~Paralympian and PUMA Athlete Avani Lekhara’s lifelike mannequin makes a debut across the brand’s stores~

New Delhi (India), March 9: Sports brand PUMA India took a significant step this Women’s Day by adding diverse mannequins at its stores across the country. As part of this initiative, the brand also created a tribute mannequin of gold medalist rifle shooter and PUMA athlete Avani Lekhara to celebrate her achievements.

The brand identified and shortlisted four female shoppers of varying body types to participate in the initiative, wherein mannequin molds were created as per their exact measurements. Historically in retail, mannequins have always been tailored to look a particular way, and this move by PUMA aims to shatter society’s rigid beauty standards and ideal body expectations.

Sharing his views on the campaign, Abhishek Ganguly, Managing Director, Puma India & Southeast Asia, said, “Our mannequins are a representation of PUMA’s belief in breaking stereotypes, boosting sports and health, and creating a culture of liberation. As a brand, PUMA wants to stand for everyone. Our apparel in both performance and lifestyle adapts to women of all shapes and makes them feel good. I am positive that this initiative will kickstart a perception-change in the country.” He added, “We are honored to create a tribute mannequin for PUMA Athlete Avani Lekhara. She is an inspiration and a role model for young women of the country, and this is our way of celebrating her achievements.”

Speaking about the campaign, Avani Lekhara said, “It’s a humbling experience for me to see my own mannequin. I am touched and honored by this gesture. PUMA’s significant move as these mannequins symbolize what women look like. PUMA has always been at the forefront of inclusion and diversity. I am glad the brand has taken this ground-breaking step of representing everyday women through a diverse range of mannequins. One-size-fits all is a myth, and I hope this empowers women to celebrate their individuality.”

At present, PUMA India has installed the new mannequins across 24 stores located in Mumbai, Delhi, Bengaluru, Hyderabad, Vadodara, Guwahati, Goa, Pune, Vadodara, Gurugram, Jalandhar, Chandigarh and Ahmedabad. The assortment of mannequins will also be rolled out to other PUMA stores over the year.

New Delhi (India), March 8: The Corrugated Box Industry in the country with 400+ Automatic Corrugators & more than 10,000 Semi-automatic Units, mostly in MSME sector, is facing immense stress on account of the unprecedented cost escalations and resultant supply dislocation over last 2 years. The situation has aggravated as the prices of all grades of kraft have gone up by almost 25% in recent months, thus taking total increase to almost Rs. 20 per kg over last 2 years.

Some of the recent developments behind the current crisis: –

Imported Waste Cuttings: Mr. Sanjay Rajgarhia, President – ICCMA informed that  One of the major raw materials for Kraft paper mills has more than tripled in last 2 years – from around US $ 100 pmt to US $330 pmt now. Containers’ Freight has multiplied almost 4x and Logistics dislocations on top are creating stock-out situations. Domestic waste paper prices are also shooting up in line with imported waste cuttings adding fuel to the fire.

Levy of Customs Duty on Imported Waste Cuttings: To make matters worse, in the recent Budget of 2022, Govt. of India levied 2.5% customs duty on imports of all types of waste cuttings.

Energy Prices: Oil prices have crossed $100 and Coal prices is trending upwards sharply once again. Freight and Transportation costs are taking the full brunt of energy cost hikes as a result of Energy crisis.

Other Inputs: Starch cost has skyrocketed and the price of the same has increased by almost Rs. 8 per kg in last 4/ 5 months. Similarly, other inputs like ink, wire, etc. are going up in sync with the strong upcycle in all commodities. Conversion cost of box units have raised by almost 50% after including increases in Starch & Manpower cost, stated Mr. Kirit Modi, President Emeritus – ICCMA.

GST Increase on Corrugated Boxes from 12% to 18% w.e.f. 1st Oct 2021 Combined with Kraft paper and other input cost hikes, this was the last thing which has broken the back of the Industry. Box Units need to raise almost 50% additional Working Capital funds to even sustain current level of operations.

International Kraft Paper and Pulp Prices are at all-time high- Besides taking massive price increases, all International Paper and Pulp Mills are fully booked and quoting longer lead times.

Corrugated Box is an eco-friendly Industry that consumes about 7.5 million MT per year of Recycled Kraft Paper and produces 100% Recyclable Corrugated boxes to constitute a market of Rs. 40,000 Crores.

The Industry employs a workforce over 7 Lakhs and plays a key role in the Indian Economy by enabling the smooth functioning of supply chains for Essential Goods, which is particularly critical in these volatile times.

APPEAL from Indian Corrugated Box Industry

ICCMA (Indian Corrugated Case Manufacturers Association) on behalf of entire Corrugated Box Industry is appealing to its’ esteemed clients to save Corrugated Box Industry by granting at least 20% on the total cost of boxes, according to Mr. Harish Madan, Vice President to cover the hikes in Kraft paper prices and conversion inputs to remain viable.

The Corrugated Box Industry’s healthy growth is of vital importance, not only to keep all manufactured goods supplied with sustainable packaging but, also essential for furthering our honourable Prime Minister’s cherished   dream of MAKE IN INDIA.

Mr. Vinay Kanth Korapati, Founder of Business Mint says, raising women in the workforce should be viewed as a commercial requirement rather than a social reform by corporate executives. For success, commitment must begin at the top be visible, tracked, and assessed. The policies that support this advocacy of equality must then be aligned, and this must go beyond compliance and analytics. Collaboration with internal and external systems is required at every level for success. It is an honour to recognize the Nationwide Women Excellence Awards 2022, and we hope to continue to honour the winners in this area every year. Regardless, these pioneer women have dedicated themselves to victory.

Business Mint is the one-stop destination to serve organizations and entrepreneurs for their professional advancement through research and recognition approaches. Business Mint is a platform for associations and businesspeople where individuals get acknowledgment for their diligent effort.

New Delhi [India], March 8: Magnet 07 Marketing Solutions, a leading digital marketing agency headquartered in New Delhi, is expanding its footprint across the country in 2022 with the establishment of new offices in Prayagraj, Bareilly and Lucknow.

Magnet 07 has worked with over 200 national and International brands since it’s inception six years ago. The company’s portfolio includes well-known brands across various industry verticals, including hospitality, retail, fast-moving consumer goods, education, information technology, and food and beverage. Started with an investment of 1 million in 2016, the Delhi based agency is projecting a business of 20 million by the end of FY 2022-23.

Hiba Rumi, founder, and CEO of Magnet 07 Marketing Solutions said, “At 22 years, I started a job as a copywriter and content strategist for a renowned ad agency and worked for unicorn start-ups as well as fortune 500 companies. The experience inspired me to start my own digital marketing agency, MAGNET 07, financed and supported by my parents.”

“Our first client was hesitant to sign up a fresh start up. When asked why should they choose Magnet07, my reply was honest ‘Because we are desperate to grow and you’ll give us a chance to prove our competence in the market. You’ll be our testimonial for the next company we approach.’ It is this honesty that has helped me bring the company to where it stands today.”

Hiba stated that the overcrowded digital marketing sector was offering below-average quality work. At most mid & small scale agencies, design and communication weren’t given the relevance they truly hold in making a campaign successful. Magnet 07 was conceptualized to fill this gap in the market and it is for this reason that today it is one of the fast growing names in the industry.

March 8: In times of crisis, some of the most crucial things one needs are hope & spiritual guidance. The Wise Oak exists as this very support system for people, especially for modern women, to help them ace at life while also healing their hearts, minds, body & soul.

This opened doors to new perspectives and thinking patterns that led to self-discovery, acceptance and an abundance of self-love. Seeing this as her purpose in life, Pooja launched The Wise Oak with an intention to share her intuitive gifts.

Despite being a fairly recent venture and a bootstrap company, The Wise Oak is personally serving over 1000 customers around the globe today.

The Wise Oak, and Pooja, have earned several awards and accreditations including the Women Business Diva Award and Entrepreneur of the Year 2021 Award in the recent past.

The name ‘The Wise Oak’ comes from the Oaktree, which is seen as a symbol of spirituality and wisdom. In many cultures, Oaks are also believed to be spiritual guardians that hold healing powers for the heart and soul, providing comfort and solace. The Wise Oak was started with the sole intention to help women become their best versions by inculcating evidence-based, tested and invasive natural therapies and healing models. With a focus on leading them towards spiritual alternatives to well-being and health, The Wise Oak uses intuitive sciences to bring awakening, stability & guidance with its basket of services.

The workshop training techniques are also influenced by Pooja’s training under the mentorship of some eminent gurus and coaches such as Jack Canfield, Bruce Lipton, Richard Bandler, Derek Rydall, Yoga Mastro Kia Miller.

“I want to help women free themselves of limiting beliefs and deeply rooted energy blocks. Through this platform, I want to make Spirituality simple and accessible to the Aquarian age people. The Wise Oak is the bridge between people seeking spiritual guidance and their journey towards self-discovery” says Pooja.

Pooja believes that to proceed with a self-healing journey, it is important to be in touch with your inner knowing. In line with these ideas, the programs focus on a holistic learning method that includes self-discovery, emotional wellness and goal-manifestation. Pooja’s efforts are aimed at helping women gravitate towards their higher selves and grow intuitively. She assists them with overcoming issues such as anxiety, work stress, family issues, relationship crisis, PTSD, codependency and more, by discovering practical real-time solutions.

Through this venture, and its range of personalized sessions, workshops and communication platforms, Pooja is inspiring innumerous people to embark on a self-healing journey with her.

March 8: Insecurity, fear of losing out on profits, wired emotions have always been a part of the crypto space. It was just a few years back investors, traders, and individuals were being vocal about exchanging virtual assets to participate in this chain of decentralized finance. The chain has been holding onto a deluge of community ushering productivity and innovation. A glimpse of one such innovation is CIFDAQ.

The best thing about the popularity of crypto trading is that it is no more gender dominated but Gender Neutral in recent times. As per a report by BockFi, 45 % of Women now know how to buy crypto, Ethereum is the most popular crypto among the female investors and Karnataka constitutes 30% of women crypto users followed by 12 % in Maharashtra and 10 % in Delhi. This speaks volumes how an inclusive trading space can fine tune the approach for women to explore the crypto space.

Last month on 22nd of February, spot trading by CIFDAQ was thrown open to the world, with over 34+ crypto assets like BTC, ETH, LTC, DOGE, MATIC, DOT, SHIB, ATOM, ALGO, BNB, LUNA, SAND, ADA, and many more. It bestowed upon its traders with an opportunity to make a space for their choice of virtual assets and to make a fruitful investment.

“Crypto as far as we might be concerned has been constructed not exclusively on blockchain yet in addition to a solid community. We Women have the innate qualities to build a stronger community. This is the ideal opportunity for us to gather and take part in crypto space with a perspective on accumulating financial freedom and bridling our inborn range of abilities.”- Sheetal Maradiya (Chief Information Technology Officer – CIFDAQ)

What makes CIFDAQ a novel concept is the fact that it is the first-of-its-kind Exchange which is a Mix Breed, Cross Assets, Integrated Trading platform, that is, it is a platform which facilitates an individual to trade several assets across various Verticals. CIFDAQ is the only exchange in the world in which the subscriber could trade Stocks, Crypto currencies, Derivatives to Gold Bonds, Perpetual Contracts, Fiat currencies, etc.

A Dive Through Products That CIFDAQ Offers

With the Exchange being open to Spot Trading of more than 34 Crypto currencies, individuals have the option to trade in any Crypto currency they desire to. CIFDAQ also has a crypto currency of its own, CIFD. The CIFD Token has intrinsic as well as extrinsic qualities, which means, it acts as a mode of payment within the Exchange and can be used to purchase various services offered by the platform, and furthermore, the company is taking the necessary steps to ensure that CIFD can be used as a mode of payment outside the Exchange too, in sectors like Gold, Healthcare, Pharmacy, E-Commerce and Logistics etc.

Spot Trading is available on the platform, but in addition to this, the availability of Synthetic Tickers on the Exchange in future will also allow an individual to trade in Synthetic Assets. A synthetic asset acts as a derivative to the actual assets, and therefore, an individual who trades in synthetic assets does need to trade in the actual Asset, but trade contracts which follow the price of the Asset, without actually ever owning the asset.

The Exchange also boasts of a cutting-edge technology in the form of AI Powered Trading BOTs, which are entirely cloud based and automated. These BOTS, which are out of the purview of manipulation or intervention by any central authority, are advanced enough to enable an individual to earn passive income, even if the individual is new to the world of trading, and knows little to nothing about trading.

Safety And Security – A No Compromise Notion

Safety and security is given utmost importance at CIFDAQ, and therefore, their very own Crypto currency, CIFD is also based on Ethereum blockchain. The Company is also creating their own blockchain to ensure additional safety features, keeping in mind the myths and misconceptions that exist regarding investing and trading in Crypto currencies.

The Crypto currency Inventory is also stored in a Decentralized database cluster, which is then further spread across various servers, with each server requiring its own write permission. This also ensures retrieval of data from a single server even if the smooth functioning of other servers is compromised.

CIFDAQ also offers a unique service of Fantasy pairing. Unlike the existing Pairs offered in Dual Trading in the Exchanges that exist today, CIFDAQ has the option of Fantasy Trading, which allows the subscriber to trade with any Fantasy Pair he desires to. The Exchange also offers the option of Trading Triplets, a unique concept which enables the subscriber to trade in not just a Pair of two assets, but three assets.

Initiation And Idea Behind CIFDAQ

When asked how he envisioned CIFDAQ, Mr. Himanshu Maradiya, the Founder and CEO of CIFDAQ stated, “The need for a platform where a person could trade across various Verticals, where he has the freedom to pair his Assets the way he desires, where an uninitiated trader could earn, and where any inhibitions a person has about safety of their assets are eradicated is how CIFDAQ came into being.”

The meticulous understanding and providing of tangible solutions for the existing problems in the trading ecosystem was the idea behind CIFDAQ, and looking at the products and services the Exchange offers, it would be fair to assume that the promises made are being fulfilled. As the motto of the Company states, “CIFD – A Token that talks, and CIFDAQ – An Exchange that speaks’ ‘, and it speaks volumes about the solutions provided.
