The Morning Brief The Economic Times

In recent times, Indian holders of derivatives have faced significant financial losses, a concern that has caught the attention of the government and Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman. This situation intriguingly intersects with the Wall Street-based hedge fund Jane Street Group, which is currently embroiled in lawsuits involving two of its employees and rival Millennium Management Global Investment.

 

In this episode of The Morning Brief from the Economic Times, hosts Anirban Chowdhury and Nikhil Agarwal delve into three critical questions: Why are small options traders losing money in India? Are larger financial players profiting at their expense? And how is the practice of daily expiry contributing to the challenges faced by small investors? Join us as we unpack these complex issues with Rahul Sharma, Head of Technical & Derivative Research, JM Financial Services Ltd & Chetan Panchamia, Index Options Expert & Trader.

Budget airline IndiGo is shaking things up! It just ordered a bunch of giant Airbus A350 planes, which translates to things the LCC has never offered before: long haul international flights and a semi premium product. This could be a game changer for Indian aviation, given it controls more than 60% of the market. The new planes are expensive to own and fly, competition is fierce, and it'll take time to turn a profit on those long trips. Can IndiGo make it work? Anirban Chowdhury asks Kapil Kaul, CEO of consultancy firm CAPA India, and ET’s aviator-in-chief Arindam Majumder in the latest episode of The Morning Brief podcast. Tune in!
