Abstract

The case 'The Enron Saga' outlines the problems faced by Enron in starting its operations in India-the legal, political and economic forces at play during the early 1990s. The case is an example of how Enron surmounted the different hurdles and made the project viable under the then prevailing Business Ethics in India. The case outlines the various events from the time the MoU was signed till the final clearance.

The case is a good example of the strategy adopted by Enron to make the project a success. It also draws a comparison with Cogentrix, which failed to take off under similar conditions as faced by Enron. The case also touches the various options available to Enron and the MSEB to sustain the project under the prevailing circumstance of MSEB defaulting on payments.
