It is a moment of immense pride and gratitude that one of the world's renowned management institutions, Harvard Business School, has published a case study on Shree Ramkrishna Exports Pvt. Ltd.'s Human Resource Management practices. This recognition is not just a proud milestone for SRK but also for the entire diamond industry, highlighting the significance of strong people management practices—especially during challenging times. The diamond industry is currently facing one of its toughest crises, testing the resilience of businesses worldwide. However, at SRK, we firmly believe that by standing together, we can overcome any challenge. Our commitment to a people-first approach has helped us build a workplace where our SRK family members thrive, even in uncertain times.

Cloudy Skies, Dim Hopes: The Hidden Challenge Facing India's Solar Farms One of the annual reports that I eagerly look forward to , every year is the annual irradiation report put out by SolarGIS. They run an yearly analysis of solar irradiation levels and bring out the difference between GHI and the Long term Average (LTA). The report for India has been consistent in the last few years. GHI has been below LTA for the last few years for India. The last year (2024) has been no different. India (see pic below) is awash in green and blue colors indicating a sharp drop in GHI Vs LTA. Most of india experienced a 3%-10% drop in GHI marking another year of below average GHI. We have had one of the wettest monsoons in 2024 and while this may be beneficial for agriculture and water availability it is bad for solar energy production. The report goes on to say "Increased cloud cover, prolonged rainy periods, and extreme weather events reduced the availability of sunlight, particularly in regions like Central India and the Western Ghats. Regions such as Gujarat and Maharashtra – key hubs for solar power – experienced extended periods of below-average irradiation due to persistent cloud cover." A 10% drop in GHI, for example, can take solar plant generation to below P90 energy yield levels. This can trigger viability concerns, inability to service debt, breach financial covenants, resizing of debt and also can trigger minimum guaranteed generation metrics in the PPAs. This is climate change in action . It is staring at us in the face. Ironically the answer to this , is to add more clean energy to the Energy basket! Link to the full report in the comments below.

Are we seeing a repeat of 1945 when the post World War II global order was worked out at the Yalta conference between Stalin, Roosevelt and Churchill? Seems the three dictatorial leaders- Trump, Putin, Zi are going to carve up the world into distinct spheres of influence. Putin lords over Europe, Zi over Asia and assimilates Taiwan and South China Sea, and Trump dominates the American continent while integrating Greenland and Canada with his protege Netanyahu managing the Middle East! Déjà vu?
