I have added Borosil Renew and Laurus Labs recently. Thanks to VP!! I feel that, I have invested too much financial sector. Need to divest a bit.
financials are too many but it may be a prudent strategy incurrent scenario because financial sector is coming back in lime light. It can give good return.
First of all, congrats Arnav. At your age, i was busy chasing Unitech and loosing all the money. The portfolio is reasonably diversified
Any reasons why you have changed your portfolio drastically within last 20 days? Many of the Category 1 stocks are missing in the latest list. Any specific reasons ?
Also, how often do you do buy/sell transactions or re-shuffle stocks ?
Thanks Surya!! All those catagory 1 stocks are under Others - Blue Chip.
Actually some of my FD’s matured this month, which I invested in stocks. The rate of interest is pretty low im FD’s now. That’s why change in portfolio composition.
I haven’t sold anything as of now. But I usually purchase once in 2 months…
