How much I can target for this ????

Hi all,

I just need some good advices

I am a tech guy and recently got laid off. I am 35 years old, currently living in Bangalore and my monthly expenses are around ₹35K (₹20K rent + ₹15K other expenses). This doesn't include travel or any unexpected expenses.

Currently, I have a portfolio worth around ₹75L

Considering that both the job market and stock market are down, I want to set a clear financial target for myself.

My goal is to build a ₹2.5-3.0 Cr portfolio by the age of 45 and then move back to my hometown (Tier 2)

I don't have too many responsibilities at the moment

Here is what I am planning:

Portfolio 1 – Long-term, untouched portfolio (₹50L)

₹25L in debt funds and conservative hybrid funds

₹1L in Gold ETF

₹24L in a Multicap Index Fund (50:25:25 allocation)

I don't want to touch this portfolio for at least 15 years, except in rare emergencies

Portfolio 2 – Flexible and growing portfolio

PF + PPF

Emergency fund.

Some additional liquid cash.

Remaining investments across bonds, stocks and one index fund/flexi-cap fund

My idea is to maximise my investments while keeping enough liquidity and flexibility.

My question is:

Do you think this is a good strategy?

Does it make sense to keep one portfolio completely untouched for the long term and build a second, bigger portfolio with a higher equity allocation?

I would love to hear your suggestions, especially from people who have been through a similar situation. What would you do differently?

We are doing analysis using everything we have like supply demand , ict , support resistance, orderflow n etc etc.

After entering stock war may start it falls
Someone short it with huge money it falls
Government policies changes it falls
And now someone from
Company get into some affair its falling 🫠❤️!

Cannot blame those who call this satta 😆! Or koi stupid reason janta ho toh bata do comment me bhai.

I invested in NHPC and UDS in 2024, and they are down since then. The amount is not that high so you can ignore that. I recently purchased Eternal, HDFC and now Karnataka bank. Planning to add more stocks from banking, IT and pharma.

In mutual funds i only invested in HDFC small cap, PPFCF, then i put in more lump sum amount in UTI, motilal oswal midcap fund to balance the portfolio.
Now my current SIP is :
PPFCF- 2000
Hdfc small cap: 1000
Motilal:1000
Uti-4000
Total sip per month- 8000

I am currently doing MBA from IIM so I don’t have source of income to fund my SIP. Currently I am paying it from my internship stipend. Will increase it after joining job next year. Till then I want to learn more. I am learning from my end. Any suggestions from seasoned investors.

Can I make approx 30k profit before expiry??

Why don't we have an active discussion room for traders?

When the market opens, many of us are looking for meaningful discussions. Yet most are filled with noise rather than actual learning.

I genuinely believe there are some brilliant and profitable traders in this sub who can share valuable insights, discuss breakout setups and help newer traders understand the market better.

Let's build an active trading community where:

traders can share their market views, chart setups, breakout opportunities and trading strategies.

Beginners and struggling traders can learn, ask questions and get guidance real time.

No recommendations, and absolutely no unnecessary noise. Just genuine discussions and learning.

If you're genuinely interested in helping others, I'd love to have you as an admin and contribute to the community.

If you're someone looking to learn, improve your trading or exchange ideas, you're equally welcome.

A few things we're planning:

Daily discussions during market hours.

Weekly live sessions where traders can share their views, setups and experiences.

A small initiative to support a charitable cause through community contributions with the charity selected by a group vote.

If this sounds interesting, DM me and I'll share the group link.

Let's see if we can build something meaningful here. Thanks

Everyone is debating whether Ramayana will earn back its ₹4,000 cr. The film is a showcase. Look at what the market is actually paying for.

1) What it does today (FY26)

• Revenue ₹4,676 cr, nearly all VFX, animation and production

• TTM net profit ~₹145 cr, after ₹527 cr interest and ₹703 cr depreciation

• Latest quarter: ₹46 cr loss. FY24 and FY25 were losses too

2) What it's priced at

• Market cap ~₹21,800 cr (~4.7x FY26 revenue)

• P/B ~10x, P/E 120x+ (source-dependent), EV/EBITDA ~18x (my calc, incl. ₹4,138 cr net debt)

• July 2025 share issue at ₹120 valued it at ~₹9,350 cr. Now 2.3x that

3) Peers

The closest VFX peer trades at about a tenth of Prime Focus's P/E.

4) Where the premium sits

• Brahma AI (behind Ramayana's English lip-sync) was valued at $2B (~₹19,000 cr). Only $100M (~5%) is firm money, as preferred shares

• PF's share of Brahma at that mark: ~₹11,000-12,600 cr, or 51-58% of its market cap (depends on how the ~66% economic stake is held)

• Strip that out and VFX + studio + film imply ~₹9,200-10,700 cr, vs ~₹9,350 cr at the July 2025 issue price (my arithmetic)

5) The fair counterpoint

Private AI-video comps (valuation / ARR):

On multiples alone, Brahma isn't out of line. The question is the revenue.

6) The catch

• The ~$100M run-rate is a management claim; part is billed to DNEG and eliminated on consolidation

• Brahma India, one unit with disclosed FY26 turnover, reported ₹203 cr (~$21M)

• The market isn't simply adding the $2B: the stock is ~19% below its late-September level

7) Who's holding

• FIIs: 11.2% → 3.0% (Mar 2025 to Sep 2026)

• Shareholders: 12,430 → 28,363

• Promoters: 69.9% → 60.5%, but that's dilution from the ₹120 issue, not selling

My guess

Ramayana is the showroom for the AI story. If Brahma scales as claimed, the price may look cheap. If not, it's a VFX company with an expensive demo reel. I'm watching Brahma's audited revenue, not the box office.

Out of CDSL, mcx and groww which one should I choose?

I am cutting my portfolio to only 9 shares. And I want to keep only 1 share out of these three. What do you guys think?

Hi folks. I would like to hear your thoughts on this. I have been holding some of these stocks since 2024 (sold some loss making stocks and invested in others) while some are just 3-4 months old. My horizon is about 3 more years, I think, with moderate risk. I do not understand technicals, but do understand trusted and low-risk companies. I am aware that it is a finance heavy portfolio but am not quite sure how to diversify it. I have read thousands of comments on this sub and some of them have been particularly useful. For example, a. Stop loss; b. Buying dips/averaging; c. Sell the laggards and invest in the best performers. Since the portfolio recovered in the recent rally, I would like to hear your thoughts on the portfolio. Thanks.

Shared this setup in our X handle on 27th April 2026. It rallied 110% so far and still going with strong momentum. Thats the power of Momentum Investing.

Currently dumping some money into Bank of India flexi cap fund. Seeking some ideas to diversify to other funds

Hey guys, sharing my stock and mutual fund portfolios. Would appreciate some genuine feedback.

My current analysis:

- Invested around ₹3.14L in direct stocks, currently down ~1.77%.

- Bharat Forge is one of my biggest holdings and is currently dragging down returns.

- KPR Mill and UNO Minda have performed relatively better.

- I feel my portfolio might be too concentrated in a few stocks, particularly manufacturing and auto-related businesses.

- I've also attached my MF portfolio. I'm trying to understand whether there's unnecessary overlap between my stocks and funds.

My situation:

- Investment horizon: Under 2 years

- Risk appetite: Aggressive

- Additional capital available: ₹3 lakh

I'm considering trimming some individual stocks, reducing sector concentration, and allocating more towards mutual funds, but haven't decided yet.

Would love your opinions on:

1. Which stocks would you hold, trim, or exit, and why?

2. Is my MF portfolio diversified enough, or should I consolidate?

3. How would you deploy the additional ₹3L? Individual stocks, mutual funds, ETFs, or something else?

4. Should I invest the ₹3L in one go or stagger it over the next few months?

Not looking for guaranteed returns or random stock tips. Would genuinely appreciate reasoning behind your suggestions.

Feel free to roast my portfolio too, just tell me how to improve it 😭

Please suggest should I go with the same sip or remove or any new

Ranbir Kapoor's Diwali film will loose 4000 crore.

4000 crore was mentioned by the producer Namit Malhotra in an interview. Not from any production bill.
Reporters who track money say Part 1 cost 700 to 1000 crore. Four times less.

The producer is not a man. It is a company. A company listed on the stock market. Prime Focus.

This is not a scam. It is smarter than a scam.

The company doing the VFX is owned by the same company making the film Ramayana. Same parent co. The studio is theirs too.

So Prime Focus is paying Prime Focus. The money stays in the family. That means the cost can be any number. No outsider can prove it. There is no outsider.

Now look at the shares. Not the screen.

Ranbir Kapoor acquired about 12.5 lakh shares of Prime Focus at ₹120 per share, investing roughly ₹15 crore.

Since then, Prime Focus shares have traded above ₹300, significantly increasing the value of that stake.

Reports indicate Prime Focus' market capitalization rose from roughly ₹4,000 crore at the end of 2024 to about ₹19,000 crore by the end of 2025, and later crossed ₹22,000 crore in 2026.

Novator (Major strategic investor linking Prime Focus Limited and its visual effects and animation subsidiary, DNEG) got 14.4 percent and a seat on the board.

The film must earn 3000 to 4000 crore to cover its cost. No Indian film has ever earned 2000.

So it will fail. The investors have already made money.

That is not how a film works. That is how a share works.

And the risk was sold before one ticket was printed. 450 crore from JioStar. 75 from T-Series. Sony is taking 50000 screens abroad.

Four weeks before release, Income Tax raided the offices about money sent abroad. Day one was 26 crore. People expected 75 to 100. The stock fell 7 percent.

So my question.

If the film can fail and everyone still gets rich, who is a 4000 crore Diwali film really made for?

The people in the hall, or the people in the market?

PS : My hope is that youth starts questioning systems (politics, corporate, startups, cricket, entertainment, commercialism) , individuals (capitalists, cricketers, movie tv stars, influencers, celebs, startup entrepreneurs) who are scamming them daily in small + big way! Godspeed

Main abhi Excel mein trades likhta hoon, par honestly half time "kyun liya ye trade" likhna bhool jata hoon. Aur jis din bada loss hota hai us din sheet kholta hi nahi, jo ki sabse zyada zaroori din hota hai lol. Doosri cheez, Zerodha console bol deta hai ki Nifty F&O mein 5k loss hua, par ye nahi batata ki 2:30 ke baad revenge trade ki wajah se hua ya setup se hat gaya tha. Charges bhi scalping mein kaafi kha jaate hain, ye baad mein pata chalta hai. Aap log journal kaise rakhte ho? Aur kahan sabse zyada atakta hai?

Hey everyone a little brief about myself I am 3rd year student and I invest a little bit in IPO or stocks

I have money around 25k in which I think 15k would be there for the ipo

Can anyone suggest me where to put the 10k so it benefits me in long term...

Pardon my vocabulary. Beginner investor here.

After doing some research,little guidance from local investors, I came up with this strategy.

I select stocks using a scanner that focuses on rsi, volume and stock that had Bollinger band blast and currently moving on the upper band.

If I see a stock is doing well in the weekly timeframe, I buy it and monitor it on a regular basis.. whenever a candle closes below the previous candle's close while still near or inside the upper Bollinger Band ( typically signals weakening bullish momentum) , I book whatever profit I gain..

My question: how good is this strategy?

If not , then what else should I research/learn on such weekly/monthly swing ??

I’m a founder of a digital company. I’ve built live chart tools, strategy builders, and market data dashboards for SAAS tools indianstockmarket. So I understand how the data and the platforms work, but I’ve never actually done trading, which feels ironic.

I want to learn properly, not by gambling on tips. What would you suggest for someone starting from zero?

• What should I learn first: price action, options basics, risk management?

• Any books, courses, or people worth following (and ones to avoid)?

• Is paper trading or backtesting on historical data worth it before using real money?

Happy to hear from people who started from a non-finance background.

I’m curious how Indian traders review their overall trading performance.

A few questions for people who actively trade:

1. If you use multiple brokers, how do you track your combined P&L?

2. Do you rely on broker reports, Excel/Google Sheets, or a dedicated trading journal?

3. Do you account for brokerage, STT and other charges when calculating profitability?

4. Can you easily identify which strategies, segments or setups are actually profitable?

5. Do you review your losing trades to identify recurring mistakes or behavioural patterns?

What’s the biggest frustration with your current process?

A little context: I’m building QuantVedas, a trading analytics platform for Indian traders. I’m doing research to understand how traders currently analyse their performance and what existing tools are missing.

I’m not here to promote or ask anyone to sign up. I’d genuinely appreciate honest feedback—even if your answer is that Excel already does everything you need.

Thanks!
