Johnson Controls-Hitachi (JCHAC IN) | Irreparable Loss in Market Share

By Pranav Bhavsar

  • Our checks suggest Hitachi Home & Life Solutions India Ltd (JCHAC IN) has lost market share this season. 
  • Market share loss has come on the back of poor product quality due to focus on costs and competition, which is irreparable in spite of the strong dealer network. 
  • Poor capital allocation, high receivables and low-profit margins, all warrant attention.

By Nitin Mangal

  • The legal tussle between promoters of Dish TV India (DITV IN) and Yes Bank (YES IN) has again entered into the limelight.
  • The promoters of Dish TV, after repeatedly attempting to block Yes Bank from voting, have been left in the dark by the Bombay High Court’s verdict. 
  • However, Mr. Goel still continues to sit on the board which irked several investors. This indicates that the story is not over and there are still some grey areas.
