Bhubaneswar, April 22, 2025 – ODM Educational Group has once again demonstrated its academic excellence with an exceptional performance by its students in the Joint Entrance Examination (JEE) Main 2025 (Session-II). The ODM educational group continues to uphold its reputation as a premier knowledge-grasping hub for engineering aspirants in Odisha.

A total of 9 students scored above the 99th percentile mark, showcasing the educational group’s consistent track record in producing top performers. Among the star performers, Sandeep Kumar Sahoo secured an impressive percentile of 99.94, while Dibyanshu Dibyajyoti Das and Gourav Das achieved percentiles of 99.805 and 99.757, respectively. Additionally, 17 students secured above 98 percentile, 29 students secured above 97 percentile, and 35 students got above 95 percentile, further highlighting the educational group’s remarkable performance.

Dr. Satyabrata Minaketan, Chairman of ODM Educational Group, expressed immense pride in the students’ achievements: “These results exemplify the dedication and hard work of both our students and faculty members. At ODM, the focus has always been on building a strong foundation through conceptual clarity rather than rote learning. The success of our students in JEE Main 2025 validates our teaching methodology and personalised approach to education.”

The JEE Main examination, conducted by the National Testing Agency (NTA), serves as the qualifying test for JEE Advanced, which is the gateway to admission in the prestigious Indian Institutes of Technology (IITs) and other premier engineering institutions across the country.

Mr. Swoyan Satyendu, COO of ODM Educational Group, highlighted ODM’s holistic approach: “Beyond academic excellence, ODM focuses on developing problem-solving skills and analytical thinking. The rigorous training program, combined with regular assessments and personalised feedback, ensures that students are well-prepared not just for competitive examinations but for future challenges in their professional careers.”

Parents attribute this success to the dedicated faculty and state-of-the-art infrastructure provided by ODM Educational Group. The educational group’s emphasis on regular mock tests, doubt-clearing sessions, and performance analytics has played a crucial role in preparing students for the competitive examination.

ODM’s consistent performance in national-level competitive examinations has established it as a trusted name in the educational landscape of Odisha. The educational group’s focus on concept-based learning rather than exam-oriented coaching has helped students build a strong foundation for their future academic pursuits.

For aspiring engineers seeking quality education and comprehensive preparation for competitive exams, the message is clear: grow with ODM, where excellence is not just an achievement, but a tradition.

School children after receiving aid from Jagadguru Kripalu Parishat

Jagadguru Kripalu Parishat (JKP) continues to emerge as a source of hope for the underprivileged through its ongoing humanitarian initiatives. The distribution of relief materials by the organisation serves not only as a lifeline for those in need but also reinforces the feeling that their everyday struggles are seen and acknowledged.

At sacred sites such as Prem Mandir in Vrindavan, Bhakti Mandir in Shri Kripalu Dham Mangarh, and Kirti Mandir in Barsana, JKP regularly organises large-scale service events. These initiatives provide essential materials to the needy while also uplifting their spirits by showing them that they are not alone.

This latest distribution drive benefitted around 20,000 individuals. It was made possible through the leadership of the Parishat’s Presidents — Sushri Dr. Shyama Tripathi Ji and Sushri Dr. Krishna Tripathi Ji — who, inspired by the ideals of their father, the fifth original Jagadguru Shri Kripalu Ji Maharaj, and their elder sister Sushri Dr. Vishakha Tripathi Ji, are continuing to expand JKP’s welfare initiatives.

Speaking on the occasion, Sushri Dr. Shyama Tripathi Ji highlighted that the institution’s mission is the all-round upliftment of society. “Following the principles laid down by Jagadguru Shri Kripalu Ji Maharaj, we are committed to ensuring that the residents of Braj are not deprived of quality education, healthcare, or other essential services due to lack of resources,” she said.

April 17, 2025 – Prem Mandir, Vrindavan: Educational Kits Distributed to 5,000 Students

On April 17, 2025, a special service event was held at the premises of Prem Mandir in Vrindavan, where JKP distributed educational supplies to 5,000 underprivileged students. Each child received a school bag, tiffin box, water bottle, stationery, and other learning essentials.

This initiative went beyond material support — it instilled a sense of encouragement and confidence among the children, motivating them to pursue their education with renewed enthusiasm.

April 11, 2025 – Kirti Mandir, Barsana: 6,000 Students Receive School Supplies

Just days earlier, on April 11, 2025, another service programme was conducted at the sacred Rangeeli Mahal in Barsana. During this event, JKP provided 6,000 schoolchildren with school bags containing eight notebooks, a geometry box, pens, pencils, erasers, sharpeners, and a tiffin box.

This outreach aimed to reach children in communities where education still faces significant hurdles. By providing necessary school materials, the initiative not only met practical needs but also encouraged school attendance and interest in learning.

April 3, 2025 – Shri Kripalu Dham, Mangarh: Household Items Distributed to 7,800 People

JKP’s outreach extends beyond students, reaching rural communities in need of daily necessities. On April 3, 2025, at Shri Kripalu Dham in Mangarh, 7,800 underprivileged individuals received household supplies including groceries, daily-use items, and basic necessities.

This event was part of JKP’s broader effort to uplift rural populations and help them lead dignified lives with greater ease and self-respect.

Jagadguru Kripalu Parishat’s Presidents — Sushri Dr. Shyama Tripathi Ji and Sushri Dr. Krishna Tripathi Ji

Service Initiatives Guided by the Jagadguru Kripalu Parishat Presidents

What makes these programmes truly unique is that they are inspired by Jagadguru Shri Kripalu Ji Maharaj and carried forward with devotion by his daughters and JKP Presidents — Sushri Dr. Shyama Tripathi Ji and Sushri Dr. Krishna Tripathi Ji. Their approach goes beyond distribution — it is filled with warmth, compassion, and a deep sense of connection.

Through its consistent efforts, Jagadguru Kripalu Parishat continues to play a vital role in uniting society, empowering the poor, and strengthening the values of charity and empathy. These service events are not only a boon for the people of Braj but also serve as an inspiration for the entire nation.

There are countless children who dream of attending school but are held back by the lack of basic resources. Initiatives like these help bridge that gap and bring those dreams closer to reality.

The Spirit of Service at Jagadguru Kripalu Parishat

Jagadguru Kripalu Parishat is not only a centre for devotion and spiritual practice but also a distinguished name in the field of social service. 

The organisation routinely undertakes initiatives aimed at supporting the poor, elderly, differently-abled, students, and other disadvantaged groups. Whether it’s food distribution, providing clothing, offering medical aid, or supplying educational materials, the mission of every initiative remains the same: Sarve Bhavantu Sukhinah i.e. May all be happy.

Commodity trading is an exciting and potentially profitable way to invest in commodities like raw materials such as metals, energy, and agricultural products. It offers traders opportunities to hedge risks, speculate on price movements, and diversify their portfolios.

Unlike stocks, commodities are influenced by global supply and demand, weather conditions, and geopolitical events. If you are new to commodity trading, an essential commodity recommendation can help you navigate the market efficiently. Understanding strategies, risks, and trading methods will give you an edge in this dynamic space.

What is the Commodity Market?

A commodity market is a platform for buying and selling raw materials and primary goods. It is broadly divided into two categories:

Spot Market: Physical commodities are traded, and ownership is transferred upon purchase.

Futures & Options (F&O) Market: Financial contracts are used to trade commodities without direct physical ownership.

In India, major exchanges like the Multi Commodity Exchange (MCX) and National Commodity & Derivatives Exchange (NCDEX) facilitate trading in various commodities, including metals, energy products, and agricultural goods.

How to Start Commodity Trading?

Starting in commodity trading requires a step-by-step approach to ensure smooth transactions and profitable investments.

1. Open a Trading and Demat Account

To trade in commodities, you need to register with a broker who provides access to MCX or NCDEX. While spot trading does not require a demat account app, you will need one if you plan to invest in commodity-based ETFs or mutual funds. A Demat account stores your investments in electronic format, ensuring easy tracking and management.

2. Understand Market Dynamics

Commodity prices are affected by multiple factors such as:

Global demand and supply: A sudden shortage or surplus can cause price fluctuations.

Economic conditions: Inflation, interest rates, and geopolitical events impact commodity prices.

Seasonal changes: Agricultural commodities are particularly affected by weather conditions and harvest cycles.

3. Choose the Right Commodities

New traders should begin with well-known commodities like gold, silver, crude oil, or wheat. These commodities have high liquidity, making it easier to enter and exit positions. Advanced traders can explore niche markets such as base metals, natural gas, and industrial commodities.

4. Learn About Futures & Options

Most commodity trading happens through F&O contracts. A futures contract is an agreement to buy or sell a commodity at a predetermined price on a specific date. An options contract gives you the right (but not the obligation) to buy or sell commodities at a future date. These contracts help investors hedge against price volatility.

5. Use Market Indicators for Analysis

A crucial part of commodity trading is research and analysis. Investors rely on technical indicators such as moving averages, Bollinger Bands, and RSI (Relative Strength Index) to predict price movements. Sentiment indicators like the market mood indexalso help assess whether traders are bullish or bearish.

Commodity Trading Strategies

A successful trader does not rely on luck but follows well-planned strategies to navigate market fluctuations.

1. Hedging Strategy

Hedging is used by businesses and investors to protect against unfavourable price changes. For example, a jeweller might buy gold futures to lock in prices and avoid potential cost hikes.

2. Speculative Trading

Speculators aim to profit from short-term price movements. This approach requires deep market knowledge and a risk-taking mindset. A trader might buy crude oil futures if they anticipate an increase in global demand.

3. Arbitrage Trading

This strategy involves exploiting price differences between two markets. Traders buy commodities at a lower price in one market and sell them at a higher price in another.

4. Seasonal Trading

Many commodities follow seasonal trends. For instance, wheat prices may drop during the harvest season and rise later due to storage and transportation costs. Traders take advantage of these predictable patterns.

5. Trend Following Strategy

In this strategy, traders follow established trends in the market. If gold prices have been rising steadily, trend traders continue buying until indicators suggest a reversal.

Risks Involved in Commodity Trading

While commodity trading offers lucrative opportunities, it also comes with risks that investors must be aware of.

1. High Market Volatility

Commodities are subject to extreme price fluctuations due to global events, geopolitical tensions, and economic changes. Traders need a well-planned risk management strategy to protect their investments.

2. Leverage Risks

Commodity trading allows traders to use leverage, meaning they can trade with more money than they have in their accounts. While this can amplify profits, it also increases potential losses.

3. Regulatory and Political Risks

Government policies and regulations can impact commodity prices. For example, changes in export policies for agricultural commodities can lead to unexpected price movements.

4. Liquidity Risk

Some commodities have lower liquidity than others, making it harder to buy or sell them at the desired price. Traders should focus on commodities with high trading volumes to avoid this risk.

5. Storage and Quality Issues

For investors who trade in physical commodities, storage and quality control can be challenging. Spoilage, theft, and transportation costs can impact profits.

How to Mitigate Risks in Commodity Trading?

Diversify Investments: Do not invest all your capital in a single commodity. Spread your investments across different asset classes.

Set Stop-Loss Orders: To protect your investments from heavy losses, use stop-loss orders that automatically sell a commodity when prices drop beyond a set limit.

Keep Track of Global Events: Political instability, natural disasters, and economic reports can influence commodity prices. Stay informed to make better trading decisions.

Practice Paper Trading: Beginners should use virtual trading platforms to practice strategies before investing real money.

Conclusion

Commodity trading offers great investment potential with the right knowledge, strategy, and risk management. Understanding market fundamentals is key to hedging risks, speculating, or diversifying. Informed decisions and research help traders navigate the market successfully.

If you are looking for a seamless commodity trading experience, open demat account with HDFC Sky. This platform offers advanced trading tools, real-time market data, and expert insights to help you make informed decisions.

Comprehensive Energy Audits Backed by Technology

An energy audit by Elion is far more than just a look at the electricity bill. Their process is grounded in engineering expertise and the use of modern diagnostic tools. Elion’s engineers and auditors begin by assessing power usage across key systems like HVAC (Heating, Ventilation, and Air Conditioning), lighting, pumps, motors, compressors, and other utilities. Using advanced tools such as thermal imaging cameras, power analyzers, and data loggers, they collect real-time energy data over extended periods to detect patterns, inefficiencies, and wastage.

But the true value lies in their actionable insights. The audit culminates in a detailed report outlining energy-saving recommendations—ranging from simple behavior changes and system tuning to strategic upgrades like installing VFDs, LED lighting, or energy-efficient equipment. These recommendations are prioritized based on feasibility, payback period, and impact.

Many of Elion’s clients have reported up to 30% savings in energy costs within just 6–12 months of implementing the suggestions. For organizations dealing with razor-thin margins, these savings translate directly into improved profitability and long-term sustainability.

Aligning with National and Global Standards

Beyond the immediate cost benefits, Elion’s services help clients meet the requirements of the Energy Conservation Act, 2001, and align with Bureau of Energy Efficiency (BEE) norms. This is especially crucial as regulatory bodies now demand regular energy audits and performance reporting.

In addition, Elion supports clients in their carbon footprint assessments, helping them calculate, report, and reduce greenhouse gas emissions. They also offer green building consulting for companies aspiring for LEED, IGBC, or GRIHA certifications—positioning clients as responsible and future-ready businesses.

A Strategic Advantage in a Sustainable Future

“Energy efficiency is no longer a luxury—it’s a necessity,” states Kanishk Khanna, Director of Elion Technologies. “Our mission is to help businesses reduce their environmental impact while improving their bottom line. We believe sustainability and profitability go hand in hand.”

As ESG (Environmental, Social, and Governance) frameworks gain momentum, companies that invest in sustainability stand to gain not only in public perception but also in long-term resilience and competitiveness. Elion Technologies is enabling this shift—making industries greener, smarter, and more future-ready.

Hyderabad, April 22, 2025 – Malla Reddy Narayana Hospital, Hyderabad is a premier cancer care centre in Telangana, announced a remarkable medical achievement: the successful treatment of a rare case of Primary Peritoneal Ewing’s Sarcoma using an advanced procedure involving Cytoreductive Surgery (CRS) followed by Hypothermic Intraperitoneal Chemotherapy (HIPEC).

The diagnosis and subsequent treatment required a high level of expertise and precision, provided by a multidisciplinary oncology team led by Dr. Harish Dara, Senior Consultant – Surgical Oncology.

The surgical team undertook a challenging 16-hour procedure, which included complete tumor debulking followed by the direct infusion of heated chemotherapy into the abdominal cavity—a technique known as HIPEC. This innovative method is designed to eradicate any residual microscopic cancer cells, enhance chemotherapy absorption, and minimize damage to healthy tissues.

HIPEC, now available at Malla Reddy Narayana Cancer Hospital, represents a significant advancement in the treatment of abdominal cancers such as ovarian, colorectal, gastric cancers, pseudomyxoma peritonei, mesothelioma, and certain rare sarcomas. Unlike conventional chemotherapy, HIPEC is delivered intra-operatively at elevated temperatures, significantly improving clinical outcomes.

This successful case exemplifies the hospital’s ability to manage rare and complex oncological conditions through advanced medical technology, surgical expertise, and a patient-centric approach.

Gurugram, India, 22 April 2025 — As India’s digital economy accelerates, projected to contribute more than 20% of the nation’s GDP by 2026, KIT Global is playing a vital role in helping businesses navigate this transformation through AI-driven marketing technology. With over 900 million internet users expected by 2025, driven largely by rural expansion and mobile adoption, India is experiencing a digital shift that is redefining its economic landscape.

KIT Global supports small and medium-sized businesses (SMBs) and high-growth sectors by offering affordable, data-driven marketing solutions that help overcome common barriers such as limited budgets, lack of digital expertise, and underutilized consumer data.

“India’s swift digital transformation presents both vast opportunities and significant challenges for businesses,” said Pritesh Mohite, Chief Revenue Officer for KIT Global India. “Our mission is to provide scalable, cost-effective marketing tools that empower businesses to effectively engage with their audiences and thrive in the digital marketplace.”

India’s e-commerce sector, projected to reach $350 billion by 2030, is being fueled by the rise in online shopping, digital payments and a tech-savvy consumer base. Fintech continues its global rise, with India accounting for 46% of the world’s real-time digital payment transactions in 2023. KIT Global enables companies in these sectors to target and personalize their customer engagement using AI and advanced analytics.

The digital healthcare market is also on the rise, expected to reach $37 billion by 2030 as Healthcare and digital health services become more mainstream. In education, India’s EdTech sector revenue is growing at a compound annual growth rate of 25%, driven by demand for online learning.
