Research FAQs:

Due to the Covid-19 pandemic, a lot of people faced difficulties in jobs and businesses and consequently started investing in equity. Many individuals do not possess the necessary knowledge and skill sets for investing. They follow the tips shared by friends, relatives, business channels, social media etc with a trial-and-error approach and end up with losses and finally quit investing.

We want to be a guiding light for such investors by providing investment recommendations ideas based on strong fundamental and technical analysis by experts.

All your money is in your hands and safe with you. We are not into the process of execution. We provide timed entry and exit points with strict stop losses to ensure maximum profit and security.

We follow a limited set of stocks and not all the stocks trading in the market. We analyze the stocks based on their fundamentals and use technical analysis to time the entry / exit.

Under fundamental analysis we analyze company's overall financial health, analysis of financial statements, the products and services offered, supply and demand, and other individual indicators of corporate performance over time. We give special emphasis on corporate governance and therefore avoid investing in certain corporate groups.

We also track macro factors of the economy, such as GDP, employment, taxation, interest rates, currency, commodities etc. This helps us in building a strong investment thesis.

With the help of technical analysis, you know exactly when to time your action. You are also able to understand demand and supply levels, and breakouts to make better decisions. Buying close to support levels or a breakout above resistance helps you earn greater returns on your investment

We recommend to divide a portfolio in 2 parts: -

Long term portfolio for wealth creation and a short term / trading portfolio for regular income.

Ideally, we suggest minimum investment of about INR 8 – 10 Lakhs and 5-10% of the amount for each stock.

Investments in stocks is subject to market, or systematic, risk. This is because there is no way to predict what will happen in the future or whether a given stock will increase or decrease in value. Because the market cannot be accurately predicted or completely controlled, no investment is risk-free.

However, we suggest to keep a strict stop loss for all the investments. Stop-losses prevent large and uncontrollable losses in volatile markets. If you're not using stop-losses, it's only a matter of time when a large losing position will get out of control and wipe out most of your trading profits, eventually even your entire account.
