COURIER COMPANIES IN INDIA
If one tries to find a courier company in India, one can find them in every nook and corner of the large part of India. The numbers of courier companies in India have seen a growth reminiscent of wildfire.
Many factors have contributed towards this huge spread. Economic growth, technological advancements, escalation of industrial sector, increase in export and import and large scale effect of liberalization are few of the major reasons. Now a day, courier companies are considered as vital component of any economy.
In the earlier days, the major courier players were centered in major metros because of their better connectivity with airport, ports and railways. But with India rapidly becoming a major economic force, now more and more companies are covering cities, towns and rural areas under their wide network. Despite that development, the large and medium sized companies are still based in the metro cities of India.

Service Categories:-
Courier services in India can be segregated in few categories.
Intra City Services:-Basically, it begins with intra-city services which are about speedy delivery of mails and goods within the city. Normally this is termed as surface cargo services where short distance and bulk loads are handled.
Surface mode service:-is performed through two ways: firstly, on road (by bus or vehicle) and secondly on track (by train) services. The products are normally delivered through door to door.
Air express and air cargo services:-Then, air express and air cargo services to send parcel to India. The air express service is usually a day faster compared to air cargo. They provide both national and international services.
MEDIA
PRINT MEDIA
The media industry can be categorized into the following categories; filmed entertainment, television, music, radio and print. As implied, many aspire to join this industry due to the high visibility and glamour associated with many of the top jobs. That said, the opportunities are many and varied, and not all focused on celebrity status, such as in the areas of mass communication, content development, animation, production and event management.
PRINT AND NEWSPAPERS :-India has four news agencies namely, the Press Trust of India (PTI), United News of India (UNI), Samachar Bharti and Hindustan Smachar.
Newspapers and magazines in India are independent and largely privately owned. About 5,000 newspapers, 150 of them major publications, are published daily in nearly 100 languages. Over 40,000 periodicals are also published in India. The periodicals specialize in various subjects but the majority of them deal with subjects of general interest.
GROWTH POTENTIAL :-The Indian entertainment and media sector is one of the fastest growing sectors in the economy, and its segments have all witnessed tremendous double digit growth in the last few years. The past 2 years were tumultuous, especially due to poor liquidity in the system for financing big projects for the big and small screen. However, with global indicators realigning themselves once again, the Indian media and advertising industry too looks poised to resume where it left off pre 1H 2008.
According to a 2009 report jointly published by the Federation of Indian Chambers of Commerce and Industry (FICCI) and KPMG, the media and entertainment industry in India is likely to grow at ~13 % CAGR over 2009-13, touching US$ 20 billion by 2013.
The key reasons favoring the rapid growth of the Indian entertainment and media sector are the demographic and economic factors buoying India’s development; with a majority of the population below the age of 35, and increasing disposable income in Indian households, the average spend on media and entertainment is likely to grow, according to the 2009 edition of PricewaterhouseCoopers report. In addition, advances in technology, increasing penetration of communication mediums, policy initiatives of the Indian government to increase FDI and the increased participation of private media companies have been the other key drivers of the industry.
As per current estimates the television industry is projected to grow by 22%, filmed entertainment by 16%, radio by 18% and the Indian advertising industry 61% over the next 3 years. Given the lucrative prospects of this segment, international media giants are all vying for a stake in the segment. In addition to domestic growth, the growing popularity of Indian content in the world market and South Asia in particular, has encouraged Indian entertainment industry players to also venture abroad to tap this booming segment; according to a report by CII-AT Kearney, the share of international markets in total box office collections is estimated to increase from 8% in 2006 to 15% in 2010.
FUTURE PROSPECTS :-The greatest opportunities naturally lie in those sub-areas that are expected to grow the fastest over the next few years, namely, in the development of digital distribution platforms for TV such as DTH, digital music platforms, digital media advertising (internet, mobile and digital signage) and global cinema content.
For new graduates, the industry poses great prospects for achievement given its growth trajectory. On the flip side, it is extremely fast-paced and stressful as well. Additionally, being creative on a tight schedule can be emotionally draining, especially because most of the work includes long hours and meeting stringent deadlines.
Electronic Media
The Media in India enjoys a great amount of freedom and is therefore flourishing. Whole new segments are opening up for this Rs 10,000 crore industry. Perhaps the most significant possibility is in India emerging as a back-end destination for digitising television and film content as well as managing video servers for global companies in the pay-per-view TV market. The previous year has been a landmark year for television broadcasting. Many new news channels like the two from NDTV and one each from TV Today and Star were launched. Television viewers were to enjoy much more freedom in metros with the rollout of Conditional Access System, which was quietly introduced in Chennai, but trouble was just round the corner. In Chennai there are very few customers for channels in languages other than Tamil and all Tamil Channels are free to air. As a result there was no objection, only people did not go for the top box. Delhi however has been a different story what with CAS being first put off, then implemented and then the total confusion on its status. The launch of a choice private FM radio stations has got the metro residents hooked on to the otherwise almost obsolete radio service. Lots of multiplexes opened across the country and many more are on the pipeline. Overseas studios were bullish on producing. Piracy however, continued to bother the Indian film and music industry. The Internet continues to grow.
ELECTRONIC MEDIA :-
Electronic media are media that use electronics or electromechanical energy for the end-user (audience) to access the content. This is in contrast to static media (mainly print media), which today are most often created electronically, but don't require electronics to be accessed by the end-user in the printed form. The primary electronic media sources familiar to the general public are better known as video recordings, audio recordings, multimedia presentations, slide presentations, CD-ROM and online content. Most new media are in the form of digital media. However, electronic media may be in either analog or digital format.
Although the term is usually associated with content recorded on a storage medium, recordings are not required for live broadcasting and online networking.
Any equipment used in the electronic communication process (e.g. television, radio, telephone, desktop computer, game console, handheld device) may also be considered electronic media.
USES:-Electronic media are ubiquitous in most of the developed world. As of 2005, there are reports of satellite receivers being present in some of the most remote and inaccessible regions of China. Electronic media devices have found their way into all parts of modern life. The term is relevant to media ecology for studying its impact compared to printed media and broadening the scope of understanding media beyond a simplistic aspect of media such as one delivery platform (e.g. the World Wide Web) aside from many other options. The term is also relevant to professional career development regarding related skill sets.

Commercial Complex
In the fast developing world these days the population is also increasing rapidly, so that the small towns and cities are changing into metropolitan cities there is scarcity of land in the cities and the business is growing and expanding very fast. Therefore, huge multi-storied buildings for commercial organizations are being constructed and the number of such complexes is increasing fast day by day. Production has increased very much, and the factories have to open their offices and show rooms at various places for marketing their products. Therefore buildings for these commercial purposes have become a necessity. Most of the factories appoint agents for the sale of their products. The business men have to establish an office of the agency, which is located mostly in some multi-storied commercial complex. In the construction of multi-storied commercial complexes all the principles of Vaastu-Shastra can not be followed so easily as in case of residential houses.
The builder of such complexes wants to utilize each and every corner of the space available for construction leaving any space open, without any construction there may not be profitable to the builder. Commercial complexes which are constructed in accordance with the rules of Vaastu-Shastra become popular and prove to be beneficial and profitable to the business that is carried on from that campus. Therefore commercial complexes should also be constructed according to the principles of Vaastu-Shastra. First of all only 2 square or rectangular plot should be selected. Buildings constructed on such plots are auspicious and beneficial to the owner, and help in successful and profitable business, While constructing building on the plot, enough open space should be left all around. There should be more open space on the north and east than that on the south and west respectively. Lawn and parking place is auspicious and profitable in the north-east directions. Slope of the land should be towards north-east direction. South-west portion should be raised. Tall and dense trees near the main building are not good. There is no harm if the trees are at some distance, Well or tube-well should be constructed in the north east portion, and overhead tank for storage of water should be constructed in north-west. Waste water drained out of the building and also the rain water should flow towards the north or east directions.
As far as possible the main gate should be kept in the north or east direction. Height of the main door should be a little more than that other doors in the building. Rooms for office etc. should be built in such a manner that rays of the sun may reach in each and every room and flow of fresh air is also maintained without any interruption. Construction of rooms should be so planned that most of the rooms may face towards north or east. Length and breadth of the office rooms should also be as per the Vaastu Shastra. Height of the upper storey's should be kept a bit less than that of the lower storey. If attached toilet is to be provided with the office room, it should be in the south-west portion of the room. If store room is required along with the office, it should be in the south or west part of the room. It is good to construct stairs in the south or west portion of the main building. Stairs in north-east portion of the building are not auspicious. Balcony should be provided in the north or east direction in each room. |
