Compare PSU companies in the same sector with their...

Re: LCA News and Discussions, 22-Oct-2013

It is a good decision to have private industries take over LCA and make incremental improvements while PSU focuses on building some thing from ground up. This is typically the model in software outsourcing also. The risks of not able to make incremental upgrades in a existing product is far less tha...

Great, err, brilliant move. In 10 years, NAMO will help India build a huge stock pile of RMB and use it to win the currency war with China. So basically, India will do to China what Chine did to US.
