Is the Indian economy really struggling ???



Don’t Panic…Economy is not struggling; It’s as era of Evolution!!!

Economy is not struggling...the business models are changing, demanding for the reforms, acceptability to change, new & fresh thinking…


There is an interesting insight to see the things from a different perspective:
Often heard nowadays that " Indian Economy is struggling ".
Sit back & think "Is the economy really struggling or our business models are changing rapidly?”

Some of the awakening thoughts:

                                                                                                                
* Car sales are going down... but Ola / Uber/ Zoom/ Avis/ Myles and more Leasing & hiring services are rising!




* home buyers are getting less…but Hotel business is rocketing. Online rental home applications are off beating their own numbers.

*  Restaurants are going empty... but more of online food ordering apps are growing like anything…name a few are; Delivery.com (Android, iOS), Swiggy (Android, iOS), Zomato (Android, iOS), Uber Eats (Android, iOS), Yelp (Android, iOS), Food panda (Android, iOS), Eatigo (Android, iOS) and other home delivery models are rising!

* Old commission-based businesses are snivelling... but online services for almost every sector at low cost, are finding takers all over!
* Farming was a task of farmers only…but look at the growth of urban farming’s happening all over by the name of Urban-Gardens, Urban Jungles and so on.   

* Cell phone bills have reduced but the user base and internet penetration are increasing like crazy.

* Stable (consider "Government Jobs") are dwindling but "Start-up" jobs offering equity & Flexi work time are expanding.

* Jobs seekers are reducing… but job creators are on the rise.

* Per capita income has grown…expenditures of individuals are growing.

* Travel of individuals, families, businesses, leisure’s are growing like ever before.
  
Working 40 hrs a week for 40 years is trend of past. Working for few years and spending quality time in contributing to society is the trend.

The bitter truth is what we are experiencing a big transformation, transition phase and any transition is painful for the "Better set"...
"The era of Evolution"
It's challenging for those whose business models are based on ancient data & methodology....

Old legendry player’s style of Shrikant & Gaveskar cannot win one day & T20 matches today!
We need a Rohit/Virat style today.

It's a mystery for those who have never looked beyond traditional methods or have assiduously resisted change of any kind.

Economy is not struggling...Business is Changing.

CHANGING CONSTANTLY & RAPIDLY... And Sensex may be dropping, but, maybe correcting the rise and this is happening worldwide.

Virtually blown-up growth bubble is settling down and real growth is gradually coming up. Be a part of the game and become the Game-Changer.

Recent statement of Narayan Murthy (ET 23 Aug 2019) where he has mentioned it clearly that…

It is a time to rework and analyse…how to adopt the change and grow with it! The clouds are just getting clearer…it’s time to gear-up for new space; the better tomorrow with open mind.
