Kudos Maini. Building innovation based businesses in India is not easy by any measure.

Apart from public sector support, we need our large legacy businesses to step fwd as well and build together for a #ViksitBharat

For 10 years, Swati Maini worked abroad as a mechanical engineer—until she returned to India with one mission: to power the unpowered.

Her startup, Maini Renewables, has created a revolutionary mini turbine that generates electricity from small water streams & canals—without dams, without displacement.

Tested at IIT Roorkee and priced at just ₹1 lakh, this innovation is lighting up villages in Gadchiroli & Melghat, where electricity was still an unfulfilled promise.

Why This Matters for India?

✅ No More Darkness – 18,000+ villages still lack reliable power. Swati’s turbine can change that.
✅ Eco-Friendly & Scalable – No large dams = no environmental harm. Just clean energy from flowing water.
✅ Energy Independence – Villages can sell surplus power back to the grid, boosting local economies.
✅ Women Leading Innovation – Swati’s journey proves India’s energy future can be inclusive & grassroots-driven.

"Renewable energy isn’t just about saving the planet—it’s about empowering the last person in the line." – Swati Maini

The future isn’t just green. It’s fair. It’s inclusive. And it’s flowing right now.

Flying @AkasaAir for the first time. A really smooth and efficient check in process. Kudos to Kajal Singh and ground team at T2. Look forward to take the skies with Akasa soon.

Be careful when you say - "I read a report about a study on COVID-19 using AI ....... ". Still quite far from replacing the good ol' M.D. eyes.

The constant question which most #policymakers working around #livelihoods face - how to bridge #skills and #education together and create long lasting #impact.

[Anupam Gupta @AnupamGupt]

#EdTech has definitely seen a massive #uptake in #India. While #Covid might have provided the push behind the scale of uptake, we need to focus on #quality in order to create a #sustainable model for #growth and #impact.

[Anupam Gupta @AnupamGupt]

Clearly more people are buying original @LVMH goods then original @Microsoft #windows.

Does this correspond to a decline in the #Chinese #economy?

[Anupam Gupta @AnupamGupt]

India's collective productivity just went down with those 3 wickets. Most managers adjusting their weekly targets with this surprise midweek shock.

While the #lenders will hope to find global consortia to bid and take the brand and assets off them, they also realise the peculiar spot they are in and hopefully are willing to take a bigger #haircut.

[Anupam Gupta @AnupamGupt]

For all those hoping for a #lifeline for @jetairways , sadly it will be end soon. As most aviation experts will tell you, it would cost much less to setup a brand new airline with all the bells and whistles, vs rebooting the massive debtpile laden machinery at @JetBlue

[Anupam Gupta @AnupamGupt]

While I understand the #UnitEconomics of most #LCC does not allow them to provide a large number of services on erstwhile @kingfisherworld or @jetairways, it is the service element which made these 2 stand out.

[Anupam Gupta @AnupamGupt]

Most of my air travel in my early years was international, hence the standards set by the likes of @swissairlines @lufthansa @KLM were hard to match by the domestic nationalised carriers. It took a flamboyant brewer from #Bangalore to give Indians some stylish wings.

[Anupam Gupta @AnupamGupt]

Am I the only one feeling weird that the 2 Indian air carriers who were top of the game have shut down within a decade. #Kingfisher and now #Jet. We are now officially in the #AgeOfLowCostCarriers

India set to become 3rd largest consumer market in world behind only US & China. Consumer spending will grow from$1.5 trillion to $ 6 trillion by 2030. Nearly 80% of households will be middle -class & will drive 75% of consumer spending - Future of Consumption: WEF & Bains

I’ve always drawn inspiration from what Dr. King called life’s most persistent and urgent question: "What are you doing for others?" Let’s honor his legacy by standing up for what is right in our communities and taking steps to make a positive impact on the world.
