  • Airport transit hospitality at IGI gets tech upgrade as Encalm integrates Hotelogix system

    Vikas Sharma, Group Chief Executive Officer of Encalm Hospitality Pvt. Ltd., and Sivaprasad Gangadharan, Chief Sales Officer of Hotelogix, comment on the deployment of a cloud based property management system at Indira Gandhi International Airport

    Delhi, 11 February 2026: Airport linked hospitality services at Indira Gandhi International Airport are undergoing a technology upgrade as Encalm Hospitality Pvt. Ltd. integrates a cloud based Hotel Property Management System from Hotelogix across its transit hotel operations.
    Encalm Hospitality, the exclusive operator of the transit hotel at IGI Airport in New Delhi, manages premium lounges, transit accommodation, meet and assist services, and concierge operations. The company also operates at airports in Hyderabad and Goa and has outlined expansion plans in India and overseas markets.

    The newly deployed system is designed to centralise operations and support high frequency short stay bookings, including hourly room sales. Transit hotels located inside or near airports often operate on compressed guest cycles, serving business travellers, airline crew, and passengers during layovers or delays. Selling rooms by the hour allows operators to generate multiple bookings within a single day.
    Vikas Sharma, Group Chief Executive Officer of Encalm Hospitality Pvt. Ltd., said the company selected Hotelogix for its understanding of airport hospitality requirements. He said the platform supports end to end operational management, including hourly bookings, and enables central oversight of properties at and near airports. He added that the system provides operational control and flexibility required to manage growing airport linked operations.

    The hourly booking model continues to gain traction globally. Industry estimates indicate that the segment is projected to expand significantly by 2027. In India, approximately 15 to 20 percent of hotels, primarily near airports, railway stations, and corporate hubs, have introduced hourly room formats.
    Sivaprasad Gangadharan, Chief Sales Officer of Hotelogix, said airport hotels depend on efficient systems to manage high guest turnover and short stay formats. He said the company aims to support hospitality providers in improving operational efficiency while maintaining consistent guest service standards.

    Hotelogix serves more than 12,000 hotels across over 100 countries and supports approximately 400,000 hotel rooms in India through its cloud PMS and AxisRooms distribution solutions. The company is headquartered in Singapore with offices across the United States, India, the UAE, Thailand, and the Philippines.

    The campaign features Gursimran Khamba, co founder of AIB, alongside Ismeet Kohli, actress known for Badtameez Dil. The film opens with a familiar question about Valentine’s Day gifting, followed by a response shaped by common assumptions. The conversation shifts as Kohli points out that what matters is relevance and understanding rather than predictable choices. The exchange leads to the reveal of the Chrome Iris smartwatch, ordered on Instamart and delivered in time for the occasion.

    The campaign is designed for digital platforms and uses conversational humour to address modern relationship dynamics. It positions the product as a practical option suited for everyday use rather than a symbolic gesture.
    The Chrome Iris smartwatch features Bluetooth calling, customisable cloud based watch faces, wellness tracking functions, and a slim profile intended for daily wear. It is designed for users seeking a combination of functionality and minimal design. The device is available in multiple colours.

    A spokesperson for boAt said the campaign is built on the idea that meaningful gifts are defined by intent and usefulness rather than scale. The spokesperson added that even purchases made close to the occasion can reflect consideration when the product aligns with everyday needs.
    The Chrome Iris smartwatch is available through Instamart, boat-lifestyle.com, and select retail outlets across India at a maximum retail price of INR 3,499.

  • Enterprise Autonomy in Focus as Honeywell and TCS Align OT and IT Capabilities with AI

    Ashish Modi, President Honeywell India and Asia Pacific, and Anupam Singhal, President Manufacturing Business Group at Tata Consultancy Services, outline how the collaboration aims to enable intelligent building and industrial operations

    Enterprise automation is moving beyond isolated control systems toward integrated, data driven autonomy as Honeywell and Tata Consultancy Services announced a strategic collaboration to help building and industrial operators unify operational technology and information technology environments using artificial intelligence.
    The initiative combines Honeywell’s experience in operational technology automation, control systems, and AI powered analytics with TCS’ capabilities in IT modernisation, cloud infrastructure, and consulting. The objective is to create a digital foundation that allows real time visibility, predictive intelligence, and autonomous process control across enterprise environments.

    Under the collaboration, Honeywell will integrate its automation platforms, including Honeywell Forge and its industrial and building suites, with TCS’ IT and consulting capabilities. The approach is designed to support the flow of operational data into enterprise IT systems, enabling operators to transition from traditional automation to enterprise wide autonomy.
    The integrated framework is expected to allow systems to perceive, analyse, act, and learn across connected environments. By converging OT and IT into a unified infrastructure, building managers and industrial operators can gain improved visibility into asset performance, operational risks, and process efficiency.

    Commenting on the collaboration, Ashish Modi, President Honeywell India and Asia Pacific, said, “Our customers manage complex operations where OT and IT have traditionally functioned separately. With advancements in 5G connectivity, cloud computing, and AI, the convergence of these domains can accelerate operational insight and efficiency. Bringing these capabilities together through one cohesive system is expected to support safer, more agile, and more informed decision making.”
    Anupam Singhal, President Manufacturing Business Group at Tata Consultancy Services, said the partnership focuses on enabling enterprises to adopt autonomous workflows at scale. “By combining industry expertise with digital and AI capabilities, we aim to help organisations run more connected and efficient operations. This collaboration reflects a shared focus on long term value and enabling customers to make more intelligent decisions as they modernise their infrastructure.”

    As part of the initiative, Honeywell will leverage its AI enabled industrial technologies and OT cybersecurity capabilities to support process efficiency, asset uptime, and workforce productivity. The offering will initially be introduced to customers in India before expanding to global markets, including the United States and the Middle East.
    The collaboration reflects a broader industry shift toward integrated digital ecosystems where operational and enterprise data converge to support autonomous decision frameworks in buildings and industrial environments.

These elements are expected to support healthier daily living conditions and greater functional stability for families residing in the homes.

    Sharing his perspective on the project, Vachan Singh, Chief Operating Officer of Max Estates Limited, said the initiative reflects the organisation’s Sevabhav approach, centred on service and responsibility beyond commercial development.

He added that each completed home represents a step toward greater stability and opportunity for families.

    The project highlights the role of cross sector collaboration in addressing housing access through structured, time bound initiatives. By combining development capability with community engagement, the partnership focused on delivering housing outcomes within a defined framework.

  • Solar Capacity of 69.51 MWp Takes Shape Across Two States Through Bondada Engineering Projects

    Rear Admiral R Sreenivas, VSM Retired, Chief Executive Officer of Bondada Group, explains how coordinated execution across Maharashtra and Tamil Nadu supported recent solar project outcomes

    Solar infrastructure activity spanning Maharashtra and Tamil Nadu moved into an operational phase during January 2026 through project execution undertaken by Bondada Engineering Limited, contributing a combined solar capacity of 69.51 MWp across multiple location.
    The projects were delivered for a mix of public and private sector clients, including Paradigm IT, MAHAGENCO, and NLC India Limited. Work was carried out at several sites in Maharashtra, including Hingoli, Achalpur, Bhusawal, and Vajiapur, alongside project execution at Neyveli in Tamil Nadu. The spread of locations reflected a period of parallel activity across geographically distinct regions.

    Project progress during this phase was characterised by coordinated sequencing of site activities and closer alignment between engineering, procurement, and construction teams. Multiple sites advanced simultaneously under defined operational controls, allowing schedules to be maintained while addressing location specific requirements.
    Commenting on the execution phase, R Sreenivas, Chief Executive Officer of Bondada Group, said the outcomes demonstrated how structured planning and delivery oversight support scale across dispersed sites. He noted that managing several locations in parallel requires disciplined project management and maturing internal processes, particularly as renewable energy infrastructure expands across states.

    “The recent execution phase reflects the strength of our planning and delivery teams and our ability to coordinate work across multiple locations within defined timelines. As renewable energy deployment continues to expand, disciplined execution and operational governance remain central to sustaining scale and consistency,” he said.
    The completed capacity adds to the growing base of utility scale solar infrastructure supporting power generation in Maharashtra and Tamil Nadu. The projects align with broader national objectives focused on expanding renewable energy capacity and supporting India’s transition toward cleaner power systems.

    Bondada Engineering Limited continues to work across renewable energy segments with an emphasis on steady execution, compliance, and long term value creation, as infrastructure development progresses across diverse regional markets.

  • Axis Bank Reorients MSME Credit Around Collateral Led Liquidity

    Bipin Saraf, Group Executive and Head Bharat Banking at Axis Bank, shares how secured overdrafts are reshaping small business financing

    As access to timely working capital remains a critical challenge for India’s Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises, banks are increasingly recalibrating credit strategies to balance speed, risk management, and borrower flexibility. Within this evolving landscape, Axis Bank has introduced a secured overdraft facility for MSMEs that enables businesses to unlock liquidity against gold assets while maintaining operational continuity.
    The gold backed overdraft facility is available to individual entrepreneurs and sole proprietors, including both existing and new to bank customers. It is operational across more than 3,300 Axis Bank branches enabled for gold lending, offering widespread access to credit for small businesses across urban and semi urban markets.

    Eligible borrowers can access same day over the counter disbursement, with funds credited directly to their bank accounts. Loan amounts range from ₹50,000 to ₹1 crore, subject to eligibility criteria and internal policies. Structured as an overdraft, the facility requires borrowers to service only monthly interest, allowing greater flexibility in managing cash flows during business cycles.
    The documentation process has been kept limited, with requirements restricted to KYC, Udyam Registration or Assist Certificate, and either income tax returns or GST registration. Loans are extended against gold jewellery, enabling faster credit access without reliance on unsecured borrowing or lengthy approval processes.

    A defining feature of the facility is a loan to value of up to 82 percent, which is higher than standard market offerings while remaining aligned with regulatory norms. According to the bank, this higher eligibility is supported by disciplined underwriting practices, robust risk management frameworks, and stringent gold valuation and collateral monitoring systems. These controls are intended to ensure portfolio quality while expanding credit availability.
    Commenting on the approach to MSME lending, Bipin Saraf, Group Executive and Head Bharat Banking at Axis Bank, said, “Small businesses are central to India’s economic momentum, yet timely access to working capital remains a persistent challenge. By combining secured lending with speed and flexibility, we are enabling MSMEs to meet their business needs without disruption. Our focus remains on extending credit within prudent limits while maintaining strong risk governance.”

    The offering aligns with broader trends in India’s credit ecosystem, where secured lending and MSME financing are emerging as key growth drivers. Rising gold prices, alongside the need for short tenure and predictable working capital solutions, have increased the relevance of collateral backed credit for small businesses seeking liquidity without long term balance sheet strain.
    Through this initiative, Axis Bank aims to strengthen its MSME portfolio by offering credit solutions that respond to changing business needs while aligning with evolving credit market dynamics.

  • Global construction firm deepens India presence as Turner International sets up new workspace with WeWork India in Airoli

    Jairam Panch of Turner International and Santosh Martin of WeWork India outline how a fully customised managed office supports scale, collaboration, and long term enterprise growth

    A new enterprise managed office in Airoli marks the next phase of expansion for Turner International India, as the global construction and project management firm strengthens its operations in the country through an expanded partnership with WeWork India.
    As part of the expansion, Turner International has established a 46,000 square foot managed workspace at WeWork Gigaplex in Airoli, Mumbai, with capacity for more than 650 professionals. The new facility reflects Turner’s long term commitment to India’s infrastructure and talent ecosystem, while also signalling the growing role of flexible, experience led workspaces in enterprise growth strategies.

    Turner’s decision to consolidate its teams in a large scale managed office highlights how enterprises are increasingly viewing workspace design as a strategic enabler of collaboration, culture, and operational agility. Exclusively designed for Turner, the office aligns with the company’s global standards while integrating WeWork India’s design capabilities and operational flexibility to support scale and evolving business needs.
    Jairam Panch, Chief Operating Officer, Turner International, said the new workspace reflects the company’s confidence in India and its people. He said the managed office goes beyond being a physical workplace and represents Turner’s continued investment in building an environment that supports collaboration, creativity, and excellence, while remaining aligned with how its India teams work and grow. He added that WeWork India has been a trusted partner in translating Turner’s culture and vision into a functional and inspiring workspace.

    Turner’s association with WeWork India began in 2022 with a 16 seat private office and has since evolved into an enterprise grade managed office solution. As Turner’s India operations expanded, the company sought a workspace that could support operational flexibility, employee convenience, and future growth, while maintaining a strong corporate identity. Based on these requirements, Airoli was identified as a location offering connectivity, access to talent, and a growing business ecosystem.
    The managed office combines Turner’s emphasis on precision with WeWork India’s design thinking. Features include an open layout to encourage collaboration, height adjustable workstations, meeting rooms with frameless glass fronts, and a café area designed to function as a multi purpose event space for meetings, presentations, and internal gatherings.

    Santosh Martin, Chief Revenue Officer, WeWork India, said the rise in demand for managed offices reflects a shift in how enterprises view workspaces, moving from purely operational assets to strategic drivers of performance and culture. He said Turner’s journey from a small private office to a large customised managed workspace illustrates how enterprises are adopting flexible models that balance efficiency, identity, and scalability. He added that WeWork India focuses on creating environments that help large organisations support growth while prioritising people and culture.

    With this addition, WeWork India continues to expand its footprint among enterprise clients. In Mumbai, enterprise members account for 76 percent of its member base across sectors such as technology, finance, media, and management. Operating across eight cities with more than one lakh desks and a membership base comprising nearly 74 percent enterprises, WeWork India continues to position flexible workspaces as a core component of modern business infrastructure in India.
