about 12 years ago

Diesel price deregulation and gas price hike were two 'items' on the expected agenda. These decisions had been deferred for so long that one had stopped expecting them.

MARKETS AT NEW HIGH - WHAT EXACTLY ARE WE CELEBRATING?

about 12 years ago

Willing to take the risk of being called a party pooper, one cannot understand the reason for this surge at this juncture. Pre-budget rally? That's fine but then are the markets expecting a populist budget and not a prudent one? Is that what we are setting up the markets for - super high expectations when we really cannot afford to have any?

about 13 years ago

And exactly like last year, this time too, PSUs continue to take the lead in issuing tax free bonds. The 'season' was flagged off by two offers - National Highways Authority of India (NHAI) and Indian Railways Finance Corporation (IRFC).

THE EGO QUOTIENT - OF COURSE WE KNOW ABOUT IT!

about 10 years ago

These are daily instances of ego at work place. Right from the boss to peers and even the juniors, dealing with work place ego is a minefield. We as Indians take it as a way of life where even mediocre or small achievements are celebrated like big victories; that's once again ego at play.

WHY INDIA INC IS STINGY WHEN IT COMES TO "GIVING"?

about 13 years ago

A couple of years ago, Warren Buffett and Bill Gates were in India; not to invest but to urge more Indian industrialists to take to philanthropy, like themselves. Well, not many industrialists were inspired enough to give and that is what this article seeks to find - why India Inc is not generous enough?

WHAT ARE THE CHANCES OF INDIA POST BECOMING A BANK?

about 13 years ago

Making use of the postal services for banking is the most logical thing to do. Take the case of Japan. It is extremely successful, not delivering mails but mainly as banks. Most post offices in Japan offer a savings account and it does cover most banking needs including ATMs at a wide range of places including remote villages and mountain towns

RBI - NIPPING REALTY 'SCHEMES' RIGHT AT THE BUD

about 13 years ago

We all would have come across builders/developers at some point of time or other. Thus we all would be very familiar with the attitude of most builders/developers who take away as much money from us as possible, without they themselves delivering little to nothing. We buy a home putting our entire life savings and then even after paying; we are the mercy of the builder. There are instances where people have paid up over 75%

HOPE WILL BE THE ETERNAL PARTNER OF 2017!

about 10 years ago

A good year makes us look forward to the New Year, with hope that it will bring in good cheer. So keep the cheer and keep the hopes up. Take a look at the table given. Statistics never lies and what we see is that every year, despite the circumstances, ends in the green.

JULY IIP - FLASH IN THE PAN?

about 13 years ago

Manufacturing which has a 80% weightage in the IIP number did well with a growth of 3% but Capital Goods, showing a growth of 15.6% v/s degrowth of 6.6% in June was too volatile and cannot really be taken as an indicator of any improvement. Most analysts do not take into consideration capital goods at all as it simply

HOW CAN RBI REDUCE PRICE OF POTATO, MILK AND RICE?

about 13 years ago

If food inflation is at the crux of all the woes of the economy, surely, it is quite apparent that it is not RBI but the Govt which needs to work. Take the case of onions. The price has shot through the roof to Rs.100/110 per kilo and following a major public hue and cry, the prices, within a week have come down to Rs.40/kg and post Diwali, can also go down to Rs.20/kg. Did RBI intervene here and get the prices of onions down?

UKRAINE CRISIS - WILL IT BE SPLIT WIDE OPEN?

about 13 years ago

fter abandoning EU Association Agreement, Yanukovych made a deal with Russia's Putin, wherein Putin offered "an economic lifeline" to Ukraine in the form of $15 billion loans and cheaper gas supplies. Thus while Ukrainians were hoping to see their President take steps to integrate the country with Europe; all dreams of development and progress was ditched was ditched

BSE LISTING - A "TO DO" LIST THAT NEVER GETS DONE!

about 13 years ago

But looks like it might indeed take a while for this historic IPO to hit the capital market. There is a bizarre clause issued by the SEBI's Stock Exchange and Clearing Corporation Regulations (SECC), which mandates that every shareholder of BSE is fit & proper. How much more bizarre can this get?

NOV IIP - THANK GOD IT CAME FRIDAY EVENING!

about 13 years ago

This somehow seems to push away any hopes of recovery in the second half any time soon. At the same time, it makes one wonder whether the RBI Governor will take a respite on rate hikes once again on 28th Jan, given this shrinkage of growth. The IIP data indicates that there has been tremendous demand destruction and that means,

1ST ESTIMATE OF GDP - NOT THE GUIDING STAR FOR FY18 BUDGET

about 10 years ago

The GDP data which was published by the Central Statistical Organisation (CSO) on Friday was meaningless to say the least. It has considered data for the first eight months and demonetization happened in the 11th month. Thus the GDP number did not take into account the impact of something

UCO BANK - BOLD , WELCOME STEP OF 'NAMING AND SHAMING'

about 14 years ago

Call is sadistic pleasure or whatever; it was heartening to see one bank finally having the guts to take on the might of the big moneyed guys. UCO Bank is setting a trend. It issued an advertisement in the newspapers, with a picture of Nitin Kasliwal, CMD of S Kumars Nationwide Ltd (SKNL),

PATENTS - WHY SUCH LOW COUNTS FROM INDIA?

about 13 years ago

Take the case of IBM. For 21 consecutive years, IBM has owned the maximum patents in USA. As per data presented by IFI Claims Patent Services, IBM secured a staggering 6,809 patents in 2013. Samsung was at number two, owning 4,676 patents. Canon was third with 3,825 and Sony fourth with 3,098. Rounding out the top five was Microsoft with 2,660 patents. The remaining top

'UNDATED' CURRENCY NOTES AND GOLD - SIMPLE LOGIC HAI!

about 13 years ago

Sometimes the best logic comes from the simplest person at home - be it a grandmom or mother or even your domestic help. Now take the case of this rush to exchange pre-2005 currency notes. All three confer - gold prices will spike up as people to rush to clear their tijoris of all pre-2005

CEMENT - DEMAND DOWN BUT PRICES UP

Realty sector is gasping for survival with skeletal demand. Housing prices are have come off the earlier highs and the interest rate cycle has finally started turning around towards lower rates - yet it will take a while for the buyers to come back and buy. There isn't much construction happening

APRIL IIP - AT LEAST IT IS NOT NEGATIVE!

about 15 years ago

Slow growth is consitently driven by investment collapse. Cutting interest rates is not the sole medicine and is not enough but tseems to be the only step at the moment which can buoy the sentiments to some extent. Those in the market feel like it's a slam dunk decision - that RBI will cut rates. But one has to take a bigger view and look at other macro factors,

Today is an auspicious day, Dhanteras, the first day of the five-day Diwali Festival. And keeping the festivities in mind, the Muhurat Trading on Lakshmi Poojan day, following the tradition of every year, we have identified a set of Navratnas for Diwali. These ratnas can outshine any gold or diamond jewellery, earning you more too! The nine gems are one from each sector which we think are today poised for much better times ahead. And these are, as per us, the best stocks in their respective sectors. Take a pick, choose the gem which suits you the best or build a long term portfolio

EXPECTATIONS RUN HIGH FOR RATE CUT

about 14 years ago

So expectations take further wings - will RBI cut only 25 bps on 29th Jan? The market has now assumed that a rate cut is for sure based on today's released WPI number. December WPI came in at 7.18% v/s 7.24% in November, a marginal decrease, nevertheless a fall. The market was especially enthused with manufacturing inflation,

DAS – AN EXPERT IN PULLING UP SURPRISES!

about 7 years ago

It was a given – 25 bps rate cut and Shaktikanta Das threw a googly once again by taking a pause. Once he made everyone sit up and take notice with an odd 35bps rate and today, no rate cut when it was almost for certain that rate will be cut to spike up growth. 135 rate cuts back-to-back in 5 consecutive policies – so it’s not exactly sacrilege if RBI decided to take a pause

US FED HIKES RATES - CUE FOR RBI TOO?

about 8 years ago

For the 8th time since 2015 and third time in 2018, the US Federal Reserve, as widely expected hiked interest rate by 25 bps, to a range between 2% and 2.25%. And it removed the reference to “accommodative policy.” All eyes were also on what the Fed is likely to do next year – will it continue with its rate hikes or will it take it slow?

ARE WE REALLY GROWING?

ONLY VIMAL - WHO WILL BUY THIS EMPEROR'S CLOTHES BRAND?

about 15 years ago

"Only Vimal, Only Vimal..." the jingle went. It was probably one of the first advertisements for fabrics on Doordarshan and the brand which made Reliance into a household name. It was the brand which made the country sit up and take notice of Dhirubhai Ambani and also the brand which made Mudra Communications,

CHOPPY MARKETS – SWIM AGAINST THE TIDE OR DROP ANCHOR?

about 9 years ago

The biggest question dogging almost every small investors mind on Dalal Street is whether one should stay away from the equity markets for now given the uncertainty, in domestic as well as global markets. While we are dealing with apathy, exit of emerging markets and wait for things to take off after the elections in May

IS IT TIME TO EXIT FROM PSU BANKING STOCKS?

about 9 years ago

There is a virtual massacre on the PSU bank stocks. Take a look at the top losers, be it Nifty or BSE; all losers are PSU banks, with Union Bank, PNB, Allahabad Bank alternating between the top spot of losers.

ECONOMIC SURVEY: F1Y9 COULD BE A DREAM BUT FOR.....

about 9 years ago

The Survey expects the FY18 GDP at 6.75%, similar to what it has estimated in FY17 Survey. It expects FY19 growth at 7 to 7.5%. This is good news as it expects the economy growth engine to take off in FY19. It is banking on private sector investment to take off and aid this growth. But putting in an air of caution, the FM has said that the takeoff of the private sector investment depends on resolution of stressed assets and recapitalisation of banks; if the NPA resolution does not happen as scheduled, the private capex cycle may take longer to pick up.

INDIANS BECOMING “GLOBAL” REALTORS!

about 9 years ago

In 2015, RBI relaxed some norms for withdrawals while travelling abroad. As per the new rule, RBI doubled the annual overseas investment ceiling. This means Indian families can take up to $250,000 of money per family member, amounting to $1 million per year for a family of four. That means $2 million in two years. And we are seeing the effect of this now in the global property market.

FORGET RATE CUT; PRAY THERE IS NO HIKE!

PATEL AND POWELL – IT’S ALL ABOUT HOLDING ONE’S STEED

about 9 years ago

Let’s face the truth – we appoint a new RBI Governor, apart from us Indians, that too a small section, no one really cares. But a new Federal Reserve chief is announced; the whole world will sit up and take notice. He/she is undoubtedly the most powerful economic public figure on earth and the appointment of this chief can move the markets while the “tone” of his/her language is analysed and dissected to the bare bones by economists.

MARKETS IN DEEP RED – WHAT TO DO?

OIL AT AROUND $40 LEVELS – THE NEW NORM?

about 9 years ago

Really, there is nothing which will make us humans happy, more so those in the capital market. Till a few months ago, we were ruing our fortune when oil prices were scaling above $100/barrel. We felt that we were about to lose it all and oil prices would cripple our limping economy. Ok, so then we had falling oil prices. Oil prices are back to hovering at $40/barrel levels – around $42/barrel. OPEC has decided to not cut back on supplies any more as it is scared of losing its market shares even though it is ready to take a hit on its earnings.

RBI TAKES THE MIDDLE PATH – MAINTAINS STATUS QUO

about 9 years ago

The message which has come across today from the policy – we do not know if the rates are to be lowered or raised; let the banks decide while we will take the neutral stance of status quo, putting the onus on the banks. The RBI has stated, “the current state of the economy underscores the need to revive private investment, restore banking sector health and remove infrastructural bottlenecks. Monetary policy can play a more effective role only

KFA - ETIHAD DEAL - LOT OF WHEELING, DEALING BEHIND THE SCENES?

about 14 years ago

Was there any truth to the earlier decision to take over Jet Airways, or was that merely a rumour? And if it had already negotiated with Jet, then why this volte-face and buying 48% in a company which is dead and saddled with debt? Logically, it should have bought into a company which is doing relatively better and has a good spread across the country. Jet fits that bill. But in case of KFA, today hardly any plane is taking off. So why buy into a company which is seemingly down and out?

THE TRIGGERS AHEAD....

about 11 years ago

The market is having a dream run, with stocks scaling new highs. Yet there is a quiet sense of disquiet. At times when there is fear lurking at the back of one's mind, it is always best to stay prepared - forewarned is forearmed.

OPEC - A CONSENSUS GROUP WITH NO CONSENSUS TO DO ANYTHING

about 11 years ago

Iran announced on 30th May that it has barred its pilgrims from traveling to Mecca to take part in the annual Muslim Hajj pilgrimage, accusing Saudi Arabia of failing to guarantee the safety of its citizens. As such tensions were simmering and this outburst was another angry reaction. Under these circumstances, if one had expected that today's OPEC meet will give any positive results, one had to either be too naÃ¯ve or too foolish.

WHAT HAPPENS NOW AFTER BREXIT?

about 10 years ago

The earthquake that was Brexit continues to send tremors; the small shake-ups continue. The world had the weekend to ruminate and ponder upon the Brexit.

"ONLY VIMAL, ONLY VIMAL": SOME BRANDS ARE A PIECE OF HISTORY

about 10 years ago

BIG FAT INDIAN WEDDINGS TO BE PUT ON A CRASH DIET?

about 10 years ago

The way Indian weddings are conducted; it is a world wide discussed occurrence and foreign tourists consider themselves very fortunate to be able to attend any such wedding. It is the biggest irony of all things we do in India – a farmer would live in abject poverty due to crop failure but will take up loans to conduct his daughter’s marriage.

TURNAROUND IN MOODS - LONG LASTING OR TEMPORARY?

about 14 years ago

Undoubtedly, there is a turnaround in sentiments. From being morose and pessimistic, there is a perceptible shift to hopeful and optimistic. Downgrades and current account be damned; those are thorns which the markets have decided will take once the economy is kick started by the new FM, Dr.Manmohan Singh.

LIC – THE BIGGEST NEWS IN THE BUDGET

about 7 years ago

The biggest news in the Union Budget was undoubtedly the listing of LIC. This is like the jewel in the crown of all the PSUs and its so juicy, everyone has been waiting to lay their hands on this sweet fruit. But once again, how long will this take and will we get any shares at all?

MARKET RUNS WITH THE BULLS – SO DO PENNY STOCKS

about 10 years ago

We have many investors/traders posting us queries on the website, asking for some penny stock ideas. The only question which comes to mind is “why?” This search for the elusive pot of gold at the end of the brilliant rainbow is what puts traders at risk. And this is a dangerous time to be on the hunt for penny stocks and it is actually the perfect time to stand back and look at where and what we are investing in. Wait for the dust to settle before you take a call on large cap stocks too!

CHANGE OF BASE YEAR – MAKES MACRO DATA LOOK SO GOOD!

about 10 years ago

For most of us ignoramus, the Base year in economic parlance does not mean much; or rather does not mean anything. But today, when we base all our economic data for making important investment decisions, take a calculated risk even on what the RBI could announce, this base rate holds tremendous significance.

THE SAD STORY OF CHETTINAD GROUP - MAKES "ADOPTION" A DIRTY WORD

about 12 years ago

Does the story of the aged and embittered father and his ambitious adopted son prove once again that blood is thicker than water? That is the one thought which comes to mind when we read this ugly but sad story of the Raja of Chettinad. With a Rs.10,000 crore business empire, where money is abundant, it is such a telling tale of how wealth can neither buy you peace nor happiness. The story is a sure shot plot for a movie in the future. M A M Ramaswamy, chairman emeritus of Chettinad Group of Companies did not have a biological child so he and his wife decided to legally adopt S.Ayyappan in 1995. He was 20 years of age

“QUOTABLE QUOTES” – THAT IS A GUARANTEE OF MODI SPEECH!

about 9 years ago

Prime Minsiter Modi is a dazzling orator; that is one thing which every single person, be it a supporter or opposer, will unanimously agree upon. His talk is inspirational and he holds the ability to build upon a vision. It’s a different question (and a topic) whether or not those visions translate into reality or whether the talks remain merely that, talks. But we all hand it to him when it comes to presenting India on an international platform.

STATUS QUO BUT STRONG MESSAGE TO BANKS TO TRANSMIT

about 12 years ago

The message which the RBI Governor today sent across was pretty clear - unless there is transmission of the previous two rate cuts of 25 bps each in 2015, the RBI was not going to act on rate cuts any more. And he was optimistic that banks will be forced to cut rates to match markets. Hopefully, banks will toe the line and instead of cutting only deposit rates, will cut lending rates too!

Oh there was such a huge build up today about the great Mukesh Ambani speech! Speculation was rife that for Mukesh Ambani himself to speak, first time outside the AGM, would surely mean some big announcement.
