Budget after marriage!

I have always lived without budget in my bachelor life, which was till last year!
I have lived a lavish life till date, but after marriage I see a sudden change in my life that we have to live under the budget. First of all, the new fact is introduced that I need to prepare a budget for every month and live accordingly.

I have heard previously that more expenses would be there than the income - mostly after marriage!

If you are a bachelor now, please take this 2 cents of advice from me - Go ahead and start saving, while you enjoy your life. I am not telling you to just save, without enjoying your life - but start saving, while you have good time...

It is more valuable to have the money saved in your early days, rather than later. Rs.500 per month in bachelor life is more valuable than Rs.5000 per month in your 40 years of your life! This is a fact and everybody accepts it!

There are couple of ways we can increase your income -
(i) look for a better lucrative job
(ii) work hard in the company you are currently working and aim for a hike in the current job or get promoted
(iii) While you are on job, look for extra income
(iv) Start doing business - More risks you take, there is more possibility of gains as well.
(v) Most importantly reduce your unwanted expenses. That is one most important point of view - which most of the indians try to follow.

Software Services is a best business - Anytime and NOW

The majority of small and medium-sized companies cannot do business without their PCs and internet connections, according to a survey.

A report by security company McAfee and IT outsourcer WireworX found that 84 per cent of those questioned rated PCs and the internet as " indispensable" to their everyday working life.

But despite this level of dependency, four out of five companies are unhappy with the levels of support provided by IT vendors, and only 14.5 per cent are completely satisfied with all aspects of the purchase and support process.

This shows a right gap for fitting in to do the service business of software. It is even great if it is started in Chennai, to leverage more advantages!!

5 ways to start a company (without quitting your day job)

I found an interesting business link from CNN Money.com, which is very useful for like minded people like us!! -

Excerpts from the article are -
Odds are, however, that you're still working for someone else. Maybe it's because you're afraid to give up that steady paycheck. Perhaps you're simply terrified by the thought of placing yourself at the mercy of greedy investors, cutthroat competitors, and a potentially indifferent marketplace. Whatever the reason, it's clear that there's a lot of unrequited entrepreneurial longing out there.

Ideas for Government - Chennai Collector Udhayachandran

I recently came across this website -
Ideas for Government

I thought this might be useful for any city governance.
Probably, if Udhayachandran, Chennai Collector takes a look at it, it might be helpful.

By the way - Did you know about Chennai Collector?
Did his B.E., in Namakkal. In 1995, he completed his I.A.S. In 1996, he took charge in Kanchipuram. In 1997, he was a sub-collector in Paramakkudi. In 1999, in Kancheepuram, he was a DRDA planning officer. In 2001, INCOSERV Kunnoor Managing Director. He worked in TASMARC. He was also in fact - Chennai Deputy Commissioner.

He was also the managing director of ELCOT company. This is the first time he is becoming a collector and that too for Chennai, after his 11 years IAS career.

He has taken pledge of getting Chennai a place in the map of Information Technology of India.

Simply Great!! Chennai is all set for becoming the first IT hub for the south tamil nadu region!! We are too excited about this fact!!!!

Talking to press, the Collector, who assumed charged today, said "Chennai.Com would be eye opener, and Chennai will find its due place in the IT Map of India. "Udhayachandran was earlier Director of ELCOT (Electronic Corporation of Tamil Nadu).

"First we need to setup an IT park, I have already taken action in this regard as the MD of ELCOT.The park would require 40 acres of Land.

The immediate plan was to set up an IT Park to enable IT companies put up their IT units. Ongoing infrastructure projects and drinking water schemes would be expedited.

In other hand, Union IT Minister Dayanidhi Maran said that efforts to develop IT corridors in tier-two cities like Coimbatore, Chennai, Tiruchrapalli and Tirunelveli were also taken and as part of it he had spoken to Union Minister for Civil Aviation, Praful Patel to develop the existing airports.

Minister said that he would be going to South Korea in the middle of June to hold talks with IT and other companies to ask them to start their business in India.

Minister said that as the new government in Tamilnadu was friendly with the Union government suitable ambience would be created to attract more and more investmens towards the State. 'Both the Central and State Governments are planing to increase employment opportunities through the IT sector and also planning to attract more IT companies into Tamilnadu,' he added.

Speciality of Aravind Hospital - Dr. V's vision


Aravind Eye Hospitals are the expression of a vision quest, a response to the silent call of thousands who have lost their sight.

Under the leadership of Dr. G. Venkataswamy(popularly known as Dr.V), Aravind Eye Hospital was founded in Chennai in 1976 with the mission to eradicate needless blindness in Tamilnadu.

Now in its 25th year, Aravind's innovative eye care delivery system is recognised as a model for other developing countries. Much importance is given to ensure that all patients are accorded the same care and high quality service, regardless of their economic status. As a result of a unique fee system and effective management, Aravind is able to provide free eye care to two-thirds of its patients from the revenue generated from the other third of its paying patients.

TN Chapter of CII will stress on IT park in Chennai


The Tamil Nadu Chapter of the Confederation of Indian Industry (CII) said that it would stress on establishing IT parks in Chennai, Trichy and Coimbatore in the coming financial year.

They pointed out that the recent survey on Skill Mapping in Tamil Nadu State showed a gap between 'what the industries want' and what is 'available out there in quality and quantity - CII would promote skill development initiatives.

Looks like CII is going to work with ITIs and engineering colleges to fill this gap.

Muthamil - A Different Website!!

Check out this site Muthamil.
I found this website different because of his(A Gentleman called Balachandran) opinions - sometimes it is amateurish and sometimes valid.

His articles are with pictures and it matches too.

One interesting thing is - I was not able to guess Mr.Balachandran's age - after his writings also!?

Another thing I noted about this person is he is Pro-Jayalalitha - Pro-ADMK!

Job market is looking really hot in southern districts of Tamil Nadu


The outsourcing game is really missing something these days in Metros. The cost of living and business has become expensive these days in the metros like Chennai, Hyderabad, Bangalore etc., for all the software businesses - which work on onsite and offshore model.

This model is nothing but have very few consultants onsite for coordination and get all of the work done by the offshore team in India. That seem to become expensive in Metros too.

So now, industry experts feel that - now industrialist and entrepreuners are looking for investing in Tier II and Tier III cities like Chennai, Coimbatore etc., which is wonderful!

There are so many good colleges in the southern districts of Tamil Nadu and it can definitely serve the man power needs very clearly.

In the next three years time - we are looking for good amount of placements(including campus placements) in Chennai, new industries - especially software businesses. If you are a software engineer - you can find a job in Chennai very shortly.

Many manufacturing and service industry companies are looking upto IT businesses to help in their businesses - for higher productivity and in more revenue generation.

Also about the retention of the employees - it is more about keeping them busy with challenging work - It is the only way you can keep them with your company, and prevent them from moving to the metros. We cannot get deposit or have them sign in contracts etc.,

Anyway, Going great for Tier II and Tier III cities like Chennai.

Made In Chennai Team is very happy about this.
