Latest News on Gitanjali Gems
Sebi has issued an order granting permission to the promoters of Gitanjali Gems to Buy Back 1.2 Crore shares of the company at a price up to Rs. 120 per share without making public announcement of the same. This move would increase Promoter’s stake in the company from existing 54.19% to 63.09%.
Investment Guru is of the view that the stock has good potential to move up from current level. The proposed Buy back of shares by promoters would also act as a short term trigger to the stock price.The reduction in the stock price may happen on account on general fall in market, but this risk stands good for any stock being traded in the market.

Good to see a review after long time from the Investment Guru : )
Buy Buy...short term target of Rs. 100
How has the company done in Q3...has it maintained its sales and profit ...could you highlight on this as this will indicate the impact of recession on the company.
does any body knows if gitanjali gems had hedged its foreign currency exposures ?
Boss...the stock is up 10% ...I am holding on the 200 shares I bought on monday..planning to exit at 80 and again enter if it continues going up!
Another positive for this company is that the valuation of its inventory of gold and diamonds has shot up significantly and this is not built in the valuations yet.
Boss...maan gaye...the stock is up 31% ...I am planning to sell 100 shares (kuch to jeb mein aaye)...will hold on to rest for some more time.
Good Analysis !
The Indian stock market is very diverse indeed.
As rupee is getting stronger day by day, exporters will be at loss. Also dollar is towards slope against many currencies.
Taking this into contribution I feel one should not invest in companies which are export oriented.
Thanks
