He Spent 12 Years in Finance and Tech. Then He Built What the Industry Wouldn’t.

He Spent 12 Years in Finance and Tech. Then He Built What the Industry Wouldn’t.

The Stock Filter — a one-person intelligence platform covering 5,765 Indian companies, 15,700+ earnings calls, and nearly half a million signals — is live, free, and unlike anything Indian retail investors have had access to before.

Every year, lakhs of Indians open their first demat account. They download a trading app, buy a stock someone mentioned in a YouTube video, and wait. Some get lucky. Most learn an expensive lesson. The tragedy is not that they lost money — it is that nobody gave them the tools to know better.

The brokerage gave them a button to buy. The screener gave them a table of numbers. The Telegram channel gave them a tip. But nobody gave them what a professional fund manager takes for granted — structured intelligence. The ability to look at a company and understand not just what the numbers say, but what they mean. Where they come from. And whether they can be trusted.

Vicky Roy spent 12 years watching this gap widen — working across finance, technology, and data in roles that forced him to sit at the intersection of how markets generate information and how technology can make sense of it. The conclusion he arrived at sounds simple but carries weight: Indian retail investors are not information-starved. They are intelligence-starved. The raw data exists everywhere. What does not exist is a system that connects the dots, shows the evidence, and trusts the investor to think.

So he built one. Alone.

The Stock Filter (thestockfilter.com) is now live — covering 5,765 publicly listed Indian companies. The platform has processed over 15,700 earnings calls, tracks more than 491,000 signals drawn from nearly 248,000 source documents and 280,000+ corporate announcements. Every company page is a living dossier — financial statements, valuation history, shareholding trends, mutual fund activity, management commentary, and AI-generated intelligence from earnings calls.

The tagline says it plainly: Intelligence with receipts.

Every company receives a TSF Score — a composite rating visualised as a five-dimension radar showing Business quality, Captain (management), Opportunity, Environment, and Secular positioning, each scored out of 100. Below that sits the X-Ray Checklist, an auto-generated set of pros and cons that gives investors an instant read on what is working and what warrants caution. And for those who want to dig deeper, there is Ask AI — a conversational assistant on every company page that answers questions in context, with streaming responses drawing on the platform’s entire intelligence base for that company.

Perhaps the most distinctive module is Shenanigan Detection — an automated accounting red-flag scanner that grades companies as Clean, Medium, or High severity. The system also runs a Reverse DCF calculator on every company page, answering the question every value investor asks: what growth rate is the market already pricing in?

“I did not want to build another screener,” says Vicky Roy, founder of The Stock Filter. “Screeners give you numbers. Tip sheets give you conclusions. I wanted to build something in between — a system that does the analytical heavy-lifting but never hides its reasoning. The investor should always be able to ask ‘why?’ and get an answer with a source attached.”

The platform’s architecture reflects that philosophy at every level. India’s equity universe is mapped into 14 sectors and 40 sub-sectors through The Canopy — a proprietary taxonomy built from how companies actually generate revenue, not the legacy index classifications that lump disparate businesses together. Forty thematic Secular Currents — including Premiumisation and Chemical China+1 — cut across sectors to surface connections that traditional analysis misses. A company building EV charging stations and a company manufacturing copper wiring may sit in different sub-sectors, but they ride the same structural wave.

The Lens offers a daily-updated ranking of the most noteworthy movements across the universe. The Filing Room makes 280,000+ corporate announcements searchable. And the Markets Dashboard — with modules named The Pulse, The Rally, The Slide, The Tide, The Shadow, and The Blotter — gives investors a real-time read on breadth, flows, and institutional activity.

For investors managing actual portfolios, the platform runs Portfolio Health Diagnostics — assigning a health grade, analysing correlation and sector concentration, and flagging holdings where shenanigan alerts have been triggered.

And here is what may be most striking: all of it is currently free.

The Stock Filter is open to every registered user — full access to company intelligence, earnings call analysis, transcripts, and the complete analytical suite. No trial period. No paywall on core insights. Premium tiers are on the roadmap, but the present stance is deliberate: prove the value first, earn the right to charge later.

“In an industry that routinely charges for mediocre data behind aggressive paywalls, I wanted to do the opposite,” says Roy. “Let people use it. Let them verify every claim I make. If the intelligence is real, the business model will follow.”

What makes this story uncommon in India’s startup landscape is not just the ambition — it is the execution without the scaffolding. No engineering team. No venture capital. No growth hacks. One person who decided that 5,765 companies deserved to be understood, not just listed — and then built the system to do it.

The platform is live. The data is current. The coverage is not a roadmap slide — it is a fact anyone can verify in sixty seconds by visiting any company page on thestockfilter.com.

Indian retail investors have waited a long time for a platform that respects their intelligence as much as it respects their capital. That platform is here.

TriFit Launches the Transformation Kit: The AI Fitness Band Built for Habit Formation in a Chaotic World

TriFit Launches the Transformation Kit: The AI Fitness Band Built for Habit Formation in a Chaotic World

Bengaluru, India – 6/5/2026 – TriFit today announced the TriFit Transformation Kit, an AI-powered habit fitness system built around the TriKarma Band, tap-to-track Habit Tiles, and Triffy Coach. Designed for people navigating work stress, bad sleep, travel, social commitments, inconsistent routines, and modern burnout, TriFit is positioning itself as a new category in wearable wellness: not just a fitness band, not just a smartwatch, and not just an AI coach, but a behaviour-change operating system for real life.

The company is entering the market with a direct belief: the only practical way to build habits in a chaotic world is to work around obstacles, not pretend they are not there. Most fitness plans fail because they assume life is stable. TriFit is built for the opposite reality. It adapts to the user’s body, behaviour, stress, environment, and available energy, then recommends the next best step that can actually be completed today.

“Most people do not fail because they lack motivation. They fail because their plan collapses the moment life becomes inconvenient,” said Shiv Pardal, CEO of TriFit. “TriFit is built on a sharper truth: the only realistic way to build habits in a chaotic world is to adapt around obstacles. Triffy reads your state, your stress, your behaviour, and your context, then gives you the next step you can actually complete.”

The TriFit Transformation Kit combines three layers. The TriKarma Band tracks key wellness and performance signals, including heart rate, HRV, sleep, stress, movement, recovery, and daily effort. Habit Tiles are physical tap-based triggers placed where routines happen: the desk, kitchen, bedroom, gym bag, water bottle, or work zone. Triffy Coach is the AI coach that translates signals into action.

Unlike conventional fitness wearables that mainly show dashboards, TriFit is designed to close the gap between data and behaviour. The platform uses mathematical models to estimate readiness, friction, stress burden, consistency, likelihood of completion, and expected behavioural payoff. Instead of asking, “What is the ideal plan?” TriFit asks, “What is the next action this person is most likely to complete today that still moves them forward?”

That next step may be a full workout on a high-recovery day. It may be a 12-minute walk after a stressful meeting. It may be breathwork before sleep, a hydration cue during a hot afternoon, a lighter session after poor recovery, or a minimum viable habit when the day has already gone sideways. TriFit is built to protect momentum without demanding perfection.

“Behaviour change is not about shouting louder at the user,” said Nimrod Mon Brokman of Behavioural Foresight. “The future of performance is using technology to reduce wasted mental effort. When a system understands stress, recovery, breath, environment, and behaviour, it can help people do the right action at the right moment. That is where ancient self-regulation and modern predictive technology can meet.”

TriFit’s approach also makes the physical environment part of the product. Habit Tiles turn key locations into behaviour triggers. A desk tile can launch a 60-second reset. A kitchen tile can start hydration or meal awareness. A gym bag tile can open a trimmed workout based on current recovery. A bedroom tile can trigger a wind-down routine. Each tap becomes a behavioural signal, helping Triffy learn what users actually do, not just what they intended to do.

“Designing TriFit was not about making another gadget,” said Nigel Whan, COO of TriFit. “The goal was to make the invisible parts of habit-building visible: the desk where stress builds, the kitchen where choices happen, the bedroom where recovery starts, and the gym bag that gets ignored. Habit Tiles make the environment part of the product. That is the difference between a tracker and a transformation system.”

The system is designed around Mind, Body, and Soul wellness. It supports physical activity, recovery, hydration, nutrition awareness, stress management, and behavioural consistency in one loop. TriFit’s goal is not to punish missed days or force rigid streaks. Its goal is to keep users inside the habit loop by adapting the plan whenever life changes.

For performance-minded users, Triffy Coach can help balance strain and recovery. For beginners, it reduces intimidation by shrinking actions into achievable steps. For busy professionals, it manages stress and energy without adding another complicated routine. For people who have started and stopped countless times, it turns transformation into a sequence of small, recoverable decisions.

“Dashboards do not build habits. Decisions do,” added Pardal. “TriFit exists to make the next decision easier. Not perfect. Easier. That is how transformation survives traffic, deadlines, weddings, bad sleep, stress, and real Indian life.”

TriFit Intelligence is designed as a wellness guidance system and does not replace medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment. The company encourages users to consult qualified professionals before making major health decisions.

TriFit’s message behind the launch is simple: life will remain chaotic, but habits do not have to collapse inside it.

TriFit – Your Life. Your Rules. Triffy finds the next best step.

About TriFit

TriFit is an AI wellness company building a hardware-plus-software ecosystem for habit formation, performance, stress management, and adaptive behaviour change. Its system combines the TriKarma Band, Habit Tiles, AI coaching, and mathematical models to help users turn daily actions into sustainable progress.

Why SPF Alone Isn’t Enough in Indian Summers

Why SPF Alone Isn’t Enough in Indian Summers

New Delhi [India], May 5: Summers are here and the Indian summers are especially known for the heat, strong UV rays and the effects they have on skin health. Most often, we can’t see what the effect on the skin is. The continuous exposure to sunlight often causes tanning of skin, uneven skin tone, dullness, and sunburns. This is due to the increased production of free radicals in the body, resulting in oxidative stress. This internal damage often shows up gradually as a tired appearance.

Applying sunscreen is one important step in skin care during summers as it protects the outer layer of the skin from UV rays. This acts as a surface barrier. However, this doesn’t completely prevent the internal impact of continuous sun exposure. This is where we need something beyond the SPF. As we explore different options, one of them includes a Glutathione tablet for glowing skin that helps manage the deeper effects of sun exposure.

Glutathione: The Core Antioxidant

Glutathione is one of the best antioxidants for the body that helps in protecting the cells from damage caused by environmental stressors such as UV radiation and pollution. In summers, when the skin is exposed to the harsh sun rays relatively more than other times of the year, the natural antioxidants may not be sufficient.

This is where a Glutathione supplement helps as it naturalizes free radicals and reduces oxidative stress which is responsible for pigmentation, uneven tone, and loss of clarity. Glutathione also supports the body’s natural detoxification processes, which maintains the overall skin health. When consumed regularly, it improves the skin health gradually with long lasting effects instead of being temporary.

Why Vitamin C Makes It More Effective

Vitamin C is a powerful antioxidant that works well when combined with glutathione and improves its effectiveness. One important way glutathione is regenerated after it has been used is by neutralising free radicals. This enables glutathione to function efficiently within the body.

Regular use of Vitamin C promotes brighter-looking skin and collagen production, which ensures the firmness and skin texture is retained. When combined, both glutathione and vitamin C provide a comprehensive approach to enhancing skin health in the summer season, ensuring both protection and skin repair.

The Synergy: Beyond Surface-Level Care

Both glutathione and Vitamin C together not only make the skin bright and radiant from outside, but also improve skin health internally., The outcome is even skin tone and reduced tanning of the skin over a period of time. This is different from other temporary solutions as it works at cellular level, making the skin resilient to environmental stressors. With the incorporation of Glutathione tablets for glowing skin in regular skin care routine, one can see long-term results rather than quick fixes.

Why This Matters More in Indian Summers

Skincare in summers gets slightly more complex. While continuous exposure to UV rays is a concern, one can also experience the effects of rising pollution levels that increase oxidative stress. This, along with sweat and humidity reduces the effects of topical products, making it harder for the applied products to be retained on the skin for a long period of time.

All these factors make it difficult for external products to work alone and require an additional internal support system to boost skin health from within to cope with ongoing stress. Consistent use of Glutathione supplement ensures the body manages the effects better while maintaining the skin pH balance even in demanding conditions.

Supporting Your Skin Through the Season

With continuous evolution of skincare regime, there is a need for solutions that can be consistently used, and are easy to adapt as part of daily life. Supplements like Glutone 1000 are designed to complement topical care with provision of antioxidant support from within. It is the use of Setria® Glutathione in these tablets that’s produced through a patented bio-fermentation process by Kyowa Hakko Bio Co., Ltd.. This provides 99.5% ultra-pure glutathione for better absorption making it easy for the body to utilise it.

By helping manage oxidative stress caused by regular sun exposure, it fits naturally into a summer skincare routine. When combined with habits such as using sunscreen, staying hydrated, and maintaining a balanced diet, it supports a more even and healthy-looking complexion over time.

Making It Part of Your Daily Routine

An all effective skincare routine during hot summer days can be simple with inclusion of certain simple steps. While external application of SPF is helpful, it isn’t enough. One must stay hydrated, and add essential supplements to retain the skin health, and the pH balance. While adding certain habits as a part of skincare regime is good, it is also essential to stay consistent. With small actions followed regularly, one can see better results than just going for some quick fixes. This combination of external protection and internal care encourages the skin to respond better to environmental stress and be resilient to the harsh UV rays and other stressors in summer months.

Indira Gandhi Eye Hospital Achieves Milestone with First iStent Inject W Procedure

Indira Gandhi Eye Hospital Achieves Milestone with First iStent Inject W Procedure

Uttar Pradesh – Indira Gandhi Eye Hospital proudly announces a significant advancement in glaucoma care with the successful implantation of the first iStent Inject W at the institution, performed by renowned Glaucoma surgeon Dr. Shweta Tripathi. This landmark procedure also marks the second implantation of iStent Inject W in the state of Uttar Pradesh, reinforcing the hospital’s commitment to adopting cutting-edge, minimally invasive glaucoma treatments.

Glaucoma, often referred to as the “silent thief of sight,” is a progressive optic neuropathy that can lead to irreversible vision loss if not managed effectively. Traditional management has relied heavily on long-term topical medications, which can be associated with poor compliance and ocular surface disease. The introduction of iStent Inject W, a minimally invasive glaucoma surgery (MIGS) device, represents a paradigm shift in treatment by enhancing physiological outflow and reducing intraocular pressure (IOP) with a strong safety profile.

Dr. Shweta Tripathi, who led the procedure, stated:
“This is an important step forward for glaucoma patients in our region. With iStent Inject W, we can offer a safer, effective, and less invasive option that reduces dependence on medications and improves quality of life.”

The iStent Inject W device is implanted into the trabecular meshwork to restore the eye’s natural drainage system. The procedure is typically combined with cataract surgery and involves minimal tissue disruption, allowing for faster recovery and fewer complications compared to traditional filtering surgeries.

The patient who underwent the procedure at Indira Gandhi Eye Hospital is recovering well, with stable intraocular pressure and no immediate complications reported. This success highlights the hospital’s growing expertise in advanced glaucoma management and its dedication to bringing global innovations to local patients.

Hospital authorities emphasized that this achievement reflects their ongoing mission to deliver world-class eye care in Uttar Pradesh. By introducing MIGS technologies like iStent Inject W, the institution aims to reduce the burden of glaucoma-related blindness and improve long-term outcomes for patients.

About Indira Gandhi Eye Hospital

Indira Gandhi Eye Hospital is a leading center for comprehensive ophthalmic care, offering advanced diagnostic and surgical services across subspecialties including glaucoma, cataract, retina, and cornea. The hospital continues to set benchmarks in patient care, innovation, and surgical excellence.

The Lucknow centre is led by Medical Director Dr Anjum Mazhari.

Shalimar Corp: Setting Benchmarks in Modern Urban Living

She Started Playing Squash at 32. The World Said No. She’s India #2 Now

She Started Playing Squash at 32. The World Said No. She’s India #2 Now

Palak Maheshwari picked up a squash racket for the first time at 32. Three years later, she holds the national No. 2 ranking in the W035 category and is preparing for the World Squash Masters. This is not a late-bloomer story. It is something more deliberate than that.

New Delhi [India], April 30: There is a particular kind of confidence that does not announce itself. It shows up in decisions, the kind that look questionable from the outside and obvious only in hindsight. When Palak Maheshwari walked onto a squash court for the first time at the age of 32, most people around her would have had questions. She did not seem to have any.

Today, three years after that first session, she is ranked No. 2 in India in the W035 squash category — runner-up at the Squash Masters Nationals (a 7-star national event) and the Goa Squash Masters (5-star), and now confirmed to represent India at the World Squash Masters. She had no prior sporting background. No junior career, no coaching history, no institutional pathway. Just a decision, and the discipline to back it.

“No One Told Me I Could. So I Didn’t Wait for Permission.”

Palak does not speak like someone who has recently achieved something remarkable. She speaks like someone who expected it. Not in an arrogant way — in the way that people who have thought carefully about what they are doing tend to sound. Certain. Unhurried.

She had come to squash from a life already full. A corporate finance career with MetLife and Ernst & Young. A serious interest in food photography that eventually earned her a place in Nikon’s global collection — the only Indian food photographer to be featured. The founding, in 2021, of a Delhi-based creative agency that today works with consumer brands across India.

“Squash wasn’t something I stumbled into. I’d been thinking about sport for a while. I just needed to find the one that matched how I think. Squash is fast, it’s strategic, and it punishes you immediately if your mind wanders. That felt right.”

“Squash is fast, it’s strategic, and it punishes you immediately if your mind wanders. That felt right.”

Within 18 months of starting, she had broken into the top 50 women squash players in India. By the end of year three, she stood on the national podium. The progression, by any measure, is extraordinary. The sport’s governing structure is unforgiving, rankings are earned through competitive performance, not accumulated over time. She earned hers the same way everyone else does, except in a third of the time most people expect it to take.

But the progression was not clean. The early months on court were humbling in a way she had not anticipated. A beginner’s footwork, a beginner’s reading of the ball, competing in a sport where the margins are physical as much as mental. There were matches she lost decisively, sessions that did not come together, plateaus that sat longer than expected. The sport does not accommodate shortcuts — not for anyone, and certainly not for someone starting at 32 in a field where opponents had been playing for a decade longer.

What she did not do was reframe the difficulty as a sign to stop. Setbacks on court were processed the way she had learned to process them elsewhere — as information, not as verdicts. She adjusted her training, tightened her preparation, and kept returning. The ranking did not arrive despite the struggle. In a meaningful sense, it arrived because of it.

Training Before Dawn. Running a Business by Day.

What makes the ranking harder to dismiss is the context in which it was built. Palak trains in the early hours of the morning, before most of Delhi is awake. The rest of the day belongs to her agency, her clients, and the administrative reality of running a business. There is no choosing one over the other. Both exist at the same time, sustained by the same standards.

She does not frame this as sacrifice. She frames it as structure. “People ask me how I manage both. But I think the real question is why we assume you have to choose. The discipline you build in one area doesn’t stay there. It moves. It shows up everywhere, in how you prepare for a match, in how you walk into a client meeting, in how you handle a setback. It’s the same thing.”

“The discipline you build in one area doesn’t stay there. It moves. It shows up everywhere.”

What India No. 2 Actually Means

The W035 category at the national level is not a consolation bracket. It brings together some of the most competitive squash players in the country, women who in many cases have been playing since their twenties, who have years of match experience and physical conditioning behind them. The fact that Palak reached No. 2 in this field, starting from zero at 32, is not a footnote to her story. It is the story.

The World Squash Masters will be her next stage. It is the first time she will compete internationally under the Indian flag, representing a journey that, by conventional timelines, should not have been possible. The fact that it is possible, that she is here, ranked, competing, and advancing, is the part worth paying attention to.

Beyond the Court

Before squash became the axis of her public story, Palak had quietly built a portfolio of achievements that most people would consider a full career by themselves. Her food photography earned her recognition at Nikon’s international level, a distinction no other Indian photographer in her category has received. Her creative agency, Global Platter, has worked with brands including PizzaExpress, ITC, and Bikanervala, building visual content for a generation of D2C companies that take aesthetics seriously.

What becomes clear across her journey is that none of it — the photography, the agency, the squash ranking, is about accumulation. It is about the same thing, expressed in different forms: the belief that the standard you hold yourself to is the only timeline that actually matters. She started at 32 because that is when she started. And that, it turns out, was early enough.

Palak Maheshwari is India’s No. 2 ranked squash player (W035 category) and founder of Global Platter, a Delhi-based creative agency.
