Mkts end higher led by short covering; shrug off rate hike

It was a smart pull back rally for the markets on strong volumes in last one hour of trade after remained volatile for major part of the day, ahead of F&O expiry day for the month of June. It was mainly because of short covering in the F&O market, which has started in yesterday's trade. It shrugged off completely the effect of RBIs move, which hiked Repo rate and CRR by 50 bps each yesterday. Rally in late trade led by oil, telecom, and select metal, IT and capital goods stocks. Midcap and small cap stocks also bounced back.

Markets had witnessed sharp sell off in opening trade due to RBI's move but managed to show sharp recovery in the first one hour of trade itself and turned into choppy mode since then. The Nifty went below 4100 mark and the Sensex below 14000 in early trade. But due to smart buying support and short covering in F&O, markets jumped up in late trade.

The Sensex has recovered nearly 488 points and the Nifty 159 points from day's low of 13,731.54 and 4093.20, respectively. The Nifty closed at 4252.65, up 61.55 points or 1.47% and the Sensex at 14,220.07, up 113.49 points or 0.8% after hitting an intraday high of 4264.55 and 14,248.65.

Main contributors in today's rally were Reliance Industries, Reliance Comm, Bharti Airtel, Tata Steel, BHEL, TCS, DLF and ONGC.Amongst frontliners, Unitech was up 7.87%, Reliance Communication 7.30%, Tata Steel 4.43%, DLF 4.30% and Reliance Infrastructure 4.17% while HDFC lost -4.29%, Wipro -2.91%, Cipla -2.54%, Infosys -2.48% and Power Grid Corp -2.76%.

Working from home she runs a Rs one crore company: Rediff Special

Working from home she runs a Rs one crore company

That's very easy," laughs Namita Sibal when asked how she manages both business and family. The 35-year-old mother of two, along with friend Manisha Gupta started indianartcollectors.com a Web site that acts as a platform between art collectors and artists/painters.

Her day begins at 6.30. After packing off her kids to school and husband to office ("husbands are like children too", she chuckles) by 9.30 she gets back to work. Two hours of web surfing later she goes to the gym for an hour.

By the time her children come back home at 2.30 pm she has almost done a good part of her job.
"It is such an easy business model and that's why I opted for it," she says about indianartcollectors. In just three years this team of two has notched revenue of Rs 60 lakh just by helping get art collectors (buyers) and artists (sellers) together. They estimate to end the year 2008 with a revenue of Rs one crore says an emphatic Namita.

Here she discusses the story behind Indianartcollectors and how the business actually works with rediff.com's Prasanna D Zore.
