Over 150 India-based cases

Ivey Publishing reached a milestone this month of now having more than 150 India-based cases in our collection.  We now have the largest collection of recent business case studies about the region. Roughly one new India-based case will be added to the collection each week in the future.


With a commitment to providing high quality cases for use in India, our growing collection provides students with comprehensive cases that reflect the changing Indian business environment. For a list of abstracts of our India case collection, please click here.

New Cases in Accounting & Finance

The newest cases from the Ivey case collection are available for review. View New Cases for more details on cases registered in your discipline.

 

Airport Express Metro Line: Infrastructure Project Financing and Implementation Through Public Private Partnership

The case describes the delivery of an urban public transportation project through a public private partnership (PPP). Delhi Metro Rail Corporation (DMRC) was a corporate body created by the Government of India and the Government of National Capital Territory of Delhi (NCT Delhi) for implementing a mass rapid transit system (MRTS) in Delhi. The case can be used in a project finance class for making participants understand the complexities of financing infrastructure projects, especially in developing countries. Specifically, the case tries to achieve the following learning objectives: understanding and appreciating the complexities of infrastructure projects in developing countries’ context; limitations of public financing of infrastructure projects and project implementation; understanding public private partnership models of project financing and implementation and comparing various options of project financing and operations. The case will be useful for MBA class students studying courses on infrastructure development for public service delivery using PPP mode and project financing for public projects. The case can be useful for undergraduate students for understanding basic concepts of PPP.

He approached the professor who had taught him valuation concepts in a finance course and wanted to know the reasons for the difference. This case is designed for an MBA level course in corporate finance. It is intended to provide students a background to create the following statements and analysis: Estimation of Cash Flow; Measurement of Cost of Capital; Valuation of the Project -Mismatch of Valuation Estimates. The case gives an opportunity to compare and review some of the popular cash flow valuation techniques.
