A view on Automobile Sector

India's automobile industry is an industry which has steadily increased and the money invested in the shares of the companies of this industry has increased manifold. As we take the example of Maruti Suzuki or Bosch Limited or TVs Motors or even Hero Moto Corp. One of the biggest reasons for the increase in automobile sector is the increase in spending capacity of the people. Today you will definitely see a motorcycle in any home. Motorcycle cycle is one of the basic necessity of today's time. If I talked about some major changes, then banning of BS-3 vehicles was a major change. At the time the Supreme Court ordered this, all the companies had sold their vehicles at a discounted price. Prolonged pressure in crude oil prices was also a major reason for the growth of the automobile industry, because the pressure on crude oil prices is considered good for tyre companies. Another change is in taxation, which is GST, it was a change that made the sector even stronger, contrib...

Stock market trading is driven by only two factors fear and greed. Trading is a pure speculation of the price in a very short span of time. One has to be a master in this art and should follow strict rules to remain profitable. India is a country of festivals, almost every month there is some festival being celebrated in some part of the country. But there are several festival which is celebrated in larger part of the country like Holi, Diwali, and Durga puja. All these seasons sees a drop in numbers of retail traders.

India: Growth Slow Down (A note on GDP)

Indian economy slowed down significantly in the first quarter of FY2017, which is worst in last three years exactly the same years Modi government is in center. According to recently released data GDP expanded a weak 5.7% annually in Q1 FY 2017, which was sharply below the 6.1% increase in Q4 FY 2016. All those analyst who were forecasting a healthy growth rate now are vanished and our finance minister is accepting that this is a matter of concern. The probable reason of this slow down can be demonetization or implementation of GST. Export growth slowed notably from 10.3% in Q4 FY 2016 to 1.2% in FY 2017, the worst result since Q4 FY 2015.
