Guys,
Sanjeev Bhikchandani of Infoedge called me up a couple of minutes ago and he vehementally denied that the management had anything to do with the people disrupting the AGM. He expressed his serious regret for people who travelled all the way for the AGM and said that he would respond to querries on Infoedge through email.
My note:: It was a classic gesture of corporate governence. COmpanies generally brush off AGM's like another of those regulatory events but here we have a management that is ready to sort out things for its shareholders.
In ICRA's AGM which happened on the same day as Infoedge a similar thing repeated itself. One of my relatives who had gone all the way to attend the ICRA AGM narrated the event in exactly the same way as the shareholder who had gone to attend the Naukri AGM.
Unfortunately the guys who attend these AGM's are interested in the food packets rather then taking the opportunity to really understand what the company is doing!

Sanjeev comes across as a no nonsence down to earth entrepreneur. Very positive of him to immediatelly respond/defend the company's reputation.
Wish the price was not so highly valued for us to be able to make an investment.

Sanjeev jee's response rests any doubts on the management part, at least.

The most important quality for an investor is temperament,not intellect.A temperament that neither derives great pleasure from being with the crowd nor against it

Sometimes being judgment is not best thing to do. The very fact that "he is running that company", is enough to say the minimum.

Wow...This is really commendable on the management's part.
Basant, did anyone from TED contact him about this first or did he get in touch with you proactively ?
