Interesting article! Having known that people are not (made to)sticking the post of CFO, better employ somebody who has successful contributions and reasonable outcome! Such person will contribute, deliver good results, stick & will grow with the organisation. One should not wait & see mere qualification, but look at virtues.

Wow, according to you people who graduate from top universities should struggle to find job. In USA, why do new members go through extreme embarrassment to join fraternity? One explanation is that the person who go through great deal of trouble or pain to attain something value it more highly than the person who attain the same thing with minimal effort. Few (not all) companies exploit this psychological trick.

Sir, I am a 3rd yr Mechanical engineering student and loved your case study. Considering the present scenario of the great slowdown in the market and number of opportunities for freshers being hired up and the level of quality education being imparted to present day engineers in our country, entrepreneurship seems to be a silver lining. I always wanted to be an entrepreneur. My father owned C&F of plastic products. We were the main distributors in the southern India market.The sudden death of my father due to lung cancer made us wind up that business since my elder brother was not interested in it and i was in my tender age. Whereas i always wanted to take up that business and help my father. I have this feeling of starting and taking up the business line but my mother is frightened with my way of thing and taking risks since we have lost most of our saving in the medication of my father and my College. But i know i'll be an entrepreneur one day. Your article has been an inspiration to me and i thank you for it .

Hi Rohin, Did you see that Flipkart has shutdown the "TV / Audio / Video" and "Home appliances" segments on their site? Please shed more light on this development. Thanks

Hey Ravi,
I loved your study. I am an entrepreneur myself. My simple reason to turn towards entrepreneurship was that I felt happy being one, innovating, solving problems on ground. The more profound reason which led to explore dimensions available for starting up was massive chinese presence in almost all sectors of business. Take for instance the lights we use on the biggest Indian festival, diwali; chinese lights !
I was only a student in class 7, when I had made up my mind that I will do my bit to support my country. I started with engineering services, moved to manufacturing and designing. Today, we work on cutting edge technologies such as Mechatronics, AI, Machine learning, Robotics, Industrial Automation, Complete HT and LT electrical equipment manufacturing and services. Will shortly diversify to power and civil equipment manufacturing as well.
Lets do for our country, rather than just keep sitting on our thoughts. Entrepreneurship is a basic necessity for India. How otherwise do we plan to keep up in the race !!
