Telcos like Airtel, Vodafone and others may take $400 mn hit on free roaming: The telecom industry awaits a $400 million hit after the new telecom policy draft talked about scrapping of the roaming charges, said analysts tracking the sector. This customer friendly move along with single tariff regime - removing differential local and STD call rates -may dent the operating margins of the leading service providers in high single-digits when implemented. GSM operators like Airtel and Vodafone garner almost 8% revenue from roaming charges, while it accounts for roughly 5% in the case of CDMA players. There is going to be a negative impact (on telecom operators) as far as implementing a free roaming regime goes but it will undoubtedly good for consumers. The overall domestic roaming business for mobile operators amounts to about $600 million annually. The international roaming charges account for as much as $1.2 billion and will remain intact for the operators.

Myiris.com: How to trade in Pipavav Defence, Unity Infra & UTV now?

In an interview with myiris.com, Prashanth Tapse, AVP Research, Mehta Equities gave views on three stocks which were buzzing on Monday. The same is as follows:

Pipavav Defence and Offshore Engineering Company: Pipavav was in front news from last couple of weeks on the Mazagaon JV which was on hold. Media sources states that JV likely to take off only when the ministry puts in place new rules for JVs. Pipavav, which according to its website has the largest shipyard in India, is able to execute a chunk of Mazagon`s USD 21 billion order book, through the joint venture. The firm has an order book of about USD 1.5 billion, including about USD 660 million from the Indian Navy, and has strategic tie-ups with foreign partners including SAAB Dynamics, Northrop Grumman and UK`s Babcock Group for defence production. We believe the deal is about to be in the companies favour and now with the news coming in that the defence ministry has approved the Mazgoan Dock deal that is seen as positive for the stock. On overall basis we are positive on the business prospects. Technically 77.5 act as strong support and stock can test 88-90 on the back of above rationale. Hence, we advice to hold on the counter.

Shares of the company gained Rs 3.7, or 4.66%, to settle at Rs 83.15. The total volume of shares traded was 2,401,875 at the BSE.

Unity Infraprojects: Leading engineering and construction unity infra was in action on the back of awarding orders worth Rs 4,028 million. The first order was for Rs.1,352.8 million for construction (construction of third line between Goelkera-Posoita (15.9 Km)), The second order was for Rs 479.4 million for development (`Marvel Edge` Project at Virman Nagar Pune), The third order was for Rs 838.1 million for constructing distributaries (Botad Brnach Canal ch. 22.605 to 59.152 km) and the last order was for Rs.1,357.7 million for construction of buildings(buildings for various schools bulk services at Central University at Karnataka at Gulbarga by RITES). Technically the stock is been one of the weaker stocks on charts and hence we avoid to take a call on this counter and 45-47 act as strong resistance which if sustains the stock will perform.. Overall the stock is under pressure discounting the above news.

Shares of the company declined Rs 0.05, or 0.12%, to settle at Rs 41.25. The total volume of shares traded was 147,757 at the BSE.

UTV Software: An integrated media and entertainment company UTV is outperforming market performance. The counter was in action in last couple of day on the back of media news stating that Reliance Industries, India`s largest listed firm is set to sign a deal with the Indian unit of Walt Disney, to acquire content for its telecom operations. The deal by Reliance with UTV Software, in which Disney controls 50.44%, is expected to be completed in the coming weeks. The deal is expected to give Reliance access to games, entertainment and children`s content for their telecom operations. We are positive on the media and entertainment business. Technically the stock consolidates at the current level before taking fresh moves on either side.

Shares of the company gained Rs 9.7, or 1.03%, to settle at Rs 953. The total volume of shares traded was 7,981 at the BSE.
