Reurja Launches 1300°C Plasma Technology in India for High-Performance Electric Cooking
Mumbai (Maharashtra) [India], April 20: The rapid proliferation of short-form video content promoting ultra-low-cost electric stoves has triggered growing concern among consumers and industry observers in India. Several recent media reports have highlighted how such demonstrations, often priced at ₹1,000–₹2,000, may not reflect real-world performance or safety standards, particularly for commercial or sustained usage.
Against this backdrop, Reurja, an emerging player in advanced kitchen technologies, has announced the introduction of EFS (Electric Fire Stove), a professional electric cooking system powered by German plasma-based technology, designed to deliver high-temperature performance of up to 1300°C for both commercial kitchens and modern residential environments.
The launch reflects a broader shift underway in India’s cooking infrastructure, where stakeholders across the hospitality sector are increasingly evaluating alternatives to traditional LPG and PNG systems. Factors such as fuel price volatility, safety compliance requirements, and operational efficiency are driving interest in electric-based solutions that can replicate or exceed the performance of gas.
EFS is positioned within this emerging category, offering a high-intensity electric flame system engineered for professional kitchen environments, including restaurants, hotels, cloud kitchens, and catering operations. The technology aims to combine thermal efficiency, precision control, and operational safety, addressing key limitations associated with both conventional gas systems and low-grade electric alternatives.
“Much of the content circulating online simplifies the complexity involved in achieving high-temperature cooking through electricity,” said a spokesperson from Reurja. “With EFS, we are introducing a system built on advanced plasma engineering to deliver consistent, high-performance heat output suitable for commercial applications, while also enabling a transition toward safer, gas-free cooking environments.”
According to the company, the system enables faster cooking cycles and improved energy utilization, with outcomes dependent on operational conditions. Its electric-powered architecture removes the need for gas cylinders or pipelines, thereby reducing risks associated with leakage, storage, and combustion, while also offering greater installation flexibility.
Industry analysts note that the concept of gas-free cooking is gaining traction globally, particularly in markets where electrification and safety regulations are influencing kitchen design and infrastructure. In India, this transition remains at an early stage but is expected to accelerate as awareness improves and viable high-performance solutions enter the market.
Reurja is positioning EFS as a professional cooking platform, rather than a conventional consumer appliance, with a focus on durability, scalability, and consistent output. At the same time, the company indicates that the technology is also relevant for modern, technology-enabled homes, where safety, efficiency, and design integration are becoming increasingly important considerations.
To enhance transparency and address concerns arising from misinformation, Reurja is facilitating live online cooking demonstrations, where EFS is operated under real-time conditions. These demonstrations are intended to provide a clearer understanding of performance capabilities compared to widely circulated online content.
Interested participants can schedule a live demonstration through the company’s official website, where further details on the system and its applications are available.
As India’s commercial kitchen ecosystem evolves, the introduction of advanced, performance-driven technologies such as EFS signals a potential shift toward electrified, high-efficiency cooking solutions that align with both operational demands and modern safety expectations.
About Reurja
Reurja is a technology-focused company developing advanced kitchen solutions aimed at improving performance, safety, and efficiency. Its flagship product, EFS (Electric Fire Stove), is a professional electric cooking systiem based on plasma technology, designed for commercial kitchens and modern homes.

Bangalore (Karnataka) [India], April 20: Three days after integrating with Paywize, the e-commerce company had transformed its payment infrastructure and freed its finance team from hours of manual reconciliation by nearly 70%. Improving its payment success rates to 95–98%, improving collections efficiency, while enabling faster payout cycles up to T+0.
Payment failures are a quiet revenue killer. For most e-commerce businesses, they’re accepted as an unavoidable cost of doing business.
Golden Oakk Infotech Private Limited knew this problem well. The Bengaluru-based e commerce company was processing high volumes of daily transactions across UPI, cards, net banking, and digital wallets – but losing a meaningful chunk of them along the way. Payment success rates hovered between 85–90%, reconciliation was a two-to-three-hour daily exercise, and integrating with new payment providers meant waiting up to ten days just to go live. That changed when they integrated with Paywize.
The Problem: Good Enough Wasn’t Good Enough
As Golden Oakk scaled, the cracks in their payment infrastructure became harder to ignore. A 10–15% failure rate on transactions wasn’t just an operational nuisance – it was real revenue walking out the door. Manual reconciliation ate up valuable hours each day that the finance team could have spent on other high-value clients. And the inability to iterate quickly on payment infrastructure made it difficult to stay competitive.
The business needed infrastructure that could keep up with the scaling, without the months-long implementation timelines that had held them back before.
The Solution: Smart Routing, Automated Reconciliation
Paywize is an AI-powered fintech infrastructure platform built for exactly this kind of challenge. Founded in 2023 and headquartered in Bengaluru, the company’s platform is designed around three pillars: collections, payouts, and connected banking – giving businesses the tools to accept payments, disburse funds, and integrate banking infrastructure through a single, unified API.
For Golden Oakk, Paywize enabled intelligent multi-bank routing and dynamic transaction processing and automatically directed transactions through the most reliable paths across UPI, cards, and net banking. Paired with automated reconciliation and real-time visibility into every transaction, the manual grunt work of daily financial operations effectively disappeared.
The Results: Immediate and Measurable
Within days of going live, the impact was clear:
Payment success rates climbed to 95–98%, substantially reducing failed transactions and recovering lost revenue.
Reconciliation effort dropped by nearly 70% — from two to three hours a day down to under one hour.
The integration itself took just three days, compared to the 7–10 days Golden Oakk had experienced with previous providers.
Collections efficiency and transaction consistency improved across the board.
Today, 60–70% of Golden Oakk’s transactions run through Paywize. The finance team, freed from manual reconciliation, now spends that time on cash flow forecasting and operational analysis.
“E-commerce businesses cannot afford payment infrastructure that leads to failed transactions. Golden Oakk improved its payment success rates significantly and streamlined collections within days. These are the results modern payment systems should deliver as standard.”
— Karthik Bukkambudhi, Founder & CEO, Paywize
“Integration is where most payment transitions stall. With Paywize, we were processing live transactions within three days. Payment success rates improved immediately, and reconciliation became far more efficient.”
— Swati Tyagi, Director, Golden Oakk Infotech Private Limited

Since commencing operations in 2024, the company has already achieved over 3 million clean energy kilometres with a fleet of more than 125 electric trucks, demonstrating strong operational viability and growing market acceptance of electric freight solutions.
The Prima E.55S electric truck, built on Tata Motors’ advanced i-MoEV architecture, is equipped with a 450 kWh battery pack and offers a range of up to 350 km on a single charge. Designed for long-haul applications, it features a full-electric drivetrain with an integrated e-axle, regenerative braking, 3-speed Auto Shift transmission, and dual-gun fast-charging capability.
Speaking on the development, Kartikey Hariyani, Founder, BillionE Mobility, said,
“This induction marks a pivotal step in our mission to decarbonise long-haul logistics at scale. As demand for sustainable freight solutions continues to accelerate, we are focused on building a robust, future-ready EV ecosystem that delivers both operational efficiency and environmental impact.

With the integration of these next-generation electric trucks, BillionE Mobility continues to strengthen its position as a key enabler of India’s clean logistics ecosystem, delivering sustainable, efficient, and scalable freight solutions to its customers.

New Delhi [India], April 20: In a rapidly evolving corporate media landscape where influence is increasingly defined by access and credibility, Alok Ranjan Tiwari, Managing Director & CEO of Eternal Corporate Media Private Limited, is emerging as a powerful new-age media entrepreneur. His recent flagship event, Inspiring India, has drawn widespread attention for bringing together some of the most influential names in Indian industry, led by Mukesh Ambani, Chairman & Managing Director of Reliance Industries Limited, who attended the programme as the Guest of Honour for over two hours.
Conceptualised and organised by Tiwari, Inspiring India was held on the occasion of International Human Solidarity Day, with a central theme of unity, inclusion, and innovation for humanity.

The programme also featured Chandrakant Patil, Minister of Higher & Technical Education, Government of Maharashtra, as Chief Guest, along with Professor Man Mohan Sharma, Padma Vibhushan awardee and eminent chemical engineer, as Guest of Honour. At the centre of the event was Dr. Raghunath Mashelkar, former Director General of the Council of Scientific and Industrial Research (CSIR), whose landmark achievement of receiving 54 honorary doctorates was celebrated as a moment of national pride. The occasion was marked by special coffee table book launches, underscoring Eternal Corporate Media’s role in documenting leadership legacies and intellectual milestones.
The scale and credibility of Inspiring India were further reinforced by its high-powered organising committee, constituted by Alok Ranjan Tiwari and chaired by Shailesh Haribhakti, Non-Executive Chairman of Mirae Asset Mutual Fund, Protean eGov Technologies Limited and IBS Fintech India, and Independent Director on the boards of multiple leading corporations.

The presence of such a distinguished committee reflected the trust and institutional credibility Tiwari has built within India’s corporate leadership.
However, Inspiring India was a part of a broader vision under Tiwari’s leadership. Eternal Corporate Media has, in a short span, created a multi-sector platform that connects industry leaders, policymakers, and knowledge institutions. As highlighted in the company’s Annual Impact Report 2025-26, the organisation hosted three flagship national events during the year, featuring more than 80 CEOs and industrialists as speakers and over 1200 CXOs and senior professionals as audience participants across sectors such as government, finance, ESG, MSME, and technology.
One of the key platforms, the Sustainability Convergence Summit & Awards 2025, brought together influential voices driving India’s ESG and sustainability agenda. The summit was attended by Jayant Sinha, former Minister of State for Finance and Civil Aviation, Government of India, as Chief Guest, along with Nadir Godrej, Chairman & Managing Director of Godrej Industries Group; Shailesh Haribhakti, leading corporate figure and independent director; and Pradip Shah, Co-founder of IndAsia Fund Advisors and Founder of HDFC.

The summit provided a platform for dialogue across finance, infrastructure, and sustainability sectors, reinforcing Eternal Corporate Media’s position in ESG thought leadership.
Similarly, the India by MSME initiative focused on strengthening India’s entrepreneurial ecosystem by addressing the needs of small and medium enterprises. The event featured Mangal Prabhat Lodha, Minister in the Government of Maharashtra, as Chief Guest, along with Ravi Ranjan, Managing Director & CEO of State Bank of India, and Manoj Mittal, Chairman & Managing Director of Small Industries Development Bank of India (SIDBI) as Guests of Honour.

Singh, Joint Managing Director & Deputy CEO of SBI Funds Management Limited, among others. The discussions centred on MSME financing, digital transformation, and policy reforms critical to India’s growth trajectory.
Tiwari’s leadership philosophy, as reflected in his message in the impact report, is centred on building platforms that “inspire ideas, enable collaboration, and contribute to India’s growth story.” Industry observers believe that this approach distinguishes him from traditional media entrepreneurs, as he focuses not just on content creation but on building ecosystems of influence that bring together diverse stakeholders.
Having started his career at a young age, Tiwari represents a new generation of media leaders who combine journalism, corporate storytelling, and strategic networking. Through Eternal Corporate Media, he has created a platform that not only documents the journeys of India’s leading business personalities but also facilitates high-level dialogue across sectors.
The impact of these initiatives is evident in the outcomes outlined in the report. Inspiring India reinforced India’s intellectual leadership and strengthened ties with top industrialists and policymakers, while the Sustainability Convergence Summit advanced ESG collaboration and India by MSME deepened engagement between financial institutions and enterprises.
With the successful hosting of Mukesh Ambani and the participation of leading industrialists such as Ajay Piramal, Nikhil Meswani, Deepak Parekh, Swati Piramal, Nadir Godrej, Niraj Bajaj and Deepak Parekh, Alok Ranjan Tiwari has demonstrated his ability to convene India’s most influential voices on a single platform. As India continues its ascent as a global economic powerhouse, such platforms are becoming increasingly important, and Tiwari is positioning himself at the centre of this evolving narrative-shaping conversations that define the future of Indian industry, policy, and innovation.

New Delhi [India], April 20: With the onset of the Indian Premier League, homes across the country transform into high-energy viewing zones—filled with cheering, conversations, and shared moments. Recognizing this shift, Wooden Street, India’s leading furniture and home solutions brand, has unveiled its latest campaign, “The Home Stadium Sale”, offering up to 50% off across categories.
The campaign is rooted in a simple insight: while everyone watches the match, not every setup delivers the same experience.
From adjusting cushions mid-over to struggling for the right viewing angle, everyday discomfort often interrupts the thrill of the game. The campaign line states, “IPL sab dekhte hai per setup sabka interesting nahi hota”. And, Wooden Street aims to bridge this gap by encouraging customers to rethink their living spaces—not just as rooms, but as immersive match-day environments.
Reimagining the Match-Day Experience at Home
“The way India watches cricket has evolved. It’s not just about the screen—it’s about the entire environment around it,” said, Lokendra Ranawat, CEO, Wooden Street. “With The Home Stadium Sale, we’re enabling customers to create spaces that are comfortable, functional, and designed for shared experiences.”
The campaign highlights how thoughtful furniture choices can elevate everyday moments—whether it’s a weekend match with friends or a weekday game with family.
Design Meets Functionality: Essentials of a Home Stadium Setup
The Home Stadium Sale focuses on key categories that shape a complete viewing experience:
Sofa Sets & Recliners: Designed for long viewing hours, offering comfort and support during high-intensity matches
Sofa Cum Beds: Flexible solutions for extended match nights and unexpected guests
Coffee & Center Tables: Keeping essentials like snacks, remotes, and beverages within reach
TV Units: Structuring the viewing experience with optimal screen placement
Dining Tables: Creating shared spaces for match breaks and conversations
Beds & Storage Solutions: Extending comfort beyond the living room while maintaining an organised home
Each product is crafted in-house, reflecting Wooden Street’s commitment to quality, durability, and functional design.
