  Real Estate Sector in India Given their comfortable leverage, consistent rise in location-agnostic demand, and declining inventory levels, most brokerages expect listed real estate majors to get good buying support. According to the real estate data and analytics platform PropEquity, the sector grossed sales of 149 million square feet (msf) in the top seven cities in the October-December quarter (third quarter, or Q3) of FY23 – the High quarterly sales in a decade. Sales grew 34% year on year (YoY) to 412 msf in the nine months ending December. Strong sales, driven by high demand and increased affordability, aided in reducing inventory levels. Unsold inventory levels fell to 839 msf in December 2022, down from 923 msf in December 2021. Besides, many analysts believe that interest rate cycle has probably peaked out.  In such circumstances, the prudent investors should buy the stocks of beaten down good real estate companies.  P.N: I don't upload the blog too often becaus...

  I continue to remain Bullish in Textile Yarn companies Last week, cotton prices had recorded a sharp decline in India and the world. However, North India’s cotton prices improved yesterday after a crash in ICE cotton on Friday.  The domestic cotton prices recovered around 1-2% due to improved buying at lower prices Moreover, Turkey is known as the hub of spinning mills and it got affected by the earthquake.  Therefore Indian Mills are receiving more trade enquiries from Turkey as well as European nations.  Therefore, the fall in cotton prices from their peak and the China+1 policy will benefit Indian spinning companies. Please continue to hold Nahar Spinning Mills Ltd (Rs.273.35) and Nitin Spinners Ltd (Rs.225.10).

  Market Mantra The BSE is now trading at 60,516.48 up 423.51 points (+0.70%), while the Nifty was last seen at 18,007.25 up 112.40 points (+0.63%). However, this green tick in the indices belies the bigger sell off in the broader market. #Today the shares of Zomato Ltd (Rs.50.70 ) broke Rs.52/53 ranges. Hence I would suggest to avoid fresh buying, unless it gives a closing above Rs.52.70. Put SL at Rs.47 on closing basis. I'm finding some pattern in selling. I had tagged SEBI and Mr.Kirit Somaya on Twitter and asked them to look into the matter. Ironically, the shares of Zomato Ltd is getting sold off at a time when Nationwide Lockdowns have been lifted and intense cold is preventing people from going out. In such a weather it is just a no brainer to think that people will order food through mobile, for home delivery. Moreover, 1 Million plus order on the new year day is not a joke. Even if we take a minimum of Rs.10 as the average net margin per order, the profit could be in cror...
  Market Mantra The benchmark Nifty is down 60.20 points to 17,828.45 after the FPIs went for heavy selling yesterday. However, the Nifty should hold 17,200 on the downside as there are no major negative news on the inflation front. The action should now depend on stock selection, as the days of low hanging fruits 🍓🍓🍑🍑 are probably over. Those who have experience in the market will survive, the rest are likely to burn their fingers.  Those who have a portfolio size of around Rs.2 lakhs can join my profit sharing scheme of 60:40, between you and my consultancy. The stocks will be chosen basically on fundamental basis, though technical angle can't also be overlooked.  #Accumulate the shares of Nahar Spinning Mills Ltd near Rs.281, for targets of Rs.320/350. SL: Rs.257. Drastic fall in the price of cotton is positive for the textile companies. #The stock of Indowind Energy Ltd (Rs.15.70) hit another lower circuit today probably on the fear that the company would become ...

Market Mantra  Yesterday, the S&P BSE Sensex, fell 304.18 points, or 0.50%, to 60,353.27, while the Nifty50 fell 50.80 points to 17,992.15 or 0.28%. Today also the Nifty is down 49.65 (0.28%). The indices are going for seasonal adjustments, post a massive Bull run --medium to long term investors need not worry. Investors were concerned after the Dow Jones fell as the US Federal Reserve's December monetary policy meeting increased apprehensions, that the US central bank will continue to raise interest rates in the future. Yesterday, the U.S. stocks sank after economic data showed private payrolls rose more than expected last month and weekly jobless claims fell to a three-month low, pointing to continued tightness in the labor market despite higher interest rates. But the point is that we can't draw such staight forward conclusions, simply by looking at the US Jobs data while ignoring other economic matrices, like job cuts,  contraction in the US economy (Two consecutive qu...
  Market Mantra #Buy the shares of Mukhesh Ambani Company, TV18 Broadcast Ltd near the CMP of Rs.37.20, for short term targets of Rs.41/42, SL: Rs.35. Triggers : Analysts believe that amendments to the new tariff order (NTO 2.0), combined with industry consolidation, will keep broadcasting stocks buoyant in the short term. Furthermore, as raw material costs decline for the majority of business enterprises in the second half of the current fiscal year (H2FY23), it is expected that advertising spending will increase in the following quarters. #Buy the shares of A2Z Infra Engineering Ltd near the CMP of Rs.10, for short term targets of Rs.17/19.

Piramal Pharma Solutions Ltd (Rs.16.65): Highly Undervalued? In August last year, the National Company Law Tribunal approved the demerger of Piramal Enterprises' (PEL) pharma business and the simplification of the company's corporate structure. The order paved the way towards creation of two separate listed entities Piramal Enterprises Ltd (NBFC) and Piramal Pharma Ltd (PPL). It is to be noted that the demerger plan of Piramal Enterprises was approved by the company’s board a year ago after PE biggie Carlyle Group invested about $540 million for a 20% equity stake in Piramal Pharma in 2020.  Now, let do some simple arithmetic, $540 million = Rs.4428 Cr. This much amount was paid for 20% stake in Piramal Pharma Solutions Ltd (Rs.16.65) by PE biggie Carlyle Group in 2020. Which means the approximate valuation of Piramal Pharma Ltd = Rs.22,140 Cr in 2020 or 3 - years back. Ironically, this is against the current market cap of Rs.13,681 Cr. ================== However, as mentioned ...
Winning Strokes The Indian stock indices tanked ferociously on the last two days of Trading on renewed fears of the rise in Covid-19 cases,C in China and elsewhere. On last Friday, the BSE Sensex closed at 59,845.29 down 980.93 points (-1.61%), while the Nifty ended the day  at17,806.80 down by a massive 320.55 points (-1.77%). However, the Covid-19 fears were too much exaggerated and the selling basically came from the panic stricken retail investors, since DIIs were net buyers to the tune of Rs.3398.98 Cr, while FIIs net sold Rs.706.84 Cr. This week we are expected to resume, 2nd phase of the much anticipated rally which fizzled out last week. The Indian media channels should be careful before showing events on sensitive issues. Their irresponsible behaviour in the last week caused immense pain to the retail investors. However, the things are not that gloomy as was projected by the media channels last week. We're probably at the last phase of US rate hike cycle. This month, the F...
