Months after Ratan Tata's death, Tata Group makes big move, acquires 117-year-old company for Rs 24000000000; big worry for Mukesh Ambani due to...
(File) In a major move to further strengthen its grip on the luxury jewelry sector, Titan, the watchmaking and fashion products arm of the Titan Group, has acquired a controlling stake in Dubai-based jewellery brand Damas LLC (UAE). According to the details, Titan Holdings International FZCO has acquired a 67% stake in the 117-year-old brand from Mannai Corporation QPSC. How much Titan paid for the company? As per reports, Tata Group-owned Titan acquired Damas Jewellery for 1,038 million dirhams (about Rs 2,357.25 crore), one of the reasons behind the high-priced deal being the global popularity of the Dubai-based brand. Founded in 1907, Damas Jewellery, is a highly-popular jewelry brand in Middle Eastern countries like Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Oman, Kuwait and Bahrain. The brand has 146 stores across the Middle East, and is known for its high-quality gems and jewelry, as well as impeccable craftsmanship. Why Tata Group's deal is a concern for Mukesh Ambani-led Reliance? The Tata Group's landmark deal is expected to bolster its already popular designer jewelry brand Tanishq, which is already launched in several countries outside India, including Middle East and the United States. Titan is looking to build upon the success of Tanishq, and acquire a major share in the global jewellery market, and the Damas acquisition is giant step in that direction. Additionally, the deal could potentially catapult Titan far ahead of its competitors in India, including Mukesh Ambani-owned Reliance Gold, Malabar Gold and Kalyan Jewelers,

How Rakesh Jhunjhunwala turned Rs 5,000 into billions without playing it safe
In today's terms, Rs 5,000 might buy a dinner, a budget smartwatch, or simply remain idle in a savings account. But in 1985, that same amount could change your life. And for a young Rakesh Jhunjhunwala, it did. He borrowed that amount from his brother while still studying to become a chartered accountant with a promise to return it. He had grown up hearing his father talk about stocks. That curiosity stayed. And now, with Rs 5,000 and a few bold ideas, he took his first trade. Over the next few years, he made lakhs. Over the next few decades, he made history. He invested in companies like Titan when nobody was looking. And then held them through crashes, until they made him one of the richest investors in India. This is not just the story of a multibagger. It is the story of how a borrowed sum, mixed with courage, conviction, and no shortcuts, became a portfolio worth Rs 30,000 crore. And why that way of thinking still matters today, especially if you are trying to build wealth the right way. In 1985, with Rs 5,000 in hand, Jhunjhunwala bought his first stock: Tata Tea. The price was around Rs 43. Within three months, it went up to Rs 143. He had more than tripled his money. That one trade gave him two things: confidence that he could understand the market, and a taste of what was possible if he trusted his thinking. He reinvested the profits and began trading more actively. Stocks like Sesa Goa and Tata Steel followed. By 1989, his capital had grown to around Rs 20-25 lakh. That was a huge sum for someone still in his twenties. But even in those early years, he was not chasing random stocks. He was reading balance sheets, attending AGMs, and studying how companies made money. He was a trader, but one who respected business fundamentals. For him, trading was a way to build capital so that he could eventually back strong businesses with confidence. This early phase holds a simple but powerful lesson. Do not wait for the perfect time to start. Begin with what you have. Even if you trade, spend time understanding how businesses work. Learn to trust your process more than anyone else's opinion. Because in the long run, stock prices follow earnings, and earnings come from real companies, not inflated ones. In the 1990s and early 2000s, Jhunjhunwala built capital through smart trading. But over time, it changed. He realised that true wealth did not come from moving in and out of stocks. It came from owning good businesses and letting time do the heavy lifting. He began focusing more on investing, that is, buying companies with strong earnings potential, good promoters, and a clear runway for growth. One of his earliest long-term winners was Lupin, a pharmaceutical company. When most people were ignoring pharma, he spotted the global potential and entered early. Over the years, Lupin grew into one of India's top drug makers, and his bet paid off many times over. Another classic example is CRISIL, the credit ratings agency. When he bought into it, it was a business with little attention from the market players. But Jhunjhunwala understood its importance in India's financial system. He held on as CRISIL expanded and eventually became a respected name in credit ratings. It was later acquired by S&P Global, giving him a strong exit as well. Then came the biggest one: Titan. Around 2002-2003, Titan was struggling. The watch business was slowing, the jewellery segment was still finding its feet, and very few analysts were optimistic. But Jhunjhunwala believed that India's rising middle class would want branded jewellery. He also trusted the Tata group's reputation and the company's ability to manage retail. He bought Titan when the stock was trading around Rs 30. Over the next two decades, he kept adding to his position. By the time Titan crossed Rs 3,000, his holding was worth over Rs 10,000 crore. That one stock became the face of his portfolio and showed the power of conviction and patience. He also backed companies like Escorts, a tractor and equipment manufacturer, long before the rural economy became a market theme, and Rallis India, a Tata Chemicals company that quietly built leadership in agriculture solutions. Each of these decisions followed the same method. He looked at the core business, assessed the promoter's intent, understood the industry, and then stayed invested, sometimes for 10, 15, or even 20 years. This part of his journey teaches a simple but powerful idea: real wealth is built by sitting tight when you believe in a business (or industry thesis). You do not need hundreds of stocks. You need a few good ones and the patience to hold them when others panic. Market crashes are where most investors freeze. Prices fall, portfolios bleed, and panic sets in. But Jhunjhunwala saw these moments differently. For him, crashes were not the time to run. They were the time to think clearly. In 2008, when the global financial crisis hit, Jhunjhunwala's portfolio fell by over 30 per cent. Many of his biggest holdings, including Titan and CRISIL, dropped sharply. But he stayed put, and in some cases, he even bought more. He often believed, 'Bad times are good times for those who can survive them.' He believed that panic selling turns paper losses into permanent losses. As long as the business was sound, he would not touch the sell button. In earlier years, too, such as the 1992 Harshad Mehta scam, the 2000 tech crash, or even the Covid pandemic in 2020, he watched the market fall, but did not allow fear to take over. Instead, he asked one question: Has the company changed, or just the stock price? If the business was still intact, he held on. He was also clear about managing risk. He never took leverage beyond what he could handle. He diversified just enough by holding 15-20 meaningful positions at a time. And he sized his bets based on conviction. For example, Titan was once 35-40 per cent of his entire portfolio. That was more of a conviction backed by years of understanding. And when things went wrong, he exited stocks that broke their thesis. He admitted mistakes publicly. For most retail investors, this is the hardest part. When the screen turns red, it is easy to doubt everything. But Jhunjhunwala's story shows that you do not win by reacting. You win by preparing in advance, staying honest about what you own, and knowing when to do nothing. Rakesh Jhunjhunwala never claimed to know everything. But he was clear about what he wanted from a business. His checklist was simple: He looked for companies that could survive shocks, not just deliver quarterly surprises. He also avoided overly regulated or unpredictable spaces unless he had a deep conviction. At the same time, he did not believe in perfect numbers. He was fine with a few risks as long as the core business was strong. He was not looking for clean balance sheets alone, but he was looking for companies that could grow steadily and reward shareholders. But the biggest part of his filter was belief in India. Jhunjhunwala's entire investing journey was built on one assumption: that India will grow. That its people will consume more, save more, invest more, and demand better products. That belief shaped every decision he made. He was not investing for the next quarter. He was investing for the next decade. And he knew that if India moved forward, the companies riding that wave would multiply in value. This kind of optimism is built on understanding. And for retail investors, it is one of the most useful filters: instead of chasing the best stock this week, ask yourself, what do I believe in for the next 10 years? What do I understand well enough to hold through ups and downs? Jhunjhunwala answered that question clearly. And then he backed that answer with both money and patience.

Anshul Saigal sees re-rating potential in Eternal amid margin surprise
"But generally, we say in the markets that they climb a wall of worry. And if you look around, there's been a fair bit of scepticism built into the markets," says Anshul Saigal, Founder, Saigal Capital. ADVERTISEMENT Eternal – I mean, the stock moved up yesterday as well, and right now it's almost clocking a 10% move. Anshul Saigal: Yes, Eternal and the entire space have surprised positively. What has really happened is that there was an expectation of margin contraction due to higher costs, particularly in the quick commerce segment. But in that very segment, we've seen margin expansion for the company, which suggests that competitive intensity seems to be easing. At least, that's what the market is interpreting based on the results. And if that's the case, given the growth – which is close to 130% – it looks like the stock has room for re-rating. It has been meaningfully de-rated in recent times, not just this stock but the entire space. Of course, there's another large player whose results are awaited, so we'll have to wait and see. But the market is already reading into that company's likely performance based on Eternal's results. That's the way to look at this space. What's your take on the overall market sentiment? Apart from a few earnings candidates that have seen adverse reactions, markets overall seem steady and are finding their footing again around the 25,000 to 25,200 mark. Where do you see the market heading from here, considering that surprises like Eternal's are one-offs? What's the broader sentiment this earnings season? Anshul Saigal: The earnings season has been quite mixed. If you look at banking, Axis delivered weak results, but ICICI reported strong numbers. Many PSU banks and private banks have shared optimistic forward-looking commentary. So yes, the results are mixed. Even in the consumer durables segment – while cables and wires have done well, electrical consumer durable (ECD) companies haven't performed as strongly. So, the market reaction has been varied. But generally, we say in the markets that they climb a wall of worry. And if you look around, there's been a fair bit of scepticism built into the markets. Until recently, mutual funds were holding 7% to 8% cash, which has now come down as they've started investing, seeing the market trend. Even when you talk to market participants, there's a sense of caution. That tells you valuations aren't overextended — there's a fair amount of doubt already priced in. And that, combined with reasonably strong earnings, indicates strength in the markets. How do you view Titan's expansion into the GCC market? Anshul Saigal: That region has a large Indian population, and most Indians are already familiar with Titan and Tanishq as brands. Damas is also a prominent name in that region. The combination of the two should work well and expand the market base for the company. That said, Titan trades at premium valuations, so there may not be much room for error in this name. The company would have to demonstrate consistent growth for the upside to play out. But purely as an academic assessment, the combination seems quite reasonable. ADVERTISEMENT Do you think that after ICICI Bank and HDFC Bank's results, there's now a clearer distinction in how smaller banks will perform? Are we moving towards a scenario where the large banks will only get larger? Anshul Saigal: Broadly, what you're saying is correct – the large are going to get larger. Take HDFC Bank for example – at a 15% annual growth rate, they add the size of a smaller bank to their balance sheet every year. They're already big, and their scale ensures they'll continue expanding. ADVERTISEMENT However, some of the smaller banks that operate in specific niches can still do reasonably well. Either because the large banks don't compete in those niches or because these smaller banks have better reach in those segments. So, it's not like they'll be wiped out. Some strong players will continue to emerge among smaller banks, while others might struggle. But yes, the larger banks will capture a substantial share of the market going forward – that much is clear.
