GIM's 'Ribandar Talks' Feature Ashish K. Chauhan, CIO - Reliance Infocomm

Previous

The NSE Set-Up consisted of 3 parts: -

  • Operational

  • Informational

  • Corporate Governance

When NSE was set-up, there were 35 brokers transacting with a group of 25 members assisting them.

Today, through NSE, 25 lakh trades take place a day, which is a lot more than what was thought off while setting up the exchange. Today, NSE is the third largest stock exchange in the world in terms of the number of trades.

After his stint with IDBI, he joined the Reliance Group, whose Infocomm Project was revolutionizing the Indian telecommunication market by introduction of C.D.M.A technology. While the project was in its nascent stage, he was made the CIO of Reliance Infocomm.

However, this job was much challenging as he said, "Getting 1 million customers every month to Reliance Infocomm didn't go off as smoothly as expected." So, the main task of the CIO was organizing the processes in an efficient manner to take care of the major flaws, like data dropping and non-availability of a consistent customer database, which was causing a lot of concern to Mr. Mukesh Ambani. Setting up Real Time Data Entry System on their own network, which was not heard off ever, fetched him the CIO 100 Award.
