Full marks to NITI Aayog's vice-chairman Rajiv Kumar for getting it right with his company-ownership comment. But Maruti-JLR example is not the full story.
Maruti Suzuki has one robot for every four factory workers. Firms like Eicher and Bajaj also use robots in a quest for efficiency and cost-cutting. About 100 mln Indians enter the workforce every month. Has India entered the manufacturing race too late? We ask experts Manish Sabharwal, Amitabh Kant, R.C. Bhargava.
Despite growing passenger volume, 11 out of 14 carriers reported losses in 2023-24. IndiGo recorded profit of Rs 8,167 crore, which reduced to Rs 7.253 crore in 2024-25.
Dubai airshow crash & pilot death have rekindled concerns over pilot safety, and need for smarter automated systems that can step in when G-forces, temporary loss of consciousness hit the pilot.
None of Pakistan’s PMs has lasted 5 years. That the current PM has given Asim Munir 5 years shows that of all military dictatorships history has seen, Pakistan’s is most creative.
“everything thing cannot be viewed as profit or loss”.The question here to ask each company that operated or owned by our people – Can you provide world class products to Indians at cost effective price. I know the answer is no.this can be possible only when the govt.the companies and offcourse ourselves have to adopt the people centric approach.
Maruti – whoever owns it – has been a wonderful, successful, Indian story. It started out when China was entering its high growth phase. Had chemistry between India and Japan been strong, if we could have created a more hospitable landscape for large foreign investment, a lot of it meant for exports, created a few Shenzhens of our own, the economic and strategic landscape of Asia would have been more evenly balanced between India and China. 2. If JLR has been a success, Corus was a disaster. One has no swadeshi dogmas, but at this stage of India’s development, our industrialists – which is something Reliance has done – should be making most of their investments at home, not abroad.
If JLR is based or produced in India, its sales would collapse. The premium pricing and luxury brand has everything to do with being a british made/manufacture company, even if the ultimate owner is a shabby Indian. This is the hard reality. For example, if mercedes were made in china rather than germany, how much would it be able to charge for a car?

wrong question, what ever is better to your wallet is the right answer.
