Basant Jee....I remember during our Bangalore meet of TED sometime in Feb-Mar'08, you gave a fantastic statement..."Promoters who really need money from public, who are so called 'bhooka nanga' (in financial crisis), will build great empire because they will put all what they have at stake for their business", in that context only I feel any company run by these big business houses like Reliance, Birla, Tata will not qualify for great investment.....
For eq...
Telecom - Bharti is still #1 inspite of Reliance Com from Ambani.
Retail - PRIL is at the top inspite of Reliance Retail being in the battle field.
Trend also doesn't have great vision, inspite of aquiring Landmark, they are not able to do much.......like in PRIL case we know what plan they have for next 5years.
So, without clear vision and focus approach I believe sooner or later these Westsides, Shooper stop, Globus etc will mearly exist.
