Quality Power and Yash High voltage Announce Acquisition of Sukrut Electric
In a significant strategic move, Quality Power Electrical Equipments Ltd. (NSE: QPOWER, BSE: 544367) and Yash Highvoltage Ltd. (BSE – SME: 544310) have jointly announced the signing of a Binding Term Sheet to acquire 100% stake in Sukrut Electric Company Pvt. Ltd. (SECPL), a Pune-based transformer component manufacturer with a legacy spanning over six decades.
The acquisition is being executed via a complete buyout from a German Multinational. The current promoters for several years have contributed to elevating the company’s technical capabilities and global reach.
This transaction brings together two of India’s fastest-growing high-voltage equipment players— Quality Power, a specialist in High Voltage Power Products and Power Quality solutions, and Yash Highvoltage, a global supplier of condenser-graded bushings—to collaborate on scaling a trusted domestic brand with an international footprint.
“Sukrut Electric is a legacy brand synonymous with trust, precision, and long-term relationships across the global transformer industry,” said Bharanidharan Pandyan, Joint Managing Director of Quality Power. “Their deep integration with hundreds of transformer OEMs worldwide gives us an exceptional platform to serve the evolving demands of energy infrastructure. As grid modernization and the energy transition drive unprecedented demand for high-performance transformer components, this acquisition positions us to deliver critical technologies at scale, deepen our global presence, and play a meaningful role in enabling the next generation of resilient and efficient power systems.”
Keyur Shah, Chairman and Managing Director of Yash Highvoltage, added “Sukrut is a respected name in the transformer ecosystem with enduring relationships and technical maturity. With the combined support of Quality Power and Yash Highvoltage, we aim to expand Sukrut’s product depth, modernize operations, and position it as a preferred supplier for global OEMs. This acquisition is not just about scale—it’s about strategic alignment to serve a global market more effectively.”
The transformer industry is witnessing significant global demand, driven by transmission infrastructure upgrades, renewable energy integration, and grid expansion programs across emerging and developed markets. Reliable component supply is a key bottleneck in this growth, and the combined strength of Quality Power, Yash Highvoltage, and Sukrut are well-positioned to address this challenge.
The transaction is expected to close over the next two quarters, subject to completion of customary regulatory and commercial formalities.
Humanscale, the global leader in workplace ergonomics, to expand its Retail Presence in India
New York head-quartered Humanscale, the leading designer and manufacturer of high-performance ergonomic products for the workplace, has announced that it will expand it retail presence in India by establishing its presence in 50 multi-branded stores by mid-2026 in collaboration with local retail partners. In addition to Tier 1 cities, Humanscale would also focus on Tier 2 and Tier 3 cities across India where it sees huge potential for retail sales of its ergonomic products.
The company, which until recently primarily followed a B2B sales model, now sees a huge potential in retail and is targeting to increase the percentage of the company’s sales from retail to about 30% of its total revenue from the current 5% by FY 27.
In India, Humanscale has been selling its award-winning products that include ergonomic chairs, sit/stand desks, new monitor arm line and the ergonomic tools through its Authorised Distribution Partner, S Cube Ergonomics Pvt Ltd (S Cube), having their Exclusive Showroom and Ergonomics Experience Centre at Bengaluru, Hyderabad and Pune with presence in 10+ multi-branded stores across India through its current local retail partners.
The company, which had India revenues of $12 M for FY 24, has high-profile India customers that include Visa, LinkedIn, WellsFargo, Microsoft, Goldman Sachs, Google, Bank of America, Pepsico etc.
“In India, our Retail target audience includes high-net-worth individuals, SMEs, and business owners seeking ergonomic solutions for their home offices or personal office spaces. We are interested in partnering with local retailers across India who cater to this segment. This includes both standard showroom format retailers that attract walk-ins, as well as trade partners who reach customers through architects, interior designers, and contractors’, said Sathish Nandagopal, Founder and Director, S Cube.
“Ergonomics is a multifaceted subject that demands careful understanding. Establishing strong local connections significantly enhances our market presence. Through local partnerships we experience better reception and deeper engagement with the community, ensuring that our ergonomic solutions effectively reach the right audience,” added Sathish Nandagopal.
“There is a significant gap in the market for ergonomic workstations for retail customers. Currently, awareness and accessibility are quite limited. Many people believe that a good ergonomic chair is enough, but that’s only part of the solution. A complete ergonomic workstation includes a high-quality chair, a height-adjustable desk, a monitor arm, a docking station, a keyboard tray, and proper task lighting,” said Alastair Stubbs, Country Director India, Humanscale.” With more people working from home and in small office spaces, musculoskeletal disorders are becoming increasingly common, creating a growing demand for these solutions. As awareness grows and more consumers understand the value of investing in full ergonomic solutions, we anticipate strong demand from the retail segment in the coming years.”
“Since 2014, Humanscale, along with our India Distribution Partner S Cube, has been on a relentless mission to build an ‘Ergonomic India’. The Retail expansion outlined above is a further testimony to Humanscale’s commitment to the Indian market as well as to enhancing the health, well-being, and productivity of workers everywhere. By turning spaces into places that encourage movement, comfort, and personalization, Humanscale is setting a new benchmark for workplace ergonomics,” concluded Alastair Stubbs.

Shalimar Paints redefines Waterproofing Solutions by introducing ZDA and ZDS
Shalimar Paints Ltd., a pioneer in the Indian paints industry with a legacy of over 120 years, has launched two new innovative products, Zero Damp Advance and Zero Damp Smart, in their Home Protect Waterproofing range. Designed to set new industry benchmarks, these innovative additions offer unparalleled protection against seepage and come with a performance warranty of up to 12 years, ensuring enduring safeguarding of walls.
Shalimar Paints’ Zero Damp elastomeric waterproof coating is reinforced with fibres that protect from internal and external seepage by forming a sturdy waterproofing shield. Backed by superior technology and R&D, it features heat reflection capabilities to lower surface temperatures, ensuring cooler indoor spaces during scorching summers. With this launch, Shalimar Paints also rolled out an intriguing campaign, #IntelligentBanoJugaduNahi, to raise awareness about waterproofing walls. Noting the inclination of Indians towards quick fixes instead of permanent solutions for seepage, the company collaborated with two influencers from the field, Saurabh Jain and Palak Shah. They encouraged followers to share their ‘jugaadu’ while hiding seepage and highlighted the superior effectiveness of Shalimar Paints Zero Damp solutions.
Mr. Kuldip Raina, Director, Sales & Marketing, Shalimar Paints said, “Dampness is a problem, witnessed by almost every Indian household, particularly in areas with high humidity or heavy annual rainfall. We are pleased to announce our two innovative products in the ZERO Damp Range that will protect your spaces from internal and external seepage and solve all your problems including dampness, cracks, flaking, fungal growth, and efflorescence. At Shalimar Paints, we are committed to delivering superior solutions that underscore our dedication to providing our customers with products that not only protect but also enhance the longevity of their homes.”
Speaking on the campaign, Mr. Varun Malik, Marketing Head, Shalimar Paints said, “As most people do not take the problem of seepage seriously, which leads to grave damage later, we also launched #IntelligentBanoJugaduNahi campaign to raise awareness, on social media. The response has been overwhelmingly positive, and we believe it has successfully educated the importance of addressing seepage issues proactively.”
Zero Damp Advance offers double seepage resistance, crack bridging up to 3 mm, and can endure up to 20% wall moisture, supported by a 12-year warranty. Its anti-algal and anti-fungal properties promote a healthy environment which is crucial during the rainy season, reducing fungal health risks. Alternatively, Zero Damp Smart provides affordable waterproofing with a 3-year seepage warranty and effective water damage protection. These new products were recently launched at a special event in Dubai (UAE), attended by over 300 dealers and partners.
Dr Shroff’s Charity Eye Hospital and Pandorum Technologies launch a one-of-its-kind centre to offer advanced, regenerative therapy for corneal blindness – INDIAN NEWS & TIMES
India’s leading eyecare institute Dr Shroff’s Charity Eye Hospital today collaborated with Bengaluru-based Pandorum Technology to inaugurate a one-of-its-kind centre offering advanced regenerative therapeutics for patients suffering from corneal blindness. The initiative hopes to help in bridging the demand-access for cornea availability by making regenerative treatments accessible for millions.
According to the WHO, corneal opacity accounts for over 4% of blindness worldwide, leading to more than 1.5–2 million cases each year. India has a huge burden of bilateral (1.2 million) and unilateral (5 – 6 million) corneal blindness. Each year, the burden increases by 30,000 new cases of blindness. According to the Eye Bank Association of India, more than 1,00,000 corneal transplants are required annually, but only 25000 are actually done.
Dr Virender Sangwan, Director of Innovation, Dr Shroff’s Charity Eye Hospital said, “At present, the only way to get a cornea for a transplant is through cadaver donors i.e., people who have pledged to donate their organs upon their death. Unfortunately, 40% of the donated corneas do not meet the standards for the transplant. The fact that our supply of corneas is dependent on donors is our biggest challenge. Our partnership with Pandorum technologies aims to solve this challenge by exploring innovative therapies in the space of regenerative medicine where a human tissue is replaced with artificial cells.”
The ‘Bioengineered Cornea’ is a class of products powered by tissue-specific exosomes and tissue-mimetic biomaterials, to promote regeneration of healthy functional cornea. When this is applied as liquid drops on the cornea, it solidifies in less than 10 minutes using visible light and integrates to the patient’s cornea. Inside the solidified matrix, the biopolymer acts as sacrificial material supporting sustained release of exosomes which supresses the ulceration defining condition like inflammation, reverses fibrosis, regenerates nerves and restores corneal thickness.
“A bio-printed cornea or liquid cornea will allow patients a chance to regrow damaged corneas with minimal surgical intervention. It doesn’t need any stitching, we don’t need any donor cornea, and the drop fills the gap like a liquid in a mould,” Dr Sangwan added.
Speaking at the occasion, Dr. Tuhin Bhowmick, CEO and Director, Pandorum Technologies said, “Our long-standing partnership with Dr. Shroff’s Charity Eye Hospital has been extremely fruitful, and we are excited to launch the Shroff-Pandorum for Ocular Regeneration (SP-CORE) centre – a step towards successfully restoring vision in patients suffering from corneal blindness with unmet clinical needs. Our flagship product bioengineered cornea combines molecular messages with cornea-mimetic biomaterial, to promote regeneration of healthy cornea. It’s an innovative approach with demonstrated results in pre-clinical studies and currently under clinical regulatory path as an advanced therapy- a true example of Made in India, for the world. As a translation centre SP-CORE builds the bridge between the lab bench to the patient’s bedside, crucial for successful clinical translation of such a first in class, first in human therapy.”
Dr Umang Mathur, CEO and Executive Director, Dr Shroff’s Charity Eye Hospital said, “These innovative treatments hold promise for those who are visually impaired, offering them new hope as they seek improved outcomes and a better quality of life. The cutting-edge facility will also allow us to further develop advanced regenerative therapies that have the potential to transform the healthcare field by promoting tissue regeneration and repair. I would personally like to thank Dr Sangwan, whose passion and dedication to the mission of eradicating avoidable blindness has been instrumental in creating a future where there are alternative solutions to corneal blindness, apart from transplants.”

For example, Cisco is cutting its manual testing efforts nearly in half with Autopilot, freeing up valuable time for its testing teams to focus on challenges that benefit from human creativity, strategic thinking, and decision making.
“Agentic testing marks an exciting new era for companies to advance an area of their business that is still stubbornly manual and time intensive. With Test Cloud, testing teams engage interactively with AI agents that act like partners in collaborating, supporting, and working in tandem with testing professionals around the clock across the entire testing lifecycle,” said Gerd Weishaar, General Manager and Senior Vice President of Testing Products at UiPath. “Traditional testing is recognized by CIOs and CTOs as the biggest bottleneck to delivering new innovations to customers rapidly. Implementing agentic testing with Test Cloud enables faster time to market and improves production stability, which increases customer satisfaction and helps companies grow revenue.”
Capabilities of Test Cloud
UiPath Test Cloud is a full-featured testing offering that equips software testing teams with enterprise-ready, production-grade, resilient end-to-end automation for modern and enterprise applications as well as a deployment environment catered to the needs of testers.
Agentic testing extends, accelerates, and simplifies testers’ work, increasing their productivity and job satisfaction.
