CIRP Clouds MEP Infrastructure, Even Amid Rumoured ₹8,000 Crore Pipeline. ~Sumon Mukhopadhyay  ---------------------------------- My observation: 🔹One of my sources mentioned that MEP Infrastructure Ltd (₹1.55) may have an order book of over ₹8,000 crore , though this figure remains rumoured and unverified . 🔹The company could not publish its quarterly results because it is currently under CIRP (Corporate Insolvency Resolution Process) . 🔹CIRP operates under the Insolvency and Bankruptcy Code (IBC), 2016 , which replaced the earlier Corporate Debt Restructuring (CDR) framework after it failed to resolve large NPAs effectively. 🔹Interestingly, MEP has historically been active in toll collection, EPC contracts, and hybrid annuity projec ts—sectors that continue to receive strong government push. If the ₹8,000 crore pipeline includes such projects, it could be a strategic asset for any potential acquirer. 🔹Market watchers are also speculating whether this pipeline includes ...

  The Dollar’s Untouchable Era Is Crumbling. ~Sumon Mukhopadhyay. ----------------------- For decades, the U.S. dollar has enjoyed an unchallenged reign—backed not by gold, but by blind global trust and foreign central banks hoarding U.S. Treasuries like sacred relics. That trust is now eroding! As of June 2025, China’s U.S. Treasury holdings dropped to $757.2 billion (down 5% from 2024), and India’s fell to $227 billion (a 3% shave). This isn’t routine portfolio rebalancing—it’s a calculated retreat from bankrolling America’s fiscal recklessness. It’s a strategic retreat from subsidizing America’s fiscal indiscipline The U.S. prints dollars to fund deficits, weaponizes its currency through sanctions, and expects the world to keep buying its debt. But now, the world is pushing back. India’s gold reserves surged by 39.22 tonnes in 2024, hitting 853.64 tonnes, while China pushes yuan-based trade and BRICS currency frameworks. The signal is unmistakable: the dollar’s divine stat...

Lower Taxes, Bigger Lending: GST Cut to Turbocharge Paisalo Digital Ltd. ~Sumon Mukhopadhyay  ------------------------------------- India’s proposed GST rate rationalization—reducing slabs to 5% and 18% while eliminating 12% and 28%—is expected to indirectly support Paisalo Digital Ltd (Rs.30.95)  a leading NBFC specializing in small-ticket loans and mobility financing.  With major consumer goods, including two-wheelers, auto rickshaws, and other mobility products, moving to lower tax brackets, these vehicles are likely to become more affordable, especially in price-sensitive rural and semi-urban markets where Paisalo operates via its extensive network of over 970 service points.  Higher vehicle demand could, in turn, drive growth in Paisalo’s mobility and small income-generation loans, expanding its lending portfolio and revenue potential.  Additionally, simplified GST compliance may reduce operational costs for Paisalo’s small business clients, enhancing repay...
