“Culture Is Like Discipline, You Have To Learn & Practice Daily to Create & Uphold one” What does culture talk about a company? The answer is, A LOT! A company may have state-of-the-art infrastructure, cutting-edge research or top-of-theline manpower, but without ethos and values, none would function properly. Companies guided purpose, vision, goals, and expectations are more successful because they believe in infusing resources with values for better employee performance, productivity and engagement. Such businesses don’t brag about their accomplishments. Instead, they tell stories that inspire not only the business community but also the wider community. And not to mention, they believe in working for the greater good of society. Even in the hour of darkness, these companies don’t back out instead, they drive hope not just for their people, but for others as well. As an eminent part of the business community, our magazine acknowledges the importance of a synchronized culture. Being in the publishing media, we have to do a pretty hefty job and require a lot of energy to stay proactive. And since we believe in “Inspiring Business Community”, this edition ‘The Best Company culture examples that deserve your Attention!’ will feature a few select companies renowned for their underlying culture. The Cover Page will feature the engaging story of AP Securitas, a dynamic security solutions provider from New Delhi. Mr Anil Puri, MD and Chairman started the company in a small way, but then, grew in leaps and bounds. And now AP Securitas is a vibrant firm with a vigorous presence across business segments. What made us approach AP Securitas was its equivalent attention towards customer and employee satisfaction. Qualified solutions and upskilling employees to new levels are priorities. Even more, it believes in encouraging startup initiatives and supports philanthropic activities too, which makes them an esteemed member of the business community. Whether you’re an employee, an entrepreneur or a business leader this story, will surely, impart a positive impact. So, now that you have an idea of how a culture communicates a company to people, do you find the answers to our question? Moreover, do you believe the same? Because we aim to inspire the community through our readers. Then they will do the same for others, creating a long and sustainable link. And eventually, this will sustain our core value.

VAMSI KRISHNA, CEO, Co-Founder of Vedantu In June 2020, the company invested 2$ million in an EdTech organization and has been developed a doubt-solving app for Jee mains and advance and NEET aspirants and other users too. During this pandemic, Vedantu has been offering Free LIVE Interactive classes as well as premium contests for all grade and JEE/NEET aspirants, so that students’ education isn’t interrupted due to Covid-19.
VEDA + TANTU = VEDANTU, VEDA means “Knowledge” and TANTU means “Network” A knowledge network where any student can access teachers personally, anytime anywhere. It’s all being in 2006 when Vasmi Krishan and his three IITian friends founded the first start-up called “Lakshya”. The institute aimed at training students for various types of tests. Eventually, they noticed that the Indian educational sector needs so many dedicated and skilled teachers. So, they started working on developing such an online platform through Lakshya, it was acquired by MTEducare.
Rectally, Vedantu proclaimed $100 million in series d led by Coatue Management (US-Based). This round funding, Vedantu is valued at $60Omn that makes it 2nd most valued E-learning platform.
In 2014, Vedantu was introduced officially as an online tutoring platform. Nowadays, this EdTech start-up is improving the education structure through its to make an exceptional online education platform.
FOUNDERS
Vedantu is one of the best online tutoring platforms that has the goal to provide LIVE coaching to students. As per Vedantu, Vedanta’s USP is its quality of teachers. Over 500 teachers associated with this company, who have taught around 1 million hours to 40,000 students all across the country. This EdTech caters to 1st grade to 12th grade, including school board and Joint entrance examinations preparation. Now kids can learn code as well. The platform offers individual as well as group calls. It also uses two-way audio, video as well as whiteboarding tools, so that Students and teacher both can view, listen, write, and interact in real-time.
Pulkit Jain is the Co-founder of Vedantu and Lakshya, who graduated from IIT Roorkee. He was also an employee of EvalueServe till 2006. The man has become an inspiration for many entrepreneurs.
Vamsi Krishan is the CEO of Vedantu who did graduation from IIT Bombay. Before Vedantu, he was a co-founder of Lakshya. He also worked with L&T as a management trainee for a year.
Anand Parks is yet another Co-founder of this E-learning platform who is also an ex-student of IIT Roorkee. Before Vedantu, he was working as a manager at Abhishek industries. He is also known as the former Co-founder of Lakshya. Saurabh Saxena, who did bachelorette in chemical engineering from IIT Roorkee.

COMPANY’S GROWTH This pandemic has definitely led to huge growth for the Vedantu. Over the past 6 months, the number of subscribers have expanded exponentially.
RECENT FUNDING HISTORY Vedantu has raised approximately $200mn in a total funding round that is valuing the company at $600. In Feb 2020, amid its series C1 round, the company got funding $12.5mn from Chinese Venture capital firm Legend Capital, with participation from Omidyar’s Ohana Holdings LLC.
Rectally, each month around 25 million students have been using Vedantu’s services. Vedantu has reported a 220% growth in users to 2 million unique pupils who have taken LIVE classes over the past three months.
In April 2020, the company raised $6.8mn funding led by a Korean-based firm KB Global Platform.
In 2019, Vedantu introduced us WAVE platform that has developed by AI (Artificial intelligence) to make LIVE classes more enticing and engaging. Most of the online education platform face low completion rate. This issue has been solved by Vedantu.
In the end, I would say that online learning is becoming a tradition these days that shows that the EdTech sector will have endless potential toward boost and expansion.

Culture
Amid The Mainstream Culture Is Folk Heritage Forgotten It is dampening to notice that it has become more of adversity to maintain our native heritage and forgotten folk culture with the rise of rapidly dispensable mainstream society. The production of upcoming, super-pleasant but sometimes bombastic music has missed a good number of our old stories. For instance, in West Bengal and Bangladesh, Bauls, a network of spiritualist musicians, is known for their profound music called the BaulGaan.
North-western Punjab camel drivers and Punjabi and Pushtu locals made a style out of Tappa that is steadily being terminated due to the absence of good educators just as dedicated understudies; in the eighteenth century, Thumri grew as a conventional style. Today, masters rarely teach thumri because a particular temperament and voice are necessary. Previously, the vocalist will end up with a thumri after a Khayal introduction, but bhajans have supplanted this.
Bauls are not an element of any arranged faith or status. Their music is a face of love and dedication, their faith is a feature of the equilibrium between nature and human energy. The pleasantness of the language and the ameliorating tone of the Iktara has and had won the hearts of many including Kobiguru Rabindranath Tagore. Their music has affected the lifestyle of many people.
Today, with its organized unions and a plurality of alliances, the film industry will approach the country’s finance minister to lower the GST prices on film tickets. There is no individually capable group of performers of society or, besides, musicians of the old style, who can continue to the legislature for arrangements, even if they discover a high circle mouthpiece with clout.
In the working field of Rajasthan, Pankhida is a tune mummed by ranchers, persevering distinctly in the faroff cities. So has Panihari, a tune sung by the ladies of Rajasthan describing their day by day duties has achieved a greater degree of remembrance. While social music such as Chhattisgarh’s Pandavani, depicting the well-known Hindu epic Mahabharata, and Baul made it to urban communities, the rest remained in some cities.
The principal stakeholders themselves, representatives of folk musicians, should be interested in every long and informative debate about how to do this. Instead of setting up extended committees that only involve bureaucrats, classical musicians, and cultural czars and czarinas, we need their direction, however competent they may be. Packaging folk songs as mere fillers or raunchy item numbers have steadily crawled under the skin of the wolf of immoral musical activities through markets, something that needs to be closely re-examined and changed.
Apart from being an imperative feature of the provincial and sometimes short-sighted, fair, and easy life, our people’s melodies are a sparkling raconteur of our significant and varied society. On each occasion, there used to be a “mindset song” from weddings to day by day errands. Passing on India’s melodic customs goes from ghazals to thumris. VrindGaan, on Independence Day and Republic Day, the traditional exciting tunes that the ladies of the house used to sing at each wedding event, ensemble bunches that used to sing devoted melodies, have now gone begging on Doordarshan, with most musicians having either gone solo or grasped elective callings. Though some of the superb coordination and chest-pounding showy behaviour is taken into account by “Mile Sur MeraTumhara,” a certain affection and deference are not showered against “Kesariyo Des.”

SHIVENDRA DWIVEDI Founder & Managing Director

After a lull of almost a decade for software opportunities in the Indian retail industry, there is sudden surge of favourable events. Traditional Retailers are looking for solutions that can bring them on par with online retail and giants. This pressure of going digital and being relevant to consumers has sprung up opportunities for technology players.
MAXTRA TECHNOLOGIES PRIVATE LIMITED
Leveraging this opportunity, Maxtra Technologies, incepted in the year 2008, defines designs and delivers technologyenabled business solutions for global entrepreneurs and businesses. It helps them build products that can solve their everyday problems through creative and conscientious use of technology. Understanding the necessity of a business to build new products, Maxtra, promises to provide best in class services and the right things for a project, user, and team as well.
A PASSION-DRIVEN LEADER
Shivendra Dwivedi, the young, dynamic and energetic entrepreneur, is the Founder and Managing Director. From being the young graduate of Rajiv Gandhi Proudyogiki Vishwavidyalaya to making Maxtra Technologies amongst the most coveted software Development Company globally, Shiv (popular name) decided to be unconventional at each step. He has attained unprecedented milestones in his business venture using the technology as his tool. His vision is to see Maxtra technologies as a globally respected corporation.

Describing the current set of challenges in the retail industry, Shiv states an ideal business environment as one where principal companies and retailers

www.businessconnectindia.in | Vol. 4 | Special Edition August 2021 INDIA
don’t just grow individually, but together. With the growing demand for better goods, it is important for both entities to overcome challenges and forge a strong business partnership. The challenges right now are to keep running a profitable business with an eye on future innovations, timely changes to keep up with fluctuating business trends and taking on digital transformation as a journey acquiring the necessary skills and knowledge and to offer the clients with innovative solutions. Opportunities are never far behind the challenges. Retailers now need to capitalize on technology to provide customers with easy access to their needs. With more customer empowerment, retailers will only survive if their business creates shared value that benefits shareholders and society. Social and environmental sustainability will strengthen the communities in which retailers operate, that in turn will appeal to customers. Maxtra will aim to re-design retail and other businesses so that all stakeholders (as many as possible) benefit: customers, associates/employees, shareholders, the communities it serves and those in the supply chain.
ENSURING AGILITY
Talking about the technological advancements that are redefining industry standards, Shiv says, “Regardless of your personal opinion—Luddite or technophile—the rapid advance of technology isn’t going to slow any time sooner. More and more small ventures that fail to adapt are going to find themselves left behind while the savvy ones who learn to keep up with this aspect will reap the rewards.” One must understand how technology affects their business (for better or worse) and how to apply advancements in order to play them to an advantage.
Maxtra offers its clients such products and services that incorporate the latest technology. It aims to capture the incredible opportunity for companies to leverage influencers, who have built a loyal following and credibility within an industry, to market to enterprise decision makers. It uses analytics to gather industry-specific information that helps in identifying gaps in an organization’s performance and can be leveraged to achieve a competitive advantage. It is aiming to use Blockchain which represents a decentralized, encrypted secure system of record, with applications in government, HR and countless other industries. It is also developing mobile solutions to cater to every aspect of client’s business which can be handled from remote locations, if a smart device or tablet is loaded with the correct software. Shiv says, “These technologies have incredible implications, and we’re just beginning to see their capabilities. More importantly, we’re just beginning to imagine real-world applications for their use.”
CREATING AN INNOVATIVE WORK CULTURE
Maxtra has full faith in its workforce. Shiv insists, “If a human mind can develop the technology, it surely has the capability to innovate it as well to be used in varied business models; and that’s exactly what our people are capable of!” Maxtra takes care of five points when it comes to its employees • Clearly defining vision as a roadmap for the employees • Giving employees what they want and need compassing tools, training, and support from supervisors. • Communicate well and often during training sessions, memos, newsletters, FAQs, and regular meetings. • Get everyone engaged in planning and decision-making • Coach employees for success, and practice random acts of kindness.

Feedback is another great motivational tool which should be given right away, to encourage more of the same performance when positive and to self-correct when negative.
EXPANDING THE NETWORKS
Maxtra Technology’s future growth plans include expanding its network of customers and to increase its products and services verticals for them. In order to expand its business, it intends to make strategic alliances with other companies that are strategically fit with its business. It strongly believes that there are still significant opportunities to further expand into both the local and international market. To leverage those opportunities it intends to strengthen its sales and marketing network by enlisting experienced marketing and sales personnel and participating in more transnational trade fairs.
Shiv concludes,
“For us, technology is not about services
or products we build. Those are not the end goals. Technology is a democratizing force, empowering people and businesses through information and analytics. Looking for the future, we will move from mobile first to AI first world.
“
SHIVENDRA DWIVEDI Founder & Managing Director
A TOKEN OF ADVICE TO THE ENTREPRENEURS
For entrepreneurs, Shiv says that it is import-
ant to know one’s passion in order to ensure that the work is done and finances are arranged. It is equally important to innovate by putting one’s passion to work in creating an organization that stands out of the crowd. One should also look for ways to positively impact the team and align their goals with company culture. Entrepreneurs should also remember that “You can do anything, but you can’t do everything. Taking it to step by step allows you to grow within your means. Use your money wisely and know when to say no.”

V- Financial Services(VFS)
A one-stop platform for cost efficient and unbiased financial services guidance VANDANA UPADHYAY | Founder & CEO
Kajal Dobhal Business Connect
Financial service sector is crucial for any economy, ensuring earnings and equity market capitalisation. A variety of companies are dominating this segment with their exemplary services offered to the customers or businesses for the financial goods. But, the delicacy of this sector is the need of a reliable financial advisor who can manage clients’ assets and offer them with enlightening advises for better outcomes. In this direction, Business Connect Magazine has featured some outstanding financial service providers in its brand-new edition to recognise the contribution of a few credible companies. Here, we are featuring the success story of V-Financial Services that is being led to greater heights, under the stewardship of its CEO– Vandana Upadhyay.
COMPANY OVERVIEW A wealth advisory firm, V-Financial Services, has been rendering innovative and unequalled financial solutions to corporates as well as individuals. As a group of qualified financial professionals with an enriched experience of 18+ years in the BFSI sector, VFS has emerged as a female-led company with PAN India and cosmopolitan presence. With an exclusive vision to bridge the gap between investor’s behaviour and investing, they ensure the adoption of an investment process that is robust against behavioural decision-making errors. “The idea behind forming this group was to bridge the gap between client’s wealth planning, its execution and financial goal achievement,” states Vandana. Most of the financial intermediaries are mainly converged on pushing particular products to customer and post-product sales, the customer is left on his own to commence the financial journey alone. This is where V-Financial pitches in to make a difference. With the novice concept to deal in Wealth Advisory by providing appropriate support to the clients, VFS started its journey to emphasize consolidating and reviewing all investment in a single-window Platform. Keeping it as the primary focus, the company has designed www.businessconnectindia.in | Vol. 4 | Special Edition August 2021 INDIA
28
“Our USP is Right Advise, Trust and Relationship followed by robust service support to the customers, “
an investment plan that could meet the client’s requirements effortlessly. Team VFS is always dedicated to ensuring the trust of the customers in their services. Their offered solutions are not just limited to provide a solution to the client but also, to guide their path to any issue related to financials aspects.
IDEA BEHIND INCEPTION
When asked about the motivation that led to the inception of the venture, Vandana states that VFS was conceptualized to provide goal-oriented Financial planning and unique solutions to HNI & UHNI segment, to act in the best interest of the clients. Through its vast experience, VFS learnt that the concept of a “consolidated financial plan across all asset class” is less adopted by various financial intermediaries due to lack of expertise in all asset class and technology available for the same. Thereby, VFS considered this gap as an opportunity to be substantive to the industry. In this direction, Vandana asserts, “The client would be better motivated to opt for your service as a planner if you take care of his long- term financial goals rather than focusing on short-sighted benefits.”
STANDING APART FROM THE REST
VFS prioritizes clients’ requirements at any cost. It ensures service beyond product domain such as Equity, MF, Insurance, Lending, Health, PMS, AIF, etc., for hassle-free life by advising the customers on various parameters –Taxation, Estate Planning , Will deed etc. of their financial journey and work closely with customers to help them reach their aspired financial goals. Addressing several pain points for the customers in financial space, they are helping the customers to set their measurable financials and investments periodically while re-evaluating financial plans to maintain continuity. From managing their existing portfolio to ensure a comprehensive 360° reports and overall net worth of the customers across all asset class, their ceaseless product & service support across all asset class under a single window gives them a leading edge. “Our absolutely dedicated digital and hassle-free services by our adept female brigades take care of all service related issues,” continues the CEO. Team VFS also considers the role of R&D quite instrumental in the growth of the company. To them, R&D is a dynamic segment that allows them to be abreast of new product variation and any change in the regulatory framework for right guidance to the clientele.
RELIANCE IN THE TECH-TOOLS
Team VFS reckons that asset allocation is crucial to portfolio return and without the help of technology, its management is
unimaginable. Since from its inception, the company has leaned over technology for seamless and uninterrupted services to the customers that allowed them to help their clients amidst the glooms and dooms of the nationwide lockdown too. The firm is leveraging technology in every aspect of the work. Be it E-on boarding of new customers or new application processing, tech-tools help them perform every business operation effectively. A few of their in -house developed software help them to manage client’s reports. Moreover, they lean on the utilization of the software such as BSE-Star MF, 3 tense and other digital platforms for their transaction, reports and services.
CULTURE THAT THRIVES ‘CUSTOMER-FIRST’ MOTTO
At V-Financial Services, the employees are polite and humble to help the clients in best possible manner. The company thrives a culture of fun where the team enhances its productivity by being in a pleasant environment where light instrumentals are played during working hours. The management ensures more collaborative approach where each associated individual is treated as a part of Business/Family rather than employees. Here, an open culture is nurtured where timely feedback is shared and employee engagement is promoted in every possible manner. “Our team always thrives on improving area of development to have seamless customer experience. The performance of the team is evaluated annually on 4 scale rating and they are rewarded with Long-Term Service Award along with Respect and Dignity,” cites Vandana. Even amidst the prevailing crisis of the COVID-19 pandemic, VFS stood beside its employees and no deductions on the pay checks were made by the management. Contrary to the scenario, they offered the employees with appropriate increment too. In this respect, they feel their digitalized workflow played a significant role to serve its clients even amidst the unprecedented times.
GLIMPSES OF THE MILESTONES AND ACHIEVEMENTS
Recently, they have started operating in HNI & UHNI segment in Mumbai. Soon, they aspire to expand their service verticals to semi-urban areas of north and eastern parts of India. Furthermore, they believe their collaboration with some major financial brands such as Aditya Birla Capital, HDFC life, Motilal Oswal, SBI Mutual Funds,HDFC Ltd,Bajaj Finance ,Bajaj Life, etc., is their foremost achievement as their esteemed clientele testifies their excellence.
WORDS TO BE CONVEYED
As a concluding note, Vandana conveys some parting words for our readers,”India is a country of savers and domestic saving is very high percentage of GDP. We should try and make our nation not only good saver but also become good investors by propagating concept of right asset allocation to the length and breadth of the country.” 29

Consider Long Term Investment in Learning. In order to turn ordinary life into extra, you have to keep educating yourself every day. It could be a skill that you know nothing about it right now, but after six or seven or at the end of the year, you know them. Keep growing yourself wherever you get a chance to learn something, do not let those chances go away. Keep challenging your brain to try new things.
#4
Become Financially Independent Credit Cards, Loans, and other EMIs allow people to live certain quality of life instantly -this life is chosen by ordinary people. Over time, debt impacts people’s financial stability in the near and long term. To become financially independent, you must stay away from debt. You need to prioritize saving and investment as well. Read some financial education books, it will give you more clarity to manage cash flow, tax, and more. That’s what extraordinary people do. Always dream big but also be ready to face difficulties.
#5
Equally, Deal with The Success and Failure Failure and success both are part of our lives, most certainly part of the business. As an extraordinary, you keep trying new things in life, either you will see lots of success and failures. There will be sunny and stormy days. In that case, you should be ready to deal with the situation. Create situations where you are able to make it through financially, emotionally, physically, and mentally.
Succeeding in life and being an extraordinary person is not that easy task. It takes effort and time to become one. However, as you become extraordinary, people will start following you. One of the most important things is that extraordinary people care for others.

“Healthcare is vital to all of us some of the time, but public health is vital to all of us all of the time.” -C. Everett Koop Healthcare is the lifeline of a country. From treating minor illnesses to serious diseases, to providing compassionate care to those in need of it, healthcare services have ensured the survival of the human race. Moreover, the advent of the pandemic has underlined the importance of healthcare. Now more than ever, people need institutions they can depend on for their health and well being. Primedical Healthcare Services is one such institution, devoted to looking after the populace with the best possible care and expertise. Founded by Dr. Affnaz Ahamed, CEO, in December 2019, Primedical Healthcare is devoted to serving the community by providing them with exceptional medical care and expertise.
INCEPTION STORY “History shows that crises are startup incubators,” states Dr. Affnaz. Some of the most innovative and successful companies of today were a product of the most significant economic downturn after the Great Depression, the 2008 recession. Companies like Uber, Venmo and Whatsapp were launched during this time, doing their part in helping people adapt to a changed world. In the last six months itself, there has been a drastic increase in health tech startups, owing to the current pandemic. In alignment with this historical trend, the inception of Primedical Healthcare Services during this time has proved to be a valuable ally in the battle against COVID-19. What fueled the desire to establish their own organisation that provided healthcare services for Dr. Affnaz and Dr. Ghaniya was a lack of accessible outpatient facilities in their home state of Kerala. Both of them being doctors, they observed that people in Kochi were unable to receive effective and affordable medical care, and committed themselves to providing just that. VISION To be the preferred and trusted choice of patients in Kerala for health and wellness, delivered through the science of healing and utmost patient care.

LEADERSHIP AND WORK CULTURE The healthcare firm operates under the care of a successful doctor and skilled entrepreneur, Dr. Affnaz Ahamed. According to Dr. Affnaz, “Leadership is the art of motivating a group of people to act towards achieving a common goal. It’s important to know the strength and weakness of the subordinates in order to develop the skill and knowledge to guide them.” Along with a commitment to provide compassionate care to the general people, Dr. Affnaz has devoted himself to taking Primedical ahead with employing marketing strategies and plans for future growth. He believes that Research and Development are an integral part of planning and strategizing. It opens up new paths for the leaders to create and modify their plans for the future and their roadmap for attaining set goals. It is crucial for entrepreneurs to keep themselves updated to stay relevant in the market. R & D contributes to steady, consistent growth of the company in the local and global market. For any business or product to become successful, good marketing is essential. Primedical follows the standard formula of print and social media marketing, but it is “word of the mouth” marketing that is their prime focus. Client and patient referentials invoke trust and reliability, and thus Primedical encourages a sharing of experiences at their various facilities among the clients’ families and peers. They strive to maintain their clients’ faith and always put them first, so that their clients speak for them. With respect to cultivating a team that is just as committed and dedicated to organizational goals, Dr. Affnaz promotes transparency and respect. Motivating and encouraging teamwork helps in increasing the productivity and efficiency in the company.
