The dark alleys!

IIPM PUBLICATION

Brihan-Mumbai Electric Supply and Transportation Undertaking (BEST) of- ficials are openly expressing their exuberance over the reduced demand of electricity at least in Mumbai. This year BEST has demanded 2,700 MW power, taking into account a shortfall of 500 MW per day. The gravity of the paucity is gauged from the fact that the state of Maharashtra faces electricity shortage to the tune of 5,700 MW. No wonder, with such outrageous shortfall, the farmers in the state are driven to suicide.

If we take the capital city of Delhi into account, it is believed that annually the demand increases by 350-400 MW. The government & the power distribution companies keep harping about the enormous shortage of power. However, a closer look at the electricity management reveals that there is enough power to feed the capital. This is clearly evident from the fact that for kilometres the high-wattage halogen street-lights remain on during most of the day & ludicrously get extinguished as the night begins to fall.

The dry, dry sahara!

IIPM BUSINESS & ECONOMY

After the acrimony that reverberated in the media throughout 2006-07, Naresh Goyal raised many eyebrows when he accepted Sahara’s hand in marriage yet again! Surely, only a few could see it coming, after the unceremonious break-up & bitter legal proceedings following an equally hasty affair – one that finally forced Naresh to accept the cursed ring, and an expensive one at that!

As Surbhi Chawla, Aviation Analyst, Angel Trade reveals exclusively to B&E, “Yes, it is a more of a compromise... the overall competitive environment hasn’t improved since last one year when the deal was first announced.” Certainly, Jet seems to have understood that instead of paying Rs.5 billion for nothing, they could shell out (a lot) more and get at least the limited brand equity, some parking bays & the biggest loss-making domestic airline in India. Binit Somaia, Regional Director, Centre for Asia-Pacific Aviation (CAPA), spoke to B&E, “If one was to start with a clean sheet today, it is unlikely that Jet Airways would be interested in acquiring Air Sahara... Given the history of last year, the alternative to this latest deal could possibly have been even more costly. But Air Sahara is making signifi cant losses, likely the highest in India...”

As the front runner in India’s real estate development, what more could one expect?

IIPM BEST B-SCHOOL

And a broker who did not wish to be quoted told B&E that the going grey market price for the share was Rs.900, according to which this worth would shoot up even further to a mind boggling $31.3 billion. It is no wonder, therefore, that speculators feel that the DLF IPO would propel K. P. Singh to the topmost ranks of the world’s richest.

Of course, some things can be too good to be true, and DLF faces this very quagmire currently. For K. P. Singh, the adage, “Wait for the right time and you will have to wait forever” seems to be quite apt. SEBI is still investigating the charges by minority shareholders against DLF. And there is another issue that has cropped up recently; SEBI seems adamant to come down heavily on real estate companies that state their land valuations on futures in their red herring prospectus, which could affect DLF as well. And to top it all, while the minority shareholders issue spoilt the party last year; this time around, it seems that the entire real estate market seems to be catching cold feet.
