Great support by Gurcharan Sir to eFI by guiding, instructing, correcting and extending is vast knowledge. We are lucky that we have his support. A dozen year of remarkable progress of eFI has been possible due to the supports of Gurcharan Sir, Garg Ji and all others contributing selflessly to this resource. My salutations to all- Pillars, Moderators, Subjects Experts, Contributors and Members of this family. The successful journey continues......
