Mutual Fund exposure to software stocks hits all-time high in July

Mutual Fund managers seem to be bullish on software shares as they raised their allocation in the sector to an all time-high of over Rs 38,000 crore in July due to depreciation in rupee.

In comparison, equity fund managers deployment in software stocks stood at Rs 27,596 crore in July last year.

Industry experts said that fund managers raised their allocation to software stocks due to declining rupee against the US dollar.

Like exporters, IT companies earn majority of their revenue in dollars. Depreciating rupee means exporters get more rupee per US dollar.

Rupee falls to 5-month low, bond yields continue to rise On Wednesday, the rupee ended at 61.5/dollar, a five-month low, compared with its previous close of 60.85/dollar, owing to increased demand for dollars after data showed the US was on a recovery path. There is concern the US might resort to raising interest rates sooner than expected, due to which emerging markets such as India will see outflows. The rupee opened at 61.04/dollar and, during intra-day trade, touched a low of 61.53/dollar. On March 5, it had closed at 61.76 a dollar. Since the beginning of this financial year, the currency has depreciated three per cent. "On Wednesday, the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) intervened through state-run banks, but in small volumes. There was not much dollar supply," said Sandeep Gonsalves, forex consultant and dealer, Mecklai & Mecklai. RBI's foreign exchange reserves are only $23 million short of its all-time high of $320.79 billion, recorded on September

Lessons from the Satyam scam

Lessons from the Satyam scam The signs of the Satyam scam should have come almost three weeks before when Ramalinga Raju proposed to buy a controlling stake in sister concern Maytas for around Rs 7,000 crore. When the institutional investors opposed vehemently, the company decided to go against it. Three weeks later on January 7, Raju confessed to 'cooking' Satyam's books. Within the next few days, the share price crashed to almost Rs 10 causing losses of over Rs 5,000 crore to around 300,000 investors. In the past five years, a number of companies have been suspended or fallen into bad times with Pyramid Saimira, Deccan Chronicle and Kingfisher Airlines being some of the more prominent examples. Usually, in such situations, individual investors get caught on the wrong side even if they have invested in such stocks through mutual funds. Sample this: When Satyam declared that they are withdrawing the proposal to buy the controlling stake in Maytas, many brokerage
