Value: Intrinsic or Subjective

(Click here for old post on value investing)Recently, a young student was discussing business valuation with me. The young fellow was quite intrigued by the business valuation models particularly DCF. He asked me about my preferred model for valuation and I told him that in my view these valuation models are good for having a theoretical viewpoint and conceptual framework but these are very primitive methods and not practical most of the time in the real world. So we need much better valuation theory/methods which can stand on its feet during the evaluation process.I know many hardcore Value investing followers…

Insurance and Reinsurance sector- Truth is Beyond Time and Space

Stocks covered in this study: GIC RE and Cholamandalam financial holdings LtdDear all, this study is mainly about the dynamics and factors affecting and governing the growth of insurance sector and not about any particular insurance stock. I have tried to list out the factors affecting the functioning and growth of this one of the most complex sector. But insurance sector (General insurance in particular) is going to see the huge growth for next 10-15 years in India and I feel this is going to be one of the sectors to produce future multibaggers. The growth and performance we have…

NIIT Ltd- Disruption in Training

I am just putting a short note on NIIT as I think it may have a run very soon. So due to lack of time I am just touching some of the most relevant points and will share the detailed study at some other time. First time, I advised NIIT at this blog in 2015 at 39 (Click here) and now at 120 I think it is still a great buy. Off late, i am buying it regularly from 80 levels and picked last week at 100. People still consider NIIT as an IT education firm offering IT courses and…

Max Healthcare Institute Ltd- Listing Price Calculation

Dear All, today my plan was to calculate the expected value of MHIL for tomorrow's listing. But got trapped in some work in the evening and could only devote some half an hour on this. (click here for earlier post on Max group stocks) Earlier, deal in Sep-2018 valued both erstwhile MHIL and Radiant at 7242 cr but they have vastly improved their performance after that period...some 50%-60% improvement in EBITDA levels due to synergy and other cost cutting measures. Also there is some 10 days impact on EBITDA levels due to covid lockdown in Mar-2020. Their combined EBITDA in…

Healthcare Global Enterprises Ltd.- Data is God- Updates

In my last post on Healthcare Global enterprise (Click here) i forgot to cover the valuation exercise of Strand life sciences in the final chapter on Financial analysis of HCG. One reader pointed this out in the comment section. So i have updated this aspect in that article. Further some readers have put the query as to why we assign high valuation multiples to book value for some stocks and not for others. So i have also added a short note on this along with some other changes in that chapter. So i am reproducing the updated chapter here (updates…
