Jio Financial Services share price
Dr. V K Vijayakumar, Chief Investment Strategist at Geojit Financial Services:
The market discovered price of Rs 261.85 per share of Jio Financial Services has come much higher than most brokerages’ estimates. This high price is a reflection of the market’s assessment of Jio Financials’ potential. The wide reach of JFSL through RIL’s other business segments like Reliance Retail has the potential to grow the company at a fast pace for many years to come. The market is discounting this potential.

Ashok Leyland Q1FY24 - Preview by Shreyansh Shah, Research Analyst, Stoxbox
We expect Ashok Leyland to post a tepid sequential growth this quarter on the back of the implementation of BS- VI phase 2 norms and the high base effect of last quarter. In the quarter gone by, the bus segment continued to outpace the M&HCV segment as seen in the preceding quarter as well. On the margin front, we expect higher realization benefits on account of lower discounts and price hikes along with softening raw material prices leading to an annual EBITDA growth in low double-digits in Q1FY24.

The operating performance is also expected to be impacted significantly due to lower realizations and the absorption of high-cost coking coal inventory. We would closely watch management commentary for any signs of moderation in its full-year guidance, demand outlook, the progress on the capital expenditure front, and some colour on plans to reduce debt going forward.

Bank Nifty prediction today – Jul 20, 2023: Buy Bank Nifty futures above 45,780
Bank Nifty index began the day slightly higher at 45,689 versus Wednesday’s close of 45,669. It is currently trading around 45,730. The gain is largely due to the rally in public sector banks, which apparently is the best performing sectoral index so far today.
The advance/decline ratio of Bank Nifty stands at 7/5, showing a bullish bias. IndusInd bank, up by 0.9 per cent, is the top gainer whereas Bandhan Bank, down by 0.9 per cent, is the top loser.
As mentioned earlier, among the banking stocks, the public sector banks are the leaders. Consequently, Nifty PSU Bank, up by 1.3 per cent, has outperformed Nifty Private Bank, which is flat so far today.

Morning market quote from V K Vijayakumar, Chief Investment Strategist at Geojit Financial Services
Even when the market is scaling new highs and the undercurrent is positive, there are strong views that the current high valuations cannot be sustained for long. It is important to understand that the DIIs are not bullish about the market at the current elevated valuations. They were sellers in 12 out of the last 13 trading sessions and have cumulatively sold for ₹16,321 crores and may sell more at higher levels.
In January and February, when the FIIs were selling DIIs were consistent buyers. The 3000 point rally in Nifty from the March lows has given DIIs huge profits and, therefore, profit booking would be a rational response. Selling and profit booking at high levels are easy decisions while buying at high prices can be risky.

Fertiliser sales increase 2.5 per cent in first quarter of current fiscal to 102.12 lakh tonnes
Fertiliser sales have increased 2.5 per cent in first quarter of current fiscal to 102.12 lakh tonnes (lt) from year-ago level as there was a significant increase in demand in June, despite delayed and deficient monsoon. As a result, the subsidy in the April-June period has covered 26 per cent of the Budget Estimate of ₹1.75 lakh crore for 2023-24 fiscal.
Higher sales may also help fertiliser companies increase their earnings, as it has negated any possible adverse impact on consumption after launch of single ‘Bharat’ brand for all subsidised crop nutrients.

Cotton exports to touch lowest level in 19 years as farmers turn to more lucrative crops
India’s cotton exports are expected to reach their lowest level in 19 years during the current growing season as farmers turn to more lucrative crops like oilseeds and pulses, according to the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA). Prior to that, the value of cotton exports dropped from $2.65 billion to $678.75 million in FY23, a 75 per cent decrease.
Indian cotton yarn exports decreased to a decade low of 664,000 tonnes in FY23 from the record exports of 1.38 million tonnes in FY22. Following the end of the Covid-19 outbreak, demand for cotton yarn increased significantly, leading to record-breaking profits for cotton yarn producers, said Kedia Commodities.

Investors are now anticipating the US’s initial unemployment claims statistics for hints about the health of the labour market. Despite indications of reducing inflation, the European Central Bank and the Bank of England are both anticipated to raise rates further at their future meetings, it said.

CareEdge: Indian shipping industry likely to maintain its steady performance in FY24
The global shipping industry performed well from mid-CY2021 to CY2022 backed by recovery in charter rates across multiple vessel segments after the initial impact of the pandemic.
The outlook for the industry in CY2023 is mixed and will depend on capacity addition in each segment. With the global merchandise trade volume projected to slow down in CY2023 and given the highest capacity additions in CY2023-CY2024, the container shipping segment is expected to be the worst impacted.
The tanker segment is expected to maintain its CY2022 performance in CY2023 due to the lowest capacity addition and redistribution of crude trade flow by key consuming economies. The performance of the dry bulk carrier segment is expected to improve in the second half of CY2023 driven by supply-side dynamics.
The Indian shipping fleet is primarily dominated by crude and product tankers, accounting for the majority of the overall capacity at 57%. Dry bulk carriers follow at 16%, while container vessels make up approximately 5% of the fleet. Given that globally crude and product tankers are expected to outperform the container vessel segment and given the dominance of these vessel types in the Indian fleet, the Indian Shipping Industry is expected to maintain a steady performance in FY24.
Furthermore, the domestic fleet mainly consists of small to mid-size vessels, which are less susceptible to volatile charter rates. Considering these factors, CARE Ratings maintains a Stable outlook for the domestic shipping industry in FY24.
The financial performance of the two largest domestic shipping companies, namely Shipping Corporation of India Ltd and Great Eastern Shipping Company Ltd, reflects a consistent improvement in revenues and profitability during FY23. CARE Ratings anticipates that these companies, assumed to be representative of the Indian shipping industry contributing around 45-50% of the country’s total tonnage, will demonstrate a stable business and financial risk profile in the coming year.

Can Fin Home Finance Q1FY24 Review by Shreyansh Shah, Research Analyst, Stoxbox
One of the leading housing finance companies, Can Fin Home Finance, reported a mixed set of numbers in Q1FY24. The growth in profitability and other key parameters were average.
Also, the NPAs were up sequentially which was not expected by market participants. Although net profit exceeded street estimates, there has been some NIM compression on a YoY basis. We believe that going forward, the company will improve on its numbers as compared to Q1FY24 which tends to be a slow quarter. However, the management’s outlook on asset quality and NIMs will be the key monitorable.
