Before I begin this post, this is my mantra since the last few years when I have been exposed to this: I have a fondness for IP creation or Intellectual Property creation and this blog probably stands testimony to that fact! Which better place than to study IPR law from India’s topmost institute - National law school of India University (NLSIU).
I have written about this earlier too: http://ecofin.wordpress.com/2007/05/17/captive-product-units/ Read the rest of this entry »

What are the important factors one needs to consider before one begins to blog:
1. First, get over this obsession of Google adsense. 99/100 bloggers I meet first think of making a quick buck on adsense rather than focus on quality of their blogs and its relevance towards the topic(s) chosen! This is really very disturbing statistics. Read the rest of this entry »

Looking forward to reading the Wall Street Journal from tomorrow! In addition, I will be able to compare the two competitors - Eco Times and Mint. I believe Mint already has a healthy subscription base of over 100000+ readers.
Here’s wishing good luck to Mint to take on Eco Times - after all - the newspaper industry is largely dominated by Eco Times and Times of India as market leaders enjoying almost a Monopoly status. New entrants like Mint should be able to displace them from this Monopoly status - which is ultimately good for us - the end readers and consumers!

Its a 130-year old industry. We have spent our childhood watching those trapeze artists and animals perform stunts to packed crowds. I have personally been to so many of those in my childhood with my parents. Shahrukh Khan once starred in a famous Circus teleserial during the beginning of his career.
The decline of this industry is apparent: In 2002, the Indian circus federation had 22 members and today has about 10 or 15 of them.
This erstwhile and magnificant/graceful business is almost shutting shop today. Read the rest of this entry »

One of the biggest issues one needs to factor in is to make all payments to the seller in plain cheque. That should be the right logical approach. This is easy on first sales where you buy a property directly from a reputed builder where you make payments by cheque and in instalments.
Second sales are invariably having this complication where cheque payments may not be accepted in entirety (its different if you buy directly from a builder as they accept money only in cheque) and this is where I felt there was a lacuna of information and therefore tried to fill in this gap with below due diligence/analysis.
Some of the principles used in Real Estate investing are highlighted below. These are from my own experiences in dealing with this tricky (and murky) world of business. Read the rest of this entry »

This is interesting. Max Mosley agrees that justice has been done in the Ferrari F1 spying controversy.
