Moneycontrol put up this article on their website with the heading "BSE to suspend 37 companies on non-compliance issues". Here there are some bullets where they talk about when suspension will be removed from companies.

• In case, the company complies (to the satisfaction of the Exchange) with all the provisions of the Listing Agreement on or before Thursday, December 20, 2007, trading in securities of the company will be suspended for 5 days i.e. upto Friday, January 04, 2008.
• In case a company complies (to the satisfaction of the Exchange), with all the provisions of the Listing Agreement on or before Monday, January 14, 2008, the trading in securities of a company will be suspended for 30 days i.e. upto Tuesday, January 29, 2008.
• However, in case the company fails to comply with the provisions of the Listing Agreement, to the satisfaction of the Exchange on or before Monday, January 14, 2008, the suspension will continue till such time the Company complies with the procedure prescribed for revoking suspension in a scrip, or upto Tuesday, January 29, 2008 whichever is later.

In case of bullet 2 and 3, it is interesting to note on what will be the action by BSE in case a company complies with the provisions between January 15 and January 28.

Which Bollywood fan does not remember this famous scene from Sholay!

Gabbar: Kitne aadmi they
Kalia: Sardar, do
Gabbar: Wo do they aur tum teen, phir bhi laut aaye, kya soche sardar khus hoga, sabasi dega

And then he shoots the three of them one by one.

Today I was reading some quotes and came across this one from Adolf Hitler:

If you win you need not explain ... But if you loose, you should not be there to explain

How to win a proxy battle?

Around 4 years back in my old company, there was a huge hue and cry over the caterer who used to provide lunch to our office. The quality to say the least was pathetic. We all wanted it to change and requested the management for the same. The management decided to conduct a poll. The poll question was:

Please send an E-Mail if you want the caterer changed. No E-Mail would be considered that you are happy with the caterer.

As with any rebellion, there are a few leaders and the rest are followers.

In this case, the leaders of the revolution sent the E-Mail but the followers did not follow as it was not too important a cause.

The caterer continued, the stomach-ache continued BUT the hue and cry died. Only the leaders decided to go and eat outside more often than before.

Arz Kiya hai

Aaine ne jab tujhe dekha, hua teri tareef mein shaamil
Bola woh roop ko tere dekh kar, uff hai yeh kitna katil

Pehle Dharti Hili, Phir Biwi aur Finally Main

First the earth shook, then my wife and finally me. This basically summarizes my earthquake experience that hit Delhi today morning at 4:45 pm. As my cousin put it: Woh to bhabhi ne balance kar diya nahin to aaj to bas :)

My friends experience was a little different. First the earth shook, then he shook and then his wife finally had to scold him to stop shaking. Only if he had the power to shake the earth :)

Another colleague of mine who has come here from US for an year remembered the tips he was given in US in case an earthquake happens. They were requested to hide under something wooden so that nothing falls on them. Only in this case, his dining table would have been the first thing to break in case something happened.
