Son of the soil
 Unlike many others, armed with an M Tech from IIT-Mumbai and a management
degree from IIM-Ahmedabad, Ashank Desai did not migrate overseas. Instead he,
along with few of his friends, started Mastek from a small room in Nariman Point
in 1982. With revenues touching Rs 664 crore, the company is well on its way to
achieve the objective of becoming a successful global venture. The feathers in
the cap have definitely been the solution for the London Traffic system as well
as the insurance product, Elixir. Meanwhile, Desai has found excitement on
things that are closer to his heart, like his role as Nasscom chairman in
1995-96 and, more recently, lobbying with the Moily Committe on different issues
from STPI tax benefits to reservations in premier institutions. Page(s) 1
