Example Sentence: “The infotech wave is in many ways exactly like what TVS does – ethical businesses, organised people, engineers, manpower at the doorstep… I think TVS did miss that bus. Today, even if not a $4-$5 billion business, we should have had at least a $1 billion business in the knowledge sector,” admitted Mr. Venu Srinivasan, the Chairman of TVS Group.
