Raincheck Earth Appoints Sanjit Phukan as Head of Marketing

New Delhi, Sept 02: Raincheck Earth, the company behind the internationally acclaimed Cherrapunji Eastern Craft Gin, has appointed Sanjit Phukan as its Head of Marketing, marking a significant step in the brand’s next phase of growth, both in India and globally.

Sanjit joins Raincheck Earth from Jameson, where he most recently served as Director – Marketing Communication, playing a pivotal role in shaping the brand’s cultural relevance and accelerating its growth in India. During his tenure, he conceptualised and led Jameson Connects India, a platform that brought together music, art, culture, and community through meaningful collaborations, partnerships, and original brand experiences.

With over 21 years of experience across sales, communications, digital transformation, and brand marketing, Sanjit has built an impressive career with some of the world’s most recognised consumer brands. Before Jameson, he spent over a decade with Nestlé, contributing to the growth of iconic brands including Maggi, Nescafé, Milkmaid, and KitKat. He also worked with Nestlé’s Global Digital Team in Switzerland before returning to India to lead the company’s digital transformation ecosystem.

His move to Raincheck Earth is as much a professional decision as it is a personal one. Born and raised in Northeast India, Sanjit shares a deep connection with the region and its stories. Joining Cherrapunji allows him to help build a brand that celebrates the landscape, culture, and craftsmanship of the Northeast while taking it to audiences around the world.

Speaking on the appointment, Mayukh Hazarika, Founder & CEO, Raincheck Earth, said:

“Sanjit understands something that’s difficult to teach, how brands become part of culture. Throughout his career, he’s consistently built communities, conversations, and experiences that people genuinely connect with. As Cherrapunji enters its next chapter, we’re excited to have someone who not only brings world-class marketing expertise but also shares a deep personal connection with the Northeast and everything this brand stands for.”

On joining Raincheck Earth, Sanjit Phukan said:

“I’ve spent much of my career building brands with incredible scale, but what drew me to Raincheck Earth was something different. Cherrapunji is building from a place with a powerful story, extraordinary ingredients, and a point of view that’s deeply authentic. Coming from the Northeast, this feels personal. It’s an opportunity to help build a globally respected brand while representing a region I’ve always been proud to call home.”

Beyond marketing, Sanjit is also a professional musician, having toured extensively with his band, and a published author. These creative pursuits continue to shape the way he approaches storytelling, culture, and brand building, qualities that align closely with Raincheck Earth’s vision of creating products rooted in place, purpose, and craftsmanship.

As Raincheck Earth continues to expand its global footprint following recent international recognition, including the Red Dot Award: Product Design 2026, Sanjit’s appointment reinforces the company’s commitment to building culturally relevant, design-led brands from Northeast India for the world.

Peggy Lillis Foundation to Host 17th Annual Changing the Odds Gala in Support of C. Difficile Advocacy and Awareness

BROOKLYN, NY (September 2, 2026) – The Peggy Lillis Foundation (PLF), the nation’s leading nonprofit dedicated to raising awareness of and combating Clostridioides difficile (C. diff), will host its 17th Annual Changing the Odds Gala on Friday, September 18, 2026, at 26 Bridge in Brooklyn, NY. The Foundation’s signature fundraising event will unite patients, caregivers, healthcare professionals, researchers, and industry leaders for an evening dedicated to advancing education, advocacy, and policy efforts that improve outcomes for those affected by C. diff—a serious bacterial infection that sickens nearly half a million Americans and contributes to nearly 30,000 deaths each year. 

“The fragmentation of our healthcare system is a key factor in C. diff infection proliferating. Patients seeing doctors at multiple systems; the disconnect between in-patient and outpatient care; the underinvestment in infection prevention; and the lack of input from patients in everything from drug to guideline development allows C. diff infections to proliferate,” said Christian John Lillis, Co-Founder and CEO of the Peggy Lillis Foundation. “That’s why I’m so pleased that this year we’re honoring people who represent the whole fight against C. diff. Dr. Alexander Khoruts of the University of Minnesota, a physician-scientist; Peter Westerhaus of Achieving Cures Together, a philanthropist;  Bobby Warren, director of the DiRTE Lab at Duke, an environmental hygiene researcher; and Carol Raye, a patient who survived recurrent C. diff and has become a national leader in providing peer support. Along with PLF, our honorees touch every aspect of the fight against C. diff.”

Guests will enjoy a cocktail reception, a full dinner, casino games, raffles, and dancing while celebrating the individuals whose leadership, innovation, and support are advancing the fight against C. diff, with the presentation of the Foundation’s annual awards.

Recurrent C. diff survivor and longtime Peggy Lillis Foundation advocate Carol Raye is being honored with this year’s Advocate Award. After developing a severe C. diff infection in 2011, Carol endured months of illness, isolation, and failed treatments before receiving a fecal microbiota transplant (FMT). Through her recovery, she has become one of the Foundation’s most dedicated volunteers, serving as Chair of the Peer Support Network and helping countless patients navigate their own C. diff journeys through education, lobbying efforts, mentorship, and advocacy.

“In the middle of the pandemic shutdown, I found the 2020 Peggy Lillis Foundation’s virtual Summit and immediately volunteered. I have become lifetime friends with other PLF advocates and some of the patients that I have mentored,” said Carol Raye. “Attending the annual Summit and Lobby Day has become a joyful annual family reunion! I am deeply honored to be this year’s advocacy award recipient.” 

The Leadership Award will be presented to Alexander Khoruts, MD, and Pete J. Westerhaus in recognition of their accomplishments in advancing microbiome science and improving outcomes for patients affected by C. diff. Dr. Khoruts is a nationally recognized gastroenterologist, microbiome researcher, and pioneer in microbiota therapeutics. As Professor of Medicine and Director of the Microbiota Therapeutics Program at the University of Minnesota, he has led groundbreaking research that helped establish fecal microbiota transplantation (FMT) as a transformative treatment for recurrent C. diff. 

“I am immensely honored to be recognized by the Peggy Lillis Foundation. The award is especially meaningful because this Foundation was established in memory of a patient who died of fulminant C. difficile infection, the most lethal form of this disease and a condition that I am especially focusing my clinical and research efforts at this time,” said Dr. Khoruts.

Peter Westerhaus is the founder of Achieving Cures Together (ACT), a nonprofit organization dedicated to accelerating medical research and advancing treatments in the field of the human microbiome. Through ACT, he has championed collaboration among researchers, clinicians, and industry leaders to help bring innovative microbiome therapies to patients in need.

“Having personally suffered through multiple C. diff infections, I know firsthand the devastating impact this horrific superbug can have on patients and their families. The Peggy Lillis Foundation has been a powerful voice in raising awareness and advocating for those affected by C. diff, and I’m deeply honored to be recognized by such an outstanding organization,” said Peter Westerhaus.

Bobby Warren, MPS, will receive this year’s Innovator Award. Warren is a researcher in antimicrobial stewardship, healthcare epidemiology, and infection prevention at Duke University, where he serves as Lab Director of the Duke Center for Antimicrobial Stewardship and Infection Prevention’s Disinfection, Resistance and Transmission Epidemiology (DiRTE) Lab. Through his research on environmental contamination, disinfection strategies, and the prevention of healthcare-associated infections, including C. diff, Warren is advancing innovative approaches to improve patient safety and reduce the spread of infectious diseases. 

“Receiving the Peggy Lillis Foundation’s Innovator Award is a tremendous honor. I’ve always believed that some of the biggest opportunities to prevent healthcare-associated infections come from better understanding how pathogens move through and persist in the healthcare environment—and then figuring out what we can actually do about it,” said Warren. “What makes this recognition especially meaningful is PLF’s commitment to turning science and advocacy into action that improves patient safety. I’m incredibly grateful to be recognized by an organization that shares that same drive to challenge how we think about infection prevention and find better ways to protect patients.”

Landmark India Book Market Report 2026–2030 to Be Unveiled on 3rd  September by FIP and NielsenIQ BookData

New Delhi, Sept 01: The Federation of Indian Publishers (FIP), in collaboration with NielsenIQ BookData, today announced the release of the India Book Market Report 2026-2030, a comprehensive study mapping the scale, structure, transformation and future growth opportunities of India’s book publishing industry.

Building on the landmark India Book Market Report released in 2022, the new edition looks ahead to the forces likely to reshape publishing over the remainder of the decade, including Artificial Intelligence, digitisation, new distribution models, the growth of Indian-language markets and India’s expanding role in the global publishing ecosystem.

The report analyses print and digital trends including e-books and audiobooks across school, higher education, trade and scholarly publishing. It also evaluates the sector’s economic impact, employment, technology adoption, copyright and licensing and the evolving policy environment.

This study combines extensive industry research, stakeholder consultations and market intelligence to help publishers, policymakers, investors, educational institutions, technology companies, authors, booksellers, libraries, and other stakeholders make more informed data driven decisions.

Data as Infrastructure for the Industry

Pranav Gupta, Vice President, Federation of Indian Publishers and Project Leader, India Book Market Report 2026-2030, said:

“Publishing has always been fundamental to India’s intellectual, educational and cultural progress. But an industry of this scale and strategic importance cannot plan its future on perception or anecdotal evidence alone. It needs credible data, continuous research and an evidence base that policymakers, businesses and institutions can confidently work with.”

“For us, the India Book Market Report 2026-2030 is therefore much more than a report. It is an industry infrastructure project. It attempts to create a common factual foundation from which we can discuss growth, investment, copyright, technology, education, Indian languages, exports and public policy. As India moves towards becoming one of the world’s leading knowledge economies, publishing must be recognised not simply as a commercial industry, but as an essential pillar of that ambition.”

Gupta added:

“The real value of data begins when it improves decisions. We hope this report helps move conversations about Indian publishing from assumptions to evidence and from evidence to meaningful action.”

Bringing Greater Market Intelligence to a Rapidly Evolving Sector

Vikrant Mathur, Executive Director, NielsenIQ BookData, India & GCC, said:

“India represents one of the most exciting and complex publishing markets in the world. Its scale, demographic profile, education ecosystem, linguistic diversity and increasing adoption of technology create significant opportunities, but they also make reliable market intelligence essential.”

“The India Book Market Report 2026-2030 brings together research and industry insight to provide a clearer understanding of how the market is evolving and where future opportunities may emerge. From print and digital formats to education, Indian languages, Artificial Intelligence, policy and international engagement, this report seeks to give stakeholders a comprehensive perspective on the forces shaping Indian publishing through 2030.”

Mathur further said:

“Reliable data enables businesses to invest with greater confidence, allows policymakers to frame better-informed interventions and helps the international publishing community understand India more accurately. We believe this report can serve as an important reference point for all three.”

From India to the Global Publishing Conversation

Following its national launch in New Delhi on 3 September 2026, the findings of the India Book Market Report 2026-2030 are also expected to contribute to the international conversation around Indian publishing, including at the Frankfurt Book Fair 2026.

As global publishers, technology companies, educational organisations, and investors look to India, the report offers a more structured, evidence-led view of the country’s domestic publishing ecosystem and its international potential.

The Federation of Indian Publishers published the report, and NielsenIQ BookData prepared it.

Festive Shopping Set to Lift GST Collections as Consumer Spending Gains Strength

New Delhi, Sep 1: India’s GST collections are expected to gain further momentum in the coming months as festive-season shopping and stronger consumer spending support economic activity.

Industry experts believe higher spending during the festive period could translate into stronger GST revenues, particularly across sectors such as automobiles, consumer electronics, retail, FMCG and other discretionary categories.

India’s gross GST collections rose 14.8 per cent year-on-year to nearly Rs 2 lakh crore in August 2026, while net collections increased 8.3 per cent after accounting for refunds. The latest numbers indicate continued strength in economic activity and tax compliance.

The upcoming festive season is expected to provide another boost as households typically increase spending on products and services. Stronger consumption can benefit businesses across the supply chain, from manufacturers and wholesalers to retailers, logistics companies and digital payment providers.

The outlook is also supported by India’s broader economic performance. The economy grew 7.8 per cent in the April-June quarter, with consumption and private investment contributing to the expansion.

For businesses, stronger festive demand could improve sales volumes and provide a positive start to the second half of the financial year. For the government, higher GST collections would strengthen revenue flows and provide greater fiscal flexibility.

However, global risks remain a factor to watch. Elevated crude oil prices, geopolitical tensions and inflationary pressures could affect household budgets and business costs if they persist.

With consumer sentiment showing resilience, industry experts expect the festive season to play an important role in sustaining India’s consumption momentum and supporting GST revenue growth in the months ahead.

Force Motors Reports 62 percentage Growth in Domestic Wholesales in August 2026

Mumbai, Sep 01: Force Motors Limited, India’s largest van maker and an automotive manufacturer, reported total domestic sales of 3,721 units in August 2026, registering a strong 62% growth compared to 2,295 units sold in August 2025. The strong growth reflects healthy demand across the company’s vehicle segments, with customers responding positively to its diverse product portfolio.

A key highlight of the recent period has been the introduction of the new Force Traveller N and Urbania Deluxe, both of which have received an encouraging response from the market. Following the initial scale-up of these new offerings, volumes have stabilised since launch, enabling the company to meet market demand with greater consistency. The Traveller N builds on the strong legacy of the Traveller, while the Urbania Deluxe further strengthens Force Motors’ presence in the premium shared mobility segment.

Commenting on the performance, Mr. Prasan Firodia, Managing Director, Force Motors Limited, said,

“The strong growth in August is encouraging and reflects the positive response we are seeing across our portfolio. The recent introduction of the Traveller N and Urbania Deluxe has further strengthened our product offering, and we are pleased with the response from our customers.

We will continue to stay close to our customers, understand their needs and keep improving our products to serve them better. As we build on this momentum, our focus will remain on delivering the right products and experiences, while continuing to execute with consistency.”

Singapore Market Update: STI Falls Nearly 1 pc as Oil Surge Hits Sentiment

Singapore, Sep 1: Singapore’s stock market came under pressure on Tuesday as rising crude oil prices and continued geopolitical tensions made investors more cautious.

The Straits Times Index (STI) ended the session at 5,710.37, down 44.99 points, or 0.8 per cent, from the previous close. The index moved between 5,694.39 and 5,770.33 during the day.

The decline followed a weaker trend across several Asian markets as investors assessed the possible economic impact of higher energy prices and growing uncertainty in global markets.

Rising oil prices remained a major concern. Higher energy costs can increase expenses for companies, put pressure on consumers and add to inflation, potentially influencing the outlook for interest rates.

Geopolitical tensions also kept investors on edge, encouraging a more cautious approach to riskier assets. Market participants are closely watching developments in the Middle East for signs of further disruption to global energy supplies.

Despite the overall decline, some Singapore-listed companies saw positive corporate developments. Hong Leong Asia gained nearly 2 per cent after its subsidiary renewed its application for a listing on the Main Board of the Hong Kong Stock Exchange.

Keppel DC REIT also remained in focus after agreeing to acquire an 88.62 per cent effective stake in two hyperscale data centres in Japan, strengthening its exposure to the growing digital infrastructure sector.

Vibrant Group announced the acquisition of a 60 per cent stake in Fair Breeze Trading for around SG$7.7 million.

Looking ahead, investors are expected to closely track crude oil movements, global interest rates, bond yields and geopolitical developments. With external uncertainties still high, Singapore’s stock market may remain volatile in the near term.

The market’s direction will largely depend on whether oil prices stabilise and global risk sentiment improves.

Matrix Geo Completes 314 km Geospatial Survey Across Five Highway Sections for RITES and NHAI

New Delhi,  Sep 1: Matrix Geo Solutions Limited, a geospatial technology and engineering consultancy, has completed a highway survey assignment spanning approximately 314 km across five road sections under LOT-2/HARYANA/Package-1. The project was awarded by RITES Limited, a Navratna Enterprise of the Government of India under the Ministry of Railways, on behalf of the National Highways Authority of India .

The assignment was part of consultancy services for preparing a Detailed Project Report for the development of economic corridors, inter-corridor and feeder routes aimed at improving freight movement efficiency in India. Matrix Geo Solutions was responsible for mapping the physical, utility and land-related characteristics required across the identified highway sections.

The work combined several survey technologies within one assignment. Topographic data was captured using Aerial/Mobile LiDAR and UAV systems, while Ground Penetrating Radar was used for utility mapping. The scope also covered Final Location Survey, land acquisition support and digitization of cadastral maps.

The five road sections covered were Rewari–Narnaul–Pacheri Kalan on NH-11, Narnaul–Nangal Chaudhary–Paniyala Mor on NH-148B, Gurgaon–Pataudi–Rewari on NH-352W, Sangat Kalan–Mandi Dabwali–Sangaria on NH-54, and Bhiwani–Bawani Khera–Hansi–Barwala on NH-148B.

The assignment was executed with a contract value of ₹2,82,64,571 including GST. RITES Limited has now issued an Experience/Completion Certificate dated 21 August 2026, confirming the successful and satisfactory completion of the work.

Commenting on the completion, Mr. Rahul Jain, Managing Director, Matrix Geo Solutions Limited, said,

“Projects of this scale and duration require consistency, coordination and attention to detail throughout their execution. I would like to thank everyone involved for their contribution in bringing this assignment to completion. The work required sustained coordination across field surveys, data processing and project requirements over an extended period. Ensuring that each stage was executed with the required accuracy and discipline was central to completing the assignment successfully.”

For a project of this nature, the challenge extends beyond collecting survey data. Different datasets need to remain spatially consistent so that terrain information, underground utilities, road alignments and cadastral records can be used within the same project framework. This was particularly relevant given the length and varied nature of the five road sections covered under the assignment.

The completed assignment adds to Matrix Geo Solutions’ experience in large-scale highway surveying and geospatial mapping. It also represents an integrated use of aerial, mobile and ground-based technologies for infrastructure project preparation, where accurate spatial information is required across multiple stages of planning and development.

India-Uzbekistan Payment Deal Brings UPI Closer to Global Mainstream

New Delhi, Sep 1: India’s digital payments ecosystem is taking another step towards global expansion as NPCI International Payments Ltd (NIPL) partners with Uzbekistan’s National Interbank Processing Centre (NIPC) to enable UPI-based merchant payments across the country.

Under the new arrangement, Indian tourists, business travellers and students visiting Uzbekistan will be able to use their UPI-enabled applications to scan the country’s UZQR code and make payments at participating merchants.

The commercial agreement between NIPL, the international arm of the National Payments Corporation of India, and NIPC, which operates Uzbekistan’s HUMO payment system, was signed on August 30 during Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s visit to Uzbekistan.

The partnership follows approvals from the Reserve Bank of India and the Central Bank of Uzbekistan. HUMO has been designated as NIPL’s authorised partner for cross-border merchant acceptance.

The integration of UPI with Uzbekistan’s national QR infrastructure is expected to make everyday payments easier for Indian visitors. Travellers will be able to pay directly from their Indian bank accounts, reducing the need to carry large amounts of cash or depend entirely on international payment cards.

The development could also benefit Uzbekistan’s tourism, hospitality, retail and service sectors by making payments more convenient for Indian visitors. Hotels, restaurants, shops and other merchants can gain access to another digital payment channel as the movement of Indian travellers between the two countries grows.

From India’s perspective, the agreement strengthens the international presence of UPI and highlights the expanding role of Indian digital payment technology in cross-border commerce.

The partnership also creates scope for deeper cooperation in financial technology, digital payments and related services between the two countries. For businesses, easier payment connectivity can support tourism spending, trade-related travel and other commercial activities.

UPI is already accepted in several international markets, including Singapore, the United Arab Emirates, France, Mauritius, Nepal, Bhutan, Qatar, Sri Lanka, Cambodia and Greece.

The addition of Uzbekistan further expands the international footprint of the Indian payment platform and strengthens India’s efforts to promote digital payment connectivity with partner countries.

The agreement comes at a time when QR-based payments are becoming increasingly important in international travel. For consumers and businesses alike, interoperable digital payment systems can make cross-border transactions faster, simpler and more accessible.

The India-Uzbekistan partnership therefore goes beyond a payment arrangement, offering potential benefits for tourism, retail, hospitality, fintech and wider economic engagement between the two countries.

ClearTax and Odoo Partner to Embed Tax Compliance and E-Invoicing Across Five GCC Markets

Dubai, UAE, Sep 1: ClearTax, a global tax compliance and e-invoicing technology company, has announced a partnership with Odoo, one of the world’s leading open-source business management platforms, to simplify tax compliance and e-invoicing for businesses across the Gulf region.

As part of the partnership, Odoo will develop a native integration with ClearTax for customers in the UAE and GCC. The integration will enable Odoo users to manage indirect tax compliance, invoicing and evolving regulatory requirements directly within their existing ERP workflows.

The partnership comes as governments across the region accelerate the digitisation of tax administration and introduce new e-invoicing frameworks. This is creating a growing need, particularly among small and medium-sized enterprises, for technology that can reduce manual processes, improve accuracy and keep pace with changing regulations.

Through the native connector, Odoo customers will be able to access ClearTax’s compliance capabilities through a simplified, self-service onboarding journey. By embedding compliance into software businesses already use, the integration is expected to reduce the time, effort and operational complexity involved in implementing compliant tax and invoicing processes.

The partnership is expected to initially benefit an estimated 4,000 to 5,000 businesses using Odoo across the UAE and Oman, while also extending access to Odoo customers across the wider GCC. ClearTax and Odoo plan to explore opportunities to expand the partnership into additional international markets over time.

“Businesses do not want tax compliance to operate as a separate and disconnected process. They expect it to be built into the systems they already use to manage their operations,” said Archit Gupta, Founder and CEO, ClearTax. “Our partnership with Odoo responds directly to that need. By bringing ClearTax’s compliance infrastructure into the Odoo ecosystem, we are making it easier for businesses across the region to manage regulatory change while remaining focused on growth.”

Pavitra Singh, Managing Director at Odoo Middle East, said, “The partnership between Odoo and ClearTax will allow Odoo customers to seamlessly stay compliant with the ever-evolving e-invoicing landscape across the region. At Odoo, our priority has always been to provide fully localized solutions that meet the needs of each market we operate in, and our partnership with ClearTax is a step in that direction.”

Odoo has established a strong presence among small and medium-sized businesses through its integrated suite of applications covering accounting, finance, sales, inventory, manufacturing, human resources, customer relationship management and e-commerce.

ClearTax supports more than 5,000 enterprises globally and processes over one billion e-invoices annually. Its tax compliance and e-invoicing platform enables businesses to integrate regulatory compliance into existing ERP and finance systems through automation, intelligent workflows and API-led integrations.

By combining Odoo’s business management platform with ClearTax’s compliance technology and regional expertise, the partnership aims to make tax compliance a more seamless part of everyday business operations for companies across the Gulf.
