Recession Times -World of Opportunities @ India

India with an estimated population of 1,129,866,154 approximately, has a pool of opportunities for business which benefit the society and they can be put under the category of Social Enterpreneurship. Following are the 3 areas which I can surely vouch for

1. Infrastructure
2. Health Care
3. Education

The above three are the sectors which seasoned professionals have been talking for more than a decade. For me, we need to look at them in different ways. Some of the business propositions which truly make difference and are beginning for the new era are

1. Under the infrastructure, Maytas’s Hyderabad Metro Project is truly a win-win in many ways. Government of Andhra Pradesh (GoAP) has awarded the Concession for undertaking the development of the 71.16kms of fully elevated Hyderabad Metro Rail (MRTS) Project on Design, Build, Finance, Operate and Transfer (the "DBFOT") basis to our Consortium comprising Nava Bharat Ventures Limited, Maytas Infra Limited, Italian-Thai Development Public Company Limited and Infrastructure Leasing & Financial Services Limited (“NMII Consortium”). Maytas promised to pay an estimated sum of Rs 1000 Crore per annum to the GoAP for over 30 years in return for the awarded project. Imagine the amount revenues that the GOI can generate by awarding such projects across the country and building infrastructure in parallel.
2. In the health care domain, Apollo Reach Hospitals will offer advanced Speciality care in semi-urban and rural areas, complementing existing clinical facilities and ensuring that people in these areas get access to high-end clinical care that would otherwise have never been within their reach.
3. In the education domain, I have seen couple of my friends struggling for an admission with some of the best schools in the city. The gap between some of the best schools in the city and other private schools is wide. Both in terms of the quality of education they impart as well as the fee they charge per annum. There isn’t organized schooling at an affordable cost. While this remains a gap before a new entrant comes into the foray, another area of opportunity which I have come across this morning in the news is MindLogicx’s IntelliExam fool proof concept where they have signed an MOU with Anna University.
