Abstract: India and United Arab Emirates have shared a strong trade and cultural links over a period of time. Trade between India and UAE started long back when these two countries traded some of the traditional items with each other. However, India and UAE trade relation took speed when H.H. Sheikh Zayed Bin Sultan Al Nahyan came to power in 1966 and a federation was formed in 1971. The very foundation of INDO-UAE trade tie’s can be traced to the fact that since 1975 INDIA has signed Twenty-FIVE agreement’s and MoU’s with UAE including some of the important agreements like Cultural cooperation agreement(1975), civil aviation agreement(1989, revised in 2014), Double Tax Avoidance agreement DTAA (1992), Anti-Trafficking(1994), Information Cooperation agreements (2000) and the most recent MoU in the field of renewable energy cooperation. These Bi-Lateral agreements and MoU’s have cemented the trade ties between both the countries. Also INDIA and UAE are now inching towards an all weather friendship which would help India to secure it’s interest in the region. And INDIA-UAE friendship would provide a good adhesive for this cohesion. The case study will also talk about the areas where there is a desperate need of improvement and what are the steps taken by the India Government in various fields including the tax policies, balance of payments, modes of payments etc. And how, UAE can prove to be the largest trade partner of India in the next decade.

Using the annual time series data for the period 1980 to 2010 the paper investigates the long-run and causal relationship between savings and economic growth in Lesotho using the ARDL bounds test approach. As per the cointegration results, there exists a long-run relationship between savings and economic growth in Lesotho. Granger causality results, however, indicate that savings precede and drive economic growth in Lesotho, both in the short-run and long-run, and not the other way round. Hence policies aimed at enhancing economic growth in Lesotho should stimulate and spur meaningful savings levels.

Abstract: Asia has been a major contributor to the global GDP. It is a home for many developing nations that have huge demand and are powerhouse of opportunities for the investors, increasing its contribution to global trade Y-o-Y. FDI-inflows data reveals that Asia is attracting more capital inflows than any other continent. It also has two of its nations in Top 10 rankings of Business friendly economies.

But, everything has its own advantages and disadvantages. Just to count one of its disadvantages, it can also cost India with increase in terrorism from Afghan surroundings that are speculated to have military camps.

Abstract: Employee retention is the key aspect that plays a major role in the success of the hotel industry. As the hotel industry solely depends on their employees, it has high turnover rates and so retaining them has become a major challenge. As there are many hotels in India, even the high performing employees are immediately moving to another job when they feel dissatisfied with the current position. Due to these reasons, this theoretical paper investigates the factors that result in low employee retention. This paper argues about the factors that are critical in influencing the employees to leave their jobs. They are employee misalignment, below average pay, career work-life imbalance, etc. Thus, hotel management should frame appropriate retention strategies to reduce turnover rates with utmost commitment as it will bring a long-term benefit to the organisation.

Abstract: No organization has a choice of whether to train its employees or not, the only choice is that of methods. The primary concern of an organization is its viability, and hence its efficiency. There is a continuous environmental pressure for efficiency, and if the organization does not respond to this pressure, it may find itself rapidly losing whatever market share it has. Training imparts skills and knowledge to the employees in orders that they contribute to the organization’s efficiency and be able to cope with the contract pressures of changing environment. The viability of an organization depends, to a considerable extent on the skills of different employees, especially that of its managerial cadre, to align the organization successfully within its environment. Three factors have been identified which necessitate continuous training in the organization. These factors are technological advancements, organizational complexity, and Human Relations. All these factors are related to each other Example Technological advancements tend to increase the size of the organization, which increases its complexity, similarly ,increasing organizational complexity and technological advancements also a creates human Relations.
