IPO PERFORMANCE REPORT

Honest advice works...

As is the case with all our products, we aim to provide you with research which will help you make investment decisions that will prove to be profitable over the long-term. And long-term for us is atleast a two year investment horizon.

Twenty out of the twenty-five of all the IPO recommendations we have put out since the April 2006 have proved to be correct. Our detailed performance report is given below.

Of these, three recommendations involved real estate stocks. We had an 'apply' for two of them (Parsvanath Developers and Sobha Developers), and an 'avoid' on the third (Akruti Nirman). All our recommendations proved to be correct.

We hasten to add that our IPO recommendations are not geared for those investors who look at exiting on the day the IPO opens or the next day or the day after that or…..

Take a look at our IPO recommendations and the performance thereof. The rows which are marked in Yellow are those recommendations where we have been right.
