Shimir Satyendra is an oxford educated entrepreneur and is involved in developing an efficient supply chain management of information and resources for One Atom. He successfully completed the NUJS Diploma in Entrepreneurship Administration and Business Laws, in 2016. Over here he shares his experience with the Diploma course. Over to Shimir:
I have recently finished studying Social Entrepreneurship from the University of Oxford and pursuing my level 6 education in the field of Public Administration.
Currently, I am working as the Managing Partner of One Atom. One Atom is a venture engaged in the electronic commerce industry. We are developing an efficient supply chain management for the aggregated brands owned by the organization.
I came to know about NUJS Diploma course in Entrepreneurship Administration and Business Laws through an associate who is working with NUJS. I checked the course details online and liked the course structure and syllabus.
At that time I was developing a business model for a social venture. I joined the course to get a theoretical exposure of the laws governing our country’s businesses. Yes, my purpose was fulfilled.
Out of all the important things I learned, I found legal analysis, corporate governance and Companies Act to be useful in my day to day discussions and decision making.
As I mentioned above, the thorough knowledge of legal analysis, corporate governance, and Companies Act has helped me to consider necessary legal measures for our organization.
The modules are self-sufficient and maintain the neutrality necessary to engage learners from all the backgrounds and makes the learning easier for those without a legal background.
As an entrepreneur, the modules I benefitted the most are structuring a business, Taxation, basic accounting, import-export and customs duty, Corporate Governance, Raising Investment and Negotiating and Contract Drafting.
My future is work towards achieving our organizational goals and this course is certainly helping me in this direction.
I recommend this course to aspiring entrepreneurs, students and to anyone who is keen to learn about starting a business and legalities around it.
In this blog post, Debapriya talks about the laws applicable in the manufacturing & selling of cigarettes.
The history of smoking in India dates back to 2000 BC when cannabis was smoked. As mentioned in Atharvaveda, smoking of medicated leaves was practiced for medical benefits along with dhupa and homa as mentioned in the Ayurveda.
Also known as dhumrapana, it has been a practiced for more than 2000 years. It has evolved over time in the forms of pipes of various lengths, cigarettes, beedis, cigars, hookahs etc.
Tobacco smoke is enormously harmful to health. It is addictive in nature. Smokers have trouble breathing because smoking damages the lungs. Smoking causes a lot of coughing with mucous. Tobacco can cause emphysema (lung disease) and lung cancer. It seems hard to quit because elimination of nicotine causes craving for the smokers. Its harmful effects don’t only limit to the smoker but also to the people around. So, it is unhealthy for the society as a whole.
Hence, the regulating authorities have come up with laws and regulations on manufacturing and selling of tobacco products, including cigarettes.

‘Missiles May Kill Terrorists, But I Am Convinced That Good Governance Will Kill Terrorism’–Ban Ki- Moon, United Nations Secretary-General[1]

In this blog post, Chaminda Jayasundara guides our readers about how insurance companies make profit.
Insurance means a protection from monetary loss. Insurance helps to protect people against possible risks like fire, accident or burglary. This is mainly depending on the notion of the unforeseen that may happen in the future. Since the future cannot necessarily be presumed, it needs to protect the investments against the most foreseeable damages.
Insurance is a transfer of risk to a third party
This protection can be arranged by insurance companies, insurance brokers, attorneys, reserve analysts, etc. These institutions and personnel can collaboratively determine what types of losses any particular investment may face and how to protect the owners during and after a potential loss. Thus, insurance is a transfer of risk to a third party.

“Man has not lived before he learns about the things he once did not appreciate” by Grundtvig, a Danish philosopher
Education is the manifestation of idea and knowledge exchange facilitated through systematic instructions from generations to generations. The mode of delivery can be manifold. In the earlier times, it was through concentrated listening from the Gurus and memorizing. Then, with the advent of scripts and writing technologies that knowledge got embedded into leaves, stones, papers and books to today’s digital forms.
While accumulation of knowledge from the various available mediums is one facet, the other facet that mattered is its authentication and recognition in the society.
This need of the society gave way to the establishments called institutions and universities, awarding degrees of recognition for going through a well-researched path of knowledge accumulation. It was the delivery and the recognition that created the difference in the quality of education imparted and separated the masses into different classes of educated people.
One such example from great epic the Mahabharata is the story of Ekalavya, who being as smart and knowledgeable as Arjuna could not achieve similar fame and recognition as he didn’t belong to the institution of Guru Dronacharya.
