Publisher: Excel Books, 2013

Academicians and industry practitioners always find paucity of books on case studies of Indian projects. Books or electronic media primarily provide access to case studies of projects executed in the developed world. Though in India, examples of projects executed successfully in all the sectors, be it IT, manufacturing, social, engineering, or any other sector are abundant, due to various reasons case studies of these projects are not available. This book is an endeavour to fill the void of Indian case studies relevant for Indian students to prepare them better for the Indian industry. The book has tried to cater to the diversity of management courses and management students with diverse backgrounds taking up jobs in different sectors, by including case studies from a variety of sectors. This book is intended as a reference book for management students and as a case-based teaching manual for the management faculty.
