Bisleri International Pvt. Ltd., India’s leading packaged drinking water brand under its flagship sustainability initiative, Bottles for Change (BFC), implemented a comprehensive, end-to-end plastic waste management drive during the Puri Rath Yatra 2025, one of India’s most celebrated and high-footfall religious events. The drive was conducted in partnership with Puri’s Municipal Corporation and the District Administration. It focused on promoting responsible plastic use, collection, and recycling by deploying a community-centric approach.

As part of the drive, plastic collection bins were strategically placed at high-footfall areas along the Rath Yatra route to encourage pilgrims and visitors to dispose of plastic responsibly. The initiative also engaged Self-Help Group (SHG) members to facilitate on-ground segregation of plastic waste. All collected plastic was transported to a designated Material Recovery Facility (MRF) for sorting, processing, and subsequently to recycling facilities, thereby ensuring that no plastic waste ends up in landfills.

Commenting on this initiative, Mr K. Ganesh, Director – Sustainability & Corporate Affairs, Bisleri International Pvt. Ltd., said, “The Puri Rath Yatra presents a great opportunity to promote environmental responsibility. Through our Bottles for Change initiative, we are proud to support the Yatra by integrating sustainable practices ranging from bin placement and community engagement to material recovery and post-event clean-ups. Our efforts aim to ensure that the celebrations are both joyful and environmentally conscious.”

Additionally, to ensure cleanliness and raise awareness about environmental stewardship, Bisleri will also conduct two large-scale clean-up drives post the event in collaboration with students and citizen volunteers, reinforcing the values of shared civic responsibility and collective climate action.

The campaign at Puri is a part of Bisleri’s Bottles for Change footprint in Eastern India and vital in making plastic circularity a community-led movement. BFC initiative focuses on promoting plastic recycling, with Material Recovery Facilities (MRFs) playing a key role. Bisleri has established these MRFs across India, including in Harvalem (Goa) Tiruvallur Municipal Corporation and SRM University (Chennai), Ranthambore National Park (Sawai Madhapur), and K East Ward (Mumbai). These MRFs, along with the Bench of Dreams initiative, contribute significantly to building a circular economy by reducing the environmental impact of waste and fostering sustainable consumption patterns.

Sahi, the next-generation trading platform, announced today the launch of its Web trading terminal designed to cater to India’s rapidly growing community of high-frequency and professional retail traders seeking high-performance trading.

Sahi Founders – Dale Vaz and Manish Jain

Backed by Accel and Elevation Capital, Sahi is built for traders who demand performance, precision, and a seamless experience across devices. Founded by Dale Vaz (former CTO, Swiggy) and Manish Jain (former SVP, Kotak Securities), the platform has been reimagined to deliver a powerful multi-monitor setup that brings institutional-grade features to the hands of serious retail participants. The interface is designed entirely in-house, including proprietary charts built from the ground up to match the speed of the market and the traders pace.

India’s retail investor base has surged in recent years, with over 150 million demat accounts and a growing appetite for intraday and high-frequency trading. With more traders demanding institutional-grade tools and personalised setups, Sahi’s web terminal for desktop and laptop traders addresses this market shift head-on. A key differentiator lies in its deep personalisation-traders can design their workspaces, configure widgets, and run the interface seamlessly across multiple monitors and devices. This level of customisation empowers users to trade the way they think, not the way platforms prescribe.

The platform is designed to support high-intensity intraday strategies for Options and Stock trading, and includes advanced tools such as auto-trailing stop-loss, stop-loss/take-profit orders, and automatic large order slicing, ensuring risk is managed intelligently without compromising execution speed. Features such as real-time scanners, watchlists, and open interest analysis provide a rich layer of insight. At the same time, built-in keyboard shortcuts enable users to enter and exit positions with unparalleled speed and precision.

According to Dale Vaz, Co-founder and CEO of Sahi, “Retail traders today expect performance-grade tools without the complexity or cost of institutional platforms. Our Web Terminal is a response to that need; it combines intelligence, customizability, and speed into a workstation experience built ground-up for modern Indian traders.”
