And I hope, with this the 25 year old mission is accomplished 😂
Nithin Kamath@Nithin0dha

I've known @karthikrangappa for almost 30 years. My first interaction was me trying to sell him a Reliance Money demat account as a sub-broker. 😄 In 2014, he was teaching markets on the side while figuring out his next thing. I asked if he wanted to build a proper financial education platform at Zerodha. He said yes on the spot. That's how Varsity started. 12 years, millions of readers. No paywall, no ads, no signups, no spam. He still personally replies to reader questions in the comments. In between, he built Varsity Live, Varsity Junior, Rupee Tales for kids, and more. And now he's turned Varsity's first module into a book, A Beginner's Guide to the Indian Stock Market. Bodybuilder, photographer, teacher, author, coder. What isn't he doing. 😄 Btw, we keep joking with him, is all this education obsession really just a 25-year project to fix his image with his father-in-law, who happens to be a legendary educator himself? 😄

@mohitmehra @Nithin0dha Nobody can! The system is not designed to traxk daily sips with same amount via deemat. Atleast @RBI thought of providing UTR on every emandate debit. @SEBI_India Seriously nobody ever thought of mapping 1:1 debits: sips: bse transaction in deemat? 0dha MF ppl des not knw eCAS

RBI released a consolidated framework on eMandates yesterday. One of the points it covers is the zero-levy charge for using these mandates with your bank. Although this is great, there may still be a charge if your mandate transaction fails due to insufficient funds. Seems fair, it's like a cheque bounce charge that makes sure you maintain funds or pause your mandate. But unlike in a cheque deposit transaction, the effort and costs to a bank are negligible for eMandates. Also, if you use UPI autopay you don't pay any penalty for a bounce. UPI mandates are pretty much the same but with a lower max limit i.e. 1 lakh per day for your mutual fund SIPs compared to a 1 crore using NACH eMandates. Maybe banks should remove this penalty arbitrage between UPI and NACH. P.S. I don't mean banks should introduce a charge for UPI mandates.

⚠️ Your SIF fund showed 11% TER on April 6. Before Apr 1, this was hidden. Now SEBI forces funds to show brokerage + trading costs in daily TER. One heavy trading day spiked costs from 0.62% → 11.17% (same fund, 3 days apart). This is a single-day figure — not your annual cost. So don't read it that way. But it tells you something important: High-churn funds are expensive. You just couldn't see it before. Story by @VedantVichare99 thefynprint.com/YX1buZfgy

On popular demand, the second fund from Altiva is here. After all the love for Hybrid Long Short which focuses on tax efficient yield, we try to take the category of PMS... and build something more agile and efficient. A unique way to think about the exTop 100 category, by bringing our mid and small cap capabilities to the game. Launching next month. Read about it here.
Niranjan Avasthi@avasthiniranjan

The real wealth in the last decade wasn’t created in large caps… it came from Mid & Small caps (SMIDs) That’s where growth is faster. That’s where future multibaggers emerge. That’s where alpha lives. Investors have used PMS to capture this opportunity, but with trade-offs - tax inefficiency, high costs and gap between model and actual portfolio returns. Mutual funds solve for tax efficiency, but operate within defined universe. Min 65% mid/smallcap exposure criteria. So, we thought of combining SMID alpha with MF-like efficiency and professional management. So.. here we are. Altiva Equity Ex-Top 100 Long-Short Fund (SIF) A SMIDCap portfolio designed to generate alpha in a more tax and cost-efficient way vs PMS and AIFs. Why SMIDs? - High growth, high alpha potential - Breeding ground for future multi-baggers - Recent corrections = reasonable valuations ti enter - Large universe (stocks 101-750) having unexplored opportunities What makes this SIF different: - 35–45 high-conviction stocks - 90–100% exposure to SMIDs - 0–10% flexibility to have derivatives/cash/large caps to manage risk & alpha - Positioned between Mutual Funds and PMS. Best of both worlds. - Aimed to have Midcap+ risk-return profile Backed by 15+ years of SMID investing experience, and strong track record in Midcap and Smallcap Funds. @iRadhikaGupta @EdelweissMF

Noida: An old and rusted height restriction barrier outside the Botanical Garden metro station collapsed. The officials have since then placed it on the road parallel to the central verge. This damaged barrier needs to be replaced with new one for safety of commuters. @noida_authority

UPDATE: After viral video, Deptt worked over weekend & found the file, only to discover that no work had been done. The frustrated complainant has published another video seeking accountability from that lady official for misleading him and wasting an year of time, sitting on his file. Just another day in the baburaaj in India!

ICICI bank is now up 13% from 30th march lows of 1205 Q4 earnings better than expectations Growth seen across verticals - rural, retail and business banking Strong asset quality Bank says no concerns on loan portfolio due to supply chain hit on account of west asia war Lets also remember the stock has done nothing for investors in the last one year stock is down 3% in one year moving in a very tight range of 1350-1450 after strong earnings, would be interesting to see if it breaks out of this year long range.

GIFT City's active global funds are off to a rough start — and the data is hard to ignore. 🧵 1/ Every single active fund in GIFT is negative over the last 6 months. DSP Global Equity: -12.4%. PPFAS PMS Global Strategy: -5.6%. Marcellus GCP: -5.5%. Meanwhile, ACWI TRI was +0.7%. That's not a small miss. That's a different direction entirely. 2/ The "Since Inception" picture isn't prettier. DSP is -12.5% since Sept 2025. PPFAS is -2.6% since Aug 2025. The only funds with positive since-inception returns (Marcellus at 18.6%, Philip Int. at 7.7%) have multi-year head starts — and even they lagged ACWI TRI over 1 year. 3/ On a 1-year basis, Marcellus returned 8.9% vs ACWI TRI's 20.7%. Philip Int. Pioneer returned 21.9% — one of the few bright spots. Mirae? -11.1% vs benchmark's +20.7%. Brutal. 4/ Now let's talk tax. GIFT funds are structured as Category III AIFs. They pay tax at the fund level — ~42% STCG & 14.95% LTCG vs slab rate or 12.5% for an individual. 5/ If you instead bought a UCITS ETF (say, an Ireland-domiciled S&P 500 or ACWI fund) directly via the LRS route, capital gains tax kicks in only when YOU sell — and at your applicable slab rate or 12.5% for long-term. The fund itself pays zero Indian tax. 6/ So with GIFT active funds you get: ❌ Active underperformance vs benchmark ❌ Possible cash drag ❌ Fund-level tax leakage you can't control 7/ With a direct UCITS ETF investment: ✅ Near-zero tracking error to the index ✅ No fund-level tax — you control timing ✅ Lower cost, higher transparency 8/ The case for passive international investing has never been clearer. If GIFT funds can't beat ACWI TRI in a falling market (when stock-picking supposedly shines), when exactly will they? Story by @PosteAnil thefynprint.com/GBlfw8FDX

A Gmail ID was used to impersonate a Central PSU. Nobody questioned it. And ₹20,000 crore in govt tenders got rigged. Let me tell you the story of India's most absurd corruption case. Jal Jeevan Mission, PM Modi's flagship scheme to give tap water to every rural home. Rajasthan alone got ₹10,180 crore from the Centre in FY22 and ₹13,328 crore in FY23. Almost 23% of the entire national JJM budget went to one state. Two tubewell companies wanted these tenders. Problem? They had zero experience. Solution? They forged experience certificates of IRCON, a Railways PSU. Fake letterheads, fictitious officer names. And for verification, they created a Gmail ID pretending to be IRCON officials. A Central govt PSU under Ministry of Railways. Replying from @ gmail. com. Not .gov.in. Not .nic.in. Gmail. And nobody in the entire PHED department found this suspicious. Not one officer. Combined, these two firms filed 230+ tenders using these forged documents. But the real Bollywood moment? PHED sent an engineer to Kerala to "physically verify" IRCON's work. The contractors and a forger reached Kochi ONE DAY before him. Checked into Hotel Woodlark. The forger was introduced to the engineer as "Vijay Shankar, CEO, IRCON International." Random photos of pumphouses were submitted as proof. The contractor left his personal phone in Jaipur and used an employee's SIM card to avoid GPS tracking. The engineer came back and submitted a "positive verification report." Now here's the part that makes your blood boil. In June 2023, IRCON's own Vigilance Department wrote DIRECTLY to the Addl Chief Secretary Subodh Agarwal — "These certificates are fake and fabricated." What happened? The warning emails were deleted. Compliant engineers were handpicked to give false positive reports. Three separate legal notices were sent to the department. All ignored. But the scam wasn't just about fake certificates. That was just ₹960 crore. The bigger game was ₹20,000 crore. Agarwal introduced a rule — "Site Visit Certificates" mandatory for tenders above ₹50 crore. Sounds like transparency, right? It actually exposed which companies were bidding BEFORE tender opening. Once everyone knows who else is bidding, you form cartels. You fix prices. Tender premiums were inflated 30-40% across the board. The numbers: ₹20,000 crore in tenders rigged 30-40% inflated premiums, 4% bribery formula ₹47 crore seized by ED so far — 0.2% of the scam The fraud ran from 2021 to 2023 under the Congress govt in Rajasthan. IRCON warned in 2023. CBI filed an FIR in 2024. ED arrested the minister in 2025. Agarwal was finally caught this week — after being on the run for 2 months, evading 40+ ACB teams across 100 locations in 21 cities. JJM 2.0 just got approved. Budget: ₹8.69 lakh crore. The real question — has the system that enabled this actually changed? Or are we just funding the next scam on a bigger scale

It’s true that many bureaucrats have stopped making reels, and several even made their social media private due to fake certificate campaign by us . Even in August 2024 , LBSNAA restricted camera usage on campus after that campaign. But let me be clear, brother we have no intention of tarnishing the image of honest and hardworking officers. We respect them. Our concern is only with the dishonest and ‘kamchor’ ones.

The fear of @khurpenchh team is real amongst the Civil servants I was having a conversation with my best friend who got the IRS last year and is currently undergoing training. He told me - people have kept their IGs private & they only accept request after confirmation over call
