PRANAV SANGAHAVI says, Good afternoon people. Welcome to the chat. Let's begin.
Gaurav asked, Can u suggest some large cap stocks which can be bought today to invest for long term(3-5 years) ??
PRANAV SANGAHAVI answers, You could look at RIL, TCS, INFY, Bharti, SBI, L&T with a long term outlook.
VINEET asked, Hello Sir.Do u think its time to Invest in Century Textiles
PRANAV SANGAHAVI answers, If your outlook is 6 months and over, yes you could invest into the stock at current levels.
qasim asked, will the markets trade in a range-bound mode this week?
PRANAV SANGAHAVI answers, I think the markets performance will rely a lot on how the US markets do this week atleast. If the weakness which started with yesterdays fall continues even today, we could see a correction in our markets.
Anurag asked, Hi What is your take on the short, medium and long term direction of the markets
PRANAV SANGAHAVI answers, As I said in my previous reply the short term outlook will depend on how the global markets perform especially the US markets. In the long term I think our markets are pretty much intact. No foreign money also is in a hurry to leave the Indian shores.
rkshankar asked, The unitech shares are going up in geometrical proportion on average 25 to 50% in a month . It is being quoted at more than Rs.509/- now. How far will it go? Shankar
PRANAV SANGAHAVI answers, The only scary part of Unitech's meteorical rise is that it moves up in circuits. There seems to be no consolidation phase at all. But relying on the recent news developments it could be looked at. But beyond a certain P/E ratio it will become expensive.
KAPS asked, Hello Pranav,Can you suggest me some stocks which i should buy even at such a high figures at sensex.I want to invest for a period of 3-5 years and can take risk.Should i invest in TCS,Wipro,satyam,Infoysys at the rates available today on a long term basis.Also can you suggest me some good mutual funds where i can invest in SIP.This is the second week i am asking you a question and hope to receive some guidance from you
PRANAV SANGAHAVI answers, Hi Kaps, If your outlook is for 3 to 5 years you should surely not be bothered by the high rates. The market looks to grow steadily over this time frame. The stocks you have suggested are good but I would also look at the frontline in the cement, banking and infrastructure sectors too. As far as SIP is concerned chose a fund which is a Large-cap, Diversified Blue Chip fund and you should be safe with a long term plan.
Rocky asked, What is you view abt VIP and Blow plast merger and its values. Is it good time to buy VIP or Blow plast stocks
PRANAV SANGAHAVI answers, I would like to study the transaction before I would comment on the same. But but companies should fare well in the retail boom that we are seeing. Also the indirectly linked travel sector is also mushrooming.
vmathew asked, what is the immediate trend of the market
PRANAV SANGAHAVI answers, I think I mentioned it just a few queries earlier.
iseeac asked, how much correction do you see at 14000 level
PRANAV SANGAHAVI answers, Please understand that corrections are healthy for the markets and one should not be scared of them. Infact, if you are a long term investor then it should be time to buy. The markets could correct up to 5% to 7%. But one should keep in mind the fund flows into our markets have been very strong in the current month. I think a little over US 2 billion.
KING asked, hai, i have some 2000 shares of accel frontline taken at IPO at rs.75/- each, can i hold the shares or to sell at current price of around 62+ , will i get my money of atleast 75 during around a month or so,,, please advice

Tulu asked, How do you view the Tea industry for the current financial year. I am invested in Harrisons Malayalam. What is your outlook for it.
PRANAV SANGAHAVI answers, The Tea business is a cyclical one and you should be watchful of the demand supply and price movements in the commodity markets.

Shake asked, wat abt balrampur chini in the long term perspective(say 1 year)?
PRANAV SANGAHAVI answers, In the short term the sugar stocks may not outperform the markets. If the government lifts the ban on exports we could see the stocks rising.
arun asked, can i start investing around 10,000/month in SIP's now. i know the markets r bullish now, but wud it make sense to invest now? do u suggest any?
PRANAV SANGAHAVI answers, If you continue the investments for about 3 to 5 years then yes you could.
Againstodds asked, Hello Pranav, Stock market is a zero sum game, who actually is making money these days? How a retail investor's perspective differs from an institutional investor.
PRANAV SANGAHAVI answers, I beg to differ. People are making money. FII's with their bigger financial strength are making more than other segment of investors as they have the power to actually move markets as we saw in May/June correction.
Manjul asked, I have Praj Inds for Rs.206/-. What do I do - hold or sell at current levels becoz they seem to hv got stuck up in the 190s?

Gaurav asked, wht do u think of US economy getting slowdown....wht impact can it make to indian stock market and is fed going to cut interest rate to compensate that in near future?
PRANAV SANGAHAVI answers, It would marginally impact India. Infact India with it's robust GDP growth rate would attract more funds. The Fed may cut interest rate at some point but I don't think in the near future.
