This document provides an overview of the failed IT company Silverline Technologies Limited. It discusses Silverline's growth from 1997 to 2002, with rising sales, profits, and share prices. However, from 2002 onwards Silverline began to struggle, with falling sales, profits, share prices, and market capitalization. The document examines possible reasons for Silverline's downfall, including external factors like recession, as well as systematic manipulation of accounting policies, such as overstating assets and understating liabilities. It also notes issues such as related party transactions, high figures reported on financial statements, and numerous legal cases facing Silverline. The document concludes by discussing the importance of corporate governance and transparency to avoid such business failures.
The document examines the changing ownership structure of the Tata Group after JRD Tata's leadership. It discusses how the group moved from a loose federation of independent companies to a more consolidated structure under Ratan Tata. Key changes include increasing cross-holdings between companies, setting retirement ages for CEOs, promoting a unified brand, and exiting some businesses. This created a pyramidal structure with complex web of holdings to increase the Tata's control over affiliates despite having a minority ownership stake.
2008 insights into land acquisitions experiences kakaninet
This document discusses land acquisition experiences of private businesses in India. It analyzes case studies of both successful and unsuccessful land acquisitions. Key factors that lead to unsuccessful acquisitions included acquiring fertile land, lack of direct communication with local communities, and not providing acceptable rehabilitation packages. Successful acquisitions involved avoiding productive land, open communication with locals, equitable benefit sharing, and coordinated corporate communications. The document also presents a framework for determining which stakeholders require consent versus consultation based on their level of influence.
2008 emerging strategies in distance learning of management educationkakaninet
Distance learning programs in India have grown significantly in recent decades. Several universities now offer distance learning degrees up to the PhD level. XLRI Jamshedpur launched some early experiments with distance learning certificate programs in partnership with a telecom provider in 2002. While there was initial success in terms of reach and revenues, the programs faced challenges regarding quality and brand perception. XLRI is now focusing on developing high quality skill enhancement programs delivered through a blended model combining online and in-person components. International best practices suggest capping class sizes, using experienced faculty, and integrating online and in-person learning.

I am no God (i.e., perfect) and therefore there are bound to be ‘errors’ in estimating the true
worth of your answers (and hence, evaluation). But, I promise, evaluation will be unbiased.
Also, the ‘errors’ (if any) should cancel out over the length of the evaluation cycle.
