CEOs are measured on outcomes and what the company has achieved under their leadership. Subjectively saying that a company has done well or that a CEO has performed well has no meaning unless it is backed by metrics that demonstrate what has been achieved. Even more important here is the value addition that the CEO has been able to achieve and demonstrate.
The $143 billion Indian IT industry is currently grappling with an issue of truly epic proportions that promises to demolish its fundamental leverage. This is an industry that has for long been considered India’s sunrise industry and a huge foreign exchange earner. But, all that is set to change.
Union finance minister Arun Jaitley’s budget for the year 2017-18 has evoked diverse reactions from politicians, industry leaders, experts, academia and social media. Good for some, not so good for others but one sector which has not seen much is the Higher Education Sector. Did the Government miss out on Higher Education especially beyond the government colleges?
The results are out!
Highlights as per the report:
Indian Institute of Foreign Trade (IIFT) emerged as the winner of the National Final of CFA Institute Research Challenge in India along with IIM Bangalore and NMIMS Mumbai. The event was held in Mumbai on Saturday, 4th February 2017.
Budget 2017 announced by the Finance Minister Arun Jaitley is very comprehensive given the fact that it impacts both lower and upper strata of the society to a very large extent– reducing the individual tax rate from 10% to 5% for the lower slab, reducing the tax rate from 30% to 25% for MSMEs having a turnover up to Rs.50 Crores; imposing a surcharge of 10% on individual incomes in the range of Rs.50 lacs to Rs.1 Crore are the breakthrough proposals announced. Relaxation in the promoters’ holding limit for carry forwards of losses and the 3 –year tax holiday provided to start-ups will further boost the Prime Minister’s “Start Up India” campaign. For the educational sector, the FM announced online education portal- “Swayam”, which offers virtual education for 350 online courses, which provides more thrust to the government’s Digital India movement.
