Crompton Launches Ameo Pro 5.5L Air Fryer with Even Heating Technology for Consistent Cooking

The promise of healthier, oil-free cooking has made air fryers a kitchen essential, yet achieving evenly cooked, consistent results often continues to remain a challenge. Recognising this gap, Crompton Greaves Consumer Electricals Ltd., India’s trusted name in home innovation, introduces the Ameo Pro 5.5L Air Fryer, designed to deliver a more consistent and reliable cooking experience for modern kitchens.   Crompton Ameo Pro Air Fryer   Air fryers have steadily found their way into Indian kitchens as a smarter, healthier alternative to traditional cooking but the experience hasn’t always matched the expectation. Uneven cooking remains the most common frustration, with users having to repeatedly pause mid-cook to check and rearrange food just to get consistent results. Add to that the noise during operation and the effort of cleaning up afterwards, and the convenience air fryers promise doesn’t always come through in practice.   The Ameo Pro 5.5L is built to change that. At its heart is Crompton’s Pro Heating Bowl – a uniquely designed structure with louvre-based airflow that enables optimised 360-degree heat circulation, ensuring food cooks evenly from all sides without the need for manual intervention. This not only enhances consistency but also reduces cooking time by up to 30%, while features such as low-noise operation and easy-to-clean components further simplify everyday use.   Key Features of the Crompton Ameo Pro 5.5L Air Fryer The Ameo Pro 5.5L comes equipped with thoughtfully designed features that support a more convenient and consistent cooking experience: Even Heating with Pro Heating Bowl (Up to 30% Faster Cooking): A uniquely designed bowl structure enables optimised airflow for uniform heat distribution, ensuring consistent cooking results without the need to rearrange food Nutriguard Technology: Designed to support better nutrient retention while enabling low-oil cooking for everyday meals SilentPro Technology: Enables quieter operation at under 52 dB, making it suitable for use at any time of the day Instapeek Window with Integrated Lamp: Allows users to monitor the cooking process in real time without opening the appliance, helping maintain consistent results Easy Cleaning: Dishwasher-safe basket and tray enable hassle-free maintenance 11 Pre-Set Menus with Interactive Display: Offers ease of use through intuitive controls and preset cooking options   Speaking about the new launch, Ketan Chaudhari, Head – Small Domestic Appliances, Crompton Greaves Consumer Electricals Ltd., said, “Air fryers have seen tremendous adoption in Indian homes over the past few years, but the category has largely moved on volume rather than solving the core experience gaps. At Crompton, we felt it was time to go deeper. The Ameo Pro isn’t just another air fryer — it’s our answer to what consumers have actually been asking for: food that cooks right the first time, without the constant monitoring. The Pro Heating Bowl is the result of that thinking. Beyond performance, we’ve also been deliberate about the details that matter in daily use — the noise levels, the cleaning, the ease of operation. These may seem like smaller considerations, but they’re what determine whether a product actually stays on the kitchen counter or gets pushed to the back of a cabinet. We’re confident the Ameo Pro earns its place.”   The Crompton Ameo Pro 5.5L Air Fryer will be available at all major retail outlets (MOR/GT). Designed for busy families and working professionals aged 25–40 who prioritise health, convenience, and consistent results, the appliance brings together efficient performance, ease of use, and dependable cooking, making it a valuable addition to modern kitchens.   About Crompton With a brand legacy of over 85 years, Crompton Greaves Consumer Electricals Ltd. is India’s market leader in the category of fans and residential pumps. Over the years, the organization has continuously strived to produce a range of innovative products that cater to the modern consumer including superior quality and high-performance fans, pumps, lighting solutions, and a range of other categories like water heaters; air coolers; small kitchen appliances like mixer grinders, air fryers, OTG, electric kettles etc; other home appliances like irons & built-in kitchen appliances.

63SATS Cybertech unveils CYBX Version 2 to empower NextGen digital safety

Amid the fast-evolving and forever-expanding world of cyber risks in every walk of life, 63SATS Cybertech, a subsidiary of 63 moons technologies, has broadened the cybersecurity landscape with the introduction of superapp CYBX Version 2 that upgrades mobile safety by moving beyond traditional protection toward a more intelligent and intuitive cyber shield, building upon its established people-first approach.   CYBX Version 2, a sophisticated superapp, is designed to combat evolving digital frauds and secure India’s digital ecosystem   Further, CYBX Version 2 sets a new benchmark in communication privacy by expanding its secure calling feature to support up to 50 participants, in addition to real-time blocking of phishing links, malicious apps, and unsafe public Wi-Fi.   Designed for high-stakes privacy, the secure calling feature is ideal for confidential business strategy discussions or sensitive personal chats, as it offers end-to-end encryption, prevents third-party call recording, and notifies you if the recipient puts the call on speakerphone.   Rolling out the upgraded CYBX V2 for consumers, Srinivas L, Joint Managing Director and Joint Chief Executive Officer, 63SATS Cybertech, said, “For many, one incident is enough to realise how vulnerable our everyday digital interactions can be. CYBX steps in as a trusted companion, helping users not only protect themselves but also rebuild confidence in their online engagement. With the launch of CYBX Version 2, we have taken this commitment a step further. From secure group calling to gamified elements that encourage better cyber habits, CYBX Version 2 empowers users to take control of their digital safety more smartly.”   To make security proactive rather than reactive, CYBX V2 introduces a gamified user experience. The CYBX security score is a dynamic rating (out of 100) that acts like a “credit score” for digital hygiene. A higher score reflects device integrity and cyber-safe user behaviour rather than the probability of hacking.   Besides, the upgraded version also offers smart nudges and badges, providing real-time prompts and rewards that encourage safer digital habits, such as verifying unknown QR codes and ensuring regular software updates.   The Mumbai-based Cybersecurity major CYBX Version 2 also enables simplified navigation that scans and secures the device in just 1-2 taps. Complex threats are explained in non-technical language. For example, a dangerous hyperlink would simply be described as an “Unsafe link” for the user instead of the more complicated “Malicious URL found”.   Further, to broaden the reach of cyber protection and ensure inclusivity across India’s digital ecosystem, CYBX V2 now includes Hindi language support. With this, the app breaks down barriers for non-English speakers, making high-level security accessible to a wider audience.   CYBX V2 retains its robust foundation of defending against around 100 cyber threat vectors. It continues to include the virtual ‘Sound Box’ which offers a “listen before you pay” feature while scanning QR payment codes to tackle UPI scams (like countering fake QR overlays by reading the payee’s name and, where included, amount details).   An industry-first integration offering financial protection of up to Rs. 10 lakh against cyber fraud remains the cornerstone of CYBX Version 2, depending upon the plan taken.   Powered by STQC-certified mobile threat detection technology (with more globally recognised certifications on the way), Srinivas points out, CYBX V2 ensures that as cyber threats evolve, users remain protected through a solution that is as simple as it is sophisticated.   “The landscape of cybercrimes has undergone significant change in the ever-growing digital world. Our focus has always been to create a solution that understands user behaviour, guides it, and ultimately makes cybersecurity a seamless part of everyday life. CYBX Version 2 is empowering the next generation for a safer digital future,” he adds.

Nykaa Marks Earth Day with 'Recycle and Rewards' Programme, Reinforcing its Commitment To Sustainability in Beauty

Every beauty ritual begins with a choice, and over time, those choices shape not just how we look, but the world we live in. As Nykaa, India’s leading beauty and lifestyle company, celebrates 14 years of redefining beauty in India, it is turning its focus to what comes after the last drop, the empty bottle, the finished jar, and the packaging we often overlook.   Nykaa’s Recycle and Rewards Program This Earth Day, Nykaa introduces ‘Recycle and Rewards’, a programme designed to bring responsibility into the heart of everyday beauty, and move meaningfully towards a more conscious beauty economy. Launching across 14 select stores, in line with Nykaa’s 14th birthday, the initiative invites customers to return their empty, used beauty packaging and take a small but powerful step towards a more conscious routine. This initiative will be rolled out across Nykaa stores in India in a phased manner.  Starting across key markets including Mumbai, Delhi, Gurgaon, Bangalore, and Kolkata, the programme will be available at select stores such as Palladium, Linking Road, Mumbai Mall of India, Noida, DLF Avenue Mall Saket, Delhi and 100 ft Road, Bangalore. At each participating store, a dedicated recycling bin will serve as a simple starting point, making it easier for customers to integrate responsible disposal into their beauty journeys. The process is designed to be seamless. Customers can clean their beauty empties at home, bring them to a participating Nykaa store, and drop them into the recycling bin. As an immediate benefit, they receive Rs 100 off on same-day in-store billing, along with 1,000 reward points per empty credited to their Nykaa account, capped at a maximum of 10,000 reward points per visit. These rewards are redeemable both online and in-store, reinforcing the idea that doing good should feel just as rewarding.  Open to all beauty and personal care packaging with no minimum threshold, the programme is designed to encourage consistent participation rather than one-time action. As an always-on initiative, it aims to build long-term habits, where small individual actions, like dropping off an empty, can collectively drive meaningful environmental impact.   Nykaa’s Recycle and Rewards Program Behind the scenes, all collected waste will be routed through Nykaa’s existing network and processed in line with its waste management practices, working with authorised recyclers to ensure responsible handling and recycling of materials. This structured approach ensures that what is collected does not end up in landfills, but is channelled back into the recycling ecosystem. ‘Recycle and Rewards’ is a natural extension of Nykaa’s broader vision of sustainable beauty. Over the years, the company has evolved to become a holistic lifestyle partner, increasingly aligning with the expectations of a new generation of consumers who value responsibility as much as aspiration. From curating brands that prioritise cleaner formulations and thoughtful packaging, to strengthening its own House of Nykaa portfolio and supply chain practices with a more conscious lens, each step reflects a larger commitment to building a responsible beauty ecosystem. Anchit Nayar, Executive Director and CEO, Nykaa Beauty, said, “Over the past 14 years, Nykaa has been built on the belief that beauty can inspire confidence, but it must also be responsible. With ‘Recycle and Rewards’, we are taking a step towards making sustainability more accessible and actionable for our consumers, integrating it seamlessly into their everyday beauty journeys. As consumption grows, so does our collective responsibility, and this initiative is designed to encourage mindful choices while rewarding positive behaviour. This is not a standalone effort, but a continuation of Nykaa’s long-term commitment to building a more sustainable beauty ecosystem.” As Nykaa steps into its next chapter, ‘Recycle and Rewards’ is a reminder that the future of beauty will be defined not just by innovation or aspiration, but by the habits we build, the communities we shape, and the responsibility we choose to take. Building a More Conscious Beauty Ecosystem Sustainability has always been at the core of Nykaa’s journey. Through its Nykaa 10×10 initiatives: Sustainability at the Core of Operations, this vision comes to life across everyday decisions, quietly reshaping how beauty is experienced, delivered, and consumed. It shows up in the smallest details and the largest systems. A shift to zero-paper order processing. Nearly every order, 96% in FY25, reaching customers in more sustainable packaging. Behind the scenes, materials are not discarded but reimagined 160 MT of plastic and 2,003 MT of carton waste recycled. Across the ecosystem, this thinking travels further. At Superstore by Nykaa, 1.5 million brand boxes found a second life in FY 25. Within House of Nykaa warehouses, every corrugated box was reused, turning routine operations into powerful acts of reduction and reuse. But this is not just about operations. It is about enabling a shift in mindset. A growing portfolio of clean, cruelty-free, and conscious beauty invites consumers to participate in this journey, making choices that are as responsible as they are aspirational. From warehouses to retail floors, these interconnected efforts are shaping a future where beauty and responsibility move together. And as Nykaa continues to innovate, partner, and engage more deeply, it is building towards a more circular, conscious ecosystem, one where every choice, big or small, adds up to something larger.   Appendix* List of 14 Nykaa stores where customers can give their empties   Sr No Store Name 1 Nykaa Luxe Phoenix Palladium Mumbai 2 Nykaa Luxe Churchgate Mumbai 3 Nykaa Luxe Breach Candy Mumbai HS 4 Nykaa Luxe Linking Road Khar HS Mumbai 5 Nykaa Luxe Oberoi Sky City Mall Borivali 6 Nykaa Luxe PMC Kurla Mumbai 7 Nykaa Luxe DLF Saket Delhi 8 Nykaa Luxe Mall of India Noida 9 Nykaa Luxe DLF Cyber Hub Gurgaon HS 10 Nykaa Luxe Pacific Mall Tagore Garden 11 Nykaa Luxe Connaught Place HS 12 Nykaa Luxe 100Ft Bengaluru 13 Nykaa Luxe Sarjapur Bangalore HS 14 Nykaa Luxe Park Street Kolkata   About Nykaa Nykaa’s vision is to bring inspiration and joy to people everywhere, every day.

Sudip Saha Elevated to Co-founder of Dreamtime Learning

Dreamtime Learning, founded by Lina Ashar, has elevated Sudip Saha to Co-Founder, formalising his operational role in scaling the organisation’s Conscious Learning Ecosystem across four business lines since 2023.   Dreamtime Learning elevates Sudip Saha from Chief Business Officer to Co-Founder, marking a shift from building systems to shaping the brand’s global growth journey   Backed by Gruhas, the investment vehicle of Nikhil Kamath and Abhijeet Pai, Dreamtime Learning operates a curriculum backed by brain and behavioural science across an online school, micro-school campuses, a partner school network, and a dedicated Southeast Asia entity. The organisation currently serves 2,000+ enrolled learners through its online school, runs two micro-school campuses in Pune and Hyderabad, and operates 80+ partner schools across India, Malaysia, Oman, UAE, and Saudi Arabia through its “Powered by Dreamtime Learning” programme.   Sudip joined right before the beginning in 2023 with a mandate to translate Dreamtime’s educational vision into scalable formats with measurable impact across geographies. Over three years, he drove enrollment growth in the online school to 2,000+ active learners, expanded the partner school network across five international markets, and operationalised two micro-school campuses as a proof-of-concept for a format the organisation plans to scale to additional cities. He led the incorporation and go-to-market for Dreamtime Learning Asia in Malaysia, structuring it as a standalone entity with locally accredited curriculum pathways, independent partnerships, and its own growth targets for the Southeast Asian market.   As Co-Founder, Sudip Saha takes co-ownership of Dreamtime Learning’s next chapter: where the organisation expands, which markets it bets on, and how it builds the infrastructure to support a fundamentally different model of schooling at scale. The elevation marks a shift from execution to ownership.   Reflecting on his transition, Lina Ashar, Founder of Dreamtime Learning, said, “Sudip has been central to how we’ve grown across markets and formats, and more importantly, how we think about the future of schooling. As we scale Dreamtime globally, his role becomes even more critical in building the systems and models that will define our next phase. This elevation recognises both his contribution and the role he will continue to play in what comes next.”   The elevation acknowledges Sudip’s role in translating Dreamtime Learning’s vision into a scalable, global model.   Speaking about his journey at Dreamtime Learning, Sudip Saha, Co-Founder, said, “Lina had a vision for what schooling could truly look like, one grounded in how children actually learn, not how systems have always run. From the moment I encountered that vision, I knew it was worth building for. My role has been to take everything she has imagined and find the ways to make it real: the schools, the partnerships, the markets, the models.

Juniper Green Energy Makes History as India's First FDRE Project Enters Commissioning Phase

India’s energy transition reaches a defining milestone — Juniper’s integrated 259 MWp Solar, 280 MW Wind, and 200 MWh BESS project enters commissioning phase across Rajasthan and Gujarat Juniper races ahead of all industry peers to become the FIRST RE developer to begin commissioning under the SJVN FDRE scheme, delivering firm, clean power to Haryana just as summer demand peaks   Having already pioneered India’s first merchant BESS in Bikaner, Juniper Green Energy Limited now achieves another landmark — beginning commissioning of India’s first Firm and Dispatchable Renewable Energy (FDRE) project under Government of India’s Flagship FDRE Guidelines, marking yet another historic first for the Indian power sector. The integrated project combines 259 MWp Solar, 280 MW Wind, and 200 MWh BESS spanning Rajasthan and Gujarat, designed to deliver reliable, Firm and Dispatchable clean power aligned precisely to grid demand.   Juniper Green Energy’s FDRE power plant in Fatehgarh, Barmer, Rajasthan   “This marks the start of India’s first Firm and Dispatchable Renewable Energy project — a defining milestone in our vision to deliver firm and dispatchable renewable power. It reflects Juniper Green Energy’s strong execution capabilities, technological depth, and commitment to shaping the future of sustainable energy. By seamlessly integrating solar, wind, and battery storage at utility scale, we are not only demonstrating India’s clean energy potential but also setting new benchmarks for reliability and innovation in the sector. FDRE is not just a project type — it is our conviction about how India will power its future,” said Ankush Malik, CEO, Juniper Green Energy Limited.   The FDRE Framework: Powering India’s Grid on Demand As India’s renewable energy capacity grew rapidly, grid stability became a pressing concern — solar stops generating at night and wind cannot be dispatched on demand. To bridge this gap, the Ministry of Power notified FDRE guidelines in June 2023, requiring developers to integrate solar, wind, and battery storage into a single project capable of delivering firm, scheduled power aligned precisely to Discom demand profiles. Unlike conventional renewables, FDRE is firm and dispatchable — making it, for the first time, a clean and reliable alternative to coal-based thermal generation   Key Project Milestones The 259 MWp solar capacity commenced commercial operations in March 2026, while the 200 MWh BESS capacity began commercial operations in April 2026.   Delivering Clean Power When Haryana Needs It Most As temperatures soar across North India in the summer months ahead, electricity demand in Haryana is expected to touch record highs. By commissioning its FDRE project ahead of schedule, Juniper Green Energy is directly addressing this critical need — delivering firm, renewable power that is both clean and dependable.   The SJVN FDRE Tender Juniper Green Energy’s FDRE project was awarded under a landmark tender floated by SJVN Limited under its SJVN FDRE Scheme, attracting India’s leading renewable energy developers in a competitive reverse auction process. Juniper signed a 200 MW Power Purchase Agreement (PPA) with SJVN, which has in turn executed a back-to-back Power Sale Agreement (PSA) with Haryana Power Purchase Centre (HPPC), ensuring firm, clean renewable power to the state of Haryana. Of all the developers who successfully bid under this tender, Juniper Green Energy is the FIRST to begin commissioning and supply power.   FDRE: The Future of India’s Energy Transformation The transformative impact of FDRE on India’s energy sector is multi-dimensional — enabling distribution companies to procure clean power that truly mirrors their demand patterns, while driving large-scale investment in battery storage and accelerating India’s domestic storage ecosystem. Since the Ministry of Power issued FDRE guidelines in 2023, over 10 tenders aggregating more than 14 GW of FDRE capacity have been launched by central and state agencies including SJVN, NHPC, SECI and NTPC, with approximately 10 GW already under construction — representing one of the fastest-growing segments in India’s utility-scale renewable energy market.   For Juniper Green Energy, FDRE represents a core pillar of its long-term strategy. The company is at the forefront of India’s transition to firm and dispatchable renewable energy, actively shaping the market through advanced integration of solar, wind, and energy storage, and by leading early execution under national FDRE programs. As new tender cycles emerge across central and state agencies, Juniper is well-positioned to continue leading from the front — developing and commissioning large-scale FDRE projects, delivering reliable clean power, and setting new benchmarks in execution, innovation, and grid-ready renewable solutions in India.   About Juniper Green Energy Juniper Green Energy is an independent renewable energy power producer in India, focused on the development, construction and operations of utility-scale solar, wind, and hybrid renewable energy projects. It is headquartered in Delhi NCR since October 2018; the company has grown its operational capacity to approximately 1.66 GWp (as of Jan 14th, 2026). With expertise spanning the entire project lifecycle – from initial concept to construction and development across India – Juniper Green Energy provides energy solutions and undertakes large-scale projects, thus playing a role in India’s shift towards clean energy.   Juniper Green Energy is a part of the AT Capital Group, a globally diversified investment group based in Singapore.
