IAS interview of tirumala taken by the third member of the panel

M3: No, no...this is not what I meant....Tell me specifically, how would it affect IT industry?
Tiru: Sir, the IT industry bills their overseas customers in dollars or in Euros and hence for the same amount of euros or dollars coming in, they will have less rupees after conversion. That would decrease their margin.
M3: And what would happen to Auto industry?
Tiru: Sir, using the same logic the Auto exporters too will take a hit.
M3: No, that is wrong. Think like a mechanical engineer, the auto industry has anicilliary and main makers etc...can you now tell?
Tiru: I am extremely sorry sir but I don't know the answer.
M3: Ok leave it. There is some issue with petrol and diesel and there is some arguments going on..what is it?
Tiru: Sir the petrol and diesel prices are going up.
M3: No no, I mean there is some other issue. Using it in automobiles etc..think in that line.
Tiru: Sir the last century was oil century and this would be gas century. We will have more use of gases in automobiles and less and less petrol and diesel as we go along.
M3: No no. that won't happen for next thirty years. Think in lines of pollution.
Tiru: Yes sir, both are polluting in nature as they produce....X
M3: No no, you are a mechanical engineer, think in terms of the engines.
Tiru: Sir, in past thirty years or so, diesel technology has made a lot of progress due to improvement in fuel injection technology and they have become silent and hence all major car manufacturers are now releasing a diesel versions...X
M3: No no...i was not asking that. OK, leave it. Do you have any idea as to how many cars India produces each year?
Tiru: Sorry sir, I don't have the figures.
M3: Do you have any idea how big is our auto industry?
Tiru: I am sorry sir, I don't know.
M3: Looks like you don't know anything about industries. Tell me which industry do you know about.
Tiru: Sir, I have worked in hydraulic industry for more than 3 and half years. You can ask about that.
M3: (he had a pencil in hand all the time which he put it down now as if giving up): I don't know anything about hydraulic industry.
(I was quite relieved)
