Speaking of stock markets, when it comes to famous turnarounds of the last one year, no discussion can be complete without Suzlon Energy.

The stock was arguably on the top of the list of every market pundit.

For perspective, the stock is up a whopping 312% in the last one year, far outperforming the close to 40% returns earned by the BSE Small Cap index.

By the way, it is up a huge 20x from its March 2020 lows. Talk of life changing investments!

However, there is a risk to investing in a stock like Suzlon Energy and ignoring this risk could prove fatal over the long run.

Co-head of research, Rahul Shah, in his latest video talks about what exactly is this risk and how should one minimise it.

Hero MotoCorp registers 25% growth in November

Hero MotoCorp sold 4,91,050 units in November 2023. The company sold 4,76,286 two-wheelers in the domestic market, as compared to selling 3,79,839 units in November 2022, registering a YoY growth of 25%.

The company registered a double-digit growth of 26% over the corresponding month of the previous fiscal when it sold 390,932 units in November 2022.

Hero MotoCorp expects the demand to be on a healthy trajectory in the coming months on account of favourable economic indicators, including the ongoing marriage season and positive consumer sentiments.

In November 2023, Hero MotoCorp made a splash at the EICMA Motor Show in Milan, announcing a slew of strategic initiatives, including extensive growth plans to expand its footprint in electric mobility, enter new ICE vehicle categories and foray into Europe.

The company also recorded its highest-ever festive sales, clocking more than 14 lakh (1.4 million) units in retail sales during the 32-day festive period - between the first day of the Navratras and Bhai Dooj - this year.

In the past month, the stock is up around 23%.

GAIL Sues SEFE in LNG Deal Dispute

India's largest gas firm GAIL (India), on Friday, said the company has filed an arbitration case against SEFE Marketing & Trading Singapore Pte (formerly Gazprom Marketing and Trading Singapore Pte Ltd) in the London Court of International Arbitration.

The claims, filed on 30 November 2023, amount to US$ 1.8 bn and encompass issues related to the non-supply of LNG cargoes to GAIL under a long-term contract.

GAIL, in 2012, signed a 20-year deal to buy 2.85 million tonnes per annum (MTPA) of liquefied natural gas (LNG) with Russian energy giant Gazprom.

Supplies started in 2018, and the entire volume was to reach in 2023.

The deal was signed with Gazprom Marketing and Singapore (GMTS), which at the time was a unit of Gazprom Germania, now SEFE. But in early April last year, Gazprom gave up the ownership of the German unit without giving a reason and placed parts of it under Russian sanctions.

This followed the West slapping sanctions on Russia for its 24 February invasion of Ukraine. It invoked a force majeure and stopped supplies to India from June 2022.

The transition from grey to green hydrogen is happening at a faster pace than expected. GAIL is contributing to this transition, making it among India's Top Green Hydrogen Stocks.
