FII flows turn positive; long-term capital returning to India: Sachin Shah

"Clearly, US corporates are looking at global alternate,
supply chains
are getting created, and multiple countries whether it is India, Indonesia, Vietnam, South America whichever company or whichever corporates will have their own strengths, they will get their share of business, so that is a mega trend that we are going to witness over the next three, five, seven, ten years and we strongly believe that will continue," says

Now Moody's upgrade has come in. China has also decided to cut its lending rate and, of course, China and the United States are engaged in a slew of discussions with respect to the trade deal, the interim trade deal that they signed. How do you expect all of this
global market action
to have an impact on the India market?
Sachin Shah:
So, the good thing is that the
trade war
that we were all witnessing for the last few months, the intensity over there seems to be cooling off quite significantly from US with most of the countries, so that is a very positive thing and Indian companies obviously wherever we have a strong value proposition from each of our businesses, this is what I have mentioned a few times even earlier on this show, that wherever we have our strong value propositions whether it is your speciality chemicals, pharmaceuticals, textiles, electronics, manufacturing, engineering, quite a few other industries I do not think there is going to be any challenge over there.

Clearly, US corporates are looking at global alternate, supply chains are getting created, and multiple countries whether it is India, Indonesia, Vietnam, South America whichever company or whichever corporates will have their own strengths, they will get their share of business, so that is a mega trend that we are going to witness over the next three, five, seven, ten years and we strongly believe that will continue.
So, can we also say we have moved from chaos to clarity because the world is reshuffling and India definitely is standing out. The kind of cues and triggers you just mentioned, the kind of sectors that is going to benefit now, do you think among the emerging market pack India is definitely going to stand out in a couple of quarters' time frame that you just mentioned?
Sachin Shah:
Well, we definitely believe so and it is not that we will have a share for all the businesses, but at least there are seven or eight sectors where we believe that
Indian corporates
have the right to win. They have demonstrated that they have the domain expertise. They have demonstrated that they can deliver the scale for the global demand and where they also respect the intellectual property rights. So, whether it is auto ancillaries, speciality chemicals, pharmaceuticals, electronics manufacturing, engineering and within engineering I would say hardcore engineering, power equipments, textiles, so these are few sectors where we believe that Indian corporates, Indian companies have clearly demonstrated the right to win and over the next two-three quarters, we are really standing out in terms of our incremental market share that we are going to gain over the next few years.
Live Events
So, you are suggesting that there is going to be an incremental market share that India is going to corner with respect to the other
emerging markets
, but is that the view that you hold for FIIs as well and, of course, now that at the moment the India-Pakistan skirmishes, well both sides have agreed for an understanding, a larger understanding, minister Piyush Goyal is also in the United States, but what could be the next big trigger for the Indian markets to sort of have a disproportionate movement.
Sachin Shah:
So, as far as
foreign institutional investors
are concerned, the trend is clearly reversed there. Since the month of March, April, and even May we are seeing significant amount of positive flows on a continuous basis and even if you see some of the hardcore data, the selling started sometime in I would say September 24 or October 24, they sold almost worth two lakh plus crores from October till February or March and that was the number that they had bought from January 24 to almost September 24th.
What I am trying to say is that the hot money which had come in probably went out and it got more or less settled and now we are seeing very decent amount of, very-very stable long-term money which is we are getting.

Patil Automation set for NSE SME debut today. GMP hints at modest premium

Pune-based Patil Automation is set to list on the NSE SME platform today after seeing overwhelming investor demand during its Rs 69.61 crore IPO . The issue was subscribed an impressive 101.42 times overall, driven by robust interest from non-institutional investors (NII) who bid 258 times their quota. Retail investors subscribed 44.77 times, while the Qualified Institutional Buyer (QIB) category was booked 82.92 times. Ahead of the listing, the grey market premium (GMP) for Patil Automation shares is hovering around ₹31, indicating a listing price of Rs 151 per share—nearly 26% higher than the issue price of Rs 120. While GMPs are unofficial and not always accurate indicators, the premium reflects positive sentiment among investors. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Why Seniors Are Snapping Up This TV Box, We Explain! Techno Mag Learn More Undo The IPO consisted entirely of a fresh issue of 58 lakh shares. Anchor investors had pumped in Rs 19.81 crore ahead of the IPO opening, with 16.51 lakh shares allocated at the upper price band. The funds raised will be used primarily to set up a new manufacturing facility and repay a portion of the company's borrowings. Founded in 2015, Patil Automation provides automation and robotics solutions across industries including automotive, electronics, and general engineering. Its product range includes robotic welding systems, automated assembly lines, conveyor systems, and AI-based vision inspection systems. The company operates five facilities and has over 500 personnel including contractual workers. Live Events For FY25, the company posted a net profit of Rs 11.70 crore on a revenue of Rs 122 crore, with PAT margins at 9.91% and ROE at 27.28%. The IPO valued the firm at a post-issue P/E of around 22.4x. Given the strong subscription figures and current GMP, the listing is likely to be positive, though post-listing performance may depend on broader market trends and investor appetite for SME stocks.

Dollar firms as markets brace for Iran response to US attacks

The U.S. dollar firmed slightly on Monday as anxious investors sought safety, although the moves were muted so far suggesting markets were waiting for Iran's response to U.S. attacks on its nuclear sites that have exacerbated tension in the Middle East. The major moves were in the oil market, with oil prices hitting a five-month high, while global stocks slipped in the first market reaction to the U.S. attacks over the weekend. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like An engineer reveals: 1 simple trick to get all TV channels Techno Mag Learn More Undo In currency markets, the dollar advanced broadly against most rivals. It was up 0.25% against the Japanese yen at 146.415 after touching a one-month high earlier in the session. The euro was 0.33% lower at $1.1484, while the Australian dollar, often seen as risk proxy, weakened 0.2% to $0.6437, hovering near its lowest level in over three weeks. That left the dollar index, which measures the U.S. currency against six other units, 0.12% higher at 99.037. Sterling was 0.25% lower at $1.34175, while the New Zealand dollar also fell 0.24% to $0.5952. Live Events Carol Kong, currency strategist at Commonwealth Bank of Australia , said the markets are in wait-and-see mode on how Iran responds, with more worries about the positive inflationary impact of the conflict than the negative economic impact. "The currency markets will be at the mercy of comments and actions from the Iranian, Israeli and U.S. governments. The risks are clearly skewed to further upside in the safe haven currencies if the parties escalate the conflict." Iran vowed to defend itself a day after the U.S. dropped 30,000-pound bunker-buster bombs onto the mountain above Iran's Fordow nuclear site. American leaders urged Tehran to stand down while pockets of anti-war protests emerged in U.S. cities. In a step towards what is widely seen as Iran's most effective threat to hurt the West, its parliament approved a move to close the Strait of Hormuz. Nearly a quarter of global oil shipments pass through the narrow waters that Iran shares with Oman and the United Arab Emirates. "Markets appear to be treating the U.S. strikes on Iran as a contained event for now, rather than the start of a broader war," said Charu Chanana, chief investment strategist at Saxo. "The muted haven flows suggest investors are still assuming this is a one-off escalation, not a disruption to global oil supply or trade." While the dollar has reprised its role as a safe haven due to the rapid escalation in geopolitical tension, the relatively muted moves suggested investors remain wary of going all in on the greenback. The U.S. currency has dropped 8.6% this year against its major rivals as economic uncertainty from President Donald Trump's tariffs and concern over their impact on U.S. growth has led to investors scurrying for alternatives. In cryptocurrencies, bitcoin was up 1.3% in early trading after dropping about 4% on Sunday, while ether rose 2.3% on Monday after sliding 9% in the previous session.
