Kingfisher Airlines Ltd is out of the lower circuits and is currently trying to move above Rs.7, on the new found optimism, that the required funding for the airlines would come from the UB Group and also the debt of the company has come down substantially during the last few days, due to the selling of the shares by the Banks (which were kept as collateral against the loans taken by the KFA Ltd). This will also have a positive effect on the interest cost on the company. It has already clocked in huge volume and this rise shows that there is an appetite for the scrip in the market. I think the retail investors are picking up the scrip of this once reputed airline for some positive development in the coming days. It seems the competitors of the Kingfisher Airlines Ltd tried to use the media to their own benefit, for the reasons best known to all. One of its group company UB Holding Ltd has already hit the upper circuits at Rs.40.60. CMP: Rs.6.80.
Yesterday, the markets performed better than expected. A reasonably flat opening was followed by sustained buying which took Nifty to around 5700 mark. The bulls were in full charge of the things and there was total absence of intraday correction---Nifty_Spot closed with a gain of 121 points. Inability of the bears to break 5475 (Nifty_Spot) level and a rise above 5615 has turned the market trend upwards. Nifty has reentered the zone above 200 DMA. Shares from almost all sectors are participating in the up-move setting an immediate target of 5850 for Nifty. It seems that intermediate correction that started in February has come to an end and uptrend is likely to get resumed. The Investor can continue to hold with their Nifty longs, for a target of 5850 (spot), in the coming days. There could be intra-day correction, which should be used to build up long positions. Nifty_Spot is now trading at 5680, which I am sure will improve in the coming hours.
Resistance: 5750 / 5790
Support: 5670/ 5645
US Equities ended up 1% on Tuesday, after hitting five-month lows on Monday, buoyed by robust earnings by index majors and positive economic data.
In Asia most indices rose as robust earnings by select companies in the US and positive economic data triggered bargain buying. However, the Asian markets are now showing mixed trend.
Fundamentally speaking, the stock indices may trade with a positive bias as the Nifty closed above its crucial resistance of 5650 on Tuesday & higher then estimated profit reported by Reliance and HCL Tech. However, profit booking at higher levels may cap the upside.
Today, Reliance Mediaworks Ltd moved to Rs.51.80 and Reliance Broadcast Network Ltd to Rs.27.80. In case of Reliance Broadcast Network Ltd, there is a positive news: BIG CBS Prime has inked deals with distribution platform providers to expand its reach to 30 mln households.

Due to over sold situation in short term and subsequent short cover, the F&O expiry is expected to be closed in the positive today. Since the morning, there has been relentless buying in the Indian bourses, after the INR appreciated against the USD. However, what is to be noted is that till now the rallies are proving to be short lived and are getting exhausted quickly. On the other hand lower level is attracting buying interest also. This has resulted into extreme volatility on the either side of the spectrum. However, it seems there are now some hope of Nifty going to 5700 levels by the end of September, which is normally a good month for the BULLS.
Support: 5350 / 5300.
MCX Ltd which was recommended around Rs.255 and Rs.272, last week is today locked at the Upper Circuits at Rs.256.15. The is near the first target.
Those who have earlier taken B F Utilities Ltd at Rs.128-128, or later, bought it around Rs.118-120, when it fell can continue to add on to their positions and wait for the scrip to cross Rs.200. Today, I am told that an advisory service has recommended the scrip, as a buy for a target of Rs.163.Today the scrip already touched Rs.134.40.
Those who have entered VIP Industries Ltd yesterday, are suggested to exit the counter at around Rs.47.80-48 or either with small profits, or with cost price, because the stock is not performing as expected, even as the INR appreciated against the USD. It was recommended yesterday, on the two premises:
(i) Ace investor, Rakesh Jhunjhunwala has increased his holdings, mostly probably banking on the revival of sales from the CSD business of the company.
(i) Any appreciation of the INR against the USD would be positive for the company as it imports around 80-85 % of its products.
However, the stock did not react too much on the positive side, may be because the price of crude has risen, on the fear of another war in the middle-east.

"With our estimates showing that Indian stock markets could add wealth of almost Rs 200 trillion over the next decade."
"Because for the first time ever…
Three forces are simultaneously converging to unleash a once in a generation wealth boom."
"And while this revival could positively impact every person in the country... YOU have the opportunity to turn this historic event into potentially millions of rupees by owning the companies at the heart of this revival."
His views also underpin, the bullish undertone of the domestic bourses.
💢 Dhanlaxmi Bank (Rs.14.75) - Hold with a SL at Rs.14.70. The next quarter results are expected to be good due to cutting down of provisions for bad loans.
💢 JBF Industries Ltd (Rs.20.70) -- The ARC has taken symbolic possession of the company. Hence, the company has nothing to worry about the debt.
The ARC will pay around Rs.840 crore and is currently assisting in management (The old management is still in control of the affairs), till it is able to either sell it to a large conglomerate or effect a turnaround.
The benefits, will however go to the ARC, till the whole loan amount is recovered. But this means the company is getting DEBT FREE, isn't it?
Hence, we can only expect positive from the company on the fundamental front, especially considering the robustness of the September, 2021 quarter results.
By the way, the polyester fabric market is doing fine post easing of the lockdown restrictions, imposed due to Covid-19 Pandemic.
Now, the point is when the debt is taken of care by an ARC and the lenders are set to give a 59% hair cut on the loans, then the deal becomes like Suzlon Energy Ltd (Rs.10.20), which has been hitting UCs since some time. The plants are operating at 70% of the Peak Capacity.
We therefore, don't need a Mukhesh Ambani, story to paddle the price of the scrip forward. Buy, the share in market dips for targets above Rs.100 (one hundred), as I'm expecting a vertical recovery from here.
💢The share of BF Utilities Ltd (Rs.390) is consolidating around the current ranges, before the next round of upmove. When many stocks are making new 52 - week highs, we can also expect it to move above Rs.1000 (one thousand) in the coming months.
It is not only into infrastructure development, through Nandi Infrastructure Corridor Enterprise Ltd (NICE) but is also into wind power. We know 2022, will be an year of renewable energy, due to NDA government's RE targets. The ace investor Radhakishan Damani holds 1.30% in the company.
It is a Dr.Babasaheb ("Baba") Neelkanth Kalyani company from the reputed Bharat Forge Group. Hence, we don't have to bother about its pedigree.
💢The stock of Bombay Rayon and Fashions Ltd (Rs.8.45) has hit another buyer Freeze, before the commencement of the AGM. The future trajectory of the scrip will hinge on the outcome of the AGM.
💢The stock of Generic Engineering Construction & Projects Ltd (Rs.38.50) has made an intraday high Rs.39.60. Generic Engineering Construction and Projects Ltd's total current outstanding order book stood at Rs.1,390.34 crore, as of May, 2021.
It is surprising that the stock is quoting at Rs.35.65. With this kind of order book any Mumbai based real estate company should trade near Rs.70/80. Buy in dips.
💢As expected the share of Shriram EPC Ltd (Rs.11) is doing fine. We can look for targets of Rs.35 in the coming days. The company is still under the management of the Reputed Shriram Group.

I am of the belief that Moody's rally would continue for some more days, as the NDA government continues with its reform agenda. The the BSE Sensex is now at 33,523.23 up 44.88 points (+0.13%) and NSE is at 10,330.50 up 3.60 points. (+0.03%).
- Intra-day: Sell Chennai Petro at around Rs.411.50, SL: Rs.418, T: Rs.402-399.
- Buy Tata Motor Futures at around Rs.432-433, SL below Rs.428, T: Rs.438.
- Buy Cummins at around Rs.855, SL: Rs.846, T: Rs.872-879, on T+1 basis. Book part profit at Rs.867...
- Buy Tata Elsxi at around Rs.946-947, SL: Rs.920, T: Rs.975-985, on T+4 basis.
The stock of B F Utilities Ltd, which I recommended on 23 August, 2013 at around Rs.129-130, today touched Rs.527. Congratulations to the long term investors, who are still holding the scrip.
The stock of HDIL, which was recommended few weeks back at around Rs.52-53, is now consolidating above Rs.62, for the next round of upmove. The share recently touched Rs.66, before correcting a bit. The next targets for the scrip is Rs.72, if it manages to close above Rs.67.50.
Buy the shares of Shilpi Cable Technologies Ltd at around Rs.14.45, for targets of around Rs.17-19. Since some days, the telecom stocks are doing well. The short term correction in the scrip seems to be over.
The scrip of Gammon Infrastructure Ltd, which was recommended around Rs.2.90 is doing well today and is now trading at around Rs.3.15. Gammon Infrastructure is a subsidiary of the infrastructure major Gammon India Ltd (Rs.6.87). If you are not comfortable with Gammon Infrastructure Ltd, then you can opt for the the shares of parent company, Gammon India Ltd -- Buy on market dips.
Crude Oil prices rose on Wednesday as ongoing cuts of piped Canadian crude to the United States added to falling U.S. crude inventories, while expectations of a prolonged OPEC-led production cut also offered support. Those who have invested in the shares of shares of Aban Offshore Ltd at around Rs.191 (CMP: Rs.202), can keep holding for short term targets of Rs.207-209. SL: Rs.96.
Gitanjali Gems Ltd (Rs.80.50) recently recommended around Rs.67, today touched Rs.84.55. Those who are still holding the scrip can book 80% profit and hold the rest with a SL of Rs.78, for the next logical target of Rs.87. Gitanjali Gems Ltd was recommended many times earlier too, below Rs.50. You can search my blog, for previous recommended prices of Gitanjali Gems Ltd.
You can buy the shares of J P Associates Ltd at around Rs.19, for short term target of Rs.21. If it manages to close above Rs.22, in the next couple of days, then we can look for target of Rs.25-26.

January 6, 2015: It was a black Tuesday for Indian equities, as the country’s benchmark indices — Sensex and Nifty— nosedived over 3 per cent in trade. The sell-off was broad-based with 474 stocks out of the CNX 500 Index declining. Two-third of the stocks that fell were those in which FII holding (as of September 2014) was higher than the year-ago period.

The construction companies are moving up today, in anticipation of the RBI going for another round of rate cuts in the next policy meet. Some of my favourite counters like IVRCL Ltd (Rs.20.70), B F Utilities Ltd (Rs.260), Punj Lloyd Ltd (Rs.53.50), etc are doing well today.
Tulip Telecom Ltd hits another consecutive buyer freeze in the opening trade. It is now locked at the Upper Circuits at Rs.16.13 in the BSE. This scrip was also very strongly recommended in this blog, repeatedly.
Today Kingfisher Airlines Ltd moved to Rs.7.20, before cooling down a bit. It is only time that the airlines would start operation once again. A section media is sending all sorts of make believe news in public domain. The media reports are manufactured and punctuated with "If", "May be", kinds of words, for the reasons best known to all. When the debts have actually come down from Rs.7000 Cr plus and the funding from the U B Group is about to happen, these kinds of negative news only points that some vested groups want to enter the scrip at a lower price before the company announces the good news. Paid Media, is being used by vested groups for their own interest...!! "I seriously wonder what motivates the bank chairmen to constantly speak to the media on loan recovery from Kingfisher Airlines. What about others?" ~~Kingfisher Airlines Chairman Dr.Vijay Mallya, shot this message sometime back on the Twitter.

My recently recommended Southern Online Bio-Technology Ltd, Phoenix International Ltd, Entegra Ltd, VBC Industries Ltd, STL Global Ltd, BF Utilities Ltd, Kalpana Industries Ltd (This week's quickie call), Kohinoor Broadcasting Corporation Ltd, Vikas Metal Ltd(this week's quickie call), Indsil Electrosmelts Ltd, etc. hit the buyer freeze: My earlier recommended H B Stock Holdings Ltd, BLB Ltd, Kanishk Steel and Industries Ltd, Jhunjhunwala Vanaspati Ltd, Dhoot Industrial Finance Ltd, PNB Gilts Ltd, Rasoi Ltd, Associated Alcohol and Breweries Ltd, Mcleod Russel Ltd, Williamson Magor, Sunflag Iron, Minda Industries Ltd, GTC Industries Ltd, Khoday India Ltd, Kamanwala Industries Ltd etc. hit the buyer freezes: Even H S India Ltd did well today: The Intra-day call given to V S Patini on CESC Ltd at Rs.433 shot up to Rs.454 in late trade, giving him handsome gains, intra-day:
RBI Governor again proves that he is no better than a "Paan wala" in term of taking measures to contain inflation. P Chidambaram first failed to anticipate how much will inflation shoot-up and then suddenly took some extreme measures which even a "Rickshaw-walla" know what to do in these situations, as the last minute effort. No innovation and nothing--plain Vanila CRR hike: Another UPA Minister (at that time he was in Janata Dal of Deve Gowda) Ram Bilas Paswan, whom I saw throwing some "serious gibes" on cartelisation of steel companies on camera today......lol.......laid the foundation stone of Badarpur-Lumding hill-section in the North East in 1996, when he was the Railway Minister and the schedule time for completion was 2006. But even today not even 30% work has been completed on that route:
Anyway HAVING SAID THIS ONE THING IS SURE, THE INFLATION WILL NOW COME DOWN TO BELOW 6%, VERY FAST----I would have been happy if the FM and Governor Reddy could have devised some innovative policies instead of going for the "Rickshaw Puller Route". Just compare how the US Fed behaves and how their counterpart in India behaves--your will bow your head down in shame: But then how will the stock market behave on Monday?? Will the Bull run continue??? Will sucking of Rs.18, 500 Cr from the market have any major impact on Monday and the next week, as the markets were looking good since some days?? Would 7.5%--8% growth be sustained? Are we gradually moving towards the softer Interest Rate regime, which will spur growth? All these to the Paid Groups:
Licence fee for DTH to be cut by 40% Nivedita Mookerji Thursday, April 17, 2008
NEW DELHI: The annual licence fee for direct-to-home (DTH) broadcasting players is set to dip from the current 10% to 6% of their gross revenues, as Telecom Regulatory Authority of India (Trai) has backed the information and broadcasting (I&B) ministry’s proposal on that. However, DTH players are not likely to pass on the benefits of the reduction in licence fee to their subscribers immediately. While supporting the I&B move to cut the licence fee, Trai chairman Nripendra Misra has reminded the ministry that “the decision of the government should follow Trai’s recommendations.” In this case, the I&B ministry sent its proposaldecision to Trai on cutting the licence fee, and sought the regulator’s view. In a letter to I&B secretary, Asha Swarup, Misra wrote, “The authority has considered the decisions/ observations of the government…. As you are aware, Section 11(1) requires the authority to make recommendations on specified matters. The decisionof the government should follow Trai’s recommendation.” According to the regulator, imposing a lower licence fee on the service providers is likely to encourage higher growth. It has added that with increased growth, it would be a win-win situation for the industry and the government. Later speaking at a press conference to announce the launch of a DTH association -DOAI (DTH Operators Association of India) - Tata Sky CEO Vikram Kaushik said that since DTH is in its infancy and players are running losses, an immediate cut in tariff is unlikely.Kaushik, along with other DTH heads such as Jawahar Goel of Dish TV and Prakash Bajpai of Big TV (Anil Ambani’s Reliance group) pointed out that efforts would be made to make the platform affordable for all.
It is likely that special prices would be announced soon by various DTH platforms for bundles, bouquets and a la carte packages. Representatives of DTH players - Tata Sky, Dish TV, Bharti, Big TV and Sun TV - came together on Wednesday to form their association, in order to lobby with the regulator and the government for common causes. The association, DOAI, is expected to perform the role of telecom associations, COAI and AUSPI, in the DTH sector. After the mobile revolution, it is the turn of DTH revolution, they said. Currently, Dish TV (of the Essel group) and Tata Sky (joint venture between the Tatas and Rupert Murdoch’s Star TV) are the two main DTH players in India. Tamil Nadu-based Sun TV too launched its direct-to-home broadcasting service recently. Prasar Bharati too has been running its DTH service (DD Direct Plus), but it is a free-to-air platform. In all, there are between 5 million and 6 million DTH users in the country.Dish TV, which recently touched the 3-million subscription figure, reported a net loss of Rs 251 crore in the financial year ending March 2007. Its rival Tata Sky showed a net loss of Rs 815 crore in the corresponding period, though the service was launched in August 2006. Two more players-Big TV and Bharti-are likely to launch their DTH service soon. And, the Videocon group has also got the DTH licence. Of the 120-million TV households in India, only 70 million have cable connection. DTH is still in its infancy in India, and there’s sufficient room for growth. By the year 2015, 40% of the pay TV universe (cable TV and DTH) are likely to be DTH users, significantly up from around 5% now, according to industry projections. [From Internet]

Winning Strokes
#Suzlon Energy Ltd (Rs.9.85) hit another consecutive Buyer Freeze. The stock made a new 52 - week high today.
#Shriram EPC Ltd (Rs.10.20) hit the buyer Freeze today and then came out. We can look for targets of Rs.30/35 in the coming days. Accumulate on declines. FERA companies command high valuations in Indian bourses. It has a good order book position, and quality management.
#Buy the shares of BF Utilities Ltd near the CMP of Rs.382, for short term targets of Rs.471/491. This is a Baba Kalyani group company having huge land holdings, near Bangalore. It is also into Renewable Energy. When Suzlon Energy Ltd has been hitting continuous UC, we can look to buy this share.
If you look at the shareholding pattern of the company, you'll find that the ace investor Radhakishan Shivkishan Damani (Guru of Rakhesh Jhunjhunwala) holds 1.30% shares of the company. This makes the share extra special at the current CMP.
#The scrip of Bombay Rayon and Fashions Ltd (Rs.8.05) hit the Upper Circuit, before the AGM tomorrow. Since the stock has been shifted into BZ group by the exchanges, hence don't add fresh positions, till it comes out of this Group.
#Continue to accumulate the shares of JBF Industries Ltd (Rs.20.40), for targets above Rs.50. It is a Mukhesh Ambani acquisition story, according to the market rumours.
#The stock of Patel Enginnering Ltd (Rs.34) made a new 52 - week high today. If you remember, the scrip was recommended around Rs.15/17/19 ranges. The stock has doubled from the recommended price.

#My recommended A2Z Infra Engineering Ltd (Rs.12.50) hit another buyer Freeze, piggybacking on the EV story.
#The stock of Den Networks Ltd (Rs.44.10) today made a high of Rs.45.15. This debt free Mukhesh Ambani group company, should give decent returns over a period. Hold.
#Buy UCO Bank Ltd at Rs.13.45, for targets of Rs.19/21. Meanwhile, there were media reports that the government of India has proposed to recapitalize public sector banks (PSBs) which have emerged from the Reserve Bank of India’s (RBI’s) prompt corrective action (PCA) framework and may need additional funds to strengthen their books. It would be pertinent to mention here that the finance ministry in all probability will finalize the last round of capital infusion for PSBs early next year and will look into the requirements of each bank, especially weak ones that are still under PCA or have recently been out. The budget for FY22 had allocated ₹20,000 crore for bank recapitalization, but a large part of it is yet to be disbursed. It is expected to be released in Q4.
#The stock of Shriram EPC Ltd (Rs.11.15) went for a routine correction today, after a long run up. The new promoters are likely to bring in an open offer to acquire stake. Accumulate on declines. Also, FERA companies generally command high valuations.
#The stock of Marshall Machines Ltd today made a high of Rs.43.60. This is a new age company, and its technology can be used in the making of EVs. Hold.
#The stock of RBL Bank Ltd (Rs.139) today made a high of Rs.140.80. I'm bullish on the banking sector, since any improvement in economy will have a direct positive bearing on the Sector. We can look for targets of Rs.191/196, in the coming weeks. Hold.

Manappuram Finance Ltd today touched Rs.17.85 and is now trading at Rs.17.50. As long as the gold price does not crash, this stock is expected to move up slowly. Moreover, there is around only 2% delinquencies, and hence, there is much safety in the counter. My close sources, the company is expected to post better results in Q2FY13, compared sequentially. According to a marketman, when gold prices move up, 1stly, the NPL of the gold loan companies, start to come down, i.e the recovery rates start to move up. 2ndly, the amount which one can disclose on a similar quantum of gold, starts to move up. So overall gold prices moving up is positive and that is what the market is trying to price in.
Karnataka Bank Ltd which was recommended around Rs.78-79, today touched the 2nd target of Rs.88. In a similar way, B F Utilities Ltd touched its first target of Rs.139 (intra-day high of Rs.141)
Tuesday, December 30, 2008
Refex Refrigerants Ltd recommended during the market hours to both the Paid and Free Groups hit the buyer freeze.
My earlier recommended Energy Developments Ltd, Electrotherm Ltd, BF Utilities Ltd, Zicom Securities Ltd, HDIL, Kolte Patil Developers Ltd, etc. did well today.
Keep adding Vijay Shanti Builders Ltd, Ennore Coke Ltd, Sunflag Iron and Steels Ltd. Incidentally Kohinoor Broadcasing Corporation Ltd hit the buyer freeze.
ASM Technologies Ltd (BSE Code-->526433), which has been dubbed as mini-Infosys Technologies by me, almost hit the buyer freeze, yesterday, just on the eve of Second Fiscal Package, from the government of India. This time it is widely expected that the fiscal package from the government would include the Information Technology sector as well. Hence I had askd all to invest in the Infosys Technologies Ltd and Wipro Ltd in the morning mail.
In the same line one can also start accumulating Ram Informatics Ltd (BSE Code-->530951) at the CMP of Rs.6.22. The stock is near its 52-week low price and hence have very little downside. Kajal Devgan holds good number of shares of the company. The stock is clocking an average delivery volume of around 90% in the last few trading sessions, indicating the accumulation of the scrip by some groups of investors. If we look at the Charts we would find that the stock is in the highly oversold territory and has not broken the down the envelop pattern. Moreover, Bollinger Bands and MACD are indicating immediate rise in the price of the scrip. Also, a crossover is likely to take place which could take the scrip to around Rs.10--Rs.11 in the next few trading sessions. Besides, if we look at the results of September, 2008 quarter we would find that Ram Informatics Ltd did well, when the IT sector was going through a turmoil. In the next few months the company would do significantly well in the view of the company's expertise in the Election Management Software. During the September 2008, quarter, the company signed Citizen Services Centres agreement with the Government of Andhra Pradesh. In early December, 2008, Ram Informatics Ltd, received Work Order fromVisakhapatnam Port Trust, Information Technology Division for positioning of Software Personnel for Development and Maintenance of Visakhapatnam Port Trust Application Software for a period of Two years. This will bring greater strengths and revenues to the Company. THE COMPANY FROM THE LAST MAY, 2008 TO DECEMBER, 2008 RECEIVED A SPATE OF ORDERS WHICH WAS UNNOTICED BY THE MARKET PARTICIPANTS. THIS HOWEVER, CANNOT CONTINUE FOR LONG AND LIKE MY EARLIER RECOMMENDATION OF ASM TECHNOLOGIES, from the same sector (Information Technology or IT), which is doing absolutely fantastic, THIS SCRIP IS BOUND TO RISE ABOVE Rs.11 in the next few trading sessions.
The market moved in narrow range in early afternoon trade as some Asian markets slipped into the red from green. Higher US index futures and firm start of European bourses lifted the domestic bourses, with the Sensex surging 251.52 points or 2.63% in late trade. A sharp slide in RIL pulled the market off the higher level later.
Jaiprakash Associates (up 6.01%), Ranbaxy (up 4.09%), and Reliance Infrastructure (up 4.06%), edged higher from the Sensex pack .
