Power and Embedded Power Compaines to benefit:
Sensex recovers from early low; above 14,800: There are indications from the sources, that Power Companies may get tax holiday’s, custom duty waiver for over 25 MW projects.

It already have good power production capacity for commercial and for domestic purpose), Monnet Ispat(it already has 60 Mw of power capacity and planning some more), Tata Power etc. which are already in a expansion mode may be benefited hugely from this move. I have been the Premium Group members that there are some accumulations going on in Kanishk Steel Industries Ltd for some time. Yesterday Kanishk Steel hit the buyer freeze. Keep holding the scrip for some wonderful gains in future.
My Monday's recommended scrip Oscar Investments Ltd to the Premium Group, hit second buyer freeze. Pioneer Embroideries Ltd is doing well on the news of its huge land bank. Keep adding on all declines to get a target of Rs.250 plus:

The Communist Party of India (CPI) on Tuesday, 28 August 2007, said it had no intention of destabilising the government and force an immediate election on the contentious Indo-US nuclear deal issue. The party, however, wanted its concerns on the deal to be addressed by the ruling coalition by a mechanism, like a committee at the political level, to clarify all doubts on 123 agreement and allied matters like the Hyde Act.
The UPA government and the Left parties, on Monday 27 August 2007, agreed to formalise a joint mechanism to address the latter's objections on the civil nuclear deal with the US. But the Left's main demand of not proceeding with International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) negotiations remained unresolved, even after a series of high-profile meetings between the two sides, reports suggest. In a meeting of government with the Left party leaders held on Monday, 27 August 2007, Left parties reiterated their that they would agree to participate in the mechanism, but the government shouldn't go ahead with next round of IAEA negotiations.
The proposed mechanism in the form of a committee will also decide how long the government will stall IAEA negotiations. However, the government has refused to give any time frame for the committee to finish its work
