Microsoft sizes up!Avoiding any contingency, Microsoft India has decided to adopt the same low cost mantra to launch its first ever complete PC in India. After being the unquestioned leader in soft ware space, Microsoft has now decided to enter hardware arena & has chosen India for its hardware debut.

Interestingly, Microsoft calls its initiative as “Unlimited Potential for India” & plans to create affordable, accessible & relevant technological solutions for Indian masses. Well, at first this low cost computer strategy from Microsoft looks to be yet another business initiative which is being undertaken to further strengthen the position of Microsoft in the Indian market.

“If you have achieved something today, you want to do better tomorrow”

The numbers do speak in favour of the company, as the results for the year ended March 2007 show. Income from operations grew by a huge 75% yoy to reach Rs.3.9 billion. PAT increased by nearly 64% & stood at Rs.792.5 million. While SREI has achieved tremendous growth in the asset book, revenues & profits over the past three years, it has not compromised on asset quality. Stringent provisioning norms have enabled SREI to keep its Non Performing Assets (NPAs) at near zero level. The company not only boasts of a strong national footprint with 46 branches across the country, but has also established global presence in Russia & Germany & holds the record of being the first Indian infrastructure financing company to list on LSE. The company plans a size of Rs.130-150 billion in the next few years.

The new poster economy

From market development to encouragement of scientific ROMANIA& technological research, all prospective issues are targeted at & are experiencing radical reforms. Romania enjoys its development predominantly because of its fiscal and trade policies & has emerged as one of the most viable place for international trade. The reforms have boosted its GDP (PPP) per capita to $9100 & an employment rate to 92.1%.

It immensely benefits from the size of the market, robust manufacturing sector & ever increasing role of private sector. The developmental model had underpinned the development of less developed states & prevented uprising of regional disparities. All of this makes Romanian growth story, a recommend reading in the global development literature in times to come.

That elusive quest

With so much information overload on a handful of economies, That elusive questany discerning observer gets a feeling that the world has all of a sudden emptied out all other economies that could not make it to that select list. So much so that even when one search for any worthy information on other economies, they might find it only after scrolling to the twentieth page of any respectable search engine. Despite the fact that today the media, academia, investors & all other multilateral institutions of all hues & at all levels are all singularly focused on select nations – something corroborated by how much higher their attention is compared to those of other economies – the future belongs to today’s ambitious economies. It is they who are endowed with the winning ideas, human capital, policy innovations & investor patronage necessary to amend the rules of the global game.

Losing bagawali forever!

“Coca Cola welcomes you to Kala Dera” – no such banner greeted us but yes, the pathetic sight that greeted us gave rise to doubts about Coca Cola’s concern over groundwater-level depletion. Much as Coca Cola has helped locals as Dr. Ahuja (a doctor by profession and a regular visitor to Kala Dera who accompanied us throughout our visit) opined, “Development in infrastructure coupled with setting up of new industries has been a real boon for the people.” Accepted that the MNC has given means of livelihood to many, but certain discrepancies also creep in. On questioning, the likes of Krishna Murari, Suraj Kant Patwa (both grocery store owners), Govind Narayan Kumawat (a tailor), they reverted back with discontentment, “It’s a bad company. They bribe the officials and so it must be shut down...” Someone from amongst them further added, “Bagawali (a nearby river) has dried up. The water that we used to get at 70-feet below ground level is now difficult to get even at 100-feet today.” We were taken aback at the disclosure for sure! The owner of a medical hall also commented, “Water table is declining every year by 15-20 feet”. We were stunned – how could just one plant be the cause of drying up of a river?
