Hotels, upscale dining establishments, and cafes in Delhi are gearing up to welcome the new year with precautionary measures in place after the national capital reported its first case of the new JN.1 Covid sub-variant. These venues are committed to ensuring a secure and pleasurable experience, prioritising sanitation and hygiene. As residents of the national capital get ready to welcome the new year, these establishments are focused on providing a safe environment.

On Wednesday, Delhi reported its first case of the COVID-19 sub-variant JN.1.

Health Minister Saurabh Bharadwaj, however, urges people not to panic. He conveyed that the city government has escalated Covid testing, conducting 636 tests on Wednesday.

In this scenario, the establishments are enforcing rigorous health protocols for their patrons.

Raasta owner Joy Singh, recalling the pandemic and its impact on the industry, said, “The emphasis is on creating a lavish celebration while ensuring the health and wellbeing of patrons.”

Singh mentioned that approximately 70 to 80 percent of restaurants in Delhi have already been reserved, and preparations for the restaurant celebrations are in full swing.

“We are emphasising sanitation and hygiene to ensure that safety protocols are in place for hosting 250 guests at once,” Singh said.

Reflecting on the repercussions of COVID-19 on the hospitality sector, Devnath, the manager of Diggin Cafe, underscored the difficulties faced during various waves of the pandemic.

He highlighted their readiness with safety measures, emphasizing the significance of responsibly hosting events as the hospitality sector navigates the festival season.

“The emphasis is on creating a lavish celebration while ensuring the health and wellbeing of the guests,” Devnath said.

Connaught Place, renowned for its lively nightlife, is gearing up once more to be the go-to destination for New Year parties. As the clock ticks down to the commencement of 2024, clubs and cafes are partnering with artists to allure patrons.

“New Year’s time is the biggest period for the hospitality industry and everyone wants to be part of the celebrations. We are ready to give a new experience to music lovers,” Randeep Narang, a DJ, said.

As per a New Year event organizer, the festivities will include diverse elements such as artiste nights, food packages, and live music. The culinary offerings will span a variety, ranging from traditional English foods to Mughal cuisine, with inclusive options for vegans.

“The industry has faced multiple challenges. However, optimism prevails as Delhiites eagerly anticipate the grandeur of New Year’s Eve festivities,” she added.

All of the city’s favoured social hubs, particularly those with a social media theme, are getting ready to welcome revelers.

In places like Khan Market, the festive ambiance is evident, as decorations attract both shoppers and diners, according to the event planner.

The manager of Unplugged Courtyard in Connaught Place mentioned that individuals are anticipated to assemble with their families and friends for barbecue parties.

“Despite initial concerns following Covid cases reported in some states, cafe owners are confident of the safety measures implemented,” he said.

Govt to extend RoDTEP incentives for e-commerce exports: Piyush Goyal

On Thursday, the Union Commerce Minister, Piyush Goyal, announced the extension of incentives within the Remission of Duties and Taxes on Exported Products (RoDTEP) scheme for e-commerce exports.

“The government will be extending RoDTEP benefits for exports through ecommerce,” said Goyal while addressing an event organised by the Director General of Foreign Trade (DGFT).

He further mentioned that the incentives will be officially communicated by the DGFT in the upcoming weeks.

The scheme provides reimbursements for taxes, duties, and levies incurred by exporters during the production and distribution of goods, a reimbursement that is predominantly unaddressed by any other mechanism at the central, state, or local level.

A spokesperson additionally conveyed that the Union Commerce Ministry is poised to promptly establish the requisite IT framework and other facilitators to facilitate the extension of the scheme for exporters.

The move is anticipated to enhance e-commerce exports and provide incentives and benefits to domestic micro, small, and medium enterprises (MSMEs), supporting the government’s objective of achieving $1 trillion in merchandise exports by 2030.

At the event, a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) was inked between the DGFT and the logistics startup Shiprocket to conduct ‘holding capacity building and handholding sessions’ as part of the DGFT’s ecommerce outreach programme.

Speaking about the upcoming ecommerce policy, Goyal said that the proposed rules are at the final stages of discussion. He added that the government is hopeful of bringing out the policy very soon.

The RoDTEP sops come at a time when the DGFT and the Centre have taken a slew of steps to spur e-commerce exports in the country. In November, the government stated that the foreign trade agency was working with the Department of Revenue to develop an initiative on the lines of the ‘composition levy scheme’ to waive GST for smaller MSME players.

The DGFT has collaborated with the Department of Post to enhance and extend Dak Niryat Kendras and foreign post offices (FPOs) to support e-commerce exports. On an international level, the government is also collaborating with postal services from various countries to establish a comprehensive online tracking mechanism for export consignments.

In the domestic arena, the DGFT has partnered with the e-commerce platform Amazon to initiate a pilot program aimed at training e-commerce exporters in 20 districts. The prominent e-commerce player is optimistic about e-commerce exports from India and aims to elevate the figure to $20 billion by 2025.

McDonald’s to release report on single-use plastics amidst growing environmental concerns

McDonald's

McDonald’s is set to “release a report next year examining the pros and cons of reusable packaging in its restaurants worldwide,” according to a report from the Wall Street Journal.

McDonald’s has commissioned studies and reports on this matter and, in 2018, pledged to utilise 100% renewable, recycled, or certified sources for its packaging by 2025. Nevertheless, the company has not achieved this target, and there is no assurance that it will indeed fulfill its stated goal.

Fortunately, there is a proven method to compel corporations to cease using single-use plastics: compelling them through legal changes.

There is no denying that single-use plastics have become a pollution crisis, causing devastating impacts on our planet. In recent years, investors, governments, and the public have started exerting pressure on corporations that contribute to the pollution of oceans and landfills with plastic waste, urging them to explore and adopt alternatives.

McDonald’s has modified its practices in France and Germany in response to more stringent laws in those countries regulating the use of single-use plastics in restaurants. In France, McDonald’s is obligated to serve all on-site meals in reusable containers, and in Germany, it is required to offer reusable containers upon request.

As the company has sustained its operations in both of those countries, the restrictions evidently haven’t been so burdensome as to render the sale of fast food economically unfeasible. In other words, McDonald’s can — and does, when compelled — cease using plastic packaging while still remaining profitable.

A similar restriction on single-use plastics was recently passed in England. India has also passed a similar law.

McDonald’s will release its report at some point and is likely to make commitments regarding its future practices. However, as demonstrated by France, Germany, and others, such changes have frequently been implemented only when mandated by law.

Govt mulls sale of FCI rice under ‘Bharat’ brand, price yet to be finalized

In an effort to tackle rice inflation, the Government is exploring the option of selling FCI (Food Corporation of India) rice under the ‘Bharat’ brand. However, the discounted rate has not been finalized, as mentioned by a Food Ministry official.

The Ministry’s efforts to check retail rice prices by enhancing domestic availability through the sale of FCI rice via e-auction under the Open Market Sale Scheme (OMSS) have received a lukewarm response.

“There is a proposal to retail ‘Bharat rice’ but the price has not yet been decided,” the official stated.

Under the Open Market Sale Scheme (OMSS), the Food Corporation of India (FCI) is selling quality rice at a reserve price of INR 29 per kg.

“Whether to sell Bharat rice at the same rate or reduced rate, the decision has to be taken by the Group of Ministers,” the official added.

The Government is already selling wheat flour (atta) and pulses under the Bharat brand through outlets operated by the National Agricultural Cooperative Marketing Federation of India (NAFED), National Cooperative Consumers’ Federation (NCCF), and Kendriya Bhandar.

FCI has managed to sell only 3.04 lakh tonnes of rice under OMSS so far this year. Regarding wheat, the nodal agency has sold 82.89 lakh tonnes of wheat under OMSS, according to official data.

Rice inflation is at 13% year-on-year, and the Government is concerned about key food prices ahead of the 2024 general elections.

Trade and Industry Minister Piyush Goyal stated on Thursday that the export of rice has been affected by issues in the Red Sea. However, a comprehensive assessment will be possible once the export data for December is available. The situation in the Bab-el-Mandeb Strait, a vital shipping route linking the Red Sea and the Mediterranean Sea to the Indian Ocean, has intensified due to recent attacks by Houthi militants based in Yemen.

On the impact of the Red Sea problem on India’s exports, the minister said, “So far no immediate impact we have observed…One industry which has got affected I am told is rice exports, but more details will be known once we get this December (export) figures.”

The strait, vital for 30 percent of global container traffic, has witnessed increased tensions in 2023. This includes various incidents like attacks and military manoeuvres carried out by regional and global powers.

The Bab-el-Mandeb Strait, referred to as the “Gate of Tears” in Arabic, is a vital trade route linking the Mediterranean Sea and the Indian Ocean through the Red Sea and the Suez Canal. It serves as the separation point between Africa and the Arabian Peninsula.

Exporters suggest that India’s basmati rice shipments to nations such as Egypt and European countries could be adversely affected should the conflict in the Red Sea intensify.

Mamaearth Honasa Consumer

D2C unicorn Mamaearth disclosed on Thursday that a senior executive of the company violated insider trading norms.

In a submission to the BSE, Honasa Consumer, the parent company of Mamaearth, stated that the vice-president of sales at the startup, Shuchi Garg, engaged in share trading without obtaining prior approval from the company secretary or compliance officer.

The breaches were related to the Code of Conduct outlined in the Securities and Exchange Board of India (Prohibition of Insider Trading) Regulations, 2015.

“…We would like to inform you that one of the Designated Person (Employee) of the Company has traded into the equity shares of the Company without obtaining preclearance of the Company Secretary and Compliance Officer of the Company,” Mamamearth said.

Meanwhile, the unicorn has issued a cautionary letter to the employee in question, instructing her to ‘abstain’ from such actions in the future. Mamaearth also indicated that the issue would be presented during the company’s audit committee meeting to formulate a ‘comprehensive action plan’.

According to the regulatory filing, the executive’s transgressions occurred across two distinct transactions on separate days. On December 12, Garg divested 2,000 shares of Honasa Consumer at INR 420 each, amounting to a total value of INR 8.4 lakh.

On the subsequent instance, which occurred on December 27, she once more conducted the sale of 1,500 shares of the company at a share price of INR 457.16, leading to a combined value of INR 6.85 lakh. Both transactions, amounting to a total of INR 15.2 lakhs, were carried out without explicit pre-clearance from the company secretary.

Mamaearth entered the stock market last month, achieving a premium listing of 2% (INR 330) on the NSE. Conversely, its debut on the BSE was at a flat INR 324. The stock has experienced a significant surge of over 42% on the BSE since its listing, primarily driven by favourable Q2 FY24 financial results and a growing positive sentiment among investors towards innovative tech stocks.

Last week, brokerage firm JM Financial initiated a ‘BUY’ call on Honasa Consumer, citing a better outlook and strong financial performance so far.

Mamaearth shares concluded 0.22% down at INR 460.35 on the BSE on Thursday, December 28.

Zomato Live sets sights on new cities and intellectual properties for growth

Zomato Live

Zomato Live Entertainment, the events division of the food delivery platform Zomato, is gearing up to expand its reach by venturing into new cities and creating fresh intellectual properties (IPs).

The decision is in line with the company’s recent introduction of a dedicated tab on the Zomato app, aiding users in discovering and participating in eagerly awaited events throughout various cities.

Zeenah Vilcassim, the CEO of Zomato Live, has outlined the company’s growth path and its objective to make a significant double-digit contribution to Zomato’s overall revenue within a span of three years.

Presently, Zomato Live makes a contribution of a single-digit percentage to Zomato’s total revenue.

“If you look at the scale and the size of the business that we have with online ordering right now and BlinkIt, even a low double-digit is still huge as a business. That’s the goal that we’re working towards, and we’ll release some of those numbers as they come up,” she said.

Introduced in 2018, Zomato Live initially centred on the Zomaland intellectual property, a culinary carnival and music festival that has since extended to eight cities. It has captivated approximately 200,000 patrons with its comprehensive blend of food, entertainment, and music.

Vilcassim emphasized the synergy between Zomato Live and the fundamental Zomato business, particularly in harnessing the search and discovery capabilities of the parent company. The live events industry, experiencing growth post-COVID, is anticipated to reach $8 billion by 2028, up from just under $5 billion today. Zomato Live aspires to establish itself as India’s foremost live entertainment company, prioritizing superior curation, customer experience, and operational excellence, as stated by Vilcassim.

“The opportunity here is really huge also because the consumer expectation, especially for live events, has increased massively in India. People are paying higher prices for ticketing, and they’re expecting amazing production,” the CEO said.

The sector must adapt to that consumer mindset, she remarked, adding, “So when it comes to access to venues, restaurant partner areas, the best tech and developers in the country plus being a very, skilled operations company, it was a no-brainer almost that we should do this side of business. Also, because there’s a lot of synergies that can go back to the core business.”

In order to capitalise on the burgeoning interest in live events, Zomato Live seeks to provide top-notch experiences and generate revenue through ticketing and sponsorships. The company has introduced a fresh events tab in the Zomato app, presenting a carefully curated array of premium events, encompassing festivals, concerts, and tours.

This characteristic, marked by a premium user interface, is set to extend to 12 prominent cities, commencing with a special New Year’s Eve presentation. The tab will showcase “the finest events available for booking on New Year’s Eve, featuring excellent content, video materials, and all curated through a delightful search and discovery element,” she appended.

Contemplating Zomato’s achievement of profitability with Zomaland, Vilcassim stressed a strategic commitment to cultivating sustainable intellectual properties. Zomato Live recognises the dynamics of the market and strives to broaden its portfolio of events to mitigate risks, offering a blend of both large-scale and more intimate gatherings.

“We will also be announcing some new IPs and concerts that we have coming up, including four more left of Zomaland. We’re also looking at more premium things in the sneaker space, we are doing a collab with Mainstreet that’s already kind of been discussed and coming out. We’re working with them on their Indian Sneaker Convention. We have a big comedy act coming through, two big artists tours coming through and another IP that we’re going to launch later in the year,” she added.

Underlining the changing dynamics of the market, Vilcassim mentioned a prevailing fatigue arising from the abundance of various intellectual properties (IPs) and continuous launches in the live events sector. In acknowledgment of this market sentiment, she delineated a strategic approach centred on clarity, emphasising the importance of identifying significant ventures that will shape Zomato Live’s course.

“Our strategy extends to the diversification of our events portfolio, ensuring that our profitability isn’t solely dependent on the success of IP creation and curation,” she said.

Recognizing the time-consuming process of establishing intellectual properties (IPs), the company acknowledges the necessity for a well-rounded strategy. This strategy encompasses large-scale productions with renowned artists, attracting substantial crowds and demonstrating positive profit and loss outcomes. Simultaneously, it involves cost-effective events. The intention is to approach the live events landscape with a business perspective, she explained.

Unravelling the mystery of protein in vegan meat

0
vegan

As the years pass by, the culinary landscape is getting widened by a plethora of new evolutions. Over time, the demand for taste has witnessed a seismic shift and people have started prioritising their health and the ecosystem around them. And as the need for sustainable and cruelty-free dining options have made headlines, many have started practicing veganism. 

Plant-based meats proudly offer taste and health almost like that of real meat counterparts. Yet, there’s always a never-ending debate and myths about the nutritional profiles of vegan meat. Do plant-based options lag in the protein race? Let’s explore further to know the details. 

Why is plant-based meat gaining popularity?

The uproar of plant-based meats brought a culinary revolution in the food market driven by a number of factors such as– ethical consciousness, sustainability, care for the environment, and a search for healthier substitutes for meat. For all those who think, plant-based meat involves just lentil patties and tofu, here’s some news for you, vegan alternatives of meat have evolved a lot, and they taste and feel so much like the original meat that you may not be able to make a difference. 

Apart from the taste, the environmental impact, including cutting trees, water wastage, and emission of greenhouse gas, has pushed the new generation to look beyond regular meat. Veganism is considered ethical for animal welfare and that’s another reason for people to opt for a more conscientious and harmonious lifestyle. 

Does vegan meat provide enough protein?

Contrary to popular belief, plant-based meats get their protein from different vegan sources which are meticulously combined to create an overall nutritional profile. Some of the important ingredients are yellow peas, soy protein and wheat gluten which are the top players to mirror the protein density of the real meat in vegan meat. 

Meanwhile, some of the obvious and most used ingredients in plant-based diets are lentils, legumes, chickpeas, and more. These are high in protein and a perfect symphony of taste and nutrition. However, just to understand better, let’s explore a comparison of the nutritional value of protein in plant-based meat vs real meat-

An average chicken breast contains about 31 grams of protein per 114 grams of serving. So, considering the amount, a vegan meat alternative can battle the real meat with 20-25 grams of protein per serving.

Not just protein, plant-based meat is filled with the goodness of a number of vitamins and nutrients like iron, zinc, B12, Vitamin D, Omega-3 fatty acids, fibre, calcium, and more. 

What are the health benefits of plant-based meat?

Although there are multiple health benefits of adding plant-based meat to your diet, here are a few notable ones.

Controlled cholesterol and saturated fat

Vegan meats generally rank lower in saturated fats as compared to traditional meats. That means if one consumes more plant-based meat there is a lesser chance of health risk, especially heart disease. Also, vegan meat is considered cholesterol-free, which contributes to one’s heart health.

Controlled weight 

Plant-based meats contain relatively lower calorie count and higher fiber quantity than animal-based counterparts. Meanwhile, the goodness of fibre in vegan meat can prompt a feeling of fullness, leading to weight management and a lesser risk of obesity.  

Reduced risk of hazardous diseases

Vegan meat has often been linked to a lesser risk of severe diseases like type 2 diabetes, blood pressure and some cancers. This is because a plant-based diet is stuffed with antioxidants, phytochemicals, and fibre which immensely contribute to good health.

Better gut health

Plant-based diet including vegan meat boasts of fibre. An adequate amount of fibre intake in a routine will not just keep you fit but also take care of risks associated with gut health like constipation, diarrhea and more. 

Balanced blood sugar levels

Vegan meat can help in keeping the blood sugar levels in check, making it beneficial for the ones who are dealing with or have a risk of type 2 diabetes. This happens due to complex carbohydrates present in the plant-based ingredients which release glucose slowly. It eventually prevents blood sugar levels from rising.

Improved heart health 

Plant-based meats have often been associated with better heart health. Vegan meat lowers the saturated fat intake and increases heart-healthy fats from nuts and seeds. This improves cardiovascular health and reduces heart disease related risks. 

Improved immune system

Vegan meat has a wide range of vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants derived from plants. These nutrients play an important role in improving overall health and immunity.
