What are the eligibility for on unlisted
company for making a public issue?
An unlisted company has to satisfy the following criteria to be
eligible to make a public issue. Networth of the co. should not
be less than Rs.1 crore in last 3 out of last 5 years with
minimum networth to be met during immediately preceding 2
years and track record of distributable profits for at least 3
Year out of immediately preceding 5 years and the issue size
(i.e. offer through offer document + firm allotment +
promoters’ contribution through the offer document) shall not
exceed five (5) times its pre-issue networth. In case an
unlisted company does not satisfy any of the above criterion, it
can come out with a public issue only through the Book-
Building process. In the Book Building process the company
has to compulsorily allot at least sixty percent (60%) of the
issue size to the Qualified Institutional Buyers (QIBs), failing
which the full subscription monies shall be refunded.
Within how many days an investor should
receive the refund order/allotment advise?

Dispatch of refund orders / allotment advice


is to be within 2 working days of finalization
of the basis of allotment. Companies are
required to finalize the basis of allotment
within 30 days from the closure of the issue
in case of a fixed price issue and within 15
days from the closure of the issue in case of
a book building issue or else they are liable
to pay interest @ 15% p.a.
What is a Green-shoe Option?
Green Shoe option means an option of allocating shares

operating a post-listing price stabilizing mechanism for
a period not exceeding 30 days in accordance with the
provisions of Chapter VIIIA of DIP Guidelines, which is
granted to a company to be exercised through a
Stabilizing Agent. This is an arrangement wherein the
issue would be over allotted to the extent of a
maximum of 15% of the issue size. From an investor's
perspective, an issue with green shoe option provides
more probability of getting shares and also that post
listing price may show relatively more stability as
compared to market.
What is a Rights Issue?
Rights Issue (RI) is when a listed company
which proposes to issue fresh securities to
its existing shareholders as on a record
date. The rights are normally offered in a
particular ratio to the number of securities
held prior to the issue. This route is best
suited for companies who would like to
raise capital without diluting stake of its
existing shareholders unless they do not
intend to subscribe to their entitlements

What is Sector fund ?
They are the riskiest among equity funds, as they invest only in
specific sectors or industries. The performance of sector funds is
married to the fortunes of the specific sector or industry. This can
work both ways for sector funds. One way to maximize your returns
from sector funds is to get into the sector when it is expected to
zoom and get out before it falls. However, it is easier said than done.
Since you have managed a nodding acquaintance with various equity
funds, how do you choose the right one for you? First, identify the
category of equity funds you want to invest in. Next, evaluate the
performance record of the fund. Find out how it has performed over
the years compared to its competitors. Also, check out the reputation,
transparency in operations, etc.Make sure your fund has a diversified
portfolio. Avoid funds that have exposure to a few sectors or stocks,
as the performance of the fund will be tied to the performance of only
these stocks and not to the entire market performance. Also make
sure that the fund has a diversified investor base. A fund with a few
large investors will be forced to take orders from them, which may
not be in your interest.
What is Equity Scheme ?
Equity schemes are those that invest
predominantly in equity shares of companies.
Although an equity scheme seeks to provide
returns by way of capital appreciation, these
schemes are exposed to higher risks and hence
the returns may fluctuate. They invest only in
stocks, and hence, are the riskiest among
mutual fund schemes. However, these funds
offer the possibility of superior returns since
equities have historically outperformed all other
asset classes. At present, there are four types of
equity funds available in the market.
What is Balanced Schemes ?
Balanced schemes invest both in
equity shares and in income-bearing
instruments in such a proportion that
the portfolio is balanced. They aim to
reduce the risks of investing in stocks
by having a stake in the debt
markets. Thus debt and balanced
schemes offer a reasonable return
with a moderate risk exposure.
What is index fund ?
These funds track a key stock market index,
like the Bombay Stock Exchange Sensex or
the National Stock Exchange S & P CNX
Nifty. They invest only in stocks that form
the market index, as per the individual
stock weight ages. The idea is to replicate
the performance of the benchmarked index
to near accuracy. Index funds are
considered a passive investment vehicle, as
the performance of the fund will be almost
the same as the index concerned, except
for few minor points.
What is Gilt fund ?
Funds that invest only in government securities
and treasury bills. Such funds generally provide
marginally higher returns than a money market
fund, and are a good option for investors who
seek protection of principal. Gilt funds can also
be volatile due to increase or decrease in
interest rates. Gilt schemes invest in
government bonds, money market securities or
some combination of these. They have medium
to long-term maturities, typically of over one
year and have moderate returns. Since the
issuer is the central or state Governments, these
funds have reduced risk of default and hence
offer better protection of principal.
What is MIPs ?
MONTHLY INCOME PLANS are basically
debt schemes, which make marginal
investments in the range of 10-25
percent in equity to boost the scheme's
returns. MIP schemes are ideal for
investors who seek a slightly higher
return than pure long-term debt scheme
at a marginally higher risk. Declining
returns from income funds and
improved equity market performance
are two main reasons, which have given
an opportunity to launch these funds.
What is Debt Scheme ?
Debt schemes invest mainly in income-bearing
instruments like bonds, debentures, government
securities, commercial paper, etc. These instruments
are much less volatile than equity schemes. Their
volatility depends essentially on the health of the
economy e.g., rupee depreciation, fiscal deficit, and
inflationary pressure. Performance of such schemes
also depends on bond ratings. These schemes
provide returns generally between 7 to 12% per
annum. These funds invest in fixed-income
securities like bonds, Government of India
securities, debentures, commercial paper, call
money, etc. There are three types of debt funds.
What is Money Market Fund
Money Market Mutual Funds (MMMFs) : Such
funds have an objective of taking advantage of
the volatility in interest rates in the money
market instruments. The funds are invested in
certificate of deposits (CDs), interbank call
money market, commercial papers, T-bills and
short-term securities with a maturity horizon of
less than one year. Investors can participate
indirectly in the money market through
MMMFs. E.g. Money Market Fund. Its objective
is to preserve principal while yielding a
moderate return. MMMF's are favoured by
investors seeking low-risk investment avenues
that offer instant liquidity.
WHAT IS ELSS

SCAM IN INDIA
Ramalinga Raju Dinesh Dalmia

Harshad Mehta Abdul Karim Telgi

Ketan Parekh Virendra Rastogi

C R Bhansali The UTI Scam

Cobbler scam Uday Goyal

Sanjay Agarwal
Ramalinga Raju - Rs 8,000 crore
The biggest corporate scam in India has come from one of the most
respected businessmen. Satyam founder Byrraju Ramalinga Raju resigned
as its chairman after admitting to cooking up the account books. His efforts
to fill the "fictitious assets with real ones" through Maytas acquisition failed,
after which he decided to confess the crime. With a fraud involving about
Rs 8,000 crore (Rs 80 billion), Satyam is heading for more trouble in the
days ahead. On Wednesday, India's fourth largest IT company lost a
staggering Rs10,000 crore (Rs 100 billion) in market capitalisation as
investors reacted sharply and dumped shares, pushing down the scrip by
78 per cent to Rs 39.95 on the Bombay Stock Exchange. The NYSE-listed
firm could also face regulator action in the US. "I am now prepared to
subject myself to the laws of the land and face consequences there of,"
Raju said in a letter to SEBI and the Board of Directors, while giving details
of how the profits were inflated over the years and his failed attempts to "fill
the fictitious assets with real ones." Raju said the company's balance sheet
as of September 30 carries "inflated (non-existent) cash and bank
balances of Rs 5,040 crore (Rs 50.40 billion) as against Rs 5,361 crore
(Rs 53.61 billion) reflected in the books."
Harshad Mehta - Rs 4,000 crore
He was known as the 'Big Bull'. However, his bull run did not last too
long. He triggered a rise in the Bombay Stock Exchange in the year
1992 by trading in shares at a premium across many segments.
Taking advantages of the loopholes in the banking system, Harshad
and his associates triggered a securities scam diverting funds to the
tune of Rs 4000 crore (Rs 40 billion) from the banks to stockbrokers
between April 1991 to May 1992. Harshad Mehta worked with the
New India Assurance Company before he moved ahead to try his
luck in the stock markets. Mehta soon mastered the tricks of the
trade and set out on dangerous game plan. Mehta has siphoned off
huge sums of money from several banks and millions of investors
were conned in the process. His scam was exposed, the markets
crashed and he was arrested and banned for life from trading in the
stock markets. He was later charged with 72 criminal offences. A
Special Court also sentenced Sudhir Mehta, Harshad Mehta's brother,
and six others, including four bank officials, to rigorous imprisonment
(RI) ranging from 1year to 10 years on the charge of duping State
Bank of India to the tune of Rs 600 crore (Rs 6 billion) in connection
with the securities scam that rocked the financial markets in 1992.
He died in 2002 with many litigations still pending against him.
Ketan Parekh - Agrregate
Borrowings Rs1,500 Cr
Ketan Parekh followed Harshad Mehta's footsteps to swindle
crores of rupees from banks. A chartered accountant he used
to run a family business, NH Securities. Ketan however had
bigger plans in mind. He targeted smaller exchanges like the
Allahabad Stock Exchange and the Calcutta Stock Exchange,
and bought shares in fictitious names. His dealings revolved
around shares of ten companies like Himachal Futuristic,
Global Tele-Systems, SSI Ltd, DSQ Software, Zee Telefilms,
Silver line, pent media Graphics and Satyam Computer (K-10
scripts). Ketan borrowed Rs 250 crore from Global Trust Bank
to fuel his ambitions. Ketan along with his associates also
managed to get Rs 1,000 crore from the Madhavpura ercantile
Co-operative Bank. According to RBI regulations, a broker is
allowed a loan of only Rs 15 crore (Rs 150 million). There was
evidence of price rigging in the scripts of Global Trust Bank,
Zee Telefilms, HFCL, Lupin Laboratories, Aftek Infosys and
Padmini Polymer.
C R Bhansali - Rs 1,200 crore
The Bhansali scam resulted in a loss of over Rs 1,200 crore (Rs
12 billion). He first launched the finance company CRB Capital
Markets, followed by CRB Mutual Fund and CRB Share
Custodial Services. He ruled like financial wizard 1992 to 1996
collecting money from the public through fixed deposits, bonds
and debentures. The money was transferred to companies that
never existed. CRB Capital Markets raised a whopping Rs 176
crore in three years. In 1994 CRB Mutual Funds raised Rs 230
crore and Rs 180 crore came via fixed deposits. Bhansali also
succeeded to rise about Rs 900 crore from the markets.
However, his good days did not last long, after 1995 he
received several jolts. Bhansali tried borrowing more money
from the market. This led to a financial crisis. It became
difficult for Bhansali to sustain himself. The Reserve Bank of
India (RBI) refused banking status to CRB and he was in the
dock. SBI was one of the banks to be hit by his huge defaults.
Cobbler scam $600 million
Sohin Daya, son of a former Sheriff of Mumbai, was
the main accused in the multi -crore shoes scam.
Daya of Dawood Shoes, Rafique Tejani of Metro
Shoes, and Kishore Signapurkar of Milano Shoes
were arrested for creating several leather co-
operative societies which did not exist. They availed
loans of crores of rupees on behalf of these fictitious
societies. The scam was exposed in 1995. The
accused created a fictitious cooperative society of
cobblers to take advantage of government loans
through various schemes.Officials of the
Maharashtra State Finance Corporation, Citibank,
Bank of Oman, Dena Bank, evelopment Credit Bank,
Saraswati Co-operative Bank, and Bank of Bahrain
and Kuwait were also charge sheeted.
Dinesh Dalmia - Rs 595 crore

STOCK MARKET CRASH 1929
The 1920's were a time of unbelievable
prosperity. The stock market was going through
the roof and the United States seemed to have
the formula for limitless prosperity. However,
the same formula that generated all of that
profit would also be the cause of Black Tuesday.
Investment during the 1920's was based on the
unstable however, adding to the crash of '29
was the slowing economy. The desire for
consumer durables (expensive items
refrigerators, radios, and automobiles) went
down as Americans became satisfied with what
they had. This in turn affected the companies
and workers that produced these items. A
downward spiral was set in motion. The crash of
1929 ended the seemingly infinite prosperity of
the 1920s. Millionaires had become paupers
overnight. Those who believe in the strength of
the economic bubble and invested everything
they had lost everything they had. Of course,
the economy weakened and the unemployment
skyrocketed. The Great Depression had begun.
