Role of Human Resource Management in Enhancing Institutional Effectiveness of Aided Colleges
type: item
description: Human Resource Management (HRM) plays a pivotal role in enhancing the institutional effectiveness of higher education institutions, particularly aided colleges that operate under both governmental regulations and autonomous administrative frameworks. Institutional effectiveness refers to the extent to which an institution achieves its academic, administrative, and social objectives through optimal utilization of human and material resources. In aided colleges, the quality of teaching, research productivity, student outcomes, and administrative efficiency are largely influenced by the effectiveness of HRM practices adopted by the institution. This study examines the role of Human Resource Management in enhancing institutional effectiveness in aided colleges by focusing on key HRM functions such as recruitment and selection, training and development, performance appraisal, motivation, and employee welfare measures. The study emphasizes how systematic HRM practices contribute to improved faculty performance, organizational commitment, leadership effectiveness, and a positive institutional climate. Effective HRM practices foster professional development among teaching and non-teaching staff, encourage participative management, and ensure alignment between individual goals and institutional objectives. Furthermore, the study highlights the challenges faced by aided colleges in implementing modern HRM practices due to policy constraints, financial limitations, and administrative rigidity. By analyzing the relationship between HRM practices and institutional effectiveness, this paper provides insights into how aided colleges can strengthen their organizational performance and educational quality. The findings of the study suggest that strategic HRM implementation is essential for achieving sustainable institutional effectiveness and enhancing the overall quality of higher education in aided colleges.

The Impact of Buy-Now-Pay-Later Schemes on Young Consumers’ Spending Patterns: An Economic Perspective
type: item
description: Buy-Now-Pay-Later (BNPL) schemes have rapidly emerged as one of the most influential financial innovations in the digital marketplace, especially among young consumers who actively engage in online shopping. This study examines how BNPL services shape the spending behaviour of young users by analysing their purchasing decisions, budgeting habits, and overall financial responsibility. The findings indicate that the convenience and interest-free structure of BNPL encourage more frequent purchases and reduce the psychological impact of spending, often leading to impulsive buying and lower savings. Evidence from recent research also suggests that limited financial literacy and strong social influences make young consumers more vulnerable to hidden fees, repayment delays, and debt accumulation. At the same time, BNPL has contributed to greater accessibility of products and increased retail activity, demonstrating its dual role as both an enabler of financial flexibility and a potential driver of over-consumption. By evaluating the economic implications, risks, and behavioural trends associated with BNPL, this study highlights the importance of financial education, responsible usage, and stronger regulatory oversight to ensure that young consumers can benefit from BNPL without compromising long-term financial stability.

A Study on Demand Elasticity and Its Influence on Market Trends
type: item
description: Demand elasticity serves as a critical analytical tool for understanding how consumers respond to changes in price, income, and the prices of related goods, and how these responses influence market behavior over time. This study examines the three core types of elasticity—price elasticity, income elasticity, and cross elasticity—and evaluates their impact on consumption patterns, pricing decisions, competitive dynamics, and long-term industry trends. Drawing on evidence from diverse sectors such as luxury apparel, basic food commodities, fast food services, pharmaceuticals, and consumer electronics, the research highlights how different sensitivity levels to price fluctuations determine whether markets evolve rapidly or remain stable. By employing secondary numerical data, elasticity formulas, and regression analysis, the paper quantifies demand responsiveness and identifies major determinants such as consumer preferences, substitute availability, product nature, and time periods. The findings confirm that elasticity is not only a theoretical construct but a practical economic indicator used by businesses for pricing strategy, product positioning, and forecasting, and by policymakers for taxation, subsidy planning, and social welfare frameworks. Overall, the study reinforces the continuing relevance of elasticity in shaping modern markets, particularly in a globalized economy characterised by volatile consumption behavior and dynamic competitive pressures.
