who is on a continual basis associated with several types of major business ventures operating all over India!!
I am in touch with over 15000 Indians of every level from Chairmen and MDs to ordinary students and engineers, from every part of India on a day-to-day basis!!
Also, I wonder if you had ever heard of some Indian companies as MRF (almost 60 years old), Malayala Manorama (over 115 years old), the MM Group of Companies which are my family owned ventures?

Also, you would be advised to read the article which appeared in the Economic Times "of today" about Bangalore and Hyderabad being displaced by other centres in the IT outsourcing game. This already happened to those in the know a couple of years ago!!
So, maybe, being an analyst by profession, I may know just a little more than someone who toured India just a few days ago...
