It will be a good work For others.
I am not quite sure if this honour is well deserved by TATA as belied by experiences on the ground. I surrendered my phone back to BSNL more than five years back and I am yet to get back my refund. I had originally paid Rs. 30,000. If BSNL shares the TATA brand of ethics, they would have come back to me ages back, instead of adopting this catch-me-if-you-can approach. I now plan to approach the Consumer Court to get this sorted out, as reminders have been to no avail, so far. I hope Ratan TATA reads this.

huh?. BSNL does NOT share the TATA brand name.its owned by your govmint, you doofus. your tax money is funding the bad service.
For decades this company has a reputation of most ethical company. Even though their steel plant is located in wild land in Bihar. They have thrived by sticking to their no nonsense ethical standard.
But I have heard not so good things about INFOSYS. Is it true about INFOSYS ?
founders are not reputable. They do all kinds of financial manipulation just like Anil Ambani to avoid paying tax. And despite having such huge amounts of money, they donate very little to charitable houses. They remind me of Ambani, maybe a little more classier that is all. But in essence they are also scheming marwari type organization
