Our name, Artha Shastra Economic Consulting Pvt Ltd (www.ashastra.com), is inspired by the Arthashastra, the ancient Indian treatise on statecraft, economic policy and military strategy authored by Chanakya (also sometimes known as Kautilya and Vishnugupta).
Chanakya (c. 350 - 283 BC) was a professor at Taxila University and later the prime minister of the Maurya Empire, and is considered one of the earliest pioneers in economics and political science. The Arthashastra discusses monetary and fiscal policies, welfare, international relations, and war strategies in detail.
In the western world, Chanakya is sometimes referred to as "The Indian Machiavelli". Odd, because Chanakya predates Machiavelli by about 1800 years.
And no, there's nothing Machiavellian about our intentions. Our name is just a tribute to Chanakya, the savant. Like him, we too not only advise but implement.
