Why the cards?

Be it national governance, departmental practice, personal finance, or even a supermarket the cards shone.  It is the card age right away especially in India. In case of subversive activities happening new and then photo identity proof help ward of the evil.

It all started with the diving license whence it turned into a portable card. Earlier it was a cumbersome practice of carrying the A4 size form that was often bound to a hard cover which could be folded for comfort. Like other instruments that came in later the driving license was introduced to certify you driving ability and to prevent road misuse.  Your name and particulars where in record and so was your identity.

The laminated card made all the difference perhaps it encouraged people to get one and be safe.But this card had no use in business or personal finance matters.  

Among these smart cards debit and credit cards issued by financial institutions such as bank became most popular. These transformed the way we manage our personal finance and even small business.  These instruments have accorded tremendous flexibility and movement. You need not carry loads of money any more in your pocket or bag and eventually get mugged.   A swish at the ATM and you get the moolah you require.   

The Ration card is also popular among those below the poverty line but it also acted like a fantastic address and photo identity proof which worked on many difficult instances. Along with your mark sheet which acted as proof of birth the ration card acted as photo and address identity for availing passport, electric connection etc.

The voter identity card also facilitated fair play in case of elections big or small. This also played a valuable role in its use as photo identity and address proof. But than those eligible for voting could avail this card. Hence still did not have an all purpose card that could be applied for by one and all.   

Project Aadhar by UIDAI recently launched as UID Card benefits those recipients beneficiary of Government based schemes and privileges. The card uses biometrics as means of identification and hence is fool proof. This instrument is an all purpose card very useful for photo identification.             

The permanent account number (PAN) in India was one of the major steps taken to create greater accountability regards taxation and financial transaction. Initially there was a great hesitation regarding this popular instrument in the country. Introduced by the ever vigilant Department of Taxation the usage brought into the net many tax payers who did not. There came a greater curb in illegal transactions and wrong banking practices. The mandatory subscription for opening bank account of purchasing properties etc brought in more people. In India, even the NRI require the pan card number for conducting financial transactions and property purchase. There are no disadvantages of this laminated card as people believe. 

Unlike credit and debit cards PAN and UID cards can be applied for online. The application forms can be downloaded with ease and submitted. Some formalities could be manual but nevertheless less bothersome.  

Reforms Key to India's Economic Growth

After years of stringent policies the socialistic pattern was done away with by Manmohan Singh as a finance minister. The UPA government promises more reforms under Manmohan now the Prime Minister of India.

The government announced to the industry a new set of reforms in order to boost the slow down in manufacturing sector. This reforms will come about with setting of a joint task force with India Inc.

All this transpired whence Commerce Mimister Anand Sharma held a review meeting with CII. He also intends to hold a review meeting with FICCI soon.      

The urgency came into picture due to dismal industrial performance where the growth slipped down to 5.6 %. It also augured the need for a positive business environment in the country.  Many factors and issues will be taken into consideration for a positive outcome. 

Opportunities for US

For slowdown in economic growth and poor employment rate solution can be found elsewhere in China and India suggests Business Week. The economy news magazine sees opportunities for American products in under developed countries.

The key to success is niche products with a greater degree of difficulty in the manufacturing process. Hence these products cannot be replicated or discounted. Cutting edge technology can yield robust order from less developed countries.

Dye Manufacturing Key Issues

Dyes are substance or chemicals which impart color to a material. The manufacturing process is complex and at times hazardous. The techniques differ in manufacturing of various dyes. After the invention of synthetic coloring agents many product types have been manufactured for different applications. The process requires synthesizing, filtration, drying and blending with other products and additives. The final product is then ready for use. After synthesis the product is separated using distillation precipitation and then crystallization. After this fishing operations are carried out.

The manufacture releases air pollutants some of them are NO2, SO2, volatile organic compounds and hydrogen chloride. Solid wastage effluents and sludge are also of major concern. Various treatment methodologies are applied to destroy or lessen the presence of toxic elements released during production.

Pollution prevention and control is a must during the process of production. The amount of toxic wastes has to be minimized. Use of alternative dyestuff is recommended instead of azo dyes for textile manufacturers. It is wise to reuse intermediates or by products than throw them. Minimize spillage by using automated filling plants similarly toxic packing material can be sent to the supplier for reuse. Reduce the generation of waste water and discover uses for rejected lots if possible. Replace highly harmful raw materials with bio degradable ones.

Land use for the plant and the neighboring lands should be protected from toxic pollutants and wastes. On instance of accidental release or spillage of toxic substances a prevention and protection plan should be ready. Quality design inputs and maintenance should be implemented in order to minimize toxic emissions. Careful monitoring and control process along with frequent analysis and reporting is a must. 

The complicated process of dye manufacturing in India is highly advanced. The chemical industry produces many dyestuffs and intermediates to facilitate the production locally. The products are slod with India as well as exported to many other countries in the world.

Most of the large scale businesses in India or mega corps have reached zenith over the decades. The untiring efforts of the pioneers resulted in creating an empire. But this is not a fixed paradigm especially in the days of professional management services.

Though not overnight the exponential growth that Dhirubhai’s business enterprises underwent is remarkable. This was a one man performance similar to phenomenal rise of Infosys and Bill Gates Microsoft Corporation. But than not everyone is born with the characteristics of Dhirubhai, Narayan Murthy or Bill Gates. These greats have built an empire with limited resources.

For small time starters it is imperative that they take note of their resources. They must work within the limitation heavy institutional borrowing can be a bad strategy. Only whence at a stage growth is assured then one should go for rapid expansion. For many this can be a decade long process. Lot of grit and determination is required along with a clear foresight.

The aim and objectives have to be pursued relentlessly in order to succeed. Hence to avoid ending in a disaster dream big but act wisely one step at a time in measured pace.
