Thriving on challenges….

While Thriving on challenges...analysts are quite impressed with Reliance’s stellar performance on a consistent basis, they are quite cautiously optimistic about the sustainability of the company’s performance. States Raj Gandhi, “Reliance is undertaking too many projects at the same time. The execution of these projects may become a headache for Reliance in the long term. And with Reliance venturing into myriad businesses, they also give rise to newer challenges. States Anshukant Taneja, Analyst, Standard & Poor’s (which rates RIL as stable with respect to its financial obligations, but susceptible to changing economic conditions), “The ratings remain constrained by RIL’s exposure to highly cyclical industries, large capital commitments in refining & petrochemicals business and uncertainty in developing its reportedly large gas reserves.

Add Mukesh Ambanito that the myriad investment plans in new capital intensive ventures like retail, SEZs (where the company is lining up investments of around Rs.400 billion)and life sciences. Take the instance of retail, where the company has committed investments of Rs.250 billion and is now expanding to other retail formats like consumer durables (Reliance Digital), FMCG, healthcare & apparel. Bijay Sahoo; President & Chief People Officer of Reliance Retail, mentions while speaking exclusively to B&E on how they plan to handle the emerging situation in the sector, “Our plan is to build the supply side of the talent. We have done the need analysis and are working on the development plan; in this country we have a lot of raw talent and we need to transform that talent... the industry has limited availability...”

A remarkable turnaround by the behemoths


IIPM PUBLICATION

OverflowingIndian Oil weed, shrubs and an eerie silence greet you as yousaunter across the ruins. Stray cattle walk here and there; moss clings from a cement structure that was once a wash room. Seventy three year old Ram Naresh Jha whispers philosophically, “ Once upon a time; you had the most amazing parties here”. Jha retired as a kind of caretaker many years ago from Heavy Engineering Corporation whose sprawling factory cum campus dominated Ranchi (capital of Jharkhand) till the late 1970s. HEC was one of the temples of modern India that Jawaharlal Nehru hadso eloquently dreamt and talked about. Now, HEC is a ghost town, the factories long since closed, the clubs and sports grounds desolate and crumbling houses of managers and workers testimony of a dream that failed. Across India, you will find many such dead public sector companies; some gone for good and many surviving on life support. Juxtapose this with frequent laments from free market fundamentalists that India’s biggest bane has been the existence and sustenance of public sector units (PSUs) and you might well be tempted to think that the glory days of Indian PSUs are well and truly over.

It’s just fair and lovely!


IIPM MANAGEMENT INSTITUTE

Sumeet Budhraja, Sumeet BudhrajaAnalyst at Edelweiss Securities, explains the strategy behind these investments: “Maximum retail presence means penetrating in newer areas; and for this fiscal year, almost all companies have invested the maximum amount in having a wider presence in both urban and rural markets.” KPMG claims that the rural market accounts for almost 56% of the total FMCG demand in India. Hence, the leader in the segment – ITC – rules the roost with a robust rural presence in 31,000 villages. “Rural presence has always been a key criteria for us...” shared ITC with Planman Media, “But definitely, this year we have strengthened our branded foods business!” And the reason could well be the fact that the Indian food market is expected to reach an electrifying Rs.1.35 trillion by 2015.

Indians clearly seem to be not only wishing to feed themselves well, but also seem intent on beautifying themselves to no ends! Oh well, doesn’t everybody want to do that?!

The Palestinian refugees continue to suffer both at the hands of Israel as well the Lebanese army

Late The Palestinian refugees continue to suffer both at the hands of Israel as well the Lebanese armyRafik Hariri used to say, “In Lebanon, believe nothing of what you are told and only half of what you see!" Well! Never did his words sound truer than it sounds now as the Lebanese army attacks the Fatah al-Islam citadels in Nahr-al-Bared refugee camp (pitched after the Israel-Arab war of 1947, the predominantly Sunni camp houses more than 40,000 Palestinians). The camp is operated by Lebanese groups and is predominantly Sunni at Tripoli in Northern Lebanon. The continuous shelling, on the pretext of 'smoking out terrorists' has had a devastating impact on the Palestinian inhabitants of the refugee camp (more than 20,000 refugees have been forced to leave the camp seek refuge in the neighbouring camp at Bedawi).

Racing against time

Putin’s anti-media campaign is out of tune and can backfire...

Russia’s Putin’s anti-media campaign is out of tune and can backfire...meteoric rise in the past one decade under the aegis of the charismatic President Vladimir Putin not withstanding, is strangulation of the domestic media vindicates that even though economically Russia is much better off today, the essence of democracy has still a long way to go. At a time when the Russian Union of Journalists (RUJ) are going to host the 2007 World Congress of the International Federation of Journalists, the government’s order to RUJ to vacate space for state-run satellite radio doesn’t augur well for the Russian Society. Russian News Service (RNS) is a typical example of legitimating censorship. The strict RNS instruction is simple, the news to be aired should be more of good news, and there is no need to broadcast bad news. Surprisingly, RNS has also made a blacklist of journalists who are not allowed to broadcast any news. No wonder if the government’s present moves of restricting media policies continue unabated, then it doesn’t portend a rosy picture for the journalists in the coming times, who have always been ambiguous and uncertain over the end of censorship. However, recent incidents of eight journalists’ resignation and the formation of collective protest against this censorship issue has raised a sign of hope for all.

It is strange that one of the most popular presidents of Russia of all the times, and a man known for his strong convictions and iron-hand rule, who single handedly transformed Russia into a modern, rich and influential one, should be so wary about the media. He should realize that every time the world has been against him and his policies, the common Russians have always rallied behind him. But if he forces to gag the media, then it might just backfire.
