Hi Vaibhav
I was assigned some task to find some SP Jain related data, and while doing so bumped into your blog.
And while rolling down, i read you were there for IIM-Indore interview as well. So just got curious if you happen to be my batchmate, but realized you didnt join Planet-I and preferred Hel(L)
Somehow had the time to acknowledge that I have been at your blog
Cheers !
