Indian stock markets have witnessed the rise and downfalls of many investors. Many were involved in scams and others faced heavy losses. The stock market is known to make people rich in a small time frame and poor over a night’s sleep. The top investors in the market today are not traders but they have long term plans while holding pr buying a script. They plan to take controlling interest in the company as well sometimes. These investors look at the market trend and pick the losers which have the potential of becoming future Nifty50 stocks.
The major factor that is common in all the top investors is that they never ever invest big into Nifty50 stocks. Their major holdings are into mid cap or small cap shares and up to some extent in companies which a common person has never heard about anytime in his or her market career.
The investors balance their portfolio with holdings across various sectors so that if one sector suffers heavy losses the gain from others settles their losses. Hence They believe in diversifying their portfolio and balancing the risk factor of it. They have holdings in more than 10 to 20 companies but their major holdings are limited to 3 to 4 companies. In today’s time the best investors in India include Radhakrishna Damani, Rakesh Jhunjhunwala, Vijay Kedia, Raamdeo Agarwal etc.

The main lesson learnt for becoming a successful investor is that one should not pick up NIFTY50 companies but search for hidden gems in the market. Hidden gems are the one’s which would get converted into the NIFTY50 of the future. The financial analysis of the company’s balance sheets and statistical analysis of the company’s financial ratios is a very important factor that one investor should be aware of.
Also investors should look at the larger picture. They should focus on the returns available in the long run and not get carried away or upset with short term losses. The major lesson is to balance the portfolio holdings and keep searching for better shares. More the diversification in portfolio less is the individual’s risk resulting from market uncertainties. Also one should believe in the quality of stocks which have great upside potential rather than to opt for quantity of shares.
