Have seen your advice to exit Yes Bank and Coal India scrips, but is it wise to exit on losses?

Are these total gone cases with no scope of revival in 4-5 years as well?

Other scrips I have are performing well like Axis, Infosys and L&T, which I plan to hold. Any advice on them? Should I book profit?
