government spending after the polls has injected fresh liquidity into the banking system, bringing down overnight borrowing rates, Treasury Bill yields and, in turn, short-term financing costs for Indian companies, even as the central bank seems to be in no great hurry to lower policy rates.

Asix months’ grace period was something I learnt to negotiate in assignments as one of the first women working in the infrastructure sector. When I was posted in the ports sub-sector, or in a large infrastructure project, many would question my suitability as a woman officer for a role in a male-dominated field. Inevitably, I would ‘beg’ for six months before a decision was taken to re-post me to an assignment considered more conducive for a woman officer.
