Inspiring Thoughts – Part4

To get out of a difficulty, one usually must go through it.

Love is the only thing that can be divided without being diminished.

Happiness is enhanced by others but does not depend upon others.

For every minute you are angry with someone,you lose 60 seconds of happiness that you can never get back.

Do what you can, for who you can, with what you have, and where you are.

The linearity of revenues and headcount for IT Industry

One bugbear faced by TCS and most of its Tier-I peers is what the IT industry nattily calls ‘the linearity of revenues and headcount’. In plainspeak, it means that revenue growth for companies such as TCS, Infosys and Wipro has become synonymous with employee addition. In TCS, for example, revenues moved up from Rs 9,727 crore in 2004-05 to Rs 18,685 crore last financial year — a 92 per cent jump. Headcount, meanwhile, has almost doubled from 45,714 to 89,419 employees.

S. Ramadorai, a TCS lifer and CEO & MD for 11 years, concedes that breaking this linearity is an important issue for the company. “We never wanted headcount and revenues to be linear. So, if we look at the number of people we had when we were a billion in revenues and the number of people we have now at $4.3 billion, you will see that the ratio has changed,” says Ramadorai who adds that the company’s focus on R&D will eventually help it break the linearity.

“So, the question we continue to ask ourselves is, ‘when we achieve $10 billion or $6 billion, should it be on the current ratio of headcount?’ And I believe it will be achieved more efficiently,” he says.

Does Infy holds a better Brand Recall than TCS ??

TCS CEO Ramadorai speaks on global brand recall.

  • Infosys holds a better brand recall among customers worldwide. Indeed, recently, the otherwise meticulous newspaper, the Economist, incorrectly described Infosys as India’s largest IT services company.
  • Similarly, TCS’ banking software product BankOne pulls in $120 million (Rs 504 crore) a year, but it is Infosys’ smaller offering Finacle that is better known

Tata Elxsi’s VCL adds virtual reality to Ta Ra Rum Pum

Tata Elxsi’s Visual Computing Labs has provided virtual special effects for the Hindi film Ta Ra Rum Pum. The effects involved 800 shots displaying 3D people filling up a stadium, 3D cars racing on the tracks, smoke, fire and sparks and a 3-1/2 minute song sequence in CGI — with dancing bears, chocolate rivers and the actors Rani and Saif in a fantasy foodworld.

At first glance this two-hour action packed film, filled with fast cars and beautiful women, a family drama packaged in a slick  production, looks like a lot of special effects, the in-camera type, but very little CGI.

The reality is somewhat different.

एक ऐसा गीत गाना चाह्ता हूं, मैं..
खुशी हो या गम, बस मुस्कुराना चाह्ता हूं, मैं..

दोस्तॊं से दोस्ती तो हर कोई निभाता है..
दुश्मनों को भी अपना दोस्त बनाना चाहता हूं, मैं..

जो हम उडे ऊचाई पे अकेले, तो क्या नया किया..

वोह सोचते हैं कि मैं अकेला हूं उन्के बिना..
तन्हाई साथ है मेरे, इतना बताना चाह्ता हूं..
