जुगाद (Devanāgarī)

A cross between the idea of an entrepreneur and an odd-job man; or, simply an innovative "quick fix" for a problem. Also refers to a type of home-grown motor vehicle made for necessary transport.

Perhaps similar to bricolage.

Among many, many other things, there is a company called Jugaad making "mastiful things" to be found in eco-conscious shops of the UK.
