1. Purpose of this presentation is not to.. Give gyaan on stock markets. Change your investment decisions and behavior Not to teach Investment wisdom – I myself don’t have any. The purpose of this presentation is just to.. Throw some light on WHAT is happening in INDIA and HOW it is affecting the markets….according to me

2. We mostly invest like that.. When you see life insurance getting confused with investments – term policy versus endowment.. Investments only in PF and FD Excess money is wasted in bank fixed deposits and post office schemes The paranoia around real estate as an investment Equity investments branded as Risky SIP in MFs not understanding the nature of the fund and the scheme Handing over money to a portfolio investor

3. Who is taking the benefit of the Indian Stock markets.. Foreign investors Indian retail investors are absent We have been conditioned to fear the markets We often make mistakes when… …without discipline, we tend to invest recklessly by becoming greedy and not studying the fundamentals.

4. But now things are changing over past 18 months…

5. Reforms happening in almost every area.. Power Gas pricing Telecom Land reforms Retail Telecom bandwidth allocation Banking interest rates Food …. We need to understand these reforms and their implications which will shape the GDP of tomorrow

6. Retail participation is going to grow exponentially..

7. Reforms…Insurance space

Invest for long term – 2 to 5 years Restrict a stock allocation to 1% to 2% of total planned portfolio size Never buy on hearsay Use Moneycontrol app for news, analysis, trends and overall understanding Be patient Don’t churn portfolio regularly. Make changes if needed once per quarter Buy on the days when the markets are down Never buy more than 30% quantity of intended stock at any given time Don’t venture into F&O and day /weekly trading

14.

16. To summarize…Why invest in the markets GDP movement Reforms process will be faster Infra improvement FDI Govt. spending

17. Which sectors/companies I avoid or have limited exposure Infrastructure Real estate Airlines High debt laden PSUs Commodities Pharma – only top 2/3 companies Company whose name I have not heard or business model that I do not understand or am not comfortable about.

18. Finally Don’t take tips from brokers Good magazine to read – Dalal Street Journal Best app – moneycontrol Good website to read – www.valueresearchonline.com Do not fall in the trap of a fast moving stock whose name you have not heard Buy quality always Stock value takes time to move. So please be patient. Markets need to fall to rise so do not loose your sleep when they fall. Never cross 1%-2% of your total portfolio investment in one stock. Take as many stocks as you wish. Always buy small qty to start with Don’t sell if you don’t need to sell
