Macro highlights before RBI reviews Mid-Term Policy
The Reserve Bank of India today released the document `Macroeconomic and Monetary Developments: Mid-Term Review 2007-08` to serve as a backdrop to the Mid-Term Review of the Annual Policy Statement for 2007-08, going to be announced on Oct. 30, 2007.
The highlights of macroeconomic and monetary developments during 2007-08 so far are:
The Real Economy
The Indian economy continued to maintain strong growth momentum during the first quarter of 2007-08, underpinned by sustained performances of the manufacturing and services sectors. According to the estimates released by the Central Statistical Organisation (CSO) in August 2007, real GDP growth was 9.3 % during the first quarter of 2007-08 as compared with 9.6 % during the same period in 2006-07.
The cumulative rainfall during the South-West monsoon season 2007 (June to September) was 5 % above normal as compared with one % below normal during the corresponding period of the previous year. The area coverage of kharif crops has increased during 2007-08 (as on October 12, 2007) with reported sown area of 104.7 % of the normal, which was about 3.1 % higher than the previous year.
During April-August 2007, the index of industrial production rose by 9.8 % as compared with a growth of 11.0 % recorded during the corresponding period of the previous year. The manufacturing sector registered a growth of 10.3 % during April-August 2007 on top of 12.2 % during April-August 2006.
During April-August 2007, the infrastructure sector recorded a growth of 6.6 % as compared with 8.3 % a year ago, with five of the six core infrastructure industries registering a deceleration. The electricity sector was the only sector which recorded a higher growth than a year ago.

Mukesh Ambani elbows out Gates as richest
Five richest people in the world with their net worth 1. Mukesh Ambani ($63.2 billion) 2. Carlos Slim Helu ($62.2993 billion) 3. William (Bill) Gates ($62.29 billion) 4. Warren Buffett ($55.9 billion) 5. Lakshmi Mittal ($50.9 billion)
29 Oct, 2007, 1800 hrs IST, PTI, NEW DELHI: Billionaire Mukesh Ambani on Monday became the richest person in the world, surpassing American software czar Bill Gates, Mexican business tycoon Carlos Slim Helu and famous investment guru Warren Buffett, courtesy the bull run in the stock market. Following a strong share price rally on in his three group companie, India's most valued firm Reliance Industries, Reliance Petroleum and Reliance Industrial Infrastructure Ltd, the net worth of Mukesh Ambani rose to $63.2 billion (Rs 2,49,108 crore). In comparison, the net worth of both Gates and Slim is estimated to be slightly lower at around $62.29 billion each, with Slim leading among the two by a narrow margin.
Warren Buffett, earlier the third richest in the world, also dropped one position with a net worth of about $56 billion. Ambani's wealth of about Rs 2,49,000 crore includes about Rs 2,10,000 crore from RIL (50.98 per cent stake), Rs 37,500 crore from RPL (37.5 per cent) and Rs 2,100 crore from RIIL (46.23 per cent). Slim's wealth has been calculated on the basis of his stake in companies like America Movil (30 per cent), Carso Global (82 per cent), Grupo Carso (75 per cent), Inbursa (67 per cent), IDEAL (30 per cent) and Saks Inc (10 per cent). According to information available with the US and Mexican stock exchanges where these companies are listed, Slim currently holds shares worth a total of $62.2993 billion, with more than half coming from Latin American mobile major America Movil. Slim is closely followed by Gates with a net worth of $62.29 billion currently.
Earlier last month, US business magazine Forbes had named Gates as the richest American with a net worth of $59 billion, calculated as on August 30. The magazine had said that a movement of two dollars in the share price for Microsoft, the world's biggest software maker, could "add or subtract a billion dollars" from his wealth.
Since August-end, Microsoft's share price has risen by $6.58 (based on yesterday's closing on Nasdaq at $35.03), which results into a gain of $3.29 billion in Gates' wealth based on Forbes assumption. Besides a stake in Microsoft, Gates' wealth also includes the commission and license fees earned by him and gains through his shares in an investment holding company that invests across the market. Gates is followed by Buffett at the fourth place in the league of the world's richest with a net worth of $55.9 billion through his holding in his investment vehicle Berkshire Hathaway and in other companies.
At the end of August, Buffett's wealth stood at $52 billion, as per the Forbes magazine. Berkshire Hathaway's share price has gained by about 7.5 per cent since then. Earlier on September 26, Ambani had overtaken steel czar Lakshmi Mittal to become the richest Indian in the world. Mittal currently ranks as the fifth richest in the world with a net worth of $50.9 billion through his 44.79 per cent stake in world's biggest steel maker ArcelorMittal. While most of Mittal's wealth comes from his steel empire, though he has also spread his wings into businesses like oil and real estate, those of Ambani and Gates are mostly through petrochemicals and software respectively. However, Buffett and Slim are making money from investments across a host of sectors

20K......20K......20K..........
Sensex hits a new high past 20k, ends 735 pts up
Current Change
Strong global markets, impressive results from some top notch companies and expectations of a cut in bank rates triggered a massive rally on the major Indian bourses today. As stocks cutting across sectors surged higher on sustained buying support, the benchmark BSE index Sensex created yet another record when it vaulted past the 20,000 mark for the first ever time in history.
The benchmark, which needed no more than five sessions to vault from 18,000 to 19,000 took a comparatively longer period for its next 1,000 points jump. However, considering the fact that it had plunged to as low as 17,171.45 on 22 October 2007, a week after scaling the 19k peak, its feat is simply incredible, to say the least. From that low on 22 October 2007, the Sensex has spurted over 2800 points in a short span of six sessions.
The market regulator's restrictions on investments through Participatory Notes notwithstanding, stock prices have been moving up quite sharply over the past few sessions.
After opening on a buoyant note at 19,621.39, a positive gap of over 375 points, the Sensex sailed past 19,900 around noon thanks to strong buying in capital goods, oil, bank and telecom stocks. Auto and information technology stocks joined the rally a little later. Hectic buying was seen in several midcap and smallcap stocks as well.
Though the barometer remained a bit listless as it neared the magical figure of 20,000, it finally crossed that milestone during the fag end of the session today. While the Sensex closed with a whopping gain of 734.50 points or 3.82% at 19,977.67, around 47 points down from its new all-time high of 20,024.87, the broader 50 stock Nifty index of the National Stock Exchange, which hit a new high at 5922.50, settled at 5905.90 with a gain of 3.57% or 203.60 points.
Mirroring the sharp surge in prices of key capital goods stocks, the BSE CG index moved up by as much as 7.05% today. The Oil & Gas index gained a little over 5%. The Bankex ended stronger by 3.66% while the PSU index, which consists of several bank stocks, closed with a gain of 3.44%.
The Consumer Durables, Metal, Realty, FMCG and Healthcare indices ended higher by 1% - 3%. The IT, Teck and Auto indices surged 0.84%, 0.88% and 0.7% respectively.
Excellent results and huge expansion plans of the company kept the Larsen & Toubro stock high up in the positive territory right through the session today. The stock, which raced to a new all-time high of Rs 4300, ended at Rs 4277.45 with a hefty gain of 10.35%. BHEL (7.45%) too had a highly profitable outing.
Housing finance major HDFC gained 9.65%. ONGC (7.15%), HDFC Bank (6%), ICICI Bank (5.5%) and Reliance Industries (5.05%) also contributed significantly to the gains of the benchmark indices today.
Reliance Energy moved up by around 3.1%. NTPC, Wipro, Satyam Computer Services, State Bank of India, Reliance Communications and Hindustan Unilever gained 1% - 2%. ITC, Grasim Industries, Infosys Technologies and Maruti Suzuki ended with modest gains. Hindalco and ACC finished with small gains.
Ambuja Cements, Bharti Airtel, Dr. Reddy's Laboratories, Cipla and Tata Consultancy Services settled around their previous closing levels. Bajaj Auto, Mahindra & Mahindra, Ranbaxy Laboratories and Tata Motors eased by 0.4% - 0.7%. Tata Steel, traded on ex-rights basis, ended at Rs 900.90.
Siemens (up 11.8% to Rs 1930.70) was the biggest gainer in the Nifty index. Reliance Petroleum vaulted 9.7% to Rs 221.80. MTNL, SAIL, Unitech, Tata Power, VSNL, Punjab National Bank, Suzlon Energy, ABB, GAIL India, Nalco, GlaxoSmithKline Pharma and Sun Pharmaceuticals closed with strong gains. Zee Entertainment, HCL Technologies and Hero Honda also posted notable gains.
LIC Housing Finance skyrocketed nearly 31.5% to Rs 360.30 today. Jindal Saw hit the 20% upper limit. Engineers India, Gujarat Gas, Alfa Laval, Dredging Corporation, Bombay Dyeing, Gujarat Industries & Power, Punjab Lloyd, Jindal Steel and Maharashtra Seamless closed on a high note.
MRF, Texmaco, Bosch Chasis Systems, GIC Housing, Dewan Housing, PSL, LGB Brothers, Canfin Homes, Ashapura Minechemicals, Suashis Diamonds, Gujarat NRE Coke, Shanthi Gears and Reliance Natural Resources ended with huge gains.
Sensex retreats a bit; MRF, Texmaco soar @ 13:03 hrs
Notwithstanding a few wild swings in prices of a few front line stocks, the benchmark indices Sensex and the Nifty remain high up in the positive territory this afternoon.
While the Sensex, which is on the verge of scaling the 19,000 mark, is up with a gain of 650.21 points or 3.38% at 19,893.38, the Nifty, which crossed the 5900 mark and hit a high of 5913.75 earlier in the day, has recorded a gain of 3.21% or 183 points at 5885.30 at present.
Capital goods stocks remain the favourites of investors today. Mirroring the sharp surge in prices of a host of stocks in the capital goods space, the BSE CG has vaulted as much as 7.25% now.
Oil, PSU, bank, auto, realty and telecom stocks have also posted strong gains. Buying remains a bit selective in consumer durables and pharma sectors. IT stocks, despite opening on a firm note, have turned subdued due to a surging rupee.
Midcap stock MRF remains firmly locked at the 20% upper circuit at Rs 6748.6. Texmaco has jumped 18.5% to Rs 1365. Ashapura Minechemicals has gained a little over 15% at Rs 327.30.
Engineers India, extending last week's smart rise, has gained 12.5% today. Jindal Saw, Alfa Laval, Dredging Corporation, Gujarat NRE Coke, Shopper's Stop, LIC Housing Finance, Bharat Bijlee and Bombay Dyeing have gained 8% - 12%.
Monsanto, Everest Kanto Cylinder, Jagran Prakashan, Nagarjuna Construction Company, Finolex Cables, Shriram Transports, ABG Shipyard and Allcargo Global are among the other big gainers in the midcap index.
Among smallcap stocks, Nesco, Bosch Chasis Systems, LGB Brothers, Mather Pumps, Techno Electrical Engineering, Shanthi Gears, Suashish Diamonds, Mukta Arts, Valecha Engineering, Kanoria Chemicals, Viceroy Hotels, Dewan Housing, Info Media, Zandu Pharmaceuticals, Hercules Hoist, Numeric Power Systems, Indo Tech Transformers and Disa India are among the big gainers today
