Dear Ms. Priyanka,
You must be immensely blessed as you've already been a recipient of some excellent advise by fellow professionals, and honorable members of the CITE community, and here is my little contribution to add to your help.
Firstly be assured, whatever you are going through is nothing new, it's been happening for ages and there is an old English quote, "The horse does the pulling but the coachman takes the tips." As you have rightly stated you are getting the right opportunities, the right exposure to practice what ever your learnt, so just bide your time, it will definitely come some day before it's late.
It's happened to me too in my career, not once but twice, but I was fortunate that I had my father close by me for advise, encouragement, and support. I can also remember what he told me at that time, "Just remember this my son, you can't suppress stench and fragrance for a long time, it'll be out what ever you do, so it's your choice whether you want to stink or smell sweet." Those were potent words, I just kept plugging on handling more than the responsibilities, going that extra mile (GEM) and became as solid as rock. I earned a lot of respect from not only my peers but even from Seniors. It also came to a time when my boss was leaning on me for her survival as she was nearing her retirement. I thank her for the faith in me, it only enabled me become even better. From her side she is eternally grateful to me to this day. All this that I narrated was in the period from 1974-87.
So have faith in yourself. I end this with another quote "The tallest oak in the forest was just one little nut that held it's ground" - Anon
And feel fortunate there is this amazing community called CITEHR, with several fantastic people with so many wonderful thoughts that you can never ever feel lonely. Just say, you are a few finger punches on the keyboard away from the beautiful world outside you. Hope this will do some good to you.
Take care and best wishes for great future.

Hi Priyanka,
As all have explained to you, almost all bosses take credit for what their teams anr doing.
Your immediate manager is distributing tasks to all of his/surbodinates and his/her main task now is to make sure the tasks are completed effectively, then to REPORT to the MD.
By doing so he/she is taking credit as a head of department and must give it back to you guys as a kind of feedback and appreciation from MD but you do not need to go and get the praise directly from the MD.
Just put yourself into your boss's shoes and hopefully you will get to experience it in future.
Thanks,
Vicky.

Hello Priyanka,
I fully agree with Mr. Dinesh advice. He has elaborated the situation nicely and sincerely. You have to be a best worker in the eyes of your boss and try to maintain it. If your work is of excellent quality nearing perfection, it will speak itself. There will be many occasions when you will be present with your boss in the presence of MD and other senior officers. How you behave differently and qualitatively at that point of time will automatically bring to light your old performances in one way or the other. This will be reflected through your opinions on many matters there.Try to concentrate on your work as per our old spiritual adage of GITA that do your work and forget about the result. The result will have to come to you sooner or later.
