 Quite some time back, I got my hands on the book titled 7 Sutras of Innovation written by Nikhil Inamdar with Marico Innovation Foundation, which was very kindly sent to me by Jaico Pubblishing House. I flipped through the first few pages to unveil that it delineates the stories of t 8 thriving companies and their journey of transformation. All the 8 organizations mentioned in the book are the Marico Innovation Foundation's "Innovation for India"awardees who were pushing the limits with their excellence and creating waves in the business world with their exponential growth as well as success. The book beautifully narrates the behind the scenes of their globally lauded success. 

The 8 organizations covered in this book belong to different domains. They differ in the size,business idea and model, structure and operations. The only similarity they shared - 7 sutras of innovation. These remarkable thriving organizations followed diligently the 7 sutras of innovation which helped them to turn things around. It's these mantra that supported their transition from being a start-up to scale-up .
