There’s a proverb Fake it untill you make it.
Since I don’t see much progress or activities in this company so company might have released something that makes people think of their work contribution or involvement in the industrial activities. As someone suggested they may come up with QIP or atleast increase their shareholder to a minimum so that it can appear in many screens as promoters increased their share . Poor investors if they can’t understand the math behind it

Any view on the unit economics of QC, specifically BlinkIt?
Zomato – Should you order? (05-11-2024)
BlinkIt or Zepto (QC: quick commerce) service will sustain and grow since the service provides extreme convenience, specifically in metro cities and for items that are required immediately, unique and fresh.
Per AR of FY24, BlinkIt is yet to breakeven at the EBITDA level. Also, management is focused to densify and expand stores at EBITDA level breakeven. Customers already pay MRP or best price compared to ‘slow reaching value offers’ along with platform fee and tip to the rider for convenience.
What levers QC has on the revenue side and cost side to improve gross and operating margins? AR disclosures are not sufficient for my mind to make any progress on this aspect.
Anyone has any opinion on this aspect?
Raymond – The Complete Man (05-11-2024)
Booking value (no. of units sold) gets a bump-up with new launches. Since new launches don’t happen every quarter, this could be uneven. I guess there were a couple of new launches in Q2 of last year

Devendra Fadnavis, the deputy CM of Maharashtra emphasizing how important river linking is.

CM Eknath Shinde seems to be echoing his thoughts.

Again, this could be a pre-election stunt for the upcoming Maharashtra elections, but one can never know for sure.
Investment journey of a late starter (05-11-2024)
I do not have any since it was semi trade not a proper investment based on own conviction . WPIL thread in VP , some entries in Mr. Rajeev Jawahar’s thread in VP and some details in screener along with a few call transcripts is all that I read and entered as it seemed a good opportunity for quick gains . These lines of businesses are capital heavy ,highly competitive and usually is not very highly valued . More importantly , I am not a very good at analysing these to build strong conviction . So I trade in and out …bought at 3088 and exited at 3930… again bought at 368 and sold at 525 (very sharp run up ) . Will enter again if it pulls back and settles …it has enough reasons to go up for a while if the water works theme sustains as it has better results ahead in coming 2 quarters.
