Capital gains tax: There's still hopeWkly Tech Analysis: Further strength above 5300
The markets moved from strength to strength for most part of the week before witnessing some profit-taking on Friday. The fact that the Sensex was able to cross 17,300 with ease signals more hope for the bulls. The 17,300-level can now be watched as a support for the current upmove. On the upside, the index is likely to target 18,000-18,300 in the coming sessions.This week, the Sensex finished with a gain of 506 points to 17,571. DLF led the gainers, up nearly 8 per cent at Rs 282. Larsen & Toubro, Reliance Communications and Sterlite rallied 7 per cent each. Infosys, Jindal Steel, ITC, Jaiprakash Associates, Tata Motors and HDFC were the other major gainers. Bharti Airtel, however, shed 3.5 per cent to Rs 265.
Next week, the Sensex is likely to face resistance around 17,800-17,870-17,945. On the downside, the index is likely to seek support around 17,340-17,270-17,195. Daily charts indicate near support around 17,480 (20-day daily moving average) and far off support around 17,021 on the weekly charts.
The NSE Nifty moved in a range of 182 points. From a low of 5,120, the index rallied to a high of 5,302, and finally settled with a gain of 143 points at 5,263.
Given the recovery in the world markets and renewed optimism among global investors, the bias continues to be positive. However, one needs to watch out for negative surprises in the form of either a surprise RBI rate action or poor monsoon for a change in bias.
The Nifty has been treading higher with support along its short-term (20-days DMA, or daily moving average), which is currently at 5,238. If the index breaks it, it could probably test its next significant support around 5,183. On the upside, the Nifty needs to close above the 5,300-mark for further strength.
From a medium-term perspective, the Nifty has considerable support around 5,100, and the upside target could be close to 5,400.
Profit Track
18 June 2010
Oriental Carbon and Chemicals:
DOCCL has reported excellent results for year ended March 2010 wherein its PAT has zoomed by nearly 300%. EPS for Q4 alone is Rs 10. Stock is trading at just 4.62XFy10 EPS which is extremely low considering that OCCL is operating in a seller's market.
Further, OCCL has started implementation of new factory in SEZ in Gujarat which should be completed in 12 months. OCCL may achieve EPS of Rs 36-38 in 2010-11 and EPS of Rs 42-44 in 2011-12. Although, share price has touched a new high, still fundamentally OCCL is underpriced considering that company will continue to do well due to buoyant demand from tyre industry, expansion underway and payment of 3 dividends in 2009-10. Book Value is Rs 90 which should rise to above Rs 120/ as on March 2011.
Our price target Rs 175 in less than 6 months and investors holding it for medium term may get much higher appreciation.
Nahar Spinning Mills
Nahar has achieved phenomenal turnaround in 2009-10 wherein Nahar has achieved PAT of 53.49 cr and CASH Profit of Rs 123 cr (after paying income tax of Rs 27 cr).
