The Sansad MSME Conclave was successfully organized in the Mumbai North West Parliamentary Constituency with the objective of strengthening, supporting, and empowering the Micro, Small and Medium Enterprises (MSME) sector. The conclave witnessed the enthusiastic participation of over 200 MSME entrepreneurs, industry professionals, start-ups, and business owners representing diverse sectors such as manufacturing, services, trade, logistics, food processing, textiles, and emerging digital enterprises.

The conclave served as a comprehensive platform to address the evolving needs and challenges of MSMEs while creating awareness about policy initiatives, institutional support, and growth opportunities available to entrepreneurs. MSMEs, often referred to as the backbone of the Indian economy, contribute significantly to employment generation, innovation, exports, and inclusive economic development. Recognizing this vital role, the Sansad MSME Conclave was conceptualized to facilitate meaningful engagement between entrepreneurs, policymakers, financial institutions, and industry experts.

A key highlight of the event was the in-depth discussion on various Government of India schemes and initiatives aimed at promoting MSMEs. Participants were informed about credit facilities, collateral-free loans, interest subvention schemes, subsidies, export promotion policies, digital compliance, GST facilitation, and government procurement opportunities through platforms such as GeM. Special emphasis was laid on encouraging small businesses to formalize their operations, adopt digital tools, and improve competitiveness in both domestic and global markets.

Experts and resource persons shared valuable insights on ease of doing business, access to finance, technology adoption, skill development, innovation, and sustainability. Entrepreneurs were guided on how to overcome common hurdles such as limited capital, regulatory compliance, market access, and scalability challenges. The interactive sessions enabled MSME owners to raise queries, seek clarifications, and receive practical, solution-oriented advice tailored to their business needs.

The conclave also played an important role in fostering networking and collaboration among MSME stakeholders. Entrepreneurs had the opportunity to interact with peers, explore business partnerships, exchange best practices, and build long-term professional relationships. Such networking is expected to enhance supply-chain linkages, encourage local sourcing, and promote collective growth within the MSME ecosystem.

Speaking at the conclave, the organizers highlighted that strengthening MSMEs is essential for achieving the vision of a self-reliant India. They emphasized that initiatives like the Sansad MSME Conclave help bridge the information gap and ensure that government policies and benefits reach grassroots entrepreneurs in an effective and transparent manner. By creating direct channels of communication, the conclave empowers entrepreneurs to take informed decisions and leverage available institutional support.

Participants expressed strong appreciation for the initiative, describing the conclave as timely, informative, and highly impactful. Many MSME owners noted that the availability of consolidated information under one platform saved time and provided clarity on multiple schemes and processes. Several entrepreneurs also shared that the guidance received during the conclave would help them expand operations, generate employment, and improve financial sustainability.

The Sansad MSME Conclave was sponsored and supported by various sponsors and partner organizations, whose generous contribution and cooperation played a crucial role in the successful execution of the event. The support from sponsors enabled seamless arrangements, quality sessions, and greater outreach to MSME stakeholders. The organizers extended heartfelt gratitude to all sponsors, partners, experts, and volunteers for their unwavering support and commitment towards MSME development.

Beyond knowledge sharing, the conclave reinforced the importance of inclusive growth, entrepreneurship, and local economic development within the Mumbai North West Parliamentary Constituency. By empowering MSMEs, the initiative contributes to job creation, skill enhancement, and the strengthening of local industries, thereby supporting overall socio-economic progress.

The conclave concluded with a strong commitment from the organizers to continue engaging with MSME entrepreneurs through similar platforms in the future. Such initiatives will further strengthen the MSME ecosystem, encourage innovation, and align grassroots enterprises with national economic priorities.

The Sansad MSME Conclave stands as a significant step towards building a resilient, competitive, and future-ready MSME sector, reaffirming the collective resolve to support entrepreneurs and drive sustainable economic growth in Mumbai North west and beyond.

Key highlights of the AI Horizons project include:

  • 270 researchers across 36 countries
  • 21 strategic sessions
  • 32 expert interviews
  • Findings published in Russian and English.

At AI Journey 2025, Prof. Dr. Ajith Abraham was invited to speak on the high-profile “Future with AI” Presidential Panel moderated by Herman Gref, CEO of Sberbank, and featuring global AI leaders with participation from President Vladimir Putin.

In his address, Prof. Abraham emphasized the need for:

– A globally coordinated scientific strategy for AI

– Ethical, explainable, and human-centered AI development

– Integration of AI with neuroscience, sustainability, and emerging technologies

– International partnerships as a driver of safe and responsible AI innovation

Drawing from the AI Horizons global foresight study, he highlighted future AI systems that will be agentic, context-aware, computationally efficient, and anchored in cognitive and symbolic reasoning.

Prof. Abraham also underscored India’s growing leadership through the IndiaAI Mission and the broader Viksit Bharat 2047 vision, reaffirming the country’s position as a global talent hub for AI research and innovation.

“The future of AI is not merely technological — it is human-centered, ethically grounded, interdisciplinary, and shaped through global cooperation.”

Dehradun (Uttarakhand) [India], September 3: Continuing its journey of fostering dialogue within the design community, Sirca Paints India Ltd. hosted an exclusive Architects’ Meet in Dehradun on 25th August, 2025. The gathering created a thoughtful space for architects and interior designers to exchange ideas on material innovation, design narratives, and the evolving role of finishes in shaping contemporary practice.

Recognized for its Italian wood coatings and OIKOS wall textures, Sirca has always stood for excellence in finish and a sensitivity to design intent. The Dehradun meet carried forward this ethos, presenting Sirca not merely as a brand of products but as a trusted partner to design professionals, engaging directly with the conversations that define today’s architecture and interiors.

Set within the serene backdrop of Dehradun, the evening unfolded as a blend of networking and exploration, marked by open dialogue and meaningful interactions. Rather than a conventional showcase, the event highlighted collaboration, encouraging participants to engage with surfaces not just as materials, but as extensions of design thinking and creative expression.

Key attendees from the Sirca leadership included Director Mr. Gurjit Singh Bains and Associate Director Mr. Chirag Goel, who shared insights on the brand’s evolving vision of supporting the profession with finishes that merge durability with aesthetic clarity. Their presence reinforced Sirca’s ongoing commitment to creating spaces of dialogue where design voices can converge and find resonance.

The meet was further enriched by the presence of some of the region’s most respected design professionals. Rohit Mathur of Kayakalp Architects and Interior Designers, Manish Kala of Edifice Design Studio, Vivek Aeron of V Designs Architecture and Interiors, Ashish Mohan of Dwellers Architect,; and Ashish Kumar of Studio4wall,, all contributed perspectives that emphasized the relationship between material choices and design intent. Their reflections added depth to the evening, underscoring how finishes play a pivotal role in balancing endurance, beauty, and meaning within built environments.

The Dehradun edition reaffirmed Sirca’s commitment to positioning itself as a collaborator in the creative process, listening to the profession’s evolving needs, while offering finishes that support both expression and endurance.

What remained as the evening concluded was more than the impression of polished surfaces; it was the memory of conversations that bridged ideas, and the shared sense of community among professionals dedicated to shaping India’s built environment. Through gatherings like these, Sirca continues to strengthen its bond with architects and designers, investing in relationships that inspire design for years to come.

Surat (Gujarat) [India], August 30: India’s fastest-growing social media innovation platform, Flowkar, has announced the official launch of its brand-new feature Markent – a first-of-its-kind skill-based digital competition tool designed to connect brands, creators, and audiences through engaging user-generated content (UGC). To celebrate the launch, Flowkar is rolling out a special Ganesh Chaturthi 2025 competition where participants can upload photos and videos with their Ganpati Bappa and stand a chance to win up to ₹2.5 lakh in rewards.

Markent: A Game-Changer in Social Media Competitions

At its core, Markent is built to bridge the gap between brands seeking authentic marketing and users who want recognition and rewards for their creativity. Unlike traditional contests that are often pay-to-play, Markent offers a completely free entry model, ensuring inclusivity for creators of all levels.

The process is simple:

1) Upload a photo or video on the Markent platform.

2) Gather likes and comments through genuine community engagement.

3) Win exciting prizes and recognition.

With this launch, Flowkar positions Markent as a festive campaign powerhouse where cultural celebrations meet modern influencer marketing. By tying the feature’s debut to Ganesh Chaturthi 2025, Flowkar is tapping into one of India’s most celebrated festivals, encouraging families, creators, and communities to showcase their devotion while competing for rewards.

Ganesh Chaturthi 2025 Campaign Details

-Competition Name: Ganesh Chaturthi by Flowkar

-Prize Pool: Up to ₹2,50,000

-Max Participants: 7,50,000

-Top Rewards Ranks: 2,850

-Eligibility: Minimum 100 followers on social platforms

-Competition Entry Closing: September 6, 2025 11:59 PM IST .

-Competition Period: September 6, 2025 – September 11, 2025

Participants need to simply upload a photo or video with their Ganpati idol on Markent and use official hashtags such as #Flowkar #GaneshChaturthibyFlowkar #SocialPowerhouse. Winners will be chosen based on community engagement (likes & comments), making it a purely skill-based competition with no betting or gambling element.

Why Markent Stands Out

The Indian creator economy is estimated to cross ₹2,200 crore by 2025, with brands increasingly relying on UGC-driven campaigns. Markent uniquely positions itself at the intersection of:

-Festive Campaigns 2025: Allowing brands to tap into India’s cultural calendar.

-Influencer Marketing 2.0: Empowering micro and nano-influencers with equal opportunity.

-No-Betting, No-Gambling Framework: Offering a transparent, skill-based model.

-Scalable Brand Engagement: Up to 7,50,000 participants per campaign.

About Flowkar: The Ultimate Social Tool

While Markent is the newest feather in Flowkar’s cap, the app itself has been gaining traction as an all-in-one social media platform. Flowkar goes beyond being just another networking app – it positions itself as a social + marketing powerhouse with features such as:

-Content Creation & Management: Users can create, schedule, and manage posts across multiple platforms.

-Reward-Based Ecosystem: Competitions and campaigns offer both monetary and recognition-driven rewards.

-AI & Analytics: Flowkar helps creators understand engagement trends and optimize their content.

-Third-Party Integrations: From music APIs to multi-platform streaming tools, Flowkar is built to empower the next generation of creators.

With the launch of Markent, Flowkar is doubling down on its vision to democratize digital marketing. The platform is not just for big brands – even startups and small businesses can host contests, drive engagement, and build visibility with minimal costs.

A Festive Kickstart for India’s Creator Economy

The timing of Markent’s debut with Ganesh Chaturthi 2025 is strategic. Festive campaigns in India see massive spikes in brand spending, consumer engagement, and digital activity.

According to industry trends, brands allocate up to 30% of their annual marketing budget during festivals like Diwali, Ganesh Chaturthi, and Navratri. Flowkar is positioning itself as the preferred platform for such seasonal campaigns, giving both creators and brands a collaborative space.

Speaking about the launch, Flowkar’s spokesperson said:

“Markent is more than just a feature – it’s a movement towards fair, skill-based recognition in the creator economy. Our Ganesh Chaturthi campaign is a way to celebrate culture while empowering users to showcase their creativity. We believe this will set the tone for many more brand-user collaborations on Flowkar.”

Future Roadmap

Following the success of the Markent launch, Flowkar plans to roll out Markent competitions for upcoming festivals like Navratri, Diwali, and Christmas 2025, ensuring a year-round calendar of skill-based brand campaigns.

Conclusion

With the launch of Markent, Flowkar is setting a new benchmark for festive social media competitions and digital brand engagement in India. By combining cultural relevance, cutting-edge tech, and user rewards, Flowkar is not just building an app – it’s building the future of India’s creator economy.

Mumbai (Maharashtra) [India], August 27: Shringar House of Mangalsutra Ltd, India’s most prestigious name in Mangalsutra craftsmanship, proudly announces the landmark launch of “24K SHUDDH” Collection, one of the first-ever HUID Hallmarked Mangalsutra Collection in India crafted entirely in pure 24 Karat gold at their stall at IIJS – India International Jewellery Show Premiere setting a new benchmark for purity-focused jewellery in India.

Crafted in 995 finesse with BIS-certified HUID hallmarking, this ground breaking collection reimagines the mangalsutra not just as a symbol of tradition, but also as a pure 24K investment. It bridges cultural heritage with contemporary consumer value.

The launch event received an overwhelming response from retailers and was graced by several respected industry leaders and dignitaries, including: Mr. Sachin Jain – Regional CEO India, World Gold Council (WGC), Mr. Rajesh Rokde – Chairman, All India Gems & Jewellery Domestic Council (GJC), Mr. Sabyasachi Ray – Executive Director, Gems & Jewellery Export Promotion Council (GJEPC), Mr. Rajesh Kalyanaraman – Kalyan Jewellers, Mr. Varghese Jos Alukka – Jos Alukkas, Mr. Saurabh Gadgil – Chairman & MD, PNG Jewellers, Mr. Ashish Pethe – Director, WHP Jewellers, Mr. Anil Kataria & Mr. Santosh Kataria – DP Abhushan, Mr. Vikas Kataria – Kumari Jewels, Mr. Kinjal Shah – Head of Responsible Jewellery Council (RJC) Asia

This revolutionary collection marks a new chapter in MANGALSUTRA – a bridal and symbolic jewellery in India — where emotion meets investment, and tradition meets innovation. Designed for today’s woman who seeks purity in love and value in legacy, the 24K SHUDDH Collection offers unmatched emotional and financial worth.

SHRINGAR MANGALSUTRA – A Symbol of Eternal Love and Pure Gold

Each piece is crafted in 24 Karat gold, offering the highest investment value and embodying the deepest emotional connection a woman carries through her marital journey. Every Shringar Mangalsutra from the 24K SHUDDH Collection is a blend of devotional significance, refined design, and purity — as hard as the eternal bond of marriage, and as soft as the love it celebrates.

Certified Purity with HUID Hallmarking.

Adding to its unmatched value and credibility, every Mangalsutra in the SHUDDH collection is HUID Hallmarked — ensuring BIS-certified gold purity and complete transparency for every consumer. This assurance reinforces Shringar’s unwavering commitment to quality, trust, and customer confidence.

“We are proud to introduce our latest innovation – a 995 purity, 24 Karat hallmarked mangalsutra that carries the strength of 22 Karat gold. This milestone is the result of months of dedication, and I am truly delighted it was launched by the esteemed dignitaries of the Indian gems & jewellery industry.

Heartfelt thanks to everyone who supported us on this journey — truly grateful.”

– Mr. Chetan Thadeshwar, Chairman & MD, Shringar House of Mangalsutra Ltd.

“Unlike lower karatages, 24 karat gold contains no added alloys, ensuring a natural radiance and unmatched authenticity that makes every piece a true work of art. Shringar Mangalsutra’s launch of a 24 karat collection honours India’s rich legacy of valuing uncompromised quality and reinforces trust for every consumer. This launch elevates not only the standards of craftsmanship but also affirms a commitment to transparency and timeless beauty, bringing a new era of gold jewellery that is as pure as tradition itself. The upcoming marriage season will offer consumers the option of purchasing mangalsutras made from 24 karat pure gold to express their lifelong commitment to their partners.”

– Mr. Sachin Jain, Regional CEO India, World Gold Council (WGC)

“Shringar’s 24K SHUDDH Collection is a bold and visionary step that reflects the evolving expectations of Indian consumers. By combining the emotional heritage of the mangalsutra with the unmatched purity of 24K gold, Shringar has created a category-defining innovation. This is exactly the kind of product leadership our industry needs as we move into a more value-conscious and quality-driven future.”

– Mr. Rajesh Rokde, Chairman, All India Gem and Jewellery Domestic Council (GJC)

“Shringar has long been an innovator in this industry, and Sachin from the World Gold Council gave them the idea to launch a 24 karat mangalsutra–the purest form of gold. Weddings are a moment when the groom wants to give the bride something in its purest form–and what could be better than a 24 karat mangalsutra?

Wishing all the best to Shringar and the entire team. Also, since Shringar has filed for an IPO, we wish them great success. More transparency in our industry is better for all stakeholders. On behalf of Kalyan Jewellers, I’d like to wish IIJS, GJEPC, the World Gold Council, and Shringar all the very best for the show.”

– Mr. Rajesh Kalyanaraman, Kalyan Jewellers

“Today is truly special, because I believe Shringar has become the first in India–possibly in the world–to launch a 24 karat gold mangalsutra. As Sachin Ji mentioned, the World Gold Council conducted extensive research on trends, especially among youth and millennials, and published a report based on those insights.

Shringar has done a fantastic job. This mangalsutra is a pride of Maharashtra. At PNG as well, the highest selling category is mangalsutras, and Shringar specialises in mangalsutras–so it’s a beautiful synergy. I’m very happy that this category is now reaching a new level with 24 karat designs being added.

We’ve just seen it ourselves–it’s lightweight, yet durable and strong. I believe gold is here to stay and will only grow stronger. The emotions behind gold purchases will become even purer. So, congratulations to Shringar on this fantastic product. We’re excited to showcase this to our customers–because, as Sachin said, it truly makes the buying experience purer. Many congratulations again!”

– Dr. Saurabh Gadgil, PNG Jewellers

“I’m happy that Shringar has launched India’s first 24 karat jewellery. While we often hear about 18, 14, or even 9 karat jewellery, Shringar has taken a bold step forward with 24 karat jewellery–a first for India. We wish them all the best and are glad this has been launched during IIJS. I encourage all visitors and participants to check out this 24 karat collection. It allows us to offer something truly unique in our stores. Wishing you all the very best.”

– Mr. Varghese Jos Alukka, JOS ALLUKAS

“Congratulations to Chetan Bhai and the entire Shringar team. And thank you, Sachin Ji, for inspiring the move to 24 karat. Mangalsutra holds deep emotional value for everyone in Maharashtra, and 24 karat gold is also highly cherished here. You’ve combined both of Maharashtra’s greatest loves into one–creating a 24 karat mangalsutra. It’s a brilliant idea, and I’m sure it’s going to be a superstar in Maharashtra. All the best!”

– Mr. Ashish Pethe, WHP Jewellers

“Congratulations to Chetan Bhai, Viraj and Balraj for yet another remarkable initiative. Chetan Bhai is always doing something new and pathbreaking for the jewellery industry, and it brings great joy whenever someone brings something meaningful to the table. So once again, congratulations to the entire Shringar team. Thank you!”

– Mr. Vikas Kataria, Kumari Jewels

“A new chapter begins! Congratulations to Shringar House of Mangalsutra on the launch of the 24K SHUDDH COLLECTION. This is a monumental step forward – bringing an unparalleled level of purity and trust to a symbol so deeply rooted in tradition,”

– Mr. Kinjal Shah, Head – Responsible Jewellery Council (RJC), Asia.

“With the launch of the 24K SHUDDH COLLECTION, we’ve redefined what a mangalsutra can stand for — not just emotional and cultural value, but also absolute purity and asset-worthiness. This innovation reflects our commitment to delivering jewellery that resonates with the modern Indian woman,” said Mr. Viraj Thadeshwar, CEO, Shringar House of Mangalsutra Ltd.

As retailers gear up for the upcoming festive season, the 24K SHUDDH COLLECTION is being hailed as a game-changing offering that brings unmatched value to customers looking for both emotional and financial significance in their jewellery.

Shringar House of Mangalsutra Ltd. extends heartfelt thanks to its retail partners and the broader jewellery community for this enthusiastic reception and looks forward to lighting up showcases across India with this unique 24K innovation.

In an age marked by constant hustle, burnout, and digital fatigue, the modern Indian consumer is increasingly looking for natural, trustworthy solutions to stay balanced, energized, and calm. GNC India identified a critical gap, while ingredients like Ashwagandha and Shilajit are backed by centuries of Ayurvedic wisdom and modern science alike, their consumption has traditionally been inconvenient or unpleasant. These Shilajit & Ashwagandha Honeysticks aim to solve that, making wellness not just effective, but also easy, enjoyable, and portable. This launch marks GNC India’s commitment to bridging the gap between tradition and today’s lifestyle needs with high-quality, clean-label innovations.

Crafted for India’s always-on consumers, these 8g single-serve sticks deliver potent actives in a base of pure, natural honey.

Meanwhile, the Ashwagandha Honey Stick delivers 400mg of pure Ashwagandha extract, known to reduce stress, enhance calmness, and promote sustained energy throughout the day.

Ashutosh Taparia, Managing Director & Board Member, Guardian Healthcare Pvt. Ltd., said,

“At GNC India, we don’t just follow trends, we set them. The Honeysticks are more than just a new format, they are a movement toward effortless wellness. We have taken two of Ayurveda’s most respected nature-based ingredients and transformed them into a daily ritual that fits your pocket, your pace, and your palate. Tear it, taste it, and let the transformation begin.”

Designed for those who are always on the move, these honeysticks eliminate the need for mixing, measuring, or second-guessing. They are 100% vegetarian, preservative-free, and align with the clean-label values of today’s conscious consumers. Whether you are powering through a hectic workday, warming up for a workout, or winding down before bed, GNC Honeysticks fit seamlessly into your wellness routine.

Balaji Uppala, CEO of GNC India, added, “Consumers today want more than nutrition, they want simplicity, science, and soul in one product. That’s exactly what our Honeysticks deliver. They are Ayurvedic, but cool. Functional, but flavorful. Whether you are chasing a deadline or a dumbbell, this is your moment of calm and strength, rolled into one stick of honey.”

The GNC Ayurvedic Honeysticks are now available in stylish, travel-friendly sachets on GNC India’s official website, Amazon, Flipkart, HealthKart, Myntra, Hyugalife, and select offline stores.
