Year-end special: Influential tech gizmos
The year 2007 was good for technology fans. Whether you were largely desktop bound or constantly on the go, this year's technology products went some way towards making your life easier, more fun or more productive. But a few stood out — not necessarily because they broke new ground but because it was clear that their influence would be felt well into the future. Whether you own one of these products or not, it's likely that their presence will have an impact on how you work or play in the year to come.

Sensex, Nifty end with small gains : Sify Finance
Sensex, Nifty end with small gains
Nifty at 6950, Sensex 22880 by July 2008
India's Sensex Has Longest Winning Run
The market, despite mixed global cues, opened on a high note this morning. Barring information technology stocks, other blue chips surged higher in early trade and quite a few of them held on to their gains thanks to selective buying support even as the benchmark indices Sensex and Nifty drifted lower around noon.
As the mood turned highly cautious, large and midcap stocks had a highly choppy afternoon session today. The Sensex did manage a smart rally around mid-afternoon but declined sharply once again following a fairly strong bout of resistance.
All through this, smallcap stocks held firm thanks to sustained buying interest. The Sensex, which opened at 20,301.05 and edged up to 20,323.76 in early trade today, ended the session at 20,216.72 with a gain of 24.20 points or 0.12%, and Nifty closed with a gain of 0.18% or 10.75 points at 6081.50, around 30 points down from its intra-day high of 6110.85. While the Sensex touched a low of 20,159.73 today, the Nifty had eased to 6060.20 in afternoon trade.
Among the sectoral indices, the Consumer Durables index finished with a strong gain of 1.79%. The Bankex, FMCG, Metal and PSU indices ended stronger by 0.7% - 1% while the Power index moved up by 0.34%. BSE Oil & Gas edged up marginally while the Capital Goods index ended with a small loss. The Auto, IT, Healthcare, Realty and Teck indices lost 0.25% - 0.75%.
Though as many as 14 Sensex components ended in the positive territory, only HDFC Bank (2.8%), Wipro (2.55%), ICICI Bank (1.85%), ITC (1.85%), Tata Steel (1.55%) and Reliance Energy (1.1%) closed with sharp gains.
Hindalco, which failed to find support at higher levels, ended 0.7% up at Rs 210.80, more than Rs 5 down from its intra-day high of Rs 216.05. HDFC, ONGC, Hindustan Unilever, NTPC, Tata Consultancy Services, Maruti Suzuki and BHEL finished with marginal gains.
Tata Motors lost a little over 2%. Satyam Computer Services (down 1.7%), Reliance Communications (down 1.65%) and Bharti Airtel (down 1.65%) also declined sharply. Ranbaxy Laboratories, Larsen & Toubro, Grasim Industries, State Bank of India, Mahindra & Mahindra and Infosys Technologies lost 0.5% - 1%. Cipla, Ambuja Cements, DLF and Bajaj Auto also closed on a weak note. Reliance Industries and ACC ended with small losses.
Nalco, which shot up by 9.25%, was the biggest gainer in the Nifty pack. Idea Cellular, Suzlon Energy, SAIL, Sterlite Industries and Cairn India also ended on a firm note.
Reliance Petroleum, Sun Pharmaceuticals, HCL Technologies, Zee Entertainment, Punjab National Bank and ABB ended with sharp losses. Shipping Corporation of India vaulted 13.85% to Rs 294.35. Nirma, Mirc Electronics, CMC, Raymond, Alok Industries, HTMT Global, Tata Elxsi, Castrol India, Adani Enterprises, Rashtriya Chemicals & Fertilizers, Indo Rama Synthetics, Sterling Biotech, GE Shipping, Aventis Pharma, JSW Steel and Hinduja Ventures posted impressive gains.
Midcap stocks ISMT, Tulip IT, ABG Shipyard, Educomp Solutions, Crisil, Emami, Motherson Sumi, 3M India, India Infoline, Gujarat NRE Coke, Infotech Enterprises, Aptech, Vishal Retail, SpiceJet and REI Agro had a bright outing today.
Sagar Cements, KRBL, Kalindee Rail Nirman Engineers, ICSA, Era Constructions, Suven Life, Federal Mogul Goetze, Hindustan Organic Chemicals, Gwalior Chemicals, Inox Leisure, Cosmo Films, Nelcast, BSEL Infrastructure, Rain Commodities, Everonn Systems, Mercator Lines and Karuturi Network were among the big gainers in the Smallcap index, which shot up by 2.32% today.
Thanks to widespread buying in midcap and smallcap space, the market breadth remained pretty strong today. Out of 2953 stocks traded on BSE, 2069 stocks ended with gains. 841 stocks posted losses and 43 stocks ended at their previous closing levels.

IPOs: India 5th largest market
IPOs: India 5th largest market
Rediff India
Indian bourses saw over $8 billion worth of initial public offers in 2007, but this is just a shade higher than the world's single-largest IPO that was brought by a Russian company, latest data show.
The worldwide IPO activity raised a record capital of $255 billion till November in 2007, including $8.3 billion on Indian bourses, according to data compiled by international consultancy firm Ernst and Young.
India was the fifth largest market in terms of number of IPOs and seventh largest in terms of the proceeds for the year, E&Y said.
There were 95 IPOs in the first 11 months, while the preliminary data for the month of December shows that the total number for the year would be more than 100, it noted. China came tops with total IPO proceeds of $54.4 billion through 222 issues.
Globally, there were as many as 1,739 IPOs between January and November, while another 91 public issues are estimated to have hit the capital markets during December. The largest IPO of the year came from Russia's VTB Bank, which alone raised $8 billion.
In India, the largest IPO of the year was brought by realty giant DLF which raised about Rs 9,187.50 crore (more than $2 billion).
E&Y said the strength of India's economy, stock market, corporate profits and private equity fuelled IPOs in 2007. In the previous year, the market had seen 78 IPOs raising $7.23 billion.
The study said 14 of the top 20 IPOs were from emerging BRIC markets and the surge in Indian IPO activity was a clear reflection of the growth in the Indian economy and the investor's confidence.
Together, the four BRIC countries -- Brazil, Russia, India and China -- have raised $106.5 billion in 382 deals so far this year compared to $89.6 billion raised in 302 deals in the same period of 2006.
Asia-Pacific accounted for 46 per cent of the worldwide IPO league, ahead of Europe, the Middle East, and Africa (EMEA) which together accounted for 35 per cent and North America with 14 per cent.
EMEA and Asia-Pacific have the greatest market share of capital raised with 38 per cent and 32 per cent, respectively, eclipsing North America (16 per cent) and Central and South America (14 per cent).
Despite accounting for only 4 per cent of the total number of IPOs so far this year, HKSE was the leading exchange by capital raised, attracting a 13 per cent market share, mainly due to having some of the year's largest listings, including China CITIC Bank and China Railway.
NYSE was ranked second in terms of capital raised (11 per cent), attracting 3.6 per cent of total listings driven by a number of large US deals, including Blackstone Group and MF Global.
Although only 2 per cent of IPOs through November listed on LSE, it attracted 10 per cent of the capital raised, mainly through a few large Russian deals, including VTB Bank and Pik Group.

The year India Inc made it big.
Fantastic is the only way one could describe what 2007 has been like for Ratan Naval Tata, the chairman of Tata Group.
He led India's largest corporate house to the nation's biggest overseas acquisition on January 31, when Tata Steel -- after a long drawn battle -- pipped Brazil's CSN to acquire Anglo-Dutch steelmaker Corus for $13.2 billion. The merger created the fifth largest steel producing entity in the world.
Tata's brainchild, the Rs 1 lakh People's Car (which will be unveiled in New Delhi on January 10, 2008), was one of the most hotly discussed and debated issues of 2007. And while the Tatas get ready to launch the car in the Indian markets, the company has gone ahead and bid $2.05 billion to buy out British marquees Jaguar and Land Rover from Ford. Reports indicate that the Tatas have emerged as the preferred bidder for the two iconic brands of Ford Motors.
Also, during 2007, Tata firm Indian Hotels bought the Ritz-Carlton, Boston, while Tata Coffee acquired the US coffee chain Eight O'Clock.
The Tata Group was also named the world's third most accountable and transparent company in 2007 by Britain's One World Trust. Tata beat Coca-Cola, HSBC, PriceWaterCooopers and Google, when measured on the parameters of transparency and accountable leadership among global companies.
The annual Global Accountability Report also considered Tata Group at number 10, among the world's 30 most powerful organisations from the inter-governmental, non-governmental and corporate sector, to be accountable to civil society, affected communities and wider public.

Fantastic is the only way one could describe what 2007 has been like for Ratan Naval Tata, the chairman of Tata Group.
He led India's largest corporate house to the nation's biggest overseas acquisition on January 31, when Tata Steel -- after a long drawn battle -- pipped Brazil's CSN to acquire Anglo-Dutch steelmaker Corus for $13.2 billion. The merger created the fifth largest steel producing entity in the world.
Tata's brainchild, the Rs 1 lakh People's Car (which will be unveiled in New Delhi on January 10, 2008), was one of the most hotly discussed and debated issues of 2007. And while the Tatas get ready to launch the car in the Indian markets, the company has gone ahead and bid $2.05 billion to buy out British marquees Jaguar and Land Rover from Ford. Reports indicate that the Tatas have emerged as the preferred bidder for the two iconic brands of Ford Motors.
Also, during 2007, Tata firm Indian Hotels bought the Ritz-Carlton, Boston, while Tata Coffee acquired the US coffee chain Eight O'Clock.
The Tata Group was also named the world's third most accountable and transparent company in 2007 by Britain's One World Trust. Tata beat Coca-Cola, HSBC, PriceWaterCooopers and Google, when measured on the parameters of transparency and accountable leadership among global companies.
The annual Global Accountability Report also considered Tata Group at number 10, among the world's 30 most powerful organisations from the inter-governmental, non-governmental and corporate sector, to be accountable to civil society, affected communities and wider public.
