From being one of the biggest IPOs to tumbling drastically, Paytm's journey so far has been nothing but eventful. A year has passed since its listing, and the stock is down 65% since then and ~70% from its peak. Find out the reasons behind the brutal dip in this edition Read. ⬇️




Paytm tumbling down 🎢











15th November 2022 marked the expiry of Paytm's lock-in period. It is not unusual for a company's shares to fall when an IPO's lock-in period expires and shares are freed up to trade in the open market. ~86% of Paytm’s outstanding shares were in the lock-in period. The stock fell 4% primarily due to the exit of the pre-IPO investors. On the next day, SoftBank sold 4.5% of its stake in Paytm in a block sale. These two developments brutally dragged the stock 10%!

These two developments brutally dragged the stock 10%! 😞

While some analysts also attributed the fall to the disappointing quarterly results and concerns about high valuation, the most recent development that battered the stock is a report by Macquarie. It stated that Reliance's Jio Financial Services (JFS) could threaten existing players like Paytm and Bajaj Finance. JFS will bring with it a competitive advantage of a strong network of 20m and consumers, an AAA credit rating of Reliance that will help attract funding at low costs, and an already available NBFC license. 😮

News about the National Payments Corporation of India's talks with the RBI about implementing a limit on player volume to 30% also hurt investor sentiment. If implemented, users may not be able to make unlimited payments through UPI apps exceeding the limit. 😶

In their first Annual General Meeting, CEO Vijay Shekhar Sharma assured shareholders that the company is on its way to becoming profitable by September 2023. Do you think Paytm can manage a turnaround that will help regain glory? ⏳

May the departed soul rest in eternal peace and may Prabhu Mahaveer give strength to his family members and loved ones. Om Shanti The man who led many young minds to start up the trading journey!!

  SIP in Mutual Funds vs SIP in stocks: Which is better for you? Following this route, the investors would not need to time the market, invest through a regulated approach and protect themselves during volatile times while earning better returns. The information of rising COVID cases on the other hand brings the stock market downhill. In such an erratic mode of market conditions, doing a SIP is highly recommended. Gone are those days when roti, kapda and makaan were the basic requirements of human life. With major advancements in the 21st century, the internet and SIP (Systematic Investment Plan) have got into this new list of bare essentials. We often hear the Millenials promoting “SIP it, shut it, and forget it” rather than fostering “Buy low and sell high”. Because in their belief, timing the market is way too complicated, and in most cases, it never works. Volatility in recent months has tested the patience of the market participants. The pandemic was the major cause behind thi...
