Know the company background research of different companies to invest.

Click on images to get started.

Just as investors invest in any other type of investments, such as fixed deposits, recurring deposits (RD), Post office deposits and hope to make a profit on it after a certain time.

Also, Mutual Fund Investment is also an excellent medium of investment where investors can earn better returns by investing.

“Mutual Fund is a less risky option with more profit”

What is Mutual Funds?

Mutual fund is made with two words – Mutual and fund

Mutual means – mutual, mixed, mutual bonding,

fund means – money (money collected together).

In this way Mutual Fund means – a lot of people were gathered together to invest money.

Mutual Funds managed by a Fund Manager who has experience in financial markets.

In this way, the money deposited from different investors is invested in stock market and government or corporate bonds, etc. according to the objective and condition already stated in that mutual fund.

In other words, “Mutual fund is an INVESTMENT system in which a huge FUND is prepared by mixing together the money of many people and Managed by Fund Manager.

How Mutual Funds works –

Mutual Fund is a Unit Investment System

Mutual fund is a system of investment in which money is deposited, deposited from different investors, and units are given to the investors in exchange for the money deposited,

Mutual Fund Unit & Mutual Fund Unit Holder:

Mutual fund investor is called a unit holder.

A unit given to a mutual fund investor has a price, also known as a mutual fund unit price,

And this unit price changes daily, which tells the profit or loss to the investor in the mutual fund,

NFO- New Fund Offer

Any mutual fund scheme, when the offer that is brought to the public to invest in the scheme for the first time, is called New Fund Offer.

In NFO, investors are offered Unit of Mutual Fund for a fixed Price.

For example, if TATA brings a mutual fund scheme, then KIM (Key Information), SID (Scheme Offer Document) and leaflets can be seen on its website, Where all information related to the offer is available,

NFO also has a minimum investment Amount, like 5000, or 10000 rupees,

And the NFO opens for a few days, and then becomes CLOSE,

Once the NFO is CLOSE, suppose

The company collected Rs 10 crore from NFO, and had a unit PRICE of Rs 10,

So in this way there are total units, 1 crore,

And if I put 50000 rupees in NFO, then I will get 5000 units,

Let’s assume profits are 15 % and consider one year.

Now total profit for one year will be 1.5 crore. The profits divided by no. of shares.

After calculation we got 1.5 RS Profit for each share.

Now you have 5000 shares ,then total profits = 1.5 x 5000= 7500 RS.

You have to remember the below point for investing in Mutual Funds.

First you have to check shariah compliance Mutual Funds.
In India there are only few funds which are shariah compliant and they will show shariah certificates.
Needs patience to hold for a long time ,Minimum 10 years for good results.
The Best way to invest in Mutual Funds through SIP (Systematic investment plan).
Invest in Mutual Funds through Direct Plan, not Regular Plan.
In Mutual funds you can create more money due to Power of Compounding. Compounding works only for long terms.
Mutual Funds Needs regular investments.
You can start with a minimum 5000 RS for the first time and after this multiple of 100 will be okay.
You have to diversify your monthly investment in at least 3 funds.
You can invest in Lump Sum amounts also.

I hope you will learn and understand about the Mutual Funds. This is based on my research for educational purposes.

Wishing you best for your investment Journey. Jaza kallah Khair.

Evolution of Business – Geographic Expansion

The Company has 3- segment:

Food items- Revenue sharing- 51.25%
Non-Foods – Revenue —- – 20.46%
General & Apparel – Revenue- – 28.29%

In India still have more penetration space for groceries sectors.
They work on revers logistic so that reduce the cost of transport.
The new stores in the same markets reach absolute high revenue immediately, within three months, six months or one year.

Management :

Highly skilled and more competent with these sectors.
Founder and chairman, both have Tycon of the share market. They have good capabilities to make the profit. Also they have a good track record to generate profits with honesty.
CEO- he is also a very competent person and serving this company for the last 16 years. Before, I was a market researcher in HUL.
They have SOPS for daily work, their employees and vendors.
I have seen CSR activity and I also checked they are spending 2% profits of average 3 years net profit. As per mention in the annual report.
Promoters have 75 % Shareholding.

Expansion :

Working on many projects such as new store openings, Find new market potential, E-commerce and fresh deals.
Also they are trying to take land for lease instead of buying full properties. This will help to reduce time and cost to open a new store.
But the lease years must be more than 9 years .It may be 30 years like this. Many landlords offer 9 year leases but they are refusing. This is a good strategy.
Fresh stores have already started in Mumbai. Anyone can buy online and he will get very near to pick his delivery. This pick up point will be a small shop like 200 -300 sq. feet space with 2-3 people will be available for customer service. Started on pilot basis.
They are working to make delivery same day or next day .The customers who purchase from online.
Also have a minimum purchase limit for delivery 1000 SR compared to big basket 1500 SR.

Risk Factors:

Low Price- Their main motto is to sell at low price as compared to others. But how long they will survive if other players come and also sell at a low price. Then how you hold the customer.

E-Commerce- This market is going to next booms in groceries retailing. Many retailers are already working and many are coming. They are also in the initial stage. How to manage.

About Management:

Founder: Mr. Radhakrishnan Damani.

According to Forbes’ Real-Time Billionaires Index, the promoters of D Mart, Mr. Radhakishan Damani, have been named as 2nd richest Indian as on February 15, 2020 with a net worth a $17.8 billion.

-He is an independent non-executive director of Aptech Ltd..
He also holds membership in BST ltd, a capital market company in Mumbai which has been active for more than 100 years.

RD – wear a white shirt and white trousers. That’s why people call him Mr. White.

The Damani family’s holding in the recently-listed Avenue Supermarts is close to Rs 40,000 crore. It would be “safe and conservative” – as one market watcher puts it, to add another Rs 15,000 crore as the value of RD’s other stock market investments. This is counting out a few more thousands of crores Damani would have made in his stock trading career spanning over 40 years.

But nobody really knew RD in the 80s. A few people who knew him, called him ‘GS’, because of his ‘entry badge.
“RD is a very positive player in times of crisis… He’s a shrewd investor; makes more money when he’s bearish,”
RD was not very active in the market between 2001 and 2004 as he was busy setting up Avenue Supermarts in Mumbai and Gujarat. Several acquaintances have seen RD travelling in his Fiat Uno across Mumbai assessing good spots for his DMart stores. Some people say, RD used to work 12 – 14 hours every day of the week.

Annual Report- 2017:

Our business model has stood the test of time, and we are focused on doing a few things but doing it well and ensuring we continue to be amongst the preferred retailers in India.

Value retail is a tough business. There is intense competition, and a constantly evolving dynamic in the form of market forces and consumer preferences.
For nearly 15 years, we have focused on the core needs of our customers, aligned our systems & processes in line with their needs, and delivered steady growth in our revenues and profitability.

Annual Report-2018:

In the past decade, the retail industry has seen significant changes globally. This is aided by momentum in technology adoption and urbanization.
In India, nearly half of the country’s private consumption is attributed to the retail industry. With supportive legislation and increasing disposable income, formal retail is expected to see good growth in the coming years.
Our team has continued directing all efforts towards providing good quality everyday use products at low prices to our customers. We constantly focus on the “voice of the customer” and I believe this has helped us fine-tune our offerings in line with what our customers are seeking.
We consider our employees, our partners, the society and the environment as important stakeholders of the business.
Our team has continued directing all efforts towards providing good quality everyday use products at low prices to our customers.

Annual Report-2019:

Our unwavering focus to delight and surprise our customers has paid off over the years and we are continuing to build on the customer trust we have earned.
We carry forward our ‘Everyday Low Cost, Everyday Low Price’ model to attract more customers to the world of DMart. We continue to open new stores using our cluster-based expansion model.
Our employees are central to our operations. Every day, they work hard with the end objective of delivering good quality products at a great value for every customer. They enable DMart to be the customer-centric organisation that we position ourselves as.
We will continue on our journey to be more accessible and affordable for our customers, by expanding our reach and improving our processes constantly. We strongly value and thank all our vendors and partners for their continued commitment and support. We will always act as a responsible citizen, accountable to society and the environment. Through all this, we will continue to deliver superior shareholder value as well.

2- Managing Director & CEO: Ignatius Navil Noronha.

He received an undergraduate degree from SIES College of Commerce & Economics and a graduate degree from Narsee Monjee Institute of Management Studies.
D-Mart was set up in 2001 and Noronha joined it in 2004 as head of business.
Damani hired Noronha, who was in his early 20s then, from consumer goods giant Hindustan Unilever, where he was a young executive in market research, sales and modern trade.
People who know him say the recent IPO was the only time when Noronha addressed the media. “He attends conferences and seminars as a participant and not as a speaker,” says an executive who knows him.
“What makes him special is that he knows how to run the company profitably in a segment that has high overheads,” says the executive with DMart.
D-Mart owns most of its stores unlike other chains. It is a consistently profitable retailer and has the best margins in the industry.
Noronha is behind the best practices that have helped DMart, which pays its suppliers within 48 hours of delivery. They, in turn, allow an additional 2-3% gross margin to the chain, enabling it to keep prices low.

CONCALL:

CEO – June 12, 2019

We should have store level profitability, do not worry about store addition, do not worry about growth, everything will.
They are working on Fresh and cash and carry models.
Fresh already started in Mumbai, We now have 196 D-Mart Ready Pick-up Points in Mumbai. They are typical 200-300 square feet stores. On a lighter note, one deep insight is that it is easier to open 200 square feet store compared to 30,000 square
Earlier we used to say we would purchase real estate but now we are saying we will also do long-term lease because we know, if we want to open more than 20 stores, only ownership will not work but at the same time nine years lease is a very short period for us. So, we are seeing long-term lease. Also, we are working hard on ensuring that our real estate teams are well bolstered.
We like and hope that everybody in the 3 to 5 Kms radius comes and shops at our stores. That is our simple approach to the business.
They work on reverse logistic so that reduce the cost of transport.
We have only one simple principle – if the product is good and business is good, then we will bend our back to ensure that the vendor is comfortable. That is the philosophy.
We do not want to do what others are trying to do. We want to stand for something a little bit exceptional.
I come from HUL, I spent eight years there. In fact, I started my career in market research, my first two years was in market research and you can’t believe the kind of work we used to do. So, it’s not easy.
DIVIDEND NOT PAID WHY? The Company is still in the growth phase. And we have been listed for two years, so our priority at this time is conservation of available money with us and invest the same in growth. And you are seeing growth. So, we believe that is a better deployment of funds, rather than paying back the shareholders. We think the money available with us is better invested in this growth trajectory that we are in.
The new stores in the same markets reach the absolute high revenue immediately, within three months, six months or one year.

We now have 196 D-Mart Ready Pick-up Points in Mumbai. They are typical 200-300 square feet stores. On a lighter note, one deep insight is that it is easier to open 200 square feet store compared to 30,000 square

Massage from CEO:

Annual Report- 2017:

Our first DMart store opened in 2002, our 10th store in 2008, our 100th store in 2016 and we are now at 131 stores.
As I reflect on the past at each of these milestones, one singular thought that comes to my mind repeatedly is that tomorrow has larger opportunities and newer challenges than today’s achievements. A lot has been achieved and yet, there is so much more to be done.
The magnanimity and scale of this opportunity continues to keep us awake at night. My team and I are fully aware of this and are striving to build the DMart for tomorrow.
Year-after-year, we have stayed on the path of providing value through good products at great value, in a functional and convenient environment.
Our challenge and opportunity is to retain the same level of commitment and relevance among our employees, suppliers and partners to ensure we remain rooted to our core philosophy of value retailing.
We strongly believe that spending disproportionate time and efforts to up-skill and enhance competencies of existing employees brings significant tangible and intangible long-term benefits to the organization.
As we garner more footfalls to our stores, we look to further build scale and thus benefit from the resulting economics. Through our ‘Everyday Low Cost / Every Day Low Price’ strategy, we envisage a win-win situation for the customers and the Company

Annual Report-2018:

The year 2017-18 marked the opening of our 150th store. A significant milestone indeed! It took us 14 years to reach our 100th store and the next 50 opened in 2 years.
We will continue with our long-standing ethos of “ability having precedence over opportunity.
We aspire to remain competitive in a challenging and an ever-changing retail environment, while maintaining our value proposition to customers.
We will remain true to our credo of “Everyday Low Cost /Everyday Low Price” by focussing on achieving higher volumes and keeping procurement and operation costs low thus enabling us to consistently provide good quality products at low prices.
Our CSR initiatives have made good progress in providing better quality education in public schools of Mumbai. This year our efforts had a positive impact on more than 75,000 school children of the Municipal Corporation of Greater Mumbai (MCGM), by contributing to better infrastructure and learning systems. The direction is aligned towards the same ethos as our business – address each issue as deep and as comprehensively as possible.

Annual Report-2019:

We follow a cluster-based expansion approach. We thus focus on deepening our penetration in the areas where we are already present, before expanding to newer regions. Using this strategy, we added 21 stores in FY 2018-19, thus ending the year with 176 stores spread across 11 states and 1 Union Territory.
Our journey to build something valuable, exciting and endearing continued in the year 2018-19, albeit a bit slower. We ended the year with 176 stores, adding 21 new stores.
We could have done better. While all operating metrics were good, I am personally disappointed with our store opening outcomes. It is partly structural and partly our own weakness. I say structural because we typically prefer to buy land and then construct the buildings.
I also say it is our weakness because internally there are certain areas in this vertical which we can improve upon. However, it is not a problem we cannot solve, the only question to ask is ‘by when?’ We are working mighty hard on this… we hope to make good progress over the next few years.
This year operating metrics such as Same Store Sales Growth (SSSG), operating expenditure, turnover per square feet and revenue run rate of newly opened stores was very encouraging. Within those high points, SSSG pleasantly surprised us. It partly compensated for the unsatisfactory new store addition.
DMart Ready in Mumbai is still very small in terms of revenue as well as scale of operations. In a lot of ways, it is reminiscent of how the DMart business was in the initial days around 15 years back. It took a lot of time. It’s a work in progress.
We are making a lot of mistakes, but we are learning quickly. We see DMart Ready as a long gestational project that could see relatively significant outcomes after 5-7 years, maybe even more. We are in this for the long term.

Business Overview from Annual Reports:

Business & Operation:

Annual Report-2017:

During FY 2016-17, India saw some key economic policy developments – Demonetisation of Specified Bank Notes (` 500 and ` 1000) prevailing as on 8th November, 2016 and passage of the Good and Services Tax (GST) and the implementation of the same later on.
India’s GDP grew by 7.2% in the first half of FY 2016-17 on the back of export recovery and implementation of the 7th Pay Commission recommendations which buoyed consumption in the economy. Inflation stood at 3.89% as of March 2017 in line with RBI’s target of 4%.
Currently, the food and groceries (F&G) segment constitutes a majority share of the retail market (67%). F&G will continue to be the largest contributor in the retail market even four years hence with a projected share of 66% in 2020.
16 Indian states contribute approximately 85% of the total retail spend and are expected to continue having a significant share of the total retail consumption.
The state of Maharashtra contributes the highest share of around 19% among these leading states. The state is expected to continue to reflect this steady growth. Gujarat is another state that is expected to continue to reflect steady growth.

Annual Report-2018:

During the financial year 2017-18, India continued to grow on the back of strong economic fundamentals. As per the Ministry of Statistics and Programme Implementation, India’s GDP growth stood at 6.7% for 2017-18.
Owing to the introduction of the e-way bill, GST collections have improved. Monthly GST collections have crossed ` 1 trillion.
Globally, India is seen as one of the key consumer markets with consumption expenditure set to increase to USD 2 trillion by 2020 and will surpass the consumption expenditure of several other developed economies.

Key factors that will continue to drive this momentum are

(i) favorable demographics.
(ii) rapidly rising education levels.
(iii) steady growth of urbanization.
(iv) increasing penetration of mobile technology and internet infrastructure
(v) increasing aspirations and affordability and
(vi) Government’s focus on reforms, skill development, job creation, infrastructure, manufacturing and investments.
Organised retail will be a key beneficiary of this rise in consumption. The industry is expected to grow at a CAGR of ~20% to USD 115 bn by 2020, forming 12% of the total retail market
Food and Grocery will continue to dominate the retail market contributing 66% of the total value in 2020. Apparel & accessories and home & living are the other two key categories which account for 8% and 4% of the total retail market, respectively. Thus, the market opportunity is significantly large for all organized retail operators in India.

The stock market is a risky place for many people who don’t know about it. There are many myths and if you believe in these myths, you will lose a lot of money. Some of these myths are made by people who do not want to invest in the stock market.

Howeapeat.ver many myths are not true and in the stock market only assumption is the history repeats.Rest all things work based on fundamentally and technically.

We always advise investors to do their own research before investing in the market .This will give you more understanding about the market and your investment. Try to make your investing strategy on facts and not on myths.

Now in this post ,I am going to list the 13 biggest myths of the stock market.

1.Investing in the share market is like a gambling.

Most people think investing in the stock market is like gambling. Why they are saying is because they don’t know the basics of share markets.

we need to understand what exactly does it mean to buy stocks. In the stock market the investors buy the share of any company. It means he will be the partner of that company as per his share values.Now he will be ready for getting profit but at the same time also lose when company business declines. For people who invest in the share market means they are doing like a business.

But in the case of Gambling it merely takes money looser and gives to the winner.

Now don’t confuse …

2.Stock market is the place for the rich people.

Most people are not investing in the stock market because they believe that this is only for the rich.

This is completely wrong. This is one of the oldest myths. But the reality of the stock market is you can start with less money from 100 RS. No business where you can start with less money as compared to stock markets.

In case of mutual funds you can start with 5000 RS. Nowadays this amount is not a big deal.

3.Stock that has gone down will go up.

There is no gravitational force to pull down always.

It depends on many factors like business model,fundamentals of stocks ,profits of the company, financial strong holding and sales growth.

If you invest with a fundamental strong company for long terms ,definitely you will get good returns.

4.You Need a Lot of Money to Invest.

This is not true, Even you can start with 100 RS to invest in the share market. They don’t know anything about stock markets that people talked about this myth.

5.Investing is too Risky.

In any work there is a risk. But you have to know how to reduce the effect of risk. Same like in the share market is always a risk. You can minimize that risk to invest for long terms with a fundamentally strong company.

6.Gold is a Classic, Smart Investment.

Today everyone, especially young people, work hard day and night to live a good and comfortable life. If we talk about savings, they will say that they save 20-30 of the monthly income and they are very happy about this. If you save 20-30 percent of your income and are satisfied with it, then we tell you a game. Imagine that you have put all your savings in a boxe. After your retirement.

Now open your box and see what you have got. Also include 6 percent inflation in this entire calculation. You will get some amount as a retirement fund. Now see how you are going to manage your post-retirement expenses. Did you get what you thought? No no You must have understood that such savings are not enough to live a normal life. So where did you make a mistake? How is this big difference in your retirement funds?

You did not consider the inflation rate at the time of saving.In India inflation rate is 6-7%, it means if your money is idle for years means you are losing 6-7 % every year. That’s why investment to counter inflation and create wealth.

Saving:

The difference between your monthly income and expenses is called saving. Add all your expenses like food, luxury, school fees, med fees, drivers, rent, bills, maintenance and everything. What will be left is your savings.

Control your expenses for savings:

Pay attention to your expenses and control them. You can control expenses by limiting credit card usage, paying bills on time and adopting the right resources. Eliminate unnecessary expenses, this will increase your savings. If you invest more than your savings, then you will get good returns going forward.

It is important to track your savings, putting a deadline, or timeline, and a value to your goals. For example, if you are saving for your annual tour, you might want to target some money to save in some months to withdraw at the time of tour.

Investing:

Investing means increasing your saved money to grow, such as investing in fixed deposits, stock markets, mutual funds and other investment options.

Why Investment Needed.

After an age you feel that the money you have is not enough, you may need more money in future. In such a situation, you take the path of investment.

Initially, everyone is nervous about investing, but later when the understanding increases, then the investment process starts to get better. The truth is that if you are so big that you can earn money, then you should also invest money. Investing is not really anything but a process whereby you can use your money.

No person wants to work for a lifetime. This is also a major reason that you should invest your money so that your future can be secured. Whatever your goal is to send children abroad for higher education or to spend your retirement time by the sea, investing properly can help you achieve your financial goals.

Saving is not Investment.

Assume you have a son who wants to become a doctor in the next 15 years. In today’s situation, you need at least 50-60 lakh rupees for medical studies. Therefore, you have to save about 4 lakhs every year to fulfill your son’s gesture. Okay, you will probably save this amount as well. Do you know how much money your son needs in the next 15 years for medical studies?

About 1.0 crore rupees. You can also add 6 percent inflation only then you will be able to calculate the right. Merely saving a certain amount every month or every year will not fulfill your future objective.

Unlike saving, when you invest your money, you do not just keep it safe but try to increase it. Saving money in a bank account cannot be called investing.

I hope that you have got knowledge of all the things related to Saving & Investing.

Wish you best for your Investment Journey.

A bond is a fixed income source that represents a loan made by an investor to a borrower (typically corporate or governmental). Bonds are used by companies, municipalities, states, and sovereign governments to finance projects and operations. Owners of bonds are debtholders, or creditors, of the issuer.

Bonds do not comply with sharia principles,therefore investing in bonds is prohibited.
Bonds are units of corporate debt issued by companies and securitized as tradable assets.
A bond is referred to as a fixed income instrument since bonds traditionally paid a fixed interest rate (coupon) to debtholders. Variable or floating interest rates are also now quite common.
Bond prices are inversely correlated with interest rates: when rates go up, bond prices fall and vice-versa.
Bonds have maturity dates at which point the principal amount must be paid back in full or risk default.

COMMODITY TRADING.

Commodity trading is the buying and selling of a large range of products including oil and gas, metals such as gold and silver and soft commodities like cocoa, coffee, wheat and sugar.

In the principles of shariah for trading of any goods or product it must be physical ownership. It means whatever you buy ,you will be the owner of that goods and must be present in physical form. Then you can sell to others .

But in share market we can not get in physical form that why it is not permissible in Islam.

FOREX:

Forex trading means currency trading , like dollar,Euro,ponds ….and Indian rupees.

This is also not allowed in islam.

I hope you will learn about investment options in India and which one is compliant with shariah principles.

Wish you best for your investment journey.

Option Trading.

Option trading is a contract that allows an investor to buy or sell an underlying instrument like a share, ETF or even index at a predetermined price over a certain period of time. Buying and selling options is done on the options market, which trades contracts based on securities.

Buying an option that allows you to buy shares at a later time is called a “call option,” whereas buying an option that allows you to sell shares at a later time is called a “put option.”

Option trading is less risky because they give less return as compared to equity.

Note – Option trading is not permissible in Islam.

Because options are not the same as stocks because they do not represent ownership in a company.

Future Trading:

Stock Future contract is an agreement to buy or sell a specified quantity of underlying equity shares for a future date at a price agreed upon between the buyer and seller. The contracts have standardized specifications like market lot, expiry day, unit of price quotation, tick size and method of settlement.

Note.

Future trading is not permissible in Islam.

Short Selling.

it is very interesting to understand the process of short selling, because in this concept shares are sold first and bought later, and the reduction in stock price can also make profit.

In general trading we buy first and after sometime sell to book profit. But in case of short selling ,it is sold first and later brought to book the profit or loss.

Note.

Short selling trading is not permissible in islam .because there is no ownership position at the time of selling.

Dividend:

Dividend is a part of a company’s NET PROFIT given by a company to its shareholder.

After making tax and all other types of ADJUSTMENT, the some percentage of NET PROFIT is distributed equally among the shareholder of the company, and the person who holds the shares, Gets the benefit of dividend in the same proportion,

There are two types of Dividend.

INTERIM DIVIDEND – When a company announces a quarterly dividend within the financial year, it is called interim dividend.
FINAL DIVIDEND – When the company announces Annual Dividend at the end of the Financial Year, it is called final dividend.

Note. Dividend is permissible in Islam.

Bonus:

A bonus share is an additional share paid absolutely free to the company’s current shareholders.

For an example, you have purchased 100 shares of the company infosys, and the company announces the issuance of bonus shares in the ratio of 1: 1 (1 bonus for 1 share)

So in this case, you will get 200 shares extra because 100 free shares will be given by the company.

Bonus share always issues in ratio such as 1:1,2:1, 3:1.

Note.

By issuing bonus shares, the “number of shares” increases with the investor, but does not increase the “amount of investment”

I hope you will understand how to make money in the share market, after reading this post.

All the best for your investment journey.

Jazakallah Khair.
