New Delhi [India], January 21: Only a handful of brands and businesses today have reached the forefront of their respective niches and have stood unique from the rest. Ever wondered what could be the reasons helping these brands shine brighter than others in usually competitive business markets? Among a myriad of reasons, one factor that has remained a defining factor for success for many is the brand’s authenticity. Priti Singh, a founder, beautypreneur, and the heart and soul behind the brand Charmbelleza Cosmetics says, “When you build your brand from the ground up and infuse in its honesty and authenticity, you feel confident that it will reach most people across demographics and resonate with them well enough to inspire them to buy those products.”

At Charmbelleza Cosmetics, Priti Singh and her team of passionate professionals are dedicated to revolutionising people’s beauty routines with 100% vegetarian and cruelty-free products. The brand has grown as a beauty brand designed specifically for the modern millennial woman and has excelled in delivering long-wear makeup and effective skincare solutions that exceed expectations. Silk foundation, banana powder, magic drops, lipstick, silicon primer, dual eye shadow, or liquid eyeliner, Charmbelleza Cosmetics offers it all at cost-effective prices.

Charmbelleza Cosmetics offers products for lips(lipsticks), eyes (eyeshadow and eyeliner), face (foundation, primer, drop, and powder),  combos and many more. The brand has been making a lot of noise in the cosmetics sector as a made-in-India brand because it is 100% vegetarian and cruelty-free, with long-lasting formulas free from parabens and sulfates, inclusive and trend-driven, and authentic and distinctive. The website’s interface is also quite easy to understand.

Speaking about what ignited the fire within her to start a brand like Charmbelleza Cosmetics, Priti Singh said, “I saw a gap in the beauty industry when I noticed more and more brands only offering unsafe and chemically-driven products. I felt the need to break this industry pattern and offer people something that could work on their skin while being safe. This ignited the fire within me to start something as meaningful as Charmbelleza Cosmetics, offering safe, vegan and natural products made in India for all types of people.”

Recalling the challenges, she said how they worked on a salary basis and gathered some money to start a couple of businesses, such as a unisex salon and a mobile cover online website; however, nothing worked for them. Later, finding purpose in the beauty and cosmetics world changed their perspective as they realised most of the products were sourced from China and other countries in India. This inspired them to start selling Indian cosmetics, fully vegan at a nominal cost, emphasising Indians using an Indian brand.

Offering Indian and vegan products at affordable rates, Charmbelleza Cosmetics has already created quite a buzz in the industry. Priti Singh, the founder, aims to see the brand at the top, competing with others in the industry. Charmbelleza shines as a perfect made-in-India cosmetics brand where luxury meets accessibility and affordability.

New Delhi [India], January 21: We all know shares can be legally bought and traded in two markets, the primary and secondary markets. The Securities Exchange Board of India regulates and controls both markets. In the Primary Market, shares of companies are first launched to potential investors. The shares are then listed on the stock exchange for free trading.

Do you know there’s another informal market that works on the basis of trust? SEBI does not control it.

This blog will tell us about a second market that we previously mentioned.

What is Grey Market

Grey market is an informal, closed and unofficial market without any general rules. The IPO GMP is based on the principle of trust. It is not regulated.

The grey market is not a formal exchange. It is an unofficial and therefore not regulated market. Transactions are private. Investors are responsible for all risks involved in trading on such a market. Unregistered dealers are used to assist in the trading. IPO GMP/GMP should be a concept that you understand if you’re interested in IPOs. Learn about the grey-market premium.

What is a Grey Market Premium?

IPO GMP is the premium at which shares can be traded at in the IPO gray market. It is the stock traded in the secondary or primary market after a company has launched its IPO.

We will use an example to better understand the GMP for IPOs. Imagine a company called X Ltd. launched its IPO at Rs 200. The grey market premium is Rs 10 When the IPO period ends, it is presumed that the shares will be listed at Rs 210. It may not always work this way.

How does the Grey Market Work?

You can earn money on the grey market in two different ways:

• You can trade shares in the gray market before they are listed on the stock exchange.
• Your IPO application can be sold to earn money

Let us discuss each of these methods separately.

Grey market trading types

Buying/Selling IPO Shares in the Grey Market before they are listed on the Stock Exchange

• You can apply for the shares that are offered at the IPO. When you apply for the IPO, you take on certain risks. You may not receive any shares or they may be listed below the issue price. You are referred to as a seller.
• Let’s say that your friends believe the shares are worth more than their original issue price. Your friends will begin to accumulate these shares before the allocation of IPO shares. Your friends are called buyers in this situation.
• Your friends will order IPO shares with the help of dealers on the grey market. Your friends want to  pay a premium for the IPO shares.
• The dealers on the grey market then contact you. You may be asked to sell your shares at a certain premium.
• Say you’re not prepared to take on the risks associated with an IPO. You’re tempted by the high premium that is offered. You decide to sell the shares to the dealer. You record your gains. You will need to agree on a price with the seller before you can book the deal.
• You have now given the dealer the information. He will tell your friends about it. He will tell them that he bought a certain number of shares.
• The allotment is now complete. You might or might not be allocated any shares based on the IPO allotment status.
• If you received the shares as part of the allocation process, the dealers on the grey market may contact you.
• You may be asked to sell shares at a certain price. You may also be asked to transfer your shares onto someone else’s Demat Account.
• The settlement for your sale of shares may be determined by two factors. You can choose between 1) the profit or loss that you have incurred 2) the GMP where you and your friends are transacting
• Let’s imagine that you didn’t get any shares at allotment. No settlement can be made. This is how the IPO gray market trades shares.

Grey market IPOs: Buying and Selling IPO Applications

• The same as the trading of Initial Offering’s applications, both buyers and sellers are involved. You and your friends.
• You and your friends will determine the price of the application based on market conditions.
• You may receive a call from a friend who says they are interested in purchasing your Offerings app for a certain amount or premium.
• You can sell your application at a premium to any of your friends through a grey-market dealer if you want to be secure.
• You don’t have to worry about getting shares in an IPO. You will still receive the GMP if your application is not approved during the allocation process.
• You will need to send an application form. The dealer will tell your friend that you sold him the application at a certain premium.
• You may or may be able to get shares at the time of allotment.
• Imagine you receive shares as part of the allocation process. You will have two choices. You might be asked to transfer your shares to someone’s Demat or to trade them at a certain premium.
• The settlement of shares is based on gains or losses.
• If you did not receive any shares, then the deal is automatically cancelled.
• You can still  get the premium you received when you exchanged the application.

This is how the grey market operates.

How does GMP work for IPOs?

Calculating GMP is not difficult. Let us say the price of XYZ’s IPO was Rs 900 per share. The GMP is 100 Rs. The shares of the organization are then expected to be listed at Rs 1000. The value of the GMP varies every day depending on the demand for shares.

We can therefore calculate the value of an share’s GMP by: GMPR = Grey Market premium * number of shares

Final Words

The grey market premium is a way to determine the performance of an IPO after its listing. It is only a guide and not a guarantee of accuracy. It would be helpful if you took into consideration that the activities are very risky. You should only engage in these activities after thorough research and analysis.

New Delhi [India], January 18: At AutoExpo 2025, DELLORTO is emphasizing its DN4. The focus is on four key aspects that define its strong Italian identity, which continues to evoke emotions. More importantly, it seeks to share these emotions with its world—a universe made up of passionate motor enthusiasts, friends, and brand partners, as well as all the visitors who will liven up the stand during the event.

An ideal journey through our products, the most innovative items of today, and the technologies of the near future.

The stand will feature vehicles equipped with DELLORTO products, such as the Aprilia 457 and the FANTIC ISSIMO CITY L1 electric scooter.

AutoExpo is the occasion to witness another evolution of the products that have made history and shaped the brand: a new carburettor named after its creator, Eng. Giuseppe Dell’Orto, the company’s president: PHDG

DELLORTO’s booth will be divided into 4 main areas: Motorsport, Injection, Electric, and Aftermarket.

These elements intertwine to create the double helix of the DELLORTO DN4, which runs along the walls of the stand for visitors to explore at AutoExpo 2025. It’s a world of passion for motors in continuous evolution.

DELLORTO FOR TOMORROW’S MOBILITY

At AUTO EXPO 2025, DELLORTO will showcase its history and passion for motorsports, presented through four thematic areas: Motorsport, Injection, Electric, and Aftermarket.

Throttle bodies, electronic control units, fuel pumps, and a wide range of products linked to the E-POWER project.

1. MOTORSPORT

For DELLORTO, Motorsport is the ultimate testing ground for developing innovative and sustainable solutions. From the throttle bodies of the Aprilia MotoGP to those used in the Porsche GT3 Supercup, from Kart carburettors to the ECU for Moto3, DELLORTO continually supports the development and adoption of renewable fuel-based solutions. In parallel, it remains a key partner in the MotoE championship, which represents the pinnacle of electric propulsion in motorcycling. This simultaneous commitment to both combustion and electric motors reflects the company’s strategy of providing new solutions for electromobility while also strengthening its position in the combustion engine sector.

2. INJECTION

DELLORTO supports the evolution of combustion engines towards zero environmental impact while maintaining the soul and character that excite all motorcyclists. The new ride-by-wire system finally makes solutions available, even for small and medium-sized single and two-cylinder motorbikes that were previously reserved for high-end multi-cylinder motorbikes. In 2025, the current ride-by-cable system will also be updated with the introduction of riding modes, alongside the debut of a Lite version designed for simpler and more affordable applications. The development of throttle bodies continues with unique solutions like innovative bypass systems or oval throttles with aerodynamic shafts. These are just a few examples of innovations that combine smooth operation with quick response and low emissions with high performance, ensuring success not just on the track but also on the road. DELLORTO’s fuel supply modules are future-proof, capable of handling fuels with up to 30% ethanol, and are used in a wide range of applications, from small scooters to large motorcycles. Another key aspect is the gradual phase-out of fossil fuels. In 2024, the DoPOWER 1.0 ECU for Moto3 managed engines running on 40% defossilized fuels, and starting in 2025, DELLORTO injection systems will be mass-produced for fuels containing up to 20% renewable sources—a first but crucial step towards the mobility of the future.

3. ELECTRIC

DELLORTO is expanding its range of solutions for electric mobility, covering a power and range spectrum that meets all urban mobility needs, from scooters to lightweight transport vehicles, including three- and four-wheeled vehicles.

The three strengths of DELLORTO’s electric offerings are low voltage (below 60V), air cooling, and a modular, scalable architecture that facilitates vehicle integration.

The VID product family (VCU-Inverter-DC/DC) integrates vehicle control, electric motor CONTROLLER  and a 12V onboard network converter into a single device.

VID is the “carburettor” of an Electric Vehicle, and Dellorto present it in 3 SIZEs able to follow a scalable vehicle configuration: VID165 – VID250 – VID360, from 45km/h up to 100km/h

Removable batteries can be conveniently charged from a regular household socket, thanks to chargers available in two power sizes to meet every need.

With the sophisticated Battery Management System (BMS), up to 8 batteries can be used in parallel in a coordinated manner, providing greater autonomy or power for vehicles that require it.
These solutions developed for urban mobility have also found applications in adjacent sectors where DELLORTO has applied an automotive approach: Industrial, Agriculture, Logistics, and Energy storage.
Thanks to the experience gained in the development of lithium batteries for traction, DELLORTO now offers 12V lithium starter batteries that are lightweight, compact, and equipped with BMS that communicate with the vehicle.

DELLORTO believes that in the future, the majority of engines will feature some form of electrification, and the ongoing developments lay the foundation for acquiring the necessary know-how to meet the challenges of sustainable mobility.

4. AFTERMARKET

The carburettor, named PHDG, was conceived, designed, and championed by the engineer Giuseppe Dell’Orto, the company’s current president. Notably, the last two letters of the new carburettor’s name are his initials—a tribute from the entire DELLORTO family to their President. Born in 1940, Giuseppe Dell’Orto holds a degree in mechanical engineering and grew up professionally in foundries and machine shops. He has been the driving force of the company for over 50 years, with a lifelong passion for engines that led him to follow in the footsteps of his father and uncles, the company’s founders. Today, as President, he is still at the forefront, actively supporting the third generation in managing the company and creating new products like the PHDG carburettor.

«The idea behind this year’s AUTOEXPO is essentially tied to who we are and what we do. Even when considering the challenges of the future, it is unimaginable to succeed without combining the skills, knowledge, and strengths we have developed over more than 90 years of activity.

For us, the DN4 DELLORTO, represented at the fair by all our products, the vehicles they equip, and the emotions they bring to our many supporters and brand friends, is a process made possible by both past and present technologies and the invaluable know-how derived from our global team and the valuable partnerships we’ve built over time.

All of these are essential ingredients in creating the products of tomorrow, united by the red thread of passion for motors and the quality of a product that is international but proudly Made in Italy. These emotions have been carried by our family-run brand for three generations and are now being directed towards a future that is as challenging as it is fascinating.

New Delhi [India], January 17: With the advent of technology, a growing economy, and an increasing number of market participants, a broad array of investment options are available for small investors ranging from traditional tools like Fixed Deposits and gold to more recent options like Real Estate Investment Trusts and Alternative Investment Funds. Selecting an optimal investment tool is challenging for small investors who seek a balance between security, accessibility, and returns.

A comparative analysis of popular investment options based on ranking and suitability for small investors in India from a range of academic and industry literature.

• Fixed Deposits (FDs): Fixed Deposits have long been a preferred choice for Indian investors due to their security and guaranteed returns (Rani & Kumari, 2018). FDs are offered by banks and post offices, generally providing interest rates between 5-7% annually. Scholars argue that FDs remain popular because they provide predictable returns and are easy to understand, making them accessible even to novice investors (Kumar et al., 2020). However, Rani and Kumari (2018) note that while FDs offer stability, they may not always keep pace with inflation, which can erode real returns over time.

• Mutual Funds (MFs): Mutual funds have gained traction among small investors in India, especially with the introduction of the Systematic Investment Plan (SIP) route, which allows low minimum investments (Gupta & Agarwal, 2019). Equity mutual funds, in particular, have been known to yield 10-15% annual returns over the long term, albeit with a degree of market volatility (Sharma et al., 2021). Literature suggests that mutual funds offer a middle ground, balancing risk and reward, and providing a variety of options (equity, debt, and hybrid funds) to suit different risk profiles (Nanda et al., 2019). Despite market risks, the SIP approach has been noted for instilling discipline among investors, a feature that makes mutual funds an appealing tool for small investors (Gupta & Agarwal, 2019).

• Gold: Gold has historically been a popular investment in India due to its intrinsic value and cultural significance (Patel & Joshi, 2020). In recent years, options like digital gold, sovereign gold bonds, and gold ETFs have further diversified this asset class, making it accessible to small investors (Patel & Joshi, 2020). Studies suggest that gold acts as a hedge against inflation and currency fluctuations, offering long-term returns of around 8-10% (Khan & Srivastava, 2018). However, while gold provides security and tangibility, some scholars caution that it lacks the growth potential of equities (Patel & Joshi, 2020).

• Direct Equity (Stocks): With the rise of digital trading platforms, direct equity has become increasingly accessible to retail investors (Mehta, 2021). Investing in stocks can yield substantial returns, with blue-chip stocks historically offering 10-15% annual gains (Verma & Yadav, 2019). However, Mehta (2021) emphasizes that equity investing requires a strong understanding of market dynamics and risk tolerance, as stocks are highly volatile. Direct equity appeals to those willing to engage in active portfolio management, but it may be unsuitable for risk-averse investors (Verma & Yadav, 2019).

• Unlisted Securities (Private Equity, Startups): Investing in unlisted securities has recently attracted attention due to the rise of the startup culture in India (Sharma et al., 2021). However, unlisted securities have high entry requirements, liquidity issues, and require sophisticated analysis, making them less accessible to small investors (Rajesh, 2020). Literature suggests that while these investments can offer high returns, they carry substantial risks and are best suited for experienced investors with high capital (Sharma et al., 2021).

• Real Estate (REITs and Small Properties): Real estate is a traditional investment avenue, but high capital requirements have typically made it inaccessible to small investors. The introduction of Real Estate Investment Trusts (REITs) has mitigated this barrier, allowing investors to participate in the real estate market with smaller amounts (Garg & Sharma, 2020). REITs offer moderate returns in the range of 7-12% and provide exposure to the real estate sector without the need to buy property outright (Garg & Sharma, 2020). Despite this, real estate investments remain sensitive to economic cycles, and scholars suggest that small investors may find REITs more appropriate than direct real estate purchases (Garg & Sharma, 2020).

• Alternative Investment Funds (AIFs): Alternative Investment Funds cater primarily to high-net-worth individuals due to their high minimum investment requirements (typically ₹1 crore or more) (Singh & Bansal, 2019). These funds cover a wide array of investment strategies, including hedge funds and venture capital, which can yield substantial returns but carry significant risks (Singh & Bansal, 2019). Literature indicates that AIFs are less suitable for small investors due to their complexity, risk level, and high entry barriers (Rajesh, 2020).

• Derivatives (Futures and Options): Derivatives are complex financial instruments generally used by sophisticated investors with high risk tolerance (Mehta, 2021). These instruments offer the potential for high returns but are known for extreme volatility, making them unsuitable for most small investors. Researchers agree that derivatives are better suited for traders with advanced knowledge, as they can lead to substantial losses if market movements are misjudged (Verma & Yadav, 2019).

• Fine Art and Collectibles: Fine art and collectibles represent a niche investment category with limited accessibility due to high capital needs and the expertise required for valuation (Rajesh, 2020). These assets are highly illiquid, and while they may appreciate over time, their value is difficult to predict and is often subject to market trends (Sharma et al., 2021). Most scholars agree that fine art and collectibles are unsuitable for small investors, given the challenges in valuation, liquidity, and storage costs (Rajesh, 2020).

Dr. Ratish Gupta, Chartered Marketer (CIM UK) and Director, Wealth Wisdom India Pvt Ltd. suggests, “Based on critical review of literature, Fixed Deposits, Mutual Funds, and Gold emerge as the most suitable investment tools for small investors in India, providing a balance between security, accessibility, and returns (Rani & Kumari, 2018; Gupta & Agarwal, 2019). While riskier options such as Direct Equity and Real Estate (through REITs) offer higher growth potential, they are more suited to investors with a higher risk tolerance (Mehta, 2021). Investments such as AIFs, derivatives, and fine art appeal primarily to experienced or wealthy investors and are generally unsuitable for small investors seeking low-risk, easily accessible options (Singh & Bansal, 2019).”

By understanding the characteristics and risks associated with each investment tool, small investors can make informed decisions that align with their financial goals and risk tolerance. With a balanced approach to risk and a clear investment horizon, small investors can build a robust portfolio that not only protects their capital but also enables capital growth over time.

Kolkata (West Bengal) [India], January 18: Kolkata came together in a spirited celebration to honour the 162nd birth anniversary of Swami Vivekananda, a revered spiritual leader whose teachings resonate across generations.

Eleven students from Treasures of Innocence, dressed as Swami Vivekananda, led the march, embodying the youth’s role in carrying forward his legacy. The procession included visually impaired participants whose determination inspired onlookers, as well as energetic dance performances by students. A standout moment was a heartfelt dance by Dancers’ Guild to the song “Bhengecho duwar esecho jyotirmoy,” which deeply moved the audience.

Prominent dignitaries graced the event and delivered impactful speeches on the contemporary relevance of Swami Vivekananda’s teachings. Among them were Swami Adipurushananda, Assistant Secretary of The Ramakrishna Mission Institute of Culture, Golpark; Dr. Andrew Fleming, British Deputy High Commissioner to East & North East India; Prof. Dr. Saikat Maitra, Former Vice Chancellor, MAKAUT.

Key partners such as Jivagram, Friends FM, Mio Amore, Tribeca Care, Banchbo Healing Touch Foundation, Dignity Foundation and Ramaesis played pivotal roles in ensuring the event’s success.

The event culminated in a solemn community walk to the Vivekananda Statue near FD Park, where participants paid homage with a garlanding ceremony. Jagriti Dham, luxurious old age home in kolkata, extended its gratitude with a vote of thanks and distributed goodie bags and refreshments, leaving participants with a sense of fulfillment and inspiration. Mr. Aninda Das, Vice President Marketing, Infinity Group, remarked, “Swami Vivekananda’s teachings inspire us to create a more inclusive and empowered society. This celebration is our humble attempt to honour his legacy and remind everyone of the power of unity and service.”
