Dear Sir, Thanks for taking time to meet with us. We would like to also thank Consul General of India at San Francisco, Mr. B. S. Prakash for arranging this meeting. As the Indian legal system considers all complaints filed by a wife as genuine by default, laws made to protect women from dowry harassment are rampantly being misused as a weapon to blackmail, extort money and seek revenge on NRI husbands and their India-based families. This is taking a huge toll on the personal and professional lives of Overseas Indians. Overseas Indians who unwittingly land in India for various reasons have been arrested, ill treated and exploited in the name of dowry laws.

Deodhar* Indian Institute of Management, Ahmedabad Abstract In April 2008, BCCI initiated Indian Premier League, a cricket tournament of Twenty-Twenty overs to be played among eight domestic teams. Team owners bid for the services of cricketers for a total of US$ 42 million. Not much is known about how the valuation of cricketers might have occurred. Given the data on final bid prices, cricketing attributes of players, and other relevant information, we try to understand which attributes seem to be important and what could be their relative valuations. We employ the bid and offer curve concept of hedonic price analysis and econometrically establish a relation between the IPL-2008 final bid prices and the player attributes.
