The Shipping Corporation of India Limited (SCI), established in 1950 and headquartered in Mumbai, India, is a global provider of diverse maritime services operating across India, Singapore, and international waters. The company's operations are divided into several key segments, including Liner, Bulk, Tanker, Technical & Offshore, and other specialized services. SCI maintains a substantial fleet of 59 vessels, boasting a combined deadweight tonnage of 5.311 million. This fleet encompasses various ship types, such as bulk carriers, crude oil and product tankers, container vessels, LPG carriers, passenger-cargo ships, and offshore supply vessels. Its bulk carriers are employed in transporting a wide array of commodities, from essential raw materials like iron ore, coal, and bauxite, to agricultural products such as grain and fertilizers, and manufactured goods like steel and plywood. Tankers play a crucial role in supplying crude oil to refineries, while the passenger-cum-cargo vessels facilitate transport services connecting the Indian mainland with the Andaman and Nicobar Islands. Beyond primary shipping, SCI also engages in ship chartering and lighterage operations. The company offers a comprehensive suite of offshore services, encompassing towing, anchor handling, personnel and material transport, emergency standby and rescue, routine surveillance, and firefighting. Furthermore, it provides expertise in operating, manning, maintaining, and managing various vessels. SCI extends its expertise to consultancy, assisting with both new shipbuilding projects and the acquisition of pre-owned vessels. For new builds, services span project viability and feasibility, design guidance, project management, and on-site supervision. When acquiring second-hand ships, SCI helps identify suitable vessels, evaluate proposals, conduct inspections of records and physical condition, manage governmental approvals, and oversee the delivery process. Additionally, the corporation offers liner services, including break-bulk and container shipping.

A clear, direct weekly summary.
Learn the fundamentals behind this asset.
A stock is a fraction of ownership in a real company. Buy one share and you own a piece (usually a tiny piece) of every desk, factory, contract and brand the company runs. The price moves because the market keeps revising what that whole pie is worth.
The price-to-earnings ratio is how much investors are paying for one dollar of a company's profit. A multiple, never an absolute. Always compared to something: a sector, a region, the company's own past.
Dividend yield is the annual income a stock or ETF pays out, expressed as a percentage of what you paid for it. It is the visible part of total return: the cash that lands in your account every quarter, and the lever most retail investors actually feel.
Market cap is shares times price. A simple formula that produces wildly unequal numbers: a single US tech name can be worth more than every company on a LATAM exchange combined.
