Dharam Agarwal, Director, Ashwika Warehousing LLP

Mumbai (Maharashtra) [India], February 19: With much happiness, Ashwika Warehousing LLP is announcing a major step forward: 1 crore sq of industrial warehouse & logistics park construction is being launched as part of our next growth phase. This announcement is also being made on Dharam Agarwal’s birthday, which makes the day even more meaningful for our team, our partners and everyone who has been part of this journey.

This is not just an expansion of space. This is an expansion of capability. The focus is clear : built-to-suit (BTS) industrial warehouses that can be planned around real operational needs, across industries and storage types.

Built-to-suit warehouses that fit the way you operate

Every business handles inventory difterently. Some need wide movement lanes and fast dispatch. Some need racking-heavy layouts. Some need clean zoning for categories. Some need flexible staging for inbound and outbound peaks.

That is why this construction rollout is being built around one promise: warehousing that adapts to your use case.

With built-to-suit warehouses, planning can be aligned to:

• Storage type and SKU movement
• Loading and unloading flow
• Layout needs for racking, stacking, or mixed storage
• On-ground oftice and support areas
• Scalability for changing volume

The goal is simple: give businesses warehouse infrastructure that works in day-to- day operations, not just on paper.

Suitable for every storage type and every business type

This rollout is being positioned for a wide range of users, including:

• Manufacturing and engineering supply chains
• 3PL and logistics service providers
• FMCG and retail distribution
• E-Commerce storage and dispatch
• Auto ancillary and parts warehousing
• Multi-category stockists and regional hubs

If your inventory needs vary across seasons, categories, or channels, the intent is to support that with flexible warehousing solutions.

Locations covered in this construction rollout

The 1 Cr Sq Ft rollout is being announced across key industrial belts, with sites planned and activated in the following areas:

• Chacharwadi
• Rajoda
• Bavla
• Kerala
• Kochariya
• Bhayala
• Kalyangadh
• Raipur (Vataman)
• Khanpur
• Kanera
• Kajipura
• Sanand (Kalana, Sachana, Makhiyav)
• Jalisana
• Halol
• Manjusar
• Vadodara
• Bhiwandi (Kurund)

This spread has been planned to support businesses looking for strong connectivity, industrial clustering, and practical access for movement and distribution.

Why this matters for growing businesses

A rollout of this scale creates room for businesses that are:

• Adding new distribution points
• Expanding regional coverage
• Consolidating inventory into fewer, stronger hubs
• Moving into built-to-suit models to reduce operational compromises
• Planning capacity ahead of peak cycles

With BTS planning, teams can look at warehousing not as a fixed cost, but as a space that supports efticiency in movement, handling, and turnaround.

A note of gratitude, and what comes next

On 19 February, as we celebrate Dharam Ji’s birthday, we are also celebrating everyone who has trusted Ashwika Warehousing LLP with their requirements, timelines and growth plans. This announcement reflects the belief that India’s industrial ecosystem needs infrastructure that keeps pace with ambition, and we are committed to building with that intent.

If you are planning warehouse capacity in Gujarat or Maharashtra and you want a built-to-suit solution aligned to your storage type and operations, this is the right time to start the conversation.

Bengaluru (Karnataka) [India], February 19: greytHR, India’s most trusted full-suite HRMS for hire-to-retire solutions today announced the release of HR Predictions for 2026 – A greytHR Perspective, a flagship insights release based on findings from the 2026 HR Leader Prediction Index, developed from responses by over 500 senior HR leaders and features exclusive viewpoints from experienced HR practitioners and industry leaders.

The Index assesses organisational readiness using greytHR’s HR Prediction Score (HPS), measuring confidence across six dimensions of HR maturity. While results show visible progress across several areas, the data also highlights uneven preparedness as organisations face scale, skills disruption, and rapid AI adoption.

According to the findings, Performance Enablement, Organizational Vitality, and Workforce Experience are showing strong progress.

• Performance Enablement recorded the highest HPS (+66.08), reflecting a shift towards “hard HR,” with systems linking individual output to business strategy becoming central to success.
• Organizational Vitality scored +64.58, indicating healthy leadership pipelines and effective manager training, allowing organisations to take bigger risks with AI and reskilling.
• Workforce Experience scored +61.57, showing a move from perks to stability, with hybrid work models largely stabilised.

Yet, the Index also highlights areas that need attention. Culture & Inclusion, Digital Dilemma, and Talent Agility highlight emerging vulnerabilities.

• Culture and Inclusion scored +59.74, sitting just below the confidence zone; well-being programmes are active, but burnout remains a persistent risk.
• Digital Dilemma scored +57.12, with tech fragmentation diminishing and unified data platforms emerging, though trust in AI and accountability in digital decisions remain uneven.
• Talent Agility was the weakest dimension (+50.39), with skill obsolescence, limited internal mobility, and the need for dynamic skill graphing as key challenges.

The greytHR perspective notes that many of today’s workforce challenges—burnout, stalled career progression, and leadership strain—are structural rather than individual, rooted in how work, skills, and technology are designed and governed. As AI moves from experimentation to operational use, the findings emphasise the need for human-in-the-loop governance, workflow redesign, and AI literacy.

“The future of HR is about intentional design—where performance, skills, leadership, and technology evolve as one connected system. Organisations that integrate these elements thoughtfully can unlock greater potential, foster stronger engagement, and drive sustainable growth in an ever-changing business landscape.” – Girish Rowjee, Co-founder and CEO, greytHR.

“We are at an exciting inflection point where AI and digital systems are becoming integral to how HR operates. The opportunity now is to build intelligent, interoperable platforms that combine strong data foundations with human insight. When technology and judgment work seamlessly together, organisations gain the clarity and agility needed to scale with confidence.” – Sayeed Anjum, Co-founder and CTO, greytHR.

The release concludes with five priority actions for HR leaders, offering practical guidance to help organisations move from HR maturity to strategic acceleration as they prepare for 2026.

Mumbai (Maharashtra) [India], February 19: Following its successful debut on the BSE SME platform in December 2025, Pajson Agro India Ltd (PAIL) is entering a transformative phase of industrial scaling. With a robust performance recorded in the first nine months of the fiscal year and a clear roadmap for FY26, the company is solidifying its position as a leading integrated player in India’s cashew processing industry.

Nine-Month Performance & Strategic Milestones

The nine-month period ended December 2025 marked a defining phase for Pajson Agro, led by the successful ₹74.45 crore IPO and a decisive scale-up in operations. During the period, the company’s installed capacity stands doubled from 9,000 MT (FY24) to 18,000 MT through expansion at its Anakapalli facility, strengthening its manufacturing base to support future growth.

From a financial standpoint, revenue for 9M FY26 stood at ₹187.78 crore, reflecting strong demand and execution.

B2C Expansion: The “Royal Mewa” brand saw its revenue from white-label branding grow nearly fivefold in just six months, reflecting rapid consumer acceptance.

FY26 Outlook: Target 30–40% Growth

As the company moves toward the full-year mark in March 2026, management expects to deliver a strong growth of 30–40% over FY25. This surge is fuelled by the recent capacity expansion at the existing Anakapalli plant, which has significantly improved processing efficiency and allowed the company to meet rising demand from its 71-strong distributor network.

The Road Ahead: A Long-Term Growth Engine

The deployment of IPO proceeds is already underway, with a primary focus on establishing a second, massive processing facility in Vizianagaram, Andhra Pradesh. Strategic Execution: Contracts for major project components have been negotiated, ensuring a swift transition to the construction phase.

Capacity Leap: The new facility is slated for trial runs by late 2026, with commercial production expected in Q4 of FY27. This plant is designed to eventually bring the company’s total annual capacity to 53,000 MT. The management anticipates a 10–15% growth in volumes processed from current Anakapalli plant during FY27.

Diversified Growth: The core processing business continues to remain the dominant driver, with a clear strategic focus on expanding institutional customers and strengthening the B2B segment. Meanwhile, the B2C segment recorded strong traction, growing threefold in FY26.

With an expanding geographic footprint across India and supportive government policies, Pajson Agro is well positioned to evolve from a regional processor into a national agro-industrial player. Rising domestic demand and a structurally strong cashew market further reinforce the Company’s long-term growth outlook.
