B. Beastbells Media Pvt Ltd
A 4-year-old media subsidiary engaged in event management, content creation, and brand promotions.
Successfully organised the Dasakaratna DNR Film Awards on 5 May 2024 at Shilpa Kala Vedika, Hyderabad ? a grand event attended by top Tollywood personalities and the Honble Minister of Cinematography, Telangana. The event received wide media coverage and industry appreciation.
Plans to enter the podcast segment, leveraging the growing popularity of audio content. The flagship project will be a podcast series on Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR), covering the present scenario, future trends, and promoting the Vocal for Local mission.
The podcast will be multilingual, AI-enabled for content creation and audience targeting, and designed to appeal to both corporate and public audiences.
Use of Rs.3 crore investment:
Podcast studio setup and equipment.
Content production in multiple languages with AI translation and editing tools.
Digital marketing and distribution across major platforms.
Business development to attract sponsorships, collaborations, and corporate tie-ups.
1. The Macro-Economic and Political Context
"Atmanirbhar Bharat" and "Vocal for Local": These arent just slogans; they are the core of Indias current economic policy. The government is actively pushing for self-reliance and supporting domestic industries. Our podcast, by focusing on how Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) funds can be channeled to bolster local communities, small businesses, and artisans, directly serves this national objective. We would be providing a platform to showcase success stories and best practices that exemplify this ethos. This gives our podcast a powerful and relevant narrative.
Trade Tariffs: The recent tariffs imposed by the USA on Indian exports are a significant economic headwind. This makes the "Atmanirbhar Bharat" and "Vocal for Local" campaigns even more critical. By promoting domestic consumption and a robust internal economy through strategic CSR, our podcast would be offering a tangible solution to a real-world problem. It would be a source of valuable information for companies looking to mitigate the effects of global trade disruptions by strengthening their local supply chains and markets.
2. The Gaps in CSR Implementation
We have astutely identified the weaknesses in the current CSR ecosystem, which provides a clear market for our podcast.
Lack of Awareness and Utilization: Many companies, especially those newly brought under the CSR mandate, struggle with where and how to spend their funds effectively. Our podcast can serve as a guide and a resource. By featuring interviews with CSR managers, government officials, and NGO leaders, we can demystify the process and provide actionable advice.
CSR Misconceptions: There is a persistent perception that CSR is a mere tick-box exercise or a potential source of fund misuse. Our proposal to use an AI tool to bring transparency is revolutionary. The podcast would be the ideal platform to introduce and demonstrate this tool, showcasing how technology can be used to ensure accountability and measure real impact. This would build significant trust and credibility for both the companies you feature and Beastbells Media itself.
3. Beastbells Medias Strategic Advantage
Reputation and Reach: Beastbells Media has already demonstrated its ability to organize a prestigious event like the Dasakaratna DNR film awards. This means we have a network and a reputation for bringing together influential people. We can leverage this to attract top-tier guests for our podcast, including corporate leaders, policymakers, and celebrated film personalities who are also involved in social causes.
Media Expertise: We are a media company. Podcasting is a natural extension of our business. Its a cost-effective way to create regular, high-quality content that builds an engaged audience over time. A monthly podcast is a manageable commitment that can grow into a powerful brand asset.
4. The Impact of Proposed AI Tool
The idea of a development and implementation of an AI tool to erase misconceptions about CSR fund misuse is a game-changer. This would not only serve as a feature for podcast but could potentially become a new revenue stream for Beastbells Media.
Transparency and Trust: The tool would provide a layer of accountability that is currently missing. It could track the flow of funds, measure the on-the-ground impact, and provide auditable reports. This would be a massive value-add for companies, helping them demonstrate their commitment to ethical practices.
Podcast as a Showcase: The podcast would be the perfect medium to show the AI tool in action. We could dedicate episodes to a specific CSR project, showing the initial investment, the tracking process via the AI tool, and the final, verified outcome. This would be a compelling and powerful way to build a loyal audience.
5. Strategic Justification for the Rights Issue
A. Strengthening Core E-commerce Operations
Expanding into Tamil Nadu, Maharashtra and other states will increase customer reach, reduce delivery times, and improve seller ratings on marketplaces.
B. Launching New Proprietary Platforms
ONVO (D2C) for home and kitchen products and relaunch of Goldensilver.in or similar portal for lifestyle products will give Nihar Info Global Ltd direct access to customers, independent of marketplaces.
C. Healthcare Sector Entry via Life108
Digital healthcare is among the fastest-growing segments in India; launching a dedicated e- pharmacy portal and private label healthcare supplements will create recurring revenue streams.
D. Media Sector Diversification via Beastbells
Podcasts are becoming a mainstream content format in India. The planned CSR-focused, multilingual, AI-powered podcast will tap into a niche market with strong sponsorship and branding potential.
E. Shareholder Value Creation
Offering shares at par ensures fairness and accessibility to all shareholders.
The proposed investments aim at scalable business models with both domestic and global growth potential.
6. Expected Outcomes
Geographic Expansion: Presence in three strategic states for e-commerce fulfilment.
Brand Development: Proprietary labels and platforms in both e-commerce and healthcare. Revenue Diversification: Entry into high-growth segments ? digital healthcare and podcasts. Profitability: Higher margins through private labels and owned digital assets.
Market Positioning: Recognition as a multi-sector growth company with strong technology integration.
