Well, apart from being highly successful in their own spheres – business and show biz – they’ve also recently bought luxury homes in the Maximum City. While billionaire Damani spent a whopping ₹1,238 crore for a property at Oberoi Three Sixty West in Worli, Bhat splurged ₹37.8 crore for an address at Aerial View CHSL in Bandra West. Apart from these two, JP Taparia and family who own Famy Care Group, Dubai businessman Jay Mahtani and fashion designer Sandeep Khosla are a few of the big names that have snapped up luxury homes this year. What's more? This tribe, which spends mega bucks for large, spacious homes with spectacular views, is only growing, says a report by Sotheby’s International Realty and CRE Matrix. Luxury homes are defined as those that cost over ₹10 crore and the first half of 2023 has seen sales of a whopping ₹11,400 crore in this segment. “Mumbai had been witnessing around ₹5,300 crore of luxury sales every half year, since 2018. In H1 2023, this number more than doubled to ₹11,400 crore, surpassing even the annual sales of 2018 – 2020,” says Sotheby’s. Amit Goyal, MD India at Sotheby’s International Realty believes that this indicates that real estate has made a meaningful comeback to ultra high-networth individuals’ portfolios. “With wealth creation in India growing at a fast pace, and the country’s wealthiest city Mumbai set to enter the list of top 20 cities with the most number of millionaires by 2023, we believe there’s an inherent strength in Mumbai’s luxury housing market which should continue in the future,” said Goyal. Size does matter Sales of homes that cost around ₹10-20 crore made up for around 71% of sales in the luxury segment, but there has been good traction in homes that cost ₹40-70 crore too, as per the report. Nine homes that cost over ₹70 crore were sold in the first half of the year, while 10 such sold in all of 2022, the report says. In the world of luxe, the size of homes is also growing, as per the report. Most of the luxury homes sold were in the 1,000-2,000 square feet range while the preference for 4,000-8,000 square feet homes tripled in the first half of 2023 as compared to the same period in 2018. “The Richie Rich is now eyeing larger homes than ever before with a clear preference for ocean views, higher floors and amenities galore,” says Abhishek Kiran Gupta, co-founder &amp; CEO, CRE Matrix &amp; IndexTap.

Gold has turned into a more bankable asset and its prices going up as several American banks are going down, say experts. On Monday, the yellow metal shone brighter at the markets with gold at the MCX crossing the Rs 60,000 mark. "Gold prices have risen almost 7-8 per cent in the past month. The rally in the yellow metal is primarily due to the banking crisis in the west. The liquidity infused by the central banks and the expectations of lower to no rate hikes is pushing gold prices up. Gold is a safe haven, historically it has gained in periods of uncertainty," <keyword id="1800107" type="General" weightage="80" keywordseo="colin-shah" source="Orion">Colin Shah</keyword>, MD, <keyword id="15722229" type="General" weightage="80" keywordseo="kama-jewelry" source="Orion">Kama Jewelry</keyword>, said. Gold prices hitting a fresh high is a sign of slower economic growth and lower interest rates with ample liquidity to help the system steer of the current situation. According to Shah, the current situation globally may take some time to clear out. Globally, central banks have been adding gold reserves. "We expect gold to gain further and touch new highs in the next few months. Domestically, it is expected to trade in the range of Rs 61,000-62,000/10gm. Internationally, it may scale levels of $2,050-2100/oz," he added. <keyword id="377165" type="General" weightage="80" keywordseo="navneet-damani" source="Orion">Navneet Damani</keyword>, Senior VP, Commodity Research at Motilal Oswal Financial Services, said: "Bullions continue surge, with gold on domestic front hitting a new lifetime high of over Rs 60,000, as a wave of banking crises shook global markets and put bullion on track for its biggest weekly rise in three years, while bets solidified for a less aggressive <keyword id="45672" type="General" weightage="80" keywordseo="fed" source="Orion">Fed</keyword> in its fight against inflation. "The collapse of Silicon Valley Bank in the US has highlighted banks' vulnerabilities to sharply higher rates, while a rout in Credit Suisse shares has added to the market turmoil. On other hand, after ECB announced a 50bps rate hike last week, all eyes are now on Fed's policy meeting scheduled later this week. "Fed is expected to raise rates by 25bps, however probability for a pause is increasing sharply supporting the move in safe haven assets. Over the weekend, there were quite a updates regarding the US banking concerns which slightly weighed on the safe haven assets. UBS agreed to buy 167-year-old Credit Suisse for $3.23 billion and assume up to $5.4 billion in losses in a deal backed by a massive Swiss guarantee and expected to close by the end of 2023. Meanwhile, major central banks including Fed, ECB, BOJ, BOE announced a co-ordinated central bank action to enhance liquidity via USD-Swap line. These updates are likely to keep the volatility high." "Broader trend on COMEX could be in the range of $1985- 2015 and on domestic front prices could hover in the range of Rs 59,80060,600 could be expected," <keyword id="630853" type="General" weightage="80" keywordseo="damani" source="Orion">Damani</keyword> added.

Gold is bankable, shines more than some western banks say experts

A roller-coaster ride may have fewer ups and downs than what the gold market has had in 2022, industry experts said while looking back at the year that is set to end soon. "A roller-coaster ride has less ups and downs than what the bullion market had in the year 2022. Both the metals, <keyword id="508294" type="General" weightage="100" keywordseo="gold-and-silver" source="Orion">Gold and Silver</keyword>, kept the market participants on edge," <keyword id="377165" type="General" weightage="50" keywordseo="navneet-damani" source="Orion">Navneet Damani</keyword>, Senior Vice-President of Currency &amp; Commodity, Motilal Oswal Financial Services, said. According to <keyword id="630853" type="General" weightage="80" keywordseo="damani" source="Orion">Damani</keyword>, the Comex Gold has made a high of about $1,935 and a low of about $1,630, while silver on other hand made a high of about $25 and a low of about $18. There are a few factors which triggered volatility in the market like, a move in the Dollar Index and yields, aggressive monetary policy stance from major central banks, rising inflationary concern and geo-political tension, which led to this volatility. Concurring with him are Chirag Mehta, CIO and Ghazal Jain, Fund Manager- Alternative Investments, <keyword id="594214" type="General" weightage="80" keywordseo="quantum-amc" source="Orion">Quantum AMC</keyword> who said in a report: "Gold prices approached an all-time high of around $2,070 in March on the back of risk aversion triggered by the Russia-Ukraine war. But later, as the geopolitical risk premium waned coupled with the Federal Reserve's tightening spree to combat sky-high inflation, prices faced heavy downside pressure." Pointing out the repo rate hikes by the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) and the <keyword id="6356435" type="General" weightage="50" keywordseo="us-federal-reserve" source="Orion">US Federal Reserve</keyword>, the two experts said the action resulted in the flight of money from risky assets to the US dollar as the real interest rates (indicated by US 10Y Treasury Inflation Protected Securities) turned positive for the first time in two years in May 2022. "This led to a sell-off in gold taking prices down to a two-and-a-half-year low of $1,614. However, as inflation started to moderate sequentially in Q4 2022, investors started anticipating a less aggressive <keyword id="45672" type="General" weightage="80" keywordseo="fed" source="Orion">Fed</keyword> in 2023, and the dollar came under pressure helping gold prices to scale back up," the Quantum AMC report said. "Stepping into 2023, we can't be sure if this reaction is justified given that inflation in the US remains well above the Fed's two per cent target, and the Fed has made it clear that while the pace of rate hikes could slow down from here on, but the slower pace does not mean lower rates which the markets had started anticipating," the Quantum AMC officials said. According to the Quantum AMC report, there can be another 50-75 basis points hike in the first half of 2023 by the US Fed which in turn could result in bouts of volatility in both risk assets and gold as real rates rise in an environment of cooling inflation and higher nominal rates. Damani said the gold's domestic story is quite different, as even after such macro happenings there was not a great on the MCX, amidst factors like sharp depreciation in the rupee coupled with a hike in basic customs duty by five per cent on gold. He said 2022 has definitely given a boost in market participants' confidence as to gold and silver. Along with Russia-Ukraine tensions, inflationary concerns and the Covid scare in China, market participants will also carry the baggage regarding slower global growth into the next year, Damani said. "Going ahead, market participants will keenly focus on the monetary policy stance of major central bankers. A move in the Dollar Index and Yields will also be watched by the market. The gold/silver ratio has also fallen from the recent peak of about 97 to about 75, supporting the move in silver. And also apart from safe-haven bets, advancement in green technology and increase in industrial demand could continue to support silver prices," Damani remarked. According to him, there seems some signs of exhaustion in gold and silver and dips could be used as buying opportunities for any medium-to-long-term investor for the target of Rs 58,000 in gold and Rs 73,000 followed by 82,000 in silver.

The stock tanked 20% on Monday (December 27), the first trading day after the decision was made public. <div type="image" title="RBL Bank 01_11_21 to 27_12_21." msid="88515164" hostid="261" caption="&amp;lt;p&amp;gt;RBL Bank share price since November, 2021&amp;lt;/p&amp;gt;"></div> The twist doesn’t end there, either – ace investors Rakesh Jhunjhunwala and DMart’s Radhakishan Damani have <a href="https://twitter.com/CNBCTV18News/status/1475296536980426752">reportedly</a> approached RBI to pick up a 10% stake in RBL Bank, likely to cash in on the opportunity on the horizon. On Friday, RBL Bank’s shares ended the day lower by nearly 3%. In 2021 so far, the company has lost a fourth of its value even as the Bank Nifty index gained over 11%. <cmsannotation type="cmsannotation" annotationid="Why is the RBI intervening in the affairs of RBL Bank?" comment="subhead" text="Why is the RBI intervening in the affairs of RBL Bank?">Why is the RBI intervening in the affairs of RBL Bank?</cmsannotation> While both RBI and RBL Bank have been tight-lipped about the trigger behind the central banker’s intervention, reports suggest that there’s likely more going on between the lines. One of the issues that has been repeated elsewhere is concerns about the asset quality of the bank – the gross non-performing assets (Gross NPA) ratio rose to 5.4% in the September quarter from 3.34% in the year before. Unpaid loans surged in the September quarter, as the moratorium on payments came to an end, particularly in the microfinance segment, which makes for 9% of RBL Bank’s total loan book. <div type="image" title="RBL Bank MFI GNPA ." msid="88516605" hostid="261" caption="&amp;lt;p&amp;gt;RBL Bank microfinance segment GNPA&amp;lt;/p&amp;gt;"></div> However, the rise in bad loans may not be reason enough for the RBI to step in. Earlier this year, RBI had approved Vishwavir Ahuja’s extension as the bank’s CEO till June, 2022. Ahuja going on leave mid-way through his term also signals that there are deeper issues at the bank which have not been disclosed to the public yet. “The sequence of events leading to the sudden exit of Mr. Vishwavir Ahuja along with the induction of Dayal from the RBI on the Board as additional member indicates that everything is not ok with the bank,” noted a letter by All India Bank Employees Association (AIBEA) to Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman. <cmsannotation type="cmsannotation" annotationid="If Jhunjhunwala and Damani are interested, there may be some things working at the bank" comment="subhead" text="If Jhunjhunwala and Damani are interested, there may be some things working at the bank">If Jhunjhunwala and Damani are interested, there may be some things working at the bank</cmsannotation> Billionaire investors Rakesh Jhunjhunwala and Radhakishan Damani reportedly want to pick up a 10% stake in RBL. The two are yet to comment on the matter and investors must take these unconfirmed reports with a handful of salt. As the following meme on social media reminds us: <div type="image" title="RJ RD RBL meme" msid="88516710" hostid="261"></div> According to RBL Bank’s new interim CEO Rajeev Ahuja, the bank’s financials remain strong. “These developments are not on account of any concern on advances, asset quality and deposits level of the bank. The bank has the full support of the RBI,” he said. In the September quarter, RBL posted a net profit of ₹30 crore as against a loss of ₹459 crore in the quarter before. This, the bank says, was due to an increase in provisions for the June quarter. Beyond the profits, RBL Bank’s fundamentals remain strong. Its liquidity coverage ratio stood at 155%, as against the 100% mandated by RBI. This means that in the short-term, the bank has enough cash to meet its obligations. RBL Bank’s credit card business – which constitutes 22% of the company’s total loan portfolio – has been a fast growing segment for the company. In fact, one broking firm, B&amp;K Research, recently argued that RBL’s credit card business is performing better than SBI Card, the country’s <a href="https://www.businessinsider.in/finance/banks/news/heres-why-axis-bank-may-be-willing-to-pay-2-billion-to-buy-citis-india-ops/articleshow/88407858.cms">second largest credit card issuer</a>. However, investors should keep in mind that it is still a small player with a 4% market share in the number of cards issued ⁠— even though it has grown from a mere 1% in 2017 ⁠— is trailing far behind SBI Card’s 19% market share. <cmsannotation type="cmsannotation" annotationid="How can the RBI appoint directors on a private bank’s board?" comment="subhead" text="How can the RBI appoint directors on a private bank’s board?">How can the RBI appoint directors on a private bank’s board?</cmsannotation> RBI has in the past appointed additional directors on the boards of banks like Yes Bank, Dhanlaxmi Bank, Ujjivan Small Finance Bank among others. According to Section 36AB of the Banking Regulation Act, 1949, RBI can appoint additional directors to protect the interests of the bank, its depositors, the banking regulations or the overall public interest. Update: Rakesh Jhunjhunwala has now <a href="https://twitter.com/blitzkreigm/status/1475310523960815622">denied</a> reports of acquiring a stake in RBL Bank.
