I track the Telecom sector, tussles in India Inc's Business Houses and have reported on the Human Capital market for close to a decade. Now in the Telecom beat, I report on M&As, government policies, consumer behaviour and the legal battles involving investors, shareholders and companies. A degree in psychology and another one in journalism helps me break down a story and cover its impact from multiple perspectives. You can reach me on devina.sengupta@timesgroup.com and on Twitter - @DevinaET
