SIFY Pulls Ahead, Stock Sets New 3 Year High
People like myself who are in the stock for the long term are not too bothered by these numbers-the SIFY story will unfold over the next 5-10 years, and together with REDF, I think these guys have a good chance of being the major Internet Portals of the Indian Internet Sector.
REDF is looking weak, but probably needs to consolidate a little before the next move higher. The stock has almost tripled in a year and the gains need to be digested.
Threat from Yahoo.co.in remains to both of these companies. Yahoo is a formidable brand, and I am hearing reports that they are advertising more strongly in India. But so far, SIFY and REDF remain the top 2 destinations in India. Will keep you apprised if I come across some Traffic Data in India (really hard to get!).

Dear Sanjay,
I just found a couple of recomendations for Mahanagar Telephone (MTE) in some internet forums.
Most of these recomendations are based on some newspaper articles or stock analysts and their news letters.
But no one of them ever went to India.
You are probably a little bit closer to this country. Closer than all these type of gurus in internet forums.
How do you see Mahanagar and the chance for making good profits when investing in it.
Bigcharts gives it a P/E of about 35 which seems to be fairly high for an ordinary telecom company.
Is there anything to justify this high P/E except the fact that the company operates in a country that moves into the focus of investors.
Thanks
MTE is a high growth Telecom. It has a big cellular arm also, and a host of Internet offerings, which is probably the reason the Market gives it a higher PE than a standard Telecom. The growth part is the Internet Services and the Cellular Operations.
Hope that helps.
Sanjay
