Vantara

Vantara, a Reliance initiative, is indeed derived from Sanskrit words. The correct pronunciation is "Van-Tara" (वन तारा).

Breaking it down:

- "Van" (वन) means "forest" or "woods" in Sanskrit.

- "Tara" (तारा) means "star" or "ray of light".

So, Vantara can be interpreted as "Star of the Forest" or "Ray of Light from the Woods".
