Special Lecture on Retailing in India
We had an interesting lecture on “Retailing in India” by Mr Gibson G. Vedamani on 28th July
He took us through a jou
ey of the Indian Retail Industry and then discussed about the plethora
of opportunities in the retail sector. He laid emphasis on the pace at which retail industry has
developed, the latest changes taking place in the Indian market, and its future prospects.
A traditional retail store was owner-operated in native formats, with poorly developed
technology. Today, we have larger formats with a wide merchandise mix. He also informed us
about the operational and promotional activities of major players in Indian Organized Retail,
like Bata, ShoppersStop, Wal-Mart, Tata- Trent, Croma, Big Bazaar, and Kirtilals.He also took
time to give us an idea of the key retail formats like Supermarkets, Department Stores and Malls.
Opportunities available in retail are New Store Planning, Operations, Consulting, and Market
Research.
Many retailers are expanding their operations and its time we students forayed into this dazzling
sector. Mr.Vedamani’s ‘beyond the box ‘thinking opened up our minds to the nitty-gritty of retail
industry.

ALUMNI MEET 2010 – Back to Nest…….was the first alumni meet of JSBians, which was organized on Sunday, February 28, 2010 in an effort to reunite the JSBians who have flown away to the promising land of corporate. The meet saw students from the first batch (2004) onwards, and it was reunion of sorts for all of us, since many were meeting for the first time since leaving their alma mater.
The event was inaugurated with lighting of the diya by Respected Vice Chairman Mr. T.N. Thirukumar and Respected CEO Mr. S. Mohan at Padmam Auditorium. Prof. R Chandrasekar and Prof. K. Srinivasan also joined the ceremony. This was followed by a welcome address, where stress was laid on saluting the vision of the founders of this institute, and reiterating the fact that the alumni were a wealth of immense value to the institute.
Next, it was time for rewinding……..there was a video show that chronicled and visually recited the growth of JSB since 2002. Those were nostalgic moments for the alumni, when they saw themselves in the various vantage points at JSB – under the Neem Tree, in Classrooms, in the playground. This evoked spontaneous applause, and they became nostalgic about their experience at JSB, and one could see the play of emotions on their faces, and it was a mixture of joy, awe and longing.
After a spicy lunch, the alumni enjoyed the game at Green Lounge of Auditorium, besides at the new football ground. It was highly rejuvenating to see the otherwise sombre and serious corporate shenanigans frolic in the fun, and there was laughter all over. Winners of the game were given and many walked away with mementos, flower, and refreshing thoughts.
In the evening, all the alumni moved to the auditorium for witnessing the amazing performance in the form of cultural events by students. The eventful and exhilarating day was came to an end with the vote of thanks to Vice Chairman, CEO, alumni, faculty, staff and students. The alumni were highly pleased and looked for such events in the coming years.
The meet went on till 8:00 pm as everyone had their fill of rumali rotis, shahi paneers, and other delicacies…….and they bade us goodbye, with their hearts and minds brimming with the pleasant thoughts of the ALUMNI MEET 2010.
