Subject: Basants Corner - Finally Here!
Date Posted: 01/Nov/2011 at 12:21pm
Guys, this is the url for Basants corner:

http://www.theequitydesk.com/basantscorner/

1) You can register on this site the payment gateway is installed. In case you have made payments please indicate that on the form.

2) Though I have a list of stocks ready they are in inactive mode i.e not visible to the user. Once you register I will have to activate your account and then only you would get access to the segment where stocks are listed which in any case are in inactive mode now.

3) Reason for (2) above is that I am facing serious issues on alignment and have website people tell me that it will be fixed soon. I am a bit reluctant to release data unless it makes for easy reading.

4) Once we make the stocks public PLEASE do not go and rush to buy them. Some of them may be illquid new names so any attempt to chase prices will be detrimental to all. There is no need to chase prices if stocks go up we will wait.

We will make the names public ONLY AFTER MARKET HOURS so no ones get any undue advantage and that will be the norm ALWAYS.

5) One segment is not working and we are on the job to set it through. I guess it should be done in less then a week.

6) Finally a Big Thank you to all of you for the faith and trust. I am sure we will be able to carve out a mutually profitable relationship.

In case of any issues please send me an email at equitydesk at gmail . com or I will respond ASAP.

Basantji,
 
Just checked your corner. One query to help me take decision on joining:
 
Pantaloon has so far been your biggest multiplier. But Pantaloon never met one of your criterion for top ten - free cash flow positive. Infact, pantaloon has always been and still is not only FCF negative but also negative on operating CF. From what I have leart at TED, negative Operating CF is a strict no no.

I sold some of my loss making holdings to pay for Basant's corner (as i'm a small investor and my networth is not big). Thanks to you i sold them else i would  have been holding them hoping for a bounce back. Clap

Can we upgrade from basic to gold package at later date ?

Date Posted: 01/Nov/2011 at 2:22pm
Actually I might stop the Gold in case there are too many people because it is a time consuming process.

Activation will happen after 4.00 pm today, please bear with me till then.

Meanwhile we will start with 4-5 stocks in basant's Top Ten and increase it over the next week to 10.

Basantji, If Gold package is stopped then will you upgrade basic to gold ?
what will be the subscription package then for basic? i'm totally confused between which package to choose. I was going for basic considering that your portfolio will be reflected in that section.

Cry

You can find a way to solve this instead of closing the option. You can restrict number of questions per subscriber per year, keep the option of not replying for trivial questions (difficult to define this though) etc. etc.

Sir... 9K seems to be very reasonable for the full service... Can't you upgrade Basic to Gold, I mean have a single service and put everything into it... I know you have been doing a great job, but think of small investors like me..
 
You can put a limit of 2questions/user/week limit instead of closing the whole questionaire section.

yes basantji, plz keep the limit on number of questions a user can ask so that you can answer all the questions. Also will it be possible if we purchase basic package now and upgrade to gold after 1-2 months?

In most cases. where stocks are same, the questions are also similar.

rather than not have the section on Ask Basant, limiting questions is much better option.

Also, by publishing everyones questions on the forum,duplicate queries will be avoided.

more questions and answers for everyone will add to the richness of the corner.

Hello,

This is to just update that my account appears to have got activated. I could get access to the premium site, though, as mentioned by Shri Basantjee it would be updated in due course( 8 PM & onwards). In case it hasn't happened with some, the dateline is after 6 PM, so kindly don't be worried. 

Payment process, response and activation process was smooth and responsive. I should appreciate the patience of Basantjee responding to most, though some queries look superfluous and repetitive. The answer to some queries lie in post just few pages earlier.

Some seniors or Teds who are following the process regularly could chip in by providing information as already done by few. They always stand for correction by the Master.

We are commencing another journey of togetherness in investment finance that would be benevolent and beneficial as well.  

Three Cheers!

Hi Basantji,
 
If a session to the site is Inactive for some period of time, will it automatically logout? If not, it should logout  -  say after 1 hour of Inactivity( may be configurable by end user).
 
How this will help me is I login from office during office hours and when at home I login from home. Say I forget to logout when leaving for office from home, after one hour  if it automatically logs out, it will not require the account to be supended and write an email to you to unlock it.  Just a thought to save your time. 
 
OR are there any other suggestions to take care of such a thing which will happen daily with me(Monday to Friday).
 
Regards,
Vishal

I understand the mis-usage part, I will try to remember to logout.  If you have any other suggestions, let me know.

Further, Logging out an Inactive session can still be useful from the website performance point of view.

Also, although I don't think we have such low integrity people on TED, but still we may dis-allow copy/paste from this site......

Dear Friends,
 
Basants Corner is finally here
 
http://theequitydesk.com/forum/%3cA%20href= - http://www.theequitydesk.com/basantscorner/default.asp  
 
We will start in a couple of hours today. Please note that you will be charged for your payment for 365 days of usage so even if you have paid on Saturday you will be debited today. if one section is not starting today but in 3 more days then this wil be chaged not from today but from when it actually starts for you.
 
One sincere request is not to bid up the prices tomorrow morning. that way you guys will only chase each other. markets are uncertain. if some stock opens abnormally higher tomorrow think twice before buying it.
 
Over a period time our stock picks will get diluted and leaked and that will only be bad for us because it will not hjelp us put in incremental money for work. It is in our interest that the stocks listed here are not discussed on google groups and chats. that way it will enable us to buy more.
 
Some of the stocks that I wil be introducing over the next few days are small caps which have potential to become large caps at least that is the hope!
 
I will try and inform all Gold members whose payments I have received and accounts activated tomorrow before markets open by email as to where intend to invest with the subscription money. Just give me some time I have been really busy and never worked like this for years!
 
Good luck to you all! Let us make this a very profitable venture for each of us.
 
 
Regards,
 
Basant Maheshwari

I tried to make the payment this afternoon online but somehow the direct bank debit option was not working with me.
I will do a interbank transfer tomorrow, once it is done should I refer to my failed transaction ID (no. 76), as it has all my login and contact details?

Just to confirm, how do I know that my account has been activated? I can login to the new Url and can see the default content under the various sections like "Basant's top 10" etc.

The activation process is still on for the ones who have paid up. We will list two companies at 8.00pm both small caps and then one more after an hour at 9.00 pm.

It could take about 15 minutesmore then scheduled time because I would like to double check for payments and activate all accounts before we start.

The mass mailer different for the two packages has not yet been set up so I am using the forum pages. it should be up tomorrow morning or whenever I will write and inform about the stocks that I will buy with this money.

In the scramble to set up things our Vijay Bhattar of Cyberax has not got any sleep but he has promised to set the balance things up latest by Monday.

No, this facility is only with the Ask Basant section where questions and my answers will be put up for viewing.



Additionally my personal buys and sells will only be reflected in the Ask Basant section.

The other segments will not have my personal buy and sell trades.
 
Basantji, in my opinion, you should provide your personal buy/sell trades even to basic members. The Ask Basant section should be solely for those who want queries answered. That way, your concern about too many gold registrations will also be addressed.

Have introduced two stocks today, depending on market conditions will put in more tomorrow.

No more for today. Markets are uncertain and we will try and capitalize on that

Dear Friends,

 

Basants Corner is finally here</A>

 

http://theequitydesk.com/forum/%3cA%20href= - http://www.theequitydesk.com/basantscorner/default.asp  

 

We will start in a couple of hours today. Please note that you will be charged for your payment for 365 days of usage so even if you have paid on Saturday you will be debited today. if one section is not starting today but in 3 more days then this wil be chaged not from today but from when it actually starts for you.

 

One sincere request is not to bid up the prices tomorrow morning. that way you guys will only chase each other. markets are uncertain. if some stock opens abnormally higher tomorrow think twice before buying it.

 

Over a period time our stock picks will get diluted and leaked and that will only be bad for us because it will not hjelp us put in incremental money for work. It is in our interest that the stocks listed here are not discussed on google groups and chats. that way it will enable us to buy more.

 

Some of the stocks that I wil be introducing over the next few days are small caps which have potential to become large caps at least that is the hope!

 

I will try and inform all Gold members whose payments I have received and accounts activated tomorrow before markets open by email as to where intend to invest with the subscription money. Just give me some time I have been really busy and never worked like this for years!

 

Good luck to you all! Let us make this a very profitable venture for each of us.

 

 

Regards,

 

Basant Maheshwari

For the ones whose accounts are not yet activated it is because the payment process is still in transit. We will try and update the activation as soon as the payment is received.

There are three money receipts for Rs 15,000 which are lying unidentifid. So in case your payment has been executed yesterday or day before and you have not been confirmed by me please send me a transaction ID so i can reconcile the same.

In case you have already sent me the transaction ID then you need not send it again.

The stocks that have been introduced today do not mean that they are No. 1 and No.2 in top ten. these rankings will change once the new stocks come in.

A question that is being asked is about Star ratings which indicates the following:

Basant Sir,
 
What is basic packeage and what is gold package? I somehow missed it even though I have been following this thread since it started.
 
Only package I am aware of is that 15000 rs per year package. I will also go though this thread again. But if it is not too much please provide the link here.

Send me an email. I will delete the old account and you can register afresh.

Meanwhile several new people who have paid are being activated in about one hour.

Some payments have been received but i can't find the sender. If you have paid for over 2 days and not yet been activated please quote your transaction ID with your Name so that we can identify the people who have paid.

Thanks a lot basantji. I have registered and completed the payment after you deleted my old account and my new account got activated in 10 seconds after i was redirected from CC avenue payment gateway. That was really fast

Several people are joining in some have paid while the others have had their payments and it is in the pipeline. In about less then 15 days we will have the top 10 ready and then we can add slowly.

You can also write to me through email for queries like these!

Basantji:

If a TED XI stock is not in Basants top ten, figuratively it gives the impression that TED XI stocks are no longer as promising as they were before.Your top ten are different now.

( i know your TED XI are closed and now only TED II or TED1 exist)

Although you may be wanting to avoid duplicity, but if i had limited funds and had to chose b/w a Basant top ten and a TED 1(II) , what should i do

Yes.

Top Ten will have the ideas that I think are supposed to do well over time . They will change with earnings and valuations but these will necessarily not be the stocks on Basants Corner that will provide the highest returns because returns could come from cheap stocks also but they can't be held for a very long time.

What i understand as a newbie, is that top 10  will have long term wealth creating stocks.Stocks that help to prepare for marriage, children, retirement and afterlife. Like all stocks they will have a lifespan but lifespan will be more like a few years.

The Current buy list may have some CHEAP stocks that could give higher returns than the Top 10 but again their life span could be less.

In all this top 10, and Universe, we still need to abide by the basic principle  which is a have concentrated portfolio!

Basantji, please try and incorporate the concentrated portfolio(which is so unique to TED) aspect in your corner in  whatever ways you can.

Maybe you have emphasize the best of each lot .best of top 10, best of the Universe and best of Current buy list.
