'One should focus not on the price, but the value you get.'
Ajit Mishra, vice president, Research, Religare Broking, answers your queries:
Hariharaprasaad P: Sir, I am going to make my first investment in stock market. Since I am a student and not having a full time employment, I can afford only low price stocks. I have been thinking about investing in Vodaphone Idea, Spice Jet, IOB, GAIL and Network 18. If these are not feasible, please suggest some good low price stocks.
Ajit Mishra: Avoid all except GAIL. One should focus not on the price but the value you get. If you are new to investment, we would recommend investing in blue chips like HDFC Bank, Reliance Industries, Britannia Industries, Maruti and HUL but in staggered manner
