Election Commission of India has recognized the Pravasi-led Kerala Pravasi Association (KPA) as a political party

Election Commission of India has recognized the Pravasi-led Kerala Pravasi Association (KPA) as a political party

14 May 2022 – Thiruvananthapuram – Kerala – The Kerala Pravasi Association (KPA) formed under the leadership of Pravasi was approved by the Election Commission of India. KPA formed the political party with new ideas to replace the anti-democratic and opportunistic politics of the country’s fronts.

The Election Commission of India has registered Kerala Pravasi Association as a political party under registration number 56/071/2021-2022/PPS-I.

The Kerala Pravasi Association’s entry into politics is under the slogan ‘Self Sufficient and Self Reliant Kerala” through Pravasi’s.

According to government figures for 2020, 18 million people from India live outside the country. India has the highest number of expatriates in the UAE (3.5 million), the USA (2.7 million), and Saudi Arabia (2.5 million). Australia, Canada, Kuwait, Oman, Pakistan, Qatar, and the United Kingdom are among the countries hosting Indian immigrants, according to a report by the United Nations Department of Economic and Social Affairs. According to the World Bank, remittances from expatriate Indians to India in 2021 were $ 87 billion.  If we take people who are working or living in other states into consideration, the expatriate community (Pravasi’s) makes up about ten percent or more of India’s population.  Pravasi Indians whether they are living in other states or outside India are neglected by the Governments and mainstream political parties at all stages, and they are severely exploited, rights are denied, etc.

Kerala, which has no large-scale industries or large sources of financial income, has been one of the major exporters of human resources from India to other countries or other states for decades. The reality is that the economy of the state is mainly dependent on remittances and expatriate deposits.  The expat community, which covers over one-third of the population of Kerala, contributes about 37% of the GDP of Kerala. Hence, Kerala Pravasi Association has started its activities from Kerala.

Rajendran Vellapalath, Chairman of Kerala Pravasi Association (KPA) said; “KPA aims to be the common voice of for all Pravasi Indians irrespective of whether they are living outside of their state or outside of India. We also aim to build a self-sufficient corruption-free New India with the participation of the Pravasi Indians, using their International experience and exposure, work experience, expertise, strength, and enthusiasm to overcome any challenge, etc.

The initial mission of the Kerala Pravasi Association is to implement the NRIs’ vision of 36 key  areas related to the daily lives of the people of Kerala, including poverty alleviation, agriculture, dairy development, elimination of unemployment, infrastructure development (drinking water, housing, health care, etc.),  environmental protection, etc…”

Kerala Pravasi Association does not engage in any form of activities such as bandhs and hartals, destruction of public property, and stagnation of public life as being practiced by other Political Parties in India.

Kerala Pravasi Association functions by forming Panchayat, Municipal, Corporation, District, and State Committees under a 36-member National Council. The party currently has groups in all the local bodies (941 Panchayats, Municipal, Corporations, and 14 Districts) in Kerala.

Through Kerala Pravasi Association’s Website (www.keralapravasiassociation.com), the common people in India including the expatriate community of the country have the opportunity to become active members of the Association by gaining Ordinary Membership and Active Membership from June 1.

KPA is committed to leveraging the knowledge and skills gained from the diaspora, high work culture, advanced technical knowledge, advanced job training, sense of purpose, and dedication to work for the betterment of the country. KPA is committed to implementing the views of expatriates on matters related to the daily lives of the people.

As a first step, Kerala Pravasi Association (KPA) has said that expatriates are not been able to exercise their right to consent and participate in the democratic process by casting votes in their home country as they lead an expatriate life despite being Indian citizens. Kerala Pravasi Association has approached the Supreme Court with the intention of getting Pravasi’s the right to vote.

At the same time, Kerala Pravasi Association has decided to approach the High Court against the negligence of the State Government is not taking a favorable approach in this regard, despite the High Court directing in August 2020 to raise the age limit for membership in the Pravasi Welfare Fund of the State Government to 60 years.

In addition to the above, a recruiting company called pravasijobs.com has already started with the aim of eradicating unemployment of around 40 Lakhs educated youth in the State.  The Kerala Pravasi Association has also decided to organize job fests in different parts of the country as part of promoting pravasijobs.com.

New ventures like keralastartup.com will be launched to find and promote startups from the beginning. Kerala Sree project will be formulated for the empowerment of women. It will implement the necessary schemes to make women self-sufficient.

The Kerala Pravasi Association will now be active in Indian politics as a pressure force before the government on all issues related to Pravasi Indians as well as to raise the issues faced by the common man in India.

Tech Coast Legend Checks in to Indian Startups Ecosystem via KofounderzTeam

Tech Coast Legend Checks in to Indian Startups Ecosystem via KofounderzTeam

For people who have been in the Early Stage and VC investing circuit in Tech Coast, Silicon Valley, and the USA in general, Dave Berkus is a familiar face and name but those not part of that world would perhaps not know that Dave Berkus is someone who started his business at age of 15, has invested in over 200 companies, publicly claims an IRR of 105%, has managed and led 6 funds and is Chairman Emeritus of Tech Coast Angels, one of the most active and sought after Angel Investing networks for Tech entrepreneurs from the Tech Coast and Valley.

It is hence quite a significant statement that Dave Berkus has chosen to mentor KofounderzTeam Pvt Ltd, a growth and Fundraising readiness Indian company.

Dave Berkus will be conducting a Three Webinar lecture series on:

Live Webinar Schedules:

8.30 PM IST to 9.30 PM IST

  • 26th May 22: Investor Approaches and Benefits of Early Stage Valuation
  • June 22: Governance practices and Advisory Boards that can actually help Startups Succeed
  • 16th June 22: This way to the Exit – Preparation for and proactively adding exit value

“We feel overwhelmed, humbled, and pleasantly surprised that a legend of the stature of Dave Berkus should find, what we are doing in The Great Unicorn Hunt, interesting enough to lend his name and mentoring expertise,” said Sachin Karnik, Founder, and CEO of KofounderzTeam. Karnik is a seasoned veteran in the Startup Ecosystem for close to a decade, credited for having led the spectacular turnaround of a large Angel Investing Network where he was the President for close to five years and later for having helped re-launch a British Crowd Investing company that wanted to invest in Indian Startup story.

Kofounderz Team works on a unique framework with a host of experts across a variety of domains as part of the core team of Resident Experts. The experts come from diverse areas, such as Legal and Compliance, Intellectual Property, SME Listing, Strategy, Operational Excellence, and Early Stage Mentoring. Kofounderz team has recently launched the national Ecosystem platform called www.thegreatunicornhunt.com which has attracted marquee VCs, Angel Investors, Family Offices, Corporates, Incubators, Accelerators, and Startups in a few weeks of getting launched.

The Great Unicorn Hunt is a free-to-register portal where Startups who have the conviction about becoming Unicorns can put their best foot forward to get noticed by Unicorn Hunters and Spotters listed on the platform. KofounderzTeam, however also provides paid services at aggressively low price points in case the Startups need help to polish their deck, pitching skills, and networking opportunities with potential investors, clients, and Corporates.

Different players of our Ecosystem take great pride in picking up gems via a highly curated set of proprietary processes and research perhaps ignoring a lot of extremely promising Startups. The problem is compounded by the fact that funded Startups and their investors are left to fend for themselves to get the next rounds of funding, strategic corporate clients, and exits. The Great Unicorn Hunt is the platform where there is no gatekeeper or curation barrier. You are as good as your conviction and the slides you choose to upload on the portal.

The Great Unicorn Hunt has also recently announced a paid combo course called ‘The Magic Potion’ that includes:

(a) Three-part webinar lecture series of Dave Berkus

(b) Startupster- a  day-long, Nine-hour pressure cooker course for Founders that helps them acquire four critical skills via case studies of 40 Unicorns created and delivered by Snehal Bhat, an active Mentor and Angel Investor who expertly blends his Angel investing experience and Learning& Development expertise in this course.

(c) Deck Improvement plan to put their learning into practice. At a combo price of 9000 Rs, the course could potentially help Founders compress their learning curve and eliminate months and years of grind and the prohibitively costly way of learning only from their own mistakes!

The Highbrooks Cafe: A Cafe and Roaster Revolutionizing The International Coffee Industry With Their One Of Kind App

The Highbrooks Cafe: A Cafe and Roaster Revolutionizing The International Coffee Industry With Their One Of Kind App

Ever since it opened its first store in Jabalpur in the year 2018, The Highbrooks Cafe became a brand synonymous with high-quality coffee. Apart from offering coffee to its patrons, the cafe and roaster provide them with a wide variety of iced drinks and food items. Now, the founders of The Highbrooks Cafe have taken a giant leap towards bringing a revolution in the coffee industry by launching an application called the THC app.

Talking about this app, The Highbrooks Cafe co-founder Sanket Sharma says, “This app is based on the principles of artificial intelligence and machine learning. It offers the kind of features that one wouldn’t have come across in any food and beverage app. Its optimum extraction program will enable cafe owners across the world to optimize all the poorly extracted coffee in a way that it takes the form of a well-brewed beverage. A large number of individuals who run cafes have tested the app and have benefited hugely from it. The positive feedback that we have received so far encourages us to work towards developing it further.”

This revolutionary app is being used by cafeterias which procure premium-quality roasted coffee from The Highbrooks Roastery. Shortly after its launch, the app was lapped up by several cafe owners instantly. The kind of goodwill The Highbrooks Cafe has earned through its high-quality products in the last couple of years made both restaurateurs and chefs try out this app without any hesitation. The kind of results they received would definitely lead them to keep using it in the future.

Elaborating further on the purpose of creating this app, co-founder Vipul Abhishek states, “We firmly believe that this app will play an important role in changing the dynamics of the coffee industry for the better in the near future. The objective behind developing this app was to minimize the consultation cost charged by the Q grader. We have attempted to do this by introducing a subscription plan at a nominal cost. The app comes with simple features and offers easy functionality. Even those who are not too familiar with new-age technology will be able to use it conveniently.”

Though the app has been launched just recently, it has already been accepted and is used by a large number of cafe owners. It is an app that has been developed in India and has the potential to make a huge impression on the coffee industry which is valued at 460 billion dollars globally. With the way it has been designed, The Highbrooks Cafe founders Sanket Sharma and Vipul Abhishek are very confident about the fact that it will go places.

THC App uses artificial intelligence to measure the extraction time or brew time of an espresso. If your customers have ever complained about the quality of the coffee offered by you being inconsistent, then the problem lies in espresso extraction. The app has been designed to offer AI-based solutions to cafe owners to ensure there is a certain degree of consistency in the espresso extraction process.

At the moment, The Highbrooks Cafe has as many as five physical stores in India, all of which are running very successfully. Some of its biggest competitors are Third Wave Coffee and Blue Tokai. The Highbrooks Cafe venture is a part of Littlegiants Hospitality Pvt ltd. which is on the verge of executing a major expansion plan.

Productivity is not a sprint. It is a marathon. To incorporate this mantra when it comes to the sales department in real life seems a difficult task with the sales team racing to meet targets. Adopting a sales platform that is futuristic and a digital twin of a physical sales space helps attract sales productively. A good customer experience is a driving force behind developing a strong sales strategy and it gives the business a deep insight into customer preferences and an opportunity to tweak decisions based on the analysis.

With the power of speech & NLP, data, and intelligence, DaveAI delivers a compelling customer experience across different sectors of Retail, BFSI, Real Estate, Automobile, and Fashion. DaveAI helps brands drive sales with advanced product discovery experiences using an interactive Virtual Sales Avatar that mimics a human sales brain, understands customer requirements & provides hyper-personalized product recommendations. With conversations around the metaverse taking centre stage, it is pertinent for brands to leverage platforms like DaveAI to enable product discovery in the virtual world.

“The Middle East is investing heavily in modern technology, especially AI and AR/VR. We hope to develop new frontiers in these technologies with key partnerships.”

– Dr. Ananth, Co-founder & CTO, DaveAI

Elabs helps clients build world-class CX infrastructure with a vision that focuses on a proactive approach to customer queries, reducing redundancies, providing tailormade solutions, leveraging AI capabilities and building intelligent conversations and virtual experiences for customers. Elabs aims to leverage B2B sectoral opportunities, which tend to form a large part of the regional client base, apart from B2C sectors.

“The AI market is on the rise when it comes to the Middle East region. As a partner, we hope to build a sizeable market for DaveAI’s offering in this region and establish DaveAI Middle East as a strong player within the UAE. This will help DaveAI leverage opportunities within the Government with a bespoke solution tailored to the region and grow DaveAI’s Middle East footprint within adjoining markets such as Oman/Qatar and eventually target KSA.”

– Pradeep Mohan, Business Director, Elabs

This collaboration will enable taking DaveAI’s capabilities to enterprises in the Middle East region and help them deploy innovative, intelligent experiences for their customers. By adopting different emerging technologies, this partnership will set the base for various businesses to move forward with an ‘all tech’ mindset in the middle east region.

Clean Beauty Product Curation Platform, Wohk, Raises Pre-seed Funding By Private Investor At A Valuation Of ₹10 Million

Clean Beauty Product Curation Platform, Wohk, Raises Pre-seed Funding By Private Investor At A Valuation Of ₹10 Million

Wohk – La Clean Beauty Store, one of the younger players of the fast-growing Indian clean beauty industry, has raised pre-seed funding of an undisclosed amount at a valuation of ₹10 million from a seasoned investor. Wohk was bootstrapped until now. This marks the first investment into the platform, which is still in the pilot stage, reiterating the potential of the beauty industry, even after the blockbuster IPO of Nykaa.

Funds raised will be utilized for scaling up and strengthening the operations of Wohk, upgrading technology, and also boosting partner listing to establish itself as a major alternative clean beauty marketplace to existing players in the space like Sublime Life, Vanity Wagon & Kindlife.

Wohk is a curation platform of clean beauty products that use safe ingredients, practice ethical sourcing, cruelty-free making, and eco-friendly packaging. It already partnered with the hottest brands in the space like Plink, Unsweetened Beauty, Bare Minimum, Amayra Naturals & Ancient Living.

“We are very passionate about what we do, and having investors who can see our vision is definitely a great start. We might be a new player, but we are trying to fill the gaps that are left unfilled in the market. We are working on a clean beauty framework that would enhance user experience and the quality of products we curate. There is a tremendous growth opportunity in the space as consumers are turning very conscious about the products they use and the impact of those on the environment.” said Priyanka Velamakuru, CEO of Wohk.

As we are seeing a big paradigm shift towards clean beauty products made with safe ingredients that are sourced ethically and are cruelty-free, the large multinational companies that have traditionally dominated the beauty market have started facing heat from the rise of new-age e-commerce players like Wohk and increased consumer awareness.

इमोकॉइन स्टेकिंग निवेशक के निवेश को बढ़ाने का एक शानदार तरीका

इमोकॉइन स्टेकिंग निवेशक के निवेश को बढ़ाने का एक शानदार तरीका

क्रिप्टो करेंसी के दौर में भारत में उपयोगिता सेवाओं के साथ संबद्ध अपनी तरह का पहली प्रकार का क्रिप्टो कॉइन, इमोकॉइन, लॉन्च करने के सुअवसर पर बेहद उत्साहित, सचिन शर्मा, मार्केटिंग हेड (दक्षिण पूर्व एशिया ईमो डाओ) ने जारी किए गए एक प्रेस बयान में कहा कि इमोकॉइन डिजिटल मुद्रा का सुनहरा भविष्य है। इमो पे का रोडमैप जारी करते हुए उन्होंने इस बात पर विशेष बल दिया कि इमोकॉइन डिजिटल मुद्रा का वास्तविक लोकतंत्रीकरण है जो व्यक्तियों और व्यवसायों को विश्व स्तर पर अत्याधुनिक ब्लॉकचेन, क्रिप्टोग्राफी और समकक्ष समूह टैक्नॉलाजी में निर्मित भरोसेमंद, अनाम और सुरक्षित लेनदेन करने में सक्षम बनाता है। रोडमैप के बारे में अधिक खुलासा करते हुए, सचिन शर्मा ने कहा कि इमोकॉइन इकोसिस्टम उपयोगकर्ताओं को उन अनगिनत उत्पादों और सेवाओं तक पहुंचने की अनुमति देगा, जिनकी किसी भी व्यक्ति को अपने दैनिक जीवन में आवश्यकता होती है, जिसमें क्रिप्टो वॉलेट, मुद्रा स्वैप, वेब ब्राउज़र, एक्सचेंज, स्टेकिंग, ऋण, भुगतान गेटवे, रिटेल, मनोरंजन, स्वास्थ्य सेवा तथा और भी बहुत कुछ शामिल हैं। दोहराते हुए उन्होंने कहा कि करेंसी स्वैप, वेब ब्राउजर, एक्सचेंज, स्टेकिंग, लोन, पेमेंट गेटवे, रिटेल, एंटरटेनमेंट, हेल्थकेयर तथा और भी बहुत कुछ। इमो पे ब्रांड नाम के साथ इमो डाओ का एक फ्यूचरिस्टिक डिजिटल उत्पाद है जो डिजिटल वित्तीय दुनिया में सुगम लेनदेन के लिए स्मार्ट लोगों को आकर्षित करने के लिए पूरी तरह से तैयार है।

इमो पे अपनी प्रकार का नवीनतम और संभावित पहला क्रिप्टो कॉइन होगा। इसके लाभों की गिनती करते हुए, सचिन शर्मा ने कहा कि इमोकॉइन का कोई थर्ड पार्टी रिस्क नहीं है; यह पारदर्शी, तेज और सुगम है; इसे कैपिटल रिजर्व की किसी प्रकार की आवश्यकता नहीं है; इसका जमा प्रबंधन सुरक्षित है और सबसे बड़ी बात यह कि इसमें बिना किसी मध्यस्थ के शर्तों का स्वतः निष्पादन है। इमोकॉइन से जुड़ी सेवाओं के बारे में पूछे जाने पर, सचिन ने जवाब दिया कि प्रमुख क्षेत्र शिक्षा, ई-कॉमर्स, रियल एस्टेट, यात्रा और स्वास्थ्य सेवा के साथ कई अन्य हैं।

यदि हम निवेशकों की बात करते हैं, इमोकॉइन स्टेकिंग निवेशक के निवेश को बढ़ाने का एक शानदार तरीका सिद्ध होने जा रहा है।  एक बार जब कोई निवेशक अपने इमोकॉइन को दांव पर लगा लेता है, तो वह अपने निवेशों पर स्टेकिंग अवार्ड कमा सकता है और उन भविष्य के अवार्ड्स को समझदारी से जोडता हुआ आगे बढ़ा सकता है।  आगे बोलते हुए उन्होंने कहा कि इमो स्टेकिंग बहुत ही सरल और सबसे छोटे निवेश के साथ सुलभ है और कोई भी केवल 500 ईमो निवेश करके कार्यक्रम शुरू कर सकता है जो सिस्टम में अतिरिक्त सुरक्षा प्रदान करेगा़। निवेशकों को निश्चित रूप से कार्यकाल के आधार पर पुरस्कृत किया जाएगा। स्टेक किए हुए ईमो का उपयोग उधारकर्ताओं को ऋण प्रदान करने और उधारदाताओं के लिए आय उत्पन्न करना वित्तीय बाजार में एक क्रांति ला सकता है।

वास्तव में, इमोकॉइन एक अपग्रेड है जिसमें शामिल होंगे ईमोकॉइन ब्लॉकचेन में जोड़े गए स्मार्ट कांट्रेक्ट्स जिसके लिए  ‘चेन-की-क्रिप्टोग्राफी’ का उपयोग किया जाएगा जो ब्रिज के इस्तेमाल की आवश्यकता को समाप्त कर देगी’ सचिन ने इस विषय में और जानकारी देते हुए बताया।

ईमोकॉइन की यात्रा का स्मरण करते हुए उन्होंने कहा कि ईमो वॉलेट का विकास सितंबर-दिसंबर, 2021 के दौरान शुरू हो गया था जब विक्टोरिया (शुभंकर) लॉन्च किया गया था जिस अवधि के दौरान ईमो पे यानी थर्ड पार्टी पेमेंट गेटवे इंटीग्रेशन एपीआई भी शुरू हुआ।

नए रोडमैप पर ध्यानाकर्षित करते हुए सचिन शर्मा ने उत्साहपूर्वक भावी योजनाओं के बारे में बताया। नए रोडमैप के अनुसार, ईमो डाओ जल्द ही यानी मई 2022 में भारत में प्रीपेड मोबाइल और डीटीएच सेवाओं के रिचार्ज की सुविधा शुरू करने जा रहा है।  उन्हें यह बताते हुए बेहद खुशी हुई कि इसका पहला टेस्ट ट्रायल भारत में ही आयोजित किया जाएगा। आगामी जून 2022 में ईमो स्वैप, एक पीयर टू पीयर खरीद/बेच सुविधा और ईमो पे एन्ड्रॉयड मोबाइल ऐप का लॉन्च होने जा रहा है।  जुलाई 2022 में फ्लाइट, होटल, बस, रेल, फास्टैग और मेट्रो कार्ड की बुकिंग के साथ-साथ लक्की-7 एक दिलचस्प गेम भी लांच होगी। मानसून की शुरुआत के साथ ही एक विकेन्द्रीकृत मिश्रित रियल एस्टेट परियोजना, इमोवैली के लिए पूर्व बिक्री शुरू हो जाएगी। इसके बाद इमोकॉइन रखने वालों के मनोरंजन हेतु, इमो पोकर गेम सितंबर 2022 में लॉन्च की जाएगी। ईमो डाओ, ईमो स्वैप (एक्सचेंज) और एनएफटी मार्केटप्लेस लॉन्च करने के लिए तैयार है और इस दिशा में काम पूरे जोर-शोर से जारी है। यह एक और फ्यूचरिस्टिक धमाका सिद्ध होने जा रहा है जो निवेशकों को विस्मय में डाल सकता है।

अक्टूबर 2022 से शुरू होने वाली तिमाही में अमेज़ॅन या फ्लिपकार्ट उपहार कूपन जैसे उपहार कूपन खरीदने की शुरुआत होगी, और विश्वास करें, यह डिजिटल दुनिया में एक और क्रांति होगी।

सचिन ने कहा कि वे इमोकॉइन को ऐसे स्तर पर ले जा रहे हैं जहां किसी एक्सचेंज की जरूरत नहीं होगी। इस रोडमैप को 6 महीने का रोडमैप बताते हुए उन्होंने कहा कि 2023 की अगली छमाही में ईमो डाओ द्वारा ब्लॉकचेन देखना तय है।

अगले वर्ष 2023 की योजनाओं पर बात करने से पहले, सचिन ने कहा कि उनकी कंपनी मुद्रा का शत-प्रतिशत उपयोग करने में विश्वास करती है जो हमारे सभी उत्पादों और सेवाओं को इमोकॉइन मालिकों के लिए विश्वसनीयता, जवाबदेही, चपलता और स्वतंत्रता लाने के लिए सशक्त बनाती है, जो विकेंद्रीकृत अर्थव्यवस्थाओं में भाग लेने के लिए सशक्त होंगे।

‘निकट भविष्य में हमारे सभी पोर्टफोलियो में किए गए सभी लेनदेन प्रत्यक्ष या अप्रत्यक्ष रूप से इमोकॉइन के माध्यम से होंगे। हम इस लिंक को मजबूत करने के लिए निरंतर नवाचार और विकास के लिए काम करेंगे और यह हमें अपने उपयोगकर्ताओं से जुड़ने और पारिस्थितिकी तंत्र के विकास में मदद करेगा’ पूर्ण रूप से आश्वस्त सचिन शर्मा ने कहा। ईमो स्टेकिंग पर पुनः चर्चा करते हुए उन्होंने स्पष्ट किया कि इमोबैंक में स्टेकिंग एक ऐसा कार्यक्रम है जिसमें विशिष्ट कार्यकाल के लिए सिस्टम में ईमो खरीदना और फ्रीज करना शामिल है, जहां प्रतिभागियों को उनकी स्टेकिंग अवधि के अनुसार ईमो अर्जित करके लाभ दिया जाएगा। उन्होंने आगे कहा कि इन कॉइंस को फ्रीज करने से, सभी प्रतिभागी संगठन के सुरक्षा ढांचे का हिस्सा बन जाएंगे और परियोजना के विकास में सहायता करेंगे और मुद्रा की कीमत के मूल्यांकन में वृद्धि करेंगे। स्टेकिंग कार्यक्रम में जमा ईमो का उपयोग उधारकर्ताओं को ऋण देने और उधारदाताओं के लिए आय उत्पन्न करने में किया जाएगा, उन्होंने दोहराया।

रोडमैप पर वापस आते हुए, सचिन ने कहा कि जनवरी, 2023 से जुलाई 2023 तक, ईमो डाओ मेटावर्स, यानी आभासी संपत्तियों के लॉन्च की तैयारी और ईएमओ ब्लॉकचेन के शुभारंभ की तैयारी कर रहा है।

सचिन ने उन निवेशकों को जिनके पास क्रिप्टोकरंसी पड़ी हुई है, इसका सही उपयोग करने और उसमें वृद्धि करने के लिए आमंत्रित किया। उन्होंने उन्हें वैश्विक स्तर पर ‘असीमित उधार’ के साथ उधारकर्ताओं को उधार देने की और भौगोलिक और आर्थिक बाधाओं से मुक्त पीयर-टू-पीयर उधार देने वाले विशिष्ट बैंक डिपॉजिट्स की तुलना में अधिक रिटर्न प्राप्ति के लिए सलाह दी ।

ईमो लेंडिंग प्लेटफॉर्म पर प्रकाश डालते हुए उन्होंने कहा कि यह एक ऑनलाइन स्टेज है जो निवेशकों को ‘स्मार्ट कॉन्ट्रैक्ट’ में उधारकर्ताओं और उधारदाताओं के बीच पारस्परिक रूप से सहमत ब्याज के बदले में अपने क्रिप्टो को ऋण देने की अनुमति देता है। इसे आगे समझाते हुए उन्होंने कहा कि जिन उधारकर्ताओं को वास्तविक नकदी की आवश्यकता है, उदाहरण के लिए, अमेरिकी डॉलर या यूरो मुद्रा, वे ब्याज के बदले इन चरणों के माध्यम से क्रेडिट लेंगे। इसी तरह, उन्होंने विश्वास व्यक्त किया, कि ऋण विशेषज्ञ, जिन्हें आमतौर पर वित्तीय समर्थक कहा जाता है, जिनके पास कुछ क्रिप्टोकरंसी पड़ी है, वे इससे आसान राजस्व उत्पन्न करना चाहेंगे।

अपने बयान का समापन करते हुए सचिन शर्मा ने कहा कि वित्तीय क्षेत्र में सबसे बड़ी चुनौती भरोसे की कमी है। बैंकिंग संगठन अपनी उधार देने की प्रक्रिया में अधिक कठोर होने के साथ, समय, लागत और ऋण प्राप्त करने की परेशानी उपभोक्ताओं को बाज़ार में उधार देने के लिए मजबूर कर रही हैं। उन्होंने कहा कि उधारकर्ताओं को उच्च लागत, जटिल प्रक्रियाओं, लंबी अनुमोदन प्रक्रिया, सूचना तक पहुंच, व्यक्तिगत डेटा का भंडारण, भरोसेमंदता, धन तक पहुंच, पारदर्शिता की कमी और सख्त उधार मानदंड का सामना करना पड़ता है।

सचिन ने इसे एक बड़ा अवसर बताते हुए कहा ‘यह समय उपभोक्ता की बात सुनने, उनकी जरूरतों को समझने, उनकी चिंताओं के प्रति सहानुभूति रखने और उन्हें स्मार्ट लक्ष्यों के साथ संबोधित करने का है। यदि हम अपने लिए उपलब्ध रिसर्च का उपयोग करते हैं, नवीनतम तकनीक को अपनाते हैं और नवाचार के साथ जुनून को जोड़ते हैं, तो हम उपभोक्ता की मांगों को बेहतर ढंग से पूरा करने के लिए बेहतर सेवा समूह बना सकते हैं। ब्लॉकचेन पर वित्त के मुख्य कार्य को लाकर हम स्मार्ट अनुबंध की मदद से फ्यूचर-प्रूफ सेवाओं में काफी सुधार कर सकते हैं।’

Product Comparison and Reviewer – Bestcheck

Product Comparison and Reviewer – Bestcheck

BestCheck.in helps you Compare Products, and choose the Best from the Rest.

Do you skip comparing products before purchasing them? We suggest you shouldn’t. Sometimes, the suggested products on the e-commerce aren’t worth investing in.

And products that are hidden back on the 2nd or 3rd page of the website, are worth purchasing. But many of us never visit these pages. So, how to know whether the product is worth purchasing or not.

BestCheck will help you in this case!

Let’s see why you will remain on the safer side while using BestCheck before purchasing goods online.

Why BestCheck before Online Purchasing?

BestCheck is one of the best Product Comparison websites in India. There’s a group of creative enthusiasts working to suggest the best products for you to choose from.

We, the bestcheck team, look for the highest demanding products amongst our customers and in the market. Following it, we order 10+ best models of that product and test them all.

After testing them, we select the top 3-4 models and suggest you purchase them if they fit your requirements. We also mention how we chose these products and why we eliminated other models.

Being independent, we come up with the true pros and cons of the models that we are suggesting. Without hiding anything from our customers, we follow transparency while suggesting the best products.

Advantages of Referring to BestCheck

The best part of BestCheck– we DO NOT STALK you! We mean to say, like other websites, we do not store your information in cookies and then ghost you everywhere with ads for the same product.

Until and unless you interact with our website directly by commenting on your queries, or other activities, your data will not be stored. If there is accidental data entry from your side, we understand and help you delete that data.

Additionally, we provide FREE services to our customers. As BestCheck is an affiliate marketing platform, we earn a small reward from Amazon when customer purchases from links in our articles.

We help to save your time. You no longer need to look for different models of the required product. On the basis of tests, reviews, and ratings, we will recommend 3-4 products.

And now, you just have to select the one that you like from these 3-4 products instead of 10-12 models which creates unnecessary confusion.

How do we choose the Best Products? Why you should Trust Us?

Depending on the product’s type, we decide which features we should verify before purchasing that product. Also, we go through tons of models and verified reviews and ratings of them.

Following this process, we choose 10+ models. Ultimately, after testing them all in our Studio, we pick three or four best models that are worth investing in.

As we know that the products that we suggest are going to be a part of your house, so we try to maintain decorum while selecting them.

How We Test and Suggest Products?

Physical testing of products is necessary to know the quality of that product. Hence, after purchasing reasonable products, we test them in our studio and also record test results.

Our team members work 24×7 to create comparison guides where it gets easy for you to choose the best product.

After choosing the best, we suggest the product transparently. Displaying even the real cons of the suggested products is how we try to gain our reader’s trust.

What’s Unique about BestCheck?

The uniqueness of Bestcheck is the Product Comparison TABLE. These tables are a complete summary of each product that we are suggesting.

With every specification of the products, the Product comparison table will save your time. If you do not have time to go through the whole comparison guide, just go through the product comparison table. And there you get a complete idea of every product we are suggesting.

Another uniqueness of BestCheck is, that we do not promote things at the cost of your privacy. Storing your data in cookies, and then selling them, is not our cup of tea. Unlike almost all websites, we respect our customer’s privacy.

Our Verdict

Here’s just a gentle reminder from us that do not purchase products without comparing. Who knows, you might get a better product from the one that you were thinking to purchase. But if you skip comparing, there are high chances of you investing time and money in the wrong product.

If, in any case, you do not find the product whose comparison guide you want to read, we have a special section for it too. Just go to  https://www.bestcheck.in, and open any category from the category bar. Slide down to the end of that page. There you will see a ‘Suggest Products’ Button.  Click on it and suggest to us which product’s comparison page you want to see. So, do not forget to compare products on BestCheck, before purchasing them online!
