I’m Anugrah, Co-founder, smallcase. Before smallcase, I was working with Nomura - a leading Japanese investment bank, designing equity and thematic strategies for global institutional clients.
Even though history has clearly shown equities are the highest yielding asset class in the long term, a lot of people still prefer traditional investment products like Gold and real estate. We at smallcase are trying to make this shift happen by building low-cost, transparent and easier to understand investment solutions.
So, yeah, ask me anything about valuations and I’ll try to answer to the best of my knowledge.
I do have a question for you: What are the 3 most important and defining parameters/ratios to consider when you value a stock for investment? And what is the ideal duration of a long-term investment?
Besides analyzing Quantitative parameters such as high Earnings Yields and high Return on Assets, and analyzing Qualitative parameter such as robust management, do you see any more scope to analyze the stocks or am I suffice? As I am getting very satisfied return just by applying those parameters. Here is a proof :- http://shareboss.in/sabyasachi/portfolios/Huge-Multibagger-Potential.
Disclaimer:- I do invested those stocks and planning to keep those for a at least 3 years of time horizon.

Undervalued describes a security for which the market price is considered too low for its fundamentals. Some metrics used to evaluate whether a security is undervalued are P/E ratio, growth potential, balance sheet health, etc. It is the opposite of overvalued.
A stock may become undervalued in one of two ways. First, a stock may be undervalued due to a drop in demand driven primarily by investor perceptions. If a drop in price is not justified by the issuing company’s actual financial status as manifest by its fundamentals and analyst growth projections, the security could be undervalued.
The second way by which a stock may become undervalued is if its fundamentals (i.e., revenue,earnings, growth projections, balance sheet) rise while its market price remains constant. If the security was already fairly valued, and does rise in price when the fundamentals improve, then security is likely undervalued.
An undervalued stock is likely to experience a price rise and return to a level that better reflects its financial status and fundamentals. Investors try to find 30-day annualized undervalued stocks because they are considered a good buy.
Overvalued describes a security for which the market price is considered too high for its fundamentals. Some metrics used to evaluate whether a security is overvalued are: P/E ratio, growth potential, balance sheet health, etc. A stock may become overvalued in one of two ways. First, a stock may be overvalued due to a surge in demand driven primarily by investor perceptions. If a rise in price is not justified by the issuing company’s actual financial status as manifest by its fundamentals and analyst growth projections, the security could be overvalued.
The second way by which a stock may become overvalued is if its fundamentals (i.e. revenue,earnings, growth projections, balance sheet, etc.) decline while its market price remains constant. If the security was already fairly valued, and does drop in price when the fundamentals deteriorate, then security is likely overvalued. A stock which is considered to be overvalued is likely to experience a price decline and return to a level which better reflects its financial status and fundamentals. Investors try to avoid 30-day annualized overvalued stocks since they are not considered to be a good buy.
pincon lifestyle and pincon spirits have been hitting 52wk low because their chairperson mr.roy had been arrested in a multi crore scam for illegeally collecting money from investors .
it is not just past financial performance and valuation of a company that will push up its’ share price. Market’s expectation of future performance of the company is an extremely important factor that affects share performance and if market is concerned that the company will not be able to perform as well as it did in the past, share performance will suffer. So if a company with good fundamentals is undervalued, the first thing to check is what are the future projections. If your research proves that future projections are also good and believable, then its a good investment opportunity.
