The man is an expert – both at profi ts & saving lives!

R.S. SHARMA... Chairman & MD, ONGC
The man is an expert – both at profi ts & saving lives!

It was in August 2006 that R.S. Sharma stepped into the shoes of Subir Raha as Chairman & MD of ONGC. Many doubted his competence over the years but then he has silenced critics from time to time. If we also recall, he was the very individual who had managed to protect ONGC’s vast assets with a comprehensive insurance policy – a feat which catapulted him to fame as the Director of Finance at ONGC in 2002. But all said and done, his experience of 19 healthy years and his incredible crisis management skills have also come to surface many-a-time – during the Mumbai High-field fire in July 2005 (where his rescue operations saved hundreds of lives) and the floods at the Hazira gas unit (where he had the unit up-and-running in less than two weeks!). Surely, this general knows more than just number crunching and that’s what he’s out to prove! Critics, watch out!
