The Ministry of Health of Azerbaijan has announced a unique opportunity for international students to pursue a Three year Bachelor of Nursing program at an exceptionally affordable cost. Designed in line with global healthcare standards, this program opens pathways for graduates to work and settle in the UK, Canada, USA, Germany, other top European nations, and Gulf countries.

Recognised worldwide, the degree ensures students gain strong theoretical and practical training. Clinical experience is provided through 22 different hospitals, including renowned American Hospitals and MOH-affiliated institutions. For observational training, collaborations with Indian hospitals are also in place, allowing students to gain diverse exposure.

Azerbaijan, one of the richest countries in the region, offers a safe and culturally vibrant environment for study. The program’s affordability compared to private nursing colleges in many countries makes it especially attractive for students from India, South Asia, and beyond.

According to education experts, this initiative not only supports the global demand for qualified nurses but also helps students achieve international career ambitions without the burden of high tuition fees.

Gurugram (Haryana) [India], August 13: Gurugram’s property market has entered a new chapter following the Haryana government’s decision to revise circle rates across the city. The updated rates have increased between 8% and 77%, depending on location, bringing official property valuations much closer to prevailing market prices.

According to Urban Plus, a leading real estate advisory

“Prime real estate Hotspots such as Golf Course Road, MG Road, and Dwarka Expressway are expected to witness the most significant adjustments. These changes will directly impact stamp duty, registration fees, and taxation, meaning that buyers, sellers, and investors all will feel the effects. Which results in reshaping buying and selling strategies across the city.

This revision will reduce under-reporting, ensure fairer property pricing, and create a more transparent market environment,” Mr. Shailesh Singh (Director Sales) Urban Plus Infrabuild.

The change is also expected to boost confidence among NRI investors, offering greater clarity in valuations and transactions. Urban Plus recommends prospective buyers to reassess their budgets and focus on emerging corridors in New Gurugram and upcoming infrastructure zones that retain strong growth potential despite the rate increase.

“With this adjustment, Gurugram’s property market is entering a more mature and transparent phase, one that benefits those who choose their investments thoughtfully.” Added by Mr. Singh

As Gurugram adjusts to this new pricing reality, Urban Plus remains committed to guiding clients through informed decisions that align with both market trends and individual goals.

CITTA redefines Indian skincare by pairing age-old rituals with proven scientific actives because Indian skin deserves both.

Pune, India – 12 August 2025: For decades, Indian consumers have been caught between two worlds, the comfort of age-old skin rituals passed down by generations and the allure of science-backed actives dominating global skincare. But CITTA, a fast-growing premium Indian brand in skin, hair, body, and baby care, is proving that you don’t have to choose.

With its core philosophy deeply rooted in tradition backed by science and “Modern Science. Indian Soul.” –  CITTA is rewriting the skincare rulebook by formulating products that merge ancient Indian wisdom with modern dermatological efficacy.

Why This Matters for Indian Skin

Indian skin is melanin-rich, often sensitive, and exposed to tropical climate challenges from intense UV to high humidity and pollution. Many global formulations aren’t designed with these factors in mind, leading to ineffective or even damaging results.

CITTA’s hybrid formulations are designed specifically for Indian biology, lifestyle, and climate, making them more relevant and effective than one-size-fits-all global products.

“Indian skin deserves more than a turmeric label or a Western copy-paste,” says Akanksha, passionate product lead, CEO & co-founder of CITTA.

“Our products are born from India’s time-tested rituals, but they go through rigorous scientific validation in the lab. Because tradition without proof is nostalgia, and science without culture is just sterile.”

When Ashwagandha Meets Actives

CITTA’s latest range celebrates hybrid skincare:

  • Ashwagandha + Hyaluronic Acid: Stress-relief meets hydration. Perfect for Indian skin fatigued by pollution, screens and seasonal shifts.
  • Turmeric + Niacinamide: The glow of haldi enhanced by the pigmentation-reducing power of niacinamide.

Each formula is tailored to melanin-rich, sensitive, tropical-climate-prone Indian skin a category long underserved by global brands.

Science. Soul. Skin.

CITTA doesn’t identify as an Ayurvedic or herbal brand. Instead, it represents a third way in skincare where rituals are honoured, but not blindly followed. And where ingredients are emotional, but also evidence-backed.

Its products are:

Dermatologically tested and approved, clinically formulated and have skin-friendly pH, free from parabens, sulphates, and unverified herbal claims.

Designed and manufactured in India, for Indian skin and values.

From Dadi-Nani’s Kitchen to the Dermatologist’s Desk

The CITTA journey began with a personal frustration, the lack of safe, effective baby products that respected Indian traditions without compromising on safety. This question sparked the brand’s creation:

“Can I create something safe, rooted in tradition, but made with science?” says Monisha, Cosmetic Engineer, mother of two, and Co-founder of CITTA.

“As a mother, I wanted products that I could trust without second-guessing ingredients. As a cosmetic engineer, I knew how to transform our dadi-nani ke nuskhe into lab-validated, stable formulations that truly work for Indian skin.”

Today, that vision has grown into a brand trusted by thousands of Indian parents and skincare enthusiasts and available on online platforms, in curated offline stores, and even in pediatric clinics.

The COO’s Perspective

While Monisha and Akanksha lead the product innovation, CITTA’s scale and market impact owe much to its operational vision.

“Our mission goes beyond selling skincare,” says Tanay, COO & Co-founder of CITTA.

“We are building a global-ready Indian brand that can stand on the same shelves as the world’s most respected names without losing its Indian soul. That means rigorous supply chain standards, responsible sourcing, and pricing that delivers true value to the consumer.

About CITTA

CITTA is a skin, hair, body, and baby care brand designed for Indian skin, rooted in age-old rituals and powered by modern science. The brand is committed to redefining clean, culturally relevant skincare for Indian consumers with formulations that are sensorial, effective and deeply familiar.

Hyderabad (Telangana) [India], August 12: The Seventh Edition of Suchitra MUN (Model United Nations), held on August 1st and 2nd at Suchitra Academy International School, emerged as a landmark event in student diplomacy, drawing 359 delegates from 45 leading International schools across Hyderabad. The two-day conference was guided by this year’s powerful theme: MISCERE. FABRICARE. DUCERE – Blend. Forge. Lead, and showcased the future of global leadership through dialogue, debate, and dynamic problem-solving.

The event featured 8 dynamic and diverse committees, offering students an immersive experience in diplomacy, global policy, and international relations. From addressing human rights violations in the UNHRC to robust parliamentary debates in the Lok Sabha, delegates engaged with urgency and clarity–demonstrating an inspiring command of complex global issues.

Two major firsts set Suchitra MUN 7.0 apart:

Debut of the UNODC Committee: For the first time, the United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime was simulated with a historic Commission on Narcotic Drugs (CND) setup. Featuring “freeze dates” for historical accuracy, delegates navigated past and present policy decisions with remarkable strategic insight.

First-Ever Simulation of the International Esports Federation (IESF): This cutting-edge committee brought the world of competitive gaming into the MUN sphere–exploring digital governance, tech policy, and esports regulation on a global scale. A pioneering step not just for Suchitra MUN, but for the entire MUN ecosystem in India.

Another highlight was the high-stakes Crisis Committee (CCC) that explored a fictional World War III scenario. With real-time updates and unexpected turns, delegates demonstrated adaptability, teamwork, and high-pressure diplomacy at its best.

Throughout the event, the International Press Team played a vital role in capturing the energy and emotion of the conference–through timely coverage, engaging interviews, and powerful photography.

What truly set this edition apart was the sense of connection and transformation. From pre-speech nerves and midnight research sessions to passionate speeches and spontaneous alliances, Suchitra MUN 7.0 wasn’t just about global issues–it was about building global citizens.

“Suchitra MUN isn’t just a conference–it’s a launchpad for young leaders. It empowers students to speak up, think critically, and act with empathy,” said a representative from the Secretariat.

Bhopal (Madhya Pradesh) [India], August 12: In a continued effort to nurture meaningful conversations within the architecture and design fraternity, Sirca Paints India Ltd. recently hosted an exclusive Architects’ Meet on 2nd August 2025. The curated gathering served as a dynamic platform for exchanging ideas around craftsmanship, the evolving language of design, and the innovative use of materials in contemporary practice.

The event brought together some of Bhopal’s most respected and forward-thinking minds in architecture and interior design. Key attendees from the Sirca team included Joint Managing Director Mr. Apoorv Agarwal and Associate Director Mr. Chirag Goel. Notable guests from the design community included Ar. Ashish Bhattacharya (Designing Cell), Ar. Akshay Selukar (H & A Consultants), Ar. S.M. Hussain (Shelter), Ar. Ritesh Hirwani (Design Unit), Ar. Ayush Jain (Asthetix Interiors), along with leading interior designers such as ID. Piyush Tilwani (Kalavihaan), ID. Priyanka Mishra (Eclectic Design), ID. Kunal Janyani (KJ Design), ID. Juhi Kalyani (Ashiyana Interior Studio), ID. Simmi Juneja (SJN Designs), and ID. Kennii Oberoi (Kennii Oberoi & Associates).

Known for its premium Italian wood coatings and sophisticated ornamental finishes, Sirca has consistently stood for precision, durability, and aesthetic excellence. The Bhopal meet much like its recent edition in Gwalior reflected the brand’s ethos of becoming more than just a product supplier. It positioned Sirca as a collaborator in the creative process, a partner that understands and responds to the real-time challenges and aspirations of the design community.

Set against the refined backdrop of The Taj Hotel, the evening unfolded as an immersive networking experience marked by authentic conversations, shared ideas, and a deep appreciation for craft. Far from a conventional product showcase, it was a celebration of meaningful relationships: a space where Sirca’s signature wood coatings and OIKOS wall textures connected directly with the creative minds shaping the built environment.

Designed to foster purposeful connections, the gathering brought together a carefully selected group of architects and interior designers from Bhopal and nearby regions. Instead of showcasing a lineup of finishes, the focus was on opening a dialogue rooted in curiosity, collaboration, and a shared passion for design excellence.

Attendees interacted with real-time samples, feeling the textures, examining the finishes, and immersing themselves in the nuances of craftsmanship that Sirca is known for. The showcase of OIKOS wall textures and Sirca’s wood finishes served as a catalyst for deeper conversations on how these materials could contribute to more expressive, enduring design outcomes.

The event not only highlighted Sirca’s evolving portfolio of finishes but also underscored its role as more than a materials provider as a creative ally and an engaged participant in the broader design conversation. For Sirca, the evening was less about showcasing products and more about listening about understanding how the language of space is shifting, and how materiality can support that evolution.

As the evening drew to a close, what remained wasn’t just the impression of rich textures and polished surfaces, but the resonance of meaningful exchange, the spark of new ideas, the beginning of shared aspirations. With gatherings like these, Sirca continues to invest in the relationships and insights that will shape its journey forward.

New Delhi [India], August 12: In the vibrant lanes of Delhi’s heart, Chandni Chowk market, stands GemAstro, a gemstone merchant that has earned the trust of countless clients since its founding in 1972. This family-owned business has transformed from a humble shop into one of the most respectable gemstone dealers in the Delhi NCR region, building a reputation based on authenticity, quality, and customer satisfaction over more than fifty years of operation.

The Foundation of Trust

The journey of GemAstro started as a small establishment concentrated on delivering one of the best certified natural gemstones to customers. Through decades of dedicated service, the company has expanded its spread, especially while preserving its core values of integrity and expertise. Today, GemAstro operates both physical stores and online platforms, serving customers not only across India but also internationally.

What truly sets GemAstro apart from its competitors is its seamless integration of traditional knowledge with modern business practices. The company has embraced digital transformation by offering online consultations and maintaining transparent pricing structures, all while preserving the authenticity and craftsmanship that make each gemstone truly valuable. This unique approach ensures that customers can trust the authenticity of every purchase.

Commitment to Authenticity

The gemstone industry is rife with imitation products and misleading marketing claims. GemAstro tackles these challenges head-on by maintaining strict quality standards and certification processes. Every single gemstone sold by the company undergoes comprehensive testing and certification through government-approved gemological laboratories, ensuring the highest level of authenticity for our customers.

Customers receive detailed documentation for their purchases, including gem laboratory certificates, video verifications, and complete transparency regarding the gemstone’s origin and any treatments it may have received. This level of honesty is very uncommon in the gemstone industry and shows GemAstro’s devotion to honest business practices.

The company’s commitment extends to its online customers as well, ensuring that what buyers see in digital catalogs precisely matches what they receive. Whether purchasing a South Sea Pearl admired for its elegance and lustre or a vibrant Emerald valued for its rich green hue and timeless appeal, customers can trust they are receiving ethically sourced, naturally formed gemstones that meet the highest standards of quality.

Core Business Advantages

1. Certified Natural Gemstones

GemAstro’s primary resilience lies in its firm commitment to selling only genuine, natural gemstones. Each gem undergoes strict testing and receives certification from trusted government laboratories, providing customers with documented proof of authenticity. The company refuses to trade in synthetic or artificially treated stones, making it a reliable choice for those seeking gemstones for personal use, wellness preferences, or investment opportunities.

2. Consistent Cross-Platform Experience

Many gemstone dealers maintain different pricing structures and quality standards between their online and physical stores. GemAstro eliminates this inconsistency by ensuring identical pricing, quality, product information, and customer service across all sales channels. Whether customers visit the Chandni Chowk location in person or browse the website from another city, they experience the same level of service and pricing transparency.

3. Empowering Inventory Management

At GemAstro, we believe in offering our customers a comprehensive range of options. Instead of operating on a sourcing model that requires customers to wait for specific gemstones to be located, we maintain an extensive in-house inventory. This approach allows you to select from various shapes, sizes, and weights, all readily available for inspection and purchase. The ready availability of multiple options accelerates the buying process and allows you to make knowledgeable conclusions by comparing multiple gemstones, empowering you with a wide range of choices.

4. Custom Design and Manufacturing

Recognizing that setting a gemstone can significantly impact both its aesthetic charm and its overall appeal, GemAstro operates a complete, in-house jewelry workshop. Their team of skilled artisans and designers creates custom rings, pendants, and bracelets that showcase the gemstone beautifully and enhance its overall design and appeal.

The design team works with different metals and styles, from simple silver settings to exaggerated gold and diamond-enhanced pieces. Each creation is crafted with attention to both visual appeal and cultural and artisanal significance, resulting in jewelry that serves both aesthetics and meaningful personal significance.

5. Uncompromising Quality Assurance

Before any gemstone reaches a customer, it must pass through GemAstro’s comprehensive three-stage quality verification procedure:

First Stage: Visual and physical examination conducted by professional gemstone experts.

Second Stage: Verification of lab certification from government-approved testing facilities.

Third Stage: Design and quality assessment to confirm the gemstone’s suitability for the customer’s needs.

This multi-layered process ensures that customers receive gemstones that meet the highest standards for physical quality and craftsmanship.

Modern Innovation with Traditional Values

GemAstro has successfully adapted to the digital age while preserving its traditional approach to customer service. Their website features high-definition images of certified gemstones along with complete laboratory reports, making online shopping transparent and dependable. The online platform also provides a user-friendly interface, secure payment options, and a responsive customer support team, ensuring a seamless and satisfying shopping experience.

Customers can schedule video conferences, share design preferences, and receive customized gemstone recommendations about which stones best suit their style, preferences, and intended purpose. This service is available from anywhere in the world, extending GemAstro’s expertise beyond geographical boundaries.

By combining strong online capabilities with their established physical presence, GemAstro serves customers from major Indian cities like Delhi, Mumbai, and Bangalore, as well as international locations including Dubai and London. This global reach is achieved without compromising the quality or authenticity that defines the brand.

New Delhi [India], August 12: India stands at a crossroads as chronic diseases–especially diabetes–reach epidemic levels, impacting millions of families across the nation. With over 77 million diabetics today and a projected rise to 134 million by 2045, the healthcare system faces unprecedented strain. Amid this health crisis, Matsyaveda, an Ayurvedic brand with roots stretching back to 1890, is lighting a new path in holistic wellness.

Amidst the several health-related challenges driven by modern lifestyle and environmental factors, Matsyaveda brings renewed faith in Ayurveda–a system that for centuries has offered holistic, root-cause wellness. Matsyaveda’s products are not just ancient recipes repackaged; they are herbal formulations developed to support overall health and holistic management of chronic health challenges.

Product blends are built on centuries-old recipes. These formulations utilize potent botanicals like bitter gourd (karela), Giloy and Ashwagandha–ingredients traditionally known to support healthy metabolism, blood sugar, and immune function. The proprietary blending and traditional processing methods at Matsyaveda ensure that the natural efficacy of each ingredient is preserved.

Traditional Processing, Maximum Potency: Why Matsyaveda Works

What distinguishes Matsyaveda is its commitment to quality and efficacy at every step. All herbs are sourced from pristine regions, sun-dried, and processed using “Bhavana”–the traditional wet grinding and levigation method described in classic Ayurvedic texts. Unlike many commercial brands, Matsyaveda does not use artificial fillers, preservatives, or aggressive heat-treatments that can degrade medicinal value.

Every product is manufactured in a US-FDA registered facility, which is GMP, ISO, and FSSAI-compliant. All products are rigorously lab-tested for quality, safety, purity and potency. Customers can trust that what’s on the label is what’s in the bottle–a transformative standard in an industry where trust has often been lacking.

Results Backed by Experience: Powerful Testimonials and Growing Medical Endorsements

Matsyaveda’s approach has won the appreciation of both patients and practitioners. “We are receiving increasing interest from healthcare professionals and customers in our holistic wellness products,” shares Shashank Garg, Matsyaveda’s co-founder. Repeat order rates are above 60% and international demand is surging–testament to the brand’s effectiveness and the universal appeal of natural care.

Profitable, Bootstrapped, and Purpose-Driven

Matsyaveda’s remarkable journey has been achieved without outside investment. The company remains fully bootstrapped and has been EBITDA positive every year since the brand was launched. This independence lets Matsyaveda stay true to its mission: focusing on quality over quantity and patient results over aggressive expansion. Revenue growth has outpaced many industry benchmarks, fueled by word-of-mouth endorsements and genuine customer trust.

Founder’s Vision: A Call for a Healthier India

The brand’s vision is deeply personal. Shashank Garg, former Silicon Valley Software Engineer and now Matsyaveda’s co-founder, experienced first-hand the power of Ayurveda after significantly improving his own chronic asthma symptoms through traditional Ayurvedic herbs and practices. “My journey showed me that disease management is possible when you honor the body’s natural systems,” says Shashank. “Our dream goes beyond products; it’s about creating a movement–a diabetes-mukt Bharat (diabetes-free India) where people trust nature’s pharmacy and reclaim holistic wellness.”

What’s Next: From India to the World

As Matsyaveda’s chronic disease management offerings find fans from Delhi to Dubai and New York, the brand is determined to keep innovating and growing on the foundation of efficacy and ethical practices. With a legacy of over 130 years, a blend of traditional wisdom and modern discipline, and a mission-backed team, Matsyaveda is poised to become the next household name in Ayurveda. The brand’s wellness products can be found on their official website, along with major e-commerce platforms like Amazon, Flipkart, Tata 1mg, and Meesho.

About Matsyaveda:

Started in 1890, Matsyaveda is a trusted Ayurvedic brand from New Delhi, blending traditional wisdom with modern standards. Known for authentic, traditionally manufactured herbal formulations, Matsyaveda provides holistic support for metabolic and lifestyle health, with products that are developed for wellness and maintenance in alignment with Ayurvedic principles. The company uses pure natural herbs, traditional sun-drying, and Bhavana processes in US-FDA registered, and FSSAI, GMP and ISO-certified facilities. Committed to quality, ethics, and sustainability, Matsyaveda serves customers across India and the world.

New Delhi [India], August 12: Many businesses in India know the frustration- cash sits idle in the bank between payrolls, tax payment or vendor bills. That’s short-term funds just waiting for something better. KOFFi- a Pune based fintech startup, founded in 2023, aimed precisely at this challenge.

When Prajwal Manalwar returned to India after two decades of fintech experience in Silicon Valley, he noticed a surprising gap. While large corporations smartly manage their short-term funds, most Indian SMBs leave this cash idle in current accounts, earning almost nothing. Prajwal saw an opportunity to bring institutional-grade fund parking solutions to Indian businesses in a simple and accessible way.

KOFFi, a SEBI-registered platform, enables businesses to park their idle funds directly with partner Tata AMC through a secure BSE network. The platform offers curated, highly safe fixed-income mutual funds that primarily invest in short-term government and high-quality

corporate securities. Even when parked for just a few days, businesses can earn 7-8% p.a., with next-business-day (T+1) liquidity ensuring quick access to their funds whenever needed. (Check their Returns Calculator)

“Your business funds should work for you; not for your bank. That is exactly why I created KOFFi,” emphasizes Prajwal Manalwar, Founder & CEO.

Decade-long product leadership at PayPal helped Prajwal build a platform closely aligned with business fund parking needs. KOFFi’s AI-driven fund recommendations, continuous fund monitoring, and smart fund-swapping features to optimize returns based on market conditions. Its goal-based fund parking enables businesses to align savings for upcoming business objectives. Withdrawals can be scheduled in advance to match payroll or vendor payment dates, and multiple team members can access the platform, making it easy for finance teams to collaborate and manage funds seamlessly.

“There’s over ₹25 lakh crore parked in current accounts or low-yielding FDs. I’m a bit surprised to see that businesses in India are still stuck with traditional banking options. This is the space where KOFFi sees enormous potential to create impact.” Prajwal adds.

KOFFi already serves several well-known businesses across India. And one Pune-based IT company parks ₹50 lakh of payroll funds for three weeks each month, earning around ₹6 lakh a year effortlessly.

In the months ahead, KOFFi is looking to deepen its integrations with banking and payroll platforms, making fund disbursements and withdrawals even smoother. The company is also building advanced analytics to help CFOs better predict idle cash flows and maximise returns with greater accuracy.

New Delhi [India], August 12: Market Maestroo Private Limited has achieved a groundbreaking milestone by becoming amongst the first finfluencer-led companies to secure registration as a SEBI Registered Research Analyst (RA), the company announced on Tuesday.

The Securities and Exchange Board of India (Sebi) has granted the coveted registration to Market Maestroo, positioning the firm at the forefront of a new era in India’s financial advisory landscape.

Market Maestroo specializes in value investing research and identifying stocks trading below their intrinsic value, bringing institutional-grade analysis to retail investors.

Aggressive expansion roadmap

The company has outlined an ambitious growth strategy, aiming to become India’s biggest research analyst firm by 2027. As part of this vision, Market Maestroo plans to significantly expand its team by onboarding multiple research analysts across the country.

“Our objective is clear – to build the largest and most trusted research analyst platform in India by 2027,” said company director Ankit Yadav. “We will be aggressively recruiting qualified research analysts to join our mission. The current shortage of registered professionals in the country presents a massive opportunity for us to scale and serve millions of underserved investors.”

Addressing systemic challenges

Market Maestroo’s leadership emphasized the critical need for registered financial guidance in India. With approximately 150 crore people requiring financial advice and only 2,000-3,000 registered advisors available, the company sees tremendous scope for growth and impact.

Director Kritika Yadav highlighted the broader implications of their achievement: “Being amongst the first finfluencers to receive SEBI RA registration is not just our success – it’s a catalyst for the entire industry. We hope this encourages other financial content creators to pursue proper registration and compliance. Our vision extends beyond just our company; we want to transform how financial advice is delivered in India.”

Market Maestroo’s strategic vision

The firm’s approach centers on democratizing access to quality research while maintaining the highest standards of compliance and accuracy. The company plans to leverage technology and a distributed team of research analysts to reach investors across tier-2 and tier-3 cities.

“By 2027, we envision Market Maestroo as the go-to platform for retail investors seeking reliable, research-backed investment guidance,” added Ankit Yadav. “Our model of combining traditional research excellence with modern distribution will set new industry standards.”

Launch timeline and services

Market Maestroo is set to launch its comprehensive research services by Diwali 2025, with its official website expected to go live shortly. The platform will focus on value investing strategies and provide detailed analysis on undervalued securities.

Industry transformation

The company’s registration marks a significant shift in India’s financial advisory ecosystem, where traditional boundaries between content creation and formal financial services are evolving. Market Maestroo’s success could pave the way for other finfluencers to pursue similar regulatory compliance.

The firm’s registration comes at a time when SEBI is actively encouraging more professionals to join the registered research analyst framework to improve the quality of financial advice available to retail investors.
