Welcome!

If you are here, chances are that you are tired of your wife's nagging and have accepted the fate that it's time to move out of your parent's abode, which for years had been a paradise for you. If not, your parents must be planning to kick you out of the house. Still better, you are looking for a good investment opportunity. Or, have simply shifted base to a new city and looking for permanent accommodation.
But, for those hit by escalating costs…maybe, this blog can butt out 'the but' in your case. So, feel free to read it and leave your comments.

Satyam getting into real estate…what a farce

Satyam had proposed to acquire Maytas Properties and Maytas Infra, companies controlled and run by the promoter family, for $1.6 billion (around Rs 7,680 crore).

The move was as good as drawing money from the company’s bank account and putting it in the family’s saving account. No wonder the investors cried foul.

What’s worse is that Maytas Properties is a loss-making venture and investment in it was certainly not a wise thing to do.

The surprising part is that Satyam Chairman B. Ramalinga Raju expressed surprise at the market reaction…kamala hai!
