Gold Price Crosses Rs 1 Lakh Per Sovereign Again in Chennai; Silver Rates Also Rise

On the occasion of the English New Year, gold prices in Chennai witnessed a slight decline, offering temporary relief to buyers. The price of gold, which stood at ₹12,480 per gram the day before yesterday, fell by ₹40 yesterday and was sold at ₹12,440 per gram. Accordingly, one sovereign (8 grams) of 22-carat gold was priced at ₹99,520, down by ₹320 from the previous day’s rate of ₹99,840. After days of continuous competitive increases in gold and silver prices, this brief dip brought some comfort to consumers. However, the relief was short-lived, as gold prices surged again today, with the price of one sovereign crossing the ₹1 lakh mark. In Chennai today, the price of 22-carat gold has increased by ₹140 per gram and is being sold at ₹12,580 per gram. Consequently, one sovereign has risen by ₹1,120 and is now priced at ₹1,00,640. Silver prices have also followed an upward trend. The price of silver has increased by ₹4 per gram and is currently being sold at ₹260 per gram. Bar silver is priced at ₹2,60,000.

How Protein Naturally Supports Fat Loss

Eating more protein can help regulate appetite, boost metabolism, and protect muscle during weight loss. It influences both how much you eat (calories in) and how many calories you burn (calories out). How Protein Helps with Weight Loss 1.

Burns Calories During DigestionProtein has the highest thermic effect of food (TEF):– Protein: 20–30% of calories burned– Carbs: 5–10%– Fat: 0–3%Bottom line: Your body uses more energy to process protein, increasing calorie burn. 3. Boosts Daily Energy ExpenditureHigher protein intake can:– Raise metabolic rate– Increase calories burned at rest– Maintain lean muscleBottom line: May help burn more calories throughout the day, even while sleeping. 4. Reduces Appetite & SnackingHigher protein intake is more satiating, making portion control easier.– Can lead to consuming hundreds of fewer calories/day– Weight loss possible without calorie countingBottom line: Supports natural, effortless calorie reduction. 5. Preserves Muscle & MetabolismWhen losing weight:– Muscle loss can reduce metabolism– Protein + strength training protects muscle– Aids long-term weight maintenanceBottom line: Helps retain muscle and support sustained fat loss. How Much Protein Do You Need?For weight loss, aim for:– 25–35% of daily calories from protein– Or 0.7 to 1 g per pound of body weight/day (1.5–2.2 g/kg)Example (2,000 calories/day): 150 g proteinSpread intake across meals for best results. Sources of Protein– Chicken, turkey, lean beef, pork– Fish (salmon, sardines, trout)– Eggs & dairy (yogurt, cheese)– Beans, lentils, chickpeas– Whey or plant protein supplements Does protein burn belly fat?Higher protein diets are linked to reduced visceral fat around organs in some research. Can you lose weight just by eating more protein?Yes, if appetite decreases and calorie intake drops.No, if you overeat total calories. Is protein enough on its own?Best results with:– StStrength training– Whole-food diet– Moderate calorie deficit Disclaimer:This is general educational information, not personal medical or nutrition advice.

Have a Sales SOP: Right Tools, Right People, Right Process Maximise Results – by J Sampath, Founder of JB Soft System

Many businesses ask this question: “Why are sales inconsistent even when we have good people?” The answer is often simple and uncomfortable:Because there is no clear Sales SOP (Standard Operating Procedure). Sales success is not accidental.It is the outcome of clarity, discipline, and consistency. Sales Without SOP Is Like Driving Without a Map When there is no defined SOP: – Every salesperson follows their own style– Leads are handled differently by different people– Follow-ups depend on memory, mood, or pressure– Results fluctuate month after month Good salespeople may still perform.But the business cannot scale. An SOP is what converts individual effort into organizational performance. Right People Alone Are Not Enough Many business owners believe: “If I hire good salespeople, results will come.” Good people are important.But even the best people fail in a weak system. Without SOP: – New team members struggle– Seniors get overloaded– Knowledge stays in individuals, not in the company A strong SOP supports people, guides them, and reduces dependency on individuals. Right Tools Make SOP Work in Real Life An SOP written on paper is not enough.It must be executed daily. This is where the right tools matter: – Lead tracking– Follow-up reminders– Activity visibility– Performance measurement When tools support the SOP: – Discipline becomes automatic– Follow-ups become timely– Reviews become factual, not emotional Tools don’t control people.They enable consistency. Sales SOP Is Not a One-Time Exercise One common mistake businesses make: “We have created an SOP. Job done.” Sales SOP is a living system, not a static document. Markets change.Customer behavior changes.Team strength changes. So SOP must be: – Revisited periodically– Fine-tuned consciously– Improved based on real experience Every review should ask: – What is working well?– Where are leads getting stuck?– Which step creates confusion or delay? Conscious Improvement Is the Real Advantage Organizations that grow consistently do one thing well:They improve consciously, not accidentally. They don’t wait for failure to react.They proactively refine their sales process. Small improvements in SOP create: – Better conversion ratios– Shorter sales cycles– Happier customers– Confident sales teams Final Reflection Sales is not about pressure.It is about process clarity. When you have: – The right people– Supported by the right tools– Working within a clear and evolving SOP Results are no longer random.They become predictable and scalablele. Revisit your Sales SOP.Refine it consciously.Because sustainable growth is always built on strong processes.

Gold Prices Dip in Chennai on December 30 After Hitting Yearly Peak

Gold prices witnessed a steep correction on December 30 after touching their highest level of the year. The yellow metal plunged by ₹3,360 per sovereign in a single session, bringing the price down to ₹1,00,800 per sovereign (8 grams) and ₹12,600 per gram, a fall of ₹420 per gram. On December 29, gold was priced at ₹1,04,160 per sovereign and ₹13,020 per gram, already down by ₹640 from the previous session. Earlier, on the evening of December 27, gold had reached its yearly high at ₹1,04,800 per sovereign and ₹13,100 per gram. The recent volatility follows a strong rally driven by the US Federal Reserve’s rate cut and indications of further easing, which weakened the dollar and boosted safe-haven demand. A record-low rupee also supported domestic gold prices. From January 1, when gold stood at ₹57,200 per sovereign (₹7,150 per gram), prices have surged by ₹43,600—an increase of about 76.2%—before the latest correction. Silver prices also declined, falling by ₹23 to ₹258 per gram (₹2,58,000 per kg) on December 30. Recent Price Trend (22-carat gold): – Dec 29: ₹1,04,160 per sovereign | ₹13,020 per gram– Dec 27: ₹1,04,800 per sovereign | ₹13,100 per gram– Dec 26: ₹1,03,120 per sovereign | ₹12,890 per gram– Dec 25: ₹1,02,560 per sovereign | ₹12,820 per gram– Dec 24: ₹1,02,400 per sovereign | ₹12,800 per gram Silver (per gram): – Dec 29: ₹281– Dec 27: ₹285– Dec 26: ₹254– Dec 25: ₹245– Dec 24: ₹244 The sudden dip has brought some relief to buyers, even as gold continues to trade near historically high levels.
