Shares of Vodafone Idea (Vi) saw a huge rise on December 15, where the stock rose more than 3% to reach a fresh 52-week high of ₹12.03. This surge came after media reports said that the government is considering giving an interest-free moratorium of 4–5 years on AGR dues.

Currently, Vi has outstanding AGR dues of more than ₹83,000 crore, of which about ₹18,000 crore has to be paid every year from March 2025.

According to the proposal, after the moratorium the dues can be paid in 6 installments and after reassessment the total payable amount can be significantly reduced.

The Supreme Court has already allowed the government to reassess the dues till FY17, which is being considered a big relief for the company. Vodafone Idea has already warned about funding stress.

Banks are cautious, but increasing stake by the government to about 49% through equity conversion is a positive signal for investors. The stock has gained nearly 97% from its low of ₹6.12 in August.

Now the market is eyeing the final decision of the Union Cabinet, which will decide whether this rally is short-term or the beginning of a long-term turnaround of Vodafone Idea.

Sensex and Nifty are at record highs, but despite this the portfolios of most retail and HNI investors are not looking in the green. In the last one year, 464 out of 750 Nifty stocks have been in decline and many smallcap and midcap stocks have given negative returns of more than twenty percent. On the other hand, due to strong cash flows, foreign buying and balance-sheet strength, large caps have kept the index afloat. Most of the exposure of retail investors is in small and mid caps, where margin pressure, valuation gap and earnings weakness have increased losses. For this reason, many portfolios are in decline even when the broader market is up. However, going forward, small caps may also gain strength due to GST rate cuts, infrastructure growth and consumption recovery. This video explains why the indices are up, why your portfolio is down and why disciplined, fundamentals-based stock selection is important in such an environment.
