Aircel is title sponsor of Garden of Love
MUMBAI: With Valentine‘s Day around the corner, Mogae Digital promoted Garden of Love (www.gardenoflove.in) has roped in Aircel as its title sponsor.
Additionally, for the second year in succession, MSN India will partner the Garden of Love. The website will also gift virtual Cadbury Temptations‘ chocolate.
“This may seem simple but an application such as this wherein anybody but anybody with even the simplest handset can create and enjoy the flower, is an experience very few digital properties offer today. Also the joy of sharing the flower with friends takes it much beyond a mere greeting card which is one-on-one,” says Mogae Digital creative head Gaurav Luthra.
At the Mogae Digital promoted Garden of Love, one can create a flower (virtual, by SMS or on the net) and continue to nourish it with water, sunshine and nutrients, lest it wilt for lack of love. Users have to send an SMS to 5676711 and it will create a flower with a confirmatory message to the beneficiary of the love message as well as to the originator.
MUMBAI: In India’s fast-moving payments race, Visa has just swiped in a new leader. The company has named Suresh Sethi as its India country head, marking a key leadership shift as it sharpens its focus on digital payments growth in the market. Sethi steps into the role following his recent exit from Protean eGov Technologies, where he served as chief executive officer. He succeeds Sandeep Ghosh, who has moved on after more than four years at Visa to pursue an external opportunity.
The appointment comes at a time when Visa is doubling down on its expansion strategy across India and the wider region, deepening partnerships and accelerating adoption in an increasingly competitive digital payments ecosystem.
Sethi brings with him a broad, cross-market perspective shaped by decades of experience across corporate banking, retail financial services, mobile money and large-scale government technology initiatives. He began his career at Citigroup, where he spent 14 years working across India, Africa, South America and the United States, focusing on transaction banking services within the corporate bank.
His appointment signals a blend of institutional experience and market familiarity qualities that could prove critical as Visa navigates a landscape where fintech innovation, regulatory evolution and consumer adoption are all accelerating at once.
As digital payments in India continue to scale rapidly, the leadership change underscores a simple reality, in a market where every tap, scan and swipe counts, who leads the charge can matter just as much as the technology itself.
