Thursday 27 November 2014
Note - I have recommend this stock 3-4 weeks back. Here is the full Analysis. 




The BJP-led NDA Government seems to be serious about encouraging private investment in defence. Undoubtedly, the move to allow FDI in the defence is aimed at boosting self-reliance in defence production, encouraging more private sector manufacturers to enter the sector, cutting expensive imports, bringing more clarity on guidelines and curbing corruption.
