"The interviewees chosen in India Inc. represent an interesting cross-section of today's Indian business leaders, beyond the largest industrialists.

"The subjects of India Inc are among those who have most successfully ridden this tide of liberalization." --The Financial Times, January 2009
"For readers who want a light introduction to these personalities, India Inc provides an easy read with occasional vignettes." --The Financial Times, January 2009
An insightful and thought-provoking look at some of the world's top entrepreneurs and how they got there. A must-read for any aspiring Dragon or business person wanting to understand the minds behind the greatest business expansion of our world today." --James Caan,author of Dragon's Den

Revealing minibiographies of 10 highly successful Indian entrepreneurs,
This review is from: India Inc.: How India's Top Ten Entrepreneurs are Winning Globally (Hardcover)
An old Hindi proverb says, "Mare bina swarg nahi milta." Never have truer words been spoken. In fact, this adage could be the mantra of all 10 visionary, gutsy entrepreneurs profiled in Vikas Pota's book about celebrated corporate leaders in India. Pota's treatise offers intriguing insights into the backgrounds, beliefs, values and attitudes of these highly prosperous business leaders. While Pota's access to such renowned members of India's commercial sphere is impressive, his minibiographies do not contain much practical advice on how to emulate these stars or how to establish an enterprise in India, and the stories overindulge in figures and statistics, which hinder reading. However, getAbstract recommends this book to global managers seeking a solid overview of India's business environment and to those looking for inspiration to launch a start-up anywhere in the world. And that old Hindi proverb? "Without death, there can be no heaven": Great things can only be achieved through great effort.

This review is from: India Inc.: How India's Top Ten Entrepreneurs are Winning Globally (Hardcover)
8 different Industries, 10 Top Executives; individually they are worth over millions, jointly their companies are over $105b in market capitalisation, thus making them bigger than likes of eBay, Amazon, Yahoo, Vodafone, Dell & BT.Most of them are still relatively unknown heroes in overseas world and though their names are not as established as Bill Gates, Steve Jobs or Richard Branson yet, India Inc CEOs are not far behind. Vikas Pota has done a sterling job in bringing out the real story of these giants to the world and has used relatively straight forward but powerful language to highlight the ups and downs of their lives and why they all deserve a place in the history of top people who changed the 21st Century. No matter which country you are from, what religion you belong, if you need to understand the great minds that have helped shape the India of today and set the path for tomorrow, this is a must-read. Highly recommended ! @mackarlekar, CEO & Founder [...]
