Kerala-based Turmin Labs has announced the launch of Dr. Zach’s Mostigo, an all-natural mosquito repellent lotion that is 100% natural and DEET-free. The product is completely natural and provides 8 hours of outdoor and indoor protection. You can buy Mostigo on Amazon.

This unique formula contains plant-based compounds of Turmeric, Coconut, Lemon, and Eucalyptus. The mosquito repellent has been invented by Dr. Zach, who has dedicated 30+ years of his life to researching plant-based compounds.

“Our product is clinically approved and gives you a 100% guarantee that it is safe for babies, kids, adults, and senior citizens. Mostigo is formulated based on IR-GR-OR Disruption Technology”. The company has a patent pending for this formulation, says Dr. Zach. Unlike other repellents that rely on fragrance and harmful chemicals such as DEET, Mostigo’s uniqueness is its ability to repel mosquitos using plant-based compounds that are 100% natural.

The market is full of mosquito repellents that have harmful chemicals and artificial fragrances. Mostigo, an all-natural mosquito repellent lotion is free from DEET, Parabens, Fillers, Phthalates, sulphates, petrochemicals, animal-derived ingredients, synthetic fragrance, or synthetic dyes, and other colorants. DEET is widely used in non-natural mosquitos’ repellents, and it can cause rashes, skin or eye irritation, and even seizures.

Mostigo has a pleasant smell, and it’s also soothing for the skin. Mostigo, an all-natural mosquito repellent lotion has been formulated in collaboration with a leading lab in the USA and certified in India for use on all skin types. It is not sticky, spreads evenly on the skin, and does not stain clothes. You can easily apply it on your body because this is the lotion, not a sticky spray.

Turmeric is traditionally used as a skin protectant; it has anti-fungal & anti-bacterial properties. The volatile oil of turmeric, especially Ar turmerone is known to be a powerful mosquito repellent.

Coconut is also an important part of the Mostigo formulation. Select compounds derived from coconut affect the communication channels in the mosquitoes’ nervous system, thereby decreasing their appetite and keeping them away from humans.

Mostigo, all-natural mosquito repellent lotion also contains Lemon and Eucalyptus Oil. The unique chemical composition of Turmeric, Coconut, and lemon eucalyptus oil gives out a scent that masks human body odours that attract mosquitoes, which makes humans invisible to them.

Dr. Sakariah leveraged four decades of experience working as a scientist at a premier Indian institution. His goal was to find a solution to an age-old problem – how to develop a potent, long-lasting natural mosquito repellent that can outlast harmful, chemical-based repellents in the market. By using the latest research on natural compounds and cutting-edge technology to make natural ingredients last longer on the skin to repel mosquitos, Mostigo finally arrived to revolutionize the natural mosquito market.

In India, close to 40 million get affected by mosquito-borne diseases every year. Mosquitoes cause various illnesses including malaria, dengue chikungunya, and brain fever. Mostigo, an all-natural mosquito repellent lotion is an effective and natural solution to keep you and your loved ones protected from the menace of mosquitoesYou can buy Mostigo on Amazon.

The rate of accidents in two-wheelers is higher than any other vehicle on Indian roads. Hence, one should buy a comprehensive bike insurance policy to get coverage on accidental damages and injuries. In that case, it is good news that GIBL is providing bike insurance up to an 80% discount for two-wheeler owners thinking of buying coverage for their bikes.

Kolkata: The most popular vehicles that you will see on the Indian roads are none other than the two-wheelers. Riding a two-wheeler is always an amazing experience when you breeze through the traffic without any hindrance. However, it cannot be denied that two-wheelers are also exposed to high risks of injuries and fatalities.

When buying a two-wheeler, one must check the mileage, design, and price among others. At the same time, it is equally important to check what facilities you will be receiving when buying an insurance policy. In such scenarios, it is great news that GIBL is providing personalized bike insurance that is offering up to an 80% discount to two-wheeler owners. So if you are wondering why you should get two-wheeler insurance, check the facts given below.

Importance of a Two-wheeler Insurance

The rate of accidents is much higher in two-wheelers than four-wheelers which itself explains the importance of a comprehensive bike insurance policy that provides security from accidental damages and injuries. Moreover, motor insurance is compulsory according to the Motor Vehicles Act 1988.

On the other hand, only third-party insurance is mandatory by law, and people buy the third-party policy to save on premiums. It needs to be understood that having insufficient coverage is similar to having no insurance at all. Hence, one should always try to buy a comprehensive insurance policy that offers protection to the owner as well as to the third-party at the same time.

Tips to Choose the Best Two-wheeler Insurance

It is advisable to purchase comprehensive two-wheeler insurance as it offers an all-inclusive cover. However, one should take a well-researched decision when buying bike insurance after evaluating the following factors:

  1. Determine your coverage requirement
  2. Know your bike’s cubic capacity
  3. Choose a reputed insurer
  4. Understand Insurance Declared Value (IDV)
  5. Compare bike insurance online
  6. Never forget to read online reviews

If a two-wheeler owner considers the above points when buying bike insurance or renewing a policy, they will surely find themselves benefiting in the end. At the same time, it would be wise to evaluate your requirements when renewing your policy to ensure that the coverage satisfies your needs perfectly.

Leveraging tech, AI, and community Rozana.in plans to expand the Indian online B2C market and inspire a new generation of people to become entrepreneurs and financially independent.

Rozana.in is a peer-to-peer e-commerce grocery portal launched in Delhi, Noida, Greater Noida, and Lucknow. It is an AI-based peer commerce model, set to bring much-needed supply chain solutions to the industry and expand the online market to tap the potential of India’s un-yielded online grocery space.

India’s rising social commerce market is the key to the expansion of the market opportunity for online groceries. Currently, India’s E-Com market is capped at 8% of India’s population. While over 50% of India’s population use the internet and present on social media, it is a huge market which remains untapped even today. Even countries like Brazil have 30% of their population using E-Commerce. The P2P model was adopted by the Rozana founders after carefully working and studying the Indian market for the last 6 years with their last two ventures.

With aggressive expansion plans of going into over 10 cities in the next six months including Bangalore, Mumbai, Chandigarh, Indore, Agra, and Meerut, Rozana.in looks at entering the different markets with innovative and custom strategies. With an inventory light model, it aggregates the B2B sellers and leverages the P2P model to drive high sales in the community.

Founded by first-generation entrepreneurs, this start-up has alumni of IIM Lucknow (Ms.AnkurDahiya – CEO), Harvard Law School (Mr.AdwaitVikram Singh – CSO), and St Stephens (Mr.Mukesh Christopher COO), and Prithvi Pal Singh (CPO).

Co-founder and IIM alumnus Ankur Dahiya says, “We are leveraging AI, and our experience in logistics to ensure fast growth through innovative means of customer acquisition and retention. For Rozana.in personal touch and custom strategy is helping grow quickly.”

Explaining their strategy to enter the market, CSO, Adwait Vikram Singh said, “India is not a monolith. A tier 2 city in Uttar Pradesh will have a very different strategy than Tier 2 in Karnataka. But across the cities, we have realized that convenience is key, which majorly needs a good product assortment as per the local needs. Once we understand the city’s needs, we make a custom strategy for entering the city. We do in-depth analysis and planning in launching these cities, and strategy depends on the local culture and eating habits. If we can understand that and plug the gap (even if it’s small), we will penetrate the city successfully.”

The Investment Deal 

Germany’s IEG Investment Bank is leading the Pre-Series A investment round with $1.5mn in Rozana.  A Peer to Peer Model is going to be crucial to expand the online market in India, thus making it a great partnership between Rozana.in and IEG Investment Bank.

Before founding Rozana.in, the founders had made a successful exit from Routier after being acquired by Ebix, a NASDAQ-listed company, in 2018. It is proven that supply chain inefficiencies can crush consumer experiences. Therefore, Rozana.in is delivering everyday supplies, with freshness and promptness.
