They are becoming an integral part of a wide range of man-made products including electronics, paints, biomedical products, sunscreens, clothing, automobiles, etc. Rapid progress in the manufacturing of ENPs and the subsequent increase in its commercial applications always have had an impact on agriculture due to the exposure of living things to these ENPs. Also, human beings are directly dependent on the plants because of their nutritional values. Hence, the impact of nanoparticles on agricultural soil and plants is always of topical interest. It is imperative to be aware of the effects of nanoparticles on soil as well as on the soil ecosystem it supports especially the soil microbes and plants; or more specifically whether they have an influence on the agricultural yield and agri-economy. It is also important to study the effects of man-made nanomaterials on the properties of agricultural soil. This work reviews some of the key features of the impact of ENPs on the environment and the fate of ENPs in agriculture.</p>1 aPhogat, N.1 aKhan, S., A.1 aShankar, S.1 aAnsary, A., A.1 aUddin, I.  uhttps://library.ncl.res.in/content/fate-inorganic-nanoparticles-agriculture01148nas a2200121   4500008004100000245009100041210006900132260003200201520064100233100001800874700001600892856011800908       2018                        eng d00aFramework for building a portfolio of disruptive technologies for sustainable mobility0 aFramework for building a portfolio of disruptive technologies fo  aChennai; IndiabFISITAcOCT3 aWe provide a framework that would help the CTO to (a) assess the disruptive power of new technologies at an early stage (b) systematically track its evolution and (c) build a sustainable plan for the company to respond to the disruption. We have applied our framework to illustrate how the CTO of an automotive OEM can build a portfolio of disruptive technologies in electric, autonomous and connected vehicles to create sustainable mobility for the future. We describe qualitative and quantitative tools and metrics that would help the CTO to make investment decisions on new disruptive technologies and communicate to the stakeholders1 aVenugopal, S.1 aShankar, S.  uhttps://www.scopus.com/inward/record.url?eid=2-s2.0-85057984300&partnerID=40&md5=9cdbb097550a6ed6e2d126140aba0ad3
