<title>International High School for Young Musicians: A New Pathway to Global Music Education</title>

<description><![CDATA[  

Furtados
School of Music and Corvuss American Academy introduce an exclusive
international high school residential programme for students committed to
pursuing music with purpose, discipline and global ambition.

The world&#039;s
finest institutions have long understood a simple truth: extraordinary talent
deserves an education designed around it. Yet for generations, young musicians
have been asked to fit their aspirations around conventional schooling,
treating artistic excellence as an extracurricular pursuit rather than a
serious academic discipline.

The
partnership between Furtados School of Music (FSM) and Corvuss American Academy
challenges that convention with a new kind of educational experience—an
exclusive high school programme created for students whose commitment to music
extends far beyond the classroom.

Designed
for a carefully selected cohort of students in Grades 8 to 12, the programme
combines a WASC-accredited American high school with the Advanced
Placement (AP) curriculum from the College Board, alongside an immersive
music specialisation that places artistic development at the centre of everyday
learning.

Students
pursue rigorous training in performance, musicianship, music theory,
composition, ensemble practice and creative expression while building the
academic credentials, professional portfolios and artistic maturity expected by
leading universities and conservatories around the world. As part of their journey,
students prepare for the highly demanding AP Music Theory
examination alongside internationally recognised Trinity College London
and ABRSM practical examinations. Individual mentorship,
international pathways and curated performance opportunities ensure that every
student&#039;s journey is as purposeful as it is personal.

Rooted in
the enduring 150 years legacy of Furtados Music &amp; FSM and strengthened by
the internationally accredited academic excellence of Corvuss American Academy,
this collaboration represents a new benchmark for specialist education in
India. It is an environment where ambition is recognised early, talent is
cultivated with intention, and excellence is expected—not exceptional.

Admission
is intentionally selective. For those ready to commit to their craft, this is
more than a school. It is the beginning of a life shaped by artistry, purpose
and possibility.

<title>The Man Behind Mumbai’s Rising Skyline: Meet Hasan Barday, The Architect of ‘Impossible Made Possible’</title>

<guid>https://en.newsbolt.in/the-man-behind-mumbais-rising-skyline-meet-hasan-barday-the-architect-of-impossible-made-possible</guid>
<description><![CDATA[  

Mumbai doesn’t grow by
accident. It grows because people like Hasan Barday make it happen.

 

We honor a specialist
whose name might not be on the building, but whose technical precision and
regulatory mastery are in every foundation, every approval, every inch of
progress. Mr. Hasan Barday isn’t just a phenomenal civil engineer and
liaisoning architect — he’s the vital bridge between vision and reality.

 

Where grand blueprints
meet hard regulations, Hasan steps in. He speaks the language of BMC, MHADA,
and SRA so fluently that red tape turns into green signals. Complex files,
critical NOCs, multi-agency clearances — he navigates them with the same
accuracy he brings to structural drawings.

 

In a city where one
delay can stall dreams, Hasan keeps Mumbai moving. His incredible work
doesn’t make headlines, but it makes skylines. From slum rehab projects that
restore dignity, to high-rises that redefine luxury, to infrastructure that
connects millions — if it’s shaping the city, chances are Hasan’s expertise
shaped it first.

 

He doesn’t just
liaison. He translates ambition into compliance, and compliance into
construction. He ensures that the architect’s dream and the citizen’s need
both meet the law’s letter — and still rise, floor by floor.

 

Mumbai evolves every
single day. Quietly. Seamlessly. Because of professionals like Hasan Barday.

 

The
next time you look up at this city’s skyline, remember: behind every crane,
there’s a mind like his. Let’s give it up for the man who makes Mumbai possible
— Mr. Hasan Barday.

<title>From Global Trade to ‘Made in India’: Mustafa Bundiwala Powers a New Chapter in Rubber Manufacturing</title>
<link>https://en.newsbolt.in/from-global-trade-to-made-in-india-mustafa-bundiwala-powers-a-new-chapter-in-rubber-manufacturing</link>
<guid>https://en.newsbolt.in/from-global-trade-to-made-in-india-mustafa-bundiwala-powers-a-new-chapter-in-rubber-manufacturing</guid>
<description><![CDATA[ In an era where ‘Make
in India’ is more than a slogan, Mr. Mustafa Bundiwala, Partner at Indian
Rubber Industry, is turning vision into reality.

 

An entrepreneur with
over five years in the power tools sector, Mr. Bundiwala first made his mark as
a trader. Working hand-in-hand with international brands, he sourced and
imported products from across the globe — an experience that sharpened his eye
for global quality standards, customer expectations, and fast-shifting market
demands.

But trading was only
the beginning.

 

Today, Mr. Bundiwala
has taken a bold leap — from importing to innovating. With a clear mission to
manufacture world-class industrial rubber products in India, he’s
bridging the gap between global benchmarks and local capability. His move
reflects a deeper belief: India doesn’t just consume quality, it can create it.

 

By setting up advanced
manufacturing, he aims to serve industries that demand precision, durability,
and trust — all while generating jobs and reducing import dependency.

 

For Mr. Bundiwala, this
isn’t just business. It’s a commitment to self-reliance, to Indian engineering,
and to the next generation of homegrown excellence.

 

The
next era of industrial rubber isn’t coming from overseas. It’s rising from
India — and Mustafa Bundiwala is leading the charge.

 

The message is clear:
The future of industrial rubber isn’t just imported. It’s proudly made in
India.

<title>Rustomjee Introduces an exclusive payment plan &#45; Own a Rustomjee Home at just 10% Now</title>
<link>https://en.newsbolt.in/rustomjee-introduces-an-exclusive-payment-plan-own-a-rustomjee-home-at-just-10-now</link>
<guid>https://en.newsbolt.in/rustomjee-introduces-an-exclusive-payment-plan-own-a-rustomjee-home-at-just-10-now</guid>
<description><![CDATA[ Mumbai,
10 July, 2026: Rustomjee, one of Mumbai&#039;s leading real estate
developers, has announced the launch of its limited period exclusive payment plan.
Designed to make buying a property more accessible and financially convenient,
the campaign allows customers to own a Rustomjee home by paying just 10%
upfront.

Available
across select Rustomjee properties, the offer caters to first-time homebuyers,
young professionals, growing families, and investors seeking long-term value.
By lowering the entry barrier and allowing customers to spread their financial
commitments over time, the campaign provides a timely opportunity to enter the
real estate market.

Mukesh
Singh, Chief Sales Officer, Rustomjee, added, “Today’s
homebuyers are seeking both aspiration and financial flexibility and
increasingly, they expect both from the same proposition. Purchasing a home
remains one of the most significant financial decisions a family will ever
make, and we recognise that the biggest hurdle is often not the willingness to
buy, but the weight of upfront financial commitment that comes with it.

Our ‘10% Now’ payment plan
directly addresses this reality allowing customers to secure their preferred
home today with minimal immediate outlay, while deferring the balance payment
until closer to project completion. This gives families the financial
flexibility and confidence to plan their transition into a new home without
immediate financial strain.

The
plan has been thoughtfully designed to cater to different buyer segments. For
NRIs, it provides the opportunity to make a lower upfront investment while
potentially benefiting from currency fluctuations or continued participation in
equity markets. For UHNIs with significant investments in equity markets, it
allows them to remain invested for potential short to long-term upside. For
end-users, it offers the flexibility to time the sale of their existing asset
closer to the completion of our project, potentially enabling better value
realisation. By significantly reducing the upfront financial commitment, the
plan empowers customers to optimize their capital while making one of life&#039;s
most important investments.”

The
campaign is also rooted in a philosophy that places families and human
experiences at the centre of every home. While the world often measures success
through achievements and titles, home remains the one place where people can
simply be themselves, surrounded by those who matter most. It is this belief
that informs everything Rustomjee builds.

As
families invest in their future and celebrate new milestones, Rustomjee’s exclusive payment plan
offers a compelling opportunity to turn the dream of homeownership into reality
with greater ease, confidence, and peace of mind.

prominent MMR based real estate developers and a leader in the redevelopment

<description><![CDATA[  

New Delhi: With retailers preparing for the upcoming festive and
winter shopping season, Topline Clothing LLP successfully concluded its latest
Winter Expo, attracting buyers looking to stock fresh collections and
strengthen their seasonal inventory. The exhibition witnessed an enthusiastic
response from retailers, making it bigger and more successful than last year’s
edition.

Known for organising sourcing events for the retail community, Topline
Clothing LLP has built a loyal following over the years. Many retailers now
wait for the company&#039;s exhibitions, considering them an important opportunity
to explore new collections, discover market trends and place orders ahead of
the season. This year&#039;s event once again lived up to those expectations,
receiving widespread appreciation for its product range, organisation and
overall experience.

The expo featured an extensive collection of girls&#039; and children&#039;s
apparel, offering retailers a wide variety of styles, designs and price points
suited to different customer segments. With seasonal demand expected to rise in
the coming months, buyers were keen to source fresh merchandise that would
appeal to customers while helping them maintain healthy business margins.

Retailers attending the exhibition appreciated the carefully curated
collections and the convenience of being able to evaluate multiple options
under one roof. Many visitors described the expo as a valuable business
platform that simplifies sourcing and helps them prepare well in advance for
the busy shopping season. The positive feedback reflected the growing trust
that Topline has earned among apparel retailers.

The latest edition also marked a significant step forward for the
company, with participation and business activity surpassing last year&#039;s event.
The larger turnout highlighted the increasing popularity of the exhibition and
reinforced Topline&#039;s position as a preferred sourcing destination for retailers
seeking quality products and reliable business partnerships.

Rather than being a one-time initiative, such exhibitions are
organised regularly by Topline Clothing LLP to support retailers with timely
access to new collections before every major season. The company&#039;s continued
focus on understanding market requirements and delivering relevant product
offerings has helped create long-term relationships with retailers across
different regions.

Founded by Siddhanth Bharti, Topline Clothing LLP has steadily
expanded its presence by focusing on quality, variety and value for its retail
partners. His vision has been to create a platform where retailers can source
the latest collections efficiently while staying ahead of changing consumer
preferences.

As the retail industry becomes increasingly competitive, exhibitions
such as the Winter Expo provide businesses with an opportunity to plan their
inventory strategically and respond to evolving fashion trends. The success of
this year&#039;s event demonstrated not only strong retailer confidence in the brand
but also the growing importance of organised B2B sourcing platforms in the
apparel sector.

With another successful edition completed, Topline Clothing LLP has
once again strengthened its reputation among retailers who eagerly await its
exhibitions season after season. The overwhelming response, larger scale
compared to last year and appreciation from attendees reaffirm the company&#039;s
commitment to helping retailers enter every season with fresh collections,
wider choices and renewed business confidence.

For retailers, exhibitions like these serve as an important platform
to make informed buying decisions before the season begins. Instead of relying
solely on catalogues or online selections, buyers get an opportunity to examine
product quality, understand the latest fashion trends and choose collections
that best suit the preferences of their customers. The event also created a
space for meaningful interactions between the company and its retail partners,
allowing discussions on evolving consumer demand and business requirements.
With fresh arrivals unveiled ahead of the festive and winter season, retailers
were able to plan their inventory early, ensuring they are well-equipped to meet
customer expectations when shopping activity gathers pace. ]]></description>

<title>Axis Max Life Deploys GreyLabs’ Voice AI Suite, Achieving ~15% Uplift in Sales Conversions</title>
<link>https://en.newsbolt.in/axis-max-life-deploys-greylabs-voice-ai-suite-achieving-15-uplift-in-sales-conversions</link>
<guid>https://en.newsbolt.in/axis-max-life-deploys-greylabs-voice-ai-suite-achieving-15-uplift-in-sales-conversions</guid>
<description><![CDATA[ By
analyzing over 6 lakh customer conversations - totalling over 1.4 Cr minutes of
call time across 700+ agents, with GreyLabs AI’s Voice AI Suite, Axis Max Life
is driving measurable improvement in sales conversion, agent performance, and
product design

New
Delhi, July 10, 2026: Axis Max Life Insurance Ltd., formerly
known as Max Life Insurance Company Limited (“Axis Max Life”/“Company”),
has deployed GreyLabs AI&#039;s Voice AI Suite, purpose-built for BFSI enterprises,
to unlock deeper customer intelligence and drive sales effectiveness. The
deployment has enabled Axis Max Life to move beyond limited, selective call
reviews to 100% AI-led assessment of all meaningful calls, surfacing actionable
intelligence that has contributed to a nearly 15% uplift in sales conversions.

One
of the most significant discoveries from the deployment: the first 90-120
seconds of a sales conversation predicts conversion propensity more powerfully
than any customer demographic profile. This insight helps Axis Max Life
identify high-intent customers and guides its telesales teams, shifting sales
strategy from who the customer is to what they say on the call.

Axis
Max Life has built advanced digital life insurance business over the past five
years. Its online business has grown 10x during this period, with digital
channels now contributing around 15% of the company&#039;s Annualised Premium
Equivalent (APE). Today, one in three new customers is acquired digitally, and
the online business continues to grow at approximately 4x the industry growth
rate, making Axis Max Life one of the digitally advanced life insurance
businesses in India.



As
Axis Max Life&#039;s digital business scaled rapidly, the volume and complexity of
telesales conversations grew beyond what traditional review processes could meaningfully
analyse. Recognising the untapped intelligence within these conversations, Axis
Max Life partnered with GreyLabs AI to build a more systematic, AI-led approach
to understanding customer intent at scale.



With
GreyLabs AI, Axis Max Life now analyses all meaningful conversations across
more than 700 agents, covering over 6 lakh calls and 1.4 Cr. minutes of
customer interactions. Post-conversation, contextual follow-up messages built
around what customers actually said rather than where they dropped off, have
driven click-through rates significantly higher. Even product design decisions
are now driven directly by customer voice.

Speaking
on the development, Aman Goel, Founder &amp; CEO, GreyLabs AI, said, “Axis
Max Life Insurance has been an exceptional partner, a team that was willing to
fundamentally rethink how customer intelligence should work in a regulated
industry. BFSI as a sector has historically been cautious about AI adoption and
rightly so. But what this deployment demonstrates is that when AI is
implemented with the right guardrails, the right intent, and a genuine focus on
business outcomes rather than technology for its own sake, the results are
transformative. What Axis Max Life has shown is that in regulated industries,
AI does not need to replace human judgment, it needs to inform it. That is the
model we are building across BFSI.&quot; 

Vaibhav
Kumar, Head – Products, E-Commerce and Enterprise COE, Axis Max Life Insurance,
said, &quot;At Axis Max
Life, our digital business is built on the principle of understanding what our
customers need. GreyLabs AI&#039;s Voice AI Suite has given us an ability to listen
to our customers at scale - not just what they say, but what they mean. The
intelligence we&#039;ve gained has helped us serve customers better, design more
relevant products, and build more meaningful conversations at every touchpoint.
This is exactly the kind of partnership that helps us deliver on our promise to
customers.&quot;

Building
on these results, Axis Max Life and GreyLabs AI are exploring expanded applications
of AI across the sales lifecycle including a Voice AI Calling Agent being
implemented to proactively engage prospects, guide them through their purchase
journey. This collaboration reflects a broader shift underway across India&#039;s
BFSI sector demonstrating that regulated financial institutions can deploy AI
with confidence, compliance, and measurable business impact.

<description><![CDATA[  Anchored by the trust and legacy of BIG FM, the pioneering initiative
integrates Radio, Multi-Format News Network, Digital Entertainment Platforms,
Digital OOH, and Live Experiences to create India’s most connected media &amp;
entertainment ecosystem.

MUMBAI, JULY 2026 : Reliance Broadcast Network Limited (RBNL)
today announced its evolution into a progressive, converged media and
entertainment powerhouse with the official launch of ONE BIG WORLD.
Built on the iconic BIG FM legacy, ONE BIG WORLD marks a strategic shift from
standalone verticals to a fully integrated ecosystem designed to accompany
consumers across every physical and digital touchpoint of their daily lives.
ONE BIG WORLD will operate from a sprawling 60,000 sq. ft. upcoming facility in
Noida. 

ONE BIG WORLD reaches more than 500 million
monthly users through 67 BIG FM radio stations, BIG News Network, 100
million+ lifetime BIG LIVE users, 20 million+ social media reach, and 5,000+
transit BIG DOOH screens across 75+ cities. The launch also signals a major
expansion into hyperlocal, vernacular digital, and experiential sectors with
the introduction of BIG FM One, BIG Experiences, and BIG Vibe.

At its core, ONE BIG WORLD is more than a
platform — it is a philosophy. By eliminating silos between content,
distribution, audiences, and brand experiences, RBNL is building an
unprecedented multi-platform network optimized for deep consumer engagement,
community building, commerce, and measurable outcomes for advertisers.

Commenting on the launch, Sahil Mangla,
Chairman, RBNL, said: &quot;For nearly two decades, BIG FM has built

with Indian audiences. ONE BIG WORLD is our strategic response to the evolving,

unlocking a new dimension of value for consumers and advertising partners.
Brands no longer need to piece together fragmented campaigns. We offer robust,
360-degree, in-house solutions — from content creation to multi-channel
distribution and on-ground activations across Radio, News, Digital, DOOH, and
experiential platforms. This unified approach delivers deeper engagement,

Scott and championship-winning English midfielder Steve Sidwell, who will lead

ocean energy to the waves.

Across martial arts and movement, Angela Lee Pucci, former six-time
world champion and Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu black belt, joins at Landaa Giraavaru
alongside Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu black belt and coach Bruno Pucci. Leo Vieira,
Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu pioneer and multiple-time world champion, leads sessions at
Kuda Huraa, while Indian Shaolin monk and Kung Fu master Hurssh Verma and
national Kungfu champion Guo Jing bring discipline, philosophy and movement to

Award-winning filmmaker and ocean storyteller Craig Foster, best known

<title>Pidilite’s Fevicryl Launches Children’s Art Range ‘Fevicryl YUDU’</title>
<link>https://en.newsbolt.in/pidilites-fevicryl-launches-childrens-art-range-fevicryl-yudu</link>

<description><![CDATA[ India,
09th June 2026: Pidilite Industries’ arts and crafts brand
Fevicryl has unveiled its new digital video campaign, ‘Fevicryl YUDU - Banao
Apni Stories’, marking its foray into the premium children’s art category.
Rooted in the belief that every child has a story waiting to be told, the
campaign celebrates imagination as the beginning of every story and creativity
as the language through which children express who they are.

The
Fevicryl YUDU range includes a thoughtfully curated portfolio of child-safe
creative tools such as brush pens, poster colours, 3-in-1 pencils and more.
Designed to work across multiple surfaces, the range gives children the freedom
to draw, paint, mould and create without boundaries. Every product is non-toxic
and made to encourage limitless exploration.

Speaking
about the launch, Mr. Kashyap Gala, Senior Vice President, Consumer Products
Division, Pidilite Industries Ltd., said, &quot;With Fevicryl YUDU - Banao
Apni Stories, we wanted to create more than an art range, we wanted to create a
brand that believes every child deserves the freedom to imagine, express and
tell stories in their own unique way. Fevicryl YUDU equips children with the
right creative tools to turn everyday thoughts, ideas and dreams into stories,
helping them discover the joy of self-expression without limits.&quot;

At
the heart of the campaign lies a simple belief: stories are an extension of who
children are. Whether it’s a dinosaur flying to school, a house in the clouds
or animals that talk, children’s imaginations know no rules. Through colours,
clay and creative play, they build worlds that are wonderfully their own.

Fevicryl
YUDU is an invitation for children to imagine freely, explore fearlessly and
express themselves in their own unique way. The campaign positions creativity
not as an outcome to perfect, but as a journey where every scribble, colour and
creation becomes part of a child’s own story. With creative tools that work
across multiple surfaces, Fevicryl YUDU ensures that imagination is never
confined by the canvas.

 The campaign also introduces a vibrant
character-led universe that accompanies children on their creative adventures,
making storytelling even more engaging while inspiring them to keep creating
stories wherever their imagination takes them.

The
campaign will be amplified across digital platforms and reflects Pidilite&#039;s
continued commitment to building meaningful connections in the children&#039;s art
and craft category.

With
&#039;Fevicryl YUDU - Banao Apni Stories&#039;, the brand continues to inspire children
to imagine freely and tell stories that are uniquely their own.

UP
plans 22 expressways, 8,000-acre industrial land pipeline; NHAI outlines
technology-driven future of Indian highways.

Mumbai,
9 July 2026: Uttar Pradesh’s ambitious infrastructure-led
growth strategy took centre stage on Day 2 of the 16th RAHSTA Expo, where
senior government officials outlined how expressways, industrial corridors and
technology-driven governance are transforming the state into one of India&#039;s
most attractive investment destinations.

Delivering
the keynote address, Srihari Pratap Shahi, IAS, Additional Chief Executive
Officer, Uttar Pradesh Expressways Industrial Development Authority (UPEIDA),
highlighted the state&#039;s long-term vision of integrating world-class expressways
with industrial development to accelerate manufacturing, logistics and regional
economic growth. He explained how Uttar Pradesh is leveraging its expanding
expressway network to create new industrial ecosystems, improve connectivity
and attract large-scale investments across sectors.

Speaking
on building industrial growth engines in UP, Deeksha Jain, IAS, Additional
Chief Executive Officer, Uttar Pradesh State Industrial Development Authority
(UPSIDA), said the state’s infrastructure push is backed by strong
manufacturing growth and investor-friendly policies.

“UP
is witnessing nearly 15 per cent annual growth in manufacturing, while exports
continue to expand steadily. Infrastructure has become the biggest catalyst
behind this transformation,” she said.

She
highlighted that Uttar Pradesh now has 22 expressways under various stages of
planning and development, with nine already operational, alongside five
international airports, dedicated freight corridors, an extensive industrial
land bank and one of India’s largest MSME ecosystems.

Emphasising
UPSIDA’s role in supporting industrialisation, Jain said the authority has
developed 167 industrial areas across the state, has over 5,000 acres of
readily allottable land, and is creating an 8,000-acre pipeline for future
industrial development. She noted that UPSIDA is adopting EPC-based execution
models, digital project monitoring, transparent online land allotment systems,
third-party quality audits, drone-based monitoring and sustainable
infrastructure practices to improve project delivery.

She
also highlighted the state’s focus on sector-specific industrial clusters,
including automobile manufacturing, pharmaceuticals, logistics and advanced
manufacturing, supported by plug-and-play infrastructure and investor
facilitation through single-window clearance systems.

Calling
for closer collaboration between government and industry, Jain said Uttar
Pradesh is committed to creating transparent, technology-enabled systems that
make investments faster, easier and more efficient.

Organised
by ASAPP Info Global Group, RAHSTA Expo, Asia’s largest road exhibition,
will host its 17th edition on May 20-22, 2027, in Mumbai.
Expressing satisfaction over the completion of the expo, Pratap Padode,
Founder, ASAPP Info Global Group, said, “We have been able to bring diverse
solutions with products, technologies, materials and equipment for the road
ecosystem and our 30-year experience in the sector and the relationships with
contractors has been one the key success factors in delivering returns for our
exhibitors and sponsors.”

Addressing
the conference, Mridul Dubey, Chief General Manager (Finance), National
Highways Authority of India (NHAI), outlined the next phase of India’s
highway development strategy centred on better planning, asset quality, digital
technologies and innovative financing.

He
said NHAI’s priorities for 2026-27 include 4,000 km of project awards and 5,000
km of highway construction, supported by comprehensive project preparation,
digital planning tools and integrated infrastructure development under the PM
Gati Shakti framework.

Dubey
noted that India’s highway sector is increasingly adopting advanced
technologies such as drone surveys, AI-enabled traffic management systems,
digital inspections and Multi Lane Free Flow (MLFF) tolling to improve
efficiency and user experience. He added that FASTag has already reduced
average toll waiting time by nearly 90 per cent while generating valuable
mobility data for infrastructure planning.

Highlighting
the financing strategy for future highway expansion, Dubey said NHAI has
successfully leveraged asset monetisation through Toll-Operate-Transfer (TOT)
projects, Infrastructure Investment Trusts (InvITs) and project-specific
financing models, enabling capital recycling for new highway development.

The
discussions during the conference reinforced the importance of integrating
highways, industrial corridors, logistics infrastructure and digital
technologies to create faster, safer and more sustainable transportation
networks while strengthening India’s manufacturing competitiveness.

The
second day of RAHSTA Expo brought together policymakers, infrastructure
developers, consultants, contractors, technology providers and industry leaders
to deliberate on the next phase of India’s road and industrial infrastructure
growth, with Uttar Pradesh emerging as one of the key examples of
infrastructure-driven economic transformation.

<title>Roots of Change: How Mustafa Yusufali Gom Planted a Revolution at the Buddha Peace Awards</title>
<link>https://en.newsbolt.in/roots-of-change-how-mustafa-yusufali-gom-planted-a-revolution-at-the-buddha-peace-awards</link>
<guid>https://en.newsbolt.in/roots-of-change-how-mustafa-yusufali-gom-planted-a-revolution-at-the-buddha-peace-awards</guid>
<description><![CDATA[ Some people win awards.
Mustafa Yusufali Gom
wins hearts and wakes up minds.

The Biswa Bangla
Convention Centre in Kolkata wasn’t just filled with dignitaries last week. It
was filled with purpose. The hall at Biswa Bangla Convention Centre, Kolkata
wasn’t silent because of protocol. It was silent because every word mattered.

 

At the International
Buddha Peace Award felicitation ceremony, organized by the Maitry Peace
Foundation under President Surajit Barua, leaders gathered not just
to honor peace, but to define it for a new generation. With Hon’ble Minister
Mr. Dilip Ghosh, Government of West Bengal, as guest of honor, the evening
was already powerful.

 

Then Mustafa
Yusufali Gom took the stage.

 

Invited for his
tireless work in environmental sustainability, Mustafa didn’t deliver a speech.
He delivered a wake-up call. His theme “Saving the Earth through Local Tree
Plantation” stripped away excuses and global abstractions. His message was
simple, urgent, and unstoppable: The fight against climate change isn’t in
conference rooms. It’s in your colony, your street, your soil.

 

He spoke of peace not
as the absence of war, but as the presence of green. Of shade for children. Of
clean air for elders. Of responsibility for all of us. The room didn’t just
clap — it committed.

 

When Mr. Dilip Ghosh
honored him with the International Buddha Peace Award, it was more than
recognition. It was confirmation that real change-makers don’t wait for policy.
They pick up a sapling.

 

As Surajit Barua put
it: “Mustafa doesn’t preach sustainability. He lives it. And today, he made
all of us want to live it too.”

 

One
man. One message. Millions of possible trees. The revolution won’t be televised
— it’ll be planted. And leading it is Mustafa Yusufali Gom, Founder of Care Taker.
Will you join him? ]]></description>

<title>From Start up to Unicorn Brands Perfect Partner : Birth Marque’s AI Growth Success Journey</title>
<link>https://en.newsbolt.in/from-start-up-to-unicorn-brands-perfect-partner-birth-marques-ai-growth-success-journey</link>

<description><![CDATA[ Chennai,
9th July 2026: Recognition in the branding industry is not
measured solely by awards, it is earned through consistent innovation,
measurable business impact, and the ability to shape the future of marketing.
Birth Marque has steadily built this reputation by introducing pioneering
branding concepts, embracing emerging technologies ahead of the curve, and
helping businesses navigate an increasingly AI-driven marketplace.

Today,
Birth Marque stands as one of
India&#039;s emerging AI-powered
branding and digital transformation agencies,
and its growing recognition as a Super Brand Partner in AI reflects a
significant milestone in its journey of technology-led brand innovation. Guided
by founder Shailendra Shivakumar and Partner Varsha Sanjay, the Chennai-based
agency has transformed itself from a creative branding consultancy into an
integrated AI marketing automation Company in Chennai,
and digital intelligence company serving more than 1,200 clients across diverse
industries.

Over
the past decade and a half, Birth Marque has consistently demonstrated that
successful branding is no longer driven by advertising alone. Modern brands
require Artificial Intelligence, predictive analytics, automation, immersive
customer experiences, intelligent content creation, and data-driven
decision-making. Recognising this transformation early, the agency invested in
building AI-powered capabilities that enhance every stage of the customer
journey from market research and brand positioning to campaign optimisation,
lead generation, customer engagement, and business intelligence.

This
forward-thinking approach has enabled Birth Marque to create several
category-defining initiatives that distinguish it within India&#039;s branding
ecosystem. The agency has successfully delivered India&#039;s First Digital Pongal
campaign for the logistics sector, India&#039;s First Creative Real Estate Campaign,
India&#039;s First NFT-powered CSR initiative, India&#039;s First Digital Rehabilitation
Pongal programme, India&#039;s First Metaverse-based launch campaign for the
transport and logistics industry, India&#039;s First AI-integrated auction property
marketplace, AI-enabled IoT marketing initiatives, and immersive technology
experiences that combine Artificial Intelligence, Web3, IoT, and Metaverse
platforms. These projects illustrate the company&#039;s ability to anticipate future
marketing trends and convert emerging technologies into competitive business
advantages.

Beyond
innovation, Birth Marque&#039;s success lies in its integrated service model.
Businesses today increasingly seek partners capable of delivering end-to-end AI
transformation rather than isolated marketing campaigns. The agency&#039;s
comprehensive portfolio includes AI-powered lead generation, AI marketing
automation, AI SEO and AEO services, AI consulting and implementation,
enterprise intelligence solutions, AI-powered CRM and WhatsApp automation,
performance marketing, public relations, digital transformation, branding
strategy, custom software development, and Web3 solutions. This integrated
capability positions Birth Marque among the best AI agencies in Chennai and
strengthens its reputation as one of the top digital marketing agencies in India
serving AI-first enterprises.

The
company&#039;s growth also reflects a broader shift occurring across the Indian
business landscape. Organisations evaluating the top AI agencies in India or
searching for AI development services in Chennai increasingly prioritise
agencies that understand both technology and business strategy. Birth Marque
addresses this need by combining creative excellence with measurable commercial
outcomes. Every engagement is designed to improve brand visibility, customer
acquisition, operational efficiency, and long-term business growth through
intelligent automation and strategic innovation.

Founder
Shailendra Shivakumar , Indian branding Guru
believes that Artificial Intelligence should enhance creativity rather than
replace it. This philosophy has shaped Birth Marque&#039;s
evolution into a company where technology serves as a strategic enabler for
stronger storytelling, better customer experiences, and smarter business
decisions. As AI continues to redefine branding, marketing, and enterprise
growth, the agency remains committed to building future-ready solutions that
empower businesses to stay competitive in rapidly evolving markets.

Recognition
as a Super Brand Partner in AI  therefore represents more than an industry
milestone, it symbolises Birth Marque&#039;s aim at innovation, leadership, and
continuous transformation. By blending human creativity with Artificial
Intelligence, automation, and strategic insight, Birth Marque is helping the
future of branding in India while establishing itself as a trusted partner for
businesses seeking intelligent, scalable, and sustainable growth. ]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[ Winners include GHV Infra Projects, Ceigall, Welspun, L&amp;T, Rajpath
Infracon, Dineshchandra R Agrawal Infracon, J Kumar Infraprojects among road
builders. OEMs like Tata Hitachi, Dynapac, Terex Powerscreen, Escorts Kubota
and other product manufacturers like Zydex, Tata Steel among others.

Mumbai, 9 July 2026: “Technology is becoming central to highway
development”, stated Shri Ajay Tamta, Union Minister of State for Road
Transport &amp; Highways while presenting RAHSTA Awards to 24 companies at
the RAHSTA Expo on July 8th at Jio World Convention Centre,
Mumbai. Some winners included Mhari Sadak from Haryana Public Works
Department, Border Roads Organisation, GHV Infra Projects, Ceigall, Welspun,
L&amp;T, Rajpath Infracon, Dineshchandra R Agrawal Infracon, J Kumar
Infraprojects among road builders. OEMs like Tata Hitachi, Dynapac, Terex
Powerscreen, Escorts Kubota and other product manufacturers like Zydex, Tata
Steel among others. 

RAHSTA Awards were held on the sidelines of 16th RAHSTA
Expo where exhibitors include Terex, Caterpillar, Tata Hitachi, Dynapac,
Liugong, Alltech, SRMB, Elegant, Electrotherm, Tata Steel, Jindal Steel,
Maccaferri, UP Invest, MMRDA, Monte Carlo, Zydex and many more.

Emphasising priorities set for the government, the minister Ajay Tamta
stated that “Technology is becoming central to highway development. However,
not all technologies are suitable for all ecosystems. Technologies like TBM
used by MMRDA in Mumbai cannot be used in fragile terrains and hilly regions.
There we must use blasting which also needs to be tempered to protect the
ecology.”

Bidur Kant Jha, Director, New Technology for Highway Development,
Ministry of Road Transport &amp; Highways,
highlighted how innovation and emerging technologies are transforming the way
India’s highways are designed, built and managed, making them safer, smarter
and more resilient.

Highlighting the Ministry’s approach to innovation, Jha said MoRTH has
established a structured framework for adopting proven technologies,
alternative materials and innovative designs. New technologies must obtain
Indian Roads Congress (IRC) accreditation and demonstrate their performance
through pilot projects before wider implementation.

Founder, FIRST Construction Council, Pratap Padode,
expressed that, “What has been most satisfying for us is the discovery of
outstanding work being done across the country. Many companies, some well-known
and some quietly doing exceptional work, have demonstrated remarkable
achievements in execution, technology, innovation, materials, safety,
sustainability and project delivery.” He also informed that RAHSTA Expo would
be held on May 20-22 in 2027.

The discussions reinforced a common message: creating safer roads
requires more than infrastructure investment—it demands visionary leadership,
engineering excellence and continuous innovation. It was this spirit that the
RAHSTA Awards 2026 sought to recognise.

Among the evening’s highest honours were the Special Recognition
Awards, presented to 

Dr. Sanjay Mukherjee (IAS), Metropolitan Commissioner, Mumbai
Metropolitan Region Development Authority (MMRDA), for
his exemplary leadership in advancing the underground tunnel network across the
Mumbai Metropolitan Region (MMR). His leadership has helped shape projects that
combine rapid development with sustainable and people-centric planning,
demonstrating how effective governance can drive safer infrastructure.

Dr. Mukherjee underscored the importance of integrated urban planning
and multimodal mobility, noting that Mumbai&#039;s infrastructure success has been
driven by coordinated efforts across engineering, planning and execution teams.
He highlighted the city&#039;s historic underground water and sewerage network, the
role of technology in improving civic infrastructure, and the need to integrate
roads with metro and bus systems to create seamless urban mobility.

<description><![CDATA[ Supported
by the global performance brand, the ultra-endurance athlete completes a
remarkable 4200+ kilometre journey spanning mountains, highways, cities, and
changing terrains in 67 days.

Mumbai :  Skechers, The Comfort Technology Company®,
proudly celebrates the successful completion of Project K2K as ultra-endurance
athlete Kartik Joshi concluded his historic run from Kargil to Kanyakumari,
covering 4200+ kilometres across India in 67 days.

The
journey, which began at the iconic Kargil War Memorial and culminated at the
southern tip of the country in Kanyakumari, stands among India&#039;s most ambitious
long-distance running feats. Over the course of the challenge, Kartik traversed
diverse terrains and climatic conditions, navigating high-altitude mountain
roads, highways, urban landscapes and changing weather patterns while pushing
the limits of physical and mental endurance.

Reflecting
on the completion of the challenge, Kartik Joshi said,&quot;Crossing
the finish line in Kanyakumari is a moment that is difficult to put into words.
This journey tested me every single day. From the mountains of Kargil to the
roads leading into Kanyakumari, every kilometre demanded resilience and belief.
Over thousands of kilometres and changing terrains, my Skechers AERO Series
shoes became an integral part of the journey, providing the comfort, cushioning
and support I needed to keep moving forward day after day. What kept me going
was also the encouragement I received from people across the country and the
purpose behind this run. Completing K2K is a dream realised, and I am grateful
to Skechers for standing beside me throughout this incredible experience.&quot;



For
the entire expedition, Kartik ran in Skechers Performance footwear, primarily
in the Skechers AERO Burst® and Skechers AERO Spark®, relying on the brand&#039;s
innovative running technology as he undertook one of the most demanding
endurance challenges attempted in the country.

The
completion of Project K2K marks a significant milestone for India&#039;s growing
endurance sports ecosystem and serves as a powerful reminder of the limitless
potential of human determination. Along the route, Kartik connected with
runners, fitness enthusiasts and local communities across multiple cities,
inspiring thousands through his unwavering commitment to the challenge.

Commenting
on the achievement, Rahul Vira, CEO, Skechers South Asia Pvt. Ltd.,
said, &quot;Kartik&#039;s completion of the Kargil-to-Kanyakumari run is a
phenomenal achievement and a powerful example of what can be accomplished through
perseverance, discipline and an unwavering mindset. At Skechers, we are
passionate about supporting athletes who challenge convention and push
boundaries, and Kartik&#039;s journey embodies those values perfectly. We are
equally proud that throughout this extraordinary challenge, he relied on our
Skechers AERO Series running footwear, which are designed to deliver
lightweight cushioning, responsiveness and comfort over long distances. We
believe his achievement will inspire countless individuals to embrace running
and pursue their own goals, no matter how ambitious they may seem.&quot;

Born
and raised in Indore, Kartik Joshi has established himself as one of India&#039;s
emerging endurance athletes through his dedication to long-distance running and
his ability to take on extreme physical challenges. The successful completion
of Project K2K further cements his position among a new generation of Indian
runners redefining the possibilities of endurance sport in the country.

Through
Project K2K, Skechers reinforced its commitment to India&#039;s growing running
culture by supporting grassroots communities and promoting participation in
fitness and endurance sports. The journey celebrated resilience, perseverance
and the power of movement while demonstrating what athletes can achieve with

<title>Four Seasons Hotel Mumbai Unveils ‘Constellar’, the Name and Design Story Behind its 10,000&#45;Square&#45;Foot Ballroom Facility</title>
<link>https://en.newsbolt.in/four-seasons-hotel-mumbai-unveils-constellar-the-name-and-design-story-behind-its-10000-square-foot-ballroom-facility</link>
<guid>https://en.newsbolt.in/four-seasons-hotel-mumbai-unveils-constellar-the-name-and-design-story-behind-its-10000-square-foot-ballroom-facility</guid>
<description><![CDATA[ Four
Seasons Hotel Mumbai unveils ‘Constellar’, the official name and
identity of its expansive 10,000-square-foot ballroom facility. This reveal
marks a defining moment for the space, bringing together design, symbolism, and
a distinct narrative that reflects the hotel’s architectural language and its
legacy of refined hospitality.

Introduced
earlier this year, the ballroom has already emerged as one of Mumbai’s most
sophisticated and versatile venues for weddings, celebrations, and corporate
gatherings. With the unveiling of ‘Constellar’, the space now carries a name
and visual identity that deepen its presence and meaning .

The
Design Story Behind Constellar

The
name ‘Constellar’ is inspired by constellations, evoking a sense of connection
and timeless beauty. The logo translates this inspiration into a refined visual
form. At its core, the four-circle icon draws from the ballroom’s architectural
detailing, particularly the repeated circular patterns seen at its grand
entrance. These circles create a harmonious and elegant motif, bridging
interior design with visual identity. A subtle star formed between the shapes
reflects the idea of constellations in the night sky, reinforcing the name. The
four circles also reference the Four Seasons legacy, embedding the brand’s
essence into the design itself. The name and logo position ‘Constellar’ as a
space where moments align and celebrations come together with effortless grace.

“Constellar,
inspired by constellations, redefines how we envision celebrations coming
together with intention, beauty, and meaning. With Constellar, we have given
our ballroom a distinct character rooted in contemporary design, advanced
technology, culinary craftsmanship, and a passionate team. It is ultimately
brought to life by our esteemed guests, who make each celebration unique and
memorable,” shares Nitesh Gandhi, General Manager, Four Seasons Hotels
Mumbai

A
Ballroom Designed for Grand Celebrations

‘Constellar’
reflects the many elements that come together to create something truly
extraordinary. Each star, formed through the interplay of design, represents
what makes the space distinctive. Located in the heart of Worli, the
10,000-square-foot event facility combines scale with elegance, beginning with
a 500-square-foot private arrival foyer that leads into a 1,300-square-foot
pre-function area, and culminating in a 7,000-square-foot banqueting space
anchored by a 5,700-square-foot pillarless hall with a 19-foot ceiling. Modern
and contemporary interiors set a sophisticated tone, while a 1,000-square-foot
LED wall, digital signage, and modular configurations introduce advanced
technology and creative flexibility. Seamless connectivity to The Great Room
ensures sleek transitions across weddings, soirées, and large-scale launches.

Every
event is shaped by Four Season’s signature approach to personalised service,
where dedicated specialists and meticulous details ensure each celebration
feels intimate and memorable. With ‘Constellar’, this vision is brought to life
through refined design and architecture, complemented by a deeper sense of
meaning.

<description><![CDATA[  

Mumbai,
July 08, 2026: Liebherr Appliances India brought together
its key distributor partners from across the country at its Annual Partner
Meet, reaffirming its long-term confidence in India&#039;s rapidly evolving premium
refrigeration market. The annual gathering served as a strategic platform to
exchange market insights, strengthen partnerships, and unveil the company&#039;s
innovation roadmap as it continues to shape the future of premium refrigeration
in India.

The
event brought together key distributor partners from across India in the
presence of Mr. Steffen Nagel, Managing Director – Sales &amp; Marketing,
Appliance Division, Mr. Roman Schaefer, Head of Business Area India, Appliance
Division, and Mr. Kapil Agarwal, Managing Director – Sales, Liebherr Appliances
India.

Commenting
on the occasion, Mr. Steffen Nagel, Managing Director – Sales &amp; Marketing,
Appliance Division, Liebherr, said, &quot;India continues to be one of the most
exciting growth markets for premium refrigeration. As consumer expectations
evolve beyond functionality towards design, freshness and efficient technology,
we remain committed to delivering innovations that enhance everyday living. Our
distributor partners play a pivotal role in bringing these innovations closer
to consumers, and we value their continued trust and collaboration as we
strengthen Liebherr&#039;s presence in India.&quot;

Mr.
Kapil Agarwal, Managing Director – Sales, Liebherr Appliances India, added,
&quot;India&#039;s refrigeration market is entering an exciting phase of
transformation, driven by changing lifestyles, premium housing and increasing
consumer aspirations. Our focus remains on introducing meaningful innovations
that address evolving household needs while creating long-term value for our
channel partners. The Annual Distributor Meet enables us to align on this
shared vision and collectively drive the next phase of growth.&quot;

Despite
a challenging start to 2026 for the appliance industry, Liebherr Appliances
India has remained focused on strengthening its portfolio through meaningful
innovations rooted in German engineering, purposeful innovations and an
in-depth understanding of Indian consumer lifestyles.

Leading
this innovation journey is the FreshBreeze range, a breakthrough technology
that redefines freshness in refrigeration. Going beyond conventional cooling,
FreshBreeze releases a fine, cool mist into the vegetable compartment to
maintain optimal humidity, helping leafy vegetables and fruits retain their
natural moisture, texture and freshness for significantly longer. Now available
across 316L, 380L, 400L and 420L capacities.

Complementing
FreshBreeze is a suite of consumer-centric innovations designed specifically
for Indian households. In the past, innovations like Handsfree Opening feature
in Direct Cool refrigerators, allowing users to open the refrigerator
effortlessly using a foot pedal when their hands are occupied; Hot to Cool
technology in double-door models, enabling freshly boiled milk to be safely
stored inside the refrigerator while delivering up to three times faster
cooling; and ergonomically engineered lever handles that make opening even
heavily loaded refrigerator doors remarkably effortless. Together, these
innovations reflect Liebherr&#039;s commitment to making everyday living more at
ease and efficient through thoughtful engineering.

The
company has also launched 380L and 400L refrigerators. Volumes to cater to a
wider market’s needs, four newly curated premium finishes to complement
contemporary kitchen interiors.

The
innovation roadmap received an encouraging response from the distributor
community, reinforcing confidence in Liebherr Appliances India&#039;s long-term
strategy and continued focus on delivering differentiated premium refrigeration
solutions tailored to the evolving needs of Indian consumers.

While
sharing an experience of this meet, distributor partner said, &quot;The Annual
Distributor Meet offered valuable insights into Liebherr Appliances India&#039;s
long-term vision for the Indian market. FreshBreeze is a truly differentiated
innovation; it solves the problems of most households that store leafy
vegetables, while the introduction of the new 380L and 400L refrigerator
volumes enables us to serve a much wider customer base. These innovations
strengthen our confidence in the brand and create exciting opportunities for
growth in our region.&quot;

excellence and strong channel partnerships. Backed by an expanding portfolio of

<description><![CDATA[ Speciality Restaurants Limited, one of
India’s most established hospitality groups and the company behind iconic
brands such as Mainland China, Oh! Calcutta and Asia Kitchen by Mainland China,
announces the launch of Gong in Bandra, its latest premium dining destination
in Mumbai.

The launch of Gong marks a strategic new
chapter for Speciality Restaurants Limited as it continues to evolve its
portfolio through contemporary, innovation-led formats designed for the next
generation of diners. Rooted in progressive Pan Asian cuisine, immersive
interiors, and elevated hospitality, Gong reflects the group’s forward-looking
approach while staying anchored in the strong operational foundations and
culinary legacy that have defined the company for decades.

From Avik Chatterjee, Director &amp; CEO
- Speciality Restaurants Limited, &quot;Gong represents the future of
hospitality experiences where food, design, culture, emotion and sound come
together seamlessly. To me, hospitality has never been just about the plate,
it&#039;s about how a space makes you feel the moment you walk in, and that
philosophy has shaped everything we&#039;ve built at Speciality Restaurants over the
years. Today&#039;s diners are looking for more than a meal, they are looking for
energy, identity and memorable experiences. With Gong, we wanted to build a
concept that feels globally relevant yet deeply connected to Mumbai&#039;s dynamic
dining culture. It is a strong reflection of how we see the next phase of
growth for Speciality Restaurants Limited, through innovation, relevance and
long-term brand building.&quot; 

Speciality Restaurants Limited: A Legacy Reinventing
for the Future

With a strong legacy in Indian
hospitality, Speciality Restaurants Limited has built some of the country’s
most recognisable restaurant brands across multiple dining formats. From
pioneering premium Chinese dining with Mainland China to celebrating regional
Indian cuisine through Oh! Calcutta, the company has consistently shaped
consumer dining preferences through quality, consistency and category leadership.

Now, with Gong, the group enters a new
phase focused on design-led concepts, modern consumer behaviour, and globally
benchmarked dining experiences.

Gong: A New Benchmark in Premium Pan Asian Dining

Located in the heart of Bandra, Gong has
been envisioned as a high-energy yet refined Pan Asian dining destination where
cuisine, design and atmosphere come together seamlessly. Designed by Sumessh
Menon Associates and inspired by the philosophy of Asian [Sound] Soul,
the restaurant features a contemporary setting with brass and bronze accents,
earthy textures, bespoke lighting, and distinct indoor and outdoor spaces
tailored for Mumbai’s premium dining audience.



The culinary programme is led by Chef
Sahil Singh, Chief of Culinary &amp; Operations – Innovation &amp; New Formats
at Speciality Restaurants Limited. With experience across India and
international markets, Chef Sahil brings a globally informed perspective
focused on progressive Pan Asian cuisine, bold flavours, clean execution, and a
modern guest-centric sensibility.

Strategic Growth Through New Formats

The launch of Gong highlights Speciality
Restaurants Limited&#039;s continued investment in future-ready hospitality concepts
under the leadership of Avik Chatterjee. Gong also marks a new, efficient
format for the company, designed for higher APC, optimised space and faster
table turnarounds, making it a scalable model for the future. As changing
consumer behaviour drives demand for experiential dining, the company is
focused on building formats that combine culinary credibility, strong brand
identity and scalable long-term potential.

With an existing portfolio that includes
Mainland China, Oh! Calcutta, Asia Kitchen by Mainland China, Sigree,
Hoppipola, Episode One, Sweet Bengal, Walters and other concepts across India
and international markets, the company remains uniquely positioned to serve
multiple audience segments while expanding into new categories.

A Vision for the Next Era of Dining

Gong has been created for the modern
diner who values experience as much as cuisine. With its combination of
progressive Pan Asian influences, thoughtful design and premium hospitality,
the restaurant signals the direction in which Speciality Restaurants Limited
sees the future of urban dining in India.

<title>Mumbai Witnesses a Night of Honour: Mustafa Yusufali Gom Receives Vagdhara Samman 2026 from Telangana Governor</title>
<link>https://en.newsbolt.in/mumbai-witnesses-a-night-of-honour-mustafa-yusufali-gom-receives-vagdhara-samman-2026-from-telangana-governor</link>
<guid>https://en.newsbolt.in/mumbai-witnesses-a-night-of-honour-mustafa-yusufali-gom-receives-vagdhara-samman-2026-from-telangana-governor</guid>
<description><![CDATA[  

When service meets
vision, the nation takes notice and Mumbai felt that pulse last evening at the
Mukti Auditorium, Andheri West, as social worker and author Mustafa Yusufali Gom was
conferred the prestigious Vagdhara Samman 2026 by His Excellency Shri
Shiv Pratap Shukla, Governor of Telangana.

 

A
Welcome Fit for Changemakers

The evening opened with
ceremony and warmth. Governor Shukla was received at the gates by a reception
committee of Acharya Pawan Tripathi, media stalwart Upendra Rai, and Mustafa
Yusufali Gom himself — a powerful frame of governance, media, and grassroots
service standing together.

 

Words
That Shape a Nation

On stage, the moment
turned literary. Mr. Gom presented the Governor with his acclaimed book “Narendra Modi Samvad: Naye
Bharat Ka Sankalp”. The exchange wasn’t just symbolic it was a
passing of ideas. The Governor lauded the work for capturing the spirit of a
transforming India, drawing applause from the packed hall of intellectuals and
citizens.

 

The
Honour That Mattered

The high point came as
Governor Shukla presented the Vagdhara Samman 2026 to Mr. Mustafa
Yusufali Gom. The award celebrates relentless community service, social
upliftment, and an unwavering commitment to national progress. For years, Gom’s
welfare initiatives have touched lives across Mumbai, and this honour cements
his role as a bridge between compassion and action.

 

In his thank-you note,
Mr. Gom credited Dr. Vageesh Saraswat, President of Vagdhara, and the
management team for orchestrating an event that was equal parts grand and
meaningful.

 

Power,
Purpose, and People All Under One Roof

The auditorium hosted a
galaxy of voices shaping India’s narrative:

Shri
Shiv Pratap Shukla – Hon’ble Governor, Telangana

Acharya
Pawan Tripathi – Treasurer, Shri Siddhivinayak Temple Trust
&amp; Gen Sec, BJP Mumbai

Shri
Upendra Rai – CMD &amp; Editor-in-Chief, Bharat Express
News Network

Dr.
Vageesh Saraswat – President, Vagdhara

Adv.
Bhargav Tiwari – General Secretary, Vagdhara

 

Why
This Matters

The Vagdhara Samman
isn’t just an award. It’s a spotlight on those who choose service over self. With
this recognition, Mustafa Yusufali Gom emerges not only as a leading voice in
Mumbai’s social and literary circles, but as a call to action for India’s youth
— to write, to serve, to build.

 

In a city that never
sleeps, last night Mumbai paused — to honour a man who works while others
dream.

<title>Arunkumar Raman&amp;apos;s Hotel Growth Hub Leads India&amp;apos;s AI&#45;Powered Hotel Growth Summit&#45; IGNITE 2026</title>

<description><![CDATA[ Chennai
| July 2026: India&#039;s hospitality industry is entering a new
era.

Artificial
Intelligence, Google Search, changing traveller behaviour, and increasing
dependence on Online Travel Agencies (OTAs) are redefining how hotels attract
guests and grow their business. While large hotel brands continue to invest
heavily in technology and digital marketing, thousands of independent hotels
are searching for practical ways to remain competitive.

To
address this growing need, Hotel Growth Hub,
one of India&#039;s fastest-growing learning communities for hotel owners, is
bringing together hospitality leaders, hotel owners and innovators from across
the country at Hotel Growth Summit – IGNITE 2026,
to be held on 20–21 July 2026 at Trident Chennai.

The
summit is expected to welcome hotel owners, entrepreneurs, general managers and
hospitality professionals representing hotels from different parts of India.
Unlike conventional hospitality conferences that primarily focus on operations,
IGNITE 2026 has been designed to help hotel owners build future-ready
businesses through technology, Artificial Intelligence, digital marketing,
guest experience, automation, reputation management and direct booking
strategies.

The
event will feature successful hotel owners from within the Hotel Growth Hub
community sharing practical case studies, proven growth strategies and real
business transformations that other hoteliers can implement in their own
properties.

Speaking
about the vision behind the summit, Arunkumar Raman,
Founder of Hotel Growth Hub and Hotel Growth Coach, said:

&quot;India has some of
the world&#039;s most passionate hotel owners. But passion alone is no longer
enough. Hotels need visibility, technology, automation and a strong direct
booking ecosystem to succeed. Our mission is to help independent hotel owners
build businesses that are future-ready, profitable and less dependent on
third-party platforms.&quot;

Founded
with a mission to empower 100,000 hotel owners, Hotel Growth Hub has
grown into a collaborative learning community where hospitality professionals
share knowledge, implement modern growth systems and support one another in
adapting to the rapidly evolving hospitality landscape.

Members
of the community are already implementing strategies such as improving Google
Business Profile visibility, increasing guest reviews, creating AI-generated
marketing content, automating guest communication, strengthening their online
reputation and generating more direct enquiries.

IGNITE
2026 will also serve as a platform for networking, collaboration and
recognition, celebrating hotel owners who are embracing innovation and leading
change within the hospitality industry.

As
India&#039;s tourism sector continues to grow, initiatives such as Hotel Growth
Summit are helping independent hotels embrace digital transformation and
prepare for the future of hospitality.

Registrations
for the summit are currently open for Hotel Growth Hub community members.

About Hotel Growth Hub

Hotel
Growth Hub is a leading learning community dedicated to empowering independent
hotel owners across India. Founded by Hotel Growth Coach Arunkumar Raman,
the community helps hotels increase visibility, improve Google rankings,
generate direct bookings, implement AI-powered marketing, automate sales
processes and build sustainable long-term growth through practical education,
coaching and collaboration.

Raman is a Hotel Growth Coach, hospitality
entrepreneur, and Founder of Hotel Growth Hub. With over 25 years of
experience in the hotel industry across India and the Middle East, he is on a

<title>US Staffing Firm PTP Introduces Rebecca AI in India to solve hiring challenges</title>
<link>https://en.newsbolt.in/us-staffing-firm-ptp-introduces-rebecca-ai-in-india-to-solve-hiring-challenges</link>
<guid>https://en.newsbolt.in/us-staffing-firm-ptp-introduces-rebecca-ai-in-india-to-solve-hiring-challenges</guid>
<description><![CDATA[  

Peterson Technology Partners (PTP), a
Chicago staffing firm with more than three decades of experience supporting
employers across the globe, has launched an AI recruitment agent in India,
Rebecca AI following successful deployments with U.S. clients. Rebecca AI, PTP’s all-star AI
recruiter, helps hiring teams automate first-round interviews, applicant
evaluation, and reporting at scale. PTP has launched their agent to India now,
providing businesses, IT staffing agencies and recruiting agencies with a
method to compress first-round screening from many weeks down to one single
day.

Three
Decades of Hiring Experience, One Agent to Change It

Founded
in 1997 by CEO Nick Shah, Peterson Technology Partners (PTP) has spent nearly
three decades connecting technology talent with Fortune 100 companies in
Chicago and across the United States. Over that time, the company has also
expanded its recruiting and consulting footprint globally, supporting clients
and hiring programs across the world. That broader exposure has given PTP
firsthand experience with the scale, urgency, and volume-driven complexity that
define hiring in markets like India.

Today,
job postings often receive between 400-600 applications within 24 hours. The
time to fill an open position can vary from 30-60 days. India is experiencing
record levels of people applying for jobs in the IT sector due to the sheer
size of the Indian IT workforce, making them able to handle volumes that most other
job markets cannot. Recruiters often find themselves hitting a wall while
manually processing large volumes of applications; therefore, the queue
continues to increase without end.



To
solve these challenges, PTP built Rebecca AI, its AI recruiting platform shaped
by 30 years of talent acquisition experience, with two core workstreams:
AI-generated video interviews customized to suit each candidate, and automated
hiring processes for candidate outreach, text message follow-ups,
pre-qualifying phone calls, and video interviews with selected candidates. It
enables companies to have a timely and uniform experience from first touch to
deemed categories of hires.

“Rebecca
AI is most effective when it’s part of a broader AI strategy and integrated
tech stack that automates and improves hiring workflows,” said Nick Shah, CEO
and founder of Peterson Technology Partners. “When AI conducts video interviews
on your behalf, you’re no longer limited to evaluating a paper resume. You are
seeing and hearing from the individual about their work experience in their own
words. When you get results of communication skills, presentation skills,
technical skills, or strengths and weaknesses, the data adds value over the
traditional resume format. AI will not be replacing humans but will allow you
to focus on the 20% of daily activity that provides 80% of results,” said Nick.

Rebecca
AI Recruiting Agent Simplifies First-Round Hiring Workflows

Rebecca
is a voice AI-powered interview tool that offers a personalized solution to help
automate and perform interviews at scale. When an individual applies for a
position, the system will automatically create a unique, customized interview
tailored to the job description and applicant&#039;s resume. Once the interview has
been created, Rebecca AI sends the applicant an individual interview link that
allows them to conduct the interview on their own time, rather than having to
work with a recruiter. 

During
the interview process, Rebecca AI utilizes conversations as the primary format
of conducting interviews and adjusts its follow-up questions on-the-fly, based
on the answers provided by the applicant. Following the conclusion of the
interview process, Rebecca AI creates a report that includes all the data
collected in the interview process. This report includes a score indicating how
well the applicant matches the job position being interviewed for, a full audio
recording of the interview, and a PDF report supplementing the previously
described data.

In
addition to creating personalized interviews, the Rebecca AI can conduct live
coding assessments for technical positions. The platform integrates with more
than 42 ATS systems including Workday, SAP SuccessFactors, Greenhouse, Oracle
Taleo, Lever, Ashby, and Rippling.

The
Data Behind Rebecca AI

Rebecca
AI has processed 11,833 candidates and delivered measurable recruiting
efficiency at scale:

●       
5,096 candidates advanced as qualified 

●       
6,358 candidates screened out 

●       
4,891 candidate phone calls triggered 

●       
2,005 interviews scheduled 

●       
746 interviews completed without a recruiter
present 

Across
other Rebecca AI deployments, the platform has reduced time to hire by up to
80% and costs to hire by up to 60%.

Candidates
who have engaged with Rebecca AI, rate their experience consistently at 4.6 out
of 5 stars and frequently comment on her being very natural and non-intrusive
compared to many of the previous human-led screens. 

Rebecca
AI also addresses one of today’s biggest recruiting challenges: the application
“black hole.” With Rebecca AI, candidates will get timely updates on their
application along with a structured screening process and clear communication
regarding their status. It leads to fewer drop-offs for employers and a more
organized candidate&#039;s pipeline. Candidates can track their progress at every
stage of the hiring pipeline, that creates greater visibility into their
application status while creating a more transparent experience and strengthens
the employer brand.

Built
to Be Trusted

Rebecca
AI is SOC 2, GDPR, CCPA, and ISO 27001 certified. Peterson Technology Partners
also complies with the applicable requirements of India&#039;s Digital Personal Data
Protection (DPDP) Act, ensuring that candidate personal data is collected,
processed, stored, and managed in accordance with India&#039;s evolving privacy and
data protection framework. Every candidate is evaluated against the same
structured rubric, in the same order, without fatigue-driven variation between
a Monday morning and a Friday afternoon. Candidates are informed at the start of
every call that the interviewer is AI, and consent is logged throughout.

About
Peterson Technology Partners

Peterson
Technology Partners LLC (PTP) was founded in 1997 by CEO Nick Shah, who named
the company after Chicago’s historic Peterson Avenue. Since then, PTP has grown

<description><![CDATA[ In the world of high
finance, presence is often confused with prestige. Yet, at GTRi 6.0’s opening
session on the &quot;Financial Architecture of Bihar&quot; in Patna, the most
significant contribution came not from a physical presence, but from a
deliberate, strategic message. Princess Jahanvi Kumari Mewar, a prominent
investor and family office strategist, chose to lend her voice to the discourse
on Bihar’s economic future.

As analyst Aditi Nandan
notes, in the ecosystem of wealth management, a family office does not move on
headlines or hype; it moves on conviction. Unlike the &quot;impatient&quot;
capital of venture funds that chase rapid exits, family office capital is
defined by its long-term horizon. It is institutional in discipline but
personal in its multi-generational scope. When a strategist of Princess Jahnavi
stature chooses to publicly associate with Bihar’s financial narrative, it is
not merely a gesture—it is a calculated signal to the private wealth circles of
India.

Moving Beyond the
&quot;Developmental&quot; Register

For years, the
discourse around Bihar has been trapped in a binary: either purely
developmental (schemes and subsidies) or defensive (justifying what the state
is not). Aditi Nandan highlights that Bihar has long needed a third register:
the language of &quot;investability.&quot;

This transition
involves shifting the focus to balance sheets, sectoral depth, logistics
corridors, and capital markets participation. By participating in this
dialogue, Princess Jahnavi has helped shift the lens from &quot;opportunity
theatre&quot; to &quot;structural analysis.&quot; For an investor whose day job
is to allocate patient capital, Bihar is no longer just a geography to ignore;
it is becoming a territory for long-duration portfolio consideration.

The Power of
Institutional Conviction

Why does this matter?
Because wealth networks are notoriously private and word-of-mouth. A public
endorsement from a figure like Princess Jahanvi Kumari Mewar acts as a
catalyst. It tells other family offices—the most selective, slowest, and
smartest money in the country—that the thesis for Bihar is maturing.

As Aditi Nandan
articulates, this is the difference between a compliment and a commitment of
attention. When patient capital begins to &quot;look east,&quot; it signals
that the structural risks are being mitigated and the foundation for long-term
growth is being laid. The message sent by the Princess Jahnavi in Patna was
clear: Bihar’s financial architecture is no longer a peripheral topic; it is an
emerging reality in the Indian investment landscape.

A New Chapter for Bihar

The audience at GTRi
6.0 witnessed a pivotal moment. By aligning her professional reputation with
Bihar’s growth story, Princess Mewar has provided the state with the most
valuable currency in finance: credibility.

As the narrative
shifts, the question for domestic and global investors is no longer &quot;Why
Bihar?&quot; but rather &quot;Who else is paying attention?&quot; The
groundwork has been laid, the patient money is taking note, and the new
financial story of Bihar is being written not just by bureaucrats, but by those
who understand the value of long-term, durable wealth.

This analysis is rooted
in the perspectives and detailed observations of Aditi Nandan. To explore more

<description><![CDATA[ Tenkasi,
Tamil Nadu : PUTHIYASARAL FOUNDATION, a nonprofit
organization dedicated to inclusive and sustainable community development, has
announced an extensive roadmap of initiatives aimed at improving the lives of
underprivileged and marginalized communities across rural India. Through a
comprehensive approach encompassing rural development, education, healthcare,
yoga, meditation, de-addiction and social welfare, the Foundation seeks to
create long-term socio-economic transformation at the grassroots level.

Operating
from its registered office in Sankarankovil, Tenkasi district, PUTHIYASARAL
FOUNDATION is focused on empowering communities by creating opportunities for
education, livelihood generation, health awareness, and holistic well-being.
The organization is actively working to bridge developmental gaps by
implementing programs that address some of the most pressing challenges faced
by rural populations.

As
part of its rural development and livelihood initiatives, the Foundation is
promoting skill development and vocational training programs for youth, women,
and unemployed individuals. Entrepreneurship development projects, employment
generation efforts, and support for self-help groups are being undertaken to
encourage self-reliance and economic empowerment. The Foundation is also

water, sanitation facilities, housing assistance, road connectivity, and
renewable energy solutions.

Recognizing
the importance of sustainable agriculture in rural prosperity, PUTHIYASARAL

practices, efficient irrigation systems, climate-resilient agriculture, and
modern agricultural technologies. Awareness campaigns on environmental
conservation and natural resource management are also being conducted to

The Foundation is exploring collaborations with educational institutions,
corporate organizations, and public bodies to expand awareness about the benefits
of yoga and meditation for healthier communities.

The
organization is equally committed to social welfare and community development.
Various programs are being implemented to support women, children, senior
citizens, differently-abled individuals, and other vulnerable groups.
Healthcare outreach activities, including free medical camps, health

<title>Pharmed Limited Enters Asia Book of Records with 10,451 Doctors Pledging to Screen and Manage Sarcopenia</title>
<link>https://en.newsbolt.in/pharmed-limited-enters-asia-book-of-records-with-10451-doctors-pledging-to-screen-and-manage-sarcopenia</link>

<description><![CDATA[  

On
this World Sarcopenia Day, observed annually on 4th July, Pharmed Limited, a
leading pharmaceutical company based in Bengaluru, India, has set a new
benchmark in healthcare, earning a place in the Asia Book of Records. As
India&#039;s elderly population grows at an unprecedented pace, the record
recognises an extraordinary commitment from 10,451 doctors to screen and manage
Sarcopenia — the progressive, age-related loss of muscle mass and strength — in
their elderly, chronic disease, and patients post-surgery .

The
record-breaking pledge marks a significant milestone in the company&#039;s efforts
to promote healthy ageing and improve quality of life nationwide. The award was
presented at Pharmed&#039;s corporate office in Bengaluru, with Dr Manohar KN, a
renowned Consultant Physician and Diabetologist from Bangalore, attending as
the guest of honour, alongside the Asia Book of Records team and members of
Pharmed.

On
the importance of early sarcopenia screening, Dr Manohar said, &quot;Sarcopenia
is one of the most under-recognised yet clinically significant conditions
affecting adults, particularly the elderly. While its impact on ageing,
frailty, falls, fractures, and loss of independence is well established, its
pivotal role in metabolic disease is only now coming into sharp focus. Skeletal
muscle is increasingly recognised as an endocrine organ, making muscle health
central to metabolic health. The future of metabolic medicine will extend
beyond controlling blood sugar or body weight to preserving and restoring
muscle mass and strength. Emerging therapies that target muscle health are
likely to transform the management of diabetes, obesity, and other metabolic
disorders.&quot;

&quot;This
record commitment from 10,451 doctors is not just a number; it represents a
collective commitment to the health and independence of our ageing population.
At Pharmed, we believe in driving meaningful change in healthcare. This
initiative reflects our dedication to addressing critical, under-recognised
health issues like sarcopenia and our continued efforts to support muscle
health, healthy ageing, and better recovery — working hand in hand with
healthcare professionals to make a real difference,&quot;
added Kashmiri Lal Kapoor, Director of Operations at Pharmed.

India
is home to one of the world&#039;s fastest-growing elderly populations, and with
this demographic shift comes a rising burden of sarcopenia. According to the
first Indian consensus on sarcopenia, published in 2025, the prevalence of
primary sarcopenia ranges from 14.2% to 39.2% in adults — meaning roughly four
out of 10 adults, and three out of 100 young adults, are affected. Ageing,
combined with India&#039;s high prevalence of diabetes, a sedentary lifestyle,
chronic inflammation, and poor nutritional status, places millions at risk of
significant muscle loss, which can lead to falls, prolonged hospital stays,
poorer surgical outcomes, and reduced quality of life. With the consensus
recommending screening for all patients with comorbidities, monitoring every
three to six months depending on severity, and resistance training combined
with oral nutritional supplementation to prevent and manage the condition,
early intervention has become an urgent public health priority.

Pharmed
is leading the way in India — supporting effective sarcopenia management
through evidence-based, quality nutritional supplementation and patient
education initiatives such as its Care for Muscles programme, while
collaborating with doctors to promote the right screening techniques,
sarcopenia awareness, exercise modules, and more. This recognition marks an
important milestone in its mission. By securing commitments from so many
doctors, Pharmed aims to make muscle health screening a routine part of care
for elderly, diabetic, and post-surgical patients, and to create a significant
impact on healthy ageing across the country. ]]></description>

<title>KARAM Safety Crosses 800 PPE Retail Stores, Targets Presence in 2 Lakh Hardware and Paint Shops Across India</title>

<description><![CDATA[ Expanding
access to certified PPE across Tier 2 and Tier 3 markets while advancing
workplace safety awareness nationwide

New
Delhi, 07 July, 2026: KARAM Safety,
a global leader in personal protective equipment (PPE) and fall protection
solutions, has achieved a significant milestone by expanding its retail
footprint to over 800 stores across India. Building on this momentum, the
company has announced plans to expand its reach to over 2 lakh hardware and
paint shops nationwide, further strengthening access to certified workplace
safety products across urban, semi-urban, and rural markets.

Since
launching its Retail Division in 2021, KARAM Safety has steadily expanded its
presence nationwide, with a strong focus on Tier 2 and Tier 3 markets. Over the
past five years, the company has built a robust retail ecosystem spanning
hardware, tools, welding, sanitary ware, and paint stores, helping make
workplace safety products more accessible to workers, contractors, and small
businesses. Supported by a dedicated network of Sales Executives, Area Sales
Managers, and Regional Sales Managers, the company continues to strengthen
market development, customer engagement, and product availability across India.

KARAM
Safety offers a comprehensive portfolio of PPE solutions, including safety
helmets, protective eyewear, safety shoes, industrial gloves, cut-resistant
sleeves, safety harnesses, and lanyards, catering to the safety needs of
workers across industries.

Commenting
on the milestone, Mr. Hemant Sapra, President, Global Sales and Marketing,
KARAM Safety, said, &quot;Reaching 800 retail stores is a significant
milestone in KARAM Safety&#039;s journey to make workplace safety more accessible
across India. Safety should not be limited to large industrial centres; it must
reach every worker, irrespective of location. Our retail expansion has enabled
us to bring certified safety solutions closer to underserved markets, helping
strengthen safety awareness and encouraging the adoption of quality PPE at the
grassroots level. This achievement reinforces our commitment to building a
stronger safety culture across the country.&quot;

Further
strengthening its omnichannel approach, KARAM Safety has expanded access to
workplace safety products through KARAM Safety Online,
its dedicated e-commerce platform.
The online store offers a wide range of certified PPE products, including
safety helmets, gloves, eyewear, footwear, and fall protection equipment,
enabling customers across India to access industrial-grade safety solutions
with greater convenience. By complementing its growing retail network with a
digital platform, the company is ensuring wider availability of safety products
while supporting informed purchasing decisions and safety awareness among
individual users, small businesses, and enterprises alike.

The
retail expansion supports KARAM Safety&#039;s vision of building a sustainable and
scalable B2C business model. Unlike traditional industry players that primarily
rely on industrial distributors and B2B procurement channels, the company has
focused on expanding access to industrial-grade PPE through hyper-local retail
networks. This approach has also helped create awareness and adoption among
non-traditional customer segments, including pesticide dealers, rural brick
manufacturers, and cement dealers.

Speaking
on the achievement, Mr. Rajesh Nigam, President, Technical, KARAM Safety,
said, &quot;Our retail expansion has been driven by a clear objective to make
industrial-grade safety products easily available where people work and live.
The support of our channel partners, distributors, and retailers has been
instrumental in helping KARAM Safety scale rapidly and reach new customer segments.
Beyond traditional industrial markets, we have successfully expanded awareness
among diverse customer groups, significantly broadening the reach of workplace
safety products across the country.&quot;

The
company continues to strengthen retailer engagement through initiatives such as
its loyalty rewards programme while working closely with channel partners,
dealers, and distributors who have played a critical role in expanding its
retail footprint.

The
800-store milestone marks another important step in KARAM Safety&#039;s mission to
advance a Zero Harm culture by making certified safety solutions accessible to
every worker. As the company works towards its goal of reaching over 2 lakh
hardware and paint shops across India, it remains committed to fostering a
culture of prevention, protection, and progress across the nation&#039;s workforce.

its appearance on Shark Tank India Season 4, has announced the successful
closure of a funding round of nearly ₹10 crore, marking the largest fundraise
in the company&#039;s journey and one of the most significant investments into an
emerging regional Indian food brand.

The round has been led by a UAE-based Family Office, with
participation from a former senior executive of the Indian Angel Network (IAN)
at 50 crore valuation, alongside institutional debt from Indifi, InCred,
Velocity and Yes Bank. The fundraise follows GAON&#039;s investment on Shark Tank
India by Vineeta Singh and Anupam Mittal, reinforcing investor confidence in the
company&#039;s long-term vision.

For founder Alok Ranjan, however, this milestone represents far more
than capital.

&quot;This isn&#039;t just a funding announcement. It&#039;s validation of a
dream we&#039;ve spent almost a decade rebuilding.&quot;

Founded with the belief that India&#039;s regional cuisines deserve the
same scale and recognition as global fast-food brands, GAON has grown from a
single regional food concept into one of the country&#039;s fastest-growing regional
food startups.

To date, the company has generated more than ₹50 crore in lifetime
sales, served over one million customers, sold more than two million Littis,
and helped introduce authentic Bihari cuisine to urban consumers across India.

The fresh capital will accelerate GAON&#039;s transformation into a
QSR-led, D2C-first regional food company, while expanding its packaged foods
portfolio and experience-led retail formats.

A Decade of Starting Over

GAON&#039;s story has never been a straight line.

Founded in 2017, the company crossed its first major revenue
milestones before nearly losing everything in its early years.

It rebuilt.

Then COVID-19 disrupted the business once again.

It rebuilt again.

By 2025, GAON had crossed ₹9 crore in annual revenue, emerging as one
of India&#039;s fastest-growing regional food brands.

Now, with fresh capital in place, the company believes it is entering
its strongest chapter yet.

&quot;Every time we fell, people assumed it was the end. Every setback
forced us to build a better business. This funding isn&#039;t the finish line—it&#039;s
the beginning of our biggest chapter.&quot;

Building India&#039;s Largest Regional Food Company

The company will deploy the new capital across four strategic
priorities:

●Expanding experience-led QSR outlets across selected Indian cities.

●Building a national D2C business.

●Launching packaged regional food products including Litti, Sattu,
Thekua, Chutneys and other traditional Indian foods.

●Strengthening technology, manufacturing and supply-chain
capabilities.

GAON believes India is witnessing a structural shift in consumer
demand, with increasing preference for authentic, convenient and trustworthy
traditional foods. Yet regional Indian cuisines remain significantly
underrepresented compared to other food categories.

The company sees this gap as one of the country&#039;s largest untapped
consumer opportunities.

&quot;We don&#039;t just want to build restaurants. We want to build
India&#039;s largest regional food company.&quot;

More Than Just Litti

While GAON first became known for popularising Litti Chokha, the
company today is building a much broader platform around regional Indian foods.

Its long-term ambition is to become the most trusted national brand
for authentic foods from Bihar, Purvanchal and other underserved culinary
regions.

The founders believe products such as Sattu, Thekua, traditional
chutneys, ready-to-cook mixes and everyday regional staples have the potential
to create entirely new categories within India&#039;s packaged food market.

&quot;Our dream has never been to sell one product. Our dream has
always been to make regional Indian food mainstream.&quot;

Why Investors Backed GAON

According to the company, the investment reflects confidence not only
in the market opportunity but also in the team&#039;s resilience.

Over nine years, GAON has navigated operational challenges, the COVID
pandemic, changing consumer behaviour and multiple business pivots, using each
setback to refine its business model rather than pursue unsustainable growth.

&quot;We&#039;ve made mistakes. We&#039;ve learned from them. The business we&#039;re
building today exists because of those lessons.&quot;

Looking Ahead

Over the next few years, GAON plans to significantly expand its
omnichannel presence across QSR, D2C and FMCG, while strengthening its
manufacturing and distribution network.

Alongside GAON, the founders are also developing DUMARA, an Indianised
biryani QSR concept designed for younger consumers.

The company&#039;s mission remains unchanged:

To make Litti the next Samosa of India while building India&#039;s most
loved regional food brand.

&quot;This funding allows us to dream bigger, but our purpose remains
exactly the same—to take the authentic flavours of rural India to every city,
every home and, one day, every corner of the world.&quot;

About GAON

Founded in November 2017 by Alok Ranjan along with his brothers Rajesh
Chandra, Aryan Raj and Deepak Kumar, with Shashank Shree later joining the
founding team, GAON was created to bring authentic regional Indian food into
the mainstream.What began in Champaran, Bihar, has grown into one of India&#039;s
most inspiring food brand success stories. GAON rose to national prominence by
getting a multi shark deal on shark tank india last year and  scaling to
over ₹9 crore in revenue within just four years, proving that regional flavors
can achieve mainstream commercial success while staying true to their roots.

Today, the company is building an omnichannel regional food platform
spanning QSR, D2C and FMCG, with the vision of becoming India&#039;s leading
regional food brand. ]]></description>

<title>Verlas Brings New York’s Next&#45;Gen Diamond Jewellery to India</title>

<description><![CDATA[  

New York–born, lab-grown diamond
fine jewellery brand Verlas is now in India with a luxe, modern, design-led,
and digital-first experience at www.verlas.in

National,
July 07, 2026: Verlas, a New York–born fine jewellery brand
launches its India operations, bringing design-led and modern lab-grown diamond
jewellery in gold to one of the world’s most dynamic jewellery markets.
Entering as a digital-first brand, Verlas aims to redefine how Indians
discover, wear, and value diamonds, moving the conversation beyond wedding
lockers to designs crafted for real, everyday life.​

Launching at a time when India is emerging as
a global leader in lab-grown diamonds and digital luxury, Verlas positions
itself as a global, design-led brand rather than a traditional Indian jeweller.
The brand focuses on clean, minimal, internationally inspired designs crafted
in fine gold, using certified lab-grown diamonds to offer fine jewellery
that is aspirational yet accessible. With online-first pricing starting from ₹3,000, Verlas is built for
the generation that shops, researches, and builds trust primarily online.​

“India does not need just another lab-grown
diamond brand; it needs a global, design-first diamond brand that understands
how people actually live, dress, and express themselves today,”
said the Founder of Verlas. 

The founder further added that, “Today&#039;s
Indian consumers are ready for diamond jewellery that fits their lives, not
just their lockers. They want elegant, dainty designs they can wear to a
meeting, a brunch, a flight, or a dinner date, without waiting for a big
occasion. We are entering India not to sell lab-grown diamonds as a novelty,
but to show how beautifully designed, certified lab-grown diamond jewellery
styles can become part of daily wardrobes. Our New York design sensibility,
combined with India’s deep connection to diamonds, allows Verlas to offer
something truly new: modern, global luxury made for everyday wear.’’

The aim behind the India launch is to present
Verlas as a New York–born fine jewellery brand with a modern lab-grown diamond
vision tailored for India. Spotlighting IGI-certified lab-grown diamonds, BIS
hallmarked fine gold craftsmanship, and a smooth e-commerce experience that
makes buying diamonds clearer and more transparent. Early conversations will
centre on India’s growing appetite for wearable diamond jewellery, the rise of
lab-grown diamonds as aspirational luxury, and how Verlas’ digital-first model
fits new buying habits. 

 

The brand’s credibility is further
strengthened by its independent sustainability recognitions, including the
Butterfly Mark from Positive Luxury and SCS Global Services certification,
reinforcing its commitment to responsible sourcing and verified standards.

 

Verlas’ entry also taps into a broader shift
in the Indian market, where lab-grown diamonds are gaining traction as a
responsible, value-driven, and design-forward choice. By normalising lab-grown
diamonds firmly within the fine jewellery category rather than as a compromise,
Verlas aims to help shape the next chapter of India’s diamond story.

About Verlas

Verlas was born in New York with a simple
belief: fine jewelry should feel personal, meaningful, and right for today’s
world. At its heart are IGI-certified lab-grown diamonds created with care,
clarity, and purpose set in solid 9K/14K gold. Each Verlas design is designed
not as a distant treasure, but as something to live with daily to mark small
moments, big milestones, and everything in between. The brand’s design language
mirrors the city it comes from: intuitive, modern, and deeply considered. By
working directly with its community, Verlas redefines the traditional jewelry
experience, making it more transparent, approachable, and aligned with
conscious values. As Verlas steps into its next phase of growth, it is quietly
preparing to make its presence felt in new markets, with India soon to welcome
the brand. We proudly bear the Butterfly Mark by Positive Luxury—the global
gold standard for sustainable excellence.

<title>Expert Awareness: The Impact of Modern Stress on Your Brain</title>
<link>https://en.newsbolt.in/expert-awareness-the-impact-of-modern-stress-on-your-brain</link>
<guid>https://en.newsbolt.in/expert-awareness-the-impact-of-modern-stress-on-your-brain</guid>
<description><![CDATA[ Understanding the Hidden Neurological Impact of Chronic Stress at Sri
Ramakrishna Hospital: Modern medicine is
increasingly recognizing a powerful truth: chronic stress does not stay only in
the mind. It affects the brain, nervous system, hormones, sleep cycles,
immunity, memory, emotional regulation, and even long-term physical health.

At Sri Ramakrishna Hospital, our specialists are witnessing a growing
rise in stress-related neurological symptoms among people from all walks of
life — students struggling with academic pressure, professionals facing
burnout, homemakers carrying emotional overload, entrepreneurs under constant
performance stress and elderly individuals silently cope with anxiety,
loneliness, and sleep disturbances.

The Brain under Constant Stress

Neurology experts now understand that prolonged stress can keep the
brain in a persistent “high-alert mode.” Over time, this may affect
concentration, emotional stability, sleep quality, decision-making, memory
processing, and overall neurological functioning.

What begins as “stress” may gradually present as:


 Forgetting simple
     things more often? 
 Feeling mentally
     exhausted even after sleep? 
 Constant
     headaches or heaviness in the head? 
 Sudden dizziness
     during stressful situations? 
 Difficulty
     concentrating at work or studies? 
 Feeling
     emotionally overwhelmed for no clear reason? 
 Irritability,
     over thinking, or panic sensations? 
 Disturbed sleep
     despite physical tiredness? 
 Neck tightness,
     body pain, or unexplained fatigue? 
 Feeling “switched
     on” all the time and unable to relax? 


Many individuals continue to push through these symptoms until their
work, relationships, productivity, or quality of life begins to suffer.



The Modern Brain is Overloaded

Today’s lifestyle keeps the brain constantly stimulated:


 Continuous mobile
     phone and screen exposure 
 Poor sleep
     routines 
 Long working
     hours 
 Social media
     comparison and emotional burnout 
 Academic
     competition among students 
 Pressure to constantly
     perform and succeed 
 Emotional
     suppression and unresolved trauma 
 Lack of
     meaningful relaxation and connection 


Expert-Led Integrated Neurological Wellness

At Sri Ramakrishna Hospital, we strongly believe that stress-related
neurological care should never be limited to symptom suppression alone. Our
integrated and holistic care philosophy focuses on understanding:


 What the brain is
     experiencing 
 How emotional
     stress affects neurological functioning 
 The role of
     sleep, lifestyle, and emotional health 
 The hidden impact
     of chronic stress on the body and nervous system 
 Preventive
     strategies that support long-term wellness 


Our multidisciplinary team brings together neurological expertise,
emotional wellness support, rehabilitation guidance, and lifestyle-focused
interventions to create personalized recovery pathways for every patient.

Early Intervention Can Protect Long-Term Health

Experts warn that ignoring persistent stress-related symptoms may
eventually affect both mental and physical health outcomes. Seeking timely
support can help reduce the risk of deeper neurological and emotional
complications while significantly improving daily functioning and quality of
life.

Why Integrated Neurological Care Matters

At Sri Ramakrishna Hospital, we believe neurological health cannot be
separated from emotional well-being. Our Integrated Neurological Care approach
focuses on understanding the complete picture — not just treating symptoms
temporarily.

Our multidisciplinary team helps patients through:


 Neurological
     assessment 
 Stress and
     emotional health evaluation 
 Sleep and
     cognitive wellness support 
 Lifestyle and
     burnout management 
 Psychological
     counseling and coping strategies 
 Preventive brain
     health care 
 Rehabilitation
     and wellness planning 


Why Sri Ramakrishna Hospital

Sri Ramakrishna Hospital has earned a strong reputation for excellence
in neurosciences, advanced neurological care, and integrated patient-centered
treatment. The hospital was recognized as the “Best Hospital for Cardiology
and Neurology in the Kongu Region” at the prestigious Maruthuva Viruthugal
2025 awards, highlighting its outstanding contribution to neurological and
neurocritical care services.

The hospital’s Neurosciences Centre is supported by experienced
neurologists, neurosurgeons, advanced stroke care services, rehabilitation
expertise, and modern neuro-diagnostic technology, making it one of the leading
destinations for comprehensive brain and nervous system care in the region.
Further strengthening its commitment to neurological excellence, Sri
Ramakrishna Hospital has also been certified as an Advanced Stroke Centre,
reflecting its high standards in stroke diagnosis, emergency neurological
intervention, and multidisciplinary rehabilitation care.

Your Brain Deserves Care Too

Taking care of stress is not weakness — it is preventive healthcare.
Whether you are a student struggling with pressure, a working professional
facing burnout, a caregiver carrying emotional strain or someone silently
coping with stress-related symptoms, support is available.

At Sri Ramakrishna Hospital, we are committed to helping individuals
restore balance through compassionate, evidence-based, integrated neurological
and emotional wellness care.

Because a healthier mind supports a healthier life. ]]></description>

<title>Cities are built not only through concrete, but through culture: Municipal Commissioner Ashwini Bhide at Bombay Chamber&#45;BMC Namaste Mumbai Conclave</title>
<link>https://en.newsbolt.in/cities-are-built-not-only-through-concrete-but-through-culture-municipal-commissioner-ashwini-bhide-at-bombay-chamber-bmc-namaste-mumbai-conclave</link>

<description><![CDATA[ Mumbai,
July 6th, 2026: In a first-of-its-kind initiative celebrating
Mumbai&#039;s creative spirit and innovation ecosystem, the Bombay Chamber of
Commerce &amp; Industry, in collaboration with the Brihanmumbai Municipal
Corporation (BMC), hosted the Namaste Mumbai Conclave 2026 and The Grand
CivicTech Fund Quest on July 02, 2026. The day-long event brought together
senior government officials, industry leaders, academicians, creative
professionals, investors and entrepreneurs to chart a roadmap for transforming
Mumbai into a globally recognised creative capital and innovation hub.

Welcoming
the gathering, Sudhanshu Vats, President, Bombay Chamber of Commerce &amp;
Industry and Managing Director, Pidilite Industries, reflected on the Chamber&#039;s
nearly 190-year association with Mumbai&#039;s evolution and called for the city&#039;s
next phase of growth to be driven not only by infrastructure but also by
culture, tourism and collaboration.

&quot;Bombay
Chamber&#039;s story is closely interlinked with the story of Mumbai. As the city
undergoes an unprecedented infrastructure transformation, we must now equally
invest in its cultural identity, tourism and quality of life. Through Namaste
Mumbai, we hope to bring together ideas, innovation and partnerships that will
help build a more liveable, globally competitive and culturally vibrant
Mumbai,&quot; he said.

Delivering
the keynote address, Smt. Ashwini Bhide, IAS, Municipal Commissioner, BMC, said
that while Mumbai is witnessing one of the country&#039;s largest infrastructure
transformations, its next phase of growth must equally focus on strengthening
the city&#039;s creative identity, cultural vibrancy and public spaces.

&quot;Cities
are built not only through concrete but through culture. Ease of doing
business, ease of living and ease of movement are important, but a truly
liveable city also requires ease of expression. People need spaces where they
can express themselves, experience the creativity of others and participate in
the city&#039;s cultural life,&quot; she said.

Highlighting
Mumbai&#039;s unique character, she added, &quot;Creation comes out of chaos. Mumbai
has always turned its challenges into innovation and creativity. The new
infrastructure we are building must now become a foundation for nurturing the
next generation of artists, entrepreneurs and innovators.&quot;

Referring
to projects such as the Coastal Road and Metro network, she said these
investments should not only improve mobility but also create new public spaces
that enrich civic life. She called for stronger collaboration between
government and industry to build a city that is more beautiful, culturally
vibrant and globally attractive, adding that infrastructure alone cannot define
Mumbai&#039;s future.

The
conclave featured two engaging panel discussions that examined Mumbai&#039;s
identity and future opportunities.

The
first session, &quot;Branding Mumbai – One City, Many Identities,&quot;
moderated by Priyanka Sinha Jha, COO, Screen Academy; Indian Express Screen
Foundation for Excellence in Motion Pictures and Arts Technology, featured Smt.
Ashwini Bhide, IAS, Jamnadas Majethia, Actor, Director &amp; Producer, Ajit
Andhare, Chief Operating Officer, Viacom18 Motion Pictures, and Gajendra Ahire,
Producer &amp; Director. The panellists explored how Mumbai can build a unified
global brand by strengthening its heritage, theatre, cinema, public spaces and
cultural infrastructure.

The
second session, &quot;Mumbai 3.0 – The Creative Capital Opportunity,&quot;
moderated by Latha Venkatesh, Executive Editor, CNBC-TV18, brought together
Shri Vishwas Mote, Deputy Municipal Commissioner, Zone III, BMC, Dr. Indu
Shahani, Founding President &amp; Chancellor, ATLAS SkillTech University, Shri
Rajiv Jalota, Retd. IAS, Former Chairperson, Mumbai Port Authority, and Uday
Khanna, Past President, Bombay Chamber of Commerce &amp; Industry and former
Independent Director of Kotak Mahindra Bank, Castrol India, Pfizer
and Pidilite Industries.
The discussion highlighted the importance of integrating infrastructure with
culture, education, tourism and industry partnerships to position Mumbai among
the world&#039;s leading creative cities.

The
afternoon session transitioned from dialogue to action with The Grand CivicTech
Fund Quest, organised jointly by the Bombay Chamber and the BMC. Designed as a
platform to connect promising CivicTech startups with investors and civic
leaders, the initiative showcased innovative, technology-driven solutions to
address Mumbai&#039;s urban challenges.

Representing
the BMC, Shashi Bala, Chief – Business Development and Director, SMILE Council
– CivicTech Incubator of BMC, outlined the vision of the Society for Mumbai
Incubation Lab to Entrepreneurship (SMILE) Council, which was created to
nurture entrepreneurs, transform innovative ideas into sustainable businesses
and contribute to Mumbai&#039;s growth as an international business and innovation
hub. She shared that SMILE focuses on developing solutions that strengthen
civic infrastructure and public services and currently supports 24 startups,
with another 17–18 startups in the pipeline.

Highlighting
what makes the incubator unique, she said, &quot;Our vision is to nurture
entrepreneurs, transform innovative ideas into sustainable businesses and
contribute to Mumbai&#039;s growth as an international business and innovation hub.
What makes SMILE different is that startups don&#039;t just receive mentoring—they
get the opportunity to test and refine their technologies in real-life civic
situations by working closely with BMC departments, enabling solutions that can
create a meaningful impact for the city.&quot;

Ashith
Kampani, Chair, PE &amp; VC Committee, Bombay Chamber and Chairman,
CosmicMandala 15 Securities Pvt. Ltd., welcomed the finalists and jury members,
noting that the Fund Quest was conceived to bridge the gap between innovative
CivicTech startups, investors and government, enabling promising solutions to move
from ideas to implementation.

Ten
shortlisted startups presented their innovations before an eminent jury of
investors and industry leaders and were evaluated on four
parameters—Opportunity, Scalability, Capability and Monetisability. Niramai
Health Analytix Pvt. Ltd., led by Dr. Geetha Manjunath, emerged as the
CivicTech Champion, while EcoBio Consulting Pvt. Ltd. and Saltech Design Labs
Pvt. Ltd. were declared the First and Second Runners-up, respectively. In
addition to cash prizes, the top three startups will receive structured
mentorship from industry leaders to support their growth and market adoption.

The
Namaste Mumbai Conclave 2026 and The Grand CivicTech Fund Quest together
showcased a unified vision for Mumbai&#039;s future—one where creativity, culture,
innovation and entrepreneurship work hand in hand to shape the city&#039;s next
chapter. ]]></description>

Following the
successful unveiling of Sansaar’s next phase of growth at the brand’s annual

<title>India&amp;apos;s Enterprise Messaging Has a New Rising Star, And It&amp;apos;s Not SMS or WhatsApp</title>
<link>https://en.newsbolt.in/indias-enterprise-messaging-has-a-new-rising-star-and-its-not-sms-or-whatsapp</link>
<guid>https://en.newsbolt.in/indias-enterprise-messaging-has-a-new-rising-star-and-its-not-sms-or-whatsapp</guid>
<description><![CDATA[ As
businesses struggle with SMS limitations and rising WhatsApp costs, VeUp
Technologies introduces VeUp Omnichannel; a unified platform that brings SMS,
WhatsApp, and RCS together into a single intelligent messaging engine.

Bengaluru,
India: For more than a decade, enterprise messaging
has revolved around two familiar channels: SMS and WhatsApp. One offered reach.
The other offered engagement. Neither offered both.

SMS
became the default communication channel for businesses because every mobile
phone could receive it. Banks used it for OTPs, fintech companies for alerts,
healthcare providers for appointment reminders, and e-commerce brands for
delivery updates.

But
SMS came with a limitation that enterprises have been forced to work around for
years: 160 characters. As customer communication became more detailed,
personalised, and experience-driven, that limitation became increasingly
difficult to ignore.

WhatsApp
solved many of those challenges by enabling businesses to send rich media,
documents, buttons, and conversational experiences. Customer engagement
improved significantly, and enterprises embraced the platform as a modern
communication channel.

However,
as messaging volumes grew, so did costs. For businesses sending millions of
messages every month, WhatsApp&#039;s conversation-based pricing model has become a
growing operational expense.

Today,
enterprises face a difficult trade-off:

●       
Choose SMS and sacrifice richness.

●       
Choose WhatsApp and absorb higher costs.

Increasingly,
businesses are asking whether there is a better alternative.

The Answer Is RCS

Often
described as the next evolution of business messaging, RCS (Rich Communication
Services) combines the reach of carrier networks with the rich experiences
customers have come to expect from modern messaging platforms. It enables
businesses to send branded messages, images, carousels, action buttons, and
detailed content directly through the native messaging application on supported
devices.

More
importantly, it bridges the gap between SMS and WhatsApp.

Want
to see what RCS can do for your business? Contact us for a personalised
consultation with our messaging experts.

Introducing VeUp
OmniChannel

Recognising
this shift, VeUp Technologies has launched VeUp OmniChannel, a unified
communication platform that brings SMS, WhatsApp Business, and RCS together
under a single API, a single dashboard, and an intelligent routing engine.

Instead
of forcing businesses to manage multiple messaging platforms independently,
VeUp OmniChannel allows organisations to orchestrate communication across
channels from one central platform.

&quot;Businesses
shouldn&#039;t have to choose between reach, customer experience, and cost
efficiency. Modern communication requires all three, and that is exactly what
VeUp OmniChannel is designed to deliver.&quot; — VeUp Technologies
spokesperson.

See
what VeUp OmniChannel can do for your business → Request a Demo.

Intelligent Routing:
Zero Blind Spots

The
platform intelligently routes messages across SMS, WhatsApp, and RCS
based on delivery availability, business rules, and channel performance. If one
channel becomes unavailable, the platform automatically reroutes communication
through an alternative, ensuring critical customer interactions are never lost.

●       
If a WhatsApp message fails → automatically
retries through RCS or SMS

●       
If RCS is unavailable on a device → instantly
falls back to SMS

●       
If SMS delivery encounters issues → WhatsApp
or RCS step in as backup

Already Operating at
Enterprise Scale

The
platform is live and processing:

●       
150M+ messages every month

●       
5,000 transactions per second at peak load

●       
99% platform uptime

●       
99.9% OTP success rate for business-critical
authentication

A Complete
Communication Stack

VeUp
OmniChannel gives enterprises a comprehensive set of capabilities in one
environment:

●       
WhatsApp Business messaging

●       
RCS campaigns with rich media and interactive buttons

●       
DLT-compliant SMS infrastructure

●       
Campaign automation

●       
Role-based access controls

●       
Real-time analytics and detailed audit trails

Instead
of managing multiple vendors, dashboards, and APIs, enterprises gain a unified
environment for planning, executing, monitoring, and optimising customer
communication.

Business Impact Across
Industries

A
missed message doesn&#039;t just fail to deliver; it fails a customer, a
transaction, or a moment that mattered.

●     
Banks and financial institutions:
Message delivery drives onboarding, transaction verification, and repayment
collections.

●     
Healthcare providers:
Timely alerts improve patient engagement and appointment adherence.

●     
E-commerce brands:
Every delivered update or promo contributes to experience and revenue.

●     
Insurance companies:
Renewals, claims, and premium reminders depend on messages landing on time.

●     
NBFCs and lenders: EMI
reminders and collections communication affect repayment cycles.

●     
Retail and D2C:
Order and delivery updates shape post-purchase experience.

●     
Travel and logistics:
Booking and shipment alerts reduce failed deliveries and support the load.

Different
sectors, same stakes; communication has to reach the right person, at the right
time, without fail. VeUp is built to serve that need across virtually every
industry.

The Future Is
Omnichannel

As RCS adoption
continues to grow across India, VeUp Technologies believes the future of
enterprise messaging will not be defined by a single channel.

It
will be defined by how intelligently businesses use all of them together.

With
VeUp OmniChannel, that future is already here.

<title>The Rise of AI&#45;Ready Businesses: Why Having a Website Is No Longer Enough in 2026</title>
<link>https://en.newsbolt.in/the-rise-of-ai-ready-businesses-why-having-a-website-is-no-longer-enough-in-2026</link>
<guid>https://en.newsbolt.in/the-rise-of-ai-ready-businesses-why-having-a-website-is-no-longer-enough-in-2026</guid>
<description><![CDATA[ Primotech,
Austin’s award-winning global technology company ranked among the top 3.5% of
54,000+ IT firms worldwide by TechBehemoths, explains what an intelligent
digital presence truly means for Indian and US businesses adapting to AI.

Mohali,
India — 2026: Ten years ago, the business that had a
website had an advantage. Five years ago, the business that ranked on Google
had an advantage. 

In
2026, the business that gets cited by AI, surfaced by intelligent search, and
embedded into automated decision-making systems has the advantage. 

This
is where Primotech is leading and has been preparing its clients since the
early signals of the AI cycle became impossible to ignore. This is why they are
sharing this directly with business owners across India and the United States
about what digital presence genuinely means today, and what it needs to become.

The Problem With
&quot;Just Having a Website&quot; in 2026

The
website was the minimum viable digital presence for two decades. That model
worked because discovery happened through search engines, and search engines
rewarded the things marketers had learned to produce keyword-optimized pages,
backlinks, structured content hierarchies. That mode of discovery is now being
replaced by AI optimized pages, backlinks, structured content hierarchies. That
mode of discovery is now being replaced by AI.

Today,
AI-powered platforms including Google&#039;s AI Overviews, AI Mode, ChatGPT,
Perplexity, Grok, Claude, and Gemini are answering questions directly,
surfacing brands through citation rather than ranking, and making
recommendations without ever sending a user to a results page.

The
businesses appearing in those answers aren&#039;t there because they ranked highest.
They&#039;re there because their digital infrastructure was built to be understood,
trusted, and cited by AI systems.

What AI-Ready Actually
Means

Primotech
works with clients across the globe, and the gap between businesses that are
AI-ready and those that aren&#039;t is becoming visible in performance data faster
than most marketing teams expected.

AI-ready
businesses share a set of characteristics that go far beyond having a modern
website. Their content is structured for direct-answer formats, not just
keyword density. Their technical infrastructure includes schema markup that
makes entity relationships clear to AI systems. Their brand presence extends
across credible third-party sources, building the authority that AI platforms
recognize as trustworthy. Their customer experience layer leverages intelligent
automation to personalize interactions, qualify intent, and respond at a speed
that human-only workflows cannot match.

This
is what Primotech calls an Intelligent Business Ecosystem: a connected
architecture of technology, content, data, and AI that positions a business to
be discovered, engaged with, and acted upon across both traditional and
AI-mediated channels simultaneously.

The AI Solutions
Primotech Is Building Right Now

Building
AI-ready businesses is the active practice the company has been developing and
delivering across real enterprise engagements.

Primotech&#039;s
AI practice spans conversational AI and agent development using large language
models, RAG-based knowledge intelligence systems built on vector database
architecture, AI avatar and multimodal intelligence platforms, enterprise
content distribution infrastructure at clinical scale, AI-powered talent
intelligence and automated evaluation frameworks, and intelligent IT automation
through tool-calling and workflow orchestration systems.

In
healthcare technology, Primotech has delivered enterprise-grade AI
infrastructure serving tens of thousands of institutions across the US,
combining real-time content distribution systems, point-of-care communication
technology, and cloud-scale backend architecture built for the operational demands
of the US healthcare ecosystem.

In
enterprise AI, the company has designed and architected conversational AI
platforms that combine LLM intelligence, speech processing, behavioral
analytics, and structured scoring systems into unified hiring and employee
support ecosystems. These systems leverage RAG architecture, Pinecone vector
databases, AI avatar interfaces, and automated workflow engines to deliver the
kind of always-on, context-aware intelligence that replaces fragmented manual
processes at scale.

In
AI-powered marketing, Primotech&#039;s Generative Engine Optimization practice
builds the content infrastructure, entity authority, and structured data
frameworks that position brands to be cited inside AI-generated answers across
Google, ChatGPT, Perplexity, and Gemini.

This
is the full-spectrum AI capability that earned Primotech recognition as a
TechBehemoths 2025 Award Winner, placing the company in the top 3.5% of over
54,000 global IT and digital firms evaluated across 68 countries.

The Opportunity for Indian
Businesses

India&#039;s
business environment in 2026 is one of the most dynamic anywhere in the world.
Digital adoption has accelerated across every sector. And the gap between
businesses operating with AI-powered infrastructure and those still running on
legacy digital models is widening every quarter.

For
Indian businesses, this creates both urgency and opportunity. The urgency is
that the window to build AI-ready infrastructure before competitors do is
shrinking. 

And
the opportunity is utilizing India&#039;s technology talent base, combined with the
kind of cross-market operational experience that companies like Primotech have
built over a decade, means Indian businesses have access to the strategic and
technical capabilities needed to compete not just domestically but globally.

Primotech&#039;s
delivery infrastructure in Mohali and its strategic headquarters in the US give
Indian clients a partner that understands the Indian market deeply, has built
for global standards consistently, and can position Indian businesses for
visibility and growth in the US and global markets as confidently as it serves
them at home.

The Opportunity for US
and Global Businesses

For
businesses in the United States and globally that are evaluating offshore or
white-label technology solutions and marketing partnerships, this AI shift
presents an opportunity to leverage the full-spectrum capabilities offered by
Primotech. 

The
companies winning in 2026 are the ones with the most effective partnerships,
combining domestic strategic leadership with offshore delivery depth,
AI-powered execution with human strategic oversight, and cost-efficient
infrastructure with genuine technical quality.

Primotech&#039;s
white-label and offshore partnership model is built for exactly this. US and
global agencies, consultancies, and growth businesses can access Primotech&#039;s
full capability stack including AI development, RAG systems, conversational AI
agents, data engineering, DevOps, full-stack development, and AI-powered
marketing, under their own brand or as a named technology partner, with the
flexibility to scale engagements up or down as needs evolve.

The Next Ten Years

Primotech
was founded in 2015 on the belief that technology should be easy, accessible,
accountable, and genuinely useful to the businesses it serves. A decade later,
that belief hasn&#039;t changed. What has changed is the scale of what&#039;s possible,
and the urgency of getting the infrastructure right.

The
businesses that will define their categories over the next ten years are
building their AI-ready foundations now. Not next year. Not after the next
funding round. Now!

Primotech
is the partner building those foundations.

It
assumed special significance in the larger context of the India–Japan Summit
between Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi, which
reaffirmed the depth and future direction of the India–Japan Special Strategic
and Global Partnership. At a moment when both nations are advancing cooperation
in technology, innovation, artificial intelligence, economic security,
resilience and people-to-people exchanges, the Tokyo Colloquium underscored the
indispensable role of universities in giving intellectual, institutional and
human depth to this partnership.

The
Inaugural Session opened with a Welcome Address by Professor (Dr.) C. Raj
Kumar, Founding Vice Chancellor of JGU, followed by a Special Address by H.E. Mr.
Hatoyama Yukio, Former Prime Minister of Japan. In his reflective address, Mr.
Hatoyama remarked: “Japan and India share a relationship that
goes beyond diplomacy and contemporary cooperation. It is rooted in a deeper
civilisational bond shaped over centuries by Buddhism, ethical thought and
spiritual exchange. The philosophy of Yu-ai, or fraternity, speaks to mutual
respect, mutual understanding and mutual assistance, and finds a natural
resonance with Mahatma Gandhi’s ideals of Ahimsa (Non-Violence) and Sarvodaya
(The Welfare of All). In this shared inheritance, Japan and India have the
opportunity to offer the world a vision of harmony, human dignity and
coexistence, inspired by the timeless Indian wisdom that the world is one
family.”

He
concluded by saying, “Education for young people is inseparable from the
creation of our future, and I sincerely hope that deeper collaboration between
JGU and Japanese universities will enable more students to participate in
mutual exchange, strengthening Japan–India relations in academia, economics and
culture.”

Professor
(Dr.) C. Raj Kumar then delivered the Inaugural Address, confirming JGU’s
long-term commitment to Japan and its vision of universities as enduring
bridges between the two nations. A Special Address was delivered by H.E. Mr.
R. Madhu Sudan, Chargé d’Affaires, Embassy of India, Tokyo, who conveyed
the Mission’s warm support for deeper academic and institutional cooperation
between India and Japan and welcomed the Forum as a timely contribution to the
two countries’ Special Strategic and Global Partnership.

This
was followed by the Keynote Address, delivered by Professor (Dr.) Tomohiko
Taniguchi, Former Special Advisor to the Cabinet of Prime Minister Shinzo Abe,
who offered a considered perspective on the strategic dimensions of the
India–Japan relationship and the role of knowledge, innovation and higher
education in shaping the future of the Indo-Pacific and the world at large.

A
key highlight was the Distinguished Public Lecture by Dr. Shashi Tharoor,
Member of Parliament, Lok Sabha, India, and Chairman of the Parliamentary
Standing Committee on External Affairs.
Addressing a full and distinguished audience of university leaders, diplomats
and students, Dr. Tharoor reflected on the evolving relationship between India
and Japan and the role of higher education, ideas and people-to-people
engagement in shaping the future of Asia in an age of rapid technological
change. In the course of his remarks, he warmly appreciated JGU’s sustained and
meticulous efforts in building deep and enduring academic ties with Japan,
observing that institutional initiative of this kind embodies the very
people-to-people foundations on which lasting bilateral relationships are
built.

The
session also witnessed the launch of the JGU Sustainability Report 2026 by
Professor Padmanabha Ramanujam, Dean, Office of Academic Governance, JGU.

The
Forum’s Panel Discussion brought together an esteemed gathering of senior
leaders from Japan’s leading universities on a single stage. Moderated by
Professor (Dr.) C. Raj Kumar, Founding Vice Chancellor of JGU, the panel
featured Professor (Dr.) Kaori Hayashi, Executive Vice President, University of
Tokyo; Professor (Dr.) Shoichiro Iwakiri, President, International Christian
University; Professor (Dr.) Noriyuki Takahashi, President, Musashi University;
Professor (Dr.) Miki Sugimura, President, Sophia University; Professor (Dr.)
Nobuo Haruna, President, Tokyo University of Foreign Studies; Professor (Dr.)
Matthew Wilson, President and Dean, Temple University, Japan Campus; Professor
(Dr.) Masahiko Gemma, Vice President, Waseda University; and Hon’ble Mr.
Justice Michael D. Wilson, Former Judge, Supreme Court of Hawaii.

The
Forum also hosted a Certificate Distribution Ceremony for nearly 200 JGU students
who completed Short-Term Study Abroad Programmes (ST-SAPs) at JGU’s partner
universities across Japan in Summer 2026,
including Chuo University, Kyorin University, Musashi University, Temple
University, Japan Campus, the University of Tokyo and the University of
Yamanashi. The ceremony was presented by Professor Hinaho Kishi, Assistant
Professor and Assistant Director, Office of International Affairs and Global
Initiatives, JGU, and Ms. Ananya Lall, student of the Bachelor of Business
Administration (Hons.) programme at the Jindal Global Business School, JGU.

Speaking
on the occasion, Professor (Dr.) C. Raj Kumar, Founding Vice Chancellor, JGU,
said: “The 3rd India–Japan Higher Education Forum
reflects JGU’s abiding commitment to building enduring bridges between India
and Japan through higher education, research, innovation, student mobility and
sustained dialogue on the future of universities in the age of artificial
intelligence. As we embrace the extraordinary possibilities of technology,
universities have a responsibility to ensure that artificial intelligence
deepens human understanding, advances the public good and strengthens global
cooperation. Universities must remain custodians of human values, critical
thinking, ethical judgment and public purpose even as they prepare future
generations for a rapidly changing world. It is in this union of technological
ambition and humanistic purpose that the universities of the future will be
shaped, and India and Japan are natural partners in that endeavour.”

Professor
(Dr.) Akhil Bhardwaj, Executive Dean and Director, Office of International
Affairs and Global Initiatives, JGU, said: “JGU’s
engagement in Japan extends far beyond a single event. The Forum reflects a
larger institutional effort to create meaningful partnerships, deepen student
and faculty mobility, and build enduring platforms for sustained academic
collaboration between Indian and Japanese universities. The Forum, our study
abroad programmes and the breadth of our engagements with partners across Japan
together represent a long-term investment in the people-to-people foundations
of the India–Japan relationship.”

The
3rd India–Japan Higher Education Forum 2026 affirmed that the future of the
India–Japan relationship will not be shaped by governments and markets alone,
but also by universities, scholars and students who build trust across
cultures, generate new knowledge, and prepare the next generation of leaders in
both countries to learn with and from one another. ]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[ With Indian luxury real
estate market surging to record heights, smart home buyers and investors are
now shifting their focus to high-end residential markets in Gurgaon and
Bangalore.The luxury real estate market in India is on a roll, and smart home
buyers and investors are now focusing on premium residential markets in Gurgaon
and Bangalore. To meet the growing demand, Luxury Roof has emerged as a
platform that pairs buyers with some of the most coveted luxury property in
these two booming metropolitan areas.

Gurgaon and Bangalore
have become major markets for luxury homes over the last few years due to
robust economic development, an increasing number of corporate firms,
world-class infrastructure and the rising number of high-net-worth individuals.
New opportunities for investors that are looking for long-term value
appreciation have emerged as the demand for premium residences, gated
communities, penthouses, branded developments and more have grown.

Luxury
Roof caters to buyers looking for carefully selected luxury property in Gurgaon
that is a perfect fit for their lifestyle and investment goal in Gurgaon with
its carefully curated collection of luxury properties. The platform offers
access to projects by some of India&#039;s top real estate brands which range from
ultra-luxury apartments on Golf Course Road to premium villas and integrated
townships in fast-growing corridors.

Likewise, a wide
selection of property in Bangalore is available on the platform that includes
prime property areas like Whitefield, Sarjapur Road, North Bangalore,
Electronic City, and other emerging investment hot spots. As Bangalore
continues to be a hub for technology firms, startups, and international companies,
the premium housing sector in the city stands out as one of the most robust and
desirable real estate markets in the country.

According to a Luxury
Roof spokesperson, &quot;Modern buyers are looking for more than a property,
they&#039;re looking for a lifestyle, security, connectivity, and long term
investment value, and our job is to make it easy for them to find a verified
listing, get information about the market and help them make an informed
choice.

It prioritizes
transparency, quality, and customer-centric service to help users make informed
decisions about projects, the opportunities they present, the pricing trends,
and location benefits to consider, all in line with their investment
objectives. Luxury Roof can make the home-buying or real estate investing
process smooth for people looking for their dream home or considering
high-growth real estate assets.

Luxury real estate
demand in Gurgaon and Bangalore is expected to stay robust with the ongoing
infrastructure development, commercial growth and making of wealth, says
industry experts. This has led investors to diversify their portfolios by
investing in residential properties with a strategic location, where they can
enjoy a lifestyle as well as the capital appreciation potential.

With the changing
times, Luxury Roof is not only expanding its portfolio, but is also proving to
be a reliable go-to place for any property buyer in Gurgaon and Bangalore.

<description><![CDATA[ Jaipur: Entrepreneur Outreach, a digital business media platform dedicated to India&#039;s rapidly growing startup and MSME ecosystem, is steadily expanding its editorial coverage and content offerings. The platform aims to provide entrepreneurs, startup founders, investors, and small business owners with reliable business news, industry insights, market analysis, and valuable information to support entrepreneurial growth.
According to the company, Entrepreneur Outreach has developed an editorial strategy focused on highlighting entrepreneurs and businesses that often receive limited attention in mainstream business media. Special emphasis is being placed on startups, MSMEs, and innovation-driven enterprises from Tier-2 and Tier-3 cities, showcasing their success stories, challenges, and contributions to local economic development.
The platform publishes a wide range of business-focused content, including startup funding updates, industry trends, founder profiles, expert interviews, fact-based business reports, company profiles, business event listings, gadget reviews, and podcasts. Through this diverse content portfolio, Entrepreneur Outreach seeks to equip entrepreneurs with actionable knowledge while creating opportunities to connect with investors, industry experts, and the broader business community.
The company believes that although India&#039;s startup and MSME sectors are experiencing remarkable growth, the achievements of regional entrepreneurs often remain underrepresented. Addressing this gap, Entrepreneur Outreach is committed to bringing forward businesses and founders who are driving innovation, generating employment, and creating a meaningful impact at the grassroots level.
Founder Junjaram Thory stated that millions of inspiring entrepreneurial journeys across India deserve national recognition. He emphasized that Entrepreneur Outreach aims to become more than just a business news platform by building a trusted media destination that promotes entrepreneurship, innovation, and positive stories contributing to India&#039;s economic development.
Looking ahead, the company plans to introduce new content sections, in-depth industry analysis, exclusive interviews, data-driven reports, and additional digital resources. These initiatives are intended to further strengthen Entrepreneur Outreach as a comprehensive information and networking platform for India&#039;s startup, MSME, and business communities. ]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[ BENGALURU,
INDIA (04 July, 2026) : SharkNinja APAC has unveiled its first
local marketing campaign in India featuring Bollywood father-daughter duo
Ananya Panday and Chunky Panday. The multi-phase campaign introduces the Ninja
Blast Portable Blender and the Ninja Combi 14-in-1 Multicooker from Ninja,
America’s No. 1 Small Kitchen Appliance Brand*, staying true to the brand’s
philosophy of solving real-world problems that others miss.

Built
around the Pandays’ natural chemistry, the campaign uses familiar household
tensions to bring Ninja’s problem-solving innovation closer to Indian
consumers. For the Ninja Blast Portable Blender, the brand deployed a two-phase
teaser playing on Ananya being “tired of chunky,” shifting the conversation
from social buzz to the uneven output and fuss of bulky blenders, before
revealing the power and convenience of on-the-go blending. For the Ninja Combi
14-in-1 Multicooker, Chunky turns into a “Cooking Ninja,” surprising Ananya
with a variety of dishes, from samosas and cake to dhoklas and idlis, all
cooked in one versatile appliance.

The
campaign marks the next step in SharkNinja’s India journey following its April
2026 market entry. By combining global product innovation with local cultural
relevance, SharkNinja is using its first India campaign to build salience,
familiarity, and consideration for Ninja’s kitchen portfolio.



“As
we build SharkNinja’s presence in India, it was important for our first
campaign to feel culturally relevant while staying true to our problem-solving
approach. The natural dynamic between Ananya and Chunky Panday mirrors the
energy of modern Indian homes, making them a strong fit for this launch.” said
Mrunmay Mehta, MD &amp; Country Head - India, SharkNinja APAC. 

Speaking
on the partnership, Ananya Panday shared, “I really enjoyed working
on this campaign because it brought out the relationship I share with my father
in such a natural way. We got to be ourselves while doing something we both
genuinely enjoy, which is spending time around food and cooking. I’m
delighted to be associated with such an iconic global brand in this space.”

Chunky
Panday added, “For me, the kitchen has always
been a place for conversation, laughter, and shared moments. Doing this
campaign with Ananya made it even more special, because our equation brought
that same sense of warmth and fun to the screen. I’m thrilled to be associated
with Ninja, such an iconic and trusted global brand”

The
campaign brings together the portability of the Ninja Blast and the versatility
of the Ninja Combi to address the pace and variety of modern Indian cooking.
From fresh blends on the go to complete meals prepared across two levels, Ninja
is helping Indian homes make room for everyone’s favourites.

About
SharkNinja APAC: SharkNinja APAC refers to the licensed APAC
operations for the Shark and Ninja brands. Focused on bringing globally
recognised, problem-solving products to local consumers, SharkNinja APAC

<title>India’s SMEs Don’t Need More Training. They Need Transformation</title>
<link>https://en.newsbolt.in/indias-smes-dont-need-more-training-they-need-transformation</link>
<guid>https://en.newsbolt.in/indias-smes-dont-need-more-training-they-need-transformation</guid>
<description><![CDATA[ JAIPUR, [3rd July 2026] :  For
years, the answer offered to a struggling small business has been the same:
more training. A workshop here, a motivational session there, a slide deck full
of frameworks. Yet the businesses keep hitting the same wall. A new initiative
believes it knows why — and that the conventional answer has been solving the
wrong problem.

A new
venture, The Ascend Academyy, argues that the real ceiling on small-business
growth isn’t opportunity or ambition — it’s understanding. And understanding
can be designed

The Ascend Academyy, launched by Leadership &amp; Business
Transformation Strategist Bharatesh Suvarna and MSME growth strategist Gaggan
Jain, starts from an uncomfortable premise: most corporate training fails not
because the content is wrong, but because information was never the bottleneck.
“People rarely act differently because they were handed more facts,” the
founders argue. “They act differently when their mindset, their confidence, and
their conversations change.”

It is a quiet but significant reframing. Across India, millions of
Small and Medium Enterprises sit at the same inflection point — the moment a
founder who once knew every customer by name must now lead through managers,
systems, and culture. The instinct is to add headcount or chase a new market. The
harder, more durable work is to change how the organisation thinks. That work,
the Academyy contends, is a business strategy, not an HR expense.

From
knowing to doing

The distinction the founders keep returning to is the one between knowing
and doing. A manager can recite every principle of delegation and still
not delegate. A sales team can name every objection-handling technique and
still lose the deal on trust.



“The gap between
knowing and doing is where performance is actually won or lost. So we test
every programme against one question: what will someone do differently
tomorrow?”  — Bharatesh
Suvarna, Co-Founder



That test produced an unusually concrete recent engagement. Asked to
train teams on the FOFO (Franchise Owned, Franchise Operated) model, the
Academyy refused to simply explain the structure. Instead it taught teams to
read the investor’s mind — the high-capital-at-risk anxiety of a franchisee,
the fears that shape every decision, the questions that build or break trust.
The lesson generalised: most growth is bottlenecked not by what a business can
offer, but by how well its people understand the person across the table.



“Business growth is
rarely limited by opportunity. It is limited by understanding. When teams learn
to identify what stakeholders actually fear and want, the conversations change
— and when conversations change, outcomes change.”  — Gaggan Jain, Co-Founder



The conviction is backed by experience rather than theory. Suvarna
spent more than three decades in retail leadership, business transformation,
and people development. Jain leads the Academyy’s MSME practice and the
development of Dhandha 360°, its complete business operating system for owners
in manufacturing and retail, built on the Academyy’s ASCEND Framework — Acknowledge,
Shift, Create, Evaluate, Now, Daily — the same six-step discipline that
gives the Academyy its name.

Their broader thesis fits a pattern visible across Indian business:
the most valuable interventions are no longer the loudest or the most
content-heavy, but the ones that change behaviour and quietly compound. Markets
shift, customers evolve, competition sharpens. Organisations that keep learning
keep growing; those that stop learning eventually stop evolving.

Which is why the Academyy resists the label of trainer altogether,
preferring growth partner. Its founding line doubles as its argument:
growth is not an accident — growth is designed.

About The
Ascend Academyy

The Ascend Academyy is a leadership, business, and organisational
development initiative committed to helping individuals, teams, and businesses
unlock their next level of growth. Through customised interventions, workshops,
coaching programmes, and transformation initiatives, the Academyy helps
organisations convert potential into performance, and ambition into
achievement. Its guiding belief is simple: growth is not an accident — growth
is designed.

About the
Founders

Bharatesh Suvarna is a
Business Transformation Strategist, leadership coach, and co-founder of The
Ascend Academyy, with more than three decades spent inside the realities of
Indian business. His career spans retail leadership, business transformation,
and people development — the disciplines of moving an organisation from
founder-dependence to professional structure, and from individual effort to
repeatable system. Across that arc he has built and mentored leadership teams,
professionalised operations, strengthened customer-facing cultures, and
prepared managers to carry larger responsibilities as their businesses scale.

His approach is defined by a refusal to separate learning from
results. Rather than deliver theory, he designs interventions around the
specific decisions, conversations, and behaviours a business needs to change —
measuring every programme against a single test: what will people do
differently tomorrow? It is this practical, business-first philosophy, grounded
in years on the shop floor and in the boardroom, that he brings to The Ascend
Academyy and to the SME owners it serves.

Gaggan Jain is a
business educator, MSME growth strategist, and co-founder of The Ascend
Academyy. He leads the Academyy’s MSME practice, including the development of
Dhandha 360° — the Academyy’s flagship business operating system and education
programme for owners in manufacturing and retail — and the Academyy’s
proprietary ASCEND Framework (Acknowledge, Shift, Create, Evaluate, Now,
Daily). His work is grounded in real Indian business contexts and the
day-to-day operating realities of founder-led enterprises, translating large-business
discipline into practical tools that small and medium businesses can actually
use.

<title>ESDS Software Solution Launches Swaraj Cloud: India’s AI&#45;Autonomous Architect Cloud Platform</title>

<description><![CDATA[  

ESDS
Software Solution Limited launches Swaraj Cloud, India’s AI-autonomous
architect cloud platform built, and operated entirely on Indian soil.
Designed for the enterprises, banks, government bodies and regulated industries
that cannot afford to keep building India’s digital future on infrastructure
governed by foreign law, Swaraj Cloud delivers the compute power, AI capability
and developer tooling of a global hyperscaler with a key foundational
difference: servers, data, and decisions are designed to remain under Indian
ownership and Indian legal jurisdiction.

Mumbai,
India, 2nd July 2026 : ESDS Software Solution Ltd., India&#039;s Sovereign
End-to-End AI Ecosystem Provider, today announced the launch of Swaraj Cloud
an AI-Autonomous Sovereign Cloud Platform built, operated entirely on Indian
soil. Running on ESDS-owned physical infrastructure housed in Indian Data
Centers and governed under Indian jurisdiction, Swaraj Cloud delivers
enterprise-grade compute, AI, security and developer capabilities with 100%
Indian data residency and minimal foreign infrastructure dependency.

The
platform addresses a regulatory and operational gap that has grown more acute
with the enforcement of the Digital Personal Data Protection (DPDP) Act 2023,
MeitY&#039;s Cloud Selection Framework for government workloads and RBI cloud
guidelines governing data residency in the banking sector. Indian enterprises
in regulated industries banking, government, healthcare and public services
have been required to meet increasingly stringent data sovereignty obligations
while operating on infrastructure not subject to Indian legal jurisdiction.
Swaraj Cloud is built to resolve that gap at the infrastructure level, not
through contractual overlays or data processing agreements.

&quot;India
stands at the defining inflection point of its digital century. Over the last
decade, India has built one of the world&#039;s largest Digital Public
Infrastructure ecosystems, yet the foundation powering our digital economy
continues to rely on foreign cloud platforms, foreign AI ecosystems, and
imported compute. Today, over 70% of India&#039;s workloads continue to run on
foreign infrastructure , resulting in significant economic outflows and
strategic dependence on technologies beyond our control. The cost of inaction
as a nation is reflected in geopolitical risks, compliance obligations and the
increasing need for digital self-reliance.

It
is this vision that inspired the creation of Swaraj Cloud - India&#039;s AI
Autonomous Architect Cloud Platform, built in India, governed in India, and
engineered for global scale. Purpose-built to deliver sovereign cloud
capabilities through autonomous intelligence, hyper-scale architecture and
AI-driven automation, Swaraj Cloud harnesses a comprehensive sovereign AI
digital IT ecosystem that brings together 30+ services and 80+ integrated
intelligent capabilities, enabling organizations to scale their digital
transformation through a single, unified sovereign platform.

A
defining capability of Swaraj Cloud is its Prompt-to-Production architecture ,
powered by an integrated Solution Generator that enables organizations to
transform a business requirement into a production-ready live environment. 

Built
on five foundational pillars - AI Intelligence, Scalability, Security,
Compliance and Data Sovereignty  - Swaraj
Cloud seamlessly unifies Cloud Service Provider (CSP) and Managed Service Provider
(MSP) capabilities into a single sovereign ecosystem. 

The
path ahead for India lies unequivocally in Digital Sovereignty , where our
data, cloud, AI, compute, cybersecurity and critical digital infrastructure are
developed, governed and continuously innovated within India. This is a
collective national responsibility and ESDS is committed to enabling this
vision by delivering a sovereign end-to-end AI and IT ecosystem that empowers
large enterprises, governments and BFSI institutions. Our purpose extends to
enabling the AtmaNirbhar Bharat mission and building sovereign digital
foundations through platforms like Swaraj Cloud that will enable India&#039;s
Sovereign AI future and strengthen its leadership in the age of Artificial
Intelligence&quot;— Piyush Somani Promoter, Managing Director and Chairman ESDS
Software Solution Ltd.

ESDS
owns and operates the physical servers, storage and networks that Swaraj Cloud
runs on. It is not a rebranded or resold foreign cloud service. Workloads
processed on Swaraj Cloud are designed to remain within Indian borders, under
Indian law, seeking to minimise foreign legal exposure on data.

Prompt
to Production: Redefining How Cloud Infrastructure Is Built

The
defining capability of Swaraj Cloud at launch is its Prompt-to-Production
Solution Generator, a deployment engine designed to be a distinctive
offering among Indian cloud platforms. An enterprise describes its requirement
in plain language or through a guided input wizard. Swaraj Cloud&#039;s AI layer
translates that input into a validated cloud architecture, maps it against
applicable compliance frameworks including BFSI regulatory requirements,
generates a complete Bill of Materials with line-item INR pricing and
auto-deploys the entire environment in a single, uninterrupted automated run.

The
complete workflow runs across six automated stages: requirements input,
architecture recommendation with a visual preview, Bill of Materials generation
in INR, compliance mapping and validation, auto-deployment of all components in
sequence and a live billing preview the moment the environment goes live. The
enterprise sees the architecture before a single resource is provisioned. It
sees the cost before a single rupee is charged. And it receives a fully
operational, compliance-validated cloud environment without a single
infrastructure configuration step performed manually.

For
Indian enterprises where procurement cycles, infrastructure provisioning
timelines and compliance validation have historically been multi-week
exercises, Prompt-to-Production is designed to compress that journey into
minutes. It is a highly differentiated capability of the platform at launch and
a clear expression of Swaraj Cloud&#039;s AI-autonomous design philosophy.

&quot;Every
regulated enterprise in India has been navigating a difficult trade-off,
capable cloud infrastructure that does not meet sovereignty requirements, or
sovereign infrastructure that does not meet capability requirements. Swaraj
Cloud is built to remove that trade-off. With Prompt-to-Production, built-in
compliance monitoring, and a sovereign AI platform, enterprises now have a
single platform that meets regulatory obligations and operational demands
without compromise.&quot;

Komal
Somani, Whole-time Director, ESDS Software Solution Ltd.

Beyond
the Solution Generator, Swaraj Cloud launches with a service portfolio spanning
the full enterprise cloud stack. The Enlight AIOps platform provides
GPU-enabled virtual machines for AI model training, managed Jupyter Notebooks,
fine-tuning-as-a-service, automated MLOps pipelines, model governance, drift
detection, built-in AI safety controls and a [library of 20+ pre-built industry
models all running on Indian infrastructure. Infrastructure services include a
multi-hypervisor IaaS platform with Software-Defined Networking, DDoS
protection and elastic IP management; Managed Kubernetes Service; an
OCI-compliant Container Registry with automated vulnerability scanning; and
agentless VM backup with point-in-time restore. Security operations are
supported by a built-in SIEM platform with MITRE ATT&amp;CK threat
categorisation and CERT-In breach notification integration.
Compliance-as-a-Service is embedded natively into the platform providing
continuous monitoring against PCI DSS, NIST and TSC (Trust Service Criteria)
frameworks, automated compliance scoring across all provisioned resources and
one-click audit evidence export. Billing is managed entirely in Indian Rupees,
with real-time usage dashboards, resource-level cost breakdowns and an
in-platform billing calculator. A cloud marketplace with one-click deployment
and a developer platform with multi-language SDKs, CLI tooling and an
interactive API documentation portal complete the launch offering.

Swaraj
Cloud is available immediately to Indian enterprises across Government, PSU,
BFSI and regulated sectors. The platform is MeitY-empanelled and DPDP
Act-aligned. Enterprises can access the platform at www.esds.co.in/swaraj-cloud
or by contacting ESDS at 1800-209-3006.

<title>KOSMODERMA OPENS IN BASAVESHWARA NAGAR, World&#45;Class Cosmetic Dermatology. Right in Your Neighborhood</title>

<description><![CDATA[ KOSMODERMA
— A LEGACY IN NUMBERS

For
two decades, Kosmoderma has redefined aesthetic medicine in India — not through
marketing, but through measurable outcomes, clinical discipline, and the quiet
trust of over two lakh patients. The numbers below speak to a standard of care
that is now arriving in Basaveshwara Nagar.

20
Yrs of Clinical Excellence — Est. 2006 by Dr. Chytra V Anand

2.26

#1
Cosmetic Derm Brand — India&#039;s most trusted

BASAVESHWARA
NAGAR — WHO WE ARE COMING TO SERVE

Basaveshwara
Nagar is not simply a pin code on a map. It is one of West Bangalore&#039;s most
established, educated, and aspirational residential neighborhoods — home to
multi-generational families, working professionals, and a growing base of
health-aware individuals who have long sought expert dermatological care
without the burden of cross-city commutes.

Kosmoderma&#039;s
own patient data reveals that West Bangalore — spanning Basaveshwara Nagar,
Rajajinagar, Vijayanagar, and Malleshwaram — has generated a significant and
consistent volume of new patient registrations over the past five years. The
opening of this clinic is a direct response to that demonstrated demand.

Skin
&amp; Hair Concerns:

●       
Melasma &amp; pigmentation aggravated by
Bangalore&#039;s changing UV index

●       
Hormonal acne &amp; post-acne scarring among
working-age adults

●       
Hair thinning &amp; hair fall worsened by hard
borehole water

●       
Fine lines &amp; early ageing in the 30–45 age
cohort

●       
Laser hair reduction — highest demand among
women aged 22–40

●       
Body concerns: localized fat, skin laxity
post-pregnancy &amp; weight fluctuation

OUR
FOOTPRINT IN WEST BANGALORE — BEFORE WE EVEN OPENED

Even
before a single appointment was booked at the Basaveshwara Nagar clinic, the
community had already found Kosmoderma — travelling across the city to visit
our existing locations. The data from our CRM and patient records tells a story
of trust extended across distance.

7,890+
Patients from West Bangalore — Treated at existing Kosmoderma clinics

90%+
Satisfaction Rate — Rated treatment outcome as &#039;Excellent&#039; or &#039;Very Good&#039;

78%
Repeat Visits — Patients who returned for additional treatments

4.8
/ 5 Average Rating — Google &amp; internal patient feedback

62%
Referral-Driven Walk-ins — Came via family or friend recommendations

3x
Growth in West BLR Demand — Patient registrations over last 3 years

These
are not abstract statistics. They represent 7,890 individuals who trusted Kosmoderma
enough to travel for pigmentation treatments, for hair restoration protocols,
for the confidence that only certified dermatologist-led care can deliver. The
new clinic simply removes the distance from that trust.

THE
MARKET OPPORTUNITY — INDIA&#039;S AESTHETIC MEDICINE LANDSCAPE

India&#039;s
aesthetic medicine industry is at a genuine inflection point. The convergence
of rising incomes, digital awareness, reduced social stigma around cosmetic
care, and a post-pandemic shift toward personal well-being has created
conditions for extraordinary market expansion.

USD
3B+ India Aesthetics Market — Projected size within 3–4 years

13–15%
Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) — One of Asia&#039;s fastest-growing sectors

USD
11B Asia-Pacific Market — By 2028, India will be among the top contributors

68%
Patients Under 45 — Younger demographic driving demand

40%+
Market in Tier-1 Cities — Bangalore among the top 3 markets nationally

3x
Dermatology Visits — Increase in urban India since 2020

Bangalore
represents one of the three most significant aesthetic medicine markets in
India, alongside Mumbai and Delhi. West Bangalore alone — historically
underserved by premium cosmetic dermatology brands — represents a catchment
area of approximately 8–10 lakh residents with demonstrably high healthcare
expenditure and aesthetic awareness. The Basaveshwara Nagar clinic positions
Kosmoderma to capture and serve this market with the clinical authority that no
other brand in India currently matches.

LEADERSHIP
VISION — THE FUTURE WE ARE BUILDING

What
does it mean to lead India&#039;s most trusted cosmetic dermatology brand into the
next decade? Four leaders. Four distinct visions. One shared conviction: that
every person — regardless of where they live — deserves access to world-class,
dermatologist-led skin and hair care.

Dr.
Chytra V Anand

Founder
&amp; Chief Executive Officer, Kosmoderma

&quot;To
be the Cosmetic Dermatology Brand That India — and the World — Trusts
Most&quot;

When
I founded Kosmoderma in 2006, the vision was never simply to build a chain of
clinics. It was to raise the standard of what patients could expect from
cosmetic dermatology — in India and eventually beyond.

Today,
as we open our 13th clinic in Bangalore, I think about what the next 20 years
must look like. My vision is global — not in the sense of geography alone, but
in the standard of care we deliver. The world&#039;s best aesthetic clinics —
whether in Seoul, London, or New York — share one thing: an uncompromising
commitment to clinical outcomes over commercial shortcuts.

My
vision for Kosmoderma is to be in that global conversation — not as a brand
trying to match international standards, but as the institution that sets them
for a billion-person market that the world has underestimated.

Every
clinic we open — including this one — must answer one question: Are we making
the patient safer, better-informed, and more confident in their outcome? If the
answer is yes, we expand. If not, we pause and improve. That discipline has
kept us India&#039;s No. 1 for 20 years. It will take us to the world stage in the
next 20.

The
Basaveshwara Nagar clinic is not just the 13th dot on a Bangalore map. It is
one more proof point that clinical integrity and business growth are not in
conflict — they are, in fact, the same thing.

Tanuushka
K Lal

Chief
Operating Officer, Kosmoderma

&quot;Operational
Excellence as a Patient Right — Not a Brand Promise&quot;

In
global healthcare leadership, we often speak of scalability. The harder
question — the one most organizations avoid — is: how do you scale without
diluting? My vision for Kosmoderma is to answer that question definitively and
to do so at a standard that would be recognized in any boardroom in Singapore,
Switzerland, or San Francisco.

We
have already done something that very few aesthetic brands in Asia have
achieved: we earned NABH accreditation for our Lavelle Road clinic — the first
aesthetic clinic in India to do so. That was not a marketing decision. It was
an operational declaration. It said, &quot;We hold ourselves to the same
accountability frameworks as the best hospitals in the world.&quot;

My
vision is an organization where every clinical protocol, every hygiene check,
every staff training, and every patient interaction is governed by systems so
robust that no individual clinic can fall below the standard — no matter which
city, which floor, or which team.

Internationally,
we are watching healthcare brands like Mayo Clinic and Apollo Hospitals
demonstrate that scale and quality are not enemies. They are partners when the
infrastructure behind them is built with rigor. That is the Kosmoderma I am
building.

●       
Standardized clinical SOPs across all 13+
Bangalore clinics and national locations

●       
Real-time patient outcome tracking integrated
into every treatment pathway

●       
A talent development pipeline that produces
India&#039;s finest aesthetic dermatology practitioners

●       
Operational systems capable of supporting 50
clinics with the same discipline as one

Basaveshwara
Nagar opens under that vision. And every clinic that follows will carry it
forward.

Dr.
Soumitra Das

National
Head — Marketing &amp; Sales, Kosmoderma

&quot;Making
India the Global Benchmark for Accessible, Expert Aesthetic Care&quot;

When
we look at the global aesthetics market — USD 15+ billion and growing — the
narrative has long been dominated by Western and East Asian players. South
Korea has built a dermatology tourism empire. The United States leads in
technology adoption. The United Kingdom is in regulatory benchmarking.

India
has been conspicuously absent from that global leadership conversation. I
believe Kosmoderma is positioned to change that — and not in a decade, but now.

My
vision is for India to become the world&#039;s most respected destination for
evidence-based aesthetic dermatology — and for Kosmoderma to be the brand that
puts India on that map. We have the clinical talent. We have the technology. We
have the patient volumes that no single market in the world can match. What we
now need is the confidence to own that position globally.

West
Bangalore is a microcosm of that larger ambition. With 7,890+ patients already
trusting us from this catchment area, a 90%+ satisfaction rate, and a 3x growth
in demand over three years, the data does not lie. People are not looking for
cheap options. They are looking for expert care. And Kosmoderma is the only
brand in India currently delivering that at this scale.

My
vision for the next five years encompasses three strategic pillars:

●       
National Reach: Expanding to 100+ clinics
across Tier-1 and Tier-2 Indian cities by 2030

●       
Global Visibility: Positioning Kosmoderma as a
reference brand in international dermatology and aesthetic medicine forums

●       
Digital Leadership: Building India&#039;s most
trusted cosmetic dermatology platform — education, diagnosis, and care —
integrated seamlessly for the modern patient

The
Basaveshwara Nagar clinic opening is the latest chapter in that story. But it
is far from the last.

Dr.
Nistha

Medical
Head, Kosmoderma

&quot;Outcomes
That Speak. Patients Who Return. Science That Never Compromises.&quot;

In
clinical medicine, the only currency that truly matters is outcome. Not the
elegance of a clinic&#039;s interior. Not the brand value of the equipment
installed. Not the price of a treatment package. The question that keeps me
committed to this work — every single day — is simple: Did this patient&#039;s life
genuinely improve because they chose Kosmoderma?

With
over 2.26 lakh patients treated, a 90%+ satisfaction rate, and a return patient
rate of 78% from West Bangalore alone, the clinical answer is yes. But my
vision demands that we never become comfortable with that answer. Outcomes must
improve. Science must evolve. And our protocols must reflect both.

I
envision a Kosmoderma Medical Practice that is internationally peer-reviewed —
where our treatment outcomes, our complication rates, our patient satisfaction
indices, and our clinical protocols are published, compared, and respected in
dermatology literature worldwide. Where our medical heads are not just skilled
practitioners but contributors to the global science of skin and hair.

That
vision begins at the patient level — at the first consultation. Here is what
every patient who walks into the Basaveshwara Nagar clinic will experience,
without exception:

●       
A certified dermatologist — never a technician
— conducts the initial consultation and diagnosis

●       
A personalized treatment plan built around the
individual&#039;s medical history, skin type, lifestyle, and goals

●       
US FDA-approved technologies, applied with
protocols that minimize risk and maximize efficacy

●       
Structured follow-up to track outcomes — not
assumed, but documented and measured

●       
Zero upselling. If a treatment is not
clinically indicated, it is not recommended.

Hair
fall treated without understanding its cause is not treatment — it is a delay.
Pigmentation addressed without understanding its trigger will return within
months. My vision is a clinic where patients never have to return because a
problem was mismanaged. They return because they trust us completely — and
because they see results that justify that trust.

That
is the standard. That is the service outcome. That is Kosmoderma.

<title>Behind Every Smooth Journey Is a Story of Unyielding Spirit: Deepika Negi of BizareXpedition</title>
<link>https://en.newsbolt.in/behind-every-smooth-journey-is-a-story-of-unyielding-spirit-deepika-negi-of-bizarexpedition</link>
<guid>https://en.newsbolt.in/behind-every-smooth-journey-is-a-story-of-unyielding-spirit-deepika-negi-of-bizarexpedition</guid>
<description><![CDATA[ Leaving behind a stable corporate career, this woman decided to do
something for her hometown. Guided by her mother’s teachings, Deepika is now a
successful entrepreneur- a name that echoes in the travel industry!

Deepika Negi was denied vendor contracts. &quot;How will a woman survive in a
male-led industry?&quot;

Recalls Deepika, the foundation behind one of the most successful
travel operators. She says it is very odd for people to accept a woman in the
male-led travel industry. Building a business is not the issue, but the
unyielding ratio of male to female is. Nobody believes in you, neither the
vendors nor the travellers. 

One such journey belongs to Deepika Negi, Founder of BizareXpedition, whose path from Pauri Garhwal to a successful company reflects
persistence and quiet leadership. 

This story takes a closer look at Deepika’s resilience. What went
behind the idea, the roadblocks, and the experiences that helped shape her
journey. How she conquered the mountains (quite literally). 

From Humble Hills to Entrepreneurship Heights



Growing up, I have always seen my uncle and elder brothers doing the
negotiations, travel bookings, and never in my life had I met a travel agent
who was a woman. I was always taken by the idea of a woman in charge of others’
trips. But that was never the case. 

These intrusive questions went blurry when I lost my father at a
tender age, and after that, life took a U-turn, says Deepika.

For me, now the focus was on completing my studies and getting a good
job to help my mother back at home. She was a Government teacher, and it was
her ideologies that instilled this self-confidence in me.

I did a double master&#039;s, the first time in history, and then a
master&#039;s in Tourism at the HNB Garhwal University. And soon landed a job in Cox
and Kings, Kuoni, and SITA. But that question remained in my head, and finding
the answer led me here. 

The personal connection with the hills, the will to help locals get
work, and the belief to shatter male-networked industry became essential for
Deepika, and thus began the BizareXpedition journey. 



The Road to the Dream

The transition from a high-paying job to square one was a thrilling
one. But had I not left it, I wouldn’t be here employing hundreds of dreamers
just like me, says Deepika. Her colourful career gave her an upper hand in
inbound tourism, which she later used in building her own brand.

Driven by a desire to explore beyond the familiar, she founded
BizareXpedition in 2014, a time when most people were unsure of starting
something of their own. Establishing and running a women-led travel operator
was more than an achievement for a girl from a small town in Uttarakhand. 

On Uneven Roads: How Challenges Shaped a Woman’s Journey in the Travel
Industry 

Deepika’s travel brand strives for smooth journeys and hassle-free
travel itineraries. But for her, the road to building this brand was never an
easy one, both literally and metaphorically. 


Coming from a small town posed geographical and logistical challenges
in the initial years. While the region offered a closer connection with hill
tourism, it also meant slower networks and limited access. And for a woman in a
gender-skewed industry, these issues were even more amplified. 

“I was judged for who I was and not what I can do”, says Deepika.
There was one time when a vendor cancelled on me because he found it odd to do
business with a woman. She is now working with more than a dozen vendors who
not only believe in her vision but also stand by it. Being in the male-centric
industry comes with skepticism, which challenged my credibility, but I never
gave up. 

She explains that challenging times moulded her journey. Be it vendor
negotiations or on-ground operations, I was put to the test time and again. But
the only thing that persisted during these harsh situations was my
‘determination’ to become a successful woman entrepreneur. My mother’s words
echoed in my ears whenever I wanted to give up, and I am happy I never did!

A Journey Beyond Destinations 

Deepika’s story highlights the truth behind every profession which
runs on gender roles and not capabilities. After struggling for almost a
decade, she is now a proud CEO. She not only answered the questions she had as
a child, but also defied gender norms. 

“When a traveller comes back with not only photographs, but also with
stories, emotions, and a sense of belonging, that is when I realise that we
have really created value”, says Deepika.

The same girl who never saw a female travel agent is now the reason
many young girls are choosing entrepreneurship in the region. She is now an
icon for many like her.

<title>Jaipur&#45;Based EV Charging Startup ChargeJet Launches App&#45;Free Charging, Letting Drivers Scan, Pay, and Charge Instantly Without Downloads</title>
<link>https://en.newsbolt.in/jaipur-based-ev-charging-startup-chargejet-launches-app-free-charging-letting-drivers-scan-pay-and-charge-instantly-without-downloads</link>
<guid>https://en.newsbolt.in/jaipur-based-ev-charging-startup-chargejet-launches-app-free-charging-letting-drivers-scan-pay-and-charge-instantly-without-downloads</guid>
<description><![CDATA[ Jaipur, Rajasthan : ChargeJet, a Jaipur-based
ultra-fast electric vehicle (EV) charging network startup, has officially
announced the launch of its App-Free Charging feature, enabling electric
vehicle owners across India to charge their vehicles without downloading a
mobile application. The new feature is designed to eliminate the friction
points associated with public EV charging and deliver a faster, simpler, and
more intuitive experience for all EV users.

A Seamless Three-Step Experience: Scan,
Pay, Charge

At the heart of ChargeJet&#039;s new innovation
lies a simple, three-step process designed for convenience. Upon arriving at a
ChargeJet charging station, EV drivers simply connect the charging gun, scan
the QR code displayed on the charger using their phone camera, and complete a
secure payment via any UPI or digital payment platform.

Once the payment is completed, charging
begins instantly without the need to download an app, create an account, fill
out lengthy forms, or maintain a pre-loaded wallet balance. The entire process,
from arrival to active charging, takes only a few seconds, making public EV
charging as seamless and effortless as any everyday digital payment
transaction.

This approach draws directly from one of
India&#039;s most transformative digital shifts, the mainstream adoption of QR-based
payments. With hundreds of millions of Indians already comfortable scanning QR
codes for everyday transactions, ChargeJet is leveraging a familiar behavioural
habit to remove one of the most cited barriers in public EV charging.

Addressing a Critical Gap in India&#039;s
Growing EV Ecosystem

India&#039;s electric mobility landscape is
expanding at a remarkable pace. Fuelled by rising fuel prices, increasing
environmental awareness, and robust government support for EV adoption through
initiatives such as the FAME India programme, the number of electric vehicles
on Indian roads has grown significantly in recent years. However, this rapid
growth has also cast a spotlight on a persistent and unresolved challenge: the
inconvenience of accessing public charging infrastructure.

Traditional EV charging networks typically
require users to download a dedicated mobile application, register with
personal information, complete identity verification, and in many cases
pre-load a wallet balance before they can initiate even their very first
charging session. For a driver who needs to urgently charge their vehicle, or
who is using a particular network for the first time, this multi-step
onboarding process can be deeply frustrating. In certain scenarios, the effort
required to register on a new charging platform is enough to deter first-time
users from public charging altogether, creating a tangible barrier to wider EV
adoption across the country.

ChargeJet&#039;s App-Free Charging directly
addresses this challenge by removing all onboarding requirements and granting
users immediate, frictionless access the moment they arrive at a station.

Founder&#039;s Vision: Simplicity as the
Foundation for EV Adoption

Anirudh Krishan Vaishnav, Founder of
ChargeJet, has long maintained that the future of EV infrastructure must go
beyond simply adding more stations; it must also ensure those stations are
genuinely easy to use for every driver, regardless of technical comfort or
familiarity with digital platforms.

&quot;At ChargeJet, we believe EV charging
should be as simple as making a digital payment. Our App-Free Charging feature
removes unnecessary steps and allows users to start charging instantly. This
innovation is aimed at making charging infrastructure more accessible and
improving the overall EV ownership experience across India,&quot; said
Vaishnav.

He also spoke about the broader
significance of this development for India&#039;s electric mobility goals. &quot;The
future of EV charging lies in simplicity and accessibility. By eliminating the
need for app downloads, we are reducing barriers for first-time users and
making public charging easier for every EV owner,&quot; he added.

By aligning the ChargeJet experience with
payment habits that Indians already practise daily, the company aims to make EV
charging feel less like a technical process and more like a seamless, everyday
transaction, familiar, frictionless, and fast.

Key Benefits of the App-Free Charging
Feature

The newly launched App-Free Charging
feature delivers a range of practical advantages designed to benefit drivers at
every stage of their charging journey:


 Instant QR-Based Access: Users scan
     the QR code at the charger to initiate a session without prior
     registration or account setup. 
 Secure Digital Payments: All
     transactions are processed through trusted digital payment gateways,
     ensuring reliable and safe payments every time. 
 No App Downloads Required: Drivers
     can access ChargeJet&#039;s network without installing any application or
     consuming storage space on their devices. 
 No Wallet Balance to Maintain:
     Unlike many platforms, ChargeJet does not require users to pre-load or
     track a dedicated wallet balance, simplifying the payment experience
     considerably. 
 Faster Session Start Times: The
     streamlined process significantly cuts the time between a driver arriving
     at the station and actively charging their vehicle. 


ChargeJet&#039;s Expanding Presence in
India&#039;s EV Infrastructure Space

Founded in Jaipur, Rajasthan, ChargeJet has
steadily built its standing as one of India&#039;s emerging ultra-fast EV charging
startups. Driven by a strong commitment to technology, reliability, and
customer convenience, the company has positioned itself at the intersection of
smart infrastructure and user-centred design. Its expanding network of charging
stations reflects a deliberate focus on strategic location placement,
high-performance charging speeds, and a consistently smooth user experience
from arrival to departure.

The launch of App-Free Charging marks a key
milestone in ChargeJet&#039;s growth, reinforcing the company&#039;s conviction that
building great EV infrastructure is as much about removing barriers as it is
about adding stations. As India presses forward on its journey toward cleaner
and greener transportation, ChargeJet&#039;s latest innovation makes a clear
statement: the next chapter of EV charging in India will be defined not only by
speed and coverage, but by simplicity and inclusivity for every driver on the
road.

About ChargeJet

ChargeJet is a Jaipur-based ultra-fast EV
charging network focused on building reliable, accessible, and high-performance
charging infrastructure across India. The company is committed to accelerating
electric mobility adoption through innovative technology solutions, strategic
partnerships, and a growing network of charging stations designed for the
modern EV user. ]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[ 1
July 2026 | Tokyo, Japan :  In
a rare honour reflecting the growing depth, maturity, and strategic importance
of India–Japan relations, Professor C. Raj Kumar, Founding Vice Chancellor of
O.P. Jindal Global University (JGU), and Dr. Shashi Tharoor, Member of
Parliament, India, addressed a distinguished bipartisan gathering of Members of
the National Diet of Japan at the National Diet Building in Tokyo. Their
addresses highlighted the complementary roles of higher education and
parliamentary diplomacy in advancing one of Asia’s most important democratic
partnerships through research, innovation, academic collaboration, and
people-to-people engagement.

The
significance of the interaction was heightened by coinciding with the official
visit of the Prime Minister of Japan  Ms
Sanae Takaichi to India and the India–Japan Annual Summit with Prime Minister
Narendra Modi. As both governments continue to deepen their
Special Strategic and Global Partnership at the highest political level, the
discussions in Tokyo demonstrated that enduring bilateral relationships are
strengthened not only by governments but also by parliaments, universities,
scholars, students, industry, and civil society.

The
interaction was chaired by Mr. Fukushiro Nukaga, the 80th Speaker of
the House of Representatives of Japan, and brought together an exceptional and
bipartisan gathering of Members of the National Diet representing both the
House of Representatives and the House of Councillors. The
meeting was attended by senior parliamentary leaders, former ministers, government
representatives, eminent diplomats, distinguished academics, policy experts,
and industry leaders from across Japan. The breadth of participation reflected
Japan’s strong bipartisan commitment to strengthening parliamentary dialogue,
educational cooperation, democratic engagement, innovation, and institutional
partnerships with India.



Professor
C. Raj Kumar spoke of the indispensable role of universities in shaping the
future of international relations. He observed that institutions of higher
learning today are far more than centres of education. They are global
platforms where ideas cross borders, innovation flourishes, research addresses
common challenges, and future leaders learn to work together across cultures
and nations.

“Asia’s
evolving geopolitical landscape demonstrates that the strongest international
partnerships are patiently built through sustained investments in education,
research, technology, human capital, institutional cooperation, and innovation.
India and Japan, he said, possess a unique opportunity to deepen their
relationship further by investing in universities, scientific collaboration,
entrepreneurship, academic mobility, and knowledge partnerships,” He said. He
called for a future in which Indian and Japanese universities work even more
closely together, researchers jointly address global challenges, students move
more freely between both countries, and governments, industry, and academia
collectively develop solutions for the Indo-Pacific and beyond. Such
investments, he argued, create relationships that are resilient because they
are founded not only on policy but also on people.

Highlighting
JGU’s own engagement with Japan, Professor Raj Kumar noted that the
University’s partnerships with 27 leading Japanese institutions and the
participation of nearly 200 students in study abroad programmes across Japan
reflect a sustained institutional commitment to building long-term academic
cooperation. These partnerships have strengthened student mobility, faculty
collaboration, joint research, innovation, and intercultural understanding,
demonstrating how universities can serve as enduring bridges between nations.

Professor
Raj Kumar observed that higher education has become one of the defining pillars
of contemporary India–Japan relations because universities cultivate trust,
mutual understanding, leadership, and lifelong friendships that strengthen
bilateral cooperation across generations. 

Concluding
his address, Professor Raj Kumar remarked that if the 20th century
laid the foundations of trust between India and Japan, the 21st  century must become one in which that trust
is transformed into a comprehensive partnership driven by knowledge,
technology, sustainability, innovation, entrepreneurship, and shared democratic
values. Sharing the platform with Dr. Shashi Tharoor, he described the occasion
as a powerful affirmation of the complementary roles that higher education and
parliamentary diplomacy can play in advancing one of Asia’s most significant
strategic partnerships.

Dr.
Shashi Tharoor reflected on the equally important role of parliamentary
diplomacy and observed that diplomacy is not merely about negotiating interests
or responding to crises. At its finest, he said, diplomacy preserves
memory, reflects mutual respect, and inspires nations to imagine and build a
better future together.

Reflecting
on the centuries-old relationship between India and Japan, Dr. Tharoor said,
“The friendship between the two countries has been nurtured through Buddhism,
cultural exchange, democratic values, and deep civilisational respect. This
shared history, is not only a source of pride but also a responsibility. The
challenge before both nations is not to create a new friendship but to
continually renew and strengthen an enduring one through institutions capable
of serving future generations. While governments create strategic partnerships,
it is ultimately people who sustain them. The future of India–Japan relations
will depend as much upon the relationships built among students, scholars,
parliamentarians, entrepreneurs, artists, innovators, scientists, and citizens
as upon agreements signed by governments. These enduring human connections
transform strategic cooperation into lasting partnership.” 

Members
of the National Diet spoke warmly of their longstanding engagement with India
and expressed admiration for India’s civilisational heritage, democratic
traditions, constitutional institutions, economic transformation, and expanding
global role. They reaffirmed their commitment to strengthening parliamentary
exchanges, educational partnerships, academic collaboration, scientific
research, innovation, and people-to-people ties between the two democracies.

The
discussions reflected a shared conviction that the future of India–Japan
relations will not be shaped solely by diplomacy, economics, or security
cooperation but equally by the strength of democratic institutions,
universities, research collaborations, cultural understanding, and the
opportunities created for young people to learn from one another.

At
a time when India and Japan are engaging at the highest political level to
shape the future of their Special Strategic and Global Partnership, the
interaction in Tokyo served as a timely reminder that governments alone cannot
build enduring international relationships. Universities, parliaments,
scholars, researchers, entrepreneurs, and civil society together provide the
institutional foundations that enable strategic partnerships to flourish across
generations.

The
addresses delivered by Professor C. Raj Kumar and Dr. Shashi Tharoor marked
another important milestone in the expanding relationship between India and
Japan. They reaffirmed the central role of democratic institutions, higher
education, research, innovation, and people-to-people engagement in advancing
peace, prosperity, sustainability, and stability across the Indo-Pacific and
beyond.

interaction was chaired by Mr. Fukushiro Nukaga, the 80th Speaker of

<title>AVPN Announces New Strategy to Mobilise Capital for Asia’s USD 26&#45;Trillion Social and Environmental Transformation</title>
<link>https://en.newsbolt.in/avpn-announces-new-strategy-to-mobilise-capital-for-asias-usd-26-trillion-social-and-environmental-transformation</link>

<description><![CDATA[  

Strategy
underscores its call for Asia’s leaders to shift from participation to
leadership in advancing Asia-led solutions

INDIA,
1 JULY 2026  :  AVPN,
Asia’s largest platform for social impact, today announced a strategic
evolution of its products and community models, in response to shifts in the
global macro landscape and the growing urgency in Asia’s impact needs. The
region faces a USD 26-trillion financing need through 2030 to maintain growth,
eradicate poverty and respond to climate changes. AVPN is calling on Asia’s
philanthropists, capital holders, and government leaders to take transformative
action by shaping an Asia-led framework for how capital must be designed,
deployed and coordinated – to meet Asia’s social and environmental needs. 

India
sits at the heart of this call. As the world’s most populous country and one of
Asia’s fastest-growing economies, India’s total
funding grew at a 13% CAGR between FY20 and FY25 to roughly INR 27 lakh crore
(USD 310 billion) and is projected to reach INR 50 lakh crore (USD 570 billion)
by FY30, yet a USD 180 billion
remains between current spending and need. As a priority market, India’s
integrated capital ecosystem is increasingly driving scalable social investment
solutions throughout Asia.

Entering
its 15th year of moving capital towards Impact for Asia, this
evolution affirms AVPN’s role as an Asia-led platform that builds an impact
ecosystem rooted in on-ground realities, drives a more prosperous and inclusive
Asia, and strengthens the region’s influence on global impact action.

“Asia
can no longer be a passive participant in global impact conversations,” said Achal Agarwal,
Chair, AVPN. “This USD 26‑trillion gap is not just a
financing shortfall; it is an opportunity for Asia to design its own playbook
and lead with frameworks grounded in our realities, while shaping global
approaches for a more equitable, inclusive and prosperous future.”

Asia’s
impact landscape is entering a phase of greater complexity and urgency, with
capital pools growing, but deployment remaining fragmented across markets,
sectors and stakeholder priorities. Official Development Assistance (ODA) fell by 23.1% in
2025 with a further decline projected for 2026,
even as needs continue to rise. Global frameworks, while useful, often fail to
capture Asia’s diversity, complexity and context. Within the region’s broader
financing need, it also faces a USD 1.5 trillion annual
SDG financing gap, underscoring the need for more coordinated
capital.

Meeting
India’s SDG commitments requires an estimated  6% of GDP annually,
while climate ambitions imply over USD 22 trillion
in cumulative financing through 2070. In 2025, USD 5.29 billion in equity capital was deployed
across 256 impact-driven enterprises,
reflecting steady sectoral growth. India now has over 300 family offices
managing more than USD 30 billion in assets,
alongside expanding high-net-worth wealth creation. CSR continues to channel
billions annually into social priorities. These capital pools are growing in
scale and sophistication but require stronger systems for coordinated
deployment.

Building
on this, AVPN’s strategic evolution introduces its community model, previously
known as membership tiers, redesigned for impact at scale. This is to expand
its engagement with the impact ecosystem, such that coordination and
collaboration can be multiplied.

The
Vantage and Discovery pathways are designed to
balance breadth with depth.

●     
Vantage: A
paid, relationship-led experience designed for organisations seeking deeper
strategic engagement, dedicated support, curated connections, and leadership
opportunities.

●     
Discovery: A
flexible engagement pathway that enables organisations to access the AVPN
ecosystem and engage through a combination of complimentary and pay-per-use
opportunities.

AVPN’s
product portfolio remains focused around four thematic priorities – Climate
Action, Health Impact, Gender Equality and Economic Inclusion, which will be
activated through dynamic cross‑cutting levers such as AI, policy, impact
investing and faith‑based giving. These impact levers ensure AVPN and its
impact ecosystem continually unlock new forms of capital and innovation to meet
the rising needs of the region.

The
new strategy reinforces AVPN’s mission of translating intent into impact by
bringing together people, ideas and resources for Asia, and its vision of a
thriving impact ecosystem that drives a prosperous and inclusive Asia. AVPN
delivers this strategy through flagship convenings such as the AVPN Global
Conference and summits, pooled funds, policy dialogues and thematic‑specific
initiatives, AVPN will amplify community voices, connect unlikely allies and
catalyse coalitions that can drive systems‑level change. Current initiatives
include partnerships with Indonesia on health impact, with India on energy
transition, collaborations with the ASEAN Business Advisory Council on
corporate CSR, and work with ASEAN Ministries of Education on economic
inclusion enabled by AI and technology.

“When
Asia leads with its own frameworks, informed by local realities and grounded in
trust, partnership and mutuality, we can turn challenges into opportunities for
generations to come. Asia’s leaders must now step up. There is no time to
waste. We should not be participants in our own region; we need to be
architects of our Asia-led blueprint for impact. And, AVPN’s role as a trusted
impact ecosystem is to provide the connective tissue that allows capital to
move with confidence across borders, sectors and instruments, so that ambition
becomes action,” added Naina Subberwal Batra,
CEO, AVPN.

This
August, AVPN brings the Global Conference to India for the first time in its
thirteen-year history, convening more than 2,000 delegates at Bharat Mandapam
in New Delhi from 25 to 27 August. The decision to host in India signals AVPN&#039;s
intent to anchor the region&#039;s impact agenda where the financing challenge is
most acute and where the solutions developed carry the broadest relevance for
Asia.

Solving
Asia&#039;s social and environmental challenges demands the full continuum of
capital, where grants, debt, and equity are intentionally aligned to move
solutions from innovation to scale. Asia needs more than just diverse forms of
capital but also shared accountability among partners that reduces perceived
risk and enables actors across sectors to converge around collective outcomes.
With over 700 organisations across 43 markets, and a 15-year track record of
building Asia’s impact ecosystem, AVPN is committed to meet this challenge with
clarity and purpose for the hundreds of millions of people whose futures depend
on the region getting this right.

About
AVPN

AVPN
is Asia’s largest platform for social impact, where over 700 resource
providers, innovators and intermediaries from across 43 markets collaborate to
mobilise capital.  Grounded in deep
regional expertise and partnerships, AVPN is building a thriving ecosystem that
accelerates measurable progress toward inclusive growth, empowering Asia to
lead the way in global impact. AVPN’s mission is to translate intent into
impact by bringing together people, ideas, and resources for Asia. We do this
by strengthening partnerships, fostering open collaboration, and enabling the
coordinated flow of resources across markets and borders. Together with our
community, AVPN is building a thriving impact ecosystem that drives a
prosperous and inclusive Asia.

<title>Flipick Launches AI Video Platform That Creates, Personalizes, Delivers and Measures Effectiveness of Cinematic Video at Scale</title>
<link>https://en.newsbolt.in/flipick-launches-ai-video-platform-that-creates-personalizes-delivers-and-measures-effectiveness-of-cinematic-video-at-scale</link>

<description><![CDATA[  One
platform turns a brief into a finished, on-brand film, delivers it personally
to every viewer, and measures who watched.

Pune,
India, July 1, 2026 : Flipick,
a learning-technology company, today announced the launch of its AI video platform, an
end-to-end studio that creates cinematic, studio-grade video, distributes it
personally to every viewer, and measures the effectiveness. Where most AI tools
stop at a single clip and a download, Flipick runs the whole production job -
from a written screenplay through personalized delivery to audit-ready proof of
who watched, who finished, and who acted.

&quot;Most
tools stop at the download. We don&#039;t,&quot; said Ravi Dugal, Founder &amp;
CEO of Flipick while describing the platform. Flipick has deep roots in
enterprise learning. For 15+ years, Flipick LMS and video content creation
services have powered enterprise learning across many global companies like
Pearson, Jindal Steel, Clarivate, Indian Institute of Banking &amp; Finance
(IIBF), and more.

A
real production pipeline, run by AI

Every
Flipick video runs the same nine-stage pipeline on a single platform: write,
storyboard, generate, hold consistency, overlay, edit, localize, deliver, and
measure. The approach is deliberately storyboard-first — teams approve the
story before spending a single credit. The Screenplay Creator structures a
brief into a scene-by-scene script; the storyboard locks every shot for
sign-off; only then does the platform render. Revisions happen on the page, not
on the render bill.

Inside
the studio, five tools do
the heavy lifting:

Screenplay
Builder turns a brief into a production-ready,
scene-by-scene script with narrative arc, shot breakdowns, voiceover and
dialogue, and selectable campaign styles and pacing.

Video
Builder generates each approved shot, renders the
beats and assembles the cut, with the ability to regenerate a single beat or
shot without disturbing the rest.

Asset
Library lets organizations build a brand world once —
ambassadors, products, characters and locations — and reuse it across every
project.

Ingredients
store static building blocks such as logos, backgrounds and product shots for
assembly into personalized frames.

Overlays
composite text, logos, pricing, disclaimers and CTAs on top of the generated
video.

Consistency
raw AI can&#039;t match

Flipick&#039;s
central differentiator is consistency - the thing raw generators struggle to
do. The platform holds a presenter&#039;s face, wardrobe and a brand&#039;s products
steady across an entire film, from scene one through scene nine. Lock them
once, and they stay consistent throughout, branded and localized into any
language without re-recording.

The
Overlays system turns one master video into hundreds of variants. Teams define
variables in a spreadsheet - brand name, price, logo - and produce a named file
for each row. Because financial values live on the overlay rather than being
baked into the AI video, regulated content stays accurate and auditable, and a
single master can generate 500 brand variants for a fraction of the cost of
producing 500 separate videos.

Delivered
personally, then measured



Beyond
creation, Flipick&#039;s distribution product (VVP) renders a personal cut for each
recipient - mapping fields such as name, role, branch and language - and
delivers it by link, email, in-app, or directly through an LMS. The platform
authenticates viewer identity before playback, then tracks per-viewer
completion, drop-off and re-watch, and ties every overlay CTA to the action
that followed. The result is audit-ready proof rather than impressions: knowing
who watched, who finished, and who acted.

Transparent,
credit-based pricing

Flipick
is priced entirely in credits across its two products - AI Video Creation and
VVP Distribution — with one credit equal to ₹1, and a live calculator that
estimates any campaign before a customer spends a thing. Creation is priced per
finished minute, starting from a base of 3,300 credits per minute, while
distribution is priced per recipient and grows cheaper at scale, falling from
50 credits per recipient down to 20 at high volume. As a worked example, a
one-minute, moderately edited film delivered to 500 viewers comes to roughly
24,250 credits (about ₹24,250).

Quote
from Founder

“For
years, teams could generate a video clip but not a result - they couldn’t keep
it on brand, personalize it at scale, or measure effectiveness. We built
Flipick around the whole job.” said Ravi Dugal, Founder &amp; CEO of
Flipick.

Availability
of the Platform

The
Flipick AI video platform is available from 1st July 2026. Teams can book a
demo to take one of their own briefs from screenplay to a measured campaign. To
learn more, visit Flipick at www.flipick.com

<title>AI Era Leadership Framework Gains Global Attention as Forbes&#45;Recognized Influential Leader Harsh Sanghvi Launches Your Leadership Advantage</title>

<description><![CDATA[ Innovative
leadership thinker, author, and business scientist introduces Experiential
Leadership® framework designed to help professionals thrive in an AI-driven
world.

As
artificial intelligence continues to reshape industries, organizations are
increasingly confronting a critical question: what will distinguish exceptional
leaders when technology can automate intelligence, processes, and
decision-making at unprecedented scale?

According
to Harsh Sanghvi, a Forbes-recognized Influential Leader with Global Impact,
the answer lies in human experience.

An
alumnus of HEC Paris, IIM Calcutta, Amity, and Manipal, Sanghvi has built a
distinguished career across global enterprises, startups, and government
engagements spanning India, Europe, the United States, and the GCC. Currently
serving as Vice President, Strategy, Delivery &amp; People at Incrivelsoft LLC
and leading The Harsh Sanghvi Network (THSN) Group, he is widely recognized for
combining enterprise execution with research-driven leadership practices.

His
latest work, 

Your Leadership Advantage

,
introduces Experiential Leadership®, a proprietary framework developed to
address one of the most pressing challenges in modern workplaces: the gap
between leadership capability and leadership experience.

Experiential
Leadership® is endorsed and promoted by leaders from the United Nations (UN),
the World Economic Forum (WEF), Ernst &amp; Young (EY), JPMorgan Chase, and
Cornerstone OnDemand (CSOD), among many others.

From
Corporate Experience to Leadership Framework

The
concept of Experiential Leadership® emerged from Sanghvi’s observations across
organizations of varying sizes and sectors. While companies continue to invest
heavily in skills, technology, and operational excellence, many professionals
still struggle with engagement, collaboration, fulfillment, and sustainable
performance.

The
framework presents a different perspective by defining leadership not as
authority or hierarchy, but as the experience people create for themselves and
others. It focuses on how individuals influence the way people think, feel,
decide, and act.

Drawing
from global academic research, practical leadership experience, and timeless
wisdom from the Bhagavad Gita, Experiential Leadership® bridges professional
success with meaningful human experience. Supported by scientific research from
institutions including Harvard, Stanford, Oxford, HEC Paris, Yale, Wharton, and
IIM Bangalore, the framework is designed to be practicable across generations
while leveraging the neuroscience of happiness to help individuals and
organizations flourish.

Designed
for the AI Generation

As AI
adoption accelerates, discussions around the future of leadership have
intensified. While artificial intelligence can improve productivity and support
decision-making, Sanghvi believes that empathy, trust, purpose, emotional
intelligence, and authentic human connection will become even more valuable.

Experiential
Leadership® addresses this shift by helping individuals strengthen what Sanghvi
calls Experiential Intelligence (XI). The framework emphasizes that the future
belongs not to AI alone, but to the powerful combination of Artificial
Intelligence (AI) and Experiential Intelligence (XI), creating enhanced human
intelligence and deeper human connection.

The
framework also introduces the concept of a Leadership Guardrail, reinforcing
the idea that intelligent systems should remain guided by human values, ethics,
and intentional decision-making.

Who
Can Benefit from the Book?

Unlike
many traditional leadership books aimed primarily at executives, Your
Leadership Advantage is written for a broad audience, including:

•
Working professionals seeking career growth
• Managers and team
leaders
• Entrepreneurs and
startup founders
• Students and
emerging leaders
• Individuals seeking
greater purpose, fulfillment, and impact

The
framework is especially relevant during periods of change, leadership
development initiatives, organizational growth, career transitions, and
AI-driven workplace transformation.

The
Head–Heart–Soul–Hand Practice

At
the heart of the book lies the Head–Heart–Soul–Hand model:

•
Head: Think with clarity and intention
• Heart: Lead with
empathy and connection
• Soul: Stay anchored
in purpose and meaning
• Hand: Act with
discipline and consistency

According
to Sanghvi, Head–Heart–Soul–Hand is an integrated approach that enables individuals
to learn, adopt, and practice leadership in real time, transforming it into a
daily habit that strengthens people, process, and product capabilities
effortlessly.

More
than a framework, it serves as a way of being, a way of living, and a way of
doing—a practical operating system for life and leadership.

The
model helps individuals:

•
Bridge their leadership experience gap
• Design better
experiences for themselves and others
• Build stronger
people, processes, and products
• Create environments
where growth feels natural rather than forced
• Achieve both
Leadership Excellence and Leadership Experience Excellence

Global
Availability

Your
Leadership Advantage is available globally in paperback, hardcover, eBook, and
audiobook formats across more than 150 countries.

Readers
can access the book through Notion Press, Amazon India, Amazon Global, Amazon UK, Amazon Kindle, Flipkart, Kobo, Audible, Google Play Books, and Apple Books.

Why
Readers Are Taking Notice

As
organizations navigate rapid technological transformation, professionals are
increasingly searching for practical ways to remain relevant, respected, and
impactful.

The
book combines leadership science, behavioral insights, and actionable practices
to help readers strengthen influence, improve workplace relationships, enhance
credibility, build collaboration, adapt to the AI era, and create meaningful
experiences that drive long-term success.

By
integrating AI-era realities with deeply human leadership principles,
Experiential Leadership® offers a contemporary framework for individuals and
organizations seeking sustainable growth and impact.

Looking
Ahead

As
conversations around artificial intelligence continue to dominate boardrooms
and business strategy, leadership experts increasingly agree that technical
capability alone will not define future success.

The
ability to create trust, meaning, purpose, and positive human experiences may
become the defining leadership advantage of the coming decade.

Through
Your Leadership Advantage, Harsh Sanghvi seeks to advance a larger mission he
describes as “democratizing leadership to democratize happiness.”

<title>Inventure Academy Named Among World’s Top 10 Schools for Community Collaboration</title>

Global recognition from T4 Education’s World’s
Best School Prizes honours Inventure’s work in community collaboration and
public-private school partnerships, to create opportunities for all children to
thrive. 

Bengaluru, July 01,
2026 : Inventure Academy, Bengaluru (India Learning
Foundation) has been named among the Top 10 schools globally for the World’s
Best School Prize for Community Collaboration 2026 by T4 Education, recognising
the school’s efforts to build partnerships that strengthen learning, community
impact and nation building, creating a meaningful impact beyond its own campus.


Established in 2022,
the World’s Best School Prizes celebrate schools that are transforming lives
and sharing practices that can help improve education around the world. 

The recognition
highlights a philosophy that has shaped Inventure Academy since its founding in
2005: that schools do their best work when they learn and grow alongside the
communities they serve. 

These
collaborations have taken many forms, from initiatives such as the Change Maker
Challenge and Our Voice to musical productions, community outreach,
internships, and partnerships with civic organisations, researchers and public
institutions. Together, they have created opportunities for students and educators
to engage meaningfully with issues of public importance, contributing insights
and lived experiences to conversations around child safety and wellbeing,
educational equity, the implementation of India’s National Education Policy,
and the Right to Learn. They have also encouraged greater civic awareness of
the opportunities and challenges facing the city, including questions of
mobility, infrastructure and access, helping elevate the voices of young people
in discussions about the future of their communities. Through performances,
campaigns and community events, the Inventure community has also helped
mobilise awareness and resources for its partner schools, extending learning
and social impact beyond the classroom.

One of the most
significant examples of this approach has been its partnership with the
Government Higher Primary School, Ramagondanahalli (RGH), launched in 2019 in
collaboration with the Karnataka Department of Public Instruction and
Whitefield Rising. 

Over the past five
years, enrolment at the school has increased from fewer than 200 to almost
1,200, with a further 350 students on the waitlist. The first three Grade 10
cohorts recorded a

100 per cent board
examination pass rate, while independent ASER assessments showed learning
outcomes well above State averages and, in some grades, among the highest in
the country. Over this period, Inventure enabled the recruitment of 40 teachers
at RGH and today sustains a total of 64 teachers across its community schools. 

In 2024, the Ramagondanahalli partnership was
extended for a further 10 years, with Inventure committing more than ₹44 crore
(approximately US$5.1 million) towards the programme’s operations and
implementation over the next decade. Building on this success, in 2025,
Inventure, together with Prestige Group and the Navodaya Foundation, expanded
the model to three additional government schools in partnership with the
Karnataka Department of School Education: Government Tamil Higher Primary
School, Thimmaiah Road, Shivajinagar; Government Urdu Model School,
Siddahosanahalli, near the Yeshwanthpur campus; and Government Higher Primary
School, Kodathi, near the Whitefield-Sarjapur campus. Prestige Group has
committed ₹62.28 crore (approximately US$7.2 million) over the next decade
towards these partnerships, while the Navodaya Foundation has committed ₹1.5
crore (approximately US$175,000) over the first three years. Together, these
commitments take the combined long-term investment across Inventure’s community
school ecosystem to more than ₹108 crore (approximately US$12.6 million). 



Beyond its community school partnerships,
Inventure’s wider ecosystem includes collaborations with civic organisations,
research institutions and global networks, including B.PAC, Whitefield Rising,
IIT Gandhinagar, the New York Academy of Sciences, Prayoga, Round Square and
the European Organisation for Nuclear Research (CERN). These partnerships
create opportunities for students and educators to engage with real-world
questions and contribute to communities beyond the classroom. 

Commenting on the recognition, Irfan Razack,
Founder &amp; Chairman, Inventure Academy, (India Learning Foundation) and
Chairman &amp; Managing Director, Prestige Group, said: 

“This recognition is a reminder that the true
measure of a school lies not only in the success of its own students, but in
the difference it makes to the communities around it. From the very beginning,
Inventure was envisioned as an institution that would contribute beyond its own
campus, and our work with community schools reflects that enduring commitment.
Seeing that vision recognised on a global stage is deeply gratifying, but even
more importantly, it strengthens our resolve to continue building partnerships
that expand opportunity for every child.” 

Nooraine Fazal, Founder
and Managing Trustee of Inventure Academy (India Learning Foundation), added: 

&quot;This recognition belongs to the many
communities that have shaped and strengthened Inventure over the years. We have
always believed that schools can be far more than places where children learn.
They can be catalysts for connection, opportunity and positive change. When
schools, families, communities and public institutions come together around a
shared purpose, extraordinary things become possible for our youth.

This recognition affirms our belief that
education achieves its greatest impact when it extends beyond the walls of a
school and contributes to the well-being and success of the wider community. We
are honoured to share this recognition with the students, educators, families,
partners and communities who have made this journey possible. We hope it
encourages more schools and communities to work together to strengthen
educational ecosystems, nurture changemakers, and create a more equitable and
sustainable future for all.” 

The Top 10 shortlist was selected from
thousands of applications worldwide. Winners of the five World’s Best School
Prizes will be announced later this year by T4 Education’s Judging Academy. 

The
shortlisted schools are also eligible for the Community Choice Award,
determined through a public vote.

<description><![CDATA[ Mumbai, India, 30 June 2026: After announcing its India entry with a ₹100 crore investment
commitment, US-headquartered Evolution Cloud Services (EVOCS)’ Indian entity
Velloe hosted an exclusive leadership roundtable and launch event in Mumbai,
bringing together government representatives, technology leaders, channel
partners and industry stakeholders to discuss the future of AI infrastructure
and digital transformation in India.

The event was graced by Shri Ashish Shelar, Hon’ble Minister of
Information Technology and Cultural Affairs, Government of Maharashtra, who
congratulated the Velloe leadership team on bringing global technology
expertise to India and creating new-age employment opportunities across
Maharashtra and the country.

Speaking at the event, Shri Ashish Shelar highlighted Maharashtra’s
commitment towards strengthening its technology ecosystem and enabling faster
adoption of digital solutions. He also spoke about the launch of the Maha AI
platform, an initiative aimed at empowering administrative teams with
AI-enabled capabilities to improve efficiency, accelerate workflows and create
a faster internal governance ecosystem.

“Technology and AI will play a critical role in shaping the future of
governance, businesses and employment opportunities. Maharashtra continues to
focus on creating an ecosystem that encourages innovation, improves efficiency
and attracts global technology capabilities. We welcome organisations like

<title>Brands That Don&amp;apos;t Fix Their Positioning Will Continue to See Their CAC Rising, Says BrandLoom</title>
<link>https://en.newsbolt.in/brands-that-dont-fix-their-positioning-will-continue-to-see-their-cac-rising-says-brandloom</link>
<guid>https://en.newsbolt.in/brands-that-dont-fix-their-positioning-will-continue-to-see-their-cac-rising-says-brandloom</guid>
<description><![CDATA[ New Delhi, India — June 30, 2026  : The CAC crisis gripping digital marketers today is being fundamentally
misdiagnosed, argues BrandLoom, a growth-focused
branding and digital consulting firm.
Brands with weak, undifferentiated positioning will see their CAC continue to
rise, and their margins shrink, says BrandLoom.

A study shows that 84% of companies are stuck in a brand
&quot;doom loop,&quot; a cycle in which underfunded measurement leads to
unclear impact, rising skepticism, and tighter budgets.

&quot;Businesses keep looking for the answer in their
channel mix or their bid strategy,&quot; said Avinash Chandra,
Founder and CEO of BrandLoom.
&quot;But when positioning is unclear, you end up talking to everyone and
converting no one. The media spend becomes a tax on the absence of
differentiation.&quot;

The CAC Inflation Is a Brand Problem, Not A Media Problem

Google and Meta CPCs have been rising sharply year on year.
Average conversion rates across industries sit at just two to three percent.
B2B purchase decisions now involve six to ten decision-makers, stretching sales
cycles and compounding acquisition costs at every stage.

But BrandLoom points to a less visible force driving CAC
inflation that media optimization cannot fix. When brands carry generic
messaging, compete on price by default, and chase channel performance before
establishing what they stand for, they create a structural inefficiency that
compounds over time.

Every rupee spent on reach amplifies a message that does not
differentiate. Every conversion arrives harder and costs more than it should.

&quot;The real CAC culprits are strategic, not
tactical,&quot; Chandra said. &quot;Talking to everyone, competing on price,
chasing channels before clarifying the message, these are positioning failures.
And you cannot solve a positioning failure by optimizing your CPM.&quot;

Strong Positioning Helps Reduce CAC and Improve Revenue Over
Time

The financial case for brand positioning is more concrete
than most marketing conversations acknowledge.

Strongly positioned brands command price premiums over
undifferentiated competitors. Companies with clearly defined positioning grow
faster.

Referrals, the most direct output of brand trust, carry a
significantly higher lifetime value than leads from other channels.

These are acquisition economics, not vanity metrics.

&quot;Brand authority is a CAC multiplier,&quot; Chandra
said. &quot;It does not just make your marketing feel better. It makes your
entire acquisition engine structurally more efficient. The best-positioned
brands are also, almost without exception, the most capital-efficient acquirers
of customers.&quot;

The Positioning Failures Driving CAC Up

BrandLoom has identified a consistent set of positioning
failures it sees across growth-stage and enterprise organizations. Broad
audience profiles with no defined Ideal Customer Profile. Messaging built
around features and capabilities rather than measurable outcomes.

Inconsistent communication across platforms erodes brand
recognition rather than building it. Bold claims with no proof points attached.
And perhaps most damaging, a heavy investment in reach before establishing what
the brand actually stands for.

&quot;If you removed your logo from your website, your
social media, and your sales deck, would anyone know it was you?&quot; Chandra
said. &quot;If the answer is no, you do not have a media problem. You have a
positioning problem. And that is what is driving your CAC.&quot;

BrandLoom&#039;s Five-Step Positioning Framework: From Brand
Clarity to CAC Reduction

BrandLoom&#039;s approach to reducing CAC through positioning is
built on a five-step framework: Research, Define, Articulate, Align, and
Measure, beginning with a rigorous audit of customer interviews, win-loss
analysis, the competitive landscape, and internal surveys to establish the
strategic foundation.

Critically, BrandLoom treats positioning not as a marketing
deliverable but as a company-wide strategic anchor. When positioning is clear,
it aligns sales, product, marketing, and leadership around a single coherent
narrative, creating a fundamentally more efficient growth system, not just
better advertising.

Within BrandLoom&#039;s AIM Growth Architecture, positioning
clarity is the prerequisite for strategic alignment. Without it, integration
amplifies noise. With it, every initiative, paid, organic, and content referral
compounds toward the same outcome.

&quot;Positioning is not a tagline or a logo refresh. It is
the strategic declaration of the unique space your brand owns in the customer&#039;s
mind,&quot; Chandra said. &quot;When that space is clearly held, the entire
economics of growth changes.&quot;

<description><![CDATA[ Mumbai,
June 30th , 2026: The Bombay Chamber of Commerce &amp;
Industry, India&#039;s oldest chamber of commerce, ushered in a new chapter at its
190th Annual General Meeting, with Sudhanshu Vats, Managing Director, Pidilite,
assuming office as President for 2026–27. Outlining a bold roadmap centred on
artificial intelligence, MSME transformation, and Mumbai&#039;s global
competitiveness, Vats called for the Chamber to evolve into a &quot;capability
engine&quot; that accelerates business growth while strengthening its role in
shaping public policy.

Addressing
members, Vats said, &quot;As we celebrate the 190th year of the Bombay Chamber,
one thing stands out clearly: our relevance has never come from standing
still—but from evolving with purpose.&quot;

Building
on the Chamber&#039;s existing theme of Innovation, Inclusion and Impact, Vats
outlined three strategic priorities for the year ahead: placing Mumbai and
Maharashtra at the centre of the Chamber&#039;s agenda, empowering MSMEs through
artificial intelligence, and transforming the Chamber itself through AI-enabled
member services and policy engagement.



Highlighting
Mumbai&#039;s importance to India&#039;s growth story, he said, &quot;Our ambition is
clear: to make Mumbai one of the world&#039;s most competitive and future-ready
economic centres of the 21st century.&quot;

On
MSMEs, Vats emphasised that while Maharashtra&#039;s one crore MSMEs are the
backbone of the state&#039;s economy, they must now become technology-enabled
enterprises. &quot;Our vision is to help MSMEs compete not as small players,
but as intelligent, tech-enabled enterprises,&quot; he said, announcing
initiatives to simplify compliance, improve access to finance, and democratise
enterprise-grade capabilities using artificial intelligence.

He
also announced that the Chamber itself would embrace AI by deploying
intelligent digital agents to provide continuous member engagement, deliver
data-driven policy insights and create an always-on advisory ecosystem.
&quot;As we call upon industry to transform, we must transform ourselves,&quot;
he remarked.

Paying
tribute to outgoing President Rajiv Anand, Managing Director and CEO, IndusInd
Bank, Vats acknowledged his leadership during a challenging global environment,
stating, &quot;Your clarity of purpose coupled with your humility and passion
helped the Bombay Chamber continue to build on its momentum as we navigated the
year successfully.&quot;

In
his farewell presidential address, Rajiv Anand reflected on a year defined by
Innovation, Inclusion and Impact, built around five strategic
pillars—sustainable economic growth, technology and innovation, human capital,
public-private partnerships, and modernising the Chamber.

Over
the past year, the Chamber organised more than 100 conferences, conclaves,
seminars, workshops and training programmes, while strengthening its voice in
policy advocacy, fostering industry-government collaboration, and expanding
international partnerships.

Reflecting
on his tenure, Anand said, &quot;The Bombay Chamber is far more than India&#039;s
oldest chamber of commerce. It is a respected institution that has, for nearly
two centuries, championed enterprise, shaped economic thought, and contributed
meaningfully to the nation&#039;s development.&quot;

Expressing
confidence in the Chamber&#039;s future, he added, &quot;Leadership is temporary,
but the impact of collective purpose endures,&quot; as he formally passed the
baton to Vats.

The
AGM&#039;s Chief Guest, Shri Sivasubramanian Ramann, Chairperson, Pension Fund
Regulatory and Development Authority (PFRDA), delivered the keynote address on
the role of pension funds in building a developed India by 2047. He emphasised
that economic progress must be measured not only by growth but by long-term
resilience and social security.

&quot;A
nation does not become developed merely by growing large. It becomes developed
when growth is matched by resilience,&quot; Shri Ramann said.

Describing
pension systems as both an instrument of human dignity and a source of
long-term nation-building capital, he noted that pension funds can play a
transformative role in financing infrastructure, technology, innovation and
social development while providing financial security for India&#039;s ageing
population.

The
evening concluded with a Vote of Thanks by Sandeep Khosla, Director General of
the Bombay Chamber, who thanked the Chief Guest, Chamber leadership, past
presidents, board members, committee leaders, members and stakeholders for
their continued support. He also acknowledged the Chamber Secretariat for
successfully organising the landmark Annual General Meeting and reaffirmed the
Chamber&#039;s commitment to building on its rich legacy while embracing innovation
and future-ready growth. ]]></description>

~MediaMedic
Communications celebrates global recognition alongside its collaborators, Klick
Health, INVNT, TA2 and LightFarm for its role in the award-winning social
impact campaign championing women&#039;s rights~

Mumbai,
30th June 2026: ‘Infinite Saree’ the landmark social impact
campaign dedicated to ending the Marital Rape Exception in Indian criminal law,
has earned global recognition across two of the world&#039;s most prestigious
creative festivals. The campaign received one Silver Lion in the Health
&amp; Wellness category and was shortlisted in three categories at the
2026 Cannes Lions International Festival of Creativity. It also won 14
Clio Health Awards, including the inaugural Women&#039;s Health Grand Clio, at the
2026 Clio Health Awards. Its haul of 14 Clio honours, including the
inaugural Women&#039;s Health Grand Clio, seven Gold, four Silver and two Bronze
awards, along with the Cannes Lions Silver, recognises the campaign&#039;s creative
excellence and its role in driving meaningful conversations around women&#039;s
safety, equality, legal rights and social change. The campaign was developed by
global health marketing agency Klick Health for Red Dot Foundation, in
collaboration with MediaMedic Communications,
INVNT, TA2, and LightFarm.

‘Infinite
Saree’ transformed one of India’s most iconic symbols of womanhood into a
powerful call for justice. Conceived to raise awareness about the marital rape
exception in Indian criminal law, the campaign highlighted the lack of legal
protection available to millions of married women facing sexual violence. At
the centre of the initiative was a four-kilometre-long saree believed to be the
world’s longest, designed by leading Indian fashion designer Nivedita Saboo and
embroidered with thousands of signatures collected in support of the Marital
Rape Exception from the Indian Penal Code. Serving as a living petition at the
Royal Opera House in Mumbai, the installation mobilised public participation
and sparked widespread conversations around women’s rights, dignity, and
safety. 

Commenting
on the recognition, Supreet K. Singh, Co-founder &amp; CEO, Red Dot
Foundation said, &quot;‘Infinite Saree’ was created to amplify the
voices of women seeking legal protection and justice. This recognition reflects
the strength of collective action and the ability of creative storytelling to
bring critical social issues into mainstream discourse. We are honoured to see
this message resonate on a global stage.&quot;

Rich
Levy, Chief Creative Officer, Klick Health,
added, &quot;Every campaign we&#039;re celebrating exists because someone,
somewhere needed to be seen. The fact that this work is being recognised,
especially with the inaugural Grand for Women&#039;s Health created specifically to
recognise work fighting for women&#039;s safety on a global stage, tells me the
industry understands that the most powerful creative comes from the most urgent
truths.&quot;

Dinesh
Chindarkar, Co-Founder &amp; Director of MediaMedic Communications, said,
&quot;We are proud to be partners for the ‘Infinite Saree’ campaign that
brought together purpose, culture and advocacy to create meaningful impact. The
recognition at the Clio Health Awards and Cannes Lions International Festival
of Creativity 2026 reinforces the power of strategic communications, PR  and creative collaboration in bringing global
visibility to important social issues.&quot;

The
global recognition of ‘Infinite Saree’ underscores the growing role of
purpose-driven creativity in advancing social change. As conversations around
women’s safety, equality, and legal rights continue to evolve, the campaign
stands as a testament to the power of collective voices and creative advocacy
in driving awareness and action. ]]></description>

<title>Understanding the Benefits of Metabolic Surgery for Patients with Diabetes, High Blood Pressure and Thyroid Disorders</title>

<description><![CDATA[  

India, June 30, 2026: In
modern India, the number of cases of obesity and lifestyle-related disorders is
growing day by day. Most of the healthcare professionals focus on and try to
warn the patient about metabolic surgery in the treatment of conditions such as
type 2 diabetes, high blood pressure, and obesity-related thyroid
complications. 

One of the most advanced and highly effective
methods to deal with this condition is metabolic weight loss surgery. This
surgical method involves a process in which the digestive system of the patient
undergoes several treatment processes, which help to lose weight in a healthier
and faster process. Some of the Best Metabolic and Bariatric weight loss surgeons in Jalandhar say
that these methods also help the body to regulate hormonal and metabolic
functioning. 

Metabolic
Surgery: More Than Weight Loss

Metabolic weight loss surgery includes a wide
range of processes and methods that are designed to help the patient achieve
sustainable weight loss and a healthy lifestyle by altering the digestive
system. Medical research shows these procedures trigger helpful hormonal and
metabolic changes, which positively affect obesity-related diseases. Experts
say obesity frequently lies at the root of many chronic illnesses, so managing
weight is crucial for controlling these issues long-term.

How It
Helps Patients with Type 2 Diabetes

The type 2 diabetes condition is linked to
obesity and the insulin disorder in the body. Metabolic surgery helps people
regulate blood sugar by boosting insulin sensitivity and altering gut hormones.


“Many patients experience significant
improvement in their blood sugar levels after metabolic surgery, and in
selected cases, diabetes remission may also be possible when combined with
proper lifestyle modifications and medical supervision,” said Dr Amit Sood,
a bariatric and metabolic surgery expert.

Healthcare professionals believe that
surgeries should not be considered as an alternate option for healthy habits,
but a part of the treatment process.

Benefits
for High Blood Pressure and Thyroid-Related Issues

Too much body weight puts a lot of strain on
the heart and cardiovascular system, which often leads to hypertension. Many
studies show that the weight loss after metabolic bariatric surgery helps
regulate blood pressure and reduces the risk of heart-related complications. 

Obesity also causes thyroid-related
conditions, and through metabolic weight loss and bariatric surgery, this can
also be controlled indirectly. This surgical method does not cure thyroid
disorders, but the improved metabolic function and weight management can help
alleviate symptoms associated with obesity and support overall endocrine
health.

Importance
of Choosing the Right Treatment Path

Doctors advise a full check-up before
metabolic surgery. They look at BMI, current health issues, past treatments, and
general health. Qualified experts need to examine all these factors first. As
obesity awareness grows, more patients are looking for top-notch treatment and
consulting the experienced professional and some of the best bariatric surgeons
in Jalandhar.

With increasing scientific evidence supporting
its effectiveness, metabolic surgery is emerging as a valuable option for
patients struggling with obesity and related metabolic disorders, offering the
potential for improved health outcomes and a better quality of life.

<title>CEP IIT Delhi Launches Applied AI, Machine Learning and Decision Science Programme to Help Professionals Move Beyond Models to Business Impact</title>
<link>https://en.newsbolt.in/cep-iit-delhi-launches-applied-ai-machine-learning-and-decision-science-programme-to-help-professionals-move-beyond-models-to-business-impact</link>

<description><![CDATA[ Artificial intelligence has become one of
the most sought-after skills in the modern workforce. Organisations across
industries are investing heavily in AI, machine learning, automation, and
data-driven transformation initiatives. Yet, as AI adoption matures, a new
challenge is emerging. While many professionals can build models and generate
insights, far fewer know how to translate those outputs into structured
decisions that drive measurable business outcomes.

This gap is becoming increasingly
important as organisations move from AI experimentation to AI implementation.
Predictive models can forecast demand, identify risks, and recommend actions. Generative AI can summarise information, automate
workflows, and accelerate analysis. But business value is ultimately created
when organisations make better decisions. The ability to evaluate alternatives,
optimise outcomes, manage uncertainty, and act on AI-generated insights is
rapidly becoming a critical professional capability.

Recognising this shift, the Indian
Institute of Technology Delhi (CEP) has launched the Applied AI, ML and Decision
Science Programme, an
8-month live online programme designed to help professionals build capabilities
that extend beyond AI modelling. The programme combines Applied AI and Machine
Learning with Decision Science and Optimisation, creating an integrated
learning experience that prepares participants to move from building models to
driving real-world business impact.

At the heart of the programme is a simple
but increasingly relevant idea: AI generates insights. Decision Science
enables action. While many AI programmes focus on algorithms, coding, and
model development, CEP IIT Delhi&#039;s programme introduces Decision Science as a
dedicated pillar. This enables learners not only to build AI-powered solutions,
but also to apply structured decision-making frameworks, forecasting
techniques, optimisation models, and analytical methods that help organisations
make better choices.

The programme is among the few offerings
in India that explicitly combine Applied AI, Machine Learning, and Decision
Science within a single learning journey. Participants develop expertise
across data preparation, machine learning, cognitive AI, Generative AI, and
agentic systems, while also learning statistical decision-making, predictive
modelling, simulation techniques, optimisation frameworks, and business
decision methodologies. The result is an end-to-end capability stack that spans
building systems, interpreting outputs, and creating impact.

The curriculum has been designed with
practical application at its core. Through case studies, quizzes, hands-on
exercises, industry-relevant projects, and a comprehensive capstone,
participants learn how AI and decision-making techniques can be applied to real
business challenges. Exposure to tools such as Python, Tableau, Solver, and
LINGO ensures that learning remains grounded in real-world implementation rather
than theory alone.

Delivered through live online sessions
led by IIT Delhi faculty, the programme combines academic rigour with practical
relevance. Participants benefit from direct interaction with faculty while
developing skills that can be applied immediately within their organisations.
An optional campus immersion at IIT Delhi* in the final month
(*Travel and accommodation cost for the campus immersion will be borne by the
participants) provides an opportunity to experience the institute environment
and engage with peers, with no additional programme fee. 

The programme is designed for early- and
mid-career professionals across data, analytics, technology, engineering,
product, consulting, operations, and business functions. As organisations
increasingly seek professionals who can connect AI capabilities with business outcomes,
demand is rising for individuals who can not only build intelligent systems but
also understand how to use them to guide decisions.

This growing relevance is already
reflected in the diversity of professionals exploring the programme. Past
participants and applicants include software engineers, analytics
professionals, consultants, product managers, business analysts, and technology
leaders looking to strengthen their ability to apply AI in decision-making
contexts. Many are seeking to move beyond technical execution and develop the
strategic capabilities needed to influence business outcomes.

For professionals, the value of this
integrated approach lies in its practical relevance. Graduates of the programme
are equipped to build AI and machine learning solutions, evaluate and interpret
outputs, apply optimisation and forecasting frameworks, and translate insights
into action. These capabilities are becoming increasingly important as
organisations look for talent that can bridge the gap between technology and
business performance.

As AI continues to reshape industries,
technical expertise alone is unlikely to be enough. The next generation of
professionals will be distinguished not just by their ability to build models,
but by their ability to make better decisions because of them. With the launch
of the Applied AI, ML and Decision Science Programme, IIT Delhi is
responding to this need by preparing professionals for a future where
intelligence and decision-making must work hand in hand.

Programme Details

Programme: Applied AI, ML and Decision Science
Programme
Institution: Indian Institute of Technology Delhi (CEP)
Duration: 8 Months
Format: Live Online
Fee: INR 1,60,000 + GST
Campus Experience: Optional 1 day IIT Delhi Campus Immersion in the
final month*

<description><![CDATA[  ~
Hon’ble Governor Thiru. Rajendra Vishwanath Arlekar Inaugurated the 60 bed
Facility at Valasaravakkam

Chennai, June 30, 2026 :
Athulya Senior Care, India’s largest assisted living provider, today
inaugurated Athulya Geriatric Care Hospital, its first exclusive hospital
dedicated to geriatric care, at Valasaravakkam, Chennai. The facility marks a
significant milestone in the senior care landscape, completing Athulya’s 360°
elder care continuum spanning specialised Geriatric Hospital Care, Assisted
Living, and Home Care under one integrated ecosystem.The facility was inaugurated
by Thiru. Rajendra Vishwanath Arlekar, Hon’ble Governor of Tamil Nadu,
in the presence of Dr. Karthik Narayan, Founder and Managing Director,
Athulya Senior Care, Mr. Srinivasan. G, Founder and CEO, Athulya Senior Care,
and Miss. Krishna Kavya, Founder and Director, Athulya Senior Care,
healthcare professionals, senior care experts, industry leaders, and
distinguished guests.

The launch comes at a critical inflection
point as India’s elderly population projected to reach 193.4 million by 2031
(NSO). Yet country’s geriatric healthcare infrastructure lags far behind
against a projected need for 4,00,000 senior care beds, where only around
20,000 are currently available. The organised assisted living sector covers
fewer than 4,500 units nationally. Tamil Nadu alone has around 10 million
people above the age of 55, a figure that makes the gap in specialised
geriatric healthcare infrastructure impossible to ignore.

Athulya Geriatric Care Hospital offers
comprehensive medical services supported by over 20 doctors across 10+
disciplines, with specialised Centres of Excellence spanning Geriatric
Intensive Care, Orthopedics &amp; Rehabilitation, General &amp; Laparoscopic
Surgery, Neurology, Urology, and Psychiatry. The hospital brings together
multidisciplinary expertise across medical specialities including cardiology,
oncology, nephrology, and rehabilitation medicine, enabling coordinated care
for the complex and evolving healthcare needs of older adults. 

The integrated model focuses on managing
complex multi-morbidity cases, chronic disease management, recovery,
rehabilitation, and long-term care requirements, enabling continuity of care
rather than episodic treatment.

Commenting on the new facility launch, Mr.
Srinivasan G., Founder &amp; CEO, Athulya Senior Care, said, “Over the
years, Athulya has built a strong eldercare ecosystem through Assisted Living,
Home Care, and transitional care services. The launch of our dedicated
Geriatric Care Hospital is a natural and necessary expansion of that vision,
completing the continuum of care for seniors. Elderly individuals often require
healthcare systems that go beyond episodic treatment and instead offer
continuity, rehabilitation, safety, and specialised geriatric expertise. This
hospital has been designed to address those needs comprehensively while
preserving the dignity and quality of life of every senior we serve.”

Adding
perspective on the clinical significance of the facility, Dr. Karthik
Narayan, Founder and Manging Director, Athulya Senior Care said, “The
healthcare needs of seniors are often complex and require a care model that
goes beyond traditional treatment approaches. Effective geriatric care involves
addressing multiple dimensions of ageing, including medical conditions,
mobility, recovery, cognitive health, and long-term care requirements. With
Athulya Geriatric Care Hospital, our focus has been to create a specialised
clinical framework supported by dedicated infrastructure, geriatric expertise,
and multidisciplinary care teams. The facility is designed to establish a
structured approach to geriatric healthcare, supporting personalised treatment
pathways, better clinical decision-making, and improved quality of care for
seniors.”

As Tamil Nadu and the nation prepare for an
unprecedented ageing reality, Athulya’s Geriatric Care Hospital stands as both
a clinical milestone and a call to action for the broader healthcare sector to
put the needs of seniors at the centre of care design.

About Athulya Geriatric Care Hospital

It is a multi-specialty healthcare institution
in Chennai, purpose-built exclusively for older adults. The hospital combines
advanced medical expertise with age-friendly infrastructure and compassionate
care. Organized through six Centres of Excellence - Geriatric Intensive Care,
Orthopedics &amp; Rehabilitation, General &amp; Laparoscopic Surgery,
Neurology, Urology, and Psychiatry - the hospital delivers specialized care
addressing the unique needs of elderly patients. Features include
round-the-clock geriatric emergency services, diagnostic and surgical
facilities, dedicated rehabilitation programs, and a healing garden. Designed
to international safety standards, the hospital completes Athulya&#039;s
comprehensive care continuum spanning assisted living, home healthcare, and

<description><![CDATA[  

From
utility scale solar farms to rooftop systems lighting up homes along with
catering to Solar component manufacturing plants, Lauritz Knudsen’s
seven-decade legacy in energy infrastructure is helping extend the benefits of
clean energy to communities across markets

Mumbai,
June 30th , 2026: Lauritz Knudsen Electrical and Automation,
a leading player in India’s electrical and automation sector, today
announced that its electrical and digital technologies have powered over 50 GW
of solar capacity across India and global markets.

This
milestone underscores Lauritz Knudsen’s clear focus on enabling solar energy
to move beyond capacity creation to meaningful, widespread access, reaching
factories, farms, homes, and underserved communities, while supporting the
scale required for national energy transition goals.

India’s
solar journey is no longer limited to large utility parks. It is increasingly
visible at the last mile, powering irrigation through PM-KUSUM, enabling
households under PM Surya Ghar, and extending reliable electricity access to
communities beyond traditional grid reach.

The
pace of this transformation has been rapid. India has steadily added solar
capacity, with solar now accounting for nearly 55% of installed renewable
energy capacity, surpassing 154 GW. This expansion spans two parallel tracks:
large-scale utility projects that adds capacity to the grid reducing dependency
on fossil fuels, and distributed deployments that deliver direct economic and
social impact.

Lauritz
Knudsen operates across three segments, which are Utility scale power plants,
Commercial and Industries (C&amp;I), and residentials, delivering advanced AC
solutions, DC switchgear, Smart metering and cloud based remote monitoring
solutions that ensure solar installations are safe, reliable, and built for
long-term performance. This capability is rooted in over seven decades of
experience in India’s electrical infrastructure ecosystem. The company has
supported more than 2,350 solar projects, partnered with over 350 EPCs and 300+
developers, and trained over 300 system integrators,  building local capacity critical to
sustaining the sector’s growth.

Naresh
Kumar, Chief Operating Officer, Lauritz Knudsen Electrical and Automation,
said: “When a farmer moves away from diesel-based irrigation
or a household gains dependable access to electricity, that is when the energy
transition becomes real. The significance of the 50 GW milestone lies not just
in scale, but in how widely its benefits are felt. Our focus has been to ensure
that solar infrastructure is dependable, accessible, and built to serve every
segment of society.”

As
India’s solar ecosystem has expanded, so has its technical complexity. Higher
capacities, evolving grid dynamics, and the growth of distributed generation
models are driving the need for more advanced, application-specific electrical
solutions.

Lauritz
Knudsen supports the entire solar value chain, from power
generation  to evacuation and integration
into the grid. The company’s portfolio reflects this shift, with strong growth
across renewable-linked products, including medium-voltage solutions, AC and
DC Switchgear solutions, software and services.

The
renewable surge is also accelerating the scale of domestic manufacturing.
India’s solar manufacturing capacity expanded significantly from FY2025 to
FY2026, strengthening the country’s self-reliance. Lauritz Knudsen has
supported this evolution by equipping manufacturing facilities with robust,
future-ready electrical systems tailored to emerging requirements

As
India progresses towards its target of 500 GW of non-fossil fuel capacity by
2030, the focus is shifting from quantity to quality of transition, ensuring
that energy access is not only expanded but also equitably distributed.

Lauritz
Knudsen’s role in this journey remains anchored in its core purpose: to build
the electrical backbone that makes solar energy dependable, scalable, and
accessible across every layer of India’s growth story.

<title>Subrata Mitra and Pankaj Mishra Launch Down But Not Out, Chronicling the Near&#45;Death Moments Behind India&amp;apos;s Entrepreneurial Rise</title>
<link>https://en.newsbolt.in/subrata-mitra-and-pankaj-mishra-launch-down-but-not-out-chronicling-the-near-death-moments-behind-indias-entrepreneurial-rise</link>
<guid>https://en.newsbolt.in/subrata-mitra-and-pankaj-mishra-launch-down-but-not-out-chronicling-the-near-death-moments-behind-indias-entrepreneurial-rise</guid>
<description><![CDATA[ Bengaluru, June 29, 2026: Over the last two
decades, entrepreneurship has emerged as one of the most powerful forces
shaping modern economies. In India, founders have built category defining
companies that have transformed how millions live, work, transact, travel, and
consume. Yet, behind every celebrated success story lies a less visible journey
marked by uncertainty, failure, resilience, and the determination to begin
again.

Capturing these rarely documented stories, Subrata
Mitra, Founding Partner at Accel, and Pankaj Mishra, entrepreneur, journalist
and Founder of FactorDaily, have co-authored Down
But Not Out: Gritty Comebacks of India&#039;s Diehard Founders, a
compelling exploration of the human side of entrepreneurship.

Drawing from extensive conversations with founders across sectors,
the book chronicles the journeys of entrepreneurs behind companies
including BlueStone, Tejas Networks, Ninjacart, GreyOrange, Capillary
Technologies, HyperVerge, Zolve, Uniqode, and ZopNow. 

At a time when conversations around entrepreneurship are often
dominated by valuations, funding rounds, and exits, Down But Not Out shifts the
focus to the less visible realities of building companies. 

Here are just some of the key moments detailed in the book:


 How
     BlueStone went from cutting its team from around 150 staff to just six in
     2017 to scaling into one of India&#039;s leading jewellery platforms, later
     backed by Ratan Tata.
 How
     TaxiForSure went from an idea scribbled on a tissue at a Bangalore pub
     (~2011) to a ~$200 million sale to Ola in 2015.
 How
     MobStac went back to square one in 2015 after six years, then pivoted to
     Beaconstac - which became one of FedEx India&#039;s larger SME customers.
 How
     Tejas Networks survived Lehman&#039;s crash, Nortel&#039;s bankruptcy, a 2G freeze,
     a flood, and a fire that gutted its R&amp;D labs - revenue collapsing from
     ₹676 crore to ₹208 crore — before listing in 2017 as India&#039;s first pure
     deep-tech IPO and powering BSNL&#039;s 100,000-base-station 4G rollout.
 How
     HyperVerge turned down a $10–12 million acquisition offer with just six
     months of cash left, then went on to verify over a billion users for 75+
     banks and lenders.


The book also reflects on Subrata Mitra&#039;s own
entrepreneurial and investing journey, including lessons from failure,
conviction and what he describes as the pursuit of &quot;truth and long-term
greed&quot; - the belief that enduring value is built through patience, trust
and long-term thinking rather than short-term gains. 

Commenting on the book, Subrata Mitra, said: &quot;Over
the last two decades, I&#039;ve had the privilege of working closely with founders
through some of the highest highs and lowest lows of their journeys. What
struck me was that the defining moments were rarely the successes that made
headlines, but the setbacks, doubts, and failures they quietly endured. Down
But Not Out is an attempt to bring those untold stories to light. It is a
tribute to the resilience of founders who chose to keep going when walking away
would have been easier. In entrepreneurship, as in life, success is rarely a
straight line. What matters is the courage to take one more turn, stand up one
more time, and remain, in every sense of the phrase - Not Out.&quot;

Pankaj Mishra, co-author of the book, “I’ve
always thought of entrepreneurship as a trapeze act — you let go before you
know if anyone will catch you. I’ve lived a version of that myself with
FactorDaily, which is partly why these stories pulled at me. Working on this
book with Subrata was a gift. He’s spent over two decades with founders in
their hardest hours, and learning to read those moments alongside him taught me
more than I expected.”

Combining candid founder accounts with personal reflections
and visual storytelling, Down But Not Out explores the decisions, setbacks and
turning points that shaped both individual entrepreneurs and India&#039;s startup
ecosystem. The book offers insights not only for founders and investors but for
anyone seeking to build, persevere and adapt in the face of uncertainty. 

Published by Harper Business, Down But Not Out: Gritty
Comebacks of India&#039;s Diehard Founders is now available across leading online
and offline bookstores.

<title>THE QUIET ART OF HEALING: COMING HOME BY KARISHMA</title>
<link>https://en.newsbolt.in/the-quiet-art-of-healing-coming-home-by-karishma</link>
<guid>https://en.newsbolt.in/the-quiet-art-of-healing-coming-home-by-karishma</guid>
<description><![CDATA[  

We have all been told that healing is a project to be
finished, that we are broken machines waiting for a final repair. We treat it
like a destination, a finish line where we are finally ‘fixed’ and perfect. But
I have found that the truth is much simpler and kinder. Healing is not a
transformation into something new but it is homecoming. It is the
steady, quiet act of reclaiming the parts of ourselves we left behind in the
dark, and shedding the heavy, borrowed armor that never actually belonged to
us.

The Language of the Heart

We often get tripped in our healing journey because we lack
the vocabulary to name our own pain. We label everything as stress or sadness
and wonder why the feeling never fades.

I lived in a loop for a long time, constantly running on
fumes, telling everyone and myself that I was ‘busy’. I thought I just needed
to be more productive or manage my time better. But one day, I realized I
wasn&#039;t just ‘busy’. I was over functioning because I felt responsible
for everyone else’s comfort and emotional stability. The moment I stopped
calling it ‘busyness’ and named it over-responsibility, everything changed. I
stopped trying to do more, and I started learning how to let other people carry
their own weight. That wasn&#039;t a time management issue, it was a boundary issue,
and finally naming it gave me the power to shift it.  

So, when you feel a sharp emotion just, pause. If you feel
‘sad’, look closer. Are you betrayed? Are you disillusioned? When you can
accurately label an emotion, you stop being a prisoner to a feeling that you do
not understand. This feels like you busted an overwhelming cloud into a clear,
manageable path. 

Solve what you can 

Once you have named the feeling, you must deal with the
cause. The best solutions are rarely the most complicated ones. Life requires a
bit of cleverness, an innovative, simple and sometimes unconventional way to
protect your peace. When your energy is being spent on the wrong things, you
don&#039;t need a massive overhaul. You need a small, clever adjustment that may be
a kind of deliberate change that turns a drain into a boundary. A firm
boundary, a change in routine, or a simple ‘no’ can often be the most effective
medicine. When you identify the cause, you move from being a victim of your
emotions to being the person who can manage them.

Respect your own pace 

The most common mistake people make is comparing their
healing journey to someone else’s. We see someone moving on quickly and we
judge ourselves for lagging behind. But just as everyone has a different
physical metabolism, everyone has a different mental metabolism. Some process a
loss in a week, others may take a season. Your timing is not wrong to process
your emotions, it is simply yours. Trust that you are moving at the exact speed
required for your growth.

A Note on True Clarity

Before we try any rituals, we have to be honest,
sitting in silence is not a substitute for solving your problems. If you close
your eyes and meditate without acknowledging what is actually wrong, you are
merely taking a mental painkiller. It might dull the ache for a moment, but it
leaves the root cause untouched. Healing requires the courage to feel the
weight of your experience, and the wisdom to solve the problem causing it.
Silence should be a space to see the truth, not a place to hide from it.

Unpacking: A Simple Ritual 

At the end of each day, instead of carrying your emotional
baggage into your sleep, take two minutes to ‘unpack’.

●     
Empty the Bag: Ask yourself, what heavy things are you carrying from
today? Maybe it was a sharp comment, a worry about the future, or an old
frustration that flared up. 

●     
Label it: Don&#039;t
just call it ‘stress’, identify the specific item (emotion). Is it regret?
Worry? Exhaustion? Just naming them makes them feel smaller. 

●     
Set it down: Imagine yourself physically taking those items out of your
bag and setting them on the floor beside your bed. Tell yourself, ‘These things
happened today, but they do not belong in my tomorrow’. 

Taking
Back the Controls

Healing is not about becoming a new person, it is about
finally meeting the person who has been waiting patiently beneath your armor
all along. You are the sole pilot of your life. When you take the steering
wheel back from the past traumas and outside expectations, you are not just
recovering but you are coming back.

You were always there. You were just waiting to come home!

I know it doesn&#039;t always feel like a win. Some days, it
feels like stumbling in the dark, wondering if you are actually making
progress.

I have spent many nights asking myself if I was moving
forward or just stuck in the same place. But I have learned that this doubt
isn&#039;t a sign that you are failing, it is just the sound of your old, heavy
habits trying to hold on.

Remember, you were never broken, you were only hidden. You
are the architect of your own peace, and you get to decide what your
‘homecoming’ looks like. Every small change you make, every boundary you set,
every ‘no’ you say, and every moment of kindness you give yourself is a brick
in the foundation of the life you are building. It&#039;s a life where you no longer
just survive the storm, but slowly and steadily, learn to choose your own path.
(Also read ‘Beyond the easy child: Is your child confident or
just surviving?’

<title>Pocket HRMS releases India&amp;apos;s First smHRt Agentic HR Solution</title>
<link>https://en.newsbolt.in/pocket-hrms-releases-indias-first-smhrt-agentic-hr-solution</link>
<guid>https://en.newsbolt.in/pocket-hrms-releases-indias-first-smhrt-agentic-hr-solution</guid>
<description><![CDATA[ Mumbai, India - June 29th, 2026 : Pocket HRMS,
India&#039;s popular AI-powered cloud-HR software, announced the launch of India&#039;s
first ‘smHRt Agentic HR solution’, built to think, act, and collaborate across
the entire employee lifecycle.

With this release, Pocket HRMS’ HR chatbot smHRty® and HR assistant HRMS Copilot™ will be
powered by Agentic AI, which brings together a coordinated team of specialized
AI agents, where each agent will be responsible for a specific HR job. They
work together to finish tasks, find useful information, and solve problems,
helping HR avoid repetitive work and focus on other strategic initiatives.

Unlike a single assistant that only answers questions, the
smHRt Agentic HR solution coordinates multiple agents that each own a job, like
payroll, leave, attendance, and employee records. The Employee Management Agent
will take the lead and talk to the user in plain English, working out what
needs to happen, and hand the task to the right specialist agent. The user sees
one conversation while a team of agents does the work behind it.

For HR teams, this changes how daily work is done. Instead
of clicking through different screens, HR personnel can just give instructions
in plain English. With the smHRt agentic HR solution, HR teams can:

●     
Get instant answers and flagged data
discrepancies, so issues are caught before they reach payroll.

●     
See leave and attendance trends with
a simple message, and plan staffing and approvals.

●     
Receive automatic reminders for
statutory deadlines like PF returns, quarterly TDS, PT filings, and more.

●     
Turn raw payroll and attendance data
into charts and summaries on request, without building MIS reports manually.

Internal
tests show that our HR teams spend nearly 70% of their time doing repetitive computer
work. By having one main agent understand what users need and manage the other
agents, the smHRt Agentic HR solution turns long processes into one simple
command. This frees up HR leaders to focus on company culture and big-picture
goals instead of manual data entry.

Jitendra Somani, Co-Founder of Pocket HRMS, shared, “With
our smHRt Agentic HR Solution, we are bringing a digital workforce of AI agents
to Pocket HRMS. In our beta tests, HR teams reported 54% increase in their
productivity with the help of Agentic AI. So, we are implementing the shift to
Agentic AI for both chatbot smHRty® and HRMS Copilot™, enhancing their
versatility. This is our vision for agentic HR: a system that hides the complex
work and completes HR tasks with just a simple command.”

Key Features of smHRt Agentic HR Solution

●     
Team of AI Agents: Different agents handle payroll, leave, attendance, and employee management.
They focus on their own jobs but stay coordinated through the main agent.

●     
One Simple Chatbox: The main Employee Management AI Agent talks directly with
users and hands tasks to the right specialized agent. Users don&#039;t have to
switch between different software screens.

●     
Natural Language Processing: HR teams can ask the system to do complicated everyday HR
tasks using normal language, and the agents will complete the work behind the
scenes.

●     
Smart Data Insights: The AI agents can help HRs reveal hidden trends in payroll
and attendance data to help managers make better decisions.

●     
Automatic Problem Solving: The AI agents can also help spot mistakes in HR data, like
payroll errors or mismatched attendance, helping HR in fixing them before they
become major issues.

The smHRt
Agentic HR solution is the next big step for Pocket HRMS. It creates a smart
system where multiple specialized agents work together behind one easy-to-use
screen. This launch supports the goal of making Agentic AI easy to use for HR
teams all over India.

<description><![CDATA[  Founder
&amp; CEO Nikhil Gaur says the path to becoming one of India&#039;s Top 20 B-Schools
by 2030 looks stronger and on track.

Gurugram (Haryana) [India], 29th June: Hive School of Business - India&#039;s first dedicated Revenue
B-School, as seen on Shark Tank India has released its Annual Placement Report 2025–26, registering an average CTC of ₹16.47 LPA and a
highest package of ₹27.8 LPA. The average places the institution ahead
of nearly half of India&#039;s IIMs - a notable marker for a B-school.

The defining story of this year&#039;s cohort is the calibre of
recruiters. This season drew established, globally recognised names including Adobe,
Yatra and Payoneer alongside fast-scaling startups, hiring for
high-ownership roles across Founder&#039;s Office, GTM, Growth, Strategy and Program
Management. Their entry signals a shift: Hive School&#039;s job-ready talent is no
longer the preserve of early-stage startups alone, but is now being absorbed by
mature, brand-name employers.

In all, Hive School ran placement processes with over 50
recruiters this season spanning high-growth consumer, tech and D2C brands
such as Swiggy, Google and LinkedIn, alongside fast-scaling startups and
established enterprises. The breadth of the funnel reflects widening employer
interest in revenue-first, job-ready talent across functions. (View the full list of recruiters)


Hive School&#039;s flagship 9-month Postgraduate Program in
Revenue, AI, and Entrepreneurship is delivered fully offline, with students
working through weekly business challenges, live simulations, sprints, and
founder-led workshops. The curriculum is designed in collaboration with startup
leaders and operators, covering go-to-market, growth and strategy, founder-led
revenue, and modern operating functions, with students mentored by active
operators from leading tech companies.

This year also marks Hive School&#039;s expansion beyond its
flagship postgraduate program. The institution has launched an AI Marketing Fellowship
built to create a new generation of marketers fluent in AI-driven growth
alongside new Undergraduate Programs that bring its industry-first,
outcome-focused model to students earlier in their journey. The expansion
signals Hive School&#039;s intent to build a broader, multi-program B-School as it
scales toward its 2030 goal. 

&quot;Our model is built to deliver outcomes that rival and
now beat established programs, and to put job-ready talent into high-ownership
roles from day one,&quot; said Nikhil Gaur, Founder, Hive School. “An
average of ₹16.47 LPA, ahead of nearly half of India&#039;s IIMs, tells us the
thesis is working. Our goal remains to be among India&#039;s Top 20 B-Schools by
2030.”

Average - ₹16.47 LPA, Median - ₹15 LPA, Highest - ₹27.8 LPA,
Top 25% Average - ₹21.93 LPA, Top 50% Average - ₹18.63 LPA, and Top 75% Average
- ₹17.65 LPA

With students learning on ground, first taken for industry
immersions to places like Big Boy Toyz, PeeSafe, Culture Circle and other D2C
brands. 

With admissions open for its
next cohort, Hive School of Business is doubling down on its mission to
redefine education in India giving freshers and early-career professionals a
credible, high-return alternative to the traditional MBA path.

About Hive School : Hive School
is India&#039;s first dedicated Revenue B-School. Its flagship 9-month Postgraduate
Program in Revenue, Technology, and Entrepreneurship is delivered fully offline
and led by top startup operators, and now spans an AI Marketing Fellowship and
Undergraduate Programs. Backed by a growing placement track record and a strong

<title>Puravankara Announces JDA for 6.4&#45;acre Land Parcel in Sarjapur, Bengaluru with Potential GDV of Rs 1,000 Crores</title>
<link>https://en.newsbolt.in/puravankara-announces-jda-for-64-acre-land-parcel-in-sarjapur-bengaluru-with-potential-gdv-of-rs-1000-crores</link>
<guid>https://en.newsbolt.in/puravankara-announces-jda-for-64-acre-land-parcel-in-sarjapur-bengaluru-with-potential-gdv-of-rs-1000-crores</guid>
<description><![CDATA[ Bengaluru : Puravankara Limited (NSE: PURVA |
BSE: 532891), one of India&#039;s most trusted and admired real estate developers,
has entered into a joint development agreement (JDA) for a 6.4-acre land parcel
in Sarjapur, Bengaluru, with an estimated Gross Development Value (GDV) of Rs
1,000 crore. The project has a saleable area of approximately 0.8 msft and will
be developed as a residential community catering to the growing demand in this
emerging corridor. This latest addition further strengthens Puravankara&#039;s development
pipeline in the city, bringing the company&#039;s total potential GDV from
acquisitions and JDAs in Q1FY27 to Rs 5,200 crore.

Commenting on the development, Ashish Puravankara,
Managing Director, Puravankara Limited, said, &quot;Bengaluru continues
to be one of our most important growth markets, and this joint development
reinforces our commitment to deepening our presence across high-potential urban
corridors. As we pursue our FY27 growth agenda, our focus remains on securing
quality land parcels in markets backed by infrastructure, employment density,
and sustained homebuyer demand, while creating long-term value for our
stakeholders.”

Strategically located in Kaggalipura Village, Sarjapura
Hobli, the site is well-positioned for growth, with excellent connectivity via
Sarjapur Road and the Outer Ring Road. It also enjoys good connectivity to the
Electronic City technology corridor and other key employment hubs. The corridor
has emerged as a preferred destination for IT professionals and homebuyers
seeking quality housing, supported by the limited availability of organised
residential projects from reputed developers.

Mallanna Sasalu, CEO, Puravankara Limited, added, &quot;The mix of outright acquisitions and joint
development agreements across key Bengaluru micro-markets reflects our
calibrated growth strategy, combining scale creation with capital efficiency.
The pace, scale, and quality of these additions indicate that the company is
moving in the right direction and steadily strengthening its development
pipeline in Bengaluru. Notably, in Q1FY27 alone, Puravankara announced four
land transactions in quick succession, underlining the company’s strong
business development momentum and the ability to consistently add
high-potential projects to its portfolio. Together, these deals span
approximately 41.93 acres, with a cumulative development potential of around
4.23 msft and a total estimated GDV of Rs 5,200 crore.”

Sarjapur represents a micro-market where strong end-user
demand, improving connectivity, and limited branded supply create a compelling
opportunity for value creation. Through such partnerships, Puravankara is able
to optimise capital deployment, expand across multiple high-growth corridors,
and strengthen the overall quality and depth of its project pipeline.

<description><![CDATA[  

National, June 26th, 2026:
With schools reopening across the country, kitchens are once again buzzing with
an age-old morning ritual: packing lunchboxes before the school bell rings. But
today&#039;s lunchbox looks very different from a decade ago. Alongside traditional
favourites, parents are increasingly reaching for convenient foods that balance
taste, quality, and nutrition.

Tapping into this seasonal shift, Noice, a premium food
brand dedicated to reviving authentic recipes through small-batch
craftsmanship, has launched a specially curated Back-to-School Range
featuring spreads, juices, dips, yogurts, cookies, protein snacks, and pantry
staples designed for busy mornings, recess breaks, and after-school hunger
pangs. The range is available across Bengaluru, Mumbai, Hyderabad, Pune, and
Chennai.

Bringing together everyday essentials and kid-friendly
favourites, the collection includes Peanut Butter &amp; Jam, Mango, Orange,
Pomegranate and Litchi Juices, Coconut Water, Avocado Dip, Yogurt (Regular and
Protein variants), Cookies, Dry Fruits, Jaggery Peanut Chikki, and Protein Bars.
Crafted using thoughtfully sourced ingredients and made without added
preservatives, the range is designed to fit seamlessly into modern family
routines.

Whether it&#039;s a quick PB&amp;J sandwich before the school bus
arrives, a juice packed for recess, or a protein snack after football practice,
the collection aims to make snack planning a little easier for parents while
keeping mealtimes enjoyable for children.

Commenting on the launch, Royan Mody, Vice President - Noice,
said, &quot;Back-to-school season is one
of the biggest food moments for families. Every morning, parents are looking
for options that are quick, convenient, and something their children genuinely
enjoy eating. We built this range around those everyday occasions, from
lunchbox sandwiches and recess breaks to after-school snacking. The idea was to
create products that fit naturally into family routines while staying true to
our commitment to thoughtfully sourced ingredients, small-batch craftsmanship,
and great taste.

As Indian households increasingly seek convenient foods that
don&#039;t compromise on ingredient quality, the modern lunchbox is evolving beyond
traditional staples. With products spanning spreads, beverages, dairy, dips,
and protein-rich snacks, Noice&#039;s Back-to-School range reflects a growing demand
for everyday foods that are both practical and thoughtfully made. The range is
available on Instamart across major metros, making it easy for families to
stock up on school-season essentials in minutes.

<title>Vidyavriti Launches Nationwide Centre&#45;Based Mock Exams for SSC CGL &amp;amp; IBPS PO</title>
<link>https://en.newsbolt.in/vidyavriti-launches-nationwide-centre-based-mock-exams-for-ssc-cgl-ibps-po</link>

<description><![CDATA[  

Hyderabad, June
27, 2026 : In a landmark
moment for India&#039;s competitive exam preparation ecosystem, Vidyavriti a
next-generation EdTech platform today goes live with India&#039;s first-ever All
India CBT (Computer-Based Test) Mock Examination. Launching simultaneously for
two of the country&#039;s most competitive government recruitment exams i.e. SSC
CGL and IBPS PO. This initiative marks the first time any EdTech
company has brought the actual exam experience to aspirants across Pan India,
not on their laptops at home, but at the real physical examination centres
where these tests are officially administered.

Registrations
for both the SSC CGL and IBPS PO All India CBT Mock Exams are now open at vidyavriti.com/allindiacbt.

What Is Vidyavriti And Why It Is Different

Vidyavriti is an
integrated EdTech platform built on a singular, powerful vision: &quot;To build India&#039;s largest learning-to-earning
ecosystem powered by performance data.&quot;

While
dozens of online test platforms offer mock exams that students take on their
phones and home computers, Vidyavriti recognised a critical, unaddressed gap:
aspirants spend months preparing for competitive exams but walk into the actual
exam centre on the day of the test having never experienced the real CBT
environment - the unfamiliar hardware, the strict non-pausable section-wise
countdown, the pressure of sitting under invigilation among other candidates.
That adjustment cost, on the most important day of their lives, shows up as a
measurable drop in accuracy.

Vidyavriti
eliminates that gap entirely. Its flagship CBT Mock Exam Platform delivers mock
examinations at the very same centres where the actual government exams are
conducted replicating the exact interface, the same hardware, the same
protocols, and the same invigilated, no-pause environment. The result:
aspirants walk into their actual exam day having already been there before.

EXAM
SCHEDULE AT A GLANCE

IBPS
PO All India CBT Mock Exam: Between 6th - 10th August 2026

SSC
CGL All India CBT Mock Exam: Between 13th - 17th August 2026

Registration
Fee: IBPS PO - ₹599  |  SSC CGL - ₹499

Pan India Reach - The Real Exam Centre, Near
You

Vidyavriti
has forged partnerships with accredited physical examination centres across
India the same Tier I, II, and III city venues where actual government competitive
exams are conducted. Aspirants from across the country can select their
preferred exam centre from a curated list while booking their mock exam online.

Once
a booking is confirmed, aspirants will receive their Admit Card containing
their assigned exam date, shift, and centre details via email, one week before
the exam. This mirror of the actual government exam process is intentional:
Vidyavriti wants every step of the experience to feel like the real thing.

Beyond the Score: AI-Powered Performance Intelligence

The
mock exam is just the beginning. What truly separates Vidyavriti is what
happens after the test. Every aspirant receives a comprehensive AI-powered
performance analysis that goes far deeper than a mere scorecard. The platform&#039;s
post-exam intelligence engine breaks down performance across multiple critical
parameters:

·      
Identification of strong areas and weak
areas so aspirants know exactly where to invest more time and where they
already have an edge.

·      
Time-per-question analysis revealing
which question types consume disproportionate time and are silently costing
rank.

·      
Accuracy under pressure assessing how
performance shifts as the exam progresses and time pressure builds.

·      
Eliminate-to-win insights highlighting
what to avoid and stop doing to immediately improve chances of clearing the
cutoff.

·      
Strategy validation data-backed guidance
on which attempt strategy will work and which won&#039;t, personalised to the
individual aspirant&#039;s pattern.

·      
Percentile benchmarking showing where
the aspirant stands against peers across the country, not just within their
coaching institute.

·      
Focus-to-success roadmap a personalised,
prioritised list of what to work on next to maximise the probability of
clearing the actual exam.

This level of granular, actionable intelligence
is what transforms a mock exam from a mere practice session into a
career-defining diagnostic.

Just the Beginning: A Roadmap for India&#039;s
Competitive Exam Universe

While
SSC CGL and IBPS PO are Vidyavriti&#039;s inaugural offerings, the platform has
ambitious plans to rapidly expand the All India CBT Mock Exam series to cover
the full spectrum of India&#039;s competitive examination landscape. Upcoming exams
slated for inclusion include:

 CAT • XAT • GATE • IIT
JEE • NEET • UPSC • Railways (RRB) • CUET • NDA • CDS

These
All India CBT Mock Exams will be conducted annually, creating a structured,
recurring preparation calendar that aspirants can rely on year after year
regardless of which exam they are targeting.

Win Big: Vidyavriti Announces Prize Money for
All India Top Rankers

In a
move that underscores its commitment to recognising merit and excellence,
Vidyavriti has announced cash prizes for
the Top 5 All India rank holders in each exam separately for SSC CGL and
IBPS PO. This is not just a mock exam; it is a national-level competitive event
where performance is rewarded.

preparation deserves serious recognition. For lakhs of aspirants who give
everything to crack these exams, this is more than a mock test, it is the first
national stage where they can prove themselves and be rewarded for it.

In Conversation with the Founder

When
we spoke with Mr. DK Jha, Founder and CEO of Vidyavriti and a veteran
academician with multiple decades of experience coaching students for India&#039;s
most demanding competitive examinations, his conviction was unmistakable.

&quot;Vidyavriti is not just a mock test platform.
It is going to fundamentally change the way aspirants approach examinations.
For too long, students have been preparing in isolation, with no real sense of
what the exam environment feels like, no honest measure of where they stand
nationally, and no data to guide their final weeks of preparation. We are
changing all of that.&quot;

 

- Mr. DK Jha, Founder &amp; CEO, Vidyavriti

 

Mr. Jha, who has
spent over two decades designing academic systems and coaching students across
JEE, NEET, and government
recruitment exams expressed a deep personal commitment behind the venture:
&quot;Every aspirant who deserves to succeed should succeed. That is what
Vidyavriti is built for.&quot;

Bullish about
the platform&#039;s trajectory, Mr. Jha is confident that Vidyavriti&#039;s data-powered,
centre-based simulation model will soon be seen as the new standard for serious
competitive exam preparation across India.

<title>Sri Ramakrishna Hospital Certified as first Comprehensive Chest Pain Center in Tamil Nadu</title>
<link>https://en.newsbolt.in/sri-ramakrishna-hospital-certified-as-first-comprehensive-chest-pain-center-in-tamil-nadu</link>
<guid>https://en.newsbolt.in/sri-ramakrishna-hospital-certified-as-first-comprehensive-chest-pain-center-in-tamil-nadu</guid>
<description><![CDATA[  The American Heart Association
recognizes Sri Ramakrishna Hospital in Coimbatore, Tamil Nadu for its
commitment to evidence-based, quality care for patients with chest pain and
heart attacks.

COIMBATORE, 27 June 2026: Sri Ramakrishna Hospital has been recognized by the American
Heart Association, the world&#039;s leading nonprofit organization dedicated to
improving heart and brain health for all, as first Comprehensive Chest Pain
Center in Tamil Nadu. This prestigious certification signifies the hospital&#039;s
role as a critical component in the nation&#039;s healthcare system, helping bridge
gaps that delay heart attack patients from receiving timely access to
appropriate, life-saving treatment.

 

The certification was officially
announced and unveiled today during a press meet organized by Sri Ramakrishna Hospital. The event was led by Dr. Sundar
Ramakrishnan, Managing Trustee, SNR Sons Charitable Trust, and was attended by
Shri. C. V. Ramkumar, Chief Executive Officer, SNR Sons Charitable Trust; Shri.
D. Maheshkumar, Chief Administrative Officer, SNR Sons Charitable Trust; and
Dr. S. Rajagopal, Medical Director, Dr. S. Alagappan, Medical Superintendent, Sri Ramakrishna
Hospital, along with senior consultants and specialists from the Department of
Cardiology. The experts highlighted the significance of this international
certification and reaffirmed the hospital&#039;s commitment to delivering
world-class cardiac care.

 

Cardiovascular disease remains one
of the leading causes of death in Tamil Nadu, accounting for approximately 36%
of all deaths among people aged 30 to 69 years. Furthermore, the most recent
available data indicates a 12.5% year-on-year increase in heart attack-related
deaths. The growing burden of cardiovascular disease and its associated
disability underscores the importance of continually improving the treatment of
ST-elevation myocardial infarction (Heart Attack) - the most severe type of
heart attack.

 

The American Heart Association&#039;s
Comprehensive Chest Pain Center Certification recognizes hospitals that meet or
exceed rigorous quality standards in the treatment of patients experiencing
Heart Attack. This certification is awarded to healthcare institutions that
demonstrate excellence in promptly diagnosing heart attacks and delivering
advanced treatment.

 

A Comprehensive Chest Pain Center is
equipped with the expertise, infrastructure, and advanced technology required
to provide rapid intervention for Heart Attack patients, including Percutaneous
Coronary Intervention (PCI) - a life-saving mechanical procedure used to
restore blood flow to the heart. Certified centers must also demonstrate an
organizational commitment to evidence-based protocols, continuous quality
improvement, and coordinated care for patients presenting with chest pain.

 

&quot;Worldwide, heart disease
remains the leading cause of death - when someone suffers a heart attack, time
is critical,&quot; said., Incoming Co-Chair persons of the American Heart
Association&#039;s International Committee. &quot;Hospitals and health care
providers need to be prepared to coordinate care quickly and efficiently. We
developed the Comprehensive Chest Pain Center Certification to help hospitals
create an integrated and collaborative approach to cardiovascular care, improve
outcomes for patients with cardiovascular disease, and provide certified care
to patients with Heart Attack and Non- Heart Attack.”

 

The American Heart Association&#039;s
goal through this certification initiative is to significantly reduce cardiac
deaths by increasing public awareness of heart attack symptoms, encouraging
timely medical intervention, reducing delays in receiving life-saving
treatment, and improving the accuracy and effectiveness of care.

 

Dr. Sundar Ramakrishnan, Managing
Trustee, SNR Sons Charitable Trust, said, &quot;This certification is a significant milestone
in the continued growth of Sri Ramakrishna Hospital and a proud achievement for

<title>Former Entertainment Journalist Neeru Sharma&amp;apos;s Debut Film ‘Bandra Boy’ Heads to Film Festivals</title>

<description><![CDATA[  

Entertainment
journalist-turned-filmmaker Neeru Sharma has stepped into filmmaking with her
debut film Bandra Boy, which has been submitted to several national and
international film festivals in the competition category.

After
spending more than two decades in journalism and closely covering the Indian
film and television industry, Sharma has now shifted her focus to screenwriting
and direction. She completed the Direction Program at Subhash Ghai&#039;s Whistling
Woods International and is also an alumna of the institute.

Apart
from direction, Sharma has been associated with screenwriting since 2015. A
diploma holder in Screenwriting, she trained under veteran actor Boman Irani
and acclaimed screenwriters Anjum Rajabali and Mayur Puri. The training helped
her develop a deeper understanding of screenplay structure, character
development and cinematic storytelling.

Her
debut directorial venture, *Bandra Boy*, is a thriller that explores the impact
of media narratives, public perception and social prejudices. The story
examines how public opinion is often formed before facts are fully known—a
theme that has gained relevance in the age of social media and instant
judgments.

The
film stars Ahvaan Kumar in the lead role, while noted Gujarati and Marathi
actor Dharmendra Gohil plays a pivotal character. The cast also includes
Whistling Woods alumnus Lochan Barsagde, theatre actor Yash Pednekar, and
television actors Pawan Tiwari and Sham Thomre.

Industry
observers note that transitions from journalism to filmmaking remain relatively
rare. Having spent years reporting on films, celebrities and the entertainment
business, Sharma now finds herself on the other side of the camera, developing
stories of her own.

According
to people associated with the project, Bandra Boy has already begun its
festival journey and is expected to be screened before international audiences
in the coming months. The film&#039;s subject, centred on perception versus reality,
reflects issues that continue to spark debate in contemporary society.

With
Bandra Boy, Sharma joins a growing list of media professionals who have moved
from reporting stories to creating them, bringing with them years of
observation and industry insight.

<description><![CDATA[  

Gurugram, Haryana, June 26, 2026 : Commemorating Late Maj Maroof Raza (Retd.), one of India&#039;s
most respected experts on defence and strategic affairs, IIRIS Consulting
announced the launch of the Maroof Raza Centre for Security Studies (MRCSS),
a dedicated platform developed for advancing informed dialogue, research, and
engagement on national security, geopolitics, and emerging strategic issues.
Maj Maroof Raza (1959-2026) spent decades shaping informed conversations on
security, preparedness, and national interest, firstly as an Indian Army
officer, and then as an insightful commentator, teacher, writer, and strategic
advisor to IIRIS.

Mrs Anis Raza, wife of Maj Raza remembers him as “The quintessential soldier - scholar — who embodied the rare
union of intellect and valour. A patriot whose life was defined by honour,
character, and unwavering devotion to his beloved India. His legacy endures
through his work for the nation, and through the principles of integrity,
character, and duty that he upheld above all else. A true officer and gentleman,
who inspired respect by the values he lived by - that was Maroof Raza.”

Mr Garry Singh, President, IIRIS Consulting, while
commenting on the launch of MRCSS, said,
“Maroof Raza Sahab believed that informed strategic thinking was essential not
only for governments and security institutions, but for society as a whole.
Through this Centre, we hope to create a lasting platform that encourages
research, dialogue, and leadership development on issues that will shape
India&#039;s security future.”

The centre aims to keep the principles he promoted alive
by prompting intellectual rigour, clear strategy, well-informed dialogues, and
the never-ending commitment towards India&#039;s security environment. The centre
intends to gather policymakers, army leaders, academics, business
professionals, students, and researchers together to address issues impacting
India&#039;s strategic future. As part of its activities, the Centre will promote
research, thought leadership, academic engagement, scholarships, institutional
collaborations, and youth-focused initiatives designed to encourage a deeper
understanding of security and geopolitical affairs. The centre will also invest
in the next generation of strategic thinkers through the IIRIS Scholarships
programme, with a flagship commitment to sponsor one PhD scholar annually,
dedicated to research that carries forward the rigour and purpose that defined
Maroof Raza&#039;s life&#039;s work.

A key pillar of the Centre will be the Maroof Raza
Memorial Annual Dialogue. This flagship event will bring together key
figures from various fields to discuss national security, geopolitical
developments, strategic risks, and public policy. The dialogue will serve as a
living tribute to Maroof Raza&#039;s lifelong dedication to encouraging meaningful
discourse.

The establishment of this Centre marks the beginning of
a long-term effort to empower strategic awareness, encourage informed
discussions, and add real value to India&#039;s evolving security environment. ]]></description>

<title>Is It Time to Recognise Corporate Communication as the Fifth Estate?</title>
<link>https://en.newsbolt.in/is-it-time-to-recognise-corporate-communication-as-the-fifth-estate</link>
<guid>https://en.newsbolt.in/is-it-time-to-recognise-corporate-communication-as-the-fifth-estate</guid>
<description><![CDATA[  

NEW
DELHI : As businesses face unprecedented scrutiny
from stakeholders, investors, regulators, communities and digital audiences,
Corporate Communication has evolved beyond its traditional role and deserves
recognition as The Fifth Estate, according to Corporate Communication
&amp; Reputation Advisor Pavan Kaushik, whose new book The Fifth
Estatemakes the case for elevating the profession to institutional status.

Drawing
on more than 35 years of experience across mining, metals, energy,
infrastructure, manufacturing and sustainability sectors, the book argues that
while organisations have transformed their operations, technology and
governance, many promoters, founders and CXOs continue to underestimate the
strategic importance of Corporate Communication.

Positioned
as a boardroom guide for chairpersons, promoters, founders, CEOs, CXOs and
communication leaders, The Fifth Estate examines why communication is
often excluded from strategic decision-making and how this oversight can expose
organisations to reputation, stakeholder and business risks.

“The
Fifth Estate status of Corporate Communication has not been granted; it has
been earned. More than 125 years of evolution, institutional relevance,
stakeholder dependence and professional contribution have made Corporate Communication
deserve recognition as an institution shaping trust, reputation and stakeholder
confidence,” said Pavan Kaushik.

The
book argues that organisations today are increasingly judged not only by what
they produce or achieve, but by what employees, investors, customers,
regulators, communities and other stakeholders understand, believe and trust
about them.

“Organisations
are increasingly judged by what stakeholders understand, believe and trust
about them. Operational excellence alone is no longer sufficient in an
environment shaped by constant visibility, digital scrutiny and rising
stakeholder expectations,” Pavan Kaushik said.

According
to the book, Corporate Communication today extends well beyond media relations
and publicity to encompass leadership communication, stakeholder engagement,
crisis preparedness, governance communication, reputation management and
institutional credibility.

“Corporate
Communication is no longer a support function operating at the margins of
organisations. It is increasingly influencing leadership credibility,
governance perception, stakeholder acceptance and long-term organisational
continuity,” Pavan Kaushik added.

The
book further argues that the growing relevance of Corporate Communication is no
longer confined to large corporations but is equally important for startups,
unicorns, MSMEs, SMEs and rapidly growing enterprises navigating increasingly
transparent and digitally connected business environments.

“Performance
creates results. Communication creates understanding. Understanding creates
trust. Trust ultimately determines whether organisations earn acceptance,
credibility and long-term sustainability,” said Pavan Kaushik.

Through
The Fifth Estate, Pavan Kaushik calls for a broader conversation
among business leaders, boards and communication professionals on recognising
Corporate Communication not merely as a business function, but as an
institution that has earned its place as The Fifth Estate. ]]></description>

<title>Love Bomb Wants to Build India&amp;apos;s Next Wellness Category: Relationship Wellness</title>
<link>https://en.newsbolt.in/love-bomb-wants-to-build-indias-next-wellness-category-relationship-wellness</link>
<guid>https://en.newsbolt.in/love-bomb-wants-to-build-indias-next-wellness-category-relationship-wellness</guid>
<description><![CDATA[ The
startup is betting that modern couples need more than gifts — they need
experiences that help them reconnect.

Mumbai, India – June 2026 : India
has wellness brands for fitness, sleep, nutrition, mental health, and skincare.
But when it comes to relationship wellness, one category remains largely
untouched. Love Bomb, an Indian startup, believes relationship wellness could
become one of the next major consumer wellness categories in India.

The
company has launched a line of premium dark chocolates formulated with
ingredients such as Ashwagandha, Shilajit, and Saffron, designed not merely as
a confectionery product but as a wellness experience for couples.

Its
mission is ambitious: Create India&#039;s first mainstream relationship wellness
brand.

&quot;We
are not building a chocolate company,&quot; says Shweta Sawant, Co-Founder of
Love Bomb.

&quot;We
are building products that help couples reconnect. Chocolate is simply our
first medium.&quot;

The
founders observed a growing contradiction in modern relationships. Couples
today are more digitally connected than ever, yet many report feeling
emotionally disconnected because of demanding careers, stress, endless screen
time, and increasingly busy lifestyles.

While
consumers can buy products for better sleep, improved fitness, healthier skin,
or enhanced productivity, there are surprisingly few mainstream products
focused on helping couples nurture their relationships.

Love
Bomb sees this gap as the beginning of an entirely new consumer category.

The
startup&#039;s flagship product combines premium dark chocolate with traditional
Ayurvedic ingredients that have long been associated with vitality, mood
enhancement, and overall well-being.

More
importantly, the brand positions its products as shared rituals rather than
consumables.

The
company has already sold over 60,000 units, validating demand among urban
Indian couples seeking unique experiences and meaningful gifting alternatives.

The
founders believe relationship wellness could follow the same trajectory as
fitness and mental wellness, categories that were once niche but have since
become mainstream consumer markets.

Industry
experts estimate India&#039;s chocolate market exceeds ₹19,000 crore, while the
broader relationship wellness sector continues to witness rapid growth as
cultural attitudes evolve.

Love
Bomb plans to expand beyond chocolates into games, gifting experiences, and
relationship-focused wellness products, creating an ecosystem centered around
connection and shared experiences.

&quot;We
believe relationship wellness is where mental wellness was ten years ago,&quot;
says Shweta.

&quot;It&#039;s
under-discussed, underserved, and incredibly important. The brands that help
people build stronger relationships will define the next decade of
wellness.&quot;

Love
Bomb products are available through multiple consumer channels, making them
accessible to couples across India. Customers can purchase directly from the
brand&#039;s official website, lovebomb.co.in, as well as leading e-commerce
marketplaces such as Amazon. The brand has also expanded into the fast-growing
quick-commerce ecosystem through Blinkit, enabling customers in select cities
to receive their orders within minutes. By combining direct-to-consumer sales,
marketplace reach, and instant delivery platforms, Love Bomb aims to make
wellness and gifting products more convenient and accessible than ever before.



Love
Bomb&#039;s long-term vision extends far beyond chocolate. The Brand aims to build
India&#039;s leading premium relationship and gifting brand, spanning chocolates,
curated gift boxes, couple games, wellness products, and experiential
offerings. The brand also plans to tap into the growing premium corporate
gifting market, where companies are increasingly seeking memorable and
differentiated gifting solutions. Looking ahead, Love Bomb intends to establish
flagship stores in premium high-street locations across major Indian cities,
creating immersive retail experiences that blend wellness, gifting, and modern
relationship culture under one brand ecosystem.

As
conversations around relationships, emotional health, and personal well-being
continue to become more open across India, Love Bomb is positioning itself at
the intersection of wellness, gifting, and modern relationships.

And
if the founders are right, they may not be creating a chocolate brand at all —
they are creating an entirely new category.

About Love Bomb

Love
Bomb is an Indian wellness company creating products and experiences designed
to help couples reconnect. Starting with premium dark chocolates infused with
traditional Ayurvedic ingredients, the company aims to build India&#039;s leading
relationship wellness brand.

Some

Presented by Panorama Music, celebrated sarod maestros Amaan Ali Bangash and
Ayaan Ali Bangash offer a fresh musical take on three timeless Sai Baba
devotional songs, &#039;Aarti Sai Baba&#039;, &#039;Shirdi Majhe Pandharpur&#039;, and &#039;Ananta Tula
Te&#039; through the sound of the sarod.﻿

Following
their collaboration with Gorillaz on The Mountain alongside Asha Bhosle and

Holiness the Dalai Lama&#039;, Amaan Ali Bangash and Ayaan Ali Bangash now turn
their attention to devotional music, bringing these cherished Sai Baba
compositions to listeners through soulful sarod renditions.﻿

For
many people, these songs are a regular part of their prayer routine. They bring
a sense of peace and connection to Sai Baba. With these renditions, Amaan Ali
Bangash and Ayaan Ali Bangash offer listeners a chance to experience these
familiar compositions through the sound of the sarod.﻿

&#039;Aarti
Sai Baba’ is one of the most popular prayers dedicated to Sai Baba. It is
played and sung every day in homes and temples. In this rendition, the sarod
presents the familiar melody in a soothing and beautiful way while keeping the
feeling of the prayer unchanged.﻿

For

Majhe Pandharpur&#039; reflects that connection, and this sarod rendition brings the
familiar melody to listeners in a beautiful new way.﻿

&#039;Ananta
Tula Te&#039; is a much-loved devotional song among Sai Baba devotees. This sarod
rendition brings a fresh sound to the familiar melody while staying true to the
emotions associated with it.﻿

Amaan
Ali Bangash and Ayaan Ali Bangash bring a magical touch to these well-known
devotional songs without changing what makes them special. The focus remains on
the feeling of devotion that devotees have carried in their hearts for years.﻿

Amaan
Ali Bangash said, &quot;These songs are very special to so many
devotees. While working on these renditions, we wanted to keep their simplicity
and devotion intact. We hope listeners enjoy hearing these familiar melodies
through the sound of the sarod.&quot;﻿

Ali Bangash added, &quot;These compositions are deeply connected
with people&#039;s faith and emotions. Playing them on the sarod was a special
experience for us.&quot;﻿

Aarti’s have been loved by devotees for years. Amaan Ali Bangash and Ayaan Ali

<description><![CDATA[ ●       
~250,000+ Citizens take the pledge to join the
One Unit Mission within three months 

●       
Expanding Green Yodha into a nationwide
people-led movement, Schneider Electric is encouraging Indians to take everyday
&#039;Energy Saving Actions&#039; and directly contribute towards India’s sustainability
acceleration 

New
Delhi, 26 June 2026 : Schneider Electric, a global energy
technology leader, has announced that 2,50,000 citizens have joined the One
Unit Mission which is part of its flagship Green Yodha sustainability
movement. The One Unit mission, a unique initiative which was launched
couple of months back, encourages citizens to save at least one unit of
electricity every day through smarter energy usage. 

As
India’s energy demand continues to rise, demand-side actions are emerging as a
critical lever in accelerating the country’s energy and sustainability
transition. Industry estimates suggest that every rupee saved on the demand
side, can reduce supply-side investments by a factor of 3, highlighting the
role of energy efficiency technologies and solutions in accelerating India’s
sustainability ambitions. 

Mr.
Deepak Sharma, Zone President – Greater India, MD &amp; CEO, Schneider Electric
India, said, “As India continues to grow, so will
our energy needs. At Schneider Electric, we believe the transition to a more
sustainable future is not only about producing cleaner energy but also about
using energy more efficiently. The cleanest, most sustainable unit of energy is
the one we don’t waste. If everyone saves even one unit of electricity a day,
the collective impact will be huge. Through the ‘One Unit Mission’, we hope to
inspire simple everyday actions that can together create a larger movement
towards sustainable living.” 

Through
the ‘One Unit Mission’, Schneider Electric is encouraging citizens to adopt
simple energy-saving habits in their everyday lives. The initiative begins with
small actions such as switching off unused devices and reducing standby power
consumption, encouraging households to adopt energy-efficient technologies,
smart power management, and home automation solutions for more efficient energy
use. 

Mr.
Rajat Abbi, Vice President – Marketing, Schneider Electric India,
said, “The ‘One Unit Mission’ was created with a simple belief that
sustainability should feel achievable. Through this campaign, we are
encouraging citizens to take small but meaningful steps towards smarter energy
use in their daily lives. What is especially encouraging is seeing communities
come together and turn individual actions into a larger movement for
sustainable living.”

As
participants progress in their sustainability journey, the campaign aims to
inspire communities to collectively move towards smarter, more
energy-efficient, and future-ready homes, with the long-term vision of enabling
a more sustainable living. Through this movement, Schneider Electric aims to
inspire a Green Yodha in every home by empowering citizens to contribute
towards a more sustainable planet while also helping reduce everyday energy
bills.

In
the coming months, Schneider Electric is expanding the ‘One Unit Mission’
through RWA-led community activations, digital participation drives, AI-powered
consumer engagement initiatives, and on-ground outreach programs designed to
turn everyday energy-saving actions into a larger citizen movement.

<title>Sustainable EV Solutions in India That Are Changing Commercial Mobility</title>
<link>https://en.newsbolt.in/sustainable-ev-solutions-in-india-that-are-changing-commercial-mobility</link>
<guid>https://en.newsbolt.in/sustainable-ev-solutions-in-india-that-are-changing-commercial-mobility</guid>
<description><![CDATA[ Sustainable EV solutions in India, such as
Drivn Transition Pvt Ltd, Zypp Electric, Euler Motors, and Switch Mobility, are
helping businesses shift from diesel-based fleets to electric trucks, buses,
cargo vehicles, and delivery fleets. For fleet operators, this shift makes
everyday transport cleaner and more cost-aware. It also gives businesses a
practical way to modernise commercial mobility without moving away from core
operations.

  Electric buses, trucks and commercial
  vehicles
  
  
  Brings scale, service reach and product
  depth to commercial EV adoption
  
 


Drivn
Transition Pvt Ltd

Drivn
Transition Pvt Ltd, an emerging sustainable EV leasing solutions provider,
operates in the commercial EV space with a focus on electric buses and medium
to heavy-duty trucks. Instead of selling vehicles outright, the company builds
its model around ownership and leasing.

For fleet operators and logistics
businesses, this approach removes the need for large upfront investments. It
allows companies to integrate electric vehicles into their operations while
gradually reducing reliance on diesel-based fleets.

Zypp Electric

Zypp Electric operates in the last-mile
delivery ecosystem, offering electric scooters and loaders on a rental basis.
Its services are widely used by e-commerce, grocery, food delivery and
hyperlocal logistics businesses that require consistent daily movement.

Because last-mile fleets operate at high
frequency in dense urban routes, the shift to electric mobility has a visible
sustainability impact. Zypp Electric supports the growth of sustainable EV
companies in India by enabling an asset-light rental model that removes
ownership barriers for delivery partners and businesses. This makes EV adoption
easier in high-usage urban logistics networks.

Euler Motors

Euler Motors develops electric vehicles
tailored for cargo movement and business transport. Its portfolio includes
three-wheelers, four-wheelers and cargo-focused EVs designed specifically for
commercial use cases across logistics and distribution networks.

The company plays an important role among
emerging commercial
sustainable EV companies in India, especially in the cargo and last-mile
delivery segment. By replacing diesel cargo vehicles with electric
alternatives, it helps businesses reduce emissions while maintaining
operational efficiency.

Switch Mobility

Switch Mobility, part of the Hinduja Group,
focuses on electric buses and light commercial vehicles. Drawing from Ashok
Leyland’s engineering strength and Optare’s global expertise, it develops
zero-emission solutions for both urban and intercity mobility.

Its offerings position it strongly within
the ecosystem of sustainable EV companies in India, particularly in public
transport electrification. The focus on buses and light commercial vehicles
makes it relevant for large-scale fleet transition projects.

Tata Motors Commercial Vehicles

Tata Motors Commercial Vehicles has been
steadily expanding its electric portfolio across passenger transport, freight
and logistics segments. As one of India’s largest commercial vehicle
manufacturers, it plays a central role in scaling EV adoption across
industries.

Its manufacturing scale, service network
and product range make it a key player among commercial sustainable EV
companies in India. It supports fleet electrification across buses and trucks, where
long-term reliability and uptime are critical.

Benefits of Switching to Sustainable EV
Solutions in India

Switching to sustainable EV solutions in
India helps businesses cut fuel costs, run cleaner operations and manage fleet
expenses more predictably over time.

Some specific benefits include:


 Lower fuel dependence: Electric
     fleets reduce daily reliance on diesel and petrol, which can help
     businesses manage fuel cost pressure. 
 Cleaner commercial operations: EVs
     produce no tailpipe emissions, making them useful for city logistics,
     employee transport and public mobility. 
 Better cost visibility: Sustainable
     EV leasing solutions can help fleet operators plan monthly costs more
     clearly instead of making large upfront vehicle investments. 
 Easier fleet expansion: Leasing
     and rental-led EV models allow businesses to test electric vehicles on
     selected routes before scaling further. 
 Reduced maintenance needs: EVs
     have fewer moving parts than diesel vehicles, which may help lower
     maintenance complexity over time. 
 Support for ESG goals: Commercial
     EV adoption can help businesses show progress on cleaner transport and
     lower-emission supply chains. 


To Conclude

Sustainable
EV companies in India are becoming important for businesses that
depend on daily fleet movement. Drivn, Zypp Electric, Euler Motors, Switch
Mobility and Tata Motors Commercial Vehicles show how commercial EV adoption
can work through leasing, rentals, electric cargo vehicles, buses and trucks.
For fleet operators, these solutions offer a practical path to cleaner
transport, lower fuel dependence and better long-term fleet planning.

Frequently Asked Questions

01.  
Which are the leading
sustainable EV companies in India for commercial mobility?

Written by S. Sridhar, Super Yoddha follows the

filled with warrior clans, supernatural abilities, rival kingdoms, betrayals,
epic battles, and a relentless pursuit of redemption. Across thousands of
episodes, listeners have followed Dhruv&#039;s evolution from a fallen prodigy to a
legendary warrior fighting to protect his realm from forces that threaten its
very existence. The show&#039;s blend of fantasy, mythology, action and emotional
storytelling has helped it build a passionate listener community across India.
Its success also highlights a larger shift in audience consumption habits,

<title>Century Real Estate Unveils Century Immencity, a 50+ Acre Globally benchmarked Urban Lifestyle Destination in North Bengaluru’s Jakkur</title>
<link>https://en.newsbolt.in/century-real-estate-unveils-century-immencity-a-50-acre-globally-benchmarked-urban-lifestyle-destination-in-north-bengalurus-jakkur</link>
<guid>https://en.newsbolt.in/century-real-estate-unveils-century-immencity-a-50-acre-globally-benchmarked-urban-lifestyle-destination-in-north-bengalurus-jakkur</guid>
<description><![CDATA[  

Spread across 11 million sq. ft.,
Century Immencity is envisioned as a five-district lifestyle destination in
North Bengaluru, featuring 5 unique districts, including homes, offices,
hospitality, retail and F&amp;B

Bengaluru : Century Real Estate, one of Bengaluru’s leading real estate
developers, has announced Century Immencity, a 50+ acre mixed-use development
in Jakkur, North Bengaluru, designed to become a landmark lifestyle address on
the International Airport Road corridor. The project brings together commercial
spaces, premium residences, high-street retail, hospitality, food, culture,
open spaces and curated lifestyle experiences within one integrated urban
ecosystem.

North Bengaluru is moving beyond being a
connectivity-led corridor to becoming one of Bengaluru’s most important
business, residential and lifestyle growth centres. This transformation is
being supported by airport-led development, improvements to road
infrastructure, and planned metro connectivity. Key infrastructure initiatives
such as the Satellite Town Ring Road, Bengaluru Business Corridor and improved
connectivity to Kempegowda International Airport are further strengthening the
region’s long-term potential. Jakkur’s strategic location, proximity to
established and fast-growing catchments such as Hebbal, Yelahanka, Thanisandra,
Sahakarnagar and Hennur, and access to large contiguous land parcels create a
rare opportunity to shape a destination of this scale and ambition.

Century Immencity has been envisioned as an
integrated destination where business, living and lifestyle work together from
the outset. Being developed in collaboration with DP Architects, Singapore and
BDP Landscape, London, the project brings global design thinking and mixed-use
benchmarking to North Bengaluru. Inspired by leading international urban districts
such as Hudson Yards, Canary Wharf and other modern global ecosystems.

In terms of scale, Century Immencity will
comprise close to 10 million sq. ft. of commercial leasing, alongside expansive
residential and high-street retail development, complemented by a proposed
5-star hospitality development. The development will be introduced in phases,
with Phase 1 comprising approximately 1 million sq. ft. each of residential and
commercial development already under construction. Planned as a high-intensity business
and lifestyle destination, Century Immencity is expected to attract a strong
mix of Fortune 500 companies, GCCs, global enterprises, premium couture,
F&amp;B and hospitality brands. The campus will also include a planned metro
station within the development, further strengthening access for professionals,
residents and visitors. At maturity, Immencity is expected to support over 1
lakh professionals, while creating a strong economic and social anchor for one
of Bengaluru’s fastest-growing corridors.



Designed as a city within a city, Century
Immencity brings together the key elements of modern urban life within one
integrated destination. With premium residences, Grade A commercial spaces,
high-street retail, hospitality, dining, open spaces and curated lifestyle
experiences planned within a single ecosystem, the development is intended to
offer residents, professionals and visitors the comfort of having work,
leisure, convenience and community close at hand. The idea is to create a
self-sustaining urban environment where the everyday experience is elevated,
seamless and complete, reducing the need to step out frequently for workday
conveniences, social engagements or lifestyle needs.

Its location in Jakkur on North Bengaluru’s
Airport Road corridor further strengthens its appeal as a premium business and
lifestyle address. With Kempegowda International Airport located within a
convenient driving distance, Immencity is well-positioned for global
enterprises, senior leadership teams, business travellers and expatriate
professionals who require efficient airport access while avoiding the city’s
heavier traffic corridors. The development also offers strong connectivity to
Bengaluru’s established business districts, with the CBD reachable in
approximately 45 minutes. The upcoming Blue Line metro is expected to
significantly improve access between North Bengaluru, the airport corridor,
Whitefield and the IT hubs along Outer Ring Road. This combination of airport
proximity, future metro connectivity and integrated mixed-use planning
positions Century Immencity as a world-class urban destination for businesses,
residents and visitors alike.

The residential component will feature an
intentionally limited collection of 334 Neo Luxe residences, including 3&amp;4
bed homes ranging from 2,200 sq. ft. to 3,020 sq. ft., along with exclusive
penthouses. 

Speaking on the announcement, Mr P.
Ravindra Pai, Managing Director, Century Real Estate, said, “Century Immencity is envisioned as a landmark development
for North Bengaluru, shaped by the scale and momentum of the airport corridor.
We intend to create an ecosystem inspired by the world’s finest global
campuses, where the best of international design, commerce, hospitality and
lifestyle converge in one destination. Our vision is to build a future-ready
urban environment that supports how businesses scale, how professionals spend
their day, and how families experience a more connected way of living. With its
location, scale and planning approach, Century Immencity reflects Century Real
Estate’s commitment to building future-ready urban communities that create
long-term value for Bengaluru.”

The commercial component of Century
Immencity is designed for leading global and domestic enterprises, including
Fortune 500 occupiers and GCCs. The development draws from a human-centric
planning philosophy, where business, mobility, landscape and everyday
experiences are designed to work seamlessly together. With a largely
vehicle-free campus, pedestrian-first movement, shaded walkways, electric
internal transport and thoughtfully planned public realms, the project
prioritises comfort, accessibility and ease of movement. Sustainability is
embedded into the planning logic, with 75% open spaces, including over 35 acres
of curated open space for residents, professionals and visitors, along with
native tree retention, green buffers and climate-responsive design. Guided by
Platinum LEED-aligned development principles, Century Immencity is being
planned as an efficient, responsible and future-ready urban environment.

As North Bengaluru enters its next phase of
growth, Century Immencity is positioned to become a defining urban anchor,
drawing businesses, residents, visitors and communities into a destination
designed for both daily convenience and long-term value creation.

<title>Bridging Heritage and Modernity: Amrsy Home&amp;apos;s Design Story Across India</title>
<link>https://en.newsbolt.in/bridging-heritage-and-modernity-amrsy-homes-design-story-across-india</link>
<guid>https://en.newsbolt.in/bridging-heritage-and-modernity-amrsy-homes-design-story-across-india</guid>
<description><![CDATA[ With roots in Assam and
a growing presence in Gurgaon&#039;s evolving design landscape, Amrsy Home is
blending craftsmanship, manufacturing expertise and personalised design to
create furniture that is tailored to modern Indian living.

India&#039;s furniture
industry is witnessing a shift. Homeowners are increasingly moving away from
standardised solutions and embracing spaces that reflect their individual
lifestyles. As this demand for personalised interiors grows, brands with strong
manufacturing foundations are finding new relevance in the market.

Among them is Amrsy
Home, a bespoke furniture and interior solutions company whose journey spans
two distinct regions of the country — Assam and Gurgaon.

While
Gurgaon has emerged as one of India&#039;s most dynamic hubs for architecture,
luxury residences and contemporary interiors, Assam has long been associated
with craftsmanship, material knowledge and a culture that values handmade
excellence. Amrsy Home&#039;s story brings these two worlds together.

As homes become
increasingly personal, furniture is no longer viewed as just a functional
element within a space. It has become a reflection of lifestyle, personality
and the way people choose to live. This shift has fuelled the demand for
customised interiors, and brands like Amrsy Home are responding with furniture
that is designed around the individual rather than the trend.

Built
on more than three decades of manufacturing experience, Amrsy Home has steadily
established itself as a destination for homeowners seeking thoughtfully crafted
furniture and tailored interior solutions. The brand&#039;s approach is simple:
every home is different, and the furniture within it should be too.

At a time when
mass-produced designs dominate the market, Amrsy Home focuses on creating
pieces that feel personal. Whether it is a statement dining table, a custom
wardrobe, a sophisticated living room setup or a complete home interior, each
project begins with understanding the client&#039;s vision. The goal is not simply
to fill a space, but to create something that naturally belongs within it.

What makes the process
unique is the balance between craftsmanship and modern manufacturing. While
advanced technology ensures precision and consistency, skilled artisans bring
character and detail to every piece. This combination allows Amrsy Home to
create furniture that is both functional and refined, designed to withstand
everyday use while maintaining its visual appeal over time.



The
brand believes that great furniture should evolve with the lives of the people
who use it. Rather than following short-lived design trends, its focus remains
on timeless aesthetics, practical functionality and quality materials. The
result is furniture that feels relevant today and continues to do so for years
to come.

Personalisation remains
at the heart of the Amrsy Home experience. We encourage exploring layouts,
finishes, materials and design details that align with their preferences and
lifestyle needs.

This collaborative
process often leads to spaces that feel more authentic, where every element
contributes to a cohesive and meaningful living environment.

In recent years, Indian
homeowners have become increasingly conscious about the quality and
individuality of their interiors. There is a growing appreciation for furniture
that tells a story and adds depth to a space rather than simply serving a
purpose. Amrsy Home&#039;s design philosophy aligns closely with this evolving
mindset, offering solutions that combine aesthetics with everyday practicality.

Beyond standalone
furniture pieces, the company also provides end-to-end interior solutions,
helping clients create homes with a consistent design language. From
conceptualisation and design development to manufacturing and installation, the
process is managed with careful attention to detail, ensuring that every space
feels thoughtfully considered.

Material selection
plays an equally important role. Each project is approached with a focus on
durability, comfort and visual harmony. Premium finishes, carefully chosen
materials and meticulous execution come together to create furniture that not
only enhances a space but also enriches the experience of living within it.

As design preferences
continue to move towards personalised and meaningful spaces, the role of
bespoke furniture is becoming increasingly significant. Homeowners today are
looking for more than standard solutions; they are seeking pieces that reflect
who they are and how they live.

For Amrsy Home, that
idea has been central to its journey. Drawing inspiration from its roots in
Assam while serving a new generation of homeowners in Gurgaon and beyond, the
brand continues to create furniture that is defined not by trends, but by the
people who live with it.

By combining
craftsmanship, technology and a customer-first approach, the brand continues to
create furniture and interiors that feel uniquely connected to the people who
use them. The result is not just a beautifully designed home, but a space that
feels genuinely personal from the moment one steps inside. In an industry often
driven by standardisation, Amrsy Home&#039;s journey demonstrates the value of
craftsmanship, personalisation and a strong connection to place — proving that
great furniture is not just made, but thoughtfully created.

<title>It’s Time to Recognise Corporate Communication as ‘The Fifth Estate’, Says Pavan Kaushik in New Book</title>
<link>https://en.newsbolt.in/its-time-to-recognise-corporate-communication-as-the-fifth-estate-says-pavan-kaushik-in-new-book</link>
<guid>https://en.newsbolt.in/its-time-to-recognise-corporate-communication-as-the-fifth-estate-says-pavan-kaushik-in-new-book</guid>
<description><![CDATA[ NEW DELHI: At
a time when organisations face unprecedented scrutiny from stakeholders,
investors, regulators, communities and digital audiences, Corporate
Communication &amp; Reputation Advisor Pavan Kaushik has
released his fourth book, The Fifth Estate, arguing that Corporate
Communication has evolved into an institution shaping organisational trust,
credibility and acceptance.

Positioned as a boardroom guide for
chairpersons, promoters, founders, CEOs, CXOs and communication leaders, The
Fifth Estate explores where organisations often go wrong on
communication, why communication is frequently excluded from strategic
decision-making, and how this oversight can create reputation, stakeholder and
business risks.

Drawing on more than 35 years of experience
across mining, metals, energy, infrastructure, manufacturing and sustainability
sectors, the book examines why many organisations continue to underestimate
communication despite operating in an era of heightened visibility, digital
scrutiny and growing stakeholder expectations.

The book is based on Pavan Kaushik’s
long-held belief that while businesses invest heavily in operations, finance
and technology, they often underestimate the strategic value of communication
until a reputation challenge, stakeholder conflict or crisis emerges.

At the centre of the book is Pavan
Kaushik’s proposition that Corporate Communication deserves recognition as “The
Fifth Estate” because of its expanding influence on governance, stakeholder
alignment and organisational resilience.

“The Fifth Estate status of Corporate
Communication has not been granted; it has been earned. More than 125 years of
evolution, institutional relevance, stakeholder dependence and professional
contribution have made Corporate Communication deserve recognition as an
institution shaping trust, reputation and stakeholder confidence,” said Pavan
Kaushik.

The book argues that many promoters,
founders and CXOs continue to view communication as a support activity even as
reputation, trust and stakeholder perception increasingly influence business
outcomes.

“Organisations are increasingly judged by
what stakeholders understand, believe and trust about them. Operational
excellence alone is no longer sufficient in an environment shaped by constant
visibility, digital scrutiny and rising stakeholder expectations,” Pavan
Kaushik said.

The book examines leadership communication,
crisis preparedness, stakeholder engagement, reputation management, community
relations and the growing importance of communication in governance and
institutional credibility. It presents Corporate Communication as a strategic
discipline that influences how organisations are understood, trusted and
accepted by stakeholders.

“Corporate Communication is no longer a
support function operating at the margins of organisations. It is increasingly
influencing leadership credibility, governance perception, stakeholder
acceptance and long-term organisational continuity,” Pavan Kaushik added.

According to the author, the growing
significance of Corporate Communication is no longer limited to large
corporations but is increasingly relevant for startups, unicorns, MSMEs, SMEs
and rapidly scaling enterprises navigating complex stakeholder environments.

“Performance creates results. Communication
creates understanding. Understanding creates trust. Trust ultimately determines
whether organisations earn acceptance, credibility and long-term
sustainability,” said Pavan Kaushik.

Through The Fifth Estate, Pavan
Kaushik seeks to initiate a broader conversation among business leaders on why
communication deserves a seat at the leadership table and why it should be
viewed as a strategic leadership capability essential to modern organisational
success.

The Fifth Estate argues that while businesses compete through products,
technology and capital, their long-term licence to operate increasingly depends
on trust, understanding and stakeholder confidence. ]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[ BBA and MBA programme students to gain
access to globally recognised business simulations, case-based learning and
leadership development experiences from July 2026

New Delhi, June 25, 2026 : Pearl Academy School of Business has announced a strategic
partnership with Harvard Business Impact (HBI) to strengthen experiential
learning and embed globally benchmarked business education practices into its
undergraduate and postgraduate programmes. The collaboration marks a
significant milestone in Pearl Academy School of Business’ mission to reimagine

Business Impact resources, including Harvard case studies, business
simulations, Harvard ManageMentor courses, certified learning programmes, articles,
videos, book chapters and online learning content from Harvard Business School
and many other leading business institutions around the world. These resources
will be integrated deeply into the curriculum, giving students hands-on
exposure to real-world business challenges while building leadership,
decision-making, and strategic thinking skills.

As organisations navigate transformation
driven by artificial intelligence, digital disruption, and shifting consumer
behaviour, demand continues to grow for graduates who can think critically,
adapt quickly, and create value across complex business environments. Through
this partnership, Pearl Academy School of Business will provide students with
immersive learning experiences that place them at the centre of real-world
business challenges, enabling them to navigate ambiguity, evaluate competing

of bringing CEOs into the classroom, Harvard’s case studies and simulations
will expose students to diverse leadership perspectives and real-world business
decision-making.”

Beyond student learning, the collaboration
will also support faculty development through specialised enablement
programmes, including Teaching with Cases workshops and other initiatives
designed to strengthen case-based and simulation-led teaching across the
institution.

Dviwesh Mehta, Director, Harvard
Business Impact, India, said, “Pearl
Academy School of Business is taking a forward-looking approach to business
education by combining innovation, creativity and experiential learning. We are
pleased to partner with the institution in bringing globally recognised
learning experiences to students and helping prepare them for success in an
increasingly complex and fast-changing business environment.”

The partnership reinforces Pearl Academy
School of Business’ future-focused educational philosophy, where nearly 40% of
the curriculum is dedicated to AI, emerging technologies and their application
across business functions. Built on four core pillars—Founder’s Mindset,
Industry Powered Learning, Art and Science of Business, and Domain CoLab—the
institution combines interdisciplinary collaboration, industry immersion,
venture creation and global exposure to prepare students for a rapidly changing
business landscape. Through this approach, students develop entrepreneurial
thinking, gain hands-on experience with technology-driven innovation and learn
to lead across the intersections of creativity, business and technology. As
industries continue to evolve, Pearl Academy School of Business is redefining

<title>RAHSTA 2026 Maps the Future of India’s Roads</title>
<link>https://en.newsbolt.in/rahsta-2026-maps-the-future-of-indias-roads</link>
<guid>https://en.newsbolt.in/rahsta-2026-maps-the-future-of-indias-roads</guid>
<description><![CDATA[ Asia’s largest roads and highways platform to showcase
innovations, policy dialogue and industry excellence on July 8-9

Mumbai: India’s road infrastructure sector
is approaching a defining moment. After years of record highway construction,
the focus is shifting from building more roads to building better ones—roads
that are more durable, technology-enabled, sustainable and capable of
delivering greater lifecycle value.

These priorities will take centre stage at the 16th
RAHSTA Expo 2026 (Roads and Highways Sustainable Technologies &amp;
Advancement), to be held on July 8-9, 2026, at the Jio World
Convention Centre, Mumbai.

Organised by ASAPP Info Global Group, in association
with the FIRST Construction Council, the 16th RAHSTA will build on these
discussions by bringing together the complete roads and highways ecosystem to
explore solutions for India&#039;s next phase of infrastructure development.

With the theme “Roads, Highways, Bridges &amp; Tunnels –
Connecting Sustainably, Safely, Smartly,” the event will showcase how
innovation, digitalisation, advanced construction equipment, sustainable
materials and collaborative policymaking are reshaping the country’s transport
infrastructure.

At a time when India’s infrastructure ambitions are
accelerating under Vision 2047, the industry is also confronting new realities.
Contractors are becoming more selective, project financing models are evolving,
technology adoption is gathering pace, sustainability is becoming integral to
infrastructure development, and lifecycle performance is increasingly taking
precedence over lowest-cost construction.

These issues formed the basis of two high-level industry roundtable
discussions organised in the run-up to RAHSTA 2026, bringing together leading
contractors, infrastructure developers, equipment manufacturers, consultants,
technology providers and policymakers.

“What this has done is create a 360-degree attack. Materials,
equipment, labour, capital—everything is being affected simultaneously. Our
industry already works on very thin margins, and this has added another layer
of pressure,” said Pratap Padode, Founder, FIRST Construction Council,
while discussing the impact of rising global uncertainties on India’s road
construction sector. “How sustainable is road construction when input costs are
rising but bids are still falling? On one hand, negative bids show appetite. On
the other, they also indicate serious inherent risk in project execution,
quality and completion,” he added.

Lt Gen Rajeev Chaudhry (Retd.), Former Director General,
Border Roads Organisation and Chairman, RAHSTA Committee, cautioned that India’s infrastructure ambitions must be
supported by better procurement practices and long-term thinking. “The ‘easy’
highway projects are largely behind us. The future lies in technically
demanding projects across difficult terrains. Success will depend on stronger
collaboration between policymakers, contractors, financiers and technology
providers.”

Highlighting the growing importance of RAHSTA as a national
infrastructure platform, Deepak Kumar, IAS, Infrastructure &amp; Industrial
Development Commissioner, Government of Uttar Pradesh, commented in a video
interview, “RAHSTA provides an excellent platform for states to showcase our
infrastructure progress and investment ecosystem. Uttar Pradesh has transformed
significantly over the past decade, backed by more than 34 investor-friendly
industrial policies, and platforms like RAHSTA help communicate these
developments to industry stakeholders from across the country.”

A comprehensive industry platform

RAHSTA Expo 2026 will showcase the latest innovations across
the entire roads and highways ecosystem, including road construction equipment,
earthmoving and paving machinery, bridge and tunnel technologies, intelligent
transport systems, road safety solutions, geosynthetics and advanced

<description><![CDATA[ ~
Marks three decades of nurturing creative talent, shaping industry-ready
professionals, and contributing to India&#039;s growing AVGC-XR ecosystem~

National,
June 24, 2026 :  Arena Animation,
a pioneer in animation, gaming, visual effects, and digital media education and
a training brand of Aptech Limited  is
commemorating 30 years of excellence in creative training and skill
development. Since its inception in 1996, the brand has played a pivotal role
in shaping careers across Animation, Visual Effects (VFX), Gaming, Digital
Content Creation, AR/VR, Multimedia, and related creative disciplines,
empowering over 5 lakh students worldwide to pursue opportunities in the global
creative economy.

The
milestone marks three decades of Arena Animation&#039;s commitment to nurturing
talent, driving innovation, and building a skilled workforce for the rapidly
evolving AVGC-XR (Animation, Visual Effects, Gaming, Comics and Extended
Reality) sector. Today, as India emerges as a global hub for digital content
creation and creative technologies, Arena Animation continues to strengthen its
position as a leading talent development partner for the industry.

Over
the years, Arena Animation has expanded its footprint having over 210 centres
across 100+ cities &amp; towns globally, building one of the country&#039;s largest
creative education networks. Backed by Aptech Limited&#039;s 40-year legacy in
education and skilling, the brand has consistently evolved its curriculum to
align with emerging technologies, industry requirements, and changing career
aspirations. Recently, Arena also successfully launched its Academic
Advisory Board in Mumbai, marking a significant step towards strengthening
industry-academia collaboration in India’s AVGC-XR and creative sectors. At
Arena Animation, staying aligned with evolving industry needs has always been a
priority. Guided by the philosophy of &quot;Learn from the Leader,”
Arena believes students learn best from professionals who are actively shaping
the industry. The Academic Advisory Board has been established to bring
this expertise directly into the learning journey, ensuring curriculum remains
relevant, future-focused, and validated by leading industry practitioners.

Interestingly,
while Indian studios have traditionally served as production partners for
global projects, the success of homegrown IPs such as The Legend of Hanuman and
the global reception of Netflix&#039;s Kurukshetra signal a significant shift in the
industry. With audiences increasingly embracing diverse, locally rooted
stories, demand for original content across genres continues to grow.
Recognising this opportunity, Arena Animation is expanding its focus beyond
skill development to nurture the next generation of creators, storytellers, and
entrepreneurs. Through initiatives such as Arena Animation Originals, students

leading studios, production houses, gaming companies, broadcasters, and digital
content organisations, including DNEG, Rockstar Games, Zebu Animation, Green
Gold Animation, ILM, NYVFXWALA, Network18, Digitoonz, and many others. Several
alumni have been credited on internationally acclaimed and Oscar-nominated
film projects, while others have distinguished themselves at prestigious
platforms such as the IndiaSkills Competition and proudly represented
India at the WorldSkills Competition. Many have also received
recognition and accolades from state governments and dignitaries, including
Chief Ministers, for their outstanding achievements in the creative sectors.
Their success stories stand as a powerful testament to the brand&#039;s focus on
industry-aligned learning and career excellence.

 Speaking on the
occasion, Mr. Sandip Weling, Whole-time Director &amp; Chief Business
Officer, Aptech Limited said, “As Arena Animation celebrates 30 years,
we take immense pride in the impact our students, alumni, faculty, franchise
partners, and industry collaborators have created together. This milestone is
not merely a celebration of our legacy but a reaffirmation of our commitment to
the future. As the creative economy continues to expand, our focus remains on
empowering aspiring creators with industry-relevant skills, fostering
innovation, and enabling them to become creators, storytellers, entrepreneurs,
and leaders in the global AVGC-XR ecosystem.&quot;

Mr.
Shajan Samuel, Sr Vice President &amp; National Sales Head- Arena Animation,
said, “India&#039;s AVGC-XR sector is poised for
significant growth, supported by increasing global demand for content,
technological advancements, and policy support. With its strong legacy,
extensive industry network, and future-focused learning ecosystem, Arena
Animation remains committed to playing a meaningful role in building the next
generation of creative professionals and contributing to India&#039;s emergence as a
global creative powerhouse.”

part of its 30-year celebrations, Arena Animation is launching a series of
initiatives aimed at strengthening engagement with students, alumni, industry
partners, and the wider creative community. These include alumni engagement,
industry outreach initiatives across multiple cities. The initiative aligns

<title>Kayhan Entertainment Launches ‘Smart KidZ’ on ZEE5 Kidz, Expanding Its Vision for Emotionally Intelligent Indian Storytelling</title>

<description><![CDATA[  

 “Pause. Think. Act.” -  A new-age animated edutainment IP helping
children navigate real-life situations through smart thinking, emotional
awareness, and practical learning.

Mumbai,
June 24th, 2026 : Kayhan Entertainment,
an integrated IP-led ecosystem with a strategic focus on IP ownership and
creative exports, has announced the launch of its latest premium animated
edutainment IP, Smart KidZ, exclusively on ZEE5 Kidz. Designed for children
aged 7 to 13, the series combines fast-paced storytelling, humour, emotional
intelligence, and practical life learning to help children navigate real-world
situations through entertainment-led storytelling. Built around the simple
philosophy of “Pause. Think. Act.”, the show transforms everyday childhood challenges
into engaging animated adventures designed for today’s digitally native
children. Starting June 5, 2026, the series will roll out in an initial batch
of 5 to 10 episodes.

Smart
KidZ focuses on situations children experience every day but are rarely taught
how to handle, from friendship conflicts, peer pressure, comparison anxiety,
and emotional reactions to practical moments like power cuts, digital
behaviour, stranger awareness, responsibility, and decision-making. Instead of
relying on preachy messaging or traditional moral-based storytelling, the
series uses humour, magical mentors, action, and visual problem-solving to
allow children to naturally arrive at the learning through the story itself.
Designed for both children and parents, the show blends entertainment with
Thoughtful meaningful and practical takeaways that young viewers can apply in
real life.

Founded
by Dalbir Singh and Arushi Govil, Kayhan is being built through a distinctive
creative partnership that brings together vision and execution in equal
measure. As one of India’s most defining IP-creator couple, the two founders
combine storytelling ambition, worldbuilding expertise, and production
discipline to create and scale original IP from India. Their complementary
strengths are shaping Kayhan into an integrated creative ecosystem designed to
accelerate India’s shift from execution-led services to ownership-driven
storytelling.

Speaking
about the launch, Dalbir Singh, Co-Founder, Kayhan Entertainment, said,
“Smart KidZ represents an important step in our larger IP expansion strategy
where storytelling becomes emotionally useful while remaining entertaining at
its core. Children today are growing up in a world that moves faster than ever
before, and many of the challenges they face are emotional, behavioural, and
practical rather than academic. Through Smart KidZ, we wanted to create stories
that help children slow down, think clearly, and respond better to situations
around them. Our focus continues to be on building original Indian IP that can
create long-term value while also connecting meaningfully with modern
families.”

Adding
to this, Arushi Govil, Co-Founder, Kayhan Entertainment, said, “Children
today are emotionally aware much earlier, but they are also exposed to
confusion, pressure, comparison, and information overload at a very young age.
Smart KidZ was designed to support both children and parents through stories
that feel warm, relatable, practical, and Life-skills focused.We did not want
the show to feel like teaching. We wanted the learning to happen naturally
through humour, adventure, and relatable situations. The idea is to help
children become more Self-aware ,confident, thoughtful, and prepared for
everyday life.”

At
the heart of Smart KidZ are recurring mentor characters who guide children
through emotional and practical situations using curiosity, teamwork, calm
thinking, and empathy-led problem-solving. Anand and the Fab 5 bring humour,
energy, and practical thinking into everyday chaos, while Tara and his team,
including Darmiya and Saku, step in during moments that require courage,
emotional clarity, safety, and confidence. Every episode is designed around
relatable childhood experiences and leaves viewers with one simple takeaway
they can remember and apply in real life, whether it is pausing before
reacting, asking questions before assuming, respecting boundaries, apologising
properly, staying calm during stressful moments, or making smarter decisions.
With Smart KidZ, Kayhan Entertainment continues to expand its vision of
building emotionally relevant, culturally rooted, and scalable Indian IP
designed for the next generation of digital audiences.

The
launch of Smart KidZ comes at a time when children&#039;s content is emerging as one
of the most promising segments within the global media and entertainment
industry. With India home to one of the world&#039;s largest youth populations and
its digital video audience continuing to expand rapidly, the demand for
high-quality, culturally relevant, and digitally native children&#039;s programming
continues to grow across OTT platforms, YouTube, connected TV, and gaming
ecosystems. Globally, animation continues to grow as a scalable
family-entertainment category, driven by increasing consumption of family
entertainment and franchise-led storytelling. Against this backdrop, Smart KidZ
reflects Kayhan Entertainment&#039;s broader vision of creating culturally rooted
entertainment that combines meaningful storytelling with long-term franchise
potential, positioning India not only as a content production hub but as a
creator and exporter of globally relevant intellectual property.

original IP rooted in Indian culture and designed for global audiences.

<title>India’s First AI&#45;Powered Land Management Platform ‘The Land Bankers’ Launched to Resolve Property Disputes</title>
<link>https://en.newsbolt.in/indias-first-ai-powered-land-management-platform-the-land-bankers-launched-to-resolve-property-disputes</link>
<guid>https://en.newsbolt.in/indias-first-ai-powered-land-management-platform-the-land-bankers-launched-to-resolve-property-disputes</guid>
<description><![CDATA[ BHUBANESWAR, INDIA : In a significant move to tackle the legal complexities of land
ownership and transactions in India, &#039;The Land Bankers&#039; (thelandbankers.com) has officially launched its innovative, first-of-its-kind
Artificial Intelligence (AI) powered platform at a premier hotel in
Bhubaneswar. Strengthening its physical roots in the state, the company has
established its first office at the IIT Research and Entrepreneurship Park in
Bhubaneswar, along with a second branch at Telengapentha in Cuttack.

 

Property transactions in India are
frequently hindered by fraudulent documentation, incorrect records, and illegal
encroachments, creating prolonged disputes that cause mental distress and deter
investors. &#039;The Land Bankers&#039; addresses these critical issues by leveraging
advanced technology to provide a seamless, secure, and permanent solution.

 

The platform enables users to
verify the actual status of land, analyze and monitor legal documents using AI,
obtain accurate property valuations, and access expert legal counsel. With just
a single click, citizens can view a transparent summary of official government
land records, incorporating a user-friendly tool to easily navigate portals
like Bhulekh Odisha (thelandbankers.com/bhulekh-odisha). This prevents future fraud and empowers locals to understand
their property data easily. Additionally, the digital transparency serves as a
robust tool for state and central governments to detect deed forgery, halt
illegal encroachments, and expedite dispute resolution.

 

The visionary platform is founded
by Amarendra Sahu, who conceived the idea after witnessing firsthand
howproperty disputes tear families apart. &quot;Land disputes and partitioning
destroy relationships. My primary mission is to make property ownership simple,
transparent, and completely dispute-free,&quot; Sahu
stated. The core team also features AI Head Bikash Patra and UI/UX Specialist
Shanavas Baiju.



According to Sahu, almost every
family in India has dealt with a land headache at some point. &quot;Whether
it&#039;s a delayed sale, a family dispute, messy records, or the constant fear of
someone else claiming your property,&quot; Sahu shared. &quot;We spent almost
two years building The Land Bankers so property owners can finally have clear
information, transparency, and peace of mind.&quot;

 

Before officially launching, the
company did a three-month test run with about 1,100 customers across all 30
districts of Odisha. The strong response proved that people really need help
securing their land titles and making property transactions smoother. Right now,
the startup is focusing on growing its roots in Odisha, with plans to
eventually expand into Karnataka and Tamil Nadu.


Soobhankar Pati, the CEO of IIT Bhubaneswar Research and Entrepreneurship Park,
pointed out that land is one of the most important sectors in India, yet it has
largely been left behind by modern tech. He praised TLB for taking on such a
massive and complicated problem by blending modern technology, AI, and expert
knowledge.

 

While rooted in Odisha, &#039;The Land
Bankers&#039; plans to rapidly expand its operations to other major states, with
Karnataka and Tamil Nadu targeted in the next phase. The launch event saw
widespread praise from prominent real estate developers, early consumers, and
journalists, who collectively emphasized that the platform is set to ignite a
golden era for the real estate and land management sector in Odisha.

<guid>https://en.newsbolt.in/bengaluru-to-host-500-founders-and-launch-dedicated-startup-fund-at-india-startup-week-2026</guid>
<description><![CDATA[ BENGALURU,
June 24, 2026 : India Startup Week 2026 (ISW26) officially
launched on 20th June 2026 in Bengaluru, unveiling an ambitious three-day
startup festival designed to connect founders, investors, mentors, policymakers
and ecosystem leaders under one roof.

Scheduled
from August 21–23, 2026, ISW26 is expected to bring together 500+ founders,
100+ investors, family offices, venture capital firms and startup enablers,
reinforcing Bengaluru&#039;s position as India&#039;s leading startup hub.

The
event was launched at a Curtain Raiser hosted by Official Festival Partner
DoubleTree by Hilton, where organizers unveiled a series of initiatives aimed
at addressing some of the biggest challenges faced by startups—access to
capital, mentorship, governance support and sustainable growth.

Speaking
on the vision behind the initiative, Ujjwal Mukhia, Founder, India Startup
Week, said &quot;India Startup Week was born from a simple belief—that every
founder deserves access to opportunities, guidance and capital regardless of
where they start. We are creating a platform that brings together
entrepreneurs, investors, mentors and industry leaders to help transform ideas
into scalable businesses. Our vision is to make ISW one of India&#039;s most
influential startup ecosystem platforms and a catalyst for the next generation
of entrepreneurs.&quot;

One
of the key announcements at the launch was the introduction of a 360-Degree
Startup Support Platform, unveiled by Ramani Iyer, Partner &amp; Advisor, India
Startup Week, Co-Founder of Justdial and Founder of Elephant God Accelerator.
The platform will support startups with compliance, governance, financial
planning, mentorship, investor readiness and business growth.

ISW26
also announced the launch of the ISW Fund in partnership with World 5 Fund,
aimed at facilitating access to Seed, Series A and growth-stage capital through
a curated network of investors, venture capital firms, family offices and HNIs.

Commenting
on the initiative, Ramani Iyer,  Partner
&amp; Advisor, India Startup Week, said &quot;India has no shortage of
brilliant entrepreneurs. What many founders need is structured access to
capital, mentorship, governance support and the right ecosystem at the right
stage of growth. India Startup Week has been designed as a platform that brings
all these elements together, helping startups move from idea to scale with
confidence and clarity.&quot;

The
event will also introduce the India Startup Week Club (ISWC), a year-round
founder and investor community designed to foster networking, learning,
mentorship and business opportunities beyond the festival.

As
Official Workspace Partner, BHIVE will host a series of Startup Roadshows
across Bengaluru, offering startup audits, mentorship sessions and
funding-readiness support in the lead-up to the event.

Speaking
about the future vision of the platform, Vikram Shah, Director, India Startup
Week, said &quot;India Startup Week is not just another startup conference. We
are building a founder-first ecosystem that combines capital access,
mentorship, networking and year-round community engagement. Our vision is to
grow ISW into a national platform that connects founders, investors and
ecosystem leaders across India&#039;s leading startup cities. Bengaluru is just the
beginning, and we are excited to announce Hyderabad as the next destination in
our journey to build a stronger and more connected entrepreneurial
ecosystem.&quot;

Organizers
also announced that following the Bengaluru edition, India Startup Week will
expand to Hyderabad later this year, marking the beginning of a multi-city
strategy aimed at creating stronger regional startup communities and deeper
founder-investor engagement across India.

Unlike
traditional startup conferences, ISW26 will feature Founder Mentoring Zones,
Investor Connect Sessions, Startup Showcase Areas, Innovation Experiences,
Wellness Programs and curated networking opportunities. The three-day festival
will include a Startup Networking Summit, Masterclasses, Startup Excellence
Awards, Investor Connect Sessions and the India Startup Week Awards.

The
launch event was attended by startup founders, investors and ecosystem leaders
including Rakesh Meghani, Kashish Mukhia, Sri Krishna Chaitanya Swami (ISKCON
GBCM) and Shyam Kumar, General Manager, DoubleTree by Hilton.

With
Bengaluru already, home to one of the world&#039;s most vibrant startup ecosystems,
India Startup Week 2026 aims to create a powerful platform that accelerates
innovation, investment and entrepreneurial growth across the country. For

offering consultant-led outpatient care for women, newborns, children and
adolescents in one convenient location.

The

medicine services, gynecological consultations, management of high-risk
pregnancies, well-woman health services and follow-up care, while also

With
an emphasis on early diagnosis, preventive healthcare and continuity of care,
the clinic enables families to receive expert medical guidance closer to home
without having to travel across the city for routine consultations. Whether it
is a child&#039;s first vaccination, managing chronic pediatric conditions,
supporting adolescent health, monitoring a high-risk pregnancy or providing
advanced fetal assessments, the clinic offers comprehensive care through every
stage of a family&#039;s healthcare journey.

The
launch reflects Rainbow Children&#039;s Hospital&#039;s continued commitment to expanding
access to high-quality pediatric and women&#039;s healthcare through
neighbourhood-based centres that combine clinical excellence with convenience.
Backed by a multidisciplinary team and standardized clinical protocols, the
clinic ensures that patients receive the same quality of care that Rainbow has
been known for over the past 26 years.

Rainbow
Children&#039;s Hospital has been at the forefront of pediatric healthcare in India,
offering advanced neonatal and pediatric intensive care, quaternary care and
highly specialized pediatric services in a child-friendly environment. Through
BirthRight by Rainbow, the group also provides comprehensive care for women
across every stage of life, from adolescence and fertility to pregnancy,
childbirth and menopause.

Today,
the Rainbow Group operates a network of 24 hospitals and 7 clinics across 9
cities, providing integrated healthcare services in pediatrics, maternity,
gynecology and fertility. The addition of the Kompally clinic further

tertiary and quaternary hospitals.

<title>Matunga–Sion corridor emerges as Mumbai’s next high&#45;growth real estate destination</title>
<link>https://en.newsbolt.in/matungasion-corridor-emerges-as-mumbais-next-high-growth-real-estate-destination</link>
<guid>https://en.newsbolt.in/matungasion-corridor-emerges-as-mumbais-next-high-growth-real-estate-destination</guid>
<description><![CDATA[ Matunga and Sion are part of central Mumbai
and regarded to being among Mumbai’s most established residential
neighbourhoods.  Be it for the educational institutions, strong community
fabric and central location, this micro-market has developed into a mature
residential market. Beyond headline-grabbing real estate projects, the
Matunga-Sion corridor is part of a quiet but significant transformation. It has
emerged into one of the city’s most compelling urban growth stories and is
attracting renewed attention from developers, investors and homebuyers. The
corridor is peaking interest through the promise of redevelopment, modern
housing and long-term value creation.

A large stock of ageing residential
buildings forms the core of this evolution. The older buildings are
increasingly making way for contemporary developments designed to meet the
expectations of a new generation of Matunga-Sion’s urban residents. The
transformation is being further accelerated by a wave of infrastructure
upgrades that are reshaping mobility across Mumbai. Coupled with the corridor’s
strategic position between South Mumbai, the western suburbs and key commercial
districts, new urban infrastructure developments are enhancing accessibility
and reinforcing the area&#039;s appeal. 

Viewed as a desirable destination for both
end-users and long-term investors, industry experts point to a rare combination
of factors that is driving this momentum. Unlike several peripheral growth
corridors that depend largely on future infrastructure projects on paper,
Matunga and Sion benefit from mature social infrastructure, established
residential communities and seamless connectivity to key business districts.
Redevelopment projects taking shape alongside are giving the area&#039;s housing
landscape a new dimension.

According to Suhan Shetty, Founder of
Rubics Group, the corridor offers a combination that is increasingly difficult
to find elsewhere in Mumbai. “Very few areas in Mumbai offer the rare
combination of centrality, connectivity and neighbourhood character that the
Matunga–Sion corridor does today. Along with seamless access to key business
districts, educational institutions, healthcare facilities, lifestyle
destinations and major transport networks, the area has constantly found a
place among the city&#039;s most coveted residential addresses,” he said.

The Matunga and Sion corridor’s appeal
extends beyond connectivity. Matunga, has managed to retain its cultural
identity, tree-lined streets and strong sense of community. These are strong
attributes that are increasingly valued by homebuyers as they seek a balance
between urban convenience and quality of life.

Shetty noted that a combination of heritage
and modernisation had led to the creation of demand for a new generation of
residential developments. “There is a unique balance here that has attracted
demand and opened opportunities for luxury residential developments that place
equal emphasis on design, sustainability and quality of life,” he added.

Another real estate trend that has ushered
the blending of contemporary designs with sustainability and livability that
underpins the corridor&#039;s growth story is redevelopment. Much of the housing
stock across Matunga and Sion is over five decades old, and has opened up a
significant opportunity for urban renewal. Developers are looking at replacing
ageing buildings with contemporary projects featuring larger homes, organised
parking, premium amenities and modern lifestyle offerings.

Chintan Sheth, Chairman and Managing
Director of Sheth Realty, believes this redevelopment cycle is becoming one of
the most powerful catalysts for growth in the corridor. “Among Mumbai&#039;s most
compelling real estate locations today is the Matunga–Sion corridor. It is
driven by a rare convergence of legacy, redevelopment potential and transformative
infrastructure leading to its rapid growth,” he said.

According to Sheth, the established
residential character of Matunga combined with Sion&#039;s ongoing transformation is
creating renewed confidence among both homebuyers and investors. “Much of the
housing stock in the corridor is over five decades old and offers a significant
redevelopment opportunity that is already translating into strong market demand
and renewed confidence in the corridor&#039;s long-term growth prospects,” he said.

The investment case is further strengthened
by the area&#039;s strategic positioning within Mumbai&#039;s transportation network. The
Matunga-Sion corridor sits at the intersection of the Central, Western and
Harbour railway systems, providing residents with direct access to virtually
every part of the city. This rail connectivity is complemented by major road
infrastructure projects that are reshaping travel patterns across the Mumbai
Metropolitan Region.

Recent upgrades such as the Sion-BKC
elevated connector, the Mumbai Trans Harbour Link (Atal Setu), the Coastal Road
and the expanding Metro network have significantly improved accessibility to
major commercial centres including Bandra-Kurla Complex, Lower Parel, Worli,
South Mumbai and Navi Mumbai.

“The corridor&#039;s appeal is further
strengthened by its strategic location connected to the Central, Western and
Harbour railway networks. This advantage is further amplified by transformative
infrastructure projects such as the Sion-BKC elevated road, along with the Atal
Setu, Coastal Road and the expanding Metro network,” Sheth said.

For a large section of homebuyers, the
attraction lies in the ability to access key business districts while avoiding
the premium pricing associated with locations such as Bandra, Lower Parel and
parts of South Mumbai. This positioning has broadened the corridor&#039;s appeal
among professionals, entrepreneurs and families seeking both connectivity and
long-term value.

Rajendra M. Rajan, Founder of TransIndia
Group, believes the strength of the Matunga-Sion belt lies in the combination
of connectivity, infrastructure access and constrained housing supply. “The
Sion–Matunga corridor sits at the intersection of connectivity, infrastructure
upgrades, commercial access and limited housing supply, which come together to create
enormous growth potential,” he said.

Rajan highlighted how recent transport
upgrades have improved access to major employment centres while reinforcing the
area&#039;s role as a strategic gateway. “The Sion–Matunga corridor enjoys a unique
advantage as a central gateway between Mumbai&#039;s two transformational
infrastructure projects, namely the Mumbai Coastal Road and Atal Setu. With
seamless access to South Mumbai, BKC, Navi Mumbai, JNPT and the recently opened
Navi Mumbai International Airport, the corridor is increasingly emerging as a
high-connectivity residential and investment destination,” he said.

Market performance indicators suggest that
buyers and investors are already responding to these advantages. Industry
estimates indicate that residential values across parts of the corridor have
witnessed strong appreciation over recent years, supported by rising rental
demand and limited supply of quality housing stock.

Rajan noted that property values along the
corridor increased by approximately 37 per cent between 2021 and 2025, while
rental growth in locations such as Sion and neighbouring areas reflects growing
occupier demand. He attributes this resilience to the area&#039;s mature
neighbourhood ecosystem and limited availability of developable land, factors
that continue to support long-term capital appreciation.

Beyond infrastructure and real estate
fundamentals, the corridor benefits from a rich social ecosystem that few
emerging markets can replicate. Residents enjoy proximity to leading
educational institutions such as Don Bosco High School, SIES College, Ruia
College and KJ Somaiya College, along with established healthcare facilities,
recreational spaces including Five Gardens and Shivaji Park, and convenient
access to commercial hubs across the city.

This combination of connectivity, social
infrastructure and redevelopment-led transformation is steadily repositioning
Matunga and Sion from established residential neighbourhoods into one of
Mumbai&#039;s most strategically positioned and future-ready micro-markets.

As redevelopment gathers pace and
infrastructure projects continue to simplify accessibility, the Matunga–Sion
corridor appears well placed to emerge as one of Mumbai&#039;s most attractive
locations for end-users seeking an elevated lifestyle and investors looking at
real estate for a sustainable long-term value creation.

<title>iTokri&amp;apos;s 95% women team: building India&amp;apos;s largest handmade platform from Gwalior</title>
<link>https://en.newsbolt.in/itokris-95-women-team-building-indias-largest-handmade-platform-from-gwalior</link>
<guid>https://en.newsbolt.in/itokris-95-women-team-building-indias-largest-handmade-platform-from-gwalior</guid>
<description><![CDATA[  A workforce of
women professionals in Gwalior manages cataloguing, quality control, and
logistics for 100,000+ handmade products from 500+ craft clusters across India

Gwalior, India, June 2026 : iTokri.com runs its core operations through a team that is 95%
women, most from economically disadvantaged backgrounds in Gwalior. They are
not symbolic hires. They run the daily operations of a platform that ships
handmade products from 10,000+ artisan partners to customers across India and
30+ countries.

The team handles cataloguing, product
photography, quality checks, packaging, dispatch, and customer support for over
100,000 products across 150+ craft techniques. With 500+ new products listed
daily, the work demands speed, precision, and real knowledge of materials and
techniques.

What the team actually does

Each product that reaches a customer passes
through multiple hands in the Gwalior operations centre. Quality inspectors check
weave density, colour fastness, and finishing. Cataloguers identify craft
techniques, name materials accurately, and write product descriptions that
distinguish a Maheshwari silk-cotton from a Chanderi. Packaging teams handle
textiles that range from delicate chiffon dupattas to heavy handloom
bedspreads. Customer support staff field questions about fabrics, sizing, and
care, often for crafts most people have never heard of.

This is skilled, detail-intensive work. The
women doing it have built their expertise on the job, learning to identify 150+
craft techniques across clothing, home textiles, jewellery, and accessories.
Many started with no prior formal work experience. Today they manage
departments.

Founded in Gwalior, scaled from Gwalior

iTokri was founded in 2010 by Nitin and Jia
Pamnani. The decision to build operations in Gwalior, rather than relocating to
a metro city, was deliberate. It allowed the company to hire locally and build
a team that has stayed and grown with the company.

&quot;We didn&#039;t set out to build a
women-led team. We hired the best people who showed up, trained hard, and
stayed. That turned out to be almost entirely women from this city,&quot; said
Nitin Pamnani, co-founder, iTokri.com. &quot;Some of them started sorting
packages. Now they run departments. They know more about Indian textiles than
most people in the industry, because they handle thousands of products every
month.&quot;

About iTokri

iTokri.com is India&#039;s largest curated
direct-to-consumer platform for authentic
handmade textiles and handicrafts. Founded in 2010, the platform works with
10,000+ artisan partners across 500+ craft clusters, offering over 100,000
products that span clothing, accessories, home textiles, and decor. iTokri
ships across India and to 30+ countries. Headquarters: Gwalior, Madhya Pradesh.

<guid>https://en.newsbolt.in/sugee-celebrates-completion-of-sugee-marina-bay-with-an-evening-of-gratitude</guid>
<description><![CDATA[  

Mumbai, 23rd June, 2026 : Sugee Group hosted an intimate celebration at the Jio
World Convention Centre, Mumbai, over the weekend of June 2026 to
mark the completion of Sugee Marina Bay, one of their landmark
luxury residential developments, bringing together homeowners, partners,
consultants, financiers, and project teams who played a pivotal role in
transforming a shared vision into reality.

It was more than just a residential
development. The occasion celebrated a journey defined by trust, collaboration,
and unwavering commitment. The event served as a heartfelt expression of
gratitude to the many individuals and organizations whose contributions helped
shape Sugee Marina Bay from concept to completion.

The evening commenced with a mesmerizing
performance by celebrated sitarist Shivang Mishra, setting an
elegant and reflective tone for the celebrations. The acclaimed actor,
television presenter, and author Mandira Bedi was the host for the
evening, for whom the evening carried a special sense of coming full circle,
having also hosted the launch event of Sugee Marina Bay in February 2021.

The showstopper of the evening was a
captivating live performance by renowned singer Padma Shri Sonu Nigam,
whose soulful repertoire created memorable moments for guests and elevated the
celebratory atmosphere.

Among the key moments of the evening was
the unveiling of three BMW i7 cars, a token of gratitude and a mark
of the emotional connection from the construction &amp; execution team at
Sugee. These BMW I7s will be available exclusively for use by the residents of
Sugee Marina Bay. It underscored Sugee&#039;s focus on creating a truly elevated
residential experience, combining luxury living with thoughtfully designed
conveniences for homeowners. 

Speaking on the occasion, Nishant
Deshmukh, Founder and Managing Director, Sugee Group, said, &quot;The
completion of Sugee Marina Bay is a deeply emotional and proud moment for all
of us at Sugee. Every project begins with a vision, but it is the trust of our
homeowners, the commitment of our partners, consultants, contractors, and the
perseverance of our team that transforms that vision into reality. Today, as we
celebrate this milestone, we are not simply handing over homes—we are
celebrating a community and relationships built over the years. Sugee Marina
Bay represents our unwavering commitment to quality, thoughtful design, and
creating exceptional living experiences for our residents.&quot; 

At the heart of the celebration were the
homeowners who placed their faith in the project from its earliest stages.
Their confidence and trust formed the foundation upon which the development was
built and remain among the most valued aspects of the project&#039;s success.

The evening brought together a diverse
community of stakeholders, including homeowners and their families, architects
and consultants who helped shape the vision, construction teams who brought it
to life, bankers and investors who supported the journey, and the facility
management professionals who will now steward the community into its next
chapter.

As homeowners prepare to begin a new
chapter and the community comes to life, this much-awarded iconic development
of Mumbai, Sugee Marina Bay, stands as a lasting symbol of partnership, trust,
and collective achievement—marking not an end, but the beginning of a vibrant
new future for all those connected to it.

About Sugee Group:

Group spans over four decades, evolving into one of Mumbai&#039;s fastest-growing
real estate groups. With a presence in Mumbai, the UAE, and Portugal&#039;s most

<description><![CDATA[ The ‘Best New Brand’ honour in the
Consumer Choice category celebrates Kay Beauty’s effortless rise from a
homegrown success story to an emerging global beauty name

India, June 23 2026: Kay
Beauty, the beauty brand co-founded by Actor and Global Icon Katrina Kaif and
Nykaa, India’s leading beauty and lifestyle company, has been recognized with a
prestigious honour at the CEW (Cosmetic Executive Women) UK Beauty Awards
2026. The recognition marks a significant milestone in Katrina Kaif’s core
vision of building a globally relevant beauty brand rooted in inclusivity and a
deep understanding of diverse beauty needs across the South Asian community. 

The brand was awarded ‘Best New Brand’ in the Consumer
Choice Awards category, held in partnership with Superdrug. CEW is a
professional organization that promotes the British beauty industry, driving
its dynamic growth in the global beauty economy. Founded in 1954, CEW connects
all corners of the beauty industry via its members worldwide. The CEW Beauty
Awards were launched in 2006 to recognize outstanding product innovation and
creativity. Voted for by over 1,000 CEW members in the UK, including industry
professionals and experts in the field of beauty, as well as consumers’ votes,
the CEW Beauty Awards are recognized as one of the most coveted awards in the
industry. 

When Kay Beauty launched with Space NK last year, it
marked a significant moment in the brand&#039;s international growth journey and
Katrina&#039;s vision of taking an India-born beauty brand to a global audience.
With its highly discerning beauty consumer and vibrant South Asian community,
the UK represented an important market for its global expansion. As the first
Indian-founded beauty brand to retail with Space NK, the launch signalled the
increasing demand for South Asian representation on a global stage. Less than a
year later, this recognition reflects the warm reception Kay Beauty has
received from UK consumers.

Since its launch in 2019, Kay Beauty has championed
high-performance beauty infused with skin-loving ingredients and thoughtfully
developed for diverse skin tones, including the needs of South Asian consumers.
The brand&#039;s UK launch with Space NK introduced this approach to a new audience
and has since been met with strong consumer and industry response, culminating
in this latest recognition.

Katrina Kaif, Co-Founder, Kay Beauty said, “When we created Kay Beauty, our vision was to
build a brand that truly understood and celebrated diverse beauty while
delivering products that perform without compromise. From the very beginning,
we wanted to create beauty solutions that were rooted in a deep understanding
of South Asian beauty needs, while being relevant to a global audience. To
receive recognition from both consumers and beauty industry insiders in the UK
within such a short time of launching there is incredibly special. It’s
especially meaningful because it reflects not just the strength of our
products, but the connection we’ve built with our community over the years.
Seeing Kay Beauty resonate with consumers beyond India is a proud moment for
all of us, and we’re grateful to everyone who has been part of this journey.
The CEW UK Beauty Award for the ‘Best New Brand’ inspires us to continue
creating innovative, high-performance beauty that is inclusive, thoughtful and
made with care.”

Adwaita Nayar, Co-Founder &amp; Executive Director of Nykaa
and CEO, House of Nykaa, said “Kay Beauty&#039;s journey has
always been rooted in the love and trust of its consumers. To receive the CEW
UK Consumer Choice Award for Best New Brand, less than a year after our UK
debut, is a remarkable milestone for the brand. As we continue to take Kay
Beauty to new audiences around the world, it is incredibly rewarding to see
consumers in the UK embrace the brand and everything it stands for. This
recognition belongs to every consumer who has been a part of our journey and
believed in our vision from the very beginning.”

The award marks an exciting milestone in Kay Beauty&#039;s
international growth journey and reinforces the brand&#039;s ambition of taking
Katrina Kaif&#039;s vision for inclusive, high-performance beauty to consumers
around the world.

Space NK offline stores and on spacenk.com, and on the Nykaa app, nykaa.com,
and at Nykaa retail stores across India.

<description><![CDATA[  

Bengaluru-based field execution
intelligence startup gOGig has unveiled a technology platform aimed at
improving transparency, accountability, and operational efficiency across
India&#039;s offline marketing landscape. The platform enables brands, agencies, and
campaign managers to monitor field activities in real time and access
verifiable proof of execution for outdoor advertising, below-the-line (BTL)
activations, retail branding initiatives, merchandising programs, surveys,
audits, and other on-ground marketing campaigns.

Despite rapid digital transformation across
the advertising and marketing industry, a significant portion of offline
campaign execution continues to rely on manual reporting, delayed updates,
fragmented communication channels, and limited visibility into field-level
operations. This can make it challenging for brands and agencies to
independently verify campaign deployment, monitor progress across multiple
locations, and measure execution quality at scale.

gOGig&#039;s platform seeks to address these
challenges through a combination of GPS-enabled tracking, geo-tagged images,
timestamped reporting, centralized dashboards, automated workflows, and
AI-assisted verification tools. According to the company, the system allows
stakeholders to track campaign progress as it happens, review execution data
from multiple locations, and access digital records that can help strengthen
compliance, reporting accuracy, and operational oversight.

The launch comes at a time when India&#039;s
advertising industry continues to expand across both digital and traditional
channels. Industry estimates cited by organizations such as MAGNA and the India
Brand Equity Foundation (IBEF) project India&#039;s advertising market to exceed
₹1.3 lakh crore, with traditional media and offline advertising formats
continuing to account for a substantial share of total advertising expenditure.
Outdoor advertising, retail promotions, experiential marketing, and field
activation programs remain important components of brand-building strategies
across sectors including consumer goods, retail, automotive, telecommunications,
financial services, healthcare, education, and e-commerce.

“Digital marketing didn&#039;t win because it
was online it won because it was measurable. We at gOGig are bringing that same
principle to offline advertising, making OOH transparent, verifiable, and
data-driven. We are the Google Analytics of offline marketing, giving brands
real-time visibility into campaign execution and the confidence to invest in
traditional media with measurable outcomes.&quot;

- Founded by Deepak Bansal, Devjit
Neogi, and Devleena Neogi, gOGig (Aivorae Technologies Pvt. Ltd.)

As brands increase investments in physical
consumer engagement, there is growing demand for technologies that provide
greater visibility into campaign execution and measurable outcomes. Industry stakeholders
have increasingly emphasized the need for real-time reporting, standardized
verification mechanisms, and data-driven decision-making to complement
traditional field operations.

According to gOGig, its platform is
designed to support a wide range of offline marketing and field execution use
cases. These include outdoor advertising deployments, in-store branding
initiatives, merchandising audits, market surveys, retail compliance checks,
promoter management programs, product sampling campaigns, event activations,
and franchise or distribution network monitoring. By consolidating field data
into a centralized system, organizations can gain a more comprehensive view of
campaign performance across geographies and operational teams.

The company states that AI-assisted
capabilities built into the platform can help identify duplicate submissions,
flag anomalies in reporting, and improve the accuracy of campaign
documentation. Combined with geo-verification and timestamped records, these
capabilities are intended to strengthen confidence in field reports and reduce
reliance on manual validation processes.

One of the key objectives of the platform
is to create a digital audit trail for field activities. Such records can help
brands and agencies demonstrate campaign execution, evaluate operational
efficiency, and support internal governance requirements. In large-scale
campaigns that span multiple cities and vendors, centralized visibility may
also contribute to faster decision-making and more effective resource
allocation.

The increasing adoption of technology in
offline marketing reflects a broader trend toward data-driven management of
physical operations. While digital advertising platforms have long provided
real-time analytics and performance measurement, many offline marketing
activities have historically lacked comparable levels of visibility. Technology
providers are now working to bridge that gap by introducing tools that enable
more structured monitoring and reporting of on-ground execution.

gOGig positions itself within this evolving
ecosystem by focusing on field execution intelligence and verification. The
company believes that as marketing teams seek greater operational transparency
and accountability, the use of real-time monitoring, automated reporting, and
AI-enabled verification will become increasingly important components of
offline campaign management.

With brands placing greater emphasis on
measurable outcomes, operational efficiency, and governance standards,
platforms that combine field intelligence with digital verification
capabilities are expected to play an increasingly significant role in the
future of offline marketing and on-ground campaign execution in India. ]]></description>

create something rooted, relatable, and emotionally memorable for consumers
across generations.”

<title>TAEKWONDO MASTER SHREEPADA R. RAO SECURES LANDMARK IT APPELLATE TRIBUNAL VICTORY FOR YAKSHIT YUVA FOUNDATION AND SPORTS EDUCATION IN INDIA</title>
<link>https://en.newsbolt.in/taekwondo-master-shreepada-r-rao-secures-landmark-it-appellate-tribunal-victory-for-yakshit-yuva-foundation-and-sports-education-in-india</link>

<description><![CDATA[ Without Formal Training
in Law or Taxation, Taekwondo Master Shreepada Ravi Rao Personally Researched,
Prepared and Argued a Case That has Influenced the Future of Sports Education
and Grassroots Sports Organisations Across India

Belagavi/Panaji, March
2026 : When Taekwondo Master
Shreepada R. Rao appeared before the Income Tax Appellate Tribunal on behalf of
Yakshit Yuva Foundation, few could have imagined that the proceedings would
result in a significant judicial ruling with implications extending far beyond
a single charitable organisation.

The decision, delivered
by the Panaji Bench of the Income Tax Appellate Tribunal
(ITAT), directed the grant of registration under Sections 12AB and 80G of the
Income-tax Act to Yakshit Yuva Foundation. More importantly, the ruling
recognised that organised SPORTS TRAINING does constitute
&quot;education&quot;  and charitable
activity under Indian law.

For India&#039;s sports
ecosystem, grassroots sports organisations, martial arts institutions and
sports education programmes, the judgment has become an important reference
point.

Yet what makes the case
truly remarkable is not only the outcome, but the individual behind it.

Unlike most tax appals,
which are argued by Advocates, Chartered Accountants or specialised tax
practitioners, this case was personally researched, prepared and argued by
Taekwondo Master Shreepada R. Rao, Founder and Chairman of the Board of
Trustees of Yakshit Yuva Foundation.

A sports administrator,
governance consultant and research scholar in Sports Management and Governance,
Taekwondo Master Rao had no formal professional background in law, taxation,
accountancy or courtroom litigation. Nevertheless, he undertook the challenge
of studying the relevant legal provisions, judicial precedents and policy
frameworks after the Foundation&#039;s renwal applications were rejected by the
Income Tax Department.

What followed was an
extraordinary journey from the dojang to the Tribunal.

FROM SPORTS
ADMINISTRATION TO LEGAL RESEARCH

The rejection of
Yakshit Yuva Foundation&#039;s renewal applications presented a challenge that many
grassroots sports organisations face across the country.

The Department deemed
that the activities such as Taekwondo training, self-defence education and
sports development does not qualify as charitable activity under the Income-tax
Act.

For many organisations,
such a setback marks the end of the matter.

For Taekwondo Master
Shreepada R. Rao, however, it became the beginning of a much larger question.

Why cant organised
sports training be recognised as education under Indian law?

The answer was not
merely important for Yakshit Yuva Foundation. It carried implications for
thousands of sports academies, martial arts institutions, self-defence
programmes, athlete development initiatives and community sports organisations
throughout India.

Determined to pursue
the issue, Taekwondo Master Rao immersed himself in legal research despite
having no formal legal training.

He studied judicial
precedents, analysed statutory provisions and examined how courts had
interpreted education within the charitable framework.

Over time, he developed
a legal argument that connected sports education with long-established
principles recognised by Indian courts.

BUILDING THE LEGAL
FRAMEWORK FOR SPORTS EDUCATION

At the heart of the
appeal was a simple but powerful proposition.

Education is not
confined to classrooms, textbooks and examinations.

Organised sports
training teaches discipline, develops skills, builds character, improves
decision-making, strengthens leadership qualities and promotes self-confidence.

Taekwondo Master Rao
argued that these outcomes fall squarely within the broader understanding of
education recognised by Indian jurisprudence.

Drawing upon
established judicial principles, he contended that structured Taekwondo
training is a process of teaching and learning that contributes to the
development of knowledge, skill, mind and character.

The Tribunal carefully
examined these submissions.

In a significant
finding, it accepted the position that systematic sports training aimed at
developing knowledge, skill, mind and character falls within the scope of
education for the purposes of charitable registration under the Income-tax Act.

For many observers,
this aspect of the judgment represents its most important contribution to
Indian sports and charitable jurisprudence.

CONNECTING SPORTS WITH
MODERN EDUCATIONAL POLICY

Another distinctive
feature of the case was its connection to contemporary educational thinking.

Taekwondo Master Rao
highlighted the growing recognition of sports as an important component of
holistic education and personal development.

The proceedings drew
attention to the broader vision reflected in the National Education Policy 2020,
which emphasises experiential learning, life skills, character development and
well-rounded education.

The Tribunal recorded
that the objectives of Yakshit Yuva Foundation were consistent with these
principles.

By doing so, the ruling
reinforced the idea that &quot;sport is not merely a recreational activity but
a meaningful educational tool capable of shaping young lives&quot; .

RECOGNITION OF
TAEKWONDO AND SPORTS DEVELOPMENT

The appeal also
addressed the importance of promoting recognised sports.

Taekwondo Master Rao
argued that activities undertaken for the development and promotion of
Taekwondo should be viewed in light of the sport&#039;s recognised status within the
applicable legal framework.

The Tribunal examined
the relevant provisions and accepted that promotion of such recognised sporting
activities possesses charitable characteristics.

This finding
strengthened the Foundation&#039;s case while also recognising the wider social
value of organised sports development.

EVIDENCE OF IMPACT
BEYOND TRAINING HALL.

The success of the
appeal was not based solely upon legal arguments.

The Tribunal reviewed
extensive evidence relating to the activities of Yakshit Yuva Foundation across
Karnataka and Maharashtra.

Among the programmes
examined was the Foundation&#039;s &quot;Kick &amp; Shout&quot; initiative, through
which the underprivileged girls received self-defence training through over 72
workshops.

The Foundation also
conducted sports education programmes, awareness initiatives and community
outreach activities that reached thousands of students.

These efforts
demonstrated that the organisation&#039;s work extended beyond competitive sport and
encompassed youth development, self-defence education, community empowerment
and social welfare.

A RARE EXAMPLE of
SELF-REPRESENTATION

Perhaps the most extraordinary
aspect of the case is that the legal framework accepted by the Tribunal was
completely drafted, developed and presented by Taekwondo Master Shreepada R.
Rao himself.

The Tribunal records
him as the Authorised Representative of the appellant organisation.

In specialised tax
litigation, such appearances are typically undertaken by trained legal or tax
professionals.

Taekwondo Master Rao&#039;s
achievement therefore extends beyond securing registration for Yakshit Yuva
Foundation.

Without formal training
in law, taxation or litigation, he successfully navigated a complex appellate
process, researched judicial precedents, formulated legal arguments and secured
a ruling that influences future treatment of sports education under Indian
charitable law.

It is this unusual
combination of sports leadership, self-learning, public policy understanding
and legal reasoning that makes the case exceptional.

A Victory Beyond
Yakshit Yuva Foundation

While the immediate
beneficiary of the judgment is Yakshit Yuva Foundation, its implications are
much wider.

Across India, numerous
sports academies, martial arts institutions, grassroots sports programmes,
self-defence initiatives and charitable sports organisations often face
questions concerning their legal status and eligibility for charitable
recognition.

The Tribunal&#039;s
reasoning provides important support for the proposition that organised sports
education serves a genuine educational and public purpose.

For the grassroots
sports ecosystem, the decision represents a significant step towards greater
recognition of sport as a vehicle for education, character-building, youth
development and social advancement.

FROM THE DOJANG TO A
LANDMARK PRECEDENT

For Yakshit Yuva Foundation,
the ruling represents validation of years of work dedicated to sports
education, model sports governance policies and community development.

For India&#039;s sports
sector, it strengthens the status of an organised sport obtaining recognition
as a legitimate educational activity capable of creating lasting social impact.

For Taekwondo Master
Shreepada R. Rao, however, the judgment stands as something even more
distinctive.

It is the story of a
sports administrator and martial arts instructor who entered a field far
removed from his professional background, taught himself the fundamentals
necessary to challenge an adverse legal decision, and ultimately helped shape a
significant judicial precedent affecting thousands of sports organisations
across the country.

The significance of the
case therefore lies not only in the registrations granted to a single
organisation, but also in the remarkable journey of Taekwondo Master Shreepada
R. Rao, whose determination transformed a simple tax dispute into a wider
recognition of sports education within India&#039;s National charitable and
educational framework.

From the dojang to the
Tribunal, it is a journey that demonstrates how conviction, research and
perseverance can sometimes create change far beyond the boundaries of sport
itself. ]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[ From destination-led real estate and experiential hospitality to
scalable food brands, wellness innovation, and consumer lifestyle products, a
new generation of Indian businesses is reshaping traditional industries through
differentiated offerings, stronger consumer insights, and category-first
thinking. This week&#039;s round-up highlights brands that are building momentum by
addressing evolving consumer preferences across sectors.

Trusmile Labs Is Reimagining Oral Care Through Purpose-Built Daily
Routines

 

Consumers are becoming more aware of what goes into their everyday
care products, creating space for brands that combine science, routine design,
and clear formulation logic. Trusmile Labs is responding to this shift with
what it describes as India’s first smart AM/PM oral care system.

 

The brand has introduced separate formulations tailored for morning
and nighttime oral care needs. Morning Energy wakes up your smile with
long-lasting freshness and fluoride-based enamel support, while Night Recovery
is designed for gentle nighttime brushing and recovery-focused care, powered by
probiotics and xylitol.

 

By encouraging consumers to view oral care as a structured daily
wellness routine rather than a one-size-fits-all habit, Trusmile Labs is
helping shape a new conversation within preventive oral health.

 

Dosa Is Taking Over India’s Food Scene, and NGPL Is Quietly Building
the Tech Behind the Country&#039;s Biggest Culinary Brands

 

For three consecutive years, data from food delivery giants Swiggy and
Zomato has confirmed an undeniable shift: the humble dosa has transcended its
breakfast roots to become one of India’s most ordered all-day dishes. As South
Indian cuisine takes absolute control of the national food scene, a silent
operational revolution is happening back-of-house. Bengaluru-based Novartous
Global Private Limited (NGPL) has emerged as the foundational force driving
this scale, quietly engineering the back-end culinary solutions that power the
country&#039;s largest food brands and commercial kitchens.

 

The traditional method of commercial batter preparation is, at its
core, an unpredictable gamble. Kitchens across the country still rely on a
fragile sequence of overnight soaking, manual morning grinding, and volatile
atmospheric fermentation. It is a workflow where a single spike in ambient
temperature or the absence of a lone, skilled batter-maker can cause an entire
menu to collapse before the lunch rush even begins. For major corporations and
rapidly expanding food chains managing tight margins, this lack of
predictability represents a significant operational vulnerability.

 

Recognizing this systemic bottleneck, NGPL has engineered a solution
specifically designed to transition the hospitality industry away from manual
dependency through a revolutionary powder format. By utilizing proprietary
dry-milling technology, they have created a commercial-grade premix where
kitchen staff simply need to add water for the batter to be instantly ready.
This breakthrough completely eliminates the cumbersome, messy, and labor-intensive
process of traditional grinding, while also solving the heavy inventory
wastages typically associated with short-shelf-life frozen batters.

 

Unlike consumer retail products simply repackaged in bulk, this
HoReCa-grade formulation was built from the ground up for the rigors of
high-volume commercial environments, ensuring uniform texture and reliable
fermentation behavior. For restaurant operators, cloud kitchen networks, and
hospitality groups, this shift in food technology addresses long-standing
operational headaches. By integrating this standardized powder, kitchens can
completely eliminate overnight preparation times and remove their reliance on
specialized labor. The day-to-day variables that typically alter food quality
are neutralized, ensuring that regional specialties like Benne Dosa, Thatte
Idli, and Crispy Vada taste identical across different cooking shifts and
changing staff.

 

Ultimately, the true value of this culinary evolution lies in its
capacity for seamless scalability. Whether a company is operating a single
neighborhood outlet or expanding a franchise across fifty cities, the
engineered batter performs consistently across the board. As India&#039;s top food
brands face rising input costs and fierce competition, NGPL provides the hidden
infrastructure that makes national expansion possible.

culinary solutions can be found at novartousglobal.com 

Adorable Bliss Is Democratizing Premium Fragrance Experiences For
Indian Women

 

As India&#039;s beauty and personal care market continues to evolve,
fragrance is emerging as a key category driven by self-expression and
affordable luxury. Adorable Bliss is tapping into this opportunity with a
portfolio of long-lasting Eau De Parfum fragrances created exclusively for
women.

 

Founded by Akanksha Pandey, the brand focuses on delivering premium
scents that combine sophistication, confidence, and everyday wearability
without the premium price tag. Available across leading marketplaces including
Amazon, Myntra, Flipkart, and Blinkit, Adorable Bliss is steadily building a
loyal consumer base among women seeking accessible luxury and quality fragrance
experiences.

 

RollsKing Is Scaling India&#039;s
Fast-Growing QSE and Convenient Forward Economy

 

As urban lifestyles become increasingly fast-paced, convenience-led
food formats are witnessing significant growth across India. Homegrown QSR
chain RollsKing is emerging as a defining force in this shift, anchored by the
Kathi Roll — one of India’s most beloved and timeless street-food staples.
Rooted in centuries of culinary culture, the Kathi Roll is the original one-hand
meal: portable, filling, flavour-packed, and suited to any hour of the day — a
quick breakfast on the commute, a power lunch, a post-gym refuel, or a
late-night bite. RollsKing has built its entire brand around this “A Complete
Meal-in-1” truth, operating across a dual-format model of high-footfall QSR
outlets and agile cloud kitchens designed to capture hyperlocal delivery
demand. Its innovation pipeline — including Khameri Wraps, Crispy Shawarmas,
and Tandoori Tacos - extends the wrap-format playbook while speaking to India’s
evolving, experience-driven palate. In a market crowded with Western format
imports, RollsKing stands apart as a homegrown brand built on authentic Indian
food culture, engineered for the speed of modern urban life. Treading over 3.5L
orders a month, RollsKing proves that anytime meals are something that are here
to stay with the new lifestyle of the Nation.


Taste Of Sikkim Is
Bringing Authentic Himalayan Culinary Culture To Urban India

As regional cuisines continue gaining popularity among Indian diners,
Taste Of Sikkim is helping introduce authentic Himalayan food traditions to a
wider audience through immersive dining experiences.

With outlets in Noida and Gurgaon, the brand has built its identity
around preserving and showcasing the rich culinary heritage of Sikkim and the
Northeast. Beyond serving traditional dishes, Taste Of Sikkim focuses on
creating cultural experiences that allow guests to explore lesser-known
Himalayan flavours, ingredients, and hospitality traditions, helping bridge
regional food cultures with mainstream urban dining.

 

Rolling Fresh Continues To Expand
In India&#039;s Delivery-First Comfort Food Market

Consumer demand for convenient, flavour-forward meals continues to
fuel growth within India&#039;s cloud kitchen ecosystem. Rolling Fresh is
strengthening its footprint across Bengaluru, Hyderabad, and NCR through a
delivery-first model centred around comfort food favourites.

Offering an extensive menu of rolls, momos, sliders, beverages, and
quick-service snacks, the brand caters to younger consumers looking for
affordable indulgence and variety. By combining operational efficiency with
menu innovation, Rolling Fresh is positioning itself within one of the
country&#039;s fastest-growing food delivery segments.

 

Glued Supercharged Is Capitalising On The Growing Demand For
Experience-Led Entertainment

 

As consumers increasingly prioritise experiences over traditional
leisure spending, destination entertainment centres are emerging as a
fast-growing category across urban India. Glued Supercharged is tapping into
this shift through its large-format entertainment venue in Noida, designed to
bring gaming, celebrations, dining, and social experiences together under one
roof.

 

Spread across 32,500 sq. ft., the destination features seven dedicated
Super Zones and over 100 games and experiences catering to families, children,
young adults, and corporate groups. Beyond gaming, the venue has become a
popular choice for birthday celebrations, family outings, team-building activities,
and corporate events, reflecting the growing demand for multi-experience
entertainment destinations.

 

As experiential spending continues to gain momentum among urban
consumers, integrated entertainment hubs such as Glued Supercharged are
benefiting from the increasing preference for social, immersive, and
activity-driven experiences that bring people together beyond conventional
dining and movie outings. 

 

Closing Note

Across sectors ranging from food, wellness, and beauty to hospitality,
entertainment, and real estate, these emerging brands are demonstrating how
category innovation, consumer-centric thinking, and experience-led offerings
are creating fresh growth opportunities in India&#039;s evolving business landscape.
As consumer expectations continue to shift, businesses that successfully blend
convenience, authenticity, lifestyle, and innovation are likely to define the
next phase of growth across industries.

<title>How Vimal Wellness Is Democratising Premium Olive Oil for India</title>
<link>https://en.newsbolt.in/how-vimal-wellness-is-democratising-premium-olive-oil-for-india</link>
<guid>https://en.newsbolt.in/how-vimal-wellness-is-democratising-premium-olive-oil-for-india</guid>
<description><![CDATA[ June 22, 2026 : For
decades, olive oil in India occupied a peculiar position. It was aspirational,
recommended by nutritionists, stocked by modern trade retailers, and admired by
health-conscious consumers. Yet for most Indian households, it remained a niche
purchase rather than a kitchen staple.

The challenge was never
awareness.

The challenge was
accessibility.

Premium imported olive
oils often carried the perception of being products reserved for affluent urban
consumers. High price points, limited availability, and a positioning rooted in
exclusivity kept the category from reaching the broader Indian market.

Vimal Wellness believes
that equation can be rewritten. As part of its broader wellness portfolio,
Vimal Wellness offers a range of Cold-pressed and Gourmet oils designed for
consumers who are increasingly looking for healthier, cleaner, and more
conscious choices in their everyday cooking. Its Extra Virgin Olive Oil sits
within this larger vision: to make premium-quality wellness products more
accessible to Indian households without making them feel out of reach.

Vimal Wellness Extra
Virgin Olive Oil represents a larger shift underway in India&#039;s
food and wellness landscape: the movement of premium nutrition from luxury
shelves to everyday consumption.

The Rise of Conscious
Consumption

India&#039;s wellness
economy has evolved dramatically over the last decade.

Consumers today are
reading labels, comparing ingredients, questioning processing methods, and
actively seeking products that align with long-term health goals. The modern
Indian shopper is no longer purchasing solely on price. Value, transparency,
nutrition, and trust have become equally important considerations.

This shift has created
a new category of demand.

Consumers want premium
products, but they do not want premium products that feel inaccessible.

They want better
ingredients without unnecessary complexity. They want healthier alternatives
without compromising convenience. Most importantly, they want brands that
respect both their aspirations and their budgets.

Vimal Wellness has
positioned its Extra Virgin Olive Oil precisely at this intersection.

Premium Without
Pretension

What makes a product
premium?

Traditionally,
companies have answered that question through scarcity, exclusivity, and
elevated pricing.

The emerging generation
of Indian consumers sees it differently.

Today, premium is
increasingly defined by quality of sourcing, purity of ingredients, nutritional
integrity, and trust in the brand.

For years, the olive
oil category in India carried a pricing perception problem. Several brands
positioned extra virgin olive oil at significantly higher price points,
creating the belief that quality olive oil had to be expensive. Vimal Wellness
is challenging that mindset. The brand’s approach is simple: deliver the same
premium quality consumers expect from extra virgin olive oil, but at a price
point that makes everyday adoption possible.

Made from carefully
selected Spanish Arbequina and Hojiblanca olives, Vimal Wellness Extra Virgin
Olive Oil combines global sourcing standards with a commitment to everyday
wellness. Naturally rich in antioxidants, vitamins, and healthy fats, it
reflects the brand&#039;s vision of bringing premium-quality nutrition to Indian
households at an accessible price point.

The objective is not to
create a product consumers admire from a distance. The objective is to create a
product consumers incorporate into their daily routines.

In many ways, this
represents the future of premiumisation in India: not making products more exclusive,
but making quality more inclusive.



From General Trade to
Quick Commerce

One of the strongest
advantages behind Vimal Wellness is the trust and credibility built by Vimal
Oils over the last three decades. Headquartered in Gujarat, a state known for
its deep-rooted food and edible oil culture. Vimal Oils has emerged as one of
the leading names in India&#039;s edible oils category, with a diverse portfolio
that has made it a familiar presence in Indian households.

Over the years, the
company has built a strong presence across Gujarat and several key markets
through its edible oil portfolio, earning consumer trust through a consistent
focus on quality, nutrition retention, and value. This long-standing expertise
in the oils category has enabled Vimal Oils to understand evolving consumer
preferences and adapt to changing lifestyles.

The launch of Vimal
Wellness is a natural extension of this journey. As Indian consumers
increasingly seek healthier and more conscious food choices, the brand is
leveraging its category expertise to bring premium wellness products to a wider
audience.

Health-conscious
consumers no longer plan wellness purchases weeks in advance. They discover
products online, compare options instantly, and expect delivery within minutes.
The gap between awareness and purchase has never been smaller.

Vimal Wellness
recognized this shift early and built a strong omnichannel presence spanning
traditional retail, modern trade channels, direct-to-consumer channels, and
leading quick commerce platforms. By ensuring availability across Blinkit,
Zepto, and Swiggy Instamart, alongside its wider retail network, the brand has
positioned itself wherever today&#039;s consumers choose to shop, whether through a
neighborhood store or a smartphone screen.

This strategy is
particularly relevant for olive oil.

A consumer researching
healthier cooking alternatives today can move from discovery to purchase in the
same browsing session. Availability becomes a competitive advantage.

In the quick commerce
era, shelf space has become screen space.

Brands that are present
at the moment of intent are the brands that win.

Building a Category,
Not Just a Product

The most successful
consumer brands rarely focus solely on market share.

Instead, they focus on
category expansion.

India&#039;s olive oil
market remains significantly underpenetrated compared to many developed
economies. This creates an opportunity larger than simply competing with
existing players.

The opportunity lies in
converting first-time users.

Every household that
transitions from viewing olive oil as a specialty product to considering it a
regular part of their kitchen represents growth for the entire category.

This is where Vimal
Wellness&#039; positioning becomes strategically important.

By combining premium
sourcing with broader accessibility, the brand is helping reduce the
psychological barrier that often accompanies premium health products.

Consumers are not being
asked to adopt an elite lifestyle.

They are simply being
offered a better choice.

The Future of Wellness
Is Inclusive

Perhaps the most
important lesson from the Vimal Wellness story is that the future of premium
consumption in India may look very different from the past.

Historically, premium
brands created distance.

Tomorrow&#039;s premium
brands will create reach.

They will deliver
better ingredients, superior quality, and stronger health credentials while
remaining relevant to everyday consumers.

Vimal Wellness Extra
Virgin Olive Oil reflects that philosophy. It is a product rooted in premium
quality and global sourcing, yet designed for Indian kitchens, Indian cooking
habits, and Indian consumers.

In a market
increasingly defined by conscious consumption, convenience, and accessibility,
that may prove to be the most powerful premium strategy of all.

<title>Beyond Placements: Why Bengaluru&amp;apos;s New Business School Is Betting On Founders And Family Businesses</title>
<link>https://en.newsbolt.in/beyond-placements-why-bengalurus-new-business-school-is-betting-on-founders-and-family-businesses</link>

<description><![CDATA[ Bengaluru,
22nd June, 2026 : With new programs for Future Founders and
Family Business Successors, Bengaluru-based EIMR Business School is rethinking
what business education can look like.

For
decades, business education in India has largely followed a familiar formula:
classrooms, case studies, examinations, and degrees. Yet as India&#039;s startup
ecosystem grows and family-run enterprises prepare their next generation of
leaders, a larger question is emerging: is traditional management education
evolving fast enough to keep pace with changing ambitions?

Few
cities reflect that shift better than Bengaluru.

Home
to one of India&#039;s largest startup ecosystems and a thriving community of
family-managed businesses, the city has become a hub for founders, innovators,
investors, and next-generation business leaders. It is within this environment
that EIMR Business School has launched its MBA for Future
Founders and MBA for Family Business Successors, two programs
designed around entrepreneurship, execution, mentorship, and real-world
business exposure.

The
institution&#039;s foundation comes from Educesta, an educational
organization founded in 2011 that has contributed to the learning journeys of
more than 4,000 MBA alumni while designing and delivering higher education
programs for leading universities across India. Over the years, that experience
revealed a recurring gap: while management education was producing graduates,
aspiring founders and family business successors needed greater exposure to
real-world decision-making, execution, and business-building.

That
insight ultimately led to the creation of EIMR.

Today,
the institution is coaching more than 700 students through
entrepreneurship-focused learning experiences and has built an ecosystem that
extends well beyond traditional academics. Early outcomes are already visible.
A student venture emerging from EIMR&#039;s undergraduate program has already
secured seed funding within the institution&#039;s first three years, highlighting
the institution&#039;s early focus on entrepreneurship and venture creation.

One
of EIMR&#039;s defining strengths is its emphasis on networks and exposure. Through
its Global Immersion Program, students gain first-hand exposure to
business ecosystems across France, Switzerland, and Germany, interacting with
innovation hubs, startups, global brands, and manufacturing leaders. The
objective is simple: broaden perspective by understanding how businesses are
built, operated, and scaled across international markets.

Another
pillar is Bold Moves, EIMR&#039;s weekly founder interaction platform that brings
entrepreneurs, investors, and industry leaders into direct conversations with
students. Speakers and mentors associated with EIMR engagements have included
Austin Prakesh, Founding Angel and Director of Strategy at Zerodha; Siddharth R
Dungarwal, Founder &amp; CEO, Snitch, Vivek Aithal, Alumni of Y-Combinator
&amp; Founder, MinusX and Dr. Govindraj Laxminarayan Dempo, among other
business leaders and founders.

For
aspiring entrepreneurs, EIMR has also introduced the Soonicorn Fund, a
student venture-support initiative connected to a larger ₹21 crore+ venture
ecosystem designed to help promising ideas access mentorship, incubation,
networks, and funding opportunities.

The
launch of these programs reflects two powerful shifts shaping India&#039;s business
landscape. The first is a growing number of young Indians who want to build
startups rather than simply join them. The second is the rise of
next-generation family business leaders seeking to modernise, scale, and
future-proof enterprises built over decades.

Student
founders Arvind and Diwakar, whose venture ‘Storyphy’ emerged from EIMR&#039;s
entrepreneurial ecosystem and later secured funding, represent that shift. As
the founders describe it, &quot;Storyphy began as an idea to make
AI-storytelling more accessible and meaningful. EIMR gave us the exposure,
mentorship, and confidence to take it beyond the classroom.&quot; Aryan,
another student entrepreneur, is currently building ‘CTRL’, a functional coffee
brand focused on enhancing focus and calm, with plans to serve corporate workplaces
across India.

Speaking
about the vision behind EIMR, founder Deepakk Kummar said:

&quot;India
is entering a defining decade. As initiatives like Startup India and the vision
of Viksit Bharat encourage innovation and value creation, education must evolve
alongside ambition. At EIMR, we believe entrepreneurship is not something that
can be learned only through theory, it must be experienced. Our goal is to help
students build the confidence, capability, and networks required to create
meaningful businesses and contribute to India&#039;s growth story.&quot;

For
Deepakk Kummar, EIMR is the culmination of a journey that began with Educesta,
where years of working closely with students, universities, entrepreneurs, and
business families shaped his vision for a business school centred around
entrepreneurship, innovation, and experiential learning.

At
a time when students are increasingly looking for more than just a degree, EIMR
is reimagining business education for a generation that wants to build
ventures, scale legacy businesses, create impact, and shape industries of their
own.

About
EIMR Business School

EIMR
(Educesta Institute of Management &amp; Research) is a Bengaluru-based business
school built for future founders, family business successors, and emerging
business leaders. Backed by the legacy of Educesta, an education organisation
founded in 2011 with over 4,000 MBA alumni, EIMR combines academic foundations
with entrepreneurship, industry exposure, global immersion, founder mentorship,
venture funding support, and real-world business challenges. With a mission to
create the next generation of business builders and innovators, EIMR is
reimagining management education through experiential learning and
entrepreneurial execution.

The proceedings began at 09:45 a.m. with the ceremonial
inauguration of the CBIC Pavilion, followed by the Inaugural Session. In a
defining moment, Shri Vivek Chaturvedi, Chairman, Central Board of Indirect
Taxes &amp; Customs (CBIC), delivered the welcome address live online, sharing
the Board’s vision for a modern, trust-based and technology-led customs
administration — received by the fraternity as a source of great strength and
inspiration.

The inaugural dais featured an eminent gathering of
dignitaries. These included Shri Yogendra Garg, Member (Customs), CBIC; Shri
Anupam Prakash, Joint Secretary, Customs; Shri Sushil Mansing Khopde, IPS,

“To see this fraternity stand shoulder to shoulder with the
highest offices of government and industry, under one roof and one vision, has
been deeply humbling,” said Mr Paresh Thakkar, Senior Vice President, BCBA.
“What we have built over two editions is not merely an event, but a platform
where the customs broker’s voice is heard, respected and woven into the
national agenda. That is the legacy we intend to carry forward.”

<title>Best 10 Rugs and Carpet Brands in India for Luxury Homes &#45; The Ambiente</title>

<description><![CDATA[ The best rugs and
carpet brand in India is The Ambiente, offering unparalleled bespoke handmade rugs from Bhadohi. Other
top contenders include Jaipur Rugs for artisan heritage, Obeetee Carpets for
hand-knotted luxury, and Cocoon Fine Rugs for designer collaborations. Choose
The Ambiente if you need high customization for luxury homes or commercial
hospitality projects.

Finding the perfect
floor covering transforms an empty room into a curated living space. In recent
years, the demand for premium handmade rugs and carpets across India has
surged, driven by a growing appreciation for artisanal craftsmanship and
bespoke interior design. Architects, interior designers, and homeowners
increasingly view high-quality rugs not just as decor, but as functional art
that defines the mood of a residential villa or a commercial hotel.

Selecting the right carpet
brand requires careful consideration. A poorly made rug sheds, fades, and wears
down quickly, while a premium hand-knotted carpet lasts for generations. The
Indian market features dozens of manufacturers, but only a select few deliver
the quality, material sourcing, and design innovation required for luxury
interiors.

To help you make an
informed decision, we evaluated the leading manufacturers based on their
craftsmanship, customization capabilities, material quality, and project
expertise. Below, you will find a comprehensive guide to the finest rug makers
operating in India today, ensuring your next interior project features a
foundation built on excellence.

How We Selected the Top 10 Rug Brands in India

Evaluating luxury
carpet manufacturers requires strict criteria. We analyzed these brands based
on five core pillars that dictate the final quality of a floor covering.

Craftsmanship
and Heritage

True luxury lies in the
hands of the artisan. Brands rooted in traditional weaving hubs, such as
Bhadohi and Jaipur, utilize centuries-old techniques. Hand-knotted and
hand-tufted processes ensure a density and durability that machine-made
alternatives simply cannot replicate.

Material
Quality

The longevity of a
carpet depends directly on its raw materials. We prioritized brands that use
premium New Zealand wool, pure natural silk, bamboo silk, and durable natural
fibers. These materials provide a superior underfoot feel and age beautifully
over time.

Customization
Capabilities

Luxury interior design
demands flexibility. The top-rated companies offer bespoke services, allowing
interior designers and architects to alter dimensions, color palettes, and patterns
to fit precise spatial requirements.

Hospitality
and Commercial Experience

Commercial spaces
require floor coverings that withstand heavy foot traffic while maintaining an
upscale aesthetic. Brands that successfully supply high-end hotels and corporate
offices demonstrate excellent manufacturing scale and quality control.

Customer
Reviews and Industry Reputation

A brand’s standing
among top-tier architects, home stylists, and interior designers serves as a
reliable indicator of quality. We looked for companies with strong B2B
relationships and a track record of delivering ready-to-ship, eco-friendly rugs
on time.

Luxury Handmade Rugs vs Machine-Made Carpets

Understanding the
structural differences between handmade luxury rugs and machine-made carpets is
essential for making a sound investment.

Durability Comparison

Handmade rugs,
particularly hand-knotted varieties from brands like The Ambiente, feature
individual knots tied to the warp threads. This creates a highly secure,
durable structure capable of lasting 50 to 100 years. Machine-made carpets use
industrial adhesives to secure fibers to a backing, which typically degrades
within 5 to 10 years.

Design Flexibility

A handmade rug offers
limitless design flexibility. Artisans can adjust dye lots, knot density, and
pile height. Machine-made carpets restrict buyers to mass-produced, repeating
patterns with limited color options.

Sustainability

Premium brands utilize
natural, biodegradable materials like wool, cotton, and silk. Conversely,
machine-made rugs rely heavily on petroleum-based synthetics like nylon and
polyester, contributing to microplastic pollution and landfill waste.

Long-Term Value

While machine-made
carpets depreciate instantly, a high-quality hand-knotted rug retains its
value. Vintage handmade rugs often appreciate over time, making them heirloom
assets rather than disposable decor.

How to Choose the Best Rug Brand in India

Selecting the ideal
brand requires aligning your specific needs with a manufacturer&#039;s core
strengths.

Consider Project Type

●     
Residential:
For living rooms and bedrooms, prioritize comfort and aesthetics. Brands like
The Ambiente and Cocoon Fine Rugs excel here.

●     
Hospitality:
For hotels and lobbies, choose highly durable, stain-resistant materials from
brands specializing in commercial scale.

●     
Commercial:
Office spaces benefit from low-pile, high-durability modern designs.

Consider Material

●     
Wool: Choose wool for
high-traffic areas; it is naturally stain-resistant, durable, and retains color
beautifully.

●     
Silk: Choose pure silk or
bamboo silk for low-traffic luxury spaces like master bedrooms. It provides an
unmatched sheen and softness.

●     
Viscose:
Opt for viscose as an affordable silk alternative, though it requires careful
maintenance and avoids moisture.

●     
Cotton:
Ideal for casual spaces, flatweaves, and summer rugs.

Consider Customization Requirements

If your project
features unusual room dimensions or requires a highly specific color match to
existing upholstery, select a brand like The Ambiente that offers end-to-end
bespoke services, from digital rendering to final weaving.

Consider Budget and ROI

Assess whether you are
purchasing a temporary decor item or a generational investment. Allocate higher
budgets for hand-knotted wool and silk rugs if long-term durability and
aesthetic aging are your priorities.

Why Luxury Projects Prefer Handmade Rugs

Top-tier architects and
interior designers consistently specify handmade rugs over manufactured
alternatives.

Superior Craftsmanship

The human element in a
handmade rug introduces subtle variations—known as abrash in the dyeing
process—that give the piece character and depth. Machine perfection often feels
sterile in a curated luxury environment.

Unique Designs

Because each piece
takes months to weave, no two handmade rugs are entirely identical. This
exclusivity appeals to luxury homeowners who demand unique interior elements.

Long-Term
Durability

The structural
integrity of a hand-knotted carpet ensures it survives decades of use without
the backing deteriorating or the pile matting down permanently.

Sustainability
Benefits

Handmade rug production
relies on human energy rather than fossil fuels. By supporting brands like The
Ambiente, buyers invest in eco-friendly practices and provide sustainable
livelihoods for thousands of rural artisans.

<title>Never Have to Miss Them Again: Inside the AI Startup Building the World&amp;apos;s First Immortal, Emotional Technology for Love and Connection</title>
<link>https://en.newsbolt.in/never-have-to-miss-them-again-inside-the-ai-startup-building-the-worlds-first-immortal-emotional-technology-for-love-and-connection</link>

<description><![CDATA[ In a small but growing corner of the
artificial intelligence industry, a category of products is emerging with no
real precedent: physical devices that let people interact with AI-generated
avatars of loved ones, whether those individuals live thousands of miles away
or are no longer alive. At the centre of this category is iAVATARS, a startup
registered in Michigan, United States, that has spent the last two years
quietly building what it calls &quot;the world&#039;s first AI human avatar
device,&quot; and what the company describes as the first AI smart and
healthcare tech gadget of its kind anywhere in the world. iAVATARS is founded
and led by Indo-Canadian entrepreneur Dr Krishna.

The
company&#039;s emergence comes at a moment when India&#039;s AI startup ecosystem is
experiencing unprecedented momentum. According to industry estimates, India is
now home to thousands of AI-focused startups, with investment in the sector
accelerating sharply over the past three years. Yet within this crowded
landscape, most ventures cluster around a handful of familiar categories:
enterprise productivity tools, generative content platforms, customer service
automation, and large language model applications. iAVATARS has taken a
markedly different path, one that combines hardware, proprietary AI software,
and an emotionally driven use case that few companies have been willing to
address: human grief, distance, and memory.

&quot;Most
AI companies are solving for efficiency,&quot; said Dr Krishna, the company&#039;s
founder. &quot;We set out to solve for something that technology has never
really tried to solve: the feeling of absence.&quot; For families separated by
distance, and for those who have lost someone they love, Dr Krishna says
iAVATARS is built around a simple promise: the ability to talk to them again,
not as a recording, but as a responsive, living presence that offers emotional
support and comfort on demand. As of 2026, the company believes it remains the
only solution of its kind built specifically around that promise.

That
ambition is now backed by intellectual property protection across five
jurisdictions. iAVATARS holds a Patent Cooperation Treaty (PCT) application
pending simultaneously in the United States, the European Union, India,
Australia, and New Zealand, a relatively rare achievement for an early-stage
startup, and one that signals both the novelty of the underlying technology and
the seriousness with which the company is approaching global expansion. PCT
filings of this breadth are typically associated with companies several funding
rounds ahead of where iAVATARS currently sits, and the company says the
decision to file early was deliberate.

&quot;When
you build something that has never existed before, protecting it becomes as
important as building it,&quot; Dr Krishna said. &quot;We did not want to spend
three years validating a product category only to have it replicated by a
larger company with more capital.&quot;

At the core
of iAVATARS&#039; offering is iSoul 1.0, the company&#039;s proprietary AI engine, which
powers a small lineup of hardware devices: the iA VLA Basic and iA VLA Pro,
both tabletop displays designed for everyday family use. Unlike most consumer
AI products on the market, iAVATARS&#039; devices are designed to function fully
offline, with all personal data, including voice recordings, video, and
interaction history, stored locally on the device rather than in the cloud. The
company positions this as both a privacy safeguard and a practical necessity,
given that many of its target users are elderly individuals in regions with
inconsistent internet connectivity.

The business
case driving iAVATARS rests on a demographic reality that is reshaping
economies across the world, India included. The country is home to an estimated
140 million citizens aged 60 and above, a number projected to more than double
by 2050. Simultaneously, India&#039;s diaspora, now estimated at over 18 million
people living abroad and part of a broader global figure of roughly 270 million
people living away from their country of origin, has created a structural gap
between ageing parents and adult children separated by geography. Add to this a
broader global trend: the World Health Organisation has flagged loneliness as a
significant public health concern, with research linking chronic loneliness in
older adults to accelerated cognitive decline. iAVATARS is positioning itself
directly at the intersection of these trends, betting that the AI companion
device market, projected by several industry analysts to reach roughly USD 12
billion by 2030, still lacks a category-defining hardware player.

&quot;There
is no shortage of software assistants,&quot; Dr Krishna said. &quot;What does
not exist yet is a dedicated physical device built specifically around
presence, memory, and emotional continuity. That is the gap we are
filling.&quot;

For now,
iAVATARS remains a small company by most conventional startup metrics. Its team
is lean, its devices are not yet mass-distributed, and its primary visibility
has come through grassroots outreach rather than large-scale marketing. The
company has, for instance, been visiting old-age homes across Mumbai this
month, not to sell its product but to engage directly with elderly residents,
document their stories, and lay the groundwork for future demonstrations of its
technology in institutional care settings.

This
ground-level approach is, according to Dr Krishna, intentional rather than
incidental. &quot;You cannot understand whether something genuinely helps an
elderly person feel less alone by running a lab demo,&quot; he said. &quot;You
have to sit with them, listen to them, and see how they respond when it is
real.&quot; Rather than launching through traditional e-commerce or large
retail partnerships, the company is exploring institutional channels first:
senior living communities, hospice care networks, and potential tie-ups with
NRI-focused service providers who already work with families managing care for
ageing parents from abroad.

India&#039;s
broader AI investment climate offers both an opportunity and a challenge for a
company positioned the way iAVATARS is. Capital flowing into Indian AI startups
has grown substantially over the past few years, with several funds explicitly
seeking differentiated, IP-backed ventures rather than incremental software
wrappers built atop existing large language models. iAVATARS&#039; PCT filing across
five jurisdictions is likely to be a meaningful talking point in future
fundraising conversations, given how few seed-stage companies secure such broad
patent coverage. At the same time, hardware-driven startups generally face
longer development cycles and higher capital requirements than pure software
companies, a reality that has made many Indian investors cautious about
hardware bets in the past.

Dr Krishna
acknowledges the trade-off but argues that the category iAVATARS justifies the
longer build cycle. &quot;If this were easy to build quickly, someone would
have built it already,&quot; he said. &quot;The fact that nobody has combined
offline AI, personalised avatars, and dedicated hardware into one coherent
product is precisely the opportunity. But it does mean we have had to be
patient and disciplined about how we spend capital.&quot;

That
discipline is visible in the company&#039;s current operating structure. Rather than
scaling headcount aggressively, iAVATARS has kept its core team small and
cross-functional, with each senior member covering a wide remit. Swatika&#039;s role
spans strategic partnerships and broader business operations, reflecting the
realities of an early-stage team where rigid departmental boundaries are a
luxury it cannot yet afford. Sundeep has driven much of the company&#039;s
go-to-market thinking, including early conversations with potential
institutional partners, while Rohit has focused on building the operational
systems needed to track device deployment, customer feedback, and after-sales
support ahead of a wider release. Bhargava&#039;s work on product strategy has
involved frequent direct interaction with prospective users, including elderly
residents and family members engaged with during the company&#039;s outreach visits,
feeding that input back into product design decisions.

On the
technical side, Arjit, who serves as Head of Technical and R&amp;D Lead, has
overseen the development of iSoul 1.0 and the broader engineering roadmap
behind the company&#039;s device lineup, an effort spanning AI model development,
hardware integration, and the offline-first architecture that distinguishes
iAVATARS from cloud-dependent competitors. Building an avatar system that can
render a recognisable, emotionally resonant likeness of a real person, while
keeping all processing local to the device, has required Arjit&#039;s team to balance
model size, processing efficiency, and visual fidelity in ways that
cloud-dependent rivals do not need to consider.

For Dr
Krishna, though, the calculus remains rooted less in market timing than in a
personal conviction that has driven the company since its earliest days.
&quot;I am not trying to build a faster way to chat with an AI,&quot; he said.
&quot;I am trying to build a way for someone to feel less alone, even briefly,
even imperfectly. If we get the business right, that is a bonus. But the reason
this company exists is the feeling, not the forecast.&quot;

<title>Commission Mukt Bharat Movement Gains Nationwide Momentum, Amplifying Voices of Lacs of Workers, Entrepreneurs and Small Businesses</title>

<description><![CDATA[  

New Delhi, June 2026 : As concerns around rising commissions and shrinking margins
continue to affect workers and businesses across India, the Commission Mukt
Bharat movement is witnessing growing public participation from delivery
partners, drivers, freelancers, self-employed professionals, small business
owners, and entrepreneurs seeking greater transparency and fairness in the
digital economy.

The movement has attracted
significant engagement from people across the country, reflecting growing
concerns over commission-driven business models that many believe are impacting
the sustainability of small enterprises and individual livelihoods. Industry
observers note that lacs of small shops and local businesses have struggled to
remain competitive in an increasingly commission-dependent marketplace, leading
to financial pressure on business owners as well as service providers operating
on digital platforms.

Commission Mukt Bharat has
positioned itself as a public-awareness and grievance-redressal platform where
individuals can share their experiences related to excessive commission
deductions, unfair earning structures, payment disputes, and other challenges
affecting their income. Through its digital platform, citizens can register
grievances, highlight challenges faced in their professions or businesses, and
seek guidance and possible solutions from the movement’s support network.

The initiative has emerged as a
forum for discussions around fair income, worker rights, earning transparency,
entrepreneurship, and financial empowerment. By bringing together voices from
different sectors of the economy, the movement seeks to encourage constructive
dialogue on creating a more balanced ecosystem for workers, service providers,
and small businesses.

As India’s gig economy and digital
commerce sectors continue to expand, conversations around sustainable growth,
equitable opportunities, and income protection have become increasingly
relevant. Advocates associated with the movement believe that long-term
economic growth must also address the concerns of those who contribute directly
to the functioning of these ecosystems.

“Millions of workers,
entrepreneurs, delivery partners, drivers, freelancers, and business owners
across the country are affected by commission structures in one way or another.
Our objective is to create awareness, provide a platform where people can raise
their concerns, and work towards practical solutions that support fair
earnings, business sustainability, and economic empowerment,” said Jigar,
associated with the Commission Mukt Bharat movement.

With growing public participation,
the movement plans to further strengthen its outreach efforts through awareness
campaigns, educational initiatives, and community engagement programmes focused
on financial justice, income transparency, and economic empowerment.

The initiative’s continued
expansion highlights the increasing importance of conversations around fair
business practices, sustainable entrepreneurship, and the future of work in
India’s rapidly evolving digital economy.

<title>What Makes Oracle International Language Institute Stand Out Among Language Institutes in Delhi?</title>
<link>https://en.newsbolt.in/what-makes-oracle-international-language-institute-stand-out-among-language-institutes-in-delhi</link>
<guid>https://en.newsbolt.in/what-makes-oracle-international-language-institute-stand-out-among-language-institutes-in-delhi</guid>
<description><![CDATA[ In today&#039;s competitive world,
academic qualifications alone are often not enough to stand out. Students,
working professionals, and study abroad aspirants are increasingly seeking
skills that improve communication, boost employability, and open global opportunities.
Among these skills, learning a foreign language has become one of the most
valuable investments a person can make.

From German and French to Spanish,
Japanese, Korean, Chinese, and Arabic, international language courses are
gaining popularity across India. As demand continues to grow, students are
actively searching for a trusted German Institute in Delhi, French Institute in
Delhi, or Spanish Institute in Delhi to begin their language-learning journey.

Among the many options available, Oracle International Language Institute has emerged as a preferred choice
for students seeking practical language training, career guidance, confidence
building, and study abroad preparation.

With centers in Connaught
Place (CP) and GTB Nagar, Oracle International Language Institute
serves students across Delhi NCR, helping learners develop
communication skills that support academic, professional, and international
goals.

 

Why Should Students Learn International
Languages?

International languages help
students improve communication skills, increase employability, prepare for
study abroad opportunities, and access global careers. In today&#039;s competitive
job market, language skills often provide an advantage beyond academic qualifications.

According to trainers
at Oracle International Language Institute, students are increasingly
viewing language learning as a career investment rather than simply an academic
skill.

Students who learn international
languages often develop:

 

•  Better communication skills

•  Greater confidence

•  Cross-cultural understanding








•  Improved career prospects

 

•  Stronger study abroad readiness

 

At Oracle International
Language Institute, students receive practical language training focused on
real-life communication, speaking confidence, and career-oriented learning
rather than only textbook knowledge.

 

Growing Demand for German, French, Spanish, and Other Languages

Language experts at Oracle International Language Institute have observed significant growth
in demand for German, French, Spanish, Japanese, and IELTS programs among
students preparing for global careers and international education
opportunities.

 

Why Learn German?

Germany is one of the world&#039;s
strongest economies and offers opportunities in engineering, technology,
healthcare, manufacturing, and research.

Students who enroll in a German
Language Course often do so because of:

 

•  Higher education opportunities in Germany

 

•  International career prospects

 

•  Global corporate exposure

 

•  Engineering and technology careers

<title>Young Entrepreneur Gungun Upadhyay Brews an Indian Coffee Revolution with Gun² Coffee Nationwide</title>
<link>https://en.newsbolt.in/young-entrepreneur-gungun-upadhyay-brews-an-indian-coffee-revolution-with-gun%C2%B2-coffee-nationwide</link>
<guid>https://en.newsbolt.in/young-entrepreneur-gungun-upadhyay-brews-an-indian-coffee-revolution-with-gun%C2%B2-coffee-nationwide</guid>
<description><![CDATA[ In India&#039;s rapidly
evolving coffee industry, multinational brands have long enjoyed a strong
foothold. From premium café chains to supermarket shelves, global names have
largely shaped consumer preferences and market trends. Yet, amid this
competitive landscape, a young entrepreneur from Jodhpur, Rajasthan, is
challenging the status quo with a bold vision—to build a proudly Indian coffee
brand that can stand shoulder-to-shoulder with international players.

At just 22 years old,
Gungun Upadhyay, founder of Gun² Coffee, represents a new generation of Indian
entrepreneurs who are redefining ambition, resilience, and the meaning of
&quot;Made in India.&quot;

Choosing
Entrepreneurship Over Convention

While many young
graduates focus on securing jobs and building careers within established
organizations, Gungun chose a different path. She set out not to seek
opportunities but to create them.

Entering the coffee
sector was far from an easy decision. The industry is highly competitive, with
well-funded international brands commanding significant market share and
consumer recognition. Yet Gungun believed that a strong commitment to quality,
authenticity, and customer trust could help a homegrown brand carve out its own
identity.

That belief became the
foundation of Gun² Coffee, a brand that has rapidly expanded its footprint and,
according to company information, reached a network of more than 2100+
retailers across India.

More Than Coffee: A
Vision for Indian Brands

For Gungun, Gun² Coffee
is not merely a business venture. It is part of a larger vision—one that
reflects the aspirations of a new India increasingly confident in its ability
to create world-class brands.

At a time when
consumers are surrounded by foreign labels and international marketing
campaigns, she is working to prove that Indian brands can compete on quality,
innovation, and customer experience. Her mission is to encourage consumers to
place the same trust in homegrown products that they traditionally reserve for
global names.

In many ways, Gun²
Coffee represents more than a beverage company; it symbolizes the growing
confidence of young Indian entrepreneurs who believe that the future of
consumer brands can be built within India, by Indians, for the world.

Turning Challenges into
Strength

Every entrepreneurial journey
comes with setbacks, and Gungun&#039;s story is no exception. What sets her apart is
her ability to transform adversity into motivation.

She firmly believes
that sustainable success is never achieved overnight. Every successful brand is
built through countless hours of effort, difficult decisions, continuous
learning, and the courage to keep moving forward despite obstacles.

This mindset has become
one of the defining characteristics of her entrepreneurial journey and a source
of inspiration for many young people looking to pursue their own ambitions.

Recognition at the
National Level

Gungun&#039;s efforts have
not gone unnoticed. Her work and entrepreneurial spirit have drawn appreciation
beyond the business community.

Union Agriculture and
Farmers Welfare Minister Shivraj Singh Chouhan has acknowledged her dedication
and entrepreneurial initiative. She has also been associated with projects
aimed at encouraging innovation and enterprise, reflecting the growing
recognition of young founders who are contributing to India&#039;s vision of
self-reliance and economic growth.

Such recognition is
particularly significant for a young entrepreneur, as it highlights the broader
impact of her work beyond commercial success.

A New Face of Women-Led
Entrepreneurship

India&#039;s startup
ecosystem has witnessed remarkable growth over the past decade, yet women
entrepreneurs remain underrepresented in many sectors. Gungun Upadhyay&#039;s
journey stands as a powerful example of what is possible when vision,
determination, and hard work come together.

She is emerging as a
role model for young women who aspire to build businesses, lead organizations,
and create their own identities in competitive industries.

Her story demonstrates
that age is not a barrier to achievement. What matters is clarity of purpose,
willingness to learn, and the courage to take risks.

The Journey Has Only
Begun

Despite her
achievements, Gungun views her current success not as a destination but as the
beginning of a much larger journey.

Her ambition is to
establish Gun² Coffee as one of India&#039;s most respected homegrown coffee brands
and eventually expand its presence on a larger national and international
stage.

In an era where
consumers increasingly value authenticity, quality, and local innovation, her
vision aligns perfectly with the changing aspirations of modern India.

At just 22, while many
are still discovering their professional path, Gungun Upadhyay is building a
brand, creating opportunities, and contributing to a larger movement that
celebrates Indian entrepreneurship.

Her story is a reminder
that great brands are not born in big cities alone—they are built through bold
ideas, relentless effort, and an unwavering belief in what is possible.

And perhaps that is the
true essence of Gun² Coffee: not merely a cup of coffee, but a symbol of
youthful ambition, resilience, and the rising confidence of a new generation of
Indian entrepreneurs.

<title>12 Spots on This Cruise Ship That Will Fill Your Camera Roll Before You Even Reach the First Port</title>
<link>https://en.newsbolt.in/12-spots-on-this-cruise-ship-that-will-fill-your-camera-roll-before-you-even-reach-the-first-port</link>
<guid>https://en.newsbolt.in/12-spots-on-this-cruise-ship-that-will-fill-your-camera-roll-before-you-even-reach-the-first-port</guid>
<description><![CDATA[ There
are selfies. There are great selfies. And then there are cruise selfies
- where the backdrop changes every few hours, the light behaves differently
than it does on land, and the setting is so good your friends assume you hired
a photographer.

Norwegian
Luna, one of Norwegian Cruise Line’s
newest ships at sea, is proof that some vacations are built differently. The
backdrop is constantly shifting. Sunrise over open water looks nothing like
noon, noon nothing like golden hour, and golden hour nothing like a night on a
glowing deck.  You’ll never capture the
same moment twice.

Here
are 12 spots on board worth every frame in your camera roll.

1.
The Hull - Before You Even Step Aboard

Some
ships are forgettable on the outside. This one isn&#039;t. Norwegian Luna&#039;s hull
carries ‘La Luna’ - a sweeping mural by New York-based street artist ELLE, a
bold, colourful exploration of humanity&#039;s connection to the moon and celestial
forces. Spanning nearly a thousand feet, it’s a statement in itself. Get the
shot from the dock before you board. It sets the tone for everything that
follows.

2.
Oceanwalk Glass Bridge - For the &quot;I&#039;m Walking on Water&quot; Selfie

Not
a morning person? You might just want to become one for this. Oceanwalk is a
glass-bottomed, glass-walled bridge that extends over the open ocean - sea
below your feet, sky above, nothing else in the frame. This is the best place
on the ship for that one slow, no-crowd selfie, in the early hours when the
light is soft and the deck is quiet. The drama is entirely built in. No filter
required.

3.
The Penrose Atrium - The Indoor Shot That Isn’t Indoor

Step
inside and look up. The three-story glass-walled atrium is anchored by a
three-tonne crystal chandelier inspired by constellations - the kind of centrepiece
that makes every photo look intentional. Natural light shifts throughout the
day. Morning here feels different from evening, but both are worth the shot.
There&#039;s also a professional photography studio set up in the evenings if you
want to give away the camera entirely.

4.
Infinity Beach – Golden Hour No Compromise

Two
infinity pools sit at either side of the ship, designed to visually merge with
the horizon. You know the shot - water appearing to spill into the ocean
beyond. It&#039;s a perspective you cannot imitate on land. Both, sunrise and sunset
lovers win here. Pick your hour, find your angle, and let the setting do the
work.

5.
Ocean Boulevard – The Promenade That Goes Everywhere

Ocean
Boulevard wraps 360 degrees around the ship, so the view is always evolving.
Morning light on one side, the wake of the ship from the other, noon feels
completely different from dusk. Along the way is The Concourse - an outdoor
sculpture garden with installations designed specifically for photo moments,
with metal artworks by Alexander Krivosheiw and David Harber. It&#039;s a selfie
spot that doesn&#039;t announce itself as one, which makes it even better.

6.
Vibe Beach Club - When Even Your Candids Look Composed

The
adults-only Vibe Beach Club is the kind of space that captures the way a good
vacation feels. Think Plush loungers, infinity hot tubs and uninterrupted ocean
viewsIt&#039;s the sort of setting where you&#039;re not trying to chase the perfect shot
- it happens naturally.

7.
The Aqua Slidecoaster - Chaos, But Make It Content

Hear
us out. The Aqua Slidecoaster is a hybrid waterslide and roller coaster that
wraps around the ship&#039;s funnel in two brightly coloured tubes, launching riders
through uphill sections, drops, and twists across three decks. The visual -
neon tracks against the open sky and the expression on someone&#039;s face
mid-launch is genuinely great content. Get the POV in a waterproof case or
stand on the deck and capture the moment. Either way, it makes the camera roll.

8.
The Drop - Ten Stories of Pure Expression

If
the Slidecoaster is chaos, The Drop is commitment. A ten-story free-fall dry
slide - one of the only ones at sea, where the only way is straight down. The
photo opportunity here is all about the expression.

9.
Glow Court - The Night Shift Selfie

By
day, it is a high-tech LED sports floor. By night, it transforms into something
that looks like it belongs in a music video - colour underfoot, the deck lit
up, the ocean dark beyond the rails. It&#039;s the spot for the photo that says “the
night was good” without needing a caption. This is what low-light phone
photography was made for.

10.
Indulge Food Hall - Where the Food Is the Story

Open-air,
set on Ocean Boulevard, and running ten global cuisine stations, Indulge Food
Hall is made for food content. Whether is a bowl of noodles with the ocean
behind it or a dessert plated against the sky, the backdrop changes with every
meal. -Bbreakfast, lunch or al fresco dinner - if you’re a food content
creator, this is your part of the ship.

11.
The Haven - No Crowds, No Compromises

For
the selfie that requires nothing additional, The Haven is the answer. This
private enclave within the ship has its own sun decks, dedicated elevators, and
a slower pace.  No crowds, unobstructed
views and understated elegane. It feels less “I&#039;m on a cruise”,
more “I live here now”.

12.
At Every Port - The &quot;Let&#039;s Take a Selfie&quot; Shore Excursion

The
camera roll doesn’t stop when the ship docks. Across many of Norwegian Cruise
Line’s destinations - from the colourful plazas of Cozumel to the blue-domed
churches of Santorini to the iconic landmarks of Rome, a dedicated *Let’s Take
a Selfie* shore excursion takes guests to the most photogenic spots in each
port, with a selfie tutor to help with angles, lighting and composition. It’s
sightseeing along with a masterclass in photography. And when you return to the
ship you have captured an entire destination, not just visit it.

June
21 is National Selfie Day. Currently, Norwegian Luna is sailing seven-day
itineraries to the Caribbean from Miami.

Luna is a state-of-the-art, 3,565-passenger cruise

The

being shaped by GenZ consumers who are more informed, trend-conscious, and have
made beauty into a daily ritual. At the same time, we are seeing strong
momentum from shoppers across Bharat, where demand is expanding well beyond
traditional categories into premium, specialised, and globally inspired
products. This evolution is creating new opportunities for brands to engage
consumers in more meaningful ways and making discovery an increasingly
important part of the shopping journey. Flipkart&#039;s Glam Up Fest reflects these
shifts, bringing together brands, creators, and consumers on a single platform
to celebrate emerging trends and spotlight innovations shaping the future of
beauty in India.&quot;

<title>The Real Cost Gap Between AI Voice Agents and Human Telecallers: VoxTurn Crunches the Numbers</title>
<link>https://en.newsbolt.in/the-real-cost-gap-between-ai-voice-agents-and-human-telecallers-voxturn-crunches-the-numbers</link>
<guid>https://en.newsbolt.in/the-real-cost-gap-between-ai-voice-agents-and-human-telecallers-voxturn-crunches-the-numbers</guid>
<description><![CDATA[ While India&#039;s technology conversation has
spent the last two years on sovereign LLMs, benchmark comparisons, and AI
summits, VoxTurn has been doing something quieter: deploying voice AI in
production for Indian enterprises, at scale, in regional languages, on outbound
and inbound phone operations that run around the clock.

The company today is putting its experience
on record. After two-plus years of building voice AI systems for clients across
real estate, healthcare, and consumer businesses, VoxTurn is making a direct
claim: for high-volume phone operations in India, AI voice agents are not just
comparable in cost to human telecallers. When you do the full math, they are
often cheaper.

The problem, VoxTurn says, is that most enterprises are not
doing the full math.

The typical procurement comparison sets an
AI vendor&#039;s per-minute rate against a telecaller&#039;s monthly salary. On the
surface, this makes the human look cheaper. But this comparison measures two
different things. A monthly salary does not tell you the cost of a productive
talk-minute once you load in what a contact centre floor actually costs to run.

Across Indian enterprise operations, a
standard outbound telecaller logs roughly 90 to 120 minutes of actual talk time
per day, after accounting for no-pickups, call setup, wrap-up, breaks, and the
recovery time that follows a run of rejections. At a base salary of Rs 15,000 a
month across 24 working days, and productive talk-time of 120 minutes a day,
base cost works out to approximately Rs 5.20 per productive minute, before a
single additional cost is applied.

By the time you add PF, ESI, and gratuity
at 15% to 20% on base, outbound telephony at Rs 0.30 to Rs 0.80 per minute,
seat and infrastructure costs, team lead and QA overhead, and the cost of
attrition that runs at 30% to 60% annually across most Indian contact centre
floors, the picture changes. Based on conversations with contact centre
operators and VoxTurn&#039;s own deployment
data, the fully loaded cost of a productive talk-minute runs Rs 6 to Rs 10 in
Tier-2 cities, and Rs 12 to Rs 17 in metro operations. AI voice agents on a
comparable deployment run at Rs 2 to Rs 6 per minute.

“We didn’t build VoxTurn to replace
salespeople. We built it because we kept seeing talented sales professionals
spend their best hours on tasks that had little to do with selling. Qualifying
leads, chasing callbacks, updating CRMs, these activities can consume the
majority of a salesperson’s day, while the conversations they were actually
hired, take a back seat. The moment you take qualification off their plate, you
give them back the part of the job that drives results: meaningful customer
conversations. That’s the fundamental idea behind VoxTurn,” says Gaurav
Vishwakarma, Founder, VoxTurn.

AI belongs in the part of the funnel that
is high in volume, repetitive in nature, and hard to staff effectively:
first-touch qualification calls, outbound reminders, follow-up sequences,
off-hours inbound, and regional language coverage across shifts that no human
team can cost-effectively maintain. Human agents, freed from that grind, spend
their time on warm, qualified conversations where judgment and relationships
determine the outcome.

The same economics extend well beyond
sales. Utility helplines, loan reminders, appointment follow-ups, government
outreach programs: the constraint is identical across all of them. Too many
people to reach, not enough agents, and an attrition problem that never goes
away.

This, VoxTurn says, is where India&#039;s real
AI economy is being built.

About VoxTurn

VoxTurn is the voice and conversational
AI product line of Invorto RealTech Pvt. Ltd., a Bengaluru-based company
building AI voice agents for Indian enterprises. Since 2023, VoxTurn has
deployed voice AI in production across financial services and consumer
businesses, handling outbound and inbound phone operations in regional
languages at scale. The company was featured on Shark Tank India Season 5. ]]></description>

<title>Priyanka Prasad Impresses in Her Powerful Debut, standing tall alongside Sai Kumar</title>
<link>https://en.newsbolt.in/priyanka-prasad-impresses-in-her-powerful-debut-standing-tall-alongside-sai-kumar</link>
<guid>https://en.newsbolt.in/priyanka-prasad-impresses-in-her-powerful-debut-standing-tall-alongside-sai-kumar</guid>
<description><![CDATA[ Mumbai : For any newcomer, sharing
screen space with an experienced performer such as Sai Kumar is a challenge.
Yet Priyanka Prasad approaches her role with remarkable confidence and
sincerity.

 

As Goyya Lakshmi Prasanna, Priyanka delivers a performance
rooted in natural expression rather than exaggerated dramatics. Her portrayal
reflects innocence, emotional vulnerability, and strength in equal measure.
What stands out most is her ability to remain believable in emotional scenes
while maintaining a strong screen presence.

 

Her expressive eyes, subtle body language, and controlled
emotional graph allow her scenes to feel organic. Rather than attempting to
dominate the screen, she focuses on serving the story, a quality often
associated with performers who enjoy long careers in cinema.

Industry observers often note that a debut performance is judged
not merely by dialogue delivery but by how comfortably an actor inhabits a
character. In Pranaya Godari, Priyanka succeeds in making her character feel
authentic and relatable to audiences.

One of the film&#039;s strengths is the chemistry between the lead
pair.

 

Veteran actor Sai Kumar is known for commanding performances and
powerful dialogue delivery. Sharing meaningful scenes with such an accomplished
actor can be intimidating for a newcomer.

However, Priyanka Prasad demonstrates commendable maturity.
While Sai Kumar provides dramatic weight and authority, Priyanka complements
the narrative with emotional depth and sincerity. The contrast between
experience and youthful energy works effectively for the film and enhances her
credibility as an actress.

 

Following the film&#039;s release, audience discussions highlighted
the performances of the cast, particularly the fresh pairing and emotional
storytelling. Viewer feedback on entertainment platforms frequently mentioned
the acting performances and overall presentation of the film.

 

For a debut actress, generating positive conversation among
Telugu audiences is often the first step toward a sustainable career, and
Priyanka appears to have achieved exactly that.

 

After establishing herself through Pranaya Godari, Priyanka
Prasad is increasingly being viewed as a performer capable of handling both
commercial and content-driven cinema.

 

Industry circles indicate growing interest in seeing her explore
projects beyond Telugu cinema, including Hindi-language films and digital
content. Her combination of screen appeal, performance-oriented acting, and
adaptability positions her well for opportunities in Mumbai and Hyderabad.

 

There is particular curiosity regarding her association with
creative ventures being developed by Orbit Media Studio and Childhood Dreams
Production, both of which are known for nurturing fresh storytelling and
emerging talent. While official announcements are being on the floor soon.
Industry watchers believe Priyanka has the potential to become a strong bridge
between Telugu entertainment markets.

 

Every few years, an actress arrives whose greatest strength is
not glamour alone but the ability to make audiences believe in the character
she portrays.

 

If her debut is any indication, Telugu cinema may have
discovered a performer capable of building a long and meaningful career across
regional and national platforms. Her journey has only begun, but the confidence,
poise, and emotional honesty displayed in Pranaya Godari make her an actress
worth watching in the years ahead.

<title>World&amp;apos;s Largest 5,211&#45;kg Parad Shivling Created by Raghunath Guruji; Grand Pran Pratishtha Held in Haridwar</title>

<guid>https://en.newsbolt.in/worlds-largest-5211-kg-parad-shivling-created-by-raghunath-guruji-grand-pran-pratishtha-held-in-haridwar</guid>
<description><![CDATA[ The three-day Pran Pratishtha (consecration ceremony) of
the world&#039;s largest 5,211-kilogram Parad Shivling was successfully conducted at
Shri Sai Shiv Ganga Dham in Haridwar, Uttarakhand, amid devotion, Vedic
rituals, and a spiritually charged atmosphere. More than 2,000 devotees,
seekers, saints, and distinguished guests from across India participated in the
grand event.

The massive Parad Shivling was created by Dhyan Guru
Raghunath Guruji after nearly ten years of spiritual practice, research, and
in-depth study of Parad science. Mercury, silver, gold, and extracts of 108
herbs were used in its creation. Spiritual scholars describe it as the world&#039;s
largest Parad Shivling and a remarkable confluence of India&#039;s spiritual
heritage, Parad science, and meditation traditions.

Beyond his spiritual work, Raghunath Guruji is also
widely recognized as a renowned palmist and life guide who has counselled
several prominent personalities from the film industry, business world, and
public life. Over the years, he has guided celebrities including Bollywood
actors Sanjay Dutt and Raveena Tandon, as well as public figures such as Member
of Parliament Raghav Chadha and actress Parineeti Chopra. His unique blend of
spiritual wisdom, palmistry, meditation, and personal mentoring has earned him
a respected place among both spiritual seekers and members of the entertainment
industry.

The Pran Pratishtha ceremony was held under the
blessings of Guru Gorakhnath Maharaj&#039;s tradition, revered Pir Yogi Mahant
Somnath Bapu of Girnar, and the guidance of Padma Bhushan Dr. Vijay Bhatkar.
The event aimed to spread the message of world peace, human welfare, and
positive energy.

Raghunath Guruji stated that the Shivling is not merely
a religious symbol but a center for meditation, self-reflection, and positive
consciousness. He added that the Shivling, created after years of research and
spiritual practice, represents a message of human welfare and spiritual
awakening. Earlier, in 2019, he had organized a grand Ashwamedh Yagya attended
by nearly 10,000 people.

Known for his work across spirituality and personal
transformation, Raghunath Guruji has built a following that extends beyond
traditional religious circles. His interactions with actors, filmmakers,
entrepreneurs, and political leaders have often highlighted the growing
interest in spiritual guidance and holistic well-being among public figures.
This unique connection with the entertainment industry has also made him a
familiar name among film journalists and Bollywood observers.

Several eminent saints and dignitaries attended the
ceremony, including Jagadguru Shankaracharya Swami Ji Maharaj, Shri Sudhanshu
Ji Maharaj, Swami Kailashanand Giri Ji Maharaj, Swami Avdheshanand Giri Ji
Maharaj, Swami Ravindra Puri Ji Maharaj, Shri Dinesh Chandra Ji, senior
representatives of the Vishva Hindu Parishad, Sadhvi Ritambhara Ji, Acharya
Manish Ji (HIIMS), MP Raghav Chadha, and State Minister and Ganga Sabha
President Nitin Gautam.

Industrialist and social worker Rajeev Bansal played a
significant role in organizing the event. He said, &quot;I am a devotee of Sai
Baba. By Baba&#039;s blessings, I received the opportunity to be a part of this
divine mission. For me, this was an opportunity for service and devotion.&quot;

At the conclusion of the ceremony, Raghunath Guruji
expressed gratitude to all saints, devotees, volunteers, and supporters. He
specially acknowledged the contribution of Rajeev Bansal, whose dedicated
efforts helped ensure the success of the grand event.

The success of the ceremony was also supported by
Adarniya Dadashree, Manoj Toshniwal Family, Manoj Gohad, IG Takwale, Mamta
Jiwal, Tarun Bhandari, Amit Agarwal, Ramesh Sanwarthiya, Dollarbhai Kotecha,
Sudhir Agarwal, Raju Oswal, Jitendra Rathi, and many other devotees and
well-wishers.

Alongside spiritual activities, Raghunath Guruji is
actively involved in disability empowerment, women farmers&#039; welfare,
environmental awareness, and innovation-based social initiatives. Through
DICCAI (Divyang Indian Chamber of Commerce &amp; Industry), efforts are being made
to promote self-employment and economic empowerment among persons with
disabilities, with CEO Amit Agarwal playing a key role.

The event concluded with the message: &quot;Meditation
leads to Peace, Peace leads to Harmony, and Harmony leads to Global Welfare.&quot;
Devotees described the ceremony as a historic confluence of spirituality,
science, service, and human welfare. ]]></description>

events, The Planters&#039; Theatre banquet hall combines stone walls and Burma teak
interiors for weddings and private gatherings.

<description><![CDATA[  

Kuthambakkam,
Chennai, June 2026: 
Kuthambakkam is rapidly emerging as one of Chennai&#039;s most promising real
estate destinations, attracting both investors and homebuyers looking for
long-term value. Strategically located along the Chennai–Bangalore Highway, the
locality offers excellent connectivity, growing infrastructure, and strong
appreciation potential. With Kuthambakkam Bus Terminal, proposed metro
connectivity, and easy access to major industrial hubs, educational
institutions, healthcare facilities, and commercial centers, Kuthambakkam has
become a preferred destination for those searching for the best plots for sale in Kuthambakkam.
Its affordability compared to other developing locations in Chennai further
enhances its appeal as a future-ready investment corridor.

[Commenting
on the growth potential, Mr. Sachin Mehta, Managing Director of Jain Housing
&amp; Constructions Ltd., said, &quot;Kuthambakkam has already delivered nearly
30% appreciation in the last 12 months, reflecting the strong growth momentum
of Kuthambakkam. With ongoing infrastructure development and improved
connectivity, we anticipate a further 20% appreciation in the near future,
making it an attractive investment opportunity.&quot;]

Building
on the success of the project, Jains Adarsh Avenue Phase 1 has
been successfully sold out, highlighting the strong demand for quality plotted
developments in the region. Following this response, Jain Housing has launched
Phase 2, offering only 56 exclusive plots. For buyers seeking the best plot in
Kuthambakkam, this limited availability presents an excellent opportunity to
invest in a fast-growing location with significant future potential.

Jains Adarsh Avenue is
a premium gated community offering CMDA-approved plots in Kuthambakkam with
thoughtfully planned infrastructure and lifestyle-focused amenities. The
project features wide blacktop roads, avenue plantations, landscaped
surroundings, street lighting, and a secure gated environment. Its strategic
location is very close to the bus terminal, with seamless connectivity to schools,
colleges, hospitals, employment hubs, and major transportation networks, making
it an ideal choice for both end-users and investors in Thirumazhisai. ]]></description>

Leadership Voices

Vanakkam, Chennai!

So many people from Adyar and across South
Chennai have already been a part of the Kosmoderma family for years, and the
love and trust you have given us mean everything to us.

Today, with our new Adyar clinic, we are
simply extending our hands to serve you closer to home with the same care,
expertise, and trust that Kosmoderma is known for.

We are truly happy to welcome Adyar even
more closely into the Kosmoderma family. Thank you, Chennai, for always being a
part of our journey.”

— Dr. Chytra V Anand, Founder &amp; CEO,
Kosmoderma

Franchise Partner

The Adyar clinic is led by Ms. Anitha Koti,
a passionate entrepreneur who brings both business acumen and a deep belief in
accessible, quality healthcare to this venture. Her decision to partner with
Kosmoderma reflects a shared commitment that the people of South Chennai
deserve world-class aesthetic care, right in their own neighborhood.

Partnering with Kosmoderma was a clear
choice for me. This is a brand built on trust, clinical excellence, and genuine
care for its clients. Bringing that to Adyar is something I am truly proud of,
and I look forward to welcoming this community into the Kosmoderma family.

— Ms. Anitha Koti, Franchise Owner,
Kosmoderma Adyar

For us, the Adyar launch reflects one clear
priority: bringing the Kosmoderma standard of care closer to more people
without ever diluting the quality of the experience.

Every Kosmoderma clinic is built on the
same foundation — strong systems, dermatologist-led consultations,
hospital-grade processes, and a patient journey designed around safety,
consistency, and comfort. That is what allows us to deliver the same level of
trust whether a patient visits us in Bangalore, Mumbai, Delhi, or Chennai.

Our responsibility is not only to expand
but also to expand responsibly. Adyar gives South Chennai access to premium
aesthetic care that is structured, reliable, and designed to meet the
expectations of today’s informed patients. 

— [Tanuushka K Lal], COO, Kosmoderma

Chennai has consistently emerged as one of
India’s most aware and quality-conscious markets in aesthetic dermatology, with
patients placing increasing importance on medically guided treatments, safety
standards, and trusted clinical expertise.

What makes the Adyar expansion especially
meaningful for us is the strong relationship Kosmoderma has already built with
patients and families across South Chennai. Many of them have travelled
considerable distances to seek our care, and this clinic allows us to bring the
Kosmoderma experience significantly closer to their everyday lives.

Today’s consumers are more informed than
ever before. They are no longer influenced by exaggerated promises alone; they
want transparency, expertise, personalized guidance, and confidence in the
medical credibility behind every treatment they choose. That shift strongly
reflects the values Kosmoderma has stood for since its inception.”

— Dr. Soumitra Das, National Head –
Marketing &amp; Sales, Kosmoderma

“In aesthetic dermatology, meaningful and
safe outcomes are determined long before a procedure begins. They come from
accurate diagnosis, clinical judgment, ethical decision-making, and choosing
the right treatment plan for the right patient.

At Kosmoderma, every treatment
recommendation begins with a detailed dermatologist-led assessment because we
strongly believe no two individuals should ever be approached with the same
treatment strategy. Every skin type, hair concern, lifestyle factor, and
aesthetic goal requires careful evaluation and personalized planning.

The Adyar clinic has been developed around
that same medical philosophy — evidence-based dermatology, scientifically
validated technologies, ethical treatment practices, and patient safety
integrated into every stage of care. For us, responsible aesthetic medicine
will always matter more than trend-driven treatments.”

— Dr. Nistha, Medical Head, Kosmoderma

WHY IT MATTERS

Most aesthetic clinics in India operate
with no accreditation, no dermatologist on staff, and equipment that carries no
regulatory approval. Patients often have no way to tell the difference until
something goes wrong. Kosmoderma’s focus on safety protocols, treatment
standards, and exclusive use of US FDA-approved technologies helps remove that
guesswork for patients. 

For Adyar residents, the choice used to be
between convenience and quality. That trade-off is gone. The clinic is built to
the same standard as every other Kosmoderma location across Bangalore, Mumbai,
and Delhi — and it is now a ten-minute drive away.

ABOUT KOSMODERMA

Founded in 2006 by globally known Celebrity
Cosmetic Dermatologist Dr. Chytra V. Anand, Kosmoderma Skin, Hair &amp; Body
Clinics is a premium cosmetic dermatology and aesthetic healthcare brand built
on strong clinical expertise, continuous training, and a knowledge-first
approach to care. At Kosmoderma, the belief is simple: we do not serve services
first—we serve knowledge first, and that knowledge flows into every treatment
recommendation and care plan.

Each individual is carefully understood,
guided, and personalized through every stage of their aesthetic journey, with
treatment plans tailored to their unique concerns and goals. More than a
clinic, Kosmoderma strives to be a family, where trust, care, and guidance
extend beyond the individual to the people they care about as well.

A prominent figure in India&#039;s AI governance debate, Goel is
also a Trustee of the Bharat Governance Council and is widely celebrated for
his deep understanding of consumer behaviour in the Indian market an insight
that informs both his enterprise work and his contributions to national policy.

Who Is Anmol Pushjai Goel?

Anmol Pushjai Goel is a prominent Indian entrepreneur, tech
policy expert, industrialist, and philanthropist. He is the Founder and CEO of
Nuclear Edge, Trustee of the Bharat Governance Council, and an advisory and
board member to multiple ministries under the Union Government of India. He is
known for an aggressive approach to building a competitive policy and business
environment in India, and for a consumer-centric philosophy rooted in a deep
reading of Indian market dynamics.

What distinguishes Goel from most technology entrepreneurs
is the academic foundation he brings to his work. His educational record cuts
across disciplines in a way that is rare among India&#039;s tech and policy
leadership.

Education: The Interdisciplinary Foundation

Goel holds a Bachelor&#039;s degree in Psychology from Panjab
University, Chandigarh an institution with a long legacy in the social
sciences. He then pursued a Master&#039;s degree in Sociology from Jawaharlal Nehru
University (JNU), New Delhi, before returning to Panjab University for a second
Master&#039;s degree, this time in Philosophy.

Psychology. Sociology. Philosophy. It is a trifecta that
gives Goel a rigorous analytical framework for understanding human behaviour,
institutional structures, and the ethical dimensions of technology capabilities
that engineering-first backgrounds rarely cultivate. That grounding directly shapes
his ability to engage with AI and automation not just as a market opportunity,
but as a social and governance challenge.

Nuclear Edge: Building at the Frontier of Technology and
Policy

As Founder and CEO of Nuclear Edges, Anmol
Pushjai Goel leads a firm positioned at the intersection of technology
consulting, policy architecture, and enterprise strategy. Nuclear Edge reflects
Goel&#039;s core conviction: that India&#039;s technology sector cannot wait for
regulation to catch up with innovation. Industry must actively shape the policy
environment and do so with both ambition and accountability.

Goel is known for an aggressive policy push, advocating for
frameworks that allow Indian businesses to compete on the global stage without
sacrificing the unique dynamics of the domestic market. His celebrated
understanding of consumer behaviour in India. How decisions are made across its
vast spectrum of languages, incomes, digital literacy levels, and cultural
contexts is central to both his enterprise approach and his influence in policy
rooms.

Union Government Advisory Roles and the Bharat Governance
Council

Goel&#039;s advisory and board memberships span multiple
ministries under the Union Government of India. A footprint that places him at
the table where national policy on artificial intelligence, automation, and
digital governance is actively being written. As India works to formalise its
regulatory stance on AI, his voice carries both practitioner credibility and
policy literacy.

As a Trustee of the Bharat Governance Council, Goel works
toward a parallel but complementary goal: strengthening the institutional
architecture through which India governs itself. The Council&#039;s mandate to build
more adaptive, responsive governance frameworks aligns closely with his
conviction that good policy and good business are not in opposition, but are
mutually dependent.

Business Philosophy: Aggressive, Grounded, Indian-First

Those who have worked with Anmol Pushjai Goel consistently
describe a business philosophy that is aggressive without being reckless, and
ambitious without losing sight of India&#039;s structural realities. He pushes hard
for a policy and business environment that empowers domestic entrepreneurs,
resists regulatory overreach, and positions India as a rule-maker, not a
rule-taker in the global AI economy.

At the same time, he brings to every enterprise engagement a
sociologist&#039;s patience with complexity. India is not one market. Its consumers
behave differently across states, income levels, and digital access tiers.
Goel&#039;s celebrated understanding of that complexity is what makes him effective
not just as a CEO, but as a policy interlocutor who can translate ground-level
market realities into language that governments can act on.

Philanthropy: Governance and Equitable Access

Goel&#039;s philanthropic work is an extension of his
professional convictions. Through the Bharat Governance Council and affiliated
initiatives, he has championed equitable access to digital education and skills
development ensuring that India&#039;s AI-driven growth is not confined to its
metropolitan elite. His approach to philanthropy, like his approach to policy,
is structural: fix the systems, not just the symptoms.

<title>TransIndia unveils ‘Meridian’ in Sion&#45;Matunga Corridor</title>
<link>https://en.newsbolt.in/transindia-unveils-meridian-in-sion-matunga-corridor</link>
<guid>https://en.newsbolt.in/transindia-unveils-meridian-in-sion-matunga-corridor</guid>
<description><![CDATA[  

Mumbai, June 18, 2026: TransIndia Group announced the launch of TransIndia Meridian,
a landmark residential development in the Sion-Matunga Corridor, a
neighbourhood where Mumbai&#039;s rich cultural heritage, strong community fabric,
and urban connectivity converge. Conceived as an integrated residential
destination, Meridian seeks to complement this unique setting with contemporary
design, curated lifestyle experiences, and modern luxury.

Located in the Sion-Matunga Corridor, one
of the most sought after locations in Central Mumbai, the project is spread
across 3.2 acres. The corridor has witnessed consistent real estate price
appreciation over the years, driven by its central location, established social
infrastructure, and growing connectivity upgrades. Meridian has been designed
as a destination in the heart of this stretch that reflects the evolving
aspirations of urban homebuyers. With its blend of spacious residences,
landscaped environments, lifestyle amenities, and strategic connectivity, the
project aims to offer a contemporary living experience while benefiting from
the enduring appeal of a neighbourhood that has long been synonymous with
culture, education, and community living.

Meridian comprises six elegant towers
featuring spacious 2 and 3-BHK residences, expansive views of the city and bay,
multi-level parking, premium retail frontage, and Vastu-aligned layouts. Every
aspect of the development has been envisioned to create a living experience
that is both sophisticated and deeply connected to its environment.

At the heart of the project lies a
carefully curated lifestyle ecosystem designed to enrich everyday living.
Landscaped podium greens, inviting social spaces, and over 50 lifestyle
amenities have been woven into the development to create opportunities for
recreation, wellness, and community engagement.

The grand clubhouse serves as a vibrant
social and wellness hub, offering a fitness plaza, gymnasium, multipurpose
hall, banquet facilities, indoor games room, mini theatre, VR room, salon and
spa, alongside dedicated spaces for children and families. Across the podium level,
residents will discover a series of thoughtfully designed experiences,
including a Zen garden, cricket turf, movie lounge, BBQ area, swing-climb
plaza, trampoline garden, and landscaped walkways that encourage connection and
leisure.

Elevating the experience further are
Meridian&#039;s sky-level amenities. Here, residents can unwind amid open skies and
sweeping views, with access to a yoga lawn, swimming pool, party lawn, cabana
seating, hammock plaza, crossfit gym, and a star-gazing deck that transforms everyday
moments into memorable experiences.

The Sion-Matunga Corridor remains one
of Mumbai&#039;s most distinctive residential districts, and as
infrastructure upgrades and urban renewal gather pace, the neighbourhood is
increasingly emerging as a sought-after location that combines the comfort of
an established locality with the promise of future growth.

Meridian is strategically positioned within
this ecosystem, offering easy access to landmarks such as Five Gardens, Shivaji
Park, Phoenix Palladium, and R City malls, leading institutions including Don
Bosco High School, SIES College, KJ Somaiya Hospital and Medical College, VJTI
Institute, and ICT Mumbai. Situated at one of Mumbai&#039;s most centrally connected
locations, Meridian benefits from proximity to the Central, Western, and
Harbour suburban railway corridors, enabling effortless travel across the city.
Its strategic location is further reinforced by connectivity through the
Eastern and Western Express Highways, Sion-Dharavi Link Road, Sion-BKC Flyover,
and onward access to the Bandra-Worli Sea Link, ensuring smooth travel to major
commercial hubs, including BKC, Lower Parel, Fort, and SEEPZ-MIDC. Upcoming
metro corridors and proximity to both Mumbai and Navi Mumbai airports further
add to its connectivity advantage.

Commenting on the launch, Rajendra M.
Rajan- Founder, TransIndia Group said, “Certain
neighbourhoods possess a timeless quality that cannot be recreated.
The Sion-Matunga Corridor is one such belt that has a deeply rooted
sense of belonging. Meridian has been envisioned as a natural extension of this
aspect. Rather than simply building residences, our objective with Meridian has
been to create an address that celebrates the spirit of the neighbourhood while
introducing a lifestyle that reflects the aspirations of a new generation of
homeowners. We believe the finest developments are those that become part of a
locality&#039;s story, and this is a project designed keeping that very philosophy
in mind.”

The TransIndia Group has, over the past 15
years, built a reputation based on its foundation of credibility, consistency,
and customer-centric development. It has delivered over 12 lakh sq. ft., has
more than 55 lakh sq. ft. under development, has served over 1,000 families,
and has rehabilitated approximately 2,500 tenements. The group continues to
expand its footprint across Mumbai through projects that prioritise both
quality and long-term value creation.

The TransIndia Meridian represents the
latest expression of that vision of creating a landmark address where the
heritage of Sion-Matunga, the aspirations of contemporary homebuyers, and
the promise of Mumbai&#039;s future come together to create a truly distinctive
address.

<title>FNP Unveils Its Father’s Day 2026 Collection ‘He’s The Reason’ — A Thoughtful Celebration of Love, Legacy, and Everyday Moments</title>
<link>https://en.newsbolt.in/fnp-unveils-its-fathers-day-2026-collection-hes-the-reason-a-thoughtful-celebration-of-love-legacy-and-everyday-moments</link>
<guid>https://en.newsbolt.in/fnp-unveils-its-fathers-day-2026-collection-hes-the-reason-a-thoughtful-celebration-of-love-legacy-and-everyday-moments</guid>
<description><![CDATA[ New Delhi, June 2026:
India’s leading gifting brand FNP (Ferns N Petals) announces the launch of its
Father’s Day 2026 Collection, built around the evocative theme “He’s The
Reason.”

At the heart of this
theme lies a simple yet powerful insight—fathers are often the quiet force
behind who we become. From shaping our values and resilience to influencing our
ambitions, humour, and sense of security, their presence is deeply felt, even
if not always openly expressed. With “He’s The Reason,” FNP aims to
bring this unspoken gratitude to the forefront, encouraging people to
acknowledge and celebrate the man who has been the reason behind so many
defining moments in their lives.

This thought directly
informs the collection, where every product has been curated as a medium of
expression—designed not just to be gifted, but to communicate emotion, memory,
and personal connection. The collection moves beyond transactional gifting to
enable more meaningful gestures that reflect individual relationships and
shared experiences.

This year, FNP approaches
Father’s Day with a more editorial and emotionally driven lens, transforming
the occasion into a deeply expressive celebration. The collection brings
together a diverse and contemporary assortment of gifts across categories
including elegant floral arrangements, Father’s Day cakes, personalised gifts,
plants, gourmet hamper, accessories, and thoughtfully designed combos—each
crafted to blend emotion with utility.

Among the highlights is
FNP’s distinct blue-themed floral collection, created to give Father’s
Day a unique and contemporary visual identity. Featuring arrangements such as The
Blue Classic Tribute, Dad’s Blue Smile Bouquet, and Blue Orchid Tribute
for Dad, these designs symbolise calm strength, dependability, and quiet
elegance—qualities often associated with fatherhood—thereby reinforcing the
central theme.

Personalisation
continues to play a key role in bringing the idea of “He’s The Reason”
to life. The collection includes a wide range of customised products such as
photo mugs, LED lamps, table clocks, and cakes that allow customers to add
names, photographs, and personal messages. These memory-led offerings are

<description><![CDATA[ Bhubaneswar, June 2026 : In a meaningful step towards
promoting public health and environmental sustainability, EXIM Logistics
Private Limited has undertaken a Pan-India initiative to distribute stainless
steel water bottles among local drivers operating at transport hubs, industrial
locations, and logistics corridors across various working sites.

Company Website - http://www.eximlogistics.in/

The initiative was launched in response to increasing
awareness regarding the potential health concerns associated with the prolonged
use of low-quality plastic water bottles, especially during the scorching
summer months. By encouraging the use of durable steel bottles, EXIM Logistics
aims to support healthier hydration practices while reducing plastic waste in
the transport ecosystem.

As part of the campaign, hundreds of local truck drivers and
transport workers were provided with reusable stainless steel water bottles at
various operational locations. The initiative has been widely appreciated by
the driver community, who spend long hours on roads and at loading and
unloading points under challenging weather conditions. 

Speaking on the occasion, Mr. Himadri Keshari Pattanaik,
Managing Director, EXIM Logistics Private Limited, said: 

&quot;At EXIM Logistics, we believe that businesses have a
responsibility beyond operations. Drivers play a vital role in keeping India&#039;s
supply chain moving, and their health and well-being deserve attention and
support. Through this initiative, we are encouraging healthier alternatives to
plastic bottles while promoting sustainable habits among the transport
community.&quot;

Linkedin - https://in.linkedin.com/company/exim-logistics-private-limited 

He further added:

 &quot;A simple steel
water bottle can make a meaningful difference. It helps reduce plastic
consumption, encourages safe drinking water practices, and contributes to a
cleaner environment. We are pleased to take this initiative across multiple
locations in India and remain committed to creating a positive impact in the
communities where we operate.&quot;

The campaign reflects EXIM Logistics&#039; continued commitment
to social responsibility, environmental stewardship, and community welfare. By
addressing a small yet significant aspect of daily life, the company hopes to
inspire broader awareness about sustainable practices and personal health.

The initiative is being implemented across various working
locations on a Pan-India basis and forms part of EXIM Logistics&#039; ongoing
efforts to contribute meaningfully to society while promoting responsible
business practices.

<description><![CDATA[ Monticle Glamps,
Kerala’s first 5-star luxury glamping resort nestled in the mist-laden hills of
Vagamon, has emerged as one of the most sought-after and highly rated
experiential stays in South India. Guests across travel platforms are
consistently awarding the property top scores, citing its rare combination of
unbridled natural beauty, world-class comfort, and deeply personalised
hospitality as the defining reason for their glowing testimonials.

Since its launch,
Monticle Glamps quickly became the top resort in vagamon and
has received a steady stream of five-star reviews on Google and TripAdvisor,
with guests repeatedly highlighting the uniqueness of staying inside a geodesic
dome glamp set against panoramic views of Vagamon’s green valleys, or
retreating into a Bali-inspired Eagle Eye Private Pool Villa that brings
the warmth of island luxury to the cool mountain air of Kerala. Reviewers
consistently describe the experience as “unlike anything else in Kerala” — a
sentiment that speaks to the resort’s deliberate vision of redefining what a
hill resort can be.

Guests Celebrate the
Stay, the Experiences, and the People

Customer reviews about Monticle
Glamps across platforms point to a consistent theme:
the experiences at Monticle Glamps go far beyond the rooms. Guests praise the
resort’s curated activity menu — from guided tea leaf plucking in the
estate’s own plantation, to off-road jeep safaris through Vagamon’s
iconic viewpoints including Kurisumala, Parunthumpara, and Pine Valley. Guests
on honeymoon packages frequently highlight private campfire evenings paired
with candle-lit dinners under the open Vagamon sky as moments they will carry
with them forever.

The resort’s team —
described by multiple reviewers as “warm, attentive, and genuinely caring” —
has emerged as a standout element of the guest experience. From the chefs who
conduct interactive cooking demonstrations using fresh, locally sourced
ingredients, to the hosts who go out of their way to customise birthday and
anniversary setups, the people of Monticle Glamps are as much a part of the
story as the landscape itself.

A Luxury Destination
for Couples, Families, and Corporate Groups in Vagamon, Kerala

What is striking about
the guest feedback at Monticle Glamps is the breadth of its appeal.
Honeymooners arrive seeking romance and seclusion; they find it in the Luxury rooms
and cottages -Jacuzzi Glamps and private pool villas and the resort’s Moonspell
Romance package. Families come looking for wholesome
adventure; they discover it through cycling trails, tea garden nature walks,
and the swimming pool positioned at the heart of a working tea plantation.
Corporate groups seeking offsite retreats are drawn by the resort’s
team-building activity programmes and the rare serenity of the Vagamon hills.

“We built Monticle
Glamps around a single belief — that the hills of Vagamon deserve a stay
experience as extraordinary as the landscape itself. The love our guests are
showing us is the validation that we got it right. Every review is a reminder
of why we do what we do.”

<title>Equanimity Learning Unveils ‘EquaL’: A Structured School Audit Framework Built for Sustainable Growth</title>
<link>https://en.newsbolt.in/equanimity-learning-unveils-equal-a-structured-school-audit-framework-built-for-sustainable-growth</link>
<guid>https://en.newsbolt.in/equanimity-learning-unveils-equal-a-structured-school-audit-framework-built-for-sustainable-growth</guid>
<description><![CDATA[ Equanimity
Learning launches ‘EquaL School Audit’, a structured framework to evaluate
institutional performance on the philosophy of ‘Rate. Realign. Rise.’

Pune, 18th June 2026 : As schools across India strive to align with the National Education
Policy (NEP) 2020 and evolving quality benchmarks, Equanimity Learning has
introduced EquaL (School Audit and Rating), a comprehensive
framework designed to help educational institutions assess, strengthen and
sustain excellence through evidence-based evaluation and strategic improvement.
Equanimity Learning is a forward-thinking educational platform co-founded by
Mr. Siddharth Rajgarhia and Mr. Gautam Rajgarhia, is on a mission to transform
the global education landscape.

Built on the philosophy of &quot;Rate.
Realign. Rise.&quot;, EquaL offers schools an independent, practitioner-led
audit that evaluates institutional performance across eight critical domains,
including Governance &amp; Strategic Leadership, Teaching-Learning Design &amp;
Delivery, Assessment &amp; Academic Progress, Student Wellbeing &amp; School
Culture, Parent &amp; Community Partnership, Operations &amp; Compliance,
Admissions &amp; School Experience and Continuous Improvement &amp;
Professional Development.

Equanimity Learning has successfully
completed audits across schools in Maharashtra, Gujarat and Uttar Pradesh. This
initial phase serves as a vital blueprint for a broader expansion.

Speaking about the initiative, Siddharth
Rajgarhia, Co-Founder, Equanimity Learning said, &quot;Running a school
demands constant attention and effort. But in the midst of managing everything,
it becomes difficult to pause and notice the gaps that quietly hold the school
back. EquaL is designed to bring structured clarity and actionable insights
that help schools grow with intention.&quot;

Recognising that academic excellence
extends beyond classroom instruction, EquaL adopts a 360-degree diagnostic
approach that examines the systems influencing student outcomes, leadership
effectiveness, teacher development, school governance, infrastructure, admissions
and community engagement. The framework is designed to help schools move from
reactive functioning to intentional, evidence-driven improvement.

Unlike conventional assessments that focus
solely on outcomes, EquaL evaluates whether schools are built on sustainable
systems rather than individual efforts. Through a blended audit methodology
comprising online document reviews, classroom walkthroughs, data triangulation
and stakeholder interviews, the framework provides a holistic picture of
institutional effectiveness while identifying institutional strengths,
operational blind spots and opportunities for long-term growth.

Gautam Rajgarhia, Co-Founder, Equanimity Learning added, &quot;Strong schools are
built on intent and effort. Sustainable growth happens when that effort is
translated into clear systems that work consistently beyond individuals. EquaL
empowers school leaders with a roadmap for long-term institutional
excellence.&quot;

The audit culminates in a five-tier rating
scale—Bronze, Silver, Gold, Diamond and Platinum, allowing schools to benchmark
their current standing while identifying clear pathways for improvement.

Beyond evaluation, EquaL offers a
structured 12-month improvement partnership that includes quick-win action
plans, domain-specific reports, aligned scorecards, strategic roadmaps,
periodic reviews and dedicated assessor support to ensure continuous progress.
The initiative aims to strengthen governance, teaching-learning practices,
student well-being, teacher development, admissions and parent-community
partnerships through measurable and actionable interventions.

Equanimity Learning believes that stronger
board results and better student outcomes are achieved by strengthening the
ecosystem around learning. By providing an evidence-backed audit, a scored
improvement roadmap and implementation support, EquaL enables institutions to
build consistency across classrooms, leadership, and the overall student
experience.

Grounded in NEP 2020, SQAAF, NABET
standards and international best practices, Equanimity Learning combines
educational expertise with practical implementation support, enabling schools
to build resilient systems, improve governance, enhance teaching-learning
practices and deliver sustained institutional excellence. By moving beyond compliance
to continuous improvement, EquaL aims to become a trusted quality assurance and
institutional development partner for schools seeking measurable and
sustainable growth.

About Equanimity Learning

Equanimity Learning is dedicated to
redefining education through a unique approach that emphasizes 1% daily
improvements. With a focus on AI integration, leadership development and
personalized training, the platform empowers educators and institutions to
achieve long-term sustainable growth. Its innovative programs are designed to
cater to diverse educational contexts, ensuring scalability and impact.

that have defined football culture over the years.

where our identity as a brand rooted in celebrations truly comes to life. As we
mark 40 years of partnership with FIFA, we’re building on a legacy that has
shaped some of the most iconic moments in football and global fan culture. In
India, where football fandom is becoming more expressive and culturally
connected, we’re excited to bring that energy to life through experiences like
our interactive Messi mural - creating spaces where fans can come together and
celebrate their passion for the game. Our focus is on showing up in ways that
feel authentic, relevant, and true to the spirit of collective celebration that

<title>The Future of Lending Lies in Balancing Technology with Trust: Seeds Fincap MD on India&amp;apos;s Evolving Credit Landscape</title>
<link>https://en.newsbolt.in/the-future-of-lending-lies-in-balancing-technology-with-trust-seeds-fincap-md-on-indias-evolving-credit-landscape</link>
<guid>https://en.newsbolt.in/the-future-of-lending-lies-in-balancing-technology-with-trust-seeds-fincap-md-on-indias-evolving-credit-landscape</guid>
<description><![CDATA[ As India accelerates towards becoming a digitally
empowered economy, Non-Banking Financial Companies (NBFCs) are playing an
increasingly important role in expanding access to credit, particularly in
underserved and rural markets. In this interview with IANS, Mr. Subhash
Chandra Acharya, Managing Director and CEO of Seeds Fincap Private Limited,
shares his perspective on the future of India&#039;s lending ecosystem, the rise of
AI and climate finance, the importance of financial inclusion, and how Seeds
Fincap is working to bridge the country&#039;s credit gap through a combination of
technology, local engagement, and responsible lending.

1.What trends do you believe will define the next
decade for India&#039;s NBFC sector?

The next decade for India’s NBFC sector will be shaped
by four key trends:  technology, wider
product offerings, smarter workforce talent, and theme-based financing.

At SEEDS, we believe technology creates the greatest
value when it is combined with a human touch. Digital tools can improve speed
and efficiency, but trust and customer understanding will continue to be
critical, especially in financial inclusion.

We also see growing demand for more tailored financial
solutions that meet the specific needs of different customer segments. At the
same time, building agile and skilled will be essential as the sector evolves. 

Another important trend will be climate finance.
Financing clean energy, sustainable livelihoods, and climate-resilient smart
agriculture solutions will not only create 
social impact but also become an important growth opportunity for
responsible lenders. 

2. With increasing competition from fintech players,
how can traditional NBFCs stay relevant and agile?

 Traditional
NBFCs can stay relevant by embracing technology while preserving the strength
of their local presence. Fintech have brought speed and convenience, but many
customers still value personal relationship and local understanding. At SEEDS,
we believe in a ‘tech plus touch’ approach. Technology helps us improve
efficiency and customer experience, while our field presence helps us better
understand customer needs and local market realities. 

In my view, the institutions that successfully combine
digital innovation with human connection will be best positioned for the
future. 

3.If you had to identify one major opportunity and one
major challenge for India&#039;s lending ecosystem today, what would they be? 

One of the biggest opportunities in India’s lending
ecosystem is the huge untapped credit demand among individuals,
micro-enterprises, and underserved communities.

As India’s economy continues to grow, the need for
accessible and timely credit will increase significantly.

The biggest challenge is ensuring responsible lending
in an increasingly digital environment. Lenders must use technology wisely,
while maintaining strong risk management, data privacy and customer trust. At
SEEDS, we believe sustainable growth comes from expanding credit access
responsibly and keeping the customer at the centre of every decision. 

4.India&#039;s credit landscape is changing rapidly. What
do you believe will separate successful lenders from the rest over the next
decade? 

I believe successful lenders will be those that
balance technology with trust. While technology can improve efficiency and
reach, but customer still value relationship and reliability. 

Lenders that understand customer needs and serve
underserved markets responsibly will be best positioned for long term growth.
At SEEDS, we see sustainable lending as a combination of innovation, trust and
customer focus. 

5.There is a growing conversation around financial
inclusion, but are we truly reaching the last mile? What more needs to be done?


India has made meaningful progress in financial
inclusion through initiatives like Jan Dhan, Aadhar and Mobile Connectivity. It
has enabled the ground for financial empowerment now. We are certainly moving
closer to the last mile. However, in a country as vast and diverse as ours,
there is still significant ground to cover.

At SEEDS, we are consciously deepening our presence in
Tier 2 and Tier 3 markets and strengthening our local connect by hiring talent
from the communities we serve. 

We believe, true financial empowerment requires
localized financial solutions, customer trust and the right balance of
technology and human engagement. The opportunity is immense, and so is the
responsibility.

6.What advice would you give to aspiring entrepreneurs
looking to build businesses in the financial services sector? 

My advice to aspiring entrepreneurs is to remember
that financial services are an enabler to realize the potential of individual.
In long run you have to understand people and financial inclusion should not be
limited to numbers. Products and portfolios matter, but trust, empathy, and
integrity matter even more. Start with a vision, but remember that institutions
are built through discipline, consistency, and resilience. Use technology to
improve efficiency, but never lose the human touch. 

Most importantly, create value for your customers. In
financial services, trust is your most valuable asset, and long-term success
comes from building it consistently. At SEEDS, we strongly believe that
inclusion and profitability can go hand in hand when the intent is to create
meaningful and lasting impact.

7.AI is increasingly becoming a part of financial
services. How do you see emerging technologies shaping the future of lending?

 AI and emerging
technologies are set to make lending faster, smarter, and more efficient. They
improve credit assessment, risk management, fraud detection and customer
services.

At SEEDS, we are already leveraging AI-enabled
solutions in lead generation, customer support and collections to improve
efficiency and responsiveness. 

However, technology should complement, not replace,
human judgment. We believe the future of lending lies in combining technology
with trust and a strong human touch.

8.India is witnessing a rapid transformation in the
financial ecosystem. How do you see the role of NBFCs evolving in bridging the
country&#039;s credit gap? 

As India’s economy grows, NBFCs will have an
increasingly important role in bridging the country’s credit gap. A significant
section of the population, still lacks adequate access to formal finance. 

NBFCs have stronger local reach, and a deeper
understanding of customer needs. This allows them to serve segments that are
often overlooked by traditional lenders. 

At SEEDS, we believe the future lies in combining
technology with strong local engagement. NBFC that do this well will drive
financial empowerment and support India’s economic growth.

9.What have been some of the key milestones in Seeds
Fincap&#039;s journey so far? 

SEEDS  has
achieved several important milestones in a short period of time. 

Our cumulative disbursements have grown from ₹71 crore
in FY22 to over ₹1,600 crore in FY26, and our Assets Under Management has
crossed ₹700 crore. We have expanded our branch network from 24 to over 160
branches, significantly expanding our footprint in Tier 2, Tier 3, and rural
markets.

Today, we serve around 69,000 active clients through a
team of nearly 1,900 employees. 

We have also invested in technology and built moderate
in-house capabilities across key functions, including Business Analytics and
IT. For us, these milestones reflect not just growth, but our commitment to
delivering responsible finance. 

10.What sectors or customer segments are driving
growth for the company today? 

MSMEs continue to be the primary  growth drivers for SEEDS. We remain focused
on supporting small enterprises that create livelihoods and contribute to local
economic development. In addition, we are seeing growing opportunities in dairy
financing, climate finance (particularly rooftop solar installation) and WASH
infrastructure financing.  We are also
exploring new opportunities in EV financing and cluster-based financing for
non-agricultural livelihood sectors. At SEEDS, our focus is on providing
responsible finance that supports both economic growth and social impact. 

11.Seeds Fincap has been rapidly expanding its
footprint across rural and semi-urban India. Which new states or regions are
you targeting next, and how do you see this expansion helping small businesses
that banks usually overlook?

At SEEDS, we see significant growth opportunities in
East and South India. 

However, our expansion is never driven by geography
alone. We take a calibrated approach based on area surveys, on-ground
assessments, state-level performance indicators, and market data to better
understand local credit needs and business potential.

Our current focus is also on strengthening existing
operations. We aim to develop all our branches into full-service hub branches,
offering our complete range of loan products and serving customers more
effectively. 

Along with MSME financing, we are expanding into
climate finance, WASH infrastructure and gender-focused lending. 

SEEDS aims to provide timely finance that sustains
lives and livelihoods.

12.Looking ahead over the next few years, what is your
ultimate vision for Seeds Fincap’s role in bridging India&#039;s rural credit gap? 

Our vision is to make responsible finance accessible
to underserved communities across India. We want to support livelihoods, small
businesses and local economic growth. 

We will continue expanding our reach, strengthening
customer relationships and using technology responsibly. 

We aspire to be more than a lender. We want to be a
trusted financial partner that bridges the 
credit gap, sustains lives and livelihoods, and contributes meaningfully
to inclusive and sustainable growth. ]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[ Recognised
in the Power (Renewable) Sector for Excellence in Occupational Health &amp;
Safety Across its 4.8 GW Manufacturing Operations

Gurugram,
17 June 2026 : Saatvik Green Energy Limited, one of India&#039;s
leading integrated renewable energy companies, has been conferred the Golden
Peacock Occupational Health &amp; Safety Award 2026 in the Power (Renewable)
Sector by the Institute of Directors (IOD), India. The award is among the
country&#039;s most prestigious recognitions for corporate excellence and
acknowledges organizations that demonstrate outstanding commitment to workplace
safety, employee well-being, and continuous improvement in occupational health
and safety performance.

The
recognition reflects Saatvik&#039;s unwavering commitment to fostering a
safety-first culture across its solar PV module manufacturing operations in
Ambala, Haryana. With a large workforce comprising employees and contract
workers operating in a highly dynamic manufacturing environment, the Company
has consistently embedded safety into every aspect of its operations through
strong leadership commitment, robust governance systems, employee engagement,
and technology-enabled risk management.

Commenting
on the recognition, Mr. Prashant Mathur, CEO, Saatvik Green Energy Limited,
said: &quot;At Saatvik, safety is not a compliance
requirement or a business priority, it is a core value embedded in every
decision we make. As we continue to expand our manufacturing footprint and
contribute to India&#039;s clean energy transition, our foremost responsibility is
to ensure that every employee and contractor returns home safely each day. This
recognition reflects the collective efforts of our workforce in building a proactive
safety culture driven by leadership commitment, employee participation,
continuous learning, and technology-led risk management. From AI-enabled safety
monitoring and predictive maintenance to robust governance systems and
extensive workforce training, we are committed to setting new benchmarks in
occupational health and safety. We are honoured to receive the Golden Peacock
Occupational Health &amp; Safety Award 2026 and remain steadfast in our pursuit
of a zero-harm workplace.&quot;

Safety
at Saatvik is supported by a comprehensive Occupational Health &amp; Safety
Management System aligned with ISO 45001 standards and integrated into the
Company&#039;s overall governance framework. Occupational health and safety
performance is regularly reviewed by senior leadership and forms an integral
part of the Company&#039;s ESG governance architecture.

The
Company has adopted a technology-driven approach to workplace safety.
Digital-enabled visual inspection systems help identify manufacturing defects
that could potentially lead to electrical or fire-related risks. Real-time
video analytics monitor PPE compliance and unsafe behaviours, while predictive
maintenance systems identify equipment-related risks before they escalate into
incidents. These initiatives are further supported by structured processes such
as Hazard Identification and Risk Assessment (HIRA), Job Safety Analysis (JSA),
Permit-to-Work systems, Behaviour-Based Safety programmes, and Management of
Change protocols.

Employee
participation remains central to Saatvik&#039;s safety culture. Through safety
committees, suggestion schemes, toolbox talks, recognition programmes, and
continuous training initiatives, employees and contract workers actively
contribute to hazard identification, risk reduction, and workplace
improvements. The Company also maintains 100 percent safety training coverage
across its workforce, reinforcing competency and awareness at all
organizational levels.

Saatvik&#039;s
safety performance has delivered measurable outcomes. Over the last two years,
the Company has maintained Zero Lost Time Injuries (LTI), achieved a
significant reduction in Total Recordable Incident Rate (TRIR), reduced
incident-related downtime, and strengthened workforce capability through more
than 4,700 annual training hours. The Company has also reported zero
compensation claims, zero equipment damage incidents, and no regulatory
penalties or notices related to occupational health and safety.

The
Company&#039;s safety systems and performance have been independently validated
through ISO 45001 certification and a Bronze Medal from EcoVadis, placing the
Company among the top-performing organizations globally on ESG parameters.

The
Golden Peacock Occupational Health &amp; Safety Award is conferred annually by
the Institute of Directors (IOD), India, and is widely regarded as a benchmark
for excellence in workplace health and safety. The selection process involves a
rigorous multi-stage assessment, including independent evaluation, peer review,
and final adjudication by an eminent jury chaired by Hon&#039;ble Justice Uday U.
Lalit, Former Chief Justice of India, along with distinguished leaders from
public administration, industry, law, sustainability, and governance.

<description><![CDATA[ &quot;A
Single Donation Can Make a Life-Changing Difference&quot; Bengaluru Responds
with an Outpouring of Generosity

Bengaluru,
June 17, 2026 : In a heartfelt demonstration of community
spirit and civic responsibility, Lulu Mall Rajajinagar, Bengaluru and Msquare
Groups successfully hosted a Blood Donation Camp on June 14, 2026 World Blood
Donor Day at its South Atrium, commencing at 11:00 AM. The event witnessed an
enthusiastic response from shoppers, mall staff, and residents of Rajajinagar
and surrounding neighbourhoods, all united by a single powerful purpose: to
give the gift of life.

With
200+ units of blood collected, customers also engaged themselves with the live
band performance and evening filled with fun and entertainment. Aligned with
the global theme of World Blood Donor Day which honours voluntary, unpaid blood
donors and highlights the critical need for safe blood supplies the camp
reaffirmed Lulu Mall Bengaluru&#039;s commitment to using its platform as a force
for social good, beyond retail and commerce.

Blood
is one of the most precious resources in modern healthcare and one that cannot
be manufactured. Every two seconds, someone in India requires blood. Patients
undergoing surgeries, accident victims, mothers during childbirth, and
individuals battling chronic illnesses such as thalassaemia and cancer are
among the millions who depend on the generosity of voluntary blood donors each year.

India
faces a significant annual blood deficit, with demand consistently outpacing
supply. Voluntary blood donation especially through community-level drives such
as the one hosted at Lulu Mall Rajajinagar plays a decisive role in bridging
this critical gap and ensuring hospitals and blood banks are adequately
stocked.

The
camp was strategically positioned at the mall&#039;s North Atrium to maximise public
visibility and accessibility, allowing walk-in donors to participate
conveniently alongside their visit to the mall. A dedicated medical team
managed the donation process, ensuring the highest standards of safety,
hygiene, and donor welfare throughout the day.

The
response from Bengaluru&#039;s citizens was both heartening and inspiring. Donors
ranged across age groups from young professionals and college students to
homemakers and senior citizens all stepping forward to contribute to a cause
that transcends boundaries of community, caste, and creed. Mall staff and LuLu
Group employees also participated in large numbers, setting a spirited example
for visitors.

First-time
donors were especially welcomed and guided through the process by the medical
team on site, helping dispel myths and anxieties around blood donation, and
fostering a culture of regular, voluntary giving.

&quot;Blood
donation is an act of pure humanity one that costs nothing but a few minutes of
your time, yet can mean the difference between life and death for someone in
need. At Lulu Mall, we are proud to provide a space where our community comes
together not just to shop, but to serve. Today&#039;s overwhelming turnout is a
testament to the generous spirit of Bengaluru&#039;s people, and we are committed to
making such initiatives a regular part of our community engagement.&quot; Said Mr.
Kiran V Puthran, General Manager, Lulu Mall Bengaluru.

The
Blood Donation Camp is part of Lulu Mall Rajajinagar&#039;s ongoing calendar of
community driven initiatives. In recent months, the mall has hosted a range of
impactful events including the &#039;My Step Towards Education 2026&#039; child labour
awareness event in partnership with the Karnataka Labour Department and Sparsha
Trust, the &#039;Rooted at LuLu&#039; World Environment Day sustainability initiative
featuring the &#039;Kasa = Kaasu&#039; recycling programme, and various cultural and
wellness drives all reflecting the Group&#039;s deep-rooted belief that great retail
destinations must also be responsible community anchors.

Lulu
Mall Bengaluru continues to invite citizens, organisations, and institutions to
collaborate in creating a healthier, more compassionate city.

<description><![CDATA[ Bengaluru, India – June 17, 2026 : Alethea
Advisors, a fast-growing independent strategic transaction and corporate
advisory firm, has appointed Gyanendra N Pati (Gyan) as Chief Growth and
Marketing Officer (CGMO) and Gaurav Jain as Director, Head of M&amp;A and
Global Delivery, as the firm builds out its M&amp;A and cross-border advisory
capabilities.

Gyanendra, who brings 22 years of
experience across technology, BFSI, fintech, and global capability centres,
will lead the firm&#039;s growth strategy, brand positioning, and market expansion
in India and international markets. Gaurav, with more than two decades in
investment banking operations and M&amp;A advisory, will lead transaction
execution and the firm&#039;s offshore delivery operations across domestic and cross-border
engagements.

The appointments come as Alethea expands
beyond traditional advisory into integrated transaction execution, valuation,
IPO readiness, and global delivery — a model the firm is betting on as clients
increasingly seek execution capability alongside strategic counsel.

“The advisory industry is undergoing a
fundamental transformation. Clients today expect far more than traditional
consulting or transaction support — they seek strategic partners who can
combine execution capability, global delivery excellence, growth intelligence,
and market insight into one integrated model.” said Sumit Kumar,
Founder and Managing Director of Alethea Advisors, who was earlier associated
with Global Firms like Deloitte, KPMG, BDO &amp; Grant Thornton. “Gyan and
Gaurav bring exceptional leadership experience and complementary strengths that
significantly enhance our ability to scale globally while delivering measurable
value to clients.”

Gyan joins from a career spanning Acuity
Analytics, Moody’s, Infosys, and HP Inc., where he led global marketing
transformation and enterprise go-to-market programmes. &quot;Businesses today
want sharper guidance and execution certainty, especially as markets get more
complex,&quot; said Gyanendra N Pati as Chief Growth and Marketing
Officer. &quot;The opportunity here is to build an advisory brand that
helps organisations unlock value and scale with confidence.&quot;

Gaurav previously held leadership roles at
Moody&#039;s Corporation and Acuity Analytics, with experience across North America,
Europe, the Middle East, Africa, and Asia-Pacific. &quot;There&#039;s real
opportunity for firms that pair institutional-quality analytics with agile
execution,&quot; said Gaurav Jain as Director, Head of M&amp;A and
Global Delivery. &quot;That&#039;s especially true in cross-border and growth-market
deals, where clients need a partner across the full transaction
lifecycle.&quot;

As part of its next phase of growth,
Alethea Advisors plans to further strengthen its capabilities across
cross-border M&amp;A advisory, strategic finance, valuation services, IPO and
capital markets readiness, offshore delivery and India market-entry advisory.
The firm also continues to expand its support for founders, growth-stage
businesses, investors and corporate clients pursuing growth, transformation and
expansion opportunities.

Headquartered in Bengaluru, Alethea
Advisors serves clients across industries and markets, partnering with
corporates, founders, investors and institutions on strategic transactions,
capital initiatives and business transformation programmes.

About Alethea Advisors

Alethea Advisors is an independent
strategic transaction and corporate advisory firm providing services across
M&amp;A advisory, valuation, fundraising, financial diligence, strategic
finance, IPO readiness, India market-entry strategy and transaction support.

<description><![CDATA[ Honouring every mother and woman who have
shaped family and community through love, simplicity, and selfless devotion

Pune,
17 June 2026 : Acharya Atre Rangmandir in Pune came alive as Priyadarshani
Group of Schools, one
of Maharashtra’s leading educational institutions, dedicated to delivering
quality, affordable, and holistic education hosted ‘Jagar Stri Shakticha,
Samman Aaicha’, an event commemorating what would have been the 78th birthday
of Late Shrimati Naval Indraman Singh. The morning was equal parts tribute and
celebration: a gathering of community to honour one woman’s remarkable life
and, through it, to recognise every mother and woman who has shaped a family, a
home, and a generation through quiet strength, unconditional love, and
extraordinary grace.

Held
as part of the 78th Birth Anniversary celebrations of Late Mrs. Naval Indraman
Singh, the event brought together students, parents, educators, community
members and distinguished guests at Acharya Atre Rangmandir, Pimpri, Pune. The
event was graced by Ms Taruna Indraman Singh, Founder, Priyadarshani Group of
Schools, Managing Trustees of Priyadarshani Group of Schools, including Dr.
Rajendra Singh, Dr. Jitendra Singh, Mr. Mahendra Singh, Mr. Narendra Singh and
Ms. Sarita Singh, along with educators, community leaders, parents and
students. 

The
programme featured renowned Marathi actors and performers Kushal Badrike and
Shreya Bugade, who have earned widespread popularity through the acclaimed
comedy show ‘Chala Hawa Yeu Dya’. Their presence added a celebratory and
engaging dimension to the occasion, drawing enthusiastic responses from the
audience. Reflecting the theme ‘Jagar Stri Shakticha, Samman Aaicha’ (Celebrate
Women’s Empowerment, Honour Mothers), the event paid tribute to the invaluable
contributions of women and mothers who shape families and communities through
love, resilience and selfless dedication. 

The
programme also showcased videos highlighting the growth and vision of
Priyadarshani Group of Schools, including Bramhapriya World School in New
Kalyani Nagar, which was launched last year, and Priyadarshani Learning Womb in
Charoli, which commenced operations this year. The presentations offered
attendees a glimpse into the institution&#039;s ongoing efforts to expand access to
quality education and holistic learning experiences for young learners. 

Addressing
the gathering, Mr. Vilas Madigeri, Former Corporator, PCMC, paid tribute to the
life and values of Late Smt. Naval Indraman Singh and emphasised the importance
of recognising and honouring the contributions of women and mothers who play a
pivotal role in shaping families, communities and society. 

Dr. Rajendra Indraman
Singh, Educationist &amp; Managing Trustee, Priyadarshani Group of Schools, “What
we witnessed today was something rare: a room full of people honouring not
power, not position, but pure human warmth. That is the truest measure of a
life well lived, and by that measure, Late Smt. Naval Indraman Singh lived
extraordinarily well.”

Throughout
the event, speakers reached into their memories of Late Smt. Naval Indraman
Singh to paint a portrait of a woman defined by genuine human connection. They
recalled how she could sit with a five-year-old child and enter that world
completely, and spend the same afternoon in warm, sincere conversation with an
eighty-year-old elder. Age was never a barrier for her because she recognised
what each person was truly seeking: to feel seen, to be heard, and to know that
they mattered. She gave that without hesitation to everyone she met.

Stories
from the tribute brought back her love of feeding people and her habit of
turning every meal into an act of welcome. Her choice to travel by
autorickshaw, despite having a car and driver at her disposal, was recalled as
a quietly telling detail. It was not a sacrifice. It was a statement of values,
offered without words and without effort, because for her, remaining grounded
and connected to ordinary life was as natural as breathing.

The
gathering of more than 600 attendees, including parents, students, teachers and
community members, responded with sustained applause and the atmosphere
throughout carried something that formal events rarely achieve: a sense of
genuine feeling, of a community honouring not an institution or an office, but
a person who had made their lives better simply by being in them. 

‘Jagar
Stri Shakticha, Samman Aaicha’ closed with a feeling of collective gratitude
for a life that had touched so many and a renewed appreciation for the women
and mothers who, like Late Smt. Naval Indraman Singh, give quietly and
completely, and ask for nothing in return.

2.0 features a curated range of contemporary gold necklaces, including both
long and short designs, with each piece weighing under 15 grams. The collection
has been designed to cater to modern consumers who value lightweight jewellery
without compromising on elegance, quality, or craftsmanship.

According
to the company, the collection blends heritage-inspired artistry with
contemporary aesthetics, offering designs suited for festive occasions, family
celebrations, professional settings, and daily wear. The emphasis on
lightweight formats also aligns with the growing preference for practical and
investment-friendly jewellery purchases.

To
mark the festive period, Chandukaka Saraf Jewels has announced a flat 30%
discount on making charges on gold jewellery purchases. The offer will be
valid from 18 June to 22 June 2026 across all Chandukaka Saraf Jewels
showrooms in Maharashtra, enabling customers to make purchases during one of
the most significant periods in the traditional jewellery-buying calendar.

while staying true to the craftsmanship and heritage that define our brand.
Launching the collection during Vat Purnima and Guru Pushyamrut allows us to
offer customers jewellery that complements both the festive spirit and modern
lifestyles.”

Industry
observers note that lightweight gold jewellery has emerged as one of the
fastest-growing segments within the organised jewellery market, driven by
rising gold prices, changing lifestyle preferences, and increasing demand for
wearable designs that offer both aesthetic appeal and long-term value.

With
its contemporary styling, lightweight appeal, and festive offers, RITI 2.0 is
expected to attract customers looking for jewellery that combines tradition,
practicality, and modern elegance.

Customers
can explore the new collection and avail the festive benefits at Chandukaka
Saraf Jewels showrooms across Maharashtra during the offer period. ]]></description>

<title>Father&amp;apos;s Day Watch Gift Guide 2026: Latest Trends Under Rs 5000</title>
<link>https://en.newsbolt.in/fathers-day-watch-gift-guide-2026-latest-trends-under-rs-5000</link>
<guid>https://en.newsbolt.in/fathers-day-watch-gift-guide-2026-latest-trends-under-rs-5000</guid>
<description><![CDATA[ Forward this to someone who still hasn&#039;t figured out what to
gift their father. Father&#039;s Day 2026 is 21
June. You have days, not weeks.

There is a photograph sitting in my phone that I keep coming
back to.

My father, at a family lunch last year, glancing down at his
wrist mid-conversation. Nothing dramatic. He was just checking the time. But
that watch — a simple analog with a worn leather strap — was given to him by my
mother seventeen years ago. He has worn it almost every single day since.

He cannot tell you the movement type or the case diameter. What
he knows is who gave it to him, and why.

That is what a men&#039;s watch actually carries when it is given
with intention.

Why an Analog or
Automatic Watch Makes the Perfect Father&#039;s Day Gift

Men get ties. They get wallets. They get things they put in a
drawer.

A watch is different. It is on his wrist at 7am when he is
getting the kids ready, and at 10pm when he finally sits down. A watch from his
family is not a gift he opens once — it is something he looks at every single
day. Something he will mention, without any drama, when someone asks.

The best watches for men are not
the most expensive ones. They are the ones chosen for the specific man. This
guide covers every father type and every budget starting at Rs 4,999 — so you
leave knowing exactly what to buy.

Watch Trends for Men in 2026: Top Styles Under Rs 5000

Here is every gifting style worth considering this year, with
the father type each one fits.

1. Automatic Watch for Men

The automatic watch for men is the most searched and most gifted
category in men&#039;s watches right now. It runs on no battery, no charging, no app
— only on the movement of the wrist wearing it. The same engineering principle
has powered men&#039;s automatic wrist watches for over a century, unchanged because
it does not need to be.

The men&#039;s automatic wrist watch is made for
the father who fixed things rather than replacing them. Who taught you that
anything worth keeping requires attention. Who still owns tools from twenty
years ago because they were built right.

Sylvi&#039;s automatic watch for men collection
brings genuine mechanical movement to prices starting at Rs 4,999 — a price
point that once belonged only to imported brands. Up to 16% off this Father&#039;s
Day 2026.

Best for:
The father who values craftsmanship over convenience.

2. Skeleton Face Watch

The skeleton face watch — dial cut open to
reveal the movement working beneath — is one of the fastest-growing search
categories for watches for men in India this year. Every gear visible. Every
component turning. Nothing hidden behind a face.

For the father who spent years explaining how
engines work, how circuits connect, how systems run, a skeleton watch speaks
his language without you having to say a word.

This style used to live in the luxury watches
for men bracket only. Sylvi has brought the skeleton face watch under Rs 5,000
without sacrificing the dial transparency that makes it worth choosing. Up to
16% off through 21 June.

Best for:
The curious father. The engineer. The man who still reads the manual.

3. Analog Watch for Men 

The analog watch is having a quiet, confident
year in 2026. Men buying analog watches for men are not buying them out of
nostalgia. They are buying them because a watch that tells time clearly, looks
right in most situations, and asks nothing from the wearer is increasingly rare
— and increasingly valuable.

A clean men&#039;s watch analog from Sylvi —
readable dial, proportioned case, strap that sits properly on the wrist — works
at a job interview, a wedding, a school event, a Saturday lunch. The analog
wrist watch for men in Sylvi&#039;s Father&#039;s Day collection runs from slim dress
styles to sportier builds.

All starting at Rs 4,999. All up to 16% off,
ending 21 June.

Best for:
Any father. This is the most versatile pick in the entire guide. 

4.
Vintage Mens Wrist Watches

Thinner cases. Smaller dials. Leather or
canvas straps. Typography that references another era without announcing it.

Vintage mens wrist watches are for one
specific kind of father: the one who has dressed the same way for twenty years
because he figured it out early. Who owns good things and looks after them. Who
has never followed a trend and has never been behind one.

A vintage-inspired men&#039;s watch analog from
Sylvi matches how he already moves through the world. No update required. Up to
16% off this Father&#039;s Day.

Best for:
The father with permanent style. He will recognize it immediately.

5. Digital Watch for Men

Not every father wants a dial and two hands.
Some want the time — now, clearly, without reading anything. That is a completely
valid way to live, and an honest gift guide says so directly.

Sylvi&#039;s digital watch for men range has
improved significantly in case quality and display legibility. If your father
has worn a digital watch his whole life, do not talk him out of it. Get him a
noticeably better one — starting at Rs 4,999, up to 16% off.

Best for:
The father who has no patience for ambiguity — including on his wrist.

The First Real Watch for Your Son

Father&#039;s Day is also about watching your children grow.

The first proper men&#039;s watch a young man receives — at 16, at
graduation, when he starts his first job — is not just a watch. It is the watch
he measures every other watch against for years.

Sylvi&#039;s entry-level watch for men collection is built for
exactly this moment: clean designs that do not look like they were made for a
teenager, durable enough for daily wear, priced so the person giving it does
not have to stretch. If your son is starting out this year, a Sylvi watch is a
gift he will still have when he is your age.

Quartz vs Automatic: Which Watch Fits Your Father?

Most watches for men underRs 3,000 are quartz. That is not a
weakness.

A quartz watch keeps better time than most automatic watches,
runs on a battery, and needs almost no maintenance. For a father who wants a
watch that simply works every day without any input from him, quartz is the
practical answer.

The men&#039;s automatic wrist watch, on the other hand, is for the
father who appreciates what is inside — the movement, the engineering, the
craft of something mechanical.

The choice between quartz and automatic is not about quality. It
is about which man is wearing it. Both are in Sylvi&#039;s Father&#039;s Day 2026
collection, both under Rs 5,000, both up to 16% off through 21 June.

Stock on automatic watches and skeleton face watches moves fast
as 21 June approaches. If you are reading this now, you are in time — but only just.

Why Sylvi — and Why Made in India Matters

Sylvi is not a name that needs a foreign country behind it to
earn credibility. The brand has been designing and building watches for men in
Surat since 2015. What it has built over that decade is not just a product
range — it is a design approach that puts daily wearability above everything
else.

A Sylvi watch is not made to sit in a display case. It is made
to be on your father&#039;s wrist at 7am and at 10pm and everywhere in between.
Indian conditions. Indian wrists. A price point — starting at Rs 4,999 — that
fits the gifting decision most families are actually making.

Stop defaulting to imported names your father will not
recognize. Choose something built with the kind of craft that shows up in
everyday wear.

What a Good Watch Does After 21 June

The gifts that last are not the ones that photograph well at the
unwrapping. They are the ones still present six months later, on a regular
Tuesday afternoon, doing something small and useful.

Your father checking the time before a meeting. Glancing at his
wrist before he calls you back. Showing someone the watch when they ask, and
saying — without making anything of it — that his family gave it to him.

Your father gave you years. A watch that stays is a fair place
to start.

<title>Why Dermatology&#45;Led Sunscreens Like UV Doux Are Reshaping India’s Skincare Conversations</title>
<link>https://en.newsbolt.in/why-dermatology-led-sunscreens-like-uv-doux-are-reshaping-indias-skincare-conversations</link>
<guid>https://en.newsbolt.in/why-dermatology-led-sunscreens-like-uv-doux-are-reshaping-indias-skincare-conversations</guid>
<description><![CDATA[ Science-backed sun care is becoming central
to modern preventive skincare in India.

For a long time, sunscreen occupied a
relatively limited space in Indian skincare routines. Most consumers associated
it with summer holidays, outdoor activities, or occasional protection from
tanning. Today, that perception is steadily changing. Across urban India,
sunscreen is increasingly being viewed through the lens of preventive skincare,
skin health, and long-term wellness.

This shift is being shaped by greater
awareness around pollution, rising UV exposure, pigmentation concerns,
premature ageing, sun sensitivity, and skin barrier protection. Dermatologists
and skincare professionals have consistently highlighted the impact of everyday
environmental exposure on skin health, encouraging consumers to adopt sunscreen
as a daily habit rather than a seasonal product.

At the same time, consumers are becoming
more selective about the kind of sunscreen they use. Texture, comfort,
ingredient philosophy, makeup compatibility, and dermatological credibility now
matter as much as SPF numbers. This has created growing interest in brands that
combine scientific formulation with everyday usability.

Among the leading dermatologist-recommended
sunscreen brands driving this evolution is UV Doux, positioned as India’s No.1
Dermatologist-Recommended Sunscreen Brand*. The brand reflects a broader
movement within Indian skincare toward evidence-based, dermatologist-led
product development.

Designed for modern skincare layering and
everyday wear, UV Doux formulations are increasingly recognised for their
lightweight textures, invisible finish, no white cast experience, and
suitability across Indian climatic conditions.

IQVIA secondary sales audit – MAT (Aug
2024 – Sept 2025)

The Shift Toward Preventive Skincare

The rise of preventive skincare has become
one of the defining trends within India’s beauty and wellness industry. Younger
consumers in particular are approaching skincare with greater awareness and
consistency, often focusing on maintaining skin health over corrective
treatments alone.

Sun protection has naturally become part of
this conversation. Concerns around tanning and pigmentation continue to drive
sunscreen adoption, but awareness has expanded to include broader issues such
as photoageing, environmental stress, pollution exposure, and overall skin
maintenance.

This growing awareness is also influencing
purchasing behaviour. Consumers are increasingly looking for daily sunscreen
products that suit Indian skin tones and weather conditions while remaining
comfortable enough for everyday use.

Heavy textures, white cast, excessive
oiliness, and layering issues are becoming less acceptable to consumers who now
expect sunscreen to integrate seamlessly into modern skincare routines.

Dermatology Credibility Is Influencing
Consumer Choice

One of the noticeable changes in India’s
skincare ecosystem is the increasing role of dermatologists in shaping consumer
trust. As skincare information becomes more accessible online, many consumers
are also becoming cautious about exaggerated beauty claims and trend-driven
formulations.

This has led to stronger demand for
products associated with dermatological credibility, formulation safety, and
scientific research. Brands that focus on clinically informed development are
increasingly finding relevance among consumers seeking dependable and
skin-compatible skincare solutions.

According to Dr. Kiran Sethi, cosmetic
dermatologist, “Patients today are increasingly looking for sunscreen
formulations that are lightweight, non-greasy, and suitable for long daily wear
across Indian weather conditions. Consistency improves significantly when
sunscreens feel comfortable and blend easily into everyday skincare routines.”

UV Doux has built its identity within this
dermatology-led segment through formulations designed around both efficacy and
user experience. Its sunscreen range includes
matte and fluid textures aimed at addressing different skin preferences and
daily wear expectations.

The brand’s formulations are designed to
support a wide range of skin concerns, including oily skin, acne-prone skin,
sensitive skin, and combination skin - categories that continue to influence
sunscreen purchasing decisions among Indian consumers.

Recognised as a non-greasy sunscreen
suitable for humid weather conditions, UV Doux also focuses on cosmetic
elegance and wearability, helping support better sunscreen compliance among
consumers.

Global Research and Expanding
International Presence

The brand also draws from global formulation capabilities,
including research support from UK-based labs, reflecting the growing
intersection between international skincare science and Indian consumer needs.

Its product development philosophy is
aligned with globally benchmarked skincare standards while remaining tailored
for Indian climatic conditions and skin concerns.

Beyond India, UV Doux has expanded its
presence across 63+ countries, highlighting the growing international relevance
of Indian dermo-cosmetic innovation backed by scientific research and dermatologist-led
skincare development.

Texture and Wearability Are Driving
Modern Sunscreen Innovation

The premium sunscreen category today is
evolving beyond basic protection claims. Increasingly, consumers are evaluating
sunscreens based on how they feel on the skin and how consistently they can be
used in everyday life.

This has made texture innovation a major
focus area across the skincare industry. Lightweight finishes, breathable
formulations, invisible finish technology, and non-greasy wearability are becoming
key markers of modern sunscreen development.

The growing popularity of matte and fluid
sunscreens also reflects changing consumer lifestyles, where skincare products
are expected to perform effectively while remaining cosmetically elegant and
easy to wear throughout the day without disrupting makeup compatibility or
skincare layering routines.

The Future of Sun Care in India

India’s broader skincare market is
witnessing a visible movement toward evidence-based beauty and dermatology-led
innovation. Consumers today are paying closer attention to ingredients,
research, safety standards, and long-term skin health outcomes.

As sunscreen adoption continues to grow,
brands operating within the scientific skincare space are likely to play a
larger role in shaping how Indian consumers approach preventive skincare in the
years ahead.

In many ways, the conversation around
sunscreen is no longer only about protection from the sun. It is increasingly
becoming part of a larger shift toward informed, consistent, and health-focused
skincare habits.

<description><![CDATA[  

Gadhinglaj (Maharashtra) [India], June
2026: Strengthening its retail presence in
Maharashtra, Chandukaka Saraf Jewels has announced the inauguration of its new
Prime Store in Gadhinglaj, Kolhapur district, on June 18, 2026. The new outlet
marks the brand’s 21st showroom and reflects its continued expansion strategy
aimed at bringing premium jewellery offerings closer to customers across
emerging markets.

With a legacy spanning nearly two
centuries, Chandukaka Saraf Jewels has established itself as one of the
region’s trusted jewellery brands, known for its craftsmanship, design
innovation, and customer-centric approach. The launch of the Gadhinglaj
showroom is expected to enhance access to a wide range of gold, diamond, and
precious jewellery collections for customers in the town and neighbouring
areas.

Located at Nehru Chowk, opposite SBI Bank,
the new Prime Store has been designed to provide a modern jewellery shopping
experience, combining contemporary retail infrastructure with personalized
customer service. The showroom will showcase an extensive portfolio of
traditional and contemporary jewellery designs catering to diverse consumer
preferences and occasions.

To commemorate the inauguration, the
company has announced a series of limited-period launch offers aimed at
enhancing customer engagement during the opening week. Customers purchasing
gold jewellery can avail a flat 20% discount on making charges, while diamond
jewellery buyers will receive a flat 100% discount on making charges.

In addition, customers making purchases
worth ₹50,000 or more will become eligible for a mega lucky draw featuring
prizes such as a TVS scooter, smartphones, and gift vouchers. The promotional
campaign will run from June 18 to June 22, 2026, across the newly launched
showroom.

The company has also introduced special
benefits for participants in its jewellery savings schemes. Investors enrolled
in these schemes, as well as jewellery purchasers during the inaugural period,
will receive assured gifts as part of the celebrations.

Commenting on the expansion, Directors
Siddharth Shah and Aditya Shah said that the new showroom reflects the
company’s commitment to strengthening its customer reach while delivering a
jewellery-buying experience built on trust, transparency, quality, and
innovation. They noted that the brand remains focused on offering customers a
wide selection of jewellery backed by superior craftsmanship and service
excellence.

The launch comes amid continued growth in
demand for organised jewellery retail in Tier-II and Tier-III markets, where
consumers are increasingly seeking branded jewellery backed by quality assurance
and transparent pricing practices. Industry trends indicate that expanding
retail networks and localized customer engagement initiatives are becoming key
growth drivers for established jewellery brands.

Customers can explore the new collection
and avail the festive benefits at Chandukaka Saraf Jewels showrooms across
Maharashtra and Karnataka during the offer period.

With the inauguration of its Gadhinglaj
Prime Store, Chandukaka Saraf Jewels aims to further deepen its connection with
customers in western Maharashtra while reinforcing its position in the region’s
evolving jewellery retail landscape.

<title>Cothas Coffee Co. Wins the Legacy Continuity Award at the FKCCI MSME Excellence Awards 2026</title>

<description><![CDATA[  

77 years. One family. One obsession. One
cup. — South India’s most loved filter coffee house is honoured for three
generations of unbroken craft, from a single blend in 1949 to homes, stores and
tables across the world.

National, 16th June, 2026: Cothas
Coffee Co., the Bengaluru-rooted filter coffee house that has been part
of South India’s mornings since 1949, has been awarded the Legacy Continuity
Award at the FKCCI MSME Excellence Awards 2026. The honour
celebrates a rare achievement in Indian enterprise — three generations of
unbroken craft, carried forward without ever losing the taste, warmth and trust
that founder Sri Krishnaiah Chetty built the name on more than seven decades
ago.

The award was presented by the Union
Minister of State for MSME Smt. Shobha Karandlaje and former Karnataka
Deputy Chief Minister Dr. C.N. Ashwath Narayan at the FKCCI MSME Excellence
Awards 2026 — Industry’s flagship platform recognising the state’s most
distinguished micro, small and medium enterprises.

Cothas Coffee Co. began in 1949, when Sri
Krishnaiah Chetty set out to make a filter coffee so consistent that families
would come to know it by its aroma alone. Seventy-seven years on, that promise
is kept the same way it always has been — with beans sourced from the estates
of Kodagu and Chikmagalur, the heart of Karnataka’s coffee country, and roasted
and blended at the company’s 1,00,000 sq ft manufacturing facility in Jigani,
on the outskirts of Bengaluru.

Today, Cothas Coffee Co. serves customers
through more than 75 company-owned (COCO) stores, general and
modern trade, quick commerce and its own retail network, with a product range
spanning filter coffee powder, decoctions, instant coffee and cold beverages.
Its Liqcaf vending machine business brings freshly brewed coffee,
extending the brand into the everyday spaces where people pause for a cup.

“When Sri Krishnaiah Chetty founded
Cothas Coffee Co. in 1949, his idea was  simple— an honest cup of filter
coffee, made with care and offered with warmth. Seventy-seven years and three
generations later, that idea is still what gets us going. We are deeply
honoured by the Legacy Continuity Award, but we do not see it as ours alone. It
belongs to our founder, to the growers in Kodagu and Chikmagalur who have stood
with us for decades, and above all to the millions of families who have made
Cothas a part of their daily ritual. Their trust is the real legacy we are
continuing,” said Mr. C.K. Sreenathan,
Chairman, Cothas Coffee Co.

“Inheriting a 77-year-old name teaches
you that tradition is not preserved by keeping it under glass — it stays alive
only when it stays relevant. The filter coffee in the cup is exactly what it
has always been. What has changed is how we put it in your hands: a fresh pack
delivered through quick commerce in minutes, a familiar taste reaching an
Indian household in Toronto or Dubai, a freshly brewed cup from a Liqcaf
machine in between office meetings or a cold beverage that carries the same
Cothas soul in a form the next generation reaches for. Honouring where we come
from while meeting the next generation where they are — that is the balance
this award recognises, and the one we hold ourselves to,” said Mr. C.S. Nitin, Managing Partner, Cothas Coffee
Co., (representing the third generation of the family business.)

The brand carries the taste of South India
well beyond its shores. Cothas Coffee Co. exports to the United States, Canada,
Australia, New Zealand, Singapore, the UAE and Malaysia, keeping the global
Indian diaspora connected to a flavour that, for many, simply tastes like home.
For Cothas Coffee Co., the Legacy Continuity Award is not just a recognition
but a reminder to keep three generations of craft alive in every cup, for the
generations still to be served.

<description><![CDATA[  

Nainital, Uttarakhand : Nainital-based
singer and devotee Narendra Kumar has released a devotional bhajan titled “Dil
Main Hai Sabke,” paying tribute to the revered spiritual master Neeb Karori
Baba, whose teachings continue to inspire millions of followers across India
and around the world.

 

Released on YouTube, the bhajan reflects
the values of love, compassion, devotion, and selfless service that are closely
associated with Baba&#039;s teachings. Through its lyrics and devotional
composition, the song conveys a message of universal love and spiritual unity.

 

Neeb Karori Baba&#039;s influence extends far
beyond India. His ashram at Kainchi Dham in Uttarakhand has become a globally
recognized spiritual destination, attracting devotees and seekers from across
the world. Over the years, the saint&#039;s legacy has drawn international attention
through its association with prominent figures such as Steve Jobs and Mark
Zuckerberg, both of whom have spoken about the significance of Kainchi Dham in
their spiritual journeys.

 

Speaking about the release, Narendra Kumar
said, &quot;‘Dil Main Hai Sabke’ is my humble offering at the sacred feet of
Baba. His teachings remind us that love and service are universal values that
connect people beyond all boundaries. Through this bhajan, I hope listeners
experience the peace, faith, and compassion that continue to inspire millions
of devotees.&quot;

 

The release follows the recent Foundation
Day celebrations of Neeb Karori Baba, during which thousands of devotees
gathered at Kainchi Dham and other associated centres to pay tribute to the
revered saint.

 

With “Dil Main Hai Sabke,” Narendra Kumar
aims to share Baba&#039;s timeless message with a wider audience through the medium
of music while contributing to the preservation of India&#039;s rich spiritual and
cultural heritage.

 

The bhajan is now available on YouTube.

<title>TourGrids Launches Free Travel Leads Platform to Empower Travel Agencies Across India</title>
<link>https://en.newsbolt.in/tourgrids-launches-free-travel-leads-platform-to-empower-travel-agencies-across-india</link>
<guid>https://en.newsbolt.in/tourgrids-launches-free-travel-leads-platform-to-empower-travel-agencies-across-india</guid>
<description><![CDATA[ India : TourGrids today announced the launch of a free travel
leads platform designed to connect travel agencies across India with genuine,
ready-to-book customers. The new marketplace gives agencies of every size
direct access to verified travel inquiries at no cost, removing one of the
biggest barriers to growth in the travel industry.

About TourGrids

TourGrids is a technology-driven travel company on a
mission to make customer acquisition simple, transparent, and affordable for
travel businesses. By bridging the gap between travelers seeking trusted
experts and agencies seeking new clients, TourGrids aims to become India&#039;s
go-to destination for high-quality travel agency leads.

How the Free Travel
Leads Platform Works

The platform enables travel agencies to sign up, create
a profile, and, upon verification, start receiving travel leads tailored to
their services. Once onboarded, agencies gain access to a steady stream of
travel inquiries, including domestic holidays, family vacations, international
tours, honeymoons, and group travel packages.

Each lead represents a real customer actively looking to
plan a trip, helping agencies focus their time on conversions rather than cold
outreach. The marketplace is built to match the right inquiries with the right
agencies, ensuring relevance and improving the likelihood of successful
bookings. With no subscription fees or hidden charges, agencies can scale their
pipeline of free travel leads without upfront financial risk.

Solving an Expensive
Industry Problem

Lead acquisition has long been a costly challenge for
travel agencies. Many businesses spend heavily on digital advertising,
third-party portals, and pay-per-lead services—often paying significant sums
for leads that may never convert. Smaller agencies, in particular, struggle to
compete against larger players with bigger marketing budgets.

TourGrids addresses this pain point head-on by offering
travel leads completely free of cost. This levels the playing field, enabling
independent agents and established agencies alike to grow their customer base
without draining their marketing spend.

Leadership
Perspective

&quot;Travel agencies shouldn&#039;t have to choose between
expensive marketing and business growth,&quot; said a TourGrids spokesperson.
&quot;Our free travel leads platform was built to remove that burden entirely,
so agencies can focus on what they do best—creating unforgettable journeys for
their customers.&quot;

&quot;We believe access to quality travel inquiries
should be open to everyone in the industry,&quot; the spokesperson added.
&quot;By making travel agency leads free, we&#039;re helping thousands of agencies
across India unlock new opportunities.&quot;

Get Started Today

Travel agencies interested in receiving free travel
leads can sign up now and begin connecting with potential customers right away.
To learn more or register, visit:

•          
https://tourgrids.com/travel-leads

•

With its commitment to transparency, affordability, and
meaningful connections, TourGrids is poised to transform how travel agencies
across India find and serve their customers. ]]></description>

<title>Manba Finance Expands Its Footprint in Southern India, Enters into Strategic Partnership with Sreesastha (Nammaloan)</title>
<link>https://en.newsbolt.in/manba-finance-expands-its-footprint-in-southern-india-enters-into-strategic-partnership-with-sreesastha-nammaloan</link>
<guid>https://en.newsbolt.in/manba-finance-expands-its-footprint-in-southern-india-enters-into-strategic-partnership-with-sreesastha-nammaloan</guid>
<description><![CDATA[  Manish
Shah, Managing Director, Manba Finance Limited

Karnataka and Tamil Nadu to lead the entry this financial
year, ahead of a phased expansion across other South Indian states — powered by
a leadership team carrying over 100 years of combined automobile-lending
experience

Mumbai, 16th June, 2026 : Manba Finance Limited, one of India’s established
vehicle-financing NBFCs, today announced its entry into the South Indian market
through a strategic partnership with Sreesastha (Nammaloan). The
partnership marks a significant milestone in Manba’s national growth journey
and lays the foundation for a phased expansion across all South Indian states
in the period ahead.

The collaboration will begin in Karnataka, followed
by Tamil Nadu within the current financial year, with a phased entry
into other South Indian states planned thereafter. As part of this effort, the
partnership has identified over 100 potential locations across these
regions, which it intends to activate progressively in the coming periods in
line with market readiness and operational priorities.

What distinguishes this partnership is the depth of
expertise behind it. The venture is led by a core team of four senior leaders
who together bring more than 100 years of combined experience in automobile
lending spanning origination, credit, collections, and on-ground
distribution across the vehicle-finance value chain.

This concentration of domain knowledge is intended to give
the South India business a running start: local market understanding,
established dealer and ecosystem relationships, and a disciplined credit
culture from day one.

The partnership will offer Manba’s range of vehicle-finance
products in the region, with a sequenced launch beginning with the company’s
core strengths:

●     
New two-wheeler loans

●     
Used two-wheeler loans

●     
Three-wheeler loans

●     
Used car loans

The phased
approach starting with Karnataka and Tamil Nadu and a focused product set, then
widening both geography and offering over time is intended to build the
business on a foundation of sound underwriting and operational readiness rather
than speed alone.

Underpinning the offering is the customer experience Manba
is known for. The company’s lending platform is designed to deliver in-principle
approvals in as little as one minute and a fully digital, paperless
customer journey from application through documentation to disbursal.

For South India’s customers and dealer partners alike, this
means faster decisions, less friction, and a financing experience that keeps
pace with the point of sale a meaningful differentiator in a market where speed
and convenience increasingly decide where business goes.

Commenting on this Manish
Shah, Managing Director, Manba Finance Limited said “South India is one of
the most dynamic vehicle markets in the country, and entering it the right way
matters more to us than entering it quickly. Partnering with Sreesastha (Namma
loan) gives us something money can’t buy on its own a team that has financed
vehicles in these markets for decades. That experience, combined with Manba’s
products, balance sheet, and technology, is what gives us confidence in this
expansion.” 

Monil Shah, Chief Business Officer &amp; Executive Director,
Manba Finance Limited said “This is a big step for Manba, and we intend to
do it with discipline. We are starting in Karnataka with the products we know
best, and we will expand state by state as we earn the right to. Our focus is
on building a durable, well-underwritten book in the South not a quick one.” 

V Gopalakrishnan, Director, Sreesastha Ins-Corp Advisory
Private Ltd (Nammaloan) told “We are delighted to associate with Manba
Finance, a leader known for its robust product suite and customer-first
approach. This strategic tie-up aligns perfectly with our vision of bridging
the gap between quality financial products and underserved customers in South
India. Our team’s decades of hands-on experience in tech enabled retail finance
distribution will help accelerate high quality disbursements while upholding
the highest standards of service and compliance. Together, we aim to empower
individuals and businesses with reliable credit solutions that drive growth and
financial inclusion.”

<title>BiteSpeed Partners with Razorpay to Launch Unified AI Conversion and Retention Stack for D2C Brands</title>
<link>https://en.newsbolt.in/bitespeed-partners-with-razorpay-to-launch-unified-ai-conversion-and-retention-stack-for-d2c-brands</link>
<guid>https://en.newsbolt.in/bitespeed-partners-with-razorpay-to-launch-unified-ai-conversion-and-retention-stack-for-d2c-brands</guid>
<description><![CDATA[  BiteSpeed and
Razorpay Company Logos

The partnership brings together
BiteSpeed’s AI-powered customer engagement platform with Razorpay&#039;s
high-converting one-click checkout experience, enabling D2C brands to drive
higher conversions, reduce drop-offs, and maximise customer lifetime value.

Bengaluru, India — BiteSpeed has partnered
with Razorpay to bring a unified conversion and retention stack to D2C brands,
combining AI CRM and one-click checkout capabilities to enable seamless
cross-channel commerce journeys. 

The partnership combines BiteSpeed&#039;s
AI-powered engagement platform with Razorpay Magic Checkout&#039;s one-click
checkout experience and conversion capabilities, enabling brands to build
high-converting customer journeys across Web, WhatsApp, SMS, Email and Voice.
By connecting customer engagement, payments, and retention into a single
experience, brands can recover lost sales by upto 15%, drive repeat purchases,
and maximise customer lifetime value.

Leading D2C brands, including Comet, Nish
Hair &amp; Safari Bags, are already leveraging the integrated experience to
improve conversions by an average of 10%, reduce checkout friction, and deliver
more personalised customer journeys.

&quot;Checkout today is much more than a
payment layer; it&#039;s becoming one of the most important conversion and retention
touchpoints for D2C brands,&quot; said
Vinayak Aggarwal, CEO, BiteSpeed. &quot;Brands increasingly want
the freedom to choose category-leading products without creating fragmented
customer experiences. Through this partnership, we&#039;re bringing together
best-in-class checkout and customer engagement capabilities in a seamless
experience that helps brands convert, retain, and grow customers more
effectively.&quot;

What makes this partnership uniquely
valuable is the combination of intelligence, trust, compliance, and conversion
across the entire customer journey. Unlike fragmented setups that stitch
together separate checkout and payment providers, Razorpay offers unified
checkout and payments infrastructure — pairing its understanding of shopper
behaviour across millions of payment interactions with BiteSpeed&#039;s precision
targeting and engagement, for richer insights, fewer integration dependencies,
and a smoother path from intent to purchase.

The stack is built on a consent-first
foundation aligned with India&#039;s Digital Personal Data Protection (DPDP) Act,
enabling brands to personalise responsibly. As a regulated payments entity,
Razorpay brings security and compliance by design, while trust signals — the
Trusted Badge, Order Milestone Badge, Money Back Promise, and Login with
Razorpay&#039;s consent-led authentication — help shoppers buy with greater
confidence. Together, these capabilities help brands convert more customers
while building lasting trust.

Khilan Haria, CPO, Razorpay, said, “At Razorpay, we&#039;re focused on helping brands improve the
customer journey through seamless and trusted commerce experiences. Through
partnerships with leading commerce enablement platforms such as BiteSpeed,
we&#039;re extending the value merchants can derive from our checkout and payments
offerings. By bringing together checkout, payments, and customer engagement
capabilities, we&#039;re helping D2C brands drive better conversions, improve
retention, and create more connected customer experiences.”

The partnership comes at a time when D2C
brands are increasingly investing in owned channels, retention infrastructure,
and conversion optimisation as customer acquisition costs continue to rise.
With several more brands expected to come on board, the partnership is poised
to become the default agentic commerce stack for India&#039;s fastest-growing D2C
brands. ]]></description>

Chandigarh is
witnessing a growing culture of disciplined investing, driven by a new
generation of Mutual Fund Distributors who are helping families build long-term
financial security. Backed by NJ Wealth’s technology-driven platform, research
capabilities, training ecosystem, and partner-first approach, professionals
from diverse backgrounds have successfully built thriving practices while
creating meaningful impact in the lives of investors. Their journeys
demonstrate how the right support system can transform ambition into
achievement.

The stories of Punita
Sharma, Pradeep Kumar, Kapil Garg, and Chandra Veshu reflect this
transformation. Coming from varied professional backgrounds, each has leveraged
NJ Wealth’s robust digital infrastructure, learning opportunities, and
client-centric approach to build trust, scale their practice, and help
investors achieve important life goals. Together, they manage hundreds of
crores in assets, serve thousands of families, and continue to strengthen
Chandigarh’s position as a growing hub of financial awareness and wealth
creation. Their success is a testament to the power of perseverance, continuous
learning, and a shared commitment to helping investors create a better
financial future.

Punita Sharma: A Woman
Redefining Financial Confidence With NJ Wealth’s Technology

With an AUM
of ₹72 crore, a monthly SIP book of ₹72 lakh, and over 700 client families,
Punita Sharma has emerged as one of Chandigarh’s inspiring NJ Wealth Partners.
Her journey reflects determination, family support, and the transformative role
of NJ Wealth’s technology-driven ecosystem.

Coming from
a non-finance background, Punita initially had limited understanding of mutual
funds and SIPs. Encouraged by her husband, she decided to explore the
profession and gradually stepped into the world of investments with confidence
and dedication.

Her
association with NJ Wealth became the turning point in her journey. Through its
advanced digital platform, paperless onboarding, automated transactions,
real-time portfolio tracking, E-Wealth services, and intelligent reporting
tools, NJ Wealth simplified operations and made client servicing seamless. The
technology eliminated manual hurdles and allowed Punita to focus on
understanding client needs and building long-term relationships.

Today,
Punita is known for her sincerity, clarity, and ability to simplify financial
decisions for families. Several of her clients have fulfilled important life
goals such as purchasing homes, funding children’s education, and planning comfortable
retirements through disciplined investing and systematic withdrawal planning.

With NJ
Wealth’s robust technology and her family’s constant support, Punita Sharma
continues to create meaningful financial impact, empowering families to build a
secure future with confidence.

From Uncertainty to Excellence: NJ Wealth’s Support Fuels Pradeep
Kumar’s 700+ Client Journey

Pradeep
Kumar’s journey from an LIC consultant to a trusted NJ Wealth Partner reflects
resilience, adaptability, and a strong commitment to client-focused wealth
creation. Today, he manages ₹60 crore in AUM, serves over 700 clients, and has
built a growing monthly SIP book of ₹74 lakh.

Pradeep
began his career with LIC in the early 2000s, initially part-time before moving
into the profession full-time. In 2013, when traditional LIC methods underwent
major changes, he saw an opportunity to guide clients toward diversified
investment solutions through mutual funds. In January 2014, he joined NJ
Wealth, a decision he describes as transformational.

“I consider
myself fortunate. NJ Wealth came into my life at the right time with the right
guidance,” says Pradeep. With NJ Wealth’s structured systems, research support,
and mentorship, he smoothly transitioned into the investment space. Such was
the trust of his clients that nearly 90% continued their journey with him.

NJ Wealth’s
technology-driven ecosystem further accelerated his growth. From paperless
onboarding and digital transactions to real-time dashboards and remote
servicing, the platform enabled seamless client management, even during the
COVID-19 lockdown.

For
Pradeep, the biggest satisfaction comes from helping families achieve
milestones like children’s education, home ownership, and retirement security.
His message to aspiring professionals remains simple: “Patience is the real
compounding.”

A Conversation That Sparked Kapil Garg’s Journey into Shaping
Financial Futures with NJ Wealth

What began
as a simple conversation at his family’s department store evolved into a
remarkable 17-year journey in financial services. Today, Chandigarh-based NJ
Wealth Partner Kapil Garg manages an AUM of ₹110 crore, a live SIP book of ₹96
lakh, and serves more than 700 clients across India and overseas.

Kapil’s
entry into the profession was unplanned. After graduation, he met an NJ Wealth
Partner who encouraged him to clear the AMFI exam in 2007. While he later
pursued an MBA, worked briefly with ICICI Lombard, and supported his family
business, the idea of building a career in financial services stayed with him.

In 2012, he
launched Garg Financial Services, initially focusing on insurance. At the time,
his mutual fund AUM stood at just ₹40 lakh. Recognizing the long-term value
mutual funds could create for investors, he committed himself to learning and
growing in the profession. Over the years, his AUM grew to ₹110 crore through
disciplined efforts, continuous learning, and client trust.

Kapil
credits NJ Wealth’s technology platform for enabling seamless onboarding,
transactions, KYC, and portfolio reviews, helping him serve clients across
India and internationally.

“What
motivates me most is helping families achieve their goals,” says Kapil. “There
is no greater satisfaction than seeing clients succeed because of disciplined
investing.”

From Engineer to Wealth Guide: How a Young MFD Is Building Futures and
5,000 Crorepatis with NJ Wealth

In a short
span of time, Chandigarh-based Mutual Fund Distributor Chandra Veshu has built
an impressive practice with ₹50 crore in AUM, over 400 clients, and a monthly
SIP book exceeding ₹1 crore. His journey is one of reinvention, ambition, and a
commitment to helping investors create long-term wealth.

An
electronics and communication engineer from Thapar College, Chandra began his
career with companies such as Wipro, Zscaler, and British Telecom as a network
security engineer. He later moved into the insurance sector with LIC and PNB
MetLife while also completing an MBA in Investment and Corporate Banking from
Symbiosis. His growing interest in wealth creation led him to enter the mutual
fund profession in 2019, with full-time focus beginning in 2021.

Chandra
credits NJ Wealth’s structured training, learning ecosystem, and partner
network for helping him scale his practice. Inspired by successful peers, he
set an ambitious goal of overseeing ₹5,000 crore in AUM and creating 5,000
crorepati investors.

Known for
his need-based approach, he serves both retail and HNI clients alike. One of
his proudest moments was seeing a tea seller build a home through disciplined
investing. For Chandra, this profession is not about transactions—it is about
transforming lives. ]]></description>

<title>ZAKH: Building a Modern Fashion Brand with Entrepreneurial Strength and Customer&#45;First Vision</title>
<link>https://en.newsbolt.in/zakh-building-a-modern-fashion-brand-with-entrepreneurial-strength-and-customer-first-vision</link>
<guid>https://en.newsbolt.in/zakh-building-a-modern-fashion-brand-with-entrepreneurial-strength-and-customer-first-vision</guid>
<description><![CDATA[ The Indian fashion industry continues to
evolve rapidly, driven by changing consumer preferences, digital commerce, and
the growing demand for affordable yet stylish apparel. Amid this
transformation, ZAKH has emerged as
a promising new entrant with a clear vision of making contemporary fashion
accessible to a wider audience. Founded in September 2025 and operational since
April 2026, the Delhi-based brand is steadily building its presence in the
highly competitive fashion market through a combination of entrepreneurial
expertise, customer understanding, and operational efficiency. Through its
online platform, www.zakh.in, the company is creating a seamless shopping
experience for consumers seeking trend-driven fashion at accessible price
points.

What makes ZAKH’s journey particularly
interesting is the diverse professional background of its founders. The company
was established by four brothers, each bringing experience from different
industries, including banking, information technology, manufacturing, and
wholesale fast fashion. This blend of expertise has helped create a strong
foundation for the business, allowing it to approach fashion retail from
multiple perspectives. While banking experience contributes to financial
discipline and strategic planning, knowledge from the technology sector
supports digital growth and customer engagement. Manufacturing insights help
streamline operations, while experience in wholesale fashion provides a deep
understanding of sourcing, pricing, and market trends.

The idea behind ZAKH was born from a simple observation.
Fashion-conscious consumers increasingly seek trendy and high-quality apparel,
yet many struggle to find products that strike the right balance between
affordability and style. Recognising this gap, the founders envisioned a brand
that could deliver fashionable clothing while maintaining competitive pricing
and a seamless shopping experience. Their goal was not merely to sell garments
but to create a brand that resonates with the aspirations and lifestyles of
modern Indian consumers.

Since commencing operations in April 2026,
ZAKH has demonstrated encouraging momentum. Within its very first month, the
company successfully fulfilled more than 200 orders, a significant achievement
for a newly launched fashion venture. More importantly, this early success
reflected strong market acceptance and validated the founders’ belief in their
business model. As customer awareness has grown, order volumes have continued
to increase, indicating a positive response from consumers and strengthening
confidence in the brand’s long-term potential.

A key factor behind ZAKH’s growth is its
commitment to understanding customer preferences. Fashion trends evolve
quickly, and consumers today expect brands to remain relevant, responsive, and
innovative. By closely monitoring market trends and customer feedback, ZAKH
aims to ensure that its collections remain aligned with evolving tastes and
expectations. This customer-centric approach enables the company to adapt
quickly while maintaining consistency in quality and service.

Operating in the digital era has also
allowed ZAKH to embrace a direct-to-consumer approach. This model not only
improves accessibility but also allows the company to gather valuable insights
into consumer behaviour, helping it make informed decisions regarding product
development and inventory planning. By leveraging technology and digital
engagement, the company is working towards creating a more personalised and
convenient shopping experience for its growing customer base.

The founders believe that sustainable
growth requires more than just strong sales numbers. It demands a clear vision,
disciplined execution, and the ability to build lasting relationships with
customers. As a result, ZAKH continues to focus on strengthening its
operational capabilities, expanding its product offerings, and enhancing customer
satisfaction. Every stage of the business, from sourcing and merchandising to
fulfilment and support, is guided by a commitment to delivering value.

Looking ahead, ZAKH aims to establish
itself as a trusted fashion destination for consumers seeking quality,
affordability, and contemporary design. While still in the early stages of its
journey, the company has already demonstrated the entrepreneurial spirit and
adaptability needed to succeed in today’s dynamic retail environment. Backed by
the collective experience of its founders and driven by a clear understanding
of market needs, ZAKH is positioning itself as a brand with the potential to
make a meaningful impact on India’s fashion ecosystem. As it continues to
expand its reach and strengthen its market presence, the company remains
committed to its vision of delivering accessible fashion to customers across
the country through www.zakh.in.

As the company continues to grow, its story
serves as an example of how diverse expertise, a shared vision, and a strong
customer focus can come together to create a modern fashion brand built for the
future. ]]></description>

<title>iCreate and Hauts&#45;de&#45;France Announce Bilateral Deep Tech Innovation Corridor to Accelerate India&#45;France Startup Collaboration</title>
<link>https://en.newsbolt.in/icreate-and-hauts-de-france-announce-bilateral-deep-tech-innovation-corridor-to-accelerate-india-france-startup-collaboration</link>
<guid>https://en.newsbolt.in/icreate-and-hauts-de-france-announce-bilateral-deep-tech-innovation-corridor-to-accelerate-india-france-startup-collaboration</guid>
<description><![CDATA[ Nice,
France | June 15, 2026 :  iCreate,
India&#039;s leading deep tech startup incubator, has signed a Memorandum of
Understanding (MoU) with the Hauts-de-France Regional Council to establish the
India–Hauts-de-France Bilateral Corridor for Deep Tech Innovation, creating a
direct pathway for startup collaboration, market access, pilot deployments, and
technology commercialisation between the two regions.

The
partnership was announced in Nice at Bharat Innovates 2026, the Government of
India&#039;s flagship innovation initiative, being jointly inaugurated by Prime
Minister Narendra Modi and President Emmanuel Macron on June 14, 2026. The MoU
forms part of a broader set of India–France institutional agreements being
concluded at the summit.

Focused
on sectors such as HealthTech, ClimateTech, AgriTech, FoodTech, e-Mobility,
Aerospace and Defence, and Physical AI and Deep Tech Systems, the corridor will
enable startups from both regions to access new markets, industry partnerships,
research collaborations, and pilot opportunities. The initiative aims to accelerate
innovation adoption, strengthen supply-chain resilience, and unlock co-funded
investment opportunities across strategic sectors.

Over
the next 18 months, the partnership aims to support more than 12 startups in
pursuing cross-border expansion, facilitate at least three joint pilot
deployments across Indian and European markets, and launch the first bilateral
startup cohort comprising innovators from both ecosystems.

A
key differentiator of the corridor is its implementation-led structure. While
iCreate and the Hauts-de-France Regional Council are the principal partners,
execution will be supported by EuraTechnologies, one of Europe&#039;s leading
startup and innovation hubs, and Nord France Invest, the region&#039;s investment
promotion agency. A Joint Steering Committee comprising representatives from
both sides will oversee implementation and drive measurable outcomes.

Speaking
on the occasion Mr. Avinash
Punekar, CEO, iCreate said, “As
India and France deepen their collaboration in technology and innovation, there
is a unique opportunity to connect talent, research, and entrepreneurship
across borders. This corridor is more than a partnership; it is a platform to
help deep tech startups access global markets, forge meaningful industry
collaborations, and accelerate the journey from innovation to impact. We
believe it will empower entrepreneurs from both ecosystems to solve global
challenges and build globally competitive ventures.&quot;

François
Decoster, Regional Vice-President, Hauts-de-France, said, &quot;Hauts-de-France
has built a strong ecosystem for deep tech innovation, backed by world-class
research, industrial capabilities, and investment networks. Through this
partnership with iCreate, we are creating new opportunities for startups from
both regions to collaborate, scale internationally, and accelerate the
commercialisation of cutting-edge technologies. We believe this corridor can
serve as a model for future innovation partnerships between France and
India.&quot;

The
partnership combines Hauts-de-France&#039;s strengths in research, industry,
investment, and European market access with iCreate&#039;s deep tech ecosystem and
India’s manufacturing prowess, creating a powerful platform for startups to
innovate, collaborate, and scale across global markets.

The
initiative builds on iCreate&#039;s proven track record of supporting deep tech
startups across mobility, energy, healthcare, aerospace, defence, artificial
intelligence, and advanced manufacturing. Some notable startups supported by
iCreate include ChargeZone, Clean Electric, Integra Robotics, Vijigi, Naxatra
Labs, BioScan, Biokraft, and Zero Drag. In addition, through its
partnership-led initiatives, iCreate has also enabled high-potential ventures such
as Carbonstrong Technologies, Green Aero Propulsion, and Urjanovac, which were
recognised under the AVAANA–Startup India–NITI Aayog AIM Grand Challenge for
Frontier Tech Innovation. Together, these ventures reflect the quality,
diversity, and global potential of India&#039;s deep tech ecosystem, demonstrating
how strategic support, industry partnerships, and innovation-led programs can
help startups compete, collaborate, and scale in international markets.

The
India–Hauts-de-France corridor is the first bilateral deep tech partnership
between an Indian incubator and a French region. The collaboration is expected
to serve as a scalable model for future India-Europe innovation partnerships,
enabling startups, researchers, investors, and industry leaders to collaborate
across borders and accelerate the global growth of emerging technologies.

<description><![CDATA[ From Chalky to Chic: The Mineral Sunscreen Upgrade. For too long, mineral
sunscreen has felt like a compromise; the safety of physical blockers traded
for a chalky residue and a heavy, mask-like finish.

Sunkey
Skincare challenges that narrative, proving that mineral protection can deliver
both clinical performance and elevated sensorial experience. By bridging the
gap between efficacy and elegance, Sunkey is redefining what modern, everyday
sun protection should feel like.

1. The High-Performance Shield: Mineral Sunscreen SPF 50 PA++++

At
the core of Sunkey’s innovation is its Mineral Sunscreen SPF 50 PA++++,
engineered specifically for Indian skin needs and environmental conditions. Unlike
traditional mineral sunscreens that sit heavily on the skin, Sunkey utilises
advanced non nano oxide dispersion technology sourced from leading laboratories
in Korea and Europe, enabling seamless blendability across skin tones.

Key Highlights:

•
The Finish: A refined moist matte texture that visibly blurs pores without
clogging them

•
The Feel: Lightweight, breathable, and doubles as a smooth primer base

•
The Science: Broad spectrum SPF 50 PA++++ protection against UVA, UVB, and blue
light without any white cast
This is mineral sunscreen reimagined, delivering high performance protection
with a cosmetically elegant finish.

2. The Pediatrician Approved Essential: No Tan Baby Mineral Sunscreen SPF
43 PA+++

Sunkey
extends its philosophy of safe, effective sun care to its most sensitive users
with the No Tan Baby Mineral Sunscreen SPF 43 PA+++. Developed with a
paediatric first approach, this formulation prioritises barrier protection,
skin comfort, and long term safety.

Key Highlights:

•
Botanical Care: Enriched with Olive Squalane and Oatmeal Extract to deeply
moisturise and calm delicate, reactive skin

•
Advanced Protection: Broad spectrum UVA, UVB, and infrared heat protection,
essential for India’s harsh climate

•
Safety Assurance: Formulated in accordance with Australian UV filter standards,
among the most stringent globally

•
Gentle Formulation: 100% mineral, fragrance free, and designed for babies,
toddlers, and highly sensitive skin

A
sunscreen designed not just to protect, but to actively support and soothe
developing skin.

Why Sunkey is the Modern Choice

Every
Sunkey formulation is built on a foundation of transparency, safety, and skin
first innovation, without unnecessary additives or compromises.

What sets Sunkey apart:

•
Pregnancy and Breastfeeding Safe: Non nano mineral filters that remain on the
skin’s surface

•
Antioxidant Rich Formulations: Powered by Jeju and Tomato extracts to combat environmental
stressors

•
Dermatologist Tested: Developed with expert guidance for real world skin
concerns

•
Fragrance Free Philosophy: No added fragrances, reducing risk of irritation or
sensitisation 

Sunkey
does not just protect the skin, it enhances its resilience over time.

The Complete Routine

While
mineral sunscreens provide superior protection, proper removal is essential. Use
the Sunkey cleansing oil to effectively dissolve mineral filters, excess oil,
and impurities at the end of the day, ensuring skin remains balanced, clean,
and healthy.

<title>BCBA to Host India Logistics Conclave 2026 at The Taj Mahal Palace, Mumbai</title>

<description><![CDATA[  

On
17 June 2026, government, ports, customs and industry leadership will convene
under the theme “One Fraternity, One Vision — Logistics Driving India Towards
Viksit Bharat”

The
Brihanmumbai Custom Brokers&#039; Association (BCBA) : the apex body of the customs-broking fraternity in Mumbai — will host the
second edition of its flagship policy forum, the India Logistics Conclave
2026, on 17 June 2026 at The Taj Mahal Palace, Mumbai. Building on
the success of the inaugural 2024 edition, which drew more than 550
stakeholders from across government, trade and industry, this year&#039;s Conclave
will convene senior policymakers, port and customs leadership, trade economists
and industry principals under the theme “One Fraternity, One Vision —
Logistics Driving India Towards Viksit Bharat.”

The
single-day gathering is designed as a coherent dialogue on the forces reshaping
India&#039;s trade-and-logistics ecosystem — from the long-horizon roadmap for
Viksit Bharat 2047 to the immediate realities of digital customs, shifting
geopolitics, infrastructure delivery, and the evolving role of the licensed
intermediary. The programme reflects the BCBA&#039;s conviction that the customs
broker and freight forwarder are no longer back-office facilitators but
front-line growth partners in the nation&#039;s trade story.

Inaugural
Session. The Conclave will open with an inaugural
session bringing together the senior leadership of Indian Customs and the
country&#039;s ports ecosystem. The dais is expected to feature Shri Yogendra
Garg, Member (Customs), CBIC; Shri Gaurav Dayal, IAS, Chairman, JNPA;
Dr M Angamuthu, IAS, Chairman, Mumbai Port Authority; Shri Shyam
Jagannathan, IAS, Director General of Shipping; Capt. Deepak Tiwari,
Managing Director, MSC India and Chairman, CSLA; Capt. BVJK Sharma, CEO,
Navi Mumbai International Airport; and Shri Niraj Ambani, Group
President — Supply Chain, Reliance Industries, among other dignitaries. Shri
Vivek Chaturvedi, Chairman, CBIC, is expected to address the gathering
online. The session will also felicitate industry veterans for their
distinguished contribution to the EXIM community.

Speaking
ahead of the Conclave, Mr Sanjeev Harale, President, BCBA, said: “In a
landscape marked by geopolitical shifts and supply-chain realignment, India has
emerged as a balanced and credible voice. With logistics costs falling and
policy maturing, the sector now sits at the heart of national development. The
need of the hour is not merely to respond to change, but to shape it — and that
is precisely what this Conclave seeks to do.”

Mr
Dushyant Mulani, Immediate Past President, BCBA,
under whose stewardship the inaugural edition of the India Logistics Conclave
was held in 2024, added: “What began as an idea in 2024 has grown into a
movement. This second edition reaffirms that the customs-broking fraternity is
ready to sit at the high table of national logistics policy and contribute as
an equal partner.”

Mr
Paresh Thakkar, Senior Vice President, BCBA,
said: “The customs broker is the silent force that keeps India&#039;s Exim trade
moving. As the key stakeholder coordinating between Customs, Ports,
Participating Government Agencies, shipping lines, CFSs and every link in the
EXIM chain, the broker is the thread that holds the trade ecosystem together.
This Conclave is our declaration that we will lead, we will innovate, and we
will help build the Viksit Bharat of 2047.”

The
Association is especially encouraged by the participation of speakers and
dignitaries from across India, together with key members of the Federation of
Freight Forwarders&#039; Associations in India (FFFAI) from other cities — a
reflection of the Conclave&#039;s growing national stature.

Four
Plenary Sessions. The day will be structured around four themed
plenaries. The first, “India 2030, 2035, 2047 — A Roadmap for Viksit
Bharat,” will frame the logistics agenda across three horizons of
structural transformation. The second, “Building India&#039;s Digital Spine —
Customs &amp; Trade,” will examine the move toward a unified national
customs platform, 24-hour clearance and AI-driven risk management. The third, “Geopolitics
and the New Geometry of Trade,” will address FTA utilisation, sea-lane risk
and the China Plus One opportunity. The fourth, “Policy and Infrastructure —
Building India&#039;s Futuristic Logistics Ecosystem,” will turn to the policy
architecture that converts hard infrastructure into a future-ready,
interoperable logistics network.

The
panels will draw an eminent cross-section of voices from policy, ports,
industry and academia, including senior representatives of the Central Board of
Indirect Taxes &amp; Customs, the Jawaharlal Nehru Port Authority, the Land
Port Authority of India, leading economists and thinkers, technology providers
powering the customs interface, and principals from across the shipping,
terminals and freight-forwarding ecosystem. The discussions will be moderated
by senior leaders of the customs-broking and freight-forwarding fraternity.

Valedictory.
The Conclave will conclude with a valedictory session, “Custom
Brokers and Freight Forwarders — Growth Partners,” featuring a concluding
keynote address by Mr Dhimant Parekh, Founder, The Better India, alongside
reflections from senior BCBA leadership on repositioning the profession as a
recognised trade-facilitation partner within the CBIC, DGFT and PGA framework.

<title>RBI Repo Rate Pause Provides Stability Amid Global Cost Pressures;  Emperium Group Highlights Strong Financial Planning and Execution Continuity</title>
<link>https://en.newsbolt.in/rbi-repo-rate-pause-provides-stability-amid-global-cost-pressures-emperium-group-highlights-strong-financial-planning-and-execution-continuity</link>
<guid>https://en.newsbolt.in/rbi-repo-rate-pause-provides-stability-amid-global-cost-pressures-emperium-group-highlights-strong-financial-planning-and-execution-continuity</guid>
<description><![CDATA[ India’s
real estate sector is navigating a dynamic macroeconomic environment following
the Reserve Bank of India’s decision to maintain the repo rate at 5.25%, even
as geopolitical tensions in West Asia continue to drive volatility in global
crude oil prices and construction linked input costs.

Industry
estimates indicate that ongoing global uncertainty has led to a 2-5% rise in
construction costs, driven by increased raw material prices, logistics
disruptions, and supply chain pressures. This has prompted developers across
the sector to strengthen financial planning frameworks and execution strategies
to maintain project timelines and cost efficiency.

The
RBI’s decision to hold rates is being seen as a stabilising measure, ensuring
continuity in credit conditions and offering relief to homebuyers by keeping
Equated Monthly Installments (EMIs) stable amid global volatility. This is
expected to support sustained demand in the residential housing market.

Ravi
Saund, Founding Director, Emperium Group said, “ At Emperium Group, we don&#039;t
just plan for stability, we engineer it. Volatile markets, rising input costs,
global headwinds, none of these has depleted our progression at any stage.
There are variables we account for, long before a customer signs on the dotted
line. Our financial systems, procurement strategy, and construction timelines
are built with exactly these scenarios in mind. We have never missed a
commitment. And we don&#039;t intend to start now.”

He
added, at Emperium Group, 100% ahead of time is not a tagline. It is a standard
we hold ourselves to, on every project, in every market condition.

Reaffirming
its operational strength, Emperium Group confirmed that construction activity
across its portfolio including Emperium Prime, Emperium Premio, Emperium Resortico
Villas, and Emperium Titan continues at full momentum.

The
projects, located across Gurugram, Panipat, and Yamuna Nagar, reflect the
group’s diversified presence across key growth corridors in Haryana and NCR
adjacent markets.

The
company emphasised that its execution model is built to absorb external cost
fluctuations without impacting construction quality or delivery timelines,
supported by strong procurement systems and financial discipline.
Industry experts note that developers with strong balance sheets and execution
driven strategies are better positioned to navigate macroeconomic volatility,
particularly in infrastructure-led corridors witnessing sustained long-term
demand.

As
India’s real estate sector adjusts to global economic shifts, Emperium Group
stated that its focus remains unchanged, ensuring customer satisfaction through
financial prudence, construction continuity, and consistent delivery excellence
across its entire portfolio. ]]></description>

<title>THE REAL CURRICULUM: LESSONS BEYOND THE CLASSROOM BY KARISHMA</title>
<link>https://en.newsbolt.in/the-real-curriculum-lessons-beyond-the-classroom-by-karishma</link>
<guid>https://en.newsbolt.in/the-real-curriculum-lessons-beyond-the-classroom-by-karishma</guid>
<description><![CDATA[  

The traditional
school system is a master at teaching us how to follow instructions, memorize
facts, and compete for grades. But once the final bell rings and you step into
the world of adulthood, you quickly realize that the ‘test’ has changed.

The real world
doesn&#039;t care if you can recite textbook theories or complete standardized
assignments on a deadline. It cares about your ability to handle adversity,
manage your own mind, and navigate the messy, unpredictable terrain of life.
The traits that define true survival are resilience, grit and the courage to
fail which are rarely found in a syllabus. 

If we want to
prepare the next generation for the ‘real battles of life’, we need to start
teaching what truly matters.

The ‘Who vs. the
‘What’

Schools operate on
a model of compliance. They focus on the what (facts, dates and
formulas) and the how (how to memorize, how to follow instructions, and
how to pass a test) but they consistently ignore the who. Here, who
is focusing on building the person underneath the grades which means learning
how to trust your own judgment, how to manage your own stress, and how to make
smart choices when no one is watching. Life doesn&#039;t ask you to recite facts, it
asks you to solve problems. To do that, you have to develop your own character,
your own voice, your own strength.

To truly be ready
for the real world, you need to understand three things that are usually left
out of the classroom: 

 Facts
silently missing in school curriculum: 

●     
The Fear of Failure: Schools teach us that failure is a permanent mark on record. In
reality, failure is the only reliable ‘diagnostic tool’ which shows us what to
change. When we are afraid to make mistakes, we stop taking the risks needed to
grow and succeed.

●      Emotional Navigation: You might have the
highest grades in your class, but if you don&#039;t know how to handle stress,
anger, or disappointment, you will struggle because success in life depends on
Emotional Intelligence (EQ) which is the ability to identify how you feel,
manage your stress, and work well with others even when things get difficult.

●     
System Literacy: Life doesn&#039;t come with a schedule once you leave school. Nobody will
tell you when to study, when to save money, or when to speak for yourself.
Taking charge of your life is very important and that will be done when you
learn how to budget, how to operate your bank account, and how interest works.

You have to be your
own representative. If you need help, ask for it. If you disagree with
something, speak up respectfully. Nobody can advocate for your future as well
as you can.

THE SKILLS YOU
ACTUALLY NEED 

To succeed on your
own terms, stop being a ‘student of the system’ and start being the architect
of your own life let’s see how: 

●     
Radical Resilience: Think of resilience as your internal ‘bounce back’ muscle. It’s not
about never falling. It&#039;s about what you do once you&#039;re on the ground. When
life knocks you down it will remember that your value isn&#039;t tied to the mistake
or the setback. Your value is defined entirely by your response.

●     
Self- Advocacy &amp;
Initiative: The world outside is not going to hand you
a syllabus or tell you when your next assignment is due. Outside of school,
there is no pre-set schedule to follow. You have to become the person who spots
the problem, hunts down the resources to fix it, and has the courage to speak
up for what you need, whether that&#039;s asking for help on a project, negotiating
for your future, or taking a moment to protect your mental health. Initiative
is about moving from ‘waiting to be told’ to ‘deciding to act’.

●     
Practical Adaptability: The world changes much faster than any textbook can be updated. True
intelligence today isn&#039;t about memorizing all the answers but it is about the ability
to unlearn what is no longer useful and quickly adapt to new technology,
changing environments, and unexpected surprises. Think of it like a ‘mental
software update’ you must be willing to let go of old methods when they stop
working so you can embrace the new skills needed to thrive.

ALWAYS REMEMBER
YOU ARE THE ARCHITECT OF YOUR FUTURE 

Your education
doesn&#039;t stop the moment you walk out of the classroom. School may have given
you a starting point, but it is not the limit of what you can achieve.

If you feel like
you aren&#039;t ready for ‘real life’ don&#039;t worry almost everyone feels that way.
The secret isn&#039;t knowing everything but it is realizing that you don&#039;t need a
teacher to tell you how to grow. Stop waiting for someone else to grade your
progress. Instead, treat your life, your own personal expedition, your
mistakes as data, your emotions as a compass and stay relentlessly curious.

The world isn&#039;t
looking for more people who can just follow orders. It is looking for people
who can solve problems, navigate uncertainty, and create their own path. You
have everything, you need to start doing that right now.

<title>The Convergence of AI and Cybersecurity Is Creating a New Talent Imperative</title>
<link>https://en.newsbolt.in/the-convergence-of-ai-and-cybersecurity-is-creating-a-new-talent-imperative</link>
<guid>https://en.newsbolt.in/the-convergence-of-ai-and-cybersecurity-is-creating-a-new-talent-imperative</guid>
<description><![CDATA[ Artificial
Intelligence is rapidly transforming the cybersecurity landscape, creating a
high-stakes race between attackers and defenders. While organisations are
leveraging AI to automate threat detection and strengthen cyber resilience,
threat actors are using the same technologies to launch increasingly
sophisticated attacks at unprecedented scale.

The
cybersecurity profession is therefore entering a new era. Security teams are no
longer defending against conventional threats alone; they are confronting AI-generated
phishing campaigns, deepfake-enabled social engineering attacks, adaptive
malware, and highly automated attack frameworks capable of evolving in real
time.

As
organisations race to build AI-powered security capabilities, the demand for
professionals who understand both cybersecurity and artificial intelligence is
accelerating. To address this emerging skills gap, IITM Pravartak has launched
the Professional Certificate Programme in Cybersecurity and AI,
a comprehensive programme designed to help professionals develop expertise
across modern cyber defence, offensive security, AI-driven threat detection,
cloud security, digital forensics, and cybersecurity architecture.

According
to the 2024 ISC2 Cybersecurity Workforce Study, the global cybersecurity
workforce gap has reached nearly 4.8 million professionals. Closer to home,
industry reports indicate that more than 28,000 cybersecurity positions remain
unfilled in India, while 75% of organisations report challenges in hiring
skilled cybersecurity talent. At the same time, IBM&#039;s Cost of a Data Breach
Report 2024 estimates the average global cost of a breach at USD 4.88
million—the highest recorded to date.

Against
this backdrop, the role of the cybersecurity professional is evolving rapidly.

The New Cybersecurity
Battlefield

Today&#039;s
threat landscape is being reshaped by AI on both sides of the security equation

Cybercriminals
are increasingly leveraging AI to:

●       
Generate highly personalised phishing
campaigns at scale

●       
Create convincing deepfakes for identity fraud
and social engineering

●       
Develop adaptive malware capable of bypassing
traditional controls

●       
Automate reconnaissance and attack execution

●       
Increase the speed and volume of cyberattacks

Meanwhile,
organisations are deploying AI-powered security capabilities to improve
detection, response, and resilience.

As
India accelerates initiatives such as Digital India, 5G deployment, smart
cities, API-driven digital infrastructure, and cloud adoption, the need for
AI-ready cybersecurity talent is becoming increasingly urgent. Industry
estimates suggest India&#039;s cybersecurity market is expected to grow at more than
18% CAGR through the decade, creating significant demand for specialised
talent.

Why Cybersecurity
Professionals Need AI Expertise

Modern
cybersecurity roles extend far beyond network monitoring and infrastructure
protection.

Security
teams are increasingly expected to work with:

●       
AI-powered anomaly detection systems

●       
User and Entity Behaviour Analytics (UEBA)

●       
Machine learning-driven threat detection
models

●       
Security automation through SIEM and SOAR
platforms

●       
AI governance and explainability frameworks

●       
Adversarial AI defence mechanisms

Recognising
this shift, IITM Pravartak&#039;s Professional Certificate Programme in Cybersecurity and AI
incorporates a dedicated AI in Cybersecurity curriculum that explores how AI
can both strengthen and threaten modern security systems.

Participants
gain exposure to areas such as:

●       
Deep Learning and NLP for Cybersecurity

●       
AI-Driven Anomaly and Malware Detection

●       
Adversarial Attacks and Model Robustness

●       
AI Integration with SIEM and SOAR

●       
Threat Hunting using MITRE ATT&amp;CK

●       
Ethics and Governance in AI Security

The
objective is to help professionals understand not only how AI can be used for
defence, but also how attackers are increasingly weaponising it.

Building Defenders Who Understand Attackers

While
AI is transforming cybersecurity operations, strong security fundamentals
remain critical.

Effective
cybersecurity professionals must understand how attacks are planned, executed,
and investigated before they can build effective defence strategies.

To
address this requirement, the programme delivers practical exposure across both
offensive and defensive security disciplines, including ethical hacking,
vulnerability assessment and penetration testing (VAPT), cloud security,
Security Operations Centre (SOC) operations, digital forensics, incident
response, and security architecture.

Participants
also gain hands-on experience with more than 10 widely used cybersecurity tools
including Nmap, Metasploit, SEToolkit, OpenVAS, Nessus, Wireshark, and SQLMap,
helping bridge the gap between theoretical knowledge and operational capability.

This
dual perspective helps learners develop a more complete understanding of modern
cyber risk while strengthening their ability to identify, assess, and mitigate
threats.

From Learning to
Industry Readiness

Cybersecurity
employers increasingly seek professionals who can contribute immediately in
operational environments.

The
programme places significant emphasis on practical application
through:

●       
Hands-on projects

●       
Real-world case studies

●       
Expert-led live sessions

●       
Applied tool-based learning

●       
A comprehensive capstone project

Learning
is reinforced through practical scenarios such as AI-driven SOC automation,
security breach investigations, secure cloud IAM configurations, phishing
detection using NLP, and digital forensics exercises.

The
programme is delivered through a blended learning format featuring weekly
recorded content and select masterclasses from IITM Pravartak guest faculty,
combined with live sessions led by domain experts. Successful participants also
have the opportunity to attend a two-day optional immersion at IIT Madras
Research Park, enabling deeper engagement with the broader technology
ecosystem.

This
focus on applied capability development is particularly relevant as cyber
threats continue to escalate. Recent industry reports indicate more than 369
million malware detections across 8.44 million endpoints in India, highlighting
the scale of the challenge facing organisations.

Building Strategic
Cybersecurity Expertise for the Age of AI

Cybersecurity
has become a strategic business issue rather than a purely technical function.

Today&#039;s
professionals must increasingly navigate:

●       
Cyber risk management

●       
Security governance

●       
Regulatory compliance

●       
Enterprise security architecture

●       
AI risk management

To
support this evolution, the programme integrates CISSP training aligned with
one of the world&#039;s most respected cybersecurity credentials. The curriculum
covers key domains including security and risk management, security
architecture and engineering, communication and network security, identity and
access management, security operations, and software development security.

The
learning experience is further strengthened through three IBM certifications
focused on:

●       
Generative AI Skills for Cybersecurity
Professionals

●       
Fundamentals of Encryption and Quantum-Safe
Techniques

●       
Cybersecurity Forensic Analysis and Incident
Response

Combined
with certification from IITM Pravartak, these credentials help participants
build both technical depth and broader cybersecurity expertise relevant to
modern organisations.

Building the Next
Generation of Cybersecurity Talent

The
future of cybersecurity belongs to professionals who can combine deep security
expertise with AI-powered defence capabilities.

As
cybercriminals continue to weaponise AI and organisations increasingly deploy
intelligent security systems, the need for hybrid cybersecurity talent will
only intensify.

The
Professional Certificate Programme in Cybersecurity and AI
by IITM Pravartak has been designed to meet this moment. Through integrated
CISSP training, AI-powered cybersecurity modules, hands-on exposure to industry
tools, three IBM certifications, applied projects, and expert-led learning, the
programme equips professionals with the knowledge and practical skills required
to secure the next generation of digital enterprises. ]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[ Genetidoc Platform Now Brings
Together 10 Top Genetics Doctors, Serving Families Across India with a Combined
Experience of Over 1,00,000 Families and 65,000 Genetic Tests

 

Thiruvananthapuram,
Kerala : Genetidoc Genetic Clinic and DNA
Testing Lab has expanded its specialist panel with ten newly joining Clinical
Geneticists, further strengthening its position as India&#039;s largest network of
online genetics specialists.

The doctors joining
Genetidoc bring, between them, clinical experience at some of India&#039;s most
respected medical institutions and a combined exposure of over 1,00,000
families and 65,000 genetic tests across every major area of the
discipline, from prenatal diagnosis and rare childhood syndromes to hereditary
cancers and adult genetic disorders.

A Platform Built Around Access

Genetidoc was founded
on a straightforward observation: most families in India who need a genetics
specialist cannot reach one. The platform&#039;s response has been practical. All
consultations take place online so patients do not need to travel to a metro
city or wait months for a tertiary centre appointment. The platform serves patients
directly and supports referring physicians (general practitioners,
obstetricians, paediatricians, oncologists, and neurologists) who need reliable
genetics specialist input for their patients.

Pan-India Sample Collection for
Genetic Testing

Genetidoc coordinates
DNA sample collection from homes and clinics across India from Chandigarh to
Kerala, from Punjab to West Bengal, through a network of trained collection
partners. Samples are processed at NABL and CAP accredited partner
laboratories, with all clinical interpretation carried out by Genetidoc&#039;s own
qualified genetics specialists. For families in districts far from a diagnostic
centre, this end-to-end arrangement removes one of the most persistent barriers
to genetic testing: the difficulty of arranging a sample in the first place.

Consultations in Ten Indian
Languages

The platform&#039;s
specialist panel collectively consults in English, Hindi, Malayalam,
Tamil, Kannada, Telugu, Bengali, Marathi, Punjabi, and Rajasthani, covering
patient communities across the length and breadth of the country. Genetics
consultations often carry high-stakes information: recurrence risks,
inheritance patterns, cancer surveillance decisions, and reproductive options.
Receiving that information in one&#039;s own language, from a doctor familiar with
the local and familial context, makes a measurable difference to how it is
understood and acted upon.

The Specialists Joining the Panel

The ten joining doctors
are active consultants and clinicians whose work spans the full spectrum of
genetic medicine:

 

Dr. Chakshu Chaudhry
specialises in prenatal genetics and neurodevelopmental conditions, and
independently consults at Motherhood Hospital and Chaitanya Hospital in the
Tricity region. Dr. Devi Saranya S, who holds additional certification in
cancer genetics from Harvard Medical School, independently consults at Rajagiri
Hospital, Kochi. Dr. Muhammed Shabeer P focuses on metabolic disorders and
neurogenetics, with independent practice at Meitra Hospital and Baby Memorial
Hospital across Kozhikode and Kannur. Dr. Sarath R S is an active medical
educator and independent consultant at multiple centres across Angamaly,
Bhubaneswar, Guwahati, and Visakhapatnam. Dr. Kathirvel M specialises in
oncogenetics and complex genomic reanalysis, and independently consults at a
centre in Chennai.

 

Dr. Selvamanojkumar S,
who has presented research at SSIEM Porto 2024 and serves as a biocurator for
the ClinGen international consortium, independently consults at centres in
Mumbai including Bai Jerbai Wadia Hospital for Children and P.D. Hinduja
Hospital. Dr. Shifali Gupta, independently is a lead Clinical Geneticist at
PRAGMA Hospital, Bathinda, also runs a widely followed public genetics
education channel on YouTube. Dr. Vishaka Kothiwale focuses on deep phenotyping
and rare paediatric disorders, and independently consults at the Institute of
Child Health, Apollo Clinic, and Manipal Hospitals in Kolkata. Dr. Robert
Patrick Selvam, trained at KMC Manipal and St. John&#039;s Medical College
Bangalore, brings a rare dual background in pathology and medical genetics,
with research presented at ESHG 2025 in Milan. Dr. Roshan Daniel continues as
the founding Geneticist of the platform, and independently heads the Department
of Medical Genetics at KIMSHealth, Trivandrum.

 

All ten specialists
hold DM or DrNB qualifications in Medical Genetics, with training backgrounds
including AIIMS New Delhi, PGIMER Chandigarh, Kasturba Medical College Manipal,
St. John&#039;s Medical College Bangalore, and Harvard Medical School. This is a distinction
that matters: in a genetics testing market where patients are frequently guided
by unqualified counsellors or commercially driven recommendations, Genetidoc&#039;s
model is built entirely around doctors who have spent years training
specifically in this field.

A Note from a Referring Physician

Dr. Amandeep Kaundal,
Pediatrician, Shimla, said:

&quot;In Shimla, there
is no clinical geneticist. When I see a child with a suspected genetic
condition or an unusual developmental profile, I need a referral pathway that
is both credible and practical. Genetidoc has been exactly that, my patients
get a proper genetics consultation promptly, their families are counselled in a
language they understand, and sample collection is arranged locally. It has
changed how I manage these cases.&quot;

Founder&#039;s Statement

Dr. Roshan Daniel, Clinical Geneticist, Founder of Genetidoc,
and Head of the Medical Genetics Department at KIMSHealth, Trivandrum, said:

&quot;India has a
significant shortage of qualified genetics specialists, and the burden falls
hardest on families outside the major cities. Genetidoc was built to bridge
that gap, through online consultations, doorstep sample collection, and a panel
that speaks the patient&#039;s language. The doctors joining us are active
clinicians with deep experience across the country, and they share a commitment
to making genetics accessible. This expansion allows us to serve more families,
in more languages, from more parts of India.&quot;

About Genetidoc Genetic Clinic and
DNA Testing Lab

Genetidoc is India&#039;s
largest network of online genetics specialists, founded by Dr. Roshan Daniel.
The platform offers online consultations, genetic counselling, and DNA testing
across all areas of clinical genetics (prenatal, paediatric, oncological,
metabolic, and neurological) with pan-India sample collection and reporting by
qualified genetics specialists. Testing is processed through NABL and CAP
accredited partner laboratories. You can read more on the

<title>AI risk intelligence startup Privue raises angel round to expand dealer intelligence application</title>
<link>https://en.newsbolt.in/ai-risk-intelligence-startup-privue-raises-angel-round-to-expand-dealer-intelligence-application</link>
<guid>https://en.newsbolt.in/ai-risk-intelligence-startup-privue-raises-angel-round-to-expand-dealer-intelligence-application</guid>
<description><![CDATA[  

Privue, a startup focused on AI-powered
risk intelligence for enterprises, has raised an angel round of funding. The
round saw participation from owners of large manufacturing companies, along
with senior leaders from real estate, wealth management, and insurance.

Gurugram-headquartered Privue, which
operates under Nexvue Technologies Private Limited, will use the capital to
deepen its AI capabilities and expand its go-to-market presence across sectors
including pharma, MedTech, consumer electricals, agro, chemicals, and other
manufacturing segments.

Founded by Saurabh Verma and Snehil Vijay,
Privue is building a web-based AI risk analytics application that converts
fragmented data—credit bureau records, GST signals, financial filings, and
legal records—into predictive intelligence on dealers and distributors, helping
CFOs, credit heads, and channel managers make faster, data-backed decisions.

Saurabh, Co-founder and CEO, is an alum of
SRCC and ISB Hyderabad, and brings two decades of financial risk management
experience, including seven years at Moody&#039;s, where he worked on data solutions
and risk assessment for banks and financial institutions across the US and the
UK. Snehil, Co-founder and CPO, is an IIT Roorkee alum who worked at HSBC and
JP Morgan before starting Privue.

The startup says most mid-to-large Indian
enterprises still depend on weeks of manual data collection and informal credit
judgments to manage dealer and distributor networks, with collection problems
often surfacing too late to act on.

At the core of the application is an
analytics engine that ingests data across public and proprietary sources to
score dealer risk and algorithmically generate credit terms. The startup
applies this across three stages of the dealer relationship. For dealer
discovery, companies can search from a database of over one million dealers,
filtered by HSN code and location, with each dealer assigned a quality score
derived from publicly available information using a heuristic model—enabling
better dealer selection driven by data rather than field referrals alone.
Before onboarding, the application runs assessments covering GST turnover-based
capacity, compliance, and credit bureau profiles, and recommends credit
terms—advance percentage, credit period, and credit limit—calibrated to the
dealer&#039;s risk profile and the company&#039;s policy. It also sources geo-tagged
facility photographs for physical verification, reducing the need for onsite
visits.

Once a dealer is onboarded, the application
applies analytics to invoicing and collections data to detect early signals of
dealer stress before they turn into bad debt, and automates reminders for
post-dated cheque and bank guarantee due dates.

Two of the application&#039;s agentic AI
capabilities have found particular resonance with clients, according to the
startup. A conversational workspace allows CFOs and Business Development heads
to query their dealer portfolio in natural language and get specific answers in
minutes, instead of waiting days for teams to compile reports. An AI calling
agent handles follow-up calls for overdue collections, cutting the time finance
teams spend chasing payments without adding headcount.

&quot;Saurabh understood the problem from
every angle. Snehil knew exactly how to build the solution,&quot; said one of
the company&#039;s angel investors. &quot;That combination is exactly what a
platform like this needs.&quot;

The startup plans to target enterprises
across pharma, MedTech, Consumer Electricals, Agro, chemicals, and other
manufacturing sectors, where dealer and distributor networks form the backbone
of distribution.

<description><![CDATA[ Assures
cab support within 45 minutes in case of mid-journey bus breakdowns

Hyderabad/Gurugram,
India, 12th June 2026 : AbhiBus (ixigo’s bus business), one of
India’s leading online bus ticketing platforms, today announced the launch of
an industry-first Roadside Assistance program designed to support travellers in
the event of a bus breakdown during their journey.

Under
this initiative, if a bus booked through AbhiBus experiences a breakdown en
route, the platform will arrange a cab within 45 minutes, ensuring
passengers can continue their journey with minimal disruption and greater peace
of mind. The service will be provided at no additional cost to travellers, with
AbhiBus bearing the entire cost of the alternate transport.

Bus
travel has witnessed significant growth across India, particularly in Tier II
and Tier III markets. While bus operators continue to maintain high service
standards, unforeseen mechanical or service-related issues can occasionally
occur. With the launch of Roadside Assistance, AbhiBus is extending its
responsibility beyond ticket confirmation and stepping in when travellers need
support the most.

By
introducing guaranteed cab support within 45 minutes during breakdowns, AbhiBus
aims to address one of the biggest anxieties associated with bus travel-being
stranded on the highway. The initiative reflects the company&#039;s continued focus
on building greater reliability, accountability and trust in intercity bus
travel across India.

Commenting
on the launch, Rohit Sharma, COO, AbhiBus, said, &quot;Consumer
empathy is at the heart of everything we do. We go to great lengths to partner
with trusted operators and help travellers make informed choices through
quality and safety-focused features. At the same time, we recognise that

<title>How PB Fintech is building a trust&#45;first ecosystem across insurance and healthcare</title>
<link>https://en.newsbolt.in/how-pb-fintech-is-building-a-trust-first-ecosystem-across-insurance-and-healthcare</link>
<guid>https://en.newsbolt.in/how-pb-fintech-is-building-a-trust-first-ecosystem-across-insurance-and-healthcare</guid>
<description><![CDATA[  - Shruti Pal

As
India moves towards its ambitious vision of becoming a developed economy by
2047, one question becomes increasingly important: what needs to change in the
country&#039;s financial ecosystem to make that journey possible?

To
explore that question, Why Not Mint Money and Policybazaar brought together
some of the most influential voices shaping India&#039;s financial future. The
series examined the structural challenges, opportunities and reforms needed to
build a more inclusive, trusted and resilient financial system.

The
first episode featured Monika Halan in conversation with Yashish Dahiya,
Chairman and Group CEO of PB Fintech, the parent company of Policybazaar and
Paisabazaar. What began as a discussion around insurance and financial services
quickly expanded into a larger conversation about trust, data, regulation,
healthcare and the road to Viksit Bharat.

India&#039;s
Financial Story And Its Missing Piece

One
of the central themes of the discussion was that India has made tremendous
strides in payments and mutual funds because they are relatively simple
products.Growth &quot;gets stuck&quot; when dealing with products involving
risk, specifically credit and insurance. Yashish mentioned that Regardless of
whether it is credit cards (fewer than 50 million), retail health insurance (60
million insured), or term insurance (15 million insured), the penetration
consistently sits at roughly 3% of the population at a family level.To become a
developed country, the next 30% of the population - representing half a billion
people - must be served.

Why
Data Will Define Financial Inclusion

A
recurring theme throughout the episode was the role of data in expanding
financial access. Yashish believes that India&#039;s next phase of financial
inclusion would depend on the ability to assess risk more accurately and
fairly. Better access to data can make loans, insurance and other financial
products available to millions who are currently excluded because institutions
lack sufficient information to evaluate them. The discussion also underscored a
broader shift that India may need to make from decisions based on institutional
capacity to decisions driven by data and risk assessment. As Yashish put it,
India must move from a &quot;capacity approach&quot; to a &quot;data
approach&quot;, using information, transparency and scientific underwriting to
expand access at scale.

Building
Trust in Insurance

Despite
growing awareness of insurance, India&#039;s consumers continue to approach
financial products with caution, particularly insurance. While customers are
willing to pay premiums for years, many remain uncertain whether their claims
will be honoured when they need support the most.&quot;Claims are
non-negotiable,&quot; he said, once an insurer has assessed and accepted a
customer, the promise made to that customer must be honoured.

As
we went ahead in the conversation, the issue of mis-selling and product
suitability was also discussed. As per Yashish, financial products cannot be
sold using a one-size-fits-all approach. The right product depends on a
person&#039;s age, goals, risk appetite and financial circumstances. Instead of
focusing solely on distribution, the industry must place greater emphasis on
understanding customer needs before making recommendations.

PB
Health and the Next Phase of India&#039;s Healthcare Evolution

The
episode also touched upon PB Fintech’s foray into healthcare through PB HEALTH
and the role of technology, insurance and healthcare providers in improving
patient outcomes. He outlined his vision of creating more integrated healthcare
networks that align incentives between insurers, hospitals and patients,
reducing friction and improving outcomes. The discussion also highlighted the
scale of the healthcare opportunity that Policybazaar expects to serve nearly
40 million health insurance customers by 2030-31. At current healthcare
utilisation rates, the customer base would require access to approximately
32,000 hospital beds, underscoring the need for more efficient and coordinated
healthcare delivery models.

Looking
Beyond 2047 

The
conversation with Yashish Dahiya raises questions that go well beyond insurance
and healthcare. It is ultimately about the kind of financial system India wants
to build over the next two decades, one that is driven by data rather than
discretion, suitability rather than sales, and long-term trust rather than
short-term transactions. As this five-episode series unfolds, those questions
will remain central to understanding what it will take to build a truly Viksit
Bharat. ]]></description>

<title>Unimech Aerospace rebounds from a tariff&#45;hit year; order book triples to ~Rs. 314 crore as scale becomes its competitive moat</title>
<link>https://en.newsbolt.in/unimech-aerospace-rebounds-from-a-tariff-hit-year-order-book-triples-to-rs-314-crore-as-scale-becomes-its-competitive-moat</link>
<guid>https://en.newsbolt.in/unimech-aerospace-rebounds-from-a-tariff-hit-year-order-book-triples-to-rs-314-crore-as-scale-becomes-its-competitive-moat</guid>
<description><![CDATA[ Bengaluru : Unimech Aerospace &amp; Manufacturing Ltd., a
Bengaluru-based high precision engineering solutions provider, has returned to
growth after a year of temporary disruption in global customer ordering. Its
consolidated order book has tripled to approximately ₹314 crore as of 26 May,
2026, from about ₹100 crore a year earlier, and the fourth quarter marked a
decisive turn.

Through
much of FY26, a wave of CY2025 tariff measures, baseline US duties, and
reciprocal tariffs, led global buyers to pause and defer orders. For FY26,
Unimech’s total revenue stood at ₹287.5 crore. EBITDA of ₹75.1 crore and PAT of
₹63.3 crore moderated largely by design: the company front-loaded investment in
capacity, capability and talent to build ahead of the recovery.

For
Q4 FY26, total revenue rose to ₹96.6 crore, up 116% sequentially and 23%
year-on-year; EBITDA recovered to ₹35.2 crore from ₹1.5 crore in Q3 FY26, and
PAT to ₹26.1 crore from ₹2.4 crore in Q3 FY26. More than 200 first-article
qualifications completed during the year, some of which are now converting into
production. Collectively, the current order book, provides strong revenue
visibility over the next 12 months and beyond. 

Unimech’s
advantage rests on a deeply integrated manufacturing and qualification platform
— spanning nearly 6,000 SKUs, a qualification engine that approved over 200
first articles last year and is targeting a meaningful scale-up in FY27, and a
manufacturing footprint exceeding 600,000 sq. ft. Each qualified part
strengthens Unimech’s integration within customer supply chains, gradually
increasing switching costs over time. In precision engineering, particularly
within aerospace, energy and high-spec industrial applications, supplier
qualification is a long and rigorous process involving process validation,
repeatability checks, documentation standards and customer approvals. Once a
supplier is qualified and embedded into an OEM or Tier-1 programme, replacement
becomes both time-consuming and operationally expensive.

As
seen with some of India’s strongest precision-engineering suppliers, durable
competitive advantages are not built purely on production volume, but on the
breadth of qualified capabilities, process reliability and customer embedment.
Every additional approved component expands the company’s relevance within existing
programmes while opening adjacencies across platforms and customers. Over time,
this creates a compounding moat driven by qualification depth, engineering
credibility and execution consistency rather than scale alone.

The
acquisition of Hobel Bellows was also aligned with Unimech’s long-term growth
and capability strategy. The transaction strengthens the group’s manufacturing
depth and engineering capabilities, enabling Unimech to offer larger and more
integrated solution packages to customers while increasing wallet share across
existing relationships. The acquisition also enhances the company’s positioning
in high-precision and critical application segments, where customers
increasingly prefer integrated suppliers with broader manufacturing capabilities.
Additionally, during the year, the company received about ₹87 crore of nuclear
orders tied to the Tarapur and Madras stations, positioning Unimech for India’s
Nuclear Energy Mission target of 100 GW by 2047 (from under 9 GW currently).

Building
on the capabilities, Unimech’s associate entity Dheya Engineering Technologies
is developing indigenous micro gas turbine engines under the Make in India
initiative, strengthening its position in advanced propulsion technologies.
Unimech’s exclusive manufacturing partnership for several of these offerings
creates meaningful long-term opportunities for Unimech in advanced propulsion
and defence applications.

The
company is also expanding its international footprint through a joint venture
with the Yusuf Bin Ahmed Kanoo Group in Saudi Arabia. Phase I of the project,
involving a planned investment of US$30 million, is already underway, with
investment approvals secured and facility finalisation and machine procurement
activities initiated. The platform is expected to emerge as an important
long-term growth driver for the company.

Unimech
enters FY27 against a supportive backdrop, as global manufacturers accelerate
sourcing from India, with utilisation expected to substantially improve from
its current 50% levels over the next 30 to 36 months.

<title>Bengaluru Hospital Builds One of the World&amp;apos;s Largest English&#45;Language Gastroenterology Education Channels on YouTube</title>
<link>https://en.newsbolt.in/bengaluru-hospital-builds-one-of-the-worlds-largest-english-language-gastroenterology-education-channels-on-youtube</link>
<guid>https://en.newsbolt.in/bengaluru-hospital-builds-one-of-the-worlds-largest-english-language-gastroenterology-education-channels-on-youtube</guid>
<description><![CDATA[  
With more than 100,000 subscribers and over 18 million views, Bangalore Gastro
Centre Hospitals has transformed patient education into one of the largest
digestive-health knowledge libraries online.

For many hospitals, a YouTube channel serves as little more than a digital
brochure—a place for welcome videos, doctor introductions, and occasional event
highlights. Bangalore Gastro Centre (BGC) Hospitals took a different approach.

The Bengaluru-based gastroenterology hospital viewed digital education as an extension
of patient care itself. Over the years, that vision has grown into an
extraordinary achievement. Today, BGC&#039;s English-language YouTube channel has
crossed 100,000 subscribers, accumulated over 18 million views, and published
more than 524 educational videos focused on digestive health.

Based on publicly available channel data, the hospital believes it has built
one of the largest English-language YouTube channels operated by a
gastroenterology hospital anywhere in the world.

What makes the milestone particularly noteworthy is that it has been achieved
not through entertainment-driven content or viral trends, but through
consistent, evidence-based patient education delivered by practising
specialists.

Patient Education, One Question at a Time

The success of the channel stems from a simple principle: answer the questions
patients ask every day.

What happens during an endoscopy? When should someone undergo a colonoscopy?
What are the warning signs of liver disease? How serious is persistent acidity?
What dietary changes can improve digestive health?

These are the concerns that bring patients to gastroenterology clinics, and
they are the same questions addressed across BGC&#039;s growing video library.

Procedures that often sound intimidating are explained calmly and clearly by
the specialists who perform them. Common digestive disorders are discussed in
straightforward language. Nutrition, preventive healthcare, liver health,
gastrointestinal cancers, inflammatory bowel disease, and advanced endoscopic
procedures are all covered in a manner designed to empower patients rather than
overwhelm them.

Over time, this steady commitment to education has created a trusted resource
for viewers seeking reliable digestive-health information.

Expanding Access Through Regional Languages

BGC&#039;s educational mission extends beyond English.

The hospital&#039;s dedicated Kannada-language YouTube channel has grown to more
than 80,000 subscribers and features hundreds of educational videos tailored
specifically for Kannada-speaking audiences.

Together, BGC&#039;s English and Kannada channels now reach more than 1.80 lakh
subscribers, making digestive-health education accessible to diverse
communities across Karnataka and beyond.

For many patients and families, receiving healthcare information in their
native language improves understanding, reduces anxiety, and empowers informed
decision-making. By investing in separate channels rather than simply
translating content, BGC has been able to serve audiences more effectively and
authentically.

Expertise Beyond Hospital Walls

The authority of the channels reflects the expertise of the institution behind
them.

Bangalore Gastro Centre Hospitals is led by Dr. Yogananda Reddy, Director and
Chief Gastroenterologist, who trained in the United Kingdom and brings more
than two decades of experience in digestive healthcare.

The hospital is NABH accredited and supported by a multidisciplinary team
comprising gastroenterologists, GI surgeons, oncologists, nutritionists,
psychologists, and allied specialists.

Beyond its hospital-based services, BGC has distinguished itself through its
commitment to community healthcare. The institution pioneered Karnataka&#039;s First
Gastroenterology on Wheels initiative, bringing super-speciality
gastroenterology services free of cost to underserved communities and ensuring
that expert digestive healthcare reaches patients beyond the boundaries of
traditional hospitals.

The hospital has also undertaken extensive rural outreach initiatives,
conducting awareness programmes, educational campaigns, health camps, and
preventive-health activities in communities where specialist digestive-health
services may otherwise be difficult to access.

These efforts reflect the same philosophy that drives BGC&#039;s digital platforms:
quality healthcare and trusted medical information should be accessible to
everyone, regardless of geography.

&quot;Trust Travels&quot;

&quot;We never set out to build a large channel. We set out to answer our
patients&#039; questions properly—and it turns out lakhs of people had the same
questions. If a video helps someone understand a symptom earlier, seek medical
attention sooner, or walk into an endoscopy without fear, that is the real
outcome. The subscriber count is simply a reflection of the trust people place
in reliable medical information.&quot;

— Dr. Yogananda Reddy
Director &amp; Chief Gastroenterologist
Bangalore Gastro Centre Hospitals

Why It Matters

Digestive symptoms are among the most commonly ignored and self-medicated
health concerns. Delayed diagnosis, misinformation, and fear often prevent
patients from seeking timely treatment.

By providing free, evidence-based educational content online—and by extending
specialist services through rural outreach programmes and Karnataka&#039;s First
Gastroenterology on Wheels initiative—BGC has expanded its impact far beyond
traditional hospital walls.

Whether through a YouTube video watched at home, a family learning about
nutrition, or a screening initiative conducted in a rural community, the goal
remains the same: making digestive healthcare more accessible, understandable,
and timely.

In this sense, the hospital&#039;s digital platforms represent more than
communication channels. They are an extension of its healthcare mission.

Looking Ahead

The milestone aligns with BGC&#039;s broader vision of becoming a globally
recognised centre for excellence in digestive healthcare.

As the hospital continues to expand its clinical services, research
initiatives, outreach programmes, and educational platforms, it remains
committed to ensuring that trustworthy healthcare information reaches as many
people as possible.

For now, the achievement stands as a remarkable example of how a specialist
hospital from Bengaluru has built a global audience—not through spectacle, but
through consistent education, clinical expertise, and a commitment to answering
the questions patients have always wanted answered.

digestive-health institution based in Bengaluru, India. The hospital provides

<description><![CDATA[ Mumbai,
India : A&amp;H Finverse, the next chapter in
the journey of one of India&#039;s most trusted financial services firms, today
announced its formal presence as the evolved identity of A&amp;H Capital — a
name that has stood for integrity, responsible lending, and transformative
business finance since July 2014. Built on a foundation of over a decade of
excellence, A&amp;H Finverse is now positioned to deliver strategic, customized
financial solutions tailored for large-ticket clients with complex, high-value
requirements.

Under
the stewardship of its founding leadership — whose collective experience spans
over 24 years in underwriting and risk management — A&amp;H Capital disbursed
more than ₹10,000 Crores across its decade-long journey, serving 5,000+
clients spanning MSMEs, textiles, infrastructure, real estate, agriculture,
and beyond. That legacy of trust and expertise is now the bedrock upon which
A&amp;H Finverse stands.

&quot;Every
rupee we disbursed over the last decade was backed by a relationship — not just
a transaction. A&amp;H Finverse is our commitment to take that ethos forward,
but with a sharper lens on the complex, large-ticket financial needs that
India&#039;s ambitious businesses deserve to have solved.&quot;
— Alok Nag, Co-Founder &amp; Visionary, A&amp;H Finverse

From
A&amp;H Capital to A&amp;H Finverse: A Strategic Evolution

While
A&amp;H Capital continues to serve its diverse client base, A&amp;H Finverse
has been launched with a sharpened focus — to be the premier destination for
businesses navigating complex financing needs that require deep expertise,
bespoke structuring, and a partner who truly understands risk. The firm brings
to the table capabilities across unsecured business loans, structured finance,
construction finance, trade finance, working capital solutions, crisis funding,
capital raising through NCDs and structured instruments, and sector-specific
funding.

With
loan amounts ranging from ₹50,000 to ₹200 Crores+ and pan-India presence,
A&amp;H Finverse is uniquely positioned to bridge the gap that large commercial
banks and conventional NBFCs often leave unaddressed — particularly for MSMEs,
distressed companies, real estate developers, and businesses operating in niche
or high-growth sectors.

&quot;At

<title>Innefu Labs Raises USD 30M in Series B Round to advance Sovereign AI for National Security</title>

<description><![CDATA[ 11
June 2026 | New Delhi : Innefu Labs, India’s leading Artificial
Intelligence company in the space of National Security, founded by Tarun Wig
and Abhishek Sharma, has raised USD 30M from Panthera Growth Partners, marking
one of the most significant milestones in India&#039;s National Security technology
sector. The company has been at the forefront of creating indigenous platforms
and multi-modal fusion systems currently deployed across defense, intelligence,
law enforcement, revenue intelligence, and large enterprise clients.

The
capital injection, completed through a combination of primary and secondary
transactions from Panthera’s second fund, positions Innefu for an IPO and
accelerates its push into international markets after Innefu’s initial
successful forays in Middle East.

The
investment comes as India&#039;s sovereign defense initiatives drive sharply
increased domestic procurement of critical security technologies. Building on
consistent revenues above ₹100 crore, Innefu’s momentum is reflected in a
growing pool of multiple ₹100 crore+ contracts spanning defense, intelligence,
law enforcement, and revenue intelligence operations.

The
proceeds will fund Innefu&#039;s next phase of scaling and global expansion,
alongside deep-tech R&amp;D anchored in its AI-first, sovereign capabilities.
This includes advancing its proprietary Agentic AI platform, establishing a
dedicated Physical AI (robotics) wing, and developing sovereign AI
infrastructure with secure, domain-specialized language models built for
high-trust environments.

Tarun
Wig, Co-Founder and CEO of Innefu Labs, stated:
&quot;When we started Innefu, our vision was clear: India should never have to
depend on external technologies to secure its people, its institutions, or its
digital future. Over the last fifteen years, we have transformed that vision
into reality, building indigenous AI-powered platforms that protect critical
national assets, empower decision-makers, and strengthen the country&#039;s security
ecosystem.

We
now intend to scale our innovations faster, deepen our investments in advanced
AI and further enhance our autonomous decision-support systems. We believe the
next wave of technological leadership will belong to nations that own their
intelligence capabilities, and Innefu is committed to ensuring that India
stands at the forefront of that transformation.

What
excites us most is that we are still at the beginning of our story. The
foundations have been laid, the talent is in place, and the mission has never
been clearer. With this new chapter, we are not just building a company, we are
helping build the technological backbone of a secure, self-reliant, and
AI-powered India for generations to come.&quot;

Shilpa
Kulkarni, Founder and Managing Partner of Panthera Growth Partners, stated:  &quot;Innefu has built native, AI-powered
software that solve critical challenges in national defense and enterprise
security infrastructure. Our investment decision is based on their proprietary
technology, deep domain expertise, and a proven track record in high-stakes,
mission-critical environments. We are partnering with Innefu to support their
growth ambitions as they prepare for public markets.&quot; 

Operational
Footprint and Market Context

The
domestic security technology market involves complex technical requirements
historically met by international defense vendors. Innefu&#039;s deployments include
several national scale AI intelligence fusion centres including India&#039;s first
National Terrorism Data Fusion Centre, Southeast Asia&#039;s largest operational
Intelligence Fusion Centre, Revenue Intelligence Fusion Platforms, Predictive
Policing Platforms, Indigenous open-source intelligence (OSINT) and Deep Web
Fusion Platform for Law Enforcement &amp; Defense Agencies.

Abhishek
Sharma, Co-Founder and CTO of Innefu Labs, added:
&quot;For over a decade, we&#039;ve solved mission-critical challenges for defense,
intelligence, and investigative agencies. As governments worldwide move toward
AI-driven decision-making, our mission is to build trusted, AI-first indigenous
platforms that strengthen national security and keep critical data &amp; platforms
sovereign. This funding accelerates our next chapter: advancing our Agentic AI
capabilities, venturing into Physical AI and robotics, and expanding globally,
building the full sovereign AI stack that high-trust environments demand&quot;

Krishan
Kant Rathi, Managing Partner at First Bridge Investment Managers, stated: “We
are proud to have backed Innefu Labs in 2017, recognizing its vision to build
AI-driven platforms for India’s critical sectors. It is immensely satisfying to
see Innefu emerge as a key technology partner for national intelligence and
investigative agencies. This funding round will further accelerate its growth
and global expansion.”

Panthera’s
second fund, backed by institutional investors from India, the European Union,
and the United States, focuses on growth-stage companies with established
product-market fit, deploying an average capital allocation of USD 20 million
per company across India and Southeast Asia. The firm’s historical portfolio
across its fund vehicles includes allocations in FoxTale, OfBusiness, Zivame,
Travelstack Tech, EMotorad, Flipspaces etc.

<title>Inside Akutee: How A Long&#45;Standing Painting Practice Found Its Way Into Clothing And Home</title>
<link>https://en.newsbolt.in/inside-akutee-how-a-long-standing-painting-practice-found-its-way-into-clothing-and-home</link>
<guid>https://en.newsbolt.in/inside-akutee-how-a-long-standing-painting-practice-found-its-way-into-clothing-and-home</guid>
<description><![CDATA[  

India, 11 June 2026 : For Urmila
Ghatge and Sagarika Z Ghatge, Akutee did not begin with a business plan, a
collection, or an intention to build a brand. It began much earlier, through a
relationship with painting, textiles, and the objects that gradually became
part of everyday life.

 

What
began as a personal artistic practice eventually became part of the visual
environment Sagarika grew up around. For over four decades, Urmila Ghatge has
painted by hand. Amongst her many artistically rich craftsmanship, her floral
motifs appeared on garments she wore, fabrics around the home, and objects
collected over time. 

 

When
Akutee was
established, that practice naturally found expression through clothing.
Hand-painted garments became the first extension of a language that had already
existed within the family for generations.

 

Over
time, the same sensibility extended beyond the wardrobe. Through Akutee
Home, hand-painting now appears across
furnishings, lampshades, textiles, and bespoke pieces created for homes and
hospitality environments.

 

Rather
than approaching clothing and home as separate categories, Akutee sees both as
part of the same continuum - shaped by material, memory, and the way people choose
to live with the things around them.

 

Speaking
about the evolution of the practice, Sagarika Z Ghatge said, “A lot of what
informs Akutee already existed around us long before we thought of creating a
brand, whether it was my mother&#039;s paintings, the fabrics we grew up with, or
the way spaces and objects were lived with over time. We simply continued what
felt natural to us. There was never a deliberate distinction between clothing
and home because both came from the same place. The paintings, the textiles,
the objects, the spaces - they were always part of the same environment.”

 

Today,
Akutee continues across both clothing and home through a shared artistic
language shaped by hand-painting, conversance, and a practice that has evolved
gradually over time.

 

About Akutee

 

Founded
by Urmila Ghatge and Sagarika Z Ghatge, Akutee brings together clothing and
home through a long-standing hand-painting practice. Across Akutee Store and
Akutee Home, the work draws from textiles, paintings, objects, and references
that have remained part of everyday life across generations. The result is a
body of work that extends across wardrobes, interiors, and hospitality spaces
while remaining rooted in the same artistic foundation. ]]></description>

<title>ISB Discover Highlights Research on Climate Resilience, Sustainable Development, and Environmental Governance</title>

<guid>https://en.newsbolt.in/isb-discover-highlights-research-on-climate-resilience-sustainable-development-and-environmental-governance</guid>
<description><![CDATA[  

Hyderabad,
June 11, 2026 : Building on themes highlighted around World
Environment Day, the Indian School of Business (ISB) continues to spotlight
research on climate resilience, sustainable development, and environmental
governance through its knowledge platform, ISB Discover.

As
climate change, water scarcity, biodiversity loss, and environmental
degradation pose growing challenges globally, the research featured on ISB
Discover highlights how effective environmental action requires integrating
sustainability with livelihoods, financial inclusion, resource governance, and
climate adaptation.

ISB
Discover translates rigorous academic research into accessible and actionable
insights for practitioners, policymakers, business leaders, and journalists,
helping to bridge the gap between scholarship and real-world impact.

Key
insights from ISB Discover&#039;s research include:

●       
Forest conservation must prioritise people,
not just trees: Community-centred approaches can improve the
effectiveness and long-term sustainability of conservation efforts.

●       
Financial inclusion can strengthen climate
resilience: Expanding access to financial services can
help vulnerable communities manage risk and recover more effectively from
climate-related disruptions.

●       
Millets can support sustainable agriculture:
Crop diversification can improve farm profitability while enhancing resource
efficiency and resilience to climate-related risks.

●       
Himalayan farmers offer lessons in climate
adaptation: Local knowledge and community-led innovation
can play an important role in building resilience to environmental change.

●       
India&#039;s forest economy needs greater
visibility: Better measurement of forest-based economic
activity can support more informed policy, investment, and sustainability
decisions.

●       
Women bear a disproportionate burden of
climate change: More inclusive decision-making can strengthen
the effectiveness of climate adaptation and resilience strategies.

●       
Groundwater governance requires urgent reform:
Sustainable water management depends on stronger institutions, better
incentives, and more effective coordination among stakeholders.

Professor
Karthik Balakrishnan, Deputy Dean - Faculty and Research, ISB,
said, &quot;Environmental challenges do not exist in isolation — they are
deeply interconnected with questions of livelihoods, governance, equity, and
economic development. As a business school, ISB sits at the intersection of
these forces, and we believe the private sector has both the responsibility and
the capability to be part of the solution. Through rigorous research, we seek
to generate insights that help policymakers, businesses, and practitioners
design strategies that are both sustainable and commercially viable.&quot;

The
research featured on ISB Discover reflects ISB&#039;s commitment to addressing
complex societal challenges through interdisciplinary scholarship. By bringing
together expertise in public policy, economics, sustainability, technology, and
management, the school continues to contribute to evidence-based discussions on
India&#039;s development priorities.  

Through
articles, explainers, videos, podcasts, and expert commentary, ISB Discover
makes cutting-edge research accessible to a wider audience and supports
informed decision-making across sectors.

About
the Indian School of Business (ISB)

The
Indian School of Business (ISB) is India’s highest-ranked business school and
features in the top league of several global business school rankings. A
vibrant pool of research-oriented resident faculty, robust academic
partnerships, a thriving alumni network, the backing of an influential board,
and the guidance of the industry’s thought leadership have enabled ISB to fast
emerge and consolidate itself as a premier global business school that grooms
future leaders for India and the world. ]]></description>

<title>The Indian E&#45;Commerce Bet Nobody Made: Letting People Bargain | Gajab.com</title>
<link>https://en.newsbolt.in/the-indian-e-commerce-bet-nobody-made-letting-people-bargain-gajabcom</link>

<description><![CDATA[  

11 June 2026 :  Walk through any market in India (the wholesale gullies of Surat, the morning
mandis of Pune, the kirana lanes of Lucknow, the crowded electronics markets of
Chennai) and you will hear the same low hum of commerce. Prices being named.
Countered. Pushed back on. Adjusted. And finally, with some performance of
reluctant agreement on both sides, landed on. The transaction completes.
Everyone moves on.

This is not a habit
that is fading. According to a joint report by Boston Consulting Group and the
Retailers Association of India, more than 80% of
India&#039;s $940 billion retail market is still unorganised: the local
stores, street markets and neighbourhood vendors where bargaining is simply how
things work. The same report confirms that over
58% of all Indian retail purchases still happen offline, even as
India has become the world&#039;s third-largest market for online shoppers.

A separate PwC Global Consumer Insights Pulse Survey, India perspective
(June 2023) finds that around 66% of Indian consumers, well above the global
figure of 56%, almost always or frequently use their smartphone to research
products for competitive prices, special offers and availability before
purchasing. India is not price-passive online. It is actively searching for a
better deal. It just cannot ask for one.

India&#039;s e-commerce
industry, valued at $125 billion in 2024 and among the fastest-growing in the
world, has not found a way to include any of it.

That is the gap a new
platform called Gajab.com is now attempting to close.

What
E-Commerce Took Away

The story of Indian
e-commerce is largely a story of convenience. Faster delivery, cleaner
interfaces, one-click payments, next-day fulfilment; every major improvement
has been about removing friction from the path between buyer and product.

What did not survive
this process was the buyer&#039;s voice in setting the price.

In traditional Indian
retail, pricing is not a finished statement; it is the opening of a
conversation. The seller names a number. The buyer reacts. Something happens in
between that gives both sides a sense of having arrived at a fair outcome
together. This is what Indian shoppers mean when they talk about a bargain. Not
the discount. The process.

“The
buyer can accept or leave, but they cannot participate. That layer of the
transaction has been designed out of existence.”

Indian e-commerce
replaced this process entirely. Discounts are real, but they are the platform&#039;s
decisions. Coupons exist, but they appear when the platform decides. Flash
sales create urgency, but not agency. The power to influence the final price
has never passed to the buyer&#039;s side of the screen.

What makes this more
notable is that it was not inevitable. International platforms like eBay had
built pricing flexibility into their models through bidding and offer
mechanisms long before Indian e-commerce scaled. A buyer in Germany or
Singapore could submit an offer on a listing and bargain toward a price. That
feature never made it into the Indian shopping experience, despite India being,
by most measures, the world’s most price-sensitive large consumer market.

The
Founder

Shahnawaz Merchant, who
founded Gajab, spent years as a seller on international e-commerce platforms
including eBay, trading with buyers across Singapore, the United States, the
Middle East and Germany. The contrast he observed there was direct.
International buyers on those platforms could make offers. They could submit a
number and wait to see what happened. That back-and-forth (the digital
equivalent of the bazaar exchange) was built into the experience as a standard
feature.

Indian e-commerce
offered none of this. The platforms had chosen speed and scale over
participation. Merchant watched the industry move further in that direction,
more automated, more frictionless, more fixed, while the country’s actual
retail behaviour stayed stubbornly unchanged in its preference for the bargain.

The
Platform

Gajab, available on
Android, iOS and at gajab.com, is built on a single premise: give the buyer a
say in the price.

The platform lets
buyers submit what they consider a fair price for any listed product (what
Gajab calls the buyer’s &quot;Mera Right
Price&quot;), a deliberate play on MRP (Maximum Retail Price), the
printed figure that has always told Indian consumers what a product costs,
without ever asking what they think it should.

An automated bargaining
engine evaluates each offer against the seller’s pre-set floor price and
parameters and responds, without any direct interaction between buyer and
seller being required. Sellers define their floor and their bargaining range at
the time of listing. Buyers submit an offer. The platform handles the exchange.
The average bargain completes in under 30
seconds, faster than checking prices across two competing apps.

Gajab has launched in
beta across India with 5,000 SKUs across three
categories: toys and games, home and kitchen, and stationery. The
company is targeting 25,000 SKUs before the end
of the current quarter, more than doubling its opening catalogue
within 90 days of going live.

The category choices
carry a logic. Toys and games are bought for occasions (birthdays, festivals,
gifts), making buyers particularly price-conscious and motivated to seek a
better deal. Home and kitchen and stationery are repeat-purchase categories
where comparison shopping is already standard behaviour. These are buyers who
are, in effect, already looking for their right price. Gajab is the first
platform to let them say it.

What
Early Users Found

Among buyers who tried
the beta, Goutham from Bangalore described his first experience plainly. &quot;Finding
a bargain feature like this online was a complete surprise,&quot; he said.
&quot;I loved my first bargain and placed my order right away.&quot;

On the seller&#039;s side,
Sagar Navapara, Proprietor of Unique International, said the speed of his first
conversion stood out. &quot;I got my first order within three days of going
live on Gajab. It is the easiest marketplace I have listed on.&quot;

The Larger Bet

The problem Gajab is
attempting to solve is hard to dismiss. Deloitte and FICCI data shows that Tier
2 and Tier 3 cities now account for over 60% of e-commerce transactions in
India. These are markets where bargaining has not retreated into nostalgia. It
is a current behaviour, practised daily in physical retail. As digital commerce
expands deeper into Bharat, the gap between how those consumers shop offline
and what online platforms offer them is not closing. It may, in fact, be
widening.

Indian e-commerce has
spent a decade asking India to shop differently.

“Gajab
is asking India to shop like itself.”

<title>Entrepreneur S M Tehseen Expands Advisory Practice as Founders Move Toward Lean, AI Driven Operations</title>

<description><![CDATA[ Founder of Cozystayz, Fedorino and Geekynd
opens a limited set of consulting and micro investment engagements for early
stage businesses focused on efficiency over headcount

India, [11/06/2026] : Entrepreneur, micro
investor and growth partner S M Tehseen has expanded his advisory practice,
opening a limited number of consulting and micro investment engagements for
early stage founders who want to scale without the weight of oversized teams
and fixed costs. The move responds to a clear shift among founders who are now
judged on efficiency as much as on growth.

The change reflects a wider correction
across markets. After a prolonged funding slowdown and rising operating costs,
the familiar pattern of hiring quickly and repairing operations later has
become difficult to sustain. The alternative gaining ground is to build leaner
from the outset, with documented systems and artificial intelligence handling
work that once demanded steadily growing headcount.

&quot;Most early founders do not have a
growth problem, they have a leverage problem,&quot; said S M Tehseen, founder
of Geekynd. &quot;They are doing too much by hand and hiring too early to cover
for systems that were never built properly. The work I do with them is about
fixing that order, building lean operations, applying AI where it genuinely
saves time, and getting the backbone right before scale, not after something
breaks.&quot;

Tehseen&#039;s view is grounded in operating
experience across three very different sectors. He is the founder of Cozystayz,
a boutique hospitality venture, Fedorino, a haute couture label, and Geekynd,
an AI powered growth partner that runs customer support, virtual assistance and
backend operations for fast moving brands through dedicated remote teams.
Building companies in hospitality, fashion and digital services has produced an
unusually broad view of what slows businesses down, which is seldom a shortage
of ambition and more often operational drag: unclear processes, premature
hiring, scattered tools and a founder who has quietly become the bottleneck.

That diagnosis shapes the practice. In
place of generic strategy decks, the focus stays on the operating layer of a
business, how work moves, where time leaks, which tasks belong to automation,
which belong to a remote team, and which a founder should stop doing
altogether. The intended outcome is leverage, allowing revenue to rise without
cost and complexity climbing at the same rate.

Artificial intelligence runs through the
approach, though with a deliberate qualification. The opportunity for a smaller
business, in this framing, is practical rather than theatrical.

&quot;AI is not about replacing a team with
a chatbot,&quot; Tehseen said. &quot;For a small business it is leverage. The
right tools let a lean team deliver more, respond faster and spend their hours
on the work that actually moves the business, instead of the work a system
should be handling on its own.&quot;

Alongside consulting and advisory
engagements, Tehseen remains an active micro investor, backing a select group
of early stage founders. Those investments are paired with hands on operational
support rather than capital alone, an approach built on the belief that first
time founders gain more from a partner inside the work than from funding by
itself.

The same body of work has positioned
Tehseen as a speaker on entrepreneurship, operations and the everyday
application of AI in lean businesses, with attention to the less glamorous
fundamentals: cash discipline, operating systems, timing a hire correctly, and
the distance between motion and genuine progress.

The timing is intentional. As more founders
set out to do more with less, a gap is widening between businesses that treat
operations and AI as an afterthought and those that design them in from the
first day. The expanded practice is aimed squarely at the second group. A
limited number of consulting, advisory, micro investment and speaking
engagements are open at present.

About S M Tehseen S M Tehseen is an
entrepreneur, micro investor, business consultant, speaker and author based in
India. He is the founder of Cozystayz (boutique hospitality), Fedorino (haute
couture) and Geekynd (an AI powered growth partner for fast moving brands).
Drawing on operating experience across hospitality, fashion and digital
services, he works with early stage and growing founders on growth strategy,
operational design, remote team structures and the practical use of AI in lean
businesses. Learn more at https://smtehseen.com

<title>Rainbow Children&amp;apos;s Hospital Achieves One of India&amp;apos;s Longest duration Pediatric ECMO Air Retrievals, Saves 8&#45;Year&#45;Old Boy After 36 Days on Life Support</title>

<description><![CDATA[ ●       
Rainbow&#039;s ECMO Retrieval Team flew over 3,600
km to bring a critically ill child from Guwahati to Hyderabad, marking the
first reported pediatric ECMO from North East India

●       
Child survived severe Influenza B pneumonia
after spending 36 days on ECMO, making it one of the longest pediatric ECMO
support cases involving air transport in the country

Hyderabad, 11th
June, 2026 : An 8-year-old boy from Guwahati who was
fighting for every breath after a severe Influenza B infection has made a
remarkable recovery following a complex cross-country rescue mission by Rainbow
Children&#039;s Hospital, Hyderabad, India&#039;s leading pediatric multi-specialty and
perinatal care hospital chain. The child was airlifted on ECMO support from
Guwahati to Hyderabad and went on to survive 36 days on advanced life support,
making it one of the country&#039;s most extraordinary pediatric ECMO recoveries.

The child was admitted
to a hospital in Guwahati with severe pneumonia caused by Influenza B
infection. Despite being on a ventilator for nearly a week, his condition
continued to deteriorate, and his oxygen levels remained critically low. With
conventional treatment options exhausted, Rainbow Children&#039;s Hospital activated
its specialized ECMO Retrieval Team to undertake a highly complex rescue mission.

The mission was led by
Dr. Kapil B. Sachane, Pediatric ECMO Specialist at Rainbow Children&#039;s Hospital,
Hyderabad. The team travelled from Hyderabad to Guwahati, where they
established and initiated ECMO support at the referring hospital itself, demonstrating
the capability to deliver advanced life support directly at the bedside, even
in distant locations.

The team initiated
Venovenous Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation (VV ECMO), an advanced
life-support therapy used when the lungs can no longer provide adequate oxygen
to the body. Once the child was stabilized on ECMO, he was airlifted nearly
1,800 kilometres to Hyderabad for advanced critical care.

The retrieval operation
involved a total travel distance of more than 3,600 kilometres by the Rainbow team
and approximately 24 hours from ECMO initiation to successful handover in
Hyderabad. To the hospital&#039;s knowledge, this represents one of the
longest-duration pediatric ECMO air retrievals reported in India and the first
pediatric ECMO from North East India.



What followed was an
equally challenging battle. The child remained on ECMO support for over five
weeks, requiring round-the-clock multidisciplinary care from pediatric
intensivists, ECMO specialists, cardiologists, cardiac surgeons, perfusionists,
nurses, respiratory therapists and rehabilitation specialists. During his stay,
he developed a difficult-to-treat infection, further complicating his recovery.

Despite the odds, the
young patient gradually improved. After 36 days on ECMO support, he was successfully
weaned off ECMO and continued to make steady progress. He is now clinically
stable and ready to return home to his family.

&quot;When we first
evaluated the child in Guwahati, his lungs had been severely damaged by the
infection and conventional ventilation was no longer enough to sustain him.
ECMO was his only chance. Transporting a critically ill child on ECMO across
such a long distance is a highly complex operation that requires coordination
at every step. Our team was able to establish ECMO support directly at the
referring hospital before transport, which is critical in such time-sensitive
situations. What makes this case even more remarkable is that the retrieval was
only the beginning. He remained on ECMO for 36 days and battled several complications
before gradually recovering. Watching him walk out of the hospital and prepare
to return home is the greatest reward for our entire team,&quot; said Dr.
Kapil B Sachane, Pediatric Intensivist and ECMO Specialist, Rainbow Children&#039;s
Hospital, Hyderabad.

Rainbow Children&#039;s
Hospital, Hyderabad, has developed India&#039;s only dedicated Pediatric ECMO
Retrieval Programme capable of initiating ECMO support in critically ill
children at remote locations and safely transporting them over long distances
to specialized centres. The programme is designed to bridge critical gaps in
access to advanced pediatric life support, ensuring that geography does not
limit a child&#039;s chances of survival during medical emergencies.

We have done 42
Paediatric &amp; Newborn ECMO in our centre and our outcomes are comparable to
best centres in world said Dr Farhan AR Shaikh, HOD-Paediatric Intensive
Care, Rainbow Children’s Hospital, Hyderabad. 

Because of excellent
PICU team work, nursing staff and support from Paediatric subspecialist we are
able to save such sick children &amp; newborn. We have best survival rates in
Paediatric Neuro Critical Care patients and also post Liver and BMT patients
said Dr Dinesh Kumar Chirla, Director – Intensive Care Services, Rainbow
Children’s Hospital, Hyderabad.

The case underscores
how advanced pediatric retrieval services are transforming access to critical
care in India, enabling children in distant parts of the country to receive
highly specialized treatment that was once available only in a handful of centres.
For families facing life-threatening medical emergencies, geography no longer
has to determine outcomes.

<description><![CDATA[  

Sonipat,
June 11, 2026: Jindal Global Business School (JGBS) of O.P.
Jindal Global University (JGU) has signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU)
with the Chetak Foundation, the skill-development and social initiative of the
Chetak Group. The partnership will anchor a new industry course on transport
operations, designed to take JGBS students out of the lecture hall and into
Chetak’s live operations across warehouses, fleet control centers and freight
corridors. It is the latest in a series of industry-integrated electives JGBS
is building as part of its wider effort to root management education in real
industry settings.

Headquartered
in New Delhi, the Chetak Group is one of India’s established multimodal
logistics players, with operations spanning road transport, warehousing, freight
forwarding and integrated supply chain solutions for a wide cross-section of
Indian industry. The Chetak Foundation, set up by the Group, focuses on
building employability and industry-ready skills for India’s young workforce.
JGBS, on its part, is India’s top ranked private university B-school in the QS
World University Rankings by Subject 2026, and sits among the top 200 business
schools in the world in the same ranking.

The
course arrives at a meaningful moment for the sector. The global multimodal
transport market is projected to grow at a compound annual growth rate of
roughly six to seven percent over the next decade. This growth is expected to
create immense career and growth opportunities for students and budding
entrepreneurs and requirement for managerial talent that understands both the
operations and the analytics of modern logistics. The JGBS-Chetak course is
built for exactly that demand. The pedagogical design of the course has been
structured to ensure JGBS students develop analytical readiness in the
classroom before stepping into live field environments. The intent is to move
JGBS students from knowing to doing, and then to learning from doing.

Professor
(Dr.) C. Raj Kumar, Founding Vice Chancellor, JGU said:
“Logistics is not a peripheral story in India’s development today; it sits
at the centre of how the country grows, trades and creates jobs, and a business
school has to prepare its students to navigate that reality. Our partnership
with the Chetak Foundation gives our management students access to an
operational environment where they can observe the inner workings of supply
chains and logistics networks, ask the questions that practitioners confront
every day and propose solutions that will be evaluated in real-world
operations. As an Institution of Eminence, JGU is dedicated to contributing to
national growth by training a skilled youth workforce for the nation’s talent
pool and this partnership reaffirms our steadfast commitment to that mission.”

Under
the terms of the MoU, JGBS students will get structured access to Chetak’s
operational ecosystem through internships, on-site visits to warehouses,
transport yards and freight hubs, and industry-led sessions delivered by senior
logistics and supply chain professionals from the Chetak Group.

Mr.
Mukesh Haritash, Managing Director, Chetak Group, said: “We
are thrilled to partner with Jindal Global Business School to bridge the gap
between academic excellence and practical industry needs. By combining Chetak
Group’s deep logistics expertise and Chetak Foundation’s commitment to skill
development with JGU’s world-class education, we aim to equip the next
generation of leaders with real-world skills. This collaboration reflects our
shared vision of empowering youth and driving sustainable, knowledge-led growth
for the nation.”

Professor
(Dr.) Dabiru Sridhar Patnaik, Registrar, JGU said: “The
Chetak Foundation’s skill-development mandate sits well with the kind of
long-running student engagements we want to build, and we look forward to seeing
this work mature across cohorts. JGU and JGBS have been working to integrate
its curriculum closely with industry requirements, and tie-ups of this depth
are how we make that direction concrete for our students.”

Key
areas of cooperation under the agreement include a knowledge partnership for
courses in supply chain, logistics and allied areas, industry guest lectures
delivered on the JGU campus, and joint research between Chetak professionals
and JGBS faculty members.

The
Dean of the Jindal Global Business School, Professor (Dr.) Mayank Dhaundiyal
said: “I am very pleased about this association
with the Chetak Foundation. Multimodal logistics is one of the most exciting
parts of the Indian growth story right now, and our students will work on live
problem statements drawn directly from Chetak’s operations, the kind of issues
that supply chain managers are working through on any given day. The exposure
complements the case work, simulations and other experiential pieces we are
building into the classroom, and it helps students see how the ideas they study
actually play out in practice. We want our graduates leaving JGBS with more
than a strong transcript. We want them leaving with the judgement and the
industry sense that this kind of partnership is uniquely placed to build.”

For
JGBS students, the partnership is finally about getting closer to how the
logistics industry actually works on the ground. They will work on live problem
statements with professionals from the Chetak Group, taking ideas like network
design, fleet utilization, warehousing efficiency and last-mile delivery out of
the classroom and into real business settings. Beyond the live projects and
site visits, the collaboration will also bring Chetak’s senior leadership to
the JGU campus for guest sessions, giving students a sense of how operating
decisions are actually made inside a working logistics business. ]]></description>

<title>Group Pharmaceuticals Launches ‘Abledent’ &#45; India’s First Inclusive Oral Care Ecosystem Designed for Real&#45;World Needs</title>
<link>https://en.newsbolt.in/group-pharmaceuticals-launches-abledent-indias-first-inclusive-oral-care-ecosystem-designed-for-real-world-needs</link>
<guid>https://en.newsbolt.in/group-pharmaceuticals-launches-abledent-indias-first-inclusive-oral-care-ecosystem-designed-for-real-world-needs</guid>
<description><![CDATA[ Bangalore,
11th June 2026 : Group Pharmaceuticals, a trusted name in the
oral healthcare industry with over 45 years of expertise, recently announced
the launch of Abledent in Bangalore. The
launch event brought together healthcare professionals, caregivers, and
industry stakeholders, underscoring the urgent need for more inclusive and
patient-centric oral care solutions in India. 

In
India, the need for assisted daily care, including oral hygiene, is rapidly
growing across age groups. While 1 in every 20 elderly individuals live with
some form of disability and nearly 40% of those aged 60+ face functional or
health-related limitations, children and adults with disabilities,
neurodivergent individuals, and those with special healthcare needs along with
the caregivers who support them continue to face significant barriers to safe
and accessible oral care. Despite this growing need, access to specialised and
user-friendly oral care solutions tailored for assisted care remains limited in
the country. Abledent has been developed with a clear purpose: to make daily
oral hygiene safer, simpler, and more accessible for children and adults with
disabilities, neurodivergent individuals, the elderly, hospitalised patients,
individuals with temporary or permanent mobility challenges, and those
dependent on caregivers.

Developed
through extensive clinical insight and real-world research by Group
Pharmaceuticals, Abledent offers safe if swallowed, non-foaming toothpastes for
those unable to rinse or spit; fluoride-free and remineralising formulations
for sensitive and medically vulnerable users; mouthwashes for enhanced enamel
protection; and no-rinse oral care wipes for hospitalised and dependent care
settings. The range also features inclusive packaging such as easy-open caps
and braille and is built to overcome practical challenges including gag reflex,
sensory sensitivities, mobility limitations, and caregiver-assisted routines -
gaps long ignored by conventional oral care. 

Speaking
about the launch, Mr. Nikhil Kaushik, CEO- Group Pharmaceuticals said,
“Healthy smiles are a birthright-not a privilege. With Abledent, we are
addressing a critical gap in oral care by creating solutions that are not only
clinically relevant but also empathetic to the real-world challenges faced by
individuals with disabilities, children with special needs, patients and
caregivers. For far too long, people with special oral care needs have had to
adapt to products that were never designed for them. Abledent changes that by
putting their dignity, comfort, and independence at the center of innovation.”

India’s
oral care market has long overlooked the needs of dependent and special-care
populations. The initiative is further strengthened by the Able Smile Community, an
effort to build awareness, share resources, and create a supportive ecosystem
for caregivers and individuals navigating assisted oral care. With this launch,
Group Pharmaceuticals aims to introduce a new category of oral care in India,
and spark greater awareness and conversation around inclusive healthcare, where
accessibility and dignity are built into everyday solutions.

<title>MuscleBlaze Biozyme&amp;apos;s New Film Reframes &amp;apos;Gut Feeling&amp;apos; and Puts Ashneer Grover&amp;apos;s Instincts to the Test</title>

<guid>https://en.newsbolt.in/muscleblaze-biozymes-new-film-reframes-gut-feeling-and-puts-ashneer-grovers-instincts-to-the-test</guid>
<description><![CDATA[ MuscleBlaze latest campaign, &quot;Lighter Gut,
Better Gut Feeling,&quot; created for Biozyme Performance Whey. The
campaign seeks to move beyond traditional conversations around protein quantity
and place greater emphasis on smoother digestion and protein absorption.

To bring the idea to life, MuscleBlaze has released a
humorous film featuring Ashneer Grover known for his sharp business
instincts and surprisingly invests. In the film, Grover follows his
instincts and backs an absurd business idea, only to discover that his &quot;gut
feeling&quot; was completely wrong. The narrative cleverly connects a
familiar phrase with a conversation about smoother digestion and higher protein
absorption.

According to the brand, many consumers experience
bloating, heaviness and digestive discomfort after consuming protein
supplements. However, these symptoms are often accepted as normal rather than
being recognised as signs that the body may not be optimally processing the
product.

The campaign positions Biozyme Performance Whey as a
science-backed solution designed to improve protein absorption and digestive
comfort. It is independently blind tested by Labdoor (USA), Informed Choice
(UK), and Trustified (Asia), more third-party certifications than any other
whey brand in the market.  More
importantly, it attempts to educate consumers about the role the gut plays in
determining the overall effectiveness of sports nutrition products.

&quot;Bloating and heaviness after a protein shake are
not new complaints, consumers have been talking about this for years. What&#039;s
been missing is a brand willing to back that conversation with real science.
Biozyme Performance Whey is built on two US patents for 50% higher protein
absorption and independently tested by four global certification bodies. That&#039;s
not a marketing claim, that&#039;s a credential no other whey brand in India holds.
But science alone doesn&#039;t change behaviour. We chose humour and a culturally
loaded personality like Ashneer Grover because we wanted this message to
travel.  to reach people who&#039;ve never
thought about protein absorption, not just those who already care about it.
Sometimes the most serious insight lands hardest when it makes you laugh
first.&quot; mentioned Kaustuv Paliwal, Senior Vice President, Bright
Lifecare  (parent company of
MuscleBlaze).

By combining humour with education, MuscleBlaze hopes
to make a technical conversation more relatable and accessible to everyday
consumers.

<title>Building More Than a Portfolio Tracker: How Kanisk Bora Is Creating Capitallytics, an AI&#45;Powered Investment Intelligence Platform</title>
<link>https://en.newsbolt.in/building-more-than-a-portfolio-tracker-how-kanisk-bora-is-creating-capitallytics-an-ai-powered-investment-intelligence-platform</link>
<guid>https://en.newsbolt.in/building-more-than-a-portfolio-tracker-how-kanisk-bora-is-creating-capitallytics-an-ai-powered-investment-intelligence-platform</guid>
<description><![CDATA[  

The
world has no shortage of investment apps.

Investors
can buy stocks with a few taps, track portfolios across multiple brokers, and
access endless streams of financial news. Yet despite the explosion of fintech
products, one major problem remains unsolved: investors still struggle to see
the complete picture of their financial world in one place.

That
challenge is what inspired 25-year-old entrepreneur Kanisk Bora to build
Capitallytics.

Rather
than creating another stock market application, Bora’s vision is to build an
AI-powered investment intelligence platform that helps investors track,
analyze, and understand their investments through a single ecosystem. At a time
when financial information is scattered across multiple platforms,
Capitallytics aims to bring everything together and transform raw market data
into actionable insights.

The
Idea Behind Capitallytics

Modern
investors often use several different tools simultaneously. One platform is
used for portfolio tracking, another for stock research, another for market
news, and yet another for analytics.

While
these tools solve individual problems, they rarely provide a unified
experience.

Kanisk
Bora saw an opportunity to change that.

His
goal with Capitallytics is to create a platform where investors can monitor
portfolios, track market performance, receive AI-powered insights, and stay
informed about global markets without switching between multiple applications.

Instead
of focusing solely on data, the platform focuses on helping investors
understand what that data means.

Building
an AI-Powered Financial Ecosystem

Capitallytics
is being developed around a simple philosophy: investing should be intelligent,
accessible, and efficient.

The
platform is designed to cover multiple asset classes, allowing users to track
investments across:

●       
Indian Stocks (NSE &amp; BSE)

●       
US Stocks (NYSE &amp; Nasdaq)

●       
ETFs

●       
Mutual Funds

●       
Bonds and Fixed Income Securities

●       
Major Global Indices

With
thousands of financial instruments available across different markets,
investors often face information overload. Capitallytics seeks to solve this
problem by combining real-time market data with artificial intelligence to
deliver insights that are easy to understand and act upon.

One
of the platform’s most ambitious features is its AI CFO, an intelligent
assistant that helps users analyze portfolios, understand market movements,
compare investments, and gain deeper insights into their financial decisions.

The
objective is not simply to display information but to make that information
useful.

Why
This Matters Now

Retail
investing has experienced tremendous growth over the last decade.

Millions
of new investors have entered financial markets, driven by greater access to
technology and financial education. However, while investing has become more
accessible, the tools available to investors have often become increasingly
fragmented.

Today’s
investors want more than portfolio tracking.

They
want real-time insights, personalized analysis, intelligent alerts, and a
clearer understanding of risk and opportunity.

Artificial
intelligence is making these capabilities possible.

As
AI continues to reshape industries worldwide, its impact on investing is
becoming increasingly significant. From portfolio analysis to market research,
AI-powered tools are helping investors process information faster and make more
informed decisions.

Capitallytics
is being built at the intersection of these trends.

The
Founder Behind the Vision

Kanisk
Bora’s entrepreneurial journey is rooted in identifying problems and building
practical solutions.

As
the founder of Capitallytics, Bora is focused on creating technology that
empowers investors rather than overwhelming them.

At
just 25 years old, he represents a new generation of founders who view
artificial intelligence not as a replacement for human decision-making but as a
tool that can enhance it.

His
vision for Capitallytics extends beyond portfolio tracking.

The
long-term goal is to create a complete investment intelligence ecosystem where
investors can access market data, portfolio analytics, AI-driven insights, and
financial education from a single platform.

Looking
Ahead

The
future of investing will likely be shaped by platforms that combine real-time
data, intelligent analytics, and personalized experiences.

As
markets become more complex and investors gain access to a wider range of
financial products, the demand for smarter tools will continue to grow.

Capitallytics
is positioning itself to meet that demand.

By
combining global market coverage, advanced analytics, and artificial
intelligence, the platform aims to simplify investing while helping users make
better-informed decisions.

For
Kanisk Bora, the mission is clear: build a platform that gives investors
clarity in a world overloaded with financial information.

While
the journey is still in its early stages, Capitallytics reflects a growing
shift within fintech—one where technology is not only helping people invest but
helping them understand their investments in a completely new way.

And
that is the opportunity Kanisk is betting on.

<title>MKU Becomes a Name to Watch in Military&#45;Grade Electro&#45;Optics</title>
<link>https://en.newsbolt.in/mku-becomes-a-name-to-watch-in-military-grade-electro-optics</link>
<guid>https://en.newsbolt.in/mku-becomes-a-name-to-watch-in-military-grade-electro-optics</guid>
<description><![CDATA[ As
modern conflicts increasingly shift toward around-the-clock operations, the
ability to see, identify, and engage threats in challenging environments has
become a decisive battlefield advantage. Night dominance is now a fundamental
operational requirement for soldiers, special forces, vehicle-mounted crews,
aviators, and security forces alike.

Against
this backdrop, MKU Limited
has built a comprehensive electro-optics portfolio through its dedicated
optronics division, Netro Optronics. The company provides advanced multi-sensor
electro-optic solutions for situational awareness, surveillance,
reconnaissance, and target acquisition across soldier and platform domains. Its
portfolio spans night vision, thermal, fusion, day-channel systems, driver
night sights, Vision-360 see-through armour, and bespoke EO integrations
powered by MKU’s indigenous thermal core technology.

Building a Complete
Optronics System

Under
the Netro brand, MKU offers solutions covering night enablement and situational
awareness systems for armoured vehicles, thermal weapon sights and target
acquisition systems, aviation-focused night vision solutions, night upgrade
kits for weapons and air defence systems, and night vision systems for infantry
and special operations forces.

These
solutions enable operators to maintain effectiveness across urban operations,
dense forests, deserts, mountains, maritime zones, and extreme winter
conditions.

MKU
places a strong emphasis on platform optronics, where persistent surveillance
and 360-degree situational awareness are redefining armoured warfare. The TD
5100 Driver Night Sight for AFVs and APCs enables safe manoeuvring in
zero-light conditions, while the TDP 5200 Vision 360 See-Through Armour system
provides a stitched mixed-reality view through a head-mounted display, allowing
crews to navigate and detect threats without exposure.

Its
soldier optronics suite extends these capabilities to the tactical edge. Thermal
weapon sights such as the TW 4006, TW 4000 and TW 4100 enable rapid target
acquisition across lighting conditions and engagement ranges. The MW 5000
Sighting System enhances one-shot hit accuracy and target visibility, while the
NB 3300 dual-tube binocular and NM 3200 ultra-compact monocular provide
mobility and clarity during low-light operations.

Together,
these systems form a unified combat vision ecosystem, connecting platforms,
weapons, and soldiers into a seamless operational network. At Eurosatory 2026, MKU is demonstrating
how this integration is turning darkness into operational dominance, enabling
forces to detect earlier, decide faster, and respond with precision.

Backed
by One of India&#039;s Largest Electro-Optics Contracts

 Military electro-optics are only as good as
their performance in real-world conditions. Armed forces require systems
capable of functioning reliably in extreme cold, desert heat, high humidity,
dust-laden environments, heavy rainfall, and rugged battlefield conditions.

MKU’s
electro-optical products undergo extensive environmental qualification,
performance validation, and field trials before entering service. The Netro NW
3000, for example, underwent rigorous evaluation and extensive field testing
across varied operational environments before being selected by the Indian
Army.

The
company’s growing prominence was reinforced in 2025 when it secured one of the
largest electro-optics procurements ever placed by the Indian Army, winning a
contract worth ₹660 crore (around €70 million) for the supply of 29,000+ Netro
NW 3000 Night Vision Weapon Sights. Conducted under India’s Indigenously
Designed, Developed and Manufactured (IDDM) category, the procurement
represents a major endorsement of the company’s technological maturity.

MKU&#039;s
electro-optics capabilities have gained traction across both domestic and
international markets. The company has signed a contract with the Indian Army
for 5,000 Thermal Weapon Sights and has already delivered over 1,000 Thermal
Weapon Sights to the Moroccan Army, underscoring the operational relevance and
growing acceptance of its night-fighting solutions.

Aksion: The Thermal
Core That Changes the Equation

At
the core of MKU’s optronics journey is sustained investment in research and
development. The company has built multidisciplinary engineering teams
specialising in thermal imaging, sensor technologies, image processing,
embedded systems, optics, electronics, mechanical design, and battlefield
integration. This approach enables MKU to control key aspects of the
development cycle, from concept and design through prototyping, validation, and
production.

Perhaps
the most significant milestone in MKU’s electro-optics evolution is the
development of its own thermal imaging core, Netro Aksion. Thermal cores are
often described as the “engine” of thermal imaging systems, determining image
quality, detection range, processing capability, and overall system
performance.

Built
around a 12-micron sensor architecture, Aksion is engineered to deliver
superior image clarity, advanced image processing, faster target detection, and
low-latency performance under demanding mission conditions. Beyond technical
performance, indigenous thermal core technology strengthens intellectual
property ownership, improves supply-chain security, and enables future product
development across a wide range of defence and security platforms.

As
armed forces increasingly seek technology sovereignty alongside operational
superiority, MKU’s expanding electro-optics portfolio, indigenous innovation
capabilities, and large-scale deployment experience are positioning the company
as a name to watch in the global military electro-optics sector. ]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[ Noida,
Uttar Pradesh : Reinforcing its reputation as a leading
center for engineering education in India, Jaypee Institute of Information
Technology (JIIT) has been recognized among the reputed institutions and top
private engineering colleges in Uttar Pradesh in PW’s 2026 assessment of
engineering institutions. In the assessment, JIIT reportedly stands out for its
strong coding culture and placement performance amongst the engineering
colleges in Uttar Pradesh.

The
recognition by PW reflects JIIT’s sustained commitment to delivering quality
education while equipping students with the skills required to thrive in a
rapidly evolving technology landscape. As engineering aspirants increasingly
seek institutions that offer a balance of academic excellence, practical
exposure, and strong career prospects, JIIT has emerged as one of the preferred
choices for students across the country.

The
assessment further recognizes JIIT&#039;s emphasis on skill development and
technology-focused learning. The Institute consistently focuses on creating a
learning environment that nurtures problem-solving abilities, innovation, and
technical proficiency, enabling students to meet the demands of global
employers and future industries.

Established
as a center of excellence in engineering and technology education, JIIT (https://www.jiit.ac.in/)
is approved by the University Grants Commission (UGC) and the All India Council
for Technical Education (AICTE), while also holding accreditation from the
National Assessment and Accreditation Council (NAAC). These recognitions
underscore the institute’s commitment to maintaining high academic standards
and delivering a holistic educational experience.

One
of JIIT’s key strengths continues to be its strong placement performance. The
institute has reportedly recorded the highest placement package of ₹94.25 lakhs
for the 2026 graduating batch (₹62 lakhs for the 2025 batch), with an average
package of approximately ₹11.10 lakhs. Students have secured opportunities with
some of the world’s most prestigious organizations, including Google,
Microsoft, Morgan Stanley, Deloitte, and several other leading multinational
corporations.

Supporting
these achievements is JIIT’s dedicated Training and Placement Cell, which works
closely with students to enhance employability through internships, industry
engagement initiatives, skill-building programs, aptitude training, career
guidance, and recruitment preparation. The institute’s proactive approach
ensures that students are well-prepared to transition successfully from campus

domains shaping the future of engineering.

The
Institute’s academic offerings are complemented by a robust ecosystem of
advanced research and innovation infrastructure. Students benefit from access
to state-of-the-art facilities, including the Ramanujan Universe Supercomputing
Facility, AI Skill Lab, Apple Lab, Fortinet Cyber Security Lab, Internet of
Things (IoT) Lab, and a modern Digital Learning Center. These facilities
provide hands-on exposure to cutting-edge technologies while fostering a
culture of experimentation and interdisciplinary learning.

Industry
observers note that institutions capable of combining academic rigor with
industry relevance are increasingly becoming preferred destinations for
engineering aspirants. JIIT’s continued investments in emerging technologies,
research-driven learning, industry partnerships, and career development

<title>Rahul Mishra, Masaba Gupta and Jayanti Reddy on Human Intelligence, Artificial Intelligence and the Future of Creative Careers at Pearl Academy</title>
<link>https://en.newsbolt.in/rahul-mishra-masaba-gupta-and-jayanti-reddy-on-human-intelligence-artificial-intelligence-and-the-future-of-creative-careers-at-pearl-academy</link>
<guid>https://en.newsbolt.in/rahul-mishra-masaba-gupta-and-jayanti-reddy-on-human-intelligence-artificial-intelligence-and-the-future-of-creative-careers-at-pearl-academy</guid>
<description><![CDATA[ At
Pearl Academy&#039;s Global Icons Series, three of India&#039;s leading creative
entrepreneurs and designers shared why originality, craftsmanship,
entrepreneurial thinking and technological fluency will become the defining
skills of the AI era.

India,
June 2026 : At a time when artificial intelligence is
reshaping industries and challenging long-held assumptions about the future of
creative work, three of India&#039;s most influential creative entrepreneurs and
designers arrived at the same conclusion: the next generation will need far
more than talent alone to succeed. Internationally acclaimed couturier Rahul
Mishra, entrepreneur and business leader Masaba Gupta, and luxury bridal
designer Jayanti Reddy shared candid insights with students at Pearl Academy’s
Global Icons Series, emphasising that the future will belong to professionals
who can combine creativity, craftsmanship, business acumen and technological
fluency.

For
Rahul Mishra, the first Indian designer to become a regular presence on
the Paris Haute Couture calendar, AI represents a powerful collaborator, but
not a replacement for originality or craftsmanship. “We never design alone.
AI is simply another assistant, faster and wider in perspective. But the
physical making, the craftsmanship, the human hand, that remains irreplaceable.
Work on your craft. Nobody can take that away from you.” Mishra encouraged
students to use AI to accelerate research, challenge assumptions and test
originality, while investing more deeply in skills that machines cannot
replicate.

Masaba
Gupta, Founder of House of Masaba and LoveChild,
encouraged students to embrace AI as a tool that can unlock greater
productivity and creative possibilities. “AI will not replace you. It will
replace the person who doesn&#039;t embrace AI. People fear AI because it reveals
your true potential. The question is no longer whether something can be done
faster. The question is whether your thinking is sharp enough to make the most
of it.”

Jayanti
Reddy, whose label has grown from a single tailor
and sewing machine into one of India&#039;s leading luxury bridal businesses
supported by hundreds of artisans, highlighted an often-overlooked reality of
creative success: business discipline. “I spend only ten per cent of my time
creating today. The other ninety per cent is business. Designers often prepare
for the creative side but underestimate the importance of building systems,
teams and sustainable businesses.”

Beyond
the insights themselves, the sessions offered students a rare opportunity to
engage directly with some of the industry&#039;s most accomplished practitioners.
Through candid conversations and personal reflections, students at Pearl
Academy gained firsthand exposure to the realities of building brands,
navigating uncertainty, embracing innovation and sustaining creative careers at
the highest level.

The
Global Icons Series forms an important part of Pearl Academy’s experiential
learning approach, connecting students with industry leaders, entrepreneurs and
changemakers whose experiences help bridge the gap between classroom learning
and industry realities.

Aditi
Srivastava, President, Pearl Academy, said:
“The Global Icons Series reflects our belief that some of the most
meaningful learning comes from direct interactions with people who have built
their craft through lived experience and are candid about the realities of the
journey. Rahul, Masaba, and Jayanti offered students valuable perspectives to
reflect on their own aspirations and career paths. Combined with the skills and
AI literacy integrated across our programmes, this helps shape complete
professionals.”

The
conversations also reflected a broader transformation underway at Pearl
Academy. With a legacy of more than 33 years, the institution has reimagined
its academic framework around a Human Intelligence + Artificial Intelligence
philosophy that positions AI as a collaborator capable of enhancing creativity,
innovation and problem-solving.

At
the centre of this evolution is Pearl Academy&#039;s partnership with OpenAI and an
academic model in which more than one-third of the curriculum is AI-integrated.
Students engage with generative AI tools and AI-assisted workflows across
disciplines, preparing to be Domain Ready, AI Ready, Life Ready and Future
Ready. This ecosystem is further strengthened through initiatives such as the
Runway Incubator, which encourages experimentation, innovation and
entrepreneurial thinking.

As
conversations around AI continue to focus on automation and disruption, the
message from Rahul Mishra, Masaba Gupta, and Jayanti Reddy was notably
optimistic. The professionals who thrive in the years ahead will be those who
can combine the possibilities unlocked by technology with the imagination,
judgment, resilience and entrepreneurial mindset needed to turn ideas into
impact.

For
the next generation of creators, that future is already taking shape. ]]></description>

<title>Agami Realty Unveils Ultra Luxury Residential Address Agami Legends in Kalanagar, Endorsed by Sunil Gavaskar</title>
<link>https://en.newsbolt.in/agami-realty-unveils-ultra-luxury-residential-address-agami-legends-in-kalanagar-endorsed-by-sunil-gavaskar</link>
<guid>https://en.newsbolt.in/agami-realty-unveils-ultra-luxury-residential-address-agami-legends-in-kalanagar-endorsed-by-sunil-gavaskar</guid>
<description><![CDATA[ Mumbai,
June 09, 2026 : Mumbai-based developer Agami Realty has
announced its upcoming ultra-luxury residential address, Agami Legends, in
Kalanagar, Bandra (East), located directly facing the iconic MIG Cricket Club
and overlooking Mahim Bay. The development will also be endorsed by cricket
legend Sunil Gavaskar, who has recently joined the developer as its brand
ambassador. Widely regarded as one of the most respected figures in Indian
cricket, Gavaskar’s legacy closely mirrors the values that the developer seeks
to bring to its developments.

“I
have always believed that legacy is built through discipline, consistency and
integrity. What stood out to me about Agami Legends is the philosophy behind
it. The project draws inspiration from the spirit of cricket and from
institutions like the MIG Cricket Club, which have shaped generations of
players. I’m delighted to be associated with a development that celebrates
legacy in such a thoughtful way,” said Sunil Gavaskar, cricket legend and
brand ambassador of Agami Realty.

For
Agami Realty, development has always been closely tied to the cultural and
historical identity of a neighbourhood. Nowhere is this more evident than in
Kalanagar, one of Mumbai’s most established residential neighbourhoods known
for its artistic and cultural legacy. The developer has previously contributed
to the area with Agami Eternity, a development that drew inspiration from art
and creative expression while celebrating the character of its surroundings.

With
Agami Legends, the narrative evolves even further. If Eternity drew from the
language of art, Legends finds its inspiration in cricket. Located directly
facing the iconic MIG Cricket Club, the project reflects the discipline,
strategy and enduring legacy associated with the game. The association with
Sunil Gavaskar, therefore, emerges as a natural extension of the philosophy
behind the development, bringing together the legacy of a sporting icon with a
residential address conceived around similar ideals.

At
Agami Legends, the philosophy draws inspiration from the qualities that define
a legend. Strategy comes first. Every element of the home is thoughtfully
planned to maximise space, clarity, and long-term adaptability. Column-free
layouts and carefully designed residences ensure that every corner serves a purpose.
Expansive decks open up to views of the MIG Cricket Club and Mahim Bay.
Alongside strategy comes style. It is not loud or showy, but is defined by
quiet confidence, comfort, and thoughtful design that leaves a lasting
impression.

A
legend is also an all-rounder, adapting effortlessly to different roles and
evolving circumstances. In the same spirit, Agami Legends brings together
connectivity, lifestyle and everyday convenience within one address in
Kalanagar, Bandra (East), close to Bandra Kurla Complex and the city’s emerging
legal and commercial district. Finally, it is about becoming an icon, a
benchmark for excellence that stands the test of time. Overlooking the historic
MIG Cricket Club, the development brings together the legacy of the game and
the making of a new residential landmark.

Planned
as a standalone residential tower, Agami Legends follows a deliberately
low-density approach with only 67 residences, ensuring privacy and a quieter
living environment. The development will feature a bespoke collection of
expansive three and four-bedroom homes designed around column-free layouts that
allow open and uninterrupted living spaces.

The
project will also include a private wellness suite along with spaces designed
for quiet reflection and creative pursuits, including a room designed with high
acoustic insulation to create a quieter, more contemplative environment within
the development.

Located
in Kalanagar, Bandra (East), Agami Legends sits at the heart of what is rapidly
emerging as Mumbai’s new legal district, anchored by the upcoming Bombay High
Court complex at Bandra East. The address also enjoys strong connectivity to
Bandra Kurla Complex (BKC), the Western Express Highway and Mumbai Metro Line 3
(Aqua Line), while remaining within close reach of Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj
International Airport.

“We
believe that every development should respond to the character of the place it
belongs to. With Agami Legends, the idea was to create homes that reflect both
the legacy of Kalanagar and the discipline and stature associated with the game
of cricket. Sunil Gavaskar represents these ideals in their truest form, and
his association with the project felt like a natural extension of the
philosophy behind it,” said Prashant Khandelwal, Director and CEO of Agami
Realty and Joint Secretary of CREDAI MCHI. ]]></description>

<title>Open F&amp;amp;O Trading Account on Bajaj Broking Platform</title>
<link>https://en.newsbolt.in/open-fo-trading-account-on-bajaj-broking-platform</link>
<guid>https://en.newsbolt.in/open-fo-trading-account-on-bajaj-broking-platform</guid>
<description><![CDATA[ Futures and Options
(F&amp;O) trading is a segment of the stock market that allows traders to take
positions based on price movements without directly owning the underlying
asset. To participate in this segment, you need to activate F&amp;O trading in
your account.

With Bajaj Broking, you
can open and activate an F&amp;O trading
account online through a structured and digital process. This
blog explains how F&amp;O activation works, the steps involved, required
documents, and applicable charges.

Understanding F&amp;O
Segment Activation

F&amp;O trading is not
enabled by default in a standard trading account. It requires separate
activation because it involves higher risk and regulatory requirements. Before
activation, the platform typically checks:

●       
Your KYC details

●       
Income proof to assess eligibility

●       
Acceptance of risk disclosure documents

F&amp;O includes the
following.

Futures contracts: Agreements
to buy or sell an asset at a future date at a fixed price. 

Options contracts: Rights
(not obligations) to buy or sell at a predetermined price

Since these are
leveraged products, proper verification is required before activation.

Step-by-Step Guide to
Open F&amp;O Account Online

To activate Futures and
Options trading on Bajaj Broking is a fully digital process.

Step 1: Open a Trading
and Demat Account

Start by registering on
the Bajaj Broking platform if you do not already have an account.

Step 2: Log In and
Select Segment Activation

After account creation,
log in and choose the option to activate the F&amp;O segment.

Step 3: Submit Required
Details

Provide additional
information such as:

●       
Income range

●       
Trading experience

●       
Financial details

Step 4: Upload
Documents

Upload income proof and
other required documents for verification.

Step 5: Accept Terms
and Risk Disclosures

Review and accept
F&amp;O risk disclosure agreements digitally.

Step 6: e-Sign the
Application

Complete the process
using Aadhaar-based e-signature.

Step 7: Verification
and Activation

Once verified, the
F&amp;O segment is activated in your account.

After activation, you
can begin trading in futures and options through the platform.

Documents Required for
F&amp;O Trading Account

F&amp;O trading
requires additional documentation compared to a basic demat account. Commonly
required documents include:

●       
PAN Card (mandatory)

●       
Aadhaar Card or valid address proof

●       
Bank account details

●       
Income proof, such as salary slips, bank
statements, Income Tax Returns (ITR), Net worth certificate

Income proof is
essential because F&amp;O trading involves leveraged positions and higher
exposure.

Why Choose Bajaj
Broking for Futures and Options?

Bajaj Broking provides
a structured environment for F&amp;O trading with plan-based pricing and
integrated tools. Some key advantages include:

●       
Online account opening and activation

●       
Access to multiple segments including equity
and derivatives

●       
Flat brokerage plans for predictable cost

●       
Research-backed insights

●       
Integrated trading platform for execution and
tracking

Additionally, users can
select from different subscription plans depending on trading frequency and
cost preference.

<description><![CDATA[ Hyderabad,
India: Tech Leads IT, a Hyderabad-based IT
Training, Staffing, and IT Consulting organization, has announced a major
milestone of over 30,000+ Trained Students and 12000+ Placements
across India and International markets, reinforcing its position as a
significant contributor to India’s and the Global enterprise technology
workforce development ecosystem.

The
achievement comes after 14 years of operations during which the
organization has delivered more than 1,000+ batches training out of
which 300+ batches by Lead Trainer Krishna and 100+ corporate
trainings and expanded from an ERP-focused training institute into a
multi-vertical enterprise encompassing Training, Staffing, IT consulting, and
Project Implementation services.

The
milestone is particularly significant at a time when organizations worldwide
continue to grapple with a shortage of skilled professionals in enterprise
technologies, especially Oracle Fusion. As businesses accelerate cloud
transformation initiatives and modernize legacy ERP environments, demand for
implementation-ready talent has increased substantially across sectors.

Founded
in 2012, Tech Leads IT
has built specialized expertise in Oracle Fusion, SAP, Cloud Technologies,
Enterprise Applications, and ERP Consulting. The institute serves fresh
graduates, working professionals, and career-transition candidates through
industry-focused programs designed to align with evolving employer
requirements.

One
of the company’s key focus areas has been addressing the persistent shortage of
Oracle Fusion professionals in the market. With Oracle Fusion adoption
continuing to grow across enterprise resource planning, Oracle Fusion human
capital management ( HCM ), Oracle Fusion supply
chain management (SCM ), Oracle Fusion Financials and Oracle
Fusion Technical and OIC organizations frequently face challenges in sourcing
qualified consultants capable of supporting implementation and transformation
projects.

“Organizations
today are not just looking for certified professionals; they need talent that
can contribute from day one in live enterprise environments,” said Krishna V
, Founder &amp; CEO of Tech Leads IT, is an Oracle Fusion SCM Lead Trainer and
Subject Matter Expert (SME), recognized for his expertise in Oracle Fusion
Supply Chain Management, Corporate Training, Consulting, and Workforce
Upskilling.

“Oracle
Fusion talent is genuinely scarce, and bridging that gap has been the driving
purpose behind everything we do. Over 300 batches, I have seen professionals
completely reinvent themselves - from Oracle EBS consultants to Fusion
specialists, from supply chain professionals to Oracle Fusion practitioners.
Every placement is a career transformed, and every transformation adds real
value to the businesses that hire them.” said by Krishna V

A
major contributor to the institute’s growth has been its emphasis on practical
learning delivered by industry practitioners. The training model incorporates
project-based exposure, implementation scenarios, business process
understanding, and enterprise workflows, enabling learners to develop job-ready
capabilities beyond theoretical knowledge.

The
organization has also played a significant role in facilitating career
transitions for experienced professionals. Over the years, numerous Oracle
E-Business Suite consultants including Oracle EBS Supply Chain Management (SCM)
Consultants, Oracle EBS Human Capital Management (HCM) Consultants, Oracle EBS
Financials Consultants, Oracle EBS Technical Consultants, and other ERP
professionals have successfully transitioned into Oracle Fusion Consultant
Roles through its training programs.

End
to End Placement Support is a dedicated placement infrastructure that includes
Resume Building, Mock Interviews, Technical Assessments, Career Counseling and
roadmap planning for both fresh graduates and experienced professionals, and
Direct hiring assistance through an established Recruiter and employer
engagement initiatives. The company maintains relationships with multinational
corporations, consulting firms, staffing partners, and mid-sized enterprises to
help connect Oracle Fusion and ERP Trained candidates both Freshers and
Experienced professionals with employment opportunities.

Unlike
traditional training institutions, Tech Leads IT operates through an integrated
three-pillar model comprising Training and Education, Staffing and Recruitment,
and IT Consulting and Project Implementation. While the training division
develops enterprise technology talent, the staffing arm facilitates hiring
opportunities across its employer network. The consulting division further
creates opportunities for high-performing candidates to gain hands-on
experience through live implementation projects.

This
integrated approach enables the organization to support candidates throughout
the professional lifecycle, from skill development and placement to real-world
project exposure.

In
addition to individual training programs, Tech Leads IT has conducted more than
100+ corporate training engagements, helping organizations strengthen internal
capabilities and accelerate enterprise technology adoption. These programs focus
on practical implementation strategies, workforce readiness, and digital
transformation requirements.

According
to the company, the next phase of growth will focus on emerging enterprise
technology areas, including AI-enabled business applications, cloud-native ERP
ecosystems, and next-generation digital transformation platforms.

“My
vision has always been bigger than running a training center. I want to build
something that truly transforms lives 
where a student who comes to us for Oracle Fusion training can
eventually find a job through our staffing network, get placed on a real
project through our consulting arm, and grow into a professional who transforms
other careers in turn. That cycle of transformation is what I am working to
create, with Krishna’s grace, one batch at a time.&#039;&#039;  said by Krishna V

 Tech Leads IT aims to further expand its
training portfolio with new-age technology programs aligned with evolving
enterprise hiring trends — including AI-integrated workflows, cloud-native ERP
implementations, and next-generation enterprise platforms. With a robust
14-year foundation, a growing network of placed professionals, and an
unwavering focus on outcomes-driven learning, Tech Leads IT is well positioned
to continue shaping the future of India’s technology workforce.

<description><![CDATA[ A
Community-Driven Sustainability Initiative Encouraging Greener Habits and
Celebrating Local Biodiversity

Bengaluru,
8th June 2026 : LuLu Mall Bengaluru
marked World Environment Day, 5th June 2026, with the celebration of Rooted
at LuLu a community focussed sustainability initiative designed to
inspire small, mindful actions that collectively drive meaningful environmental
impact. The event was held at the Upper Ground (UG) Floor of LuLu Mall
Bengaluru, commencing at 5:00 PM, inaugurated by Mr. Rahuldev Rajguru Nature
and Wildlife Photographer, along with Mr. Guruprasad K R Nature lover, bird
enthusiast and conservation advocate.

initiative was launched in collaboration with Green Mic, Weknewrenew, Ataavi
Foundation  and Brand partners who joined
hands with us for the  cause are
Rajdhani, Sreeraj Lassi Bar, Joker &amp; Witch,Smooth Gelato, underscoring LuLu
Mall’s commitment to building a greener, more responsible retail experience for
the residents of Bengaluru.

The
main highlights of the Event were Kasa = Kaasu, Plastic Bottle Recycling
Drive. Visitors were invited to bring empty plastic bottles to the event and
exchange them for reward points redeemable at participating food and beverage
outlets within the mall. The programme’s name, Kasa = Kaasu (meaning
‘Waste = Money’ in Kannada), resonated deeply with the local community by

Bengaluru was set up for visitors to explore. Guests could scan QR codes placed
across the installation to listen to authentic bird calls and access

foster a deeper connection between urban residents and the natural biodiversity
thriving alongside them. Also, this will be open to public for 3 months.

is a way of life we want to nurture together with our community. ‘Rooted at

<description><![CDATA[  

London-headquartered healthcare
company, which has served over 20 Lakh patients globally, launches Voy India to
make evidence-based obesity treatment accessible nationwide

New Delhi, India : Voy, the London-headquartered digital healthcare company and market
leader in GLP-1 obesity care in the UK, Germany, and Brazil, today announced
its entry into India through the 100% acquisition of EarlyFit, one of India’s
leading online weight loss platforms.

Voy is emerging as a global multi-country
leader in preventive healthcare, especially GLP-1-led weight loss. Voy entered
Germany through the acquisition of Formel Skin ($40M raised) and has also
acquired Morelife, Menopause Care, Optimale, and now EarlyFit.

This acquisition marks Voy’s entry into one
of the world’s largest and fastest-growing healthcare markets with the goal to
serve 150M obese Indians. This brings Voy’s global clinical expertise,
research, and technology to India, making this the first international D2C
Health player to enter India.

Voy India will continue to serve patients
across the country through a network of more than 20 endocrinologists and
nutritionists, led by Dr. Saptarshi Bhattacharya (DM Endocrinology,
AIIMS), along with EarlyFit co-founders Parth Chopra and Saloni Paliwal. Voy
India will initially focus on weight loss and obesity care, leading with
affordable generic semaglutide offerings that became more accessible after
Ozempic’s patent expired in India in March 2026. while gradually expanding into
broader therapeutic areas using Voy’s global clinical expertise. Eventually,
they’re expected to launch hair loss, dermatology, menopause, hormone, and
testosterone replacement therapy, bringing learnings from global markets to
India.

George Pallis, Founder and CEO of Voy,
added, “We are incredibly excited to
welcome the Early Fit team to Voy. This acquisition marks our entry into the
most populous country globally, a really meaningful step towards building Voy
into a truly global platform. It has been wonderful to see what Parth Chopra
and Saloni Paliwal have built in the short time since they founded the business
and to see the alignment in underlying values of patient centricity and quality
of care.”

Saloni Paliwal, co-founder of EarlyFit,
now Voy India, added, “Through this
partnership, we are bringing world-class obesity treatment to India at a
pivotal moment when awareness is rising and access is expanding rapidly. By
combining global expertise, advanced technology, and clinically proven systems,
we are proud to launch India’s most trusted and safety-first platform for
obesity care.”

In a peer-reviewed study involving more
than 125,000 patients, Voy users achieved an average of 24% weight loss over 12
months, compared with 19% with medication alone. Ninety percent of patients
reached their self-defined health goals while maintaining a market-leading
clinical incident rate of less than 0.2%, significantly lower than the
approximately 4% seen in standard care. University of Cambridge, Harvard
University, Imperial College London, and UCL have shown that Voy’s integrated
care model delivers superior outcomes.

About Voy:

Founded in 2018, Voy is redefining how
healthcare is delivered and accessed globally. With a strong presence in the
UK, Brazil, and Germany, Voy has already served over 2 million patients
globally. The company combines market leading clinical quality and safety,
behavioural support, and ongoing care into a single, seamless experience. Voy
helps people to address some of the most life-impacting conditions, from
obesity and hormonal health to hair loss and menopause, as well as preventative
care through its Do Health offering.

About Voy India (formerly EarlyFit)

Voy India (formerly EarlyFit) is a digital
obesity and weight management platform serving patients nationwide through a
network of specialist endocrinologists and clinicians. The platform provides
evidence-based treatment plans, including GLP-1 therapies where clinically
appropriate, combined with ongoing medical supervision and behavioural support.

<title>Why Leasing Is Driving Sustainable EV Solutions in India for Commercial Fleets</title>
<link>https://en.newsbolt.in/why-leasing-is-driving-sustainable-ev-solutions-in-india-for-commercial-fleets</link>
<guid>https://en.newsbolt.in/why-leasing-is-driving-sustainable-ev-solutions-in-india-for-commercial-fleets</guid>
<description><![CDATA[  

Leasing is driving sustainable EV solutions
for commercial fleets in India, with providers like Drivn, Sun Mobility, and
Vertelo enabling businesses to adopt electric buses and trucks without high
upfront costs. This model offers financial flexibility, reduces emissions, and
allows companies to scale their fleets efficiently while transitioning to
greener operations.

How Leasing Is Making Sustainable EV
Solutions in India Work

Leasing is making sustainable EV solutions
in India work by helping companies like Drivn, Sun Mobility, and Vertelo
address the high upfront costs of electric buses and trucks. This model spreads
payments over time and often includes operational support, making fleet
electrification financially feasible even for smaller operators.

By reducing capital strain, leased EVs
allow businesses to adopt cleaner transport technology faster, maintain cash
flow, and scale their fleets according to demand. With growing focus on
environmental impact, this approach helps companies align operational
efficiency with sustainability goals.

Leading Commercial EV Leasing Solutions In
India

Here’s an overview of some of the leading EV leasing solutions for
commercial fleets in India:


 
  
  Provider
  
  
  Key Features
  
  
  Fleet Types

  Heavy trucks
  
 


Environmental and Operational Benefits of
Leasing EV Fleets

With June 5 being World Environment Day,
emphasising sustainability, adopting leased electric fleets can have an
immediate and long-term impact. Reduced reliance on diesel vehicles lowers
emissions and helps businesses align with environmental targets.

The operational advantages are equally
compelling:


 Leased EVs allow faster integration of new technology into
     fleets 
 Maintenance responsibilities can be simplified, as many leases
     include servicing 
 Fleet size can be adjusted according to demand, reducing idle
     vehicles 


Companies such as Drivn, Sun Mobility,
Vertelo, and SwitchLabs are supporting the adoption of leased EV fleets,
showing how businesses can gradually transition to cleaner transport while
managing costs and operations.

Scaling Sustainable EV Solutions Across
India

Leasing electric fleets has the potential
to expand the top sustainable
EV solutions in India beyond large corporates. By making EVs
financially accessible, smaller logistics operators could gradually integrate
electric vehicles into their operations, helping reduce overall emissions over
time.

With flexible lease programs from companies
like Drivn, Sun Mobility, Vertelo, and SwitchLabs, there’s an opportunity for
fleets of different sizes to adopt cleaner transport at a manageable pace. As
more operators explore this model, it could play a significant role in
improving urban air quality and supporting India’s shift toward greener
commercial transport.

Summary

Leasing is emerging as a practical way for
businesses to adopt top sustainable EV solutions in India. By reducing upfront
costs and offering operational support, it allows fleet operators to gradually
transition to electric trucks and buses while managing expenses and scaling
fleets efficiently. Flexible lease programs from providers such as Drivn, Sun Mobility, Vertelo, and
SwitchLabs make cleaner, low-emission transport more achievable for companies
of all sizes, contributing to a greener commercial transport ecosystem.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why is leasing preferred for electric
commercial fleets?

Leasing from providers like Drivn, Sun
Mobility, Vertelo, and SwitchLabs reduces upfront costs and allows fleet
operators to scale their electric vehicles gradually, making the adoption of
top sustainable EV solutions in India financially manageable.

How do leased EVs help reduce environmental
impact?

Leased electric vehicles replace diesel
trucks and buses, reducing emissions and fuel consumption. Over time, this
contributes to cleaner air in cities and supports businesses in meeting
sustainability goals.

Is EV leasing suitable for small or
medium-sized fleet operators?

Yes. Leasing provides a low-risk way for
smaller operators to adopt electric fleets. It allows them to start with a few
vehicles, test operational efficiency, and expand gradually as business needs
and budgets allow. ]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[ ~Accomplishes
deepest underwater product photoshoot at a depth of 52.1metres~

National,
8th June 2026 : Far beneath the ocean’s surface in a realm
defined by immense pressure, absolute precision and uncompromising conditions,
Titan Watches, India&#039;s most iconic watchmaker, has achieved a remarkable
milestone. In a first-of-its-kind feat, the brand has set a Guinness Book of
World Records for the deepest underwater product photoshoot. Executed at a
depth of 52.1 metres, featuring one of the only 1000 limited numbered Titan
Zero Hour 500M Professional Diver&#039;s Automatic Watches, the landmark endeavour
further reinforced the watch’s credentials as a serious instrument built for
the extremes.

Against
the vast expanse of the open ocean at Racha Noi Island, Phuket, Thailand, where
every descent pushes the limits of endurance and engineering, a team of five
certified technical divers set out to demonstrate the limits of precision and
performance. Reaching 50 metres within seven minutes and eventually attaining a
maximum depth of 52.1 metres, the divers completed a highly specialised
underwater photoshoot with an arsenal of cameras in a 20-minute operational
window under authentic open-ocean conditions.

Speaking
on the achievement, Kuruvilla Markose, CEO, Watches Division, Titan Company
Limited, said, &quot;Zero Hour was built on the belief that
Indian watchmaking can compete on the world&#039;s most demanding stages. Every
benchmark we have achieved- from ISO 6425 compliance and PADI validation to the
Guinness Book of World Records, lies at the intersection of engineering
conviction, innovation and craftsmanship. In essence, proving capability
through action. As we continue to advance our capabilities and build on this
momentum, achievements like these furthers our ambition to build world-class
performance timepieces that earn credibility with an intent to elevate Indian
watchmaking on the global stage. This has been the vision for Zero Hour since
its very inception, and the Guiness World Record accomplishment is an important
step in that journey.&quot;

Introduced
earlier this year, Zero Hour is Titan&#039;s dedicated performance sports watch
sub-brand, with the Divers’ collection as its first chapter. Zero Hour
represents the defining moment before action begins, where precision and
reliability allow no margin for error. The successful execution of the deepest
underwater product photoshoot under real open-ocean conditions serves as a
powerful expression of the philosophy that gives Zero Hour its name.

The
Titan Zero Hour collection spans twelve timepieces, ranging in depth capability
from 100 metres to 500 metres, and is priced between INR 15,795 and INR 77,995.
It is available at Titan World stores, large format retail destinations,
premium watch retailers, e-commerce platforms and at www.titan.co.in.

<guid>https://en.newsbolt.in/priyadarshani-group-of-schools-hosts-teacher-wellness-and-professional-development-initiative</guid>
<description><![CDATA[ Pune,
June 8, 2026: Reinforcing its commitment to the growth and
well-being of educators, Priyadarshani Group of Schools
organised a full-day professional development programme for teachers at Acharya
Atre Rang Mandir, Sant Tukaram Nagar, Pimpri-Chinchwad. The programme brought
together experts across mindfulness, nutrition and education to equip teachers
with practical tools for personal well-being and classroom impact. The session
was attended by more than 500 teachers from all branches of Priyadarshani
Schools, bringing together educators from across the institution&#039;s network.

A
key highlight of the programme was the address by Dr. Rajendra Singh, who spoke
about the importance of critical thinking in today’s rapidly evolving world and
the role teachers play in nurturing thoughtful, responsible individuals.

“Education
must go beyond textbooks. Schools must encourage curiosity, questioning and
independent thinking while helping students develop ethical values, civic
responsibility and discipline through everyday habits,” said Dr. Rajendra
Singh.

Session
I: Unlock Your Potential – Mindfulness for Success

The
first session was conducted by Ms. Shaveta Gupta, Certified Yoga Teacher and
Reiki Master, and focused on mindfulness, emotional balance and self-awareness
for educators. Through practical yoga and mindfulness techniques, she
introduced participants to practices such as gratitude journaling, forgiveness,
meditation, and positive visualisation to help teachers manage stress and
maintain balance in their professional and personal lives.

“Mindfulness
is not a luxury for teachers, it is an essential tool. A calm and self-aware
teacher naturally creates a more positive classroom environment,” said Ms.
Gupta.

Session
II: Nutrition and Health Education

The
second session was led by Dr. Prachee Bohra, PhD, Head of Technical Quality at
Juvenate Wellbeing, who spoke about the connection between nutrition, lifestyle
choices and overall well-being. The session focused on how healthy eating
habits, physical activity and sustainable routines can improve energy, focus
and long-term health for educators.

“Good
nutrition directly impacts energy, focus and emotional well-being. Small
lifestyle changes can make a significant difference in how educators feel and
perform every day,” said Dr. Bohra.

Teachers
attending the programme described the sessions as insightful and practical,
highlighting how the learnings could positively influence both their personal
well-being and their interactions with students.

Ms
Pawani Muradi, Teacher at Priyadarshani Indrayani School said, “This session
offered valuable insights into balancing physical and mental well-being. The
learnings will help us both personally and professionally and we can
effectively pass these lessons on to our students. I appreciate Priyadarshani
Schools for organizing such a meaningful and enriching session for teachers.”

Sonali
Jamgade, Teacher at Priyadarshani Indrayani Nagar,&quot;Today&#039;s session
provided a simple yet impactful introduction to mindfulness and was highly
motivating for all teachers. It highlighted the importance of mindful living,
healthy eating habits and proper hydration. These learnings will benefit us
personally and help us guide our students by planning mindful food and water
breaks while fostering greater awareness of overall well-being.&quot;

The
programme concluded with an engaging interaction among participants and
speakers, reinforcing the important role teachers play in shaping not only
academic outcomes but also the emotional and social development of students. By
investing in educator well-being and professional growth, Priyadarshani Group
of Schools aims to foster healthier, more supportive and more engaging learning
environments that ultimately benefit students and the larger school community.

<description><![CDATA[ Bengaluru,
8th June, 2026: International School of Management Excellence (ISME) Bangalore
has achieved accreditation from EFMD Global for its Post Graduate Diploma in
Management (PGDM), marking a significant milestone in the institution’s journey

places ISME’s PGDM programme among a globally select group of globally
benchmarked management programmes that meet rigorous international standards of

The
European Foundation for Management Development (EFMD) Quality Improvement
System (EQUIS), administered by EFMD Global, is widely regarded as one of the
world’s most prestigious and rigorous accreditation frameworks for business and
management schools. EQUIS evaluates institutions across multiple dimensions

select group of business schools have earned recognition through the EQUIS
framework, making it a benchmark of international credibility and academic
excellence.

said, “Receiving recognition from EFMD Global is an important milestone for
ISME and a validation of our commitment to delivering globally benchmarked
management education. This achievement reflects the collective efforts of our
faculty, students, alumni, corporate partners, and academic collaborators who
have contributed towards building a culture of excellence, innovation, and
responsible leadership. At ISME, we remain committed to creating future-ready
professionals equipped with global perspectives, ethical values, and
industry-relevant capabilities.”

The
accreditation reflects ISME’s continued commitment to building a future-focused
learning ecosystem that combines academic rigor with industry relevance and
global exposure. Over the years, ISME has strengthened its emphasis on
experiential learning, innovation-led pedagogy, entrepreneurship, international
collaborations, and industry integration to prepare its PGDM students for the
rapidly evolving global business environments.

Speaking
on the accreditation, Dr. Rony G. Kurien, Dean, International School of
Management Excellence, said, “EFMD’s perspective has also helped us realign our
mission and recognize ISME’s distinctive strength in Internationalisation at
Home. For students, this recognition opens the door to enhanced global exposure
and wider academic and industry opportunities. In today’s interconnected world,
students increasingly look for institutions that are aligned with international
benchmarks, and this accreditation strengthens the value and global acceptance

<title>Capability, Not Just Capital, Emerges as the Key Differentiator for BFSI Leaders at People Matters BFSI Talent &amp;amp; Tech Summit 2026</title>
<link>https://en.newsbolt.in/capability-not-just-capital-emerges-as-the-key-differentiator-for-bfsi-leaders-at-people-matters-bfsi-talent-tech-summit-2026</link>
<guid>https://en.newsbolt.in/capability-not-just-capital-emerges-as-the-key-differentiator-for-bfsi-leaders-at-people-matters-bfsi-talent-tech-summit-2026</guid>
<description><![CDATA[ Key
Highlights:

●       
Skills intelligence, AI governance, and
leadership reinvention emerged as the sector&#039;s top workforce imperatives.

●       
In 10 hours of leadership sessions, 210+
leaders agreed that capability, not capital alone, will define competitive
advantage in the next decade of BFSI growth.

●       
Success requires dynamic skill architectures,
agile operating models, and robust human oversight of AI.

●       
Trust, institutional resilience, and
psychological safety emerged as the competitive advantage in a digital-first
financial ecosystem.

Mumbai,
June 8, 2026 : India’s US$1+ trillion BFSI sector is
expanding rapidly, fueled by digital transformation and an 8.7% hiring growth
rate. Yet, organisations face a 42% skills gap in high-growth roles,
while one in three employees considers leaving amid ongoing uncertainty. A
global drop in entry-level hiring further strains the sector’s future
leadership pipeline.

At
this intersection of extraordinary opportunity and structural urgency, People
Matters convened the inaugural BFSI Talent &amp; Tech Summit 2026 at
Taj Santacruz, Mumbai on June 4. The event brought together more than 210
CHROs, business leaders, and digital strategists from leading banks, insurance
companies, NBFCs, fintechs, and wealth management firms, under one defining
conviction: Capability is the New Currency.

In
his keynote address, Pushkar Bidwai, CEO, People Matters, highlighted
the growing gap between technology adoption and workforce readiness.

&quot;Technology
transformation is moving faster than workforce transformation. The organisations
that will lead the next decade will not be those that simply deploy more AI,
but those that design work around humans so AI can work at scale. In a world
where skills change faster than ever, capability has become the new currency of
growth. The real challenge is no longer technology adoption; it is building the
leadership systems, cultures, and frameworks where people and technology truly
augment each other. That is where the next chapter of workforce transformation
will be won or lost,&quot; said Bidwai.

Throughout
the day, discussions centred on how BFSI organisations can build future-ready
talent architectures in an environment shaped by AI, changing customer
expectations, regulatory complexity, and new workforce dynamics.

In
an insightful leadership dialogue, Dinesh Khara, Board Chairman,
PeopleStrong and Former Chairman, State Bank of India, directly links the
survival and expansion of the BFSI industry to a combination of human
resource skills, technology, and AI, emphasising that the workforce must change
and adapt.

“To
truly achieve the scale of growth our sector aspires to by 2047, we will need
more than just skilled human resources, we must also harness technology and
artificial intelligence. Success will depend on our ability to leverage every
available tool, integrating people, technology, and AI to meet the ambitions of
the Indian economy as it transforms for the future,” said Khara. 

Addressing
the critical need for executive accountability in people strategy, Anil
Khandelwal, Former Chairman and Managing Director, Bank of Baroda,
remarked:

&quot;The
real challenge before HR is not the employees. The challenge is dealing with
higher management, especially the CEO and the board. Unless leaders recognise
that owning human resources is a core business responsibility, organisations
risk managing tomorrow with yesterday&#039;s mindset. In a decade defined by
disruption, that is a risk no institution can afford.&quot;

Sharing
Kotak Life&#039;s approach to cultivating these future-ready capabilities, Ruchira
Bhardwaja, CHRO, Kotak Life, said:

&quot;The
question is no longer whether organisations are investing enough in learning.
The real question is whether that learning is helping people solve tomorrow&#039;s
business problems. Capability building must move beyond training hours and
certifications towards creating experiences, leadership readiness, and
organisational agility at scale.&quot;

A
Gathering of the Industry&#039;s Foremost Minds

The
summit’s high-impact dialogue was shaped by an extensive lineup of top
transformation leaders, including Madhavi Lall (Managing Director, Head - HR
India, Deutsche Bank), Vishal Kukreja (CHRO, RBL Bank), Suresh Kumar Sivaraj
(CHRO, Muthoot Fincorp Ltd.), Nisha Rodi (Head - HR, NPCI BHIM), Manmeet Sandhu
(Chief People Officer, PhonePe), Dr Harpreet Singh Anand (CHRO, Protean eGov
Technologies), Ganapathi Subramanian (CHRO, Sundaram Home Finance), T Mark
Fernandes (Head HR - Corporate, Kotak Life), Manjul Tilak, (CHRO, Piramal
Finance Ltd.) and many more.

The
summit concluded that enduring BFSI institutions are built on social and
cultural capital, not just financial performance. Leaders warned that playing
it safe with AI or resisting cultural evolution is the greatest risk, and that
the future belongs to agile, customer-centric organizations that
institutionalise psychological safety, renew capability, and make trust their
competitive edge.

<title>HUFT Express: Now Live In Bengaluru 3000+ pet care essentials, delivered to your doorstep</title>
<link>https://en.newsbolt.in/huft-express-now-live-in-bengaluru-3000-pet-care-essentials-delivered-to-your-doorstep</link>
<guid>https://en.newsbolt.in/huft-express-now-live-in-bengaluru-3000-pet-care-essentials-delivered-to-your-doorstep</guid>
<description><![CDATA[ There’s a very
particular kind of panic every pet parent knows.

The
kind that hits when you realise the cat litter is almost over at 10 PM. Or when
your dog’s food packet suddenly feels far lighter than expected. Or when your
pet’s favourite treats, supplements, or calming essentials run out, right
before a long day begins.

When
it comes to pets, these aren’t just purchases. They are daily essentials tied
to routines, comfort, health, and trust. Our pets don’t understand delayed
deliveries, they only know breakfast time, walk time, mealtime, comfort time.

And
for years, pet parents across India have turned to Heads Up For Tails
for exactly that trust: thoughtfully curated products, high-quality essentials,
and expert-backed care designed around the real needs of pets and the people
who love them.

Now,
we&#039;re bringing that trust even closer.

HUFT
Express, Heads Up For Tails’ fast-delivery service for pet essentials, is now
live across all pincodes in Bengaluru, helping pet parents access over 3,000
products from their nearest Heads Up For Tails  store with same-day delivery.

Built
around a simple insight that pet parenting rarely happens according to plan,
HUFT Express is designed for the everyday moments when essentials simply can&#039;t
wait. Whether it&#039;s a last-minute food refill, an urgent litter restock,
grooming essentials before a trip, or replacing a toy that was enthusiastically
played with (read: destroyed) within hours of unboxing it. 

The
service offers access to a wide assortment of products across food, treats,
toys, litter, grooming, healthcare, walk gear, accessories and everyday pet
essentials for dogs and cats, making it easier for pet parents to get what they
need, when they need it.

But
beyond faster delivery, HUFT Express is really about something deeper:
reliability.

Every
order is fulfilled directly from the nearest HUFT store. The same stores pet
parents already visit, rely on, and trust for their pets&#039; needs. This not only
enables same-day delivery across Bengaluru, but also gives pet parents greater
confidence in the quality, availability and reliability of the products
arriving at their doorstep.

Speaking
about the initiative, Nishad Vishwas Kenkre,
Chief Business Officer, Heads Up For Tails, said:

&quot;HUFT
Express is a natural extension of what Heads Up For Tails
has always stood for - trust, quality, and thoughtful pet care. For nearly two
decades, Indian pet parents have relied on us for products and experiences
designed around the real needs of pets, and now we&#039;re bringing that same
confidence and curation to online shopping with the speed and convenience that
modern pet parenting demands. We&#039;re incredibly excited about building this
omni-channel experience where the warmth and reliability of our stores can
reach pet parents at their doorstep.&quot;

The
response from Bengaluru&#039;s pet parent community has been overwhelmingly
positive. Pet parents have embraced the convenience of getting trusted pet
essentials delivered faster, while continuing to enjoy the confidence that
comes with shopping from Heads Up For Tails.

The
experience has also resonated strongly across the wider pet community, with
several leading pet influencers sharing their appreciation for HUFT Express
across social media platforms.

HUFT
Express is now available across Bengaluru. Pet parents can place orders on headsupfortails.com
or by downloading the HUFT App.

Because
sometimes it&#039;s not just a bag of food or a box of litter.
It&#039;s tomorrow morning&#039;s breakfast. Or tonight&#039;s routine.
And when it comes to pets, every little moment matters. ]]></description>

organise the ITS India Congress alongside Transport + Traffic Infratech Expo
commencing with the 2026 edition scheduled to take place on 7–8 October 2026
and continuing in subsequent editions.

At
a time when India is making unprecedented investments in highways, urban
transit, logistics, and digital infrastructure, the need for intelligent,
safe, efficient, and sustainable mobility solutions has never been greater. As
home to the world&#039;s second-largest road network and one of the fastest-growing
automotive markets globally, India faces increasing challenges related to
congestion, road safety, urban mobility, and logistics efficiency making the
adoption of Intelligent Transportation Systems a national imperative.

Against
this backdrop, India&#039;s growing investments in smart mobility, AI-driven
transportation systems, intelligent traffic management, digital tolling,
multimodal connectivity, and sustainable infrastructure present a unique
opportunity to accelerate the transformation of the country&#039;s mobility
ecosystem. It is this shared vision that underpins the integration of the ITS
India Congress, an initiative of the ITS India Forum and India&#039;s premier annual
forum for Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS), combined with Transport +
Traffic Infratech Expo, the country&#039;s leading trade exhibition for traffic,
transport, road infrastructure, parking, and smart mobility solutions, will
establish one of India&#039;s most comprehensive platforms for innovation, policy
dialogue, knowledge exchange, and business engagement across the transportation
and mobility ecosystem.

Commenting
on the strategic alliance, the leadership teams of Messe Frankfurt Trade Fairs
India, Virtual Info Systems (VIS Group) and ITS India Forum highlighted the
importance of creating a unified platform that will drive innovation, policy
dialogue, and industry collaboration across India&#039;s rapidly evolving mobility
and transportation ecosystem.

Mr
Raj Manek, Executive Director &amp; Board Member, Messe Frankfurt Aisa Holdings
Ltd, said:  &quot;India
is at a pivotal stage in the evolution of its transportation and mobility
ecosystem, driven by significant investments in infrastructure, digital transformation,
and smart mobility initiatives. As these sectors continue to converge, the need
for a comprehensive platform that facilitates dialogue, innovation, business
engagement, and cross-sector collaboration has become increasingly important.
The strategic integration of the ITS India Congress with Transport + Traffic
Infratech Expo reflects our commitment to creating high-value industry
platforms that address emerging market needs and support sectoral growth. By
bringing together policymakers, government authorities, technology providers,
infrastructure developers, academia, and industry leaders, we are creating a
unique platform that not only showcases innovation but also fosters meaningful
conversations around the future of mobility and transportation.”

Mr.
Akhilesh Srivastava, President, ITS India Forum, added: &quot;A
flagship event of this scale demands the right blend of domain leadership and
world-class event production, and that is precisely the value this joint
venture unlocks,&quot; said Mr. Akhilesh Srivastava, President, ITS India
Forum. &quot;The ITS India Forum brings the technical depth, credibility, and
stakeholder network; Traffic Infra brings the production expertise to deliver a
seamless, high-impact experience for thousands of delegates, exhibitors, and
global partners. Together, we are building a sustainable, repeatable model for
the Congress that strengthens India&#039;s ITS ecosystem”

Likewise,
Mr Jayaraman Nair, Chairman, Virtual Info Systems Pvt Ltd (VIS Group) said : &quot;Transport
+ Traffic Infratech Expo has consistently evolved in line with the needs of
India&#039;s transportation and infrastructure sectors. The addition of the ITS
India Congress marks a natural and strategic progression in that journey.
Together, we are creating one of India&#039;s most influential platforms for
intelligent transportation systems, smart mobility, traffic management, road
safety, and digital infrastructure. At a time when India is investing heavily
in connected and sustainable mobility solutions, this partnership will provide a
powerful platform for industry collaboration, policy dialogue, technology
showcase, and business growth, helping shape the future of transportation in
the country.&quot;

The
inaugural ITS India Congress alongside Transport + Traffic Infratech Expo 2026
will bring together policymakers, government authorities, urban planners,
infrastructure developers, technology providers, academia, startups, and
industry leaders to address the opportunities and challenges shaping the future
of mobility in India. Through a combination of high-level conferences, policy
dialogues, technology showcases, business networking, and knowledge-sharing
initiatives, the platform will serve as a catalyst for innovation,
collaboration, and investment across the transportation ecosystem.

As
India advances towards a future defined by connected, intelligent, and
sustainable mobility, the strategic alliance between Messe Frankfurt Trade
Fairs India, Virtual Info Systems, and ITS India Forum represents a significant
step towards creating a unified industry platform that bridges policy,
technology, infrastructure, and business. Together, the partners are committed
to fostering meaningful dialogue, accelerating the adoption of Intelligent
Transportation Systems, and supporting India&#039;s vision of building a safer,
smarter, and more efficient transportation network for generations to come.

<title>Indian Students Returning Home See 8.4x Income Growth as India Hits Record $135 Billion in Remittances: MPOWER Financing 2026 Social Impact Report</title>
<link>https://en.newsbolt.in/indian-students-returning-home-see-84x-income-growth-as-india-hits-record-135-billion-in-remittances-mpower-financing-2026-social-impact-report</link>

<description><![CDATA[  

Global
education lender marks 12 years, $1 billion in tuition funded, India remains
among the largest sources of high-intent international students

Delhi/Bengaluru,
8th June 2026: MPOWER Financing, the leading provider of
no-cosigner education loans for international students, released its 2026
Social Impact Report, a twelve-year data study covering 25,000+ students from
183 countries. For Indian students and families, the data tells a compelling
story: Indian graduates who return home see their income grow 8.4 times, while
India as a nation recorded a record $135 billion in remittances in FY2025, up
14% year on year, partly fuelled by students who studied abroad.

India
remains the largest source of international graduate students in the United
States, with enrollment rising 19% to nearly 200,000 students. Within this,
MPOWER-supported students from India represent a high-ambition, career-driven
segment largely pursuing postgraduate degrees in engineering, data science,
business, and healthcare, fields that align directly with North America&#039;s
critical skills shortages.

MPOWER&#039;s
data puts a human face to these numbers: 77% of its graduates who are employed
full-time send money home, averaging $6,000 annually. For families earning
$15,000 or less per year, that single contribution represents a 40–50% increase
in total household income.

A
central finding of the 2026 report is that access to financing is not a
secondary concern for Indian students, it is the primary one. Across MPOWER&#039;s
global borrower base, 93% said they would not have been able to study abroad
without MPOWER&#039;s support, a figure that is highly relevant for Indian students,
who face significant collateral and cosigner barriers in accessing
international credit.

MPOWER&#039;s
model evaluates students on future earning potential rather than family wealth,
removing requirements for collateral or a cosigner. The results speak for
themselves: 92% of students supported are enrolled in postgraduate programs,
57% are first-generation college students, and 76% come from households earning
under $15,000 per year.

&quot;When
I co-founded MPOWER in 2014, my thesis was simple: the single biggest barrier
between brilliant young people and a global education was not talent nor
ambition, but capital,&quot; said Manu Smadja, Co-Founder and CEO of MPOWER
Financing. &quot;Twelve years of data later, that thesis has only solidified.
When you remove financial barriers, the rest of the system bends. Universities
fill seats, employers gain talent, and communities in origin countries receive
vital remittances. The students themselves achieve socioeconomic mobility and
they pay it forward.” 

MPOWER
graduates who return to India still see an average income increase of 8.4x
compared to pre-study earnings. Those who remain abroad send capital, share learnings,
and professional networks back home. The report highlights that India&#039;s IT
revolution was itself partly catalysed by this cycle of Indian professionals
gaining experience in U.S. technology companies and channelling investment,
expertise, and global business relationships back into the domestic economy.

&quot;International
education and mobility are not losses, but multipliers,&quot; the report
states. &quot;When empowered with opportunity, today&#039;s students become
tomorrow&#039;s innovators, investors, and changemakers, uplifting not just
themselves, but their families, communities, and nations.&quot;

About
MPOWER Financing

MPOWER
Financing, headquartered in Washington, D.C., and
Bengaluru is a mission-driven fintech company and the leading provider of
global education loans. Its proprietary algorithm leverages both historical and
forward-looking data to finance high-potential international students without
requiring collateral or a cosigner. MPOWER is dedicated to &quot;borderless
loans for borderless minds.&quot;

<description><![CDATA[ NEW DELHI,
India  : Regulatory compliance
has become an important aspect when it comes to industrial operations. Getting
a factory licence approval and dealing with documentation management is the
first thing that businesses look into now. With the evolving compliance
requirements and complications associated with each step, FactoryLicence.in
provides compliance assistance and licensing support that assists businesses in
simplifying all the regulatory requirements for industrial units and growing
businesses. The platform offers services such as Factory Licence Registration,
Factory Licence Renewal, Fire NOC, Pollution NOC, Labour Law Compliance, Fire
Safety Approvals, and Industrial Licensing Support across major industrial
regions such as for Pollution NOC services in Haryana, Delhi, and Uttar
Pradesh.

With the
rapid growth of manufacturing and industrial activities in India, regulatory
compliance has become an important criterion for businesses operating
production and industrial units. The Factories Act, 1948 stipulates the
conditions for obtaining a Factory Licence for businesses that undertake all
manufacturing operations involving a specified number of employees and plants.
The licence is basically a document that establishes eligibility for
manufacturing units to operate in the sectors of health, safety, welfare, and
environmental standards. This is required by the government and establishments
are obliged to comply with it.

The factory
licence registration and renewal process, however, can be quite document-heavy,
with numerous inspections, approvals from various departments, and compliance
standards to be adhered to. Understanding the different state-wise regulations
and keeping up with timely compliance can be a complicated and time-consuming
task for many businesses, especially emerging manufacturers, MSMEs, and
industrial startups. A slowdown in the approval process or a lack of
documentation could also affect the business expansion strategies and the
continuity of operations.

To ease
these processes, FactoryLicence.in offers assistance in Factory Licence
Registration, Renewals, Compliance with labour laws, Fire and Safety Approvals,
Pollution NOCs, and document support for all industrial establishments. It also
helps businesses to connect with other departments to facilitate inspection and
approval processes and to support manufacturers in maintaining continual
compliance requirements.

Thus,
factorylicence.in also provides location-specific compliance support for
businesses that operate in the industrial hubs across the Northern part of the
country. This platform assists manufacturers and industrial establishments in
obtaining their factory licence, Fire NOC, Pollution NOC Uttar Pradesh. In a
gist, the company supports factories, warehouses, food manufacturing units,
chemical plants, and MSMEs with better compliance guidance, and provides
approval coordination.

As
awareness about industrial safety, operational legalities, and regulatory
preparedness grows, companies are keen to have structured compliance support in
order to carry out their licensing process more efficiently. As a firm
committed to assisting manufacturing industries in complying with factory
license regulations, FactoryLicence.in offers manufacturers the necessary
documentation guidance, procedural support, and regular regulatory support.

“FactoryLicence.in
made the entire process of obtaining our factory licence smooth and
stress-free. Their team was responsive, knowledgeable, and highly professional
throughout the process.”

<description><![CDATA[ New
Delhi, June 2026 : Amid recent discussions surrounding a
preliminary inquiry initiated by the Competition Commission of India (CCI),
Mrs. India Inc has reiterated its confidence in the legal process while
highlighting the platform&#039;s long-standing contribution to women&#039;s empowerment
and international representation.

Over
the years, Mrs. India Inc has emerged as one of India&#039;s leading pageant
platforms for married women, providing opportunities for personal development,
leadership, mentorship, and international representation. As the matter remains
under investigation, former winners and participants have come forward to share
their experiences and support for the platform.

Exclusive
Interview with Mohini Sharma

Q:
With recent allegations and the ongoing CCI inquiry attracting public
attention, what would you like to say to participants, titleholders, and
stakeholders who have placed their trust in Mrs. India Inc.?

Mohini
Sharma, Founder &amp; National Director, Mrs. India Inc:

&quot;For
over a decade, Mrs. India Inc. has been committed to empowering married women
and providing them with opportunities to grow, lead, and represent India on
global platforms. Every year, we witness remarkable women step out of their
comfort zones, discover their potential, and achieve milestones they once thought
impossible.&quot;

&quot;We
respect the regulatory process and have complete faith in the institutions that
govern it. The current order is only a preliminary procedural step, and we are
confident that once all facts are examined objectively, the truth will prevail.
We believe it is important for everyone to understand that allegations are not
findings, and investigations are meant to establish facts.&quot;

&quot;Our
focus remains unchanged to continue supporting women, maintaining the highest
standards of professionalism, and creating a platform that celebrates
confidence, leadership, and personal growth. The trust of our participants,
titleholders, partners, and supporters is our greatest strength, and we remain
committed to upholding that trust every step of the way.&quot;

&quot;The
Platform Changed My Life&quot; — Navdeep Kaur

Former
Mrs. India World 2021 winner Navdeep Kaur credits the platform with
opening doors that transformed her personal and professional journey.

&quot;Mrs.
India World 2021 was a life-changing experience that gave me opportunities far
beyond the crown. From representing India internationally to learning from some
of the finest mentors in the industry, every aspect of the journey reflected
professionalism, discipline, and empowerment.&quot;

She
highlighted the extensive mentorship and equal opportunities provided to
participants.

&quot;What
stood out most was that every participant was given equal respect and equal
opportunity to grow. The platform encouraged authenticity and rewarded
dedication, hard work, and commitment.&quot;

According
to Navdeep, the experience reinforced her belief in the values of integrity and
transparency that she witnessed throughout her journey.

 &quot;A Reputation Built Through Years of
Dedication&quot; — Monalisa Hazarika

Monalisa
Hazarika, Mrs International World Runner up, also
spoke about her experience.

&quot;My
journey with Mrs. India Inc was marked by transparency, discipline, and a
genuine commitment to empowering women. The organization invests considerable
effort and resources into helping participants build confidence and prepare
themselves for larger opportunities.&quot;

She
believes the platform&#039;s reputation has been earned through years of dedication
and successful participant outcomes.

&quot;The
achievements of countless women who have gone on to represent India globally
are a testament to the work done by the organization. I believe any institution
should be judged on facts and its long-term contributions rather than
unverified allegations.&quot;

Mrs.
India Inc has maintained that all agreements entered into with participants are
lawful, voluntary, and aligned with accepted industry practices. The
organization also emphasized that its primary objective has always been to
safeguard the credibility of the competition, the dignity of titleholders, and
the integrity of international affiliations.

The
platform&#039;s leadership remains confident that the ongoing inquiry will provide
clarity and allow the facts to be examined in their entirety.

For
thousands of women who have participated in the platform over the years, Mrs.
India Inc represents more than a beauty pageant it represents an opportunity
for growth, confidence, leadership, and global recognition.

As
the process continues, the organization says it remains focused on its mission
of empowering married women across India and helping them represent themselves
and the country with confidence, talent, and pride on the world stage. ]]></description>

<title>Jaya Pavan Gummadi: Building With Conscience in a City That Is Growing Fast</title>
<link>https://en.newsbolt.in/jaya-pavan-gummadi-building-with-conscience-in-a-city-that-is-growing-fast</link>

<description><![CDATA[ Hyderabad, June 5, 2026 : Hyderabad is growing
with extraordinary energy. New residential communities, commercial corridors
and lifestyle hubs are shaping the city’s next chapter. This pace has brought
aspiration and opportunity, along with a greater need for thoughtful choices. Heat,
water, waste, open spaces and liveability are now central to how urban growth
must be understood.

On World Environment Day, as conversations
around climate action return to homes, communities and everyday choices,
Hyderabad’s growth story carries a deeply personal question: what kind of city
are we building for the generations that will live here?

Jaya Pavan Gummadi, a Hyderabad-based real estate entrepreneur and
sustainability advocate, has built his public work around conscious
development, climate-aware living and community-led conversations on the city’s
future. 

“Every building carries a responsibility,” says Jaya Pavan Gummadi.
“It affects the people who live inside it, the street around it, the resources
it uses and the city it becomes part of. When we build with conscience, we are
thinking about comfort, health, accountability and the future at the same
time.”

JP believes that responsible development must be felt in the quiet
details of daily life. A home should stay cooler through harsh summers. It
should allow families to breathe cleaner air. It should use water with care,
bring greenery closer to residents, reduce strain on the environment and create
neighbourhoods that feel healthier with time.

JP has also taken this belief into public conversations through Positive
Planet, a sustainability-led podcast and content platform that brings
Hyderabad’s own experts, practitioners and changemakers into the centre of the
climate conversation. The platform explores subjects such as waste, composting,
recycling, circular economy, green living and responsible consumption, but its
real strength lies in the people it brings forward. These are voices rooted in
the city’s everyday realities, people who understand its homes, habits,
weather, waste systems, neighbourhoods and civic rhythms from lived experience.

“The people who understand Hyderabad best are the ones who live its
rhythms every day,” says Jaya Pavan Gummadi. “Positive Planet is a way
to bring those voices forward and make sustainability feel closer to home.”

Through these conversations, JP is helping sustainability move from
distant theory to local understanding. After all, who can speak about a city’s
future with greater intimacy than the people who live here, build here, work
here and care for its everyday life? Positive Planet gives that knowledge a
platform, turning expert insight into practical awareness for families,
citizens, businesses and communities.

For JP, real estate and public awareness belong in the same
conversation, especially in a year when World Environment Day calls attention
to climate action. Thoughtful communities can create systems for better living,
while people give those systems meaning through habits, care and participation.
As families pay closer attention to air quality, open spaces, heat comfort,
water security, maintenance discipline and long-term value, sustainability
begins to feel like culture. JP sees this as a healthy shift for Indian real
estate, where climate-aware homebuyers can inspire more responsible development.


World Environment Day is a reminder that climate-conscious development
can begin at home. It can begin with a balcony that receives fresh air, a
courtyard that offers shade, a community that manages waste responsibly, a home
that uses resources wisely and a developer who treats the city as a shared
inheritance.

As Hyderabad continues to rise, Jaya Pavan Gummadi’s idea of
building with conscience brings heart to the conversation on growth. It
places people, planet and long-term responsibility within the same frame. It
reminds us that the strongest buildings are the ones that care for life inside
them and respect the world outside them.

estate entrepreneur and sustainability advocate. His work and public voice

contributes to conversations around sustainability, circular economy, waste,
composting, recycling and everyday green choices. ]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[ Indore,
June 2026 : Nicobar, the modern Indian lifestyle studio,
has opened its first store in Indore, marking an exciting new chapter in the
brand’s retail journey across India. Known for its thoughtful approach to
contemporary Indian living, the brand arrives in a city that has long
celebrated craftsmanship, creativity and a strong sense of community. With a
growing appreciation for design-led experiences and mindful consumption, Indore
feels like a natural home for Nicobar’s distinctive point of view.

Located
at The Edit, a curated destination that brings together art, design and
lifestyle experiences, the new store reflects a shared appreciation for
thoughtful curation and meaningful experiences. The setting offers a natural
backdrop for a brand that has always viewed design as something that extends
beyond products and into the way people live, gather and express themselves.

The
store brings together Nicobar’s signature assortment across fashion, home,
accessories and lifestyle. From everyday wardrobe essentials and handcrafted
home accents to thoughtful gifting finds, the collection reflects the brand’s
philosophy of creating products that are timeless, functional and rooted in
contemporary India. Every piece is designed to become part of daily life,
balancing beauty with utility and encouraging a more considered way of living.

Designed
to feel warm, relaxed and welcoming, the store invites visitors to browse at
their own pace and discover products that become part of everyday rituals.
Natural materials, thoughtful details and an easy flow through the space create
an atmosphere that reflects Nicobar’s understated aesthetic and belief that
good design should be lived with, not simply admired.

The
opening at The Edit feels particularly fitting for Nicobar. Much like the brand,
the destination brings together design, culture and discovery in a way that
encourages people to engage more thoughtfully with the things they choose to
live with. Beyond showcasing collections, the store offers visitors an
opportunity to experience the wider world of Nicobar, one shaped by
craftsmanship, creativity and an appreciation for everyday rituals. As Indore
continues to embrace design and cultural expression in new ways, the store
marks the beginning of an exciting new chapter for the brand in a city whose
values resonate closely with its own.

About
Nicobar

Rooted
in India, and inspired by journeys across the Indian Ocean. We’re a company
that believes in culture as much as commerce, and that journeys are usually as
worthy as destinations. These are the stories we’re telling through our product
and through a community. We blend India’s rich heritage with contemporary
design, bridging the gap between East and West. We celebrate the complexity of
modern identities, reflecting a global perspective in every creation, but our
Indianness as an undercurrent and guiding principle. Every season, we set sail
on a voyage to create a modern design stamp for India. Our design teams embark
on a journey of inspiration across the Indian Ocean and ancient trading routes,
moving from coast to coast, season after season. We’ve taken design journeys to
Sri Lanka, Japan, Bali, Myanmar, China, Thailand, Bali, Zanzibar, Madagascar
and along our own coastal routes… because at the heart of Nicobar’s design
story is a sense of wanderlust.

<title>Zetexa Provides Premium Meet &amp;amp; Greet and Lounge Services at Indian Airports</title>
<link>https://en.newsbolt.in/zetexa-provides-premium-meet-greet-and-lounge-services-at-indian-airports</link>
<guid>https://en.newsbolt.in/zetexa-provides-premium-meet-greet-and-lounge-services-at-indian-airports</guid>
<description><![CDATA[  

Airports
today are no longer just transit points. They have become part of the overall
travel experience, especially for business travellers, frequent flyers,
families, and international passengers moving through busy global hubs. Yet
modern travel still comes with familiar frustrations: long security queues,
delayed flights, crowded waiting areas, overpriced food, confusing airport
procedures, and expensive hotel gym passes during layovers or business trips.

Zetexa
addresses these challenges by bringing airport services, convenience,
and connectivity into one integrated platform. Through a single ecosystem,
travellers can access Meet &amp; Greet services, Fast Track security, airport
lounges, dining benefits, wellness access, VIP assistance, and global eSIM
connectivity.

The
platform provides access to more than 1,400 airport lounges, Fast Track
services at 140+ airports, over 1,400 dining outlets, and fitness facilities
across 686 cities worldwide. Coverage spans major international hubs such as
London, Dubai, Singapore, Frankfurt, Hong Kong, Istanbul, Delhi, Mumbai, JFK,
and Sydney, alongside strong regional airport coverage across India and other
countries.

Unlike
traditional airport membership programmes, Zetexa follows a transparent
pay-per-use model. Lounge access starts from USD 9, Fast Track services from
USD 6, set-meal dining from USD 32, and wellness sessions cost less than many
hotel gym day passes. There are no annual memberships or enrolment fees.
Travellers simply pay for the services they use.

What is Airport Meet
&amp; Greet and Is It Worth It?

Airport
Meet &amp; Greet is a personalised airport assistance service designed to
simplify airport movement from arrival to departure. Instead of navigating
crowded terminals independently, travellers receive support from a dedicated
airport representative through key touchpoints including check-in, baggage
handling, immigration, security, lounge access, and boarding.

For
arriving passengers, representatives meet travellers at the gate and assist
them through immigration, baggage collection, and airport exit procedures. For
departures, assistance begins at terminal entry and continues through check-in,
Fast Track security, immigration, lounge access, and boarding guidance.

The
service is especially useful for business travellers managing tight schedules,
elderly passengers, families travelling with children, first-time international
flyers, and travellers transiting through unfamiliar airports. The primary
value is reduced stress, easier navigation, and faster airport movement.

Arrival vs Departure
Meet &amp; Greet Explained

Arrival
Meet &amp; Greet services focus on helping travellers leave airports quickly
and comfortably. Passengers are met directly at the gate, guided through immigration
and baggage claim, and escorted toward the airport exit with assistance
throughout the process.

Departure
Meet &amp; Greet services begin at the terminal entrance. Travellers receive
support with check-in, baggage handling, Fast Track security, immigration
procedures, lounge access, and boarding guidance.

For
travellers moving through busy airports during peak periods, both services
reduce confusion, waiting time, and travel-related stress while making airport
navigation smoother and more predictable.

Why Choose Zetexa Meet
&amp; Greet Services

Zetexa
offers a wide range of Meet &amp; Greet plans across Indian airports, including
Pranaam Elite, Pranaam Gold, Pranaam Platinum, ATITHYA services, Care by BLR,
Primefly services, and lounge-integrated premium packages.

Across
these services, Zetexa focuses on simplifying airport movement through personal
assistance, baggage support, airport navigation, and priority handling at
security and immigration checkpoints.

What
differentiates Zetexa is that the platform extends beyond standalone airport
assistance. Travellers can combine Meet &amp; Greet services with lounge
access, Fast Track processing, dining benefits, wellness facilities, and global
connectivity through one integrated platform rather than relying on multiple
providers.

Benefits of Meet &amp;
Greet for Elderly &amp; First-Time International Travelers

Airport
Meet &amp; Greet services are especially valuable for elderly passengers who
may find large international airports physically exhausting and difficult to
navigate. Long walking distances, crowded terminals, and complicated airport
procedures can make travel stressful without assistance.

Dedicated
airport support reduces the strain of navigating terminals independently.
Representatives assist with airport procedures, baggage movement, and security
and immigration checkpoints.

For
first-time international travellers, guided airport assistance provides
reassurance throughout the journey. International travel often involves
multiple unfamiliar procedures including check-in, immigration, document
verification, security screening, baggage collection, and boarding. Meet &amp;
Greet services help travellers move confidently through each stage while
reducing confusion and delays.

Zetexa Enhances
Business Lounge Services at Indian Airports

Airport
lounges provide travellers with a quieter and more comfortable alternative to
crowded terminal waiting areas. Through Zetexa, lounge access is no longer
limited to business-class passengers or annual membership holders.

For
roughly the cost of a sandwich and coffee at the terminal, travellers gain
access to buffet meals, beverages, high-speed Wi-Fi, charging stations,
comfortable seating, and shower facilities at select locations. Most lounges
provide two to four hours of access away from crowded boarding gates and
constant announcements.

What
distinguishes Zetexa’s lounge network is the depth of regional coverage. In
India alone, lounges are available across 39 airports including Allahabad,
Jammu, Madurai, Calicut, Bhopal, Coimbatore, Dehradun, and Varanasi alongside
major hubs such as Delhi, Mumbai, Bengaluru, and Hyderabad.

Similar
regional coverage exists across China, Brazil, Saudi Arabia, Spain, Indonesia,
Vietnam, Italy, the United Kingdom, and the United States. This allows Zetexa
to serve both international travellers and domestic passengers flying shorter
regional routes.

What to Expect in an
Indian Business Lounge

At
major Indian airports including Delhi, Mumbai, Bengaluru, Hyderabad, Chennai,
Ahmedabad, and Kolkata, business lounges provide comfortable seating, internet
access, charging stations, workspaces, buffet dining, snacks, beverages, and
quieter seating zones away from crowded public areas.

Premium
lounges may also include shower facilities, wellness areas, and rest zones
useful for long international journeys or extended transit periods.

Popular
lounge brands across Indian airports include Adani Lounge, Encalm Lounge, 080
Lounge, Travel Club Lounge, Primus Lounge, Pearl Lounge, and Bird Lounge. These
lounges are designed to provide a calmer and more productive airport experience
for both domestic and international travellers.

Dining: A Real Meal at
the Terminal

Not
every traveller wants a full lounge experience. Some simply want a proper meal
at a predictable price before boarding. Zetexa’s dining network offers prepaid
set-meal vouchers and restaurant discounts at participating airport outlets
worldwide.

The
prepaid dining option allows travellers to lock in pricing before reaching the
airport, particularly useful in unfamiliar currencies or expensive
international terminals.

The
platform also provides discounts ranging from 10% to 20% at selected airport
restaurants and cafés. For families, budget-conscious travellers, and
passengers on shorter layovers, dining access offers a practical alternative to
crowded food courts and expensive snacks.

Health and Wellbeing:
Stay in Routine on the Road

Frequent
travellers often struggle to maintain wellness routines while travelling. Hotel
gyms may be expensive, unavailable, or difficult to access during short stays.

Zetexa
extends beyond airport services by providing access to gyms, fitness studios,
pilates centres, barre studios, and wellness facilities across 686 cities
worldwide. Travellers can book single-session access without purchasing
memberships or negotiating local drop-in rates.

A
traveller can attend a gym session in Dubai, a studio workout in London, or a
fitness class in São Paulo using the same platform. Yoga and meditation
experiences are also expected to launch soon.

Seamless International
Airport Travel for Indian Travelers with Zetexa

Indian
travellers flying through major international hubs such as Dubai International
Airport, Singapore Changi Airport, London Heathrow Airport, Suvarnabhumi
Airport, and Kuala Lumpur International Airport often face long queues, complex
terminal layouts, and crowded transit areas.

Zetexa
simplifies these journeys through integrated Meet &amp; Greet assistance, Fast
Track processing, lounge access, dining benefits, wellness access, and eSIM
connectivity.

Travellers
receive support with check-in, baggage handling, airport navigation,
immigration processing, and lounge access through one platform instead of
managing multiple providers separately.



Customer Experiences
with Zetexa Meet &amp; Greet &amp; Lounge Access

Travellers
using Zetexa services frequently highlight faster airport movement, reduced
waiting times, and smoother airport navigation as major benefits.

One
traveller arriving in Delhi described how Meet &amp; Greet assistance helped
them bypass long immigration queues, receive baggage support, and exit the
airport significantly faster than usual.

Another
traveller using departure assistance with lounge access explained that priority
support through check-in, security, and immigration allowed them to avoid long
lines before relaxing comfortably inside the lounge prior to boarding.

Stay Connected
Seamlessly with Zetexa eSIM

Staying
connected while travelling internationally is now essential, and Zetexa
integrates global eSIM connectivity into its broader travel platform.

Zetexa
eSIM supports connectivity across 180+ countries and 450+ telecom networks
through instant QR-based activation, flexible regional and global plans,
hotspot support, and simplified online management.

Compared
to traditional roaming, eSIM technology allows travellers to avoid expensive
roaming charges while keeping their primary SIM active for calls and messages.
Travellers can activate international data plans immediately upon arrival
without visiting local stores or changing physical SIM cards.

move through immigration checkpoints faster.

<title>VinayakM Introduces a New Paradigm in Women&amp;apos;s Mental Health and Happiness in South Delhi</title>
<link>https://en.newsbolt.in/vinayakm-introduces-a-new-paradigm-in-womens-mental-health-and-happiness-in-south-delhi</link>
<guid>https://en.newsbolt.in/vinayakm-introduces-a-new-paradigm-in-womens-mental-health-and-happiness-in-south-delhi</guid>
<description><![CDATA[  

New Delhi, 5 June 2026 : As conversations around mental health continue to gain momentum across
India, a new clinic in South Delhi is quietly making a more unusual argument:
that emotional well-being cannot be treated in isolation from the rest of a
woman&#039;s life. VinayakM, a mental health and lifestyle wellness clinic dedicated
to women in Greater Kailash-1, has opened its doors with an approach that reads
a woman&#039;s sleep, mood, nutrition, physical comfort and day-to-day capacity as a
single connected picture, and with a conviction that sets it apart from
conventional practice: that the purpose of care is not merely to settle an
acute complaint, but to lift the baseline of everyday living.

The idea grew out of a frustration familiar to many women navigating
today&#039;s wellness landscape. Amid the noise of advice, trends, treatments and
endless digital content, the emotional and physical signals of an overstretched
life, poor sleep, low mood, persistent aches, fatigue that no single specialist
seems to own, tend to be split across separate doctors and separate
appointments, each treating a fragment. VinayakM was built to put the fragments
back together, treating the woman rather than the symptom.

At the centre of that philosophy is the clinic&#039;s founder and lead
counsellor, Mani Sharma, whose own path to the work was anything but
conventional. Sharma began her career alongside investigative teams across
India, working on several high-profile criminal cases, an apprenticeship in
human behaviour at its most extreme. Over the years, her attention shifted from
understanding what had happened in people&#039;s lives to understanding what they
carried within them, a turn that drew her toward advanced study in psychology
and neuroscience. That education includes a series of programmes from Harvard
Health, among them Anxiety and Stress Disorders, Understanding Depression and
Positive Psychology, along with the Harvard Medical School continuing medical
education material Brain Medicine: Integrating the Clinical Neurosciences. She
also holds qualifications in Forensic Science and Forensic Psychology.

&quot;Many women spend years putting their own emotional and mental
needs on hold while holding everything else together, at home, at work, and for
everyone around them,&quot; says Mani Sharma. “We built this clinic as a confidential,
unhurried space where a woman&#039;s own well-being is finally the priority, and
where progress is something she can actually feel and measure.”

That insistence on measurement is what most distinguishes the Greater
Kailash clinic from a conventional therapy practice. Every client begins with
the Female Functional Health Score, or FFHS, a validated, multi-domain
assessment developed in-house that establishes a clear baseline across five
areas of life: Sleep Quality, Emotional Load, Body Comfort, Nutrition Stores
and Functional Capacity. From that baseline, the clinic builds a personalised
programme that evolves over time, with the aim of producing sustainable
improvement in sleep, emotional resilience, mood, relationships and everyday
functioning, gains that are tracked rather than left to impression.

Behind Ms Mani Sharma sits a deliberately multidisciplinary team,
organised around five connected pillars of care: psychology and counselling,
orthopaedics, nutrition, yoga therapy, and physiotherapy, the last of these
launching shortly. The model reflects a belief that runs through the whole
clinic: that the body and the mind are not separate clients. Among the
consulting specialists is Dr. Udit Vinayak, M.S. (Orthopaedics) Gold Medallist,
FIJR, Dip. FIFA and AO Trauma, an orthopaedic specialist focused on joint
preservation and bone health.

&quot;In orthopaedics, you learn quickly that an aching joint is
rarely only about the joint,&quot; says Dr. Vinayak. &quot;Pain, sleep, mood
and movement are all part of the same person. The honest way to care for
someone is to look at the whole life around the symptom, to lower the
discomfort she lives with and gently raise her baseline, rather than to treat
one part in isolation.&quot;

By design, VinayakM remains small and appointment-based, so that every
consultation can stay private, unhurried and centred on the individual,
scientific rigour delivered with warmth and personal attention rather than the
conveyor-belt feel of a busy outpatient department. To mark its opening, the
clinic is offering new clients a complimentary Female Functional Health Score
assessment: a structured, no-obligation review of their well-being across all
five domains, intended as an honest starting point rather than a sales pitch.

If VinayakM has a larger ambition, it is to nudge the national
conversation a little further along, away from simply coping, adjusting and
managing, and toward the quieter, more durable work of helping women build
healthier and more fulfilling everyday lives.

VinayakM is located on the 3rd Floor, B-23, N Block Market, Greater
Kailash-1, New Delhi – 110048 and is open from 9:00 a.m. to 8:00 p.m.
Appointments can be made on +91 92171 75397 or at vinayakm.in/appointment; more

New Delhi, May 2026 :
India’s leading gifting brand FNP (Ferns N Petals) has launched its Summer

hampers, and personalised gifting experiences inspired by the warmth, colour,
and spontaneity of summer. Brought together under the campaign thought, “50

celebrations, the collection blends fashion-forward styling with emotionally
expressive gifting moments. Featuring vibrant yellows, corals, soft pinks,
fresh greens, and sunflower-led arrangements, the range has been designed to
feel light, cheerful, and visually uplifting.

The collection responds

visits, and casual “thinking of you” gestures, making Ferns N Petals
a go-to destination for thoughtful and meaningful gifting. 

Among the hero products
are the Rose Sunscape Vase, a vibrant sunflower and pink floral
arrangement inspired by summer sunsets, and Amalfi Afternoon, a
Mediterranean-inspired arrangement featuring sunflowers, hydrangeas, and
seasonal blooms. The collection also introduces playful concepts like the Mango
Bouquet With Carnations, inspired by the nostalgia of Indian summers, along
with indulgent dessert offerings such as the Citrus Noir Mousse.

Commenting on the
launch, Avi Kumar, CMO at FNP, said, “With ‘50 Shades of Summer,’ we
wanted to create a collection that feels as vibrant, playful, and expressive as
the season itself. Inspired by sunlit escapes, tropical palettes, brunch
culture, and spontaneous summer moments, the collection blends contemporary
floral styling with emotionally uplifting gifting experiences designed for
today’s lifestyle-driven consumer.”

Designed to balance
premium aesthetics with accessibility, the collection is priced from ₹399 to
₹9,000, catering to both everyday gestures and elevated gifting moments.
The Summer Collection 2026 will be available pan-India across FNP’s website,
app, and retail stores, with select assortments also available through
hyperlocal delivery and quick commerce platforms in key cities.

<title>Milestone in Joint Care: Dr. Vipin Singh Crosses 15,000 Successful Knee Replacement Surgeries</title>
<link>https://en.newsbolt.in/milestone-in-joint-care-dr-vipin-singh-crosses-15000-successful-knee-replacement-surgeries</link>
<guid>https://en.newsbolt.in/milestone-in-joint-care-dr-vipin-singh-crosses-15000-successful-knee-replacement-surgeries</guid>
<description><![CDATA[ Varanasi : In an era where patients are becoming increasingly aware and
selective about healthcare choices, surgical experience continues to be one of
the most critical factors in building trust.

In the
field of orthopaedics, Dr. Vipin Singh, a prominent joint replacement surgeon
based in Varanasi, has achieved a significant milestone by successfully
completing more than 15,000 knee replacement surgeries.

This
achievement highlights not only his clinical expertise but also his consistent
track record in delivering reliable outcomes to patients suffering from chronic
knee conditions.

A
Remarkable Surgical Journey

Knee
replacement surgery is a specialized procedure that involves removing damaged
cartilage and bone from the knee joint and replacing them with artificial implants
designed to restore smooth movement.

It is
widely recommended for patients suffering from advanced arthritis, severe joint
pain, or mobility restrictions.

Reaching a
figure of 15,000 successful surgeries is a reflection of years of dedicated
practice, precision, and patient trust.

Such a high
volume of procedures allows a surgeon to develop refined techniques and a
deeper understanding of complex joint conditions.

Dr. Vipin
Singh’s experience spans a wide range of cases, including patients with severe
deformities, age-related degeneration, and long-standing mobility challenges.

His ability
to handle varied and complex cases has contributed significantly to his growing
reputation in orthopaedic care.

Impact on
Patient Lives

For most
patients, knee replacement surgery is a life-changing decision.

Chronic
knee pain often limits mobility, affects independence, and reduces overall
quality of life.

Under the
care of an experienced surgeon like Dr. Vipin Singh, patients have reported
substantial improvements after surgery.

One of the
most notable benefits is the significant reduction in joint pain, with many
patients experiencing complete relief over time.

In
addition, improved joint function enables individuals to perform everyday
activities such as walking, standing, and climbing stairs with ease.

The surgery
also helps in correcting joint deformities, restoring proper alignment and
balance.

This not
only improves physical comfort but also enhances confidence in movement.

Patients
often describe a renewed sense of independence after recovery, as they are able
to return to their normal routines and lead more active lifestyles.

While
high-impact physical activities are generally avoided, the overall improvement
in mobility contributes greatly to long-term well-being.

Blending
Experience with Innovation

Apart from
his extensive surgical experience, Dr. Vipin Singh is known for incorporating
modern techniques and advanced technologies into his practice.

This
includes robotic-assisted knee replacement and precision-based methods such as
FAST + ALIGN.

These
advancements enable:

• Accurate
placement of implants
• Better joint alignment
• Reduced surgical error
• Improved durability of the replacement

By
combining experience with innovation, Dr. Singh ensures that patients receive
treatment that is both effective and aligned with current global standards.

His
approach focuses on delivering not just immediate relief, but also long-term
stability and performance of the knee joint.

Recovery
and Patient Support

The success
of knee replacement surgery extends beyond the operation itself.

Recovery
and rehabilitation play a vital role in achieving desired outcomes.

Patients
typically require a short hospital stay followed by a structured rehabilitation
program.

Physiotherapy
and guided exercises help in restoring strength and flexibility in the joint.

Dr. Vipin
Singh emphasizes continuous patient support throughout this phase.

His
approach includes detailed guidance on post-operative care, ensuring that
patients are well-informed and actively involved in their recovery process.

Many
patients have acknowledged the importance of this personalized care, which
contributes to smoother recovery and better long-term results.

Recognition
and Credentials

Dr. Vipin
Singh’s work in orthopaedics has earned him recognition at multiple levels.

He has been
honored with the Tribalizers Award for North India’s Orthopaedic Care and
Medical Innovation, reflecting his contribution to advancing joint replacement
practices.

His
academic qualifications—M.B.B.S., M.S. (Orthopaedics), FJRS (Germany), and FIAS
(Ahmedabad)—demonstrate a strong foundation supported by international exposure
and specialized training.

These
credentials, combined with his extensive surgical experience, reinforce his
position as a trusted name in knee replacement surgery.

Strengthening
Regional Healthcare

Practicing
at Ashirvad Multispeciality Hospital, Varanasi, Dr. Vipin Singh is contributing
to the growth of advanced healthcare services in the region.

The
availability of modern infrastructure, including advanced operation theatres
and surgical technologies, has made it possible for patients to access
high-quality treatment without traveling to larger metropolitan cities.

Healthcare
professionals believe that such developments are playing a key role in
improving medical accessibility and raising standards in non-metro regions.

Conclusion

The
milestone of 15,000 successful knee replacement surgeries is a significant
achievement in the field of orthopaedics.

It reflects
not only technical expertise but also years of patient trust and consistent
performance.

For
individuals considering knee replacement surgery, factors such as experience,
technology, and patient care remain crucial.

In this
regard, Dr. Vipin Singh’s extensive track record and patient-focused approach
position him as a reliable choice for advanced joint replacement treatment in
Varanasi. ]]></description>

<title>MDIndia Health Insurance TPA Expands Chennai Operations; New Centre of Excellence to Strengthen Health Claims Management in South India</title>
<link>https://en.newsbolt.in/mdindia-health-insurance-tpa-expands-chennai-operations-new-centre-of-excellence-to-strengthen-health-claims-management-in-south-india</link>

<description><![CDATA[ Chennai,
4th June 2026:  
MDIndia Health Insurance TPA Pvt. Ltd. has announced a major expansion
of its Chennai operations, marking an important milestone in the company’s
growth journey and its commitment to strengthening health insurance
administration across South India.

An
IRDAI-registered third-party administrator, MDIndia TPA has been part of
India’s health insurance ecosystem for more than two decades. The expansion
comes at a time when claim servicing, hospital coordination and customer
support have become increasingly crucial for policyholders, insurers, hospitals
and corporate clients. With 23 offices across Tamil Nadu and four offices in
Chennai, MDIndia TPA is further deepening its presence in the state. A fifth
Centre of Excellence for Health Claims Management is also being established in
Chennai very soon.

MDIndia’s
journey in Tamil Nadu began with its first branch office at Mount Road, Anna
Salai, followed by its presence at Guna Complex and Raheja Towers. As
healthcare administration needs increased in the region, the company’s initial
footprint in Kilpauk expanded into three dedicated offices. Its latest branch
extension at NRCS Tower, Nungambakkam, reflects the rising importance of
Chennai as a healthcare and insurance services hub.

From
an initial phase of about 100 employees, MDIndia’s Chennai operations have now
grown to more than 450 professionals. The company is also adding over 120
claims processing doctors, which is expected to strengthen faster claim
servicing, provider management and seamless customer support.

Speaking
on the expansion, Mr. Sameer Bhonsale, Managing Director, MDIndia Health
Insurance TPA Pvt. Ltd., said, “At MDIndia, we understand that our role begins
at one of the most crucial stages of a human life — when a person or family is
inside a hospital, looking for clarity, support and reassurance. We are
committed to serving the public with empathy, speed and responsibility. Our
Chennai expansion is not only about a new office or larger operations; it is
about bringing dependable health claims management closer to people, hospitals
and insurers when they need it most.”

A
core pillar of the expansion is MDIndia’s focus on local talent development and
“home earning” opportunities. The company said many healthcare and corporate
professionals from Tamil Nadu earlier had to relocate to Delhi, Mumbai,
Bengaluru or Pune for larger career opportunities. By expanding in Chennai,
MDIndia aims to create high-growth avenues for local professionals while
allowing them to remain rooted in their home state.

The
upcoming Centre of Excellence is expected to deliver strong advantages to
clients while reinforcing MDIndia’s long-term commitment to healthcare
accessibility, efficiency and technology-led service delivery across South
India. The company is also investing resources and expertise to operationalise
an AI and machine-learning-driven intelligent claims adjudication system, aimed
at building a futuristic model for automated health claims management. ]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[  

After redefining Indian
entertainment for decades, Ektaa Kapoor is stepping into a new entrepreneurial
chapter with Ekatra Jewels, a modern luxury brand bringing together innovation,
contemporary design, and conscious luxury.

 

Known for creating
stories centred around strong, ambitious women, Ektaa’s association with Ekatra
reflects her belief in building brands that resonate with the aspirations of
today’s generation. The collaboration also marks a special coming together of
two long-time friends, Ektaa Kapoor and Sussanne Khan, who now unite through a
shared vision for modern luxury and self-expression.

 

Speaking about the
association, Ektaa Kapoor said, “I’ve spent years creating stories about women
who shape their own journeys and define success on their own terms, and Ekatra
is a natural extension of that belief. What excites me most is the opportunity
to build something contemporary and meaningful for the way women live and
express themselves today.

 

“Sussanne and I have
shared a friendship built on mutual admiration and respect for many years, so
collaborating through Ekatra felt incredibly organic. We both believe in
creating brands that reflect the aspirations, individuality, and confidence of
modern women. Every generation gets to redefine luxury, and Ekatra is our way
of creating a brand that resonates with the values, aspirations, and choices of
modern women. More than jewellery, it’s about celebrating self-expression and
the stories we carry with us.”

 

The brand recently
unveiled a new collection in collaboration with Sussanne Khan, bringing
together innovation, design, and a fresh perspective on modern luxury. The
partnership reflects a shared vision of creating products that are stylish,
contemporary, and relevant to today’s women.

 

With storytelling,
design, and innovation at its core, Ekatra aims to build a modern luxury brand
that speaks to a new generation of Indian women.

<title>Broken Data Infrastructure Is the Silent Killer of Digital Growth, Says BrandLoom</title>
<link>https://en.newsbolt.in/broken-data-infrastructure-is-the-silent-killer-of-digital-growth-says-brandloom</link>
<guid>https://en.newsbolt.in/broken-data-infrastructure-is-the-silent-killer-of-digital-growth-says-brandloom</guid>
<description><![CDATA[  New Delhi, India —
June 4, 2026: Businesses investing heavily in
digital marketing are leaving growth on the table, not because their strategies
are flawed, but because the data infrastructure beneath them is broken, warns
BrandLoom, a growth-focused
branding and digital marketing &amp; consulting firm.

The
company points to a growing but underacknowledged crisis across mid-size and
enterprise organizations: analytics environments riddled with tracking gaps,
attribution models that contradict one another, and leadership teams making
multi-crore decisions on data they cannot trust.

&quot;Most
organizations don&#039;t have a marketing problem. They have a data integrity problem
disguised as one,&quot; said Anupama, CTO and Co-Founder of BrandLoom.
&quot;When your analytics infrastructure is broken, every decision downstream
is compromised: your budget allocation, your channel mix, your growth
forecasts. You are essentially navigating at speed with a faulty instrument
panel.&quot;

The Broken Analytics Problem

According
to BrandLoom, the majority of growing businesses operate with fragmented data
ecosystems, multiple platforms collecting overlapping signals, inconsistent
event taxonomies, and no single source of truth. The result is dashboards that
look comprehensive but measure different things, rendering them unreliable as
decision-making tools.

Tag
misconfigurations, untracked conversion paths, and siloed platform data mean
that a significant portion of marketing activity goes unmeasured, or worse,
gets measured incorrectly and reported as success.

&quot;We
have seen organizations confident in a channel&#039;s performance, only to discover
upon audit that their attribution setup had been double-counting conversions
for months,&quot; Anupama said. &quot;The numbers looked good. The business was
not growing accordingly. That disconnect is always a data infrastructure
problem first.&quot;

Attribution Chaos and the Cost of Guessing

As
customer journeys grow more complex, spanning organic search, paid media,
email, social, and direct, attribution has become one of the most contested and
misunderstood functions in modern marketing.

BrandLoom
observes that most organizations default to last-click attribution by
convenience, not by design, a model that systematically undervalues
upper-funnel activity and distorts budget decisions. Others implement
multi-touch models without the clean event data required to make them accurate,
compounding the confusion.

The
consequence is attribution chaos: marketing teams are unable to defend their
investments with confidence, and leadership teams are unable to distinguish
which growth levers are genuinely working.

&quot;Attribution
is not a reporting feature. It is a strategic function,&quot; Anupama said.
&quot;When it is built on unclean data, it does not just misrepresent
performance. It actively misdirects investment.&quot;

BrandLoom&#039;s AIM Framework Places Data Integrity at the Core
of Growth Architecture

BrandLoom
positions clean data infrastructure not as a technical nicety, but as the
foundational prerequisite for what it calls Decision Intelligence, the
organizational capacity to act on accurate, real-time signals with confidence
and speed.

Within
BrandLoom&#039;s proven AIM (Alignment-Integration-Momentum) Growth Architecture
framework, data infrastructure sits at the heart of the Integration pillar.

Unifying
CRM systems, advertising platforms, analytics environments, and content
ecosystems into a single coherent layer is not an IT function. It is a
strategic imperative that determines whether marketing can generate compounding
momentum or remain trapped in episodic guesswork.

&quot;Growth
Architecture only works when the data layer is clean,&quot; Anupama said.
&quot;Integration without data integrity is noise at scale. When the
infrastructure is sound, every initiative becomes measurable, every insight
becomes actionable, and leadership gains the clarity to allocate resources
where they compound, not where they simply spend.&quot;

What Organizations Must Do Now

BrandLoom
recommends that organizations treat data infrastructure as a board-level
concern rather than a technical backlog item. Specifically, the firm advises:

Conducting
a full analytics audit to identify tracking gaps, misconfigured events, and
attribution inconsistencies before any further marketing investment is made.

Establishing
a unified data layer that connects every major marketing and revenue platform,
eliminating siloed reporting and creating a single, trusted source of
performance truth.

Graduating
from vanity metrics to Decision Intelligence dashboards, real-time visibility
into contribution margins, customer acquisition cost, lifetime value, and
multi-touch attribution that leadership can act on with confidence.

&quot;The
organizations scaling predictably are not the ones spending the most. They are
the ones who know exactly what is working and why,&quot; Anupama said.
&quot;That certainty is only possible when the data foundation is built
correctly.&quot;

About BrandLoom

BrandLoom
is a Strategic Brand, Digital, Design &amp; Intelligence Partner helping
businesses build scalable, measurable, and trust-driven growth systems.

We
help growth-focused and enterprise brands move beyond fragmented marketing
activities by integrating brand strategy, digital growth, customer experience,
analytics, and AI-enhanced intelligence into connected growth systems designed
to improve visibility, customer acquisition, customer experience, operational
efficiency, and measurable ROI.

<title>Diversity hiring up 21% as India’s overall hiring cools — Bengaluru, IT, and BFSI show the way for inclusive hiring</title>

<description><![CDATA[ PwD
hiring triples in two years; 1 in 5 diversity hires now at leadership level as
inclusive hiring shifts south

Bengaluru,
04th June 2026 : India’s overall white-collar hiring
moderated in May 2026, declining 4% year-on-year and 6% month-on-month,
according to the latest foundit Insights Tracker (fit) by foundit, Asia’s
leading jobs and talent platform foundit. 

Against
this broader slowdown, diversity hiring grew 21% year-on-year in May 2026—
a decoupling that reflects sustained employer commitment to inclusive workforce
strategies even as overall recruitment activity remains selective.

Women
accounted for 56% of all diversity-focused recruitment, while PwD
representation has tripled over two years, growing to 12%, and
D&amp;I-focused hiring — which includes LGBTQIA+ and neurodiverse talent — has
expanded to nearly a third of all diversity hires.

“While
overall hiring has grown more selective, organisations continue to invest in
talent areas that support long-term business resilience,” said
Tarun Sinha, CEO, foundit. “The sustained momentum in diversity hiring
reflects a structural shift in how India Inc. is approaching inclusion — less
as a compliance requirement and more as a capability strategy. The expansion
into leadership roles, technology functions, and previously underrepresented
groups such as PwD signals a more integrated and mature approach to building
future-ready workforces.”

Key

<description><![CDATA[  A
future ready learning ecosystem rooted in academic excellence, holistic
development, and a Success Mindset

Pune,
June 04, 2026 : Education today is no longer only about
preparing children for examinations. It is about preparing them for life,
leadership, relationships, innovation, and an ever changing world. With this
vision at its core, Delhi Public School Pune East is
set to begin a new educational journey in Pune’s rapidly growing eastern
corridor.

After
the immense trust and encouragement received from families at Delhi Public
School branches across the country, along with the remarkable growth and
development witnessed in students over the years, the DPS family is now
expanding its commitment to meaningful education with the launch of Delhi
Public School Pune East at Ubale Nagar, Wagholi, Pune. 

Expression
of Interest for Nursery to Grade VI admissions will start from 1st
July 2026 for the upcoming academic session. The school plans to
progressively expand and offer classes up to Grade XII in the coming years. 

With
a rich legacy spanning over 75 years, the Delhi Public School network has
earned a strong reputation as one of India’s most respected CBSE educational
institutions. Its unwavering commitment to academic excellence, progressive
education, innovation, and holistic child development continues to shape
generations of learners across India and abroad.

Today,
the DPS family carries a truly transcontinental presence, not simply as a
network of schools, but as a thriving educational ecosystem built on shared
values, strong systems, meaningful relationships, and a collective commitment
towards nurturing responsible and future ready global citizens.

Under
the aegis of the DPS Society, New Delhi, DPS Pune East is being envisioned as a
unique learning space for Pune, a school where children are encouraged to
become self directed learners who understand themselves, think critically,
collaborate meaningfully, and grow with confidence and character.

The
institution’s philosophy is deeply rooted in the belief that true success lies
in the balance of competence and character. The school aims to nurture students
across five key dimensions including social, emotional, cognitive, spiritual,
and physical development, helping them become grounded, resilient,
compassionate, and life ready individuals deeply connected to Indian culture
and values.

Sharing
his thoughts on the launch, Mr. Siddharth Rajgarhia, Chief Learner and
Director, said, “Every child carries immense potential within. Our role as
educators is not merely to complete a syllabus, but to help children develop
the mindset, habits, confidence, compassion, and resilience required to lead
meaningful lives. At DPS Pune East, we aspire to create a learning culture where
children are encouraged to question, reflect, innovate, collaborate, and
discover their true potential. We want students to leave school not only
academically strong, but truly prepared for life.” The school leadership team
is led by Promoter and Chairman Mr. Gautam Rajgarhia and Chief Learner and
Director Mr. Siddharth Rajgarhia. 

DPS
Pune East will feature AI enabled infrastructure, smart tech classrooms, STEM
and subject specific labs, premier performing arts facilities, global cultural
exchange opportunities, and extensive indoor and outdoor sports infrastructure
including dedicated spaces for basketball, football, cricket, badminton, and
pickleball.

The
school also places strong emphasis on student safety and well being, where the
safety of every child remains a top priority. The campus will include 24×7 CCTV
surveillance, GPS enabled transportation systems, and structured child safety
protocols. 

Located
in one of Pune’s fastest developing educational and residential corridors, DPS
Pune East aims to emerge as a nurturing institution where children do not
simply study for marks, but learn to think deeply, act responsibly, communicate
confidently, and lead purpose driven lives.

<title>Greater Whitefield: The New Growth Engine of East Bengaluru</title>
<link>https://en.newsbolt.in/greater-whitefield-the-new-growth-engine-of-east-bengaluru</link>
<guid>https://en.newsbolt.in/greater-whitefield-the-new-growth-engine-of-east-bengaluru</guid>
<description><![CDATA[  

East Bengaluru is entering a new phase of growth, with
Greater Whitefield emerging as one of the city&#039;s most promising real estate
corridors. Extending beyond Whitefield towards Budigere Cross and Old Madras
Road, the region is benefiting from a powerful combination of infrastructure
investments, employment expansion, and residential development.

Connectivity remains a key growth driver. Major
infrastructure projects including the Bengaluru–Chennai Expressway, Satellite
Town Ring Road (STRR), Peripheral Ring Road, and the expanding Metro network
are significantly enhancing accessibility across East Bengaluru. These upgrades
are expected to strengthen links between residential communities, business
districts, industrial clusters, and the airport, further improving the region&#039;s
long-term growth prospects.

The corridor is also supported by strong economic
fundamentals. Established employment hubs such as ITPL and the broader
Whitefield technology ecosystem continue to attract a large professional
workforce, while emerging commercial and industrial developments are creating
additional demand for quality housing. As central micro-markets become
increasingly dense and expensive, homebuyers are looking toward larger,
better-planned communities that offer both lifestyle benefits and long-term
appreciation potential.

At the forefront of this transformation stands SOBHA
OneWorld, a 48-acre integrated mega community designed around the
principles of large-scale, holistic urban living. With nearly 80% of the
development dedicated to open spaces and landscaped environments, the township
features a series of themed lifestyle zones including Temperate Enclave,
Mediterranean Serenity, Tropical Zen, Continental Grounds, and the World
Stadium - anchored by a 90-metre-diameter football field and a dedicated
cricket ground. These distinct zones have been thoughtfully planned to offer
residents a diverse mix of recreation, wellness, sports, and community
experiences. At the heart of the development is One Club, an
approximately 1,20,000 sq. ft. three-tiered clubhouse offering wellness,
recreation, co-working, dining, and social spaces, while One Emporium, a
65,000 sq. ft. boulevard-facing retail destination, brings curated shopping and
dining experiences within easy reach. Together, these elements create a
self-sustained ecosystem that reflects the evolving aspirations of modern
homebuyers seeking far more than just a residential address.

The first residential offering within the township, One
Residences, comprises 3,484 thoughtfully designed homes across 14 towers
rising up to 46 floors. Offering 1, 2, 3, and 4 BHK residences ranging from
1,063 to 2,415 sq. ft., the project has been planned to balance urban density
with openness, comfort, and liveability. The scale of the development, combined
with SOBHA&#039;s emphasis on quality, planning, and community-centric design,
positions it as one of the most significant residential launches in East
Bengaluru.

Ahead of its grand launch in mid-June, SOBHA OneWorld has
already generated significant interest from discerning homebuyers. With
infrastructure projects gaining momentum, employment hubs continuing to expand,
and a landmark township entering the market, Greater Whitefield is
well-positioned for sustained growth. For homebuyers and investors alike, the
opportunity to participate in the region&#039;s next chapter has rarely looked more
compelling.

<description><![CDATA[ Pune :
Bakliwal Tutorials (BT) has once again delivered an impressive performance in
the JEE Advanced 2026 examination, reinforcing its position as one of Pune’s
leading engineering entrance coaching institutes. The results, announced on

Aditya Thakur emerged
as the top performer from the institute by securing an All India Rank (AIR) of
162. Siddharth Athaley followed closely with AIR 185. Other high achievers from
BT included Srujal Bhute (AIR 218), Aadi Mahajan (AIR 253), and Avnish Kholkar
(AIR 359), all of whom secured ranks within the national Top 400.

According to the
institute, the first four among these students achieved Pune Ranks 2, 3, 4 and

city’s top performers.

The institute reported
that 14 students secured ranks within the AIR Top 1,000, while 67 students
featured in the AIR Top 4,000. Additionally, 145 students earned ranks within
the AIR Top 10,000 in the Common Rank List. The process of compiling the
complete results is still underway, and the institute expects these numbers to
increase further.

BT stated that it has
recorded the highest number of ranks in Pune across the Top 1,000, Top 4,000
and Top 10,000 categories, attributing the achievement to the consistent
efforts of students, faculty members and parents.

Commenting on the
results, Vaibhav Bakliwal, Director of Bakliwal Tutorials, said, “Every year,
these results fill me with deep gratitude. This success is not merely about
numbers; it reflects the perseverance of our students, the trust of parents and
the commitment of our teachers towards first-principles learning and conceptual
clarity.”

The institute
emphasized that its academic approach focuses on conceptual understanding,
problem-solving abilities and mental resilience. Students are supported through
a team of experienced faculty members, carefully designed study material,
regular assessments, an encouraging learning environment and personalised
doubt-solving sessions.

Bakliwal Tutorials,
founded in 2005 by Vaibhav Bakliwal, an IIT Bombay Mechanical Engineering
graduate and former Tata Motors professional, has grown into one of
Maharashtra’s prominent coaching institutes for JEE Main, JEE Advanced, BITSAT,
MHT-CET, Foundation and Olympiad preparation. The institute currently mentors
more than 6,000 students across its centres and has consistently produced
Maharashtra toppers and high-ranking performers in national-level competitive
examinations.

BT has congratulated
all successful students and wished them success in their future academic and
professional pursuits. ]]></description>

<title>From Market Learner to Financial Educator: Sharique Waseem’s Journey Towards Investor Awareness</title>
<link>https://en.newsbolt.in/from-market-learner-to-financial-educator-sharique-waseems-journey-towards-investor-awareness</link>
<guid>https://en.newsbolt.in/from-market-learner-to-financial-educator-sharique-waseems-journey-towards-investor-awareness</guid>
<description><![CDATA[ Ahmedabad, India – June 2026 : As India’s investor base continues to expand at an
unprecedented pace, the demand for financial literacy and informed investing
has become more critical than ever. Contributing to this growing movement
is Sharique Waseem, a NISM-certified Research Analyst whose
eight-year journey in the stock market reflects a commitment to continuous
learning, disciplined investing, and investor education.

Sharique’s fascination with financial
markets began with a simple curiosity about how businesses create value and how
economic developments influence market behavior. What started as an interest
gradually evolved into a deep understanding of equity markets, company
fundamentals, investment research, and long-term wealth creation.

Inspired by the investment philosophy of
legendary investor Rakesh Jhunjhunwala, Sharique advocates a
business-first approach to investing. He believes that sustainable success in
the stock market comes from understanding the fundamentals of a company rather
than reacting to short-term market fluctuations. His analytical framework
focuses on evaluating financial statements, business models, industry dynamics,
and macroeconomic factors that drive long-term growth.

“Markets are not just about numbers
moving on a screen. They are a reflection of businesses, innovation, and
economic progress,” says Sharique Waseem.

Over the years, the stock market has played
a transformative role in shaping his professional outlook and personal growth.
Through market participation and research, he has cultivated analytical
thinking, patience, discipline, and a deeper appreciation of the principles of
wealth creation. These experiences have also reinforced his belief that
financial education is essential for individuals seeking to navigate today’s
increasingly complex investment landscape.

Recognizing that many first-time investors
enter financial markets without adequate foundational knowledge, Sharique has
increasingly focused on investor awareness and education. He advocates a
research-driven approach to investing and encourages aspiring market
participants to prioritize learning, risk awareness, and informed
decision-making over speculation.

Furthering this mission, Sharique is
currently developing FinMarketPrep, an online platform designed to
support candidates preparing for various NISM certification examinations. The
platform aims to provide structured mock-question practice, helping learners
strengthen their understanding of examination concepts, improve familiarity
with test patterns, and build confidence through practical preparation.

Industry experts note that as retail
participation in India’s capital markets continues to rise, initiatives that
promote financial literacy and professional certification preparedness can play
a meaningful role in creating a more informed and responsible investing
ecosystem.

Looking ahead, Sharique remains committed
to empowering individuals through financial education, fostering a culture of
continuous learning, and helping aspiring investors develop a deeper
understanding of capital markets and long-term wealth creation.

About Sharique Waseem

Sharique Waseem is a NISM-certified
Research Analyst with more than eight years of experience in equity markets and
investment research. Passionate about financial literacy and investor
education, he actively promotes informed investing practices and is currently
working on FinMarketPrep, a platform focused on NISM examination preparation
and financial market learning.

<description><![CDATA[ Supported
by the Office of the Principal Scientific Advisor to the Government of India,
the Department of Pharmaceuticals, Biotechnology Industry Research Assistance
Council, and Invest India

A
first-of-its-kind national platform honouring the people and institutions
shaping the next chapter of life sciences in India

New
Delhi, June 3, 2026 : In line with the Hon’ble Prime Minister’s
vision, the Federation of Indian Chambers of Commerce &amp; Industry (FICCI)
today announced the launch of the ‘Bharat Life Sciences Awards’, a
first-of-its-kind national institutional platform to recognise excellence in
life sciences research, capability, and public health impact in India, in
partnership with Eli Lilly and Company (India).

Conceived
as a rigorous, independent, and enduring platform, the awards are anchored in a
shared national vision for Viksit Bharat, recognising that sustained progress
in health is driven by a sustained commitment to innovation.

This
initiative convened in consultation with the Office of the Principal Scientific
Adviser to the Government of India and the Department of Pharmaceuticals (DoP),
with the Biotechnology Industry Research Assistance Council (BIRAC) and Invest
India, will bring together a unique ecosystem of innovators, researchers, and institutions
across the life sciences sector.

The
inaugural Bharat Life Sciences Awards ceremony will be held on 1st October
2026, marking a defining moment in recognising and celebrating India’s
scientific excellence.

The
Bharat Life Sciences Awards will be governed by an eminent Advisory Council and
adjudicated by an independent jury of experts in life sciences, innovation, and
public health. Grant Thornton Bharat will serve as the Process Advisor,
reinforcing the platform’s commitment to transparency, credibility, and
integrity at every stage.

The
awards seek to recognise contributions across the life sciences value chain,
spanning academia, public research institutions, industry innovators, and
ecosystem builders whose work bridges discovery and delivery, strengthens
health systems, and advances public health outcomes at scale. In doing so, the
awards draw on India’s long-standing scientific legacy—rooted in a
civilisational instinct for inquiry, seen in early centres of learning such as
Takshashila and Nalanda, and in foundational contributions like the Sushruta
Samhita and Charaka Samhita, which shaped the practice of medicine. This legacy
is not defined by singular breakthroughs or lone figures, but by an enduring
continuum of inquiry, refinement, and application, reflected across generations
of pioneering scientists whose contributions continue to underpin India’s
present-day leadership in life sciences and its growing impact on global
health.

Dr.
Jitendra Kumar, Managing Director, Biotechnology Industry Research Assistance
Council (BIRAC) said, “India&#039;s biotechnology ecosystem continues to
advance through a strong focus on innovation, entrepreneurship, and
translational research, with increasing collaboration across academia,
industry, and start-ups. Platforms such as the Bharat Life Sciences Awards can
play a valuable role in bringing together stakeholders across this ecosystem,
recognising excellence and supporting the translation of science into solutions
for public health.” 

Jyoti
Vij, Director General, FICCI said, “India’s life
sciences sector stands at a defining moment, driven by scientific innovation,
entrepreneurial energy, and stronger collaboration across academia, industry,
startups, and government institutions. The Bharat Life Sciences Awards aim to
create a credible and enduring national platform that recognises excellence
across the ecosystem and celebrates the individuals and institutions advancing
healthcare innovation and public health impact. Through this initiative, FICCI
is proud to partner with stakeholders across the ecosystem to further
strengthen India’s position as a global hub for life sciences research,
innovation, and healthcare solutions.”

“India’s
life sciences ecosystem is reaching a new level of scientific maturity, with
the talent, institutions, and ambition to contribute meaningfully to global
health,” said Winselow Tucker, President and General Manager, Eli Lilly and
Company (India). “As Lilly marks 150 years globally in 2026, we remain
guided by our purpose of uniting caring with discovery to improve health for
people around the world. We are proud to support the Bharat Life Sciences
Awards as an enabling partner—recognising the science and the broader ecosystem
of researchers, institutions, and innovators advancing it, and their collective
role in driving meaningful and enduring public health impact in India.”

India’s
life sciences ecosystem is entering a new phase of scientific maturity—moving
from manufacturing to discovery, from implementation to invention. The Bharat
Life Sciences Awards situate today’s scientists within that continuum,
honouring not only what has been achieved so far, but the people, teams, and
institutions shaping what comes next, in India and globally. The platform is
built to endure—to grow in stature cycle after cycle, surface under-recognised
excellence, and strengthen India’s contribution to science for local and global
good.

<title>Mister Hair Clinics Unveils ‘100&#45;Clinic Vision’, Opens Nationwide Franchise Partnerships Across India</title>

<description><![CDATA[  Featured in Outlook Business, the Bengaluru-based hair &amp; skin care group
plans to scale from 16 to 100 clinics by 2031 - prioritising underserved tier-2
and tier-3 cities alongside selective metro flagships.

BENGALURU,
INDIA, 3 June 2026 : Mister Hair Clinics, one of India’s
fastest-scaling hair and skin care clinic networks, today unveiled its
‘100-Clinic Vision’ - a plan to grow from 16 clinics today to 100 clinics
across India by 2031 - and opened franchise partnership applications to
entrepreneurs, investors and healthcare operators nationwide.

Having
served more than 4,800 patients and recently profiled in Outlook Business’s
‘Growth Makers’ feature as “Building India’s First 100-Clinic Aesthetic Brand,”
the group is inviting partners to help build a trusted, branded category in a
market still served largely by standalone salons and single, unbranded clinics.

The
opportunity is substantial. India’s hair-transplant market is growing at
roughly 22% a year - from about US$252 million in 2024 toward an estimated
US$1.74 billion by 2033 (IMARC Group) - while the country’s medical-aesthetics
market is projected to more than double, from about US$1.86 billion in 2024 to
US$4.39 billion by 2033 (DataM Intelligence). India is the fastest-growing
hair-transplant market in the Asia-Pacific region, and the average onset age of
pattern baldness has fallen to the early twenties, driven by genetics, stress
and lifestyle.

Mister
Hair’s franchise is built on a single, repeatable operating playbook - the same
diagnostic workflow, treatment protocols, patient-management software, central
marketing and lead generation that scaled the group from one clinic to sixteen.
From July 2026, every clinic will also house Miss Skin, the group’s dedicated
skin-care brand, giving each location two revenue lines under one roof without
doubling real estate or overheads.

“I’m
not building a clinic - I’m building a category,” said Rajaram Sundaramurthy,
Founder of Mister Hair Clinics. “We’ve proven the model across 16 clinics. The
next five years are about taking that playbook, city by city, to partners who
share our commitment to clinical standards and want to build something that
lasts.”

The
expansion is deliberately weighted toward high-demand tier-2 and tier-3 cities,
where demand outpaces supply - among them Coimbatore, Kochi, Visakhapatnam,
Vijayawada, Surat, Nagpur, Jaipur, Chandigarh, Lucknow, Indore, Bhubaneswar and
Patna - complemented by selective metro flagships in Mumbai, Pune, Ahmedabad,
Delhi NCR and Kolkata. Mister Hair currently operates across Bengaluru, Mysuru,
Hubballi, Davangere, Tirupati and Hyderabad.

“Most
clinic chains crowd the metros and stop there. We go where the demand is
loudest and the competition is thinnest,” added Dr Rajaram Sundaramurthy. “For
the right local partner, that is a once-in-a-decade chance to lead a category
in their city.”

Franchise
partners receive end-to-end support - site selection and clinic design,
equipment specification and vendor onboarding, doctor and technician
recruitment and training, brand marketing and lead generation, and the group’s
patient-management systems and SOPs - along with access to an upcoming consumer
hair-care range built on the same clinical actives. Territories are awarded
selectively. Prospective partners can apply at reachus@misterhair.in or visit
our website https://misterhair.in/franchise.html

<description><![CDATA[ Next-Generation Agentic Security Workflow Automation
Platform Transforms How Security Teams Detect, Respond, and Manage Cyber Risk
at Scale

Netherlands :  Gambit Cyber B.V, a Netherlands-headquartered
cybersecurity company specialising in AI-native, risk-centric Continuous Threat
Exposure Management (CTEM), today announced the launch of Vizier AI, its
next-generation Agentic Security Workflow Automation platform that uses
coordinated AI agents to continuously monitor threats, orchestrate incident
response, and manage cyber risk without requiring manual intervention from
security teams. The launch directly addresses a widening gap between the
complexity of today&#039;s threat landscape and the shrinking resources available to
corporate security operations.

Security teams worldwide are under mounting pressure.
Industry estimates put the average cost of a data breach at $4.44 million
globally. Most organisations are defending against increasingly sophisticated
threats with teams that are already stretched thin. Vizier AI is purpose-built
for this reality, enabling organisations to scale security operations through
AI-driven automation.

Built as a core component of the KnightGuard platform,
Vizier AI acts as an autonomous Security Intelligence Workspace and leverages a
coordinated network of autonomous agentic agents that continuously monitor
threats, analyse security data, orchestrate workflows, and deliver actionable
insights across the enterprise for faster, more informed decision-making. The
result is a shift from reactive, alert-driven operations to proactive,
intelligence-driven cyber defence.

As cybersecurity environments become increasingly complex
and resource-constrained, Vizier AI empowers security teams to reduce manual
effort, accelerate response times, and improve operational effectiveness. The
platform continuously monitors attack surfaces, identifies emerging risks,
automates repetitive security tasks, and provides real-time intelligence to
support faster and more informed decision-making.

Vizier AI enables organisations to scale security operations
through AI-driven automation while maintaining visibility, governance, and
control across their exposure management programs.

KEY CAPABILITIES

Detect Threats: Identify risks before they escalate with
continuous, AI-driven attack surface monitoring, including external, cloud and
dark web.

Automate Workflows: Reduce manual security tasks through
intelligent orchestration of end-to-end security processes.

Accelerate Response: Respond to incidents with speed using
autonomous AI agents that act on your behalf.

Generate Insights: Turn raw security data into actionable
intelligence for faster, more informed decision-making.

AI-Powered Operations: Work smarter with an autonomous
cybersecurity workforce that scales with your organisation.

“The launch of Vizier AI represents a fundamental shift in
how organisations approach cyber defence. We are not simply automating existing
workflows, we are deploying a coordinated intelligence layer that thinks,
analyses, and acts continuously on behalf of security teams. AI agents
operating in concert can process signals, correlate threats, and orchestrate
responses at a speed and scale that is simply beyond human capacity alone.
Vizier AI is our answer to the growing gap between the complexity of the modern
threat landscape and the resources available to defend against it” said Anuj
Kumar, Co-founder &amp; CEO, Gambit Cyber

“Visier AI is built around a simple truth: security teams
are under immense pressure, and they need tools that work as hard as they do.
For our customers and MSSP partners, this launch delivers a stage that is
immediately actionable, deeply integrated into their existing workflows, and
backed by a partner ecosystem designed to deliver real outcomes. We built
Vizier AI to be the autonomous workforce our customers wished they had, one
that operates around the clock, never misses an exposure, and continuously
improves every engagement.” said Manuj Kumar, Co-founder &amp; CRO,
Gambit Cyber

AVAILABILITY

Vizier AI is available now as part of the KnightGuard
platform. Organisations interested in accessing the platform through Gambit
Cyber’s partner ecosystem are encouraged to contact Gambit Cyber to arrange a
demonstration

<title>Mumbai 3.0 Reflects the MMR’s Biggest Urban Transformation Yet</title>
<link>https://en.newsbolt.in/mumbai-30-reflects-the-mmrs-biggest-urban-transformation-yet</link>
<guid>https://en.newsbolt.in/mumbai-30-reflects-the-mmrs-biggest-urban-transformation-yet</guid>
<description><![CDATA[ Mumbai’s real estate market story has evolved in waves. A
look at the city’s urban growth history shows how dominance shifted from South
Mumbai with the suburban expansion, followed by the rise of Navi Mumbai and the
rise of Thane.  With the Maharashtra government
announcing the Mumbai 3.0 project, the next chapter of Mumbai’s growth story
appears to be unfolding. This time, it will spread across the extended Mumbai
Metropolitan Region (MMR).

Even as “Mumbai 3.0” does not yet have a formal industry
definition, developers and market experts have used the term to describe
Mumbai’s next phase of outward expansion beyond its traditional urban
boundaries. Industry observers believe the phenomenon is less about branding
and more a structural reaction to the pressures of a saturated urban core,
rising property prices, and limited land availability within Mumbai city.

As the challenges of making affordable homes intensify, both
homebuyers and investors are beginning to shift their focus. Emerging corridors
where infrastructure, accessibility, and future growth potential are converging
have particular interest. Stretching across emerging corridors such as Panvel,
Karjat, Khalapur, Pen, and Alibaug, Mumbai 3.0 is being shaped by the
government vision and a powerful combination of infrastructure investment,
affordability, and changing buyer aspirations.

Bhavesh Shah, Joint Managing Director, Today Group, observes that Mumbai 3.0 denotes the structural shift in
how the MMR will evolve over the next decade. “Mumbai 3.0 is set to be MMR’s
biggest urban transformation in decades. If South Mumbai was the original
economic nucleus and Navi Mumbai the first planned expansion, this next phase
is creating an entirely new metropolitan framework driven by infrastructure,
connectivity, and large-scale urban planning,” he says.

For Bhavesh Shah, what makes this cycle different is that
multiple growth corridors are evolving simultaneously, supported by projects
such as the Navi Mumbai International Airport, Atal Setu, metro expansion, and
multimodal transport networks. “Infrastructure is no longer merely supporting
growth — it is actively determining where growth will happen,” he adds.

According to Vishal Ratanghayra, Founder &amp; CEO,
Platinum Corp., the concept of Mumbai 3.0 is fundamentally linked to
infrastructure-led urban growth. “Historically, Mumbai’s expansion has always
followed connectivity and infrastructure development. Today, a similar
transition is taking shape across emerging peripheral corridors where
accessibility, economic activity, and planned development are steadily
converging. Affordability has remained among the strongest demand drivers
across Mumbai 3.0. This is particularly seen among younger homebuyers who are
increasingly gravitating towards plotted developments and organised land
communities. They are placing greater emphasis on creating long-term asset
appreciation and future-ready communities instead of viewing ownership purely
through the lens of standalone built-up assets,” he says.

Ratanghayra further points out that the emergence of
organised plotted communities, integrated townships, and branded land
developments will play a defining role in shaping a more decentralised and
planned model of growth across the MMR region. “This is still an evolving
landscape, but trust is no longer optional in plotted developments. It has
effectively become part of the product itself. While many may be selling land,
the real differentiation lies in offering clear title, legal confidence, and a
thoughtfully designed product capable of delivering superior long-term value.”

Industry experts point out that rising property prices in
core Mumbai and parts of Navi Mumbai have pushed both investors and end-users
to explore emerging micro-markets that still offer long-term value potential.
What differentiates Mumbai 3.0 from earlier expansion cycles, however, is the
scale of infrastructure currently underway.

Mega projects such as the Navi Mumbai International Airport,
the Mumbai Trans Harbour Link (MTHL), the Virar–Alibaug Corridor, Panvel–Karjat
railway expansion, and enhanced connectivity around JNPT are significantly
altering travel patterns and perceived distances across the MMR. These
developments are not only improving connectivity but also reshaping residential
and investment demand.

Porush Jhunjhunwala, CEO of Banke International Properties, sees this infrastructure convergence as fundamentally
changing how buyers evaluate real estate opportunities. “We have buyers who are
far more comfortable travelling longer distances, provided connectivity is
efficient and commute times remain predictable. This evolving mindset is
opening up entirely new growth corridors across the MMR region. The
government’s concept only furthers this,” he explains.

At the same time, buyer preferences themselves are
undergoing a notable transformation. Increasingly, plotted developments are
gaining traction over traditional apartment ownership, particularly among
younger investors, NRIs, and second-home buyers.

In Bhavesh Shah’s view, this evolution in buyer mindset is
one of the defining characteristics of Mumbai 3.0. “We see that the buyers
today are far more strategic. This is true for end-users prioritising quality
of life and integrated communities, and investors focusing on long-term wealth
creation rather than short-term appreciation. The appeal of Mumbai 3.0 lies in
the ability to participate early in an infrastructure-led growth story where
affordability, accessibility, and future potential are converging. Standing
apart from mature markets where pricing has already stabilised, these emerging
corridors continue to offer scale, planned development and strong long-term
upside, making them increasingly attractive for both residential and investment
demand.”

Unlike apartments, plotted developments offer flexibility
and phased decision-making. Buyers can purchase land today and choose when and
how they wish to build in the future. Industry observers note that this
flexibility is becoming increasingly attractive in an environment marked by
rising construction costs, evolving work patterns, and growing demand for
low-density living.

The plotted development segment is also registering a shift
towards the emergence of organised and lifestyle-oriented communities.
Developers are increasingly integrating landscaped greens, wellness spaces,
clubhouses, sports amenities, co-working infrastructure, and low-density
planning principles into projects that were once viewed purely as land parcels.
This evolution is seen as a broader change in consumer expectations where
buyers are no longer just purchasing land but are investing in future-ready
ecosystems designed around lifestyle, wellness, and community living.

Interestingly, the growing interest in plotted developments
is also being supported by greater regulatory transparency and digitisation
within the sector. Developers are placing stronger demand on clear land titles,
structured documentation, and compliance frameworks. This is particularly the
case where first-time buyers with far higher awareness levels than before are entering
the market.

According to market observers, the appreciation cycle for
plotted developments is also different from conventional apartment markets.
While apartment values tend to rise gradually, land investments often witness
sharper value appreciation once infrastructure projects become operational and
surrounding ecosystems mature.

This has encouraged a more patient and strategic class of
investors to enter the market. NRIs increasingly view land as a stable
long-term asset linked to India’s growth story, while younger buyers are
approaching plotted developments as future-oriented investments offering
significant upside potential over a five-to-ten-year horizon.

According to Parthh K Mehta, CMD, Paradigm Realty, “the impacts of Mumbai 3.0 are being felt across asset
classes. For luxury buyers, it presents the incredible opportunity to invest in
plotted developments, which are emerging as a significant asset class.”

He further says that, “this shift is supported by
transformative infrastructure projects such as the 21.8-km Atal Setu, the Navi
Mumbai International Airport, and new expressway corridors, which are expected
to drastically improve regional connectivity. In emerging micro-markets such as
Panvel, Karjat, and Khalapur, plotted developments are increasingly attracting
both end-users and investors looking for long-term appreciation and land
ownership opportunities.

Today, luxury consumers are prioritising space, wellness,
and low-density living over conventional apartment-led formats. In Mumbai 3.0
corridors, plotted land developments are priced between ₹3,000 and ₹15,000 per
sq. ft, depending on infrastructure proximity, which remains significantly
lower than Mumbai’s traditional luxury markets where prices can exceed
₹50,000–₹1 lakh per sq. ft. The current market estimate suggests that
well-connected nodes around airports and infrastructure corridors could witness
an annual appreciation of nearly 15-25 per cent over the next few years.

We believe this shift reflects a deeper evolution in luxury
housing, where buyers are increasingly valuing flexibility, custom-built homes,
and integrated plotted communities that combine lifestyle, connectivity, and
long-term asset creation.”

Porush Jhunjhunwala believes that Mumbai 3.0 will eventually
evolve not as a single, standalone destination, but as a network of
interconnected micro-markets functioning as natural extensions of Mumbai’s
economic ecosystem. As connectivity improves and decentralised urban
development gathers pace, these emerging regions are expected to play a
defining role in shaping the future of planned living across the MMR.

Experts believe the future success of Mumbai 3.0 will depend
less on physical distance from Mumbai’s traditional business districts and more
on the predictability and efficiency of connectivity. As infrastructure
networks mature, emerging growth corridors are expected to evolve into
interconnected urban clusters offering residential, commercial, and social
ecosystems within shorter and more manageable commute patterns.

What is becoming increasingly clear is that Mumbai’s next
phase of expansion may no longer revolve around vertical growth within the city
core alone. Finally, as the Mumbai 3.0 plans gather pace, plotted developments
are emerging as the defining expression of the city’s outward expansion, where
infrastructure, affordability, and aspirational living are converging across
the wider MMR.

<description><![CDATA[ Ambit
highlights that Venus Pipes Rev/EBITDA grew 17%/19% YoY, in line with their
estimates. Recovery in domestic business (47% YoY) drove growth in Q4 FY26;
exports declined 22% YoY as geopolitical issues cropped up. Management
highlighted that remaining capacity additions are now done and made
operational, including fittings. Management announced foray into Spooling
Solutions with Rs 700 mn capex, backed by an LOI worth Rs 1.9 bn from a leading
customer in Data Center segment. Company’s orderbook (ex-LOI) now stands at Rs
4.5 bn (2.5x YoY). Also, with entry into new-age sectors and fittings capacity
becoming operational, management has strong performance visibility for the next
few quarters. Company acquired additional 15 acres of land for future expansion.
Ambit marginally trims their FY28 EBITDAM/PAT estimates by 40bps/3% due to
increased investments in the business. Ambit builds 23%/30% rev/PAT CAGR over
FY26-29E; better-than-expected execution in new products can drive upgrades. Ambit’s
24 Month Target Price TP of Rs 2,336 implies 27x FY28 EPS.

Key
takeaways from the earnings call 

Domestic
business continued to be primary growth driver: 

Management
highlighted that the domestic market continued to drive growth despite global
uncertainties. FY26 volumes grew 15%, led by +15% growth in seamless pipes and
10% growth in welded pipes. Q4 FY26 volume grew by 2%. Blended realizations for
FY26 were Rs65/kg. Demand remained healthy across key end-markets, including
power, oil &amp; gas, and chemicals. 

Export
business impacted amid global uncertainty: 

Export
revenue contribution remained above 30% despite temporary weakness in the ME
due to ongoing conflicts. Europe continued to be a strong volume driver, while
demand from the US remained healthy. Management remains confident of sustaining
30- 40% export mix, supported by recently secured product approvals from
leading global O&amp;G companies across the US and Middle East. 

Foray
in data centre business: 

Management
announced its entry into spooling solutions business, backed by Rs 1.85 bn LOI
from a data centre client, executable over the next 15 months. Planned capex is
at Rs 700 mn in a dedicated spooling and fabrication facility, with trial runs
expected in 2QFY27 and commercial production commencing by mid-3QFY27. Management
highlighted that this forward integration offers superior value addition and
margin potential compared with standalone piping. 

Order
book remains healthy: 

The
year-end orderbook stood at Rs 4.5 bn, with exports accounting for 30-40%.
Apart from the regular order book, management has secured Rs 1.85 bn LOI for
spooling solutions from a leading data centre client. 

Capacity
expansion update: 

Management
highlighted that it has fully backward integrated for its 20,400 MTPA seamless
pipe capacity through in-house mother hollow pipe manufacturing, ensuring raw
material security and operational efficiency. It has also commissioned
facilities to manufacture longer welded pipes. FY26 capacity utilization
exceeded 95% for seamless pipes and stood at 60-65% for welded pipes.
Additionally, the company has acquired 15 acres of land adjacent to its
existing facility to support future expansion.

FY27
outlook remains robust

Management
guided for volume growth of over 20% in FY27, with margins expected to improve towards
17% in FY27 and further expand to 18% by FY28. Working capital days are
expected to remain stable at 120-130 days, while FY27 capex is projected at Rs
0.9-1.0 bn. Beyond data centers and semiconductors, management also identified
the PNG (Piped Natural Gas) segment as a potential new growth avenue.

Where
do we go from here? 

Venus
Pipes &amp; Tubes has increased its capacity by 3.7x over FY23-26 to 43,800
MTPA. A quick ramp-up of new facilities has enabled the company to post
significant volume growth across categories, which is expected to continue;
condenser capacity commissioned recently is operating at 30% utilisation
levels. While export growth momentum slowed in FY26, given the drop in US
contribution and ME conflict, domestic business recovery through industries
like power, O&amp;G, and food processing businesses offset the same. With an
orderbook of Rs 4.5 bn (30-40% exports), management expects momentum to
continue across geographies, including recovery in the US business. Further,
company has now entered into new-age categories (margin accretive) like data
centers, solar manufacturing, and semiconductors; received LoI of Rs 1.85 bn
from a leading customer in data center segment. 

With
previously announced capex now done, company has announced a capex of Rs 700 mn
towards its spooling facility. Further, the company has also acquired 15 acres
of additional land for future expansion. Management is confident about gaining
market share on the back of its upcoming product launches and delivering +20%
growth with 16-18% margin profile. 

Ambit
believes Venus is in the early part of the decadal growth opportunities, and
there is a long runway for market-share improvement. However, high operating
costs have hurt margins, partly because it is building its team and incurring
upfront manufacturing costs to be market-ready for its upcoming products. With
new investments announced, operational costs are expected to increase in near
term. Ambit trims their FY28 EBITDAM/PAT estimates by 40bps/3%. Ambit unchanged
TP of Rs 2,336 implies 27x FY28 EPS. ]]></description>

<title>South India’s Emerging Construction Company Success Story – BSS Saravanan Golden Keys Construction</title>
<link>https://en.newsbolt.in/south-indias-emerging-construction-company-success-story-bss-saravanan-golden-keys-construction</link>
<guid>https://en.newsbolt.in/south-indias-emerging-construction-company-success-story-bss-saravanan-golden-keys-construction</guid>
<description><![CDATA[ BSS
Saravanan, Golden Key construction

Chennai, 3rd June 2026: In the world of construction, buildings may define skylines, but
trust defines legacies. For B.S.S. Saravanan, Founder of Golden Keys
Construction, the journey was never about merely constructing houses. It was
about helping families transform years of aspirations, hard-earned savings, and
lifelong dreams into homes they could proudly call their own.

What began as a vision to bring greater
professionalism, transparency, and accountability to residential construction
has today evolved into Golden Keys Construction, a trusted name that has earned
the confidence of homeowners across South India. The company&#039;s growth has not
been driven by advertising alone, but by something far more valuable that is
customer trust, referrals, and long-term relationships.

From the very beginning, Saravanan
understood a simple truth about the construction industry. For most families,
building a home is one of the most significant financial and emotional
investments of their lives. Every decision matters. Every commitment matters.
Every timeline matters. This understanding became the foundation upon which
Golden Keys Construction was built.

&quot;Our responsibility goes beyond
construction,&quot; says Saravanan. &quot;When customers entrust us with their
dream project, they are placing years of planning, savings, and expectations in
our hands. We treat every project with the same commitment and care we would
expect for our own family.” This customer-first philosophy continues to guide
every aspect of the business.

Over the years, Golden Keys Construction
has successfully delivered numerous residential projects while steadily
expanding its footprint across Chennai, Hyderabad, and Pune. Through every
stage of growth, the company has remained committed to the principles that
established its reputation: transparency, ethical business practices, quality
workmanship, and timely project delivery. The company&#039;s strength lies not only
in what it builds, but also in how it builds.

At a time when many businesses are moving
toward fully automated customer interactions, Golden Keys Construction
continues to believe in the value of human relationships. Customers have direct
access to experienced professionals who understand their requirements, answer
their questions, and guide them through every phase of the construction
journey. This personal approach has become one of the company&#039;s defining
strengths, helping build confidence and trust long before construction begins.

With more than fifteen years of experience
in the construction sector, Saravanan has witnessed the changing expectations
of modern homeowners. Today&#039;s customers seek more than attractive architecture.
They expect transparency, functionality, efficient project management, superior
quality, and long-term value.

Recognizing these evolving needs, Golden
Keys Construction has consistently embraced innovation. The company
incorporates modern construction methodologies, advanced planning systems,
technology-driven project monitoring, and streamlined execution processes to
ensure better quality, greater efficiency, and enhanced customer experiences.

This balance between technological
advancement and personalized service has helped the company differentiate
itself in a highly competitive market.

As the organization continues to grow, it
is also broadening its vision. While Golden Keys Construction has established a
strong reputation in residential construction through its comprehensive
key-to-key solutions, the company is preparing for the next phase of expansion
by exploring larger and more diverse construction opportunities while
maintaining the same commitment to quality and customer satisfaction that has
defined its journey so far.

Saravanan believes that the future of
construction will be shaped by responsible development. Sustainable building
practices, efficient resource utilization, smarter design approaches, and
future-ready infrastructure are becoming increasingly important in creating
spaces that remain relevant for generations.

&quot;The construction industry is evolving
rapidly,&quot; he says. &quot;Our goal is not simply to build structures. We
want to create spaces that improve lives, deliver long-term value, and stand as
symbols of trust and quality.&quot;

Today, Golden Keys Construction stands as a
reflection of that vision. Every completed project, every satisfied customer,
and every referral reinforces the foundation upon which the company has grown.

In an industry where buildings can be
replicated, trust cannot. That belief continues to drive Golden Keys
Construction forward as it strengthens its position as one of South India&#039;s
most trusted and emerging construction brands building not just homes, but lasting
relationships and enduring confidence with every project it undertakes.

<title>sam: Engineering the Future of Home Care in India</title>
<link>https://en.newsbolt.in/sam-engineering-the-future-of-home-care-in-india</link>
<guid>https://en.newsbolt.in/sam-engineering-the-future-of-home-care-in-india</guid>
<description><![CDATA[ In a category long
defined by fragmentation and inconsistency, sam. (Service At MyPlace) is
redefining how urban India manages home care. Moving beyond single-service
offerings, the company brings a structured, science-led approach to a complete
bouquet of household services, positioning itself as a comprehensive home
care solutions provider. 

With increasing
urbanization and time constraints, homeowners today juggle multiple vendors for
cleaning, maintenance, and upkeep—often facing inconsistent quality and lack of
accountability. sam. addresses this gap by introducing an integrated model
where services are not reactive, but system-driven, predictable, and
professionally managed.

AN
INTEGRATED HOME CARE ECOSYSTEM

sam.’s offering spans a
wide range of household needs, including deep cleaning, pest control, solar
panel maintenance, water tank hygiene, and repairs &amp; maintenance as home
care solutions. Unlike traditional providers, each service is designed to
function as part of a larger ecosystem—ensuring that homes are maintained
holistically rather than in isolated silos. At the core of sam.’s operations,
is a standardized delivery framework that emphasizes:

●       
Trained specialists over unverified
freelancers

●       
SOP-driven execution instead of inconsistent
practices

●       
Measurable outcomes rather than one-time fixes

The result is a level
of reliability that turns everyday services into a premium experience.

●       
99.9% microbial reduction

●       
Up to 30% higher solar efficiency

●       
2X longer asset life

●       
1000+ SOP-driven service cycles

BRINGING
SCIENTIFIC DISCIPLINE TO HOME SERVICES

sam. treats home care
as a technical discipline rather than a routine activity. 

●     
Understanding surface chemistry and
contamination types 

●     
Applying appropriate, non-damaging agents


●     
Minimizing microbial presence through
controlled processes 

●     
Optimizing resource use such as water and
energy 

FOUNDER’S
VISION: PERFORMANCE OVER PERCEPTION

Commenting on the
company’s approach, Sameer Rupani, Founder of sam., says:

“Home services in India
have traditionally been judged by visual outcomes rather than performance
metrics. At sam., we have engineered a complete ecosystem of services that
deliver measurable results—whether in hygiene, efficiency, or asset longevity. Our
goal is to bring structure, predictability, and scientific rigor into this
space”

TAPPING
INTO A GROWING MARKET SHIFT

India’s home services
market is witnessing a shift as consumers increasingly seek reliability,
professionalism, and outcome-driven solutions. As expectations evolve, the
demand is moving from standalone services to managed home care experiences.

sam.’s model aligns
with this transition, offering a scalable and standardized approach that caters
to modern urban households seeking convenience without compromising on quality.

SETTING
THE FUTURE OF HOME CARE

By combining multiple
services into a single, integrated platform and backing them with
process-driven execution, sam. is positioning itself at the forefront of the
next phase of growth in the home services industry.

As the sector moves
toward greater formalization, companies that can deliver consistency,
accountability, and measurable impact are expected to define the future—and
sam. is building precisely that foundation.

THE
FUTURE OF HOME CARE IS MANAGED

As cities evolve,
expectations are changing. Home care is no longer about “getting things done.”
It’s about getting things done right, every time. sam. stands at this
shift—bringing structure, discipline, and quality into an industry that has
long been unorganized.

<description><![CDATA[ Mumbai, India (3 June, 2026) : e-Transport Mission Mode Project (e Transport MMP), led by the
Ministry of Road Transport and Highways (MoRTH) and implemented by the National
Informatics Centre (NIC), has transformed transport administration in India by
automating RTO operations nationwide. The initiative has enabled a consolidated
national transport database with real-time access to vehicle and transport
information, while powering the launch of a host of citizen-centric and
trade-centric applications, contributing greatly towards the country’s
e-Governance initiative under the Digital India Programme.

SAS, a global leader in data &amp; AI, is
set to enhance India’s Vehicle Administration and Handling Application Network
(VAHAN), by helping enhance the platform’s efficiency, reliability and service
delivery through advanced analytics and AI.

anomaly detection, data management, harmonization and quality across VAHAN’s
large and diverse datasets. By enabling a unified view of vehicle and transport
related data, the initiative aims to support faster decision-making, improve
regulatory oversight and ultimately enhance the citizen experience on the
portal.

As part of the engagement, SAS will help
enable the identification and prioritization of high impact issues through
Vehicle Registration &amp; Lifecycle Analytics and Enforcement Analytics. With
data-driven insights, the solution seeks to help transport authorities better
understand trends, proactively identify risks, and design more responsive and
transparent services for citizens.

Noshin Kagalwalla, Vice President –
Public Sector, APAC &amp; Managing Director, SAS India, said, “Key platforms
like VAHAN play a vital role in enabling efficient, transparent and
citizen-centric services. By helping unify and analyze data across multiple
touchpoints, this partnership can support better planning and stronger
governance with trusted actionable insights.”

SAS with Vahan for MoRTH/NIC aims to build
a scalable analytics foundation that supports the evolving needs of transport
administration, while enabling evidence-based policymaking and improved service
outcomes at a national level.

global economy today houses a highly competitive labour market. Over 52% of
professionals globally are seeking new roles, yet nearly 80% feel unprepared to
navigate the job market due to skills gaps and uncertainty about standing out.
The same 2026 LinkedIn Research report states that professionals are changing
roles and industries more frequently than ever, reflecting a move towards more
fluid, non-linear careers. In this context, the idea of a fixed “career path”
is quietly disappearing. As AI and automation continue to reshape work, the
shelf life of specialised expertise is shrinking. What endures is something
more fundamental: the ability to think strategically, make sound decisions
under uncertainty, and lead across contexts. Career progression is no longer
defined by where you start, but by how well you adapt.

This
shift is changing what it takes to succeed. As professionals move into more
senior roles, success depends less on technical depth and more on
enterprise-level thinking. Understanding how finance, strategy, operations, and
people intersect has become critical. The ability to connect these elements and
act decisively is what separates managers from leaders.

Why do programs such as The University of Western Australia’s
(UWA) global MBA stand out?

In
the first year, participants build a strong foundation in business and
leadership through six modules delivered by IIM Kozhikode. This phase develops
core capabilities in strategy, management, and decision-making, equipping
professionals with the clarity and confidence to move beyond functional roles
and start thinking at an enterprise level.

In
the second year, learners progress into a global context with six advanced
modules from UWA. This stage sharpens global business perspective, cross-market
decision-making, and leadership readiness, enabling professionals to operate
confidently in international environments and step into larger, more strategic
roles.

International
recognition plays a crucial role

UWA
is ranked #1 in Western Australia and 77th in the world (QS 2026), reinforcing
the program’s global standing. With 13 cohorts delivered and over 1,800
learners globally, it reflects sustained demand from professionals across
industries and regions. The UWA Business School is accredited by EQUIS and the
Association to Advance Collegiate Schools of Business (AACSB).

Keeping
managers at the forefront of innovation

The
curriculum also acknowledges the
growing role of technology in leadership. Through dedicated AI masterclasses
led by industry experts, participants explore how emerging technologies are
shaping decision-making, business models, and competitive dynamics. 

Some
of these include:

●       
AI in organisational behaviour – from feedback
loops to emotional intelligence bots

●       
Build and test MVPs using GenAI – from idea to
market in 60 minutes

●       
AI agent driven financial statement analysis

What
does the future look like for business professionals? 

As
Indian businesses expand globally and multinational firms deepen their presence
in the country, professionals are increasingly expected to operate across
markets, functions, and cultures. Career growth is no longer tied to a single
domain or industry. It depends on the ability to apply skills in varied
contexts, make strategic decisions, and adapt to evolving business
environments. 

UWA’s MBA - Global reflects this
shift. It is not about preparing for a specific role, but about building the
kind of thinking that allows professionals to move across roles, industries,
and challenges with confidence.

<title>India Makes a Quantum Leap. Fortytwo Labs&amp;apos; Indigenous Quantum&#45;Safe Algorithm Earns the First&#45;Ever C&#45;SAFE Recognition from DSCI</title>
<link>https://en.newsbolt.in/india-makes-a-quantum-leap-fortytwo-labs-indigenous-quantum-safe-algorithm-earns-the-first-ever-c-safe-recognition-from-dsci</link>
<guid>https://en.newsbolt.in/india-makes-a-quantum-leap-fortytwo-labs-indigenous-quantum-safe-algorithm-earns-the-first-ever-c-safe-recognition-from-dsci</guid>
<description><![CDATA[ Mumbai,
June, 2026 : For the first time in India&#039;s history, a
domestically built quantum-safe algorithm has been independently evaluated and
officially recognised by a national authority. The Data Security Council of
India (DSCI) has awarded C-SAFE recognition - Certificate No. DSCI-CSAFE-01 -
to Fortytwo Labs, an Indian deep-tech cybersecurity company building
quantum-safe digital trust infrastructure, for its Ci2: Ring-LWE based
quantum-safe key exchange algorithm - the cryptographic core of the π-Control platform,
in continuous production deployment since 2018.

The
recognition was announced at FINSEC 2026, the DSCI Financial Security Conclave
held in Mumbai, where Fortytwo Labs participated as Quantum-Safe Infrastructure
Partner. Vinayak Godse, CEO of DSCI, presented the recognition to Nilesh
Dhande, Co-Founder and CEO, Fortytwo Labs.

The
Gold Standard of Cryptographic Evaluation - Applied to an Indian Algorithm

C-SAFE
- Cryptographic Security Assessment and Functional Evaluation - is India&#039;s
first independent cryptographic evaluation programme, built from the ground up
under DSCI leadership. The Ci2 evaluation was conducted by an expert panel of
India&#039;s foremost cryptographers across multiple structured rounds covering
mathematical correctness, quantum resilience, and implementation security. The
evaluation encompassed 13 named statistical security tests including formal
IND-CPA security proof, lattice-attack resistance analysis, decryption failure
probability modelling, adversarial scenario testing, and post-quantum security
margin verification against NIST security category targets. Any organisation
can claim its algorithm is secure. C-SAFE recognition means someone
independent, rigorous, and nationally authoritative has verified it.

Cryptographic
Sovereignty Is the Foundation of National Digital Trust

An
algorithm is critical infrastructure not merely a technical artefact. When the
cryptographic primitives securing a nation&#039;s financial systems, government
data, and communications are designed abroad, audited abroad, and controlled
abroad, that nation&#039;s digital sovereignty is contingent on foreign goodwill.
With C-SAFE recognition now awarded to India&#039;s only indigenously developed,
deployed, and certified quantum-safe algorithm, India answers a question every
nation must eventually face: whose cryptographic foundations secure your
digital future?

Already
Securing India&#039;s Critical Infrastructure, Now Certified!

While
post-quantum cryptography remains a future roadmap item for most organisations
globally, Fortytwo Labs has been operating at production scale already. The
π-Control platform addresses the full spectrum of active threats facing India&#039;s
critical sectors today: credential and identity attacks targeting banking
workforces and customers, API-layer attacks, mobile application
vulnerabilities, and the harvest-now-decrypt-later strategy through which
adversaries are capturing encrypted financial records, KYC data, and
communications today to decrypt once quantum computing matures.

What
C-SAFE Recognition Means for Banking and Financial Services

India&#039;s
banking sector faces simultaneous pressure from evolving RBI authentication
mandates, rapid open banking API expansion, and long-term cryptographic
vulnerability posed by quantum computing. C-SAFE recognition gives CISOs, CTOs,
and boards independently validated, nationally authoritative evidence that
their cryptographic foundation meets today&#039;s regulatory expectations and is
certified resilient against the quantum threats.

For
Indian Defence

Classified
communications and sovereign data transfer cannot carry foreign cryptographic
dependencies not in procurement, operations, or audit. Fortytwo Labs&#039;
Quantum-Safe Secured Data Transfer Appliance and Secured Communications
platform are built on the only algorithm in India to hold C-SAFE recognition,
protected by multiple granted patents in India and the United States, with zero
foreign IP in the cryptographic trust layer. The company has previously
received the SIDM Defence Champion Award 2023 and the BRIG SB Ghorpade Award
for MSMEs in Defence Production 2026.

Quotes

“Cryptographic
sovereignty is not a preference. It is a strategic imperative and for India, it
is long overdue. India&#039;s critical infrastructure cannot be secured on
algorithms we did not build, standards we did not set, and trust frameworks
that answer to foreign authorities. An Atmanirbhar India cannot outsource its
cryptographic foundation. That conviction drove us to build the quantum-safe
algorithm from first principles Indian ingenuity, Indian cryptographers, Indian
authority. Today, DSCI&#039;s C-SAFE programme recognised it and made that
conviction official. Cryptographic sovereignty India doesn&#039;t need to adopt a
standard. We built one.”

-
Nilesh Dhande, Co-Founder and CEO, Fortytwo Labs

“With
the rapid evolution of quantum technologies, it is important to establish
credible alternative mechanisms for evaluating emerging cryptographic
algorithms, being built in India. C-SAFE was created to provide a structured,
expert and researcher led assessment framework at the national level that helps
independently validate the mathematical design, security considerations of such
innovations.\

The
successful completion of the C-SAFE evaluation by Fortytwo Labs’ Ci2 algorithm
marks an important milestone for the programme and demonstrates the growing
maturity of post-quantum cryptographic research and development in India.
Fortytwo Labs&#039; Ci2 is the first algorithm to earn that recognition.”

 - Vinayak Godse, CEO, Data Security Council
of India (DSCI)

About
C-SAFE and DSCI

The
Data Security Council of India (DSCI) is India&#039;s premier industry body for data
protection and cybersecurity, established by NASSCOM. Under the leadership of
Vinayak Godse, DSCI established C-SAFE: Cryptographic Security Assessment and
Functional Evaluation India&#039;s first independent cryptographic evaluation
programme. C-SAFE conducts formal threat modelling, rigorous mathematical
scrutiny, and quantum resilience verification across multiple evaluation
stages. A C-SAFE recognition tells user organisations and their auditors that
an algorithm has been cleared for production use by the country&#039;s most credible
cryptographers not by its creator. Certificate DSCI-CSAFE-01 is the first ever
issued under the programme.

<title>The Rise of AI&#45;Powered Full&#45;Stack Marketing in 2026: How Paradigm Media Networks Is Redefining Revenue Growth for Businesses in India, US, UK, and UAE</title>
<link>https://en.newsbolt.in/the-rise-of-ai-powered-full-stack-marketing-in-2026-how-paradigm-media-networks-is-redefining-revenue-growth-for-businesses-in-india-us-uk-and-uae</link>
<guid>https://en.newsbolt.in/the-rise-of-ai-powered-full-stack-marketing-in-2026-how-paradigm-media-networks-is-redefining-revenue-growth-for-businesses-in-india-us-uk-and-uae</guid>
<description><![CDATA[ Most marketing agencies in 2026 are still
solving 2019 problems.

They build campaigns around reach,
impressions, and follower counts metrics that look impressive in monthly
reports but show nothing on a revenue statement. Meanwhile, the businesses
paying for these campaigns are quietly bleeding the budget with no clear line
between what they&#039;re spending and what they&#039;re earning.

This is the operational gap that Jahid
Hussain, founder of Paradigm Media Networks, identified
years before it became an industry conversation.

&quot;Revenue is the only metric that doesn&#039;t
lie,&quot; Jahid has said in speaking about his agency&#039;s founding philosophy.
That single principle deceptively simple, rarely executed is what separates
Paradigm Media Networks from the vast majority of digital marketing agencies
operating across India, the US, the UK, and the UAE today.

Why Full-Stack Marketing Has Become
Non-Negotiable in 2026

For years, businesses hired specialists. An
SEO agency here. A Meta Ads freelancer there. A separate team for content. A
web developer on call.

The result was predictable: fragmented
strategy, zero accountability, and campaigns that technically performed in
isolation but failed to produce coherent revenue outcomes. Each vendor
optimized their own slice. Nobody owned the full picture.

The shift toward full-stack digital marketing where a single agency commands the entire growth
engine didn&#039;t happen because it was philosophically attractive. It happened
because businesses ran out of patience for the alternative.

In practice, a full-stack agency controls
every revenue touchpoint: organic search, paid performance, content production,
social distribution, website conversion, and brand positioning. When one
element underperforms, the same team can diagnose and repair it without a
three-week coordination chain across vendors.

Paradigm Media Networks was built from the
ground up on this integrated model. Operating across India, the US, the UK,
and the UAE, the agency brings together SEO, Meta Ads, Google Ads, content
creation, social media management, video scripting, video editing, website
development, copywriting, and digital transformation under a single
revenue-accountable strategy.

What most people miss is that integration
alone isn&#039;t the differentiator. Plenty of agencies now claim full-stack
capabilities. The real differentiator is what sits underneath the AI
infrastructure that makes every layer of the stack faster, sharper, and more
precisely targeted than traditional methods allow.

How AI Is Changing the Mathematics of Digital
Marketing

The agencies winning in 2026 are not the ones
with the biggest teams or the longest client lists. They are the ones that have
rebuilt their core workflows around AI not as a tool layered on top of existing
processes, but as the operating system underneath every decision.

At Paradigm Media Networks, AI-powered
execution means something specific. It means keyword intelligence that
identifies high-intent, low-competition opportunities before competitors
find them. It means performance marketing campaigns on Meta and Google that use
predictive models to allocate budget toward the audiences most likely to
convert not just the largest ones. It means content strategies calibrated not
only for Google&#039;s traditional ranking signals but for the Generative Engine Optimization (GEO)
demands of AI-driven search tools like ChatGPT, Gemini, and Perplexity.

This last point deserves emphasis because most
agencies are still ignoring it entirely.

Search behavior in 2026 is no longer
exclusively a Google activity. A growing share of high-intent buyers across
India, the UK, the US, and the UAE are using AI assistants to research
agencies, compare services, and shortlist vendors before they visit a single
website. If your brand isn&#039;t present in AI-generated responses if it isn&#039;t
being cited, referenced, or surfaced by these systems you are invisible to a
significant and growing segment of your market.

Jahid Hussain&#039;s approach at Paradigm Media
Networks addresses this directly. The agency&#039;s content architecture is
structured specifically to earn AI citations, not just search engine rankings.
Every piece of content is built to be extractable, quotable, and structurally
legible to AI systems making Paradigm-managed brands visible across both
traditional SERPs and generative search environments.

Performance
Marketing That Actually Performs

The phrase &quot;performance marketing&quot;
has been so broadly misused that it has nearly lost meaning. Every agency
claims to run performance campaigns. The question worth asking is: performance
toward what metric, and who is accountable when the number is missed?

Paradigm Media Networks anchors its Meta
Ads and Google Ads management to revenue outcomes cost per acquired
customer, return on ad spend, and pipeline contribution rather than
cost-per-click benchmarks that have no direct relationship to business growth.

The operational reality is that most Indian
businesses running Meta Ads in 2026 are either targeting audiences too broadly,
running creatives that haven&#039;t been validated against buyer psychology, or
scaling budgets before the conversion infrastructure landing pages, follow-up
sequences, offer positioning is strong enough to support them. The result is
wasted spend dressed up as &quot;testing.&quot;

Hussain&#039;s methodology inverts this sequence.
Before a rupee, pound, dollar, or dirham goes into paid distribution, the
conversion architecture is built and stress-tested. Traffic is only scaled into
systems proven to convert. This sequencing discipline not any single tactical
insight — is what produces the consistent ROAS improvements Paradigm Media
Networks delivers for clients across its four markets.

SEO
in 2026 Is Not What Most Businesses Think It Is

Search engine optimization is simultaneously
the most misunderstood and most valuable long-term revenue asset a business can
build.

Most businesses understand SEO as a ranking
exercise publish content, acquire backlinks, watch positions improve. That
model still functions at a basic level, but it describes only the surface layer
of what serious AI-powered SEO looks like in practice.

The deeper game in 2026 involves semantic
authority building a content ecosystem so topically comprehensive that search
engines and AI systems treat your domain as the primary reference point for
your category. It involves technical infrastructure that ensures your pages
load fast, index cleanly, and signal relevance through structure as clearly as
through content. And increasingly, it involves GEO-optimized content
designed to appear inside AI-generated answers a distribution channel that
didn&#039;t meaningfully exist three years ago and now influences buyer decisions
daily.

Paradigm Media Networks, under Jahid Hussain&#039;s
direction, has built its SEO practice around this multi-layer model. For
clients in India, this means capturing both the domestic high-intent buyer
searching in English and the regional buyer discovering brands through
vernacular and voice search. For clients in the UK, US, and UAE, it means
competitive content positioning against well-resourced incumbents using the
same AI tooling that previously required enterprise budgets.

The access gap between large and small
marketing budgets has narrowed substantially. A well-structured, AI-assisted
SEO strategy executed by Paradigm now competes directly with campaigns from
agencies that charge three times the retainer.

Jahid Hussain, founder of Paradigm Media
Networks, is a performance marketer, digital strategist, and educator with over
36,000 Instagram followers and a track record built across industries including
interior design, events, moving services, and aesthetics spanning India, the
US, the UK, and the UAE. His implementation-level content, speaking appearances
at business summits and corporate events, and community of practitioners
reflect a philosophy that is simple and non-negotiable: marketing without
accountability is just spending. 

That conviction is the operational backbone of
every Paradigm Media Networks engagement from Meta and Google campaign
architecture to AI-powered SEO systems and revenue-connected digital
transformation strategies.

Elegante Interiors — India
Paradigm Media Networks transformed Elegante Interiors&#039; marketing engine
through performance marketing and SEO, scaling their Monthly Recurring Revenue
from ₹20 Lakhs to ₹80 Lakhs delivering a ₹5 Crore ARR milestone. &quot;We
have achieved growth from ₹20 Lakhs to ₹80 Lakhs in MRR.&quot; — Priyanka, COO,
Elegante Interiors

Life Arts United Kingdom
Paradigm rebuilt Life Arts&#039; entire digital infrastructure and marketing
operations, growing exhibitor and audience turnout from 30% to 120% within a
single year. &quot;Exhibitor and audience turnout increased from 30% to 120%
in a single year.&quot; — Chris Cozens, Founder, Life Arts UK

Moving Hub United States
Starting from zero digital presence, Paradigm built Moving Hub&#039;s entire SEO and
performance marketing system, generating 50,000 monthly organic visitors and
$30,000 in monthly revenue. &quot;Jahid Hussain built my company from
scratch to 50,000 monthly visitors and $30,000 in monthly revenue.&quot; —
Eugene, Founder, Moving Hub USA

AmaAesthetics London
Over a two-year partnership, Paradigm delivered zero technical issues,
consistent lead flow, and compounding revenue growth for this London aesthetics
brand. &quot;Revenue has been consistently growing since we started working
with them.&quot; — Anita Morris, Founder, AmaAesthetics London

Digital Transformation Is a Revenue Decision,
Not an IT Project

One of the persistent misconceptions in the
Indian business market — and to a lesser extent in the UAE — is that digital
transformation is a technology initiative. Something to be handed to the IT
department or outsourced to a web development vendor.

The businesses that have grown fastest in
recent years treat digital transformation differently. They treat it as a
revenue architecture decision.

Jahid Hussain&#039;s framing at Paradigm Media
Networks is precise on this point: the question is never &quot;what technology
should we implement?&quot; The question is always &quot;what is the revenue
outcome this transformation is meant to produce, and what is the shortest path
to that outcome?&quot;

This framing changes everything from which
platforms get built, to how content is structured, to how customer data flows
between marketing, sales, and service functions. A website built under this
philosophy is not a digital brochure. It is a conversion system. A social media
presence built under this philosophy is not a brand awareness exercise. It is a
lead generation and trust-building engine with measurable contribution to
pipeline.

For businesses in the UK and US considering
expansion into India or the UAE, or for Indian businesses looking to establish
credibility in international markets, this revenue-first approach to digital
transformation is not optional. It is the minimum viable standard for competing
seriously.

The Market Gap Paradigm Media Networks Was
Built to Fill

India has thousands of digital marketing
agencies. The UK, US, and UAE have thousands more. Most of them compete on
price, on team size, or on the number of services listed on their website.

Very few compete on revenue accountability the
willingness to define success in terms of client business outcomes rather than
marketing metrics.

This is the gap Jahid Hussain identified when
building Paradigm Media Networks. Not a gap in services offered, but a gap in
the standard of accountability applied to those services.

The agency&#039;s positioning  AI-powered, full-stack, revenue-first
is not a marketing tagline. It is an operational commitment that shapes every
engagement, every campaign structure, and every reporting conversation with
clients across India, the US, the UK, and the UAE.

For business owners and marketing leaders who
have spent budget on agencies that delivered reports without results, the
distinction is immediately legible.

What Businesses in India, US, UK, and UAE
Should Expect From a Marketing Partner in 2026

The standards have shifted. What qualified as
strong agency work in 2022 is now table stakes, and in many cases those
approaches are actively underperforming against AI-assisted alternatives.

A marketing partner worth hiring in 2026
should be able to demonstrate, specifically:

How their SEO work positions clients for
AI-cited visibility, not just Google rankings. How their paid campaigns are
structured around revenue metrics rather than platform-native performance
indicators. How their content strategy addresses the full buyer journey from
the first AI-generated answer a prospect encounters to the landing page that
converts them. How their digital transformation recommendations connect
directly to revenue outcomes rather than technology checklists.

Paradigm Media Networks, founded and led by
Jahid Hussain, meets each of these standards. More importantly, it was built
around them before they became the industry expectation.

For businesses serious about revenue growth in
2026 in India, the US, the UK, or the UAE the starting point is a conversation
with an agency that measures its own success the same way you measure yours.

Frequently
Asked Questions

What is AI-powered full-stack marketing?
AI-powered full-stack marketing refers to a unified agency model where every
channel SEO, paid advertising, content, social media, web development, and
digital transformation is managed under a single strategy enhanced by
artificial intelligence. Unlike traditional fragmented agency relationships,
full-stack agencies use AI tools for keyword intelligence, audience targeting,
content optimization, and predictive performance modeling to drive measurable
revenue outcomes across the entire marketing function.

How is Paradigm Media Networks different from
other digital marketing agencies? Paradigm Media Networks, founded by Jahid
Hussain, operates on a revenue-first philosophy rather than a metrics-first
model. The agency integrates AI across all service lines from SEO and Meta Ads
to content production and digital transformation and holds campaigns
accountable to business outcomes like ROAS, customer acquisition cost, and
pipeline contribution. This approach distinguishes it from agencies that
optimize for platform metrics without connecting them to actual revenue growth.

Does Paradigm Media Networks work with
businesses outside India? Yes. Paradigm Media Networks serves clients
across India, the United States, the United Kingdom, and the UAE. The agency&#039;s
AI-powered methodology is designed to operate competitively across these
markets, adapting campaign structure, content strategy, and performance
benchmarks to the specific competitive landscape of each region.

What is GEO optimization and why does it
matter in 2026? Generative
Engine Optimization (GEO) is the practice of structuring content
to appear inside AI-generated responses from tools like ChatGPT, Gemini,
Perplexity, and Google AI Overviews. As a growing share of buyers use AI
assistants to research services before visiting websites, brands that are cited
in these responses gain significant visibility advantages. Paradigm Media
Networks builds GEO optimization into its content architecture as a standard
practice, not an add-on.

What services does Paradigm Media Networks
offer? The agency offers a full-stack suite including SEO, Meta Ads
management, Google Ads management, content creation, social media management,
video scripting, video editing, website development, copywriting, and digital
transformation consulting. All services are integrated under a unified revenue
strategy rather than managed as independent deliverables.

How quickly can businesses expect results from
AI-powered performance marketing? Paid performance campaigns on Meta and Google
can show measurable improvements in ROAS within the first 30–60 days when
conversion infrastructure is properly structured before scaling. SEO and
content programs typically show meaningful ranking and traffic improvements
within 90–180 days. Full digital transformation engagements operate on longer
timelines tied to specific revenue milestones rather than fixed delivery
schedules.

Is Paradigm Media Networks suitable for small
businesses or only enterprise clients? Paradigm Media Networks works across business
sizes. The AI-powered methodology the agency uses has significantly reduced the
budget threshold at which sophisticated marketing execution is viable making
enterprise-level strategy accessible to growing SMEs and D2C brands, not just
large corporations.

<title>JOY&#45;N&#45;CREW Vacations LLP Marks Three Years of Redefining Premium Group Travel in India</title>
<link>https://en.newsbolt.in/joy-n-crew-vacations-llp-marks-three-years-of-redefining-premium-group-travel-in-india</link>
<guid>https://en.newsbolt.in/joy-n-crew-vacations-llp-marks-three-years-of-redefining-premium-group-travel-in-india</guid>
<description><![CDATA[ Pune
startup crosses 5,000 guests, achieves 78% repeat rate, and expands to seven
cities; built on a simple belief that group travel shouldn’t mean compromise

Pune : Three years ago, JOY-N-CREW Vacations LLP
set out to answer a question that India’s travel industry had long ignored: why
should group travel mean rushed itineraries, mediocre hotels, and zero cultural
depth? Today, with over 5,000 guests served, a 78% repeat customer rate, and
offices in seven Indian cities, the Pune-based company has its answer, and the
numbers to back it up.

Founded
in October 2022 by Ms. Pragya Adiraj, a serial entrepreneur with
ventures spanning super-speciality hospitals, investment banking, and event
management, and Ranjan Murthy, a travel industry veteran with over two decades
at companies including Cox &amp; Kings, JOY-N-CREW launched its premium group
tours in April 2023. The ambition was straightforward but radical for the
segment: deliver a genuinely premium experience at group-tour pricing, without
cutting corners on what actually matters to travelers.

In
an industry where repeat business is rare, JOY-N-CREW’s 78% repeat customer
rate stands out as perhaps its most telling metric. The company has built its
reputation not through promotional pricing but through an unwavering focus on
the quality of experience — a philosophy that has turned first-time guests into
loyal advocates.

The
portfolio spans destinations across six continents: Japan, China, Turkey, the
Balkans, Scandinavia, Spain, Portugal, Kenya, South America, and New Zealand,
including immersive single-country tours across Europe and, for the truly
adventurous, expedition journeys to Antarctica, deliberately chosen for their
depth, not just their popularity. Itineraries are designed to be unhurried,
with ample personal time, 4- and 5-star accommodations in central locations,
and fine-dining partnerships that prioritize authenticity over convenience.

Internationally,
JOY-N-CREW arranges a doctor on call in every city, a quiet but significant
commitment to the peace of mind of its primary demographic: discerning
travelers aged 45 to 80 who want to explore the world seriously and
comfortably.

What
sets JOY-N-CREW apart, guests say, is the texture of the experience. The
company’s signature “JNC Surprises” curated, unannounced local encounters that
immerse travelers in community life at each destination,have become a
much-anticipated feature of every tour. A dedicated shopping assistance team
and meticulously trained tour directors, who function as much as companions and
connectors as they do logistics managers, complete the picture.

“We
never wanted to be the company that takes you to 14 cities in 10 days. We wanted
to be the company you call when you actually want to feel a place, and then
call again the next year.” Ms. Pragya Adiraj, Co-Founder &amp; Managing
Partner, JOY-N-CREW Vacations LLP

From
its headquarters in Pune, JOY-N-CREW has opened six additional offices across
India and expanded into premium educational travel for schools and
universities, bringing the same curatorial standards to younger travelers. The
growth has been deliberate and quality-first at every step.

With
a strong operational foundation, a loyal customer base, and a clearly
differentiated product in a segment ripe for disruption, JOY-N-CREW is now
charting its next chapter,  one the
company’s leadership is approaching with the same deliberate ambition that has
defined its first three years.

To
fuel this next phase, JOY-N-CREW is currently in advanced discussions for
Series A funding. The investment will accelerate geographic expansion, deepen
its technology capabilities, and broaden its tour portfolio, enabling the
company to bring its premium travel philosophy to a significantly larger
audience across India and beyond.

About

Vacations LLP is a Pune-based premium group travel company founded in 2022 by
Ms. Pragya Adiraj and Ranjan Murthy. With seven offices across India and over

prioritize cultural immersion, comfort, and genuine human connection.

<title>EEVVA Continues to Attract Homebuyers in Punawale with Strong Pre&#45;Launch Response</title>
<link>https://en.newsbolt.in/eevva-continues-to-attract-homebuyers-in-punawale-with-strong-pre-launch-response</link>
<guid>https://en.newsbolt.in/eevva-continues-to-attract-homebuyers-in-punawale-with-strong-pre-launch-response</guid>
<description><![CDATA[ Pune,
Maharashtra:
Punawale’s residential landscape is rapidly evolving and one project currently
drawing significant attention is EEVVA, a premium residential development by
Siddhashila Group and Adi Group. Following an overwhelmingly positive response
during its pre-launch phase, the project continues to build strong momentum
among homebuyers and investors seeking quality homes in Pune’s emerging growth
corridor.

The
project entered the market with a focused positioning strategy built around
credibility and proven delivery, “From the Makers of EELA.” This messaging
resonated strongly with buyers already familiar with EELA&#039;s success, a
well-recognised residential development delivered in the same vicinity. The
trust associated with the developers’ previous work played a major role in
creating early traction and market curiosity around EEVVA.

Located
in the thriving micro-market of Punawale, EEVVA offers thoughtfully designed 2 &amp; 3 BHK premium residences tailored
for modern urban lifestyles. The project has been conceptualized to meet the
evolving expectations of today’s homebuyers who seek a balanced combination of
comfort, connectivity, lifestyle amenities and long-term value appreciation.

Over
the past few years, Punawale has emerged as one of Pune’s most promising
residential destinations. Improved road connectivity, expanding infrastructure
and proximity to major IT and commercial hubs have transformed the locality
into a preferred choice for both working professionals and families. With
seamless access to Hinjawadi IT Park, Mumbai-Bangalore Highway, schools,
hospitals, entertainment zones and retail hubs, the area continues to witness
growing residential demand.

This
infrastructure-led growth has significantly contributed to the strong response
received during EEVVA’s Expression of Interest (EOI) phase. Market observers
suggest that buyers today are becoming increasingly selective and are
prioritizing projects backed by trusted developers with established delivery
records. In such a competitive environment, EEVVA has managed to stand out by
combining location advantage with strong brand recall and premium positioning.

Industry
experts also point out that projects launched in rapidly developing corridors
like Punawale often witness faster inventory absorption, especially when backed
by credible developers and attractive launch-stage pricing. Early buyers are
increasingly viewing such projects not only as residential purchases but also
as long-term investment opportunities with substantial appreciation potential.

EEVVA
is expected to appeal to a wide segment of buyers, from first-time homeowners
and working professionals to investors looking for future-ready residential
assets in Pune’s expanding western corridor. The project’s focus on premium
living, modern planning and strategic location has added to its growing market
visibility.

The
strong recall value of EELA, combined with the developers’ reputation for
quality construction and timely delivery, has further strengthened buyer confidence
around the project. With increasing interest from prospective homeowners and
investors alike, EEVVA continues to build momentum as one of the noteworthy
residential developments in Punawale’s evolving real estate landscape.

As
Pune’s residential market continues to expand toward emerging micro-markets,
projects like EEVVA reflect the growing preference for developments that offer
not just homes, but a complete lifestyle experience backed by trust,
connectivity and long-term value.

<title>Rasayanam Upgrades Ashwagandha KSM&#45;66® Formula to Clinically Proven 600 mg Dosage</title>
<link>https://en.newsbolt.in/rasayanam-upgrades-ashwagandha-ksm-66-formula-to-clinically-proven-600-mg-dosage</link>
<guid>https://en.newsbolt.in/rasayanam-upgrades-ashwagandha-ksm-66-formula-to-clinically-proven-600-mg-dosage</guid>
<description><![CDATA[  

Faridabad, India – June 1, 2026 : As consumers increasingly seek
science-backed wellness solutions, Rasayanam has announced the launch of its
upgraded Ashwagandha KSM-66® formula, now delivering 600 mg per serving — a dosage widely
supported by clinical research for optimal efficacy and measurable results.

The upgrade reflects the company’s
focus on aligning its products with evidence-based wellness rather than
conventional industry benchmarks. The new formulation continues to use 100%
root-only KSM-66® extract standardized to 5% withanolides, without unnecessary
additives.

According to multiple clinical
studies conducted over the past decade, a daily intake of 600 mg of KSM-66®
Ashwagandha has been associated with improvements in stress management, sleep
quality, recovery, and physical performance. Research has also indicated
notable reductions in cortisol levels within eight weeks of consistent use.

While lower doses remain common
across the supplement market, Rasayanam stated that the shift to 600 mg
was made to ensure users receive a formulation more closely aligned with
clinically validated outcomes.

A company spokesperson said the
upgrade was introduced to bridge the gap between consumer expectations and
scientifically supported efficacy.

“Today’s consumers are looking
beyond marketing claims. They want wellness products backed by research and
capable of delivering tangible results. The upgraded 600 mg formulation
reflects our commitment to providing clinically aligned supplementation for
long-term health and performance,” the spokesperson said.

The company also noted that while
higher dosages exist, current research does not show significant additional
benefits for most users beyond the 600 mg threshold. By adopting this dosage,
Rasayanam aims to maintain a balance between effectiveness, safety, and
suitability for daily use.

The upgraded supplement is
designed to support individuals managing modern lifestyle challenges, including
stress, fatigue, poor sleep, and recovery concerns. The company believes the
move also represents a broader industry shift toward transparent, research-led
wellness products.

Founded in 2020, Rasayanam
Nutripharm Pvt. Ltd. focuses on clinically
researched supplements with an emphasis on ingredient transparency, purity
testing, and science-backed formulations.

About Rasayanam



Rasayanam is an Indian wellness and nutrition
brand focused on creating research-backed dietary supplements using clinically
studied ingredients. The company emphasizes transparency, quality testing, and
clean formulations designed to support long-term health and wellness.

resilience, redirecting its focus toward its core competencies of Aquaculture
and Exports, resulting in strong farm-level performance during the year.

&quot;We dedicate the results of this financial year to the
memory of Late Mr. Shaji Baby John, whose unwavering commitment to building a
world-class aquaculture enterprise laid the very foundation we stand on today.
The Board&#039;s trust and our team&#039;s resolve allowed us to stay focused on what we
do best. Our farms performed well, our financial discipline improved, and we
enter FY 2026–27 with a clear, five-pillar execution framework that we believe
will unlock the next chapter of Kings Infra&#039;s growth story.&quot; — Mr. Baby John Shaji, Managing Director, Kings Infra
Ventures Limited

FINANCIAL PERFORMANCE

Revenue from operations for FY 2025–26 grew to ₹162.15
Crore, up 30.13% from ₹124.63 Crore in FY 2024–25. In Q4 FY 2025–26 alone, the
Company reported net revenue of ₹46.85 Crore, a 44.77% improvement over ₹32.36
Crore in the corresponding quarter of the prior year.

EBITDA for the full year stood at ₹30.98 Crore, expanding
27.22% from ₹24.35 Crore in FY 2024–25, with Q4 EBITDA registering ₹9.39 Crore
against ₹6.12 Crore previously — a 53.43% increase. This improvement reflects
disciplined cost management alongside volume growth.

Profit Before Tax (PBT) rose 25.78% year-on-year to ₹22.30
Crore, while Profit After Tax (PAT) grew 24.41% to ₹16.36 Crore. Earnings Per
Share (EPS) advanced to ₹6.68 in FY 2025–26, from ₹5.37 in the preceding year.

BUSINESS &amp; OPERATIONAL UPDATE

The Company&#039;s strategic decision to focus on its core
competencies — Aquaculture and Exports — yielded tangible results during FY
2025–26. Farm-level operations recorded strong performance during the year,
supported by the Company&#039;s proprietary farming protocols and robust supply
chain partnerships.

On the export front, while geopolitical tensions and global
trade disruptions posed headwinds, the Company remains optimistic about the
near-term outlook. The Free Trade Agreement between India and the European
Union, expected to come into effect by 2027 – a development that is anticipated
to provide a meaningful fillip to the Company&#039;s export business in European
markets, a segment where Kings Infra has established brand presence through its
premium offerings.

STRATEGY FOR FY 2026–27: THE SCDMO EXECUTION FRAMEWORK

The Managing Director presented the Company&#039;s strategic
blueprint for FY 2026–27 to the Board of Directors, anchored in a five-pillar
execution framework — Synergise, Consolidate, Digitise, Monetise, and Optimise
(SCDMO). The Board reviewed and expressed its concurrence with the framework,
which is designed as a compounding flywheel where each pillar reinforces the
next.

Under Synergise, the Company will pursue strategic alliances
with like-minded exporters, value-added processing partners, domestic
distribution incumbents, and aquaculture technology firms — multiplying
capability without proportionate cost.

Consolidate involves rationalising the vendor base, focusing
on high-value customer relationships, and driving lean operations to protect
EBITDA margins.

Digitise will see deployment of technology at the farm
level, including micro-bubble aerators, auto-feeders, and real-time monitoring systems,
alongside ERP integration for end-to-end supply chain visibility and
strengthened traceability for international buyer compliance.

Monetise will unlock latent value from the Company&#039;s land
holdings, aquaculture expertise, and brand equity through consulting, managed
farm contracts, and new export SKUs.

Optimise — the continuous thread running through all pillars
— will institutionalise a culture of stringent performance reviews and resource
utilisation tracking across all business units.

&quot;Our FY 2025–26 financials reflect the strength of our
core aquaculture business and our team&#039;s ability to deliver consistent growth
even in a challenging year. With revenues crossing ₹162 Crore and PAT at ₹16.36
Crore, we have demonstrated that our fundamentals are sound. The EU FTA,
combined with our SCDMO framework, gives us confidence in accelerating both
topline and margin improvement in FY 2026–27.&quot;

<title>India’s Regulated Organizations Now Have a Native Answer to the Database Visibility Crisis</title>
<link>https://en.newsbolt.in/indias-regulated-organizations-now-have-a-native-answer-to-the-database-visibility-crisis</link>
<guid>https://en.newsbolt.in/indias-regulated-organizations-now-have-a-native-answer-to-the-database-visibility-crisis</guid>
<description><![CDATA[ ESDS
Software Solution Limited strengthens its enterprise security offering with
Enlight Jatayoo — a purpose-built Database Activity Monitoring platform that
gives organisations across BFSI, government, healthcare, manufacturing, and
every sector that holds data continuous, forensic-grade visibility into
database activity, privileged access, and SQL-level behaviour, from a fully
sovereign, air-gap infrastructure.

Mumbai,
India, 30 May 2026: ESDS Software Solution Limited, India’s
sovereign cloud and data centre provider, today announced the availability of Enlight
Jatayoo, a Database Activity Monitoring (DAM) platform purpose-built for
India’s regulated industries. The platform addresses a critical and largely
unresolved gap in enterprise data security: the absence of continuous,
forensic-grade visibility at the database layer the final frontier where an
organisation’s most sensitive data resides.

As
India’s regulatory landscape grows more demanding with CERT-In mandating
180-day log retention, RBI tightening privileged access controls, and SEBI’s
Cybersecurity and Cyber Resilience Framework (CSCRF) expanding database audit
obligations the pressure on CISOs, compliance heads, and DBA leaders to
demonstrate real-time visibility into database activity has intensified. Yet,
for most enterprises, the database layer remains the least monitored system in
their security architecture.

Enlight
Jatayoo is designed to resolve this. Built on an air-gap, fully on-premises
architecture, the platform deploys without requiring a database restart
eliminating the change management overhead and operational downtime risk that
have historically made enterprise security deployments disruptive. No data
leaves the customer’s infrastructure. No foreign cloud dependency. No
third-party exposure risk

Piyush
Somani, Promoter, Managing Director and Chairman, ESDS Software Solution
Limited, said:

“Over
74% of confirmed data breaches globally involve access to privileged
credentials or insider access and the database is the final destination in
every one of those incidents. Organisations across every sector banking,
government, healthcare, manufacturing — have invested heavily in perimeter
security. Firewalls. Endpoint agents. SIEM platforms. But the database layer,
where the actual data lives, has remained a blind spot.

That
blind spot is no longer acceptable. Regulatory mandates are tightening. Audit
expectations are rising. And the threat is no longer theoretical. Enlight
Jatayoo Database Activity Monitoring (DAM) platform is built on Indian soil,
for Indian operating realities, deployable without disrupting a single
production system. We believe the next decade of enterprise data security will
be defined by how deeply organisations understand what is happening inside
their databases. Enlight Jatayoo is how they find out.”

Piyush
Somani, Promoter, Managing Director and Chairman, ESDS Software Solution
Limited

The
Database Visibility Gap: Key Challenges

Organisations
across sectors face a compounding set of challenges at the database security layer:

●       
No query-level visibility: Most
organisations can detect a network intrusion but cannot identify which SQL
query was executed, by whom, against which table. The database generates no
native alert when a privileged user extracts millions of records.

●       
Insider threat and privileged access risk: DBAs,
developers, and contractors hold unrestricted access to production databases.
Without behavioural monitoring, anomalous access goes undetected until after a
breach.

●       
Incomplete audit trails: Regulatory
and internal audit mandates require tamper-proof, time-stamped logs. Most
enterprises rely on native database logs that are neither immutable nor
structured for forensic use.

●       
Deployment disruption: Security
deployments typically demand database restarts and change management cycles,
introducing risk that delays procurement and defers security improvement.

Enlight
Jatayoo: A Unified Database Security Platform

Enlight
Jatayoo functions as a single control plane for database activity visibility,
privileged access monitoring, insider threat detection, and compliance
reporting. It covers the database stack present across India’s banking,
financial services, insurance, healthcare, government, and enterprise
technology sectors.

The
platform enables organisations to monitor every query in real time with
session-level granularity; detect and investigate insider threats through
AI-assisted User Behaviour Analytics and forensic session replay; track DBA and
privileged user activity including after-hours access and bulk data exports;
generate immutable, compliance-ready audit trails; and maintain complete data
sovereignty through air-gap, on-premises deployment with zero external data
transmission.

Komal
Somani, Whole-time Director, CMO and CHRO, ESDS Software Solution Limited, said:

“Across
every sector we engage with  banking,
government, healthcare, manufacturing 
the pattern is the same: organisations are investing in perimeter

undefended. Enlight Jatayoo changes that. It brings structure, accountability,
and forensic clarity to the one layer that matters most backed by an in-country
team that understands Indian regulatory timelines, audit cycles, and the
operational realities our customers face every day.”

*EBITDA
calculated as Profit Before Tax plus Finance Costs and Depreciation &amp;
Amortisation.

Commenting
on the performance, Mr. Fahim Batliwala, Chairman, Managing Director and
Promoter of SIMCA Advertising Limited, said “FY26
marks a defining milestone in SIMCA Advertising’s journey as we successfully
transitioned into a publicly listed company while delivering our strongest-ever
financial performance. Revenue grew by nearly 75% and profitability more than doubled
reflecting the strength of our business model and disciplined execution. More
importantly, these results validate our strategic transformation from a
traditional outdoor advertising company into a scalable media infrastructure
platform powered by premium assets, digital innovation and long-standing client
relationships and continued expansion across key markets.

As
India’s urban landscape evolves and advertisers increasingly seek measurable,
high-impact consumer engagement, we believe the opportunity for organised and
technology-led outdoor media players has never been stronger. With majority of
our revenue now coming from Digital Out-of-Home advertising, a growing
portfolio of premium media assets, strategic investments to expand our
ecosystem and a clear roadmap for expansion across key metropolitan markets, we
are building a future-ready business designed for sustainable growth. We remain
committed to creating long-term value through innovation, operational
excellence, strong governance and prudent capital allocation.”

The
Company’s net worth of Rs. 37.70 crore was restated to ₹29.03 crore arising
from the reclassification of reserves into share capital following the bonus
issue last year. The audited financial statements for FY26 received an unmodified
audit opinion, further reinforcing the Company’s commitment to strong
governance, transparency and financial discipline.

SIMCA
also generated robust operating cash flows during the year, with net cash from
operating activities increasing to ₹10.52 Crore from ₹3.31 Crore in FY25,
reflecting the quality of earnings and strong cash conversion. The Company
simultaneously accelerated investments in growth infrastructure, with Property,
Plant and Equipment increasing more than seven-fold during the year as it
expanded its outdoor media network and strengthened its operational
capabilities.

Importantly,
SIMCA’s underlying financial strength remains robust, supported by strong
profitability, healthy cash flows and a debt-free balance sheet, providing a
solid foundation for future growth.

Growth
Outlook

Over
the years, SIMCA has successfully evolved from a traditional outdoor
advertising company into a scalable media infrastructure platform with
nationwide execution capabilities, a strong portfolio of premium media assets
and a growing digital footprint driven by the rapid adoption of Digital Out-of-Home
(DOOH) advertising. Led by Chairman, Managing Director and Promoter Mr. Fahim
Batliwala, the Company has built a differentiated position through strategic
asset ownership, long-standing advertiser relationships and operational
excellence. What began as a billboard acquisition business has today
transformed into a comprehensive advertising solutions platform supported by a
network of over 250 partners across India, enabling seamless execution of
integrated campaigns across markets.

Today,
the Company’s revenue is increasingly generated through digital media formats,
enabling significantly higher inventory utilisation, improved asset
productivity and enhanced monetisation of premium locations. This
technology-led transformation combined with SIMCA’s strong presence across key
advertising corridors, positions the Company to benefit from the growing demand
for measurable, dynamic and high-impact media solutions.

Looking
ahead, SIMCA is focused on expanding its digital footprint, strengthening
ownership of premium media assets and replicating its successful Mumbai model
across high-growth metropolitan markets. Supported by a debt-free balance
sheet, strong execution capabilities and a scalable business model, the Company
is well-positioned to capitalise on favourable industry trends including
urbanisation, rising consumer mobility, infrastructure development and
increasing adoption of omni-channel advertising.

With
a clear strategic roadmap, strong industry fundamentals and growing
opportunities arising from sector consolidation and technology adoption, SIMCA
Advertising Limited remains focused on scaling its media portfolio and
strengthening premium asset ownership as well as confident of delivering
sustainable growth and sustainable long-term value creation for its
stakeholders.

<title>Uno Minda Introduces Metal Wiper Blade Range with Technology from Taiwan for Superior Visibility in rain and dust for the Indian Aftermarket</title>
<link>https://en.newsbolt.in/uno-minda-introduces-metal-wiper-blade-range-with-technology-from-taiwan-for-superior-visibility-in-rain-and-dust-for-the-indian-aftermarket</link>

<description><![CDATA[   

National, 29th May 2026: As India’s automotive sector grows,
driven by rising vehicle sales and a growing focus on safety, the need for
clear, consistent windshield visibility has become critical to a safe driving
experience. However, other wiper blades often lose effectiveness over time,
leading to streaks, noise, and uneven wiping that can compromise visibility. At
the same time, the industry is witnessing a shift towards advanced technologies
that offer better performance and quieter operation. 

Addressing these evolving needs, Uno Minda Aftermarket has
launched its new wiper blade range, featuring technology from Taiwan. This
range features precise design and improved durability for everyday driving. 

Commenting on the launch, Mr. Anand Kumar,
Business Head, Uno Minda Aftermarket, said, “A key challenge for drivers
today is the gradual decline in wiper performance, which often leads to
streaks, noise, and reduced visibility, especially during critical weather
conditions. This not only affects driving comfort but also compromises safety.
With our metal wiper blade range, we aim to address this issue through a
combination of precision engineering and reliable performance.

The new range aims to deliver consistent, high-quality
performance that ensures better visibility and a safer driving experience. The
wiper blades have a pressure-balanced frame design that maintains uniform
contact with the windshield for smooth and streak-free wiping. The rubber wiper
is coated with graphite and Teflon, which reduces friction and helps them operate
quietly for a more comfortable drive. 

Built for durability, the wiper blades are tested for up to
500,000 wiping cycles, ensuring long-lasting and reliable performance. The
range includes a universal adapter that fits over 95% of vehicles, making installation
easy and providing a seamless fit for various models.

 Designed with features such as a
pressure-balanced frame for uniform wiping, specialised coating for smoother
and quieter operation, and enhanced durability, the range ensures consistent

<title>Bridging the Awareness–Action Divide: Transforming Product Literacy into Ownership</title>
<link>https://en.newsbolt.in/bridging-the-awarenessaction-divide-transforming-product-literacy-into-ownership</link>

<description><![CDATA[ We live in an era where the average Indian professional is
a walking encyclopaedia of financial terms, yet our retirement preparedness
remains surprisingly fragile. While we can effortlessly navigate app-based
investments and discuss global market trends, a peculiar psychological fog sets
in when we look thirty years down the road. We are a nation that acknowledges
the need for retirement planning in theory, but treats it as a &quot;non-urgent
luxury&quot; in practice. This is the Awareness-Action Divide, and
bridging it is no longer just a financial goal, it is a necessity for personal
dignity.

Most Indian households fall victim to Optimism Bias,
the deep-seated belief that &quot;things will work out&quot; or that a future
windfall will solve our problems. We prioritize the &quot;now&quot; over the
&quot;later,&quot; often diverting potential retirement savings toward
immediate life-stage costs like lavish weddings or a child’s foreign education.

Data from the India
Retirement Index Study (IRIS) 5.0
reveals a persistent Dependency Bias, with a significant portion of
Indians still viewing their children as their ultimate safety net. However, as
urban migration and nuclear families become the norm, this cultural contract is
fraying. Coupled with Inaction Bias, the tendency to procrastinate
because the goal feels too distant to be tangible, we find ourselves in a state
of &quot;disciplined delay,&quot; waiting for a &quot;perfect time&quot; to
start that never actually arrives.

Decoding the Gap - The Math of Reality

High financial literacy has not yet translated into
emotional ownership. We understand an &quot;Annuity&quot; as a product, but not
as a future lifeline. To bridge the gap, we must look at the &quot;hidden
thief&quot; of retirement: Inflation.

The IRIS 5.0 findings suggest that while India’s
overall retirement index score has improved to 46, the
&quot;Financial&quot; pillar continues to lag. Many Indians are saving, but
they are not saving enough to counter the eroding power of inflation
over a 20-to-30-year horizon.

The Health-Wealth Intersection

A striking insight from IRIS 5.0 is the rise of the Health
Preparedness Index. Retirement planning is no longer just about
&quot;income replacement&quot;; it is about medical dignity.

With healthcare costs in India rising, financial ownership
is your only shield against becoming a financial burden on your family. In Tier
2 and 3 geographies, the shift away from joint family structures means
&quot;Self-Reliance&quot; is no longer a choice, but a geographic-neutral
necessity. A medical emergency in your 70s requires immediate liquidity, not a
piece of illiquid ancestral land.

IRIS 5.0 highlights that a vast majority of Indian
retirement savings are locked in instruments that do not offer regular,
predictable cash flow. The goal is to ensure the &quot;kitchen fire keeps
burning&quot; every month. This requires a shift toward Annuities and
pension products that provide a steady, guaranteed stream of income, ensuring
your wealth is accessible exactly when you need it.

Hence, to move from being a bystander to an owner, one
should follow this simplified framework:


 The Mirror Test:
     Calculate what you actually spend today. This is your
     non-negotiable baseline.
 The Micro-Start: Ownership begins with the first premium. The magic of
     compounding values time more than the ticket size. Starting
     small today is infinitely better than starting &quot;big&quot; five years
     too late.


Perhaps the most telling data point from IRIS 5.0 is the
correlation between planning and mental well-being. Early planners
report significantly lower anxiety levels and higher overall life satisfaction.
Retirement ownership is not just about having a bank balance tomorrow; it is
about having Mental Peace today.

When you bridge the divide between knowing and doing, you
reclaim control over your future. Moving from a &quot;reader&quot; to a
&quot;policyholder&quot; is the single most important act of self-care you can
perform. Start today, because your future self is counting on your action, not
just your awareness. ]]></description>

<title>Beyond Flowers and Brunches: How One Mumbai Hospital Is Redefining What Mother&amp;apos;s Day Should Mean</title>
<link>https://en.newsbolt.in/beyond-flowers-and-brunches-how-one-mumbai-hospital-is-redefining-what-mothers-day-should-mean</link>
<guid>https://en.newsbolt.in/beyond-flowers-and-brunches-how-one-mumbai-hospital-is-redefining-what-mothers-day-should-mean</guid>
<description><![CDATA[ Mumbai (Maharashtra) [India], May 28 : Rohini Kulkarni&#039;s children had
the dinner reservation made a week in advance. Her daughter had ordered
flowers. Her son had picked out a card. Everything was in place for a Mother&#039;s
Day that looked, from the outside, exactly as it should.

What no one had planned  what no one had thought to ask  was
when Rohini had last seen a doctor for herself.

Every Mother’s Day, families across India express love in countless
ways: flowers, messages, dinners, gifts. But rarely does the conversation turn
toward her health. Rarely do we ask when she last had a blood test, a thyroid
screening, a cardiac check-up, or even a routine preventive consultation. Not
because families do not care, but because women’s health has long been treated
as something to be managed later, after everyone else’s needs are met. And the
consequences of that silence are not small. According to the National Family
Health Survey (NFHS-5), more than 57% of
Indian women between the ages of 15 and 49 are anaemic. Studies suggest that
fewer than one in five Indian women undergo routine preventive health
screenings in any given year. Heart disease, often assumed to be a man’s
condition, is in fact the leading cause of death among women in India,
responsible for nearly one in three female deaths nationally. These are not
statistics about strangers. They are statistics about mothers. About women like
Rohini, who are celebrated once a year and screened almost never. 

This year, Surya Hospitals decided to change that conversation.

The hospital&#039;s Mother&#039;s Day initiative ‘Echoes of Her Love’ is built
around a deliberately simple and uncomfortable question: beyond the
celebration, are mothers truly being cared for in the way they deserve? Not
symbolically. Not once a year over brunch. But in a way that actually protects
their health over time. For a hospital that has spent four decades doing
exactly that, Surya Hospitals was founded in 1983 with an unwavering focus on
women&#039;s and children&#039;s health, at a time when Mumbai&#039;s suburbs had little
access to specialised maternal care  the question is not a campaign idea.
It is an institutional belief.

“One of the strongest realities we have observed is women often learn
to normalise discomfort instead of seeking timely medical care, ” says Dr. Bhupendra Avasthi, Chairman and
Managing Director, Surya Hospitals. “At Surya Hospitals, caring for women has
never meant treating illness only after it appears. It has always meant
encouraging earlier intervention, preventive care, and creating a culture where
women feel equally deserving of medical attention, not last in line for it.
‘Echoes of Her Love’ is simply an extension of that belief.” 

The initiative leads with awareness  specifically, the medical
reality that women in India consistently delay preventive health screenings
while managing the health of everyone around them. Cardiac concerns, thyroid
disorders, anaemia and vision changes are among the conditions that specialists
at Surya Hospitals say are regularly caught late in women, precisely because
there was never a moment that felt like the right time to check. According
to studies published in the Indian Journal of Endocrinology and Metabolism,
hypothyroidism affects nearly 1 in 10 adults in India, with a higher prevalence
among women. India also carries one of the highest rates of
osteoporosis in Asia, with an estimated 50 million affected, the majority of
them women, most of them unaware.

&quot;The most common thing we hear from mothers who come to us with a
delayed diagnosis is that they knew something felt different; they just kept
putting it off,&quot; says, Senior Consultant, Obstetrics and Gynaecology,
Surya Hospitals. &quot;Mother&#039;s Day feels like the right moment to interrupt
that pattern. One conversation, one appointment, one decision to finally put
herself first  that is all it takes to change the trajectory.&quot;

The response from families who engaged with the initiative told its own
story. A father who came in asking about his wife&#039;s persistent fatigue,
something the family had long dismissed as the exhaustion of raising three
children, left with an appointment for a full blood panel and thyroid
screening. A daughter who booked a Mother’s Day health check-up for her mother
as a gift found herself discussing preventive care, routine screenings, and
long-overdue consultations she had never previously considered important.

In many homes, the conversation quietly shifted from “What
should we give her this Mother’s Day?” to “When was her
last health check-up?” That shift, subtle, human, and deeply
meaningful  was exactly the point.

It is a shift that Surya Hospitals has been working toward for forty
years. The hospital&#039;s NABH-accredited centres across Mumbai, Pune, and Jaipur
have collectively supported women through high-risk pregnancies, complex
diagnoses, and recoveries that required not just medical expertise but genuine
human care. Its NICU teams have seen babies born as early as 22 weeks go home
healthy. Surya Hospitals has been recognised among India’s leading hospitals
for paediatrics, neonatology, and women’s healthcare, including being awarded
“Best Hospital in India for Pediatric and Neonatal Care” at the CIMS Healthcare
Excellence Awards and ranking among Mumbai’s top speciality hospitals for
paediatrics and gynaecology in the Mid-Day Critical Care Hospital Survey. 
This Mother&#039;s Day initiative is consistent with that approach: no grand
gestures, no sweeping promises. Just a question worth asking, and the medical
expertise to act on the answer.

For healthcare professionals, the significance of what Surya Hospitals
is doing extends well beyond a single day on the calendar. Preventive care for
women remains one of the most consistently underprioritised areas of health in
India  shaped by a combination of time constraints, financial hesitation,
cultural expectations, and a deeply ingrained tendency for mothers to absorb
their own discomfort quietly and carry on. An initiative that uses the
visibility of Mother&#039;s Day to spotlight that gap is doing something more
durable than any seasonal promotion. It is normalising the idea that a mother&#039;s
health is not an afterthought. It is not something to attend to once everything
else is in order. It is the foundation on which everything else in a family
rests.

Because sometimes the most meaningful way to celebrate a mother is not
just to honour everything she has done for everyone else  but to finally
make sure someone is looking after her too. Echoing her love back with an
actionable ‘Thank You’.

About Surya Hospitals

Surya Hospitals has been a pioneer in offering modern healthcare
services for women and children in India since 1983. Recognised among India’s
leading multispecialty hospitals for maternal and child health, the hospital
has received several national recognitions, including the “Best Hospital in
India for Pediatric and Neonatal Care” at the CIMS Healthcare Excellence Awards
and top rankings in Paediatrics as well as Gynaecology &amp; Obstetrics in the
Mid-Day Critical Care Hospital Survey.

With NABH-accredited centres in Mumbai (Santacruz and Chembur), Pune,
and Jaipur, Surya Hospitals continues to focus on specialised, preventive, and
patient-centric healthcare for women, children, and families.

<description><![CDATA[  

Chennai,
28th May 2026: India’s growing Non Performing Asset (NPA)
space has created a strong need for a more transparent and accessible system
for buying and selling bank auction properties. Addressing this gap, Tandora
has officially launched India’s first dedicated digital marketplace for bank
auction properties, bringing together buyers, investors, banks, Asset
Reconstruction Companies (ARCs), and financial institutions on a single
platform.

listing portals by offering buyers assistance across the entire process,

Marque . 

Speaking
at the launch, G. Vignesh Rajan Founder Tandora said, “We have spent years
working within India’s NPA recovery ecosystem, advising banks, executing
resolutions, and working closely with buyers. What we consistently observed was
that the opportunity existed, but access remained difficult. Tandora was
created to simplify this ecosystem and bring transparency, structure, and
accessibility to the bank auction property market.”

The
platform currently hosts more than 500 verified and unverified property
listings across multiple districts in Tamil Nadu, covering Residential,
Commercial, Industrial, Trust, and Agricultural assets. Listings are available

Tandora is empaneled with major banks, financial institutions, and ARCs,
offering buyers access to institutional auction opportunities through a
structured and technology driven interface.

A
key feature of the platform is its focus on legal awareness and buyer
education. Tandora provides information related to the SARFAESI Act, the
Recovery of Debts and Bankruptcy Act, and proceedings under the National
Company Law Tribunal (NCLT). The platform also shares landmark judgments from
the Supreme Court of India and the Madras High Court, along with practical
guidance for buyers participating in auctions.

Through
Tandora, buyers can explore properties across more than 18 districts and
multiple asset categories. Once a property is shortlisted, the platform
facilitates inspections, document verification, auction participation guidance,
financing assistance, title transfer processes, and possession related
formalities. The platform is guided by an experienced advisory board that
includes S. Sridhar, Kishor Kharat, and P. Shanmugam, bringing decades of
banking and financial expertise to the initiative.

Currently
headquartered in Chennai with branch offices in Madurai and Coimbatore,
Tandora’s operations span across Tamil Nadu, with plans to expand into
Karnataka, Telangana, and Andhra Pradesh as part of its broader national growth
strategy.

“Tamil
Nadu is only the starting point for us. The bank auction property market
represents a significant opportunity across India, and our objective is to
build a platform that transforms how distressed assets are discovered,
evaluated, and acquired. When buyers gain better access and confidence, the
entire financial ecosystem benefits,” said G. Vignesh Rajan.

As
interest in value driven real estate investments continues to grow, Tandora
aims to bring greater transparency, accessibility, and technology adoption to
India’s distressed property market, creating a more organized marketplace for
buyers and financial institutions alike.

<title>Mehta Realty launches the next generation of office spaces for enterprising businesses with Mehta Angelo</title>
<link>https://en.newsbolt.in/mehta-realty-launches-the-next-generation-of-office-spaces-for-enterprising-businesses-with-mehta-angelo</link>
<guid>https://en.newsbolt.in/mehta-realty-launches-the-next-generation-of-office-spaces-for-enterprising-businesses-with-mehta-angelo</guid>
<description><![CDATA[  


 Located in East Goregaon, a thriving business district, the
     project offers seamless accessibility, connectivity, and cost advantages 
 Mehta Angelo is designed to accommodate not just the current
     space requirements of growing businesses but also their future needs 
 Efficient floor plates and open-plan layouts allow businesses
     to customise their workspace around their work culture 


For Immediate Release, Mumbai, May 28,
2026: Mehta Realty, a developer synonymous with
consistency, long-term responsibility and quality construction across Mumbai
for over five decades has always been ahead of the curve in recognising the
needs of growing businesses. Accordingly, their latest launch – Mehta Angelo, a
Grade-A commercial address, has been designed for entities that seek
visibility, credibility and space to expand without losing their identity.

In a landscape replete with oversized IT
parks and anonymous glass towers, Mehta Angelo stands apart by offering
businesses a more personal and scalable business environment. A limited-scale,
seven-storey edifice, the structure offers 35,000 sq. ft of thoughtfully
planned office spaces, ranging from 445 sq. ft to 4919 sq. ft. Dedicated
basement parking, efficient office typologies with scalable combinations, and a
modern glass curtain wall façade further add to the project’s allure.

Commenting on the project’s launch, Mr.
Ruchit Mehta, partner at Mehta Realty, said: “Mehta Angelo
recognises not just the existing needs but also the growth aspirations of
contemporary businesses. Our project is designed with a range of options for
every business need – from compact, founder-led setups to full-floor corporate
environments. This allows businesses to start at the right size and scale
within the same address. Efficient planning ensures minimal circulation loss
and maximum usable area.”

While for owner-occupiers, Mehta Angelo
offers stability and long-term asset creation, for investors, it presents an
opportunity to participate in a high-demand commercial belt with scalable unit
formats. Additionally, commercial properties typically offer stronger rental
returns as compared to residential properties – while commercial yields average
around 7–9 per cent, residential yields generally range between 2 and 4 per
cent.

Mehta Angelo is pegged to be of special
interest to SMEs and homegrown start-ups, for whom investing in this property
will prove a strategic advantage. While East Goregaon has evolved into one of
Mumbai’s strongest commercial micro-markets, driven by established business
parks, rapid metro expansion, and substantial infrastructure upgrades, it is
also witnessing a limited supply of Grade-A commercial space. Its proximity to
major commercial hubs and lower ticket sizes as compared to offices in IT parks
are other key advantages.

Strategically located in the heart of East
Goregaon’s business belt, Mehta Angelo is the cornerstone of an established and
thriving commercial ecosystem. While BKC is a quick 15.7 km, the location is
also backed by unparalleled access to public transport – the Goregaon railway
station is only 290 m from the site, and the Goregaon East and Aarey metro
stations are 1 km away. Road connectivity is another highlight of the project,
with the Western Express Highway at 1.1 km, the Jogeshwari-Vikhroli Link Road
at 3.3 km and the Goregaon-Mulund Link Road at 1.9 km.  

True to Mehta Realty’s DNA, sustainability
is built into the heart of Mehta Angelo. The project has received LEED Gold
Pre-certification and has been designed to perform intelligently, reduce
operational costs, and enhance the comfort of all occupants. While
interventions such as energy-efficient lighting systems and advanced energy
metering improve energy performance, rainwater harvesting and an on-site sewage
treatment plant reduce the building’s carbon footprint. Measures have been
taken to enhance indoor air quality with design input, while each office space
receives ample natural daylight.

About – Founded
in 1978, Mehta Realty is among Mumbai’s most trusted real estate developers
with 12,000+ homes, 180+ buildings, and 96.5 lakh sq. ft. delivered. Known for
projects like Yogi Dham, Amrut Paradise, Mehta Legend, and One Kalyan, the
group blends traditional values with modern innovation. Expanding across Mumbai
MMR, Mehta Realty is entering cluster redevelopment with Mehta Marquina in
Goregaon East and aims for carbon neutrality in the next two decades—continuing
its legacy of trust, sustainability, and design excellence.

<title>Excelsoft Technologies and AQA Partner to Build the Future of High&#45;Stakes E&#45;Marking</title>
<link>https://en.newsbolt.in/excelsoft-technologies-and-aqa-partner-to-build-the-future-of-high-stakes-e-marking</link>
<guid>https://en.newsbolt.in/excelsoft-technologies-and-aqa-partner-to-build-the-future-of-high-stakes-e-marking</guid>
<description><![CDATA[ ~Partnership validates
Excelsoft’s proven e-marking platform and creates a global opportunity to
modernize and commercialize high-stakes assessment~

Mysore : Excelsoft Technologies Limited (“Excelsoft”),
a global provider of assessment and learning technology solutions, has entered
into a strategic partnership with AQA, the United Kingdom’s largest awarding
body, to jointly develop a next-generation e-marking platform for high-stakes
assessments.

The engagement marks a
significant validation of Excelsoft’s established e-marking platform, which AQA
selected following a rigorous multi-stage evaluation process conducted over
several months. Building on Excelsoft’s existing intellectual property, the two
organisations will co-develop an enhanced solution tailored to AQA’s
requirements for large-scale, high-stakes assessment.

The new platform will
combine Excelsoft’s proven e-marking technology with AQA’s decades of
assessment expertise and operational insight. It will progressively replace
AQA’s three incumbent e-marking systems with a unified, modern platform
designed to support the secure, reliable and consistent digital evaluation of
handwritten examination scripts at scale.

Once fully implemented,
the platform is expected to support the marking of approximately 12 million
student scripts annually, involving around 40,000 examiners, and
will play a critical role in supporting one of the world’s most trusted
qualification systems. The multi-year, multi-million-pound contract
reflects the scale and strategic importance of the engagement, further
strengthening Excelsoft’s presence in the global assessment technology sector.

Commenting on the
partnership, Mr. Doreswamy P, CEO, Excelsoft Technologies, said, “This
partnership marks a defining milestone for Excelsoft, building technology
solutions for some of the world’s most complex assessment ecosystems. The scale
and significance of this engagement spanning millions of scripts and a vast
examiner network reflects the confidence placed in our technology, operational
excellence and long-term vision for digital assessment. In partnership with
AQA, we are committed to building a future-ready platform designed to meet the
evolving needs of awarding bodies globally. As education systems accelerate
their digital transformation journeys, this engagement further strengthens
Excelsoft’s position as a trusted global leader in high-stakes assessment
technology.”

Speaking about the
collaboration, Mr. Justin Coombs, Chief Assessment Technology Officer at AQA,
said, “AQA is delighted to be partnering with Excelsoft to deliver its next
generation e-marking tool, based on the Saras platform.  As the UK&#039;s largest provider of general
qualifications, it&#039;s critical we have the digital infrastructure to reliably
and accurately mark millions of exam scripts to tight schedules.  Our marking program requires the highest
levels of resilience and availability, cyber security, and straightforward and
performant user experience for our 40,000 examiners.  We believe Excelsoft bring the capacity,
skill and experience to deliver a truly next generation digital marking
capability.”

AQA is trusted by the
vast majority of schools and colleges across the United Kingdom and is
responsible for a substantial share of GCSE and A-Level examinations each year.
Its decision to partner with Excelsoft follows an extensive technical and
strategic assessment that evaluated product capability, scalability, security
and alignment with the stringent regulatory and governance standards that
underpin high-stakes assessments in the UK. Beyond supporting AQA’s own
operations, Excelsoft and AQA intend to jointly explore opportunities to offer
the platform to other awarding bodies and assessment organisations across the
United Kingdom, Europe and international markets. This partnership
significantly strengthens Excelsoft’s position in the global assessment
technology sector and further establishes the company’s credentials as a
trusted provider of e-marking solutions for large-scale, high-stakes
examinations.

As assessment systems
continue to evolve, Excelsoft and AQA are committed to setting new benchmarks
in digital marking by delivering a platform that advances fairness, consistency
and operational excellence for education systems around the world.

About Excelsoft
Technologies

Excelsoft Technologies
is a leading provider of innovative e-assessment and learning solutions to
awarding bodies, educational institutions, corporations and governments
worldwide. With platforms supporting high-stakes examinations, large-scale
assessments, and rich digital learning experiences, Excelsoft combines deep
domain expertise with cutting-edge AI and cloud technologies to help

<title>Greater Whitefield: The Emerging Growth Frontier of East Bengaluru</title>
<link>https://en.newsbolt.in/greater-whitefield-the-emerging-growth-frontier-of-east-bengaluru</link>
<guid>https://en.newsbolt.in/greater-whitefield-the-emerging-growth-frontier-of-east-bengaluru</guid>
<description><![CDATA[ East
Bengaluru&#039;s growth story has followed a familiar pattern - locations once
considered peripheral gradually evolve into thriving urban hubs. Whitefield and
the Outer Ring Road corridor were once seen as distant extensions of the city
before infrastructure and employment centres transformed them into some of
Bengaluru&#039;s most established residential and commercial districts. Today, a
similar shift is taking shape further east, and a new identity is emerging to
capture it: Greater Whitefield.

Extending
beyond Whitefield along the Old Madras Road (NH 75) corridor, and
well-connected to ITPL, KIADB and KR Puram, Greater Whitefield is fast becoming
the natural eastward extension of one of India&#039;s most recognised real estate
micro-markets.

Policy
push and infrastructure investment reinforcing momentum

The
rise of Greater Whitefield is not incidental; it is being reinforced by
sustained public investment in infrastructure. Karnataka&#039;s sustained
infrastructure investment, from road widening and mobility corridors to planned
metro expansion is steadily cementing Greater Whitefield&#039;s place in Bengaluru&#039;s
future urban fabric. These investments are reshaping land economics, boosting
buyer confidence, and accelerating developer interest in the region.

Infrastructure
driving the perception of buyers

Infrastructure
development is playing a pivotal role in establishing Greater Whitefield as a
credible address. Upgrades to Old Madras Road, seamless connectivity to
Whitefield and broader East Bengaluru, and regional projects like the Satellite
Town Ring Road (STRR) are steadily compressing travel times and pulling this
corridor firmly within Bengaluru&#039;s daily mobility network. For Greater
Whitefield, that tipping point has arrived - and the momentum is only building.

A
shift toward planned, large-format development

One
of Greater Whitefield&#039;s most defining advantages is its limited land
availability. Unlike saturated urban pockets, this corridor offers larger,
contiguous parcels that enable a fundamentally different and more ambitious
approach to development.

Developers
are responding accordingly. Rather than standalone apartment blocks, the region
is seeing a clear shift toward integrated townships and large-format
communities, complete with internal infrastructure, open green spaces, and
curated amenities. These formats are directly aligned with how today&#039;s
homebuyer thinks, not just about the home, but about the entire living
environment that surrounds it. Greater Whitefield is becoming the canvas for
this new generation of residential development.

The
Value of Space, and the Vision Redefining Greater Whitefield

For
HNIs, corporate leaders, senior professionals, businessmen, and NRIs, Greater
Whitefield carries a compelling strategic advantage. Kempegowda International
Airport is just 40 minutes away, making it ideal for frequent flyers seeking
global connectivity close to home. The region&#039;s economic base is diversifying
rapidly, with manufacturing, logistics, and large-scale data centres driving
growth. Global majors like Volvo and Honda already have a presence here, while
Bengaluru&#039;s leading IT hubs - Whitefield and ORR remain well within reach.

As
Bengaluru matures, homebuyers are weighing not just proximity to work, but
quality of living, ease of movement, and access to well-planned communities.
Greater Whitefield delivers on all three: offering the lifestyle aspirations of
Whitefield at a scale and value the original micro-market can no longer
provide.

Set
against this backdrop is the upcoming Sobha OneWorld - a mega community
township that brings residential, retail, commercial, and cultural spaces into
a single master-planned community. It is the kind of development that reflects
both the scale of ambition that Greater Whitefield now attracts, and the
direction in which Bengaluru&#039;s most considered homebuyers are looking. Ahead of
its grand launch expected in mid-June, the project has already generated
considerable interest from homebuyers - an early indication that the market is
responding to exactly the kind of vision that Greater Whitefield has been
building toward.

If
Whitefield defined East Bengaluru&#039;s last chapter of growth, Greater Whitefield
is where the next one is being written.

<title>India’s Next Big Distribution Network May Not Be Built by Retail Alone, But Through Local Trust Networks</title>
<link>https://en.newsbolt.in/indias-next-big-distribution-network-may-not-be-built-by-retail-alone-but-through-local-trust-networks</link>

<description><![CDATA[  

Gurgaon, India, May 27 2026 : In India&#039;s service economy, the
hardest problem is no longer building the product. It is building reach.

Over the last decade, digital platforms have solved for discovery,
transactions and scale. But when it comes to delivering real-world services,
especially in moments that matter, distribution still determines experience.

Whether it is financial services, healthcare access, mobility
support or device protection, the real differentiator is increasingly not what
is offered, but how quickly and reliably it can reach the customer.

This is where India presents a unique challenge.

The country is not a single market. It is a network of
micro-markets, each with its own infrastructure gaps, trust dynamics and access
points. While digital penetration has grown significantly, the last mile still
depends heavily on physical networks that people already trust.

Over the last few years, multiple industries have quietly adapted
to this reality. FMCG companies have deepened rural penetration through
neighbourhood retail. Assisted commerce platforms have built scale by working
with local agents. Payment and banking ecosystems have expanded by embedding
themselves within kirana networks.

The takeaway is becoming clearer: distribution in India is no
longer just about reach. It is about relevance within local ecosystems.

This shift is particularly visible in the protection and incident
response ecosystem, where accessibility and response time directly shape
customer experience.

When a vehicle breaks down in a Tier-3 town, when a traveller
requires urgent coordination, or when a household appliance fails, the customer
is not evaluating the platform&#039;s brand or interface. The only question that
matters is whether help can be activated quickly and reliably.

This is where distributed partner ecosystems are becoming critical.

The quality of those partners, however, is what separates
functional reach from meaningful reach. The principle of KYP, Know Your
Distribution Partner is emerging as a foundational discipline for companies
operating in this space. A distribution partner not only determines whether a
service reaches the right place, they directly shape the end consumer&#039;s
experience and satisfaction. In a trust-sensitive market like India, a weak
link in the distribution chain is not just an operational failure but it is a
brand failure.

Across Assist, a Gurgaon-based protection and incident response platform,
is building its model around this approach by combining digital systems with
deeply embedded local networks. Through partnerships with institutions such as
Airtel Payments Bank, the company is able to leverage extensive retailer
ecosystems and assisted commerce touchpoints to expand reach and accessibility.

These networks, estimated to span more than 10,000 touchpoints
nationwide, enable last-mile distribution in a way that traditional digital
channels cannot. They also create a layer of familiarity and trust that is
essential in markets where service adoption is still relationship-driven.

This is why partner selection is treated as a strategic function,
not a procurement exercise. Distribution selection criteria must be
well-defined, and the credibility of every partner, their track record,
operational reliability and local trust equity needs to be rigorously
evaluated. Scale built on the wrong partners is scale built on risk.

At the same time, Across Assist has developed a large service
partner ecosystem that enables support coverage across more than 90 percent of
Indian pin codes. Its network includes roadside support partners, hospitals,
repair technicians and emergency coordination teams, all connected through a
24x7 multilingual alarm centre designed to manage requests in real time.

The convergence of these two layers, digital orchestration and
physical distribution, is what is shaping the next phase of growth.

Neeraj Verma, Co-Founder and CEO of Across Assist, said, &quot;India&#039;s
scale cannot be solved through centralised systems alone. The real challenge is
not just building capability, but ensuring that capability is accessible at the
moment it is needed. What we are seeing is a shift from platform-led
distribution to network-led distribution, where local ecosystems play a
critical role in how services are delivered. The focus is on combining
technology with trusted on-ground networks to create a system that responds
reliably, no matter where the customer is.&quot;

The model reflects a broader evolution in India&#039;s service economy.

Companies are increasingly recognising that growth will not come
from expanding platforms alone, but from embedding themselves into networks
that already exist within communities. The ability to leverage these networks
effectively will determine how quickly services scale and how consistently they
are delivered.

As India&#039;s digital and physical ecosystems continue to converge,
the companies that will stand out are not just those with the largest
platforms, but those with the most resilient distribution systems.

Because in a country as large and complex as India, accessibility
is no longer a layer on top of the product.

It is the product itself.

<title>Skincare for Indian Skin: ORUM Emerges as a Modern Ingredient&#45;Focused Brand Offering Premium Results at Affordable Prices</title>
<link>https://en.newsbolt.in/skincare-for-indian-skin-orum-emerges-as-a-modern-ingredient-focused-brand-offering-premium-results-at-affordable-prices</link>
<guid>https://en.newsbolt.in/skincare-for-indian-skin-orum-emerges-as-a-modern-ingredient-focused-brand-offering-premium-results-at-affordable-prices</guid>
<description><![CDATA[ India,
May 2026: The Indian skincare market is witnessing a
major transformation as consumers increasingly shift toward ingredient-focused
and result-driven skincare products. Modern buyers are now prioritising
formulations, ingredient transparency, and long-term skin health over
traditional celebrity-driven marketing. This growing awareness has created
strong demand for effective and affordable skincare for Indian skin.

One
emerging brand gaining rapid attention in this category is ORUM, a modern
Indian skincare brand focused on combining premium active ingredients with
accessible pricing.

Founded
by 25-year-old MBA graduates Rohit Singla and Richa Singla, ORUM was
created with a clear vision — to make high-quality skincare for Indian skin
available to a wider audience without the premium price tag often associated
with active ingredient-based products.

Before
entering the skincare industry, Rohit Singla built strong expertise in
manufacturing and product development through his stationery manufacturing
business, Eduway. His experience in production, research, and quality control
played a key role in helping ORUM develop formulations designed to address real
customer concerns.

Co-founder
Richa Singla brings creative and branding expertise to the company. Her
understanding of consumer behaviour, design, and product presentation has
helped shape ORUM into a modern skincare brand focused on both product
performance and customer experience.

The
founders identified a major gap in the Indian skincare market — while active
ingredients such as niacinamide, rice water, ceramide complex, alpha arbutin,
retinol, and hyaluronic acid were becoming increasingly popular, many skincare
brands were selling these formulations at very high prices, making them
inaccessible for a large section of consumers.

This
realisation encouraged the founders to deeply research the skincare industry by
interacting with dermatologists, skincare manufacturers, and formulation
experts before officially launching ORUM on 15 January 2026.

ORUM
currently offers a growing range of skincare products, including face wash,
cleanser, toner, serum, sunscreen, under-eye cream, and moisturiser. These
products are specifically formulated for Indian climate conditions and common
skin concerns such as pigmentation, tanning, acne marks, uneven skin tone,
dryness, excess oil, visible pores, and dull skin.

The
brand focuses heavily on skincare for Indian skin by creating lightweight yet
effective formulations suitable for daily use in Indian weather conditions.

According
to the founders, ORUM has already received an overwhelmingly positive market
response within a short period of launch. The company claims its products have
gone out of stock twice due to increasing demand and strong customer
satisfaction.

Unlike
many brands that focus mainly on aggressive marketing, ORUM emphasises
continuous product improvement based on customer feedback and real user
experiences. This customer-first approach is helping the brand build trust
among modern skincare consumers who value transparency and visible results.

As
ingredient awareness continues to grow in India, ORUM aims to position itself
as a brand that bridges the gap between premium skincare quality and affordable
pricing.

The
company also plans to expand its portfolio with more concern-based skincare
ranges targeting different skin types, including oily, acne-prone, combination,
and dry skin categories.

With
increasing demand for effective skincare for Indian skin, ORUM represents a new
generation of Indian skincare brands focused on innovation, accessibility,
ingredient transparency, and real-world results.

<title>NutriMeow Enters the Indian Cat Food Market to Challenge the Gap Between Quality and Affordable Nutrition</title>
<link>https://en.newsbolt.in/nutrimeow-enters-the-indian-cat-food-market-to-challenge-the-gap-between-quality-and-affordable-nutrition</link>
<guid>https://en.newsbolt.in/nutrimeow-enters-the-indian-cat-food-market-to-challenge-the-gap-between-quality-and-affordable-nutrition</guid>
<description><![CDATA[ India’s
pet food industry is undergoing a significant transformation, driven by
changing consumer behaviour, rising urban pet parenthood, and increasing
awareness around animal nutrition. Yet, one challenge continues to define the
category: accessibility.

For
many years, feeding a cat in India has come with an element of compromise. At
one end of the market are expensive imported and premium cat foods. At the
other end are low-cost products built primarily around affordability, but at
the cost of quality and a cat’s long-term health. Surprisingly few brands have
been able to find a middle ground.

NutriMeow by NutriPet Foods, a
new entrant in the cat food category, has launched with the purpose of changing
that equation between the market and cat parents. 

India’s cat parents are
changing faster than the industry

According
to IMARC Group, India’s pet food market was valued at USD 2.52 billion in 2025,
and is projected to reach USD 4.60 billion by 2034. A large part of this growth
is being driven by urban households, where pet parenting is increasingly shaped
by awareness, convenience, and health-led decision making.

Within
this momentum, cat nutrition is quietly becoming a more defined and fast-evolving
segment — one where consumer expectations are rising faster than accessible,
quality options.

The future of feeding a
pet

Indian
consumers are reading ingredient labels more carefully, understanding the role
of protein in cat biology, recognising filler ingredients, and moving away from
the idea that pet food is simply about filling a bowl. They no longer see
‘healthy pet food’ as a luxury — it’s a basic right.

NutriMeow
is all set to own this space. The idea is simple: better cat nutrition cannot
exist only at the top end of the market. The real shift happens when higher
standards become part of everyday feeding itself. 

Daily feeding, done
right

NutriMeow’s
recipes are built around the fact that not all protein is nutritionally equal
for cats — the protein source and quality almost matters more than the
quantity.

While
most brands rely heavily on plant-based proteins like corn and soy to inflate
protein percentages and optimise formulation costs, they do not offer the same
biological value as animal meat-derived protein for cats. 

NutriMeow
sets the benchmark in delivering nutritionally relevant protein for cats, even
when entering the same price segment. The range, including dry kibble and wet
food, is made with zero corn or soy — instead, it has quality proteins from
animal meat for optimum digestion and absorption. No artificial preservatives,
synthetic colours, or added flavours, and starting at just ₹65 — NutriMeow
clearly owns the fact that upgrading to better nutrition every day should not
require paying a premium.

A massive market
opportunity 

Globally,
the cat food industry is already a massive business, expected to reach USD 50.3
billion by 2034 according to reports by IMARC Group. India clearly remains a
considerably underpenetrated market compared to mature pet care economies,
which is precisely why the growth potential is attracting attention.

What
makes the Indian space particularly interesting is that the next phase of
growth is unlikely to come only from ultra-premium products. It is expected to
come from scale — from brands capable of bringing better everyday nutrition
into households at practical price points.

That
is the whitespace NutriMeow by NutriPet Foods has already started to capture.

And
in a market where affordability still shapes most purchasing decisions, that
may ultimately become the category’s biggest disruption.

<title>Best Ways to Find Genuine Used Cars and Bikes Online Without Middleman</title>
<link>https://en.newsbolt.in/best-ways-to-find-genuine-used-cars-and-bikes-online-without-middleman</link>
<guid>https://en.newsbolt.in/best-ways-to-find-genuine-used-cars-and-bikes-online-without-middleman</guid>
<description><![CDATA[  

India’s used vehicle market has witnessed remarkable
growth over the last decade as more buyers look for affordable transportation
solutions through digital platforms. From entry-level commuters to premium
vehicle enthusiasts, online marketplaces have made it easier for users to
discover used cars and bikes from different cities and regions without
depending entirely on traditional dealerships.

At the same time, many buyers now prefer direct owner
vehicle platforms because they offer greater transparency, independent
communication, and reduced brokerage involvement. However, finding genuine used
vehicles online still requires careful research, verification, and responsible
decision-making.

As India’s digital mobility ecosystem continues
expanding, understanding how to safely identify trustworthy listings has become
increasingly important for online vehicle buyers.

Why More Buyers
Prefer Used Vehicles in India

The demand for second hand vehicles in India continues
growing due to economic practicality and changing mobility preferences. Many
buyers now consider used cars and bikes as sensible alternatives because they
offer lower upfront investment while still meeting transportation needs
effectively.

Several reasons are driving this trend:

●       
Rising
prices of new vehicles

●       
Increasing
insurance and fuel costs

●       
Expanding
urban commuting requirements

●       
Higher
demand for affordable mobility

●       
Improved
access to online vehicle platforms

Used bikes are especially popular among students and
delivery workers, while used cars remain attractive for families and first-time
buyers looking for cost-efficient transportation options.

This rising demand has encouraged the rapid expansion
of digital used vehicle marketplaces across India.

Start With Trusted
and Active Vehicle Platforms

One of the most important steps while searching for
used vehicles online is choosing platforms that regularly update listings and
support transparent communication systems.

Reliable digital marketplaces generally allow users to:

●       
View
multiple vehicle photos

●       
Check
pricing details

●       
Contact
owners directly

●       
Compare
nearby listings

●       
Access
vehicle specifications

●       
Explore
local vehicle availability

Platforms that support active user interaction and
direct communication often help buyers identify genuine sellers more
efficiently.

Many modern automobile ecosystems are also integrating
vehicle information services with used vehicle accessibility to improve user
convenience.

Carefully Study
Vehicle Listing Details

A genuine vehicle listing usually contains complete and
transparent information. Buyers should avoid rushing into deals based only on
attractive pricing or limited images.

Important details to examine include:

●       
Vehicle
model and manufacturing year

●       
Ownership
history

●       
Registration
details

●       
Insurance
validity

●       
Mileage
information

●       
Service
history

●       
Clear
vehicle photos

For example, a listing that includes multiple
real-world images, detailed maintenance information, and proper documentation
references generally appears more trustworthy than incomplete or vague
advertisements.

Well-maintained listings often indicate serious and
transparent sellers.

Compare Local
Market Pricing Before Finalizing

Price comparison is an essential part of identifying
genuine used vehicle opportunities. Buyers should always compare similar
vehicles across multiple listings to understand average market value before
negotiating.

Extremely low prices may sometimes indicate:

●       
Hidden
damage

●       
Pending
legal issues

●       
Fake
listings

●       
Poor
maintenance

●       
Incomplete
documentation

Reasonable pricing combined with transparent
communication usually reflects more reliable transactions.

Hyperlocal comparison is also useful because vehicle
prices may vary depending on city, condition, demand, and registration
location.

Taking time to study market patterns can help buyers
avoid impulsive decisions.

Always Verify
Vehicle Documents Properly

Document verification remains one of the most important
parts of any used vehicle transaction. Buyers should carefully inspect all
legal and ownership records before making payments.

Essential documents include:

●       
Registration
Certificate (RC)

●       
Insurance
papers

●       
Pollution
certificate

●       
Service
records

●       
Road
tax receipts

●       
Ownership
transfer history

Buyers should also verify that the engine number and
chassis number match official documents.

Incomplete paperwork or inconsistent ownership details
should be treated cautiously, especially during online transactions.

Proper documentation helps reduce legal complications
after purchase.

Inspect the Vehicle
Physically Before Payment

Online listings provide convenience, but physical
inspection remains necessary before finalizing any used vehicle purchase.

During inspection, buyers should check:

●       
Engine
performance

●       
Brake
condition

●       
Suspension
quality

●       
Tyre
wear

●       
Paint
consistency

●       
Electrical
systems

●       
Signs
of accident repair

A short test drive can also reveal important details
regarding handling, clutch performance, mileage behavior, and unusual
mechanical sounds.

For example, excessive smoke, unstable braking, or
uneven steering response may indicate hidden mechanical issues.

Professional mechanic inspection is often recommended
for higher-value vehicles.

Direct Owner
Communication Helps Improve Transparency

Many buyers now prefer direct owner-to-buyer platforms
because they allow open discussions without heavy dealership involvement.

Direct interaction helps buyers:

●       
Ask
detailed questions

●       
Understand
usage patterns

●       
Verify
maintenance history

●       
Discuss
ownership background

●       
Negotiate
pricing independently

This transparency-driven approach is becoming
increasingly popular in India’s digital vehicle ecosystem.

Direct communication also reduces dependency on brokers
and minimizes the risk of hidden commissions influencing transaction
discussions.

As online trust improves, more users are embracing
independent vehicle negotiations.

Hyperlocal Vehicle
Discovery Is Changing Online Search Behavior

India’s digital economy is increasingly moving toward
hyperlocal accessibility where users prefer nearby services and local
transactions.

This trend is strongly visible in the used vehicle
market because buyers now commonly search for:

●       
Nearby
bike sellers

●       
Local
used car listings

●       
Regional
vehicle marketplaces

●       
Faster
inspection opportunities

●       
Easier
ownership transfer processes

Hyperlocal platforms improve convenience by reducing
transportation challenges and simplifying physical verification.

Regional digital marketplaces are expected to continue
expanding as smartphone usage and internet accessibility grow further across
India.

Important Safety
Tips for Online Vehicle Buyers

Although digital marketplaces provide convenience,
buyers should still follow careful safety practices during vehicle
transactions.

Recommended precautions include:

●       
Avoid
large advance payments

●       
Meet
sellers in public locations

●       
Verify
identity details

●       
Inspect
documents carefully

●       
Use
secure payment methods

●       
Confirm
ownership before transfer

Suspicious urgency, unrealistic pricing, or refusal to
provide documents should always be treated as warning signs.

Safe and informed communication plays an important role
in preventing online fraud and transaction disputes.

India’s Digital
Used Vehicle Market Continues Expanding

The online used vehicle sector in India is projected to
grow steadily due to rising digital adoption and increasing mobility demand.

Approximate online used vehicle marketplace growth
trend in India:

2022 – 18%
2023 – 26%
2024 – 35%
2025 – 44%
2026 – 52% (Estimated)

This growth highlights how digital-first vehicle transactions
are gradually becoming mainstream mobility solutions across the country.

As users become more comfortable with online discovery
and direct communication systems, independent used vehicle transactions are
expected to increase further.

The Changing Nature
of Automobile Platforms

The modern automobile ecosystem is evolving beyond
traditional vehicle reviews and launch coverage. Many digital automotive
platforms are gradually integrating:

●       
Used
vehicle accessibility

●       
Rental-focused
services

●       
Hyperlocal
vehicle discovery

●       
Direct
owner communication systems

This broader approach reflects changing consumer
expectations where users increasingly seek practical mobility services
alongside informational content.

One example is Meragadi.com, which combines automobile-related
updates with vehicle listing and rental-focused accessibility as part of
India’s expanding digital mobility ecosystem.

Conclusion

Finding genuine used cars and bikes online without
middleman involvement is becoming more achievable as digital vehicle ecosystems
continue maturing across India. Buyers today have greater access to
information, local listings, direct communication tools, and independent
comparison opportunities than ever before.

At the same time, the responsibility of verifying
documents, inspecting vehicles carefully, and communicating transparently still
remains essential for safe transactions. The future of India’s used vehicle
market will likely depend not only on technological growth, but also on how
effectively digital platforms can build trust, accountability, and informed
decision-making among everyday users.

<description><![CDATA[ Chennai,
India — 27th May, 2026 : IndiaFilings.com, a platform owned &amp;
operated by EQL AI Limited, has announced the launch of its Agentic AI Platform
to help entrepreneurs, startups, and small businesses with business
registration, trademark filing, tax filing, and related compliance services.

The
new platform brings together AI-powered workflows, structured compliance
processes, LEDGERS.cloud accounting and tax capabilities, expert review, and
professional execution support. It is designed to make key business compliance
services simpler, faster, and more accessible for entrepreneurs and SMEs.

Business
registration, trademark filing, and tax filing are important requirements for
businesses at different stages of their growth. However, these processes often
involve multiple forms, documentation requirements, government portals,
regulatory checks, accounting records, tax calculations, and follow-up actions.
IndiaFilings’ Agentic AI Platform - Powered by LEDGERS is built to guide
businesses through these requirements while enabling professional teams to
review, validate, and execute filings where required.

The
launch marks an important step in EQL AI Limited’s broader vision of building
the AI operating layer for business compliance, accounting, tax, and filings
across jurisdictions.

EQL
AI Limited operates and is building platforms including IndiaFilings.com,
Filings.ae, LEDGERS.cloud, and Filings.us. Through these platforms, the company
is focused on delivering AI-powered, expert-reviewed compliance services for
entrepreneurs, SMEs, accountants, tax professionals, and business advisors
across India, UAE, US, and other global markets.

From Business
Registration to Ongoing Compliance

IndiaFilings’
Agentic AI Platform is designed to support businesses from incorporation and
brand protection to ongoing accounting, tax filing, and compliance management.

By
integrating IndiaFilings’ services with LEDGERS.cloud, the platform can support
a broader compliance journey from registering a business and filing trademarks
to maintaining books of account, preparing tax data, managing filings, and
tracking compliance obligations.

This
approach reflects a wider shift in the compliance industry. As regulatory
processes become increasingly digital, businesses need systems that can combine
automation, data, workflows, and human expertise. For SMEs, the need is not
just software access or an AI platform, but reliable compliance outcomes.

AI
Plus Experts, Not AI Replacing Professionals

IndiaFilings
has positioned the platform around an AI-plus-experts model. The company said
the objective is not to replace accountants, company secretaries, lawyers, tax
professionals, or compliance advisors, but to enable better execution through
agentic-AI workflows and structured review systems.

For
entrepreneurs and SMEs, this means a simpler and faster experience. For accountants
and professionals, it creates an opportunity to use agentic-AI workflows, cloud
accounting systems, and back-office support to manage higher volumes of work,
improve turnaround times, reduce repetitive tasks, and focus more on judgment,
advisory, and execution quality.

“The
future of compliance is not AI alone, and it is not manual services alone. It
is AI plus experts,” said Lionel Charles, Founder of EQL AI Limited.
“With IndiaFilings and LEDGERS.cloud, we are building an agentic-AI, expert-reviewed
platform that helps businesses move from registration to tax filing and ongoing
compliance with greater clarity and confidence. 

Our
goal is to make compliance simpler for businesses, while enabling accountants
and professionals with better workflows, automation, and execution support.”

Global Compliance,
Localized Execution

While
IndiaFilings is focused on India, EQL AI Limited’s broader platform strategy
extends across multiple jurisdictions. The company is building platforms and
services for India, UAE, US, and other global markets, while adapting to each
country’s local rules, filings, taxes, and business requirements.

EQL
AI aims to build technology that can scale globally while retaining the
professional oversight and local compliance knowledge required in each market.
Through IndiaFilings.com, Filings.ae, Filings.us, and LEDGERS.cloud, the
company is building a global, connected compliance and accounting ecosystem. 

Improving
Ease of Doing Business

Entrepreneurs
and small businesses often face compliance complexity from the moment they
start. Choosing the right business structure, registering a company, protecting
a brand name, maintaining accounts, preparing tax filings, handling payroll,
and meeting recurring regulatory obligations can become challenging without
structured support.

IndiaFilings’
Agentic AI Platform seeks to reduce this friction by making compliance more
guided, transparent, and affordable. By combining AI-powered workflows with
expert-backed execution, IndiaFilings aims to help businesses move from
formation to financial and regulatory compliance with greater confidence.

<description><![CDATA[ Mumbai,
27th May, 2026: Gandhar Oil Refinery (India) Ltd a leading
manufacturer of white oils by revenue, engaged in producing Pharmaceutical,
Health Care, and Performance Oil (PHPO), Process Insulating Oil (PIO) and
Lubricants, has announced its Financial Results for the quarter and full year
ended March 31, 2026.

Key
Highlights of the Results: 

●       
Consolidated Manufacturing Sales Volumes for
FY26 stood at 5,45,755 KL, up by 9% from 5,00,231 KL in FY25 

●       
Consolidated Revenues for the Q4FY26 at Rs
1,093.4 Cr compared to Rs 961.7 Cr in Q4FY25, while for FY26, it stood at Rs
4,241.2 compared to Rs 3,896.9 Cr in FY25 

●       
Consolidated EBITDA for Q4FY26 stood at Rs
63.6 Cr, up by 88% from Rs 33.6 Cr in Q4FY25. EBITDA for FY26 stood at Rs 234.5
Cr, compared to Rs 175.6 Cr in FY25 

●       
Consolidated PAT for Q4FY26 stood at Rs 37 Cr,
up by 201% from Rs 12.3 Cr in Q4FY25, while for FY26 stood at Rs 137.2 Cr
compared to Rs 83.5 Cr in FY25 

●       
For FY26, the consolidated revenue breakdown
is as follows: PHPO leads with 48%, Lubricants account for 27%, Channel
Partners contribute 14.81% and PIO represents 10.19%

Commenting
on the Results, Aslesh Parekh, Joint Managing Director said, “We
delivered a strong close to FY26, supported by sustained momentum in domestic
demand and a continued strategic focus on higher-margin PHPO products. This
performance was achieved despite a challenging global environment characterized
by macroeconomic pressures, ongoing logistical constraints, and volatility
arising from the Middle East geopolitical situation, including the temporary
closure of the Strait of Hormuz, which led to a sharp increase in oil prices.
Notwithstanding these headwinds, we recorded robust performance across all
parameters. In the fourth quarter of FY26, revenue stood at Rs 1,093 crore,
reflecting a year-on-year increase of 14%. Operational profitability remained
robust, with EBITDA rising by 88% to Rs 64 crore, while profit after tax (PAT)
grew by 201% to Rs 37 crore, supported by a favorable product mix and improved
operating efficiencies. For the full year, revenue reached Rs 4,241 crore, with
EBITDA of Rs 234 crore. This growth was underpinned by manufacturing sales
volumes of 5,45,755 KL, representing a 9% increase over the previous year. The
PHPO segment continued to be the primary growth driver, contributing 48% of
total revenue, driven by strong demand from the personal care and healthcare
sectors. Looking ahead, the domestic demand environment remains encouraging.
Additionally, the anticipated easing of international logistical constraints,
along with stabilizing input costs, is expected to further support business
momentum. This provides us with confidence in our near- to medium-term growth
outlook but we continue to remain cautious and watchful.”

<guid>https://en.newsbolt.in/navbharat-niwas-sees-strong-buyer-participation-at-rajasthan-projects-event-in-noida</guid>
<description><![CDATA[  

Noida : Navbharat Niwas Private Limited organized a ceremony for allotment
of customers for its planned townships projects of Rajasthan, receiving a
participation of almost 150 customers and investors from Delhi-NCR region and
nearby areas.

The ceremony was held at Fortune Hotel by
ITC and included customers who had purchased projects from the company —
Navbharat Shivani Vatika 11th and Navbharat Shivani Residency. Allotment
formalities were carried out and customers got an opportunity to discuss
matters with the founders and management of the company.

As per the company, the ceremony showed
increasing interest of investors in infrastructure driven real estate
destinations in Rajasthan, particularly in Jaipur region and industrial
corridors nearby.

Both the projects of the company have been
getting buyers as a result of their proximity to important infrastructure
developments such as the Delhi-Mumbai Industrial Corridor (DMIC), RIICO
industrial zones, proposed expressway and other urban development projects of
the government.

Navbharat Shivani Vatika 11th is located
near Renwal on Jaipur-Khatu Highway. The project is located very close to
Kotputli-Kishangarh Greenfield Expressway and industrial zones like Kaladar,
Manda and Renwal RIICO zones. It is an already constructed ready to move
plotted township with road connectivity, power infrastructure, parks and gated
entry provision.

On the other hand, Navbharat Shivani
Residency in Phulera is being constructed as per the Master Plan 2031 of the
government. As per the company, increasing number of buyers have shown interest
in this project owing to its proximity to Mahindra World City, rail
connectivity, industrial zones and highways.

The company chose to host the event under
the leadership of its founders and management team, keeping the gathering
customer-focused and reinforcing its belief that long-term relationships and
trust remain central to its growth journey. Founded by Prince Dhariwal and
Gaurav Gupta along with co-founders Rohit Nayan, Anirudh Dedha and Shivam
Verma, Navbharat Niwas has been steadily expanding its presence across
Rajasthan, Uttar Pradesh and Uttarakhand in the plotted development, township
and resort segment.

Speaking at the event, Founder
&amp; Director Prince Dhariwal said, “At Navbharat Niwas, we
believe trust is built through actions and long-term relationships. This
allotment ceremony was an opportunity for us to personally engage with our
customers and strengthen the confidence they place in us. Our focus has always
been on transparency, commitment and creating secure investment opportunities
for every buyer.” He further added, “We are witnessing increasing
interest from investors looking at infrastructure-led growth corridors across
Rajasthan. Through our projects, we aim to provide not just property ownership,
but long-term value and peace of mind to our customers.”

 With a growing customer base of more
than 3,000 clients, the company continues to focus on infrastructure-linked
developments, transparent dealings and timely project execution across emerging
real estate destinations in North India.

<title>Indian Creator Annisha Garg Makes a Dreamy Statement at Cannes in White Pearls</title>

<description><![CDATA[ Cannes 26th May, 2026 : At Cannes, where extravagance
competes for every glance, Annisha Garg chose stillness.

When Annisha Garg stepped onto the Cannes shoreline in a
white pearl-and-floral ensemble by Rimzim Dadu, it wasn&#039;t just a fashion
moment. It was a feeling, long held, finally released.

The look was everything quiet luxury should be. A structured
bralette and a floor-length skirt, hand-sewn with Rimzim Dadu&#039;s signature cord
technique, each strand moving like a feather in the sea breeze. Pearls and
white florals layered through the silhouette, chosen not for aesthetics, but
for meaning. Every detail was a quiet tribute to Guruji, her faith woven
literally into the fabric. Weightless yet architectural, the ensemble felt like
something between a garment and a prayer.

And it was. For an entire year.

&quot;One of the looks, made with pearls and white flowers,
reflected my faith towards my Guru Ji, my emotions, and the vision I had held
onto for so long,&quot; Annisha shares.

This was that vision. A recreation of a pearl-inspired look
she had carried through 2025, a year that tested her. The look never made it to
Cannes then. But she never let it go either.

&quot;After everything that happened in 2025, I couldn&#039;t let
that dream remain unseen forever,&quot; she says. &quot;I truly felt its
purpose still had to be fulfilled at Cannes.&quot;

So she came back. Quieter, clearer, more herself. And she wore
the look that waited. Styled with soft cascading waves, luminous barely there
skin, and an almost deliberate absence of excess, the beauty look mirrored the
garment perfectly. Nothing competed. Everything belonged.

In an era when Cannes fashion chases spectacle, Annisha&#039;s
moment stood apart because it meant something. Faith, resilience, and the kind
of beauty that only arrives after patience.

&quot;For me, Cannes is no longer just about fashion or the
red carpet,&quot; she reflects. &quot;It&#039;s a reminder that sometimes life says
&#039;not yet&#039; before it finally says &#039;yes.&#039;&quot; ]]></description>

<title>India’s Corporate Bond Market at an Inflection Point: Opportunities for Retail Investors in 2026</title>
<link>https://en.newsbolt.in/indias-corporate-bond-market-at-an-inflection-point-opportunities-for-retail-investors-in-2026</link>
<guid>https://en.newsbolt.in/indias-corporate-bond-market-at-an-inflection-point-opportunities-for-retail-investors-in-2026</guid>
<description><![CDATA[ Mumbai :   India’s corporate
bond market is gradually seeing more participation from retail investors in
2026. Earlier, this market was mainly dominated by institutions, banks, and
large financial investors across the country.

This trend has changed slowly over the
last few years because access to bonds has improved. Digital investment
platforms, lower investment amounts, and better awareness have made bond
investing easier for individuals.

At the same time, changing interest rates
have increased attention towards fixed-income investment products among
investors. More people are now comparing corporate bonds with fixed deposits
and other traditional investment options regularly.

The Big Picture: A Market Crossing
Thresholds

India’s corporate bond market is moving
towards wider participation and stronger overall market activity in 2026.
Retail investors are now entering a market that was earlier considered
difficult and less accessible for individuals.

Companies are also increasingly using corporate bonds to
raise funds for business expansion and operations. This has improved activity
levels across the market and increased investor interest in fixed-income
products.

How It Was: The Closed Club Era

For many years, India’s corporate bond
market remained concentrated among institutions and large financial investors
only. Retail participation was limited because access, pricing information and
liquidity were not easily available earlier.

One major challenge was the high minimum
investment amount required for many corporate bond investments. Earlier,
several bonds required investments of ₹10 lakh or more from investors before
participation became possible.

Bond investing also appeared complex
because many investors were unfamiliar with financial terms used regularly.
Concepts like yields, credit ratings, maturity periods and duration created
confusion among first-time retail investors.

Large credit events involving companies
such as IL&amp;FS and DHFL also affected investor confidence significantly
across India’s debt mutual fund and corporate bond markets. These incidents
increased caution among retail investors who preferred relatively less volatile
and more familiar investment products earlier.

Tax treatment also remained an important
factor while comparing bonds with other investment products available in
markets.

Record Issuances: The Numbers That Signal
Change

Corporate bond activity has increased
steadily during the last few years across several important business sectors.
In FY 25, 1924 companies issued bonds, which was 1659 last financial year. Strong
investor participation, improved market depth, and steady fundraising activity
are expected to support this expansion. 

According to CRISIL Ratings, India’s
corporate bond market is projected to nearly double and reach around ₹100
trillion by FY2030, highlighting strong long-term expansion potential. This
growth outlook reflects increasing reliance on bond markets as a key source of
corporate financing across sectors. 

The projection also indicates a
structural shift in India’s financial system, where corporate bonds are likely
to play a more significant role in meeting long-term funding requirements.

The Rate Cycle: Why Now Is the Window

Interest rate conditions are also
influencing investor behaviour across fixed-income products during 2026
significantly. Many investors are now reviewing bond opportunities more
actively as market interest rates continue changing regularly.

Changes in RBI policy rates directly
affect borrowing costs and corporate bond yield movements within India’s debt
market. Investors are now comparing different bond categories more carefully
while evaluating risk and expected investment returns.

Some corporate bonds are also offering
comparatively higher yields than traditional fixed deposits offered by banks.
This has increased interest among investors seeking fixed-income alternatives
with potentially better return opportunities available. 

This happened despite the Reserve Bank of
India&#039;s 2025 cumulative repo rate reductions of 125 basis points. During the
February policy review, however, the RBI didn’t change the benchmark repo rate
of 5.25%. Nonetheless, as of 21st May 2026, the 10-year Government Securities
(G-Sec) yield are still high at roughly 7.10%. Whereas, corporate bonds
continue to offer yields ranging from nearly 7% to as high as 14%, depending on
the issuer&#039;s credit rating and risk profile.

Global Integration: The FPI Catalyst

India’s bond market is also receiving
increased attention from international investors and global financial
institutions recently. Foreign participation is gradually increasing as India’s
market infrastructure and accessibility continue improving steadily across
sectors.

Discussions around global bond index
inclusion have also increased visibility for India’s debt market
internationally. International providers such as JP Morgan, Bloomberg and FTSE
are monitoring India’s fixed-income market developments closely.

Higher foreign participation may
gradually improve market liquidity and support stronger trading activity across
bond markets. Better participation levels may also improve transparency and
price discovery across different bond categories over time.

The Turning Point: Reforms That Opened
the Gates

Several regulatory reforms have improved
accessibility for retail investors across India’s bond market over recent
years. Digital systems and policy changes have made bond investing simpler and
more accessible for individual investors.

The RBI Retail Direct platform created
easier access for individuals interested in fixed-income investment opportunities
directly. This became one of the early steps towards increasing retail
participation across India’s debt investment ecosystem.

SEBI’s Online Bond Platform Provider
framework also improved access to listed corporate bonds through digital
platforms. Investors can now compare bond options online and review important
information before making investment decisions.

Another major change involved reducing
minimum investment requirements across different bond investment categories
significantly over time. [AR1] Earlier,
investors typically needed ₹1 lakh to participate, but entry barriers have now
reduced significantly, with options widely available from as low as ₹10,000.

This has made bond investing more
practical and accessible for a larger number of retail investors.

Why Retail Is Participating Now: The
2025–2026 Catalyst Cocktail

Retail participation in India’s corporate
bond market is increasing steadily during 2025 and 2026 across investor
categories. Better technology, easier accessibility and changing investment
preferences are supporting this growing participation trend.

Younger investors are now exploring
products beyond savings accounts and traditional fixed deposit investment
options regularly. Digital platforms have simplified onboarding, bond discovery,
and investment tracking processes for first-time retail investors
significantly.

Many investors are also comparing
corporate bond yields with fixed deposit returns more actively than earlier.
The growth of Demat accounts has further improved accessibility by allowing
investors to hold bonds alongside equities and mutual funds easily.

Retail&#039;s Growing Footprint

Retail participation is increasing
steadily across different investor categories and geographic regions throughout
the country recently. More investors are now becoming familiar with bond
investing concepts and fixed-income investment opportunities available online.

Participation is also increasing beyond
major metro cities because digital investment access has improved
significantly. Investors from Tier-2 and Tier-3 cities are increasingly
participating in fixed-income investment opportunities through online
platforms.

Risks Every Retail Investor Must
Understand

Even though accessibility has improved,
corporate bonds still involve risks that investors should understand carefully
before investing. Proper risk assessment remains important while selecting
fixed-income products across different bond categories and issuers.

·      
Higher-yield bonds may also involve
higher repayment often carrying elevated credit risk, where the possibility of
delayed payments or defaults may be relatively higher compared to top-rated issuers.

·      
Some bonds may have limited secondary market
activity compared to equities, which can restrict early exit opportunities for
investors, and the interest earned on most corporate bonds is taxed according
to the investor&#039;s income tax slab.

·      
Diversification remains important because
concentrating on investments within one issuer may increase overall portfolio
risk exposure significantly. 

·      
Tax treatment also continues influencing
investor decisions across fixed-income investment products available within
financial markets currently.

The Road Ahead: What to Watch in
2026–2027

Digital investment systems and market
infrastructure are expected to improve further for retail investors. This may
help retail investors participate more comfortably within India’s corporate
bond investment ecosystem over time.

Technology-driven platforms may improve
accessibility and ease of investing for investors. Digital investment
infrastructure is expected to continue expanding steadily across India’s
broader financial ecosystem in the coming years.

Better transparency and real-time credit
monitoring systems may also improve investor confidence gradually across debt
markets. Municipal bonds and green bonds are also receiving increasing
attention across India’s fixed-income investment market recently. 

The Decade Belongs to the Bond Investor

India’s corporate bond market is
gradually becoming broader and more accessible for retail investors across the
country. Rising participation, regulatory reforms and digital accessibility are
contributing towards stronger activity across India’s fixed-income market
ecosystem.

As accessibility improves further,
corporate bonds may continue to become an important investment category for
retail investors.

<description><![CDATA[  NEW DELHI :
Oasis Group on Friday announced the launch of AAGHAAZ Indian Artisan Single
Malt Whisky as part of its premiumisation strategy aimed at strengthening its
presence in India’s growing luxury spirits segment.

The launch marks the
Group’s entry into the premium Indian single malt category at a time when
Indian spirits are witnessing rising domestic demand and increasing
international recognition.

Founded in 1987, Oasis
Group currently operates eight distilleries and 14 bottling units across India.
The company said its flagship brand, All Seasons Whisky, has crossed 21 million
cumulative global cases.

The Group also produces
nearly 360 million litres of ethanol annually to support beverage alcohol
production as well as industrial requirements.

“With AAGHAAZ, Oasis Group begins a new chapter
in premium Indian whisky-making. This launch reflects our commitment to
creating world-class spirits that combine Indian craftsmanship, authenticity
and contemporary luxury,” Chairman Deep Malhotra said.

“We remain focused on
building globally competitive premium spirits originating from India while
strengthening the country’s position in the evolving global premium spirits
landscape,” he added.

According to the
company, the single malt is produced using Indian six-row barley sourced from
Rajasthan, Uttar Pradesh, Madhya Pradesh, Punjab, Haryana and the Himalayan
foothills. The spirit is distilled in traditional copper pot stills and matured
in bourbon and oak casks in the Shivalik foothills.

The company said the
whisky has also received recognition at the Monde Selection Awards 2026.

The whisky offers aromas
of tropical fruits, vanilla, honey sweetness and subtle peat on the nose, while
the palate delivers notes of sweet fruit, warm spices, oak and dried fruits.
The finish is described as long, balanced and warming with soft peat and gentle
sweetness.

Led by Chairman Deep
Malhotra and Directors Gauravh Malhotra and Gautam Malhotra, the Group reported
an annual turnover of around ₹3,500 crore and is targeting revenue of ₹5,700
crore by March 2028 through premium portfolio expansion, operational growth and
international market development.

The company said it is
expanding its international footprint across Europe, North America, the UAE,
Africa and Southeast Asia, while preparing additional premium launches in
Indian single malts, luxury vodka, artisan vodka and Caribbean rum categories.

slow-burn emotional romance that reflects on second chances, emotional healing,
and the transformative power of love. The story culminates at the very sea that
once defined loss for Rana — becoming the place where truth, healing, and love
finally return.

 

Speaking about the book, Harihara Arun
Somasankar G said:

 

“Finally Us is not merely a love
story. It is about emotional survival, silent battles, and the hope that love
can still find us even after life changes us completely.”

Arun Somasankar G currently
practices as an International Lawyer and has previously served as Government
Advocate (Prosecutor) for the State of Tamil Nadu. Over the years, Harihara

matters and has been associated with legal advisory work connected to






international criminal law. The

of ILS Law College, Pune, Harihara Arun Somasankar G has also pursued
advanced legal and international academic programs associated with institutions
including Stanford University, the University of Oxford, and Cardiff
University. Alongside notable legal achievements, Harihara Arun Somasankar G
has authored works such as Earthman: The Defender of the World and My
Little Princess, reflecting a diverse literary voice and creative depth.

<title>Poonam Panddey Leaves Theatre Audience Speechless And Nobody Saw It Coming</title>
<link>https://en.newsbolt.in/poonam-panddey-leaves-theatre-audience-speechless-and-nobody-saw-it-coming</link>
<guid>https://en.newsbolt.in/poonam-panddey-leaves-theatre-audience-speechless-and-nobody-saw-it-coming</guid>
<description><![CDATA[  

There’s a particular kind of silence that
falls over a theatre when something real is happening on stage. Not the polite
silence of an audience waiting for the next scene. The other kind. The
held-breath kind.

That silence happened multiple times during
Poonam Panddey’s debut performance in Kali Salwar and the people in that room
are still talking about it.

Director Atul Satya Koushik’s staging of
Saadat Hasan Manto’s iconic story was already anticipated. Manto adaptations
carry weight. They attract serious theatre crowds, people who’ve seen a hundred
productions and will quietly dissect yours over chai afterward. These are not
easy audiences to impress.

Poonam impressed them.

What nobody quite expected was how unshowy
she was. Screen actors stepping onto stage for the first time tend to
compensate bigger gestures, louder voices, filling the space the way they
imagine it needs to be filled. Poonam did the opposite. She got still. She got
specific. And somehow that stillness filled the entire room.

Manto’s women are not simple creatures.
They carry histories in their eyes, contradictions in their posture, whole
worlds of unsaid things in a single exhale. Playing them requires an actor
willing to be exposed not performed, not presented, but genuinely exposed.

Poonam was exposed up there. In the best
possible way.

Her dialogue delivery had texture. The
vulnerability in one line, the quiet defiance underneath it, the way grief and
humor live side by side in Manto’s writing she found all of it. Not perfectly,
because perfection isn’t the point with Manto. Truthfully. And truth on a live
stage, in real time, in front of strangers, is its own kind of courage.

By the end of the evening, the conversation
in the lobby wasn’t about surprise or novelty. It was about performance. Pure,
undeniable performance.

Poonam Panddey came to theatre. Theatre, it
turns out, was waiting for her.

<description><![CDATA[ NEW DELHI / May 25, 2026: Social
activist and NRI Congress chairman from Rottan Wali village honoured for
sustained contributions to youth empowerment and cross-border community service

Gurjinder
Singh Gavy, a social activist and
youth leader from Rottan Wali village in Sadulsahar, Sri Ganganagar district of
Rajasthan, has received the 2026 Global Recognition Award in the Service
category, an international honour acknowledging his sustained work in youth
development, overseas community engagement, and empowerment of underrepresented
groups.

Gavy
has recently been appointed Chairman, NRI and Overseas Congress Cell, Rajasthan
Pradesh Congress Committee (RPCC), a position that focuses on strengthening
institutional and cultural ties between Rajasthan and its worldwide diaspora.
He concurrently serves as National President of the Indian Overseas Youth
Congress Australia and President of the Student Union India–Australia, where he
leads initiatives for students, young professionals, and overseas Indian
communities across both nations.

A
significant milestone in Gavy&#039;s journey has been the global publication of his
book, Youth Legacy: Fire That Builds the Nation. The work articulates
his vision for youth leadership, national development, and the transformative
role of community service in shaping future leaders. The book has been released
internationally and is aimed at inspiring young people across borders to
embrace civic responsibility and social purpose.

Starting
from grassroots community efforts in his home village, Gavy has built an
international platform that spans India and Australia. His work encompasses
student assistance programmes, youth leadership forums, social welfare
initiatives, food support drives, and broader community development activities
designed to bridge the gap between rural origins and global opportunity.

“Every young person, regardless of where they come from, carries
within them the potential to lead, to serve, and to transform their community.
This recognition only deepens my commitment to that mission,” said Gavy.

Through
his leadership roles, published work, and social initiatives, Gavy continues to
expand a global mission centred on youth empowerment, international
cooperation, and meaningful service. His trajectory from a small village in
Rajasthan to international platforms is widely regarded as reflective of the
growing influence of India&#039;s overseas youth in shaping global discourse on
community development and civic leadership.

<title>Everyday glamour takes centre stage in Myntra’s EORS 2026 non&#45;metro campaign with Tripti Dimri</title>
<link>https://en.newsbolt.in/everyday-glamour-takes-centre-stage-in-myntras-eors-2026-non-metro-campaign-with-tripti-dimri</link>
<guid>https://en.newsbolt.in/everyday-glamour-takes-centre-stage-in-myntras-eors-2026-non-metro-campaign-with-tripti-dimri</guid>
<description><![CDATA[ ●       
The EORS campaign centers on the idea of
staying stylish in every situation, bringing sought-after styles to shoppers in
both metros and non-metros. 

Bengaluru :
Myntra&#039;s End of Reason Sale (EORS) returns with its latest edition -
one that focuses on redefining what fashion and self-expression mean for India.
With the latest edition, Myntra is making 6 million+ styles from top fashion
and international beauty brands available, ensuring that the best of fashion is
accessible to everyone. The event begins on 29th May, with early access for VIP
customers beginning on 28th May.

At the heart of this
edition is a simple but powerful belief: great style has no geography. Whether
you&#039;re in Mumbai or Mysuru, Delhi or Dimapur, EORS is built to bring India&#039;s
most sought-after fashion, lifestyle, and beauty brands within reach - at value
that makes the decision easy. 

To bring this
proposition to life, Myntra has launched two new campaign films featuring
actress Tripti Dimri. Taking a playful, humour-led approach, the films
use exaggerated, larger-than-life situations, from an eye clinic to a skydiving
plane, to show it is possible to show up stylishly, anywhere and at any
occasion. Tripti&#039;s fashion-forward presence anchors the message that EORS is
where aspiration meets accessibility, for every shopper in India.

Speaking on the
campaign, Neha Gulati, Senior Director, Brand Marketing, Myntra, said,
“With EORS 24, our focus is to strengthen the excitement of discovery and value
for customers across fashion, beauty, and lifestyle. With these films, we
wanted to take a simple insight, that style today is not limited to occasions,
and bring it alive through humorous, unexpected scenarios. Tripti was a natural
fit for the campaign, given her strong fashion appeal and effortless screen
presence among young, style-forward audiences. Her presence helps make the
films playful, memorable, and closely aligned with the energy of EORS.” 

Speaking on her
association with Myntra’s EORS campaign, Tripti Dimri said,
“I had a lot of fun shooting these films because they take everyday situations
and give them a stylish, unexpected twist. The humour is simple, fresh, and
instantly relatable, with EORS’ compelling propositions woven into the films
effortlessly. Whether it is fashion or beauty, the campaign captures the joy of
finding more of what you love on Myntra in a way that feels playful and
memorable.”

About the films:

●       
The first film opens in an eye clinic, where a
doctor is conducting an eye test against a LogMAR chart as mirror-like light
spots reflect across the room. The source of the glare is soon revealed to be
Tripti, dressed in a striking Indian outfit with intricate mirror work. When
the doctor questions the need for so much style at a clinic, Tripti points to
Myntra EORS, highlighting top fashion brands available at Myntra Minimum Prices
and closes the moment with, “clinic ho ya picnic, hamesha style mein rehne
ka.”

●       
The second film opens with a skydiving
instructor preparing the group for a jump. Just as he begins the countdown,
Tripti interrupts him, calmly flipping her hair in slow motion before pulling
out a compact to retouch her makeup. When the instructor questions the need for
style while skydiving, Tripti brings in the EORS proposition, highlighting that
international beauty brands are now available at ‘Myntra Minimum Prices’. She
then lands the playful line, “diving ho ya driving, hamesha style mein rehne
ka,” before jumping out of the plane. 

Together, the films
build excitement for the Myntra End of Reason Sale, starting 29th May, inviting
consumers to explore top fashion and international beauty brands at Myntra
Minimum Prices.

<description><![CDATA[ The
red carpet at the Cannes Film Festival 2026 has long celebrated cinema,
glamour, and global culture. This year, Indian entrepreneur Mohini Sharma
brought something far more meaningful to the international stage a powerful
conversation around sustainability, conscious luxury, and modern Indian
representation.

Appearing
in an ocean-inspired couture ensemble crafted from recycled ocean plastic
waste, Mohini Sharma made a striking statement at Cannes 2026 while
spotlighting the urgent need for environmental awareness and responsible
fashion. Inspired by the fluidity, beauty, and resilience of the ocean, her
look merged contemporary couture with purpose-driven storytelling, reflecting
the growing evolution of luxury fashion towards sustainability and mindful design.

Mohini
Sharma, founder of Mrs India Inc and Femm International, returned to Cannes
with a larger vision this year  one that
placed Indian women, entrepreneurship, and cultural influence firmly within the
global spotlight.

Over
the years, she has created platforms that celebrated empowerment, international
representation, and modern Indian identity, consistently using fashion and
global events as mediums for impactful storytelling. Her Cannes appearance
further reflected the growing presence of Indian entrepreneurs on influential
international platforms beyond traditional business spaces.

This
year’s Cannes appearance revolved around the theme of “Ocean” a symbolic
creative direction highlighting both the magnificence of marine life and the
urgent global conversation around ocean plastic waste. By transforming recycled
plastic into couture showcased on one of the world’s most photographed red
carpets, Mohini Sharma demonstrated that sustainability and high fashion could
coexist powerfully on the global stage.

Beyond
the red carpet, under Femm International, Mohini Sharma also led a curated
delegation of accomplished Indian women to Cannes this year, including
entrepreneurs, titleholders, and changemakers, further strengthening India’s
growing cultural and entrepreneurial presence at the festival.

As
international media, fashion houses, filmmakers, entrepreneurs, and cultural
icons gathered at Cannes, Mohini Sharma’s appearance marked a defining moment
for contemporary Indian representation one where fashion became a reflection of
purpose, influence, sustainability, and global storytelling. ]]></description>

<title>Realization India Highlights Why Predictable Project Execution Is Emerging as a Business Priority Across Industries</title>
<link>https://en.newsbolt.in/realization-india-highlights-why-predictable-project-execution-is-emerging-as-a-business-priority-across-industries</link>
<guid>https://en.newsbolt.in/realization-india-highlights-why-predictable-project-execution-is-emerging-as-a-business-priority-across-industries</guid>
<description><![CDATA[  

As Indian businesses continue investing in large-scale expansion
projects across manufacturing, infrastructure, logistics, healthcare and
industrial sectors, project execution is increasingly becoming a boardroom
concern rather than only an operational responsibility.

According to Realization
India, companies are now facing growing pressure to
complete capital projects with greater predictability as delays begin impacting
revenue timelines, market readiness and overall business performance.

Industry experts note that capital expenditure cycles are accelerating
across sectors, with organisations committing significant investments into new
plants, warehouses, facilities and operational expansions. However, alongside
this growth, companies are also encountering rising execution complexity
involving multiple contractors, suppliers, consultants and specialist agencies
working simultaneously within the same project ecosystem.

Growing Complexity in Large Capital Projects

Execution specialists at Realization India say one of the biggest
challenges in large projects is that every participating stakeholder operates
with separate commercial priorities and operational pressures.

Equipment suppliers often manage deliveries across multiple projects
at the same time, while contractors work to optimize billing cycles, workforce
utilisation and cash flow across different sites. Although these are standard
business realities, the coordination challenges emerge when project schedules
depend on all stakeholders moving in sync.

The company says many projects still operate through execution systems
heavily driven by activity tracking and deadline monitoring. While these
systems generate extensive reporting and visibility, they do not always ensure
smooth project flow or timely completion.

As projects become more complex, organisations often respond by
introducing additional review meetings, dashboards, revised schedules and
tighter monitoring mechanisms. However, industry observers believe that
excessive tracking alone cannot solve structural execution bottlenecks if
dependencies and sequencing issues remain unresolved.

Shift Towards Completion-Driven Execution

According to Realization India, businesses are increasingly
recognising the difference between visible activity and actual project
progress.

In many projects, work begins simultaneously across multiple fronts,
creating the appearance of momentum. However, incomplete handovers between
contractors and fragmented execution frequently slow down subsequent stages of
work. Civil structures may remain partially ready, utilities may not align with
installation schedules, or approvals may delay connected activities despite
visible progress on site.

The company says this often results in a growing volume of unfinished
work, repeated coordination cycles and schedule revisions across agencies.

Industry analysts believe this has led businesses to gradually shift
toward completion-oriented execution models where the focus is placed on stable
handovers, dependency management and uninterrupted workflow between project
stages.

Execution Reliability Becoming a Competitive Advantage

Another key challenge highlighted by execution experts is
accountability fragmentation during delays. In complex projects, setbacks are
rarely caused by a single issue. Delays in drawings, procurement, approvals or
site readiness can create ripple effects across multiple work packages, making
it difficult to isolate responsibility.

As a result, organisations may spend significant management bandwidth
on reviews, escalations and revised commitments without necessarily improving
execution reliability.

Executives at Realization
India believe companies are now beginning to view
project execution as a strategic business capability directly linked to
profitability, scalability and operational readiness.

With industries expanding aggressively and competition increasing
across sectors, predictable project delivery is emerging as an important
differentiator for businesses aiming to improve speed-to-market and capital
efficiency.

Industry observers say the conversation is gradually moving beyond
traditional project management metrics toward broader questions around
execution stability, coordination efficiency and business impact. As Indian
enterprises continue investing in large-scale growth initiatives, execution reliability
is expected to become a defining factor in long-term operational success.

<title>FM’s Worldwide Hail Hazard Map now provides one of the most comprehensive assessments of hail risk across the globe</title>
<link>https://en.newsbolt.in/fms-worldwide-hail-hazard-map-now-provides-one-of-the-most-comprehensive-assessments-of-hail-risk-across-the-globe</link>
<guid>https://en.newsbolt.in/fms-worldwide-hail-hazard-map-now-provides-one-of-the-most-comprehensive-assessments-of-hail-risk-across-the-globe</guid>
<description><![CDATA[  

Bangalore, India, May 25, 2026 : Leading commercial property insurer FM today launched  the FM Worldwide Hail Hazard Map, a new
global resource designed to help organizations better understand, quantify and
reduce exposure to the growing threat of hail damage.

Hail has emerged as one of the fastest-growing contributors to property loss over the
past decade, driven by evolving climate conditions, including the increasing
frequency and intensity of severe convective storms. For many global companies,
hail now represents a rising threat to business continuity, with losses and
disruption commonly stemming from damage to roofs, facades, yard storage and
roof-mounted equipment, including HVAC
systems and solar panel installations.

“With hail losses rising sharply in
recent years, businesses need a far more precise view of where their
vulnerabilities truly lie,” said Stuart Keller, chief engineer at FM.
“Our Worldwide Hail Hazard Map applies FM’s cutting-edge
science and decades of engineering expertise to help clients make informed,
practical decisions to protect critical assets and strengthen resilience.”

“Hailstorms are an established part of
India’s severe weather profile, with repeated events affecting industrial
facilities, storage and infrastructure in recent years,” said Sumit Khanna,
CEO, FMIC India, Reinsurance Branch. “As asset values increase and
portfolios become more complex, the Worldwide Hail Hazard Map helps
organisations move from experience-based assumptions to data driven resilience
planning.”

From regional insight to global coverage

Until now, FM hail hazard mapping has been limited to the
United States and Australia, two regions that continue to experience some of
the world’s most costly hail events. Advances in data availability and
modelling capability have now enabled FM to extend this analysis globally.

The FM Worldwide Hail Hazard Map is built
on more than 500,000 actual hail observations, combined with physics-based modeling, allowing FM to expand hail hazard
insights to regions that were previously unmapped. This enables FM clients and
the broader public to benefit from the same level of insight that has long
informed loss prevention strategies in the United States and Australia.

At the core of the global hail model is a
machine-learning algorithm that establishes
statistical relationships between the frequency and intensity of hail on the
ground and the severe convective storm environments that drive hail formation
in the first place. This approach supports detailed hazard mapping at regional
and global scales, even in areas with historically limited hail observations.

A depth of data that goes beyond
conventional maps

The modelling framework draws on more than 500,000 ground-based hail observations collected from
international sources, including storm reports and weather station data,
spanning from 1955 to 2024. These observations are integrated with state-of-the-art global reanalysis and satellite datasets and combined
with severe convective storm parameters developed from decades of research in
the severe weather forecasting community.

Unlike many existing hail maps, which
focus solely on the number of days experiencing damaging hail, FM’s Worldwide
Hail Hazard Map provides insight into hailstone size and kinetic impact energy.
This distinction is critical, as the impact energy is the primary driver of
structural damage.

By understanding not just how often hail
occurs, but how destructive it can be, FM engineers can more accurately assess
risk and recommend FM Approved materials and systems appropriate for local hail
conditions.

Engineering-led resilience for a changing
climate

FM’s approach to natural hazard
assessment is grounded in engineering and applied science. As climate-related perils grow more frequent and more
severe, FM continues to invest in advanced modeling tools that help clients
anticipate evolving risks and take action before losses occur.

The new capability complements FM’s
broader suite of Natural Hazard Maps, available to clients via the FM client
portal and publicly at FM.com.

About FM

Established nearly two centuries ago, FM
is a leading mutual insurance company whose capital, scientific research
capability and engineering expertise are solely dedicated to property risk
management and the resilience of its policyholder-owners. These owners, who
share the belief that the majority of property loss is preventable, represent
many of the world’s largest organizations, including one of every four Fortune
500 companies. They work with FM to better understand the hazards that can
impact their business continuity to make cost-effective risk management
decisions, combining property loss prevention with insurance protection.

<description><![CDATA[ Mumbai,
May, 2026: In what has been a landmark few weeks for the
MET Institute of Mass Media (MET IMM), students from Mumbai&#039;s leading
postgraduate media school have earned two remarkable international honours:
prestigious internships at Cannes Lions 2026 in France, and an award at the
Indian International Film Festival (IIFF).

Akshata
Hegde and Althea Annie Sequeira, students of MET IMM, represented N H Studioz
at  Cannes Lions, embedded within the
International film distribution department of a global film business for their
three-month internship. Their work spanned international film sales, business
development meetings with global buyers, client network expansion, and film
branding strategy – substantive responsibilities that went well beyond the
typical intern brief.

Cannes
Lions draws professionals from over 90 countries each year. Intern selection is
competitive and merit-driven, with no concessions for age or inexperience. That
MET IMM students not only earned those spots but performed substantive,
industry-level work over three months is a reflection of both individual
ability and the rigour of training the institute delivers.

Adding
to the momentum, a student film from MET IMM has won recognition at the Indian
International Film Festival (IIFF). ‘The White House of Circles’, a
documentary, explores the world of Warli painting, one of India&#039;s oldest and
most distinctive indigenous art forms, through a lens that is as much social as
it is aesthetic. The IIFF recognition further underlines MET IMM&#039;s strength in
film and entertainment education, and its commitment to storytelling that goes
beyond craft to carry genuine cultural weight.

Dr
Priya Menon Nair, MET Institute of Mass Media,
said, &quot;We have always believed that the best education happens when
classroom studies are supplemented with real world experience. The prestigious
Cannes internships combined with our IIFF recognition speaks to the kind of
students MET IMM produces: ones who are ready before the industry expects them
to be.”

Pankaj
Bhujbal, Hon. Trustee, MET, said: &quot;These recognitions, Cannes Lions
and IIFF in the same season, are a source of immense pride for the entire MET
family. Our students competing with, and holding their own against, the best
young talent globally is the clearest possible validation of what we set out to
build. Storytelling, creativity, and professional excellence have always been
at the heart of MET IMM, and our students are now carrying that to the world&#039;s
biggest stages.&quot;

Established
in 2005 under the Mumbai Educational Trust, MET IMM is one of India&#039;s leading
postgraduate media institutions, with strong industry relationships spanning
Jio Creative Labs, Zee, Ogilvy, Leo Burnett, Viacom18, Disney Star, and
Netflix, among others. The institute holds a Diamond rating from the QS I-GAUGE
Indian College Rating (2025) and was named Outstanding Institute for Mass Media
Management by the World Education Summit in 2019.

The
achievements reflect MET IMM&#039;s long-standing commitment to producing media
professionals who are equipped to compete and succeed on a global stage.

<title>Restoring rhythm through collaborative cardiac care</title>

<description><![CDATA[ Thiruvananthapuram, May 25, 2026 : Doctors at KIMSHEALTH successfully
performed an Epicardial Ablation Procedure on a 57-year-old patient from
Thiruvananthapuram, who was suffering from repeated cardiac arrests. The
patient reported to the Department of Emergency Medicine at KIMSHEALTH,
complaining of severe breathlessness and chest pain.  A detailed evaluation revealed that the
patient was suffering from  Ventricular
Tachycardia (VT), a serious and life-threatening condition, in which the heart
beats abnormally fast and irregularly.


Owing to the gravity of the situation, the medical team led by Dr. Anees
Thajudeen, Senior Consultant, Cardiology, opted for an emergency Radiofrequency
Ventricular Tachycardia Ablation procedure, a minimally invasive procedure using
heat energy to eliminate the abnormal electrical pathways in the heart
responsible for triggering irregular heartbeat. Following this, the patient
experienced repeated episodes of cardiac arrest. The team subsequently
performed an advanced Epicardial Ablation, a specialized procedure in which the
abnormal electrical circuits are ablated from the outer surface of the heart
using a catheter and radio frequency energy.

 

&quot;This kind of repeated episodes of cardiac arrest, which we call
a VT storm, is not uncommon. It can happen in patients with previous heart
attacks or other diseases, which lead to scarring of the heart muscles. At
KIMSHEALTH, we have been doing this procedure regularly. Whereas this case
stands unique because of the difficult nature of the storm, where two
procedures were done one after the other, and required critical care support of
the cardiac anesthesia team,&quot; said Dr.Thajudeen.

 

Following the intervention, the patient experienced complete relief
from symptoms. After a week-long hospital stay, he was discharged in stable
condition. Dr.Subash S, Consultant, and Dr. Hari Dev JJ, Associate Consultant,
cardiac anesthesia, were also part of the treatment.

internship support, water conservation, water management, and controlling water
pollution across Haryana.

Emphasising
the importance of collaborative and community-driven development approaches,
Dr. Raj Nehru Ji stated, “The focus should be on enabling communities, not
just delivering benefits.” Speaking on the role of public-private
collaboration in accelerating state development priorities, he added, “Corporate

skilling, livelihood, sports, and youth development to enable inclusive and
sustainable growth across the state.

Speaking
during the session, Bhomik Shah, Founder &amp; CEO, CSRBOX Group, highlighted
the growing scope of CSR investments in sports and youth development in
Haryana. He emphasised that Haryana possesses immense sporting potential and
that strategic CSR support can play a catalytic role in strengthening the
state’s sports ecosystem and enabling the development of future talent.

Corporate
representatives participating in the roundtable shared insights into their
ongoing interventions across Haryana, particularly highlighting efforts being
undertaken beyond urban and industrial regions to ensure wider regional
inclusion and impact. Participants also emphasised the importance of stronger
government convergence and institutional support to make CSR-led initiatives
more scalable, sustainable, and outcome-driven in the long term.

Several
important themes and recommendations emerged during the discussions, including:

●       
Strengthening certification support mechanisms
for skilling programmes through institutions such as the Swarn Jayanti
Institute and relevant government bodies to improve the credibility and
employability outcomes of trained youth. 

●       
Enhancing systems for placement tracking and
retention monitoring of youth trained under CSR-supported skilling initiatives.


●       
Building stronger industry-government
collaboration for digital learning, employability, and future-ready workforce
development. 

●       
Expanding support for technology-enabled
learning ecosystems, hybrid education models, and digital infrastructure across
the state. 

The
roundtable concluded with a shared commitment towards building long-term

<description><![CDATA[  

New
initiative unveiled to drive entrepreneurship-led rural development and
circular economy infrastructure across Maharashtra

Mumbai,
25th May 2026: At ImagiNxt 2026, MACCIA, Gaon Tithe Udyojak
(GTU), and Circularity Innovation Hub India Pvt. Ltd. formally announced a
collaborative initiative aimed at building scalable village-level economic
systems across Maharashtra.

The
announcement marks the next phase of the “One Village, One Entrepreneur”
movement, evolving beyond entrepreneurship enablement into structured village
economies driven by infrastructure, circular economy systems, entrepreneurship
and community participation.

As
part of the announcement, the organisations unveiled the proposed “100 Village
Circular Economy Pilot”, focused on creating scalable economic transformation
models through village-level circular economy systems, waste-to-wealth
infrastructure, entrepreneurship enablement, productive infrastructure
deployment and sustainable rural economic systems.

The
announcement was made in the presence of Mr Ravindra Mangave, President, MACCIA
and GTU Mission Pioneer; Mr Rameshwar Pawar, Chairman, Udyog Vichar Manch; Mr
Gaurav Somwanshi, Chairman, Research &amp; Innovation Committee, MACCIA; and Mr
Joel Michael, Founder &amp; CEO, Circularity Innovation Hub India Pvt. Ltd.,
alongside GTU leadership, entrepreneurs, industrialists, district coordinators
and ecosystem stakeholders from across Maharashtra.

The
proposed pilot initiative aims to establish Circular Economy Innovation Hubs
across selected villages and districts to help generate sustainable economic
value through local waste-to-wealth systems. The initiative also introduced a
financial framework powered by Granullo to support transparent capital
deployment, community reinvestment and measurable impact outcomes.

Speaking
at the event, Mr Ravindra Mangave, President of MACCIA and GTU
Mission Pioneer, said, “Gaon Tithe Udyojak was built on a simple but
powerful belief - that every village possesses talent, resources and
entrepreneurial potential. The next phase of this movement is about building
the systems, infrastructure and partnerships required to transform local
potential into sustainable village economies.”

Mr
Rameshwar Pawar, Chairman of Udyog Vichar Manch,
added, “This initiative is not designed as a short-term program. It is being
envisioned as a scalable economic ecosystem that connects entrepreneurship,
infrastructure, circular economy models and institutional participation to
create long-term opportunities for villages across Maharashtra.”

Speaking
on the broader vision behind the collaboration, Mr Joel Michael, Founder
&amp; CEO of Circularity Innovation Hub India Pvt. Ltd., said, “We aim
to build a thriving shared-economy ecosystem across villages where circularity
transforms waste into wealth, land into productive infrastructure and
communities into cooperatives. This initiative is designed to create
transparent and purpose-driven systems for capital deployment, community
participation and sustainable economic growth.”

The
collaboration further aims to explore scalable frameworks for circular economy
entrepreneurship, productive village infrastructure and sustainable rural
economic systems. The event also featured the premiere screening of “Gaon Tithe
Udyojak – Building Rural Economies of the Future”, a short film showcasing the
vision for entrepreneurship-led rural transformation across Maharashtra.

The
proposed pilot will initially target 100 villages and 100 entrepreneurs, with
long-term ambitions to create scalable frameworks for broader deployment across
Maharashtra.

<title>THE INVISIBLE FIGHT: WHEN A PARENT&amp;apos;S PRIDE HURTS A CHILD : BY KARISHMA</title>
<link>https://en.newsbolt.in/the-invisible-fight-when-a-parents-pride-hurts-a-child-by-karishma</link>
<guid>https://en.newsbolt.in/the-invisible-fight-when-a-parents-pride-hurts-a-child-by-karishma</guid>
<description><![CDATA[                                          

There is a huge
difference between fighting for a child and fighting over a child.

Every year,
thousands of children get caught in the middle of a brutal legal war. On one
side, you have a steady parent trying to keep the child&#039;s life safe and calm.
On the other side, you have a parent dragging the child into the court, using
the legal system to aggressively demand their “rights”.

But let&#039;s be honest
about something, true love doesn&#039;t need a judge to force it. When a parent uses
the court like a weapon, it&#039;s about their ego and pride, not their heart. 

If they truly cared
about the child&#039;s feelings, they wouldn&#039;t need a court order to prove it.

The System’s
Blind spot: Law vs. Emotion 

The biggest
challenge during legal litigation is that the system is fundamentally flawed.
The law makers created rules based on cold structures, completely missing the
emotional reality of a family.

●      No room for feelings: Courts operate on paper work, merit, technical laws, and
financial standings. They do not and often cannot measure emotional value, a
mothers silent tears, or a child unspoken fears.

●      The Surface Level Justice: A Parent who has been absent for years walks into the
court with lawyer and financial documents and our system treats them as equal
contender, ignoring the years of abandonment. The system counts the money in a
bank account but fails to count the days of daily care and emotional presence.

 

Spotting the
difference whether “Its love or ego”

How do you
know if a parent is acting out of love or out of pride? 

It is simple: 

Love observes, understands, questions ‘How will this case affect my child?
Are they happy? Are they safe?’ Love is willing to step back if it means the
child gets some peace.

Ego asks: ‘How do I win the case? How can I prove the other parent wrong?
What do I do to get the grip and control?’

To an ego driven
parent, the child is not a human being with feelings. The child is a trophy to
win or a tool to punish the other parent.

When a parent
drags a child to court just because they have the ‘legal right’ to do so, we
often miss the real battlefield: 

1.      
The Child Sees Everything,
(the silent witness): Adults think children don&#039;t
understand court papers or legal games. But children see everything. They are
the ultimate witness to harassment, sleepless nights and the truth. They notice
who shows up every single day and who only shows up when a lawyer tells them
to.

 They notice when a parent uses them to spy or
pass angry messages. They see through the fake promises. A child&#039;s heart
remembers who actually protected them and who caused the stress.

2.      
The
Silent Burden of the Primary Caregiver: In our society, a primary caregiver, especially a mother is
unfairly scrutinized and judged for doing everything alone. The ego- driven
parent will struggle into ‘neglect’, completely ignoring the reality of
managing a household, protecting the child&#039;s daily peace, and carrying the
entire mental and financial load single handedly. True parenting is seen in the
quiet , daily sacrifices to keep the child safe from a toxic environment, not in
the loud accusations of someone who only shows up to disrupt that peace.

 

3.      
The
Myth of Joint Cooperation: Courtrooms
often push for ‘joint decisions’, but to an ego-driven parent, joint custody is
just an open door to cause delays. They use legal loopholes to delay school
admissions, hold back medical signatures, and disrupt the child’s routine just
to keep a toxic grip on the child’s peace.

 

The Destruction
of Future Relationships 

This
prolonged legal warfare does more than just exhaust the child’s today also it
ruins their tomorrow. 

A child growing up
seeing the parent use court orders as weapons, their faith in the relationship
is shattered. They grow up carrying a deep negative impact regarding commitment
and trust.

What the
western countries do in these cases? 

In western
countries, the system puts a massive emphasis on psychological evaluation,
child support enforcement, and moving the case quickly and focuses heavily on
the child’s mental health so the child’s life isn’t frozen. But here, long
court battles force children to live in a ‘survival mode’ for years, which
damages how they view relationships later in life.

The Judgmental
Society: 

The trauma doesn’t
stay inside the courtroom, society brings it right to the child’s doorstep. We
live in a society that needs to desperately understand that marriage is not
everything, but a child’s peace is.

People look at a
single mother or a child from a broken home and ask pathetic, insensitive and
toxic questions. Society must change its thought process and stop this loop of
interrogation. A child’s wellbeing their personal will and what they want for
their own safety should always stand far above the legal pressure and societal
judgment.

A New Addition
to Education: Teaching Children their Rights 

If adults refuse to
change, we must prepare the children. It is time to teach about basic laws,
personal boundaries, and their legal rights directly in school textbooks.

If children read
and understand these things early they will know what is right and what is
wrong. They won’t be easily manipulated by an abusive parent or a confusing
legal system. They will have the strength to say and stand for themselves.

The toll it
takes on a child&#039;s body 

Children cannot
always find the words to say, ‘I am scared and exhausted’. So, their bodies
speak for them. The deep stress of being caught in a court battle often shows
up as: 

●      Trouble sleeping or sudden bed wetting (even if they are older)

●      Stomach aches, headaches and constant anxiety.

●      Falling behind in school because their mind is too tired to focus.

This
is what happens when a child is forced into “survival mode” instead of just
being allowed to be a kid.

If you are a
child going through this please remember these three things:




 You are not a prize. You are an
     individual. Your peace of mind matters more than any adult&#039;s pride.
 This is not your fault. This is an adult
     problem. You do not owe anyone a relationship just because a piece of
     paper says so.
 Look for your anchor. Lean on the parent
     who gives you stability. The parent who handles your school, your meals
     and your daily hugs is your safe harbor.


The Quiet Truth
Always Wins

Ego is very loud in
a courtroom. It makes a lot of noise. But the quiet truth of life which we live
every day is much stronger.

The law calls it
continuous care, but it is real parenting with love and warmth. It is the
parent who has consistently been there, year after year, building a shield of
love around you.

A judge can sign a
paper, but a piece of paper cannot force a real bond. In the end, the parent
who truly loves you will always put your peace of mind ahead of their own ego.
And that is the truth that outlasts any court battle.

<title>The Dangerous Belief System Behind India’s Recurring Project Delays</title>

<guid>https://en.newsbolt.in/the-dangerous-belief-system-behind-indias-recurring-project-delays</guid>
<description><![CDATA[ India is entering
another large capex cycle. Across manufacturing, infrastructure, healthcare,
education, logistics, real estate, energy and process industries, organisations
are committing thousands of crores to new plants, facilities, expansions and development
projects. These projects are not just engineering or construction assignments.
They are tied to revenue plans, capacity creation, market entry, financing
assumptions and competitive positioning. Delays are no longer only a project
problem

When such projects get
delayed, the loss is much larger than the visible cost overrun. Revenue starts
late, capital remains blocked for longer, market opportunities are missed, and
management bandwidth stays trapped in execution issues. Contractors, suppliers,
consultants and internal teams remain engaged beyond the planned period.
Equipment, manpower and decision-making capacity that should have moved to the
next opportunity remain tied to an unfinished project.

In large capital
projects, delay is not merely a schedule problem. It is a business problem.

Why
large projects are difficult to execute

A large capital project
is not executed by one organisation. It is a temporary system where the owner,
consultants, equipment suppliers, contractors, statutory authorities, operating
teams and multiple specialist agencies have to come together for a limited
period and work toward one common goal.

But they are not one
organisation. Each participant has its own commercial priorities, capacity
constraints and business pressures. An equipment supplier may accept an order
for one project, but the same supplier may also have dozens of other orders to
deliver. Its business objective is to use capacity well, protect margins and
keep multiple customers satisfied. A contractor may be working across several
sites, trying to maximise billing, maintain cash flow and keep its workforce
productive.

These are not wrong
intentions. They are normal business realities. The difficulty begins when the
project owner assumes that all these independent interests can be aligned
simply through more dates, tighter follow-up and stronger pressure.

The
usual response: more dates, more tracking, more pressure

Most large projects are
managed through a familiar method. The project is broken into detailed activities.
Dates are assigned to each activity. These dates are passed on to contractors,
suppliers and internal teams. Once execution begins, every missed date creates
a new round of review, explanation, revised commitment, escalation and
follow-up.

Over time, the project
environment becomes increasingly busy. More dashboards are created. More
trackers are updated. More meetings are held. More software is introduced.
Today, even AI is expected to help synchronise complex execution environments.

But if the underlying
execution logic is flawed, better visibility only shows the delay more clearly.
It does not prevent the delay from being created.

This is why
spreadsheets continue to survive in project environments despite large
investments in project management software. A spreadsheet is not sophisticated,
but it is easy to change. When plans keep shifting, commitments keep getting
revised and dependencies keep breaking, the tool that can be changed fastest
often becomes the most practical tool.

This should make leadership
reflect. If the plan requires constant rewriting, is the real issue the tool,
or the way execution is being structured?

The
belief behind many project delays

The deeper issue is a
belief issue. Most large capital projects are driven, consciously or
unconsciously, by the assumption that if we start more work, push harder, track
tighter and keep everyone busy, the project will finish faster.

This belief is rarely
stated openly, but it shapes execution behaviour every day. Starting more
fronts is seen as progress. A crowded site is seen as momentum. High manpower
deployment is treated as acceleration. Detailed activity tracking is treated as
control. When delays appear, the usual response is to add more reviews, more
follow-ups, more dashboards and more pressure.

But projects do not
finish because many things have started. They finish when the right things are
completed in the right sequence.

When the system is
designed around starting more and keeping everyone busy, it creates a large
volume of unfinished work. Civil work starts in several areas, but few areas
become fully ready for the next agency. Installation begins, but connected
services, access or utilities are not ready. Materials arrive, but drawings or
approvals are pending. Contractors show progress, but handovers do not happen
cleanly.

From a distance, the
project looks active. In reality, the flow toward completion remains weak.

Conflict
1: contractors need billing, projects need handovers

The first major
conflict appears at the contractor level. Contractors are often measured and
paid on the basis of quantity completed. Naturally, they try to maximise
billable progress. If a contractor can work in multiple areas and generate more
volume, that becomes attractive. From the contractor’s point of view, this is
rational. It helps billing, cash flow and resource utilisation.

But the project does
not move forward merely because quantity is produced somewhere. The next agency
needs a complete and usable front.

If civil work is
partially completed in five areas but no area is fully ready for the next
trade, the next contractor cannot execute smoothly. If structures, services or
utilities are completed in fragments, subsequent work becomes interrupted.
Everyone may show progress, but the project still struggles to move toward
completion.

This is a fundamental
difference. Contractors are often pulled toward volume. Projects need
handovers. When the system rewards volume more than completion, scattered
progress increases and real project movement slows down.

Conflict
2: everyone has reasons, so accountability weakens

The second conflict is
accountability. In a delayed project, there is rarely one clean reason for
delay. A supplier may miss a date because inputs were delayed. Inputs may be
delayed because of design changes. Design changes may arise because site
conditions or operational requirements changed. A contractor may underperform
because the front was incomplete. The owner may push for faster work, but the
material sequence may not support it.

By the time the issue
reaches a review meeting, everyone has an explanation, and many of those
explanations are valid.

This is where
conventional accountability breaks down. Management can express frustration,
demand revised commitments and escalate the issue, but if the dependency
structure remains unresolved, the next commitment is also made on weak ground.
The review may create pressure, but it does not create reliability.

Over time, the
organisation becomes very good at explaining delays, but not necessarily better
at preventing them.

Conflict
3: contract dates assume a cleaner world than execution allows

The third conflict is
created by the dates themselves. At the planning and contracting stage, dates
are often built on assumptions that look reasonable on paper: drawings will be
released on time, approvals will not hold up work, vendors will supply as
committed, contractors will mobilise as planned, resources will be available
when required and site conditions will remain stable.

Large capital projects
rarely operate in such clean conditions.

Once one major
assumption changes, the effect travels through the project. A drawing delay
affects procurement. A procurement delay affects installation. A partial
handover affects contractor productivity. A design change affects already
planned work. A late equipment delivery changes the commissioning sequence. The
original dates begin to fall like dominoes.

The project then enters
a continuous cycle of revising dates across agencies and packages. Dates that
were intended to provide control begin to generate more negotiation and
coordination because each new commitment remains dependent on several other
moving parts.

Why
pressure does not solve a structural problem

If work has been released
before it is truly ready, pressure creates confusion. If resources are spread
across too many open fronts, pressure creates multitasking. If contractors are
rewarded for quantity rather than usable handover, pressure creates more
fragmented progress. If revised dates are taken without resolving the
dependency that caused the slip, pressure only creates the next missed
commitment.

The belief that more
activity means faster completion is therefore dangerous. It pushes the project
toward more starts, more open fronts, more local optimisation and more
coordination load. The project becomes busy, but not necessarily faster.

The
Need to Rethink Project Execution

The way leaders define progress
eventually determines the way projects are executed. If progress is represented
by activity across many fronts, the project will continue to accumulate
unfinished work and coordination pressure. If progress is represented by
completed handovers that allow the next stage to move without interruption, the
project begins to behave differently.

This requires a fundamental
rethink of project execution. The question is no longer how to push every
stakeholder harder against dates that keep shifting. The question is how to
organise execution so that work moves towards completion with greater stability
and predictability. For leaders responsible for large capital projects, that is
the belief worth examining.

<description><![CDATA[ Drivn is enabling commercial EV fleet
solutions in India by combining innovative financing models with strategic
partnerships, making it easier for logistics and transport operators to adopt
electric buses and trucks. With high upfront costs and long operating cycles
limiting large-scale adoption, leasing-led financing and collaborations are
helping scale Commercial EV fleet solutions efficiently and sustainably.

How Drivn’s Financing Partnership
Reflects a Larger Industry Shift

Drivn’s financing partnership with Nomura
represents a significant shift in India’s commercial EV ecosystem. The company
secured financing commitments of up to USD 80 million to support the deployment
of electric buses and trucks across logistics and inter-city transport
segments.

This partnership demonstrates how
institutional investors are increasingly viewing commercial EV infrastructure
and leasing as a long-term growth opportunity. Large-scale financing agreements
like this help reduce risk for operators while building confidence in EV
adoption across heavy commercial fleets. For key
players in EV fleet solutions in India, this approach is setting a new
benchmark for sustainable, scalable fleet electrification.

Why Drivn’s Ecosystem Partnerships Are
Driving Commercial EV Fleet Solutions in India

While financing accelerates adoption,
operational partnerships ensure electric fleets can scale efficiently.
Commercial EV deployment depends on coordination between manufacturers, leasing
companies, operators, charging providers, and logistics networks.

Financing can make vehicle acquisition
easier, but partnerships across the value chain ensure vehicles are deployed,
managed, and operated effectively. Drivn has formalised several partnerships
across the commercial EV ecosystem, reflecting how collaboration is central to
the future of EV fleet solutions in India.

Key Partnerships Announced by Drivn
Transition Pvt Ltd


 Partnership with Fresh Bus for the leasing of 150 electric
     buses

     buses 
 Partnership with Azad India Mobility Limited for the
     procurement of 500 electric buses 
 Partnership with SwitchLabs for the leasing of 50 electric
     heavy-duty trucks 


These partnerships span inter-city mobility
and logistics, showing how EV deployment is moving towards integrated ecosystem
models rather than isolated vehicle sales.

How Financing Supports Commercial EV
Fleet Solutions in India

Financing is key to commercial EV adoption,
helping operators manage high upfront costs and long operating cycles. Drivn
combines institutional financing with leasing, enabling the adoption of
electric buses and trucks without full capital outlay while making commercial EV fleet solutions more
scalable and accessible.

financing and operational partnerships positions it to support scalable and
sustainable commercial EV deployment, reflecting how integrated approaches are
shaping the next phase of Commercial EV fleet solutions in India.

Summary

Commercial EV adoption in India will
increasingly depend on two things: access to financing and ecosystem
collaboration. Drivn’s financing partnership with Nomura, along with its

14th President of India Shri Ram Nath Kovind
and Governor of Maharashtra Shri Jishnu Dev Varma inaugurate the Billionaires
for Peace Conclave  

●     
Bollywood actor Sonu Sood Joins Hands with
Billionaires for Peace Conclave to Support Humanitarian and Peace Initiatives  

Mumbai,
May 22, 2026: The third edition of the Billionaires for
Peace Conclave (BFP), an initiative by the I Am Peacekeeper Movement (IAPM),
concluded successfully on 21st May 2026 at the Grand Hyatt Mumbai,
bringing together Nobel Laureates including Mohan Munasinghe, Kailash
Satyarthi, Houcine Abassi and Grigorii Pelman, alongside policymakers, business
leaders, philanthropists, spiritual voices and cultural icons for conversations
around peace, humanity and sustainable progress. The Honourable 14th President
of India Shri Ram Nath Kovind attended the conclave as Chief Guest, while
Governor of Maharashtra Shri Jishnu Dev Varma and RSS Member Shri Suresh
Bhaiyaji Joshi, attended as Guest of Honour. The conclave also featured a
recorded virtual address by President of Timor-Leste and Nobel Peace Laureate
José Manuel Ramos-Horta.

Addressing
the gathering, Former President of India, Ram Nath Kovind said,
“Material prosperity alone cannot create human well-being. Peace cannot merely
be viewed as the absence of war; it is the presence of justice, trust,
opportunity, and dignity for all.”

Governor
of Maharashtra, Jishnu Dev Varma said,
“The true strength of any civilization lies in its ability to nurture peace,
coexistence, and human dignity.”

Commenting
on the successful conclusion of the conclave, Dr. Huzaifa Khorakiwala, Founder
of the I Am Peacekeeper Movement, said,
“The vision behind the Billionaires for Peace Conclave was to bring together
Nobel Peace Laureates and thought leaders from across business, governance,
spirituality, philanthropy and the social sector on one platform to
collectively reflect on the importance of peace in today’s world. When
influential voices unite with a common purpose, their message has the power to
inspire millions across the world.”

Building
on the momentum of previous editions and the Global Justice, Love &amp; Peace
Summit held in Dubai last year, the conclave has now reached over 2.1 million
people globally through its various peace-led initiatives across schools,
colleges, institutions and communities. The movement continues to drive
conversations around inner peace, justice, compassion and collective
responsibility across geographies.

One
of the key highlights of the conclave was a series of discussions centred
around themes including Inner Peace is the Foundation of World Peace, Justice
is a Companion of Peace and The Role of Billionaires in Spreading World Peace
and Justice.

The
conclave also witnessed the signing of an MoU between the Billionaires for
Peace Conclave and the Sood Charity Foundation, with actor and philanthropist
Sonu Sood extending support towards the movement’s larger vision of peace,
humanitarian work and social impact initiatives.

Speaking
at the conclave, actor and philanthropist Sonu Sood said,
“I think it’s an amazing platform. The people here are the best in the world.
They are winners and achievers. And when they come to this platform, it feels
amazing that there are like-minded people who are there to help society.”

Nobel
Laureate, Mohan Munasinghe added, “The world today is
facing deeply interconnected challenges including climate stress, inequality,
resource scarcity and conflict. Addressing these issues requires collaboration
across governments, businesses and civil society.”

Additionally,
the conclave also honoured several distinguished personalities through the I Am
Peacekeeper Movement Champion Awards, recognising their contributions across
business, peacebuilding, public service and the arts. Some of the notable
awardees included Acharya Balkrishna, who was recognised in the Business
category, Acharya Lokesh Muni in the Justice &amp; Peace category, Aditi
Tatkare in the Youth &amp; Women category, and Aishwarya Majmudar in the Artist
&amp; Literature category, among others.

The
conclave reinforced India&#039;s growing stature as an important global destination
for conversations centred around peace, leadership and humanity.

About
the Billionaires for Peace Conclave (BFP)

The
BFP is a global platform uniting Nobel Laureates, business executives,
policymakers, and changemakers to foster dialogue and collaborative action
toward peace, sustainability, and global cooperation. Building on the success
of last year&#039;s Global Justice, Love &amp; Peace Summit at Expo City, Dubai, the
Mumbai edition marks India&#039;s growing role as a hub for high-impact global
dialogue.

<title>VEDA (from the house of GIVA) Launches Striking Mobile Installation to Promote Old Gold Exchange Amid Rising Gold Prices</title>

<description><![CDATA[ 22nd May, 2026;
Bengaluru, India : Luxury jewellery brand VEDA has unveiled a
first-of-its-kind mobile branding installation to spotlight its Old Gold
Exchange Program, turning heads across Bengaluru with a powerful visual
statement on evolving gold-buying behaviour.

The moving installation
- designed as a giant transparent showcase overflowing with old gold jewellery
- carries a bold message:

“Modi ji said don’t buy
new gold. So we listened.”

The campaign creatively
taps into the current market sentiment around rising gold prices and increasing
consumer preference for value-driven jewellery purchases. Through the
initiative, VEDA encourages customers to exchange their unused or old gold
jewellery for fresh designs, without the burden of making entirely new gold
purchases.

The installation
reflects the emotional and financial reality of Indian households, where gold
is both an investment and a legacy asset. By reimagining old jewellery into
contemporary pieces, VEDA aims to make luxury more accessible while promoting
smarter consumption.

Speaking about the
campaign, Nikita Prasad, Co-founder At GIVA &amp; Veda, shared:

“Indian families
already own immense value in the form of old gold lying unused in lockers.
Instead of pushing customers toward fresh purchases during volatile gold
prices, we wanted to encourage a more thoughtful and practical approach -
exchange, upgrade, and reinvent.”

The visually immersive
van has already started drawing attention on city streets, with passersby
stopping to photograph and interact with the installation. The activation is
also expected to create strong traction across social media due to its
unconventional storytelling and culturally relevant messaging.

VEDA’s Old Gold
Exchange Program allows customers to:

●       
Exchange old gold jewellery at market value

●       
Upgrade into newer contemporary designs

●       
Reduce making financial strain during high
gold-rate periods

●       
Give sentimental jewellery a modern
transformation

The campaign aligns
with VEDA’s larger vision of building a modern Indian jewellery brand rooted in
cultural relevance, transparency, and evolving consumer behaviour.

About
VEDA

VEDA is a contemporary
jewellery brand offering silver, gold, and lab-grown diamond jewellery with a
focus on elevated design, modern storytelling, and meaningful craftsmanship.
Founded from a legacy jewellery background, VEDA blends tradition with contemporary
luxury for the new-age Indian consumer. ]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[  Showcasing premium kitchen
living with Liebherr’s Fully Integrated Refrigerators

Lucknow, May 22, 2026 : Liebherr Appliances India, the subsidiary of
the globally renowned €14.6 billion Liebherr Group, strengthened its presence
in Uttar Pradesh with the inauguration of a dedicated Fully Integrated
Experience Zone at Aarad Interiors in Lucknow. The newly launched experience
space showcases all nine Liebherr Fully Integrated Refrigerator models,
offering homeowners, architects, and interior designers an immersive
introduction to modern luxury kitchen design and seamless integrated
refrigerators.

The inauguration event, held at Aarad Interiors’ new showroom,
brought together discerning consumers, architects, and interior design
professionals for an exclusive walkthrough of the experience zone. 

Speaking on the occasion, Kapil Agarwal, Managing Director – Sales,
Liebherr Appliances India, said, “Modern kitchens today are evolving beyond
functionality into thoughtfully curated lifestyle spaces where design,
technology, and personalization come together seamlessly. At Liebherr, we are
proud to lead the Fully Integrated Refrigerator category with solutions that
blend invisibly into modern kitchens while delivering world-class cooling
performance and food preservation technologies. With our Fully Integrated range
now being manufactured in India, we are able to respond more effectively to the
evolving needs of Indian consumers, climatic conditions, and modern kitchen
requirements while maintaining Liebherr’s global engineering standards. Our
Experience Zone at Aarad Interiors allows consumers and the design community in
Lucknow to experience firsthand how premium refrigeration can elevate
contemporary living.”

Modern Luxury kitchens today are increasingly defined by clean
lines, seamless surfaces, and uninterrupted material finishes. In this evolving
design landscape, appliances are no longer expected to dominate the space
visually but to integrate harmoniously into the overall architecture of the
kitchen. Liebherr’s Fully Integrated Refrigerator range precisely complements
this philosophy — enabling appliances to sit completely flush within cabinetry
while preserving the visual continuity of the space.

Concealed elegantly behind custom cabinetry panels, the Fully
Integrated range allows architects and homeowners complete design freedom
without compromising on performance. Whether finished in timber, stone,
lacquer, or metal textures, the refrigerators have become an invisible yet
indispensable part of the kitchen environment. The range combines sophisticated
German engineering with precision cooling technologies, intelligent storage
solutions, whisper-quiet operation, and energy-efficient performance — making
it an ideal choice for contemporary luxury kitchens.

The portfolio includes refrigerators, freezers, and Fridge Freezer
combination units across nine models, offering flexibility for compact urban
homes as well as expansive luxury residences. Manufactured locally at Liebherr
Appliances India’s state-of-the-art facility in Sambhajinagar, Maharashtra, the
range is specifically optimised for Indian climatic conditions and evolving
consumer lifestyles while maintaining the brand’s international quality
standards. Local manufacturing also enables faster accessibility, efficient
installation support, and improved service responsiveness for the Indian
market.

Commenting on the evolving role of integrated appliances in modern
homes, architect Pragya Gaur &amp; Mukesh Kumar Gaur from Goldenage, said,
“Today’s modern luxury kitchens are designed as holistic lifestyle spaces where
visual harmony matters as much as functionality. Fully integrated refrigerators
allow us to create kitchens that feel seamless, refined, and architecturally
cohesive. Liebherr’s solutions stand out because they combine sophisticated
aesthetics with engineering precision, giving designers the freedom to create
truly immersive spaces.”

Architect Amit Prajapati from Dream Design Studio, added,
“Homeowners today are increasingly looking for kitchens that feel calm,
minimal, and highly personalised. Fully integrated appliances help eliminate
visual clutter while enhancing the elegance of the overall design. Liebherr has
established itself as a benchmark in this segment through its seamless
integration capabilities, premium detailing, and performance-driven
innovation.”

Globally recognised for its engineering excellence, Liebherr has
built a strong legacy in premium refrigeration since entering the refrigeration
segment in 1954. Part of the family-run Liebherr Group founded in Germany in
1949, the brand today operates across multiple product segments with a presence
in over 150 companies globally.

Liebherr’s philosophy centres around delivering appliances that
combine longevity, precision, understated luxury, and intuitive functionality.
With a strong focus on innovation and design-led engineering, the brand
continues to redefine modern refrigeration by creating products that integrate
effortlessly into contemporary lifestyles and architectural spaces. By
manufacturing its Fully Integrated range in India, Liebherr further reinforces
its commitment to offering globally benchmarked solutions tailored to the
requirements of Indian consumers and the country’s rapidly evolving luxury
kitchen ecosystem.

The new Fully Integrated Experience Zone at Aarad Interiors marks
another step in Liebherr Appliances India’s commitment to expanding consumer
access to premium refrigeration experiences across key Indian markets while
strengthening engagement with the country’s growing community of architects and
interior designers.

<title>South Korea’s GPAI Reasoning Engine Effectively Tackles One of the World’s Hardest Exams, Pulling a Near&#45;Perfect Score</title>
<link>https://en.newsbolt.in/south-koreas-gpai-reasoning-engine-effectively-tackles-one-of-the-worlds-hardest-exams-pulling-a-near-perfect-score</link>
<guid>https://en.newsbolt.in/south-koreas-gpai-reasoning-engine-effectively-tackles-one-of-the-worlds-hardest-exams-pulling-a-near-perfect-score</guid>
<description><![CDATA[  

 A South Korean AI startup backed by
OpenAI has just turned heads across the Global Education landscape, not by
racing to another chatbot milestone but by sitting for JEE Advanced 2025 and
effectively scoring 351 out of 360. The company, GPAI, says the number is less
a flex and more a proof point for a different kind of machine intelligence one
that doesn’t just guess the right answer but unfolds a problem logically, step
by step, the way a sharp human mind would.

For anyone unfamiliar with India’s
engineering entrance gauntlet, JEE Advanced is the kind of exam where a single
misplaced sign can cascade into a zero. Its physics, chemistry and mathematics
problems are deliberately layered, weaving together multiple concepts into a
dense knot that rewards genuine understanding and punishes shortcut thinking.
That’s precisely why GPAI chose it. The company wanted to demonstrate that its system
isn’t a pattern-matching parrot but a structured reasoner.

At the heart of the performance is what
GPAI calls Structured Chain-of-Thought. Instead of rushing to a conclusion, the
model isolates bite-sized logical chunks, works through each one deterministically,
and then stitches them into a transparent solution. A separate computational
engine handles the number crunching, removing the kind of hallucination-prone
arithmetic that still trips up many large language models. The result is a
solution trail that a professor could follow line by line, not a black-box
oracle muttering a final digit.

That transparency matters enormously in
STEM education. A correct answer carries little weight if nobody least of all
the student can see how it came to be. GPAI’s pitch is built squarely on this
gap. The platform doesn’t just serve results; it surfaces the reasoning, making
it possible to verify every inferential leap. The system can also interpret
diagrams on the fly, use visuals mid-reasoning, and generate precision graphics
during inference, a boon for subjects like mechanics, optics and calculus where
a well-drawn force diagram or integral sketch often carries the logic of the
problem in its contours.

This multimodal fluency has quietly fuelled
adoption far beyond the startup’s home market. Within three months of launch,
GPAI says its user base inside India’s elite Indian Institutes of Technology
mushroomed, with over a thousand adopters at IIT Delhi alone. Researchers,
graduate students and undergraduates appear to be leaning on the tool not as a
digital cheat sheet but as a reasoning partner a portable lab bench where
problems can be dissected, visualized and verified.

The Indian traction is just one piece of a
broader picture. New data released by the startup points to use at 415 U.S.
universities, with active communities at MIT, Stanford, Harvard and UC
Berkeley. Campus adoption is being driven partly by GPAI’s visualizer
technology, which can generate research-ready diagrams and editable figures
sharp enough for journal manuscripts and conference slide decks. That
capability positions the product squarely in the workflow of serious academic
work rather than casual Q&amp;A.

Beyond diagram generation, A guided
reasoning companion, for instance, lets students pause mid-problem to query
individual steps and receive targeted explanations, helping them course-correct
without losing the thread of the solution. A problem-generation engine,
meanwhile, creates fresh, complex variants of existing questions while
preserving their original logical structure, allowing endless deliberate
practice without repeating the same tired examples.

All of this points to a clear ambition: to
build a research-led STEM platform where the currency is rigour, not just
response time. In a moment when education AI is often judged by how fast it can
spit out an essay or a snippet of code, GPAI is making a case that the harder
and more lasting problem is how the machine thinks. By tying
together deterministic computation, Chain-of-Thought reasoning and visual
problem solving, the company is sketching a future where an AI’s real value in
the classroom and the lab will hinge on explainability, intellectual honesty
and the patient unfurling of a genuine argument.

<title>Board360 Enters Strategic Partnership with Japan’s CPA Excellent Partners to Advance Global Accounting Education</title>
<link>https://en.newsbolt.in/board360-enters-strategic-partnership-with-japans-cpa-excellent-partners-to-advance-global-accounting-education</link>
<guid>https://en.newsbolt.in/board360-enters-strategic-partnership-with-japans-cpa-excellent-partners-to-advance-global-accounting-education</guid>
<description><![CDATA[ Board360
Global Learning Academy, the operating unit of Blue Octopus Edutech Pvt. Ltd.,
has entered into a strategic equity partnership with CPA Excellent
Partners Co., Ltd.,
one of Japan’s most established accounting education and talent development
organizations, through its Singapore-based global subsidiary.

This
partnership marks a significant step toward building a globally aligned ecosystem
for finance and accounting professionals across India, Japan, and the broader
Asian region.

A
Strategic Alliance Rooted in Educational Depth

Unlike
traditional edtech investments driven purely by financial capital, this
partnership reflects deep operational alignment between two institutions
focused on professional education.

CPA
Excellent Partners, founded in 2001 and headquartered in Tokyo, operates
Japan’s leading CPA training ecosystem, with a comprehensive presence across
exam preparation, e-learning, career placement, and lifelong professional
support. As part of its global expansion strategy, the firm established its Singapore
subsidiary to drive cross-border collaborations, including this partnership
with Board360.

Through
this collaboration, CPA Excellent Partners has acquired an equity stake in
Board360, reinforcing a shared belief:

Professional
qualifications are only the starting point. Real value lies in building
practical, globally relevant skills.

Why
This Partnership Matters

The
global finance and accounting profession is undergoing a structural shift.
Credentials such as the US CPA and US CMA are no longer region-specific, they
are becoming global career accelerators.

This
partnership brings together:

●       
India’s expanding pool of commerce and finance
professionals

●       
Japan’s mature and highly structured
accounting education ecosystem

●       
A Singapore-led global platform enabling
international collaboration

Together,
the organizations aim to create a cross-border talent pipeline aligned with
global standards, enabling professionals to operate seamlessly across
international markets.

What
Makes Board360 Structurally Different

Board360
is built on a simple but powerful belief:
 Professional education should create
skill-ready professionals, not just exam qualifiers.

In
a market crowded with traditional coaching institutes, Board360 stands apart
through a practice-first, practitioner-led learning model, where
knowledge is delivered by professionals actively working in the field.

The
CPA training and academic initiatives are led by Sagar Bajaj, Academic Head
at Board360, and a practicing US CPA. He brings hands-on experience across
taxation, bookkeeping, audit, and advisory through his own CPA firm.

Students
are not learning from educators who transitioned into teaching after clearing
an exam. They are learning from professionals who continue to work on real
client engagements, evolving regulations, and live financial scenarios. This
structure of learning delivers clear and unmatched benefits to the students,
such as:

●     
Concepts are tied to real-world application

●     
Learning reflects current regulatory
environments

●     
Sessions are shaped by live client
situations and practical workflows

This
practitioner-led approach ensures that students are not just prepared for
exams, but are ready to perform in global roles from day one.

Practice-Led
Learning with WeChartered

Further
strengthening this model is Board360’s association with WeChartered, a
professional consultancy firm specializing in accounting, taxation, and
advisory.

As
a strategic extension of the ecosystem, WeChartered brings industry exposure
directly into learning, enabling real client case understanding, practical
workflows, and alignment with employer expectations.

Together,
this creates a practice-integrated learning environment, bridging the
gap between education and real-world performance.

Driving
Global Talent, Strengthening India’s Economic Edge

This
approach goes beyond education, it contributes to building a workforce of globally
trained, industry-ready professionals capable of operating across borders.

As
India continues to position itself as a global capability hub, the demand for
professionals with international credentials, practical exposure, and global
perspective is rapidly increasing.

By
developing such talent at scale, Board360 is contributing to:

●     
Enhancing India’s global competitiveness in
finance and accounting

●     
Enabling professionals to access higher-value,
cross-border opportunities

●     
Strengthening India’s position as a trusted
global talent hub

Backed
by a Global Leader in Accounting Education

The
partnership gains further strength from CPA Excellent Partners, a giant in
Japan’s accounting education space, with a proven track record of
developing top-tier professionals at scale.

Their
entry brings not just capital, but decades of expertise, institutional
credibility, and deep domain knowledge in global accounting education.

This
alignment reinforces a shared objective:
 to build globally competent
professionals equipped for the evolving financial landscape.

Leadership
Perspective

Speaking
on the partnership, Sagar Bajaj, Founder and Academic Head at Board360,
said:

“At
Board360, we are not building just another institute, we are building a
platform that creates skill-ready finance and accounting professionals for a
global environment.

As
a practicing CPA, I’ve seen that passing an exam is only the beginning. What
truly defines a professional is the ability to apply that knowledge in real
situations like working with clients, navigating regulations, and making
informed decisions.

With
the integration of practice through our ecosystem and the strategic partnership
with CPA Excellent Partners, we are combining global expertise with real-world
learning to reshape how finance and accounting education is delivered.”

A
Broader Signal for Indian EdTech

This
investment reflects a larger shift:
 Global institutions are increasingly
recognizing India as a strategic hub for professional education and talent
development.

For
students and professionals, this partnership serves as a strong external
validation, an endorsement from an institution that has played a defining role
in shaping Japan’s accounting talent ecosystem.

<title>Binance Launches Perpetual Futures for Pre&#45;IPO Market Exposure, Starting with SpaceX</title>

<description><![CDATA[  

Designed
to democratize access beyond traditional private market participants, Pre-IPO
Perpetual Contracts allow users to trade expected valuations ahead of public
listings

May
22, 2026 : Binance today announced the launch of perpetual
futures contracts designed to give users early market exposure to high-profile
private companies ahead of their initial public offerings (IPOs). The new
product enables users to take positions on shares before they begin trading on
public exchanges, opening access to one of the most closely watched moments in
global markets.

The
first Pre-IPO Perpetual Contract to go live on Binance Futures will be SPCXUSDT Pre-IPO Perpetual,
based on the anticipated public market valuation of Space Exploration
Technologies Corp (“SpaceX”). Additional Pre-IPO perpetual listings will be
introduced over time.

The
launch also reflects Binance’s broader vision of building a financial super app
that gives users seamless access to a wider range of financial opportunities
through crypto-native infrastructure. By expanding beyond traditional digital
asset use cases and connecting users to major market moments, Binance continues
to evolve its platform into a more comprehensive gateway for global finance.

“Pre-IPO
perpetual futures is another example of how Binance is democratizing access to
market opportunities by combining crypto-native infrastructure with major
financial events. As interest in public listings continues to grow, we’re
giving users a more flexible way to engage with anticipated IPOs earlier,” commented
Shunyet Jan, Head of Spot and Derivatives Business at Binance. “This
launch reflects our vision for Binance as a financial super app — one that
offers access to an expanding range of financial opportunities that have
traditionally been more difficult to reach.”

Historically,
pre-IPO price discovery has been largely limited to institutional investors and
private market participants. Binance’s latest offering democratizes that access
by enabling a global base of eligible users to engage with market expectations
ahead of a company’s public debut. By leveraging crypto-native infrastructure,
Binance is helping reduce many of the traditional barriers associated with
pre-IPO participation.

Built
on perpetual futures rails familiar to digital asset traders, the contracts are
designed to offer continuous pricing, trading flexibility, and deep liquidity.
Rather than waiting for a stock’s public debut, users can trade on expectations
before final IPO pricing and beyond, turning a single market event into an
active, real-time trading opportunity shaped by evolving sentiment.

How
Pre-IPO Perpetuals work: Ahead of an IPO, the contracts are expected to
reflect publicly available pricing signals, including announced price ranges
and final offering prices. Once the underlying company begins trading on public
markets, the contracts will transition to reflect live market performance. In
the event that an IPO is postponed or canceled, Binance will provide advance
notice of any delisting and settle contracts according to a transparent process
designed to support a consistent user experience. Binance may transition the
contract into a standard TradFi perpetual contract framework
once it determines that a stable mark price can be derived for the underlying
asset.

First
Listing Details: SPCXUSDT Pre-IPO Perpetual is the first
Pre-IPO futures contract to be listed on Binance and is expected to provide
eligible users with exposure to market expectations surrounding SpaceX ahead of
its public listing. The contract will be margined and settled in USDT.
Additional information on leverage, tick size, funding rate and listing time
can be found here.

Disclaimer: Digital asset prices can be volatile. The
value of your investment may go down or up and you may not get back the amount
invested. You are solely responsible for your investment decisions and Binance
is not liable for any losses you may incur. Pre-IPO Perps are subject to high market
risk and price volatility. There may be particularly high volatility following
official listing and the price may remain lower than the final IPO price. There
is no guarantee that the IPO in respect of a share will proceed. You may be
called upon at short notice to make additional margin deposits or interest
payments. If the required margin deposits or interest payments are not made
within the prescribed time, your collateral may be liquidated. Moreover, you
will remain liable for any resulting deficit in your account and interest
charged on your account. All of your margin balance may be liquidated in the
event of adverse price movement. Past performance is not a reliable predictor
of future performance. Pre-IPO Perps do not represent ownership of the relevant
underlying share. Pre-IPO Perps are not associated or affiliated with, or
sponsored or endorsed by, the issuer of the relevant underlying shares. Before
trading, you should make an independent assessment of the appropriateness of
the transaction in light of your own objectives and circumstances, including
the risks and potential benefits. Consult your own advisers, where appropriate.

<description><![CDATA[ Goa,
May 22, 2026: The Gera School
has announced another year of exceptional academic outcomes in the Cambridge
IGCSE examinations, achieving a 100% pass result for its fourth graduating
batch.

In
a significant milestone, every student eligible for the internationally
recognized Cambridge ICE (International Certificate of Education) award
successfully achieved the certification, reflecting academic excellence across
a broad range of disciplines. The ICE award requires students to study subjects
across languages, humanities, sciences, mathematics and creative or vocational
disciplines, reinforcing holistic and balanced academic development.

The
school also recorded a substantial rise in high academic achievement:

●       
79 A* and A grades were secured by students
this year, marking a 17% increase over last year’s tally. 

●       
20 out of 22 eligible students achieved either
Distinction or Merit certifications from Cambridge. 

●       
55 B grades were also achieved, reflecting a
strong overall cohort performance. 

●       
Of the Distinction holders, Ian Godinho got A*
in all 8 subjects. Joshua Fernandes and Taksh Parekh got 7 A* and 1 A. Hannah
Vales and Neel Patil got 5 A* and 3 A’s.

In
addition to the IGCSE achievements, The Gera School also delivered exceptional
results in the Primary and Lower Secondary Checkpoint examinations, further
reinforcing the school’s strong academic foundation across all levels.

In
the Grade 5 Primary Checkpoint results, 40 students were registered, with the
school outperforming the international average in all three subjects. The
school achieved an average score of 34 in English against the international
average of 32, 33 in Mathematics against 30 internationally, and 35 in Science
compared to the international average of 31. Notably, 73% of the 120 grades
awarded were either High or Outstanding. Chloe Alemao and Avner Lopes emerged
as the top performers in the Primary Checkpoint examination.

The
Grade 8 Lower Secondary Checkpoint results also reflected strong academic
excellence. A total of 42 students appeared for the examinations, with the
school again surpassing the international average across all subjects. The
school recorded an average score of 39 in English against the international
average of 35, 35 in Mathematics against 33 internationally, and 37 in Science
compared to the international average of 33. Of the 126 grades awarded, an
impressive 81% were High or Outstanding. Tanvi Varddhman and Kiara Jhunjhunwala
achieved full marks in all three subjects, while Praveena Rane, Annika Kuttan
and Ryle Frank secured full marks in two out of three subjects.

The
results reinforce the school’s commitment to combining academic rigour with
individual attention and all-round student development.

The
Principal, Mr. Carol Joseph, said, “We are extremely proud of our
students and teachers for this outstanding achievement. Beyond the grades
themselves, what is particularly gratifying is the breadth and consistency of
performance across the cohort. The fact that all eligible students earned the
ICE certification reflects the school’s emphasis on developing well-rounded
learners with strong academic foundations across disciplines. The excellent
Checkpoint results at both the Primary and Lower Secondary levels further
validate the strength of our academic framework and the commitment of our
educators towards nurturing students from the foundational years onward. These
outcomes are the result of sustained effort, committed educators, supportive
parents and students who have approached learning with seriousness and
balance.”

Mr.
Rohit Gera, Managing Director, Gera Developments,
said, “At The Gera School, we believe education must prepare children not only
to perform well in examinations, but also to thrive in an increasingly complex
and global world. These results reflect a culture of high standards, individual
attention and continual improvement. We are particularly encouraged by the
consistency of outcomes and the broad-based excellence demonstrated by the
students. Our objective is not to create pressure-driven academic success, but
confident, capable and well-rounded young individuals prepared for the future.
The strong Checkpoint performance demonstrates that this philosophy is being
embedded early in a child’s academic journey, creating a solid platform for
future success.”

The
school also acknowledged the contribution of its teaching and administrative
teams across Primary, Lower Secondary and IGCSE levels, whose efforts played a
key role in the students’ achievements.

The
school stated that a detailed academic analysis will be conducted over the
coming weeks to identify further opportunities for improvement and continued
enhancement of learning outcomes.

<title>The Paradigm Shift in Facial Rejuvenation Mirrors the Preservation Facelift by Dr. Prashantha Kesari</title>
<link>https://en.newsbolt.in/the-paradigm-shift-in-facial-rejuvenation-mirrors-the-preservation-facelift-by-dr-prashantha-kesari</link>
<guid>https://en.newsbolt.in/the-paradigm-shift-in-facial-rejuvenation-mirrors-the-preservation-facelift-by-dr-prashantha-kesari</guid>
<description><![CDATA[ Long ago, people traveled for days to attend physical
meetings, wrote handwritten letters to stay in touch, and relied on fragile
floppy disks for data. During that analog era, aging was viewed as an
inevitable decline, and a facelift — a heavy surgical intervention performed
through long, visible incisions — was typically reserved for those well past
sixty.

 

Beauty Consciousness and Aesthetics
in the Era of AI and Digital Technology

Today, we live in an instantaneous digital world where
video calls replace travel, messaging apps connect us globally in seconds, and
our lives are shaped by on-demand platforms. Just as technology has evolved
toward seamless efficiency, the preservation facelift has redefined aging: why
wait for a total reconstruction at sixty when you can choose subtle, early
preservation now?

 

 

The paradigm shift in facial rejuvenation mirrors the
leap from the analog to the digital age. The old era of facelifts —
characterized by long incisions that often-left visible scars, deep anesthesia,
and months of recovery — is thankfully behind us. These outdated methods,
centred around the aggressive SMAS lift, frequently resulted in an unnatural
appearance and necessitated the use of drains. Furthermore, expertise was
confined to a handful of specialists in select Western cities, and the
procedure was widely perceived as the exclusive preserve of celebrities.

 

Today, the landscape has been transformed. Modern
techniques such as the preservation deep-plane lift are performed using
sophisticated endoscopic methods, ensuring no visible scars and a recovery
measured in weeks rather than months. This minimally invasive approach utilises
gentle twilight anaesthesia and eliminates the need for drains, delivering a
consistently natural, elegant outcome. The secrecy that once guarded these
techniques has dissolved; the internet has levelled the playing field, enabling
Indian surgeons to enhance their inherent skill with access to cutting-edge
global technology.

 

As a result, cities such as Bengaluru are emerging as
new global hubs for facelift surgery, reflecting the empowering conviction that
everyone deserves access to the finest care. This evolution ensures that
advanced cosmetic surgery is no longer an exclusive luxury, but a widely
accessible standard of care.

 

Decades of training and dedicated high-end surgical
practice, combined with a continuous commitment to updating skills and adopting
the latest global advances, have resulted in the world-class anti-ageing
procedures offered at Nypunya Aesthetic Clinic.

 

 

 

 

 

At Nypunya, everything is centred around you. The
approach combines the changes you desire with what can be practically and
naturally achieved — balancing your vision with clinical expertise. Anti-ageing
procedures here are a collaborative effort, drawing on the finest technology
and skill available, all customised exclusively for you.

<description><![CDATA[  The
limited-edition Jung Kook for Calvin Klein capsule brings the brand ambassador
and pop royalty&#039;s rebellious style to hero Calvin Klein silhouettes

INDIA – May 21, 2026 : Calvin Klein, Inc., part of PVH Corp. [NYSE:PVH], today
announces Jung Kook for Calvin Klein, a limited-edition capsule in
partnership with global brand ambassador and pop royalty Jung Kook, marking his
first fashion collaboration. Building on the brand’s long-standing
ambassadorship with the artist, the capsule reimagines Calvin Klein’s
brand-defining essentials through the lens of Jung Kook’s personal style,
merging the brand’s distinct design language with his rebellious edge.

“Partnering with Calvin Klein over
the past few years has given me the opportunity to express myself through the
brand’s iconic style, and it’s been exciting to work with Calvin Klein
in this more personal, creative way,” said Jung Kook. “As my first fashion
collaboration, I wanted to fully immerse myself in the process,
leveraging Calvin Klein’s design expertise to leave my mark on
every piece. This capsule feels authentic to my style and my love of riding and
is a meaningful way to shape something lasting through design and storytelling.”

Blending biker attitude with Calvin
Klein’s storied design codes, the men’s and women’s 20-style capsule
infuses the brand’s icons with Jung Kook’s authentic style. Rooted in underwear
and key denim silhouettes, including the 90s trucker jacket and 90s straight
and low-rise baggy styles complemented by graphic tees, sweatshirts and a racer
jacket, the capsule’s attitude and worn-in edge is further reinforced
with distressed denim accents and racing stripe details. Throughout, personal
and elevated details – special logo branding, interior woven labels, hidden
embroidery, Jung Kook-inspired graphics and custom denim washes, as well as
exclusive packaging – add depth and collectability.

“This collaboration brings together two
cultural forces at full power, combining the unmistakable influence of Jung
Kook with Calvin Klein’s iconic brand codes to create something
with real impact,” said David Savman, Global Brand President,
Calvin Klein. “Through Jung Kook&#039;s lens, we’re able to express a more personal
side of the partnership, inspired by his individuality and passion for
motorcycles, all interpreted through the Calvin Klein aesthetic.
Together, we are reimagining our icons for today in a way that feels authentic,
culturally resonant and globally compelling.”

The collaboration launches with a cinematic
campaign that captures Jung Kook’s magnetic energy and rebellious spirit
through a biker concept that takes cues from his passion for motorcycles.
Dynamic portraits and a series of trailers shot by Alasdair McLellan
portray Jung Kook as a modern icon embodying the freedom of the open road,
uniting fashion and entertainment to create an immersive world that balances
his larger-than-life impact with Calvin Klein’s confident point of
view.

Jung Kook for Calvin Klein will be available in India in eight select Calvin
Klein stores on May 20, 2026, 11 AM onwards.

<description><![CDATA[  BSS Saravanan , Founder Golden Keys
Construction and Shailendra Shivakumar (Indian Branding Guru) Birth Marque .

Chennai / Bengaluru, 
21st  May 2026 : In a significant milestone that reflects its steady growth
and customer trust, Golden Keys Construction has officially crossed 1000
successfully completed residential projects, further strengthening its
reputation as one of South India’s most trusted and fast-emerging residential
construction brands.

With a growing footprint across Chennai and Bengaluru, two
of India’s most competitive and rapidly expanding urban housing markets, the
company has established itself as a preferred choice among top residential builders in Chennai for modern homebuyers seeking transparency, reliability,
and long-term value in residential construction.

Over the years, Golden Keys Construction has built its
foundation on a simple but powerful principle — a home is not merely a
structure, but a lifelong investment where families build their future,
aspirations, and memories. This philosophy has enabled the company to consistently
deliver thoughtfully planned living spaces that combine functionality,
aesthetics, and durability while aligning with the expectations of today’s
urban families.

Today, the company has more than 100 ongoing residential
projects and residential
construction companies in  Chennai and
Bengaluru, reflecting both its operational
scale and the increasing trust placed in the brand by homeowners across South
India. Each project is driven by a strong commitment to quality construction,
ethical business practices, clear documentation, and customer-centric
execution.

In an industry where trust and transparency remain decisive
factors in home-buying decisions, Golden Keys Construction has differentiated itself
through responsible business conduct and consistent project delivery. The
company’s emphasis on ethical practices and transparent customer engagement has
helped it build long-term credibility and lasting relationships with families
across both markets.

Speaking about the milestone, Saravanan, Founder and
Promoter of Golden Keys Construction, said “From the very beginning, our vision
has been clear to build homes that families can trust and feel proud of for
generations. Crossing the milestone of 1000 completed projects is not just a
business achievement; it reflects the confidence and trust homeowners have
placed in us over the years. Every project represents a responsibility towards
a family, and that responsibility continues to guide every decision we make as
an organisation.”

The company has also been actively strengthening its brand
positioning and market presence through strategic communication and long-term
brand-building initiatives. According to Shailendra Sivakumar, Branding Guru
and Strategic Advisor supporting the brand’s strategic marketing direction
“Golden Keys Construction stands apart because of the values that drive the
organisation. Today’s homebuyers are informed, quality-conscious, and highly
aware of the importance of transparency when selecting a builder. The company
has earned credibility by consistently staying committed to ethical practices
while delivering homes that align with the aspirations of modern families in
Chennai and Bengaluru.”

As urban expansion continues to accelerate across South
India, the demand for trustworthy and responsibly developed residential
communities is rising steadily. Industry experts believe companies that combine
quality construction with strong ethical standards and customer-first practices
will continue to shape the future of urban housing.

With more than 1000 completed residential projects and individual
house construction builders in chennai
expanding portfolio of developments, and a growing presence in two major
metropolitan markets, Golden Keys Construction continues to position itself as
a trusted and future-focused construction brand dedicated to building stronger
communities and meaningful living spaces for generations to come.

At Golden Keys Construction, sustainability is not just a
commitment it is an integral part of every project we undertake. In
collaboration with PABT, we ensure that each completed project contributes
positively to the environment by planting 10 trees as a symbol of growth,
responsibility, and long-term ecological balance. Our construction practices
are designed to minimize material wastage through precise planning and
efficient execution, while advanced building techniques help reduce noise
pollution and disruption at project sites. By adopting resource-conscious
methods, optimizing energy usage, and integrating eco-friendly practices, we
create spaces that are both structurally strong and environmentally
responsible. This initiative reflects our vision of building not only
exceptional homes and commercial spaces, but also a healthier and more
sustainable future for generations to come.

enterprises, with small and medium businesses rapidly embracing AI-powered
systems for competitive advantage.

Industry Impact &amp; Market Opportunity

The global AI automation and digital marketing technology market is
witnessing exponential growth, driven by surging demand for intelligent
business infrastructure, digital-first customer experiences, and
ROI-accountable marketing systems. India, in particular, is experiencing one of
the fastest rates of digital adoption globally, creating enormous opportunities
for companies capable of delivering integrated technology and marketing
solutions.

By acquiring Vizree, Vinra Group enters this high-growth landscape
with a distinct competitive advantage — a combination of established industry
credibility, robust AI technology, and deep expertise in performance-driven
digital marketing. The acquisition is expected to unlock new growth
opportunities across sectors including real estate, retail, e-commerce,
healthcare, hospitality, education, and professional services.

The Road Ahead

The acquisition of Vizree marks the beginning of a significant new
chapter for Vinra Group. The company’s vision extends beyond offering
standalone services — it aims to create a fully integrated technology ecosystem
where AI development, software engineering, web solutions, and strategic
marketing converge to deliver unparalleled business outcomes.

As artificial intelligence continues reshaping global industries,
Vinra Group’s acquisition of Vizree reflects the growing convergence between

<title>IPS Launches &amp;apos;Prof. L. V. Gangawane Young Scientist Award and Oration&amp;apos; in Honour of Eminent Plant Pathologist’s Farmer&#45;Centric Legacy</title>

<guid>https://en.newsbolt.in/ips-launches-prof-l-v-gangawane-young-scientist-award-and-oration-in-honour-of-eminent-plant-pathologists-farmer-centric-legacy</guid>
<description><![CDATA[  

New Delhi : The Indian Phytopathological Society (IPS), a
leading national body in plant pathology and agricultural sciences, has
instituted the prestigious “Prof. L. V. Gangawane Young Scientist Award and
Oration”, a national platform to recognise and encourage outstanding young
agricultural scientists. The new award commemorates Prof. L. V. Gangawane
(1944–2018), an eminent Indian plant pathologist, soil microbiologist and
former IPS President, celebrated for his steadfast commitment to farmer-centric
research.

The announcement was made by IPS President-Elect Prof.
Rajendra M. Gade, who described Prof. Gangawane as “a scientist who
consistently bridged rigorous agricultural research with the real needs of
farmers and rural communities.” The Award and Oration, which will commence in
the 2026–2027 academic year, has been established with an initial endowment of
₹10 lakh donated by Mrs. Sushila Gangawane. The family has further pledged ₹90
lakh to support young scientist recognition, research encouragement and related
academic initiatives in Prof. Gangawane’s memory, bringing the total family
support for these initiatives to ₹1 crore.

The initiative has been conceived and shaped with the
support and guidance of senior members of the scientific and academic community,
including IPS President Dr. R. Viswanathan, IPS Secretary Dr. Malkhan Singh
Gurjar, Professors and Heads of Botany Departments Dr. Vikram Khilare and Dr.
Shivaji Kamble, and the Vice Chancellor of Mumbai University, Dr. Ravindra
Kulkarni. Together they share the objective of promoting excellence in plant
pathology and agricultural sciences nationwide.

Prof. L. V. Gangawane was widely respected across Indian
agricultural science for his unique ability to combine scientific rigour with
practical, farmer-oriented research across a career spanning more than four
decades. Born into an agrarian family, he made pioneering contributions in
rhizosphere microbiology, fungicide resistance, integrated disease management,
biofertilizer technology and sustainable agriculture, with particular relevance
to semi-arid farming systems.

As Head of the Department of Botany at Dr. Babasaheb
Ambedkar Marathwada University and later as Emeritus Professor, he played a
pivotal role in strengthening research infrastructure in plant pathology and
microbiology and in mentoring successive generations of scientists and
researchers. His international engagements included research collaborations and
invited lectures at institutions such as the Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew
(London), the University of Cambridge, the University of Bristol, Swansea
University, Cairo University, Kasetsart University (Thailand), the University
of Malaya (Malaysia) and Al Ain University (UAE). The Government of India also
selected him under its Cultural Exchange Programme to deliver scientific
lectures in Egypt.

Notably, during the 1970s; a period when advanced facilities
for human viral research were limited in India, Prof. Gangawane experimentally
demonstrated that the Hepatitis-B virus could be propagated on tobacco leaves.
This work opened new experimental pathways for subsequent virological and
vaccine-related research and was acknowledged in the internationally renowned
medical journal The Lancet in 1976.

A prolific scholar, Prof. Gangawane authored more than 280
research papers and developed recognised methods for controlling seed-borne
diseases in pigeon pea. Deeply committed to public outreach, he appeared on
Doordarshan’s “Aamchi Mati Aamchi Manse,” delivered talks on All India Radio,
and wrote Marathi-language scientific literature to communicate agricultural
science to farming communities. He guided 42 Ph.D. scholars and served as
President of the Indian Phytopathological Society in 2006. His contributions
were recognised with several honours, including the Maharashtra State Ideal
Teacher Award (2002), the Prof. M. S. Pavgi Award and the P. R. Verma Award.

In the foreword to the national seminar volume Biofertilizer
Technology Transfer, renowned agricultural scientist and architect of India’s
Green Revolution, Dr. M. S. Swaminathan, wrote: “We owe a deep sense of
gratitude to Dr. L. V. Gangawane for this labour of love.”

The Award and Oration have been designed to uphold the
values Prof. Gangawane embodied throughout his life; scientific excellence,
translational agricultural research, institution building, mentorship and
dedicated service to farming communities. IPS stated that the initiative is
expected to evolve into a distinguished national platform encouraging young
scientists working in sustainable agriculture, plant health and food security. ]]></description>

<title>Thomas Cook India expands its prepaid forex cards to 28 Currencies</title>
<link>https://en.newsbolt.in/thomas-cook-india-expands-its-prepaid-forex-cards-to-28-currencies</link>
<guid>https://en.newsbolt.in/thomas-cook-india-expands-its-prepaid-forex-cards-to-28-currencies</guid>
<description><![CDATA[ ●       
One of India’s widest currency
portfolios on a prepaid forex card 

●       
Reinforces focus on secure,
seamless and digital-first payments for global travel



Mumbai : As Indian travellers become increasingly global and digitally
adept, expectations around overseas payments are evolving rapidly. Convenience,
security and speed have become central considerations, particularly amid
shorter booking cycles and a growing preference for cash‑light travel. Today’s
global Indian traveller seeks secure, transparent and seamless payment
solutions that work                                     
effortlessly across destinations. Responding to these shifts, Thomas
Cook (India) Limited - India’s leading omnichannel foreign exchange services
company, has announced a significant expansion of its prepaid Forex Card
portfolio to 28 currencies, with the addition of 16 new global currencies -
creating one of India’s widest currency portfolios on a prepaid forex card.
This move reinforces the Company’s leadership in travel and forex innovation,
aligned with its focus on enabling smarter, secure and more efficient
international travel experiences.

Indians have become increasingly experimental in their choice of
holiday destinations, especially post-covid, driving strong demand across
emerging international markets. However, local currency for many of these
destinations is not always readily available. This often forces multiple
currency conversions, from INR to USD and then to the local currency, resulting
in higher costs and inconvenience. Thomas Cook India’s expanded prepaid Forex
Card portfolio addresses this gap by enabling travellers to load and spend
directly in local currencies, eliminate multiple conversions and access a
secure, seamless alternative to cash.

 

The newly added 16 currencies include: Chinese Yuan, Swedish
Krona, Vietnamese Dong, Malaysian Ringgit, Indonesian Rupiah, Danish Krone,
Hong Kong Dollar, Qatari Riyal, Norwegian Krone, Omani Riyal, Kuwaiti Dinar,
Bahraini Dinar, Bangladeshi Taka, South African Rand, South Korean Wo,
Philippine Peso and complement the Company’s existing suite of 12 currencies –
US Dollar, British Pound, Euro, Japanese Yen, Singapore Dollar, Australian Dollar,
Canadian Dollar, Swiss Franc, UAE Dirham, Thai Baht, Saudi Riyal and New
Zealand Dollar. Notably, the inclusion of currencies such as the Chinese Yuan
reflects the growing relevance of destinations aligned with strengthening
bilateral relations, increased trade flows and expanding air connectivity,
underlining Thomas Cook India’s commitment to staying ahead of evolving travel
patterns. 

 

The expanded suite of 28 currencies is available across both
Visa and Mastercard prepaid forex cards, ensuring seamless global acceptance.
Customers can purchase and load currencies through Thomas Cook India’s
extensive omnichannel network, including its retail outlets, digital platforms,
and via its partnership with Blinkit—enabling customers to buy and load forex on
their prepaid cards in under an hour. Additionally, Thomas Cook India’s Forex
on WhatsApp provides 24x7 forex services assistance, from live rate to

<guid>https://en.newsbolt.in/where-learning-meets-creativity-and-critical-thinking-inside-the-evolving-academic-culture-at-mats-university</guid>
<description><![CDATA[ Raipur,
India : In today’s knowledge economy, education is no longer defined solely by
academic performance or textbook learning. The ability to think critically,
communicate effectively, and innovate creatively has become equally important.
Recognizing this shift, MATS University is cultivating an academic environment
where creativity, communication, and intellectual curiosity come together to
shape well-rounded individuals. NAAC A+ and NEP syllabus will enable local
students to gain the facilities provided by universities situated in metros and
is highly beneficial for students of our state.

Redefining
the Role of Modern Education

MATS
University has steadily evolved into an institution that goes beyond
traditional teaching methods. Its academic framework emphasizes not only
subject knowledge but also the development of essential life skills such as
critical thinking, collaboration, and creative expression.

Departments
across humanities, psychology, management, and creative programs are adapting
their curriculum to reflect contemporary needs. Students are encouraged to
question ideas, explore diverse perspectives, and engage actively in the
learning process, transforming classrooms into spaces of dialogue and
discovery.

Blending
Creativity with Academic Rigor

One
of the most distinctive aspects of MATS University’s approach is its
integration of creativity into academic learning. Students are not limited to
conventional methods of study; instead, they participate in activities that
bring concepts to life.

Theatre-based
learning, for instance, allows literature students to interpret texts through
performance, enhancing both understanding and expression. Similarly, creative
projects, presentations, and interactive assignments enable students to
communicate ideas in innovative ways.

This
blend of creativity and academic rigor ensures that students not only grasp
concepts deeply but also develop the ability to present their ideas
effectively—an essential skill in any profession.

Communication
Skills at the Core

Effective
communication is a key focus area across all programs at MATS University.
Whether through classroom discussions, seminars, or presentations, students are
consistently encouraged to articulate their thoughts clearly and confidently.

Programs
in English and humanities integrate elements of media studies, digital
communication, and content creation, reflecting the growing importance of
communication in the digital age. These skills open up diverse career
opportunities in fields such as media, publishing, public relations, and
digital platforms.

At
the same time, students from other disciplines also benefit from communication
training, enabling them to excel in professional environments that demand
clarity, persuasion, and collaboration.

Encouraging
Research and Intellectual Growth

Alongside
creativity and communication, MATS University places strong emphasis on
research and intellectual development. Students are encouraged to participate
in seminars, workshops, and academic discussions that expose them to new ideas
and perspectives.

Research-oriented
learning helps students develop analytical thinking and problem-solving skills,
preparing them for higher studies and knowledge-based careers. By engaging with
contemporary topics and contributing to academic discourse, students become
active participants in the learning process.

A
Vibrant Campus Experience

The
campus environment at MATS University plays a crucial role in shaping student
experiences. Cultural events, academic competitions, and collaborative projects
create a dynamic and inclusive atmosphere where students can explore their
interests and talents.

Participation
in these activities helps build confidence, leadership skills, and teamwork,
contributing to overall personality development. The university’s focus on
holistic growth ensures that students are prepared not just academically, but
also socially and professionally.

Preparing
Students for a Changing World

As
industries and careers continue to evolve, the need for adaptable and creative
thinkers is greater than ever. MATS University’s approach to education reflects
this reality by combining academic knowledge with creativity, communication,
and critical thinking.

By
nurturing these qualities, the university is preparing students to navigate a
rapidly changing world with confidence and competence.

A
Culture of Innovation and Expression

MATS
University stands as an example of how education can evolve to meet the needs
of the modern era. Its emphasis on creativity, intellectual growth, and
practical skills ensures that students graduate as well-rounded individuals
ready to make meaningful contributions in their chosen fields. ]]></description>

<title>India’s 45&#45;Day MSME Payment Rule Exposes Structural Gap in Industrial Supply Chain Finance</title>
<link>https://en.newsbolt.in/indias-45-day-msme-payment-rule-exposes-structural-gap-in-industrial-supply-chain-finance</link>
<guid>https://en.newsbolt.in/indias-45-day-msme-payment-rule-exposes-structural-gap-in-industrial-supply-chain-finance</guid>
<description><![CDATA[  

A new analysis argues the mandate’s intent is sound — but the
financial infrastructure to support it does not yet exist for most of the
industrial chain. A phased, data-led supply chain finance architecture is
proposed as the path forward.

 

AHMEDABAD, May 21 : India’s 45-day payment mandate
for MSME suppliers, which came into force in April 2024 under Section 43B(h) of
the Income Tax Act, has brought into sharp relief a structural working capital
crisis running through the country’s informal industrial supply chains — one
that a UNIC Analysis(published
on Medium)
identifies as needing a new architecture of supply chain finance designed from
the distributor’s financial reality upward.

The rule requires companies to settle
dues to micro and small enterprise suppliers within 45 days to claim tax
deductions. For the industrial distributors who form the critical middle tier
of India’s manufacturing supply chains, the law has tightened one end of a
capital cycle that was already under pressure — without addressing the other
end at all.

“The policy is sound in intent.
The financial infrastructure to support it does not yet exist for most of the
chain.” — UNICbiz.com Analysis, May 2026

 

THE CREDIT SANDWICH

 

The industrial distributor — the
trader who stocks and sells the products of an anchor company, meaning
the principal manufacturer sitting at the top of the supply chain — operates on
margins that rarely exceed five to eight per cent. The distributor buys from
the anchor company on the anchor’s payment terms; he sells onward to
fabricators, plant operators, and industrial workshops on theirs.

The gap between those two
payment cycles is where his working capital lives — or stalls. When downstream
buyers delay, capital sits frozen in unpaid invoices. He cannot reorder, cannot
service existing customers, and cannot grow. Across India’s industrial hubs,
over 52 per cent of B2B payments already sit overdue beyond 90 days.

Section 43B(h) has compressed
the window in which the distributor must settle with the anchor company —
before his own buyers have paid him. His capital rotation, already under
strain, now has a hard deadline on one end and an unchanged delay on the other.

A SYSTEMS PROBLEM, NOT A CREDIT
PROBLEM

 

The analysis, published by
Ahmedabad-based strategic consultancy UNICbiz.com,
argues that the stress in the chain is not the cost of money — it is the
absence of velocity. Capital cannot complete its cycle because the downstream
payment culture moves slower than the upstream delivery schedule demands.

Conventional banking instruments
— overdraft facilities secured against stock and debtors — are designed for a
formal financial world that bears little resemblance to the informal industrial
trade most distributors actually operate in. They require three years of
audited financials, ITR filing history, and collateral — requirements that
exclude the large majority of the informal industrial segment.

THE PROPOSED SOLUTION: SUPPLY
CHAIN PARTNERS PROGRAM

 

The
proposed solution is built on one foundational insight: the anchor company’s
commercial relationship with every player in its chain is itself a financial
asset. Transaction frequency, order regularity, inventory velocity, and buyer
payment patterns are all data — and structured correctly, that data can replace
the balance sheet as the qualifying document for credit, making receivables
that were previously invisible to any formal lender visible and financeable for
the first time.

The
program operates on two tracks simultaneously. The first provides channel
finance against anchor-validated invoices, allowing distributors to meet the
45-day rule without draining their own capital. The second enables invoice
discounting on the distributor’s own receivables book — allowing him to receive
80 to 90 per cent of end-buyer invoice values immediately, completing the
capital cycle.

What banks require  → 
What the program uses instead

3 years audited financials 
→  6 months of platform-tracked sales and inventory

ITR filing history  → 
GST invoice trail from within the program

Collateral or property 
→ Anchor-validated purchase orders

CIBIL credit score 
→ Payment velocity and buyer repeat-order frequency

LEVERAGING INDIA’S DIGITAL
INFRASTRUCTURE — WITH A CRITICAL REDESIGN

 

India’s digital infrastructure
is well-positioned for this challenge — the building blocks already exist. The
GST network, Udyam registration databases, and digital lending frameworks have
created an environment in which invoice verification, buyer creditworthiness
assessment, and fund disbursal can now happen within hours rather than weeks.

 

Platforms such as FinAgg already
use anchor credit ratings to extend working capital to FMCG distributors via
e-KYC, GST invoice verification through India Stack APIs, and AI-led
underwriting that extends credit offers proactively, often before a liquidity
crunch hits. The architecture for industrial supply chains is the same — the
parameters simply need recalibrating.

The critical redesign challenge,
however, is the end-buyer problem. Existing invoice discounting infrastructure
— including TReDS — is built around large, credit-rated corporate buyers whose
creditworthiness is formally assessable. In the industrial distributor’s chain,
end-buyers are small fabricators, plant operators, and industrial workshops.
Their creditworthiness is invisible to any formal lender.

The program proposes
substituting the anchor’s 12 to 18-month ecosystem transaction data as an
alternative credit signal — enabling NBFCs to lend against behavioural
creditworthiness (recurring orders, payment velocity, purchase volumes) rather
than formal balance-sheet assessments. This is the specific re-engineering that
existing digital rails have not yet been assembled to deliver for the informal
industrial segment.

DESIGN CONSTRAINTS THAT CANNOT
BE ENGINEERED AROUND

 

The analysis is candid about
what the architecture cannot resolve on its own. Invoice discounting is
RBI-regulated when accessed through TReDS or licensed NBFCs; the anchor company
cannot run a lending operation directly. Three decisions must be made before
any program can be launched: who owns the NBFC relationship; how large the
anchor’s first-loss guarantee should be; and what discount fee the distributor
can actually absorb within a five to eight per cent margin.

“The discount fee on invoice
discounting is the real design challenge at the heart of this solution. It must
be calibrated to what a 5-8 per cent margin distributor can actually absorb —
without eliminating the margin the program was designed to protect. This is a
business design problem before it is a financial one.”

The infrastructure exists. The
regulatory framework exists. The digital rails exist. What is missing, the
report concludes, is the program design that assembles them specifically for
the informal industrial segment — with the anchor company’s commercial
intelligence at the centre and the distributor’s margin reality as the binding
constraint.

<description><![CDATA[ ●       
The phased launch calendar will see Rubics
Realty launching three residential projects in Sion, Dadar and Worli

●       
Rubics Realty is also diversifying their
outlook with a premium hospitality project in Goa and strategic land
acquisitions on the outskirts of Mumbai 

In
an announcement that highlights Mumbai’s surging appetite for luxury and
ultra-luxury housing as well as Rubics Realty’s strong performance since its
sensational debut in Mumbai’s vibrant residential real estate sector, the
developer has announced a commendable project pipeline for 2026-27. Anchoring
this pipeline are three premium residential developments in Mumbai’s
established residential districts, as well as an elite hospitality venture – a
first for the developer.

The
two residential developments will encompass 0.5 million sq. ft and 0.7 million
sq. ft and will offer discerning homebuyers and investors a selection of lavish
homes. Of these, Rubics Realty’s Sion project has already raised the bar for
vertical living in the city by combining panoramic views with expansive
residences. The project blends serenity and stature, accentuated by the quiet
exclusivity of gated elevation, to create a truly exceptional offering for
those seeking to go beyond the norm. 

All
the three residential projects are positioned in the luxury and uber-luxury
segments, reflecting Rubics Realty’s expertise and astute understanding of
Mumbai’s evolving real estate landscape. Further to the launch of the Sion
project, the developer will turn their sights to Lalbaug, Dadar – one of
Mumbai’s most iconic and auspicious neighbourhoods that is anticipated to
emerge as the city’s next landmark – for another pathbreaking luxury
residential offering. Also in the works is a premium residential development in
Worli, a top-tier luxury residential address in the city.

Through
each phase of their growth story, Rubics Realty will continue to build on their
design‑first approach, as well as the brand’s specialised expertise in
lifestyle‑led, architecture‑forward homes that prioritise quality of life over
mere square footage. 

“Today,
Rubics Realty is synonymous with creating luxury living experiences shaped by
proportion, clarity, and architectural precision. We build not just homes, but
living experiences that respond to their occupants’ pace, space and principles.
We’ve quickly made our mark in the premium and uber-premium markets and are
intent on continuing to add value to not just our project offerings but to the
entire real estate landscape of Mumbai, a city with tremendous potential. We
are certain of continuing our momentum through this year and aiming for even
more visionary milestones in the near future,” said Suhan Shetty, Managing
Director of Rubics Realty.

Additionally,
Rubics Realty is exploring land acquisitions on the outskirts of Mumbai as a
part of their strategy to offer innovative, future-focused and experiential
offerings to premium buyers. The developer will also foray into the luxury
hospitality space with an opulent venture in Goa, which will be announced later
this year. ]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[  Bengaluru-Based EdTech Startup CNEAR Signs MOU with LJ Institute of Engineering
&amp; Technology to Deploy Falcon — India’s First AI-Enabled Placement
Enhancement Platform

Bengaluru / Ahmedabad, May 2026 : In a landmark milestone for Gujarat’s higher education landscape,
LJ Institute of Engineering &amp; Technology (LJIET), Ahmedabad, has become the
first college in the state to formally implement an Artificial
Intelligence-powered campus placement system. The institution signed a
Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with CNEAR, a Bengaluru-based AI-driven
career technology company, to deploy Falcon (Cnear.AI) — described as India’s
first AI-enabled Placement Enhancement Platform — for the benefit of its
final-year students.

The MOU signing ceremony was held
at the LJIET campus and was attended by senior faculty, placement coordinators,
and CNEAR leadership. The partnership is aimed at replacing outdated, manual
placement workflows with intelligent automation, enabling LJIET’s Training and
Placement Cell to manage the entire recruitment lifecycle from a single,
centralised dashboard.

 

About the Partnership

Under this collaboration, CNEAR’s
Falcon platform will be integrated into LJIET’s

end-to-end placement process. The
AI-powered system is built to automate up to 70% of routine placement
operations — drastically reducing administrative workload while

improving transparency, speed, and
placement outcomes for students and recruiters alike.

 

The partnership will specifically target final-year engineering
graduates at LJIET, with the stated goal of securing higher Cost-to-Company
(CTC) packages for students by connecting them with curated hiring
opportunities through CNEAR’s growing corporate network. Being the first
Gujarat institution to adopt this technology, LJIET signals a broader shift in
how Indian colleges are beginning to rethink campus recruitment infrastructure.

 

What Falcon Does: Key Capabilities

•        
Automates job creation directly from uploaded
Job Descriptions — extracting roles, skills, and eligibility criteria in
minutes

•        
AI-powered resume screening and candidate
shortlisting based on CGPA, skills, batch, and recruiter criteria

•        
Real-time placement dashboards tracking CTC
trends, recruiter engagement, and hiring conversion rates

•        
One-click NAAC and NIRF-ready placement
reports for regulatory compliance

•        
Integrated communication via Email, WhatsApp,
and SMS — keeping students, TPOs, and recruiters aligned

•        
Student-facing tools including AI resume
builder, ATS optimisation, application tracking, and interview stage visibility

 

Voices from the
Partnership

 

“Universities are still managing placements
through spreadsheets, emails, and disconnected systems. Falcon is designed to
replace that fragmented process with an intelligent platform that automates
operations and enables data-driven placement management. LJIET’s decision to be
the first institution in Gujarat to take this step reflects exactly the kind of
forward-thinking leadership that transforms student outcomes. Gujarat was just
the beginning.”

 

— CEO, CNEAR | cnear.in  | cnear.ai


 

About CNEAR

CNEAR (cnear.in) is a
Bengaluru-based AI-driven career technology company incorporated in 2021 as
Yoursthatsenior Private Limited, registered as an MSME. Founded with a singular
mission of improving student employability and campus hiring outcomes across
India, the company has grown from a soft-skills training initiative into one of
India’s emerging

AI-powered placement
automation platforms.

 

CNEAR operates two
platforms: Falcon (cnear.ai), its AI-enabled placement management system for
universities, and a student-facing portal (cnear.tech) for job discovery and
career readiness. The company provides placement automation tools, career
development programmes, and industry collaboration initiatives — connecting
campuses, companies, and students through a unified digital ecosystem.

Since inception, CNEAR
has partnered with multiple leading institutions across India, including
Chandigarh University (one of its largest enterprise-level deployments spanning
multiple campuses), MIT Art, Design and Technology University (Pune), Krupanidhi
Group of Institutions (Bengaluru), East Point College (Bengaluru), Sarala Birla
University, AISSMS (Pune), and RLJIT, among others. The platform has already
impacted tens of thousands of students and multiple universities across the
country.








About LJIET / LJ
University

LJ Institute of
Engineering &amp; Technology (LJIET) is a premier technical institution under
LJ University, Ahmedabad, Gujarat. Known for its strong academic
infrastructure, industry collaborations, and focus on holistic student
development, LJIET has consistently produced high-calibre engineering
graduates. The institution’s decision to adopt AI-powered placement technology
reinforces its commitment to equipping students with every possible career
advantage as they transition into the professional world.

 

Significance for Gujarat’s Education Sector

The LJIET-CNEAR
partnership arrives at a pivotal moment. India’s higher education system
produces millions of graduates annually, yet most placement cells continue to
operate through fragmented spreadsheets, manual follow-ups, and siloed
communication — resulting in missed opportunities for deserving students.

By becoming the first
Gujarat institution to implement AI for placements, LJIET sets a precedent that
is expected to accelerate adoption of technology-driven placement
infrastructure across the state. Industry observers view this as an early
signal of a broader structural shift — from relationship-based, manual campus
hiring toward scalable, intelligent, data-driven recruitment ecosystems.

With Bengaluru-based
CNEAR expanding its footprint northward and westward through partnerships in
Punjab, Maharashtra, and now Gujarat, the company’s national growth trajectory
appears firmly on course.

<title>India’s Quiet Vascular Crisis: Thousands Die Each Year From an Aneurysm They Never Knew They Had</title>
<link>https://en.newsbolt.in/indias-quiet-vascular-crisis-thousands-die-each-year-from-an-aneurysm-they-never-knew-they-had</link>

<description><![CDATA[ Hyderabad, May 20, 2026  :  Vascular Health: An aortic aneurysm grows in silence, shows no
symptoms, and kills within minutes when it ruptures. A Hyderabad vascular
surgeon is calling for greater public awareness of a condition that remains
dangerously under-screened across India.

“When
a patient in their fifties comes in with a ruptured aortic aneurysm, you are
not treating a medical emergency - you are managing a catastrophe,” says Dr.
Bhavin L. Ram, Consultant Vascular and Endovascular Surgeon at Yashoda
Hospitals, Hitec City, Hyderabad. “The tragedy is that in most of these cases,
a simple ultrasound scan done earlier would have given us time to act.”

Globally, aortic aneurysms are responsible for
an estimated 150,000 to 200,000 deaths every year1 - a toll experts
say is disproportionately high given that the condition is both detectable and
treatable. In India, the problem is compounded by low awareness, minimal
screening culture, and a tendency to dismiss vague abdominal or back pain until
it is too late.

What the Body Keeps
Hidden

The aorta is the body’s largest artery,
running from the heart through the chest and abdomen. An aortic aneurysm occurs
when a section of the arterial wall weakens and balloons outward - producing no
pain, no symptoms, and no warning.2 The two most common forms are
the Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm (AAA) and the Thoracic Aortic Aneurysm (TAA).
When either rupture, it causes catastrophic internal bleeding. Research shows
ruptured AAA carries an overall mortality rate of 65 to 85 per cent, including
patients who never reach hospital.3

“The dangerous thing about an aortic aneurysm
is its silence. Patients feel nothing until rupture - and when it does, the
window to save a life is measured in minutes, not hours.” -
Dr. Bhavin L. Ram

Who Is Most at Risk

Men over 65 face a prevalence of four to eight
per cent and are four to six times more likely than women to develop AAA4
- yet women, when affected, face a three to four times higher rupture risk at
the same aneurysm size, largely because they are under-screened.5
Smoking accounts for approximately 75 per cent of all AAA cases; smokers are
seven to eight times more likely to develop an aneurysm.6
Hypertension is present in more than 60 per cent of AAA patients and
independently drives both growth and rupture risk.7 A family history
of aortic aneurysm raises individual risk two to four times.8

The Case for Screening
- and Modern Treatment

The most powerful number in this field is the
gap in outcomes between planned and emergency treatment. Elective repair of an
unruptured aneurysm carries a surgical mortality risk of less than one to two
per cent in experienced centres.9 Emergency repair of a ruptured
aneurysm carries a mortality risk of 40 to 50 per cent - for those who reach
the operating table at all.3 A simple abdominal ultrasound -
non-invasive, painless, and widely available across India - is sufficient to
detect most aneurysms before they reach a dangerous size.10

For patients detected in time, Endovascular
Aneurysm Repair (EVAR) has fundamentally changed what treatment looks like.
A precision stent-graft is guided through a small groin puncture - no open
incision, no prolonged anaesthesia. Once deployed, it creates a reinforced
channel for blood flow and eliminates rupture risk. Clinical trials confirm
EVAR reduces 30-day operative mortality by more than 60 per cent compared to
open surgery.9,11 Most patients go home within two to three days.

“A planned procedure versus a race against
death in an emergency theatre. That gap - between one per cent and fifty per
cent - is the most powerful argument for screening.” -
Dr. Bhavin L. Ram

Five Things the People
Must Know

●    
Screen early. If
you are a man over 65, a smoker, or have a close relative with an aortic
aneurysm, ask your doctor about a screening abdominal ultrasound.

●    
Control blood pressure. Uncontrolled
hypertension is one of the most significant drivers of aneurysm growth and
rupture.

●    
Stop smoking. Tobacco
causes cumulative structural damage to arterial walls; quitting at any age
reduces risk.

●    
Do not ignore persistent pain. A
deep, persistent abdominal or back pain should not be dismissed - in some cases
it signals an expanding aneurysm.

●    
Act immediately. A
sudden tearing pain in the chest, abdomen, or back is a medical emergency. Call
for help without delay.

<description><![CDATA[ India’s
leadership landscape is under pressure to evolve faster than ever. According to
Microsoft’s recent Work Trend Index Report, 82% of leaders say this is a
critical year to rethink strategy and operations due to AI adoption, digital
transformation, and increasing market volatility. The shift is clear.
Leadership today is no longer about managing functions. It is about navigating
complexity, making high-stakes decisions, and leading organisations through
constant disruption. For many professionals, this has exposed a critical gap
between experience and readiness for enterprise-level leadership.

Responding
to this shift, the Indian Institute of Management Calcutta has announced
Batch 19 of its Executive Programme in Leadership &amp; Management, a flagship offering designed for emerging
business leaders. With over 18 successful cohorts, the programme reflects a
strong legacy of enabling professionals to transition into strategic leadership
roles. It focuses on building capabilities that matter most today, from
strategic thinking and execution to leading in AI-driven, technology-enabled
environments, while preparing leaders to drive organisational growth and
resilience.

What
sets the programme apart is its emphasis on applied leadership. Delivered through
live online sessions by IIM Calcutta faculty, it
combines academic rigour with real-world relevance. Participants engage in
case-based learning, tackling complex business scenarios that mirror real
organisational challenges. A capstone project, guided by academic mentors,
ensures that learning translates into actionable outcomes. The inclusion of a
campus immersion experience further strengthens credibility, offering
participants a chance to engage with the institution’s ecosystem while
deepening their learning journey. Equally important is the peer cohort,
comprising mid- to senior-level professionals, enabling rich cross-industry
perspectives and collaborative learning.

What
will participants be able to do post completion?

●       
Make sharper strategic decisions in dynamic
markets  

●       
Build resilient teams that drive sustained
growth  

●       
Lead with clarity in complex, uncertain
environments  

●       
Collaborate across functions for better
outcomes  

●       
Drive innovation through a strong
organisational culture  

●       
Navigate boardroom decisions with financial
confidence 

The
institutional credibility behind the programme reinforces its value. IIM
Calcutta is among a select group of globally “Triple Crown” accredited business
schools (AACSB, AMBA, EQUIS), reflecting the highest standards of academic
excellence. Established in 1961 as an Institute of National Importance, it is
consistently ranked among leading global business schools, including Top 100
globally in the Financial Times Global MBA Rankings 2025 and Top 65 globally in
the QS Global MBA Rankings 2026, and among the Top 3 in India. This global
recognition ensures that participants benefit from a learning experience that
is both rigorous and internationally relevant.

Beyond
credentials, the programme is defined by its impact. Participants develop
sharper strategic decision-making capabilities, the ability to lead
cross-functional teams, and the confidence to operate in complex, high-growth
environments. As one participant notes, “The programme reshaped how I
approach strategy and leadership, bringing clarity, structure, and confidence
to decision-making in a fast-changing business environment.” This reflects
a broader shift, from acquiring knowledge to building applied leadership
capability that can be immediately leveraged in the workplace.

Programme details:

●       
Starts on: 30 June 2026 

●       
Mode: 100% Online 

●       
Duration: 1 year 

●       
Weekly effort: 3 hours 

●       
Fee: Rs. 6,74,000 plus applicable taxes. Tax
amount and online processing fees will be added at the time of checkout. 

As
the demand for future-ready leaders continues to rise, programmes such as IIM Calcutta’s have begun to
represent more than just an academic experience. It is a career-defining
investment in leadership capability, designed to prepare individuals for the
realities of today’s business environment and the uncertainties of what lies
ahead.

<description><![CDATA[ Cannes,
19th May 2026 : Oriflame, a global leading beauty and
wellbeing company, returns to the Cannes International Film Festival from 12 to
22 May 2026 with the Oriflame Glam Studio, following a successful debut at last
year’s festival.

Located
at Palais Miramar on the Croisette, the Glam Studio will once again welcome
international film, fashion and digital talents for professional beauty
services during the festival.

Building
on a successful debut last year, Oriflame’s presence at Cannes reflects the
brand’s long-standing belief that beauty is a powerful tool for confidence,
creativity and opportunity, while reinforcing its connection with global
conversations around culture, storytelling and self-expression.

Rooted
in its social selling model and global community of Beauty Entrepreneurs,
Oriflame’s Glam Studio brings together talent, artists and storytellers during
one of the world’s most influential cultural moments.

The Glam Studio will
welcome guests throughout the festival for bespoke hair and make-up experiences
crafted by an international team of artists ahead of red-carpet appearances and
gala premieres.

The
Glam Studio experience includes:

●       
Makeup Studio offering professional makeup
services from Oriflame’s award-winning product range

●       
Hairstyle Studio providing tailored hair
styling for festival appearances

●       
Relax Zone designed as a quiet space to unwind
and prepare before events

●       
Oriflame Products Zone showcasing key beauty
collections, including the recently 

launched
Top Scents fragrance range, developed in exclusive collaboration with
Givaudan’s Perfumery School in Paris

The
studio reflects Oriflame’s expertise in beauty and self-expression, combining
professional artistry with products developed through decades of innovation and
research.

For
Oriflame, Cannes represents more than a festival presence. It is an opportunity
to bring together beauty, creativity and entrepreneurship through a global
platform that connects with media, creators and entertainment communities from
around the world.

Elena
Degtyareva, Chief Marketing Officer, Oriflame,
says, “Cannes is a global celebration of storytelling and self-expression,
which makes it a natural fit for Oriflame. With our Glam Studio, we’re proud to
support talent at one of their most visible moments, while showcasing the creativity,
craftsmanship and entrepreneurial spirit that defines our brand. Our return to
Cannes also reflects how Oriflame continues to connect beauty with culture,
confidence and individuality through global platforms and experiences.”

“Global
cultural platforms like Cannes are becoming increasingly important for brands
to engage with consumers through storytelling, creativity and shared
experiences, for us, the Glam Studio is not just about beauty services, but
about creating meaningful cultural connections that align with Oriflame’s
values of self-expression, confidence and entrepreneurship across markets.,” said
Edyta Kurek, Senior Vice President and Head of India and Indonesia at Oriflame.

“Cannes
brings together conversations around beauty, fashion, film and culture on a
global stage, making it an exciting platform for brands today. For Oriflame,
the Glam Studio is a way to participate in these moments while connecting with
creators, media and audiences through experiences rooted in beauty and
self-expression,” said Abhishek Chakraborty, Head of Brand
Communication, Digital and Public Relations at Oriflame India.

Oriflame
Indonesia

This
year, the moment becomes even more meaningful for Oriflame Indonesia, as
Indonesian filmmaker Kamila Andini, director of Empat Musim Pertiwi / Four
Seasons in Java, a film supported by Oriflame Indonesia as part of its 2026
marketing strategy has been selected by the Red Sea Film Foundation as the only
Asian representative in the Women in Cinema Spotlight program at the festival. 

Four
Seasons in Java by Kamila Andini will be presented as a case study exploring
the behind-the-scenes journey of its international production at Marche du
Film.

Her
presence highlights the growing global recognition of women filmmakers and
reinforces the importance of women’s voices in shaping cultural narratives
through cinema. For Oriflame, this moment creates a stronger connection between
the brand’s global presence in Cannes and its local commitment to supporting
storytelling, creativity and women’s empowerment through meaningful cultural
collaborations.

Building
on a Strong 2025 Presence

Oriflame’s
return to Cannes follows a successful first presence at the 2025 Cannes Film
Festival, where the brand’s Glam Studio welcomed a number of recognised
international talents from the worlds of film, fashion and digital culture.

Among
those who visited the Oriflame Glam Studio last year were: Jessica Mercedes,
Preity Zinta, Zarina Yeva, Hofit Golan, Maria Lisowski, Patricia Contreras and
Dorota “Goldpoint”. Their visits helped establish the Oriflame Glam Studio as a
recognised beauty destination on the Croisette and generated strong
international media interest around the brand’s Cannes activation.

Press Conference at
Palais Miramar

As
part of its Cannes programme, Oriflame will host a dedicated press conference at Palais Miramar on Sunday, 17 May 2026. The event
will bring together international beauty, lifestyle and fashion media to
present Oriflame’s Cannes activation, highlight key product stories including
the official launch of two new Top Scents fragrances, and share insights into
the brand’s broader vision and upcoming initiatives. Attendance is by
invitation.

journeys, and thought leadership that inspire growth beyond conventional
success.

White Coat, Red Heart: Dr. Ashwini
Kumar Aiyangar Blends Medicine, Compassion &amp; Storytelling 

Dr. Ashwinikumar Aiyangar
is a senior Consultant Nephrologist with Apollo Hospitals, Secunderabad,
endurance athlete, musician and debut author whose first novel, White Coat
Red Heart, has drawn attention for its deeply human portrayal of medicine
and life within hospital walls. With over seventeen years of experience in
nephrology, dialysis and organ transplantation, he brings authentic emotional
insight into the world of doctors, medical students, patients and caregivers. 

Blending the discipline of medicine with the sensitivity of
storytelling, Dr. Ashwin’s writing explores themes of compassion, resilience,
sacrifice and emotional healing. White Coat Red Heart has resonated with
readers for presenting healthcare not merely as a profession, but as a
profoundly human journey shaped by relationships, struggles and hope.

Beyond medicine, he is a full Ironman triathlete, marathon runner and
musician, experiences that have influenced his perspective on endurance,
empathy and personal growth. Through his work, he hopes to inspire readers to
look beyond achievements and recognise the emotional heartbeat that connects
all people.

Dr. Mustafa Yusufali Gom
on the AI Revolution in Business &amp; Branding

Dr. Mustafa Yusufali Gom
believes that Artificial Intelligence is no longer just an automation tool, but
a collaborative force transforming creativity, decision-making, and predictive
business strategies across industries. As reflected in his book Samvad: Naye
Bharat Ka Sankalp and implemented through the vision of CARE TAKERS Exterior
&amp; Interior Pvt Ltd, he emphasizes that true innovation lies in balancing technology

Rethinking Success in the
India We Dreamed Of - Anshu Joshi Singh

Anshu Joshi Singh-  Author, Author coach, Life coach, NLP
practitioner, Motivational Public Speaker, and Founder-Director of Snow Finch
Publishing, who has spent years helping people rewrite their inner stories,
find their voice, and step into their fullest potential.

We may be India&#039;s most
aspirational generation and its most directionless. The problem isn&#039;t ambition
itself, but ambition severed from conscience: one that fills balance sheets
while emptying the soul. India once gave the world nishkama karma  selfless action without hunger for reward.
Today, we&#039;ve outsourced the very definition of success to systems built without
Indian civilisational values in mind. We chase valuations, percentile ranks,
and LinkedIn endorsements.

 That&#039;s a civilisational failure of
imagination. The India that resisted the empire wasn&#039;t powered by personal
wealth  it was powered by people who
measured themselves against a larger idea. Somewhere between liberalisation and
the startup boom, individual excellence decoupled from national purpose.

True success echoes. It
either widens the world for those behind you or narrows it. So after &quot;How
do I succeed?&quot; ask: &quot;What does my success make possible for
others?&quot; The real success story of this century won&#039;t be written in
unicorn valuations  but in whether a
billion people chose to rise together.

Where Lines Cross: A
Story of Partition, Integrity &amp; Humanity 

Where Lines Cross by Arun
Kaul is a multigenerational tale set against the backdrop of the 1947
Partition, exploring how loss, choices, and challenges shape human lives. The
story follows two resilient women, Phoolrani and Sona Jigri, who endure
violence, displacement, and personal tragedy, yet rebuild their lives with
dignity and strength.

Years later, their sons-
Dr. Arjun, an ambitious doctor driven by success, and Maj. Vijay, a principled
army officer guided by ethics; cross paths in a hospital that gradually becomes
a battleground of conflicting values. Through themes of greed, morality, and
human resilience, the novel questions the true meaning of success and the cost
of losing humanity in its pursuit. Blending history with ethical dilemmas, the
book stands as a compelling tribute to integrity, womanhood, and conscious
living.

Ms. Reetwika Banerjee:
Shaping the Future of AI &amp; Cybersecurity

Ms. Reetwika Banerjee,
Managing Director of Fly High Group, is a distinguished cybersecurity leader
advancing AI-powered Information Technology and Security services. As a woman
leader, she provides strategic direction to enterprises on cyber resilience
while championing secure digital ecosystems. With over 18 years of experience
as a cyber strategist, she also serves as the President of Public Safety and
Security Council Bengal and advises global enterprises on data privacy. Her
contributions have been recognized with honours including the Symbiosis Hall of
Fame and India’s #AIReady CISO Award 2025.

Conclusion 

Together, these stories
encourage readers to reflect on the evolving relationship between humanity,
technology, ethics, emotional well-being, and purpose; reminding us that true
progress is not only measured by achievement, but by the positive impact we
create in the lives of others.

<title>Backed by Science: Indulekha Bringha Hair Growth Serum Completes Second Clinical Trial, Proves New Hair Growth in 90 days</title>

<description><![CDATA[  

Clinical
trials show the Ayurvedic hair growth serum grows over 11,000 new hair strands
in 90 days while improving hair density and root strength.

MUMBAI,
India, May 18, 2026 :  Indulekha has announced the successful
completion of its second large clinical study on the Indulekha Bringha Hair
Growth Serum, further strengthening its position as the most clinically
validated hair growth serum in India.

Key
findings from the latest trials, conducted in 2025 following an earlier study
in 2024:


 11,000 new hair strands grown in 90 days validated through a rigorous scientific study.
 Grows 2x more hair than serums containing 3% Redensyl
 74% improvement in the Anagen-to-Telogen
     (A:T) ratio establishing the products ability to
     restore healthier hair growth cycle.


The
studies were conducted through registered Clinical Research Organisations under
the supervision of dermatologists and Ayurvedic practitioners.

Our
approach has always been to combine authentic Ayurvedic formulations with
rigorous clinical validation. By conducting two independent clinical trials
across two years, we aim to give consumers complete transparency and confidence
in the product’s efficacy and its ability to deliver real, measurable results,”
said Sairam Subramanian, VP, Haircare, Unilever.

The
findings indicate that the formulation supports the natural hair growth cycle
by delivering results at a follicular level. It observed that 97% agreed that
the serum increases thickness and visibly improves hair volume.

The
hair growth market, particularly the scalp serum category, has become
increasingly cluttered with several brands offering similar 3% Redensyl-based
formulations. In the interest of the consumers we serve, it was therefore
essential for us to rigorously evaluate the efficacy of 3% Redensyl through a
comparative clinical study against Indulekha Hair Growth Serum, ensuring a more
robust, credible, and science-backed assessment of performance.

The
dual studies were conducted during 2024 and 2025 on participants aged between
20 and 45 years, including both men and women experiencing early and moderate
hair thinning. The trials evaluated multiple parameters associated with hair
growth and scalp health, including new hair growth, hair shedding, follicle
strength, and scalp barrier function.

Participants
in the study also reported strong visible outcomes:


 100% observed thicker-looking hair
 97% reported a noticeable reduction in
     hair fall
 97% experienced improvement in hair
     density


The
findings from the 2024 clinical trial have already been published, while the
2025 trial results have been submitted for publication in the International
Journal of Research in Dermatology.

Indulekha’s
efforts reflect a broader effort to bridge traditional Ayurvedic knowledge with
modern dermatological science. All clinical studies are conducted on Indian
participants with real hair fall conditions, ensuring the results are relevant
to Indian scalp characteristics and hair density patterns. With multiple
clinical trials conducted across its portfolio to date, Indulekha continues to
invest in scientific validation of Ayurvedic formulations.

About
Indulekha

Indulekha
is a heritage Ayurvedic brand known for its science-backed expert scalp care
solutions that blend time-tested Ayurvedic wisdom with modern science. The
brand’s iconic Bringha Hair Oil is one of India’s most trusted solutions for
hair growth and Bringha Hair Serum is a natural progression in its promise of
authentic, efficacy driven &amp; clinically proven Ayurveda.

<description><![CDATA[ Oracle Communications to
support Indian ICT leader’s goal to optimize operations and expedite delivery
of new digital services

Mumbai - May
18, 2026 :  Ishan Technologies,
a rapidly evolving information and communication technology (ICT) company, has
selected Oracle Communications to
drive an ambitious, end-to-end digital transformation initiative. The
collaboration aims to modernize charging and billing, enabling faster
time-to-market for new offerings, more flexible pricing and discount models,
and improved operational efficiency across Ishan’s portfolio. The program will
also help establish a unified digital backbone to support Ishan Technologies’
continued expansion. 

“Partnering
with Oracle Communications marks a significant milestone for Ishan
Technologies,” said Pinkesh Kotecha, CMD, Ishan Technologies. “This
initiative gives us an integrated monetization foundation and flexibility for
complex business models, enabling us to develop solutions tailored to evolving
customer demands, boost operational efficiency, and accelerate our journey
towards full digitalization. Most importantly, it reflects our ongoing
commitment to providing our customers with exceptional digital experiences.”

Ishan Technologies operates across five
high-growth service lines, including enterprise internet and ISP/NLD
connectivity over 100,000+ km of fiber, surveillance and networking
integration, cybersecurity and compliance services, managed cloud and data
center solutions, and smart city command centers.

As
demand for agile, data-driven infrastructure grows, Ishan Technologies is
evolving from a standalone
telecom services model to an AI-enabled, digital-first infrastructure and experience
platform. Anchored in a commitment to superior service and long-term value
creation, this transformation reshapes how the company will engage with
customers. By deploying Oracle Cloud Scale Monetization
and Oracle Unified Operations,
Ishan Technologies can leverage solutions that combine advanced monetization
and closed-loop automation via Oracle’s order orchestration, inventory, and
service fulfilment functions on a telco-grade platform. 

Automated orchestration will help
accelerate time to revenue as the company transitions to modern connectivity
services, integrating data networks, cloud interconnect, MPLS, SASE, and
bandwidth-on-demand under a single umbrella. With Oracle, Ishan Technologies
will be able to deliver end-to-end service lifecycle management for
faster service provisioning, automatic identification, and mapping of network
resources through integration with network monitoring and management tools, and
end-to-end network and service topology views for better insight and
troubleshooting. Machine
learning (ML)-driven advanced root cause analysis capabilities will help Ishan
Technologies’ operations teams swiftly identify and prioritize
service-impacting issues and initiate targeted actions to quickly resolve them.

Advanced
monetization will also help Ishan Technologies reduce custom development,
improve billing accuracy, and accelerate new service launches. Built-in
charging and billing plus payment and collections experiences are integrated
across digital channels using TM Forum APIs. In tandem, Ishan Technologies can
support unified rating across prepaid and postpaid customers using a single
rating/calculation function, with flexible charging, discounts, and billing
adjustments for campaigns, agreements, and differentiated offers. Complex
enterprise billing model support includes multi-organization/legal-entity
billing, enterprise hierarchies, single bill, and cross-line-of-business
discounts.

“As
service providers face increasing competition and disruption, they’re turning
to real-time, scalable digital platforms to simplify and automate business
operations,” said Andrew Morawski, executive vice president and general
manager, Oracle Applications, Regulated Industries. “Innovative operators like Ishan
Technologies are leading the way in creating connected digital experiences that
respond to customer expectations and market demands.”

Aarav Solutions was chosen as the
delivery partner based on more than 13 years of Oracle Communications
implementation experience.

<title>From AI Awareness to AI Leadership: The Outlook Tech Professionals Need in 2026</title>

<description><![CDATA[ AI
is no longer a niche capability. It is becoming a baseline expectation across
roles, functions, and industries. If we look at today’s highly competitive
labor market, AI and machine learning roles are growing significantly faster
than most other professions globally, creating a strong demand for
professionals with both technical depth and strategic capability, but the real
shift is deeper. Organizations are no longer just experimenting with AI. They
are trying to scale it. And that reveals a critical gap. The challenge is not
access to tools, but the ability to either build them at depth or lead them at
scale.

This
shift is creating two clear career paths in the AI economy. One for
professionals who want to build AI systems, and another for those who need to
lead AI transformation within organizations. Both require very different skill
sets. And increasingly, both require structured, high-quality learning to move
beyond surface-level understanding. This is where UC Berkeley Executive
Education’s AI programs are becoming relevant, offering distinct pathways for
both builders and leaders.

Duration:
9 Months
Starts: 30 June 2026
Mode: Online + Live Online
Credential: UC Berkeley Executive Education Certificate of Completion

The
Road Ahead

AI
is becoming universal. Expertise is not.

The next phase of
careers in technology will not be defined by who can access AI, but by who can
build it or lead it effectively. Surface-level familiarity is quickly becoming
insufficient. Organizations are looking for professionals who can translate AI
into real systems, real strategies, and real outcomes. Because in 2026, knowing
AI won’t set you apart, what you do with it will.

<description><![CDATA[  

●     
A high-profile collaboration with
celebrity interior designer Sussanne Khan sets the tone for the one-of-a-kind
luxuriance this project will offer


●     
Expansive layouts and a completely
personalised living experience elevate Platinum Stellar: Bespoke Presidential
Suites to a league of its own  

●     
Located on Main Avenue, one of
Mumbai’s most coveted residential neighbourhoods, the project exudes
timelessness and understated elegance


 Mumbai, May 18, 2026: The future of
luxury is bespoke. And Platinum Corp., a developer acclaimed for creating
expansive, immersive living experiences for the city’s most discerning
homebuyers and investors, is embodying this ethos in its latest launch –
Platinum Stellar: Bespoke Presidential Suites.

A first-of-its-kind project that stems from the developer’s
deep and forward-looking understanding of Mumbai’s vibrant residential
landscape, Platinum Stellar: Bespoke Presidential Suites is underpinned by a
distinct design-first approach and understated approach to luxury, as
underscored by a design collaboration with celebrity interior designer Sussanne
Khan. Her expert touch permeates the depth and character of the project’s
distinct design language, while Platinum Corp.’s vast experience spanning more
than 15 years of trust and 1.75 million sq. ft delivered across Mumbai’s prime
suburbs is evident in how effortlessly the project distinguishes itself in
Mumbai’s crowded luxury landscape.

Described by Platinum Corp. as an expression of luxury that
is emotional, experiential and deeply intentional, the project has design
integrated into its very core – from spatial planning and proportions to
arrival experience and amenities, every aspect is curated to deliver a
cohesive, elevated lifestyle. Positioned as a timeless Art Deco-inspired landmark
for contemporary living, Platinum Stellar: Bespoke Presidential Suites is a
quiet statement of confidence in an otherwise fast-evolving, trend-driven
market. Inspired by the philosophy of Alison Duncan, it reinterprets the
precision, rhythm, and detail of 1920s Art Deco into a modern, highly
functional living experience. Whether in its refined, rhythmic detailing; deep,
elegant material palette that reinforces identity; or fluid layouts that
seamlessly accommodate contemporary living, the project is not just another
luxury development but rather a modern-day landmark, built to endure.

Amenities are woven into the project’s DNA as extensions of
lifestyle rather than an afterthought. From elegant hosting spaces and a
private party lounge to tranquil wellness zones with the calming presence of
water, every element is designed for balance and indulgence. Dedicated spaces
for yoga, aerial fitness, and a spa–salon experience ensure everyday wellness
feels effortless, even as the common areas are crafted to reflect identity and
stature. Equally compelling is Stellar’s location in Main Avenue, which offers
the rare balance of exclusivity and connectivity with seamless access to
Bandra, Khar, and key arterial routes. Proximity to premium social
infrastructure, high-street retail, fine dining, and business districts ensures
that residents are always at the centre of convenience, without compromising on
privacy.

Commenting on the project’s launch, Vishal Ratanghayra,
Founder &amp; CEO of Platinum Corp., said, “Platinum Stellar: Presidential
Suites is not just another address in Santacruz. It is a rare expression of
status, design and elevated living for evolved homeowners who regard homes as
more than just living spaces but as extensions of their identity and stature.
This differentiation is apparent in every element of the project, which was
intentionally designed as a low-density, high-end residential development. Our
decision to offer a limited number of residences on a premium land parcel is an
intentional one. Strategically, it is a flagship project for Platinum Corp.,
not only due to its design-led approach but also its collaboration with
Sussanne Khan, which elevates it into a marquee offering within our portfolio.
It sets the tone for a larger pipeline of premium launches planned by our
company, making it a key project that defines our current positioning and
future direction.”

Sussanne Khan, celebrity interior designer, remarked:
“Platinum Stellar: Bespoke Presidential Suites celebrates luxury, modernity and
speed – hallmarks of the rapidly developing environment it inhabits. The
project is swathed in momentum and scale; to me, the design had to evoke and
reflect its confidence instantly. That led us to envision the structure as a
timeless Art Deco landmark. It is a design movement that celebrates detail over
excess, and sophistication over ostentation.”

Platinum Stellar: Bespoke Presidential Suites features
spacious residences encompassing 2,500 sq. ft and upwards, extending to
expansive full-floor homes. The project will attract discerning buyers,
including HNIs, business owners, and legacy Bandra-Khar-Santacruz residents who
value design, privacy and refined living. Its boutique, design-led positioning
will resonate with individuals and families who view their home as an extension
of their identity, not just a purchase. Platinum Corp. has also been receiving
expressions of interest from investors who recognise the long-term value of
scarce, high-quality assets in prime micro-markets.

About Platinum Corp.

Platinum Corp. is a professionally managed, forward-looking
real estate development group anchored in Mumbai’s dynamic redevelopment
landscape. Recognized as one of the city’s most promising, location-driven
brands, the company is distinguished by its commitment to timely delivery,
thoughtful planning, and a deeply customer-centric philosophy. Platinum Corp.
goes beyond constructing buildings, to create living experiences that reflect
modern aspirations, urban sensibilities, and long-term value.

<title>Why Punawale is Pune’s Fastest Growing Residential Hub</title>
<link>https://en.newsbolt.in/why-punawale-is-punes-fastest-growing-residential-hub</link>
<guid>https://en.newsbolt.in/why-punawale-is-punes-fastest-growing-residential-hub</guid>
<description><![CDATA[ Pune,
Maharashtra : Pune’s real estate market continues to expand
at a remarkable pace, with emerging locations redefining urban living. Among
these, Punawale has quickly risen to prominence as one of the fastest-growing
residential hubs in the city. Backed by strong infrastructure, seamless
connectivity, and the presence of reputed developers like Siddhashila Group,
the locality is attracting both homebuyers and investors looking for long-term
value and lifestyle upgrades. Notably, Siddhashila Group, the makers of Eela,
brings its trusted legacy into this evolving micro-market, strengthening buyer
confidence from the very beginning.

Strategically located
near Hinjawadi, Pune’s largest IT hub, Punawale offers a clear advantage for
working professionals. The area ensures shorter commute times and better
work-life balance, which has become a key priority in modern homebuying
decisions. Its connectivity to the Mumbai Pune Expressway further enhances
accessibility, making travel across the city and beyond highly convenient. This
strategic positioning has significantly contributed to Punawale’s rapid
transformation into a preferred residential destination.

Adding to this growth
story is the launch of premium developments like Eevva by Siddhashila Group.
Positioned as a modern residential offering in Punawale, Eevva features
thoughtfully designed 2 and 3 BHK homes within elegantly planned towers. The
project comprises three high-rise towers with contemporary architecture and
spacious layouts that focus on comfort and functionality. Spread across a
well-planned layout, Eevva reflects the aspirations of today’s urban homebuyers
who seek a blend of design, convenience, and lifestyle amenities.

Interestingly, Eevva is
also recognized as the evolved vision of the well-known Eela development,
making it a significant milestone for Siddhashila Group. The group has already
established a strong presence in Punawale with projects that offer
well-designed homes supported by modern amenities and strategic location
advantages. Building on this legacy, Eevva represents a new phase of premium
living with enhanced design sensibilities and upgraded residential experiences.

Punawale’s growth is
also fueled by continuous infrastructure development. The area is witnessing
improved road networks, better civic amenities, and upcoming metro connectivity
that will further boost its accessibility. The presence of reputed schools,
healthcare centres, and retail hubs ensures that residents enjoy a well-rounded
lifestyle without needing to travel far. This holistic development is
transforming Punawale into a self-sustained residential ecosystem.

Another major factor
driving demand in Punawale is the changing mindset of homebuyers. Today’s
buyers are not just looking for a home but an enhanced lifestyle. Spacious
interiors, green surroundings, and community-focused living are becoming
essential requirements. Projects like Eevva cater to these expectations by
offering thoughtfully curated spaces that align with modern living standards.

From an investment
perspective, Punawale presents a strong opportunity. The steady appreciation in
property values, combined with increasing demand, makes it a promising choice
for long-term investments. The presence of reputed developers like Siddhashila
Group further strengthens buyer confidence, ensuring quality construction and
timely delivery. As the area continues to develop, the potential for higher
returns remains strong.

Moreover, Punawale
offers a rare balance between urban convenience and peaceful living. Unlike
crowded city centres, it provides a relatively calm environment with open
spaces and better air quality. This makes it an ideal choice for families,
professionals, and even investors seeking rental opportunities in a growing market.

Siddhashila Group&#039;s
contribution to this transformation cannot be overlooked. With a legacy of
delivering quality homes through projects like Eela and now introducing Eevva,
the developer continues to shape the residential landscape of Punawale. Their
focus on innovation, design, and customer satisfaction positions them as a
trusted name in Pune’s real estate sector.

As Pune expands
further, Punawale is set to play a crucial role in accommodating the city’s
evolving housing needs. With projects like Eevva leading the way, the locality
is not just growing but redefining modern living standards. For homebuyers and
investors looking to be part of Pune’s next big growth story, Punawale stands
out as a destination full of potential and promise.

living opportunities and learn more about Eevva, visit https://siddhashilaeevva.com/ and

<description><![CDATA[ Sonipat,
May 18, 2026 : In a step towards strengthening industry
integration in management education, Jindal Global Business School (JGBS) of
O.P. Jindal Global University, Sonipat, has signed a Memorandum of
Understanding (MoU) with Skyways Air Services Ltd., through its training arm
MyLogistics Gurukul. 

Skyways
Air Services, India&#039;s No. 1 and globally Top 50 Air Freight forwarder, offers
integrated first-to-last mile supply chain solutions across Air, Ocean, Road,
Express and Warehousing. JGBS is India’s top ranked private university-based
B-school as per the latest QS World University Rankings by Subject 2026. 

As
part of this partnership, the students of JGBS will get practical, hands-on
experience on India&#039;s growing logistics industry. This initiative also ties
perfectly into the Government of India&#039;s Skill India Mission, helping impart
young people the employable skills they need to make India a global talent hub.
The MoU provides JGBS students hands-on exposure through internships, facility
visits, industry sessions and certified modules from MyLogistics Gurukul,
bridging learning with real-world operations.

Professor
(Dr.) C. Raj Kumar, Founding Vice Chancellor of O. P. Jindal Global University
(JGU), stated: “Over the past 17 years, JGU has
established itself as an unparalleled and pioneering institution, setting the
benchmark for global higher education in India. In our quest for academic
excellence, we have ensured that our students are exposed to a diverse and
inclusive learning environment with suitable exposure to industry. The business
school of the university, JGBS, is forging strategic partnerships with major
players in the industry. This helps create meaningful avenues for our
management students to understand and work on the opportunities and challenges
faced by the industry, helping them become employable and future-ready. As an
Institution of Eminence, JGU remains committed to contributing to national
growth by adding a skilled youth workforce to the national pool.”

Under
the terms of the MoU, JGBS students will gain access to Skyways&#039; operational
ecosystem through structured internships, facility visits to warehousing and
freight hubs, and industry-led sessions conducted by senior logistics
professionals from Skyways Air Services.

On
the occasion, Mr. Yashpal Sharma, CMD, Skyways Air Services stated:
&quot;We are delighted to partner with JGBS, who has been contributing
immensely to the academic world and bringing great talent to the Indian
workforce. We are looking to work with them and together nurture talent that
will propel Indian Logistics as the engine of economic vitality. Logistics is
fast-tracking global trade through e-commerce and quick commerce, thrusting
academic talent into logistics-ready professionals so India can compete
worldwide, create effective supply chain solutions, and be most
cost-competitive for Logistics. This alignment with JGBS will contribute hugely
to the national vision for a skilled and competitive India.&quot;

Key
areas of cooperation include knowledge partnership for courses offered in the
areas of supply chain, logistics and allied areas, industry guest lectures, and
research related collaboration between Skyways professionals and JGBS faculty
members.

JGBS
Dean Professor (Dr.) Mayank Dhaundiyal said:
&quot; I am thrilled about this industry partnership with the Skyways group.
Through this partnership, our students will get to experience the logistics
sector first-hand and work on real problem statements and actual challenges
that companies like Skyways are solving today. These activities complement well
the other pedagogical interventions we are doing inside the classroom including
simulations, case studies and experiential activities that help students with
the course and program learning objectives. As India&#039;s top-ranked private
university business school, we will keep pushing to ensure our students
graduate not just with a degree but with the skills and industry exposure that
make them industry-ready.&quot;

For
JGBS students, this partnership is about getting closer to how the industry
actually works. The business school students at O P Jindal Global University
will work on live problem statements along with professionals from the Skyways
Air Services Ltd., taking concepts like supply chain strategy and operations
management and optimization out of the classroom and into real business
settings. Beyond live projects and industry visits by students of JGBS, the
collaboration also brings Skyways experts to the JGU campus for industry guest
lectures thereby adding a layer of practical insight that textbooks alone
cannot provide.

<title>UPSC Prelims 2026 Last&#45;Minute Preparation Tips: NEXT IAS CMD B. Singh Shares Expert Exam&#45;Day Strategy</title>
<link>https://en.newsbolt.in/upsc-prelims-2026-last-minute-preparation-tips-next-ias-cmd-b-singh-shares-expert-exam-day-strategy</link>
<guid>https://en.newsbolt.in/upsc-prelims-2026-last-minute-preparation-tips-next-ias-cmd-b-singh-shares-expert-exam-day-strategy</guid>
<description><![CDATA[ New Delhi, May 2026 :
With the UPSC Civil Services Preliminary Examination 2026 scheduled for Sunday,
May 24, 2026, lakhs of aspirants across India are entering the most crucial
phase of their preparation. As the countdown begins, experts advise students to
focus on smart revision, disciplined execution, and calm decision-making rather
than attempting entirely new topics at the last minute.

In the latest
development, the UPSC Prelims 2026 admit cards have been released for
download, and candidates can access them through the official UPSC online
portal at https://upsconline.nic.in/.
Aspirants are advised to download their admit cards immediately, verify their
details, check exam centre information carefully, and read all instructions
thoroughly to avoid any last-minute complications.

The UPSC Prelims
2026 examination will be conducted in two shifts — General Studies Paper
I from 9:30 AM to 11:30 AM and CSAT (Paper II) from 2:30 PM to 4:30 PM.
For lakhs of civil services aspirants, these final hours can significantly
influence performance.

According to B.
Singh, CMD, NEXT IAS, success in UPSC
depends not only on knowledge but equally on temperament, strategy, and
disciplined execution.

“UPSC Prelims success
depends not only on preparation but also on calm decision-making, confidence,
and disciplined execution inside the examination hall. The final 24 hours
should be about clarity—not panic,” said B. Singh, CMD,
NEXT IAS.

UPSC Prelims 2026 Exam
Timing and Important Details

Candidates appearing
for the UPSC Civil Services Preliminary Examination 2026 should keep the
examination schedule clearly in mind. General Studies Paper I will be
held in the morning session from 9:30 AM to 11:30 AM, while CSAT
(Paper II) will be conducted from 2:30 PM to 4:30 PM.

Aspirants are strongly
advised to reach their examination centres well in advance, as entry gates
close before the commencement of the examination, and delays may lead to
unnecessary stress or disqualification from entry.

UPSC Prelims 2026
Last-Minute Preparation Tips

Revise Notes, Avoid New
Topics

One of the most common
mistakes candidates make before the UPSC examination is attempting to study
entirely new material in the final hours. 

Experts advise
aspirants to focus only on their personal revision notes, short summaries, mind
maps, important factual areas, and previously studied concepts.

Starting unfamiliar
topics at this stage often increases anxiety, reduces confidence, and creates
confusion instead of improving preparation.

Organize UPSC Exam
Essentials in Advance

Candidates should
prepare all required materials at least a day before the examination to avoid
unnecessary stress on exam morning.

Essential items include
the UPSC admit card, valid photo identity proof, black ballpoint pen for OMR
marking, a simple analog wristwatch, transparent water bottle, and any other
permitted materials.

Carefully reading all
instructions mentioned on the admit card is equally important.

Verify the Exam Centre
Location

Aspirants should visit
or verify the location of their examination centre in advance to avoid delays
caused by traffic, unfamiliar routes, or confusion regarding directions.

This simple precaution can
significantly reduce exam-day anxiety and help candidates arrive in a composed
frame of mind.

UPSC Exam Day
Guidelines: What Candidates Must Remember

Candidates should aim
to reach the examination centre at least 45 to 60 minutes before reporting
time. Wearing simple, comfortable clothing is advisable, as heavy
accessories or complicated attire may delay security checks.

UPSC guidelines
strictly prohibit candidates from carrying mobile phones, smartwatches,
Bluetooth devices, calculators, or other electronic gadgets into the
examination hall. Following these instructions carefully is essential to avoid
complications.

Mental and Physical
Readiness Before UPSC Prelims

Performance in
competitive examinations is influenced not only by preparation but also by
physical and mental readiness. Experts recommend that candidates get at least seven
to eight hours of sleep before the examination, consume light and
nutritious meals, stay hydrated, and avoid oily or heavy foods that may cause
discomfort. Stress management is equally important. Simple breathing exercises,
meditation, or a short walk can help improve concentration and emotional
balance before the examination.

UPSC Prelims 2026 Exam
Strategy: Accuracy Over Guesswork

Negative marking makes
reckless guessing a risky approach in UPSC Prelims.

Candidates should focus
on answering questions they can approach with reasonable confidence rather than
attempting aggressive guessing under pressure. Maintaining a steady pace,
staying calm, and making measured decisions often improves scores more
effectively than emotional over-attempting.

Intelligent Elimination
Strategy for UPSC Prelims MCQs

Since the UPSC
Preliminary Examination follows a multiple-choice question format,
experts recommend that aspirants use the strategy of intelligent elimination
wherever appropriate.

When candidates are
uncertain about the correct answer, eliminating clearly incorrect options based
on logic, conceptual clarity, or contextual clues can significantly improve the
probability of selecting the right response.

However, experts
caution that intelligent elimination should be used as a strategic academic
skill rather than blind guesswork, especially because negative marking can
reduce overall scores.

Common OMR Sheet
Mistakes to Avoid in UPSC Prelims

Incorrect OMR marking
remains one of the most avoidable reasons for score loss in the UPSC
Preliminary Examination.

Candidates should
carefully match question numbers, mark responses neatly and accurately using a
black ballpoint pen, and reserve the final 10 to 15 minutes for
reviewing OMR entries.

Even well-prepared
candidates can lose marks through avoidable clerical errors.

UPSC CSAT Strategy
2026: Do Not Take Paper II Lightly

Although CSAT is
qualifying in nature, experts continue to caution aspirants against
underestimating it.

Several candidates in
previous years have faced setbacks due to overconfidence regarding Paper II. A
practical strategy would be to solve easier questions first, secure qualifying
marks comfortably, and avoid spending excessive time on difficult sections.

Common Mistakes to
Avoid One Day Before UPSC Prelims

Candidates should avoid
common last-minute mistakes such as comparing preparation levels with peers,
engaging in stressful discussions around expected cut-offs, solving excessive
mock tests, staying awake late into the night, or attempting entirely new
topics.

The final day should
focus on consolidation, confidence-building, and mental composure rather than
information overload.

Expert Message from
NEXT IAS CMD B. Singh

Sharing his message for
aspirants, B. Singh, CMD, NEXT IAS,
said:

“The Civil Services
Examination is not merely a test of information recall. It is equally a test of
patience, emotional control, decision-making, and strategic execution. Trust
your preparation and remain mentally composed.”

Final Word

As lakhs of aspirants
prepare for UPSC Prelims 2026, experts emphasize that success depends
not just on months of preparation, but also on calm execution in the final
hours.

With disciplined
revision, strategic time management, intelligent question selection, and a
composed mindset, aspirants can maximize their chances of clearing the first
stage of India’s most prestigious examination.

NEXT IAS
extends its best wishes to all candidates appearing for the UPSC Civil Services
Preliminary Examination 2026.

<link>https://en.newsbolt.in/arpita-chowdhury-crowned-indias-universal-woman-set-to-represent-the-nation-on-the-international-stage</link>
<guid>https://en.newsbolt.in/arpita-chowdhury-crowned-indias-universal-woman-set-to-represent-the-nation-on-the-international-stage</guid>
<description><![CDATA[ MUMBAI, INDIA :  In a moment that celebrates ambition,
individuality, and the relentless spirit of modern womanhood, Arpita
Chowdhury has been officially announced as India’s representative for Universal
Woman, a premier international platform celebrating women of influence,
purpose, and impact.

A Journey Forged in Grit

The announcement marks a significant milestone in a
journey built on far more than just grace. For Arpita, this path began in the
quiet landscapes of small-town India, where the seeds of her ambition were
first sown. Her rise to the national spotlight was not a stroke of luck, but a
hard-fought battle; having struggled since her teenage years,  every achievement has been earned through
unwavering perseverance and a refusal to be defined by her circumstances.

As she prepares to represent India, Arpita steps
into a role that goes beyond titles, embodying the aspirations of self-made
women who redefine success through authenticity and grit.

From Elite Stages to Global Frontiers

Today, based in Kolkata, Arpita stands as one of the leading
emcees in India’s live experiential industry. A seasoned globe-traveller,
she has spent years commanding stages across the world, turning her voice into
a tool for connection and leadership. Her evolution continues as a budding
entrepreneur, currently building her venture, Latitude 24—proving
that she is as much a strategist as she is a storyteller.

Her selection is a celebration of the changing face of
global representation, where personal history and professional substance take
center stage.

“Arpita’s journey is deeply moving because it reflects
true resilience,” said Mohini Sharma, National Director of Mrs. India Inc.
“From her early days in small towns to her struggle through her teens, she has
shown the courage to dream bigger at every turn. She represents the strength of
today’s Indian women who are ready to make a mark globally while staying rooted
in their values. We are proud to have her represent India.”

A New Chapter of Influence

The announcement highlights the growing global presence of
Indian leaders who have become voices of confidence and cultural
representation. As preparations begin, Arpita is set to showcase India’s
spirit, diversity, and professional elegance on a platform that honors women
making a meaningful impact beyond borders.

Expressing her gratitude, Arpita Chowdhury shared:

&quot;Representing India at Universal Woman is both an
honor and a profound responsibility. My journey—from the struggles of my youth
to the stages of the world—has taught me that success is built through
consistency and the courage to pursue aspirations fearlessly. I look forward to
embracing this chapter with pride and authenticity.&quot;

Beyond the spotlight, Arpita’s story stands as a powerful
reminder that where you start does not limit how far you can go. As she embarks
on this international chapter, she carries with her the hopes and encouragement
of those who believe in the power of a self-made dream. ]]></description>

<title>HR Expert Arghya Sarkar Expects Strong Growth in West Bengal Job Market Under New State Government</title>
<link>https://en.newsbolt.in/hr-expert-arghya-sarkar-expects-strong-growth-in-west-bengal-job-market-under-new-state-government</link>
<guid>https://en.newsbolt.in/hr-expert-arghya-sarkar-expects-strong-growth-in-west-bengal-job-market-under-new-state-government</guid>
<description><![CDATA[ Kolkata : West Bengal’s
job market could witness a significant growth phase during 2026–27 under the
newly formed state government, according to HR expert and Recruitment Mantra
Founder Arghya Sarkar. In a recent interaction, Sarkar shared his views on how
policy direction, administrative reforms, industrial confidence, and
infrastructure development may positively influence employment generation
across the state.

According to Sarkar,
sectors such as IT, manufacturing, infrastructure, healthcare, logistics,
digital services, and startups are expected to see major hiring growth over the
next two years.

“The overall market
sentiment appears more optimistic after the formation of the new government.
Whenever industries and investors see stability, faster decision-making, and a
growth-oriented administration, hiring activities automatically increase,”
Sarkar said during the interview.

He further explained
that industrialists and business houses generally prioritize factors such as
law and order, policy transparency, administrative efficiency, and ease of
doing business before making long-term investments in any state.

“In today’s competitive
economic environment, investors look for stable governance, smooth business
operations, transparent systems, and strong accountability. If the government
continues focusing on improving administrative efficiency and maintaining a
strict stance against corruption, it can naturally attract more industrial
investments into West Bengal,” Sarkar observed.

According to him,
increased investments from corporate groups and manufacturing companies could
create large-scale direct and indirect employment opportunities across Kolkata,
Howrah, Durgapur, Haldia, Siliguri, Kharagpur, and Dankuni.

Sarkar also believes
Kolkata’s Salt Lake Sector V and New Town are steadily emerging as major
technology and startup destinations in Eastern India. He expects strong demand
for professionals in AI, Cloud Computing, Full Stack Development, Data Analytics,
Cybersecurity, Digital Marketing, and BPO operations.

“West Bengal already
has a strong talent pool and comparatively lower operational costs than many
metro cities. If policy execution remains industry-friendly, many companies may
consider expanding operations here in the coming years,” he added.

Discussing changing
work trends, Sarkar highlighted that remote and hybrid work culture is creating
opportunities for candidates from smaller towns and districts across the state.
He noted that digital hiring models are helping companies recruit skilled
professionals without geographical limitations.

He also emphasized the
importance of skill-based recruitment in the modern employment ecosystem.
“Companies today are focusing less on degrees alone and more on practical
skills, communication ability, AI adaptability, and professional mindset.
Candidates who continuously upgrade themselves will have a clear advantage in
the future job market,” Sarkar said.

Arghya Sarkar is the
Founder of Recruitment Mantra, a leading Recruitment Process Outsourcing (RPO)
firm and free job placement consultancy based in Kolkata. He is also known as a
TEDx Speaker, Author of ‘Recruitopia’, HR &amp; AI Hiring Specialist, Ethical
Hiring Specialist, Public Figure, and Influencer.

Employment analysts
believe that if industrial investments, infrastructure development, startup
growth, and governance reforms continue positively, West Bengal could emerge as
one of Eastern India’s fastest-growing employment markets during 2026–27.

<title>SHAKIRA AND BURNA BOY RELEASE  &amp;apos;DAI DAI,&amp;apos; THE OFFICIAL SONG OF  THE FIFA WORLD CUP 2026 LINKED TO THE FIFA GLOBAL CITIZEN EDUCATION FUND</title>
<link>https://en.newsbolt.in/shakira-and-burna-boy-release-dai-dai-the-official-song-of-the-fifa-world-cup-2026-linked-to-the-fifa-global-citizen-education-fund</link>

<description><![CDATA[ SHAKIRA
TO CO-HEADLINE THE FIFA WORLD CUP 2026™ FINAL HALFTIME SHOW

Miami,
FL : Today, GRAMMY® and Latin GRAMMY®
Award-winning artist Shakira and Burna Boy have released new
track “Dai Dai” via Sony Music Latin. Listen HERE

Shakira
will co-headline the FIFA World Cup 2026™Final Halftime Show on Sunday, July
19, alongside Madonna and BTS. For the first time in FIFA World Cup™ history,
the final will feature a halftime show, bringing together global artists for a
singular moment at the intersection of sport, culture, and purpose, to support
the FIFA Global Citizen Education Fund.

As
announced today at Global Citizen NOW in New York, &#039;Dai Dai&#039; will be the
official anthem of the FIFA Global Citizen Education Fund, which aims to raise
USD $100 million by end of the FIFA World Cup 2026™ to provide children around
the world with access to quality education and sports. Shakira is partnering
with Global Citizen and FIFA to provide access to education for children in
underserved communities with Shakira’s royalties from &#039;Dai Dai&#039; being donated
to the Education Fund, and Sony Music will match the first $250,000 raised with
a donation. Additionally, Shakira is donating $1 from every ticket sold to her
upcoming &#039;Las Mujeres Ya No Lloran&#039; tour to the Education Fund.

“The World Cup is one
of the few things the entire world experiences together,” said Burna Boy.
“Football and music speak the same language. They bring people together no
matter where you’re from and being part of this moment through music means a
lot to me.” 

This
summer, Shakira will hit the road for a special limited run of U.S. dates on
her record-breaking Las Mujeres Ya No Lloran World Tour, giving
fans a rare chance to

see
her electrifying production up close in more intimate arena settings this
summer. Tickets are available at shakira.com. In October, Shakira will headline a 11 night stadium European
residency based in Madrid, with a stadium named ‘Shakira Stadium’ being built
especially for her, and has already sold more than half a million tickets.

In
early May, Shakira captivated an audience of more than 2 million fans at
Copacabana Beach for this year’s Todo Mundo No Rio concert. Shakira, in
a triumphant return to Brazil, where she first began her international touring
career, addressed the crowd in Portuguese throughout the concert and played an
electrifying set filled with her greatest hits spanning her entire career
including “Hips Don’t Lie,” “La Tortura,” and “La Bicicleta.” Shakira’s
historic show paid homage to Brazil as she brought out special guests,
including Anitta, for the debut performance of their new single “Choka Choka,”
“O Leãozinho” with Caetano Veloso, “O Que É, O Que É” with Maria Bethânia and
Unidos da Tijuca, “Waka Waka” with dance group Mare Dance, “Objection” with
Unidos da Tijuca and “País Tropical” with Ivete Sangalo.

Known
as being “the largest concert in the world,” Todo Mundo No Rio is a landmark
event for Rio de Janeiro, celebrating music, culture, and community, for a
completely free price tag. This dazzling spectacle shattered records, becoming
one of the highest attended concerts of all time with 2 million plus people
there to witness this historic moment. Shakira’s performance also broke the
record, generating a large financial impact for the local economy, with a projected
800 million in economic benefits, including a 123% increase in travel bookings

Most
recently, Zara Larsson tapped Shakira to collaborate with her on “Eurosummer”
featured on the deluxe edition of her album Midnight Sun: Girls Trip.

On
top of this, Shakira was crowned by Billboard this year as having
the “highest-grossing Hispanic tour of all time” with her recent Las Mujeres Ya
No Lloran World Tour, achieving a gross revenue of $421.6 million, inclusive of
82 stadium shows all across the US and Latin America with over 3.3 million
people in attendance.

For Burna Boy, the collaboration marks another
defining global moment in a career that continues to bridge music, sport, and
culture on an unprecedented scale. Widely recognised as one of the most influential
African artists of his generation, Burna Boy has become synonymous with
stadium-level performance, global musical fusion, and the international rise of
African music and culture. From headlining arenas and stadiums across the world
to performing at the NBA All-Star Game and building major partnerships at the
intersection of music and sport, Burna Boy continues to redefine what global
African artistry looks like at the highest level. Burna Boy is currently in the
midst of an expansive international run that continues to cement his position
as one of the world’s leading live performers and cultural voices.

<title>BAYARD VACATIONS UNVEILS INDIA’S FIRST FULL&#45;LOOP AI&#45;POWERED PREMIUM TRAVEL TECH PLATFORM</title>
<link>https://en.newsbolt.in/bayard-vacations-unveils-indias-first-full-loop-ai-powered-premium-travel-tech-platform</link>
<guid>https://en.newsbolt.in/bayard-vacations-unveils-indias-first-full-loop-ai-powered-premium-travel-tech-platform</guid>
<description><![CDATA[ Bengaluru, 16 May 2026 : Bayard Vacations, headquartered in Nandini Layout, Bengaluru, today formally
announced its brand positioning as India’s first full-loop AI-powered premium
travel tech platform — a milestone that reframes the company’s identity from a
Bengaluru tour operator to a nationally scaled, technology-led travel company
operating at the frontier of artificial intelligence and personalised human
service.

The announcement marks a defining moment in
India’s travel industry: an Indian-built travel company designing and rolling
out a proprietary AI stack covering the entire customer journey — from first
inquiry to post-trip review — without sacrificing the human depth that premium
travel demands. Three core AI products are already live and serving travellers;
two further modules and the company’s public Book Now experience are in
final-stage development and entering public release in the coming weeks.

With over 25,000 travellers served, a 4.8-star
average customer rating, access to 100+ destinations, and 500+
curated travel packages, Bayard Vacations has built a strong reputation for
delivering personalised and seamless travel experiences at scale.

The Founder’s Vision:
Technology and Human Care as One Promise

At the heart of Bayard Vacations’ identity is
its Founder and Chief Executive Officer, Chethan Kumar NP, whose
founding philosophy is both simple and disruptive: the best travel experience
is not one where artificial intelligence replaces the human touch — it is one
where AI makes human expertise extraordinary.

Chethan Kumar NP built Bayard Vacations around
the conviction that India’s travel industry was leaving its most valuable
customers underserved — not because of a lack of talent, but because of a lack
of infrastructure that could scale personalisation without sacrificing warmth.
His answer was a ground-up proprietary AI ecosystem, designed so that every
client receives a response that feels individually crafted, not algorithmically
generated.

“Indian travellers are
no longer willing to choose between speed and depth. They want an itinerary
built precisely for them — and they want to know there is a real expert on the
other end who genuinely understands what matters. At Bayard, AI does not
replace our people. It makes them extraordinary. That is not a feature. That is
our entire philosophy.”

— CHETHAN KUMAR NP |
FOUNDER &amp; CEO, BAYARD VACATIONS

“Most operators are forced to choose a lane,”
Chethan Kumar NP has noted. “Either they go fully digital and lose the human
connection that makes travel meaningful, or they stay relationship-driven and
can’t scale. We refused that trade-off from day one. The entire architecture of
Bayard is built to hold both — simultaneously, without compromise.”

This refusal to compromise is the defining
thread running through every product, every client interaction, and every
operational decision at Bayard Vacations. It is, in Chethan Kumar NP’s words, “not
a positioning exercise — it is the only way we know how to build.”

India’s First Full-Loop
AI Travel Ecosystem: Five Integrated Products

Bayard Vacations operates what it defines as
the Full-Loop AI Ecosystem — a proprietary suite of five integrated
technology products covering every stage of the travel customer journey. Three
products are currently live in production; two further modules are in
final-stage development and entering public release imminently.

1. AI
ITINERARY HUB — PERSONALISED TRAVEL PLANS IN 60 SECONDS (Live)

Bayard’s signature product generates fully
customised, beautifully formatted travel itineraries within 60 seconds of a
traveller entering their preferences — complete with day-by-day breakdowns,
hotel options across star categories, transparent pricing tables, and
downloadable PDFs. A lead converts to a buyer the moment they see a plan built
specifically for them.

2. BAYARD
BUDDY — 24/7 AI CHATBOT FOR INSTANT TRAVEL QUERIES (Live)

Embedded across the Bayard platform and
website, Bayard Buddy answers package queries, checks availability, captures
traveller preferences, and qualifies leads around the clock — escalating to a
human expert only when the conversation requires it. For Gen Z travellers,
Buddy is the entry point. For the sales team, it is the first-line qualifier
that makes every human conversation more productive.

3. CRM
INTELLIGENCE LAYER — ZERO LEADS, ZERO CONTEXT LOST (Live)

The operating backbone of Bayard Vacations.
Every lead is captured, every client interaction is logged, and every follow-up
is contextually rich. No client falls through. No conversation starts cold.

4. BAYARD
VOICE — AI VOICE AGENT FOR SEAMLESS FOLLOW-UP (Launching Soon)

Bayard Voice, the company’s proprietary AI
voice agent, is currently in final-stage development and will enter public
release in the coming weeks. Powered by advanced voice AI, the module is built
to manage outbound pre-sales follow-up, lead nurturing, and post-booking
support at scale — freeing human travel experts to focus entirely on high-value
consultation and relationship building.

5. BAYARD
APP — THE SELF-SERVE TRAVEL COMMAND CENTRE (Launching in 1–2 Months)

The Bayard App, the client-facing mobile
experience, is in final build and scheduled for public launch within the next
one to two months. The app will enable self-serve package browsing, AI
itinerary customisation, booking progress tracking, and real-time support
access for travellers who want speed and control.

New: Public Book Now
Rollout — Three Booking Paths on One Platform

In line with the upcoming app launch, Bayard
Vacations will shortly open its Book Now experience to public access,
giving travellers a choice between three booking paths on the same platform —
designed to serve every kind of traveller, from the AI-native self-planner to
the traveller who wants the comfort of a curated, ready-to-book package.

1.    
AI-Driven Itinerary Booking
— Travellers receive a fully personalised itinerary in 60 seconds via the AI
Itinerary Hub and can book directly from the generated plan.

2.    
Traditional Book Now —
One-click booking on Bayard’s 500+ curated, expert-built packages, for
travellers who want a faster, more conventional path.

3.    
DIY Customisation —
Build-your-own journey, where travellers configure destinations, durations,
hotel tiers, and inclusions before confirming.

This three-path approach is a deliberate
design decision: rather than forcing every traveller into a single funnel,
Bayard’s platform meets them where they are.

The Full-Loop Promise —
From First Enquiry to Final Memory

Bayard Vacations is building an end-to-end
AI-enabled travel ecosystem that streamlines the entire customer journey —
AI-powered lead qualification and expert-assisted sales, intelligent itinerary
creation, booking support, pre-travel assistance, on-ground operations, in-trip
concierge services, review capture, and automated customer re-engagement. With
three products live and two more launching imminently, the full loop will be
operational end-to-end within the coming weeks.

Riding India’s Most
Powerful Travel Technology Wave

Bayard Vacations’ positioning arrives at a
defining inflection point for global travel technology. The AI-driven travel
experience personalisation market — growing at a CAGR of 21.8% — is projected
to expand from USD 2.74 billion in 2024 to USD 16.23 billion by 2033. Online
travel platforms leveraging AI for hyper-personalised experiences are growing
at the fastest rate in the industry, at a CAGR of 24.32% through 2032.

India’s domestic travel market is experiencing
a parallel surge, with Gen Z’s global purchasing power expected to reach $12
trillion by 2030 and over 85% of Gen Z travellers actively seeking personalised
travel offers. Bayard Vacations’ dual-audience platform serves both Gen Z
Explorers who want AI-crafted speed and self-serve control, and Millennial
Experience Seekers who demand premium depth and end-to-end handling —
capturing both on one platform, without compromise.

How Bayard Vacations
Stands Apart From Every Competitor

Bayard Vacations occupies a defensible
position that no single competitor currently matches. The competitive moat is
not any one product — it is the integrated full-loop AI ecosystem running on
top of proven Indian ground operations.

Bayard Vacations positions itself at the
intersection of technology and personalised travel by combining a
phased-rollout AI-powered travel ecosystem with expert human support. Unlike
traditional tour operators and large OTAs, the company delivers faster,
smarter, and highly customised travel planning while retaining a dedicated
human touch for complex itineraries. Its India-rooted operational strength
further differentiates it from international AI travel platforms, enabling
seamless on-ground execution alongside premium, concierge-style experiences
delivered at scale.

<title>HOAG and BITS BioCyTiH Foundation Launch Applied AI Program for Students Aged 12 to 17</title>
<link>https://en.newsbolt.in/hoag-and-bits-biocytih-foundation-launch-applied-ai-program-for-students-aged-12-to-17</link>
<guid>https://en.newsbolt.in/hoag-and-bits-biocytih-foundation-launch-applied-ai-program-for-students-aged-12-to-17</guid>
<description><![CDATA[  

India,
16th May, 2026: HOAG, in collaboration with BITS BioCyTiH
Foundation (BBF), the deep-tech and innovation initiative of BITS Pilani, has
announced the launch of the Certificate Program in Applied Artificial
Intelligence, a fully online, three-month immersive program designed for
students aged 12 to 17. This online program falls under HOAG’s Future
Essentials category which focuses on future-forward critical competencies for
young learners.

Despite
growing awareness around AI, structured and application-driven learning opportunities
for school students remain limited to basic theory and simplified exposure that
yield no real outcome. Students rarely gain access to environments that
introduce them to the architectures, workflows, systems thinking, and
real-world applications that power modern Artificial Intelligence today.

HOAG
and BITS BioCyTiH Foundation developed the program to bridge this gap through a
rigorous and future-facing learning model that mirrors the way AI increasingly
operates across universities, innovation ecosystems, startups, and professional
environments. The curriculum enables students to understand the fundamentals of
machine learning, train and evaluate models, and build practical AI solutions
through hands-on learning experiences and contemporary no-code and low-code
platforms.

The
Applied AI program launches a transformative 50-hour curriculum designed
to evolve teenagers from AI consumers into active creators through a
structured framework. The journey begins with basics of how machines see and
learn, progresses into generative AI and intelligent automation , and
culminates in a Capstone Incubator where they turn their own ideas into working
prototypes. Our unique pedagogy emphasizes &quot;hand-holding&quot; over
passive assistance wherein expert mentors facilitate breakout rooms to
guide students as they independently construct their own models, prompts, and
workflows. This immersive environment blends collaborative design thinking with
innovative brainstorming, empowering students and faculty to transform conceptual
ideas into tech prototypes for a final professional showcase.

This
online program positions AI as a multidisciplinary field that intersects with
creativity, communication, ethics, design thinking, entrepreneurship, systems
analysis, and decision-making. Students will engage with concepts and workflows
that typically remain inaccessible at the school level, including intelligent
automation systems, generative media creation, AI-assisted workflows, prompt
structuring, model behavior, responsible deployment, and human-centered
innovation.

VN Chopra, Founder of HOAG, said: “Young learners today are capable thinkers
and builders and not passive recipients of simplified technological education.
They interact with Artificial Intelligence constantly, but very few get the
opportunity to understand how these systems actually function, how they
influence industries, or how they can be applied creatively and responsibly. We
designed this program to create a level of depth, structure, and practical
engagement that students in this age group rarely encounter. The objective is
to expose learners to the realities of modern AI systems through serious,
application-oriented learning that encourages experimentation, independent
thinking, and innovation.”

Dr.
Anil Wali, CEO of BITS BioCyTiH Foundation, said: “Artificial Intelligence will
shape the future academic, professional, and entrepreneurial journeys of
today’s students across disciplines and industries. Meaningful exposure to AI
at an early stage requires far more than theoretical awareness. Students must
engage with systems, experimentation, application, and responsible innovation
in structured ways. This program creates an intellectually engaging environment
where learners can explore how modern AI technologies operate and how they can
contribute thoughtfully to a rapidly evolving world.”

The
inaugural cohort of the program will commence on August 1st, 2026. Applications
for the program will open in mid-June 2026.

National, 15 May 2026 : Canon India, a leader in digital imaging
solutions, today announced the launch of the imageFORCE C3150, a
high-performance A3 colour multifunction device purpose-built for enterprises,
SMEs, government organisations and copy shop owners. Offering high-speed colour
output of up to 50 pages per minute, the imageFORCE C3150 delivers consistent
quality, reliability and media flexibility to support demanding, high-volume
print environments. Through this launch, Canon aims to expand its footprint
across key verticals and new markets, drive incremental market share, and build
on its No.1 position in the laser copier market for 10 consecutive years.

Further strengthening its document digitisation portfolio,
Canon India also launched the imageFORMULA DR-C340 and DR-C350 ultra-compact
high-speed document scanners. Designed for fast, accurate and reliable capture,
the scanners enable enterprises, SMEs and government organisations to
efficiently digitise high volumes of documents and streamline information
workflows. With seamless system integration and advanced image processing, the
DR-C340/DR-C350 support faster decision-making and enterprise-wide digital
transformation.

Speaking on the launch,
Mr. Toshiaki Nomura, President &amp; CEO, Canon India, said, “At

portfolio to stay ahead of the evolving needs of enterprises, institutions and
businesses across India. The launch of the imageFORCE C3150 A3 colour MFD

accelerating document digitisation and information workflows. Together, these
solutions reflect our future-ready approach to driving productivity, expanding
our presence across key verticals and strengthening our market share in India’s
laser copier segment.”

Sharing his views on
the new launches, Mr. C. Sukumaran, Vice President, Canon India, said, “In
India’s highly competitive business and commercial print environment, colour
quality, speed and consistency directly influence customer trust and long-term
growth. The imageFORCE C3150 has been developed with a deep understanding of
these market realities, enabling enterprises, SMEs and commercial print
customers to deliver reliable, high-quality colour output across everyday jobs
while expanding their application capabilities.”

He further added, “Complementing
this, the imageFORMULA DR-C340 and DR-C350 scanners address the accelerating
demand for document digitisation across government, enterprise and SME
segments. Together, these solutions help organisations streamline document
workflows, improve operational efficiency and build scalable, future-ready
information environments aligned with India’s digital transformation journey.”

imageFORCE
C3150: Key Features and Capabilities

Smarter Colour Printing
with D² Exposure Technology

A key differentiator of
the imageFORCE C3150 is Canon’s D² Exposure (Defined &amp; Detailed)
Technology, which uses an advanced OLED (Organic Light Emitting Diode)
exposure system instead of conventional laser technology.

●       
Extreme resolution for professional output: The
OLED-based exposure system delivers a class-leading resolution of up to 4,800
× 2,400 dpi, producing sharper text, smoother gradations, and finely
detailed lines.

●       
Reliable and consistent colour reproduction: Precise
alignment of CMYK layers minimises colour variation, ensuring deep blacks,
vibrant tones, and stable colour output across repeat jobs.

Media Versatility for
Expanded Print Applications

The imageFORCE C3150 is
designed to maintain colour integrity across a range of professional media
types.

●       
Support for heavy and coated stocks: Handles
paper weights of up to 300 gsm, enabling in-house production of premium
brochures, flyers and promotional materials.

●       
SRA3 support: Enables
printing on SRA3 sheet sizes, allowing full-bleed A3 output with crop
marks—an important requirement for commercial print businesses.

High-Speed Colour
Scanning for End-to-End Workflows

The imageFORCE C3150
also supports high-performance scanning to address integrated document
workflows.

●       
Single-pass duplex scanning: Capable
of scanning at speeds of up to 270 images per minute, enabling fast
digitisation without compromising clarity.

●       
High-fidelity colour capture: Maintains
accurate colour reproduction even during high-volume scanning.

imageFORMULA
DR-C340 &amp; DR-C350: Key Features and Capabilities

Further strengthening
Canon India’s business imaging ecosystem, the imageFORMULA DR-C340 and
DR-C350 document scanners are designed to support fast, accurate, and
space-efficient document digitisation.

●       
High-speed scanning for improved productivity:
The DR-C340 delivers scanning speeds of up to 40 pages per minute and
80 images per minute, while the DR-C350 offers up to 50 pages per minute and
100 images per minute, supported by a 100-sheet automatic document feeder. This
enables organisations to handle higher document volumes efficiently, addressing
productivity requirements in enterprise and government environments.

●       
Flexible document handling across sectors: The
scanners support a wide range of document types including receipts, ID cards,
passports and long documents, making them suitable for use across sectors such
as government, financial services, healthcare, hospitality and education, where
document diversity and accuracy are critical.

●       
Compact design for space-constrained environments:
Built with a compact footprint, the scanners are designed for small
offices, branch locations and front-office environments. With intuitive
controls and advanced image processing capabilities, they ensure ease of use
while delivering clear and accurate scans.

Together, these
additions reinforce Canon India’s focus on expanding its business imaging
portfolio and addressing evolving customer needs across segments. By combining
high-quality output, media flexibility and efficient digitisation, Canon aims
to enable businesses to improve productivity, expand capabilities and drive
growth.

<title>G Square Group officially hands over 19.43 acres of land in Coimbatore to the TTD Board for the proposed temple project</title>

<guid>https://en.newsbolt.in/g-square-group-officially-hands-over-1943-acres-of-land-in-coimbatore-to-the-ttd-board-for-the-proposed-temple-project</guid>
<description><![CDATA[  

Coimbatore,
15th May 2026 : In a significant development for devotees in
Tamil Nadu, the Tirumala Tirupati Devasthanams Trust Board officials today
(14th May 2026) received the land handover documents from G Square Group at G
Square Seven Hills City in Kovaipudur, Coimbatore, marking a major milestone in
the establishment of a proposed temple project in the region.

This
follows the TTD Board&#039;s recent approval of the acquisition of 19.43 acres of
land, valued at ₹388 crore, generously donated by G Square Group for the
construction of the new temple in Coimbatore. The resolution was passed during
a Board meeting convened at Annamayya Bhavan, Tirumala, under the chairmanship
of Sri B.R. Naidu. With the land handover now completed, the property will
officially become part of the Board’s assets, and work related to planning and
developing the temple project is expected to begin soon.

The
proposed temple is expected to emerge as one of the most significant spiritual
landmarks in western Tamil Nadu, strengthening Coimbatore’s position as a growing
spiritual and cultural destination. For lakhs of devotees across Coimbatore,
Tiruppur, Erode, Nilgiris and neighbouring districts, the development is seen
as a moment of immense devotional and emotional significance. 



Over
the years, Coimbatore has steadily evolved into a city that blends industrial
growth with spirituality and wellness. Known for iconic spiritual destinations
such as Isha Yoga Center, Marudamalai Murugan Temple, Perur Pateeswarar Temple
and Adiyogi, the city continues to attract pilgrims, tourists, seekers and
international visitors throughout the year. The addition of a proposed TTD
temple is expected to further enhance the city’s spiritual ecosystem and
reinforce its reputation as a prominent pilgrimage hub in South India.

Industry
observers believe the project could also create a strong ripple effect across
tourism, hospitality, infrastructure and local commerce in the region.
Large-scale temple developments often contribute to increased visitor footfall,
improved connectivity, rise in small businesses, employment generation and the
growth of supporting sectors such as hotels, restaurants, retail outlets and
transport services.

Experts
point out that spiritual tourism has become one of India’s fastest-growing
travel segments, with temple towns witnessing consistent growth in both
domestic and international visitors. In Tamil Nadu particularly, cities with
strong spiritual and cultural identities continue to attract investments,
infrastructure upgrades and commercial activity driven by sustained pilgrim
movement.

With
the handover formalities now completed, anticipation is steadily building
around the next phase of the project, which is expected to include planning,
design and development activities in the coming months. ]]></description>

<title>Leading through uncertainty: How UWA’s global MBA along with IIMK Certificate is helping managers navigate today&amp;apos;s dynamic business landscape</title>

<description><![CDATA[  

According to a 2025
report on the State of AI by McKinsey, nearly 88% of organisations are
investing and reporting active AI use cases in at least one business function,
yet very few are seeing meaningful business impact. The gap isn’t in access to
technology. It’s in how professionals think, decide, and lead. For early and
mid-career professionals, this shift is already visible. Roles are expanding
faster than skills, and expectations are moving beyond execution into strategy,
judgement, and cross-functional thinking. Leadership is no longer something you
grow into overtime. It’s something you need to actively build. This is where
global MBA programs are becoming increasingly relevant, offering a structured
way to develop the strategic outlook needed to stay ahead.

The
University of Western Australia’s (UWA) global MBA, delivered with
IIM Kozhikode certification, is built around this reality.
Designed for working professionals, it allows you to step back without stepping
away from your career. The program combines global academic rigour with
practical insight drawn from real business situations. Instead of focusing on
theory alone, it helps you understand how decisions are made in environments
shaped by data, AI, and global markets. The learning is designed to fit into
your work, so what you gain can be applied immediately, not later. For
professionals in the early stages of their career, the program helps build
strong business fundamentals and a global perspective that would otherwise take
years to develop. For mid-career professionals, often at a transition point, it
sharpens strategic thinking and strengthens their ability to take on leadership
responsibilities. Many find that it helps them move from being functional
experts to broader business leaders, with opportunities that extend beyond
their current scope.

What does the learning
journey look like?

Learners begin with a
Professional Certification in Advanced Business Management from IIM Kozhikode,
building strong foundations in strategy, leadership, and managerial
decision-making. 

Upon successful
completion, the learning experience progresses to the global MBA offered by UWA, where this foundation is
extended into a truly international context. UWA’s global MBA broadens
perspective through strategy, leadership, and decision-making frameworks,
enabling learners to operate confidently across markets, cultures, and complex
global organisations.

Global credibility you
can trust

The program’s track record adds to its credibility. With 13
cohorts consisting of more than
1,800 participants across industries and regions, it reflects sustained demand
from working
professionals. UWA is ranked #1 in Western Australia and 77th in the
world (QS 2026), reinforcing the program’s global standing. On completion, you
also earn UWA alumni status, connecting you to a global network of over 155,000
professionals. This becomes a long-term asset, offering access to
opportunities, insights, and connections beyond the program itself.

What makes this
learning experience different?

A key part of the
experience comes from the cohort. You learn alongside professionals from
different industries, roles, and geographies, which adds depth to every
discussion. Real challenges from the workplace become part of the learning
process, making it practical and relevant. This exchange often becomes one of
the most valuable aspects of the program, helping you see problems from multiple
perspectives and make better decisions in your own role.

The next growth phase
for managers

Management education is
no longer about taking a break from work. It’s about building the capability to
perform better within it. UWA’s global MBA reflects this shift.
It focuses on helping you think more strategically, act with greater clarity,
and stay relevant in a business environment that is constantly changing.

We often search for
the secrets to a balanced life in textbooks or expensive seminars, but the most
profound guidance is actually waiting right outside our window. Birds navigate
the world with an effortless yet disciplined rhythm that we have largely forgotten
in our modern rush. By observing how they build, nurture and eventually let go,
we can rediscover something simpler, more natural way to raise our children and
protect our own well-being.

Let us explore the
“Nest Strategy” which is a realistic, bird inspired approach to build a
strong foundation and raise capable and independent children:

 


 One Small Step: The Single Twig concept - A bird’s nest is a miracle of engineering, yet it is built one
     tiny piece at a time. It doesn&#039;t worry about the whole nest at once, it
     only focuses on the one twig in its beak. When we face an overwhelming
     goal may be a career shift or a difficult parenting phase, stop looking at
     the mountain. Focus on the single twig i.e. the one small, manageable task
     you can do today. Thousands of small steps eventually create a home that
     can withstand a storm.
 Letting
     Go - We often try to smooth the path for our
     children but birds do the opposite, they eventually make the nest
     uncomfortable or physically push the fledgling out. They know that a bird
     that is never challenged will never trust its own wings. 


Children need to face small challenges to grow
strong. For instance, if your child is struggling to tie their shoe laces or
clean their room, do not jump in immediately to do it for them. Let them try
the task for a few minutes. This small frustration is exactly how they learn to
trust their own hands.


 Following
     Nature&#039;s Clock - Birds don&#039;t use alarm clocks or
     cell phones, they simply follow the sun. When the sun goes down, they
     settle in and rest so they have energy for the next day. At night, our
     homes are often filled with bright overhead lights, TVs and tablets. This
     ‘fake sunlight’ tricks our brains into staying awake, making everyone
     tired and grumpy. 


So parents, once it is dark outside, start dimming
the lights inside and put the screens away. This tells your body and your
child&#039;s body that it is time to wind up. It makes falling asleep much easier
and helps everyone wake up feeling refreshed.

 


 Life
     Skills Over Material World - A bird with a
     golden nest but weak wings is a sitting duck for predators. Similarly, a
     child with every material advantage but no practical life skills lacks the
     “wings” necessary to navigate a changing economic or social
     landscape. 


Spending time with children, teaching them real
life skills. These wings (their skills) will help them for the rest of their
lives, while twigs (their toys) will eventually be forgotten or broken.


 Focusing on the Essentials - Birds don&#039;t hoard more food or materials than they can use, they
     take just enough to stay strong and keep the nest safe. They don&#039;t weigh
     themselves down with extra stuff. As parents we often feel pressured to
     give our kids everything: every toy, every trendy clothes and every
     expensive gadget, thinking it makes their life better.


Focusing
on the essentials is very important. A child who has ‘just enough’ high quality
attention and basic needs met is often happier and less distracted than a child
overwhelmed by too many possessions. By keeping life simple, you teach them to
value experiences and people over ‘things’.

 

The ultimate goal
of ‘Nest Strategy’ is its own obsolescence - the moment the nest is
empty, the sky is full. As parents, we shouldn&#039;t just build a comfortable house
but raise a child who is strong enough and skilled enough to leave the nest and
fly on their own.

individuality, comfort, and elevated presentation for one of the country’s
most-watched live sporting broadcasts.

Speaking about the
collaboration, Sairam Krishnamurthy, CEO, Bombay Shirt Company, said, “Cricket
today exists far beyond the game itself. It sits at the intersection of
culture, entertainment, and personality. JioStar has built an incredibly
engaging cricket viewing experience, and we saw this as an opportunity to

to create looks that felt effortless, authentic, and reflective of each

audiences. 

The partnership
reflects JioStar’s continued focus on elevating every aspect of the viewer
experience, where presentation, personality, and storytelling come together
to create deeper audience engagement beyond the game itself. 

Speaking about the
partnership, Siddharth Sharma, Content Head – Sports, JioStar, said, “Great
storytellers need to tell their stories from the very first moment audiences
lay their eyes on them. Styling adds sharpness, credibility, and personality,
making the viewing experience more engaging. At JioStar, we wanted our on-air
talent to reflect the premium energy of this summer cricket carnival - a time
when summer fashion truly comes alive. It felt like a very natural fit to bring
BSC on board at the intersection of sports and culture.”

To bring the
partnership alive, the BSC team worked closely with the broadcast talent to
understand individual personalities, preferences, and on-screen presence.
Each look was thoughtfully curated to feel authentic to the wearer while
maintaining a cohesive visual identity across the broadcast.

As the season unfolds,
audiences will continue to see a more elevated and immersive viewing experience
where style, personality, and storytelling become as engaging as the action
itself.

<guid>https://en.newsbolt.in/a-new-intellectual-voice-on-indias-future-dr-monica-b-sood-debuts-with-the-economic-dna-of-bharat</guid>
<description><![CDATA[ ABOUT THE
BOOK

Simon &amp; Schuster
India and The Sunflower Seeds are proud to
announce the release of The Economic DNA of Bharat, a landmark
work by Dr. Monica B. Sood that transcends conventional economic
analysis to offer a sweeping vision of India&#039;s past, present, and future. Part
civilisational biography, part strategic blueprint, and part personal
testament, the book charts a bold course for Bharat&#039;s emergence as a global
superpower by the centenary of its independence in 2047. 

Endorsed by Hon’ble
Ministers, Policy Makers and Senior Bureaucrats including featuring a Foreword
by Sh. Arjun Ram Meghwal Union Minister of Law and Justice, Sh. Gulab Chand
Kataria, Hon’ble Governor of Punjab &amp; Administrator Chandigarh,  Sh. Kiren Rijiju Union Minister of
Parliamentary Affairs, and Prof. S.P. Singh Baghel Minister of Dairying,
Animal Husbandry &amp; Panchayti Raj, the book arrives at a pivotal moment
in the nation&#039;s history, when India is already the world&#039;s fastest-growing
major economy and is poised to reshape the global order.

CRITICAL
ACCLAIM

The book has also
received endorsements from senior members of the Union Cabinet, including Sh.
Gulab Chand Kataria, Hon’ble Governor of Punjab &amp; Administrator
Chandigarh, Sh. Arjun Ram Meghwal, Hon’ble Union Minister for Law and
Justice who has written the Foreword for the book; Sh. Kiren Rijiju,
Hon’ble Union Minister of Parliamentary Affairs and Minority Affairs; and Sh.
Prof. S.P. Singh Baghel, Hon’ble Union Minister of State for Fisheries,
Animal Husbandry and Dairying &amp; Panchayti Raj and Sh. Jatinder Pal
Malhotra, State President BJP, Chandigarh. The book arrives at a pivotal
moment in India’s growth story, as the nation continues to emerge as the
world’s fastest-growing major economy.

&quot;The Economic DNA
of Bharat is not just a work of economics—it is a vision document that fuses
history, policy, spirituality, and civilisational wisdom into a deeply personal
and nationalistic narrative.&quot; — Dr A.S. Chawla, IPS

&quot;It&#039;s a rare
work—heartfelt, insightful, and deeply rooted in India&#039;s essence.&quot; —
Kiren Rijiju, Union Minister of Parliamentary Affairs 

“I am pleased to see
the publication of “The Economic DNA of Bharat-At a time when the nation is
moving forward with the goal of Viksit Bharat@2047. The Book clearly explains
the journey of India’s Economy”- Jatinder Pal Malhotra, State President BJP,
Chandigarh 

AUTHOR&#039;S
VISION 

&quot;Economic freedom
is not measured by immediate headline numbers, but by the dignity of labour,
the resilience of institutions, and the ability of every citizen to chart a
life of purpose,&quot; writes Dr. Sood, drawing on the
intellectual legacy of her late father, the visionary economist and diplomat Paramjit
Kumar—who engaged with Mahatma Gandhi on the eve of Partition and served as
a special envoy under His Holiness the Dalai Lama. 

Dr. Sood&#039;s
central argument is that Bharat&#039;s economy is not a manufactured system borrowed
from elsewhere, but a living organism whose roots extend into prehistory. True
development, she insists, must be measured not only in GDP but in how well it
honours civilisational heritage, social equity, and holistic human well-being.

A WORD
FROM THE COLLABORATORS

Speaking about the
publication of the book, Preeti Chaturvedi, the Founder &amp; CEO, At the
Sunflower Seeds, said, “We believe publishing should create space for
new voices that can contribute meaningfully to India’s literary and
intellectual culture. The Economic DNA of Bharat stood out to us because
it explores how government policies have created real economic impact while
also reflecting the spirit and identity of the nation. As a debut author, Monica
B. Sood brings a fresh and thoughtful perspective, and we are proud to
support writers who are shaping important contemporary conversations through
their work.” 

Ambika Sharma,
the editor of the book at Simon &amp; Schuster India, acquired the
manuscript because “It is deeply insightful book that traces the tapestry of
our nation’s emergence on the global forefront while charting the roadmap of a
superpower in the making.”

WHAT THE
BOOK COVERS

Spanning ten richly
researched chapters, The Economic DNA of Bharat examines India&#039;s
economic journey from the Indus-Saraswati Civilisation and the principles of
Kautilya&#039;s Arthashastra, through colonial extraction and post-Independence
socialism, to the transformative reforms of liberalisation and the digital
revolution of the 21st century.

Key themes include:

Economy and Finance:
India&#039;s path from the ₹500 lakh crore aspiration to a $5 trillion economy,
tackling unemployment, inflation, and skill mismatches through Skill India,
Make in India, and Digital India.

Defence and Security:
How indigenous defence manufacturing, advanced technology, and
strategic partnerships are reshaping India&#039;s security posture for 2047.

Education and Human
Capital: The imperative of
converting India&#039;s demographic dividend into an innovation engine capable of
global leadership.

Technology and
Innovation: India&#039;s AI, fintech, and space-exploration
ecosystem as instruments of civilisational confidence.

Agriculture and
Sustainability: A regenerative economic model that balances
growth with ecological stewardship.

Geopolitics and Global
Influence: India&#039;s soft power—from Ayurveda and yoga to
diplomatic alliances—as strategic assets in a multipolar world.

A final chapter, &#039;India
at 2047: The Final Leap to Global Leadership&#039;, synthesises short-term,
mid-term, and long-term roadmaps into a unified vision of Viksit Bharat.

<title>Goregaon East Emerges as Mumbai’s Next Growth Epicentre in MMR’s Evolving Urban Landscape</title>

<description><![CDATA[  

Mumbai, May 15, 2026 : Micro-markets
backed by strong infrastructure, seamless connectivity, and expanding business
ecosystems are reshaping Mumbai’s real estate landscape. As the city continues
to emerge beyond its traditional commercial spaces, Goregaon East has emerged
as one of the Mumbai Metropolitan Region’s (MMR) most promising locations for
mixed-use and commercial development. Driven by a wave of integrated projects
spanning office spaces, retail, hospitality, and residential offerings, the
micro-market is rapidly turning into a dynamic destination for businesses,
investors, and urban consumers.

In the past few years, Goregaon East has seen rapid growth
as it has turned into a prominent mixed-use and commercial hub, anchored by
strong social and business infrastructure. The micro-market is home to many
established commercial landmarks, premium hotels, large-format retail
destinations, and entertainment hubs. This has helped in creating a
well-rounded urban ecosystem with Goregaon East that supports both business and
lifestyle needs.

Strategically located along the Western Express Highway,
coupled with connectivity through Mumbai Metro Lines 2A and 7 and the suburban
railway network, has further strengthened its appeal among corporates,
developers, and investors. The presence of integrated developments combining
office spaces, retail, hospitality, and residential components is also
redefining the area as a high-growth destination within Mumbai’s evolving real
estate landscape.

Goregaon’s connectivity matrix is being strengthened by
transformative projects such as the Goregaon–Mulund Link Road and coastal road
extensions, which are expected to significantly reduce travel time to key
business districts. Time taken to reach the office blocks within Bandra-Kurla
Complex (BKC) is projected to fall to under 20 minutes, while South Mumbai
could be accessible within 40 minutes, making Goregaon East a compelling choice
for the working-class seeking proximity without compromising on liveability.

Beyond connectivity, Goregaon East is witnessing a surge in
redevelopment projects and integrated township developments. The presence of
commercial hubs such as NESCO IT Park and its proximity to Film City are
catalysing employment generation, further fuelling residential demand. Rental
yields are estimated to be 20–25% higher than several central suburbs, as the
micro-market is increasingly attracting both investors and end-users seeking
mid-to-luxury housing options available in Goregaon East.

Commenting on the urban evolution of Goregaon East, Hardik
Pandit, Director, APICES Studio Pvt. Ltd, says, “This
is a suburb that represents a critical shift in how Mumbai is approaching high-density
growth. The focus in Goregaon East pocket is not just on vertical expansion,
but on creating integrated, human-centric environments. This is a location that
thrives on mobility, open spaces, and sustainable coexistence. Such
planning-led development ensures that Goregaon remains resilient and adaptable
as urban pressures continue to rise.”

From a development perspective, the suburb’s growth story is
being further reinforced by projects that align with modern urban aspirations. Ruchit
Mehta, Partner, Mehta Realty, highlighted Goregaon East’s evolving residential
appeal, stating, “Having been closely involved in Mumbai’s evolving real
estate landscape, we have witnessed how infrastructure-led growth can transform
micro-markets into thriving urban ecosystems. Today’s homebuyers seek
well-connected, highly liveable neighbourhoods that seamlessly integrate work,
lifestyle, and community. Goregaon East stands out as a shining example of this
shift. It has rapidly emerged as one of Suburban Mumbai’s most desirable
residential destinations, supported by a strong social infrastructure of
reputed schools, healthcare, retail hubs, and green spaces. The strategic
location it is in ensures seamless connectivity via the Western Express
Highway, key arterial roads, and expanding metro corridors, ensuring effortless
access across the city. I see Goregaon East at a decisive point where
liveability, connectivity, and future-ready infrastructure are converging to
create a premium residential ecosystem, with strong long-term value. The
momentum we are witnessing today reinforces our confidence that Goregaon East
will play a pivotal role in shaping Mumbai’s next phase of urban renewal.”

From an advisory standpoint, the investment potential of the
micro-market remains strong. Porush Jhunjhunwala, CEO, Banke International
Properties, notes, “Observing from an investment lens, Goregaon East has
moved into a more stable and growth-oriented cycle. This is supported by
tangible infrastructure delivery rather than future projections alone. This is
attracting a more discerning investor base, with a focus on long-term capital
preservation and steady appreciation, which is a strong indicator of Goregaon’s
market maturity.”

From a commercial real estate perspective, Goregaon East
continues to gain traction as a preferred mixed-use business hub, supported by
strong connectivity and evolving premium commercial infrastructure.

Commenting on this trend, Mr. Vikash Kawar, Director of
AGM Vijaylaxmi Group said, “Goregaon East is increasingly emerging as a
preferred destination for businesses and HNI investors, driven by strong
infrastructure upgrades, seamless metro and road connectivity, and the
evolution of integrated mixed-use developments. The micro-market is witnessing
growing interest from occupiers seeking high-quality office spaces with
superior accessibility and operational efficiency, while investors are
recognising its potential for long-term capital appreciation and stable
returns. As commercial, retail, hospitality, and residential ecosystems
continue to develop in tandem, Goregaon East is well-positioned to evolve into
a future-ready business district aligned with the changing preferences of
corporates and discerning investors. We believe the micro-market will witness
sustained growth in Grade-A office leasing and investment activity over the
coming years.”

In addition to the advantages that infrastructure and
economics have to offer, Goregaon East delivers a balanced lifestyle with
access to green pockets, social infrastructure, and evolving urban amenities.
It represents a transformation that reflects a broader shift in Mumbai’s real
estate growth trajectory based on prioritising decentralisation, connectivity,
and sustainable urban planning.

As infrastructure projects advance and redevelopment
momentum accelerates, Goregaon East is set to emerge as a defining chapter in
Mumbai’s next phase of urban expansion, where it excels by offering an
attractive blend of connectivity, liveability, and long-term investment value,
creating a perfect space for mixed-use and commercial developments. ]]></description>

Family
holidays today are no longer about ticking off one sightseeing spot after
another. Instead, families are choosing to slow down, reconnect and spend
meaningful time together through immersive experiences that broaden their
horizons. It’s this shift, that’s fuelling the growing appeal of holidaying at
sea – where lively entertainment, world-class dining, extensive activities and
multiple destinations come together seamlessly in one effortless getaway.

On
board, every member of a multigenerational family can find something they love,
without the stress of managing travel plans or daily logistics.

If
you’re considering your very first family cruise this year, here are a few
smart NCL tips that will make this holiday a pleasure from start to finish:

Start
Planning Early

One
of the biggest advantages of a cruise holiday is the time it gives you to plan
ahead. Cruise lines typically announce sailings months in advance, so if you
have a destination on your wish list or a particular itinerary in mind, it’s
worth exploring the sailing dates across NCL’s fleet early. Start with your
visa and passport applications and ensure all your travel documents are valid
well in advance.  Planning early not only
gives you peace of mind, but also unlocks the best choice of cabins, your
choice of flight timings, and access to sought after onboard experiences. This
is especially important for families – larger staterooms and connecting cabins
do tend to book out quickly during peak holidays and festive travel periods.
Securing these early can make a huge difference to your overall comfort and
holiday experience.

Choose
an Itinerary That Matches Your Family’s Travel Style

FOMO
(Fear of Missing Out) is real but when it comes to choosing your cruise
itinerary, it’s important not to follow the crowd.  The most popular itinerary isn’t always the
perfect fit for your family. Instead, focus on selecting a cruise experience
that aligns with your family’s interests, pace, and travel style.  Those travelling with younger children may
prefer shorter sailings with more relaxation time onboard, while those with
teenagers may enjoy port-intensive itineraries packed with adventure and
excursions.

Europe
is a popular cruise destination among Indians and NCL’s Summer 2026 deployment
is thoughtfully designed especially to help families explore more of Europe
while managing less, without the hassles of constant packing and unpacking.

Through
November 2026, eight NCL ships — including one of the brand’s newest vessels,
Norwegian Viva — will sail across the Mediterranean, Northern Europe, and the
Greek Isles departing from 11 embarkation ports across 10 European countries.
NCL also offers several seven-day itineraries with fewer sea days, allowing
families to wake up in a new destination almost every day while still enjoying
the flexibility and ease that cruising provides. Select sailings also include
overnight stays in cities like Reykjavik, Copenhagen, and Istanbul, allowing
travellers more time to explore at a relaxed pace.

Prioritise
Comfort

When
travelling far from home on a cruise vacation comfort becomes essential - both
onboard and in your accommodation. For first-time cruisers, cabin selection
plays a key role. After a day of exploring ashore, returning to a spacious,
well-appointed stateroom can make all the different in helping you rest,
recharge and make the most of each day.

For
families, especially those travelling across generations, options such as
connecting rooms, family mini-suites, or balcony cabins are ideal. Booking
cabins closer to dining areas or activity zones can also make moving around the
ship much easier when travelling with children or elderly family members.

The
onboard experience also plays a huge role in ensuring a seamless and enjoyable
holiday. Aboard NCL’s award-winning fleet, families can enjoy flexible dining
options, non-stop entertainment, and activities designed for every generation.
While younger travellers can spend time at Aqua Parks, waterslides, or the
racetrack, adults may prefer relaxing at the award-winning Mandara Spa or
unwinding at quieter adults-only spaces like the Vibe Beach Club. This balance
allows every family member to enjoy the vacation their own way while still
coming together for shared experiences.

Balance
Activities with Downtime

One
of the best parts about cruising is the flexibility it allows you to do as
much, or as little, as you want. 

While
it’s tempting to fill your itinerary with back-to-back shore excursions, a
non-stop schedule can quickly become overwhelming for both children and adults

.
So, make sure you mix busy days with slower moments like quiet family dinners,
live entertainment, pool time, or simply sitting by the deck or balconies
soaking in the ocean views. Cruise holidays work particularly well for families
because everyone can enjoy the trip differently while still spending quality
time together.

Pack
Smart and Pre-Book Key Activities

Cruise
vacations offer a diverse mix of activities from excursions and pool days to
dinners and entertainment, often across multiple climates and time zones, so
packing versatile essentials is a must. Comfortable footwear, lightweight
layers, warmers, sunscreen, chargers, swimwear, and a compact  excursion bag are must-haves for a seamless
trip. It’s also important to reserve popular dining experiences, activities and
shore excursions in advance especially during peak travel periods.  Pre-booking allows you spend less time
logistics onboard and more time to enjoy the experiences.

Start
a New Family Tradition

Choose
this International Day of Families to begin planning your next getaway together
with Norwegian Cruise Line (NCL) and begin a new tradition 

Of
discovering the world, one cruise at a time

<description><![CDATA[ Noida,
India | May 2026 : As engineering
aspirants across India evaluate institutions for B.Tech admissions in 2026,
Jaypee Institute of Information Technology (JIIT), Noida, is gaining strong
consideration for its academic credibility, industry-aligned curriculum, and
consistent placement performance. Located in the National Capital Region (NCR),
JIIT offers a balanced ecosystem of academic rigor, innovation, and corporate
exposure.

Academic Excellence Backed by Accreditations

JIIT Noida has
established a solid academic foundation with its NAAC ‘A’ Grade accreditation,
reflecting high standards in teaching, infrastructure, and institutional
governance. Several of its B.Tech programmes are also accredited by the
National Board of Accreditation (NBA), further reinforcing the institute’s
commitment to outcome-based education and continuous improvement.

These recognitions play
a critical role for students and parents seeking credible institutions that
meet national quality benchmarks while delivering industry-relevant learning.

Placement Outcomes Attracting Top Talent

Placement performance
continues to be a major factor influencing student decisions, and JIIT has
demonstrated strong outcomes in this area. The institute has reported placement
packages reaching approximately ₹94.25 Lakhs , with participation from leading
global and Indian recruiters.

Companies such as
Microsoft, Amazon, Adobe, Google, Atlassian, Intel, Pepsico, Accenture, Goldman
Sachs, and Deloitte are among the recruiters that have engaged with JIIT
students. This consistent placement visibility reflects both the technical
preparedness of students and the institute’s industry connect.

Student-Driven Learning and Technical Communities

Beyond classroom learning,
JIIT promotes active student engagement through technical societies and
professional chapters such as IEEE, ACM, and CSI. Participation in hackathons,
coding competitions, and peer-led initiatives helps students build practical
skills, collaborate on real-world challenges, and stay aligned with evolving
industry trends.

This culture of peer

the technology sector.

Hands-On Learning Through Advanced Facilities

as the AICTE IDEA Lab enable students to prototype and experiment with
innovative solutions, while the Ramanujan Universe High-Performance Computing

complex problem-solving.

Such resources play a
critical role in bridging the gap between academic concepts and real-world
application.

Innovation

<description><![CDATA[ Bhubaneswar : The
announcement of the CBSE Class 12th Result 2026 has brought immense joy and
pride to the ODM Educational Group family as students delivered exceptional
performances across Science, Commerce, and Humanities streams. Continuing its
strong legacy of academic excellence and holistic education, ODM students once
again achieved remarkable results, reflecting the institution’s consistent
focus on nurturing confident, capable, and future-ready learners.

This year’s performance stands as a celebration of hard
work, discipline, and collective effort. More than 173 students scored above
90% in the CBSE Class 12th examinations, highlighting students&#039; dedication and
the continued support of teachers and parents throughout the academic journey.

Medhansh Gupta emerged as the overall topper with an
outstanding 97.8%, setting a remarkable benchmark for academic achievement. He
was closely followed by six students, each of whom secured an impressive 97.6%:
Armaan Kamal Patra, Subham Narayan Sahoo, Sanjana Agrawal, Shanpriyam Behera,
Sukritee Pradhan, and Shradha Suman Swain. Their success reflects not only
academic consistency but also determination, resilience, and focused
preparation.

Expressing his happiness on the occasion, Dr Satyabrata
Minaketan, Chairman of ODM Educational Group, said, “The success of our
students in the CBSE Class 12th Result 2026 reflects their dedication,
determination, and belief in their abilities. Every achievement represents the
combined efforts of students, teachers, and parents who worked together
throughout this journey.”

This year also marked the introduction of CBSE’s On-Screen
Marking (OSM) system for Class XII evaluations, where answer scripts were
digitally scanned and assessed by examiners through computer-based evaluation
platforms. Focusing on the new marking system, Dr Minaketan said, “While
digital evaluation marks a progressive move towards modernising the assessment
process, the outcome this year has left many stakeholders seeking greater
clarity and balance in evaluation standards. We believe every new system
evolves through experience and refinement, and we remain hopeful that future
assessment mechanisms will become more transparent, student-friendly, and
aligned with learners&#039; genuine academic efforts.”

The results once again reflect the strength of ODM’s
CPX methodology, centred on Character, Potential, and Excellence. Through
personalised mentoring, structured academic support, regular assessments, and
continuous doubt-clearing sessions, ODM has consistently nurtured confident
learners prepared to excel both academically and personally. 

Congratulating students and educators across campuses,
Mr Swoyan Satyendu, CEO of ODM Educational Group, stated, “These achievements
reaffirm ODM’s vision of nurturing future leaders equipped with knowledge,
values, and purpose. We are proud of every student who has contributed to this
success story, and we remain committed to empowering young minds to achieve
even greater milestones in the future.”

As celebrations continue across ODM campuses following
the CBSE Class 12th Result 2026, the institution once again reinforces its
philosophy, “Grow with ODM,” inspiring students to move ahead with confidence,
ambition, and a strong sense of purpose.

The Fire That Remakes You: Finding
Strength in an Age of Silent Burnout

By Dr. Siidarth Bhattacharya

In a culture that celebrates constant
achievement yet rarely speaks about emotional collapse, many people today are
carrying invisible exhaustion. Behind professional success, social smiles, and
everyday routines often lie anxiety, heartbreak, burnout, loneliness, and the
quiet struggle to remain emotionally whole. It is within this deeply human
reality that The Fire That Remakes You finds its voice.

More than a conventional self-help title,
the book is a reflective exploration of healing, resilience, and inner
reconstruction. Through the recurring metaphor of fire, Dr. Bhattacharya
examines how painful experiences can either consume an individual or become the
very force that reshapes identity with greater awareness and strength.

“Pain changes people. Conscious healing
remakes them.”

Drawing upon themes of self-awareness,
emotional recovery, and intentional living, the book encourages readers to
pause and examine the parts of themselves often hidden beneath fear, pressure,
or personal disappointment. Rather than offering loud motivational promises,
the writing remains calm, compassionate, and introspective — allowing readers
to engage with difficult emotions in an honest and grounded way.

What makes The Fire That Remakes
You particularly relevant today is its understanding that healing is
not linear. In an age of instant gratification and curated perfection, the book
acknowledges that personal growth often emerges slowly through reflection,
acceptance, and emotional courage. The reflective exercises and
thought-provoking insights woven throughout the chapters transform the reading
experience into a personal dialogue rather than passive consumption.

At its heart, the book carries a timeless
reminder: adversity does not solely define human beings; the meaning they
create from it does. Thoughtful, emotionally resonant, and quietly powerful, The
Fire That Remakes You stands as both a companion for difficult seasons
and an invitation toward deeper self-understanding and renewal.

<title>Why Indian Homes and Offices Are Switching to NAS Storage? Why TPSTech.in Is Where They’re Buying From?</title>
<link>https://en.newsbolt.in/why-indian-homes-and-offices-are-switching-to-nas-storage-why-tpstechin-is-where-theyre-buying-from</link>
<guid>https://en.newsbolt.in/why-indian-homes-and-offices-are-switching-to-nas-storage-why-tpstechin-is-where-theyre-buying-from</guid>
<description><![CDATA[ Every few months, the
same notification appears on millions of Indian smartphones: “Your storage
is almost full.” The default response has always been to pay for another
month of Google One or upgrade an iCloud plan. But a growing number of Indian
households and small businesses are choosing a different path entirely. They’re
buying NAS devices.

A Network Attached Storage
(NAS) device is a personal storage server that sits in your home or office and
connects to your Wi-Fi network. Once set up, every device on your network,
phones, laptops, tablets, and smart TVs, can access, back up, and share files
through it. No monthly subscription. No recurring fees. No data leaving your
premises.

The global NAS market
was valued at approximately $47 billion in 2025, with a projected compound
annual growth rate of over 15 per cent through the next decade. The
Asia-Pacific region, led by India and China, accounts for the largest and
fastest-growing share. Within India, the consumer NAS segment is being driven
by over 900 million internet users and an explosion of digital content creation
at every level.

The Subscription Trap

Google offers 15 GB of
free storage per account, a limit most users exhaust within a year. After that,
a Google One 2 TB plan costs ₹6,500 annually. Apple’s iCloud 2 TB plan runs at
₹749 per month. For a family with two or three members on paid plans, the
combined annual cost can touch ₹15,000 to ₹25,000. Over five years, that’s
₹75,000 to ₹1,25,000 spent on storage they will never own. If a subscription
lapses or the provider changes terms, as Google did when it ended unlimited
Photos storage in 2021, users have no recourse.

A NAS device flips this
equation. A 2-bay NAS enclosure from Synology or QNAP costs between ₹18,000 and
₹35,000 as a one-time purchase. Pair it with two 4 TB NAS-rated hard drives
(₹8,000 to ₹12,000 each), and a household has 4 to 8 terabytes of storage for
₹35,000 to ₹55,000 total. That investment pays for itself within two to three
years, and the storage remains yours indefinitely.

Privacy and Security:
Why Keeping Files Local Matters More Than Ever

India’s cybersecurity
landscape has grown increasingly alarming. According to CERT-In, cyber
incidents surged from 1.03 million in 2022 to over 2.27 million by 2024. Cloud
misconfigurations remain among the most common causes of data exposure. In
2025, multiple Indian financial institutions suffered breaches due to
misconfigured cloud storage, with the average breach cost reaching ₹220 million
according to IBM’s annual report.

A NAS device changes
this fundamentally. Files sit on hard drives physically inside your home. They
do not traverse the public internet unless you explicitly enable remote access,
and modern NAS operating systems from Synology (DiskStation Manager) and QNAP
(QTS) include built-in encryption, two-factor authentication, and automatic
security updates. There is no cloud provider reading metadata, training AI
models on your content, or serving targeted advertisements based on your stored
files.

India’s Digital
Personal Data Protection Act (DPDP), enforced through Rules notified in late
2025, has further heightened awareness around data sovereignty. A NAS provides
a straightforward answer to where personal data should live: at home, under the
owner’s control.

How Indian Households
Are Actually Using NAS Devices

School and college
projects: Families accumulate years of academic work
across multiple children’s devices. A NAS provides a shared drive where every
child can save and access projects from any device. Synology Drive and QNAP
File Station sync folders automatically, so a presentation started on a laptop
can be reviewed on a tablet without USB drives or email attachments.

Content creators and
freelancers: A single 4K video consumes 30 to 50 GB of raw
footage. Cloud storage at this scale is prohibitively expensive and slow on
typical Indian broadband. A NAS offers local gigabit-speed access (over 100
MB/s on wired connections), letting editors work directly off the device.
QNAP’s multimedia NAS models include hardware transcoding for streaming 4K to
multiple devices simultaneously.

Smartphone backups: With
over 750 million smartphone users in India, this is the most universal use
case. Both Synology Photos and QNAP QuMagie automatically back up every photo
and video the moment a phone connects to home Wi-Fi, identical to Google Photos
or iCloud backup, except files stay on your own hardware with no compression,
no fees, and no third-party scanning.

Home offices and small
businesses: Chartered accountants, architects, and design
studios use NAS units with RAID configurations for data redundancy, meaning
even if one hard drive fails, no data is lost. For firms handling sensitive
client information, this is far more controlled than a shared cloud plan.

Surveillance and media
streaming: Synology’s Surveillance Station supports IP
cameras directly, while apps like Plex turn a NAS into a personal streaming
server for movies and music across all household devices.

Where to Buy a NAS in
India: The TPSTech.in Advantage

NAS devices are
speciality hardware that most large e-commerce platforms carry in limited
stock, often from third-party sellers with inconsistent pricing and
questionable authenticity. This is the gap that TPSTech.in (TPS Technologies)
has filled.

Based in Bengaluru and
delivering to 19000+ pin codes in India, TPSTech is India’s leading specialist
technology retailers with over 5000 SKUs, a decade+ experience in eCommerce,
and their claim of having experience of 15 lakh orders. The company is an
authorised seller of both Synology and QNAP NAS systems, meaning every unit
comes with a valid manufacturer warranty, genuine firmware, and access to
official support.

TPSTech provides
pre-sales consultation via phone, email, and WhatsApp, helping first-time
buyers choose the right NAS model and compatible hard drives for their specific
use case. The company offers express delivery (paid options) across India
besides standard free shipping. The NAS category on TPSTech.in
(tpstech.in/collections/nas-device) covers the full range, from entry-level
1-bay units to enterprise rackmount solutions, alongside NAS-rated drives from
Seagate IronWolf and Western Digital Red series.

Setting Up a NAS at
Home: Easier Than You Think

Setting up a Synology
DiskStation involves three steps: insert the hard drives (tool-free on most
modern models), connect to your router with an Ethernet cable, and run the
guided setup wizard from any browser. The entire process takes under 20
minutes. Synology’s DSM and QNAP’s QTS both present intuitive, desktop-like
interfaces where creating shared folders, setting up phone backups, and
installing applications are all point-and-click operations. Both platforms
support secure remote access without requiring technical knowledge of port
forwarding or DNS configuration.

Luckily for buyers
unsure about the process, TPSTech.in also offers remote guidance that goes
beyond model selection. Their team walks first-time buyers through what to
expect after unboxing, which drives are compatible, and how to configure essentials
like phone backups and shared folders. This hands-on support is a key reason
why many Indian households choose to buy their first NAS through TPSTech rather
than navigating a generic marketplace alone.

The Bigger Picture:
Data Independence in a Subscription-Driven World

In a world where nearly
every digital service operates on a subscription model, NAS represents one of
the few remaining areas where users can own infrastructure outright. There is
no monthly toll, no algorithmic curation of your files, and no terms of service
that can change overnight.

As retailers like
TPSTech.in continue to make NAS hardware accessible, affordable, and
well-supported across India, the NAS device is steadily moving from niche
product to household essential. The question for most families is no longer
whether they need one, but when they’ll finally set one up.

<description><![CDATA[  

●       
Agentic AI platform targets India&#039;s 70% loan
application dropout rate

●       
Atlas Origin helps lenders easily underwrite
complex secured loans in 1 day

●       
15+ lenders already onboard the platform
through co-build, POCs and deployment programs 

●       
Company expects 30% revenue contribution in
FY27 from AI platforms 

National, May 14, 2026 : Leading
credit infrastructure FinTech FinBox today announced the launch of Atlas, an
AI-native lending infrastructure suite that helps lenders reduce loan
processing timelines from three weeks to 24 hours. The platform replaces manual
lending workflows with AI agents that manage borrower onboarding, document
validation, and operational decision-making across the credit journey.

The launch comes as India’s digital lending
ecosystem scales rapidly, placing increasing pressure on lenders to reduce
turnaround times, operational costs, and borrower drop-offs. Despite the growth
of digital lending, most delays still come from operational inefficiencies such
as incomplete documentation, manual verification, internal handoffs, and
repeated rework loops rather than underwriting decisions themselves. 

In early deployments, Atlas Flow has delivered
application completion rates of 85%, with most applications completed in under
ten minutes. Atlas Origin has reduced credit turnaround time from an industry
norm of around 21 days to as little as one day, lowered file send-backs by 60%,
and increased first-time-right rates to over 95%. These metrics are crucial
indicators of efficiency in the lending industry and lenders work hard to
optimize these to improve business profitability and processing capacity.

“AI cannot be retrofitted onto a broken
origination process. It has to be built into it,” said Rajat Deshpande,
Co-founder and CEO of FinBox. “The question for lenders is no longer how
to add AI on top of legacy workflows, but how to make origination AI-led from
the first borrower interaction, with policy, audit, and institutional control
intact at every step. Atlas is built for that.”

Atlas Flow conducts the full application
journey across WhatsApp chat, voice, video, and RM-assisted channels, replacing
static forms with conversational interfaces that adapt to the borrower’s
language, pace, and available documents. The platform also allows journeys to
resume seamlessly across channels if borrowers drop off midway through an
application.

Atlas Origin operates at the point of document
capture, autonomously classifying, extracting, cross-validating, and assembling
loan files from scanned, handwritten, and vernacular documents. The platform
flags discrepancies while the applicant is still present, allowing issues to be
resolved immediately instead of triggering days of back-and-forth and
resubmissions.

“Lenders don’t need another dashboard or
another point solution. What they need is for the operational core of credit to
work differently: fewer sendbacks, faster decisions, and fraud caught at
origination rather than after disbursal,” said Srijan Nagar, Co-founder
of FinBox.

The platform is being released in modules,
beginning with Atlas Flow for borrower onboarding and Atlas Origin for document
management. Five financial institutions are currently implementing Atlas, with
ten additional lenders participating in early proof-of-concept and co-build
programs. Both products operate within the lenders’ secure environment and
maintain a full audit trail across every extraction, classification, and
workflow decision to support compliance and explainability requirements.

Furthermore, Atlas modules covering credit
appraisal, fraud detection, and institutional configuration are currently in
development and will be released over the coming months. 

The launch has already drawn positive
reactions from leaders across the lending ecosystem. Sridhar Gopalakrishnan,
National Product Head, Muthoot highlighted, “Agentic AI in loan
origination is something the industry has been moving toward for a while, and
it&#039;s great to see a team that actually understands lending be the ones to build
it properly. Excited to watch this one unfold.” 

Nischal Puri, 
Sr. Vice President, Retail Assets - Auto Loans,  HDFC Bank, further added  - “Putting agentic AI at the heart of loan
origination - It&#039;s an exciting development for the industry, and we look
forward to seeing the impact it creates.”

About FinBox: 

FinBox is a leading credit infrastructure
FinTech working with over 130 banks, NBFCs, FinTech lenders and large consumer
platforms, including HDFC Bank, Kotak Mahindra Bank, Poonawalla Fincorp, Aditya
Birla Capital, Muthoot Fincorp and Tata Capital. Its solutions power seamless
omnichannel onboarding, instant underwriting and embedded credit distribution
across a wide range of lending ecosystems. The company raised $40 million in
Series B funding, led by WestBridge Capital with participation from A91
Partners and Aditya Birla Ventures.

<title>The Era of Informal Influence Is Over: India&amp;apos;s Creator Economy Is Entering Its Institutional Age</title>

<description><![CDATA[ Kofluence&#039;s
Decoding Influence 2026 maps how AI, regulation, creator commerce, and
performance accountability are reshaping the business of influence in India.

Bengaluru,
India, 14th May 2026 : Kofluence, India&#039;s leading Ad-Tech influencer
marketing platform, today released Decoding Influence: Annual Research Report
2026. Drawing on data from over 2 million creators, 1,000+ surveys, and
in-depth interviews with 50+ industry professionals, the flagship study
documents a structural shift in India&#039;s creator economy. The landscape has
transitioned entirely from an experimental phase into a formalised industry
defined by infrastructure, standardised processes, and regulatory governance.

India&#039;s
influencer marketing sector is valued at ₹3,000-3,500 Cr in 2025, sustaining a
22% CAGR from that base, and is projected to reach ₹4,500-5,000 Cr by 2027,
driven by deeper brand integration, creator professionalisation, and the
institutionalisation of influencer marketing initiatives. This expansion is
driven by the formalisation of influence -- transforming creator partnerships
into measurable, business-critical operations.

Leadership
Quotes

&quot;What
this report captures is a market that has crossed a structural threshold. With
15% of India&#039;s active creator base now registered as formal business entities,
and brands linking influencer marketing directly to revenue targets, influence
is no longer a soft channel. India is not following global best practices in
creator commerce -- it is writing them.&quot; -- Sreeram Reddy Vanga, CEO and
Co-Founder, Kofluence

&quot;AI
has done what most technology promises and rarely delivers: it has compressed
the production overhead that was preventing India&#039;s creator class from
operating at business scale. The governance question is now the defining one.
ASCI disclosures, SEBI scrutiny, DPDP compliance -- these are not obstacles.
They are the structural filters that will separate the durable from the
disposable.&quot; -- Ritesh Ujjwal, Co-Founder, Kofluence

Key
Insights from the Annual Research Report 2026

1.
The Formalisation of the Creator Class

India&#039;s
creator base spans 4.0M-4.4M+ active professionals, with Instagram serving as
the primary infrastructure for 3.3-3.7 million creators. The defining metric of
2026 is business incorporation: 15.2% of creators are now registered as a
business entity or GST individual. This establishes a new entry barrier for
institutional brand partnerships, making the GST-registered creator the new
baseline for enterprise engagement. Within this expanding base, 61.1% of all surveyed
creators operate in the Nano tier (1K-10K followers), providing highly targeted
community engagement. Specifically, 15.2% of India&#039;s active creators are now
registered as a business entity or GST individual, representing the new minimum
threshold for institutional brand partnerships.

2.
Regional Infrastructure Driving Growth

With
India having crossed 900 million internet users, Tier 2, 3, and 4 cities have
become the operational centre of gravity for the creator economy. Over 62% of
creators report an increase in regional and vernacular language briefs from
brands, signalling a systematic shift toward hyper-local strategies. The
performance case is direct: In Metro cities, average engagement rates range
from 3% to 4%, with average cost per campaign between ₹3.8L and ₹4.5L. In Tier
2 cities, average engagement rates improve to 3.5% to 4.5%, with average cost
per campaign dropping to ₹1.3L to ₹1.6L. In Tier 3 and 4 cities, average
engagement rates reach their highest at 4.5% to 5.5%, while average cost per
campaign falls to ₹35K to ₹90K. This data is sourced from Kofluence ARR 2026
Platform Data and BCG India Consumer Markets Report.

3.
Brand Accountability and Revenue Integration

Brand
accountability for influencer spend is accelerating. 13.3% of brands now
directly link influencer marketing spend to formal revenue targets, with a
further 46.4% applying performance accountability on a campaign-by-campaign
basis. 62% of brand professionals confirm that long-term creator partnerships
deliver superior ROI compared to one-off campaigns. Platform investment remains
heavily concentrated: 93.1% of brands prioritise Instagram as their primary
influencer channel, with e-commerce leading sectoral spend at 23%, followed by
FMCG at 19%. Specifically, 93.1% of brands prioritise Instagram as their
primary influencer marketing channel, making it the non-negotiable platform for
any scaled creator programme in India.

4.
AI as Operational Infrastructure

Technology
has standardised content production and campaign management at scale. Among
creators, 59% regularly or sometimes use AI tools for content ideation,
creative design, trend analysis, and scheduling. Only 17.3% of creators never
use AI tools -- a figure that continues to decline as technology becomes
embedded in daily workflows. Brands are deploying AI across creator discovery,
performance forecasting, and automated reporting, with 61% of brands actively
exploring tech platforms to streamline influencer campaigns. Specifically, 59%
of India&#039;s active creators regularly or sometimes use AI tools, with content
ideation leading adoption at 64.4%, followed by creative design at 31.9% and
trend analysis at 28.1%.

5.
Regulation Formalising the Industry

SEBI&#039;s
crackdown on finfluencers, ASCI&#039;s updated disclosure mandates, and the Digital
Personal Data Protection (DPDP) Act are collectively separating professionals
from participants and pushing the industry toward accountability. Compliance is
no longer a constraint on creativity -- it is the foundation for institutional
trust. Brands and creators who internalise this early will build durable
advantages as enforcement tightens.

<description><![CDATA[  

A few years back, ₹70,000 for 10
grams of 24-karat gold sounded like a stretch. Not impossible, just unlikely
anytime soon. Now it has crept up to levels that would have felt unrealistic
then, and the gold price today is sitting close to those highs across most Indian
cities. The change is not abstract anymore. It is showing up in real decisions.
Wedding budgets are shifting, and for many business owners, jewellery in
lockers is no longer just sitting there, it is starting to feel like something
that can actually be used. Which leaves a straightforward question hanging in
the air: what is pushing prices up like this?

 

The rise in the gold price is not
random. It comes from broader economic shifts building over the past three
years. Knowing what is behind this matters when deciding to buy, hold, or use
gold for liquidity.

 

Unpacking the Surge: What is
Driving the Market?

 

Several interconnected factors
have aligned to push prices to these historic highs. The movement is driven
largely by institutional behaviour rather than retail consumption. 

 

●     
Aggressive
Central Bank Purchases:
Central banks across the world are changing how they manage their reserves.
Seeking to reduce their reliance on the US dollar, institutions across emerging
economies have accumulated record tonnage of the yellow metal. This persistent
demand provides a solid floor for the market.

●     
Currency
Depreciation and Inflationary Pressures: The exchange rate between the Indian Rupee and the US
Dollar directly dictates local retail rates. Since India imports the vast
majority of its domestic supply, a weaker rupee directly increases the gold
price in India. Furthermore, inflation numbers make fiat currency less
attractive for wealth preservation. 

●     
Geopolitical
Safe-Haven Demand:
Supply chains are still all over the place, and trade ties keep shifting, so
there is constant uncertainty. When things get like this, big investors start
putting money into gold since it tends to hold value better. 

 

What This Means for Everyday
Borrowers and Investors

For everyday individuals and
business operators, these record highs present a unique financial opportunity.
The jewellery sitting idle at home has essentially doubled in collateral value
over a short time period. These dynamics change the approach to securing
personal or business finance.

When borrowing through traditional
personal loans becomes slower or stricter, involving rigorous credit checks,
extensive documentation, and lengthy approval times. In sharp contrast,
leveraging an appreciating physical asset avoids these steps. By taking out a
gold loan, borrowers can access a significantly larger pool of capital than
they could have just two years ago, utilizing the exact same collateral. 

 

However, capitalizing on this
valuation requires careful partner selection. Lenders calculate loan amounts
based on the gold price today, but the borrowing costs remain a critical
factor. The gold loan interest rate determines the feasibility of the
debt, heavily impacting the repayment burden over the tenure.

 

Navigating Liquidity: Choosing the
Right Lending Partner

 

Selecting exactly where to pledge
family assets requires properly assessing both the financial terms and the
long-term institutional reliability. Established corporate entities with
decades of market presence offer highly standardized evaluation protocols that
local, unorganized lenders simply cannot match. For instance, Established NBFCs
such as Muthoot Finance operate under strict regulations and follow
standardised processes for gold loan evaluation. They utilize advanced, entirely transparent
assaying methods to ensure borrowers receive loan amounts aligned with current
market rates.

Security is another non-negotiable
factor in this process. Pledging valuables inherently means transferring
physical custody of items that carry heavy sentimental weight. A trusted
Financial Institution like Muthoot Finance maintains secure storage systems
designed to protect pledged assets during the loan period. Relying on an
organized sector lender also guarantees clear contractual terms and a highly
structured repayment schedule with clearly defined terms.

Evaluating the Financial Mechanics

Understanding the distinct
structural differences between secured asset lending and traditional consumer
credit quickly clarifies why asset-backed borrowing is seeing such massive
domestic uptake in 2026.

Tips and Caveats for Prospective
Borrowers

Before utilizing physical assets
to generate fast liquidity, financial advisors strongly recommend keeping these
operational parameters in mind:

●     
Compare
the specific borrowing costs:
The advertised gold loan interest rate is not universally fixed across the industry.
Lenders offer various distinct slabs based entirely on the total loan amount
and the chosen repayment frequency. Always calculate the total out-of-pocket
interest outgo rather than just glancing at the advertised monthly percentage.

●     
Verify
the valuation process:
Ensure the selected lender uses standard, non-destructive testing methods to
accurately assess purity without damaging the ornaments. The final valuation
should strictly reflect the current market highs.

●     
Plan
the repayment structure:
Defaulting on any secured loan puts your physical assets at immediate risk of
auction. Opt for flexible repayment schemes where you can pay the interest
monthly and comfortably clear the principal at closure, or choose a steady
Equated Monthly Installment (EMI) model. Plan timing carefully if capital is
needed for time-sensitive business inventory, as the current market highs
provide optimal borrowing limits right now.

 

Conclusion

The current historical trajectory
of precious metal markets highlights a massive fundamental shift in global
finance, a shift that is directly impacting the net worth of ordinary
households across India. While rapidly rising acquisition costs may deter heavy
retail buying in the short term, they simultaneously empower existing asset
holders with unprecedented borrowing capacity. If you are a small enterprise
owner or an individual needing immediate emergency funds, this is a highly
advantageous time to evaluate your liquidity options. Review your exact capital
needs, consult the daily market rates, and partner with a reputable,
established lender to safely unlock the financial power of your idle assets.
Review lender eligibility criteria before making a decision.

This unique offering transforms the

high-net-worth individuals, the venue will bring together:


 Leading businessmen 
 Political figures 
 Influencers and social elites 


This carefully curated audience adds to the
event’s prestige, making it one of the most sought-after social gatherings of
the season.

Powered by Vision and Relationships

Driving this large-scale experience is
organiser Keval Jasoliya, whose 12+ years of experience and strong network
across Surat’s business and social circles have been instrumental in shaping OG
Navratri’s premium identity.

Backed by The Memories Event’s execution
expertise, his vision continues to turn Navratri into a refined lifestyle
experience.

Redefining Festivities in Modern India

With its seamless blend of luxury
infrastructure, curated experiences, and digital-first engagement, OG
Navratri—under the leadership of The Memories Event—is setting a new benchmark
for festive celebrations in India.

This is no longer just Garba. It is an

aspiration, and celebration meets sophistication.

<guid>https://en.newsbolt.in/volo-health-services-and-medix-global-partner-to-transform-corporate-healthcare-in-india</guid>
<description><![CDATA[ Mumbai, 13 May 2026 : Volo Health Services Pvt. Ltd.  and Medix Global, a leader in
personalised medical management and healthcare navigation with an established
presence in India, today announced a strategic partnership to introduce a
variety of comprehensive, outcome-driven healthcare solutions for corporate
clients in India.

The collaboration brings together Volo’s strong
corporate reach, healthcare knowledge and claims management expertise with
Medix’s globally recognised clinical capabilities, and its proven experience in
the Indian market, where it has been delivering medical management services

Together, they aim to redefine how corporate healthcare is accessed and
experienced.

annually, significantly above general inflation, placing increasing pressure on
employers and corporate insurance programs. At the same time, nearly 70% of
healthcare expenses in India are linked to hospitalization and specialised
treatments, highlighting the need for early intervention, care navigation, and expert-led
medical management.

Through this partnership, corporate
employees will also gain access to the Medix App, a digital platform that
enables medical record management, expert consultations, and personalised
health navigation. Volo and Medix will leverage advanced analytics and
AI-driven insights to support corporates with better program planning,
treatment validation for employees, and ongoing care coordination all while
optimising medical and financial outcomes.

<title>Nivasa Finance Raises $3 Million to Narrow India’s Secured Credit Gap</title>
<link>https://en.newsbolt.in/nivasa-finance-raises-3-million-to-narrow-indias-secured-credit-gap</link>

<description><![CDATA[ Investors:
Prime Venture Partners, Blume Ventures, Whiteboard Capital

Bengaluru,
13 May : Nivasa Finance, building access to
secured housing credit for underserved borrowers across non-metro India,
has raised INR 25 crore in seed funding from Prime Venture Partners,
Blume Ventures, Whiteboard Capital, and a group of angel investors.

India’s
affordable housing segment, particularly loans under ₹25 lakh, represents a ₹1.4
trillion annual market with over 1 million loans disbursed each year, yet a
significant portion of demand remains unmet due to gaps in credit access for
informal and semi-formal borrowers. Borrowers in this segment, often
self-employed, gig workers, or small business owners, typically lack formal
income documentation or clear property records, making them difficult to
underwrite through traditional lending systems. At the same time, lenders face challenges
in sourcing verified, loan-ready customers from these markets, limiting
distribution of affordable home loans and Loan Against Property (LAP).

Nivasa
Finance is building a full-stack distribution and
fulfilment layer to address this gap. It supports borrowers across the
entire loan journey, from initial assessment and documentation readiness to
lender matching and disbursal, through a hybrid model that combines
technology-led workflows with on-ground field execution. The company
currently works with more than ten lending partners including banks, Small
Finance Banks (SFBs), Housing Finance Companies (HFCs) and Non-Banking Finance
Companies (NBFCs), enabling borrowers to access suitable loan options while
helping lenders receive verified, disbursal-ready cases.

Since
its launch in 2025, Nivasa has facilitated hundreds of loans worth over ₹20
crore, piloting the model in Mysore and Mandya districts of Karnataka.
Nivasa’s model is particularly focused on borrowers building homes on rural and
semi-urban markets, an increasingly important segment as housing demand shifts
beyond metro cities. Rising aspirations, improving income formalisation, and
increased lender appetite for secured lending in these markets are expected to
drive sustained growth in this category.

Unlike
traditional DSAs or branch-led sourcing, Nivasa combines remote onboarding,
assessment and matchmaking, with doorstep service to improve conversion rates
and the experience of both borrowers and lenders. The company also emphasises
transparency and a zero-commission approach for customers, addressing
long-standing trust gaps in the DSA segment. Nivasa has built customer-facing
digital interfaces, WhatsApp-led and app-based journeys, to simplify onboarding
and improve accessibility for borrowers in non-metro markets.

Nivasa
Finance was founded by Samit Shetty and Hitesh Saraf, combining deep
experience across microfinance and digital lending. Samit previously founded
and scaled Chaitanya India Fin Credit, which was later acquired by Navi
Technologies, and went on to lead Navi Finserve as its first CEO. His
experience working with underserved borrowers highlighted a persistent gap in
access to housing finance and loans against property. Hitesh has spent his
career building digital lending and underwriting systems across fintechs and
financial institutions. The founding team is now focused on building a scalable
distribution and fulfillment layer for secured credit in India.

Nivasa
is also exploring the path to securing an NBFC license to further strengthen
its role within the secured lending ecosystem. The
company plans to use the fresh capital to scale significantly over the next 12
months as it expands geographically and strengthens its distribution network
and partnerships with banks, NBFCs and housing finance companies. In parallel,
the company will continue to expand its field execution network.

Supporting
Quotes

Samit
Shetty, Founder &amp; CEO, Nivasa Finance

“India
doesn’t have a credit problem, it has a mortgage debt problem. Our mortgage
debt to GDP ratio is at 20% of the levels in developed economies and below 40%
of most developing countries, while on unsecured we are mostly on par. There is
a large segment of borrowers across India who are building homes and own
property but remain excluded from formal secured credit systems, not because of
lack of intent or repayment ability, but because the access and fulfillment
mechanisms are non-transparent and very complex. At Nivasa, we are building a
distribution and fulfilment layer that gives customer clarity on viable loan
options and keeps fulfilment simple for the customer, while enabling lenders to
participate in this segment with greater confidence and efficiency.”

Sanjay
Swamy, Managing Partner, Prime Venture Partners

“100% of households in more than 600,000
villages in India aspire to transform from semi-permanent to permanent homes
and we see a lot of this happening in the next decade. Samit, Hitesh and team
are committed to driving this transformation with fair and affordable financing
and we&#039;re thrilled to partner with them in this journey.”

Karthik
Reddy, Managing Partner, Blume Ventures

“Nivasa
is building critical infrastructure for expanding access to secured finance in
underpenetrated markets. Their focus on execution, customer readiness, and
lender alignment positions them well to scale in this segment.”

Anshu
Prasher, Partner, Whiteboard Capital 

“India’s
credit ecosystem is evolving rapidly, but large segments of borrowers still
remain underserved because access and execution continue to be fragmented. What
stood out to us about Nivasa is its ability to combine technology with deep
on-ground understanding to simplify the secured lending journey for customers.
We’re excited to partner with them as they build a category-defining platform
in this space.”

<title>Plant A Billion Trees (PABT) Leading a Collective Movement to Restore India’s Green Cover</title>

<description><![CDATA[ Chennai,
13th May 2026 :  As
environmental concerns continue to grow and cities expand rapidly, restoring
green cover has become a critical priority for a sustainable future. Taking a
proactive step in this direction, Plant A Billion Trees (PABT) is driving
large-scale tree plantation initiatives aimed at creating long-term
environmental impact across India.

Plant
A Billion Trees (PABT) is a mission-driven NGO dedicated to planting and
protecting trees while building sustainable ecosystems. The organisation works
with schools, corporates and communities to conduct structured plantation
drives that focus not only on planting saplings but also on ensuring their
long-term growth and survival.

Recognised
among the top NGOs for tree plantation fundraising near Chennai, PABT has been
actively mobilising communities, institutions and businesses to support
environmental restoration. With increasing awareness around climate change, the
need for responsible environmental action has become a priority. PABT’s
initiatives focus on creating green spaces in urban and semi-urban areas,
encouraging biodiversity, and promoting environmental awareness among younger
generations.

Through
its outreach programs with educational institutions, the organisation also aims
to inspire students to become active participants in protecting the
environment. This has helped position PABT among the top tree plantation NGOs
in Chennai and nearby regions, working closely with schools, resident
communities and volunteers to build greener neighbourhoods.

Corporate
partnerships form an important part of this initiative. As a CSR tree planting NGO in Chennai,
PABT collaborates with organisations that wish to support sustainability
through Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) programs. These collaborations
include sponsored plantation drives, employee engagement initiatives and
long-term environmental sustainability projects. Such programs allow companies
to actively contribute to environmental conservation while creating measurable
social impact.

The
organisation also encourages donations for tree plantation and supports
fundraising for tree plantation NGOsthrough community campaigns, school
initiatives and corporate partnerships. These efforts help expand plantation
activities while ensuring that every tree planted is monitored and nurtured for
long-term survival.

Several
brands have already come forward to support the mission, including Birth
Marque, 10 Sports Club, Golden Keys, Tracole, Rajamata, Krishko, Horicul, APM
Group, Dawntown, Ceramic Pro, Namma Vetri IAS Academy and Klin Space, helping
expand plantation efforts across different communities.

Looking
ahead, PABT aims to scale its plantation drives across multiple cities, schools
and public spaces with the vision of creating self-sustaining green zones and
urban forests. The organisation remains committed to long-term care and
monitoring of planted trees to ensure that every plantation effort contributes
to a healthier ecosystem.

Speaking
about the initiative Mr  Shailendra  Shivakumar , Founder &amp; Chairperson Plant A Billion Trees
(PABT) said “Our goal is not just to plant trees but to nurture them into
thriving forests that support communities and ecosystems. We believe
sustainability requires collective action, and we invite corporates and
institutions to partner with us through CSR initiatives to create meaningful
environmental impact.”

As
India faces the growing consequences of climate change, initiatives like Plant
A Billion Trees (PABT) highlight the power of collective action in shaping a
greener future. Every plantation effort today contributes to cleaner air,
healthier ecosystems and stronger communities tomorrow. By bringing together
responsible businesses, institutions and citizens, PABT is building a movement
that goes beyond environmental awareness to real, measurable change—reminding
us that the future of the planet depends on the choices and actions we take
today.

<description><![CDATA[ New Delhi, May 11 : Avaa
Wellness Pvt. Ltd. officially announced the launch of Sadhya Studio, its
premium wellness and mindful movement brand, during the inauguration of its
11th Anytime
Fitness India club at Anytime Fitness Delta 1.

The launch event brought together members

movement brand focused on alignment, mobility, recovery, movement quality, and
sustainable lifestyle practices.

The brand aims to bridge the gap between
fitness and holistic well-being by combining Yoga, Pilates, breathwork,
recovery practices, and nutrition-led experiences under one integrated
platform.

Reflecting on the launch, CEO Neha
Kapur said, “Sadhya was created with the vision of building a
wellness space that goes beyond conventional fitness. Our focus is on helping

Further elaborating on the concept, Narender
Kumar, Co-founder ARC said, “Sadhya has been envisioned as much
more than a Yoga or Pilates studio. The idea is to create a premium wellness
ecosystem where movement, recovery, nutrition, and mindful living come together
seamlessly. We believe the future of wellness lies in experience-driven,
community-focused spaces that genuinely prioritize the member journey. Through
Sadhya, we aim to build a brand that sets new benchmarks in the wellness and

<title>Green Mark Infra Limited Strengthens Focus on Technical Infrastructure Design &amp;amp; Expressway Development</title>
<link>https://en.newsbolt.in/green-mark-infra-limited-strengthens-focus-on-technical-infrastructure-design-expressway-development</link>
<guid>https://en.newsbolt.in/green-mark-infra-limited-strengthens-focus-on-technical-infrastructure-design-expressway-development</guid>
<description><![CDATA[ India’s infrastructure
sector is rapidly evolving with the expansion of expressways, smart
transportation systems, and high-speed rail corridors. As the country moves
toward faster connectivity and modern transportation infrastructure, companies
involved in technical engineering, roadway systems, electrical infrastructure,
and structural development are playing a critical role in shaping future
mobility projects.

Among the emerging
infrastructure-focused companies, Green Mark Infra Limited is strengthening its
position through technical infrastructure planning and development support
related to expressway projects, highway systems, and future transportation
concepts.

The company has recently
shifted its major focus toward technical infrastructure execution, roadway
support systems, highway durability planning, electrical installations, and
transportation infrastructure development associated with projects such as the
Delhi–Mumbai Expressway and the Agra–Lucknow Expressway corridors.

According to the company,
modern infrastructure development requires more than conventional road
construction. Large-scale transportation projects demand advanced engineering
coordination, structural planning, safety systems, environmental understanding,
electrical infrastructure management, and durable execution methods capable of
supporting long-term operational performance.

Green Mark Infra Limited
highlighted its involvement in multiple technical infrastructure activities
related to expressway development support. These activities include material
handling operations, roadside grilling systems, electrical and lighting
installations, lower construction support work, plantation development,
manpower deployment, and infrastructure coordination across several kilometers
of highway zones.

 

The company emphasized
that roadway durability remains one of the most critical aspects of expressway
infrastructure development. Proper groundwork preparation, soil stabilization,
drainage engineering, structural layering, and environmental protection systems
are essential to maintaining long-term highway performance under heavy traffic
movement and changing weather conditions.

According to project
insights shared by the company, several traditional highway developments often
face long-term maintenance issues due to weak lower-layer preparation, poor
drainage systems, and lack of advanced waterproofing support. Green Mark Infra
Limited stated that technical planning and infrastructure quality management
play a major role in extending the life cycle and operational reliability of
expressway corridors.

The company also
explained the importance of roadside infrastructure systems such as highway
grilling installations, lighting infrastructure, electrical cable management,
and traffic safety planning. These systems are essential for maintaining
highway safety, improving nighttime visibility, and supporting organized
vehicle movement on high-speed transportation corridors.

Environmental
infrastructure has also become a key focus area in modern highway development.
Green Mark Infra Limited highlighted its work related to plantation support and
green corridor infrastructure aimed at improving environmental sustainability
around major roadway projects. The company stated that modern expressway
projects should balance transportation efficiency with ecological
responsibility and landscape restoration.

Apart from expressway
development, Green Mark Infra Limited has also presented technical concepts
associated with high-speed rail and bullet train infrastructure systems.
According to the company, future transportation infrastructure in India will
depend heavily on elevated rail engineering, advanced signaling technologies,
structural safety systems, and internationally compliant high-speed rail
corridors.

The company outlined
several technical specifications for bullet train infrastructure, including
elevated aerodynamic rail systems, ETCS (European Train Control System)
signaling technology, earthquake-resistant structures, advanced fire safety
systems, and transportation corridors designed to support train speeds of up to
350 km/h.

Green Mark Infra Limited
stated that high-speed rail systems require precision engineering, advanced
structural alignment, intelligent electrical systems, and long-term
infrastructure durability planning to ensure passenger safety and operational
efficiency.

Industry observers
believe that India’s future infrastructure growth will increasingly depend on
companies capable of supporting technically advanced projects involving
transportation engineering, expressway systems, railway infrastructure, and
smart mobility development.

With increasing
investment in national highway corridors, logistics infrastructure, and future
transportation networks, the demand for technically skilled infrastructure companies
continues to rise across the country.

Green Mark Infra Limited
stated that its long-term objective is to contribute toward technically strong,
durable, and future-ready infrastructure systems capable of supporting India’s
growing transportation and connectivity demands through modern engineering
practices and efficient project execution. ]]></description>

<title>Why NCR’s Affluent Buyers Are Moving Towards Low Density Communities</title>
<link>https://en.newsbolt.in/why-ncrs-affluent-buyers-are-moving-towards-low-density-communities</link>
<guid>https://en.newsbolt.in/why-ncrs-affluent-buyers-are-moving-towards-low-density-communities</guid>
<description><![CDATA[  

The luxury housing
landscape in NCR is undergoing a major transformation as affluent homebuyers
increasingly shift towards low density communities that prioritise privacy,
exclusivity, wellness, and curated lifestyle experiences over conventional high
rise density. 

Ravi
Saund, Founding Director, Emperium Group said


“The definition of
luxury has evolved significantly in recent years, with modern buyers seeking
sustainability, emotionally enriching environments, open spaces, and
community-focused living rather than simply large residential towers and
crowded developments.” 

This shift is visible
across the Dwarka Expressway corridor, which has rapidly emerged as one of
NCR’s most promising luxury real estate destinations. According to recent
market reports, Gurugram recorded over ₹24,120 crore worth of residential sales
in the ₹10 crore plus category, overtaking Mumbai as India’s fastest growing
ultra luxury residential market. The trend reflects growing demand among
affluent buyers for larger homes, premium ecosystems, and future ready
residential communities. 

Industry studies
further indicate that India’s luxury housing segment is expected to maintain
strong momentum throughout 2026, driven by rising HNI wealth, infrastructure
growth, and increasing demand for premium residential developments. Analysts
have noted that buyers are increasingly prioritising privacy, wellness-led
planning, sustainability, and hospitality-inspired experiences while evaluating
luxury homes. 

The growing preference
for low-density residential formats is also being influenced by changing
post-pandemic lifestyles. Homebuyers today are increasingly conscious about
mental wellness, healthier surroundings, air quality, and larger open spaces.
As a result, projects with fewer residences, expansive layouts, and lower
resident-to-amenity ratios are witnessing stronger demand among affluent
families and investors. 

Responding to this
evolving market trend is Emperium Titan, a lifestyle crafted for Titans. The
ultra premium residential development is located in Sector 88A on Dwarka
Expressway. Designed as a low density luxury community
with only 74, 3BHK fully air conditioned residences, the project has been
conceptualised to deliver a more private and refined lifestyle experience. The
development combines spacious planning, wellness-oriented amenities,
hospitality inspired infrastructure, and a club 360 to offer a modern ultra
premium lifestyle aligned with evolving buyer aspirations.

The project has further
strengthened its premium positioning through its prestigious IGBC Platinum
Certification, reflecting its commitment towards sustainable and
environmentally responsible development. Sustainability and wellness have
emerged as important differentiators within NCR’s luxury &amp; ultra premium
housing segment as buyers increasingly seek future-ready and environmentally
conscious homes. 

The credibility of the
development is further reinforced by the strong market presence and execution
track record of Emperium Group. The company has steadily emerged as one of
Haryana’s most trusted real estate developers with a growing portfolio of
residential communities focused on quality construction and 100% before time
delivery. 

Over the years,
Emperium Group has received multiple recognitions that reflect its growing
credibility and industry presence. The company has been honoured with the ET
Real Estate Award for ‘Iconic Project of the Year’, the Jewels of Haryana
Award, the Jagran Achievers Award for Excellence in Real Estate, and more. 

Speaking about changing
luxury housing preferences, Ravi Saund added “Emperium Group stated
that today’s potential buyer is increasingly prioritising privacy, wellness,
exclusivity, and meaningful everyday experiences. The spokesperson added that
low density living is steadily becoming one of the defining aspirations among
affluent homebuyers seeking a balanced and 

elevated
urban lifestyle and that the company remains fully committed to delivering a
360 degree living experience that offers a complete legacy worthy lifestyle.”


Recent reports by
Knight Frank India and JLL India highlight Dwarka Expressway as one of NCR’s
most rapidly evolving luxury residential corridors, witnessing strong demand
from buyers seeking elevated, low-density, and lifestyle-driven communities. ]]></description>

“Simply create, market and scale your
brand, in minutes.”

21 year old founder Yash Kesharwani is
building Lyner, an Al
powered platform designed to simplify the complexity of building a business and
presence online, by turning hours of work into minutes.

The startup is already being discussed at a
reported valuation of ₹53 crore and is currently in talks to raise ₹8 crore in
funding.

Built with the vision of “One App. Zero
Complexity. Higher Efficiency,” Lyner aims to help MSMEs, creators,
influencers, brands, and startups manage everything from content creation and
PR campaigns to delivery systems and digital operations through a single
AI-powered ecosystem.

The company claims it wants to
revolutionize:


 Traditional marketing
 PR and news-channel marketing
 Influencer marketing
 Business operations
 Shipping and delivery systems


while turning complex workflows into a fast,
one-tap experience.

time managing disconnected tools, agencies, and systems. Lyner’s mission is to
simplify that process and help businesses save time, money, and effort while
maintaining high quality execution.

The founder also claims the company could
create millions of jobs over the next decade through its future ecosystem of
“Lyner Experts.”

While still in its early stages, Lyner
represents a new wave of AI startups being built by young founders aiming to
reshape how modern businesses operate.

<title>Appeal to PM Modi to Establish National Organisation for Empowerment of Women in Agriculture</title>
<link>https://en.newsbolt.in/appeal-to-pm-modi-to-establish-national-organisation-for-empowerment-of-women-in-agriculture</link>
<guid>https://en.newsbolt.in/appeal-to-pm-modi-to-establish-national-organisation-for-empowerment-of-women-in-agriculture</guid>
<description><![CDATA[ Pune :
On the occasion of World Mother’s Day, an appeal was made to Prime Minister
Narendra Modi to establish a national organisation dedicated to the empowerment
of women in agriculture. The appeal was submitted via email by the “Bharat
Krishi Nari Samridhi Sangh” and the “Krishi Nari Abhiyan Samiti” for the
welfare and upliftment of women farmers, women agricultural labourers, women fruit
and vegetable vendors, and women engaged in food processing and agro-based
industries. The memorandum urged the government to provide special recognition,
dignity and independent national-level schemes for women under the vision of
Viksit Bharat 2047 through the message “Krishi Nari — Samridhi Nari.”

 

The
concept of the initiative was proposed by Raghunath Yemul. Through “My Kisan
Mart,” farmers and consumers have been directly connected for the last 12
years. During interactions with thousands of farmers, the challenges faced by
women farmers, women agricultural labourers and women vendors selling fruits
and vegetables came to the forefront. He stressed the need for a nationwide
organised movement to strengthen rural women who still struggle for market
access, fair pricing, training and financial support.

 

The
guiding force behind the “Bharat Krishi Nari Samridhi Sangh” and “Krishi Nari
Abhiyan Samiti” is Vidyabhushan Dr. Prashant Pagare. The committee also
includes Rashmi Maurya, former APMC administrator B. J. Deshmukh, Kamini
Balasaheb Deshmukh, Varsha Paigwar and Sushila Singh.

 

According
to the memorandum, India has more than 3.6 crore women cultivators and over 6
crore women agricultural labourers. More than 10 crore women are directly
connected with agriculture through dairy, animal husbandry, horticulture and
food processing sectors. The committee stated that over 75 percent of working
rural women are engaged in agriculture and women contribute nearly 60 to 80
percent of the country’s food production. However, only 13.9 percent of women
own agricultural land.

 

The
committee has proposed organising one crore women farmers over the next five
years, establishing 10 lakh women-led agro-based micro enterprises, connecting
self-help groups with farm-to-market supply chains, and creating market access
through digital platforms. The proposal also includes skill development in
organic farming and food processing, establishment of “Krishi Nari Mandals”
across states, district-level women agricultural leadership centres, and a
dedicated digital app providing government schemes, market prices, weather
updates and agricultural guidance.

 

The
memorandum further proposed healthcare, maternity, nutrition and insurance
support for women farmers, microfinance assistance, Mudra loans, awareness
regarding land rights and Agri-Startup opportunities for young women in the
agricultural sector.

 

According
to the committee, the initiative could significantly increase the income of
rural women, create employment opportunities, strengthen the Agri-MSME sector
and accelerate the vision of “Atmanirbhar Bharat” and “Viksit Bharat 2047.” The
memorandum stated that true national prosperity would only be possible when
women farmers and women associated with agriculture receive dignity, identity
and economic self-reliance.

<title>India Emerges as a Key Hub for AI&#45;Led Mortgage Operations as Moder Scales Global Delivery</title>
<link>https://en.newsbolt.in/india-emerges-as-a-key-hub-for-ai-led-mortgage-operations-as-moder-scales-global-delivery</link>
<guid>https://en.newsbolt.in/india-emerges-as-a-key-hub-for-ai-led-mortgage-operations-as-moder-scales-global-delivery</guid>
<description><![CDATA[ Bengaluru,
May, 2026 : Moder, a tech-enabled outsourcing firm
serving the mortgage, banking, and insurance sectors, is expanding its AI-led
capabilities in mortgage operations, with India emerging as its largest
delivery hub, as financial institutions increasingly focus on reducing costs
and improving turnaround times. Founded in 2021, the company has grown to over
7,400 employees globally, including more than 5,000 in India, and supports over
65 clients across key financial services markets.

As
lenders navigate rising cost pressures, evolving regulatory requirements, and
the need for faster loan processing, mortgage operations are undergoing a shift
from manual, document-heavy workflows to more standardised, technology-led
systems. Moder is aligning its operating model to this transition by combining
domain expertise, global talent, and automation to streamline processes across
the mortgage lifecycle, including loan origination, underwriting, servicing,
and customer operations.

To
support this shift, the company has been investing in AI-led capabilities
through modeIQ, a platform developed in partnership with Palantir
Technologies. The platform integrates data, decisioning, and workflow
orchestration to translate policies into structured, auditable processes,
enabling lenders to reduce manual intervention, improve consistency, and
enhance predictability in outcomes across high-volume environments. This
approach is helping financial institutions move toward more scalable and
efficient operating models while maintaining compliance and control.

“Mortgage
operations are at an inflection point, where traditional, labour-intensive
models are no longer sustainable in a high-volume, high-compliance environment,”
said Erik Anderson, President and Chief Executive Officer, Moder. “What
we are seeing is a shift toward integrated systems that bring together data,
automation, and human expertise to deliver faster and more consistent outcomes.
The role of AI in this transformation is not just to automate tasks, but to
enable standardisation and control in processes that have historically been fragmented.
India’s scale and capability make it central to how this transformation is
being executed globally.”

Over
the past five years, Moder has expanded its global footprint across India, the
Philippines, Guatemala, Chile, and the United States, with India continuing to
serve as its largest and fastest-growing hub. The company has also strengthened
its technology ecosystem through partnerships with firms such as Gateless,
ServisBOT, and Xpanse, enhancing capabilities across underwriting intelligence,
customer engagement, and operational scalability. In parallel, Moder has
developed internal automation capabilities through its Automation Foundry,
including co-pilots, analytics dashboards, process mining tools, and workflow
orchestration systems aimed at improving efficiency and reducing rework across
the mortgage value chain.

Marking
its five-year milestone, Moder has also announced a sustainability initiative
involving the plantation of nearly 5,000 saplings across Karnataka, including
Chikmagalur, Koppal, and Chikkaballapur districts, expected to be completed by
July. The initiative reflects the company’s focus on responsible growth
alongside its business expansion.

As
Moder enters its next phase of growth, the company will continue to invest in
AI-led capabilities, global delivery infrastructure, and talent, as financial
institutions increasingly prioritise efficiency, resilience, and
technology-driven transformation. ]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[  

Chandigarh,
May 11, 2026 : As India and the global
workforce shift decisively towards a skill-first economy, Chandigarh University
Online is reinforcing its core brand promise of enabling learners to “Move Up”
with the launch of five industry-backed, future-ready online degree programs.
Moving beyond traditional, theory-led education, these programs are designed to
build real, job-ready capabilities that help learners grow, stay competitive,
and advance in an AI-driven world.

The five programs are
designed to bridge the gap between academic learning and real-world
application, with a sharp focus on employability, hands-on exposure, and
industry relevance. As AI, digital transformation, and product-led innovation
redefine workforce needs, they equip learners with the skills required not just
to adapt—but to confidently move up in their careers.

Among the key offerings
is an Online Master of Science in Data Science (MSDS),  the only online master of science program
that covers areas such as Generative AI, Applied AI, and Agentic AI, aiming to
provide learners with comprehensive exposure to the end-to-end AI ecosystem,
from foundational concepts to deployment. The university is also the first to
introduce an Online MCA in Agentic AI, focusing on advanced areas
including natural language processing, multi-agent systems, retrieval-augmented
generation (RAG), and large language model engineering.

In the management
domain, Chandigarh University Online has launched an Online MBA in Product
Management, designed to equip learners with future-ready product thinking,
strategy, and execution skills. Alongside this, the university is offering a
Premium Online MBA with triple industry certification, bringing together
credentials from PwC India, Project Management Institute, and Harvard
Business Publishing Education within a single program. Combined with CU
Online’s curriculum and faculty, the program is designed to equip learners with
strong business and leadership capabilities backed by globally recognised
certifications.

The portfolio also
includes an Online MCA program in collaboration with Microsoft, designed to
deliver dual value for learners. Through a single, integrated curriculum,
students not only earn an MCA degree from Chandigarh University Online but also
prepare for in-demand Microsoft certifications such as Azure Fundamentals
(AZ-900) and Azure Developer Associate (AZ-204). This combined approach ensures
learners graduate with both academic credentials and industry-recognised
certifications, strengthening their readiness for real-world technology roles.

Talking about the new courses, Dr. Raviraja N. Seetharam, Hon’ble
Vice-Chancellor, Chandigarh University,
said, “The expansion in our courses reflects a shift in higher education
towards outcome-driven learning. There is a growing demand for programs that
go beyond theoretical knowledge and directly contribute to career growth. These
programs have been developed with a strong focus on industry integration,
ensuring that learners are prepared for evolving job roles in an AI-driven
economy.”

With a focus on
accessibility and industry relevance, the university aims to cater to
individuals seeking better job opportunities, higher income potential, and
faster career progression.

Chandigarh University
Online stated that the programs are structured to combine academic rigor with
practical application, reflecting broader industry trends where skills,
certifications, and hands-on experience are becoming increasingly critical for
career advancement.

About
Chandigarh University Online:

<description><![CDATA[  Following the success of its debut IP, the studio continues to build India-born
stories for digital-first audiences

Mumbai,
May 11, 2026 : Kayhan Enterprises,
an integrated IP-led ecosystem with strategic focus on IP ownership and
creative exports has launched its second original IP, FAB 5, on Zee5 Kids,
further strengthening its vision of building culturally rooted stories from
India for audiences across digital platforms. The launch marks another key
milestone in the studio’s journey as an IP-led storytelling company focused on
creating scalable, character-driven content with long-term franchise potential.

The
launch follows the success of Kayhan’s debut original IP, “Chote Tara Ka Bada
Gadar,” which premiered on Zee Kids. Centered around the adventures of a
spirited young protagonist navigating playful chaos and imaginative challenges,
the show introduced audiences to Kayhan’s signature blend of humour, emotion,
and culturally rooted storytelling. Its successful reception established the
studio’s ability to translate original Indian narratives into engaging
mainstream kids’ entertainment.

Founded
by Dalbir Singh and Arushi Govil, Kayhan is being built through a distinctive
creative partnership that brings together vision and execution in equal
measure. As one of India’s most defining IP-creator couples, the two founders
combine storytelling ambition, worldbuilding expertise, and production
discipline to create and scale original IP from India. Their complementary
strengths are shaping Kayhan into an integrated creative ecosystem designed to
accelerate India’s shift from execution-led services to ownership-driven
storytelling.

Speaking
about the launch, Dalbir Singh, Co-Founder, Kayhan Entertainment,
said,“FAB 5 represents the direction we have always envisioned for Kayhan,
building stories that are rooted in Indian imagination while being universally
engaging. India has already proven its execution capabilities in animation and
VFX for global productions. The next step is ownership, and that is where our
focus lies. Through FAB 5, we are continuing our effort to build original IP
that can travel across platforms, formats, and audiences.”

Adding
to this, Arushi Govil, Co-Founder, Kayhan Entertainment,
said, “For us, children’s storytelling is about more than entertainment it is
about sparking imagination and encouraging young minds to think creatively. FAB
5 has been designed to immerse kids in a world where curiosity,
problem-solving, and courage come naturally through storytelling. At Kayhan,
our focus is on building stories that not only engage children in the moment,
but also inspire how they imagine, explore, and create.”

FAB
5 follows Anand, a kind ten-year-old who discovers a set of magical wooden toys
crafted years ago by a legendary, kind-hearted village toymaker known as
Dadaji. These toys: Rikki, Mimmi, Mitthu, and Mayur… are alive, infused with
the magical energy of Aranyavann after Dadaji bravely intervened to save a
powerful guardian, Zee. Chosen by a sacred Rudraksh left behind to find a true
hero, Anand transforms into ‘Super Anand,’ merging his spirit with his new toy
companions. But FAB 5 is not just a story about magical battles; it is a
coming-of-age journey rooted in universal emotions. Whether he is learning that
true strength lies in taking responsibility for careless mistakes, realizing
that clever teamwork outshines brute force, or discovering the power of empathy
to calm a frightened creature, Anand’s adventures mirror the everyday emotional
growth of a child. Each fast-paced eleven-minute episode blends action,
sophisticated humour, and heart, creating an emotionally intelligent world that
resonates far beyond the screen.

The
launch of FAB 5 further advances Kayhan’s long-term strategy of building an
integrated IP-led ecosystem spanning animation, gaming, digital storytelling,
education through Macra, and immersive experiences including AR and VR.
Conceived as Kayhan’s talent-development engine, Macra is focused on
identifying and nurturing the right creative talent across animation, VFX,
gaming, and digital storytelling equipping emerging creators with industry-led
mentorship, production exposure, and practical skills needed to build globally
relevant IP from India.

As
the studio expands its original content slate, its focus remains firmly on
building stories that can evolve across multiple formats and create lasting
value through transmedia storytelling.

About
Kayhan Entertainment

Kayhan
Entertainment is a next-generation storytelling studio focused on building
original IP rooted in Indian culture and designed for global audiences.
Operating across animation, VFX, gaming, and digital storytelling, the studio
combines creative vision with world-class production expertise to create
culturally resonant stories with transmedia potential.

IP ownership at the core of its strategy, Kayhan is committed to building

<title>CREDAI&#45;MCHI honours Channel Partners as Key Drivers of 60% of Real Estate Sales in MMR at its first&#45;ever exclusive Property Expo for Channel Partners</title>
<link>https://en.newsbolt.in/credai-mchi-honours-channel-partners-as-key-drivers-of-60-of-real-estate-sales-in-mmr-at-its-first-ever-exclusive-property-expo-for-channel-partners</link>
<guid>https://en.newsbolt.in/credai-mchi-honours-channel-partners-as-key-drivers-of-60-of-real-estate-sales-in-mmr-at-its-first-ever-exclusive-property-expo-for-channel-partners</guid>
<description><![CDATA[  First-of-its-kind expo unites 48 associations and 50+ developers to accelerate
collaboration, transparency, and business growth in the real estate market

Mumbai,
May 11, 2026 : Under the visionary leadership of Sukhraj
Nahar, CREDAI-MCHI,
the apex body of real estate developers in the Mumbai Metropolitan Region
(MMR), hosted its first-ever exclusive Property Expo for Channel Partners at
the Jio World Convention Centre, bringing together over 5,000+ channel partners
and 48 channel partner associations on a unified platform created to strengthen
the critical bridge between developers and homebuyers. Recognising that nearly
60% of real estate sales are driven through the channel partner ecosystem, the
initiative was conceptualised to reinforce ease of doing business, recognise
the contribution of channel partners, and foster stronger partnership across
the real estate value chain.

The
expo was conceptualised as a recognition platform for channel partners,
bringing together the entire real estate ecosystem to deepen engagement and
create a more seamless pathway for homebuyers. The event witnessed participation
from channel partners across Mumbai, the wider MMR region, Pune and Nasik
reflecting the growing scale, reach and interconnectedness of the real estate
brokerage ecosystem across key markets .With the Mumbai Metropolitan Region
today comprising an estimated 45,000–60,000 active channel partners nearly
12,000–18,000 of whom operate as highly active institutional and semi-organised
players their contribution has become central to market movement, influencing
nearly 50–60% of residential transactions across MMR. By enabling direct
engagement between developers, channel partners and project teams, the
initiative simplifies the homebuying journey, enhances transparency and
reinforces trust. This integrated approach not only improves ease of doing
business for industry stakeholders but also contributes to ease of living by
helping homebuyers make more informed and confident decisions.

At
the same time, the initiative reinforces CREDAI-MCHI’s commitment to empowering
channel partners by creating a dedicated platform for business acceleration.
With the ecosystem estimated to be growing at 10–15% annually, and organised
institutional channel partner firms expanding at 18–25% year-on-year, this
momentum is being fuelled by rising residential demand, redevelopment activity,
infrastructure-led growth and digital lead generation across key micro-markets
such as Thane, Navi Mumbai, Central Suburbs and extended Western suburbs. By
bringing leading developers and channel partners together under one roof, the
expo enables faster knowledge exchange, stronger business networking, real-time
inventory access and smoother partnership, helping channel partners engage more
effectively while driving higher quality transactions across MMR’s residential
market, which continues to account for over 30,000 quarterly housing sales as
India’s largest housing market.

Emphasising
the importance of trust and awareness, Mr. Boman Irani, Chairman, CREDAI
National, said: “Trust remains the most critical currency in real estate,
and Platforming that trust requires deeper partnership across the ecosystem.
This initiative addresses a critical missing link by bridging the gap between
homebuyers and developers through channel partners, creating a stronger and
more transparent connection across the transaction journey. The more informed
and closely connected channel partners are with developers, their teams and
their service ethos, the greater the trust they can build with customers.
Today’s homebuyers seek confidence and credibility before making one of the
most significant investments of their lives, and that trust can only be built
through deeper knowledge, transparency and stronger relationships across the
ecosystem”

Speaking
on the vision behind the initiative, Mr. Sukharaj Singh Nahar, President,
CREDAI-MCHI, said: “Channel partners are the true ambassadors of our
industry, acting as the vital bridge between developers and homebuyers and
driving nearly 60% of residential transactions. This first-of-its-kind expo has
been created to recognise their contribution, deepen ease of doing business and
bring together a fragmented ecosystem on one unified platform. By enabling
direct engagement with over 50 leading developers, we are creating an
environment of greater trust, sharper market understanding and stronger
collaboration that will help drive the next phase of growth for Mumbai’s real
estate sector.”

Highlighting
the trust-led nature of today’s real estate market, Mr. Rushi Mehta,
Secretary, CREDAI-MCHI, said: “For us, it is ultimately about maintaining
the trust factor and strengthening a process built on transparency. With RERA,
today’s homebuyer has access to accurate and verified information from project
approvals and sale agreements to available inventory and units already sold.
Buyers today are extremely informed and cannot be misled. While technology and
AI are enabling faster engagement, real estate transactions still depend on
human trust, and channel partners remain central to building that confidence.”

Speaking
on the evolving nature of the sector, Mr. Nikunj Sanghavi, Treasurer,
CREDAI-MCHI and Exhibition Co- Convener, said: “Real estate today is not
just about driving business; it is about enabling long-term growth and
empowering buyers to make smarter decisions. Today’s customer is not simply
choosing a home they are choosing a home that fits their aspirations, lifestyle
and long-term value expectations. MMR continues to hold tremendous potential
for this growth. Pricing is ultimately a function of demand and supply, and
today’s customers are highly particular, informed and detail-oriented when
evaluating projects.”

Adding
perspective on broader market growth, Mr. Jitendra Mehta, Senior Vice
President, CREDAI-MCHI, said: “India’s real estate growth story continues
to remain strong, driven by rising aspirations and increasing purchasing
capacity. While global uncertainties may create short-term sentiment shifts,
their impact remains only a temporary blip. For India to unlock greater NRI and
reverse migration-led investments, regulatory support around ease of buying,
selling and fund repatriation will be critical. We are not competing with
global markets; we are focused on building better products and creating a
stronger, more future-ready real estate ecosystem.”

The
event was graced by Mr. Sukharaj Singh Nahar, President, CREDAI-MCHI; Mr. Rushi
Mehta, Secretary, CREDAI-MCHI; Mr. Boman Irani, Chairman, CREDAI National; Mr.
Nikunj Sanghavi, Joint Secretary, CREDAI-MCHI and Exhibition Convener; Mr.
Jitendra Mehta, Senior Vice President, CREDAI-MCHI, Mr. Mayur Shah, Mr.
Shailesh Sanghvi, Mr. Prashant Khandelwal, Mr. Sunny Bijlani along with senior
office bearers, leading developers, and Presidents of all participating channel
partner associations, who were felicitated during the event for their contribution
to strengthening Mumbai’s real estate ecosystem

Additionally
the expo held projects from more than 51 leading developers were showcased at
the expo, spanning offerings from ₹100 crore developments to premium residences
priced at ₹1 lakh per sq. ft., ensuring opportunities across every category and
buyer segment. This assumes greater significance considering that the Mumbai
Metropolitan Region accounts for nearly ₹2.5 lakh crore in residential sales
approximately 40% of India’s total residential market. With India’s real estate
sector projected to contribute 15% to GDP in a $5 trillion economy, the
industry is steadily progressing toward becoming a $1 trillion market, making
stronger channel partner collaboration essential to sustaining this momentum.

A
key highlight of the event was the felicitation of all 48 participating channel
partner associations, including representatives such as Chandresh Vithalani and
Ashish Mehta from National Association of Realtors, Jatin Shah from South
MetroCity Association of Realtors, and Raju Achpilia from The Association of
Real Estate Agent, recognising their invaluable role in market outreach,
customer engagement and transaction enablement. The overwhelming participation
further reinforced the growing need for dedicated, relationship-driven business
platforms that foster trust, transparency and long-term industry growth.

Designed
as a recurring initiative, the expo marks a defining step in CREDAI-MCHI’s
commitment to building a more organised, collaborative and efficient real
estate ecosystem where channel partners continue to remain at the centre of
business acceleration and homebuyer confidence.

text tokens without degradation in audio quality.

This
move delivers 3.6× lower infrastructure cost with higher throughputs and faster
response times than leading GPU alternatives. For enterprises running voice AI
at scale, this is not an incremental improvement. It is a structural shift in
what voice AI costs to deploy and operate.

Lightning
V2 is the first TTS system in the world to achieve production-quality audio
under aggressive low-precision compute — and it is available now, exclusively
on Tenstorrent, AI compute for any scale.

Built
for How Real-Time AI Actually Works

Tenstorrent&#039;s
architecture was designed for continuous, low-latency inference — the kind of
work that real-time voice demands. Data moves directly between compute cores
on-chip, without routing through external memory. For a voice model that
generates speech through iterative refinement, this translates into faster
responses and significantly more efficient execution.

Its
native support for low-precision formats such as BlockFloat8 makes it a natural
fit for the level of optimisation Lightning V2 requires — hardware and model
working in concert, not in compromise.

&quot;Traditional
GPUs are built around massively parallel streaming multiprocessors — powerful
for throughput, but for single-stream, real-time inference like TTS, the
bottleneck isn&#039;t compute, it&#039;s memory movement. Tenstorrent&#039;s architecture is
fundamentally different. 

We
use a Network-on-Chip connecting cores directly with large distributed SRAM,
and data moves core-to-core without round-tripping through DRAM. We&#039;ve built
efficient AI hardware that reduces the cost of existing workflows and unlocks
applications previously not economically feasible.&quot;

—
Amr Elashmawi, VP of Strategy &amp; Business Development, Tenstorrent

The
Engineering Behind This

This
is not just a port. Lightning V2 was rebuilt from the ground up for how
Tenstorrent moves data. Over 95% of the model now runs in reduced-precision
arithmetic (LoFi), with more than 80% operating in BlockFloat8 — achieving zero
audible degradation at production quality. It is the first TTS system in the
world to combine both at this scale without compromising voice.

Optimising
a voice model is a different problem from optimising a language model. A
language model produces tokens — discrete outputs where small numerical errors
are naturally absorbed. A voice model produces a continuous audio waveform:
tens of thousands of data points per second, each one shaping what a listener
hears.

Push
the wrong part of the model into lower precision and the result isn&#039;t a
slightly worse output – it&#039;s robotic distortion, background hiss, or pitch that
collapses mid-sentence. The human ear catches what standard engineering metrics
completely miss.

During
development, the team encountered a layer that scored perfectly on every
numerical test and was still causing audible breakage. Finding it took over a
month. That depth of work — custom compute routines, layer-by-layer
experimentation, perceptual validation — is what makes the result possible.
Lightning V2 wasn&#039;t optimised until it broke. It was co-designed with the
hardware until both performed at their best.

&quot;Tenstorrent&#039;s
architecture is fundamentally different than existing paradigms. Working with
the NoC and larger SRAM that define the data movement fluidity, we unlocked 4x
gains, driving a structural shift in inference economics.&quot;

—
Ranjith, Senior AI Inference Performance Engineer, Smallest.ai

The
Performance in Numbers

Supporting
550 simultaneous voice calls (assuming zero idle time between requests):

•  On NVIDIA L40S: 11 GPUs — approximately
$100,000

•  On Tenstorrent P100: 27 accelerators —
approximately $27,000 — 3.6× lower cost

Voice
AI at Population Scale- Finally Possible

In
a future where billions of people speak to voice AI every day, the economics of
how it runs matters as much as the quality of how it sounds. Until now, the
organisations with the most to gain from deploying voice AI at scale have faced
the steepest barrier to doing so.

Regulated
industries — Financial services, healthcare, and telecoms companies that need
data to stay on their own infrastructure can now meet GDPR, HIPAA, and
sovereign data requirements without the hardware cost making it impractical.

Growth-stage
companies — Teams that couldn&#039;t previously justify the capital spend can now
access the same quality of voice infrastructure as the largest players in their
market.

High-volume
operations — Contact centres, voice agents, and multilingual support operations
can scale without infrastructure cost becoming the ceiling on what&#039;s possible.

&quot;Voice
AI has always been held back by the assumption that you need expensive
infrastructure to do it well. What we&#039;ve built with Tenstorrent proves
otherwise.&quot;

—
Akshat Mandloi, CTO, Smallest.ai

Lightning
V3 Is Already on the Horizon

Smallest.ai&#039;s
next model, Lightning V3, already outperforms OpenAI, Cartesia, and ElevenLabs
on key voice quality benchmarks. The same co-design methodology is now being
applied to bring V3 to Tenstorrent — with early optimisation work pointing to
gains that could surpass what V2 has achieved.

Note:
Lightning V3 is not part of this release. Lightning V2 is available on
Tenstorrent now, with usage-based pricing and no upfront commitments.

for its calm nature and ability to adapt to life on the seabed.

The
successful breeding at VGP Marine Kingdom reflects the aquarium’s high
standards of aquatic care, habitat management, and the expertise of its marine
specialists. The shark eggs are currently being carefully monitored and
protected in a dedicated quarantine and incubation system managed by the
aquarium’s marine team to ensure safe development.

Visitors
to VGP Marine Kingdom will also have the unique opportunity to witness the
incubation process and learn more about shark species, marine ecosystems, and
conservation practices. The aquarium plans to use this milestone as an
educational platform to raise awareness about the importance of protecting
marine biodiversity.

Captive
breeding initiatives like this play an important role in reducing reliance on
wild populations and promoting sustainable aquarium practices. Such efforts
also contribute to research, species understanding, and long-term conservation
strategies.

Speaking
about the achievement, Mr. VGPR Premdas, Director, VGP Marine Kingdom, said,
“The successful breeding of the Brownbanded Bamboo Shark is a proud and
significant moment for VGP Marine Kingdom. It reflects the dedication and
expertise of our marine team and our commitment to marine conservation and
education. Achievements like this place VGP Marine Kingdom among the few
aquariums contributing to captive marine breeding efforts in India, while also
helping create greater awareness about protecting our ocean ecosystems.”

11. Aadivasi Welfare
Foundation

Reimagining CSR in
India: From Plantation Drives to Ecosystems

Environmental CSR in
India is shifting from symbolic tree plantation drives to long-term, measurable
sustainability models. Companies are now prioritizing biodiversity restoration,
community ownership, and livelihood integration over one-time activities.

Traditional
plantation efforts often struggled due to low survival rates and lack of local
involvement. In response, newer approaches focus on native species, ecological
alignment, and sustained monitoring. Organizations like Aadivasi Welfare
Foundation (AWF) exemplify this shift through landscape-based restoration,
geo-tagged tracking, and community participation.

Innovative models
such as Aadivasi.org combine afforestation with tribal handicrafts, linking
environmental impact with income generation. Meanwhile, IMPCA integrates carbon
credits with rural livelihoods, turning plantations into long-term economic
assets.

Today, CSR success is
measured not by saplings planted, but by survival rates, biodiversity impact,
carbon outcomes, and community benefits—marking a decisive move toward
scalable, accountable ecosystem building.

<link>https://en.newsbolt.in/solrato-joined-hands-with-solaire-to-penetrate-5-billion-market-of-north-india</link>
<guid>https://en.newsbolt.in/solrato-joined-hands-with-solaire-to-penetrate-5-billion-market-of-north-india</guid>
<description><![CDATA[ ​In a major
development for the renewable energy sector, Solrato Power has officially announced a
strategic partnership with Solaire, a proud &quot;Make in India&quot; brand
backed by the 30-year legacy of Kerala’s esteemed Lagnuvo Group. The
collaboration is designed to aggressively target and capture a significant
share of the rapidly expanding $5 billion green energy market across North
India.

​The alliance
leverages Solrato Power&#039;s deep regional roots and localized deployment
expertise alongside Solaire&#039;s high-efficiency, advanced solar infrastructure
solutions. Together, the two entities aim to transform the energy landscape for
residential, commercial, agricultural, and industrial consumers throughout
Uttar Pradesh, Haryana, Delhi NCR, and surrounding regions.

Government
Schemes and &#039;Make in India&#039; Driving Unprecedented Growth

​The North Indian
solar market is on the brink of exponential expansion, heavily catalyzed by
landmark government initiatives such as the PM Surya Ghar Muft Bijli Yojana and
the PM KUSUM Scheme. These programs are drastically lowering the barrier to
entry for residential homeowners and the agricultural sector, creating massive,
unprecedented demand for reliable power generation.

​Simultaneously,
industry experts project a rapid surge in growth for domestic manufacturers due
to the anticipated introduction of ALMM (Approved List of Models and
Manufacturers) regulations for solar inverters, mirroring the existing mandates
for solar panels. As the market shifts to favor domestic manufacturing, an
Indian brand armed with a 30-year legacy of trust is the perfect choice for
consumers seeking genuine &quot;Make in India&quot; products.

​Solaire
perfectly addresses this need, offering a highly versatile product lineup that
encompasses both Low Voltage and High Voltage segments within its state-of-the-art
On-Grid and Hybrid inverter ranges.

Voices from the
Leadership

​The leadership of
both companies expressed immense optimism about the joint venture&#039;s potential
to disrupt the traditional energy grid and champion domestic manufacturing.

​Nabeel Firoz,
Director of Solrato Power:

&quot;This
collaboration with Solaire marks a pivotal milestone for our company. The North
Indian market, currently valued at $5 billion, presents an incredible
opportunity for scalable and sustainable energy implementation. Furthermore,
with the anticipated ALMM regulations for inverters, aligning with a trusted
&#039;Make in India&#039; brand is a strategic imperative. Solaire&#039;s 30-year legacy
through the Lagnuvo Group gives our customers the ultimate assurance of quality
and longevity, providing the perfect solution whether they require low voltage
residential setups or high-capacity commercial hybrid inverters.&quot;

​Yasif Eqbal, VP
Sales of Solaire:

&quot;At
Solaire, our core objective has always been to democratize access to clean
energy through world-class, indigenous technology. Partnering with Solrato
Power gives us the vital, localized market penetration required to rapidly
scale our distribution across North India. As a proud &#039;Make in India&#039; brand
backed by three decades of engineering excellence from the Lagnuvo Group, we
are uniquely equipped to meet the surging demand driven by the PM Surya Ghar
and KUSUM schemes. Solrato’s aggressive on-ground strategy perfectly
complements our comprehensive low and high voltage inverter portfolios.&quot;

​Key Focus Areas
for the Partnership

​To effectively
penetrate the $5 billion market, the Solrato-Solaire alliance will prioritize
the following initiatives over the next 12 to 18 months:

​Agricultural
and Residential Accessibility: Capitalizing on the PM
Surya Ghar and KUSUM schemes by launching simplified, cost-effective home and
farm solar setups with seamless financing options.

​Commercial and
Industrial (C&amp;I) Integration: Providing
end-to-end, high-voltage installations for manufacturing hubs and corporate
parks using advanced Hybrid and On-Grid inverters.

​After-Sales
Excellence: Establishing localized service centers to ensure rapid
maintenance, maximizing the lifespan and efficiency of the deployed solar power
grids.

​With operations
already scaling up in key cities, this partnership is set to heavily impact
regional market shares. As Solrato Power and Solaire synchronize their efforts,
North India&#039;s transition toward a sustainable, domestically-powered solar
future appears more accelerated than ever. ]]></description>

<title>Yes Securities&amp;apos; Demat account App is Part of India&amp;apos;s 21.6 Crore Demat Boom as CDSL Adds 76 Lakh New Accounts in Q3 FY26 Alone</title>
<link>https://en.newsbolt.in/yes-securities-demat-account-app-is-part-of-indias-216-crore-demat-boom-as-cdsl-adds-76-lakh-new-accounts-in-q3-fy26-alone</link>
<guid>https://en.newsbolt.in/yes-securities-demat-account-app-is-part-of-indias-216-crore-demat-boom-as-cdsl-adds-76-lakh-new-accounts-in-q3-fy26-alone</guid>
<description><![CDATA[ India’s
financial markets have witnessed a steady rise in retail participation,
supported by increasing awareness and digital accessibility. This trend is
reflected in the growing number of Demat accounts, which have crossed 21.6
crore, indicating a broad expansion of the investor base. In addition, CDSL
added around 76 lakh new accounts in Q3 FY26 alone, highlighting continued
momentum in new account openings. The rise in participation suggests that more
individuals are exploring equity and market-linked investments as part of their
financial planning. Digital platforms and simplified onboarding processes have
played an important role in enabling this shift. In this article, we examine
the factors contributing to this growth and the role of Demat account apps in
supporting new investors.

Expansion
of Retail Investor Participation

The
increase in Demat accounts reflects a broader shift in how individuals approach
investing. Traditionally, participation in equity markets was limited to a
smaller segment of investors. However, with easier access to information and
digital tools, more individuals now open Demat account
and consider equities and related instruments.

Key
factors contributing to this expansion include:

●       
Increased financial literacy and awareness

●       
Availability of online investment platforms

●       
Growth of mobile-based financial services

●       
Greater access to real-time market data

This
shift has made investing more inclusive, allowing individuals from different
regions and backgrounds to participate in financial markets.

Role
of CDSL in Account Growth

Depositories
such as CDSL play a central role in maintaining electronic records of
securities. The addition of 76 lakh new accounts in a single quarter reflects
the scale at which new investors are entering the system.

This
growth may be linked to several developments:

●       
Increased IPO activity attracting new
investors

●       
Rising interest in equity markets during
periods of market movement

●       
Simplified account opening processes

●       
Expansion of digital financial services

As
the number of Demat accounts grows, the supporting infrastructure continues to
evolve to manage higher transaction volumes and user activity.

Digital
Onboarding and Accessibility

One
of the primary drivers of this growth is the shift towards digital onboarding.
Investors can now open Demat accounts through online platforms without the need
for physical documentation or branch visits.

Most
platforms offer:

●       
Online KYC verification

●       
Paperless documentation

●       
Quick account activation timelines

●       
Mobile app-based onboarding

These
features reduce the time and effort required to open an account, making it
easier for first-time investors to enter the market. In many cases, the entire
process can be completed within a short duration, depending on verification
requirements.

Importance
of Demat account Apps

Demat
account apps have become a central tool for managing investments in the digital
era. These apps provide a unified interface where investors can monitor their
holdings, track market movements, and execute transactions.

Common
features of a Demat account app
include:

●       
Real-time tracking of stock prices

●       
Portfolio overview and performance monitoring

●       
Buy and sell order execution

●       
Transaction history and reporting

●       
Alerts and notifications

Such
features help investors stay informed and manage their investments efficiently,
especially in fast-moving market conditions.

Changing
Profile of Investors

The
growth in Demat accounts also reflects a shift in the demographic profile of
investors. Younger individuals, including first-time earners and early
professionals, are increasingly participating in financial markets.

This
group typically prefers:

●       
Mobile-first investment platforms

●       
Simple and intuitive user interfaces

●       
Quick onboarding processes

●       
Access to learning resources

As a
result, digital platforms are adapting their offerings to cater to these
preferences, making investing more accessible and user-friendly.

Integration
of Research and Tools

While
ease of access is important, the availability of research tools and market
insights also plays a role in supporting investor decisions. Many platforms now
integrate research reports, charts, and analytics within their apps.

These
tools may help investors:

●       
Analyse market trends

●       
Evaluate investment opportunities

●       
Track portfolio performance over time

In
this context, platforms such as YES Securities offer Demat account apps that
combine digital onboarding with access to investment tools and market insights,
supporting users as they navigate the investing process.

Impact
on Market Participation

The
rise in Demat accounts has contributed to broader market participation. With
more individuals able to access investment platforms, trading volumes and
investor engagement have increased.

At
the same time, the availability of digital tools has made it easier for
investors to:

●       
Monitor market developments

●       
Execute trades quickly

●       
Manage portfolios in real time

However,
increased participation also highlights the importance of informed
decision-making and understanding market risks.

Conclusion

The
growth to over 21.6 crore Demat accounts, along with the addition of 76 lakh
new accounts by CDSL in Q3 FY26, reflects the expanding base of retail
investors in India. Digital platforms, simplified onboarding processes, and
mobile investment apps have made it easier for individuals to participate in
financial markets. As this trend continues, access to user-friendly tools and
structured investment platforms remains important. Platforms like YES
Securities are part of this evolving ecosystem, offering digital account
opening and investment access through app-based solutions. As participation
increases, a balanced and informed approach to investing becomes essential for
long-term financial planning.

<title>iNvent Returns to Moti Nagar with New Apple Authorised Reseller Store, Brings Premium Apple Experience Closer to West Delhi</title>
<link>https://en.newsbolt.in/invent-returns-to-moti-nagar-with-new-apple-authorised-reseller-store-brings-premium-apple-experience-closer-to-west-delhi</link>
<guid>https://en.newsbolt.in/invent-returns-to-moti-nagar-with-new-apple-authorised-reseller-store-brings-premium-apple-experience-closer-to-west-delhi</guid>
<description><![CDATA[ New
Delhi, 9th May 2026 : iNvent has expanded
its presence in Delhi NCR with the launch of a new Apple Authorised Reseller
(AAR) store in Moti Nagar, marking a return to a location the brand was
associated with nearly a decade ago.

Located
at Ground Floor, DLF Mid Town Plaza, Shop No. SH-14, the 900 sq. ft.
store is positioned to serve one of West Delhi’s fast-evolving residential and
commercial catchments, where access to premium tech retail and guided purchase
experiences has remained limited.

For
iNvent, this isn’t just another store opening but a strategic move to deepen
its presence in neighbourhoods where demand for Apple products is growing but
retail experience hasn’t kept pace.

Moti
Nagar today sits at the intersection of new luxury housing, emerging commercial
hubs, and a growing base of young professionals and business owners. With DLF
Midtown and surrounding developments reshaping the area, iNvent sees an
opportunity to bridge a clear gap not just in product availability, but in how
Apple devices are experienced and purchased.

Interestingly,
the brand had a footprint in this area as early as 2013, making this launch
something of a full-circle moment.

The
store offers the full range of Apple products including iPhones, MacBooks,
iPads, Apple Watch, AirPods and Apple Original Accessories. But the focus
is clearly on experience, where the customer can access:

Hands-on
product demos 

Apple-trained
experts for guided purchase decisions 

Assistance
with device setup, data transfer, and troubleshooting 

Multiple
affordability options including instant cashback, no-cost EMI and financing

The
idea is simple to move beyond transactional selling and create a space where
consumers can explore, understand, and make informed decisions.

Swarn
Bajaj, Founder &amp; CEO, P3S
Ventures Pvt. Ltd. said, “This launch is special for us because Moti
Nagar is where our journey had roots nearly a decade ago. Coming back here, at
a time when the neighbourhood is transforming into a premium residential and
commercial hub, feels like a natural progression. At iNvent, we are not just
opening stores, we are building spaces where people can truly understand and
experience Apple products before they buy. For us, it’s about combining
accessibility with the right guidance, so customers can make confident choices.&quot;

Launch
Offers: To mark the opening, iNvent has rolled out
aggressive launch offers across categories:

iPhone
17 (256GB) available at an effective price of INR 74,900


iPhone
Air (256GB) at INR 90,900 after combined benefits 

iPhone
17 Pro Max at INR 1,38,900 

iPhone
16 (128GB) at INR 63,900

Across
categories:

MacBooks:
Flat 12% student discounts + cashback up to INR 7,000 

iPads:
Flat 10% student discounts + cashback up to INR 3,000 

Apple
Watch Ultra 3: Flat INR 10,000 off + cashback up to INR
3,000

AirPods
range: Discounts with additional cashback benefits 

Additionally,
customers can avail exchange bonuses of up to INR 10,000, making
upgrades more accessible.

With
this launch, iNvent continues to build a retail model that makes premium
technology more approachable through guidance, affordability, and a stronger
on-ground presence.

As
the Apple ecosystem continues to grow in India, the real differentiator is no longer
just access to products, but the quality of the buying experience and that’s
where iNvent is clearly placing its bet. ]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[ Across India’s dynamic professional landscape, mothers are
redefining strength with resilience, ambition, and grace. From leading
boardrooms and building startups to excelling in creative, healthcare, and
grassroots sectors, they are breaking stereotypes while nurturing both families
and careers. Their journeys reflect not just multitasking, but transformation -
of workplaces, mindsets, and future generations. These women embody
perseverance, adaptability, and purpose, proving that motherhood is not a limitation
but a powerful force of leadership. As they rise across diverse industries,
they inspire a new narrative - one where strength is compassionate, success is
inclusive, and every challenge becomes a stepping stone to greater impact.

Blending heritage with modern purpose, Priyadarshini Raje
Scindia is redefining what it means to lead with intention. As the visionary
behind Aaranya, a conscious luxury label inspired by nature, she curates
thoughtfully crafted fashion and lifestyle pieces that celebrate India’s rich
artisanal heritage while embracing sustainability. The name Aaranya; meaning
‘forest’ and inspired by her children, Mahanaaryaman and Ananya Raje, reflects
both personal roots and a philosophy grounded in growth, continuity, and
mindful living.

Motherhood has been a defining influence in her journey,
shaping her sense of responsibility, perspective, and purpose over the years.
As a mother to two grown children, she brings a deep-rooted understanding of
nurturing, patience, and legacy into her work. Through Aaranya, she champions
artisanal excellence while creating meaningful opportunities for local
communities, especially women artisans, extending the same values of care and
strength beyond her home into a larger social impact.

<title>ABB India posts solid start to CY2026 led by strong demand in Jan&#45;Mar quarter</title>
<link>https://en.newsbolt.in/abb-india-posts-solid-start-to-cy2026-led-by-strong-demand-in-jan-mar-quarter</link>
<guid>https://en.newsbolt.in/abb-india-posts-solid-start-to-cy2026-led-by-strong-demand-in-jan-mar-quarter</guid>
<description><![CDATA[ Bengaluru, India – May 9, 2026 : ABB India today announced a strong beginning to the calendar year
2026, marked by robust order momentum and continued revenue growth. For the
first quarter ended March 31, 2026, the company posted a 25 percent
year-on-year increase in orders, totaling ₹4,280 crore, which demonstrates
resilient demand across key industrial segments. During this period, revenues
grew by 6 percent to ₹3,184 crore, while the Profit After Tax stood at ₹342
crore. The company’s executable order backlog has reached ₹11,094 crore,
representing a 17 percent increase compared to the previous year and providing
solid visibility for future performance.

The company&#039;s order intake for the quarter
reflected strong demand conditions, with the Electrification and Motion
businesses delivering robust growth fueled by sustained industrial activity.
This was particularly evident in emerging sectors such as data centers and
renewable energy, alongside steady contributions from railways and metros.
While revenues increased to ₹3,184 crore, profitability was impacted by an
adverse revenue mix, the execution of lower-margin orders, and elevated input
costs amid forex volatility. Additionally, geopolitical tensions in West Asia
led to increased logistics complexity and higher costs.

During the quarter, ABB India also
announced a significant USD 75 million investment aimed at expanding its
manufacturing and R&amp;D capabilities for critical segments including
renewable energy, metro rail, and data centers. Key operational milestones
included the dispatch of the first locally manufactured wind power converter
from the Nelamangala facility, the launch of the ARTU Formula next-generation
low-voltage switchgear platform, and the completion of a major automation and
cybersecurity upgrade for BPCL’s 937km Vadinar–Bina crude pipeline.

“ABB India has built a strong and resilient
foundation, anchored in our product, service and technology capabilities. This
strength was reflected in a solid first quarter of CY2026, with healthy order
traction and revenue growth driven by demand momentum across emerging and core
industries. Our effective conversion of market opportunities into higher order
inflows has further strengthened our diversified order book and enhanced
revenue visibility. Backed by disciplined execution, strong customer engagement
and loyalty to ABB India’s offerings, I am confident in our people and
operating model as we continue to deliver consistent performance. With these
strengths, ABB India is well positioned to capitalise on India’s next
industrial capex cycle, even as we navigate a dynamic operating environment,”
said Sanjeev Sharma, Country Head and Managing Director, ABB India.

Looking ahead, ABB India remains
well-positioned to leverage resilient domestic demand, supported by
government-led investments in infrastructure, grid modernization, and
renewables. As a global technology leader in electrification and automation
with over 140 years of history, ABB continues to enable a more sustainable and
resource-efficient future by connecting engineering and digitalization
expertise to help industries run at high performance.

<title>ConfirmTkt Launches AI Seat Finder, Rolls Out Unconventional Campaign with RCB Players</title>
<link>https://en.newsbolt.in/confirmtkt-launches-ai-seat-finder-rolls-out-unconventional-campaign-with-rcb-players</link>
<guid>https://en.newsbolt.in/confirmtkt-launches-ai-seat-finder-rolls-out-unconventional-campaign-with-rcb-players</guid>
<description><![CDATA[ -The
new conversational AI-powered feature helps train travellers find confirmed
tickets - even when their preferred train is waitlisted; now available in Hindi
and English

-Rolls
out a new campaign with Virat Kohli, Rajat Patidar and Venkatesh Iyer highlighting
AI Seat Finder in action

Gurugram/Bengaluru,
8th May 2026 : ConfirmTkt, India’s leading train-ticketing
platform and the Official Train Ticketing Partner of Royal Challengers
Bengaluru (RCB) for 2026, today announced the launch of AI Seat Finder (powered
by TARA, which is an AI native agent developed by ixigo), an intelligent,
in-app feature designed to help users find confirmed train tickets with ease.

Integrated seamlessly
into the ConfirmTkt app, AI Seat Finder (powered by TARA) is a conversational
AI-powered feature which activates as soon as a user begins searching for
trains, analysing real-time availability to guide them towards the best
possible travel options. It highlights trains with confirmed seats, suggests
train alternatives across routes, boarding points and departure times, and
allows users to interact conversationally with queries such as “Show me
confirmed train tickets after 5 PM” or “Which trains with confirmed seats will
reach the earliest?” In doing so, it transforms what has traditionally been a
fragmented, multi-step and uncertain booking experience into a simple, guided
journey.

In a category where
millions of users drop off due to waitlists or lack of clarity, AI Seat Finder
(powered by TARA) introduces a fundamentally new and innovative way to discover
and book train tickets. By combining real-time data with conversational AI, it
removes the guesswork from the process and makes finding a confirmed train seat
faster, more intuitive and significantly more seamless for travellers across
India. 

Available in Hindi and
English, the feature is designed to serve travellers across India, including
those in non-metro and high train-traffic regions.

The launch is amplified
by ConfirmTkt’s new campaign, ‘Talk
Travel Repeat – AI Seat Finder Dilayega Seat’, as
it marks its third consecutive year as the Official Train Ticketing Partner of
Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB). The campaign comes alive through a
high-energy, humour-led ad film featuring RCB players Virat Kohli, Rajat
Patidar and Venkatesh Iyer highlighting AI Seat Finder and how it is making it
easier for train travellers to find confirmed tickets or same train alternate
options. The campaign will be amplified across television, digital platforms,
social media, and in-stadium integrations throughout the season, extending
across digital, social, OOH and PR.

Commenting on the
launch, Dinesh Kumar Kotha, CEO, ConfirmTkt &amp; ixigo Trains, said, “Getting
a confirmed train ticket in India has always involved a degree of uncertainty
and effort. With AI Seat Finder (powered by TARA), we are reimagining this
experience by making it conversational and outcome-driven. Instead of
navigating multiple options and screens, users can now simply express their
intent and let the app guide them to the best possible journey. This is a
significant step in our vision of building an AI-first travel experience that
is simpler, more accessible and truly built around the needs of Indian
travellers. We’re also excited to continue our partnership with RCB for the
third year, bringing this innovation to millions of fans during the cricket
season.”

<description><![CDATA[  

India’s commercial EV ecosystem is steadily evolving from
early-stage adoption towards larger-scale deployment, particularly within
logistics and fleet operations. The EV Fleet &amp; Logistics Forum 2026, hosted
by EV Update Media, brought together stakeholders from across the EV value
chain to discuss financing, infrastructure, operational challenges, and the
future of sustainable mobility in India.

Which Industry Leaders and EV Companies Participated in the
Forum?

The forum brought together key players from across the EV
value chain, including EV manufacturers, fleet operators, and financiers. Some
notable participants included:

●     
Ms Alpna Jain - Co-Founder &amp;
Chief Business Officer, Drivn Transition Pvt Ltd

Among the
participating leaders, Alpna Jain, Co-Founder and Chief Business Officer at Drivn Transition
Pvt Ltd, contributed valuable insights during discussions on commercial EV
adoption, financing models, and operational scalability. Her presence at the
forum underscored the critical role of EV fleet logistics companies in India,
as they continue to shape conversations around sustainable fleet deployment and
infrastructure readiness.

The forum also reflected the industry’s shift towards
building a commercially viable EV ecosystem. Rather than focusing solely on
vehicle adoption, discussions are increasingly centred on infrastructure
integration, operational efficiency, and leasing-led deployment models.

What Key EV Fleet Solutions Trends Were Discussed During the
Event?

A major focus area at the forum was the changing nature of
EV fleet financing and operations in India. Industry experts discussed how
conventional underwriting methods are gradually evolving due to factors such as
battery lifecycle management, residual value uncertainty, telematics-based
performance tracking, and fleet utilisation analytics.

The discussions also reflected how EV fleet solutions
are becoming more integrated, with companies increasingly focusing on leasing
models, charging infrastructure support, route optimisation, and operational
efficiency alongside vehicle deployment.

  support
  
 
 
  
  Logistics Adoption
  
  
  Stronger EV adoption across last-mile and intra-city
  logistics
  
 


Another
important discussion point was the role of capital markets and institutional
investments in accelerating EV adoption. Participants highlighted how platforms
such as NSE India and NSE Emerge could support EV-focused companies seeking
access to long-term growth capital.

Why Is the EV Fleet &amp; Logistics Forum Important for
India’s EV Ecosystem?

The forum illustrated how India’s EV ecosystem is evolving
from isolated efforts to a connected, collaborative industry, with key players
from across financing, infrastructure, logistics, software, and fleet
operations joining forces to solve scalability and operational challenges. 

For EV fleet companies in India,
such as Drivn Transition Pvt Ltd, represented by Alpna Jain, the forum provided
invaluable opportunities to share insights on EV adoption, discuss best
practices in financing models, and explore long-term growth avenues. It was not
just a chance for Drivn, but for all participants, to align on common objectives,
collectively address industry challenges, and accelerate the journey towards a
sustainable, greener future for India’s logistics sector.

Summary

The EV Fleet &amp; Logistics Forum 2026 highlighted the
growing maturity of India’s commercial EV sector, particularly within logistics
and fleet operations. With stronger financing discussions, increasing
collaboration across the ecosystem, and rising interest in scalable EV fleet
solutions, the industry is steadily moving towards broader commercial adoption
across India’s mobility landscape.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the lifespan of an EV battery?

The lifespan of an EV battery generally ranges between 8 and
15 years, depending on vehicle usage, charging patterns, driving conditions,
and battery management systems. Advancements in battery technology and thermal
management are also helping improve long-term battery performance and
efficiency.

Why is financing important for EV fleet solutions?

Financing plays an important role in EV fleet solutions
because commercial electric vehicles often involve higher upfront costs
compared to conventional vehicles. Structured financing models, leasing
options, and green funding support help fleet operators adopt EVs while
managing operational expenses and long-term scalability.

What challenges do EV fleet companies in India face?

EV fleet companies in India continue to face challenges
related to charging infrastructure expansion, battery lifecycle management,
standardisation, and financing structures. Companies such as Drivn Transition
Pvt Ltd are part of the growing ecosystem working towards scalable EV fleet
solutions that address operational efficiency and long-term commercial
adoption.

L’ORÉAL
PARIS, FESTIVAL DE CANNES PARTNER FOR THE PAST 29 YEARS REAFFIRMS ITS
LONG-STANDING COMMITMENT TO SUPPORTING WOMEN IN CINEMA

INDIA,
8th May 2026 : L&#039;Oréal Paris, the world’s No. 1 beauty
brand, proudly returns as the Official Beauty Partner of the Festival de Cannes
for the 29th consecutive year, reaffirming its longstanding commitment to
celebrating women’s empowerment, inclusivity and self-worth on one of the
world’s most iconic global stages. Held from 12th May to 23rd
May 2026, this year’s Festival once again brings together cinema, culture and
beauty in a powerful tribute to female voices and representation worldwide. The
world’s leading beauty brand also presents the sixth edition of the L’Oréal
Paris Lights on Women’s Worth Award, with actress and L’Oréal Paris ambassador
Gillian Anderson as the Juror.

Representing
India at this year’s Festival de Cannes are L&#039;Oréal Paris ambassadors - Aishwarya
Rai Bachchan, Alia Bhatt and Aditi Rao Hydari each embodying a
distinct expression of confidence, ambition and individuality. Together, they
reflect the rising prominence of Indian talent on the international stage while
reinforcing L&#039;Oréal Paris’ vision of championing women who inspire through both
achievement and authenticity.

Indian
actor, producer, and entrepreneur Alia Bhatt is
returning to Cannes in her role as Global Ambassador for L’Oréal Paris for the
second consecutive year. Speaking about her return to the Festival, Alia said, &quot;It
feels incredibly special to return to Cannes with L’Oréal Paris for the second
time. Last year was such an unforgettable experience and I am truly excited to
be back for what feels like an even bigger celebration this year. There is a
beautiful energy here, one of sisterhood and the celebration of female voices,
and it is a privilege to be part of this journey with a brand that so strongly
champions women’s worth and empowerment.&quot;

This
year, Aditi Rao Hydari’s Cannes presence adds a fresh layer to India’s global
story, reflecting a blend of aspiration, elegance, and confident
self-expression that goes beyond cinema.

Speaking
about her Cannes journey, Aditi Rao Hydari said, &quot;I am honoured
to represent L&#039;Oréal Paris at the Festival de Cannes. For me, true beauty lies
in embracing who you are unapologetically and owning your individuality with
confidence. Cannes is such an iconic global platform, and being part of this
journey with a brand that has consistently championed women’s empowerment makes
it incredibly meaningful. I believe every woman deserves to feel seen, valued
and worthy and that message resonates deeply with me.&quot;

Further
commenting on this year’s participation, Dario Zizzi, General Manager, L&#039;Oréal
Paris India, said: &quot;Twenty-nine years at Cannes has shown us
how profoundly this stage can amplify voices that deserve to be heard globally.
This year feels particularly meaningful with Indian creativity and beauty
reflected on the world&#039;s most iconic red carpet is a testament to how far we&#039;ve
come together. For L&#039;Oréal Paris, Cannes has never just been about glamour;
it&#039;s about championing the women who are rewriting the rules of culture, cinema
and beauty on their own terms”

As
part of a strategic collaboration, L’Oréal Paris has partnered with the Indian
beauty e-commerce platform Nykaa as its “Beauty Partner” in India this year.
Through this partnership, Nykaa is bringing the glamour of Cannes to the Indian

<title>thefinebox launches nickel&#45;safe jewelry in India with a promise of affordable luxury, quality craftsmanship and accessibility</title>

<description><![CDATA[ NEW DELHI
May 8, 2026 :  thefinebox, India&#039;s first accessible jewelry brand built entirely on
certified skin-safe materials, has officially launched with a mission to end
what its founder calls the industry&#039;s most persistent silence: the undisclosed
use of nickel in everyday gold-plated jewelry. The brand offers two certified
materials — 925 hallmarked sterling silver and 18k gold vermeil over sterling
silver — both completely nickel-safe, and backed by a one-year wear warranty; a
first in India&#039;s accessible jewelry market.

India has questioned fast fashion,
scrutinised skincare ingredients, and led one of the world&#039;s most active
conversations on lab-grown diamonds. Yet jewelry — worn against the skin every
single day — has remained exempt from scrutiny. Most accessible jewelry sold
across India uses nickel-based alloy as its base metal beneath a thin gold
plating. Nickel is one of the most common contact allergens in the world. The
resulting rashes have long gone unnamed, undiagnosed, and unreported — women
blaming themselves for sensitive skin, when the cause was in the metal.

thefinebox addresses this with gold vermeil — pronounced ver-may — the
global standard for accessible fine jewelry, widely available across Europe and
North America, and now introduced to India&#039;s accessible market for the first
time. Vermeil is defined as 18k gold plated over a hallmarked sterling silver
base. The result is jewelry that meets international skin-safety standards,
lasts significantly longer than conventional plated pieces, and carries a
warranty the industry has never offered.

Material
Standard: Industry vs. thefinebox








Most Indian Brands

●      
Material:
Uses thin gold plating over a nickel alloy base.

●      
Skin
Safety: Often contains nickel, which is a very common skin allergen that can
cause irritation or rashes.

●      
Longevity:
Typically comes with no warranty, meaning if the plating fades or breaks,
you&#039;re on your own.

thefinebox

●      
Material:
Uses 18k gold vermeil (a significantly thicker layer of gold) over 925
hallmarked sterling silver.

●      
Skin
Safety: Guaranteed 100% nickel-safe, making it ideal for those with sensitive
skin or metal allergies.

●      
Longevity:
Includes a 1-year wear warranty, offering peace of mind regarding the
durability of the finish.

 

 

“I grew up in a village where
jewelry sat behind glass — for other people. I moved to Canada at 19 with
nothing, built franchises, real estate, and Michelin-recognised restaurants.

Through every industry, the
question was always the same: what does this person deserve? When I got into
manufacturing, I saw what the jewelry industry had quietly chosen — nickel
alloys, thin plating, no accountability. Women were getting rashes and blaming
themselves. India’s young women question everything now — except what touches
their skin every day. That ends with thefinebox.”

— Mitul Kakadiya, Founder,
thefinebox

 

About
the Founder

Mitul Kakadiya was raised beside
Gujarat’s Gir forest. At 19, he left India to build a future across
franchising, manufacturing, and hospitality in Canada, earning the Michelin Bib
Gourmand recognition consecutively in 2022 and 2023. thefinebox marks his
return to India with a single conviction: quality is not a luxury — it is a
right.

 

Collections:
Design Built on Meaning

thefinebox launches with six
collections across three distinct design philosophies, each developed to move
away from trend-chasing and toward enduring intention:

•  Sculptural &amp; Statement: Architectural forms, bold ear
cuffs, and oversized pendants designed to command a room.

•  Nature-Led &amp; Symbolic: Dragonflies, birthstones, and
botanicals. Designs rooted in nature, which does not follow trends.

•  Everyday Essentials: Clean, stackable, quietly distinctive
pieces — the kind she forgets she is wearing, until someone asks.

 

About
thefinebox

thefinebox is India’s first
accessible jewelry brand built on 925 hallmarked sterling silver and 18k gold
vermeil. All pieces are 100% nickel-safe and carry a one-year wear warranty.
The brand operates under the philosophy “Honestly Flawed, Perfectly Fine” — a
commitment to radical material transparency in a category that has long avoided
it. thefinebox is available exclusively online at thefinebox.com.

<description><![CDATA[ New
Delhi, India — May 07, 2026 : Innefu Labs, an AI-driven company providing
cutting edge Data Analytics and Information Security solutions to National
Security agencies, today announced its empanelment with the National
e-Governance Division (NeGD) under the Government of India’s flagship Digital
India programme. Innefu Labs has been selected among only 6 agencies
shortlisted from over 80 applicants, marking a significant milestone in its
mission to drive large-scale AI innovation for governance.

As part of its broader
vision to strengthen digital governance, the National e-Governance Division
(NeGD) is advancing a structured approach to harness Artificial Intelligence
(AI) and Machine Learning (ML) across ministries and departments. The
initiative focuses on building a dedicated ecosystem to address AI-driven
problem statements through empanelled partners who can provide qualified AI/ML
manpower and support implementation across key domains such as natural language
processing, computer vision, predictive analytics, and generative AI. By enabling
standardized engagement models and transparent resource deployment, this effort
aims to create a national framework that accelerates AI adoption while ensuring
consistency, scalability, and efficiency across government projects.

As an empanelled partner,
Innefu Labs will contribute to building a future-ready AI enablement framework
aligned with national priorities. The company will support government entities
with highly skilled AI/ML professionals, including AI architects, data
scientists, ML engineers, and MLOps specialists, enabling faster deployment of
AI-driven solutions across critical domains.

&quot;Being empanelled
by NeGD is not just a business milestone, it&#039;s a recognition of fifteen years
of work building AI systems that operate in some of the most demanding and
sensitive environments in the country,” commented Tarun Wig, Co-founder and
CEO, Innefu Labs. “We have built intelligence fusion platforms for national
security agencies, predictive analytics systems for law enforcement, financial
fraud detection tools for tax authorities, and much more. This empanelment
tells us that the same rigour, the same commitment to security and
accountability, and the same belief in sovereign indigenous AI capability is
exactly what India&#039;s governance systems need as they scale their AI adoption.
We are honoured to contribute to that mission.&quot;

Founded in 2010, Innefu
Labs has built a track record of deploying AI at scale across some of India&#039;s
most critical institutions. Key deployments include the largest Intelligence
Fusion Centre in Southeast Asia, the National Terrorism Data Fusion and
Analysis Centre, OSINT and facial recognition platforms for various law
enforcement agencies, predictive policing infrastructure for the Ahmedabad Safe
City initiative, and advanced financial analytics tools for financial
intelligence agencies.

The NeGD empanelment
framework is designed to eliminate the friction of repeated, time-consuming
procurement processes for government agencies seeking AI solutions. Central
ministries, state governments, and PSUs can now access Innefu&#039;s AI capabilities
and manpower through a streamlined, pre-approved mechanism, either through NeGD
facilitation or directly at the standardised rates discovered under this
framework, accelerating deployment timelines while maintaining the security,
compliance, and responsible AI standards that government systems demand.

<title>This summer, PLAY gets an upgrade: The LEGO Playground returns for its fifth edition</title>
<link>https://en.newsbolt.in/this-summer-play-gets-an-upgrade-the-lego-playground-returns-for-its-fifth-edition</link>
<guid>https://en.newsbolt.in/this-summer-play-gets-an-upgrade-the-lego-playground-returns-for-its-fifth-edition</guid>
<description><![CDATA[  

MUMBAI,
INDIA, MAY 07, 2026 : This summer, playtime takes on a whole new
dimension, brick by brick. The fifth edition of the LEGO Playground is coming
to malls across Ahmedabad, Pune, Hyderabad, Lucknow, and Gurgaon, bringing
unique LEGO play experiences for children aged 5 to 14.

Built
around the idea that play unlocks something incredible within every child, the
LEGO Playground 2026 invites young explorers to journey through five distinct
skill-based zones, each championing a future-ready skill: Resilience,
Problem-Solving, Creativity, Curiosity, and Social Skills. 

Launching
in Ahmedabad for the first time ever, the event will kick off at Nexus Alpha
One Mall. The Playground will then travel to Mall of Millennium, Pune; Inorbit
Mall, Hyderabad; and Phoenix Palassio, Lucknow, before concluding its 2026 run
at Ambience Mall, Gurgaon. The multi-city event will run from 8th May to the
end of June.

Here
is a glimpse into the adventure that awaits: 

●     
Brick Balance: A
counterweight challenge invites children to balance a see-saw, putting their
focus, patience, and perseverance to the test.

●     
Brick Mix: A
“playful” test of problem-solving where the first cube reveals a mystery
challenge, and the second and third reveal two numbers. Children add them up to
find the minimum number of LEGO bricks they need to build their solution with.

●     
Brick Seek:
Armed with a Flash Card featuring a mystery animal, young participants must
hunt through discovery boxes to find the right pieces and assemble their
creature on the activity table.

●     
Brick Carousel:
Children get to design and build their own garden-themed creations and place
them proudly on a rotating carousel for the world to admire.

●     
Speed Build:
Participants team up to race against the clock, taking turns to build a shared
creation while aiming to clock the fastest time of the day. 

Every
challenge completed earns a Play Skills stamp in the Champion&#039;s Playbook. Once
all five are collected, children head to the centrepiece of the entire
Playground: the magnificent Tower of Play, where they assemble a
personalised LEGO minifigure that represents the champion they&#039;ve become, and
place it proudly at the tower&#039;s base as a testament to their journey.

Speaking
about the experience, Bhavana Mandon, Country Manager, The LEGO Group, India,
said “At The LEGO Group, we believe play is one
of the most powerful forces in helping children learn, grow, and discover who
they are. The LEGO Playground brings this belief to life at scale, creating a
space that is joyful, immersive, and purposeful. Every experience is designed to
go beyond just building with bricks, encouraging children to develop
resilience, creativity, and the ability to problem-solve and collaborate. And
it is these qualities, nurtured through play, that will shape the builders of
tomorrow.&quot;

As
a special bonus, families who purchase LEGO sets worth ₹3,000 and above at the
event location will receive an exclusive free gift, available only on-site. 

Tickets
are now available on BookMyShow! Don&#039;t miss the chance to watch your child
build their own story, brick by brick.

technology converts unsorted waste into Automotive-Grade Fuels

In a major step towards “Atmanirbhar Bharat

breakthrough converting unwashed, unsorted and difficult-to-recycle plastic
waste into automotive-grade fuels like diesel, petrol, kerosene and valuable
chemicals.

Today, plastic waste continues to pile up
in landfills and oceans while countries continue to heavily depend on imported
crude oil. This innovation offers a simple yet powerful idea: instead of
discarding plastic, convert it into energy – reducing air, water, land and
ocean pollution supporting energy independence.

This technology is developed by an Indian
Scientist and his team, supporting the vision of The Honourable Prime Minister
of India towards Atmanirbhar and Viksit Bharat 2047 (India@100) and
demonstrates how Bharat is now ready to solve global problems - from land
decontamination to tackling plastic islands and ocean pollution.

A Departure from Conventional Methods

At the core of HVPL’s solution is a
depolymerisation process. Unlike traditional methods like incineration or
catalytic pyrolysis, which rely on combustion and often release harmful
emissions, HVPL’s system operates as a closed-loop, pollution-free platform.

The technology achieves complete mass
balance, ensuring that every unit of plastic waste fed into the system is
converted into usable output. Remarkably, the process requires no catalysts and
generates no secondary waste streams, making it a &quot;clean&quot; alternative
to existing industrial recycling practices.

HVPL is not merely a waste management
solution, it is a company that converts plastic waste into automotive grade
fuels reducing India’s dependence on crude oil imports and contributing to the
national economy.

Solving the &#039;Unsorted&#039; Waste Problem

One of the biggest barriers to global
plastic recycling is the requirement for pre-segregated or homogeneous
feedstock. Most current technologies fail when faced with the dirty, mixed and
contaminated plastics found in municipal landfills. HVPL’s technology is
designed to solve this problem.

This company breaks this barrier by being
technology engineered specifically to handle heterogeneous waste streams. This
capability is particularly vital for developing economies like India, where
waste segregation at the source remains a logistical challenge. By processing
low-value and landfill-derived plastics, the technology transforms what was
once considered a liability into high-quality fuels, specialty chemicals and
hydrocarbon products.

The technology is advanced enough to
operate without burning plastic or any other material. It runs at room pressure
without any noise, without releasing any harmful emissions and without wasting
any water during the process—ensuring a clean, controlled and
environment-friendly processing of plastic.

Scalability and Energy Efficiency

The system’s modular design allows flexible
deployment ranging from small decentralized units in rural and urban areas of
India to large-scale industrial facilities globally. Moreover, the process is
&quot;energy-positive&quot; meaning the energy produced from the resulting
outputs significantly exceeds the energy required to run the operation.

KEY HIGHLIGHTS OF HVPL


 Patented Thermal Depolymerisation:
     Zero-combustion, catalyst-free process.
 Versatile Feedstock: Handles
     unsorted and contaminated mixed plastics.
 Energy Positive: Output energy
     exceeds operational input.
 Circular Economy: Converts waste
     into fuels and industrial chemicals, achieving a 100% mass balance.


The company has commenced its commercial
operations and in a short span, established a global footprint by obtaining a
license from the Australian Government to operate 150 TPD facility. By bridging
the gap between indigenous innovation and sustainable development goals, HVPL
is setting a new standard for how technology can foster a climate‑positive
future while simultaneously driving economic growth.

<title>A Multi&#45;Domain Leader Steps into the Sporting Arena: Tapan Acharya and the Rise of Rowing in India</title>
<link>https://en.newsbolt.in/a-multi-domain-leader-steps-into-the-sporting-arena-tapan-acharya-and-the-rise-of-rowing-in-india</link>
<guid>https://en.newsbolt.in/a-multi-domain-leader-steps-into-the-sporting-arena-tapan-acharya-and-the-rise-of-rowing-in-india</guid>
<description><![CDATA[ New Delhi : In an increasingly specialized professional world, Tapan
Acharya presents a contrasting narrative—one that moves across industries
with calculated balance. Recognized as one of the influential personalities
in Goa, he has built a career spanning filmmaking, real estate,
hospitality, and animation &amp; VFX. His journey reflects how influential
personalities in Goa are shaping multiple industries with vision and
leadership.

 

With a profile that combines creative insight with
entrepreneurial execution, Tapan Acharya has steadily emerged as a
prominent personality in Goa. His work has largely focused on developing
platforms—whether in business or creative ecosystems—while maintaining a strong
connection with grassroots engagement. This consistent presence has also earned
him recognition among the prominent personalities in films and business
circles.

 

In recent years, this multi-industry experience has extended
into the sporting domain, where Tapan Acharya has taken on a key
administrative role in rowing. His entry into sports has strengthened his
reputation as a prominent personality in sports, bringing fresh
perspective and practical leadership into a developing discipline.

 

Understanding Rowing: A Sport Finding Its Space in India

 

Rowing, one of the oldest Olympic sports, is centered on
strength, endurance, and synchronized team effort. Traditionally practiced on
rivers and lakes, the sport has evolved globally with the introduction of
coastal formats such as Beach Sprint Rowing—shorter, faster races designed to
suit modern audiences and challenging water conditions.

 

In India, rowing has historically remained limited in
visibility compared to mainstream sports. However, the landscape is gradually
changing. With increasing institutional support, improved infrastructure, and
exposure to international formats, the sport is beginning to attract attention
among young athletes. Coastal states, in particular, offer natural advantages
for the expansion of rowing, especially in its newer formats.

 

Despite this potential, challenges remain—ranging from
limited awareness and training facilities to the need for structured grassroots
programs. It is within this evolving environment that leaders like Tapan
Acharya are stepping forward. As one of the influential personalities in
Goa, his focus on opportunity creation is being closely observed.

 

From Election to Execution: Tapan Acharya’s Role in Rowing

 

Tapan Acharya’s entry
into rowing administration came through his election as President of the Rowing
&amp; Sculling Association of Goa. His involvement marked a shift towards
integrating planning, infrastructure, and outreach in the state’s rowing
ecosystem. His appointment further highlighted him as a prominent
personality in sports with a clear development-driven approach.

 

One of the key developments during his tenure has been
the hosting of India’s first Beach Sprint National Rowing Championship in Goa.
The event introduced athletes and audiences to a globally recognized coastal
format while demonstrating the feasibility of organizing such competitions
along India’s coastline. This achievement added another milestone to the
journey of Tapan Acharya, already known among prominent personalities
in Goa.

 

His approach has largely been practical—focusing on utilizing
existing natural resources like Goa’s beaches, aligning with national and
international sporting formats, and encouraging local participation. Observers
note that the emphasis has been on creating entry points for young athletes,
rather than limiting the sport to elite competition. Such initiatives continue
to strengthen his image as a prominent personality in sports.

 

At the same time, Tapan Acharya continues to remain
active in his other professional sectors. His experience in filmmaking and animation
contributes to how the sport is presented and communicated, while his
background in real estate and hospitality aligns with logistical and
infrastructure needs. This overlap of skills has influenced a more integrated
approach to sports administration. It is also why many consider him among the prominent
personalities in films who successfully diversified into public leadership.

 

A Journey Shaped by Diverse Foundations

 

The trajectory of Tapan Acharya’s career reflects a
gradual and layered progression. Beginning in filmmaking, he developed a
foundation in storytelling and creative collaboration. This phase later
expanded into animation and VFX, aligning with the technological evolution of
content creation. These accomplishments placed him among the prominent
personalities in films who embraced innovation early.

 

Parallel to his creative pursuits, he established
himself in real estate and hospitality—sectors that demanded operational
discipline and long-term planning. These experiences contributed to a broader
understanding of infrastructure, management, and regional development. Such
versatility is why Tapan Acharya is frequently regarded as one of the influential
personalities in Goa.

 

His transition into sports administration, particularly
rowing, can be seen as an extension of this journey—where earlier experiences
in building systems and engaging communities are now applied to a developing
sport. Today, his growing role continues to define him as a prominent
personality in sports with long-term vision.

 

As rowing continues to find its footing in India, the
involvement of professionals from diverse backgrounds adds a new dimension to
its growth. Tapan Acharya, counted among the prominent personalities
in Goa, reflects this intersection—where varied experiences converge to
shape emerging opportunities in the country’s sporting landscape. ]]></description>

<title>Koosia launches in India to bring function&#45;first luxury to modern handbags</title>
<link>https://en.newsbolt.in/koosia-launches-in-india-to-bring-function-first-luxury-to-modern-handbags</link>
<guid>https://en.newsbolt.in/koosia-launches-in-india-to-bring-function-first-luxury-to-modern-handbags</guid>
<description><![CDATA[ Mumbai, India:
The Indian handbag market has no shortage of options. What it lacks is honesty.Most handbags are built
to look good for a moment, not to support a woman through her day. They
prioritise trends over function, logos over usefulness, and aesthetics over the
realities of modern life. Koosia,
a new Indian direct-to-consumer handbag brand, is launching to challenge that
norm head-on. It positions itself in a largely ignored middle space accessible
luxury handbags designed around real life, not runway fantasy.

Founded by Ekta Agarwal
and Priyanka, Koosia is built on a clear motive: to design handbags that work
as hard as the women who carry them.

“Women don’t live
single-moment lives,” says co-founder Ekta Agarwal. “We move between roles
constantly, work, travel, family, personal time, and yet handbags are designed
as if we exist in one scene at a time. That disconnect is what we wanted to
address.”

The idea for Koosia
came from lived experience rather than trend forecasting. Ekta grew up seeing
how one dependable handbag could quietly support a woman through daily life. As
she moved through different phases herself, she noticed the same reliance
remain, what mattered was not decoration, but certainty.

Priyanka reached the
same understanding through exposure to different cultures. Having lived and
studied across Europe and travelled extensively, she observed how women
everywhere chose bags based on purpose rather than popularity. A moment during
international travel, when she realised she had left her handbag behind, reinforced
how deeply women rely on their bags as personal systems of readiness.

That shared
understanding became Koosia’s foundation.

Koosia designs handbags
around this belief. Each piece is created to function as a structured,
dependable companion, balancing form, space, and flexibility, so women don’t
have to constantly switch bags or compromise between style and usability. The
brand uses vegan leather and focuses on durability, intuitive organisation, and
calm, understated design.

In a market where many
“branded” handbags rely heavily on borrowed icons, Koosia takes a different
approach. Every bag is originally designed from the ground up, with careful
attention to silhouette, proportions, detailing, and everyday usability, moving
away from copy culture and closer to true design culture.

“We’re not chasing
trends or building ‘occasion bags,’” the founders explain. “We’re building
everyday tools that quietly support women through complex, layered lives.”

This philosophy extends
to pricing as well. Koosia avoids inflated brand markups, focusing instead on
high-quality materials, strong fittings, premium finishes, and thoughtful
construction, offering value rooted in substance rather than hype.

The brand also follows
limited, controlled production runs, prioritising design integrity and
uniqueness over mass production. By keeping quantities intentional, Koosia
ensures its designs do not feel common, while maintaining consistency and
quality across every piece.

In a market dominated
by fast fashion on one end and aspirational luxury on the other, Koosia
positions itself deliberately in between, accessible luxury with intent. The
brand also aims to shift how Indian handbag brands are perceived globally: not
as imitators, but as original, design-led, purpose-driven creators.

While Koosia currently
works with global manufacturing partners to meet strict quality benchmarks, its
long-term vision includes building design-led manufacturing capabilities in
India, without compromising on quality.

Looking ahead, the
brand is exploring how technology can quietly enhance everyday handbags,
through features that improve security and traceability, while keeping design
simple and intentional.

Koosia is now available
online, marking the start of a brand that believes women deserve products that
understand them, not just decorate them.

About
Koosia

Founded in 2025, Koosia is an Indian direct-to-consumer handbag brand
founded by Ekta Agarwal and Priyanka. Built on a women-to-women philosophy, the
brand designs vegan leather handbags that prioritise functionality, original
design, and emotional relevance. Koosia focuses on limited production and
honest pricing, creating handbags designed to support women across different
phases of life. ]]></description>

<title>Surprise Visit! Gujarat Titans Stars Drop in on HCG Cancer Survivors to Honor Their Fight</title>

<description><![CDATA[  Champions on the
field, supporters at heart. Standing together with cancer patients at HCG -
because every moment of encouragement counts.

Ahmedabad, India | 7th May,
2026 : In the middle of the high-intensity,
players from the Gujarat Titans took a meaningful pause from the field to
engage in a different kind of battle—the fight against cancer.

In a unique collaboration with HealthCare
Global Enterprises Ltd. (HCG), India’s largest dedicated cancer care network,
members of the franchise surprised patients and long-term survivors at HCG
Aastha Cancer Centre, Ahmedabad. What began as a routine day of treatment
transformed into an uplifting experience, as players spent time listening to
patient journeys, sharing conversations, and offering encouragement.

Moving beyond traditional meet-and-greet
formats, the interaction focused on genuine human connection—bringing moments
of normalcy, joy, and inspiration to individuals navigating physically and
emotionally demanding cancer treatments.

“Medicine treats the disease, but
moments like these help heal the spirit,” said Dr. Manish Mattoo, Executive
Director &amp; CEO, Healthcare Global Enterprises, Ltd. “The presence of the Gujarat Titans created a sense of
collective encouragement. It reinforces an important truth in oncology that
recovery is not just clinical, but deeply emotional. At HCG, we are committed
to building an ecosystem where care extends beyond treatment into support,
resilience, and human connection.”

The visit is part of HCG’s broader approach
to cancer care, which integrates clinical excellence with emotional and
psychological well-being—an area gaining increasing recognition globally as a
critical component of patient outcomes.

For many patients, particularly younger
individuals, the interaction offered a rare break from the clinical environment
allowing them to reconnect with a sense of normalcy and optimism.

“You can visibly see the shift in
patients when they experience unexpected moments of joy,” said Dr. Bharat
Gadhavi, Regional Director, HCG Hospitals Gujarat &amp; Rajasthan. “Cancer treatment can be exhausting, both mentally and physically.
Interactions like these especially with figures they admire help ease anxiety
and build renewed strength alongside medical care.”

Executing such an initiative within an
active oncology environment requires careful coordination and sensitivity.

“This was not just a visit it was a
thoughtfully planned experience,” said Sudarshan Bhamare, Chief Operating
Officer, HCG Aastha Cancer Centre, Ahmedabad. “The
Gujarat Titans players were extremely mindful and empathetic in their
interactions. The focus was always on the patients, their comfort, and their
journey.”

As healthcare continues to evolve, such
collaborations signal a broader shift—where institutions and communities come
together to address not just the disease, but the human experience of healing.

HCG Aastha Cancer Centre, Ahmedabad

<title>&amp;apos;Running Is Not Just a Sport — It Is the Most Honest Conversation You Will Ever Have With Yourself&amp;apos;</title>

<description><![CDATA[ Sufiya Sufi Runner
recently broke her own Guinness World Record on the Manali–Leh route. On May
12, she begins her most ambitious undertaking yet — 5,000 km from Kanyakumari
to Karakoram Pass, a tribute to the Indian Armed Forces. We sat down with her
to understand what running really is, and what it demands of the person who
stays with it long enough.

Everyone
starts running for the same reason: fitness, weight loss, a doctor&#039;s advice.
Where did it begin for you, and where did it take you?

For me, it all began
with frustration.

I
was stuck in a robotic airport routine, living the same day again and again,
searching for a way out. I didn’t start running with big dreams—I just started
with 3 km in a park, looking for a little fitness and a little peace.

But
something changed.

Running
became my form of meditation. With every step, I could feel a shift within
myself—mentally, emotionally, physically. I kept showing up every day, not
knowing where it would lead.

And somewhere along the way, it stopped being
just a habit. It became my passion.

It
became my purpose.

It took me to heights I never imagined—into
the world of ultra running. And I never stopped.

You&#039;ve described
running as the most honest conversation you&#039;ll ever have with yourself. What
does that mean?

When I started, I
wasn’t chasing distance or records—I was searching for a purpose. I needed
something that could bring me peace, especially mentally.

And
running gave me that.

With every step, there are no distractions, no
noise—just me and my thoughts. It feels like meditation in motion, where I
connect with myself on a deeper level.

Out
there, I can’t hide. I face my doubts, my fears, my strength—everything. And in
that silence, I find clarity.

India&#039;s top CEOs and
founders are increasingly turning to running. Why do you think

that is?

And
I think there’s a simple reason behind it.

Running
is one of the purest sports—there’s no dependency, no complex setup. You don’t
need a team, a ground, or special resources. It’s just you, your running shoes,
and the open road.

For
people leading intense professional lives, every day can become a fixed
routine—meetings, decisions, pressure. Running gives that space.

It
clears your mind, brings you back to yourself, and creates a sense of freedom
that’s hard to find anywhere else. Out there, titles don’t matter—everyone is
just a runner.

And
the most beautiful part is this: once you truly start enjoying every step, every
breath, every moment—you don’t want to stop.

It stops being just
exercise. It becomes a part of who you are.

You often say the
fitness fades, but the resilience doesn&#039;t. Can you explain that?

For
me, “fitness fades, but resilience doesn’t” comes from everything I have lived
through on the road.

Fitness
is temporary. It goes up and down—injuries happen, fatigue builds, the body has
limits. There are days when the pace drops, when the legs feel heavy, when the
body simply doesn’t respond.

But
resilience is different.

Resilience
is what makes me show up again the next day. It’s what keeps me moving when I
am already exhausted, when conditions are harsh, when nothing feels easy. It’s
built through every early morning, every long kilometre, every moment where quitting
feels like an option—but she chooses to continue.

In
my journey—from starting with just 3 km runs to taking on extreme endurance
challenges across countries—fitness helped me begin.

But
resilience is what kept me going.

Because at the highest level of endurance,
it’s never just about how strong your body is. It’s about how strong your mind
becomes when your body starts to give up.

And
that strength doesn’t fade.

On May 12, you begin a
5,000 km run from Kanyakumari to Karakoram — the first civilian to attempt this
route. Is this about a sixth Guinness World Record?

It has always been my
dream to run on the Karakoram. And now, I finally have the opportunity to turn
that dream into reality through this 5000 km journey from Kanyakumari to
Karakoram.

Yes,
this attempt is also for my sixth Guinness World Record—but for me, it’s more
than just a record.

Every
time I take on a high-altitude challenge, it’s my way of paying tribute to the
Indian Armed Forces. What we call an “adventure,” they live every single day in
the harshest conditions, at extreme altitudes, far away from their families.

We
can run for passion. They stand there for the nation. Through this run, I carry
both my dream and my respect.

This
journey is not just about breaking records, it’s about running with purpose,
pride, and gratitude for the country.

You will be the first
Indian to touch Karakoram . What does that mean to you?

Starting
from Kanyakumari and finishing at the Karakoram - it gives me goosebumps every
time I think about it.

From
the southern edge of India to one of the highest, toughest points in the
country… it’s not just a run, it’s a complete journey across extremes.

By
the time I reach Karakoram, I know my body will be completely drained. I can’t
even imagine the level of exhaustion—but this will be the first time I finish a
run at 18,000 feet, in the lap of the Karakoram range.

That
thought alone fascinates me.

It’s
not just about reaching the destination. It’s about what it represents.

Running
across the entire country, pushing beyond limits, and finishing where very few
can even stand—it’s a matter of pride.

Running
for the country. Running for a dream.

What is the one thing
you want every Indian to take away from this run?

If
there’s one thing I want every Indian to take away from this run, it’s
this—step out of your own limits.

We
all live inside boundaries we create in our minds. But the moment you break
that shell, everything changes.

With
a positive mindset, hard work, self-belief, and unbreakable faith, you can
reach heights you never even imagined.

That’s
exactly what happened with me. I just kept believing, kept showing up, and kept
breaking my own limits.

And
beyond personal success, I want people to feel pride in our country.

Because
serving the nation isn’t only about wearing a uniform - it’s also about being a
responsible, strong, and positive citizen.

If
we all grow, we all rise—together as a nation.

Last question — what do
you want someone who just started running to know?

To
anyone who has just started running, I’d say this - Start slow and build
gradually. There’s no rush.

Run
for yourself, not for anyone else. Keep a positive mindset and allow the
process to unfold.

Running
has a way of giving you peace, clarity, and relief—if you stay consistent.
Trust the process. Be patient with yourself.

And
most importantly, enjoy every single step of the journey. Because that’s where
the real magic is.

Sufiya
extends her gratitude to College Mentor in association with Bharath University,
Health Partner Sri Lakshmi Narayana Institute of Medical Sciences(SLIMS) and
every sponsor who believed in this journey and in the idea that an individual
run can become a national movement.

Run
for Dreams begins May 12 from Kanyakumari, passes through
11 states and every war memorial on the route, and concludes at Karakoram Pass
on August 6. She arrives at Kargil War Memorial on Kargil Vijay Diwas, July 26.

<title>Demand for Virtual CFO Services Surges Among Indian SMEs, Startups, and E&#45;Commerce Businesses as Financial Complexity Grows</title>
<link>https://en.newsbolt.in/demand-for-virtual-cfo-services-surges-among-indian-smes-startups-and-e-commerce-businesses-as-financial-complexity-grows</link>
<guid>https://en.newsbolt.in/demand-for-virtual-cfo-services-surges-among-indian-smes-startups-and-e-commerce-businesses-as-financial-complexity-grows</guid>
<description><![CDATA[ Noida,
India, May 07, 2026 : Lekhakar, a Noida-based accounting and
financial advisory firm, today highlighted a sharp and sustained rise in demand
for Virtual CFO (Chief Financial Officer) services across India’s SME, startup,
and e-commerce segments. The firm, which has provided Virtual CFO services to
growing businesses across India, reports a 55% year-on-year increase in
enquiries for the service, a trend it attributes to the growing financial
complexity facing businesses that have outgrown basic bookkeeping but cannot
yet justify a full-time CFO.

A Virtual
CFO provides businesses with access to senior-level financial strategy, cash
flow planning, investor reporting, compliance oversight, and MIS reporting, on
a part-time or retainer basis. For a fraction of the cost of a full-time CFO
(typically ₹18-25 lakh per annum), businesses can access comparable expertise,
making the model particularly attractive to companies with annual turnover
between ₹1 crore and ₹50 crore.

Why Demand Is Growing

Several
converging factors are driving the rapid adoption of Virtual CFO services
across India:

• 
Startup funding pressure: Investors
and lenders now require structured financial reporting, cash flow forecasts,
and audit-ready books before committing capital, standards that most
early-stage teams cannot meet without external financial leadership.

•  GST
and compliance complexity: With over 13 GST
return types, mandatory e-invoicing, and TDS reforms introduced in the Union
Budget 2025-26, SMEs face a compliance burden that goes well beyond what a traditional
accountant handles.

• 
E-commerce growth: Online sellers
managing multi-platform revenue, marketplace TDS deductions, and inventory
reconciliation require structured financial oversight that basic bookkeeping
cannot provide.

• 
Scaling without overhiring: Mid-sized
companies growing their teams and entering new markets need financial modelling
and working capital management, but are not yet ready for the fixed cost of a
full-time senior hire.

•  Bank
credit access: Lenders increasingly demand 12–24 months of
clean MIS reports and projected financials. Businesses without organised
financial systems are routinely denied credit, regardless of their actual
performance.

 

Founder’s Perspective

“The businesses coming to us for Virtual CFO services are not
struggling; they’re growing,” said Mr Ankit, Founder of Lekhakar. “A startup
preparing for its Series A needs the same quality of financial reporting as a
listed company. An e-commerce business managing ₹5 crore in annual sales needs
cash flow visibility and working capital planning. These are CFO-level
problems, and our Virtual CFO service gives businesses access to that expertise
at a cost that actually makes sense for their stage.”

What Lekhakar’s Virtual CFO
Service Covers

Lekhakar’s
Virtual CFO engagement is structured around six pillars:

• 
Financial Planning &amp; Analysis (FP&amp;A): Monthly MIS reports, budget vs. actuals, and financial forecasting.

•  Cash
Flow Management: 13-week rolling cash flow forecasts, working
capital optimisation, and debtor management.

• 
Investor &amp; Lender Reporting:
Pitch-deck financials, due diligence support, CMA data for bank loans, and
projected P&amp;L.

• 
Compliance Oversight: GST, TDS, ROC
filings, and statutory audit coordination managed end-to-end.

•  Cost
&amp; Margin Analysis: Unit economics, product/channel
profitability, and cost reduction identification.

• 
Strategic Advisory: Business plan review,
pricing strategy, and financial scenario modelling for key decisions.

 

A Growing Market Opportunity

India has
an estimated 63 million MSMEs, of which fewer than 5% employ a dedicated
finance professional at the management level, according to industry estimates.
With the government’s push toward formalisation, digital taxation, and
credit-linked subsidy schemes, the need for structured financial management is
no longer optional; it is a prerequisite for growth. The Virtual CFO model
addresses this gap directly, offering scalable, affordable access to financial
expertise that was previously available only to large enterprises.

Lekhakar’s Virtual CFO service is
available immediately to businesses across India on a monthly retainer.
Engagements are customised based on business size, sector, and reporting
requirements. To schedule a complimentary discovery call, visit www.lekhakar.in or contact +91 8800445497.

<title>Roundtable on Impact of Paraquat on Public Health in India</title>
<link>https://en.newsbolt.in/roundtable-on-impact-of-paraquat-on-public-health-in-india</link>
<guid>https://en.newsbolt.in/roundtable-on-impact-of-paraquat-on-public-health-in-india</guid>
<description><![CDATA[ May
7, 2026, New Delhi : A high-level roundtable on the “Impact of
Paraquat on Public Health in India” convened on 6th of May at the India
Habitat Centre, bringing together Members of Parliament, policymakers, public
health experts, clinicians, agricultural specialists, and civil society
representatives to deliberate on the urgent need for action on one of the most
hazardous herbicides still in use in the country.

Organised
by ETI Services in collaboration with The University of Edinburgh, the
convening focused on aligning evidence, policy, and on-ground realities to
address the significant public health risks associated with paraquat.

In
her opening remarks, Dr. Sukriti Chauhan, CEO, ETI Services, underscored the
human and systemic dimensions of the issue, stating, “Public health is
ultimately a question of justice; of whose lives are protected and whose risks
are overlooked. Paraquat poisoning is not just a clinical issue; it has deep
social consequences for rural families, pushing households into cycles of
distress. Addressing this requires alignment across different sectors and
collaborative action that is grounded in both evidence and lived realities.”

Dr.
Dalbir Singh, a renowned senior policymaker, President of the Global Coalition
Against TB and President, Policymakers Forum for Mental Health said, “The issue
of Paraquat sits at the intersection of agricultural policy, public health and
suicide prevention in view of its high toxicity and rampant accessibility
resulting in agonizing deaths. It is therefore time to evolve a data-driven
strategy to invest in safer alternatives.”

Shri
Rapolu Ananda Bhaskar, Honourable Former Member of Parliament, Rajya Sabha
highlighted the need for taking the issue from states like Telangana to the
Centre.  “As we achieved the Endosulfan
ban in 2011” he noted, “now we can achieve a ban of Paraquat Herbicide.
Paraquat exposure is fatal and the Parliament and Government have started
responding to the issue. Farmers’ leaders, scientists, doctors and activists,
with ETI’ initiative, shall deepen the understanding of the need for removing
the manufacture of paraquat, taking its toxicity and immediate and long-term
impact into consideration. Platforms like Amazon have removed the sale of
Paraquat, likewise, the Union Government must also impose a ban on the paraquat
herbicide.” 

Bringing
a global and policy perspective forward, Bhawesh Jha, Project and Policy
Officer, The University of Edinburgh highlighted emerging regulatory trends:
“Paraquat stands out as one of the most lethal pesticides in use today, with no
effective antidote. Encouragingly, steps taken by states like Odisha and
Telangana, including moves towards restricting or banning its use, point in the
right direction. Evidence from India and globally shows that limiting access to
highly hazardous pesticides can significantly reduce preventable deaths without
harming agriculture.”

Speakers
also highlighted the scale of the problem and the feasibility of transitioning
away from paraquat without compromising agricultural productivity. Dr. G.V.
Ramanjaneyulu, Executive Director, Centre for Sustainable Agriculture,
emphasised that, “India can phase out paraquat without affecting agricultural
production by strengthening integrated weed management practices that Indian
farmers have traditionally used, including inter-cultivation, mulching, cover
crops, crop rotation, and mechanical weeding. Several states and farming
communities across India are already successfully reducing dependence on
hazardous herbicides through ecological and low-cost alternatives. Continued
reliance on paraquat poses serious risks to farm workers, rural families, and
public health, while safer and practical weed management options are readily
available for Indian agriculture. A phased national ban, combined with farmer
support, custom hiring centres, and extension services, can protect both
agricultural productivity and the health of farming communities.”

Bringing
in clinical evidence, Prof. Peter Victor John, Senior Professor at the
Department of Medicine/Critical Care, Christian Medical College, Vellore, noted
the severity of paraquat poisoning outcomes: “In this era of innovative
agriculture, an old herbicide, paraquat, is resulting in countless deaths due
to deliberate or accidental ingestion. In the absence of an antidote and with
death rates of over 75% in paraquat poisoning despite appropriate medical care,
it is time to consider the ban of this compound in India and replace it with
safer alternatives. This would result in lives saved without the loss of crop
productivity.”

Dr.
Mahesh Reddy Marri from the Association of Doctors Against Paraquat stressed the
urgency of regulatory action, stating: “Paraquat must be banned. It is a highly
toxic poison with no antidote, and far too often, exposure, whether accidental
or intentional, which result in death. Allowing its continued use, despite the
existence of safer alternatives, is an avoidable risk that no public health
system should accept. It’s time for us to take collective action.”

Dr.
Shankar Ramchandani, Assistant Professor, VIMSAR Odisha and Founder, One-Rupee
Clinic emphasised “As there is no antidote to paraquat, and the fatality is
high, putting a ban is the only solution. Human lives are much more precious
than business, and today’s platform offers a splendid combination of doctors,
agriculturists, law makers, and farmers for advocacy to ban paraquat in India.”


Discussions
throughout the roundtable emphasised the need for a phased national ban on
paraquat, supported by farmer-centric transition strategies, strengthened
surveillance systems, and integrated policy action across agriculture and
health sectors. ]]></description>

<title>Hackers are using AI to build fake SBI, IRCTC and Zepto sites in under 5 minutes. Here is the AI fighting back</title>
<link>https://en.newsbolt.in/hackers-are-using-ai-to-build-fake-sbi-irctc-and-zepto-sites-in-under-5-minutes-here-is-the-ai-fighting-back</link>

<description><![CDATA[   India lost Rs. 22,812 crore to cybercrime in 2024. Behind more than 8 out of
every 10 phishing attacks was artificial intelligence. The threat is real. The
good news is that AI can fight back.

By
CyberCheck360 Research Team | May 2025 : India&#039;s cybercrime reporting portal
received 19.18 lakh complaints in 2024. Total financial losses crossed Rs.
22,812 crore, nearly three times the Rs. 7,496 crore lost in 2023. These are
not abstract statistics. They come from ordinary people across India who
clicked a link that looked completely legitimate.

What
changed so dramatically in one year? One word: AI.

According
to the State of AI-Powered Cybercrime Report 2025 by GIREM and Tekion, 82.6% of
phishing content targeting Indians last year was generated using machine
learning. These sites are not obviously fake. They carry perfect grammar,
pixel-perfect design and logos that match the real thing exactly. Even security
professionals struggle to tell the difference.

WHY
YOUR ANTIVIRUS CANNOT SAVE YOU ANYMORE

Most
security tools, including antivirus software and browser warnings, rely on
databases of known bad sites. But scammers now create a site, run their fraud
for a few hours and delete it before any database has recorded it. This is what
cybersecurity professionals call a zero-day phishing threat. Brand new. Unknown
to every database. And invisible to every reputation check.

Research
from Palo Alto Networks Unit 42 shows that over 70% of newly registered domains
are malicious or suspicious, roughly 10 times higher than established domains.
Critically, 41% of phishing domains are weaponised within just 14 days of
registration. The window between a domain going live and active fraud has
collapsed to hours.

Menlo
Security&#039;s State of Browser Security Report, published in March 2025,
documented a 140% increase in browser-based phishing attacks in 2024, along
with a 130% year-on-year rise in zero-hour phishing attacks specifically.
SlashNext tracked a 1,265% surge in malicious phishing emails in the year
following the public launch of ChatGPT in late 2022. Researchers at IIT Jammu
confirmed in 2025 that even users with no technical background can now run
complete phishing campaigns using freely available AI tools.

The
barrier to cybercrime has not just lowered. It has nearly disappeared.

THE
BRANDS SCAMMERS COPY MOST IN INDIA

Fraudsters are not
random. They target platforms Indians trust most for money and personal data.

Fake
SBI and major bank portals are used to harvest login credentials and OTPs. An
RTI disclosure revealed nearly 16,000 cyber fraud incidents at SBI alone
between January 2024 and October 2025. Fake IRCTC booking pages are timed deliberately
to tatkal rushes and peak travel seasons. Fake UPI payment portals redirected
Rs. 2,100 crore in fraud in 2024. Fake government portals impersonating
Aadhaar, PAN and income tax services are used to steal identity documents.

The
timing of these attacks is deliberate. During a sale, a tatkal rush or an IPO
announcement, people move quickly. Scammers count on exactly that.

THREE
LAYERS OF PROTECTION, THE LAST ONE BEING AI

CyberCheck360
Link Inspector is a free browser extension built specifically for this threat.
It applies three layers of protection to every link clicked, silently and in
real time.

The
first layer checks every link against global databases of known phishing and
malicious URLs at the moment of clicking. The second layer checks the domain&#039;s
age, registration details and patterns that are common to fraudulent
infrastructure, flagging sites that were registered days or hours ago. The
third and final layer uses AI to analyse the actual live page in real time,
looking for phishing behaviour that no database has ever recorded. This is the
layer that catches zero-day threats, sites that are hours old and completely
invisible to every other security tool.

No
single tool is enough. Each layer catches what the others miss. Together they
protect against the full range of threats targeting Indian users today. 

When
the extension identifies a site as malicious, it blocks access immediately
before any personal or financial information can be entered. The site shown in
this example was just 2 days old at the time of blocking. No antivirus, no
Google Safe Browsing alert and no reputation blacklist had recorded it. Domain
intelligence and AI together caught what everything else missed.

When
the extension detects a newly registered domain showing phishing signals, it
raises a clear warning in plain language, showing the domain age, the flagged
URL and the reason for the alert. The user can choose to go back safely without
interacting with the page at all. No technical knowledge is required to
understand the warning.

INSTALL
IN 30 SECONDS. COMPLETELY FREE.

You
cannot always spot a fake site yourself. These sites are built by professionals
whose full-time job is to fool you. The only reliable protection is a tool that
checks every link before you act on it.

CyberCheck360
Link Inspector takes 30 seconds to install and works silently in the
background. There is no account required and no personal data collected. It
checks every site visited using reputation checking, domain intelligence and
AI, and raises an alert before any damage is done.

The
extension is available free at: https://cybercheck360.com/products/browser-extension/


About
CyberCheck360

CyberCheck360 helps organisations protect their employees from
phishing attacks. If your team receives emails and clicks on links every day,
CyberCheck360&#039;s Email Click Protection ensures every single click is checked
and dangerous links are blocked before any damage is done. No technical setup
needed for employees. No change to how they work. Just silent protection on
every click, across the entire organisation.

<title>Acculink CPAs Marks Five Years of Zero Data Breaches: Setting the Standard for Outsourced Accounting Services</title>
<link>https://en.newsbolt.in/acculink-cpas-marks-five-years-of-zero-data-breaches-setting-the-standard-for-outsourced-accounting-services</link>
<guid>https://en.newsbolt.in/acculink-cpas-marks-five-years-of-zero-data-breaches-setting-the-standard-for-outsourced-accounting-services</guid>
<description><![CDATA[ ALBUQUERQUE,
NM : Five years ago, Acculink CPAs was built on a simple
but demanding promise: that offshore accounting staffing could be secure,
compliant, and genuinely useful to U.S. CPA &amp; Accounting firms without the
usual headaches. Five years and zero data breaches later, that promise has held.

For U.S. CPA, EA, and
accounting firms navigating a real talent shortage and rising operational
costs, finding outsourced accounting services that are genuinely secure and
scalable has been harder than it should be. Acculink CPAs, headquartered in New
Mexico with a delivery center in India, was built specifically to change that.

Five Years. Zero
Breaches. Full Compliance.

Security
in offshore accounting is not just about having the right certifications
on paper. It is about what happens on the floor every single day. Acculink
holds full ISO 27001, SOC 2, GDPR, and IRS Section 7216 compliance - and behind
those certifications sits a dedicated internal IT security team whose only
responsibility is protecting client data at every stage of delivery.

The controls are
physical as much as they are digital. No phones or personal devices are
permitted on the delivery floor. All staff submit personal devices before
entering. CCTV surveillance runs across all work areas at all times. USB drives
and external storage are strictly prohibited. No data leaves the building on
paper or device - period.

IRS Section 7216 -
which governs how tax return information can be shared in offshore engagements
- remains the number one legal concern for CPA firms considering offshore
staffing. Acculink&#039;s engagement workflows are built around 7216-compliant
consent processes from the very first interaction, removing this barrier before
it becomes a problem.

Five years. Zero breaches.
Every CPA firm should be asking their offshore partner if they can say the
same.

Here is what five years
of focused execution looks like at Acculink:

●       
300+ accounting professionals across
accounting, tax, and bookkeeping

●       
63% of talent are from Big Four and top-20
U.S. accounting firm backgrounds

●       
100+ CPA firms, accounting practices, and
businesses currently served

●       
45% reduction in time-to-close and turnaround
time reported by client firms

●       
Zero data breaches across five years of
operation

●       
Full ISO 27001, SOC 2, GDPR, and IRS Section
7216 compliance

The
Right Talent, Ready From Day One

Staffing
is only as good as the people behind it. Acculink
gives CPA firms access to professionals across accounting, tax,
audit and bookkeeping at every experience
level -- each one already trained on the tools U.S. firms rely on daily: QuickBooks, Xero, CCH Axcess, UltraTax, ProConnect, Lacerte,
Drake, Karbon, TaxDome, and more.

There are no training
cycles.. Every professional integrates into the firm&#039;s existing workflow from
day one - plug-and-play. Firms get the capacity they need without absorbing
quality risk at any level.

&quot;Our clients are
not signing up for a trial run,&quot; said Agam Shah, Operational Head at
Acculink CPAs. &quot;They get certified, secure professionals who fit in
from day one - and feel the difference within two weeks.&quot;

More
Than Staffing

Amanda Williams,
Managing Partner at a New York-based CPA firm,
put it simply: &quot;We came for staffing help. What we got was a business
partner. Our turnaround time dropped by 45% after Acculink helped us
restructure our workflows and bring in automation where we needed it
most.&quot;

Every Acculink
engagement includes alongside staffing:

●       
SOP development tailored to the firm&#039;s
existing processes

●       
Workflow automation to reduce manual effort
and review cycles

●       
AI integration advisory to increase throughput
without increasing headcount.

<description><![CDATA[ May
6, 2026 : Binance today announced the launch of
“Withdraw Protection,” a new user-centric security feature that gives users
greater control over the safety of their digital assets. As part of Binance’s
ongoing commitment to proactive user protection and education, the new feature
adds an extra layer of account security that users can activate at any time.

Withdraw
Protection enables users to place a temporary lock of their digital assets,
preventing on-chain withdrawals for a user-defined period of one to seven days.
During this time, assets cannot be withdrawn from the exchange, helping users
add an extra layer of control when they want to exercise extra caution. Users
can also choose whether early unlocking is permitted, and if so, both an
authenticator app and a security key must be enabled, while email confirmation
and phone/SMS authentication can be added as optional verification methods.

For
users who prefer maximum certainty, Withdraw Protection offers a strict
lockdown option that disables early unlocking entirely. In both cases, the
selected lock period cannot be overridden by the exchange, ensuring users
retain full control over their chosen security settings. This reflects
Binance’s goal of giving users clear and enforceable security controls.

“User
protection is important across all digital and financial platforms, and
security is most effective when it is both proactive and user-driven,” said
Jimmy Su, Chief Security Officer at Binance. “Withdraw Protection is
designed as a proactive control that gives users more choice over account
security, and it reflects the evolution of digital asset services toward
stronger user safeguards.”

Binance
emphasizes that Withdraw Protection is part of a broader approach to
responsible asset management and not a substitute for good cyber hygiene and
vigilance. Users are encouraged to follow best practices such as whitelisting
withdrawal addresses in advance, maintaining strong authentication methods, and
exercising discretion while discussing their crypto holdings. By combining
education with practical tools like Withdraw Protection, Binance aims to help
build a safer and more resilient ecosystem for all users.

Availability:
Withdraw Protection is progressively rolled out across all regions. iOS users
must be on iOS 16 or above and Binance app version 3.14.0 or above to use this
feature. Users can learn more about the new feature here.

<title>Tramontina Celebrates 115 Years of Unique Cooking Experiences</title>
<link>https://en.newsbolt.in/tramontina-celebrates-115-years-of-unique-cooking-experiences</link>
<guid>https://en.newsbolt.in/tramontina-celebrates-115-years-of-unique-cooking-experiences</guid>
<description><![CDATA[ Known globally for its
stellar knives and health-first cookware, the brand strengthens its foothold in
India

Mumbai,
06th May, 2026 : Tramontina, a global
leader in Houseware, completes 115 successful years of designing and
manufacturing innovative cookware, kitchen tools and home essentials that have
found a place in kitchens across the world.

Founded
in Brazil in 1911, the brand has grown on a simple belief: cookware should
combine safety, performance and longevity. For over a century, Tramontina has
focused on creating products that are not only efficient in the kitchen but
built to last, supporting generations of home cooks and professionals alike.

In
2024, Tramontina brought this legacy to India, a country where food is emotion,
tradition and celebration all at once. Recognising the uniqueness of the Indian
kitchen, the company introduced a specially curated portfolio that goes beyond
its global bestsellers. Alongside its internationally known knives and premium
cookware, the India range includes staples such as tawas, kadhais, pressure
cookers and other region-specific utensils rarely used elsewhere.

The
company is setting up manufacturing units for kitchenware in Hubbali, India,
thereby bringing its globally acclaimed craftsmanship in manufacturing in
partnership with Aequs Pvt. Ltd. for the first time outside of the Americas.
Tramontina plans to leverage the manufacturing unit to support the India
business and also export to multiple countries.

Today,
Tramontina offers over 500 SKUs in India, where cookware accounts for nearly
80% of the share, while knives and kitchen tools contribute the remaining 20%.
Across categories, the brand brings globally benchmarked quality standards,
including products with NSF certification offering added assurance on hygiene,
food-contact safety and reliable, non-reactive cooking surfaces in its premium
stainless steel triply ranges, ceramic coated cookware, cast-iron and more.

As
consumers increasingly move away from disposable purchases and invest in
cookware that performs better and lasts longer, Tramontina’s philosophy of
durability and safety resonates strongly with modern Indian households.

Tramontina recently ventured into waste management with the
launch of a premium and ergonomic range of trash cans. The brand has also
unveiled a new range of cookware and buffet solutions for the hospitality
segment. As part of its next phase of growth, Tramontina plans to introduce its
garden and farming equipment, along with DIY tools, as its upcoming categories.

Since its launch, Tramontina has expanded to over 2,500 retail
touchpoints across India, supported by a strong omni-channel strategy spanning
general trade, modern retail and e-commerce platforms, including deep presence
in Reliance Retail, LULU Hypermarket, Shopperstop, Freshpik and Metro. The
brand has grown significantly in Amazon and today has a substantial presence
across the top 3 quick commerce platforms. The response signals a growing
appetite for global quality rooted in practical, everyday functionality.

As
Tramontina marks 115 years, the milestone is less about numbers and more about
sustenance; of craftsmanship, of innovation, and of being part of moments that
matter. Because long after the meal is over, what remains are the conversations
around the table and the tools that helped create them.

About Tramontina:

Founded in 1911 in Brazil, Tramontina is an
international brand with more than 115 years of high-end housewares
manufacturing experience. Tramontina products, delivering premium quality,
innovation, and functionality, are available in over 120 countries. Tramontina
is dedicated to being a leading manufacturer of cookware, cutlery, kitchen
accessories, and housewares items. One of the company&#039;s core values is
environmental responsibility and sustainable development.

<title>Carysil, The Largest Emerging Global Force in Kitchen Manufacturing, Accelerates Its Expansion in India</title>
<link>https://en.newsbolt.in/carysil-the-largest-emerging-global-force-in-kitchen-manufacturing-accelerates-its-expansion-in-india</link>
<guid>https://en.newsbolt.in/carysil-the-largest-emerging-global-force-in-kitchen-manufacturing-accelerates-its-expansion-in-india</guid>
<description><![CDATA[ The
modern kitchen has undergone a fundamental shift in how it is conceived,
designed and experienced. Once defined primarily by utility, it has become one
of the most deliberate spaces in the contemporary home; a reflection of how
people live, what they value, and the standards they hold their environments
to. The materials chosen, the appliances integrated, the way form and function
are made to coexist; each decision now carries a level of intent it simply did
not before.

For
a brand that has spent over three decades at the intersection of manufacturing
precision and design ambition, this shift is not a challenge to navigate, but a
direction to lead. At Innovaxpo 2026, Carysil presents a portfolio that meets
this moment directly; a considered body of work shaped by technology, material
innovation, and design integrity, and reflective of where the category is
heading next.

Built
on decades of growth and driven by a forward-looking mindset, Carysil continues
to scale with clarity and conviction. On display across sinks, appliances,
faucets and integrated kitchen concepts is the outcome of a development
philosophy that remains consistent even as the portfolio expands: start with
the consumer, follow the design, and invest deeply in material and technology.

At
the core of this showcase is Carysil’s advancement in next-generation quartz
and granite sinks, engineered for superior durability, resistance, and
finish consistency, while aligning with increasingly refined aesthetic
expectations. Complementing this is the brand’s evolution in integrated
stainless steel worktops, designed to create seamless, joint-free surfaces
that enhance both hygiene and visual continuity; bringing precision
manufacturing into everyday usability.

Innovation
extends into everyday functionality through Carysil’s RO faucet systems,
which integrate purified drinking water directly into the primary tap
architecture. By combining dual water channels within a single, design-led
unit, these faucets eliminate the need for separate fixtures, improving
efficiency while maintaining a clean, uncluttered kitchen aesthetic. The RO
faucets are designed to make clean drinking water easily accessible through
every household tap across India.

Within
appliances, the introduction of the CX Range marks a significant step
forward. Conceived as an ultra-premium line rooted in European design
philosophy, the range of hobs is defined by minimalism, precision and intuitive
control. Each unit is engineered for powerful, consistent performance,
supported by advanced safety systems and responsive interfaces that bring
accuracy and ease into everyday cooking. Extending beyond hobs, Carysil’s
built-in appliance portfolio; including microwaves, combi ovens, electric and
gas ovens, and warming drawers; creates a cohesive ecosystem across collections
such as Linear, Eclipse, Matrix and Classic, where technology and design
operate in complete alignment.

Material
innovation finds further expression in Carysil Blue; Developed for
high-performance environments, it reflects Carysil’s continued investment in
proprietary technologies that elevate both durability and finish. Carysil Blue
represents the brand’s considered move beyond the kitchen, extending its
design-led, innovation-driven approach into the bathroom space. Conceived as a
curated suite rather than a standalone offering, it reflects Carysil’s evolving
vision of becoming a holistic solutions provider; where kitchen and bath are
not treated as separate categories, but as part of a cohesive, elevated living
environment. Through Carysil Blue, the brand brings the same rigour of quality,
materiality, and thoughtful integration to the bathroom, creating a more
seamless and refined residential experience.

These
product innovations come together within Carysil’s integrated kitchen
solution concepts, where sinks, faucets, appliances and surfaces are
designed not as individual components, but as part of a unified system. The
result is a kitchen environment defined by cohesion, efficiency, and design
continuity; reflecting the way contemporary consumers increasingly expect their
spaces to function. Sustainability-led processes further underpin this
approach, with responsible manufacturing and material optimisation embedded
into long-term product development.

The
business context reflects strong and deliberate momentum. Export markets
continue to perform, with North America, Europe, and the Middle East remaining
central to Carysil’s international strategy. At home, India is emerging as a
growth engine of genuine scale; driven by urbanisation, premium housing, and
the increasing adoption of modular kitchens. This shift is matched by Carysil’s
expanding distribution, wider product reach, and a brand proposition aligned
with the Indian consumer’s growing design awareness.

Carysil’s
competitive strategy has never been built on price. It is anchored in design
intelligence, manufacturing excellence, and the ability to deliver integrated
solutions rather than fragmented offerings. As the category moves further
toward premiumisation, smart living, and sustainability, the gap between brands
built on long-term investment and those driven by short-term gains will only
widen. Carysil continues to operate firmly in the former, with a focus on
enduring value.

Innovation
and design sit at the centre of Carysil’s approach, but they are not pursued in
isolation. They are supported by a strong foundation of discipline, resilience,
and consistency, enabling the brand to participate meaningfully in segments
where consumers prioritise craft, aesthetic coherence, and lasting quality.
This is further strengthened by a distribution model that spans expanded dealer
networks, deeper engagement with architects and developers, and a considered
retail presence aligned with premium, experience-led categories.

Innovaxpo
2026, for Carysil, is as much a dialogue as it is a showcase. It brings
together the architects, designers, partners, and industry voices who will
shape the next phase of growth, across India and the more than 55 countries
where Carysil is present. The portfolio introduced this year reflects not only
where the brand stands today, but the clarity with which it continues to move
forward.

About
Carysil

Founded
in 1987, the Carysil Group has evolved into Asia’s premier quartz kitchen sink
manufacturer and the fourth largest producer globally. Headquartered in India,
with subsidiaries in the UK, Germany, and the UAE, Carysil’s presence spans
more than 55 countries.

Rooted
in discipline, resilience, and consistency, Carysil’s journey reflects a
long-term commitment to building with intent and precision. Under the
leadership of Chairman and Managing Director Chirag Parekh, the company has
expanded its portfolio beyond quartz sinks to include stainless steel sinks,
faucets, and a refined range of built-in kitchen appliances.

With
a strong emphasis on technology-led innovation and continuous advancement,
Carysil continues to shape the future of integrated kitchen living while
maintaining the integrity and depth that define its global presence. ]]></description>

<title>BEYOND THE MELTDOWN: HOW TO MOVE FROM DISCIPLINE TO CONNECTION WITH YOUR CHILD BY KARISHMA</title>
<link>https://en.newsbolt.in/beyond-the-meltdown-how-to-move-from-discipline-to-connection-with-your-child-by-karishma</link>
<guid>https://en.newsbolt.in/beyond-the-meltdown-how-to-move-from-discipline-to-connection-with-your-child-by-karishma</guid>
<description><![CDATA[ When a child is screaming, throwing a toy, or
shutting down in silence, our parental instinct is often to fix the behavior.
We reach for discipline by taking away the toy or give stern lectures because
we fear that if we don&#039;t correct the action immediately, we are falling behind
as parents. But modern neuroscience tells a different story. To change a
behavior, we must first address the nervous system.

Science behind why discipline often fails?

When a child is in the middle of a meltdown, their
logical brain has effectively gone offline and what dominates is the emotional
center.

The reality behind is when a child is in fight, flight
or freeze mode at that time they are physically incapable of learning a lesson.
Here major mistakes we make as parents, we punish them in this state, and we
add more stress to an already overloaded system. This does not teach them how
to behave rather it teaches them that they are alone when they are at their
worst. 

How to Co-Regulate?

Co-regulation is the process where the parent or an
adult uses their own calm, regulated state to help anchor a child who is
drowning in emotion. It is the bridge that helps a child move from chaos back
to clarity. At this stage a parent is the thermostat, not the thermometer, you
set the temperature rather than just reflecting it.

How to move from discipline to connection: 

1.The Pause before the Push - Before addressing the
child&#039;s behavior it is important to check your own temperature. If you are
angry, your child&#039;s nervous system will see a threat and stay in survival mode.
Taking one deep breath and reminding yourself ‘My child isn&#039;t giving me a hard time,
my child is having a hard time’, will change the situation completely. 

 

2.Connection vs. Isolation - We want our children to
reflect on their choices but they can&#039;t do that when they are alone and upset.
Sending a child away to a room to think about what they did usually makes them
feel resentful, not thoughtful. So instead of scolding and isolating them, hold
them to calm down with you nearby. Your physical presence sends a signal to
their system that they are safe. Once they are calm, they are finally in a
mental space where they can actually think about what they did wrong. 

 

3.Naming the feeling not just the action - Help them name
the emotion so they can understand it. By addressing the behavior e.g. stop
hitting, stop yelling we ignore the emotion they are trying to express. If you
name that feeling or emotion you are helping them decode their own internal
mess. This helps their thinking brain to be active again because they suddenly
feel seen and understood. 

 

4.Setting firm boundaries - Connection is not about
letting things slide. If a child is hurting others or themselves, step in. Use
a calm and firm voice to stop the behavior then get back to connection. The
goal isn&#039;t just to stop the crying but it is to teach your child how to handle
their own big feelings. Every time you stay calm while they are storming, you
are teaching their brain how to eventually calm itself down. 

What is the key ingredient then?

If we want to teach our child a new habit or a skill, we
must be consistent and firm.

Children always crave predictability. When we are
consistent in our responses and firm with the boundaries, the child will feel
secure. They will learn that they can count on you to keep the rules clear,
even when you will be their supportive co - regulator. Consistency is what
turns a lesson into a habit.

The most vital part of this is separating your moods
from your parenting. It is natural to have
difficult days, but your child’s boundaries shouldn’t change just because you
had a stressful afternoon. If we scold them only when we are in a bad mood, or
let things slide when we are in a good one, it creates confusion. Your child
needs to know that the rules are steady, regardless of how you are feeling that
day. By keeping your reactions predictable and steady, you create a safe,
stable foundation they can trust.

To all the parents, you won&#039;t be perfect. There will be
days you lose your cool. When that happens just repair the bond. Apologizing to
your child, it is the most powerful way to show your child how to own their
mistakes. Discipline is about control while connection is
about growth. When we stop being the judge and start becoming the
co-regulator we don&#039;t just see better behavior but also we build a bond that
can withstand the storm.

<description><![CDATA[ Rajalakshmi Medical College Hospital and Research
Institute (RMCHRI) has successfully performed a complex, minimally invasive
surgery for advanced stomach cancer in a post chemotherapy patient, marking a
significant step forward in its commitment to delivering cutting-edge cancer
care.

Gastric cancer remains one of the more aggressive
malignancies, often requiring a multidisciplinary treatment approach that
integrates chemotherapy with surgical intervention for optimal outcomes. The
team performed a total gastrectomy with lymph node dissection and
reconstruction, a technically demanding procedure traditionally carried out
through open surgery.

 

Dr. Haree Shankar Meganathan, Vice chairman of
Rajalakshmi Group, stated:

&quot;This procedure is a testament to our focus on
accessible healthcare to all while adopting evidence-based surgical techniques

<description><![CDATA[  

In today’s fast-paced lifestyle, skincare has become
more than a beauty ritual; it is a daily act of self-care. With pollution,
changing weather, stress, sunscreen, makeup, and excess oil affecting the skin
every day, the need for a gentle yet effective cleanser has become more
important than ever. Understanding this everyday skincare requirement, Blossom
Kochhar Aroma Magic offers two nature-inspired cleansing solutions: White Tea &amp; Chamomile Face Wash and Lavender Face Wash.

Designed to support fresh, clean, and healthy-looking
skin, these face washes bring together botanical extracts, essential oils, and
aromatherapy-led care. For consumers looking for a Natural Face Wash, a Face
Wash for Glowing Skin, a natural face wash for dry skin, a Face
Wash for Oily Skin, or a natural face wash for glowing skin, Aroma
Magic’s gentle cleansers offer an effective way to upgrade daily skincare
routines.

The Importance of Choosing the Right Daily Cleanser

Cleansing is the foundation of every skincare routine.
It helps remove dirt, sweat, excess sebum, pollution, sunscreen residue, and
daily impurities that settle on the skin. However, the right cleanser should
not only clean the skin but also maintain its comfort and natural balance.

A harsh face wash may leave the skin feeling stretched,
dry, or irritated. This is why consumers are increasingly looking for skincare
products that are gentle, nature-inspired, and suitable for daily use.

A good face wash should help:

●     
Remove
impurities and excess oil 

●     
Keep
the skin feeling fresh and clean 

●     
Support
a healthy-looking glow 

●     
Prepare
the skin for moisturiser, sunscreen, or serum 

●     
Cleanse
without stripping the skin’s natural moisture 

●     
Make
everyday skincare simple and effective 

With this approach, Aroma Magic’s White Tea &amp;
Chamomile Face Wash and Lavender Face Wash are positioned as everyday
essentials for clean, calm, and naturally radiant skin.

soothed.

White tea is known for its antioxidant-rich skincare
benefits and helps protect the skin from environmental stress. Chamomile
essential oil adds a calming touch, making the cleanser suitable for those who
want a gentle yet refreshing daily wash.

<title>Crafting Bharat: Season 3 — From Idea to &amp;apos;Super Startups&amp;apos; Presented by AWS Startups and an initiative by NewsReach</title>
<link>https://en.newsbolt.in/crafting-bharat-season-3-from-idea-to-super-startups-presented-by-aws-startups-and-an-initiative-by-newsreach</link>
<guid>https://en.newsbolt.in/crafting-bharat-season-3-from-idea-to-super-startups-presented-by-aws-startups-and-an-initiative-by-newsreach</guid>
<description><![CDATA[ Ten years ago, Startup India was a government policy.
Today, it is a movement. India has crossed 200,000 registered startups — not
just in Bengaluru or Mumbai, but emerging out of every state, every tier, every
community that dared to think differently. What began as a push to unlock
entrepreneurship has become something far more significant: the birth of an
entirely new class of company — the Super Startup.

A Super Startup is not defined by its valuation or its
venture backers. It is defined by clarity of purpose, speed of execution, the
depth of its technological backbone, and its ability to build businesses that
endure. It sees the market not as it is — but as it could be. It moves before
the window opens. And it scales not just in revenue, but in real-world impact.

It is this question — What does it take to build a Super
Startup? — that sits at the heart of Crafting Bharat: Season 3.

An initiative by NewsReach, presented by AWS Startups,
with production partner HT Smartcast, Crafting Bharat: Season 3 returns with
its most ambitious lineup yet — a front-row seat to the minds, methods, and
defining moments behind India’s next generation of breakout companies. Across
ten episodes, the series brings together founders who are not just building
businesses; they are engineering category leaders across healthcare, financial
services, wealth management, cybersecurity, entertainment, and e-commerce.

This season, the lens sharpens. Where earlier seasons
illuminated the journey of building in India, Season 3 goes deeper — into the
architecture of scale. Every founder conversation unpacks one central idea: how
does a bold idea, forged in the furnace of Indian market realities, evolve into
a Super Startup? The answers lie in the intersection of visionary thinking,
technology leverage — particularly AI and cloud — and the kind of relentless
decision-making that separates companies that survive from companies that
define their category.

Hosting the conversations once again is Gautam
Srinivasan, Consulting Editor across CNBC India, CNN-News18, Forbes India, and
The Economic Times — one of India’s most respected business journalists, whose
ability to get founders to speak candidly has become a signature of the
Crafting Bharat experience.



 



Speaking at the launch, Darshan Shah, Co-Founder and CEO
of NewsReach, reflected on the evolution of the series and what this season
represents:



“When
we launched Crafting Bharat, we believed India’s most powerful startup stories
were being left untold. Three seasons later, that belief has become a
conviction. Season 3 raises the bar — because the founders we’re spotlighting
this year aren’t just building companies. They are building infrastructure for
the next decade of India. The concept of the Super Startup — built on clarity,
speed, and technological depth — is not aspirational. It is already happening.
And Crafting Bharat is where those stories will live. I’m deeply grateful to
AWS Startups for being the partner that has made this vision possible, season
after season.”—
Darshan Shah, Co-Founder &amp; CEO, NewsReach





 



Echoing this vision, Sriram Santhanam, Head of Startups,
India at AWS, highlighted why this season marks a pivotal moment in India’s
startup story:



“From the first line of code to global expansion, AWS is
committed to supporting every stage of a founder’s journey. In India, we are
witnessing a pivotal shift where startups are becoming more resilient and
globally competitive than ever before. Crafting Bharat: Season 3 is a
celebration of this &#039;Think Big&#039; mindset. By partnering with NewsReach, we aim
to spotlight the innovators who are utilizing AI and cloud technology to
redefine what’s possible on a global stage”. - 
Sriram Santhanam, Head of Startups, India at AWS

<title>VOH National Stroke Conclave 2026: Driving Systems, Policy &amp;amp; Innovation for Stroke Care in India</title>
<link>https://en.newsbolt.in/voh-national-stroke-conclave-2026-driving-systems-policy-innovation-for-stroke-care-in-india</link>
<guid>https://en.newsbolt.in/voh-national-stroke-conclave-2026-driving-systems-policy-innovation-for-stroke-care-in-india</guid>
<description><![CDATA[ New Delhi, May 6, 2026: India’s
stroke care landscape is at a critical juncture, with nearly 1.8–2 million new
cases reported annually and less than 15% of patients reaching hospitals within
the golden treatment window. Stroke remains a leading cause of death and
long-term disability, reflecting significant gaps in awareness, timely access,
and healthcare infrastructure.

Addressing this challenge, the VOH National Stroke
Conclave, endorsed by the Indian Stroke Association and supported by the
India Hypertension Control Initiative and Yatharth Super Speciality Hospital,
brought together leading neurologists, policymakers, and healthcare experts in
New Delhi. The conclave, an initiative by Voice of Healthcare, focused on
driving actionable strategies to strengthen stroke care across India.

Setting the tone, Dr. Naveen Nishchal, Founder, Voice
of Healthcare, highlighted infrastructure gaps, stating, “There remains a
significant gap in stroke care across tier 3 cities, driven by a shortage of
neurologists and specialised infrastructure… many regions still lack even basic
facilities like CT scan machines.”

Highlighting the scale of the challenge, Dr. Vikram Huded,
President, Indian Stroke Association, said, “India records nearly 1.8
million stroke cases annually, yet access to timely treatment remains
critically limited. Fewer than 5% of eligible patients receive thrombolysis.”
He emphasized the need for faster response systems to improve outcomes.

Dr. Arvind Sharma,
Secretary, Indian Stroke Association, stressed that “advancing stroke care
in India demands the convergence of innovation, strategic partnerships, and
supportive policy,” while calling for a more coordinated, system-wide
approach.

Offering a global perspective, Dr. Jeyaraj Pandian,
President, World Stroke Organization, highlighted regional disparities and
pointed to telemedicine and AI as key enablers in expanding access.

From an industry standpoint, Amit Singh, Group CEO,
Yatharth Super Speciality Hospital, stated, “stroke is increasingly
affecting younger populations,” underscoring the need for awareness, early
recognition, and scalable care models.

Discussions at the conclave spanned the full continuum of
stroke care—from policy and prevention to acute management and long-term
recovery. Experts emphasized integrating stroke into national NCD programs,
strengthening financing frameworks, and addressing the gap between policy
intent and implementation.

A strong focus was placed on prevention and early diagnosis,
including better control of hypertension and diabetes, improved screening, and
FAST awareness. In line with this, Voice of Healthcare has also launched a
nationwide hypertension awareness campaign under the banner ‘BP Ko Halke
Mai Na Le’, highlighting the silent risks of uncontrolled blood pressure,
which can lead to serious conditions such as stroke, cardiac arrest, and kidney
failure, while encouraging people to take early action.

Clinical discussions addressed reducing treatment delays,
improving access to thrombolysis and thrombectomy, and strengthening emergency
response systems and care pathways. Experts also highlighted the growing role
of digital health, with AI and tele-stroke networks improving access,
particularly in underserved areas.

A key highlight was the launch of the National Stroke
Patient Support Network, led by Dr. Kunal Bahrani, aimed at creating
a structured continuum of care from emergency response to long-term recovery.

Dr. Bahrani noted, “Stroke care does not end at
discharge. A structured recovery pathway is essential to improving long-term outcomes
and quality of life for patients.”

The conclave concluded with a strong consensus on the need
for coordinated action across policy, clinical practice, innovation, and
patient-centric care systems to improve stroke outcomes in India. ]]></description>

<title>Most Eminent Startups of India 2026</title>

<description><![CDATA[  Proud moments from the ecosystem —
Awards | Funding | Recognition.

India’s startup
ecosystem in 2026 reflects a powerful shift beyond conventional tech-led
narratives, showcasing a diverse wave of ventures redefining industries through
innovation, scalability, and purpose. From design-driven brands like Art N
Vintage that reinterpret heritage craftsmanship, to food and supply-chain
disruptors such as The Chatpata Affair and Sukhna Foods, and emerging platforms
in IP exchange, AI-led education, compliance, and digital ecosystems, these
startups represent the breadth of new-age entrepreneurship. What unites them is
a strong focus on solving real-world problems—whether through technology,
sustainability, community enablement, or premium product innovation—while
building scalable, future-ready models. Together, they highlight how India’s
next generation of startups is not only driving economic growth but also
setting new benchmarks across sectors, both domestically and on the global
stage.

1. ART N VINTAGE

Recognised with the “Brand
Creation Award” by the Council for Leather Exports in 2024,

Art N Vintage stands
among a new generation of Indian labels shaping global relevance from within
their own cultural ground. Founded by NIFT alumni Priti Kumari and Shailendra
Kumar, the brand manipulates traditional leatherwork, fusing it in ways that go
beyond finish or form. The material used absorbs time and handling, where every
mark and surface carries continuity. As Priti Kumari puts it, “Leather should
not feel new for long, it should settle into you, as it has always belonged.”

One of its most
distinctive expressions is the interpretation of Indian heritage through design
and materials, and one such design is the collection inspired by the Hawa
Mahal, where the structure&#039;s rhythm is translated into leather. It&#039;s a
wonderful tribute to the richness of tradition and creativity!

At a time when
international brands draw inspiration from India&#039;s rich techniques, Art N
Vintage thrives within this ecosystem, showcasing a design language rooted in
history and materials with a distinct perspective. The brand has introduced a
global design language to the Indian market, effectively blending with local
contexts. This approach has allowed the brand to expand internationally while
staying true to its origins.

2. Chatpata Affair

In a startup
ecosystem largely dominated by technology led ventures, The Chatpata Affair is
emerging as a powerful outlier redefining how India builds and scales food
brands. Founded in 2020 amid unprecedented uncertainty, the brand has
transformed adversity into momentum, rapidly growing into a multiformat
vegetarian QSR chain that blends the nostalgia of Indian street food with the
structure and hygiene of modern retail.

What truly
differentiates The Chatpata Affair is its sharp focus on scalability and
inclusivity. Instead of limiting growth to company owned outlets, the brand has
created flexible, plug and play formats ranging from compact kiosks and food
carts to high street cafés allowing first time entrepreneurs to step into the
F&amp;B space with relatively low risk and strong backend support. This model
not only fuels expansion but also builds a community of partners growing
alongside the brand.

3. Sukhna Foods 
     

Sukhna Foods is a
leading food production company that serves as a thorough back-end partner to
notable brands like Blinkit Bistro, Biryani By Kilo, and many others. It
provides customised frozen and chilled solutions across multiple savouries like
kebabs, momos, gravies, biryanis, stuffed paranthas and much more.

Founded by Satvik
Ahuja, Sukhna was built on an idea of running kitchens in a chef-less and
foolish friendly model, a much needed requirement by hotels, restaurants, QSR
chains, caterers, and modern retailers.

This empowers
management to not be held back by staff dependency, volatile raw material
prices, hygiene gaps, inconsistent batches, or the constant trade-off between
speed and quality. Everything is designed to taste fresh and most importantly,
gourmet.

Every product is made
in FSSC 22000-certified facility and locked in for freshness using food-grade
technologies like Modified Atmosphere Packaging and Blast Freezing. From a
5-star buffet line to a 120-outlet QSR brand, Sukhna Foods gives kitchens many
things to stop worrying about and one thing to celebrate - amazingly
great-tasting food.

4. Arogyam Home Stay

5. ProducerBazaar

ProducerBazaar, a
Fipchain Venture, Closes Pre-Series A to Build Global IP Trade Infrastructure

CHENNAI / SINGAPORE -
Fipchain, parent of ProducerBazaar, has closed its Pre-Series A round, led by
Singapore-based accelerator River Ventures, with strategic participation from
Venture Forge Labs, angel investor Mr. Chandu Nair, and a consortium of
investors from India, UAE, and Germany. Panya Capital advised the transaction.

The capital advances
Fipchain&#039;s pursuit of meaningful share in the global TV, film, video, and AI
content IP marketplace valued at US$28 billion and projected at US$47 billion
by 2029 (19% CAGR). India is forecast as the second fastest-growing market at
22% CAGR; the broader digital creative economy is set to surpass US$7 trillion
by 2030.

Despite India&#039;s
content-producing scale, global IP trade remains fragmented, with no dominant
Indian-origin integrated IP exchange. ProducerBazaar - a marketplace for film,
series, and media IP discovery, licensing, and monetization—connects creators,
studios, OTTs, and international broadcasters. Fipchain envisions an integrated
IP lifecycle spanning governance, rights intelligence, discovery, and
transaction enablement.

marks a defining moment in building a transparent, scalable IP marketplace,&quot;
said Founder &amp; CEO G K Tirunavukarasu.

Co-Founder &amp; CBO
Vijay D added: &quot;Global demand for high-quality IP accelerates; our focus
is seamless, high-value cross-border transactions.&quot;

Proceeds will
strengthen core technology, AI-driven IP discovery, and expansion across Asia,
the Middle East, and Europe.

7. SecureNet

Reimagining
Surveillance and Premium Tech: The Rise of Shiv Shankar Singh

In an industry often
driven by price wars and commoditization, Shiv Shankar Singh is taking a
contrarian path—one that prioritizes precision, performance, and long-term
trust over short-term scale.

Hailing from
Prayagraj, Singh is emerging as a new-age entrepreneur who is not just building
businesses, but reshaping how entire categories operate.

At the center of this
transformation is SecureNet, his surveillance-focused venture that aims to
redefine the standards of safety infrastructure in India.

www.securenetindia.com

Rebuilding a
Fragmented Industry

India’s surveillance
market has long been dominated by inconsistent quality, fragmented
distribution, and heavy reliance on price-based competition. Singh identified
this gap early—and chose not to compete within it, but to change it.

Through SecureNet, he
is working toward building a trust-led surveillance ecosystem, where
performance and reliability are non-negotiable.

His guiding
philosophy, “Aap Surakshit Toh Desh Surakshit,” reflects a broader
vision—positioning security not merely as a product, but as a national
responsibility.

Rather than chasing
volume, SecureNet is focused on elevating product quality, after-sales support,
and long-term reliability, setting a new benchmark in a category that has
historically lacked standardization.

Entering the
High-Performance Gaming Market with SILOED

In a strategic
expansion, Singh is now entering India’s rapidly growing gaming hardware
segment with the launch of SILOED—a premium brand aimed at delivering high-end,
performance-first gaming products.

Unlike the
mass-market approach prevalent in the segment, SILOED is being positioned as a
high-performance, siloed ecosystem, catering to users who prioritize quality,
durability, and elite performance.

The move signals a
larger ambition—to not only participate in high-growth industries, but to
create differentiated, premium-first categories within them.

A Philosophy Rooted
in Discipline and Execution

Beyond his ventures,
Singh is also known for his work in mindset and personal development. As the
author of “Why Ordinary” and “How to be Extraordinary”, he advocates for a
disciplined approach to success—one that moves beyond motivation and focuses on
consistent execution.

His digital presence
further amplifies these ideas, where he shares practical insights on growth,
leadership, and building long-term value.

https://www.youtube.com/@shivshankarsinghmotivation

Building for the Long
Term

At a time when many
startups prioritize rapid scaling and visibility, Shiv Shankar Singh’s approach
stands out for its clarity and restraint.

His focus remains on:

Building
category-defining brands

Creating premium,
performance-driven products

Establishing trust as
a core business asset

As he expands across
surveillance and gaming technology, Singh represents a shift in Indian
entrepreneurship—where success is not just measured by scale, but by the
ability to set new standards in existing industries.

In a market crowded
with players, Shiv Shankar Singh is building something rarer—

not just businesses,
but benchmarks.

10. Leads Swap AI

Swagat Gathibandhe is
one of the most growing names in the field of lead generation. The transition
of India’s digital economy from volume-based marketing to technical precision
represents a significant structural shift. As the traditional
&quot;mass-outreach&quot; model reaches a point of diminishing returns, the
industry is moving toward more sophisticated, data-backed frameworks. At the
forefront of this evolution is Swagat, one of the youngest lead generation
experts in India, who is introducing a more clinical approach to client
acquisition.

At 19, Swagat’s work
centers on intent-based lead finding solutions and the development of LeadSwap
AI. This methodology moves away from generic broadcasts, focusing instead on
identifying a company’s specific requirements and internal &quot;buying
signals&quot; before any contact is initiated. This high-level logic is
currently utilized by firms supporting major Indian entities such as Tata
Communications, Croma, and UPL.

By identifying
verifiable indicators of a company&#039;s actual needs, the goal is to eliminate
cold prospecting in favor of solving problems for businesses already seeking
solutions. Swagat emphasizes the distinction between a qualified prospect and a
simple list:

&quot;If you still
have to &#039;sell&#039; to a lead despite them showing an intent to buy, then it isn&#039;t a
lead—it is just raw data.&quot;

For businesses
looking to scale, the choice to move beyond traditional methods is becoming a
necessity. Aligning with Swagat’s intent-driven systems ensures that a mutual
match is established before the first conversation begins. In an industry often
defined by abstract promises, Swagat is re-engineering the fundamental way
businesses connect, making him the definitive choice for those serious about
growth.

<title>HUFT’s New Summer ‘26 Collection Turns Everyday Moments into Little Tales of Joy</title>
<link>https://en.newsbolt.in/hufts-new-summer-26-collection-turns-everyday-moments-into-little-tales-of-joy</link>
<guid>https://en.newsbolt.in/hufts-new-summer-26-collection-turns-everyday-moments-into-little-tales-of-joy</guid>
<description><![CDATA[ New
Delhi, April 2026 : Summer arrives quietly at first. In the
golden stretch of sunlight across your living room floor. In the slower
mornings, where your dog lingers a little longer by your side, and your cat
claims the coolest corner of the house as their own. Soon, it’s everywhere; in
the warmth of late afternoon walks, the hum of ceiling fans, and the easy
rhythm of days that feel just a bit more unhurried.

For
pet parents, summer is a season made up of these small, fleeting moments. The
kind that don’t ask for much, yet stay with you long after they’ve passed.

This
year, Heads Up For Tails
(HUFT) brings those moments to life with its Summer ‘26 collection, a
thoughtfully designed range that draws from the charm and whimsy of storybooks,
where the ordinary turns magical, and every day holds a little adventure.

Built
around the idea that the best stories aren’t always told, but lived, the
collection blends comfort, functionality, and playful design into pieces that
fit seamlessly into your pet’s summer routine. Picture dresses and tees, in
picnic gingham and sweet strawberries to safari inspired harnesses and cheerful
floral prints that makes every moment feel like a stroll through a sunlit page.

At
home, the story continues in quieter ways. Plush beds designed for afternoon
naps, cushioned mats that stay cool against the summer heat, and fabrics chosen
to be breathable, gentle, and pet-friendly, creating spaces where pets can
truly unwind. Whether it’s a lazy post-lunch nap or a pause between play
sessions, each piece is made to support the slower, softer rhythm of the
season.

“This
collection was inspired by the idea that summer, much like a storybook, is
filled with moments of lightness, curiosity, and joy,” says Geetanjali
Rastogi, Creative Director at Heads Up For Tails. “We wanted to create
designs that feel playful yet purposeful…pieces that not only look beautiful
but are also tailored for the realities of Indian summer. From breathable
fabrics and easy fits to thoughtful construction that allows for movement and
comfort, every detail has been carefully considered to ensure pets feel as good
as they look.”

True
to HUFT’s design philosophy, the collection balances aesthetics with
functionality. The silhouettes are easy, the materials are season-appropriate,
and every product is crafted keeping in mind how pets actually live, move, and
rest through the warmer months. The result is a range that feels intuitive and
naturally belongs in your pet’s day-to-day life.

But
beyond design and detail, Summer ‘26 is really about
something simpler. It’s about the joy of shared routines: the quiet
companionship of a nap, the excitement of an evening walk after the sun dips,
the comfort of simply being together. These are the moments that don’t need
embellishment, yet somehow feel a little more special when seen through a
softer, more imaginative lens.

“Summer
has a way of slowing things down and bringing us closer to the moments that
matter,” says Rashi Narang, Founder of Heads Up For Tails. “With the
Summer ‘26 collection we wanted to celebrate that feeling, the everyday
experiences we share with our pets that often become our most cherished
memories. It’s about finding magic in the ordinary, and creating a world where
our pets are right at the heart of every story.”

With
this collection, each detail, from a thoughtfully designed harness to a
perfectly cosy mat becomes part of a larger narrative. One where comfort meets
creativity, and where even the simplest moments can feel a little more meaningful.

Because
in the end, the best summer stories aren’t the ones we plan. They’re the ones
we stumble into: in sunlit corners, quiet afternoons, and the gentle, constant
presence of our pets.

<title>Rare Life&#45;Saving Cardiac Procedure by Dr. Gautam Naik Offers Hope to Patient with Advanced Right&#45;Sided Heart Failure</title>
<link>https://en.newsbolt.in/rare-life-saving-cardiac-procedure-by-dr-gautam-naik-offers-hope-to-patient-with-advanced-right-sided-heart-failure</link>
<guid>https://en.newsbolt.in/rare-life-saving-cardiac-procedure-by-dr-gautam-naik-offers-hope-to-patient-with-advanced-right-sided-heart-failure</guid>
<description><![CDATA[ New
Delhi, 5th May, 2026 : A 58-year-old Kenyan woman with advanced
right-sided heart failure has been successfully treated at Indraprastha Apollo
Hospital, New Delhi, in what doctors describe as a rare and pathbreaking
cardiac procedure, marking one of the early such interventions in India.

The patient had
previously undergone surgical tricuspid valve replacement in 2011 using a bioprosthetic
valve (Perimount 29 mm) in the context of a right atrial mass. Over time, the
valve degenerated, as is typical with bioprosthetic valves, occurring in her
case after nearly 15 years. When she presented again, she was found to have
torrential tricuspid regurgitation along with significant valve gradients
(peak/mean: 16/10 mmHg) and severe right ventricular dysfunction, placing her
in a very high-risk category.

Given the complexity of
her condition, she had been declined for further intervention at multiple
leading centres across the country.

At Indraprastha Apollo
Hospital, New Delhi, the Heart Valve team, led by interventional cardiologist
Dr Gautam Naik as the primary operator, undertook a transcatheter
valve-in-valve procedure, an advanced, minimally invasive technique. Surgical
expertise and post-procedural intensive care support were provided by Dr Mukesh
Goel and Dr Deepa Sarkar respectively, in conjunction with the hospital’s
cardiac intensive care team.

A Sapien Ultra Resilia
29 mm transcatheter heart valve was successfully implanted within the failing
surgical valve. Intra-procedural transesophageal echocardiography confirmed
complete elimination of the regurgitation, with an excellent immediate
post-procedural gradient of just 2 mmHg.

The post-operative
period, however, posed significant challenges. The patient continued to have
right ventricular dysfunction, accompanied by low blood pressure and reduced
urine output in the initial days. She required intensive care support,
including inotropes and careful fluid management.

Over the following
days, her condition steadily improved. Right ventricular function began to
recover, urine output normalized, and her blood pressure stabilised, allowing
gradual withdrawal of inotropic support.

She was discharged
within six days in stable condition. At one-week follow-up, she reported
dramatic symptomatic improvement and has since returned to her home country.

Doctors at Apollo
described the case as a “grand success,” highlighting not just the technical
achievement but the meaningful clinical recovery in a patient who had exhausted
conventional options.

“This case underscores
the evolving role of transcatheter therapies in managing complex valvular heart
disease, especially in patients considered inoperable,”
said Dr Naik. “What makes this especially rewarding is
the patient’s recovery despite significant pre-existing right ventricular
dysfunction.”

The case adds to the
growing body of evidence supporting minimally invasive valve-in-valve therapies
and reinforces the capability of Indian centres in performing cutting-edge
structural heart interventions.

<title>Banza Raises USD 1 Million to Help People Build and Own Their Personal AI Twin</title>
<link>https://en.newsbolt.in/banza-raises-usd-1-million-to-help-people-build-and-own-their-personal-ai-twin</link>
<guid>https://en.newsbolt.in/banza-raises-usd-1-million-to-help-people-build-and-own-their-personal-ai-twin</guid>
<description><![CDATA[ Bengaluru,
India | 5th May 2026 : Funding
led by Campus Fund with participation from Avalanche and leading angel
investors to back a more personal future for AI. Banza today announced it has
raised $1 million USD in a pre-seed funding round led by Campus Fund, with
participation from Avalanche and a group of leading angel investors.

Banza is
building toward a future where every person can build and own a personal AI
Twin that becomes more useful, more personal, and more human over time. While
much of today’s AI still feels broad and interchangeable, Banza is built on a
different belief: the next important chapter of AI will be shaped by personal
relevance.

Across
digital platforms, recommendations are often influenced by platform incentives,
siloed systems, and fragmented context. Food delivery apps prioritize
visibility within their own marketplace. Streaming platforms can only recommend
from within their own libraries. Generic AI tools respond intelligently, but
often without truly understanding the person behind the prompt. The result is
an internet full of suggestions that are useful to platforms, but not always
aligned with the individual.

Banza is
building a different model. Its AI Twin is designed to learn from a user’s
preferences, habits, and context over time, helping them make better decisions
across everyday life, and often acting ahead of them. From what to eat and
watch to where to go, what to buy, and how to plan experiences, the goal is to
create AI that works in the user’s favor, not the platform’s.

“Most
recommendations today are shaped by what works for the platform, not what truly
works for the person,” said Aditya Vijaykumar, CTO at Banza. “Each service sees
only a fragment of who you are, which makes the experience biased, siloed, and
incomplete. We believe people should be able to build and own an AI Twin that
understands them more deeply over time and works in their favor across everyday
decisions.”

The funding
will be used to accelerate product development, deepen the user experience,
grow the team, and strengthen the foundation for this new category of personal
AI. Banza also sees this as an important step toward a future where AI becomes
a layer individuals can shape around their own lives, rather than a system they
must constantly adapt to.

With over
200,000 users already on the platform, Banza is entering this next chapter at a
time when AI is becoming part of everyday life, yet still often feels impersonal.
The company’s long-term vision is to build a personal intelligence layer for
everyday life that helps people turn fragmented digital behaviour into
something that works in their favor.

About Banza

Banza is building a future where every person can build and own a
personal AI Twin that becomes more useful over time. By helping users turn
fragmented digital behaviour into AI that works in their favor, Banza is
shaping a more personal and human layer for everyday life.

The company is remote-first, with the team spread across states and united by a
shared belief that AI should work for people, not platforms.

Banza was founded by Mehdi Abdi (CEO), Suraj Mulla (CBO), and Aditya Vijaykumar

<title>Why PF Claims Get Stuck for Years—And How Kustodian.life Has Helped Recover Over ₹150 Crore</title>

<description><![CDATA[ For three years, Rohan had Rs. 6.8 lakh in his EPF account.
He had already submitted four claims. It was turned down each time - with no
apparent reason.

In another case, Priya was rejected five times due to a
discrepancy between her Aadhaar and EPF records- an initial and full name
discrepancy which she, herself, did not know about. Nearly Rs. 8.4 lakh was
stuck.

The two claims were processed successfully in weeks after
the correction of the underlying records.

These cases are more common than many people might think.
Over 150 crore of such funds have been recovered in the past two years, with Kustodian helping
families, on average, 12 lakh of the money per user. The trend is a sign of
larger issue within the Indian financial system; money that exists, but is not
accessible due to fragmented records and process dependencies.

The problem begins with small discrepancies in the majority
of situations. The inability to process claims may be caused by a mismatch
between systems in the name, inaccurate date of birth, or missing KYC data.
Employer or institution reliance can be prone to aggravate these problems, and
a misplaced update or delay halts the entire process.

This is especially evident in EPF withdrawals. Claims are
frequently rejected without clear justification or are awaiting weeks. The
users will also be likely to reclaim the same claim, hoping for a different
outcome. However, when a claim is started, it is not resolved until the records
are amended.

Other cases reflect how easily this can happen. Individuals
who have switched multiple jobs often find their PF spread across accounts,
with incomplete transfers blocking withdrawals entirely. In some instances,
funds remain unclaimed for years because exit records were never updated,
leaving the system to treat the individual as still employed.

Based on an internal analysis of these cases, the actual
withdrawal request is rarely the root problem—it only accounts for 17.8% of the
hurdles. The real roadblocks lie much deeper in the underlying records. The
biggest blockers aren’t withdrawals—they’re deeper system issues. Transfers
account for 22.3% of cases, followed by contribution mismatches (18.9%), KYC
discrepancies (18.6%), and account-level issues like incorrect joining or exit
details (14.8%).

In most cases, the money is already there—it’s just locked
behind incorrect or incomplete records.

Kustodian
was built to address this gap by helping users identify and fix such issues in
a structured, system-aligned way. Instead of bypassing processes, it works
within existing frameworks—correcting records across EPFO and related
institutions so that claims can be processed as intended. This ensures that
outcomes remain compliant, verifiable, and permanent.

While EPF is often the starting point, similar patterns
extend to insurance claims, dormant bank accounts, and inheritance-linked
funds, where documentation gaps or fragmented records create comparable
barriers. Together, they point to a broader challenge around accessing money
that rightfully belongs to individuals and families.

There are often early signs that something may
be wrong—claims that remain unresolved beyond a few weeks, repeated rejections,
or inconsistencies in account details. At that stage, simply retrying the
process usually doesn’t help unless the underlying records are corrected. In
such cases, repeated attempts rarely change the outcome. In many situations,
once the right checks are applied across systems, the issue becomes clear
fairly quickly.

Kustodian offers a quick PF check
that helps surface these issues—often within minutes—before they turn into
long-term blockers

As India’s financial ecosystem continues to evolve, much of
the focus has been on enabling investments and wealth creation. But accessing
that wealth, especially when systems don’t align, remains a separate challenge.
In a system where growing wealth has become easier, accessing it shouldn’t
remain this difficult.

If your claim has been delayed, rejected, or feels stuck,
it’s worth checking what’s actually blocking it—because in most cases, the
issue won’t resolve until the underlying records are fixed.

About Kustodian.life

Kustodian is a platform that helps individuals identify and
resolve issues across EPF, Shares, Real Estate and other financial claims
through a structured, end-to-end process

<title>One Platform. Every Channel. VeUp Technologies Redefines How Enterprises Communicate at Scale</title>
<link>https://en.newsbolt.in/one-platform-every-channel-veup-technologies-redefines-how-enterprises-communicate-at-scale</link>
<guid>https://en.newsbolt.in/one-platform-every-channel-veup-technologies-redefines-how-enterprises-communicate-at-scale</guid>
<description><![CDATA[  

Bengaluru,
India: VeUp Technologies,
the enterprise communication infrastructure company, today announced it has
crossed 300 million messages delivered per month. The milestone marks the
platform’s emergence as a core layer of India’s digital business
infrastructure, handling the critical, invisible routing of OTPs, transaction
alerts, customer onboarding flows, and real-time notifications that underpin
India’s fastest-growing digital businesses.

The
company reports 99.99% platform uptime and a 99% success rate for OTP delivery,
figures that carry direct, measurable consequences for any business where
customer onboarding, transactions, or authentication depend on real-time
communication reaching its destination.

To
see how VeUp can power your business-critical communication flows, connect with our team
and get started with a tailored solution.

The Communication Layer
Most Enterprises Don’t Know Is Broken

India’s
digital economy runs on communication. Every fintech onboarding, every
e-commerce transaction alert, every lending disbursement, every healthcare
appointment, each is held together by a thread of messages that must reach the
right person, on the right channel, without fail. Yet the most critical
failures don’t happen at the channel level. They happen in the middleware layer
that routes, prioritises, and delivers those messages.

This
invisible infrastructure layer is typically fragmented across multiple vendors,
manually managed, and largely opaque to the enterprises that depend on it. A
single delivery failure can translate directly into customer churn, failed
authentication, or compliance risk. VeUp was built to replace that
fragmentation with a single, intelligent, always-on communication backbone.

&quot;Businesses
don&#039;t lose customers because they don&#039;t communicate. They lose them because
communication fails,&quot; said Pankaj Jain, Founder of VeUp Technologies. “We
built VeUp to ensure that every message reaches, every time.”

A Unified, Intelligent
Communication Backbone Built for India’s Complexity

VeUp’s
platform consolidates SMS, WhatsApp, and RCS into a single API and centralised
management interface, eliminating the fragmented vendor stack that defines most
enterprise communication setups today. At its core is an intelligent routing
engine that evaluates user behaviour patterns, device preferences, network
conditions, and historical delivery performance before every send,
automatically selecting the channel and provider with the highest probability
of successful delivery.

When
one provider experiences congestion or failure, the system reroutes instantly,
with no manual intervention and no impact to the end user. The platform is
architected specifically for the Indian regulatory and infrastructure
environment: DLT compliance is built in, high-volume burst scenarios are
handled natively, and local telecom network characteristics are factored
directly into routing logic, challenges that global platforms routinely
underestimate.

Enterprises
looking to simplify and strengthen their communication stack can connect with VeUp Technologies
to explore a solution tailored to their scale and
complexity.

Velocity: High-Performance
Middleware for Enterprise-Scale Traffic

Beyond
its unified CPaaS suite, VeUp offers Velocity, a purpose-built high-performance
messaging middleware and intelligent load balancer designed for enterprises
managing millions of messages and API requests in real time. Velocity enables
businesses to route communication traffic across multiple vendors through a
single control layer, eliminating single-provider dependency and maintaining
consistent throughput at peak demand.

The
platform’s architecture, designed for India’s scale, diversity, and regulatory
complexity from inception, positions it equally well for expansion into other
high-growth emerging markets that share similar infrastructure and compliance
characteristics.

Built for
India. Designed to Scale.

VeUp
serves enterprises across the BFSI, fintech, healthcare, logistics, e-commerce,
and digital lending sectors where regulatory adherence is non-negotiable and a
single delivery failure can translate directly into customer churn or
compliance risk. With channels spanning SMS, WhatsApp, RCS, email, and voice,
and infrastructure capable of processing over millions of API calls per day for
individual enterprise clients, the platform is engineered for the realities of
operating at India’s digital scale.

The
Road Ahead

As
businesses continue to expand their digital presence, the demand for scalable
and reliable communication infrastructure is expected to grow. Organisations
are increasingly looking for solutions that not only provide access to channels
but also simplify management and ensure consistent performance.

VeUp
is positioning itself to meet this demand through its full-stack approach,
combining CPaaS services, omnichannel capabilities, and infrastructure-level
control.

Behind
this momentum is the VeUp Technologies team, working tirelessly to make
communication faster, more reliable, and ensure every message reaches where it
matters.

About VeUp Technologies

VeUp Technologies
is an enterprise communication infrastructure company headquartered in
Bengaluru, India. The company’s unified platform connects businesses to their
customers across SMS, WhatsApp, and RCS through a single intelligent API, with
a routing and orchestration layer that ensures reliability, compliance, and
performance at scale. VeUp serves 200+ enterprises across BFSI, fintech,
healthcare, logistics, and e-commerce, processing over 300 million messages
every month with 99.99% uptime and a 99% OTP delivery success rate.

<title>Abhay Bhutada Foundation Extends Support to Shivsrushti, Offers Free Access for Women and Students</title>
<link>https://en.newsbolt.in/abhay-bhutada-foundation-extends-support-to-shivsrushti-offers-free-access-for-women-and-students</link>
<guid>https://en.newsbolt.in/abhay-bhutada-foundation-extends-support-to-shivsrushti-offers-free-access-for-women-and-students</guid>
<description><![CDATA[ Pune, India, 5 May 2026 : The Abhay Bhutada Foundation, led by its founder and chairman, CA
Abhay Bhutada, has announced an initiative to enable free entry at Shivsrushti
from May 1 to June 27, 2026, improving access to cultural and historical
learning. Shivsrushti, dedicated to the life and legacy of Chhatrapati Shivaji
Maharaj, offers an experiential journey through history using storytelling,
exhibits, and interactive environments.

Under this initiative, women and students
under the age of 18 can visit the immersive historical theme park at no cost,
making it an ideal summer outing for mothers and children to explore together.
Supported by the Foundation’s financial contribution, the effort aims to reduce
access barriers and encourage families to spend meaningful time engaging with
India’s cultural heritage. Parents and guardians accompanying children can plan
their visits through structured bookings, ensuring a smoother and more
accessible experience during the holiday period.

This initiative builds on the Abhay Bhutada
Foundation’s continued financial support for the project. In 2025, the
Foundation contributed INR 50 lakh, followed by an additional INR 75 lakh,
which helped reduce ticket prices to INR 50 for a limited period. This led to
over 1.5 lakh visitors experiencing Shivsrushti, demonstrating how improved
affordability can significantly increase participation. The current initiative
takes this effort further by enabling completely free access for women and
children.

CA Abhay Bhutada, Entrepreneur,
Philanthropist, and Chairman of TAB Global Ventures and Abhay Bhutada
Foundation, said, “Our continued support to Shivsrushti is driven by a simple
objective: To make cultural learning more accessible. After seeing the strong
response last year, we felt it was important to take this a step further by
enabling free entry for women and children. We hope this allows more families,
particularly mothers and children, to visit during the summer and engage with
history in a more experiential and meaningful way.”

The Shivsrushti team expressed gratitude
for the Foundation’s support, which has enabled free access for women and
children under 18, creating a meaningful summer outing for mothers and their
children. This initiative reflects the Foundation’s continued commitment to
expanding access to cultural spaces, with its contributions playing a key role
in making experiences like Shivsrushti more inclusive and accessible to a wider
audience.

About Abhay Bhutada Foundation

Founded in 2023, the Abhay Bhutada Foundation is
dedicated to the upliftment, education, and growth of underprivileged sections
of society. With a focus on long-term impact rather than short-term aid, the
Foundation ensures that every project is designed for sustainability and
measurable results. Fully funded by CA Abhay Bhutada without external fundraising,
the Foundation supports initiatives in education, sports, and cultural
preservation. Over a short span, its efforts have impacted lakhs of lives
across Maharashtra, creating meaningful and lasting change. ]]></description>

<title>Nirbhay Arya from Arya Samaj Movement, Engages in Scriptural Debate with Puri Shankaracharya in Kashi, Draws Attention</title>
<link>https://en.newsbolt.in/nirbhay-arya-from-arya-samaj-movement-engages-in-scriptural-debate-with-puri-shankaracharya-in-kashi-draws-attention</link>
<guid>https://en.newsbolt.in/nirbhay-arya-from-arya-samaj-movement-engages-in-scriptural-debate-with-puri-shankaracharya-in-kashi-draws-attention</guid>
<description><![CDATA[                        

Varanasi,
May 04, 2026: A remarkable instance of youthful scholarship
and confidence was witnessed in Kashi when Nirbhay Arya, a young Arya Samaj
preacher, engaged in a direct scriptural discussion with Swami Nischalananda
Saraswati at the Dakshinamurti Math.                    

Swami
Nischalananda Saraswati is the Shankaracharya of the Govardhan Math, one of the
four principal monastic institutions of the Advaita Vedanta
tradition.Nishchalananda Saraswati is an Indian Hindu spiritual leader and
scholar in the Advaita Vedanta tradition. He is the 145th Jagadguru
Shankaracharya of the Purvamnaya Sri Govardhana Peetha of Puri, Odisha, India 

The
discussion was part of an open religious interaction where Audience were
invited to seek explanations on scriptural matters directly from the Puri
Shankaracharya. In this setting, Nirbhay Arya stepped forward to present his
questions and viewpoints on key philosophical subjects.

Nirbhay
Arya is a young religious preacher affiliated with the Arya Samaj Movement, As
the interaction progressed, the discussion gradually evolved into a more
intense and structured debate. Nirbhay Arya raised thoughtful and systematic
questions related to concepts such as divine incarnation, liberation (moksha),
and the nature of an omnipotent God.

Observers
present at the event noted that the depth and sharpness of his questions
appeared to momentarily surprise and challenge the Shankaracharya, drawing
heightened attention from the audience. His confidence and continuity in
presenting counter-arguments further strengthened the intensity of the
exchange.                                   

The
moment also carried historical significance. Kashi has long been a center of
scriptural debates, and it is remembered that Swami Dayanand Saraswati, the
founder of the Arya Samaj, had also engaged in similar debates in the city.
Many observers viewed Nirbhay Arya’s participation as a continuation of that
tradition, symbolically returning to the same intellectual ground.

The
interaction highlighted a rare instance where a young participant actively
engaged in traditional scriptural discourse with an established religious
authority, creating an atmosphere of inquiry, debate, and philosophical
exchange. Following the discussion, the event continued to generate
conversations among attendees and on social platforms, with many noting the
significance of youth participation in classical philosophical traditions.  This episode has brought renewed attention to
the enduring culture of debate in Kashi and the role of young scholars in
engaging with long-standing intellectual traditions. While speaking to the
press, Nirbhay’s associate and Arya Samaj preacher from West Bengal, Sandeepan
Roy, stated that this marks a significant victory for the ideas of the Arya Samaj. ]]></description>

<title>Indian Railways Embraces AI&#45;Driven Workforce Verification System&amp;apos; 1.2 Million Employees</title>
<link>https://en.newsbolt.in/indian-railways-embraces-ai-driven-workforce-verification-system-12-million-employees</link>

<description><![CDATA[ India&#039;s
largest employer begins deployment of offline facial verification and
tamper-proof blockchain records across its 1.2 million-strong workforce,
building on technology that cut ghost employee fraud by 90% in prior government
deployments

5th
May 2026 : Indian Railways has commenced the
implementation of DRISHTI, an AI and blockchain-powered Smart Workforce
Management System that uses facial recognition and tamper-proof digital records
to verify worker attendance and prevent fraud, being rolled out across the
railway network, beginning with operations in Prayagraj.

The
system, developed by ChainCode Consulting LLP
in collaboration with Billions Network, the
universal human and AI verification platform, and Aptos Foundation,
can verify entire teams from a single group photograph, works without internet
connectivity, and creates permanent, tamper-proof records of every attendance
event. It is designed for both field and office personnel across Indian
Railways&#039; operations.

Indian
Railways is one of the world&#039;s largest employers, with more than 1.2 million
personnel operating across 7,300 stations and 18 zones. The rollout begins in
Prayagraj, with completion of the initial regional deployment expected within
three months and expansion across the wider network to follow.

Where
previous government deployments of the same technology, eliminated ghost employee fraud by up to 90%,
reduced payroll costs by 30-40%, and halved payment delays, the Indian Railways
implementation brings those proven standards to a new, high-profile use case
with the potential to set a global precedent for workforce governance at scale.

Managing
attendance verification across a workforce this large and geographically spread
has historically been vulnerable to ghost employee fraud and
administrative inefficiencies, challenges that DRISHTI is designed to address
directly.

The
system works offline, a critical requirement for railway operations in remote
and rural areas where internet connectivity is unreliable. It can identify
multiple workers simultaneously from a single photograph and locks every record
on the Aptos blockchain, making it impossible to alter after the fact. The
platform also handles supervisor approvals, real-time reporting dashboards,
task allocation, and leave management.

&quot;AI-driven
smart solutions with blockchain security are key to good governance. By combining
facial recognition with blockchain&#039;s permanent, traceable records, we eliminate
major security risks and give organizations greater control over workforce data
integrity,&quot; said Alok Gupta, Founder and CEO, ChainCode Consulting LLP.

ChainCode
Consulting has previously pioneered blockchain-based attendance and identity
platforms for different India&#039;s Government Bodies and contributed digital
verification infrastructure for MahaKumbh 2025, one of the world&#039;s largest
gatherings.

&quot;Every
worker in a system this vast deserves to be accurately identified and fairly
compensated without that requiring handing over sensitive personal data. That&#039;s
the problem we&#039;re solving: identity verification that works for people. What
India is building here shows how the world&#039;s largest institutions can operate
with both accountability and dignity,&quot; said Evin McMullen, CEO and
Co-Founder of Billions Network.

Billions
provides the decentralized identity and reusable identity infrastructure
underpinning DRISHTI, building on the company&#039;s proven track record in
high-stakes verification, including joint proofs-of-concept with Deutsche Bank
and HSBC for advanced KYC solutions.

Ashwin Pampati, SVP and Head of Ecosystem
at Aptos Foundation, added:
“Reliable, high-performance blockchain infrastructure is essential for
nation-scale public-sector systems like DRISHTI, where data integrity, security
and auditability are non-negotiable. Aptos provides a strong blockchain
foundation that supports exactly these requirements.”

<description><![CDATA[ ●       
Generic Semaglutide Injection developed by
Orbicular receives Notice of Compliance from Health Canada — our second G-7
Approval by stringent regulatory authority (SRA) to greenlight the program
after the U.S. FDA’s Tentative Approval

●       
A fully indigenous Indian innovation: API, pen
device, formulation, manufacturing and analytical technology developed
end-to-end within India

Orbicular
Pharmaceutical Technologies Pvt. Ltd., a specialty pharmaceutical company
focused on complex generics and peptide-based therapeutics, today announced
that a generic version of Ozempic (semaglutide injection), developed in
partnership with Apotex, has received a Notice of Compliance (NOC) from Health
Canada. The product will be marketed and commercialized in Canada by Apotex Inc.,
the applicant of record and Canada’s largest pharmaceutical company.

The market
authorization covers two presentations — 2 mg / 3 mL (0.68 mg/mL) and 4
mg / 3 mL (1.34 mg/mL) — matching the concentration and fill-volume profile
of the reference product, which patients and prescribers in Canada are already
familiar with. This approval marks the Health Canada Notice of Compliance
issued for a generic semaglutide injection. With diagnosed diabetes affecting
an estimated 3.9 million Canadians and Canada recognised as the world’s
second-largest market for semaglutide, immediate availability is expected to be
a meaningful differentiator for patients, payers and the healthcare system.

Back-to-back G7
approvals — scientific rigor translated into delivery

The Health Canada NOC
follows the U.S. FDA’s Tentative Approval of the same program earlier this
year. Securing back-to-back authorizations from two of the world’s most
demanding regulators — for a product class where peptide stability, device
compatibility and analytical comparability have historically delayed generic
entry — underscores the scientific and quality robustness of Orbicular’s
program. Health Canada itself has noted that semaglutide is a complex synthetic
peptide whose generic versions must demonstrate equivalence in safety, efficacy
and quality without any differences that could affect those parameters — a bar
that has slowed the broader competitive field. The program reflects Orbicular’s
integrated development model, which combines advanced analytical capabilities,
deep peptide and process understanding, and disciplined regulatory execution to
bring technically complex products to global regulated markets.

Dr. M. S. Mohan, Managing Director, Orbicular
Pharmaceutical Technologies, said: “Receiving Notice of Compliance from
Health Canada, following the U.S. FDA&#039;s Tentative Approval, is a significant
milestone for Orbicular and reflects the depth of capability we have built in
complex peptide development. This outcome is driven by the strength, rigor, and
resilience of our teams, whose integrated approach across formulation,
analytics, and regulatory strategy enables us to convert complexity into speed
and certainty. It further validates our model of delivering high-value, IP-led
assets in challenging therapeutic segments. Peptides remain a strategic growth
area for Orbicular, with Semaglutide the first of several programs in our
pipeline targeted at global regulated markets. With commercial inventory in
place and Apotex as our market partner, we are well positioned to support
timely access for Canadian patients.”

Martin Arès, President, Apotex Canada and Rest
of World (ROW), said: “This approval reflects our Canadian
roots and our commitment to improving access to medicines. As a Canadian-based
global health company, we are proud to bring forward a high-quality, affordable
alternative that supports patients, prescribers, and the long-term
sustainability of our healthcare system. We look forward to bringing this
product to market in the very near future.”

<link>https://en.newsbolt.in/titan-debuts-divers-watch-collection-in-mumbai-at-khimani-watch-company</link>
<guid>https://en.newsbolt.in/titan-debuts-divers-watch-collection-in-mumbai-at-khimani-watch-company</guid>
<description><![CDATA[ Mumbai, May 4, 2026 : Titan, India’s leading watchmaker, has launched its Diver’s Watch
Collection in Mumbai, marking its entry into the performance-driven dive watch
category. The collection was introduced at Khimani Watch Company, a
well-established destination for watch enthusiasts in the city. This
association ensures that the collection is available through a trusted retail
destination with a strong understanding of the local watch market and its
consumers.

The Diver’s Collection is priced between
₹15,795 and ₹77,995 and comprises twelve models across four water-resistance
levels including 100m, 200m, 300m, and 500m offered in both quartz and
automatic variants. The range has been developed to address varied usage
contexts, from everyday aquatic activity to more demanding underwater
conditions, marking Titan’s entry into a segment defined by precision and
durability.

At the forefront of the lineup is the 500m
professional diver’s watch, representing Titan’s most advanced offering in this
category. Crafted from Grade 2 Titanium, the watch features the Aqua Lock
mechanism designed to prevent unintended bezel movement during dives. Each
piece is built in line with ISO 6425 standards, underscoring its credentials as
a purpose-built dive instrument. The watch also includes a sapphire
unidirectional bezel, helium escape valve, sapphire crystal with
anti-reflective coating, and Titan’s in-house 7AC0 automatic movement with a
40-hour power reserve.

Commenting on the launch, Atul Khimani, Owner,
Khimani Watch Company, said, “Over the past
few years, we’ve seen a clear shift in Mumbai toward watches that are backed by
strong engineering and purpose, not just design. Titan’s Diver’s Collection
enters at the right moment, offering credible dive specifications while
remaining versatile for everyday wear. It’s a category that has been gaining
interest, and this collection makes it far more accessible to a wider set of
consumers.”

Across the collection, Titan has combined
functionality with a distinctive design approach. The watches feature textured
gradient dials inspired by underwater depth, complemented by clean finishing
details and high-performance X1-C3 Swiss Super-LumiNova for enhanced
visibility. While the 300m and 500m variants are equipped with automatic
movements and advanced dive features, the 100m and 200m models focus on
reliability and ease of use through quartz precision and robust stainless steel
construction.

With this launch, Titan enters the
professional dive watch segment, presenting a collection that blends technical
performance with contemporary design for a new generation of watch enthusiasts. ]]></description>

<title>‘Nourish the Future’ strengthens maternal and child nutrition outcomes in Dantewada and Bastar through community&#45;led action</title>
<link>https://en.newsbolt.in/nourish-the-future-strengthens-maternal-and-child-nutrition-outcomes-in-dantewada-and-bastar-through-community-led-action</link>
<guid>https://en.newsbolt.in/nourish-the-future-strengthens-maternal-and-child-nutrition-outcomes-in-dantewada-and-bastar-through-community-led-action</guid>
<description><![CDATA[ Dantewada: Under its flagship Nourish the Future initiative, Rise Against
Hunger India organised a large-scale community engagement programme in
Katekalyan block of Dantewada district, Chhattisgarh, bringing together over
350 pregnant women, lactating mothers, Poshan Mitras, adolescents, and
community volunteers.

The initiative adopts a
community-led approach, where Community Resource Persons and local volunteers
drive planning, outreach, and service delivery. The initiative focused on
extending essential maternal and child health support to under-served populations
who fall outside the coverage of existing Community Kitchen Centers (CKCs). Despite
being newly introduced, the model received strong participation and acceptance
from local communities

A key focus of the programme has
been last-mile service delivery through convergence with government
departments, including health and ICDS. This collaboration has enhanced access
to ANC and PNC services, growth monitoring, and institutional delivery support,
ensuring that vulnerable populations are better connected to essential public
health systems.

The programme has resulted in
notable improvements across key indicators in Dantewada and Bastar, where
baseline levels were initially low. Maternal nutritional status (BMI,
weight-for-age, and haemoglobin levels) improved from 58.19% to 60.34%. Over
85% of women and 91% of children participating in growth monitoring reported
weight gain. The initiative also contributed to increased completion of recommended
ANC visits, strengthened referral and follow-up systems, and improved early
identification of high-risk cases. Additionally, the program facilitated 78
institutional deliveries.

As part of the programme, baby
care kits and mother care kits were distributed to support maternal and child
wellbeing. Mass level awareness programs organised through street plays in
local context. A convergence meeting was also organised with participation from
key government stakeholders, recognising the contributions of frontline
workers, Community Resource Persons, and volunteers in strengthening the
initiative.

Speaking on the occasion, Mr. Dola
Mohapatra, CEO, Rise Against Hunger India, emphasised the importance of
collective action: “Sustainable improvements in maternal and child nutrition
are only possible when communities lead the change and systems respond
effectively. Our approach integrates nutrition support with health services,
behaviour change, and community engagement to ensure long-term impact.”

The event concluded with a joint
commitment from community members, frontline workers, and government
representatives to further strengthen coordination and sustain the progress
achieved.

Nourish the Future is a signature
programme of Rise Against Hunger India, focused on improving maternal and child
health and nutrition during the first 1,000 days. Implemented across under-served
regions in Bihar, Jharkhand, Chhattisgarh, and Odisha, the programme continues
to bridge critical gaps in nutrition, healthcare access, and community
awareness through an integrated, outcome-driven approach.

The initiative
forms part of the organisation’s broader Hunger-Free Village
model, which seeks to ensure sustainable food security and aligns with its goal
of empowering communities to end hunger by 2030.

<title>Hebbevu Genetics Partners ACN Agropecuária at ExpoZebu, Marks First Indian Presence at ABCZ in 70 Years</title>
<link>https://en.newsbolt.in/hebbevu-genetics-partners-acn-agropecuaria-at-expozebu-marks-first-indian-presence-at-abcz-in-70-years</link>
<guid>https://en.newsbolt.in/hebbevu-genetics-partners-acn-agropecuaria-at-expozebu-marks-first-indian-presence-at-abcz-in-70-years</guid>
<description><![CDATA[ India, May 04, 2026 :
Hebbevu Genetics, a cattle genetics company driving productivity through
science-led breeding systems, has initiated a global collaboration with ACN
Agropecuária at ExpoZebu 2026, positioning India at the centre of a renewed
global focus on elite desi cattle genetics. The announcement was made at the
premises of ABCZ (Associação Brasileira dos Criadores de Zebu), marking the
first time in over 70 years that an Indian organisation has hosted a formal
engagement at the venue.

This collaboration brings together India, the
origin of Zebu cattle, and Brazil, known for its long-standing work in
scientific breeding, with a shared focus on advancing structured breeding
practices, strengthening indigenous bloodlines, and improving on-ground
outcomes for dairy farmers. The initiative is centred on knowledge exchange,
access to globally benchmarked breeding systems, and the integration of proven
genetic lines within Indian farm conditions.

Through this effort, Indian farmers will gain
exposure to performance-proven bloodlines such as Gir Leiteiro, Girolando,
Ongole, and Red Sindhi, alongside structured breeding approaches that focus on
consistency, reproductive efficiency, and long-term herd improvement. At the
same time, the collaboration creates a pathway for Indian-origin desi cow
genetics to gain wider global recognition as resilient, high-value genetic
resources suited for evolving climate and productivity needs.

The initiative addresses long-standing
challenges in India’s dairy ecosystem, including uneven milk yield and
fragmented breeding practices. By promoting structured breeding programs,
including the use of sex-sorted semen and advanced reproductive techniques such
as IVF and embryo transfer, the effort aims to make outcomes more predictable
and scalable at the farm level.

For farmers, the focus remains on improving
productivity, strengthening herd quality, and building long-term asset value
through more reliable and scientific breeding systems. The broader intent is to
move towards a more organised, systems-led approach where genetic potential is
effectively translated into real-world performance.

A spokesperson from Hebbevu Genetics said: “This
collaboration is about taking Indian desi cow genetics to global markets in a
structured and scalable way, while simultaneously transforming productivity at
the farm level. By introducing performance-proven bloodlines through structured
breeding programs, farmers can achieve multi-fold improvements in milk yield
under the right management conditions. At the same time, we are building direct
export pathways to position Indian genetics as a global asset.”

A representative from ACN Agropecuária added:“This
partnership creates a strong bridge between Indian-origin genetics and global
breeding systems, enabling long-term value creation across markets.”

In the coming months, the focus will be on
strengthening these exchange frameworks, validating breeding approaches under
Indian conditions, and expanding access for farmers. Over time, the initiative
aims to contribute to a more sustainable, productivity-led dairy ecosystem,
while reinforcing India’s position as a global leader in elite desi cattle
genetics.

This move reflects iNvent’s broader retail strategy making premium
Apple products more  accessible while
enhancing the in-store purchase experience with real, immediate value. 

Unlike typical launch promotions that rely only on
visibility, iNvent is focusing on conversion led retail, where pricing,
bundling, and timing come together to drive footfall and sales from  Day 1. 

Customers who pre-book will be among the first to collect
their devices at the Moti Nagar  store on
launch day, turning early adoption into a more rewarding, experience-led
purchase.

With Delhi NCR continuing to see strong demand for premium
tech, iNvent’s Moti Nagar store  is
positioned as a key addition to its expanding retail footprint bringing Apple’s
ecosystem  closer to consumers through a
mix of accessibility, experience, and value.

<title>Total Sports &amp;amp; Fitness expands footprint with Pune flagship store, eye’s India’s rising sports and fitness demand</title>

<description><![CDATA[ Pune,
May 2, 2026 : Total Sports &amp; Fitness,
India’s leading multi-brand sports and fitness retail chain, has announced the
launch of its flagship store in Pune, marking a strategic expansion into one of
the country’s fastest-growing sports, fitness and lifestyle markets. Located at
Rise Alta Prime Plaza, Bhumkar Chowk in Pimpri-Chinchwad, the new flagship
store is designed as a comprehensive destination for sports enthusiasts,
fitness seekers, and active lifestyle consumers, offering a curated range of
global and domestic brands under one roof.

The
Pune flagship store by Total Sports &amp; Fitness is designed as a
comprehensive destination for sports and fitness enthusiasts, bringing together
a wide range of equipment, gear, and active lifestyle products across
categories under one roof. Spread across 5000 sq. ft., the store offers
over 5,000+ unique products from 100+ leading brands, catering to
everyone from beginners to serious athletes. With a legacy dating back to 2003
and a growing base of over 6,00,000+ happy customers, the brand is focused
on delivering a truly complete shopping experience—where expert guidance,
product knowledge, and personalised assistance come together to replicate the
role of a trusted coach. The Pune store reflects this philosophy, combining
depth of assortment with a passionate, well-trained team to ensure every
customer finds the right solution for their fitness journey.

Commenting
on the launch, Niteen Shah, Founder &amp; Managing Director, Total Sports
&amp; Fitness, said “India’s fitness journey is at a pivotal inflection
point, where awareness is translating into action. As consumers become more
conscious about health and performance, there is a clear shift towards quality
products, guided experiences, and specialised retail environments. Our Pune
flagship store is designed to bridge this gap—bringing together global brands,
expert guidance, and a community-led approach under one roof.”

The
launch comes at a time when India’s fitness and sports retail ecosystem is
witnessing strong momentum. The country’s sports and fitness goods market,
valued at approximately USD 2.5 billion in 2025, is projected to grow to over
USD 4 billion by 2034, driven by rising health awareness, urbanisation, and
increasing disposable incomes. At a broader level, India’s fitness industry—currently
estimated at ₹16,200 crore—is expected to more than double by 2030, reflecting
a sustained shift towards preventive healthcare and active living.

Despite
this growth, penetration remains relatively low, with less than 1% of India’s
population actively engaged in organised fitness ecosystems—highlighting a
significant opportunity for organised retail players such as Total Sports to
shape consumer behaviour and access. Against this backdrop, Total Sports &amp;
Fitness is positioning itself as a key enabler in India’s evolving sports
retail landscape, moving beyond transactional retail to create a more
experiential and accessible ecosystem for consumers.

The
choice of Pune as a flagship market reflects its emergence as one of India’s
most dynamic fitness hubs, driven by a large base of young professionals,
students, and an increasingly health-conscious population. The city has
witnessed a sharp rise in participation across running, cycling, gym fitness,
and recreational sports, with community-led movements such as marathons. Pune
has evolved into a city where fitness is now a lifestyle. Coupled with strong
consumer spending in West India—which contributes over 30% of the country’s
sports and fitness goods market—Pune presents a compelling opportunity for organised,
experience-led sports retail.

Niteen
Shah further added “Our Pune flagship store is designed as more than just a
retail space—it’s an experience-led hub that reflects how consumer expectations
in sports and fitness are evolving. Today’s customers are looking for
personalised, immersive experiences, not just products, as fitness increasingly
becomes a part of everyday lifestyle. Through this store, we aim to enable
discovery, informed choices, and deeper engagement, while also building strong
connections with Pune’s vibrant sports and fitness community through local
collaborations and grassroots initiatives. Moreover, Pune has emerged as a
larger market than Mumbai for sports retail presenting a significant growth
opportunity for us.”

As
India’s fitness ecosystem continues to expand—from organised gyms and home
fitness to community sports and lifestyle-driven wellness—retail is expected to
play a critical role in shaping access, aspiration, and participation. With its
Pune flagship launch, Total Sports &amp; Fitness is looking to strengthen its
footprint in high-growth urban markets while contributing to the broader
evolution of India’s sports and fitness culture.

<title>From Early Criticism to Quiet Resilience: Suzzane’s Evolving Journey in Splitsvilla 16</title>
<link>https://en.newsbolt.in/from-early-criticism-to-quiet-resilience-suzzanes-evolving-journey-in-splitsvilla-16</link>
<guid>https://en.newsbolt.in/from-early-criticism-to-quiet-resilience-suzzanes-evolving-journey-in-splitsvilla-16</guid>
<description><![CDATA[ Mumbai: Reality television rarely
offers contestants the space to grow without scrutiny, and in MTV Splitsvilla
Season 16, Suzzane’s journey reflects exactly that tension between perception
and persistence.

 

Entering the show as one of the youngest contestants this
season, Suzzane initially found herself at the receiving end of criticism—both
within the villa and from sections of the audience. Early impressions painted
her as inexperienced, and her reserved demeanor was often misread as
indecisiveness in a format that rewards immediate impact.

However, as the episodes progressed, a different narrative began
to take shape.

 

Within the high-pressure environment of Splitsvilla, where
confrontations and alliances often define screen time, Suzzane was seen
navigating moments of isolation and, at times, being targeted in group dynamics
that bordered on exclusion. Despite this, she maintained a notable composure,
choosing restraint over reaction—an approach that set her apart in a space
driven by heightened emotions.

Rather than engaging in constant conflict, Suzzane appeared to
focus on understanding the dynamics of the game. Her strategy evolved
gradually, marked by selective participation in alliances and a clearer sense
of positioning as the competition advanced.

 

What makes her journey compelling is not dramatic dominance, but
quiet endurance. In a show where louder personalities often take center stage,
Suzzane’s measured responses and emotional control have started to reshape
audience perception. Conversations around her on social media increasingly
reflect a shift—from early criticism to acknowledgment of her resilience.

 

Her trajectory also highlights a broader aspect of reality
television: the tendency to form quick judgments, especially about younger
contestants. Suzzane’s experience underscores how narratives can change when
contestants are given time to adapt and assert themselves on their own terms.

As Splitsvilla 16 moves forward, Suzzane’s journey stands as a
reminder that not all strong gameplay is loud. Sometimes, it is the ability to
stay composed under pressure, absorb setbacks, and quietly recalibrate that
leaves a lasting impact.

 

In a format built on instant reactions, Suzzane’s  slow-burn evolution may well be her biggest
strength.

<description><![CDATA[ Mumbai,
May 02, 2026: Under the visionary leadership of Sukhraj
Nahar, President of CREDAI-MCHI, the association is
set to launch a first-of-its-kind initiative — Nahar Group presents the
CREDAI-MCHI First-Ever Property Exhibition exclusively for Channel Partners.

The
event will be held on Wednesday, 6th May 2026 at the iconic Jio World
Convention Centre, with expo timings from 10:30 AM to 8:00 PM.

This
pioneering platform has been conceptualized with a clear objective — to
strengthen the connection between developers and channel partners, who are the
true ambassadors of the real estate industry. Recognizing the growing
importance of channel partners in today’s dynamic market, CREDAI-MCHI aims to
create a focused, high-impact ecosystem that drives real business outcomes.

Adding
perspective on the initiative, Sukhraj Nahar, President, CREDAI-MCHI, said,
“This initiative is a significant step towards recognizing and empowering
channel partners, who play a pivotal role in the real estate ecosystem. By
creating a dedicated platform exclusively for them, we aim to facilitate direct
engagement with developers, accelerate deal closures, and unlock greater
business opportunities. This expo reflects our commitment to building a more
collaborative, efficient, and growth-oriented industry.”

Rushi
Mehta, Secretary, CREDAI-MCHI, added, “The concept of a channel
partner-exclusive expo is both timely and strategic. It allows us to streamline
interactions, improve conversion efficiency, and create a focused environment
where genuine business can take place. We believe this platform will not only
benefit channel partners but also help developers reach the right audience more
effectively.”

Unlike
traditional exhibitions, this expo is exclusively curated for channel partners,
ensuring meaningful interactions, faster decision-making, and higher conversion
opportunities. The event is expected to witness 5,000+ channel partners, along
with leading developers from across Mumbai and MMR, making it one of the most
powerful sales-driven platforms in the industry.

The
initiative is being held in association with National Association of Realtors
India and is supported by leading realtor and channel partners associations
across the Mumbai Metropolitan Region, reflecting strong industry-wide
alignment towards empowering the channel partner ecosystem.

Leading
Real estate brands participating in the expo include Nahar Group, Ajmera Realty
&amp; Infra, Rustomjee, GVP Realty, Supreme Universal, Sattva Group, Embassy
Developments Ltd., House of Hiranandani, Veena Group, Neelyog Group, Adani
Realty, Hubtown, Summit Woods, S Raheja Realty, Dosti Group, Marathon Realty, K
Raheja Corp, TGL, Viceroy Properties, Mehta Group, ID group, Romell Group, D
Kappor and many  more prominent
developers.

The
core purpose of the expo is to create strong business opportunities for channel
partners. They will get direct access to new project launches, high brokerage
opportunities, ready-to-close inventory, and exclusive deals at one place.
Participating developers are offering special benefits such as higher
brokerage, incentive slabs, faster payouts, and limited-period schemes,
enabling channel partners to close deals faster and grow their business.

To
avail these exclusive opportunities, channel partners are encouraged to visit
the expo. Entry to the expo is free for them; however, registration is
mandatory at www.mchichannelpartners.com.

This
initiative reinforces CREDAI-MCHI’s role as a catalyst between developers and
channel partners, ensuring that both sides benefit through structured
engagement and stronger collaboration.

In
the lead-up to the event, a Leadership Meet is scheduled with presidents and
secretaries of various channel partners associations along with CREDAI-MCHI
leadership. The meeting aims to further strengthen this initiative and explore
long-term collaboration opportunities to make such platforms even more
impactful in the future.

With
this landmark event, CREDAI-MCHI is setting a new benchmark in the real estate
industry by giving channel partners the recognition, access, and business
opportunities they truly deserve.

<description><![CDATA[  

Sydney, Australia: The Indian Overseas Congress (IOC) Australia continues
to expand its footprint and community impact under the leadership of its
President, Mr. Manoj Sheoran, who is driving a focused vision of unity,
service, and structured growth for the Indian diaspora across the country.

Over recent months, IOC Australia has emerged as a
proactive platform working closely with Indian-origin communities, students,
and professionals. Through consistent outreach and grassroots engagement, the
organization has been building strong connections and addressing the evolving
needs of the diaspora.

Mr. Manoj Sheoran’s leadership has been marked by a
clear emphasis on expansion and inclusivity. New chapters are being formed
across different regions of Australia, enabling wider participation and
stronger coordination at the community level.

As part of strengthening the youth wing, Mr. Manoj
Sheoran has appointed Mr. Gurjinder Singh Gavy as Indian Overseas Youth
Congress Australia Chairman.

Beyond structural growth, IOC Australia has been
actively involved in meaningful initiatives that go beyond traditional
engagement. These include:

students and new migrants in settling into Australian society

●      Promoting cultural identity
while encouraging integration within the broader community

●      Organizing community events
that foster unity and collaboration

empowered Indian community in Australia. We are focused on building long-term
structures that will continue to serve people and bring positive change.”

<title>Envu India Supports National Conclave Uniting India&amp;apos;s Public Health Leadership to  Advance Urban Vector&#45;Borne Disease Control</title>
<link>https://en.newsbolt.in/envu-india-supports-national-conclave-uniting-indias-public-health-leadership-to-advance-urban-vector-borne-disease-control</link>
<guid>https://en.newsbolt.in/envu-india-supports-national-conclave-uniting-indias-public-health-leadership-to-advance-urban-vector-borne-disease-control</guid>
<description><![CDATA[ Two-day scientific conclave,
organised by the Indian Society for Malaria and Other Communicable
Diseases  (ISMOCD) in collaboration with
Ahmedabad Municipal Corporation (AMC), examines advances in urban pest  management and charts a science-led path
forward for India&#039;s cities. 

01st May 2026 | Ahmedabad: A national technical conclave on advances in urban pest
management and vector control  concluded
in Ahmedabad on 28 April 2026, bringing together senior public health leaders,
government officials, armed  forces
medical specialists, and scientific institutions for two days of focused
scientific exchange. The conclave addressed 
the growing burden of dengue, malaria, and chikungunya in India&#039;s
rapidly expanding cities, and the need for systematic,  evidence-based, integrated strategies to
manage them effectively. 

Organised by the Indian
Society for Malaria and Other Communicable Diseases (ISMOCD) in
collaboration with  Ahmedabad
Municipal Corporation (AMC) and supported by Envu India, the
conclave drew participants from national 
and state public health programmes, the Armed Forces Medical College
(AFMC), Pune, academic institutions, and 
international scientific contributors. Sessions covered the epidemiology
of dengue, malaria, and chikungunya in 
Ahmedabad&#039;s urban setting; advances in surveillance, including
ovitrap-based monitoring with AI-assisted analysis; the  WHO-aligned Integrated Vector Management
framework; the Urban Malaria Scheme and National Urban Health Mission;  preparedness for vector-borne disease control
during mass-gathering events; and some innovations in public health  insecticides. Envu contributed an international
perspective on integrated urban vector management, drawing on  experience from the iDEM (Integrated Dengue
Epidemiology and Management) programme in Malaysia. 

Envu India&#039;s support for this
conclave is grounded in a conviction the company holds about the significant
opportunity to  advance mosquito control
in Indian cities. Research by the Centre for Science and Environment (CSE),
India, found that  the standard
municipal thermal fogging mixture is 95 per cent diesel and 5 per cent
insecticide, with Delhi alone  estimated
to consume 4.5 lakh litres of diesel in a single fogging season, comparable to
the daily fuel use of over 2,000  cars.
The WHO&#039;s guidance on Integrated Vector Management recommends going
further: addressing larvae and  interrupting
the breeding cycle for sustained, measurable impact, rather than relying on
adult mosquito knockdown  alone. Envu
believes Indian cities are ready for that more complete approach, and offers
water-based, WHO Pre-Qualified  vector
control formulation combined with safer larvicidal solutions that make it
possible. Envu welcomes engagement  from
public health authorities, urban local bodies, and state vector control
programmes on what that transition could 
mean in practice for their city or district.  

&quot;Vector-borne diseases,
caused by viruses, bacteria, and parasites, account for over 17% of infectious
diseases globally,  all transmitted
through vectors. India has made remarkable progress in controlling these diseases.
Malaria deaths have  declined from eight
lakh annually at independence to just 83 in 2023. Kala-azar cases dropped from
9,241 in 2014 to  449 in 2024, nearing
elimination, while over 100 districts have eliminated lymphatic filariasis as a
public health  problem. Dengue mortality
has also reduced significantly. These achievements reflect India&#039;s sustained
commitment to  disease control,&quot;
said Padma Shri Prof. Dr. Aditya Prasad Dash, former Vice Chancellor,
Central University of Tamil  Nadu, and
former WHO Adviser. 

He added, &quot;India aims to
eliminate malaria, lymphatic filariasis, and kala-azar by 2030. Achieving this,
especially in  urban areas, requires
stronger collaboration among scientific institutions, government bodies, and
municipal agencies.  Growing partnerships
between academia, industry, and research organisations in innovation,
technology transfer, and  policy are key
to this effort. Strengthening such collaborations will be critical for
achieving India&#039;s Sustainable 
Development Goals.&quot; 

Dr. Bhavin Solanki, Medical
Officer of Health, Ahmedabad Municipal Corporation, said, &quot;Ahmedabad Municipal 
Corporation has always believed that public health outcomes improve when
institutions invest in the right science, the 
right partnerships, and the right people. Our vector control teams are
trained, equipped, and committed to adopting 
approaches that deliver real, measurable results for the communities we
serve. The scientific inputs and global 

experience
that Envu brought to this conclave added meaningful depth to the discussions
and helped broaden our  perspective on
integrated vector management. Conclaves like this one, which bring together
national scientific  expertise,
government experience, and industry knowledge, considerably strengthen that
work. We look forward to  continuing to
build on the collaborations that have emerged from this platform.&quot;  

M. Arun
Kumar, Managing Director, Envu India, said, &quot;India&#039;s cities are at the centre of the vector-borne
disease risks,  and this conclave brought
the right people into this conversation at exactly the right time. As a
company, our  commitment goes beyond
supporting events like this. We believe the way mosquito control is practised
in Indian cities  today has room to
advance, and Envu is here for the long term, alongside India&#039;s public health
institutions, to help make  that
happen.&quot; ]]></description>

<title>Pune Leads the Way with Launch of City Chapter for Mental Health Action</title>

<guid>https://en.newsbolt.in/pune-leads-the-way-with-launch-of-city-chapter-for-mental-health-action</guid>
<description><![CDATA[ Pune,
May 01, 2026 : The first meeting to
launch the Pune City Chapter of the Policymakers’ Forum on Mental Health was
convened at the ILS Conference Room, ILS Law College, bringing together leaders
from government, public health, academia, and civil society. Organised by the Centre
for Mental Health Law &amp; Policy (CMHLP) and ETI Services, the convening
marked a key step toward building a city-led model for mental health action.

The
session was led under the guidance of Smt. Vandana Chavan, former Member of
Parliament and former Mayor of Pune. She welcomed the Honourable leadership and
dignitaries of the Pune Municipal Corporation, elected representatives, and
stakeholders, while acknowledging Dr. Mohan Agashe for his contributions in the
mental health space as a former advisor to the Government of Maharashtra.

The
meeting was also attended by Shri Naval Kishore, (Municipal Commissioner, PMC),
Shri Shrinath Bhimale (Honourable Chairman, Standing Committee, PMC), Shri
Sanjiv Wavare, Assistant Medical Officer of Health, Pune Municipal Corporation,
whose leadership was central to bringing the conversation together, Dr. Mohan
Agashe (Former Advisor, Govt. of Maharashtra on Mental Health Education and
Service) along with many representatives from civil society and technical
experts.  The session included a
presentation by Mr. Arjun Kapoor (CMHLP) and Dr. Sukriti Chauhan (ETI
Services), outlining the data landscape, policy frameworks, and actionable
pathways for Pune.

Shri
Naval Kishore, Municipal Commissioner, Pune Municipal Corporation, in his
address said:

“The
social environment we build shapes how people think and respond. Mental health
is not limited to hospitals; we must strengthen ecosystems both within and
beyond them. This is an area where the PMC is committed to act.”

Shri
Shrinath Bhimale, Chairman, Standing Committee, Pune Municipal Corporation
added:

“We
are working on initiatives such as ‘Pink Rooms’ for adolescent girls and
improving the quality of government hospitals. We are committed to supporting
efforts that advance suicide prevention and mental wellbeing in the city.”

Smt.
Vandana Chavan addressing the gathering threw light on how;

“Pune,
as a city of young people and institutions, is uniquely positioned to lead this
effort. While India has made progress, the challenge before us is to translate
policy into coordinated, on-ground action. This meeting aims to bring the power
of local leadership together to shape practical solutions to the issue at hand
today,” she said.

Speaking
at the event, Dr. Mohan Agashe, Former Advisor noted:

“What
institutions need is strong motivation and sustained effort. Mental health
policy must remain independent of political cycles. Education and health
require long-term commitment, and every individual has a right to access care.”

Dr.
Sukriti Chauhan, CEO, ETI Services, emphasised:

“We
are no longer dealing with isolated incidents, this is a systemic crisis
unfolding across our schools, institutions and communities. If we don’t embed
mental health into everyday governance now, we risk failing an entire
generation asking to be heard and supported.”

Arjun
Kapoor, Co-Director and Senior Research Fellow, Centre for Mental Health Law
&amp; Policy, Indian Law Society mentioned

“Youth
mental health and suicide prevention in schools, colleges, workplaces and the
broader community requires cross-sectoral interventions and action. With its
vibrant youth population, Pune has become an economic and educational hub. In
collaboration with city leadership and wider civil society, the city stands to
become national model of effectively embedding mental health in all aspects of
social, health and economic development.”

The
discussion focused on feasible, city-level interventions, including awareness
campaigns, strengthened counselling systems, school-based programmes, and
cross-sector partnerships. The Pune Chapter aims to serve as a pilot for a
scalable model, demonstrating how municipal leadership can drive integrated
mental health action across systems. ]]></description>

<title>With Prada, LIDCOM Puts Kolhapuri inspired Indian Craft on Global Fashion Luxury Map</title>
<link>https://en.newsbolt.in/with-prada-lidcom-puts-kolhapuri-inspired-indian-craft-on-global-fashion-luxury-map</link>
<guid>https://en.newsbolt.in/with-prada-lidcom-puts-kolhapuri-inspired-indian-craft-on-global-fashion-luxury-map</guid>
<description><![CDATA[ Global luxury house Prada, on Monday
launched its Limited Edition Collection of Sandals inspired by the Indian
Kolhapuri Chappals, across 40 select Prada stores worldwide and on its
e-commerce platform as a part of it’s ‘PRADA Made in India x Inspired by Kolhapuri
Chappals’ project. Manufactured in India by artisans from Maharashtra and
Karnataka — the heartland of traditional Kolhapuri handcraft — the launch marks
more than a commercial milestone.

“It is a moment of global
recognition for a centuries-old Indian craft, and for the institution that has
worked for decades to protect, promote and dignify it” said Smt. Prerna
Deshbhratar, IAS, Managing Director, of ‘Sant Rohidas Leather Industries and
Charmakar Development Corporation’ — better known as LIDCOM — which was
established on 1 May 1974 under the Social Justice Department of Maharashtra,
with mandate to protect the dignity and livelihood of Maharashtra’s leather
artisan communities.

One of LIDCOM’s best product, the
Kolhapuri chappal is a living tradition — carried, refined and passed down by
generations of artisans. Notably, it has received GI tagging in 2009 — a
distinction that underscores the scale of LIDCOM’s achievement.

Maharashtra’s Chief Minister Shri.
Devendra Fadnavis described the launch as a moment of national pride, – “This
global launch Inspired by the Indian Kolhapuri Chappals”is a proud moment for
Maharashtra and for India. Born in the hands of Maharashtra’s leather artisan
community and protected by LIDCOM, the Kolhapuri chappal is now a global luxury
fashion product showcased in 40 Prada stores worldwide. This is Maharashtra
showing the world what ‘Made in India’ truly means.”

The collaboration extends well
beyond the limited-edition collection. As part of the agreement, Prada will
fully fund a three-year structured training programme at the National Institute
of Fashion Technology (NIFT) and the Karnataka Institute of Leather and Fashion
Technology (KILT) — building the design and technical skills of artisans whose
craft has already proven itself on the world stage. The finest among them will
go further: selected for advanced training at Prada&#039;s own Academy in Italy.

As rightly said by Shri. Sanjay
Shirsat, Minister of Social Justice and Special Assistance, Maharashtra –
“Today, the hard work of our artisans and their traditional craft has received
real respect. Kolhapuri chappals are not just footwear — they are the pride of
our land. Social justice means giving people strength to stand on their own and
honouring their labour”. In his message to the artisans, he added: “This honour
— this pride — comes from your hard work, your sweat, and your tradition. We
are truly happy that this craft has now reached the world stage. The respect
for our people has gone across the world.”

Those familiar with the
collaboration say the credit for the partnership belongs firmly to LIDCOM — the
institutional backbone that identified the opportunity, brokered the
conversation, and structured every clause to keep artisan welfare at its core.
“There was meticulous planning behind this collaboration. Things were not easy,
given the involvement of a global brand like Prada, international laws, and the
wider canvas of our global relations. All of this had to be factored into the
negotiations — while always keeping in mind the rightful ownership of the
intellectual property of generations of our artisans.”— says Dr. Harshadeep
Kamble, IAS, Principal Secretary, Ministry of Social Justice and Special
Assistance

The partnership between Prada and
LIDCOM crystallised in the months following an online backlash over the
Kolhapuri-inspired leather sandals shown at Prada’s Spring 2026 menswear
presentation. The collection featured sandals bearing an unmistakable
resemblance to the GI-tagged Kolhapuri chappal. Prada issued a statement. Then
it did something more meaningful: it sent a delegation to Kolhapur, to LIDCOM&#039;s
facility, to the hands that had been making this craft long before any runway
discovered it.

After several rounds of detailed
discussions led by Smt. Deshbhratar, a Memorandum of Understanding was signed
between Prada and LIDCOM at the Consulate General of Italy in Mumbai. She
subsequently travelled to Italy for further negotiations, paving the way for
the collaboration in its current form. As she

puts it “This collaboration will
enable the sustainable global positioning of our traditional craftsmanship,
fostering cross-cultural design dialogue and long-term value for artisans.”The
operative phrase is long-term value for artisans — a commitment LIDCOM received
from Prada as a non-negotiable condition of the partnership.

For India’s craft sector, the LIDCOM
model offers a powerful lesson: protect the craft, build institutional
credibility, negotiate from strength, and keep artisan welfare non-negotiable.
This is what makes the partnership meaningful. ]]></description>

entrepreneurship. It explores the loneliness, discipline, responsibility, fear,
and quiet strength required to build something meaningful from the ground up.

struggles entrepreneurs often face while choosing a difficult path and staying

calm endurance, restraint, and integrity—making it a powerful read for
entrepreneurs and anyone creating their own path in life.

10. When Gods Created
Us by Manya Jha

When Gods Created Us
is a mythological-philosophical work that explores what was originally placed
within human beings, what civilization gradually taught them to forget, and why
that forgetting matters today. Through the recurring presence of a cosmic
council, the book traces the evolution of human consciousness—awareness,
instinct, emotion, curiosity, compassion, imagination, courage, and
purpose—before logic, systems, and external structures began to dominate human
identity. It does not present myth as fantasy or technology as an enemy;
instead, it uses both to ask a deeper question: what truly makes us human in an
age where artificial intelligence can calculate, predict, and analyze? The book
argues that humanity was never designed merely to survive, perform, compete, or
outthink its own inventions, but to awaken to the full depth of the mind it
carries. Serious, reflective, and timely, When Gods Created Us invites
readers to rediscover the wisdom, compassion, meaning, and inner architecture
that remain at the heart of being human.

All the books featured

<title>The Keshav Konnect Season 2: Inside the lives of India’s Next&#45;Gen Family Business Leaders</title>

<guid>https://en.newsbolt.in/the-keshav-konnect-season-2-inside-the-lives-of-indias-next-gen-family-business-leaders</guid>
<description><![CDATA[ National, 1st May 2026 : Earning
the trust of experienced hands is a struggle every next-generation leader  in a family business knows too well. The
Keshav Konnect Season 2, going on air from 1st May 2026, sets  out to unravel exactly this. Keshav
Maheshwari, a second-generation entrepreneur and scion of ALLEN  Career Institute - one of India’s most
respected career coaching institutions - engages with next generation leaders
as they share their journeys and boardroom insights.

Unlike conventional business interviews, The
Keshav Konnect Season 2 moves away from metrics and  milestones to delve into the lives of
next-generation leaders. It spotlights the years spent proving  themselves before being recognised, the
weight of legacy, and how they carved unique spaces for  themselves. Each episode is an unfiltered
conversation, offering a window into the distinctive mindset of  India’s young business scions.

Speaking about the series, Keshav
Maheshwari, host and the mind behind The Keshav Konnect, said: “There are
many conversations around first-time entrepreneurs - how they build, the
challenges they face,  and how they
navigate different situations. However, despite the significant contribution of
family  businesses to India’s GDP,
conversations around next-generation leaders and how they chart their  journeys remain few and far between. Through
this series, I want to bring a first-hand account from these  leaders on what it truly means to lead a
family business and transform it from the inside. I am confident  the series will add value not just to those
within family businesses, but also to first-time entrepreneurs,  as these are deeply personal journeys -
highlighting real challenges, learnings, and triumphs.”

About Keshav Maheshwari:

Keshav Maheshwari is the Managing Director of
ALLEN Career Institute Overseas and a second-generation  entrepreneur from the family behind one of
India’s most respected education brands. With experience  across startups, multinationals, and now
leading international operations, he brings a blend of inherited  wisdom and fresh thinking. His leadership is
defined by purpose, agility, and empathy - focused on making  legacy institutions future-ready while
preserving their core values. Keshav represents the voice of a new generation
leader redefining what it means to build on inheritance. ]]></description>

“My
travels have inspired me. Whether it’s singing or acting, I’ve soaked in so
much from places I’ve visited. I believe travel and food and joy must be
shared. And to share my travel stories with millions of radio listeners on “Get

Ramesh
Menon, CEO, Fever Network said: 

“The
continued love that Get Some Sun receives from listeners across the country is
a testament to the enduring appeal of travel storytelling on radio. What makes
this property truly special is how it goes beyond destinations to create a

<title>Meet the 17&#45;Year&#45;Old Behind a USD 2.8 Million Deal at AVP Industries Private Limited &#45; Saachi Pasari, she is now set to launch her own Fashion Brand Hangover</title>
<link>https://en.newsbolt.in/meet-the-17-year-old-behind-a-usd-28-million-deal-at-avp-industries-private-limited-saachi-pasari-she-is-now-set-to-launch-her-own-fashion-brand-hangover</link>
<guid>https://en.newsbolt.in/meet-the-17-year-old-behind-a-usd-28-million-deal-at-avp-industries-private-limited-saachi-pasari-she-is-now-set-to-launch-her-own-fashion-brand-hangover</guid>
<description><![CDATA[ Mumbai,
India: In a fashion industry where legacy is often
inherited but influence is earned over time, 17-year-old Saachi Pasari is fast
emerging as a force who embodies both. With a sharp instinct for design, a
global cultural lens, and an ability to translate observation into impact, she
represents a new generation that is not waiting in the wings but actively
reshaping the narrative.

Raised
within the ecosystem of AVP Industries Private Limited, Saachi’s understanding
of business has been deeply immersive rather than traditionally academic. Her
early exposure to international environments from Hill Spring International
School in Mumbai to Fettes College in Edinburgh, shaped a worldview rooted in
cultural fluidity, independence, and creative curiosity. Now studying at DSB
International School, she continues to bridge formal education with hands-on
industry experience.

Inside
AVP Industries, Saachi has moved beyond observation to contribution. Beginning
with the men’s apparel division, she has been involved in design selection and
visual direction, bringing a distinct perspective that blends global influences
with a sharp understanding of the Indian consumer. Her approach reflects an
intuitive grasp of both aesthetics and market demand, an ability that is
increasingly rare, and even more so at her age. That instinct has already
translated into tangible business outcomes. In a significant milestone, Saachi
played a key role in supporting a $2.8 million international deal alongside her
father, Abhishek Vinod Pasari, Founder and Director of AVP Industries,
expanding the company’s presence across South American markets including Panama
and Mexico. The moment marks not just early exposure to global business, but
meaningful participation in it.

About
AVP Industries Private Limited

Operating
at the intersection of fashion, manufacturing, and global distribution, AVP
Industries Pvt. Ltd. has steadily positioned itself as a trusted partner for
both established and emerging brands. Under the leadership of Abhishek Vinod
Pasari, the company has built a reputation for delivering design-led,
high-quality apparel at scale, serving both domestic and international markets.
With a strong infrastructure and a deep understanding of evolving consumer
preferences, AVP Industries seamlessly integrates global trends with local
sensibilities. Its capabilities span private labels, brand collaborations, and
product innovation, while supporting an ecosystem that empowers over 3,500
livelihoods across India. As it expands its global footprint, the company
continues to focus on craftsmanship, efficiency, and long-term value creation.

Now,
Saachi Pasari is stepping into a space of her own. She is currently developing
Hangover, an independent fashion venture that aims to carve a niche in
elevated, high-quality party wear, an underserved segment in the Indian market.
Conceived as a reflection of her personal aesthetic and cultural perspective,
the brand signals a shift from participation to authorship. At 17, Saachi
Pasari is not simply part of the next generation of fashion, she is part of the
reason it is evolving. Her journey underscores a larger industry movement: one
where youth is no longer synonymous with potential alone, but with presence,
perspective, and power.

<description><![CDATA[ A
joint initiative to train underprivileged youth, as certified Solar PV
Installers in Najafgarh, Delhi

New
Delhi, India, April 30, 2026  : Sungrow, the global leading PV inverter and
energy storage system provider, has collaborated with the Centre for CSR &amp;
Sustainability Excellence (CCSE), the social arm of Fiinovation, to launch a
Solar PV Installer Training Programme in Najafgarh, New Delhi. This initiative,
under Sungrow’s Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) mandate, aims to empower
underprivileged youth with technical skills and create green employment
opportunities in India’s growing solar sector.

The
partnership signing ceremony was officially held at the Fiinovation’s Delhi
office. Representatives in attendance included Mr. Varun Haritash from Sungrow,
Mr. Debopam Mukherjee and Mr. Diwan Faiz from CCSE, as well as Father George
and Mr. Pardeep Jindal from Don Bosco Tech Society.

Targeting
youth aged 18 to 30 from economically weaker sections – including women and
those without formal education – the programme will deliver 360 hours of
structured training per batch (30 participants) in Najafgarh, with outreach
extending to peri-urban and rural areas of South-West Delhi. The curriculum
covers solar PV installation, system operations, and maintenance, aligned with
national skill standards and complemented by practical field exposure,
certification, and placement support. A core target is to achieve at least 70%
employment or self-employment for participants within 3–6 months of course
completion.

As
part of its CSR commitment, the initiative focuses on expanding access to
industry-relevant vocational training, enabling inclusive livelihood
opportunities, and building a skilled workforce to support India’s transition
to clean energy. By prioritizing underserved communities, the programme aims to
bridge opportunity gaps and create pathways for sustainable income and
long-term economic mobility.

 “At Sungrow, we believe that the shift to
clean energy must also create real opportunities for  communities. Varun Haritash, Senior
Manager-Marketing at Sungrowskilled workforce that can meaningfully contribute
to India’s solar sector while improving livelihoods for those who need it
most.”

—
Mr. Varun Haritash, Senior Manager-Marketing at Sungrow India

With
a strong track record in CSR implementation spanning livelihood, health,
education, and environmental sustainability, CCSE contributes a structured,
outcome-driven methodology to the initiative. It is responsible for monitoring,
tracking progress and delivering measurable results across the programme cycle.

“Skill
development in the clean energy sector is no longer an aspiration — it is a
present-day need. Through this collaboration, we are creating meaningful
opportunities for young people who have historically been outside the formal
economy. Our focus is on outcomes that extend well beyond the duration of the
programme.”

— Debopam Mukherjee,
CCSE – Centre for CSR &amp; Sustainability Excellence

On
the ground, the programme is being implemented in partnership with Don Bosco
Tech Society, a nationally recognized organization with extensive experience in
vocational training and youth skilling initiatives across India. With a strong
track record in delivering industry-aligned training programmes and
facilitating employment linkages, Don Bosco Tech Society will support
beneficiary mobilization, community outreach, and local implementation of the
project.

“Quality
vocational training must be both accessible and aligned with industry demand.
Through this initiative, we aim to equip young people with practical skills and
connect them to real employment opportunities in the growing solar sector.”

—
Father George, Executive Director, Don Bosco Tech Society

India’s
solar energy sector has expanded considerably over the past decade, driven by
national policy targets and growing private investment. Yet the availability of
trained technicians at the grassroots level continues to lag behind industry
demand. This initiative directly addresses that gap by building a pool of
certified solar installers from communities that are geographically close to
the work but have had limited access to formal training.

By
combining the industry expertise of Sungrow, the implementation capabilities of
CCSE, and the grassroots reach of Don Bosco Tech Society, the initiative
creates a scalable model for skill-based livelihood generation in India’s clean
energy sector. ]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[ Mumbai : People have fallen victim to
stress and are unable to live life to the fullest. Amidst these circumstances,
Director Adhish Rana makes a remarkable film, &quot;Jeena Dil Se&quot;. The
film acts like a true friend—one who makes you laugh when you are stressed and
reminds you that life isn&#039;t quite as serious as we often perceive it to be.
This sentiment is perfectly encapsulated in the film&#039;s tagline: “Zindagi chhoti
hai… tension badi kyun?” or the line
“Serious hone ka nahi… haske jeene ka!

 

&quot;Jeena Dil Se&quot; is scheduled to be released in theaters
on May 29th, 2026. The film&#039;s teaser has received an excellent response, and
the movie&#039;s song, &quot;Madhubala,&quot; is becoming immensely popular. Lakhs
of people are watching Kriti Verma&#039;s spectacular dance performance in this item
number. The song has been sung by Soumee Sailesh. You can watch this fantastic
song by clicking on the link provided below.

The film beautifully weaves together humor, emotion, and
relatable life experiences—making it particularly relevant to today&#039;s youth. It
encourages audiences to pause, laugh at life&#039;s ups and downs, and savor the
journey itself rather than focusing solely on the destination.

While romantic films typically feature a higher number of songs,
&quot;Jeena Dil Se&quot; stands apart from conventional comedies by also
serving as a spectacular musical film; it features six magnificent tracks that
add vibrant color and depth to the narrative. Featuring a cast of over 15
talented actors, the film is packed with powerful performances, impeccable
comic timing, and memorable dialogues.The Title song of the movie, sung by the
maestro Javed Ali &amp; beautifully penned by the legendary Amardeep Rana truly
describes and fully justifies the storyline.

 

The film is directed by Adhish Rana, a filmmaker whose journey
began in childhood with frequent visits to the theater and a deep-seated love
for Bollywood classics. For him, &quot;Jeena Dil Se&quot; is not merely a film;
it is a passion project born from years of cinematic devotion. From renting
DVDs to studying global storytelling styles, the director brings a unique
perspective that shines through in every single frame of this film. Filmmaker
Adhish Rana states, &quot;‘Jeena Dil Se’ is not merely a film; it is an
emotion! My objective is to convey a message to the audience regarding the
importance of friendship and the pursuit of happiness. This film is very close
to my heart because it beautifully blends two genres—comedy and romance. Based
on a true story set in Haryana, North India, the film aims to resonate with
today&#039;s youth. Its excellent dialogues, musical album, and social message set
it apart from the rest.&quot;

 

Shot across the beautiful and culturally rich landscapes of
Haryana, the film&#039;s most memorable moment was filming at the renowned Brahma
Sarovar Aarti in Kurukshetra. With its exceptional script, impeccable comic
timing, and a heartwarming storyline, &quot;Jeena Dil Se&quot; is poised to
carve a special place for itself in the hearts of the audience.

 

The film&#039;s music has been composed by Rahul Jain, Prashant
Ingole, and Vishal-Akash (Dhaneliya Brothers), while the beautiful songs have
been voiced by Shreya Ghoshal, Armaan Malik, Javed Ali, Asees Kaur, and Saumee
Shailesh. The lyrics have been penned by Amardeep, Prashant Ingole, Arafat
Mahmood, and Kunaal Verma.

 

The film&#039;s notable cast members include Lakshya Handa, Abhishek
Singh, Yash Purohit, Tejender Singh, Kunal Chhabra, Ruma Sharma, Shradhha
Joshi, Deeksha Sooryavanshi, Kiara Diwan, Shivani Wazir, Kanchan Singh, Mehak
