Be warned that the bear is in town and anything is possible including Equity bowing to forces of gravity! 30/- is a buy.

Quality bank and management.

How will JM & team react then deal with the lower rates for the SMEs & micro-loans?
Micro-loans via Equitel is a growing business for Equity and needs to be handled judiciously. It's a gateway for folks to borrow more from Equity as they grow.

Equitel has been a favourite for me in sorting out small time deals that emerge from time to time and I did not mind the interest rate of 2% per month.I hope it continues..

Don't worry. The President will be monitoring your situation. Unfortunately, the monitoring might go on till after the elections.
Never count on making a good sale. Have the purchase price be so attractive that even a mediocre sale gives good returns.

Laughing out loudly Laughing out loudly Laughing out loudly And some banks may reduce unsecured lending at CBR + 4%. Why take the risk? Lend the money to GoK at 11% or higher. 10yr T-Bonds yield 15%.
