While government levies a lot of taxes on dining out or watching your favourite movie at theaters, it also makes sure that the citizens can do so whenever they want. 
 
A new rule, which would allow shopping malls, theatres and eating joints to be open 24x7, has become a reality with the clearance of the Model Shops and Establishments (Regulation of Employment and Conditions of Services) Act 2015. 
 
The move is also aimed at generating employment prospects, and could prove to be a fitting move for offline retailers who are worried over customers’ preference for online shopping that can be done round the clock. 
 
Here are a few things about the rule that you should know: 
 
1. The Act covers all public amusement establishments such as shopping malls, restaurants and local markets, which are not covered under the Factories Act 1948, with the condition that they must have at least 10 or more employees. 
 
2. The Act does not cover government offices (like banks), insurance companies and factories that are covered under the Factories Act 1948. 
 
3. The Act allows women to work 24x7, but they should be facilitated with safe transportation services and other related facilities such as creches if they are working in night shifts. 
 
4. The implementation of this Act will be issued as an advisory to states, and consensus from trade unions will not be needed.

<ul><li>In our last feature from the series where we crystal-gazed into 2022 and brought to you some key trends that will impact the industry, we speak to experts from the Indian <keyword id="6357332" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="gaming" source="Orion">gaming</keyword> industry.</li><li>They share their thoughts of a few big trends that will dominate the industry in 2022.</li></ul>As we enter 2022, we can only look back and wonder at the meteoric rise online gaming has seen in India in the past two years. While gaming had been witnessing growth, albeit a relatively slow one, before the lockdown, it was during the locked-at-home phase that many across the country not only discovered the joys of gaming, but also realised they could make a healthy living out of it. If most reports coming out in the last one year are to be believed, India will see an even faster growth for the industry in the next few years, and now Bharat is joining in this growth. A recent report by <keyword id="7087972" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="mobile-premier-league" source="Orion">Mobile Premier League</keyword> (MPL), an <keyword id="2440542" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="esports" source="Orion">esports</keyword> and skill gaming platform revealed that India’s tier-III cities and towns have witnessed a significant rise in the number of online gamers in 2021. The top 30 of them reported up to 170% more gamers compared to 2020. Some of the small towns have more than 100% to up to 200% growth in online gamers. Another report by Sequoia India and BCG said that while the gaming industry in India is currently smaller than that of the US and China and is 1% of the global gaming market, it is generating $1.5B revenue and is expected to triple to over $5 billion by 2025 on the back of the ‘mobile first’ phenomenon. This massive growth has also led to a new breed of influencers who are being followed by hundreds of thousands of engaged audiences. YouTube’s recently released list of top Indian creators on its platform featured 5 gamers. And things are just about starting to get heated. To understand where this highly dynamic industry is headed in this next year, we reached out to a few prominent voices from the industry and this is what they had to say: Lokesh Suji, Director, Esports Federation of India &amp; Vice President of the Asian Esports Federation (AESF) India was a sleeping giant till Covid-19 happened, and now we have established ourselves as a market that cannot be ignored; Stakeholders like the brands, investors, authorities and so on, were just sitting on the fence and observing. But with a market of at least 450 million online gamers, the potential of video games and esports cannot be ignored. The year 2021, has been the inflection point for video games in India. While esports evolves itself into various business models, Non-fungible token (NFT) will be one big trend to watch out for in 2022. Video Games is the best use case for NFTs, customization of the skins, virtual avatars, in-game items/rewards etc. all this already exists in video games (so-called metaverse) and is now starting to be converted into NFTs. One of the key drivers for the meteoric growth of Video Games has been live streaming and esports, and such content creators and/IP holders will eventually look at converting the best of gameplays/streaks/moments into NFTs, which not only help increase monetization for content creators, video game developers etc. but also be a catalyst in terms of retention of fans and users respectively. Anirudh Pandita, Founder, <keyword id="820765" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="Loco" source="Orion">Loco</keyword> Gaming has now arrived as a truly mainstream entertainment experience and has become the primary source of entertainment for India’s young generation. 2021 saw the rise of esports and game streaming, and 2022 will see this multiply. In 2021, we saw the arrival of BGMI which all Indian fans were waiting for and in 2022, we will see multiple big publishers release games for India. In 2021, we saw esports go to new heights and we will see continued growth in the sector in the next year as prize money as well as number of games will increase. Game streaming saw the entry of hundreds of thousands of new streamers and millions of viewers, and this trend should accelerate in 2022, with individual streams rivaling those of major traditional sports. Lastly, with blockchain providing interesting use cases, we expect to see interesting new use cases come out to help creators and consumers. We, at Loco, have always aimed at paving the way for gaming to go from a niche hobby to a mainstream national interest- which the year 2021 has helped realize. We are confident that with this, India will cement its place on the global gaming map in 2022. Abhishek Aggarwal, Co-Founder &amp; CEO, <keyword id="12415204" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="trinity-gaming" source="Orion">Trinity Gaming</keyword> The gaming industry is progressing, taking complete advantage of the latest developments in technology, software, better internet services, gadgets, cloud technology and more. In the Indian scenario, there is an explosive growth of gamers in this booming industry with creative and engaging content being an important aspect of the system. With more games introduced and with more people joining the pool, more brands are shifting their focus on marketing their brands through these young creators who have an enormous fan following across the age group of 15-30 which is the most targeted audience in advertising terms for both endemic and non-endemic brands. Gaming content has begun to penetrate the Tier II, Tier III locations, and beyond, giving vernacular content creators a chance to grow. With Hindi &amp; Tamil being the two most popular languages in streaming in India, it will surely gain more prominence in the coming time. More people will watch game streaming. Audiences tend to admire their creators and feel more connected to them due to their high level of engagement. The future of gaming beholds a lot and a stronger and classified gaming ecosystem is on the rise. Tarun Gupta, Founder, <keyword id="10820861" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="ultimate-battle" source="Orion">Ultimate Battle</keyword> Games and gaming content are highly engaging and we're seeing a huge spike in average and concurrent viewership for gaming content. The consumers are very dynamic and their attention span size has decreased noticeably in GenZ. We see short gaming video content to witness a never seen before hype in the gaming community. The mobile gaming market is expanding in tier 2 and tier 3 cities and we'll witness a rise in engagement in games, viewership, and content creation. Young gamers will play engaging games, consume fast-paced engaging content, and want to socialize with gamers often simultaneously. This will lead to more virtual world socialization among the young generation and higher consumption of gaming content. As such, 2022 will usher higher inclination by brands into the gaming industry to target the young age group of 18 to 25. With many startups and organizations focusing on gaming and esports, we'll see a spike in Esports events and team IPs being created. This will boost the gaming ecosystem in India and open multiple opportunities in careers for gamers and IT professionals. Roland Landers, CEO, <keyword id="3634002" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="All-India-Gaming-Federation" source="Orion">All India Gaming Federation</keyword> The Indian gaming industry along with the M&amp;E segment has now become one of the fastest growing sectors in India with around 7.3 Bn downloads in recent years. It has emerged as an important avenue due to a multitude of favorable factors such as young and tech-savvy population, affordable availability of feature-packed smartphones, better internet connectivity, and an overall technological development. The move has also accelerated the growth of multi gaming format in the online gaming space. The Indian gaming industry is expected to reach 3 billion by 2025 and is now projected to grow faster than the global online gaming segment. The industry currently employs 40,000 people in direct jobs and by 2024 the online skill gaming industry is expected to employ around 2 lakh people. This growth will further lead to revenue generation for the country, driven by ease of payment, better security and instant withdrawal of winnings etc. As the regulatory landscape is also evolving and positive judgments are expected from many states, we as an industry leader look forward to an exciting year for this sunrise sector. With its exponential growth, the gaming industry will also attract international investors to invest in the Indian market. Sameer Barde, CEO - E Gaming Federation <div type="image" title="IMG-20220110-WA0005" msid="88826278" hostid="261"></div> Online gaming will become increasingly mainstream and find acceptance as a source of entertainment in 2022. This year, we anticipate a growth rate of over 35 % for the sector as a whole. However, for this to happen, we hope to see government stakeholders accepting the need for regulation to protect the player and industry interests. Increasing monetization and adoption of new-age technology including blockchain and NFTs in the gaming ecosystem will be seen. We expect a larger number of players moving from free-to-play to paying-to-play, in-game purchases, and skill gaming. Industry players will develop new and exciting games for users based on traditional games and Indian themes, keeping the PM’s vision in mind. Additionally, e-Sports being a medal sport in the forthcoming Asian Games in September will result in a significant increase both in terms of acceptance and interest. All in all, we at EGF are excited and believe that this will be a bellwether year for the entire industry. Bhavin Pandya, CEO and Co-Founder, <keyword id="8913431" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="Games24x7" source="Orion">Games24x7</keyword> The Indian online skill gaming industry is poised for tremendous growth. With the right support particularly in the form of progressive policy structures, gaming can spur a second software revolution in India. As of today, this industry offers direct employment to almost 50,000 people. It is also a major source of taxation for the exchequer. In addition, the sector has multiplier benefits for several other domains including fintech, banking, semiconductors, animation, and other aspects of Information Technology. The sector has witnessed significant investments from marquee international investors and accounts of several Unicorns. With the right encouragement and support, India can emerge as a global pioneer in gaming technology. Ankur Singh, CEO and Founder, Witzeal We believe that the gaming sector will continue to expand with the high end adoption of AI and data science to understand and provide users experiences they wish for. Future of gaming will likely be based upon newer technologies like Blockchain and its active usage would prove fruitful in the years to come. Another key trend to look forward to is the penetration of gaming in rural areas because the penetration of internet and smartphones is on a gradual rise. Yashash Agarwal, Co-Founder and CEO, <keyword id="3212361" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="Gamezop" source="Orion">Gamezop</keyword> <div type="image" title="RIC_8498" msid="88758667" hostid="261"></div> Blockchain gaming is shaping up to be a very interesting space. We are already seeing very interesting games emerge with blockchain and NFTs at the heart of all the action. Games like Axie Infinity have popularized the Play to Earn mechanic and they have been able to scale engagement as well as monetization to huge numbers. Take it one step further and we see that decentralization is fundamentally changing how companies operate: all the way from raising money, to day-to-day governance. This is most notable in DAOs (Decentralized Autonomous Organisations), which follow a bottom-up, community-driven management style. We are excited to see the blockchain gaming projects that emerge from India! Vaibhav Odhekar, COO &amp; Co-Founder, <keyword id="2734866" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="POKKT" source="Orion">POKKT</keyword> The gaming industry is constantly evolving, and its popularity will continue to rise. In the last three years, the sector has welcomed 500 million new gamers globally. New technological breakthroughs such as virtual reality have provided another dimension towards entertainment in this domain. For many young folks, the industry has also become a viable career option. Talking about the trends- The audience will continue to diversify in the coming years. So, instead of a male/female audience bias, we'll have a nearly 50-50 gender split, with a lot more older people joining the online gaming space. India is expected to create more global content. Although the percentage is extremely low right now, as more high-quality content is created in India, the trend will improve. Also, e-Sports as a category will grow in popularity. In 2022, there will be a significant increase in the number of movies released worldwide. So, the biggest trend we anticipate to see is a lot more games based on movie franchises. Gaming has its own history of adapting films and gamers are enthralled by such games. Video games are a vast medium that covers a wide variety of genres and experiences that can only be experienced in games, along with contributions from a population from all over the world. Even while many modern games are inspired by movies, they are nevertheless unique in their own way and we expect them to expand in the coming years.

Gaming: What to expect from the Indian gaming and e-sports industry in 2022

Nearly 40% of India’s 1.2 billion residents do not have access to reliable electricity and like all other sectors, power has also been on the priority when it comes to announcing big schemes. Prime Minister <keyword id="6354477" type="PERSON" weightage="100" keywordseo="Narendra-Modi">Narendra Modi</keyword> has pledged to eliminate the void that has crippled the sector for the past two years. To achieve the target, the centre has launched the Deendayal Upadhyay Gram Jyoti Yojana (DDUGJY) and approved Rs. 43,033 crores to strengthen sub-transmission and distribution infrastructure in rural areas. But one of the main challenges that the government is facing right now is last mile connectivity. Though 96.7% villages are connected, according to 2011 census only 33% households, that is around 8 of 24 crores, do not have electricity. Modi has announced measures for this too. The centre has got state run enterprises to invest over Rs. 55,000 crores for better grid connectivity. But the whole mission is full of challenges that the government needs to pass in order to ensure <keyword id="3249173" type="UNKNOWN" weightage="100" keywordseo="24x7-power-for-all">24x7 power for all</keyword> by 2019. Experts see 2019 as only a far-fetched dream with the present conditions. 

	Challenges
 

	1. The real test is to connect the grid efficiently between producers and distributors. The current transmission system is insufficient to transfer power from surplus parts of the country to the deficit parts. States are also unable to buy cheaper power.
 

	2. Another fundamental issue is the gap between the cost of delivery and the ability of the customers to pay for that power.
 

	3. To ensure recovery of debt-ridden distributors so that they are able to set tariffs that reflect the true cost of power is another test the government has to pass.
 

	4. India also needs to increase the amount of coal it mines, while also cutting down on theft.

Oppo Find X7 Ultra – the best camera on a smartphone?

Mumbai, Dec 6 () In a bid to promote digital transactions, the RBI on Friday said round-the-clock transactions will be allowed under the National Electronic Funds Transfer (NEFT) system from December 16.
 The 24X7 NEFT system will be available on all days of the year, including holidays, it added.
 NEFT transactions are settled in hourly batches. For weekdays, the batches are from 8 am to 7 pm. On first and third Saturdays, the settlement happens from 8 am to 1 pm.
 In a notification, the central bank said it has been decided that the facility on NEFT system shall be made available from December 16, 2019 on 24X7 basis.
 The first settlement will take place after 00:30 hours on December 16, 2019 (night of December 15, 2019).
 The RBI has asked the member banks to keep adequate liquidity in their current account with the regulator at all times to facilitate successful posting of NEFT batch settlements.
 NEFT transactions after usual banking hours are expected to be automated transactions initiated using 'Straight Through Processing (STP)' modes by the banks.
 The existing discipline for crediting beneficiary's account or returning the transaction (within 2 hours of settlement of the respective batch) to originating bank will continue, it added.
 Besides, member banks will ensure sending of positive confirmation message for all NEFT credits and all provisions of NEFT procedural guidelines will be applicable for 24x7 transactions as well, it added.
 "Member banks are also advised to initiate necessary action and ensure availability of all necessary infrastructural requirements at their end for providing seamless NEFT 24x7 facility to their customers," the regulator said.
 Banks may disseminate information on the extended timings for NEFT to all their customers, RBI said.
 From July 1 this year, RBI had decided not to levy charges on transactions through NEFT and Real Time Gross Settlement (RTGS) system in order to promote digital transactions in the country, and asked banks to pass on the benefits to the customers.
 Earlier, the RBI used to levy minimum charges on banks for transactions routed through RTGS and NEFT. Banks, in turn, levy charges on their customers.
 RTGS is meant for large-value instantaneous fund transfers, while NEFT is used for fund transfers of up to Rs 2 lakh. KPM ABM

NEFT transactions to be available 24x7 from Dec 16

Do you crave for a packet of chips or an ice-cream in the middle of the night and wait till the following day for stores to open? Well, soon you will be able to shop anything you want round-the-clock. 
 
The Narendra Modi-led Indian government has proposed to replace the old laws and allow brick and mortar shops like malls, eating joints, movies halls, markets, etc to remain open 24X7. 
 
This move will not only benefits customers and shopkeepers, it will also bring online and offline stores on the same platform, leading to improving the ease of doing business as well. 
 
Presently, there is a fixed time for shops to shutter down. Every state has a different law and this new draft will replace all laws. 
 
As per reports, India's retail industry is growing at 15% and expected to reach $1 trillion by 2020. 
 
If the proposal, being drafted by the labour ministry, gets a go ahead, people working at shops, malls, etc will have to work in shifts.

The short throw projector offers between a 60 to 120-inch projection from 1 to 3 meters distance in 4K resolution. The projector offers vertical keystone correction, image warping, and a 4-point keystone correction, making it easy to achieve a perfect image alignment. The included remote control has a motion-sensitive backlight, which is useful for making adjustments in the dark. The projector offers up to 240Hz refresh rate when connected to a console. You have the option to choose from 4K at 60Hz, 1440p at 120Hz or 1080p at 240Hz. I found the 1440p at 120Hz to offer the best balance of resolution and refresh rate. If you are watching movies or games, you can switch to 4K resolution. While using the projector at 240Hz, the company claims you can get the input lag down to 4.2 seconds. I played several games on the Xbox, from fast-paced games to games with varied visuals. The projector was able to properly render everything, with good shadow details even in dark areas. The projector’s Auto Low Latency Mode (ALLM) automatically switches to ultra-fast input settings when gaming is detected. However, in this mode, some image correction features are disabled to prioritise performance. Apart from gaming, the projector also works well for entertainment. While gaming, I used the device’s Gaming profile but switched to the Movie mode while watching movies. The projector is a great replacement for TVs and watching movies and even cricket on the console was a good experience. The ViewSonic X2-4K’s LED lamp offers a brightness of 2,900 Lumens. The light source is rated for 60,000 hours, so you don’t have to worry about it anytime soon. For audio, the projector is equipped with 2 x 6-watt Harmon Kardon speakers. The speakers deliver good audio, both for gaming and other entertainment. You also have the option to connect an external audio system using Bluetooth or the 3.5mm audio port. <h2>Verdict</h2>The ViewSonic X2-4K is a great option if you are a gamer looking to take your gaming experience to the next level and are willing to invest in a premium gaming projector. At the same time, the pricing is on the higher side and is a bit expensive for casual users. The projector can not only be used for gaming but also for watching movies and sports like cricket. If your wallet can take the hit, the ViewSonic X2-4K is an excellent option.

The announcement was made by the company’s chief executive officer (CEO) Madhav Sheth claiming that it will be the first Mediatek Dimensity 1200 powered smartphone in the country.

Starting with the screen, it will feature a Full HD+ Super AMOLED with 100 percent DCI-P3 colour gamut, up to 1000 nits of peak brightness and an 8,000,000:1 contrast ratio. The refresh rate will be set at 120Hz max and the touch sampling rate is said to be 360Hz. Realme X7 Max 5G camera The page also reveals the design and camera details. It will have a triple rear camera setup that includes a 64MP primary sensor, an 8MP ultra-wide-angle camera, and a 2MP macro shooter. The phone has a hole-punch cutout on the top left corner, but the megapixel count is not revealed. <div type="image" title="x7 design." msid="82932797" hostid="261"></div> Realme X7 Max 5G design As per the product page, the phone will weigh 179 grams and have an 8.4mm thick body. Surprisingly, a headphone jack can also be seen in the pictures. We can spot three colours of the phone - black, grey and pink -and the design looks strikingly similar to the Realme GT Neo and the specifications also look the same. The back has a sandblasted metal finish with a shiny strip running in-line the camera module with a Realme 'Dare to leap' branding at the bottom half. <div type="image" title="x7 charging." msid="82932773" hostid="261"></div> Realme X7 Max 5G charging and battery It also mentions that the phone will come with 50W fast charging which Realme calls the SuperDart tech that claims to charge 0-50% in 16 minutes. Although the promo page does not specify the battery size, it's likely to be 4500mAh if it's the same model as the Realme GT Neo. Other expected details of the Realme X7 Max If the Realme X7 Max 5G turns out to be a rebranded Realme Neo 5G, it will most likely have a 16MP front camera. 6.43-inch display and up to 12GB RAM and 256GB of UFS 3.1 storage.

As expected, the heat sink adds up a considerable amount of size and weight to the SSD. While the 2TB SSD without the heatsink measures 80mm x 22mm x 2.38mm and weighs 7.5 grams, the heatsink variant measures 80mm x 23.4mm x 8.8mm and weighs 24 grams. I tested the 2TB variant with a heatsink, which is quite bulky and the circuit board has been encased in metal. The heatsink comes with holes on the sides, allowing air to circulate between them and thereby increasing the surface area. This offers improved cooling, which comes in handy during gaming. <cmsannotation type="cmsannotation" annotationid="Software and performance" comment="subhead" text="Software and performance">Software and performance</cmsannotation> The WD Black SN850X can be updated and optimised with the company’s Dashboard management software that can be downloaded from its website. In addition to displaying the SSD’s information and health, the tool also offers an option to update the firmware and control the SSD. Western Digital has also offered the Game Mode 2.0 with the SN850X. This offers adaptive thermal management, predictive loading and overhead balancing. The application is easy to use and while there is not much to meddle with, it’s good to have the application. Coming to performance, the WD Black SN850X SSD comes with a NAND upgrade, which enables higher sequential-read speeds and an increased sequential-write speed. The SSD’s TLC flash memory chips have been upgraded to 112-layer chips, an upgrade from the SN850’s 96-layer TLC chips. The sequential-read speed has been upgraded from 7,000MB/s to 7,300MB/s and the sequential-write speed has been upgraded from 5,300MB/s to 6,300MB/s. During my testing, it offered a sequential read speed of 7363.74 MB/s and a sequential-write speed of 6690.06 MB/s on the CrystalDiskMark. Thermal management has also received a boost with the SN850X and during extensive gaming, the SSD hovers around 53-55 degrees, which is good. <cmsannotation type="cmsannotation" annotationid="Verdict" comment="subhead" text="Verdict">Verdict</cmsannotation> The WD Black SN850X 2TB SSD is an excellent option for those looking for a premium gaming SSD. You can pick between the heatsink and non-heatsink version depending on your motherboard. At the same time, this is an expensive product, which may be too expensive for some. If you are willing to splurge a bit, you will not go wrong with the SN850X.
