2020s belong to India: Tata Group Chairman

New Delhi, Dec 12 : Tata Group Chairman N. Chandrasekaran said that impact of Covid on innovation has been ‘all-pervasive’ and the models of working from home are making all companies rethink the future of work.
Addressing a session on “Inspired India: A Business Leader’s Perspective”, during Ficci’s 93rd Annual General Meeting, Chandrasekaran said: “My roots that are embedded in technology make me see the Covid pandemic and its impact on India in a very positive frame of mind. The 2020s belong to India.” Elaborating further, Chandrasekaran said that self-evident trends like advancement of digital data and decoupling of China on the United States, fortify this belief.
“In all these trends I see tremendous, limitless opportunities in India. We have often struggled to grow manufacturing as a percentage of our GDP,” he said.
“We usually highlight issues like power, logistics, and labour. We have pointed out high-interest rates and have also understood regulatory overreach and interference.” However, in the future, he said if we put this behind us and as an industry start acting by visionary scale, we will become a pivot to the new world order.
