In 1990 as a fresh graduate, I quickly realized that successful businessmen spent much of their time in Delhi because thelicense raj ensured companies did not have customers but hostages. In 1996, as a fresh MBA seeking advice on becomingan entrepreneur, a license-raj era tycoon told me to forget my western concepts of Return on Equity but think aboutreturn before equity. A lot of pre-1991 entrepreneurship was sustained by the toxic troika of the license raj (lowcompetition), IPO market control (equity scarcity) and nationalized banks (excess leverage).

The Supreme Court has said that no firecrackers are to be sold in the Delhi and nearby NCR until November 1, 2017. Thisis ostensibly to measure how much air quality declines during Diwali in the capital city. Those who have been living in thecity for decades can tell you that air quality in and around Delhi following Diwali goes for an absolute toss. Rampant andunrestricted use of firecrackers leads to massive increase in noxious sulphurous gases, nitrogen oxides and huge amountof particulate matter. However, banning anything is not the solution. Those determined to make a noise will find ingeniousways of smuggling them into the city and its suburbs, much like how those who want to drink in Ahmadabad and Barodahave figured how to stock up. The ban could, however, lead to reduction in the amount of firecrackers burned by casualusers. Others, particularly those who care about the pollution in the city and how it impacts their quality of life, willundoubtedly welcome this decision. While campaigns in schools telling children to ask their families to ease up onfirecrackers worked initially, things seem to have gone back to normal.
