Investment question: since there r so many stocks, are there any basic filters u suggest to narrow down scrips and then do analysis on these scrips?

See this not the ultimate answer to your query, but I will tell you what I do, may be you can follow it or modify and follow it.

  • I go only for Nifty Stocks/Scrips (which comprises of Nifty50 - the 'A' Group Stocks) 
  • I go for evergreen stocks like RIL/Infosys/SBI/TATA Steel etc.
  • I see for high volume/liquidity in the particular scrip. Also, Open Interest.

See whether post here helps you.

I have done this exercise and filtered upto 100 stocks based on rigorous blacklisting of not good stocks.

I am not finding time to drill down further.
