@timesofindia Tata Sons is no Berkshire Hathaway & @tatatrusts is no @gatesfoundation. This speaks about state of the market for corporate control in India. Minority shareholders and @LICIndiaForever are the usual abettors. Private sector institutional shareholders should be more active voters

@CNBCTV18Live @_RituSingh HDFC group transition is complete now. Fox (HDFC parent) guarding the henhouse (the bank) is their most comfortable position.

Remember, how abruptly, they stepped down from IL&FS (9.02% shareholding) board without any reason, a year before the crisis.

@JhaSanjay Every regulator should publish the HHI for the sector under their supervision. How would @DGCAIndia explain HHI of 0.49??

Live and Let Live

Be nice
Be retaliatory
Be forgiving
Be clear

Don't be envious
Don't be the first to deflect
Don't stop reciprocating
Don't be too clever

[Naveen Manivannan @NaveenManivanan]

TIT FOR TAT's robust success is its combination of being nice, retaliatory, forgiving, and clear.
Niceness prevents unnecessary trouble.
Retaliation discourages persisting defection.
Forgiveness restores mutual cooperation.
Clarity makes it intelligible to others

The Constructive pecularities of Buffett and the Berkshire System
Good Luck
The weirdly intense, contagiuos devotion of others

heavy freight was carried by interactions of constructive pecularities and weird devotion

@arjunpacha This is a dealer-insurance co nexus, and has nothing to do with the manufacturer. Upon total loss, IDV is paid out. Vehicle is sold to unsuspecting buyer. Losers - reinsurance co and unsuspecting buyer of the damaged vehicle. Winners - insurance company, car dealer. (2/n)

[Naveen Manivannan @NaveenManivanan]

@arjunpacha The modus operandi of this insurance scam: under a climate-induced catastrophe, reinsurance would cover much of the claims; for administrative and operational efficiency, categorizing most the claims under this cause, would save a lot of unwanted labour and parts expenses. (1/n)

[Naveen Manivannan @NaveenManivanan]

Sources of resources funding total expendinture - Ordinary Working exp and capital expenditure. With traffic receipts being flat, increased expenditure is funded by budget support and EBR
