It also acts as a hub for multilingual assistance, with a dedicated Hindi-speaking team now available to guide patients throughout every step of their fertility journey, from consultation to treatment and follow-up care.

Nearly 81% advertisements on OTT platforms during ICC Cricket World Cup 2023 promoted unhealthy products: Study
A staggering 80.9 per cent of all advertisements aired on over-the-top (OTT) platforms during the International Cricket Council (ICC) Men's World Cup held in India in October-November 2023 promoted tobacco, alcohol, and high-fat, sugar and salt (HFSS) products, a study has found. The study led by the Indian Council of Medical Research-National Institute of Cancer Prevention and Research (ICMR-NICPR) was published recently in the journal Frontiers in Digital Health. Dr Prashant Kumar Singh, lead author and senior scientist at ICMR-NICPR, told The Indian Express that the study provides the first systematic evidence from a low- and middle-income country showing how sporting events have become vehicles for promoting products that contribute to non-communicable diseases. A team of experts from ICMR-NICPR, Vital Strategies, Institute of Public Health Bengaluru, and AIIMS New Delhi conducted the research. Five trained researchers independently recorded data for cross-verification to ensure rigour and reduce biases. 'As India aims to reduce premature non-communicable disease (NCD) deaths by 25 per cent by 2025, we cannot allow commercial interests to undermine public health through unregulated digital platforms. Immediate policy intervention is crucial,' said Dr Shalini Singh, senior author and director of ICMR-NICPR. She also stressed that their findings revealed a concerning loophole in digital advertising regulation. 'While we have strict laws against tobacco and alcohol advertising, companies are exploiting OTT platforms through surrogate advertisements, particularly targeting the massive Indian cricket audience. With 422 million viewers exposed to these promotions, this represents a public health crisis hiding in plain sight,' said Dr Singh. Key findings The analysis of 341 hours of streaming across 48 matches revealed disturbing patterns of targeted marketing such as that 80.9 per cent of all advertisements (1,769 out of 2,118) promoted unhealthy products, 90.7 per cent of advertisements during India matches belonged to the unhealthy products category, and 86.7 per cent of surrogate tobacco advertisements were specifically aired during matches involving India. It also found that 60.6 per cent of unhealthy advertisements during over-breaks targeted products commonly consumed by children. A total of 422 million viewers in India were exposed to these promotions. Celebrity endorsements were common, with 17.5 per cent featuring Bollywood actors and 17 per cent featuring cricket celebrities. Children particularly vulnerable The study identified children as especially vulnerable targets, with edible products commonly consumed by them comprising the highest frequency of unhealthy advertisements during cricket breaks. Products included chocolates, potato chips, noodles, and biscuits – all heavily marketed during peak viewing times. Despite existing laws such as the Cigarettes and Other Tobacco Products Act (COTPA), 2003, and the Cable Television Networks Regulation Act, 1995, that prohibit direct tobacco and alcohol advertising, the study revealed that companies successfully circumvent these restrictions through surrogate advertising on digital platforms. 'The research showed a stark disparity in advertising patterns – surrogate tobacco advertisements were predominantly displayed during India matches (86.7 per cent) while being negligible during other countries' matches, indicating targeted marketing strategies,' Dr Singh said. Researchers called for immediate action, updated regulatory frameworks to encompass digital and OTT platforms, stricter enforcement mechanisms for surrogate advertising, specific protections for children given their vulnerability to advertisement-induced behaviours, and comprehensive monitoring of OTT platforms with clear consequences for non-compliance.

Indian diaspora sends home $135 billion, the highest remittances on record
India has remained the world's top recipient of remittances for over a decade, with inflows more than doubling since 2016-17, when they totalled $61 billion read more US Dollar banknotes are seen in this illustration taken July 17, 2022. Representational Image/Reuters India received $135.46 billion in remittances from its global diaspora in the fiscal year ending March 31, the highest on record, according to new data from the Reserve Bank of India. The amount marked a 14 per cent increase from the previous year, with remittances continuing to be a major driver of the country's current account flows. The RBI said the inflows, classified under 'private transfers,' accounted for more than 10 per cent of India's gross current account flows of $1 trillion in FY25. STORY CONTINUES BELOW THIS AD India has remained the world's top recipient of remittances for over a decade, with inflows more than doubling since 2016-17, when they totalled $61 billion, Economic Times reported. 'The strong growth in remittances has persisted despite weakness in crude oil prices,' said Gaura Sengupta, chief economist at IDFC First Bank. She attributed the increase to a higher share of skilled Indian workers migrating to developed markets, particularly the United States, United Kingdom and Singapore. RBI data show these three countries contributed 45 per cent of total remittances. The share from Gulf Cooperation Council countries has declined, partly due to lower oil prices, which typically influence remittance flows from the region. India remains one of the lowest-cost countries for sending $200 in remittances, according to RBI research. Software services and business services were the other major contributors to current account inflows in FY25, each bringing in over $100 billion. Together with remittances, these three sources accounted for more than 40 per cent of total current account receipts. A recent RBI staff report noted that remittance inflows consistently exceeded foreign direct investment, underlining their role as a stable source of external financing. In FY25, remittances amounted to 47 per cent of India's merchandise trade deficit of $287 billion. STORY CONTINUES BELOW THIS AD India ranked first globally in remittance receipts last year, followed by Mexico with $68 billion and China with $48 billion, according to World Bank estimates. Remittances represent cross-border household income, typically from migrants sending money home. The International Monetary Fund classifies them under two categories in a country's balance of payments: compensation of employees under primary income, and personal transfers under secondary income. In India's case, personal transfers, largely comprising money sent by workers abroad for family maintenance and withdrawals from non-resident deposit accounts, make up the bulk of recorded remittances, according to an RBI paper published in March.
