Starting a business is never easy, more so for women. It is hard to find validation and convince people that you mean business.

Movie producer turned interior designer #GauriKhan, who ventured into creating luxurious spaces has not had it easy with her brand Gauri Khan Designs.
In conversation with @BiIndia, #GauriKhan says it is difficult for people to have real faith in you. “There will be a lot of people especially in my field, when they will have faith in you it is because you are married to so & so but on the other hand it's a drawback.” said Khan.
Gauri is looking at expanding her footprint in the design world. And, 199 lucky families will be able to live in homes designed by her and clothing designer @ManishMalhotra.

The duo have collaborated with @bonitodesigns, a premium interior design company to curate bespoke homes.
#GauriKhan is also about to launch a pret line of her designs soon. Gauri Khan Design is expected to go pan-India with this collaboration which has been just from Mumbai so far.

Khan goes on to explain how she always felt like an artist from inside and believed in her passion.
Passion and love for what you do along with hard work, is how #GauriKhan describes her journey and gives her two cents to budding woman entrepreneurs.

“If you have love and passion towards what you do, you will achieve success and business will come your way.” said Khan.

Decoded: How the #Rupee trade settlement is tied to India’s trade deficit and forex reserves

businessinsider.in/finance/news/w…

By @jainrounak
India is a trade deficit country, meaning it imports more than it exports — this forces the country to maintain large forex reserves. The ongoing pressure on the #Rupee and its decline against #dollar pushed #RBI to put in place a mechanism to allow international trade in rupees.
Since India is a net importer – with its imports exceeding exports by over $87 billion in 2021-22 – and the value of Indian #Rupee declining consistently, #RBI’s latest decision to allow international trade in rupees is expected to reduce the pressure on India’s forex reserves.

Explained: International trade settlement in #Rupees and why #RBI is doing it

businessinsider.in/finance/news/w…

By @jainrounak
#RBI’s efforts to keep the #Rupee stable and cut down the use of the US Dollar – a decades-old habit that most of the world seems unable to shake off – has seen an earnest beginning with the central bank now allowing invoicing of international trade in Rupees.

#RupeeVsDollar
What is international trade settlement in #Rupees?

When countries import and export goods and services, they have to make payments in a foreign currency. Since the US Dollar is the world’s reserve currency, most of these transactions are entered into US dollars.
