It gives me an immense pleasure to be in a conversation with you. I am Sundaram, a PGDM Year-1 participant and I will be representing the group of 10 students who are eagerly waiting for an opportunity to interact with you on the subject of ethics. This is part of our course “Ethics in Business”, which is led by Mr. Jagdish Rattanani. My understanding from your previous conversations in email trail is that you have no plans so far to visit Mumbai in December 2017. Could you please let me know if you will be available in Mumbai either in January 2018 or the first week of February 2018 and take out some of your valuable time for us? If required, I can share you the brief profile of the 10 participants who want to meet you. Thank you. *[OM-1][IMPORTANT]* Deadline: 18-Dec-2017 EOD File naming convention: *
