Parent’s show of strength boosts Thomas Cook A series of positive developments helped shares of tour operator Thomas Cook (India) jump Around the same time last year, the business was dull as a result of the global financial crisis and the subsequent Mumbai terror attacks. But what appears to have helped the counter on Monday was the strong set of numbers put out by the company’s European parent Thomas Cook for the full year ended September 30, 2009. Thomas Cook (India) touched an intra-day high of Rs 67 and low of Rs 59.70 before closing at Rs 64.75 on BSE. Institutional buying lifts Man Aluminium After two sessions of harsh selling, institutional investors started buying shares of Man Aluminium at lower prices in sizeable quantities. Man Aluminium shares were pounded on bourses last week (post-reports of Dubai debt debacle) as investors feared Dubai Bank PJSC, which holds 4.3% in the Indian aluminium company, would dump its India equity holdings, including Man Aluminium, to make good their losses in Dubai. Firm aluminium prices also supported the shares of the company. The near-month aluminium contract on MCX was trading at Rs 93.25 per kilo, up by Rs 0.70 from Friday’s close. Shares of Man Aluminium ended 1.9% higher at Rs 42.90 on the BSE on Monday. Earnings growth hopes trigger demand in Marico Institutional investors have been active in the Marico counter on hopes of better prospects for the company, after a leading Mumbai-based broking house said the company would sustain earnings growth amid national rollout of new products. In its research report, the broking house said the company’s strategy to reinvest savings in brands will help it post better volume growth even as the topline would moderate due to diminishing price growth. Recently, FII Arisaig Partners acquired nearly 17 lakh Marico shares to raise its stake to 5.2% through open market purchases. The stock has been seeing some action in the current market though it has underperformed the recent bull run. Marico closed marginally up at Rs 103.5 on Monday. The delivery ratio, which reflects long-term investor interest in a particular stock, has been healthy between 45 to 65% during the past few days.

Stimulus pushes Q2 GDP up 7.9% Y-O-Yr
Stimulus pushes Q2 GDP up 7.9% Y-O-Yr
NEW DELHI: India's economy grew an annual 7.9 percent in the September quarter, much faster than expected on government stimulus spending and a
surge in manufacturing, adding pressure on the central bank to lift interest rates as inflation rises. ( Watch )
The annual growth for India's fiscal second quarter was far above a median forecast of 6.3 percent in a Reuters poll as agricultural output performed better than expected, sending the yield on the benchmark 10-year bond up by 2 basis points as investors bet on higher interest rates. The growth was the strongest for Asia's third-largest economy in 18 months. ( Watch )
"This data could be a green light for the Reserve Bank of India to hike rates, and there are greater chances of this by end of the calendar year. The exit from the fiscal stimulus by the government may also be earlier post the GDP data," said Robert Prior-Wandesforde, senior Asia economist at HSBC in Singapore.
In the June quarter, India's economy grew 6.1 percent from a year earlier, and Prior-Wandesforde said that by his calculation the September's period's growth was the sharpest on a quarter-by-quarter basis since quarterly data began in 1996.
Manufacturing output expanded 9.2 percent in the September quarter as consumers stepped up purchases of cars and other goods. Farm output was up 0.9 percent, beating expectations for a decline, although economists warned that the impact of the poor monsoon was likely to be seen in the current quarter.
"The December quarter will show agriculture declining, because that's when the harvest shortfall will get captured," said Rajeev Malik, economist at Macquarie in Singapore, who stuck with his view that the central bank would deploy liquidity management steps rather than rate hikes in December and January.
"I don't think they (RBI) are going to be swung by what agriculture has done on a technical basis," he said. Last week, India's finance minister expressed worry about rising food prices -- the result of a bad summer monsoon and floods that have crimped farm output.
On Monday, however, a top government advisor said there were no serious inflation concerns for now and said he expected no change in government stimulus policy for the current fiscal year. "It is difficult to project what will happen in the rest of the year. But this performance does suggest that there may well have to be an upward revision in the GDP growth of 6.5 percent which has been projected so far," Montek Singh Ahluwalia, deputy chairman of India's Planning Commission.

*******************************************India's Q2 GDP at 7.9%
Belying predictions, the Indian economy grew by a significant 7.9 per cent in the second quarter of this fiscal, up from 6.1 per cent in the previous quarter, essentially due to a good showing by the industry and the services sector.
The growth compares favourably to 7.7 per cent recorded in the July-September quarter in the previous year.
Consequently, the economy rose by 7 per cent in the first half ending September 30 of the current fiscal on the back of stimulus packages and revival of domestic demand, giving hopes that final figures for the year could be much higher.
The government, including Finance Minister Pranab Mukherjee, the Reserve Bank and the Planning Commission had predicted a growth of about 6-7 per cent, while global agencies and analysts forecast it to be even lower.
The Prime Minister's economic advisory panel had pegged the economy to grow by around 6.1% in Q2 due to the impact of a weak monsoon on agriculture.
Financing, agriculture and real estate growth stood at 7.7% in Q2. The surge in GDP numbers was helped by the manufacturing sector, which grew 9.2% in the second quarter vi-a-vis 5.1% a year earlier.
Analysts were expecting a growth rate of 6.1-6.6 per cent in the second quarter. The economic growth of close to eight per cent in the second quarter is also remarkable in the context of just 0.9 per cent expansion in farm production due to a weak monsoon and continued contraction in exports due to slackening demand overseas.
However, the manufacturing sector grew by 9.2 per cent in the July-September period compared to 5.1 per cent in the corresponding period of last fiscal and mining and quarrying by 9.5 per cent versus 3.7 per cent recorded in FY09.
Community, social and personal services expanded by double digit at 12.7 per cent against nine per cent. Despite being affected by international slowdown, trade, hotels, transport and communication sector grew by 8.5 per cent, which is lower than 12.1 per cent a year ago.
Financing, insurance, real estate, and business services rose by 7.7 per cent against 6.4 per cent. Electricity, gas and water supply was up 7.4 per cent compared to 3.8 per cent. Construction rose by 6.5 per cent, down over 9.6 per cent a year ago.
It was after September, that growth declined to 5.8 per cent in the subsequent two quarters last year. So, if the trend continues, the growth rate is expected to be much higher in the second half of this fiscal.
The size of the domestic economy stood at Rs 17.90 lakh crore in the first half of FY10.
The Reserve Bank deputy governor Subir Gokarn said, "clearly this is better news than we could have expected and we will have to review the forecast for the year as a whole."
The Prime Ministers' Economic Council chairman C Rangarajan also said that the target of 6.5 per cent GDP growth for the current fiscal may have to be revised upwards following the robust second quarter numbers."
With this, the domestic economy continues to be the second fastest growing large economy in the world after China, which recorded 8.9 per cent in the July-September of 2009.
As hopes of revival accentuates after the data, economists expect that the government may now think of withdrawing the fiscal stimulus. "The government could withdraw stimulus (excise duty cuts) for fast-growing sectors as the Centre's revenue position does not look too good," Crisil principal economist DK Joshi said.
Manufacturing, which drew benefits of the stimulus package, expanded by a smart 9.2 per cent against 3.4 per cent in the preceding quarter and 5.1 per cent in the second quarter of the last fiscal.
However, Ahluwalia said,"my views have always been that we should look at the position (stimulus) at close to February."
From last December through March 2009, the Centre had cut excise duty by six per cent and service tax by two per cent, besides stepping up plan expenditure to generate demand, which slowed down after the US financial icon Lehman Brothers collapsed last year, dragging the whole world into the worst recession after the Great Depression of the 1930s. Positive growth by the farm sector also surprised economists. "We are surprised with agriculture growth. If not a downslide, we expected a decline at least," HDFC chief economist Abheek Barua said.
However, some economists still maintain their under-seven per cent forecast for FY10. "We yet maintain our 6.5 per cent GDP forecast," Yes Bank chief economist Shubhada Rao said.
With growth on the upswing, the moot question now is will the government and RBI now shift their focus on controlling inflation. Food inflation has already crossed 15 per cent during the second week of November.
While Ahluwalia said traditional monetary tools of the RBI may not be effective in curbing food inflation, Rangarajan believes that RBI may now focus more on reining inflation.
Both Joshi said, "there is a strong possibility of interest rate hike by the RBI in January." Barua also said a case for a rate hike remains. "With respect to monetary policy action, clearly this strong GDP number gives a green signal for some tightening and we maintain our earlier call of a CRR hike by 50 bps by December-January."
Construction, which has a cascading effect on economy, grew less this quarter at 6.5 per cent against 7.1 per cent Q1 and 9.6 per cent in Q2 last fiscal. But financial, business services and realty rose by 7.7 per cent against 8.1 per cent in Q1 and 6.4 per cent in Q2 FY09.
Trade hotels, transport and communication, grew higher at 8.5 per cent than 8.1 per cent in Q1, but lower than 12.1 per cent in Q2 FY09. However, electricity, gas and water supply at 7.4 per cent and mining and quarrying at 9.5per cent grew more than first Q1 of FY10 and Q2 of FY09.

Top 5 picks | Mid-term picks for the day

The market turned weak on the cusp of settlement and made a partial recovery in the first session of the December settlement. The Nifty ended with a net week-on-week loss of 2.2 per cent, closing at 4,941.75 points while the Sensex was down 2.3 per cent at 16,632 points. The Defty lost 2.5 percent with the rupee losing ground.
Breadth was decent in that a wide variety of stocks were traded but the advances far outnumbered declines. Volumes were good overall. The institutional attitude was mixed with the FIIs being heavy sellers while domestic institutions bought in smaller quantities. The BSE 500 was down 2 per cent while the Midcaps were down 2.7 per cent.
Outlook: The market looks most likely to range-trade between 4,800-5,100 with some chances of a breakout in either direction. The intermediate correction may not be over yet. There is good support in a band between 4,700-4,800 and equally strong resistance between 5,050-5,150.
Rationale: Last week, the Nifty made a top of 5,138, which is a lower peak compared to the last peak of 5,181 (the 2009 high) in late October. The pattern of lower tops would be interpreted as part of an ongoing intermediate correction.
However, this downtrend would be confirmed as still in force, only if the next bottom is lower than 4,538 (the November 3 low). If the support at 4,700-4,800 holds leading to a pattern of higher lows, or the resistance at 5,050-5,150 breaks (meaning higher tops), the intermediate downtrend will have reversed.
Counter-view: Intermediate trends last anywhere between 4-12 weeks and this one has been in force for around 5. So it has the potential in terms of time to continue. The momentum signals are near neutral. Balanced against that, the long-term trend seems positive – the 200 day moving average is still rising. A positive long-term trend generally means shorter corrections. Fibonacci analysis also suggests that 4,538 is unlikely to be broken.
Bulls & Bears : Most major stocks showed patterns similar to the Nifty-Sensex. They are poised near strong supports and face powerful resistance above current levels. Optimists will be looking for trend reversals and bullish moves up from the supports while pessimists will look for shorts.
Sector wise, almost every high-weighted sector saw many losers. IT was hit by fresh revelations about the magnitude of the Satyam scam and the CNXIT lost 3.7 per cent. Banking was hit by fears of exposure to the potential meltdown in Dubai and the Bank Nifty lost 2.9 per cent. Metals and realty stocks slid as well. Engineering and construction scrips were also hard hit. There were isolated winners in pharma and FMCG and continued cautious investments in energy and auto stocks. The power sector could see an earlier turnaround than most others.
MICRO TECHNICALS
ICICI Bank
Current Price: Rs 850.9
Target Price: Rs 830
The stock has reacted sharply on high volumes and it could fall further. The nearest reliable support is around Rs 830 and if that is penetrated, Rs 810-815 may be tested. Keep a stop at Rs 860 and go short. Either cover at Rs 830, or partially cover, intending to clear the position at Rs 815.
Indraprastha Gas
Current Price: Rs 167.6
Target Price: Rs 176
The stock seems to have completed a correction to a strong support. On the next upmove, it should test resistance at around the 2009 high of Rs 176. If it closes above Rs 176, it would have a clear run till around Rs 185. Keep a stop at Rs 165 and go long. Book partial profits at Rs 176, and shift the stop up to Rs 172.
GVK Power
Current Price: Rs 50.55
Target Price: Rs 53
The stock has fallen to a strong support at the current price. If it has completed its correction, it is likely to bounce back till around the Rs 53-54 levels. Keep a stop at Rs 49.5 and go long. Book profits above Rs 53.
Reliance Industries
Currrent Price: Rs 1,046
Target Price: Rs 1,100
A stock split usually leads to greater liquidity. But in RIL, this effect is hardly noticeable because it was always very liquid. Immediately after going ex-bonus, the scrip has been sold down. It could rebound till Rs 1,100. Keep a stop at Rs 1,035 and go long. Book profits above Rs 1,090.
Mahindra Satyam
Current Price: Rs 90.45
Target Price: Rs 80
The stock has crashed on very high volumes on new revelations about the scam. If it closes below Rs 90, it is likely to fall till 80. Keep a stop at Rs 93 and go short. Increase the position below Rs 88 and cover the position below Rs 80.
(The target price and projected movements given above are in terms of the next five trading sessions unless otherwise stated.)

Nifty ends near 4950 IT and capital goods down
Mkts singe in Dubai crisis, end down despite smart recovery
Dubai's debt crisis has put Indian equities as well as global markets on fire since yesterday. The crack across the globe emerged when emirate said two of its flagship firms planned to delay repayment of billions of dollars in debt. The markets feared that this debt default could affect other countries as they are trying to recover from global meltdown.
But the benchmark indices as well as European shares discounted most of the news, due to which Indian equities recovered more than 2/3rd of losses in the last couple of hours, led by buying from insurance companies. The Nifty closed the day above 4,900 level while the Sensex above the 16,600 level.
Dubai's government on Wednesday said it would ask creditors of Dubai World, the conglomerate behind its rapid expansion, and Nakheel, builder of its palm-shaped islands, to agree a standstill on billions of dollars of debt as a first step towards restructuring. Dubai World has USD 59 billion of liabilities, representing a large part of Dubai's total debt of USD 80 billion.
The S&P, rating agency, had placed the ratings of four Dubai-based banks on negative outlook due to their exposure to Dubai World.
The Sensex closed 16,647, down 207 points and the Nifty fell 62 points to 4,943, as per provisional data.

30 Most Powerful Women - Business Today
The power 30
The recession, downturn or whatever you call it, has dented most kinds of lists—lists of billionaires, lists of most valuable companies, lists of top recruiters and so on.
But there is one list that has grown when others shrank—BT’s list of the Most Powerful Women in Indian Business. As we researched for the seventh edition of our list, we were confronted with an embarrassment of riches.
Successful women leaders are dotting the Indian business landscape in far greater numbers than ever. Result: our list is of 30 jewels. Many “regulars” in our list have added more to their power in the past one year. Two large and rapidly-growing private banks are headed by women today, which wasn’t the case last year.
Though banking and finance still dominate the list, woman power is growing exponentially in the business of Bollywood, consumer goods and public relations. Our list captures this too. Check out the new faces and the new achievements of the old ones.
VINITA BALI, 52, MD, Britannia Industries
Once again in the BT Power List. Does it still enthuse you?
What enthuses is the work that “the list” recognises.
Your definition of power—has it changed over the years?
It evolves... as you reflect on new experiences— but fundamentally for me, power is about creating the context and environment where the right things happen.
New lessons learnt in 2009.
The discretion and judgement to know when to push and when to be patient in a volatile and unpredictable market!
New frontiers conquered in 2009.
Global recognition for the work Britannia is doing in the area of kids nutrition, at the “Clinton Global Initiative,” for example.
What next?
More transformative change.

Bonus bonanza drives volumes on RIL
A day before Reliance Industries (RIL) becomes ex-bonus (price being adjusted for 1:1 bonus), investors were seen flocking to the counter and, interestingly, many of them preferred to take delivery of shares than squaring off their positions intra-day.
According to brokers, the liberal bonus offers a good tax-planning opportunity for the shareholders. They can buy a certain number of shares cum-bonus (before being adjusted for bonus) and sell them ex-bonus, thus booking a loss that can be set off against short-term capital gains earned on any other transactions. By doing so, they would be entitled to bonus shares and would also save tax.
The RIL counter attracted delivery-based volume of 39.5% of the 13.2 lakh total traded shares on Wednesday, compared to 28.9% (7 lakh shares) and 22.8% (12.6 lakh shares) on the previous two days. The stock closed 0.8% higher at Rs 2,194 on the day.
FM to announce UTI stake sale after regulatory nod
The formal announcement of the 26% equity stake sale of UTI Mutual Fund to US-based investment firm T Rowe Price is expected to be made by finance minister Pranab Mukherjee next month. “There will be formal announcement on the stake sale after receiving all the regulatory approvals... it will be announced by a senior government official,” said an official familiar with the matter.
The NYSE-listed financial services firm would be paying $135 million for a 26% stake in the Mumbai-based fund house. The valuation works out to be 3.6% of assets managed by UTI AMC as on August 31, 2009.
L&T poised to make a grand exit from Satyam
Investors have been buying shares of engineering behemoth Larsen & Toubro (L&T) in large numbers on talks that the company will benefit immensely from a probable sell-off of Satyam Computer shares over the next few months. According to brokers, L&T had been accumulating shares of Satyam Computers since early-December last year.
L&T raised its stake by over 13% in Satyam Computers between December 2008 and February 2009. L&T, along with L&T Capital, holds a 6.9% stake in Satyam Computers as on September 2009. With L&T investment in Satyam nearing one year, the engineering company is expected to exit the stock.
Analysts are expecting Tech Mahindra (which acquired Satyam in April 2009) to buy the L&T stake in Satyam at a high price. This will further improve the cash position of L&T, say brokers. Shares of L&T ended 0.1% higher at Rs 1,650.45 on the BSE. Satyam Computers closed 11% lower at Rs 90.55 on Wednesday.
