HDFC chief speaks to Abhijit Majumder on Mumbai and the road ahead

HDFC Chairman and CEO Deepak Parekh calls a spade a spade, especially when it recklessly digs up Mumbai's roads and vanishes leaving a scar and huge traffic jams behind. He spoke to Sunday MiD DAY at length last week about roads, traffic and other aspects of the subject of his passion, Mumbai.

From January 1, Parekh will step down from his executive role and vice chairman and managing director Keki Mistry will take over as vice chairman and CEO. Parekh will, however, continue as non-executive chairman, and a dreamer, doer.
