Leaderspeak: Challenges India Inc faces in the future

Business Today speaks with Indian business leaders about the challenges their companies face in the coming days.

Bhaskar Bhat, MD, Titan

The biggest challenges facing the company are to be able to find and develop leadership talent and to embrace digital technology and sustainability.

GV Prasad, MD and CEO, Dr Reddy's

A key challenge in the next three to five years will be to finance the company's organic and inorganic growth in a capital-efficient manner.

HM Bangur, MD, Shree Cement

"We are on a sound footing and volumes are growing. I do not see any major challenge specific to the company over the next five years."

KK Maheshwari, MD at Grasim, and Business Director of Pulp and Fibre at Aditya Birla Group

The market conditions are challenging due to overcapacity in world markets, largely in China. Another challenge is to keep the organisation focused and motivated during the difficult period.

Chirayu R. Amin, Chairman and MD, Alembic Pharma

One of the biggest challenges is to ensure that the company consistently complies with international quality standards. Also, ensuring that productivity and throughput from research teams keep improving to enable the company to have a solid product portfolio.

Zubair Ahmed, MD, GSK Consumer Healthcare

"Today's consumers are far more aware of the importance of good health in achieving their goals in this increasingly competitive world. GSK is perfectly poised to meet this need and help in building a healthier India. The challenge, therefore, is our greatest opportunity."
