The Shares Grandfather Left Behind: How Forgotten Investments Are Becoming a New Business

Pune (Maharashtra) [India], September 28: It often starts with an old file pulled out while clearing a cupboard.Inside may be a share certificate bought by a father or grandfather decades ago, a dividend warrant, or a document that no one in the family has looked at for years. What appears to be an insignificant piece of paper can sometimes represent an investment that is still worth lakhs—or even more.Across India, thousands of families are finding themselves in similar situations. Addresses have changed, paperwork has been misplaced, and generations have moved on without knowing exactly what their predecessors invested in.Estimates suggest that nearly ₹4,00,000 crore worth of financial assets remain unclaimed or disconnected from their rightful owners.Reco...

The Squeezed Middle: Tutul Consulting on the Unsung Heroes Who Uphold the Organization

Mumbai (Maharashtra) [India], September 23: Think about the manager who talks a stressed-out employee off the ledge on Monday morning (read someone threatening to have a breakdown and resign), sits through a budget fight with another department on Tuesday, and then has to explain a confusing new policy from leadership to new hires in the their team on Wednesday – all before lunch on Thursday. That’s a fairly normal week for a middle manager.They’re not the ones setting the big vision. They’re not the ones doing the hands-on work either. They’re the people in between, and honestly, they’re some of the hardest-working, least-appreciated people in any company.Pulled in every directionMiddle managers get hit from all sides, all the ti...

Why Isn’t Aviation Spoken of in the Same Breath as Medicine and Engineering?- By Dev Punj, VP, Chimes Aviation Academy (CAA)

Dev Punj, Vice President, Chimes Aviation Academy (CAA)Gurugram (Haryana) [India], August 14: Ask a room full of parents in India what they want their child to become, and you’ll hear ‘doctor’, ‘engineer’, or ‘maybe a civil servant’. Somewhere down the list, if it comes up at all, someone will mention pilot – usually followed by a comment about how expensive it is or how it’s “an uncertain path” or “whether it is a practical career at all”. Nobody says that about medicine, even though medicine is expensive too. Nobody says it about engineering.That gap is worth sitting with, because it isn’t really about money. It’s about how we talk about the professions themselves.Three professions, one ...
