MUMBAI: Boat has turned up the volume with its latest tws earbuds, Nirvana X, engineered to redefine immersive audio. Packed with Hi-res ldac technology, dual drivers, AI-powered quad mics, and ultra-low latency gaming mode, these earbuds promise a premium experience without breaking the bank.
Boat has teamed up with Knowles Corporation, a leading name in high-performance audio components, to equip Nirvana X with Hifi Balanced Armature (BA) drivers. This ensures deep bass, crisp highs, and an all-encompassing soundscape that takes listening to the next level.
Nirvana X boasts dual dynamic 10mm drivers alongside Knowles BA drivers, offering studio-quality audio whether you’re streaming music, tuning into podcasts, or watching your favourite films.

Nirvana X ensures effortless connectivity and convenience with its smart features. Multi-point connectivity allows users to switch seamlessly between two devices, making it easy to take a call on a smartphone while staying connected to a laptop. In-ear detection automatically pauses music when an earbud is removed and resumes playback when inserted, ensuring a smooth listening experience. Meanwhile, quad mics with AI Enx technology effectively filter out background noise, delivering crystal-clear call quality even in the busiest environments.
With up to 40 hours of playtime, Nirvana X is designed for all-day entertainment, work marathons, and endless gaming sessions. Google fast pair ensures an instant connection, so you’re never left waiting. For gaming enthusiasts, beast mode offers ultra-low 60ms latency, syncing visuals and sound for a competitive edge.
With the Boat hearables app, users can customise Eq settings, remap touch controls, and enable Ota updates, keeping their earbuds always ahead of the curve.
At Rs 2,799, Nirvana X delivers premium audio at an unbeatable price. Available in four striking colours—galactic red, smokey amethyst, mist blue, and cosmic onyx, the earbuds can be purchased via Boat’s official website, Flipkart, Amazon, Myntra, and offline stores.

Manindra Mohan joins CoinDCX as SVP & head – data & analytics
Former Amazon and Unacademy analytics leader to scale crypto insights
MUMBAI: India’s crypto exchange CoinDCX has appointed Manindra Mohan as SVP and head of data and analytics, bringing on board a seasoned data strategist at a time when the country’s digital asset market is entering a decisive phase.
In his new role, he will steer enterprise-wide data science, analytics and business intelligence initiatives. His mandate spans product, growth, risk and customer experience, with a clear brief to embed data-led decision-making into the company’s core as it scales across India and beyond.
Announcing the move, Mohan said he was “thrilled” to join CoinDCX, calling the Indian crypto market pivotal and ripe with opportunity. He thanked co-founders Sumit Gupta and Neeraj Khandelwal, along with Mridul Gupta, for the opportunity to help shape what he described as the future of finance.
He noted that architecting data solutions for a 24 hour global asset class presents a formidable challenge. Yet, he added, the chance to redefine financial access and drive crypto adoption “across every pin code in India” makes the task compelling.
Mohan arrives with nearly two decades of experience across technology, media and digital platforms. Before CoinDCX, he served as head of data science, analytics and BI at Carousell Group. Prior to that, he was SVP and head of analytics at Unacademy, where he built and scaled the analytics and insights function supporting product, sales, marketing and finance teams.
His earlier stints include heading analytics for Amazon prime video in India, where he oversaw data across product, acquisition, engagement and content, as well as serving as senior manager data sciences and advanced analytics at VMware and senior manager marketing and digital analytics at Dell Technologies. He began his career as senior business analyst at Cognizant, working on large scale crm and analytics implementations for global clients.
Colleagues describe Mohan as a builder of teams as much as models. From managing global analytics rollouts to leading large cross functional units, he has consistently combined statistical rigour with commercial instinct.
At CoinDCX, that blend could prove timely. As crypto exchanges navigate regulation, volatility and rising user expectations, data is no longer a back office function. It is the compass. With Mohan at the helm of analytics, CoinDCX is betting that sharper insights will translate into deeper trust and broader adoption in a market that never sleeps.
