SEBI Bans DCHL Promoters For 2 Years

The Securities and Exchange Board of India (SEBI) has banned the promoters of Deccan Chronicle Holdings Ltd (DCHL) from the securities market for more than two years and have imposed penalties of around Rs 8.20 Crores for various breaches.


The market regulator imposed a fine of Rs 4 Crores on DCHL, Rs 1.30 Crores each on T.Venkattram Reddy, T. Vinayak Ravi Reddy, Rs 20 lakh on N Krishnan and Rs 10 lakh on V Shankar. “We restrain T. Venkattram Reddy, T. Vinayak Ravi Reddy, PK Iyer, N Krishnan and V Shankar from accessing the securities market and ban them from buying, selling or otherwise dealing in securities, directly or indirectly, or being associated with the securities market in a manner for a period ranging from one year to two years,” SEBI said in a statement.


The SEBI directions follow a probe conducted by the market regulator between October 2011 to December 2012 wherein various violations of Prohibition of Fraudulent and Unfair Trade Practices (PFUTP) and insider trading regulations were found. It was found that DCHL has underreported the loan amounts, interest payments and finance charges in the books of accounts of the company during the financial year 2008-09 to 2010-11 and have misled the investors and shareholders by such manipulated financials of the company and transferred the outstanding loans in the books of DCM.

Hypergro.ai Secures Rs 7 Crore Funding in Series A Round 

Ali Waghbakriwala

Hypergro.ai, an AI-powered platform for creating and converting videos, has raised Rs 7 crore in a pre-Series A investment round led by Eternal Capital. 

VCats, Astir Ventures, Silver Needle Ventures, and FAAD Network were among the notable investors who took part in the round.

The company claims that the investment would strengthen its position as a leader in AI-driven marketing automation and accelerate its global expansion and innovation.

Hypergro.ai was formed in 2022 by Rituraj Biswas and Neha Soman to address the fundamental inefficiencies of digital marketing, including fragmented data, manual execution, and a lack of real-time knowledge.

The startup’s AI-powered platform, which optimises performance campaigns, engages leads with AI-powered sales agents, and automates video creation, enables brands to execute marketing strategies at a never-before-seen scale.

Rituraj Biswas, Co-founder & CEO of Hypergro.ai, said, “At Hypergro.ai, we combine AI-driven content generation, real-time campaign optimisation, and automated lead engagement into a single intelligent system. This ensures brands drive maximum revenue impact with minimal effort.”

The Bengaluru-based company claims to have created videos 92% faster and at 80% less expense than traditional methods.  Additionally, because businesses are large, it offers AI-automated video personalisation, aspect ratio, and format adjustments, satisfying their demands for multi-platform video optimisation and custom video content tailored to specific audiences and regions.

At the time of this funding, companies are rapidly deploying AI-driven automation to increase revenue.  In addition to quickly penetrating foreign markets like the U.S., APAC, and GCC, Hypergro.ai said it is investing in AI R&D, strategic hiring, and enterprise relationships.

Hypergro.ai intends to raise money in a Series A financing round in the next six to eight months in order to further incorporate AI into enterprise ad-tech solutions. The company hopes to rule the worldwide AI marketing ERP market by 2027.

To support brands in e-commerce, retail, entertainment, gaming, travel, and hospitality, it currently collaborates with companies like ClearTrip, Newton School, Gameskraft, and Docube, among others.
