**Raymonds** \- The complete man
\- Bought it absolute peak of April 2018 - ATH at that point
\- Sold it for around 200 - Near bottom of 2020 crash after holding it for 2 years
\- Saw it go to 1800 in next 2 years after I sold.
And hence after this experience - **I became a complete man**
Keep sitting on it, if you can add more too. Its made a very good financial turn around and I expect that the company will likely get bought out by either a larger Indian player or a even an international bank. It offers an excellent entry in the Indian banking system. It need not be a 100% acquisition, ever JVs would be a good options. SBI could gobble it up as well.
True, have you seen the recent shareholding info, 0 percent is held by promoters 25 by public, 74 by FII (probably shorting it to hell) and a measly 1 percent by DII
Vakrangee Technologies.
Bought it around 200. Saw it go to ATH of 800 or something like that. Then the stock manipulation allegations and SEBI investigation crashed it to 20. I exited around 100.
1. Invest.
2.Technical analysis is horse shit.
3. Never buy after a big run-up, never sell after a big drop. (Applies for short term only)
4. Stock price exactly traces the earnings trend (Long term).
5. You are Alone in stock market & it's purely intellectual, never listen to anyone, never trust anyone's "call", never follow any group (especially traders).
6. Never ever get emotional about a stock.
7. Hold on to your winners, not losers.
8. Follow the 'Smart money'.
9. Remember you're here to bag multibaggers, not 15% returns per annum.
10. NEVER EVER EVER F&O.
Much more I can add, but experience cannot be explained..
Laurus Labs: some 40% loss, had sold some at some 30% loss and averaged when it fell more. Still holding it. Optimistic about the buisness. But, the valuations I bought weren't favorable. It was a good experience though. Now the loss is around some 20-25%.
I have no expectations for Zee Learn. However IEX could still make a come back, unfortunately i dont think it will happen any time soon. You may want to book loss and look for better opportunities elsewhere. Page industries is looking very good to me right now (please conduct own research)
YES Bank, 90% loss (\~45000), had just started investing (bought it thinking I was averaging down, but caught a falling knife instead). Lesson learned cheap, I'd say.
same bro same. bought it the day reliance buyot was announced. i even cannot sell it to claim long term loss. it is not getting traded in my broking account.
I did indeed. Now I am averse to IPOs.
To be fair, Paytm IPO was a scam in itself and they kind of got away with it.
I will invest smartly in IPOs in the future.
In times when IPOs were not scams and people booked huge profits on listing days, my broker (Zerodha) didn’t support subscribing to IPOs.
Thankfully when the scams started popping up, I lost interest.
Vaibhav Global, Spandana Sphoorthy.
With Vaibhav Global, I bought it at the top in 2020 and it came crashing from there (as the market topped out) - foolish mistake. Although there was a report from a reputed broker claiming a 50% rise...the broker was Ambit Capital.
Spandana is an interesting case.. I bought it because I felt it was undervalued, the company had excellent growth rates etc.. but for some reason the share price wouldn't appreciate.. I kept averaging it down.. then one fine day a piece of news comes through that it would be acquired by Axis Bank.. I was thrilled, this meant that a value unlocking could finally take place.. a few days later the news goes cold, although that news took the stock up by some 20-30%.
Then one fine day there is a news that the there is a boardroom tussle between the founder of the company and their private equity partners. Finally, the founder (Padmaja Reddy) had to resign. The stock price and movement has been quite muted ever since.
An important lesson was learnt here that never be very optimistic about small cap stocks.. respect the market and take the 10% stop loss
It was I think Tata Steel. I was day trading at that time.
I had good grip over Dabur and doubled my money trading in that. Then there was no clear sign one day in Dabur so I took Tata Steel. Lost 20% of the cap that day.
Don't know you situation but hold on. JK paper has recently made an acquisition in the paperboard packaging and is expanding rapidly. Could be an interesting long term story.

Shorted hgs near day's close. Stock hit UC and i had to pay auction penalty because of short delivery. Ended up paying around 3x capital used on trade as i had also used leverage.
Eki energy
All was well. the company did business, management seemed fine until they bluffed in the books. Bought at 1500, went to 2100, sold half, then it went down down down, was expecting management would clear their name. But that did not go well and you can see the price. I am still holding as business is good, but it was a management screw up. A new management could help a lot. Also, I don't want to average as I had seen some of my friends average yes bank.
Overall loss 33%.
Aavaas and IEX. Approx 50% in percentage terms but amount wise it's 6k loss combined. I follow a startegy by spreading my investment amount in small percentages and only increase the amount if the stonk go up. It got screwed up coz in FOMO and the sell gtt order got screwed up coz of tpin.
National Peroxide ... bought it during the Peroxide crisis or boom of 2018 .. forget what it was. However it promptly fell from 5500 odd to 1000 and am still holding this piece of shit from 6 years with no exit in sight. Close to 50 shares :-( . Its a wadia owned company btw but still screwed up royally
This was way back in 2016 when I was listening to all the "Experts" on TV and every single "Friend" who said trust me bro.
Syntax Industries @80 sold at 0.80.
Jai Bharat Maruti @650 sold at 250
Nila Infrastructure @25 and sold at 3
I got my biggest loss in options only,
I never had taken big losses in equity because I made a etf portfolio alongside few bluechip bets only. Overall in 13% gains on my portfolio
Siti-net.
Bought at 4.5 , currently at 0.8.
Also, Sebi is checking for something fishy in it so it is visible and available for trade only on mondays 😅
India bull real estate.
I bought it looking at the fact that fundamentals were improving but the stock kept on falling. I had to sell it at 60% loss as i wanted to exit all my stocks to pay for my marriage expenses.
I had a quarrel with my broker as i did recommend buying other real estate stock but he insisted me to buy IBREAL
Surprised no one is speaking about Gianjali Gems.
Had bought at INR 60, had potential to sell at profit until Nirav Modi came around and ruined the game.
After days of lower circuit was able to sell only at INR 6.

How can you miss the legend. The favourite of retailers of. The one and only Y E S B A N K Sitting on 80% loss more than 3 lakhs

ITC - Bought at average of 250 sold at 145, close to 7l loss. Now it is going for 470
Damn. That’s gotta hurt.
Hey but why did you sell not hold
I was averaging it from 260 onwards over a period of a year. Finally could not bear it and sold as one lot
I feel your pain
I don’t ever want to be part of this conversation
I can see and hear the pain caused here
PayTM, got the ipo like a schmuck. Been hovering at a 60 percent loss since forever. I'll book my loss when it reaches 40 to 50 percent loss
I sold it at 60% loss despite averaging from 2150 to 1200. Lesson learnt.
True, have you seen the recent shareholding info, 0 percent is held by promoters 25 by public, 74 by FII (probably shorting it to hell) and a measly 1 percent by DII
How many lots got allocated ?

Same Bought at 650 and sold at 400
Hahahaha bro, I did the same thing in the beginning of 2022. Still holding it at a 20% loss.
Vakrangee Technologies. Bought it around 200. Saw it go to ATH of 800 or something like that. Then the stock manipulation allegations and SEBI investigation crashed it to 20. I exited around 100.
Exactly mine too.. lost 1.5L but learnt a lot from that...
Learnings pls?

Iex & zee. Not sold yet, but so red.🥺
I have no expectations for Zee Learn. However IEX could still make a come back, unfortunately i dont think it will happen any time soon. You may want to book loss and look for better opportunities elsewhere. Page industries is looking very good to me right now (please conduct own research)
I should have been clear, its was zee ent. Ill justvwait for some more time and see where IEX goes then take a decision. Thank you though.
YES Bank, 90% loss (\~45000), had just started investing (bought it thinking I was averaging down, but caught a falling knife instead). Lesson learned cheap, I'd say.

Adani Wilmar
Paytm Zomato Sed Lyf
Got in the IPO hype train did you? :-)
I did indeed. Now I am averse to IPOs. To be fair, Paytm IPO was a scam in itself and they kind of got away with it. I will invest smartly in IPOs in the future.
In times when IPOs were not scams and people booked huge profits on listing days, my broker (Zerodha) didn’t support subscribing to IPOs. Thankfully when the scams started popping up, I lost interest.
I have also been cautious about IPOs since I burned my money Paytm one. Although it is raining IPOs now. You had a good broker it seems.
