I came across a case study which was quite contradictory to the one which we had
discussed in class. The case study which was authored by Gaurav Dwivedi stated Tirupur as a
failure in meeting its customer needs leading to a lot of slum dwellers still depending on
water vendors and other water sources due to scarcity. A lot of facts regarding the
concession like operations, shareholding, debt, revenue, expenditure and profits, remains
unavailable to the public. Also there were confidential clauses incorporated in the
concession which were against the transparency concerns. In fact the author had to move
legally against the New Tirupur Area Development Corporation Limited (NTADCL) in order to
obtain real data regarding the project.

It isn't really that contradictory. While it was a success in some aspects, it was a failure in others.
Also, this paper isn't as unbiased as the case we read in class. The author really seems to be having a go at NTADCL right through the case. And he hasn't gotten hold of the data he needs yet, so this is paper does not represent the complete view either.
