Abstract | : |
The increasing cases of Covid-19 (Corona virus) resulted towards
lockdown not only in India but all over the world. The movement of
traffic internationally was closed. The nationwide lockdown which was
imposed by Government of India brought a lot of changes in the lifestyle
of people. Earlier, many studies have reported about the financial impact
of COVID-19 on tourism industry & the correlation between COVID-19
and trends in tourism industry. The idea is to relate those variables with
onslaught of Covid-19 and to understand, more long-term impact that
COVID-19 will have on travellers' perception towards tourism. An
online survey was conducted to collect primary data in which a
questionnaire was circulated to travellers all over India. The results of

Name | : | Supply Chain Performance Measurement Methodology for COVID-19 Disruption Recovery- Natural Gas Retailing in India |
Author | : | Asim Prasad,Anita Kumar |
Abstract | : |
The coronavirus(COVID-19)pandemic disruption adversely impacted
the Supply Chain for Natural Gas(NG) retailing, jeopardizing
committed targets for thesocio-economic transition toa gas-based
economyleading to inclusive growth in India. Furthermore,
Omicron'srapid spread is a cause of global concern. This research aims
to develop a conceptual Supply Chain Performance (SCP) measurement
methodology for reducing recovery time post exogenous disruption.
Exploratory research involving an integrative literature review identifies
different approaches, frameworks, models, and techniques for Supply
Chain PerformanceMeasurement(SCPM). Analysis reveals that the
application of DMAIC improves the reliability of Supply Chain
Management (SCM) functional processes during disruption recovery
while synthesizing the Balanced Scorecard (BSC) with Triple Bottom
Line(TBL) accounting approach provides a rigorous robust method to
represents financial, social, and environmental performance goals.
Accordingly, findings present a methodology with nine systematic steps
to evaluate performance by City Gas Distribution(CGD)entities to
accelerate NG retail consumption and speed up network expansion to
meetthe growing clean energy demand of the urban populace.
Additionally, anIndian model for transition to a gas-based economy is
also presentedto distinguish competing goals to harmonize growth with
environmental sustainability and ecological modernization. Though
SCP is a mature concept, the literature on its methodology during
disruption recovery for NG retailing is scanty. Hence, the proposed
action-oriented SCPM methodology has practical implications for
improving SCP, contributing uniquely to the retail SCM domain for NG.
Its application will instigate industry practitioners to review Supply
Chain Management (SCM) processes and strategies to improve service
effectiveness and delivery efficiency.

index disclosure items: whether companies are providing evidence
regarding SDG disclosure practices in their financial statements. For
extracting Information regarding SDG disclosure practice from
companies' annual reports add a vocabulary. To put it another way, we
collect the 4 words that come before and collect the 5 words that follow
the search terms to create a standard vocabulary. Only words that appear
in the context of the search phrases are included in the outcomes. The cos
connection between each financial statement and the topic terminology,
which runs from 0 to 1, is a rate of the SDG content inherent incidence in

Name | : | Currency Risk Exposure in the Stock Markets of Emerging Economies |
Author | : | Abha Mohan,Dr. Tomy Mathew,Dr. Roy Sam Daniel |
Abstract | : |
The growing interdependence of capital markets has increased the
global investors' interest in the exchange rate fluctuations. The study
tries to examine whether the currency risk exposure is significant in the
stock markets of emerging economies, considering the exchange rate
regime in the country. The study uses the International Capital Asset
Pricing Model to explore the association between currency risk
exposure and stock market return in emerging countries. The model
considers major stock indices of the selected emerging countries for the
stock market return, Morgan Stanley Capital International Emerging
Market Index for market return and Real Effective Exchange Rate
(REER) indices of the individual economies to assess the exchange rate
risk exposure. The significance of currency risk exposure in the stock
market is estimated using panel data regression. The study concluded
that the stock markets of emerging countries are significantly exposed to
currency risk, regardless of the country's exchange rate regime. But the
exchange rate regime followed in a country significantly influences the
nature of the association between the stock index and exchange rate.

found that there is lack of studies examining knowledge sharing
behaviour and learning style effect on leadership effectiveness. This
study will contribute by establishing the link between knowledge
sharing behaviour, learning style and leadership effectiveness
simultaneously. Also this study will be able to use by training and
development of companies to design the training program to enhance,
knowledge sharing and to adopt appropriate learning style to improve
leadership. In this study, it was proposed to examine the effect of
learning style and knowledge sharing behaviour on leadership
effectiveness among leaders simultaneously, while in the past
knowledge sharing was conducted to examine the effect on leadership
effectiveness, while there was a lack of literature on learning style and
leadership effectiveness.

Name | : | Dynamics of Disguised Unemployment in the Unorganised Manufacturing Sector of West Bengal |
Author | : | Ujjwal Seth |
Abstract | : |
In this paper attempts have been made to calculate disguised unemployment in the unorganised manufacturing
sector in West Bengal. For this, the concept of sub-vector efficiency as developed by Ray(2005) is used. Two
rounds of NSSO data – 67 th and 73 rd are used to estimate the disguised unemployment. The surplus labour was
calculated for OAE and Establishment firms separately for rural and urban sectors and different zones
comprising of different districts of West Bengal. Wide variation of surplus labour across the sector, industry and
zones are found. Again, in between two periods, the extent of surplus labour is found to be increased. Lack of
employment opportunity in other sector may be a reason for this situation. Some urgent action is required to
improve the performance of this sector.
