Under his leadership, we plan to accelerate the expansion of our Zero Trust architecture to secure human and machine identities alike, ensuring Zscaler remains the industry’s most trusted security platform for the AI era.”

A 30-year technology veteran who previously led AI strategy at a global financial analytics leader, Kocherlakota plans to accelerate the expansion of the Zscaler Zero Trust Exchange™, the platform trusted by 45% of the Fortune 500 organizations, to secure agentic workflows. Under his leadership, Zscaler plans to innovate deeper in the AI stack, providing the foundation AI developers and business leaders need to protect against the complex new spectrum of cyberthreats.

“Zscaler defined and pioneered Zero Trust security for users and applications, and I believe it’s the only company with the data and architecture required to secure the AI era,” said Swamy Kocherlakota, Executive Vice President of Agentic AI Engineering, Zscaler. “I look forward to helping our customers accelerate this transformation, enabling them to empower their business leaders while rigorously protecting their intellectual property, brand, and data.”

Tata Capital has launched its inspiring campaign, #ChampionsKiGulliyonMein, celebrating how today’s women cricketers are creating pathways for tomorrow’s champions. Created and conceptualised by Schbang, the campaign positions the brand as an enabler of dreams and ambition with showcasing its meaningful contribution to the growth of women’s cricket in India. 

The campaign emerges from a powerful cultural shift happening across Indian streets and pitches. For decades, gullies have been the training ground for cricketing legends in a predominantly male space. But the story is evolving. More girls are stepping onto pitches, claiming space, rewriting norms, and reshaping the future of cricket. Tata Capital supports the journeys, dreams, and courage of women who show up every day to play. 

In ‘Champions Ki Gulliyon Mein’, the narrative captures where cricket’s real foundation lies: in cramped lanes and neighbourhood streets, where raw passion compensates for polished facilities, and every small victory demands genuine effort. As the players celebrate their achievements, they echo the paths of innumerable cricketers whose first boundaries were hit in dusty streets, local grounds, and residential bylanes. This underscores a fundamental truth that champions aren’t manufactured under stadium 

floodlights, but forged much earlier, in the very gullies where dreams first take flight. 

Dipshika Ravi, National Creative Director, and Rohan Hukeri, Executive Vice President at Schbang, added,

“Every dream begins in the gullies. And every gully echoes with passion and belief. ‘The Champions ki Gulliyon Mein’ campaign speaks to millions of girls who learn to dream on the streets. Some of those dreams grow louder until one day, an entire stadium chants their name. With this film, we show that passion doesn’t watch the clock – from girls playing under the harsh 12-noon sun to champions returning to the gullies, it’s for every champion who owns the gullies.” 

The ‘#ChampionsKiGulliyonMein’ campaign establishes Tata Capital as a brand that understands that true enablement means supporting not just today’s champions, but creating pathways for generations to come.

Union Budget 2026 Must Balance Fiscal Discipline with Growth to Sustain India’s Real Estate Momentum: India Sotheby’s International Realty

Mumbai, Jan 17:  Commenting on expectations from the upcoming Union Budget, Mr. Amit Goyal, Managing Director, India Sotheby’s International Realty, said the Budget comes at a pivotal juncture as a new global economic order takes shape and India continues to position itself as one of the world’s fastest-growing major economies.

“This Union Budget arrives at a critical moment. While India remains among the fastest-growing major economies globally, the challenges are equally visible. The government will need to strike a careful balance between maintaining fiscal discipline to keep borrowing costs under control and continuing to support growth and investment. Both are essential if India is to realise its ambition of becoming the world’s third-largest economy and achieving a USD 5 trillion economic milestone,” Mr. Goyal said.

From a real estate perspective, Mr. Goyal highlighted that 2025 witnessed strong and unmistakable momentum across the sector. However, sustaining this growth will require continued buoyancy in equity markets, which reflect broader economic strength, business confidence, and foreign capital inflows.

“For the real estate sector to maintain its momentum, it is imperative that equity markets remain strong, supported by positive investment sentiment and steady inflows of foreign capital. The upcoming Budget should introduce measures that actively encourage greater foreign direct investment into the country,” he added.

Mr. Goyal also emphasised the need for robust budgetary allocations towards urban development, stating that improving liveability in Indian cities has become a critical national priority.

“Liveability in Indian cities is no longer optional. We are grappling with multiple urban challenges simultaneously—air pollution, water quality, waste management, and persistent infrastructure gaps. These issues have a direct bearing on quality of life, long-term investment confidence in real estate, and the sustainability of urban growth. Addressing them meaningfully will be crucial to supporting economic expansion and India’s evolving urban aspirations,” he said.
