MC officials said that cities like Delhi and Indore were already participating in the project, launched by the Govt of India, around two years ago. Officials feel that the revenue generated through sale of carbon credits can be reinvested…

[ad_1] Image source: Getty Images With the Bank of England cutting rates, savers are likely to get weaker returns on their cash than they did before. But there’s a FTSE 250 stock that I think looks interesting right now. The stock is Assura (LSE:AGR) – a real estate investment trust (REIT) that leases a portfolio of healthcare buildings. Its rent is 81% government-funded and there’s a 9% dividend on offer. Please note that tax treatment depends on the individual circumstances of each client and may be subject to change in future.

[ad_1] Image source: Getty Images Above the £500 allowance, basic rate taxpayers have to pay 8.75% on dividends. For someone earning £12,000 a year, that’s £1,006, but a Stocks and Shares ISA allows them to avoid this. That can make a big difference to the amount someone needs to invest to collect £1,000 a month in passive income. And this is something investors shouldn’t underestimate. Dividend yields Interest rates in the UK are currently 4.25%. So I don’t think investors looking for dividend income should buy stocks that they don’t expect to provide a better return than this over time. …

[ad_1] Image source: Getty Images If I had invested £1,000 in Serabi Gold (LSE: SRB) a year ago when it was a penny share, I would now be sitting on an investment worth £2,680. No longer a penny share, Serabi has soared 168% over the past 12 months. It can be argued that the reasons behind that rise still suggest a lot of growth potential. Perhaps even more than we have seen in the past year. So should I buy the share today? Increasing production in a strong market There are a couple of main reasons we have seen the…

The average forecast of the 18 brokers covering the stock is for a post-tax profit of £4.64bn (FY23: £5.52bn). Following recent base rate cuts, they are expecting Lloyds’ net interest margin (NIM) to come under pressure. Their FY24 consensus is for a NIM of 2.95%…
