Dear NOVICE,
My objective was only to proivde inspiration. The reason being, there is no single way for LT investment. It depends on person`s demographic, psychographic profile and his pockets.
E.g. You might prefer 70% equity - 40% in stocks, 30% in MF and remaining 30% in Debt.
I might prefer some other ratio and within that a different mix of instruments.
However, your 2nd line has sparked a good motive. So pls feel free to add your comments under this purview as well.
Thanks...
dear hansal,
Is the objective of this thread restricted only to providing inspiration?
Or
Is there any interest in making people understand what LT investment is?
regards...
KUALA LUMPUR: The slump in the country`s real estate industry notwithstanding, as many as nine Indian realtors have made their way into the Forbes
40 richest people list.
The league of the realtors is led by DLF Chairman Kushal Pal Singh, who is ranked overall fifth with a fortune of $ 7.8 billion.
Of the nine people, whose combined net worth is USD 22.33 billion, five have fortunes of more than one billion dollars.
The list of 40 richest people is led by Reliance Industries Chairman Mukesh Ambani with a net worth of USD 20.8 billion, followed by ArcelorMittal chief Lakshmi Mittal (USD 20.5 billion) and Anil Ambani (USD 12. 5 billion).
Meanwhile, in the list, apart from Singh, Adi Godrej and Gautam Adani are ranked at ninth and tenth, respectively.
Adi Godrej of Godrej Industries has a net worth of USD four billion while Adani Enterprises` Gautam Adani`s fortunes are valued at USD 3.9 billion.
Other realtors who have made it to the list are Chandru Raheja of K Raheja Corp (20th rank), GMR Group`s GM Rao (21), Unitech`s Ramesh Chandra (27), Rajan Raheja of Raheja Properties (30), Niranjan Hiranandani (35) and Hemant Shah (37).
However, Singh witnessed a steep decline in his net worth in one year, losing as much as USD 27 billion.
"The real estate baron and DLF chairman lost 27.2 billion dollars in the past year. Attempt to boost share price through share buyback was unsuccessful as were its plans to list its real estate investment trust in Singapore...," the magazine said.

With the stock market bouncing back over the past six months, majority of the ongoing share buybacks announced by listed companies in the Tips to pick potential stocks

Risk while investing in midcaps
recent past are unlikely to find any takers as the market price of those companies are much higher than the maximum repurchase price offered under the schemes.
Share buybacks are announced by companies to use their surplus cash to reduce the floating stock, which results into increasing the promoters’ holding.
Following the global financial meltdown last year, which inturn brought down share prices, many Indian companies embarked upon buybacks to bolster their promoter holding.
In addition, those announcements were also aimed at soaring the share prices. In many of the buybacks, that closed down due to expiry of prescribed time, companies did not exhaust the allocated fund that was earmarked despite lower market price, clearly indicating that they were actually not interested in buyback.
India Inc announced 62 buybacks in the past 22 months since the stock market correction started in January 2008, entailing a total outlay of Rs 5,919.52 crore, of which 40 have already been closed, as per data collated by Delhi-based merchant bank SMC Capitals.
While the announced value in case of these 40 buyback offers was pegged at Rs 4,817.59 crore, these companies actually spent Rs 2,404.14 crore on the buyback programmes.
In terms of the remaining 22 buybacks that are still ongoing, companies have so far bought-back only Rs 171.17 crore, 15.53 per cent of the announced value of Rs 1,101.92 crore.
Jagannadham Thunuguntla, equity head, SMC Capital said, “For the ongoing buyback programmes, it is the rising stock prices which are resulting in smaller number of shares being tendered. Shareholders should not get carried away when a buyback is announced. Companies, too, should maintain logic and not make announcements on adhoc basis.”
Prominent companies that have bought back 100 per cent of their announced buyback programme include Eicher Motors, Gateway Distriparks, Godrej Consumer Products and Patni Computers.
Those, which exhausted the buyback time and completed lower amounts are DLF (actually completed only 13%), Reliance Infrastructure (18%) and Godrej Industries (29%), among others.
Issues which have not been able to muster substantial number of shares include Gitanjali Gems (5%), India Infoline (11%) and Provogue (12%), besides Apollo Tyres and Indiabulls Securities, which haven’t even started the process...
