    Heyday Review

    The Idea Behind Heyday

    In a fast-paced world, creative tools are the most beneficial for highly organized people. The corporate world demands individuals be on board with everything sorted without addressing the differences in the simple ways in which people function. As per the study done by McKinsey, employees spend more than 19% of their working hours trying to track down the information required to complete the tasks. It is such a waste of time as far as overall productivity measured in real-time is concerned. It makes things all the way harder for people who are not well organized, for those who have a tough time completing even simple tasks, for those who procrastinate, and for those who generally tend to have low energy and are under-organized.

    Facing all these difficulties by himself, the CEO of Heyday Samiur Rahman wanted to find a solution to this deadlock to make things easier for people like him, who are less organized and run low on energy.

    He says that “Heyday isn’t built for knowledge management tool super users. It’s built for people, like me, with limited energy and capacity to stay organized. It’s easy to set up, requires little manual input, and enhances existing workflows.”

    Heyday was created with the realization that human brains are not built to handle the plethora of information that fills the internet today. There was a need to develop software that would float along with the users so as to function smoothly across the information provided to learn new things without having to have a behavioral change.

Realizing that more than 80% of employees globally are not productivity junkies, Heyday became a perfect fit within knowledge management tools that worked for people who were super organized or were ready to expend energy to become what the tools required them to be. They were soon able to change the ways in which knowledge was managed on the Internet.

The nuances of its working run along the unconventional and usually unorganized schedules of people, especially the ones having a hard time with ADHD.

    The CEO, Samiur, himself has been diagnosed with ADHD and says that “I have ADHD so I’ve acutely felt this need for most of my career. My expertise in Machine Learning draws me towards solutions that are automatic and free people up from repetitive, uncreative tasks.”

    Funding Story of Heyday

    Heyday has received tremendous funding since its inception. The CEO, Samiur, claims that the key to this success is confidence. Once there is a compelling story, then you are half done, is what the CEO says. He also believes in pitching in the right way as a subject expert, invoking the interest of the investor. His zeal and unwavering commitment to building a solution that addresses the issues of the not-so-perfect people are keeping him going. While he was pitching the story for Heyday, he introduced the memory assistant as a way to make knowledge function smarter. He assures that the AI assistant will empower the best of your thinking by working as an assistant in the background.

    On June 28, 2022, Heyday announced that they received $6.5 million in seed funding. It was led by Spark Capital with participation from Abstract Ventures, Packy McCormick’s Not Boring Syndicate, Firsthand Ventures, Correlation Ventures, Ride Ventures, Spacecadet Ventures, and several angel investors. They have announced that the funds will be used to grow the team and further develop their product. Spark Capital Partner, Kevin Thau, is expected to join the Board of Directors.

    Apart from a compelling story, Samiur Rahman also believes that understanding the funding fuel, having strong intros, and having a stronger deck is very important to drive the attention of the investors and get proper funding. Samiur Rshman and Sam DeBrule began preparing for their pitch in April, addressing every minor detail to hook the investors on their ideas. Asking friends for strong introductions can go a long way as far as the presentation is concerned.

    Conclusion

    A successful pitch is the culmination of clear vision, confidence, creativity, and convincing capabilities. It is not an overnight journey. Samiur Rahman and Sam DeBrule are exceptional examples of two individuals who worked together for a shared vision that is going to help a large number of people.

  • The Liquor Industry in India – All You Need to Know

    India’s liquor industry has been experiencing unprecedented growth in recent years, making it one of the fastest-growing beverage markets globally. According to the Indian Council for Research on International Economic Relations (ICRIER), the market size of the Indian liquor industry was estimated to be 52.5 billion USD (approximately Rs. 4 lakh crore) in 2020. The market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 6.8% between 2020 to 2023. India accounts for the third largest market for alcoholic beverages in the world. The per capita alcohol consumption in India is nearly 5.5 litres which is pretty low compared to the global average of 6.2 litres. This growth can be attributed to various factors such as increasing urbanization, rising disposable income, and changing consumer preferences.

    However, in the last two years, this industry has gone through a lot of ups and downs. During COVID, it witnessed complete lockdowns, high taxes and other levies, post-covid increased sales, and changes in distribution patterns following COVID restrictions, new product mixes, and so on. Despite its massive consumption, India also exports its alcoholic beverages to the world.

    In this blog, we will delve deeper into the liquor industry in India, exploring its growth trajectory, challenges, government policies, market trends, and consumer behavior. Join us as we discover the dynamic and evolving landscape of the liquor industry in India.

    The Indian Alcohol Market

    The alcohol market in India is primarily divided into four categories:

    • Indian-made Foreign Liquor (IMFL): This term is used by the governments to designate the types of liquors that are domestically manufactured apart from the indigenous alcoholic beverages like feni, arrack, etc. IMFL category includes drinks like Rum, brandy, whiskey, vodka, gin, etc.
    • Beer: This segment comprises all sorts of beer, strong or mild. United breweries dominate the market with its Kingfisher beer.
    • Wine: It has three main types- red wine, white wine, and rose wine. India is also a huge market for wine that is both imported and produced in the country itself. Wine customers are mostly from the middle-class urban population. Maharashtra and Karnataka have the largest vineyards in India.
    • Indian-made Indian liquor (IMIL) or Country Liquor: These are regional drinks that are locally produced. For instance, Feni is the most popular local drink which is produced in parts of Goa. Feni is made of cashew or coconut. Similarly, Mahua is prevalent in parts of Bihar, Bengal, and Jharkhand. Almost every state in India has its regional drinks consumed by its local population.

    Alcoholic Beverage Consumption in India (2020-2024)

    The rate of consumption of alcohol has been growing in India for the last three decades. After the pandemic, the swift bounce back of alcohol shows the vast customer base inside the country. Because of India’s high population growth rate, every year produces 13 million drinking-age adults of which at least 3-5 million eventually end up consuming alcohol in some way or another which shows an increase in the rate of consumption of it at a huge pace.

    With such a high-growth trajectory, consumption patterns are significantly changing with surprising trends emerging every year in the alcohol industry. World statistics show that India is the largest consumer of whiskey. Additionally, India is the 9th largest alcohol consumer in the world from the perspective of consumption volume.

    According to the National Family Health Survey-5 (NFHS-5) 2019-21, alcohol consumption among both men and women is higher in rural India than in urban India. Overall, 1% of women aged between 15-49, drink alcohol, compared to 22% of men in the same age group.

    Historical Evidence of Alcohol Drinking in India

    Alcohol in ancient India
    Alcohol In Ancient India

    Alcohol in ancient India was a homegrown staple. India was the civilization that discovered and mastered the science of the distillation of alcohol. The evidence of distillation setups was excavated by archaeologists from the sites of the Harappan civilization. The ability to process alcohol in our metabolism must have been adopted by humanity when they started eating fermented fruits.

    The Chalcolithic era marked the first evidence of the presence of alcoholic beverages in India during the Indus valley civilization. Sura was the favorite drink of that era, a beverage brewed from rice meal, wheat, sugarcane, grapes, and many other fruits. It was very popular among the population of Kshatriya warriors and peasants.

    According to Hindu Ayurvedic texts, consumption of alcohol has been regarded as beneficial and acts as a remedy for a few health concerns if consumed in moderation but could be detrimental if consumed in excess, ultimately becoming the cause of intoxication and alcoholic diseases. The Ayurveda texts even have specific details on when can the alcohol be consumed and how to prevent someone from getting intoxicated. It also states that if a person is suffering from illness, anger, loneliness, starvation, or paranoia, they should abstain from consuming alcohol; its consumption will only worsen their condition.

    In ancient India, the consumption of alcohol was limited to the orthodox section of society. Whereas the early Vedic period also states that drinking alcohol was also prevalent among the priestly class.

    As per the great Hindu Epics, Ramayana and Mahabharat, the consumption of alcohol is considered bad. People who consumed alcohol and meat are from the evil section and the good ones did not consume alcohol and were vegetarians.

    When Jainism started flourishing in 563 BC, the consumption of alcohol was considered a bad habit. According to the teachings of Mahavira (founder of Jainism), complete abstinence from alcohol is regarded as a moral value that every person should adhere to furnish their life with peace and prosperity.

    The Rig Veda also takes about intoxicants such as soma (a soma plant-based drink) and prahamana. The soma plant has hallucinogenic properties and was consumed traditionally due to its healing properties. It was a common belief that the one who drinks soma will never age and will be unaffected by fire, poison, or any sort of weapon attack.

    Challenges Faced By Indian Liquor Industry

    The liquor industry in India faces several challenges, ranging from regulatory hurdles and high taxes to shifting consumer preferences and evolving market dynamics. Here are some of the major challenges faced by the liquor industry in India:

    1. Regulatory Hurdles – The liquor industry in India is heavily regulated, with a complex web of laws and regulations governing production, distribution, and sale. This can make it difficult for companies to navigate the system and can lead to delays and bureaucratic red tape.
    2. High Taxes – The liquor industry in India is subject to high taxes, which can drive up the cost of production and reduce profit margins. In addition, taxes can vary widely from state to state, making it difficult for companies to plan and budget effectively.
    3. Changing Consumer Preferences – As India’s economy grows and consumer tastes evolve, companies in the liquor industry must adapt to changing trends and preferences. For example, there is a growing demand for premium and craft spirits, as well as low-alcohol and non-alcoholic beverages.
    4. Distribution Challenges – The distribution system in India is highly fragmented and can be difficult to navigate, particularly for small and medium-sized companies. This can make it challenging to get products to market and can limit the reach of companies in the industry.
    5. Competition – The liquor industry in India is highly competitive, with several large players dominating the market. This can make it difficult for new and innovative companies to gain a foothold and compete effectively.

    Despite these challenges, the liquor industry in India continues to grow and evolve, with several startups and established companies finding success in this dynamic and fast-growing sector.

    Regulation Over Consumption of Alcohol

    The Maurya period was the first when a mechanism was made to control and tax the sale of liquor. Public drinking was only allowed during festivals and public occasions, otherwise, there were designated areas for drinking. It can be thus said that even today civilization follows a similar kind of structure to maintain a restraint over drinkers.

    If we investigate today’s time, laws over the consumption of alcohol in India are a state subject. Hence, the laws differ from state to state. Also, alcohol does not fall under the newly applied GST rule and therefore the revenue generated from it goes directly to the state government. However, old taxes and fees such as Excise duty on production, State VAT on sale, and other fees such as gallonage and license continue to be applied. It is only because of these charges that the liquor industry in India is seeing a desperate increase in its incentives. For instance, liquor is banned in Gujarat, but Uttar Pradesh has collected the highest revenue from the excise tax on the production of liquor. Puducherry, a UT has its primary income from alcohol trading, but Goa has the least taxes.

    About 70% of what customer pays for drinks goes to the state governments. The cost of bringing an alcohol brand to the market is even higher than its cost of production. This is all done to regulate the consumption of alcohol considering the health of consumers, yet the government keeps on getting more money from the industry as the percentage of drinkers keeps increasing year after year. Growth in the urban population and increasing purchasing power propel the market growth of alcohol.
