Six Sixes of India Inc.


IIPM Admission Detail

Strange visitors from the same nation!

Amidst the scare, amidst the fear, there have been a few superheroes with their superacts that made 2008 worth remembering for India Inc. steven philip warner gives an account of what and who went right...

What a year bygone, was 2008! During the year bygone, we stood ‘not-so-mute’ spectators to the Sensex resonating at 21,000-plus (in January) and then crashing to levels seen three long years back at sub-8000 points, eroding close to a pythonic Rs.70 trillion in the process (as on December 16, 2008). During the year bygone, we saw, and for the first time ever, an Indian donning the title hat of ‘the world’s richest man’, and shortly thereafter, we mourned the loss of a mighty Rs.7 trillion by just the four richest of Indian tycoons (and that includes the aforementioned ‘world’s richest man’)! Such has been the year, when, almost out of compulsion, we had inculcated the habit of waiting for a bomb to be dropped on our heads, after every glorious fest. In this chessboard of a year, there have been goods, and India luckily, has stood witness to some superhero acts too (we call them the ‘Six Sixes of India Inc.’). Yes, they emerged at regular intervals, from the same tribe of corporate India, making memories not ‘all that pungent’ for India Inc. to remember the year 2008 as the year that ‘was’!

And for once, these ‘six’ superheroes (allow us to call them Supermen), proved thumpingly that this tribe had found no sadistic reason to degenerate from within… Pray, allow us to prove their superacts. Hyman Rickover once famously quoted, ‘Great minds discuss ideas, average minds discuss events and small minds discuss people;’ immodestly accepting our average-minded smallness today, allow us to discuss these supermen and the events that makes us repeat the first statement, in a more realistic fashion: ‘What a ‘great’ year bygone, was 2008!’
