Creditably, BMW has become perhaps the only auto company after Skoda, that entered the Indian market with a fully owned subsidiary

Now, since we have done that, we are here.” Creditably, BMW has become perhaps the only auto company after Skoda, that entered the Indian market with a fully owned subsidiary (Sony being the first foreign company allowed to enter with a 100% subsidiary). But discreditably so, BMW won’t be the first auto company ever to suffer continuous losses.

Statistics after statistics are ranted out by luxury automobile CEOs to prove the future of the auto industry. One goes like this for example – while in the year 2000, India had only 5 car owners per 1,000 Indians, the figure is expected to rise to a huge 11 (!!!) by 2010. What the CEOs fail to point out is that the maximum growth will only be in the middle & economy car segments, and almost minimal in the luxury segments.

Case study in...

A lot is happening in South Africa. A country that was better known for epitome of violence and apartheid regime is now experiencing a completely new infrastructural development. It accounts for one-third of the sub-Saharan Africa’s GDP & one-fourth of entire continent’s GDP. Unmindful of evident social concerns, it is progressing at near 5%, with a manageable inflation figure. Elite hotels, bars, casinos et al are twinkling all over, pumping millions and are attracting many tourists.

A different kind of small car from Bajaj

Now even Bajaj Auto Limited (BAL) is mulling a small car concept. The new car would be an in-house research & development product from Bajaj. However, Bajaj has made it clear that its small car is not planned to give competition to the much-hyped Rs.1 lakh car from the house of Tata. It would rather be a unique product in itself. BAL aims to give a new definition to small cars by its high technology small car. The small car would be more on the lines of a four-wheeled Pulsar by which the company means a value for money product. But it will be a long while before the senior cousin of the Pulsar sends the pulses racing.

Shrinking edens drive a wedge between man and his fellow primates

Eight months later, it was time to release Gismo into a wild troop. For the first time, I was exposed to the complex social life of wild baboons as they accepted me as mother of the newcomer. I watched how male aggression, provoked by the presence of men, changes the behaviour of the troop, showing the observer a particular facet of behaviour that tends to dominate the whole. How did this effect the conclusions drawn by male primatologists, and which primate studies were necessary to gain a full impression of primate behaviour? I decided to read both, and along with all that the baboons taught, draw my own conclusions.

With enormous generosity of spirit, Gismo’s new baboon friends directed the release process, aware of our reasons for being there. A crash course in baboon language was necessary to the success of the release; I read the clues each individual offered while forming a relationship with my foster child. What they showed about the inner nature of wild primates changed my life; it was the start of a long process where I imperceptibly touched a lost part of the self – a part lost through civilisation and our self imposed separation from the rest of Nature.
