Shoolini University launches virtual classrooms

MUMBAI, MARCH 20, 2020 (HPN):  Himachal-based Shoolini University has taken a pioneering and innovative step in introducing e-classes and online learning for students in the wake of coronavirus outbreak.

Lectures would be delivered through a special platform developed by faculty and students of the University through the Internet. The students would be able to attend the delivery of the live lecture through virtual classroom. They would also be able to ask questions and get answers in real time.

“We have introduced the system to protect the semester and ensure that the students do not suffer from postponed examinations and delayed graduation”, said Pro Vice Chancellor Prof Atul Khosla.

“All lectures will now happen as per the scheduled time table, albeit in virtual space. We shall ensure that not a single day of study should be lost and students should graduate on time”, he added.

Fortunately, Shoolini University researchers had been working on the online learning system for the last six months which was an extension of the e-Univ system already enforced in the University. Under the e-Univ system, lectures are recorded in a capsule form which can be accessed by students any time. The live lectures introduced now would be recorded and would also be available for the students later.

Prof Khosla said the new system would enable the students to interact with the lecturer who can make use of other technological tools such as graphs and power point presentations. The system includes provision for conducting examinations in a secure environment, he added. ENDS

Reliance General Insurance Launches A Comprehensive Health Insurance Plan “Reliance Health Infinity”

Mr. Rakesh Jain, CEO, Reliance General Insurance

MUMBAI, MARCH 19, 2020 (HPN): Reliance General Insurance, a part of Reliance Capital, launched a comprehensive health insurance plan “Reliance Health Infinity”. This product is specially designed to focus and support the healthcare needs of retail customers with unique benefits. More Cover, where a buyer will get additional sum insured; More Time, where a buyer will get covered for additional period and More Global where a buyer will be insured not only in India but also globally for emergency hospitalization.

Today, most of the health policies do not cover new age treatment, hence as the name suggests, Reliance Health Infinity would go  great length to fill that void, offer beyond what one can normally expect from a usual health insurance policy, in essence – #SochSeZyaada.

Typically, existing health insurance policies available in the market come with many sub-limits and co-payments, which pose a huge discomfort to customers when they claim during hospitalisation. Reliance Health Infinity has no sub-limits for hospital room rent, Road Ambulance and organ donor expenses. The plan also comes with Ayush benefit, wherein all the expenses incurred on treatment in a hospital under Ayurveda, Unani, Sidha and Homeopathy.

The product comes with 90 days pre and 180 days post hospitalization cover as well as a wide range of sum insured from INR 3 lakh to 1 crore. Customers can therefore focus on their critical treatment, rather than worry about which room to choose against their insurance coverage.

Reliance Health Infinity has been designed to be customer centric and makes it easy for customers to avail varied covers. For instance, if any insured person suffers an illness or injury requires medical treatment then the cost of all day care procedures, domiciliary hospitalization, emergency transportation and more are covered. These also include co-payment for special medical treatments such as Robotic Surgery, Stem Cell therapy, Parkinson and Alzheimer’s disease. Insured individuals will have access to more than 5000 cashless hospital networks and can even avail upto 30% discount on premiums which includes voluntary co -payment, 2/3 year policy, individual sum insured in a family & renewal discount.

Commenting on this development, Rakesh Jain, ED & CEO, Reliance General Insurance said, “One of the primary reasons for low health insurance penetration in India is opaque policies that come with infinite terms and conditions attached. Our objective is to ensure a wider coverage for the country to benefit our existing and potential customers, and we believe a strong and transparent product such as Reliance Health Infinity Insurance can definitely jump start this initiative. With customer centricity as one of our core ethos, we would also like to reinforce our commitment to our client base with a product that allows the customer more leeway in decision making, when amid a healthcare requirement.”

Given the seemingly endless amount of benefits offered, the new and innovative Reliance Health Infinity takes health insurance completely to the next level. The product will be sold through a strong 35,100+ agency network, and backed with robust telesales and online digital channels.

As one of the leading private sector general insurance company, our innovative products and state-of-the-art technology will continue to pave the way for a better tomorrow. By consistently bringing positive change to the industry, our hope is to deliver the best customer service and products with multitude benefits. With the lowest grievance ratio amongst peers in the industry, transparent claim settlement systems and a strong customer base, we look forward to becoming one of the foremost players in the entire insurance sector. ENDS

B. Thiagarajan, Managing Director, Blue Star Ltd. in front of the display at the venue of the company’s press conference in Mumbai to announce the launch of Blue Star’s ‘premium-yet-affordable’ air conditioners.

MUMBAI, 13 MARCH, 2020 (HPN): Blue Star, India’s leading air conditioning brand, which is known for its premium products and has earned the trust of millions of customers with its range of innovative and elegant residential air conditioners, today announced the launch of its new range of best-in-class residential air conditioners. This new range caters to the expectations of those customers who desire premium, high-quality ACs but at attractive prices.

With this strategic foray into the ‘Premium-Yet-Affordable’ segment, Blue Star has rolled out a stunning range of 3-star inverter split air conditioners that are available at attractive prices starting from Rs 31990/- for a 1 ton 3-star inverter split AC and from    Rs 37990/- for a 1.5 ton 3-star inverter split AC.

This new range of ACs retains the premium build quality which is the hallmark of       Blue Star air conditioners. They are built to be highly reliable and durable and are virtually trouble-free. The ACs are also highly energy efficient, so running costs are low. Besides, the complete range runs on eco-friendly refrigerants.

Another significant aspect of this range of ACs is that each unit comes with a built-in voltage stabiliser that ensures trouble-free operations across a wide range of input voltage from 160V to 270V without the need for an external voltage stabiliser. This not only saves on the cost of the external stabiliser but it also does away with the need for space besides the nuisance of having to mount one beside the AC.

Blue Star also facilitates purchase of these ACs through easy financing options. Customers can avail of attractive finance at zero percent interest with easy EMI options. There are also cash-back offers via tie-ups with leading banks and finance firms.

All Blue Star inverter ACs are backed by an assured comprehensive warranty for the first year, and a long-term warranty of 10 years for the compressor. Customers can also avail of extended warranty options from the second year onwards for the next 5 years.

Innovative product range

Apart from the ‘Premium-Yet-Affordable’ range of air conditioners, Blue Star has also launched a series of innovative range of split air conditioners:

• Super energy-efficient 5-star inverter split AC with an ISEER of 5.41, which is 55% more energy-efficient compared to a 3-star inverter split AC.
• 5-star inverter split AC with in-built air purifier, which can remove 99.78% of particulate matter (PM 2.5) and microbial kill rate of 99.999%. This can be operated just like an air purifier in winter, without the compressor being switched ‘ON.’
• Next-gen wi-fi-enabled 5-star inverter split AC, which can be controlled from anywhere in the world, with smart options such as energy budgeting, customised sleep modes, climate control, and dual user setting, amongst others; it can also be operated through voice commands in both English and Hindi by using an appropriate interface device.
• 5-star inverter split AC that can deliver 30% more cooling based on the heat load inside the room. This is one of the more popular of Blue Star’s innovations. Introduced in 2019, this range will be continued in 2020 as well.
• 4-star inverter split AC with Hot and Cool Technology which provides both, cooling and heating solutions throughout the year.
• Inverter split AC with ‘iRest,’ a unique fuzzy logic function, when activated, will switch automatically from air conditioning (cooling) mode to fan only mode, at the pre-designated time, to provide utmost comfort for undisturbed sleep.

Future ready products

• Future ready 3-star inverter split AC complying to the 2021 BEE energy-efficiency norms, with an ISEER of 3.90.

Manufacturing and R&D prowess

Blue Star’s manufacturing footprint spans five state-of-the-art manufacturing facilities, and the Company has one of the best AHRI-certified R&D facilities in India with the largest talent pool of engineers having excellent capabilities in design and testing in the field of electro-mechanical engineering and electronics. This has helped the Company in incorporating cutting edge technologies in all its new product developments.

Distribution

Blue Star has a robust distribution network across India with 90% of the Company’s transactional interface with its dealers and channel partners being digitised. At the same time, the Company continues to significantly expand its retail distribution reach.                  Blue Star’s room air conditioners are available at 5000 outlets in 650 locations spread across the length and breadth of the country in various formats. Currently, Blue Star has 200 exclusive brand stores in the country, and work is in progress to increase it to 250 stores by the end of FY20. The products are also available on various e-commerce portals. The Company has a strong installation and service franchise network to support retailers.

Next phase of growth — Blue Star’s room ACs — “Owned by Virat, Loved by Virat”

In its next phase of growth, Blue Star aims to shift orbit and accelerate growth by penetrating deeper across the length and breadth of India. By leveraging its brand salience, the Company intends to garner mass appeal cutting across geographies and demographics. To achieve this growth, Blue Star recently rolled out the new festive season campaign, which unveiled Virat Kohli’s association with Blue Star’s room air conditioners. Since Cricket has mass appeal in India and Virat Kohli’s skills are unmatched in this game, this campaign is apt for the Company, as Blue Star’s persona deeply resonates with both Cricket and Virat Kohli.

The Campaign began with the launch of a new TV commercial which highlights                 Blue Star’s new range of room air conditioners that can deliver up to 30% extra cooling when needed, with an endorsement, “Owned by Virat, Loved by Virat.”

The Company had also rolled out another new TV commercial that talks about its new and innovative product – an inverter AC with in-built air purifier which also bears the endorsement, “Owned by Virat, Loved by Virat.”

Today, Blue Star has unveiled yet another new TV commercial that talks about its latest innovative product – an inverter AC with Next-gen wi-fi-enabled and Voice Command Technology embedded in it. A simple voice command can turn on the air conditioner without the use of a remote or smart phone. This too bears the endorsement, “Owned by Virat, Loved by Virat.”

Virat Kohli on Blue Star

On his association with Blue Star, Virat Kohli said, “Blue Star is a well-established brand and definitely the best in cooling. So for me, it was a no-brainer to be associated with a brand like Blue Star. I’ve never shot a campaign like this where there so many quirks and so many things happening. It was very different from what I’ve done in the past. Definitely something that people are going to love to watch, I can guarantee that. Also, it nicely covered the many aspects of Blue Star’s versatility when it comes to their product.”

Products across various price points

With the penetration of room air conditioners in India as low as 5-6%, the room AC market continues to offer abundant opportunities for Blue Star. The Company has already made deep inroads into Tier 3, 4 and 5 towns with more than 60% of its sales coming from these markets. Going ahead, Blue Star intends to make deeper inroads into various customer segments and geographies and grow its market share with a wide array of superior and innovative products across various price points.

Blue Star’s innovative and super elegant air conditioners, with the capability of delivering best-in-class cooling, are well known for quality, reliability and durability, making        Blue Star one of the significant players in the industry with a market share of around 12.5% in FY19, which the Company aims to increase to 15% by FY24.

Management outlook

Speaking to the Press at a conference held at Mumbai, B Thiagarajan, Managing Director, Blue Star Limited, said, “I am glad that with this launch we are now present across the entire price spectrum of residential ACs, and offer the most comprehensive mix of innovative and future ready products, all of which can cater to the most specific and distinct requirement of any customer. I am positive that this, in conjunction with our association with Virat, will help us continue to expand further, cutting across geographies and demographics.”   ENDS
