जुगाड़(Jugaad) - Its generally a workaround to solve things which are needed to be solved but cannot be done the conventional ways due to lack of resources or the knowledge about it.
Jugaad usually comes in handy when you are short of money or time but you need to have that thing anyhow . I believe no one word substitution to it in other languages.
