ICICI bank signs MOU with Orissa government on a Regional hub

Bhubaneswar- Cuttack- Puri, ICICI 3 Comments »

Slowly more news about this is coming out. [Financial Express, Kalinga Times, Tathya.in 1,2,3 ]. Following are some salient points culled from various news articles. (More will be added as more news report come in.)

  • Financial Express: The hub, which will come up on a built-up area of 1.5 million sqft n the Chandaka Industrial Estate of the city, will act as a centre or convergence of the bank’s activities, like call centre, ack-office operations for banking & insurance as well as sales and administration.
  • Financial Express: The proposed hub would accommodate approximately 10,000 people in a phased manner and have the capacity to scale up the operations in future to a potential of 15,000 manpower.
  • Fiancial Express: “ICICI Bank selected Bhubaneswar for its eastern regioanal hub after choosing Hyderabad and Ahmedabad for the southern and western hubs, respectively, because of the initiative taken by the Orissa government,” said Kamath. He said the first phase of the hub would be fully operational in two years and the second phase will be completed in the next three years.
  • Kalinga Times: In order to ensure availability of skilled local manpower, the bank has already started working in a partnership model with two universities in Orissa. In this regard, a separate MoU was signed between the bank and Utkal niversity on the occasion for offering various skill enabling and vocational courses in the domains of banking, finance and insurance. … Later in the day, the bank signed another MoU with KIIT University for running of an e-Learning Centre like the one to be run by Utkal University.
  • Tathya.in: Naveen also asked Kamath to facilitate the Institute of Entrepreneurship Development (IED) into a national level Centre of Excellence.ICICI has played a crucial role in developing EDI at Ahemadabad to a national level institute.Kamath promised to look into the matter, said sources.

ICICI Bank will collaborate with Utkal University in setting up courses in banking and insurance

Banks, Bhubaneswar- Cuttack- Puri, INSURANCE, Khordha Comments Off on ICICI Bank will collaborate with Utkal University in setting up courses in banking and insurance

Tathya reports that ICICI Bank will collaborate with Utkal University to start courses in banking and insurance. I guess this will be mutually beneficial to both Utkal University and ICICI Bank. The later will get a good pool to hire its employees.

ICICI Bank Regional hub in Bhubaneswar: to employ 15,000 eventually

Banks, Bhubaneswar- Cuttack- Puri, ICICI, Khordha, Uncategorized 1 Comment »

Tathya reports that ICICI Bank will sign an MOU with Orissa government to set up a call center and back office operation for banking and insurance. This center to be located in Infocity will eventually hire 15,000 graduates from normal colleges. In terms of the number of people they will hire, this is a big deal; much bigger than the overhyped POSCO or Mittal deals. ICICI Bank will not use our mines; will not pollute our atmosphere; will not displace people; and will only need 12 acres and yet will hire 15,000 people. Orissa should be going after more such companies and less of the metal and mining kind.

From http://pib.nic.in/release/release.asp?relid=28142

PRAFUL PATEL ANNOUNCES NAME MASCOT, HEADQUARTERS, LOGO & LIVERY OF MERGED AIRLINE


The Minister of Civil Aviation, Shri Praful Patel today officially announced that after the merger of Air India and Indian, the new entity will be known as ‘Air India’. While the new company will have its registered office in New Delhi, its corporate office will be in Mumbai and its office for domestic operations as well as the Strategic Business Units will be mostly based in Delhi. The Mascot of the merged airline will be the Maharaja. The new livery and logo of the merged airline were also unveiled by the Minister today.As ‘Air India’ is a globally and nationally recognized brand name, as well as the designated airline in international bilaterals – the ‘AI’ code being available only to the existing name, it has been decided that the merged entity would continue with the same name. The design components of the new logo and livery have been drawn after merging some of the current features of both Air India and Indian Airlines.

The logo of the new airline is a Flying Swan with the Konark Chakra placed inside it. The Flying Swan has been morphed from Air India’s characteristic logo, ‘The Centaur’ whereas the ‘Konark Chakra’ is reminiscent of Indian’s logo.

The new logo will feature prominently on the tail of the aircrafts. Individually the Konark Chakra will also feature on all the engines of the aircrafts. The choice of colours namely red for “Flying Swan” and orange for “Konark Chakra” are meant to signify vigour and advancement. Further the colours also have a strong association with two carriers thereby retaining the earlier imagery of traditional hospitality and service.

While the aircraft will be ivory in colour, the base will retain the red streak of Air India. Running parallel to each other will be the Orange and Red speed lines from front door to the rear door, subtly signifying the individual identities merged into one. The brand name ‘Air India’ will run across the tail of the aircraft.

The images of the new livery and logo is available at www.pib.nic.in.

Kingfisher to fly twice daily between Bhubaneswar and Kolkata

Airports and air connectivity Comments Off on Kingfisher to fly twice daily between Bhubaneswar and Kolkata

Business standard reports that Kingfisher airlines (schedule) will now fly twice daily between Bhubaneswar and Kolkata. Until recently Kingfisher only flew BBSR-Hyderabad direct and BBSR-Delhi with a stop in Hyderabad. With this addition there will be five daily flights between BBSR and Kolkata (1 Indian, 2 Air Deccan and 2 Kingfisher). Both Air Deccan and Kingfisher flights are scheduled such that one can go from BBSR to Kolkata or Kolkata to BBSR and do business and return the same day.

[Thanks to Deba Nayak in ornet for the tip on the above.]

As per the May 2007 schedule Air Sahara, which has been bought by Jet Airways, ceases to fly between Bhubaneswar and Hyderabad. It will now only fly between Bhubaneswar and Delhi. Thus the number of daily flight connections between BBSR and Hyderabad reduces to 2 (Kingfisher and Air Deccan).

Boost in Poultry farming in Orissa

Poultry farming 3 Comments »

Telegraph reports that the Orissa government under the able guidance of the Veternary director Bishnupada Sethi has introduced several schemes for the growth of poultry farming. Following are some snippets from that article.

… Value added tax (VAT) charged on maize and broken rice used for preparation of poultry feed would be reimbursed by the finance department. Similarly, the cooperation department has been asked to waive a per cent of the market tax levied on eggs, chicks and birds, brought to the regulated market committee yards,” said the Orissa veterinary director, Bishnupada Sethi, while talking to The Telegraph today.

Insurance premium for each poultry farm has, in the meanwhile, been revised from Rs 4 per layer bird to a meagre 30 paisa, the veterinary director added. Also, the Orissa electricity regulatory commission has been asked to reduce the tariff for poultry.

… The state’s production has increased from 12 lakh per day in 2005-06 to 32 lakh during 2006-07.

But still there seems to be a lacuna as the state’s present demand stands at 64 lakh eggs per day.”

Samaja reports that the government will help establish one chicken hatchery in each district and its aim will be to produce 1 crore eggs per day.

    • Editor’s comment [July14’05]: Brahmani River crosses the South Eastern railway line at Jenapur which is 8 kms from Jakhapura where branchline goes to Daitari and on to Bansapani. Jajpur Keonjar Rd is another 7 kms away where one of the National highway [Panikoli-Keonjhar segment of 215] passes and 15 km upstream of Jenapur NH 200 [Chandikhol-Sukinda segment of 200] passes. The state government should connect NH 200 to Jenapur to NH 215, and plan to make Jenapur a major transporation hub, as it will be a unique location. Talcher is another possibility for a transportation hub. At Talcher the rail line, the waterway and NH 42 cross. While Talcher can be a transportation hub, Jenapur could be both a transportation hub as well as a tourism hub where cruis eships can stop.
