  • Value creation takes centre stage as private equity leaders outline India buyouts outlook at IVCA Summit 2026

    Amit Dalmia of Blackstone, Ashish Kotecha of Bain Capital, Parampreet Singh Bhasin of ChrysCapital, and moderator Anurag Gupta of EY Parthenon share perspectives on execution, governance, and exit readiness

    Mumbai, 10 February 2026: Senior leaders from India’s private equity ecosystem highlighted how structured value creation strategies are becoming central to buyouts as the market matures, during a panel discussion at the IVCA Buyouts Summit 2026.
    The session, titled Value Creation Playbook for Indian Buyouts, brought together Amit Dalmia, Senior Managing Director at Blackstone; Ashish Kotecha, Partner at Bain Capital; Parampreet Singh Bhasin, Managing Director and Head of Enhancin Portfolio Value Creation at ChrysCapital; and Anurag Gupta, Leader at EY Parthenon India, who moderated the discussion. The panel examined how private equity firms are adapting their operating models across the full buyout lifecycle, from deal execution and operational improvement to exit preparation.

    Amit Dalmia said Blackstone’s focus on business building has shaped its control oriented investment approach, enabling the firm to take active ownership positions in high quality companies. He said that over the past decade Blackstone has completed more than 40 control investments across Asia within its private equity business, with India emerging as one of its strongest markets globally. He added that founders and management teams are increasingly comfortable partnering with private equity firms that bring operational depth, management expertise, and a long term perspective that goes beyond capital infusion.

    Ashish Kotecha said disciplined value creation frameworks and early alignment with management teams have become critical to successful buyouts. He noted that Bain Capital’s evolution from minority investments to control transactions has been supported by embedding dedicated portfolio teams within companies. He said value creation begins from the outset, with structured planning, continuous refinement of strategy, and close coordination between investors and management throughout the investment cycle.

    Parampreet Singh Bhasin spoke about the evolution of operating models within Indian private equity and the increasing emphasis on execution and shared risk taking in buyouts. He said ChrysCapital built its operating capabilities nearly a decade ago to strengthen value creation efforts, with a focus on operational diligence, leadership development, and identifying non traditional growth levers. He added that a buyout mindset requires investors to act as primary risk takers while working closely with management teams to unlock potential.
    Anurag Gupta said buyouts have enabled private equity firms in India to move beyond a growth capital role and engage more deeply in governance, leadership development, and long term value creation. He said the shift towards buyouts has allowed investors to introduce stronger corporate governance practices, address talent and leadership needs, leverage technology, and execute clearly defined value creation plans from the beginning of the investment.

    The panel also discussed the importance of talent development, governance structures, and repeatable processes in improving portfolio company performance. Speakers noted that as deal complexity increases and investment horizons lengthen, private equity firms are placing greater emphasis on operational discipline and execution rigour to deliver outcomes for investors and stakeholders.
    The discussion concluded with reflections on how India’s buyouts landscape is evolving, with panelists agreeing that sustainable growth and successful exits increasingly depend on coordinated interventions across operations, governance, and digital capability.

  • Wellness B’zaar Brings Vascular Health Into Focus Through FLOW Longevity Dialogue

    Puja Khan, Co Founder of Wellness B’zaar, and Dr Arjun Reddy, Founder of RIVEA Vascular Institute, lead a multidisciplinary discussion on circulation and preventive ageing

    Wellness B’zaar hosted FLOW – The Longevity Dialogue, a thought leadership gathering that examined vascular health and circulation as central pillars of healthy ageing. Held on 7 February 2026 at Quorum Club in Hyderabad, the event was organised in collaboration with RIVEA Vascular Institute and brought together medical experts and preventive health advocates for an interdisciplinary exchange on long term wellbeing.
    Designed as an intimate fireside and panel led conversation, the dialogue moved beyond a symptom focused understanding of ageing. Discussions reframed longevity through the lens of blood flow, highlighting how vascular health influences brain function, organ vitality, mobility, metabolic balance, and quality of life well before the onset of disease.

    A central segment of the evening was a fireside conversation moderated by Puja Khan, Co Founder of Wellness B’zaar, with Arjun Reddy, Founder of RIVEA Vascular Institute. The discussion focused on why vascular health is frequently overlooked in preventive care and the importance of early screening and intervention.
    “Vascular changes begin long before symptoms appear, often affecting multiple organs silently. Early, image guided screening allows us to identify risks sooner and intervene before damage becomes irreversible,” said Dr Arjun Reddy.

    The panel discussion, moderated by Kavitha Mantha, expanded the conversation across metabolic, cardiac, and regenerative health, positioning circulation as a unifying foundation for preventive longevity.
    “Many conditions, from cardiac disease and diabetic complications to fibroids and prostate enlargement, have a vascular dimension. A vascular first, image guided approach can prevent complications and significantly reduce the need for surgery,” Dr Arjun Reddy added.

    Samatha Tulla, Co Founder of PMX Health, highlighted the role of early biomarkers in preventive care. “Metabolic stress and vascular dysfunction often appear well before clinical symptoms. Precision medicine allows us to track these signals early and shift healthcare from reactive treatment to preventive longevity,” she said.
    The dialogue also explored emerging therapies. Harikiran Chekuri, Founder of Redefine Hair, spoke about advances in regenerative medicine, noting, “Research around peptides and regenerative therapies is opening new possibilities in vascular repair, endothelial health, and recovery focused interventions.”

    Adding a cardiac perspective, Rahul Kongara, cardiologist and preventive heart health specialist, said, “Circulation is fundamental to long term cardiac health. Many heart conditions are preceded by years of silent vascular dysfunction, which is why early screening, lifestyle intervention, and preventive care are critical to reducing future risk.”
    The session concluded with a shared emphasis on awareness, early intervention, and interdisciplinary care. Organisers noted that longevity is shaped long before disease onset and that protecting vascular health through timely screening and lifestyle changes can redefine how individuals age.
    FLOW – The Longevity Dialogue reinforced the importance of innovation led, prevention focused healthcare models that place circulation at the centre of long term wellbeing.

  • TVS Electronics Frames Banking Infrastructure Around Operational Continuity

    C Balaji, Vice President and Chief Business Officer for Products and Solutions Group at TVS Electronics, discusses how infrastructure choices are shaping day to day banking operations

    As banking operations across India grow in scale and complexity, infrastructure reliability has emerged as a defining factor in how financial institutions deliver consistent service. With rising transaction volumes, expanding digital channels, and increasing dependence on uninterrupted systems, banks are placing renewed emphasis on technologies that support operational continuity rather than incremental upgrades.
    Within this context, TVS Electronics is focusing on infrastructure solutions designed to keep banking operations stable, secure, and available across diverse operating environments. The company’s Made in India hardware portfolio for the BFSI sector is positioned around reducing operational friction, maintaining uptime, and supporting predictable performance across branches, self service points, and field operations.

    In banking environments where accuracy and trust are critical, infrastructure reliability directly affects both staff productivity and customer experience. TVS Electronics’ approach centres on simplifying operational workflows while ensuring systems perform consistently under high volume conditions, enabling banks to manage daily activity without compromising on speed or control.
    Commenting on the shift in priorities, C Balaji, Vice President and Chief Business Officer for the Products and Solutions Group at TVS Electronics, said, “Banking today demands systems that are secure, resilient, fast, accurate, and always available. From counterfeit detection to secure printing, from asset tracking to always on IT support, TVSE strengthens every layer of BFSI operations. Our focus is on building infrastructure that allows banks to operate reliably across branches and digital platforms while scaling with confidence.”

    Authentication and transaction integrity remain central to operational stability. TVS Electronics supports these requirements through biometric fingerprint readers that integrate into banking and payment workflows, helping institutions verify identity accurately and maintain compliance without adding complexity for frontline staff.
    Despite the growth of digital payments, cash handling continues to be a core operational function. TVS Electronics provides cash management systems that enable accurate note counting and counterfeit detection using layered validation methods.

    At the same time, digital payment infrastructure must operate at scale without interruption. TVS Electronics’ POS terminals, sound boxes, and integrated payment devices are designed to support high transaction throughput reliably, enabling smoother settlements and predictable day to day performance for banks and merchants.
    Document processing remains an essential part of branch operations. Specialty printers from TVS Electronics are engineered for consistent and compliant printing of passbooks, cheques, statements, and receipts, supporting accuracy where errors can disrupt customer service and internal controls.

    As banks expand access through self service and unattended channels, TVS Electronics’ kiosk solutions support functions such as account enquiries, bill payments, form submissions, and service requests. Designed for continuous use, these systems help extend banking availability while managing operational load without increasing physical branch footprint.
    Operational visibility is further supported through barcode scanners, label printers, handheld terminals, and durable peripherals built for sustained use in high volume banking environments. These tools support asset tracking, document movement, and branch level accountability, reducing manual intervention and downtime.

    TVS Electronics also supports financial inclusion efforts through hardware designed for Business Correspondent operations in tier three, tier four, and rural regions. Portable all in one tablets and field ready devices are built to perform reliably in environments with limited infrastructure, supported by the company’s nationwide service network.

    To maintain continuity across distributed branch networks, TVSE Aikya provides unified infrastructure management, enabling monitoring, remote issue resolution, and proactive maintenance. This helps reduce operational strain on branch teams while supporting consistent system performance.

    With a pan India sales and service presence across more than 200 districts and coverage extending to over 19,000 pincodes, TVS Electronics supports deployment and ongoing maintenance at scale. This reach enables banks to maintain infrastructure reliability across geographies where downtime can directly affect customer trust.
    Together, these capabilities reflect a growing emphasis on infrastructure that supports continuity, control, and resilience as banking operations evolve across India.

  • Superb Realty Places Indoor Health at the Centre of Office Development in Mumbai

    Shilpin Tater, Managing Director, Superb Realty, discusses how air quality concerns are reshaping design priorities for modern workplaces

    As air quality levels in Mumbai continue to remain under pressure, the way office buildings are planned and evaluated is undergoing a quiet but meaningful transformation. Increasingly, occupiers are looking beyond conventional parameters such as location, façade, or amenity lists, and focusing instead on how workspaces support health, efficiency, and long term operational performance in dense urban condition.
    Against this backdrop, Superb Realty has introduced Superb Altura, its flagship mixed use commercial development located at the Amar Mahal junction in the Chembur Ghatkopar corridor. Conceived as a Grade A office tower, the project reflects a development approach where indoor health, system intelligence, and resilience are treated as core design considerations rather than supplementary features.

    Unlike traditional office developments built around static specifications, the project integrates advanced building systems that continuously monitor and manage indoor environments. Energy usage, indoor air quality, HVAC performance, access control, and safety systems operate within a unified digital framework, allowing the building to adapt dynamically to changing external and internal conditions.
    With indoor air quality increasingly becoming a priority for corporate decision makers, the development enables real time tracking of key air parameters, system driven alerts, and automated optimisation to support healthier work environments. Intelligent controls allow ventilation, temperature, and lighting to adjust in response to occupancy patterns and ambient conditions, balancing employee wellbeing with operational efficiency.

    The project has been designed with the objective of maintaining consistently low indoor AQI levels, setting a higher benchmark for healthy workspaces in high density urban markets.
    Commenting on the evolving expectations from commercial real estate, Shilpin Tater, Managing Director of Superb Realty, said, “Poor air quality is no longer a temporary or seasonal concern. It has become a permanent part of urban living. For developers today, the responsibility extends beyond constructing offices to creating environments that can actively support health, adapt over time, and perform reliably throughout the asset’s lifecycle.”

    From an operational standpoint, the integrated systems at Superb Altura are expected to deliver 15 to 25 percent energy optimisation through continuous performance monitoring and automation. Predictive maintenance capabilities are also designed to reduce unplanned downtime by up to 30 percent, supporting stronger asset reliability and long term efficiency.
    The development features large and efficient floor plates, three side open frontage, and ample daylight penetration. These are complemented by terrace lounges, breakout zones, and select balcony offices. A mixed use planning approach incorporating curated retail and food and beverage offerings is intended to enhance daily user experience while supporting long term commercial viability.
    From an investment perspective, the project’s scalable and adaptable systems are designed to remain aligned with evolving sustainability benchmarks, regulatory frameworks, and occupier expectations, helping mitigate future retrofit risk and support value preservation.
    With GRIHA aligned sustainability measures including solar power for common areas, rainwater harvesting, wastewater recycling, and energy efficient systems, Superb Altura reflects Superb Realty’s focus on performance led ESG outcomes grounded in measurable impact rather than checklist compliance.
    As Mumbai continues to navigate complex urban challenges, the project signals a broader shift in office development where buildings are expected to actively contribute to health, efficiency, and resilience over the long term.

  • Hearing Restored Through Rare Bilateral Cochlear Implant Procedure at MGM Healthcare

    Dr Sanjeev Mohanty, Senior Consultant and Head of ENT and Head and Neck Surgery at MGM Healthcare, says the rare procedure allows immediate auditory stimulation and faster rehabilitation for patients with auditory neuropathy

    MGM Healthcare has successfully carried out a rare and first of its kind medical procedure involving simultaneous bilateral cochlear implantation with immediate activation, restoring hearing for a 35 year old software professional from Chennai. The patient had experienced progressive hearing loss following a COVID 19 infection and was diagnosed with Auditory Neuropathy Spectrum Disorder, a condition in which sound enters the inner ear normally but fails to transmit clearly from the cochlea to the brain.
    According to the treating team, this is the first documented global case where bilateral cochlear implants were placed and activated during the same surgical procedure, unlike conventional protocols where implant activation is delayed by several days or weeks after surgery.

    The patient, a mother of two and a manager at a multinational information technology company, relied extensively on virtual meetings and digital communication while working from home. After contracting COVID 19 a few years ago, she experienced gradual hearing deterioration, which progressed rapidly over the past six months to complete hearing loss in both ears. This significantly affected her professional responsibilities and quality of life.
    A detailed diagnostic evaluation was conducted, including audiological assessments, CT scans, and MRI imaging of the brain and temporal bones. Based on these findings, she was diagnosed with Auditory Neuropathy Spectrum Disorder, also known as auditory dys synchrony. In this condition, although sound reaches the inner ear, the signals from the cochlea do not reach the brain in a coordinated manner, resulting in severe difficulty in understanding speech.

    The patient underwent simultaneous bilateral cochlear implantation, during which implants were placed in both ears in a single surgery, followed by immediate intraoperative activation. Cochlear implants bypass damaged inner ear cells and directly stimulate the auditory nerve, enabling sound perception. The surgery lasted approximately five to six hours, and the patient was discharged within 48 hours of the procedure. With preserved speech and cognitive abilities, doctors expect significant improvement in speech comprehension and functional hearing within two to three months.
    The surgery was led by Sanjeev Mohanty, Senior Consultant and Head of ENT and Head and Neck Surgery at MGM Healthcare, and was supported by a multidisciplinary team comprising audiologists, anaesthesiologists, speech and auditory verbal therapists, and specialised nursing staff.

    Commenting on the procedure, Dr Mohanty said, “Based on available literature, this is the first documented global case of simultaneous bilateral cochlear implantation with immediate switch on in a patient with Auditory Neuropathy Spectrum Disorder. Early activation allows immediate auditory stimulation and supports faster rehabilitation. The procedure was performed using advanced surgical technologies including Smart Navigation guidance for real time precision, high resolution neurosurgical microscopes for enhanced visualisation, continuous facial nerve monitoring for safety, and minimal drilling techniques to reduce tissue trauma and support quicker recovery.”
    Auditory Neuropathy Spectrum Disorder accounts for nearly five percent of non age related hearing loss cases in India. While the exact cause is often unclear, the condition has been associated with immune mediated and post viral mechanisms, including those observed following COVID 19 infection.
