With concepts like carbon trading, corporate social responsibility, human resource accounting gaining importance and finding their way as a part of legislations in India , it does prove that the reporting is not only meant for investors, but is extended to other stakeholders like employees, customers and the society at large. With the steps taken towards adoption of International Financial Reporting Standards by most nations, the need for a holistic reporting structure has become the need of the hour. In a circular dated 6th Feb 2017 Securities Exchange Board of India (SEBI) has asked the top 500 listed companies in India to adopt integrated reporting. One must say, a remarkable step taken by the Indian regulatory authority for capital markets when the global economy is rapidly changing. In this paper an attempt has been made to examine and study the current reporting practices and the integrated reporting practices and highlight the differences between the two. While highlighting the same, an attempt has been made towards studying the impact it will have on various stakeholders of the company and ultimately its market price.","PeriodicalId":183686,"journal":{"name":"IBMRD's Journal of Management & Research","volume":"54 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122025256","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This realization along with the shift in government policies from welfare state to regulator and putting the onus on private players through globalization, liberalization and privatization have contributed to the enhanced focus on service delivery, customer satisfaction and inquiry and addressing of gaps in the \"Service Quality\". The burgeoning middle class with disposable income and information at hand is ready to shell out but at the same time is more demanding for value creation. Various types of hospitals including those governed by trust which either has specified for profit and not for profit as their motive or hospitals affiliated to medical colleges are rendering their services to patients in rural areas where premium government hospitals such as All India institute of Medical sciences are not available. The present study is an attempt to understand the patient expectations, their opinion and perception of \"Service Quality\" and identify and understand the gaps in the \"Service Quality\". The study has presented a unique dimension by taking into consideration the relative importance or weightage of each parameter of \"Service Quality\" and further investigating the gaps in \"Service Quality\" on each dimension between the types of hospitals and departments of hospitals. The study revealed that amongst all of the criteria 'reliability', was ranked the top most followed by 'responsiveness'', 'assurance' and 'empathy'. The 'tangibility', of services was perceived to be least important amongst the entire service dimension. Further it was observed that the patient expectations exceeded their perceptions for all service dimensions. Moreover such a gap was observed highest amongst the 'reliability', dimension followed by 'assurance', 'empathy' and 'responsiveness''. The type of hospital was not a significant differentiator on this count but the department and duration of patient stay in hospital significantly influenced the gaps in the \"Service Quality\".","PeriodicalId":183686,"journal":{"name":"IBMRD's Journal of Management & Research","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128744974","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
