1) It does matter to me if the stock I own does not get noticed (in terms of price increases). That is because we do not want to be holding stocks for 10 years ultimately the objective of investing is capital gains and not control. 

2) Under the Direct Tax code you will have that advantage but maybe some CA can opine better on this. As per the Draft individuals will get a deduction on their capital gains whereas companies might not qualify for that. In the present case LTCG is tax free for individuals whereas it is treated as Business income for companies.

generally I have observed that there is a disperancy even in sales figures for the numbers reported in websites and annual reports of the company. there also seems some sort of disperancy between for the numbers reported by the same company when used in comparing previous year to this year. I mean  the figures in 2008 annual report are not same as the figures in 2009 annual report (2008 figures are given comparitively as previous year). Is there any website where we get comparitive figures other than downloading from company website.


There is nothing more holy then the AR if there is some descrepency then it would be because of some re-grouping of previous year's figures but broad numbers like sales, profits EPS should be the same.

Thanks both of you for your replies. I'll be having this discussions with our CA and let you know the outcome. For those who are into agriculture or are farmers ( holding agriculture land on their names) can avail loans under agri. head which has flexibilities to invest the loans capital on other heads. I know of Kotak who has started this loan. The loans would be given against the land.

In balance sheet, company disclose "Loans and Advances" along with Debtors and Inventories.

Question: Is it safe to assume that this "Loans and Advances" are creditors and hence we can use it to calculate creditors days? or is there any "interest" bearing component on this "Loans and Advances" money?

No these are assets that the company has given out to others and will either be recovered or else be adjusted in future business transactions.

Why do you want to calculate Creditors' days? This simply says that on average, company pays to its creditors in x number of days. This information is not really beneficial. I generally assume that these are cash outflows (even though they have not been paid now).

During review of bulk deals, I have observed various buy / sell on a very small difference by the same person in a company.

Example :
14-Jun-2010 Insecticides In (BSE) Smart Equity Brokers Private Limited SELL 68720 189.67
14-Jun-2010 Insecticides In (BSE) Smart Equity Brokers Private Limited BUY 68720 189.66
 
There are numerous transaction of similar nature in the same stock over last 2-3 months. I have seen this phenomenon in various companies esp newly listed.
 
What is the rationale of doing these transactions? Is it due to jobbing or other reasons?
