Dear Niveshaks,
With this first issue of 2015, we wish our readers a very happy and prosperous new year. The month of January saw SENSEX increase by 7.5% from the 2014 year end. This shows that the investors are continually looking towards Indian economic growth in future with positive sentiments.
Also the International Monetary Fund recently updated its World Economic Outlook report predicting that India’s GDP growth will overtake China’s in 2016 making it the fastest growing economy in the world. Our Finance Minister Mr. Arun Jaitley led the Indian delegation to the Davos Summit with a motto to showcase the ‘Make in India’ programme to the world leaders.
The Crude Oil is daily touching its new lows making the conditions worse for Oil producing countries. The first big effect was seen with S&P cutting Russia’s rating to Junk. However, falling prices come as a boon for India as it’s helping to achieve fiscal deficit target pegged at 4.1% of the GDP for the current fiscal year.
Lower than expected inflation enabled the first rate cut post Raghuram Rajan’s taking over the office of RBI. This long awaited rate cut would lead to a reduction in the financial costs, thus increasing profitability and adding on to the confidence of the industry as well amongst the investors. Our Prime Minister inaugurated the Vibrant Gujarat Global Summit, 2015 in the presence of US Secretary of State – John Kerry and U.N. Secretary General Ban Ki-moon where we saw a huge number of MOUs being signed and Reliance coming up with a plan of investing Rs 1 lakh crore in the next 12- 18 months.
With more and more focus on Financial Inclusion and Pradhan Mantri Jan Dhan Yojana by our government, our cover story for the month of January 2015 edition “Is Jandhan making PSBs Nirdhan?” would give readers an outlook with respect to the banking scenario in India and how PMJDY would impact the banks. The article of the month covers the topic Falling Oil Prices and its implications on Indian economy. On the other hand FinGyaan covers a deep insight into Euro Zone – Economic Crisis. FinSight column of the magazine try to highlight Retail Investment, a hot topic these days as markets are trading at all-time highs.
In keeping in line with the current Bull Run our FinLife portion of the magazine would guide you towards making investments through Mutual Funds. This month’s FinView hosted the interview of Prof. Maram Srikanth who discussed with us about the banking sector as well about the expectancy from Union Budget 2015-16. The Classroom learning section covers the intricacies of ‘Value Investing’ which is a well-known investment strategy, the one also backed up by none other than Warren Buffet. We would like to thank our readers for their immense support and encouragement. You remain our prime motivation factor that keeps our spirits high and give us the vigour and vitality to keep working hard.
