Primary Markets Advisory Committee recommends Re 1 as face value of shares for all listed cos
Primary Markets Advisory Committee recommends Re 1 as face value of shares for all cos
PMAC (Primary Markets Advisory Committee) had a meeting yesterday and they are finalising this recommendation that all the listed companies should have a face value of Re 1 and now this recommendation has gone to the SEBI board, which will take a final view within 2-3 weeks. The basic argument behind this recommendation is that if there is a uniform value for listed companies, it is easy for the investor to understand EPS or P/E and it will be easy for them to understand the market. So, that is the basic argument and with this basic argument they have sent the recommendation.
The timeline says that within 2-3 weeks, SEBI board will take a final view, after that all the companies will have to split their stock, whether the face value is Rs 10 or 50 or 100 or 200 or 500. So, the ultimate result is within six months - that is the timeline that they are expecting - we will have a face value of Re 1 for all the listed companies and it will result in more floating stock for all listed companies and it will be good for all investors.

New Indian Says : “ Don’t Fear to Dream Big”
Old Indian Says : “ Don’t dare to dream Big.”
New Indian Says : “ Don’t Fear to Dream Big”
Its rightly said that the man who wins is the man who thinks he can, in other words,we can say that winners dare to dream Big.
Once the Great Late Dhiru Bhai Ambani said Bada bannne ke liye bada sapna dekhna jaruri hai, He dared to dream big and who does not know how he made the largest corporate of Nation.
For many centuries, we used to believe it’s fruitless to Dream a Big Dream. We had fear of dreaming big, as the fear of losing already had had been always making us too conscious and limited that we never tried to go beyond our boundaries. As result we were contented with what ever we had and consequently we became slave of those we dared to think beyond their boundaries.
But Fortunately time has been changed (God helps braves); Now we are in a new and bright INDIA where INDIANS will dictate the world Economy.
Arjuns of India who won Wars without Blood and became King in their respective field.
1) Laxmi Niwas Mittal: In true sense he has abode (Niwas) of Wealth (Laxmi). He made India proud of his endevour , after acquiring Arcelor, he became STEEL King of the earth (His company is No 1 in STEEL Production and NIPPON, the Second largest producer of Steel produces less than one third of his). One more thing we should not forget that he bought the most expensive house in the world . So now an Indian became STEEL King and he resides in most expensive palace of the world with him wife and his Son Aditya (CFO-Arcelor-Mittal Steel)

As the STEEL is the backbone of any economy so it is right to say that in coming future we Indian will dictate the Economy of the Earth.
5) Amitabh Bachchan: Who does not know this name.If it will be right ,we say the name Amitabh is now synonymous of fame,. He made India proud when he was declared Star Millennium by well known news channel BBC of UK in 2000.
