One of the most significant trends sweeping the Indian management education domain is the significant importance being attached to prior work-experience of MBA candidates.
Overwhelming percentage of students at IIMs and other top-schools are candidates with some prior work experience.
In the fresh data shared by IIM-L with MBAUniverse.com, a whopping 89% of candidates admitted to the Post Graduate Programme in Management (PGP) have some prior work experience. Significantly, just a year ago, only 50% of the batch admitted to PGP 2007-2009 were candidates with work-experience.
Informs IIM-L, “The total number of experienced students in 2007-2009 batch were 122 (50.41%) which has increased to 274 (89.25%) for 2008-2010 batch. This is an increase of around 49% in the total number of experienced students.”
As per the IIM-L batch-profile of PGP 2008-10, of the 307 students, there are only 30 female students. Last year the number stood at 14 female students. There are 24 NRI students as well. As much as 93% of the batch at IIM-L is made of students with engineering degree.
IIM-L has also admitted 5 students who have some physical disability, thereby become a more inclusive institution.

Looking merely at direct taxes, it is often suggested that India is an under-taxed nation. This, says R. Vaidyanathan, does not take into account the speed money paid for government service. This rent-seeking makes the nation high-taxed.
THERE is a view among some experts that India is an under-taxed economy. Many a time Finance Ministers believe in this and exhort people to pay their dues.
Advertisements are issued to induce people to pay taxes and novel schemes are suggested before every Budget to augment government revenues. One of the common arguments is based on the share of taxes to GDP and it is suggested that it can be much higher. Another is in terms of the composition of the taxes - direct and indirect - and it is suggested that the latter, which are regressive, are larger share of the pool.
Table 1 gives the share of taxes to GDP for select years from 1991. The share of taxes, both direct and indirect, has been around 15 per cent of GDP in the last decade and half. The share of indirect taxes was of the order of 11.5 per cent and that of direct taxes 3.6 per cent.
Based on this data of direct taxes to GDP of nearly 4 per cent, many experts, particularly of the Left persuasion, argue that we are a under-taxed nation from the view of the direct taxes. But, as we will show, they do not take in to account the payment to be made to government employees (variously called bribe, rent seeking, speed money, lubrication, etc.) for carrying on any activity and to that extent the total taxes are much higher than reflected.
Table 2 gives the level and composition of taxes of both Central and State governments in the last decade. A slight shift in the proportion of direct taxes from 1991 to 2003 is seen. It has gone up from 14 per cent of all taxes to nearly 24 per cent during this period when the proportion of the indirect taxes came down from 86 per cent to 76 per cent.
A substantial drop is seen in the Customs duties due to our international commitments. Excise duties declined from 28 per cent to 23 per cent during 1991 to 1996 and by a similar magnitude later. The share of personal income-tax showed an increase from 6.6 per cent to 9.9 per cent. As personal income-taxes and excise duties are shared with State governments, there is no enthusiasm for the Centre to reform them.
The aggregate taxes do not reveal the full picture of evasion and coverage. Table 3 provides the number of returns filed by salaried and non-salaried persons in 1999-2000 according to the I-T Department.
It says that there were no salaried persons earning more than Rs 1 crore annually and in all only 200 persons above Rs 25-lakh. In the case of self-employed, the number is around 900 in the Rs 25-lakh category with none in the Rs 50-100-lakh category.
From Table-3, it looks as if a relief fund should be created for all our top film-stars, cricket players, surgeons, lawyers, chartered accountants, architects, tax consultants and other self-employed persons. They all seem to be in distress!
Table 4 provides the number of returns from some categories of services as published by the I-T Department. The numbers speak volumes about the coverage and the nature of underlying collections.
The whole country there are apparently only 10,539 utensil and 5477 furniture shops in the taxable category. Pinch yourself.
Immediately the argument will be to strengthen, enhance, improve and network the I-T Department. The issue is not that. It is much more serious and cancerous. If you visit the Postal Department officers’ quarters in, say, Mumbai you will find mostly cycles and scooters.
But if you visit the residential quarters of the staff of Direct or Indirect Tax Department, you may find expensive cars parked there. That should provide clues to the issues facing us.
At the same time we find that the income of government employees rising faster than the inflation rate in the last thirty years.
Table 5 provides the increase in salaries of public sector employees in relation to inflation. The emoluments have risen 3610 per cent from 1971-72 to 2000-01 when the Consumer Price Index climbed 1440 per cent. This implies the public sector employees are net gainers with their real income well protected.
Hence decline in the real income cannot be a reason, if at all it is justifiable, for rent seeking from ordinary citizens.

There are signs indicating that the budget for increased spending on health, education, Mid-day meal, the use of state guarantee schemes and other emergency aid for the common people. This is a continuation of the policy over the past 50 years. He was the municipal development and the cooperative movement in the sixties, garibi hatao in the seventies and human development in the eighties. But the man in the situation has not changed much. This is because the Government is temperamentally proximity of the rich. Route Jawahar Rozgar Yojana place before sarpanch home. The house under Indira AWAS Yojana is built for his brother.
Health care medicines meant for primary health centre are sold on the black market. Thus, Rajiv Gandhi had said that only 15 paise out of a rupee sent from New Delhi reached the addressee. IMF, the first deputy director Anne Krueger warned, “The Indian government is a wide variety of subsidies for the poor, benefits non-poor, as many groups. These subsidies should be reviewed because they seek only to the growing budget deficit. ” There is no pressure inside the system, this would be money to versickern on small people. The government links, west Bengal, it has succeeded in building a pressure group of the Communist Party at the grassroots level. The failure of these systems is almost certain, in the absence of a portion of these frameworks. We need better opportunities to achieve the common man. The root of the problem lies in the nature of the market. We must make the free market, so that Indian companies to reach out globally, effectiveness and India in the world, No. 1 economic power. But the market follows the diktat of purchasing power is concentrated among the rich. There is no place for the common voice of men on the market. There is thus a contradiction between the two objectives that we have before us. The government wants uPA manage this contradiction by an increase in corporate and income tax such as the introduction of a process of education in the last budget. This approach is probably cancelled because only 15 paise of every rupee spent will probably reach the poor. In addition, taxes as the education process of our businesses are not competitive in the global marketplace. Sub-contracting provision of NGOs, the rate of delivery of 15 to 25 or even 50 paise, but companies still need to impose not made the world more competitive. How should we less interference in the market and, at the same time, support for sharing the man? Wild Horse Finance Minister should think otherwise. The market is like a wild horse. This may be the driver to his destination, if they can prove the reins. The Minister of Finance should be a tax system for enterprises to create jobs. It can do so by a reduction in tax rates of consumption labour intensive units. At present, our businesspeople prefer to avoid automatic that the problems of labour laws and trade union militancy. The intensity of the use of Indian industry is declining. The Minister of Finance could, for example, that a device pay wages and salaries of more than 40 per cent of its turnover will be entitled to 25 per cent reduction of excise duty. The businessman is offset, where the problems of employment of large numbers. In addition, lower rates of duty that can be imposed on sectors such as handlooms labour, agro-processing and garment manufacturing. On the reverse, capital-intensive industries, in a relationship of eating can be heavily taxed. The growth of bottles Soft-Drink industry has resulted in the closure of the street corner fruit juice manufacturers and providers of tenders coconuts. Textiles handlooms pressure are similar to those of large companies in the textile and discard the work of Weber. These offers should be heavily taxed to eat, so that work units can survive intense. The government in both policy areas. Establishment of an educational process leads to greater burden of taxation and entrepreneurs zerfrisst able to invest, vis-a-vis its foreign competitors. The introduction of higher excise duties on alcoholic beverages and major textile mills increased production costs and has the same effect. Both taxes have a negative impact on global competitiveness. But the introduction of an increase in excise is preferable, because this range to avoid leaks, tax and spend approach. Employment is generated, net of taxes to be collected and without the participation of sarpanch and the village-level workers. A similar policy must be implemented in regard to small industries. The Reserve Bank of India has a policy of 40 per cent of the credit should go to priority sectors. But the share of priority sectors, despite the continued decline in broadening the definition of this sector. The reason is that bank managers, earn profits from its branch. The Bank has contributed to huge administrative burden in managing large numbers of small accounts. There is a contradiction between two objectives, there is the director of the institution. On the one hand, he must show to win, on the other hand, he worked in the service sector priorities. Grand loans finance ministers have for the industry profitability on loans to SSIs. A tax of one per cent should be imposed on large loan and the amount spent on cross-subsidies to its branches, the SSIs credits to cover rising administrative costs. The branch loan on SSIs obtain grants and benefits. Such cross-subsidisation of taxing large SSIs is ready not to be confused with the fiscal subsidies such as life and fertilizers, general tax revenue. Like the government high rates of air conditioning to Class II, Class subsidize, it should tax similar to large borrowers and to subsidize small borrowers, without an increase in the average cost of credit in the economy . The high level of taxes on large units to do so, they are no longer competitive in the global economy. The India can not approve the machine flooded with fabric from abroad to the closure of the two Handwebstühlen and the local textile mill. This problem should be solved by a parallel increase in import duties. So, both imported and manufactured mechanically national substance is expensive in the domestic market and hence the handgewebten to survive. Consumers should be asked to bear the high cost of this substance as a taxpayer, for the generation of employment. Indeed, the tax burden as a whole must not go down when the government closed the welfare programs are in tandem and reduce taxes in proportion. The challenge is the budget is intended to ensure common prosperity of mankind, without resorting to government machinery. The market must be in the right direction, incentives for employment generation. The author is a former professor of economics, Indian Institute of Management, Bangalore.

It will make wonders, but the fact is that tuition at the University of Delhi (DU) remained the same for over six decades.
“Each day, students pay R 30 for a cup of coffee and R 10 for cars, parking. But the monthly charges remained in the studies R 15 and R 18 for Undergraduate and Graduate Programs, and since 1938,” said Vice-Chancellor Deepak Nayyar YOU.
“How long lunch is also available?” he asked. Nayyar standpoint, it is a necessity for the university, their fee structure.
Several students have said they are not just the idea of a tax hike. Given the general increase in income and standard of living, English (Honours), the first year student at St. Stephen’s, Sushmit Sarkar, that higher education was made “at affordable prices” today.
“The university lean costs appear in the report on the” obscenely high fees, some private schools and institutions of the loading operation. Those who can not afford more money for higher education, “he said.
Bemerkte Anjalli Ravi Kumar, a second-year MBA student at the Faculty of Economics of the company: “There is no doubt that we pay much less than what we are able, are willing to pay” . To say that the tuition increases is a step in the right direction, but she stressed that the University must be sensitive to students from lower layers during economic structure of the new taxes.
With the consistent view, Tripti Parule a final-year student in journalism at Kalindi College, said: “We should not lose sight of the fundamental principle of education for all”. “She suggested that the new fee structure is divided into categories based on different income groups.” The section should be financially weak surrender of fees monitoring of subsidies on other weaknesses in the economic hierarchy, “said Parule.
While supporting the idea of a concession for the most weak, the dean of students’ welfare, YOU, Hema Raghavan warned that “things on a silver platter should not lead to assess” . She explains: “In addition to subsidies, we are introducing innovations” Earn while-you-learning “for the disadvantaged section, they can target employees within the university or institution for the plaintiffs’ employment, as a reserve audit in libraries,… In this way, they are aware of the value of grants them. ”
However, there is a section of the community of students - and an influential political in one - to resist any form of movements in the direction of increased fees. The Delhi University Students’ Union (DUSU) would protest against such an approach, “said DUSU President Nakul Bhardwaj. “Almost 70% of students come from lower-middle class families and even a minimum increase of costs, they can have effects,” he said.
Recognizing that the tax revision “can not be dictated by ‘, but by reflection, consultation and consensus,” Nayyar said: “We must ensure that those who can not afford, not only do not pay, but receive full fees - Liberation. ”
He added: “Universities are now functioning serious resource crunch.Higher education should be financed by the government. Universities should be completed by this attempt at mobilization of resources. “
