Ahmedabad (Gujarat) [India], December 6: Yes2Broker, popularly known as Y2B, India’s first progressive real estate platform, has announced a series of strategic, women-focused initiatives to expand its statewide reach and accelerate inclusive growth across the real estate landscape. As part of its long-term vision, Y2B is introducing structured programs that bring together incentives, entrepreneurship opportunities, and skill development, positioning the company as a catalyst for greater transparency and modernisation in the sector.

A key highlight of the rollout is the #Yes2Her campaign, designed to encourage women-led property ownership. Under this initiative, customers purchasing property in a woman’s name will be eligible for an assured cashback of ₹1,00,000. To reinforce this commitment, Y2B is also launching a nationwide program to onboard women as Channel Partners, to create one of India’s most significant women-driven sales and distribution networks in real estate. These efforts are expected to significantly enhance the company’s presence across major metros as well as high-potential emerging markets.

In addition to the assured cashback, women property owners in India enjoy several government and financial benefits, making this initiative even more rewarding. Many states offer reduced stamp duty rates for women, resulting in significant savings on property registration. Women also often qualify for lower home loan interest rates, reducing the overall cost of ownership. Further, tax benefits are available for properties registered in a woman’s name, allowing greater deductions on loan interest payments. Under schemes like the Pradhan Mantri Awas Yojana (PMAY), women co-owners are eligible for subsidies and interest benefits, further strengthening financial inclusion and homeownership.

Speaking about these forward-looking initiatives, Ms Rajni Asari, CEO & Co-founder, Y2B, said that the company remains deeply committed to building a progressive ecosystem driven by transparency, professionalism, and equitable opportunities. They emphasised that women are poised to play a transformational role in shaping the future of India’s real estate industry, and Y2B is proud to lead efforts that strengthen participation, ownership, and entrepreneurial growth among women.

Adding to this, Ms Sugandha Sayal, Co-founder, Y2B, highlighted that empowering women through structured programs like #Yes2Her will not only boost financial independence but also bring fresh leadership and trust into the real estate sector.

To enable success for its expanding partner base, Y2B is introducing industry-aligned training covering real estate fundamentals, sales and negotiation techniques, market practices, professional certification, and ongoing mentorship. Through these modules, the company aims to create a skilled, consistent, and performance-driven workforce capable of navigating today’s competitive and evolving real estate environment. Channel Partners will also gain access to verified property inventory and qualified buyer leads, improving operational efficiency and helping them achieve stronger sales conversions.

Beyond capacity building, Y2B’s model also supports women’s financial independence by enabling them to establish their own business units and earn brokerage-based income. This approach strengthens entrepreneurship and contributes to sustainable livelihoods within the industry.

With these initiatives, Yes2Broker aims to reaffirm its position as a modern, trusted, and inclusive platform committed to enhancing transaction transparency, strengthening partner networks, empowering women-led participation, and driving scalable growth across India.

New Delhi [India], December 8: Merino Industries Ltd. concluded its participation at the Architectural Digest Design Show 2025 in Mumbai and Hyderabad with an experience that left visitors engaged, curious, and deeply connected to the idea that materials have the power to shape the way we live. Titled “The Art of Material Living,” the installation transformed Merino’s latest surfaces into a sensorial, home-like journey, making it one of the most immersive showcases at the exhibition.

Celebrity presence added an unmistakable energy to the Merino showcase at the Architectural Digest Design Show 2025. The pavilion welcomed well-known personalities including Ridhi Khosla, Shekhar Suman, and Ayub Khan, each engaging with the material displays and expressing curiosity about the design philosophies behind them. Amy Astley, Global Editorial Director and Editor-in-Chief of Architectural Digest, also visited the Merino installation during the show. Her presence added to the event’s strong industry positioning and highlighted the kind of attention the Architectural Digest Design Show continues to command within global design circles. The interaction proves the show’s reputation as a space where material innovation and contemporary design thinking meaningfully come together. The Hyderabad event was also attended by other prominent personalities like Hameeda Sharma, Chirag Swain, Pallavi Anchuri & Sourojit Ghosh, adding a lot of grace to an incredible showcase.

Instead of a traditional display of products, Merino presented a fully designed living environment. The booth unfolded like a modern home i.e., thoughtful, warm, and intuitive in the way real spaces are meant to feel. Designed in collaboration with ISTO, the narrative “A Home in Harmony” highlighted the growing desire for interior environments that balance global design cues with nature-inspired surfaces and comfortable, human-centered spaces.

Every zone reflected a lived-in story. The French Window Lounge set the tone with soft, natural light and calming textures. Visitors gravitated toward this corner because it demonstrated how subtle materials can create emotional ease in contemporary homes. The layered neutrals, linen-toned surfaces, and gentle grain highlights offered a refreshing example of biophilic-inspired living. The Dining Zone became one of the most photographed areas of the booth. A table topped with a super-matte compact surface showed how elegance and everyday practicality support each other in modern homes. The quiet sophistication of the finish, paired with its durable behaviour, sparked conversations among both architects and homeowners looking for functional beauty.

In the Wine Cellar cum Wardrobe Zone, Merino showcased its oak-inspired synchronous-texture surfaces, demonstrating how deep grain realism can uplift both home and hospitality projects. Visitors were particularly drawn to the way the material carried warmth, craft, and modernity in equal measure(s). The showstopper, however, was the Console and Panelling Wall crafted with the new Grande Collection. Rising to a full 10 feet, the panels created a dramatic sense of scale that stopped visitors in their tracks. The uninterrupted surface lines, rich textures, and deep-emboss finish demonstrated how Grande brings architectural fluidity to large spaces. Designers spent extended time here, exploring the flow of grain, the seamless height, and the visual impact created by its monolithic presence.

Throughout the event, the booth attracted a significant number of visitors, highlighting the relevance of the collections on display. Among the attendees were architects, interior designers, homeowners, and students who engaged with the space as participants, enquiring about the products and the use cases. The conversations centered around how materials influence emotion, flow, and comfort in modern homes: exactly the dialogue Merino hoped to spark.

Expressing his gratitude for the warm response, Mr. Manoj Lohia, Director, Merino Industries Ltd., said, “The response in both cities proved something we deeply believe in over the years i.e., design resonates most when it feels personal. People touched the surfaces, viewed them in different lights, and discussed where they belonged in their own homes. That kind of engagement tells us we’re moving in the right direction. The idea behind our showcases in Mumbai and Hyderabad was to highlight how materials influence comfort, emotion, and the flow of a space. When visitors recognise that feeling for themselves, it strengthens our emphasis on creating surfaces that upscale everyday living with simplicity and intention.”

The Architectural Digest Design Show ‘25 builds upon Merino’s reputation as a design-forward, innovation-strong brand that understands the growing & ever-changing relationship between materials and modern living. Through carefully curated spaces, the company demonstrated how thoughtful surfaces can transform a house into a home, and interiors into experiences that stay with you.

2. Dr. Aarti & Dr. Namrata – The Daring Mother–Daughter Duo Redefining Baby Care: The Story of ADNA Naturals

ADNA Naturals: Dr. Aarti & Dr. Namrata -The Visionary Founders Behind India’s First Herbal Baby Balm

In a world where modern parenting races against time, two extraordinary women—Dr. Aarti Tolia and Dr. Namrata Shah—have fearlessly rewritten the rules of baby care in India. Their brand, ADNA Naturals, was not born in a boardroom but in a grandmother’s, trembling hands as she soothed her newborn grandchild after a fall. When Dr. Aarti reached instinctively for the herbs, leaves, and age-old remedies her own mother once used, she realized something profound—Nani Maa’s nuskas were nowhere to be seen on the shelves of modern India

Refusing to let tradition fade, she embarked on an entrepreneurial journey at an age when most people begin planning their retirement. Defying expectations, she became one of India’s most daring “nanimaa-preneurs,” determined to bring authentic, stone-rubbed, plant-boiled, earth-friendly remedies back into every home.

Standing beside her is her daughter, Dr. Namrata Shah—Mrs. India 2021, global researcher, academic scholar, and a mother herself. Her travels across continents exposed her to countless baby products, yet none matched the purity she wanted for her own child. Powered by her research, discipline, and international training, she transformed her mother’s wisdom into a scientifically backed, dermatologically tested baby-care line.

Together, they crafted India’s first herbal baby balm for hurts and falls, followed by toxin-free massage oils, roll-ons, and daily essentials—each made with one guiding promise:
“What we make is what we use on our own baby.”

Today, ADNA Naturals stands as a powerful movement—where heritage meets science, and two fearless mothers prove that tradition, when preserved with love, can become the future of baby care.

Harsh Parekh, Founder and CEO of Securze, receiving the award.

Mumbai (Maharashtra) [India], December 8: In a clear signal of the intensifying cybersecurity threat environment facing India’s financial sector, Mumbai-based cybersecurity firm Securze was honoured with the Outstanding Security Solutions Provider Award at the 21st Elets NBFC100 Leader of Excellence Awards.

The recognition arrives precisely as Non-Banking Financial Companies (NBFCs), increasingly reliant on digital operations, report a critical spike in cyber incident exposure. This was a core theme at the 21st Elets NBFC100 Tech Summit, which was attended by banking and technology leaders at the financial capital’s epicentre.

Securze, the specialised security division of Navneetpriya Softech Solutions LLP, has carved out a niche by offering sophisticated, continuous defence systems and security consulting. These include round-the-clock end-to-end managed cybersecurity, threat monitoring, and swift incident response for clients spanning NBFCs, fintech, insurance, and government entities. The company’s operations are distinguished by a year-long cycle of analysing suspicious activity and responding instantaneously to breaches.

The Cost of Delay in Digital Finance

For Founder Harsh Parekh, the award is more than an honour; it is validation of the firm’s critical function in an environment where speed is non-negotiable.

“We are grateful to receive this award. It recognises the intense effort put in by our team every single day,” Parekh noted, speaking to the constant pressure facing security teams. He underscored the escalating danger posed by institutions handling sensitive financial data online.

“Cybersecurity requires constant attention. Working with Non-Banking Financial Companies has shown how quickly risks can escalate if not addressed immediately,” Parekh said. “The nature of threats has changed, demanding real-time action. Our primary role is to ensure these critical concerns are addressed the moment they appear.”

The Two Pillars of Defence: Tech and Education

The firm’s influence extends beyond mere technological defence. Recognising the evolving landscape of data privacy and regulatory governance in India, Securze has introduced initiatives that help businesses adapt responsibly while safeguarding stakeholder trust.

The company recently launched DPDPAedu.org, a public-facing platform designed to translate India’s complex Digital Personal Data Protection Act (DPDPA) into accessible language, supported by clear examples and actionable checklists.

The response was immediate and telling: the guide attracted over 4,500 readers within the first 48 hours, confirming the widespread uncertainty among businesses regarding the new legislation.

“Several organisations were unsure about their exact responsibilities under the Act. The legal language can feel complex. We built DPDPAedu.org to make the information clear and practical, allowing institutions to approach compliance with confidence,” Parekh explained.

He concluded by linking the two essential aspects of digital resilience: “If people understand the law properly, they are better prepared to handle data responsibly. Awareness is just as critical as the technology we deploy.”

Securze’s commendation comes within the broader context of the NBFC100 Tech Summit, which repeatedly stressed that as institutions scale their digital presence and adopt cloud systems and tech-driven lending, their vulnerability to cyberattacks increases exponentially. The award, therefore, recognises a firm dedicated to providing the reliable and continuous security support that the expanding digital finance sector urgently requires.

The selection of both studies for oral presentation highlights their academic relevance, rigour, and contribution to India’s rapidly expanding Astro-Tech and Culture-Tech landscape.

The first paper, “Lab-Grown Diamonds and Spiritual Legitimacy: A Multidimensional Consumer–Astrologer Study on Sustainability, Trust, and Astrological Substitutability in India,” investigates the evolving intersection between sustainability and spiritual acceptability in the Indian context. The research offers deep insights into ritual suitability, metaphysical trust, and the complex conditions that shape whether lab-grown diamonds can function as spiritually valid options.

The second paper, “Sacred Marketing: Consumer Perceptions of Brand Participation in Spiritual Events – A Study of Maha Kumbh 2025,” provides a comprehensive analysis of how consumers interpret brand presence in spiritually charged environments. The study tracks sentiment, trust behaviour, purchase intent, and long-term perception shifts during one of the world’s largest spiritual gatherings, offering a pioneering framework for brands operating within the Faith-Tech economy.

Sidhharrth emphasised that both papers reflect the growing integration of Indic Knowledge Systems (IKS) with behavioural science and evidence-based management. “Our aim is to bring structure, data, and scientific validation to domains traditionally viewed as intuition-driven,” he said.

Sneha, Founder of NumroVani, added, “NumroVani is rewriting and transforming the Astro-Tech landscape with evidence-led outcomes, structured methodologies, and real-world validations. Sidhharrth’s presentations at IMRC 2025 reflect our commitment to elevating Indic sciences with rigour, data integrity, and academic depth.”

New Delhi [India], December 8: With overseas migration continuing to attract strong interest from Indian aspirants, navigating the complex and evolving immigration systems of countries such as Canada, Australia, and those in Europe remains a significant challenge.

As a result, professional immigration guidance has become increasingly critical in improving application outcomes.
