Google phone finally in India

Taiwanese cellphone maker HTC is all set to launch G2, or the second generation premier Google phone that runs on Google's Android operating system, in India soon. It is likely to be priced between Rs 26,000 to 28,000.

The company is planning to sell the unlocked G2 Android phone through a large telecom service provider, most likely Airtel, according to sources.

However, it has no immediate plans to retail the same through Vodafone with which it has a tie-up to sell G1 and G2 in most other regions, including the entire Europe.

The phone is likely to be bundled by the telco with talk time, data plans, microSD card for storage and other offers which will make it a compelling buy for the consumer. But it being unlocked means that users on other networks too will be able to lay their hands upon the handset.

Android is based on the open source platform for mobile devices. Using these smart phones, a user can download a wide number of utilities and productivity applications from Android App Store, both priced and for free. For those who swear by Google's apps, the phone is a good buy.

HTC partnered with T-Mobile and Google in the US to launch T-Mobile G1 in September 2008, followed by G2 recently. G1 never made it to the Indian market although T-Mobile claimed to have sold over a million pieces in the US. The phone, however, has been available in the grey market for around Rs 18-19,000.

The phone is being launched in India by HTC at a time when there are already a number of other smart touchphones vying for attention, including Blackberry Bold and Nokia N97 and its own Touch Diamond 2.

Branded as myTouch by T-Mobile in the US, G2 has the same hardware design as the Google Ion, which is also known as the HTC Magic. The device was introduced at the GSMA Mobile World Congress in Barcelona in February and is now being sold by Vodafone in various markets around the world.

It is thinner than the G1 and slightly smaller than Apple's iPhone. But it features a large 3.2-inch tactile touch screen with a resolution of 320 x480 pixels and no physical keyboard. The phone offers network support for 3G and Wi-Fi.

It also comes with 512 MB internal memory and has a microSD slot for external storage.

Govt. likely to hike petrol price by Rs 2 a liter; diesel by Re 1

Government is likely to hike petrol prices by Rs 2 a liter and diesel by Re one a liter unless excise duty on the two fuels are cut to neutralize the impact of firming international oil rates.

State fuel retailers Indian Oil (IOC), Hindustan Petroleum (HPCL) and Bharat Petroleum (BPCL) currently lose Rs 1.35 billion a day on sale of petrol, diesel, LPG and kerosene and their annual revenue loss for current fiscal is estimated to be at Rs 387 billion.

The basket of crude oil India imports has averaged USD 70.49 per barrel in the second fortnight of June against the May average of USD 58, sending alarm bells ringing, a Petroleum Ministry official said.

``We have to act to save our PSU``, he said. ``The burden of rising global oil prices has to be shared equally between the companies, the government and consumers``.

PSUs lose Rs 2.96 a liter on diesel and Rs 6.08 per liter on petrol. ``One-third of this or Rs 2 a liter on petrol and Re 1 on diesel can be passed on to consumers`` he said.

The rest of the losses would be covered by issue of government bonds to the retailers and subsidy sharing by upstream firms like ONGC.

``If the Finance Minister Pranab Mukherjee cuts excise duty on the two fuels, consumers can be spared from price hike``, he said.

Petrol attracts an excise duty of Rs 11.35 a liter and diesel Rs 1.60 a liter. Besides Rs 2 a liter road cess is levied on the two fuels.

The official said the proposal to hike petrol and diesel rates would have to go to the Cabinet for approval.

Petroleum Minister Murli Deora refused to answer questions on price hike, but the issue of deregulation of petrol and diesel prices was still under consideration of the government.

The government has been mulling decontrolling petrol and diesel prices for couple of months now but may be fast losing the window as the move would now result in steep rise in fuel prices.

Mahindra Holidays IPO looks expensive

Mahindra Holidays & Resorts India (MHRIL), one of the leading leisure hospitality providers in India offering quality family holidays and a part of Mahindra Group is entering capital markets tomorrow with an initial public offering of around 9.2 million equity shares of Rs. 10 each for cash at a price to be decided through a 100% book-building process.

MHRIL has fixed a price-band for the issue at Rs 275-325 a share. It plans to raise around Rs 2.54 billion to Rs 3.01 billion through the issue. The issue has been assigned 4 out of 5 IPO grading by Fitch Ratings India (P) reflecting above average fundamentals` of the Issue relative to other listed equity securities.

Business model
MHRIL business is significantly dependent on the continued establishment and promotion of its brands through service offerings, such as Club Mahindra Holidays, Fundays, Zest and Mahindra Homestays. As of May 31, 2009, it has 19 branches and 61 retail outlets across India of which 45 are owned and 16 are franchised. The cumulative member base increased to 92,825 in fiscal 2009 from 38,691 in fiscal 2006. Its membership enrolments have increased at a CAGR of 33.87% over the last three fiscal years. As of May 31, 2009, MHRIL has 96,067 members and 27 resorts across India and Thailand.

Expansion plans
MHRIL plans to deploy issue proceeds in setting up of new projects and expansion of some of the existing resorts. It will provide a larger range of resorts and hence a wider choice of holiday destinations to members, it said.

Financial Performance
During the financial year ended 2008-09, MHRIL reported a decline of 5.05% in the net profit to Rs 798 million over the previous financial year. Meanwhile, total income increased 17.21% to Rs 4,421.20 million helped by income from securization and interest. This coupled with rise in subscription fees and income from sale of services at the resorts.

MHRIL results of operations are affected by factors such as changes in global and domestic economies, changes in local market conditions, the cost and availability of financing and other similar factors. The current downturn in global economies has led to lack of consumer confidence, decreased market valuations and liquidity, increased market volatility and a widespread reduction of business activity generally. The resulting economic pressure and lack of confidence in the financial markets adversely affected the company`s business, financial condition and results of operations during the third quarter of fiscal 2009.

Valuation
At the cap price, the issue of MHRIL is priced at around 32 times of its FY09 earnings. The issue is priced at around 27 times of its FY09 earnings at floor price. This looks expensive when compared with Country Clubs which also engaged in the same business is trading at nearly 10 times of earnings. The IPO is at 15.3-18 times of earnings of FY10 forward estimates, which looks high, notes the brokerage firm Bonanza Portfolio. Considering this, it might possible that the stock may trade below the issue price on the listing.

However, MHRIL is the biggest player in the industry, commanding near 40% of the market that is growing at 15%. The company has shown faster growth than industry in recent years. The business is niche, with strong brand awareness and earning visibility. Investors looking for new business models with a long term view may apply.

Mahindra Holidays and Resorts - long-term play, IPO note, Subscribe

Mahindra Holidays and Resorts (INR 275-325, Subscribe)

Unique business model

Mahindra Holidays and Resorts India (MHRL) is one of the leading leisure hospitality providers in India , offering family holidays with a range of services designed to meet the diverse holiday needs of a family. In addition to providing Vacation Ownership (VO) memberships, it also manages the operations at its resorts, which helps it control the quality of its offering thereby enhancing customer experience.

Apart from its flagship service offering of VO, as part of its growth strategy it diversified its portfolio by introducing new vacation ownership offerings, Zest and Club Mahindra Fundays, Mahindra Homestays and travel and holiday related services through clubmahindra.travel.

As of May 31, 2009, MHRL had 96,067 Club Mahindra Holiday vacation ownership members.

Likely increase in income levels to augur well for MHRL

Over the next two decades, the Indian market is likely to undergo a major transformation. Income levels will almost triple and India is poised to become the fifth largest consumer market by 2025. As Indian incomes rise, the shape of the country’s income pyramid will also change dramatically. Over 291 mn people will move from desperate poverty to a more sustainable life, and India ’s middle class will swell by over ten times from its current size of 50 mn to 583 mn people.

Revenues extremely sensitive to incremental member additions

The fact that 60% of upfront onetime membership fess is booked upfront (currently accounting for 75% of revenues), topline for MHRL is extremely sensitive to incremental membership additions. Hence, unless the incremental number of new member addition is higher than the previous year, the topline for the company may not grow.

Strong parentage

MHRL is a part of the Mahindra Group of companies that is amongst the top 10 industrial houses in India . Forbes has ranked the Mahindra Group in its Top 200 list of the World’s Most Reputable Companies and in the Top 10 list of Most Reputable Indian companies. The Mahindra Group’s activities have spread over various areas such as automotive, farm equipments, engineering, forging, steel, infrastructure development, leisure hospitality, information technology, systems and technology, consultancy and software services, general retailing, and trade and financial services.

Outlook and valuations

Although the IPO is stiffly priced, we recommend ‘SUBSCRIBE’ from a long-term perspective at the lower end of the price band, betting on the strong parentage, management track record, early-mover advantage and the company’s dominant position in the vacation ownership business suggesting growth potential over the long term. At the upper band of INR 325, MHRL is valued at 34.2x its FY09 earnings and at the lower price band of INR 275, it is valued at 29x its FY09 earnings (on a fully diluted basis).

Mitesh Thacker's views on IDBI, Bank of India, IndusInd Bank, Satyam, Rel Power, RNRL, Reliance for June 17, 2009

Reliance has support at Rs 2120: M Thacker
Mitesh Thacker, Technical Analyst, miteshthacker.com is of the view that Reliance Industries has support at Rs 2120.

Thacker told CNBC-TV18, "For Reliance two important things are that after the election results on Monday 18th May, the closing for Reliance was around Rs 2,360 and on Friday it closed at Rs 2,357, so Rs 2,350 now becomes a very important supply area and you have seen two tops formed at the same level. So Rs 2,120 would be a good support area, a wise move on Reliance would be to take some kind of short exposure to the upside if we are trading near 2,300 levels."

Sudarshan Sukhani's views on IDBI, Reliance Capital and Cement Sector for June 17, 2009

Cement likely to slide down slowly: Sukhani
Technical Analyst, Sudarshan Sukhani feels that cement is going to slide down slowly.

Sukhani told CNBC-TV18, "Lot of these sectors are now bracing themselves for either for consolidations or corrections which is what I feel about the Nifty also. ACC has been moving in Rs 800-850 range for almost 10 days now, so either a renewed burst of strength will come which will take it beyond Rs 900-850 or we will see it slide down. I think cement is going to slide down slowly. This is not a deep correction as of now."

Disclosure: It is safe to assume that analyst and his clients may have an investment interest in the above stock/sector.


Avoid Reliance Capital: Sukhani
Technical Analyst, Sudarshan Sukhani is of the view that one can ignore Reliance Capital at this level.

Sukhani told CNBC-TV18, "Reliance Capital goes up Rs 100-150 then it comes down by the same amount, so I think the volatility is a warning that there is something difficult to understand."

He further added, "Reliance Infra is a far better, it is the only stock in that ADAG stable. That suggests that there is short term momentum again building up. I would ignore Reliance Capital now."

Disclosure: It is safe to assume that analyst and his clients may have an investment interest in the above stock/sector.



IDBI Bank a better trading, investment opportunity: Sukhani
Technical Analyst, Sudarshan Sukhani is of the view that IDBI Bank is a far better swing trading and investment opportunity.

Sukhani told CNBC-TV18, "IndusInd Bank has done the right things. I am worried about the banks stock price because it is very volatile. It has jumped 3 or 4 times so to that extent IDBI Bank has done the same chart patterns: consolidated and broken out, so it is a far better swing trading and investment opportunity. I really do not favour anybody buying IFCI."

He further added, "Axis Bank has also done the right things, consolidated, given a breakout and since the banking and the financing sector is outperforming there are short term opportunities there also."

Disclosure: It is safe to assume that analyst and his clients may have an investment interest in the above stock/sector.

First look: Apple iPhone 3G S

Indiatimes Infotech

The third-generation iPhone is here! As widely being speculated in the media over the last few days, Apple lifted the curtains over its new version of iPhone, called iPhone 3G S.

iPhone 3G S claims to be much faster than its previous versions and packs some 100 new features. Apple's vice president, marketing, Phil Schiller made the announcements at the company's annual Worldwide Developers Conference in San Francisco (And yes, contrary to wide speculations, Apple's renowned chief executive, Steve Jobs, did not appear).

Phone 3G S goes on sale from June 19 in the US. The phone reportedly will see its India launch in August 2009. With the new device Apple aims to take on the newly-launched iPhone rivals galore.

So, here's looking into the all-new iPhone 3G S.

• Speed

Wondering what the S in Apple iPhone 3G S stands for? It's the faster speed, double that of the original model claims Apple. The new iPhone 3G S can perform tasks up to 3.6 times faster than the previous second-generation model. Apple claims that it is the 'most powerful iPhone ever made.'

According to Apple, Web pages will render in a fraction of the time and users can view email attachments faster in iPhone 3G S. Also, the new device's updated 3D graphics promise enhanced gaming experience.

Apple says everything you do on iPhone 3G S is up to 2x faster and more responsive than ever.


• Camera

With iPhone 3G S, Apple has finally fulfilled a long time wish of its fans by increasing the megapixel count of its iconic device. The new phone now packs an improved 3 megapixel camera with video capturing, auto-focus mechanism and editing capabilities.

Last year, iPhone was widely criticised for retaining the same 2 megapixel in its 3G model. The phone's camera has a built-in autofocus and a handy new feature that lets users just tap on the display to focus on an object.


• Video recording

Yes iPhone 3G S now has a video recording, a sorely missed out feature in its earlier two models. Users can shoot high-quality VGA video in portrait or landscape mode. They can also edit videos and share them.

Speculations were high that Apple will unveil a higher-resolution camera and a possible support for digital video recording.


• Voice dial and memos

The voice control feature in the iPhone 3G S allows users to dial by saying the name or number. It also enables playing of music by artist, album or playlist and to pause the music, play the next track and turn on shuffle.

The iPhone can be told to "Play more songs like this" or can be told to say the song being played. There's also a new Voice Memos application that lets users do audio recording.


• Built-in digital compass

The new version also packs a built-in digital compass that will help users locate their way. The new Compass app will automatically reorient maps to match the direction. While unveiling the new operating system software, iPhone OS 3.0, Apple said that the iPhone will become a full-fledged GPS device with iPhone 3.0.

The new upgrade will enable users to receive turn-by-turn instructions for driving similar to those in use on GPS navigation devices.


• Cut, copy & paste

Another sore miss out feature makes its entry in the new model. Yes, cut-copy-paste is there now. The new iPhone 3.0 software adds this one of the most sorely missed feature in the existing iPhone 2.0.

Apple said the third generation of iPhone software will let users copy information from notes and Web pages, and let people move text between different applications. Users will be able to cut, copy and paste words and photos, even between applications.


• Multimedia messaging (MMS)

MMS capability, another feature high on the wishlist, is finally here. Apple iPhone 3.0 will offer multimedia messaging capability with the new 3.0 software allowing users to send each other photographs from the phone. Earlier, users could send text messages or snapshots via email only.


• Landscape keyboard

Want more room to type on the software keyboard? Here comes the landscape keyboard in the new model. The new device lets users rotate the phone to landscape to use a larger keyboard in Mail, Messages, Notes and Safari.


• "Find My iPhone"

Another interesting feature that debuts is "Find My iPhone." The feature is designed to help users in case they misplace their device. Senior vice president, iPhone software, Scott Forstall, said that with "Find My iPhone" feature users can use Apple's online Mobile Me service to locate lost or stolen devices.

"It will show you on a map where your phone is," he said. "You can send it a message and it plays an alert sound whether or not you left it in silent mode." The feature also lets people remotely erase all data from lost or stolen iPhones, then reload the information using iTunes if they are reacquainted with their devices.


• Spotlight

Search features have also been enhanced in iPhone 3.0 with the addition of Spotlight. This will enable users to search not only their contacts, but also calendar entries, notes, email and even apps on the device.


• Internet tethering

Another most sought after feature in the iPhone makes its entry. The new model will let users surf the web from practically anywhere. This feature will let users share their 3G connection on iPhone with their laptop.

Users who are away from their Wi-Fi network will be able to use the iPhone's broadband connections to connect their laptop to the Internet. This feature will work via USB or Bluetooth.


• Battery life

iPhone's new model also boasts of improved battery life. Apple claims the new model will support up to 12 hours of talk time, 30 hours of audio, 9 hours of Wi-Fi, 10 hours on video playback, and 5 hours 3G talk time.

The current 3G iPhone promises 5 hours of 3G talk time, 10 hours of 2G talk time, 5 hours of 3G Internet time, 6 hours of WiFi Internet time, 7 hours of video playback, 24 hours of audio playback, and 12.5 days standby time.


• Memory capacity and pricing

As expected Apple has unveiled a higher 32GB version of the iPhone 3G S. The new model will come in choices of 16GB and 32GBmemory capacity. The iPhone 3G (second generation) comes in 8 and 16GB model versions.

As for the pricing, the 16GB iPhone 3GS will cost $199, and the 32GB model will come with a price tag of $299. The price of the original 8GB iPhone 3G dropped to $99 from $199. For the new iPhone 3.0 OS users having the previous generation software will have to pay $29 to upgrade.

9-Nine disappointments in iPhone 3G S

Indiatimes Infotech

New iPhone is here, iPhone 3G S. iPhone 3G S offers as many as 100 new features and more than double the speed of the earliest version. Plus, it comes with a price cut. Seems like users have got all they wanted and wished for in the new gadget. Not really!

iPhone 3G S though offers a lot, still leaves a lot wanting. The revamped iPhone disappoints users on many counts, some which were on top of their wishlist for the new iPhone.

Here are the 9 things that disappoint many users in iPhone 3G S.

• No change in looks

Apple products are known for their design. Apple iPhone too scores high on looks. But a change is always refreshing. So, a change in looks was high on users' wishlist. However, the new iPhone 3G S disappoints with almost nothing new in terms of appearance.

The phone looks exactly same like its predecessors with same dimensions and screen display. iPhone 3G S, in both 16GB or 32GB variants, will be available in black and white colour options.


• Camera

Apple finally upgraded iPhone's camera megapixel. iPhone 3G S offers 3 megapixel camera over 2 megapixel in the previous version. However, 3 megapixel looks pale in front of the higher megapixel camera smartphones that are flooding the market.

Recently, world's top cellphone maker Nokia unveiled its second touchscreen phone with 5 megapixel camera (with Carl Zeiss optics and dual LED flash). Other iPhone rivals including Samsung, LG and Sony Ericsson boast of a portfolio of higher megapixel camera phones.


• No Flash

iPhone 3G S also disappoints fans looking forward to Flash support in the new version. The latest iPhone too offers no Flash support. In case users wish to see those multimedia files that require Flash, they will have to do away with them.

Presently, when users browse through Web pages with Adobe Flash, it displays empty spaces with missing icons. Earlier, Apple said that Flash would run too slowly on the iPhone.


• USB port

Another big miss in the new iPhone is the absence of a standard USB port. iPhone 3G S comes with a proprietary USB connector rather than a microUSB. This means users have to shell out extra money to buy separate cables to use phone's USB features.


• User-replaceable battery

Like the all earlier versions iPhone 3G S too does not come with user-replaceable battery. Apple has increased the battery life but it does not still allow users to replace battery when it runs out of juice.

Apple had earlier reportedly said that it left out the user-replaceable battery because it adds bulk and weight, but users can't help comparing it with other smartphones.


• No front-facing camera

Though Apple has fulfilled a long time wish by enabling the device to record videos, however, iPhone 3G S still lacks front-facing camera for video conferencing. This means the device is not capable of sending videos across a Wi-Fi or cellular network in real time.


• No high-resolution screen

Another disappointment is no upgrade in screen resolution. Apple has made no enhancement in the iPhone 3G S screen resolution, which is same as its 2007 and 2008 predecessors. It has 480 x 320 pixel resolution at 163 ppi, same as the iPhone 3G's. Recently-launched Nokia N97 boast of a wide touchscreen that has a 16:9 aspect ratio and a resolution of 640 x 360 pixels.


• No HD support

As speculated, iPhone 3G S does not support HD (high-definition) content. iPhone 3G S supports 640 x 480 videos as its predecessors and is not capable of playing higher-resolution videos. The phone supports video formats: H.264 video, up to 1.5 Mbps, 640 x 480 pixels, 30 frames per second.

HD video refers to any video system of higher resolution than standard-definition (SD) video, and most commonly involves display resolutions of 1280 720 pixels (720p) or 1920 1080 pixels (1080i/1080p).


• iPhone FM transmitter

Another big rumour doing rounds was an iPhone FM transmitter chip. However, it remained a rumour only. iPhone's new model does not offer support for FM Transmitter. Some reports claim that the chip would have enabled faster wireless connection and FM transmission.

Weekly Market Forecast Report 8-6-09 to 12-6-09

This week market will continue its up trend

Sensex rose 478 points or 3.27% to 15103 and Nifty rose 138 points or 3.10% to 4586 in the week ended 5-6-2009. Since last thirteen week market is running on bull side. On Friday of the last week nifty crossed 4620 but could not sustain on new high and we saw some profit booking at higher level and closed below 4620.

The BSE Sensex has advanced 5456.24 points or 56.55% in calendar year 2009. From a 3-year closing low of 8,160.40 on 9 March 2009, the Sensex is up 6943.15 points or 85.08%.

Market may even see a pre-budget rally on hopes of accelerated economic reforms and pro-reforms announcements. Finance Minister Pranab Mukherjee will present the Union Budget on 3 July 2009 while Railway Minister Mamata Banerjee will present the Rail Budget on 1 July 2009. The Economic Survey will be held on 2 July 2009.

The Government has made its intention clear to push for reforms and pursue the disinvestment agenda, which was met with stiff opposition in the UPA's previous stint when the Left parties were members for a major part of the five-year tenure. The Congress party had in its manifesto released before polls promised to go ahead with disinvestment while retaining a majority holding in the state-run companies. Disinvestment programme was earlier put on backburner due to stiff opposition from the Left front.

Foreign institutional investors (FII) were the key drivers of the recent solid surge. After being heavy net sellers of Rs 4250.30 crore in January 2009 and to the tune of Rs 2707 crore in February 2009, foreign fund selling eased in March 2009, when they tuned net sellers of only Rs 1.1 crore. Their buying gathered steam in April 2009 when they pumped Rs 7384.50 crore. They continue their buying spree in May 2009 pouring Rs 20,606.80 in equities. Their inflow in calendar year 2009 stood at Rs 21,818.80 crore till 3 June 2009. Meanwhile, mutual funds, which are sitting on a large cash pile, are also likely to buy on dips.

Use Stop loss strictly in your every trade, because market is heavily volatile with narrow trading range.

NIFTY FUT. (4592)
Now this week technically nifty’s support is 4408. Buy nifty only above 4620 for target of 4656-4746-4860 and sell nifty if close below 4498 for target of 4419-4349-4280

BHARTIAIRTEL(826.75)

BOMBAYDYING(397)
Sell this stock below 390 for target of 371-354. Keep stop loss of 401.

HDIL(304.30)
Sell this only below 300 for target of 286-276. Keep tight stop loss of 306.

HEROHONDA(1453.95)

Stock Views on Larsen, Tata Steel, Suzlon Energy, Yes Bank, Sesa Goa for June 05, 2009

Stay away from Sesa Goa: Sukhani
Technical Analyst, Sudarshan Sukhani is of the view that one can stay away from Sesa Goa.

Sukhani told CNBC-TV18, "Sesa Goa suggests that there is significant overhead resistance in that stock, so I think it has done its bit. It has rallied a lot. It is wiser to stay away from that one.”

Disclosure: Analyst has delta neutral positions in Nifty and investments in shares.



Buy Yes Bank on dips: Sukhani
Technical Analyst, Sudarshan Sukhani is of the view that momentum traders can buy Yes Bank on dips.

Sukhani told CNBC-TV18, "Dena Bank is not giving a good chart pattern. Yes Bank remains a momentum stock and there is money to made every time it begins an upmove. IDBI has a much better chart for the investors. For investors IDBI and for momentum traders buy Yes Bank on dips.”

Disclosure: Analyst has delta neutral positions in Nifty and investments in shares.



Exit Suzlon Energy, says Irani
Mehraboon Irani, VP-PMS, Centrum Broking is of the view that one can exit Suzlon Energy at this level.

Irani told CNBC-TV18, "I would term Suzlon as a clear cut momentum stock right now in the market so if the market continues to move up possibly the stock could rally a little bit more. If you go back to the past and find out as to where Suzlon first suffered was, they suffered under the plate’s problem. The plates cracked the company lost a lot of orders. Point No. 2 was the funding problem. The liquidity was a major constrain for the company which already right over leveraged. Now the fact is funding problem is something which the company has taken care of is a positive. Secondly the plates which were replaced with the B3 plates that have been no problem for the last one year since the time it has been installed, so one can look at it from a positive angle.”

He further added, “The company is planning to raise around Rs 600 crore from private equity investors acquiring stake in REpower. The company which has an 83% stake in REpower will end up having a stake of around 91%. Once they acquire this stake they will be in a position to transfer the wind energy technology to emerging markets like China and India which ultimately should end up benefiting REpower which is subsidiary of Suzlon. Because Europe and US are doing badly so it is good for REpower and good for Suzlon shareholders ultimately over the longer term.”

“The stock price has gone up by 48% in the last one week, gone up by over 100% over the last one month and even at the present price of around Rs 140 I find Suzlon honestly depending at EPS of around 7.5 for 2009, I think it will be finding it difficult to attain. Even if it attains an earnings of around 7.5 or 7.3 or 7.7 for 2009-10 it is already going at a valuation of around 19.5 to 20 times. In this market which has gone up so sharply which is momentum driven and it is a very-very high beta stock I think Suzlon has a valuation which I can not defend. So I would definitely advice the investor if he/she is not ready to bother too much about a 5-7%-10% rise in the present level and if the market continues to go up I would advice to sell off and exit from the counter.”

Hold Tata Steel, says Kapadia
Hemen Kapadia, chartpundit.com is of the view that one can hold Tata Steel.

Kapadia told CNBC-TV18, "Tata Steel is one of the fastest moving stocks, its in an intermediate uptrend, we are slightly overbought and there isn’t any negative divergence, so no sell signals coming in despite the run up. So I would suggest a hold, if you were to keep a stoploss, that’s going to be pretty far away because we have seen a virtual one way rise from Rs 380 onwards, so if you want to keep a stoploss it would be probably be at Rs 446 but otherwise it’s a hold despite the run up.”

Hold Larsen, says Irani
Mehraboon Irani, VP-PMS, Centrum Broking is of the view that one can hold Larsen and Toubro.

Irani told CNBC-TV18, "The way L&T has moved after being a relative underperformer to the overall market; I think the stock has suddenly come to life in the last maybe 3 weeks. At the present level valuations wise many will argue that the stock has become fully valued going around 30 times but having said that one needs to understand that I think the whole market has gone up a little bit too sharply. I think companies in engineering, construction and capital goods have started enjoying the discounting from 14-15-16 times irrespective of how small they are in terms of size. So I think L&T has been a company looking at the management quality, looking at the visibility of orders and this is the parameters, which I rank very highly. Companies in this particular sector we need to look at the visibility of orders and visibility of orders as far as L&T goes is for the 3-4 years.”

He further added, “I do not think one should be in a hurry to sell this stock. I would strictly advice to hold on to the stock because one can participate in the market. If the market continues to go up L&T will go on giving higher returns and it is a stock to be hold on to.”
