Vijay Kedia Hold 1.02 Per Cent Stake: Tata-Group Company and Intel Team Up to Bring D2M Capability to Laptops Ushering in New Possibilities for Universal Education
The stock is up by 15 per cent from its 52-week low of Rs 647 per share and has given multibagger returns of over 1,700 per cent in just 5 years.
Tejas Networks and Intel have joined forces to introduce Direct-to-Mobile (D2M) functionality to Intel-powered laptops, a development announced just before the World Audio Visual & Entertainment Summit (WAVES) 2025 in Bengaluru. This collaboration marks a significant step towards democratizing education in India by enabling the delivery of AI-enhanced educational content directly to students. The D2M technology, currently a proof-of-concept at IIT Kanpur, utilises existing terrestrial TV broadcast airwaves to transmit live TV, video, audio, and text messages, effectively bypassing the need for Wi-Fi or internet connectivity.
This integration of D2M into Intel's PC platform by Tejas Networks paves the way for a new generation of computing devices capable of delivering education without the limitations of network availability, offering a cost-effective solution to bridge the digital divide. This initiative directly supports Prime Minister Narendra Modi's vision of a Viksit Bharat by 2047, where universal access to education is a fundamental pillar. The partnership underscores the success of India's 'Design in India' and 'Make in India' initiatives, showcasing indigenous technological prowess.
The innovative laptop design features an Intel processor and an integrated antenna, working in tandem with Tejas Networks' Saankhya SL-3000 SDR chipset to enable D2M services. Furthermore, Tejas Networks has developed a comprehensive suite of infrastructure hardware and software essential for D2M network deployment. This end-to-end, indigenously developed technology, powered by the SL3000 SDR chipset, has undergone extensive testing in live networks by Prasar Bharati in collaboration with IIT Kanpur and Tejas Networks over the past several years, demonstrating its readiness for widespread implementation.
