Communicated earlier this year to BSE, the company is likely to hold Board of Directors meeting in near future, for the shareholders to consider and approve plans for raising funds via issuance of eligible securities.

The proposed capital raise may involve issuance of eligible securities of the company, in one or more ways, through public and/or private offerings, including by way of preferential issue, qualified institutions placement and / or further public offering, subject to such approvals as may be required, including approval of the shareholders of the Company.

Breaking the Bollywood Mold: A Film That Honors Hard Work Over Hype

New Delhi [India], June 21: Indian cinema has portrayed the lives of doctors, engineers, police officers, and even gangsters, but never before has the journey of a Chartered Accountancy student taken the spotlight on the big screen. Well Done CA Sahab, a Hindi feature film releasing across India on June 27, 2025, changes that.

For the first time in the 100-year history of Indian cinema, a film explores the life of CA students— young individuals who commit to one of the most demanding professional paths in the country. Known for its academic rigour and low pass rates, the CA course is a test of not just intellect but patience, sacrifice, and mental resilience.

Well Done CA Sahab captures this journey with remarkable sensitivity. It doesn’t dramatise or oversimplify. Instead, it presents an honest, heartfelt look at the struggles, setbacks, and silent perseverance that define the CA experience. It’s a film for students, families, mentors, and anyone who has ever faced a goal that demands everything.

The film is the brainchild of CA Aaditya Trivedi, who traded in his calculator for a pen to write and creatively produce the film. With Sarvesh Kumar Singh directing and editing the project, the film balances emotional depth with grounded realism. Produced by Figures and Frames LLP and supported by Indie Productions, Well Done CA Sahab is crafted with an indie soul and a national vision.

Anchored by a strong cast — Gopal Datt, Sayandeep Sengupta, Nishma Soni, Jyoti Kapoor, and Gaurav Paswala — the film brings authenticity to its narrative. Music by Sanchit Balhara (Bajirao Mastani) and background score composition by Samiran Das (Pathaan) elevate the storytelling, while the local setting of Ahmedabad adds a layer of raw familiarity.

What sets this film apart isn’t just its subject matter, but its approach. Filmed extensively in Gujarat, the visuals stay rooted in the real lives of students across the country, far from glamorised campuses or stylised drama. It’s a story told with sincerity, leaning on emotional truth rather than visual spectacle.

Releasing alongside a star-led film like Sitaare Zameen Par is a bold decision, but it signals confidence. “We may not have the stars, but we have the story,” says Aaditya Trivedi.

More than just a film, Well Done CA Sahab is a tribute to a community that has long been underrepresented in cinema. With its honest storytelling and relatable characters, it opens a new chapter in Indian filmmaking — one that honors effort, celebrates perseverance, and finally gives CA students the screen time they’ve long deserved.

How RegisterKaro is Helping Businesses Align with New GST/ROC/Startup India Norms
Gurgaon (Haryana) [India], June 21: In India’s $3.7 trillion economy, significant progress has been made in improving the ease of doing business. However, navigating the regulatory landscape—spanning Goods and Services Tax (GST), Registrar of Companies (ROC) filings, and Startup India compliance—remains a formidable challenge for businesses across sectors.

RegisterKaro, a leading legal and business advisory firm, addresses these challenges head-on. By offering expert compliance services at accessible price points, the company is making complex regulatory procedures simpler and more transparent for thousands of Indian entrepreneurs.

With a team of over 550 professionals and more than 2,000 new businesses onboarded each month, this bootstrapped venture is steadily building a compliant and growth-focused business ecosystem across India.

The necessity for such specialized support is underscored by the continuous evolution of key regulatory frameworks:

1. GST Compliance

GST registration is mandatory for businesses exceeding certain turnover thresholds: ₹40 lakhs for goods suppliers and ₹20 lakhs for service providers in most states, with lower thresholds in special category states.

Mandatory Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) for portal access, 30-day e-invoice reporting rule for businesses with annual turnover exceeding ₹10 crore, Compulsory Input Service Distributor (ISD) registration for entities operating multiple GSTINs under one PAN (effective April 1, 2025).

RegisterKaro streamlines this entire process. From helping businesses register for GST to ensuring timely and accurate return filings, their services eliminate compliance burdens. They also assist in adapting to newer requirements such as sequential GSTR-7 filing and biometric authentication for company directors.

2. ROC Filings and Corporate Compliance

The Companies Act, 2013 mandates several compliance requirements for companies registered with the Ministry of Corporate Affairs (MCA).
- Company Incorporation: The process involves securing a Digital Signature Certificate (DSC), Director Identification Number (DIN), name approval, and submitting the SPICe+ form. RegisterKaro facilitates this end-to-end.
- Annual Compliances: All private limited companies must file financial statements (AOC-4) and annual returns (MGT-7/MGT-7A) within 30 and 60 days of their Annual General Meeting (AGM), respectively.
- Dematerialization Mandate: Under the Companies (Prospectus and Allotment of Securities) Second Amendment Rules, 2023,all private companies (excluding “small companies”) must convert all existing securities into dematerialized form by June 30, 2025. This rule aims to increase transparency, improve corporate governance, and align private companies with practices followed by public companies.
3. Startup India Norms

The government’s Startup India initiative offers eligible startups a host of benefits including tax exemptions, simplified compliance, and accelerated IP protection. However, accessing these benefits requires DPIIT recognition and strict adherence to eligibility norms.

RegisterKaro assists startups throughout this journey—from name availability checks and incorporation documentation to obtaining DPIIT recognition. They also help eligible startups apply for tax exemptions under:
- Section 80-IAC: A 3-year tax holiday within the first 10 years of incorporation.
- Section 56(2)(VIIB): Exemption from Angel Tax on investments above fair market value.
By simplifying regulatory hurdles, RegisterKaro empowers more individuals to establish and grow their businesses, contributing to India’s economic growth and the “Make in India” initiative.

In a regulatory landscape that continues to evolve, RegisterKaro serves as a trusted partner, ensuring businesses stay compliant, confident, and future-ready.

The Future of Laundry Is Here: How Washmart Is Building India’s Smartest Cleaning Network
Bangalore (Karnataka) [India], June 21: Consumer preferences have evolved with the times. Nowadays, everyone appreciates services and solutions that are convenient, technologically advanced, and add value to their lives. The laundry sector is no exception, as it, too, reflects evolving consumer expectations. People no longer perceive laundry as a tedious activity and prefer outsourcing the work to professional laundry stores in their locality. It led to the rise of the modern Indian laundry companies that are innovative, customer-centric, and ROI-driven.

These companies are motivating customer behaviour by focusing on quality-driven services that are reliable, affordable, sustainable, and convenient. In recent times, Washmart has emerged as a key driver of this change by expanding its network across the country and building India’s growth-driven laundry franchise infrastructure. From a modest inception, Washmart has ascended to become a dominant player in the laundry sector.

Future of laundry in India

The modern, organised laundry sector is a tremendous improvement over a system that has largely been unorganised in the past with a decentralised presence of mom-and-pop shops and local washermen. In addition, a host of other factors have also given prominence to modern laundry solutions, such as increased disposable income, growing lifestyle aspirations, urban population boom, and rising hygiene concerns post the pandemic situation. We’ve merely scratched the surface when it comes to estimating the laundry sector’s future growth projections, as it’s going to touch USD 1,398.8 million by 2030.

The demand is only getting more intense, and so is the scope for innovation, better services, and profitability. Enter Washmart, a leading laundry player pulling out all the stops to address these demands by offering a robust and proven business model that hinges on quality services, innovation, and customer satisfaction.

Recognised among India’s leading laundry franchise

Washmart appeals to aspiring entrepreneurs because it provides them with assurance of profitability without heavy investment commitments or logistical complexities. In short, it’s asset-light and easily scalable, enabling Franchise to start reaping benefits from the initial phase. Its plug-and-play business model comes in handy, allowing franchise investors to receive a prepackaged, fully deployed system, encompassing everything from store setup and branding to logistical support and training. With a fully operational business model, Washmart eliminates the hurdles that one could experience in traditional business models.

Some notable advantages:
- Pre-configured model: From site recce to store interiors, equipment, and operational processes, Washmart takes everything within its ambit.
- Technology integration: Each store across the country is linked with Washmart’s centralised backend and unified platform, helping facilitate processes and delivery, real-time orders, CRM, payments, etc.
- Marketing push: Washmart’s strong market presence offers franchisees a name to rely on, marketing strategies to benefit from, and a proven model to experience faster growth.
- Prompt support: Offering robust assistance to clients is one of the foremost areas of focus for Washmart, enabling them to manage their processes effectively from day one.
- Standardised offerings across locations: Washmart’s service standards are uniform across areas, providing thorough support for business owners.
- User application: Washmart app offers end-to-end order management, from order pick-up/drop-off and order tracking to online payment and feedback contribution.
Hygiene and environmental considerations

The world we’re living in has undergone a significant change post the COVID outbreak. Maintaining cleanliness and hygiene is no longer elective – it’s non-negotiable. Washmart makes it a point that each store follows medical-grade sanitisation standards. Besides, the company lays great emphasis on the use of eco-friendly and skin-safe detergents.

Washmart is equally concerned about the environmental impact and focuses immensely on energy-efficient machines, smart water-usage washers, etc. This ethos is evident across all its franchisees.

Imparting skills training for empowerment

Behind every radiating cloth is a trained expert. Washmart places a premium on manpower development and undertakes training and upskilling programmes to accommodate the needs of skilled professionals in the Laundry Industry. These professionals are taught various aspects of on-site laundry process oversight, such as:
- Technology training
- Fabric preservation, treatment, and packaging
- Energy-efficient processes for lower carbon footprints
- Soft skills for customer-facing scenarios
Imparting training to skilled professionals across cities, Washmart also helps generate employment opportunities for a diverse category of blue-collar workforce.

Growth beyond regions

Having a presence of 250+ stores across 112 cities, Washmart’s expansion is a continual process. Having opened hundreds of stores in various parts of the country, including metros and tier 3 towns, the company values its client’s satisfaction as the success benchmark. The company envisions carrying forward the same values and ethos, broadening their reach in over 100 cities and towns over the next 2 years.

Conclusion

The dynamism and diversity of India might be the reasons behind the world saying, “India is not for beginners.” Well, whatever they mean by that, one obvious fact for a country as bustling and diverse as India is that addressing laundry gaps with scalability in a massively settled region is no mean feat. Driven by this purpose, Washmart’s offerings are redefining the Indian laundry landscape.

The Body Bends, But What About the Mind? UNESCO Laureate Ilashrei Anand Asks the World On Yoga Day
Mumbai (Maharashtra) [India], June 21: This International Yoga Day, as millions practice poses in parks and posts flood social media, Ilashrei Anand, the renowned Yoga Psychologist, asks a different question, “ Is our mind as flexible as our body? ”

Yoga Psychology is the lesser-known limb of the Yogic tradition, one that has nothing to do with postures and everything to do with perception, patterns, and inner programming. In a time when anxiety is normalized, emotional burnout is glamorized, and relationships are quietly bleeding, 40under40 Business World Wellbeing Winner, Ilashrei Anand, urges us to return to what Yoga originally stood for, not just fitness, but freedom.

“Our backbends won’t heal our heartbreaks. Our 6AM routine won’t fix years of guilt. Yoga was never just physical, it is a map for emotional liberation,” says Ilashrei Anand, who is a humble alumnus of some of the world’s oldest ashrams like, The Yoga Institute, Santacruz.

Yoga Psychology isn’t a class we take. It’s a lens through which we begin to see our suffering not as punishment, but as solutions. Ilashreii Anand guides how emotions, memories, traumas, and belief systems get lodged in the mind-body complex, and how they can be consciously released through:
- Patanjali’s Yoga Sutras (for understanding the mental fluctuations)
- Bhagavad Gita’s karmic framework (for understanding suffering and dharma)
- The Chakra System (for emotional architecture)
- Ayurvedic (for body-mind-soul integration)
Having helped over 1 lakh individuals across 12+ countries, Ilashrei Anand says unlike Western psychology that often isolates the ‘problem’, Yoga Psychology asks:
Where in your story did you lose your connection to the self? She emphasises that physical health issues like PCOS, Gut Issues, Thyroid, insomnia, and even Cardiac conditions, are psychosomatic, triggered by unhealed emotional trauma.

Ilashrei Anand, the Harvard-certified Psychology expert, has dedicated over a decade to healing lives through Root Cause Healing using ancient Yogic principles. She shows how Yoga isn’t just about stretching, but how to stop emotionally shrinking.

“We’re treating symptoms, not causes. Our weight gain is often unexpressed anger. Our cravings or addictions are often due to emotional abandonment. Yoga Psychology helps trace the wound and heal from the root,” explains the Kranti Yodha Award honoured, Ilashrei Anand.

Yoga Psychology: Not a Trend but A Timeless Truth

As modern mental health models evolve, Ilashrei points out that Yoga Psychology already contains everything the world is just discovering, neuroplasticity, emotional regulation, chakra healing, inner child work, shadow work, trauma healing, etc.

Ilashrei reminds us that most chronic health conditions are emotional alarms, not just hormonal imbalances. “Our symptoms are not random. They’re encrypted stories from our past, often emotional. Yoga Psychology helps us decode them, and finally come home to self.”

Who Needs This Work?
- The high-functioning woman who is constantly working to please others
- The man who provides for everyone but feels invisible
- The dedicated employee who’s burnt out with poor work-life boundaries
- The couple who look perfect online but sleep in silence
- The therapist, the parent, the leader, burnt out from giving
- The parent struggling to understand their teenage kid
If you’re surviving, but not really living, Ilashrei’s work might be what your soul has been whispering for.

This Yoga Day, Don’t Just Move. Heal.

Step beyond the mat. Into the mind. Into the self.
Because real flexibility isn’t just in your hamstrings, it’s in your beliefs, your wounds, your story.

A rare and refreshing story of a mother-in-law and daughter-in-law duo who’ve turned their shared love for Indian textiles into a fashion empire that continues to shape ethnicwear trends across the country.

Founded over two decades ago in the heart of Delhi, Ghunnghat is more than just a fashion label—it’s a living legacy. What began as a boutique venture celebrating India’s rich design heritage has now grown into a cult favorite among women seeking a seamless blend of tradition and contemporary flair. From festive wear to statement occasion outfits, every Ghunnghat ensemble is a poetic balance of heritage and haute couture.

A Bond Beyond Bloodlines

At the helm of this success story are two visionaries from different generations. The mother-in-law (Mrs. Sarlah Gupta) brings a wealth of traditional wisdom, textile knowledge, and an eye for heirloom-worthy craftsmanship. The daughter-in-law (Mrs. Shlpa Gupta), on the other hand, is the creative force shaping the brand’s progressive aesthetic, bringing draped sarees, indo-western cord sets, and fusion patolas to a new generation of wearers. Together, their dynamic has turned what could have been a routine family business into a powerful example of what women can achieve when they support each other across generations.

“It’s never been about who’s leading whom,” the duo shares. “It’s about building something beautiful together—something that’s rooted in tradition but constantly evolving.”

Design with a Soul

From intricate Banarasi tissue sarees to contemporary anarkalis, Ghunnghat’s collections celebrate artisanal beauty at its finest. Each piece is handcrafted by skilled artisans across Gujarat, Rajasthan, and Varanasi—many of whom have been associated with the brand since its inception. The brand is deeply invested in sustaining Indian craftsmanship and has built long-term relationships with over 200 artisans, ensuring ethical sourcing, fair wages, and a platform for their art to thrive in a modern market.

Behind every lehenga or Paithani saree lies weeks of detailing—from dyeing and embroidery to final fittings. No mass production, no shortcuts—just stories stitched with love and legacy.

Customers That Turn Into Family

A quick glance through Ghunnghat’s reviews reveals something extraordinary: women don’t just buy from Ghunnghat, they belong to it. Whether it’s brides looking for their dream outfit, professionals seeking power fusion-wear, or mothers gifting heirloom sets to daughters, Ghunnghat has become a household name, loved not just for its designs but also for its warm service and attention to detail.

“Our customers often walk in for an outfit and walk out with a memory,” says the younger co-founder. “That’s the power of designing not just with hands, but with heart.”

New Launches That Blend the Old & New

In 2025, Ghunnghat is doubling down on its commitment to design innovation. The brand recently launched a “Modern Maharani” collection, reimagining regal silhouettes like shararas and anarkalis with bold cuts, unconventional fabrics, and minimalist embroideries. Their newly released draped pre-stitched sarees are a runaway hit with young bridesmaids and professionals alike, offering grace without the fuss.

Coming soon: a ready-to-wear fusion patola range that bridges handwoven art with modern tailoring.

What’s Next for Ghunnghat?

With their flagship Delhi boutique thriving and an ever-expanding online audience, the brand is now preparing for collaborations with Indian designers, slow fashion platforms, and curated exhibitions globally. Ghunnghat is also setting up workshops with artisan clusters, aiming to preserve age-old weaving techniques by training the next generation.

In a fashion landscape often dominated by fleeting trends, Ghunnghat continues to thrive on something far deeper—family, fabric, and fearless femininity.

Whether you’re a bride-to-be, a working woman with a love for elegant silhouettes, or someone simply seeking a piece of India to wear with pride, Ghunnghat is where you’ll find yourself.
