Look at the horoscope of India (15th August 1947, 12:00 AM, New Delhi) and one can see India has Rahu in the Antecedent with Mars in the second house (House of wealth) and Mercury which rules the communication sector in house number 3, India has a Kaal Sarp yog in its horoscope and five very strong planets in the third house (Moon, Sun, Mercury, Saturn and Venus). Investing in Inida is any day a profitable situation due to the combination of Moon and Sun (New Moon Day Yoga)… refer to my blog that clearly shows that markets are up on New Moon Days.
India is currently going thru the mahadasha of Sun and the Antardasha of Saturn will continue till end of June 2013. Some movement in the telecom industry can be seen between 30th June 2013 and 6th May 2014; one of the strategies I follow is keep nibbling stocks like R-Com, IDEA, and Bharti every week or every month as a SIP till mid-2013 and hold them tight for some time.
One can try and book profits during 2014 but if you are a very long term investor continue SIP in the telecom sector till 2015 and hold it for coming 15 – 20 years.
Clearly this is one sector that goes hand in hand with the IT Industry. India has planet Rahu in the antecedent which is a clear benefic per my understanding that will help the internet era, a second generation cycle will be seen with the social media revolution which will take a form of a big giant with the help of planet Neptune dominating the social media space… don’t be surprised to see mom preparing breakfast for her kid looking at this status on Facebook on what he/she will like to eat.
What’s happening today in the telecom sector is
- Profits are falling
- Companies licenses been cancelled
- Sector is under litigation in India.
- Huge debt with no signs of profitability.
This is because the current aspect of Saturn on Mercury and the dasha India is going thru is not favoring the telecom sector.
We may not be interested on why is this happening but more interested on when this sector will come out of this situation.
Clearly 2014 and onwards one can see real good gains if starting a Systemic investing strategy in the telecom space for long term benefits. None the less short term gains and bouce back in the stock prices can be seen when of Mercury will be moving into Aries sign shortly but again the prices may correct due to Mercury which will sit in House of expenditure and losses in 12th house. This can be because of huge expenditure expected with 4G license which is due in next few of months.
Mercury will be moving to the house it was at the time of Indias independence in late qarter of the year situation may improve. Jupiter, lord of House of gains and Income will move to Taurus which will provide lot of relief and impact primarily due to the banking norms that can ease and the interest on debt can be seen coming low. Sun and Mars also will be favorable in early 2013 which will help in reducing some policy pressure and get Government support to this sector. However Saturn will remain dominant and pull down the sector quite often when the aspects of benefic planets is week till May 2014.
Two big planets will move on, Saturn out of Libra and at the same time Jupiter will move into Gemini which will propel the sector to new heights.
One can start accumulating now and wait for the up move to happen from 2014 if you don’t have enough cash, and if you are sitting on good cash one can buy around May – June 2014 and hold for a long term (8 – 10 years) for real good multifold benefits.
