Now, snapdeal to deliver cash at home

December 22, 2016

New Delhi, Dec 22: E-commerce company Snapdeal today announced the launch of a 'Cash@Home'; service, which allows users to order Rs 2,000 cash and get it delivered at their doorstep.

"The launch of the cash on demand service is intended to further help our consumers tide over any cash crunch that they might face in addressing their daily needs," Snapdeal Co-founder Rohit Bansal said in a statement.

Snapdeal will be using the cash that it receives through Cash on Delivery (CoD) to operate this facility.

Snapdeal will charge a nominal amount of Rupee 1 as convenience fee, which will need to be paid through FreeCharge or through a debit card at the time of booking the order.

"At the time of cash delivery, the consumers will need to swipe their ATM card on the PoS machines, which Snapdeal's courier partners will carry for all such deliveries. Once transaction is successful, the courier person will hand over Rs 2,000 in cash," the statement said.

Under the service, an user can request Rs 2,000 per booking, and any bank's ATM card can be used to pay for the cash. The customers are not obligated to order anything else from Snapdeal to access the 'Cash@Home'; facility, the statement added.

The service is already live in Gurgaon and Bangalore, and will be extended to other major cities in the coming days, with the operative details to be updated as per user feedback and availability of currency notes, the statement said.

Mangaluru: As many as 22 affiliated private degree colleges under Mangalore University (MU) will be shut down voluntarily after they failed to seek renewal of affiliation, primarily due to poor student enrolment and operational constraints. The decision was taken at a recent Academic Council meeting of the university.

The 22 colleges are:

Aaba Women’s First Grade College, Surathkal

Anjuman First Grade College, Mangaluru

Amrutha College, Padil

Silicon College of Advance Studies, Konchady

Vice-Chancellor Prof. P.L. Dharma said principals of the affected colleges informed the university that they were compelled to suspend admissions for several courses after failing to secure the prescribed minimum number of students. Consequently, the managements opted for voluntary closure under Section 65 of the Karnataka State Universities Act, 2000.

Apart from low enrolment, other administrative and financial factors also contributed to the decision to shut down the colleges, the Vice-Chancellor said. He clarified that the closures will not affect students who are already enrolled and currently pursuing their studies. The colleges have been directed to continue providing all student-related services, including verification of marks cards and academic records.

After the closure of these 22 colleges, the total number of colleges affiliated to Mangalore University will stand at 167, comprising 109 private colleges, 32 government colleges, nine autonomous colleges, 13 BEd colleges, and four constituent colleges.
