REASON - WHY FII IS SELLING Why Flls are not keen on India - A simplistic take! An investor earns 12% in rupee-denominated returns from Indian stocks. The rupee weakens by 3-4% over the same period. - The real return in dollar terms drops to around 8%. Factor in India's 12.5% to 20% capital gains tax, and the effective return drops further to around 6-7%. - In most developed markets (including U.S., UK, Japan, etc.), foreign investors are exempt from capital gains tax. Compare that to U.S. Treasury bonds, which currently offer 5% risk-free returns.... 1 0 replies

Tax takes a toll- Corporate Demat Account Traders of Reddit trading from a corporate demat account, how did you do it, and how effective has that been in saving taxes?

Good time to enter SBI CMP of SBI is currently around 736. Looks attractive to me because -- PE ratio is 8.29 (significantly lower than HDFC and ICICI which are at 18/19) -- ROE is also higher than HDFC and same as ICICI @ 17% -- PB ratio is also lowest amongst the three. -- corrected 20% from ATH of 720ish With lowering of interest rate by RBI (albeit marginally), it's looking decent for banking sector. Would appreciate your thoughts. 4 1 replies
Those invested in REITs and InvITs: what are the dividends like? (I'm sorry for intruding—I was unable to post this on r/IndiaInvestments.) Hi: I've been meaning to explore REITs and InvITs as (side) income-generating investment instruments, but could only find old and slightly out-of-date posts/info about the same here & elsewhere.

(Does it actually go as high as 10-11% for InvITs?) How voltatile are they? REITs, I realize, have been in a bit of... 1 1 replies

But since most of us are holding a lot of mid and small caps, something feels off. Money has been flowing into mid and small caps while getting pulled out of large caps. If you look at past trends, mid and small caps could take a brutal hit this time, while large caps are starting... 3 0 replies
Any suggestions Your **1-year P&L statement** shows a significant impact of **charges and taxes**, which are much higher than your actual loss. This suggests that transaction costs, brokerage fees, and taxation have played a major role in your overall financial outcome. If you've recently **shifted to swing trading**, it could be a strategic move to **reduce frequent transaction costs** and **minimize short-term tax liabilities** compared to intraday trading. However, you should analyze whether this shift is improving your net profitability or if adjustments are still needed in your strategy. Would you... 3 1 replies
