Retiring On Your Own Terms With ICICI Pru Gold Pension Savings: The Growing Shift Toward Lifelong Financial Freedom...

India is undergoing a significant demographic shift. While we celebrate being a young nation, we are rapidly transitioning into a society with a rapidly aging population. By 2036, one in every seven Indians will be a senior citizen and the number is projected to surge to 230 million, according to the National Commission on Population[1].

As life expectancy rises and the traditional social security of relying solely on next-generation support is changing, retirement planning has become a necessity rather than a choice.

To address this, ICICI Prudential Life Insurance has designed ICICI Pru Gold Pension Savings, a bonus-linked pension plan built on the pillars of safety and flexibility. This pension product offers the best of both worlds, allowing customers to accumulate corpus for pension with safety of capital invested and, partial withdrawal to meet liquidity needs in case of major life events or illnesses, ensuring that a family’s financial future remains secure.

Mr. Vikas Gupta, Chief Product Officer, ICICI Prudential Life Insurance Company Limited, said, “At ICICI Prudential Life, we believe retirement should be a milestone of celebration, not financial stress. ICICI Pru Gold Pension Savings has been designed to offer certainty, growth through bonuses and the flexibility to access funds to meet life’s uncertainties in case of major life events or illnesses. By providing up to 25% emergency withdrawal feature and a corpus for retirement, this plan empowers our customers to transition from ‘active earning’ to ‘retirement income’ without compromising their dignity or aspirations. What makes the plan even more relevant to retirement planners is that it also provides health management and wellbeing services in the form of complimentary health check-ups.”

Let’s understand how this product works, consider Prateek, a 40-year-old professional. By saving ₹1.5 lakh annually for 10 years, he was able to build a retirement corpus of ₹44 lakh by the age of 60, assuming an 8% per annum rate of return or ₹25 lakh assuming a 4% per annum rate of return. The plan allows him to take up to 60% of this corpus as a tax-free lump sum to settle immediate goals like travel or a home renovation. He can receive guaranteed regular life-long income with the balance amount by purchasing an annuity product, ensuring he remains financially independent in his golden years.

In essence, ICICI Pru Gold Pension Savings redefines retirement by combining capital protection, bonus-driven growth, and emergency liquidity feature (up to 25% withdrawal). By including complimentary health check-ups and offering a  tax-free withdrawal at maturity, the plan offers a holistic, disciplined and secure path that empowers customers to achieve financial independence and peace of mind during their golden years.

Nearly 90% Of Crypto Investors Aware Of Taxation, 66% Say It Is Unfair: Coinswitch Survey Finds...

Report Highlights Demand for Predictable, Market-Aligned Crypto Tax Framework

Ahead of the upcoming Union Budget in February, CoinSwitch has released insights from a nationwide survey capturing investor sentiment on the taxation and regulation of crypto (Virtual Digital Assets – VDAs) in India.
The survey indicates a high level of awareness of India’s current crypto taxation framework. Nearly 90% of respondents reported familiarity with key provisions, including the 30% tax on gains, the absence of loss set-off or carry-forward, and the 1% TDS on transactions. Despite this awareness, a majority of respondents expressed concerns regarding the perceived fairness of the current framework. 66% believe the current crypto tax structure is unfair.
Commenting on this Mr Ashish Singhal, Co-founder of CoinSwitch, says, “The survey shows that investors are not seeking tax exemptions, but rationalisation. Respondents favour lower tax rates, loss set-off provisions, reduced TDS, and clearer regulations aligned with established financial markets. The findings indicate that investors are informed, willing to comply, and seeking a fair and predictable framework. As the Union Budget approaches, rationalising crypto taxation and providing regulatory clarity can support compliant onshore participation and contribute to a more transparent and well-regulated digital asset ecosystem.”
Taxation is also influencing market behaviour. A majority of respondents (59%) reported reduced participation in crypto investing or trading due to the prevailing tax regime. This trend suggests that the current tax structure appears to be influencing participation patterns, with potential implications for trading volumes, liquidity, and onshore market activity.

In contrast, 17% indicated increased participation, while 16% said taxation had no impact on their activity. At the same time, these segments of respondents reported stable or increased participation despite the tax regime. This suggests that some investors are adopting longer-term investment approaches, placing greater value on regulatory certainty than short-term tax considerations.
A majority of respondents favour integrating crypto into India’s mainstream financial taxation system. 61% believe crypto should be taxed similarly to equities or mutual funds. 17% prefer a separate tax framework. This reflects a preference for treatment aligned with established financial instruments.
When it comes to information sources, respondents primarily rely on crypto platforms and exchanges (30%), followed by news media (27%) and social media (25%) for updates on crypto and taxation. This highlights the role of platforms in investor education and the importance of consistent, authoritative regulatory communication.
Beyond taxation, the survey highlights the importance of broader regulatory clarity. Over 80% of respondents consider clear regulation to be important, with 60% rating it as extremely important, underscoring the view that tax reform alone is insufficient to build long-term investor confidence.

Overall, policy sentiment captured in the survey leans towards enablement, with 51% of respondents believing that crypto should be encouraged as a new asset class in India.

Nat Habit Unveils ‘Breathe Life’: A Bold New Identity Redefining The Power Of Natural Beauty...

~Marking a confident evolution from Fresh Ayurveda to Breathe Life, Nat Habit’s rebrand brings power, authority, and boldness to 100% natural beauty.~

Nat Habit, one of India’s most trusted and fastest-growing beauty and wellness brands rooted in Ayurveda, today announced a major brand transformation with the unveiling of its new identity and philosophy: “Breathe Life.” Evolving from its original positioning as ‘Fresh Ayurveda,’ the rebrand reflects Nat Habit’s transformation from a natural skincare pioneer to a powerful, purpose-led beauty movement.

With this strategic refresh, Nat Habit introduces a new logo, visual language, and packaging system that together embody the brand’s promise: “We don’t just make beauty more natural. We breathe life into your beauty.”

The rebrand goes beyond aesthetics; at its core lies a powerful philosophy: Breathe Life. It reflects Nat Habit’s belief that beauty should be nurturing yet potent, rooted in rituals, backed by science, and crafted to elevate everyday wellness. Key elements of the visual identity include:

• A chakra-inspired flower logo that replaces the earlier calendar icon, signifying harmony, vitality, renewal, and balance, echoing the brand’s philosophy of holistic well-being.
• A more grounded typeface, offering calm authority and visual clarity.
• A vibrant new color palette, led by the standout Orange, rarely seen in the category, breaks through the Ayurvedic green-brown clutter and introduces modern cues of vitality, optimism, and warmth. Complemented by signature hues like Hibiscus Pink, Tikta Green, and Ubtan Yellow, emotionally tied to product benefits.

“With Breathe Life, we are marking a confident evolution for Nat Habit from Fresh Ayurveda to a bolder, more purposeful expression of natural beauty. Our customers have always felt that Nat Habit is more than a beauty brand; it is a way of living rooted in wellbeing, vitality, and authenticity. This new identity brings that spirit to life, expressing the strength and confidence of modern Ayurveda while staying 100% natural at its core. Breathe Life reflects our belief that true beauty is about feeling alive, balanced, and deeply nurtured,” says Swagatika Das, CEO & Co-founder, Nat Habit.

To bring this refreshed identity to life and introduce Breathe Life to a wider audience, Nat Habit has partnered with acclaimed actor and wellness advocate Sahher Bambba, who unveiled the brand’s new look through a special video – https://youtube.com/shorts/zNZowxeiq1o

“Sahher isn’t just a familiar face; she perfectly embodies the spirit of Breathe Life and everything Nat Habit stands for. She represents the harmony of tradition and modernity, blending clarity with confidence, and grace with purpose. Her personal philosophy of beauty mirrors ours, making her the perfect face to usher in this new chapter. Through this collaboration, we aim to build deeper emotional resonance, and connect with a wider community seeking beauty that feels both modern and meaningful.” added Swagatika CEO &  Co-founder of Nat Habit.

This evolution also stems from introspection. Since its inception, Nat Habit has championed fresh, preservative-free formulations inspired by and rooted in Ayurveda. But as the clean beauty space matured and consumer expectations evolved, a gap emerged between the brand’s quiet impact and how it was visually perceived.

Key shifts that shaped the rebrand:

• The calendar icon, once symbolic of disciplined routines, began to feel rigid and emotionally limited.
• A fluid typeface lacked the authority to match the brand’s high-performance products.
• The green-brown color language made the brand blend into a sea of Ayurvedic sameness.
• Despite strong consumer trust, Nat Habit was often viewed as gentle, but not bold.

The new brand identity will be rolled out across all digital platforms, packaging, quick commerce, and retail touchpoints starting this October. The launch will be supported by a multi-touchpoint campaign featuring creator-led collaborations and immersive consumer experiences designed to help audiences rediscover Nat Habit’s refreshed philosophy and design language in meaningful, engaging ways.

Nat Habit’s rebrand comes at a time of accelerated growth and readiness for scale. Inching close to ₹250 crore in revenue and a growing retail footprint of 10000+ stores, the refreshed identity positions the brand for deeper expansion, cultural resonance, newer categories, and broader cultural relevance in India and globally.
