Sirca Paints Hosts an Exclusive Architects' Meet in Gwalior
India PR Distribution Gwalior (Madhya Pradesh) [India], July 12: In a bid to further strengthen its presence and relationships within the design and architectural community, Sirca Paints India Ltd. recently hosted an exclusive Architects' Meet in the historic city of Gwalior. The event brought together some of the most forward-thinking architects and interior designers in the region, creating a vibrant platform for dialogue, collaboration, and creative exchange. As one of India's leading brands in luxury wood coatings and decorative finishes, including the Italian wall textures by OIKOS Italy, Sirca has consistently aligned itself with design excellence and innovation. The Gwalior meet was a natural extension of the brand's ethos -- to not just provide premium finishes, but to be an active participant in shaping the visual and material culture of modern India. The event served as a gathering ground for established voices and emerging talents in design, unified by a shared belief in quality, detail, and craft. Set against the elegant backdrop of the Jehan Numa Palace Hotel, the evening unfolded as a sophisticated networking experience infused with warm hospitality and rich conversations. Far beyond a typical corporate showcase, this was a celebration of relationships -- a space where Sirca's signature wood coatings and Oikos wall textures met the minds that shape spaces. The purpose of the evening was clear: to foster meaningful connections between Sirca and a curated circle of design professionals from Gwalior and surrounding regions. This wasn't about product display alone -- it was about listening, exchanging, and finding synergy in ideas. Architects and designers interacted closely with Sirca's team, exploring potential collaborations, new materials, and how the brand could be integrated meaningfully into future projects. Among the key attendees were Malay Gadkar from Evenleap Design Studio, known for their experimental forms and understated luxury; Chirayu Agarwal of Sky High, who brings contemporary aspirations into harmony with functional spaces; and Rahul Dewani from Wallnut Engineers, a firm associated with bold structural expression and refined detailing. Also present was Vicky Gidwani of Gidwani Associates, who blends traditional design principles with modern aesthetics; Shailesh Makhijani and Greesh Gupta from Aantrik Interiors & Architecture, celebrated for their seamless integration of materiality and spatial storytelling; and Ravi Bagga of Bagga Associates, a longstanding contributor to Gwalior's evolving design landscape. Throughout the evening, attendees had the opportunity to experience Sirca's latest surface solutions firsthand. From Italian wood coatings to innovative Oikos wall textures, the finishes sparked discussions on their application across residential, commercial, and bespoke luxury projects. The event not only spotlighted Sirca's evolving product line but reaffirmed the brand's commitment to being more than a supplier -- to being a collaborator, a creative partner, and a voice in the wider design discourse. For Sirca, this meet was not just about showcasing what's possible with finishes, but about understanding what's next in the language of space. As the evening came to a close, what lingered wasn't just the memory of elegant textures and flawless finishes, but the energy of connection -- the promise of new ideas and shared ambitions. Through events like these, Sirca continues to invest in the relationships that inspire its future. For more information, visit or follow @sircapaints on Instagram.

Trust on Overdrive: How Kimbal's People-First Playbook Catapulted It to India's Top Workplaces in 2025
India PR Distribution New Delhi [India], June 27: Kimbal's meteoric rise-from 40 humble heads-in-hoodies to 450 passionate professionals in just 24 months has now been crowned 34th spot on the 2025 India's Great Mid-Size Workplaces Index from Great Place to Work®. What sets this energy-tech disruptor apart? Radical freedom baked into every job description. Freedom is the operating system Employees have complete autonomy over their working hours and time off. "No approvals needed." While a few roles follow fixed schedules for operational continuity, the majority have full flexibility to work at their preferred times and hours if it has no impact on the outcome. Budgets without bureaucracy There's no multi-layer approval tree for travel, tools, or training. Or for that matter, anything. A single guideline governs every expense: Do it with responsibility and care. The result: swift decisions, wise habits, and zero red tape. 360-degree feedback in real-time At Kimbal, feedback flows quickly, objectively, and in all directions. They don't wait for quarterly reviews to do that. Everyone is encouraged to give and receive input regularly, creating a culture of continuous learning and collective growth. Rewards wired to values Kimbal celebrates both the destination and the journey taken to reach it. Aligning with the company's values and taking full ownership of the process carry as much weight as the final results. Missteps are regarded as vital lessons--they believe in failing fast to learn faster. "Our culture isn't perks; it's radical trust," says Kimbal's CHRO, Ms. Jaya Suri. "When people feel safe to think big and act fast, growth becomes an inevitable outcome." For Kimbal, the Great Place to Work® plaque is less a finish line than a pit stop. As the company continues its swift expansion and a twelve million smart meter rollout, its greatest asset remains the same: a workforce unshackled by traditional rules--and united by an audacious vision to rewire India's energy future.
