MAK India Limited Declares Breakthrough Solution to Combat All Types of Pollution
In a decisive move toward achieving a pollution-free India—and the world—MAK India Limited, a company solely dedicated to pollution solutions, led by visionary founder Manu Neethi Manickam (popularly known as MAK), proudly announces that it has developed and successfully field-tested a comprehensive, patented, world-first, field-proven, and Made-in-India solution to all major forms of pollution—air, water, and soil.
MAK India Limited Chairman Mr. Manickam Athappa Gounder and General Manager Mr. Ramesh Rajagopal said, "We have a patented, field-proven, world-first and scalable solution to all pollution—be it sewage, industrial effluents, solid waste, air emissions, or foul-smelling dumps. These technologies are developed in collaboration with premier Indian institutions like DRDO, CSIR, and SITRA. They are energy-efficient, require no chemicals, and operate at significantly lower OPEX, offering unmatched environmental and economic value. This fulfils Dr. Abdul Kalam's Vision 2020 to find a solution to all pollution." Key Highlights of the MAK Pollution Solution Portfolio 1. Sewage Water Pollution – 'Nip it at the Bud' Approach • Integrated technology from DRDO, CSIR, and MAK: Anaerobic Bio Digestion (ABD) Hybrid STP using hydrodynamic cavitation and ozone polishing.
• 100% reuse-ready water. No power required for digestion. No sludge generation.
• Enables a sewage-free society through smart disposal rules.
• Makes lakes, rivers, and groundwater potable.
• Same CAPEX, 1000°C with no external fuel.
• Recovers heat energy for: a. Waste drying (crucial in wet seasons) b. Biochar production for organic agriculture c. Potential power generation in low-sunlight areas • Complies with Zero Dump, Zero Waste, Waste-to-Wealth, and Waste-to-Energy frameworks.
• 24-hour waste-to-zero conversion.
• Visits to operating plants can be scheduled.
3. The Challenge: Why We Must Act • Water Pollution: 60% of India's water bodies are polluted by sewage and industrial discharge.
• Solid Waste: Landfills are overflowing; current systems are inefficient.

• MAK Hybrid STP: Pre-filtration → Cavitation → ABD → Filtration → AOP/Ozonation. Output is odourless, reusable water.
• FSTP: For faecal sludge evacuated from conventional septic tanks – multi-stage rapid treatment.
B. Industrial Effluent – Textile & Leather • Go Green SFD (Salt-Free Dyeing): Developed with SITRA. Removes the need for salts, reducing TDS by 70%, improving reuse and cutting costs.
• MAK 430 Inoculum: Microbial inoculum for eco-friendly tannery waste treatment.
C. Solid Waste – KILN 1000 • 1000 °C combustion, no external fuel.
• No leachate, no odour, no landfill.
• Produces organic manure, heat, electricity and biochar.
• Treats all types of municipal wastes, medical, sanitary, e-waste, and C&D waste.
• In operation since 2019, with CPCB/TNPCB compliance.
5. MAK Results & Recognition • Sewage Waste Project Sites: CRPF Coimbatore (400 KLD STP), Dr GRD College (220 KLD STP), Septic Tanks for Govt Projects at DRDA Perambalur • Solid Waste Project Sites: Chennai (Kodungaiyur – 50 TPD), Coimbatore (Dr. GRD College – 5 TPD) • Awards: CavinKare MMA Chinnikrishnan Innovation Award.
• Validated by DRDO, CSIR, SITRA.
• Technology exported to 56 countries.
6. The MAK Philosophy & Vision • "A Solution for Every Pollution." • Inspired by Dr. APJ Abdul Kalam.
• Supports Make in India, Atmanirbhar Bharat.
• Built for scalability – villages to megacities.
• Sustainable, modular, indigenous.
7. Policy, Partnership & Call to Action • Invite Central/State Governments to form a High-Level Technical Committee.
• Adopt MAK solutions under Smart City, Jal Shakti, MSME, Urban Dev., Defence.
• CPCB & SPCBs can now deploy ZLD (Zero Liquid Discharge), ZAP (Zero Air Pollution), ZD (Zero Dump) technologies.
• Industries facing closure due to pollution can now operate with confidence.
• Example: Sterlite Copper can now be revived using MAK's zero pollution system and India to become world leader in Copper.
8. Contact, Demos & Media • Live Demonstrations: On request.
• Email: info@makindia.co.in • Web: www.makindialimited.com | www.makbioprojects.com • Phone: 91 95009 91787 9. Annex: Key Data & Visuals • ABD/Hybrid STP: >95% water recovery, lifetime performance.
• Go Green SFD: 70% TDS reduction.
• KILN 1000: 100% waste-to-energy in 24 hours.
Let us work together to save Mother Earth. Let India lead the world in solving the greatest crisis of our times: Pollution.

Statsguru: Rising engine-failure incidents cast a shadow on Indian skies
The common issues identified include failures in the High-Pressure Turbine and Gear Turbo Engine systems Jayant Pankaj Listen to This Article On July 16, an IndiGo flight was forced to make an emergency landing at the Mumbai airport following a reported engine failure. Two more similar incidents involving IndiGo took place within the same week. In the wake of the Boeing AI 171 crash, concerns over aircraft safety have intensified. However, these are not isolated cases. Flight cancellations in India, particularly those caused by technical glitches, have risen in the past four years to peak in 2023, with engine failures being a major contributing factor.

Sotefin Bharat plans Rs 80 crore IPO to build parking robot unit for automated parking in Bengal
'We are in the process of launching an IPO, which will help us become Atmanirbhar in the production of robots used in automated parking systems. The robot manufacturing facility will require around Rs 40 crore, while the remaining Rs 40 crore will be largely used for debt reduction and enhancing working capital to undertake larger projects,' Sotefin Bharat Managing Director & CEO Arup Choudhuri told PTI. The entire issue will be a fresh equity offer, with no stake dilution by the promoters or existing PE funds, a top company official said. Kolkata, Jul 27 (PTI) Swiss automated parking solutions major Sotefin SA's Indian subsidiary, Sotefin Bharat, on Sunday said it will hit the capital market to raise Rs 80 crore to support indigenous manufacturing of robots for automated parking systems in West Bengal. The company has announced a new manufacturing facility at Bagnan in West Bengal's Howrah district, entailing an investment of approximately Rs 40 crore. Once fully operational with in-house robotic manufacturing capabilities, the state-of-the-art plant is expected to create over 100 jobs and significantly boost Sotefin Bharat's production capacity, Choudhuri said. The facility is projected to support the creation of over 10,000 automated car parks or 25 automated parking projects per year, he added. The equity structure of the company is evenly held by two Indian promoters—Arup Choudhuri and Jignesh Sanghvi—Swiss partner Sotefin SA, and a clutch of PE funds, each holding 25 per cent. Post IPO, the fresh issue will dilute all existing promoter holdings by 6.25 per cent, taking public shareholding to nearly 25-26 per cent, Choudhuri said. The listing will also help unlock value, and the company is currently working with merchant bankers to prepare the Draft Red Herring Prospectus (DRHP), which is expected to be filed with the regulator within a month. The company has also started exporting its systems to the US and Dubai, officials said. 'Our order book currently stands at Rs 1,000 crore, which should support a 50–60 per cent growth over the next 3–4 years,' said Executive Director Jignesh Sanghvi.

UK cos can offer telecom services in India without local office under CETA
Companies from the UK will be able to offer services in sectors such as telecom, and construction in India without setting up a local presence, under the free trade agreement signed between the two countries. The British firms will be treated on par with Indian firms. The Comprehensive Economic and Trade Agreement (CETA) was signed on July 24 in London. It may take about a year for items implementation as the free trade pact needs approval from the British Parliament. "UK companies can now provide telecom, construction, and related services in India without establishing a local presence, enjoying full national treatment, meaning they will be treated on par with Indian firms," the commerce ministry said. Services is a key chapter in the agreement as both countries are strong in different kinds of services. India enjoys a trade surplus of around $6.6 billion with the UK. The country's services exports stood at $19.8 billion and imports at $13.2 billion. In the agreement, the UK has provided a comprehensive and deep market access in 137 sub-sectors to Indian firms. On the Indian side, commitments have been extended in 108 sub-sectors, granting UK firms access to domains like accounting, auditing, financial services (with FDI capped at 74 per cent), telecom (100 per cent FDI allowed), environmental services, and auxiliary air transport services, it said.
