Parimatch Sports, a high-quality sportswear brand inspired by the world’s top athletes, has hosted a charity campaign dedicated to supporting environmental initiatives. The event, held under the slogan “Clean the shore. Play more,” reflects the brand’s commitment to sustainability and active lifestyles. It extends the spirit of the tournament beyond sports, channeling its energy into meaningful engagement.

Parimatch Sports and Sunil Narine Bring “Game of Change” to Chennai

The event brought together volunteers and local  influencers around a simple but powerful idea: caring for the planet is not abstract. Shoulder to shoulder, metre by metre, they transformed a polluted space into a place where people can once again gather, play, and breathe freely. What began as a clean-up quickly became a shared experience of unity and collective contribution.

The highlight of the day came with the appearance of cricket star and Parimatch Sports brand ambassador Sunil Narine. After the clean-up was completed, participants joined him for a game of cricket on the newly restored beach. The moment was filled with joy and freedom, along with a powerful sense that collective effort can create visible change.

“At Parimatch Sports, we believe that everything in this world is connected — people, nature, and sport. Everyone can make the world a better place, regardless of who they are or where they come from. “Game of Change” is about action that restores meaning to simple things and brings us closer to the world we want to live in,” said the Parimatch Sports Press Office.

“It was incredible to see people come together for one shared goal,” commented Sunil Narine. “Moments like this show that sport is not limited to the game itself. It is energy that can transform spaces and people’s relationship with the world around them. Playing cricket on a beach that had been littered and neglected just hours earlier made it a truly special moment.”

India continues to experience significant environmental pressure, particularly in relation to plastic waste and coastal pollution. Beaches in major cities, including Chennai, are often covered with large volumes of waste, affecting both local communities and marine life. Through initiatives like “Game of Change,” Parimatch Sports aims to turn awareness into action — and action into visible impact.

The event is part of Parimatch Sports’ ongoing commitment to community engagement and environmental responsibility through real-world initiatives. The brand regularly launches programmes that demonstrate how meaningful change can be driven through collective effort. With “Game of Change,” the brand invites everyone to be part of something bigger — to take action, become a creator of change, and experience the game in a new way.

Fans can relive the activation across Parimatch Sports’ social media channels and be inspired by the experience, which reflects how small collective actions can lead to meaningful change and create cleaner, more welcoming spaces for everyone.

For most people, taking a personal loan starts with one big question: “How much can I actually borrow?” To help individuals make more informed financial decisions, Bajaj Finance offers a personal loan eligibility calculator that provides an instant estimate of loan eligibility based on a few basic financial details.

Bajaj Finance Personal Loan

The tool enables prospective borrowers to estimate the loan amount they may qualify for before starting the application process. This helps users plan their finances more effectively and choose a loan amount that fits their repayment capacity.

What is the Bajaj Finance Personal Loan eligibility calculator?

The Bajaj Finance Personal Loan Eligibility Calculator is a free online tool that helps individuals understand how much they may qualify for — based on their financial profile — before starting the application process.

Users simply enter a few key details:

1. Monthly income

2. Monthly expenses

3. City of residence

4. Date of birth

Within seconds, the calculator returns an estimated eligible loan amount. This gives borrowers the confidence to choose a loan amount and repayment tenure that genuinely fits their budget — rather than guessing.

Consider a marketing executive in Mumbai earning Rs. 75,000 per month with fixed monthly expenses of Rs. 35,000. A quick check on the Bajaj Finance Personal Loan Eligibility Calculator reveals they may qualify for up to Rs. 20 lakh, helping them make a more informed borrowing decision before proceeding with an application.

Bajaj Finance Personal Loan: Key features at a glance

Bajaj Finance offers a collateral-free personal loan with features designed to serve a wide range of financial needs — from planned expenses like home renovation and education, to urgent requirements like medical treatment or debt consolidation.

Here’s what eligible borrowers can expect:

The interest rate offered to any individual depends on factors such as income level, employment type, credit score, and overall repayment capacity.

What’s new: Repayment tenure extended to 108 months

One of the standout updates to the Bajaj Finance Personal Loan is the extended repayment tenure — now stretching up to 108 months (9 years).

This is a meaningful development for borrowers who need higher loan amounts but want to keep their monthly EMIs manageable. A longer tenure spreads the repayment across more months, reducing the financial strain on a household’s monthly budget.

For example, a borrower taking a Rs. 10 lakh loan at 14% per annum interest would pay considerably lower monthly EMIs over 108 months compared to a 36-month tenure — though it’s worth noting that a longer tenure also means paying more in total interest over time.

Using the eligibility calculator alongside an EMI calculator can help borrowers find the right balance between EMI affordability and total interest outgo.

Who can benefit from the eligibility calculator?

The tool is designed for anyone who wants to borrow responsibly. Some common use cases include:

1. Homeowners planning renovation or repair projects

2. Parents financing their child’s higher education

3. Professionals seeking funds for skill development or certification

4. Individuals managing medical emergencies or unplanned expenses

5. Borrowers looking to consolidate multiple debts into a single, structured loan

The calculator is especially useful for first-time borrowers who may be unfamiliar with how income and expense ratios affect loan eligibility.

How to apply for the Bajaj Finance Personal Loan

The personal loan application process is simple and can be completed online in just a few minutes:

1. Applicants can begin by visiting the Bajaj Finance website and navigating to the Personal Loan page.

2. They are required to enter their desired loan amount and preferred repayment tenure.

3. Once the details are filled in, applicants can click on “CHECK LOAN OFFER” to proceed.

4. They will then need to provide their personal, financial, and employment details as prompted.

5. Applicants can review the available loan offer presented to them based on their profile.

6. They are then required to complete their KYC verification as part of the process.

7. Bank account details must be verified at this stage to facilitate disbursal.

8. Finally, applicants can submit their application to complete the process.

Understanding the interest rate

The Bajaj Finance Personal Loan interest rate ranges from 10% to 30% per annum. The actual rate offered to an applicant may vary depending on factors such as:

1. Credit score and credit history

2. Monthly income and employment stability

3. Existing financial obligations

4. Loan amount and repayment tenure selected

Borrowers are advised to check their credit report before applying, as a strong credit profile can result in more favourable terms.

Why planning before borrowing matters

It is important to assess loan affordability before applying. Borrowing more than one can comfortably repay can lead to missed EMIs, credit score damage, and long-term financial stress.

Tools such as the Bajaj Finance Personal Loan Eligibility Calculator can help borrowers estimate their eligibility in advance, providing greater clarity during the decision-making process. Understanding potential eligibility before applying allows individuals to set realistic expectations, compare financing options, and plan repayments more effectively.

As personal loans continue to be a popular financing option for a wide range of needs, eligibility assessment tools can play an important role in helping borrowers make informed and responsible borrowing decisions.

*Terms and conditions apply.

*Disbursal timelines and loan eligibility are subject to lender assessment and document verification.

DAC Developers Pvt. Ltd. has inaugurated its Satellite Office on Old Mahabalipuram Road (OMR), strengthening its presence in one of Chennai’s fastest-growing residential and IT corridors.

DAC Developers and Yubi have successfully partnered across two transactions in Chennai, through which Yubi facilitated funding of INR 66 crore for the company. Building on this association, Yubi is now inclined to partner with DAC Developers through a proposed INR 250 crore platform over a one-year period to support land acquisition opportunities. The terms of the arrangement are currently being finalized and are expected to be formally executed shortly.

The occasion also marked the launch of DAC Cambridge, an English-themed residential development inspired by the architectural character and charm of Cambridge, England. Designed as a premium residential community, the project brings together distinctive architecture, landscaped open spaces, and thoughtfully planned living environments along Chennai’s IT corridor.

DAC’s presence on OMR is already well established.

Each of these projects carries the hallmark of what DAC stands for: transparent transactions, quality construction, and homes that are built with genuine care. The new satellite office consolidates this presence, giving homebuyers a single dedicated space to walk in, speak to the team, and make informed decisions — right here on OMR.

Adding to the momentum, DAC has announced that DAC Silicon Valley Phase 3 is set to launch soon, continuing the success of its much-loved villa community in Navalur. The company has also revealed that DAC Lords — its newest and highly anticipated upcoming project — will be launching shortly, further expanding DAC’s growing and trusted footprint on the corridor.

With a satellite office now anchoring its presence, two exciting launches on the horizon, and Cambridge raising the bar for what luxury living on OMR can look and feel like, DAC Developers is sending a clear signal to the city — the best of OMR is still ahead.

DesignCafe and HomeLane today announced that Co-founder Shezan Bhojani will be transitioning out of his operating role to pursue a new entrepreneurial venture.
 

DesignCafe enters this moment from a position of momentum. Since its integration with HomeLane, the business has grown approximately 30%, expanded its retail footprint by over 50%, from 15 to 23 stores in 18 months, compared to 15 stores built over its first nine years, and improved cost structures and profitability meaningfully. The business is on track to deliver 40% year-on-year growth in the current fiscal. These milestones further strengthen the company’s readiness for its next phase of growth and its long-term IPO ambitions.
 

Shezan Bhojani, Co-founder and CEO at DesignCafe
 

Shezan co-founded DesignCafe and shaped much of what it stands for today: a design-led brand with a strong national identity and a loyal customer base. That foundation powers what comes next. Looking ahead, DesignCafe plans to add 11 new stores in the current fiscal year, reflecting continued confidence in the market opportunity. The integration with HomeLane has strengthened both businesses and stands as a strong example of a well-executed partnership in the home interiors space.
 

As DesignCafe enters its next phase of growth, the company is well-positioned with a strong leadership bench and clear strategic direction. Gita Ramanan, Co-founder and CEO, will lead the business, ensuring continuity in vision, culture, and long-term strategy. She is joined by a seasoned leadership team: Anoop Krishnan (COO), who leads revenue realization and operations across markets, and Swati Santani (SVP), who drives product, catalogue and new growth initiatives. At the group level, HomeLane continues to be led by Srikanth Iyer and Tanuj Choudhry, further strengthening the combined leadership across both brands.
 

Commenting on the transition, Gita Ramanan said, “Shezan brought an explorer’s instinct to everything he touched, always pushing the horizon a little further, always asking what’s next. DesignCafe carries that DNA. As he steps into a new chapter, I’m choosing to stay and build on, because the opportunity ahead of us is real, and the team we’ve built is ready for it. And so am I.”
 

Srikanth Iyer, Co-founder & CEO, HomeLane, added, “The integration of DesignCafe and HomeLane has delivered strong results across growth, profitability, and scale, and is a testament to the strength of the combined platform. Shezan has played a key role in building DesignCafe into a category-defining brand, and we thank him for his contributions. With Gita and a strong operating leadership team in place, we are confident in the next phase of growth for DesignCafe and the broader group.”
 

Shezan Bhojani added, “Building DesignCafe has been one of the most meaningful journeys of my life. I’m proud of what we’ve created and the team that will take it forward. With Gita and the leadership team at the helm, and the strong momentum post integration with HomeLane, the company is well positioned for its next chapter and its imminent IPO.”
 

DesignCafe and HomeLane remain united in their commitment to redefining home interiors in India- through design, technology, and the quality of experience they deliver to every customer.

• Bisleri mobilises over 40,000 citizens through multiple initiatives across Mumbai, Pune, Nagpur and Goa

Bisleri International marked World Environment Day 2026 with a series of community-led initiatives across Maharashtra. Under its Bottles for Change programme for plastic waste management, Bisleri engaged citizens, educational institutions, corporates, local communities, and civil society organisations through awareness sessions, clean-up drives, collection initiatives, and public installations.

Experiential visit to Bisleri’s Resource Recovery and Sustainability Inspiration Centre, Mira Road, for students

On World Environment Day 2026, Bisleri installed ‘Wings of Change‘ – an artwork created using 2,000 used PET bottles at Carter Road, Mumbai, in collaboration with the Bhamla Foundation. The installation highlighted the importance of recycling and circularity in addressing the plastic waste challenge.

Bisleri conducted clean-up drives in Uttan Beach

Commenting on the occasion, Mr K. Ganesh, Director – Sustainability & Corporate Affairs, Bisleri International, said, “World Environment Day serves as a powerful reminder that meaningful environmental progress is only possible through collective action. Through Bottles for Change, we are continuously working with citizens, institutions, and communities to foster long-term behavioural change. From the ‘Wings of Change’ installation in Mumbai to awareness campaigns, collection drives, and experiential visits to our Material Recovery Facility, these initiatives reflect our commitment to creating impact at the grassroots and accelerating the transition towards a circular economy for plastic.”

Extensive door-to-door awareness sessions conducted across Thane, Navi Mumbai and Mira Road reached over 35,000 residents with messages on plastic segregation and recycling. To promote cleaner public spaces, awareness stalls at prominent spots on the Mira Road were set up. Awareness sessions were conducted at AB Goregaon School. Bisleri also facilitated guided experiential visits to the Resource Recovery and Sustainability Inspiration Centre at Mira Road, providing students with first-hand exposure to the journey of plastic waste from collection to recycling.

In Pune, Bisleri organised multiple awareness and collection initiatives in collaboration with corporates, educational institutions and local communities. Awareness stalls were set up at IIC Devi IT Park, Aai Garden in Dapodi, and the Pimpri-Chinchwad Football Ground, engaging over 4,500 participants. Additionally, plastic collection drives conducted with State Council of Educational Research and Training (SCERT) and other stakeholders resulted in collection of over 750 kilograms of plastic waste.

In Nagpur, community-focused awareness activities were conducted through door-to-door outreach programmes, encouraging citizens to adopt responsible plastic waste management practices. Additionally, a Bottles for Change stall at Walkers Street was set up to raise awareness about plastic segregation, recycling, and sustainable waste disposal. The activities collectively engaged over 1,500 citizens.

In Goa, two clean-up drives were organized in Panaji and Harvalem, engaging over 200 students and citizens.

These efforts are part of Bisleri’s ongoing Bottles for Change programme, which has reached over 10 million people across the country and continues to drive awareness on plastic segregation, collection, and recycling through sustained community engagement initiatives.

Bisleri International and Bhamla Foundation Co-created ‘Wings of Change,’ a unique art installation to mark World Environment Day 2026. Created from 2,000 used PET bottles and installed at Carter Road in Mumbai, Wings of Change demonstrates the practical applications of plastic recycling through artistic expression. Like its counterpart, ‘Binny the Bird’, which was unveiled last year, it reinforces the idea that used plastic can become a valuable resource rather than being discarded as waste. To strengthen engagement and raise awareness about environmental issues, Bisleri and the Bhamla Foundation also announced a one-year strategic collaboration to work together across a range of sustainability initiatives throughout the year.

Dr. Angelo George, CEO, Bisleri International, said, “World Environment Day is a reminder that sustainability is a continuous journey that requires collective action. Plastic, when disposed of responsibly, can become a valuable resource that can be recycled into useful items. Through our Bottles for Change initiative, we continue to work with communities, institutions, and civic bodies to build awareness around responsible plastic disposal and strengthen recycling systems. ‘Wings of Change’, created from 2,000 used Bisleri PET bottles in partnership with the Bhamla Foundation, is a powerful reminder about how small actions, when taken together, can create meaningful impact.”

Shri Jishnu Dev Varma, Governor of Maharashtra, felicitates Dr. Angelo George, CEO of Bisleri International

Asif Bhamla, Founder, Bhamla Foundation, said, “Art has the power to move people in ways words alone cannot. With Wings of Change, we invite every person who sees this installation to reflect on their own role in the plastic journey. Formalizing our collaboration with Bisleri into a year-long partnership is something we are truly excited about. Together, we hope to reach more communities, spark more conversations, and prove that environmental responsibility is an opportunity to build something beautiful.”

On-ground activations at the event reflected Bisleri’s holistic approach to sustainability. Benches crafted from recycled Bisleri bottle caps were placed across the venue, while attendees and dignitaries were gifted plant pots made from recycled plastic. Together with Wings of Change, they symbolizes that single piece of plastic can lead many lives when managed responsibly. As part of the Bottles for Change initiative, collection bins were placed across the venue to divert plastic waste from landfills and channel it for recycling. Trained volunteers engaged attendees on waste segregation practices, the inherent value of plastic waste, and how to upcycle it into useful, meaningful products.
