India 14^th November 2025: – Rallis India Limited, a Tata enterprise and a leading player in the Indian agri-inputs industry, announced its partnership with Paryan (Paryan Alliance Pvt ltd.) as the licensed technology partner for FullPage® Herbicide Tolerance Rice Technology in India.

The collaboration marks a significant step towards advancing sustainable and climate-smart rice cultivation practices in the country. Through this agreement, Rallis India will introduce FullPage®, a next-generation rice technology designed to enhance productivity, improve weed control efficiency, and deliver substantial water and cost savings for Indian farmers.

FullPage® is a comprehensive rice cropping system that integrates advanced herbicide-tolerant seeds, compatible crop protection solutions, and tailored agronomic practices. The system supports Direct-Seeded Rice (DSR) cultivation — helping reduce water usage, lower methane emissions, and improve overall resource efficiency compared to the conventional transplanting method of rice cultivation.

Speaking on the partnership, Dr. Gyanendra Shukla, Managing Director & CEO, Rallis India Limited, said: “At Rallis India, we are committed to enabling Indian farmers with innovative and sustainable technologies that address key agricultural challenges. Our collaboration with Paryan for FullPage® technology reinforces our focus on delivering climate-smart solutions that enhance productivity while promoting resource efficiency and environmental sustainability.”

Shirish Barwale, Executive Director, Paryan, added: “We are delighted to partner with Rallis India, a trusted name in Indian agriculture. With Rallis’ strong presence and deep connect with farmers, we look forward to accelerating the adoption of FullPage® technology, making rice farming more efficient, profitable, and sustainable.”

Why this technology matters for Rallis India Limited

Rice is India’s largest cultivated crop, covering more than 44 million hectares, yet it faces increasing challenges from water scarcity, labour costs, and weed management. FullPage® technology, combined with rice hybrids from Rallis under the Dhanya brand, aims to mitigate the challenges posed by the traditional transplanting method of rice cultivation:

·         Efficient Weed Management: Enables effective control of weeds and weedy rice, ensuring better yield stability.

·         Water and Labour Savings: Promotes Direct-Seeded Rice cultivation, reducing water consumption by up to 25–30% and minimizing labour requirement

·         Water and Labour Savings: Promotes Direct-Seeded Rice cultivation, reducing water consumption by up to 25–30% and minimizing labour requirements.

·         Improved Productivity: Supports better crop establishment and enhanced yield potential through advanced hybrid genetics.

·         Environmental Benefits: Helps lower methane emissions and supports India’s sustainability goals in agriculture.

For Rallis India, this partnership strengthens its strategic focus on innovation-led, sustainable agri-solutions and expands its presence in the high-potential rice segment. It positions the Company at the forefront of next-generation seed and crop protection technologies in India.

Timeline for Technology Introduction

Rallis will work with paddy farmers in India to initiate field demonstrations and gather the required information regarding agronomic performance and stewardship practices, followed by a phased scale-up for broader farmer access, which will help improve cultural practices for maximum benefits. The pilot demonstrations across key agronomic states and limited commercial sales will begin from the Kharif season of 2026. 

This timeline aligns with Rallis India’s commitment to ensuring responsible technology introduction, supported by farmer training, stewardship, and sustainability protocols. This partnership underscores both organizations shared vision to advance agricultural innovation and sustainability, driving meaningful impact for farmers and the planet.

Hyderabad, Nov 13: The much-awaited ResoFEST 2025, the annual cultural and educational celebration hosted by Resonance Junior Colleges and Resonance Schools, commenced with grandeur at the Gachibowli Stadium, setting the stage for an unforgettable showcase of creativity, achievement, and inspiration.

The opening day witnessed an enthusiastic gathering of over 7,000 students representing 35 campuses across Hyderabad and Telangana. The atmosphere brimmed with energy as students came together to celebrate learning beyond classrooms, through art, performance, and innovation.

Shri Kiran Abbavaram, Indian Actor & Screenwriter; being felicitated, as Shri Purnachandra Rao N. (Extreme Right), Managing Director, Resonance Educational Institutions; looks on, at the ResoFEST 2025, college festival hosted by Resonance – Hyderabad Centre; today at Gachibowli Indoor Stadium.

An Evening of Eminence and Inspiration

The inaugural evening was graced by distinguished guests from diverse fields, including Shri S. Krishna Adithya, IAS, Secretary, Telangana Board of Intermediate Education, Govt. of Telangana; and Dr. Jaiteerth R. Joshi, CEO & MD, BrahMos Aerospace.

Adding cinematic brilliance to the celebration were acclaimed film personalities Shri Nag Ashwin, Indian Film Director; Shri Sharwanand, Indian Actor & Producer; Shri Kiran Abbavaram, Indian Actor & Screenwriter; Shri Priyadarshi, Indian Actor & Comedian; Ms. Suma Kanakala, Indian Actress & Producer; and Ms. Anandhi, Indian Actress; whose presence elevated the event’s charm and inspired students to pursue their passions fearlessly.

Each guest shared personal insights on perseverance, creativity, and purpose, urging students to embrace learning as a lifelong journey. Their words resonated deeply, reminding the young audience that success stems not from competition, but from curiosity, discipline, and self-belief.

Shri S. Krishna Adithya, IAS, Secretary, Telangana Board of Intermediate Education, Govt. of Telangana; addressing the students said, during a conversation with Mr. Purnachandra Rao of Resonance, I shared my own memories from intermediate days and the kind of pressures students often endure during that phase. I asked him if things were any different at Resonance, whether students here get opportunities beyond academics, with access to sports, proper lab practicals, meditation, and other avenues for balance. He smiled and showed me photos and videos that reflected exactly that, a healthy mix of learning, activity, and well-being. It genuinely made me happy, and that’s what brought me here today. The teenage years are the most defining phase of your life. Everyone around you wishes to see you do well, but at the end of the day, it’s your journey. How focused you are, how committed you remain, will decide how far you go. These two years are an investment in your future; the harder you work now, the brighter your life will be. Whatever path you choose, pursue it with passion, because when you love what you do, even hard work feels light and stress takes a back seat.

Speaking on the occasion Shri Nag Ashwin, amidst rapturous cheers from the students said, he was amazed by the high-octane energy and brilliance of the students. Though many of you may be aspiring to become engineers, the world is on the brink of a massive transformation. In the next few years, you’ll witness a wave of new opportunities, giving you the freedom to explore, experiment, and choose careers driven by passion rather than convention, he remarked. When asked about his interest in the Puranas, he said, I draw immense inspiration from them. Even reading a single page makes me realize how little we know, the depth of knowledge and wisdom from that era is truly astounding. Answering a question on what motivates him, he smiled and said, Deadlines! The closer they get, the more alive and driven I become to get things done.

Shri Kiran Abbavaram said, I wasn’t quite sure what I could share with you all, If I were to speak about technology, I must admit, my knowledge is probably less than half of what you already know. This generation learns at lightning speed and the opportunities before you are far wider than ever before. Life will always present challenges, but it’s important to move forward with happiness and purpose. Chase the dreams that truly make you happy. Choose the path that helps you excel and don’t waste time and energy trying to imitate others. Your own journey is your greatest strength.

A Showcase of Talent and Togetherness

The evening featured spellbinding performances in dance, music, and theatre, each reflecting the confidence and collaborative spirit nurtured within Resonance campuses. Winners of inter-campus competitions were felicitated for their creativity and leadership, while achievers who secured admissions into premier institutions were honoured on stage.

Education Beyond Boundaries

Addressing the gathering, Mr. N. Purnachandra Rao, Managing Director of Resonance Educational Institutions and an alumnus of IIM Ahmedabad, spoke about the institution’s journey and its unwavering commitment to academic excellence with purpose.

He shared, ResoFEST is where learning meets life, a celebration of curiosity, creativity, and character. It’s not just an event; it’s an experience that reflects the soul of Resonance, where students discover their strengths, embrace individuality, and learn the deeper joy of shared success.

He emphasized that Resonance’s philosophy is rooted in nurturing intellect with integrity, creating an ecosystem that balances academic rigor with values, innovation, and emotional intelligence. Under his leadership, the institution has grown from a single vision into a comprehensive educational ecosystem encompassing Schools, Junior Colleges, Foundation Programs, and E-Learning Divisions each designed to prepare students for both competitive success and meaningful lives.

These new campuses will integrate modern pedagogy with time-tested educational values, offering a holistic learning experience that empowers students to think critically, lead confidently, and live responsibly.

He concluded, at Resonance, our mission is not just to educate but to elevate, to help every learner realize their true potential and become contributors to a better tomorrow. These new schools represent that very vision of education that resonates with purpose, compassion, and excellence.

Sopaan Presents AIKYAM 2025 at Ajanta & Ellora, Celebrating UN@80 Through Oneness of Culture, Science and Spirituality

Chhatrapati Sambhajinagar (Aurangabad), November 13, 2025: Sopaan, an arts and culture initiative, in collaboration with UNESCO, Maharashtra Tourism and the city of Chhatrapati Sambhajinagar, is set to unveil a one-of-its kind celebration of art, heritage and innovation, a confluence of cultural brilliance and artistic diversity from across the global diaspora. AIKYAM 2025, symbolising oneness of humanity, is a three-day celebration marking the historic 80th anniversary of the United Nations, set amid the spectacular UNESCO World Heritage Sites of Ajanta and Ellora, honouring India’s timeless cultural and spiritual heritage.

Founded by former Indian Ambassador Monika Kapil Mohta and cultural entrepreneur Siddhaant Mohta, AIKYAM launches a new series of immersive cultural journeys across India’s most iconic sites, presenting experiences rarely accessible to the public in this format. Rooted in the philosophy of oneness, of science and spirituality, humanity and nature, and India’s ancient faiths of Buddhism, Jainism and Hinduism, AIKYAM embodies the country’s timeless wisdom, sustainable practices and alignment with the UN Sustainable Development Goals. It reflects the masterful knowledge of the universe possessed by ancient Indians and celebrates sustainable practices drawn from this deep cultural consciousness. Scheduled from November 21-23, 2025, the weekend celebrations will feature Omkar, a classical ballet choreographed by internationally acclaimed artist Gauri Sharma Tripathi, to be performed at Ellora’s magnificent Kailasa Temple with artists from Argentina, Italy, Lithuania, Netherlands, Peru, Poland and Spain, creating a true cross-cultural dialogue through the language of art.

The event will feature talks by Dr. Timothy Curtis, Director, UNESCO Regional Office in India, author-historian William Dalrymple and cultural commentator Nick Booker, along with curated Maharashtrian culinary experiences, folk performances and textile showcases. Highlights include the recreation of a historic classical concert once presented at the United Nations and a live mural painting by Brazilian artist Sergio Cordeiro, who will create a contemporary interpretation of the Ajanta murals. Bringing together over 30 cultural ambassadors and diplomats, AIKYAM 2025 will champion India’s soft power, immersive heritage experiences and global harmony through art, culture and sustainability.

Siddhaant Mohta, Co-Founder and Director, Sopaan, shared, “We are honoured to present AIKYAM, an artistic celebration set against the timeless grandeur of the Ajanta and Ellora Caves. This confluence of music, art, dance and dialogue pays homage to the spiritual and cultural essence of these magnificent heritage sites. Rooted in the values of science, sustainability and spirituality, AIKYAM marks UN@80 and seeks to inspire reflection and foster meaningful exchange. Through this endeavour, Sopaan is crafting spaces for cross-cultural dialogue and global artistic collaboration. Cultural ambassadors from over 30 countries will gather to celebrate this spirit of unity through heritage, strengthening the bridge between India’s living traditions and the world’s shared future. We aim to create an immersive experience that not only captivates audiences but also deepens their connection with India’s artistic legacy and vision for a harmonious, sustainable future.”

Dr. Timothy Curtis, Director, UNESCO Regional Office in India, said, “India’s heritage sites are not just symbols of the past, but dynamic spaces that continue to shape our collective future. Ajanta and Ellora, among the country’s first UNESCO World Heritage sites, stand as living testaments to the creativity, spirituality and knowledge that have long defined this region. They remind us that heritage is living, evolving and central to building a sustainable future. Through initiatives such as AIKYAM 2025, we foster dialogue among civilizations through cultural exchange, reflecting the very essence of UNESCO’s mission: to build peace through culture, education and shared understanding.”

Reinforcing this spirit of harmony between heritage and progress, G. Sreekanth, Municipal Commissioner of Chhatrapati Sambhajinagar, extended a heartfelt message to all participants. “On this momentous occasion marking the 80th anniversary of the United Nations, it gives me immense pleasure to extend a warm welcome to all the esteemed dignitaries joining us for AIKYAM–UN80 in Aurangabad.

May AIKYAM stand as a bridge between tradition and innovation, inspiring a future of harmony, creativity and global unity.”

A spokesperson from Maharashtra Tourism commented, “The world-famous heritage sites of Ajanta and Ellora are among Maharashtra’s most treasured legacies and a testament to India’s enduring spirit of coexistence and creativity. Through AIKYAM, we are proud to join hands with UNESCO and Sopaan to spotlight the state’s rich heritage, encourage sustainable cultural tourism and promote investment in the sector. Heritage tourism contributes significantly to Maharashtra’s economy, reinforcing our commitment to preserving our cultural wealth while driving inclusive growth. This initiative embodies Maharashtra’s vision to preserve our heritage and share it with the world as a living source of learning, inspiration and pride.”

Cultural tourism accounts for nearly 40% of tourist arrivals in India, with the country’s heritage tourism market estimated at USD 19.9 billion in 2024. According to research, the market is projected to reach USD 27.1 billion by 2033, growing at a CAGR of 3.5% during 2025-2033.

Mumbai 13th November, 2025:- At a time when technology dominates every aspect of life, the Raintree Foundation has launched a unique campaign, ‘I Am Not a Robot,’ to remind people that saving the planet needs heart — not just machines.

The campaign urges individuals and communities to reconnect with nature and act consciously for the planet. It turns the familiar CAPTCHA phrase into a statement of purpose — “I am human. I act for the planet.”

Raintree Foundation has been working across Maharashtra’s Western Ghats — in regions like Velhe and the Shastri River Basin — where it focuses on water conservation, biodiversity, and rural livelihoods. The new campaign draws from this work, emphasizing that while technology can help, it is human empathy and action that truly drive change.

‘I Am Not a Robot’ will unfold across digital platforms, universities, and public spaces:

• Digital Launch: Interactive posts on social media will invite people to “Prove you’re human — act for the planet.”
• On-ground Engagement: Installations and booths at youth festivals like Mood Indigo and Frames will encourage participants to share personal pledges for the environment.
• Public Dialogue: Articles, podcasts, and panels will explore how compassion and responsibility can strengthen India’s climate movement.

The campaign aims to connect with young people, urban citizens, and the Indian diaspora — inviting them to reflect, participate, and take small, meaningful actions for a healthier planet.

Through ‘I Am Not a Robot,’ Raintree Foundation hopes to inspire a movement that goes beyond awareness — one that puts empathy at the heart of climate action.

The celebration brought together guests of all ages for an afternoon filled with joy, laughter, and the delightful messiness of holiday preparations.

The cake mixing ceremony is a time-honoured Christmas ritual dating back centuries, symbolizing unity, prosperity, and the spirit of togetherness. Held around 40 days before Christmas, it involves blending dried fruits, nuts, and spices soaked in rum and wine, which are then allowed to mature until baked into traditional Christmas cakes. The act of mixing represents sharing joy and blessings while preparing for the season of giving.https://youtube.com/shorts/xvz-vr_Gqfw?feature=share

The event transformed the hotel into a winter wonderland, with participants donning festive reds and shimmery attire as they immersed themselves in the Christmas cheer. Guests gleefully plunged their hands into bowls brimming with rum-soaked raisins and wine-dripped cashews, creating heartwarming holiday memories. Children joined the fun at a dedicated, alcohol free station, enthusiastically tossing together dried fruits, nuts, and vibrant fruit juices, creating their own cheerful holiday mix in a safe and inclusive way.

“The beauty of this tradition is that it brings everyone together – from our youngest guests in Santa hats and aprons to families creating memories that will last a lifetime,” said Subhankar Bose, General Manager, Sheraton Hyderabad Hotel.

A major highlight of the afternoon was the grape stomping activity, where guests got to experience the traditional winemaking process first-hand.

While the cake mixing took center stage, guests also indulged in an array of culinary delights from the hotel’s in-house bakery. Warm donuts, freshly baked cakes, and pastries paired beautifully with chocolate fountains cascading over seasonal winter strawberries. The spread also featured crowd favourites like pizzas and traditional dal pakwaans, ensuring something special for every palate.

“The cake mixing is one of our most joyful traditions — it brings guests together through food, laughter, and festive spirit,” said Satya Kumar, Executive Chef, Sheraton Hyderabad Hotel. “It’s a wonderful way to start the holiday season on a sweet note.”

The atmosphere came alive with carol singing and festive music as the hotel associates joined in the merriment, dancing and cheering alongside guests. The sounds of laughter and Christmas carols filled the air, creating an authentic and heartwarming holiday experience.

Chandigarh, November 13, 2025: – Uber today announced that teens in India can now sign themselves up on the app by linking their accounts directly, making the process faster and more flexible for the use of its Uber Teens product in India. The update is part of a broader set of enhancements to Uber’s Teens and Family features, aimed at making travel safer, simpler, and more inclusive for families across generations.

With this new self-onboarding process, teens gain the independence to manage their own Uber accounts while guardians retain full visibility and control. Uber has also extended Uber One membership benefits to teens, ensuring that if a guardian has an active Uber One Membership, the teen enjoys the same perks, with cashback accruing in the family’s member hub. More people in the family using Uber now means more savings for those with Uber One membership.

These updates to Uber for Teens have been made keeping in mind how tech-savvy and independent today’s teenagers are. Young users are often early adopters who lead the way in exploring new apps, digital services, and features, often influencing how their families use technology. By allowing teens to sign themselves up on the platform with guardian approval, Uber is making it easier for them to experience safe and supervised travel while building familiarity with the app. The change aligns with how teens engage with technology today and helps foster responsible mobility habits early in life.

For families, Uber has made it easier to stay connected by removing the need for a shared payment method. Users can now create a Family profile without a common credit card, making it simpler to add multiple members – each of them using their own payment method, cash or digital.

Speaking on the updates, Shiva Shailendran, Director, Consumer Growth, Uber India and South Asia, said, “We understand that every family is different, and the needs within a household can vary widely. Teens today are far more independent, and we wanted to give them the flexibility to manage their own Uber accounts in a safe and supervised way, with approval from their guardians. At the same time, we are making it easier for families to stay connected on the platform and ensure that everyone, from teens to seniors, can travel comfortably and confidently.”

Uber has also introduced a dedicated Seniors profile in India, designed for older users who prefer a lighter, more accessible experience. Guardians can track rides, request trips, and manage saved places for their loved ones, while seniors benefit from an automatic switch to simple mode, which features larger text, fewer buttons, and easy-to-follow screens.

Nisus Finance Reports H1 FY26 Results; Consolidated Revenue at INR 142.3 Crore, Higher Than FY25 Full-Year Revenue of INR 67.3 Crore

Mumbai, November 13, 2025: Nisus Finance Services Co. Ltd. (BSE: NISUS) has delivered its strongest half-yearly performance to date, with H1 FY26 results surpassing full-year FY25 metrics and signalling a new scale of growth for the business. The company posted INR 74.89 crore in revenue from its core operations during H1 FY26, already exceeding the full FY25 revenue of INR 67.30 crore. The company achieved consolidated revenues (including New Consolidated Construction Co. Ltd. or NCCCL) of INR 142.30 crore in the first half, up sharply from INR 34.36 crore in H1 FY25, representing exceptional year-on-year expansion.

The sequential momentum remains robust: Q2 revenue stood at INR 46.17 crore, up 61% over INR 28.72 crore in Q1 FY26, driven by realisation of investment gains, increased transaction flow and enhanced contributions from both Indian and UAE operations. EBITDA for the half year reached INR 62 crore consolidated, with the ex-NCCCL margin hovering around 74%, one of the highest in the industry. Profit after tax (PAT) reached INR 35.6 crore, reflecting disciplined cost management, high operating leverage and diversified income streams.

Commenting on the results, Amit Goenka, Managing Director of Nisus Finance, said: “Our H1 results reflect the disciplined execution of our growth strategy and the value of our diversification across geographies, asset classes and business models. The acquisition and integration of NCCCL, the Dubai expansion and the strengthening of our capital base have positioned Nisus as a genuinely diversified alternative-investment and infrastructure platform with a global edge. We enter the next phase with clarity of purpose and confidence.”

The acquisition and integration of New Consolidated Construction Co. Ltd. (NCCCL) marked a significant milestone in Nisus’s growth journey, creating a fully integrated urban infrastructure platform with financing, asset management, and execution capabilities. NCCCL brought in FY25 revenue of INR 608 crore and an order-book of over INR 2,350 crore across 30+ projects with AAA developers. With a targeted 2× increase in its order-book to INR 5,000 crore with higher margin order book mix including— data centres, hospitals, institutional buildings, Grade-A offices, and industrial facilities, the platform provides significant scale potential and operational diversification.

Internationally, Nisus made its largest global investment to date in a 24-storey residential tower in Dubai’s Motor City — for INR 525 crore. Acquired at a deep discount to market value, the asset delivers a rental upside of ~38% and projected IRR in the range of 24%–32%. The transaction reinforces Nisus’s GCC strategy and positions Dubai as a core investment hub for its global real-estate business.

Complementing these strategic moves, Nisus achieved a landmark credit-rating milestone by becoming the first Indian AIF business to secure a BBB+ rating from CareEdge, signalling institutional-grade governance standards, zero-loss investment history and consistent investor returns. Balance-sheet indicators are equally compelling: the INR 110 crore facility raised for NCCCL’s acquisition has already been partly repaid by INR 60 crore via stake sales and internal accruals, share pledge levels have been reduced to ~18-19% and the company’s own capital contribution in investments has increased from INR 48 crore to INR 106 crore, indicating promoter conviction and financial discipline.

On the people and culture front, Nisus has introduced an ESOP programme to reward top performers, was awarded by prestigious Global Real Estate Institute in the “Fundraising of the Year” category for a uniquely structured INR 145 crore investment by our Fund and has earned the Great Place to Work® certification for 2025, reinforcing its commitment to culture, talent and performance.

With a high-quality platform, expanding footprint, strong balance sheet and a scalable business model, Nisus Finance is well-positioned to sustain momentum and deliver differentiated value to investors, partners and stakeholders.
