HYDERABAD, India – September 11, 2025 – Nasuni, a leading unified file data platform company, today announced the opening of a third innovation center located in Hyderabad, India. This strategic expansion enhances the company’s global product development capabilities and supports its commitment to scaling engineering excellence worldwide.

“Each of our centers plays a critical role in advancing Nasuni’s technology, enabling our teams to move faster, think bigger, and deliver solutions that modernize enterprise file infrastructure, said Andres Rodriguez, Chief Technology Officer at Nasuni. “With the addition of Hyderabad, we’re unlocking new levels of talent and product development velocity.

Together, we are establishing a deep tech center that will leverage our best-in-class enablement capabilities to attract top talent in India, build cutting-edge solutions, and accelerate Nasuni’s growth trajectory.”

Hyderabad, often referred to as “Cyberabad,” is a thriving community of technology and innovation, home to some of the world’s most influential software companies and a deep pool of engineering expertise.

Helping lead the center in Hyderabad is Nasuni Senior Director and India Site Leader, Peddareddappa G (GPR). “I was drawn to Nasuni not just by the market opportunity, but by the people I met throughout the interview process,” said GPR. “The collaborative culture and transparent communication made it clear this is a place where I could make a real impact. I’m proud to help build Nasuni’s footprint in India and contribute to the company’s exciting future.”

Mumbai, 11th September 2025: Prime Video and Coolberg today announced their first-of-its-kind collaboration for Amazon’s upcoming Original series, Do You Wanna Partner, a quirky and vibrant story about two best friends who come together to begin their entrepreneurial journey by launching a beer start-up. Ahead of the series launch, Prime Video and Coolberg are bringing the series’ signature concoction to life with the refreshing Coolberg Jugaaro Lemon-Ginger non-alcoholic malt beverage. In a remarkable parallel, Coolberg – India’s No.1 non-alcoholic beer brand – is led by three ambitious women, Salloni Ghodawat, CEO, Yashika Keswani, Co-Founder, and Ritika Agrawal, Brand Lead.

Prime Video and Coolberg Collaboration

This landmark integration between the digital streaming and F&B industries redefines how brands connect with new-age audiences. With India housing over 116 million Gen Z consumers (Mintel Report), the rise of mindful drinking is shaping beverage trends, and Coolberg is at the forefront of this cultural shift.

The story of Coolberg, the flagship brand of Ghodawat Consumer Limited (GCL), is deeply tied to the vision of crafting a premium, alcohol-free alternative for Indian consumers. Today, under the leadership of Salloni Ghodawat, CEO of GCL, Coolberg – along with To Be Honest (100% real fruits and vegetables snack brand), another youth-focused startup acquired by GCL – is resonating strongly with Gen Z and millennials. Together, these brands are rewriting the FMCG playbook with inclusivity, innovation, and bold choices.

The collaboration with Prime Video bridges on-screen storytelling with an off-screen innovation. Just like the series’ protagonists who fight against the odds, Coolberg’s leadership team – including Salloni Ghodawat, Yashika Keswani, and Ritika Agrawal – embodies the same spirit of challenging conventions and building iconic lifestyle brands.

Speaking on the collaboration, Salloni Ghodawat, CEO, Ghodawat Consumer Limited (GCL), stated, At Ghodawat Consumer Limited, we believe great brands are built on stories of resilience and inclusivity. Coolberg’s journey, much like the series Do You Wanna Partner, is about women breaking barriers and shaping new possibilities in the industry. With Coolberg Jugaaro, we want to offer not just a refreshing product but also a reminder that the future of FMCG belongs to diverse voices and fearless ideas.”

The limited-edition Coolberg Jugaaro Lemon Ginger will be available across 3500+ GT stores, 50 MT outlets (including Nature’s Basket, Walmart, STAR Localmart, and 7- Eleven), 800+ HoReCa destinations (Absolute BBQ, BBQ Nation, Wow Momo), and leading quick commerce platforms such as Blinkit, Zepto, and Swiggy.

Set against the vibrant chaos of urban life, the series captures the duo’s journey to carve a niche in the male-dominated world of craft beer. As they defy norms, bend rules, navigate eccentric encounters, and brew their destiny with style, tenacity, and a whole lot of jugaad, Do You Wanna Partner serves up a sharp yet heartwarming portrait of female ambition and agency. With its offbeat yet heartwarming storytelling, the series captures the highs, lows, and beautiful mess of building something from scratch.

MD Sundararaman Ramamurthy

Speaking on the importance of financial awareness, Ramamurthy urged students to rely on research and informed judgment rather than market speculation. “You want to trade a stock? Don’t ask for tips. Go and do research. Whether that stock is good, bad, or ugly… information is available equally to all. Youth with money in their pockets generally feel on top of the world. But unknowingly, be walking in darkness. That is why discipline, awareness, and responsibility are critical when it comes to financial decisions,” he said.

Mr. Ramamurthy’s insights on responsibility, awareness, and ambition align with our vision of preparing students to be not only skilled professionals but also responsible citizens.”

The session concluded with the reminder that today’s students are tomorrow’s nation-builders, and with the right guidance, they are equipped to carry forward India’s journey of growth with integrity and purpose.

8 Factors That Can Derail Your Property Investment

– By Anil Pharande, Chairman of Pharande Spaces

Experienced real estate investors recognize that anticipating obstacles is equally important as identifying opportunities. Ignoring possible dangers might reduce profitability and jeopardize long-term objectives. Let’s look at eight of the most pressing challenges, as well as concrete measures for protecting your returns.

1. Rising cost of capital – reduces real returns

Borrowing costs influence both your financing expense and the benchmark yield you seek to outperform. India’s policy repo rate rose from 4.0% in January 2020 to 6.75% in August 2025, a 2.75 percentage point increase, while consumer inflation averaged 5.1% yearly throughout the same period. When your mortgage interest rate or other cash returns equal or surpass inflation, your ‘real’ profit approaches zero.

Strategy: Get fixed-rate loans when borrowing costs are low. Also, choose micro markets with above-average rental and capital appreciation.

For example, Moshi, Punawale, Ravet, Wakad, Pimpri, and Pimple Saudagar in Pimpri-Chinchwad Municipal Corporation (PCMC) have all delivered above-average rental yields of about 4-5% and capital appreciation of 8-12% CAGR over the last three years, thanks to PCMC’s metro and superior highway connectivity, proximity to IT/industrial hubs, and rapid infrastructure upgrades. In another scenario, in 2024, rentals in Hyderabad’s IT corridor increased by 7.8%, compared to a national average of 4.6%.

taxes

2. Taxes – a predictable drag if not managed

Stamp duty, registration fees, annual property taxes, and capital gains taxes can all devour 15-30% of your overall earnings. For example, buying a Mumbai property for Rs 1.2 crore in 2015 and selling for Rs 2.4 crore in 2025 results in a 20% tax on half of the profit, reducing your net gain to just 24% over 10 years.

Strategy: Consult a tax professional to maximize potential deductions including first-time homebuyer stamp duty refunds, Section 80C principle deductions, and Section 24(b) interest write-offs. Consider adding Real Estate Investment Trusts (REITs) to reduce pass-through tax rates.

3. Regulatory surprises and compliance risks

Land-use regulations, environmental approvals, and registration requirements may change rapidly. In 2023, Maharashtra’s RERA rule required projects to refile documents within 90 days or face suspension; one Pune developer saw resale prices drop 12% within two months of their RERA registration expiring.

Strategy: If you have invested in land for development, consult with a legal expert before registering for RERA or obtaining land titles. Also, keep an eye on local planning boards for rezoning requests or infrastructure plans that may affect growth possibilities.

4. Oversupply and changing demand patterns

What’s blazing hot today may cool tomorrow. Bengaluru’s Whitefield corridor added 15,000 units between 2021 and 2024, exceeding demand and resulting in a 9% price reduction in early 2025. Meanwhile, CBD office demand fell 14% as hybrid work gained hold, while peripheral business parks experienced 6% annual value improvements.

Strategy: Monitor absorption rates; less than six months of inventory indicates good demand. Favour mixed-use complexes that combine residential, retail, and office space to diversify income streams. Integrated townships are excellent investments from this standpoint.

5. Sales and liquidity constraints

Real estate is inherently illiquid, and forced transactions frequently result in 10-to-20% discounts. During Pune’s 2020 COVID shutdown, ‘urgent sale’ listings sold at significant discounts. If debt commitments or situations necessitate a speedy leave, discounts can deplete equity.

Strategy: Maintain cash reserves that cover 12-18 months of expenses and financing charges. Maintain loan-to-value (LTV) ratios below 60% to decrease refinancing risks.

safety risk

6. Natural Disasters and Safety Risks

Floods, earthquakes, and cyclones may all devastate property values overnight. Thane’s low-lying suburbs had major monsoon floods in September 2022, resulting in an 8-10% value decrease and Rs. 250 crore in insurance claims. While ordinary plans cover structural losses, they rarely address market depreciation or company interruptions.

Strategy: Avoid high-risk floodplains and earthquake zones whenever possible. Invest in comprehensive, flood-adjusted insurance riders and set up emergency maintenance funds.

7. Opportunity cost of capital

A Rs. 5 crore investment in a Mumbai property yields a net rental yield of roughly 4% per year, whereas an identical amount invested in, say, a data centre or a luxury property in a popular vacation destination earns 7-8% for a comparable credit risk. Failure to compare other assets may lock you into inferior allocations.

Strategy: Conduct thorough opportunity-cost evaluations, comparing predicted internal rates of return (IRR) for various asset categories, including residential, industrial warehouses, REITs, and infrastructure loans. To maintain flexibility, consider allocating a portion of your portfolio to liquid securities such as REIT units or bonds.

8. Macroeconomic and geopolitical shocks

Interest rate changes, currency volatility, and political tensions all have an impact on the real estate market. The 2022-2023 China-Taiwan impasse reduced foreign direct investment in India’s housing industry by 15% while delaying project launches by 10%. Crude oil price spikes frequently drive central banks to hike borrowing costs, putting pressure on both developers and buyers.

Strategy: For large projects, prefer local currency financing and consider interest-rate swaps. Also, stay up to date on global developments and shift your focus to resilient segments such as logistics parks if cross-border threats worsen.

Developing a Strong Investment Plan

No one flaw will shipwreck every transaction, but the cumulative effect of these risks can be disastrous. Always calculate ‘real’ net gains after deducting all taxes and inflationary effects. Diversify across asset classes and markets, combining residential holdings with commercial, industrial, and alternative assets to smooth returns.

Maintain prudent leverage and liquidity, and if you are serious about your real estate investments, always seek expert advice – work with chartered accountants, legal experts, and local market analysts to negotiate complexity and avoid issues.

By incorporating these risk-mitigation measures into your investment strategy, you ensure that your real estate holdings not only expand, but also withstand changing market cycles and unexpected shocks.

PHD Chamber of Commerce and Industry (PHDCCI) Submits Key GST-Related Issues to Chairman, CBIC

The meeting was called by Chairman CBIC, to discuss the GST reforms, rate rationalisation and their implementation. The objective is to ensure their smooth implementation, address technical queries and ensure wider dissemination of these reform measures. PHD Chamber of Commerce and Industry (PHDCCI) has submitted a detailed representation to the Chairman, Central Board of Indirect Taxes and Customs (CBIC), highlighting few concerns and clarifications required on GST- 2.0

The Chamber welcomed the Government’s continued focus on simplifying GST compliance and strengthening ease of doing business, while emphasizing the urgent need to resolve several practical challenges being faced by stakeholders across sectors.

Key Issues Submitted by PHDCCI

1. Accumulated Compensation Cess – Large unutilized balances of Compensation Cess remain in the hands of distributors and retailers in the automobile and beverage sectors, requiring a policy resolution.

2. Inverted Duty Structure in Food & Pharma Industries – Refund of input services and capital goods is presently disallowed, leading to working capital blockage.

3. Anti-Profiteering Applicability – Practical difficulties in implementing anti-profiteering provisions at the distributor and retailer level need reconsideration.

4. Unutilized Cess Credit in Automobile and other Sector – Significant Cess balances remain unutilized, and proposed amendments have led to a slowdown in vehicle purchases. Clarification is required on the treatment of these balances to avoid taxpayer losses.

5. Accumulated ITC due to GST Rate Reductions – With reductions in GST rates, ITC accumulation has become a cost burden on companies. Refund of such ITC should be permitted, since mandatory benefit passing to consumers often leads to financial strain.

6. Passing GST Reduction Benefits – The mechanism for passing benefits should allow flexibility beyond MRP relabeling, such as through discounts or equivalent measures, duly substantiated.

7. Impact of ITC Reversal on Exempt Goods – Clarification is sought on the treatment of costs arising due to ITC reversal and blockage on goods that have newly become exempt.

Clarifications Requested on Post-Sale Discount Issues

In line with the GST Council’s earlier recommendations, PHDCCI has requested the CBIC to issue a comprehensive circular on post-sale discounts to remove ambiguity and litigation. The Chamber has sought clarity on the following matters:

· Non-reversal of Input Tax Credit (ITC) where discounts are passed through financial/commercial credit notes.

· Treatment of post-sale discounts as additional consideration in dealer–customer transactions.

· Whether post-sale discounts given in lieu of promotional or marketing activities by dealers are to be treated as taxable consideration.

PHDCCI reiterated its commitment to work closely with the Government in ensuring GST 2.0 becomes more industry-friendly, transparent, and growth-oriented. The Chamber expressed confidence that with timely interventions and clarifications, the GST framework can further strengthen India’s competitiveness, attract investments, and reduce compliance disputes.

Supporting these star ingredients are Phytosphingosine, a calming active that soothes redness and irritation, and botanical extracts of Gotu Kola and Cucumber, which deliver hydration, clarity, and antioxidant protection.

The result is a serum that not only strengthens and restores the skin barrier but also works on fine lines, wrinkles, and visible damage, leaving skin smoother, plumper, and visibly radiant. Its lightweight, biocompatible texture makes it suitable for all skin types, including sensitive skin, and ensures that it layers seamlessly into any skincare routine.

To use, simply apply a few drops on cleansed, damp skin, patting it gently until absorbed. Follow up with your favourite moisturiser and sunscreen. With regular use, skin feels more resilient, calm, and youthful from within.
