T-20 international cricket tournaments for physically challenged - Wadekar Trophy 2018

Sachin Tendulkar will be present at the ceremony of prize distribution – Vinod Kambli

1^st T-20 cricket match between India and Afghanistan of physically challenged players for the “Ajit Wadekar Trophy” was organised by the All India Cricket Association for Physically Challenged (ALCAPC). This ceremony is inaugurated by cricketer Vinod Kambli, Consul General of Afghanistan in India Mohammed Zia Salehi, Mumbai University Vice- Chancellor, Dr. Suhas Pednekar, Trade Attache of Afghanistan Abdul Nafi Sarwari, “Avaya” Regional Sales Head Rahul Bhave, CS Infocomm Managing Director and Anil Jogalekar and All India cricket Association President Ashok Wadekar at Air India ground, Kalina, Santacruz East on 9^th December 2018

The tournaments is started from 9^th December to 17 December2018, at Sachin Tendulkar Gymkhana, Kandivali and the prize distribution ceremony would also be held at the same venue.

The international tournament has been organised in memory of cricket star and former captain of India Ajit Wadekar. All India Cricket Association for Physically Challenged had been working under guidance of Wadekar for the last three decades to promote cricket among physically challenged players. Earlier the cricket Associations from 28 states had participated in 5 nations’ international tournament held in Bangladesh.

Ajit Wadekar’s brother and President of All India cricket Association Ashok Wadekar, who was present during inaugural match turned emotional and said that “Ajit had been doing hard work for the physically challenged people for the last 30 years. He was giving a chance to them to play on international platform and helped them to improve their status in the society so that they too could achieve celebrity status. He also help them to improve their self-esteem and team spirit. Ajit’s dream has finally came true. In fact BCCI should have given the affiliation to AICAPC for which he had been trying since 2002. But BCCI is yet to respond to the request. As per the Supreme Court’s decision and the Lodha committee’s recommendations, AICAPC may get the recognition, but one doesn’t know how much time it would take” he added.

The tournament is being held under the International Cricket Council's “T20 cricket tournament format”. In the zonal leg was Maharashtra, New Delhi, Gujarat, Tamil Nadu, Haryana, Karnataka, Odisha, West Bengal, Jharkhand and Andhra Pradesh participated.

Samco Securities ventures into the Mutual fund Research and Distribution business with RankMF

www.RankMf.com answers the most popular question today -  “Kaunsa Mutual Fund Sahi hai”

Mumbai, 28 November 2018: Keeping in line with SAMCO’s tradition of excellence and innovations, SAMCO Securities is pleased to announce the introduction of RankMF, which will revolutionize the selection of mutual fund schemes with its proprietary ratings and rankings system that will help investors know “kaunsa mutual fund sahi hai”.

There are thousands of mutual fund schemes “Par Kaunsa Mutual Fund Sahih hai”?  RankMF’s innovative offering is a first-of-its-kind service in India that will empower millions of investors who are seeking accurate research. RankMF rates and ranks all mutual fund schemes so that none of the options “SAHI” for them are missed out. RankMF does not limit itself to outdated ranking methodologies used by the existing mutual fund ranking platforms.

RankMF ratings and ranks are completely independent. It not only rates and ranks on past performance, but also on a variety of factors by using over 20 million data points such as expense ratios, standard deviation, beta, market valuations and multiples, portfolio holdings and diversification/concentration of portfolio, the cash ratio of a fund, size of the fund, the predicted yields and others. RankMF analyses the most important factor which is the quality of actual portfolio holdings since that is going to deliver real returns to investors and not historical returns which are used by other ranking platforms.

RankMF provides the most basic but immensely important filters such as “if the time is right for investments” and “strength of mutual funds schemes”, alongside providing personalized and guided experience – be it lumpsum or SIP or readymade researched baskets – for meeting investors’ financial objectives.

Introducing the RankMF SmartSIP ^TM : SIP is not systematic or smart investing, it's simply automated investing, Starting a mutual fund SIP and continuing to invest in it at all times through market ups and down has nothing to do with systematic investing.  SIP is NOT a smart system. The RankMF SmartSIP ^TM System solves this problem. Based on the margin of safety in the markets, RankMF generates signals which you should follow for your SIPs.  What are these signals and what do they mean?

● Like Signal: Begin or continue your SIP. This shall be when markets are reasonably valued

● Skip SIP: Skip your SIP for the month since markets are in an expensive phase offering lower value for money

● Dislike Signal: Markets are extremely expensive and you should skip and sell your SIP

● 2 Likes Signal: Increase your investments or double your SIP since markets are relatively cheap and offer great margin of safety or value for money

Omkeshwar Singh, who has been the head of BSE StAR MF / Mutual Funds Market Segment, will lead Rank MF. Singh has almost two decades’ experience in financial services and is considered an expert on mutual funds distribution. He has worked across reputed organisations like BSE Ltd, ROMS Management Services Pvt Ltd, Anand Rathi, Net worth Stock Broking Ltd and Karvy Finance.
