Deep dives
Valuations and Concerns in Indian Markets
The Indian markets are experiencing a significant upsurge with stocks reaching all-time highs and attracting both foreign and domestic investors. However, market valuations have raised concerns about a possible bubble. Market veterans like Kenneth Andrande and Mr. Prasad have voiced apprehensions about overvaluation and highlighted the importance of aligning investments with growth-oriented business models.
The Impact of Angel Tax on Startups
Angel tax, aimed initially at stopping money laundering, has begun to hinder genuine startups receiving investments at higher valuations. The tax burden often reduces available funds for startups and diverts focus towards tax complexities instead of business growth. Efforts are being made to ease out angel tax to boost domestic venture capital and support startup growth.
SME IPOs and Regulatory Concerns
The SME sector's IPO market has witnessed substantial growth but has also been plagued by price manipulation and fraudulent activities. Regulatory bodies like SEBI have intervened to curb speculation and ensure fair IPO practices, aiming to protect investors and maintain market integrity in the face of rising SME IPO listings.
