Beyond Market - February, 2024

In dieser Angelegenheit

The month of February began with the Finance Minister
Nirmala Sitharaman presenting the Interim Budget for
2024-25. Despite remaining muted, the budget
announcement failed to create a buzz among businesses and
masses. Nevertheless, certain aspects of her speech
managed to capture the attention and interest of many.

One noteworthy point was the emphasis placed on capital
expenditure in both the government and the private sector,
coinciding with the Budget’s announcement of an 11.1%
increase in government capex. The cover story of this issue
highlights areas earmarked for the new capital expenditure
and explores the potential beneficiaries of these investments.
This issue also features articles discussing the potential and
opportunities in the blue economy owing to the importance
given to the fishery sector in the Budget. Additionally, it digs
into the impact of supportive policies and lower costs on the
increased use of solar energy. Furthermore, the advantages
to investors are explored in an article on the proposed
introduction of same-day settlement in the stock markets.

You will also find interesting reads on the growing preference
for road travel over air travel in domestic travel, promotions
and offers implemented by FMCG companies to increase
their topline and bottomline, the importance of prudence and
mindfulness for new-age investors in making investment
decisions and planning for their future. Lastly, there is an
article on the growing interest in luxurious products and
services among Indians due to higher disposable incomes.

Do skim through the mutual fund blackboard section to
identify schemes that are offering good returns and could,
therefore, be considered for inclusion in your investment
portfolios.

Also, an interesting survey states that “doomed spending” is
on the rise among Americans who prioritize living in the
moment over saving for a rainy day. Find out more about this
trend in the Beyond Learning section.
