Most of our rankings come in much later – IISc was in 251-300 category and the IITs come in much lower but we are happy that they are among the top 1000 in the world. Many are perturbed that we get ranked so poorly, even the crème de la crème of India’s education – the IITs that we are so proud of. But the question is – should it worry us at all?

Week after week, we talk about capitalistic pursuits so this week, the thought was to look at some people who could have become big in corporate world, earned bags of money but they chose to work, use their education for the benefit of others.

Apart from Omicron, the newspapers and social media cant seem to get anough of the new golden boy of India – Parag Agarwal. All headlines are quick to remind the world – An ‘Indian born’ American leading Twitter. The pride for us is in the “Indian born.” So, two points come to our mind. First – why is it always that such greats of modern India are only “Indian born” but citizens of America or UK or some other country?

It is unbelievable that it was only last week that IMF hiked India’s GDP forecast from its earlier 11.5% to 12% for FY22; so did the slew of rating agencies like Moody’s, Fitch, S&P. And just a week later, we are now staring at an almost repeat of last year- not a complete standstill but when mobility of people is restricted and supply chains once again come unhinged, definitely, economic growth will be impacted.

Oligarch is a word coined during the Soviet Union era. It referred to a person who is part of a small group that runs a country, obviously a very rich person.

How does this math add up? There is a massive jump in social schemes, so one wonders how the fiscal deficit

PSU BANKS' HR CRISIS LOOMING LARGE

about 9 years ago

logo1

Come 2018 and all the current CEOs of public sector banks will retire. In 2019, all executive directors will also retire.

Thus there is going to be a shot of "retirement exodus" of the top and middle management layer in the banking sector.

about 9 years ago

The Winter session of the Parliament begins tomorrow, 16th November and will end of 16th December. And it holds the promise of being long and cold, frosty and like always will drum up a storm. Undoubtedly, demonetization will be high of the agenda and most likely, the opposing members will not allow the session to function smoothly. But going by the past track record, the BJP will bull doze through everything - when it has won the war, who cares about the battle? The Govt has already s

At a time when the markets are lackluster, there are no evident triggers on the horizon and it is tax paying season, it is sometimes good to just sit back and take stock - not just of the stocks you own but of where you are headed. Just as this is the time when students dig into their books, revise and cram for exams, this is probably the time when we as investors can take this small time out to look into what one of the best investor in the world does - Warren Buffett. Though Buffett does not invest in Indian stocks, there are many investors who take cues from his investing patterns ....

This is the state of leadership at PSU banks when they are going through their worst times. As regards the second rung of leadership,10 are retiring in 2018, 12 in 2019 and the remaining three will retire in 2020. This is scary given the state of the banks even with leadership!

THE CHASM BETWEEN SUPER RICH AND ‘OTHERS’ GROWS

about 7 years ago

That’s a perfect example of how crony capitalism works in India. And that is also precisely why oligarchs are on the rise in India. In fact before the Ambani brothers made it to the “Forbes richest” rich, did we even know there existed such a list? We knew only of a Ford car, no rich list! But today, Indians making it to the list is so routine.

We are the fastest growing economy in the world and we are climbing higher, slowly and steady on the Ease of Doing Business ladder. But when it comes to happiness, we are slipping down consistently.

UNION BUDGET FY19- IT’S ALL ABOUT BHARAT

about 8 years ago

In one word – good. This is a good Budget. Maybe the first 20 minutes or so sounded more like an Election speech, getting ready for 2019 but from then on, it has been a well thought of, detailed Budget. We talk about rising inequality and inclusive growth – well, this is Budget is all about the farmer and rural India; trying to raise people on the lowest rung of the economic ladder to a higher rung and bringing in more to the ladder at least.

s it time for we, the middle class of India to come to the streets and demand loan waivers?

AFFORDABLE HOUSING – THE NEW BUZZ WORD IN REALTY

“Affordable Housing” is probably the second big thing in the Govt’s ‘to-do’ list after digitization. The Union Budget of FY18 was proof of that very fact.

The way Indian weddings are conducted; it is a world wide discussed occurrence and foreign tourists consider themselves very fortunate to be able to attend any such wedding.

When it comes to FIIs, Indian investors have a mind of their own. There is no mad herd mentality where investors just blindly seem to follow the FIIs.
