At the current price of 68/-, P/E is 27.09 and Div Yield of 0.74 percent. @QW, what are techie charts saying?

Would someone kindly explain why one should speculate or invest in this stock?

@dunkang, I also don’t understand the reason behind the extraordinary premium that this share is trading at. Plus there are convertible bonds in the books which could just increase the extraordinary premium. ..... & eviler, the FYR are very very condensed. Can’t NSE/CMA impose more detailed reporting like what cbk has done with banks¿

By not being far off do you mean say a one year time scope? personally I think this stock is already selling at very high premium and unless the fundamentals don't improve there is bound to be a hard fall at some point.

ARM has loans... Better to give a bonus rather than a dividend & use the cash to pay down the loans!
