Another newsletter about commerce with flashy facts and crunching numbers? Are you thinking the same? Honestly, we don't blame you. To clear your misconceptions about this one, let's hear directly from the visionary behind this initiative, or the OBGs, as they share their perspective on Manthan and its true essence.
What is Manthan?
“Behind every initiative we take at ComSoc KMC, there’s a conscious decision to create some sort of value for everyone who engages with anything that we do. Manthan, a born child of the same ethos, is an attempt to curate a platform that ignites curiosity in the minds of our readers and satiates their hunger for cognition. While we move towards bridging this knowledge gap, we also desire to create a medium for self-expression, a space that fosters the feeling of being heard. With an unwavering belief that knowledge shared is knowledge gained, I hope that everyone interacting with this platform feels that the time they devote here has been valuable for them, and if they leave feeling enlightened, eager for more, or even with nothing but a smile, the team will have accomplished its goal.”
-Apoorv Arora, President
As deciphered from the above notion, ComSoc KMC has ventured into new territory with its groundbreaking endeavor, Manthan. This initiative, introduced as a weekly publication, aims to serve as a comprehensive resource hub for knowledge-seekers. Beyond delivering information, it seeks to cultivate a thriving community. It's a new action to bridge the gap in idea sharing and infuse a sense of curiosity and inquisitiveness among the members and the readers.
As the name insinuates, Manthan mirrors profound assertions and emotions, acting as a bridge between individuals and their innermost musings, translating thinking into phrases. Manthan, sculpted into a scaffold, offers an inclusive space for individuals to express their personal introspections and contemplations on various subjects within an official setting.
What does Manthan focus on?
“Manthan is a platform where minds converge to share thoughts, ideas, and views that spark inspiration and change. Whether it's innovation, creativity, or diverse perspectives, Manthan is where your voice matters. If you are just reading something or watching the news and have an opinion to share, Manthan is the place for you. Let's create a habit of expressing ourselves & embark on this intellectual voyage together. Eager to see how this space evolves!”
- Akshat Gandhi, Vice President
Casting an extensive and inviting stage, Manthan unfolds as a blank canvas where individuals, notably aspiring writers, are encouraged to stretch the boundaries of their creativity and engage with an audience that shares the same interests. This platform embodies the spirit of open presentation, proposing a boundless expanse for minds to wander, ideas to flourish, and voices to resonate in an environment where thoughts find their elevated form and connections flourish.
The field expands as an unrestricted area, as it is not only bound to commerce but delves into a diverse spectrum of topics. It will probe into various subject matters like the metaverse, sports, science and technology, artificial intelligence, diplomacy, politics, economics, space tourism, and many more.
Who are the voices behind Manthan?
“Since I was a member, I always felt that the one thing ComSoc lacked was a dedicated member’s corner. A space where your thoughts, ideas, and passions can truly shine. That's why we are thrilled to introduce our inaugural newsletter - Manthan! This newsletter is all you, whether you want to share the topics close to your heart or simply give a bit of your 'gyaan,' this is the place to do it. The potential is boundless and I am excited to see how Manthan evolves !”
Jiya Jindal, General Secretary
Manthan is a medium that invites society members and external contributors to share their opinions and sentiments. It goes beyond articles; it illuminates various standpoints and highlights individuals possessing a wealth of knowledge. ComSoc KMC aims to provide an outlet for ardent individuals to share their authentic thoughts through articles, enriching readers, writers, and creators with expertise. This initiative is not merely a simple portal for aspiring writers; it stands as a comprehensive platform where individuals can widen their proficiency by delving into diverse subjects.
Who is the Publisher?
The Commerce Society, or ComSoc of Kirori Mal College, is a student-run organisation dedicated to representing and fostering excellence while representing the Department of Commerce. ComSoc KMC is distinguished as an event-centric society with a singular dedication: nurturing commerce, trade, and finance aspirants. ComSoc's core mission is succinctly defined by three guiding principles: the three I's, i.e., ignite, initiate, and invigorate. The primary goal is to equip students with the skills and confidence to excel and empower them to embrace the challenges of the real world and make a lasting impact.
As someone who has long recognized the scarcity of opportunities for emerging writers within ComSoc, I am thrilled to the core to introduce our latest endeavour, Manthan. This undertaking is dedicated to our exceptional team and to all those who share our unwavering commitment to this journey of learning. Manthan is a testament to our collective passion and marks the inception of a transformative quest that guarantees to enrich us all.”
-Kushagr Sinha, Secretary
The dedicated team at ComSoc has tirelessly pursued its mission, striving for the holistic development of everyone it touches. Manthan has been brought to life as a part of the said mission. Manthan crystallizes our devotion and commitment, serving as a testament to our relentless pursuit of growth and professional enrichment.
From the Editorial Base
“Manthan was crafted with a lot of love. The countless discussions, meetings, and brainstorming sessions essayed to assemble every piece of it to fit perfectly in the puzzle of building a platform open and accessible to everyone were truly worthwhile—and I loved every single bit of it! As the head under whose tenure Manthan was born into life, no doubt, I will adore every single moment of its growth! Stay tuned and subscribe to see how Manthan unfolds!”
-Shreeya Sankhla, Research and Editorial Head

Manthan will give the readers a glimpse into the brilliant minds that constitute the backbone of ComSoc, as we engage in thought-provoking discussions and articles that will ignite your intellectual curiosity. This is not just a newsletter; it's an opportunity for every member to shine, and I can't wait to see what we'll create together. So, stay tuned, stay curious, and keep those articles coming!”
