India, the home of 140 crore people, is also the largest democracy in the world. With the nation approaching its 76th anniversary, there is much to be proud of in terms of its achievements since independence. The GDP of India grew at an average rate of 5.5% during the past decade, making it the world's fastest-growing major economy. Considering the sluggish growth in the global economy that shows no signs of rebounding, India needs to step up to lead the way. The question remains as to how India, once synonymous with red tape, can become the new powerhouse of growth we expect it to be. This single important question is the theme of our conference this year, which has been appropriately worded as New India @ 2030: Tailoring for Sustainable Growth: Reform, Perform, Transform. 

"The Indian economy is projected to become the third largest in the world by 2030. India, however, must correct a few important things. Our National Conference aims to examine those issues that India must address if India is to be the economic powerhouse the world expects her to be. We are extremely fortunate that some of India's best minds and thinkers from science, technology, education, engineering, banking, and finance will enlighten us about what Reforms are required in order to deliver Performance that is consistent with our expectations that will transform the country's vast potential into reality," said Mr Dibyendu Chakraborty, Convenor of Conference Committee and former President of Jadavpur University Alumni Association, Mumbai Branch.
