Shivalik Bimetal Controls Ltd (SBCL) (05-10-2024)
Thanks @GourabPaul
It is quite clear this is a customer-driven requirement, has been for a few years. As explained by Management earlier they had no time to puase (from ramping up on shunts/bimetal supply). Now with the demand-pause, the timing is right for forward integration, and SBCL has gone into execution mode on this.
Given that there is confidence of significant commercial sales within 6 months to 1 year, one should easily connect the dots on which options are likely being pursued. Sometimes young investors forget the fact that this is a business/management which has achieved a global market share of 10-12% in EBW Shints against tremendous odds and decades of effort; give them credit that they have enough wisdom to play to their strengths and do what is right!
[SBCL maintains they only pursue segments where they can enjoy significant technology-process-led competotive advantages; that’s like ingrained in their DNA]
Having said that, I remember one of the hesitations earlier (2 years back) to plunge into current-sensing PCB modules was Mgmt’s assertion that the design-approaches from Tier1/OEMs were a bit fluid and that they would like to bite, only when sure. @GourabPaul this is something you may like to pursue and make us more educated. Hella and Continental are among the likely Tier1s, so studying their design freeze, might give us some clues?
Tanla Platforms ~ Leading player in the fast-growing CPaaS market (05-10-2024)
@Anna, I wanted to ask who the DLT partners are for Airtel and Jio, similar to Tanla for Vi. Do you think the URL whitelisting rule will help Tanla gain market share, especially with the rush to register URLs? Also, it seems like funding in the sector has dried up, which I think might be a good thing—what’s your take on that? Lastly, do you think Airtel will have an edge over OTT messaging, like they do with SMS? I feel the market is going to shift dramatically from SMS to OTT, and India seems like a massive opportunity—for instance, WhatsApp has the most active users here. Too many questions, I know

SC allows claiming ITC on construction expenses (05-10-2024)
In a development that may encourage increased investment in commercial real estate, the Supreme Court on Thursday gave the industry relief by permitting input tax credit (ITC) on construction expenses for buildings meant to be leased. “If the construction of a building was essential for carrying out the activity of supplying services, such as renting or giving on lease or other transactions in respect of the building or a part thereof, which are covered by clauses (2) and (5) of Schedule II of the CGST (Central Goods and Services Tax) Act, the building could be held to be a plant,” said Justice Abhay S Oka and Justice Sanjay Karol.
