Kingfisher buying SpiceJet??? : UTVi.com
Kingfisher buying SpiceJet?
Mumbai: Vijay Mallya's Kingfisher Airlines is close to acquiring a controlling stake in another low-cost carrier SpiceJet.The deal will value SpiceJet around $300 million dollars. It is likely to be a cash-and- share swap deal.
Mallya is likely to acquire 26% stake in SpiceJet, and make an open offer for an additional 20% stake. He is also likely to retain Spice as the low-cost carrier of Kingfisher Airlines.If the deal goes through, Mallya, through Kingfisher Airlines, Deccan and Spice, will control 40% marketshare beating Jet (along with Sahara), which has a marketshare of 33%.
It will also give Mallya the position to dominate fares in the marketplace. Currently, because of the low cost airline fares, Kingfisher and Jet are forced to sell tickets below cost.SpiceJet is a fairly well run, lean operation with the smallest loss in the industry.
Experts say it will give Kingfisher the right product in the low cost space. And, of course, access to trained manpower.What may not work too well for the two airlines is the fact that they operate different fleets. Spice flies Boeing while Kingfisher is an Airbus customer. So, there are no clear synergies in operations. Analysts say if the two airlines continue to function separately, it will not pose a big challenge for Mallya.
If the deal does fructify, it could change the aviation landscape in the country and make the airline industry more viable

Sensex ends 360 pts up as bulls return to the ring: Sify
Sensex ends 360 pts up as bulls return to the ring
Save for a brief while this morning and for a few minutes before noon, the market remained in the positive territory today thanks to some strong buying in blue chip stocks.
Despite high oil prices and hardening interest rates, the market opened on a positive note today. Capital goods, realty and power stocks surged higher on strong buying support. Stocks from other sectors too joined the rally. However, ahead of release of inflation data, the market turned a bit shaky and gave up almost all its gains in late morning trade.
The crucial meeting of the Left parties that had the withdrawal of support to the ruling coalition as a main agenda had a role to play in forcing the investors on to a defensive mood around noon.
However, neither the Left meet nor the surge in inflation (inflation rate rose to 11.63% in the 12 months to June 21, 2008, above the previous week's annual rise of 11.42%) could halt the market which started gaining ground in the positive territory this afternoon. Even as the Left meeting was on, leaders from the Samajwadi Party met the Prime Minister and expressed their support for the Indo-US civilian nuclear deal.
So strong and sustained were the buying enquiries at the blue chip counters that the benchmark BSE index Sensex gained in strength and vaulted to a high of 13,509.74 today.
The BSE barometer, which had tumbled to a low of 13,027.79 in morning trde, ended the day at 13,454 with a thumping gain of 359.89 points or 2.75%. The Nifty, which swung in a range of around 137 points - it hit a low of 3896.40 and a high of 4033.50 today - closed with a gain of 90.25 points or 2.3% at 4016.
Realty stock DLF, which had tumbled sharply yesterday after a heady rise in the previous session, bounced back into the reckoning once again. With a host of other realty stocks too surging higher on sustained buying support, the Realty barometer shot up by 7.8% today.
Capital goods, power, bank and oil stocks also finished on a positive note. While the Capital Goods index ended stronger by 6.79%, the Power and Bankex ended up by 6.1% and 3.08% respectively. The consumer durables barometer, BSE CD, moved up by 3.15%.
Select PSU, auto and IT stocks posted impressive gains. Pharma and metal stocks ended on a subdued note. Thanks to frenzied buying, several stocks from midcap and smallcap segments too advanced to higher levels and signed off on a high note.
Reliance Communications flared up by 12.5% and ended as the top gainer in the Sensex. Jaiprakash Associates closed with a big gain of 10.65%. DLF ended 8.6% up at Rs 414.65.
BHEL notched up a gain of 7.45%. Reliance Infrastructure climbed up 7.25%. Larsen & Toubro jumped 6.55% to Rs 2379.85. HDFC posted a gain of 6.2%. Ranbaxy Laboratories and ICICI Bank moved up by 4.75% and 4.7% respectively.

Sensex loses 500 pts, ends below 13k mark
Sensex loses 500 pts, ends below 13k mark
After losing nearly one thousand points in just two sessions, the Sensex had another disastrous outing today as weak global markets, political uncertainties and other negative factors such as high crude oil prices, inflation and hardening interest rates sent prices of several front line stocks crashing to new 52-week lows.
The BSE barometer, which had touched a historic high of 21,206.77 in intra-day trades on 10 January 2008, plunged to a low of 12,904.09 in late afternoon trade today. It finally settled at 12,961.88 with a massive loss of 499.92 points or 3.71%. The Nifty, which dropped down to 3878.20, ended with a loss of 143.80 points or 3.56% at 3896.75.
Realty stocks came down with a thud once again. Mirroring heavy selling in these stocks, the BSE Realty index tumbled by 7.21% today. The Bankex fell 5.62% and the Metal index lost 5.4%.
The Auto, CD and Power indices declined by 4.91%, 4.28% and 4.24% respectively. BSE Oil & Gas, Teck, CG and PSU indices lost 3% - 4%. The IT index eased by 1.74% while the Healthcare and FMCG indices slipped by 2.17% and 2.83% respectively.
NTPC, the lone gainer from the Sensex, moved up by a little over a per cent to Rs 153.20. From the Nifty pack, besides NTPC, HCL Technologies (2.85%) and Tata Communications (2.05%) closed on a positive note today.
Reliance Infrastructure and Reliance Communications went down by around 10.5% to Rs 688 and Rs 392 respectively. Mahindra & Mahindra lost 9.25%. Maruti Suzuki eased by over 8%.

BSE announces circuit breakers for July-Sept quarter
BSE announces circuit breakers for July-Sept quarter
The BSE on a quarterly basis implements the index based market wide circuit breaker system. The system is applicable at three stages of the index movement either way i.e. at 10%, 15% and 20%
The BSE on a quarterly basis implements the index based market wide circuit breaker system. The system is applicable at three stages of the index movement either way i.e. at 10%, 15% and 20%. This circuit breaker brings a trading halt in all equity and equity derivative markets nationwide.
The market wide circuit breakers would be triggered by movement of either SENSEX or the NSE S&P CNX Nifty whichever is breached earlier.
In case of a 10% movement of either of these indices, there would be a 1-hour market halt if the movement takes place before 1 p.m. In case the movement takes place at or after 1 p.m. but before 2.30 p.m. there will be a trading halt for ½ hour. In case the movement takes place at or after 2.30 p.m. there will be no trading halt at the 10% level and the market will continue trading.
In case of a 15% movement of either index, there will be a 2-hour market halt if the movement takes place before 1 p.m. If the 15% trigger is reached on or after 1 p.m. but before 2 p.m., there will be a 1 hour halt. If the 15% trigger is reached on or after 2 p.m. the trading will halt for the remainder of the day.
In case of a 20% movement of the index, the trading will be halted for the remainder of the day.
The percentages are calculated on the closing index value of the quarter. These percentages are translated into absolute points of index variations (rounded off to the nearest 25 points in case of SENSEX). At the end of each quarter, these absolute points of index variations are revised and made applicable for the next quarter.
On June 30, 2008, the last trading day of the quarter, SENSEX closed at 13,461.60 points. The absolute points of SENSEX variation (over the previous day’s closing SENSEX) which would trigger market wide circuit breaker for any day in the quarter between 1st July 2008 and 30th September 2008 would be as under:

Apr-May fiscal deficit at Rs 73,201cr : UTVi
Apr-May fiscal deficit at Rs 73,201cr
Fiscal deficit between April and May moved up to Rs 73,201 crore or 54.9% of the annual target. The deficit figure has already crossed the halfway stage for the entire year because of increased social spending.
The government has set a fiscal deficit target of Rs 1,33,000 lakh crore or 2.5% of gross domestic product for the 2008/09 fiscal year - lower than 2.8% in the previous year.
Fiscal deficit is the difference between the government's total expenditure and total receipts. The gap is financed by borrowings from the Reserve Bank of India and the markets
--------------------
Current a/c deficit narrows in Jan-March
Mumbai: The country's current account deficit narrowed to $1.04 billion in the January-March quarter from a revised deficit of $5.12 billion in the December quarter, the Reserve Bank of India said on Monday.
The deficit for the financial year ended March 2008 widened to $17.4 billion, or 1.5% of gross domestic product, from $9.8 billion, or 1.1 percent of GDP, in FY07.
The Reserve Bank of India said the balance of payments surplus in the March quarter fell to $24.99 billion from a surplus of $26.74 billion in the December quarter.
The trade deficit on a balance of payments basis narrowed to $23.8 billion in the March quarter from $25.1 billion in October-December.Net invisible receipts, which includes exports of software services and remittances by overseas Indians, were $22.8 billion in the quarter, up from $20 billion in the previous quarter.
"The current account deficit for January-March quarter suggests that the usual seasonal increase in invisibles has not kept pace with the rise in trade deficit this year, largely due to rising oil import bill," said Sonal Varma, an economist at Lehman Brothers.
India imports about 70% of its oil needs, and oil is the country's largest import.
Varma said oil prices and weakening demand for exports would widen India's trade deficit further, forecasting the current account deficit to widen to 3% of gross domestic product in FY09 from 1.5% in FY08.
Earlier this month, Arvind Virmani, the finance ministry's chief economic advisor, said there was only a very low probability the current account deficit would exceed 2.5 percent of GDP over the next four years."India should still get sufficient capital inflows to cover the current account deficit, but the overall balance of payments surplus is likely to moderate to $18 billion in FY09 from $92.2 billion," Varma said.
A current account deficit indicates the economy is drawing upon the savings of other economies to fund its investment.

Sensex plummets 341 points
