In today’s hospitality landscape, guest experience goes far beyond comfort, it directly impacts reviews, repeat stays, and overall revenue. Addressing this shift, Palaniappa Electronics has introduced Hepi TV, a smart in-room hospitality solution that transforms the traditional guest room television into a powerful, revenue-generating platform designed exclusively for hotels.

Powered by the Palaniappa’s Hepi TV Box, the system replaces passive television viewing with an intuitive home screen built around four smart components that focus on convenience, upselling, and operational efficiency.

One of the standout features is interactive restaurant ordering directly from the TV. Hotels can upload their restaurant menus with visually rich video backdrops for each dish, along with pricing. Guests can browse, select items, choose quantities, and confirm orders using the remote. Once placed, the order is instantly shared via WhatsApp with the kitchen team, room service staff, and management, allowing faster processing and billing without any phone calls. This seamless experience encourages impulse ordering and helps increase F&B revenue.

Hepi TV also simplifies room service requests through one-click options available on the screen. Services such as requesting towels, toiletries, laundry pickup, or spa bookings can be placed instantly. Each request is sent via WhatsApp to the relevant department with the room number, enabling quicker response times. The system also generates service usage reports, helping hotel teams understand guest demand patterns and improve planning.

 Another key feature is cab and tour booking through the TV interface. Guests can request transport or tours directly from their rooms, triggering alerts to both the hotel and partnered operators. This adds convenience for guests while opening up commission-based revenue opportunities for hotels.

 On the entertainment front, the Hepi TV Premium Package offers access to all paid HD channels across languages, removing the limitation of single regional DTH packs. Popular OTT platforms are available on the same interface, with complete privacy protection as guest login details are automatically erased at checkout. Adding a personal touch, the guest’s name is displayed on the TV screen from check-in to checkout, creating a warm and premium welcome.

Hotels can further use the platform as a marketing tool by uploading up to six branded 4K videos to promote services, offers, or facilities, turning every TV into an in-room communication channel.

All these features are available at ₹400 plus GST per TV per month, with no capital investment required, as the Hepi TV box is provided free of cost. For hotel owners and general managers, Hepi TV positions itself not as an expense, but as a smart investment that enhances guest experience, improves operational control, and generates additional revenue.

Palaniappa Electronics continues to strengthen its standing as a trusted partner for hospitality electronics, known for reliable quality, timely delivery, and dedicated support. Trusted by multiple hotel brands, the company remains a preferred name in the hospitality industry for innovative products and dependable service.

In today’s hospitality landscape, the guest room TV is no longer just an amenity - it’s a critical touchpoint for security, experience, and cost control, and the Samsung Hospitality TV HG Series, purpose-built for hotels, delivers exactly what hoteliers need: guest data protection, operational savings, and premium entertainment.

Guest OTT Security - A Feature No Other Brand Offers: One of the most overlooked risks in hotel rooms is OTT login security, where guests log into personal streaming accounts and forget to sign out, exposing credentials to the next occupant, but Samsung HG Series solves this by design because every time the TV is switched off using the remote, all OTT login credentials are automatically erased, ensuring complete protection of guest data - a unique security feature that competing hospitality TVs simply do not offer.

TV as a Secure Internet Hotspot – Smarter Than Wi-Fi: With a LAN connection to the TV, the Samsung HG Series can act as a secure wireless hotspot, allowing guests to connect via a one-time OTP displayed on the TV screen, delivering full traceability of internet usage mapped to room, guest, date and time while enabling massive cost savings by reducing the need for multiple routers and access points.

200+ Live Internet Channels – No Extra Hardware: The HG Series offers 200+ live internet channels across news, entertainment and lifestyle, eliminating the need for IP TV systems or traditional set-top boxes.

No Set-Top Box Required – OTT Is Already Inbuilt: With all major OTT apps inbuilt, hotels benefit from zero STB rental costs, cleaner rooms with less wiring and faster, simpler guest usage.

One Remote, Clean Look, Better Experience: For properties that still retain set-top boxes, Samsung HG TVs support single-remote operation, removing the clutter of multiple remotes and avoiding cheap, flimsy STB remotes, thereby preserving a premium room aesthetic.

For GMs and Property Owners, the Samsung Hospitality TV HG Series is not just a television - it’s a security-first, cost-efficient, guest-centric solution designed exclusively for hotels, and if guest privacy, operational savings, and a premium in-room experience matter, it’s time to see the Samsung HG Series in action.

Navabrind IT Solutions, a leading Odoo Gold Partner, has announced its participation in the 15th edition of Source India – Electronics Supply Chain, aligning with the event’s theme, “Redefining the Indian Electronics Supply Chain.”

Jointly attending the event with Odoo, the company will showcase its specialised ERP expertise tailored for the electronics value chain at the Chennai Trade Centre on February 10–11, 2026. With India’s electronics sector witnessing rapid growth driven by government initiatives such as the Production-Linked Incentive (PLI) scheme and rising domestic demand, manufacturers are increasingly challenged by complex supply chains and strict quality norms, areas where Navabrind positions Odoo as a unified command centre for end-to-end operations.

At Booth #D83, visitors will experience live demonstrations of Odoo modules configured for electronics manufacturing, including real-time MRP dashboards for shop-floor visibility, integrated Sales, CRM, and Purchase modules linking demand to production, and advanced Product Lifecycle Management for engineering change orders and version-controlled BOMs, along with lot and serial traceability and multi-stage quality checks aligned with BIS standards.

The showcase will also highlight Odoo’s modular architecture, open API, Studio integrations, and advanced costing tools such as landed cost calculations and material variance reporting. Commenting on the participation, Vasanth Anantaraman, CEO of Navabrind IT Solutions, said, “The ambition to build ‘Atmanirbhar Bharat’ in electronics rests on the backbone of efficient, transparent, and agile operations. Legacy, disconnected systems are the biggest roadblock to this ambition,” adding, “At Source India, will demonstrate how a unified Odoo ERP platform is not just a software implementation, but a strategic lever to gain end-to-end visibility, mitigate supply chain risks, and build a globally competitive manufacturing outfit.”

Venkatesh Nagarajan, CTO of Navabrind IT Solutions, added, “For electronics manufacturers, complexity is a given, be it in product designs, component sourcing, and compliance requirements. Our expertise lies in configuring Odoo’s powerful modules, such as PLM, Quality, and advanced traceability, to master this complexity.”
