With this inauguration, students can now further their careers and make them brighter.

Dhiraj Poojara is an alumni of “Dhirubhai Ambani Institute” and a veteran IT consultant with over 17 years of experience. Needless to say, he is the trainer of the world’s youngest programmers at the “Coding and Startup Incubation Center”. Under his commendable guidance, many students are working at high-level posts in the country and abroad. And now this opportunity is waiting for you, too.

Among the dignitaries present during the inauguration ceremony include a chief guest, Shalini Duhan (IAS) Commissioner of Schools, Gandhinagar and Dr. K.S. Dasgupta Ph.D., IIT Bombay, as well as DA-IICTE Space Scientist. They have also provided the necessary guidance to the students and explained the importance of this centre.

One of the most baffling questions in a career is, “What to do after 10 and 12?’. This question has always kept both students and parents in a dilemma. Thanks to this centre as it will emerge as an effective platform with plentiful opportunities for the students.
On this occasion, Dhiraj Poojara announced that he would provide free programming courses along with various skills and personality development training to any students who have lost the shelter of their parents and also for those who are financially backward.

What’s’ more, after completing programming courses and skills and personality development training, ‘Royal Technosoft Pvt. Ltd’ will itself provide job placement opportunities in a good software company.

Speaking on this inauguration occasion, Dhiraj Poojara said, “In today’s age, those who are not updated and don’t know coding will not be able to survive, just as the dinosaurs who couldn’t survive on this earth. One needs to know the technology deeply. These days many sites and data are usually being hacked. If we do not have a security coder in each of our families, we can use the system, but we can never protect it. Not just a doctor, a coder too, must be in every family. Such should be a future vision. Otherwise, even a country like China could rule us.”

March 10: With key players like Binance being on the verge of shifting their business to Dubai, the new regulation pertaining to digital assets would accelerate the growth of crypto industry in the emirate. The main objective behind this regulation is to create a framework which aims to protect investors and provide international guidelines that will facilitate growth in Dubai.

An independent authority has been established to supervise the creation of the world’s greatest virtual asset business environment in terms of legislation, licensing, governance, and alignment with local and global financial systems.

What does this mean for Indian crypto startups who are still facing regulatory issues in their own land? According to Advocate P.M. Mishra, founder of Finjuris Counsel FZ-LLC, UAE and Finlaw Consultancy Pvt. Ltd, India, it is expected that a major chunk of Indian crypto startups would move their business to Dubai due to the regulatory ambiguity regarding cryptocurrency industry in India. Considering the amount of people and businesses venturing into the crypto industry, his would cause a huge loss to the Indian digital asset industry as most of the revenue earned by Indian crypto startups would remain in Dubai.

Apart from that, the geographical location of Dubai is a lot more favorable due to the distance between India and UAE. This increases the ease of conducting business. To retain businesses in nexus with the crypto industry, it is very important for the government of India to take a proactive decision of bringing in an effective legislation to promote the interests of investors as well as entrepreneurs who wish to explore the arena of virtual digital asset industry.

It is high time that the government sheds clarity on its stand regarding cryptocurrency and regulates the market and its players in a manner that ensures both safety and profitability. There must be no room for exploitation of investors in the cryptocurrency space, says Advocate P.M. Mishra. (Finlaw Consultancy)

The IOC 3.0, a brainchild of Milan Parikh, managing director and co-founder of Jainam Broking Limited, was organised at the Surat International Exhibition and Convention Centre (SIECC) at Surat’s Sarthana on March 5. The conclave witnessed the gathering of over 9,000 investors, including students from the colleges and students in Surat, Ahmedabad, Vadodara, and Bardoli.

An important series of seminars were organised to provide in-depth knowledge of stock trading, options trading, and risk management. A unique cafeteria was set up at the SIECC for the investors to connect with the exhibitors from the financial investment sector.

Ronak Unadkat, an options trader, spoke on ‘Spread Trading and their Adjustment in Different Market Conditions,’ Mitesh Patel, a future and options trader, spoke on ‘Journey of the Normal Trader to Option Trader,’ and Milan Parikh, co-founder and managing director of Jainam Broking Limited, spoke on ‘Risk Management in Derivatives.’

New Delhi (India), March 10: The Russian-Ukraine war wreaked havoc on the entire world, and India, in particular, has been hit by poor market conditions. The Sensex fell by 15% from its 52 weeks high, but the steel industry has been on a bull run. Cumulatively, Russia and Ukraine are the 5th and 12th largest steelmakers globally, respectively, accounting for around 10% of the global steel trade. About 45% of the steel production in Russia and approximately 75% in Ukraine is exported to other nations. Russian mills brace for sanctions, and Ukrainian steel production gets severely disrupted by the conflict, which gives an opportunity for Indian Steel manufacturers to gain market share globally as India is the net exporter of steel and is the second-largest country to manufacture steel after China.

Since the war has started, NIFTY metal has seen 60 points increase from the last month, and with 7.5% customs duty, cesses, and freight cost, there is any way a significant trade barrier that allows the domestic steelmakers to benchmark local rates against imports. With the landed cost of imports surging and demand being buoyant, it will be much easier now for Indian steel companies like state-run SAIL and private companies like JSW Steel, Tata Steel, ESL, and JSPL to hike the local prices.

Tata Steel, one of the largest steel manufacturers in India, has seen record-breaking growth in its stock prices. Stock prices have increased by 78.36% from last year. On the other hand, JSW Steel stock prices have witnessed 55.38% growth from previous year. These steel stocks have seen a staggering increase in the past year.

Among companies like Tata Steel, JSW Steel, and many other companies. ESL Steel Ltd, a fully integrated steel plant in Bokaro, Jharkhand, with a capacity of 1.5 MT, has generated total revenue of Rs. 4900 Cr and Rs. 2700 Cr profit in FY21. ESL is aiming to double its steel capacity in a few years. Vedanta Group acquired the company through NCLT. Vedanta, the holding company of ESL, is one of the world’s leading oil and gas and metals companies with significant operations in oil and gas, zinc, lead, silver, copper, iron ore, steel, and aluminum and power across India, South Africa, and Namibia. With proactive management and economies of scale, the company has also witnessed a sharp increase in its revenue and net profit amid COVID-19.

ESL shares are traded in the unlisted market between ₹85 – ₹90, which is precisely what investors should look for to make a good return if they have missed out on opportunities with listed steel companies. With the surge in steel prices, there is substantial demand for this stock in the private equity space. ESL is expected to give an excellent return to investors in the coming future.

Doctors from Apollo Clinic, Chandigarh discussed women’s health issues on Women’s Day.

Chandigarh (India), March 10: Making Women’s Day meaningful and spreading awareness on women’s health, SimpliHealth – an online platformfor health-related information that features content and videos by top-rated doctors, medical professionals, and digital experts, held a panel discussion of doctors on ‘Prioritizing Health for Women’ as part of Women’s Day celebration. The esteemed doctors from Apollo Clinic, Chandigarh joined this panel discussion at Hotel Icon, Sector 8 Chandigarh.

The panel was moderated by Dr. Lissie Palathingal, Medical Superintendent and included Dr. Heena, Obstetrics & Gynecology, Laparoscopic and Cancer Surgeon; Dr. Bimaldeep Singh, Cosmetic Dentist; Dr. Anila Sharma, Senior Consultant Radiologist; Dr. Gursimran, General Surgeon, Bariatric Surgeon, Laparoscopic Surgeon; Dr. Tarandeep Singh, Cardiologist; Dr. Jagpal Pandher, Rheumatologist; and Dr. Gurmeen Garg, Pathologist.

Dr. Lissie Palathingal, as a moderator, started the discussion with urgent need to make women conscious about their health and self-care. “Rather than only looking beautiful for the sake of others, women must spend more time on their health aspect and get regular health checks along with their husbands.” Dr Heena echoed the same sentiments while highlighting the challenges faced by women especially in her menopausal phase.  “Taking care of yourself doesn’t mean me first. It means me too. And when women take care of their health, they become their best friends. On this Women’s day, I would say that let’s break the bias and educate women about women’s rights whether it be rights at their workplace or regarding their health and family by doing various awareness programmers and supporting each other as being women themselves is a superpower.”

Discussing a susceptible topic, breast cancer Dr. Anila Sharma, Senior Consultant Radiologist talked about the importance of awareness and screening tests. “The screening or diagnostic test for breast cancer is called mammography. And the main aim is to detect it as early as possible. This is because the smaller it is, the more effective the treatment. There are different age groups according to which we assign which type of test the patient should get.”

Dr. Gurmeen, a Pathologist at Apollo Clinic, Chandigarh, shed some light on the type of tests a woman should get. She also had a brief discussion about anaemia in women. “When it comes to health, women are less conscious and neglect their health. The self-sacrificing of women is a reality, especially in India. When this behavior grows to ignore one’s health, the situation can go from okay to bad. A healthy and fit woman will be better equipped to aid and nurture others, and all this is possible with awareness and regular health checkups”, said Dr. Gurmeen.

Addressing the causes of pains and aches in the body, Dr. Jagpal says, “The good health and the healthy living that we talk about or that we wish to achieve, majority of these journeys depends on physical activity. Women over the years go through so many changes physically. The female body also suffers certain deficiencies during these transitions. So to be a woman, the first thing you should do is to get a health check-up.”

Dr. Tarandeep, the senior Cardiologist added to the meaningful conversation, “No beauty shines brighter than that with a good heart. Take care of your heart, and don’t let it fall apart. Don’t ignore your symptoms and get your regular health checks done because a woman’s heart is, after all, a beautiful gift of God.” He also explained and cleared misconceptions related to women with heart diseases.

Dr. Bimaldeep Singh added, “Women is the skilled architects of society”. He even explained why pregnant women should not neglect their dental health. “Sometimes women are not even aware of the changes in their body, regular checkups can help them be safe. And nothing is stronger than a healthy woman.”

Dr. Gursimran added, “A significant amount of the population suffers from Obesity. We have medicines for hypertension, diabetes, but none for obesity. Obesity in women should not be neglected.”

Dr Rishi Mangat, Diabetologist, General physician, and Managing Director at Apollo Clinic, Chandigarh, also shared her views on how informative sessions like this clears the misinformation and supports the spread of awareness. She applauded the role of SimpliHealth portal and their social media in sharing authentic information and helping women prioritize their health.

The authentic information from our expert panellists is a trusted source of information, hoping to help all women prioritize their health. An informative session like this clears the misinformation and supports the spread of awareness.

New Delhi (India), March 9: Haber, an India based AI startup, steps into the MENA market with its industry-transforming technology. Haber develops AI-driven solutions which automate the tedious manual process of sample collection, measurement, analysis and intervention at factories.

With the economy booming and pacing up, the introduction of AI has become inevitable to achieve maximum efficiency. The process manufacturing industry, which includes pulp and paper, metals and mining, sugar, breweries and others has been no exception to this. There is a need to get rid of cumbersome and error-prone manual processes to grow in the current environment. Haber’s AI-based plug and play solution perfectly serves the needs of the industry and ensures maximum output. It has reduced the time and errors arising due to manual testing and dosing.

Haber has raised a funding of $27 million to date through three rounds of funding and is backed by Accel, Elevation Capital, Ascent Capital, Beenext, Temasek Partner Mukul Chawla and the founders of Grey Orange.

boundaries.Haber envisions building a strong team, clientele base and deploying over 200 eLIXAs in this region in the next 2 years. Haber’s expansion is the perfect example of how delivering value to the customer can make a business grow across geographical.

Haber builds AI solutions to drive sustainability. Based out of Pune, they primarily serve the process manufacturing industry. They automate processes, utilities, and water systems.
