SMFG India Credit Sets Guinness World Record for Largest Cattle Welfare Lesson

SMFG India Credit has made history by achieving a Guinness World Record for the ‘Largest Cattle Welfare Lesson (Multiple Venues)’ with 517 participants across 6 venues in India. This milestone was accomplished as part of the company’s 7th edition of Pashu Vikas Day (PVD), the largest one-day cattle care camps across the country.

In India, approximately 65-70% of the rural population relies on agriculture or agriculture-related activities for their livelihood. Hence, cattle and livestock play a crucial role in their livelihood generation activities and financial wellbeing. Recognizing this unbreakable bond, SMFG India Credit celebrated the 7th edition of Pashu Vikas Day under the theme ‘Mera Pashu Mera Parivar,’ reinforcing the importance of livestock in the lives of these rural families.
The annual PVD event also saw active participation of more than 6,000 employees, reinforcing the company’s commitment to rural welfare.

With a strong Pan-India presence of 1000+ branches, our primary focus is on Tier-2+ locations, with nearly 90% of our branches strategically positioned in these regions. In fact, over the last two years, we have added around 300 branches, all located in Tier-2+ geographies. Our goal is to drive financial inclusion by providing the right products and financial solutions, enabling us to serve communities at every stage of their life cycle.
I would also like to extend my heartfelt congratulations to each of our dedicated employees for their outstanding commitment and hard work in achieving the Guinness World Record for the Largest Cattle Welfare Lesson across multiple venues. It is truly heartening to see that this year’s Pashu Vikas Day not only surpassed expectations in cattle care, but also introduced specialized knowledge sessions across multiple venues in India, which earned us the Guinness World Record.”
Mr. Swaminathan Subramanian, Chief Operating Officer of SMFG India Credit, said, “The recognition received from Guinness World Records for holding largest cattle welfare lesson across multiple venues is a proud and defining moment for each and every one at SMFG India Credit. As a company, we have etched our name in the history books on an international level, and it gives us the belief to continue working towards uplifting the communities we serve at large through innovative and sustainable socio-economic initiatives.

Grand Inauguration of ‘Mamma’s Blessing IVF and Birthing Paradise’ in Vrindavan

A new ray of hope has begun in the religious and spiritual city of Vrindavan. A state-of-the-art hospital, named ‘Mamma’s Blessing IVF and Birthing Paradise,’ which is fully integrated with Vedic values, was ceremoniously inaugurated with great fanfare on Sunarkh Road. This institution is dedicated to couples who desire to have healthy, cultured, and prosperous children.
The special ceremony was graced by highly respected and spiritual figures from the Radha Vallabh Sampraday.

Another major feature of this center is that it will be the first in India to install the Robotic ICSI (Intracytoplasmic Sperm Injection) system, which will make the embryo creation process technically more secure, advanced, and successful. Vedic mantras will resonate throughout the center at all times, creating positive energy and providing the unborn child with a pure, sacred, and peaceful environment from the very beginning.
Dr. Shobha Gupta, the Medical Director of Mamma’s Blessing IVF and Birthing Paradise and a renowned IVF specialist, explained that the reason for establishing this center in the holy land of Vrindavan is deeply spiritual. She believes that the energy of Vrindavan, the blessings of saints, and the spiritual atmosphere here positively influence the physical and mental development of the unborn child. This is why the center not only focuses on medical care but also emphasizes spiritual healing and the imparting of values.
The institution aims not only to help childless couples conceive but also to give birth to children who are physically healthy, mentally strong, and rich in values. The goal is to bring joy to parents’ lives and, in the future, contribute to the progress of society and the nation.
Dr. Shobha Gupta mentioned that the service is available to residents of Vrindavan and surrounding areas, as well as people from other parts of India and abroad. Couples who wish to conceive using Vedic methods, with the pure sound of mantras and energy, now have an ideal option in this institution.

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.”
