N R Narayana Murthy, co-founder of IT giant Infosys has said that economic activities in India were stalled during UPA's regime despite the fact that Manmohan Singh, the extraordinary man was at the helm of affairs. In this episode of the Editorial our Managing Editor Mr Sujit Nair shares his take on the matter. 

The in-house IT giant Infosys Ltd. has warned its staff against moonlighting and stated that such actions will result in contract termination. Dual employment is prohibited by Infosys' code of conduct, the business reminded its employees in an internal post. 

What is the ‘truth’ about ‘us’? Phoolan Devi discovered a movie allegedly based on the ‘truth’ about her, distorted her life completely. This episode of The Longest Constitution progresses in its journey of mapping the constitutional right to privacy. We look at the contest over truth, between Phoolan Devi and Shekhar Kapoor and observe how the Constitution is a living text, interpreted and expanded upon over time. On the question of PIL, we uncover the class conflict in the reshaping of Delhi in the 1990s and take a parting look at electoral bonds.

What comes first? Monuments or people’s jobs? In this episode of The Longest Constitution, we take a look at yet another MC Mehta petition (there were several!) and how the PIL went from being a tool for the poor to an unaccountable weapon wielded by the Supreme Court. We also look at a case where a serial killer petitioned for his right to privacy and consent when it came to his autobiography being published. The case raised the question of whether a ‘public figure’ can file for defamation? And lastly, we look into electoral bonds and their unconstitutional nature, more deeply.

Be it charlie Dmelio, mr Beast, or infosys. For any creator or company to succeed in the market, one of the most crucial factors is timing. But does timing alone suffice for a creator or a company to succeed, or is time in the market also equally important? In this weeks episode of Smarter With Sid, Siddharth Deshmukh explains the difference and importance of time in the market vs timing in the market.

The Big Themes:

• ERP as a Service: In the past, business transformations and ERP transformations took years to complete. Today, customers need to get up and running on new platforms much more quickly—so Infosys developed an ERP as a Service offering, a bundle that simplifies and accelerates the process.
• Industry cloud solutions: Part of how Infosys guides clients through business transformation is through industry-specific "templates" that help customers envision what their new processes will look like.
• Clients save 30 to 40% on TCO: Infosys helps its customers get up and running on S/4 HANA cloud more quickly, but also at a reduced cost thanks to increased efficiencies.

The Big Quote: "We are very thrilled to take the partner-managed cloud approach for RISE with SAP. We're seeing a lot of successes and clients are loving it. Clients are saying that the whole adoption of S/4 HANA cloud is simplified even more with Infosys ERP as a service."

Infosys held a customer roundtable earlier this year where they invited customers, partners, and industry analysts to talk about the issues facing supply chains today.

It was a really interesting event with some fascinating learnings, so I invited Infosys executives Ramesh J Chougule, and Srinivas Krishnamoorthy to come on the podcast to share what they heard.

We had a fascinating conversation discussing overcoming the pandemic's effects on inventory, risk management, and demand shifts amongst other topics. I learned loads. I hope you do too.

On this episode of Shunya One, Amit and Shiladitya are joined by Alok Goyal, Partner at Stellaris Venture Partners. Shiladitya tells Alok how there haven't featured many Venture Capitalists on Shunya One till date and how it would be interesting to get to know his perspective on the entrepreneurship scene in India. Alok tells us about his journey, his learnings, how he came up with the idea for starting a Venture Capital company, and why he calls himself a SAAS investor. They discuss whether SAAS was his core thesis from day one or was it just for funding, why India as a startup ecosystem had not been established at the time when funding scenario was maturing and India was going through three phases of venture capitalists. Further, Alok shares stories of interesting startups they found, why SAAS will work in India and how has it evolved over time. Tune in for this and much more.

The Automotive industry supply chain is being buffeted by many converging disruptions at the moment - shortages of semi-conductors, fluctuating demand, and shipping issues to name just a few.

To hear more about this and how digitisation is helping I invited Matthias Haberstroh, the Head of Supply Chain Management at ZF’s Commercial Vehicle Technology division, and Nikhil Balkundi from Infosys to come on the podcast.

We had a fascinating conversation around supply chain digitisation, the impacts on the automotive industry, and what future Automotive supply chains will look like.  As usual, I learned loads, and I hope you do too...
