Improvement Project of Science Construction CS

Abstract Science Construction’s business is in planning, developing and building road projects. The major of its clients are municipalities, city governments, and other public sector entities. While the bankruptcy rates for these clients is very low, when economic downturns happen, their ability to pay in a timely fashion also suffers. This leads to businesses such as Science Construction needing to take on additional debt and to find creative methods in order to stay afloat during times of recession. Methods such as selling accounts receivables at discounted rates and taking larger lines of credit through banks and other lending institutions are some of the ways organizations can remain viable when their cash inflows have turned into a trickle. Science Construction is asking the Turkish Courts to postpone their bankruptcy proceedings for a year while they attempt to restructure. Through this, suggestions such as forcing shareholders to pay their debt to the organization, gaining credi

Gold is Gold for ever!

The global recession is not going to recede soon and the current equity rally is likely to fizzle out; the several experts opine this. The trillion dollars package announced by US in G20 summit to counter current global recession may induce inflationary trend in the market all over the world. In this never seen before situation, the obvious question is where to invest? In any situation when the economy of any nation went tumble tosser, gold used to be considered as safe haven for investors. Till recent months this has been true for Indian investors but with dollar price rising high; the gold price is too high to attract investment. Do you know year 2008 was a year of gold! The Indian gold exchange traded funds (ETFs) have given returns around 26.5% ; the highest amongst any asset class that gives return, during financial year 2008-2009. That to when the global economy has been reeling under the pressure of recession.
Now, the gold price touching the new high $1002.2 per ounce during February 2009 now has come down to $864 on 17th Apr. As reports suggest if gold price in the international market comes down below $855, then it may go down further by another $40-50. At that point fresh purchases can be made; in fact there are some commodity experts who feel gold is attractive for investment when it hovers around $855-860 band.
However, this blogger feels gold is gold forever, even when it is old.

CHITTARANJAN IN 50s

Hi, Everybody, sometime some of you keep me asking about my days and time at Chittaranjan. This is natural, after all there are gaps of decades between most of you and me ! This has prompted me with an idea of writing this to share my old good days with those of you who are interested. Indian Railway under the British colonial rule was another group of companies with different British Managements. Since the different railway networks under all of them were used mutually for their own benefits. At places, different railway companies had the facilities of repairing and maintenance of their locomotives and passenger and goods carriages. To name a few, like Anda, Adra, Howrah, Liluah, Mughal sarai, Jhajha , these are they places I mention since they are quite closed by our loving Chittaranjan. The locomotives were imported from Manchester, England and few from Canada and Australia , all under the Union Jack. A good number of railway operational staffs were anglo Indians,
