Going green in Goa!

IIPM BEST B-SCHOOL
So while such vegetarian societies organise events and conferences promoting vegetarianism, here’s a peek at what health specialists have to say. A vegan lifestyle promises riddance from obesity, blood pressure, cardiovascular diseases and even cancer. Testimony to the miracles of vegetarian diet are years of research that label this lifestyle as a cure to allergies, arthritis and even asthma. So while the KFC regulars rave about all that shoots-and-leaves lovers are missing out on, finally it’s the vegans who’ll have the last laugh!

An 18-year old M. K. Gandhi got inspired by ‘A Plea For Vegetarianism’ by Henry Salt in 1888 so much so that he became a strict vegan. And so, on the eve of Gandhi Jayanti, here’s a plea for all you flesh lovers – get over your carnal temptations!!

What are these ladies spending their incomes on?

IIPM BEST B-SCHOOL
Well, on an average, it seems working women (belonging to SEC A households) spend 24% of their earnings on enhancing the quality of their own life, 23% on savings/investments, 13% on household purchases, 13% on children, 9% on durables, 7% on insurance premiums, and around 5% on monthly expenses such as electricity, water bills and rent. In terms of self-expenditure or pampering themselves, Mumbai women led the list: they spend 34% of their salaries on grooming, shopping and entertainment. Kolkata women are next, with 24% of their salaries going on ‘pampering’, followed by Bangalore (23%), Delhi (22%), Hyderabad (20%) and Chennai (16%). And what constitutes self-expenditure? Basically ways and means to groom oneself: stuff like visits to beauty parlours and buying clothing, accessories and personal care products (gifts and presents, expenditure on mobile and entertainment are the other kinds of self-expenditure thrown up by the survey). City-wise, Delhi women put aside 31% of their income in savings & investments. In Mumbai, women save 26% of their incomes, in Kolkata and Bangalore 21%, Hyderabad 17% and Chennai 16%. Now take that!

It’s going to hurt us for sure


IIPM PUBLICATION
While Innova is competing against the Chevrolet Tavera, the Toyota Corolla faces a threat with the new Honda Civic launched in India recently. Is the Corolla ready for this challenge? Vikram expounds, “Cars have a life cycle of five to six years and a particular model may be half way through that cycle when manufacturers do a minor change and re-introduce the product. Before the Civic, there was a Corolla. Toyota brought out a new Corolla which ‘killed’ everyone worldwide. And now Honda is coming out with a ‘new’ Civic. It’s going to hurt us for sure.” Vikram admits that customers are looking for something new but one can’t keep changing models every year. He however assures that there will be a new Corolla soon and also asserts, “For me, the reputation of the brand, service and quality is just as important as is perhaps a new model.”
