MRSI puts the power of ‘and’ at centre of 33rd annual seminar
MUMBAI: The Market Research Society of India (MRSI) is set to bring fresh energy to Gurugram this month, with its 33rd annual market research seminar promising a heady mix of data, ideas and debate under the banner “The Power of And”.
Dr Saurabh Garg, secretary at the ministry of statistics and programme implementation, will deliver the opening keynote on “Driving impact through data insights: harnessing public-private synergies for a Viksit Bharat at 2047”. His address will anchor two days of panels, papers and provocations at The Leela Ambience on 11–12 September.
The line-up features Karthik Nagarajan of Hogarth, Aradhana Lal of Lemon Tree Hotels and Aditya Kasyap of Unilever, alongside sessions on navigating “many Indias” and a panel on the “joys and dilemmas of insight in the age of technology” with senior voices from HUL, Nestlé, Airtel, Kantar, Smytten and more.
This year drew over 100 research paper submissions, with 22 shortlisted across four themes: bending and breaking methodologies, innovating at the edges, technology as an intersection, and the human mosaic of future leaders.
“The seminar has long been the cornerstone of India’s research and insights industry,” said Rituparna Dasgupta, chairperson of the 33rd edition and EVP at Zee entertainment. “This year’s theme captures how our world is being shaped.”
With Smytten Pulse AI as lead partner and heavyweights such as Kantar, Nestlé, ITC and Hindustan Unilever backing sessions, MRSI is positioning its flagship gathering as more than a talking shop.

Hyundai Motor India rolls out nationwide AC check-up camp from April 10
Limited-period service drive offers discounts, free checks to beat summer heat
GURUGRAM: Hyundai Motor India Limited has announced a nationwide AC check-up camp, rolling out from April 10 to April 18, as temperatures climb and car cabins begin to feel the heat.
The initiative is designed to keep vehicles cool and customers comfortable, offering a mix of free inspections, discounted services and value-added benefits across Hyundai’s extensive service network in India.
As part of the limited-period campaign, customers can avail a complimentary 30-point vehicle check-up along with a free dry wash. The company is also offering a 15 per cent discount on AC servicing, including gas refills, and similar savings on wheel alignment and balancing. Key AC components such as compressors, condensers and cooling coils will be available at a 10 per cent discount, while value-added services like AC disinfectant treatments and plastic restoration also come with reduced pricing.
The camp will be hosted across authorised Hyundai workshops nationwide, allowing customers easy access to trained technicians, genuine parts and diagnostic support without the usual hassle.
Speaking on the initiative, Hyundai Motor India Limited national service head Nilesh Shah said, “At HMIL, customer satisfaction and convenience remain at the core of our service philosophy. With the onset of summer, we are pleased to introduce our nationwide AC check-up camp to ensure that our customers enjoy a comfortable and hassle-free driving experience. This initiative reflects our commitment to delivering proactive care and enhancing vehicle performance through our strong service network across India.”
With mercury levels on the rise, Hyundai’s timely service push aims to ensure drivers stay cool behind the wheel while also nudging them towards preventive maintenance, a small check today that could save a larger repair tomorrow.
