Tata Docomo makes an impact in its first month. Tata TeleServices TTSL has reported subs net addition of 2.26 mn for the month of July 2009, surpassing its previous highest monthly net addition of 1.26 mn reported in March 2009. This is a reflection of the positive response to the company’s GSM launch in six circles and innovative ‘per-second’ billing .It seems TTSL’s innovation can have a longer-lasting impact on the dynamics of the Indian wireless market than some of the other new launches.But the sector prospects still remains foggy.
TTSL garners 34.3% net adds market share in the six new GSM circles. Strong response to the new GSM service launch in six new circles has helped TTSL increase subs net adds to its best-ever 2.26 mn (15.7% of market net adds) for the month of July 2009, lower than only Bharti and RCOM. The company’s share of net adds in the new circles of launch was 34.3%, an indicator of the strong initial response to its innovative ‘per-second’ billing structure in its GSM launch.
Tata Docomo’s ‘per-second’ billing concept is capable of making a strong and sustainable impact on the industry’s competitive dynamics. While the company’s July 2009 subs net adds corroborate the ‘strong’ part, the ‘sustainablity' will be tested over the coming months.

Nifty Bees is the first Exchange Traded Fund (ETF) in India launched by Benchmark Funds. The NSE Code is NIFTYBEES. Recently I have been receiving many email queries from our regular visitors about whether one can trade, take delivery and so on. This update is to clarify their doubts and add some more details about it.
Nifty Bees is just the replica of the NSE Nifty Index which is currently at 4700. It is 1/10th of the value of the index, quoting at 470. It is as simple as that.
Now the question is, can anyone trade or take delivery of this, just like any other stock?
Definitely one can trade or take delivery just like any other stock. Since Nifty Bees is primarily an investment product, it is wise to take delivery rather than trading intraday.
So now the next question is - when to buy and how much to buy?
Instead of timing the market,like I will buy at 15k or 12 K, it is better to buy in a systematic manner. Systematic Investment Plan - as the name suggets, Invest a certain fixed amount every month and take delivery of the units/shares.
Features of Nifty Bees:
1.You can buy the market as a whole.
2.You can buy 1 unit also.
3.After you have bought , just like stocks it will be available in your DMAT Account.
4.You can sell them any day.
5.You need not worry about buying and selling stocks.
Some not-so-exciting features:
1.You wont get 20%-30% upmoves in a day, like in stocks. (Other than a Blackswan upfreeze ! )
2.Moderate returns.
Going by all these features , Nifty Bees is a good investment product and it is a simple way for small investors to participate in equity markets.
