 Abstract

This analysis explores the performance and strategic role of large-cap, mid-cap, and small-cap mutual funds, alongside long-term equity and gold trends, to guide effective investment planning. Notable funds such as Nippon India Large Cap, Motilal Oswal Midcap, and Nippon India Small Cap exhibit strong risk-adjusted returns, as indicated by high Sharpe ratios and alpha values. Cost- efficiency, demonstrated by lower expense ratios in funds like ICICI Prudential Bluechip and HDFC Midcap Opportunities, further enhances investor gains. While large-cap funds provide stability, mid and small-cap funds offer higher growth potential, albeit with increased volatility-- necessitating alignment with individual risk profiles. Diversification, including a 10-15% allocation to gold, adds portfolio resilience due to gold's historical performance during economic crises. A disciplined strategy involving Systematic Investment Plans (SIPs), regular portfolio rebalancing, and goal-aligned investing supports sustainable wealth creation over the long term.

 Abstract

Since the 1940's ,the literary scene in Assam changed due to the cross-connections of multiple innovative ideas re-introducing the emerging concepts of modernism all over the world. Hiren Bhattacharyya, Nilamoni Phukan, Navakanta Barua, Homen Borgohain were the pioneers of Modern Assamese Poetry influenced by the poetic conventions of Baudelaire, T.S.Eliot, Ezra Pound and Rilke. In the modernist background. This paper examines the modernist vision embodied in the poetry of Hiren Bhattacharyya, one of the most influential voices in Assamese literature. Focusing on the period of post-colonial transformation in India, the study explores how Bhattacharyya's works challenge conventional poetic forms and language, reflecting the socio-political and cultural shifts of his time. Through an analysis of his use of free verse, symbolism, and avant-garde expression, this paper argues that Bhattacharyya's poetry marks a significant departure from the classical, traditional styles of Assamese verse. The study delves into the modernist themes that permeate his work, including existentialism, human struggle, societal disillusionment, and the break-down of established norms. Additionally, it examines how Bhattacharyya's unique voice and innovative use of language reflect the broader modernist impulse towards individual expression, fragmentation, and the exploration of identity in a rapidly changing world. The paper further investigates his influence on contemporary Assamese poetry and positions his contribution within the larger context of modernist literary movements both in India and globally. By focusing on specific poems, this research paper highlights the profound impact of Bhattacharyya's work on the evolution of Assamese poetry, offering insights into how modernism reshaped literary traditions in Assam.

 Abstract

The growing involvement of third-party vendors in clinical trials--ranging from labs and imaging providers to ePRO systems and decentralized technologies--has introduced both opportunities and complexities in clinical data management. This review investigates the role of third-party vendor reconciliation, highlighting its impact on data quality, trial timelines, and regulatory compliance. Through analysis of empirical results, workflow models, and best practices, the paper underscores the limitations of manual reconciliation processes and the benefits of adopting AI-driven, standards-based, and automated approaches. It also outlines future directions, including interoperability enhancements, blockchain applications, and global regulatory harmonization. Ultimately, this review presents vendor reconciliation as a strategic component of clinical trial execution that deserves investment, innovation, and institutional prioritization.

 Abstract

Politics is the art of controlling power and managing public affairs, often framing an enemy to unify a group. Democracy has shifted this focus toward ethical governance, recognizing citizens' equality, though it complicates the political process. Politicians frequently apply 'othering' to create distinctions between groups, thus reinforcing social hierarchies and power imbalances. Additionally, clientelism persists in many political systems, facilitating relationships with emerging groups while undermining democratic values. This study explores the interplay of 'othering' and 'clientelism' in state-society relations through various geopolitical case studies.

 Abstract

Due to their moderate labor concentration, micro, small, and medium-sized businesses offer greater options for overhauls per unit of capital. Effective labor force management is necessary in order to offer employment opportunities. Numerous benefits for both the company and human resources would be ensured by the skilled management of human resources under its purview, including steadily rising productivity, preventing accidents, developing sound earnings of guiding principles in effective training of growing morale and profession satisfaction, preventing labor turnover and absenteeism, managing labor indiscipline and effective accusation management, etc. The study aims to investigate the management and effective use of human resources in Micro, Small, and Medium-Sized Enterprises (MSMEs) in India during the country's economic reforms. These reforms allowed for significant changes in the economy's structure, where MSMEs play a significant role. The research will demonstrate human resource management and the dynamics of its development as a crucial strategy in business development by presenting a viewpoint that many economists hold regarding a sense of competitiveness and globalization tendencies. Micro, small, and medium-sized businesses now confront difficulties in their operations, such as the human resources management process, as a result of one such extensive reform. What a step. Nonetheless, it has established a solid foundation for the development of procedures for Macedonia's market economy, which is required for the effective management and use of human resources.

 Abstract

The rapid advancement of Artificial Intelligence (AI) has transformed the e-commerce sector by enhancing operational efficiency, improving consumer engagement, and enabling data-driven decision-making. In this context, the present study titled *"A Study on Artificial Intelligence Applications in E-Commerce in Karnataka"* examines the role and impact of AI adoption on various aspects of e-commerce performance, with a special focus on consumer perceptions and city-wise differences. The major objective of the study is to analyze how AI applications influence operational efficiency, consumer experience, and sustainability practices in the state's e-commerce sector. The research employed a descriptive methodology, collecting primary data from 250 respondents across five cities in Karnataka (Mysore, Bangalore, Mangalore, Hassan, and Mandya) using a structured questionnaire on a five-point Likert scale. Descriptive statistics, regression analysis, and ANOVA were applied to test the hypotheses. The findings revealed that AI adoption significantly enhances efficiency (? = 0.42, p < 0.000), consumer experience (? = 0.48, p < 0.000), and sustainability (? = 0.21, p = 0.032). Further, ANOVA results indicated notable city-wise differences in adoption and satisfaction, with urban centers reporting higher acceptance and trust. The study concludes that while AI-driven personalization and recommendations strengthen consumer satisfaction, concerns regarding data security remain critical. The research holds importance as it provides actionable insights for businesses and policymakers while highlighting the scope for future research on generative AI and emerging e-commerce models.
