For today’s management professionals, a business laptop is a decision-enabler. Whether you are a consultant in an airport lounge or a business owner, your device must offer continuity more than just speed. In the 2026 buying cycle, being Future-Ready doesn’t just mean a faster NPU, it means a device backed by a robust service ecosystem continuity, deployment stability and a “Worry-Free” ownership experience.

ASUS ExpertBook P5 (P5405CSA)

Best for: Senior leadership and AI-forward teams adopting on-device intelligence

The ExpertBook P5405CSA is an AI-PC powered by Intel Core Ultra Series 2 (Lunar Lake), LPDDR5x memory and dual Gen4 NVMe slots support smooth multitasking and storage expansion. It delivers a staggering up to 118 platform TOPS, including a 48 TOPS NPU, allowing leaders to run secure, on-device AI for real-time transcription and data summarization without sensitive company data ever leaving the machine.

• The Business Edge: Weighing just 1.27 kg with long battery life, it is the ultimate travel companion. Its ExpertCool thermal design ensures that even during back-to-back marathon meetings, performance never throttles. It supports full-range USB-C charging, including power banks and airline ports, delivers up to 20 hours of battery life on a single charge, making it ideal for frequent travel.
• The Trust Factor: This business laptop is from global well-known brand and goes beyond the hardware with a Pan-India business service network and International Warranty as standard.
• Security: Enterprise security is covered through ASUS ExpertGuardian, with BIOS protection, TPM 2.0, secured-core PC features, biometric authentication, and chassis intrusion detection.
• Worry-Free Assurance: Management pros have consistently rated ASUS business devices 4.5 to 5 stars on Flipkart, citing the best business performance, friendly DOA (Dead on Arrival) policies and deployment-friendly support as key reasons for switching from legacy brands.

Why it works: ExpertBook P5405 is a low-risk, high-reward investment that combines elite AI performance with the most reliable service backbone in the industry.

ASUS ExpertBook P3 (P3405CVA)

Best for: Scalable management teams balancing high-performance reporting with AI readiness.

The ExpertBook P3405CVA offers massive performance headroom for teams that handle data-heavy multitasking and complex operational reporting. With up to an Intel Core i7-13620H and 40W TDP, this machine is built to crunch numbers without breaking a sweat, supporting data-heavy multitasking, reporting, and operational workloads.

• Future-Proof Scaling: Unlike many competitors that solder components, this model features dual SODIMM slots (up to 64GB DDR5) and dual Gen4 NVMe slots, allowing IT teams to scale the hardware as the business grows.
• Reliability & Security: It features a high-refresh 144Hz WQXGA panel to reduce eye strain during long hours, backed by ExpertGuardian BIOS-level security.
• The Trust Factor: What sets this apart from the competition is the ASUS Business Support infrastructure. With widespread 213+ on-site service centers across 15,500+ pin codes in India, downtime is treated as a critical business failure, not just a support ticket.

Why it works: ExpertBook P3 is a high-performance powerhouse that offers a Worry-Free business experience through scalable specs and localized, rapid-response service.

HP EliteBook 640 G11

Best for: Security-focused and regulated environments

The EliteBook 640 G11 is a staple for large-scale corporate deployments where standardized security is the primary KPI.

• Managed Security: Features the HP Wolf Pro Security suite, providing self-healing BIOS and hardware-enforced protection against firmware attacks.
• Standard Display: Offers a 14-inch WUXGA (1920×1200) 60Hz panel, suitable for basic productivity but lacking the high refresh rates found in modern AI-ready competitors.
• Sustainability Focus: Built with 50% post-consumer recycled plastic in the keycaps, aligning with corporate ESG goals.

Why it works: It is a safe, predictable choice for IT departments that value standardized management tools over aggressive performance tuning or the service agility provided by other models in this list.

Dell Pro 14 Premium

Best for: Client-facing managers who value design and presentation quality

The Dell Pro 14 Premium focuses on premium design and is tailored for the “visual” manager, emphasizing a sleek magnesium chassis and high-quality conferencing tools.

• Vivid OLED Display: The 2.8K OLED 60Hz panel delivers exceptional contrast for high-stakes presentations and branding work.

• Elite Conferencing: Boasts an 8MP HDR + IR camera with presence detection, offering one of the sharpest video call experiences in its class.
• Refined Portability: Uses a magnesium alloy body to keep the weight around 1.26 kg, making it easy to carry between meetings.

Why it works: While it excels in visual polish and conferencing, it relies on soldered memory, which limits futureproofing compared to the dual-slot expandability of the other business laptops in this list.

Choosing the right management laptop in 2026 ultimately depends on the specific priorities of your organization’s infrastructure. HP remains a stalwart for organizations where deep-rooted security protocols are the primary drivers. Dell continues to lead for client-facing roles where display aesthetics is paramount for brand representation. While legacy players offer stability, ASUS earns a definite thumbs-up for its agile approach to service (friendly DOA policies and extensive service network) and its commitment to hardware longevity, and these are factors that are increasingly becoming the “trust-winners” for the next generation of Indian business leaders.

Mumbai, Feb 10:  Sky Gold and Diamonds Limited, today announced its Q3FY26 results for the quarter ended December 31, 2025. The company has continued a strong growth momentum, backed by rising exports, capacity enhancement plans, and deeper retail partnerships across India, the Middle East and Southeast Asia.

Q3 FY26 and 9M FY26 Financial Highlights (Consolidated)

 Commenting on the results, Mr. Mangesh Chauhan, Managing Director, Sky Gold and Diamonds Limited, said:

 “Our Q3 FY26 performance reflects the strength of our execution-led growth strategy, with consolidated revenue rising about 76% year-on-year and 19% sequentially, supported by sustained demand across domestic and export markets. Despite elevated gold prices and periodic volatility, the preference for lightweight, design-led jewellery has remained resilient, particularly with increasing adoption of 9kt and diamond studded jewellery formats among Gen Z consumers. It is further fueled by an increase in the advanced gold jewellery business and adding new marque customers in the Indian and Middle east market. Improved scale, deeper B2B partnerships and a growing international footprint have translated into strong operating leverage, with EBITDA more than doubling year-on-year and margins expanding to 7.34%.”

“Profitability continues to track ahead of revenue growth, with PAT increasing over 120% year-on-year, reflecting disciplined cost management and a higher share of value-added manufacturing. Looking ahead, while gold prices may remain range-bound in the near term, the medium-term outlook remains favourable, supported by structural demand drivers and the ongoing shift towards organised manufacturing. As we move into the final quarter of the year, our focus remains on strengthening execution, enhancing margins and scaling our global presence in a calibrated manner, supported by a healthy order pipeline and improving export traction.”

Operational Performance & Growth Drivers

Sky Gold and Diamonds continues to deliver industry-leading performance, consistently outpacing organized jewellery manufacturers across key operational and financial parameters. Backed by a structurally efficient cost model and disciplined capital deployment, the company remains focused on driving sustainable margin expansion while advancing its global growth agenda.

Key highlights for Q3 FY26 include:

• Inauguration of Dubai Office– Dubai office inaugurated in presence of industry veterans

Valentine’s Day gifts often fall into two familiar categories—perishable flowers that fade in days, or predictable chocolates and teddy bears that barely surprise. But love doesn’t thrive on clichés. It lives in comfort, care, and small moments of everyday magic.

And Valentine’s Day isn’t just about couples. It’s about celebrating everyone who matters—partners, parents, siblings, best friends, and even that cousin who never lets you leave hungry.

This season, move beyond fleeting gestures and discover gifts designed to become part of everyday love stories—practical, thoughtful, and made to last long after February 14.

&TV’s quirky supernatural comedy Gharwali Pedwali continues to add fresh layers of drama, emotion, and humour with the entry of the talented and versatile Sapna Thakur, who steps into the show as Reeta Pandey, a character that promises warmth, maturity, and an interesting new dynamic to the story. Known for her expressive performances and strong screen presence, her entry promises to deepen the emotional fabric of the show while balancing its supernatural chaos.

Sharing her excitement on joining the show, Sapna Thakur aka Reeta says,

“I was instantly drawn to Gharwali Pedwali because of its unique concept and the way it blends humour with emotions. Reeta is a very grounded and graceful character; she is modern in her thinking but deeply values relationships and family bonds. Her entry track itself says so much about her nature. When Jeetu plans a surprise for Saavi and involves Reeta, it shows the trust he places in her and the understanding she brings into the family. I loved how my introduction wasn’t loud or dramatic but warm, emotional, and meaningful.”

Expressing about her entry she further adds, “I relate to Reeta a lot in real life. She is sweet yet slightly sour, fun-loving, and always cheerful, and I feel I share those qualities too. Like her, I believe in modern thinking and constantly try to learn and evolve with time. Comedy was one of the biggest reasons I said yes to this show- I have always loved watching and performing comedy and wanted to explore this genre for a long time. The added fantasy element made it even more exciting, as I truly enjoy imaginative storytelling presented in a light-hearted, entertaining way. What excites me the most is that Reeta adds a new emotional layer to the show. Amid all the chaos of supernatural twists and comedy, she represents calm, clarity, and emotional maturity. I think audiences will relate to her instantly because she reflects real-life relationships, where support, understanding, and unspoken care matter the most. Working with such a talented cast has been a beautiful experience, and the energy on set is truly infectious.”

Bengaluru, India, Feb 10:   Blutic, Neokred’s in-house cookie management platform, has been officially verified on Google Tag Manager (GTM), making Neokred one of the few Indian companies to receive this recognition. The certification is awarded after Google’s rigorous technical evaluation, highlighting Blutic as a secure and reliable platform that enterprises can confidently leverage for DPDP Act-compliant cookie management.

The GTM verification allows enterprises to deploy the cookie management platform, Blutic, with ease. It helps follow privacy laws like the DPDP Act, capturing customer consent for data usage like ads or analytics, without friction to the user experience. For everyday end-users, it means simple cookie banner pop-ups to choose what data to share, building trust as their choices are respected across sites without slowing things down. This matters now with rising data privacy discussions.

What is Blutic, and why does the GTM Certification matter?

Blutic is designed to help digital platforms capture granular, purpose-driven consent on how customers’ cookie data is collected and used. In line with regulatory requirements, it enables end users to easily accept, deny, customize, withdraw, or modify their consent at any time, giving them clear visibility and control over their data choices. 

With Google Tag Manager verification, Blutic has cleared Google’s technical and security checks and is now listed in the GTM gallery, reinforcing trust and reliability for clients. This makes it easier for businesses to deploy consent directly through GTM and ensures smooth compatibility with Google Analytics, Ads, and other GTM tags. The pre-approved template also reduces implementation errors and compliance risks.

For enterprises, this means faster setup with minimal engineering effort. It also ensures tags are fired only after the right user consent is captured. Teams get centralised control to manage consent and tag behaviour from one place, while collecting cleaner and more reliable analytics data.

The recognition comes at a pivotal time, as organisations across India fast-track their efforts to comply with the Digital Personal Data Protection (DPDP) framework. With regulatory expectations becoming stringent around consent, data usage, and auditability, enterprises are looking for platforms that can operationalise compliance without compromising customer experiences.

“This recognition reinforces what we’ve always focused on building reliable, compliance-ready infrastructure that enterprises can trust,” said Rohith Reji, Co-founder & CEO of Neokred. “Our teams have worked relentlessly to build a platform that makes consent management practical with ease. Customer feedback has played a key role in shaping Blutic, and this certification gives us even more confidence to keep working to make compliance easy for organisations.”

“I believe this is an important milestone for us,” emphasises Tarun Nazare, Co-Founder and Managing Director, Neokred.  Tarun adds, “It enables our customers to get their hands on valuable insights without compromising user trust. This recognition is a testament to  our commitment to building accurate, dependable infrastructure that aligns with global standards while staying rooted in India’s DPDP requirements.”

Neokred operates as a modular digital infrastructure provider, supporting enterprises across profiling, payments, consent, and privacy-led data flows. Its solutions are built for organisations across BFSI, ecommerce, healthcare, and other regulated sectors, helping them implement compliance at a system level rather than through fragmented manual processes. With Blutic now GTM Verified, Neokred continues to strengthen its position as a privacy-first infrastructure partner for enterprises in India and beyond in this ever-evolving, complex regulatory environment. 

For over 140 years, Victorinox has stood as a global symbol of preparedness, precision and Swiss ingenuity—trusted through its iconic Swiss Army Knife™, watches and travel gear. In 2026, the brand marks a decisive evolution in India, elevating its watch business from a functional accessory to a position of true horological authority.

This transformation is not cosmetic. It is rooted in deep manufacturing expertise, uncompromising engineering and a bold portfolio that firmly establishes Victorinox as a serious Swiss watchmaker in the Indian market. At the centre of this evolution lies Delémont, Switzerland—the heart of Victorinox’s watchmaking excellence.

Built in Delémont: Where Credibility Is Crafted

Since 2016, Victorinox has consolidated every aspect of watchmaking at its 17,800-square-metre Watch Competence Centre in Delémont, located in the Swiss Jura—horology’s spiritual home. Sustainability is integral to the facility, with 2,750 square metres of solar panels generating 500,000 kWh of clean energy annually, combining Swiss heritage with future-ready responsibility.

More than 200 Swiss specialists design, prototype, manufacture, assemble and rigorously test every Victorinox timepiece entirely in-house. From bezels and cases to movement integration and final assembly, quality is owned—not outsourced. Each watch undergoes a meticulous, multi-stage process that can take up to two years, exceeding statutory Swiss-Made standards. For Indian consumers, this means every Victorinox watch is not merely Swiss-made, but Swiss-crafted, Swiss-controlled and Swiss-tested.

Declaring Watchmaking Intent in India

As part of its 2026 India roadmap, Victorinox introduces the campaign “Spend Your Time Wisely”, reinforcing its transition from a reliable timekeeper to a brand defined by horological excellence.

Under the leadership of Debraj Sengupta, Managing Director – Sales & Marketing, and Avirup Mukhopadhyay, Head of Marketing, Victorinox is positioning watches as the emotional and technical core of its future in India. With over 30 years in the watch industry and 15 years at Victorinox India, Sengupta brings deep category credibility, while Mukhopadhyay’s FMCG-driven perspective introduces a disruptive, consumer-centric approach. Together, they aim to redefine the Swiss watch conversation in India.

The 2026 Watch Portfolio: Precision Meets Ambition

Victorinox’s 2026 portfolio showcases Swiss engineering at its finest:

• Air Pro GMT Automatic – Designed for globally mobile professionals, tracking up to three time zones with refined GMT functionality.

• Concept One – Available in automatic and solar-powered variants, offering up to 68 hours of power reserve and 8 months of autonomy without light.

• Dive Pro Collection – ISO 6425-certified professional dive watches with 300-metre water resistance, anti-magnetic protection and extreme durability.

• Square One – A bold square case with automatic movement, introducing a confident, contemporary design language.

A Tribute to India

Recognising India’s love for colour, individuality and confidence, Victorinox introduces renewed editions of two iconic collections:

• Maverick – Reimagined with bolder aesthetics for leaders who set their own path.

• I.N.O.X. Elegant – Legendary toughness meets refined sophistication with interchangeable straps and elevated design.

Together, these collections celebrate India’s dual spirit—resilience and elegance.

As Victorinox steps into 2026, its journey in India is no longer just about heritage. It is about horological legitimacy. From Delémont’s engineering floors to India’s wrists, every Victorinox watch carries a promise of Swiss precision, tested beyond standards and built to be trusted for life.
