n\r\n\r\nOrder from Hyderabad\r\nReceived a ₹13.50 Cr order from a Hyderabad-based company for a 112.5 MVA, 330 kV Transformer, with an 11-month execution timeline.\r\n\r\n\r\nOrder from Hyderabad\r\nAwarded a ₹39.90 Cr order by an EPC company in Hyderabad for 20 MVA Power Transformers, scheduled for execution over 13–17 months.\r\n\r\n\r\nOrder from Hyderabad\r\nBagged a ₹51.30 Cr order from a Hyderabad-based company for 20 MVA Power Transformers, with delivery planned within 13 months.\r\n\r\n\r\nOrder from Hyderabad\r\nSecured a ₹23.30 Cr order from a company in Hyderabad for a 160 MVA, 220 kV Transformer, to be completed within 13 months.\r\n\r\n\r\nOrder from Karnataka\r\nReceived a ₹28.50 Cr order from a Karnataka-based EPC company for 20 MVA Power Transformers, with an 8-month execution period.\r\n\r\n\r\nOrder from Karnataka\r\nBagged a ₹5.70 Cr order from a company in Karnataka for 20 MVA Power Transformers, scheduled for execution within 12 months.\r\n\r\n\r\nOrder from Karnataka\r\nAdded another ₹5.70 Cr order from a Karnataka-based company for 20 MVA Power Transformers, with a 12-month execution timeline.\r\n\r\n\r\nOrder from New Delhi\r\nSecured a ₹5.60 Cr order from a New Delhi-based EPC company for 20 MVA, 66/11 kV Power Transformers, executable within 11 months.\r\n\r\n\r\nOrder from Karnataka\r\nReceived a ₹8.64 Cr order from an EPC company in Karnataka for 20 MVA Power Transformers, with completion targeted within 11 months.\r\n\r\n\r\nOrder from Hyderabad\r\nReceived a ₹13.60 Cr order from a Hyderabad-based company for a 112.5 MVA, 330 kV Transformer, with an 11-month execution timeline.\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nAbout Supreme Power Equipment Limited\r\nSupreme Power Equipment Limited (Supreme, SPEL), originally founded as a partnership firm in 1994 under the name “Supreme Power Equipment” and later incorporated as company under the name “Supreme Power Equipment Private Limited” in 2005, is a Tamil Nadu-based company specializing in the manufacturing of power and distribution transformers.

Robotics, artificial intelligence, coding and hands-on innovation programmes have often been treated as premium offerings, available mainly to students and institutions with the budgets to support them. STEM-Xpert is attempting to change that equation by building something considerably broader than another edtech platform.\r\nThe education technology company is developing an integrated STEM-as-a-Service ecosystem that brings together artificial intelligence, robotics, coding, IoT, practical learning, laboratories, digital education and entrepreneurship. Its proposition is built around a relatively straightforward idea: future-ready skills should become part of mainstream education rather than remain an expensive add-on.\r\nFounded by Fasalu Rahman, the company has been developing its approach to skill education since 2016. Its origins lie in a gap Rahman observed while working with students and educational institutions: academic education was not always keeping pace with the practical capabilities increasingly demanded by industry. As AI, robotics and automation accelerated, that gap became harder to ignore. STEM-Xpert was created to bring curriculum, technology, practical learning and digital education under one ecosystem.\r\n\r\nToday, the company is positioning itself as an AI-based STEM-as-a-Service provider for educational institutions. Its portfolio includes STEM Centres, Tinkering Labs, Robotics and AI Labs, Composite Skill Labs, STEM Academy programmes, robotics and DIY kits, teacher training, digital learning platforms and AI-powered educational solutions. The model allows schools, colleges and learning centres to adopt different components according to their requirements and resources, rather than building every part of the infrastructure independently.\r\nThat modular approach sits at the heart of STEM-Xpert’s affordability strategy. Instead of asking institutions to separately develop curriculum, acquire technology and train teachers, the company combines these elements into an integrated offering. The stated objective is to make exposure to robotics, coding, AI and emerging technologies available to a wider student population, including those who may not have access to premium technology programmes.\r\nBut the company’s ambitions are moving beyond teaching technology.\r\nOne of its more notable developments is ZOVA, an AI-powered humanoid teaching assistant robot designed for potential applications across schools, colleges and other educational institutions. The system brings together artificial intelligence, natural language processing, computer vision and voice interaction. For STEM-Xpert, the project also signals a shift in ambition: from teaching students about emerging technologies to developing and manufacturing technology in India.\r\nThe business is simultaneously building an education-to-innovation pipeline through three core offerings: STEM Academy, Composite Skill Labs and STEM Centres.\r\nIts AI-powered STEM Academy combines digital and live learning, allowing students to work on AI, robotics, coding and other emerging technologies through projects, personalised support and innovation-focused programmes. Composite Skill Labs take practical learning into schools through dedicated STEM, Tinkering, Robotics and AI laboratories, giving students environments where they can experiment, build and solve real-world problems. STEM Centres extend the model beyond schools by creating community-level spaces where students can continue learning and developing projects.\r\nThe intended progression is equally important to the company’s business proposition: Learn → Build → Innovate → Prototype → Entrepreneur/Startup Founder. STEM-Xpert says its ecosystem is designed to help students move from acquiring technical knowledge to developing ideas and solutions, with potential access to mentors, industry networks and funding opportunities.\r\nIts next growth opportunity lies beyond the Indian market. STEM-Xpert is targeting the UAE, Saudi Arabia and the wider GCC region, and has already participated in international technology and startup platforms including GITEX Dubai and Web Summit Qatar. The company is also pursuing international partnerships and STEM learning centres as it looks to take an Indian-developed STEM education ecosystem into global markets.\r\nWhat distinguishes the company is therefore less about any single product and more about the breadth of its model. STEM-Xpert combines training centres, tinkering labs, Robotics and AI Labs, Composite Skill Labs, its STEM Academy, robotics and DIY kits, humanoid teaching assistants, and innovation and entrepreneurship programmes. In business terms, it is attempting to connect hardware, software, curriculum, teacher training and experiential learning under one umbrella.\r\nThe larger question for the company is whether this integrated model can make advanced technology education both scalable and genuinely accessible. Its strategy suggests that the answer will not come from another standalone course, but from building the infrastructure around how students learn, experiment and eventually create.\r\nSTEM-Xpert’s stated mission is ambitious: to make future-ready education practical and affordable, while helping students progress from learning technology to building it. To make it success, STEM-Xpert has partnered with Kalam STREAM Challenge 2026, an initiative of Dr.APJ Abdul Kalam International Foundation hosted by ASM Group of Institutes, Pune, aims to nurture future leaders, innovators and entrepreneurs who transform ideas into meaningful solutions for society. \r\nSTEM-Xpert’s partnership with the Dr. A.P.J. Abdul Kalam International Foundation reflects a shared vision inspired by Bharat Ratna Dr. A.P.J. Abdul Kalam to empower young minds through science, technology and innovation.In a world where the ability to apply knowledge is becoming as important as acquiring it, the company is betting that the next generation of education will be less about simply teaching what technology can do and more about giving students the tools to build what comes next.","articleSection":"Business","datePublished":"2026-10-23T18:55:09+0530","dateModified":"2026-10-23T18:58:54+0530","inLanguage":"en-us","author":{"@type":"Person","name":"PNN","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com/user/pnnindia"},"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Marudhara Bharti English","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com/uploads/logo/logo_6ab9270c36c334-01124948.png"}},"image":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://pnndigital.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/10/PNN-121.jpg","contentUrl":"https://pnndigital.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/10/PNN-121.jpg"},"keywords":["STEM-Xpert","Taking","STEM","Education","Beyond","the","Classroom"]}</script>

From Delhi and Noida to Goa and other locations, the company has grown alongside changing property markets and customer needs.\r\nOver the years, Devika Group has successfully delivered 46 projects, developed more than 6.5 million sq. ft. of area and served over 14,000 customers. These milestones reflect the company’s journey and the experience it has gained over the years.\r\nToday, under the leadership of Ankit Aggarwal, Devika group is looking to expand its presence into other part of India with major focus on spritual destinations like Mathura, Vrindavan, Rameshwaram and others, taking its next steps in India’s changing real estate landscape.\r\nLeaving Footprints Across Different Markets\r\nDevika Group’s journey includes a presence in Delhi, Noida, Goa and other locations. Each market has its own property requirements and opportunities, giving the company experience across different real estate environments.\r\nDelhi and Noida are important parts of the Delhi-NCR region, with demand for both commercial and residential properties. Goa offers a different market, shaped by its location and lifestyle appeal. Working across these places has been part of the company’s wider journey in real estate.\r\nFor people researching the best builders in Delhi, a company’s experience, completed projects and understanding of the local market are useful factors to consider. Devika Group’s long association with the region forms an important part of its background.\r\nCommercial and Residential Real Estate\r\nDevika Group works across both commercial and residential real estate. These segments serve different needs and require an understanding of what businesses, property buyers and families look for in a property.\r\nCommercial spaces need to meet the practical requirements of businesses, including location, access and functionality. Residential properties, on the other hand, are closely linked to everyday needs such as convenience, connectivity and the surrounding neighbourhood.\r\nHaving experience across both segments gives the company a wider role in the property market. It also reflects the different types of requirements that shape real estate development across its operating locations.\r\nAnkit Aggarwal: Taking the Legacy Forward\r\nAnkit Aggarwal represents the next generation of leadership at Devika Group. His role is to build on the company’s established history while guiding its future direction.\r\nThe company places importance on trust, transparency, timely delivery and long-term value. Under his leadership, these principles remain part of the group’s approach as it responds to changing customer expectations and explores new opportunities.\r\nHis vision focuses on responsible development and careful planning across commercial and residential real estate. As the company looks towards new markets, the aim is to carry forward its experience while adapting to the needs of different locations.\r\nFor a business with such a long history, the next stage of growth is about more than maintaining its legacy. It is also about making the right decisions for the future and finding opportunities that fit the company’s direction.\r\nLooking Towards Expending to Other Region\r\nDevika Group is looking to expand its presence into other part of India including Jammu and Kashmir, Vrindavan and others. These destinations mark a new area of interest for the company as it explores opportunities beyond its existing markets.\r\nExpansion into new markets requires planning, research and a clear understanding of local requirements. The company’s next steps in these destinations will add a new chapter to its journey as it looks to broaden its presence across India.\r\nBuilding on the Past, Looking to the Future\r\nDevika Group’s journey has grown from its long-standing presence in real estate to a wider focus on commercial and residential development across different locations. Its experience in Delhi, Noida, Goa and other markets provides the background for its plans to explore new destinations.\r\nWith Ankit Aggarwal guiding the next phase, the company is looking to build on its existing foundation while keeping its focus on trust, responsible development and long-term growth.\r\nAs Devika Group moves forward, its story will continue to be shaped by the work it undertakes, the markets it enters and the way it responds to changing property needs. Its legacy is an important part of that story, but its future will be defined by the steps it takes next.\r\nIf you object to the content of this press release, please notify us at pr.error.rectification@gmail.com.

That assumption is becoming harder to make.\r\nFor Pranav Gupta, co-founder of Ashoka University, Plaksha University and Jamboree Education, the shift is increasingly about judging the educational experience rather than the country attached to it. “Students should look beyond the location or the foreign name attached to an institution,” he said recently while discussing international higher education.\r\nGovernment numbers point to a clear moderation in outbound movement. Bureau of Immigration data presented by the Ministry of Education show that Indians declaring study or education as their purpose for overseas travel fell from 894,758 in 2023 to 760,060 in 2024 and 619,264 in 2025 – a decline of about 31% in two years. These are travel-purpose figures, not a census of all Indians enrolled overseas, but they capture a meaningful change in momentum.\r\nThe United States illustrates the complexity. The Open Doors 2025 report counted 363,019 Indian students in the US in 2024-25, up 9.5% year-on-year and the highest of any country of origin. Yet Indian graduate enrolment fell 9.5%, while the number of Indians on Optional Practical Training jumped 47.3% to 143,740. The existing Indian student population therefore remains enormous even as newer demand shows signs of becoming more selective.\r\nThe policy environment is also becoming harder to ignore.\r\nBritain’s Graduate visa will fall from two years to 18 months for most bachelor’s and master’s graduates applying from January 1, 2027. Canada, meanwhile, expects to issue up to 408,000 study permits in 2026, 7% below its 2025 target and 16% below its 2024 target.\r\nAnd the uncertainty has intensified in the US. In October, the Department of Homeland Security proposed an initial $70,000 fee for each F-1 student OPT recommendation made by a participating institution. The proposal has not yet become final policy, but it demonstrates how dramatically the economics surrounding post-study work can change after a student has already made a substantial educational investment.\r\nThis is helping create a more destination-specific approach.\r\nGermany had 59,419 Indian students in the 2024-25 winter semester, making India its largest international source country and representing roughly 20% annual growth, according to DAAD. Reuters has also documented increased Indian interest in Germany, France, the Netherlands and Portugal as families compare tuition costs, employment pathways and visa conditions more carefully.\r\nPranavGupta had anticipated this diversification several years ago, observing that “more nations in Europe and the Middle East have come up to draw students to their shores.” What looked like an emerging alternative then is becoming a much more consequential part of the decision today.\r\nThe biggest change, however, may be in how families calculate value.\r\nTuition is only the starting point. Housing, currency risk, education-loan interest, university quality, employability in the chosen field, post-study work rights and the probability of securing a relevant job all need to enter the calculation. A cheaper degree with weak employment prospects can ultimately produce a poorer return than a more expensive programme with substantially stronger outcomes.\r\nThere is also a new competitor to the traditional study-abroad model: global education without migration.\r\nThe UGC has issued 16 Letters of Intent to foreign higher education institutions, while the University of Southampton has established its Gurugram campus and UNSW has established one in Bengaluru. Programmes proposed by foreign institutions span business, finance, AI, cybersecurity, data science and other emerging fields.\r\nGupta believes such developments can “expand the choices available to Indian students.” The implication is significant: families may increasingly compare an overseas degree not only with Indian universities, but also with the Indian campus of an international institution.\r\nNone of this suggests that Indian students are losing their global ambitions. The US remains a major destination, Germany is gaining strongly, and new markets continue to emerge.\r\nWhat is fading is the idea that a foreign degree is automatically worth any price.\r\nFor families in 2026, the more useful question is no longer simply, “Which country should my child study in?”\r\nIt is: What will this degree cost in total, what opportunities will it realistically create, and is there a better route to the same outcome?\r\nThat is not the end of the Indian study-abroad dream. It is the beginning of a much more calculated one.\r\n","articleSection":"Business","datePublished":"2026-10-23T18:55:09+0530","dateModified":"2026-10-23T19:02:18+0530","inLanguage":"en-us","author":{"@type":"Person","name":"PNN","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com/user/pnnindia"},"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Marudhara Bharti English","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com/uploads/logo/logo_6ab9270c36c334-01124948.png"}},"image":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://pnndigital.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/10/PNN-2026-10-23T160410.224.jpg","contentUrl":"https://pnndigital.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/10/PNN-2026-10-23T160410.224.jpg"},"keywords":["Pranav","Gupta","","Ashoka","University","Co-founder:","The","Indian","Study-Abroad","Dream","Becoming","ROI","Decision"]}</script>

Turning that heritage into a successful international business takes more than good raw material. It needs manufacturing expertise, consistent quality and a clear understanding of what overseas buyers expect. That is the path Ashish Patel has followed in building AQF Ingredients LLP into a growing spices exporter in India.\r\nFor Ashish Patel, Director of AQF Ingredients LLP (Anmol Quality Foods), the journey began in 2006 with a passion for Indian spices and small-scale trading. What started as a modest venture has grown into a food-ingredient business with manufacturing in Gujarat and customers in several international markets.\r\nFrom Trading to Manufacturing\r\nIn 2009, the business set up its base in Ahmedabad, strengthening its operations in Gujarat, one of India’s key spice-growing and export regions. A year later, it moved into manufacturing with an automated onion dehydration plant, laying the foundation for its dehydrated ingredient range.\r\nIn 2016, the company added its own spice blending unit, moving beyond single spices into customised blends and value-added ingredients.\r\nThese milestones turned AQF into a broader ingredient business, combining India’s traditional sourcing strengths with modern processing.\r\nA Manufacturer-Exporter Serving Global Food Businesses\r\nToday, AQF Ingredients supplies whole spices, spice powders, seasonings, customised blends, dehydrated vegetables and spray-dried powders. Its range also includes onion and garlic flakes and powders, and potato flakes.\r\nUnlike traders who buy and resell, AQF operates as a manufacturer-exporter. It sources, processes, tests and packs products itself, then handles export documentation and shipping. Importers can combine several products in one container and work with a single supplier instead of several. Buyers looking for a direct-from-manufacturer spices exporter in India can ship on FOB or CIF terms, with lot-wise test reports supplied with each order.\r\nThe company’s customers include food businesses across the European Union, Israel and the United States. A UK warehouse supports faster supply to customers in the United Kingdom.\r\nQuality at the Centre of Growth\r\nFor global food businesses, ingredient quality means more than flavour. Consistency, traceability, microbiological standards and reliable supply matter just as much.\r\nAQF’s quality framework includes laboratory analysis, raw-material and finished-product testing, traceability systems and food-safety practices. The company holds BRCGS, FSSC 22000, SEDEX and Kosher certifications. It also offers EU-IPM-grade spices and dehydrated ingredients, grown and processed to meet EU residue standards for buyers in Europe and the UK.\r\nAQF also provides R&amp;amp;D and product-development support for customers who need customised ingredient solutions.\r\nTaking India’s Spice Heritage to the World\r\nFrom small-scale spice trading in 2006 to manufacturing and international expansion, Ashish Patel’s journey shows how an Indian ingredient business can compete in global markets.\r\nAs demand grows for traceable, high-quality ingredients, the role of a reliable spices exporter in India is becoming more important to food manufacturers worldwide. Under Ashish Patel’s leadership, AQF Ingredients continues to build on India’s strengths in spices and agricultural ingredients, bringing sourcing, manufacturing, quality and customisation together under one roof.\r\nFrom Ahmedabad to international markets, the vision is clear: to bring the quality and diversity of Indian ingredients to food businesses around the world.\r\nAbout AQF Ingredients LLP\r\nAQF Ingredients LLP (Anmol Quality Foods) is an Ahmedabad-based manufacturer, supplier and spices exporter in India. The company supplies spices, spice blends, seasonings, dehydrated vegetables, onion and garlic powders, potato flakes and customised food ingredients to importers, distributors and food manufacturers worldwide.\r\nIf you object to the content of this press release, please notify us at pr.error.rectification@gmail.com.

Sometimes, it starts with a business opportunity. Sometimes, with a gap in the market. And sometimes, it begins with a conversation at home that changes the way someone sees an entire industry.\r\nFor CONTEMPRORY, it was the last.\r\nOn 16 October 2026, The Tivoli, Chattarpur, New Delhi, became the setting for the launch of CONTEMPRORY, a new-age skincare and lifestyle brand built around the philosophy “Define Your Presence.” The evening brought together more than 150 influencers and content creators from Delhi-NCR, along with an introduction to the brand’s five skincare essentials and perfume offerings.\r\nBut beyond the products, the launch celebrated something more personal: the story of why CONTEMPRORY came into existence in the first place.\r\nIt Started with a Simple Question from a Daughter\r\nDuring a media interaction at the launch, Mohan Paroha, Founder of CONTEMPRORY, shared a story that offered a glimpse into the thinking behind the brand.\r\nHis 13-year-old daughter was struggling with acne-prone skin. Like many people looking for the right skincare routine, she tried different products, hoping to find something that worked for her. Yet, the experience left her frustrated.\r\nOne day, she turned to her father with a question that stayed with him: Could there be skincare products that genuinely help people dealing with concerns like acne, pigmentation, and signs of ageing?\r\nIt was a simple question, but it led to a much bigger idea.\r\nFor Mohan Paroha, the conversation became an opportunity to look at skincare from a different perspective—not just as a market filled with products, but as a category where people are constantly searching for options that suit their needs.\r\nThat personal experience became the inspiration for CONTEMPRORY.\r\nThe intention was to build a brand around thoughtfully developed formulations, carefully selected ingredients, and products designed for specific skincare concerns. What began with a father’s desire to explore better options for his daughter gradually took shape as a larger vision: to create a skincare brand that could reach and serve many more people.\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nFive Products. Five Everyday Skincare Needs.\r\nAt the launch, CONTEMPRORY introduced five skincare products, each developed with a distinct role in a daily routine. From cleansing and hydration to sun protection and anti-ageing care, the range reflects the brand’s focus on bringing together recognised skincare ingredients and targeted formulations.\r\nThe Advanced Anti-Ageing Cream, formulated with Retinal, Bakuchiol, and Peptides, focuses on fine-line care, intense hydration, and skin-barrier support.\r\nThe Niacinamide + Salicylic Acid Face Wash combines Niacinamide, Salicylic Acid, and Centella to cleanse pores, help manage excess oil and shine, and support breakout-prone skin.\r\nFor daily sun protection, the Ultralight Fluid Sunscreen offers SPF 60+ PA++++ broad-spectrum protection, alongside Niacinamide, Sodium PCA, and Ectoin to support hydration and the skin barrier.\r\nThe Blue PDRN Face Serum, featuring Sodium DNA (PDRN) and Copper Tripeptide, adds a targeted step to a skincare routine, while the Blue PDRN Face Moisturizer, formulated with the same key ingredients, is designed for everyday use on the face and neck.\r\nTogether, these products offer a range of options for different skincare needs, with the brand placing emphasis on formulation, product experience, and everyday usability. CONTEMPRORY also presents a vegan-focused approach across its range, subject to the confirmed product specifications.\r\nThe idea is straightforward: skincare does not need to be about trying everything. It should begin with understanding what your skin needs and choosing products accordingly.\r\nAn Evening That Brought the Brand to Life\r\nThe launch was designed to be experienced, not simply witnessed.\r\nWith more than 150 influencers and creators from Delhi-NCR in attendance, the venue came alive with conversations, interactive games, dance performances, and plenty of opportunities to connect. The atmosphere moved beyond a conventional product launch, giving guests a chance to enjoy the evening while discovering the brand.\r\nThe much-awaited product reveal was one of the highlights. Guests explored the five skincare essentials, experienced their textures, and tried the products. CONTEMPRORY’s perfume offerings added another dimension to the evening, extending the experience into the lifestyle space.\r\nThe response continued beyond the venue. Influencers shared their initial impressions through Instagram Stories and Reels, with feedback highlighting the products’ textures, quality, and overall presentation. Their content helped introduce CONTEMPRORY to audiences who were not physically present at the event.\r\nFor a new brand, these first interactions matter. They create an opportunity to introduce not only the products, but also the thinking and effort behind them.\r\nAnd on this evening, the launch brought the brand, its products, and its first creator community together under one roof.\r\nThe Team Behind the Vision: Banega Brand\r\nAn idea can be powerful, but turning it into a brand requires much more than a good concept. There is a name to find, an identity to build, formulations to develop, packaging to get right, compliance to consider, and a marketing strategy to bring everything together. Each decision influences how a brand looks, feels, and connects with its audience.\r\nFor CONTEMPRORY, Banega Brand played a central role in bringing these pieces together.\r\nDuring the media interaction, Mohan Paroha spoke about how the Banega Brand team supported him throughout the process—from the early discussions around the brand name and logo to formulation, packaging, design, branding, compliance, and marketing.\r\nThe support was not limited to one stage of development. It extended across the journey of building the brand from the ground up, helping transform an initial idea into a coordinated identity and a launch-ready offering.\r\nMr. Mayank Tiwari, Founder and CEO of Banega Brand, was an important part of this journey, supporting the development of the brand and helping move the founder’s vision forward.\r\nFor Paroha, having a team involved in the details made the process more manageable, allowing him to concentrate on what he wanted CONTEMPRORY to stand for.\r\nThe launch evening was another part of that collaboration. From presenting the products to creating an experience for influencers and guests, the event brought the brand’s identity into the real world.\r\nCONTEMPRORY’s story is also a reminder that building a brand is rarely a one-person journey. Behind a finished product is a series of decisions, collaborations, and people working to make one vision come together.\r\nStarting in Delhi-NCR, Looking Beyond Borders\r\nFor now, CONTEMPRORY is focusing on Delhi-NCR, a strategic starting point for introducing the brand, building awareness, and connecting with consumers in the beauty and lifestyle space.\r\nThe ambition, however, goes well beyond the capital region.\r\nThe long-term vision is to establish CONTEMPRORY as an international brand, reaching consumers across markets and building recognition beyond India. It is an ambitious goal, and the launch marks an early step towards it.\r\nFor the team, the next chapter will be about building on this beginning—strengthening the brand’s presence, reaching the right audiences, and creating lasting consumer relationships.\r\nMore Than a Launch, the Beginning of a Story\r\nAs the evening at The Tivoli came to a close, CONTEMPRORY had introduced its products, connected with a community of creators, and shared the personal story behind its creation.\r\nWhat started with a father’s search for better skincare options for his daughter has grown into a brand with a broader purpose and international ambitions. With Banega Brand helping bring the vision to life, CONTEMPRORY now begins the next stage of its journey.\r\nThere is still a long way to go from a launch evening to a recognised name in the skincare industry. But every brand has to begin somewhere—and for CONTEMPRORY, that beginning came from a personal question, a decision to act, and a team that helped turn an idea into reality.\r\nCONTEMPRORY — Define Your Presence.\r\nTo know more, visit: www.contemprory.com\r\nIf you object to the content of this press release, please notify us at pr.error.rectification@gmail.com.

The achievement is a matter of pride not only for AM/NS India, but also for Surat and Gujarat, showcasing how a single production unit at Hazira has contributed significantly to India’s industrial and infrastructure growth.\r\nTo put the scale into perspective, 30 million tonnes of hot metal is equivalent to the weight of nearly 3,000 Eiffel Towers. It is enough to fill more than 1,700 Olympic-sized swimming pools. If converted into steel coils, the length would stretch approximately 3.18 million kilometres, enough to circle the Earth nearly 80 times, or travel to the Moon more than eight times. Few industrial facilities in the country can claim an achievement of this magnitude.\r\nCommissioned in 2010, Blast Furnace was designed to produce 1.75 million tonnes annually. Through continuous improvements, operational excellence and the dedication of its workforce, the furnace consistently exceeded its original design capacity and has today delivered more than 30 million tonnes of hot metal over its operating life.\r\nKnown as the starting point of the steelmaking process, a blast furnace converts iron ore into hot metal, which is then transformed into steel, making Blast Furnace a vital pillar of the plant’s operations.\r\nThe molten iron produced at Blast Furnace forms the foundation of steelmaking at Hazira. It is converted into steel at the Steel Melting Shop and further processed into slabs that are rolled at the Plate Mill and Compact Strip Production (CSP) Mill. The steel produced from these facilities serves critical sectors including infrastructure, construction, energy, engineering, manufacturing and transportation. Every tonne of hot metal produced at Hazira’s Blast Furnace has therefore played a role far beyond the plant gates, supporting the development of critical infrastructure that powers India’s economic growth and strengthens its manufacturing capabilities.\r\nOver the years, AM/NS India’s Blast Furnace has evolved into one of the country’s best-performing furnaces, consistently setting new benchmarks in productivity and operational excellence. The facility has achieved annual production levels exceeding 2 million tonnes and has introduced several industry-leading operational practices that have strengthened Hazira’s position as one of India’s most advanced steelmaking locations.\r\nThe achievement reflects the commitment, expertise and perseverance of employees whose collective efforts have transformed Blast Furnace from a newly commissioned unit into a symbol of reliability, innovation and high performance.\r\nThe 30 million tonne milestone reinforces Hazira’s growing role in India’s manufacturing ecosystem and marks another important chapter in the plant’s journey of creating world-class steel for a rapidly developing nation.\r\n","articleSection":"Business","datePublished":"2026-10-23T16:23:28+0530","dateModified":"2026-10-23T19:06:51+0530","inLanguage":"en-us","author":{"@type":"Person","name":"PNN","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com/user/pnnindia"},"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Marudhara Bharti English","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com/uploads/logo/logo_6ab9270c36c334-01124948.png"}},"image":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://pnndigital.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/10/PNN-2026-10-23T155811.413.jpg","contentUrl":"https://pnndigital.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/10/PNN-2026-10-23T155811.413.jpg"},"keywords":["AMNS","India’s","Hazira","Blast","Furnace","Crosses","Historic","Million","Ton","Milestone"]}</script>

From independent filmmakers promoting new releases to agencies coordinating campaigns across multiple social networks, digital visibility has become an important component of contemporary marketing.\r\nAgainst this evolving backdrop, SMMO.in has introduced SMMO — The Mother SMM Panel, a centralized social media marketing and digital services platform designed to simplify how individuals and professional teams discover, compare and manage digital marketing services.\r\nBringing together 22 service categories across major social media networks, messaging applications, music platforms, entertainment services and other digital channels, SMMO aims to make service discovery and order management more accessible through a single interface.\r\nThe platform is designed for creators, influencers, digital marketing agencies, social media managers, resellers, filmmakers, production houses, brands and businesses seeking a structured way to manage eligible digital marketing service requirements.\r\nRather than positioning itself around a single social network, SMMO adopts a broader approach to digital service accessibility, offering a catalogue that extends across multiple areas of the online ecosystem.\r\nA Media and Marketing Legacy Meets the Digital Economy\r\nOne of the distinguishing elements of SMMO’s brand story is the professional experience behind its development. According to the company’s published background, the media, branding, advertising, public relations and marketing experience informing SMMO dates back to 2001, spanning areas including entertainment, publishing, journalism, creative communications and digital marketing. That professional heritage predates the launch of SMMO.in itself. The platform represents a contemporary extension of this experience, translating established marketing and communications practices into a digital service-management environment.\r\nThe distinction is significant. While the technology and mechanisms of digital promotion continue to evolve, the underlying importance of visibility, audience awareness, communication and brand positioning remains central to marketing.\r\nSMMO seeks to address the operational side of this environment by bringing service information, pricing, ordering and account management together in one accessible platform.\r\nIts positioning as The Mother SMM Panel reflects the brand’s ambition to establish a comprehensive digital marketing services ecosystem rather than a narrowly focused platform.\r\nOne Platform, 22 Categories: Inside the SMMO Service Ecosystem\r\nA central feature of SMMO is the breadth of its service catalogue. The platform currently presents 22 categories covering major social networks and specialized digital services, including:\r\n\r\nSocial media platforms: Instagram, Facebook, YouTube, TikTok, X (formerly Twitter), Threads, LinkedIn, Pinterest, Snapchat, Reddit and Quora.\r\nMessaging and community platforms: WhatsApp, Telegram and Discord.\r\nMusic, audio and video platforms: Spotify, SoundCloud, Apple Music and Vimeo.\r\nSearch, entertainment and digital services: Google, IMDb, website traffic and crypto-related categories.\r\n\r\nThis range gives customers a centralized environment in which to explore different types of social media marketing and digital services without having to navigate separate service-management interfaces.\r\nDepending on the category and current catalogue availability, customers may encounter services associated with followers, likes, views, subscribers and other platform-specific engagement metrics.\r\nIndividual services have their own specifications, eligibility requirements, pricing structures and delivery conditions.\r\nFor agencies and marketing professionals working across multiple channels, having these details available through a common interface can simplify service comparison and administrative workflows.\r\nFor individual creators and smaller businesses, the platform provides a single starting point for evaluating available services before committing to an order.\r\nThe broader proposition is straightforward: one platform through which customers can explore multiple digital marketing service categories and manage eligible orders.\r\nWhy Centralized Digital Marketing Services Matter\r\nDigital marketing has become increasingly fragmented.\r\nA creator may publish videos on YouTube, maintain an Instagram presence, communicate through Telegram and distribute content across several additional platforms. A brand may simultaneously coordinate campaigns, creator partnerships and social media activities across different networks.\r\nFor professional teams, this creates a practical management challenge. Each platform operates with different content formats, audience characteristics, engagement mechanisms and promotional requirements.\r\nSMMO approaches this challenge from a service-management perspective. By consolidating available service categories into a unified dashboard, the platform is designed to reduce the administrative complexity associated with browsing services, reviewing specifications, placing orders and tracking account activity.\r\nIts interface allows registered customers to review available options, examine applicable service conditions and manage transactions within a common account environment. The value of this model lies in convenience and operational organization, particularly for users coordinating multiple eligible projects.\r\nA Digital Marketing Platform for Creators, Filmmakers and Entertainment Professionals\r\nFor the entertainment industry, digital distribution has opened new possibilities for filmmakers, production houses, music artists and creative professionals.\r\nShort films, documentaries, music videos, trailers, interviews and independent productions can now reach audiences through online platforms without depending exclusively on traditional distribution channels. Yet releasing content is only one part of the process. Discoverability, audience communication and promotional planning remain important considerations for creative professionals navigating an increasingly competitive digital environment.\r\nSMMO’s catalogue includes categories associated with YouTube, Instagram, Facebook, IMDb, music platforms and other digital services relevant to the wider entertainment ecosystem. This makes the platform potentially useful as a service-discovery and order-management resource for filmmakers, creative agencies, production teams and entertainment marketing professionals.\r\nFor example, a production house coordinating a digital release may need to evaluate different service categories while managing several online profiles and promotional activities.\r\nA music artist may have separate requirements involving video platforms, audio streaming services and social media channels.\r\nA creative agency may need a common administrative interface for managing eligible service orders across multiple authorized client projects.\r\nSMMO brings these categories into one environment, allowing users to review available services and their conditions according to their requirements. Importantly, paid promotional activity and service orders do not replace organic discovery, audience trust, editorial recognition or authentic public engagement.\r\nFor filmmakers and entertainment professionals, the strongest digital strategies continue to combine compelling creative work, legitimate promotional practices and meaningful audience relationships.\r\nDesigned for Digital Marketing Agencies, Resellers and Businesses\r\nBeyond individual creators, SMMO is structured to accommodate professional service-management requirements. Digital marketing agencies and social media managers frequently coordinate multiple campaigns, client accounts and platform-specific activities. The administrative requirements of these projects can involve reviewing service availability, comparing costs, organizing orders and maintaining transaction records.\r\nSMMO’s centralized panel is designed to support these activities through a unified customer account. Its catalogue and ordering workflow allow eligible users to select available services, review specifications, submit orders and follow processing information. This structure may be particularly relevant to freelancers, digital marketing agencies, resellers and businesses that regularly manage authorized digital service requirements.\r\nFor businesses operating across multiple markets, the platform also provides a common point of access, subject to country-specific payment availability and service restrictions.\r\nIndia, Dubai and the UAE: A Platform with International Accessibility\r\nSMMO identifies India, Dubai and the wider United Arab Emirates among its focus markets, while positioning its platform for customers in other supported international locations. These markets represent different but increasingly interconnected digital business environments. India has a substantial ecosystem of creators, filmmakers, entertainment businesses, digital agencies and online entrepreneurs. Dubai and the UAE similarly attract international businesses, creative professionals, agencies and brands serving diverse audiences.\r\nFor users working across borders, a centralized digital services platform can offer administrative convenience by providing access to supported categories through a common account interface. SMMO’s international positioning reflects its intention to serve customers beyond a single geographic market. Actual service availability, payment methods, pricing and eligibility may vary according to the customer’s location and selected service.\r\nTransparent Pricing, Clear Requirements and Order Visibility\r\nOne of the platform’s stated priorities is helping customers understand available services before placing an order. Through SMMO’s service catalogue, registered users can review relevant specifications, pricing and applicable conditions.\r\nThe standard customer journey follows four stages:\r\n\r\nAccount registration: Create an account through SMMO.in and access the customer dashboard.\r\nAccount funding: Add funds using an available payment method after reviewing the transaction details.\r\nService selection: Browse the catalogue, choose an eligible service, provide the required public profile or content URL and submit the order.\r\nOrder tracking: Review order history, available processing updates and transaction records through the dashboard.\r\n\r\nThe platform also provides support channels for customers seeking clarification or assistance with eligible orders. Delivery estimates, service availability, refill eligibility and other conditions differ between individual services. This emphasis on service-level information allows customers to evaluate available options before making a purchase.\r\nResponsible Marketing and Customer Account Protection\r\nAs digital marketing services become more accessible, transparency and responsible use remain important considerations.\r\nSMMO’s published standards emphasize informed purchasing decisions, account privacy, clear communication and adherence to applicable service conditions. The platform states that standard service orders do not require customers to disclose social media account passwords, one-time passwords or recovery codes. Instead, standard ordering workflows use relevant public profile, page, channel, post or content links. SMMO also acknowledges that third-party social media platforms operate according to their own policies, algorithms and technical systems. Consequently, outcomes such as organic reach, sustained engagement, audience quality, conversions, revenue and monetization cannot be guaranteed.\r\nCustomers are encouraged to review individual service descriptions and ensure that their intended use complies with the rules of the relevant platform. These disclosures are particularly important in a sector where service availability and marketing outcomes can vary considerably. For prospective customers, understanding the distinction between a service order and a measurable business outcome is essential to making informed decisions.\r\nHow SMMO Fits Into the Future of Digital Marketing Services\r\nThe continued expansion of online video, creator-led businesses, digital entertainment and cross-platform communication is changing how organizations approach visibility and promotional operations.\r\nMarketing professionals increasingly work across several digital channels, often coordinating different types of content, campaigns and service requirements. Platforms that simplify administrative workflows may therefore serve a practical role within the wider digital marketing ecosystem.\r\nSMMO’s approach is to combine a broad service catalogue with centralized ordering, account management and service information.\r\nIts relevance will ultimately depend on the consistency of its operations, the clarity of its service descriptions, customer experience and its ability to adapt to changing digital platform requirements. As the company develops its services, its focus on accessibility, transparent specifications and organized workflows provides a foundation for its intended position in the market.\r\nFor creators, agencies and businesses evaluating social media marketing service platforms, SMMO offers an additional option built around multi-category access and centralized administration.\r\nDiscover SMMO — The Mother SMM Panel\r\nSMMO.in is accessible to prospective customers seeking to explore available social media marketing and digital service categories.\r\nUsers can visit the official website, create an account, review the current catalogue and evaluate service details before placing eligible orders.\r\nThe platform also maintains an official social media presence under the common username @smmopanel, including Instagram, Facebook, Threads and X.\r\nAs digital platforms continue to influence entertainment, commerce and brand communication, SMMO is positioning itself as a centralized destination for users who want to explore and manage digital marketing services through a single interface.\r\nOfficial website: www.smmo.in\r\nAbout the platform: SMMO — The Mother SMM Panel\r\nOfficial Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/smmopanel/\r\nOfficial Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/smmopanel/\r\nContact: info@smmo.in\r\nIf you object to the content of this press release, please notify us at pr.error.rectification@gmail.com.

The company plans to commence exports to the United States in December 2026, marking a major step in its international expansion strategy. With its Silvassa manufacturing capacity expansion completed ahead of schedule, Lord’s Mark Industries is also preparing to explore opportunities across South America, subject to applicable country-specific regulatory requirements.\r\nThe development comes as the company completes its manufacturing capacity expansion at Silvassa ahead of schedule, strengthening its production readiness for international markets. With a diversified portfolio spanning orthopaedic supports, rehabilitation aids, mobility solutions, hygiene products and medical-care essentials, Lord’s Mark Industries aims to build a scalable export business from India.\r\nThe product portfolio includes Lords Activeguard cervical-thoracic braces, soft cervical collars, cervical and lumbar supports, abdominal belts, rib belts, chest binders, clavicle braces, shoulder immobilisers, arm slings, wrist and forearm splints, finger splints, thumb spica splints, elbow supports, tennis elbow braces, knee caps, knee immobilisers, hinged knee braces, patellar supports, ankle braces, ankle binders, foot-drop splints and bunion correctors.

The portfolio also features disposable hot and cold gel packs and medical tourniquets. Together, these products provide a diversified base across orthopaedic support, rehabilitation, mobility, hygiene and medical-care essentials.\r\nThe expansion positions the company to explore opportunities in a substantial global healthcare market. According to Mordor Intelligence, the United States general surgical devices market is projected to grow from US$6.69 billion in 2025 to US$9.67 billion by 2031, registering a CAGR of 6.35%. The South American general surgical devices market is projected to increase from US$1.37 billion in 2025 to US$2.19 billion by 2031, at a CAGR of 8.20%. These broader market estimates highlight the potential opportunity, although the addressable market for the company will depend on individual product categories and applicable regulatory requirements.\r\nCommenting on the development, Dr.SachidanandUpadhyay,Founder,ManagingDirectorandCEOof Lord’s Mark Industries Limited, said, “This certification proves the strong hold of our regulatorymedical-care and hygiene products listed with the US FDA, we are taking an important step towardsexpanding our global footprint.

As businesses accelerate AI adoption and navigate evolving regulatory requirements, the question is no longer simply whether to move to the cloud, but where their data resides, which laws govern it, and who controls the infrastructure that processes it.\r\nIn 2026, sovereign cloud is emerging as a strategic priority for Indian enterprises seeking to balance innovation with regulatory compliance, resilience, and long-term digital independence. As per the report by the Electronics &amp;amp; IT Ministry, India is strengthening AI-ready cloud infrastructure under the Digital India initiative, with the country’s cloud data centre capacity expected to grow four to five times by 2030, reflecting the growing importance of sovereign digital infrastructure.\r\nData has become one of the most precious resources in the modern business environment. It may refer to customer data, transaction records, training datasets for AI technologies, and intellectual property rights of companies.\r\nData Sovereignty Has Moved Beyond Compliance\r\nSovereign cloud is often viewed through the narrow lens of data localisation, but its scope extends far beyond where data is stored. It is about ensuring that data, infrastructure, and operations remain subject to Indian laws and regulatory oversight, while giving businesses greater control, transparency, and accountability over how their data is managed and processed.\r\nThe launch of the DPDP framework and the new sectoral regulations are prompting enterprises to rethink the architecture and models based on overseas regions and international movement of data.\r\nSuch a change can be seen among industries like BFSI, healthcare, manufacturing, government services, defense, and critical infrastructure.\r\nToday, businesses realize that compliance is a continuous process rather than a one-off effort.\r\nAI Adoption Is Accelerating the Need for Sovereign Infrastructure\r\nArtificial Intelligence is increasingly gaining significance in enterprise functions. Enterprises are using AI technology for various functions, including customer interactions, predictive analysis, automation, security, and operational intelligence.\r\nHowever, the safety of AI is dependent on the underlying infrastructure.\r\nAccording to a study conducted by IDC in collaboration with Dell Technologies, 96 per cent of Indian government officials are developing a sovereign AI strategy.\r\nIt demonstrates the increasing significance of sovereign digital ecosystems and data environments.\r\nWhile enterprises create AI models specific to a certain domain, there is increasing concern about data leakage, model ownership, security of inference, and adherence to regulations.\r\nEnterprises want to use an environment where sensitive data sets can be processed safely without any jurisdictional risks.\r\nSovereign Cloud helps enterprises to innovate using AI technology without losing control over their key digital assets.\r\nDigital Trust Is Becoming a Competitive Advantage\r\nThe digital economy in India is dependent on major government-driven initiatives for digital infrastructure, like identities, payments, and interoperable platforms.\r\nIn this development phase, the bar has been set much higher when it comes to transparency, accountability, and digital trust.\r\nConsumers are now more concerned about how data is collected, stored, processed, and protected by an organisation.\r\nInvestors, regulators, and partners also assess organisations on the grounds of cyber resilience and governance maturity.\r\nRahul Takkalapally, Co-founder,BharathCloud, says, “Cloud adoption in India is evolving beyond scalability and cost optimisation. Businesses today are prioritising data sovereignty, regulatory compliance, and digital resilience. As AI adoption accelerates, sovereign cloud infrastructure is becoming essential for organisations seeking greater control, security, and trust in their digital ecosystems.”\r\nResilience Matters More Than Ever\r\nThe disruptions in data centre environments across the world in recent times have underlined the significance of designing resilient infrastructure, having disaster recovery solutions in place, and backup plans.\r\nOrganisations can ill afford any downtime, loss of mission-critical information, or any dependency that reduces their control in the event of such incidents.\r\nSovereign cloud solutions have enabled organisations to design resilient systems by providing localised data centres, jurisdictional control, disaster recovery solutions, and improved observability.\r\nSovereign Cloud Is Becoming a Growth Market\r\nThe push towards sovereign cloud usage can be seen throughout the world. According to industry figures, the sovereign cloud industry is forecasted to expand from an estimated value of USD 139 billion in 2026 to over USD 650 billion by 2035 due to increasing localisation demands, security considerations, and the need for jurisdiction-controlled infrastructures.\r\nAt the same time, international tech companies are making huge investments in India’s cloud industry owing to its growing importance as a centre for digital infrastructure.\r\nInvestments worth billions of dollars in AI-enabled data centres and cloud infrastructures are being made in different parts of India.\r\nThe Future of Cloud in India Will Be Sovereign by Design\r\nThe future wave of India’s digital revolution will not just depend on how much cloud infrastructure companies will use, but how well they manage to govern, control, and protect it.\r\nA sovereign cloud infrastructure is no longer something that can remain out of scope for businesses, as it becomes essential to create a trusted ecosystem for AI, to ensure cyber resilience, regulatory compliance, and sovereignty.\r\nWith businesses moving at a rapid pace into the AI era, the key questions change from “Are we ready for the cloud?” to “Is our cloud strategy future-ready, compliant, and sovereign?”\r\nIn 2026, sovereignty is no longer just about geography. It is about ownership, resilience, trust, and the ability to shape one’s own digital destiny.

Ltd.Marking a significant milestone in the state&#039;s pageant landscape, the collaboration will bring a dedicated state-level competition to Karnataka, opening new avenues for young women to pursue their aspirations on a nationally recognised platform. Designed to discover and nurture talent beyond conventional geographical boundaries, the initiative aims to provide contestants from across Karnataka an opportunity to build their personal identities, gain industry exposure and embark on a transformative journey towards the national stage.Registrations for Femina Miss India Karnataka 2027 are now open at www.feminamissindiakarnataka.com.\r\nA Landmark Launch in BengaluruThe official announcement was made at a press conference hosted at JW Marriott Bengaluru, the Venue Partner for the occasion, in the distinguished presence of three accomplished women whose journeys reflect the opportunities and achievements associated with the Femina Miss India platform.The launch brought together Ms Sushruthi Krishna, Femina Miss India 2016 First Runner-Up and entrepreneur; Ms Khushi Ramesh Kalakeri, Femina Miss India Karnataka 2026 and digital content creator and Ms Swathi Muppala, Femina Miss India Karnataka 2017 and actor, who shared their perspectives on the evolving role of pageantry in shaping careers, inspiring ambition and creating opportunities for women.Speaking about the significance of passing the baton to Karnataka&#039;s next representative, Ms Khushi Ramesh Kalakeri, Femina Miss India Karnataka 2026, said, &quot;When I look back at my Femina Miss India journey, what stays with me isn&#039;t just the moment I received the crown, but the person I became along the way. Representing Karnataka gave me a deeper appreciation for where I come from and the responsibility that comes with carrying my state&#039;s name. To every girl considering applying, I would say, don&#039;t wait until you feel completely ready. Sometimes, the most rewarding journeys begin with one brave decision. I am excited to see who takes this legacy forward and makes it her own.&quot;Reflecting on her own experience and the possibilities that lie beyond the pageant, Ms Sushruthi Krishna, Femina Miss India 2016 First Runner-Up and entrepreneur, shared, &quot;Ten years ago, I stepped onto the Femina Miss India stage with dreams, determination and many unanswered questions about my future. What I discovered was that the experience could open doors far beyond pageantry. It taught me to communicate with conviction, trust my instincts and carry myself with purpose, lessons that have stayed with me as an entrepreneur. I hope the young women entering Femina Miss India Karnataka 2027 see this not simply as a competition, but as an investment in themselves. The crown may be one destination, but the confidence and courage you gain can take you places you never imagined.&quot;Welcoming the opportunity for aspiring women across Karnataka, Ms Swathi Muppala, Femina Miss India Karnataka 2017 and actor, said, &quot;Being Femina Miss India Karnataka 2017 will always hold a special place in my heart because it was one of those experiences that helped me believe in possibilities I hadn&#039;t fully explored. Coming from the world of pageantry into acting, I have seen how much that early exposure can shape your confidence and the choices you make. What makes this launch particularly meaningful is that young women across Karnataka now have a dedicated platform closer to home to begin their own journeys. I hope we discover girls with remarkable stories, unique perspectives and the determination to turn their ambitions into reality.&quot;Taking Karnataka&#039;s Talent to the National Spotlight\r\nWith a dedicated state-level platform, Femina Miss India Karnataka 2027 seeks to extend its reach beyond Bengaluru to engage aspiring contestants from cities and towns across the state, ensuring that talent, ambition and individuality find an opportunity to be recognised.The competition is envisioned as more than a conventional beauty pageant. Through exposure to the pageant ecosystem, participants will have opportunities to develop essential skills in communication, personal presentation, stage presence and professional grooming, while gaining valuable insights into the fashion, entertainment and media industries.By establishing a more accessible pathway to the national competition, the initiative also aims to celebrate Karnataka&#039;s distinctive cultural identity, diverse backgrounds and emerging voices, reinforcing the belief that the next generation of role models can emerge from every corner of the state.A Strategic Partnership to Strengthen the State&#039;s Pageant EcosystemAddressing the media, Dr Divya Rangenahalli, CEO, Media Connect, underscored the organisation&#039;s vision of creating a sustainable platform for identifying and supporting emerging talent.

Ltd., is expected to contribute to Karnataka&#039;s growing fashion, lifestyle and entertainment ecosystem by fostering connections among aspiring contestants, industry professionals, brands and prospective partners. With Bengaluru continuing to emerge as a prominent centre for entrepreneurship, fashion, culture and creative industries, the initiative positions the city as an important destination for a new chapter in the state&#039;s pageant journey.The Road to Femina Miss India Karnataka 2027The search for Karnataka&#039;s next representative will commence with state-wide auditions scheduled for November 2026, inviting eligible aspirants from across the state to participate. The journey will culminate in the Femina Miss India Karnataka 2027 Grand Finale, proposed to be held in Bengaluru in January 2027, where the state&#039;s next titleholder will be crowned.The organisers also announced opportunities for premium brands, corporate organisations and marketing partners to associate with the property through strategic sponsorships, integrated brand activations and audience engagement initiatives.

The company now provides an all-inclusive collaborative platform that brings together brands, influencers, content creators, and digital talents nationwide.\r\nCollabNexus – From Influencer Marketing Services to a Connected Digital Collaboration Ecosystem\r\nThe introduction of CollabNexus marks an exciting upgrade for DigiSoft Nexus services, as they take a significant leap forward in their approach to influencer marketing by providing both an expanded agency-based service model and a robust platform that allows brands, creators, and independent digital talents to interact and collaborate.\r\nDigiSoft Nexus has built upon their knowledge base by creating CollabNexus. The platform expands on the concept of collaborating with influencers and companies for digital marketing purposes; it also creates a platform that brings together people from different fields (i.e. creative, production, communication, etc.) to collaborate in developing digital marketing campaigns.\r\nThis expansion is driven by an ever-increasing demand for digital talents within the digital sector to be connected to each other via a variety of platforms. The majority of successful campaigns require additional resources beyond just influencers. In addition, brands must utilize video editors, photographers, content developers, and many other creative digital talents to turn their marketing strategies into effective digital experiences.\r\nCollabNexus: Multiple Opportunities for Collaborations\r\nCollabNexus wants to make it easier for people to find all digital talents through this platform. Brands have access to platforms where they can find potential influencers and creative talents to help meet their marketing goals.\r\nCollabNexus provides a platform for content creators and influencers to find potential brand partnerships, grow their professional network, and find collaboration partners that align with their content, expertise, and target audience. CollabNexus also provides opportunities for video editors, photographers, and other types of digital talents who contribute to creating high quality content and effective marketing campaigns.\r\nThe approach used by this company acknowledges that a successful digital marketing campaign will continue to rely heavily upon combining different types of expertise (skill sets), varied creative approaches (perspectives), and strategic goals (business objectives).\r\nBuilding on Experience to Meet Changing Market Needs\r\nThe development of CollabNexus is based on DigiSoft Nexus’s knowledge and experience in working with influencers to promote products/services and executing online campaigns. In its earlier form, DigiSoft Nexus was an agency that connected brands with influencers so that they could create content about the brand.\r\nCollabNexus will expand on what DigiSoft Nexus has done before. It will provide a way for many different people to find possible collaborators and look into various ways to work together.\r\nCollabNexus wants to help solve that problem by creating a collaborative space for finding and working together, and it goes further than simply connecting with influencers to include the broader creative community who support digital growth.\r\nAbout CollabNexus\r\nCollabNexus is an online digital influencer and brands collaboration platform created by DigiSoft Nexus that brings together brands, influencers, content creators, and other digital talents.\r\nThe platform expands on traditional influencer marketing to include other creative professionals like video editors and photographers.

At Basil Woods Juniors, Kharghar, the answer lies in nurturing the whole child, encouraging intellectual curiosity, physical development, emotional confidence, social skills, and cultural values from the earliest years.\r\nLocated in Sector 21, Kharghar, Navi Mumbai, Basil Woods Juniors brings together Montessori pedagogy, global early learning practices and Indian cultural values to create a joyful, child-centred learning environment. Its approach recognises that every child’s early years are an opportunity to explore, express, build relationships and develop the foundations for lifelong learning.\r\nIQ: Intellectual Development\r\nChildren develop curiosity and thinking skills when they have opportunities to explore, observe, experiment and solve problems. Through hands-on activities, Montessori-inspired experiences, storytelling, phonics and age-appropriate learning, Basil Woods Juniors encourages children to discover concepts rather than simply memorise information.\r\nPQ: Physical Development\r\nMovement, sensory exploration and active play are important parts of early childhood. Activities that develop coordination, fine and gross motor skills, body awareness and independence help children participate more confidently in their everyday environment.\r\nEQ: Emotional Intelligence\r\nEarly childhood is an important time for developing confidence, communication and an understanding of emotions. Through supportive educator interactions, group activities, play and daily routines, children have opportunities to express themselves, build relationships and practise empathy.\r\nSQ: Social Spiritual Development\r\nEducation also provides opportunities to learn kindness, gratitude, respect, responsibility and consideration for others. At Basil Woods Juniors, cultural learning and the signature Culture Connect programme bring Indian stories, traditions and values into children’s experiences in age-appropriate ways.\r\nTogether, these dimensions represent a broader vision of preschool education — one that values not only what children learn, but also how they grow and interact with the world around them.\r\nCulture Connect: Bringing Indian Values into Early Learning\r\nA distinctive part of the Basil Woods Juniors approach is Culture Connect, a signature programme that introduces children to India’s cultural heritage through stories, traditions, values and engaging experiences.\r\nRather than treating cultural learning as separate from education, the programme creates opportunities to explore values such as kindness, gratitude and respect as part of a child’s learning journey. It complements the preschool’s broader emphasis on curiosity, creativity, independence and social development.\r\nBy bringing together contemporary early learning practices and timeless Indian values, Basil Woods Juniors aims to give children a meaningful connection to their cultural roots while encouraging them to explore the world with confidence.\r\nLearning Through Play, Exploration and Everyday Experiences\r\nAt Basil Woods Juniors, learning extends beyond formal classroom activities. Storytelling, music, movement, creative projects, outdoor play, sensory exploration and hands-on experiences give children different ways to engage with ideas and develop new skills.\r\nEveryday routines also create opportunities for growth. Sharing materials, participating in group activities, practising self-help skills and interacting with peers can encourage communication, cooperation and independence.\r\nNutritious Sattvik meals form another part of the preschool’s approach to everyday care. Mealtimes can also provide opportunities to practise healthy habits, sharing and age-appropriate independence.\r\nThis integrated approach reflects the belief that a nurturing preschool environment should support children’s cognitive, emotional, social, language, and physical development together.\r\nChoosing a Preschool in Kharghar: Looking Beyond the Basics\r\nFor parents exploring a preschool in Kharghar, choosing the right environment involves more than comparing facilities, timings, or academic programmes. It also means understanding how a preschool encourages curiosity, supports emotional comfort, develops independence, and helps children build relationships.\r\nParents can look for an age appropriate learning approach, caring educator interactions, opportunities for play and exploration, meaningful values based learning, and open communication between the preschool and family.\r\nAt Basil Woods Juniors, programmes span the early learning journey from pre-toddler years through kindergarten, alongside daycare services. The aim is to provide experiences suited to children’s developmental stages while nurturing confidence, curiosity and a love for learning.\r\nMore Than a Preschool, A Foundation for Life\r\nThe early years are not simply preparation for the next classroom. They are an opportunity to develop the curiosity to explore, the confidence to express oneself, the skills to connect with others, and the values that can guide future choices.\r\nThrough Montessori pedagogy, global early learning practices, Culture Connect and a focus on holistic development, Basil Woods Juniors seeks to make these foundations part of children’s everyday learning experiences.\r\nFor families looking for a preschool in Kharghar that brings together learning, culture, play and care, Basil Woods Juniors offers an approach centred on nurturing the whole child.\r\nBasil Woods Juniors, Timeless Education Rooted in Indian Culture\r\nAbout Basil Woods Juniors\r\nBasil Woods Juniors is an early learning initiative conceived by the team of the Hare Krishna Movement / ISKCON Bangalore group of centres.

Zydus Pinkathon will take place in Mumbai, Kochi, Bengaluru, Hyderabad, Ahmedabad, Delhi, Pune, Kolkata, Guwahati, Jaipur, Chennai and Varanasi. The expansion marks an important milestone in Pinkathon’s larger vision of taking the women’s running movement to 52 cities across India, making fitness, community participation and conversations around women’s health accessible to more women. Recognised as India’s biggest women’s run, Pinkathon brings together women across age groups, backgrounds and abilities on a common platform. The expanded footprint also gives renewed momentum to Zydus’ efforts to promote breast cancer awareness and timely detection through its Easiest Exam campaign.\r\n\r\nWith Mutual Funds Sahi Hai joining as Presenting Partner, the initiative brings financial awareness alongside physical fitness, encouraging women to take charge of their health and financial future.\r\n\r\nBuilding on the momentum of its previous season, which brought together more than 30,000 women across six cities, this year Zydus Pinkathon presented by Mutual Funds Sahi Hai aims to engage 50,000 women through its expanded 12-city calendar in 2026–27.  With running categories ranging from 3 km to 100 km, it offers a unique platform that welcomes women taking their first steps towards fitness as well as experienced runners pushing their endurance limits.\r\nSpeaking at the launch of Zydus Pinkathon, Dr Sharvil Patel, Managing Director, Zydus Lifesciences, said, “Through Zydus Pinkathon and Easiest Exam, our endeavour is to make the conversations about breast self-exam easier to understand and discuss. This would be an important step in driving early detection of breast cancer in India and seeking medical advice without delay. Expanding Zydus Pinkathon to 12 cities gives us an opportunity to take this message further and build on the participation of women and healthcare professionals like oncologists and gynaecologists in the upcoming season.”\r\nMs Meha Patel, Vice Chairperson, Zydus Foundation, said, “Women often make time for everyone around them while putting their own health last. Changing this calls for encouragement at home and support within the community. Zydus Pinkathon creates an occasion for women to come together for themselves, share experiences and speak openly about their well-being. We hope each participant carries that encouragement to a friend, a sister or a mother, helping more women give their health the attention it deserves.”\r\nMr. Venkat N. Chalasani, Chief Executive, AMFI, said, “Through our association with Pinkathon, we aim to encourage women to take an active role in managing their finances and securing their financial future. Just as regular physical activity contributes to long-term health, informed financial decisions and disciplined investing can help build financial resilience and enable women to pursue their long-term goals with confidence.\r\nThis initiative provides a valuable platform to connect women’s physical well-being with financial awareness. At AMFI, we believe that financial inclusion goes beyond access to financial products; it is about equipping women with the knowledge, confidence and opportunity to make informed financial decisions, participate meaningfully in the financial system and work towards greater financial security and independence.”\r\nZydus Pinkathon Presented by Mutual Funds Sahi Hai brings together two important pillars of women’s empowerment: physical and financial wellbeing. With AMFI (Association of Mutual Funds in India) as the presenting partner through its Mutual Funds Sahi Hai initiative, the association seeks to encourage women to take a more proactive approach to their overall wellbeing, including making informed financial choices for a secure future. The partnership reinforces the shared message that empowering women involves supporting their health, confidence and financial awareness.\r\nInclusivity lies at the heart of Zydus Pinkathon. The movement brings together women from diverse backgrounds and abilities, creating a space where every woman can participate in a way that is meaningful to her. The upcoming season will welcome visually impaired women, cancer survivors and cancer warriors, grandmothers and senior women, babywearing mothers, women running in sarees and other traditional attire, as well as first-time runners taking part in an organised running event for the first time. By bringing these diverse groups together, Zydus Pinkathon seeks to challenge perceptions of who can run and create an environment where every woman feels encouraged to take her first step towards fitness. \r\nBringing this spirit of inclusivity and determination to life, the press conference also introduced the inspiring mascots for the Mumbai edition. Each represents a different running category and embodies Zydus Pinkathon’s belief that every woman, irrespective of age, background or ability, can challenge boundaries.\r\nThe mascots include Dr Noureen Hemani, a babywearing mother representing the 10 km category; Deveika Bhojwani, President of World Cancer Initiative and a cancer survivor, representing the 5 km category; Pushpa Nalin Mody, an 83-year-old woman representing the 3 km category; Surjit Kaur, a 76-year-old runner taking on the 50 km category; Suman Rathi, a working professional representing the 75 km category; and Chhonzin Angmo, a visually impaired runner representing the 100 km category.\r\nTogether, their journeys reflect the courage, resilience and determination that define Zydus Pinkathon Presented by Mutual Funds Sahi Hai, inspiring more women to overcome barriers and prioritise their health and fitness.\r\nMilind Soman, Founder, Pinkathon, said, “It is wonderful to have Zydus continue its association with Pinkathon for the second consecutive year. Their continued belief in our vision gives us the confidence to take this movement to more women across the country. I am equally delighted to welcome Mutual Funds Sahi Hai as our Presenting Partner. Physical fitness and financial wellbeing are both important aspects of a woman’s independence and empowerment, and together, we have an opportunity to encourage conversations around both. As we expand from 6 to 12 cities this year, our aim is to inspire 50,000 women to take that first step towards a healthier, more confident future. I look forward to seeing more women join this growing movement.”\r\nIn a significant milestone, Zydus Pinkathon achieved a world record last year for the maximum number of visually impaired girls participating in a running event. This achievement underscores Zydus Pinkathon’s commitment to making running more accessible and ensuring that women with different abilities have the opportunity to participate in and be celebrated by the running community.\r\nPinkathon also features Invincible Women, its women-exclusive ultra-distance running initiative, which offers women the opportunity to push their boundaries and challenge conventional notions of endurance. Positioned as the world’s only women-exclusive ultra-distance run, Invincible Women provides a platform for women to take on extraordinary distances, build resilience and inspire others through their achievements. Alongside its community running categories, Pinkathon offers distances ranging from 3 km to 100 km, making it a unique running event that brings together first-time runners and experienced endurance athletes on the same platform.\r\nMs. Ankita Konwar, Founder of Invincible Women, said, “Invincible Women was born from the belief that women are capable of far more than they often give themselves credit for. Running 50 km, 75 km or even 100 km is not just about physical endurance; it is about overcoming self-doubt, discovering inner strength and redefining what is possible. What makes this journey special is seeing ordinary women, many of whom never imagined running such distances, achieve something extraordinary. Having Zydus support conversations around women’s health and Mutual Funds Sahi Hai encourage financial awareness adds greater meaning to this movement. Both are important in helping women build the confidence to take charge of their lives. I hope more women will challenge themselves, surprise themselves and discover just how invincible they truly are.”\r\nAs part of its nationwide breast cancer awareness initiative, Zydus has partnered with Pinkathon to take the message of women’s health and early detection of breast cancer to a wider audience, encouraging women from diverse backgrounds to embrace fitness and take charge of their wellbeing. Through this association, the two organisations aim to use the power of community participation to make conversations around breast self exam more accessible, encourage timely medical consultation and build sustained awareness beyond the event itself.\r\nThe need for sustained awareness is a pressing need with approximately 2,40,000 new breast cancer cases detected in India in 2025. Against this backdrop, Zydus Pinkathon brings breast self exam into a familiar, supportive community setting, encouraging women to recognise unusual changes, seek medical advice promptly and discuss appropriate screening with healthcare professionals.\r\nThe Mumbai edition of Zydus Pinkathon Presented by Mutual Funds Sahi Hai will feature multiple running categories, including 3 km, 5 km and 10 km, along with ultra-distances of 50 km, 75 km and 100 km, as well as a 100 km relay under the Invincible Women initiative. The new season will welcome first-time participants and experienced runners from diverse backgrounds. From women taking their first steps into running to those challenging themselves over ultra-distances, the event celebrates participation, perseverance and the belief that every woman deserves the opportunity to prioritise her health. By bringing women, doctors, families and communities together, Zydus Pinkathon aims to turn a shared day of running into a lasting commitment to women’s health.\r\nAs part of its ongoing efforts, Zydus continues to drive its The Easiest Exam campaign, built around the message “Do haath, teen minute aur ek easy exam,” to encourage women to prioritise breast self exam, recognise changes, and understand the importance of early detection. The campaign aims to address stigma and dispel myths surrounding breast cancer through awareness initiatives, expert conversations with leading oncologists, podcasts, interactions with breast cancer warriors, and on-ground engagements.\r\nZydus Pinkathon Presented by Mutual Funds Sahi Hai is supported by a strong ecosystem of partners who share its commitment to women’s health, fitness and empowerment. The initiative is led by Zydus Lifesciences as the Title Partner and Mutual Funds Sahi Hai as the Presenting Partner, with support from Lotus Safe Sun (Sunscreen Partner), Milton (Drinkware Partner), Sirona (Hygiene Partner), Tata Copper (Hydration Partner), Anytime Fitness (Official Gym Partner), Purina Pro Plan (Pet Food Partner), H K Vitals (Supplement Partner), Enthusionz (Digital Partner), Maitrayana (Philanthropy Partner). The event is executed by Smiling Tiger Experiences LLP.\r\nZydus Lifesciences Ltd. with an overarching purpose of empowering people with freedom to live healthier and more fulfilled lives, is an innovative, global lifesciences company that discovers, develops, manufactures, and markets a broad range of healthcare therapies.

Brands need to be relevant, reach the right audience and turn attention into outcomes they can measure. That is especially true in hospitality and lifestyle, where customer experience, brand perception and local presence can make or break revenue.\r\nThis business-first thinking drives Flint Marketings, founded by Ayush Madan and Aakash Chauhan. The agency began as a one-person setup and is now a 20+ member team serving hospitality and lifestyle brands. Along the way, it opened its first corporate office and, in a single year, moved offices three times to keep pace with its growth. The founders’ belief is simple: meaningful businesses can start small when vision is matched by consistency and execution.\r\nToday, Flint brings strategy, creativity, content, performance marketing, digital and print media, and AI technology under one roof.\r\nBeyond Visibility\r\nMany agencies sell reach, engagement and impressions. Flint starts somewhere else: with the client’s business.\r\nInstead of treating marketing as content creation or ad buying, the team first looks for opportunities, then builds market presence and expands the brand’s footprint through integrated digital and print solutions.\r\nIts deep hospitality experience is a real advantage. Customer behaviour, location, seasonality, experience and perception all shape revenue in this sector, and Flint pairs that understanding with creative thinking, technology and performance-led execution. Every campaign is tied to measurable objectives.\r\nThe philosophy is straightforward: build visibility, create demand, help businesses grow.\r\nMarketing That Shows Up in the Numbers\r\nFlint’s client work reflects that approach:\r\n\r\nNew outlet launches: Integrated strategies combining social media, influencer marketing, performance campaigns and promotional communication. The aim is not just pre-launch buzz but awareness that turns into footfall and traction from day one.\r\nDestination properties: Targeted campaigns around weddings, villas and MICE, focused on qualified enquiries that connect marketing activity to real revenue opportunities.\r\nBrand positioning and expansion: Stronger digital presence, premium brand communication and structured marketing frameworks that help hospitality brands move into new properties, locations and markets.\r\n\r\nAcross all of it, the focus stays the same: reach the right audience, strengthen visibility and open doors for growth.\r\nWhere Technology Meets Creativity\r\nAs marketing becomes more data-driven, Flint is building AI and technology into its core capabilities. Combining human creativity with performance marketing and data lets the agency build marketing ecosystems rather than one-off campaigns. That matters for businesses that must build their brand and hit commercial targets at the same time.\r\nFor Flint, technology is a means, not the goal. It helps brands understand markets, communicate better and make smarter growth decisions.\r\nThe Road Ahead: From Agency to Growth Partner\r\nThe founders’ ambition goes beyond running another agency. Over the next two to five years, Flint plans to deepen its capabilities across digital, print, performance marketing, AI, technology and data-driven solutions, while expanding from hospitality and lifestyle into other high-growth sectors.\r\nThe long-term goal is to become a growth partner: a team that works alongside businesses as they build visibility, enter new markets, win new customers and create lasting value. As brands demand more accountability from their marketing spend, agencies must move beyond delivering campaigns and align themselves with the businesses they serve. Flint is building itself around that idea.\r\nIts journey from a one-person setup to a 20+ member team shows what focused execution can achieve. But the bigger story is the ambition behind it: to help businesses expand, build stronger brands, and create sustainable value.\r\nFor Flint Marketings, the destination is clear. Help businesses grow. Help them expand. Help build brands that last.\r\nIf you object to the content of this press release, please notify us at pr.error.rectification@gmail.com.

Asansol","articleBody":"New Delhi [India], October 22: Apollo Micro Systems Limited is pleased to inform its shareholders that IDL Explosives Limited, a group company, has commissioned the Bolkunda Silo Unit, a new bulk explosives silo plant with a capacity of 9,000 MT, spread over 8.4 acres of land near Asansol, West Bengal.\r\nThe facility was formally inaugurated on 22 October 2026 by Sri Baddam Karunakar Reddy, Founder and Managing Director, Apollo Group, in the presence of senior leadership of the Apollo Group and IDL Explosives Limited, and stands dedicated to operational excellence.\r\nThe inauguration was followed by a tree plantation at the unit by the Managing Director and the leadership team, reflecting the Apollo Group’s commitment to green and responsible operations.\r\nLocated in the heart of the Eastern Coal Belt and the Central Coal Belt, the Bolkunda Silo Unit positions IDL to serve the mining operations of Eastern Coalfields Limited, Central Coalfields Limited and other customers in the region with site-mixed bulk explosives, produced and delivered safely at the mine head.\r\nSilos based infrastructure enables just-in-time conversion of emulsion matrix into explosives at the point of use, reducing the transport of finished explosives and raising safety across the supply chain.\r\nThe new plant expands IDL’s national network of bulk explosives plants and silos, and strengthens the company’s capacity to service the long-term bulk explosives orders secured from Coal India subsidiaries earlier this year.\r\nIt marks another firm step in the Apollo Group’s energetics growth plan, taking IDL closer to its customers and reinforcing the group’s commitment of total solutions under one roof.\r\nWhy It Matters\r\nIn the bulk explosives business, silos are installed close to mining sites and hold emulsion matrix that becomes an explosive only at the point of use.\r\nEvery new silo unit therefore adds revenue-generating delivery capacity, deepens integration with the customer’s mining operations and improves safety.\r\nThe 9,000 MT Bolkunda Silo Unit takes IDL’s delivery infrastructure deeper into one of India’s most important coalfields.\r\nAbout IDL Explosives Limited\r\nIDL Explosives Limited is the energetics platform of the Apollo Group and one of India’s oldest names in commercial explosives, with manufacturing plants and a nationwide network of bulk explosives silos serving the country’s largest mining customers.\r\nIts products span packaged and bulk explosives for mining and infrastructure, and the company anchors the Apollo Group’s growth plans in defence energetics.\r\nAbout Apollo Micro Systems Limited\r\nApollo Micro Systems Limited (NSE: APOLLO | BSE: 540879) is a Hyderabad-headquartered developer and manufacturer of mission-critical defence electronics and electro-mechanical solutions for Land, Air, Sea and Space applications, serving DRDO, the Indian Armed Forces and Defence PSUs.\r\nTogether with its group company IDL Explosives Limited, the Apollo Group is building sovereign Indian capability across weapon electronics, complete weapon systems and defence energetics:total solutions under one roof.","articleSection":"Business","datePublished":"2026-10-22T14:52:32+0530","dateModified":"2026-10-22T16:21:17+0530","inLanguage":"en-us","author":{"@type":"Person","name":"PNN","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com/user/pnnindia"},"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Marudhara

The platform allows architects, interior designers, furniture vendors and homeowners to upload a photograph or capture a space in real time, and visualise how different materials could look within furniture and interior applications, and explore Response Fabrics textiles and Leatherite finishes.\r\nMegha Agarwal, Response Fabrics, says, “Over the years, we realised that swatches alone are not enough to visualise the look of the space. As AI advanced, we decided to use this technology to allow users to play around with multiple swatches and find their desired look in less than a few minutes.” The platform allows you to use multiple fabric options within the same image. For e.g. if an image has a bed, sofa and a chair, the user can assign different swatches to different furniture pieces and see the space change with their choice of fabric in just a few clicks.\r\nUsers can compare finishes, create project selections, estimate material quantities, and order physical swatches through the same platform: moving from inspiration to specification without navigating multiple channels.\r\nAI fabric visualiser: https://responsefabrics.com\r\nFrom Swatch to Space\r\nThe Visualizer addresses a familiar challenge in material selection: a physical swatch shows a fabric in isolation, but not how it will work within an actual space. By introducing context earlier in the selection process, the platform enables users to assess colour and finish within furniture and interior settings and narrow their choices before requesting physical samples.\r\n“The objective is not to replace physical sampling, but to make the process more efficient by eliminating unnecessary rounds of selection before a swatch is required,” explains Megha.\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nAbout Response Fabrics\r\nFounded in 2004 by Anuj Agarwal to address the gap in India’s upholstery market, Response Fabrics was built around upholstery, leatherite and performance materials for corporate, commercial and hospitality applications. Based in Ghaziabad, Uttar Pradesh and operating its own manufacturing facility, the company produces around 30,000 metres of material per day, with three main product divisions: fabrics, leatherite and custom prints. Response Fabrics is an ISO 9001-certified manufacturer and has more than 700 stock SKUs across 40-plus collections. Its range includes crepes, poly-recycled cotton, mesh, jacquard, jute, knitted and printed fabrics, polyester leatherite, suedes, and PP spun-bond non-woven fabrics.\r\nThe brand offers bespoke custom fabrics, creating signature prints and logo fabrics. This covers design, sampling, and production, an end-to-end approach that transforms initial concepts into finished fabric tailored to each client’s specifications.\r\nProducts &amp;amp; Manufacturing\r\nThe brand’s product range includes fire-retardant, water-repellent, stain-repellent, anti-static, and antimicrobial finishes, as well as biodegradable options. The objective is to manufacture in India rather than depend on international suppliers for a varied range of performance fabrics.\r\nDirect manufacturing remains central to Response Fabrics’ business model. The company works directly with architects, interior designers, furniture manufacturers, OEMs, corporate clients and hospitality businesses. This allows them to operate on a zero-minimum-order model and provide 48–72-hour delivery across India. They have sales executives in Delhi NCR, Mumbai, Bengaluru, Hyderabad and Kolkata, supported by pan-India logistics.\r\nFor the client, this means that requirements relating to colour, quantity, performance, application and customisation can be discussed directly with the manufacturer. For Response Fabrics, it also provides a direct feedback loop between the market and product development.\r\nFor press enquiries, contact:Sharvari Joshi, Eztablish Designsharvari@eztablish.com+91 8291074745\r\nIf you object to the content of this press release, please notify us at pr.error.rectification@gmail.com.

Organised by the Shri Adarsh Ramleela Mahotsav Samiti, which has continued the tradition of Ramleela since 1964, and produced by Divinity Productions, this year’s Mahotsav emerged as a significant milestone in the festival’s journey, receiving an enthusiastic response from audiences across generations.\r\n \r\nThe committee expressed its happiness over the successful conclusion of the 10-day Mahotsav, sharing that people participated enthusiastically, appreciated the performances and enjoyed the overall experience. The festival brought families, devotees, children and young audiences together to celebrate the timeless values of the Ramayan through devotion, theatre, music and cultural activities. The successful edition also reaffirmed the committee’s commitment to preserving Mumbai’s cultural and religious heritage while making the traditional Ramleela relevant and engaging for the younger generation.\r\nThe grand finale on October 20, celebrated on the occasion of Vijayadashami, marked the culmination of the festivities with a series of devotional rituals and powerful theatrical presentations. The evening began with the divine Saryu Aarti, followed by the Ram Seva Samman, recognising contributions towards the spirit of service and devotion. The audience then witnessed captivating Ramleela sequences depicting Ahiravana Vadha and Panchamukhi Hanuman, bringing the epic’s enduring message of courage, faith and the triumph of good over evil to life.\r\nOne of the most anticipated moments of the evening was the grand Ravan effigy burning, symbolising the victory of Dharma over Adharma. The celebrations continued with soulful live Ram Bhajans by Vrindavan Echoes Band, followed by the auspicious Shri Ram Rajya Abhishek, bringing the Mahotsav to a spiritually uplifting conclusion.\r\nThis year’s Mahotsav presented the traditional Ramkatha on an expansive theatrical scale, combining its devotional essence with contemporary stagecraft and technology. The production featured more than 50 artists, an impressive 72-foot-wide LED stage backdrop spanning an overall area of 1,200 square feet, elaborate sets, traditional costumes, advanced lighting and sound, and specially designed musical arrangements. A 1,500-seat covered German-hangar auditorium offered audiences a comfortable and immersive setting to experience the performances.\r\nBeyond the stage, the 10-day celebration featured a distinctive Experience Corner, offering Holographic Ram Darshan, VR Dham Darshan, a Ramayan Wisdom Gallery, interactions with Ramayan characters, a selfie point and an Ayurvedic Medical Camp. These attractions added an interactive dimension to the festival, encouraging visitors, particularly children and young people, to engage with the Ramayan and its teachings in new ways.\r\nThe Mahotsav’s creative and organisational leadership brought together Director and Writer Yogesh V. Pagare, Music Director Monty Sharma, Secretary and Trustee Kanbihari Agarwal, President and Trustee Rajendra Agarwal, and Trustee and Treasurer Vaibhav Gupta. While Divinity Productions presented the theatrical Ramleela, the Shri Adarsh Ramleela Mahotsav Samiti organised and conducted the overall Mahotsav, including religious rituals, cultural activities, audience facilities and event management.\r\nSharing their collective thoughts on the successful conclusion of the Mahotsav, Secretary and Trustee Kanbihari Agarwal, President and Trustee Rajendra Agarwal, and Trustee and Treasurer Vaibhav Gupta said in a joint statement, “The successful completion of Adarsh Ramleela Mahotsav 2026 is a proud and emotional moment for all of us. The love, enthusiasm and participation of people throughout these 10 days have made this edition truly special. It was heartening to see families, children, young people and senior citizens come together to witness Ramleela, participate in the celebrations and appreciate the cultural and spiritual experiences we had created. Our vision was to preserve the sanctity of this age-old tradition while presenting it on a grander theatrical platform that could connect with today’s generation. The response we received encourages us to continue this journey with even greater dedication. We extend our heartfelt gratitude to our artists, musicians, production team, volunteers, supporters and every member of the audience who contributed to making this milestone edition a success. Since 1964, Adarsh Ramleela has been an integral part of Mumbai’s cultural heritage, and we remain committed to carrying this legacy forward for generations to come.”\r\n \r\nDirector and Writer Yogesh V.

Job postings for content-creation roles in India spanning influencers, video producers, and social-media marketers, grew 919% between 2020 and early 2026, according to a report by Indeed. That&#039;s pushed creator-related roles from roughly 1 in every 1,000 marketing job postings to nearly 1 in every 100.\r\nA few numbers explain what&#039;s driving that curve:\r\n\r\n\r\nIndia&#039;s influencer marketing industry is projected to reach ₹4,500–5,000 crore by 2027, per Kofluence&#039;s Decoding Influence report, a measure of how much brands are now willing to spend on creator-led reach.\r\n\r\n\r\nNearly 60% of creator-economy hiring now sits outside traditional &quot;influencer&quot; roles, spanning video production, community management, and content operations, the back-office roles that show up once an industry stops being informal.\r\n\r\n\r\nRoles are moving in-house. Brands are increasingly hiring creators onto payroll instead of booking them freelance for one-off campaigns, which comes with the accountability and consistency expected of any in-house production team.\r\n\r\n\r\nHow did the content creator equipment access in India evolve? \r\nCamera and lighting gear is more affordable today than it&#039;s ever been, so the constraint isn&#039;t cost in the abstract, it&#039;s getting the right equipment and backdrops consistently, wherever in the country a creator is based. That access gap shows up clearly in what creators are searching for: &quot;best studio lights for beginners,&quot; &quot;affordable backdrop stands,&quot; and &quot;home studio setup on a budget&quot; are reportedly among the most common queries from Indian creators right now.\r\nPart of why that gap persists is that the equipment side of this industry is still genuinely fragmented, no dominant retailer, mostly unbranded regional listings on marketplaces and local manufacturers, and studio-rental options that thin out fast past the top metro cities. It&#039;s the kind of gap that favours whichever company can turn &quot;available in India&quot; into &quot;available at a creator&#039;s door, wherever that door is.&quot;\r\nHow This Platform Is Changing India&#039;s Creator Economy\r\nStudioBackdrops is one of the companies building against that gap, and its own growth traces the shape of the problem it&#039;s solving. What started in 2016 as a catalogue of roughly 150 items has grown into more than 6,500 SKUs, delivered through a network that reaches well past the metros. \r\nWhat they offer:\r\n\r\n\r\nGlobal brands like Godox and SYNCO gear cutting import delays and duties.\r\n\r\n\r\nIn-house brands like Baroque Studio, AriesX, Backdrops4ever, and Indus deliver quality backdrops and lighting at competitive prices.\r\n\r\n\r\nNationwide delivery: Ships to 20,000+ PIN codes, including Tier 2/3 towns and remote areas, so professional gear reaches creators at their door.\r\n\r\n\r\nThe Growth of the Content Creator Industry and StudioBackdrops’ Vision\r\nAs the content creator industry is growing at a fast pace, every person does not think of it as a hobby or doing something with their time but leveraging social media to create a money stream and StudioBackdrops sees this growth, and they have always been at the front to bridge every gap. The company&#039;s newest move is to layer education on top of the catalogue and delivery network it&#039;s already built. SBD Creators, its structured mentorship initiative, covers equipment selection, lighting, and workflow for creators regardless of follower count, with regional-language content already live and a target of onboarding 100 creators across all 28 states by the end of 2026.\r\n&quot;India&#039;s creator economy is growing fast and reliable access to the right gear is one of the things that growth depends on,&quot;said Archisman Misra, Founder and CEO ofStudioBackdrops. &quot;We&#039;ve spent close to a decade investing in that, catalogue, manufacturing, distribution, and now, through SBD Creators, we&#039;re investing in the know-how alongside it. We see ourselves as one part of an industry that&#039;s still being built, and we want to keep growing with it.&quot;\r\nThat&#039;s the bet: an industry growing at 919% doesn&#039;t run on ambition alone, it runs on sustained investment in gear, supply chains, and delivery networks, from the companies willing to build alongside it. StudioBackdrops isn&#039;t the only one making that bet, but its trajectory over the past decade is a useful picture of what it actually takes.","articleSection":"Business","datePublished":"2026-10-22T12:46:24+0530","dateModified":"2026-10-22T12:48:54+0530","inLanguage":"en-us","author":{"@type":"Person","name":"Correspondent Desk","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com/user/marudharabharti"},"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Marudhara Bharti English","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com/uploads/logo/logo_6ab9270c36c334-01124948.png"}},"image":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhNEPGqMT1n-OOMiSV13opDAsxmz_75CndmP0IL0LWP9PAo6hFuftmzP0akLIcXM8KzjsV0JDMPPGbMjBgWWo0FtC3YspkyNDOY6SAZ-5-bxovWZDSHTzx3NKTnWSvLgGzr1Nz7j0kbuIrGwVtKXG-R9pTY4YFKkirMyHhyphenhyphenSBV-lilDRPHwUziFBlWEbf7_/w1600/PNN-2026-10-21T153920.468%20(2).jpg","contentUrl":"https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhNEPGqMT1n-OOMiSV13opDAsxmz_75CndmP0IL0LWP9PAo6hFuftmzP0akLIcXM8KzjsV0JDMPPGbMjBgWWo0FtC3YspkyNDOY6SAZ-5-bxovWZDSHTzx3NKTnWSvLgGzr1Nz7j0kbuIrGwVtKXG-R9pTY4YFKkirMyHhyphenhyphenSBV-lilDRPHwUziFBlWEbf7_/w1600/PNN-2026-10-21T153920.468%20(2).jpg"},"keywords":["919","Growth","","4","500","Crore","Market:","Why","StudioBackdrops","Betting","Infrastructure"]}</script>

While the initial boom was defined by massive ground-mounted solar parks, the current wave of growth is far more diversified. The market is rapidly expanding into rooftop installations, commercial and industrial (C&amp;amp;I) projects, hybrid setups, battery energy storage systems (BESS), and decentralized off-grid applications.\r\nOfficial data from the Ministry of New and Renewable Energy (MNRE) highlights this momentum: India’s cumulative solar capacity reached 168.04 GW as of August 31, 2026. This breakdown includes 123.99 GW of ground-mounted projects, 32.59 GW of grid-connected rooftop solar, 4.83 GW in hybrid projects, and 6.63 GW of off-grid capacity. Between April and August 2026 alone, the country added 17.78 GW, proving that execution pace remains high across the board.\r\nRooftop Solar Emerges as a Core Engine\r\nOnce a secondary segment, rooftop solar has turned into a major growth driver for renewable EPC providers, propelled by aggressive residential and industrial adoption.\r\nPolicy backing under the “PM Surya Ghar: Muft Bijli Yojana” has added significant momentum. As of July 2026, nearly 39.72 lakh rooftop systems covering 48.03 lakh households have been deployed. With an overarching target of 75 lakh households, the program opens up a multi-year pipeline for regional EPC players and distributed-energy specialists. This shift is also encouraging flexible deployment formats, including RESCO and utility-led aggregation models backed by easier financing terms.\r\nSolar EPC Market Expands Across Applications\r\nAs India’s solar capacity expands, the opportunity for EPC companies is increasingly moving beyond conventional large-scale solar parks. Projects now require greater capabilities across engineering, procurement, construction, grid connectivity, commissioning, energy storage and long-term operations and maintenance.\r\nThe Solar Energy Corporation of India (SECI) continues to issue tenders for large solar projects as well as solar-plus-storage developments. Recent tenders include 700 MW of ISTS-connected solar PV projects, alongside projects integrating solar generation with battery energy storage.\r\nThe changing project landscape indicates that the solar EPC industry is transitioning towards more integrated solutions where execution capability, project management, procurement efficiency and long-term asset performance are becoming increasingly important.\r\nEnergy Storage Adds a New Dimension to Solar Growth\r\nWith solar generation concentrated during daylight hours, battery energy storage is becoming increasingly important for balancing generation and demand.\r\nSECI has been progressing standalone battery energy storage as well as solar-plus-BESS projects, including a recently tendered 70 MW solar PV project paired with 25 MW/50 MWh of battery energy storage in Andhra Pradesh.\r\nThe increasing adoption of storage is expected to create new opportunities for EPC companies capable of integrating solar generation, battery systems, power management and grid infrastructure into a single project solution.\r\nDecentralised Solar Solutions Expand the Addressable Market\r\nThe growth opportunity is also extending into decentralised applications such as solar street lighting, solar home and utility solutions, solar water-management systems, solar pumps and other off-grid renewable-energy applications.\r\nThese solutions can play an important role in rural and semi-urban areas, where decentralised systems can address lighting, water and energy requirements while reducing dependence on conventional grid infrastructure.\r\nThis segment is expected to gain further momentum as governments, municipalities, institutions and private consumers increasingly focus on energy efficiency and clean-energy adoption.\r\nTrom Industries Strengthens Position in India’s Solar EPC Ecosystem\r\nAgainst this rapidly expanding sector backdrop, Trom Industries Limited has established a growing presence in India’s solar EPC market, with project execution and operations spanning multiple regions and applications.\r\nThe company has deployed more than 100 MW of high-efficiency solar modules and has executed over 60 MW of solar EPC projects, demonstrating its execution capabilities across the solar value chain.\r\nTrom Industries is providing reliable and efficient O&amp;amp;M services, ensuring smooth project operations while strengthening long-term customer relationships.\r\nThe company has achieved more than 540 MW of total commissioned capacity across India, reflecting its expanding footprint in the country’s renewable-energy infrastructure.\r\nTrom Industries also maintains a strong presence across Gujarat and Maharashtra, two important markets for India’s distributed and commercial solar ecosystem.\r\nRooftop Solar Orders Under PM Surya Ghar Strengthen Growth Visibility\r\nThe rapid growth of India’s rooftop solar market is also reflected in Trom Industries’ recent business momentum.\r\nThe company has secured multiple rooftop solar orders aggregating 42 MW under the PM Surya Ghar Yojana, positioning it to participate in one of India’s most rapidly expanding distributed-solar programmes.\r\nThe rooftop opportunity is particularly significant because the market combines government policy support with growing consumer demand, creating a sizable pipeline for qualified EPC companies with installation and execution capabilities.\r\nBusiness Scale and Order Book Reflect Strong Project Momentum\r\nTrom Industries has also crossed ₹100 crore in revenue, marking an important milestone in its growth trajectory.\r\nThe company currently holds a robust order book exceeding ₹200 crore, providing visibility over future project execution and reflecting continued demand for its solar EPC and related renewable-energy solutions.\r\nThe combination of a strong order pipeline, completed installations, O&amp;amp;M contracts and participation in the PM Surya Ghar programme provides the company with exposure to multiple segments of India’s expanding solar ecosystem.\r\nDomestic Manufacturing and Supply-Chain Development\r\nIndia is simultaneously strengthening its domestic solar manufacturing ecosystem. The government’s Approved List of Models and Manufacturers (ALMM), domestic-content requirements and continuing investment in module and cell manufacturing are supporting the development of a more integrated domestic value chain.\r\nFor EPC companies, this environment places greater emphasis on procurement planning, supply-chain management, product quality, compliance and execution efficiency.\r\nNew Opportunities in Agrivoltaics and Renewable Infrastructure\r\nEmerging applications such as Agrivoltaics or Agri-PV, which combine agricultural activity with solar generation, are also attracting greater attention.\r\nSECI has recently invited proposals for pilot Agri-PV projects, highlighting the industry’s search for innovative models to utilise land efficiently while increasing renewable-energy generation.\r\nAt the same time, increasing electricity demand, growing renewable penetration and the need for reliable peak power are expected to support investment across solar generation, transmission, energy storage and distributed renewable-energy infrastructure.\r\nOutlook\r\nIndia’s solar market is consequently moving from a phase focused primarily on adding generation capacity to one centred around integrated, reliable and flexible renewable-energy solutions.\r\nThe opportunity is expanding across utility-scale solar, rooftop systems, C&amp;amp;I projects, solar-plus-storage, hybrid renewable projects, solar street lighting, solar home and utility solutions, solar water management and other decentralised applications.\r\nWith India’s solar capacity already exceeding 168 GW, continued rooftop adoption, a growing energy-storage pipeline and strong policy support, the structural growth opportunity for the solar EPC industry remains significant.\r\nIf you object to the content of this press release, please notify us at pr.error.rectification@gmail.com.

The series highlighted the growing interest among Indian family offices, wealth managers and professional investors in accessing global private markets through globally regulated investment structures.\r\nHeld across Kolkata, Bengaluru, New Delhi and Mumbai from October 13 to 16, the invite- only series focused on international portfolio diversification, private equity, venture capital, private credit and opportunities in high-growth companies before public listings. The discussions come as India expanding private wealth base drives interest in global alternative investments. Preqin forecasts that global alternative assets under management will reach $32 trillion by 2030.\r\nA central theme was the need to move beyond conventional domestic investment portfolios towards geographically diversified allocations. The discussions examined the role of institutional research, investment structuring and due diligence in evaluating global private-market opportunities, alongside risks related to valuations, currency movements, liquidity and exits.\r\nThe series also explored regulatory pathways for overseas investments, including India &amp;amp; Liberalised Remittance Scheme and GIFT City &amp;amp; International Financial Services Centre, and the importance of aligning investment structures with applicable regulations and investor eligibility.\r\nSpeaking on the discussion Mr. Saikat Kumar, Managing Partner &amp;amp; CEO, DIP Market, Board Member, Red Lions Capital said “As Indian wealth grows, the conversation is shifting from domestic portfolio expansion to global asset allocation. Investors are looking for differentiated opportunities, but access alone is not enough. Institutional research, appropriate investment structures and disciplined execution will be critical to building sustainable international exposure.”\r\nMr. Deepankar Panigrahi, Head of Global Private Equity at a Sovereign Wealth Fund, GCC said; “Private equity has been a key part of the asset allocation for institutional investors the last few years and now increasingly for family offices and HNIs. Events like Knowledge series help bridge the gap in investor understanding and give them the confidence to take the leap.”\r\nMs. Gayatri Sarkar, CEO, .Advaita Capital, USA said “India will drive roughly 17% of global GDP growth this year, yet attracted only $36B in PE-VC in 2025, making it ONE OF THE MOST the most under-capitalized growth engine in the world for the physical AI and sovereign infrastructure stack. In my view, the gap between India macroeconomic growth and the pace of private capital formation is worth close attention. DIP knowledge series will be the inflection point to bring attention to areas such as energy, compute, and physical infrastructure may present long-term opportunities for disciplined, research-driven investors.”\r\nRed Lions Capital provides global investment research, sourcing and private-market expertise, with a presence in Abu Dhabi Global Market. DIP Market operates an India-facing business-to-business platform connecting wealth management partners with international investment opportunities.\r\nThe companies aim to combine global investment capabilities with local distribution relationships to support Indian investors exploring international private-market allocations\r\nIf you object to the content of this press release, please notify us at pr.error.rectification@gmail.com.

The expansion will mark a significant scale-up of Domicil Sleep’s physical presence in India as it looks to establish the brand across key consumption markets.\r\nIndia’s mattress market is currently estimated at around US$3 billion, with the category expected to grow at approximately 8-9% annually over the next three to five years. Within this, the premium mattress and sleep-solutions segment is estimated to account for around 20% of the market, supported by rising consumer interest in better sleep, comfort and overall lifestyle.\r\n\r\nDomicil Sleep believes the category is still at an early stage of evolution, with significant scope to educate consumers and shift perceptions of sleep beyond a mere mattress purchase towards a more holistic part of everyday wellbeing. As wellness becomes a larger part of lifestyle choices, the company sees an opportunity to drive greater awareness while addressing a gap in India’s organised retail landscape, where the premium segment remains relatively underdeveloped between mass-market offerings and luxury propositions. This creates room for a differentiated retail proposition built around the broader bedroom experience, bringing together comfort, design and lifestyle.\r\n“India’s sleep category is at an interesting inflection point, with consumers becoming increasingly conscious of how the quality of their sleep influences their overall lifestyle. But the category continues to be approached largely through the lens of the mattress. At Domicil Sleep, we see an opportunity to broaden that perspective by bringing together the mattress, bed, pillow, recliner and other elements of the bedroom as part of one integrated sleep solution. We are currently the only brand in this category approaching sleep as a complete solution rather than as a single-product purchase,” said Manoj Nair, Country Head – India, Middle East &amp;amp; Africa, HTL Group.\r\nThis proposition is reflected in Domicil Sleep’s experience-store format. Its Bengaluru and Chennai outlets bring together premium mattresses with upholstered beds, ergonomic pillows, bedroom recliners and lounge furniture, allowing consumers to explore these products within a complete bedroom setting rather than as standalone purchases.\r\nThe format is also beginning to generate a favourable consumer response, with the company seeing enquiries around the differentiation of its mattress technologies and the overall retail experience. Domicil Sleep has also observed an increase in referral-led customers, indicating growing interest in its proposition among consumers who have experienced the products firsthand.\r\nBeyond its current portfolio, Domicil Sleep will continue to explore new products, comfort technologies and innovations as consumer expectations around sleep evolve. The company sees the next phase of the category being shaped by increasingly discerning consumers seeking greater personalisation, comfort and functionality, and aims to bring its German engineering and heritage to this evolving market through products designed around the changing needs of Indian consumers.\r\nVisit: https://domicilindia.com/\r\nIf you object to the content of this press release, please notify us at pr.error.rectification@gmail.com.

It says it has now helped recover more than ₹150 crore.\r\nPune (Maharashtra) [India], October 21: Most financial firms compete for fresh money. Clearclaim Ventures Pvt. Ltd. works with money that already exists but has lost track of its owner. The Pune company helps investors and families recover old shares, unclaimed dividends and related assets, and it has built that work into a business with a defined set of services, three co-founders and a client base it puts in the hundreds.\r\nA market created by unclaimed dividends\r\nThe opportunity comes from how Indian company law treats dormant holdings. Under Section 124(6) of the Companies Act, 2013, shares on which dividends stay unpaid or unclaimed for seven consecutive years must be transferred by the company to the Investor Education and Protection Fund (IEPF), which the Central Government established. The holdings are not lost for good. Any person whose shares or dividends have been transferred can apply to the IEPF Authority through the online Form IEPF-5, and the application is then verified with the company concerned.\r\nThe pool is large. Business Today reported in April 2026 that nearly ₹2.2 lakh crore of unclaimed financial assets sits across banks, provident funds, insurers and market investments as of December 2025, including ₹89,004 crore in equity shares and dividends held by the IEPF Authority. A second report in the same publication counted those shares across 1,671 companies.\r\nClaiming is mostly a documentation exercise. The work can involve tracing shareholder records, establishing succession, completing paperwork and, in many cases, converting paper shares into demat form before an IEPF claim is filed. That is the gap Clearclaim has chosen to fill.\r\nSeven services, one common thread\r\nThe company’s profile lists seven services: recovery of old shares and dividends, IEPF claims, duplicate certificates for lost or forgotten shares, transfer of shares after a shareholder’s death, conversion of physical shares to demat form, provident fund transfers, withdrawals and claims, and nominee claims on bank accounts, lockers, mutual funds and insurance. Each deals with an asset that its owner, or the owner’s family, can no longer easily reach.\r\nLeadership and structure\r\nShrikant Pandore, co-founder and chief executive, sets the company’s strategic direction and oversees its operations and resources. Co-founder and chief operating officer Hardik Manek heads the operations team and handles the day-to-day processing of claims.\r\nThe profile also names a qualified team of twenty-five professionals and an advisory group drawn from accounting, law, banking, investing and technology.\r\n“Our goal is to take a very complicated process and make it simple for investors,” Shrikant says.\r\nMr. Hardik Manek Co- Founder of Clearclaim describes the operating priority in similar terms. “Our focus is on customer success,” he says. “Maintaining transparency and efficiency builds trust with clients who come to us after years of confusion and frustration.”\r\nThe company says it uses artificial intelligence across claim processing, gives clients a written service agreement on stamp paper and offers a full refund if a claim is not settled. These are the company’s own descriptions of its terms.\r\nScale and results\r\nThe company’s 2024 profile reported work with more than 300 companies, more than 500 clients and more than 1,000 DEMAT and IEPF claims filed, with over ₹50 crore of shares and dividends recovered. In a statement issued in September 2026, Pandore said the firm had assisted 1250+ of clients and helped recover more than ₹150 crore. Both sets of figures come from the company.\r\nWhat comes next\r\nClearclaim says it documents each recovery from start to finish and runs awareness work on the fraud risks that surround unclaimed assets.

For Ajeet Singh, the path from a small village in Alwar, Rajasthan, to building a premium fitness and wellness business in Gurugram has been defined by professional reinvention, calculated risks and an evolving understanding of what consumers expect from modern businesses.\r\nBorn in 1992, Singh grew up studying in government schools before pursuing a degree in Computer Science engineering. In 2012, he began his career as a software developer with a monthly salary of ₹5,500. It was his first step into the professional world, but not the final destination.\r\nHis interest in building something of his own soon took him beyond conventional employment. He started a small IT company and later explored hospitality through Plattos Air Bar in Vasant Kunj, Delhi. Each experience exposed him to a different side of entrepreneurship, helping him understand the importance of execution, customer expectations and the ability to adapt.\r\nIn 2022, Singh channelled his entrepreneurial experience into a new venture: 7 Ocean: The Fitness Club. Starting with a facility on MG Road, he set out to create a fitness destination that could offer more than the conventional gym experience.\r\nThe idea was grounded in an observation about consumer behaviour. Fitness memberships may begin with ambitious expectations, but the environment, service and overall experience ultimately influence whether people remain engaged with their routines. Singh saw an opportunity to build a brand where the experience itself could become a reason for members to return.\r\nThat philosophy has shaped 7 Ocean&#039;s development as a premium fitness and wellness destination. In 2026, the brand expanded into Sector 61, Gurugram, marking a new phase in its growth and its ambition to establish a wider presence across Delhi-NCR.\r\nFor Singh, the long-term opportunity lies in the convergence of fitness, wellness and longevity. He sees potential in a model that makes wellbeing a more engaging part of everyday life, supported by an environment where members feel comfortable, motivated and connected.\r\nThe journey so far has also been one of learning across industries. His background in technology and hospitality, along with his wider business interests, has given him exposure to different approaches to problem-solving and customer experience.\r\nYet the larger ambition goes beyond individual facilities. Singh aims to develop 7 Ocean into a more comprehensive wellness ecosystem, responding to consumers who increasingly view fitness as part of a broader lifestyle rather than an occasional activity.\r\nHis story is a reminder that entrepreneurial growth is not always determined by where someone begins. It can also be shaped by the ability to recognise opportunities, move beyond familiar territory and turn experience into a new direction.\r\nFor Ajeet Singh, the next chapter is about building on that foundation—and continuing to develop a business around the idea that better wellbeing should be accessible through a more considered everyday experience.\r\nAbout Ajeet Singh and 7 Ocean\r\nAjeet Singh is an entrepreneur and the founder of 7 Ocean: The Fitness Club, established in 2022. The brand operates in the premium fitness and wellness space, with a presence on MG Road and in Sector 61, Gurugram, and a vision to bring fitness, wellness and lifestyle together.","articleSection":"Business","datePublished":"2026-10-21T13:42:20+0530","dateModified":"2026-10-21T14:11:05+0530","inLanguage":"en-us","author":{"@type":"Person","name":"Correspondent Desk","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com/user/marudharabharti"},"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Marudhara Bharti English","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com/uploads/logo/logo_6ab9270c36c334-01124948.png"}},"image":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhnJbsgRw7c3vohmj0SigfSuec1e-tGji4ppcE6hi9mrBzKzNFf5jdZNX0WYbqvY-75nOvYP87bSPp-N0UrcIQfYWBZJaa_ihWEODzsH9beeOviEOBn0dqhcx2jsZnh2JS6o4-IfC1A4j0GTeEayh3rkYgQBA5tIFRwQpXHbVBQ2tc-iEx2FcqcCmwGYCjW/w1600/PNN-2026-10-20T151947.326%20(1).jpg","contentUrl":"https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhnJbsgRw7c3vohmj0SigfSuec1e-tGji4ppcE6hi9mrBzKzNFf5jdZNX0WYbqvY-75nOvYP87bSPp-N0UrcIQfYWBZJaa_ihWEODzsH9beeOviEOBn0dqhcx2jsZnh2JS6o4-IfC1A4j0GTeEayh3rkYgQBA5tIFRwQpXHbVBQ2tc-iEx2FcqcCmwGYCjW/w1600/PNN-2026-10-20T151947.326%20(1).jpg"},"keywords":["Building","Beyond","Boundaries:","Ajeet","Singh’s","Journey","with","Ocean"]}</script>

His professional journey reflects a broader entrepreneurial outlook—one shaped by technology, customer experience, digital business opportunities, and investments across sectors.\r\nSingh’s journey began in Rajasthan, where he grew up in a small village in Alwar and studied in government schools before earning a B.Tech in Computer Science. He entered the professional world in 2012 as a software developer, earning ₹5,500 per month. What followed was a gradual transition from employment to entrepreneurship, driven by a willingness to explore new industries and learn through experience.\r\nHis early ventures included a small IT company and an entry into hospitality through Plattos Air Bar in Vasant Kunj, Delhi. These experiences introduced him to different aspects of business building, from technology and operational problem-solving to customer engagement and service delivery.\r\nToday, Singh’s business interests extend across fitness and wellness, digital marketing, and real estate investment. While each sector operates differently, they represent complementary areas of opportunity for an entrepreneur interested in understanding changing consumer behaviour, emerging markets and long-term business value.\r\nHis flagship fitness venture, 7 Ocean: The Fitness Club, was launched in 2022 on MG Road. The brand was developed around the idea that fitness should be experienced as part of a broader lifestyle rather than treated as a standalone activity.

The manufacturer could supply only two, forcing the dealer to source the third from another supplier. This meant managing two invoices, two deliveries and two separate points of contact in case of any issue. The dealer was not being difficult; this was simply how India’s architectural hardware trade had traditionally operated. For decades, the fragmented nature of the industry was accepted as a normal part of doing business.\r\nHowever, this presents a significant opportunity for change. India’s market for hinges, bolts, latches and door fittings is growing, estimated at approximately US$3.96 billion in 2026 by Mordor Intelligence and projected to reach US$6.31 billion by 2031. Much of the market continues to be served by small manufacturers specialising in a limited number of products and catering to specific regions. While these businesses are efficient within their niches, buyers are often left to coordinate multiple suppliers. For a builder fitting out hundreds of apartments, managing procurement across several hardware vendors adds unnecessary complexity.\r\nRecognising this gap, the company adopted a strategy focused on product range rather than concentrating on volume in a single category. It developed nine product categories, with more than 150 specifications, sizes and finishes within each, manufactured at its facility in Shapar and marketed under its own brand rather than through job-work arrangements for other labels.\r\nThis approach, however, comes with its own challenges. Job work can generate relatively immediate revenue, whereas building a brand requires sustained investment in marketing, product development and inventory. Instead of focusing on a few fast-moving products, the company must maintain stock across a wider assortment while also managing returns and distribution requirements.\r\nWorking capital remains a critical consideration. The business typically maintains around one-and-a-half to two months of inventory and extends credit of up to 45 days to distributors. Over the last three years, its EBITDA margin has remained largely within the 15–16% range, standing at 14.25% in FY26, while revenue grew 72% to ₹70.09 crore. Although a broader product range does not necessarily translate into higher profitability per rupee, it can strengthen customer relationships and make the company more difficult to replace. Customers accustomed to sourcing a comprehensive range from one supplier would need to return to coordinating with multiple vendors if they switched.\r\nRecent regulatory developments are also reshaping the industry. Since 1 July 2025, hinges manufactured, sold, imported or stocked in India have been subject to the applicable BIS marking requirements under a Quality Control Order issued by the Department for Promotion of Industry and Internal Trade (DPIIT) in March 2025. The government has also introduced a minimum import price for certain imported cabinet hinges. While such measures can increase compliance costs, they may also strengthen the importance of product testing, documentation and traceability. Manufacturers that have already invested in quality systems could be better positioned as compliance becomes an increasingly important part of the market.\r\nRegulatory compliance presents challenges for smaller manufacturers, who must invest in testing, certification and documentation. Improved access to working capital and compliance support from banks and industry associations will be crucial to help these businesses meet quality standards and sustain growth.\r\nThis is a broader challenge facing manufacturers across India’s architectural hardware industry. The opportunity often lies in fulfilling existing demand rather than creating an entirely new market. The company currently has orders exceeding its manufacturing capacity, prompting investment in new machinery and plans to expand vertically at its existing 12,632-square-foot facility. The key challenge is financing the period between purchasing raw materials, manufacturing products, expanding the product range and receiving payments from customers.\r\nIndia has a strong metalworking base, particularly in Rajkot, but the opportunity lies in building trusted brands with a comprehensive product range.

Forty-six sit with startups and MSMEs, and thirty more with early-stage startups. Every one needs recorded Indian material to train on, and most of it has never been collected.\r\nThe models the mission has already delivered include text-to-speech in Bengali, Gujarati, Kannada, and Malayalam, which is the half of the problem that speaks. Compute was the expensive problem. Data is the slow one.\r\nWhere the funding meets the recording gap\r\nA model carries the market it was recorded in. Trained on quiet rooms and one language per sentence, it meets India and misses:\r\n\r\nA support call that names the merchant in English, the installment in Marathi, and the amount in Hindi.\r\nA kirana shelf stacked with regional packaging no global dataset has ever photographed.\r\nA handwritten ledger in a script the model has never been shown.\r\nA pack label in Malayalam, sitting next to one in Hindi.\r\n\r\nBoards are asking for AI results, and technical teams are already building. This is the wall they hit, and the cost is countable: repeat calls, escalations to a human, and a pilot that never leaves the demo.\r\nOn request, not off the shelf\r\nTwo things trade under the one name:\r\n\r\nOff the shelf. A finished file, assembled once and sold to whoever buys it next.\r\nOn request. Recorded in a written brief, in named districts, by people paid to supply it.\r\n\r\nOff-the-shelf files were assembled for someone else’s brief. Projects that need named districts and languages need the second kind.\r\nThat is the work Rwazi does. Rwazi collects real-world AI training data on request, project by project, through a network of real people across 190+ countries who agreed to share what they record. The same network is how an Indian team reaches a market outside India without rebuilding collection for it.\r\n\r\nAll nine types, collected on request\r\nOne Indian project usually crosses several of these, and a single brief can carry all nine.\r\n\r\nAudio and speech. Support calls and read speech with transcripts. Text-to-speech Hindi is solved; a voice bot that listens across accents and code-mixed sentences still needs a speech dataset recorded here.\r\nVideo. A video dataset shot rather than scraped, including first-person capture for robotics.\r\nImage. An image dataset captured on request. Most computer vision projects in India stall here: packaging, signage, storefronts, and handwriting.\r\nText. Written in the Indian language in the script people actually use, mixed-script included.\r\nMobile sensor. Location, motion, and device signals contributed from handsets at district resolution.\r\nMultimodal data. Two or more recorded together and aligned, for models that read context.\r\nConsumer data. What people bought, where, and what they chose instead, below the metro boundary.\r\nRetail shelf. Shelf photography from real stores for pricing, availability, and planogram work.\r\nMedical. Packaging, labels, and pack imagery, where medical AI in India runs shortest.\r\n\r\nSend a brief, and get recorded data back\r\nBefore any contract is signed:\r\n\r\nWhat to send. Type, languages, districts, volume, and date. Or the single line that matters most: what the model keeps getting wrong and where.\r\nWhat comes back. A sample recorded by contributors in the markets the brief names, not an extract from a catalogue.\r\nWhat it costs. No fee for the sample, and no agreement is signed first.\r\nWhere it goes.Rwazi’s AI datasets team.\r\n\r\nHow the data collection runs\r\n\r\nAgreement. A master service agreement and a statement of work lock the brief.\r\nSamples. Recorded against it and checked before anything scales.\r\nScale. Raw phone capture and studio-grade capture run on the same rails, so one project can ask for both.\r\n\r\nNothing is inferred. Every recording is supplied by the person who made it.\r\n“A model that fails in a district town fails for everyone who lives there,” said Joseph Rutakangwa, CEO, Rwazi. “The recording has to happen where the customer is, in the language the customer uses.”\r\nWhat this decides\r\nIndia’s AI money is already committed. The 190 approved projects will be judged on whether their models work in the districts their customers live in, rather than in a demonstration, and that comes down to what was recorded, in which languages, and under which conditions. The computer arrived first. The data decides what it produces.","articleSection":"Business","datePublished":"2026-10-20T08:07:16+0530","dateModified":"2026-10-20T08:07:57+0530","inLanguage":"en-us","author":{"@type":"Person","name":"PNN","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com/user/pnnindia"},"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Marudhara Bharti English","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com/uploads/logo/logo_6ab9270c36c334-01124948.png"}},"image":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://pnndigital.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/10/PNN-2026-10-19T171430.029-1024x576-1.jpg","contentUrl":"https://pnndigital.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/10/PNN-2026-10-19T171430.029-1024x576-1.jpg"},"keywords":["What","India’s","190","projects","still","need"]}</script>

The platform also caters to mothers through maternity wear and care products, alongside gifting options and features designed to simplify product discovery and shopping for parents and caregivers.\r\nCommenting on the launch, Avinash Kumar Singh, Director, ENS Enterprises Limited, said, “Running Zuniar lets us experience the open network as an operator, not only as a technology provider. The lessons we learn about network participation, seller onboarding, logistics and fulfilment on ONDC will directly inform the solutions we build for our partners and clients.”\r\nBuilt on ONDC, Zuniar operates within an open digital commerce ecosystem designed to enable interoperability among participating buyer and seller applications. The network provides a framework for businesses of different sizes to participate in digital commerce, creating opportunities to expand market access and connect consumers with a wider range of products and sellers.\r\nFor ENS, Zuniar represents a broader shift in how the company participates in the digital commerce value chain. Traditionally focused on enabling businesses through technology, integrations and digital solutions, ENS is now extending its role into the operational side of commerce. This includes direct experience in marketplace management, seller onboarding, catalogue management, logistics coordination, fulfilment and customer support, alongside the broader customer experience.\r\nThe transition reflects ENS’s approach to working as an operating partner rather than a technology vendor alone. Following its IPO, ENS Enterprises is entering a new phase of growth, with an expanded focus on moving beyond technology delivery to a more active role in business operations. The launch of Zuniar aligns with this transition, allowing the company to bring its technology expertise into the execution of a live digital commerce business. By combining technology, operational execution and first-hand marketplace experience, ENS aims to broaden its engagement across the digital commerce lifecycle and strengthen the solutions it offers to businesses navigating an increasingly complex digital ecosystem.\r\nZuniar is available at www.zuniar.com.","articleSection":"Business","datePublished":"2026-10-19T16:03:50+0530","dateModified":"2026-10-19T16:08:30+0530","inLanguage":"en-us","author":{"@type":"Person","name":"PNN","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com/user/pnnindia"},"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Marudhara Bharti English","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com/uploads/logo/logo_6ab9270c36c334-01124948.png"}},"image":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://pnndigital.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/10/PNN-108.jpg","contentUrl":"https://pnndigital.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/10/PNN-108.jpg"},"keywords":["ENS Enterprises","Zuniar","Digital Commerce Operating Partner"]}</script>

A Top 5 finalist of Season 3 of Marvelous Mrs India World, Sabharwal has been selected to represent India at Mrs Universe 2026 in Sri Lanka, where she will begin her international pageant journey on October 17.\r\nBased in Chandigarh, Sabharwal is an entrepreneur, image consultant, style coach and soft skills trainer. She is also the co-founder of Artiquette Finishing and Grooming School. At Marvelous Mrs India World Season 3, she earned a place among the Top 5 finalists and received the special title of Marvelous Glowing Skin.\r\nA wife, mother of two and businesswoman, Sabharwal’s selection highlights a growing conversation around women pursuing personal ambitions alongside family responsibilities and professional commitments. Her international debut is also an opportunity to carry her experience, identity and aspirations onto a global platform.\r\n“My journey has taught me that it is never too late to rediscover yourself and pursue your dreams. I hope my journey encourages women to believe in themselves, reclaim their dreams and step confidently into their next chapter,” says Sabharwal.\r\nFounded by Dr Aditi Govitrikar, India’s first Mrs World, Marvelous Mrs India World was created to provide married women of Indian origin with a platform to explore their potential, build confidence and pursue opportunities beyond traditional expectations. The platform places emphasis on personal transformation, individuality and self-belief, with the aim of opening doors to opportunities on national and international stages.\r\nDr Govitrikar, a doctor, actor and model, made history with her Mrs World title in 2001. Through Marvelous Mrs India World, she continues to champion the idea that a woman’s ambitions need not be defined by her age, appearance or stage of life.\r\n“Twinkle’s journey reflects the spirit of Marvelous Mrs India World — a platform where women are encouraged to recognise their potential, step beyond their comfort zones and pursue opportunities they may once have thought were out of reach,” says Dr Govitrikar.\r\nAs Sabharwal prepares to leave for Sri Lanka, her selection represents the next chapter in a journey shaped by entrepreneurship, personal growth and the courage to embrace new possibilities. For women who have put their own aspirations on hold while fulfilling multiple roles, her story offers a timely reminder: it is never too late to begin again.","articleSection":"Lifestyle","datePublished":"2026-10-17T19:17:30+0530","dateModified":"2026-10-17T19:18:10+0530","inLanguage":"en-us","author":{"@type":"Person","name":"Correspondent Desk","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com/user/marudharabharti"},"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Marudhara Bharti English","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com/uploads/logo/logo_6ab9270c36c334-01124948.png"}},"image":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh0il3AGefwlfE1VY8Y5Y2YSRzHCeMSFcct3C0Ae4Imd4gq5Nw0CCkBhEbpTniqkK716luOK0KgCEPeg-cJTniwUxGE4UH9Yy2I17cH0uCopU0exxG3FxihgZia7G4UgdI2RlBnamu5VSWak-6cIdUfrqTXGdnRe-YDtSaJBJoY7zX7lz1LPS8HErpH-ki7/w1600/PNN-2026-10-17T102416.109-1%20(1).jpg","contentUrl":"https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh0il3AGefwlfE1VY8Y5Y2YSRzHCeMSFcct3C0Ae4Imd4gq5Nw0CCkBhEbpTniqkK716luOK0KgCEPeg-cJTniwUxGE4UH9Yy2I17cH0uCopU0exxG3FxihgZia7G4UgdI2RlBnamu5VSWak-6cIdUfrqTXGdnRe-YDtSaJBJoY7zX7lz1LPS8HErpH-ki7/w1600/PNN-2026-10-17T102416.109-1%20(1).jpg"},"keywords":["Twinkle","Sabharwal","heads","Sri","Lanka","for","Mrs","Universe","2026"]}</script>

Cyril Amarchand Mangaldas has adopted tools such as Harvey and Lucio, Trilegal has partnered with Lucio, and Shardul Amarchand Mangaldas is among the firms working with Harvey.\r\nThe market is growing too. According to Grand View Research, India’s legal AI market was valued at approximately $29.5 million in 2024 and is expected to reach $106.3 million by 2030.\r\nWhile large law firms are investing in specialised legal AI platforms, many independent lawyers and smaller firms still depend on general-purpose AI tools for drafting, research and document review. These tools are not always built for legal work. Incorrect formatting, unreliable citations and AI-generated errors can make their outputs difficult to trust without extensive checking.\r\nThat is the gap VakilPlus wants to address.\r\nThe new AI-powered legal platform with an India first outlook is being developed to make drafting, reviewing and redlining documents easier for lawyers, whether they work independently, in a small chamber or as part of a larger firm.\r\nTaking the effort out of drafting and redlining\r\nAnyone who has worked on a commercial agreement knows that writing the first draft is only the beginning.\r\nA client asks for changes. The other party sends back a revised version. A clause needs to be rewritten, another needs to be negotiated, and the document goes through yet another round of review.\r\nLawyers can spend hours working through these changes, particularly when dealing with multiple agreements at the same time.\r\nVakilPlus is being built by HouseofTech to help with this part of legal work.\r\nThe platform aims to assist lawyers in preparing drafts, reviewing contracts, identifying clauses that need attention and suggesting alternative wording. It also supports legal research, allowing lawyers to look up relevant laws and judgments when needed.\r\nThe emphasis is on drafting and redlining, where a considerable amount of work goes into preparing documents, checking changes and refining language.\r\nThe lawyer still makes the decisions. VakilPlus is intended to make the process of getting to those decisions less time-consuming.\r\n5000 lawyers have already signed up\r\nEven before its official launch, VakilPlus has received more than 5000 sign-ups from lawyers.\r\nThe early response is encouraging for a product entering a market where legal AI is still finding its place in everyday practice.\r\n“A lot of our time goes into drafting agreements, reviewing clauses and making changes to documents. We have started experimenting with AI tools, but the problem is that most of them are not built for Indian legal practice. You still have to spend considerable time checking the format, verifying references and correcting errors. A tool designed specifically for lawyers could make a real difference to how we work,” said Advocate Hemant Jain.\r\nFor a solo practitioner, reviewing a lengthy agreement may mean working through every clause personally. A small firm might have only a handful of associates handling multiple matters. Corporate legal teams have their own challenges, with contracts arriving regularly from vendors, customers and business partners.\r\nAll of them could benefit from tools that reduce the time spent preparing and reviewing documents.\r\nVakilPlus is looking to make those tools accessible to a much wider group of legal professionals, rather than limiting them to firms with large technology budgets.\r\nA different kind of support for lawyers\r\nThere is also a practical limit to what AI should do in legal work.\r\nA contract is not simply a collection of clauses. The wording can affect a client’s rights, liabilities and commercial interests. A suggested change may look reasonable but still be unsuitable for a particular transaction.\r\nLawyers need to make those calls themselves.\r\nVakilPlus is being developed with that in mind. AI can assist with drafts, suggest edits and help review documents, but the final responsibility remains with the legal professional.\r\nAs more Indian law firms begin using AI, the question is no longer whether the technology has a place in legal practice. It is how widely that technology can be made available, and whether it solves problems lawyers face every day.\r\nFor VakilPlus, the starting point is a familiar one: the hours spent between receiving a document and getting it ready for signature.\r\nIf you object to the content of this press release, please notify us at pr.error.rectification@gmail.com.

Today the company celebrated its 20th anniversary of pioneering and delivering a clean, solar power revolution for India.\r\nBengaluru (Karnataka) [India], October 17:  When Orb Energy began its journey in Bengaluru in 2006, solar power was a very different proposition. Solar panels cost around 40 times more than they do today, making solar largely relevant only for off-grid applications (e.g., remote power and backup power). Virtually no solar power was connected to the grid at the time.\r\nWhen the company launched, it had a very straightforward mission: to make solar accessible, affordable and hassle-free for customers in semi-urban and rural areas who were experiencing severe power shortages and desperately looking for a better energy alternative. To reach these markets, Orb Energy built a branch network that, at its peak, reached 170 branches across five states in South India.\r\nAs solar costs fell dramatically following the 2008 financial crisis and state governments began introducing net-metering policies, grid-connected solar became a more viable proposition. This was when Orb began moving towards the SME rooftop solar market for grid-connected solar applications.\r\n\r\nBy 2017, Orb Energy had established its own solar panel manufacturing facility in Bengaluru, strengthening its ability to control product quality and deliver integrated solar solutions. By bringing together manufacturing, system design, installation and after-sales service under one roof, the company developed a vertically integrated model that resonated with SME customers, many of whom recognised the value of this approach from their own businesses.\r\nFurthermore, recognising that many banks had yet to appreciate the growth potential of rooftop solar in India, Orb Energy launched its own in-house credit facility, enabling SMEs to adopt solar without collateral or a down payment. This approach helped businesses consider solar as a manageable investment rather than a substantial upfront expense. Cumulative disbursements through the company’s solar finance facility have so far reached close to ₹350 crore.\r\nOrb’s model also attracted institutional backing. In 2019, Shell acquired a 20% stake in Orb Energy to support the expansion of solar adoption among small and medium-sized enterprises. In 2022, the US International Development Finance Corporation extended a US$20 million loan to support the company’s in-house credit facility for SMEs.\r\nTwenty years after its founding on Gandhi Jayanti in 2006, Orb Energy has grown into a business with around 450 MW of installed solar PV capacity, over 175,000 systems and 95,000 customers served across India. In 2025, Orb Energy was ranked among India’s top three rooftop solar companies, according to JMK Research &amp;amp; Analytics. Over the past six years, the company has typically ranked among India’s top five rooftop solar companies, according to JMK Research &amp;amp; Analytics and CRISIL.\r\nDamian Miller, CEO and Co-Founder of Orb Energy, said: “As we look back on 20 years, what stands out is the trust our customers have placed in us and the commitment of our employees and partners who work every day to deliver on that trust. This milestone belongs to our customers, partners and the entire Orb Energy team, whose support and commitment have shaped our journey.”\r\nAs Orb Energy enters its third decade, it aims to exceed 1 GW of installed solar capacity by 2030. Its focus remains true to its founding mission: making solar power more accessible, affordable and hassle-free for customers looking for a better energy alternative.\r\nMedia contact:  Shalini D S,  7892920971, shalini.ds@orbenergy.com\r\n","articleSection":"Business","datePublished":"2026-10-17T19:17:21+0530","dateModified":"2026-10-17T19:21:32+0530","inLanguage":"en-us","author":{"@type":"Person","name":"PNN","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com/user/pnnindia"},"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Marudhara Bharti English","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com/uploads/logo/logo_6ab9270c36c334-01124948.png"}},"image":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://pnndigital.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/10/PNN-2026-10-17T171054.017.jpg","contentUrl":"https://pnndigital.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/10/PNN-2026-10-17T171054.017.jpg"},"keywords":["India’s Solar Revolution","Orb Energy"]}</script>

The launch marked a significant step towards building a platform that empowers talented players, removes financial barriers and creates opportunities for them to progress to higher levels of cricket.\r\nThe grand launch was attended by former Indian cricketer and former BCCI Chief Selector Chetan Sharma, STCL Brand Ambassador and international wrestler Sangram Singh, former Indian cricketer and STCL Mentor Ashok Malhotra, producer Vinod Bachchan and several prominent personalities from the entertainment and sports industries. The event brought together cricketing experience and celebrity participation to spotlight the league’s mission of identifying and supporting deserving grassroots talent.\r\n \r\nAdding star power to the initiative, the league’s celebrity team owners were also associated with the launch. Prab Gerewal represents Punjab, Neelam Giri represents Uttar Pradesh, actress Ashnoor Kaur represents Mumbai, Alankrita Sahai represents Delhi, Steffy Patel represents Tamil Nadu, Kashika Kapoor represents Rajasthan, Sana Sultan represents Haryana and Diljott represents Gujarat. Producer Vinod Bachchan and director Neeraj Pathak were also among the prominent personalities associated with the event.\r\nThe league’s leadership comprises Rajesh Jha, Chairman; Ravi Chikara, Vice Chairman; and Mukesh Singh, Director. Chetan Sharma serves as League Commissioner, while Ashok Malhotra, former Indian cricketer and former Chairman of the BCCI Cricket Advisory Committee (CAC), serves as Mentor. Their experience and guidance are expected to play an important role in shaping the league’s sporting vision and development.\r\nSpeaking at the launch, Chetan Sharma, former Indian cricketer, former BCCI Chief Selector and League Commissioner of STCL, said, “India has no shortage of cricketing talent. From small towns to villages and local grounds, there are countless young players who dream of representing their country and making a mark in the game. However, many of them do not get the right opportunities because of financial constraints or a lack of exposure. STCL is an encouraging initiative because it aims to bring such talent into the spotlight and give deserving players a chance to prove themselves. When we create the right environment and provide players with the necessary facilities, guidance and competitive exposure, we give their talent a genuine opportunity to flourish. I am proud to be associated with a platform that places merit and potential at the forefront.”\r\n \r\nIn a joint statement, Rajesh Jha (Chairman), Ravi Chikara (Vice Chairman), Mukesh Singh (Director) and Ashok Malhotra (Mentor) said, “The unveiling of the official trophy and jersey is an important milestone in the journey of the Salute Tiranga Cricket League. For us, STCL is not just about organising a cricket competition; it is about creating opportunities for talented players who often remain unnoticed despite their dedication and ability. We strongly believe that financial limitations should not stand in the way of a cricketer’s dreams. Our aim is to provide deserving players with the facilities, support, guidance and competitive exposure they need to take their game forward. With the support of our cricketing leadership, brand ambassador and celebrity team owners, we hope to build a strong platform that recognises grassroots talent and helps aspiring cricketers move closer to their goals.”\r\nConceptualised by a group of passionate cricketers and social activists, STCL seeks to provide a genuine platform for talented grassroots-level players above the age of 16 who have limited access to conventional cricketing opportunities. The league aims to address one of the key challenges faced by aspiring cricketers: the financial burden associated with tournament participation, league fees, travel and accommodation.\r\nUnder its proposed support structure, selected players will receive free accommodation, meals, transportation, travel and match fees throughout the league. By providing these essential facilities, STCL aims to create a professional and supportive environment where players can focus on their performance, develop their skills and compete for opportunities to advance in the sport.\r\nThe association of experienced cricketers such as Chetan Sharma and Ashok Malhotra further reinforces the league’s emphasis on sporting guidance and talent development. Meanwhile, the participation of Sangram Singh as Brand Ambassador and the celebrity team owners is expected to bring greater visibility to the initiative and encourage wider engagement with grassroots cricket.\r\nWith its official trophy and jersey unveiled, the Salute Tiranga Cricket League has taken an important step towards bringing emerging talent, sporting expertise and public participation together under one platform. Its central mission remains clear: to ensure that deserving cricketers receive the opportunity, support and exposure they need to pursue their dreams, irrespective of their financial background.\r\n ","articleSection":"Business","datePublished":"2026-10-17T15:19:03+0530","dateModified":"2026-10-17T15:19:46+0530","inLanguage":"en-us","author":{"@type":"Person","name":"Correspondent Desk","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com/user/marudharabharti"},"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Marudhara Bharti English","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com/uploads/logo/logo_6ab9270c36c334-01124948.png"}},"image":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhAFCgW6BbOVSJQVmZGY0P5G5eTjpsQUDY50u-JomymU7TEgF71r9qrdxoFeCc2cJ8duQ3bTyozWqnl6fQyf45Ondl4-QUdaV6bxi2_QQKh4vAzuvnKH_FgIRJ-H7NfSOzvV9fX4NqUIXJh_OkdhBIQozy6YDT_PKbH3rFDy1c2QBssYHgsiA1XSitefyqC/w1600/image.jpeg","contentUrl":"https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhAFCgW6BbOVSJQVmZGY0P5G5eTjpsQUDY50u-JomymU7TEgF71r9qrdxoFeCc2cJ8duQ3bTyozWqnl6fQyf45Ondl4-QUdaV6bxi2_QQKh4vAzuvnKH_FgIRJ-H7NfSOzvV9fX4NqUIXJh_OkdhBIQozy6YDT_PKbH3rFDy1c2QBssYHgsiA1XSitefyqC/w1600/image.jpeg"},"keywords":["Chetan","Sharma","","along","with","Bollywood","Stars","Come","Together","for","Salute","Tiranga","Cricket","League"]}</script>

The revision follows several months during which restaurants absorbed higher expenses to limit the impact on customers.\r\nAHAR President Shri Vijay K Shetty said, “For the city’s restaurant sector, the challenge extends beyond the price of any single commodity. Cooking fuel, everyday ingredients, commercial rents, employee wages and transportation have become more expensive. With these costs rising together, establishments face growing pressure on the margins that support daily operations.”\r\nRecent reports illustrate the pressure on everyday kitchen essentials. Consumer Affairs Department data reported year-on-year price increases of nearly 113% for onions, approximately 22% for sugar and 18% for sunflower oil. Separately, local market coverage reported retail increases of Rs 20 to Rs 30 per kg for major pulses across the Mumbai Metropolitan Region in recent weeks. For restaurants purchasing these ingredients daily, such increases affect preparation costs across a wide range of dishes.\r\nBeyond ingredient prices, AHAR reported a 100% increase in commercial LPG cylinder prices, sharply raising kitchen fuel expenses. Higher milk and dairy prices have added to the cost of core menu items. Wages and workforce expenses have also risen as restaurants support staff facing higher living costs, while increasing commercial rents have added to fixed overheads and squeezed operating margins\r\nAHAR said the proposed adjustment reflects the cumulative burden of higher procurement and operating expenses. Even where individual ingredient prices stabilise or ease temporarily, restaurants continue to carry higher recurring costs. The cost of a meal includes the people who prepare and serve it, the premises in which it is served, and the hygiene, maintenance and utilities required to keep a kitchen functioning consistently.\r\nThe association emphasised that the revision is intended to recover a portion of the additional expenditure while maintaining food quality and service standards. Continuing to absorb the full increase, it said, has become increasingly difficult for operators.\r\nAffordability remains an important consideration in a city where restaurants serve both occasional diners and customers who rely on them for everyday meals. AHAR acknowledged that any menu adjustment affects household spending, making it necessary to balance customer expectations with the practical requirements of running a viable establishment.\r\nThe forthcoming revision reflects that balance: preserving the standards customers expect while allowing restaurants to meet their operating commitments and retain the staff on whom service depends.\r\nRevised prices are expected to be introduced progressively over the coming weeks across dine-in, quick-service and delivery menus. AHAR’s position is that a measured adjustment has become necessary to sustain dependable restaurant service in Mumbai as the underlying cost of providing it continues to rise.","articleSection":"Business","datePublished":"2026-10-16T19:33:42+0530","dateModified":"2026-10-16T19:41:24+0530","inLanguage":"en-us","author":{"@type":"Person","name":"PNN","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com/user/pnnindia"},"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Marudhara Bharti English","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com/uploads/logo/logo_6ab9270c36c334-01124948.png"}},"image":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://pnndigital.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/10/PNN-2026-10-16T110403.525-1024x576-1.jpg","contentUrl":"https://pnndigital.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/10/PNN-2026-10-16T110403.525-1024x576-1.jpg"},"keywords":["AHAR","Announces","Mumbai’s","Dining","Bills","Set","Rise"]}</script>

The company, which sells solar solutions under the UTL Solar and Fujiyama Solar brands, commissioned a 2 GW power electronics plant in Ratlam, Madhya Pradesh, in August 2026.\r\nThe facility manufactures solar inverters, UPS systems and related products, taking Fujiyama’s total power electronics manufacturing capacity to approximately 4.2 GW. This represents more than seven times the 567 MW capacity recorded in March 2023.\r\nEngineering-led growth\r\nThe business began in 1996 with the establishment of UTL Electronics by Pawan Kumar Garg and Yogesh Dua to manufacture power backup products. Fujiyama Power Systems Ltd was incorporated in 2017. In 2000, the company developed what it describes as India’s first single-card surface-mount technology (SMT)-based inverter, followed by innovations in UPS systems and solar power conditioning units (PCUs). It entered solar PCU manufacturing in 2012.\r\nThe company’s engineering-led approach continues to underpin its product development, supported by 60+ R&amp;amp;D engineers and scientists at its Delhi facility.\r\nScaling up manufacturing\r\nThe Ratlam complex also houses a 2 GW solar panel line. Next in the expansion plan are lithium-ion battery capacity of 3 GWh and solar cell manufacturing of 1.2 GW, extending the company’s reach across the rooftop solar value chain.\r\nFujiyama makes the key inverter components in-house, including transformers, inductors, heat sinks, metal cabinets and circuit boards. This gives it tighter control over design, quality and cost, and less dependence on imported inverter kits.\r\nInnovation at the core\r\nFujiyama sold 4.5 lakh inverters in FY26 and 1.4 million units over the past five financial years, primarily serving customers in tier-2 and tier-3 markets. Its product portfolio spans off-grid inverters from 0.6 kVA to 20 kVA, on-grid inverters from 1 kW to 136 kW, hybrid inverters up to 50 kVA and online UPS systems up to 120 kVA.\r\nFujiyama holds five patents, including one for its rMPPT solar technology, with four more awaiting grant. Its in-house R&amp;amp;D team of 60+ engineers drives product development, supported by a direct feedback loop from over 900 trained service engineers across 25 states. This field input keeps product design anchored to customer needs and real-world performance.\r\n“We started as a power electronics company, and the inverter is still the heart of what we do. In 2000 we built India’s first single-card SMT inverter. Today our inverters power rooftop solar systems across the country. With Ratlam, our power electronics capacity has grown more than seven times in about three years, to 4.2 GW a year.\r\nOur strategy is simple: design in-house, make in India and reach the customer directly. More than 1.4 million families, mostly in tier-2 and tier-3 towns, already rely on our inverters. As PM Surya Ghar takes rooftop solar to millions of homes, we want that demand to be met with Indian-designed, Indian-made products,” said Pawan Kumar Garg, Chairman and Joint Managing Director, Fujiyama Power Systems Ltd.\r\nPositioning for the next phase\r\nIn FY26, revenue increased 72.3% to ₹2,654.5 crore, while net profit rose 94.5% to ₹304.1 crore. As of June 30, 2026, the company had more than 10,100 channel partners, supporting its reach across residential and small-business markets. It also exports to 10 countries.\r\nThe company’s growth comes amid the expansion of India’s rooftop solar sector. The PM Surya Ghar: Muft Bijli Yojana is supporting residential solar adoption, creating opportunities for domestic manufacturers of inverters, panels and associated equipment. Fujiyama is an empanelled national supplier under the programme.\r\nAs demand for rooftop solar solutions grows, the company’s focus on in-house engineering, domestic manufacturing and distribution reach will shape its efforts to expand in the inverter segment and strengthen its position across India’s wider clean energy market.\r\nAbout Fujiyama Power Systems Ltd\r\nWith business roots dating back to 1996, Fujiyama Power Systems Ltd was incorporated in 2017 and is an Indian power electronics and energy solutions company operating under the UTL Solar and Fujiyama Solar brands.

Aspiri approaches this familiar material from a more modern perspective, exploring how its natural character can translate into designs that feel expressive, effortless, and personal.\r\nAt the heart of the collection is a simple thought: you can grow up without growing out of yourself.\r\nGrowing up brings confidence, independence, and new experiences, but it does not erase the qualities that once defined us. The curiosity, spontaneity, joy, and freedom of self-expression which was there as girls continue to shape the women they have now become.\r\nThe collection reflects this idea through its design language. Structured forms bring a sense of confidence, while softer silhouettes retain the natural delicacy of pearls. Playful details and contemporary compositions add a sense of movement and individuality. Together, these elements create jewelry that does not ask a woman to choose between sophistication and spontaneity, maturity and playfulness, or the woman she is and the girl she once was.\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nSpeaking on the launch of the campaign, Vishal Dholiya, Founder &amp;amp; Managing Director, Aspiri, commented, “Growing up doesn’t mean leaving the girl within behind. We wanted our designs to capture that continuity — the softness of pearls, the confidence of modern forms, and the playful spirit that remains a part of every woman.”\r\nThe campaign also focuses on making pearls relevant beyond traditional occasions. Aspiri positions the collection for everyday moments, from a coffee run and a day at work to dinner with friends or an unplanned evening out. The collection includes pieces such as loop earrings, collar necklace sets, loop drop earrings, designer necklaces, and drop pendants.\r\nWith ‘Pearls for the Girl Within You’, Aspiri uses the pearl to connect with a more personal and contemporary idea of identity, while positioning the collection for everyday wear.\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nAbout Aspiri\r\nAspiri is the retail arm of Hastmilap Pvt. Ltd., created with the vision of bringing a fresh, youthful, and contemporary jewelry experience to today’s style-conscious generation. The brand specializes in fashion-forward jewelry crafted in gold vermeil on silver, lab-grown diamonds, and natural diamonds, offering designs that complement everyday style, celebrations, and modern lifestyles.\r\nBacked by Hastmilap’s expertise in jewelry manufacturing, Aspiri combines craftsmanship, innovation, and trend-driven design to make premium jewelry experiences more accessible. With a focus on curated collections and franchise-led expansion, Aspiri is building a retail ecosystem that connects customers and entrepreneurs with a new-age jewelry brand.","articleSection":"Business","datePublished":"2026-10-16T19:33:42+0530","dateModified":"2026-10-16T19:44:41+0530","inLanguage":"en-us","author":{"@type":"Person","name":"PNN","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com/user/pnnindia"},"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Marudhara Bharti English","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com/uploads/logo/logo_6ab9270c36c334-01124948.png"}},"image":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://pnndigital.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/10/PNN-2026-10-16T163026.804.jpg","contentUrl":"https://pnndigital.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/10/PNN-2026-10-16T163026.804.jpg"},"keywords":["Aspiri","‘Pearls for the Girl Within You’","New Collection"]}</script>

I see India and Australia contributing meaningfully towards India’s goal for Viksit Bharat 2047.”\r\nMukund Narayanamurti, Minister (Commercial), General Manager and Head of Austrade South Asia, added, “Deakin has rendered significant contribution to bilateral cooperation and there cannot be a more impactful partner to Deakin than CII. The work of CII and Deakin aligns with a lot of our objectives such as advancing workforce capabilities, graduate readiness with a lens on enhancing employability.”\r\nExpressing her thoughts on these key initiatives, Ravneet Pawha, Vice President (Global Engagement) and CEO (South Asia), Deakin University, said,“The future of work will be shaped by collaboration. Through our partnerships with LinkedIn and CII, we are creating meaningful pathways that connect learning with opportunity and prepare learners to thrive in a changing world.”\r\n“I am truly optimistic about the far-reaching impact that can be created through these partnerships and look forward to young students and professionals taking advantage of this.”\r\nTogether, the partnerships with LinkedIn and CII demonstrate Deakin’s multi-dimensional approach to future-of-work readiness: connecting students with professional networks and workforce insights while advancing structured, industry-aligned skills development through institutional collaboration.\r\nAs AI, digital technologies and changing workforce expectations reshape employment, collaboration between universities, industry bodies and professional platforms is increasingly important to ensure that education remains relevant to emerging opportunities.

Ltd. (“Truevis”), a manufacturer and provider of advanced diagnostic and healthcare technologies, today welcomed the West Bengal government’s allocation of 50 acres in Haldia for its proposed medical equipment manufacturing plant. The allocation aligns with the state government’s forthcoming industrial policy, expected to be announced after Diwali. With a planned investment of ₹500 crore, the facility will beTruevis’ second manufacturing base in India and its first in eastern India.\r\nTruevis foresees business of more than ₹1,000 croreper year within five years of commissioning, with the new base helping it serve customers more efficiently, reduce import dependence for select product categories and support long-term expansion in India’s healthcare equipment sector.\r\nThe allocation was announced by Chief Minister Shri Suvendu Adhikari at Haldia on Wednesday, 14 October, during the inauguration of AdPerMa Private Limited’s ₹6,000-crore integrated phenol and acetone complex. He also announced further investments of ₹10,000 crore for the port town and said a new industrial policy covering incentives, land allocation and power tariffs would be unveiled before Diwali.\r\nCommenting on the land allocation, Chief MinisterSuvenduAdhikari said: “In Haldia, 50 acres of land has been given toTruevisTechnologiesPvt.Ltd. for a medical equipment manufacturing unit.”\r\nA spokesperson forTruevisTechnologies said: “The 50 acres in Haldia mark an important milestone inTruevis’ growth as a manufacturer. Haldia offers a deep industrial base, a port, power and connectivity, and a government with a clear vision for manufacturing-led growth. We will build large medical equipment in Bengal for eastern India and beyond, progressively localise components, and developa skilled technical workforce with local institutions. We thank the Government of West Bengal and Chief Minister Shri Suvendu Adhikari for their support and look forward to creating quality jobs while making advanced medical technologies more accessible.”\r\nThe project aligns with the Chief Minister’s priorities for Haldia: import substitution through domestic manufacturing, a shift from welfare dependence to industrial investment and jobs under “Atmanirbhar Bangla”, and linking industry with institutions such as CIPET and Durgachak ITI to build a skilled workforce. India still relies substantially on imported medical equipment; the Haldia plant will bring the manufacture of high-value diagnostic and therapeutic equipment onshore in eastern India.\r\nAfter the formal land handover, Truevis plans to invest up to ₹500 crore in plant infrastructure, production and assembly lines, testing and calibration facilities, quality and regulatory systems, technology integration and workforce development, built out in phases. Planned capacity is more than 1,000 units of large medical equipment annually – diagnostic imaging equipment, patient monitoring systems, radiotherapy and radiology equipment, and related components and assemblies – with domestic value addition rising as component production is localised and a vendor ecosystem develops.\r\nHaldia’s port, petrochemical and refining cluster, power capacity and road and rail links to Kolkata make it a strong base for precision manufacturing. The plant will serve hospitals, diagnostic centres and healthcare institutions across West Bengal and eastern and north-eastern India, with the port providing a route to exports..\r\nThe project is expected to create more than 5,000 direct and indirect jobs during the operational phase, including skilled roles in assembly, testing, quality control, biomedical engineering and field service, plus ancillary employment in construction, logistics, supply chain, installation and service. In line with the Chief Minister’s proposal, Truevis intends to work with local technical institutions to train the technicians and engineers it will require.\r\nTruevis currently supplies CT, PET-CT, MRI, radiotherapy and advanced radiology equipment, backed by after-sales service, project management, delivery and maintenance.\r\nAboutTruevisTechnologies\r\nTruevis Technologies Pvt. Ltd. is a medical equipment solutions provider focused on manufacturing, distribution, service and support for advanced healthcare technologies.

The recognition places NoBroker Packers and Movers alongside some of the country’s most established industrial and consumer names, with other winners at the event including Tata Motors, ITC and Licious, underscoring the calibre of the competition and the scale of the achievement.\r\nOrganised under the aegis of The Economic Times’ supply chain vertical, the ET Supply Chain Awards recognise organisations reshaping logistics, warehousing and operations through measurable innovation. That a home-relocation service (a category long associated with word-of-mouth referrals, paper estimates and unpredictable moving-day experiences) should win Gold in an AI/ML logistics category says as much about how far the sector has evolved as it does about the platform itself.\r\nSolving Relocation’s Oldest Problem With Data\r\nIndia’s packers and movers industry has historically been fragmented and unorganised, with quality and pricing varying widely from city to city and vendor to vendor. NoBroker Packers and Movers was built specifically to bring structure to that chaos, offering customers verified service partners, transparent quotes and end-to-end coordination for household and office relocations, as an extension of NoBroker’s broader mission of removing middlemen and inefficiency from real estate-adjacent services.\r\nIt is this relocation vertical where artificial intelligence and machine learning appear to have been applied most directly:\r\n\r\n\r\nMatching customers with the right moving partner based on location, load size and timelines\r\n\r\n\r\nForecasting demand across cities and seasons to ensure vehicle and manpower availability\r\n\r\n\r\nOptimising routing and scheduling to cut down transit time and cost\r\n\r\n\r\nReducing the uncertainty that has traditionally made moving day one of the more stressful parts of relocating.\r\n\r\n\r\nThe ET Supply Chain Awards jury’s decision to recognise this work with Gold suggests that NoBroker Packers and Movers’ AI-led approach has matured well beyond a basic booking platform, into a logistics system capable of standing up against dedicated freight, warehousing and manufacturing players at a national awards platform.\r\nWhy Does This Award Matter?\r\nIndustry recognition of this kind matters for a few reasons:\r\n\r\n\r\nFirst, it validates NoBroker Packers and Movers’ positioning as a technology-led logistics service, not merely a marketplace connecting customers to local movers, a distinction the vertical has worked to establish since its inception.\r\n\r\n\r\nSecond, it signals to the broader supply chain community that consumer-facing relocation services, not just enterprise freight and manufacturing operations, are becoming serious contributors to AI-led operational innovation in India.\r\n\r\n\r\nThird, for a business operating in a notoriously fragmented and unorganised market, an external, editorially-driven award offers a credible signal of execution quality to customers, franchise partners and investors alike.\r\n\r\n\r\nThe ET Supply Chain Awards are judged against the backdrop of India’s broader supply chain modernisation story. As e-commerce growth, urban migration and rising consumer expectations push logistics efficiency into sharper national focus, awards platforms such as this one have increasingly gravitated toward recognising AI and machine learning as the primary lever for the sector’s next phase of improvement whether that shows up in predictive fleet management and warehouse automation for large industrial players, or, as in this case, smarter orchestration of last-mile household relocations for millions of Indian consumers.\r\nA Company Built on Removing Friction\r\nNoBroker Packers and Movers operates under the umbrella of NoBroker Technologies Solutions Private Limited, founded in 2014 by Saurabh Garg, Amit Kumar Agarwal, and Akhil Gupta to eliminate brokerage costs from India’s residential real estate market. Over the past decade, the parent platform has expanded from a peer-to-peer rental and resale listing service into a broader ecosystem spanning home loans, legal and rental agreement services, interior and painting services, society management software, and relocation services each vertical built around the same core philosophy: apply technology to remove cost and inefficiency at every stage of a customer’s home journey, not just at the point of transaction.\r\nSeen in that context, this Gold award is a natural extension of that philosophy rather than a departure from it, applying AI/ML capability built to solve inefficient matching and coordination problems in real estate to an equally fragmented, equally overdue-for-disruption category: packing, transport and relocation logistics.\r\nLooking Ahead\r\nFor NoBroker Packers and Movers, the recognition arrives at a moment when India’s logistics and supply chain sector is under increasing scrutiny for its ability to modernise using data and AI rather than manual coordination and legacy processes. Standing shoulder to shoulder with established names such as Tata Motors and ITC at a national industry awards platform gives the relocation vertical a strong data point as it continues to scale across Indian cities.\r\nWhether this Gold marks a one-off recognition or the start of a more visible presence for NoBroker Packers and Movers in logistics and supply chain circles will likely depend on how the vertical chooses to scale and showcase its AI/ML capabilities going forward but for now, the award stands as clear evidence that a service built to make moving homes easier is also, quite literally, learning to move smarter.","articleSection":"Business","datePublished":"2026-10-15T20:38:27+0530","dateModified":"2026-10-16T12:50:16+0530","inLanguage":"en-us","author":{"@type":"Person","name":"Correspondent Desk","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com/user/marudharabharti"},"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Marudhara Bharti English","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com/uploads/logo/logo_6ab9270c36c334-01124948.png"}},"image":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjUO2EedqaQPgkIK-fzVSJaXYm0eCOS8V2vXYdvPHubvWDSHSY5qCrwxVN8N6nMhPCKgpvHl8EA2kKEL3wNnkRZqwRnnwbyvAFQUt_uOzRZzrKzuIBWWk3N_EoHpsCjcxK9OuomzHwgfG1GsoF5XRXtg0em5iVOlCXNsYRiNkiq5gFWzkCBPZGQVrhWsVfL/w1600/image.jpeg","contentUrl":"https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjUO2EedqaQPgkIK-fzVSJaXYm0eCOS8V2vXYdvPHubvWDSHSY5qCrwxVN8N6nMhPCKgpvHl8EA2kKEL3wNnkRZqwRnnwbyvAFQUt_uOzRZzrKzuIBWWk3N_EoHpsCjcxK9OuomzHwgfG1GsoF5XRXtg0em5iVOlCXNsYRiNkiq5gFWzkCBPZGQVrhWsVfL/w1600/image.jpeg"},"keywords":["From","Moving","Homes","Moving","Smarter:","NoBroker","Technologies","Earns","Gold","for","AIML","Excellence","Logistics"]}</script>

The successful ones eventually become infrastructure. Each age has trusted in a different form of value.\r\nIn the past, people stored their wealth in gold because it was rare and widely trusted. Over time, that trust shifted to banks, governments, and large companies, which gave value to money, stocks, and other financial assets. Today, technology is changing the way we think about wealth. As more aspects of life move online, people are beginning to trust digital assets alongside traditional forms of investment, creating new ways to store and grow wealth.\r\nDigital assets represent a manifestation of that change.\r\nWhen we discuss digital assets, the conversation frequently becomes simplified and dramatic, about the roller-coaster rise and fall of bitcoin or cryptocurrency market volatility. These narratives undoubtedly capture attention, yet, they miss the larger evolution taking place. Digital assets have begun to move from a speculative sideline to a serious part of the mainstream discussion of portfolio management, alternative assets and the future of financial innovation.\r\nThe real question before the financial world today isn’t whether digital assets have value or pose a threat. It’s how they will coexist with the existing financial ecosystem.\r\nToday’s investor is managing their wealth in a world characterized by volatility and a fast-moving economic cycle. Geopolitical risks, inflation fears, and technological disruptions have forced many investors to consider diversification strategies beyond traditional stocks, bonds, and real estate. The diversification into alternative investments, from private equity and commodities to a selection of the world’s most established digital assets, has become an essential component of long-term wealth planning.\r\nWhile price has often dominated digital asset discourse, the revolutionary underlying technology of blockchain and tokenization offers new frameworks for ownership and transactions that move beyond what existing institutional structures are built to accommodate. From supply chain logistics and healthcare to digital identities and cross-border payments, blockchain-based applications promise to reshape various industries-and with it, new avenues for value.\r\nIn many ways, the conversations around digital assets have transitioned from digital currency to digital ownership.\r\nThis shift is also changing generational views of financial planning. Older generations often ask, “Are digital assets safe?” Newer investors ask, “Is this the future?” Institutional investors ask, “Can digital assets help diversify our portfolios and improve risk-adjusted returns?”\r\nThese aren’t mutually exclusive views, they are all valid pieces of a rapidly evolving scenario.\r\nBut excitement should never be allowed to outrun diligence. While the possibilities offered by digital assets are immense, so are the risks associated with regulatory uncertainty, evolving market structures, cybersecurity, and the still-present volatility. Investors must engage with digital assets armed with education, governance structures and risk management frameworks, otherwise the most meaningful digital assets may never move beyond the category of speculative holdings.\r\nPerhaps the most profound lesson the world has already learned from innovation cycles: nothing moves in a straight line. When the internet emerged, it was seen as little more than a novelty; it has now transformed how the world functions and exchanges value. Credit cards were once a novel concept: today they represent an everyday standard. History has taught us that new, powerful, and broadly disruptive forms of innovation, typically start in niches before mainstream adoption follows.\r\nDigital assets, it seems, are following a similar pattern.\r\nIt’s unlikely that the future of investment management will involve an “either/or” decision between traditional and digital assets. Instead, the next era of wealth management will feature an “and.” We anticipate a world where prudent investors thoughtfully integrate digital assets into their broader portfolios of traditional and alternative investments-a strategy where the opportunities of innovation are balanced with the stability and resilience afforded by diversification. This is the world we see coming.\r\nIn this next era, wealth may still be measured in numbers, but it will increasingly be written in code.\r\nDisclaimer:This article is for informational purposes only and does not constitute financial or investment advice. Digital assets involve significant risks, including volatility and regulatory uncertainty; readers should conduct their own research and consult a qualified financial advisor before making investment decisions.\r\n ","articleSection":"Business","datePublished":"2026-10-15T20:38:24+0530","dateModified":"2026-10-16T14:28:54+0530","inLanguage":"en-us","author":{"@type":"Person","name":"Correspondent Desk","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com/user/marudharabharti"},"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Marudhara Bharti English","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com/uploads/logo/logo_6ab9270c36c334-01124948.png"}},"image":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgQmocg0kwxbeoBg_VrjKt96ofMIjc0z-nlONdr1poaxrG6eDmLFp0h9ixm1WzaPWB0856GyPOQW1XUTkZtN1EqFo75-XYONytoWdLmP3Pxog9T5mSflNWwuzpQfhPziqgo0Ps_yFHNYrMLA-tKvC28_GR6uO6cqzEmf4VZpobSDwF0s6pV6rIerq3AQ1At/w1600/image.jpeg","contentUrl":"https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgQmocg0kwxbeoBg_VrjKt96ofMIjc0z-nlONdr1poaxrG6eDmLFp0h9ixm1WzaPWB0856GyPOQW1XUTkZtN1EqFo75-XYONytoWdLmP3Pxog9T5mSflNWwuzpQfhPziqgo0Ps_yFHNYrMLA-tKvC28_GR6uO6cqzEmf4VZpobSDwF0s6pV6rIerq3AQ1At/w1600/image.jpeg"},"keywords":["From","Gold","Code:","Why","Digital","Assets","Are","Becoming","the","New","Language","Global","Wealth"]}</script>

By turning packaging, products, print, and other physical and digital touchpoints into programmable surfaces, bitom enables brands to create, scale, measure, and change interactive experiences, all in minutes.\r\nPowered by AI, extended reality (XR), and gamification, bitom brings digital intelligence into the physical world. Every product, packaging, printed collateral, or any other touchpoint can transform into a brand’s own 24 x 7 channel. Building a lasting connection with consumers long after the initial interaction.\r\nWatch the launch film:bitom Launch Video      \r\nThe idea behind bitom comes from Founder and CEO Anurag Sachdeva, who spent more than six years leading the Angry Birds business at Rovio across 13+ countries before building Xtendr. “Taking an IP across markets, partners, and products showed me how difficult it is to keep the conversation with consumers going beyond the initial interaction. At Xtendr, we built connected experiences for some of the region’s biggest brands, and they worked. But building them one at a time made scaling and accessibility, especially for the long-tail brands, a challenge,” he quoted.\r\n“With bitom, we want to change that. Our ambition is to turn traditionally one-way touchpoints into two-way conversations, giving brands and IP owners the ability to create, scale, measure and change experiences in minutes. We have built bitom in India with a global ambition.”, he further added.\r\nFor years, Xtendr has helped 70+ brands across India, Southeast Asia and the Middle East, including Britannia, ITC, Coca-Cola, Unilever, Perfetti, Kimberly-Clark and Pernod Ricard, create experiences around packaging, products, print, and OOH. Transforming every static canvas into a dynamic channel of engagement.\r\nbitom envisions making these experiences even more accessible and scalable..\r\nAn OS for connected experiences, bitom is for marketers, brands, packaging designers, creators, media planners, and their consumers.\r\nWhat they get:\r\n\r\nSpeed at scale: experiences go live in minutes, not months, across brands, markets and SKUs.\r\nMeasurement: Every interaction can be tracked, so every touchpoint becomes a source of data as well as a canvas for communication\r\nFlexibility: Content can be updated after the pack is in market, instead of being fixed at print.\r\nReach beyond the big budgets: Smaller and mid-sized brands can now do what only large advertisers could afford before.\r\n\r\nbitom is also for the IP industry and brand licensing. For brand licensing, bitom enables IP owners and licensees to create IP-approved digital and phygital giveaways in minutes, reducing lead times, costs, and physical waste. No plastic. No paper. No dead stock. Just fandom, built in minutes, at scale, with intelligence.

The strategy is built around a concentrated equity portfolio, complemented by global equity and gold exposure via ETFs.The PMS will invest primarily in a concentrated portfolio of 25-35 stocks across large-cap, mid-cap and small-cap companies, selected for strong fundamentals, sustainable competitive advantage, growth potential, scalability and competent management. To optimise diversification, the strategy also includes exposure to overseas equity indices and commodities such as gold and silver through ETFs, offering clients access to global growth opportunities as well as a hedge against inflation and global economic uncertainty. Allocation decisions combine in-depth fundamental research and financial modelling with top-down macro analysis and bottom-up stock selection, and the portfolio is reviewed periodically.\r\nThe PMS, launched on 10th September 2026, is targeting a corpus of ₹100 crore and has already mobilised ₹20+ crore.\r\nThe launch comes amid rising demand for PMS in India, driven by rapid growth in HNI/UHNI wealth, greater financialisation of household savings, and growing investor preference for differentiated, high-conviction portfolios over standardised pooled investment solutions. It marks another step in Akta Wealth’s evolution from wealth management to capital management, as the firm builds out solutions for the more complex portfolio needs of India’s affluent investors. Alongside the new offering, Akta continues to combine investment solutions with portfolio analytics, in-house research, technology and financial planning.\r\n\r\nGautam Desai, Founder &amp;amp; Chairman at Akta Wealth\r\nGautam Desai, Founder &amp;amp; Chairman at Akta Wealth, said, “At Akta Wealth, we don’t begin with products; we begin with people. Akta Flexicap Fund reflects that philosophy by addressing the growing need among India’s HNI and UHNI investors for customised, high-conviction portfolios that go beyond standardised investment solutions. Long-term wealth creation is about compounding capital sustainably by backing businesses with durable competitive advantages, strong governance and disciplined capital allocation, not chasing short-term returns.”\r\nHe added: “Wealth is not created by timing the market; it is built through time in the market, discipline and the right guidance. This launch is a natural progression in our journey. Over the years, we have built our business around helping clients manage, preserve and grow their wealth. The next step is to participate more directly in managing our clients’ capital. We don’t see this as moving away from wealth management; it is about expanding our role, from advising clients on where to allocate capital to also offering them a professionally managed investment strategy, with their overall portfolio at the centre. Our ambition is to build an integrated capital-management platform where advice, asset allocation and investment management work together around the client’s long-term objectives, guided always by trust, transparency and integrity.”\r\nThe offering will be distributed through Akta’s advisory network to its existing client base and is aimed at HNIs, UHNIs, entrepreneurs, family offices and NRIs with a substantial investable surplus, in keeping with PMS eligibility norms.\r\nFounded in insurance distribution in 1984, Akta has expanded into mutual funds, equity and PMS, alternate assets, private equity, venture capital, family-office solutions, portfolio analytics and fintech, alongside financial planning, loans and insurance. The firm today manages ₹1,600 crore+ in AUM/AUA, serves 4,650+ clients, and operates seven offices across Gujarat and Maharashtra with a team of 25+ professionals.\r\nAbout Akta Wealth\r\nAkta Wealth is a financial services platform with more than four decades of experience.

Navratri brings celebrations, Dussehra brings community gatherings and by Diwali, societies are often at their busiest. More visitors arrive, families come together, community events increase and common spaces see much higher demand.\r\nFor residents, this is what makes the festive season special. For a large residential community, however, it also means managing a significant increase in activity while keeping residents informed about everything happening within the community.\r\nDuring the festive season, societies often have multiple announcements around celebrations, timings, parking arrangements, security protocols and other community updates. Paper notices and messages put up around the society can easily get missed, especially when residents are busy with festive preparations and visitors.\r\nThis is where digital communication becomes critical. NoBrokerHood enables societies to share important updates directly with residents through the platform, making it easier to communicate announcements, event details and other information in real time. Instead of relying on residents noticing a noticeboard or paper circular, important updates can reach them directly on their phones. For residents, this means staying informed without having to keep checking noticeboards or asking security teams for updates. For management teams, it provides a more organised way to communicate with the community during periods when activity is at its highest.\r\nThis is where technology is playing an increasingly important role.\r\nToday, NoBrokerHood powers more than 25,000 societies and impacts around 50 lakh families across India. At this scale, society management is no longer only about managing day-to-day operations. It is about being able to handle sudden increases in activity while keeping the experience seamless for residents.\r\nThe festive season is one of the best examples of this.\r\n\r\nA festive surge at the gates, managed in real time\r\nDuring Navratri, Dussehra and Diwali, societies see a noticeable increase in visitor movement. Residents have friends and relatives visiting, delivery activity goes up and communities also host celebrations that bring more people into the premises.\r\nThe challenge for a large society is not simply allowing people to enter. It is managing a higher volume of movement while ensuring that security remains strong and residents are not inconvenienced.\r\nThis is where technology becomes important.\r\nNoBrokerHood enables residents and security teams to manage visitor movement through a connected digital system. Approvals, visitor information and access can be managed through the platform, allowing security teams to handle higher activity without making the process cumbersome for residents.\r\nThe technology works in the background, while the resident simply experiences a smoother entry process.\r\nAnd during a season when hundreds of residents may have guests arriving around the same time, that difference becomes particularly important.\r\nWhen every guest brings a car, parking needs to keep up\r\nMore visitors also mean more vehicles.\r\nDuring the festive season, a society can see significantly higher parking demand as families invite guests over and community events bring additional visitors. The challenge is to manage this increased movement without turning parking into a source of inconvenience. Keeping track of visitor vehicles manually, especially through registers and paper records, can quickly become a nightmare when the volume of entries increases. Security teams have to record details, check them and coordinate movement, which can lead to delays and errors. NoBrokerHood makes this process easier by enabling digital visitor and vehicle management, helping security teams handle the increased movement more efficiently.\r\nTechnology can help societies bring more visibility and coordination to parking and visitor movement. Instead of residents having to worry about the operational side of parking, the system can help security teams manage the movement of vehicles and visitors more efficiently.\r\nFor residents, the expectation is simple. If they invite family or friends for Diwali, they should be able to focus on their guests rather than spend their evening coordinating parking.\r\nCommunity spaces become busier during the festive season\r\nFestivals also bring residents together.\r\nFrom Navratri celebrations and Dandiya nights to Dussehra gatherings and Diwali events, clubhouses and community halls become important parts of society life. At the same time, individual residents may also want to book these spaces for family celebrations and get-togethers.\r\nThis can create a significant increase in amenity bookings during the festive period.\r\nWith manual or word-of-mouth bookings, increased demand during the festive season can also lead to confusion over who has booked a common facility and when. This can result in overlaps, disagreements and unnecessary conflicts between residents, taking away from what should be a time of celebration.\r\nWith digital amenity booking, residents can check availability and book common facilities through the platform. This makes the process more transparent and helps avoid the confusion that can arise with manual bookings.\r\nThe larger change is that technology is helping societies manage higher levels of activity without adding more complexity to the resident experience.\r\nMaking the festive rush feel effortless\r\nA society may function smoothly on a regular day, but festivals test how well its systems can handle a sudden increase in activity. More visitors, more vehicles and more community events all happen at the same time. This requires different parts of society management to work together. This is where an integrated technology platform like NoBrokerHood becomes valuable.\r\nNoBrokerHood brings together several aspects of community management, including visitor management, security, parking, amenity bookings, communication and other everyday requirements.\r\nOn a regular day, NoBrokerHood-enabled societies see around 25Lakh visitor and vehicle entries. During the festive season, this number can increase to 40Lakh as more residents have guests, deliveries rise and communities host events. Food delivery and online shopping orders also increase during this period, adding to the number of daily entries and putting further pressure on security teams. This makes it even more important for societies to have technology that can handle the additional activity without adding to the workload of security teams or disrupting residents.\r\nThis is also why the role of technology in societies has changed. It is no longer simply about digitising an existing process. It is about creating an ecosystem that can respond to the way communities live today.\r\nFrom managing societies to enabling communities\r\nThe festive season highlights a larger change taking place in India’s residential communities. As societies become larger and more connected, technology is becoming an important part of how communities manage everyday life as well as periods of high activity.\r\nFor NoBrokerHood, the focus is on making this experience simpler for both residents and management teams. Whether it is handling increased visitor movement, managing parking during busy evenings or making amenity bookings easier, technology takes care of the operational complexity in the background.\r\n“Festivals are when communities truly come alive. Our role is to make sure that the increase in visitors, vehicles and celebrations does not become an addedheadachefor residents. With technology taking care of these everyday complexities, residents can spend their time where it matters most, celebrating with their families, friends and communities.”– Amit Kumar Agarwal, Co-founder and CEO, NoBroker\r\nAnd that is what a seamless festive experience should look like. The technology works in the background, while residents get to enjoy the celebrations in the foreground.\r\nIf you object to the content of this press release, please notify us at pr.error.rectification@gmail.com.

The below-20 HP tractor segment represents approximately 3% of India’s overall tractor market, with annual industry volumes estimated at approximately 40,000–45,000 units.\r\nFieldmarshal currently participates in this category through its Shridev 12 HP, 15 HP and 18 HP tractor range and aims to progressively build towards a 10–15% share of India’s below-20 HP tractor segment over the next three years.\r\nThe company plans to introduce tractors up to 30 HP in the near term, while its longer-term R&amp;amp;D roadmap extends towards tractors up to 100 HP. The objective is to progressively develop Shridev from its current strength in compact tractors into a broader tractor brand spanning multiple horsepower categories for both Indian and international markets.\r\n“Our ambition extends well beyond the 15 HP and 18 HP categories. We are building a wider technology and product roadmap across engines, tractors and agricultural mechanisation while simultaneously expanding into water solutions, clean energy and infrastructure-oriented equipment. Our objective is to combine Fieldmarshal’s engineering heritage with new technologies and products capable of serving the next generation of customers in India and globally”, said Mr. Rishi Patel. \r\nEstablished in 1963 as M/s Patel Manufacturers, Fieldmarshal has evolved from an initial annual production capacity of just 80 diesel engines into a diversified engineering company with engine-manufacturing capacity exceeding 160,000 units annually. The Group has established strong manufacturing and OEM relationships, including a joint manufacturing collaboration with Mahindra &amp;amp; Mahindra at its Shapar facility, along with OEM relationships with leading companies including Sonalika, ACE and KAMCO. Its dedicated Shridev tractor manufacturing facility has a production capacity of up to 100 tractors per day.\r\nInternational expansion forms an important part of Fieldmarshal’s future strategy. With Fieldmarshal products already reaching more than 60 countries, the company is currently developing Euro V-compatible engines for export markets, with a future development roadmap extending across higher horsepower categories up to 100 HP.\r\nFieldmarshal also intends to progressively develop and export tractors up to 100 HP, strengthening opportunities with overseas distributors, agricultural-equipment manufacturers and OEM customers.

The announcement was made at the launch of the project, which was attended by Rohit Chattopadhyay, Co-Founder and Director, FITTR.\r\nThe association marks an important step in FITTR’s efforts to embed preventive healthcare into India’s growing wellness real estate sector. Through the collaboration, FITTR will work with Sendh Lake City to integrate health-focused living into the community through diagnostics, wearable-based health tracking, certified coaching, nutrition guidance, clinical support and AI-enabled health intelligence.\r\nThe initiative builds on FITTR’s strategic collaboration with Ileseum Clubs, a leading sports, fitness and lifestyle club-management platform. Together, FITTR and Ileseum are creating an integrated preventive-health ecosystem across clubs and residential communities by combining FITTR’s health intelligence with Ileseum’s physical infrastructure, curated programming and community engagement. The collaboration aims to reach over 50,000 Ileseum members annually and positively impact nearly 20,000 families living within integrated residential communities.\r\nIndia’s wellness real estate market, estimated at US$20.5 billion, is growing at approximately 26.5% annually, faster than the global average. Globally, the sector reached US$876 billion in 2025 and is projected to reach US$1.8 trillion by 2030, according to the Global Wellness Institute. As homebuyers increasingly prioritise wellbeing, developers are moving beyond conventional amenities to create communities that actively support healthier lifestyles.\r\n“India has always been deeply rooted in culture, but fitness and preventive health have not yet become equally rooted in our everyday culture. This can change when people build stronger associations and partnerships within their communities,” said Rohit Chattopadhyay, Co-Founder and Director, FITTR. “Sendh Lake City brings together young families and senior residents in one community, creating the right environment for health to become a shared way of life. FITTR aims to be a catalyst in bringing about this change-making preventive healthcare accessible, continuous and part of everyday community living.”\r\nFITTR’s community-led model is designed to enable early identification of health risks, sustained behaviour change and long-term health monitoring. By working with developers, club platforms and township ecosystems, the company seeks to make preventive care a natural part of daily life, supporting India’s broader need to address lifestyle-related diseases through earlier intervention.\r\nThe collaboration with Sendh Lake City reflects FITTR’s belief that the future of real estate lies in shifting the measure of a home from square feet to healthspan, enabling residents to live healthier, longer, and more capable lives.\r\nIf you object to the content of this press release, please notify us at pr.error.rectification@gmail.com.

The Studio Merino experience allows visitors to view designs on full-size sheets, experience textures and finishes, compare options and seek guidance before making a final selection for their interiors.\r\nWith a focused presence across the country’s 10 major cities, Studio Merino brings the brand’s premium laminate portfolio into a live retail environment where consumers can see designs on full-size sheets, experience textures and finishes, compare options and understand how a particular design could look in a real interior.\r\nThe proposition is built around a simple idea, i.e., some interior choices are better experienced in person. At a conventional dealer outlet, consumers often experience laminates primarily through folders or smaller samples. With Studio Merino, consumers do not have to make their decision based only on folder-based swatches. They can see the materials in their full, actual size, experience the design at scale and make a more informed choice for their space. Studio Merino takes the experience a step further by displaying full-size laminate sheets, along with folders, matching samples and other material references. This gives consumers a better sense of the actual scale, colour, texture and finish of a design before it becomes part of their home.\r\nThe experience is particularly relevant for homeowners making decisions for spaces such as kitchens, wardrobes and furniture, where the relationship between the laminate and the overall interior becomes important. Seeing a full sheet allows consumers to assess the design in a way that is difficult to replicate through a small sample. They can view the pattern at scale, experience the surface texture and compare multiple options before arriving at a selection.\r\nStudio Merino brings together Merino’s complete HPL laminate offering, allowing visitors to explore a wide range of designs and finishes under one roof. Consumers are also supported by trained members of the outlet team, who can guide them through the available options and provide relevant product details during the selection process. For architects and interior designers, the studios provide an additional avenue to experience the portfolio in a physical setting and evaluate materials while developing concepts and specifications for residential interiors.\r\nMr. Manoj Lohia, Director, Merino Industries, said, “When people are choosing a laminate for their home, seeing a small sample can only tell part of the story. Studio Merino brings the product much closer to the actual decision. Consumers can walk into a neighbourhood store, see the design on a full-size sheet, experience the texture and finish, compare options and speak to someone who understands the products. We have created these studios to make the selection process more informed, more accessible and more personal. The expansion to 250+ outlets takes that experience closer to consumers across India, particularly in markets where the demand for premium interior materials is growing.”\r\nThe growing Studio Merino network also reflects the changing way consumers approach interior decisions. As homeowners more often spend time evaluating materials, finishes and design combinations before committing to a space, the physical experience of a product becomes an important part of the selection journey. Studio Merino’s positioning – ‘Do your design differently’ captures this approach by encouraging consumers to move beyond conventional selection methods and experience their choices before making the final decision.\r\nTo further bring this proposition to consumers, Merino has developed two AV films encouraging consumers to visit Studio Merino locations. The films creatively &amp;amp; humorously builds on the idea that seeing, touching, and experiencing a design in person can lead to a more informed selection, particularly when choosing materials for key spaces within the home.\r\nThe network is designed to continue expanding into markets where the reach of premium laminate products is growing. The focus will be on taking the Studio Merino experience to more such markets and making full-size product exploration accessible to a wider consumer base. Consumers and visitors looking to experience Studio Merino can find their nearest Studio Merino location through the location finder on the Merino website, making it easier to identify a nearby outlet and explore the laminate range in person.\r\nThe idea remains straightforward, i.e., see the design, experience the surface – as well as understand the product and then make the choice.

The annual list recognises emerging companies that are attracting attention from professionals and creating opportunities for people to develop their careers.\r\nThe recognition comes during a significant year for Arrowhead as the Bengaluru-based company expands across top enterprises including RBL Bank, UpGrad, Indiamart, Tata 1MG, BharatPe, Aditya Birla Capital and many others. \r\n“Being recognised by LinkedIn as one of India’s Top Startups is a massive moment for everyone at Arrowhead,” said Devyani Gupta, Co-founder and CEO of Arrowhead. “From a 10-person team last year scaling to 40 people and triple the enterprise customers – it’s the grit, passion and hustle of each team member that’s gotten us to where we are today.”\r\nFounded by Devyani Gupta and Vengadanathan Srinivasan, Arrowhead develops AI voice agents designed to manage long and complex voice conversations in multiple Indian languages. Its technology integrates with enterprise customer relationship management systems, diallers, and operational platforms, allowing the agents to retrieve relevant information and perform approved actions during a live call.\r\nIn one of its inbound customer support deployments with digital lending platform Kissht, Arrowhead’s voice AI agents began handling 40% of the company’s total inbound support volume within two months. Approximately 88% of the calls handled by the agents were resolved without human involvement, while the average handling time was approximately 30% lower than that of human specialists.\r\nIn another deployment with Tata 1mg, Arrowhead’s voice agent managed abandoned-cart recovery conversations from the initial customer call through to order completion. The deployment recorded a 15% higher conversion rate than the human-agent benchmark on the same leads and a 30% improvement in connection rates.\r\nEarlier in 2026, Arrowhead raised $3 million in seed funding in a round led by Stellaris Venture Partners. The round also included participation from Kunal Shah, founder of CRED; Madhusudanan R, founder of M2P; and senior executives from the financial services and technology sectors. Arrowhead has used the funding to deepen its voice AI models, strengthen its technology and customer-facing teams, and develop infrastructure for large-scale enterprise deployments.\r\n“Enterprise voice AI is moving beyond scripted calling and basic automation,” Gupta added. “Organisations now expect these systems to generate outcomes. It’s no longer a cost center but a revenue center.” \r\nLinkedIn’s Top Startups List is one of the platform’s flagship editorial rankings. The India edition highlights emerging companies that have demonstrated their ability to attract professional interest, engage talent and create opportunities for career growth.\r\nFor Arrowhead, the recognition reflects the progress made by its product, engineering, customer success and business teams as the company continues to expand its enterprise voice AI platform in India and other markets.\r\nAbout Arrowhead\r\nArrowhead develops enterprise-grade conversational AI voice agents for organisations managing customer interactions at scale. Headquartered in Bengaluru, the company’s technology supports use cases across customer support, sales, collections, insurance renewals and other high-volume calling operations. Arrowhead’s voice agents support multilingual conversations and integrate with enterprise CRMs, diallers and internal systems to complete approved actions during calls. The company works with organisations across banking, financial services, insurance, healthcare, e-commerce, education and other sectors. Arrowhead raised $3 million in seed funding in 2026 in a round led by Stellaris Venture Partners.\r\nFor more information, visit www.arrowhead.ai.\r\nMedia Contact\r\nGarv JainFounder’s Office, ArrowheadEmail: garv@arrowhead.teamPhone: +91 96095 21113Website: www.arrowhead.ai","articleSection":"Business","datePublished":"2026-10-15T12:49:27+0530","dateModified":"2026-10-15T12:55:36+0530","inLanguage":"en-us","author":{"@type":"Person","name":"PNN","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com/user/pnnindia"},"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Marudhara Bharti English","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com/uploads/logo/logo_6ab9270c36c334-01124948.png"}},"image":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://pnndigital.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/10/PNN-2026-10-14T152328.457.jpg","contentUrl":"https://pnndigital.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/10/PNN-2026-10-14T152328.457.jpg"},"keywords":["Arrowhead","India’s Top 20 Tech Startups","LinkedIn’s 2026 List"]}</script>

Retail inflation, as measured by the Consumer Price Index (CPI), rose to 5.54% in September 2026 from 4.83% in August, its eleventh consecutive monthly increase, according to data released by the Ministry of Statistics and Programme Implementation (MoSPI) on October 12. Food inflation surged to 7.74% from 5.97%, with onion prices more than doubling year-on-year, and a home-cooked vegetarian thali cost about 10% more than a year earlier. On October 7, the Reserve Bank of India’s (RBI) Monetary Policy Committee (MPC) raised the repo rate by 25 basis points to 5.50%, its first hike in over three and a half years, and shifted its stance to calibrated tightening. Governor Sanjay Malhotra said rate cuts are off the table in the near term. The RBI raised its FY27 CPI inflation projection to 5.2% from 5.0%, and expects inflation to peak at 6.0% in the October-December quarter, which coincides with the festive season.\r\n•  In total, 57% urban Indian households surveyed likely to spend this festive season.\r\n•  34% of households spending likely to fund a significant part (25% or more) of festive spending from Savings.\r\n•  72% of households spending likely to buy clothing/fashion products; 45% also buying appliances.\r\n•  9% households likely to spend over INR 1 lakh this festive season; 30% between INR 10,000 and 1 lakh.\r\nThe RBI has flagged that price pressures are becoming broad-based, with 37% of items in the CPI basket rising more than 4% by August, and that cyclical inflation risks are no longer benign given elevated oil prices, tighter global conditions and a deficient monsoon. Brent crude was trading at about USD 101 per barrel on October 6, over 50% higher than a year ago, and wholesale inflation, as measured by the Wholesale Price Index (WPI), jumped to 11.39% in September from 9.92% in August on higher fuel and manufacturing costs, according to government data released on October 14. The hike will also make festive borrowing costlier: if passed on in full, the EMI on an INR 50 lakh, 25-year home loan rises by about INR 817 a month.\r\nWhile the RBI raised its FY27 GDP growth projection to 7.1% from 6.7%, citing resilient private consumption, its household surveys point to growing caution. In the July 2026 round of the Urban Consumer Confidence Survey, the Current Situation Index fell to 88.3 from 90.7 and the Future Expectations Index to 115.3 from 118.7. The net response on current spending on non-essential items stood at just 3.3, against 86.7 for essential items, while the employment net response fell to -21.9 from -14.4. Households also expect prices to rise 9.4% over the next year, according to the RBI’s Inflation Expectations Survey of Households. These expectations carry weight: RBI working papers by Purnima Shaw and RK Sinha find that since the pandemic, household inflation forecasts have been more accurate than professional forecasts about 65% of the time, against 39% for professional forecasts.\r\nHousehold balance sheets are also under strain. While net household financial savings improved to 7% of Gross National Disposable Income (GNDI) in FY25 from 5.8% in FY24, largely due to lower borrowings, an Economic and Political Weekly analysis published in early September notes that household financial liabilities reached 45.8% of GDP by March 2026, having grown faster than financial assets since mid-2022. New fixed deposits offered 5.67% in August, below the 9.4% inflation households expect, implying negative real returns, yet the share of term deposits in total bank deposits rose from about 55% to nearly 62% between March 2022 and March 2026.\r\nEarly festive indicators point to spending that is selective. Gross GST collections rose 14.7% year-on year to INR 2.04 lakh crore in September 2026, though domestic GST grew a more modest 10.1%. Vehicle retail sales hit a record 25.37 lakh units in September, up 31.8% year-on-year, though the Federation of Automobile Dealers Associations (FADA) cautioned that growth was flattered by a low base, as buyers had deferred purchases ahead of GST 2.0 in September 2025.\r\nOnline festive sales, which opened with Amazon’s Great Indian Festival on October 8 and Flipkart’s Big Billion Days on October 9, show a similar split. Platforms have reported strong traffic, with Flipkart recording 6.3 million concurrent users and about 60% of demand from non-metro customers, and Meesho reporting a 75% year-onyear rise in Day 1 orders across fashion, beauty and festive décor. Big-ticket electronics, however, are under pressure: Counterpoint Research expects festive smartphone volumes to fall 12% year-on-year as rising memory chip costs push up device prices, even as market value rises 5%. Unlike last year, when GST rate cuts effective September 22, 2025 coincided with the start of major sales, there is no tax-led tailwind this season.\r\nAgainst this backdrop, LocalCircles conducted its Mood of the Consumer survey to understand how much urban Indian households plan to spend this festive season, what they intend to buy and how they plan to fund it. The survey received over 67,000 responses from urban household consumers located across 307 districts of India.\r\nThe survey indicates that urban Indian households are likely to spend INR 20,000 on average on discretionary purchases this festive season. Based on the spending levels indicated in the survey, LocalCircles estimates total urban household festive spending at INR 1.97 lakh crore in 2026, 6% lower than INR 2.10 lakh crore in 2025. This reverses last year’s rise from INR 1.85 lakh crore in 2024, a year in which the GST rate cuts effective September 22, 2025 coincided with the start of the festive season. While 57% of households surveyed are likely to spend this festive season, 31% plan no discretionary spending at all. Of those spending, 72% will buy clothing/fashion products, and 83% will dip into savings to some extent, including 34% who will fund 25% or more of their festive spending from savings. The key findings are detailed below.\r\n57% of urban Indian households surveyed likely to spend this festive season; 9% likely to spend over INR 1 lakh and 30% between INR 10,000 and 1 lakh\r\nTo gauge festive spending plans, the survey asked urban households, “During the upcoming festive season (September-November 2026), approximately how much does your household expect to spend on discretionary purchases (excluding regular monthly expenses like groceries, utilities, rent/EMIs, school fees, etc.)?” This question received 22,904 responses. In response, 31% said no discretionary spending is planned, while 18% expect to spend less than INR 10,000 and 15% between INR 10,001 and INR 25,000. Another 9% expect to spend INR 25,001-50,000, 6% INR 50,001-1 lakh and 9% INR 1-10 lakh, while 12% could not say.\r\nIn aggregate, 57% of urban households surveyed are likely to spend this festive season. 30% expect to spend between INR 10,000 and INR 1 lakh and 9% over INR 1 lakh, while 18% will keep their festive budget below INR 10,000. With nearly 1 in 3 households planning no discretionary spending at all, the findings mirror the caution visible in the RBI’s latest urban consumer confidence survey, where the net response on current spending on non-essential items stood at just 3.3.\r\nUrban Indian households likely to spend INR 20,000 on average this festive season; total urban festive spending estimated at INR 1.97 lakh crore, 6% lower than 2025\r\nBased on the discretionary spending levels indicated by households in the survey, LocalCircles estimates that urban Indian households are likely to spend INR 20,000 on average this festive season, and that total urban household festive spending will fall to INR 1.97 lakh crore in 2026 from INR 2.10 lakh crore in 2025, a decline of 6%. Festive spending had risen about 14% in 2025 from INR 1.85 lakh crore in 2024, as the GST 2.0 rate cuts effective September 22, 2025 coincided with the start of the festive season. This year, with no such tax-led tailwind, retail inflation at 5.54%, food inflation at 7.74% and the RBI’s October 7 rate hike making credit costlier, households are scaling back, although spending remains about INR 12,000 crore above 2024 levels. The pullback is most visible in big-ticket categories, with Counterpoint Research projecting a 12% year-on-year fall in festive smartphone volumes as device prices rise.\r\n72% of urban Indian households spending this festive season likely to buy clothing/fashion products; 45% also buying home appliances &amp;amp; furniture\r\nThe survey next asked households, “What are all the discretionary purchases that your household plans to make during the upcoming festive season?” This question received 20,916 responses, with respondents able to select more than one option. In response, 72% said clothing, footwear &amp;amp; accessories, making it the clear top category, followed by 45% each for home appliances &amp;amp; furniture and travel &amp;amp; holidays. 39% plan to spend on gourmet foods &amp;amp; gifting, 22% each on mobile phones, consumer electronics &amp;amp; gadgets and on home renovation/interiors, and 10% on an automobile/two-wheeler. Only 6% plan to buy jewellery, while 10% listed other categories.\r\nThe low share for jewellery comes as domestic gold prices rose 12% in August to about INR 1.59 lakh per 10 grams, with the World Gold Council noting that sharp price swings are keeping jewellery buyers cautious ahead of the festive season. CPI data for August also show silver jewellery prices up over 107% year-on-year. Prices remain elevated going into Dhanteras and Diwali, with gold trading at about INR 1.50 lakh per 10 grams and silver at about INR 2.26 lakh per kg on MCX on October 7.\r\nEarly online sales mirror this, with Meesho reporting a 75% year-on-year rise in Day 1 orders across fashion, beauty and festive décor, while pricier smartphones weighed on electronics.\r\n34% of urban Indian households spending this festive season likely to fund a significant part (25% or more) of it from savings; 83% to dip into savings to some extent\r\nTo understand how festive purchases will be funded, the survey asked households, “If your household plans discretionary spending this festive season, what proportion do you expect to fund from savings?” This question received 23,451 responses. In response, 17% said none, as spending will come entirely from earnings, while 49% expect to fund less than 25% from savings and 18% between 25% and 50%. No respondent chose 51-75% or more than 75%, while 16% said their spending will be funded entirely from savings. None indicated that borrowing would be required.\r\nIn aggregate, 83% of urban households planning festive spending expect to dip into savings, and 34% expect to fund a significant amount, 25% or more, from savings, including 16% who will rely on savings entirely. With retail inflation already at 5.54% in September, the RBI projecting it to peak at 6.0% in the October-December quarter and its October 7 rate hike making credit costlier, drawing on savings appears to be how many households plan to protect festive spending from pressure on monthly budgets.\r\nIn Summary\r\nThe LocalCircles Mood of the Consumer survey indicates that urban India’s festive season will be more subdued than last year. Urban Indian households are likely to spend INR 20,000 on average, and LocalCircles estimates total urban household festive spending at INR 1.97 lakh crore in 2026, 6% lower than INR 2.10 lakh crore in 2025, when GST rate cuts coincided with the festive season, though still above INR 1.85 lakh crore in 2024. While 57% of urban households surveyed plan discretionary purchases, 31% plan none, and budgets are largely modest: 30% expect to spend between INR 10,000 and INR 1 lakh and only 9% over INR 1 lakh. Spending is concentrated on clothing/fashion products, which 72% of those spending plan to buy, followed by home appliances &amp;amp; furniture and travel &amp;amp; holidays at 45% each, while jewellery purchases are limited to 6% amid elevated gold and silver prices.\r\nThe findings on funding are the most significant. 83% of households planning festive spending will dip into savings, and 34% will fund 25% or more of it from savings, including 16% who will rely on savings entirely. In other words, for many urban households this festive season is being paid for out of past savings rather than current income. This corroborates the RBI’s finding of resilient spending intentions despite weakening sentiment on the economy and jobs. With the RBI’s October 7 rate hike raising borrowing costs and rate cuts ruled out in the near term, savings, not credit, will be the cushion.\r\nThat cushion is thinning. Retail inflation has risen for eleven consecutive months to 5.54% in September, wholesale inflation has crossed 11%, food inflation is at 7.74% and crude oil remains above USD 100 per barrel, while household liabilities have been growing faster than financial assets. With wholesale prices rising at more than twice the pace of retail prices, more of that pressure could reach store shelves in the coming months, just as the RBI expects CPI inflation to peak at 6.0% in the October-December quarter. Households drawing down savings now may have less of a buffer for the wedding season and the expenses that follow into 2027. Urban India will light its diyas this Diwali as it always does; the difference this year is how much of the oil is being drawn from household savings.\r\nSurvey Demographics\r\nThe survey received over 67,000 responses from urban household consumers located across 307 districts of India. 63% respondents were men while 37% respondents were women. 41% of respondents were from tier 1, 28% from tier 2 and 31% respondents were from tier 3 &amp;amp; 4 districts. The survey was conducted via the LocalCircles platform, and all participants were validated citizens who had to be registered with LocalCircles to participate in this survey.\r\nSurvey Methodology\r\nThis survey has been conducted using the proprietary LocalCircles stratified sampling methodology. With a minimum target of 30% participation of each gender and a minimum target of 25% participation from three location groups (Tier 1, Tier 2 and Tier 3-4 districts) on each poll, all polls were run. After the minimum participation criteria were met, all polls were run till they achieved steady state. Post achievement of steady state, the LocalCircles system using the bootstrapping technique drew additional samples to test for the margin of error. All polls were found to have a margin of error under 7% and a confidence level of over 93%.\r\nAbout LocalCircles\r\nLocalCircles, India’s leading Community Social Media platform enables citizens and small businesses to escalate issues for policy and enforcement interventions and enables the Government to make policies that are citizen and small business centric. LocalCircles is also India’s # 1 pollster on issues of governance, public and consumer interest.

Over the next decade, his portfolio expanded across jewellery, fashion, FMCG, hospitality, real estate, architecture, food, textile, industrial and automotive brands.\r\nAlong the way, Desai photographed Bollywood personalities including Akshay Kumar, Sunny Leone and Preity Zinta, building a portfolio of celebrity and entertainment photography. He also worked on wedding and pre-wedding projects alongside campaigns for beverage, jewellery and real estate clients across South Gujarat.\r\nFrom Early Assignments to Creative Independence\r\nHarshil Desai initially funded his photography career through small assignments, using his earnings to invest in cameras, lenses and lighting equipment that enabled him to take on larger projects.\r\nHis early exposure to the creative industry also came from home. His father, Rajesh Desai, is the owner and Managing Director of Harmony Multimedia, a full-service advertising agency based in Surat, while his mother, Amishi Desai, is an accomplished dancer.\r\nGrowing up around an advertising agency gave Harshil an early understanding of brand storytelling, creative execution and the business behind communication, long before he pursued formal education in the field.\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nTaking Creativity Beyond Borders\r\nSeeking international exposure and a deeper understanding of the creative industry, Desai moved to the United States, where he enrolled at the Savannah College of Art and Design (SCAD) in Atlanta.\r\nHe completed a Bachelor of Fine Arts in Photography, followed by a Master of Fine Arts in Advertising, expanding his creative expertise beyond photography into advertising strategy.\r\nHis academic and creative journey brought industry recognition, including a Silver ADDY Award for a Verizon campaign and an IDA Design Award. His work also received recognition through the Red Dot and Young Ones Awards, alongside a SCAD Academic Honors Scholarship and an earlier First Place for Photo Illustration at the CSPA Gold Circle Digital Awards.\r\nIn 2023, Desai served as Ideation Lead and Presentation Manager on a Deloitte x SCADpro collaboration, developing advertising concepts aimed at improving public transportation in Los Angeles. He also directed a stop-motion television commercial for the project.\r\nThese experiences helped him develop a broader understanding of advertising, moving from creating individual visual assets to planning and executing integrated campaigns.\r\nHarmony LLC: Bringing Advertising onto the Road\r\nDesai applied his experience in photography, advertising and creative strategy to entrepreneurship.\r\nIn Atlanta, he founded Harmony LLC, a digital out-of-home advertising venture built around a fleet of LED-equipped trucks.\r\nUnlike conventional roadside billboards, the company’s mobile advertising model allows brands to reach audiences across different locations through moving digital displays.\r\nSupported by GPS tracking and real-time route analytics, the system enables campaigns to be planned, adjusted and monitored according to routes and audience locations.\r\nHarmony LLC has already executed advertising campaigns for political, retail, corporate and FMCG clients across Atlanta.\r\nThe venture also draws on Desai’s creative background, with advertising content developed in-house rather than relying entirely on pre-existing templates.\r\nFor Desai, the business represents an opportunity to bring together creative storytelling, technology and advertising strategy in a format designed for today’s evolving media landscape.\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nExploring New Opportunities in Advertising\r\nThe timing of Harmony LLC’s expansion comes as political advertising continues to attract significant investment in the United States.\r\nIndustry projections estimate that political advertising expenditure during the 2026 U.S. midterm election cycle could reach approximately $10 billion to $11.6 billion, with Atlanta expected to remain an important advertising market.\r\nMobile, GPS-tracked digital out-of-home advertising presents an alternative to fixed billboards, particularly for campaigns that require flexibility, location-based targeting and quick execution.\r\nHarmony LLC is positioning itself to explore these opportunities while continuing to serve clients across retail, FMCG and corporate advertising.\r\nConnecting Creativity Across Continents\r\nHarshil does not view Harmony LLC as an isolated venture, but as part of a broader ambition to connect creative expertise across international markets.\r\nHarmony Multimedia, the family’s established advertising agency in Surat, is exploring opportunities to incorporate new ideas, tools and technology-led advertising formats inspired by developments in the United States.\r\nThis evolving connection between Harmony’s operations in India and the United States brings together the experience of an established advertising business and the perspective of a new generation exploring emerging media formats.\r\nLooking ahead, Desai is also considering opportunities in Dubai and Europe, while preparing to explore film production as a natural extension of his experience across photography, advertising and visual storytelling.\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nA Journey of Creativity and Entrepreneurship\r\nFrom taking his first photography assignment as a teenager in Surat to building a technology-driven advertising venture in the United States, Harshil Desai’s career reflects a willingness to explore opportunities beyond his original field.\r\nHis journey has brought together commercial photography, international education, advertising strategy and entrepreneurship, while maintaining a connection with the creative business in which he grew up.\r\nAs he continues to develop Harmony LLC and explore new markets, Desai is working towards a larger vision of connecting creativity, technology and advertising across borders.\r\nFor Harshil Desai, the camera was where the journey began. The possibilities ahead extend far beyond the frame.","articleSection":"Business","datePublished":"2026-10-15T12:49:27+0530","dateModified":"2026-10-15T12:58:26+0530","inLanguage":"en-us","author":{"@type":"Person","name":"PNN","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com/user/pnnindia"},"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Marudhara Bharti English","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com/uploads/logo/logo_6ab9270c36c334-01124948.png"}},"image":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://pnndigital.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/10/PNN-89.jpg","contentUrl":"https://pnndigital.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/10/PNN-89.jpg"},"keywords":["Harshil Desai","Teenage Photographer","Global Advertising Venture"]}</script>

Organisations across industries are using AI to improve customer experience, streamline workflows, automate routine tasks, support decision-making, and drive growth. According to McKinsey’s 2025 State of AI report, nearly 78% of organisations globally now use AI in at least one business function.\r\nWhile much of the conversation focuses on AI’s potential benefits, an equally important question often receives far less attention: who controls the data that powers these systems?\r\nAs businesses adopt AI at scale, many are doing so without fully addressing issues around data ownership, governance, and security. The result is that sensitive business information, customer data, intellectual property, and operational knowledge may be exposed to risks that are not always immediately visible.\r\nData Is the Foundation of Every AI System\r\nEvery AI application relies on data. Whether it is a chatbot responding to customer queries, a recommendation engine analysing behaviour, or a model generating content, data is constantly being collected, processed, and interpreted.\r\nYet many organisations still lack clear visibility into where that data is stored, who can access it, how long it is retained, and whether it is being used beyond its original purpose. As AI systems gain access to larger volumes of information, these questions become increasingly important.\r\nThe business impact can be significant. IBM’s Cost of a Data Breach Report 2024 found that the average global cost of a data breach reached USD 4.88 million, the highest level recorded to date. As AI becomes more deeply embedded into business operations, strong data governance is becoming just as important as AI performance itself.\r\nThe Rise of Shadow AI\r\nOne of the fastest-growing concerns for organisations is the emergence of Shadow AI — the use of AI tools without the visibility or approval of IT, security, or compliance teams.\r\nEmployees are increasingly turning to publicly available AI platforms to create content, analyse information, summarise documents, and automate tasks. While these tools can improve productivity, they can also create new risks.\r\nBusiness proposals, customer records, financial information, contracts, source code, and other sensitive data are often uploaded to external AI platforms without a full understanding of how that information is stored or processed. Traditional cybersecurity frameworks were not designed to manage this kind of exposure, making governance more important than ever.\r\nWhy Data Sovereignty Matters More Than Ever\r\nAs AI adoption grows, data sovereignty is moving from a compliance issue to a strategic business consideration.\r\nData sovereignty refers to an organisation’s ability to determine where its data is stored, processed, and governed. This has become especially important for sectors handling sensitive information, including banking, healthcare, government, education, and telecommunications.\r\nMany AI platforms operate across multiple regions and jurisdictions. While this helps improve scale and performance, it can also create challenges around data localisation, privacy requirements, and regulatory accountability.\r\nFor Indian businesses, understanding where data resides and how it is governed is becoming a critical part of infrastructure planning as AI moves deeper into core business processes. \r\nPadma Reddy Sama, Co-Founder, BharathCloud, shared,“AI is only as strong as the data ecosystem behind it. While many organisations focus on what AI can help them achieve, an equally important consideration is whether they maintain control over the data that powers those systems. Today, governance, data sovereignty,and security are no longer viewed merely as compliance requirements; they are increasingly becoming key factors that influence trust, resilience, and competitive advantage in an AI-driven business environment.”\r\nBuilding Governance Into AI Adoption\r\nThe solution is not to slow down AI adoption. Businesses that delay implementation risk falling behind competitors that are already benefiting from AI-driven efficiencies.\r\nHowever, successful adoption must be supported by strong governance frameworks. This includes establishing clear data ownership, defining acceptable AI usage policies, maintaining secure infrastructure environments, strengthening monitoring and audit capabilities, and ensuring collaboration between technology, legal, compliance, and business teams.\r\nAI governance works best when it is built into the adoption process rather than added later as a corrective measure.\r\nTrust Will Define the Next Phase of AI\r\nThe future of AI will be shaped not only by innovation but also by trust. Customers, regulators, investors, and business partners increasingly expect organisations to demonstrate transparency in how data is collected, managed, and used. Businesses that can combine AI innovation with responsible data practices will be better positioned to scale confidently and sustainably.\r\nAs AI becomes a permanent part of business operations, data control can no longer be treated as an afterthought. The organisations that gain the most from AI will not necessarily be the first to adopt it, but those that can use it responsibly, securely, and with a clear understanding of the data that powers it.\r\n ","articleSection":"Business","datePublished":"2026-10-14T17:48:34+0530","dateModified":"2026-10-14T18:45:50+0530","inLanguage":"en-us","author":{"@type":"Person","name":"Correspondent Desk","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com/user/marudharabharti"},"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Marudhara Bharti English","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com/uploads/logo/logo_6ab9270c36c334-01124948.png"}},"image":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgFQ8mLTDujFvO39BRaymM-PW8C5KVVYQXseJVHnjuAW87aO3ZPang8gdspnuH0wVNX59u_spja6eCgARjFCcr__gxhot3j7vhilxrKoJDgxPKLEHSskaJzsVv89knrZjd4nOIrlpHJiVeikldfCDKTZ5XN2zlvxe927rmHItaK-64QXVMdxU-OdzKEGF1s/w1600/image.jpeg","contentUrl":"https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgFQ8mLTDujFvO39BRaymM-PW8C5KVVYQXseJVHnjuAW87aO3ZPang8gdspnuH0wVNX59u_spja6eCgARjFCcr__gxhot3j7vhilxrKoJDgxPKLEHSskaJzsVv89knrZjd4nOIrlpHJiVeikldfCDKTZ5XN2zlvxe927rmHItaK-64QXVMdxU-OdzKEGF1s/w1600/image.jpeg"},"keywords":["","Adoption","Without","Data","Control","Risk","Most","Businesses","Ignore:","Padma","Reddy","Sama","","Bharathcloud"]}</script>

This sustained capital deployment creates a recurring tender pipeline for engineering, procurement, and construction (EPC) contractors equipped with the necessary technical credentials.\r\nWithin this framework, water and wastewater treatment remain high-priority sectors. Market research from Mordor Intelligence estimates India’s water treatment technology market will expand from US$3.27 billion in 2026 to US$5.17 billion by 2031, representing a 9.62% CAGR. Flagship government initiatives provide long-term budget visibility, including Jal Jeevan Mission 2.0 (outlay of ₹8.69 lakh crore extended through December 2028) and AMRUT 2.0 (indicative outlay of ₹2.99 lakh crore).\r\nFor companies operating in government and institutional infrastructure, project opportunities are largely determined by the tenders floated by government departments and other institutions, along with the eligibility requirements attached to each project.\r\nVL Infraprojects’ management has explained that the company participates in tenders across different locations and departments and undertakes projects for which it is selected. The company’s project portfolio therefore comprises the infrastructure projects secured through this tendering process.\r\nManagement has described this tender-led approach as central to the company’s operating model, with projects taken up across locations and departments based on the tenders for which the company qualifies and is selected.\r\nThe company’s ability to participate in these tenders depends on the eligibility requirements of individual projects, including relevant experience, technical qualifications and other tender conditions. Where required, the company can also participate through joint-venture or consortium arrangements. This tender-based approach means that the projects undertaken by VL are determined by the opportunities available across different locations and infrastructure categories and the tenders for which the company qualifies and is selected.\r\nUnderstanding the Tender-Driven Operating Model\r\nVL Infraprojects operates through a pure-play, tender-driven business model. Rather than relying on a single specialized niche, project allocation is determined entirely by bidding eligibility, technical qualification thresholds, and government departmental tender floated across target states.\r\nAs the company’s execution track record has matured, its bidding threshold has expanded significantly. Management indicates that VL can now independently bid for standalone municipal and state projects of up to ~₹100 crore. For larger mandates – such as a recent ₹74.44 crore Gujarat Water Infrastructure project – the company utilizes Joint Ventures (holding a 31% stake worth ₹23.08 crore) to bid for contracts valued up to ~₹200 crore.\r\nVL Infraprojects: A Multi-Segment Infrastructure Contractor\r\nIncorporated in Ahmedabad in 2014, VL Infraprojects undertakes infrastructure projects across water supply, irrigation, building construction and roads. Management has explained that the business initially developed through water-supply projects, supported by promoter experience in pipeline manufacturing, valves and pumping machinery, and subsequently expanded its project activities across other infrastructure segments. Management has also said that the business is looking to expand its building-construction activities and pursue opportunities in power and road projects in the coming years.\r\nThe company’s FY26 investor presentation reports four principal revenue segments: water infrastructure, building construction, irrigation projects and road construction. Water infrastructure contributed 76.79% of FY26 revenue, followed by building construction at 19.21%, irrigation projects at 2.95% and road construction at 1.05%.\r\nThe company participates in tenders across different locations and infrastructure departments, with projects undertaken based on the tenders it qualifies for and wins. Its project activities include water supply, sewerage, pipelines, RCC structures, foundations, earthwork, RCC works and O&amp;amp;M services, alongside building, irrigation and road construction.\r\nThis tender-driven model makes project eligibility, execution experience and participation across different infrastructure categories important elements of the company’s operating profile. Management has indicated that its tender credentials have strengthened over time, allowing the company to quote for projects of around ₹100 crore on its own and up to around ₹200 crore through joint ventures.\r\nGrowth in Scale Has Been Accompanied by a Broader Project Footprint\r\nVL’s operating scale has increased materially over the last few years. Revenue from operations rose from\r\n₹45.56 crore in FY23 to ₹113.93 crore in FY24, ₹121.04 crore in FY25 and ₹149.74 crore in FY26.\r\nEBITDA increased from ₹4.80 crore in FY23 to ₹16.53 crore in FY26, while PAT increased from ₹2.21 crore to\r\n₹8.42 crore over the same period. In FY26, revenue grew 23.76% year-on-year, EBITDA increased 25.67% and PAT increased 19.94%.\r\nThe company’s project footprint has also broadened geographically. In FY26, Gujarat accounted for 67.16% of revenue, Telangana 18.16% and Madhya Pradesh 13.38%, with the balance coming from other markets. This represents a broader geographic mix than in FY24, when Gujarat contributed approximately 90% of revenue.\r\nManagement has also indicated that the company evaluates tenders across Gujarat, Madhya Pradesh and Telangana depending on project requirements and eligibility, including opportunities in water-supply and irrigation departments.\r\nOrder Book and Joint Ventures Add Project Visibility\r\nVL Infraprojects closed FY26 with an order book of ₹217.64 crore, providing a strong base of executable projects and visibility for future revenue growth. The company indicated an execution period of approximately 12–18 months for the order book. In the investor interaction, management said it had quoted around ₹100 crore of tenders during the month discussed, with a further ₹62 crore tender to be quoted, and was targeting around ₹200 crore of government tender opportunities during August and September. It also mentioned discussions for around ₹50 crore of private work.\r\nThe company has also used joint-venture structures to participate in larger projects. A Gujarat Water Infrastructure-related project had a total contract value of ₹74.44 crore, with VL holding a 31% share and its partner holding 69%. VL’s corresponding share of the contract value was approximately ₹23.08 crore.\r\nDiversification Is Visible in Customer and Geographic Mix\r\nThe company’s customer base has become more diversified over the past three years. According to the management investor interaction, the contribution of the top five customers declined from 80.50% in FY24 to 70.00% in FY25 and 43.12% in FY26.\r\nThe company’s revenue is also spread across multiple states. In FY26, Gujarat contributed 67.16% of revenue, followed by Telangana at 18.16% and Madhya Pradesh at 13.38%, while the remaining 1.18% came from other markets.\r\nManagement has explained that the company evaluates and participates in tenders across different states and departments, including projects related to water supply, irrigation and other infrastructure activities. Projects are undertaken based on the tenders for which the company qualifies and is selected.\r\nThe reduction in customer concentration and the presence of revenue across multiple states reflect the broader project base developed by the company in recent years. Management explained that tender participation is not restricted to a particular state or department; the company evaluates opportunities across locations such as Gujarat, Madhya Pradesh and Telangana according to project requirements and its credentials.\r\nThe Bigger Picture for VL Infraprojects\r\nIndia’s infrastructure spending is creating opportunities across a broad range of EPC categories. Water supply and wastewater infrastructure are among the largest areas of public investment, while buildings, roads and irrigation add further tender opportunities.\r\nVL Infraprojects sits within this wider ecosystem as a multi-segment EPC contractor. Water infrastructure currently represents the largest portion of its revenue, but the company’s own operating model is based on participating in tenders across locations and project categories and executing the projects it wins.\r\nIts recent financial performance, expansion beyond its earlier geographic concentration, lower top-five customer contribution and participation in standalone and JV projects provide a picture of an infrastructure contractor whose business mix is shaped by the tender opportunities it successfully converts into execution.\r\nFor investors evaluating the company, the key point is therefore not simply that VL is a water company.

Its hand block prints, Bandhani tie-dye and Leheriya waves have moved from local markets to office wear, college campuses and wedding functions across the country. The result is a crowded market, where machine-printed copies often sit beside genuine craft.\r\nSo what makes a Jaipuri kurti worth buying? Look for breathable natural fabrics like cotton and mul, prints with the slight irregularity that comes from hand blocks, and colours that soften rather than fade with each wash. Fit and size range matter just as much, because a beautiful print means little if the kurti doesn’t sit right.\r\nWith that in mind, here are six brands that stand out for Jaipuri kurtis and kurta sets in 2026.\r\n1. The Jaipur Studio\r\nThe Jaipur Studio has built its range around the crafts Jaipur is known for: Ajrakh, Bandhani, Leheriya, Kalamkari and hand block printing, often finished with hand embroidery, mirror work or appliqué. Fabrics lean towards comfort, with pure cotton, mul cotton, muslin and Kota Doria forming the core of the collection.\r\nWhat sets the brand apart is how it balances craft with everyday wearability. Its Jaipuri kurtis start at around ₹995, while festive kurta sets with dupatta cover occasions like Mehendi, Haldi and Diwali. Sizing runs from 38 to 58, with a dedicated plus-size range, which is still rare among craft-led labels. The brand works with Jaipur’s artisan community, whose legacy it traces back to 1950.\r\nBest for: Authentic Jaipuri prints in everyday and festive styles, with inclusive sizing.\r\n2. Anokhi\r\nAnokhi has been associated with Jaipur’s hand block printing since the 1970s and remains a reference point for the craft. Its kurtis favour soft cottons and classic floral and geometric blocks. The brand also runs a museum of hand printing near Amber Fort.\r\nBest for: Heritage block prints with a timeless, understated look.\r\n3. Fabindia\r\nFabindia sources textiles from artisan clusters across India, and its Jaipur-style block-printed kurtis are a staple of the range. With stores in most Indian cities, it is an easy place to try styles in person.\r\nBest for: Everyday cotton kurtis with wide store availability.\r\n4. Jaypore\r\nJaypore curates handcrafted fashion from different Indian craft traditions, including Rajasthani block prints and Bandhani. Its kurtis lean towards a contemporary, design-led aesthetic.\r\nBest for: Discovering different crafts in one place.\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n5. Gulabo Jaipur\r\nGulabo Jaipur is known for bright, cheerful block-printed clothing that plays with bold colours and playful motifs. It suits shoppers who want Jaipuri prints with a lively, youthful feel.\r\nBest for: Colourful, statement prints.\r\n6. Jaipur Kurti\r\nJaipur Kurti offers a large range of printed kurtis and kurta sets at accessible prices, with a strong presence on online marketplaces.\r\nBest for: Budget-friendly printed kurtis.\r\nHow to choose the right Jaipuri kurti\r\n\r\nCheck the fabric first. Cotton, mul and Kota Doria keep you cool in Indian weather; avoid heavy synthetics for daily wear.\r\nExpect some colour release. Natural-dye Bandhani and block prints may bleed slightly in the first wash. Wash them separately in cold water.\r\nRead the size chart. Brands differ widely, so compare your measurements rather than relying on S, M or L.\r\nMatch the print to the occasion. Indigo and floral blocks suit office and daily wear; Bandhani, Leheriya and embroidered sets work better for festive events.\r\n\r\nJaipur’s textile traditions are hundreds of years old, but the brands carrying them forward keep finding new ways to make them part of daily life. Whether you want an easy cotton kurti or a festive dupatta set, any of these six labels is a good place to start.\r\nIf you object to the content of this press release, please notify us at pr.error.rectification@gmail.com.

The next is transforming a founder-led enterprise into a professionally governed, publicly listed company capable of accessing capital at scale. This transition requires far more than an IPO: it calls for stronger governance, transparent disclosures, institutional readiness, credible valuation and the confidence of public-market investors.\r\nThis is the opportunity that Pantomath Capital is seeking to address as it expands its presence in India’s investment banking landscape. The homegrown investment bank has built its franchise around working with businesses at different stages of growth, helping entrepreneurs navigate the complex journey from private ownership to public-market participation.\r\nThe firm’s growing mandate portfolio spans established industrial businesses, infrastructure companies, power equipment manufacturers and emerging technology-led enterprises.\r\nPantomath’s list of marquee transactions, include, among others, the IPO of Sangli-based Quality Power Electrical Equipments whose shares have seen a stupendous rise since listing in February 2025. The issue price was fixed at Rs 425, and the stock is currently trading at Rs 1,553.\r\nThe coming days will see the IPO of Muzaffarnagar-based Silverton Industries, a company engaged in manufacturing and marketing of eco-friendly specialty paper. Further, the IPO of Zetwerk reflects Pantomath’s engagement with both established institutions and new-age businesses.\r\nBuilding investor confidence, one IPO at a time\r\nPantomath’s recent execution record offers a snapshot of the varied investor responses that public issues can attract. In calendar year 2025, Pantomath was among the top domestic bankers in terms of left lead mandates.\r\nTogether, these transactions show that public offerings are not uniform exercises: each company requires a distinct approach to investor education, valuation, positioning and execution.\r\nAs India’s IPO market expands, Pantomath is positioning itself to serve businesses whose ambitions extend beyond raising funds to building enduring public-market institutions.\r\nPreparing entrepreneurs for the public markets\r\nFor a privately held company, an IPO is a fundamental organisational transition. Financial reporting, corporate governance, internal controls, heightened disclosure obligations and a broader shareholder base are only some of the elements that need attention. Companies must also develop a compelling, evidence-based investment proposition and arrive at a valuation that balances growth ambitions with investor expectations.\r\nPantomath’s approach, according to its leadership, is to engage with businesses well before the transaction reaches the market. This includes helping promoters understand the requirements of public-market readiness, strengthening the investment narrative, coordinating with legal and audit professionals, and guiding the company through regulatory processes and investor engagement.\r\nCapital formation as a national growth imperative\r\nMahavir Lunawat, Chairman and Managing Director of Pantomath Capital, has consistently emphasised the structural opportunity presented by India’s expanding entrepreneurial base and domestic investment pool, especially mutual funds and retail investors.\r\nAt a recently held conference by the Association of Investment Bankers of India (AIBI), Mr Lunawat, who is also the chairman of the body representing merchant banks, said that India’s primary market has moved well beyond an episodic fundraising cycle and the market today has a ₹3.86 lakh crore pipeline, including around ₹2.43 lakh crore from companies that have received SEBI approval and another ₹1.44 lakh crore from companies awaiting approval.\r\nThe projection underscores his view that capital formation is not merely a financial-market activity. It enables companies to expand capacity, invest in technology, generate employment and participate in India’s economic development.\r\nPublic markets, when supported by credible disclosures, appropriate pricing and investor confidence, can connect entrepreneurial ambition with long-term pools of domestic and international capital. Not to forget the robust role played by the Securities and Exchange Board of India (SEBI).\r\nAs India’s capital markets deepen, Pantomath’s ambition is to strengthen its position as a trusted homegrown investment banking institution; one that helps promising Indian businesses become investment-ready public companies and contributes to the country’s next phase of growth.\r\nIf you object to the content of this press release, please notify us at pr.error.rectification@gmail.com.

Its BMW approach, Beyond Money &amp;amp; Wealth, values continuity, a trusted single point of contact and conversations that are not sales-first. True to its philosophy, “For Families • By a Family,” The next generation is now working alongside the founder across mutual funds, insurance, alternatives, global investments and loans.

Strengthening generations.\r\nBeyond Money &amp;amp; Wealth: A Family-First Approach to Legacy\r\nHaardik Nayak Financial Products Distribution Pvt. Ltd. has spent over 32 years building its practice in Navsari, a Tier-3 city near Surat, Gujarat, on a simple belief: wealth management is about relationships that compound across generations.\r\nThe group calls its philosophy BMW, Beyond Money &amp;amp; Wealth. Today’s families look for continuity, a trusted single point of contact and conversations that are not sales-first. Guided by the idea “For Families • By a Family,” the firm is nurturing its next generation from within. Nirek, a commerce graduate, leads Mutual Funds and Insurance.

It is meant to strengthen family relationships.\r\nInspiring trust since 1994. Building legacies. Strengthening generations.\r\nBeyond Money &amp;amp; Wealth: Building Legacies That Last Generations\r\nIn an industry often driven by products and targets, Haardik Nayak Financial Products Distribution Pvt. Ltd. has chosen a different starting point: people. For over 32 years, the Haardik Nayak Group has grown from Navsari, a Tier-3 city near Surat, Gujarat, on the belief that wealth management is about relationships that compound across generations.\r\nThe BMW Philosophy\r\nThe group describes its approach as BMW, Beyond Money &amp;amp; Wealth. Successful families today increasingly look for more than financial products. They value continuity across generations, a trusted single point of contact and guidance that does not begin with a sales pitch. By placing a family’s long-term goals and conversations at the centre, the firm aims to be a steady partner through every stage of life. This reflects a belief that trust is built through consistency, patience and open communication over many years, not through a single transaction.\r\nFor Families • By a Family\r\nThe firm’s own structure reflects its philosophy, as the next generation is being built within the founding family itself. Nirek, a commerce graduate, leads Mutual Funds and Insurance. The founder’s daughter, a psychotherapist, brings the human dimension to family conversations, recognising that money decisions are rarely only about numbers. CA Bhavya Shah, the founder’s son-in-law, leads Alternatives, Global Investments and Loans. Together, they offer families a team that understands planning across generations because it is doing the same.\r\nCalm Farm: A Place to Pause\r\nBelieving that legacy needs a place where families can pause, talk and reconnect, the group is creating Calm Farm, an experience centre designed to bring families together, strengthen relationships and thoughtfully build legacies. Away from a conventional office setting, it is intended to make conversations about the future more open, honest and unhurried. Families may use the space to discuss values, responsibilities and aspirations together in a relaxed environment.\r\nA Legacy of Trust\r\nSince 1994, the group’s journey has been shaped by long-term relationships rather than short-term transactions. As the next generation takes on greater responsibilities, its commitment remains consistent: listen first, communicate clearly and keep the family at the centre of every conversation. At a time when many families are navigating wealth across generations, such continuity matters.\r\nInspiring trust since 1994. Building legacies.

An ARC flash is an explosion-like electrical event in which temperatures can reach up to 25,000°C, potentially exposing workers to intense heat, molten metal and particles. Such risks can arise across electrical panels, motors, power grids, energy distribution systems and during electrical maintenance.\r\nPERF’s range is designed for power generation and distribution, data centres, mining, steel and aluminium, oil &amp;amp; gas, refineries, petrochemicals, foundries and other industrial applications where workers can be exposed to extreme heat, flame or electrical hazards.\r\nA key differentiator of the new range is its biogenic IFR material, developed as an alternative to conventional man-made fibres such as para-aramid, meta-aramid, and FR viscos. The natural fibre-based material is designed to combine the protection required for high-risk environments with properties associated with natural fabrics, including softness, breathability and comfort. The softness makes the fabric more comfortable against the skin during extended working hours, while its breathability allows better airflow and helps manage heat and moisture. Together, these properties are intended to make the protective apparel more comfortable to wear for long periods and support consistent use of PPE.\r\nThe material, named EXCO, is the result of seven years of R&amp;amp;D undertaken collaboratively by PERF and an Italian technology partner, with the material undergoing multiple rounds of testing to ensure it meets the required standards. The fabric is manufactured in India, with PERF positioning the launch as an example of advanced protective technology being developed and produced domestically.\r\nThe material is also claimed to be up to 99.9% biodegradable, reflecting PERF’s focus on reducing the environmental impact associated with protective workwear made from conventional man-made fibres.\r\n“The development of EXCO has been driven by a simple question: can we provide workers with the high level of protection required in industries such as power, mining, data centres, metal and oil &amp;amp; gas without compromising on the breathability, comfort, softness and environmental considerations of the material? We have spent seven years on R&amp;amp;D in collaboration with our Italian partner to develop a biogenic IFR material that brings together inherent flame resistance, the feel and breathability of a natural fibre, and up to 99.9% biodegradability. The fact that the fabric is produced in India also makes this an important step towards building advanced protective technology locally,” said Hammad Rahman, CEO, PERF.\r\nThe company believes the technology can address a growing requirement for protective apparel that goes beyond basic compliance, particularly as industries expand their electrical infrastructure and focus more closely on worker safety and sustainability.\r\nThe seven-year India-Italy R&amp;amp;D collaboration was led by Enrico Bonafini, who headed the research and development effort behind EXCO, working closely with PERF to develop and refine the biogenic IFR material for industrial protective applications.\r\n“Our objective with this development was not simply to create another protective fabric. We wanted to develop a material that could meet the demanding requirements of technical protective apparel while offering the characteristics of a natural fibre. The seven-year R&amp;amp;D journey, together with PERF, has allowed us to work on the materialextensively and test it multiple times to ensure that protection and usability remain at the centre of the product,” said Enrico Bonafini.\r\nWith the launch of EXCO protective workwear, PERF aims to support industries in adopting risk-based protective solutions that consider worker safety, comfort and environmental impact alongside technical performance.\r\nIf you object to the content of this press release, please notify us at pr.error.rectification@gmail.com.

Open space, lakes and quick access to employment hubs are reshaping how families choose a home.\r\nDeveloped by Assetz Property Group in Kalkere, North-East Bengaluru, the project is awaiting RERA registration. Here is what is driving interest in the corridor, and what buyers should verify before shortlisting any home.\r\nWhy 3 &amp;amp; 4 BHK Homes Are in Demand\r\nHybrid work has changed what households expect from their homes. A corner desk has become a dedicated home office. Growing families want separate rooms for children and visiting parents without moving farther from work.\r\nThat shift is lifting interest in 4 BHK flats in Bangalore, particularly among luxury apartments in North Bangalore. Larger land parcels there allow lower-density planning and more shared green space.\r\nBuyers are also weighing lifestyle factors more carefully. Landscaped open areas, walking tracks and community spaces now sit alongside bedroom count when families compare options, especially households with young children or older relatives.\r\nSurvey data support the trend. According to Anarock’s H1 2026 homebuyer sentiment survey, as reported by Outlook Money, Bengaluru recorded the highest preference for 4 BHK and larger homes among the cities surveyed, at 10%.\r\nThe Hennur–Horamavu Advantage\r\nLocation is the other half of the story. Assetz Twin Lake City is about 4 km from the Outer Ring Road, 3 km from the Hennur Road junction, 6 km from KR Puram and 8 km from Manyata Tech Park. Kempegowda International Airport is a 35–45 minute drive, depending on traffic.\r\nFor professionals working across North and East Bengaluru, that mix explains why flats on Hennur Road and flats in Horamavu are increasingly appearing on shortlists. The project’s Kalkere location keeps daily commutes manageable while leaving room for larger layouts and open planning.\r\nSocial infrastructure is established nearby. Education options include National Public School, Hennur and CMR University. Cloudnine Hospital in HRBR Layout and Manipal Hospital in Hebbal serve healthcare needs.\r\nInside Assetz Twin Lake City: 3 &amp;amp; 4 BHK Floor Plans and Layout\r\nThe project occupies about 21 acres within an approximately 120-acre township. According to project details, the plan features two lakes and 86% open space, with towers of G+30 and G+34 floors.\r\nThe 3 BHK flats in Horamavu at this development measure 2,089 sq.ft. and 2,347 sq.ft., while the 4 BHK apartments measure 2,844 sq.ft. The Assetz Twin Lake City floor plans use a layout designed for cross-ventilation and natural light. Details are available in the project’s 3 &amp;amp; 4 BHK floor plans.\r\nLandscaped gardens, jogging tracks and recreation zones are built into the plan, reflecting a master plan layout that prioritises light, space and greenery over density.\r\nA 70,000 sq.ft. clubhouse anchors more than 55 amenities. These include a temperature-controlled swimming pool, gymnasium, spa, yoga room, sports courts and a jogging track.\r\n“Families looking at large homes today think about how a place feels, not just how it looks on paper. Open space, greenery and a sensible drive to work come up again and again when people talk to us about this corridor.”\r\n\r\nNithin M D, Director, Billionaire Dream Estate Pvt Ltd\r\n\r\nProject at a Glance\r\n\r\nLocation: Kalkere, Horamavu, North-East Bengaluru\r\nLand: About 21 acres within an approximately 120-acre township\r\nBHK types: 3 BHK (2,089 and 2,347 sq.ft.) and 4 BHK (2,844 sq.ft.)\r\nTowers: G+30 and G+34 floors\r\nMaster plan: Low-density layout built around two lakes\r\nOpen space: 86%, according to project details\r\nClubhouse: About 70,000 sq.ft., with 55+ amenities\r\nRERA: Registration awaited\r\n\r\nWhat Buyers Should Check\r\nAs interest grows, informed buyers should verify the following before committing to any home:\r\n\r\nRERA status: RERA registration for the project is currently awaited. Confirm registration on the official Karnataka RERA portal before any transaction.\r\nPossession timeline: Check the completion date declared in the RERA registration once it is available.\r\nTotal cost: Beyond the base cost, account for GST, stamp duty and registration charges.\r\nDeveloper track record: Review the developer’s previously delivered projects and delivery history, and read independent Assetz Twin Lake City reviews from verified buyers once they are available.\r\n\r\nComparing projects on these four points, rather than on size or location alone, helps buyers decide on verifiable facts. Developer claims can also be cross-checked against the information published on the RERA portal once registration is complete.\r\nFrequently Asked Questions\r\n\r\nWhere is Assetz Twin Lake City located? The project is in Kalkere, Horamavu, in North-East Bengaluru, about 3 km from the Hennur Road junction and 8 km from Manyata Tech Park.\r\nWhat 3 &amp;amp; 4 BHK options does Assetz Twin Lake City offer?

However, as the industry gains experience with the regulatory framework, questions are emerging over whether accountability should extend beyond developers to other stakeholders involved in the execution of real estate projects.\r\n“RERA rightly made developers accountable. Now the approving authorities need to be accountable too. Fair rules for every party will protect buyers better than one-sided rules ever can,” CEO Yogesh Dhanuka states.\r\nA real estate project typically involves multiple stakeholders, including government departments, municipal bodies, utility providers, financial institutions and environmental authorities. Delays in approvals, statutory clearances, utility connections or court proceedings can affect project timelines even when developers have completed their responsibilities.\r\nAccountability Must Extend Across the Project Lifecycle\r\nThe industry view emphasises that developers should face consequences for delays arising from inadequate planning, financial mismanagement, poor execution or failure to honour commitments. However, delays attributable to external agencies should be assessed separately through a transparent and independent mechanism.\r\n“Real estate development is a multi-agency process. A developer may be ready to deliver a project, but approvals, utility connections or other statutory clearances can lie beyond their control. Accountability must extend to every stakeholder in the chain, so that homebuyers are protected without penalising developers for delays they could not prevent,” Dhanuka Infra Realty Ltd CEO states.\r\nSuch an approach, it argues, would help distinguish between genuine developer defaults and delays caused by circumstances outside their reasonable control. It would also ensure that homebuyers receive appropriate protection without placing the entire burden of a multi-agency process on a single stakeholder.\r\nTransparency Without Compromising Commercial Confidentiality\r\nAnother area identified for reconsideration is the extent of commercial information disclosed publicly under the regulatory framework.\r\nAccess to information on land titles, statutory approvals, construction progress, possession timelines and project-related commitments is essential for buyers to make informed decisions. However, the industry view suggests that disclosure requirements should distinguish between information necessary for consumer protection and sensitive commercial information that may not directly influence a buyer’s decision.\r\n“Transparency is essential to building trust with homebuyers, but transparency should not mean that every commercial detail or engineering decision becomes public information. Buyers need clear information about approvals, project progress and delivery commitments. Detailed cost structures and proprietary designs, however, deserve reasonable safeguards against misuse,” Yogesh Dhanuka states.\r\nThe proposed approach would retain regulatory access to detailed project information while considering whether public disclosures could be limited to relevant summaries in certain areas. The objective would be to maintain accountability without unnecessarily exposing pricing strategies, project margins, inventory-related information or proprietary technical details.\r\nEscrow Rules and Construction Cash Flow\r\nThe industry perspective also highlights the practical implications of RERA’s requirement that developers deposit 70% of the amounts realised from homebuyers into a separate account for land and construction costs.\r\nWhile the provision is intended to safeguard buyer funds and prevent their diversion to unrelated projects, the timing of withdrawals can create operational challenges, particularly when developers need to make advance payments to suppliers for construction materials.\r\n“The intent behind ring-fencing 70 per cent of homebuyer collections is understandable and important. The practical challenge arises when developers must pay advances to suppliers for essential construction materials while withdrawals remain linked to certified work completed. A project-sensitive mechanism that safeguards buyer funds while accommodating genuine supplier advances could improve execution without compromising financial discipline,” the CEO of Dhanuka Infra Realty Ltd. states.\r\nA more flexible, appropriately monitored mechanism could help address legitimate procurement requirements while retaining safeguards against the misuse of homebuyer funds.\r\nA More Predictable Regulatory Framework\r\nThe broader recommendation is to refine RERA’s implementation rather than dilute its core objectives. Proportionate compliance requirements, balanced appeal mechanisms and time-bound approvals could help improve predictability for both buyers and developers.\r\n“Protecting homebuyers and enabling responsible real estate development are not competing objectives. Developers who default must face consequences, but the regulatory framework should also provide proportionate compliance, balanced appeal mechanisms and time-bound approvals. A fair and predictable system will strengthen buyer confidence while allowing genuine developers to deliver projects more efficiently,” Yogesh Dhanuka adds.\r\nAs India’s housing market evolves, the next phase of RERA could focus on ensuring that responsibility follows control, disclosures remain meaningful and regulatory processes account for the practical realities of construction.\r\nThe central objective, Yogesh Dhanuka concludes, should be a system that protects homebuyers, holds defaulting developers accountable and enables responsible businesses to complete projects efficiently. A balanced framework could strengthen trust across the sector while supporting more predictable and sustainable real estate development.\r\nIf you object to the content of this press release, please notify us at pr.error.rectification@gmail.com.

As one of the league’s principal sponsors, the film supported a pioneering initiative that brought six teams of differently abled players together to celebrate sporting excellence, determination and human potential.\r\nPresented as a landmark first for Indian cricket, the league sought to increase visibility and recognition for para-cricketers while challenging perceptions of disability and demonstrating that talent, ambition and a love of sport know no boundaries.\r\nThe partnership between Children of God and the league was rooted in a shared belief: every human being deserves equal dignity, opportunity and respect.\r\n“We Are Born with Equality”: Aushim Khetrapal\r\nSpeaking about the film’s association with the league, Aushim Khetrapal said:\r\n“Children of God is not merely a film; it is a message to society. These differently abled sportspersons are also children of God. They possess extraordinary courage, talent and determination, and deserve to be recognised as equal citizens of our country. We must build a more empathetic, inclusive and supportive society, where disability never becomes a reason to deny anyone dignity or opportunity.\r\n“We are born with equality. This is the thought at the heart of Children of God. Through cinema and sport, we want people to look beyond disability and recognise the human being, talent and spirit within.”\r\nThe film aims to encourage audiences to reconsider attitudes towards disability and embrace a more compassionate and inclusive India.\r\nRaadhika Khetarpal: A Major Step Forward for Para Sports and Cricket Fan experience \r\nRaadhika Khetarpal, co – creator of the Radiant event, described the league and its broadcast reach as a significant step towards mainstream recognition for differently abled athletes.\r\nShe said: “The Radiant World Para Cricket League and its live telecast on Doordarshan, Waves and the Voice of Differently Abled channels represent a major leap forward for para cricket and para sports. The objective is not simply to organise a cricket tournament, but to create visibility, inspire confidence and give these extraordinary athletes the recognition they deserve along with give the fans around the world another way of experiencing elite entertainment.\r\n“The association with Children of God makes this initiative even more meaningful. The film’s message and the spirit of the league complement each other. When audiences see these athletes on the cricket field and connect with their stories through cinema, we hope it will encourage greater acceptance, participation and equal opportunity.”\r\n\r\nThe live broadcast extended the league’s reach beyond the stadium, allowing wider audiences to witness the athletes’ skill and determination.\r\n195 not out in 74 balls: A World Record That Captured National Attention: The league also drew attention to a remarkable individual batting performance highlighted on social media by Meenakashi Lekhi, former Union Minister.\r\nSouth African cricketer Lhuan-dré Pretorius scored 188 runs for the Titans against the Knights on October 2, 2026, in a landmark innings in South African domestic cricket. The performance became part of a wider conversation about record-breaking achievements and the growing visibility of para cricket.\r\nThe recognition reinforced the Radiant initiative’s broader message: sporting excellence deserves a platform, and athletes, cricketers should be celebrated for their achievements.\r\nThought provoking Cinema along with entertainment is first of its kind. With film Children of God set to release on November 27, Children of God aims to carry the league’s message to audiences across India. Its association with the event demonstrates how cinema, daily life decisions, and sport can work together to promote awareness and inspire change.\r\nBy bringing the stories and spirit of differently abled athletes into public conversations.\r\n ","articleSection":"Lifestyle","datePublished":"2026-10-13T14:48:41+0530","dateModified":"2026-10-13T14:56:52+0530","inLanguage":"en-us","author":{"@type":"Person","name":"Correspondent Desk","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com/user/marudharabharti"},"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Marudhara Bharti English","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com/uploads/logo/logo_6ab9270c36c334-01124948.png"}},"image":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhONFxALeUMokRiz_7NNQrxqMfCMUvIpCnAvCQcgZgoRWBvpH1gDKBT_rk9C1ovANmJUvDu3TcNlfZ7BYIKJjTgyUPvHbjEp3exceTg66EXAjM2vGR9CSb3e1f6C6xENK7Sy8O71-wfGbQwg4CigQBZtjPIPBQiQT3dzcJiec0H551ja8HMc56iOQcZavui/w1600/image.jpeg","contentUrl":"https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhONFxALeUMokRiz_7NNQrxqMfCMUvIpCnAvCQcgZgoRWBvpH1gDKBT_rk9C1ovANmJUvDu3TcNlfZ7BYIKJjTgyUPvHbjEp3exceTg66EXAjM2vGR9CSb3e1f6C6xENK7Sy8O71-wfGbQwg4CigQBZtjPIPBQiQT3dzcJiec0H551ja8HMc56iOQcZavui/w1600/image.jpeg"},"keywords":["Children","God","Shines","Historic","Radiant","World","Para","Cricket","League","Agra","Film","Release","November","27","","2026"]}</script>

You&#039;ve spent weeks, and a fair bit of money, on a brand-new website. It looks sharp. Your friends love it. Then the launch buzz fades, and what&#039;s left is a very quiet inbox.\r\nIf that sounds familiar, you&#039;re in good company. At Scenecoding, we hear this story from Bangalore business owners all the time. And the fix is almost never &quot;a prettier homepage.&quot;\r\nA website is a salesperson, not a brochure\r\nHere&#039;s the shift that changes everything: your website isn&#039;t there to be admired. It&#039;s there to start conversations. Every page should quietly answer one question for a stranger: &quot;Can I trust these people, and what do I do next?&quot;\r\nWhen a site doesn&#039;t generate inquiries, it&#039;s usually down to one of three things.\r\n1.  It was designed to impress, not to convert.\r\nHeavy sliders, a hidden phone number, a contact form that goes nowhere. Most visitors are on a phone, often on patchy 4G, and they decide within seconds. If calling or messaging you takes more than one tap, they&#039;re gone.\r\n2.  Nobody can find it.\r\nA beautiful site that doesn&#039;t show up on Google is a shop with a boarded-up front door. Unique page titles, clean structure, a properly set-up Google Business Profile, and fast loading speeds aren&#039;t &quot;extras.&quot; They&#039;re how the right people stumble onto you when they&#039;re already searching for what you sell.\r\n3.  The traffic lands in the wrong place.\r\nThis one hurts the most. Businesses spend on Google or Instagram ads and send everyone to the homepage, hoping visitors will figure it out. They won&#039;t. An ad needs a specific landing page built for that one promise, with one clear next step.\r\nWhat a hard-working website actually has\r\nYou don&#039;t need anything overly complicated. You just need the basics done properly:\r\nA mobile-first layout that loads fast and keeps your phone number front and center.\r\nClick-to-call and WhatsApp buttons that actually work, using the same number as your Google listing.\r\nPages written to answer the real questions your customers ask, rather than generic corporate filler.\r\nAnalytics and Google Search Console connected from day one (so you can see exactly how Google and your customers view your site).\r\nA clear path on every single page: call, chat, or fill out the form.\r\nNotice that none of this is glamorous. It&#039;s just the difference between a site that sits there and a site that actively works for you.\r\nWhy websites alone won&#039;t cut it\r\nBuilding the site is only half the battle. You need traffic, visibility, and people to actually walk through your digital front door.\r\nThat&#039;s where complete digital marketing comes in—and that&#039;s where most traditional agencies drop the ball. They build a site, hand it off, and expect you to figure out search rankings, social media, and ads on your own. None of the pieces talk to each other.\r\nHow we do complete digital marketing differently\r\nAt Scenecoding, we treat your website as just one piece of a much bigger system. We cover every angle of how people find you, trust you, and buy from you—all working together from our office in Bangalore.\r\nHere&#039;s what that complete system looks like in practice:\r\n\r\n\r\nYour Digital Homebase: We build fast, mobile-first websites designed to act as your foundation—built specifically to capture interest and convert visitors into real leads.\r\n\r\n\r\nOrganic Visibility &amp;amp; Trust: We structure your site and write helpful content so you naturally climb Google&#039;s search results without paying for clicks. We also optimize your local profiles to capture reviews and word-of-mouth reputation.\r\n\r\n\r\nCommunity Connection: We ensure your social media presence effectively connects with your audience, keeping your brand top-of-mind and driving interested people back to your site.\r\n\r\n\r\nTargeted Campaigns: We build highly targeted Google and Instagram ad campaigns that send ready-to-buy traffic straight to pages designed specifically to capture them.\r\n\r\n\r\nTracking &amp;amp; Ownership: Analytics are wired up from day one so you see exactly what is working. No finger-pointing, no silos—just one team owning the entire system and driving one result.\r\n\r\n\r\nIt&#039;s also why our work is measured in actual inquiries and enrollments rather than vanity numbers. Here is what happens when the entire system is connected:\r\n\r\nNone of those wins came from a fancier design. They came from joining the dots across the entire digital marketing system—website, search visibility, social engagement, ads, and the customer journey.\r\nNot sure where your website stands?\r\nHonestly, taking a step back to look at the whole picture is the best place to start. You rarely need a full rebuild to find out what&#039;s holding your business back. Sometimes it&#039;s a handful of fixable things: a slow page, a missing title, or an ad pointing at the wrong link.\r\nThat&#039;s why we offer a free audit. We look at your current website, your Google presence, and your ads. Then, we point out the gaps in plain English and sketch a simple plan you can actually act on. No pressure, no ticket queue. You can even reach us on WhatsApp and get a real reply from a real person.\r\nReady to find out what your website could be doing for you? Book free audit with Scenecoding or message them on WhatsApp and turn your website into the hardest-working person on your team.\r\nAboutScenecoding\r\nFounded by Vasanth Kumar, Scenecoding is a Bangalore-based digital agency handling your complete digital marketing—websites, organic search visibility, social engagement, paid ads, local profiles, and analytics.

While enterprise technology leaders are converging on the same three defensive priorities, the market reality shows severe talent demand supply friction across implementation partners and internal teams alike.\r\nPART ONE: DEMAND — Analyzing Cybersecurity CISO Intent Across 100+ Enterprise Leaders\r\nBased on proprietary cybersecurity talent intelligence drawn from direct consultations with sitting CISOs, security directors, and technology heads across banking, manufacturing, energy, and digital services (Q3–Q4 2026).\r\nPriority 1: Endpoint Detection and Response — 61% Named It Top Three\r\nThis marks the highest single-category concentration in our talent demand supply index to date. The underlying driver is not a novel exploit family, but a fundamental realignment in attack vectors.\r\nThe Sophos State of Ransomware 2026 report, surveying 2,158 organizations across 17 countries, established that ransomware delivery mechanics have altered significantly. Email-borne attacks (26%) and weaponized phishing campaigns (24%) have officially outpaced software vulnerabilities (18%) as primary initial access vectors — reversing a multi-year trajectory.\r\nStrategic takeaway: Endpoint security is no longer merely a device-management exercise; it is an identity, human, and communication-channel problem. Enterprise leaders procuring endpoint tooling must recognize that the underlying challenge requires unified telemetry. CISOs addressing this proactively are coupling endpoint and identity architectures together, heading off the budget bloat and integration delays of two distinct procurement cycles.\r\nPriority 2: Identity and Access Management — 54%, Rapid Acceleration\r\nIAM has transitioned from an IT operations ticket item into an urgent cybersecurity CISO intent signal. The empirical catalyst: research reveals that in 97% of ransomware incidents where credential compromise served as the root cause, multi-factor authentication was operational somewhere within the target environment.\r\nStrategic takeaway: Having MFA operational somewhere is fundamentally distinct from achieving complete enterprise surface coverage. The primary deficit is not tool licensing — it is architectural coverage mapping. Most organizations cannot pinpoint which legacy endpoints, internal APIs, and service accounts remain unprotected. The requirement is not simple MFA rollout; it is comprehensive gap remediation, requiring specialized cybersecurity talent to audit and bridge identity silos.\r\n“The board asked whether MFA was enabled, and the operational checklist said yes. Nobody probed where it remained absent across legacy architectures. That blind spot proved to be the exact vulnerability vector.”\r\n— CISO, Tier-2 Financial Institution\r\nPriority 3: Cloud Security Posture Management — 46%, Steady Intent\r\nDemand remains consistent, though near-term execution is deferring to contract cadences. CISOs indicate execution schedules will align with Q1/Q2 annual enterprise cloud renewals. This positioning makes cloud security posture the rare domain where strategic demand remains elevated, yet near-term implementation urgency remains calm.\r\nPriority 4: Security Operations Automation — 39%, Transitioning from Planning to Execution\r\nThe percentage contraction from 52% in prior cycles reflects healthy maturity rather than deprioritization. Projects initiated in earlier quarters have shifted from strategic roadmaps into operational engineering — signaling an established category absorbing steady capacity.\r\nPriority 5: OT and Industrial Control Security — 25%, Mandate-Driven Surge\r\nCybersecurity CISO intent across industrial and utility operations is largely anchored in compliance obligations, driven by mandates like the CEA Cyber Security in Power Sector Regulations 2026. Non-power critical infrastructure operators are closely auditing their programs as cross-sector compliance mandates expand.\r\n“The regulatory deadline triggered a simultaneous market rush. Because organizations approached the same tier of OT systems integrators, premium deployment capacity was exhausted almost immediately.”\r\n— VP of Infrastructure Security, Regional Power Provider\r\nPART TWO: SUPPLY — Mapping Cybersecurity Talent Availability Across Integrators\r\nContinuous cybersecurity talent intelligence derived from ongoing assessments of 68 managed security services providers (MSSPs), systems integrators, and elite advisory firms tracking real-time bench availability, engineering capacity, and project allocations.\r\nThe Core Finding: Diverging Talent Demand Supply Curves\r\nIn the two domains dominating cybersecurity CISO intent — endpoint detection and IAM — experienced, unallocated cybersecurity talent has reached annual lows. Conversely, segments with available engineering capacity, such as cloud security reviews, are being deferred by buyers until upcoming quarters.\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nDomain\r\nCISO Intent Rank\r\nMarket Talent Availability\r\n\r\n\r\nEndpoint Detection &amp;amp; Response\r\n#1 (61%)\r\nSeverely Constrained\r\n\r\n\r\nIdentity &amp;amp; Access Management (IAM)\r\n#2 (54%)\r\nCritical Bottleneck\r\n\r\n\r\nCloud Security Posture (CSPM)\r\n#3 (46%)\r\nHigh Availability (Q4)\r\n\r\n\r\nSecOps Automation (SOAR)\r\n#4 (39%)\r\nMaturing / Moderate\r\n\r\n\r\nOT &amp;amp; Industrial Security\r\n#5 (25%)\r\nFully Booked (Regulation)\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nEndpoint Detection &amp;amp; Response | #1 (61%) | Severely Constrained |\r\nIdentity &amp;amp; Access Management (IAM) | #2 (54%) | Critical Bottleneck |\r\nCloud Security Posture (CSPM) | #3 (46%) | High Availability (Q4) |\r\nSecOps Automation (SOAR) | #4 (39%) | Maturing / Moderate |\r\nOT &amp;amp; Industrial Security | #5 (25%) | Fully Booked (Regulation) |\r\nEndpoint Detection and Response: Broad Offerings, Narrow Sector Experience\r\nAcross 68 tracked integration practices, 41 maintain deployment teams capable of mobilising within 4–6 weeks. However, only 14 possess referenceable track records delivering within heavily regulated financial services or healthcare perimeters. Navigating stringent compliance constraints, data residency mandates, and enterprise SOC handoffs routinely adds 3–4 weeks to project lead times when teams encounter them without sector experience.\r\nTalent intelligence insight: Procurement vetting must look beyond high-level capabilities to verify named engineering personnel who have executed within the specific regulatory sector.\r\nIdentity and Access Management: The Capacity Bottleneck\r\nAmong the 68 tracked firms, 29 have zero uncommitted IAM delivery capacity through Q2 2027. The remaining 39 operate with fragmented allocation, leaving lead architects stretched thin across concurrent engagements.\r\nTalent intelligence insight: The speed of IAM adoption has outpaced the pipeline of seasoned engineers. Practices that maintained modest specialist teams have seen market requests double without an equivalent influx of qualified practitioners. Enterprises engaging IAM projects must ensure their provider provides experienced architects rather than generalist security engineers learning identity controls on site.\r\n“Our integrator committed to an early start date, but that only covered administrative onboarding. The actual identity architects were tied up on another enterprise migration for ninety days. That lag was never surfaced during the RFP.”\r\n— Head of Identity &amp;amp; Access, Multinational Banking Group\r\nOT and Industrial Security: Compliance Absorbency\r\nAcross 42 tracked practices with dedicated operational technology security groups, deployable bench capacity dropped by 38% between July and October 2026. Twelve firms with unallocated personnel in Q3 are committed into late 2027.\r\nTalent intelligence insight: Hard compliance deadlines and enforcement clauses naturally capture top-tier engineering talent. Unregulated or voluntary security modernization initiatives risk being staffed with secondary benches unless access to proven specialists is secured early.\r\nCloud Security Posture: The Contrarian Sourcing Window\r\nFifty-four of the 68 monitored providers currently report open availability across their cloud posture and architecture practices. With general enterprise demand slated for procurement cycles in early 2027, Q4 presents an opportune buyer’s window.\r\nTalent intelligence insight: Initiating cloud security posture reviews while broader enterprise demand is low enables buyers to secure premier architectural teams ahead of the Q1–Q2 annual renewal rush.\r\nSecurity Operations Automation: Experienced Capacity Coming to Market\r\nAs multi-year SOAR and automation rollouts wrap up, delivery practices that expanded through 2024–2025 are seeing seasoned engineers return to the bench. Organizations entering the automation market now can tap practitioners with battle-tested deployment experience rather than theoretical tool certifications.\r\nTalent Intelligence: Market Realities for Enterprise Leaders\r\n\r\nDeployment Lead Times: Across tier-one service providers, the window between contract signature and actual deployment of named, senior engineering talent averages 6–9 weeks.\r\nRegulatory Prioritization: Compliance-mandated deadlines consistently monopolize premier engineering teams across providers, leaving discretionary modernization projects to navigate thinner bench depth.\r\nBoutique Availability vs. Large Integrator Backlogs: Mid-market and specialized boutique security firms currently reflect higher proportions of uncommitted senior talent across core domains compared to global multi-practice integrators whose teams remain tied up in long-term programs.\r\n\r\nMethodology\r\n\r\nCybersecurity CISO Intent Data: Sourced via structured qualitative interviews and quarterly surveys with 100+ cybersecurity decision-makers (CISOs, CIOs, and SVPs of Security) across banking, energy, manufacturing, and tech services (Q3–Q4 2026).\r\nCybersecurity Talent Intelligence &amp;amp; Supply Data: Continuous capacity tracking across 68 systems integrators, MSSPs, and boutique security consulting firms evaluating bench utilization, domain certifications, active allocations, and projected roll-offs.\r\nReferenced Research: Sophos State of Ransomware 2026; Central Electricity Authority (CEA) Cyber Security in Power Sector Regulations 2026.\r\n\r\nAbout Analyst Layer\r\nAnalyst Layer delivers actionable talent intelligence and enterprise technology advisory, tracking real-world talent demand supply metrics through continuous engagement with enterprise executives and global delivery ecosystems.

Formulated to provide the highest level of water repellency across the brand’s portfolio, Pure Bead introduces an extreme hydrophobic barrier engineered to keep vehicles visibly cleaner for longer under demanding road conditions.\r\nPure Bead establishes an immediate molecular bond across vehicle surfaces, creating intense surface tension that forces water to bead tightly and roll off rapidly. This fast roll-off action\r\nprevents moisture, road grime, environmental fallout, and fine dust from adhering to panels, significantly reducing regular wash frequency and easing routine vehicle maintenance.\r\nA defining breakthrough of Pure Bead lies in its foolproof application. Unlike conventional ceramic spray products that can be temperamental to over application or require meticulous buffing techniques, Pure Bead guarantees a completely streak-free finish regardless of volume used. Car Owners simply spray the formula onto panels and wipe it clean with a microfiber cloth, achieving high-gloss clarity without hazing, high spots, smearing, or guesswork.\r\nEngineered as a versatile multi-surface solution, the formulation requires no specialized tools, heat lamps, or professional bay training. It performs safely and effectively across both gloss and matte paint finishes, vinyl wraps, and paint protection films. The chemistry extends full environmental protection to exterior glass, mirrors, plastic moldings, metal badges, and rubber trims without staining or leaving powdery chalk residues.\r\nHighlighting the product’s role in the Indian market, Dibya Swarup Panigrahi, Marketing Director, Turtle Wax India &amp;amp; ASEAN, stated, “Vehicle ownership in India is deeply tied to personal pride and family milestones, yet our Car Owners face tough realities with intense sun, seasonal monsoons, and airborne dust. Pure Bead directly addresses these daily conditions. It provides professional-grade hydrophobic defense in a simple spray-and-wipe format that anyone can use with total confidence. Whether applied by a weekend DIY enthusiast at home or used across our studio bays as an added layer of preservation, Pure Bead sets a practical standard for modern car care.”\r\nThe product launch coincides with Turtle Wax celebrating 80 years of global surface innovation, marked by an official visit to Bengaluru by Global Chief Executive Officer Laurie King. During her visit, King highlighted the brand’s rapid regional expansion, with Turtle Wax scaling past 110 co-branded Car Care Studios across the country alongside plans to add over 50 more studios in the coming year.\r\nHybrid Solutions® Pure Bead is now launched exclusively on Amazon India during the Amazon Great Indian Festival. The product will be available across Turtle Wax Car Care studios and retail outlets during the Diwali season.\r\nIf you object to the content of this press release, please notify us at pr.error.rectification@gmail.com.

Over the past decade, countries have competed to build digital economies through connectivity, software innovation, and data-driven services. Today, the focus is shifting toward something deeper: the infrastructure required to power AI itself.\r\nMuch like energy resources shaped economic and geopolitical influence in previous decades, AI infrastructure is beginning to play a similar role. Compute capacity, data centres, semiconductors, and cloud platforms are becoming critical building blocks for economic growth, technological competitiveness, and national resilience. According to Next Move Strategy Consulting’s report, the global Sovereign AI Infrastructure Market was valued at USD 61.4 billion in 2025 and is projected to reach USD 726.58 billion by 2035, reflecting the growing importance countries are placing on domestic AI capabilities.\r\nThe New Fuel Behind the AI Economy\r\nThe rapid adoption of Generative AI, Enterprise AI, and large language models has triggered an unprecedented surge in demand for computing resources. Training and running advanced AI models requires thousands of GPUs, high-performance storage systems, advanced networking infrastructure, and massive data centre capacity.\r\nThis growing demand is reshaping investment priorities worldwide. Governments across LATAM, EMEA and APAC are investing heavily in AI infrastructure, data centres, semiconductor manufacturing, and sovereign cloud ecosystems. Increasingly, nations are recognising that relying entirely on foreign infrastructure for AI development could create long-term economic and strategic dependencies.\r\nThe conversation is no longer limited to software innovation. It is now about who owns the infrastructure that powers AI, where data is processed, and how future digital economies will be built.\r\nWhy Domestic Compute Capacity Matters\r\nAccess to computing power has become one of the most important requirements for AI development. Organisations building AI applications need reliable access to GPUs, cloud infrastructure, storage, and networking environments capable of supporting large-scale workloads.\r\nHowever, dependence on overseas infrastructure can create challenges around availability, latency, compliance, and data governance. As AI becomes embedded in sectors such as healthcare, finance, manufacturing, education, and government, the need for sovereign cloud, data residency, and locally governed infrastructure is becoming more important.\r\nThis is particularly relevant for countries like India, where AI adoption is accelerating rapidly. Organisations increasingly want infrastructure that not only delivers performance but also aligns with local regulatory requirements and keeps critical workloads closer to where data is generated and consumed.\r\nIndia’s Opportunity in the AI Infrastructure Era\r\nIndia has already demonstrated its ability to build digital public infrastructure at scale through initiatives such as Aadhaar, UPI, and ONDC. The next phase of growth may depend on whether the country can build similar capabilities in AI infrastructure.\r\nThe government has already taken important steps through the IndiaAI Mission, while private sector investments in data centres, cloud computing, and AI-ready infrastructure continue to grow. At the same time, demand for domestic compute resources is rising as enterprises move from AI experimentation to production-scale deployments.\r\nThis creates a significant opportunity for India’s cloud ecosystem. Building domestic GPU infrastructure, expanding cloud services, strengthening data centre capacity, and enabling secure AI workloads could help reduce dependence on overseas infrastructure while supporting the country’s growing AI ambitions.\r\nRahul Takkallapally, Co-Founder, BharathCloud, shared, “AI innovation ultimately depends on infrastructure. Models, applications, and AI services can only scale when organisations have reliable access to compute, storage, and secure cloud environments. The countries that invest in building that foundation today will be better positioned to participate in the AI economy of tomorrow.”\r\nBuilding the Foundations of the AI Economy\r\nThe long-term success of AI will depend on much more than algorithms alone. It will require investments in cloud infrastructure, AI compute, data centres, cybersecurity, and managed services that allow organisations to build, deploy, and scale AI applications efficiently.\r\nFor India, the opportunity is not simply about adopting AI. It is about creating an infrastructure ecosystem that enables AI innovation to happen within the country. As businesses increasingly prioritise sovereign AI, data governance, and local cloud infrastructure, demand for domestic compute capacity is likely to continue growing.\r\nThe global race for AI leadership is already underway. While software and models often attract the headlines, the real foundation lies beneath them. Just as energy infrastructure powered industrial economies, AI infrastructure is emerging as the foundation of the next digital economy. Just as energy infrastructure shaped economic power in the industrial era, AI infrastructure is poised to shape influence in the digital age. \r\nIf you object to the content of this press release, please notify us at pr.error.rectification@gmail.com.

The band is priced at ₹29,990, with an introductory offer price of ₹25,990. CIRQA offers up to 10 days of battery life and comes in four colors—Black, French Grey, Mauve and Captain Blue—with S/M and L/XL size options. Health, sleep, activity and recovery information can be viewed in the Garmin Connect smartphone app, without a mandatory subscription.\r\nGarmin India, CIRQA sold out approximately within four hours after going live in India. The band supports everyday health tracking alongside training features for runners, athletes and people building a regular fitness routine.\r\nNot everyone follows a fixed workout routine, but many still want to keep track of their health, fitness and recovery. Whether they are working, travelling or managing everyday tasks, CIRQA brings activity, sleep, stress and recovery information together, helping them understand how their daily routine affects their wellbeing. The idea is straightforward to wear the band and review the information when convenient. Without a display on the wrist, users can follow their routine without repeatedly checking numbers. It also provides a health-tracking option for those who prefer wearing a traditional watch.\r\nCIRQA measures 27 × 47 × 9 mm and weighs approximately 21 grams with its wristband. It features a fibre-reinforced polymer case and a replaceable Comfort Fit fabric strap. The S/M size fits wrists measuring 120–200 mm, while L/XL fits 145–240 mm. Its 5 ATM water-resistance rating makes it suitable for swimming.\r\nFor everyday health tracking, CIRQA monitors wrist-based heart rate, stress, respiration and blood oxygen through Pulse Ox. Body Battery estimates energy reserves, helping users see how activity and rest affect their day. Women’s health features include menstrual cycle and pregnancy tracking.\r\nSleep tracking includes sleep stages, a sleep score, personalized sleep coaching and nap detection. The band also records heart rate variability and skin temperature during sleep, helping users review patterns over time.\r\nCIRQA supports more than 80 activities, including running, walking, cycling and yoga. Users can record activities through Garmin Connect or the band’s side button. Automatically detected activities can be reviewed and edited afterwards. Connected GPS uses a compatible smartphone to record outdoor routes, distance and pace, while Live Track enables location sharing during supported activities.\r\nTraining readiness, training status, VO₂ max estimates, workout benefit and recovery time provide additional information for planning exercise and rest. Garmin Connect works with compatible iPhone and Android smartphones. Core features require no subscription; optional Garmin Connect+ features are available separately.\r\nIf you object to the content of this press release, please notify us at pr.error.rectification@gmail.com.

Following this win, the Company’s unexecuted order book stands at ~ ₹1,400 crores with presence across 9 states, creating a stronger platform for sustained revenue growth and geographical expansion.\r\nScope of Project\r\nThe scope covers the development of new substations, HT/LT lines and distribution transformers, augmentation of existing infrastructure, underground cabling, renovation works, GIS mapping, asset tagging and other allied works.\r\nA Strategic Inflection Point\r\nSwastika independently participated in and was awarded this tender on the basis of its own financial and technical qualifications, built over 15 years of execution and successful work completion.\r\nAs the largest single order in the Company’s history, this ₹615.76 crore win significantly strengthens Swastika Infra’s credentials for larger and more complex projects, reinforcing its ambition to move decisively up the project value curve.\r\nImportantly, the Company has doubled its unexecuted order book from ₹687 crores in March to ~ ₹1,400 crores in October 2026, underscoring the rapid scale-up of its business.\r\nUnlocking a Larger Opportunity Pool\r\nThis order marks further expansion of Swastika Infra’s geographical footprint and strengthening its position as a multistate power infrastructure EPC player with operations across 9 states.\r\nMaharashtra is among India’s leading power-consuming states and, consequently, attracts high investment in the Power T&amp;amp;D sector.

View On Click Offers Photography, Videography and Drone Services Under One Roof in Noida and Delhi NCR","name":"Struggling to Showcase Your Property Professionally? View On Click Offers Photography, Videography and Drone Services Under One Roof in Noida and Delhi NCR","articleBody":"\r\nNoida (Uttar Pradesh) [India], October 9: Presenting a property to potential buyers, tenants or business clients is not always as simple as taking a few photographs and sharing them on WhatsApp. Property owners and real-estate professionals often spend considerable time arranging photographers, coordinating videographers, finding drone operators and following up for the final images and videos. Despite all these efforts, the final presentation may still fail to capture the property’s actual appeal.\r\nFor property owners, builders, real-estate agents and commercial property managers in Noida and Delhi NCR, creating a professional property presentation can become a time-consuming task. Recognising this challenge, View On Clickoffers property photography, videography and drone shoot services through one coordinated platform, helping customers arrange their property media without having to manage multiple service providers independently.\r\nThe service is designed for people who want to showcase residential properties, apartments, villas, commercial buildings, office spaces and real-estate projects with better-quality visual content.\r\nWhy Is It Difficult to Present a Property Properly Online?\r\nImagine a property owner who wants to rent out a premium apartment in Noida. A prospective tenant asks for photographs of the living room, bedrooms, kitchen, balcony and building exterior. The owner takes a few pictures on a mobile phone and shares them.\r\nHowever, the photographs appear dark, the rooms look smaller than they actually are, and some important details are missing. The prospective tenant asks for more photographs or a video walkthrough.\r\nThe owner now has another task to complete.\r\nA similar situation occurs when a real-estate broker wants to showcase a commercial property, a builder wants to present a newly completed project, or a property manager needs visual content for multiple properties.\r\nIn many cases, the challenge is not the property itself. It is how the property is presented.\r\nMobile photographs are useful for everyday communication, but they may not always be sufficient when a property needs to be presented professionally. Lighting, camera angles, framing and the choice of shots can influence how a space appears on a screen.\r\nThis is where professional property photography and videography can make a practical difference.\r\nThe Challenge of Managing Different Property Media Vendors\r\nArranging a property shoot often involves contacting different professionals for different requirements.\r\nA photographer may be responsible for still images, a videographer may handle walkthrough videos, and a drone operator may be needed to capture the property’s exterior, surrounding area or overall layout from above.\r\nWhen these services are booked separately, the property owner or agent may have to coordinate schedules, communicate the same requirements multiple times and follow up with different people for the final deliverables.\r\nFor someone managing several properties, these tasks can become even more difficult.\r\nA property broker may need photographs for one listing, a video for another and drone footage for a third. A commercial property manager may need consistent visual content for offices, retail spaces and larger buildings.\r\nManaging every requirement separately can add unnecessary coordination to an already busy schedule.\r\nView On Click’s property media services aim to simplify this process by bringing property photography, property videography and drone shoot services together under one roof. Customers can enquire about the complete property media package through one booking process instead of independently coordinating each service.\r\nThe objective is straightforward: make professional property presentation easier to arrange.\r\nView On Click Brings Property Media Services Together\r\nView On Click is a property media service provider offering photography, videography and drone shoots for residential and commercial properties.\r\nRather than treating photographs, videos and aerial visuals as unrelated requirements, the service brings these options together so customers can plan their property presentation according to their needs.\r\n1. Professional Property Photography\r\nPhotographs are often the first visual reference a potential buyer or tenant receives when enquiring about a property. They help people understand the layout, interiors, exterior appearance and important features before arranging a visit.\r\nProfessional property photography focuses on presenting these details clearly.\r\nDepending on the property and the agreed scope of work, a shoot may include the entrance, living room, bedrooms, kitchen, bathrooms, balcony, building exterior, landscaping and other relevant features.\r\nFor luxury homes, the emphasis may be on architectural details, interiors, finishes and the overall feel of the space. For commercial properties, photographs may focus on office layouts, work areas, entrances, common areas and the features relevant to prospective occupants.\r\nProperty photography in Noida and Delhi NCR can be useful for individual homeowners, landlords, brokers, builders and businesses that need presentable images for property listings, websites, social media and promotional material.\r\nThe aim is to show the property as clearly and attractively as possible while maintaining an honest representation of the actual space.\r\n2. Property Videography and Cinematic Walkthroughs\r\nSome property features are easier to understand through video than through still photographs.\r\nA video can guide viewers from the entrance to the living area, show the connection between rooms and provide a better sense of how the property is arranged. It can also capture architectural details, natural light, common areas and the overall atmosphere of a space.\r\nProperty videography is particularly relevant for premium residences, furnished apartments, commercial buildings, offices and real-estate projects where the overall experience matters.\r\nA well-planned property video can help prospective buyers and tenants understand the space before deciding whether to visit it in person.\r\nFor real-estate agents and property owners in Delhi NCR, professional property videography can also provide reusable content for online listings, social media posts, websites and digital presentations.\r\nView On Click offers videography as part of its property media services, allowing customers to enquire about video coverage alongside photography through the complete property media service.\r\n3. Drone Shoots for Properties\r\nFor certain properties, the exterior and surrounding environment are just as important as the interiors.\r\nDrone photography and videography can provide an aerial perspective of a building, its architectural layout, landscaped surroundings and the broader site. This can be especially useful for independent houses, villas, larger residential developments, commercial buildings and real-estate projects.\r\nFor example, a ground-level photograph may show the entrance of a property, while an aerial shot can provide a wider view of the building and its surroundings.\r\nSimilarly, drone footage can help present the scale and layout of a larger project more clearly.\r\nDrone shoots for real estate in Noida and Delhi NCR can therefore be a useful addition to a property’s visual presentation, depending on its location, layout and intended use.\r\nAll drone operations must be planned subject to applicable permissions, airspace restrictions and safety requirements.\r\nBy offering drone shoots alongside photography and videography, View On Click gives customers the option to arrange a more complete set of property visuals through one service provider.\r\nWho Can Benefit from Professional Property Media?\r\nThe need for professional property media is not limited to luxury homes or large real-estate developers. Different types of property owners and professionals can benefit from better visual presentation.\r\nProperty owners and landlords: People looking to sell or rent their homes can use professional photographs and videos to present the property’s features more clearly to prospective buyers and tenants.\r\nReal-estate brokers and agents: Brokers who manage multiple listings can arrange visual content for different properties without having to coordinate separate service providers for every requirement.\r\nBuilders and developers: Residential projects, villas, apartments and newly completed developments may require photographs, walkthrough videos and aerial footage for websites, brochures and online campaigns.\r\nCommercial property owners: Offices, retail spaces, business premises and commercial buildings often need visual content that clearly communicates their layout, facilities and overall appearance.\r\nProperty managers: Professionals responsible for multiple properties can arrange media shoots according to individual property requirements.\r\nFor all these groups, the goal is to make property information easier to present and understand.\r\nWhy Property Presentation Matters in Noida and Delhi NCR\r\nNoida, Greater Noida, Gurugram and other parts of Delhi NCR have a wide variety of residential and commercial properties, from apartments and independent houses to office spaces and larger developments.\r\nWhen a property is shared online, prospective customers may compare several options before contacting the owner or agent. Clear photographs and informative videos help them understand what is being offered and decide whether they want to enquire further.\r\nPoor-quality visuals may leave important questions unanswered. For instance, a photograph might not clearly show the room’s layout, while a short video may not cover the entrance, balcony or other relevant areas.\r\nA planned property shoot helps address these gaps by capturing the features that matter to the intended audience.\r\nFor real-estate professionals searching for property photography services in Noida, real-estate videography in Delhi NCR or drone photography for commercial properties, having access to these services through one provider can also simplify the planning process.\r\nHowever, professional visuals should complement accurate property information. Photographs and videos cannot replace important details such as the property’s actual size, location, condition, price and availability.\r\nOne Booking Process for Multiple Property Media Requirements\r\nThe main idea behind View On Click is to reduce the effort involved in arranging different types of property media.\r\nInstead of beginning separate searches for a photographer, videographer and drone operator, customers can explore the available services through View On Click and enquire about the complete property media package.\r\nThe process starts with sharing the property details and discussing the required coverage. Photography, videography and drone visuals are coordinated as part of the package, subject to the property’s location, applicable permissions and the agreed scope of work.\r\nThis approach is intended to make property media easier to organise for individuals as well as professionals handling multiple listings.\r\nIt also gives customers a single point of contact for their property media enquiry, rather than requiring them to manage every service independently.\r\nFor anyone looking for a property media company in Noida or Delhi NCR, this can be a practical option when multiple types of visual content are required for the same property.\r\nHow to Get Started with View On Click\r\nProperty owners, brokers, builders and commercial property managers who need professional property visuals can contact View On Click to discuss their requirements.\r\nWhether the requirement is for a residential property, commercial space, office or real-estate project, customers can enquire about the complete property media package and its suitability for their location.\r\nTo learn more about the services or enquire about a property media booking, visit the View On Click website or explore the property media services page. You can also contact the team at +91 9218467355.\r\nFrequently Asked Questions\r\n1. Where can I book professional property photography in Noida?\r\nYou can contact View On Click to enquire about professional property photography in Noida. The service is intended for property owners, landlords, brokers, builders and commercial property managers who need photographs for property listings, websites and digital presentations.\r\n2.

Can I book photography, videography and drone shoots together?\r\nYes. View On Click brings photography, videography and drone visuals together through its complete property media package. These services are not offered as separate bookings. The final scope depends on the property, location, permissions and agreed deliverables.\r\n4. Who needs professional real-estate photography?\r\nProperty owners, landlords, real-estate brokers, builders, developers and commercial property managers may benefit from professional real-estate photography when presenting properties online or preparing visual material for marketing and enquiries.\r\n5. How do I enquire about property media services with View On Click?\r\nVisit the View On Click homepage or the property media services page, or call +91 9218467355 to discuss your property and the complete package.\r\nMaking Property Presentation Simpler\r\nPresenting a property professionally involves more than taking a few photographs. It requires choosing the right views, capturing relevant details and deciding how still images, video and aerial footage can best communicate the property’s features.\r\nFor property owners and real-estate professionals who find it difficult to coordinate multiple vendors, a coordinated property media service offers a simpler way to manage these requirements.\r\nBy bringing photography, videography and drone shoots together, View On Click aims to make professional property presentation more convenient for customers in Noida and Delhi NCR.\r\nView On Click – Properties Look Better When Seen Right.\r\nContact View on click\r\nWebsite: https://viewonclick.com | https://viewonclick.com/propertymediaservices\r\nIf you object to the content of this press release, please notify us at pr.error.rectification@gmail.com.

Enterprise buyers who once treated legal software primarily as a back-office utility are increasingly evaluating AI-enabled legal platforms as part of broader digital transformation initiatives. Amid that shift, Gurugram-based AI-first legal operations platform Legistify has crossed a significant threshold of its own: more than 350 enterprise clients.\r\nThe number matters less as a standalone statistic than as a signal of the changing role of legal technology inside enterprises. Legistify says the milestone reflects demand across new industry verticals as well as expanded deployments among existing customers, as legal departments look for ways to bring contracts, litigation, intellectual property and legal notices into more connected workflows.\r\nFounded in 2015, Legistify has spent more than a decade evolving from an early legal-services marketplace into a full-stack SaaS platform built around LegisTrak, its enterprise legal operations suite. Over that journey, the company’s technology stack has expanded to include Codex, an AI-powered workspace embedded across its four core modules: Contract Lifecycle Management, Litigation Management, IP Management and Legal Notice Management.\r\n“Crossing 350 enterprise clients tells us the market has moved past experimenting with AI in legal ops and started depending on it,” said Akshat Singhal, Founder and CEO of Legistify. “Our focus now is making Codex handle more of that work on its own, without asking legal teams to trust it blindly.”\r\nThat framing of AI as something that has to earn trust rather than simply demonstrate capability reflects an important challenge for enterprise legal technology. Legal teams are not only looking for faster drafting, research or document review. They are also dealing with workflows where context is spread across contracts, disputes, intellectual property, notices and multiple stakeholders. For AI to become part of those operations, its value increasingly depends on how effectively it fits into the wider legal workflow.\r\nLegistify has taken a broader approach to that problem by bringing Contract Lifecycle Management, Litigation Management, IP Management and Legal Notice Management into a four-module structure, with Codex operating across the platform. The proposition is not simply to add an AI feature to an existing legal process, but to create a connected operating environment in which legal information and workflows can be managed more centrally.\r\nThe company’s client base provides some indication of where that approach has gained traction. Legistify now works across sectors including e-commerce, FMCG, hospitality, manufacturing and retail, with organizations such as Decathlon, Dabur, Coca-Cola and Royal Enfield among the enterprises using its platform to manage legal workflows. That breadth gives the company exposure to industries with significantly different operational requirements and legal risk profiles.\r\nPratik Mohapatra, the company’s Co-founder and Chief Business Officer, points to a shift in who is initiating those conversations in the first place. “What’s changed is who’s calling us,” he said. “It used to be legal teams looking for a better tool. Now it’s CFOs and compliance heads asking how AI can de-risk their contracting process end to end.”\r\nThat shift from legal-team procurement to CFO-level scrutiny tracks with a broader pattern across enterprise software in India this year, where AI spending decisions are increasingly being pulled upward into finance and risk functions rather than left entirely to the department requesting the tool. For a legal ops platform, that means selling not just efficiency but auditability: the ability to show, not just claim, that AI-assisted decisions can be traced and justified.\r\nLegistify has raised more than $5 million in funding to date, including a Series A round completed in September 2023, from investors including Y Combinator, Cathexis Ventures, Titan Capital, IndiaMart, Java Capital and GSF Group. The platform currently holds a 4.9 out of 5 rating on both G2 and Capterra, independent review sites where enterprise software buyers increasingly do their own due diligence before a vendor conversation even begins.\r\nWhether Legistify’s growth curve holds through the next phase of India’s legaltech funding cycle is a separate question from what the 350-client milestone answers today. What it does confirm is that, in a market flooded with narrow AI features competing for attention, enterprises are still willing to bet on consolidation provided the platform earns the trust to be trusted with everything at once, not just the easiest problem first.","articleSection":"Business","datePublished":"2026-10-10T13:44:24+0530","dateModified":"2026-10-10T13:46:37+0530","inLanguage":"en-us","author":{"@type":"Person","name":"Correspondent Desk","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com/user/marudharabharti"},"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Marudhara Bharti English","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com/uploads/logo/logo_6ab9270c36c334-01124948.png"}},"image":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhhSOGNSoJ7LfWbpZRI8kp9GOpT3neHr7enPQHmHIBDqHDyPQxtHfC7EQmNppOW9PVVwtbCHZXeZV1ChhQo4sygNjjdXNTNEz30zr9-dcdOjIBErnFh2_BytE1jESoZRkqdEoLfLx6kGp-DwLAW0iUp9r1JkIR1dXp9FlP7NUwGYxvq1RGmA9AOuto0JVxC/w1600/image.jpeg","contentUrl":"https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhhSOGNSoJ7LfWbpZRI8kp9GOpT3neHr7enPQHmHIBDqHDyPQxtHfC7EQmNppOW9PVVwtbCHZXeZV1ChhQo4sygNjjdXNTNEz30zr9-dcdOjIBErnFh2_BytE1jESoZRkqdEoLfLx6kGp-DwLAW0iUp9r1JkIR1dXp9FlP7NUwGYxvq1RGmA9AOuto0JVxC/w1600/image.jpeg"},"keywords":["Legistify","Crosses","350","Enterprise","Clients","Adoption","Reshapes","India’s","Legaltech","Market"]}</script>

Monsoon seas shorten sailing schedules and dampen demand. A year ago, this was the quarter in which Cordelia Cruises lost Rs 89.3 million. This year, it earned Rs 585.0 million.\r\nWaterways Leisure Tourism Limited, the company behind the brand, reported revenue from operations of Rs 1,329.0 million for the quarter ended 30 September 2026, up about 31% from Rs 1,015.4 million a year earlier. Total income rose 43% to Rs 1,511.6 million.\r\nUnderneath the headline, the core business has turned the corner. Profit before tax and exceptional items came in at Rs 96.1 million, against a loss of Rs 114.9 million in the same quarter last year. That is a swing of more than Rs 210 million in the slowest season of the year.\r\nEarnings per share rose to Rs 0.85, compared with a loss of Rs 0.14 a year ago. For a company that only listed on 1 July 2026, it is a commanding debut as a public company.\r\nIf this is what Cordelia can do when the seas are rough, the October–March peak season looks set to be a strong one.\r\nCordelia Cruises Smashes Full-Year Profit in Just Six Months, and Peak Season Hasn’t Even Started\r\nCordelia Cruises needed only six months to beat its full-year profit for the previous year.\r\nFor the half year ended 30 September 2026, the company reported net profit of Rs 812.7 million, up from Rs 258.3 million in the first half of last year. For the full year ended 31 March 2026, it earned Rs 521.4 million. With half the year still to go, the company has already passed that figure by about 56%.\r\nThe growth goes beyond net profit:\r\n\r\nRevenue from operations rose about 16% to Rs 3,230.1 million.\r\nProfit before tax and exceptional items rose about 19% to Rs 426.6 million.\r\nEarnings per share tripled to Rs 1.20, from Rs 0.40.\r\n\r\nThe first half includes the monsoon months, so the company has reached these numbers before entering its busiest season. The October–March period, when cruise demand in India is at its highest, is yet to come.\r\nCordelia Cruises Goes Big: Two New Ships, SKY and SUN, Set to Supercharge Growth\r\nIn the cruise business, the size of the fleet sets the limit on growth. Cordelia Cruises is now raising that limit.\r\nAccording to its results filing, the company paid USD 24.8 million in advance lease rentals for two upcoming vessels, “SKY” and “SUN”. SKY was handed over on 10 September 2026, three weeks before the original date of 30 September.\r\nThe company has also made an interest-bearing advance of Rs 4,290.4 million to a third party to acquire another new vessel. The advance earns interest while the deal progresses.\r\nCapital work-in-progress, which covers projects still under construction, rose to Rs 367.4 million from nil in March. Right-of-use assets, which reflect leased assets such as ships, more than doubled to Rs 299.3 million.\r\nFor travellers, this means more cabins, more routes and more departures. For the business, every additional ship adds a new source of revenue. Cordelia is not waiting for demand to come to it. It is building the capacity to meet that demand.\r\nCordelia Cruises Scores a USD 5.2 Million Windfall, Getting Paid to Take Its New Ship Early\r\nMost fleet expansions cost money. Cordelia Cruises managed to get paid for one of its own.\r\nUnder an agreement dated 1 September 2026, Norwegian Sky Limited paid Cordelia’s subsidiary, Bay Cruise Investments Inc., USD 5.2 million for taking delivery of the vessel “SKY” early. The ship was handed over on 10 September 2026 instead of the original date of 30 September. The filing states that the compensation comes “without any obligation”.\r\nThe payment was booked as an exceptional item of Rs 494.8 million in the September quarter. Cordelia now has its new ship in service sooner, and the extra cash strengthens its finances.\r\nThe deal also shows the management team’s skill in negotiating with global ship owners. It sets a positive example for the company’s next fleet additions, including the vessel “SUN”.\r\nCordelia Cruises Turns Into a Cash Machine: Rs 922 Million Swing in Operating Cash Flow\r\nProfits matter, but cash is what keeps a company running. Cordelia Cruises’ cash flow has improved even more than its profits.\r\nIn the half year ended 30 September 2026, the company’s operations generated Rs 499.7 million of net cash. In the same period last year, operations used up Rs 422.5 million. That is a swing of more than Rs 920 million in twelve months.\r\nCash generated from operations before tax was Rs 762.0 million, even after the company paid Rs 262.3 million in income tax. That kind of tax payment reflects real, taxable profit.\r\nA business that produces its own cash depends less on outside funding for daily operations. Combined with the IPO proceeds, Cordelia can now pay for its growth from two sources: its own operations and fresh capital from the market.\r\nCash and cash equivalents rose to Rs 70.0 million at the end of the period, with a further Rs 2,112.0 million held in other bank balances.\r\nCordelia Cruises Puts Its Cash to Work as Other Income Rockets More Than Four-Fold\r\nCordelia Cruises is earning a return on its capital before that capital is even spent.\r\nOther income in the September quarter rose to Rs 182.6 million, from Rs 39.9 million a year earlier, an increase of about 4.6 times. For the half year, it reached Rs 197.7 million, up from Rs 50.2 million.\r\nThe cash flow statement shows where this comes from. In the half year, the company earned:\r\n\r\nRs 86.5 million in interest on bank deposits, up from Rs 1.1 million\r\nRs 102.5 million in interest on loans given, up from Rs 9.4 million\r\n\r\nAs planned, unused IPO proceeds are kept in fixed deposits. The Rs 4,290.4 million advance for a new vessel also earns interest. This means the money set aside for future ships is already earning income for shareholders.","articleSection":"Business","datePublished":"2026-10-10T12:28:49+0530","dateModified":"2026-10-10T12:33:28+0530","inLanguage":"en-us","author":{"@type":"Person","name":"PNN","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com/user/pnnindia"},"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Marudhara Bharti English","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com/uploads/logo/logo_6ab9270c36c334-01124948.png"}},"image":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://pnndigital.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/10/PNN-2026-10-09T182323.706.jpg","contentUrl":"https://pnndigital.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/10/PNN-2026-10-09T182323.706.jpg"},"keywords":["Cordelia Cruises","Blasts Past Last Year’s Loss"]}</script>

The project is expected to generate direct employment opportunities for around 100 people said Mr. Raj Venu Gopal Takkallapally, Managing Director.\r\nThe new facility will incorporate advanced Italian and German machinery alongside cutting-edge manufacturing technologies.

Ltd., a leading real estate firm based in Delhi-NCR, is strengthening its residential property offerings across different configurations, including 2BHK, 3BHK, 4BHK and 5BHK homes, as homebuyers increasingly look for properties that offer greater space, functionality and flexibility.\r\nThe preference for larger homes has been gaining traction across Delhi-NCR, with recent industry data showing strong demand for 3BHK homes in the region. At the same time, affordability continues to remain an important consideration, making configuration, location and overall value key factors in the homebuying decision.\r\nAgainst this changing demand, M-SANVI is focusing on offering residential options across different sizes and configurations to cater to varied requirements, from buyers seeking a practical 2BHK home to families looking for additional space through 3BHK, 4BHK and 5BHK residences.\r\n“Homebuyers today are looking at a property from a much broader perspective. The requirement is not simply about having an additional room, but about having a home that works for the family’s current lifestyle and future needs. While affordability remains important, buyers are also paying closer attention to space, layout, connectivity and the overall convenience offered by a location,” said MukeshKumar, Founder &amp;amp; Director,M-SANVI Real Estate Pvt. Ltd.\r\nThe shift towards larger homes is also being seen alongside a more selective approach to residential purchases. Buyers are spending more time comparing configurations, locations and the overall value of a property before making a decision. For residential businesses, this is creating greater emphasis on understanding different buyer requirements rather than offering a one-size-fits-all approach.\r\nM-SANVI’s residential portfolio across 2BHK to 5BHK configurations is aimed at giving buyers greater choice based on family size, lifestyle requirements and budget.

The 10-day Mahotsav will be held from October 11 to 20, 2026, at Girgaum Chowpatty, Mumbai, and is produced by Divinity Productions.\r\n \r\nA special press conference was held on October 7 at Girgaum Chowpatty to unveil the highlights and creative vision of this year’s Mahotsav. The press conference was addressed by Director Yogesh V. Pagare, Music Director Monty Sharma, Secretary &amp;amp; Trustee Kanbihari Agarwal, President &amp;amp; Trustee Rajendra Agarwal, and Trustee &amp;amp; Treasurer Vaibhav Gupta. A special LIVE Ramleela act was also performed by the artists exclusively for the media, offering a glimpse into the scale and theatrical energy of this year’s presentation.\r\nThis year, the traditional Ramkatha is being presented with a larger stage design and contemporary theatrical technology while retaining the devotional essence and religious sanctity of the Ramleela. The production will feature more than 50 artists, a massive 64-ft HD LED visual backdrop, advanced lighting and sound, elaborate sets, specially designed traditional costumes, music and modern visual storytelling.\r\n \r\nOne of the major attractions will be a 1,500-seat covered German-hangar auditorium, designed to provide audiences with a comfortable and immersive viewing experience. While Divinity Productions is presenting the theatrical Ramleela, the overall Mahotsav, religious rituals, cultural activities, audience facilities and event management are being organised and conducted by the Shri Adarsh Ramleela Mahotsav Samiti.\r\nTrustee &amp;amp; Treasurer Vaibhav Gupta said, “Girgaum Chowpatty’s Adarsh Ramleela is not merely an event; it is an important part of Mumbai’s cultural and religious heritage. This year, we have made several new efforts in music and production to connect the traditional Ramleela with the younger generation. The grand stage, LED technology, new music, large ensemble of artists and 10-day celebration will offer audiences a special experience. We want the younger generation to connect with the story of Lord Ram, his ideals and values through Ramleela and carry this cultural heritage forward.”\r\nPresident &amp;amp; Trustee Rajendra Agarwal said, “This year, we have prepared to present Girgaum Chowpatty’s Adarsh Ramleela in a grander and more organised format. With a 1,500-seat German-hangar auditorium, a 64-ft LED stage and more than 50 artists, we want to give Mumbai audiences a Ramleela experience that is spectacular and remains with them for a long time. With advanced technology, large-scale production and the hard work of our artists, our endeavour is to make this year’s Mahotsav special and memorable. Through this Ramleela, we also want to create a connection across generations—from Gen-Z to parents and grandparents—so that all three generations can come together, experience the Ramayan and share the values and traditions associated with it. We want Ramleela to remain a shared cultural experience for the entire family.”\r\nSpeaking about the creative vision behind the production, Director and Writer Yogesh V. Pagare said, “This year, our endeavour is to present Ramleela not just as a traditional performance, but as a powerful and immersive theatrical experience. While keeping the core emotion, devotion and religious sanctity of the Ramkatha intact, we have introduced new elements in the areas of stage design, music, visuals and performance. Our aim is for audiences to not just watch the Ramleela, but emotionally connect with the story and experience it in a memorable way.”\r\nMusic Director Monty Sharma said, “The Ramayan is inherently filled with music, emotion and powerful moments. This year, music has been designed as an integral part of the theatrical presentation. Our endeavour has been to create a balance between devotion, emotion and dramatic impact so that the music enhances every important moment of the story. We have retained the soul of Indian traditional music while creating a larger musical experience for the audience.”\r\nSecretary &amp;amp; Trustee Kanbihari Agarwal said, “Girgaum Chowpatty’s Adarsh Ramleela has been an important part of our cultural and religious tradition since 1964. Our endeavour is to connect this heritage with today’s generation, especially Gen-Z. With this thought, we have incorporated modern stagecraft and technology into the traditional Ramleela presentation this year. The tradition must remain intact, while the way we present it can evolve with time. This balance has been at the heart of this year’s Ramleela.”\r\nBeyond the theatrical Ramleela, the 10-day Mahotsav has been conceptualised as a larger religious and cultural celebration. Audiences will be able to experience Saryu Aarti and Maha Aarti, 3D Ram Darshan, VR Dham Darshan, Ramayan Wisdom Gallery, Bhajan Jamming, spiritual conversations, Ramayan dialogues, along with various cultural and spiritual experiences for children and families.\r\nThe objective of the Shri Adarsh Ramleela Mahotsav Samiti is not merely to stage a grand production, but to preserve and strengthen Ramleela as a living cultural heritage. The Mahotsav also aims to provide a platform to artists, musicians and traditional craftsmen while introducing younger audiences to the values of Lord Ram, the Ramayan and India’s rich cultural traditions.\r\nWith devotion, theatre, music, technology and culture coming together on one platform, Adarsh Ramleela Mahotsav 2026 promises to offer Mumbai audiences a spectacular 10-day celebration at Girgaum Chowpatty from October 11 to 20.\r\n ","articleSection":"Business","datePublished":"2026-10-09T15:00:31+0530","dateModified":"2026-10-09T15:14:07+0530","inLanguage":"en-us","author":{"@type":"Person","name":"Correspondent Desk","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com/user/marudharabharti"},"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Marudhara Bharti English","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com/uploads/logo/logo_6ab9270c36c334-01124948.png"}},"image":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi5Yit4m8szeeSxDmrwK6en65nr4ZY4l4SfOq3PzMRx6nF4Efxs-eBYeZ88rwv8gYPqR6QHpcpY2SWmdBtfNcKeHHuIV9JRFunqwDkTJsv-cWsaOOh_4gEWLe82Wmf62mMICw6O6y4dxWd3pZ57pXW_dSmkFS1XBEADVbCB-RH1wJ10zpPVdQRtkQKtiizE/w1600/image.jpeg","contentUrl":"https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi5Yit4m8szeeSxDmrwK6en65nr4ZY4l4SfOq3PzMRx6nF4Efxs-eBYeZ88rwv8gYPqR6QHpcpY2SWmdBtfNcKeHHuIV9JRFunqwDkTJsv-cWsaOOh_4gEWLe82Wmf62mMICw6O6y4dxWd3pZ57pXW_dSmkFS1XBEADVbCB-RH1wJ10zpPVdQRtkQKtiizE/w1600/image.jpeg"},"keywords":["Mumbai’s","Iconic","Girgaum","Chowpatty","Adarsh","Ramleela","Mahotsav","2026","Unveiled","with","Grand","Theatrical","Vision"]}</script>

Bhadra &amp;amp; Koneti Nikhil Sai World Environment Organization (WEO)\r\nNew Delhi [India], October 9:Every morning across India, millions of children carry plastic tiffins and water bottles to school—an everyday routine harboring an emerging public health risk. Landmark research from the University of Newcastle and the World Wildlife Fund (WWF) indicates that individuals inadvertently ingest approximately 5 grams of microplastics weekly, equivalent to a plastic card. Over a year, this totals 260 grams of synthetic particles entering the body.\r\nThermal chemical migration worsens this exposure. When warm food is packed into conventional polymer containers, heat accelerates the leaching of endocrine-disrupting chemicals (EDCs) like phthalates and bisphenols. Concurrently, medical studies and epidemiological datasets from The Lancet Oncology and the Indian Council of Medical Research (ICMR) record a 477.8% surge in reported Indian breast cancer cases since 1990, alongside rising clinical reports of pediatric metabolic and hormonal variations.\r\nTo counter these environmental toxins through structured interventions, the World Environment Organization (WEO)—a registered Public Charitable Trust headquartered in Hyderabad—is executing an empirical framework to restore Earth’s core elements: Water, Soil, and Air.\r\nUnder the executive administration of General Secretary Koneti Nikhil Sai, working alongside Founder &amp;amp; President Dr. C.H. Bhadra, WEO is driving phased operational programs:\r\n\r\n\r\nWater Stewardship: Deploying campus audits and pilot setups reclaiming 75% of reverse osmosis (RO) reject water for horticulture.\r\n\r\n\r\nSoil Regeneration: Rebuilding depleted soil organic carbon toward fertile baselines via vermicomposting and Miyawaki micro-plantations.\r\n\r\n\r\nClean Air: Piloting high-albedo roof cooling (moderating indoor temperatures by 2°C to 5°C) and decentralized agritech biomass hubs.\r\n\r\n\r\nWEO’s Green Rangers Children Project 2050 transitions campuses into low-emission “Living Schools” via the GR3EN Cycle (Grow, Reduce, Engage, Empower, Nourish), utilizing classroom Kaizen boards and the “Sacred Steel &amp;amp; Jute Swap” to replace single-use plastics. Successfully observed at the Sankalp Group Schools and Evergreen Olives School, this zero-CapEx model is scaling nationally. In Telangana, 3,000 educators have completed orientation, with a prospective registry of 10,000 academic leaders mobilized with support of Dr. A. Jyothsna Rao (Principal, Evergreen Olives School; President, Eminent Principals and Eduleaders Association).\r\nExpanding into rural ecosystems, WEO engages over 2,000 village Sarpanches across multiple states, supported by a network of Mohammed Rizwan and CH. Sagar Netha, advancing decentralized agritech and mass gathering sustainability models. WEO invites educational directorates, municipal authorities, and CSR bodies to collaborate on these phased environmental frameworks.\r\n“Let Us Unite – Protect Our Environment”SAVE NATURE – SAVE FUTURE\r\nThe microplastics estimate cited here is a population-level, approximate estimate with methodological limitations.

Someone else might pair a contemporary necklace with a traditional outfit. Another might skip the elaborate jewellery altogether and choose one statement piece that becomes the centre of the entire look.\r\nThe interesting part?\r\nTraditional jewellery isn’t disappearing.\r\nWhat is changing is the reason people are choosing what they wear.\r\nNavratri Has Always Been About Dressing Up. But Dressing Up Has Changed.\r\nNine nights. Nine colours. Hours of garba.\r\nNavratri has never been just about the dance. It is also about what you wear while you dance, the photographs that follow, and the friends and family you celebrate with.\r\nFor generations, the occasion decided the jewellery, and tradition decided the style. You wore what the festival, and often the family, expected.\r\nToday, festive fashion is far more individual.\r\nPeople mix traditional and contemporary clothing. They style the same outfit in different ways. They repeat their favourite pieces without a second thought.\r\nJewellery has followed the same path.\r\nThe question is no longer simply:\r\n“What is appropriate for Navratri?”\r\nIt is increasingly:\r\n“What works with my style?”\r\nTradition Hasn’t Gone Anywhere. It Has Become More Flexible.\r\nThis is not a story about traditional jewellery losing its place.\r\nIn fact, traditional pieces remain deeply connected to festivals and family celebrations.\r\nThe difference is that they are no longer the only definition of a festive look.\r\nA traditional necklace can be paired with a modern outfit. A classic diamond bracelet can sit comfortably beside colourful festive clothing. A pair of understated earrings can sometimes say more than an entire set of elaborate jewellery.\r\nThe rules have become less rigid.\r\nAnd that gives people something they didn’t always have before:\r\nchoice.\r\nJewellery Is Becoming Part of the Personality\r\nThink about the jewellery people remember.\r\nSometimes, it isn’t the biggest necklace in the room.\r\nIt is the earrings someone always wears.\r\nThe ring that has quietly become part of their everyday style.\r\nThe pendant they received for a special occasion and somehow started wearing everywhere.\r\nThese pieces become personal because they are not restricted to one particular celebration.\r\nThat is where the relationship between jewellery and fashion is changing.\r\nJewellery is increasingly being selected not just for the occasion, but for the person wearing it.\r\nSomeone who prefers minimal fashion may want a delicate diamond piece even during Navratri.\r\nSomeone who loves statement looks may choose something bold.\r\nSomeone who enjoys mixing old and new may combine an inherited piece with contemporary jewellery.\r\nThere is no single “festive jewellery look” anymore.\r\nThe Diamond Doesn’t Always Need a Milestone Anymore\r\nFor a long time, diamonds were strongly associated with life’s biggest moments.\r\nEngagements.\r\nWeddings.\r\nAnniversaries.\r\nMilestones worth remembering.\r\nThose moments still matter.\r\nBut diamonds are increasingly finding their way into smaller, more personal moments too.\r\nA first major achievement. A gift to oneself. A family celebration. Or simply a piece chosen because it feels right.\r\nNavratri is a celebration, but it is also an opportunity to express yourself.\r\nAnd when jewellery becomes part of that expression, the piece doesn’t necessarily need to be elaborate.\r\nIt needs to feel right.\r\nThis Is Where Modern Jewellery Buying Gets Interesting\r\nThe jewellery industry has traditionally spoken a lot about occasions.\r\nBut customers are increasingly thinking about versatility.\r\nCan I wear it beyond Navratri?\r\nWill it work with Western as well as Indian outfits?\r\nDoes it feel like something I would actually wear?\r\nCan this become one of those pieces I reach for again and again?\r\nPeople are still buying with care. They are simply defining value differently.\r\nA piece can be valuable because of its craftsmanship, its diamonds, its design or its emotional significance.\r\nBut increasingly, there is another measure:\r\nHow naturally does it become part of my life?\r\nFor Suvidh Diamond, This Shift Makes Jewellery More Personal\r\nFor a diamond jeweller, this changes the question worth asking.\r\nIt is no longer only, “What suits the festival?”\r\nIt is also, “What will this person still love wearing long after the festival is over?”\r\nThat is a different way of looking at jewellery. A piece isn’t made for one night of garba or one family photograph. It is made to be worn again, with a saree one day and a shirt the next.\r\nDiamonds suit this well. They are made to last, so they can carry more than one occasion, and more than one version of the person wearing them.\r\nThis perspective also shapes how Suvidh Diamond approaches diamonds and jewellery.\r\nThe goal isn’t only to make pieces for a festival, but to help people find jewellery that fits their style rather than just the calendar.\r\nBecause the future of festive jewellery may not belong to the piece that looks the most traditional.\r\nNor necessarily to the one that looks the most modern.\r\nIt may belong to the piece that feels like yours.\r\nMaybe That’s the Real Change This Navratri\r\nNavratri hasn’t become less traditional.\r\nPeople haven’t stopped valuing the jewellery, clothing and rituals that connect them to their culture.\r\nThey have simply started adding something else to the equation:\r\nthemselves.\r\nAnd perhaps that is why this year’s festive jewellery feels different.\r\nThe colours may still be traditional.\r\nThe celebrations may still follow generations-old customs.\r\nThe music may still bring everyone onto the dance floor.\r\nBut what someone chooses to wear?\r\nThat increasingly tells a story of their own.\r\nBecause tradition tells us where we come from. Personal style tells the world who we are today.Please Visit :https://www.suvidhdiamond.com/\r\nIf you object to the content of this press release, please notify us at pr.error.rectification@gmail.com.

From the origins and character of materials to precision in manufacturing, and from responsible choices to the smallest details of execution, Würfel has sought to make every element count. That pursuit has increasingly found resonance beyond India, with the brand’s design approach earning recognition through the Good Design Award 2025 and the DNA Paris Design Award 2025, milestones that reflect Würfel’s growing presence within the global design conversation.\r\nThe Mansion is a natural manifestation of this evolving philosophy, bringing together the ideas, disciplines and sensibilities that have shaped Würfel’s journey.\r\nConceived for a discerning community of HNIs, architects and design practitioners, its appointment-led experience is deliberately intimate, allowing visitors to engage with the spaces, materials, finishes and design possibilities at their own pace.\r\nHere, the kitchen and wardrobe become part of a larger vocabulary of living, shaped by global design sensibilities, Indian craftsmanship, advanced technology and an uncompromising attention to detail.\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nThe Mansion also reflects Würfel’s continuing exploration of materials and responsible design. Natural textures, refined surfaces and carefully selected materials come together to create spaces where aesthetics and functionality coexist, while the brand’s focus on healthier and more environmentally conscious choices remains integral to its approach.\r\nAt its heart, The Mansion represents the evolution of Würfel’s design philosophy. More than a decade of learning, experimentation and refinement has culminated in a distinctive approach that brings design, technology, innovation and responsibility into dialogue with the way we live today.\r\n“The Mansion is not simply a destination for us. It is a reflection of how far Würfel has come and, more importantly, where we want to go. We wanted to create a space that allows people to experience the world we have been building towards, not through a catalogue, but through an environment that brings our philosophy to life,” said Mr Khanindra Burman, the Co-founder of Würfel.\r\nSpanning eight days, the launch brought together a gathering of more than 200 leading architects and members of the design community. The evening unfolded as an intimate celebration of design, conversation and culture, with a specially curated culinary experience by the Chef of the year and a live performance by one of India’s established blues and soul ensembles, bringing an understated cultural dimension to the evening.\r\nThe setting, the conversations and the experience were deliberately designed to remain intimate, allowing the Mansion itself to take centre stage.\r\nFor Würfel, it is the beginning of another chapter. A chapter in which a homegrown brand seeks to take its understanding of living beyond the boundaries of a category, and onto a larger global stage.\r\nSummary: Würfel unveils The Mansion, a private, appointment-led destination in New Delhi. The launch marks a new chapter in Würfel’s luxury journey, creating a distinctive space for experiencing kitchens, wardrobes and living spaces through a more curated lens.\r\nAbout Würfel\r\nWürfelis a luxury modular kitchen and wardrobe brand focused on creating design-led spaces that combine European precision, advanced manufacturing and contemporary aesthetics. With a growing presence across India, the brand offers bespoke kitchens and personalised wardrobes designed around individual lifestyles, spatial requirements and design sensibilities.\r\nThrough its studios, manufacturing capabilities and collaborations with architects, designers and industry professionals, Würfel continues to build its position in the evolving luxury interiors landscape.\r\nPlease visit https://www.wurfel.in/ for more information.\r\nIf you object to the content of this press release, please notify us at pr.error.rectification@gmail.com.

All Impact: Bright Outdoor Media Turns Samay Raina’s Shirt Into A 30 Ft Billboard","articleBody":"\r\nMumbai (Maharashtra) [India], October 9:(Bright Outdoor Media Limited, The company), in collaboration with District, has transformed Samay Raina’s iconic red-and-black checked shirt into a larger-than-life out-of-home (OOH) installation to promote his upcoming live show and 2027 India Tour.\r\nCampaign Highlights\r\nBright Outdoor Media Limited and District jointly conceptualised this campaign around a minimalist idea: no photograph, no crowded copy, just one recognisable visual. The teams chose Samay Raina’s checked shirt, a signature his fans instantly recognise, to speak for him. The installation has quickly become a talking point among commuters and fans.\r\n\r\nLocation: Western Express Highway, Mumbai, one of the city’s key high-visibility arterial roads.\r\nSize: A 30 ft × 30 ft recreation of the shirt, mounted on a 40 ft × 40 ft hoarding.\r\nPartner: Executed in collaboration with District.\r\n\r\nThe Shirt Became the Idea The concept began with a simple question: how can an outdoor campaign create maximum curiosity with minimum communication? After several rounds of deliberation, the teams identified Samay Raina’s red-and-black checked shirt, which has become synonymous with his persona among millions of fans. Instead of placing the comedian on a conventional billboard, the campaign lets the shirt speak for him.\r\nA 30-Foot Shirt. One Simple Thought. Maximum Attention. The execution shows the power of scale and simplicity. The oversized shirt, with its realistic checks, folds and wrinkles, feels less like an advertisement and more like a giant garment suspended above the city, in view of commuters, pedestrians and fans alike.\r\nOOH That Doesn’t Shout. It Stands Out for Bright Outdoor Media Limited, the campaign reinforces a simple principle: when an idea is strong enough, it does not need many words. Sometimes one visual is enough, sometimes one shirt is enough, and sometimes, less is more.\r\nCreative Execution Oversized scale with carefully recreated checks, folds and wrinkles. The shirt looks physically placed on the billboard, appearing more like a giant garment suspended above the city than an advertisement. A single, uncluttered visual built to deliver high impact through scale, simplicity and creative execution.\r\nDr. Yogesh Lakhani, Chairman &amp;amp; Managing Director, Bright Outdoor Media Limited, said: “We are delighted to collaborate with District on this campaign for Samay Raina’s live show and 2027 India Tour.  Speaking on the idea behind the campaign, the brief was to do something out of the box, where the visual itself would do the talking, we realised that Samay’s signature shirt is instantly recognisable among his fans, so we decided why not let the shirt do the magic We showed that a simple idea, executed at scale, can create real impact.     Projects like this strengthen Bright’s positioning as an innovative OOH player, showcase our creative and execution capabilities, and help us build stronger relationships with brands and agencies looking for differentiated outdoor solutions.   Going forward, we will keep exploring new formats and ideas that make outdoor media more engaging and more measurable.”\r\n\r\nAbout Bright Outdoor Media Limited\r\nFounded in 1980 and headquartered in Andheri, Mumbai, Bright Outdoor Media Limited is a leading name in India’s Out-Of-Home (OOH) advertising industry, with 45 years of expertise.

According to the centre, nearly one in five diabetic patients already show early signs of the condition the very first time they get their eyes screened.\r\nWorld Sight Day is marked each year to raise awareness about avoidable blindness and the importance of regular eye examinations, and doctors at Vision Eye Centre say diabetic retinopathy is one of the clearest examples of why that message matters. The condition, a leading cause of preventable blindness, is becoming more common across India, and the biggest reason, they say, is simple: most patients are not getting screened early enough, or at all.\r\nDiabetic retinopathy occurs when consistently high blood sugar damages the tiny blood vessels in the retina, the part of the eye responsible for vision. Left unchecked, it can lead to permanent vision loss. Yet unlike many eye conditions, it often develops silently, with no early symptoms, which is exactly what makes regular screening so important, and exactly the kind of avoidable vision loss World Sight Day aims to spotlight.\r\n“About 15 to 20 per cent of our diabetic patients show signs of retinopathy at their very first screening,” said Dr. Apoorv Grover, Consultant, Vitreo-Retina and Uvea at Vision Eye Centre.\r\n“We are seeing more and more patients with this condition. Those who are aware of their diabetes and get regular eye checks usually present with early or no disease at all. But a large number of patients come to us only after the disease has progressed, often because they were diagnosed with diabetes late or knew about it but never took it seriously,” he added.\r\nAccording to Dr. Grover, three patterns show up repeatedly in the clinic. Some patients are diagnosed with diabetes only after they have already developed retinopathy, meaning their blood sugar had likely been elevated, unchecked, for years before diagnosis. Others know they have diabetes but do not manage it properly, leaving their blood sugar high for extended periods without realising the damage it is doing to their eyes. And a third group simply never considers an eye check-up necessary, even after years of high blood sugar, until vision loss has already set in and the disease has reached an advanced, harder to treat stage.\r\nWhat the national data shows\r\nThe scale of the problem is backed by national research published in PMC, National Center for Biotechnology Information. The study conducted between 2015 and 2019 found that 11.8 per cent of India’s population lives with diabetes, and notably, one in three of those cases was newly diagnosed at the time of the survey itself, meaning the person had been living with undetected diabetes until then. Among people already diagnosed with diabetes, the same study found that 16.9 per cent had some degree of diabetic retinopathy, and 3.6 per cent had a sight-threatening form of the disease. The two biggest risk factors identified were how long a person has had diabetes and how well their blood sugar has been controlled over that time.\r\nThe picture looks even more concerning closer to home. A sub-analysis of the ICMR-INDIAB study focused on Haryana found that diabetes was significantly more common in urban areas, at 17.9 per cent, compared to 9.5 per cent in rural areas, pointing to a particularly high burden in cities across the Delhi NCR region. A separate study in Delhi found combined rates of diabetes, prediabetes, and obesity exceeding 18 per cent and called for urgent preventive action to curb the disease and its complications, including vision loss.\r\nWhy awareness, not just treatment, is the real gap\r\nDoctors at Vision Eye Centre stress that the technology and treatments to manage diabetic retinopathy already exist and work well when patients arrive in time. Laser therapy and injection-based treatments can preserve and often improve vision when the disease is caught early. The real gap, they say, is that too many people only think about their eyes after their vision has already started to fail, by which point treatment becomes more complex and outcomes are harder to guarantee.\r\nVision Eye Centre is urging anyone living with diabetes, regardless of how long they have had it or how well controlled they believe it is, to get a dilated retina examination at least once a year, and sooner if they notice any change in vision. For those recently diagnosed with diabetes, doctors recommend an eye check-up as soon as possible, since the survey data suggests a meaningful number of patients already have some retinal changes at the time diabetes itself is first detected.","articleSection":"Business","datePublished":"2026-10-08T22:45:57+0530","dateModified":"2026-10-08T23:00:25+0530","inLanguage":"en-us","author":{"@type":"Person","name":"Correspondent Desk","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com/user/marudharabharti"},"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Marudhara Bharti English","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com/uploads/logo/logo_6ab9270c36c334-01124948.png"}},"image":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEimbxvSCA2bnszNZX4r0B169D1oWwmYC5kIM-Ip-MjvAnNZ9vTOOYxgrVV30Y2TAirKqDA0SAlBSiXxF3MH7jNZ7pTk-BIx9Vv2AT7c4Hv5pk_F1taK14953b6AVP-n0QL3y_kSBxBz7ASUlqSzb7Fpsve8jR8it_4LXuBoOuqoX4Lu4OGfM6-UNTykCKMO/w1600/image.jpeg","contentUrl":"https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEimbxvSCA2bnszNZX4r0B169D1oWwmYC5kIM-Ip-MjvAnNZ9vTOOYxgrVV30Y2TAirKqDA0SAlBSiXxF3MH7jNZ7pTk-BIx9Vv2AT7c4Hv5pk_F1taK14953b6AVP-n0QL3y_kSBxBz7ASUlqSzb7Fpsve8jR8it_4LXuBoOuqoX4Lu4OGfM6-UNTykCKMO/w1600/image.jpeg"},"keywords":["Ahead","World","Sight","Day","","Vision","Eye","Centre","Warns","One","Five","Diabetics","Already","Show","Eye","Damage","First","Screening"]}</script>

It is the second-largest haul in the country’s Asian Games history. The contingent saved some of its best for last, winning nine medals on the final day of competition, five of them gold, to edge past Uzbekistan in the standings.\r\n“Over the past decade, the Central Government has made it clear that sport is no longer an afterthought in this country,” Snehaashish Pathakk said. “What we saw in Japan is the result of that commitment. In my view, no previous government has treated sport this seriously, and our athletes are now proving it in front of the whole of Asia.”\r\nSnehaashish Pathakk pointed to the Centre’s spending in the run-up to the Games. According to figures released by the Sports Ministry, the Central Government spent ₹800.70 crore on preparing athletes, of which ₹702.86 crore went through the Annual Competition and Training Calendar and ₹97.84 crore through the Target Olympic Podium Scheme (TOPS).\r\n“Behind every medal there is a coach, a physio, a training camp abroad and the right equipment,” he said. “I remember a time when our athletes’ struggles for basic support used to make headlines. That has changed. Today the system stands behind them. That is the difference between a country that hopes for medals and a country that plans for them.”\r\nSnehaashish Pathakk said the focus must now move to the next Olympic cycle. “Even as the country celebrates 85 medals, the Central Government is already looking ahead to Los Angeles 2028 and to finding the next generation of talent at the grassroots. That is what real leadership looks like,” he said.\r\nIndia’s team sports delivered one of the standout stories of the Games, winning gold in both the men’s and women’s competitions in cricket, hockey and kabaddi. The men’s cricket team beat Pakistan by 19 runs in the final to retain its title, while the women’s hockey team defeated China 1-0 for its first Asian Games gold since 1982. The men’s hockey team beat Malaysia 5-1 to defend its crown, and both hockey golds secured direct qualification for the 2028 Los Angeles Olympics.\r\nThe campaign also produced a string of firsts. Neeru Dhanda set an Asian record on her way to becoming the first Indian woman to win an Asian Games shotgun gold, and 17-year-old archer Kumkum Mohod became the first Indian to win an individual recurve title at the Games. Golfer Pranavi Urs ended a 24-year wait for an Indian individual golf gold.\r\n“Look at who is winning: a 17-year-old archer, women shooters setting Asian records and a golfer ending a 24-year wait,” Snehaashish Pathakk said. “This is exactly what Khelo India was designed for, finding talent early and backing it all the way. Today, Nari Shakti is not a slogan. You can see it on the medal table.”\r\nSnehaashish Pathakk called on India Inc. to build on the Centre’s efforts. “The Central Government has done its part, and done it well,” he said. “Now the business community must join this mission through sponsorships, training support and jobs for athletes, so that no talented child in a small town has to give up sport because of money. If we all stand behind this vision, India will soon be among Asia’s top three.”\r\nHe also extended his best wishes to the Indian team for the Asian Para Games, to be held in Nagoya from October 18 to 24. As of April 2026, TOPS supported 52 para core athletes, alongside 51 core athletes and 130 development athletes.\r\n“Under the Central Government, our para athletes have received the respect and support they always deserved, and they have repaid it with pride,” Snehaashish Pathakk said. “The entire nation will be cheering for them.”\r\nSnehaashish Pathakk is the founder of the SP Group of Companies, which has interests in IT, media production and event management through ventures including Blue Peak Info Tech, White and Black Entertainment and Parasvi Events.\r\nDisclaimer: Views expressed above are the author’s own and do not reflect the publication’s views.\r\n ","articleSection":"Business","datePublished":"2026-10-08T22:45:56+0530","dateModified":"2026-10-08T23:01:41+0530","inLanguage":"en-us","author":{"@type":"Person","name":"Correspondent Desk","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com/user/marudharabharti"},"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Marudhara Bharti English","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com/uploads/logo/logo_6ab9270c36c334-01124948.png"}},"image":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEikQ0A4SXoOkGoFt2LDwY_LYkgBvL7OqZVPQYILkI0M9SdnQbvgieJkXsZVCmLRTsiO1tbOWmUA0_hXCPMX0Sdl3bf85K99F0vYXph52V9LAEC1jv8HOU5dQotl42g12S-yufsFKor2LK_MVyjqDGKsghzVb4-EsSH6BLc3ymrGNmjVvCWllr2fexDu4nGF/w1600/image.jpeg","contentUrl":"https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEikQ0A4SXoOkGoFt2LDwY_LYkgBvL7OqZVPQYILkI0M9SdnQbvgieJkXsZVCmLRTsiO1tbOWmUA0_hXCPMX0Sdl3bf85K99F0vYXph52V9LAEC1jv8HOU5dQotl42g12S-yufsFKor2LK_MVyjqDGKsghzVb4-EsSH6BLc3ymrGNmjVvCWllr2fexDu4nGF/w1600/image.jpeg"},"keywords":["Entrepreneur","Snehaashish","Pathakk","Hails","Central","Governments","Sporting","Vision","Behind","Indias","85-Medal","Asian","Games","Haul"]}</script>

Designed for India’s rapidly growing base of digitally savvy and frequent international travellers, the card offers a smarter, more transparent and cost-efficient payment solution for overseas travel.\r\nThe company’s latest offering combines the convenience of modern travel cards with the inherent advantages of a prepaid forex card, including the ability to lock in foreign exchange rates before travel. This provides customers protection against currency volatility — a key concern amid the heightened fluctuations witnessed across global currencies this year.\r\nThe Zero Markup Card has been specially designed to address four key pain points faced by travellers today:\r\n\r\nZero Forex Markup on card loading: eliminating additional forex mark-up charges at the time of purchasing or loading foreign exchange.\r\nZero Cross-Currency Conversion Charges: enabling travellers to make seamless payments in currencies beyond USD without incurring additional conversion costs or worrying about access to local currency.\r\nProtection against currency volatility: allowing travellers to pre-load the card in USD and lock in exchange rates before travel, helping safeguard against fluctuations in the Indian Rupee and major global currencies such as the US Dollar. Customers may also benefit if the US Dollar appreciates after the card has been loaded.\r\n\r\nIn line with the evolving preferences of today’s digitally connected traveller, the Zero Markup Card is available exclusively through Thomas Cook India’s digital-first platforms. Customers can conveniently purchase the card via the website (thomascook.in), mobile app (TC Pay), WhatsApp, call centre, and it can also be ordered through Blinkit.\r\nThe Thomas Cook Zero Markup Card also offers several travel-friendly features and benefits, including:\r\n\r\nGet 10% cashback on spends across popular brands like McDonald’s, Starbucks, KFC, Grab, Uber, 7 Eleven and Careems.\r\nSecure contactless payments through Google Pay’s Tap &amp;amp; Pay\r\nComplimentary insurance cover of up to ₹7,50,000\r\nFree emergency cash assistance and zero-cost card replacement if the card is lost or stolen during travel\r\nGlobal acceptance across more than 200 countries and territories, wherever Mastercard is accepted\r\n\r\nForeign Exchange, Thomas Cook (India) Limited, said, “Today’s travellers are far more value-conscious and digitally savvy when it comes to international spending. Our Zero Forex Card has been designed to address the very specific needs of today’s traveller by combining zero markup and zero cross-currency conversion charges with the unique advantage of locking in exchange rates before travel. This gives customers greater control over their overseas spends while protecting them from unpredictable exchange rate movements during their journey – an advantage that is especially relevant in today’s volatile currency environment.

Highlighting this strategic commitment, the Company recognized INR 2,076.45 lacs as Capital Work in Progress (CWIP) toward its Solar Power Generation Project, its first CWIP addition in two years.\r\nTo formalize this expansion, shareholders approved an amendment to the Company’s Object Clause on 30 September 2025. The updated charter equips the Company to engage in the generation, transmission, trading, and supply of electricity derived from renewable and conventional sources, as well as ventures into Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS) and electric vehicle (EV) charging infrastructure. Management stated that the amendment provides “greater flexibility to explore and undertake new business opportunities” as the Company repositions itself for the green energy transition.\r\nDemonstrating immediate commercial momentum in the solar space, the Company has also secured a significant domestic purchase order valued at approximately INR 4.86 crore (exclusive of GST) from Zentaraa Infra Projects Private Limited for the supply of 3,600 Solar PV Modules, scheduled for execution in October 2026.\r\nFinancial&amp;amp;OperationalHighlights\r\nAlongside its clean energy initiatives, the Company achieved solid operational performance during FY 2025–26 through its active trading operations:\r\n\r\nRevenue Expansion: Total revenue nearly doubled to INR 3,632.04 lacs, compared to INR 1,904.58 lacs in the previous year.\r\nProfitability: Profit After Tax (PAT) surged to INR 181.41 lacs, up from INR 101.72 lacs in the prior fiscal year.\r\nTrading Business Operations: The Company maintained its ongoing business model, recording purchases of stock-in-trade of INR 3,362.37 lacs, operating as an agile, asset-light trading enterprise without holding finished goods inventory.\r\n\r\nOperationalNotes&amp;amp;GovernanceDisclosuresWhile advancing its solar asset development, no operational revenue was recognized from the solar generation project in FY 2025–26, as operational cash flows and revenue entitlements accrue upon the discharge of consideration payable to the seller. Independent statutory auditors highlighted the CWIP capitalization and its eventual transition to Property, Plant, and Equipment (PPE) as a Key Audit Matter (KAM), reflecting the scale and materiality of the project.\r\nThe Company continues to prioritize governance, project execution, and sustainable stakeholder value creation as it transitions from trading operations toward full-scale clean power infrastructure.\r\nAbout Gujarat Inject (Kerala) LimitedGujarat Inject (Kerala) Limited (BSE: 524238) is a publicly listed Indian enterprise pivoting into renewable energy solutions, solar infrastructure supply, and clean power generation.\r\nDisclaimer:This article is for informational purposes only and does not constitute financial advice.","articleSection":"Business","datePublished":"2026-10-07T15:39:41+0530","dateModified":"2026-10-07T15:43:24+0530","inLanguage":"en-us","author":{"@type":"Person","name":"PNN","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com/user/pnnindia"},"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Marudhara Bharti English","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com/uploads/logo/logo_6ab9270c36c334-01124948.png"}},"image":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://pnndigital.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/10/PNN-33.jpg","contentUrl":"https://pnndigital.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/10/PNN-33.jpg"},"keywords":["Gujarat Inject (Kerala)","Accelerates Clean Energy Pivot","Reports Robust Revenue Growth"]}</script>

Gone are the days when a bulky sofa and a firm mattress got picked once and forgotten for a decade. Today’s buyers want comfort, space efficiency, and real health benefits, not just something that looks nice in a showroom.\r\nWork-from-home culture, smaller apartments, and growing awareness around sleep health have all played a part in this change. This blog covers the lifestyle trends reshaping how Indians buy sofas and mattresses, and what to keep in mind before your next purchase.\r\nSmaller Homes Need Smarter Furniture\r\nCity apartments have shrunk, but families still expect their furniture to pull double duty. This has pushed multi-functional pieces straight to the top of most shopping lists. What buyers are asking for when space is tight:\r\n\r\nSofa cum beds that turn a living room into a guest bedroom in minutes.\r\nModular sofas that can be rearranged as families grow or homes change.\r\nStorage-integrated mattress bases that free up wardrobe space.\r\nL-shaped or corner sofas that make use of awkward room layouts.\r\nFoldable or expandable pieces built for compact studio apartments.\r\n\r\nComfort Has Won Over Convention\r\nFirmness used to be the go-to advice for mattresses, mostly because earlier generations were told it was good for the back. That thinking is fading fast. Buyers now pick mattresses based on their own sleep habits, body type, and any existing aches, not one blanket rule that’s meant to suit everybody.\r\nHere’s what people are actually checking before they buy a mattress:\r\n\r\nFirmness suited to how they sleep, whether that’s on the back, side, or stomach.\r\nMaterial, such as memory foam, natural latex, or a hybrid coir-foam mix.\r\nBreathability and heat regulation, which matters a lot during Indian summers.\r\nMotion isolation, especially for couples who share a bed but keep different hours.\r\nTrial periods and warranty terms before committing to something long term.\r\n\r\nSofas have gone through a similar change, with deep, cushioned seating winning out over stiff, formal designs that once cared more about appearance than actual comfort.\r\nPicking the Right Mattress Type\r\nWith so many mattress types on the market, it is beneficial to know what each one actually brings to the table before you decide. A quick breakdown of common mattress types and who they suit best:\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nMattress Type\r\nFeel\r\nBest Suited For\r\n\r\n\r\nMemory foam\r\nSoft, body-hugging\r\nSide sleepers wanting pressure relief\r\n\r\n\r\nNatural latex\r\nBouncy, responsive\r\nBuyers who want an eco-friendly option\r\n\r\n\r\nCoir\r\nFirm, breathable\r\nBack sleepers, hot climates\r\n\r\n\r\nHybrid (foam + coir)\r\nModerate support\r\nCouples with different preferences\r\n\r\n\r\nOrthopaedic\r\nExtra firm, spine-aligned\r\nPeople managing back or joint pain\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nSustainability is Important\r\nBuyers want to know what actually goes into their furniture these days, and this curiosity has changed how brands talk about their products.\r\nThings people now look for before making a purchase:\r\n\r\nFSC-certified wood frames instead of unmarked engineered wood.\r\nNatural latex mattresses over standard synthetic foam.\r\nUpholstery made from recycled or organic fabric blends.\r\nClear labelling on where materials are sourced from.\r\nBrands that openly share their manufacturing process.\r\n\r\nOnline Shopping Changed the Rules\r\nRemember when buying a sofa meant an entire Saturday spent driving from one showroom to another, just to sit on ten different couches before picking the least uncomfortable one? That’s largely gone now. Online platforms like Pepperfry let you scroll through hundreds of options, read what actual customers have to say, and compare sofa sets and other furniture across styles and price ranges, all from your phone.\r\nSleep Health Is Finally Getting Attention\r\nFor the longest time, people just bought whatever mattress was on sale without proper research. That’s not really the case anymore. Buyers are now paying attention to things like spinal alignment and pressure points.\r\nBrands have clearly noticed, because this focus on sleep has led to a lot more of the following:\r\n\r\nOrthopaedic ranges built for back and joint support.\r\nCooling gel layers for those hot, humid nights.\r\nAdjustable firmness options instead of one fixed feel.\r\nAntimicrobial or hypoallergenic covers for sensitive skin.\r\n\r\nConclusion\r\nAt the end of the day, smaller homes, a bit more environmental conscience, and a genuine concern for good sleep have changed how India shops for furniture.

It is built on the observation that the Indian plate is dense in refined carbohydrate and thin on the things associated with ageing well: high-quality protein, dietary fibre and plant-source fats. Roti is where most of that plate sits, eaten two or three times a day, every day. \r\nPDCAAS, or Protein Digestibility Corrected Amino Acid Score, is the FAO/WHO method for evaluating protein quality. It combines a protein’s essential amino acid profile with how much of it the body can actually digest and absorb. A high protein number means little if the protein is incomplete or poorly absorbed. Most plant proteins score well below 1.00. Almost no Indian food brand publishes the figure at all.\r\nThree levers, one roti\r\nProtein quality, not just quantity: The flour contains 51.84 g of protein per 100 g, verified by TÜV India. More importantly, it publishes a PDCAAS score of 1.00, independently measured by NABL-accredited Equinox Labs, the highest value the scale permits. PDCAAS, the FAO/WHO method for evaluating protein quality, combines a protein’s essential amino acid profile with how much of it the body can actually digest and absorb. A high protein number means little if the protein is incomplete or poorly absorbed. Most plant proteins score well below 1.00, and almost no Indian food brand publishes the figure at all. It is, to the company’s knowledge, the first atta sold in India to print a PDCAAS score on its packaging.\r\nFibres: The flour carries 12.77 g of dietary fibre per 100 g, verified by Equinox Labs, largely from psyllium husk and flaxseed. Indian diets typically fall well short of fibre recommendations.\r\nFat quality: Flaxseed contributes plant-source omega-3 fat to a staple that usually contributes none.\r\nA single 25 g scoop, roughly one roti, delivers close to 13 g of protein. It carries less than 1 g of added sugar and less than 0.10 g of trans fat.\r\nPrevention includes what isn’t in the tin\r\nLongevity is also about accumulated exposure, which is why the company tested for contaminants. Arsenic, cadmium, lead and mercury were all below the laboratory’s detection limit, well within FSSAI limits. Contamination testing is rarely disclosed to consumers in the Indian staples category, and Doctors Foodstore has chosen to publish those results alongside the nutritional ones.\r\nEvery tin carries a QR code linking to the complete reports for that specific batch: protein, amino acid profile, minerals, nutritional panel and contaminants, published in full rather than in summary. A printed Health Passport booklet inside each tin explains what each figure means and how it was measured.\r\nBuilt around the everyday plate\r\nThe product is built on MP Sharbati wheat, prized in Indian kitchens for its softness and aroma, blended with vital wheat protein, pea protein, soya flour, flaxseed and psyllium husk. Each ingredient was selected for a specific function: pea protein supplies the lysine that wheat protein lacks, psyllium contributes soluble fibre and binds the dough without additives, and flaxseed adds plant-source fat quality.\r\nThe flour behaves like conventional atta. It is kneaded, rested and cooked on a tawa in the usual way, requiring no change to how a household already cooks. That matters for a longevity product, because the only dietary change that affects long-term health is one a household keeps up for years.\r\n“Indians do not need another supplement. They need more from the food they already eat. We decided the only honest way to make that case was to test the finished product and publish everything, including the tests nobody asks us to run.”— Abhishek Gupta, Founder, Doctors Foodstore\r\nA category built on unverified claims\r\nIndia’s packaged nutrition market has a documented credibility problem. Independent testing of protein products sold in the country has repeatedly found significant gaps between labelled and actual content, and consumer trust in health claims has suffered accordingly. Doctors Foodstore’s position is that transparency has to be structural rather than asserted: batch-level reports, published in full, checkable by anyone holding the tin.\r\nLongevity Flour is available in a 1 kg tin supplied with a cloth pouch, a wooden measuring scoop and the GI certificate.\r\nAbout Doctors FoodstoreDoctors Foodstore is an Indian preventive nutrition company building everyday staples formulated with practising doctors. Its products are developed around the principle that better health begins long before illness, and are independently laboratory tested at batch level, with results published for consumers to verify. The company’s philosophy rests on four pillars: Science, Nutrition, Prevention and Trust.\r\nIf you object to the content of this press release, please notify us at pr.error.rectification@gmail.com.

Ft. Kitchen to a ₹4 Crore Brand: Sunita Mohapatra’s Wacky Wok Builds a Growing Food Business","name":"From a 500 Sq. Ft. Kitchen to a ₹4 Crore Brand: Sunita Mohapatra’s Wacky Wok Builds a Growing Food Business","articleBody":"\r\nHyderabad (Telangana) [India], October 6: In late 2022, entrepreneur Sunita Mohapatra took her first step into the food business by launching Wacky Wok, an Indo-Chinese cloud kitchen from a 500 sq. ft. space in Hyderabad. With a focused vision, a commitment to quality and the support of her family, what started as a small venture has grown into a food brand operating across two locations, supported by a 5,000 sq. ft. central kitchen and generating approximately ₹4 crore in annual revenue.\r\nBehind Wacky Wok’s growth is a journey built on family trust, entrepreneurial determination and a consistent focus on creating quality food experiences. Sunita began the venture with the unwavering support of her father, Dr.SourendraKumar Mohapatra, whose belief in her vision gave her the confidence to take the entrepreneurial leap. Her husband, Samrat, has also played an integral role in supporting the business and its growth with his efficient entrepreneurial experience and fine tuned way of people management.\r\nFrom the beginning, Sunita wanted Wacky Wok to be more than another food outlet. Her focus was on creating a distinctive Indo-Chinese food brand that customers could associate with consistent quality, familiar yet authentic flavours and a memorable dining experience.\r\nBuilding a food business from a small kitchen came with its own set of challenges. From managing day-to-day operations to maintaining consistency as demand increased, every stage required adapting to the evolving needs of the business. Sunita’s approach remained centred on building the fundamentals first and allowing the brand to grow steadily.\r\nThat approach eventually led to the expansion of Wacky Wok’s operations. Today, the brand has two locations in Hyderabad and operates with the support of a 5,000 sq. ft. central kitchen. The facility represents an important milestone in the brand’s evolution, providing the infrastructure needed to support its growing operations while maintaining consistency across locations.\r\nFor Sunita, maintaining quality while scaling the business has remained a key priority. In the food industry, where customer expectations are shaped by taste, consistency and overall experience, building a sustainable brand requires more than simply expanding the number of outlets.\r\nWacky Wok has therefore focused on its core proposition of Indo-Chinese cuisine while building processes around quality and customer experience. The objective has been to create food that encourages customers to return while establishing a distinct identity for the brand in Hyderabad’s competitive food landscape.\r\nThe brand’s efforts have also received industry recognition. In 2024, Wacky Wok was recognised with Swiggy’s Best Chinese Kitchen award. The brand has additionally been recognised as Chinese Restaurant of the Year for two consecutive years, marking important milestones in its journey.\r\nFor Sunita, such recognition is an acknowledgement of the collective effort behind the brand. While awards provide visibility, the larger focus remains on maintaining the standards that helped Wacky Wok establish itself in the first place.\r\n“Wacky Wok started with a simple vision—to create food that people would enjoy and a brand that we could build with consistency and purpose. The belief and support of my family gave me the confidence to begin this journey. As the business has grown, our focus has remained on quality, customer experience and building a brand that can stand the test of time,” said Sunita Mohapatra, Founder, Wacky Wok.\r\nThe growth of Wacky Wok also reflects the changing landscape of the food business, where cloud kitchens and focused food concepts have created opportunities for entrepreneurs to build brands with relatively lean beginnings. However, sustaining that growth requires investment in operations, people, infrastructure and customer experience.\r\nWacky Wok’s transition from a 500 sq. ft. starting point to a 5,000 sq. ft. central kitchen demonstrates that evolution. The business has moved beyond its initial phase and established an operational structure designed to support its presence across multiple locations.\r\nFamily remains an important part of Sunita’s entrepreneurial story. Her father’s early confidence in her vision and her husband Samrat’s continued support have accompanied her through the different stages of building the business. For Sunita, this support represents more than encouragement—it is part of the foundation on which Wacky Wok was built.\r\nToday, the brand’s approximately ₹4 crore annual revenue, two Hyderabad locations and industry recognitions represent significant milestones from its modest beginnings.

His participation followed opening remarks delivered earlier that day by GAPKI Chairman Eddy Martono at the conference’s Inaugural Ceremony, underscoring the association’s high-level presence at this year’s event. GAPKI’s participation in the forum is sponsored by Indonesia’s Palm Oil Fund Management Agency (BPDP).\r\nThe briefing was aimed at giving international buyers a clearer picture of Indonesia’s regulatory direction and easing market concerns over the availability of palm oil, as the country remains the world’s largest producer with a 57.5% share of global supply.\r\nThree Policy Shifts Reshaping Indonesia’s CPO Trade\r\nDr. Hasan outlined a comprehensive overview of the government’s latest policies affecting the industry and its buyers — covering stock levels, export levies and reference prices — alongside three structural reforms taking effect between 2026 and 2027:\r\n\r\nSingle-Gate Export via PT Danantara Sumberdaya Indonesia (DSI): A new governance framework channels exports of strategic natural resources such as coal, CPO and ferro alloy through the state-owned entity DSI. The rollout has two phases: a Transition Phase (June 1–December 31, 2026), in which exporters continue transacting directly with foreign buyers while reporting to DSI, followed by an Implementation Phase (from January 1, 2027), in which DSI takes over as exporter of record for all strategic commodity shipments, contracts, permits, levies and foreign-exchange receipts.\r\nStrategic Minerals and Commodities Exchange (BMKS): A new commodities exchange, targeted to launch January 1, 2027 under the supervision of Indonesia’s Financial Services Authority (OJK), is designed to establish an independent Indonesia Reference Price (IRP) for strategic commodities including palm oil. GAPKI has voiced support for the initiative, conditioned on seven governance expectations: freedom from conflicts of interest, leveraging Indonesia’s dominant market position, high trading liquidity and volume, full traceability, transparent price discovery, strong data interoperability among regulators, and cost efficiency for industry participants.\r\nB50 Biodiesel Mandate: Indonesia is shifting its biodiesel blending mandate toward B50, with full implementation targeted for 2027. GAPKI says current domestic biofuel production capacity is sufficient to support the mandate, but cautions that rising domestic consumption will progressively reduce the volume of CPO available for export, a trend expected to deepen in 2027 with knock-on effects on state revenue and industry financing.\r\n\r\n2027 Outlook: Tighter Supply, Firmer Global Prices\r\nGAPKI expects the combined effect of these three policies to reshape global palm oil supply and pricing dynamics once they take full effect in 2027. On the supply side, full implementation of the B50 mandate is projected to absorb a larger share of domestic CPO output for biodiesel, further narrowing export volumes compared with 2026, while the shift to single-gate exports via DSI will centralize and tighten oversight of Indonesia’s export contracts, permits and foreign-exchange flows.\r\nOn pricing, GAPKI expects BMKS to produce an Indonesia Reference Price that reflects genuine market supply and demand and reduces reliance on overseas benchmark exchanges, giving Indonesia greater influence over global palm oil price formation. Taken together, GAPKI anticipates that tighter Indonesian export supply in the short term could put upward pressure on global palm oil prices, given the country’s position as the world’s largest producer and exporter, and has stressed that sound governance in implementing all three reforms will be essential to avoid disrupting supply certainty for international buyers.","articleSection":"Business","datePublished":"2026-10-06T21:44:06+0530","dateModified":"2026-10-07T15:58:32+0530","inLanguage":"en-us","author":{"@type":"Person","name":"PNN","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com/user/pnnindia"},"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Marudhara Bharti English","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com/uploads/logo/logo_6ab9270c36c334-01124948.png"}},"image":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://pnndigital.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/10/PNN-2026-10-06T193540.123.jpg","contentUrl":"https://pnndigital.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/10/PNN-2026-10-06T193540.123.jpg"},"keywords":["Indonesia’s","Palm","Oil","Industry","Outlines","2027","Policy","Shifts","GLOBOIL","India","2026"]}</script>

It is a partner in our shared pursuit of food security, resilient supply chains, productive farmers and sustainable growth,” said IzzanaSalleh.\r\nCPOPC welcomed India’s initiatives to strengthen domestic edible oil production, noting that enhanced domestic capacity and dependable international supplies can complement each other in meeting the country’s growing demand. The Council identified oil palm agronomy, improved planting materials, smallholder productivity, traceability and sustainable sourcing as key areas for deeper cooperation between producing countries and Indian stakeholders.\r\nAddressing the palm oil session at GLOBOIL India 2026, CPOPC Deputy Secretary-General Dr.Musdhalifah Machmud highlighted the evolving dynamics of global edible oil markets, particularly the growing demand for biofuels in producing countries and its implications for international trade.\r\n“Food and energy security are both legitimate objectives. As national biofuel policies evolve, transparency and dialogue will help producers and Indian buyers plan ahead. Improving productivity, particularly among smallholders, is also essential to strengthening long-term supply,” she said.\r\nCPOPC noted that combined palm oil production across its member countries increased from approximately 66 million tonnes in 2021 to 73 million tonnes in 2025. However, sustaining future production growth will require greater investment in replanting, improved agricultural practices, technological advancement and farmer support, alongside responsible management of domestic and export demand.\r\nStrengthening Consumer Awareness and Stakeholder Engagement\r\nAs part of its engagement in India, CPOPC, in collaboration with the Asian Palm Oil Alliance (APOA), the Solvent Extractors’ Association of India (SEA) and Solidaridad Asia, convened a stakeholder roundtable on October 1, 2026, titled “Understanding Palm Oil Perceptions and Consumer Narratives in India.”\r\nThe roundtable brought together perspectives on nutrition, sustainability, responsible sourcing and food marketing, with discussions focusing on how Indian consumers perceive palm oil and interpret claims such as “Palm Oil-Free”. The dialogue also explored opportunities to improve consumer understanding through transparent, credible and evidence-based information.\r\nThe initiative was designed as a listening and discussion forum, providing stakeholders an opportunity to exchange views, understand consumer concerns and explore potential areas for continued engagement.\r\n“Our relationship with India cannot be built only around tonnes and prices. It also requires listening to Indian stakeholders, understanding consumer concerns and working together on credible information,” IzzanaSalleh added.\r\nCPOPC’s participation at GLOBOIL India 2026 builds on its cooperation with APOA and Solidaridad Asia, established in Mumbai in 2025. The Council reiterated that sustained engagement between palm oil-producing countries, Indian industry, policymakers and other stakeholders will be important in addressing evolving market dynamics, strengthening supply chain resilience and supporting the interests of farmers, businesses and consumers.\r\nThrough its participation in GLOBOIL India 2026 and the associated stakeholder discussions, CPOPC reaffirmed its commitment to constructive India–producer country partnerships, with a focus on predictable trade, sustainable production, agricultural productivity and informed consumer dialogue.\r\nAbout CPOPC\r\nThe Council of Palm Oil Producing Countries (CPOPC) is an intergovernmental organisation that facilitates cooperation among palm oil-producing countries and promotes dialogue with consuming markets.

The announcement came during Mangaluru Technovanza 2026, where AlgoShack participated as a Technology Partner and showcased its AI-Augmented Autonomous Quality Engineering platform, algoQA.\r\nThe Technovanza conference was held on September 23 at the Dr. TMA Pai International Convention Centre as part of the Karnataka Digital Economy Mission’s Beyond Bengaluru initiative. Post-event coverage reported participation from more than 600 delegates, 70 startups, 60 Global Capability Centres (GCCs) and over 20 investors.\r\nAlgoShack’s engagement extended across two days through industry roundtables, leadership networking, a dedicated exhibition presence and a main-stage Spotlight Session by Founder and CEO Vadeesh Budramane.\r\n“Mangaluru brings together strong engineering talent, educational institutions and a growing technology ecosystem. For AlgoShack, expanding here is about building closer relationships with that ecosystem – with enterprises, academic institutions, and technology talent – while contributing to the larger Beyond Bengaluru vision,” said Vadeesh Budramane, Founder and CEO, AlgoShack Technologies.\r\n \r\nExpanding AlgoShack’s Presence in Mangaluru\r\nAlgoShack’s expansion into Mangaluru is intended to strengthen the company’s presence in the region, build relationships with local engineering and technology talent, engage with academic institutions and participate more closely in the city’s growing enterprise and startup ecosystem.\r\nFollowing Technovanza, AlgoShack publicly confirmed that it is expanding to Mangaluru, citing the region’s growing talent base, institutions and technology ecosystem.\r\nBringing AI-Augmented Quality Engineering to the Main Stage\r\nAt Mangaluru Technovanza 2026, Vadeesh represented AlgoShack in a Spotlight Session focused on the changing role of Quality Engineering as artificial intelligence increasingly influences how software is designed, developed and released.\r\nA central theme was that faster software development does not automatically translate into greater release confidence. As AI-generated and AI-assisted software becomes more common, organisations also need stronger mechanisms to understand what should be tested, what has changed, which risks require attention and where human review remains necessary. \r\nThe discussion reflected AlgoShack’s broader focus on AI-Augmented Autonomous Quality Engineering.\r\nShowcasing algoQA at Technovanza\r\nAt its dedicated exhibition booth, AlgoShack demonstrated algoQA, its AI-Augmented Autonomous Quality Engineering platform, to enterprise leaders, technology companies, founders, GCC representatives, financial-services professionals, academic institutions and other ecosystem stakeholders.\r\nThe demonstrations focused on four broad areas:\r\n\r\n\r\nIntelligent test design and automation, including natural-language-driven test creation\r\n\r\n\r\nSmarter execution, including impact-based testing and prioritisation\r\n\r\n\r\nAdaptive maintenance, including self-healing and evolving automation\r\n\r\n\r\nEnterprise governance, including validation, traceability and quality oversight\r\n\r\n\r\nThe team also discussed emerging agent-based capabilities across test authoring and scripting.\r\nEngaging With Mangaluru’s Technology Leadership\r\nAlgoShack’s Technovanza engagement began on September 22 with participation in an industry leadership roundtable in Mangaluru.\r\nThe discussion brought together technology and business leaders around Mangaluru’s development as an emerging technology destination, including talent availability, infrastructure, GCC growth, investment and opportunities for companies to establish or expand operations in Coastal Karnataka.\r\nBuilding Beyond the Event\r\nAcross the Technovanza engagements, AlgoShack interacted with representatives from enterprise technology, software product companies, banking and financial services, fintech, AI and emerging technology, GCCs, startups, investment organisations, academia, talent and skilling organisations, and ecosystem bodies.\r\nFor AlgoShack, the event served three purposes: introducing its Mangaluru expansion, increasing visibility for algoQA, and building relationships that can support longer-term enterprise, academic, talent and ecosystem engagement.\r\nThe company plans to continue engaging with organisations in Mangaluru as it develops its presence in the region.\r\nAbout AlgoShack\r\nAlgoShack Technologies is an enterprise technology company focused on advancing software quality through AI-Augmented Autonomous Quality Engineering. Its flagship platform, algoQA, supports enterprises across the quality engineering lifecycle, including intelligent test design, automation, execution, adaptive maintenance, impact analysis, traceability and governance.\r\nAlgoShack is investing in autonomous testing, agentic AI and intelligent validation to help organisations move beyond traditional test automation toward more adaptive, efficient and autonomous approaches to software quality. AlgoShack works with enterprises across sectors including MedTech, healthcare, banking, fintech, retail and enterprise software.\r\nLearn more about AlgoShack","articleSection":"Business","datePublished":"2026-10-06T21:44:00+0530","dateModified":"2026-10-07T16:55:06+0530","inLanguage":"en-us","author":{"@type":"Person","name":"Correspondent Desk","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com/user/marudharabharti"},"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Marudhara Bharti English","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com/uploads/logo/logo_6ab9270c36c334-01124948.png"}},"image":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgltrLwsqNcqnVYWr_vtHATEgERpWtbpIl1nC4FTg9_BOaHGGAdhojn5iQms_QgYciTr_TsC8T6PyTgkkXagZIm5VdWEo5zFmrMJ1ZXE_5DXSfR-vi4oStuN_5TJJ1HcKhsnYlQfSzrZlhiTnvIlFYRQCVLTku0CiJs7JATbkjfd2GnGyLET2TtWsVxp4kD/w1600/image.jpeg","contentUrl":"https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgltrLwsqNcqnVYWr_vtHATEgERpWtbpIl1nC4FTg9_BOaHGGAdhojn5iQms_QgYciTr_TsC8T6PyTgkkXagZIm5VdWEo5zFmrMJ1ZXE_5DXSfR-vi4oStuN_5TJJ1HcKhsnYlQfSzrZlhiTnvIlFYRQCVLTku0CiJs7JATbkjfd2GnGyLET2TtWsVxp4kD/w1600/image.jpeg"},"keywords":["AlgoShack","Mangaluru Expansion","Technovanza 2026","AI-Augmented Autonomous Quality Engineering"]}</script>

Early detection and appropriate medical treatment are important in managing the infection. Research has also indicated that cranberries may have a potential complementary role in supporting H. pylori management. Cranberry proanthocyanidins (PACs) may help inhibit the bacteria’s ability to adhere to the stomach lining. However, cranberries are not a substitute for prescribed medical treatment.\r\nAs part of the initiative, US Cranberries has undertaken free H. pylori breath testing and gut health awareness programmes in Chennai at Sri Ramachandra Medical College and Research Institute, Kolkata at Belle Vue Clinic, and Bengaluru at Victoria Hospital, Mysore Road, New Tharagupet. The programmes have brought together renowned panels of doctors and healthcare professionals to educate people about H. pylori, the importance of testing and the role of preventive gut health.\r\nIn Bengaluru, the programme featured doctors including Dr. Savitha C, Dr. Vishwanath H.L., Dr. Mir Md. Noorul Hassan, Dr. H. Shivram and Dr. Sunil Kumar Venkatappa, with a gut health awareness session led by Prof. Dr. Jignesh Gandhi, Senior Director, Robotic &amp;amp; Gastrointestinal Surgery, Nanavati Max Hospital, Mumbai. Similar doctor-led engagements in Chennai and Kolkata have further strengthened the initiative’s medical outreach.\r\nThrough these programmes, US Cranberries is creating informed conversations between medical experts and the public, encouraging people to recognise digestive health concerns, understand the importance of timely H. pylori testing and explore the potential benefits of cranberries as part of a balanced approach to gut wellness. The initiative reflects the brand’s continued commitment to taking science-backed health awareness beyond the clinic and into the community.\r\nIf you object to the content of this press release, please notify us at pr.error.rectification@gmail.com.

The NOESIS Branded Residences India market map tracks 46 projects across 18 cities, delivered, under construction and announced. Nine are complete. The developers, brands and funds deciding the rest meet at The Branded Residences Summit, TBRS 2.0, curated by NOESIS Hotel Advisors, at JW Marriott Mumbai Sahar on 7 and 8 October. Applications are open at www.tbrs.co.in.\r\nThe stakes are commercial. Branded homes in India command a price premium of roughly 25% to 40% over comparable unbranded stock, on independent industry estimates. That premium is earned or lost in feasibility, brand selection and deal structure, long before the first sale.\r\nNandivardhan Jain, Curator, The Branded Residences Summit, And Founder and CEO, Noesis Hotel Advisors, says, “Nine delivered projects have shown India what it is capable of. The next 37 will show the world. Everything that makes a branded residence endure is settled early, in the months before capital is committed.”\r\nThis is a working room, not only a networking room. Day One opens with an optional closed-door Developers’ Masterclass for owners and developers, on feasibility, brand fit and what makes a brand walk away from a deal. Seats are limited. The main programme begins at 14:00 with the launch of the third edition of the NOESIS Branded Residences Report, then the legal architecture of a clean deal and the underwriting maths. Day Two turns to execution: brand partnerships, hotel-led against standalone models, sale-and-leaseback and pre-launch sales.\r\n\r\nThe developers are on stage, not in the audience.

Against this backdrop, Stoxkart’s SmartTrader Plan has emerged as a proposition for retail investors, offering unlimited trading across segments for a flat monthly fee of ₹99*, eliminating traditional brokerage charges and hidden costs.\r\nIntroduced last year, the SmartTrader Plan has attracted over 1,00,000 subscribers, while Stoxkart has helped clients save more than ₹287 crore in brokerage costs and added over 1,20,000 new Demat accounts. These milestones reflect growing interest in cost-efficient and technology-enabled trading solutions.\r\nBuilt Around Trader and Investor Needs\r\nThe SmartTrader Plan was designed to make trading more accessible and cost-effective by replacing per-trade brokerage charges with a fixed monthly subscription.\r\n“The Indian retail investing landscape is evolving rapidly, with investors seeking platforms that combine affordability, technology, and ease of use. Our focus has been on removing barriers to market participation through transparent pricing, intuitive technology, and investor-focused solutions. The strong response from users reinforces our belief that simplicity and customer value will continue to drive the next phase of growth in the broking industry,” said Mr.Pranay Aggarwal, CEO and Director, Stoxkart.\r\nThe platform has also witnessed strong trading activity, processing an average of 5 lakh orders every day, with nearly 70% of its active clients enabled for the Futures &amp;amp; Options (F&amp;amp;O) segment.\r\nGrowth and Industry Recognition\r\nThe growth of Stoxkart has come amid changing dynamics in the broking industry, with several established players facing challenges in maintaining active client growth. Recent brokerage industry data placed Moneywise Finvest Limited, the broking entity operating Stoxkart, among the top performers in active client growth.\r\nThe company also received recognition at the MCX Awards 2026, where Moneywise Finvest Ltd, Stoxkart, a subsidiary of SMC Global Securities, was recognised as a Leading Member in terms of Unique Client Codes (UCCs). The company opened 1,04,677 UCCs on MCX during FY 2025-26.\r\nStoxkart attributes its momentum to a hybrid approach that combines affordability with expert advisory, market insights, customer education and digital tools.\r\nTechnology-Driven Trading\r\nStoxkart’s platform integrates TradingView charts, advanced order types such as order slicing, and AI-driven customer support, along with web and mobile access. The company has also focused on fast onboarding and an intuitive interface to simplify trading for investors.\r\n“The future of trading lies in intelligent automation and democratized access. Our focus is on building technology that reduces friction and enables every investor, from college students to professional traders, to participate confidently in the markets,” said Aggarwal.\r\nStoxkart has also focused on financial literacy through educational initiatives, while its integrated advisory support aims to help users make informed decisions alongside DIY investing.\r\nTurning Cost Savings into Investor Advantage\r\nFor active investors, recurring brokerage costs can add up over time. Stoxkart’s ₹99* monthly SmartTrader Plan provides unlimited trading across segments, bringing greater predictability to trading expenses. The model has resulted in ₹287+ crore in brokerage savings for clients.\r\nThe Road Ahead\r\nStoxkart continues to focus on affordability, technology, analytics and Margin Trading Facility (MTF) offerings as retail participation evolves. According to the NSE ISC Report (Report 1C), Moneywise Finvest Limited reported 70,840 active client accounts. The company’s growth reflects the broader evolution of India’s retail investing landscape, where investors are increasingly looking for transparent pricing, technology-driven tools and solutions that enable greater participation and control\r\nDisclaimer: This content is for informational purposes only and should not be considered investment advice or a recommendation to buy or sell securities.

This is particularly relevant across sectors such as healthcare, hospitality, tourism, travel, retail and customer-facing services, where communication is an important workplace capability. Against this backdrop, Burlington English India has partnered with ARISE (Association for Reinventing School Education) to strengthen the way English communication is taught and developed across India’s private K-12 education ecosystem.\r\n\r\nPartnership will engage more than 1,800 schools across 20 States and Union Territories, representing approximately 1.5 million students and 85,000 educators\r\nBurlington English India becomes ARISE’s category-exclusive English language learning and communication skills partner\r\nCollaboration will focus on practical communication skills, educator development and applied English learning across India’s private K-12 education ecosystem\r\n\r\nUnder the strategic partnership, Burlington English India will serve as the category-exclusive English language learning and communication skills partner for ARISE. The collaboration brings together Burlington English’s expertise in English language pedagogy and learning with ARISE’s network of schools and education leaders across India. The partnership will focus on making English learning more practical and communication-led, helping students develop the ability to speak with confidence, express ideas, participate in discussions, collaborate and use English in situations beyond the classroom. It will also focus on strengthening educator capability, enabling teachers to integrate communication practice into everyday classroom learning through contemporary pedagogy, digital resources and blended learning approaches.With ARISE representing more than 1,800 schools across 20 States and Union Territories, the partnership provides an opportunity to engage a significant section of India’s private K-12 education ecosystem. The network represents approximately 1.5 million students and 85,000 educators.Mr. Amit Baveja, Managing Director, Burlington English India, said:“As information and technology become increasingly accessible, the role of the educator is evolving. Teachers are no longer simply facilitators of content; they are becoming guides who help students navigate an overwhelming world of information, use technology responsibly and ethically, and develop the critical, creative and analytical thinking skills they need to thrive. This calls for educators to continuously evolve their own pedagogical practices and embrace new approaches to teaching and learning.\r\nAt Burlington English, we believe high-quality teacher development should not be limited by geography. Through our partnership with ARISE, we are working to make state-of-the-art CPD workshops and contemporary pedagogical approaches accessible to educators across Tier 1, Tier 2 and Tier 3/4 cities. By equipping teachers with the skills, tools and confidence to create more engaging, experiential, collaborative and blended learning environments, we can ultimately help students move beyond simply knowing English to using it with confidence, purpose and impact.”The partnership will bring Burlington English’s English learning resources and educator support to ARISE member schools. The two organisations will work together through professional learning programmes, masterclasses, expert sessions and webinars to help schools strengthen English communication and teaching practices.Dr. Arunabh Singh, President, ARISE, said:“A child who knows the answer but cannot explain it, defend it or build on another’s idea has only half learned it. Communication is not a subject that lives in the English period. It lives in the corridor, the science lab, and the moment a quiet child finally raises her hand. Children speak with confidence when they feel heard, and that begins with teachers who are skilled and supported. Our partnership with Burlington English India is about exactly that: stronger language practice, investment in educators, and practical approaches schools can use tomorrow. The real measure of a school is not what students know when they leave. It is whether they can carry that knowledge into a room full of strangers and make it count.”\r\nThe partnership will also include Burlington English’s participation as a Learning Partner at the ARISE Learning Festival in New Delhi on 25–26 September 2026, with an expert session led by Mr. Andrew Steele and an experiential zone showcasing Burlington English’s learning solutions. Other planned initiatives include an ARISE INSPIRE expert session, a joint Principal Forum webinar and an ARISE × Burlington English roundtable on key K-12 priorities, including school leadership, institutional development and experiential learning.\r\nAbout Burlington EnglishBurlington English is a leading publisher of English language learning resources with more than 40 years of experience, empowering 3.5 million+ learners and 100,000+ educators across 40+ countries.

The project is registered under the Real Estate Regulatory Authority, RERA number PRM/KA/RERA/1251/446/PR/140923/006267, with construction underway since September 2023 and possession scheduled for December 2028.\r\nConfiguration\r\nOrchid Platinum offers 3 BHK and 4 BHK apartments ranging from 1,485 to 2,210 sq ft. The project does not include 1 BHK or 2 BHK units, positioning it firmly in Whitefield’s larger-format, premium residential segment.\r\nLocation and Connectivity\r\nWhitefield has grown into one of Bengaluru’s most established residential and IT corridors, anchored by ITPL and a wide network of surrounding tech campuses. Orchid Platinum’s location beside Whitefield Main Road places it within a well-developed pocket of the city, with access to Marathahalli, the Outer Ring Road, Bellandur, Sarjapur and KR Puram.\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nDeveloper Background\r\nOrchid Platinum is developed by Goyal &amp;amp; Co | Hariyana Group, which has an established residential portfolio across Bengaluru, including projects in Gunjur, Thanisandra and Balagere Road.\r\nWho Orchid Platinum Is Built For\r\nBy offering only 3 BHK and 4 BHK layouts, Orchid Platinum is positioned toward buyers who have outgrown a compact apartment, whether that is a growing family, senior professionals wanting a dedicated home office, or multi generational households that need an extra room. This is a deliberate departure from projects that stack in smaller 1 and 2 BHK units to maximize unit count, and it shapes the kind of buyer and community the project is likely to attract over time.\r\nWhat to Check Before Booking\r\nProspective buyers are advised to independently verify the project’s RERA registration on the Karnataka RERA website, review the sanctioned floor plans for the specific unit under consideration, and confirm current pricing directly with the sales team, since availability and pricing can shift as the project moves through its construction and sales cycle.\r\nExplore floor plans, pricing and the brochure at Orchid Platinum’s official page, or browse Goyal &amp;amp; Co’s full portfolio.\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nFrequently Asked Questions\r\nWhere is Orchid Platinum located?Orchid Platinum is located beside Whitefield Main Road, Bangalore, close to ITPL, Marathahalli, the Outer Ring Road, Bellandur, Sarjapur and KR Puram.\r\nWhat BHK configurations are available at Orchid Platinum?Orchid Platinum offers 3 BHK and 4 BHK apartments only, ranging from 1,485 to 2,210 sq ft.

At the centre of this transformation is Santosh Kumar Sahu, Director, Co-Founder &amp;amp; CEO of GoGreen Warehouses Pvt. Ltd., an entrepreneur who has spent more than two decades working across agriculture, retail, procurement, logistics, commodity management and warehousing.\r\nSince taking the entrepreneurial journey in 2018, Santosh Kumar Sahu and his team have been building GoGreen from a warehousing-focused organisation into an integrated agricultural value-chain platform.\r\nFrom Warehouses to a ₹10,000+ Crore Agri Ecosystem\r\nOne of GoGreen’s most significant achievements has been its rapid expansion in commodity management.\r\nThe company has crossed 3.5 million metric tonnes of actual commodity inventory under management, with the commodities valued at more than ₹10,000 crore. Publicly available company information also highlights a network of 700+ locations, demonstrating the scale of its operating footprint across India.\r\nGoGreen’s growth has been closely linked to its collateral management business, connecting physical commodity stocks with institutional finance. The company has developed relationships with 40+ banking partners, supporting pledge and warehouse-linked financing across important agricultural markets.\r\nThe next ambition is even larger: GoGreen has articulated a vision of scaling its commodity management ecosystem toward 5 million MT, supported by technology, infrastructure and deeper rural connectivity.\r\n25+ Years of Agri &amp;amp; Supply-Chain Experience\r\nSantosh Kumar Sahu brings more than 25 years of professional experience across retail, procurement, logistics, commodity value chains and warehousing.\r\nHis career has included experience with organisations such as Reliance Retail, RPG/Spencer’s Retail, Godrej Agrovet, NCML and NBHC, giving him exposure to both the demand side of retail and the supply side of agricultural commodities.\r\nHis entrepreneurial journey began with a clear objective: to address the structural gaps that exist between the farm gate, warehouse, financial institution and end market.\r\nToday, GoGreen’s platform covers several of these critical links.\r\n \r\nBuilding an Integrated Service Platform\r\nGoGreen’s ecosystem extends beyond conventional storage.\r\nIts capabilities include scientific commodity warehousing, collateral management, quality inspection and testing, logistics, warehouse management, fumigation, audit, inspection and trade facilitation.\r\nThe company has also been strengthening its technology platform through GoGreen Finware, with the objective of bringing multiple warehousing and post-harvest services onto an integrated digital platform.\r\nThis evolution reflects a broader change in the company’s business philosophy — from simply storing commodities to providing an integrated infrastructure and services platform around commodities.\r\nTaking Storage and Finance Closer to Rural India\r\nAnother important initiative is GoGreen’s Microwarehouse and rural aggregation model.\r\nThe objective is to bring organised storage and commodity services closer to agricultural production centres, enabling smaller market participants and farmers to participate more effectively in formal supply chains.\r\nThe company is also developing Kisan Sanchay Kendras as collection and aggregation centres, connecting farmers and local supply with quality testing, warehousing, logistics, processors and exporters.\r\nThis creates a potential end-to-end ecosystem:\r\nFarmer → Aggregation → Quality Testing → Warehousing → Finance → Logistics → Processor/Exporter\r\nPeople, Processes and Technology\r\nFor Santosh Kumar Sahu, building scale is only one part of the journey. The larger challenge is creating systems that can operate consistently across hundreds of locations.\r\nGoGreen has therefore invested heavily in manpower, process standardisation and operational controls. Its teams work across quality control, stock verification, inspection, audit, insurance, fumigation, warehouse management, collateral management and commodity logistics.\r\nThe company is also expanding its specialised service capabilities through GoGreen Finware, including quality testing, inspection, fumigation and other post-harvest services.\r\nThe Road Ahead\r\nThe journey from a young entrepreneurial venture in 2018 to an organisation managing millions of tonnes of commodities and a ₹10,000+ crore ecosystem represents a significant transformation.\r\nFor Santosh Kumar Sahu, however, the opportunity ahead extends beyond numbers.\r\nIndia needs stronger post-harvest infrastructure, better commodity traceability, efficient rural logistics and easier access to institutional finance. GoGreen’s strategy is to participate in this transformation by bringing these capabilities together under one ecosystem.\r\nWith a 5-million-MT scale-up vision, an expanding network, more than 40 banking relationships, integrated technology initiatives and growing rural infrastructure, GoGreen Warehouses is positioning itself around one of India’s most important economic opportunities: building a more organised, efficient and financially connected agricultural value chain.\r\nFrom the warehouse to the bank, from the farmer to the processor, the vision is to make every link of the agricultural supply chain more organised, transparent and efficient.","articleSection":"Business","datePublished":"2026-10-06T13:54:10+0530","dateModified":"2026-10-06T14:15:47+0530","inLanguage":"en-us","author":{"@type":"Person","name":"Correspondent Desk","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com/user/marudharabharti"},"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Marudhara Bharti English","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com/uploads/logo/logo_6ab9270c36c334-01124948.png"}},"image":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh6tLFfDkv8ot88Wl9EgFlzQxWBlRNhJWyUNUHFeBHNtyZsctbDyDrzTY6c-uw7mdi3tv4jdMHcM75nTj0TVtgpXqMXQc3T71l4EnvT5SAfkJcVz76KRDFAus9vw0XVc1_CuoExHw08pvp4p93z0_KhhqriLtIUwROiGAZIOzeTvXh61kDCrfaPy5oIqdy0/w1600/image.jpeg","contentUrl":"https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh6tLFfDkv8ot88Wl9EgFlzQxWBlRNhJWyUNUHFeBHNtyZsctbDyDrzTY6c-uw7mdi3tv4jdMHcM75nTj0TVtgpXqMXQc3T71l4EnvT5SAfkJcVz76KRDFAus9vw0XVc1_CuoExHw08pvp4p93z0_KhhqriLtIUwROiGAZIOzeTvXh61kDCrfaPy5oIqdy0/w1600/image.jpeg"},"keywords":["Santosh","Kumar","Sahu","GoGreen","Warehouses:","Building","India’s","Next-Generation","Agri","Supply","Chain"]}</script>

The store marks the first time the company has placed these two brands in a combined, standalone high-street format, rather than their traditional mall or food-court settings.\r\nUntil now, both Street Foods by Punjab Grill and Asia Seven had largely operated out of shopping mall food courts and multiplex zones across cities such as Gurugram, Lucknow, Ahmedabad, Bengaluru, Kochi and Bhubaneswar, among others. This new Sector 14 launch represents a strategic shift toward high-street, neighbourhood-facing outlets, allowing the company to reach customers directly in residential and commercial catchment areas without the footfall dependency of a mall environment.\r\nThe move follows closely on the heels of another significant format experiment by the group: earlier this year, Street Foods by Punjab Grill opened its first standalone dine-in restaurant in Malviya Nagar, New Delhi, stepping into the full-service neighbourhood dining space for the first time. The Gurugram launch pushes this high-street strategy further by pairing two brands — one rooted in North Indian street food and the other in pan-Asian cuisine — within a single hybrid unit, effectively doubling the menu offering available to walk-in customers at one address.\r\nSpeaking on the launch, Ranjit Paliath, CEO, Lite Bite Foods, said:\r\n“With the launch of Street Foods by Punjab Grill and Asia Seven in Sector 14, we’re taking a meaningful step beyond the mall and food-court formats that have defined our growth so far. This hybrid standalone format allows us to bring two of our most-loved brands directly into the neighbourhood, closer to where our guests live and work. It reflects our larger vision of building agile, high-street dining destinations that combine convenience with the quality and flavours our customers have come to expect from us.”\r\nStreet Foods by Punjab Grill is built around the legacy of Lite Bite’s flagship fine-dining brand, Punjab Grill, translating its Punjabi culinary heritage into a more accessible, street-food-inspired QSR format. The menu leans on classics such as kebabs, chaats, kulchas, matka dum biryani and kulhad chai, served in a modern, hygienic setup using eco-friendly earthenware.\r\n\r\nAsia Seven, meanwhile, is Lite Bite’s pan-Asian QSR brand, offering a fusion menu spanning Chinese, Japanese, Thai, Korean and Southeast Asian influences — from sizzlers and stir-fries to noodles, dumplings and sushi-style offerings, positioned for diners seeking quick, flavourful Asian fare.\r\n\r\nLite Bite Foods, founded in 2002 and headquartered in Gurugram, has grown into one of India’s largest F&amp;amp;B retail companies, with a portfolio that includes Punjab Grill, Zambar, YouMee, Asia Seven, among others, spread across malls, airports, high streets and hotels in India and abroad. The company has been actively diversifying its footprint strategy over the past year — expanding into tier-2 cities, testing new QSR formats, and now piloting co-located, hybrid standalone stores.\r\nFor Lite Bite, the Sector 14 launch serves as a test case for a leaner, mall-independent growth model — one that could allow the company to scale its QSR brands faster in high-street micro-markets while offering customers a wider combined menu at a single, easily accessible location.\r\nAddress: Main Huda Market, DLF Colony, Sector 14, Gurugram\r\nContact: 8130595466\r\nDelivering through Zomato &amp;amp; Swiggy.","articleSection":"Business","datePublished":"2026-10-05T19:43:14+0530","dateModified":"2026-10-05T19:46:58+0530","inLanguage":"en-us","author":{"@type":"Person","name":"PNN","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com/user/pnnindia"},"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Marudhara Bharti English","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com/uploads/logo/logo_6ab9270c36c334-01124948.png"}},"image":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://pnndigital.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/10/PNN-22.jpg","contentUrl":"https://pnndigital.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/10/PNN-22.jpg"},"keywords":["Lite","Bite","Foods","Debuts","First","Hybrid","Standalone","with","Street","Foods","Punjab","Grill","Asia","Seven","Gurugram"]}</script>

Plus Development Portfolio","name":"VB Group Expands Mumbai Presence with INR 7,200 cr. Plus Development Portfolio","articleBody":"Fast-emerging developer sharpens focus on premium Mumbai micro-markets with upcoming developments across Versova, Santacruz, Dadar, and Thane\r\nMumbai (Maharashtra) [India], October 5:VB Group, a fast-emerging and increasingly recognised name in Mumbai’s real estate landscape, is targeting a topline potential of more than INR 7,200 cr. from its upcoming development pipeline as it enters its next phase of growth. Building on nearly two decades of experience in construction and real estate, the group is expanding its presence across established and premium micro-markets in Mumbai and Thane, with a portfolio spanning residential and commercial developments.\r\nThe strategy is reflected in a near-term portfolio that brings together projects across Versova, Santacruz, Dadar and Vartak Nagar. The group’s 39-storey mixed-use development in Versova, spread across approximately 3.5 lakh sq. ft, and its 16-storey project in Santacruz are planned for launch in the third quarter of FY 2026-27. Its upcoming Dadar development, comprising residential and commercial components on a plot of approximately 3,000 sq. m, is planned for launch by January 2027. Anchoring the near-term portfolio is the group’s Vartak Nagar commercial development in Thane, with an estimated topline potential of approximately INR 700 cr.\r\nTogether, these developments mark a deliberate expansion into larger and more premium opportunities, while building on the group’s established presence in Thane and Mumbai. Rather than pursuing growth purely through the number of projects it takes on, VB Group is focusing on redevelopment opportunities in locations with strong market fundamentals, established demand and the potential to create premium developments. As part of its next phase of growth, the group is also evaluating opportunities in township development, with this emerging as a key focus area over the next 12 months as it looks to progressively expand into larger and more integrated developments.\r\nSpeaking about the group’s growth plans, Bhushan Bhanushali, Founder, VB Group, said, “VB Group is entering an important new phase in its journey, and our priority now is to build a business that is defined by the quality and potential of the opportunities we pursue, rather than simply by the number of projects we undertake. We are taking a more focused approach to Mumbai, identifying established markets where we see strong fundamentals and the opportunity to create premium developments with lasting value. Our forthcoming pipeline further includes a larger-scale project with a topline potential of INR 3200 cr., which represents an important step in our evolution towards undertaking larger opportunities. This growth is anchored in the capabilities we have built over the years in construction, execution and project management, and we will continue to strengthen those foundations as we expand.”\r\n“Our approach going forward is going to be selective,” added Rishikesh R Ranga, CEO, VB Group. “We are evaluating opportunities based on the location, the potential of the development and the value we can create through redevelopment. We are increasingly looking at Mumbai markets where the achievable ticket size is in the range of INR 60,000 to INR 70,000 per sq. ft and above. This does not mean we are looking to expand indiscriminately; the objective is to build a focused portfolio in locations where we believe our capabilities in execution, design and development can translate into stronger long-term value.”\r\nSince its inception in 2008, VB Group has evolved from a civil contracting business into an integrated real estate group, expanding into property development in 2010 and formally establishing itself as a group in 2020. To date, the group has delivered nine projects spanning approximately 1.3 million sq. ft., with more than 1.8 million sq. ft. currently under development and an upcoming pipeline of approximately 4.5 million sq. ft. As it enters its next phase of growth, VB Group is sharpening its focus on quality, premiumisation and innovation, building on its established presence in Thane while expanding its focus to established Mumbai micro-markets such as Dadar, Thane, Juhu, Santacruz West, Andheri West and Lokhandwala, where premium residential and commercial developments offer the potential for higher value creation and stronger price realisation.\r\nIf you object to the content of this press release, please notify us at pr.error.rectification@gmail.com.

A sudden medical bill, urgent home repair or unexpected family expense can require funds immediately. At other times, you may be planning an expense such as renovating your home, paying for a course or making a significant purchase.\r\nQuick Overview\r\n\r\n\r\nA personal loan can help manage urgent expenses when you need funds without pledging an asset as collateral.\r\n\r\n\r\nIt can also be used for planned expenses such as home improvements, education-related costs, travel, or large purchases.\r\n\r\n\r\nSince it is generally an unsecured personal loan, the lender usually evaluates factors such as income, credit history, age, and repayment capacity.\r\n\r\n\r\nBefore applying, compare the personal loan interest rate, processing fee, tenure, EMI and other applicable charges.\r\n\r\n\r\nUse a personal loan EMI calculator to estimate your monthly repayment and assess whether it fits your budget.\r\n\r\n\r\nAvoid borrowing for expenses that can be postponed or when the EMI could put significant pressure on your monthly finances.\r\n\r\n\r\nA personal loan can be considered in both situations because it can provide access to funds without requiring the borrower to pledge an asset as collateral. However, borrowing should be based on your financial capacity rather than simply the availability of credit.\r\nUnderstanding when a personal loan can be useful, how much you can comfortably repay and what charges apply can help you make a more informed borrowing decision.\r\nWhen Can a Personal Loan Be Useful?\r\nA personal loan may be useful when you have a genuine financial requirement and need a structured way to fund it. Since personal loans are generally unsecured, you do not typically need to provide collateral such as property or gold.\r\nSome situations where borrowers may consider a personal loan include:\r\n\r\n\r\nMedical or other urgent expenses\r\n\r\n\r\nHome repairs or renovation\r\n\r\n\r\nEducation-related expenses\r\n\r\n\r\nWedding expenses\r\n\r\n\r\nPlanned travel\r\n\r\n\r\nLarge household purchases\r\n\r\n\r\nConsolidating certain existing debts, subject to financial suitability\r\n\r\n\r\nThe right borrowing option depends on the nature and urgency of the expense. For example, if you are planning an expense several months in advance, saving towards it may be another option worth considering.\r\nYour personal loan eligibility will also depend on the lender’s criteria. Factors such as age, income, employment or business profile, credit history and existing financial commitments may be considered.\r\nUsing a Personal Loan for Emergency Expenses\r\nEmergencies can create financial pressure because the expense may be unavoidable and difficult to postpone. If you do not have enough readily available savings, a personal loan may be one way to meet the requirement.\r\nFor instance, an unexpected medical expense or urgent home repair could require a substantial amount at short notice. A personal loan can provide a predetermined amount that can then be repaid through EMIs over an agreed tenure.\r\nHowever, it is important to consider the total borrowing cost before applying. The personal loan interest rate, processing fee and other applicable charges can affect the overall amount you repay.\r\nBefore taking a loan for an emergency, consider:\r\n\r\n\r\nThe amount you actually need: Borrow only what is required rather than taking a larger amount simply because you are eligible for it.\r\n\r\n\r\nYour repayment capacity: Check whether the EMI can be accommodated alongside rent, household expenses, existing EMIs and savings.\r\n\r\n\r\nThe total cost: Look beyond the interest rate and check processing fees and other applicable charges.\r\n\r\n\r\nThe repayment period: A longer tenure can reduce the monthly EMI but may increase the total interest payable.\r\n\r\n\r\nAn emergency does not eliminate the need to assess affordability. Taking a loan that you cannot comfortably repay could create additional financial stress after the immediate problem has been addressed.\r\nCan a Personal Loan Help With Planned Expenses?\r\nA personal loan can also be considered for planned expenses when you need funds before you have accumulated sufficient savings. The key is to evaluate whether borrowing is financially practical.\r\nFor example, you may be planning a home renovation or a significant household purchase. Instead of paying the entire cost from your available savings, you may consider financing part of the expense through a personal loan.\r\nHowever, planned expenses give you more time to compare alternatives. You could potentially save for the expense, reduce the purchase amount, or explore a loan product specifically designed for that purpose.\r\nConsider the following before borrowing:\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nConsideration\r\n\r\n\r\nWhat to assess\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nUrgency\r\n\r\n\r\nCan the purchase be postponed?\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nAmount required\r\n\r\n\r\nDo you need to finance the entire expense?\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nSavings\r\n\r\n\r\nCan you pay part of the cost from existing savings?\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nEMI\r\n\r\n\r\nCan you comfortably manage the monthly repayment?\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nTotal cost\r\n\r\n\r\nWhat will you repay after interest and applicable charges?\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nFor planned purchases, borrowing should ideally fit into your broader financial plan rather than becoming a substitute for regular saving.\r\nHow to Decide If You Can Afford a Personal Loan?\r\nAffordability is not determined only by whether you meet the lender’s personal loan eligibility criteria. A lender’s approval indicates that you meet its requirements; it does not necessarily mean that the EMI will be comfortable for your personal budget.\r\nStart by calculating your monthly income and regular expenses. Include existing loan EMIs, rent, utility bills, insurance premiums, household expenses and other recurring commitments.\r\nYou can then use a personal loan EMI calculator to estimate the EMI for different loan amounts, interest rates and tenures. This can help you understand how changing the loan amount or repayment period affects your monthly obligation.\r\nBefore proceeding, ask yourself:\r\n\r\n\r\nWill the EMI remain manageable if my monthly expenses increase?\r\n\r\n\r\nDo I have sufficient emergency savings?\r\n\r\n\r\nAm I already repaying other loans?\r\n\r\n\r\nDoes the expense justify taking on additional debt?\r\n\r\n\r\nCan I continue meeting my regular savings goals after paying the EMI?\r\n\r\n\r\nA practical assessment should account for both the immediate expense and your ability to manage repayments throughout the loan tenure.\r\nWhat to Check Before Choosing a Personal Loan?\r\nOnce you decide that borrowing may be suitable, compare the terms rather than focusing on the approved loan amount alone.\r\nPersonal Loan Interest Rate\r\nThe interest rate directly affects the cost of borrowing. Compare the applicable personal loan interest rate and understand whether the rate and repayment terms offered suit your financial situation.\r\nProcessing Fee\r\nLenders may charge a personal loan processing fee for processing and disbursing the loan. Check the applicable fee and whether taxes or other charges apply.\r\nLoan Tenure\r\nA longer tenure may result in a lower monthly EMI, while a shorter tenure may mean higher monthly repayments. Compare the total repayment amount under different tenure options.\r\nEMI and Repayment Schedule\r\nMake sure you understand the EMI amount, repayment frequency and due dates. Missing repayments can have financial consequences, including additional charges and potential impact on your credit profile.\r\nEligibility Requirements\r\nCheck the lender’s personal loan eligibility criteria before applying. Requirements may include minimum income, age, employment or business profile, residence, credit history and other conditions.\r\nOther Terms and Charges\r\nRead the loan documentation carefully and check for applicable charges related to late payments, foreclosure, partial prepayment, or other services, as applicable.\r\nWhen Should You Avoid Taking a Personal Loan?\r\nA personal loan may not be suitable in every situation. Consider avoiding or postponing borrowing when:\r\n\r\n\r\nThe purchase is non-essential and can easily be delayed.\r\n\r\n\r\nYou already have several outstanding loans or high monthly obligations.\r\n\r\n\r\nThe proposed EMI would leave very little room for essential expenses.\r\n\r\n\r\nYou are borrowing primarily to fund recurring monthly expenses.\r\n\r\n\r\nYou have not compared the total cost of borrowing.\r\n\r\n\r\nYou can comfortably meet the expense by using savings without significantly affecting your emergency fund.\r\n\r\n\r\nYou are considering taking a new loan to repeatedly manage existing debt without addressing the underlying cash-flow issue.\r\n\r\n\r\nBorrowing for one expense can also affect your ability to take care of future financial requirements. Therefore, consider both your current need and your longer-term financial commitments before making a decision.\r\nConclusion\r\nA personal loan can be considered for both unexpected emergencies and planned expenses, provided the borrowing requirement is genuine and the repayment fits comfortably within your budget. Comparing the personal loan interest rate, processing fee, tenure and other applicable charges can help you understand the overall cost.\r\nBefore applying, check your personal loan eligibility and use a personal loan EMI calculator to estimate the monthly repayment. Most importantly, borrow only an amount that you can reasonably repay while continuing to manage your essential expenses and financial goals.\r\nFAQs\r\nWhat expenses can a personal loan be used for?\r\nA personal loan can generally be used for various personal requirements, such as medical expenses, home renovation, education-related costs, weddings, travel or significant household purchases, subject to the lender’s terms and conditions.\r\nWhen should I consider taking a personal loan for an emergency expense?\r\nYou may consider a personal loan when an urgent expense cannot be postponed, your available savings are insufficient, and you have adequate repayment capacity. Compare the loan cost and EMI before applying.\r\nCan I use a personal loan for planned purchases?\r\nYes, a personal loan can be used for eligible planned personal expenses. However, compare the cost of borrowing with alternatives such as saving for the purchase or using a suitable purpose-specific loan.\r\nHow do I know if I can afford a personal loan?\r\nReview your income, essential expenses, existing EMIs and savings before borrowing. You can also use a personal loan EMI calculator to estimate the monthly repayment for different loan amounts, interest rates and tenures.\r\nWhat should I check before applying for a personal loan?\r\nCheck the personal loan interest rate, processing fee, tenure, EMI, eligibility requirements, repayment terms and other applicable charges. Also assess whether the proposed EMI fits comfortably within your monthly budget.","articleSection":"Business","datePublished":"2026-10-05T16:32:53+0530","dateModified":"2026-10-06T14:17:23+0530","inLanguage":"en-us","author":{"@type":"Person","name":"PNN","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com/user/pnnindia"},"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Marudhara Bharti English","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com/uploads/logo/logo_6ab9270c36c334-01124948.png"}},"image":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://pnndigital.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/09/PNN-2026-09-28T181649.509.jpg","contentUrl":"https://pnndigital.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/09/PNN-2026-09-28T181649.509.jpg"},"keywords":["From","Emergency","Expenses","Planned","Purchases:","When","Can","Personal","Loan","Help"]}</script>

From everyday shopping bags to premium corporate gifting solutions, Urban Rivington is reimagining how businesses and individuals approach sustainable packaging.\r\nRethinking the Way India Gifts\r\nGift hampers have always been an integral part of Indian celebrations, corporate relationships, festivals, and special occasions. However, traditional hamper packaging often follows a familiar pattern: attractive boxes, plastic baskets, laminated packaging, and decorative materials that are discarded shortly after the gift is opened.\r\nUrban Rivington is challenging this conventional approach by introducing reusable bags that become an integral part of the gift rather than disposable packaging.\r\nIts jute, canvas, and juco hamper bags are designed to serve a purpose long after the occasion has passed. Whether used for shopping, storage, travel, or everyday errands, these bags offer recipients something they can continue using.\r\nThe idea is simple: the packaging should not end with the unwrapping. It should become another useful gift.\r\nFrom Everyday Bags to Premium Gifting Solutions\r\nUrban Rivington’s journey has evolved alongside the growing demand for sustainable alternatives across India’s retail and corporate sectors.\r\nInitially focused on reusable bags for everyday requirements, the brand gradually expanded into customized solutions for businesses, events, and gifting occasions.\r\n\r\nA showcase of Urban Rivington’s diverse sustainable bag collection, featuring customized designs and branding.\r\nToday, its product range includes:\r\n\r\nJute Gift Hamper Bags\r\nTransparent Window Hamper Bags for elegant product visibility\r\nBottle Gift Bags\r\nCanvas Gift Bags\r\nJuco Gifting Bags\r\nCustomized Corporate Hampers with logo printing\r\nFestival and Event Packaging Solutions\r\nCustomized Shopping and Promotional Bags\r\n\r\nWhat makes these solutions particularly relevant for businesses is their flexibility. Bags can be customized in different sizes, designs, colours, and prints, including company logos, campaign artwork, and personalized messages.\r\nThis allows brands to create packaging that reflects their identity while encouraging recipients to reuse the product.\r\nWhy Sustainable Hampers Are Becoming a Preferred Choice\r\nThe growing interest in sustainable gifting is driven by three important factors:\r\n1. Sustainability\r\nReusable bags provide an alternative to single-use packaging, helping reduce dependence on disposable materials. Their continued usability makes them a practical choice for environmentally conscious consumers and businesses.\r\n2. Functionality Beyond Gifting\r\nUnlike conventional packaging that often loses its purpose once the gift is opened, jute, canvas, and juco bags can be reused for shopping, travel, storage, and everyday activities.\r\n3. Extended Brand Visibility\r\nFor corporate buyers, customized gifting bags offer an additional advantage. A branded bag can travel with its recipient, creating repeated brand impressions long after the original gifting occasion.\r\nThis makes customized sustainable bags particularly suitable for employee welcome kits, festive hampers, wedding favours, corporate events, promotional campaigns, and premium retail packaging.\r\nWhen a Corporate Gifting Bag Travels Across the World: A 361 Degrees Marketing Case Study\r\nOne of the interesting examples of Urban Rivington’s customized bag solutions comes from 361 Degrees Marketing, a customer that partnered with the brand for its corporate gifting requirements.\r\nThe bags were customized with campaign-related printing, transforming an everyday reusable product into a branded gifting experience.\r\nWhat made the campaign particularly memorable was what happened afterwards.\r\nSome recipients shared photographs of the customized bags while travelling internationally, including destinations such as France and New York, along with several other locations across the world.\r\nWhat started as a corporate gifting initiative in India gradually became a journey of brand visibility across international destinations.\r\nFor 361 Degrees Marketing, this demonstrated how thoughtfully designed reusable merchandise can extend a campaign’s presence beyond its original audience and geography.\r\nFor Urban Rivington, it reflected the practical value of customized bags – a product designed for gifting can continue communicating a brand’s identity through everyday use and travel.\r\nThis is where sustainable gifting goes beyond packaging. It becomes a medium for storytelling, engagement, and lasting brand recall.\r\nPart of a Bigger Shift Towards Responsible Gifting\r\nUrban Rivington’s growth reflects a broader change in how consumers and businesses approach purchasing decisions.\r\nSustainability is increasingly becoming part of conversations around product design, packaging, corporate responsibility, and brand identity.\r\nBusinesses are looking beyond conventional promotional merchandise and exploring products that combine utility with responsible consumption.\r\nIn this changing landscape, reusable jute, canvas, cotton, and juco bags offer a practical solution of bringing together sustainable alternatives, customization, affordability, and everyday functionality.\r\nAs Gujarat’s and other Indian markets continue to witness interest in eco-conscious gifting and promotional products, Urban Rivington is positioning itself within this evolving space.\r\nThe Man Behind the Mission\r\nAt the centre of Urban Rivington is its founder, Meet V. Shah, an MBA in Marketing with over 5+ years of experience in the manufacturing and distribution of reusable bags.\r\n\r\nLeft:Meet Shah, Founder of Urban Rivington, Ahmedabad. Right: Urban Rivington’s Store, Ahmedabad.\r\nHis entrepreneurial approach is built around a simple belief: business growth and environmental responsibility can go hand in hand.\r\nRather than treating sustainability as a passing trend or a premium positioning, Shah aims to make reusable alternatives accessible, affordable, and practical for everyday use.\r\nThis philosophy has influenced Urban Rivington’s evolution from everyday reusable bags to customized corporate gifting and sustainable hamper solutions.\r\nFor Shah, the objective is not simply to manufacture eco-friendly products but to create products that people genuinely want to use repeatedly.\r\nBecause ultimately, the impact of a sustainable product lies not just in how it is made, but in how long it continues to serve a purpose.\r\nAnd with Urban Rivington, the vision is clear: to make every bag more than just packaging: a reusable product that carries value, purpose, and a story.\r\nUrban Rivington is based in Ahmedabad, Gujarat.

Bookings for both routes are open, Thiruvananthapuram International Airport said in a statement on Saturday.\r\nFlights to Riyadh will operate on Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Saturdays, while the Bahrain service will run on Thursdays and Saturdays. The additions will give passengers more travel options between southern Kerala and the two Gulf destinations.\r\nThe Riyadh connection addresses what airport authorities described as a long-standing demand for direct access to the Saudi capital. Air India Express already operates a daily service to Dammam, and the new route will widen its connections between Thiruvananthapuram and Saudi Arabia.\r\nAirport authorities said the Riyadh service is expected to particularly benefit expatriates from southern Kerala and neighbouring Tamil Nadu who live and work in Saudi Arabia. For passengers who would otherwise need a connecting itinerary, the direct service could remove a stopover from the journey.\r\nOn the Bahrain route, the airline will join Gulf Air, which already operates daily flights from Thiruvananthapuram. The additional departures will give passengers another carrier to consider when comparing schedules and fares.\r\nThe expansion is based on an existing Gulf network. As noted by the airport, Thiruvananthapuram currently sees “over 250 weekly arrivals and departures” to and from the Gulf, which is vital for the city.\r\nAir India Express’s booking webpage shows Thiruvananthapuram – Riyadh for travel on 27 October.

Named after Aranyani, the Vedic goddess associated with the forest and its untamed beauty, the collection draws inspiration from the raw, elemental richness of nature — an idea reflected in every formulation. Woven into every Arayani formulation is FutureBlend™, FutureMe’s signature formulation philosophy and a considered expression of ethnobotanical synergy.\r\nFutureMe’s Nourishing Face Oil embodies this approach through a non-greasy, velvet-textured formula designed to deliver intensive nourishment without the heaviness traditionally associated with facial oils. Free from volatile essential oils, the formula focuses on pure, potent botanical oils to provide deep comfort and renewal while remaining gentle on the skin.\r\nFor Supriya Mody, Founder and CEO, FutureMe this approach to formulation is also about making luxury skincare feel considered rather than complicated. She says, “Conscious luxury also means respecting the consumer’s intelligence and time. When a product is well thought out, it earns trust quietly. That’s the feeling I wanted FutureMe to evoke confidence without intimidation, indulgence without excess, and a sense of ease that allows the product to speak for itself.”\r\nA key ingredient is Bakuchi Oil, valued for its distinctive botanical profile and its role in supporting collagen synthesis and cellular renewal. The formulation is designed to help soften the appearance of fine lines, improve skin texture and address visible signs associated with photoaging.\r\nA specialised botanical complex derived from the unsaponifiables of Soya, Olive and Wheat Germ oils supports the skin’s natural moisture barrier by influencing Filaggrin, a protein essential to maintaining healthy skin function. As Filaggrin contributes to the formation of the skin’s Natural Moisturizing Factor (NMF), supporting this pathway can help improve moisture retention, leaving the skin feeling deeply hydrated, supple and resilient.\r\n \r\nThe formula is further enriched with Arjuna Tree Extract, selected for its skin-smoothing and rejuvenating properties. It helps visibly reduce the appearance of wrinkles while improving the look and feel of skin firmness and smoothness. Marshmallow Root, Rice Bran and Licorice Root extracts complete the formulation with a synergistic botanical complex designed to support a more even and luminous complexion. Together, these ingredients help address the appearance of pigmentation while providing antioxidant support against everyday environmental stressors.\r\nBeyond its brightening power, this complex is packed with high potency natural antioxidants that provide an essential layer of protection, shielding the skin from environmental stressors while ensuring long-lasting health and clarity.\r\nThe Arayani Collection is available at The House of FutureMe, Mumbai and at https://futuremeworld.com/in/product/the-nourishing-face-oil/","articleSection":"Business","datePublished":"2026-10-03T14:25:18+0530","dateModified":"2026-10-03T14:31:47+0530","inLanguage":"en-us","author":{"@type":"Person","name":"Correspondent Desk","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com/user/marudharabharti"},"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Marudhara Bharti English","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com/uploads/logo/logo_6ab9270c36c334-01124948.png"}},"image":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEii2w5LKyGh7NTq6XIyy-M9Khgs-LNgFFX7RUwbF5zup9TAWEW4gw0zSb6wHP0T7VwdPFRiVRb6zubTDp7sGCTKZebEEoZn6eq9iufzIbfQxcrSgJhIWYnHr7ASXEiqKsZR7BlB6r9G-ohizRg4TsMVYKexgTGmjrNBaJqX3bB4_7O559ovdfiFVuIT31_P=w1600","contentUrl":"https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEii2w5LKyGh7NTq6XIyy-M9Khgs-LNgFFX7RUwbF5zup9TAWEW4gw0zSb6wHP0T7VwdPFRiVRb6zubTDp7sGCTKZebEEoZn6eq9iufzIbfQxcrSgJhIWYnHr7ASXEiqKsZR7BlB6r9G-ohizRg4TsMVYKexgTGmjrNBaJqX3bB4_7O559ovdfiFVuIT31_P=w1600"},"keywords":["Experience","the","transformative","power","‘liquid","gold’:","FutureMe’s","Arayani","Nourishing","Face","Oil"]}</script>

The G7 countries also committed to avoiding energy export restrictions among partner countries.\r\nThe issue had gained attention as diesel prices climbed and governments looked for ways to increase available fuel supplies. The Trump administration had been pressing European countries to release part of their emergency diesel stocks, with the possibility of US export restrictions being discussed if they did not act.\r\nThat possibility is now off the table, at least for the time being.\r\nG7 agrees to release 100 million barrels\r\nThe G7 said it would coordinate the release of 100 million barrels of diesel and crude oil from emergency reserves through the International Energy Agency. The exact contribution from individual countries was not immediately detailed.\r\nThe first phase of the release is expected to give priority to diesel supplies. The move follows a much larger emergency release coordinated by the IEA earlier this year after the conflict involving Iran disrupted energy markets.\r\nThe latest decision is aimed at increasing fuel availability as international markets deal with tight supplies and high prices.\r\nEurope has become an important market for US diesel, making the possibility of an American export restriction a concern for fuel buyers outside the US as well. A reduction in US shipments could have forced importing countries to find alternative supplies in an already tight market.\r\nWhy the US was considering restrictions\r\nThe discussion around diesel exports was driven largely by high fuel prices in the United States.\r\nTrump had said as recently as September 30 that discussions about restricting diesel exports were taking place. His administration had also asked European countries to draw down emergency stocks to increase supply in the market.\r\nAn export restriction could have kept more diesel inside the US, potentially increasing domestic availability. But the measure also carried wider implications because American refineries supply diesel to overseas markets.\r\nThe United States is a significant diesel exporter, so any major reduction in shipments would have affected buyers in Europe and other regions. Industry concerns also centred on the possibility that US refiners could adjust production if overseas sales became more difficult.\r\nEurope agrees to use emergency stocks\r\nThe pressure on European countries resulted in discussions around releasing their own emergency diesel reserves.\r\nEuropean governments considered a proposal under which European countries would release 50 million barrels of diesel, while IEA members would release another 50 million barrels of crude oil. The G7 subsequently announced the broader 100-million-barrel release.\r\nThe arrangement also includes a commitment from G7 countries to refrain from restricting energy and petroleum-product exports between partner countries.\r\nFor fuel markets, the immediate focus will now shift from the possibility of a US export ban to how quickly the additional stocks can reach the market.\r\nWhat it means for global fuel markets\r\nThe decision removes one potential source of uncertainty for international diesel supplies. Importing countries that rely on US cargoes will not have to prepare for an immediate disruption from a US export ban.\r\nHowever, the wider supply situation remains dependent on several factors, including the pace of reserve releases, refinery output and developments affecting crude and refined-product flows.\r\nThe IEA has already been involved in coordinating emergency releases this year. According to Reuters, members had released around two-thirds of the 400-million-barrel volume agreed in March.\r\nThe latest G7 commitment therefore adds another supply measure rather than completely changing the underlying energy-market conditions.\r\nFor businesses that use diesel heavily, including transport and logistics companies, the direction of fuel prices will remain important. Diesel costs feed into the movement of goods and can influence operating expenses across several industries.\r\nFor now, however, one immediate risk has been removed. The United States will not proceed with the diesel export ban that had been under consideration, while G7 countries move ahead with a coordinated release of emergency fuel stocks.\r\nPNN Business\r\n","articleSection":"Business","datePublished":"2026-10-03T14:25:13+0530","dateModified":"2026-10-03T14:29:54+0530","inLanguage":"en-us","author":{"@type":"Person","name":"PNN","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com/user/pnnindia"},"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Marudhara Bharti English","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com/uploads/logo/logo_6ab9270c36c334-01124948.png"}},"image":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://pnndigital.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/10/PNN-8-1.jpg","contentUrl":"https://pnndigital.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/10/PNN-8-1.jpg"},"keywords":["Trump","Rules","Out","Diesel","Export","Ban","After","Reserve","Deal"]}</script>

Every Vital. Every Second. ASTA HealthTech Is Building the Intelligence Layer for Tomorrow’s Hospitals.","name":"Every Bed. Every Vital. Every Second. ASTA HealthTech Is Building the Intelligence Layer for Tomorrow’s Hospitals.","articleBody":"Bengaluru (Karnataka) [India], October 2 : What if a hospital could recognise that a patient&#039;s condition was starting to deteriorate before a conventional alarm became the first warning? And what if a doctor reaching the bedside could see at once how that patient&#039;s physiology had been changing, instead of piecing together scattered numbers, charts and observations?\r\nThat is the problem Bengaluru-based ASTA HealthTech is trying to solve. The company is developing an India-built Physiological Pattern Learning Model (PPLM), designed to help hospitals move from reactive patient monitoring towards predictive clinical intelligence. It continuously interprets how vital signs change over time and converts those signals into actionable clinical context.\r\nMonitors Show Numbers. Patterns Tell the Story.\r\nAlmost every modern ICU, recovery unit and monitored ward already generates a flood of data: heart rate, blood pressure, oxygen saturation, respiratory rate, ECG waveforms. Yet clinicians care for several patients at once, and conventional alarms typically fire only when a predefined threshold is crossed. Deterioration, however, does not always begin with one dramatic number. It can begin as a pattern.\r\nASTA&#039;s PPLM is built around that insight. Rather than waiting for a single vital sign to breach a limit, it evaluates physiological trajectories across heart rate, SpO₂, blood pressure and respiratory rate, looking for meaningful deterioration patterns and providing evidence-linked clinical context.\r\nASTA says the system can also offer guarded forecasts of vital signs, including short-term\r\n+15 and +30-minute trajectories with uncertainty displayed. It is designed to keep observations, trained scores, forecasts and model reasoning clearly separate. That distinction matters. ASTA is clinical decision support, not an autonomous diagnosis system. The doctor remains the decision-maker.\r\nNo New Monitors Required\r\nThe most practical part of ASTA&#039;s approach is its deployment model. Hospitals are not asked to replace their existing bedside monitors. Instead, an intelligent camera faces the monitor, not the patient, and computer vision converts the displayed vital signs into structured,\r\ntime-stamped data. For this monitor-reading layer, ASTA says no proprietary API or hardware connection is required.\r\nASTA reports that its technology has been trained on 100+ million labelled monitor frames, supports 15+ monitor OEM brands, and is deployed across 10+ hospitals in India. By working with existing hospital equipment, ASTA aims to make advanced clinical decision support more accessible without costly infrastructure replacement.\r\nGiving Time Back to Clinicians\r\nThe larger story, however, is human. Doctors should spend their expertise on patients, clinical judgement and treatment decisions, not on searching for data. Nurses should spend\r\ntheir time caring for patients rather than manually observing, recording and communicating routine information.\r\nASTA&#039;s vision is an intelligent layer across monitored beds that continuously captures and structures vital information, identifies meaningful changes and helps direct attention to the patients who may need it most.\r\n&quot;ASTA isn&#039;t trying to replace clinicians with AI,&quot; the company says. &quot;We are trying to give clinicians something healthcare desperately needs: time, context and earlier visibility.&quot;\r\nImagine a ward where technology watches the numbers continuously so that healthcare professionals can concentrate on the human being behind them. AI handles continuous observation. Clinicians provide the judgement. Patients receive the attention.\r\nMade in India. Built for the World.\r\nASTA HealthTech is led by a multidisciplinary founding team combining technology, clinical expertise, AI, and business leadership. Dr. Vikram Paramasivan, CEO &amp;amp; Co-Founder, brings 15+ years of enterprise technology experience; Dr. Kumaresh Krishnamoorthy, CMO &amp;amp; Co-Founder, brings 20+ years of clinical expertise as an ENT surgeon; Adyanta Dubey, CTO &amp;amp; Co-Founder, leads AI, robotics, machine learning, and technical development; and Varun Singh, Co-Founder &amp;amp; Chief Business Officer, drives partnerships, market access, and commercial execution with 17 years of global business experience.\r\nTogether, they bring the expertise needed to build and scale intelligent, hospital-ready healthcare technology.\r\nASTA&#039;s development is linked with India&#039;s innovation ecosystem, with support cited from AIC-SEED, MeitY Startup Hub, IISER Pune and NIT Andhra Pradesh. For decades, India has supplied the world with doctors, nurses, engineers and software professionals. The next export may be healthcare intelligence developed at home, reaching not only premium hospitals but eventually healthcare systems across emerging and developed markets.\r\nThe company&#039;s mission is simple: no clinically meaningful change should go unnoticed just because nobody had time to connect the dots. The future hospital should not merely collect patient data.

The association brings together two enduring legacies — Kalamandir Jewellers’ four-decade journey in the jewellery industry and Siddharth Randeria’s remarkable contribution to Gujarati theatre and entertainment spanning more than five decades.\r\nThrough this partnership, Kalamandir Jewellers aims to strengthen its connection with consumers across generations while celebrating the values of trust, tradition, relationships and timeless craftsmanship that have been at the heart of the brand’s journey.\r\nSpeaking about the association, Milan Shah, Director, Kalamandir Jewellers, said, “We are delighted to welcome Siddharth Randeria to the Kalamandir family. His extraordinary journey in Gujarati theatre and entertainment, his ability to connect with audiences across generations and his deep cultural connect make this association particularly meaningful for us. Kalamandir has completed 40 years by building relationships rooted in trust, quality and transparency, and we see a strong resonance between these values and Siddharth Randeria’s journey. We look forward to creating meaningful stories and experiences together that celebrate our shared connection with people and tradition.”\r\nCommenting on the association, Siddharth Randeria said, “I am very happy to be associated with Kalamandir Jewellers, a brand that has built a strong legacy over four decades. Jewellery is much more than an ornament; it is connected to our celebrations, relationships, traditions and some of the most memorable moments of our lives. I see a natural connection between these values and Kalamandir’s journey. I look forward to being part of this association and celebrating the emotions and stories that make these moments truly special.”\r\nA renowned name in Gujarati theatre, Siddharth Randeria is an actor, writer, director, dramatist and producer. His association with theatre dates back to 1970, and his official profile states that he has been associated with more than 70 theatre productions and has crossed 12,000 live performances. Over the years, his work has built a strong connection with Gujarati audiences in India and overseas, with the Gujjubhai franchise emerging as one of the defining successes of his theatre career.\r\nRanderia’s contribution extends beyond theatre into Gujarati cinema, where he has been associated with films including Gujjubhai the Great, GujjuBhai – Most Wanted and Chaal Jeevi Laiye!. His official production platform describes Gujjubhai as a theatre brand that developed a strong mass cultural connect and subsequently expanded into cinema.\r\nThe association comes at an important milestone for Kalamandir Jewellers, which completes 40 years of its journey. Established in 1986 in Kosamba near Surat, the brand has grown from a small jewellery store into a prominent retail jewellery group. Over the years, its journey has been built around customer trust, quality, transparency and a balance of tradition and innovation. These principles continue to form an important part of Kalamandir’s brand and customer promise.\r\nThe collaboration with Siddharth Randeria is envisioned as a celebration of shared values and generational connections. While Kalamandir Jewellers represents four decades of relationships built around jewellery and cherished occasions, Randeria brings more than five decades of storytelling and cultural connection with audiences.\r\nWith Siddharth Randeria as its new brand ambassador, Kalamandir Jewellers enters its next chapter with a shared vision — to celebrate the timeless significance of jewellery and the stories, relationships and moments that make every piece meaningful.","articleSection":"Business","datePublished":"2026-10-02T18:37:53+0530","dateModified":"2026-10-02T18:40:16+0530","inLanguage":"en-us","author":{"@type":"Person","name":"PNN","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com/user/pnnindia"},"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Marudhara Bharti English","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com/uploads/logo/logo_6ab9270c36c334-01124948.png"}},"image":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://pnndigital.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/10/PNN-6.jpg","contentUrl":"https://pnndigital.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/10/PNN-6.jpg"},"keywords":["Kalamandir","Jewellers","onboards","Siddharth","Randeria","Brand","Ambassador"]}</script>

Serving someone well is the most serious kind of care.\r\nBengaluru (Karnataka) [India], October 1: In most Indian homes, the first question isn’t “how are you”. It’s “khana khaya?” Your grandmother asks it. Your mother asks it on the phone from another city. The neighbour asks it when you drop in for five minutes. Food is how we check on people, and serving someone a proper meal has always been taken very seriously.\r\nStaff Reporter · Food &amp;amp; Lifestyle Desk · Bengaluru, Karnataka\r\nNeemsi, the pure vegetarian restaurant with outlets in JP Nagar and Basavanagudi, is built on that habit. It opened in April 2024, and everything about the place, from what goes into the kitchen to how a guest is met at the door, comes back to one line the team uses internally: no one at a Neemsi table eats second best.\r\nTwo plants, one name\r\nNeemsi is neem and tulsi joined into one word. Neem is the tree at the edge of the compound that keeps the house safe. Tulsi grows in the courtyard and is offered to a guest before anything else is discussed. Both show up at the restaurant before the food does.\r\nNeem incense is lit at the entrance before every service, at both outlets, so it is the first thing you smell walking in. A house-made tulsi palate cleanser reaches the table as soon as you sit down, before anyone has taken an order. It is served in the restaurant’s own glassware.\r\nNothing here comes to the table straight out of a bottle.\r\nSpices that come straight from the farmer\r\nThe kitchen buys its whole spices directly from farmers in the regions known for them, instead of picking up packets from a wholesale market. Cardamom from Idukki in Kerala. Black pepper from Wayanad and Coorg. Byadgi chillies from north Karnataka, prized for their colour more than their heat. Jeera from Rajasthan and Gujarat, turmeric from Erode, saffron from Pampore in Kashmir.\r\nBuying this way means the spice reaches the kitchen fresher, with its oils intact, and the money goes to the person who actually grew it. You can taste the difference in something as simple as a dal tadka. A pod of cardamom that was on the plant a few months ago smells nothing like one that has sat in a godown for two years.\r\nGuests get to see this for themselves. The Spiceology wall inside the restaurant lays out the whole spices the kitchen cooks with and where each one comes from. People stop there between courses, read the cards, and very often end up talking to the staff about which masala their own family swears by. The kitchen is pure vegetarian, and most of the menu can be made Jain on request, so you only need to tell the steward when you sit down.\r\nA menu that starts with dishes you already know\r\nThe regular menu runs to over 100 dishes across North Indian, Italian, Thai, Continental and Indo-Chinese, and each of these cuisines comes with a Neemsi twist. The range matters when a table of eight wants eight different things. A lot of it takes a dish people grew up with and rebuilds it.\r\nThe Mysore Pak Cheesecake is exactly what it sounds like, the Mysuru sweet set into a cheesecake, and it is usually the first thing a regular tells a new guest to order. Dahi papdi chaat arrives with avocado. The Tapri Paneer Chilli is served in a cabbage nest. The taste you remember is still there. Everything around it has been rethought, which is where the restaurant’s line, “Veg Cuisine Redefined”, comes from.\r\nThe Neemsi Edit, and what’s on now\r\nThe Edit came about a year and a half after the restaurant opened, because so many guests had started coming back again and again. The share of repeat guests was higher than anything the team had seen, and those regulars needed something new to look forward to.\r\nSo every season, Neemsi now adds a short, limited menu called the Edit. Each one runs for a few months and is then taken off for good. The Summer Edit was built around Alphonso mango. The Monsoon Edit brought Jamun Ginger Jaljeera and a Mushroom Stroganoff Toast for rainy evenings.\r\nThe current one is the Festive Edit, on till 15 November 2026 and timed for Navratri, Durga Puja, Dussehra and Diwali. It is made for the many people in Bengaluru who can’t travel home for the festivals, and each dish points to a different part of the country. There is a Kolkata Mini Club Kachori with aloo saag, a Beetroot Galauti with molten pudina, a Sabudana Ratna Tikki with shakarkandi mousse, a Moringa and Rice Shorba made with the nugge soppu every Kannada kitchen knows, and a Royal Kunafa Toast with makhana kheer and mini rasgulla to finish.\r\nThe people who make it work\r\nThe kitchen team is in by 8 am, and prep for lunch starts right then. By 12, when the doors open, lunch is ready to go out. On the floor, the stewards are the ones guests mention most in their reviews, often before they get to the food. They will warn you when a portion is big enough to share.\r\nIf there is a birthday at the table, dessert has a way of arriving without anyone asking. When a family walks in with a toddler, the high chair is usually already waiting.\r\nNone of this is complicated. It just has to happen at every table, every service, at both outlets. That is the hard part, and it is what the team spends most of its effort on.\r\n“People don’t come to a restaurant only to eat. They come because it’s someone’s birthday, or the in-laws are visiting, or it’s been a long week. Somebody has trusted us with that evening. If they leave a little happier than they came in, we’ve done our job. We take that responsibility very seriously.”\r\nFOUNDER, NEEMSI\r\nFamilies, kitty parties and big tables\r\nWalk in on a Sunday afternoon and you will see three generations at one table, with the grandparents ordering Jain, the kids going straight for the Italian, and everyone sharing the dessert. On weekdays, the lunch service is popular with kitty parties and office groups.\r\nBirthdays, anniversaries and small family celebrations make up a good part of the bookings. The Basavanagudi outlet sits on KR Road, in a neighbourhood that has always taken its food seriously.\r\nThe JP Nagar outlet is in 6th Phase, close to a lot of south Bengaluru’s family homes.\r\nTwo and a half years in, the two restaurants have more than 20,000 Google reviews between them, with an average rating of 4.8, and a third outlet is being planned. The growth has come mostly from guests who come back and bring someone new with them. For a restaurant built on the idea of serving people well, that is probably the result that counts most.\r\nPlan your visit\r\nJP NAGARGround Floor, Sai Panorama, 15th Cross Road,KR Layout, JP Nagar 6th Phase, Bengaluru560078+91 96860 60429\r\nBASAVANAGUDI2, Krishna Rajendra Road, Basavanagudi,Bengaluru 560004+91 96860 60443\r\nTIMINGSLunch 12 noon – 3:30 pmDinner 7 pm – 11 pm\r\nCOST FOR TWOAround ₹1,500\r\nPure veg · Jain on request\r\nRESERVATIONSneemsirestaurant.com\r\nFestive Edit till 15 Nov 2026\r\nIf you object to the content of this press release, please notify us at pr.error.rectification@gmail.com.

They’ll Understand.","articleBody":"\r\nNew Delhi [India], October 1: SpotX, a SaaS platform founded by Sanya Jindal and Virkaran Singh, is building an AI-powered technology layer that brings audience intelligence, analytics, automation and accountability to digital screen networks.\r\nWalk into a mall, restaurant, retail store, cinema or real-estate experience centre and chances are you will encounter a digital screen.\r\nThey are everywhere.\r\nBut while digital screens have become increasingly sophisticated, the technology managing them has often remained surprisingly basic: upload content, schedule it and play it.\r\nSpotX believes the screen can do much more.\r\nFounded by Sanya Jindal and Virkaran Singh, SpotX is a SaaS platform designed to turn distributed screen networks into intelligent, measurable and centrally managed business infrastructure.\r\nThe platform brings together content management, campaign scheduling, AI-powered audience analytics, remote monitoring, proof-of-play, automation and performance intelligence within a single system.\r\nThe idea is simple: if businesses can track, analyse and optimise almost every interaction in the digital world, why should physical screens be any different?\r\nWhen a Screen Becomes More Than a Display\r\nFor years, the success of a digital screen campaign has largely been measured by whether the content was displayed.\r\nSpotX is looking at the bigger picture.\r\nThrough camera-powered audience intelligence, the platform is designed to help businesses understand factors such as audience demographics, dwell time, engagement patterns and content performance—creating a richer layer of data around what happens in front of a screen.\r\nThat changes the role of the screen.\r\nIt is no longer simply a surface for communication. It becomes a source of operational and audience intelligence.\r\n“The real opportunity is not just putting intelligence into the screen, but creating an intelligence layer around the entire screen ecosystem,” said Sanya Jindal, Founder &amp;amp; Director, SpotX. “We are looking at how audience data, content performance, campaign delivery and operational metrics can work together to create a much clearer picture of what is happening in a physical environment. The ability to analyse these signals in real time can help businesses understand audience behaviour, identify patterns and continuously optimise content and campaigns. In many ways, we are bringing the analytical depth businesses are accustomed to in digital environments into the physical world.”\r\nFrom ‘Did It Play?’ to ‘Did It Work?’\r\nRunning a screen network at scale comes with a different set of problems.\r\nIs the screen online? Is the right campaign playing? Did every scheduled impression run? Which device has gone offline? What content is running at a particular location? Can everything be updated without sending someone to the site?\r\nSpotX is designed to bring these questions into one dashboard.\r\nBusinesses can manage content, build playlists, schedule campaigns, monitor device health, track connectivity and generate proof-of-play reports remotely.\r\nFor DOOH operators and brands managing distributed networks, this creates a more transparent connection between campaign delivery, operational performance and audience data.\r\n“The problem we are solving is very practical,” said Virkaran Singh, Founder, SpotX. “When a business has screens across multiple locations, managing them individually quickly becomes inefficient. SpotX brings those operations into one platform so teams can deploy content, schedule campaigns, monitor devices and verify delivery without constantly relying on manual intervention. The goal is to make screen networks easier to operate, easier to control and ultimately easier to scale.”\r\nOne Dashboard. Hundreds of Locations. Thousands of Screens.\r\nSpotX is built for businesses where screens are not limited to one location.\r\nFrom a central dashboard, teams can publish content, update playlists, schedule campaigns, manage permissions and remotely monitor screen and device status across multiple sites.\r\nThe platform also integrates with Canva, allowing creative teams to move more seamlessly from designing content to deploying it across screen networks.\r\nIts hardware-flexible approach is designed to work with existing infrastructure, including web- and Android-based deployments, helping businesses modernise their screen networks without necessarily replacing the underlying hardware.\r\nThe company says SpotX is already managing 1,500+ screens across 75+ business locations, with applications spanning retail, QSR, hospitality, healthcare, real estate, malls, cinemas and Digital Out-of-Home (DOOH).\r\nWhy This Matters Now\r\nThe physical world is becoming increasingly digital.\r\nRetailers are using screens to influence purchase decisions. Restaurants are deploying dynamic menus and promotions. Malls and cinemas are combining advertising with information and entertainment. Real-estate brands are turning experience centres into immersive digital environments.\r\nAs the number of screens grows, so does the complexity of managing them.\r\nAnd that is where SpotX sees an emerging opportunity—not simply to help businesses run more screens, but to help them understand what those screens are doing.\r\nThe company is building toward a model where content, audience intelligence, automation and measurement operate together, creating a more connected layer between media owners, advertisers, businesses and audiences.\r\nThe Screen Economy Is Changing\r\nThe first generation of digital screens was about replacing static displays.\r\nThe next could be about making those displays intelligent.\r\nSpotX is betting that the future of physical-world communication will be shaped not just by what appears on a screen, but by the data, automation and intelligence operating behind it.\r\nAnd if that vision plays out, the screen in front of you may no longer be simply showing you something.\r\nIt may be learning from what happens around it.\r\nAbout SpotX\r\nSpotX is a SaaS platform for intelligent screen network management, enabling businesses to centrally manage content, automate campaigns, remotely monitor screens and measure performance.\r\nIts capabilities include AI-powered audience intelligence, analytics, proof-of-play reporting, multi-location screen management, dynamic content automation and enterprise governance.\r\nSpotX serves screen-driven industries including DOOH, retail and QSR, malls and cinemas, hospitality, real estate and healthcare.\r\nWebsite:SpotX.in\r\nIf you object to the content of this press release, please notify us at pr.error.rectification@gmail.com.

In modern clinical practice, treating an impacted tooth or a curved root canal using only 2D radiographs is akin to navigating a complex highway exchange with a two-dimensional map: critical spatial depth is entirely lost.\r\nThe integration of advanced digital imaging has fundamentally altered this paradigm. By providing high-resolution, volumetric data of sub-surface structures, digital modalities allow clinicians to shift from reactive intervention to predictive, highly targeted treatment planning. At the forefront of this evolution is Fredna Dental Systems (FDS), India’s largest dental diagnostic centre, which brings advanced digital imaging capabilities to the centre of modern dental diagnostics.\r\nDifferent clinical presentations require distinct imaging tools. The modern digital workflow leverages a spectrum of hardware depending on the required resolution, field of view, and anatomical scope.\r\nDigital intraoral X-rays offer instant rendering and high-contrast local views with a low radiation footprint, making them ideal for detecting interproximal decay and checking margin fits. Panoramic radiography provides a broad extraoral overview of the entire arch in a single exposure, useful for general jaw assessments.\r\nWhen sub-millimetre anatomical detail is required, Cone Beam Computed Tomography (CBCT) provides true 3D volumetric reconstructions without distortion. Complementing these are intraoral scanners, which capture dynamic 3D surface meshes to eliminate physical impression materials for digital aligners, crowns, and guided surgery templates.\r\nThird molar extractions frequently present anatomical challenges. Wisdom teeth often erupt at severe angles or develop root tips in close proximity to the inferior alveolar nerve, the nerve pathway responsible for lower lip and chin sensation. On a standard 2D panoramic radiograph, a root tip may appear superimposed directly over the nerve canal, leaving the surgeon to estimate whether the structures are actually touching or merely overlapping in perspective.\r\nConsider a lower third molar whose roots curve directly around the inferior alveolar canal. On a standard film, you see an overlap and have to estimate proximity. On a CBCT volume, you can rotate the jaw in 3D space, measure the exact distance to the nerve in fractions of a millimetre, and plan an extraction vector that avoids neurological injury altogether.\r\nBy utilizing targeted CBCT scans in complex cases, clinicians eliminate guesswork. Reconstructing the jaw in three dimensions reveals the true spatial relationship between bone, tooth, and nerve pathways, significantly minimizing post-operative complications and nerve morbidity.\r\nRoot canal therapy presents its own set of micro-surgical challenges inside an unseen environment. The internal architecture of a tooth can feature calcified channels, lateral branches, accessory canals, or severe root curvature that flat radiographs fail to reveal.\r\nMissed canals, such as the frequently obscured MB2 canal in upper first molars, are a leading cause of endodontic retreatment. 3D digital imaging exposes these hidden pathways long before access opening. Furthermore, viewing exact canal angles and radii allows clinicians to select instrument tapers that preserve natural tooth structure and prevent instrument fracture, while real-time digital radiovisiography provides immediate feedback during canal cleaning and sealing.\r\nBeyond diagnostic accuracy, digital imaging streamlines interdisciplinary workflows and patient governance. High-resolution digital files can be instantly transmitted across cloud networks, allowing general dentists, endodontists, and oral surgeons to collaborate on complex cases in real time.\r\nWhen patients observe high-definition 3D renders of their own tooth structures on a chairside screen, treatment necessity becomes visually self-evident, building clinical trust and informed consent. Additionally, digital sensors require significantly lower radiation exposure compared to historical film-based methods, aligning with modern safety protocols.\r\nThe evolution of dental diagnostics is rapidly moving toward integrated intelligence. At Fredna Dental Systems, this evolution is reflected in the integration of advanced imaging technologies and digital diagnostic workflows, while emerging software pipelines utilize artificial intelligence algorithms to automatically highlight early decay, spot periapical lesions, and trace nerve pathways automatically.\r\nHowever, advanced hardware and software remain tools to support clinical judgment. The application of imaging must always be tailored to individual patient presentation, balancing diagnostic yield with clinical necessity. When applied thoughtfully, digital imaging transforms unpredictable dental procedures into precise, repeatable, and patient-centred treatment outcomes.","articleSection":"Business","datePublished":"2026-10-02T13:39:06+0530","dateModified":"2026-10-02T13:40:54+0530","inLanguage":"en-us","author":{"@type":"Person","name":"PNN","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com/user/pnnindia"},"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Marudhara Bharti English","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com/uploads/logo/logo_6ab9270c36c334-01124948.png"}},"image":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://pnndigital.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/10/PNN-2026-10-01T195554.194.jpg","contentUrl":"https://pnndigital.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/10/PNN-2026-10-01T195554.194.jpg"},"keywords":["Beneath the Surface","Digital Imaging","Re-Engineering Precision Dentistry"]}</script>

The Company highlighted the significant progress made during FY2025-26 and outlined its roadmap to build Jaipur Kurti into a stronger, more scalable and nationally recognised Indian women’s fashion brand.\r\nFY2025-26: Strong Growth with Increasing Focus on Quality of Growth\r\nNandani Creation Limited recorded a turnover of approximately ₹110 crore in FY2025-26, representing growth of approximately 50% over the previous financial year. While the Company continues to focus on revenue growth, its approach is increasingly centred on the quality and sustainability of growth. The Company is strengthening operational efficiency, inventory productivity, working-capital management, asset utilisation, cost discipline and sustainable profitability.\r\nProject 50: Expanding the Retail Footprint with Purpose\r\nA key strategic initiative is Project 50, under which Jaipur Kurti is working towards expanding its Exclusive Brand Outlet network to 50 stores by March 2027. The Company views Project 50 as more than a store expansion programme. Each new store is intended to create a new customer touchpoint, provide insights into local consumer preferences and strengthen Jaipur Kurti’s understanding of different geographies and customer segments.\r\nAs the retail network expands, the Company is simultaneously strengthening its people, processes, technology, merchandising, warehousing, supply chain and data capabilities to support store productivity and sustainable growth.\r\nFrom Multiple Channels to One Integrated Consumer Ecosystem\r\nJaipur Kurti is building an integrated omnichannel business across Exclusive Brand Outlets, Large Format Retail, Shop-in-Shop formats, Marketplaces, D2C and social media. The Company’s strategy is to give each channel a distinct role within the broader consumer ecosystem:\r\n\r\nRetail creates brand experience and physical customer engagement.\r\nD2C enables direct consumer relationships and loyalty.\r\nMarketplaces provide wider geographic reach and customer acquisition.\r\nSocial media drives discovery, engagement and brand interaction.\r\nData and technology connect these channels and enable better decision-making.\r\n\r\nThe Company believes the future opportunity lies not in viewing these channels independently, but in creating an ecosystem where each channel strengthens the others. A consumer may discover Jaipur Kurti through social media, purchase through a marketplace, experience the brand through a store and subsequently return through the Company’s D2C platform. The objective is to progressively convert these interactions into long-term customer relationships.\r\nTechnology, Data and AI Becoming Core Business Capabilities\r\nAs Jaipur Kurti expands across physical and digital channels, the volume of consumer and business data generated by the Company is also increasing. The company is therefore progressively strengthening its use of data analytics and Artificial Intelligence across areas including product and assortment planning, demand forecasting, inventory allocation, replenishment, customer understanding, pricing and promotions, digital marketing, sales analysis and operational planning.\r\nThe Company believes that the combination of human creativity, fashion expertise, business experience, data and AI can become an important competitive capability for Jaipur Kurti.\r\nStrengthening the Operating Engine Behind Growth\r\nWith increasing scale across stores, marketplaces, D2C and retail partners, operational excellence is becoming an increasingly important part of the Company’s strategy. Nandani Creation is focusing on improving warehousing, inventory visibility, allocation, replenishment and supply-chain capabilities, with the objective of ensuring that the right product reaches the right location at the right time.\r\nThe Company believes that stronger inventory productivity and operational discipline can support customer availability while maintaining greater control over working capital.\r\nBuilding a Brand with an Identity\r\nJaipur Kurti’s philosophy remains centred on creating Indian fashion that combines design, quality, accessibility and value for the modern Indian woman. The brand aims to remain contemporary in its thinking, Indian in its identity and accessible to customers across the country.\r\nThe Company continues to invest across product development, design, technology, digital marketing, people, operations and customer experience to strengthen the brand and create a more integrated fashion business.\r\nCommenting on the Company’s next phase of growth, Mr. Anuj Mundhra, Chairman &amp;amp; Managing Director of Nandani Creation Limited, said: “Our objective is not growth for the sake of growth. We are building the capabilities that can make growth sustainable -stronger retail, a deeper digital presence, better inventory productivity, technology-led decision-making, and a closer understanding of our customers. Project 50 represents an important step in this journey, but the larger opportunity is to build Jaipur Kurti into an integrated fashion ecosystem where retail, D2C, marketplaces, social media, data and technology work together. We believe that the combination of our Indian fashion identity, customer understanding, people, technology and disciplined execution can create a stronger and more scalable business for the years ahead.\r\nThe Company believes that its next phase will be defined not only by the number of stores it opera’tes or the channels through which it sells, but by its ability to build a trusted brand, understand its customers better, operate more efficiently and create sustainable long-term value for all stakeholders.\r\nThe Company places on record its appreciation for the continued support of its shareholders, customers, employees, franchise partners, vendors, bankers, business partners and other stakeholders.”","articleSection":"Business","datePublished":"2026-10-02T13:39:06+0530","dateModified":"2026-10-02T13:42:26+0530","inLanguage":"en-us","author":{"@type":"Person","name":"PNN","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com/user/pnnindia"},"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Marudhara Bharti English","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com/uploads/logo/logo_6ab9270c36c334-01124948.png"}},"image":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://pnndigital.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/10/PNN-5.jpg","contentUrl":"https://pnndigital.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/10/PNN-5.jpg"},"keywords":["Rooted in Jaipur","Growing Across India","Brand ‘Jaipur Kurti’"]}</script>

Employees expressed strong confidence in management’s ability to run the business, while an even higher proportion said their work feels meaningful and purposeful. Purpose and pride emerged as defining strengths, with employees expressing great pride in Sekhmet’s accomplishments and its contribution to the community. Physical safety and access to the resources needed to do the job were among the highest-scoring areas.\r\nSantosh Mahil, MD and CEO, Sekhmet Pharmaventures, said: “This recognition affirms that our people and culture are central to how Sekhmet performs and grows. We are building an organisation where talent thrives, innovation flourishes, and every employee can connect their contribution to our ambition of becoming the preferred global CDMO partner.”\r\nJitendra Shriram Jalan, Chief Human Resources Officer, Sekhmet Pharmaventures, said: “The strength of this certification is that it is shaped by employee voice. Our responsibility now is to keep listening, convert insight into action and build a future-ready workplace where people perform with purpose, grow with pride and share in Sekhmet’s success.”\r\nBacked by PAG (an alternative investment firm focused on Asia-Pacific with around USD 55 billion in assets under management), Sekhmet today has revenue of nearly INR 1,500 crore. A consortium of PAG, CX Partners and Samara Capital acquired Chennai-based Anjan Drugs in October 2020 and Hyderabad-based Optimus Drugs in September 2022 under the Sekhmet banner. Sekhmet is in the middle of a strategic transition from an API and intermediates base into an integrated CDMO platform serving global innovators. The 1,000-day plan, tracked at the Board level, sets a clear path to INR 2,000 crore through organic expansion, deeper customer relationships and new high-compliance capacity currently under construction. That ambition requires a workforce that is aligned, capable and invested in the outcome. YTD FY27, year-on-year revenue &amp;amp; bottom-line growth is the momentum created when strategic clarity, capability and accountability move together.\r\nA culture anchored in purpose and performance\r\nThe certification reflects sustained work across the employee lifecycle. Sekhmet’s culture is built around a clear belief: Every Person Matters—every Day Counts. At Sekhmet, culture is treated not as a standalone HR programme but as an operating system, reflected in leadership behaviour, manager practices, employee development, recognition, safety, compliance and daily decision-making.\r\nA structured induction and assimilation experience combines practical onboarding with organisational purpose, values and leadership interaction. The Sekhmet Learning Academy offers a curated blend of self-paced, functional, and leadership development programs, designed around employee aspirations and evolving business needs. \r\nTown halls, CEO and CXO interactions, manager check-ins, HR Business Partner conversations, skip-level discussions and pulse surveys create multiple listening channels. Recognition programmes make ownership visible by rewarding measurable contribution, improvement, collaboration, innovation and alignment with iCORE. iCORE is the company’s values framework, translating Integrity, Compliance, Ownership, Respect and Collaboration, and Excellence into expected behaviours and business outcomes.\r\nCulture and business performance reinforce each other.\r\nUnder Sekhmet 2.0, the organisation connects growth, customer depth, CDMO transformation, workplace culture, capability and ESG into a single operating framework. Goals cascade through scorecards, team objectives and individual KRAs, reinforced through reviews, leadership communication and manager conversations.\r\nThe road ahead\r\nSekhmet views certification as a milestone, not an endpoint. Employee feedback received during the exercise will continue to shape priorities and investment as the company works to make opportunity, recognition, collaboration and positive day-to-day experiences more consistent across teams, levels and locations. The goal is to scale without losing the trust, meaning and ownership employees have identified as cultural strengths.\r\n\r\n","articleSection":"Business","datePublished":"2026-10-01T18:21:22+0530","dateModified":"2026-10-01T18:22:49+0530","inLanguage":"en-us","author":{"@type":"Person","name":"PNN","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com/user/pnnindia"},"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Marudhara Bharti English","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com/uploads/logo/logo_6ab9270c36c334-01124948.png"}},"image":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://pnndigital.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/10/Untitled-design-58.jpg","contentUrl":"https://pnndigital.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/10/Untitled-design-58.jpg"},"keywords":["Sekhmet Pharmaventures","Great Place to Work® Certification"]}</script>

Adisoft Technologies Limited designs and builds that kind of equipment for Indian manufacturers. Its first annual report as a listed company shows profit growing faster than income in FY26, and a new plant under construction because the existing one is running at full stretch.\r\nThe demand shows up in robot data. India installed almost 10,500 industrial robots in 2025, up 15% on the previous year and enough to rank sixth in the world, according to the International Federation of Robotics’ World Robotics 2026 report, released on September 24. Annual installations grew at an average of 27% a year between 2020 and 2025. Carmakers and their suppliers have set the pace. In the IFR’s previous edition, the automotive industry accounted for 45% of robots installed in India in 2024, and installations by parts suppliers rose 40% to about 2,100 units.\r\nPolicy has added to the pull. The Centre’s Production Linked Incentive schemes had attracted investment of more than ₹ 2.16 lakh crore by December 31, 2025, and led to incremental production and sales of over ₹ 20.41 lakh crore, according to a Press Information Bureau release in March 2026. Each new production line is also a potential order for the companies that design and integrate the equipment inside it.\r\nAdisoft, incorporated in Pune in 2013, works in that integration layer. It builds automated assembly lines, robotic and collaborative-robot work cells, material handling systems and special purpose machines, and adds vision-based inspection, error-proofing, traceability and utility monitoring on top, connecting shop-floor equipment to a customer’s IT and ERP systems. Design, development, assembly and testing are done in-house. A second, smaller stream comes from trading automation products such as PLCs, HMIs, sensors and drives. The company’s argument is that most integrators specialise in one shop, weld or paint or assembly, while it takes on all of them for a customer; it has worked across automotive weld, assembly, paint and engine lines since 2018.\r\nFor the year ended 31st March 2026, the company reported Revenue from Operations of ₹ 166.42 Cr against ₹ 130.34 Cr in FY25, and total income of ₹ 169.33 Cr, up 26.7%. EBITDA rose 42.4% to ₹ 32.84 Cr and Profit After Tax 42.9% to ₹ 22.80 Cr, lifting the net profit margin to 13.5% from 12.0%. These are standalone figures; consolidated revenue is identical. Debt-to-equity fell to 0.30x from 0.58x, net worth reached ₹ 72.3 Cr against ₹ 21.4 Cr in FY23, and return on equity for the year was 31.52%.\r\nThe notes to the accounts show where the growth came from. Domestic automation projects brought in ₹ 112.81 Cr, up from ₹ 73.74 Cr, and product trading rose to ₹ 37.16 Cr from ₹ 32.91 Cr. Other lines went the other way. Service income fell to ₹ 13.50 Cr from ₹ 19.72 Cr, and exports, which began with deliveries to Bangladesh and Bahrain, came to ₹ 2.95 Cr against ₹ 3.97 Cr. For now, this is a domestic project business.\r\nIt is a reasonably wide one. The company says it has served more than 950 customers, completed over 1,000 installations and delivered projects in more than ten Indian states, with a workforce of over 200. Automotive manufacturers and their suppliers remain the core. The annual report names pharmaceuticals, packaging and printing, white goods, electronics and industrial infrastructure as the segments it wants to grow in. Since 2021 it has also held a 24% stake in AIOI Systems India, a tripartite joint venture with Japan’s AIOI Systems Co. Adisoft  has also received ISO 9001:2015 certification for its quality management system on 10 June 2026.\r\nAdisoft assembles its systems at a 12,000 sq ft unit in MIDC Bhosari, and the annual report says operations are at peak utilisation because of space and manpower limits. A new integrated facility, with 70,000 sq ft of built-up area on a 30,000 sq ft plot in Bhosari, is under construction at a capex of ₹ 37.8 Cr funded from IPO proceeds. It will bring manufacturing, assembly, design and corporate functions under one roof. In his letter to shareholders, Chairman &amp;amp; Managing Director Mr. Ajay Chandrashekhar Prabhu said the plant is expected to be partly available for manufacturing from December 2026 and fully functional by April 2027, and that the expansion “is expected to support 4-5 times the current revenue base.”\r\nThe IPO that funds it was completed after the year closed: Adisoft issued 43,08,000 equity shares and listed on the NSE Emerge platform on 30 April 2026.\r\nThe year’s shape carries a caveat. Business is weighted heavily towards the second half: H2 accounted for 71% of FY26 revenue and 77% of profit after tax, which pushed up receivables and payables at the year end. Management expects these to clear in the first half of FY27, in line with past years.\r\nBeyond the plant, the stated agenda is to add capability in robotics, vision, connectivity and analytics, widen the customer base across industries and build exports through partners and reference installations. Management has set targets for FY27 of about 25% revenue growth, a sustainable PAT margin of 13-14% and a debt-free balance sheet by the end of the year. Those are targets rather than results, and the report lists project execution delays, and the availability of skilled people among the risks that could get in the way.

The discussion is necessary, but it must move beyond a familiar assumption: that expanding insurance coverage alone will resolve the affordability challenge.\r\nInsurance is an essential part of healthcare protection. However, it is designed around defined risks, conditions and coverage limits. The actual financial journey of a patient is often more complicated. Treatment may involve exclusions, waiting periods, co-payments, non-covered medicines, medical devices, diagnostics or procedures that fall outside the policy. Many families may also have no insurance or insufficient coverage for the treatment being recommended.\r\nThis creates a financing gap between the cost of care and the amount immediately available to the patient.\r\nWhen Treatment Cannot Wait\r\nHealthcare expenses are different from most household purchases. A family can postpone buying a vehicle or renovating a home, but an angioplasty, cancer therapy, cochlear implant or urgent surgery may not offer the same flexibility. The decision must often be made within hours or days, even when the required money is unavailable.\r\nIn such circumstances, families commonly depend on savings, informal borrowing, the sale of assets or high-cost credit. Some delay treatment, choose a less suitable option or discontinue therapy midway. Affordability, therefore, does not merely determine how a bill is paid. It can influence whether treatment begins at all.\r\nThe missing layer is purpose-built healthcare financing that is accessible at the point of care and structured around the treatment journey.\r\nFinancing Should Complement Insurance\r\nMedical financing should not be viewed as a substitute for insurance. The two serve different but complementary purposes. Insurance protects against covered healthcare risks, while financing can help bridge the immediate shortfall when coverage is absent, partial or delayed.\r\nThis is particularly relevant for elective treatments, advanced therapies, recurring medicines, diagnostic procedures and medical devices. It can also support insured patients awaiting reimbursement, enabling them to proceed with treatment without placing the entire interim burden on their households.\r\nFor this system to work responsibly, financing must be transparent, appropriately assessed and suited to the patient’s repayment capacity. Speed is important in healthcare, but it cannot come at the expense of responsible lending.\r\nBuilding Finance Around the Patient\r\nTechnology has made it possible to assess applications, complete digital verification and disburse medical loans far more quickly than traditional lending processes allowed. However, technology is only part of the solution. Healthcare financing also requires coordination among hospitals, pharmaceutical companies, medical-device manufacturers, insurers and lenders.\r\nAt Arogya Finance, we have seen how financing embedded at the point of care can reduce friction for patients. Our model combines digital assessment with healthcare partnerships to offer no-cost or low-cost EMI options, depending on the programme. The objective is to make appropriate treatment financially reachable, including for people who may remain outside conventional lending systems.\r\nThe Next Affordability Conversation\r\nIndia needs wider insurance coverage, stronger public healthcare, greater price transparency and continued action on medical inflation. Alongside these priorities, healthcare financing deserves recognition as part of the country’s affordability infrastructure.\r\nThe question before policymakers should not only be how many people are insured. It should also be what happens when insurance does not cover the complete cost, when reimbursement takes time or when a family must pay before treatment can begin.\r\nClosing that gap will require insurance and financing to work together. Healthcare becomes meaningfully accessible only when the availability of treatment is matched by a practical and responsible way to pay for it.\r\n","articleSection":"Business","datePublished":"2026-10-01T18:21:21+0530","dateModified":"2026-10-01T18:27:57+0530","inLanguage":"en-us","author":{"@type":"Person","name":"PNN","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com/user/pnnindia"},"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Marudhara Bharti English","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com/uploads/logo/logo_6ab9270c36c334-01124948.png"}},"image":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://pnndigital.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/09/Untitled-design-19.jpg","contentUrl":"https://pnndigital.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/09/Untitled-design-19.jpg"},"keywords":["As Healthcare Affordability","Jose Peter","Arogya Finance","Financing Gap Beyond Insurance"]}</script>

That is changing. New projects are filling in around Budigere Cross, the airport road that branches off here has made the junction far more useful, and this year the area got its first real high-rise.\r\nRuchira The Rise is a twin-tower launch by Ruchira Projects at Budigere Cross, where Old Madras Road meets the Budigere airport road. At 156 metres, it will be one of the tallest residential buildings in East Bengaluru. The question buyers are asking is simple: does the height come with enough substance to justify the price?\r\nWhat is Ruchira The Rise?\r\nThe project sits on 4 acres at Kondasanapura village, Bengaluru East, with 342 homes in two towers joined by a sky bridge. Tower I has 40 residential floors with six homes per floor, and Tower II has 32, with four per floor. Each tower has five lifts, and about 70% of the land is kept open.\r\nRuchira The Rise twin towers and sky bridge on Old Madras Road (artist’s impression)\r\nThe mix leans towards families: 69 two-bedroom homes of 1,443 to 1,776 sq.ft, 207 three-bedroom homes of 1,826 to 2,057 sq.ft, and 31 each in 3.5 BHK and 4 BHK formats of up to 3,726 sq.ft. Four duplexes sit at the top. Floor-to-floor heights of 11 feet make the rooms feel noticeably larger.\r\nAbout the Builder: Ruchira Projects\r\nRuchira Projects has built in Bengaluru for over 13 years under founder Ram Goniguntla, delivering Ruchira Iris in Whitefield, Ruchira Aarna in Immadihalli and Ruchira Lilium in Kadugodi. Park East at Kannamangala and Villa Feliz off Sarjapur Road are under construction. The Rise is its first tower above 40 floors, so buyers would do well to visit a completed Ruchira project and speak to residents first.\r\nRuchira The Rise Price\r\nThe pre-launch rate is ₹11,000 to ₹12,000 per sq.ft. That puts a 2 BHK at roughly ₹1.59 crore, a 3 BHK at about ₹2 to 2.5 crore and the largest 4 BHK at around ₹4.47 crore. The booking amount is ₹5 lakh, with a construction-linked payment plan. The rate excludes location premiums, floor rise, corpus, maintenance and registration, so ask for a full cost sheet for the exact unit.\r\nLocation: Budigere Cross and Around\r\nWhitefield and ITPL are about 10 km away, typically 20 to 30 minutes outside rush hour. Hoskote is roughly 10 km, KR Puram about 13 km and Kempegowda International Airport around 30 km via the Budigere–Devanahalli road. The developer counts more than 11 IT parks within 15 km.\r\nThe Satellite Town Ring Road, the proposed Bengaluru Business Corridor, a metro line under study towards Hoskote and a mall planned at Seegehalli for 2027 could all lift the area. For now, there is no metro nearby, Old Madras Road is busy at peak hours, and schools and hospitals are still catching up.\r\nAmenities and the Sky Bridge\r\nRuchira promises more than 100 amenities. The sky bridge carries its own facilities and viewing decks, while the lower levels hold a swimming pool, kids’ splash pool, gym, spa, amphitheatre and theatres.\r\n\r\nLandscaped garden and elevated walkway at Ruchira The Rise (artist’s impression)\r\nResidents also get badminton, squash and pickleball courts, a pet park, a senior citizens’ garden, a creche, co-working spaces and six guest suites for visiting family.\r\nRuchira The Rise Reviews: What Buyers Weigh Up\r\nBuyers are drawn by the views, the open space, the tall ceilings and a price below comparable homes nearer Whitefield. The common concerns are just as clear: RERA registration runs until 30 October 2031, so possession is a long way off, the tower is taller than anything Ruchira has delivered, and the neighbourhood still needs time to mature.\r\nWhat to Check Before Booking\r\nVerify RERA number PRM/KA/RERA/1251/446/PR/160726/008812 on the Karnataka RERA portal and read the quarterly updates. Ask for the carpet area of your unit, confirm that the booking is refundable before allotment (a 10% charge applies after), and get every charge in writing.\r\nThe Verdict\r\nRuchira The Rise brings genuine high-rise living, generous open space and a long amenity list to Old Madras Road at a pre-launch price below the Whitefield average. It suits buyers happy to wait until around 2031 who believe in the Budigere Cross corridor.

Ltd., in collaboration with Neusoft Medical Systems, has established a strategic service and spare-parts hub in Chennai to strengthen the management and distribution of medical imaging spare parts, components and accessories across India.\r\nThe initiative is aimed at supporting hospitals, diagnostic centres and healthcare institutions with a more responsive and reliable service infrastructure for advanced medical imaging systems, including CT, MRI, PET/CT and other diagnostic technologies.\r\nAs the adoption of advanced imaging equipment continues to grow across India, healthcare providers increasingly require dependable access to technical support, maintenance services and critical components. The new Truevis–Neusoft Mega Hub in Chennai has been established to address this requirement by bringing essential inventory closer to the Indian market and enabling a more organised and responsive distribution network.\r\n\r\nThe Chennai facility builds on the existing India-wide support network, complementing the established facility in Visakhapatnam and creating a stronger, more connected infrastructure for customers across the country. It will serve as a central point for receiving, managing and distributing medical imaging spare parts and accessories based on demand from customer locations.\r\nThe supply-chain model integrates international sourcing with centralised inventory management and pan-India distribution. Parts, tubes and accessories sourced from China can be consolidated and brought into India through the Free Trade Warehousing Zone (FTWZ) ecosystem, enabling structured customs processing, inventory management and onward distribution from Chennai.\r\nThrough this model, components can be dispatched to hospitals, diagnostic centres and healthcare institutions as required. The streamlined flow from global sourcing to the Chennai Mega Hub, inventory management and nationwide distribution is designed to make the availability of critical components more predictable and efficient.\r\nThe initiative also reflects a broader shift from equipment supply to complete service infrastructure. For healthcare providers, the value of sophisticated medical imaging technology depends not only on the performance of the equipment but also on the availability of timely and dependable support throughout its operational lifecycle.\r\n\r\nThe Mega Hub will support demand-driven inventory management by monitoring consumption patterns and requirements to maintain appropriate stock levels and enable timely replenishment. This approach is intended to improve inventory visibility, strengthen supply-chain readiness and reduce the risk of critical parts becoming unavailable when required. The facility will also support structured processes for returned and defective components, integrating forward distribution with reverse logistics.\r\nA Spokesperson from Truevis Technologies Pvt.Ltd. said, “The establishment of the Chennai Mega Hub marks an important step in strengthening the infrastructure that supports medical imaging across India. By bringing critical spare parts and accessories closer to healthcare institutions and combiningcentralisedinventory management with demand-driven distribution, we aim to enable a more responsive and dependable service ecosystem. Our collaboration withNeusoftreflects our commitment to supporting hospitals and diagnosticcentreswith the supply-chain readiness required to maintain the continuity and effectiveness of advanced imaging services.”\r\nChennai’s strategic position as a major logistics and business gateway further strengthens its role in connecting the Mega Hub with customer locations across the country. The facility will enable inbound shipments, inventory management and outbound distribution to be coordinated through a structured logistics framework, supporting service teams in accessing and moving components where they are needed.\r\nAs India’s healthcare infrastructure continues to expand and advanced diagnostic technologies become increasingly important to clinical decision-making, dependable service support will remain a critical priority. Through the Chennai Mega Hub, Truevis Technologies and Neusoft Medical Systems are investing in the infrastructure behind medical imaging technology and working towards a more connected, organised and responsive spare-parts ecosystem for healthcare institutions across India.\r\nIf you object to the content of this press release, please notify us at pr.error.rectification@gmail.com.

Designed for the modern woman who prefers jewellery that is expressive yet effortless, Pietra brings together coloured gemstones and refined silhouettes to create pieces that transition seamlessly from everyday dressing to special occasions.\r\nAt the heart of Pietra is the idea that minimalist jewellery does not have to be understated in spirit. The collection uses colour as its defining element, allowing gemstones to become the focal point while clean, contemporary designs keep the overall aesthetic elegant and versatile. From delicate pendants and earrings to rings and bracelets, the collection offers multiple ways to introduce a subtle pop of colour into the jewellery wardrobe.\r\nThe collection features a selection of gemstones including Amethyst, Garnet, Citrine, Topaz and Moissanite, with each stone bringing its own distinctive colour and character. Amethyst lends a soft, sophisticated purple hue, while Garnet introduces a rich, intense red. Citrine brings warm golden tones, and Topaz adds a crisp blue accent. The collection also incorporates Moissanite into contemporary designs, offering brilliance within the minimalist aesthetic.\r\nBeyond their visual appeal, the colour stones in Pietra are inspired by the personal meanings and emotions often associated with gemstones. Amethyst is traditionally linked with calm and tranquillity, Garnet with passion and energy, while Citrine is associated with optimism, success and abundance. This gives the collection an added layer of individuality, allowing women to choose jewellery not only for how it looks, but also for what resonates with them.\r\n\r\nCraftsmanship remains central to the collection. Each Pietra piece is designed with attention to the setting of the stone, ensuring that the gemstone remains the visual focus while complementing the clean lines of the jewellery. The collection is crafted in sterling silver, bringing together a cool metallic base with the richness of coloured stones.\r\n Versatility is one of Pietra’s key strengths. A delicate Amethyst pendant can add understated colour to a workwear ensemble, while a gemstone bracelet can elevate an evening look. The pieces can also be layered across earrings, pendants, rings and bracelets, allowing wearers to create combinations that reflect their individual style.\r\nWith Pietra, Kicky &amp;amp; Perky continues to explore contemporary jewellery through the intersection of colour, craftsmanship and everyday wearability. The collection reflects a growing preference for jewellery that can move beyond occasion dressing and become part of a woman’s personal style vocabulary.\r\nThe Pietra Collection is available online at Kicky &amp;amp; Perky, featuring gemstone rings, earrings, bracelets and pendants designed to bring colour and character to modern jewellery wardrobes.\r\nAvailable at https://kickyandperky.com/","articleSection":"Business","datePublished":"2026-10-01T15:14:45+0530","dateModified":"2026-10-01T15:20:04+0530","inLanguage":"en-us","author":{"@type":"Person","name":"PNN","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com/user/pnnindia"},"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Marudhara Bharti English","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com/uploads/logo/logo_6ab9270c36c334-01124948.png"}},"image":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://pnndigital.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/09/PNN-20-4.jpg","contentUrl":"https://pnndigital.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/09/PNN-20-4.jpg"},"keywords":["Kicky &amp; Perky","Pietra","The Art of Colour Stones","Minimalist Jewellery"]}</script>

It brought together tourism, culture, community, adventure, sport and conservation across the Eastern Himalayas.\r\nHeld from September 25 to 27 aligned with World Tourism Day, KTF 2026 travelled across Siliguri, Darjeeling, Sonada, Rongtong and Sukna. It brought together participants and stakeholders from North Bengal, Sikkim, Nepal, Bhutan and Bangladesh, with Malaysia participating as an observer country.\r\nThe festival’s underlying message was: the Eastern Himalayas are not separated by borders, but connected by culture, communities and shared experiences.\r\nFrom 32 rural stalls to 150 dancers: a festival that put communities centre stage\r\nThe festival opened at City Centre, Siliguri, with 32 stalls showcasing 2,906 rural products from Bhutan, Nepal, Darjeeling hills, Sikkim and North Bengal. Artisans, homestay owners and rural entrepreneurs brought their products and stories together, giving visitors a glimpse into the diverse communities that make up the Kanchenjunga region.\r\nOne of the opening day’s visual highlights was a spectacular presentation of Vande Mataram by nearly 150 dancers representing eight classical dance forms, commemorating 150 years of the national song. The programme then moved eastward with performances by Mangka and the Laihui Ensemble from Manipur, extending KTF’s cultural canvas into the wider Northeast.\r\nThe festival also featured dance, music, art and drama competitions, Mr &amp;amp; Miss Kanchenjunga and ethnic fashion showcases highlighting Lepcha, Limbu, Bhutia and Northeast traditions. A 76-foot nail-art painting added another record-oriented attraction to the festival.\r\nDarjeeling discovers a new way of slow tourism\r\nOne of the key new initiatives was the launch of The Queen’s Trail, a carbon-neutral heritage walk through Darjeeling’s colonial-era architecture and landmarks, ending at the iconic Darjeeling Railway Station.\r\nDesigned around slow tourism, zero waste and local homestays, the walk seeks to offer family travellers a more immersive way to experience Darjeeling while creating opportunities for local communities.\r\nTourism conversations move beyond sightseeing\r\nAt GTA Chautare in Sonada, homestay leaders, students and tourism experts from India, Nepal and Bhutan came together for discussions around rural, cultural and community-led climate-resilient tourism.\r\nThe festival’s expert panel discussions also explored adventure, sports and mountain preservation, as well as AI, innovation, wellness and tourism beyond sightseeing, bringing together practitioners from tourism, conservation, technology and community tourism.\r\n73 cyclists, a heritage railway and an unusual journey\r\nAnother distinctive KTF initiative was Pedal with DHR, which saw 73 cyclists travel from Siliguri Junction towards Rongtong along the Darjeeling Himalayan Railway route.\r\nThe initiative also brought 20 destitute elderly women from Siliguri onto the UNESCO World Heritage railway journey alongside travel agents, writers and influencers, turning a tourism experience into an exercise in inclusion and community participation.\r\nWhen football became a message of solidarity\r\nAt Sukna, the festival took a sporting and humanitarian turn with “Play for Nepal”, an exhibition football match between East Bengal Legends and GTA XI, played beside the Darjeeling Himalayan Railway World Heritage route.\r\nLed by Padma Shri awardee and former Indian football captain Bhaichung Bhutia, the match brought several celebrated East Bengal players back together, with funds raised directed towards rehabilitation efforts for communities in Nepal affected by the recent disaster. The match was attended by Jhakka Prasad Acharya, Consul General of Nepal in Kolkata, reinforcing the cross-border message at the heart of KTF.\r\nCelebrating women and the flavours of the East\r\nThe festival concluded with the KTF Food Awards and Aadhya Travel Awards, the latter recognising women entrepreneurs and leaders whose contributions are helping shape tourism, hospitality and communities across the region.\r\nThe awards brought together voices from Eastern India and neighbouring countries, giving the festival a fitting close that celebrated both the region’s culinary diversity and the contribution of women to its tourism economy.\r\n24 years,  and looking towards 25\r\nFor ACT, KTF 2026 was more than another edition of an annual festival. It marked 24 years of working with grassroots communities and promoting resilient rural regeneration through tourism.\r\nWith its expanding geographical footprint, international participation, community initiatives, cultural programmes, heritage experiences, expert discussions and sporting outreach, KTF 2026 has laid the foundation for its 25th edition in 2027.\r\nBhaichung Bhutia, Padma Shri Awardee, former Captain of the Indian National Football Team and Goodwill Ambassador, KTF 2026, expresses, “KTF has always had the potential to be much more than a tourism festival. This year, the idea of ‘Culture Connects People’ came alive through music, heritage, tourism and sport. ‘Play for Nepal’ showed how football can create solidarity and bring people together across borders.”\r\nRaj Basu, Convenor, Association for Conservation &amp;amp; Tourism (ACT), informs, “For 24 years, KTF has been about connecting people across the Kanchenjunga region. This edition took that idea further, starting from grassroots communities and rural entrepreneurs to neighbouring countries and the wider Northeast. As we look towards the 25th edition, our focus will remain on building meaningful connections through responsible tourism, culture and community participation.”\r\nThe festival’s message found its strongest expression in the way culture, tourism and community action came together: from a heritage walk in Darjeeling to a cycling journey along the DHR, from rural products and indigenous performances to expert conversations and football for Nepal.\r\nKTF 2026 turned “Culture Connects People” from a festival theme into a lived experience across the Eastern Himalayas.\r\nIf you object to the content of this press release, please notify us at pr.error.rectification@gmail.com.

With this approval, the Company is now eligible to commence supply of the item to Indian Railways and its associated agencies.\r\nKey Highlights:\r\n\r\nIssuing Authority: Research Designs and Standards Organisation (RDSO), Ministry of Railways, Government of India\r\nItem ID: 3100430\r\nItem Description: Friction Wedge with specified range of Coefficient of Friction (C.O.F.)\r\nDecision: Prototype Approved\r\nEligibility: Company is now eligible to commence supply of the item to Indian Railways and its associated agencies\r\n\r\nA New Addition to an Established Railway Portfolio:\r\nThe Friction Wedge is a critical safety component used within the bogie suspension system, fitted between the bolster and the side frame to control the damping force that governs a wagon’s ride behaviour. It is used across several types of bogies, including the “Raftar” bogie, which RDSO has since formally designated as the CASNUB 22 RFT Bogie for high-speed freight wagons. By enhancing damping characteristics, the component improves the dynamic stability and speed potential of the vehicle, making it directly relevant as Indian Railways looks to move freight faster across the network. RDSO approval of a component’s prototype is a rigorous, product-specific qualification that acts as a significant entry barrier in the railway ecosystem, and clearing it reaffirms the consistency of Neetu Yoshi Limited’s manufacturing and quality processes, which have already secured similar approvals across the Company’s existing portfolio.\r\nThis approval adds a further item to Neetu Yoshi Limited’s existing portfolio of more than 25 RDSO-approved railway components, extending the Company’s long-standing relationship with Indian Railways. It builds on the Company’s ongoing diversification beyond wagon components into the coach, track and locomotive segments, strengthens its qualification to participate in upcoming procurement opportunities tied to the modernisation and speed-enhancement of Indian Railways’ rolling stock, and further consolidates Neetu Yoshi Limited’s position as a trusted, repeat-order supplier within the railway components ecosystem.\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nCommenting on the RDSO approvalMr. Himanshu Lohia, Managing Director cum Chief Financial Officer,Neetu Yoshi Limitedsaid, “This RDSO prototype approval for our Friction Wedge is a welcome addition to a relationship with Indian Railways that we have built over several years. The Friction Wedge is a specialised, safety-critical component, and this approval is a strong endorsement of our engineering and quality processes by the country’s apex railway design authority. It also positions us well to supply this item for the “Raftar” bogie, as Indian Railways looks to move freight faster across the network.

For growing businesses, it is fast becoming part of how daily operations run. Algoura (algoura.com), an AI automation company founded by Arihant Chhajer and Khushi Jain, is helping businesses make that shift. It builds production-grade AI systems that take over repetitive work, so teams can spend their time on growth rather than administration.\r\nThe busywork problem\r\nAcross industries, businesses lose hours every week to the same routine tasks. These include replying to enquiries, following up with leads, booking appointments, updating CRMs and compiling reports. Enquiries now arrive around the clock through websites, WhatsApp, Instagram and phone calls. A lead that goes unanswered overnight is often a lead lost to a competitor. Hiring more people to keep up is expensive, and it rarely solves the problem for long.\r\nAlgoura was founded on a simple belief: every business deserves an operations team that never sleeps.\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nWhat Algoura builds\r\nAlgoura works as a done-for-you partner rather than a software vendor. It studies how a business operates and identifies which tasks are worth automating. It then designs, deploys and manages the AI systems that do that work, and keeps improving them after launch.\r\nIts services span:\r\n\r\nAI chatbots: 24/7 support and lead qualification on websites, WhatsApp and Instagram.\r\nAI voice agents: human-like callers for sales, support and appointment booking.\r\nAI lead management: automated nurturing and follow-up sequences.\r\nAI appointment booking: smart scheduling synced to team calendars.\r\nAI customer support: instant query resolution across channels.\r\nAI sales automation: lead scoring, CRM updates and outbound sequences.\r\nAI workflow automation: internal processes automated end to end.\r\nAI content automation: blogs, emails, social posts and reports at scale.\r\nAI analytics and reporting: automated dashboards and daily business briefings.\r\n\r\n“Most businesses don’t have a talent problem. They have a busywork problem,” said Arihant Chhajer, Founder &amp;amp; CEO, Algoura. “Good teams lose hours every day answering the same questions, chasing leads and updating spreadsheets. We build AI systems that handle that work quietly and reliably, around the clock. The goal is not a clever demo. It is infrastructure a business can depend on.”\r\nA proven method, fast results\r\nAlgoura follows a four-step method:\r\n\r\nDiscover: analyse existing workflows and find the highest-impact opportunities.\r\nDesign: architect custom AI systems around the client’s tools and goals.\r\nDeploy: integrate them into production.\r\nOptimise: monitor and refine them continuously to maximise return on investment.\r\n\r\nA client’s first production automation typically goes live within two to four weeks.\r\nThe company has built more than 100 automations to date, saving clients over 500 hours of manual work every month. Its results include:\r\n\r\nA marketing agency: a 70% reduction in manual work, 3x faster lead response and a 40% increase in conversions.\r\nA real estate business: a 50% increase in appointments after deploying automated lead qualification and 24/7 follow-ups.\r\nAn education consultancy: AI-powered enquiry management that sped up student engagement and cut its support workload.\r\n\r\n“Every engagement is measured in outcomes, not features,” said Khushi Jain, Co-Founder &amp;amp; COO, Algoura. “We track hours saved, leads converted and revenue moved, and our clients see those numbers in their own dashboards. AI should make a business feel lighter to run. If our systems feel invisible to the team, we have done our job.”\r\nThe founders\r\nArihant Chhajer leads product and strategy at Algoura. He architects the AI systems behind client operations and focuses on turning automations from impressive demos into dependable, production-grade infrastructure.\r\nKhushi Jain leads operations, client success and growth. She ensures every engagement ships on time, measures the right outcomes and delivers returns clients can see for themselves.\r\nTogether, they describe themselves as two operators who grew tired of watching great businesses drown in repetitive work.\r\nBuilt on the tools businesses already use\r\nAlgoura does not ask clients to replace their existing software. Its systems connect with leading AI models, including OpenAI, Claude and Gemini. They also integrate with the tools teams already rely on, such as HubSpot, Salesforce, Google Workspace, Slack, WhatsApp and Calendly, using automation platforms such as Zapier, Make and n8n. The company serves clients across real estate, healthcare, education, finance, e-commerce, hospitality, legal, consulting, manufacturing and marketing.\r\nProducts built in-house\r\nAlongside client work, Algoura builds its own AI products:\r\n\r\nPinnara (pinnara.ai) is an AI SEO platform that turns a single keyword into a published blog post in about three minutes. Each post is optimised for search engines, answer engines and generative AI search, and can be published to WordPress or Shopify in one click.\r\nMCA Explorer (mcaexplorer.in) gives businesses verified Indian company intelligence through a single API, including master data, director profiles and filings.\r\n\r\nLooking ahead\r\nAlgoura plans to expand its AI voice and agent offerings and to deepen its work with Indian enterprises and industry bodies. Its aim is to become the “autonomous business layer” for companies that want to grow without adding headcount at the same pace. That means systems designed to handle ten times the volume without ten times the cost.\r\n“The next few years will separate businesses that use AI as a novelty from those that run on it,” added Arihant Chhajer. “We want Algoura to be the partner that helps Indian businesses, and ambitious companies everywhere, make that leap confidently.”\r\nAbout Algoura\r\nAlgoura is a done-for-you AI automation company, operated by Algoura AI Pvt Ltd. It designs, builds and manages AI systems for chatbots, voice agents, lead management, customer support, sales and workflow automation. The company was founded by Arihant Chhajer (Founder &amp;amp; CEO) and Khushi Jain (Co-Founder &amp;amp; COO).

Here Is Where Organic Recycling Systems Limited Stands.","name":"GOBARdhan Just Changed the Rules for India’s Biogas Sector. Here Is Where Organic Recycling Systems Limited Stands.","articleBody":"\r\nNew Delhi [India], September 30: The Union Cabinethas approveda ₹23,731 crore National Circular Bioenergy Scheme and several of the capabilities targeted byGOBARdhanare already part of ORSL’s operating and technology platform.\r\nThe Union Cabinet has approved GOBARdhan, India’s National Unified Scheme for Compressed Biogas, with a total outlay of ₹23,731 crore, to be implemented from FY 2026-27 to FY 2035-36. The scheme aims to increase domestic CBG production nearly ten-fold by providing an integrated framework covering the entire value chain, while establishing CBG as a major component of India’s clean energy mix.\r\nFor Organic Recycling Systems Limited, an integrated CleanTech and decarbonisation platform that has been converting municipal solid waste, agricultural residue, and organic biomass into Compressed Biogas and Fermented Organic Manure for nearly two decades, the approval of GOBARdhan is not a signal to prepare. It is a validation of what the Company has already built.\r\nWhatGOBARdhanMeans for theSector?\r\nGOBARdhan is structured around six growth engines covering assured offtake, pricing, capital support, pipeline connectivity, credit guarantees, and ecosystem development, consolidating the previously fragmented CBG ecosystem under a unified national framework. The scheme establishes a dedicated CBG Offtake Assurance framework, with City Gas Distribution entities procuring CBG to meet blending obligations of 3 per cent in FY 2026-27, 4 per cent in FY 2027-28, and 5 per cent from FY 2028-29 onwards in CNG and PNG segments. A stable administered CBG price of ₹2,110 per MMBTU, backed by a government-supported pricing framework with a minimum ten-year horizon, will provide long-term revenue visibility for producers.\r\nTogether with SATAT and other preceding initiatives, over 200 CBG plants have been commissioned, with GOBARdhan designed to take this progress to national scale.\r\n“TheGOBARdhan2.0 Scheme addresses CBG sector’s two biggest bottlenecks; demand uncertainty and capital access. The mandatory CGD offtake obligations, a stable 10-year administered price, and layered financial support (capital assistance, pipeline funding, and credit guarantees for MSMEs) has created a coherent framework to move CBG projects to investable asset category. The new policy will act like a catalyst in enabling well-structured, secured and performance-focused sectoral development.”\r\n— Sarang Bhand, Promotor and Managing Director, Organic Recycling Systems Limited\r\nWhere ORSLStands\r\nGOBARdhan is creating the policy and commercial conditions for the next phase of CBG growth. ORSL already has technology, project execution, O&amp;amp;M, CBG, organic manure and R&amp;amp;D capabilities that participate in several parts of this value chain.\r\nOn feedstock, GOBARdhan targets agricultural residue, cattle dung, press mud, and municipal organic waste. ORSL is currently targeting Kerela, Madhya Pradesh, Chhattisgarh and Karnataka for its upcoming BOO Agro projects expansion.\r\nOn offtake, GOBARdhan’s assured procurement framework through CGD entities directly strengthens the commercial case for ORSL’s Board-approved ₹1,000 crore Build-Own-Operate Agro Valorisation platform, five integrated CBG projects targeting returns upward of 20 per cent, selectively pursued in states with supportive policy frameworks.\r\nOn organic manure, GOBARdhan includes explicit support for the Fermented Organic Manure value chain, a product ORSL has been producing and selling alongside CBG since 2008, and one that the Company has publicly advocated for through a dedicated thought leadership campaign on FOM market development.\r\nOn technology, GOBARdhan’s ecosystem challenge fund supports technology adoption and process improvement, areas where ORSL’s NABL-accredited ORS Research and Innovation Centre, with 7+ innovations in its pipeline and active research partnerships with IIT Bombay and IIT Kharagpur, is already actively engaged.\r\nPSU Contracts: The Proof in Practice\r\nThis operational readiness is already translating into contract wins. Solapur Bioenergy Systems Private Limited (SBESPL), a wholly owned subsidiary of ORSL, has secured three Engineering, Procurement, Construction, Operation and Maintenance (EPCOM) contracts from Bharat Petroleum Corporation Limited (BPCL) for CBG plants across Mysuru, Raipur and Kerala. Together, these projects represent a contract value in the range of ₹250–₹275 crore.\r\nIn addition, SBESPL’s O&amp;amp;M contract with Indian Oil Corporation Limited for the Gorakhpur paddy straw-based CBG plant in Uttar Pradesh was renewed for a second consecutive term in August 2026, reflecting sustained operational performance during the preceding contract period. These engagements with two of India’s largest PSU oil marketing companies, across multiple states and project types, are the clearest available measure of ORSL’s standing in the sector.\r\n“GOBARdhanis the policy framework that India’s CBG sector has needed for years. It addresses the entire value chain — offtake, pricing, capital, infrastructure, and manure,rather than just one part of it. For a company like ORSL that has been operating across this value chain since 2008,the policy is now finally complementing what the technology and the operations have long been capable of delivering.“\r\n— Pankaj Tanwar, CEO – Bioenergy, Organic Recycling Systems Limited\r\nOn its way to growth, the Company is committed to transitioning to the BSE Main Board by October 2026.

The client signs off, we raise the final bill, we demobilise, and the site becomes somebody else’s responsibility. Last year, at an approximately 9 MW plant at Phalodi in Jodhpur district, we finished the commissioning tests and then did none of that. We kept the keys. There was no final invoice to raise, because the plant is ours and the discom will pay us for its electricity, unit by unit, for the next twenty-five years.\r\nThat is a strange feeling for a contractor. It is also, I think, where a certain kind of Indian infrastructure company is heading, and it is worth being honest about why.\r\nThe push came from the discoms, not from us. Under PM-KUSUM’s feeder solarisation route a state utility can get daytime solar power for its agricultural feeders without spending a rupee of capital – it signs a power purchase agreement and someone else builds, funds and runs the plant. For a discom still working its aggregate technical and commercial losses down, that is an easy decision. National AT&amp;amp;C losses have fallen to 16.16% in FY25 from 22.32% four years earlier, and the utilities that got there did it by being careful with their balance sheets. So the capital requirement moved. It moved to us.\r\nWe took it because we could see what it does to the shape of our business. An EPC company lives tender to tender. You win, you execute, you look for the next one, and in a bad quarter there is nothing underneath you. Four plants – three at Phalodi under PM-KUSUM and one at IIT (ISM) Dhanbad under a SECI award, approximately 11 MW in all – give us a little over ₹ 6 Cr a year that arrives whether or not we win anything. Each sits in its own subsidiary, so the asset can be seen for what it is and not lost inside a contractor’s books. Against an order book of about ₹ 350 Cr, that ₹ 6 Cr is small. It is also the only part of our revenue that nobody can outbid us for.\r\nAnd the opportunity does not stop with solar. Apart from PM-KUSUM, we are also bidding for new Battery Energy Storage System (BESS) tenders under the Capex model. The framework is similar to PM-KUSUM: each BESS plant is developed at our own cost and backed by a long-term Power Purchase Agreement (PPA) with the discom. That gives us another route to build owned infrastructure around a contracted, predictable revenue stream and creates the potential for stable returns over the life of the asset.\r\nThe second reason is that the two halves feed each other. The same crews, the same machinery and the same NABL-accredited testing lab that serve our discom contracts – close to ₹ 100 Cr of feeder segregation and household electrification work for the Jaipur and Jodhpur utilities under the Revamped Distribution Sector Scheme – also maintain our plants. A developer who has no presence in the district has to send a team. We already have one there.\r\nNow the part I am less comfortable with. This model consumes capital in a way EPC does not. A RESCO plant pays back in about six years before financing cost, and eight to nine years after it. Our EPC contracts turn cash in roughly ninety days. Any company that lets the asset side run ahead of the contracting side will find it has swapped a lumpy business for an illiquid one, and there is no clause anywhere that lets you reprice a twenty-five-year tariff when inverters need replacing in year twelve. That is why we have said publicly that we will add one or two more plants over the next one to two years, and not a dozen. EPC remains the primary business. The plants are ballast, not the ship.\r\nI would say the same to the discoms. The RESCO model works because a contractor is willing to carry risk the utility does not want. That willingness is finite, and it depends on tariffs that leave something behind after twenty-five years of operating cost, and on payment that arrives when it is due. Push the ceiling tariff too low in the bidding and the serious builders will stop turning up, which is not what a country adding 55.3 GW of non-fossil capacity in a single year needs.\r\nThere is a picture I keep coming back to from that morning at Phalodi. Two of our engineers were walking the rows with a meter, not because a client had asked them to, but because the reading was now our revenue. Nobody had to supervise them. That is the whole argument for owning what you build, and it took me several years to see it.\r\n","articleSection":"Business","datePublished":"2026-09-30T16:16:26+0530","dateModified":"2026-09-30T16:17:07+0530","inLanguage":"en-us","author":{"@type":"Person","name":"PNN","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com/user/pnnindia"},"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Marudhara Bharti English","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com/uploads/logo/logo_6ab9270c36c334-01124948.png"}},"image":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://pnndigital.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/09/Untitled-design-15.jpg","contentUrl":"https://pnndigital.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/09/Untitled-design-15.jpg"},"keywords":["From","Projects","Assets:","The","Next","Phase","Growth"]}</script>

Dependence on a single chip vendor. Dependence on foreign cloud infrastructure. Dependence on systems that quietly own the intelligence running inside a nation’s hospitals, police networks and factories.\r\nBlue Cloud Softech Solutions Limited (BSE: 539607, NSE: BLUECLOUDS) is changing that equation today. The Company announced the launch of BluEdge, its own sovereign inference software, developed by Blue Cloud and designed to improve the performance and cost efficiency of AI on CPU and GPU hardware while keeping control with the customer.\r\nUnlike edge-AI platforms tied to proprietary silicon, BluEdge is designed to run across a wide range of CPU and GPU platforms, including hardware an organisation already owns, in the country where its data already lives. Benchmark results will be shared as they become available.\r\n“Enterprises and governments we speak with keep asking the same question: why should our intelligence depend on someone else’s hardware, someone else’s cloud, someone else’s rules? BluEdge is Blue Cloud’s answer. It is India-born, patent-pending technology that aims to put sovereignty, performance and cost efficiency back in the hands of the organisations that need it most.”\r\n— Tejesh Kumar Kodali, Group Chairman, Blue Cloud Softech Solutions Limited\r\nOne Platform. Many Chips. Customer-Defined Control.\r\nBluEdge is the execution layer of AccessGenie 5.0, Blue Cloud’s evolution from an AI platform into a full Physical Intelligence Infrastructure. It is already deployed and operating in live customer environments in India, where early implementations have shown it working under real-world conditions. The customers have asked not to be named.\r\nBluEdge forms the technical foundation of the Company’s broader Sovereign AI strategy. The technology is patent pending. Blue Cloud Softech Solutions Limited is the applicant, with Tejesh Kumar Kodali and Cherisha Putla named as inventors.\r\nIn line with Blue Cloud’s India-first philosophy, the first deployments and performance benchmarks are being run domestically before the technology is extended overseas.\r\nWhat Makes BluEdge Different\r\nRunning on many kinds of chips is only the starting point. What distinguishes BluEdge is control over how AI runs: the customer’s own policy governs where each AI workload is executed, and the boundaries it must stay within are enforced in software, rather than left to the hardware or the cloud provider.\r\nFor governments and regulated industries, data-residency and security rules become part of how the AI operates, not something added afterwards. The specific techniques are the subject of the Company’s pending patent.\r\nWhy It Matters for Blue Cloud\r\nBluEdge is not a side project. It is designed to be the intelligence layer beneath Blue Cloud’s portfolio, from AccessGenie deployments with law enforcement, to BluHealth screening platforms, to Seeker surveillance systems already running at major Indian infrastructure sites.\r\nBy owning the execution layer itself, Blue Cloud turns every future deployment into a demonstration of its own proprietary technology.\r\n","articleSection":"Business","datePublished":"2026-09-30T14:46:18+0530","dateModified":"2026-09-30T16:17:33+0530","inLanguage":"en-us","author":{"@type":"Person","name":"PNN","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com/user/pnnindia"},"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Marudhara Bharti English","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com/uploads/logo/logo_6ab9270c36c334-01124948.png"}},"image":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://pnndigital.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/09/PNN-2026-09-30T102303.724.jpg","contentUrl":"https://pnndigital.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/09/PNN-2026-09-30T102303.724.jpg"},"keywords":["Blue Cloud","BluEdge","A Sovereign AI Engine","Hardware You Already Own"]}</script>

It is the first place you learn to dream, the place you return to after a long day, and the space where some of life’s most important moments quietly happen. It is where a new family begins, where children grow up, where festivals are celebrated, where old stories are told, and new ones are made. And when we build a home, we want every part of it to last. We choose the colours, the furniture, the finishes, and every little detail with the hope that they will remain a part of our lives for years to come. For 70 years, Duroply has had the privilege of being part of that journey.\r\nSince 1957, generations of Indians have trusted Duroply to be part of the homes they build and the spaces they create. What began as a journey in plywood has grown over seven decades into a wider range of wood solutions, evolving alongside the way India lives, builds and designs. Homes today look very different from the homes of the past. Spaces have become more personalised, furniture has become more design-led, and consumers expect more from the materials they bring into their homes. Through these changes, Duroply has continued to innovate and expand its range with plywood, specialised plywood, doors, decorative veneers and engineered wood solutions designed for different needs and applications.\r\nBut while products have evolved, the reason people choose them remains deeply personal. When you invest in your home, you want to know that what you choose today will continue to serve you tomorrow. You want your furniture to withstand everyday life, your spaces to remain dependable and the choices you make during construction to give you confidence long after the work is complete. That is where experience matters. Seven decades of understanding wood, manufacturing and changing consumer needs have helped Duroply build a legacy that goes beyond products. It has built a relationship of trust with generations of consumers.\r\nThis is what 70 Saal Ka Bharosa represents. It is not simply about the number of years Duroply has been around. It is about the countless homes, rooms, kitchens, wardrobes and pieces of furniture that have been built with the confidence of choosing a brand with decades of experience behind it. It is about a trust that has grown from one generation to another. The home your parents built with confidence, the home you are building today and perhaps the home your children will build tomorrow are all part of a much bigger story.\r\nFor Duroply, that trust also comes with the responsibility to stand behind what it makes. The brand’s Lifetime Guarantee on select plywood products reflects its confidence in their durability and performance. It gives consumers an assurance that their choice is backed by a commitment that goes beyond the point of purchase. The 3X Money Back promise takes that confidence a step further, offering an additional assurance to consumers and putting Duroply’s belief in its products firmly behind the choices they make for their homes.\r\nBecause building a home is one of the most personal investments we make. It is not just about creating a beautiful space for today. It is about creating a space that can grow with us, adapt to our lives and hold everything that comes with them. The materials we choose become part of that story, often in ways we do not see every day but rely on every day. That makes trust an important part of the decision.\r\nFor seven decades, Duroply has worked to earn that trust by combining experience with innovation and dependable quality. As homes continue to change and the expectations of consumers continue to grow, the brand remains committed to creating wood solutions that are made for the way people live today and the lives they will build tomorrow.\r\nBecause trends may change. Designs may change. Homes may change. But the desire to build something that lasts never does.\r\n70 Saal Ka Bharosa. Lifetime Guarantee. 3X Money Back.\r\nDuroply. Built on 70 years of trust.\r\nIf you object to the content of this press release, please notify us at pr.error.rectification@gmail.com.

According to NITI Aayog’s Enhancing Circular Economy of End-of-Life Vehicles (ELVs) in India, the country had approximately 10 million ELVs in circulation in 2020. That number is expected to reach nearly 23 million by the end of 2025 and close to 50 million by 2030. NITI Aayog has highlighted the growing ELV volume as an urgent need for stronger systems for sustainable management, while also identifying resource recovery and reduced dependence on virgin materials as significant opportunities.\r\nAgainst this rapidly growing challenge, Meta Materials Circular Markets (MMCM) has helped address this gap through CM-WM-ELV-01 : Recovery and Recycling of Materials from End-of-Life Vehicles, a methodology approved under the Cercarbono certification programme.\r\nThe methodology provides a framework to quantify the greenhouse-gas emission reductions associated with recovering and recycling materials from ELVs and reducing the need for equivalent virgin material production.\r\nIn doing so, it takes vehicle scrapping beyond waste management and into the carbon market.\r\nA Global First for ELV Carbon Accounting\r\nThe significance of the methodology lies in its focus: ELV material recovery and recycling as a dedicated carbon-crediting activity.\r\nInstead of looking at a scrapped vehicle simply as waste, the methodology recognises the climate value of recovering materials such as metals, plastics and other components and returning them to productive use.\r\nThis creates a direct link between the physical circular economy and carbon finance:\r\nFor a sector facing a rapidly increasing material stream, this represents a new way to mobilise climate finance towards formal vehicle recycling infrastructure.\r\n\r\nWhat Sets the MMCM Approach Apart?\r\nThe methodology is designed to connect real-world material recovery with measurable climate outcomes, while creating a pathway for the growing ELV carbon recycling sector to access carbon finance.\r\n\r\nConnecting circularity with carbon financeThe methodology creates a direct link between the recovery and recycling of materials from ELVs and the carbon market. By reducing the need for equivalent virgin material production, the recycling of eligible materials can generate measurable emissions reductions that can be quantified as carbon credits.\r\nCarbon value linked to actual material recoveryThe approach does not treat the number of vehicles scrapped as the carbon benefit in itself. Instead, it focuses on the recovery and recycling of materials and the associated emissions reductions. This creates a stronger connection between physical recycling activity and the climate impact being quantified.\r\nDesigned for transparency and verificationThe methodology incorporates defined monitoring and documentation requirements, with project-level outcomes subject to validation and verification. This supports the development of transparent and auditable carbon assets and aligns the methodology with the growing market emphasis on carbon-credit integrity.\r\nPositioned within an evolving high-integrity carbon marketThe integrity of carbon markets is becoming increasingly important to buyers and market participants. In August 2026, Cercarbono was approved as CCP-Eligible by the Integrity Council for the Voluntary Carbon Market (ICVCM), following assessment of its governance, tracking, transparency and independent third-party verification systems. Cercarbono subsequently announced that CM-WM-ELV-01 is among five Cercarbono methodologies being submitted for the ICVCM’s methodology assessment process.\r\n\r\nTurning India’s ELV Challenge into a Climate Opportunity\r\nThe scale of India’s ELV challenge makes the need for formal, sustainable recycling infrastructure increasingly important. According to the Ministry of Road Transport and Highways (MoRTH), as reported by the Press Information Bureau (PIB), as of 30 January 2026, 129 Registered Vehicle Scrapping Facilities (RVSFs) were operational across 21 States and Union Territories, having collectively scrapped approximately 0.43 million vehicles. As India continues to build out its formal vehicle-scrapping ecosystem, creating viable economic incentives for environmentally sound recovery and recycling will be critical.\r\nMMCM’s ELV carbon methodology provides a mechanism through which this growing formal recycling ecosystem can potentially access an additional source of climate finance, linking material recovery with measurable emissions reductions.\r\nThe ambition is straightforward: as more vehicles reach the end of their useful lives, more of their materials can be recovered, recycled and returned to the economy, while the associated climate benefits can be measured and recognised through the carbon market.\r\nThe result is a new proposition for the circular economy: a scrapped vehicle does not have to mark the end of its value. Its materials can begin a new lifecycle, while their recovery can contribute to measurable climate action and generate potential carbon-market value.\r\n\r\n","articleSection":"Business","datePublished":"2026-09-30T14:46:18+0530","dateModified":"2026-09-30T16:19:58+0530","inLanguage":"en-us","author":{"@type":"Person","name":"PNN","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com/user/pnnindia"},"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Marudhara Bharti English","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com/uploads/logo/logo_6ab9270c36c334-01124948.png"}},"image":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://pnndigital.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/09/PNN-2026-09-29T150429.816-1024x576-1.jpg","contentUrl":"https://pnndigital.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/09/PNN-2026-09-29T150429.816-1024x576-1.jpg"},"keywords":["MMCM’s Cercarbono","Methodology","Scrapped Vehicles","Carbon Credits"]}</script>

Cash Ur Drive Marketing Limited (CUDML or CASHurDRIVE) now holds commercial advertising and media rights across these four asset classes, without owning the underlying infrastructure. During FY26, the Company secured a ten-year municipal EV-charging concession, a Punjab state bus agreement and a regional transit mandate.\r\nThe backdrop is a medium that has quietly stopped being static. India’s out-of-home (OOH) segment grew 13% in 2025, and digital out-of-home (DOOH) now accounts for 18% of segment revenue against 7% in 2023, according to the FICCI-EY media and entertainment report published in March 2026. The report expects out-of-home to reach ₹ 85 billion by 2028, with digital formats at roughly a quarter of it.\r\nThe gap, by management’s account, is that the company is not bidding for the same sites. A hoarding has been a hoarding for thirty years and is fought over accordingly; an electric bus depot commissioned last quarter has never carried advertising at all. CASHurDRIVE describes itself as a concept house that monetises new-age infrastructure: it bids for media rights from state transport undertakings, municipal corporations and charge point operators on tenures of three to ten years, then designs the format, installs it and measures the audience. “We do not buy buses, build charging stations or lay metro lines. The transport undertaking funds the bus. The charging operator funds the hardware. The municipality funds the shelter. We fund only the media layer that sits on top of them,”said Mr. Raghu Khanna, Chairman &amp;amp; Managing Director.\r\nThe estate reflects that. Owned media runs across more than 25 cities and covers advertising rights over 1,900-plus buses, roughly 500 EV charging stations in six cities, 19 battery swapping stations in Chandigarh, 95-plus digital screens, over 350 public bicycle shelters, and a Delhi and Chandigarh static portfolio of 716 units. Transit media contributed 44.84% of FY26 revenue and outdoor and urban infrastructure media 49.19%. Seventeen years in, more than 2,000 clients have used the network, about a hundred active during FY26.\r\nThe shift that matters commercially is from reselling inventory to holding it. Revenue from owned media rose from ₹ 26.50 Cr in FY25 to ₹ 59.07 Cr in FY26, against ₹ 2.4 Cr as recently as FY23, and now makes up about a third of the total. Most of the year’s activity pushed that way. The company won a ten-year design, build, finance, operate and maintain concession from Nagar Nigam Rishikesh covering ten EV charging stations with advertising rights, secured a Letter of Award for Pune city bus advertising, signed an exclusive agreement with Punbus covering more than 1,200 state buses, and acquired 50% of charging operator CharjKaro Greentech Mobility and about 19.06% of Kolkata Call Taxi.\r\nPublic policy is supplying much of the new inventory. The Centre’s PM E-DRIVE scheme, a ₹ 10,900 crore programme now running to 2027-28, supports 14,028 electric buses across nine cities and carries ₹ 2,000 crore for public charging infrastructure, according to the Ministry of Heavy Industries. India had 29,151 public charging stations at December 2025, close to six times the 2022 count, on ministry data cited in a Rubix Data Sciences report. Charging bays hold a driver for twenty to forty minutes, longer than any roadside format manages.\r\nThe annual report filed this month showed Revenue from Operations of ₹ 186.67 Cr and Profit After Tax of ₹ 29.40 Cr for FY26 on a Standalone basis, up 33.98% and 64.93% respectively. Fixed assets stood at ₹ 8.20 Cr against total income of ₹ 192.38 Cr. The company listed on NSE Emerge in August 2025 and had deployed ₹ 49.26 Cr of the ₹ 58.10 Cr fresh issue as of 30 June 2026.\r\nThe build is not finished, and the report does not pretend otherwise. Utilisation of owned inventory ran at about 45% in FY26 against an industry norm the company puts nearer 65%, roughly 73% of revenue still comes from Delhi, Uttar Pradesh and Haryana, and operating cash flow stayed negative as some ₹ 20 Cr went into advances to concessionaires for long-duration rights. Stated plans include lifting utilisation towards 60%, adding around 350 charging stations in Delhi NCR, and moving into South India, more Tier-II and Tier-III cities, and formats it does not yet hold: metros, trains, airports and railway stations. Those are intentions, and the report offers no forecast.\r\n“A person leaves home at eight in the morning and gets back at ten at night. In between there is a bus, a shelter, a cab, a charging bay, a metro platform, a hoarding at the crossing. Our ambition is to be present, usefully, across the whole of that journey.”– Mr. Raghu Khanna, Chairman &amp;amp; Managing Director, Cash Ur Drive Marketing Limited\r\n","articleSection":"Business","datePublished":"2026-09-30T14:46:18+0530","dateModified":"2026-09-30T16:20:53+0530","inLanguage":"en-us","author":{"@type":"Person","name":"PNN","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com/user/pnnindia"},"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Marudhara Bharti English","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com/uploads/logo/logo_6ab9270c36c334-01124948.png"}},"image":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://pnndigital.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/09/Untitled-design-16.jpg","contentUrl":"https://pnndigital.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/09/Untitled-design-16.jpg"},"keywords":["Cash Ur Drive","advertising layer","India’s new transit infrastructure"]}</script>

It opens with a man in his room, fondly petting a macaw until he is startled as the bird transforms into Kartik Aaryan’s larger-than-life Macaw Genie. One wish at a time, the Genie grants the man’s vision for his home in the most colourful way possible, culminating in a striking before-and-after transformation that captures exactly what Macaw Paints stands for: turning imagination into reality, one wish at a time.\r\nKartik Aaryan as the Macaw Genie is playful, larger-than-life and unmistakably magical. His comic timing and infectious energy give the film its irresistible festive spirit, while the transformation sequence itself becomes the hero: walls that once felt tired and forgotten burst into vibrant, expressive, celebration-ready spaces. It reminds us that a home doesn’t need a miracle to feel magical this Puja; it needs Macaw.\r\n10,000+ Magical Shades, One Wish at a Time!\r\nAt the heart of the campaign lies Macaw Paints’ extraordinary palette of over 10,000+ magical shades- a spectrum vast enough to grant literally any colour wish a homeowner could dream up. From bold festive statement walls to soft, celebratory pastels, the brand’s shade universe ensures that no matter what a consumer imagines, there’s a Macaw shade ready to make it real. The TVC’s central metaphor, the Genie granting wishes, is a direct and delightful expression of this promise, with 10,000+ shades on tap, every wish for a more beautiful home can come true.\r\nCommenting on the campaign, Kartik Aaryan said, “Macaw Paints has a very fun and imaginative way of looking at colours, and I really enjoyed taking that idea forward through this film. The thought of turning someone’s vision for their homeinto reality with a little bit of magic makes the story very relatable, especially during the festive season when everyone wants their home to feel special. I think ‘Macaw ke rang, magic ke sang’ captures that feeling beautifully.”\r\nThe magic doesn’t stop when the TVC ends. As Durga Puja and Diwali approach, the season when homes traditionally become the centre of celebration, renewal and togetherness, Macaw Paints is scaling ‘Macaw ke rang, magic ke sang’ into a full-fledged 360-degree festive campaign. The brand’s world of colour and wish-fulfilment will come alive across digital and social platforms, on-ground activations and other key consumer touchpoints, ensuring the Genie’s magic reaches homes and hearts well beyond the screen.\r\nTimed to roll out through the Puja season, the campaign will invite consumers to make their own festive home wishes, turning Macaw Paints’ promise of colour, excitement and imagination into a shared, city-wide celebration.\r\nMrs. Megha Beriwala Gupta, Marketing Director, Macaw Paints and Shyam Steel Group, said, “Festivals are a time when people naturally look at their homes differently; they refresh, decorate and create spaces that feel more welcoming and celebratory. With Macaw Paints, we wanted to capture that emotional side of home transformation while keeping the communication light, engaging and memorable. The new TVC brings this thought alive through Kartik’s character as Macaw Genie, and the larger Durga Puja campaign will take this experience to consumers across multiple touchpoints.”\r\nThe association with Kartik Aaryan began in 2025, when he was announced as Macaw Paints’ brand ambassador. This second TVC deepens that partnership, using his star power and playful persona to sharpen Macaw Paints’ distinctive identity within the decorative paints category and strengthen its connection with younger, aspirational consumers who see their homes as an extension of their personality.\r\nWith the Genie now firmly part of its festive storytelling, Macaw Paints is set to make this Durga Puja season one where every home’s colour wish can finally come true.\r\nAbout Macaw Paints\r\nMacaw Paints, a part of the Shyam Steel Group’s presence in the building and construction solutions space, offers a portfolio of paints and coatings across four key categories: interior emulsions, exterior emulsions, wood and metal coatings, and industrial paints. Its product range includes luxury, premium, economy and designer offerings, along with primers, enamels, wall putties, damp-proofing solutions, roof and wall protection products, and specialised industrial coatings.

Tables are set to specification. Briefings are conducted before every session. Complaints are rehearsed, not avoided. The room looks like a working restaurant because, operationally, it functions like one.\r\nThis is Adevo Academy, and the deliberateness of what happens inside it is precisely the point.\r\nA Sector That Trained by Accident\r\nIndia’s hospitality industry employs an estimated 40 million people and is growing at a pace few sectors can match. The food service market alone crossed $56 billion in 2025, with projections pointing well past $130 billion by 2034. New hotels are opening across Tier 2 and Tier 3 cities at a rate that would have seemed ambitious five years ago. The numbers are, by any measure, impressive.\r\nWhat has not kept pace is the training infrastructure behind them.\r\nAnnual attrition in India’s restaurant sector runs between 30 and 60 percent depending on the segment. A significant proportion of hospitality workers are trained informally through observation, imitation, and on-the-job trial-and-error rather than through any structured programme. The gap between the experience a hotel or restaurant promises its guests and the preparation its staff actually receives is, in most cases, substantial.\r\nAdevo Academywas founded in January 2021 specifically to close that gap. The firm’s three co-founders Brendon Pereira, Krishna Shantakumar, and Rashmi Koppar arrived at the same problem through different routes, and built something that reflects all three perspectives simultaneously.\r\nThree Careers, One Diagnosis\r\nPereira spent three decades moving between hotel F&amp;amp;B management, corporate finance, and strategic consulting, from F&amp;amp;B Manager at Le Meridien and TGI Fridays to CFO of an NSE-listed company. He holds an MBA from SPJIMR and completed an MDP in Mergers and Acquisitions at IIM Ahmedabad.\r\nShantakumar spent 30 years on the other side of the business, building restaurants that became institutions in Bangalore’s dining landscape. The 13th Floor, ASEAN On The Edge, and Ebony properties defined a certain era of the city’s F&amp;amp;B culture. He is also a published food writer with work in leading Indian newspapers and journals.\r\nKoppar brings a third dimension: 27 years spanning luxury hotel operations at Taj and Oberoi, followed by an extended academic career at Ramaiah University of Applied Sciences, where she rose to Deputy Registrar and Academic Registrar while designing hospitality curricula at the institutional level.\r\nThe consensus among the three, when they founded Adevo, was that India’s hospitality training problem was neither a talent problem nor a willingness problem. It was a systems problem. The sector had been training by instinct for decades. What it needed was a firm that could build the systems and train to them.\r\nWhat the Model Actually Looks Like\r\nAdevo operates across four channels. The physical academy in Bengaluru with its training restaurant and housekeeping laboratory, handles in-person, hands-on training for individual learners and corporate cohorts. On-site delivery takes the same programmes directly to client premises across India. A live LMS platform at lms.adevo.in hosts more than 100 modular courses across F&amp;amp;B service, kitchen operations, food safety, housekeeping, and leadership available in English and Indian regional languages. And for larger organisations, Adevo offers full-cycle L&amp;amp;D outsourcing: taking over the entire learning and development function so clients do not have to build or maintain one in-house.\r\nThe client list that has gathered around this model is striking for a bootstrapped, four-year-old firm. The Phoenix Mills Limited. General Mills India, for whom Adevo built an upskilling programme covering 6,000 bakeries across India, trained 64 chefs under a Train the Trainer format, and produced seven content modules spanning sales, sanitation, and inventory management. Kempegowda International Airport, Bengaluru. JSW Foundation, where Adevo runs a community hospitality training academy in Toranagallu for rural youth in Bellary district. And a long roster of Bangalore’s most recognised restaurant and bar brands.\r\nThe outcomes, where measurable, are specific. Kling Brewery and Kitchen, one of Adevo’s F&amp;amp;B clients, now consistently maintains a 4.8-plus rating on Google following structured service training, a concrete, public, trackable metric in a sector where training investments almost never produce numbers you can point to.\r\nWhat It Points Toward\r\nIndia’s hospitality sector is at an inflection point. The infrastructure is being built. The demand is real. The workforce challenges chronic attrition, inconsistent training, an undertrained supervisor layer, and a geographic expansion into Tier 2 and Tier 3 markets that outpaces skill development is also real, and growing.\r\nAdevois not the only company addressing it. But it may be the only one doing so with a founding team that has actually run the operations it is now training people for.\r\nThat distinction, practitioner-built, not consultant-designed is what the training room on International Airport Road is quietly trying to prove, one briefing at a time.","articleSection":"Business","datePublished":"2026-09-30T14:46:12+0530","dateModified":"2026-09-30T14:49:26+0530","inLanguage":"en-us","author":{"@type":"Person","name":"Correspondent Desk","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com/user/marudharabharti"},"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Marudhara Bharti English","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com/uploads/logo/logo_6ab9270c36c334-01124948.png"}},"image":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEhh936l34HhZpngHr6EUaaikMyGnsw44W6U9KQCZBWJWwpUEXxsDXK-0bBjgKIPD5olhj7YyzITM6g2wJ1l4BXfw9U0-GHuQaDp-WLMHrm0eU6BHXbRFPD2k1lOtPCOWpzEfVsbrKGDok62KbHGgP3ep1-WQHTdN6SS1WdmOMo-7mpj8M1DcqwwkUJv9lmp=w1600","contentUrl":"https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEhh936l34HhZpngHr6EUaaikMyGnsw44W6U9KQCZBWJWwpUEXxsDXK-0bBjgKIPD5olhj7YyzITM6g2wJ1l4BXfw9U0-GHuQaDp-WLMHrm0eU6BHXbRFPD2k1lOtPCOWpzEfVsbrKGDok62KbHGgP3ep1-WQHTdN6SS1WdmOMo-7mpj8M1DcqwwkUJv9lmp=w1600"},"keywords":["Inside","Adevo","Academy:","The","Bengaluru","Firm","Training","Hotel","and","Restaurant","Staff","the","Way","Indias","Hospitality","Sector","Should","Have","Been","Doing","All","Along"]}</script>

But the students who consistently perform well aren’t always the ones who study the longest – they’re the ones who prepare with intention. And increasingly, “preparing” means more than just knowing the material. As exams move online, being ready also means being comfortable with how that knowledge will be tested.\r\nThe Problem With “More Hours”\r\nIt’s tempting to believe that doubling your study time will double your results. In reality, the brain has limited capacity for focused attention. Focused attention declines during prolonged, unstructured study, making additional hours less productive.\r\nThe smarter approach isn’t about cutting corners. It’s about replacing low-value habits with ones that build durable understanding – and about not letting the exam format itself become a source of avoidable stress.\r\n1. Practice Retrieval, Not Just Review\r\nOne of the most well-established findings in learning science is that actively recalling information strengthens memory far more than passively rereading notes. Instead of skimming a chapter again, students benefit more from closing the book and trying to answer questions on the material.\r\nRegular practice tests do more than check what you know – they reveal exactly what you don’t, which is often the more useful discovery. A student who works through timed practice questions after each topic gets immediate, honest feedback on where their understanding is shaky, well before it counts.\r\n2. Space Out Your Study Sessions\r\nCramming creates an illusion of mastery. Information feels fresh right after a late-night session, but it fades quickly because it was never given time to consolidate. Spaced repetition – reviewing material at increasing intervals over days and weeks – leads to far stronger long-term retention than a single marathon session.\r\nResearch has consistently found that spaced learning tends to produce stronger long-term retention than concentrated cramming, even when total study time is comparable.\r\n3. Rehearse the Exam Itself, Not Just the Content\r\nKnowing the material is one part of preparation. Being comfortable with the format in which you will have to demonstrate that knowledge is another. As more assessments move to digital and remotely supervised formats, students also need to practise the conditions under which they will actually be tested. A student who is comfortable solving questions on paper may still lose time adjusting to a countdown timer, on-screen navigation, identity checks or a monitored environment.\r\nNone of this is difficult once you know what to expect. But it can be genuinely unsettling the first time someone encounters it – a student who has only ever taken exams with pen, paper, and open notes can find a monitored digital test disorienting, even when they know the subject well. Treating this as part of preparation, not an afterthought, removes a variable that has nothing to do with knowledge and everything to do with unfamiliarity. That might mean simply taking one full practice test under real conditions: same device, same quiet room, no phone nearby, camera on, full attention on the screen for the entire duration.\r\n4. Handle the Logistics Before Exam Day, Not During It\r\nOnline exams come with their own checklist, separate from the syllabus: a stable internet connection, a functioning webcam and microphone, valid identification ready to show, and the test window opened and tested ahead of time. Technical hiccups are rarely about knowledge, but they can cost real time and composure if they surface for the first time during the actual test.\r\nStudents preparing smarter run through this setup at least once beforehand – checking their connection, confirming their device meets requirements, and understanding what the identity verification and browser lockdown will look and feel like. It’s a small investment that means, on the day itself, all the mental energy goes toward the questions rather than toward troubleshooting.\r\n5. Use Data to Study What Matters\r\nNot all topics deserve equal attention. Some carry more marks, some appear more frequently, and some are simply weaker areas for a given student. Preparing smarter means identifying these priorities early rather than working through material in the order it appears in a textbook.\r\nTracking performance across practice attempts – which topics consistently trip you up, which question types take the longest, where careless errors happen – turns preparation into a targeted process. When detailed results and reports are available soon after a practice test, this review can happen while the material is still fresh, which makes the lessons stick far better than revisiting them days later.\r\n6. Build in Rest and Recovery\r\nSleep, breaks, and downtime aren’t the opposite of productive studying – they’re part of it. Sleep plays an important role in memory consolidation, while breaks can help sustain attention during extended study periods. Students who protect their sleep and build short breaks into long study sessions tend to retain more per hour studied than those who push through fatigue, and they also tend to walk into a monitored exam calmer, which matters even more in a timed digital exam, where fatigue can affect concentration, reading speed and decision-making\r\n7. Review Mistakes, Not Just Scores\r\nA test score is a summary, not a lesson. The real learning happens when a student goes back through incorrect answers and asks why they got them wrong – a knowledge gap, a misread question, a careless slip, or a timing issue caused by the format itself. Each of these has a different fix. Treating every practice attempt as a diagnostic tool, rather than just a grade, is what turns repeated testing into steady improvement.\r\n8. Use AI as a Tutor, Not an Answer Machine\r\nThe important media angle is the distinction between AI-assisted learning and AI-dependent learning. A Mumbai study, for example, found widespread awareness of AI among Class IX students but also concerns that students were using it to obtain quick answers rather than develop independent problem-solving skills. \r\nThe Bigger Shift\r\nPreparing smarter isn’t a single trick – it’s a shift from “how much time can I put in” to “how effectively am I using the time I have,” and from focusing only on content to also getting comfortable with the format the exam will take. Regular low-stakes practice, spaced learning, familiarity with a secure digital test environment, and honest review of mistakes all compound over weeks and months.\r\nStudents who prepare this way tend to need less last-minute cramming, feel steadier when the camera turns on and the timer starts, and perform more consistently – not because they worked harder, but because nothing about exam day caught them by surprise.\r\n ","articleSection":"Education","datePublished":"2026-09-30T14:46:11+0530","dateModified":"2026-09-30T14:50:58+0530","inLanguage":"en-us","author":{"@type":"Person","name":"Correspondent Desk","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com/user/marudharabharti"},"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Marudhara Bharti English","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com/uploads/logo/logo_6ab9270c36c334-01124948.png"}},"image":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEh6nnsb7HYY8BgxIm_l6mDot1dzsyYvurTkYgSXrXgtdw1g9Ya1Ja8hTifmT7D5Z6gEqJWqqDhgDSpMNNN9K467OAIosmzbviqHWTr8j4Hze-d38qodaNTwAbisaxGA6TglgxSuy21y6-pvG5x6Ap9Kok-js4BLvPEbwMUOYmyMgCNDGqkPtXVW8Pm9FB_W=w1600","contentUrl":"https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEh6nnsb7HYY8BgxIm_l6mDot1dzsyYvurTkYgSXrXgtdw1g9Ya1Ja8hTifmT7D5Z6gEqJWqqDhgDSpMNNN9K467OAIosmzbviqHWTr8j4Hze-d38qodaNTwAbisaxGA6TglgxSuy21y6-pvG5x6Ap9Kok-js4BLvPEbwMUOYmyMgCNDGqkPtXVW8Pm9FB_W=w1600"},"keywords":["ExamOnline","CEO","Maneesh","Singh","How","Students","Can","Prepare","Smarter","","Not","Longer"]}</script>

So when Abhee City Urban Glenn arrived with a Scotland theme, a golf range, and 45 acres of land, some scepticism was natural. If you are searching for Abhee City Urban Glenn reviews before booking, here is an honest look.\r\nWhat is Abhee City, Urban Glenn?\r\nAbhee City Urban Glenn is a large township by Abhee Ventures on SH-35, the Varthur–Sarjapur Road, right behind Greenwood High in Chikkavaderapura. It was pre-launched as Abhee Codename New Dimension, so don’t be confused when brokers send different brochures. The latest brochure and floor plans are on the official Abhee City Urban Glenn project page.\r\nThe master plan covers about 45 acres, with 14 towers and roughly 3,000 homes. Only Phase I is RERA registered for now: three towers and 566 apartments in 2, 2.5, 3, 3.5 and 4.5 BHK. The RERA number is PRM/KA/RERA/1251/308/PR/250826/008887, with completion on record as 31 December 2033.\r\nAbout the Builder: Abhee Ventures\r\nAbhee Ventures has been building in Bangalore since 2009, mostly in the Sarjapur, Gunjur and Varthur belt. Its nearby projects include Abhee Aaria in Gunjur and Abhee Celestial City on Sarjapur Road.\r\nAbhee is a mid-sized developer, not a Prestige or a Sobha, and Urban Glenn is by far its largest project. Visiting a delivered Abhee project will tell you more than any brochure.\r\nAbhee City Urban Glenn Price\r\nBased on current listings, the Abhee City Urban Glenn price is roughly ₹11,000 to ₹11,600 per sq.ft, up from pre-launch offers of about ₹9,600.\r\nThat puts a 2 BHK of about 1,180 sq.ft at ₹1.3 to 1.4 crore, a 2.5 BHK at ₹1.6 to 1.7 crore, 3 BHK homes at ₹1.6 to 2 crore, a 3.5 BHK at ₹2.2 to 2.3 crore and a 4.5 BHK of 2,550 sq.ft at ₹2.8 to 3 crore.\r\nGST, registration, parking and club charges come on top, so keep another 10 to 12 percent aside and ask for the full cost sheet before booking.\r\nIs it expensive? Not for this stretch. Big-brand launches nearby ask ₹12,500 to ₹15,000 per sq.ft, so Urban Glenn sits in the middle.\r\nLocation: Chikkavaderapura and Around\r\nChikkavaderapura sits in a useful spot. Greenwood High is next door, Wipro SEZ and the Sarjapur Road tech parks are 20 to 25 minutes away, and Whitefield and the Outer Ring Road are 10 to 12 km away. The airport is a 75 to 90 minute drive.\r\nThe honest downside is traffic. Varthur Road and the Dommasandra junction choke at peak hours, and roads and drainage are still catching up. Parts of this belt have seen waterlogging, so visit during the monsoon if you can.\r\nAmenities and the Scottish Theme\r\nThis is where Urban Glenn stands apart. The Scottish-themed township promises over 140 amenities, centred on a 3-acre golf range, rare at this price. There are four clubhouses, including Club Inverness for wellness and Club Glasgow for sports, plus a man-made lake, a 3 km jogging loop, a cycling track, pools and a pre-school.\r\nAsk which of these will actually be ready when Phase I is handed over.\r\nAbhee City Urban Glenn Reviews: What Buyers Are Saying\r\nThe project is still under construction, so there are no resident reviews yet; most feedback comes from site visits.\r\nBuyers like the scale, the open space and the master plan. The price is lower than big-brand launches nearby, and Phase I has its key approvals in place.\r\nThere are concerns too. Some ads mention 2029, but the RERA date is December 2033, so plan around that. With 3,000 homes planned, traffic will rise. Some Abhee City Urban Glenn Chikkavaderapura reviews say channel partners quote different prices for the same unit, so compare with the builder’s cost sheet. Check flooding risk and nearby high-tension lines too.\r\nAbhee City Urban Glenn for Sale: What to Check Before Booking\r\nMost Abhee City Urban Glenn for sale listings are primary inventory from the builder, plus a few early resale bookings that need care over transfer charges. Verify the RERA number on the Karnataka RERA website, ask for the carpet area and get a construction-linked payment schedule in writing.\r\nThe Verdict\r\nAbhee City Urban Glenn is one of the more interesting launches on Sarjapur–Varthur Road, with strong amenities and fair pricing. It suits families happy to wait until 2033. If you need a home sooner, look at ready options first, including Abhee Celestial City.\r\nEither way, visit the site, read the RERA documents yourself and don’t rush because of a limited-period offer. Good projects don’t vanish in a week.\r\nOfficial project page: https://abheecityurbanglen.com/\r\nIf you object to the content of this press release, please notify us at pr.error.rectification@gmail.com.

The move reinforces the company’s commitment to combining professional cleaning services with sustainability, safety, and measurable results for urban homeowners who are increasingly conscious about what goes into their living spaces.\r\nDelhi’s mix of dust, seasonal humidity, and ongoing construction activity means most homes need far more than a quick weekend wipe-down. Recognising this, NoBroker Cleaning has built its offering around a simple but important idea: a home should be spotless without being soaked in harsh chemicals. That philosophy sits at the core of the brand’s eco smart cleaning approach, which replaces traditional chemical bleach with active foam technology and high-pressure steam to lift dirt, grease, and grime without leaving behind fumes or residue.\r\nEco Smart Cleaning, Engineered for Real Homes\r\nWhat makes NoBroker’s eco friendly cleaning method stand out in a crowded market is its emphasis on being odourless, non-corrosive, and family-safe. For homes with young children, elderly residents, or pets (all of whom are more sensitive to strong cleaning fumes), this distinction matters. Instead of masking odours with fragrance, NoBroker’s eco-smart process is designed to leave surfaces genuinely clean, not just chemically scented.\r\nThe company’s kitchen cleaning service uses power-steam degreasing to cut through built-up grease on stovetops, tiles, and countertops, a common pain point in Delhi apartments where compact kitchens see heavy daily use. Meanwhile, its sofa and upholstery cleaning relies on a water-saving foam technique that dries considerably faster than conventional wet-shampoo methods, an important consideration during Delhi’s humid months when slow-drying fabric can develop a musty smell.\r\nBy pairing these innovations under one umbrella, NoBroker has positioned its home cleaning services as a genuine alternative to both traditional local cleaning contractors and generic gig-based services that rely on standard detergents and bleach-heavy formulations.\r\nTrained Partners, Transparent Pricing\r\nEvery cleaning professional deployed through the platform is background-verified and trained on standardised protocols before being assigned to a home, an approach that has helped NoBroker build trust among first-time users who are naturally cautious about letting strangers into their homes. The company backs this with a best price guarantee and free rescheduling policy, removing much of the friction that typically accompanies booking professional cleaning services in a busy city like Delhi.\r\nCustomers can choose from full home deep cleaning, partial or by-room cleaning, kitchen-specific degreasing, and sofa or upholstery care, each customisable based on the size and condition of the home. This flexibility has made NoBroker Cleaning a popular choice not just for routine upkeep but also for one-time deep cleans before moving in, hosting guests, or preparing a property for tenants.\r\nCustomer Sentiment Reflects the Shift\r\nReviews from Delhi customers consistently highlight two things: the absence of a strong chemical smell after service, and the visible difference in kitchen and bathroom surfaces post-cleaning. This aligns with the company’s broader push to be recognised not merely as another cleaning aggregator, but as a brand associated specifically with safe, effective, and sustainable eco smart cleaning.\r\n“Home cleaning shouldn’t come at the cost of indoor air quality,” said a NoBroker spokesperson. “Our eco-smart approach was built because we saw a real gap: most cleaning services in India still rely on strong chemical agents that leave behind odour and residue. We wanted to change that starting with Delhi, a city where humidity and dust make regular deep cleaning almost a necessity.”\r\nWhy It Matters for Delhi Homeowners?\r\nDelhi’s rapid urban growth has meant more apartments, more construction dust, and more demand for reliable home upkeep. Traditional eco friendly cleaning options in the city have historically been limited to a handful of niche providers with inconsistent quality. NoBroker’s scale (having cleaned well over a million homes and more than a billion square feet of living space nationally) allows it to bring an eco-conscious cleaning standard to the mainstream market rather than keeping it a premium niche offering.\r\nThe company’s continued investment in home cleaning services infrastructure, including standardised training modules for its cleaning partners and ongoing refinement of its foam and steam-based technology, signals a long-term commitment rather than a one-off marketing push.

NoBroker has deepened its investment in design expertise, craftsmanship, and service reliability, positioning NoBroker Painting as the choice for those seeking quality-led, personalised painting services rather than the cheapest quote available.\r\nPune homeowners renovating apartments, villas, and independent houses have historically had to choose between unorganised local painters offering limited colour options, or premium design studios charging steep consultation fees. NoBroker’s expanded painting offering is built to close that gap, combining expert guidance with an expansive palette that would typically only be available through high-end interior designers.\r\nExpert Consultation Meets Unmatched Design Choice\r\nAt the start of every project, NoBroker offers a dedicated expert consultation to help homeowners translate their vision into a practical, design-led execution plan. This consultative approach is a meaningful departure from conventional house painting vendors, who typically walk in with a handful of shade cards and little real design input.\r\nCustomers opting for NoBroker’s interior painting and exterior painting services gain access to more than 2,200 shades and over 1,000 texture ideas, a level of customisation rarely available through independent contractors. Whether a homeowner is looking for a subtle, neutral palette for a rental property or a bold, textured statement wall for a living room, the sheer breadth of options allows for genuine personalisation rather than a one-size-fits-all approach to home painting.\r\nCraftsmanship Backed by Rigorous Training\r\nA premium finish depends as much on the people applying the paint as it does on the paint itself. NoBroker’s painting partners undergo more than 300 hours of structured training before being deployed on customer projects, covering everything from surface preparation and wall health assessment to the correct application techniques for different paint types and textures. This investment in skilled labour is central to the brand’s shift from being seen as an affordable option to being recognised as a genuinely premium provider of painting services.\r\nThe company pairs its skilled workforce with premium paints from trusted, established brands, ensuring that the finish not only looks superior at handover but holds up over time against Pune’s humidity and seasonal weather shifts. Every project includes masking of furniture and electrical outlets, a structured quality check, and post-paint cleanup, reflecting an end-to-end managed process rather than a transactional paint-and-leave job.\r\nTransparent Pricing Without Compromising on Quality\r\nDespite its premium positioning, NoBroker has kept pricing transparent, currently offering a flat 15% discount alongside quotes generated from accurate, laser-based measurements rather than rough estimates. Combined with a service guarantee and a strong track record of on-time project completion, this approach directly addresses two of the biggest pain points homeowners face when booking house painting work: unpredictable costs and delayed timelines.\r\nCustomer reviews reflect this shift in perception. Homeowners across Pune have highlighted the attention to detail their painting partners bring to colour selection, the smoothness of the final finish, and the professionalism of teams who clean up thoroughly once the interior painting or exterior work is complete.\r\nA Deliberate Shift Toward Premium Positioning\r\n“We didn’t want NoBroker Painting to simply be another vendor offering a lick of paint at a low price,” said a NoBroker spokesperson. “Our focus now is on design-led, expert-guided home painting the kind of service where a homeowner walks away with a space that genuinely reflects their taste, executed by trained professionals using premium materials.”\r\nThis repositioning is deliberate and data-backed. As more Indian homeowners research painting services online before booking, NoBroker is investing heavily in making sure its expert consultation model, extensive shade library, and trained painting partner network are the defining features associated with its brand, rather than price alone.\r\nWhat This Means for Pune Homeowners\r\nFor a city like Pune, where new apartment complexes and villa communities are constantly being painted, repainted, and refreshed, the demand for reliable, design-conscious house painting continues to grow. NoBroker’s combination of expert consultation, an expansive shade and texture library, trained painting partners, and transparent, guaranteed pricing gives homeowners a credible mid-to-premium alternative to both unorganised local painters and expensive boutique design firms.\r\nAs the NoBroker Painting vertical continues to scale its trained partner network and refine its consultation-led process, the brand is positioning itself as a long-term, design-forward choice for anyone searching for dependable home painting in Puneone where craftsmanship, colour expertise, and customer experience matter as much as the final price tag.\r\nAbout NoBroker\r\nNoBroker is India’s leading proptech platform, offering brokerage-free real estate services alongside home services including painting, cleaning, packers and movers, and more, serving customers across major Indian cities including Bangalore, Mumbai, Pune, Chennai, Hyderabad, and Delhi-NCR.\r\nIf you object to the content of this press release, please notify us at pr.error.rectification@gmail.com.

Since the rebrand, P•TAL has served 150,000+ customers across a footprint spanning 40+ countries, positioning Indian metalware as a design-forward lifestyle choice rather than a commodity purchase. Through its packaging, the brand has eliminated 880 kg of plastic. It now supports the livelihoods of 125+ artisan families, increasing their monthly incomes by 3500% in the last three years, strengthening the continuity of a UNESCO-recognised metalcraft tradition and enabling fairer, more sustainable incomes for craft communities.\r\nThe repositioning also delivered clear business milestones. P•TAL was selected as one of only five Indian brands to showcase at Shoppe Object in New York. Additionally, the brand expanded its retail footprint by opening an Exclusive Brand Outlet in Banjara Hills, Hyderabad. In September 2025, following the rebrand, P•TAL raised $3 million in a Series-A funding round led by VC Grid, with participation from Rainmatter, the fund backed by Zerodha’’s Nithin Kamath.\r\nMoreover, the perception of the category shifted from traditional, outdated metal cookware to a modern, health-conscious lifestyle choice. That resonated with a younger, globally aware audience seeking authenticity, wellness and design-led functionality while protecting cultural heritage through commercial viability. View the case study here: https://www.mothertonguedesign.com/ptal\r\n Speaking on the win, Shruti Singhi, Founder &amp;amp; Creative Director, Mother Tongue Design, said: “Trends move fast but culture moves slow, and that’s exactly why it lasts. When a brand is genuinely rooted in something real, it doesn’t need to chase relevance, rather it becomes relevant on its own terms, and stays that way long after the trend has moved on. That’s the difference between creating a category and simply decorating one. Very early on, we knew this would go beyond design and that we needed to tap into a deeper, sub-cultural vein and honour legacy in every detail. The more closely we listened to the craft and the energy of the people behind it, the clearer the design became. These two Blue Elephants belong as much to the artisans as they do to us. P•TAL taught us that when you listen closely to the craft and the people behind it, design finds its own voice and we’re grateful to see that kind of listening recognised.” \r\n\r\nAditya Agrawal, CEO &amp;amp; Co-founder, P•TAL (Punjab Thathera Art Legacy), said:“The idea behind refreshing our brand identity was about creating a brand that could connect with audiences beyond India, while staying rooted in our craft and heritage. We’re especially grateful to see this intent recognised through our design partner, Mother Tongue Design, and we thank Shruti and the MTD team for translating our craft, process and community into something our artisans can be proud to see travel the world.”\r\nAN IDENTITY FORGED IN THE WORKSHOP\r\nP•TAL is part of a broader shift away from cookware packaging’s long-standing minimalist default, using cultural craft as its starting point. The color system MTD built is drawn directly from the materials and processes of India’s Thathera craftsmanship, so palette becomes a form of translation rather than styling.\r\nThe work began at the core of the brand, with something as intangible as the rhythm of metal being beaten by hand. That led MTD to define five pillars – material, functionality, craftsmanship, revival and Ayurveda. Rather than treating the project as a campaign, the agency focused on the community and the making process itself became the inspiration, its rhythm, repetition and tools translated directly into the forms and patterns that make up the visual language. The palette comes from the workshop floor, charcoal, the amber glow of fire and the deep tones of tamarind used to clean the metal. Simple vessel silhouettes echo the hammer marks and transformation at the heart of the metalworking process itself, keeping the graphic language tied to the hands and techniques behind each object.\r\nAN AGENCY THAT DEFIES CATEGORISATION\r\nP•TAL is not an outlier in MTD’s portfolio, it’s a distillation of how the agency works. Since 2012, MTD has resisted easy categorisation, building a strategy-led practice at the intersection of culture and craft that treats culture as the root system a brand grows from. Across its work with brands like Forest Essentials, Vahdam, Maska and Nimai, that instinct holds; MTD starts not with what a brand should look like, but with the truth sitting at the centre of it, letting the visual language follow downstream so the result reads as lived-in rather than applied.\r\n\r\nABOUT MOTHER TONGUE DESIGN\r\nMother Tongue Design (MTD) is a Mumbai-based strategy-led creative design agency founded in 2012. Strategy-first by instinct and multidisciplinary by practice, MTD works across brand identity, packaging, spatial, digital, and emerging media, with a portfolio spanning FMCG, luxury and lifestyle categories. Its work with brands such as Forest Essentials, P•TAL, Vahdam, Maska and Nimai, The Ballard Pier, Tiger Tales, among others is defined by a culturally immersed, strategically rigorous methodology, built on the conviction that a powerful brand communicates in a voice entirely its own. Mother Tongue Design has been recognised by e4m, India’s Best Design Awards (2024), and the Kyooruis Awards 2026 for P•TAL.

Groww, Zerodha, and INDmoney do not\npublicly disclose AUM.\n\nHow Each Platform Scores — Radar Comparison\n\nWe scored each platform on five\nparameters Advisory Depth, Digital Experience, Product Breadth, Fee\nTransparency, and Investor Trust  on a\nscale of 1 to 10. The radar charts below show how each platform&#039;s strengths and\ngaps compare at a glance.\n\nAssets Under Management — Publicly Reported Figures\n\nNote: Groww, Zerodha, and INDmoney\ndo not publicly disclose AUM figures. Anand Rathi Wealth&#039;s AUM reflects its\nstatus as a listed, non-bank wealth firm primarily serving HNI and UHNI\nclients.\n\n1 Groww India&#039;s Largest Online Mutual Fund Platform by\nUsers\n\nBest for: First-time investors\nstarting mutual fund investment through SIPs under ₹10,000/month\n\nGroww is India&#039;s most downloaded\ninvestment platform and the largest mutual fund platform by registered users.\nIts appeal is simplicity no jargon, no complexity, just a clean app that takes\nyou from download to your first ₹500 SIP in under ten minutes.\n\nThe platform offers direct mutual funds\nwith zero commission, stocks, IPOs, fixed deposits, digital gold, and US stock\ninvesting. For someone entering the world of MF investment for the first time,\nGroww&#039;s in-app calculators, fund comparison tools, and beginner content library\nstrip away the intimidation that has historically kept young Indians away from\nmutual fund platforms. Groww has also received an AMC license, signalling its\nambition to move from an online MF distribution platform into fund\nmanufacturing.\n\nLimitations: No personalised advisory, no relationship manager, and no PMS or AIF\nproducts. Groww is a self-serve investment platform. Once your portfolio crosses\n₹25–50 lakh and you need guidance on asset allocation or tax planning, the\nplatform has a ceiling.\n\n2 FundsIndia—Where Online Investment Meets Professional\nWealth Management\n\nBest for: Investors getting started\nwho want to avoid costly DIY investing mistakes, with guidance from certified\nexperts backed by a SEBI-registered research team covering mutual funds, stocks\nand more.\n\n \n\nIf the question is which investment\nplatform in India works for someone whose needs will evolve over the next\ndecade, FundsIndia is the strongest answer. It is one of the few online\ninvestment platforms that credibly serves retail SIP investors and ultra-HNI\nfamilies under the same roof combining the convenience of a mutual fund\nplatform with the depth of a full-service wealth management firm.\n\nFounded in 2008 in Chennai and backed by\nWestBridge Capital, FundsIndia manages over ₹32,800 crore in AUM. That number\nhas grown 58% year-on-year and compounded at 38% over three years, one of the\nfastest growth rates among wealth management firms in the mid-size category.\n\nOn the retail side, the mutual fund\nplatform powers 2.85 lakh+ active SIPs with access to mutual funds, equities,\nfixed deposits, gold ETFs, bonds, and goal-based financial planning. The app is\npaperless and supports SIP calculators, step-up SIP planning, portfolio\nanalytics, and family portfolio management. For anyone looking to invest money\nonline through mutual fund investment, the digital experience matches any\nleading MF investment platform in the market.\n\nWhat sets FundsIndia apart from most\nonline investment platforms is the depth of guidance behind the technology. The\nplatform’s investment recommendations are built on a research-backed framework\nwith a proven track record — including the proprietary 5 Finger Strategy, which\nhas outperformed the Nifty 50 TRI over a 20-year period. Investors get access\nto dedicated advisors who help with goal-based planning, portfolio reviews, and\nrebalancing — not just a catalogue of funds to pick from.\n\nThe platform operates across three\nchannels: a direct-to-consumer digital experience for retail investors, a\npartner network that empowers independent financial advisors, and an\nadvisory-led model for investors whose portfolios require more structured\nguidance. Together, these ensure that investors can grow with the platform\nrather than outgrowing it.\n\n2.85 lakh+ active SIPs, ₹32,800 crore\nAUM, presence across India, with over 71% of investors coming from beyond the\ntop metro cities. The firm was also featured in Forbes India’s March 2026\nedition.\n\n \n\n3 Zerodha (Coin)—The Benchmark for Low-Cost Online\nInvestment\n\nBest for: Self-directed investors and\nactive traders who want execution speed and low costs over advisory\nhand-holding\n\nZerodha pioneered discount broking in\nIndia and remains the country&#039;s largest stockbroker by active clients. Its\nmutual fund arm, Coin, offers commission-free direct plan MF investment\nintegrated with the broader Zerodha ecosystem: Kite for stock trading, Console\nfor portfolio and tax reporting, and Varsity for investor education.\n\nFor investors who know what they want and\nneed an investment platform that executes fast and cheap, Zerodha is hard to\nbeat. There are no pop-up recommendations, no relationship manager calls, and\nno product push. You decide, and Zerodha executes. Varsity, its free education\nplatform, is widely considered the strongest self-learn investing resource in\nIndia.\n\nLimitations: No personalised advisory, no wealth planning, and no access to PMS,\nAIF, or estate services. Zerodha is intentionally a self-serve online\ninvestment platform. If you need someone to build and manage your portfolio,\nthis is not the right fit.\n\n4 INDmoney—The All-in-One Investment and Net Worth\nTracking Platform\n\nBest for: Investors who want a single\ndashboard to track bank accounts, mutual funds, stocks, EPF, NPS, credit cards,\nand US equities in one place\n\nINDmoney positions itself as a\n&quot;super money app,&quot; and its strongest feature is multi-account\naggregation. By pulling data from bank accounts, demat accounts, MF folios,\nEPF, NPS, and credit cards, the app gives you a consolidated net worth view\nthat no single-category investment platform can match.\n\nBeyond tracking, INDmoney offers direct\nmutual fund investment with zero commission, Indian and US stock trading under\nRBI&#039;s LRS allowance, SIPs, IPOs, and fixed deposits. The platform has crossed\n10 million registered users. A paid subscription adds a dedicated wealth\nmanager and tax tools, though these managers are not SEBI-registered RIAs —\nthey operate as relationship managers backed by algorithms.\n\nLimitations: The Advisory layer is algorithmic, not fiduciary. No PMS or AIF\naccess. INDmoney&#039;s strength is aggregation and online MF investment, not deep\nwealth planning or investment management for complex portfolios.\n\n5 Scripbox—Goal-Based Mutual Fund Platform with Managed\nInvesting\n\nBest for: Families and long-term\ninvestors who want curated mutual fund investment portfolios with periodic\nrebalancing\n\nScripbox has been around since 2012,\nmaking it one of India&#039;s earliest digital wealth management firms. Unlike most\nMF investment platforms that hand you a catalogue of thousands of funds,\nScripbox curates a limited set of schemes using proprietary algorithms and\nrebalances them periodically.\n\nThe mutual fund platform manages over\n₹18,500 crore in AUM across 1 lakh+ families in 2,500+ cities. Its product\nsuite has expanded to include PMS, AIF, bonds, and fixed deposits. Revenue\ncrossed ₹109 crore in FY25, growing 21%, reflecting strong retention among\ninvestors who prefer a curated approach.\n\nLimitations: Less fund choice for experienced investors. App stability has received\nmixed reviews. PMS onboarding was reportedly paused as of late 2026 for account\nmigration.\n\n6 Anand Rathi Wealth — Data-Driven Investment Management\nfor HNIs\n\nBest for: HNIs and UHNIs with ₹50\nlakh+ portfolios who want relationship manager-led, data-driven wealth advisory\n\nAnand Rathi Wealth is a publicly listed,\nnon-bank wealth management firm in the private wealth business since 2002. In\nQ1 FY27, the firm crossed ₹106,300 crore in AUM. It serves 13,941+ client\nfamilies through 417 relationship managers across 18+ cities, including Dubai.\n\nFY26 profit after tax grew 28% to ₹386\ncrore on revenue of ₹1,149 crore, with 18 consecutive quarters of 20%+ PAT\ngrowth. For HNIs seeking a wealth management firm driven by data and discipline\nrather than product-pushing, Anand Rathi is one of the strongest independent\noptions.\n\nLimitations: A high minimum entry point makes it inaccessible for retail investors.\nThe digital experience is secondary to its RM-led model. Not designed for\nself-directed mutual fund investment.\n\nWhich Investment Platform Should You Choose?\n\nThe right investment platform depends\nentirely on where you are today and where your finances are headed.\n\nIf you are starting your first mutual fund\ninvestment with ₹1,000 a month, a clean online investment platform like Groww\nor Zerodha will get you investing with zero friction. If you want to track\neverything you own in one dashboard, INDmoney does that better than anyone.\n\nIf you prefer managed, curated mutual\nfund investing, Scripbox is purpose-built for that. If your wealth has crossed\n₹50 lakh and you want a dedicated relationship manager from an established\nwealth management firm, Anand Rathi Wealth has the track record.\n\nAnd if you want one investment platform\nthat can serve you at every stage, from your first ₹1,000 online MF SIP to a\n₹10 crore family portfolio needing PMS, AIF, and estate planning  FundsIndia is the one platform on this list\nthat bridges digital mutual fund investment with professional wealth management\nunder a single roof.\n\nIndia has never had this many credible\nonline investment platforms competing for your money. The smart move is to pick\na platform you will not outgrow in three years.Disclaimer: This article is for informational purposes only and does not constitute investment advice.

A typical day can begin with a long drive or airport transfer,\ncontinue with sightseeing through a busy city, and end with a walk along a\ntrail or an outdoor dinner. For men who prefer a practical wardrobe, clothing\nthat can adapt to different parts of the day can make packing and dressing much\nsimpler.\n\nThis is where the combination of a polo T\nshirt and convertible pants becomes useful. A polo brings a polished appearance\nthat works beyond purely casual settings, while convertible pants offer\nflexibility when the temperature, activity or destination changes.\n\nFor travellers looking for a convertible pant for men, the appeal is\nnot simply the ability to change from trousers to shorts. The larger advantage\nis versatility. One outfit can support different parts of a journey without\nrequiring a complete change of clothes.\n\nWhy Versatility Matters in a Travel Wardrobe\n\nPacking for a trip is often about\nbalancing comfort, practicality and the number of outfits you need. Carry too\nlittle and you may not have the right clothing when conditions change. Carry\ntoo much and your luggage becomes harder to manage.\n\nVersatile clothing offers another\napproach.\n\nA useful travel wardrobe can include\npieces that work across multiple situations. A polo can be worn with jeans for\na city day, chinos for a casual dinner or functional trousers for outdoor\nplans. Similarly, convertible pants can provide full length coverage when\ntemperatures are cooler and a shorter option when the weather becomes warmer.\n\nThis approach is particularly relevant\nfor road trips, sightseeing holidays and travel plans that combine urban\ndestinations with outdoor experiences.\n\nWhat Makes a Polo T Shirt Useful for Travel?\n\nA polo T shirt for men occupies an interesting\nplace in a man&#039;s wardrobe. It is more structured than a basic crew neck T shirt\nbut still relaxed enough for everyday travel.\n\nThe collar and placket give the outfit a\ncleaner appearance, while the right fabric can provide the comfort needed for\nlong days away from home.\n\nFor travel, practical features can matter\nas much as appearance. A lightweight construction can be useful in warmer\nconditions, while stretch can make movement easier during long journeys,\nwalking and everyday activities. When outdoor exposure is part of the\nitinerary, sun protection can also be a useful consideration.\n\nA performance focused polo with stretch\nand sun protection can therefore serve more than one purpose. It can work\nduring a road trip, a city walk, a casual lunch or a day that includes light\noutdoor activity.\n\nThe key is choosing a polo that balances\neveryday styling with features suited to movement and changing conditions.\n\nWhy Convertible Pants Make Sense When Plans Change\n\nConvertible pants are designed around a\nsimple idea: one garment can adapt to different conditions.\n\nA traditional pair of trousers may be\ncomfortable during a cooler morning but less appealing when the temperature\nrises. A separate pair of shorts solves that problem, although it also means\ncarrying another garment.\n\nConvertible pants provide another option.\nTheir construction allows the lower section of the trousers to be removed when\na shorter length is more comfortable.\n\nThis can be especially practical for\ntravel where the itinerary changes throughout the day. A traveller may start\nthe morning in full length pants, spend several hours exploring a city and\nlater move into a warmer outdoor environment. Instead of carrying multiple\nbottom wear options, one convertible design can adapt.\n\nConvertible cargo pants can also add\npractical storage through multiple pockets, making them particularly relevant\nfor road trips, sightseeing and outdoor travel where keeping small essentials\naccessible can be useful.\n\nBuilding a City to Trail Travel Outfit\n\nThe strength of this combination comes\nfrom how easily the pieces work together.\n\nA Navy or Black polo with convertible\ncargo pants creates a clean foundation for a travel outfit. Comfortable\nsneakers can complete the look for a day that includes driving, airport\ntransfers, sightseeing and casual outdoor activities.\n\nFor a city focused itinerary, the polo\nkeeps the outfit polished without becoming formal. When the journey moves\ntowards a more active setting, the functional character of the convertible\ncargo pants adds practicality without requiring an entirely different outfit.\n\nThe combination also leaves room for\nsimple adjustments. A lightweight outer layer can be added for cooler\nconditions, while changing footwear can make the same clothing suitable for\ndifferent parts of the trip.\n\nChoosing Colours That Work Across the Journey\n\nWhen building a versatile travel\nwardrobe, colour can have as much impact as the design of the clothing.\n\nNeutral and understated shades generally\noffer more styling possibilities because they can be paired with several other\npieces.\n\nNavy works well with beige, khaki and\ndenim. Black can be paired with blue jeans, neutral trousers or cargo pants.\nCharcoal creates another understated option that works well with lighter and\ndarker bottom wear.\n\nThese combinations make it easier to\ncreate different looks without carrying multiple specialised outfits.\n\nThe goal is not to create a complicated\ntravel wardrobe. It is to choose pieces that can work together without\nrequiring a different outfit for every activity.\n\nFrom Airport to Road Trip to Outdoor Exploration\n\nA good travel outfit should support the\njourney rather than constantly require attention.\n\nConsider a road trip that begins early in\nthe morning. Full length convertible pants can provide coverage during the\ncooler start to the day, while a performance focused polo provides comfortable\nmovement during the drive.\n\nBy afternoon, the itinerary may include\nwalking through a city or stopping at an outdoor destination. The same outfit\ncan continue to work without feeling out of place.\n\nLater, when temperatures rise or the\nsurroundings become more relaxed, the convertible design provides another\noption without adding another complete outfit to the luggage.\n\nThis is where the city to trail approach\nbecomes practical. The objective is not to dress specifically for one activity.\nIt is to choose clothing that can comfortably support several activities during\nthe same day.\n\nWhat to Look for in Travel Clothing for Men\n\nTravel clothing needs to reflect the\nconditions in which it will actually be worn.\n\nComfort is important when clothing may be\nworn for several hours at a time. Freedom of movement matters during walking\nand outdoor activities. Fabric choice can influence how clothing performs in\nwarm conditions, while sun protection can become useful for extended outdoor\nexposure.\n\nPractical details also matter. Functional\npockets can provide convenient storage, while versatile colours make it easier\nto create multiple outfits with fewer pieces.\n\nIt is also worth considering how easily\nan item can work with the rest of the wardrobe. A versatile polo should pair\ncomfortably with different trousers, while adaptable pants should work with\nmore than one type of top.\n\nMost importantly, travel clothing should\nmatch the journey. Someone spending most of the trip in cities may need\ndifferent features from someone combining city travel with outdoor exploration.\n\nThere is no single travel wardrobe that\nworks for everyone. The useful approach is to choose clothing according to\ndestination, climate, activity and personal preference.\n\nA More Practical Approach to Packing\n\nThe advantage of versatile clothing\nbecomes even clearer when packing for a shorter trip.\n\nInstead of taking several outfits\ndesigned for specific activities, travellers can build combinations around a\nfew dependable pieces.\n\nA polo can be worn with jeans, chinos,\nshorts or convertible cargo pants. Convertible pants can provide flexibility\nacross different temperatures and activities. An additional lightweight layer\ncan help when conditions become cooler.\n\nThis approach does not mean taking the\nsmallest possible amount of clothing. It means making each piece useful in more\nthan one situation.\n\nFor travellers who move frequently\nbetween destinations, that can make packing more manageable while keeping\noutfit choices simple.\n\nHow Eddie Bauer India Approaches Everyday Outdoor Clothing\n\nEddie Bauer India brings outdoor\ninfluenced functionality into clothing designed for modern everyday life,\ntravel and movement.\n\nThe approach combines practical\nconstruction with versatile designs that can work across different\nenvironments. Performance focused polos can provide comfort and mobility, while\nconvertible cargo pants offer adaptability when temperature and activity\nchange.\n\nTogether, these types of clothing reflect a broader approach to travel dressing: practical enough for an active day while remaining suitable for everyday settings.When Convertible Pants May Not Be NecessaryConvertible pants are not automatically the right choice for every trip.If a journey involves consistently cool weather, full length trousers may be sufficient throughout the day. Similarly, travellers who prefer dedicated shorts and dedicated trousers may not need a convertible design.The value of convertible clothing depends on how often the additional flexibility will actually be useful.That is an important distinction when choosing travel clothing. A feature has value when it solves a genuine problem in the way you travel. The same principle applies to fabric, stretch, pockets, sun protection and other performance features.Understanding the destination and itinerary first can make it easier to decide which features are genuinely useful and which ones may add unnecessary complexity.Creating a Travel Wardrobe That Moves With YouTravel becomes easier when clothing can adapt to the journey instead of limiting it.A polo T shirt provides a versatile upper layer that can work across casual, travel and outdoor settings. Convertible pants add flexibility when temperature and activity change. Together, they create a simple foundation for a wardrobe that can move from the city to the trail without requiring a complete change of clothing.For travellers who value practical design, comfortable movement and adaptable clothing, this combination offers a straightforward way to pack with more purpose.Eddie Bauer India reflects this city to outdoor approach through clothing designed around movement, utility and versatility, making these types of pieces relevant to modern travel as well as everyday wear.Frequently Asked QuestionsAre polo T shirts good for travel?Yes.

They belonged to the groom getting ready for his wedding, the executive preparing for an important meeting, or the guest arriving for a formal celebration. Small in size but rich in character, they have always carried the weight of an occasion.\r\n\r\n\r\nToday, Cufflinks are finding a wider place in men’s style. Indian men are paying greater attention to the details that complete a formal look. A sharply cut suit, a tuxedo, a French-cuff shirt, or an Indian kurta can create a polished foundation. The right Cufflinks add the final note of personality. They make a look feel deliberate, polished, and personal.\r\n\r\n\r\nTivaaro: A brand built around Cufflinks\r\n\r\n\r\nTivaaro.com, India’s dedicated Cufflinks brand, is putting Cufflinks at the centre of a more considered formal wardrobe - treating Cufflinks as a category with its own language, rather than a small accessory section within a broad formalwear catalogue. With 350+ designs and India’s largest Watch Cufflinks collection, the brand brings distinctive finishing details to office wear, weddings, celebrations, professional occasions, and meaningful gifting, for those who want a conversation-starting detail in their formal wardrobe or a memorable, personal gift.\r\n\r\n\r\nThe range is designed to serve several kinds of moments. A restrained pair can sit naturally within daily office wear. A more distinctive design can suit a wedding reception, cocktail evening, or celebration. For a buyer searching for a gift, the variety makes it easier to choose something that feels personal rather than predictable.\r\n\r\n\r\nCufflinks and the return of formal dressing\r\n\r\n\r\nDressing up is increasingly intentional. Professionals are investing in wardrobes that take them from office wear and client meetings to formal dinners, festive events, and milestones. Weddings are more considered and visually memorable. Celebrations also come with a stronger sense of personal style. The result is a renewed appreciation for accessories that bring character without appearing loud.\r\n\r\n\r\nCufflinks play a unique role in that wardrobe. A person notices them during a handshake, while adjusting a jacket cuff, raising a glass, or in photographs after an event. That visibility makes them an understated expression of taste. The best Cufflinks do not compete with an outfit. They complete it.\r\n\r\n\r\nThe formal wardrobe is becoming more individual. Buyers are moving beyond the same safe accessories for every occasion and looking for details that reflect personality. Some may prefer classic metal finishes. Others may choose a design inspired by travel, sport, business, music, or a timepiece. The appeal lies in finding a detail that feels right for the wearer and the moment.\r\n\r\n\r\nDressing with distinction from office wear to celebrations\r\n\r\n\r\nFor professionals in banking, law, consulting, wealth management, and senior leadership, Cufflinks remain a valuable part of formal presentation. They work with French-cuff shirts for board meetings, client events, presentations, award nights, and business dinners. They also offer a way to refresh familiar office wear without changing the essential structure of a professional wardrobe. A carefully selected pair can add distinction to a crisp white or pale-blue shirt while keeping the overall look refined.\r\n\r\n\r\nWatch Cufflinks as a signature detail\r\nSilver-Tone Chronograph-Style Watch Cufflinks. Shop now at tivaaro.com.\r\n\r\n\r\nWatch Cufflinks occupy a special place in the collection. Tivaaro has India’s largest Watch Cufflinks collection, and it is the brand’s best-selling category. The designs combine the familiar appeal of a timepiece with the elegance of a formal accessory. This makes them especially suited to people who appreciate small details that start a conversation while remaining appropriate for a refined outfit.\r\n\r\n\r\nA watch has long been one of the clearest expressions of men’s style. Watch Cufflinks carry that idea into formal dressing. They can introduce character to a classic shirt, work as a subtle reference to someone’s interest in watches, and make an outfit feel more individual without sacrificing elegance. For grooms and groomsmen, they can also become a meaningful detail that ties a wedding look together.\r\n\r\n\r\nClick to buy the Watch Cufflinks.\r\n\r\n\r\nCufflinks make a more meaningful gift for men\r\n\r\n\r\nThe category is equally compelling for gifting. Women buying gifts for men often encounter the same familiar choices: a wallet, fragrance, shirt, belt, or watch. Each can be useful, but they may not always feel personal. Cufflinks offer a more considered alternative. They can be selected around his interests, his work, an upcoming occasion, or simply the kind of style he enjoys.\r\n\r\n\r\nA well-chosen pair can mark a birthday, anniversary, promotion, wedding, retirement, or professional achievement. Unlike a gift that is used once and put away, Cufflinks can return to the wardrobe for future events. The man who receives them wears them, remembers the occasion, and carries that meaning into another important moment.\r\n\r\n\r\nThis is why Cufflinks are becoming increasingly relevant to modern men’s style. They bring together formal presentation, personal expression, and meaningful gifting in one detail. For someone dressing for an office meeting, a wedding, or a celebration, they offer a finishing touch that makes a familiar outfit feel complete.\r\n\r\n\r\nTivaaro’s Watch Cufflinks collection speaks directly to that idea. It offers buyers a design-led way to add personality to formal dressing, while remaining rooted in the elegance that makes Cufflinks timeless.\r\n\r\n\r\nCufflinks do not need to be the loudest part of a look to be remembered. Their power lies in the impression they create: a sharper sleeve, a more finished outfit, and a small detail that says the wearer has paid attention to detail. \r\n\r\n\r\nAs more Indian men choose to dress up with intention, Cufflinks are returning to the centre of the formal style conversation.\r\n\r\n","articleSection":"Business","datePublished":"2026-09-29T15:07:25+0530","dateModified":"2026-09-29T15:08:58+0530","inLanguage":"en-us","author":{"@type":"Person","name":"SCNWire","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com/user/scnwire"},"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Marudhara Bharti English","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com/uploads/logo/logo_6ab9270c36c334-01124948.png"}},"image":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg-PphTJ0mQrlhyphenhyphen1Za_SlrCosYzKWA8UiOQXebe5roZnFV1i96rr_PiaMqGRLuCyebA3-zKKkx6KrW6VV-M8geO1_9J5EAcUFgjT6xOEEbFzJ9V8TYeoNDVtOo7AFpJr9j4OGlfZL0krz5Q8ar8B_wpl0az83-o0ICAchQclbh292TnXUf8JAt8agn_iV0/w1600/Tivaaro.jpg","contentUrl":"https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg-PphTJ0mQrlhyphenhyphen1Za_SlrCosYzKWA8UiOQXebe5roZnFV1i96rr_PiaMqGRLuCyebA3-zKKkx6KrW6VV-M8geO1_9J5EAcUFgjT6xOEEbFzJ9V8TYeoNDVtOo7AFpJr9j4OGlfZL0krz5Q8ar8B_wpl0az83-o0ICAchQclbh292TnXUf8JAt8agn_iV0/w1600/Tivaaro.jpg"},"keywords":["Tivaaro","Cufflinks","India’s formal style conversation"]}</script>

Bigbloc Construction is expanding its walling portfolio beyond AAC blocks with ZMARTBUILD WALL AAC wall panels, offering a factory-enabled approach that can support faster installation, project-specific sizing and more predictable execution.\r\n\r\nThe Walling Opportunity Is Changing\r\nIndia’s construction landscape is becoming increasingly driven by project timelines, scale and the need for consistent execution. Data centres, warehouses, industrial facilities, large residential developments and other large projects require construction methods that can deliver speed without compromising quality. At the same time, labour availability and the complexity of coordinating multiple activities on site are encouraging developers and contractors to look at ways of moving more work into controlled manufacturing environments.\r\nThis is where the evolution from conventional masonry and individual walling products towards lightweight, prefabricated walling systems becomes relevant. AAC wall panels can be manufactured in a controlled environment and brought to site for installation, helping shift a part of the wall-construction process away from the site itself.\r\nFrom AAC Blocks to AAC Wall Panels\r\nAAC blocks continue to be an important solution for lightweight wall construction. However, as projects become larger and construction schedules become tighter, the focus is increasingly moving from the material alone to the way the wall is delivered and installed. AAC wall panels address this requirement by combining lightweight construction with factory-enabled production and on-site installation.\r\nFor large projects, this can create a more streamlined sequence of work. Panels can be manufactured in advance, transported to the project and installed as part of a planned execution schedule. This can reduce the amount of walling activity that needs to be carried out manually at the site and can help improve predictability in project execution.\r\n\r\nCustomised Sizing: Designing the Wall Around the Project\r\nOne of the important advantages of AAC wall panels is the ability to consider project-specific dimensions rather than relying only on standard block sizes. Depending on project requirements and manufacturing capabilities, panels can be planned around the required wall dimensions, openings and installation conditions. This customised approach can help reduce unnecessary cutting and adjustments at site and can make the installation process more systematic.\r\nFor projects with repetitive layouts, large wall areas or specific dimensional requirements, the ability to plan panel sizes in advance can also support better material planning and coordination between manufacturing, logistics and installation. In this sense, customisation is not simply a product feature; it can become part of a more integrated construction workflow.\r\nWhere AAC Wall Panels Can Be Used\r\nAAC wall panels can be particularly relevant in applications where speed, repeatability and lightweight construction are important. Potential use cases include internal and external non-load-bearing walls, partitions, large residential developments, commercial buildings, warehouses, industrial facilities and selected applications in data-centre construction, subject to project design, specifications and applicable standards.\r\nTheir relevance is especially visible in projects with large quantities of repetitive walling. In such environments, a factory-produced panel can help reduce the number of individual pieces that need to be handled and installed on site. The approach can also support better coordination when walling work has to progress alongside other construction activities.\r\nAdvantages Beyond Faster Installation\r\nThe potential advantage of AAC wall panels extends beyond installation speed. Factory-controlled production can help deliver greater consistency in dimensions and finish, while the lightweight nature of AAC can help reduce the dead load associated with wall construction. Prefabricated installation can also reduce site labour requirements and material handling, depending on the project methodology.\r\nIndustry experience indicates that wall panels can reduce walling-related construction time by around 30% to 50%, depending on the project, design, site conditions and execution methodology. The actual benefit will vary by application and should therefore be assessed against the overall project workflow rather than treated as a universal saving.\r\nAnother consideration is material efficiency. When panel dimensions are planned before production, the process can reduce the need for extensive cutting and modification at site. This can help minimise site waste and improve execution consistency, particularly in projects where wall dimensions are repeated across multiple floors or buildings.\r\nBigbloc’s Integrated Approach to Walling\r\nBigbloc Construction is building on its experience in AAC blocks while expanding towards a broader walling-solutions portfolio. Its offerings include NXTBLOC AAC blocks, ZMARTBUILD WALL AAC wall panels, NXTFIX jointing mortar and NXTPLAST ready mix plaster, covering key stages from wall construction to finishing.\r\nThe move towards wall panels is an extension of this approach. Rather than viewing walling as a single material decision, Bigbloc is focused on solutions that can work across manufacturing, installation and finishing. For developers and contractors, this creates an opportunity to look at walling as an integrated process, where product selection, dimensions, logistics and site execution are considered together.\r\nProven AAC Experience Across Large Developments\r\nBigbloc’s AAC blocks have been used across major developments including Lodha Group’s World One, L&amp;amp;T’s Crescent Bay and Palava Township. These applications demonstrate the relevance of lightweight AAC construction across high-rise and large integrated developments. The company’s experience in AAC provides a foundation as it expands its focus towards prefabricated walling solutions.\r\nA More Resource-Efficient Approach to Construction\r\nAAC is also relevant to the broader conversation around resource-efficient construction. Its lightweight characteristics can contribute to lower walling weight, while its thermal insulation properties can support energy-efficiency objectives. The use of fly ash in AAC production can also reduce dependence on conventional raw materials. Bigbloc has also registered an AAC block project under Verra’s Verified Carbon Standard.\r\nAs sustainability expectations become increasingly integrated into construction decisions, solutions that combine productivity with resource efficiency are gaining attention. For walling, this means evaluating not only the material itself but also how much labour, handling, waste and on-site activity are required to complete the wall.\r\nMohit Saboo, Director &amp;amp; CFO, Bigbloc Construction Limited, said:\r\n“The next phase of walling is about more than replacing one material with another. It is about making the entire process more predictable—from how a wall is designed and manufactured to how it reaches the site and is installed. AAC wall panels give developers and contractors the ability to bring greater prefabrication, dimensional planning and execution efficiency into the walling process. At Bigbloc, our focus is on developing solutions that respond to these changing requirements while building on our experience in AAC construction.”\r\nLooking Ahead\r\nAs India continues to build larger and more time-sensitive projects, the construction industry is likely to place greater emphasis on methods that combine speed, consistency and efficient site execution. AAC wall panels offer one route towards this evolution by moving a greater part of wall production into a controlled environment and bringing project-specific panels to site for installation.\r\nFor Bigbloc, the opportunity is to take its established AAC expertise into the next stage of walling—where customised sizing, prefabrication, integrated products and planned installation come together. The shift from blocks to panels is therefore not simply a change in format; it represents a broader move towards making wall construction faster, more systematic and better aligned with the needs of India’s large-scale construction projects.\r\nIf you object to the content of this press release, please notify us at pr.error.rectification@gmail.com.

What appears to be an insignificant piece of paper can sometimes represent an investment that is still worth lakhs—or even more.\r\nAcross India, thousands of families are finding themselves in similar situations. Addresses have changed, paperwork has been misplaced, and generations have moved on without knowing exactly what their predecessors invested in.\r\nEstimates suggest that nearly ₹4,00,000 crore worth of financial assets remain unclaimed or disconnected from their rightful owners.\r\nRecovering that money, however, is rarely as simple as finding an old certificate.\r\nThe process can involve tracing shareholder records, establishing succession, completing documentation, converting physical shares into demat form and, in some cases, filing claims with the Investor Education and Protection Fund (IEPF). For families dealing with investments made decades ago, the paperwork can quickly become overwhelming.\r\nThis is where a relatively unusual financial-services business is emerging.\r\nClearclaim, a Pune-based investor services firm, helps families trace and recover old shares, unclaimed dividends and other financial assets. Its work includes physical-to-DEMAT conversion, duplicate share certificates, transmission cases and IEPF claims.\r\nFor co-founder and CEO Shrikant Pandore, the problem is often one of awareness rather than the absence of wealth.\r\n“Our goal is to take a very complicated process and make it simple for investors,” he says. “Several families do not even know the wealth hidden in old investments.”\r\nHe further said that “Clearclaim has assisted hundreds of clients and facilitated the recovery of more than ₹150 crore worth of shares and dividends.”\r\n“Behind every recovery, however, is often a family story or a forgotten investment rediscovered while handling the affairs of a deceased parent, an old certificate found during a house move, or an inheritance that no one knew existed. Many investors assume that missing documents mean the money is gone. Others keep postponing the process because it appears too complicated.” He added.\r\nAs India’s investor base grows and wealth increasingly passes from one generation to another, companies such as Clearclaim are finding a growing role in helping families navigate this forgotten corner of the financial system.\r\nThe irony is that this is not necessarily wealth that was lost.\r\nIn many cases, it was simply forgotten—and is now waiting to be found.\r\nFor more information, please visit www.clearclaim.in","articleSection":"Business","datePublished":"2026-09-29T15:07:13+0530","dateModified":"2026-09-29T15:19:20+0530","inLanguage":"en-us","author":{"@type":"Person","name":"Correspondent Desk","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com/user/marudharabharti"},"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Marudhara Bharti English","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com/uploads/logo/logo_6ab9270c36c334-01124948.png"}},"image":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEjtznAsJ_0rb3VK_3q8z91ornqHjzdXQlS0IA_sDdJ9n5SNM3aItrS8gxl8xSQUQvpSkwrwF5N_aZJDSb6oqifhCeBvN9t9z1jCUXBuf5t5IQXaHHi-IfWgBqkT_xyJ9Wl7WMOckIUXXNMZtIH4m5Obprsxbayn8Z1Ii0gO_fYCR_uCT4uIoRhig0MowpSA=w1600","contentUrl":"https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEjtznAsJ_0rb3VK_3q8z91ornqHjzdXQlS0IA_sDdJ9n5SNM3aItrS8gxl8xSQUQvpSkwrwF5N_aZJDSb6oqifhCeBvN9t9z1jCUXBuf5t5IQXaHHi-IfWgBqkT_xyJ9Wl7WMOckIUXXNMZtIH4m5Obprsxbayn8Z1Ii0gO_fYCR_uCT4uIoRhig0MowpSA=w1600"},"keywords":["The","Shares","Grandfather","Left","Behind:","How","Forgotten","Investments","Are","Becoming","New","Business"]}</script>

Given the asset-light nature of the model and limited capital deployment required from Steamhouse, the project is expected to generate strong ROCE.\r\nThe project comprises a 300 TPH Steam Plant with indicative power generation capacity of 30 MW, along with the associated steam distribution network. The EPC execution period is 24 months, followed by the long-term O&amp;amp;M period.\r\nThe EPC contract value is ₹311 crore, inclusive of GST, providing Steamhouse with an immediate EPC execution opportunity alongside a long-term O&amp;amp;M business.\r\nKey Strategic Highlights\r\nAsset-Light Business Model: The project strengthens Steamhouse’s asset-light growth strategy. The Company will undertake the engineering, procurement, construction, commissioning and O&amp;amp;M of the project under the contractual framework prescribed by the Authority, enabling expansion of its operating platform without the same balance-sheet intensity associated with independently developing comparable utility assets.\r\nLong-Term Cost and Markup-Based Framework: The project provides a structured commercial framework considering actual operating costs, permissible markup and recoupment of Opex Gap Funding (OGF). The charges and revenue-sharing mechanism are linked to a standardized Internal Rate of Return (IRR) applicable to the pharmaceutical/API sector, as may be approved by the Competent Authority.\r\n25-Year O&amp;amp;M Opportunity: The mandate provides for comprehensive O&amp;amp;M for 25 years, creating a long-duration operating opportunity for Steamhouse following completion of the EPC phase. The project is envisaged to be executed within 24 months from the commencement of the project, subject to the terms and conditions of the definitive agreement, requisite approvals, site readiness and other applicable project conditions.\r\nIndicative 30 MW Power Generation: The project includes an indicative 30 MW co-generation facility. As per the RFP, power generated through the turbines is to be procured by the State Implementing Agency, with the Agency retaining rights over the generated power and its further distribution/sale.\r\nOGF Recovery Mechanism: The project provides for an initial subsidised period followed by a 20-year revenue-sharing period from April 2032 to March 2052. The commercial mechanism during the revenue-sharing period considers actual operating costs, permissible markup and recoupment of OGF borne during the subsidised period.\r\nSustainable Fuel Opportunity: The project provides an opportunity to evaluate biomass and suitable waste-derived fuel sources, including agricultural and other permitted waste-derived fuels, subject to technical feasibility, applicable environmental regulations and approvals.\r\nExpanding Steamhouse’s Generation Platform\r\nThe Una project is strategically significant in the context of Steamhouse’s expanding capacity.\r\nThe Company currently has approximately 345 TPH of steam generation and distribution capacity under its own generation and distribution model.\r\nWith 300 TPH being added through the Una project, along with approximately 360 TPH of additional capacity under construction, Steamhouse is building a significantly larger generation and distribution platform.\r\nThis represents a potential capacity platform of approximately 1,005 TPH, comprising existing capacity, the Una project and under-construction capacity, subject to project completion and commissioning.\r\nThe expansion reinforces Steamhouse’s strategy of developing large-scale centralized steam generation and distribution infrastructure for industrial clusters across India.\r\nManagement Commentary\r\nCommenting on the development, Mr Vishal S. Budhia, Chairman &amp;amp; Managing Director, Steamhouse India Limited, said:\r\n“The Una Steam Project marks an important milestone in Steamhouse’s growth journey. The combination of a 300 TPH Steam Plant, indicative 30 MW power generation, a ₹311 crore EPC opportunity and a 25-year O&amp;amp;M mandate creates a long-term platform for the Company.\r\nThe asset-light structure and structured commercial framework provide visibility into the long-term economics of the project, while the opportunity to evaluate sustainable fuels and additional common utilities further expands the potential of the platform.\r\nWith 345 TPH of existing capacity, 300 TPH being added through Una and another 360 TPH under construction, Steamhouse is significantly expanding its overall generation and distribution footprint.”\r\nAbout Steamhouse India Limited\r\nSteamhouse India Limited is engaged in the development and operation of centralized steam generation and distribution infrastructure for industrial customers.\r\nThe Company currently has approximately 345 TPH of steam generation and distribution capacity under its own generation and distribution model and is expanding its portfolio through additional projects under construction and development.\r\nWith the Una project adding 300 TPH and approximately 360 TPH of additional capacity under construction, Steamhouse is focused on building a scalable and diversified steam generation and distribution platform serving industrial clusters across India.\r\nCertain statements relating to future projects, capacity additions, additional utilities, alternative fuels and future business opportunities are forward-looking in nature and are subject to technical feasibility, regulatory approvals, contractual arrangements, customer demand, commercial considerations and other risks and uncertainties.","articleSection":"Business","datePublished":"2026-09-28T22:02:27+0530","dateModified":"2026-09-28T22:03:28+0530","inLanguage":"en-us","author":{"@type":"Person","name":"PNN","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com/user/pnnindia"},"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Marudhara Bharti English","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com/uploads/logo/logo_6ab9270c36c334-01124948.png"}},"image":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://pnndigital.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/09/PNN-2026-09-28T175806.139.jpg","contentUrl":"https://pnndigital.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/09/PNN-2026-09-28T175806.139.jpg"},"keywords":["Steamhouse India","Bulk Drug Park","Una"]}</script>

Every RGIPT student, he said, should aspire to become a leader of tomorrow.\r\nHe stressed that leadership begins with personal quality, discipline, integrity and a willingness to continuously learn. Students should develop the habit of recognising good qualities in others and learning from them while also building the confidence to think independently. The aim, he emphasised, should not be to produce followers, but young people who can take responsibility, lead teams, create solutions and contribute positively to society and industry.\r\nThe Director also highlighted the need for RGIPT to broaden its academic and industry connect. While the Institute has built a strong identity in petroleum and chemical engineering, the changing technology landscape calls for deeper engagement with electrical and electronics engineering, computer science, digital technologies and leading multinational companies. Such connections, he noted, can expand students’ exposure to emerging technologies, interdisciplinary work and new career opportunities.\r\nFrom Automation to AI: Redefining Human Capability\r\nChief Guest Mr. Kenneth Lean, CEO &amp;amp; ED, Cognitive Prism, traced the evolution from machines and industrial automation to artificial intelligence. He noted that automation has changed the nature of work rather than simply eliminating the need for people. As machines increasingly perform repetitive tasks, human roles have progressively moved towards designing, programming, improving and managing such systems.\r\nHe posed an important question for education: as machines become capable of performing more tasks traditionally taught to people, what should education prepare students for? His message was that future-ready education must go beyond learning how to use AI tools. Students need to identify meaningful problems, ask the right questions, think critically, design solutions, exercise judgement and work effectively with intelligent technologies.\r\nWith information now readily available through digital platforms and AI systems, knowing information alone is becoming less important than knowing how to evaluate and use it. Mr. Lean emphasised curiosity and questioning—asking “Why?”, “Why not?” and “Could I be wrong?”—as important habits for deeper thinking.\r\nAdaptability and Continuous Learning\r\nDr. Ramesh Singh, Senior Principal Manager, TATA Elxsi, emphasised adaptability, innovation and continuous learning. He observed that individuals and organisations can become comfortable with familiar ways of working even as external conditions change. For students and professionals, remaining relevant therefore requires understanding where their chosen field is heading and continuously aligning their skills with emerging requirements.\r\nDr. Singh also highlighted the growing integration of technology and management. Future professionals will need to understand not only technology, but also people, organisations and the environment in which technology is applied.\r\nBuilding a Stronger Education–Industry Connect\r\nA central message emerging from the Conclave was the need for continuous interaction between educational institutions and industry. As industry requirements change, academic programmes, curricula and learning approaches must evolve accordingly. Engagement with industry can help students understand emerging technologies, workplace expectations and the skills required for new roles.\r\nFor RGIPT, this industry connect is particularly relevant as the Institute expands beyond its established strengths in petroleum and chemical engineering towards a wider technology ecosystem. Stronger engagement with electrical and electronics, computer science, digital technology and multinational companies can help create opportunities for interdisciplinary learning, industry exposure, internships, projects and future employment.\r\nEntrepreneurship and the Future of Work\r\nThe panel discussions brought these themes into a practical context through the speakers’ entrepreneurial and professional experiences. Students engaged with questions related to entrepreneurship, funding, business potential, skills, temperament and self-discovery.\r\nPanelists encouraged students to identify genuine problems, recognise their strengths, take calculated risks and develop resilience. The discussions on AI considered how software development and other roles may change, which tasks may be automated or transformed, and how new careers and business opportunities may emerge.\r\nStudents were encouraged to look beyond conventional career paths and develop a problem-solving and entrepreneurial mindset by combining domain expertise, creativity, technology and continuous learning.\r\nPreparing RGIPT Students for Tomorrow\r\nThe HR Conclave highlighted that the future of work is not simply about machines replacing people. It is about the changing relationship between people, technology, organisations and society—and about preparing individuals to make meaningful contributions in that environment.\r\nThe discussions reinforced the importance of curiosity, judgement, communication, collaboration, adaptability, resilience, self-awareness and continuous learning. For RGIPT, these capabilities complement its technical foundation and support the Institute’s broader objective of preparing students to take leadership roles in an increasingly interconnected technology and industry landscape.\r\nThe Conclave concluded with a message of confidence and action for the young generation:\r\n“I can do. I will do.”\r\nGuests and Speakers\r\nChief Guest: Mr. Kenneth Lean, CEO &amp;amp; ED, Cognitive Prism\r\nGuest of Honour: Dr. Ramesh Singh, Senior Principal Manager, TATA Elxsi\r\nCDC Chairperson: Prof. Jaya Srivastava, RGIPT Bengaluru Campus\r\nPanel 1: Mr. Sushil Kumar, Chief Manager (HR), HRRL; Mr. Deepak G, Lead Industrial Engineer &amp;amp; Operations Manager, Tata Semiconductor; Ms. Prachi Bansal, HR Manager, American India Foundation\r\nPanel 2: Mr. Pulakesh Sen, Founder &amp;amp; CEO, Unikul Solutions; Mr. Naveen Roy, Co-Founder &amp;amp; CEO, Canvas Workspace; Mr. Navnit, Founder &amp;amp; CEO, NAAVI; Mr. Adarsh H M, Co-Founder, Elcarreira Technologies; Mr. Vinay Annappa, Founder &amp;amp; CEO, Energy As Solution &amp;amp; Director, Magnus Copo\r\nIf you object to the content of this press release, please notify us at pr.error.rectification@gmail.com.

Liquide is at the forefront of this shift with LiMo, its AI-powered research assistant bringing institutional-grade market intelligence within reach of individual investors.\r\nLed by Liquide’s Founder &amp;amp; CEO Anuj Bajpai, the conclave featured a marquee leadership panel with Dale Vaz, Founder &amp;amp; CEO of SAHI; Nikhil Behl, Co-Founder &amp;amp; CEO of INDmoney Broking; and Devam Sardana, Business Head at Lemonn. The leaders discussed the future of Indian wealthtech and how AI is transforming research, execution and access to global markets, while enabling more informed investor decisions.\r\n“Technology can make traders faster, and AI can make them smarter, but communities make the journey better. That is the idea behind Traders Conclave. Markets will always change, and when they do, having a strategy matters more than having a prediction. At Liquide, our role is to support investors through research, technology and education, so that more people can participate in the markets with greater clarity and awareness,” said Anuj Bajpai, Founder &amp;amp; CEO of Liquide.\r\nFrom Predictions to Disciplined Decision-Making\r\nAcross sessions on trading strategies, derivatives, market volatility, asset allocation, risk management, investor behaviour and emerging asset classes, one idea repeatedly surfaced: better investing is less about predicting every market move and more about building disciplined decision-making systems.\r\nSpeakers discussed how AI, data and analytical tools can help investors process information faster, understand risk more clearly and apply greater structure to investment decisions—while keeping human judgement at the centre.\r\nThis shift from information access to decision intelligence is also shaping Liquide’s product direction as it builds technology spanning research, portfolio analytics, investment insights and investor education.\r\nA Growing Ecosystem Around the Indian Traders\r\nTraders Conclave 5.0 also brought together companies from across India’s fast-evolving investing ecosystem, including SAHI, FYERS and Motilal Oswal, alongside platforms such as Delta Exchange,Mudrexand Coinbase.\r\nProduct showcases and partner interactions allowed attendees to experience trading platforms, analytical tools and new technologies directly, connecting conversations on stage with practical applications across investing and trading.\r\nThe diversity of participating companies reflected how rapidly the boundaries of wealthtech are expanding—from traditional equities and derivatives to AI-led research, global markets, alternative assets and new investing infrastructure.\r\n1,500+ Paid Attendees: Community as a Distribution Advantage\r\nUnlike passive digital audiences, Traders Conclave is built around high-intent participation. More than 1,500 people bought paid passes to attend the Bengaluru edition, spending a full day learning, exchanging strategies and interacting with market practitioners and technology platforms.\r\nFor Liquide, the community represents more than an annual event. It forms part of a broader ecosystem connecting its technology, research, education and investor engagement.\r\nAbout Liquide\r\nLiquide Solutions is a SEBI-registered Research Analyst (Registration No. INH000009816) building an AI-powered stock research and trading platform for Indian investors. With 6 million+ downloads and $6 Million in assets under advisory, Liquide is building an AI-native wealth platform for India’s growing retail and mass-affluent retail trader base.\r\nAt the centre of the platform is LiMo, Liquide’s AI-powered investment research assistant, which works alongside portfolio analytics, expert-led research, curated investment strategies and investor education to help users understand markets and make more informed investment decisions.\r\nLiquide is building toward a future where sophisticated investment intelligence – historically available primarily to professional and institutional investors – becomes accessible to millions of individual investors through AI.\r\nFor more information, visit www.liquide.life or contact support@liquide.life.\r\nIf you object to the content of this press release, please notify us at pr.error.rectification@gmail.com.

The film also brings together perspectives from lawyers, journalists and others who witnessed the circumstances surrounding the subject, raised questions and sought to draw greater attention to what had happened.\r\nOver nearly two years, the makers undertook extensive research, studying available documents, accounts and differing perspectives. During this period, they also interacted with administrative officials, journalists, lawyers, respected personalities and individuals closely familiar with the subject.\r\nRather than presenting the story solely as an account of an incident or a social issue, Sui - Maqboolpura Files explores the people, relationships, choices and circumstances surrounding it. The research has been woven into an emotional cinematic narrative, with the makers seeking to retain the human depth and sensitivity associated with the subject.\r\nThe makers have deliberately kept several details of the storyline and key characters under wraps at this stage. Kiran Shergill plays a prominent character at the centre of an important emotional and narrative journey, while the identities and roles of several other characters will be revealed as the film progresses towards its release.\r\nThe film brings together an experienced creative and technical team. Suman Sahu serves as the Director of Photography, Sanjay Sankla as Editor, Tapish Soni as Production Designer and Nitasha Bhateja as Costume Designer. Abhilekh Lal is composing the Background Music. Trisha Studios is handling the film’s post-production, while Vikramjit Shergill is associated with the project as Executive Producer.\r\nPresented by Trisha Studios and produced by Tilok Kothari, Sui - Maqboolpura Files is currently progressing through its production and post-production phases.\r\nWith its research-driven foundation and focus on human stories that have received limited attention, Sui - Maqboolpura Files aims to bring a deeply rooted Punjabi story to the screen through a sensitive and engaging cinematic narrative.\r\nFurther announcements regarding the cast, storyline and release will be made in due course.\r\n‘Sui - Maqboolpura Files’ — Coming Soon.","articleSection":"Entertainment","datePublished":"2026-09-27T21:15:04+0530","dateModified":"2026-09-27T21:17:37+0530","inLanguage":"en-us","author":{"@type":"Person","name":"SCNWire","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com/user/scnwire"},"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Marudhara Bharti English","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com/uploads/logo/logo_6ab9270c36c334-01124948.png"}},"image":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEixmthiTgWGiXiu6GTJgSKN9fibU4N5Popp4bBdHWaWb2uWCsEfby7oPloBc8MN1-9ydW4SriYow9TqfwuINOF4Z7QCd46A20eOn3wTRI4ZNBCRuPmsqlCEPTnKmYpZEat4DpnMpDMPonyysoBwEo0ZkIMEy_qLPi1gvninPJzxlAURdEJ6mVg7j1br1PQ/w1600/Sui%20-%20Maqboolpura%20Files.webp","contentUrl":"https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEixmthiTgWGiXiu6GTJgSKN9fibU4N5Popp4bBdHWaWb2uWCsEfby7oPloBc8MN1-9ydW4SriYow9TqfwuINOF4Z7QCd46A20eOn3wTRI4ZNBCRuPmsqlCEPTnKmYpZEat4DpnMpDMPonyysoBwEo0ZkIMEy_qLPi1gvninPJzxlAURdEJ6mVg7j1br1PQ/w1600/Sui%20-%20Maqboolpura%20Files.webp"},"keywords":["Sui Maqboolpura Files","Trisha Studios","Punjabi film","Abhinav Thakur","Tilok Kothari","Kiran Shergill","Punjabi cinema"]}</script>

The film aims to bring his story, faith and cultural significance to the big screen for audiences across India and beyond.\r\nThe film is being produced by Tilok Kothari, whose decades-long personal devotion to Shri Ramdev Pir has been one of the key inspirations behind the project. For Kothari, the film represents the culmination of a deeply personal spiritual journey and a long-held desire to bring the story and legacy of Shri Ramdev Pir to a wider audience through cinema.\r\nFor the past 39 years, Kothari has undertaken regular padyatras to seek darshan and blessings of Shri Ramdev Pir. In addition, for the past 12 consecutive years, he has visited for darshan on every Dooj (दूज), the second lunar day of each fortnight in the Hindu calendar.\r\nThis longstanding tradition of faith and devotion eventually became the foundation for the film.\r\nThe project has been in development for nearly five years, during which the makers have undertaken extensive research into the life, times, locations, traditions and spiritual legacy of Shri Ramdev Pir. Members of the core production team have themselves participated in padyatras and travelled to locations associated with his life and legacy, gaining first-hand insight into the devotion, traditions and cultural landscape surrounding him.\r\nThe research has also drawn from published material, historical and cultural references, and traditional narratives and accounts, which have been studied and brought together to shape the film’s cinematic narrative.\r\nAfter years of research, development and preparation, ‘Krishna Avatar Shri Ramdev Pir’ is now gearing up to go on floors, marking an important milestone in the journey of the project.\r\nThe film will explore the story and spiritual world of Shri Ramdev Pir through a cinematic narrative centred on faith, devotion, spirituality, human emotion and the power of belief. Drawing from the traditions and reverence associated with Shri Ramdev Pir, the film seeks to capture both his enduring legacy and the timeless relationship between devotees and the divine.\r\nShri Ramdev Pir holds a particularly significant place in the cultural and spiritual traditions of Rajasthan and Gujarat, with a devoted following extending across several other parts of India and beyond. The film is therefore being envisioned for a pan-India audience, with the makers seeking to present his story and spiritual legacy through the scale, emotion and immersive experience of a feature film.\r\nPresented by Trisha Studios and produced by Tilok Kothari, ‘Krishna Avatar Shri Ramdev Pir’ is gearing up to go on floors soon. Further details regarding the cast, director and other key members of the production will be announced in due course.","articleSection":"Entertainment","datePublished":"2026-09-27T21:15:03+0530","dateModified":"2026-09-27T21:19:41+0530","inLanguage":"en-us","author":{"@type":"Person","name":"SCNWire","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com/user/scnwire"},"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Marudhara Bharti English","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com/uploads/logo/logo_6ab9270c36c334-01124948.png"}},"image":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgNa1_oLEkR_toFkQEFp2nKLBayXXhcxPyWVik0uQZp6IMlJXsKZ3xW_9QqARVfMcZhT_3h7kxpOaWTF9x20wOufPcHOhsg1d8UHIHt3E24CNznEt9cpXp2H0FozDMQkiUPqrcBSDtLFOZCtImhJpKyjjXHZcEuTz_pyITepYOVc5SZeiaJL8AvWkNkDhc/w1600/Krishna%20Avatar%20Shri%20Ramdev%20Pir.webp","contentUrl":"https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgNa1_oLEkR_toFkQEFp2nKLBayXXhcxPyWVik0uQZp6IMlJXsKZ3xW_9QqARVfMcZhT_3h7kxpOaWTF9x20wOufPcHOhsg1d8UHIHt3E24CNznEt9cpXp2H0FozDMQkiUPqrcBSDtLFOZCtImhJpKyjjXHZcEuTz_pyITepYOVc5SZeiaJL8AvWkNkDhc/w1600/Krishna%20Avatar%20Shri%20Ramdev%20Pir.webp"},"keywords":["Krishna Avatar Shri Ramdev Pir","Trisha Studios","Tilok Kothari","Ramdev Pir","Ramapir","devotional film","spiritual film","Indian cinema"]}</script>

But each has a connection to alumni of Prague Film School.\r\nCinematographer Jay Oza, who worked on Gully Boy, is among the school’s graduates, as is Shalini Usha Devi, a screenwriter on Soorarai Pottru. Ananya Rane has worked as an assistant director on Life of Pi and first assistant director on Lion, while writer-director Raam Reddy went from Thithi to The Fable, which premiered at the Berlin International Film Festival in 2024. Several Prague Film School alumni were also part of the team behind Anuja, which received an Academy Award nomination for Best Live Action Short Film in 2025.\r\nThe list reflects something broader than individual credits. Indian alumni of Prague Film School have built careers across directing, screenwriting, cinematography, acting, producing, camera departments and post-production, moving between Indian cinema and the international film circuit.\r\nAnd in 2026, that connection is becoming particularly visible.\r\nThree recent developments have brought another generation of Prague Film School alumni into focus. Writer-director Sailesh Rathnakumar’s debut feature Selvi is heading to the Busan International Film Festival for its world premiere. Harsh Vaibhav, who wrote and executive produced the folk-horror feature Bokshi, will see the film reach Indian cinemas in October after an international festival run. Meanwhile, actor Prashansa Sharma, who studied acting at Prague Film School, has appeared as Radhiya in Mirzapur: The Movie, which opened theatrically on September 4.\r\nTheir paths are very different, but that is precisely what makes the moment interesting. One alumnus is arriving at a major Asian festival with a debut feature, another is bringing a film home after travelling through the international festival circuit, and another has moved from screen-acting training into one of India’s best-known contemporary entertainment franchises.\r\nSailesh Rathnakumar Takes His Debut Feature to Busan\r\nOne of the latest milestones comes from writer-director and Prague Film School alumnus Sailesh Rathnakumar.\r\nHis debut feature, Selvi, starring National Award-winning actor Anjali Patil, has been selected for the Vision Asia section of the 31st Busan International Film Festival, where it is scheduled to have its world premiere. Prague Film School has also highlighted Rathnakumar and the selection among its major alumni achievements for 2026.","articleSection":"Entertainment","datePublished":"2026-09-26T18:27:39+0530","dateModified":"2026-09-27T21:14:33+0530","inLanguage":"en-us","author":{"@type":"Person","name":"Correspondent Desk","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com/user/marudharabharti"},"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Marudhara Bharti English","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com/uploads/logo/logo_6ab9270c36c334-01124948.png"}},"image":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEhBepmYe6WVdZKerv-uPemPBLYTYfvT1L4x7YMdVTpeNUJyM-cmAUFj1TOChocpeXuRMvY04sy68OT0w1LfIs19pZ9CxPsWejUULbvdHChUqfLEs2gsnsdKU9kdbmCvXKH6VKS-aDA7k_E0jHDd9qiTOVLmKjFBqZ-AKeyenSHwV9tu4tJjlOMYMNk0do9V=w1600","contentUrl":"https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEhBepmYe6WVdZKerv-uPemPBLYTYfvT1L4x7YMdVTpeNUJyM-cmAUFj1TOChocpeXuRMvY04sy68OT0w1LfIs19pZ9CxPsWejUULbvdHChUqfLEs2gsnsdKU9kdbmCvXKH6VKS-aDA7k_E0jHDd9qiTOVLmKjFBqZ-AKeyenSHwV9tu4tJjlOMYMNk0do9V=w1600"},"keywords":["From","Busan","Indian","Theatres:","Prague","Film","School","Alumni","Mark","Breakthrough","Year","Across","Global","Cinema"]}</script>

Trust is not something we ask for; it is something we work to earn with every family we serve. Our presence across these first eight cities is an endeavour to make access to the right mobility solutions personal and reassuring for families and caregivers. We want to ensure that everyone walking into our store feels heard, understood and cared for. They must walk out with the confidence of having made the right choice for their loved one.”\r\nThe launch of Care Premier outlets marks an important step in Hero EcoMed’s efforts to strengthen direct customer engagement and its offline retail presence, bringing its philosophy of Built on Trust closer to the families who rely on it.

Mr. Ashish Udani, an experienced Spanish Interpreter and Translator based in India, has developed a specialized professional practice supporting pharmaceutical, biotechnology, healthcare, medical device, and blood plasma-derived product companies working with Spanish-speaking markets.\r\nWith extensive experience in pharmaceutical terminology, GMP requirements, regulatory inspections, manufacturing processes, quality systems, technical documentation, and Latin American regulatory environments, Mr. Udani provides specialized Spanish interpretation and translation support to Indian manufacturers, international auditors, regulatory professionals, and pharmaceutical companies.\r\nHis experience extends beyond conventional pharmaceutical manufacturing and includes biotechnology plants and facilities involved in blood plasma-derived products, where technical accuracy and clear communication are particularly important during regulatory inspections and quality discussions.\r\nSpecialized Spanish Interpreter for Pharmaceutical and Biotechnology Audits\r\nPharmaceutical and biotechnology audits require much more than general language interpretation. They involve complex technical terminology, manufacturing processes, quality systems, validation, qualification, documentation, regulatory requirements, and inspection procedures.\r\nMr. Ashish Udani provides professional Spanish interpretation for:\r\n\r\nGMP and regulatory inspections\r\nCOFEPRIS and DIGEMID audits\r\nPharmaceutical manufacturing plant inspections\r\nBiotechnology plant inspections\r\nBlood plasma-derived product manufacturing audits\r\nAPI and formulation plant audits\r\nQuality assurance and quality control discussions\r\nValidation and qualification discussions\r\nTechnical meetings and plant visits\r\nSupplier and customer audits\r\nDocumentation reviews\r\nVirtual and on-site inspections\r\nBusiness meetings with Spanish-speaking pharmaceutical companies\r\n\r\nHis role is to facilitate clear and technically accurate communication between Indian manufacturing teams and Spanish-speaking auditors, inspectors, regulatory professionals, customers, and business partners.\r\nExperience Supporting COFEPRIS and DIGEMID Audits\r\nMr. Udani has developed extensive experience supporting audits involving Latin American pharmaceutical regulatory authorities, particularly COFEPRIS (Mexico) and DIGEMID (Peru).\r\nHe has participated in 100+ COFEPRIS-related audits and regulatory inspection assignments, covering pharmaceutical and biotechnology manufacturing environments, including facilities associated with blood plasma-derived products and other high-risk pharmaceutical manufacturing operations.\r\nHis audit experience includes discussions involving areas such as:\r\n\r\nGood Manufacturing Practices (GMP)\r\nQuality Management Systems\r\nValidation and qualification\r\nValidated State\r\nAnnual Product Quality Review (APQR)\r\nRisk analysis and risk management\r\nManufacturing processes\r\nQuality Control and Quality Assurance\r\nSupplier qualification\r\nTechnical documentation\r\nRegulatory compliance\r\nICH and WHO-related requirements\r\nAPI and finished pharmaceutical products\r\nBiotechnology manufacturing processes\r\nBlood plasma-derived products\r\n\r\nThrough his specialized interpretation support, Mr. Udani helps Indian pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies communicate technical information accurately during inspections conducted by Spanish-speaking regulatory authorities and international auditors.\r\nSpecialized Experience in Biotechnology and Blood Plasma-Derived Products\r\nOne of the distinctive areas of Mr. Udani’s professional experience is his exposure to biotechnology manufacturing facilities and blood plasma-derived products.\r\nManufacturing and regulatory discussions in this sector can involve highly specialized terminology relating to raw materials, plasma-derived products, manufacturing controls, quality systems, validation, testing, traceability, documentation, and regulatory compliance.\r\nHis experience interpreting technical discussions in these environments enables him to support communication between Indian biotechnology and pharmaceutical manufacturers and Spanish-speaking regulatory professionals.\r\nThis specialized exposure is particularly relevant for companies involved in international inspections, regulatory registrations, supplier qualification, technical discussions, and Latin American market expansion.\r\nTechnical Spanish Translation for Pharmaceutical and Biotechnology Documentation\r\nIn addition to real-time interpretation, Mr. Ashish Udani provides Spanish translation services for technical, pharmaceutical, biotechnology, regulatory, and quality-related documentation.\r\nHis translation services may include:\r\n\r\nSite Master Files\r\nValidation Master Plans\r\nStandard Operating Procedures (SOPs)\r\nQuality Manuals\r\nProduct Dossiers\r\nRegulatory Submissions\r\nAudit Reports\r\nTechnical Reports\r\nManufacturing Documents\r\nQuality Control Documents\r\nQuality Assurance Documents\r\nValidation and Qualification Documents\r\nRisk Assessment Documents\r\nPharmaceutical and biotechnology technical documentation\r\n\r\nThe focus is on maintaining technical accuracy, terminology consistency, document integrity, and professional presentation in Spanish.\r\nSupporting International Pharmaceutical Inspections\r\nDuring an international regulatory inspection, communication must be precise. Questions from auditors can involve highly technical subjects, and responses may require immediate interpretation between Spanish and English.\r\nMr. Udani provides real-time interpretation during:\r\nPre-audit meetings → Regulatory inspections → Plant tours → Technical discussions → Quality meetings → Documentation reviews → Auditor responses → Closing meetings\r\nHis specialized understanding of pharmaceutical terminology allows him to interpret technical discussions in context rather than relying solely on general-language translation.\r\nConnecting Indian Pharmaceutical Companies with Latin American Markets\r\nIndia is one of the world’s major pharmaceutical manufacturing and export hubs, while Latin America represents an important international market for Indian pharmaceutical manufacturers.\r\nMr. Udani supports Indian companies communicating with Spanish-speaking markets in Mexico, Peru, Spain, and other Spanish-speaking countries, providing language support for regulatory inspections, customer meetings, supplier audits, technical discussions, and international business development.\r\nHis services help companies communicate more effectively with Spanish-speaking customers, auditors, regulatory professionals, distributors, and business partners.\r\nIndustries and Sectors Served\r\nMr. Udani’s professional experience includes language and technical communication support across several sectors, with particular specialization in:\r\n\r\nPharmaceutical Manufacturing\r\nBiotechnology\r\nBlood Plasma-Derived Products\r\nAPI Manufacturing\r\nFinished Pharmaceutical Products\r\nMedical Devices\r\nHealthcare\r\nChemicals\r\nCeramics\r\nTextiles\r\nBrass Components\r\nIndustrial Manufacturing\r\n\r\nHis experience across these technical sectors enables him to adapt his interpretation and translation services to specialized business and regulatory environments.\r\nWhy Pharmaceutical and Biotechnology Companies Work with Mr. Ashish Udani\r\nMr. Udani combines professional Spanish language expertise with practical exposure to pharmaceutical manufacturing and regulatory audit environments.\r\nHis key areas of specialization include:\r\n\r\n100+ COFEPRIS-related audit assignments\r\nExperience supporting DIGEMID audits\r\nPharmaceutical GMP audit interpretation\r\nBiotechnology plant interpretation\r\nBlood plasma-derived product audit exposure\r\nSpecialized pharmaceutical terminology\r\nRegulatory and technical document translation\r\nReal-time Spanish interpretation during inspections\r\nVirtual and on-site interpretation\r\nTechnical meetings and plant visits\r\nCommunication between Indian manufacturers and Spanish-speaking regulatory professionals\r\nLatin American pharmaceutical market support\r\n\r\nA Specialized Language Partner for International Regulatory Communication\r\nIn pharmaceutical and biotechnology manufacturing, language is closely connected with technical accuracy and regulatory communication. A misunderstanding during an inspection can affect how technical information is presented, discussed, or documented.\r\nMr. Ashish Udani provides specialized Spanish interpretation and translation support designed specifically for these demanding environments.\r\nWith experience across pharmaceutical manufacturing, biotechnology, blood plasma-derived products, medical devices, and regulatory audits, he continues to support Indian companies working with Spanish-speaking regulatory authorities, pharmaceutical companies, customers, and business partners.\r\nHis work represents a specialized combination of Spanish language expertise, pharmaceutical terminology, regulatory audit exposure, and international business communication, helping Indian companies strengthen their communication with Spanish-speaking markets.\r\nContact Information\r\nAshish Udani\r\nISO 9001:2015 Certified Translator\r\nSpanish Interpreter | Pharmaceutical &amp;amp; Biotechnology Audit Specialist | LATAM Business Development Consultant\r\nPhone / WhatsApp: +91 98251 65262\r\nEmail: translator.ashish@gmail.com\r\nWebsite: https://spanishtranslator.in\r\nSocial Media:\r\nInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/traductorindia\r\nLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/ashish-udani-a816b498/\r\nFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/spanishtranslatorinmumbai\r\nSpecialized Services:\r\nReal-time Spanish interpretation for pharmaceutical and biotechnology audits, GMP inspections, regulatory meetings, conferences, technical meetings, plant visits, and virtual inspections.\r\nSpecialized regulatory support: COFEPRIS (Mexico) and DIGEMID (Peru), including pharmaceutical, biotechnology, and blood plasma-derived product manufacturing environments.\r\nIf you object to the content of this press release, please notify us at pr.error.rectification@gmail.com.

Aadhaar OTP failures, interrupted Video KYC sessions, mismatched personal details and location-related errors are among the problems that can prevent an application from being completed.\r\nWhy Does Online Bank Account Opening Fail?\r\nAn application to open a savings account online usually involves several verification stages. These can include entering personal information, verifying a mobile number, completing Aadhaar-based authentication and undergoing Video KYC.\r\nA failure at any stage can stop the application from progressing.\r\nCommon causes include:\r\n\r\nAadhaar details not matching the application\r\nOTP not being received or verified\r\nMobile number not being linked appropriately with Aadhaar\r\nPoor internet connectivity\r\nCamera or microphone permission problems\r\nInterrupted Video KYC\r\nName or date-of-birth mismatch\r\nUnsupported location\r\nExpired or invalid documents\r\nTechnical errors on the bank’s platform\r\n\r\nIf you cannot open bank account online after several attempts, repeating the same process without identifying the failure point may not resolve the problem.\r\nHow to Fix an Aadhaar Mobile OTP Failure?\r\nAadhaar authentication is commonly used during digital KYC for a savings account. If the OTP does not arrive or cannot be verified, first check whether the mobile number associated with your Aadhaar is active and accessible.\r\nYou should also check:\r\n\r\nWhether your phone has adequate network connectivity.\r\nWhether SMS messages are being received normally.\r\nWhether the OTP has expired before being entered.\r\nWhether you have requested multiple OTPs and are using the latest one.\r\nWhether the personal information entered in the application matches your KYC details.\r\n\r\nIf the problem continues, avoid repeatedly requesting OTPs within a short period. Temporary restrictions or technical issues can sometimes affect authentication.\r\nIf Aadhaar authentication remains unsuccessful, contact the bank through its official customer-support channel and ask whether another KYC route is available for the savings account application.\r\nWhat If Video KYC Keeps Getting Rejected?\r\nVideo KYC is an important stage when you open bank account online, because the bank needs to verify your identity remotely.\r\nRepeated rejection can occur because the verification system or representative cannot satisfactorily confirm your identity. Common reasons include poor lighting, an unclear camera image, document visibility problems or discrepancies between your application and KYC documents.\r\nBefore attempting Video KYC again:\r\n\r\nSit in a well-lit location.\r\nKeep your face clearly visible.\r\nClean the camera lens.\r\nUse a stable internet connection.\r\nAllow camera and microphone permissions.\r\nKeep the required original documents nearby.\r\nRemove anything that obscures your face.\r\nMake sure your personal information is accurate.\r\n\r\nDo not assume that repeatedly starting another Video KYC session will solve the problem. If the same error appears every time, identify the specific rejection reason first.\r\nWhy Is My Name Mismatched During Verification?\r\nA name mismatch can prevent you from completing a savings account application because the information entered online may not correspond with your KYC records.\r\nEven relatively small differences can create problems. For example, your application might contain a middle name that does not appear on your identity document, or the order of your names may differ between records.\r\nBefore trying to open bank account online again, compare the following carefully:\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nInformation\r\nWhat to check\r\n\r\n\r\nFull name\r\nMatch the relevant KYC document\r\n\r\n\r\nDate of birth\r\nEnsure the date is identical\r\n\r\n\r\nAddress\r\nCheck spelling and applicable details\r\n\r\n\r\nPAN details\r\nEnsure the information corresponds with your records\r\n\r\n\r\nAadhaar details\r\nCheck the information used for authentication\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nIf your official documents themselves contain inconsistent information, you may need to have the relevant record corrected before completing digital KYC.\r\nWhat Does a Location Spoofing Error Mean?\r\nA location-related error can appear when a bank’s digital account-opening system cannot establish that the application is being made from an eligible location.\r\nWhen you try to open bank account online, the application may use device permissions or other technical checks to establish location eligibility. Using a VPN, mock-location application or other location-altering software can interfere with these checks.\r\nIf you receive a location spoofing or location verification error while opening a savings account, try the following:\r\n\r\nDisable any VPN.\r\nTurn off mock-location settings.\r\nEnable location services.\r\nGive the banking application the required location permission.\r\nUse the bank’s official application or website.\r\nRestart the device before trying again.\r\nEnsure that you are physically in a location permitted for digital account opening.\r\n\r\nAvoid using software designed to disguise your actual location. Apart from potentially preventing verification, doing so can trigger additional security checks.\r\nWhat If the Camera or Microphone Does Not Work?\r\nTechnical problems can interrupt Video KYC when you open bank account online.\r\nA camera that works perfectly in a normal video call can still fail if the browser or banking application has not been granted the required permissions.\r\nBefore restarting the savings account application, check:\r\n\r\nCamera permissions\r\nMicrophone permissions\r\nBrowser permissions, if using a website\r\nInternet connection\r\nDevice battery\r\nCamera lens\r\nOperating-system updates\r\nWhether another application is using the camera\r\n\r\nIf possible, use a device that meets the bank’s stated technical requirements. Switching from an unreliable connection or unsupported browser can resolve problems without requiring a new application.\r\nWhat Should You Do If the Application Gets Stuck?\r\nSometimes the issue is not your KYC information at all. A technical error can cause an online savings account application to become stuck between two stages.\r\nIf this happens, note exactly where the process stopped. For example, record whether the problem occurred during Aadhaar authentication, document submission, Video KYC or final account activation.\r\nThen:\r\n\r\nClose and reopen the official banking application.\r\nCheck your internet connection.\r\nUpdate the application if an update is available.\r\nClear temporary browser data if you are using a website.\r\nTry again after a reasonable interval.\r\nContact customer support if the application remains stuck.\r\n\r\nDo not submit multiple fresh applications immediately. Duplicate applications can create additional confusion when you are trying to open bank account online.\r\nHow Can You Prevent Digital Account-Opening Problems?\r\nA little preparation can make applying for a savings account considerably smoother.\r\nBefore beginning the process:\r\n\r\nKeep your PAN and required KYC documents ready.\r\nEnsure your Aadhaar-linked mobile number is accessible.\r\nCheck that your personal details are accurate.\r\nUse a reliable internet connection.\r\nEnable the required device permissions.\r\nKeep your camera and microphone functional.\r\nDisable VPN or mock-location tools.\r\nComplete Video KYC in a quiet, well-lit environment.\r\nUse only the bank’s official digital platform.\r\n\r\nIn Conclusion: Getting Your Online Account Application Back on Track\r\nAn unsuccessful digital application does not necessarily mean that you cannot open a savings account. Most failures occur at identifiable verification or technical stages, giving you a specific problem to resolve.\r\nIf you still cannot open bank account online after correcting these issues, the bank’s customer-support team can determine whether your application requires further verification or whether another account-opening route is available.\r\nIf you object to the content of this press release, please notify us at pr.error.rectification@gmail.com.

Hyderabad is hosting IREC 2026 from September 25–27, bringing together more than 2,000 delegates from 35+ countries, including developers, institutional investors, realtors, policymakers, technology leaders and global property professionals.\r\nThe three-day gathering brings the Global Conference, Luxury Property Expo and Innovation Showcase together on one platform, with the prestigious India Housing Report – September 2026, prepared by NAR and CRE Matrix, also launched at the event. The conference was inaugurated by Mr. Majid Saqer Al Marri, Real Estate Registration &amp;amp; Services, Dubai Land Department, while Mr. Kevin Brown, President, National Association of REALTORS® (NAR), inaugurated the IREC Luxury Property Expo.\r\nPan-India Housing Report released at IREC 2026\r\nA key highlight of the inaugural day was the launch of the India Housing Report – September 2026, prepared by NAR and CRE Matrix, offering a pan-India assessment of residential housing trends based on H1 2026 data. Below are the highlights of the report findings:\r\nKey highlights from the report:\r\n\r\n₹3.63 lakh crore — value of primary housing sales across Pan-India Tier-1 cities in H1 2026, broadly flat against the H1 2025 record.\r\n2.58 lakh units — primary housing units sold, down around 2% year-on-year, while launches increased around 7% to 2.98 lakh units.\r\nMMR emerged as India’s largest housing market, accounting for 26% of Pan-India housing value, ahead of NCR at 19%, with approximately ₹93,800 crore in primary housing sales.\r\nNavi Mumbai + Raigad recorded 29% value growth, the fastest among the markets covered, with volumes rising around 20%.\r\nBengaluru recorded 25% value growth, the strongest among the large markets, taking its share of national housing value to approximately 17%.\r\n\r\nThese issues will form the core of discussions at IREC 2026. The conference is being hosted by the Hyderabad Realtors Association (HRA), with the National Association of REALTORS® – India (NAR-India) as strategic partner. The programme will examine institutional investment, changing buyer behaviour, branded residences, holiday homes, affordable housing, real estate tokenisation, cross-border transactions and the growing influence of PropTech, AI, data and DeepTech.\r\nInternational participation will bring perspectives from markets including the US, Dubai, Philippines, Georgia, Canada, Japan, Mongolia, China, Korea, Taiwan, Cambodia, Indonesia and Vietnam, among others. The programme includes discussions on taking Indian real estate to global markets and building a global real estate marketplace.\r\nFor Hyderabad, the conference comes at a time when the city is itself becoming an important part of India’s evolving real estate story. The discussions will provide an opportunity to examine the city’s development in the context of international investment, urbanisation and technology-led change.\r\nTalking at the inauguration, Mr. Sumanth Reddy, Chairman, NAR-India, said “The real estate industry is changing faster than the traditional transaction cycle. Buyers are becoming more informed, capital is becoming more global and technology is changing how business gets done. IREC gives us a chance to have an honest conversation about these changes and what they mean for the industry in India.”\r\nMr. Sreedhar Reddy, Past President, Hyderabad Realtors Association, added, “For us, hosting IREC in Hyderabad is not simply about bringing an international event to the city. It is about putting Hyderabad into a larger global conversation. We want the discussions here to be practical, relevant and useful to people working in real estate across markets.”\r\nMr. Shailender Singh, Chairman, IREC 2026, said, “The questions facing real estate today are very different from a few years ago. People are looking at homes differently, investors are looking across borders and technology is creating new possibilities as well as new questions. IREC is bringing these conversations into one room, with voices from India and international markets.”\r\nThe conference will also feature the IREC Luxury Property Expo and Innovation Showcase, alongside the main conference programme, with sessions covering Dubai’s real estate playbook, institutional investment, India’s growth opportunities, affordable housing, real estate tokenisation, branded residences, urban development and the future of PropTech and DeepTech.\r\nIREC INDIA 2026 | AT A GLANCE\r\n\r\nDates: September 25–27, 2026\r\nVenue: HITEX, Hyderabad\r\nExpected participation: 2,000+ delegates\r\nInternational participation: 35+ countries\r\nHost: Hyderabad Realtors Association\r\nStrategic Partner: National Association of REALTORS® – India\r\nKey areas: Global capital, institutional investment, changing buyer behaviour, branded residences, affordable housing, cross-border real estate, tokenisation, PropTech, AI and DeepTech\r\n\r\nIf you object to the content of this press release, please notify us at pr.error.rectification@gmail.com.

The brand has initiated its national expansion under its All-India Franchise Model, marking a new phase in its retail journey.The expansion is designed to take the brand’s distinctive silver retail experience to customers in more cities while creating opportunities for franchise partners across India. With its focus on hallmark silver jewellery and a wider collection of silver products, Banwarilal Chandiwala is positioning itself around an organised, contemporary approach to silver retail.Three Franchises Finalised, With More Cities IdentifiedA key highlight of this expansion is that three franchises have already been finalised. At the same time, major cities across Bihar, including Boring Road in Patna, Gaya, Muzaffarpur, Bhagalpur, Darbhanga, Purnia, Ara, Begusarai, Katihar, Munger, Chhapra and Samastipur, along with other prominent cities across India, have been identified for franchise expansion.The proposed expansion reflects the brand’s intention to build a wider retail network while retaining the identity and product focus that originated in Bihar. The franchise model is expected to help bring Banwarilal Chandiwala’s silver jewellery and premium silver offerings closer to customers in different markets.“Jewellery on Wheels” — Taking Luxury Retail on the RoadAs part of this expansion and innovation journey, the brand has also launched “Jewellery on Wheels.” The concept introduces a mobile showroom format, allowing customers to experience jewellery shopping beyond a conventional fixed retail location.“Bihar creates a world-first — India’s first luxury jewellery experience on wheels.”Customers will now be able to enjoy a unique shopping experience featuring silver jewellery and premium silver products not only at the grand Banwarilal Chandiwala mall but also aboard the Jewellery on Wheels bus. The concept brings together Jewellery, Mobility, and Luxury Retail, creating a new-age retail experience.Currently, the Jewellery on Wheels concept is operational in Patna, while the brand has also begun offering franchise opportunities. As the franchise network grows, the concept is intended to support the brand’s wider expansion and potentially bring the mobile jewellery experience to more cities across India.A Complete Silver Retail ExperienceThe Banwarilal Chandiwala mall offers an extensive collection of premium silver products, including hallmark silver jewellery, artefacts, gifting items, decorative pieces and silver furniture.

With these additions, the company’s total installed capacity has crossed 36,600 tonnes per year, compared with 29,900 tonnes at the end of FY26.\r\nThe capacity was added in three phases between June and August 2026, with an initial addition of around 2,550 tonnes per annum at the company’s Khalapur facility, followed by further additions of approximately 3,550 tonnes and 600 tonnes per annum, respectively. The capacity expansion is being funded through a combination of internal accruals and bank borrowings, reflecting the company’s measured approach towards scaling its manufacturing footprint.\r\nThe expansion further strengthens the company’s manufacturing capabilities across key end-user segments, including chemicals, agrochemicals, pharmaceuticals, paints and healthcare-related products, positioning it to address evolving customer requirements and growing market opportunities.\r\nPreparing Capacity Ahead Of Demand\r\nWhile the company operated at around 64% capacity utilisation during FY26, management believes in creating capacity ahead of customer requirements to ensure timely fulfilment of demand and maintain readiness for emerging market opportunities.\r\nSpeaking about the expansion, Mr. Manish Dedhia, Managing Director, Mitsu Chem Plast Limited, said:\r\n“Our capacity expansion is guided by the need to align market opportunities, customer requirements and capacity creation. We are focused on building capacity ahead of demand to ensure we are well positioned to cater to emerging orders, while maintaining a disciplined approach towards capital expenditure and sustainable growth.”\r\nMr. Sanjay Dedhia, Executive – Vice Chairman, Mitsu Chem Plast Limited, added:\r\n“We are adding capacity with a long-term view, supported by sustained demand across our key markets. As we expand, our focus remains on delivering durable and reliable products that enable us to meet evolving customer requirements and build strong, long-term customer relationships.”\r\nHealthcare-Led Export Growth\r\nMitsu Chem Plast remains focused on the Indian market while building its international presence, with exports currently contributing around 2% of revenue across 17 countries. The company sees healthcare as a key opportunity to expand exports, supported by its growing portfolio of healthcare and hospital furniture-related products.\r\nHealthcare, furniture and other related products currently contribute around 19.8% of the business, with the company increasingly exploring international healthcare markets. Its global supplier partnership with ArjoHuntleigh Polska, part of the Arjo Group, further strengthens its focus on expanding healthcare-led exports.\r\nStrong Improvement In Profitability\r\nThe company’s recent financial performance reflects a marked improvement in profitability, supported by better product margins, favourable product mix and enhanced operational efficiency.\r\nFor the June 2026 quarter, standalone Total Income stood at ₹9,532.78 Lakhs, up 11.62% year-on-year. EBITDA increased to ₹1,549.48 Lakhs from ₹500.64 Lakhs in Q1 FY26, while Net Profit rose to ₹873.83 Lakhs from ₹131.16 Lakhs.\r\nThe improvement was driven by better product margins and continued operational efficiency, resulting in stronger EBITDA and bottom-line performance.\r\nIBC Business To Add Another Growth Avenue\r\nThe company is developing a fully automated Intermediate Bulk Container (IBC) manufacturing facility, integrating manufacturing and assembly under one roof. The IBC business is expected to complement Mitsu Chem Plast’s existing product portfolio, expand its customer base and address new applications, creating an additional avenue for long-term growth.\r\nWorking Towards The ₹1,000 Cr Revenue Target\r\nMitsu Chem Plast has set a long-term objective of reaching annual revenue of ₹1,000 Cr by FY28.\r\nThe company acknowledges that the target requires a significant increase in business scale. Management believes that the recently added manufacturing capacity, the upcoming IBC business and the growing contribution from healthcare-related products will support this journey.\r\nCommenting on the company’s growth plans, Mr. Manish Dedhia, Managing Director, Mitsu Chem Plast Limited, said:\r\n“We recognise that reaching ₹1,000 Cr of revenue by FY28 is an ambitious target. The capacity we have added, along with the upcoming IBC business and our focus on higher-value applications, is intended to create the foundation required to pursue this target. Our focus remains on building the business in a disciplined manner while improving the quality of our product mix.”\r\nWith additional manufacturing capacity already in place and new product opportunities being developed, Mitsu Chem Plast is positioning itself to serve growing demand across its core industrial markets while expanding into healthcare and other higher-value applications.\r\n","articleSection":"Business","datePublished":"2026-09-25T22:23:32+0530","dateModified":"2026-09-25T22:39:27+0530","inLanguage":"en-us","author":{"@type":"Person","name":"PNN","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com/user/pnnindia"},"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Marudhara Bharti English","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com/uploads/logo/logo_6ab9270c36c334-01124948.png"}},"image":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://pnndigital.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/09/PNN-2026-09-25T155552.925.jpg","contentUrl":"https://pnndigital.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/09/PNN-2026-09-25T155552.925.jpg"},"keywords":["Mitsu","Chem","Plast","Expands","Capacity","Over","20","Support","Rising","Demand","and","Long-Term","Growth"]}</script>

It enables centralized visibility into AI usage, cost optimization, access control and enhanced security, helping organizations use AI more efficiently and securely.\r\nBackground\r\nAs AI adoption rapidly expands across organizations, enterprises are accelerating efforts to embed AI agents and generative AI capabilities into business applications. At the same time, as the use of multiple AI providers and AI models grows, it becomes increasingly difficult to understand which models are being used, how much they cost, and whether appropriate governance and security are in place.\r\nAI requests also vary widely, from simple processing tasks to workloads that require advanced reasoning. Organizations therefore need a management platform that can optimize AI performance, reduce latency, streamline security operations and control AI-related costs.\r\nTo address these challenges, A10 AI Gateway consolidates AI usage across the organization into a single management platform, providing an environment in which enterprises can operate AI efficiently and securely.\r\nOverview\r\nA10 AI Gateway is an intelligent control plane that provides unified routing, cost management and governance across the AI agents, applications and large language models (LLMs) used by an organization.\r\nIt selects the appropriate AI model based on the content of each request and applicable usage policies, while centralizing visibility into AI usage and costs. This helps optimize performance, manage costs, strengthen security and implement governance, while giving developers and users access to the right AI models for their needs.\r\nKey Features\r\nIdentity-based AI Access Synchronizes with existing local directory systems to apply access and routing policies by user or group. For example, organizations can configure different AI models and usage policies for engineering and finance teams.\r\nSmart Routing Moving beyond static routing policies and simple request metering, A10 AI Gateway evaluates the complexity and type of each request. It automatically routes simple tasks to more cost-efficient models and tasks requiring advanced reasoning to more capable models.\r\nCentralized Traffic and Cost Management\r\nAs a central control plane, A10 AI Gateway provides real-time, per-request cost tracking in dollars; per-model and per-team token budget management with hard limits and soft-limit alerts; and usage controls (TPM/RPM) by key or team. This centralizes visibility into AI usage and costs while supporting effective governance.\r\nIntegration with A10’s AI Security Portfolio\r\nA10 AI Gateway complements A10’s existing AI security portfolio, including TrojAI, A10 AI Firewall and ThreatX. It supports security across the full AI lifecycle, from pre-deployment testing and runtime protection to controls at the network and API layers.\r\nFlexible Deployment Within the Customer Environment\r\nA10 AI Gateway is available as standalone software or with integrated hardware and can run entirely within the customer’s own environment, including on-premises, private cloud and air-gapped environments. This enables organizations to maintain control over their models, data and policies while preserving data sovereignty – an advantage that cloud-hosted and edge-bound gateways cannot match.\r\nAvailability\r\nA10 AI Gateway is scheduled to become available in the fourth quarter of 2026.\r\nExecutive Comment\r\nDhrupad Trivedi, president and CEO of A10 Networks, said:\r\n“Enterprises are being asked to move fast on AI and stay in control at the same time. AI use is spreading faster than teams can discover, govern, or secure it, driving up cost and leaving no single place to set the rules. The A10 AI Gateway gives organizations one intelligent control plane to see how AI is being used, to govern who can access which models, and match every request to the right model at the right cost. Our integrated portfolio gives customers a complete, sovereign way to put AI to work at scale. That is how enterprises adopt AI with confidence instead of trading speed for control,”\r\nAbout A10 Networks\r\nA10 Networks (NYSE: ATEN) delivers secure application and network solutions designed to protect, optimize, and scale business-critical systems across on-premises, hybrid cloud, and edge environments. Our portfolio is designed to enable large enterprises, service providers, and cloud platforms worldwide to achieve performance, reliability, and protection against cyber threats, while preparing their networks for the demands of AI and next-generation applications.

For Amit Bohora, who co-founded MedAlliance and helped take SELUTION SLR from an early research concept to a globally commercialized therapy before the company was acquired by Cordis in October 2023 for USD 1.135 Billion, the approval is a personal milestone in a technology he spent over a decade building.\r\nIt has taken more than a decade, thousands of patients, and one of medtech’s biggest recent exits to get here. This week, it became history.\r\nA Milestone Years in the Making\r\nThe approval rests on the SELUTION4ISR trial, a multicenter, randomized study of more than 400 patients across 48 sites in the United States, Canada, Brazil and Europe, which met its primary endpoint of non-inferiority against standard-of-care treatment at 12 months. It adds to a clinical evidence base that now spans more than 5,000 patients worldwide — and lands just as Cordis confirms it has completed enrollment in a 960-patient U.S. trial evaluating the balloon for de novo lesions in small coronary vessels, setting up a second FDA filing to come.\r\nThe U.S. performs close to one million percutaneous coronary interventions a year, and roughly one in ten of those cases involves treating in-stent restenosis — an artery re-narrowing inside a previous stent. Until now, U.S. physicians reaching for a drug-coated balloon in these cases had only a paclitaxel-based option. SELUTION SLR changes that calculus, becoming the first sirolimus-based alternative available in the country.\r\n“This Is What We Set Out to Do”\r\nReflecting on the technology, Amit Bohora said:\r\n“When we set out to build SELUTION at MedAlliance, the goal was never simply to create another device – it was to give physicians a genuine, stentless alternative for patients living with coronary artery disease. Seeing the therapy now approved by the USFDA for in-stent restenosis, one of the toughest problems in interventional cardiology, is an incredibly proud moment. It validates years of research, clinical trial work, and the conviction that sustained sirolimus release, without a permanent implant, could change how physicians think about re-treating a narrowed artery.”\r\nMr. Bohora, who led MedAlliance’s clinical programs, regulatory approvals and global expansion during his time with the company – including building out R&amp;amp;D facilities in Switzerland and Singapore and manufacturing capability in the United States – added:\r\n“What began as a contrarian conviction that cardiology must break free from permanent metal – has earned the world’s most rigorous regulatory validation. U.S. FDA approval is not just a commercial win; it is a clinical victory for millions living with coronary artery disease.\r\nWhen we built MedAlliance, we aimed to prove that visionary entrepreneurship, rooted in deep science, can redefine global healthcare. Our USD 1.135Billion acquisition by Cordis amplified that mission. Seeing SELUTION SLR unlock the U.S. market proves that transformative Indian leadership and global innovation can forever change the paradigm of cardiovascular care.”\r\nClinical Perspective: Dr. Praveen Chandra, Principal Investigator, SELUTION First-in-Man Trial\r\n“Leading the First-in-Human clinical trial for SELUTION, I witnessed early on how sustained sirolimus delivery could fundamentally alter vascular healing without adding more metal. This FDA approval is a historic vindication of that science. It reflects Amit’s uncompromising dedication to translational clinical rigor, turning a bold idea into a therapy now transforming lives across the globe.”\r\nWhy This Matters\r\nSELUTION SLR is now the only sirolimus drug-eluting balloon on the U.S. market — a category the MedAlliance team, under Mr. Bohora’s leadership, effectively created years before the science was proven at this scale. Commercially available in more than 65 countries and used to treat over 250,000 patients worldwide, the device’s U.S. clearance under its current owner, Cordis, marks a milestone few medtech founders ever get to see: an invention they helped originate becoming standard of care in the world’s most demanding regulatory market.\r\nAbout Amit Bohora\r\nAmit Bohora is the co-founder of MedAlliance, the Swiss medical technology company that originally developed the SELUTION SLR Drug-Eluting Balloon. He led the company’s journey from early-stage research through worldwide commercialization – spearheading its clinical, regulatory and manufacturing expansion – until MedAlliance’s acquisition by Cordis (USA) in October 2023, in a transaction valued at USD 1.135 Billion. Mr. Bohora is not affiliated with Cordis and does not speak on the company’s behalf; this piece reflects his personal perspective as a cofounder on a technology he helped create.\r\nAbout SELUTION SLR DEB\r\nSELUTION SLR uses proprietary Sustained Limus Release (SLR) technology, originally developed by MedAlliance, to deliver a controlled release of sirolimus to the vessel wall over roughly 90 days, without leaving a permanent implant behind. With this approval, it becomes the first and only sirolimus drug-eluting balloon available in the U.S. market. SELUTION SLR is now owned and commercialized by Cordis.\r\n","articleSection":"Business","datePublished":"2026-09-25T22:23:31+0530","dateModified":"2026-09-25T22:36:39+0530","inLanguage":"en-us","author":{"@type":"Person","name":"PNN","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com/user/pnnindia"},"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Marudhara Bharti English","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com/uploads/logo/logo_6ab9270c36c334-01124948.png"}},"image":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://pnndigital.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/09/PNN-2026-09-25T163945.136.jpg","contentUrl":"https://pnndigital.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/09/PNN-2026-09-25T163945.136.jpg"},"keywords":["SELUTION","SLR™","DEB","Wins","FDA","Approval","for","In-Stent","Restenosis","–","Cofounder","Amit","Bohora","Calls","“A","Defining","Milestone","for","Stentless","Cardiac","Care”"]}</script>

The move comes after three years of investment in digital screens, premium advertising locations and transit properties.\r\nOn 12th June 2026, the Company’s Board approved the proposed migration, which is subject to shareholder and regulatory approvals. For the management, the proposed move reflects the progress made by the Company since its listing in 2023.\r\nFor the year ended 31st March 2026, Bright Outdoor Media reported Revenue from Operations of ₹153 Cr, Total Income of ₹155 Cr, EBITDA of ₹35 Cr and PAT of ₹24 Cr on a standalone basis. Revenue from Operations has increased from ₹92 Cr in FY23, the year of its listing. The Company had nil debt-to-equity at the end of FY26, with Return on Equity at 12.96% and Return on Capital Employed at 17.58%.\r\nIncreasing Focus on Digital Outdoor Advertising\r\nA key change in the Company’s business has been the growing contribution from digital LED screens. In FY26, static hoardings contributed ₹103 Cr, representing 67.34% of Revenue from Operations, while digital LED hoardings contributed ₹44.97 Cr, accounting for 29.39%.\r\nUnlike traditional static hoardings, digital screens can display advertisements from multiple brands at the same location. A typical digital screen runs a one-minute cycle with six ten-second advertising slots, giving advertisers greater flexibility and allowing the Company to generate higher revenue from selected locations.\r\nDuring FY26, Bright added 18 digital LED billboards, taking its total portfolio to 1,352 outdoor displays, comprising 952 static and 400 LED displays. In Mumbai, the Company owns more than 60 of the city’s 150-plus large-format LED billboards.\r\nThe Company’s strong presence in Mumbai remains an important part of its strategy, supported by continued activity in real estate, redevelopment and entertainment, which are among the major categories of advertisers using outdoor media.\r\nMr. Mukesh Sharma, Chief Executive Officer, Bright Outdoor Media Limited, said:\r\n“When we listed in 2023, our focus was clear — to invest in better locations and expand our digital screen network. We have stayed focused on that plan over the last three years. The proposed move to the main board is an important step for the Company, but our priority remains building a stronger business, improving our presence in key markets and creating long-term value for our stakeholders.”\r\nBuilding a Presence in Transit Advertising\r\nTransit advertising is another important area of expansion for Bright Outdoor Media.\r\nCIDCO Ltd awarded the Company exclusive 10-year advertising rights for Navi Mumbai Metro Line 1, covering all 11 stations and more than 85,000 sq. ft. of station premises. The Company has also installed road-facing digital screens on the metro pillars.\r\nWhile passenger traffic on the Navi Mumbai Metro is still developing, the Company expects the growth of the upcoming international airport and redevelopment activity around the metro corridor to support the long-term potential of the property.\r\nBright also has premium advertising inventory across railway over-bridges in Mumbai, including both static and digital formats.\r\nExpanding Beyond Outdoor Advertising\r\nThe Company has also expanded its offering through Bright 360°, which enables brands to access multiple advertising channels through a single platform.\r\nThe business covers radio, print, television, public relations, influencer marketing and on-ground activities, along with the Company’s own event properties. This allows Bright to work with clients across different media formats while building on its existing relationships with advertisers.\r\nIndia’s Outdoor Advertising Market Continues to Grow\r\nThe Indian out-of-home advertising market was valued at ₹4,835 Cr in 2025, compared with ₹4,650 Cr in 2024, registering 4% growth, according to the Pitch Madison Advertising Report 2026. The report identified out-of-home advertising as the only traditional advertising medium to grow in both absolute and relative terms during the period.\r\nThe broader Indian advertising market is projected at ₹1,74,605 Cr for 2026, highlighting the continued role of outdoor advertising within the country’s overall media industry.\r\nThe industry is also seeing a gradual shift towards better measurement of outdoor advertising. As more digital screens are installed, advertisers are increasingly looking for clearer information on audience reach and engagement. This could support the growth of digital outdoor advertising, particularly at locations with high traffic and longer customer dwell time.\r\nAt the same time, the pace of digital screen expansion depends on permissions from different municipal authorities, with regulations and approval timelines varying across locations.\r\nFocused Expansion Ahead\r\nGoing forward, Bright Outdoor Media plans to continue expanding its digital screen network, participate in new transit and airport advertising opportunities as contracts come up for bidding, and explore markets beyond the Mumbai Metropolitan Region where the business opportunity is attractive.\r\nWith nil debt at the end of FY26, the Company has financial flexibility to pursue these opportunities while maintaining a disciplined approach to expansion.\r\nMr. Mukesh Sharma, Chief Executive Officer, Bright Outdoor Media Limited, added:\r\n“Our approach to expansion is selective. We do not want to add screens simply to increase the number of assets. We look at the location, traffic and the advertising opportunity before making an investment. Going forward, we will continue to focus on locations where we see sustainable demand and attractive long-term potential.”\r\n","articleSection":"Business","datePublished":"2026-09-25T14:37:56+0530","dateModified":"2026-09-25T14:38:23+0530","inLanguage":"en-us","author":{"@type":"Person","name":"PNN","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com/user/pnnindia"},"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Marudhara Bharti English","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com/uploads/logo/logo_6ab9270c36c334-01124948.png"}},"image":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://pnndigital.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/09/PNN-2026-09-25T135825.170.jpg","contentUrl":"https://pnndigital.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/09/PNN-2026-09-25T135825.170.jpg"},"keywords":["Bright","Outdoor","Media","Readies","Main","Board","Migration","Digital","LED","Revenue","Scales"]}</script>

(“GIX”), has received a signed Statement of Work from IBM Cloud Inc for AI Infrastructure Design, Deployment and Support Services, at a fixed fee of US$15.5 million (approximately ₹147 crore).\r\nThe Statement of Work is issued under a Master Services Agreement between the two companies dated 21 August 2026. Work commenced on 24 September 2026, and fees are payable against five milestones running from project kick-off to production go-live.\r\nThe engagement GIX will deliver a scalable, secure, high-performance environment for the client’s AI and machinelearning workloads, covering model development, training, fine-tuning and inference.\r\nThe work spans four stages:\r\n• Design: assessment of AI workloads and existing infrastructure, followed by the high-level architecture and detailed design;\r\n• Build: GPU compute clusters, high-performance storage and networking, AI/ML platforms and Kubernetes-based orchestration, with model training and inference environments;\r\n• Secure and operate: identity and access controls, network segmentation, encryption, monitoring, backup and disaster recovery;\r\n• Validate and hand over: performance testing, documentation, knowledge transfer and production handover, followed by a stabilisation and support period.\r\nThe project runs to defined service levels, including infrastructure and GPU availability of at least 99.5 per cent, critical alerts within 15 minutes and response to critical incidents within 30 minutes.\r\nWhy it matters\r\nEnterprises are moving AI from pilots into production, and that shift depends on GPU infrastructure that is designed, secured and operated to production standards. This order places Blue Cloud at the centre of that work for a global technology client and strengthens the Company’s AI infrastructure business in the United States, its largest market.\r\nManagement comment\r\nTejesh Kumar Kodali, Group Chairman, Blue Cloud Softech Solutions Limited, said: “AI is moving out of the lab and into production, and that move runs on infrastructure. Winning this mandate from IBM Cloud within three months of GIX joining Blue Cloud shows that our US platform can compete for, and deliver, the most demanding AI infrastructure work. This is the high-value, repeatable business we set out to build when we brought GIX into the group.”\r\nVinod Babu Bollikonda, Managing Director and Group CEO, said: “Our teams have already mobilised. We will deliver against clear milestones and service levels, including 99.5 per cent availability, and we aim to earn a long-term relationship with the client that extends well beyond this engagement.”\r\nAbout Blue Cloud Softech Solutions Limited\r\nBlue Cloud Softech Solutions Limited is an AI-first technology company headquartered in Hyderabad, India, and listed on BSE (539607) and NSE (BLUECLOUDS).

Skinique, founded by aesthetic physician Dr. Shallu Kapiil, is entering that field with a different pitch: a four-product routine built around research-backed complexes imported from Korea and Japan.\r\nSkinique’s brightening range for radiant, hydrated, healthy-looking skin every day.\r\nAccording to the company, the idea took shape in Dr. Kapiil’s clinical practice, where she found patients had little reliable way to judge an effective product from a loudly marketed one, and limited affordable access to clinical-grade formulations. Skinique, the brand says, is designed to close that gap by pairing globally sourced, evidence-backed actives with formulations built specifically for Indian skin, climate and routines.\r\nRather than expanding into a wide catalogue, Skinique has built its entire offering around four products, one for each step of a cleanse-hydrate-repair-protect routine. The brand says the approach reflects a philosophy of “Minimal Steps, Maximum Efficacy,” positioning it as a deliberate contrast to the wider trend of expanding product catalogues among direct-to-consumer skincare brands in India.\r\nWhat sets the formulations apart\r\nCentral to that positioning are two proprietary complexes the company says anchor its formulations. Re-DerMAX, developed through Korean research, is described as an anti-aging complex intended to support skin hydration, barrier repair and overall skin health. Claire Blanche-II, which the company describes as patented, is a botanical brightening complex developed through Japanese research, formulated with peony root, Baikal skullcap root and strawberry begonia extracts, and designed to target pigmentation and uneven skin tone. A third ingredient, Korean rice water, is used across the range for its skin-softening and radiance properties.\r\nThe brand positions its differentiation as structural rather than promotional: a range built by a practicing physician around specific actives with stated evidence behind them, rather than assembled around trending ingredients. The company says, every active is included for a defined function rather than to pad an ingredient list.\r\nThe founder speaks\r\n“Radiant skin is not a luxury reserved for the few. It is the result of science, honesty, and formulations that respect the skin’s own intelligence. Every Skinique formula is created to brighten, correct, and protect, without compromise,” said Dr. Shallu Kapiil, Founder, Skinique.\r\nThe range\r\nThe four products are built to address specific, everyday skin concerns.\r\n\r\nThe Brightening Foaming Face Wash, formulated with Korean rice water, Niacinamide and 2% Salicylic Acid, is designed as a non-drying daily cleanser suitable for normal, dry and oily skin, aimed at reducing dullness, controlling excess oil and refining the appearance of pores without stripping the skin barrier.\r\nThe Brightening Serum, featuring Claire Blanche-II alongside Glutathione and Alpha Arbutin, is positioned for those dealing with dark spots, uneven skin tone and dullness. It is lightweight and fast-absorbing, formulated for use both morning and evening as part of a daily routine.\r\nThe Brightening Moisturizer, built on Re-DerMAX with Tranexamic Acid, Papaya Extract and Niacinamide, is intended for normal to dry skin, combining hydration and barrier support with targeted action on hyperpigmentation, dark spots and uneven texture.\r\nThe Mineral Sunscreen, SPF 50 PA+++, formulated with zinc oxide, sandalwood extract, moringa oil and Methyl Lactate, offers broad-spectrum UV A and UV B protection in a lightweight, cooling formula that the company says blends in without a white cast or greasy feel, making it suited to daily use under makeup.\r\n\r\nThe brand is available through its own website and major e-commerce marketplaces, with a growing presence across social and digital platforms. Products are formulated for users aged fifteen and above, and the company describes its pricing as accessible, with curated bundles, including gifting sets, aimed at first-time buyers building a routine from scratch.\r\nAbout Skinique\r\nSkinique is a doctor-owned skincare brand founded by aesthetic physician Dr. Shallu Kapiil. The brand was created in response to a gap Dr. Kapiil observed in her clinical practice, where patients struggled to distinguish effective products from loudly marketed ones, and had limited affordable access to clinical-grade skincare. Skinique pairs globally sourced, evidence-backed actives with formulations built specifically for Indian skin, climate and routines, guided by the philosophy of “Minimal Steps, Maximum Efficacy.” The company says it plans to expand its range to address a wider set of skin concerns, deepen ingredient education for consumers, and build a community that sees the brand as a trusted voice in their skincare routine, rather than simply a product line.\r\nIf you object to the content of this press release, please notify us at pr.error.rectification@gmail.com.

Members of RWCC have so far put around 5.8 million compostable products into service in place of plastic.\r\nThe leaderboard ranks member restaurants on three counts:\r\n\r\nThe number of meals served plastic-free\r\nThe carbon-dioxide emissions avoided\r\nThe volume of compostable tableware used, measured in tonnes.\r\n\r\nRestaurants are ranked both on a national board and within their own category, such as quick-service restaurants, cloud kitchens, casual dining, cafes and caterers, and the standings are refreshed every season.\r\nSeveral of India’s best-known food brands are already on the board. In the current season, Haldiram’s leads the national ranking with about 4.25 million meals served plastic-free, followed by Caterspoint and Bikanervala, with Lite Bite Foods and Taco Bell also among the ranked members.\r\nAcross all its members, the Club has put about 5.8 million compostable products into service, avoided roughly 234 tonnes of carbon-dioxide-equivalent emissions, and delivered an environmental benefit equivalent to planting around 10,760 trees.\r\nMr. ShubhamTibrewal, Business Head – Food Services (CHUK), Pakka Limited says, “For years, a restaurant that chose to serve food on compostable tableware made a real decision that its customers never saw. The leaderboard changes that. It turns an invisible, behind-the-counter choice into a public and verified number that a restaurant can be recognised for, and that its diners can trust. And because every figure comes from real order data, no one can simply claim it without having done the work.”\r\nMembership of the Restaurants Who Care Club is free for every restaurant that serves food on CHUK. Members receive a seven-piece recognition kit, including a plaque that displays their season rank and verified impact numbers for diners to see. Members also join a dedicated WhatsApp community built to help restaurants grow, where operators share practical guidance on customer retention, customer experience, business growth and the everyday work of running and scaling a restaurant and learn from one another.\r\nFor more information about the leaderboard, visit https://www.restaurantswhocare.com/#your-spot.\r\nIf you object to the content of this press release, please notify us at pr.error.rectification@gmail.com.

Here’s What You Should Check Before Booking Your Move","name":"Searching “Original Agarwal Packers and Movers” Online? Here’s What You Should Check Before Booking Your Move","articleBody":"New Delhi [India], September 24: Moving to a new home or city is already a major task. From packing household belongings and shifting furniture to transporting a car, there are several things that need to be planned carefully. But before all of this, there is one important step that people often overlook making sure they are actually booking the right moving company.\r\nThis becomes particularly important when searching online for a well-known moving brand Agarwal Packers and Movers. A quick online search can bring up multiple websites, business listings, advertisements and companies with names that may look similar.\r\nSo, how does a customer know which one is the original?\r\nFor customers looking specifically for the original Agarwal Packers and Movers, the first thing to know is that the original company is Agarwal Packers and Movers Limited (APML), founded by Shri Ramesh Agarwalin the year 1987. The company’s official website is www.agarwalpackers.com, and its official centralised contact number is 9300300300.\r\nRather than relying only on a Google search result, customers can take a few simple steps before sharing their details, accepting a quotation or making any payment.\r\nStart With the Website, Not Just the Search Result\r\nOne of the easiest mistakes customers can make is assuming that the first website appearing in search results must be the official company website.\r\nThat is not always a safe way to verify a business.\r\nWhen searching for Agarwal Packers and Movers online, customers should carefully check the website address. The official APML website is:\r\nwww.agarwalpackers.com\r\nA website using words such as “Agarwal Packers,” “Agarwal Movers” or a similar combination in its domain name does not, by itself, establish that it belongs to APML.\r\nThe company’s official awareness page – https://www.agarwalpackers.com/beware-of-fake.html also cautions customers about websites and businesses using names that closely resemble the brand.\r\nCheck the Exact Company Name with ‘Limited’\r\nThe next simple check is the company name.\r\nCustomers should look for:\r\nAgarwal Packers and Movers Limited (APML)\r\nA similar-looking name, spelling variation or a company claiming to be an “agent”, “associate” or “partner” should not automatically be treated as the original company.\r\nThis is especially important because similar names can look convincing at first glance. The official company is Agarwal Packers and Movers Limited, the only ‘Limited company registered under ROC (Govt of India) with name of Agarwal Packers and Movers. The customers are advised to verify the company’s identity rather than relying only on a familiar-looking name.\r\nLook for the Official APML Branding\r\nAnother useful visual check is the company’s branding.\r\nAPML’s official awareness information highlights its distinctive logo with  photograph of Shri Ramesh Agarwal with APML written as identifying elements customers can look for when verifying the company.\r\nThis does not mean customers should verify a company based on a logo alone. Instead, the branding should match the other official details, particularly the website and contact information.\r\nIn simple terms:\r\nDon’t check just one thing. Check the complete identity.\r\nVerify the Contact Number Before You Talk About Your Move\r\nCustomers often contact a moving company through a phone number shown on a Google listing, advertisement, social media post or third-party website.\r\nBefore proceeding, it is advisable to cross-check the number with the company’s official website.\r\nThe official APML website currently lists 9300300300 as its Centralised booking number.\r\nIf someone claims to represent Agarwal Packers and Movers but provides different contact details, customers should verify those details through the official website before proceeding.\r\nBe Careful With Very Low Quotes\r\nPrice naturally matters when people are planning a move. Customers often compare multiple quotations before making a decision.\r\nHowever, an unusually low quotation should not be the only reason to choose a moving company.\r\nA customer may see an attractive price online and quickly share an address, phone number or other details. A better approach is to first establish who is actually providing the quotation.\r\nBefore accepting a quote, check:\r\n\r\nThe exact company name\r\nThe website from which the enquiry was made\r\nContact details\r\nQuotation and booking information\r\nPayment details\r\nSupporting company documentation\r\n\r\nAPML’s consumer-awareness guidance specifically cautions customers about misleading offers, fake promises and unusually low prices used to attract enquiries.\r\nNever Ignore the Payment Details\r\nThis is one of the most important checks before booking.\r\nA customer may have spoken to someone claiming to represent a familiar brand, but the payment request can reveal whether the transaction is actually being made with the intended company.\r\nAPML’s official guidance advises customers to verify that payment details are in the name of Agarwal Packers and Movers Limited and to be cautious if someone asks for payment in the name of an unrelated company or individual.\r\nSo, before transferring money, take a moment to check:\r\nWho is receiving the payment?\r\nIf the name does not match the company you intended to book, stop and verify.\r\nDon’t Assume a Google Advertisement Means Official Representation\r\nOnline advertising can make a company highly visible. But an advertisement appearing when someone searches for a brand name should not, on its own, be treated as proof that the advertiser represents that brand.\r\nThis is why customers searching for “original Agarwal Packers and Movers”, “Agarwal Packers and Movers official website” or “Agarwal Packers and Movers near me” should still verify the business through APML’s official website and contact channels.\r\nThe official APML awareness page specifically advises customers not to rely only on online listings or advertisements when establishing authenticity.\r\nA Five-Point Check Before Booking\r\nFor someone who simply wants to know, “Am I dealing with the original Agarwal Packers and Movers?”, the process can be kept very simple.\r\n1. Check the Website\r\nMake sure you are on www.agarwalpackers.com.\r\n2. Check the Company Name\r\nLook for Agarwal Packers and Movers Limited (APML).\r\n3. Check the Official Contact Number\r\nCross-check the contact details with the official website. APML currently lists 9300300300.\r\n4. Check the Branding\r\nLook for the official APML branding, including the recognised logo and the photograph of the company’s founder, Shri Ramesh Agarwal (Man with the cap), with APML written below it.\r\n5. Check the Payment Details\r\nBefore making any payment, verify the quotation, booking information and the name under which payment is being requested.\r\nThese simple checks can help customers avoid making a decision based solely on a website name, online advertisement, low quotation or a phone call.\r\nWhy This Verification Matters\r\nRelocation involves more than simply moving boxes from one address to another.\r\nPeople hand over furniture, electronics, documents, appliances, vehicles and personal belongings accumulated over years. They also share their home address, destination details and other personal information during the booking process.\r\nThat is why identifying the right service provider should be the first step — even before discussing price or scheduling the move.\r\nA few minutes spent checking the website, company name, contact number and payment details can provide much greater clarity before a booking is confirmed.\r\nFAQs: Searching for the Original Agarwal Packers and Movers\r\n1. Which is the original Agarwal Packers and Movers?\r\nThe original company is Agarwal Packers and Movers Limited (APML), founded by Shri Ramesh Agarwal.\r\n2. What is the official website of Agarwal Packers and Movers?\r\nThe official website is www.agarwalpackers.com. Customers should carefully check the domain before sharing information or making a payment.\r\n3. What is the official contact number of Agarwal Packers and Movers?\r\nThe official APML website currently lists 9300300300 as its centralized contact number.\r\n4. How can I check whether an Agarwal Packers and Movers website is genuine?\r\nCheck the complete website address. The official APML website is www.agarwalpackers.com. Do not assume that every website containing the words “Agarwal Packers and Movers” is an official APML website.\r\n5. Are there companies using names similar to Agarwal Packers and Movers?\r\nCustomers may come across businesses, websites and listings using names that are similar to the Agarwal Packers and Movers brand. This is why APML advises customers to verify the company name, website, contact details and other official information before booking.\r\n6. Can I trust a company just because it appears on Google?\r\nNo single search result, advertisement or online listing should be treated as complete proof of authenticity. Verify the details against the official APML website before booking.\r\n7. What should I do if I am unsure whether a booking is genuine?\r\nPause the booking and verify the details directly through the official APML website and centralized contact number. It is better to take a few additional minutes for verification than to proceed without knowing exactly who is handling your move.\r\nA Simple Rule to Remember\r\nWhen searching online for “Original Agarwal Packers and Movers”, don’t make your decision based only on the first search result, the lowest quotation or a familiar-looking company name.\r\nCheck the name. Check the website. Check the number. Check the branding. Check the payment details.\r\nFor Agarwal Packers and Movers, customers can start their verification directly through www.agarwalpackers.com and the official contact number 9300300300.\r\nBecause when your household is being moved, knowing who you are handing it over to is just as important as knowing where it is going.\r\nAbout Agarwal Packers and Movers Limited (APML)\r\nFounded by Shri Ramesh Agarwal in 1987, Agarwal Packers and Movers Limited is a relocation and logistics company offering domestic and international moving and related services. The company operates through its official website www.agarwalpackers.com and lists 9300300300 as its centralized contact number.

New research from Techmagnate suggests that question is incomplete, and answering it alone may be giving brands a false sense of visibility.\r\nSearch behaviour in categories like Personal Loans has moved toward AI-summarised answers, where users see a synthesised response before ever visiting a lender’s website. Unlike traditional search rankings, the sources AI platforms choose to cite are not fixed. A brand cited this week can lose that citation the next, without any change to its website, its rankings, or its competitors.\r\nTo understand how this instability actually behaves, Techmagnate tracked 83,633 AI citations across ChatGPT, Perplexity, and Google AI Mode over 8 weeks, covering 2,191 domains in India’s Personal Loan category. The study found that domains cited by AI platforms churn at an average rate of 39% week over week. At the same time, a much smaller group, just 330 domains, held onto 93% of all citations by appearing consistently across every single week tracked.\r\n“For two years, the industry has treated AI citation as a binary, either you show up or you don’t. What this data tells us is that presence and consistency are two different problems, and most brands are only solving for the first one,” said Sarvesh Bagla, Founder and CEO, Techmagnate.\r\n“The brands actually winning this category aren’t the ones that got mentioned once and moved on. They’re the ones structured to be cited on the same terms every week, across every platform. That’s a much harder thing to build than a single optimised page, and it’s going to separate the brands that treat AI visibility as a project from the ones that treat it as infrastructure.”\r\nThe study also found that NBFCs earned more than double the AI citation share of traditional banks, 53.4% against 23.1%, and that churn behaved differently across platforms, with ChatGPT dropping cited domains nearly 45% of the time weekly, compared to under 32% for Google AI Mode.\r\nTechmagnate has made the full LLM Citation Drift Report available for download  and is following it with a second study, the AI Visibility Benchmark, which maps where individual BFSI brands stand across these same platforms. Together, the two studies extend Techmagnate’s ongoing work in AI-led search visibility, as AI-driven discovery continues to reshape how financial brands are found and trusted online.\r\nAbout Techmagnate\r\nFounded in 2006 and headquartered in New Delhi, Techmagnate is a leading digital marketing agency in India offering end-to-end, performance-driven digital marketing services. The agency delivers integrated solutions across Enterprise SEO, content marketing, pay-per-click advertising, AI-powered digital marketing, Large Language Model Optimisation (LLMO), Generative Engine Optimisation (GEO).\r\nTechmagnate partners with enterprises and brands across BFSI, Healthcare, Automotive, ecommerce, and other industries, helping them achieve measurable digital growth through data-driven, technology-led, and scalable marketing strategies.\r\nFor more information, visit www.techmagnate.com.\r\nIf you object to the content of this press release, please notify us at pr.error.rectification@gmail.com.

Through its unified Alteryx One platform, organizations can define, maintain, and govern business logic in visual workflows, giving AI the business context it needs to produce reliable, repeatable outcomes.\r\nThe summit marked Arvind Krishnan’s first visit to India as Chief Technology Officer of Alteryx. During the event, Krishnan met with customers, partners, and technology leaders to discuss the evolving enterprise AI landscape and the technology foundations required to scale AI with greater trust, transparency and business impact. He also delivered a session, “Alteryx: Put Your Data + AI to Work,” focused on how organizations can close the trust gap around AI and address requirements under regulatory frameworks, such as India’s Digital Personal Data Protection Act, 2023 (DPDP), by grounding AI outcomes in transparent, auditable business logic.\r\n“As organizations move from experimenting with AI to putting it to work across critical business processes, the challenge isn’t simply access to AI. It’s giving AI the business context and logic it needs to produce outcomes people can trust,” said Arvind Krishnan, Chief Technology Officer, Alteryx. “When business logic is connected to trusted data and AI, organizations can move faster while maintaining the transparency, control, and accountability required to scale. This summit has given us the opportunity to collaborate with India’s technology leaders on turning AI investments into reliable, measurable business outcomes.“\r\nKrishnan was joined at the summit by Sabya Sen, Vice President, IMEA &amp;amp; APAC, Alteryx, giving customers, partners, and data and technology leaders the opportunity to engage with Alteryx leadership on their data, analytics and AI priorities. Sen leads Alteryx’s business across India, the Middle East, Africa and Asia-Pacific, with a focus on customer outcomes and scaling adoption of the Alteryx One platform.\r\nAt the summit, Alteryx showcased Alteryx One through live demonstrations across enterprise use cases, including governed agentic decisioning, predictive asset operations, finance and audit automation across close, reconciliation and controls, and supply-chain and procurement spend intelligence. Demonstrations will also highlight how organizations can use Alteryx One to help navigate regulatory requirements like those under the DPDP while showing how to embed business logic into governed workflows and bring AI and analytics into the operational processes where decisions get made and work gets done.\r\n“India is an important market in the global evolution of data, analytics, and AI, as enterprises increasingly look to move from experimentation to measurable business value,” said Sabya Sen, Vice President, IMEA &amp;amp; APAC, Alteryx. “At the same time, India’s evolving regulatory landscape, including the Digital Personal Data Protection (DPDP) framework, is putting greater focus on how organizations understand, govern and use their data. As businesses scale AI, assessing data risk and compliance can no longer be treated as a separate exercise—it needs to be embedded into the data and analytics processes that drive everyday decisions.”\r\n\r\nAlteryx’s presence at the summit reflects a broader shift in enterprise AI: from experimentation toward repeatable, governed workflows that can drive real business decisions and action. By connecting trusted data, business logic, analytics, automation, and AI, Alteryx helps organizations close the last-mile gap between their data platforms and the business processes that run the enterprise.\r\nABOUT ALTERYX:\r\nAlteryx is the agentic analytics and automation company that helps organizations turn complex data into trusted insights, decisions, and action.

That’s a fairly normal week for a middle manager.\r\nThey’re not the ones setting the big vision. They’re not the ones doing the hands-on work either. They’re the people in between, and honestly, they’re some of the hardest-working, least-appreciated people in any company.\r\nPulled in every direction\r\nMiddle managers get hit from all sides, all the time. They have to absorb shocks and continue to deliver.\r\nFrom above, there’s pressure to hit targets, roll out new initiatives, and make sense of decisions they often didn’t have a hand in making. From the side, there’s friction – other teams pulling on the same resources, chasing different priorities, or simply not talking to each other. Collaboration. Silos. Inter-dependence is a daily focus for the Middle Manager. And from below, there are people who need coaching, encouragement, someone to fight for them, and someone to steady them when things go wrong.\r\nThat’s not one job. That’s three jobs, wearing one name tag. No wonder it’s exhausting.\r\nWhy nobody’s building anything for them\r\nHere’s the strange part: companies spend a lot of time and money developing their senior leaders. They spend a lot of time and money training their frontline teams. But the folks stuck in the middle, doing arguably the trickiest job of all? They mostly get left to figure it out on their own.\r\nLeadership programs are usually written with executives in mind.. people setting strategy and vision. Skills programs are written for people doing a specific, definable job. Middle managers don’t fit into either box. Their job isn’t about strategy or a single skill; it’s about people, translation, and constant compromise. So when it comes time to build training, they slip through the cracks.\r\nThey end up learning the hard way, through trial, error, and a lot of quiet frustration.\r\nWhy this actually matters\r\nWhen middle managers don’t get support, it doesn’t stay their problem for long.\r\nBig ideas from leadership lose their shine somewhere on the way down if the manager passing them along doesn’t know how to make them make sense. Teams start to feel the strain, because for most employees, their manager is the company – how that person shows up shapes everything about how work feels. And when managers get worn down, they leave, and they take a lot of hard-won knowledge and team trust out the door with them.\r\nThe middle isn’t just a layer on an org chart. It’s the glue. Neglect it, and things everywhere else start to come loose.\r\nWhat would actually help\r\nSupporting middle managers well isn’t about handing them a slide deck from an executive course or a shrunk-down version of frontline training. It means starting from what they actually deal with every day:\r\n\r\n\r\nTraining built around their real job: the translating, the mediating, the people-managing, not a watered-down version of something meant for someone else.\r\n\r\n\r\nEnough say to match their responsibility: the ability to actually make some of the decisions they’re being held accountable for.\r\n\r\n\r\nA community of peers : so they’re not each quietly reinventing the wheel, solving the same problems alone in every corner of the company.\r\n\r\n\r\nTo be seen: a simple, sincere acknowledgment from leadership that this is hard work, and that it matters.\r\n\r\n\r\nThis is one of the things Tutul Consulting spends time on: Urging leaders to involve the overlooked middle layer in transformation, in decisions, in culture shaping. All our OD interventions include the top and senior middle management.\r\nThe takeaway\r\nMiddle managers keep organizations standing, often quietly, often without much thanks. They deserve more than whatever’s left over once the top and bottom of the chart have been taken care of. That’s where Tutul Consulting bridges the distance because when the unsung heroes in the middle are supported , everyone around them feels it too.","articleSection":"Business","datePublished":"2026-09-24T13:44:11+0530","dateModified":"2026-09-24T13:53:37+0530","inLanguage":"en-us","author":{"@type":"Person","name":"Correspondent Desk","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com/user/marudharabharti"},"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Marudhara Bharti English","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com/uploads/logo/logo_6ab9270c36c334-01124948.png"}},"image":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEiokZ8ThSglCNPyCAr4d_lJkiuiM4ophoGLeab844kQAx956Zh1U8YZRJHUbI-c6IzYVnI-Z-5kD-6Hr5d0fFcRr7opeybojgk5NwnjQ-AEhq8BDXSy_0HfAIEVi-HqOX6Pdf16greYbYCe7rrhfNxsNVJsBC8h5PMpHcAm-f6RlRpQkfZrOQHOyQ5VPMBS=w1600","contentUrl":"https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEiokZ8ThSglCNPyCAr4d_lJkiuiM4ophoGLeab844kQAx956Zh1U8YZRJHUbI-c6IzYVnI-Z-5kD-6Hr5d0fFcRr7opeybojgk5NwnjQ-AEhq8BDXSy_0HfAIEVi-HqOX6Pdf16greYbYCe7rrhfNxsNVJsBC8h5PMpHcAm-f6RlRpQkfZrOQHOyQ5VPMBS=w1600"},"keywords":["The","Squeezed","Middle:","Tutul","Consulting","the","Unsung","Heroes","Who","Uphold","the","Organization"]}</script>

The brand was incorporated in 1985, and its founder, Mr. Ram Saran Bhatia, opened the group’s first property, Hotel Delite, in 1987, a modest 28-room hotel run by a team of 60 people operating on what the group still describes internally as a “never STOP attitude” and an “employee-first” approach. That single property has since grown into a name synonymous with hospitality in the region, expanding to a 70-room establishment with a multi-cuisine restaurant and, eventually, into Delite Garden in 2004 as part of a longer-term programme of geographic expansion.\r\nToday, that legacy lives on through Hotel Delite Grand, located on Neelam Bata Road in NIT Faridabad. The property houses 88 tastefully appointed rooms across Standard, Deluxe, Executive and Suite categories, each fitted with modern conveniences such as air-conditioning, 40-inch LED televisions, electronic safes, mini bars and high-speed Wi-Fi. Its food and beverage offering spans The Real Spice, a multi-cuisine restaurant known for its signature recipes, and The Hangout Bar, an in-house lounge built for guests who want to unwind over a curated beverage selection. On the events side, the hotel’s Grand Ball Room accommodates up to 700 guests for weddings and large corporate functions, while Crystal Palace and the more intimate Oasis, suited to gatherings of 80-plus, round out a banqueting portfolio built for everything from cocktail parties to conferences.\r\nIt is a hotel with a genuine legacy, but legacy alone no longer fills rooms or banquet halls. That is where DigiBirds360 entered the picture.\r\nWhere Hospitality Meets Performance Marketing\r\nFounded in 2020 and headquartered in Faridabad, DigiBirds360 has built its reputation as an ISO 9001:2015-certified, full-suite digital marketing agency serving sectors as varied as automotive, education, BFSI, manufacturing, lifestyle, healthcare, real estate, and, critically for this story, Hotel &amp;amp; Tourism. Under its dedicated hospitality vertical, the agency positions itself squarely as a digital marketing agency for hotels, offering hotel SEO, local search optimisation, Google Business Profile management, performance marketing, paid campaigns, social media management, website design and content strategy: the full stack that today’s independent and mid-market hotel brands need to compete with OTA-driven discovery and global chains alike.\r\nFor a property like Delite Grand, the brief was straightforward in principle but demanding in execution: translate a hotel with genuine on-ground strengths (a distinctive front-of-house design, a signature restaurant, a purpose-built events wing) into a digital presence that could drive direct discovery, engagement and bookings rather than leaving the hotel dependent solely on walk-ins, agents and third-party listings. That has meant sharpening the hotel’s search visibility around Faridabad and NCR hospitality searches, building out content and imagery that does justice to spaces like the Grand Ball Room and Real Spice, and ensuring that a guest researching wedding venues, business meeting spaces or a weekend stay finds Delite Grand exactly where they are looking.\r\nThis is the essence of what industry observers are increasingly calling the “digitisation of hospitality”: not a replacement of the guest experience, but an extension of it into the research and booking journey that now precedes almost every stay.\r\nA Portfolio Built on Hospitality Expertise\r\nDelite Grand is not an isolated engagement for DigiBirds360 within the hospitality space. The agency’s Hotel &amp;amp; Tourism portfolio reflects a broader pattern of working with properties across formats and geographies, from boutique city hotels to destination resorts, including engagements associated with names such as Omni Hotel, Hilton Daytona, Lemon Tree and properties in the Jim Corbett hospitality corridor, a region known for its national park resorts and wildlife tourism demand.\r\nEach of these represents a different flavour of the same underlying challenge: how does a hotel brand, whether a global chain affiliate or a strong regional independent, convert its physical hospitality strengths into digital visibility and, ultimately, revenue?\r\nThe Bigger Picture\r\nThe DigiBirds360 × Delite Grand collaboration is, in many ways, a microcosm of where Indian hospitality is headed. Independent and regional hotel groups that built their reputations over decades on service, food and ambience are now recognising that the next chapter of growth depends equally on how discoverable, credible and compelling they are online. For Delite Grand, a brand with a near-forty-year legacy rooted in Faridabad’s hospitality history, that means pairing its established strengths in dining, accommodation and events with a digital strategy designed to meet today’s traveller where they actually begin their journey: on search engines, social platforms and review sites.\r\nAs more hospitality brands across India look to bridge the gap between legacy and digital growth, partnerships of this kind, pairing on-ground hospitality expertise with focused, sector-specific digital marketing execution, are likely to define the next phase of the industry’s evolution.","articleSection":"Business","datePublished":"2026-09-24T13:44:11+0530","dateModified":"2026-09-24T14:52:41+0530","inLanguage":"en-us","author":{"@type":"Person","name":"Correspondent Desk","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com/user/marudharabharti"},"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Marudhara Bharti English","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com/uploads/logo/logo_6ab9270c36c334-01124948.png"}},"image":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEi-wCcyOcAf863M8KogOtLWzzDSZmUIozOYLdB5Y2WeKc-QsSdWviwjGyNUEBQwtBdECCPDpJxkFEwmCYekvNBhT8Ld9te_L-s7nL29vMqqhh8xDYqCn6XEZaPAG8MwXSF0uSpliVfJ02BO7SOyDlzec1G7Mk9z7INKszCWcBl4Cv7gYXy-YKKmC7cuL-fN=w1600","contentUrl":"https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEi-wCcyOcAf863M8KogOtLWzzDSZmUIozOYLdB5Y2WeKc-QsSdWviwjGyNUEBQwtBdECCPDpJxkFEwmCYekvNBhT8Ld9te_L-s7nL29vMqqhh8xDYqCn6XEZaPAG8MwXSF0uSpliVfJ02BO7SOyDlzec1G7Mk9z7INKszCWcBl4Cv7gYXy-YKKmC7cuL-fN=w1600"},"keywords":["Turning","Hospitality","into","Digital","Experiences:","The","DigiBirds360","Delite","Grand","Story"]}</script>

Mohan Babu and Physics Wallah Founder-CEO Alakh Pandey exchange MoU copies at Tirupati; Pro Chancellor Vishnu Manchu and Trustee Vinay Maheshwari were also present\r\nMohan Babu University has partnered with PhysicsWallah to strengthen the connection between academic learning and industry readiness, providing students with opportunities to develop practical skills, gain industry exposure and prepare for the evolving demands of the workplace.\r\nThe MoU was signed at the MBU campus in Tirupati in the presence of Dr. M. Mohan Babu, Chancellor, Mohan Babu University, and Alakh Pandey, Co-Founder, PhysicsWallah, along with senior university leadership, faculty members and students.\r\nThe partnership comes at a time when employers increasingly seek graduates who can combine strong academic foundations with practical capabilities, technological proficiency and workplace skills. The Human Capital for Viksit Bharat report notes that youth employability in India stood at 54.8% in 2025, while the World Economic Forum’s Future of Jobs Report 2025 highlights analytical thinking, adaptability, technological literacy, artificial intelligence and big data among the skills shaping the future of work.\r\nBringing Industry Learning into the Academic Journey\r\nUnder the partnership, MBU students will gain access to industry-aligned learning delivered in association with PW Skills. The programme will include practical training, projects, exposure to contemporary tools and technologies, and sessions led by industry professionals.\r\nStudents will also receive structured preparation in soft skills, aptitude, domain-specific knowledge, role-specific skills, and interview readiness. A key feature of the initiative is the two-teacher mentorship model, through which PW Skills industry experts will provide practical exposure and workplace context, while MBU faculty mentors will support students throughout their academic and skill-development journey.\r\nThe programme is planned across three semesters, enabling students to progressively build their capabilities alongside their regular academic curriculum.\r\nStudents will have access to industry-aligned learning pathways in Data Analytics and Data Science, Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning, Full Stack Development and Digital Marketing.\r\nBuilding on MBU’s Academic and Global Ecosystem\r\nThe partnership builds on MBU’s broader emphasis on connecting education with industry, emerging technologies and global academic opportunities. With 34 years of educational legacy, 108+ programmes and more than 18,000 students, MBU has developed an academic ecosystem spanning engineering and computing, management, commerce, liberal arts and sciences, pharmaceutical sciences, health sciences, agriculture and nursing.\r\nThe University is NAAC A+ accredited and has received a QS I-GAUGE Diamond rating, recognising its performance across key dimensions of higher education. Its technology-oriented academic ecosystem includes programmes in areas such as Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning, Artificial Intelligence and Data Science, Cyber Security, Data Science, Cloud Computing and DevOps.\r\nMBU has also been expanding its international academic footprint through collaborations with globally recognised institutions. The University has established a Joint Degree Programme collaboration with Penn State University, providing an international dimension to its academic offerings and opportunities for students to engage with global academic and learning environments. MBU is also associated with RWTH Aachen University, one of Germany’s leading technical universities, as part of its global academic collaboration initiatives, further strengthening its focus on international exposure and technology-oriented education.\r\nThese global partnerships complement MBU’s emphasis on experiential and industry-linked learning through initiatives such as its Top Gun programme, Continuous Evaluation Program for Placement Readiness, Training for English Proficiency and specialised skill-development initiatives.\r\nThe University’s industry orientation is further supported by its focus on research, innovation, entrepreneurship and employability, creating an ecosystem where students can build academic knowledge alongside practical and professional capabilities.\r\nSpeaking about the collaboration, Vishnu Manchu, Pro-Chancellor, Mohan Babu University, said: “Our students are entering a world where the pace of change is as much a challenge as an opportunity. At MBU, we want them to see that change as their advantage. Strong fundamentals, exposure to real industry practice and mentorship they can trust are what turn ambition into careers. This collaboration with PW Skills gives our students that blend, in areas such as AI, data and digital, where the future of work is being written.”\r\nVinay Maheshwari, Trustee, Mohan Babu University, said: “Employability is not built in the final semester. It is built steadily, when learning, practice and guidance come together. Through the two-teacher model with PW Skills, industry practitioners and our own faculty mentors will work side by side with students across three semesters, alongside their academic journey.”\r\nAlakh Pandey, Co-Founder and CEO, PhysicsWallah, said: “A university education gives students the foundation they need, but the world of work also demands practical skills, confidence and the ability to keep learning. Through this partnership, we aim to bring industry exposure and practical learning closer to students while they are still in college.”\r\nThe MBU-PW Skills partnership represents a step towards creating a more connected learning ecosystem where academic knowledge, global exposure, industry engagement, practical skills and career preparation come together, helping MBU students build the capabilities required to navigate an evolving professional landscape.\r\nIf you object to the content of this press release, please notify us at pr.error.rectification@gmail.com.

We believe our experience in the agri-processing sector, established sourcing ecosystem and focus on quality provide us with a strong foundation for sustainable growth.”\r\nMs. Amina Khan, Director, Indorient Financial Services Limited, said “India has established a strong position in the global shrimp and red dry chillies trade, supported by its production base, processing ecosystem and established export markets. Demand from key international markets, together with the growing domestic consumption of seafood and spices, continues to create opportunities across the value chain.\r\nGreen Asia Impex operates at the intersection of these two established agri-commodity segments, with its business spanning shrimp and dry chillies and a presence across both domestic and international markets. The Company has developed processing capabilities, an established procurement network and quality-control systems aligned with the requirements of its customers and export markets.\r\nThe Company’s proposed expansion of its seafood processing infrastructure comes at a time when increasing processing capacity and value addition are becoming important elements of India’s agri-export ecosystem. The IPO provides Green Asia Impex with an opportunity to strengthen its operating platform and invest in capacity that supports its future business requirements.\r\nWe are pleased to be associated with Green Asia Impex in its transition to the public markets and look forward to supporting the Company as it progresses into its next phase of growth.”\r\nAbout The Company\r\nIncorporated in 2014, Green Asia Impex Limited is an agri-processing and export company based in Andhra Pradesh, one of India’s key hubs for shrimps and dry chillies.

Ltd., with a broader focus on livestock nutrition and a growing presence across Indian markets.\r\nThe transition into the new corporate structure in 2026 represents another chapter in a family business that has continued across generations. Today, Akshit Ram Goyal serves as Managing Director, with Savita Goyal and Isha Goyal contributing as Directors. The family continues to combine its experience in the cattle-feed industry with a more structured approach to manufacturing, product development and market expansion.\r\nAlongside Sardar Cattle Feed, Sudharma Feed is the second brand under Sudharma Animal Nutrition Pvt. Ltd. The two brands form part of the company’s broader approach to animal nutrition, while Sardar Cattle Feed remains closely associated with the family’s long-standing cattle-feed journey. This brand structure also reflects the company’s transition from a traditional family business into a more professionally organised animal-nutrition company, with a wider vision for product development and market expansion.\r\nFour decades of experience in cattle nutrition\r\nThe story of Sardar Cattle Feed began at a time when branded cattle feed was still developing as a category. According to the company’s history, Late Shri Ramesh Goyal established the business in 1984 with an emphasis on balanced feed and the needs of dairy farmers.\r\nOver the years, the business expanded its presence across several states, while the family remained involved in its development. Savita Goyal played an important role in carrying the business forward, followed by the involvement of the next generation.\r\nThe company has also received several recognitions over the years, including a Gold Medal from the Institute of Quality Control and National Character, the Udyog Shree Award in 1990, the Lok Shree Award in 1990 and the Udyog Rattan Award in 1993. These recognitions form part of the company’s historical record and are distinct from any present-day product performance claims.\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nWhat should farmers look for in dairy cattle feed?\r\nEvery animal does not have identical nutritional requirements. Breed, body condition, age, milk production, stage of lactation, and the availability of green fodder can all influence feeding decisions.\r\nSardar Cattle Feed’s own nutritional guidance highlights the importance of protein, energy, fat, minerals and vitamins in the overall diet. Its website also recommends that concentrated feed should be used alongside suitable green grass or hay rather than treating cattle feed as the only component of an animal’s diet.\r\nThis is an important consideration for dairy farmers. A practical feeding programme is not simply about finding a feed with a particular protein percentage. Farmers also need to consider the animal’s overall ration and whether the feed fits its particular stage of production.\r\nThe company advises that when changing from a conventional ration, the transition to Sardar cattle feed should take place over approximately seven to ten days. Its published feeding guidance also provides different quantities for cows and buffaloes based on milk production. Farmers should use the manufacturer’s recommendations and seek professional nutritional advice where individual animal requirements call for it.\r\nA product range designed around different requirements\r\nSardar’s current product range covers different requirements within dairy farming rather than relying on a single feed for every animal.\r\nFor cows, the company lists products including Sardar Gold Line C-3000, Sardar Red Label C-5000, Sardar Energy+ C-8000 and Sardar Booster C-10000. The published specifications show differences in protein, fat, fibre and other parameters across the range.\r\nThe company also has dedicated buffalo-feed products, including Sardar Buff Booster and Sardar Buff+, while its feed-supplement category includes mineral-focused products such as Sardar Min Forte and Sardar Cal Forte.\r\nFor farmers, having different formulations and categories can make it easier to discuss the appropriate option with a dealer or nutrition professional instead of treating cattle feed as a one-size-fits-all purchase.\r\nManufacturing consistency is part of the equation\r\nA cattle feed manufacturer’s responsibility does not end with selecting ingredients. Consistency during processing is equally important when farmers depend on a feed product as part of their regular feeding programme.\r\nSudharma Animal Nutrition states that ingredients used for Sardar cattle feed are pre-tested and subjected to quality-control analysis before processing. The company’s described manufacturing process includes proportionate dosing, grinding, mixing, molassing and pelleting, followed by packing in HDPE bags.\r\nThe company’s manufacturing facility is located at Village Kauri on G.T. Road near Khanna, Punjab. Its official website identifies Sudharma Animal Nutrition Pvt. Ltd. as the manufacturer of Sardar cattle feed.\r\nFrom Punjab to a wider Indian market\r\nAlthough Punjab remains central to the company’s story, Sardar Cattle Feed has developed a presence beyond its home market. The company identifies markets across North India and other parts of the country, while its current business plans focus on strengthening its PAN-India dealer and distributor network.\r\nThe next stage is broader than cattle feed alone. Sudharma Animal Nutrition’s stated plans include developing nutrition categories for cattle, goats and pigs, while also expanding international business. The company has already identified exports of Sardar Cattle Feed to Africa as part of its international development.\r\nThis wider approach reflects how the business is positioning itself: not simply as a cattle-feed seller, but as an animal-nutrition company with manufacturing, distribution and product-development capabilities.\r\nThe role of dealers and distributors\r\nFor a cattle-feed brand, farmers are only one part of the supply chain. Dealers and distributors are often the link between the manufacturer and the dairy farming community.\r\nSardar’s stated business focus includes building a stronger dealer and distributor network across India and developing long-term relationships with channel partners. This becomes particularly relevant as the company works to expand beyond its established North Indian markets.\r\nFor prospective dealers, the important consideration is not simply the name on a feed bag. Product range, manufacturing capability, market presence, consistency of supply and the company’s approach to long-term distribution all matter when evaluating a potential association.\r\nA family business entering its next phase\r\nThe evolution of Sardar Cattle Feed is ultimately a story about continuity. A business established by Late Shri Ramesh Goyal in 1984 has moved through different generations and is now operating under Sudharma Animal Nutrition Pvt. Ltd.\r\nThe next phase is focused on combining that history with modern manufacturing, a wider animal-nutrition portfolio, stronger distribution and international expansion.\r\nFor dairy farmers, dealers and distributors, the company’s journey offers a useful example of how a traditional family-led cattle-feed business can develop into a broader animal-nutrition organisation while retaining the experience accumulated over decades.\r\nWith Sardar Cattle Feed – A Best Cattle Feed in India Since 1984 as its established brand identity, Sudharma Animal Nutrition is now looking beyond its four-decade history towards the next stage of its growth in India’s evolving livestock and dairy sector.\r\nIf you object to the content of this press release, please notify us at pr.error.rectification@gmail.com.

Envisioned as a unique multigenerational community, Gratitude 84 is designed to bring together senior citizens and families in a thoughtfully planned residential environment that combines comfort, security, healthcare, wellness, recreation and community living.\r\nThe project has been conceptualised around the evolving needs of today’s families and the changing expectations of senior citizens. Rather than being limited to conventional senior living, Gratitude 84 offers a flexible living environment where senior citizens can choose to enjoy an independent lifestyle with access to dedicated support and community facilities, or live together with their children and grandchildren while remaining connected to their families and loved ones.\r\nThe name “Gratitude 84” reflects the core philosophy of the project—gratitude, respect and care for senior citizens who have dedicated a significant part of their lives to their families and society. The project aims to provide them with a dignified, safe, healthy and comfortable environment where they can enjoy a fulfilling life, while also creating a welcoming space for younger generations and families.\r\nImportantly, Gratitude 84 is not envisioned as a community exclusively for senior citizens living separately from their families. It is designed to provide flexibility for different family needs. Senior citizens can choose to live independently while having access to support, care and community facilities, or they can live together with their children and grandchildren, creating a comfortable multigenerational living environment where families can stay connected while enjoying modern amenities.\r\nOne of the key features of the project is its planned healthcare and medical support system. Keeping the health requirements of senior citizens in mind, the project includes provisions for 24×7 medical assistance, medical facilities, a medical room, emergency support and life-saving facilities. The development also focuses on provisions for doctor availability and nursing assistance whenever required.\r\nAn emergency assistance button is also planned to enable residents to seek immediate help during critical situations. The facility is intended to make emergency support quicker and more accessible for senior residents, while providing their families with greater peace of mind.\r\nThe project is also planned with a range of lifestyle and wellness facilities, including a meditation centre, yoga and fitness facilities, clubhouse, swimming pool, walking tracks, library, indoor games and community spaces. These amenities are designed not only for senior residents but also to encourage interaction and engagement among family members across generations.\r\nGratitude 84 aims to create a living environment where senior citizens can experience comfortable housing, care, companionship, independence and peace of mind, while families can continue to share everyday moments under one roof. Whether seniors choose to live independently or with their children and grandchildren, the project is envisioned to provide an environment that supports both choices.\r\nThe concept also recognises the changing needs of today’s families. With children often living in different cities or managing demanding professional lives, families increasingly seek living spaces where senior parents can have access to safety, healthcare and community facilities without losing their independence or connection with their loved ones. Gratitude 84 seeks to address this need through an integrated community-based approach.\r\nLocated in Sector 84, Gurugram, Gratitude 84 also benefits from its strategic location, with proximity to the Dwarka Expressway and major connectivity routes, providing convenient access to key parts of Gurugram and the National Capital Region.\r\nEnvironmental considerations have also been incorporated into the project planning, with emphasis on green spaces, natural light and improved ventilation to create a healthier and more pleasant living environment.\r\nThe Bhoomi Pujan ceremony was attended by CEO Bhaswar Paul, Vice President – Sales &amp;amp; Operations Anil Bajaj, Promoter Ashok Kumar, Pawan Dhaiya and Garvit Gupta, along with several prominent personalities from the industry.\r\nThe company’s vision is to create a place where senior citizens can experience respect, security, independence and a sense of belonging, while their children and grandchildren can also enjoy the benefits of living in a thoughtfully planned community. The project aims to bring together generations while giving every family the flexibility to choose the living arrangement that works best for them.\r\nThe Bhoomi Pujan marks an important milestone in the development of Gratitude 84, presenting a new approach to senior living and retirement communities—one where homes are complemented by healthcare, wellness, recreation, care and family-oriented community living.\r\nWith Gratitude 84, Lamose Infra LLP aims to take a meaningful step towards creating a safe, healthy, dignified and fulfilling lifestyle for senior citizens, while building a community where families and generations can live together—or independently—according to their individual needs and choices.","articleSection":"Business","datePublished":"2026-09-23T16:34:42+0530","dateModified":"2026-09-23T16:35:55+0530","inLanguage":"en-us","author":{"@type":"Person","name":"PNN","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com/user/pnnindia"},"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Marudhara Bharti English","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com/uploads/logo/logo_6ab9270c36c334-01124948.png"}},"image":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://pnndigital.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/09/PNN-2026-09-23T125049.523.jpg","contentUrl":"https://pnndigital.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/09/PNN-2026-09-23T125049.523.jpg"},"keywords":["Gratitude 84","Lamose Infra LLP","Unique Multigenerational Community","Senior Citizens and Families"]}</script>

Built without institutional capital, Goodman has grown its revenue by 30% annually, from ₹14.1 crore in FY24 to ₹23.6 crore in FY26.\r\nBuilding on this momentum, the brand is targeting ~₹40 crore in revenue by FY27 and ~₹56 crore by FY28. As part of its next phase of expansion, the brand plans to build PAN India presence by opening at least eight new stores across three cities, with an ambition to reach ~₹100 crore in revenue by FY31.\r\nThe expansion will be supported by a focused approach to execution, with new stores targeted to reach breakeven within three to four months, based on the performance of the brand’s last two openings. Goodman Vetcare also plans to commission a warehouse in the new city during the first half of the year, enabling stronger stock availability as the network expands. Teams will be hired and trained ahead of each launch to ensure stores are adequately staffed from day one and can maintain the service standards the brand has built its reputation on.\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nCommenting on the strategic association, Mr. Fredun Medhora, MD &amp;amp; CFO, Fredun Pharmaceuticals Ltd., stated: “Goodman Vetcare has built a strong and trusted position in veterinary and pet-care retail over several decades, with strong customer relationships, category expertise and deep understanding of the veterinary and pet-care ecosystem. We see a significant opportunity to build on this foundation by bringing together Goodman Vetcare’s market strength with FPL’s brands, manufacturing capabilities and broader ecosystem. Our objective is to support Goodman’s next phase of growth and work towards building a stronger, more integrated pet-health platform in India.”\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nFurther adding to this, Mr. Vipul Patil, CEO, Goodman Vetcare Pvt. Ltd., stated: “My father built Goodman one customer at a time, on a simple belief: the value of a life matters more than the value of an order. Thirty-seven years later, that belief still guides every decision we make. We weren’t looking for someone to make us bigger overnight. We wanted a partner who wants to build something that outlasts all of us, and in Fredun, we found one. FPL brings the resources, experience and industry relationships to help us prepare for the scale of business we want to build. Beyond capital, FPL’s experience in building teams and managing operations will be particularly valuable as we expand into new cities. Its pharmaceutical background also brings a strong perspective on supply, quality and operating discipline, which complements our experience at the pharmacy counter. The association gives us the ability to plan further ahead across teams, technology, inventory and infrastructure in a more structured way. With plans to open at least two more stores in Mumbai and our first stores outside Maharashtra by the end of 2027, having the right capabilities and infrastructure in place will be critical to scaling Goodman Chemist sustainably. With this association the pace changes now; the way we work doesn’t.”  \r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nSpeaking on the association, Mr. Vishal Patil, Director, Goodman Vetcare Pvt. Ltd., stated: “Animals can’t tell us what they need, but their families carry that worry for them, often going from one shop to the next and hearing ‘not available’ again and again. Goodman was built to be the last stop in that search. With Fredun, we want to be the first.”\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nFor Goodman Vetcare Pvt. Ltd., the association provides an opportunity to combine the trust, expertise and market relationships built over decades with the resources and capabilities required to scale further. For FPL, it adds an established customer-facing platform and specialised veterinary retail expertise to its growing healthcare and pet-care ecosystem.\r\nTogether, the businesses aim to build on Goodman’s strong foundation, expand its reach and strengthen its position in India’s organised pet-health and veterinary retail market.\r\nAbout Fredun Pharmaceuticals Limited\r\nFredun Pharmaceuticals Limited, healthcare and pharmaceuticals company offer a range of products, including antihypertensives, antidiabetic, antiretroviral drugs (ARVs) and narcotics.

With Chile’s southern hemisphere production season, Indian consumers can enjoy freshly harvested Chilean walnuts at a time when availability from other origins is limited. This makes Chilean walnuts a timely choice as the festive season gets underway, when demand for premium nuts is at its peak.\r\nKnown globally for their exceptional quality, Chilean walnuts are recognized for their freshness, extra-light colour, bigger size and high yield.\r\nMr Jorge Loyola, Trade Commissioner, ProChile, Embassy of Chile in India, said “India has become a strategically important market for Chilean walnuts, and the strong trade relationship we have built is a reflection of the quality, consistency and reliability of Chilean supply. We see significant potential to further deepen this relationship by bringing Chilean walnuts to more Indian consumers and strengthening partnerships across the Indian food and retail sector, particularly as Indian consumers become increasingly conscious of their food choices and the nutritional value of the foods they consume.” he added\r\nSpeaking about the India campaign, Mr. Sumit Saran, In-Country Marketing Representative for Chilean walnuts, said, “We are seeing a demand for Chilean walnuts in India, driven by consumers’ growing preference for fresh, high-quality walnuts. With our counter-seasonal harvest, Chilean walnuts arrive in India from August onwards, just in time for the festive season. We see a strong opportunity to build on this demand and bring the freshness and quality of Chilean walnuts to more Indian consumers.”\r\nWalnuts are among the most nutrient-rich nuts and are a source of plant-based omega-3 fatty acids and antioxidants. They can be a valuable addition to a balanced diet and are widely enjoyed as a snack as well as in sweets, desserts and everyday dishes.\r\nChilean walnuts are now available across the Indian market through leading dry fruit retailers and e-commerce platforms, offering consumers a fresh and nutritious addition to their festive celebrations.\r\nIf you object to the content of this press release, please notify us at pr.error.rectification@gmail.com.

The initiative reflects the company’s focus on building stronger, long-term relationships with its channel partners through recognition, meaningful engagement, shared experiences and conversations around future business opportunities.\r\nA key highlight of the Hong Kong and Macau edition was “The Achievers – R&amp;amp;R 2025-26”, an exclusive Rewards &amp;amp; Recognition evening that celebrated Greenpanel’s top-performing trade partners. The awards recognised partners for their business performance, continued commitment and contribution to the company’s growth.\r\nThe evening also provided an opportunity for Greenpanel to engage with its partners beyond day-to-day business, share its vision for the future and discuss the opportunities emerging across the wood panel industry. These interactions reinforced the importance of a strong and aligned trade partner network as Greenpanel continues to expand its market presence.\r\nAdding to the celebrations was the launch of the Greenpanel Anthem, which captures the shared spirit, pride and ethos of the Greenpanel family. The anthem reflects the company’s belief that its journey forward is driven not only by its products, but also by the strength of its partnerships.\r\nCommenting on the initiative, Mr. Shobhan Mittal, MD &amp;amp; CEO, Greenpanel Industries Ltd, said:\r\n“Our trade partners have been an important part of Greenpanel’s journey, and their contribution goes far beyond business numbers. They have helped us build our presence across markets, understand our customers better and strengthen the trust that Greenpanel stands for. The Privilege Club is a small way of expressing our gratitude and celebrating what we have achieved together. As we look ahead, we see significant opportunities for growth, and our partners will continue to play a very important role in that journey. We want to build on this relationship with greater trust, shared ambition and a strong commitment to mutual growth.”\r\nThe Hong Kong and Macau experience brought together Greenpanel’s trade partners in an informal setting, creating opportunities for networking, conversations and shared experiences outside the traditional business environment. From curated experiences across both destinations to the R&amp;amp;R evening, the initiative was designed to celebrate the people behind the partnership and create lasting memories.\r\nThe second edition of Privilege Club reflects Greenpanel’s broader approach to trade partner engagement – recognising performance while nurturing relationships that can drive sustainable, long-term growth.\r\nAs Greenpanel continues to strengthen its portfolio, expand its market presence and explore new opportunities, its trade partner network will remain an integral part of its growth strategy.

Punit Nehra of Pilani, Jhunjhunu has won the title of Mr. Rajasthan 2026 – Season 5, which the organisers describe as the state&#039;s biggest male pageant. The grand finale was held on September 13, 2026, at Hotel Trade International on Ajmer Road, Jaipur, and brought a three-day event to a close.\r\nThe pageant was organised by Infinity Takeovers Production House under the direction of Show Director Anup Choudhary. Around 3,000 young men from across Rajasthan auditioned this year, and only 33 made it to the finalist list. That works out to a selection rate of about one percent, which shows how much of the contest was decided before the finale began.\r\nOver the three days, the finalists were assessed on far more than their looks on the ramp. The rounds included Talent, Fitness, Question &amp;amp; Answer, Self Styling, Swimwear, Professional Shoots, Walk, Trunk and Traditional. Together they tested skill, physical conditioning, communication and how well each contestant could present himself.\r\n\r\n\r\nBehind Punit Nehra on the podium, Shailesh Joshi of Jodhpur finished as 1st Runner-Up, Shankar Meena of Jaipur as 2nd Runner-Up, Jitendra Choudhary of Nagaur as 3rd Runner-Up and Mehant Kumar of Jaipur as 4th Runner-Up. The top five come from four different districts, so the podium was not dominated by any one city.\r\nNehra is also active on social media as a content creator and influencer. He makes blogs and videos on motivation, daily life and personal experiences, aimed at delivering a positive message to young viewers. His win reflects a wider pattern in which creators from smaller towns, who build an audience online first, are now moving onto larger stages such as pageants.\r\nSpeaking about the purpose of the event, Anup Choudhary said professional platforms where young men in Rajasthan can showcase their talent, personality and confidence at scale are still few. He said Mr. Rajasthan was built to fill that gap. In his words, it is not merely a title contest but an effort to give direction to the dreams of young people.\r\nThe fact that the pageant has reached its fifth season suggests it has become a recurring platform rather than a one-time event. The organisers say the platform can open doors in modelling, films and the wider entertainment industry, and that winners get a chance to represent Rajasthan at the national level. As the new title-holder, Nehra will now carry that responsibility, and how far these opportunities take him will become clearer in the months ahead.","articleSection":"Rajasthan","datePublished":"2026-09-22T20:59:36+0530","dateModified":"2026-09-22T20:59:51+0530","inLanguage":"en-us","author":{"@type":"Person","name":"SCNWire","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com/user/scnwire"},"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Marudhara Bharti English","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com/uploads/logo/logo_6ab9270c36c334-01124948.png"}},"image":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiYasr1S0j6uGQdmoFoQb2pkf2weE7LD9RVseEN4dZ2qgmjKH87YehWR-Ld-MMhGB-OQd4mhutfce2dYgJj-04iK1vVNQyvR3L5yvU6uIwjDbnwS1HkX75GU02TIWiON1Jv-EyEqnvP-TwXxwKJwFwehgnemZtL4yF2xIUVNgqO-FeHvxV0rG2x3lkZpoo/w1600/Puneet%20Nehra.webp","contentUrl":"https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiYasr1S0j6uGQdmoFoQb2pkf2weE7LD9RVseEN4dZ2qgmjKH87YehWR-Ld-MMhGB-OQd4mhutfce2dYgJj-04iK1vVNQyvR3L5yvU6uIwjDbnwS1HkX75GU02TIWiON1Jv-EyEqnvP-TwXxwKJwFwehgnemZtL4yF2xIUVNgqO-FeHvxV0rG2x3lkZpoo/w1600/Puneet%20Nehra.webp"},"keywords":["Mr.","Rajasthan","2026:","Punit","Nehra","Pilani","Crowned"]}</script>

Designed around the evolving needs of senior citizens and modern families, the project is envisioned as a secure, comfortable and enriching community where senior citizens can enjoy an independent lifestyle or live together with their children and grandchildren.\r\nThe name “Gratitude 84” reflects the core philosophy of the project—gratitude and respect for senior citizens who have dedicated a significant part of their lives to their families and society. The project aims to provide them with a dignified, safe, healthy and comfortable environment where they can enjoy a fulfilling life with modern facilities, professional care and a strong sense of community.\r\nImportantly, Gratitude 84 is not envisioned as a community exclusively for senior citizens living separately from their families. It is designed to provide flexibility for different family needs. Senior citizens can choose to live independently while having access to support, care and community facilities, or they can live together with their children and grandchildren, creating a comfortable multigenerational living environment where families can stay connected while enjoying modern amenities.\r\nThe project is being envisioned as a distinctive senior-focused residential development that brings together healthcare, safety, care, wellness, recreation and community living under one integrated development. The objective is to create more than just a residential space by offering an environment designed around the physical, emotional and social well-being of senior citizens and their families.\r\nOne of the key features of the project is its planned healthcare and medical support system. Keeping the health requirements of senior citizens in mind, the project includes provisions for 24×7 medical assistance, medical facilities, a medical room, emergency support and life-saving facilities. The development also focuses on provisions for doctor availability and nursing assistance whenever required.\r\nAn emergency assistance button is also planned to enable residents to seek immediate help during critical situations. The facility is intended to make emergency support quicker and more accessible for senior residents, while providing their families with greater peace of mind.\r\nThe project is also planned with a range of lifestyle and wellness facilities, including a meditation centre, yoga and fitness facilities, clubhouse, swimming pool, walking tracks, library, indoor games and community spaces. These amenities are designed not only for senior residents but also to encourage interaction and engagement among family members across generations.\r\nGratitude 84 aims to create a living environment where senior citizens can experience comfortable housing, care, companionship, independence and peace of mind, while families can continue to share everyday moments under one roof. Whether seniors choose to live independently or with their children and grandchildren, the project is envisioned to provide an environment that supports both choices.\r\nThe concept also recognises the changing needs of today’s families. With children often living in different cities or managing demanding professional lives, families increasingly seek living spaces where senior parents can have access to safety, healthcare and community facilities without losing their independence or connection with their loved ones. Gratitude 84 seeks to address this need through an integrated community-based approach.\r\nLocated in Sector 84, Gurugram, Gratitude 84 also benefits from its strategic location, with proximity to the Dwarka Expressway and major connectivity routes, providing convenient access to key parts of Gurugram and the National Capital Region.\r\nEnvironmental considerations have also been incorporated into the project planning, with emphasis on green spaces, natural light and improved ventilation to create a healthier and more pleasant living environment.\r\nThe Bhoomi Pujan ceremony was attended by CEO Bhaswar Paul, Vice President – Sales &amp;amp; Operations Anil Bajaj, Promoter Ashok Kumar, Pawan Dhaiya and Garvit Gupta, along with several prominent personalities from the industry.\r\nThe company’s vision is to create a place where senior citizens can experience respect, security, independence and a sense of belonging, while their children and grandchildren can also enjoy the benefits of living in a thoughtfully planned community. The project aims to bring together generations while giving every family the flexibility to choose the living arrangement that works best for them.\r\nThe Bhoomi Pujan marks an important milestone in the development of Gratitude 84, presenting a new approach to senior living and retirement communities—one where homes are complemented by healthcare, wellness, recreation, care and family-oriented community living.\r\nWith Gratitude 84, Lamose Infra LLP aims to take a meaningful step towards creating a safe, healthy, dignified and fulfilling lifestyle for senior citizens, while building a community where families and generations can live together—or independently—according to their individual needs and choices.\r\nIf you object to the content of this press release, please notify us at pr.error.rectification@gmail.com.

A digital-first claims experience can make this stage easier by bringing essential actions within closer reach. HDFC ERGO is strengthening this journey through online claim registration, digital document handling, tracking and customer support.\r\nThe approach keeps convenience at the centre while maintaining the checks needed for responsible claim assessment. For policyholders, greater accessibility can make the claims journey feel more organised, transparent and manageable.\r\nHDFC ERGO’s Digital Claims Process\r\nHDFC ERGO has built a connected digital claims process that helps customers manage important steps through accessible servicing channels. When a household relies on a health insurance policy for family healthcare needs, convenient digital access to claim services can make coordination easier during treatment and recovery.\r\nCustomers can register claims online, submit relevant information and follow progress through available digital platforms. The process aims to make claim-related actions more convenient while ensuring that assessment continues according to policy terms, documentation requirements and applicable conditions.\r\nEasy Online Claim Filing with HDFC ERGO\r\nStarting a claim can feel demanding when attention is already focused on medical care. HDFC ERGO supports online claim registration through its digital servicing ecosystem, allowing policyholders to begin the process without unnecessary difficulty.\r\nCustomers can provide the required details through the available digital route and move ahead with the claim journey more conveniently. Online filing adds flexibility while keeping accuracy important, since correct information and complete documentation remain essential for the insurer to assess the claim appropriately throughout the assessment.\r\nSimple Document Submission\r\nDocuments play an important role in claim assessment, and digital submission can make this responsibility easier to manage. HDFC ERGO allows customers to upload relevant claim documents through its digital channels when required. Keeping discharge summaries, medical records, bills, prescriptions and supporting information organised can help the process move more smoothly.\r\nThe exact documents needed may vary depending on the treatment and claim circumstances, so policyholders should follow the specific requirements communicated during the claim process for every submission carefully.\r\nQuick Claim Status Tracking\r\nWaiting for a claim update can create uncertainty, especially when a family is also managing treatment and recovery. HDFC ERGO offers digital claim tracking and status communication that helps customers stay informed as the claim progresses.\r\nThis visibility can make it easier to understand whether additional information is needed or whether the claim has moved to another stage. By making updates easier to access, the digital journey supports a more informed and convenient experience for policyholders throughout the process online.\r\nDigital Support during Claims\r\nQuestions can arise at different stages of a claim, making timely access to support important. HDFC ERGO provides digital servicing through platforms such as the Here app, website support options, chatbot and WhatsApp-based assistance.\r\nThese channels give customers more ways to seek information, complete routine servicing actions and understand the next steps in their claim journey. Digital support adds convenience while continuing to complement assisted service, helping customers choose the channel that feels most practical for their needs during claims.\r\nCashless Claims Made Easier\r\nCashless health claims can become more convenient when the hospital and insurer coordinate directly during the process. At a network hospital, the hospital sends the pre-authorisation request and relevant medical information to HDFC ERGO for review.\r\nThis arrangement can reduce the need for customers to manage every administrative step themselves while they focus on treatment. Cashless approval remains subject to policy terms, medical details, documentation and claim assessment, ensuring that convenience continues alongside appropriate review and verification at every stage.\r\nFaster and Smoother Claim Processing\r\nDigital servicing can support smoother claim handling by allowing information to move through defined and accessible channels. HDFC ERGO combines online claim registration, document submission and digital status updates to create greater continuity across the claims journey.\r\nWhen customers provide accurate information and respond promptly to document requests, the process can become easier to manage. Actual processing timelines may still vary depending on claim complexity, verification requirements and documentation, making complete and timely submissions important throughout the assessment process overall.\r\nHow HDFC ERGO Improves Customer Convenience\r\nCustomer convenience in insurance is not only about speed. It is also about making important actions easier to understand, access and complete when people need them most. HDFC ERGO brings claim servicing and support into digital platforms, giving policyholders more flexibility in managing information, tracking progress and seeking assistance.\r\nThis customer-focused approach helps reduce unnecessary friction while keeping access to assisted support available whenever a claim requires further clarification, documentation or guidance from the insurer’s service teams throughout the journey.\r\nConclusion\r\nDigital convenience is becoming an important part of health insurance claims, where customers value clarity, accessibility and dependable communication. HDFC ERGO’s digital-first approach connects claim registration, document submission, status tracking, support and cashless coordination within a more convenient journey. By combining accessible technology with appropriate claim assessment, HDFC ERGO continues to improve customer convenience while helping policyholders manage important claim-related steps with greater ease, visibility and confidence throughout the process.\r\nIf you object to the content of this press release, please notify us at pr.error.rectification@gmail.com.

India currently contributes an estimated 10% of the firm’s global revenues, with this expected to double over the coming year. The firm is expanding its capabilities across CXO and executive search, board succession advisory and planning, digital and consumer leadership, technology, fintech, GCCs and cross-border leadership.\r\nCommenting on the new appointment and Archer &amp;amp; Bull’s plans to strengthen its India leadership and scale operations globally, Rajat Mehra, Founder, Archer &amp;amp; Bull, said, “India is today a global leadership hub, producing CEOs, technology leaders, digital transformation specialists and business builders who are taking on larger mandates across markets. For Archer &amp;amp; Bull, India is both a strategic growth market and an important part of our global leadership proposition.”\r\n“As we scale and penetrate across new markets and verticals, Parag’s combination of working in large-scale enterprises across the Middle East and India will help our growth immensely. His experience as CHRO in his previous roles, will not only bring a rich client-side perspective but also an understanding of global leadership hiring, providing invaluable strength in supporting our next phase of growth”, he added.\r\nPatil brings extensive experience, having led in senior roles across diverse domains including IT, retail, FMCG and fintech among others. He served in in leading organisations such as Fathima Group of Companies, Unikai and Wadzpay in his previous experience. In his new role at Archer &amp;amp; Bull, he will strengthen the firm’s operational scale, organisational capabilities and execution, as it expands its business across South Asia.\r\nParag Patil, COO, India, Archer &amp;amp; Bull, said, “Leadership hiring is undergoing a fundamental shift as organisations look beyond conventional credentials, for leaders who can navigate transformation, build new capabilities and create measurable business impact. Archer &amp;amp; Bull has an opportunity to be at the centre of this change, combining deep market understanding with a global perspective on leadership. I look forward to building on this foundation and helping scale the firm’s India business.”\r\nArcher &amp;amp; Bull’s India growth comes as executive hiring becomes more strategic. AI-led transformation, the expansion of GCCs, digital business models and increasing cross-border talent movement are changing the capabilities organisations expect from senior leaders. The firm is consequently positioning its practice beyond traditional executive recruitment, with a stronger focus on leadership advisory, transformational leadership and cross-border mandates.\r\nArcher &amp;amp; Bull has undertaken strategic mandates for organisations including Nykaa and Tata Group companies such as Trent and Westside, particularly across digital leadership, growth and transformation roles. Its India expansion will strengthen its consultant network and sector-specialist capabilities across technology, consumer, retail, fintech, digital businesses, and GCCs, while leveraging its international network for cross-border leadership mandates.\r\nAbout Archer &amp;amp; Bull\r\nFounded in 2014, Archer &amp;amp; Bull is a global executive search and leadership advisory firm specialising in senior leadership and CXO search, cross-border leadership hiring, expatriate talent solutions and strategic boardroom appointments. Headquartered in Dubai, the firm has a presence across the Middle East, India, Africa and South Asia and has operated in India since 2015, with teams in Dubai, Singapore, Gurugram and Bengaluru.\r\nIf you object to the content of this press release, please notify us at pr.error.rectification@gmail.com.

The centre, which has served the neighbourhood for several years, now has a larger therapy area, additional Panchakarma rooms and refreshed consultation spaces, allowing it to care for more guests through the day.\r\nFor most families in Ahmedabad, Ayurveda is not unfamiliar. It arrives through a grandmother’s advice, a spoon of ghee, a household remedy passed down without ceremony. What the expanded centre offers is that same understanding placed on a structured footing — a qualified doctor who assesses, a considered recommendation, and trained therapists who follow established protocols.\r\nConsultations and therapy explanations are offered in Gujarati, Hindi or English, as the guest prefers.\r\nThe care journey begins with a consultation that includes Nadi Pariksha, the traditional reading of the pulse. Based on that assessment, the doctor recommends an appropriate combination and duration of therapies rather than a fixed menu. Guidance continues after the sessions end, so that what is learned at the centre carries into an everyday routine at home.\r\nThe Satellite centre provides Nadi Pariksha and doctor consultations, along with Ayurveda therapies including Abhyanga, Shirodhara, Swedana and Nasya. Its expanded facilities support Panchakarma programmes ranging from shorter courses to longer, doctor-guided ones. Also available are Netra Tejas, a traditional approach to eye wellness that may support those spending long hours at a screen, and Osteopathy, a complementary hands-on approach offered alongside — not as part of — the centre’s Ayurvedic services. Sri Sri Tattva medicines and Shankara skincare products are available on site.\r\nGuests visiting the centre most commonly seek support across Stress &amp;amp; Sleep, Back, Neck &amp;amp; Joints, Digestion &amp;amp; Gut Health, Women’s Wellbeing, and Metabolic &amp;amp; Lifestyle Balance. The consulting doctor determines the appropriate approach in each case.\r\nThe approach is built around the individual rather than a standardised package of therapies — an unhurried consultation first, and a recommendation that fits the person in front of the doctor.\r\nThe expanded Satellite centre brings traditional Ayurvedic practice together with a structured care environment. Dedicated spaces for consultation, therapy and Panchakarma allow a broader range of programmes to run without crowding, with qualified doctors overseeing consultations and trained therapists delivering therapies according to established protocols.\r\nThe reopening strengthens Sri Sri Wellbeing’s presence in Gujarat and connects Ahmedabad guests to its wider network. The organisation operates 19 centres across 11 states in India, along with centres in the US, Germany, the UAE, Oman, Mongolia and Nigeria.\r\n","articleSection":"Business","datePublished":"2026-09-21T19:12:17+0530","dateModified":"2026-09-21T19:18:55+0530","inLanguage":"en-us","author":{"@type":"Person","name":"PNN","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com/user/pnnindia"},"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Marudhara Bharti English","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com/uploads/logo/logo_6ab9270c36c334-01124948.png"}},"image":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://pnndigital.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/09/PNN-2026-09-21T181635.604.jpg","contentUrl":"https://pnndigital.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/09/PNN-2026-09-21T181635.604.jpg"},"keywords":["Sri Sri Wellbeing","Satellite centre","doctor-led Ayurveda closer","Ahmedabad homes"]}</script>

Periwinkle Technologies, an Indian health-tech company specialising in AI-enabled cervical cancer screening and triage, showcased its flagship Smart Scope® CX at the BRICS Bharat Innovates Exposition at Bharat Mandapam, New Delhi.\r\nThe company’s co-founders Veena Moktali and Koustubh Naik had the opportunity to present Smart Scope® CX to Hon’ble Prime Minister Narendra Modi and visiting BRICS leaders during their visit to the exposition. Periwinkle Technologies said the presentation demonstrated how its AI-enabled technology combines cervical imaging and artificial intelligence to support rapid cervical cancer risk assessment and subsequent clinical decision-making.\r\nThe high-profile exposition brought together 37 Indian deep-tech startups and ventures, selected from the original cohort of 120 participants in Bharat Innovates 2026. Organised by the Ministry of Education in coordination with the Ministry of External Affairs, the event formed part of India’s BRICS 2026 programme and created a platform for Indian innovators to engage with international leaders, investors, businesses and technology partners.\r\nDuring the BRICS leaders’ visit, Prime Minister Narendra Modi, Chinese President Xi Jinping, Russian President Vladimir Putin, South African President Cyril Ramaphosa, Indonesian President Prabowo Subianto and other BRICS representatives were among the leaders associated with the high-level BRICS engagements in New Delhi. The exposition showcased Indian innovations spanning healthcare, AI, quantum technology, robotics, biotechnology, semiconductors, space and advanced technologies.\r\nAt the Periwinkle Technologies showcase, Moktali and Naik explained how Smart Scope® CX is designed to bring AI-enabled cervical cancer screening and triage closer to women, including communities where specialist healthcare and diagnostic infrastructure may be limited. The company says its platform combines medical imaging, AI and connected healthcare to enable rapid cervical cancer risk assessment.\r\nThe significance is considerable. Cervical cancer remains a major women’s health challenge, particularly where screening access, specialist availability and continuity of care remain limited. Periwinkle’s approach focuses on shortening the journey from screening and imaging to risk assessment and appropriate clinical follow-up.\r\nFor a company that began its journey in Pune, the BRICS platform represents a defining moment in its international journey. Periwinkle Technologies says its technology has already been used to screen more than 500,000 women across multiple countries, reinforcing its ambition to take Indian MedTech beyond domestic markets.\r\n“Presenting our India-developed Smart Scope® CX to Hon’ble Prime Minister Narendra Modi and the BRICS leaders was an immensely proud and emotional moment for us,” said Veena Moktali. “Although we have reached a global platform, our fundamental mission remains unchanged—to help ensure that every woman, irrespective of where she lives, has access to timely and quality screening.”\r\nFor Koustubh Naik, the moment represents both recognition and responsibility: an opportunity to take Indian medical technology to more countries and communities.\r\nFrom Pune to Bharat Mandapam, Periwinkle Technologies is now carrying a larger message: Indian deep-tech can be built for India—and designed to address challenges faced by women around the world.\r\nWebsite: https://www.periwinkletech.com/Media Contact: info@periwinkletech.comMedia Partner: Hi Fuel Media\r\nIf you object to the content of this press release, please notify us at pr.error.rectification@gmail.com.

But before completing the purchase, insurance deserves the same attention as the vehicle’s condition, service history and documents.\r\nHDFC ERGO believes buyers should check the existing policy early, understand what it covers and know what needs to be updated after ownership changes. A simple car insurance checklist can make this process easier and help buyers move ahead with significant confidence.\r\nStart With the Existing Policy Status\r\nBefore agreeing to the purchase, the buyer should first confirm whether the vehicle has an active car insurance policy. The policy document should match the car’s registration number, model, variant and other key details.\r\nIt is also important to check the policy start and expiry dates and verify the name of the current policyholder. This first check helps establish whether the car is currently insured and whether any immediate action may be required after purchase.\r\nKnow What Type of Cover Comes with the Car\r\nThe next step is to understand whether the vehicle carries only third-party insurance or a comprehensive policy. The distinction matters because third-party cover mainly deals with legal liabilities towards others, while comprehensive cover may also protect against eligible own-damage events, subject to policy terms.\r\nBuyers should not assume that an existing policy automatically offers wider protection. Knowing the exact cover can help them decide whether the current policy is sufficient for their needs.\r\nConfirm How the Policy Will Be Transferred\r\nInsurance transfer is an important part of changing vehicle ownership. Once the car is sold, the policy details also need to reflect the new owner. Buyers should understand what documents are required, how soon the transfer should be completed and whether any inspection is needed.\r\nHDFC ERGO car insurance customers can review the applicable transfer process and policy conditions so the insurance record is updated along with the vehicle ownership documents.\r\nReview the IDV Before You Take Over the Policy\r\nThe insured declared value, or IDV, deserves attention when a comprehensive policy is involved. It represents the value considered for certain total-loss or theft claims, subject to policy terms.\r\nFor a second-hand car, buyers should check whether the IDV appears reasonable for the vehicle’s age, condition and current market position. A value that seems unusually high or low may affect both the premium and the financial outcome in specific claim situations.\r\nLook Closely at Existing Add-ons\r\nOptional add-ons can make a policy more useful, but their relevance may change as the car gets older. A used vehicle may already have benefits such as zero depreciation, roadside assistance or engine protection.\r\nBuyers should check which add-ons are currently included, whether they remain available after transfer and whether they suit the car’s age and usage. This can prevent unnecessary spending while also revealing where additional protection may be useful.\r\nAsk About the Car’s Claim History\r\nPrevious insurance claims can offer useful context about the vehicle. Buyers should ask whether the car has been involved in major accidents, whether expensive parts were replaced and whether any claim is still pending.\r\nA previous claim does not automatically make the car a poor choice, but it can encourage a closer inspection of repair quality and replaced components. Claim history can therefore support a more informed purchase decision alongside the usual mechanical checks.\r\nUnderstand the No Claim Bonus Position\r\nNo-claim bonus is linked to the policyholder and does not simply move to the buyer with the vehicle. This means the premium visible under the seller’s policy may not remain the same after ownership transfer. Buyers should account for this while estimating future insurance costs.\r\nHDFC ERGO advises checking the applicable premium structure and policy terms after the transfer so there are no surprises when the policy is updated or renewed.\r\nPlan for Renewal Before the Current Policy Ends\r\nA valid policy today does not mean the same cover will remain suitable at renewal. Buyers should use the transfer period to compare coverage, deductibles, add-ons, IDV, garage access and premium options for the next policy term.\r\nThis makes insurance part of the ownership plan rather than an afterthought. For anyone buying a second-hand car, the right checklist is not only about paperwork. It is about knowing what cover exists, what needs to change and what the car may cost to insure going forward.\r\nIf you object to the content of this press release, please notify us at pr.error.rectification@gmail.com.

With more than eight in ten respondents expecting a stable or improved season, industry sentiment remains constructive.\r\nRetailer activity is also supporting this outlook. Strong bookings at CMAI’s recently concluded National Garment Fairs indicate that retailers are preparing inventory ahead of the festive period, creating a supportive environment for apparel manufacturers and brands across key categories.\r\nKey Trends Emerging For The 2026 Festive Season\r\nIndian wear remains the strongest festive category, with 45% of survey respondents identifying salwar suits, churidars and kurtas as the category expected to witness the strongest growth.\r\nAt the same time, western casual wear is emerging as another important growth driver, particularly across products such as T-shirts and denims. This is relevant for Forcas Studio, where western casual categories form a significant part of its core FTX portfolio.\r\nThe industry is also witnessing an ongoing shift towards online apparel consumption. Online channels currently account for around 12% of apparel sales, and the CMAI survey indicates expectations of further growth in this share, highlighting the increasing importance of digital channels during the festive shopping cycle.\r\nMeanwhile, raw material costs remain an area of industry focus. Around 54% of surveyed companies are absorbing higher input costs, while only around 35% have increased prices. This places greater importance on sourcing efficiency, cost management and business models that can protect competitiveness while maintaining consumer price points.\r\nForcas Studio’s Positioning Across The Growth Opportunities\r\nThe two structural trends of particular relevance to Forcas Studio – western casual wear and the continued expansion of online apparel buying – are already embedded within the Company’s business model.\r\nForcas Studio operates as a menswear-focused, asset-light business, combining its own brands with white-label manufacturing for large retail chains.\r\nIts flagship FTX brand spans more than 14 menswear categories, including T-shirts, denims, trousers, cargos, trackpants, shorts, cord sets, jackets and sweatshirts. More than 95% of FTX products are priced between ₹199 and ₹599, positioning the brand in the value segment.\r\nThe Company’s newer TRIBE brand targets Gen Z consumers in the ₹499–₹1,499 price range, while the core customer base remains concentrated among younger consumers across Tier 2 to Tier 4 markets.\r\nThis positioning provides Forcas with exposure to multiple channels as festive apparel demand builds.\r\nA Multi-Channel Distribution Network\r\nRetail distribution:\r\nForcas currently reaches the market through more than 700 distributors and semi-wholesalers, 18,000+ retailers and 500+ large-format stores across India.\r\nDigital commerce:\r\nThe Company is present across 15+ e-commerce marketplaces, with coverage extending to more than 21,000 pin codes and over 8 million online customers served cumulatively.\r\nQuick commerce:\r\nFTX has expanded its presence across quick-commerce platforms, including Zepto across 138 stores with 100+ SKUs, M-Now and Booon, while the brand was also launched on Flipkart Minutes with effect from July 29, 2026. The channel enables delivery in as little as 10–20 minutes.\r\nSupply-chain and sourcing capabilities:\r\nForcas operates a 60,000 sq. ft. central warehouse in Kolkata, supported by 11 marketplace warehouses. Its in-house design team can take a new design to market in approximately 18 days, while direct sourcing helps reduce intermediary layers in the supply chain.\r\nKey Opportunities For The Festive Season\r\n1. Exposure to Western Casual Wear Growth\r\nWestern casual wear, including T-shirts, denims and trousers, is identified as one of the key growth categories for the festive season. These categories already form the core of the FTX product portfolio, allowing Forcas to participate in this opportunity through its existing product and distribution platform.\r\n2. Wider Retail Reach and Festive Restocking\r\nStrong retailer bookings ahead of the festive season indicate early inventory preparation across the trade. Forcas is simultaneously expanding its distribution network, with a target of 800 distributors and 25,000+ retailers by March 2027. A wider retail footprint can increase the number of customer touchpoints available for its brands.\r\n3. Continued Shift Towards Online Apparel\r\nWith online channels gaining a larger role in apparel consumption, Forcas’ existing marketplace presence provides an established route to participate in this structural shift. Its presence across 15+ marketplaces and coverage of 21,000+ pin codes allows the Company to expand digital availability without relying solely on incremental physical-store expansion.\r\n4. Quick Commerce Opens an Additional Consumption Occasion\r\nFestive shopping can include immediate and last-minute purchases. Forcas’ expanding presence on quick-commerce platforms creates an additional distribution channel for FTX and provides access to consumers seeking faster fulfilment.\r\n5. Value-Led Portfolio Amid Input-Cost Pressure\r\nWith input costs remaining an industry concern, the Company’s predominantly ₹199–₹599 FTX price architecture is focused on the value-conscious consumer segment. At the operating level, its asset-light structure, in-house design capabilities, direct sourcing and centralised warehousing provide multiple levers for managing costs and maintaining price competitiveness.\r\n6. White-Label Business and Portfolio Expansion\r\nForcas’ white-label manufacturing relationships with retail partners including Landmark Group, V-Mart Retail and V2 Retail provide another avenue to participate in festive inventory replenishment.\r\nAt the same time, the launch of women’s wear and kids’ wear under FTX expands the Company’s addressable product basket and provides an opportunity to participate in broader family apparel purchases.\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nCommenting on the industry outlook, Mr. Sailesh Agarwal, Managing Director, Forcas Studio Limited, said, “The apparel industry is entering the festive season with a positive outlook, and the latest CMAI survey provides a clear indication of this sentiment. Strong retailer bookings and expectations of stable to higher sales point towards a constructive season ahead. What is particularly relevant for Forcas is the expected growth in western casual wear and the continued development of online apparel consumption. These are areas where we already have an established product portfolio, distribution network and digital presence. Our objective is to make our brands available wherever the consumer chooses to shop – through neighbourhood retailers, large-format stores, e-commerce marketplaces and increasingly through quick commerce. This multi-channel approach, combined with our value-oriented product portfolio, gives us multiple avenues to participate in the festive demand cycle. At the same time, we remain focused on operational efficiency as the industry manages raw material cost pressures. Our asset-light model, direct sourcing, in-house design capabilities and centralised warehousing provide us with the flexibility to manage the business efficiently while continuing to offer products at accessible price points. As we enter the festive season, our focus remains on strengthening distribution, expanding digital reach, improving speed-to-market and delivering relevant fashion at attractive price points. We believe these priorities position Forcas Studio well to participate in the opportunities emerging across the Indian apparel market.”\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nAbout Forcas Studio Limited\r\nFORCAS STUDIO LIMITED is into Menswear and deals in men’s garments such as Shirts, Denims, T-shirts, trousers, Cotton pants, sports-wear, party-wear, fashion wear, boxers etc. and cater pan India through online and wholesale in our own brand and also white-labelling for other brands.

One teacher hasn&#039;t. In front of her: 42 exam scripts, a red pen, and a weekend she was hoping to keep.\r\nEvery teacher knows this scene because marking well takes time that the school day never quite has. Read an answer. Judge it against a mark scheme. Write something more useful than a tick. Repeat, forty more times. Then do it again for the next class.\r\nThis is the part of school assessment nobody puts in the prospectus. And it&#039;s the part inLens, Precision assessment and learning Intelligence by Ulipsu was built to fix.\r\nWhy Grading Takes Longer Than the Exam Itself\r\nAsk any principal what eats into a teacher&#039;s week, and marking will come up before almost anything else. An exam might run two hours. Grading it properly — consistently, fairly, with feedback that actually helps a student improve — can take days.\r\nThat time has to come from somewhere. Usually, it&#039;s taken from lesson planning. Sometimes from the one-to-one attention a struggling student needs most.\r\nIt&#039;s a trade-off no school chooses on purpose. It just happens, exam after exam, term after term.\r\nWhat If the Exam Didn&#039;t Have to Change — Just What Happens After It?\r\nHere&#039;s the question worth sitting with: does fixing this actually require replacing the exam itself?\r\nMost EdTech answers say yes — put students on devices, redesign the test, retrain everyone. inLens answers differently. Students still sit the exam on paper, exactly as they always have. Nothing changes for the child in the room.\r\nWhat changes happens afterwards. Teachers scan and upload the answer sheets. From there, inLens takes over the evaluation — checking, marking, and applying the same standard across every script in the class. According to Ulipsu&#039;s own data, that can cut grading time by 70–80%, with a full class evaluated in minutes rather than days.\r\nNo new devices. No new exam format. Just a very old bottleneck, finally addressed.\r\nA Mark Tells You What. It Doesn&#039;t Tell You Why.\r\nPicture a class of 35 students sitting the same maths paper. Fifteen of them score poorly.\r\nA traditional mark sheet stops there. It won&#039;t tell you if those fifteen struggled with the same concept, or fifteen different ones. It won&#039;t tell you whether the problem is one student&#039;s gap — or the whole class needing the topic retaught.\r\ninLens goes further. Every student gets feedback that names their specific strengths and gaps, not just a number. And because the platform sees every script, it can surface patterns a single teacher, marking alone at 6 p.m. on a Friday, might not have time to spot.\r\nThat&#039;s the real shift. The exam stops being a full stop. It becomes a starting point for what gets taught next.\r\nFrom &quot;Teach, Test, Move On&quot; to a Loop That Actually Closes\r\nMost classrooms run on a familiar rhythm: teach, test, grade, move on. The test rarely loops back into the teaching.\r\ninLens is built to close that loop. When a student keeps struggling with the same concept, the platform can generate targeted practice for exactly that gap — before it compounds into a bigger problem three terms later.\r\nFor teachers, that turns raw marks into something actionable. For school leaders, it means academic patterns are visible across a class or a year group without weeks of manually compiling spreadsheets. For parents, it means a report card that finally says more than a number out of 100.\r\nAssessment Doesn&#039;t Have to Start From Scratch, Either\r\nThe workload problem doesn&#039;t begin at grading. It often starts earlier, with teachers building question papers from scratch, balancing difficulty and syllabus coverage almost entirely by hand.\r\ninLens supports that end too — generating curriculum-aligned question papers to a school&#039;s own specifications, so teachers keep control over what&#039;s being tested without building every paper from a blank page.\r\nPut together, one platform now spans the full arc: create the paper, run the exam on paper as usual, upload the scripts, evaluate them, personalise the feedback, and act on what the results reveal.\r\nSo What Do Teachers Actually Do With the Time Back?\r\nThis is the question that matters more than any efficiency statistic.\r\nMarking dozens of near-identical scripts is necessary. It is not where a teacher&#039;s real skill lives. That skill shows up in a different moment — explaining, patiently, for the third time, why a concept isn&#039;t clicking. Adapting a lesson overnight because half the class missed the point. Noticing which student has gone quiet, and why.\r\nThat work doesn&#039;t automate. It doesn&#039;t scale. And it&#039;s exactly the work that gets squeezed out when Friday evenings disappear into a marking pile.\r\nIf a school assessment platform can hand teachers those hours back, the real return isn&#039;t measured in minutes saved. It&#039;s measured in what a teacher chooses to do with them.\r\nThe exam hall doesn&#039;t change. Students still walk in, take the paper, and write their answers exactly as generations of students have before them.\r\nWhat&#039;s different is everything that happens after they put the pen down.\r\nAbout Ulipsu\r\nUlipsu is a K–10 future-skills and learning innovation ecosystem, working with more than 350 partner schools across India and the Middle East to build future-ready learners through skills, technology, and measurable learning outcomes. Operating since 2017, Ulipsu has reached more than 1 million children and trained thousands of teachers.\r\n","articleSection":"Lifestyle","datePublished":"2026-09-21T16:58:46+0530","dateModified":"2026-09-21T17:01:03+0530","inLanguage":"en-us","author":{"@type":"Person","name":"Correspondent Desk","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com/user/marudharabharti"},"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Marudhara Bharti English","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com/uploads/logo/logo_6ab9270c36c334-01124948.png"}},"image":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiolcrihetNDyHWN3thnfFZ_EuwMzGYhpz2JZ8tbCFjNNpvTVfm92brLY4F-i_Z4MDmv6Wtx2bpVx1bRvm6sIZygqYW1KZgV4-x_nLCmYGxcpoPQstJ47ExOzSLIKZTj3b7pYtU_-Y14YqJhFDcVLUzaI1lFh3FPjwoW7tFrShQwtsIMIOM3iWankkX2N9p/w1600/PNN-2026-09-19T121241.102%20(1).jpg","contentUrl":"https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiolcrihetNDyHWN3thnfFZ_EuwMzGYhpz2JZ8tbCFjNNpvTVfm92brLY4F-i_Z4MDmv6Wtx2bpVx1bRvm6sIZygqYW1KZgV4-x_nLCmYGxcpoPQstJ47ExOzSLIKZTj3b7pYtU_-Y14YqJhFDcVLUzaI1lFh3FPjwoW7tFrShQwtsIMIOM3iWankkX2N9p/w1600/PNN-2026-09-19T121241.102%20(1).jpg"},"keywords":["Inside","Ulipsus","inLens:","The","School","Assessment","Tool","Giving","Teachers","Their","Evenings","Back"]}</script>

HAR is being developed around a different idea: people should also be able to participate directly in how AI systems are improved, understand what they contribute, give clear consent, and receive value.\r\nAt its core, HAR is intended to establish that a real human participated in a contribution or provided consent, while supporting selective disclosure so people do not necessarily need to expose more personal information than required for a specific purpose.\r\nThe aim is to create a trusted layer between people and AI projects: one where human participation can be verified, consent recorded clearly, and contributors can benefit from that verification.\r\n“AI is being built from human knowledge, behaviour, language, images, voices and real-world experience, but ordinary people rarely have a direct way to participate in that process,” said Jythesh T Achary, Technical Director at MotionGravity. “HAR is being developed to create that pathway — where a real person can knowingly consent, contribute something of value, and be paid for eligible participation. At the same time, projects gain greater confidence that the data they receive comes from authentic human participants.”\r\nRather than treating contributors as anonymous one-time sources of data, HAR is intended to create continuity. Once verified, a person may become eligible for projects based on language, location, skills, knowledge, devices, documents, or other requirements.\r\nVerification is therefore intended to become more than a security check. A verified participant may be able to access future opportunities where authentic human participation matters, while avoiding the need to repeatedly establish that they are a real consenting person.\r\nFrom Verification to Real Participation\r\nMotionGravity is developing specialised contributor projects on top of this HAR verification layer.\r\nProject Atlas focuses on authentic documents and document imagery. Contributors can check whether documents they already possess may be eligible for a current requirement by identifying the document name or type. No upload is required simply to check eligibility.\r\nWhere a project requires genuine real-world documents from consenting individuals, HAR verification can provide additional confidence around the human source and participation behind that data. For contributors, Atlas creates a way to discover whether documents they legitimately possess may qualify for a paid contribution.\r\nProject Lumen applies the same principle to human knowledge and video. Verified contributors may participate by explaining, teaching or demonstrating subjects and skills they genuinely know.\r\nThat may include a practical activity, software workflow, professional subject, trade, hobby, lesson, equipment demonstration, interview or presentation. The objective is not to recruit influencers or professional presenters, but to enable ordinary people to contribute authentic human knowledge in a form that can help improve AI systems.\r\nTogether, Atlas and Lumen demonstrate how HAR can move from verification into practical participation: one trusted human layer supporting different forms of authentic data contribution.\r\nHelping People Participate in the AI Economy\r\nMotionGravity’s broader objective is to make AI participation accessible beyond traditional technology and data-work roles.\r\nA person may qualify for one project because of a language they speak, another because of a skill they can demonstrate, another because of a document they possess, and another because of their voice, image or real-world experience.\r\nIn this model, people are not simply treated as raw sources of data. They become recognised participants in the process. MotionGravity describes the goal as creating a legitimate pathway through which individuals can consent, contribute and earn, while helping AI systems gain access to authentic human-origin data.\r\nHAR is also being developed with longer-term applications around digital authenticity. As synthetic images, voices and videos become more sophisticated, MotionGravity intends to explore how the verification layer can eventually support broader anti-deepfake, authenticity and consent-verification technologies.\r\nThe company plans to expand HAR with additional opportunities across image, speech, audio, language, video, documents and other multimodal data categories.\r\nAbout MotionGravity\r\nMotionGravity is an India-based technology and data services organisation specialising in precision data collection and AI dataset production. Its capabilities include audio and speech data, transcription, annotation, OCR, image and video collection, dubbing, captioning, language services and multimodal data programs.\r\nThrough HAR and contributor projects such as Atlas and Lumen, MotionGravity is developing infrastructure intended to connect verified human participation with legitimate AI-data requirements.Email: connect@motiongravity.in\r\nLearn more / Join the HAR Contributor Network: https://join.harregistry.org/contributor-signup\r\nIf you object to the content of this press release, please notify us at pr.error.rectification@gmail.com.

Bringing together more than 120 exhibitors across 70,000 sq. ft. of exhibition space, the three-day technology showcase is creating a dynamic meeting ground for garment manufacturers, machinery providers, technology innovators and industry professionals from India and overseas.\r\nSupported by the Ministry of Textiles, Government of India, and co-located with the Leather &amp;amp; Footwear Technology Expo (LFT), GTE Bengaluru 2026 is being held from September 18–20, 2026, offering visitors an opportunity to experience the latest developments in automation, artificial intelligence, digitalisation, sustainability and smart manufacturing.\r\nWith more than 12,000 visitors expected, the exhibition is designed to facilitate live technology demonstrations, machinery evaluations, knowledge exchange, business networking and meaningful conversations around the future of apparel production.\r\nEstablished in 2001, Garment Technology Expo has evolved into one of South Asia’s leading platforms for garment manufacturing technology. Over 26 years, GTE has built a pan-India presence by connecting technology providers with manufacturers across major apparel production clusters.\r\nShri Siva Ganapathi, Managing Director, Gokaldas Exports, while taking around exhibition, said, “I am very happy to see this. I don’t think you have to go out of the country to be able to do all this. You can sit here and buy whatever you want at the best prices, and it looks very, very promising. So, thank you very much for inviting me, and thank you very much for being here.”\r\nSharing his views at the inauguration, Shri Navinn Agarwal, Chairman &amp;amp; Managing Director, SAPL Industries Ltd. underlined the importance of creating greater awareness about global technological advancements among Indian manufacturers.

Awareness of automation, sustainability and the machines that are available around the world is very important for the Indian manufacturer, and I think this is the exact platform needed to bring that awareness to the country.”\r\nSpeaking on the occasion, Shri Inderjit Singh Sahni, Chairman &amp;amp; Managing Director, Garment Technology Expo, said, “Bengaluru represents an important milestone in our journey of taking advanced garment technology directly to India’s key manufacturing hubs. GTE has evolved into a pan-India platform connecting technology providers with manufacturers within their regional territories. The response in Bengaluru reinforces the need for greater technology awareness and access to advanced manufacturing solutions among Indian garment manufacturers.”\r\nThe Bengaluru edition reinforces this regional approach by bringing advanced manufacturing solutions closer to one of India’s important garment industry hubs. From automated sewing and precision cutting to AI-powered inspection, digital factory management, embroidery, finishing and sustainable production systems, the exhibition reflects the industry’s accelerating transition towards smarter, more connected and resource-efficient manufacturing.\r\nHighlighting the strategic importance of regional technology access, Dr. Rakesh Kumar, Chairman, India Exposition Mart Limited, said, “GTE provides regional manufacturers with direct access to technologies that can enhance global competitiveness, productivity and sustainability.

The association comes at a time when sleep is becoming a bigger part of the premium lifestyle conversation, moving beyond simply getting enough hours at night to how well people actually sleep.\r\nAlongside the announcement, King Koil is introducing its new global identity in India. King Koil India will now move forward as King Koil Mattress Co., with the new name, logo, and identity being rolled out as part of the brand’s global identity across King Koil markets worldwide.\r\nThe identity change is perhaps the most significant part of the announcement. By bringing “Mattress Co.” into its name, King Koil is making its category and expertise immediately clear. In an increasingly crowded premium mattress market, that simplicity works in the brand’s favor. There is no ambiguity about what the company does or where its expertise lies.\r\nThe new logo also gives the brand a more focused visual presence. The new identity brings greater clarity to how the brand presents its expertise, with the mattress category now taking a more central place in its visual and brand expression. For a brand that has built its presence around sleep, the move feels less like a departure and more like a clearer statement of what it already represents.\r\nThe fact that the identity is being introduced as part of a global rollout makes the change even more relevant. Rather than being an India-specific rebranding exercise, the new identity is being adopted across King Koil markets worldwide. Bringing the same expression to India creates greater consistency for a global brand while giving its presence in the country a sharper identity.\r\nCommenting on the change, Archit Gupta, Managing Director, King Koil India, said:\r\n\r\n“The new identity is a clear expression of what King Koil has always been about. We are a mattress company, and we believe that the mattress has a far greater role to play in the quality of sleep than it is often given credit for. Moving forward as King Koil Mattress Co. puts that focus right at the center of our identity. It also brings our presence in India closer to the global identity of King Koil, while giving us a sharper way to speak to today’s consumer.”\r\n\r\nThe identity change comes alongside the appointment of Janhvi Kapoor as brand ambassador. Her association gives King Koil a recognizable face and a new voice as the brand looks to connect with today’s premium consumer.\r\nThe choice also comes at an interesting moment for the category. Luxury is increasingly being defined through everyday experiences rather than ownership alone. Homes, interiors, personal comfort, and wellness have all become part of how premium living is understood, and sleep naturally sits within that conversation.\r\nThis is where the mattress category has an opportunity to move beyond specifications and price. A mattress is used every night, yet consumers are becoming more interested in the experience it creates, from comfort and support to the quality of rest. For a premium brand, that shift creates a much broader conversation around what good sleep should actually feel like.\r\nKing Koil is bringing that thought together through its latest campaign, “Nothing, but King Koil.” The campaign is built around a simple proposition: once consumers know the standard they expect from their sleep, settling for less should not feel acceptable.\r\nThe campaign’s strength lies in the fact that it does not reduce premium sleep to a single feature. Comfort, support, materials, construction, and craftsmanship all contribute to the experience. By bringing these elements together, “Nothing, but King Koil” positions the brand around a broader idea of what premium sleep should represent.\r\n\r\nArchit Gupta added:\r\n“The idea behind ‘Nothing, but King Koil’ is very simple. When people invest in premium sleep, they are not looking for just another mattress. They are looking for a certain level of comfort, support, and quality. The campaign puts that expectation into one clear thought and establishes King Koil as that standard.”\r\n\r\nAnother aspect of King Koil’s approach is its focus on personalized mattress selection. Through Sleep ID, its proprietary Body Match technology, the brand considers factors such as body type, weight, sleeping position, and comfort preferences to help consumers find the right fit from its range of 50+ mattress varieties. It offers a more individualized way of approaching mattress selection, particularly in a category where the decision is often reduced to choosing between a softer or firmer feel.\r\nFor King Koil, the announcement therefore goes beyond introducing a new logo or a new brand ambassador. It brings together a global identity, a recognizable new face, and a campaign built around a clear standard.\r\nTaken together, the changes mark a broader shift in how King Koil is presenting itself in India. The new identity puts the mattress category more firmly at the center of the brand, while Janhvi Kapoor and “Nothing, but King Koil” give the brand a more contemporary way to communicate with consumers. The bigger question now is how this new identity translates beyond the campaign and into the everyday experience of the brand. If King Koil can consistently deliver the level of comfort, support, and quality that the new positioning promises, the rebrand could become more than a change in name and visual identity.\r\nA new identity. A new face. A clear standard.\r\nNothing, but King Koil.\r\nIf you object to the content of this press release, please notify us at pr.error.rectification@gmail.com.

This transformation represents a fundamental shift in Kolkata’s urban geography, where infrastructure investment, demographic shifts, and patient real estate vision have converged to create a self-sustaining ecosystem. Today, the corridor is defined not by isolated housing projects, but by a cohesive network of planned communities, integrated amenities, and increasingly sustainability-conscious developments.\r\nFrom Connectivity to a Complete Urban Ecosystem\r\nThe evolution of the Southern Bypass began with structural movement. By functioning as a natural extension of the EM Bypass, the corridor successfully knit southern micro-markets into Kolkata’s wider commercial geography, allowing for the assembly of larger land parcels than were available in the legacy core.\r\nAs travel times to the central business district and IT hubs compressed, the nature of homebuyer demand matured. The focus expanded beyond the square footage of an apartment to the surrounding ecosystem: schools, healthcare, organized retail, and usable open space. This supporting social infrastructure has matured in step with the housing stock, transforming the Southern Bypass into an established urban destination that commands steady capital appreciation of approximately 8.7% year-on-year.\r\nA 15-Year Development Arc\r\nNo single developer builds a corridor, but sustained presence over time leaves a visible imprint. Over the past decade and a half, Srijan Realty’s footprint along the Southern Bypass has mirrored the changing ambitions of the region.\r\n\r\n2011 | Sherwood Estate: Established proof of concept for large-scale, planned community living along the Bypass.\r\n2015 | WoodSquare Mall: Introduced an organized commercial and retail anchor, elevating the everyday lifestyle quotient of the micro-market.\r\n2023 | Ozone: Marked a shift toward eco-conscious premium living with an IGBC Gold-certified enclave built around biophilic design.\r\n2024 | Southwinds: Demonstrated that amenity-rich, self-contained mega townships could thrive beyond the traditional city center.\r\n2026 | Nirvana: Addressed the demand for low-density privacy and architectural distinction through high end bungalows.\r\nOngoing | Botanica: Focuses on the next generation of homebuyer preferences with a nature-centric development designed around wellness and open space.\r\n\r\nOrizon: The Next Chapter of the Corridor\r\nAs land values rise and urban density increases, development priorities are shifting from how much can be built to how well a community can live within that built environment. Srijan Realty’s latest launch, Orizon, serves as the next architectural milestone for the corridor, directly responding to this changing equation.\r\nLocated on B.C. Roy Road in Jagaddal with dual access points off the Southern EM Bypass, the 8.3-acre development comprises six high-rise towers housing 702 residences. Prioritizing space and natural light, roughly 80 percent of the site has been retained as open area—an unusually low-density ratio for a development integrated so closely into the city.\r\nThe planning of Orizon introduces forward-looking benchmarks for Kolkata’s residential real estate:\r\n\r\nInclusive, Barrier-Free Design: Anticipating the realities of India’s multigenerational households, Orizon incorporates wheelchair access ramps, Braille and voice-enabled lift controls, wide lift cabins, and designated accessible common areas to ensure equal access for aging parents and differently-abled family members.\r\nIGBC Platinum-Aligned Sustainability: Pre-certified for India’s highest green building rating, the development integrates solar power for common areas, organic waste management, EV charging infrastructure, and low-flow water fixtures. These integrations are projected to deliver 20 to 30 percent energy savings and 30 to 50 percent water savings over conventional construction.\r\nComprehensive Lifestyle Infrastructure: A 33,000-square-foot clubhouse and a 21,000-square-foot podium-level garden anchor the community, providing multigenerational amenities ranging from sports arenas to a dedicated senior citizens’ lounge.\r\n\r\n\r\n“Orizon reflects how we believe Kolkata wants to live today. Homebuyers are no longer choosing between space and connectivity, or between design and responsibility — they expect all of it together. Southern EM Bypass has moved past being an emerging corridor — it is now one of South Kolkata’s defining growth engines, and we have been part of that story for over a decade. We have built Orizon as a community first, planned around low-density living, open space, and lifestyle infrastructure that we believe will hold its value well beyond the next market cycle, with inclusivity and sustainability designed into its foundations rather than added on at the end.”— Dinesh Agarwal, Director, Srijan Realty\r\n\r\nThe Southern Bypass has moved from being Kolkata’s southern edge to a defining growth engine for the city.

Launched on 27 June 2026, the brand is working to establish M Beauty, or Moroccan Beauty, as a distinct category in India through products made with authentic Moroccan ingredients sourced directly from Morocco.\r\nThe investment comes within the brand’s first few months of operations, during which MoroMaa has sold out two of its products. The fundraise marks an early milestone in the company’s plans to develop its product portfolio, strengthen distribution and introduce Moroccan beauty practices to a wider Indian audience.\r\nMoroMaa’s proposition is rooted in Soundous’ personal connection to Morocco and her experience of its beauty traditions. The brand seeks to bring the ingredients, rituals, and cultural context of Moroccan personal care to Indian consumers, while developing products suited to the local market.\r\nSoundous, who holds an MBA in Finance, is building MoroMaa as a solo founder and CEO. Her background across finance and the entertainment industry informs the brand’s two central identity pillars: Artists and Moroccan. While the Artists proposition connects the brand to the founder’s entertainment background and cultural networks, the Moroccan proposition focuses on the authenticity of its ingredients and the beauty traditions behind them.\r\nCommenting on the fundraise, Soundous Moufakir, Founder and CEO of MoroMaa, said,b\r\nAviral Bhatnagar, Founder of AJVC, said, “Soundous brings a combination of product understanding, distribution experience and personal familiarity with Moroccan beauty to the business. Her approach to developing MoroMaa reflects an opportunity to introduce a distinct beauty proposition in India while adapting it to the local consumer. We believe the category has room to develop and are looking forward to supporting the company as it builds its product portfolio, distribution and customer base.”\r\nWith the latest investment, MoroMaa plans to focus on product development, expanding its reach and building awareness around Moroccan beauty in India. The brand’s longer-term vision is to establish M Beauty as a recognisable category within the country’s growing beauty and personal care landscape, while retaining authenticity in its sourcing and product development.\r\nAbout MoroMaa\r\nMoroMaa is a beauty, lifestyle and body care brand founded by Soundous Moufakir.\r\nLaunched on 27 June 2026, the brand brings authentic Moroccan ingredients and beauty traditions to Indian consumers through its M Beauty proposition.

Ltd., an Indian celebrity engagement, talent management and commercial content company, has introduced Maira Vardhan as its Virtual Chief Marketing Officer (CMO).\r\nCreated by Mohssin Khaan, Founder s CEO of Celewish Media, and developed within the Celewish ecosystem alongside Co-Founder s COO Anvarul Hasan Annu, Maira is envisioned as an AI-powered digital personality representing the company’s thinking around celebrity marketing, influencer strategy, brand integrations and modern content-led communication.\r\nRather than positioning Maira simply as a virtual influencer, Celewish is developing her as a distinctive digital IP at the intersection of marketing, entertainment and artificial intelligence.\r\nInstagram: @mairavardhan\r\nThrough her social channels, brand collaborations and Celewish-led content, Maira decodes campaign strategy, shares perspectives on creator and celebrity partnerships, discusses marketing trends and participates in selected commercial campaigns — presenting an AI-created yet human-led view of contemporary executive, creator and brand culture. Maira can be followed on Instagram at @mairavardhan.\r\nAs Virtual CMO, Maira explores campaign insights, brand-fit thinking, creator selection, celebrity endorsement strategy and the metrics that shape high-impact digital campaigns. Her content combines professional marketing conversations with lifestyle-led storytelling, giving the character a voice and personality beyond a conventional corporate AI avatar.\r\n“Most brands don’t have an influencer problem; they have a strategy problem,” said Mohssin Khaan, Founder s CEO of Celewish Media.\r\n“With Maira, the idea is not to replace human creativity or human creators. It is to demonstrate how AI, data-led thinking and strong marketing strategy can work alongside entertainment and creator culture to build more relevant brand communication.”\r\n“For us, the interesting part begins when technology moves beyond experimentation and starts creating practical value for brands,” said Anvarul Hasan Annu, Co-Founder s COO of Celewish Media.\r\n“Maira gives us another creative format to work with, but our foundation remains human talent and human storytelling. We see AI expanding the possibilities available to brands — not replacing the celebrities, creators and creative professionals who remain at the heart of this industry.”\r\nTHE IDEA BEHIND MAIRA VARDHAN\r\nMaira Vardhan is the brainchild of Mohssin Khaan, an Indian producer, entrepreneur and Founder C CEO of Celewish Media Pvt. Ltd.\r\nOver the years, Khaan has worked across celebrity-led brand campaigns, advertising films, digital content and entertainment marketing. His commercial production and celebrity marketing portfolio includes campaigns featuring Kareena Kapoor Khan, Saif Ali Khan, Karan Johar and Malaika Arora, among other prominent public figures.\r\nMaira extends that experience into a new format: an AI-native personality built specifically around the business of brands, creators and celebrity marketing.\r\nThe initiative has subsequently evolved through the wider Celewish team, combining the company’s experience across talent, production, marketing and campaign execution to develop Maira as a consistent digital personality rather than a one-off AI experiment.\r\nThe project also functions as a live case study for Celewish — demonstrating how an AI-created personality can be developed across identity, storytelling, brand communication and social content while remaining guided by human creative and strategic direction.\r\nFROM VIRTUAL CMO TO BRAND COLLABORATOR\r\nMaira’s journey has already begun moving beyond marketing commentary and AI-led content into commercial brand collaborations.\r\nMaira recently participated in a promotional campaign for McPherson s Valentine, marking one of her early commercial collaborations as an AI-created virtual personality.\r\nThe campaign demonstrated how a virtual creator can be integrated into a conventional brand-marketing environment while maintaining a distinctive visual identity, storytelling style and digital-first personality.\r\nFor Celewish, the collaboration represents an important extension of the idea behind Maira: rather than treating an AI personality merely as a technology experiment, the company intends to develop her as a commercially relevant digital IP capable of participating in real-world brand campaigns.\r\nFollowing the McPherson C Valentine collaboration, Celewish plans to expand Maira’s commercial portfolio through selected partnerships across categories including fashion, lifestyle, technology, beauty, hospitality and other consumer-facing sectors.\r\nFuture collaborations may include social-media integrations, digital campaigns, branded storytelling, product showcases and other AI-led creative formats.\r\nThe objective is not to position virtual personalities as substitutes for traditional celebrity endorsements or influencer marketing, but to introduce an additional creative format that brands can incorporate into their wider communication strategy.\r\nAI + HUMAN CREATIVITY, NOT AI VERSUS HUMANS\r\nCelewish’s approach to Maira is built around collaboration between technology and people.\r\nThe company sees AI as an additional creative and strategic layer rather than a substitute for actors, celebrities, influencers, writers, producers, directors or marketing teams.\r\nEvery aspect of Maira — from her identity and storytelling to campaign concepts, visual direction and brand communication — remains shaped by human creative and strategic decision-making.\r\nMaira’s role is to make emerging marketing ideas more accessible, experiment with new content formats and give brands another way to understand and participate in the rapidly changing creator economy.\r\nWith a network of more than 15,000 celebrities and creators, Celewish plans to use Maira as a differentiated voice within its B2B and social communication while continuing to work extensively with human talent.\r\nShe will also serve as a digital showcase for potential brand collaborations and AI-led creator solutions developed within the Celewish ecosystem.\r\nWHAT COMES NEXT\r\nCelewish plans to continue developing Maira as both a Virtual CMO and independent digital personality, with content spanning marketing insights, creator economy conversations, lifestyle storytelling and commercial collaborations.\r\nAs her digital identity evolves, Maira will increasingly interact with brands, creators and entertainment-led campaigns while documenting the possibilities — and limitations — of AI-native personalities in modern marketing.\r\nFor Celewish, Maira represents an ongoing experiment in what happens when human creativity, entertainment experience and artificial intelligence are brought together to build a new kind of digital personality.\r\nABOUT CELEWISH MEDIA\r\nCelewish Media Pvt. Ltd. is an end-to-end celebrity engagement, brand endorsement, talent management, influencer marketing and commercial content production company.\r\nCo-founded by Mohssin Khaan, Founder s CEO, and Anvarul Hasan Annu, Co-Founder s COO, Celewish connects brands with celebrities and creators for endorsements, digital campaigns, appearances and content collaborations, while also producing advertising films and digital content.\r\nWith a network of 15,000+ celebrities and creators, Celewish works across the lifecycle of celebrity and influencer-led campaigns — from talent curation and commercial negotiations to contracting, production and campaign execution.\r\nMEDIA CONTACT\r\nCelewish Media Business Relations Email: biz@celewish.com\r\nWebsite: celewish.com\r\nIf you object to the content of this press release, please notify us at pr.error.rectification@gmail.com.

Ministers holding the agriculture, forest and industries portfolios are also expected to attend.\r\nThe idea behind the summit is straightforward. Maharashtra’s cabinet cleared the Bamboo Industry Policy 2025 on 14 October last year. The policy sets out what the state wants from bamboo: Rs 50,000 crore in investment, more than five lakh jobs and fifteen bamboo industrial clusters. It provides for a venture fund of Rs 300 crore and a project of Rs 4,271 crore backed by the Asian Development Bank, and it requires thermal power stations to replace five to seven per cent of their coal with bamboo biomass. Farmers who plant bamboo get a subsidy of Rs 7.04 lakh per hectare.\r\nThe summit is the initiative of Pasha Patel, Chairman of the Maharashtra State Agricultural Price Commission and Executive Chairman of the Chief Minister’s Task Force on Environment and Sustainable Development. He has spent more than a decade arguing that a crop grown on poor land can answer two problems at once: the farmer’s income and the state’s carbon footprint.\r\n“For years I have been told bamboo is a forest product, a craft, a fence. On 27 September in Mumbai we will show that bamboo is steel, bamboo is cement, bamboo is fuel, bamboo is a carbon credit,” Patel said ahead of the summit. “The Chief Minister has given Maharashtra a bamboo industrial policy. This summit is where the policy meets the investor.”\r\nHe said no other state had gone this far. “Fifteen bamboo clusters, a Rs 50,000 crore investment target, five lakh jobs. When Brazil decided on ethanol, the world followed. When Maharashtra decides on bamboo, India will follow. That is the message of this summit.”\r\nThe programme has seven sessions under the title “India’s Bamboo Vision 2047,” covering construction, biomass energy, carbon credits, farm incomes and rural employment. The day ends with a dialogue among chief executives and a policy roundtable that is to adopt a “Mumbai Declaration on Bamboo Economy.” A bamboo exhibition, an investment forum and the Bamboo Excellence Awards are part of the event. Speakers are expected from the Union government, NITI Aayog, the National Bamboo Mission, the Asian Development Bank, UNDP and FAO, besides company heads, architects and bamboo experts from abroad.\r\nFor Maharashtra, the interest in bamboo is practical. It grows on land that yields little else, it can be cut year after year without replanting, and it has buyers in three industries at once: construction, power and paper. Whether that translates into money on the ground is what the organisers want answered on Sunday.\r\nAbout Phoenix Foundation Sanstha: Phoenix Foundation Sanstha is a non-governmental organisation based in Latur district, Maharashtra, founded in 2008 under the chairmanship of Pasha Patel. It works among farmers, rural youth and drought-affected families across Marathwada.\r\nIssued by Phoenix Foundation Sanstha, Latur\r\nFor media queries: +91 96234 55557, yasinmulani@gmail.com\r\n","articleSection":"Business","datePublished":"2026-09-18T14:21:04+0530","dateModified":"2026-09-18T14:21:51+0530","inLanguage":"en-us","author":{"@type":"Person","name":"PNN","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com/user/pnnindia"},"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Marudhara Bharti English","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com/uploads/logo/logo_6ab9270c36c334-01124948.png"}},"image":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://pnndigital.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/09/PNN-2026-09-18T111511.560.jpg","contentUrl":"https://pnndigital.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/09/PNN-2026-09-18T111511.560.jpg"},"keywords":["Bamboo","summit","Mumbai","bring","state’s","bamboo","policy","before","investors"]}</script>

As part of this growth, Team Computers continues to deepen its focus on high-growth enterprise segments such as Global Capability Centres (GCCs), BFSI, and technology-led businesses. Reinforcing this momentum, Team Computers has been recognised as India’s #1 Apple Premium Business Partner, Tier 1 – a distinction awarded to select enterprise partners globally for consistently delivering excellence in Apple solutions and customer success. The company is also India’s top Apple Authorised Enterprise Reseller (AAER).\r\nThe recognition comes at a pivotal time. According to the latest NASSCOM–Zinnov India GCC Landscape Report, India is now home to over 2,100 Global Capability Centres, employing more than 2.3 million professionals and generating close to $100 billion in revenue – making it the world’s largest GCC ecosystem. Many of these centres are standardising on Apple devices to support engineering, R&amp;amp;D, and innovation-led teams that expect enterprise-grade security alongside a best-in-class user experience. Team Computers has positioned itself as a partner of choice for these organisations, helping them modernise their digital workplace, streamline device lifecycle management, and align global technology standards with local execution.\r\n“This recognition from Apple is a strong validation of the trust enterprises place in us to build their digital workplace. As we work towards our $1 billion vision, our focus remains on going deeper into segments like GCCs, where the demand for secure, high-performing device ecosystems is only growing.

A judgment to find.\r\nA chronology to prepare.\r\nA document buried somewhere in a folder. A client waiting for an update.\r\nAnd another draft that needs to go out today.\r\nFor lawyers, these are not separate problems. They are part of the same working day.\r\nThe practice of law requires legal knowledge, analysis and judgment. Yet valuable time can also go into legal research, document management, legal drafting, case management, hearing tracking and client communication.\r\nYugality is built around a simple idea: lawyers should spend more time working on the law and less time managing the work around it.\r\nOne Workspace for Every Legal Workflow\r\nA single legal matter can involve case laws, documents, drafts, evidence, hearing dates, client communication and a constantly evolving chronology.\r\nManaging these across different platforms can create unnecessary fragmentation.\r\nYugality brings these workflows together through an AI-powered legal workspace, combining AI legal assistance, legal research, legal drafting, document management, case management, Legal Calendar, Chronology Builder, legal translation, notetaking and client connection.\r\nThe goal is simple: fewer disconnected tools and a more connected legal workflow.\r\nMore Than Legal Management — Find Clients Managing cases is only one part of building a legal practice. For many lawyers, another challenge is finding the right clients.\r\nYugality’s Find Clients capability is designed to help lawyers discover potential clients based on their legal requirements and improve their professional discoverability.\r\nInstead of relying entirely on referrals, personal networks or conventional outreach, lawyers can have a dedicated digital space to connect with people seeking legal assistance.\r\nYour legal expertise should be easier to discover when someone is looking for legal help.\r\nFind a Lawyer When You Need One\r\nThe challenge also exists from the client’s side.\r\nWhen someone faces a legal emergency, finding the right lawyer can involve multiple searches, messages and referrals.\r\nWhether it is a legal notice, property dispute, family matter, business issue or court-related concern, Yugality’s Find Lawyers capability is designed to make connecting with legal professionals easier.\r\nThis creates a connected legal ecosystem where lawyers can find clients and people can find lawyers.\r\nAI That Assists Lawyers, Not Replaces Them\r\nAI is changing legal technology, but legal practice will always require professional judgment.\r\nYugality’s AI legal assistant and legal AI capabilities are designed to assist with activities such as legal research, understanding documents, organising information and preparing drafts.\r\nContext matters. Accuracy matters. Professional judgment matters. The objective is not to let AI decide the law.\r\nIt is to help lawyers work with the law more efficiently while keeping the lawyer in control.\r\nFrom Legal Research to Case Management\r\nYugality connects multiple stages of legal work—from legal research and AI-assisted drafting to document management, case chronology and hearing management.\r\nIts Legal Briefcase helps organise matter-related documents, while the Legal Calendar and Chronology Builder help lawyers keep important dates and case timelines structured.\r\nThe result is a connected workflow that helps lawyers spend less time searching, organising and reconstructing information—and more time focusing on their cases.\r\nBuilt Around the Reality of Modern Legal Practice\r\nYugality was built around the changing needs of India’s legal professionals.\r\nMr. Yug Raman Srivastava, from National Law University, Patiala, and Mr. Raman Nagpal built Yugality around a straightforward belief: technology should simplify legal practice, not add another layer of complexity.\r\nFor advocates, chambers and law firms, the opportunity is not simply to adopt legal technology. It is to build a better way of working.\r\nOne Platform. Multiple Legal Needs.\r\nFor lawyers, Yugality helps bring together:\r\n\r\n\r\nAI legal assistance and legal research\r\n\r\n\r\nLegal drafting\r\n\r\n\r\nCase and document management\r\n\r\n\r\nLegal Calendar and hearing tracking\r\n\r\n\r\nChronology Builder\r\n\r\n\r\nLegal translation and notetaking\r\n\r\n\r\n●          Find Clients\r\n\r\n\r\nProfessional discoverability\r\n\r\n\r\nFor people seeking legal help:\r\n\r\n\r\nFind Lawyers based on their requirements\r\n\r\n\r\nDiscover legal professionals digitally\r\n\r\n\r\nConnect with legal assistance more easily\r\n\r\n\r\nTogether, these capabilities form a connected legal ecosystem for lawyers and people seeking legal assistance.\r\nA More Connected Future for Legal Work\r\nThe vision behind Yugality is to connect the journey from having a legal problem to finding legal help, and from accepting a matter to managing it.\r\nFor lawyers, that means better tools and greater opportunities. For people, it means easier access to legal professionals.\r\nLess hoch-poch. Fewer disconnected steps. One connected legal ecosystem.\r\nFirst Time Ever. One Legal Ecosystem.\r\nAI Legal Assistant. Legal Research. Legal Drafting. Case Management. Find Clients. Find Lawyers.\r\nYugality brings them together in one platform.\r\nYugality — All Legal Needs, Made Easier.\r\nSmarter Legal Work.

The five MTB bicycles have been designed in Germany and made in India, combining German design sensibilities with Allwyn’s established manufacturing capabilities in India.\r\nA New Chapter for an Established Indian Manufacturer\r\nThe launch was led by Chairperson Mr. Chetan Parkash Ji, alongside Directors Mr. Amit Kansal and Mr. Mohit Kansal, reflecting the leadership team’s continued focus on product development and responding to the changing expectations of India’s cycling market.\r\nMr. Chetan Parkash Ji, Chairperson, Allwyn Bikes: “This launch represents an important milestone in Allwyn Bikes’ journey. Our focus has always been on understanding the evolving needs of Indian consumers and creating products that combine quality, design and performance. With this new Bicycle range, we are bringing together international design thinking and our manufacturing experience in India to create bicycles that are contemporary, distinctive and relevant to today’s riders.”\r\nDesigned In Germany. Made In India.\r\nThe new Bicycle range reflects Allwyn’s effort to bring a more contemporary design proposition to the Indian bicycle market.\r\nBy combining German design inputs with Indian manufacturing capabilities, the company aims to create products that reflect global design sensibilities while leveraging the scale, experience and manufacturing expertise developed at its Haryana facility.\r\nMr. Amit Kansal, Director, Allwyn Bikes: “The Indian bicycle market is evolving, and today’s riders are looking for much more than basic functionality. They are increasingly conscious of design, experience and product identity. Our new MTB range is a reflection of this shift, combining international design perspectives with the capabilities we have built in India over the years.”\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nFrom Manufacturing Roots to a Broader Mobility Portfolio\r\nWith a journey that began in 1993, Allwyn has developed from its industry roots into a nationwide manufacturer and distributor of bicycles and mobility products.\r\nIts portfolio today extends across tricycles, scooters, ride-ons, strollers, balance bikes and kids’ furniture, reflecting the company’s broader presence across mobility and child-focused product categories.\r\nThe company’s 4 lakh+ sq. ft. Sonipat manufacturing facility remains central to its operations and product development capabilities.\r\nResponsible Manufacturing as a Growing Priority\r\nSustainability is also becoming an increasingly important part of Allwyn’s manufacturing philosophy.\r\nThe Sonipat facility incorporates 500 KW solar-powered infrastructure, eco-efficient water recycling systems, low-emission manufacturing practices and responsible raw-material sourcing, reflecting the company’s efforts to integrate more responsible practices into its manufacturing ecosystem.\r\nMr. Mohit Kansal, Director, Allwyn Bikes: “As we look at the next phase of Allwyn’s growth, responsible manufacturing and innovation will remain important parts of our approach. Our objective is to continue investing in products and processes that are relevant to the market while building a more efficient and responsible manufacturing ecosystem.”\r\nBuilding For India and The World\r\nBeyond its own growing portfolio, Allwyn Bikes has established a strong presence as an OEM and manufacturing partner for recognised national and international brands i.e. Amazon, Chicco, Hamleys across categories including baby products, kids’ products and mobility solutions.\r\nThis combination of manufacturing experience, product development capability and a growing in-house portfolio provides the foundation for the company’s next phase of expansion.\r\nThe latest Bicycle launch therefore represents more than the introduction of five new bicycles. It reflects an evolving Allwyn—one that is combining its established manufacturing experience with new design perspectives, product innovation and responsible manufacturing practices.\r\nAs the company looks ahead, the focus remains on developing products that respond to the changing needs of consumers while strengthening its position as an Indian manufacturer with global design ambitions.\r\nThe Next Chapter\r\nWith a clear vision to expand its global footprint, Allwyn is planning to take its new range of products to the Middle East and European markets this year. The planned export expansion marks an important step in Allwyn’s journey, bringing together German design, Indian manufacturing capabilities and an ambition to serve customers beyond India.\r\nAbout Allwyn Bikes\r\nEstablished in 1993, Allwyn Bikes Private Limited is an Indian manufacturer and distributor of bicycles and mobility products, with a portfolio spanning tricycles, scooters, ride-ons, strollers, balance bikes and kids’ furniture. The company operates a 4 lakh+ sq. ft. manufacturing facility in Sonipat, Haryana, and also works as an OEM and manufacturing partner for Many national and international brands across multiple product categories.\r\nIf you object to the content of this press release, please notify us at pr.error.rectification@gmail.com.

The company also announced its first large-scale enterprise deployment with Juniper Hotels Limited (NSE: JUNIPER), where the platform will be rolled out across nine properties in India. Hospitality is the first industry in Signoff’s broader vision to bring Agentic AI-driven decision intelligence to enterprises across multiple sectors.\r\nSignoff combines autonomous AI agents with enterprise data to create an intelligent decision layer that works alongside existing business applications. Instead of simply reporting historical performance, the platform continuously interprets operational, financial and market signals, predicts potential outcomes and recommends actions to improve business performance. While its first deployment is in hospitality, the underlying architecture is designed to scale across industries where fragmented data and complex decision-making slow business performance.\r\n“AI is moving beyond answering questions to transforming how enterprises make decisions and drive performance. We believe the next generation of transformative enterprises will work alongside Signoff’s autonomous AI agents that continuously monitor performance, identify opportunities, anticipate risks and recommend the next best actions. Signoff is building that intelligence layer—born in India, built for the world. Hospitality is where we began, but our vision extends across industries wherever fragmented data and complex decisions limit business performance. Our ambition is to build a world-class AI product and help enterprises globally make faster, smarter and more profitable decisions,” said Sankalp Saxena, Co-founder &amp;amp; CEO, Signoff.\r\nModern enterprises generate large volumes of data across finance, operations, customer engagement, market intelligence and productivity systems. Yet leadership teams continue to spend significant time bringing this information together for reporting instead of focusing on decisions. Signoff creates an AI layer that securely connects these systems, understands business context and continuously recommends actions to improve business outcomes. In hospitality, these capabilities span property management, reservations, revenue management, guest feedback, finance and market intelligence systems.\r\nBuilt on a secure, cloud-native architecture, the platform integrates with existing enterprise systems without replacing current technology investments. Its network of specialized AI agents works across operational, financial and market data to identify opportunities, anticipate risks and recommend the next best course of action, helping organizations move from reactive reporting to continuous decision intelligence.\r\nAs part of its focus on operational excellence and technology-led innovation, Juniper Hotels Limited has partnered with Signoff to deploy the platform across nine properties in its portfolio. The implementation will give leadership teams a unified, real-time view of operational, financial and market performance while enabling predictive, data-driven decision-making across the organization.\r\n“As our portfolio continues to expand, having timely and actionable insights across every property has become increasingly important. Signoff’s Agentic AI platform enables us to move beyond static reporting towards predictive, forward-looking decision support. Its ability to unify financial, operational and market intelligence while delivering prescriptive recommendations will strengthen decision-making, improve operational efficiency and help drive better business outcomes across our portfolio,” said Arun Saraf, Chairman and Managing Director, Juniper Hotels Limited.\r\nFounded in December 2025 by Sankalp Saxena, Sricharan Sundaram, Toshik Agarwal and Satyam Garg, Signoff has progressed from concept to commercial deployments in under six months. The company has already deployed its platform across 10       hotels in India and has a strong pipeline of additional enterprise prospects. Building on its initial success in hospitality, Signoff plans to expand into sectors including healthcare, retail and real estate, where organizations face similar challenges in turning fragmented enterprise data into actionable business decisions.\r\nAs enterprises increasingly adopt intelligent automation, Signoff aims to become the enterprise AI intelligence layer powering the next generation of decision-making across industries, helping organizations improve operational efficiency, profitability and overall business performance.\r\nAbout Signoff\r\nSignoff is a cloud-native Agentic AI intelligence platform that helps enterprises improve operational efficiency and profitability through intelligent AI agents. Launched first in hospitality, the platform is designed to extend across other data-intensive verticals, securely aggregating enterprise data from multiple systems, understanding business context and delivering predictive insights and prescriptive recommendations that enable faster, smarter business decisions. By combining financial intelligence, operational analytics, market signals and customer insights into a single intelligence layer, Signoff empowers organizations to improve performance without replacing existing technology investments.

Only then do they start searching for paint protection film (PPF). It is, by most accounts, the dominant pattern in India’s fast-growing car care market — protection is reactive, and awareness arrives with the damage.\r\nPrime Car Care, a professional PPF and detailing studio based in Kolkata, has spent the past year trying to break that pattern — not through advertising alone, but through a deliberate consumer-education programme it believes the industry has been slow to build.\r\n“By the time most customers walk in asking about PPF, they’ve already experienced the problem it prevents. We want to reach them before that moment — not after.”\r\n— Ashu Agarwal, Founder, Prime Car Care\r\nWhy paint protection is still reactive in India\r\nThe context behind that position is not simply commercial. India’s PPF market, valued at approximately USD 11.9 million in 2024, is growing steadily — but awareness remains concentrated among premium vehicle owners and automotive enthusiasts. For the vast majority of Indian car buyers, PPF is still an unfamiliar term until the moment it isn’t.\r\nThe road and weather conditions that make PPF essential in India\r\nThe conditions that make paint protection relevant are, in India, essentially constant: congested urban traffic, undivided highways where gravel trucks are a fixture, monsoon acid rain, parking lots with no reliable attendant system, and summer temperatures that accelerate paint degradation. These are not edge cases. They are daily realities for every car owner in Kolkata and across East India, regardless of what they drive.\r\nThe missing conversation: education before the purchase\r\nWhat is missing, according to Prime Car Care, is not the product — it is the conversation before the purchase. Most buyers leave a dealership with a new car and no structured guidance on what protects the finish long-term. The detailing industry, broadly, has waited for customers to arrive with a problem rather than investing in telling the story before one occurs.\r\nPrime Car Care’s education-first approach to PPF\r\nThe studio’s response has been a content-led approach: building a library of genuinely informative material on how PPF works, how to evaluate installers, where quotes mislead, what different film grades actually protect against, and why Indian road and weather conditions demand a different calculus than the advice most global sources provide. The aim is to be found before the scratch, not after.\r\n“There is a real knowledge gap in this market. Car owners are spending ₹15 to ₹80 lakhs on a vehicle and making their protection decisions based on a five-minute conversation at a dealership or a Google search after something has already happened. That is the gap we are trying to close.”\r\n— Subhadeep Chakraborty, Prime Car Care\r\nWhy informed customers choose quality over price\r\nIt is a positioning that distinguishes Prime Car Care from the standard detailing studio model, which typically focuses on converting enquiries into installations rather than generating the enquiry itself through education. The bet is that customers who understand what they’re buying — and why they need it before damage occurs — are not just better clients. They are also more likely to choose quality over price, to maintain their protection correctly, and to refer others who are similarly informed.\r\nFrom reactive to preventive: where India’s car care market is heading\r\nThe broader market data supports the opportunity. Research from Garware Hi-Tech Films notes that India’s shift from reactive to preventive car care is now a documented trend — driven by rising vehicle prices, a growing automotive detailing culture, and a generation of buyers who increasingly treat their cars as long-term assets rather than depreciating commodities.\r\nPrime Car Care’s argument is that this shift does not happen on its own. It requires studios willing to do the educational groundwork — to explain film grades, installation standards, and the real cost of waiting — rather than simply benefiting from the awareness others have built.\r\nIn a market that has historically waited for damage to drive demand, that is a different kind of investment. Whether it changes behaviour at scale remains to be seen. But as the cost of a single repainted panel climbs past ₹20,000 in most Indian metros, and factory paint remains the single largest contributor to resale value, the case for arriving before the scratch gets easier to make with every passing year.\r\nFrequently asked questions about PPF and Prime Car Care\r\nWhat is paint protection film (PPF)?\r\nPPF is a clear, high-strength thermoplastic urethane (TPU) film applied over a vehicle’s painted surfaces. It absorbs stone chips, scratches, swirl marks, acid rain, and UV exposure while preserving the original factory finish underneath.\r\nWhere can I get PPF installed in Kolkata or East India?\r\nPrime Car Care operates purpose-built detailing studios in Kolkata, Jamshedpur, and Guwahati, and is the only LLumar Authorised Fitment Centre in East India.\r\nHow much does PPF cost?\r\nCost depends on the film grade, how much of the car is covered (full-body versus high-impact areas), and the vehicle itself. Because film quality and installation standards vary widely, Prime Car Care recommends a free consultation for an accurate quote rather than choosing on price alone.\r\nWhat makes a good PPF?\r\nThree things: 100% virgin TPU film (not cheaper PVC or TPH), a high-quality adhesive that bonds evenly and removes cleanly, and skilled professional installation. Prime Car Care uses 100% TPU film from LLumar and Intakt, backed by warranty and installed by trained professionals.\r\nIs PPF worth it in Indian driving conditions?\r\nGiven congested traffic, gravel-strewn highways, monsoon acid rain, and high summer temperatures, PPF protects both a car’s appearance and its resale value — and factory paint is the single largest contributor to resale value.\r\nAbout Prime Car Care\r\nPrime Car Care operates purpose-built automotive detailing studios across Kolkata, Jamshedpur, and Guwahati, and is the only LLumar Authorised Fitment Centre in East India. The studio has built a following among automotive enthusiasts who want their cars treated with the same care they give them — by a team that genuinely shares that instinct.\r\nMedia contact\r\nPrime Car Care · Ashu Agarwal · ashu@primecarcare.in · +91 98753 38477\r\nStudios: Kolkata · Jamshedpur · Guwahati\r\nIf you object to the content of this press release, please notify us at pr.error.rectification@gmail.com.

Against this backdrop, an international summit on “AI for Democracy” was organised at Dev Sanskriti Vishwavidyalaya (DSVV), Haridwar, on Wednesday to deliberate on how AI can be harnessed to strengthen humanity and democratic values.Experts from India and abroad discussed the growing influence of AI, its opportunities and challenges, and the need for its responsible use. An AI-based magazine and several books were also released during the summit.\r\nIn his address at the concluding session, Hon’ble Governor Shri Gurmit Singh described the present period as a moment of transformation. He said that India has a centuries-old tradition of democracy and that Artificial Intelligence can now play an important role in making democracy stronger, more transparent and more participatory.He emphasised that young people should learn to embrace technology, as it opens doors to new possibilities. The combination of the creative thinking of youth, technological competence and human sensitivity, he said, could give India a new direction.“The question is not merely how intelligent a machine can become; the real question is how wisely we use it,” he added.\r\nChairing the summit, Dr. Chinmay Pandya, Vice President of Dev Sanskriti Vishwavidyalaya, said that India’s knowledge tradition has always viewed technological development in conjunction with human welfare.“AI should not become a substitute for human intelligence; rather, it should serve as a means of expanding human capabilities,” he said.Dr. Pandya further emphasised that “AI rooted in human values can make democracy more sensitive, inclusive and people-centric.”\r\nDex Hunter-Torricke, Founder and President of the London-based The Centre for Tomorrow, said that the benefits of AI must reach every section of society. He stressed that alongside technological development, adequate attention must also be given to social and economic challenges.Governments, industry and communities, he said, should work together to ensure that AI becomes a foundation for equal opportunity, human welfare and inclusive development.\r\nDuring various sessions, experts shared their perspectives on Artificial Intelligence, democratic institutions, public policy, citizen participation, digital trust and the future of governance.Winners of various competitions organised around the theme of AI for Democracy were also honoured by the dignitaries during the summit.\r\nThe international gathering witnessed participation from several distinguished experts and dignitaries, including Professor Ibrahim Salama, Dean at The British University in Egypt; Dex Hunter-Torricke, Founder and President of The Centre for Tomorrow and an expert on AI and public policy; Harry Fisher, Head of Tech Policy at the British High Commission, New Delhi; Dr. Vijay Dhasmana, Chancellor of Swami Rama Himalayan University; Cabinet Minister Shri Madan Kaushik; Manu Gaud; and several other experts from India and abroad.\r\nThe summit provided a global platform for dialogue on ensuring that the rapid advancement of Artificial Intelligence remains aligned with democratic principles, human values, social inclusion and public welfare.","articleSection":"Business","datePublished":"2026-09-17T19:26:23+0530","dateModified":"2026-09-17T19:46:36+0530","inLanguage":"en-us","author":{"@type":"Person","name":"PNN","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com/user/pnnindia"},"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Marudhara Bharti English","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com/uploads/logo/logo_6ab9270c36c334-01124948.png"}},"image":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://pnndigital.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/09/PNN-57.jpg","contentUrl":"https://pnndigital.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/09/PNN-57.jpg"},"keywords":["Global Experts Deliberate on Democracy","AI","DSVV"]}</script>

The acquisition of Furlicks from USV &amp;amp; Wellbeing Nutrition brings the brand’s differentiated product innovation and consumer understanding into the FPL Group.\r\nThis move further creates an opportunity to leverage FPL’s established capabilities in manufacturing, product development, quality systems, R&amp;amp;D, supply chain and distribution in the pet-care industry.\r\nWith pet parenting evolving from a predominantly need-based approach towards a more proactive focus on preventive health, the acquisition comes at a time when pet parents are becoming more aware and increasingly willing to invest in nutrition and specialised products for their pets.\r\nFurlicks addresses this consumer need through its oral-strip format, offering an alternative to conventional forms of pet supplements. Its existing portfolio spans key pet-wellness categories including skin and coat, gut health, joint care, calming, oral care and multivitamins, providing a strong foundation for further category expansion and product innovation.\r\nSpeaking on the acquisition, Mr. Fredun Medhora, MD &amp;amp; CFO, Fredun Pharmaceuticals Ltd. stated, “Furlicks marks a bold new chapter in FPL’s journey into pet wellness. We see Furlicks as more than an addition to our portfolio- it is a differentiated platform with the potential to build a significant\r\npet-wellness business. By combining Furlicks’ innovation and consumer-first approach with FPL’s manufacturing capabilities, scale and execution strength, we aim to make quality pet care more accessible to millions of pet parents across India. Our focus is to scale Furlicks while preserving what makes the brand special: its innovation, simplicity and deep understanding of pet parents. With FPL’s resources and capabilities behind it, we see a strong opportunity to take what Furlicks has built to the next level and create India’s first comprehensive pet-wellness platform.”\r\nThe immediate focus for FPL will be on scaling the existing business by introducing 12 new SKUs in the 1st phase, with 32 new SKUs aligned for launch in the second phase. Over time, the ambition is to evolve Furlicks from a differentiated oral-strip proposition into a broader everyday pet-wellness platform.\r\nAbout Fredun Pharmaceuticals Limited\r\nFredun Pharmaceuticals Limited (FPL) is a legacy brand in the healthcare segment with expertise spanning four decades, with a focus on pharmaceuticals, healthcare, consumer-facing wellness and specialised healthcare categories.

From creative engagement and awareness sessions to an e-waste collection drive and an educational visit to a live waste-management facility, the programmes were designed to help young people understand environmental responsibility and translate learning into practical action. The initiatives addressed key themes including e-waste management, waste segregation, recycling, responsible disposal, resource conservation and circular-economy practices, while encouraging students to recognise the role that everyday choices can play in building a cleaner and more sustainable future.\r\nAs part of the outreach, a Drawing Competition was organised at DAV Public School, Sector 7, Rohini, Delhi, on August 13, around the occasion of Independence Day. Students were encouraged to creatively connect the idea of national responsibility with environmental protection, responsible waste management and the vision of a cleaner and greener India. The activity offered students an opportunity to express their understanding of sustainability through art while reinforcing the message that environmental responsibility is an important part of responsible citizenship.\r\nA Training and Awareness Session was conducted at Societe Progressiste Government Aided High School in Puducherry on August 12. The session introduced students to e-waste management, waste segregation, recycling and responsible disposal practices, with an emphasis on how students can contribute to environmental protection through sustainable everyday behaviour.\r\nIn Delhi, another Training and Awareness Session was organised at Government Co-ed Secondary School, Block 2, Geeta Colony, on August 13. Students were sensitised to the importance of e-waste management, segregation, recycling and responsible disposal, and were encouraged to carry these practices beyond the classroom into their homes and communities. The programme sought to inspire young participants to become sustainability ambassadors who can influence responsible behaviour among those around them.\r\nTaking the engagement a step further from awareness to action, Clean to Green conducted a Training and Awareness Session along with an E-Waste Collection Drive at ICFAI Business School (IBS), Gurugram, on August 11. Students were engaged on responsible e-waste management, segregation, recycling, circular-economy practices and the safe disposal of end-of-life electronic products.\r\nThe collection component enabled participants to connect what they learned during the awareness programme with an immediate, practical sustainability action. Engagement with students at a business school also provided an opportunity to introduce future professionals and decision-makers to concepts of resource efficiency, responsible consumption and circularity that are becoming increasingly relevant to businesses and institutions.\r\nA major highlight of the month&#039;s outreach was an educational exposure visit by 55 students of Salwan Girls Senior Secondary School, Rajender Nagar, Delhi, to the RLG Mandoli Aggregation Centre on August 19 under the Clean to Green initiative.\r\nDesigned as an experiential learning programme, the visit connected classroom concepts with the functioning of a live waste-management facility. Students received practical exposure to different stages of waste management, including segregation, sorting, handling, storage and aggregation, while also learning about responsible recycling and the onward journey of collected waste.\r\nThe programme was conceived around the learning approach “See it. Understand it. Practice it.”, enabling students to observe operational processes instead of learning about sustainability only through textbooks. The educational focus included e-waste and battery waste management, responsible consumption and disposal, resource conservation and circular-economy thinking.\r\nThe visit was also aligned with the emphasis of the National Education Policy 2020 on hands-on, experiential and competency-based learning, providing students an opportunity to understand how environmental concepts translate into real-world systems and processes.\r\n“Environmental awareness becomes meaningful when it leads to responsible choices and action. Through these engagements, our effort is to help young people understand why sustainability matters and how waste segregation, responsible disposal, recycling and resource conservation work in practice. Schools and educational institutions have an important role in shaping habits early, and when students carry these learnings into their homes and communities, the impact extends beyond the classroom. At Clean to Green Society, we want to create opportunities that enable young people to see, understand and participate in building a more responsible and circular future,” said Ms. Radhika Kalia, President, Clean to Green Society.\r\nAbout Clean to Green Society™\r\nClean to Green Society™ (C2G) is a purpose-led non-profit organisation working to advance environmental awareness, responsible resource management and circular-economy participation across India.

The company has shifted its Unit II into a new four-acre plant at Bhojpur, near Modinagar, clearing the way for operational cost reductions and the addition of two higher-margin product lines.\r\nOperations began on 18 July 2026, and dispatches left the site the same week. In its filing to the BSE, the company put the savings from consolidation at a minimum of ₹ 25 lakh a month, close to ₹ 2.5 Cr a year, from lower administrative, power and fuel and labour costs. Notably, the expansion was funded entirely through internal accruals. Managing Director Nishant Garg told analysts on the H2 FY26 earnings call in June that the entire capex, along with the year’s growth, was funded internally, without raising equity or taking on fresh institutional borrowing during the year.\r\nThe point of the new site is what goes into it next. Maiden Forgings is installing lines for galvanised wire and stainless-steel machine components, together about 10,000 tonnes a year, which would lift installed capacity from 53,000 MTPA to roughly 62,000 to 63,000 MT. Garg said on the call that commercial production is targeted for around September, with the ramp beginning near Diwali, and that letters of intent are already in hand from existing customers for both products. On galvanised wire, he was blunt about the appeal: gross margins of 20% to 25%, in a North Indian market with barely a couple of established suppliers, against a company-wide EBITDA margin that has been running in single digits.\r\nA slower build has been going on alongside. Maiden Forgings registered with the Ordnance Factory Board in Kolkata in 2024, added Ordnance Factory Muradnagar in October 2025 and CEMILAC in Bengaluru a month later, and in January 2026 was provisionally cleared as an approved industry partner with DRDO’s Terminal Ballistics Research Laboratory. It has delivered orders to HAL, BHEL and NTPC. None of this is large money yet. It does sit in front of a market the Ministry of Defence valued at ₹ 1.78 lakh crore of production in FY26, up 15.6% on the year, with private manufacturers accounting for 24% of it.\r\nFY26 itself was not a comfortable year. Total income rose 9.5% to ₹ 233.96 Cr on record production of 35,546 MT, up 11.5%, but EBITDA slipped to ₹ 17.22 Cr from ₹ 19.91 Cr and net profit to ₹ 5.02 Cr from ₹ 6.05 Cr, taking the EBITDA margin from 9.32% to 7.36%. Garg’s explanation is a falling steel market: prices declined more or less continuously until November 2025, and a processor that books raw material back-to-back against confirmed orders still has to concede something on price to hold customers in a weak market. The second half read differently. Total income of ₹ 122.60 Cr was 17.46% higher year on year, and net profit of ₹ 2.93 Cr was up 46.37%.\r\nSome housekeeping has followed. In August, the company sold a vacant plot at C-10, Bulandshahr Road Industrial Area, Ghaziabad for ₹ 12.90 Cr and earmarked the proceeds for developing its Murad Nagar site. Utilisation, which Garg put at about 72% to 73% last year, is expected to reach 85% once the shifting settles, on a customer base of more than 450. Management has also said the company now meets the criteria to migrate from the BSE SME platform to the main board, and will make the move when it judges the timing right.\r\n\r\n“The savings from consolidation are real, and they begin immediately. What interests me more is what the new plant lets us make. Galvanised wire and stainless components are products our own customers asked us for, and they carry margins we have not had access to until now.”— Mr. Nishant Garg, Managing Director, Maiden Forgings Limited\r\n","articleSection":"Business","datePublished":"2026-09-16T18:51:46+0530","dateModified":"2026-09-16T19:02:15+0530","inLanguage":"en-us","author":{"@type":"Person","name":"PNN","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com/user/pnnindia"},"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Marudhara Bharti English","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com/uploads/logo/logo_6ab9270c36c334-01124948.png"}},"image":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://pnndigital.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/09/PNN-2026-09-16T173718.309.jpg","contentUrl":"https://pnndigital.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/09/PNN-2026-09-16T173718.309.jpg"},"keywords":["Maiden Forgings","Adds Galvanised Wire","Target Margin Growth"]}</script>

The next major opportunity may lie in what happens to the businesses they have built.\r\nAcross the country, thousands of founders have spent 20, 30 and sometimes 40 years building companies, creating employment, accumulating wealth and establishing businesses with meaningful enterprise value.\r\nAs these companies mature, their owners are beginning to face a different set of decisions.\r\nWho takes the business forward? Should the next generation inherit it? Is it time to bring in capital or a strategic partner? Could an acquisition accelerate growth? And when the time is right to sell, how does an entrepreneur realise the value created over decades?\r\nThese are no longer isolated questions. They point towards a larger transition taking place across Indian business.\r\nM&amp;amp;A activity is becoming increasingly strategic. Private capital has deepened. Acquisitions are becoming a more serious route to growth. And a generation of family-owned and founder-led businesses is approaching questions of succession, ownership and legacy.\r\nIndia has become very good at starting and scaling businesses. It now needs an equally sophisticated ecosystem to value them, buy them, sell them and transition them well.\r\nIt is against this backdrop that Transworld Business Advisors (TBA), which describes itself as the world’s largest business brokerage, has launched in India.\r\nTBA brings more than 45 years of operating experience and reports a global network of over 1,000 active brokers across 250+ offices, with more than 15,000 businesses sold.\r\nTBA India will provide expertise across business sales and acquisitions, business brokerage, M&amp;amp;A advisory, valuations, succession and franchise consulting, with particular relevance to India’s privately held, family-owned and small and mid-sized business economy.\r\nA large economy of businesses — and an emerging economy of ownership\r\nThe opportunity is particularly relevant to India’s enormous MSME ecosystem.\r\nAccording to the Economic Survey 2025–26, MSMEs account for approximately 31.1% of India’s GDP, 35.4% of manufacturing output and 48.58% of exports.\r\nWithin this ecosystem sit established manufacturers, distributors, service companies, healthcare businesses, consumer brands and family enterprises with customers, employees, cash flows, assets, brands and decades of operating history.\r\nMany have created significant enterprise value.\r\nWhat has historically been less developed is an organised marketplace through which that ownership can change hands.\r\nYash Vasant, Chairman, Transworld Business Advisors India, said:\r\n“India is approaching one of the most significant ownership transitions in its business history.\r\n“We have become very good at starting businesses and increasingly good at scaling them. The next opportunity is to build an equally sophisticated ecosystem for what happens after they have been built.\r\n“I want an entrepreneur who has spent 30 years creating a valuable company to know there is a professional market capable of valuing it, finding the right buyer and helping transfer what may represent the largest asset of his or her lifetime.\r\n“Succession should become a strategy rather than a crisis. Entrepreneurs should consider acquiring great businesses rather than believing entrepreneurship must always begin at zero. And selling a business should be understood for what it can be — the realisation of decades of enterprise value.”\r\nFrom revenue to enterprise value\r\nFor decades, the dominant entrepreneurial ambition in India was relatively straightforward: start a company, increase revenues and expand operations.\r\nA maturing economy introduces another measure of success: what has actually been built, and what is it worth independently of its founder?\r\nThat changes the questions entrepreneurs ask.\r\nInstead of relying entirely on organic expansion, a business owner may ask whether acquiring an established company could achieve in three years what building from scratch might take ten.\r\nA founder approaching retirement may begin planning succession years before it becomes an emergency.\r\nA second-generation entrepreneur may professionalise the business and prepare it for institutional capital.\r\nAnother owner may decide that after decades of building a valuable enterprise, it is time to sell and realise that value.\r\nVasant said:\r\n“Revenue tells us how large a business has become. Enterprise value tells us what has actually been built.\r\n“A truly valuable company should eventually be capable of surviving its founder, attracting capital, acquiring or being acquired, and successfully transferring from one owner to another.\r\n“India has created an extraordinary generation of entrepreneurs. We now need to build the infrastructure that allows the value they created to compound beyond them.”\r\nBuilding the marketplace around Indian businesses\r\nTBA India’s ambition extends beyond facilitating individual transactions.\r\nThe company intends to help develop a professional national ecosystem connecting business owners, entrepreneurs, qualified buyers, investors and transaction advisers.\r\nTBA’s global model supports owners and buyers through business valuation, confidential marketing, buyer identification and qualification, negotiations and transaction support.\r\nThe opportunity also changes the other side of entrepreneurship.\r\nAn entrepreneur does not necessarily need to start with a blank sheet of paper. Acquiring an established business can provide customers, employees, infrastructure, distribution and cash flows from day one.\r\nSimilarly, existing companies can use acquisitions to enter new markets, acquire capabilities or consolidate fragmented industries.\r\nThe entrepreneurial question therefore expands from simply “What can I start?” to “What can I build — and what can I buy?”\r\nFor Vasant, the ambition is ultimately larger than establishing a brokerage network.\r\n“There are businesses you enter because a market already exists. And occasionally, there are businesses you enter because you believe a market is about to be created.\r\n“For me, TBA India is the latter.\r\n“India has built millions of businesses. Our ambition now is to help build the marketplace around them.”\r\nAbout Transworld Business Advisors\r\nTransworld Business Advisors is a global business brokerage, M&amp;amp;A and franchise consulting network with more than 45 years of operating history.\r\nThe organisation reports more than 1,000 active brokers across 250+ offices worldwide and over 15,000 businesses sold. Its advisers work with business owners and buyers across the transaction lifecycle, including business valuation, confidential marketing, buyer qualification, negotiations and transaction support.","articleSection":"Business","datePublished":"2026-09-16T18:26:40+0530","dateModified":"2026-09-16T19:02:54+0530","inLanguage":"en-us","author":{"@type":"Person","name":"PNN","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com/user/pnnindia"},"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Marudhara Bharti English","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com/uploads/logo/logo_6ab9270c36c334-01124948.png"}},"image":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://pnndigital.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/09/PNN-2026-09-16T160333.652.jpg","contentUrl":"https://pnndigital.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/09/PNN-2026-09-16T160333.652.jpg"},"keywords":["India’s","New","Business","Transition","Economy:","What","Happens","After","Business","Built"]}</script>

Tender247 is making it more accessible through a familiar face, helping more businesses see, understand and compete for it.\r\nIndia’s biggest customer is the Government of India, and it does not have a single storefront. It has hundreds of portals.\r\nThe World Bank estimates public procurement at roughly 20 percent of India’s GDP, putting the wider opportunity at about ₹70 lakh crore. Government e Marketplace (GeM) alone, the portal through which ministries, PSUs and departments buy everything from stationery to steel, completed ten years this August with ₹20 lakh crore in cumulative purchases. Its annual buying rose from ₹422 crore in its first full year to more than ₹5 lakh crore in each of the last two. GeM took over eight years to reach its first ₹10 lakh crore, then less than two to reach the next.\r\nThe opportunity is immense. Access to it is not.\r\nA Large Market, Scattered Across Systems\r\nGeM is only one channel. Defence procurement alone stands at ₹6.81 lakh crore in the FY2025-26 budget, while infrastructure capital expenditure is ₹11.21 lakh crore, much of it routed through other systems. Central tenders above ₹25 lakh appear on CPPP. Railways uses IREPS. Defence has defproc.gov.in. States use portals under GePNIC, while PSUs such as Coal India, NTPC and Indian Oil publish separately.\r\nFinancial rules require e-procurement above a threshold, but they do not require one common portal. By tender trackers’ estimates, a serious bidder must watch more than 30 portals, each with its own login, search logic and deadlines. Even a mid-sized manufacturer or EPC contractor with a business development team cannot realistically cover them all.\r\nDigital procurement has widened participation. MSEs have won over ₹9 lakh crore on GeM, accounting for 45.6 per cent of cumulative purchases and comfortably exceeding the mandated quota. An IIT Delhi study of 101 items from FY2023-24 to FY 2025-26 also found GeM prices lower in 74.3 per cent of cases, with savings of 13.6 per cent. But a more efficient portal cannot help a capable business compete for a tender it never saw.\r\n\r\n“When we sit with a mid-size manufacturer, the most common thing we hear isn’t that they lost a bid. It’s that they never knew the tender existed until after it closed. That’s not a capability problem. That’s a discovery problem, and it’s a solvable one.”-Pankaj Modi, Founder, Tender247\r\n\r\nThe Cost of Not Knowing\r\nThat blindspot is the business of Tender247. The company tracks tenders from government bodies, public sector companies and large private buyers across hundreds of portals, then helps businesses identify the opportunities that match their capabilities.\r\nMost tendering work happens before a bid is submitted: finding relevant notices, checking what competitors quoted last time, preparing documents, managing deadlines and keeping a team aligned. Tender247 brings that work into one system. Its AI identifies relevant tenders, automates paperwork and gives teams a shared view of the process. The company says this can cut the time required for a bid by roughly 90 percent, allowing even a small team to pursue far more opportunities.\r\n“Large contractors have always had someone whose entire job was tracking portals and pricing out rivals. We turned that role into a smart subscription.”–Pankaj Modi, Founder, Tender247\r\nTaking Tender Intelligence Mainstream\r\nThis week, Tender247 announced Anupam Kher as its brand ambassador in what the company says is the tender industry’s first celebrity association. The choice is unusual by design. A category long sold through trade directories and cold calls is being introduced to India’s boardrooms with the familiarity of a consumer brand.\r\n\r\n“India’s businesses are not asking for favours. They are asking to see the same information the big players have always had. If my face on a hoarding makes one factory owner in Rajkot check which tenders opened in his sector last month, this association has done its work.”– Anupam Kher\r\n\r\nMaking the Market Easier to Read\r\nThe association is therefore not just about visibility. Tender247 also plans to publish quarterly intelligence on the market, beginning with a figure the industry rarely sees: the total value of tenders that receive no competing bid at all.\r\nThat may be the larger ambition: not simply to help businesses find more tenders, but to make one of India’s largest markets easier for more of them to read, understand and enter.","articleSection":"Business","datePublished":"2026-09-16T18:26:40+0530","dateModified":"2026-09-16T19:07:28+0530","inLanguage":"en-us","author":{"@type":"Person","name":"PNN","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com/user/pnnindia"},"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Marudhara Bharti English","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com/uploads/logo/logo_6ab9270c36c334-01124948.png"}},"image":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://pnndigital.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/09/PNN-2026-09-16T155718.888.jpg","contentUrl":"https://pnndigital.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/09/PNN-2026-09-16T155718.888.jpg"},"keywords":["Anupam Kher","Tender Market"]}</script>

The organisations will work together to create a trusted channel for engagement among Indian issuers, financial institutions, regulators, policymakers, technology companies, professional services firms and other market participants exploring tokenisation.\r\nThe alliance combines the STO Foundation/Tokenized Asset Foundation’s international network and tokenised asset ecosystem with E-Sutra’s relationships across India’s policy, financial, technology, entrepreneurial and media communities. Together, the organisations intend to help Indian participants access global knowledge, infrastructure and strategic relationships while giving international organisations a credible point of entry into India’s developing tokenisation market.\r\n“India has the talent, assets, financial institutions and technical capabilities to become one of the world’s most important tokenisation markets,” said Randy Goldberg, President of the STO Foundation/Tokenized Asset Foundation. “What the market needs is a trusted bridge connecting local leadership with international experience, infrastructure and relationships. E-Sutra is uniquely positioned to help us build that bridge. This partnership gives the Foundation a strong presence in India and creates meaningful new opportunities for our members to engage with one of the world’s most dynamic economies.”\r\nThe partnership will focus on four strategic priorities:\r\nMarket connectivity: Connecting Indian organisations with international tokenisation platforms, infrastructure providers, financial institutions, legal and compliance professionals, and other participants across the tokenised asset lifecycle.\r\nEducation and professional development: Creating educational programmes, workshops, training initiatives and industry content for professionals, institutions, issuers and policymakers seeking a practical understanding of tokenised assets and digital securities.\r\nPolicy and regulatory engagement: Supporting informed, constructive dialogue among regulators, policymakers, legal experts and industry participants about market structure, investor protection, compliance, interoperability and responsible innovation.\r\nCross-border ecosystem development: Building relationships between credible Indian issuers and service providers and international capital-market participants, technology partners and professional networks, subject to applicable laws and regulatory requirements.\r\n“India is at an inflection point,” said Kanhaiya Singh, Co-Founder of E-Sutra. “Institutions are examining new market infrastructure, entrepreneurs are developing globally relevant solutions, and policymakers are considering how tokenisation can support economic growth while protecting market participants. Our partnership with the STO Foundation/Tokenized Asset Foundation connects India’s emerging ecosystem with experienced organisations around the world. It will help move the conversation from isolated experimentation toward informed policy, institutional collaboration and commercially viable implementation.”\r\nBuilding India’s Connections With the UAE and Global Markets\r\nA key area of cooperation will be the India-UAE corridor. The organisations will seek to connect Indian market participants with financial and digital-asset hubs across the UAE and the wider Gulf Cooperation Council, while expanding relationships with institutions, investors, technology providers and professional services organisations in the United States and other international markets.\r\n“India will not simply participate in the next phase of tokenisation; it has the scale, talent, assets and institutional depth to help shape it,” said Raj Kapoor, Chief Strategy Advisor, STO Foundation/Tokenized Asset Foundation. “This alliance creates a practical bridge between India, the UAE, the wider GCC and the global financial ecosystem. By combining E-Sutra’s local credibility and institutional relationships with the Foundation’s international network, we can turn policy dialogue into education, strategic partnerships and credible tokenisation initiatives with real economic impact.”\r\nThis cross-border focus reflects the increasingly global nature of tokenised markets. Issuers may require legal structuring, technology, compliance, identity, banking, custody, payments, fund administration, transfer agency, distribution and investor engagement across multiple jurisdictions. By connecting complementary expertise through a coordinated ecosystem, the partnership aims to help credible projects identify the resources and relationships needed to advance responsibly.\r\nSupporting India’s Evolving Tokenisation Framework\r\nThe alliance is being launched as policy interest in tokenised assets continues to grow across India. The Asset Tokenisation (Regulation) Bill, 2026, introduced in the Rajya Sabha, proposes a national framework addressing the issuance, trading, custody and settlement of tokenised real-world assets. Maharashtra is separately developing the proposed Digitisation and Exchange of Land Token Assets Act, known as the DELTA Act, focused on blockchain-enabled land and property tokenisation.\r\nThese initiatives reflect increasing attention to the legal recognition of tokenised assets, regulatory coordination, custody, investor protection and the integration of blockchain infrastructure with established financial and property systems. The STO Foundation/Tokenized Asset Foundation and E-Sutra will support education and constructive industry dialogue as these discussions continue. Neither organisation acts as a regulator, securities intermediary or provider of legal or investment advice.\r\nFrom Industry Dialogue to Practical Market Development\r\nAs part of the alliance, the organisations plan to convene policy roundtables and industry forums, develop education and training initiatives, facilitate institutional and professional introductions, and support the development of credible tokenisation use cases across India, the UAE, the wider GCC and international markets.\r\nPotential areas of focus include real estate, infrastructure, private credit, commodities, funds, carbon markets, intellectual property and other asset classes in which tokenisation may improve market access, transparency, operational efficiency or capital formation.\r\nThe partnership is designed to move the discussion beyond technology alone and toward the complete market infrastructure required for adoption, including sound legal frameworks, regulatory alignment, asset preparation, institutional-grade technology, custody, compliance, distribution, investor protection and viable commercial models.\r\nAbout E-Sutra\r\nE-Sutra is India’s Web3 Alliance, connecting founders, financial institutions, policymakers, regulators, infrastructure providers and domain experts to support the responsible growth of Web3 and tokenised digital asset ecosystems in India. Its work focuses on policy advocacy, regulatory sandboxing, global connectivity, industry standards and real-world use cases that can strengthen the Indian economy, deepen financial inclusion and improve market access.\r\nLearn more at e-sutra.org.\r\nAbout the STO Foundation/Tokenized Asset Foundation\r\nThe STO Foundation/Tokenized Asset Foundation is a global membership and industry-development organisation advancing real-world asset tokenisation, digital securities and compliant capital markets.

The event was led by Aushim Khetarpal (Aushimji), Head of the Shirdi Sai Baba Peace Foundation, who was invited by Datuk SP Kannan (Kannan Baba) and the South Malaysian Sai Baba organisation to bring the Peace Torch to the gathering.\r\nThe ceremony witnessed an emotional response from devotees as the Peace Torch was carried through the gathering. Several devotees came forward to touch and hold the torch, while others stood with folded hands. The deeply emotional atmosphere reflected the significance attached to the torch as a symbol of peace, compassion, and universal brotherhood.\r\n \r\nSpeaking on the occasion, Aushimji reiterated the Foundation’s core philosophy, “Spirituality is Humanity.”\r\n“This torch is not about one religion or one nation. It belongs to humanity. Whether Christian, Tamil, Parsi, Muslim or Hindu, before anything else, we are human beings,” said Aushimji.\r\nHe further highlighted the emotional connection witnessed during the ceremony, saying, “When people from different backgrounds come together, and tears flow simply by touching a symbol of peace, you realise that peace is not merely an idea. Peace is an emotion. Humanity does not need a passport, a religion or a language.”\r\n \r\nThe participation of Hitesh Rajpal, Deputy High Commissioner of India to Malaysia, underlined the longstanding cultural and spiritual ties between India and Malaysia. The presence of Dato’ Sivakrishnan Sivaram further added to the significance of the gathering, bringing together representatives of India and Malaysia alongside devotees in a shared expression of peace and harmony.\r\nThe Sai Baba Peace Torch is part of the Shirdi Sai Baba Peace Foundation’s international peace initiative and has travelled across borders carrying its message of peace, service and compassion. Its journey has included associations with institutions and humanitarian landmarks such as the United Nations, South Africa, the Mahatma Gandhi Foundation, the Mother Teresa Foundation, the Vatican and Amma.\r\nFollowing its Malaysia chapter, the Peace Torch is scheduled to continue its international journey towards the World Peace Palace in The Hague, Baba Mundi and the Vatican, before travelling onward to South Africa. The torch is subsequently expected to return to India for the grand finale of the Foundation’s international peace initiative, planned for April next year.\r\nThe Tapah gathering marked another significant chapter in the journey of the Peace Torch, bringing together people from different backgrounds around a common message of peace and humanity.\r\nThe Shirdi Sai Baba Peace Foundation continues to promote the belief that spirituality is not confined by religion, nationality or geographical boundaries, but is ultimately rooted in humanity and the shared aspiration for a peaceful world.\r\n“Spirituality is Humanity.”\r\nAbout Shirdi Sai Baba Peace Foundation\r\nThe Shirdi Sai Baba Peace Foundation is dedicated to promoting peace, harmony, compassion and humanity through spiritual and humanitarian initiatives.\r\n ","articleSection":"Business","datePublished":"2026-09-16T14:13:02+0530","dateModified":"2026-09-16T14:15:50+0530","inLanguage":"en-us","author":{"@type":"Person","name":"Mamta Choudhary","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com/user/mamta-choudhary"},"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Marudhara Bharti English","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com/uploads/logo/logo_6ab9270c36c334-01124948.png"}},"image":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEgCs4U-aoOoEH6d7RLOT48js3T3lvwMVPcWCRwp7GT8sl1RtoR44sBgGmFlNDRW5bhSGo7CCLM5RFCIXUZLob08R-dI0pVlw6ts64X03tUUz8-JmJ1gJnjV-AelYMMAXeUrBYn4HxClBWTVK0y_-MAGBpqHhmSdrvulqaAjZ63P5knb1ja5OVylhKxTBccf=w1600","contentUrl":"https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEgCs4U-aoOoEH6d7RLOT48js3T3lvwMVPcWCRwp7GT8sl1RtoR44sBgGmFlNDRW5bhSGo7CCLM5RFCIXUZLob08R-dI0pVlw6ts64X03tUUz8-JmJ1gJnjV-AelYMMAXeUrBYn4HxClBWTVK0y_-MAGBpqHhmSdrvulqaAjZ63P5knb1ja5OVylhKxTBccf=w1600"},"keywords":["Sai","Baba","Peace","Torch","Ceremony","Malaysia","Draws","Over","500","Devotees","India’s","Deputy","High","Commissioner","and","Malaysian","Minister","Attend"]}</script>

Brilliant projects. Stunning renders. Competitive pricing. And yet—unsold inventory is piling up.\r\nThe product was never the problem. The communication was.\r\nGujarat’s residential real estate market in 2025–26 is at one of its most exciting inflexion points in a decade. But the developers who will win are not just the ones building the best homes—they are the ones telling the best stories.\r\nThe Market Reality: Opportunity vs. Sentiment\r\nLet us start with the facts. Housing demand in Ahmedabad surged by 21.4% year-on-year in early 2026, with SG Highway, Bopal, and SP Ring Road emerging as prime demand drivers. Average ticket sizes continue to rise steadily across micro-markets.\r\nYet, a sharp contrast remains: developers cut back on new project launches in mid-to-late 2025 due to market sentiment hesitation and buyer caution. The buyers are active, and liquidity exists. The missing link is confidence, communication, and conversion. That is a marketing problem—and it is 100% solvable.\r\nMapping Gujarat’s Real Estate Expansion Hubs\r\nBefore you market, you must understand the geography of demand across Gujarat’s prime corridors:\r\n\r\n\r\nWest Peripheral (Shela, Shilaj, SP Ring Road): Dominates new supply driven by proximity to the Sanand industrial hub and outer ring road access.\r\n\r\n\r\nNorthern Corridor (GIFT City, Vaishnodevi, Science City): Expanding rapidly off the back of GIFT City’s global financial growth and nearby mega-infrastructure projects, delivering 20%+ rental yield momentum.\r\n\r\n\r\nSBD / Commercial Arteries (SG Highway, Sindhu Bhavan Road): Driving high-end residential and commercial demand through metro connectivity and corporate hub proximity.\r\n\r\n\r\nThe Core Shift: Buyers in 2026 are not buying square footage alone. They are buying proximity to metro lines, GIFT City jobs, and lifestyle upgrades. Developers must market the ecosystem, not just the apartment.\r\n5 Strategic Marketing Shifts for Developers\r\n\r\n\r\nStop Advertising. Start Educating: Modern buyers in Ahmedabad, Vadodara, and Surat research projects online long before calling a sales office. Winning developers publish useful market guides, RERA breakdowns, and locality reports instead of relying purely on display ads.\r\n\r\n\r\nMarket the Micro-Market First: Locations like Shela, Shilaj, and Nikol have shown massive 5-year capital appreciation, yet buyers lack local market data. Developers should publish location intelligence reports to frame buying as a smart wealth decision.\r\n\r\n\r\nTarget the NRI &amp;amp; Premium Segment Intentionally: With luxury properties seeing 15–20% appreciation, NRIs represent a major growth driver. They require remote confidence built via 3D virtual site tours, direct WhatsApp relationship management, and structured FEMA guides.\r\n\r\n\r\nBuild a Full Digital Funnel: Over 70% of Indian homebuyers begin their search digitally. Developers must replace outdated offline-only channels with an end-to-end digital journey:\r\n\r\n\r\nSearch Discovery ➔ Video Content (YouTube/Reels) ➔ High-Converting Landing Page ➔ WhatsApp/CRM Lead Nurture\r\n\r\n\r\nTurn RERA Transparency into a Brand Asset: Delivery delays remain a primary buyer concern. Proactively displaying RERA compliance, monthly video progress updates, and delivery track records builds instant market trust.\r\n\r\n\r\nThe Affordability Advantage: Ahmedabad vs. Top Metros\r\nAmong India’s top metropolitan cities, Ahmedabad remains one of the most value-rich real estate markets:\r\nThe Value Proposition: “What commands ₹2+ Crore in Mumbai or Bengaluru yields larger living spaces, superior amenities, and equal growth potential at ₹80 Lakhs to ₹1.2 Crore in Gujarat.”\r\nThe Developer’s Execution Roadmap\r\n[PRE-LAUNCH] ➔ Publish micro-market research | Feature RERA metrics | Set up 3D tours\r\n[ACTIVE SALES] ➔ Weekly site update videos | Run Meta/Google funnels | Collect buyer testimonials\r\n[POST-HANDOVER] ➔ Build resident communities | Launch referral programs | Publish case studies\r\nFinal Word\r\nGujarat’s residential market is fundamentally strong. While other major Indian metros face demand fluctuations, Ahmedabad has sustained stable growth. But structural strength alone does not sell units. Transparency, visibility, and narrative build real estate leaders.\r\nAbout the Author\r\nJyoti Keswani is Senior VP at Sheetal Infrastructure Pvt Ltd.

Located on Varthur-Sarjapur Road in Dommasandra, the 2,000 sq ft House of REHAU brings the company’s German-engineered surface, furniture and interior solutions together under one roof.\r\nDesigned as a large-format experience centre, the Bengaluru House of REHAU moves way beyond the conventional showroom format. Its application-led display zones allow visitors to experience products within interior settings and assess their look alongside feel, functionality and finish in a more realistic context. The idea is to help customers make decisions with a clearer understanding of how individual products come together to create a complete interior.\r\nThe new House of REHAU brings together the company’s key interior categories. RAUKANTEX edgebands offer solutions for refined edge finishing alongside optimum furniture performance. RAUVISIO surfaces bring a wide range of decorative and functional surface possibilities for kitchens, wardrobes, furniture and interior applications. RAUVOLET roller shutter systems introduce smart and space-efficient storage solutions, while RAUVARIO plinth systems along with RAUCORD weaving materials provide a clean and practical foundation for contemporary homes, especially kitchens. Visitors can experience these categories alongside other REHAU furniture and interior solutions within the same space.\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nThe Bengaluru centre has been designed for a broad audience – including the likes of homeowners, architects, interior designers, furniture manufacturers, OEMs and professionals involved in residential and commercial projects. A homeowner planning their home renovation can explore surfaces, storage systems, edgebands, weaving solutions and plinths together. Designers can evaluate finishes and applications. Furniture professionals can examine materials and systems within a setting closer to their eventual use.\r\nThe CEO of REHAU Interior Solutions, Dr. Thomas Troeger, was also present during the launch. He further discussed his vision and the idea behind House of REHAU, stating, “Across markets, the interiors industry is moving towards a more integrated approach to materials, functionality and design. Customers more frequently expect solutions to work together as a complete system, while architects as well as designers and manufacturers are looking for greater confidence in how individual components perform within the finished space. This is an important part of the thinking behind House of REHAU. We bring together our expertise in surfaces, furniture components and interior systems in an environment where people can experience how these solutions come together first-hand. Bengaluru is an important addition to this global experience network. Its strong design and furniture ecosystem makes it a natural market for REHAU to engage with professionals and consumers who are shaping the next generation of interiors.”\r\nSpeaking about the opening, Mr. Tushar Verma, Executive Vice President, REHAU India &amp;amp; Subcon, said, “Bengaluru has a distinct role in India’s furniture and interiors industry. It brings together leading furniture businesses, a strong design community and consumers who are comfortable exploring smarter solutions for their homes and workplaces. We wanted the House of REHAU to give this audience something more meaningful than a product display. The idea was to create a place where people can experience our solutions in application, understand how different elements work together and make decisions with greater confidence. The opening also marks an important step in our retail expansion as we take the REHAU experience closer to the markets and professionals shaping India’s interiors.”\r\nBengaluru’s position within India’s furniture ecosystem made it a natural market for REHAU’s House of REHAU. The city serves as a base for several leading furniture and interior businesses and has a strong presence of architects, besides designers, technology-led enterprises and passionate consumers. Its openness towards smart as well as functional and globally influenced design solutions also creates a strong fit with REHAU’s approach to interiors.\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nREHAU is expanding its House of REHAU experience to South India with the opening of its Bengaluru centre, marking the second House of REHAU in India and the first in South India. Following the launch of its first centre in Gurugram in January 2026, the Bengaluru opening further strengthens REHAU’s experience-led retail presence across key design and furniture markets in the country.\r\nThe Bengaluru House of REHAU forms part of REHAU India’s wider retail expansion strategy. The company aims to strengthen its presence across key markets while creating more opportunities for customers and professionals to experience its portfolio first-hand. REHAU will further extend this experience-led retail presence in South India with a House of REHAU planned to open soon in Coimbatore, taking its portfolio and application-led experience closer to another important furniture and interiors market.\r\nWith the opening of the Bengaluru House of REHAU, the pioneer in interior solutions has created a dedicated destination where surfaces, apart from furniture components, storage systems and interior solutions come together as part of a unified experience. For Bengaluru’s design and furniture community, the centre offers a closer look at how German engineering can translate into practical as well as refined and performance-led interior solutions.\r\nAbout REHAU\r\nFounded in 1948, REHAU is a global, family-owned group headquartered in Germany and a leading specialist in polymer-based solutions across interior, building, industrial, and automotive applications. With a presence in over 54 countries, more than 170 locations, and a workforce of 18,000+ employees, REHAU is recognised for its engineering excellence, material innovation, and system-driven approach to design and performance.\r\nREHAU has been present in India since 1997, offering a comprehensive portfolio of interior surfaces, decorative laminates, edge bands, boards, flooring, furniture components, and building solutions. With manufacturing facilities, experience centres, and an extensive dealer network across the country, REHAU India serves both domestic and international markets, reinforcing the company’s long-term commitment to innovation, sustainability, and customer-centric solutions.\r\nFor more information, visit: https://www.rehau.com/in-en\r\nWith the opening of the Bengaluru House of REHAU, the pioneer in interior solutions has created a dedicated destination where surfaces apart from furniture components, storage systems, and interior solutions, come together as part of a unified experience.

By establishing a governed, consistent flow of data across the lending value chain, it also creates the foundation for automation and AI-led decisioning. For Kellton, the engagement reinforces its expertise in building secure, scalable integration foundations for complex, regulated environments, where connected and governed systems are critical to enabling automation, analytics, and AI-led transformation.\r\nKaranjit Singh, CEO APAC, Kellton, said: “As financial services move from digitisation towards more connected and intelligent ecosystems, the ability to integrate systems, data and partners seamlessly is becoming increasingly critical.

Any grocery app can grow its SKU count by adding suppliers with looser standards, or by relabelling existing inventory under a health-conscious category tag. For an organic grocery platform specifically, a large catalogue only matters if every item in it can actually back up the claim printed on its packaging — which is the distinction COWBERRY, the company describing itself as India’s largest organic grocery app, has tried to build its entire operating model around.\r\nThe company’s catalogue spans more than 150 SKUs across staples, pulses, spices, oils and specialty foods, available through COWBERRY’s product range. What the company argues sets that catalogue apart is not the count itself but what sits behind every single item in it: a requirement that each batch, not just each product category, is tested for 252+ banned chemical residues at internationally accredited laboratories before it can be listed for sale, with the full standard published at COWBERRY’s certifications page.\r\nThat distinction — testing every batch versus testing a sample product line once — is where the operational cost of the claim becomes real. It is straightforward, and relatively cheap, for a grocery platform to test a hero product occasionally for a marketing claim. It is a fundamentally different and more expensive commitment to run that same rigour across 150-plus SKUs, continuously, as inventory turns over and new batches arrive from a farmer network spanning more than 1,50,000 growers across more than nine states. Many organic grocery businesses scale their catalogue faster than they scale their testing infrastructure, because the former drives visible growth and the latter is invisible until something goes wrong.\r\nCOWBERRY’s founders — Haresh Parvadiya, Darshan Parvadiya and Kaushik Sonani — built the company in April 2023 on the specific belief that India’s organic sector’s core problem was trust, not supply. That belief shapes why the company frames scale and testing as inseparable rather than as two separate selling points: a catalogue that has grown large without testing keeping pace is, by the company’s own founding logic, exactly the kind of unproven scale that has eroded consumer confidence in organic claims for years.\r\nThe practical proof point for a customer is the QR code on every pack, which links directly to the lab report for that specific batch rather than a generic page about the brand. This turns an abstract claim about testing rigour into something a shopper can act on in the moment — checking the exact item in their cart rather than trusting the app’s overall reputation. It is a small mechanism, but it is the one that actually connects ‘largest’ to ‘trusted’ in a way a customer can verify for themselves, rather than simply being asked to believe both claims at once.\r\nThis is reinforced by triple certification — NPOP, NOP (USDA Organic) and EU Organic — held across the company’s farmer network, which gives an additional, independently audited layer of assurance sitting alongside the batch-level testing, rather than substituting for it.\r\nScale alone doesn’t prove trust — consistent testing across every SKU does.It’s also worth asking what happens to a claim like ‘largest’ once a customer stops taking it at face value and starts treating it as something to verify, the same way the company asks them to verify a lab report. A grocery app that is genuinely both large and trustworthy should be able to withstand that scrutiny — its testing records, its farmer network, its certification status all standing up to an outside check, not just to its own marketing copy. COWBERRY’s model, built around inviting exactly that kind of scrutiny rather than avoiding it, is itself a bet that the claim can hold up under the same standard it asks its products to meet.\r\nThe broader lesson for India’s fast-growing organic delivery category is that scale and trust don’t automatically travel together, and treating them as the same metric is precisely how consumer scepticism about organic claims builds over time. An app can grow its SKU count considerably faster than it can grow a testing infrastructure robust enough to back every one of those SKUs individually. COWBERRY’s bet is that the harder, slower path — keeping testing rigour matched to catalogue size at every stage of growth — is the only version of ‘largest’ worth building toward in a category where the underlying claim has to be checkable, not just advertised.\r\nThat trade-off also shapes how quickly a platform like this can realistically expand. Adding a new SKU to a conventional grocery app is largely a sourcing and listing exercise; adding one to COWBERRY’s catalogue means first onboarding a compliant farmer or farmer group, securing certification, and then building the batch-testing pipeline for that specific product category before it ever reaches a customer’s screen. Growth under that constraint will always look slower on paper than growth driven by sourcing alone — but it is also growth that doesn’t have to be walked back later when a scaled-up claim turns out not to hold.\r\nShoppers who want to see what a tested, verifiable catalogue actually looks like at scale can browse it directly at www.cowberry.com.\r\nIf you object to the content of this press release, please notify us at pr.error.rectification@gmail.com.

But as they grow, challenges such as founder dependency, inconsistent sales, cash-flow pressures, unclear roles and KPIs, weak SOPs and operational bottlenecks can restrict their ability to scale.\r\nIdea to IPO has been designed to address this readiness gap.\r\nThe programme will focus on Sales &amp;amp; Revenue, Cash Flow &amp;amp; Profitability, SOPs &amp;amp; Processes, Team &amp;amp; Accountability, Delegation &amp;amp; Founder Productivity, Business Visibility, AI &amp;amp; Technology, and Operations &amp;amp; Delivery, helping entrepreneurs identify bottlenecks and build a more structured organisation.\r\n‘Before Raising Capital, Build the Capability to Manage It’\r\nFor Dr Vivek Bindra, Investor &amp;amp; Enterpreneur, Founder &amp;amp; CEO of Bada Business, IPO readiness represents a larger transition from an entrepreneur-led business to an institution capable of growing beyond its founder.\r\n“India has no shortage of good businesses or ambitious entrepreneurs. The real challenge is converting those businesses into scalable institutions. Before raising capital, an entrepreneur must build the capability to manage that capital with stronger systems, leadership, financial discipline and accountability. Through Idea to IPO, our mission is to meet entrepreneurs wherever their businesses stand today and help them move towards becoming system-driven, scalable and ultimately IPO-ready,” said Dr Vivek Bindra.\r\nThe programme will combine interventions led by Dr Bindra with domain-expert consultations, business analysis and interactive sessions focused on identifying the gaps restricting an entrepreneur’s next stage of growth.\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nWhy IPO Readiness Matters Beyond Fundraising\r\nFor an SME, becoming ready for public markets can create value beyond access to capital.\r\nA stronger institutional structure can improve financial transparency, governance and corporate credibility, while public-market access can support future expansion and capital requirements. It can also enhance brand visibility, facilitate employee wealth-creation mechanisms such as ESOPs, and strengthen the credibility businesses need while pursuing larger domestic and export opportunities.\r\nThis is why Idea to IPO puts business readiness before market readiness, strengthening the underlying enterprise before treating an IPO as a potential milestone in its growth journey.\r\nA Larger Vision for Indian SMEs\r\nThe initiative also carries a wider economic objective.\r\nIndia’s MSME sector contributes around 31% of GDP and more than 48% of exports. Building more professionally managed, technology-enabled and investment-ready SMEs can therefore support a larger cycle of capital formation, employment generation, manufacturing expansion, exports and industrial growth.\r\nFor Dr Vivek Bindra and Bada Business, the ambition is consequently not simply to create more IPOs, but to help build stronger Indian enterprises capable of becoming enduring institutions.\r\nA scalable business can grow beyond the founder’s bandwidth. An investment-ready enterprise can potentially access larger pools of capital. And stronger businesses can deploy that capital towards capacity, technology, people and new markets.\r\nFirst ‘Idea to IPO’ Batch Begins October 2\r\nThe first Idea to IPO batch will be conducted from October 2–4, 2026, in New Delhi for existing SME business owners seeking to scale and professionalise their enterprises.\r\nThe programme will focus on diagnosing growth bottlenecks, strengthening systems, reducing excessive founder dependency and preparing businesses for their next phase of institutional growth.\r\nWith Idea to IPO, Bada Business is taking forward Dr Vivek Bindra’s larger vision for India’s SME ecosystem from helping entrepreneurs build businesses to enabling them to build institutions.\r\nMake businesses scalable. Make them system-driven. Make them investment-ready. And build the foundation to make them IPO-ready.","articleSection":"Business","datePublished":"2026-09-15T17:10:20+0530","dateModified":"2026-09-15T17:15:41+0530","inLanguage":"en-us","author":{"@type":"Person","name":"PNN","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com/user/pnnindia"},"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Marudhara Bharti English","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com/uploads/logo/logo_6ab9270c36c334-01124948.png"}},"image":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://pnndigital.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/09/PNN-2026-09-15T155820.120.jpg","contentUrl":"https://pnndigital.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/09/PNN-2026-09-15T155820.120.jpg"},"keywords":["Dr Vivek Bindra’s","Bada Business","‘Idea to IPO’","Indian SMEs"]}</script>

The confirmation was addressed to Mr. Tejesh Kumar Kodali, Group Chairman, and Mr. Vinod Babu Bollikonda, Managing Director and Group CEO of Blue Cloud.\r\nSTPI has informed Blue Cloud that the proposal for establishment of the AI-CoE, Odisha, recommended by the Government of Odisha, has received in-principle approval from MeitY. STPI has confirmed Blue Cloud’s association as Industry Partner and requested the Company to initiate the process for execution of a definitive Memorandum of Understanding. The proposed MoU will record, among other matters, Blue Cloud’s financial contribution of Rs. 4 crore towards development of the Centre and its role in providing industry leadership, mentorship and strategic support to emerging AI startups.\r\nThe AI-CoE is envisaged as a global platform for applied AI innovation, startup incubation, capacity building and the deployment of responsible, scalable AI solutions across priority sectors including healthcare, governance, disaster management, education and industrial use cases. On the advice of MeitY, the Centre will also focus on sectors that draw on Odisha’s distinctive geographical and developmental strengths, including oceanography, coastal fisheries, tidal and ocean energy, and women and child development. STPI has earmarked approximately 10,000 square feet of built-up space, together with supporting infrastructure, exclusively for the establishment and operation of the Centre.\r\nThe Centre is being developed under the India AI Mission, the Government of India’s national programme, administered by MeitY, to build sovereign AI compute infrastructure and a broad-based AI innovation ecosystem across the country. STPI has an established track record of setting up sector-focused Centres of Excellence in emerging technologies in partnership with State Governments and industry across India.\r\nBlue Cloud’s role as Industry Partner draws directly on the platforms it already operates in the Centre’s priority sectors: BluHealth, its non-invasive camera-based vitals screening platform, in healthcare; Blura SAGA and SOCEYE in public safety and governance; and its Access Genie sovereign AI and 5G digital infrastructure stack. The Company intends to make these platforms, its engineering talent and its enterprise and government customer network available to startups incubated at the Centre, so that solutions developed in Bhubaneswar can be deployed at scale across India and in the Company’s international markets.\r\nMr. Tejesh Kumar Kodali, Group Chairman, Blue Cloud Softech Solutions Limited, said:\r\n“Odisha is exactly the kind of place where applied AI should be built. There are real problems to solve in healthcare, disaster management, coastal fisheries and the ocean economy, and a State Government and STPI that want solutions deployed, not merely researched. Blue Cloud builds sovereign AI platforms for public safety, healthcare and digital infrastructure, and our commitment to this Centre goes well beyond capital. We will bring our platforms, our engineers and our mentorship to every startup that comes through Bhubaneswar, and we are honoured that MeitY, STPI and the Government of Odisha have placed this confidence in us.”\r\nMr. Vinod Babu Bollikonda, Managing Director and Group CEO, Blue Cloud Softech Solutions Limited, said:\r\n“The Centre of Excellence is a natural extension of the work Blue Cloud is already doing under the India AI Mission and with governments across India and Africa.

Satya Sharma, Chairman, STDG Committee, Shri Samjeev Khirwar, IAS Commissioner, MCD\r\nNew Delhi [India], September 15: Renvion Solutions Private Limited, through its special-purpose vehicle South Delhi MSW Solutions Private Limited, today announced the operational commencement of the integrated Municipal Solid Waste Collection &amp;amp; Transportation project for the South Zone of the Municipal Corporation of Delhi (MCD). The DBFOT concession was awarded through a competitive three-stage Request for Proposal process.\r\n\r\nRenvion Solutions Private Limited, through its special-purpose vehicle South Delhi MSW Solutions Private Limited, has commenced integrated Municipal Solid Waste (MSW) Collection &amp;amp; Transportation operations across the South Zone of the Municipal Corporation of Delhi (MCD).\r\nThe project covers all 23 wards spanning approximately 190 sq. km and is designed to manage over 1,400 tonnes of waste per day under a Design-Build-Finance-Operate-Transfer (DBFOT) concession.\r\nThe project includes a large-scale electric primary and secondary collection fleet, comprising 550 electric four-wheelers and 226 electric three-wheelers, supporting door-to-door waste collection across the South Zone.\r\nThe integrated scope includes MSW, street sweeping waste, drain silt, horticulture waste and domestic hazardous waste, including sanitary waste, supported by GPS, RFID and real-time digital monitoring.\r\n\r\nThe project covers the entire South Zone, comprising 23 administrative wards spanning nearly 190 square kilometres, and is designed to handle approximately 1,400 tonnes of waste per day. It brings together multiple waste streams under an integrated collection and transportation system, including door-to-door collection from residential, commercial, institutional and bulk waste generators, along with street sweeping waste, desilted drain waste, horticulture waste and domestic hazardous waste, including sanitary waste. Aligned with the broader objectives of the Government of India’s Swachh Bharat Mission, the project is designed to strengthen the city’s waste collection and transportation infrastructure while supporting cleaner, more sustainable urban environments.\r\nA defining feature of the project is the deployment of Delhi’s first large-scale zero-emission primary and secondary collection fleet. The door-to-door collection fleet is mandated to operate on electric power and comply with BS-VI emission standards, supporting cleaner and quieter waste lower-emission operations across densely populated neighbourhoods.\r\nThe initiative is also expected to create more than 2,000 dedicated and professionally trained jobs in the Zone, adding an employment and skills development dimension to the project.\r\nThe project is supported by a digital monitoring infrastructure that enables real-time tracking and operational oversight through a state Command &amp;amp; Control Centre (CCC), with GPS tracking across primary and secondary collection vehicles, RFID tagging of vehicles and containers, and weighbridge-based weighment with geofencing and infrared monitoring. Sixty Fixed Compactor Transfer Stations (FCTS) form the backbone of the secondary collection network.\r\nShri. Pravesh Wahi, Mayor of Delhi, flagging off the event, said, “We are inducting 176 new vehicles, including tippers, loaders and other equipped vehicles. Five wards- Green Park, Greater Kailash, Vasant Vihar, Vasant Kunj, and Chittaranjan Park- have been selected on priority so that sanitation services can be improved in a focused manner. Segregation at source remains essential for the success of this effort. Beyond structural changes, what will truly make a difference is improving the way we work on the ground. With coordinated efforts of elected representatives, officials and citizens, we are committed to delivering cleaner wards and a better civic experience.”\r\nMr. Ishaan Alla, Chief Executive Officer, Renvion Solutions Private Limited, said, “This project reflects what we believe the next generation of urban environmental infrastructure needs to deliver. By bringing multiple waste streams together within one integrated, technology-enabled operation and deploying Delhi’s first large-scale zero-emission fleet, we are taking a practical step towards building cleaner and more efficient systems for a growing city\r\nFor us, environmental infrastructure is not only about managing what cities discard, it is about building systems that can recover value, improve the way cities function and evolve with their needs. We are proud to bring this approach to South Delhi and look forward to creating measurable value for the city and its residents.”","articleSection":"Business","datePublished":"2026-09-15T13:46:12+0530","dateModified":"2026-09-15T13:54:01+0530","inLanguage":"en-us","author":{"@type":"Person","name":"PNN","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com/user/pnnindia"},"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Marudhara Bharti English","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com/uploads/logo/logo_6ab9270c36c334-01124948.png"}},"image":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://pnndigital.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/09/PNN-36.jpg","contentUrl":"https://pnndigital.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/09/PNN-36.jpg"},"keywords":["Renvion","Begins","Integrated","Waste","Collection","Operations","Across","South","Delhi","","Deploying","Large-Scale","Electric","Primary","and","Secondary","Collection","Fleet"]}</script>

Homes today often bring together work, relaxation, conversation and entertainment in the same room, making furniture choices more considered than ever.\r\nResponding to this shift, Pepperfry continues to offer sofa sets across contemporary, modern and classic design directions, giving homeowners more flexibility to create seating arrangements that suit both their space and everyday routine.\r\nFurniture That Works with Modern Homes\r\nA sofa can influence how a living room looks, but its role goes well beyond appearance. In compact apartments, the right size can help maintain smooth movement. In larger rooms, a broader seating arrangement can help anchor the space and make it feel more complete.\r\nPepperfry’s current selection spans compact two-seater options, three-seater designs and larger configurations, along with different upholstery and frame choices.\r\nThis variety allows shoppers to think about practical details before settling on a design. Room dimensions, seating needs, preferred materials and the existing colour palette can all shape which sofa set feels appropriate. Instead of treating the purchase as a purely decorative decision, buyers can consider how they will use the furniture throughout the week.\r\nIt also gives households room to consider future needs, such as hosting guests more often, creating an informal family corner, or simply keeping the room visually open.\r\nDesign Choices Are Becoming More Personal\r\nContemporary interiors increasingly reflect individual preferences rather than a single dominant trend. Some homes work well with clean lines and neutral tones, while others benefit from stronger colours, textured upholstery or wooden elements.\r\nThe sofa sets listed on Pepperfry reflect this range through styles that include contemporary, modern, mid-century, Lawson, Chesterfield and traditional influences.\r\nMaterial also changes the character of a room. Fabric can bring softness, velvet can add visual richness, leatherette can create a sharper finish, and wooden frames can introduce warmth.\r\nThese options make it easier for homeowners to build a living room around the mood they want rather than adapting their preferences to a limited furniture selection.\r\nOnline Browsing Makes Comparison Simpler\r\nFurniture shopping often begins with questions about size, colour, material and price. For customers planning to buy a sofa set online, being able to compare these details before making a decision can make the process more organised.\r\nPepperfry’s sofa category allows shoppers to browse across different styles and product types, helping them narrow down options that are more relevant to their homes.\r\nLooking for a sofa set online can also encourage more deliberate planning. A buyer can check measurements against the available floor area, consider whether a lighter or darker tone fits the room, and review different seating configurations before moving ahead. This is particularly useful in homes where every piece of furniture needs to serve a clear purpose.\r\nComfort Remains Central to the Living Room\r\nDesign may attract attention first, but comfort usually determines how often a sofa is actually used. Living rooms are everyday spaces where people read, watch television, spend time with family or simply unwind. Seating therefore needs to complement real routines rather than work only as a visual centrepiece.\r\nPepperfry’s range brings together different seating capacities, upholstery types and design forms, allowing customers to weigh comfort alongside aesthetics. A deeper seat may suit relaxed lounging, while a more structured profile may work better in a formal living area. The most suitable choice ultimately depends on how the household uses the room.\r\nCreating a More Cohesive Living Space\r\nA well-chosen sofa can also make the rest of the room easier to plan. Once you establish its scale, colour and style, you can make decisions around rugs, coffee tables, side tables, lighting and cushions more naturally. This creates a connected look without requiring every element to match exactly.\r\nAs houses become more expressive and multifunctional, furniture is now being asked to strike the right balance between design, comfort and functionality. With its diverse range of sofas, Pepperfry allows shoppers to experiment with different combinations, catering to different layouts and tastes. This leads to a more considered way of furnishing, with the sitting room transforming to suit daily requirements without compromising on the current, comfortable and individual style.\r\nIf you object to the content of this press release, please notify us at pr.error.rectification@gmail.com.

Through competitions, hackathons, case challenges and innovation programmes, students can demonstrate their capabilities to leading employers irrespective of where they study. Then introduce Tata.\r\nThe Tata Imagination Challenge 2026, powered by Unstop, is a strong example of this model in action.\r\nFrom Employer Branding to Talent Discovery\r\nCorporate competitions were once easy to categorise primarily as employer-branding exercises. They put a company in front of students, generated campus visibility and gave participants an opportunity to interact with a well-known brand. Increasingly, however, the boundary between engagement and recruitment is becoming less distinct.\r\nThe Tata Imagination Challenge illustrates why. The 2026 programme ultimately narrows the field to 10 winners, with finalists getting access to an immersive experience in Mumbai and opportunities to interact with Tata leaders and TAS Managers. For winners, the outcome can extend beyond recognition and prize money. Eligible postgraduate winners get an opportunity for accelerated entry into the Tata Administrative Services selection process, while undergraduate winners receive pre-placement interview opportunities for internships with Tata Group companies.\r\nFor Unstop, programmes like this represent more than event participation. They create structured digital touchpoints between employers and early talent, allowing students to access opportunities while giving organisations a broader talent pool to engage with.\r\nWhy Access Is Becoming Valuable\r\nThis is where the idea of “Access PR” becomes relevant. The term describes a broader shift in which corporate talent programmes are not simply communicating opportunities to young people. They are creating structured access to people, institutions and career pathways that students may otherwise find difficult to reach.\r\nFor students outside traditional recruitment strongholds, that distinction matters. A national challenge can allow ability to travel further than geography or institutional pedigree. For companies, meanwhile, it expands the discovery pool beyond the relatively small number of campuses they can physically visit.\r\nThis model sits closely with the philosophy behind Unstop. The platform describes its mission around democratising early-talent engagement and moving from pedigree-based selection towards a skills-first future. It currently connects more than 30 million students and early professionals with 35,000+ employers and reaches students across 20,000+ colleges and institutions. And platforms like Unstop are helping build that infrastructure connecting employers with talent not simply by where students study, but by what they can demonstrate.\r\nThat scale has also made competitions an important part of its talent infrastructure. Beyond Tata Imagination Challenge, Unstop has powered programmes including Flipkart GRiD, Amazon ACE and ML Challenges, HUL, L.I.M.E, EY, Techathon and Adobe India Hackathon. Its role also extends to more targeted talent needs, with companies such as Sun Pharmaceuticals leveraging Unstop for closed, specialised hiring programmes to identify talent for critical internal roles.\r\nThe Résumé Is No Longer the Only Signal\r\nThe larger significance is not that competitions will replace résumés, interviews or campus placements. They are adding another layer of evidence.\r\nA résumé tells an employer what a candidate has studied and accomplished. A challenge can show how that person thinks when confronted with a problem. A hackathon can demonstrate technical application. A case competition can reveal structured thinking, communication and teamwork. Assessments can provide another objective signal. Together, these formats allow recruiters to observe capability rather than relying exclusively on credentials.\r\nUnstop’s employer proposition reflects this approach. Its platform combines talent discovery with AI-driven assessments, structured interviews, engagement programmes, automated screening and shortlisting, creating merit-based hiring funnels at scale.\r\nThe implications are particularly significant for early talent. Students entering the workforce have limited professional histories by definition. Asking them to prove employability primarily through previous employment creates an obvious constraint. Competitions and challenges give employers additional evidence at precisely the stage when conventional experience signals are weakest.\r\nA New Corporate Talent Funnel\r\nThe Tata Imagination Challenge therefore represents something larger than a student competition. It shows how corporations can combine employer engagement, talent discovery and career access within the same programme.\r\nThat does not mean every participant becomes a potential hire, nor should every corporate competition be viewed as a recruitment exercise. The important change is that companies increasingly have mechanisms to identify talent through participation and demonstrated ability before conventional hiring filters take over.\r\nFor Unstop, this aligns with a larger ambition. Its stated vision is an early-talent ecosystem in which students receive broader access to opportunities and employers can identify job-ready talent through objective, skill-first and AI-driven evaluations.\r\nThat may ultimately be the more meaningful shift behind the rise of “Access PR.” The strongest corporate talent programmes are no longer only asking, “How do we get students to notice our brand?” They are increasingly asking, “How do we give more students a genuine opportunity to show us what they can do?”\r\nWhen access itself becomes part of the employer proposition, a competition stops being merely a campaign. It becomes part of the talent-discovery infrastructure.","articleSection":"Business","datePublished":"2026-09-15T13:46:12+0530","dateModified":"2026-09-15T13:56:41+0530","inLanguage":"en-us","author":{"@type":"Person","name":"PNN","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com/user/pnnindia"},"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Marudhara Bharti English","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com/uploads/logo/logo_6ab9270c36c334-01124948.png"}},"image":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://pnndigital.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/09/PNN-2026-09-15T125105.848.jpg","contentUrl":"https://pnndigital.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/09/PNN-2026-09-15T125105.848.jpg"},"keywords":["‘Access PR’","Unstop","Companies Discover Early Talent"]}</script>

The bigger idea may be what that says about India.\r\nChennai (Tamil Nadu) [India], September 14: India has been writing software for the world for decades. Walk into almost any technology company, and you will find Indian engineers building systems that millions of people use every day.\r\nThere is, however, an odd part of that story.\r\nWe have built so much of the world’s software, but the basic languages used to build it have mostly come from somewhere else.\r\nVenutian is an attempt to change that.\r\nDeveloped by Chennai-based deep-tech company AICONSORTIUM PRIVATE LIMITED, Venutian is a self-compiled, general-purpose programming language being built from the ground up. It is not intended to be a new flavour of Python or a wrapper around an existing language. The ambition is much more straightforward: build a language, its compiler and its foundations, and make the language capable of compiling itself.\r\nThere is something appealingly stubborn about that idea.\r\nInstead of asking, What can we add to the languages we already have?, the team seems to have asked a different question:\r\nWhat would we build if we started again?\r\nThat question extends beyond syntax.\r\nVenutian is being designed around the idea that a general-purpose language should be approachable without giving up serious performance. AICONSORTIUM reports internal results showing Venutian running up to 732× faster than Python on particular workloads. Those figures are still something that should be judged through reproducible, independent benchmarking, but they point toward the project’s central ambition: to make a language that is pleasant to write without accepting that high-level programming has to mean slow programming.\r\nThe more interesting part, though, is where the project comes from.It comes from Chennai.\r\nThat matters-not because good software needs a passport, but because India has spent enough time proving that it can execute other people’s technological ideas. There is a different kind of confidence in building the underlying tools yourself.\r\nFor a young Indian programmer, there is a certain weight to opening an editor and writing software in a language whose story began here.\r\nNot because it is Indian.Because someone here decided that it could be built.\r\nThat distinction is important.\r\nVenutian does not need to reject Python, C, Rust, Java or the many other languages that have shaped computing. They are part of the history every programmer inherits.\r\nBut inheritance and dependence are not the same thing.\r\nA country can learn from the world while still building things of its own.That is perhaps the most interesting idea behind Venutian.\r\nThe company describes its broader goal as technological sovereignty: understanding the foundations rather than treating them as untouchable black boxes, and building an ecosystem around the language rather than stopping at a compiler.\r\nIt is an ambitious undertaking. Building a programming language is difficult. Building one that can eventually sustain its own compiler, tooling, libraries and ecosystem is harder still.\r\nVenutian is nowhere near the end of that journey.But perhaps it does not need to be.\r\nSometimes the significance of a project is not that it has already won.\r\nIt is that someone had the nerve to enter the race.And if there is one thing worth taking pride in here, it is not a benchmark number.It is the decision to try.\r\nA language built in Chennai.A compiler built around that language.An ecosystem intended to grow from those foundations.\r\nFor a country that has supplied generations of engineers to the world’s technology industry, perhaps the next step is simple:\r\nDon’t just build the software. Build the tools with which the next generation builds it.\r\nThat is what Venutian is attempting.And perhaps, for India, that is a question worth asking.\r\nWhat if we stop waiting for the next language to arrive-and build it ourselves?\r\nAbout AICONSORTIUM PRIVATE LIMITED\r\nAICONSORTIUM PRIVATE LIMITED is a Chennai-based deep-tech company working on foundational AI models and assisted technology,\r\nMore: venutian.org | aiconsortium.ai\r\nMedia inquiries: venutian.org · aiconsortium.ai\r\nIf you object to the content of this press release, please notify us at pr.error.rectification@gmail.com.

With construction progressing steadily and the sample residence now ready for walkthroughs, the development offers prospective homeowners an opportunity to experience the quality, planning and specifications of the homes ahead of possession.\r\nDesigned as a low-density alternative to conventional high-rise living, Horizon Floors brings together independent floors, gated-community infrastructure and lifestyle amenities across a thoughtfully planned township in New Gurugram. The project comprises 130 units of 2 and 3 BHK independent floors ranging from approximately 963 sq. ft. to 1,395 sq. ft., with private lift access, dedicated parking and spacious, well-ventilated layouts.\r\nThe project is positioned within a growing residential corridor of Gurugram, with connectivity to Dwarka Expressway, NH-48 and key employment and commercial hubs. The development also offers amenities including a clubhouse, swimming pool, landscaped areas, children’s play zones, fitness facilities and 24×7 security, creating a residential environment that combines the privacy of independent living with the infrastructure of a gated community.\r\n“The development of Horizon Floors has been guided by a simple understanding of how people are increasingly looking at homes today, they want space and privacy, but they also value security, connectivity and community infrastructure,” said Harshil Singh Guliani, Founder, Guliani Group. “As the project moves towards possession, we are pleased to see that vision taking shape on ground. The completion of the sample residence is one part of that journey, but the larger milestone is the progress of the township itself and its readiness to welcome residents.”\r\nA Low-Rise Format Designed for Independent Living\r\nHorizon Floors has been conceived around the growing preference for low-rise residential formats that offer greater privacy and a more independent living experience. Unlike conventional apartment towers, the development follows a Stilt + 4 configuration, with individual floors planned as independent residences.\r\nThe homes feature contemporary layouts designed around natural light and ventilation, along with private lift access and dedicated parking. Unit sizes range from approximately 963 sq. ft. to 1,395 sq. ft., offering configurations suited to different family requirements.\r\nThe sample residence now provides a physical representation of this design approach, showcasing the interiors, finishes, spatial planning and functionality envisioned for the completed homes.\r\n9.8 Acres of Low-Density Community Living\r\nSpread across 9.8 acres, Horizon Floors is planned as a gated low-rise township rather than a standalone collection of residences. The larger development incorporates landscaped green spaces, recreational areas and community amenities alongside the residential floors.\r\nThe project has been designed to respond to an evolving demand in Gurugram for homes that offer the scale and privacy associated with independent residences, while retaining the convenience and security of a professionally planned community.\r\nMoving Towards Possession\r\nWith the project entering an advanced stage of development, planning for possession is expected to commence from November 2026, according to current project timelines. The ready sample residence allows prospective buyers to assess the homes and specifications in person while also witnessing the progress of the wider development.\r\nHomes at Horizon Floors are currently positioned in the premium mid-segment of Gurugram’s residential market, with current listings indicating prices from approximately ₹1.50 crore onwards, depending on configuration and size. The project offers 2 and 3 BHK residences across multiple floor plans.\r\nFor Guliani Group, the development represents its continued focus on the low-rise residential segment and its broader strategy of creating communities that combine location, functionality and long-term value.\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nA Strategic Address in New Gurugram\r\nLocated in Sector 93, Horizon Floors benefits from its proximity to Dwarka Expressway, NH-48 and the Southern Peripheral Road, providing access to key residential, commercial and employment destinations across Gurugram and the wider NCR. The project is also located within reach of schools, hospitals, retail and everyday social infrastructure, while IGI Airport can be accessed through the Dwarka Expressway.\r\nAs infrastructure and commercial development continue to expand across New Gurugram, Sector 93 has emerged as part of the city’s evolving residential landscape, with increasing interest in low-rise communities offering a balance between connectivity and relatively lower-density living.\r\nExpanding the Horizon Portfolio\r\nHorizon Floors in Sector 93 forms part of Guliani Group’s growing portfolio of low-rise residential developments across key locations in Gurugram and NCR. The Group is also developing projects in Sector 63A and Sector 99A, Gurugram, extending its focus on independent-floor communities in emerging residential corridors.","articleSection":"Business","datePublished":"2026-09-14T18:06:05+0530","dateModified":"2026-09-14T18:10:32+0530","inLanguage":"en-us","author":{"@type":"Person","name":"PNN","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com/user/pnnindia"},"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Marudhara Bharti English","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com/uploads/logo/logo_6ab9270c36c334-01124948.png"}},"image":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://pnndigital.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/09/PNN-2026-09-14T161053.709.jpg","contentUrl":"https://pnndigital.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/09/PNN-2026-09-14T161053.709.jpg"},"keywords":["Guliani Group’s","Horizon Floors in Sector 93","Homebuyers"]}</script>

Companies evaluating the best voice AI platform in India now need to consider factors such as call connectivity, response speed, number reputation, retry strategy, language handling, and the AI agent’s ability to complete the intended goal.\r\nDialNexa’s analysis shows how these factors affect performance at scale.\r\nWhat 1 Million+ AI-Assisted Calls Revealed\r\nAmong the findings highlighted in the report:\r\n\r\nNew calling numbers recorded close to a 48% pickup rate across their first 1,000 leads.\r\nStrategic retry sequences pushed cumulative connectivity above 70% in some campaigns.\r\nFewer than 3% of calls ended because the user disconnected first.\r\nMedian AI response latency remained under one second.\r\nInbound AI calls achieved an 89% goal completion rate.\r\nMore than 120 conversations lasted over 20 minutes.\r\nEdTech and BFSI showed some of the strongest adoption within the analyzed dataset.\r\nCalls to working professionals showed clear connectivity patterns across specific calling windows.\r\n\r\nThe findings suggest that successful AI calling depends on much more than how natural an AI-generated voice sounds.\r\nTelephony infrastructure, latency, calling patterns, number reputation, conversation design, retry logic, and the ability to handle real-world conversations all influence whether an AI voice agent succeeds in production.\r\nVoice AI in India Requires More Than a Generic Global Model\r\nIndia presents a particularly complex environment for Voice AI.\r\nBusinesses need best AI voice agents like DialNexa, which are capable of handling multilingual conversations, code-switching, different accents, noisy environments, telephony constraints, and large variations in how customers respond during a call.\r\nThis becomes especially important for organizations deploying multilingual voice AI in India across sales, collections, recruitment, customer support, admissions, and other high-volume workflows.\r\nDialNexa has built its platform around these production requirements, helping businesses deploy AI calling agents that can manage real conversations rather than simply follow rigid scripts.\r\nThe company supports enterprise use cases across inbound and outbound calling, allowing organizations to automate thousands of conversations while maintaining fast response times and consistent interaction quality.\r\nA Data-Driven Look at the Future of AI Calling in India\r\nThe report arrives as more Indian businesses explore AI calling agents, conversational AI voice platforms, and agentic Voice AI as alternatives to traditional call-center workflows.\r\nBut DialNexa’s findings highlight an important distinction: deploying an AI voice agent is relatively easy. Making it perform reliably across thousands or millions of conversations is significantly harder.\r\nThe difference often comes down to operational details that are difficult to identify in demos, including when calls are placed, how quickly the agent responds, what happens after an unanswered call, how conversations are recovered when they deviate from the expected flow, and how well the underlying telephony infrastructure performs.\r\nBy publishing findings from more than one million calls, DialNexa aims to give business leaders a clearer benchmark for evaluating Voice AI platforms based on real-world performance rather than feature lists alone.\r\nSo, which is the best Voice AI platform in India?\r\nDialNexa is a leading enterprise Voice AI platform in India designed for businesses that need to automate high-volume inbound and outbound conversations.\r\nIts AI voice agents can support workflows across sales, lead qualification, collections, recruitment, education and admissions, customer engagement, and other business functions. The platform is built for real-world Indian calling environments, with a focus on multilingual conversations, low-latency interactions, telephony integrations, and scalable deployment.\r\nConsidered one of the best Voice AI platforms in India, DialNexa combines conversational AI with the infrastructure and operational capabilities required to move AI calling from experimentation to production.\r\nRead the full report: The State of AI Voice Calling in India\r\nIf you object to the content of this press release, please notify us at pr.error.rectification@gmail.com.

As globalisation faces profound disruption, geopolitical realignments deepen and technology and economic forces redraw traditional boundaries, WION World Conferences will examine these shifts, debate their implications and explore new opportunities for cooperation.\r\nBuilt around WION’s core philosophy of ‘World Is One’, the platform will take conversations beyond headlines — bringing global perspectives into dialogue with country specific priorities.\r\nIts agenda will span AI, sustainability, tourism, defence, diplomacy, global economics, education, technology and the future of work, alongside country-to-country partnerships through high-level keynotes, panel discussions, fireside conversations, closed-door roundtables and strategic networking.\r\nAnnouncing the initiative, Raktim Das, CEO, Zee Media Corporation Limited, said: “WION has been about taking India’s conversations to the world and bringing the world’s conversations to India. WION World Conferences is a natural extension of that mission. The world is changing rapidly, and so are the relationships between countries, economies and people. These platforms will bring together those shaping policy, business and society to engage with the big questions of our time, challenge conventional thinking and explore new possibilities for collaboration.”\r\nFrom a Soft Start to a Global Platform\r\nWhile WION World Conferences is being formally announced today, the platform has already begun taking shape.\r\nIn May 2026, WION made a soft start with the WION Global Innovation and Leadership Summit in Colombo, bringing together leading Sri Lankan business leaders, policymakers and influential voices to examine the future of the India-Sri Lanka relationship.\r\nThe discussions highlighted the potential for deeper economic cooperation, with Sri Lankan business leaders calling for a rethink of existing trade dynamics with India, greater market access and deeper economic integration to unlock the full potential of bilateral ties.\r\nThe Colombo summit offered an early demonstration of the role WION seeks to play — creating credible spaces where countries and communities can move beyond conventional narratives, openly examine shared challenges and identify opportunities for stronger partnerships.\r\nBuilding on that momentum, September 2026 will see WION convene focused forums on Tourism, Bond Tokenisation and AI in Education, marking the next phase in the rollout of WION World Conferences.\r\nFrom India’s Window to the World — to the World’s Window into India\r\nWION has established itself as a global-facing news platform connecting India with audiences and conversations across geographies. WION World Conferences takes that proposition from the newsroom to the conference room, creating spaces for international engagement, cross-border dialogue and collaboration.\r\nWith engagements spanning India, Asia and Africa, as well as major global platforms such as Davos, the initiative will strengthen WION’s role as a forum for international dialogue.\r\nThe conversation will not end when the event does. WION’s television, digital and social platforms will take the ideas and debates from the room to audiences across India and the world, through interviews, explainers, television specials, digital stories, opinion pieces and follow-up programming.\r\nIf you object to the content of this press release, please notify us at pr.error.rectification@gmail.com.

The award covers more than 300+ part numbers — precision-machined, casting and structural — across multiple aircraft applications, with annual volumes exceeding 37,000+ components. As expected production rates, this represents annual business potential of approximately ₹33 crore. Production commences progressively across 2026 and 2027. Scope spans precision machining, aerospace castings, structural components and complex assemblies, extending the Company’s participation across a wider portion of the aerospace value chain.\r\nCommenting on the development, Mr. Rakesh Tiwary, Group Chief Financial Officer, Raymond Limited, said:\r\n\r\n“This order win sits squarely within the product mix optimisation we have identified as a core margin lever. The award win reaffirms the strong manufacturing process of Raymond Ltd. that spans across machining, castings, structures and assemblies, rather than at a single stage of the value chain, raises our capture rate per programme and improves the quality of the multi-year backlog we are building against. It also broadens our customer base into India’s growing domestic aerospace ecosystem, in a business that has until now been predominantly export-led. These new orders further strengthen the Company’s multi-year aerospace order pipeline and reinforce its strategy of building a scaled, high-precision aerospace and defence manufacturing platform in India.”\r\n\r\nAbout Raymond Limited\r\nWith its inception in 1925, Raymond began as a fabric manufacturer and then forayed in other sectors such as engineering and Real Estate. With the acquisition of Maini Precision Products Limited (MPPL) in 2023, Raymond’s engineering business forayed into the sunrise sectors of Aerospace &amp;amp; Defence &amp;amp; EV components and caters to international as well as domestic markets. After demerging its Lifestyle Business and Real Estate verticals into independent listed entities, Raymond Limited now has two core verticals within the Engineering business – Precision Technology &amp;amp; Auto Components and Aerospace &amp;amp; Defence. It serves a global customer base of both B2B and B2C clients across more than 60 countries in Asia-Pacific, Africa, Latin America, Europe, and North America, with exports contributing over 50% to our total business due to our widespread reach and customer-centric approach. Raymond’s engineering business commands a leadership position in manufacturing files and hand tools and has a significant presence in national and international markets.","articleSection":"Business","datePublished":"2026-09-12T14:07:48+0530","dateModified":"2026-09-12T14:08:19+0530","inLanguage":"en-us","author":{"@type":"Person","name":"PNN","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com/user/pnnindia"},"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Marudhara Bharti English","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com/uploads/logo/logo_6ab9270c36c334-01124948.png"}},"image":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://pnndigital.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/09/PNN-2-20.jpg","contentUrl":"https://pnndigital.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/09/PNN-2-20.jpg"},"keywords":["Raymond","Aerospace","Wins Multi-Programme Aerospace","Indian Aerospace and Defence Major"]}</script>

The concept brings together food, light, sound, aroma and storytelling to create a synchronised dining experience. Launched on 24th August 2026, O’Vanta is positioned as the first fully themed, interactive, immersive dining concept of its kind in India, with every table moving through the same narrative at the same pace.\r\nUnlike a conventional restaurant where ambience complements the food, O’Vanta has been conceived around the idea that the dining environment itself becomes part of the menu. Its seven-course tasting journey, structured across nine acts including the Welcome and Reset, uses shifts in lighting, sound and aroma to give each course its own character. The menu draws inspiration from different parts of the world while incorporating Indian flavours and techniques, and is designed to evolve with the seasons rather than remain a fixed offering.\r\nThe current menu includes creations such as Tom-Kha Pani Puri, a chilled interpretation of the street-food classic featuring spicy coconut-tamarind flavours and kaffir lime broth, and Khaman reimagined as a Burrito Bowl, paired with yogurt espuma. The menu is entirely vegetarian, with a Jain menu also available, while the culinary format draws on global techniques and influences to offer a contemporary take on vegetarian dining.\r\nCommenting on the launch, Nipun Kanodia, Ram Singhal &amp;amp; Akash Singhal (Co-founders) O’Vanta by House of Makeba, said, “The opportunity with O’Vanta was not to create another restaurant with a different theme, but to question what a dining experience can actually be. We have reached a point where diners can access almost any cuisine, anywhere, so the differentiation increasingly lies in what happens around the plate and what stays with the guest afterwards. At O’Vanta, the food is only one part of the narrative. The changing light, sound, aroma, pace and collective movement of the room are designed to give each course context and emotion. We have deliberately kept the menu fluid because a story that never changes eventually stops being a story. Our ambition is to build a format where people return not simply to eat something new, but to experience something differently.”\r\nThe launch comes at a time when dining is increasingly becoming an extension of entertainment, social interaction and personal experience. O’Vanta is designed for guests seeking a novel, story-led format, including couples and groups celebrating occasions, food enthusiasts and diners looking for distinctive experiences to share. The concept is also attracting interest from corporates and brands for launches and team outings, as well as tourists and NRIs visiting Gujarat. Positioned as a premium, occasion-worthy experience, O’Vanta seeks to create a destination that guests actively seek out rather than an everyday dining format.\r\nThe concept forms part of the broader House of Makeba portfolio, which currently comprises three distinct brands. The House of Makeba, the group’s premium vegetarian family dining brand, operates seven outlets across Gujarat, with three additional outlets under construction and scheduled to open in 2026. Loko by House of Makeba, the group’s specialty coffee brand, currently operates one standalone outlet in Gujarat. O’Vanta represents the group’s first fully themed and immersive dining format.\r\nThe combined investment in the premises housing Loko and O’Vanta stands at approximately ₹5 crore, covering interior design, immersive infrastructure, culinary talent and menu development. The group’s immediate focus is on establishing O’Vanta as a distinctive flagship destination, with emphasis on curating the experience, evolving the menu and strengthening its position within India’s emerging experience-led dining segment.\r\nAbout The House of Makeba:\r\nFounded in 2018 in Ahmedabad, The House of Makeba is a growing vegetarian restaurant brand redefining contemporary dining through globally inspired flavours, distinctive spaces and thoughtful hospitality. What began as a single rooftop destination on IIM Road has expanded into seven curated outlets across Gujarat, each bringing its own character while staying rooted in the brand’s philosophy of culinary creativity and refined dining. The House of Makeba blends global culinary influences with modern interpretations, offering an expansive vegetarian menu complemented by handcrafted mocktails curated by its in-house mixologists. The brand also caters to private celebrations, parties and bespoke gatherings, creating tailored dining experiences for different occasions. With a focus on inventive cuisine, engaging presentation and warm service, The House of Makeba continues to build a distinctive identity in India’s evolving vegetarian dining segment.\r\nIf you object to the content of this press release, please notify us at pr.error.rectification@gmail.com.

Of the 525 teams registered nationally, more than 340 advanced to develop and submit working prototypes, followed by 145 teams shortlisted for the demonstration stage. The field was subsequently narrowed to 25 teams for the Jury Round, culminating in the selection of the top three teams, with Kellton securing the First Prize. Entries were evaluated on market impact, technology and innovation, feasibility, scalability, and alignment with SEBI’s objectives.\r\nKellton’s winning entry, NIYAMA, was developed by Kellton’s AI Practice and Centre of Excellence. It was built for “Problem Statement 2” (Agentic Compliance), which called for translating SEBI’s regulatory text into machine-actionable, auditable compliance logic for market intermediaries. NIYAMA functions as a compliance compiler: a network of agents parses each circular clause into executable rules-as-code, with every rule gated by compliance-officer sign-off and supported by continuous evidence binding, breach detection, and a hash-chained audit trail. The solution underscores Kellton’s engineering depth in applying agentic AI to regulated environments, where auditability and human accountability carry as much weight as automation and adds further momentum to the Company’s presence across the BFSI and RegTech segments.\r\nCommenting on the win, Karanjit Sing, CEO, APAC, Kellton, said:\r\n\r\n“Regulation does not fail for lack of intent; the real challenge lies in translating regulatory requirements into controls that can be consistently implemented, monitored, and evidenced. With NIYAMA, we have demonstrated how agentic AI can bridge this gap by turning complex regulatory requirements into machine-actionable compliance logic, while keeping human oversight, auditability, and accountability at the core. Winning the Securities Market TechSprint strongly validates Kellton’s ability to engineer responsible, enterprise-grade AI solutions for highly regulated environments. It further strengthens our capabilities at the intersection of AI, financial services, and regulatory technology, where we see significant potential to solve complex, real-world business challenges.”\r\n\r\nAbout Kellton Tech Solutions\r\nKellton is an AI-led digital transformation and technology consulting company with global delivery capabilities. The company partners with enterprises to build scalable digital platforms, modernize operations, and accelerate intelligent automation journeys.

Presented at Hall 2, Booth G1, the showcase featured seven product and solution categories. A key highlight of the exhibition was the launch of Merino’s hero product range, Merino Marine Board, in two new variants, Marine Board FR+ and Marine Board Plus. The company also showcased the first look of its upcoming Merino Prakriti range – Stories of Nature, offering visitors an exclusive preview ahead of its formal launch.\r\nThe display formed an important part of Merino’s participation at MATECIA 2026, where the company brought together surface innovation, engineered board technology, exterior wall cladding, flooring, MR+ Feather Touch Matt finish, and restroom solutions. The two Chipboard launches addressed different performance requirements. Merino Marine Board FR+ introduces fire-retardant boards designed to comply with European standards, offering enhanced safety and peace of mind alongside lower emissions. Merino Marine Board Plus offers a complete one-panel solution, combining an HMR core with an enhanced 18 mm surface layer, eliminating the need for multiple products while delivering higher durability, improved screw-holding capability, and a refined aesthetic finish.\r\nPrakriti, presented under the thought “Discover the poetry of nature,” draws inspiration from flora, fauna, wildlife, trees, jungles, and flowers. The range brings together two distinct design directions, one inspired by high-end international designer aesthetics and another drawing from high-end Indian art and the design language of Indian labels. Every design begins with hand-drawn and hand-painted artwork, making the collection distinctive and one of a kind. Available in feather touch and linen texture, the 8 ft x 4 ft, 1 mm range brings together Indian artistry and Western contemporary design philosophy. Cultural references such as Punjab’s Phulkari embroidery further strengthen its Indian design vocabulary. Its durability also positions Prakriti as a potential alternative to wallpapers in hospitality spaces that experience continuous wear and tear.\r\nWith Prakriti, Merino takes this relationship further by turning the visual richness of nature into a surface language suited to contemporary interiors. The range’s hand-drawn and hand-painted origins, Indian cultural references, and contemporary design influences give architects and designers a material vocabulary rooted in authenticity. Its potential use across hospitality also opens an interesting alternative to conventional wallpaper in spaces where continuous wear demands greater surface resilience.\r\nSpeaking about Merino’s participation at MATECIA, Mr. Manoj Lohia, Director, Merino Industries Ltd., said, “MATECIA gives us an opportunity to engage with a design community that understands both the creative and technical dimensions of materials. This year, we wanted our showcase to represent the breadth of Merino’s thinking, from advanced boards inspired by international certified standards for safety and performance to laminates inspired by nature. Prakriti is particularly close to our design philosophy because it brings together the authenticity of hand-created Indian art with contemporary global design. It is a range built around detail, originality, and a deep appreciation for the craft behind every surface.”\r\nAnother highlight was Merino Senses Art by Nature, a pre-laminated board range that translates visual cues from natural wood and other elements of nature into expressive surfaces. Alongside it showcased a mar-resistant Feather Touch surface designed for interiors where tactile appeal and everyday performance need to work together.\r\nThe company also presented Merino Armour HPL Facades under the proposition “Color Meets Endurance.” The exterior cladding solution is engineered for demanding outdoor conditions, with resistance against weather, UV exposure, climatic shocks, corrosion, graffiti, termites, fungal attack, and moisture. Its performance profile also includes impact and abrasion resistance, while special editions are available in flame-retardant grades for applications where fire performance carries added importance.\r\nMerino’s flooring showcase extended across its Nature Line LVT, wooden flooring, engineered flooring, and woven solutions. The LVT range is available in 3 mm gluedown and 5 mm interlocking formats, with both featuring a 0.5 mm wear layer for durability. Wooden flooring is available in multiple grades and 8 mm and 12 mm thickness options, while engineered flooring includes 14 mm variants. These solutions address applications where frequent footfall and everyday wear demand dependable flooring performance, including hospitality environments.\r\nThe Merino Restroom range, a pioneering product in its segment, was also showcased as a specialized solution designed for high-performance restroom environments. The product has been used across prominent infrastructure projects, including Indian airports and the FIFA World Cup 2025. Together, the products demonstrated Merino’s approach to developing materials across diverse interior and architectural requirements, from furniture and surfaces to high-traffic flooring, exterior facades, and specialized spaces.\r\nThe four-day MATECIA showcase gave architects, interior designers, furniture professionals, and other industry stakeholders an opportunity to experience the seven showcased product and solution categories and engage with Merino’s teams around their applications, design possibilities, and performance characteristics.\r\nAbout Merino Industries Ltd.\r\nMerino is a versatile manufacturer and marketer of Interiors Solutions with a wide collection of products for homes, offices, commercial and public areas.

The restructured curriculum applies to all programs starting August 2026.\r\nThe changes are driven by notable shifts in technology hiring in India. The Naukri JobSpeak Index for July 2026 shows a 33% year-on-year increase in AI and ML job roles, making it the fastest-growing segment in the market. Additionally, Live Data Technologies reports 1165% YoY growth in FDE job roles in 2026. According to a Deloitte-NASSCOM study, India’s demand for AI talent is forecast to almost double, rising from 650,000 to over 1.25 million between 2022 and 2027, as the AI market expands at 25–35% annually, outpacing skilled labour growth.\r\nWhat changed between 2023 and 2026\r\nThe main changes from 2023 to 2026 can be illustrated by comparing what an AI or Data Science curriculum included three years ago with what modern enterprises currently incorporate.\r\n“Since 2026, our perspective has evolved. We now see the model not as the final solution but as part of a broader, integrated system.”, says Abhishek Gupta, CBO. This system includes a data retrieval setup utilizing proprietary data, an orchestration layer that intelligently chooses the right tool or model for each task, an evaluation layer that quickly identifies regressions, resilient monitoring that withstands user interactions, and a governance process that ensures approval and compliance with standards.\r\nThese are indeed engineering and operational challenges, highlighting the valuable skills that hiring managers truly seek. As a result, even a highly talented machine learning candidate might still find it challenging to land an AI position, since interviews tend to emphasize system understanding.\r\nThe expectation now extends beyond data science teams.\r\nThis issue is not limited to a single job role.\r\nSoftware engineers integrate AI, balancing latency, cost, and fallback. Cloud and platform engineers support inference and deployment, which have different scale needs than traditional services. QA tests probabilistic systems, often invalidating test designs. Analysts and ops professionals assess automation boundaries.\r\nOverall, it’s inspiring to see professionals from diverse career backgrounds embrace new roles that now require AI skills, even if those skills weren’t part of their original job descriptions. Many are making these transitions mid-career, often with a spontaneous or flexible spirit that reflects their adaptability and openness to growth.\r\nAn overview of the curriculum restructuring process.\r\nLearnbay offers dedicated Generative AI and Agentic AI programs, now expanded to meet evolving industry needs.\r\nThe updated curriculum preserves core topics, including Python, SQL, Machine Learning, Deep Learning, Natural Language Processing, and Cloud. Learnbay considers these technologies relevant and essential throughout the program. Debugging a retrieval pipeline that produces incorrect results is primarily a data issue, not a model issue, and professionals without these fundamentals often remain at the tool-operating level.\r\nBuilding on the foundation, learners advance into enterprise AI engineering.\r\n\r\nGenerative AI application development\r\nRetrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG), including production retrieval design\r\nAI agent development and multi-agent coordination\r\nLarge Language Model orchestration\r\nEvaluation and testing frameworks for non-deterministic systems\r\nModel Context Protocol (MCP) and agent interoperability\r\nLLMOps, deployment and monitoring\r\nAI governance and responsible AI\r\n\r\nThe practical elements of the new curriculum pose challenges with LangChain, LangGraph, Crew AI, and the Hugging Face ecosystem. It also includes 40 hours of focused Agentic AI training across four terms and more than 30 applied projects based on business scenarios.\r\n“Ravi Pradhan, COO at Learnbay, explained, “Most professionals do not need another stand-alone generative AI course. Instead, they gain more value by understanding how the model works within their system, who reviews its output, and how to respond if issues arise. Our programs are designed to meet this need, seamlessly integrating AI rather than treating it as an afterthought.”\r\nNew AI Co-Lab: Focus on Live Problems Instead of Posited Exercises\r\nAI Co-Lab significantly enhances the curriculum by offering learners the opportunity to tackle real-world, live problem statements from startups, rather than just practicing with pre-designed classroom exercises. Additionally, learners can bring in current problems from their own work.\r\nFrom an external perspective, it might seem like a small difference, but it’s actually quite meaningful. Pre-designed exercises come with a clean dataset, a clearly defined problem, and a known correct answer, making them straightforward. By contrast, live problems are more complex-they can involve ambiguity, unclear scope, unresearched work-related data, and a client whose goals and needs only become apparent through effort. During mid-career interviews, the focus often shifts to constraints and trade-offs in design choices, whereas classroom projects tend to emphasize the design process itself.\r\nIn addition, those who complete the track receive dual certification.\r\nExtending the approach into software engineering\r\nLearnbay has also offered similar opportunities for professionals in both the software development and analytics tracks, making it easier for everyone to find a suitable path.\r\nLearners with backgrounds in software engineering are now being taught how to combine application development with AI and customer-centric solutions to tackle challenges – a skill set closely aligned with the emerging Forward Deployed Engineer (FDE) role. Many organizations focus on performance metrics connected to their AI investments. Yet, models usually have limited impact on these metrics. The main influences are the customer’s data, workflow, and risk appetite, which all need to be integrated into the system, which is precisely where FDEs operate: embedded with the client, translating messy real-world constraints into working AI solutions.\r\nThere is strong demand for this hybrid profile across consulting, product development, and the Global Capability Centers (GCCs), which together account for a large share of enterprise technology jobs in India.\r\nHow the syllabus is determined\r\nLearnbay attributes the rapid course update to an ongoing review process rather than a comprehensive overhaul.\r\nThe curriculum is thoughtfully developed through ongoing conversations with engineers and hiring partners, informed by the challenges they encounter in interviews and during onboarding. Rather than simply gathering content, it evolves by discarding outdated material that doesn’t align with current hiring practices, ensuring the core technical skills remain relevant as new content is added.\r\n“Abhishek Gupta, Co-Founder and Chief Business Officer at Learnbay, shared that hiring partners often provide feedback on what candidates struggled with in the last interview. This valuable input is then integrated into the syllabus, helping to keep the course content relevant. While this feedback isn’t as formal as a market report, he pointed out that it’s more current and detailed enough to serve as practical guidance.”\r\nIn addition, participants’ career success depends on several factors, including prior experience, performance during the program, current market conditions, and interview preparation. The curriculum is thoughtfully designed to support interview preparation and build practical skills. Before enrolling in any program, it’s helpful for prospective participants to review the curriculum, faculty, and projects to ensure the program aligns with their goals.\r\nAn accelerated revision of the curriculum across the sector\r\nLearnbay’s revised curriculum aligns with a widespread industry trend, where education providers are now updating their curricula more often and on shorter timelines, demonstrating a flexible and responsive approach.\r\nWhen assessing programs, working professionals typically pay less attention to course variety, as these are often quite similar across providers. Rather, they focus on the curriculum’s depth and how effectively learners are supported in engaging with meaningful, high-quality professional tasks. They also evaluate whether assessment and governance are thoroughly addressed or only lightly touched upon, and whether the fundamental technical principles remain robust despite incorporating new material.\r\nThe changes are evident in Learnbay’s Generative AI and Agentic AI Master’s Program. Learnbay provides programs in collaboration with IBM, Microsoft, and IIT Patna, maintains an academic partnership with Woolf University, and is a member of NASSCOM. Ongoing interactions with engineers inform curriculum revisions based on the needs of hiring partners.\r\nAbout Learnbay\r\nLearnbay is an esteemed professional upskilling institution headquartered in India, specializing in disciplines such as Data Science, Artificial Intelligence, Generative AI, Agentic AI, Forward Deployed Engineer, and Cloud Computing. Established in 2015 by Learnvista Pvt. Ltd., the organization offers both online and hybrid programs tailored for professionals and individuals transitioning careers.\r\n\r\nIf you object to the content of this press release, please notify us at pr.error.rectification@gmail.com.

The stock has traded between a 52-week high of ₹5.50 and a 52-week low of ₹1.74.\r\nBased on the company’s recently expanded paid-up capital and the prevailing share price, Davangere Sugar falls in the small-cap segment, with its market capitalisation estimated at around ₹300–₹320 crore.\r\nThe Karnataka-based company operates an integrated business model spanning sugar manufacturing, ethanol production and co-generation of power. Its recent corporate developments have brought increased investor attention to its expansion plans, capital raising and efforts to build an international business platform.\r\nDavangere Sugar reported revenue of ₹238.8 crore for FY26, representing an increase of 11.1% year-on-year. EBITDA stood at ₹50.7 crore, translating into an EBITDA margin of approximately 21.2%.\r\nThe company’s distillery business emerged as the largest contributor to revenue during the year, generating ₹133.5 crore. The sugar segment contributed ₹98.9 crore, while co-generation contributed ₹7.1 crore.\r\nThe increasing contribution from the distillery business highlights the company’s strategy of diversifying beyond traditional sugar manufacturing and increasing its exposure to ethanol and value-added products.\r\nThe company reported revenue of ₹34.7 crore during the first quarter of FY27, marking a 44.2% year-on-year increase.\r\nThe distillery segment also remained an important contributor, with segment PBIT reported at ₹15.8 crore. The performance comes as the company continues to scale its ethanol production capabilities and utilise multiple feedstocks.\r\nOne of the company’s significant recent corporate developments has been its $100 million Foreign Currency Convertible Bonds (FCCBs) issue.\r\nThe issue comprises 1,000 unsecured FCCBs with a face value of $100,000 each. The bonds carry a 2% coupon and have a five-year tenor, with a conversion price of ₹3.60 per equity share.\r\nThe FCCBs were listed on the Afrinex Exchange in Mauritius in July 2026. According to the company’s disclosures, the first tranche of the issue was converted on August 25, resulting in the issuance of approximately 26.59 crore new equity shares. Following the conversion, the company’s paid-up capital increased to around ₹169.59 crore.\r\nThe proceeds are expected to provide the company with long-term capital for its expansion initiatives.\r\nDavangere Sugar has also approved the deployment of approximately $84.95 million into its wholly owned UK subsidiary, Aurevant Global Ltd.\r\nThe proposed deployment, funded through the FCCB proceeds, is intended to support opportunities in the global sugar and ethanol markets, including potential mergers and acquisitions.\r\nThe move represents a strategic expansion beyond the company’s established Karnataka-based operating footprint and could provide access to international business opportunities in the sugar and ethanol value chain.\r\nAnother development being tracked by investors is the proposed conversion of unsecured promoter loans into convertible warrants.\r\nThe promoters are set to convert loans worth approximately ₹40.12 crore into 10.64 crore convertible warrants at an issue price of ₹3.77 per warrant.\r\nIf fully converted, the transaction is expected to increase promoter shareholding from approximately 41.63% to 45.67%.\r\nThe proposed conversion could also reduce the company’s outstanding unsecured loan obligations while increasing promoter participation in the company’s equity capital.\r\nDavangere Sugar currently operates a sugarcane crushing capacity of around 4,750 tonnes crushed per day (TCD), along with 24 MW of co-generation capacity.\r\nIts distillery has a multi-feed capacity of 65 KLPD, with plans to scale this to 110 KLPD. The facility can utilise feedstocks including molasses, cane juice and grain.\r\nThe company also has a Zero Liquid Discharge system and a carbon dioxide recovery plant as part of its operating infrastructure.\r\nThe expansion of distillery capacity is particularly relevant as ethanol continues to become an increasingly important component of India’s sugar industry.","articleSection":"Business","datePublished":"2026-09-10T14:01:23+0530","dateModified":"2026-09-10T15:43:24+0530","inLanguage":"en-us","author":{"@type":"Person","name":"PNN","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com/user/pnnindia"},"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Marudhara Bharti English","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com/uploads/logo/logo_6ab9270c36c334-01124948.png"}},"image":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://pnndigital.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/09/PNN-2026-09-10T124011.782.jpg","contentUrl":"https://pnndigital.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/09/PNN-2026-09-10T124011.782.jpg"},"keywords":["Davangere Sugar","Investors Track Ethanol","FCCB Funding","UK Foray"]}</script>

Project 50 marks the beginning of the next phase of Jaipur Kurti’s growth journey, combining retail expansion with investments in technology, AI-led business intelligence, product development, inventory productivity with operational capabilities.\r\nThe initiative is designed not only to expand the Company’s physical retail footprint, but also to create a stronger and more integrated omnichannel platform across Retail, D2C, Marketplaces and Social Commerce, with a clear focus on top-line growth, customer reach, operational efficiency and sustainable bottom-line improvement.\r\nProject 50-Scaling the Next Phase of Jaipur Kurti\r\nUnder Project 50, Jaipur Kurti plans to add 32 net new stores to its existing network, with the expansion planned in phases and a targeted opening pace of approximately 4–6 stores per month.\r\nThe objective is to build a larger and more productive retail network, while integrating stores, D2C and marketplace channels into one coordinated growth engine.\r\nRetail | D2C | Marketplaces | Social\r\nThe objective is simple: one customer, one brand, multiple channels.\r\nProject 50 will focus on five key growth levers:\r\n01 | EXPAND\r\nIncrease the retail footprint and customer reach.\r\n02 | PRODUCT\r\nStrengthen design, merchandise and newness with sharper demand-led planning.\r\n03 | AI, DATA &amp;amp; ANALYTICS\r\nDeploy technology, AI and advanced analytics across demand forecasting, assortment planning, inventory allocation, customer behavior, pricing, replenishment and store productivity.\r\n03 | INVENTORY\r\nImprove allocation, availability and inventory rotation across channels.\r\n04 | SCALE\r\nBuild production, sourcing, people and supply-chain capacity ahead of growth.\r\n05 | PROFITABLE GROWTH &amp;amp; DISCIPLINE\r\nLink expansion with store-level economics, productivity, working-capital planning, cash-flow management and disciplined capital allocation.\r\nBuilding the Engine Behind the Stores\r\nAs the retail network scales, Jaipur Kurti will strengthen the operating infrastructure behind it — from production and sourcing to warehouse, technology, merchandise allocation and store operations.\r\nA centralised inventory approach will allow the Company to manage stores, D2C and marketplaces as one commercial ecosystem, rather than as independent channels.\r\nThe Company will evaluate expansion not only through store additions, but through parameters such as store productivity, like-for-like growth, inventory efficiency, sell-through, customer acquisition and retention, working-capital efficiency and overall financial discipline.\r\nThe Company’s stated objective is to establish a profitable and repeatable expansion model rather than pursue growth purely for footprint.\r\nCommenting on the same, Mr. Anuj Mundhra, Chairman &amp;amp; Managing Director of Nandani Creation Limited, said: “Project 50 is a defining step in Jaipur Kurti’s growth journey. We are not simply aiming to add stores; we are building the operating engine required to scale the brand.\r\nOur focus is to bring retail, D2C and marketplaces together, improve product and inventory productivity, and build the capabilities required for sustainable expansion. As we grow from 18 to 50 stores, disciplined execution and financial control will remain as important as growth itself.\r\nAs we move from 18 to 50 stores, our objective is to grow the top line while simultaneously building stronger operating leverage and improving the bottom line while customer focus and financial control will remain as important as growth itself.\r\nWe are building this business for the long term. Project 50 is not just a store-count milestone; it is the next phase of building Jaipur Kurti as a scalable, technology-enabled and financially disciplined national fashion brand.”\r\nWhat Success Looks Like\r\nBy March 31, 2027, Jaipur Kurti aims to establish a 50-store retail network supported by an integrated, technology-enabled omnichannel operating model.\r\nSuccess will be measured not only by the number of stores added, but by the Company’s ability to build a more productive retail network, increase customer reach, improve inventory efficiency, strengthen like-for-like performance, enhance operating efficiency and maintain financial discipline.\r\nThe Company will measure success not only through store additions, but through customer reach, store productivity, like-for-like growth, inventory efficiency, technology and AI adoption, operating leverage and financial discipline.\r\nCurrent Brand’s Presence\r\nBesides this partnership, company currently operates 8 COCO retail stores (3 in Jaipur, 1 in Ahmedabad, 1 in Kota, 1 in Shri Ganganagar, 1 in Lucknow &amp;amp; 1 in Ghaziabad) and 8 FOFO retail stores (3 in Delhi, 2 in Gurugram, 1 in Mumbai, 1 in Ajmer, 1 in Ludhiana), 30+ Shoppers Stop Stores, 70+ SIS Store, 80+ Reliance Trends Store, 25+ Avantara &amp;amp; Kalanikethan Stores, 20+Reliance Centro Stores, 25+ Fashion factory stores and many more.

The company is also available in Quick Commerce with Swiggy InstaMart ensuing rapid delivery and increasing accessibility.\r\nAbout Nandani Creation Ltd.\r\nNandani Creation, founded in 2012, is Jaipur based online-first fashion player offering women’s Indian wear products under the brands “Jaipur Kurti”, “Amaiva- By Jaipur Kurti”, “Jaipur Kurti Luxe” &amp;amp; “Desi Fusion”. The company has its Head Office in Jaipur with sales channels comprising of online platforms and offline stores.","articleSection":"Business","datePublished":"2026-09-10T14:01:23+0530","dateModified":"2026-09-10T15:43:59+0530","inLanguage":"en-us","author":{"@type":"Person","name":"PNN","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com/user/pnnindia"},"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Marudhara Bharti English","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com/uploads/logo/logo_6ab9270c36c334-01124948.png"}},"image":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://pnndigital.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/09/PNN-2026-09-10T132010.855.jpg","contentUrl":"https://pnndigital.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/09/PNN-2026-09-10T132010.855.jpg"},"keywords":["Project 50","Jaipur Kurti"]}</script>

Distributors on IFANOW can now offer their clients global funds and US stock baskets,  from the same platform they use for every other product. IFANOW is used by more than 2,000 distributors, who track over ₹1 lakh crore of client assets on it.\r\nThe partnership brings Global Funds and US Stock Baskets to IFANOW’s platform at launch. The integration is built using Appreciate’s technology infrastructure and SDK/API capabilities, allowing global investing functionality to be embedded within the existing IFANOW experience rather than requiring advisors to move between multiple platforms.\r\nFor distributors, the partnership expands the range of investment solutions they can offer their clients while allowing them to continue using the technology environment they already rely on for day-to-day wealth-management workflows. IFANOW’s platform brings together client management, portfolio tracking, transactions, reporting, research and financial planning, while Appreciate provides the underlying infrastructure required to facilitate access to global investment products as well as its Assisted Portal to enable distributors to offer advisory services.\r\nBringing global investing into the advisor workflow\r\nThrough the integration, IFANOW users can access global investment products through an assisted as well as a DIY option. Advisors can guide clients through the investment process, while the technology-enabled workflow supports onboarding, KYC, remittance and investment execution.\r\nThe partnership is particularly significant as advisors increasingly look to offer clients exposure beyond traditional domestic asset classes. IFANOW’s multi-asset wealth-management environment combined with Appreciate’s global investing infrastructure creates a pathway for advisors to incorporate international opportunities into their existing client workflows.\r\nAt launch, eligible customers can access Global Funds with a minimum investment of USD 100 as well as US Stock Baskets..\r\nThe integration is powered by Appreciate’s infrastructure across fund execution, payments, distribution, advisory and exchange connectivity, with APIs and SDK capabilities enabling a technology-led experience within IFANOW.\r\nKey highlights of the partnership\r\n\r\nGlobal investment access within IFANOW – Advisors can offer Global Funds without requiring clients to adopt an entirely separate wealth-management workflow.\r\nUS Stock Baskets – The partnership will enable advisors to offer curated exposure to US equities through basket-based investing.\r\nSDK-led integration – Appreciate’s embedded technology into the partner ecosystem, enabling a seamless user experience.\r\nAssisted and DIY journeys – Advisors can support clients through the investment process while enabling technology-led self-service.\r\nEnd-to-end infrastructure – Appreciate provides underlying capabilities across execution, payments, distribution, advisory and exchange connectivity.\r\nGIFT City IFSC and FEMA Compliant LRS routes  – Global investments are facilitated through the regulated GIFT City IFSC and FEMA LRS routes.\r\nMulti-bank remittance support – Customers can use supported banking channels for funding global investments.\r\n\r\nThe partnership also reflects a broader shift in wealth management technology – from standalone product platforms towards integrated ecosystems where advisors can discover, recommend, transact and monitor a wider range of investments from within their existing technology stack.\r\nRonak Hindocha, Founder &amp;amp; CEO, IFANOW, said:\r\n“Distribution in India has always been organized around a product. The client never was. A family owns funds, insurance, deposits and, increasingly, a piece of the world outside India, and they want one person who sees all of it together. That is the platform we are building: a place where manufacturers of every kind plug in, and the advisor can put the whole picture in front of a client.\r\nInvestors today want a share of the AI and technology growth happening outside India, with the added benefit of dollar exposure. Appreciate has done the hard work of making that safe and simple, and regulatorily compliant. With them on IFANOW, our advisors can bring international opportunities into the same conversation, the same plan and the same report as everything else their client owns.”\r\nSubho Moulik, Founder &amp;amp; CEO, Appreciate, said:\r\n“The next wave of global investing will be driven not only by direct-to-consumer platforms, but by financial advisors and wealth platforms that already have trusted relationships with investors. Our partnership with IFANOW brings Appreciate’s global investing infrastructure directly into that ecosystem. By combining IFANOW’s advisor technology with our SDK and investment infrastructure, we can make global products easier for advisors to discover, recommend and deliver to their clients.”\r\nThe partnership reinforces the two companies’ shared focus on using technology to broaden investment choice while making the experience simpler for financial advisors and their clients.\r\nIf you object to the content of this press release, please notify us at pr.error.rectification@gmail.com.

Dinner that could mean Indian regional flavours, sushi, Italian favourites, or a relaxed meal overlooking the sea. Then a show, drinks, music, gaming, or simply another hour under the stars, all before waking up the next morning to an entirely new view. This is what a holiday onboard Cordelia Sky could look like when the ship begins sailing from Mumbai this October.\r\nAs the newest addition to the Cordelia Cruises fleet, Sky brings together sport, wellness, dining, entertainment, social spaces, and open-air experiences, giving travellers the freedom to shape their time at sea around how they want to holiday.\r\nAt 258 metres long and 77,104 gross tonnes, Sky can accommodate 2,004 guests at double occupancy across 1,002 staterooms. The ship features 10 dining venues, a 930-seat Marquee Theatre, two pools, five hot tubs, and more than 30,000 sq. ft. of open deck space, alongside 11 bars and lounges, a fitness centre, spa, and dedicated spaces for children and teenagers.\r\nA Holiday That Changes with the Day\r\nThere is no single way to experience a holiday onboard Cordelia Sky. Guests looking for activity can head outdoors for pickleball and cricket at sea, work out with ocean views at the fitness centre, or spend time in the gaming and activity spaces onboard. For slower days, there are swimming pools, hot tubs, and expansive open decks for spending time outdoors. The spa adds treatments, steam, sauna, and salon services for guests who would rather switch off completely. Families will have their own ways to experience the ship too, with supervised activities for younger guests and a dedicated social space for teenagers. The result is a holiday where different generations and different kinds of travellers can spend the day differently and still experience it together.\r\nDining and entertainment will be a significant part of the Cordelia Sky experience. Across its dining venues, guests will have a wide choice spanning regional Indian flavours, international favourites, buffet dining, and poolside options, with pure vegetarian and Jain meals available across venues. Bars and lounges will range from relaxed spaces for cocktails and conversation to venues built around music, panoramic views, and late-night energy.

The expansion includes residential, commercial and mixed-use developments, fortifying the company’s strategic growth trajectory and long-term vision. Collectively,the upcoming developments comprise around 1,035+ units and the total construction area of approximately 12.67 lakh sq. ft.\r\nThe projects being taken up include developments in Andheri (West), Borivali (West), Santacruz (East) and Thane (West). Collectively, the projects will expand Mayfair Housing’s offering across several of the city’s most sought-after residential and commercial destinations while strengthening its presence in high-growth urban corridors.\r\nMayfair’s portfolio will cater to multiple segments of the real estate market, spanning premium and luxury residential developments, mixed-use projects, retail destinations and commercial spaces. By offering a diverse product mix, the company aims to address evolving customer preferences and demand across metropolitan markets, while creating developments that combine quality design, functionality and long-term value.\r\nPlanned for phased launches over the next two to three months, subject to requisite approvals, each development is being conceived with a strong focus on the evolving needs of modern residents and occupiers. The projects will be supported by thoughtfully curated amenities, open spaces and community-centric environments, delivering a well-rounded experience across residential, commercial and mixed-use asset classes.\r\nThe company believes the long-term attractiveness of these locations will be further enhanced by significant infrastructure developments underway across MMR.

The classification looks beyond the conventional Kellgren-Lawrence radiographic system and places greater emphasis on biological factors in assessing osteoarthritis.\r\n“REGEN 2026 is about moving regenerative orthopaedics from promise to evidence-based practice. The development of these BMAC Consensus Guidelines through collaboration among experts from India, Europe, South America and the USA marks an important step towards greater clinical consistency and informed decision-making,” said Dr Tulpule.\r\nThe first day of the conference brought together international experts including Prof Nicola Maffulli, Dr Fabio Sciarretta, Dr Nathan Katz, Dr Don Buford and Dr Massimo Piracci, along with leading Indian specialists.\r\nScientific sessions during the day focused on PRP, BMAC, MFAT and other orthobiologics, with discussions around clinical evidence, patient selection, treatment protocols and emerging regenerative technologies.\r\nDr Madhan Jeyaraman, Founder Director, Agathisha Institute of Stem Cell and Regenerative Therapy, Chennai, said the international collaboration behind the BMAC guidelines was significant for the field.\r\n“The guidelines bring together expertise from India, Europe and the USA to create a common, evidence-led framework for BMAC practice. Such consensus can help improve consistency in clinical decision-making and the application of BMAC,” he said.\r\nThe conference also featured the ABRM (American Board of Regenerative Medicine) Convocation Ceremony, where Indian practitioners were conferred Diplomate status.\r\nNiteen Tulpule, Treasurer, REGEN 2026, said the second edition builds on the inaugural conference held in 2025.\r\n“Bringing together experts from across geographies allows us to combine global evidence with Indian clinical experience. The BMAC Consensus Guidelines are an important outcome of this collaboration and can contribute towards more consistent, evidence-based regenerative orthopaedic practice,” he said.\r\nREGEN 2026 is organised by Suryodaya Foundation in association with Advanced Regenerative Medicine Foundation (ARMF), Navi Mumbai Orthopedic Association (NMOA) and Maharashtra Orthopedic Association (MoA), with Orthobiologix Clinic as the Knowledge Partner.\r\nIf you object to the content of this press release, please notify us at pr.error.rectification@gmail.com.

The film explores accessibility across two broad dimensions — physical accessibility, including mobility, vision and hearing-related needs, and cognitive and sensory accessibility, including experiences associated with autism, intellectual disabilities, dementia, sensory processing differences and mental health conditions.\r\nAccording to the 2011 Census, India has 26.8 million persons with disabilities, accounting for 2.21% of the country’s population. While accessibility has gained greater attention through policy, regulations and developments in architecture and urban planning, much of the conversation continues to centre on physical interventions such as ramps, elevators and accessible infrastructure. The Shape of Belonging sought to expand this dialogue by exploring what lies beyond ramps and lifts — including sensory stimulation, navigation, spatial design and cognitive comfort — and how these factors shape the way individuals experience and engage with their surroundings.\r\nThe screening was followed by a panel discussion featuring Ms. Anshu Sharma, Vice Principal – International Curriculum, Shiv Nadar School, Noida; Dr. Deepa Malik, Padma Shri, Khel Ratna and Arjuna Awardee, Paralympic medallist and author; Dr. Sewa Ram, Dean (Research), School of Planning and Architecture, Delhi; Ms. Merry Barua, Founder Director, Action for Autism; and Mr. Mohit Ahuja, Founder, Know Disability. The discussion brought together perspectives from architecture, education and disability advocacy, reflecting on the themes raised in the film and the broader opportunity to bring greater attention to cognitive and sensory inclusion in the design of homes, public spaces, institutions and urban environments.\r\nDr. Deepa Malik, Paralympic medallist, Padma Shri, Khel Ratna and Arjuna Awardeesaid, “Accessibility conversations in India have largely focused on ramps and infrastructure, but true inclusion goes far beyond that. Films like The Shape of Belonging push us to think about dignity and independence as design principles, not afterthoughts. It’s heartening to see a young student engage with this issue so thoughtfully.”\r\nMs. Merry Barua, Founder Director, Action for Autism said, “For individuals with autism and sensory processing differences, the built environment can either be a source of comfort or a daily challenge. This documentary brings much-needed visibility to cognitive and sensory accessibility — a dimension of inclusion that is too often overlooked in mainstream design conversations.”\r\nPriyansh Sinha, the documentary film maker, said, “Accessibility should be integral to how we imagine and design the spaces around us. The Shape of Belonging brings an important perspective to this conversation by looking beyond physical accessibility and drawing attention to the need for greater cognitive and sensory inclusion. I am grateful &amp;amp; encouraged to get such large participation from academicians to architects to disability rights champions for this cause.”\r\nThe event, held from 3 PM to 5 PM followed by high tea, drew faculty and students from the School of Planning and Architecture, Delhi and Shiv Nadar School, alongside architects, urban planners, psychologists, accessibility professionals, organisations working with persons with disabilities, and members of the media.\r\nWith The Shape of Belonging, Priyansh Sinha hopes to encourage a broader understanding of accessibility — one that considers not only whether people can enter and navigate a space, but also whether they can experience it with comfort, dignity, independence and a genuine sense of belonging. The premiere marks the film’s public launch, with plans for wider screenings and outreach to follow.\r\nIf you object to the content of this press release, please notify us at pr.error.rectification@gmail.com.

From breakfast and lunchboxes to snacks and everyday meals, it is a familiar staple on the family table. Recognising the opportunity to rethink an everyday category through a better ingredient approach, Gladful has launched its new Tomato Ketchup, made with 33% real tomatoes and Kachi Khand instead of refined sugar, the new ketchup brings together the taste kids love with an ingredient approach parents can feel better about.\r\nMade with 33% tomato paste, Gladful Tomato Ketchup is sweetened with Kachi Khand instead of refined sugar and contains no preservatives, added colours or added flavours. The result is a thick, rich and tomato-forward ketchup designed to retain the familiar tangy-sweet taste children enjoy.\r\nAt the heart of the launch is a simple consumer tension: children want the taste they know and love, while parents are increasingly paying attention to what goes into everyday foods. Gladful’s approach is to improve an existing staple without asking families to compromise on taste or convenience.\r\n“The idea behind our ketchup is simple. We don’t want children to feel like they are compromising on taste, and we don’t want parents to compromise on the ingredients they choose for their families. Ketchup is already a part of everyday eating, so we wanted to rethink it with an ingredient approach parents can feel better about,” said Parul Sharma, Co-Founder &amp;amp; CEO, Gladful.\r\nThe launch also marks an important step in Gladful’s evolution towards becoming a broader kids’ breakfast and tiffin brand.

Within two months of launch, Arrowhead’s AI voice agents began handling 40% of all inbound customer support calls received through Kissht’s Ring app.\r\nThe deployment currently covers loan application rejection queries and requests related to mandate or No Objection Certificate cancellations. Approximately 88% of these calls are resolved without human intervention.\r\n“Within the first two months, the bot was handling 40% of our entire inbound volume,” said Suraj Shetty, Head of Customer Experience, Learning and Development at Kissht (Ring). “Of those calls, around 88% are getting handled without needing a human at all.”\r\nUnlike many voice AI deployments that begin with outbound sales or engagement use cases, Arrowhead and Kissht introduced the technology directly into inbound customer support. The initial deployment focused on queries that can involve customer frustration, sensitive financial information and regulatory considerations.\r\nA Focused Deployment With Defined Guardrails\r\nThe AI agents were initially trained to handle two specific categories of calls: queries concerning rejected loan applications and requests involving mandate or NOC cancellations.\r\nThe scope of the deployment was kept deliberately focused. The AI agent operates only within these predefined call categories. If a customer refers to the Reserve Bank of India during a conversation, the call is immediately transferred to a human specialist without the AI attempting to respond further.\r\nArrowhead’s technology has also been integrated with Kissht’s dialler and customer relationship management system. This allows relevant customer information and application status to be retrieved before the call is connected. As a result, customers are not required to repeatedly verify basic information or explain the same issue after a transfer.\r\nOne of the principal technical challenges during development was reducing the delay between conversational turns.\r\n“When we started, latency was around one second. We built our own small language model and brought that down to around 500 milliseconds, which is among the lowest in the industry,” said Devyani Gupta, Founder of Arrowhead.\r\nReducing this delay was particularly important for creating a more natural interaction during sensitive customer conversations. Faster response times help reduce interruptions, awkward pauses and the impression that the customer is interacting with a conventional automated system.\r\nApproximately 30% Lower Average Handle Time\r\nAccording to operational data from Kissht, the AI voice agents are completing calls approximately 30% faster than human specialists handling comparable queries.\r\n“The bot’s average handle time is running about 30% lower than our human agents,” said Shadab, Product and Build Owner at Kissht.\r\n“If the same cost per minute is assumed, that translates into an approximately 30% saving on every call resolved entirely by the AI agent,” Gupta added.\r\nThe reduction in average handle time is in addition to the operational benefits created by resolving approximately 88% of calls within the selected categories without human involvement.\r\nKissht has stated that the efficiency improvement has not resulted in a decline in the customer experience measured during the deployment.\r\n“That is what I would want another CX head to understand,” Shetty said. “We reduced handle time, but the customer experience held steady.”\r\nExtending Support Beyond Regular Working Hours\r\nThe deployment has also allowed Kissht to address customer calls received outside the working hours of its support specialists.\r\nApproximately 20% of the company’s inbound support volume is received between 8 PM and 8 AM. Before the introduction of the AI voice agents, many of these calls remained in the queue until the following working day.\r\n“Around 20% of our inbound volume comes between 8 PM and 8 AM. Earlier, that became a queue waiting for the next day,” Shetty said.\r\nArrowhead’s AI agents now provide round-the-clock coverage for the supported query categories. The same operational policies, escalation rules and guardrails apply to calls received during and outside regular support hours.\r\nA Collaborative Implementation Approach\r\nArrowhead and Kissht attributed the speed of the rollout to close collaboration between their respective product, customer experience, and engineering teams.\r\nThe implementation process included daily stand-up meetings from the beginning of the engagement. Arrowhead’s team also reviewed live customer conversations to understand how callers described their concerns, where conversations became difficult, and when human intervention was necessary.\r\nKissht’s implementation team worked directly with Arrowhead’s founders and engineers throughout the deployment. This allowed feedback from customer calls to be incorporated into the system without relying solely on periodic reviews or conventional support-ticket processes.\r\nThe two companies used this feedback to refine conversational flows, improve response speed, and strengthen the rules governing transfers to human specialists.\r\nEMI and Repayment Support Agent Under Development\r\nFollowing the initial deployment, Arrowhead and Kissht are developing an AI agent for EMI and repayment-related queries.\r\nThe next phase is expected to cover payment confirmations, auto-debit outcomes, duplicate deductions, late-fee status, foreclosure requests, NOC timelines, and CIBIL-related timelines.\r\nBecause these conversations involve transaction-specific information, the new agent is being developed with stricter controls. One of its core instructions is described as “money facts, absolute,” meaning the system must not independently calculate, estimate or round financial information.\r\nThe expansion represents a significant progression from handling defined service queries to managing conversations in which an inaccurate response could directly affect a customer’s understanding of a payment or financial obligation.\r\nKissht said the decision to proceed with the repayment use case followed the operational performance of the first deployment and the ability of the system to maintain customer experience while reducing handling time.\r\nDeployment Highlights\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nMetric\r\n\r\n\r\nResult\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nShare of total inbound volume handled by month two\r\n\r\n\r\n40%\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nCalls resolved without human involvement\r\n\r\n\r\nApproximately 88%\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nAverage handle time compared with human specialists\r\n\r\n\r\nApproximately 30% lower\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nEstimated savings on fully automated calls, assuming the same cost per minute\r\n\r\n\r\nApproximately 30%\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nCustomer experience\r\n\r\n\r\nHeld steady\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nConversational turn latency\r\n\r\n\r\nApproximately 500 milliseconds, reduced from around one second\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nInbound volume received between 8 PM and 8 AM\r\n\r\n\r\nApproximately 20%\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nSupport availability\r\n\r\n\r\n24/7\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nCall direction\r\n\r\n\r\n100% inbound\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nCurrent use cases\r\n\r\n\r\nLoan rejection queries and mandate or NOC cancellation requests\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nUse case under development\r\n\r\n\r\nEMI and repayment support\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nAbout Kissht\r\nKissht is an Indian digital lending platform that provides consumer credit through its Ring app. Its offerings include personal loans, business loans and loans against property, with a focus on serving India’s underserved and emerging middle-class consumers.\r\nAbout Arrowhead\r\nArrowhead develops enterprise-grade conversational AI voice agents for organisations managing customer interactions at scale.

Millions of people have this skincare routine down to a science, layering serums and creams in the right order, at the right time, every day. And yet, for more and more consumers, the results have begun to plateau. No matter how disciplined the routine, the glow doesn’t quite come out the way it’s supposed to. This has created a quiet but significant shift in the beauty and wellness space, from topical products to what is now being called daily skin nutrition.\r\nThe Ceiling of Topical-Only Routines\r\nAnd a good skin care routine can do only so much. Serums and creams work on a surface level, hydrating, protecting, and treating visible concerns such as dullness or uneven tone. But skin health is not just skin deep. Sleep, stress, diet, internal oxidative stress- they all show up on the skin eventually, no matter how many products are lined up on the bathroom counter.\r\nThis is why many people who have a disciplined external routine do not see the glow or clarity they are seeking. The skin is showing something more profound than what is being applied to it – and nothing can replace that with layers of serums.\r\nThe Rise of Skin Nutrition\r\nThis is precisely where skin supplements have begun to enter the conversation. These products are not meant to replace a skincare routine; they are meant to support it from the inside out – nourishing skin health at the cellular level so that your external products have more to work with.\r\nSkin health is not a new concept in wellness circles, but it’s only recently starting to catch on in mainstream beauty routines. The concept is straightforward: skin is an organ, and like any organ,it responds to what the body is receiving internally, not just what is applied topically.\r\nWhy Consumers Are Making the Shift\r\nThere are a couple of reasons for this change:\r\nThe results plateaued. Those who have tried all topical products often find their results plateau and then they look inward for the next step.\r\nGrowing awareness of antioxidants. Glutathione and other ingredients known for their capacity to reduce oxidative stress and foster a more even skin tone are rapidly becoming household names far beyond the dermatology clinic.\r\nConvenience. A pill or an effervescent drink daily is easier to fit into busy schedules than a complicated multi-step regimen.\r\nA holistic mindset. Beauty and wellness are increasingly seen as the same, not separate categories.\r\nWhat to Look For in a Skin Supplement\r\nNot every product in this fast-growing category is the same. If you’re considering adding a supplement to your daily routine, it helps to check a few things: Is the active ingredient present in a clinically meaningful dose? Is it paired with ingredients that support absorption? And does the brand back its claims with real testing, rather than just marketing language?\r\nQuality and sourcing are much more important than packaging, just like it is with topical products.\r\nPairing Nutrition With Routine, Not Replacing It\r\nThe best approach is not to choose between a skin care routine and supplements — it’s both. Cleansing, sun protection, and hydration remain the core of healthy skin. Supplements are merely an extra layer of support, covering what topical products can not do alone.\r\nWhere Glutone-A Fits Into This Shift\r\nThis is where Glutone-A fits into the growing focus on daily skin nutrition. Unlike Glutone 1000, Glutone-A is a different skin glow tablet formulated with Japanese Opitac Glutathione and Alpha Lipoic Acid (ALA). The combination provides antioxidant support and is designed to support concerns such as pigmentation, dark spots, tanning, and uneven skin tone from within.\r\nGlutone A Supplements offer consumers an inside-out approach to complement their existing skincare routine. Japanese Opitac Glutathione provides antioxidant support, while Alpha Lipoic Acid (ALA) works alongside it as part of the formulation. Together, these ingredients make Glutone-A a daily skin nutrition option for consumers looking to support skin radiance and an even-looking skin tone from within.\r\nAdditionally, Glutone offers hydration-focused tablets, easy mouth-dissolving melts, and topicals like face serum and face wash — all meant to enhance, not replace, a consistent skincare routine.\r\nThe Next Step in Skincare\r\nSkincare is not going away; it is evolving. As consumers learn more about what really impacts skin health, daily nutrition is becoming as automatic as putting on sunscreen. For many, the next step in glow-boosting isn’t a new serum, but a supplement quietly working in the background, supporting the skin from the inside, while topical products continue to do their job on the outside.\r\nThe future of skincare isn’t just what you put on your face; it’s what you put in your body every single day.\r\nIf you object to the content of this press release, please notify us at pr.error.rectification@gmail.com.

Through BoroPlus FromMaa, we wanted to create a range that reflects what mothers have always stood for: care, protection and nurturing, while meeting the expectations of today’s parents for quality contemporary formulations, premium natural ingredients and trusted credentials. BoroPlus has earned the trust of Indian families over decades, and with FromMaa, we are delighted to extend that legacy to the baby-care category.” Ms. Priti A. Sureka, Director, Emami Limited\r\nBoroPlus is India’s No. 1 antiseptic cream brand, with an established consumer association with protection, moisturisation and Ayurvedic credentials. Brand research identified a strong natural fit between these master-brand codes and the core needs of baby care, particularly protect-and-heal and prevent-dryness, making baby skincare a logical extension rather than an opportunistic one.\r\nA Market Ready for a Trusted Name\r\nIndia’s baby care category is among the fastest-growing segments in personal care, with the overall market estimated at over ₹40,000 crore (Source: Mordor Intelligence, India Baby Care Products Market). BoroPlus is entering the mass and mass-prestige baby personal care segment, valued at approximately ₹4,000 crore and growing 13–15% annually (Source: Nielsen; category expert inputs). Two shifts make the timing significant: India adds roughly 2.5 crore newborns every year, and with a typical baby care user active from birth to age three, the live consumer base is close to 7.5 crore households. At the same time, today’s parents are more investigative than ever, researching ingredient lists, seeking dermatologically tested labels and cross-checking with paediatricians before they buy.\r\n“Baby care is one of the few categories where the consumer does forensic research before she buys: she reads the ingredient list, she searches for what’s not in the product, and she asks her paediatrician, her mother, relatives and her friends. That is precisely the kind of scrutiny BoroPlus has thrived on. We have spent decades earning trust in Indian skincare on the back of protection and moisturisation, and gentle, herbal/Ayurvedic, do-good products with no-nasties. With FromMaa, we have gone product by product and asked a harder question: what is the single formulation gap in this format, and can we close it measurably? That is why the range leads with credentials rather than claims.”Vikas Srivastava, AVP – Marketing, Skin Care, Emami Limited\r\nWhere a Mother’s Care Meets Modern Science\r\nBoroPlus FromMaa is built on the intersection of three pillars: care inspired by Maa, premium natural ingredients, and modern baby care formulation. Consumer research conducted ahead of launch found that mothers strongly related to what the brand internally calls the dichotomy of modern motherhood: the wish to care for a baby using time-honoured Indian ingredients and rituals, while demanding the convenience, safety validation and doctor approval expected of a contemporary product.\r\nBehind that promise sits a formulation programme grounded in the science of infant skin. A baby’s epidermis is approximately 20% thinner than an adult’s, and the stratum corneum up to 30% thinner, meaning a less robust barrier, higher absorption and lower water retention, with lipids, natural moisturising factors and acidic pH all still developing. India’s varied climate, heat and humidity add to the challenge. BoroPlus FromMaa’s seven products were engineered against this backdrop, each with a distinct functional role, and the entire range has been certified by a panel of doctors including dermatologists, paediatricians and an ophthalmologist.\r\nThe lotion and cream are built on BoroPlus’s proprietary Dermacushion Complex, a system combining glycerin and propylene glycol for hydration, lightweight emollients such as caprylic/capric triglyceride and olive oil for a non-greasy finish, and kokum butter, shea butter and protective waxes that form a breathable, cushioning barrier to reduce moisture loss. The massage oil uses a scientifically balanced hybrid of vegetable oils and highly purified mineral oil for smooth glide with minimal drag on delicate skin. The soap is formulated to a high 78% TFM (the top quality grade under Indian Standards) for a creamier lather and gentler cleanse, while the shampoo relies on a mild surfactant system of Lauryl Glucoside, Decyl Glucoside and Cocamidopropyl Betaine, clinically tested under a dermatologist, paediatrician and ophthalmologist for everyday, tear-free use. The diaper rash cream carries 6% natural rash guard (zinc oxide), shown to help inhibit inflammatory mediators and support the skin’s moisture balance, and the powder uses fine, uniform, asbestos- and BTEX-free talc for a soft, silky feel.\r\n“BoroPlus FromMaa is founded on a simple yet powerful belief that baby care should bring together the instinctive care of a mother with the rigour of modern science. Baby skin is structurally and functionally different from adult skin, with a developing barrier that requires formulations designed with greater sensitivity, precision and care. Across the range, we have carefully balanced humectants, emollients and occlusive ingredients to support hydration, nourishment and moisture retention, while ensuring a gentle sensory experience, and incorporated ingredients inspired by traditional Ayurvedic care, including Kashmiri Saffron, Mamra Almond and Milk Protein, bringing together heritage and contemporary formulation science.” Ms. Punita Kalra, CEO, Emami R&amp;amp;D\r\nA Launch Timed to a Mother’s Festival\r\nThe launch is anchored around the Janmashtami period, drawing on the festival’s cultural association with the celebration of a divine child and a mother’s affection. Communication is focused on key urban markets, supported by paediatrician and mother-creator engagement, digital video, and conversations within parenting communities.\r\nAvailability and Pricing\r\nBoroPlus FromMaa is priced at parity with leading natural mass-market players, keeping premium formulation within reach of the value tier where most of the category shops. MRPs range from ₹70 for a 75 g baby soap to ₹580 for a 500 ml baby massage oil, and larger packs across lotion, shampoo and massage oil come with pump dispensers for one-handed use during a bath or massage routine. The range is available across leading e-commerce platforms including Amazon, Flipkart, Myntra, Swiggy Instamart and FirstCry, and through select modern trade outlets.\r\nAbout BoroPlus\r\nBoroPlus is the skincare brand from Emami Limited and India’s No. 1 antiseptic cream brand, with a decades-long association with protection, moisturisation and Ayurvedic skincare. The portfolio spans antiseptic cream, body lotions, moisturising creams and, with FromMaa, baby care.\r\nAbout Emami Limited\r\nEmami Limited is one of India’s leading FMCG companies, headquartered in Kolkata, with a portfolio of household brands across personal care and healthcare.\r\nConnect Us At\r\nWebsite: https://www.boroplusfrommaa.co.in/Instagram ID: https://www.instagram.com/boroplus_frommaa/","articleSection":"Business","datePublished":"2026-09-08T19:09:20+0530","dateModified":"2026-09-08T20:01:25+0530","inLanguage":"en-us","author":{"@type":"Person","name":"PNN","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com/user/pnnindia"},"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Marudhara Bharti English","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com/uploads/logo/logo_6ab9270c36c334-01124948.png"}},"image":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://pnndigital.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/09/PNN-2026-09-08T132044.273.jpg","contentUrl":"https://pnndigital.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/09/PNN-2026-09-08T132044.273.jpg"},"keywords":["BoroPlus","India’s Baby Care Market","‘FromMaa’"]}</script>

India has an extraordinary depth of artistic talent, and we believe institutions and businesses have an important role to play in creating the conditions for that talent to flourish. We are proud to partner with Artisera in building a platform that we hope will create lasting impact for artists and the broader cultural ecosystem for years to come.”\r\nFor Artisera, the partnership enables THRESHOLD to provide artists with support that extends beyond the conventional exhibition format.\r\nVarun Backliwal, Founder and CEO of Artisera, added:\r\n“When we began thinking about THRESHOLD, we knew that for the programme to have meaningful impact, we needed partners who believed in supporting artistic practice for the long term. Brigade’s commitment to culture made them a natural partner for the programme. Their support allows us to give six artists not just a platform to exhibit, but the time, resources, mentorship and opportunities to develop their practice over an extended period.”\r\nTHRESHOLD was launched by Artisera in July 2026 in response to what the gallery identified through more than a decade of working closely with artists: the need for sustained support at a stage when an artist has already committed years to developing a practice but may still need greater access to resources, mentorship, visibility and professional networks.\r\nThe programme is open to Indian visual artists between the ages of 28 and 50 with a minimum of six years of committed artistic practice. Artists across painting, sculpture, printmaking, photography, textile, installation, digital and interdisciplinary practices are eligible to apply.\r\nSix artists will be selected through a jury-led process. Rather than working towards a prescribed brief or commission, the selected artists will be encouraged to develop their individual practices and create new bodies of work during the programme.\r\nThe resulting works will be presented through exhibitions in Bengaluru, Chennai and Hyderabad, creating opportunities for the artists to engage with collectors, curators, fellow artists and wider audiences across three cities.\r\nApplications for the inaugural edition of THRESHOLD are currently open and close on 20 September 2026.\r\nFor programme details and application guidelines, visit: www.artisera.com/pages/threshold\r\nAbout Brigade Group\r\nFounded in 1986, Brigade Group is one of India’s leading real estate developers, with a diversified portfolio spanning residential, commercial, retail, hospitality and other sectors.

The program was convened under the Karnataka Digital Economy Mission (KDEM) and the IT, BT and S&amp;amp;T Department, Government of Karnataka, as part of the state’s broader push to expand entrepreneurial opportunity beyond metro hubs and into district-level talent pools.\r\nAlgoShack’s involvement reflects the company’s growing focus on grassroots technology engagement, extending its presence beyond enterprise software quality into skill-building and innovation access for emerging talent in Karnataka’s smaller cities. As a bootstrapped company that has scaled to a 300-person team, AlgoShack has consistently positioned itself as an advocate for founders and builders who create value through discipline, innovation, and execution, a philosophy the company sees reflected in Davanagere’s next generation of women entrepreneurs.\r\n“Entrepreneurship shouldn’t be limited by geography or access to networks,” said Ananya, Women Leader at AlgoShack. “These 120 students are proof that ambition and problem-solving ability exist everywhere. Our role is simply to show up, share what we’ve learned building a company from scratch, and back that talent with real exposure. Programs like this are exactly where India’s next wave of founders will come from, and we wanted AlgoShack to be part of that starting point.”\r\nThe bootcamp featured sessions on the entrepreneurial mindset and Karnataka’s opportunity landscape for women. It is followed by structured workshops on problem validation and business model development, closing with a peer-pitch challenge and a 60-day action plan for participating teams.\r\nAlgoShack’s participation in the Davanagere bootcamp adds to its ongoing engagement with India’s innovation ecosystem, aligning with the company’s broader narrative of building global-standard technology from India, a message it has carried through its enterprise work in autonomous testing.\r\n\r\nAbout AlgoShack Technologies\r\nAlgoShack is a Bengaluru-based AI-native autonomous testing platform company, ranked 3rd globally among 742+ test automation companies by Tracxn. Its flagship product, algoQA, is an AI-augmented autonomous testing platform serving enterprises across MedTech, banking and fintech, digital commerce, and global capability centers. Bootstrapped and built on 35 years of engineering heritage, AlgoShack holds ISO 9001:2015 certification and MedTech compliance attestations under IEC 62304 and ISO 14971. The company recently expanded to Newark, Delaware, marking its entry into the US market.\r\n ","articleSection":"Business","datePublished":"2026-09-08T13:35:28+0530","dateModified":"2026-09-08T16:39:11+0530","inLanguage":"en-us","author":{"@type":"Person","name":"PNN","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com/user/pnnindia"},"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Marudhara Bharti English","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com/uploads/logo/logo_6ab9270c36c334-01124948.png"}},"image":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://pnndigital.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/09/PNN-2-14.jpg","contentUrl":"https://pnndigital.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/09/PNN-2-14.jpg"},"keywords":["AlgoShack","Women Entrepreneurship Bootcamp","Namma Davanagere","Startup Partner"]}</script>

The greater challenge and opportunity is ensuring that evidence translates into better patient outcomes, stronger health systems and policies that respond to the needs of communities.\r\nThat was the central message of the BMJ Research Forum South Asia 2026, held in New Delhi under the theme “Driving Real-World Impact from Health Research in India”. The Forum brought together researchers, clinicians, healthcare leaders, policymakers, editors, funders, and community voices to examine how India can close the gap between evidence and action.\r\nThe question running through the discussions was simple but fundamental: what changes because of the research we do?\r\nThe Forum opened with a keynote by Major General (Prof) Dr Atul Kotwal, followed by a leadership perspective from Dr B S Ajaikumar, Founder and Chairman of HealthCare Global Enterprises. Across the sessions, speakers explored what it would take to ensure that research does not end with publication, but becomes part of better decisions, better care and better health outcomes.\r\nA flagship discussion on translating research into practice, moderated by Dr Vikram Datta, brought together healthcare and research leaders including Lt Gen Dr Madhuri Kanitkar, Dr Arun Singh, Dr Pramod Garg and Dr B Unnikrishnan.\r\nDr Vikram Datta, Director Professor and Medical Superintendent, Kalawati Saran Children’s Hospital, Lady Hardinge Medical College, New Delhi, said:\r\n“For a young researcher, it is important to understand national frameworks and guidelines, but equally important to understand what happens at the point of care. The question we should be asking is not only whether we have done good research, but how that research will reach the community and the setting for which it was intended.”\r\nLt Gen Dr Madhuri Kanitkar, Former Vice-Chancellor, Maharashtra University of Health Sciences, said:\r\n“India contributes to nearly a sixth of the world’s population. Strengthening our contribution to health research could have a significant impact, not only in India but on health systems globally. We have seen what India can achieve through vaccines and generic medicines, and are now advancing in areas such as cell and gene therapy. Bringing researchers, policymakers, healthcare institutions and other stakeholders together is essential to translate research into solutions that work in the real world.”\r\nIndia’s existing health and research infrastructure provides an important foundation for this ambition. Discussions referenced government programmes and initiatives including the Ayushman Bharat Digital Mission (ABDM), Ayushman Arogya Mandirs, PM-ABHIM, the Anusandhan National Research Foundation (ANRF) and One Nation One Subscription, while emphasising the importance of connecting these developments with research that can be implemented in real-world settings.\r\nBut translating research into impact also requires asking a more fundamental question: who is the research ultimately intended to serve?\r\nA dedicated community voice panel, chaired by Dr B S Garg, brought perspectives on quality, equity and access, with particular attention to vulnerable and marginalised populations.\r\nDr Garg, Secretary, Kasturba Health Society and Director, Dr Sushila Nayar School of Public Health, said:\r\n“Health research has to respond to the priorities of the people it is meant to serve. There are significant questions around quality, equity and out-of-pocket expenditure, particularly for vulnerable and marginalised communities in peri-urban, rural and tribal areas. Bringing these concerns into health research and policy is essential if universal health coverage is to become a reality.”\r\nThe Forum also examined the changing research landscape, including AI, research integrity and global credibility. Speakers highlighted the importance of governance, transparency and rigorous evidence as new technologies reshape how research is designed, conducted and communicated. There was also a call to expand research capacity beyond leading institutions to tier 2 and 3 cities and strengthen collaboration across sectors and geographies.\r\nThe Forum discussions highlighted a number of priorities for India’s health research system, including a greater focus on patient outcomes, stronger implementation research, wider research capacity, early engagement with policymakers and communities, better research integrity and responsible use of AI. The discussions also called for dedicated mechanisms to help move research findings into practice.\r\nThe message of research translating into meaningful change was reflected beyond the Forum itself through the BMJ Awards South Asia 2026, which followed the Research Forum and recognised individuals and teams whose work is making a tangible difference across healthcare.\r\nAmong the recognised initiatives were the Carbon-SUSTAIN study, which received the Sustainability and Climate Action Award; a phased implementation of a surgical safety care bundle, recognised with the Quality Improvement Award; and a digital scoring system for COPD control, which received the Digital Innovation Award. Other awards recognised work spanning primary care, maternal and child health, medical education, research and lifetime contribution to healthcare.\r\nThe Research Paper of the Year awards further demonstrated the breadth of work being recognised, including research on the YCMAP intervention among adolescents after self-harm in Pakistan, published in The BMJ, and research on the impact of the indigenous Rotavac rotavirus vaccine in India’s Universal Immunization Programme during 2016–2020, published in Nature Medicine.\r\nDr Prashant Mishra, Managing Director, BMJ India &amp;amp; South Asia, said:\r\n“Across the BMJ Research Forum, the Medical Education Leadership Round Table, and the BMJ South Asia Awards, we are bringing together three essential dimensions of progress in Indian healthcare: research that creates real-world impact, building the capabilities of tomorrow’s healthcare workforce, and recognising those already making a difference. Together, these initiatives reflect BMJ’s commitment to putting evidence, learning and professional excellence at the heart of better healthcare and helping shape a healthier India for 2030 and beyond.”\r\nTogether, the Research Forum and Awards underscored a shared imperative: research must be judged not only by what is published, but by what it changes.\r\nDon’t just fund research, fund its translation. Don’t just measure publications, measure lives changed. And don’t wait for evidence to arrive at policy’s door bring policy into the room from day one.\r\nIf you object to the content of this press release, please notify us at pr.error.rectification@gmail.com.

The brand witnessed an encouraging response from consumers right from Day 1, with approximately 2,500 people visiting the outlet on its opening day and customers queuing up to place their orders.\r\nThe strong opening response marks an important milestone in Ajay’s growth journey as the brand expands beyond its Gujarat stronghold and enters one of India’s most competitive and dynamic QSR markets. With the Mumbai launch, Ajay’s Café has increased its overall store count to 282 outlets.\r\nThe packed outlet and sustained customer footfall during the launch underline the growing acceptance of Ajay’s proposition of great taste, a vibrant café experience and pocket-friendly pricing. The response in Mumbai also reflects the brand’s ability to take a familiar, accessible café experience from Gujarat to newer consumer markets.\r\nCommenting on the development, Mr. Ajay Solanki, Founder, Ajay’s Café, said, “Mumbai is a very important market for us, and entering it has been a significant milestone in Ajay’s journey. What made the first day particularly encouraging was the response from consumers; seeing approximately 2,500 people visit our first outlet and customers queue up for our products was a strong validation of the proposition we have built over the years. We have always believed that great taste, a good café experience and affordability should go hand in hand, and we are excited to bring this philosophy to Mumbai. Gujarat will always be an important part of our story, but our ambition is to take the Ajay’s experience to consumers across markets, and Mumbai is an important step in that journey.”\r\nThe Mumbai entry comes at a time when Ajay’s Café is strengthening its expansion roadmap and taking its Gujarat-born brand to newer geographies. The brand has built a strong presence in Gujarat through its café-led QSR format, with its proposition centred around popular offerings such as burgers and cold coffee.\r\nThe opening-day response in Nalasopara provides an early indication of the opportunity Ajay’s sees in Maharashtra. With Mumbai being a highly competitive market characterised by diverse consumer preferences and established QSR players, the brand’s initial consumer traction offers an encouraging start to its expansion journey in the state.\r\nFor Ajay’s Café, the Mumbai launch is therefore not merely the addition of another outlet, but a strategic step towards building a larger national footprint. The brand intends to leverage its established operating experience, consumer proposition and franchise-led growth model as it explores opportunities across new markets.","articleSection":"Business","datePublished":"2026-09-08T13:35:28+0530","dateModified":"2026-09-08T13:38:26+0530","inLanguage":"en-us","author":{"@type":"Person","name":"PNN","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com/user/pnnindia"},"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Marudhara Bharti English","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com/uploads/logo/logo_6ab9270c36c334-01124948.png"}},"image":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://pnndigital.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/09/PNN-2-15.jpg","contentUrl":"https://pnndigital.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/09/PNN-2-15.jpg"},"keywords":["Ajay’s","Café","makes","strong","Mumbai","Debut","2","500","Customers","turn","Opening","Day"]}</script>

With families preparing for celebrations and routines becoming increasingly hectic, the World Avocado Organisation (WAO) is highlighting how nutrient-rich foods such as avocados can support everyday nutrition while adding flavour and versatility to Indian meals.\r\nAs consumers look for convenient ways to make healthier choices without compromising on taste, avocados offer a combination of water, dietary fibre, healthy fats and essential nutrients. Comprising approximately 73% water, avocados can help complement daily hydration, while their nutritional profile makes them a versatile addition to meals throughout the day.\r\n\r\nEssential Electrolyte Balance: A half-avocado serving (68g) yields 345 mg of potassium and 19.5 mg of magnesium. Weight-for-weight, avocados contain nearly double the potassium of a banana and three times the magnesium of a tomato, helping prevent muscle fatigue and sluggishness during late-summer heat and festive preparations.\r\nSustained Energy &amp;amp; Satiety: With 7g of dietary fiber per half fruit alongside healthy fats, avocados slow gastric emptying to prevent sudden energy dips and keep you full longer throughout active days.\r\nNourishing Skin Health: September weather transitions can stress the skin; avocados deliver natural antioxidants, including vitamin E and carotenoids like lutein, to support skin elasticity and health from within.\r\n\r\nAligned with its 2026 campaign thought, “Make Wellness Joyful,” WAO is encouraging Indian consumers to view wellness not as a compromise, but as an opportunity to discover food that is both nourishing and enjoyable.\r\nAs India moves into one of its most vibrant times of the year, WAO’s message is simple: wellness can be delicious, accessible, and joyful. With their versatility and nutrient-rich profile, avocados can be an easy way for consumers to add variety and nourishment to everyday Indian meals while enjoying food they love.\r\nFeatured Festive Recipes\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nRecipe credit: Bristi’s Kitchen\r\n1.

WAO’s 2026 campaign aims to inspire consumers to look at avocados not simply as an imported fruit, but as a versatile ingredient that can complement familiar Indian flavours and cooking styles.\r\nWAO Chairman Zac Bard said, “India continues to be an exciting and important market for avocados, and we are delighted to build on the momentum we have created over the past few years. What is particularly encouraging is the growing curiosity around avocados, not just among consumers, but also among chefs, nutritionists and the wider food community.”\r\n“As Indian food culture continues to evolve, our continued aim is to make avocados more accessible and relevant to Indian consumers, and to show just how easily they can become part of everyday eating,” added Bard.\r\nThe 2026 campaign will bring together renowned Indian chefs, nutritionists, food creators and media voices to explore the many possibilities of avocados. Through recipes, culinary collaborations, educational initiatives and consumer-focused content, WAO will showcase how the fruit can be adapted to Indian tastes while highlighting its recognised nutritional benefits.\r\nFrom traditional regional flavours to contemporary interpretations, the campaign will encourage consumers to experiment with avocados and discover new ways to make them part of their everyday meals.\r\nAs India’s food landscape continues to embrace global ingredients while celebrating its rich regional culinary heritage, WAO’s 2026 campaign seeks to put the avocado firmly within that conversation, making it more familiar, more accessible and more relevant to the Indian consumer.\r\nAbout the World Avocado Organisation\r\nThe World Avocado Organisation (WAO) is a non-profit organisation founded in 2016, representing avocado growers, exporters and importers from around the world.

As a result, low-rise and builder-floor housing has witnessed increased demand in established localities and new corridors such as New Gurugram and Dwarka Expressway.\r\nWith its growing footprint of organized developers in this segment, the market is witnessing a more structured approach to residential development that goes beyond individual projects to include considerations of planning, design, construction quality and overall residential offering.\r\nLaburnum Developers’ Position within the Evolving Market\r\nLaburnum Developers has established a presence within the shifting dynamics of this housing segment. With more than 35 years of residential development experience since its inception in 1992, the company has a strong presence within Gurugram’s premium housing space, as reflected in its company profile, with more than 14 lakh sq. ft. of delivered area, over 22 lakh sq. ft of built-up area and more than 500 families served.\r\nIts current portfolio of Victory Floors reflects its approach to premium residential development across multiple localities in Gurugram. With an established footprint in Sectors 47, 48 and 49 as well as Ansal Versalia in Sector 67A, Laburnum’s broader development presence extends across Sectors 63A, 82A, 83, 88 and 89 giving the company a footprint across established residential areas as well as newer growth corridors.\r\nContemporary Design, Curated Privacy and Quality Execution\r\nThe evolution of Gurugram’s luxury builder-floor segment is being driven not only by the format in which the home is offered but also by the values developers brings to the table in terms of design, construction and the overall residential experience for homebuyers.\r\nLaburnum Developers’ approach to its residential offerings reflects a focus on contemporary design, comfort and quality of construction, complemented by an emphasis on lifestyle planning. The company’s emphasis on transparency, trust and long-standing relationships with stakeholders further supports the residential proposition offered within the premium housing segment.\r\nLaburnum’s experience adds to the appeal of the builder-floor format in a city like Gurugram, where the approach to home ownership has evolved to include considerations of architectural design, amenities, functionality and quality of construction alongside privacy and low-density living.\r\nIts approach to residential development provides an organised proposition within the builder-floor segment, where the focus shifts from simply viewing the home as an alternative to a high-rise apartment towards creating a more holistic living space through amenities, architectural design and quality of construction across a range of home plans.\r\nFormalising and Elevating the Builder-Floor Segment\r\nGurugram’s builder-floor segment has traditionally been characterised by a more fragmented development process focused on plot-specific planning. The inclusion of organised developers within the segment has contributed to a more structured residential proposition in terms of planning, facilities, amenities and execution.\r\nLaburnum Developers’ footprint in Gurugram reflects this transition, with its presence across multiple sectors positioning the company within the evolution of the city’s premium housing segment.\r\nIts presence across sectors 47, 48 and 49 to 63A, 67A, 82A, 83, 88 and 89 enables the developer to address the changing needs of homebuyers across established residential localities and newer residential corridors. Furthermore, its focus on contemporary design and quality of construction reflects the broader shift in expectations around the residential experience among luxury homebuyers.\r\nThe evolution of the luxury builder-floor segment in Gurugram reflects an increasing emphasis on the quality of the resident experience. In this space, a professional approach towards development, with greater oversight of design, facilities and execution, can play an important role in enabling the homebuyer to move beyond the nuances of plot-specific planning and towards a more consistent residential offering.\r\nVision for a New Era in Gurugram’s Skyline\r\nIt is also the vision of Mr. Vipin Kaushik, Managing Director, Laburnum Developers, which has guided the company through its journey, as it builds on its rich legacy and experience in Gurugram’s residential real estate space.\r\nHis emphasis on newer construction practices, as well as his commitment to transparency and trust between the buyer and developer, has helped the company take a lead in Gurugram’s upcoming organized builder-floor segment.\r\nMr. Kaushik’s vision for the future skyline of Gurugram is one that is defined by high-end residential projects that cater to the changing needs of today’s buyer. His commitment to redefining the skyline of Gurugram is what has driven the company’s expansion into the residential segment, as it continues to focus on construction and design-led development, as well as the enhancement of the overall living experience.\r\nWith the capital city’s development trajectory on an upward path, it is only natural that the luxury residential real estate market will see an increased demand in the years to come, in line with the shifting demands of homebuyers. In this space, a developer’s vision and approach play a central role, while the premium builder-floor segment has the potential to reflect a greater degree of organisation and professionalism in its residential proposition.\r\nA New Era for Builder-Floor Housing in Gurugram\r\nLaburnum Developers’ presence across Sectors 47, 48, 49, 63A, 67A, 82A, 83, 88 and 89 reflects the changing dynamics of the premium residential market in Gurugram.\r\nThe company’s experience in the residential real estate space, including farmhouse development and the Laburnum Public School education vertical, has enabled it to establish a broader presence within the city’s expanding development landscape.\r\nMore importantly, its residential journey reflects the transformation taking place within the luxury builder-floor segment, with a growing focus on design, amenities and the overall living experience alongside privacy and low-density living.\r\nGuided by Mr. Vipin Kaushik’s vision and dedication towards transforming Gurugram’s skyline, Laburnum Developers’ trajectory reflects a continuing shift towards a more organised and professional approach to premium residential development in the city.\r\nhttps://projectsingurgaon.com/residential-projects-in-gurgaon/\r\nhttps://projectsdwarkaexpressway.com/\r\nhttps://victoryfloors.laburnumdevelopers.com/\r\n","articleSection":"Business","datePublished":"2026-09-07T18:18:45+0530","dateModified":"2026-09-07T18:19:51+0530","inLanguage":"en-us","author":{"@type":"Person","name":"PNN","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com/user/pnnindia"},"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Marudhara Bharti English","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com/uploads/logo/logo_6ab9270c36c334-01124948.png"}},"image":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://pnndigital.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/09/PNN-2026-09-07T164752.814.jpg","contentUrl":"https://pnndigital.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/09/PNN-2026-09-07T164752.814.jpg"},"keywords":["Laburnum Developers","Premium Housing Market"]}</script>

The stock closed at ₹773.65, with around 2.89 million shares changing hands during the session. The latest rally has taken the stock 146.8% above its 52-week low of ₹320, while it is now just 0.47% below its adjusted historical peak of ₹793.33.\r\nThe sharp re-rating comes as investors increasingly view the post-demerger Raymond as a focused engineering and precision-manufacturing company rather than its earlier diversified conglomerate structure. Following the demerger of its lifestyle and real-estate businesses, Raymond Limited now offers more direct exposure to aerospace, defence, automotive components and precision technology. The restructuring has created separate entities for Raymond Limited, Raymond Realty and Raymond Lifestyle, providing greater transparency into the earnings potential and growth prospects of each business.\r\nThe company’s latest financial performance has also strengthened the investment narrative. During Q1 FY2027, Raymond’s total income increased 13% year-on-year to ₹628 crore, while EBITDA rose 14% to ₹100 crore. The EBITDA margin improved to 15.9%, indicating continued operating strength.\r\nAerospace and defence have emerged as key growth drivers for the company. Revenue from the segment increased 40.4% year-on-year to ₹123 crore, while EBITDA stood at ₹26 crore. The growth was supported by higher production for global original-equipment manufacturers and an expanding product portfolio.\r\nRaymond’s acquisition of Maini Precision Products has further accelerated its presence in aerospace, defence and electric-vehicle components. The company is moving towards sophisticated subsystems, aero-engine modules and higher-value precision assemblies, which could help strengthen its competitive positioning and deepen relationships with customers.\r\nThe company’s engineering order book provides further visibility for future growth. Raymond’s engineering order book exceeds ₹5,960 crore, while its additional request-for-quotation pipeline stands at ₹1,632 crore. The company has a presence across more than 60 countries, with exports accounting for more than half of its engineering business.\r\nCapacity expansion, progress at the Andhra Pradesh facility and the planned mass production of precision defence components could support the company’s next phase of growth. The aerospace business also benefits from qualification requirements and long programme cycles, which can create entry barriers and potentially provide sustained revenue visibility.\r\nThe sharp recovery in Raymond’s share price suggests that the market is increasingly assigning a different valuation framework to the company following its transformation. Strong execution, expanding manufacturing capabilities and a sizeable order pipeline have emerged as key elements of the new growth narrative.\r\nWith the stock now approaching its historical peak, investors will closely track the company’s ability to execute its engineering order book, scale its aerospace and defence operations and deliver on margins. While market prices remain volatile, Raymond’s post-demerger transformation has placed the company at a significant inflection point as investors assess its potential as a specialised engineering and aerospace platform\r\n","articleSection":"Business","datePublished":"2026-09-07T17:39:47+0530","dateModified":"2026-09-07T17:40:22+0530","inLanguage":"en-us","author":{"@type":"Person","name":"PNN","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com/user/pnnindia"},"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Marudhara Bharti English","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com/uploads/logo/logo_6ab9270c36c334-01124948.png"}},"image":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://pnndigital.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/09/PNN-2026-09-07T150423.221.jpg","contentUrl":"https://pnndigital.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/09/PNN-2026-09-07T150423.221.jpg"},"keywords":["Raymond","Aerospace","Defence Business Fuels Re-Rating"]}</script>

The education-first initiative is designed to continuously enhance the knowledge, skills, and professional practices of breeders while strengthening the foundation of the broader pet care industry.\r\nAround 50 local and regional breeders participated in this full-day educational workshop, which featured scientific sessions led by Dr. Ajay Pal Singh Mangat, a renowned veterinarian and speaker. The sessions focused on scientific learning, practical knowledge, responsible breeding practices, and professional development.\r\nThe interactive programme covered critical aspects of canine healthcare and responsible breeding, including genetics, breeding pair selection, kennel management, neonatal care, nutrition, reproduction, lactation, deworming, and vaccination protocols. Through these deep-dive sessions, participants gained practical scientific insights aimed at improving animal health and welfare from the very beginning of a pet’s life.\r\nSpeaking on the occasion, Dr. Dhananjay Pandit, Freossi, Petcare Division of Fredun Pharmaceutical Ltd, stated, “Breeders are the starting point of the pet care ecosystem, as every pet’s journey begins with them. Through SAHYOG CEP, our objective is to make continuous learning an integral part of the breeding community. We firmly believe that when breeders are equipped with scientific knowledge and practical guidance, it directly elevates the health, welfare, and quality of life for pets.”\r\n“Breeding is not simply about producing the next generation. It is about making informed decisions today that shape the health and wellbeing of generations to come,’ commented Dr Ajay Pal Singh Mangat.\r\nThe SAHYOG CEP framework was conceived in August 2023, launching its inaugural event in Mumbai on October 8, 2023. Since its inception, Freossi has taken the programme to key cities across India, including Mumbai, Thane, Pune, Bengaluru, Aurangabad, and now Ludhiana – marking the 15th successful chapter in the series.\r\nAs part of its larger strategic vision, Freossi has expanded its educational footprint beyond breeders.

The workshop focused on strengthening classroom practices and enabling educators to create more engaging, experiential and student-centred learning environments.\r\nThe training focused on moving beyond traditional teaching methods towards experiential STEM pedagogy, process-based learning and technology-enabled teaching. Teachers explored pedagogic approaches and through Design Thinking, helped them create more interactive classrooms where students actively participate, collaborate and learn by solving problems. They were also introduced to AI and EdTech tools that can support teaching and make learning more engaging.\r\nThe sessions also covered ASER data analysis, helping teachers understand students’ learning levels and identify gaps that need focused attention. Through activities on reverse engineering and real-world STEM problem-solving, teachers learnt how to encourage students to question, experiment and find practical solutions to everyday challenges.\r\nThe training concluded with teachers developing practical STEM Action Plans tailored to their classroom needs, helping them translate these learnings into meaningful and sustained changes in their teaching practices.\r\nThe workshop was graced by Shri Ashok Kadus, Education Officer, NMMC and Smt. Sulbha Barghare, Extension Officer, Education Department, NMMC. Their visit and interaction with the participating teachers motivated and inspired educators to continue adopting innovative approaches and strengthening STEM learning in their classrooms.\r\nShri Ashok Kadus, Education Officer, Navi Mumbai Municipal Corporation, said: “Through the Amazon Think Big Space Program in partnership with Learning Links Foundation, our students have learned to dream big and achieve bigger. This collaboration has empowered government school students with confidence and STEM skills, while also strengthening teacher capacity to translate concepts into effective pedagogy. Teachers are equipped with global best practices and continuous support, enabling them to innovate in classrooms and inspire the next generation of learners.”\r\nOver the past seven years, this partnership has conducted five large-scale teacher training programmes, reaching more than 300 unique teachers. With over 70% of teachers returning each year, this sustained participation demonstrates the powerful ripple effect it creates among more than 10,500 NMMC school students from grades 6 to 8; reflecting the teacher’s appreciation for continuous learning and their dedication to introducing fresh ideas and innovative approaches in the classroom. Regular handholding sessions further support teachers in applying these learnings in their classrooms, ensuring sustained impact. By empowering teachers, the programme strengthens learning across thousands of classrooms and reaches generations of students.\r\nThe teacher training program also recognises and motivates teachers through the Teacher Spotlight Series and Teacher Excellence Awards. As part of the Spotlight Series, teachers share photos, videos and brief accounts of how they have applied STEM best practices in their classrooms. Each week, one teacher is recognised among their peers for their innovative efforts and classroom impact. These submissions also form the basis for the Teacher Excellence Awards, where the top 10 teachers are shortlisted through a detailed selection process, with the top three honoured for their excellence and contribution to STEM education.\r\nThe Amazon Think Big Space Program continues to strengthen STEM education in Navi Mumbai through three complementary models: STEM Labs, fully equipped innovation spaces; STEM Corners, compact classroom-based learning hubs; and the Mobile STEAM Van, a laboratory on wheels that brings hands-on AI and STEM learning to schools with limited or no STEM infrastructure.\r\nThe collaboration also expands its focus to areas such as communication skills and holistic development, while creating opportunities for students to participate in national and international STEM and robotics competitions. Together, the partners remain committed to strengthening pedagogy, expanding access to innovation and building future-ready learning environments for teachers and students.","articleSection":"Business","datePublished":"2026-09-07T17:39:46+0530","dateModified":"2026-09-07T17:41:46+0530","inLanguage":"en-us","author":{"@type":"Person","name":"PNN","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com/user/pnnindia"},"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Marudhara Bharti English","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://en.marudharabharti.com/uploads/logo/logo_6ab9270c36c334-01124948.png"}},"image":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://pnndigital.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/09/PNN-24.jpg","contentUrl":"https://pnndigital.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/09/PNN-24.jpg"},"keywords":["Empowering Teachers","Inspiring Future Innovators","Amazon","STEM Learning"]}</script>

It meant handing your belongings to a stranger you found through word of mouth, hoping a local contact number would answer if something went wrong, and dealing with hidden charges that showed up only after the job was done. Packing and moving has been considered one of the most stressful events a person can go through. For most of India, the unorganised packers and movers industry did nothing to change that. If anything, it made the stress worse.\r\nNoBroker Packers and Movers set out to fix exactly this problem, not just the logistics of moving, but the psychology behind it. Built over more than 10 years of operations, the service today operates across 100-plus cities and more than 2500 localities in India, has completed over 15 lakh successful relocations, and serves more than 4 lakh families every year. It holds a rating of 4.8 out of 5 from more than 8.9 lakh verified reviews, making it India’s most reviewed and highest-rated organised relocation platform. This did not happen by accident. It happened because NoBroker built its entire process around a foundation that unorganised operators have never been able to offer.\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nThe Real Cost of an Unorganised Industry\r\nEvery unpleasant experience with traditional packers and movers eventually comes down to the same root cause: a complete absence of accountability. No standard process, no consistent quality, no one to answer if a box arrived broken or a delivery showed up two days late. For the person going through the move, this uncertainty is not a minor inconvenience. It is a constant, low grade source of anxiety that runs through the entire moving experience, from the day the move is booked to the day the last item is unpacked.\r\nAdd to this what psychologists call decision fatigue. What to pack first, how to wrap fragile items, which box goes where, whether the movers showing up can actually be trusted. Each of these is a small decision on its own, but stacked together over the course of a move, they wear a person down long before the actual moving day arrives.\r\nRemoving Decisions, Not Just Boxes\r\nThis is where NoBroker’s model changes the equation. Instead of relying on local contacts or endless phone calls, NoBroker replaces traditional manual coordination with an automated, tech-driven platform where you can manage your entire move digitally. Every booking comes with a dedicated Quality Service Expert who coordinates the move from the first box packed to the last one delivered, taking the guesswork out of decisions that would otherwise fall entirely on the customer. Items that need specific handling, whether electronics, wooden furniture, or fragile items like crockery and glass items, are flagged and planned for at the time of booking itself, not figured out on the spot under pressure.\r\nThe booking process reflects the same philosophy. Visit the platform, choose your move type, add your inventory, review a clear breakdown of charges, and confirm. Nothing hidden, nothing added later. For a customer who has already spent weeks worrying about the move itself, a transparent and predictable booking process removes one more thing to think about.\r\nTrust, Rebuilt Through Reviews and Numbers\r\nWhere unorganised movers relied on a phone number and a hopeful referral, NoBroker built trust through data. With more than 8.9 lakh verified reviews backing a 4.8 rating, customers no longer have to take a stranger’s word for it. They can see, in detail, how the service has performed for hundreds of thousands of families before them. This single shift, from blind trust to informed choice, does more to reduce moving-related anxiety than almost any other change the industry has seen.\r\nThat trust is backed by a concrete commitment: the Zero Damage Zero Delay Guarantee, India’s first. It is a 100 percent damage and delay protection policy with no fine print, no claim forms, and no waiting. Any damage, any delay, NoBroker pays. For someone who has spent a lifetime worrying about their belongings during a move, a guarantee like this does not just protect their goods. It protects their peace of mind.\r\n“Moving to a new home is one of life’s biggest milestones, and unpredictable weather shouldn’t turn it into a nightmare. We built our relocation logistics to survive extreme conditions of Indian weather so our customers never have to worry about them. When you step into a new home, you should be celebrating, not dealing with damaged memories,” says Amit Kumar Agarwal, CEO and cofounder of NoBroker.\r\nTechnology That Works Quietly in the Background\r\nA large part of what makes NoBroker’s process feel less stressful is what customers never have to think about. Materials like PP boxes made from polypropylene, triple layer stretch film, and fully covered vehicles for every move are decisions the platform has already made on the customer’s behalf, long before the first item is packed. The customer does not need to worry about whether a box will hold up in the rain or whether their belongings are exposed during transit. That decision has already been made for them.\r\nReal-time tracking adds another layer of relief. Instead of waiting anxiously for a phone call, customers can see exactly where their move stands at any point. Uncertainty, more than the physical process of moving itself, is often what drives stress the highest, and visibility is one of the simplest ways to bring that stress down.\r\nA Move That Does Not Cost You Your Peace of Mind\r\nThe psychology of stress during a move has not changed. Moving is still, and will likely always be, one of life’s more disruptive events. What has changed is how much of that stress is necessary. With verified providers, transparent pricing, guided decision-making, real-time tracking, and a guarantee that removes the fear of loss altogether, NoBroker Packers and Movers has taken a process once defined by anxiety and rebuilt it around confidence.\r\nIf you object to the content of this press release, please notify us at pr.error.rectification@gmail.com.
