Chansoria Entrepreneur is one who innovates, organizes, manages and assumes the risk of an enterprise and acts as a catalytic agent in growth process.

Swami Vivekananda had once remarked “There is no change for the welfare of the world unless te condition of women is improved, is it possible for a bird to fly on one wing.” Women have innate flair for entrepreneruship. They are natural organizers and relationship builders. They can perform all the functions of an able entrepreneur in an efficient manner as their male counterpart, still they constitute less than 12% of self employed workforce in India, which is very less as compared to developed nations. This calls for concerted efforts to promote their role in entrepreneurial activities so that they can contribute to the growth process of te nation. Growth of women entrepreneur can go a long way in bridging the gap in gender inequalities in our country.

Gopinandhan Pillai India had reached a turning point in its long and arduous struggle for socio-economic development. In the 21st century India continues to live in villages.

The approach to successive five year plans envisages ‘growth, equity, social justice, self-reliance, improved efficiency and productivity as its guiding principles.

Gopalsamy Drucker analysed management into fundamental yet practical topics such as what is management, what is a business, how it is organized and managed etc., to recall some of his gems, “Management means the substitution of thought for brawn, knowledge for blind faith and cooperation for force,” “Management is the catalyst which makes possible economic and social development in freedom and dignity. Its legitimacy rests on a code of responsibility and accountability.” When we want to know the tasks of management, these are : fulfilling the institution’s specific purpose, making work productive and the worker achieving and managing social impact and social responsibilities. In such a context, we may be keen to know what is meant by the term “managing corporate affairs”, which is the title of the book. In practice this could be explained as the process aimed at accomplishing organizational objectives by (1) effectively coordinating the procurement, allocation and utilization of the human, financial, intellectual, and physical resources of the organization and (2) maintaining the organization in a state of satisfactory, dynamic equilibrium within the environment, that is, the corporate strategies and operational plans are responsive to the demands and constraints embedded in the economic, political, legal, cultural, political and competitive environment. “Managing corporate affairs : A Directors’ handbook” therefore, keeping the knowledge and skill requirements of directors in general, covers all the key areas of corporate management, namely different topics related to general management, finance, production, marketing, human resources, business knowledge and knowledge management, company law and corporate governance in addition to Industrial/business policy. The Board being the principal organ of the company, the management of the affairs of the company is vested in the Board. However, the powers are to be exercised in compliance with the provisions of Company law and Corporate Governance. The term “Corporate governance” according to the Cadbury committee means it is the system by which companies are directed and controlled.” That being the position, how do we comply with the legal and regulatory provisions ? What is the stewardship role of the directors? What exactly is the desirable role of non-executive/independent directors? Why is corporate governance important? How is corporate governance regulated in India? Why are independent directors important for good governance? The answers to these questions and also to other possible questions which one may reasonably pose in respect of other disciplines of management, the readers would find answers in the book. A look at the preface and the contents section would reveal that the publication is not only fit for serving the multifarious needs of Company directors bu it is also very useful for other sections as well, namely for courses like MBA, M.Com., MFA, MFC, PGDBA, PGDBM, PGDFM, CFA etc. ..more  Price: Rs. 180.00  Buy Now Business Studies Upendra Kaushik ,  Smita Bhatnagar Contents : Preface, 1.

Khandela In the age of globalization every thing is being done only for development. In actuality development is a means and not the end. It is only the tool by which the government tries or should try to eradicate poverty, inequality, suppression and exploitation. Since presently we have our rate of growth more than 9 per cent per annum, foreign exchange reserve more than 200 billion dollars, Mumbai Stock Exchange Sensex more than 14000 points, rate of growth of exports more than 30%, Indian big companies are taking over M.N.Cs. many times larger than themselves, foreign investors are really crazy to invest in India and we feel ‘proud’ of producing largest number of billionaires every year. On the other side, we are still struggling with our own problems of poverty, unemployment, illiteracy, economic and social inequalities, shortage of essential services like electricity, drinking water, sanitation etc. Majority of the population is not getting bare minimum requirements of food, shelter and health care. It shows that the development, which in one way looks like reality, is on the other way like a myth. The question which, very obviously arises, is as to what is the actuality. In the book “Economic Development: Myth and Reality” the author has tried to analyze the things with maximum level of positivity and factuality. In the book subjects like illusion of development, developmental efforts and general deprivation, hard realities of becoming developed country, global cooperation in poverty eradication, water as the resource for development and corruption and side effects of developments have been discussed, in detail. This book will be useful for entrepreneurs, traders, economic analysts, policy makers, planners and all the persons concerned with the subject. ..more  Price: Rs. 400.00  Buy Now Rural Women and Their Quality of Life S. Bhattacharjee There is no absolute standard of living that is universally accepted although the people living in western capitalist societies are often considered to enjoy a higher quality of life. “Quality of life”, however, varies in time, space and culture. What is better in one culture may not be so in another. People’s desires, expectations in material and economic life as well as preceptions of good life vary across cultures. Good health, wealth, high political power and education may not always be the only criteria for a better “quality of life”. Prevailing social norms, cultural ideologies, and personal values may also influence an individual’s “quality of life”. This book, “Rural Women and their Quality of Life” is a comprehensive and most valuable document on the subject. An empirical investigation into the life-situations of rural women belonging to the different communities viz. Caste Hindus, Muslims and Santals with distinct socio-cultural practices and ideologies; and critical notes on their “quality of life” in objective as well as subjective terms have been presented in this publication. The power, priviledges and autonomy that the women enjoy in the public domain are, however, used not to form a separate world of women but to reinforce their community life. The world of women of all the communities in the villages mentioned in this book is primarily centred around their household, family and lineage. This publication will serve the interest of teachers, researchers, students of sociology; as well as administrators, planners and social workers." ..more  Price: Rs. 900.00  Buy Now International Marketing O.

C. Khandela It is generally said that future is always uncertain. This saying is correct to some extent. But at the same time it is also said that exceptions are always there. This exception is about India’s certain higher rate of growth in the coming future. The future of Indian economy is brighter because of its huge human resources, rapidly upcoming service sector, availability of large number of competent professionals, vast market for every product, increasing impact of consumerism, absence of controls and licenses, interest of foreign entrepreneurs in India and existence of four hundred million middle class people.

Our country’s say in the international diplomacy and political affairs has now become meaningful, thousands of foreigners are working as executives in India, packages are becoming lucrative and competitive and annual rate of growth is highest after China. This present picture gives some reflections of the future. But this is all in the absolute sense and not in the relative terms. We are afraid, in future also problems of poverty, unemployment, illiteracy, conservatism, criminalization of politics and economic and social disparities will be prevailing nearly in the same way. This is the contradiction of present delighting picture and fearful apprehensiveness of future. What is the actuality? This question is not only relevant but has to be necessarily replied. That is why the book “Future of Indian Economy” has been written to analyze the conditions in the field like role of micro financing in eradicating problems of poverty and unemployment, the problems and prospects of knowledge economy, chances and challenges of outsourcing in service sector, role of insurance companies in making the future brighter and safer, aggressive retailing and millions of retailers, impact of future trading in commodities on smaller traders, reforms and changing pattern of lending and borrowing and challenges before the public sector banks.

Many countries depend heavily upon travel expenditures by foreigners as a source of taxation and as a source of income for the enterprises that sell services to these travellers. Consequently the development of tourism is often a strategy employed either by a Non-governmental organization (NGO) or a governmental agency to promote a particular region for the purpose of increasing commerce through exporting goods and services to non-locals.

India has become member of W.T.O. and chosen the policy of globalisation voluntarily. Now it is useless to talk much about the negativity of globalisation and is required to find ways and means so that the country may compete with full competence and comfort. Globalisation has made multi-dimensional effects and impacts in India’s foreign trade. We have trade relations with more than about 150 countries and deal in thousands of goods and services.

C. Khandelwal ,  Satish Batra ,  S. C. Sharma The stellar role of financial institutions in general and of banking sector in particular in promoting socio-economic developments is duly recognized universally. In India the significance of and expectations from this sector increased tremendously particularly after the nationalisation of major commercial banks in 1969. And undoubtedly, since then the banking institutions have tried to provide a big push both to the so called “transfer process” i.e.mobilisation of savings as well as their channelisation in desirable investments via the mechanism of finance, and social transformation through mass banking.There are, however, the starker facts of the matter also. While the quantum of deposit obilisation and credit outflows have remained below the potential and requirements respectively, the quality of leading has hardly satisfied the twin criteria of efficiency and equity. Paradoxically, the growth of literature on such an important area of banking has lagged behind its expansion and proliferation. An attempt has been made in the present edited volume to bridge this gap by combining a collection of theoretical and empirical studies so that practical suggestions may have theoretical underpinnings and the volume proves useful both heuristically for further researches and practically for action. ..more  Price: Rs. 500.00  Buy Now Information System Management M.

There is very little disagreement that the Indian macroeconomic performance has indeed been credible - higher and resilient growth, rising per capita income, a change in the national psyche, which is buttressed by the growing strength in the external sector. At the same time, there is no denying the fact that the large part of our population is still not connected to the mainstream socially or economically. Chapter I of the book tries to interpret the concept inclusive growth taking into consideration of inclusive growth. Inclusive growth implies delivering social justice to all, particularly disadvantaged groups. Chapter II makes attempts to study different initiatives taken by the government to achieve inclusive growth. Chapter III of the book attempts to understand the nature of transition from a socialist to a liberalized economy that has helped India emerge from a bottomless pit for aid to become a potential economic superpower. Chapter IV seeks to explore the missing ingredients of the economic growth. Strong economic growth is succeeding in bringing people out of poverty; nevertheless the country still has a long way to go before it can eradicate poverty. The growth is far from inclusive. Chapter V deals with issues and challenges of micro credit in India. Chapter VI of the book makes an attempt to understand present economic scenario of India and to focus on different dimensions of financial inclusion towards reducing yawning gap between haves and have-nots in crafting a sustainable and inclusive growth.

Chapter VIII tries to explore issues and strategies of financial inclusion in India. The last concluding chapter provides conclusions and suggestions for the acceleration of reform process towards achieving higher and inclusive economic growth.  ..more  Price: Rs. 850.00  Buy Now Karya Santusthi (Job Satisfaction) Anil Kumar Pareek HINDI ..more  Price: Rs. 625.00  Buy Now Human Engineering : A Management Perspective B.

In India, due to increase in diversity of population and the ever-expanding choices and freedom makes the study of consumer behaviour a must for the marketing function. The 21st century is not going to be happy with “consumer satisfaction” but is certainly with “consumer delight”. This book is an effort to pave for this paradigm shift.  The entire book is divided into six chapters. The first chapter explains the concept, significance, determinants and models of consumer behaviour. The empirical investigation for collection of primary data has been undertaken through a research methodology in the second chapter. The third chapter highlights the importance of psychological factors in consumer behaviour. The fourth chapter includes the role of personal factors. The fifth chapter incorporates the influence of social and cultural factors. The conclusion has been drawn in the sixth chapter. The book is useful to the students, research scholars, marketers, business firms and psychologists.  ..more  Price: Rs. 725.00  Buy Now Effective Communication Skills M.

Without the appropriate design and use of research methods, we are unlikely to gather quality information and as such create a shaky foundation to any review, evaluation or future strategy. For researchers, the group of research methods contained within this handbook are the research terms, and like any methods need to be used in the right way–for the right research. Research methods, if understood and used appropriately can make your research a lot easier. This book, therefore attempts on the one hand to explain and demystify the world of research methods, whilst on the other it seeks to provide a strarting point for their use. In this, we are not suggesting that using research methods is easy, but merely that it can be appreciated and undertaken by practitioners and non-research experts. This book, reflects our wider aim to develop and improve the performance of the researchers in their research works. In this, we hope this handbook goes some way in helping to address some of the persistent issues faced by researchers and contributes to ensuring positive changes in research field. ..more  Price: Rs. 450.00  Buy Now Vaishvikaran ka Banking Kshetra per Prabhav Harshit Dwivedi HINDI ..more  Price: Rs. 800.00  Buy Now Gender Budgeting : Contemporary Issues and Remedies Mita Ashish Shah Gender Budgeting is a dissection of the Government budget to establish its gender differential impacts and to translate gender commitments into budgetary commitments.

Today, most of the states face a resource crunch that is set to become more acute with every passing year. Large and persistent budget deficits and the fast growing debt burden are threatening their financial autonomy. Against this scenario, these states are frantically looking for new ways of working, cutting down costs and augmenting their revenue income. Coming out in an hour of need, this book suggests how Indian states can effectively mobilise additional resources and avoid falling into a debt trap. As the possibilities of new taxation are very limited, it focuses on generating additional revenue by controlling tax evasion and tax avoidance. Concrete examples are given to show that state tax revenue can be increased without a corresponding increase in the tax burden. This book is useful not only for the taxman and managers of state finances across the country, but also for students, teachers, researchers and the entire thinking community interested in the financial affairs of the Indian states.

Venkateswar The amount of Corporation Tax i.e. the income tax paid by the companies is a significant contribution from the corporate sector to the Indian exchequer. The rates of Income tax on companies, both private and public, are very high and constitute a major portion of the total spending of a company. Thus, a careful study of taxes influencing the business decisions and financial policies is of great importance in view of the constantly increasing burden of taxation placed upon corporate sector. The most important effect of taxation upon the corporate financial policy is its direct influence on the sources of financing. Finding out the influence of tax on corporate debt policies forms the basis for this book. During the recent years of high corporate tax rates, it is observed that most of the companies in India have been relying heavily on debt capital for meeting their capital requirements. The usual argument put forth for such discrimination in favour of debt financing stems primarily from the fact that interest payments on indebtedness are recognised as deductible expenses in computing taxable profits, whereas dividends on equity capital are not. The present study Corporate Taxation in India has been undertaken to examine the impact of tax on corporate capital structure financing in the private sector. Based on the data of some corporate enterprises and using various statistical techniques, it reveals that capital structure financing is influenced not only by the corporation tax but also by the interest and demand variable.
