TIL TALKMESSAGEDear Reader,Welcome to another edition of TILTalk, our in-house magazine.“Be Optimistic” was what our Prime Minister Dr Manmohan Singh saidwhile speaking at a recently concluded national conference, urgingIndian industry to avoid getting swamped by negativism. However inreality India had a very difficult year in 2012-13. GDP growth fell toits lowest in the last decade with investments barely trickling in. Ason date we see little linkage between reforms, plans and outcomesand the outlook continues to be cautious. Although India is expectedto regain economic momentum in the long term, the short termconcerns on macroeconomic and domestic market growth wouldcontinue unless the policy announcements are fast converted to rapidimplementation.2012-13 was one of the most challenging years for TIL in the recent past. Despite the tough times and mixed performance,we witnessed some pockets of accomplishments which I am pleased to share with you in this edition of TILTalk.At TIL, CSR initiatives continue as always, as is evident in the story called The Joy of Vision. As an organization we havealways believed that CSR is not an option but a requirement. At the end of the day CSR to us goes a long way in definingthe character of a company.The story on High Frequency Screens demonstrates how TIL and Astec partnership brings Indian customers sustainablesolutions in face of the river- sand mining ban. Our esteemed customer Mr. Raju Thomas’s views expressed in the storyreinforces the fact.That TIL takes safety very seriously for its employees, as well as for customers and job sites was manifest recently whenwe were declared ‘Winner’ at the Safety Week organized by Tata Steel- SEB where TIPL [Subsidiary of TIL] runs MARCsince 2003.I am happy to share that SAP@ TIPL – the ERP project we undertook in 2011 is going LIVE in June. This would improveour efficiency, process standardization and adaptability to rationalize cost, and create better customer experience.There are many more news and articles on our customer service, training and events including our regular fun and healthpage, all created to enhance and make your experience with TIL an enjoyable one.Happy Reading!Sumit MazumderVice Chairman & Managing Director2OUR NEWS VIEWS & EVENTS
The Joy Of VisionEye Camps and Free Cataract Surgery (IOL) for Underprivileged Senior CitizensA visually impaired person who is also below poverty line (BPL), facesserious social challenges. Not only visual impairment interferes with dailyactivities it also deters one from gainful employment. TIL, realizing this asa concern for the underprivileged, organized eye camps in associationwith Helpage India for BPL senior citizens providing free eye checkups,as well as Cataract Surgery with IOL (Intraocular Lens) implant for selectcandidates. Last year 13 Eye Camps were conducted across 7 locationswhere 1060 elderly citizens were given free checkups and consultationsby qualified ophthalmologists. The locations were chosen aroundGarden Reach and Kamarhatty areas close to where TIL operates.As we follow strict medical norms and ensure absolute safe practice,out of 1060 senior citizens screened, only 200 were qualified for IOLsurgery. The surgery took place at Susrut Eye Foundation & ResearchCenter, Kolkata.TIL TALKGone are the days when organizationswere expected to simply create jobs,deliver goods and services, increaseshareholder wealth, and demonstrategoodwill to the community throughphilanthropy. Today, responsible andsuccessful leaders know that anorganization cannot be sustainable oreconomically viable over the long termif it doesn’t accept its responsibilitiestowards society and environment.CSR, therefore, is much more thancompliance or ethical conduct, it goesa long a way in defining the characterof a company.Our CSR belief stems from thefact that real commitment comeswhen communities are enabled forsustained developments. Our initiativesrange from health and education towomen empowerment. At TIL we callit - touching lives and making adifference.TIL- Helpage India Cataract Surgery Camp for BPL senior citizens in progressCOVER STORYOUR NEWS VIEWS & EVENTS 3
