Physical conference on February 5th & 6th in Mumbai

January 03, Mumbai: The Unified Payment Interface (UPI) has changed how India handles money, moving from paper to digital transactions. As more people use digital payments during COVID-19, It has become a game-changer. It allows people to send money at any time, helping to bring more people into the banking system and connecting both those with and without bank accounts.

UPI has made formal financial services accessible to millions and has had a clear impact on India’s digital economy. It makes it easier to pay without cash and encourages more use of digital payments, which reduces reliance on cash and leads to a more productive and transparent economy and also helps businesses become more official, which in turn increases tax revenue and reduces illegal money flows, making governance more effective.

However, there are challenges to address, including concerns about data privacy, regional disparities, and the need to integrate with traditional payment methods like credit cards. Despite these hurdles, the platform continues to grow, largely due to its strong security measures and low costs for users. This positions it to compete effectively with global players like MasterCard and Visa.

The Platform has transformed the digital economy of India by making more seamless transactions and increasing financial inclusion. From 92 crore in FY 2017-18 to 13,116 crore in FY 2023-24, the CAGR of UPI is 129%. By 2028, UPI is going to comprise 90% of total retail digital payment volumes and strengthen the leadership of fintech in India.

Overview of the event:

The 33rd Edition of the Digital Transformation Summit brings together over 500 top executives and technology leaders to discuss game-changing technologies like AI, Robotics, Blockchain, and Quantum Computing. With India’s digital market projected to reach $1 trillion and Gen AI potentially adding $1.5 trillion to the GDP by 2030, this event features hands-on workshops, expert talks, and valuable networking opportunities. Attendees will connect with innovators, share experiences, and meet potential global partners, all focused on making meaningful changes and improving how businesses operate. This summit is a must-attend for professionals looking to enhance their digital transformation efforts.

Who will attend?

● Ninad Raje, Group Chief Information Officer, Jaquar & Company Private Limited.

● Anand Deodhar, Group Chief Information Officer, Force Motors Ltd.

● Tejas Shah, Chief Information Officer, L’Oréal India Pvt. Ltd.

    Following the robust recovery observed in the real estate sector in 2023, the industry, while still contending with challenges like elevated input costs and increasing interest rates, is eagerly awaiting the upcoming budget presentation by Finance Minister Smt. Nirmala Sitharaman. Despite the prevailing optimistic sentiments, it is crucial to acknowledge specific challenges. The lingering threat of the pandemic persists, and a decline in income could potentially affect demand, especially in the price-sensitive affordable segment and real estate development in tier II and III cities.

    Union Budget 2024

    Vidush Arya, Head – Strategy, Orris Infrastructure Pvt. Ltd. said, “We anticipate favorable norms aimed at lowering interest rates and introducing tax rebates, encouraging sustained development and investment. Additionally, we hope for increased budget allocation towards new infrastructural developments. This dual strategic focus aligns with the positive momentum already witnessed, further elevating the quality of life for the home buyers and investors.”

    Amish Bhutani, Managing Director of Group 108 said, “A pressing need exists to stimulate the affordable segment. Incentivizing purchases through measures like income tax rebates is suggested. Commercial realty, aligning with the governments entrepreneurship promotion vision, requires policy-level support. Streamlining interest rates and approval processes, akin to a single-window clearance system, is crucial to meeting the escalating demand in the real estate sector.”

    Ashwinder R Singh, CEO Residential, Bhartiya Urban said, “The real estate scene had a defining moment in 2023, setting the stage for whats expected to be an even more dynamic 2024. With a strong economy and potential adjustments in home loan interest rates, the sector anticipates a surge in demand. To align with the governments vision of housing for everyone, crucial issues need attention. The upcoming budget is crucial, with the top wish being industry status for real estate. Key measures like simplified clearances, tax breaks, and GST adjustments are essential. Theres a call for a thoughtful plan for affordable housing, tapping into untapped potential and unmet demand. As we await the budget, all eyes are on the governments proactive steps, hoping for a roadmap that boosts growth and resilience in the real estate sector.

    Rajjath Goel, Managing Director of MRG Group said, “The much-awaited industry status award would launch the real estate market into a new phase of expansion. Simultaneously, we hope that the government takes action to resolve significant problems such as the unchecked increase in input costs, particularly for basic materials like steel and cement. A streamlined clearance system is a paramount need for enhancing the operational efficiency of the real estate sector. This reform would help us cut through various levels of bureaucracy, ensuring faster project approvals and benefiting developers and prospective homebuyers.”

    Rajesh K Saraf, MD, Axiom Landbase said, “NITI Aayogs forecast of the Indian real estate sector reaching a $1 trillion market size by 2030 highlights its long-term prospects. The sector looks to the government for intervention in reducing input costs, specifically for steel, cement, and fuel. We also request the government to consider reducing the GST rate on cement and initiatives to promote affordable housing through tax incentives.

    Ajendra Singh. Vice President Sales and Marketing, Spectrum Metro, “2023 not only brought the real estate sector into the limelight but also highlighted the role of commercial realty as a growth driver. We have huge expectations from the forthcoming budget. One of the foremost demands is the availability of GST input tax credits for commercial real estate. We would also like the government to consider conferring infrastructure status to the sector, allowing us easier access to credit and lower financing costs. Decreasing the input costs, such as steel and cement, revising depreciation rates for commercial buildings that align with current market realities, and tax incentives for investments in green buildings and sustainable development projects are other expectations from the forthcoming budget.

    According to Ankit Kansal, Managing Director AXON Developer, “2024 will be an eventful year for Indian real estate, as, after a steady run, the market is set for a further jump. Meanwhile, the government and regulatory bodies need to play a more constructive, accommodating, and facilitating role. It needs to take steps, to reduce regulatory roadblocks, fuel market demand, and support the developer fraternity with fiscal and non-fiscal impetus. Meanwhile, GOI also needs to give attention to green and sustainable real estate in India, as its time has come. There have been a few prudent steps in the past in the form of lower tax rates, fast-tracking approvals, and reduced stamp duties to support sustainable realty. However more needs to be done in terms of bigger tax breaks, supporting green financing, and allocating larger funds towards sustainable infrastructure developments.”

    Prateek Mittal, Executive Director of Sushma Group, expressed, “We believe that the forthcoming budget will include income tax benefits for our sector, with high hopes and expectations for the return of the CLSS scheme. Anticipating a stronger real estate market, we foresee fiscal support that recognizes the industrys critical role in economic recovery. Affordable housing remains the focal point for inclusive growth, and we eagerly await government initiatives that promote and incentivize such projects. By addressing diverse housing needs, these initiatives are expected to transform the real estate landscape, contributing significantly to the nations social and economic fabric.

    Tejpreet Singh Managing Director of Gillco Group said, “As real estates contribution to Indias GDP is expected to rise to 13% by 2025, the forthcoming budget is eagerly awaited for sectoral rejuvenation. Key expectations include redefining affordable housing criteria, increasing carpet area limits, and significantly boosting affordable housing.”

    According to Mukul Bansal. Managing Director, Motiaz, 2023 marked a successful year for real estate, showcasing the positive impact of low prices, low interest rates, and abundant supply. In the upcoming budget, initiatives such as raising the deduction limit under section 80C, addressing the industry status demand, and implementing a single window clearance system are crucial for realizing the countrys housing aspirations.

    For centuries, education has been touted as the cornerstone of progress and prosperity. India’s educational landscape is undeniably impressive, boasting a vast network of universities and colleges. However, lurking beneath the surface lies a stark reality: only some have equal access to this wealth of knowledge.

    PGDM Courses with 100% Placement Assistance

    Traditional brick-and-mortar institutions, while offering valuable knowledge, face limitations in accessibility, inclusivity, and affordability. Democratizing education is about shattering these barriers and ensuring that everyone, regardless of background or circumstance, has the chance to learn, evolve, and thrive.

    This is where the revolution of distance learning takes centre stage, and the MIT School of Distance Education shines as a beacon of hope, empowering aspiring learners to unlock their post-graduate dreams.

    The MITSDE Promise – Why Pursuing an Online Post Graduate Diploma is the Key to Success

    With over 15,000 applications received in 2023 alone, MITSDE stands as a testament to its success in democratizing education and empowering individuals through its online PGDM programs. The institute attracts diverse learners eager to unlock their potential. This includes a thriving community of working professionals from leading organizations like TCS, Accenture, Infosys, Capgemini, IBM, and Tech Mahindra.

    MITSDE is equipped to understand the unique needs of this group and enables them to leverage their experience to secure high-paying positions in sought-after industries. Here are some of the key factors that make MITSDE a leader in the ever-evolving field of distance education:

    Dedicated Placement Support: MITSDE has a dedicated placement team that works closely with students to identify their career goals and connect them with top companies. Partnerships with renowned organizations like Hexaware, Wipro, Genpact, Acura Solutions, Niva, Prodesk IT, Rupeek, and GIBots offer students access to a wide range of job opportunities, with some firms offering packages exceeding Rs. 7 lakhs per annum.

    Career Accelerator Programs: MITSDE recognizes the ever-changing demands of the job market and offers a range of short-term Career Accelerator Programs designed for working professionals looking to update their skills and stay ahead of the curve. These programs are highly focused and industry-specific, providing valuable knowledge and hands-on experience in emerging fields such as UI/UX, Digital Marketing, Lean Six Sigma, and more.

    No-Cost EMI Options: MITSDE understands that financial constraints can be a barrier to education. Its flexible “No-Cost EMI” options thus make PGDM programs more accessible to individuals from diverse backgrounds.

    At MITSDE, learning goes beyond academic excellence. The institute offers initiatives like “MIT Labs” for hands-on experience with industry-relevant tools like Oracle Primavera, Jira, and MS Project. Additionally, student counselling and personality development sessions under “MIT Harbour” equip students with essential life skills and confidence. This comprehensive approach ensures that graduates emerge as academically qualified, well-rounded professionals prepared to navigate the modern workplace.

    Online PGDM vs Regular MBA – The Debate Continues

    The push-and-pull between online and traditional education has existed for decades. The question arising for the modern student population, however, is which way to go. The traditional education approach has a well-established and storied history of success. In the past few years, however, online education has been steadily climbing the ranks and emerging as an underdog in this ongoing race.

    Distance learning programs, with their inherent flexibility and accessibility, shine as a beacon of hope in the quest for educational equity. While traditional MBA programs hold their value, online PGDM courses from renowned distance education entities such as MITSDE provide several unique advantages:

    Flexibility: Unlike regular MBA programs with fixed schedules and locations, online PGDM courses offer asynchronous learning, allowing you to study at your own pace and convenience. This is ideal for working professionals and individuals with busy schedules who cannot afford to leave their jobs or relocate.

    Accessibility: Distance PGDM programs break down geographical barriers, making quality education accessible to students from remote areas and smaller towns who may not have access to top-tier institutions nearby.

    Affordability: Online post graduate courses are more affordable than traditional MBA programs, as they eliminate the need for relocation and campus expenses.

    Focus on Industry Relevance: PGDM programs are designed in collaboration with industry experts and focus on skills directly relevant to the job market. This ensures that graduates are equipped with the knowledge and abilities employers are looking for, increasing their employability and career prospects.

    MITSDE’s innovative approach to distance learning is revolutionizing the landscape of post-graduate education in India. By prioritizing inclusivity, affordability, and engagement, it empowers individuals to break down barriers, unlock their potential, and achieve their professional goals.

    From working professionals at top MNCs to individuals from remote areas yearning for higher education, the MIT School of Distance Education offers a unique and transformative journey in its mission to democratize education and empower every learner to reach their full potential.

    About Alwrite

    Alwrite – a startup with experience is a B2B insurtech providing an all-in-one quote procurement and placement, underwriting and user management, along with knowledge and risk management solutions to insurance companies and insurance intermediaries for the commercial lines of insurance.

    Despite constant upgradation of functioning efficiency in the insurance sector, the commercial insurance segment still operates on legacy systems where the internal insuring process is still manual. The quote placement (the step before policy issuance) process is done on excel sheets and emails and it takes an estimated 30 efforts by intermediaries and insurance companies for a single policy for a commercial entity. The entire manual process takes 14-21 days with a lot of scope for error, an uncapped PI risk and is very cost intensive. Alwrite enables insurance companies, brokers, agents, corporate agents and banks to accelerate the quote placement process to provide seamless insuring services and to offer the best insurance options to their corporate clients. Alwrite also eliminates the duplication of work caused by multiple intermediaries quoting to multiple insurance companies for a single risk. Alwrite’s sophisticated algorithms and tenanted architecture assure data security for each user.

    Investors often seek a balance between stability and growth when building their investment portfolios. In the world of mutual funds, one versatile option that encapsulates both these elements is the large and mid cap fund. This unique investment vehicle combines the characteristics of large cap and mid cap stocks within a single fund, offering a diversified approach to wealth-building.

    Large and mid cap funds

    What is a large and mid cap fund
    At its core, a large and mid cap fund is a type of mutual fund that strategically allocates its assets across both large cap and mid cap stocks. Large cap stocks typically represent well-established companies with substantial market capitalization, while mid cap stocks belong to companies that are smaller in size but show potential in terms of growth. The fusion of these two categories aims to provide investors with a well-rounded investment strategy.

    Why should you opt for large and mid cap funds
    Relative stability: One of the key advantages of large and mid cap funds lies in their ability to offer relative stability through large-cap stocks. These stocks, often referred to as blue-chip stocks, belong to companies that have a proven track record of success. These industry leaders tend to weather economic downturns more effectively than smaller companies, providing a solid foundation for the funds overall performance. Including large cap stocks in the fund acts as a stabilizing force, mitigating the impact of market volatility.

    Growth potential: The inclusion of mid cap stocks introduces an element of growth potential. Mid cap companies are smaller, making them well-positioned for expansion and capturing market share. While they may carry a higher level of risk compared to large-cap stocks, the growth prospects they bring to the table can contribute significantly to the funds overall returns. This dynamic blend of relative stability and growth is what sets large and mid cap funds apart as a compelling investment choice.

    Diversification: Diversification is a cornerstone of sound investment strategy, and large and mid cap funds excel in this aspect. By including both large and mid-cap stocks in a single fund, investors benefit from exposure to different market segments. Large-cap stocks provide a cushion of relative stability, while mid-cap stocks add a layer of diversification by tapping into the potential of smaller, faster-growing companies. This balanced diversification helps spread risk and enhances the resilience of the overall investment portfolio.

    Active Management: Actively managed large and mid cap funds bring an additional layer of expertise to the table. Experienced fund managers make investment decisions based on thorough research and analysis, aiming to optimize returns while managing risks. This active management approach can be particularly attractive for investors who prefer a more hands-off investment strategy, relying on the skills of professionals to navigate the dynamic landscape of the stock market.

    Long-term growth: Considering the long-term perspective, large and mid cap funds align well with the goal of wealth accumulation. The combination of relative stability from large-cap stocks and growth potential from mid-cap stocks caters to investors with a horizon that extends beyond short-term market fluctuations. This makes these funds suitable for those who are looking to build wealth steadily over time, leveraging the power of compounding and the diverse opportunities presented by both large and mid-cap stocks.

    Important considerations:
    Its important for investors to be mindful of the specific objectives and risk tolerance associated with large and mid cap funds. While these funds offer a balanced approach, they are not immune to market fluctuations. Investors should carefully assess their financial goals, time horizon, and risk tolerance before incorporating large and mid cap funds into their portfolios.

    In conclusion, a large and mid cap fund stands out as a comprehensive investment solution that encapsulates the benefit of both worlds – relative stability from large-cap stocks and growth potential from mid-cap stocks. Bajaj Finserv AMC is all set to launch its large and mid cap fund on 6th February 2024. By understanding the unique characteristics and advantages of large and mid cap funds, you can make informed decisions that align with your financial objectives.
