The Economic Survey 2008-09 tabled in the Parliament, on Thursday, the 2nd July, 2009, by the Finance Minister Pranab Mukherjee, has made many ambitious and bold recommendations on many sectors of the economy. Paying heed to long standing demand of opening retail sector to foreign capital (FDI), the Survey has sought to allow FDI in retailing ( multi-brand, front-end ), beginning with the food segment.

As you may know, the DH and I are expecting a “Baby Yum” in mid July and so have been doing all sorts of things to prepare for her, including attending childbirth classes. I had always imagined that these classes would be cuddly events involving yoga mats and back massages and spouses, so I was a little disappointed with the rather clinical, hospital-themed lectures we ended up attending. I also found myself more than a little hungry at the first one as it took place directly after the DH got home from work during our typical dinner hour

All retailers, including those who were initially reluctant to allow rush of foreign capital in the sector, have been asking for full opening retail sector to foreign investment in India. The main reasons for such an unequivocal demand stems from the realisation that (a) while retail requires heavy investment for expansion, there is hardly any local capital left in the capital markets as a consequence of global financial meltdown, and (b) efficient management of multi-brand, multi-product, multi location retail, especially in the area of back-end operations, require heavy dose of technology, which over the years has been developed and perfected by foreign players.

Samsung India Electronics Limited, the consumer electronics giant, opened a new channel for sales, when it launched its first ‘IT brandshop’ in Hyderabad on Wednesday.

Ladies Special through Lahaul – Spiti 
“Never take nervous ladies along.” Cautioned one fellow blogger after his trip to Kalpa-Tabo-Kaza but destiny had some other thoughts for my trip. I was chosen by the Gods to take four fearful and reluctant ladies of different age group on a roller coaster thrill ride passing through remotest and most sparsely populated Lahaul & Spiti valleys (most of people around me don’t even know but these are two different river valleys linked together by 4500 metre Kunzum pass) covering Delhi-Shimla – Narkanda- Recong Peo – Tabo – Kaza – Lossar – Kunzum La – Rohtang La – Manali – Chindi in Seven-Nights Eight-Days flat.

Global financial meltdown resulting in collapse of capital markets had its impact on India’s HNWIs (high networth individuals or dollar millionaires), as their number dwindled by 39,000 (or 31.6 per cent) from 123,000 (2008) compared to 84,000 in the previous year (2007). This is the first drop recorded for India in the past seven years. An HNWI is defined as the one who owns net assets of at least $1 million, excluding his/her primary residence and consumables

Subhiksha saga gets murkier every day, even as R Subrahmanyam promoted, Chennai-based discount retailer, struggles hard to obtain financial bailout package from its lenders – a consortium of 12 bankers- to get back on its feet. Until recently, while the top two equity stake holders of the company (promoters: 59 per cent, and I-Venture: 23 per cent) were having a public spat on who effectively controlled the company as well as on the manner in which the company was operated by its managing director, it is now the turn of Zash Investments- an Azim Premji promoted private equity company– which has jumped into the fray with serving of legal notices on all past and present directors of the company, charging them with dereliction in performance of their duties
