That happens because booking of profits is required and it is best strategy. Otherwise whatever earned gets eroded in front of us. But since market had became technically weak, global weakness and inflation sword, market will not halt from going downwards and 4165 is sure for nifty. It is better that you have earned profits. If you booked profits then only you can enjoy otherwise it is useless to see just profit on the screen. Weak stocks going forward are Bharti, Reliance Comm, Idea, Reliance Energy, Tata Power, NTPC, Suzlon, Power Grid, BHEL (likely). But that does not mean they will fall heavily but they will provide opportunity on the lower side....

Hardening of interest rates has given many corporates a chance to improve the performance and prune the liability of retirement funds for their employees. For the first time companies have got a window to pull out and reinvest money which is locked with the government and is earning a sub-market return.

A good part, often as high as 30%, of the superannuation and gratuity funds of corporates is parked as ‘special deposits’ with the government which gives an annual interest of only 8% on the money. Under the arrangement, companies collect the interest amount every January, but cannot withdraw the principal amount for redeploying it in securities which carry a higher return.

The only way the deposit can be withdrawn and reinvested is when the company gives the mandate to an insurance firm to manage the funds. Two recent developments can change the way companies handle these retirement funds. First, insurance firms are promising a guaranteed return for managing the special deposit portion in the funds; second, higher yields in government securities and corporate bonds following successive rate hikes have made it possible for insurance companies to generate higher returns. For instance, returns offered by insurance companies (which have approached several corporates) vary between 9.35% and 9.55% against 8% offered by the government on special deposits.
Significantly, a higher return will also enable corporates to lower their liability. A superannuation fund is created, with the employer contributing a maximum 15% of employees’ basic salary and crediting the interest from investments.
At the time of retirement, employees get one-third of the money, while the balance is used to purchase an annuity for a life-time pension. Gratuity, which unlike superannuation, is payable under law. Here, an employee receives 15 days salary for one completed year of service.

So, for 30 years of service an employee will receive 15 months’ salary based on the last pay drawn. To meet this payout, an employer does an actuarial valuation to calculate the liability. Under this circumstance, if such funds invest more in high-yielding bonds, the employer’s liability will come down.

It may be mentioned that even though a part of the provident fund money is locked in special deposits, current regulations do not allow insurance companies to manage PFs. Thus, under the current circumstances, unlocking of SDs can happen only in superannuation and gratuity funds.

While the special deposit scheme was introduced years ago for a limited period, the maturity date for deposits has been pushed back by the government. While the interest received can be reinvested in a given investment pattern, the government has shown no interest in releasing the corpus.

Practice makes a man perfect… - But nobody’s perfect…… so why
practice?

Money is not everything. - There’s MasterCard & Visa.

One should love animals. - They are so tasty.

Save water. - Shower with your girl friend.

Love thy neighbour. - But don’t get caught.

Behind every successful man, there is a woman - And behind every
unsuccessful man, there are two.

Every man should marry. - After all, happiness is not the only thing in
life.

The wise never marry - And when they marry they become otherwise.

Success is a relative term. - It brings so many relatives.

Never put off the work till tomorrow what you can put off today.

Love is photogenic - It needs darkness to develop

Children in backseats cause accidents - Accidents in backseats cause
children

“Your future depends on your dreams” - So go to sleep

There should be a better way to start a day - Than waking up every
morning

“Hard work never killed anybody” - But why take the risk !

“Work fascinates me” - I can look at it for hours!

God made relatives; - Thank God we can choose our friends.

When two’s company, - three’s the result!

The more you learn, the more you know,
The more you know, the more you forget
The more you forget, the less you know - So… Why learn.

A bus station is where a bus stops.
A train station is where train stops.
On my desk, I have a work station…. what more can I say……..

You can please call me PQ-pitquote or what so ever. But please do not add SIR. I am rather shy. Thanks and keep FIT AS FIDDLE. Cheers. Best fat burner in this world is GINGER and US is trying to patent it. Unfortunately we sideline Pepper Ginger from the VenPongal our parents serve. I hope Indian govenment looks into this in addition to the nuclear deal. First they tried turmeric/then they started working with Neem and now it is the turn of Ginger.

yes radhika. Playing on profits is most comfortable rather on capital. It is better to risking on that. But exiting from those contract is also important. As you have bought contracts for which better value is expected before expiry as market is now vulnerable to any event. Bulls are just holding though they are uncomfortable. As soon as inflation touches 12.75% today, today there can be only dumping of frontline stocks like Reliance, Banking, Reality and Auto stocks which can lead on the forefront.
