PRANAV SANGHAVI says, Good afternoon everyone. Welcome to the chat. Let's begin.

Anish asked, hi i'm new in share market i would like to know whats does oreder term day / IOC means
PRANAV SANGHAVI answers, IOC stand for Indian Oil Corporation.
i asked, I want to know the future of GMR INFRA,SAIL,Ranbaxy Labs,Parsvnath developers for next 6 months.Is it right time to buy them at current levels
PRANAV SANGHAVI answers, I think both the realty stocks should do well provided they deliver on the projections they have made and the demand in the real estate market does not drop. SAIL, and Ranbaxy both should give you decent returns.
i asked, Is it right time to buy mrf,goodyear for the time frame of 1 year
PRANAV SANGHAVI answers, MRF you could surely look at. For Goodyear wait for the quarterly results and compare it with the previous quarters and then take a decision.
sankar asked, s it worth buying techmahindra and infy now?
PRANAV SANGHAVI answers, They both have spurted after the Infy results so the best time to get in would be in a correction. Nonetheless, if you are a long term investor you could look at investing in them. Tech Mahindra for eg. had bagged a US$ 1 billion to be delivered over a period of 5 years.
sankar asked, what r the best buys now?
PRANAV SANGHAVI answers, I would pick stocks whose results should be good but have not moved along with the market over the last month. Stocks like ITC, SBI etc.

PRANAV SANGHAVI answers, You would need to get a Chart Software. The software will give you various methods of analysing stock price movements. There are various vendors of such softwares.
kaps asked, hello Pranav,What does it mean "Last Close - 090.70 | Support - 082, 066 | Resistance - 100, 121
PRANAV SANGHAVI answers, Hello Kaps, Last close indicates closing price of the stock the previous day. Support indicates as to what levels the stock would get support from the market if it falls and resistance indicates at what price there would be selling which would prevent the price from moving further up. This is basically a stock analysts statement.
kaps asked, Any of the new ipos going that you suggest to buy???
PRANAV SANGHAVI answers, There are a couple of good IPO's in the offing. If you are interested in the Real Estate play then Akruti Nirman is round the corner.

PRANAV SANGHAVI answers, I think corrections are a part and parcel of the game but if the companies keep performing as they have over the last 2 years I don't see why the markets should not move up. For me every major correction would be an opportunity to buy.
