Gravitas India IPO Review
Investors can consider giving the IPO from lead metal recycler, Gravitas India, a miss on account of the company's weak operational track record, and forays into foreign markets such as Ghana, Senegal, and Ethiopia without the desired stability in its domestic operations. The company also faces significant headwinds in terms of tightening primary lead prices, which could translate into higher raw material costs and margin pressures.
Dewan Housing Finance
Fresh investments with a more-than-two-year-horizon can be considered in the stock of Dewan Housing Finance, a non-banking finance company that extends loans predominantly to lower and middle-income groups and has presence in Tier-II and Tier-III cities.
Piramal Healthcare Ltd
Shareholders can remain invested in the stock of Piramal Healthcare in the near-term. With its key cash cow sold to Abbott Labs, the stock's current valuations largely take support from the cash value on its books.
EID Parry
The stock of EID-Parry offers a good investment proposition for investors with a two/three-year holding period, as it trades at a deep discount to the intrinsic value of its sugar and farm input businesses put together.
Buy Gold this Diwali
Buying gold during Diwali is considered auspicious. But is it only superstition or has the ‘yellow' metal really brought riches for its buyers? Well, investors who bet on gold for capital appreciation have made money, if the trend in the last five years is anything to go by. The price of gold has gone up from Rs 875/gm during Diwali 2006 to around Rs 1,968/gm now, appreciating at about 22 per cent annually on a compounded basis over the last four years.
