Come Valentine’s Day and people (read men) are in a tearing hurry to buy the most offbeat and perfect gifts for their loved ones at the very last moment. But most of us fail to think out of the box and the outcome is a pile of all-too-predictable <keyword id="464407" type="UNKNOWN" weightage="100" keywordseo="gift-items">gift items</keyword> that tend to infest our homes on each and every occasion – be it Valentine’s Day or Christmas, Holi or Diwali. If you want to find the most suitable gifts without the least hassle, try <keyword id="2059416" type="UNKNOWN" weightage="100" keywordseo="Wishpicker">Wishpicker</keyword>, a 9-month-old, Noida-based start-up that curates and aggregates gift items &amp; gift ideas from reputed merchants and helps you find the most relevant gifts as per your choice/preference – so that you won’t have to hunt for another shop – online or offline. But unlike other gift sites, this one does not sell gifts. Once you find something suitable and decide to buy it, you will be redirected to the merchant site for making the purchase. 
 Wishpicker uses an <keyword id="2059433" type="UNKNOWN" weightage="100" keywordseo="Automated-machine-learning-system">automated machine learning system</keyword> for its <keyword id="2059417" type="UNKNOWN" weightage="100" keywordseo="Gift-recommendation-engine">gift recommendation engine</keyword> – so that it can identify usage patterns and come up with most <keyword id="2059425" type="UNKNOWN" weightage="100" keywordseo="Relevant-gift-ideas">relevant gift ideas</keyword> based on age, relationship, occasion and other parameters. As a result, the start-up is able to maintain a conversion rate that is much higher than plain vanilla e-commerce stores. And the gift suggestions can be really exotic at times – right from buying a piece of land on the moon to getting your sweetheart’s face printed on a flower petal. Want to know more about Wishpicker and its offerings? Here is a snapshot that captures the start-up’s vision and viability. 
 
Who runs Wishpicker (www.wishpicker.com): A team of nine young enthusiasts led by co-founders Prateek Rathore and Apurv Bansal. While Prateek is a <keyword id="163598" type="POSITION" weightage="80" keywordseo="computer-engineer">computer engineer</keyword> from IIT Delhi, Apurv is a <keyword id="6405797" type="POSITION" weightage="80" keywordseo="civil-engineer">civil engineer</keyword> from the same institution and was Prateek’s batchmate. Prateek also holds a post-graduate degree in Management from the <keyword id="2059415" type="ORGANIZATION" weightage="80" keywordseo="IE-Business-School-in-Spain">IE Business School in Spain</keyword>. The duo later roped in Tejendra Singh, a B.Tech in Computer Science from IIT Patna, as a core technology member. 
 Earlier, Apurv had worked as a consultant but finally left his high-paying corporate job at <keyword id="122749" type="COMPANY" weightage="80" keywordseo="Bain-Company">Bain &amp; Company</keyword> in Mumbai to start Wishpicker when Prateek returned to India after finishing his management studies. The duo started working on the concept in early 2013 and Wishpicker.com went live in June last year. “Initially, we were operating from the terrace of Prateek’s parents’ flat in Delhi. But we shifted to Noida when the team grew,” recalls Apurv. 
 
What inspired the venture: Personal misadventures. Both Apurv and Prateek faced great difficulties when it came to finding the right kind of gifts for friends and families. “We were at a loss about what to buy and searching for gifts online simply stumped us. We were overwhelmed by the number of options available across the sites. Also, each site claimed it was selling the ‘best gift’ but that personal touch was somewhat missing,” reflects Apurv. “That’s when we realised that a lot of people face the same problem and we should do something about it. Wishpicker is here so that buying gifts turns out to be a happy experience instead of a harrowing one,” he adds. 
 
What’s the pitch: The name reveals the business pitch, according to the co-founders. As the site is helping people ‘pick’ the right gifts for their loved ones (that’s what you wish, don’t you?), Wishpicker is just the right name for it. And the ‘intelligent’ gift recommendation engine offers a never-before curated experience of gift-buying, helping you become a better gift giver who is both thoughtful and creative. “At Wishpicker, you will find a <keyword id="2059442" type="UNKNOWN" weightage="100" keywordseo="Readymade-gifting-inventory">readymade gifting inventory</keyword> from across the Internet and you can customise your search for best-ever recommendations. That’s our USP for driving business,” explains Apurv. 
 
How it works: What we like about this site is the all-too-simple user interface in spite of a complex backend. For one, you need not register or log in and can start gift hunting right away, from a wide range of gift items, <keyword id="858869" type="UNKNOWN" weightage="100" keywordseo="gift-vouchers">gift vouchers</keyword>, <keyword id="2059445" type="UNKNOWN" weightage="100" keywordseo="Experiential-gifts">experiential gifts</keyword>, etc., provided by some of the best companies and brands. Gifts can be broadly searched based on age, occasion and recipient’s relationship with the giver. You can further fine-tune the search by setting up various other parameters such as personality, budget, type of gift, product category and so on. Gift recommendations are also made based on the likes and interests of the recipient on Facebook. This is a real-life reflection of his/her personality and helps you select gifts that the recipient will actually ‘like’ and cherish. Wishpicker has already tied up with 20 or so merchants/e-commerce partners, including <keyword id="6354742" type="COMPANY" weightage="100" keywordseo="Flipkart">Flipkart</keyword>, <keyword id="2059448" type="UNKNOWN" weightage="100" keywordseo="HappilyUnmarried">HappilyUnmarried</keyword> and <keyword id="640104" type="UNKNOWN" weightage="100" keywordseo="Ferns-n-Petals">Ferns N Petals</keyword>, among others. It is now planning to increase the number of tie-ups. 
 
As gifts are curated from some of the best brands, users can access the very best that is available across the Web. What’s more, you get all at one place, essentially making Wishpicker a one-stop shop for the best gift ideas. The recommendation engine, based on automated machine learning, has been internally developed by the Wishpicker team and is constantly worked upon to ensure a never-before user experience. 
 
Claim to fame: Stickiness, traction and conversion. Wishpicker wishes to be a Google for gifts and seems to be making decent progress in these three key areas, as per the numbers divulged by the company. 
 
Show me the money: <keyword id="6399165" type="UNKNOWN" weightage="100" keywordseo="revenue-generation">Revenue generation</keyword> happens through commission per sale. According to the co-founders, the site sees more than 150,000 unique visitors per month and it is growing at 80% month on month. The annual <keyword id="2059458" type="UNKNOWN" weightage="100" keywordseo="GMV-run-rate">GMV run rate</keyword> is now Rs 1.5 crore and this is expected to double in the next 2-3 months, given the current growth rate. 
 Wishpicker is self-funded till date but will be raising its first round of <keyword id="6364511" type="UNKNOWN" weightage="100" keywordseo="angel-funding">angel funding</keyword> by the second quarter of CY2014. “We put together a <keyword id="572926" type="COMPANY" weightage="100" keywordseo="seed-capital">seed capital</keyword> of Rs 15 lakh and we are now looking to raise under a million dollar for the next round of development,” says Apurv. The money raised will be mostly used for enhancing the technology platform and venturing further into the global market. 
 “The problem we are trying to solve – deciding what to gift and how to find it easily – is globally relevant. Moreover, we have an extremely scalable model as our platform is totally Cloud-based. So we are planning to go global in a big way soon after cracking the <keyword id="47445" type="UNKNOWN" weightage="100" keywordseo="Indian-market">Indian market</keyword>,” details Apurv. Even now, Wishpicker has a significant presence in the US, the UK and the Middle East as people from these countries send gifts to India. But in the next phase of global expansion in the third quarter of this calendar year, the UK market will be the primary focus of the start-up. 
 
Biggest challenge: There are loads of gifting sites in India but most of them work like normal e-commerce sites, instead of aggregating and curating gift information, powered by an intelligent recommendation engine. “For gifting sites, the <keyword id="5189" type="ORGANIZATION" weightage="100" keywordseo="competition">competition</keyword> evolves around stickiness – it is essential to ensure that one finds the right gift for the right occasion and comes back often. But a site with a limited inventory cannot assure that and that’s where we are ahead,” affirms Apurv. 
 
He, however, thinks the biggest challenge is to build the right team. “Without a great team, your business is bound to fail. When running a start-up, you will never be short of work, and will constantly feel the need for more people. But the key is not to hire in a hurry and make sure that the candidate is not only talented and hardworking, but also gels well with the culture of the company. Because a wrong hire will push you two steps behind,” he reflects. 
 
Tips for budding entrepreneurs: There is no perfect time to start your own business. If you believe that you are solving a problem that’s affecting a large number of people and have the confidence that you can execute it with perfection, you should just go for it. Age, capital and experience are more of psychological constraints. Once you begin, everything else will fall in place.

<ul><li><keyword id="1558972" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="vim" source="Orion">Vim</keyword>'s campaign speaks to the mindset that when a man does the dishes, he's 'helping' the woman of the house.</li><li>It is conceptualised by Lowe Lintas. </li></ul>Indian women are successfully thriving in numerous fields. They have big dreams and take pride in expressing themselves – as homemakers, as mothers, as artists or as CEOs! Caregiving and household chores are only a part of and not their only responsibilities. But societal limitations of defining them only through chores obstruct them. VIM’s latest ad campaign - ‘Nazariya Badlo, Dekho Bartano Se Aage’ is a nudge to society to see women beyond archaic roles. The TVC is a story of a prospective matrimonial arrangement, where the ‘independent guy’ under the implicit assumption that it is the wife’s job to cook and clean, tries to impress the girl by offering to ‘help’ her with cooking. The girl immediately offers to ‘help’ him with dishes, gently nudging him to be independent in household chores as well, as she could get late from work. The boy’s initial shock and eventual change of perspective drives home the campaign message of ‘Nazariya Badlo, Dekho Bartano Se Aage’. The girl in the ad is not only ‘more than her chores’ but also a change-maker who calls for equal partnership. <div type="Youtube" id="cWIo7lTfdqs" title="Vim Liquid | Making dishwashing easy (Hindi)" thumbUrl="https://i.ytimg.com/vi/cWIo7lTfdqs/mqdefault.jpg"></div> Commenting on the launch of the campaign, <keyword id="7230683" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="prabha-narasimhan" source="Orion">Prabha Narasimhan</keyword>, Executive Director &amp; VP – Home Care, South Asia said, “Vim is the market leader in Dishwash by far and has helped make the dishwashing process easier and hassle-free over the ages. We are inspired by the successful women around us who excel in whatever they do, being homemakers and decision-makers. They are already way more than chores, but sometimes get limited by society’s definition of chores being a woman’s primary responsibility. If we offload them from these societal stereotypes and the stress caused by them, there is so much more they can and will be. At Vim, that is precisely going to be our endeavour with ‘Nazariya Badlo, Dekho Bartano Se Aage’. Speaking about the same, <keyword id="3433640" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="prateek-bhardwaj" source="Orion">Prateek Bhardwaj</keyword>, Chief Creative Officer – Lowe Lintas said, “This campaign speaks to the mindset that when a man does the dishes, he's 'helping' the woman of the house. An act for which society applauds him, when in fact it’s something that he should be doing as a member of the household. Nudging the society to realize this double standard that exists was at the heart of this campaign."

It alleges some of the nickel shipments arranged with the Indian businessman didn't actually contain any of the pricey metal, in what it has described as a systematic fraud.Court documents <a href="https://www.ft.com/content/57396c6f-a14b-4547-a29c-998695ecbb54" target="_blank" rel="noopener">reviewed by the FT</a> detail the apparently chaotic events over a 10-day period in November when Trafigura uncovered the alleged multimillion-dollar fraud by Gupta.Trafigura's head nickel trader, Sokratis Oikonomou, arranged for a physical inspection of the cargoes shipped by Gupta's firms on November 9, the report said. The check came after a request by lender Citi, which had supplied an $850 million line of credit to Trafigura for its transactions.Just two days before the inspection was due, Gupta sent a WhatsApp message to Oikonomou saying he had had a heart attack, per the FT. The businessman then allegedly attempted to bargain with the nickel trader in a bid to delay the inspection in Rotterdam.Oikonomou, though, pressed ahead with the inspection. Trafigura has said none of the Rotterdam containers had the the nickel previously agreed in orders, but contained carbon steel instead.A full container of nickel, typically traded in large volumes, can be worth roughly $500,000. Carbon steel tends to be priced at about 5% of the value of the costlier metal.Trafigura believes about 1,100 shipping containers were involved in its trades with Gupta, but it can't say for sure what exactly is inside them, the FT report said. By early February, it had checked 156 of the total, and none so far contains nickel — just carbon steel, or other kinds of steel or iron.In negotiations after Trafigura's discoveries, Gupta is alleged to have tried other means of stalling. He offered a wind farm and steel mill to Trafigura as collateral, and put forward a $200 million repayment plan on a handwritten note to Oikonomou in a meeting at Heathrow Airport.Gupta was hit with a $625 million freezing order by a London court after Trafigura filed its fraud lawsuit. He told Reuters <a href="https://www.reuters.com/article/trafigura-fraud-gupta/indian-businessman-gupta-to-challenge-freezing-order-in-trafigura-fraud-case-idINL8N3542U8" target="_blank" rel="noopener">he intended to challenge</a> the order.Gupta didn't immediately respond to Insider's request for comment sent through TMT Metals' email address.

"You had your time, you had the power, you've yet to have, your finest hour, <keyword id="12905" type="General" weightage="100" keywordseo="radio" source="Orion">radio</keyword>..." Thirty-nine years after Queen's cult song "Radio Ga Ga" rocked the airwaves, listeners agreed the best may still be around the corner for that much-loved and evolving with the times 'audio device'. Quite simply, the radio. It was sometime in the 1960s. Nemichand Barola was about 10. And remembers vividly tunes from Radio Ceylon playing from a radio in a paan shop in his hometown Ajmer adding to lazy afternoon vibes. Some six decades later, Barola, now a retired school principal, still prefers radio over television and turns to it for that odd melody from his younger days and also for the essential news broadcast from an All India Radio channel. "Radio doesn't disturb me when I am writing or doing any work, it is not possible with TV or mobile phones. I don't have to stop my work to listen to the radio," Barola told PTI. It's his connection from his yesterday to his present, the great societal leveller that binds cities to villages, rich to poor. Once a lifeline to keep in touch with music trends, cricket matches, and the news in distant corners of the country and still a mainstay for many. On World Radio Day on Monday, it is the simplicity, reach and accessibility of the medium that still connects the likes of Barola to the old-worldly charm of the radio in an age of innumerable news channels and music streaming services, say experts. "Radio is a very convenient and easy medium that can be accessed by anyone anywhere. You don't require internet connection, you don't require electricity to operate it. And you don't need to sit in front of it to listen," said <keyword id="5885814" type="General" weightage="50" keywordseo="jainendra-singh" source="Orion">Jainendra Singh</keyword>, retired broadcaster and additional director at All India Radio. The days of transistor sets are long over but the means of listening to the radio have increased with smartphones, audio platforms that customise playlists, FM radio in cars and devices such as Sony's music streaming 'box' Caravan'. In rural areas and economically marginalised sections, a large number of people rely on basic mobile phones that come with an in-built radio feature: a real gamechanger, according to Arti <keyword id="6001550" type="General" weightage="50" keywordseo="jaiman" source="Orion">Jaiman</keyword> of community radio station Gurgaon <keyword id="5314325" type="General" weightage="50" keywordseo="ki-awaaz" source="Orion">Ki Awaaz</keyword>. "During the lockdown, when people were short on money to recharge their phones for the internet, they turned to their basic phones and listened to educational programmes free of charge on the radio," she said. While Barola's love for the radio comes from an era when the visual medium hadn't reached the masses, 25-year-old media professional Falak Afshan from Hyderabad says radio was her first love because of its refined mix of chaste Hindi and Urdu. "I started with All India Radio to improve my Hindi and Urdu, which eventually became second nature. Also, my father loved to listen to music on the radio, so be it Mehdi Hasan's ghazals or Usha Uthup's songs, something would always be playing," Afshan said. Listeners from two different eras, Barola and Afshan are but few of an increasing number of Indians who are connected by the undeniable charm of the radio. The enduring attraction of the radio is evident from the latest Economic Survey which noted that FM radio has flourished in the last few years. According to it, the number of private FM radio stations has increased from 243 in the quarter ending December 2015 to 388 in the quarter ending June 2022. FM radio, generally associated with entertainment programmes, also catered to the migrant population of urban areas through community radio stations. Jaiman noted that it creates a "media space" for local villagers, migrant workers and their families to talk about their issues and find a cultural connection in a city that was urbanised at a breakneck speed. "The way this city has urbanised over the last 30 years, there is no space for local culture or for languages. A lot of people say there is no culture, not realising the culture got built over, and got surrounded by tall buildings. Our effort was to create that bridge, where you can turn on the radio and listen to songs in Bhojpuri, Garhwali, Maithili and Haryanvi," Jaiman said. Since its inception in 2009, Gurgaon Ki Awaaz has grown to over five lakh unique listeners and more than 50,000 who listen to the online radio programmes. "These people are not just from India but all over the world. So that is a big shift that has happened," she added. It is also the ability to connect with the broadcasters at a personal level that has given radio an edge over its more modern and visual counterparts. Apart from the simple pleasures of listening to music all day long sitting in his balcony in Delhi's Burari, Vinod Gautam, a retired government employee, finds joy in connecting with presenters and takes pride when relatives call up to tell him they heard his name. "I have talked to so many presenters of Vividh Bharati and FM Gold over the years, I still do. I once even complained to a presenter that they don't take calls from regulars, the slack was readily rectified," the 64-year-old said. He added that the low hum of even a quiet radio channel soothes him. Television, on the other hand, has increasingly become a "source of stupid nonsense", he said. To be able to connect with their listeners at a rather personal level is a gift of the radio, according to RJ <keyword id="248191" type="General" weightage="50" keywordseo="prateek" source="Orion">Prateek</keyword> of Radio City Lucknow. "We love that people of every age group talk to us like friends. They share their emotions, their feelings with us. We have even discussed global issues with our listeners," Prateek said. With increasing penetration of the Internet, radio presenters like Prateek have also started connecting with their audiences on social media platforms. To get back to "Radio Ga Ga"... for Barola, Afshan and Gautam and countless others, radio is that old friend who should "stick around, 'cause we might miss you, when we grow tired of all this visual".

A video showing the sprawling <keyword id="3513463" type="UNKNOWN" weightage="100" keywordseo="IIT-Kharagpur-campus">IIT Kharagpur campus</keyword> in a different way - the ‘Games of Thrones style’ - has got netizens raving about it since last week, when it was first posted on YouTube. 
 The perfect animation that lets you take a tour of the beautiful Kharagpur campus has been overlaid with the <keyword id="6433339" type="ENTERTAINMENT" weightage="100" keywordseo="Game-of-Thrones">Game of Thrones</keyword> opening track. 
 This fictional masterpiece is the brainchild of <keyword id="245736" type="PERSON" weightage="100" keywordseo="Prateek-Srivastava">Prateek Srivastava</keyword> - a second year student studying Ocean Engineering and Naval architecture at <keyword id="6364832" type="COMPANY" weightage="100" keywordseo="IIT-Kharagpur">IIT Kharagpur</keyword>. What’s interesting, however, is that this lad has not seen a single episode of the Games of Thrones series yet. 
 
Ask him then, how he managed to replicate the essence of the fantasy drama TV series so well in his video and Srivastava says he came up with the idea because he loves the original GoT track. He adds: “Actually the video is also the outcome of the zeal and love that he and every KGPian has for their campus.” 
 
The video made using free softwares now has over 18,000 views already. 
 
“It took me 12 days to produce the final video, and I used Blender and Adobe Premier Pro for designing and animation,” Srivastava says. 
 
Overwhelmed with the sudden praises this boy has got, he tells us, “I had my vacations. So, I decided implement this idea using my free time. I honestly didn't expect this response, but the reactions in campus are awesome.” 
 
If you haven't got a chance to view his video yet, check it out because it is definitely the most creative thing you will come across today: 
 
 
And you can compare it to the original GoT video if you haven't seen it yet:

Coronavirus: NIIT to not hold classes in Delhi-NCR centres

New Delhi, Jun 20 () The Reserve Bank of India (RBI) has told the Delhi High Court that Google Pay is a third party app provider (TPAP) and does not operate any payment systems. Therefore, its operations are not in violation of the Payment and Settlement System Act of 2007, RBI has told a bench of Chief Justice D N Patel and Justice Prateek Jalan. RBI has also told the court that since Google Pay does not operate any payment system, it does not find a place in the list of authorised payment system operators published by the National Payments Corporation of India (NPCI). The RBI's submissions came in response to a PIL by financial economist Abhijit Mishra who has alleged that Google's mobile payment app, Google Pay or GPay in short, was facilitating financial transactions without the requisite authorisation from RBI. Mishra has claimed that GPay was acting as a payments system provider in violation of the Payments and Settlements Act as it has no valid authorisation from the central bank of the country to carry out such functions. He has also contended that GPay does not figure in NPCI's list of authorised 'payment systems operators' released on March 20, 2019. The bench said the matter requires detailed hearing as it affects other third party apps and listed it on July 22. HMP SKV RDM RDM
