His company is called Sun Pharmaceutical Industries. The facility, which was near Vapi in his home Gujarat and was only a short drive from Mumbai, produced only one psychiatric medication.

Besides, it is clear that Dilip, who comes from a background in business, did not have much knowledge of the pharmaceutical industry.

Since the COVID-19 event, the corporate world has changed significantly. Businesses are speeding up their digital transformation, and cybersecurity is crucial, given the rise in cyberattacks. Data has evolved into a company’s lifeblood, enabling it to enhance client experiences, reinvent its offerings, and drive efficiency and cost savings. While technology has always been necessary to safeguard data centres, cloud systems, servers, and digital devices, the future calls for new business models, advancements, and partnerships. Companies need sophisticated thinking and resources to strengthen their competitive edge and be digitally safe. For the surfacing security concerns, Claidroid Technologies can be a valuable ally.
AN UMBRELLA OF TARGETTED SOLUTIONS
Claidroid Technologies is renowned for its bespoke IT services that ensure complete digital transformation. Its offerings include DevOps, SecOps, DevSecOps, AIOps, and cloud services. But its niche lies in Enterprise Service Management (ServiceNow) and Enterprise Security (Identity and Access Management & Customer Identity and Access Management). Since the pandemic, remodeling workflow efficiency has been a priority to streamline processes for internal IT, employees, and customers, bringing company-wide operations. Simultaneously, it is essential to protect user credentials and passwords that are common network entry points for criminal hackers to plant ransomware or steal data. Claidroid ensures its clients have the upper hand against these challenges and are focused on increasing their Lastrevenue.but not least, the company also provides managed services to enhance business operations while reducing budgetary costs by cutting directly engaged people. Its services ensure the optimal business outcome with the ideal balance of on-site and offshore resources. The company has become a reputable name in the IT sector by offering targeted services at affordable prices. In a market rife with complexity, varied applications, and heterogeneous IT systems that make running a business stressful, Claidroid ensures clients receive value for money with its SLA-driven strategy.
REIMAGINING BUSINESS EFFICIENCY
In the last two years, the demand for customised IT services has outpaced that of the ten years prior. Even CIAM (Customer Identiy and Access Management) and ESM ( Enterprise Service Management) are now competitive solutions with significant demand. So, the obvious question is, “Why choose Claidroid?”
Founder CEO
Besides technology, he has a broad background in HR metrics. “I have spent many years in workforce diversity, employee retention, and talent acquisition, cultivating an interest in employee engagement,” says Mr. Sawarkar. The combination of innovation and people-centricity has helped him establish a people-centric culture at Claidroid. He engages with his team, understanding their concerns and help in nurturing their capabilities by sponsoring certification in relevant technologies. Under his leadership, Claidroid has developed into a diverse ecosystem with many possibilities to work on cutting-edge technology and undergo training.
WELL-DEFINED AND COMPETITIVE
Even though the company wants to pioneer with the solutions in compliance with the upcoming Data Protection Act, they have several proud wins. Claidroid has served multiple IT firms in India and abroad with its services, especially with ServiceNow implementations. They are also the leading partners of Ubisecure, which is their most proud milestone so far. Going forward, the firm is planning to expand to the US and Australia. There is an increasing demand for their services across these countries, and Claidroid plans to address them. Simultaneously, they strive to carve a niche in IT security through AI projects and others.
The CEO declares, “We are an agile and flexible company that can assist clients in implementing complicated yet secure solutions.” Claidroid is collaborating with leading global IT companies to put the solutions into use.
19 www.businessconnectindia.in | Vol. 5 | Issue 2 | September 2022 | INDIA engage with businesses online. In fact, this is the point at which clients entrust a business with their private data. Claidroid helps businesses safely collect and convert client data. They can also manage access to self-service account credentials, single sign-on (SSO), multi-factor authentication (MFA), support for external identity providers (IDPs) to speed up registration and login, delegated authority, and more by authenticating users and managing access in a compliant manner.
The platform can enable businesses to provide users with more value while lowering risk exposure from compliance and data privacy discrepancies while standardizing the handling of sensitive data. The CIAM solutions currently comply with GDPR laws in Europe and will help customers comply with the upcoming Data Protection Act requirements in India. “It will open up a world of opportunities for us in the public and private sectors, and our nation will acquire a strong defense against new cyberthreats,” asserts Mr. Sawarkar proudly.
THE MAN SPEARHEADING THE ENDEAVORS
The ESM service is not excluded either and according to Mr. Sawarkar, will be a big boon to IT behemoths planning to boost their automation. Its use necessitates a considerable degree of technical proficiency. But Claidroid’s goal is to assist businesses with workflow automation; as a result, it makes sure that ESM services are easy to use and boost overall efficiency.
FORESEEING A WELCOMING FUTURE
The core tenets of Claidroid are trust and integrity. These underlying principles enable them to abide by international regulatory standards. And they are instilled in its solutions too. Take the CIAM suite, for example. Identity and Access Management is the core security measure of a company. Let’s assume a company has DLP software or antivirus to ward off malware and other threats. But when a bunch of external users are trying to access a business network, a distinct identity verification mechanism should be in place. This is what Claidroid offers. Its CIAM solution is scalable to millions of customers. “We are the leading system integration partner of Ubisecure, the #1 CIAM platform in Europe, with two decades of experience in implementing on-premises/ cloud solutions for both the public and private sectors,” asserts Mr. Sawarkar.
The ESM service, as mentioned, helps businesses attain a crossfunctional operational model that interconnects the entire company. The service can streamline departmental activities to improve ROI by replacing the segmented approach. Claidroid has two ESM services: ServiceNow and SymphonySummit. These software suites are combined with industry-best innovations and automation with an on-premise cloud to cover the complete operational lifecycle, from installation, configuration, development of multiple processes, change management, and integration of the suite inside the ITIL framework.
“Strong and intellectual people can be beneficial, but adaptability to change is more crucial.” The dynamism of the world has changed substantially over the past two years. It has redefined leadership in addition to technology.
Today’s leaders value participation and teamwork as a tool for sharing ideas and making progress. The stakes are high, so leaders must be able to set direction, influence, and align people around a single objective while inspiring and committing them to action and holding them accountable for their results. The following characteristics of leadership are well visible in Mr. Sawarkar. A technologist by heart, he has been into innovation implementation throughout his career, starting from setting up a state-of-the-art data center for ISP operations based on the Microsoft MCIS platform, Portal real-time billing to Ascend modem racks, etc. He has worked to establish quality certifications, build sizable teams, and assured the successful completion of over 1000 projects across many nations using both onshore and offshore models.
“Our goal is to become our client’s preferred security and service management integration partner,” signs off the leader.
Ubisecure CIAM can be deployed in the cloud as a managed service or meet data geo-residence requirements by being deployed onpremises with the customer. Or it can be more of a hybrid approach where identity data and legacy applications remain on-premises, but the CIAM services are deployed in the cloud.
How to Develop (According to Science) An Attractive Personality Life gets a lot easier when you have an attractive personality and people like you. However, it is next to impossible to be liked by everyone; people have their own distinct tastes. But still, there are some traits which most people find attractive. What are they? After studying human behaviours for years scientists have come up with some traits which are more desirable than others and contribute to an attractive personality. In this article, we are sharing some tips on How to Build an Attractive Personality as per science. 1. Kindness is Appealing 2. Your Voice Pitch 3. Smell Your Best 4. Socializing in Groups 5. Good Sense of Humour 6. Action over Articulation 7. Develop a Positive Outlook 8. Respect Yourself Let’s know more about them in detail.
KINDNESS IS APPEALING: According to a study, it is wise to just be kind. Being kind is one of Good Personality Qualities, as our parents have been advising us for years. The study evaluated the attractiveness of photographs of 60 strangers with neutral facial expressions on three different groups of participants—a total of 120 persons, both men and women. Weeks later, the same participants saw the same images, but the researchers switched up the groups: One group read compliments written about each person in the image,
20www.businessconnectindia.in | Vol. 5 | Issue 2 | September 2022 | INDIA Lifestyle
Also, remember to take short rests every now and then. It’s critical, and it might even increase your motivation!
Do you complain a lot? Venting is OK. According to Angela Grice, a speech-language pathologist, “venting can help us gain perspective and give words to our thoughts.” The mere act of recognising your sentiments can help minimise your anxiety over them (Higgs, 2020).
SOCIALIZING IN GROUPS: According to a 2014 study, people appear more beautiful when they are seen socialising in a group. It is one of the Attractive Personality Traits in a Woman and Man equally. Though there are only ideas as to why this
The issue arises when you begin to get obsessed with something. Are you continuously mentioning it? Do your friends seem to be getting tired of it? Negatively worrying over something and doing nothing about it leads to a potentially worse mood for you and people around you. Instead of instantly starting complaining, try to develop a more hopeful, resilient attitude toward your challenges. When you need to do anything, do it as quickly as you can or as soon as your schedule allows. It is recommended that you complete your easier or more pressing chores first before moving on to another. You’ll feel terrific, productive, and relaxed as a result!
ACTION OVER ARTICULATION:
21 www.businessconnectindia.in | Vol. 5 | Issue 2 | September 2022 | INDIA
and the other group saw criticisms. A control group was also created, but this time the pictures in this group were not accompanied by any attributes. There was a comparable agreement on which subjects were the most beautiful during the first round when none of the groups saw any personality descriptions. However, that changed when the negative/positive character qualities were revealed. People reported being more drawn to the subjects with positive descriptions and more turned off by the negative ones, as would be expected. Being kind will always pay off, but it may also get you a date.
SMELL YOUR BEST: According to a 2017 study published in Frontiers in Psychology, what you smell and hear may play a significant effect in who you pursue. Agata Groyecka-Bernard, PhD, a researcher at the University of Wrocaw in Poland, and her co-authors studied 30 years of research on human attraction to gain a better understanding of how attractiveness is perceived. They discovered that beauty is considerably more than skin-deep. It also includes other factors, such as how we react to a person’s natural fragrance and speaking voice. She discovered, for example, that while we are physically drawn to persons with similar genotypes, once we get close to that special someone, we prefer the odour of a mate with a different genetic background. The combination of the two preferences could help us choose genetically compatible partners. What is the main point here? Even if you don’t realise it, the tone of someone’s voice and even their scent may leave an effect on you when you first meet them.
occurs, the study’s author provided a persuasive explanation: Our brains most likely assign an “average attractiveness” to the group as a whole after assessing each member’s face Theindividually.authorinterprets this to suggest that, considered individually, persons might not be found to be as attractive as they are when they are in a group. This is due to the fact that each member’s face tends to be bent toward the “average attractiveness” of the entire group. In groups made up of both males and women as well as a combination of both, the study discovered similar results.
The students’ sexual orientation was left unspecified. Women valued their partner’s sense of humour as well as their own capacity to make their mate laugh, but males rated simply their own ability to make their partner laugh. Hence, for men, having a good sense of humour is considered one of Good Personality Skills around the world.
DEVELOP A POSITIVE OUTLOOK: The power of a positive attitude can’t be underestimated. “Optimism not only reduces stress, but it also enhances the production of the neurotransmitter dopamine,” says Dr. Medina, an affiliate professor of bioengineering at the University of Washington School of Medicine.
YOUR VOICE PITCH: According to one study, women with high-pitched voices appear younger and even thinner to men, which increases their attraction to them and is a trait of an Attractive Personality of a Woman. The same study found that men with a deeper voice appeared more macho and appealing to women, with women connecting baritone sounds with greater testosterone levels.
GOOD SENSE OF HUMOUR: According to numerous studies, women are more attracted to males who can make them laugh. Surprisingly, males are not more attracted to women who can make them laugh. In a study from 2006 that was published in the journal Evolution and Human Behavior, researchers polled undergraduate students about their ability to make their partner laugh as well as their own ability to do so.
Q.3- How do I know if I am attractive? Here are some things you should take note of when thinking about attractiveness signs: Your smile is praised by others. A genuine smile is a natural method to make your face glow and demonstrates self-confidence. You can feel thankful for those who have helped you get to where you are now by smiling.
2. Work on your voice pitch
RESPECT YOURSELF: Do you like your body and self? It’s alright if the response is “no” or a close variant. Take this as a reminder to not let the bad days win since self-love is a daily battle! Since we all know that confidence is appealing, a person with strong self-esteem is confident. We can draw certain assumptions about a person’s personality and lifestyle when they have genuine selfconfidence. You should keep in mind that developing your self-esteem is a continuous process. There must be a lot of optimism and patience. Your self-esteem can be cultivated through exercise, healthier diet, and increased productivity, but at its core, it’s about changing your perspective. It occurs when you recognise that you are a “work in progress” rather than a “finished product” . Habits can alter, and people develop at various rates. You have improved from where you were a year ago, and you can certainly make an effort to do so now.
The tips we shared here on How to Build an Attractive Personality (according to science) are effective but take time to develop. Be consistent and stay patient. In your journey of bettering yourself, you must start with accepting yourself first and from there on you can work on yourself. The more action you take towards a better version of yourself, the closer you get of your goal. Good Luck!

Q.1-FAQsHow to build a good/attractive personality?
When you’re positive, you tend to lift people up rather than pull them down. It’s not always easy to remain optimistic, especially if you’re not used to thinking in terms of “glass half-full” - but that’s good! Being positive takes time, and you may always take things slowly at first. You may use a quick trick right now by focusing through a “positive lens.” Has anything happened today that has made you feel down? It must have been challenging, but did you learn anything from it? What followed that helped you laugh or feel better? This process of thinking, known as positive reframing, can help you educate your brain to be more upbeat over the long and short terms. Finally, be kind to yourself. You are appealing because you are special and significant in your own right.
Dopamine, as you may know, makes you feel good. It improves your motivation and concentration. You become more productive and begin to see the bright side of things, which people find appealing socially.
1. Practice kindness. It is Appealing
FINAL WORDS
Q.2- What personality is the most appealing? The most attractive traits, for both sexes, have been identified as a cheerful outlook, balanced extroversion, and confidence. These three personality traits, according to psychologists, not only demonstrate a person’s ability to get along with people of any sex but also make them more appealing to that sex.
The following account summarizes the discourse and what makes ClixzYou a prized branding partner in today’s market.

The first breakthrough happened in 2016, as CLixzYou became the photography partner for the Under 25 summit. The team started managing and producing events and promoting brands as well. In the same year, they got to cover TEDx Delhi and be its broadcasting head. More than 30 people worked on the project with their team. In the years that followed, they began working in film productions, and in 2020 they released their first music video, Tareyan Wala Aasmaan,” in honour of Women’s Day just before COVID-19 swept the nation. That same year, they also released their second song, “PIA,” which was also performed by Urvashi Kiran Sharma. The increasing number of projects helped in establishing their first office in Ghaziabad.
So, what gives ClixzYou the edge to serve companies of all sizes and shapes? It’s the innate desire to see brands unleash their full potential and achieve their goals. According to Kartik, this is a fundamental value in everything they do, from capturing the most key moments to introducing novel ideas to the digital marketplace, shooting, and event management.
FROM INCEPTION-TO-DATE
CLIXZYOU LLP
DIGITALIZING YOUR IDEAS AND IMAGINATIONS
Back in the early years of film production, Kartik had seen how the increasing production costs in India hurdled a small brand’s growth. That is the very reason, ClixzYou has customized packages to suit all types of clients. Being in the industry for nearly a decade, they have also entered the IT space and successfully created a low-cost eCommerce website and application for a travel company and are making it available in other states.
A MODEL WORK CULTURE Technology, data, and people are the three foundational elements of digital marketing. It’s crucial to realize though people can only develop in the correct setting. ClixzYou upholds the idea and has a harmonious, goal-oriented culture. Placing people at the center of operations allows for more detailed issue solving, improved customer service, and overall
Our magazine recently had the opportunity for an interview with the company’s Founder and CEO, Mr. Kartik Rastogi.
Kartik has always had a natural passion for turning dreams into reality, which eventually inspired him to take up photography. He founded ClixzYou in 2015 with 2 other people, creating Amity University’s first photography club. Even as alumni, they organized 35 events in the same year, drawing positive attention. New talents wanted to join the coup, and the team began auditions in Delhi NCR. “Be it DU, IP, or Amity, every college kid participated in the auditions, and more than 250 people participated. “90 people were chosen for services we offer presently,” says Kartik. Kartik and his team involved them since gratitude letters, internship opportunities, and experience boost a student’s career.
A RELIABLE CHOICE FOR REIMAGINING BRANDING From eCommerce to technology providers, ClixzYou caters to all. It has even served corporate giants like DBMCI, eGurukul, and Pehchan. It provides services to distributors like Indofussion and retailers like Bsecart and Plaantghar as well.
In the following two years, Kartik and his team transformed ClixzYou into a “One-Stop-Shop” to handle all branding requirements, including photoshoots, website design, graphic design, digital marketing, and more. With more than 15 staff and 25 freelancers working on diverse projects as of 2022, ClixzYou is one of the eminent brand-building firms. “We were as the line producer for a recent Bollywood movie that was shot in Delhi NCR this year,”says Kartik. Standing today, it can drive transformation across many industries. The firm has created a reputation over the past six years for giving voice to small-scale firms with innovative and affordable services. The firm has expanded to many more cities, including Dehradun, Mumbai, Bangalore, and Kolkata.
The company keeps up with the market, which enables it to diversify into other industries. Each solution is supported by thorough research, market analysis, and a customized execution methodology. Every step of the process, is governed by precise rules, regulations, and standards to ensure only the best results. These ingrained principles have aided them in building a strong clientele throughout the subcontinent.
INTERNATIONAL
T he world we live in now is more dynamic than we did two years ago. Everything has drastically changed, from how people make a living to how businesses are operated. Although most limitations have been relaxed, it is extremely doubtful that life will ever return to “normal.” Businesses are actively updating their branding strategies to reflect the shifting consumer preferences. But without a strategic approach, this shift could grow tiresome. With every business aiming to establish long-term partnerships, the industry needs services that instantly engage with users. ClixzYou is a credible choice for targeted brand-building solutions.
The team’s efforts are commemorated with various rewards. Kartik asserts,“We have everything to keep them inspired, from promotions to parties, raises to tours, incentive payments to awards.”
Everybody on board is allowed to voice their creativity and innovative ideas. Flexibility in working from home and in an office environment also encourages cooperation and enthusiasm.
25 transformation. The significant emphasis on people and clients also reduces internal conflict and keeps everyone motivated to enhance the customer experience.
ClixzYou’s constant strive to excel in quality has earned it many prestigious accolades. The firm is counted among the “Top 10 photography studios of Delhi NCR” and is the only company to introduce BOLLCO (Bollywood Coworking) in India, where people can have 12 hours of free studio space for shoots complimentary with a co-working seat. This innovative model has attracted many investors, and they are now in the process of implementing it. Kartik hasn’t refrained from putting feathers on his cap. In 2018, he was awarded the “Under 20 Entrepreneurship Award” by Indore India Network. The firm’s growth exemplifies enthusiasm and dedication to goals with an emphasis on exploration. However, the firm still has many plans in the pipeline, so this is not the end. Within the next five years, ClixzYou intends to establish its one-stop branding franchisees across the nation, focusing on outlying areas. According to Kartik, although there are startups and viable products in Tier 2 and Tier 3 cities, not everyone is aware of the branding opportunities. He wants to help them succeed and prosper. A CONCLUDING NOTE Change is inevitable, and consistency—whether it be in people, environment, trends, or practices—fosters progress and promotes stability.

Where most digital marketing firms outsource photo sessions, website design, and other services, ClixzYou handles things with its resources.
The lion’s share of ClixzYou’s market exposure and durability comes from its adaptive business model. And this is well-exemplified in its progress during the COVID-19 outbreak. The period saw the rise of digital technologies, which propelled the e-Commerce space. As e-commerce businesses thrived, every other client wanted a welldesigned website for their brands. ClixzYou grabbed the opportunity and moved in as an affordable partner.

2. ZUZIA KOZERSKA’S LASER-ENGRAVED ROLLING PINS
1. COMPACT AIR FRYER
It’s simple to design lovely cookie patterns when rolling out the dough with Zuzia Kozerska’s laser-engraved rolling pins. Damask, dinosaurs, snowflakes, teacups, and countless other patterns are available for everyone to choose from. For the young ones to enjoy helping, they even make sizes for them.
3. PYREX ULTIMATE STORAGE CONTAINERS
The most popular kitchen item today is an air fryer, but have you actually seen one? They’re enormous! This miniature variation takes up a tiny fraction of the area and is quite cute. There is enough room in its 1.2 litres to cook a pound of crispy, healthy French fries, a dozen chicken wings, and much more. Quite helpful for Cooking Easy Meals.
There will always be leftovers when you cook for one. You’ll need to preserve your food whether you’ve batchcooked some quinoa, prepared a supper big enough for a family of five, or ordered too much pad Thai. Our preferred food storage containers are these Pyrex glass containers. We adore their durable glass construction, leak-proof design, and vented top for microwave use. Also useful for meal preparation.
Cuisine
Who doesn’t hate chopping onions? Many people never manage to get the pieces cut small enough and they always end up sobbing like they have just broken up with their partner. It takes far too long to prepare a supper for one person. Now that we only use this OXO chopper, we spend a lot less time in the kitchen (and many, many tears). It’s really worth it to have this capable sou chef on hand, even though you do have to chop the onion into tiny pieces to prevent it from getting trapped in the blades.

11. BEE’S WRAP
Considering how simple they are to make; smoothies are a go-to breakfast option for many. Everything is ready to go once you simply throw it all into a blender. You can use a personal blender because conventional blenders can be cumbersome and difficult to clean. You can drink directly from the blending cup with the Ninja Fit, which reduces clean-up time. It is also quick and robust. You may use it to mix sauces and dressings as well, although I should caution you that when hot items are combined, the steam makes it difficult to open.
Even though some people rarely use an entire ingredient when cooking for themselves, they often feel a bit bad about covering their sliced pepper or half of an avocado in plastic wrap for storage. It wastes so much! Bee’s Wrap fills that need. It’s a reusable cloth with a beeswax coating that enables it to adhere to other things and to itself. It’s wonderful for wrapping a few snacks to munch on-the-go or covering a bowl of dip you couldn’t finish.
While consuming a lot of leafy greens is very healthy, removing the stem’s nutrients can be a tiresome task. With its four holes on each side, you may insert kale, swiss chard, collard greens, or woody herbs and then use a simple pulling motion to separate the leaves from the stem. To further simplify rapid prep work, the curved side doubles as a herb chopper.
The Drop Scale initially appears to be just another digital scale in the market, but when used in connection with the appropriate app on a smartphone or tablet, it becomes an excellent tool for baking and cooking. All you have to do is open a recipe, add the ingredients, and the app will inform you when to stop so that each component is precisely weighed out as you go. It is the fool-proof solution to whipping up almost anything in your kitchen, but it is a real game-changer when baking, where measuring flour by weight is best practice.
10. BACON PRESS Bacon is unquestionably one of life’s greatest joys, but it can be a real shame when the ends get all coiled up and greasy. This bacon press presses the pieces in your skillet to prevent curling, giving you evenly flat, perfectly crisp bacon that is delicious on its own or in any of these bacon-dream lover’s dishes.
Although a little heat is enjoyable, preparing your favourite salsa with your fingers covered in scalding jalapeno fluids may be extremely uncomfortable. With the help of this practical jalapeno corer, you can easily scoop out the seeds and interior of your peppers without having to touch the hot interior yourself. Additionally, technique leaves the pepper intact (but cored), making homemade jalapeno poppers even more appealing.

The front of the burner has a light that indicates whether it is on. Because of the four nonslip feet, this hot plate is kept off your countertop just enough to allow heat to escape, protecting your counter.
12. WAFFLE MAKER a large waffle maker capable of producing up four waffles (or Churaffles, which are churros and waffles combined) simultaneously for weekend breakfast. Thanks to its non-stick surface, which won’t leave a greasy residue, clean-up is also simple.

This is something you can’t resist. You would love this Instant Pot. If you are a single person, your life will improve significantly by this item. There are other cooking options available, including rice cook, sauté, slow cook, and pressure cook. You can batch-cook grains and warming soups with it, and because all you have to do is toss the ingredients in and push a button, you can take a shower or finish up some work while your dinner cooks. Everyone should own one because it is so incredible.
14. HYPER CHILLER
13. PASTA STRAINER FROM KITCHEN GIZMO SNAP N STRAIN Pasta is among the simplest foods to prepare for one person, but filtering the water can be laborious. Your priceless noodles must be placed in a colander before being returned to the pot to be covered in a creamy sauce. I believe it to be a waste of time. People adore this strainer from Kitchen Gizmo because it attaches directly to the pot and cuts out the middleman. In comparison to a full-sized colander, it will also take up less room in your kitchen cabinets. According to reviews, it may be used to drain beef grease as well as heavy noodles.
Want some iced coffee right now? Using this frozen container, instantly chill beverages. Simply add hot coffee, stir, and ice-cold coffee will be produced. Feeling spontaneous? Take your preferred white wine bottle from the shelf; there’s no need to bother about choosing from the small choices in the cooler. In only a few minutes, chill the entire bottle at home! Your favourite alcoholic beverages can be swiftly flash-cooled while maintaining their subtle nuances. Your beverage is exposed to the equivalent of over 30 huge ice cubes with the Hyper Chiller’s straightforward, innovative multi-chamber design, but it is shielded by two layers of food-grade stainless steel, ensuring that there is no dilution throughout the cooling process.
16. ALWAYS PAN: You really don’t need a lot of cookware, whether you cook only for yourself or live alone. Although working with multiple burners is difficult and overrated, it is beneficial when you’re trying to cook tofu in one pan and sauté onions in the other. Here comes the Always Pan. It’s a photogenic terracotta pan that makes the claim that it can replace eight distinct kitchen tools, including a steamer, skillet, saucier, saucepan, non-stick pan, spatula, and spoon rest. This pan lived up to the hype after testing. It had a fantastic non-stick surface for sautéing and steaming dumplings admirably. You may proudly showcase it on your stovetop as opposed to stuffing it inside your cabinets because it is so wonderfully stunning. Asking for buying ‘Always Pan’ can be among the best

HASIBUDDIN’S TAKE ON THE LEADERSHIP
I maintain this mindset in all aspects of my life, and I don’t mind failing either. Even if many will think that I’ve failed, still I would have learned much which many cannot witness.
31 www.businessconnectindia.in | Vol. 5 | Issue 2 | September 2022 | INDIA
While in conversation with Mr. Hasibuddin Shaikh, he concluded with some advice for young entrepreneurs trying to make a mark in the industry. His first suggestion was for young entrepreneurs to be natural, original and innovative. One must have the mentality and fortitude to pave the road for others to follow or be inspired, rather than always following a trend, or conforming to it. Success or failure should not be judged based on accomplishments; they are merely states of mind. Whether one succeeds or fail, the fact that he at least tried it is still a reality. One should always take lessons from failure, and when he triumph, he must reflect more deeply. He should be mindful of actions at all times. When he succeeds, it will teach him what to do and when he fails it will teach him what not to do.
Talking about his entrepreneurial journey, the inspiring leader stated –
IDEAS FOR BUDDING ENTREPRENEURS VENTURING INTO THE INDUSTRY
Hasibuddin Shaikh apprised.
Throughout my professional journey, I have witnessed that often Engineering, Innovation and Technological advancements do not work hand in hand. The outcome is excellent when we attempt to combine them all in proper ratio. We were willing to start with the intention of being innovative and accurate to scientific principles; however, proving so was difficult. To demonstrate our dedication to innovation and the dependability on engineering and technology, we first developed a product named “VirExp.”
For me, a leader is someone who makes the most significant sacrifices, is least proud, is most concerned, constantly learns, takes responsibility for failure but delegate’s success to his team and its members, and most importantly, he should have the bravery to be the first and the last man standing.
Because it was created entirely from scratch rather than being built on top of pre-existing, commercially available software, like Gaming Engine, VirExp is an original product in our eyes. Additionally, we have unified all three of our company’s fundamental components into a software solution.
According to Hasibuddin, R&D is the most critical component of every sector and is not just confined to scientific fields. He is personally very interested in R&D and always conducts research in the areas he works in. This particular R&D has assisted them in launching their initial product, VirExp. Further, the visionary apprised “I would not be writing this post or starting a firm today if it weren’t for research and development. R&D has therefore aided us in getting off the ground, and I have no doubt that it will continue to do so and foster our growth.”
SIGNIFICANCE OF R&D
UNIQUE MARKETING STRATEGIES
For a business to prosper, the product or service must speak a thousand words, while the creator must only say a few. It is exceedingly difficult for a product or service to succeed and, by extension, for a business to grow if the creator continues to promote it but the same product or service cannot speak for itself when the consumer uses it. EngiInnoTech Solutions does not currently have any specific advertising or marketing plans other than the desire to develop products and services that will assist the team in advertising and growing. However, marketing and advertising are crucial in getting products in front of potential clients, so they are still necessary. Hasibuddin Shaikh apprised.

“What is associated with this tour and a potential visit to Taiwan is pure provocation,” Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said.
US House Speaker Nancy Pelosi opted to visit Taiwan with a straightforward mission: to express her country’s support for the self-ruled nation that shares a sea border with China. Pelosi stated that her visit comes at a time when “the world faces a decision between autocracy and democracy.”
Russia condemned the visit as a provocation, declaring full support for ally China.

China has expressed its displeasure over US House Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s solo trip to Taiwan. India is keeping an eye on the situation but has not commented as it does not have formal diplomatic connections with Taiwan but does have commerce and people-to-people links.
WILL CHINA-TAIWAN TENSIONS FOLLOWING PELOSI’S VISIT HAVE AN IMPACT ON INDIA?
INTRO
HOW DO OTHER COUNTRIES SEE IT?
BACKGROUND
INDIA’S STAND AND POSSIBLE IMPACT: India, like the US, adheres to the One China policy. Pelosi’s visit to Taiwan, on the other hand, goes against this stance. Following the separation of China and Taiwan in 1949, the One-China policy only recognises China and denies the existence of Taiwan. After Chinese Premier Wen Jiabao came to India in 2010, India, too, refused to reaffirm the One China Policy. India was irritated after China issued ‘stapled visas’ instead of regular visas to Jammu and Kashmir people travelling to China. Despite this, and the ongoing tensions along the LAC, India has chosen not to comment on the incident, fearing that any word will exacerbate tensions “according to sources. Meanwhile, India has maintained constant contact with Taiwan and has prioritised commerce. Following the Galwan skirmishes in 2020, Gourangalal Das (then joint secretary (Americas) in the Ministry of External Affairs) was appointed as India’s ambassador to Taiwan. Though India does not have formal diplomatic relations with Taiwan, New Delhi maintains a diplomatic office in Taipei called the India Taipei Association (ITA), which is directed by a senior diplomat, and Taiwan maintains the Taipei Economic and Cultural Centre (TECC) in New Delhi. Both were founded in 1995. Chung-Kwang Tien, Taiwan’s ambassador, was invited to Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s inauguration ceremony in 2014. Meanwhile, bilateral trade between India and Taiwan is expanding. “In 2002, India and Taiwan signed a bilateral investment agreement (BIA), which became effective in 2005. Bilateral trade between India and Taiwan increased by 185%, from $2 billion in 2006 to $7 billion in 2020. Taiwan received $698.6 million in FDI from India between 2000 and 2021 “according to sources In comparison, India’s commercial ties with China are enormous: From less than $20 billion in 2005 to $130 billion last year, relations have been strained for a variety of reasons, which has impacted India’s articulation of the OneChina Accordingpolicy.to media reports, TMSC (Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company) has a 54 percent market share and Taiwan alone is in charge of 63 percent of the global semiconductor business.

President Xi Jinping has stated that reunification with Taiwan must take place by 2021, yet he has stated that this will take place peacefully.
OF THE CONFLICT: Beijing ruled over Formosa, or Taiwan, until 1895, when it handed over power to Japan in the first Sino-Japanese war. After Japan lost the Second World War, China’s Nationalist forces, or Kuomintang, led by Chiang Kai Shek, recovered the island in 1945. However, in 1949, China’s Communist Party, led by Mao Zedong, won control of Beijing and the rest of China in the People’s Revolution, while Chiang Kai Shek’s soldiers fled to Taiwan. For decades, the UN, the US, and other countries continued to recognise the ROC(Republic of China) rather than the PRC(People’s Republic of China), although India and many other countries recognised the PRC and the One China principle. As US-China ties improved, the UN ousted the ROC and replaced it with the PRC in 1971. Even as the US affirmed the one-China policy in 1979, it passed the Taiwan Relations Act, which meant that the US would continue to help Taiwan defend itself, spending billions of dollars each year and selling weapons to Taipei. Taiwan began democratisation in 1987 and held a presidential election in 1996, possibly positioning it as a counterweight to the Chinese system and increasing the distance between Taipei and Beijing. In 1954, 1958, and 1996, China and Taiwanese forces engaged in military conflict, dubbed the First, Second, and Third Taiwan Strait Crisis. Indeed, after 25 years of relative calm, it is apparent that US-China tensions over Taiwan are rising, as is the likelihood of Chinese action to either contain or take control of Taiwan, and US anxieties have intensified since Russia’s invasion of Ukraine.

HIGH ON CHURROS
A RISING STAR IN INDIA FOR THE SAID APPETIZING SPANISH CULINARY
The best dishes are made from the simplest ingredients. Even though people enjoy complex foods that leave an ephemeral essence, there are culinary delights that are simple to prepare but are still exquisite. Churros are a great example; they are a delectable dish that is popular in Spain and most of Latin America and has a variety of delicious applications, regardless of the industry. Also, it combines the most mundane ingredients in culinary history—flour and water—and then submerges them in hot oil. The result is a delicious golden, crispy, chewy thing. Such a culinary marvel cannot be a secret within a nation. Though Spain will always produce the best churros, developing countries like India don’t lag behind. In fact, our bustling capital boasts numerous sought-after venues for this tantalizing treat. High on Churros (HOC) is one of them. Founded under the banner of Gurjyot Impex Pvt. Ltd., the brand is creating a buzz for delicious churros with a pan-India vision.

Indranil Roy | Business Connect 20 MOST PROMISING ST RTUPSTOWATCH-2022
Being a young brand, they value the need for innovations to grow, which is why everyone stays on their toes to curate new ideas for the brand’s growth. Nonetheless, they also celebrate birthdays, watch cricket matches, and work hard together.
DRAWN ON DIGITAL STARTUP STRUCTURE
The said notion makes it obvious that the brand wants to become India’s premier international QSR chain based on global pop culture. It is on a mission to serve every Indian churro lover across major metros like Delhi, Mumbai, Bangalore, Chennai, Kolkata, Chandigarh, etc., in the next 2 to 3 years. Post to that, HOC plans to set foot in Dubai and North America.
Today’s hottest startups are those that have a strong emphasis on digitization, making HOC an ideal one. Customers can order online or for pickup through the brand’s website. Hardik claims that Indian food startups, whether they are operating a little food cart or a restaurant, are creating a buzz that is drawing a lot of funding and assistance from abroad. “The government also contributes by creating and preserving a business-friendly ecosystem that draws in outside capital to finance and nurture startups,” he adds. For them, this elevated startup culture has uncovered the potential to expand digitally while being analytical. R&D happens to be one of its critical pillars of growth. It helps them experiment on their offerings for innovating new products and strategizing growth. It also contributes to upholding best-in-the-market quality. Ultimately, these attributes lead to long-term efficiency and profitability. With a qualified product, it becomes easier to market the brand through the customer’s word-of-mouth. HOC runs under the tenet that it is simpler to retain a current customer than to find a new one. By ensuring uncompromised quality, the brand provides the best culinary experience that showers them with return customers along with their friends and family. With that being said, HOC uses social media platforms to promote and expand its presence. Each platform has a different strategy and demographic target. Many social media influencers have also played a vital role in sharing their experiences with customers, which helps in getting loyal customers.
Our magazine recently got in touch with the brains behind this endeavor, Harmail Singh Khattar and Hardik Agarwal, for an interview. As the conversation progressed, they discussed their goals for making HOC the homegrown brand for Churros variations that will take you to their origins. The elegant read summarizes the discourse.
THE SOULS OF THE BRAND
HOC is envisioned to get people “high” on churros. Harmail says that dessert can uplift moods like nothing else, and HOC’s churros are bound to make people happy and induce high spirits. The brand offers more than 15 authentic variations of churros tossed with cinnamon sugar and served with a dip of your choice. Classic Churros, Exclusive Churros, Loaded Churros, Churros Fries, and Churros Pops are a few of their most popular categories. It’s really alluring to have such a tasty variety available with a range of the most luscious chocolate dips, caramel, and other toppings. This spiral-shaped, deep-fried snack made of baked dough and coated with aromatic cinnamon sugar might not fit into a nutritionist’s suggested diet plan for a long, healthy life. However, nothing quite compares to these all-golden-brown sticks that are both a classic delight and an instant reward for a true feeling of being in the air.
HOC was founded by two young entrepreneurs who aspired to democratize a highly coveted culinary delicacy in India, one of the few sub-continents described as a melting pot of cultures and races. Even though they have earned an overwhelmingly positive response, the journey hasn’t been a piece of cake. According to Hardik, becoming a leader hasn’t been simple since it entails learning various new skills outside of one’s comfort zone. “Even with our limited culinary knowledge, nonetheless, we created and established a restaurant network,” he claims. “We are now in talks with many entities to open more stores quickly.”
“Things like gender, colour, and class do not predict your growth at High on Churros.” It’s like a well-functioning human body, where the brain is the leader, and everything trickles down from there. HOC has a dedicated team for every department. Harmail and Hardik guide the team every step of the way. This ensures transparency and keeps everyone engaged and loyal towards their responsibilities.
A PROMISSING BRAND
BUILT TO SUSTAIN & THRIVE
HOC opened its first store in Delhi’s favorite and Asia’s most expensive market, Khan Market, in March 2022. After an overwhelming response, it is opening its second store in Delhi’s most coveted mall—DLF Promenade—in September 2022. Shortly afterwards, they plan to open 7 to 9 stores in Delhi NCR at prominent locations. Even though such sought-after goals make them feel triumphant, the true triumphs are shown in the responses of people after they bite into a churro. Also, the fact that they have had return customers every week is a critical feather in their cap. In the years to come, HOC strives to become a benchmark for culinary delights and a well-known company that employs thousands of Indians. Even though this may seem ambitious, their trajectory shows potential, and it will be exciting to see how they meet these objectives.
AN INSPIRATIONAL MEMENTO
Harmail Singh Khattar and Hardik Agarwal
“If you aspire to be an entrepreneur, be fearless and go for it. Don’t listen to the naysayers, and do what you wholeheartedly believe. At the same time, be self-aware. Don’t let setbacks or failures demotivate you.
37 www.businessconnectindia.in | Vol. 5 | Issue 2 | September 2022 | INDIA
“Remember that failures and mistakes are steppingstones to learn and reach new heights.”
Good people add up to healthy growth for a brand, just as pleasant food provides a riveting experience. At HOC, people are the centre of all it does, which makes it their extended family. Everyone works with fun and enthusiasm while taking responsibility as family members do. “Fairness and equality are at the core of our brand,” asserts Harmail.

ACCELERATING DEEP DECARBONIZATION OF ENERGY VIBGYOR ENERGY:
VIRAJ GADHOKE Managing Director
currently working to meet the government’s target of 500 GW by 2030. The Govt. and startup ecosystem is collaborating to pursue these goals. However, the mission to equalize this readily accessible “green power” and drive a national impact calls for a company with the technological know-how and a track record of notable projects. Enter Vibgyor Energy, a renowned one-stop store for solar energy solutions in India.
Climate change is the most pressing topic of our time. Its effects are global in scope and unparalleled in scale, ranging from changing weather patterns that jeopardize food production to rising sea levels that increase the risk of catastrophic flooding. Human activity has a prime influence on climate change. After 150 years of industrialization, deforestation, large-scale agriculture (factory farming), travel, and transportation, the amount of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere has reached unprecedented heights. According to an IPCC report, these shifts are unprecedented in human history. India is one of the hotspots of climate change. The increasing heat stress, reductions in freshwater supply, soil drying, intensive tropical cyclones, and rising sea levels clearly represent the looming threat. The scenario makes decarbonization more necessary than ever.
Emphasizing renewable power sources like solar can bring about a transformation. According to a report from the Ministry of Power, India generated 150.54 GW of renewable energy in 2021, and it is
• ASSET MANAGEMENT: Besides providing a range of solar models, Vibgyor also monitors, manages, and controls the solar plant from the client’s site using robust, cutting-edge operation & maintenance practices for long-term ROI. This includes complete operations management, maintenance management, and even remote monitoring. Vibgyor is not only technically adept but also proactive, ensuring clients are enjoying smooth energy consumption.
POISED FOR GREAT STRIDES
• SOLAR PARK: Vibgyor offers discounted power from its solar park to industrial and commercial clients. The company will make sure the client receives the agreed-upon power and will produce monthly invoices for customers. The client must invest a minimum of 7.8% under this arrangement to enjoy captive plant benefits and sign a long-term power purchase agreement to access this facility. Since an open-access solar park is unrestricted by energy supply shortages, this model also fills the energy gap.
• EPC: Vibgyor offers best-in-class, unique CAPEX solar plant solutions that make the most of available space, incident sun rays, and long-term generation viability on the property. The client must invest in the project to reap its rewards over its lifespan. They can expect an annual ROI of 40% and, if qualified, can take advantage of accelerated depreciation and subsidies. Vibgyor will oversee the solar power plant’s whole O&M. Clients can also export any excess power produced through the net-metering process if permitted by state law. Vibgyor also provides a CAPEX with a financing option where customers only contribute 30 to 50% of the funding needed to commission the project.
DRIVING TOP-NOTCH QUALITY
• OPEX/RESCO: In a nutshell, this model is the complete antithesis of the CAPEX model. In place of the client, Vibgyor invests, installs a solar power system on the client’s property, and enters into a “Pay & Use” contract with the client. This allows clients to use solar energy, making no investments while also receiving considerable savings off the current cost. They can receive from 10% to 15% of the cost of power on the state grid, depending on the plant capacity and the consumer’s credit score. The client can be granted free use of the solar plant after the minimum contract time is finished.
The company’s quality and focus on delivering what’s promised reflect its attention to setting a benchmark. This enabled it to commission many notable projects. Two of its esteemed projects include the 4000KW rooftop project for Moon Beverages Ltd. and the 2260KW project for Varun Beverages Ltd. Vibgyor has also undertaken projects in Punjab, Rajasthan, Uttar Pradesh, J&K, Uttarakhand, Rajasthan, Chandigarh, and New Delhi. With successful projects, Vibgyor is taking a step forward to mitigate rising electricity expenditure through advanced, dependable, cost-effective, turnkey solar energy solutions.

Vibgyor has been thriving for the past seven years and has outweighed many storms and uncertainties. The business remained steadfast and on its toes throughout the height of COVID-19. Even today, it goes to every extent to excel in customer satisfaction. They do site visits, and the projects reflect the expertise they bring to the table. Given its quality, the Ministry of New and Renewable Energy has empaneled it under the “Grid Connected Rooftop Solar Power Plants Program.” Vibgyor is a certified installer of highefficiency REC modules. Its continuous strive for excellence has earned it the “Silver Award for Rooftop Project Developer 2018” at the India Rooftop Solar Congress 2018. These accomplishments undoubtedly show Vibgyor’s commitment to leading its field. But it hasn’t yet succeeded in its mission to lessen reliance on the grid by implementing sophisticated and turnkey solar energy solutions. The world is shifting toward sustainable solutions and broadscale decarbonization, and it will be interesting to witness how Vibgyor positions India at the forefront of this wave.
Although solar energy is yet to become the household energy source in India, it is still becoming the talk of the town. With an effective privatepublic partnership, the country is on the cusp of becoming the fastest complete adopter of solar energy. Even though this is laudable, the sector has become increasingly competitive. And walking the talk often becomes tedious for companies. But not for Vibgyor. The company has earned a reputation for delivering products of the highest caliber. Every device comes with a 20–25-year warranty, a simple installation procedure, and post-sales support. Moreover, everything they do is inhouse. While it can be over the odds, the company doesn’t compromise on quality. The team also keeps the company attuned to market trends, including practices and innovations. The unfettered commitment to quality has earned it recognition from national and international bodies like USICEF and CREST.
ISHAAN GADHOKE Executive Director
The death of India’s most well-known stock investor, Rakesh Jhunjhunwala, also known as the country’s Warren Buffett, on Sunday (14 August) sparked a flood of condolences for the self-made millionaire whose fortunes grew alongside the nation’s economy. According to hospital officials, he had been ill for a few days before passing away on Sunday at Mumbai’s Breach Candy Hospital. His sudden cardiac arrest, or heart attack as it is more often known, was the direct cause of death. Because Jhunjhunwala had ischemic heart disease, even though cardiac arrest is a heart stoppage, it was more of a heart attack. In everyday language, this means that the blood flow to the heart muscle is insufficient and may be caused by blockages in the heart muscle, with heart attacks being one symptom of that. His diabetes and chronic kidney disease, two additional illnesses he had, only made things worse. Some of his acquaintances assert that he was on dialysis and that both of his kidneys had failed. Jhunjhunwala had to routinely travel to the Mumbai hospital, Breach Candy, where he was being treated. His health problems worsened to the point where he had to stay in the hospital for about four months in the preceding six months as a result of hospitalizations. He was obese, which only made matters harder, and he didn’t give up drinking or smoking. However, the end of a colourful life surprised a lot of people, and sincere tributes are still coming in.
Financial Background
50www.businessconnectindia.in | Vol. 5 | Issue 2 | September 2022 | INDIA THIS WAS THE REASON FOR RAKESH JHUNJHUNWALA’S UNTIMELY DEMISE
The news of his death came a week after the debut of his low-cost airline, Akasa Air. He was looking weak while advertising the carrier. His wife, whom he used to call as his sole client, and his three children are left behind. He also left behind stakes in about thirty Indian companies as well as a string of catchphrases like “the trend is your buddy” and “the only rule I have is there are no rules.”
The business tycoon, whose estimated net worth was $5.8 billion, was honoured under the direction of Prime Minister Narendra Modi. “Rakesh Jhunjhunwala had unbreakable strength. He leaves behind an immeasurable contribution to the financial world and was full of life, wit, and insight “Modi tweeted his condolences to the Jhunjhunwala family as well. His most recent endeavour involved helping to start the budget airline Akasa Air, which made its inaugural flight last week. Local media stated that Jhunjhunwala was spotted at the launch in a wheelchair. The airline expressed its “great sorrow” at hearing of his passing. According to a statement from Akasa, “We at Akasa cannot thank Mr. Jhunjhunwala enough for being an early believer in us and putting his confidence and faith in us to develop a world-class airline.” Jhunjhunwala was famous for taking chances in the market and with his investments, earning him the nickname “Big Bull” of the nation’s Bombay Stock Exchange.
Jhunjhunwala, an income tax officer’s son, said that he had developed a fascination with stocks as a young boy as a result of seeing his father manage his market assets. Jhunjhunwala started out in the stock market in 1985, when he was 25 years old, using $100 that he reportedly borrowed from a relative.
“I am not a clone of anyone. My name is Rakesh Jhunjhunwala “He’d stated. “Trading and investing are all I’ve ever known. There is nothing else I want to do in life. The day I die, I’ll call it quits.”
He predicted that the third-largest economy in Asia, India, was “entering a golden period”, while talking to CNBC-TV18, he hoped “my fellow Indians are as optimistic as I am.” He expressed his dislike for the title “India’s Warren Buffett” in an interview with Reuters ten years ago, noting that the CEO of Berkshire Hathaway was “far, far ahead” of him.
Later, he founded Rare Enterprises, a company whose name was derived from the first two letters of both his own name and those of his wife, Rekha. He was known for taking calculated risks with his investments, many of which were extraordinarily profitable. According to a Forbes story from 2021, Jhunjhunwala “earned his famed Midas touch by picking winning equities,” but he has also lately begun to realise the returns on his private equity investments.
