SIP in direct equity (self managed MF!)

Hi All,

So May 2014 has been a good month for India (election) and personally for me as well (Landed a new job.)

Now I am planning to infuse the 'pay hike' into equity through SIP. So I have two options -

1) Equity MF

2) Direct equity - Manage my own equity MF ;)

Following is the planned investment. I would appreciate any comments/suggestion for modifications/brickbats.

I have also provided my current portfolio for reference.

Stock Allocation Comment
Astral Poly 20% Astral is already my largest holding @ ~18% of my portfolio. Should I invest more?
Atul Auto 20%
Repco 20%
VST Tillers 20%
Ajanta Pharma 20%

- Valuation of page has always deterred me from entering it. A good candidate for SIP?
