Pynk would be the first
women's fashion wear
brand available in the general trade category, Todi said. "There are a lot of women's fashion wear brands, but they are in organised retail. Our target is general merchandise. The price point for the brand would be Rs 500-1000, which would be the most moderate option in this category," he added.
Todi said the company would spend Rs 23-25 crore on promotion and has roped in Shraddha Kapoor as Pynk's brand ambassador. "The promotional spend would remain the same in the second year as well," he said. Commenting on Cozi, he added that it would be the first mid-premium brand in its category in the country to touch the Rs 1,000-crore mark.

Slice SFB aiming to close FY26 in the black; not looking to raise any capital
Slice Small Finance Bank has turned profitable on a monthly basis and is aiming to close FY26 in the black, a top official has said. The entity, which came out of a surprising merger between the fintech Slice and the North East SFB a few months ago, is adequately capitalised and not looking to raise any capital, its executive director Rajan Bajaj told PTI. The current focus is to build a pan-India business using the low-cost digital channels, and the entity is not interested in any more mergers, Bajaj said, adding that it may look at transitioning to a universal bank in the next five years. Before the merger, the North East SFB had reported a loss of Rs 441 crore, and Slice was also reporting losses. "We have turned profitable post-tax on a monthly basis and will close the year in profits," Bajaj said. The bank is adequately capitalised and the buffers will also be supported by the profits, he added. As per recent media reports, the bank was aiming to raise up to USD 300 million in capital. It is adding up to 3 lakh new accounts to its base on the back of digital journeys, Bajaj said, pointing out that the savings bank interest rate offering is at par with the RBI's repo rate and the fixed deposit offerings are a notch higher, which is helping in attracting customers. The pace of account opening is the fifth or the sixth fastest in the industry and at par with much bigger rivals, he said. On the lending front, it does consumer credit including unsecured personal loans and business credit which includes loans against property, he said, stressing that the focus is on serving people who may be underserved by the banking system. Aiming for a big increase in its borrowers and loan portfolio, the bank launched a UPI-based credit card on Saturday, Bajaj said, pointing out that over 30 crore of UPI users can be the potential target audience for such an offering. The bank stands to make an interchange of up to 1 per cent depending on where the credit facility is availed, and will also make revenues from rollovers and fees, he said. Bajaj said its personal credit vertical has been able to deliver credit at a cost which is a tenth of the industry courtesy digital inputs, and added that the credit costs are also 30 per cent lower than the industry average because of the analytics engine which is used for diligence. The bank also launched a 'UPI-powered bank branch' in Bengaluru, which can be used by any bank's customers for a slew of transactions, including cash deposits into any account using cash accepting machine, and then remitting the money to any mobile number, Bajaj said.

Job offer from the UAE? What you must know before signing
The UAE continues to be one of the most sought-after destinations for job seekers across Asia and Africa. A large number of applications from India, Pakistan, and the Philippines in the Gulf region target jobs in the UAE, especially in sectors like accounting, hospitality, and construction. In addition to this, the UAE remains the top career destination for young professionals in the Arab world. A YouGov survey from 2023 of 1,502 Arab nationals aged 18 to 24 found that 86.6% considered working in the UAE either 'somewhat' or 'very' appealing.

Live Events But experts warn that as demand rises, so does the risk of falling prey to fraudulent job offers, especially in high-volume sectors like accounting, hospitality, and construction. In this environment, verifying a job offer, particularly from small or medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), has become crucial. What the law says An offer letter alone is not a legally binding contract. It is a preliminary agreement that outlines the proposed terms of employment. For an offer to become legally enforceable, it must be followed by a formal employment contract that mirrors the offer's terms. This contract must be signed by both parties and registered with the Ministry of Human Resources and Emiratisation (Mohre). Also Read: UAE teens are trying this 'harmless' hack for a quick high, and parents don't even know the harm Use of standard contracts required According to Ministerial Decree No. 46 of 2022, all employers hiring for mainland positions must use the standard contract format approved by Mohre when applying for a work permit. The employment contract may include additional benefits not mentioned in the offer letter, as long as they do not contradict UAE labour laws. Further, Administrative Resolution No. 38 of 2022 requires employers to use standard e-forms issued by Mohre for work permits, offer letters, and employment contracts. How to spot a genuine offer letter Job seekers can contact Mohre directly to verify whether an offer letter is legitimate. The ministry can confirm whether the employer submitted the offer as part of a work permit application. A genuine process involves the employer uploading the signed offer letter using Mohre's e-form template, and a work permit application is submitted along with necessary documents and fees. Once the permit is approved, the employment contract is signed and registered. If the employer has not started this process, or if no permit has been applied for, the job offer may not be valid under UAE law. Also Read: This Dubai campaign is handing out 2 million free ice creams and drinks to workers this summer What if the offer is withdrawn? Mohre is not legally bound to intervene if the employer backs out before the employment contract is signed and the permit is issued. The candidate may pursue a civil claim through the UAE courts in such cases. Compensation may be awarded if the jobseeker suffered financial loss or other damages due to the withdrawn offer. Additional support Job seekers can also approach the UAE embassy or their home country consulates to verify job offers. These diplomatic missions often assist in confirming an employer's credentials and offer authenticity. If doubts persist, it is also advisable to seek legal consultation, as this article only compiled information publicly available on the internet. Some law firms or the Mohre helpline may offer further guidance.
