SAVE’s New Habitat Housing Finance Opens its Latest Branch in Indore, Now Offering Housing Loans in Madhya Pradesh

Indore (Madhya Pradesh) [India], March 28: New Habitat Housing Finance and Development Limited (NHHFDL), the Housing Finance subsidiary of SAVE Solutions Pvt. Ltd., has opened its latest branch in Indore, Madhya Pradesh. With the current presence in the states of Delhi NCR, Bihar, Jharkhand, Rajasthan,  Uttar Pradesh, and Uttarakhand, SAVE’s New Habitat Housing Finance is all set to offer affordable home loans in the state of Madhya Pradesh. This new branch is located at 327 & 328, Shree Krishna Divine, Marimata Square, Indore, Madhya Pradesh, which will serve the customers of Indore and adjoining districts. With this, the organization also plans to expand into the Malwa region of the state and is very soon going to open branches in Ujjain & Mandsaur.

This move is not only directed at creating greater availability of housing loans for the underserved segment of aspiring home buyers but is also targeted to support more employment opportunities for the youth residing in the region. The Loan Products offered by the company include all types of Housing Loans (purchase/construction/renovation) and Non-Housing Loans (loans against residential & commercial property), especially for those that have limited access to the formal credit system.

Ajeet Kumar Singh (MD, CEO, and Co-Founder, SAVE Group) says: “With the addition of the Housing Finance Subsidiary, the aim of the organization has been to bring individuals into the realm of formalized credit in the affordable housing segment. While financial inclusion has been the primary objective of the group, by ensuring more financial awareness and literacy through its parent company, providing access to credit for various customer-centric needs is the ultimate solution. The pandemic has taught all of us how important it is to have our own home, and through New Habitat Housing, we are trying to cater to this basic need for our consumers.  With the expansion into new territories, SAVE is trying to offer its myriad of products across the country and is determined to establish its presence in locations which are underserved by the formal banking system.”

Our particular focus is on those individuals who are unable to avail of loans from the bank but have sufficient income to pay the loan through smaller EMIs.  SAVE’s New Habitat is dedicated to ensuring that the process of home ownership is eased for the home buyers, particularly in tier 2 and tier 3 cities.”

ICA Italian Wood Finishes – Good Taste Shows

Mumbai (Maharashtra) [India], March 28: ICA Pidilite offers a range of exquisite wood finishes from Italy, the land of fashion and design. This glamorous range of luxury wood finishes represents the highest standards of quality and finesse and allows architects and interior designers to express their unique style, vision and artistic sensibilities. It is also perfect for homeowners to display their discerning taste and to build the interiors of their dreams.

ICA has just released a short film depicting how their glamorous wood finishes influence people’s moods, tastes and preferences. ‘The Mother’s Visit’ is a unique film based on the simple insight that good taste can influence and win over even the most cynical and hard-to-please.

The film begins with an Italian couple welcoming the girl’s rather stern mother into their luxurious and well-designed home. At the outset, we see an air of nervousness between the three as the mother struggles with the fact that her daughter eloped and married without her consent. We see the young leave the room to give the mother some time and space.

Mother now left alone looks around herself. She spots a picture frame of the couple. As she looks at it she breaks into opera in Italian expressing her woes. She places the picture down on the console and gets distracted by its attractive metallic finish, Luxurious Moon Rock textures combined with a Satin Metallic touch. She looks quite impressed with the finish. Continuing to sing, she looks around herself, and slowly we see her mood start to shift from distress to joy and wonder. She catches her reflection on a dining table’s high-gloss ICA Lucido mirror finish and admires herself in it. She then saunters over to a wall with an artistic finish on it – ICA Maltawood (due to the use of colourless resins in their formulation, these products give the surface an elegant and polished appearance). Last but surely not least; she stops to take a selfie next to a gorgeous bar cabinet with knobs finished using the ICA Creativa Metal series (designed to give surfaces an antique look, while maintaining superior aesthetics). Its unique and distinctive look easily sets it apart from other wood finishes.

The luxurious house with its gorgeous finishes appears to have mesmerised the once-upset mother and uplifted her mood, even adding a new spring to her step. She seems to have accepted that even though her daughter married someone without telling her, she chose well  an aesthete, a man of good taste. The film ends with her in a joyful embrace with the young couple. 

Mr. Manish Airee, Sr. Vice President of Sales & Marketing ICA Pidilite, said “This is the first time we have released a film made in India for our audience. We want to communicate to our consumers how persuasive design can be. Through this film, we want our consumers to know that ICA Pidilite’s good taste and great finishes are recognizable and that they meet the same high-quality standards as in Italy. We at ICA discover how changing consumer preferences can influence businesses and we try to respond to continuously evolving trends and tastes.” 

Link to the short film: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZlJTUIoT8Wo

Creative Team, Alok Nanda and Company (ANC) says, “Our decision to use opera as a medium was governed by the Italian provenance of Brand ICA Pidilite. Our objective was to create a film that looks like an out-and-out Italian production, and that’s why we had an opera singer from Italy sing it for us. With sophisticated humour, an elegant cast, brilliant music, and a very premium setting, we were able to stay true to the DNA of the product: Premium Italian Wood Finishes. With a gorgeous product, a talented team, and high production values, we knew we had all the ingredients to create a great film. And now, if the viewers like it, we won’t be surprised. After all, good taste shows.”

GD Goenka Public School, Lucknow celebrates Naatu Naatu’s victory with inclusivity and brotherhood

Lucknow (Uttar Pradesh) [India], March 28: When any movie, song, or personality wins a prestigious “Oscars” like academy awards, it’s not just the artists or the production crew that wins, rather the whole nation emerges victorious. Recently, India experienced this sense of international achievement when the Naatu Naatu song from the movie RRR won the best original song award at the Oscars. What made this victory even more remarkable was the Indian film industry’s 14-year long wait. India is a country rich in values of strength, resilience, equality and diversity, which are reflected in its art and culture.

This triumph of Naatu Naatu earned India high praises, particularly among South Asian countries. Naatu Naatu emerged as a song that painted whole India in the colors of pride, unity and celebration, making the world recognise the prowess of Indian art and culture, and dance to the Indian tunes.

Among the millions of rejoicing hearts over the marvellous win, few were of the goenkan’s. Highlighting the movie and song’s message of Inclusivity and brotherhood, GD Goenka public school, Lucknow, organised a groovy celebration on the tunes of Naatu Naatu, with all its students, teachers, blue-collared staff and other members of administration, whose dedicated efforts and devoted duties have raised the school’s prestige so far. Even though this victory filled each Indian’s hearts with pride, GD Goenka Public School, lucknow, especially connected with the win on a deeper level.

GD Goenka has been known to incorporate values of art, culture, brotherhood and resilience not just in its students but also in its complete administration. Time and again GD Goenka has set an example of its inclination towards a holistic learning that gives equal weightage to academics and extracurricular activities. GD Goenka truly stands on the values of equality, inclusivity and resilience.

While talking with Media, Sarvesh Goel, The Chairman of Mansingh Goel group and Chairman, GD Goenka Public School Lucknow said “Taking this win as a chance to showcase that the school not only teaches the importance of art & culture by words but also in action, Goenkans choreographed and grooved onto the beats of victory, the beats of Naatu Naatu. The Oscar win not only filled Goenkans with pride and happiness, but also with a feeling of reflection of its own connection to art and culture.

” Seeing this victory as a fortunate chance to honor India’s rich cultural legacy and pride, the entire school got immersed in a celebratory mood. A celebration that made the entire GD Goenka management, from teachers and principals to the blue-collar staff members to pause and honor the proud win in their own groovy way, such as the gardeners while trimming the lawns, teachers in the hallway, bus drivers while waiting for the students, members of theatre group of the school, children while playing sports and so on. Thereby, displaying the dance of pride in India and the exhilaration of a worldwide victory.

The video was created and shared on all of GD Goenka Lucknow’s official social media accounts. On the question of the viral video of Naatu Naatu school dance on social media, Mr. Goel stated, “People are liking our performance reel on Instagram and Facebook, and we are getting good reactions. Despite the fact that exams are taking place and the school is closed for junior sections, our 31 high school students, 11 administrative staff, 57 teaching staff, 36 grade IV employees, gardeners, cleaners, seven guards, mades, bus drivers, and myself performed this group act on behalf of the management. The end result was fantastic, and it also demonstrated the level of bonding and love among the staff and students, making us one of the top-best schools in Lucknow.

” This sense of pride, joy and celebration was ignited into Goenkans and in fact the whole world, by RRR. A movie that not only vibrantly represented India’s rich art, culture and history, but also celebrated our deep-rooted values of brotherhood, diversity and valor, and such patriotic devotion towards the motherland bore fruits of recognition. RRR and its song Naatu Naatu not only hit the chords of valor, celebration and brotherhood but also, they strung the idea of inclusivity.

Indeed, it was not just the song that won the Oscars, rather the message of equality and inclusivity in the upbeat notes blowing the trumpets of and for India.

A celebration of Victory, a celebration of Inclusivity and a celebration of Pride in Mother India.

Earlier where traders and investors were using traditional trading systems, now they are using algo based trading system where orders are executed in less than a second. Fast trading systems are now becoming a need for the traders and investors.

The introduction of higher STT will impact the sentiments of traders and investors who want to make a full-time career in the stock market. In recent we observed that many professionals like CAs, Lawyers, Doctors, engineers are making it a full-time career option.

Young generation adopted it as a fulltime profession. Data shows that due to the participation of new age investor the volumes also increased unexpectedly which boost the market as well as the economy.

Increase in STT will increase the cost to the option traders and reduce the profits which affects the sentiments of Tech-savvy youth. It can also lead them to move away from the profession. This may lower the volume like we saw at the time when government increased the CTT, resulting in commodity trading volumes decreasing drastically.”
