JBCN Mulund’s Cyclothon Brings 100 Families Together for a Greener Mumbai
1st April, 2025 Mumbai: JBCN International School, Mulund, brought together learners, parents, and staff for an engaging Cyclothon to advocate for sustainable urban living and climate action. This inspiring journey began in December with a masterclass by Mumbai’s first Bicycle Mayor, Firoza Dadan, a climate action trailblazer. She shared her mission for sustainable mobility through the Smart Commute Foundation’s Cycle Chala City Bacha initiative, aiming to make cycling a preferred mode of commute and a way of life in Mumbai, planting the seed for Cyclothon 1.0. Held on Sunday morning, the Cyclothon was an exciting step towards promoting cleaner air and sustainable forms of mobility, especially cycling.
Dr. Viswanathan Iyer, Neurosurgeon and Bicycle Mayor of Mumbai, a proponent of cycling as an eco-friendly and fast mode of transport, spearheaded the event. In support of the movement, Decathlon Viviana partnered with JBCN International School to encourage families and help normalise the practice of cycling in their everyday lives.
The Cyclothon kicked off at 6:30 AM, with more than 150 participants – nearly 100 families – coming together to advocate for change through action. Riding through a thoughtfully curated route, they set a new example for their young learners, highlighting the importance of cyclist-friendly urban spaces and a sustainable lifestyle.
Speaking at the event, Dr. Viswanathan Iyer, said, ” ’Catch them young’ was the mantra. The young children are very aware of sustainability and pollution control, and what better way to show that than a Cyclothon. JBCN International School has taken an initiative worth emulating.”
Ms. Padma Negi, Principal, JBCN International School, Mulund, expressed immense pride in the initiative, stating, “At JBCN, we are proud that our learners are the future, and they understand the importance of sustainable practices from a young age. This Cyclothon is a step towards making eco-friendly commuting an everyday reality. It is truly heartening to see our learners and parents actively participating in this mission.”

Mumbai Real Estate Sees Record Stamp Duty, Premium Sales in FY25
Mumbai’s real estate market capped off FY 2024–25 on a robust note, clocking over 15,603 property registrations in March 2025, a 10.3% year-on-year (YoY) increase, according to data from the Inspector General of Registration (IGR) accessed by Knight Frank India.
Stamp duty collections for the month touched ₹1,597 crore, the highest ever recorded in a single month, reflecting a 45% YoY surge. The record-breaking revenue was primarily driven by a notable rise in high-value property transactions and sustained demand for premium homes.
On a month-on-month (MoM) basis, March saw property registrations rise by 29%, while stamp duty collections jumped 71%, making it the most active month for Mumbai’s real estate market in the past year. Residential properties accounted for 80% of the total registrations in March, underscoring the strong sentiment among homebuyers.
The daily stamp duty collections grew from ₹35 crore in April 2024 to ₹52 crore in March 2025, while daily property registrations rose from 388 to 503 units during the same period, reinforcing the trend of increased traction in the mid-to-premium housing segments.
For the entire financial year FY 2024–25, Mumbai recorded 143,948 property registrations, marking a 9% YoY growth compared to 132,723 registrations in the previous fiscal. Stamp duty collections for the year increased by 22%, further validating the market’s shift towards higher-value transactions.
Here is what real estate industry leaders have to say:
Mr. Prashant Sharma, President, NAREDCO Maharashtra
“The consistent rise in Mumbai’s property registrations, surpassing the 15,000 mark in March 2025, is a strong testimony to the city’s enduring real estate appeal. The 10.3% YoY growth in registrations and a remarkable 45% surge in stamp duty collections reflect both the growing aspiration for homeownership and the significant momentum in premium housing. This performance, driven by stable economic conditions, robust infrastructure development, and growing confidence in the market, reaffirms that Mumbai continues to lead India’s real estate transformation. We expect this momentum to accelerate further with anticipated interest rate easing and continued government push for urban infrastructure.”Ms. Shraddha Kedia-Agarwal, Director, Transcon Developers
“The impressive growth in property registrations and stamp duty collections in March 2025 clearly indicates a shift in buyer sentiment towards quality living and long-term investment. With a rise in transactions for high-value homes and an increasing preference for larger apartments, it’s evident that homebuyers are prioritizing comfort, lifestyle, and future-ready infrastructure. We have seen a similar uptick in demand across our premium developments, especially in well-connected suburban micro-markets. This data underlines the growing maturity of Mumbai’s real estate market.”Mr. Nishant Deshmukh, Founder and Managing Partner, Sugee Group
“The March 2025 property registration numbers is a reflection of Mumbai’s real estate strength and the increasing buyer confidence in long-term investments. A 22% YoY growth in stamp duty collection for the full financial year clearly shows an upswing in high-value transactions, and we’re witnessing this trend across premium micro-markets including Central Suburbs. The rise in demand for larger homes is particularly encouraging, as it reinforces the growing preference for spacious living in the city’s evolving urban fabric. Our projects have been strategically positioned to cater to this very need, and the market response has been very encouraging.”Mr. Samyak Jain, Director, Siddha Group
“Mumbai’s increased property registration numbers and rising demand for spacious apartments are indicative of a strong, evolving housing market. The surge highlights the aspirational shift of today’s homebuyer, who is now more inclined toward investing in premium, well-located properties. We have always believed in offering value with design, and the current trend validates the need for thoughtfully designed homes that align with changing lifestyle aspirations.”
Gartner Forecasts GenAI Spending to Hit INR 644 Billion in 2025
STAMFORD, Conn., April 1, 2025 — Worldwide generative AI (GenAI) spending is expected to total $644 billion in 2025, an increase of 76.4% from 2024, according to a forecast by Gartner, Inc.
“Expectations for GenAI’s capabilities are declining due to high failure rates in initial proof-of-concept (POC) work and dissatisfaction with current GenAI results,” said John-David Lovelock, Distinguished VP Analyst at Gartner. “Despite this, foundational model providers are investing billions annually to enhance GenAI models’ size, performance, and reliability. This paradox will persist through 2025 and 2026.
“Ambitious internal projects from 2024 will face scrutiny in 2025, as CIOs opt for commercial off-the-shelf solutions for more predictable implementation and business value. Despite model improvements, CIOs will reduce POC and self-development efforts, focusing instead on GenAI features from existing software providers.” said Lovelock.
GenAI spending is poised for significant growth across all core markets and submarkets in 2025 (see Table 1). GenAI will have a transformative impact across all aspects of IT spending markets, suggesting a future where AI technologies become increasingly integral to business operations and consumer products.

| Services | 10,569 | 177.0 | 27,760 | 162.6 |
| Software | 19,164 | 255.1 | 37,157 | 93.9 |
| Devices | 199,595 | 845.5 | 398,323 | 99.5 |
| Servers | 135,636 | 154.7 | 180,620 | 33.1 |
| Overall GenAI | 364,964 | 336.7 | 643,860 | 76.4 |
AI Capable Consumer Devices to Drive GenAI Spending
GenAI spending in 2025 will be driven largely by the integration of AI capabilities into hardware, such as servers, smartphones and PCs, with 80% of GenAI spending going towards hardware.
“The market’s growth trajectory is heavily influenced by the increasing prevalence of AI-enabled devices, which are expected to comprise almost the entire consumer device market by 2028,” said Lovelock. “However, consumers are not chasing these features. As the manufacturers embed AI as a standard feature in consumer devices, consumers will be forced to purchase them.”
Gartner’s GenAI spending forecast methodology relies heavily on rigorous analysis of the sales by over a thousand vendors across the entire range of GenAI products and services. Gartner uses primary research techniques, complemented by secondary research sources, to build a comprehensive database of market size data on which to base its forecast.
The Gartner GenAI spending forecast delivers a unique perspective on GenAI spending across the hardware, software and IT services segments. These reports help Gartner clients understand market opportunities and challenges.

Fortis Bannerghatta Road Removes Lemon-Sized Tumor with Expert Surgery
Bengaluru,1st April 2025 – A 54-year-old man from Anantapur, underwent a successful and complex surgical procedure at Fortis Hospital, Bannerghatta Road, Bengaluru, to remove a lemon-sized tumor. He was diagnosed with Pott’s Puffy Tumor, a rare and aggressive condition that involves an infection of the frontal sinus. Under the expert care of Dr Susheen Dutt, Senior Consultant – ENT, Cochlear Implant and Skull Base Surgeon, Fortis Hospital, Bannerghatta Road, Bangalore, along with Dr Abhishek S, Consultant – Otorhinolaryngology, Fortis Hospital, Bannerghatta Road, Bangalore the patient underwent a complex surgical procedure and was discharged after a five-day hospital stay.
The patient, Sham (name changed), a resident of Anantapur, was experiencing a rapidly growing and extremely painful swelling on his forehead, which had expanded to the size of a lemon within just three and a half weeks. Initially, he noticed a gradual swelling between his eyebrows, which soon became intensely painful. Concerned about the progressive nature of the swelling, he sought medical attention in his hometown. After local consultations, he was referred to Fortis Hospital in Bengaluru for further evaluation and advanced treatment.
Upon arrival at Fortis Hospital, a thorough medical evaluation was conducted, including an MRI (Magnetic resonance imaging), to determine if the infection had spread to the brain. The results revealed that the swelling was pressing against the back wall of the frontal sinus, a sinus located in the forehead. While the infection had not yet reached the brain, it posed a significant risk due to the proximity of the sinus to the frontal lobe. Understanding the severity of the case, Dr. Susheen recommended a surgical approach to ensure precise treatment and effective resolution of the condition.
Giving details of the case, Dr Susheen Dutt, Senior Consultant – ENT, Cochlear Implant and Skull Base Surgeon, Fortis Hospital, Bannerghatta Road, Bangalore said, “We opted for a combined approach (open and endoscopic), making a precise incision above the forehead to gain better access and ensure complete removal of the infected tissue. We had to ensure that the infection did not breach the thin layer of tissue separating the sinus from the brain. We worked meticulously to clear the infection while safeguarding the brain.”
“In addition to removing the infection, the team performed a frontal sinus obliteration procedure to prevent any future infections. Fat was used to fill the sinus cavity, sealing it off completely. This procedure eliminates the need for further bone reconstruction, as the sinus will not reopen. Over time, the area will heal, and the patient will not require additional surgeries. This approach prevents recurrence and avoids the complications associated with bone reconstruction.”
Mr. Akshay Oleti, Business Head, Fortis Hospitals Bengaluru, said, “At Fortis Hospitals, we are committed to providing the highest standard of care through innovative treatments and personalized patient services. The successful outcome of this case highlights our dedication to addressing complex medical conditions with advanced technology and expert clinical intervention. We are proud to support our patients in their recovery journey and continue to raise the bar in healthcare excellence.”
