About Author
A.K. BHATTACHARYA-AKB to every journalist-set the bar for business reporting as the chief of bureau at the Economic Times in the early 1990s, when economic reforms raged.

AKB then went on to become the editor of the Pioneer and Business Standard. He is now Business Standard's editorial director and a writer of two long-running columns.
