Speaking of the stock market, two experienced fund managers, James Chanos (US) and Sankaran Naren (India), are concerned about high speculation and low margins of safety in their respective stock markets. This means there's a greater risk of losses if the market crashes.

The advice? Invest cautiously. Consider "stock market insurance".

Rahul Shah, Co-head of research at Equitymaster, talks about what exactly is this insurance and how does it work?

BHEL's New Order Win

Bharat Heavy Electricals Ltd (BHEL) announced that it has secured a contract worth Rs 133 bn to establish a 1600 MW thermal power plant in Koderma, Jharkhand. The contract was awarded by the Damodar Valley Corporation (DVC) as part

of the government's initiative to bolster the nation's energy security.

According to a statement from the Ministry of Power, DVC has finalised the tender for the engineering, procurement, and construction (EPC) package of the Koderma Thermal Power Station (2X800MW).

This project, scheduled to be completed by BHEL, is expected to enhance DVC's installed thermal generation capacity to 8140 MW by 2030.

The investment is anticipated to bring substantial economic benefits to the region and its residents.

BHEL is primarily known for its contributions to India's energy and infrastructure sectors, it also plays a vital role in the nation's space program.

BHEL has established itself as a key supplier of space-grade solar panels for ISRO's satellites.

Vodafone Idea's Spectrum Spend

Vodafone Idea's higher-than-expected spending in the just-concluded 5G spectrum auction is set to bolster the telco's networks and stem market share shifts towards stronger rivals Reliance Jio and Bharti Airtel, paving the way for much-delayed tariff hikes this fiscal.

They added that Vi's spectrum spends of about Rs 3,510 crore - almost 12 times its Rs 300 crore earnest money deposit (EMD) - on the heels of a recent fundraising of about Rs 230 bn, suggests the telco is preparing for network rollouts and plans to use its fresh 900 MHz spectrum to enhance 4G experience and rein in customer losses.

Bolstered by the equity funding, Vi bought 30 MHz of airwaves, contributing to 31% of the Rs 113.4 bn auction proceeds.

The JV between UK's Vodafone and India's Aditya Birla Group is targeting Rs 55,000 crore capex spending over the next three years toward 4G expansion and 5G rollouts, vital for its survival and its ability to fight bigger rivals Jio and Airtel, who have already rolled out pan-India 5G networks.

Vodafone Idea is an Aditya Birla Group and Vodafone group partnership. It's among India's leading telecom service providers.

The company provides pan India voice and data services across 2G, 3G, and 4G platforms.

Reliance Jio Hikes Tariffs

The most active plan saw the sharpest hike - 28 days validity with 1.5 GB of data per day. Another popular plan, which came with a validity of 84 days, saw an increase of 20% from Rs 799.

The announcement comes a day after Jio acquired 14.4 MHz of spectrum in the 1800 MHz band, amounting to ?973 crore, in the just-concluded auction.

India's spectrum auction concluded within a few hours of bidding on Day 2 on 26 June, with telecom service providers (TSPs or telcos) buying over Rs 113 bn worth of radio waves in all, which is just 12% of the Rs 962.4 bn minimum value that the government had estimated for the spectrum on offer.

Experts suggest the telecom sector is set to witness an eventful second half of the year, given the impending tariff hikes - Bharti Airtel and Vodafone Idea have yet to announce hikes but will surely follow - and potential 5G monetisation.

The last hike was seen in December 2021, when rates were increased by 20%.
