Discount brokers' revenue to trim 25% with new Sebi norms

For many brokers, derivatives account for 95% of their volume, in line with market trends. However, the extent of impact will vary based on business model--being a discount or full-service brokers. While discount brokers are set to see at least 25% dip in their pretax profit, full service ones may find it easier to go with 10% fall in pre-tax profit, as per a Crisil analysis.

The Sebi blow came in on the heels of stock exchanges had revised their transaction charges from September 27, which will impact profitability, especially of discount brokers.

Top-tier show: India back on track

Recently, researchers in Germany discovered an old piece by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, one of the most recognised and prominent music composers of the Classical era almost 233 years after his death. The newly discovered 'Serenade in C' is a work made up of seven miniature pieces for a string trio - which means it needs three artists to come together and be in sync to play it. For India, at the Dubai International Stadium on Wednesday evening against Sri Lanka, Mozart was never going to inspire as such, but just like the newly discovered piece, India needed a specific trio to stand up. To make the maximum impact possible in the group of death where only minimum slip-ups were allowed.
