Tulasi Das: I am 40 years old. Am planning to invest Rs 50,000 per month.
Can you suggest which stocks I should invest in?

Sharan Bidar: I have invested in Airtel and Indian Bank.

Ajit Mishra: Hold and add Airtel on dips and exit Indian Bank.
Arup Banerjee: I had invested Rs 8,000 in Ujjivan Bank and Rs 20,000 in IRCON and holding for above one year.
Please advise whether to exit or hold.
Ajit Mishra: Exit both the stocks.
MJ: I am fairly new to investment and capital markets.
Can’t figure out best investment options but would like to make a start.
I want to invest in the short term (12-18 months), mid term (24-30 months) and long term (max 36 months) with wealth creation in mind.
I am looking at portfolio management services (PMS) as the best option, like White Oak, Marcellus, Abakkus, etc…
Which one would you suggest for an overall 15 to 20 per return year-on-year? Fifty per cent equity exposure is okay.
Appreciate your advice. I don’t want to go for retail investment of five MFs, five SIPs, etc. I don’t have the time and energy to manage that.
Ajit Mishra: I am not closely following the performance of PMS schemes so I can’t comment on the above-mentioned names.
In response to your second question, the combination of asset classes (equity, debt and gold) in your portfolio can be best judged based on your risk appetite and return expectation.

I am 60 years old and a medium to long term investor.
Please advise what I should do.
I also have surplus retirement funds of about Rs 50 lakhs.
What would be the best avenue to invest?
Ajit Mishra:
You can further invest in a mix of equity, bonds, ETF and gold.
Ravindra Raj Mehta: I am holding 200 shares each of Nahar Poly Film and Nahar Spinning for last 20 years.
I got these shares out of conversion of Nahar Export shares.
I do not remember the cost of acquisition.
I need to have your valuable advice on these shares and their future prospects.
