Increasingly as you study business In India, one truth stands out : land is not just a factor of production — it’s the silent tax on every growing business. If your model doesn’t build its own compounding engine, you’re not growing — you’re slowly being priced out of survival.

Indian Nifty50 index will deteriorate as a marker for public consumption data soon, with the plan to replace Britannia & Bharat Petroleum with Zomato and Jio Financial. One has limited trading history, other has substantial business presence. Only purpose is artificially inflate index’s P/E ratio.

The challenge with BlueSky for new users is that the prevalent conversations here feel human; disconnected from existing crazy, opinion bubbles on the existing older platforms people are used to. The shock value seems to translate badly to low engagement behaviour.

A few regional parties in India are on a race to drive the nation backwards with nonsensical cash freebies. Zero commits in manifesto to invest in edu, economic equity, training, jobs - just press releases on brainless freebies with 0 thought and outcomes expectation. These parties need to fail

Most graduates would be more effective if along with standard curriculum, we teach on improving learning and articulating outcomes, focus and problem statement descriptions. Critical thinking, learning and logic should be central to any undergraduate studies.
