IT’S THE FINNISH GIANT, AFTER ALL!

Philippine’s oldest telecom operator – Eastern Telecommunications Philippines Inc. (ETPI) has decided to finally upgrade its current existing fixed-network infrastructure. ETPI has roped in Nokia’s services for the same. The generic task for the Finnish giant will actually be the installation of a Next-Generation Core in the telecom operator and make it operational. Yes, indeed a tough modernisation task for any company, but are we forgetting that it’s the $85 billion company who’s been handed over the challenge?

Hero Honda's Market Capitalization

Hero Honda’s market capitalization is now a whopping Rs.188 billion. One of the biggest weapons up the family’s sleeves has been their uncompromising capability to innovate and change with market dynamics. Headed by the visionary Brij Mohanlal Munjal, the Hero group has diversified into a number of businesses. In order to reduce dependence on a particular sector, the group is now into ITES (Hero Mindmine), finance, steel rolling and components. Now, in the relatively younger hands of Pawan and Pankaj Munjal, the Munjal family is undoubtedly a part of the business clan that have not only survived the ruthless brunt of intense foreign competition in the post liberalising period, but have beaten them hands down. One of the finest examples in our list of post-1991 survivors – and spectacular leaders – the Hero group, for the want of a better term, has redefined what heroes are really made of!

THE YUMMY YUM RINGING A ‘BELL’!

After the reining success of Pizza Hut and Kentucky Fried Chicken in India, ‘Yum! Restaurant’, the famous American fast-food chain is about to launch a Mexican fastfood chain named ‘Taco Bell’ in the country. This $24 billion company is first planning to open its stores in Hyderabad, Delhi, Bangalore, Agra and Mumbai. After managing 6,500 different stores around the world, now they are all geared up to leave a Mexican taste in the Indian’s mouth. But interestingly, there is no Kolkata and Chennai in their ‘hot’ list. At the moment, the strategy remains to focus on the above-mentioned cities for the third largest brand from the Yum! International kitty, but it seems that later on they will spread their wings in the other parts of India too. So far, the performance of both Pizza Hut and KFC in India has been quite good, but only time will decide how much will this Mexican spice lure the Indian consumers.
