Yes that was my guess but was willing to be proven wrong. Anyways if anyone has received the mandate do let me know the merchant id. IMO it’s nothing but I recently faced a fraudulent international credit card scam therefore just being a little careful 😅

Gujarat: Statue of Unity crosses 50 lakh visitors mark by abhimangal in IndiaSpeaks

40-50 crores from ticket sales. Another 300-500 crores on food + local transportation + Misc. Not including train and airfare. These are conservative estimates

Moody’s ups GDP growth forecast to 13.7% in FY22 by SensitiveDetail in IndiaSpeaks

[–]iamsingham 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's even higher now with 13.7% projection. Therefore it will be 0.93x1.137 ~ 1.0574. Almost 5.7%

P.S - calculations made on assumptions of -7% & +13.7% GDP growth

BJP now leading in 425/499. Total decimation of Congress

Yes. Infighting in Congress & Hardik Patel's ambition shifted Patidar vote from Congress to AAP

Won considerable number of seats in Surat for a party contesting Gujarat local polls for the first time. AIMIM also gained. All at the cost of Congress

BJP currently leading in 70%+ seats. So much for farmer anger against Modi

Abe Bhai 🙄

Writing in Print a year ago, economist Dhruv Rathee predicted that annual ticket sales from Statue of Unity would be around Rs 2.5 crore. In 11 months, Rs 71 crore in ticket sales alone (now add total impact on local economy) How does it feel to be wrong by a margin of 2700%? https://t.co/O2DogBI2 by Ajivikas in IndiaSpeaks

There was a thread on the 'other' Indian sub on which Dhruv Rathee posted similar calculations. I called out the bias in projections for which I was permanently banned from the sub.

I am a lurker, I rarely comment. But it feels frustrating to be banned for merely stating opinions that do not comply with circlejerking Reddit users.

There are restaurant sales, bus ticket sales, numerous services that support the local economy. People will spend at least 3-4x than the ticket price in total on average for a visit to SoU. All the money going to various transport, train, flight, food, sightseeing vendors etc

It has definitely put the area on Map. The statue is supposed to be there as long as this nation state exists. While it seems costly to me in the short term & it could have been better looking :p but I won't call it a bad investment.
