    Ex-CMO Devarshy Ganguly takes a bold leap with GLX Eminence launch

    MUMBAI: From stirring up campaigns at Diageo to building Magicbricks into an award-winning portal, Devarshy R. Ganguly has worn many marketing hats. Now, the veteran brand-builder is donning the entrepreneurial cap with the launch of his consulting venture, GLX Eminence, a platform designed to engineer clarity, growth and lasting impact.

    Armed with over two decades of experience across Dr. Oetker, Mars Wrigley, Del Monte, Beam Suntory and Diageo (UB Group), Ganguly has carved out a reputation for driving breakthrough innovations. Along the way, he’s been named among India’s Top 50 CMOs by The Financial Express, featured in Nielsen’s Top Launches, and earned accolades from DMA Asia and AdLift for his contributions to MarTech. His last corporate innings at Magicbricks saw him expand the platform into a full-stack real estate marketplace, supercharge content via MBTV on YouTube, monetise proprietary research, and roll out campaigns that culminated in CNBC’s Best Real Estate Portal of the Year (2024).

    GLX Eminence is built on four pillars: driving growth for startups, SMEs and enterprises; bridging industry and academia through experiential programmes; mentoring leaders, professionals and students; and inspiring audiences as a motivational speaker and storytelling expert. “GLX Eminence was born of a simple belief that growth must be purposeful, leadership empowering, and excellence sustainable,” said Ganguly, adding that the mission is to help brands and talent “find clarity, create significance, and engineer lasting impact.”

    With the venture, the award-winning marketer is not just turning a new page but writing an entirely new playbook, one that blends boardroom lessons with classroom wisdom, and storytelling with strategy.

  • Del Monte makes olive oil more affordable than ever before

    Del Monte makes olive oil more affordable than ever before

    NEW DELHI: Olive oil is considered one of the healthiest oil types and has therefore commanded a premium on price. But not anymore as Del Monte, a popular brand within the olive oil segment, has launched a special 1 litre pouch pack priced at Rs 250 only, thereby making this healthy oil affordable like never before.

    The move is surely expected to disrupt the Rs 40,000 crore edible oil market in the country, considering that price has been reported to be the single biggest barrier which has prevented families from shifting to olive oil. The pack has already hit the markets in Delhi-NCR, Bengaluru, Chennai, Mumbai, Hyderabad, Punjab and is available on leading e-commerce platforms as well.

    The new pack carries a special variety of olive oil called Olive Pomace Oil, which is imported directly from Europe and was only available in bottles at a premium, here in India until now. Olive Pomace Oil is known to have zero cholesterol with no trans-fats, and instead carries high good fats (MUFA/PUFA) and anti-oxidants. It is considered ideal for deep frying apart from everyday Indian cooking.

    “We have always given highest priority to quality and healthy options while bringing products to the market. This is the first ever affordable pack launch for Olive Pomace Oil in India. Home consumption during the lockdown has gone up tremendously and the new affordable pack will further drive the growth in this segment,” said FieldFresh Foods Pvt Ltd CEO Yogesh Bellani.

    This new affordable pack of olive oil from Del Monte has been rolled out after a thorough research which clearly highlighted that Indian consumers have become more health conscious than ever before and are keen on adopting a healthy cooking oil.
