  • Palak Shah’s Exhale Label Wins ET Now Business Conclave Award for Emerging Fashion Brand

    Palak Shah’s Exhale Label Wins ET Now Business Conclave Award for Emerging Fashion Brand

    New Delhi [India], April 3: Palak Shah, Founder of Exhale Label, has been honored with the prestigious ET Now Business Conclave Award for establishing as an emerging fashion brand, a testament to this philosophy. The award, presented by Union Minister Jitendra Singh along with Rohit Chadda, COO & President – Times Network, marks a milestone in Shah’s journey from a visionary entrepreneur to a trailblazer in the field.

    What started as a dream of becoming a clinical psychologist evolved into a pursuit of self-expression and authenticity through design. Palak Shah, founder of Exhale Label’s journey is one marked by unexpected twists, self-realization, and a commitment to empowering others through design.

    An Apparel & Manufacture graduate from SNDT Women’s University in Mumbai and an Associate’s degree holder in Fashion Design from Parsons School of Design in New York, Palak has spent a decade crafting a remarkable career in the fashion industry. Her journey is defined by a strong commitment to mental health advocacy, empowerment through design, and fostering community connections.

    Exhale Label is not just a fashion brand; it is a movement built on mental health awareness, self-expression, and inclusivity. The label transcends clothing—each piece is a statement, a celebration of individuality, and a reminder that everyone has a story worth telling. Inspired by her own struggles with insecurities, particularly surrounding her skin color, Palak created a brand that fosters empowerment and positivity, paving the way for a more inclusive future. What makes Exhale Label even more remarkable is its growing celebrity following. Icons like Kareena Kapoor, Kriti Sanon, and Sonakshi Sinha have not only embraced the brand but have also purchased pieces like the “Fragile” design, proudly sharing them on social media. This celebrity endorsement highlights the brand’s cultural relevance and its ability to resonate with those who value authenticity and self-expression.

    Exhale Label aims to unite individuals who have faced body shaming, mental health challenges, and the weight of insecurities. The brand’s message is clear: “Everyone has a story.”, and fashion is the medium to express it.

    The brand stands for authenticity, quality, and kindness, rooted in the belief that fashion can be a powerful vehicle for connection and conversation. Exhale Label is more than just a brand—it’s a community where people from all walks of life come together and feel valued. Every day, when we choose an outfit, we are making a choice that reflects our emotions, often deeper than we realize. With every piece, Palak aims to create a space where individuals can express their true selves, free from the constraints of societal expectations, and wear their emotions with pride.

    Having won two awards for Best Menswear and Best Collection at SNDT’s prestigious fashion show, Chrysalis, it was a defining moment in her life, one that validated her instinct to pursue design, and it marked the beginning of her journey in the fashion industry.

    Palak’s journey began as an intern at one of India’s most iconic fashion brands, House of Masaba, where her talent quickly propelled her to the role of Head of Design. This experience laid the foundation for her seamless transition into the international fashion scene, where she honed her craft alongside renowned names like Jay Godfrey and the prestigious luxury house, Vera Wang. Through these collaborations, she gained invaluable exposure to global markets, mastering the art of high-pressure, fast-paced environments while refining her expertise in advanced fashion techniques.

    What sets Palak apart in India’s fashion landscape is her visionary approach to fashion as a platform for empowerment and personal storytelling. Through ‘Exhale Warriors’, Palak created a space for individuals to share their journeys related to mental health, self-discovery, and overcoming challenges. In a country where mental health has long been taboo, Exhale Label had the first-mover advantage, starting the conversation as early as 2018—before 2020 helped normalize it. The initiative fosters a supportive community and promotes the message that “It’s okay not to be okay.” Each piece from Exhale Label embodies an ‘Exhale Warrior’s’ story, symbolizing the brand’s commitment to weaving design with personal narratives. It brings together those who have faced insecurities, body shaming, and mental health struggles, offering them a place of understanding and celebration.

    As Exhale Label evolves, Palak remains focused on creating clothing that not only makes people look good but also feel good. The brand’s bold designs reflect its dedication to inclusivity, while its commitment to fair trade and ethical practices establishes it as a beacon for responsible fashion. Exhale Label is more than a brand—it’s a celebration of stories, struggles, and triumphs, a platform for individuals to embrace who they are and wear their identity with pride. In Palak Shah’s words, “Our mission is to create pieces that make you feel seen, heard, and valued.” Exhale Label invites everyone to join in, wear their story, and exhale with confidence.

  • Planning to Start NGO, then ‘Section 8 Company’ is the Best Option in the Era of Digital India

    Planning to Start NGO, then ‘Section 8 Company’ is the Best Option in the Era of Digital India

    New Delhi [India], April 3: If you are planning to start an NGO in India, the biggest doubt would be whether you should choose a Trust, Society or Section 8 company? The answer is very simple. If you are thinking long-term and want donor trust, smooth compliance and better chances of CSR funding, then Section 8 Company is the best option for you.

    Let us explain in simple language why the Section 8 company option is better. Actually, Section 8 company registration is the best structure for your NGO, and it proves to be extremely convenient in getting CSR funding, ensuring NGO transparency and managing NGO compliance in India.

    Of course, it is easy to register a trust and society, but there are some important things that NGO operators are not told about. For example, if you need to change the address of your NGO in the future, then you have to be ready for manual paperwork, visits to the local registrar and long waiting period.

    And if you ever want to update the objectives of your NGO and it is a trust, you may need court approval. Societies are a slightly better option, but still it is difficult to avoid physical paperwork and red tape.

    If you want to have financial transparency to show to a donor or company, it can also be difficult, as most trusts and societies do not have online records. Everything is offline and scattered.

    Vipul Sharma,co-founder of NGOExperts, says, “In today’s time, when everything is digital, these manual processes make trusts and societies slow, outdated and less credible in the eyes of funders. So, if you are looking for easy NGO registration, flexible operations and national-level recognition, trusts and societies can limit your growth. In such a case, the smart, digital and transparent option of a Section 8 company is the best choice. A Section 8 company is registered under the Companies Act just like a normal company. But it runs only for charitable or non-profit purposes.”

    Vipul Sharma says that Section 8 companies are the future for NGO operations in India. It has many benefits, like all the records being online on the MCA (Ministry of Corporate Affairs) website. You can change addresses, directors or objectives online with proper documents and board resolutions. You have to file audited accounts and annual reports, which increases public confidence. It is legally recognised all over India – it is not limited to any district or state. Most importantly, donors and CSR companies prefer it because of its transparent structure.

    This is why most people are looking for online Section 8 company registration instead of traditional NGO structures. Corporates prefer Section 8 for CSR funding. Suppose you are applying for CSR funds from a big company. The first thing they check is whether your NGO has a clear legal registration. Are audited reports filed? Are its directors, objectives and compliance history publicly available? Section 8 companies meet all these aspects. But trusts and societies don’t do that. That’s why most companies ask NGOs to register as Section 8 or collaborate with one. This makes their due diligence easier.

    This structure is highly suitable for companies and donors looking for transparent NGO operations and a legal NGO structure. Because you don’t have to chase files or wait for state-level authorities. You can run your NGO like a professional organisation. You can add co-founders as directors and make smart decisions with legal backing. Investors, corporates and even international funders rely more on Section 8.

    Many people get scared hearing the “Companies Act” or “ROC filing”, says Vipul Sharma. This is where NGOExperts come into play, helping you choose the right name and structure. Drafting your MOA (objective) and AOA (rules). Apply for your Section 8 licence. Register the company online and later assist you in filing 12A/80G and CSR-1.

    Trusts and societies have served India for decades, no doubt about that. But with the changing times, it is important to adapt to technology along with service, so if you are looking for affordable NGO registration services or someone who can help you from start to finish, the professionals at NGOExperts are at your service.

  • Traze Expands into South Asia, Unlocks Global Trading Access for Retail Investors

    Traze Expands into South Asia, Unlocks Global Trading Access for Retail Investors

    New Delhi [India], April 2: In a bold move to capture the rapidly growing retail investment market across India and its neighbouring economies, global trading platform Traze, powered by Zeal Group, has officially announced its expansion into South Asia. Backed by robust technology, advanced security protocols, and a unique rewards-based model, the platform aims to redefine access to global financial markets for both seasoned traders and new investors in the region.

    The expansion comes amid a dramatic rise in online trading adoption in countries like India, Bangladesh, and Sri Lanka, where millions of first-time investors are turning to digital platforms to manage and grow their wealth. With a proven track record across Southeast Asia, MENA, and South Africa, Traze’s foray into South Asia marks a pivotal chapter in Zeal Group’s international growth playbook.

    “Our mission is to empower South Asian investors with tools and resources that ensure secure, transparent, and seamless trading experiences. Traze is more than just a platform—it is an enabler for traders from the region to access global opportunities and achieve their financial goals,” said the CEO of Traze in an official statement.

    Comprehensive Access with Next-Gen Infrastructure

    Traze offers users access to over 120 financial instruments, including Contracts for Difference (CFDs), equities, indices, commodities, cryptocurrencies, and 12 types of precious metals.

In addition, it holds a Category 1 license from the Securities and Commodities Authority (SCA) in the UAE.

    The company also implements a four-layer security system with segregated client funds to ensure transparency and fund protection—an essential concern for retail traders wary of counterparty risk.

    ZDS Token Rewards: Making Trading Engaging and Profitable

    Perhaps the most innovative aspect of Traze is its ZDS Token Rewards Program, which gamifies trading while offering real-world financial incentives. Unlike conventional platforms that focus purely on fees and transactions, Traze introduces ZDS tokens and ZDU points to create a participatory financial ecosystem.

    Key features of the program include:

    • Loss Protection: Traders who incur monthly losses can receive credit back in ZDU points, convertible into ZDS tokens.
    • Referral Incentives: Referrers earn matching rewards when their invitees verify their accounts, deposit funds, and complete trades.
    • Profit-Based Conversion: Up to 20% of monthly profits can be converted into ZDS tokens if trading volume benchmarks are met.
    • Equity-Based APR: The platform offers an APR of up to 32.85% based on the user’s net equity and engagement.
    • Tiered Rewards: As users trade more, they unlock higher tiers with better interest rates, additional bonuses, and exclusive benefits.

    The rewards program is aimed at building user stickiness while reinforcing trading discipline and activity across all user segments.

    South Asia: A Fintech Frontier

    With over 100 million new retail investors entering the market across South Asia in the past three years, the region represents a compelling opportunity for digital-first financial platforms. In India alone, the number of demat accounts has more than doubled since 2020, while fintech penetration is growing rapidly in Bangladesh and Sri Lanka.

    Traze’s entry into the market signals growing global confidence in the region’s retail investment potential. The company is expected to focus heavily on localising its product offering, onboarding regional influencers, and building strategic partnerships with financial education platforms and brokers.

    As digital-first trading becomes the norm and regulatory environments evolve to support innovation, platforms like Traze are poised to bridge the gap between traditional investors and modern financial opportunities.

    Looking Ahead

    With strong institutional backing from Zeal Group and a clear focus on compliance, accessibility, and innovation, Traze is positioning itself as a formidable player in South Asia’s trading ecosystem. Its launch is timely, given the evolving investor appetite for global diversification and tech-driven investment platforms.

    For investors looking to start or upgrade their trading journey, Traze offers a unique blend of technology, rewards, and regulatory confidence—delivering not just access to markets, but a holistic experience aimed at long-term financial empowerment.
