Is MBA Worth The Perceived Value?

“After passing MBBS or B.Tech, students get the tag of a Doctor or an Engineer but you get none. You won’t be called a manager just after passing out of a B-School.

After successfully completing the Vth term and on verge of being convocated, I have got a fair idea now what all those words meant.

Start-Ups In India - Growing Or Making Customers Feel Cheated

I am a start-up enthusiast. I really feel India is growing with a combination of young energetic mind and of course Angel or Seed Funding. I always tried to get more knowledge of what and how start-ups are working? How they are providing the services and on what basis actually they are getting Funding and Business Revenue?
