The new heroes

Zydus Wellness leads the ETIG’s 2010 list of 100 Fastest Growing Small Companies. It zoomed to the top from fourth position last year. The scrip has benefited immensely due to the merger of Cadila Healthcare’s consumer healthcare business and continues to remain debt-free and cash-rich.

The recently listed Technofab Engineering occupies the second spot, thanks to its impressive profit growth over the last three years. But it is Hawkins Cookers, which stole the show in the top five. It made it to the top three after figuring down in the list at the 19th position last year. A superior profit growth in FY10 helped the company cruise past the likes of Man Infraconstruction, Vinati Organics and VST Tillers Tractors. Vinati Organics shot up from last year’s 14th rank to 8th this year and VST Tillers from 27th to 12th position.

A few seem to have lost their ground compared to last year. Tata Sponge Iron, which stood tall at the third position in 2009 list, has slipped to 20th this year. Similarly, Praj Industries slipped considerably moving down to 83 in the list after being ranked 10th last year. Sulzer India, the topper from last year, recently got delisted and hence couldn’t make it to the list this year.

Among other firms, Bliss GVS Pharma made an impressive entry to the list occupying the fourth position. Man Infra - another newly listed company - entered the list directly at the fifth spot. Plastic goods manufacturer, Mayur Uniquoters, which had failed to make it to last year’s list due to weak interest coverage ratio in the past, has made it this year. The company ranks seventh in this year’s list.

China vs India: Sikkim border conflict between India and China in 1967

Did you know India has offered 800 sheep and 59 yaks to China. Image Source: Google Images I am pretty sure its hard to believe, but its true, that India has offered 800 sheep and 59 yaks to China. 1962 war with China will remain in the memories of most of the Indians. Although China was not able to gain any strategic advantage after the war. Hence China keeps on waiting or rather creating these small issues to take advantage out of them. For this China opened another front in Sikkim and Arunachal Pradesh, but they did not find any reason to start any conflict with India in these reasons. Then comes this missing flock of 800 sheep and 59 yaks besides the allegations of territorial incursions. This let to the build-up Sikkim border conflict between India and China in 1967. This is what China was looking for since 1962 war. Exchanges between the two governments dating back to 1965 reveal that China accused Indian troops of stealing the flock of animals from Tibetan herdsmen ...
