IT IS HIGH TIME TO THINK OF A "FUEL PRICE STABILIZATION FUND" IN INDIA

  IT IS HIGH TIME TO THINK OF A " FUEL PRICE STABILIZATION FUND" IN INDIA   Today, on October 30, 2021; the Petrol Price has reached at Mumbai almost Rs 115/- per litre, at Bhopal Rs 118/-per litre, at Bangalore Rs 113/-per litre, at Delhi Rs 109/ per litre and at Hyderabad Rs. 113/- per litre, few paise + or - (plus or minus). Even in Ganganagar District of Rajasthan the Petrol Price has reached Rs. 121/- per litre.  The Diesel prices have also reached the close vicinity. The Price details of today are published in the articles of media cited below. Definitely these are sky rocketing fuel prices.  Let us accept the realities as without abusing anyone in bad language who says about high prices of Petrol and Diesel. It is always prudent to find a solution to the problem and not to suppress the problem by shouting or applying any force. Now as on 30th October 2021, the Brent Crude oil price is USD 84 per barrel approximately and this is the situation. If th...

"ALITALIA" CHANGES TO "ITA" (NATIONALIZED TO NATIONALIZED ) EFFECTIVE OCTOBER 15, 2021

  "ALITALIA" CHANGES TO "ITA" (NATIONALIZED TO NATIONALIZED ) EFFECTIVE OCTOBER 15, 2021 This is a story comparable to AIR INDIA ( even Alitalia was worst than Air India to say ). A new beginning in the World, very interesting.  Alitalia, the National Carrier of Italy is changing to a new name ITA by launch of a New Nationalized Company named "Italia Trasporto Aereo (ITA)", which is taking over the Alitalia effective from October 15, 2021.  Do we have scope for a learning here and take clue for us in India in National Interest ? Italy, a developed country, did not want to lose its National Carrier. Under pressure from EU Regulators and European Union, they formed ITA a new Nationalized Company and are transferring Alitalia to ITA from today, the October 15, 2021. Later Alitalia Brand will be transferred to ITA or not is a question mark right now, however ITA will use all Operational Infrastructure, Systems and even Flight Codes of Alitalia, the operational...

  THE MYTH OF SUNK COSTS : THE MANAGERS OF PRIVATISATION MUST BE CURED OF THE DISEASE OF "WRONG NOTION OF SUNK COSTS " OTHERWISE THEY WILL RECOMMEND BY THEIR DATA  EVEN FOR SALE OF THE WHOLE NATION..... I am really quite pained to see the way the information and data that are being presented for Privatization of National Assets in India; it is really difficult to digest as a Professional…. The Government Managers who are handling "Privatization", first have to be cured of the Disease of "Wrong Notion of Sunk Costs". Otherwise; they are bent upon doing Disasters for the National Assets and if accepted this way; one day they can even recommend for the sale of the Whole Nation… The "Sunk Costs" have to be always compared with "Utilities Derived " for the reference period ( may be material, may be non-material, however, if Sunk Costs have to be considered it has to be done after valuating it ( Utilities Derived ) in some way to make appropr...

Eat on the Floor or borrow an utensil from somebody ..... Will the 2-AIR INDIA ONEs bought at a Price of Rs. 8000/- Crores go to TATA or stay ? Let it also go to Tata why not ? Every time when ...
