Future Retail E-Zone E-Commerce Website will be launched by Month-End

Life is a festival only to the wise, but this is that time of the year when everyone can celebrate even if you are otherwise! With the inception of the festival season this year, the first gift showers are from Future Retail Ltd. Future Retail Ltd, being one of the top retailers in the country offers its customers, quantity and quality shopping. They serve customers in 95 cities across the country.

Now that electronics has been added to the most wanted list of our day to day life, Future Retail will be introducing its online platform ‘omnichannel’ for its electronic store E-zone in a fortnight, thus beckoning the festival season.

Future Retail E-Zone E-Commerce

The Future Retail Ltd, Joint Managing Director Rakesh Biyani remarked to PTI Mumbai that, they will be introducing omnichannel to e-zone by the end of this month. He said that the omnichannel platform will let the customers buy electronic goods like cell phones, television sets and items which people purchase for the purpose of gifting their friends and relatives during the festival period.

Omnichannel, the online platform, will be concentrating on multiple channels like mobiles, online and brick and mortar stores for selling their merchandise. The Managing Director also made a point that the company had made a tie-up with German enterprise resource planning company SAP which would facilitate the launch of this omnichannel.

He emphasized that the launch of the portal was done having an eye on the festive season, and to acknowledge the same, aggressive offers and persuading discounts will be awarded to the customers. Kunal Bahl, the founder of snap deal, stands first here, by bringing great products and greater offers for this season.

On the other hand, the co-founder of Localbanya, a year and a half old, online grocery firm, Amit Bharatiya said, they will be increasing their products from 14,000 to 20,000 in the next six months.

This news undoubtedly, makes us wait for the festivals to come all the more. What else can be more exhilarating than shopping around, in the comfort of our own home and yet buying all that we want! I guess, simply browsing through this omnichannel platform would give us the joy of window shopping, let alone buying anything at all!

I hope, there wouldn’t be anyone who would deny my opinion. If at all you do, just let us know. So, be geared for the launch of the portal.

Remember!! Your shopping is just a click away!

India’s leading Electronics Company, Samsung Electronics has reached out to their customers and has spread out their service network by launching its sixth modernistic branded customer service plaza in Hyderabad. They have extended their flagship customer service plazas to six after Delhi, Mumbai, Pune, Noida and Chennai.

Samsung Launches Sixth Branded Customer Service Plaza

Samsung has flourished as one of the largest customer service networks in every nook and corner of India. Its 24X7 hour call centers with more than 10,000 trained experts aim at providing top notch after-sales services which are aimed at pleasing Samsung customers. The launch of these Service Plazas is an evidence of the company’s dedication towards meeting the demand of their customers.

Samsung is in the process of intensifying their service touch points with around 20 Customer Service Plazas and over 800 Mobile Service Plazas all over India. All the services are backed by a network of nearly 50parts warehouses and 4 world-class training academies. All the service centers operate on the Classic Samsung look and feel.

The Customer Service Plaza is an advancement towards the setting up of higher standards for the customers and endeavors to provide all the services under a single roof including particular zones for product illustrations, interactions with customers’ and one to one service for handheld devices.

One to one service is a communicative repair facility for repair in front of the customer and therefore, making sure that there is full transparency in terms of the charges of repair and also the replacement of the parts. These plazas offer a same day repair service for mobile handsets or they lend you a standby set if your handset is not repaired on the same day.

An uncompromising service tracking process is adhered to, to track each and every call to assure “First time fix”. The plazas are in service all days of the week between 10am to 8pm.Also, a pick and drop facility is also accessible for selective Smartphone models. The plazas also take eco-friendly steps to cut down e-waste by reprocessing and recycling products with the STAR program (Samsung Take-back and Recycling program).

These plazas are state of art service centers ensuring maximum level of satisfaction of the Samsung owners. I think these plazas are a major step towards meeting the expectations of the customers after buying products from Samsung.

These plazas will be beneficial to customers all over India and their problems regarding any product will be solved without any hassle. This will also ensure timely repair of products and also transparency in the repair. So, I think Samsung should move towards opening more and more customer friendly plazas in India.

Samsung is taking steps towards ingenious customer service plans with innovative approaches and programs, paying better attention to the overall experiences of the customer, infrastructure improvement and exceptional service deliveries.

UC Browser LGBT Awareness Survey Report released

September 22, 2014

LGBT community or GLBT community commonly refers to gay community. Supreme court of India has recently made it mandatory to include this community as 3rdtype of gender. UC browser is an internet browser for developed for the mobile phones by UCweb. It was first used in china and later was adopted by India. UC browser has conducted survey on LGBT for creating awareness about this community.

UC Browser LGBT Awareness Survey

The aim of the survey is to get a comparable which will help for the understanding of how gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgender (LGBT) people are living in the society.

According to section 377 of Indian penal code in 1860 the intercourse of homosexuals is considered to be offensive and would lead life imprisonment. In 2013 Supreme court of India has overturned the decision lower court against the objection of section 377.

UC browser has conducted a survey on creating awareness on LGBT across the India. This survey was available for the Indian residents of the age 18 and above. A total of 6237 respondents participated in this survey, including 4991 male, 1222 female and 24 respondents who did not disclose their gender. While only 32.9% respondents are aware of Section 377 of Indian Penal Code which criminalizes sexual activities “against the order of nature”, a slightly higher 41.8% of respondents know what LGBT stands for.

The survey asked a range of questions about LGBT people’s experiences including:

public perceptions and responses tohomophobia and/or transphobia;
discrimination;
rights awareness;
safe environment;
violence and harassment;
the social context of being an LGBT person;
personal characteristics, including age and income group.

The major problem is that there is no enough knowledge among the citizens of India. Half of the people who attempted the survey has no idea of the term LGBT. The problem comes right from the schooling as they are not providing the adequate knowledge about the LGBT and their rights. In this web survey, the respondents are self-selected as they volunteered to participate in the survey.

This may exclude respondents who are less motivated to take part, introduce a potential for bias in the results if the sample is far from being representative of the surveyed populations a whole. The people who have given the answers might have given correctly because they volunteered themselves. This is the advantage of the web survey.

As we have seen that the total respondents to the survey was approximately 6237, this is a very less number compared to the population present in India. The above statement suggests that the people are unaware of the situation. The upcoming generation is more positive and vibrant toward the new and modern society. The ideology of the present generation must change for the betterment of the society.

The people must be known about this kind of surveys by proper marketing or advertising. The citizens of India below the age 18 should be provided with the basic knowledge of LGBT and the people above the age 18 must develop themselves to the modern society about accepting the LGBT and come into their conscience. There are many survey being conducted on this topic and the people must give their views about this situation and be the change to the world.

The flat graphics feature, which is often used in the IOS by the tech giants Apple, has been used for the screen to clearly display the significant feeds. The Executive Managing Director and Vice-Chairman of ADS Securities consider the GUI as the connection between the financial broking and the new technology.

He says:”Through the new GUI clients can access multiple-asset classes selecting the level of sophistication and functionality which suits their trading. From informed individuals through to institutions the GUI provides a uniquely scalable trading experience.

Before the GUI got released, it was beta tested by some of the company’s trusted clients. Andrew Rossiter, Global head of IT at ADS Securities, says: “Introducing a new GUI we wanted to have an access point to our services which reflects the technology and innovation which has gone into developing the OREX Optim platform. This was never going to be a simple job of introducing new icons and changing the page around, we wanted a completely different look, feel and customer journey. The platform has the architecture in place to deliver great prices and execution with low rejection rates. We wanted a GUI which reflects this level of delivery and sophistication.”

With the multi-asset platform of OREX Optim, clients now have the freedom to use the single screen to deal with all their financial instruments. Its design is also expected to be used for smartphones and tablets.

The IT head also stated : “When building OREX Optim we had the advantage of not having legacy technology, we started with a blank piece of paper and designed the platform to provide the trading clients want. However, to provide multi-asset trading off a single GUI requires a very clear screen with good functionality and features, and one which provides traders with the essential data they need”. Investing high in technology has been the strategy of ADS Securities to become a leader among all the trading platforms of the world. It also has its business agencies in countries such as Hong Kong, Singapore and London.
