Hey… you had mentioned a problem with Ami org.

-The parabens bit.
-if so Is it still okay to add the stock? Would the current valuation be alright to add to the portfolio?

Thank you very much.

I bet for it’s High-growth high-margin therapeutic segment which contribute more than 85% of it’s revenue .
Few varieties of parabens are banned by few countries. 2-3 products are part of Ami portfolio .
In India, US it’s not banned as studies are still inconclusive, especially related to cancer.
Even if ban happens parabens are not a big part of their portfolio…
I bought around 900/- (50% of intended quantity) Technical charts I don’t check, so can’t comment of levels to buy. But Yes, valuations r bit streached

Whenever i buy a stock i keep a view of 5 -7 years or more, so i don’t think much about entry price. If business is growing, fundamentals are good it will deliver.

*** N.B - When i say inconclusive evidence related to cancer, doesn’t mean there exists no link. There are many studies linked to parabens can trigger hormonal imbalance,cancers etc…
Not only parabens lot of chemicals used in Hygiene, cosmetic products are of concern say like, Tricolsan in toothpaste and soaps , Talc In talcum powders, Phthalates in nail polishes ,Toluene in hair dyes, PABA, benzophenone, oxybenzone in sunscreen , Formaldehyde in shampoo,deo hair Cream and gels , Petrolatum in lip balm and so on …

We are surrounded by chemicals in everything we use and absolute avoidance is impossible. Best we can do is minimise the use and be a informed consumer - check for ingredients ( including ayurvedic/herbal products)

I am going bit off the topic here , but thought of sharing things i know

Oh okay…

I guess I have to wait for a particular level to get into…But don’t know whether waiting would just raise the price of the equity.

But, most of the IPO valuations are stretched from Mtar to Sona.

Thank you very much for this write up.

Even I’m waiting for bit corrections to add remaining 50% .
But can’t predict anything in This fierce bull run …

Laxmi organic turned 4x
Jubilant Ingrevia 3x
And stocks like IRCTC is up 6x from its listing price and 13x from it’s IPO price.

So i never try to time the market… If convinced about it’s future potential buy on Listing day (atleast 50%) and sit on it patiently

NSE, Policybazaar and Nykaa are the ones I am looking forward to

This is the statement given by Top broker of India… Broking business is super cyclical in nature… Beware of getting too aggressive on it … After last Bull runs , bloodbath followed broking stocks …

Technically, this is why I buy BSE instead of CDSL,low cost brokerages. The Exchange is always there, puttering along. BSE price will swing depending on the market but it will still settle trades and still sell MFs and other sundry stock related stuff irrespective of who is registered as a broker who can sell on its xchange.

The only other competition is NSE and it’s not IPO’ed yet. And the GOI will not let it IPO till they spill the beans on the HFT server and who made money on it. Note that the case is now settled for small amounts and a few bans. But large amount of money was made and the GOI would like to know who made. And if NSE does IPO, I’d buy that too.

Remember BSE/NSE is the “watering hole” for everyone in Fin India. And the reason why this forum exists. No BSE no valupickr raison de etre.

Just a minor addition, it’s actually exactly vice versa… financial markets and related stuff/forums do not exist because of bse or any exchange but rather such exchanges/forums etc. exist because of needs of financial markets…there is no company, business etc. Supreme than the markets itself…

CDSL may not be as cyclical as a brokerage

Disc. Not invested in either. Personal thoughts for academic purposes only

CDSL may not be as cyclical as a brokerage

Short of CDSL opening unrelated financial products that are not market related, it will correlate with brokerage performances. As they wax and wane, CDSL,NSDL will too, as they hold the demat shares whose numbers are a function of these low cost brokerages participants. A prolonged slump can cause brokerages to flop while the exchange will still be there doing muted trading and backends will have corresponding lower volumes of fin products in demat form

Looking at just Chemspec, Nykaa and Ixigo…not sure about the rest.

Ixigo is better placed than ease my trip in my view… what do you think sir?

I haven’t read anything on this or any above mentioned ones… anything positive will share here…

Easytrip is the only profitable business in online ticket booking space , which is rare in platform business …
So Invested with limited exposure…

Bullish on Digital/ Platform/Tech . Hold few stocks in that space, Easytrip is one of them

As per my limited knowledge Ease my trip earns 90% of its revenue from airlines itself.
While Ixigo is a leader in OTA for NBU ( Next billion internet users ) so they try to solve problems of tier 2 and 3 cities.
As language becomes a prominent part of how users interact with the app…Ixigo shows promise in this field.

Ixigo is leading 3rd in air line booking after ease my trip.
1st in train booking compared to other OTAs. ( 75% market share with IRCTC 25% routed to OTA platforms who act as distributors for IRCTC )
No. 2 in bus booking.

Market leader in all segments is Makemytrip.

But they are showing a lot of promise. Let me dig deeper though.

Dis: Invested in Ease my trip during IPO. ( But then Ixigo seems to be more promising )

Beware of false prophets, which come to you in sheep’s. clothing, but inwardly they are ravening wolves…

People often forget how brutal can be the bear market which followed every bull market…
And if u r stuck with wrong stocks , with high allocation and at higher levels or valuation, disaster is awaiting .

Biases that can lead to investment mistakes :

Piramal Pharma Solutions–the CDMO business–offers integrated solutions across a drug life cycle. This business will strengthen following the acquisition. Piramal Critical Care ensures the company’s presence in the complex hospital generics with low costs due to backward integration.
