  • Forcing “Good” and the Legitimation of Informal Power Philanthrocapitalism and Artistic Nation­Alism Among the Indian Business Elites
    IQAS Vol. 48 / 2017 1–2, pp. 55–75 Forcing “Good” and the Legitimation of Informal Power Philanthrocapitalism and Artistic Nation alism among the Indian Business Elites Tereza Kuldova Abstract Until recently, India’s wealthy were held in contempt and perceived with suspicion both by the general public and the media; newspaper articles about the greedy rich and their excesses pro- liferated. However, following the global financial crisis of 2008, magazines likeForbes India began aggressively pushing the idea of the generous and caring Indian business elites, a “force of good”; annual events such as the Forbes sponsored Philanthropy Awards and art and fashion galas for a good cause became popular and the notion of philanthrocapitalism was embraced by the elite. It is argued here that behind this development is a particular convergence of underly- ing legitimation crises, the first within the realm of business and the second within the realm of fashion and the arts. These then force the two realms into collaboration in a pursuit of the com- mon goal of social legitimacy, accumulation of symbolic capital and (re)production of the pow- er mystique of the elite. The article is grounded in extensive ethnographic fieldwork among the North Indian business and fashion elite, from 2008–2013. Keywords: India, elite, fashion, art, symbolic capital, philanthropy, business In 2003, a journalist covering an elite fashion show at the Hyatt Regency, the famous five star hotel in New Delhi, proudly proclaimed that “Om Shanti, a charity event by designers and artists, represents a new chapter in the trend of cre- ating luxury products for the wealthy with the aim of making life comfortable for the less privileged” (Tankha 2003).

  • Directors' Report
    DIRECTORS' REPORT DIRECTORS’ REPORT & MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS Your Directors feel privileged to present the 80th Annual Report on the business and operations of the Company along with the Audited Accounts for the financial year, ended March 31, 2017. ECONOMIC ENVIRONMENT In 2016, the growth in global economy was better but not good enough to turnaround the global economy. IMF estimated the global growth at 3.1% in 2016 and forecasts it to be 3.5% in 2017. Economic activity increased in the US as consumer spending and exports increased over last year. All European economies had slow but consistent growth in 2016. Within the developing economies, China’s slowdown stabilized at 6.7%, due to policy support, unlike the slowdown expected last year. Russia and Brazil also appear to be coming out of the doldrums. India continues to remain the poster boy of economic growth globally. Most of the global central banks are expected to hold on to interest rates, thereby keeping inflation under control and accelerate consumer spending. India is one of the fastest growing key economies in the world and is expected to grow at 7.4% in 2017-18. The current government has successfully introduced structural reforms such as demonetisation and GST to boost the Indian economy. Demonetisation had a mixed impact on the economy, however it promises to be a big step towards a digital economy. The most significant reform is GST that has amalgamated the different tax markets in India into one single tax market. It is the most fundamental and far reaching indirect tax reforms that have happened in decades.
