College Student in USA

bajaj · Jul 17th, 2007, 08:12

I'm a college student in US. Once i graduate i would like to move back to Mumbai. I have family there and they have lots of connections (networking, ect.). My question is what could a young college student do as far as their own business goes? what would be a good financial turnout rate. thanks for any help.

What is your background as far as bsiness is concerned? Any entrepreneurial activity.?

hey Bajaj..how can one say what would be a good Financial Turnout rate Or what business would be good...

This is not a business or economics forum..even though people still might have knowledge but this is a 'TRAVEL FORUM'..

Yeah..if you were looking to enter the travel trade then you might get some tips though..

bajaj is hardly the first poster to ask about business opportunitites in India and not about which is the best Himalayan trekking service, but I think the real problem is that bajaj, you need to be more specific. There's no way for us to really answer the question, "what would be a good financial turnout rate [for a business in India]". We could be talking about anything from a paan-wallah stand to Infosys. What are your skills? What are your interests?

It depends on your lifestyle..a simple fan-tube life..cooking your own meals..commuting from office to work and back..a mobile phone..I a simple life can easily be lead in Rs.5000-8000 or even less...

and you can go to any limit you want...
