Abstract

The rise of digital technology has significantly transformed consumer behavior, particularly among young individuals in India. Increased screen time, social media influence, and digital payment methods have contributed to impulsive spending habits. This study examines the impact of digital addiction on youth consumerism, emphasizing psychological, behavioral, and socio-economic factors. This study adopts a qualitative research design with a phenomenological approach with young consumers aged 18–30 in urban India. The data collection focused on digital consumption patterns, purchasing behavior, and financial awareness. Statistical analysis was employed to assess correlations between digital addiction levels and spending habits. Findings indicate that digital addiction significantly influences youth consumerism through instant gratification, Fear of Missing Out (FOMO), and algorithm-driven advertising. Social media platforms and influencer marketing intensify impulsive buying behaviors. The increasing adoption of Buy Now, Pay Later (BNPL) schemes fosters financial instability, pushing many young consumers into debt cycles. Additionally, excessive digital engagement has socio-economic implications, affecting traditional retail businesses and financial well-being. The study highlights the need for regulatory measures, including financial literacy programs and ethical digital marketing practices, to mitigate the negative impacts of digital-driven consumerism. A multi-stakeholder approach involving policymakers, educators, and businesses is essential for promoting responsible digital consumption among Indian youth.

Abstract

Agriculture faces increasing challenges due to climate change, requiring innovative solutions to ensure sustainability and productivity. AgriTech, encompassing precision farming, AI-driven crop management, and blockchain-based supply chains, offers promising advancements in mitigating climate change effects. However, its adoption remains limited due to economic and infrastructural barriers. This study employs a comparative analysis of AgriTech-based and traditional agricultural methods, utilizing statistical data to assess their effectiveness in addressing climate change challenges. A one-sample t-test was conducted to evaluate the significance of AgriTech interventions, highlighting differences in mean values and confidence intervals. The findings indicate that while AgriTech significantly contributes to climate change adaptation (t = 8.85, df = 49, p < .001), its impact is lower compared to traditional methods due to barriers such as high initial costs and limited access to technology. Despite this, precision agriculture, climate-smart techniques, and blockchain integration demonstrate potential for improving sustainability and efficiency. The study highlights the importance of policy support, financial incentives, and technological literacy in promoting AgriTech adoption. Business opportunities in AgriTech continue to grow, but overcoming adoption challenges requires collaborative efforts from stakeholders, including governments, investors, and farmers. AgriTech has the potential to revolutionize sustainable agriculture by balancing productivity and environmental responsibility. However, further research is needed to explore localized implementation strategies, AI integration, and economic feasibility for smallholder farmers to ensure widespread adoption.

Abstract

Bank mergers are a common strategy to enhance operational and financial performance in the banking industry. This study aims to evaluate the impact of mergers on banks in India by measuring various financial and operational metrics before and after the merger. This research employs a quantitative approach using secondary data analysis from financial reports of merged banks. Data from the pre-merger and post-merger periods were collected to compare key performance indicators, such as Return on Assets (ROA), Return on Equity (ROE), Net Interest Margin (NIM), and operational efficiency ratio. A total of 10 merger cases over the last 10 years were analyzed using descriptive statistics and paired t-tests. The findings indicate that mergers positively impact several financial performance indicators. The average ROA increased from 0.85% to 1.25% within two years post-merger. ROE also rose by 2.5 percentage points. Additionally, operational efficiency improved, with the cost-to-income ratio decreasing from 48% to 43%. However, some banks experienced a decline in NIM from 3.2% to 2.9%, indicating challenges in maintaining profitability from interest-earning assets. These findings suggest that bank mergers in India generally provide benefits in terms of operational efficiency and profitability. However, the positive impact is not uniform, as some banks struggle to maintain net interest margins. Factors such as operational synergy, risk management, and regulatory policies play a role in post-merger outcomes. Bank mergers in India have a positive impact on financial and operational performance, despite certain challenges that need to be addressed. The findings of this study can serve as a reference for policymakers and bank management in designing more effective merger strategies in the future.

Abstract

Islamic commercial banks have gained prominence in Indonesia’s financial system, yet their profitability still lags behind conventional banks. Understanding the financial determinants that influence the profitability of these institutions is critical for improving their competitiveness and ensuring sustainable growth. This study investigates the effects of Capital Adequacy Ratio (CAR), Non-Performing Financing (NPF), Operating Costs to Operating Income (BOPO), and Financing to Deposit Ratio (FDR) on bank profitability, measured by Return on Assets (ROA). This research adopted a quantitative approach using secondary data from the annual financial statements of 12 Islamic commercial banks registered with the Financial Services Authority (OJK) of Indonesia, covering the years 2019 to 2023. Multiple linear regression analysis was applied after conducting descriptive statistics and classical assumption tests, including normality, multicollinearity, heteroscedasticity, and autocorrelation. The regression model was used to examine the relationship between the four independent variables (CAR, NPF, BOPO, FDR) and ROA. The findings show that CAR and FDR have a significant positive effect on ROA, indicating that strong capital adequacy and efficient liquidity management improve profitability. In contrast, NPF and BOPO negatively affect ROA, demonstrating that high credit risk and operational inefficiency diminish bank performance. The regression model explains 72.3% of the variance in ROA, confirming the robustness and relevance of the selected variables in determining profitability. The results are consistent with agency and liquidity preference theories and highlight the distinctive challenges faced by Islamic banks, such as compliance-related costs and limitations in accessing conventional financial instruments. Operational efficiency, credit quality, and liquidity management emerge as critical strategic areas.

Abstract

Zakat, often perceived merely as a religious obligation or charitable act, holds untapped potential as a strategic instrument for socio-economic transformation in Muslim communities. This study argues that zakat must be viewed not just as an act of giving, but as a fund requiring professional management to realize its full impact on community development and the future of the Ummah. Using a qualitative research design, the study explores professional fund management practices in selected Zakat Management Units (UPZs) across Indonesia. Data were collected through in-depth interviews with UPZ leaders and financial managers, as well as document analysis of financial reports, program structures, and governance models. The findings indicate that UPZs which adopt professional financial governance—characterized by transparency, accountability, data-driven planning, and skilled human resources—are significantly more effective in achieving measurable outcomes such as improved mustahik welfare, sustainable livelihoods, and increased trust from muzakki. Professionalism transforms zakat from reactive charity into proactive socio-economic empowerment. This study underscores the urgency of redefining zakat management frameworks to embrace modern financial and organizational practices while remaining rooted in Sharia principles. As zakat institutions become more professional, they not only fulfill their spiritual mandate but also emerge as pivotal players in driving the long-term resilience and welfare of the Ummah. The future of Islamic social finance lies in bridging tradition with innovation through professional stewardship.

Abstract

This study analyzes the wage payment system in the cracker industry in Panyabungan from the perspective of Imam Maliki's thoughts. Wage payment practices in this industry often do not align with the principles of justice and agreements prescribed in Islam, necessitating an in-depth examination. This study employs a qualitative approach with a case study method. Data were collected through observations, in-depth interviews with workers and business owners, and literature studies on Imam Maliki's views regarding wage systems. The findings indicate that the wage payment system in the cracker industry in Panyabungan tends to be non-transparent and is often implemented on a daily basis without written contracts. From Imam Maliki’s perspective, this system has shortcomings as it does not fully ensure workers' rights. Discussions with business owners revealed that economic factors and production efficiency are the primary reasons for maintaining this practice. This study reveals that although the wage system in the cracker industry has been practiced for generations, it still does not fully comply with the principles of justice in Islam according to Imam Maliki. This research has limitations in terms of geographical coverage and the number of participants. Therefore, future research can expand the study area and compare wage payment systems with the perspectives of other Islamic schools of thought.
