Things to Consider Before Presenting a Presentation by Sachin Karpe

To be a good presenter, you must be prepared. A little advance work can go a very long way when it comes to delivering a compelling, memorable, high-impact presentation says Sachin Karpe. Here are the five key things you need to know before you present – You must know your audience as you have to create the presentation form their perspective, Know Your Material – you have to be familiar with the content you are presenting, you may lack confidence during your delivery, or end up reading directly from notes to avoid making mistakes, know your strengths and weaknesses - stick to what your good at, and deliver your presentation in a way that plays up your proven strengths and you should know what “Plan B” is as disaster can strike at any time before or during your presentation.  You’ll need to know – in advance – how you will handle certain situations.

Sachin Karpe Advices on How Much Percentage of Income Should Be Saved Every Month

Saving money is the wisest thing to do. It not only depicts a good sense of finance but also hints towards the value of money. Saving money has its own advantages and it needs to be adopted everyone, quips Sachin Karpe. You need not be a financial guru to do it but, it should come inherently. Mostly driven by the thought of what when the inflow of money stops? Do I have enough money for contingency or regular expenses? So, it is ideal to save some amount monthly. Say, a 30 percent of your monthly income. One must follow a ground rule of saving first and then spending. It does not take much effort. Create a separate bank account and deposit the 30 percent in it. That way your money will increase also with the help of interest accrued. At the end, when you find yourself in some unforeseen circumstance, you will feel better to have a back-up ready and, probably pat your back for the wise decision you made, says Sachin Karpe while encouraging people to save money.

What is the Difference Between Shares and Stocks?

http://karpesachinn.wordpress.com/
Shares and stocks are understood as same. While contextually they mean the same, by rule of books, they have different from each other.

Sachin Karpe throws some light on their difference.

Shares: Shares always have an equal denomination. They are a total number of units into which capital of company is divided.

Example: If paid up capital of company is Rs. 100,000, it can distribute 1000 shares of Rs. 10 each.
They have a nominal value and can be paid partly / fully.

Sachin Karpe explains further.

Stocks: Stocks are nothing bust assets in the form of cash reserve that can be divided into any desirable figure.

Example: company receives Rs. 100,000 as external investment and decides to keep Rs. 50,000 separately for issuing stock options to employees (ESOPs). It can issue 50,000 stocks of Rs. 1 each, 100,000 stocks of Rs. 0.50 each or any other combination. These are fully paid and can be split into unequal amounts.

Profit booking seen upwards at the stock market

The last hour sell off witnessed in the previous trading session on Thursday continues into today’s opening as well, with most of the indices down 0.50%. very clearly, in the absence of FII participation, local market participants seem to be taking some profits off the table, particularly in counters and sectors that have seen sharp run up towards the end of CY13. Banks and Cap Goods particularly are the ones where the profit-booking impulse seems to be sharper, with IT and PHARMA continuing to offer a defensive stance to portfolios. The start of the year has also seen some firming up on the US equity markets and that augurs well for frontline IT Co’s like INFY, TCS, HCLTECH in days to come. Mid caps continue to offer value to the long term investors and any volatility in the markets will offer decent entry opportunities for investors who may have missed out on accumulating some of the strong contenders in the mid cap space such as CROMGREAVES, VOLTAS, UNITED SPIRITS, VIP, JUSTDIAL, etc. Buying into dips till about 6000 levels should be the ideal strategy going forward.
