India's software cracked a hardware puzzleWhen three Bombay-IITians decided to turn their fun innovations in drones into a business of building and selling them it almost didnâ€™t get off the ground. Their Drona Aviation ran into one air pocket after next. First, there were no clear guidelines the flying of drones in India at the time, effectively meant a ban, and then a Chinese products saw local players crash-land.To regain some altitude, Dronaâ€™s Prasanna Shevare, Apurva Godbole Dinesh Sain tried multiple routes â€" including providing their drones to the local fire brigade and the Coast Guard â€" before turning the company into a DIY platform everyone from engineering students interior designers can build customised solutions with its hardware and software tools. In the past two years, Drona has sold 2,300 drones. It is battling investor indifference and regulator sloth to build a viable hardware business in India. It isnâ€™t easy. Indiaâ€™s hardware companies have, over the past couple of decades, flattered to deceive. Starting with laptops and, recently, mobile phone handsets, companies have promised much, but delivered little. Stymied by slow regulatory approval and paucity of funds, many firms shut shop. The rapid growth of China as a hardware manufacturing destination hasnâ€™t helped either, as companies have voted with their wallets and focused on making their products there.
The good, bad & ugly of India's data blueprintTwo days after the government handed over to the Central Bureau of Investigation the Cambridge Analytica case â€" where social media giant Facebook was accused of snooping on personal data of some 50 million users â€" the final touches on a draft data protection bill has stopped short of ticking all the boxes.The bill does not do enough to protect evolving privacy rights of you and I, policy wonks and lawyers say. Other areas that have been flagged are cross-border data flows, withdrawal of consent, making all offences cognisable and non-bailable and a section allowing processing of personal data for functions of the state.The Personal Data Protection Bill, 2008, and a report were submitted by a committee led by former judge BN Srikrishna on July 27. The submission was keenly awaited by all for its implications on data privacy. But the bill, a year in the making, hasnâ€™t done enough, say privacy advocates.
Developing petrol engines to counter drop in diesel vehicle demand:M&MUtility vehicles major Mahindra & Mahindra is developing petrol engines for its product line-up to counter drop in sales of diesel models over the last few years due to high taxation.In its Annual Report for 2017-18, the Mumbai-based auto major said it is also working towards building cost effective BS-VI compliant solutions for its diesel engine portfolio. "Higher taxation on diesel vehicles is affecting their sales, which have declined from 58 per cent of total sales in 2012-13 to 40 per cent in 2017-18," M&M said. The company is in the process of developing and introducing petrol engines across most of its products and segments, it added. With BS-VI emission norms slated to come into effect from April 1, 2020, prices of both petrol and diesel vehicles are set to go up. However, pricing pressure on diesel vehicles is expected to be higher which could further impact sales of such vehicles in the domestic market. M&M sells various SUVs including XUV 500, Scorpio, TUV 300 and KUV 100 in the domestic market and the company has been in the process of introducing petrol variants across its product portfolio. M&M said it is working to strengthen its UV portfolio through launch of new products and refreshed variants, as the UV market is witnessing intense competition with a total of 21 models launched in the last 3 years, accounting for 55 per cent of total UV sales. The company said it has a strong product pipeline to be rolled out in the near future and is continuously investing in new product development, technology upgrades and increasing its distribution network. M&M sold 2,33,915 utility vehicles in 2017-18, a rise of 5.1 per cent as compared with 2016-17. The company said its farm equipment sector is also working towards developing innovative solutions to keep the cost increase for tractors to a minimum. The likely introduction of new emission norms (TREM IV) for tractors will call for additional investments by OEMs, increasing the material costs for tractors, it added.
TV prices of 32 inch and above may go up from next monthTelevision makers are mulling to increase prices of their products of 32 inch and above sizes from next month to offset the adverse impact of depreciating rupee against US dollar. While Haier is planning to increase the prices by up to 5 per cent, Sony and Panasonic are closely monitoring the situation. Meanwhile, the manufacturers are reducing the prices of TV sets sized up to 68 cm (27 inch) by up to 8 per cent to extend the GST benefit to consumers. Consumer electronic major Haier is planning to increase the prices of its TV sets from the third week of August to ward off the higher panel costs. "We would have to increase price between 4 to 5 per cent probably from the third week of August," said Haier India president Eric Braganza. "With hardening of the US dollar, international prices (of TV Panel) is going up and so we are forced to increase price," he added. According to him, the international prices of 30 to 40 inch screen has gone up. Panasonic is also expecting a hike in the TV sets very soon. "On televisions sized 32 inches and above we expect a price hike due to increase in TV panel prices and the impact of exchange rate; having said that we are closely observing the market to evaluate the pricing," said President and CEO, Panasonic India and South Asia Manish Sharma. He further added that the company is absorbing maximum costs so that the consumers are not impacted much. Sony is also closely watching the situation and will take any decision over price hike at an appropriate time. "The depreciating rupee is a matter of concern. We are closely watching the situation at the moment and will take a decision at the appropriate time," said Sony India Head of Sales Satish Padmanabhan. On being asked that whether the price hike would affect the business, Braganza said: "Main bulk of the market is 32 inch to 40 inch screen size, which price is going up. It is going to effect the business sure".
