I know one gentleman who held on to Infosys by default because he was lucky enough to loose the certificate in 1994 .Inlieu of this punya he got 1600 shares in 2000 of infosys.

Hi, I am new to the forum, but have been intrested in stocks and shares for a very long time. I just saw you comments about Mphasis in 2006, and hope that you stuck with them, as they seem to have kept their promise and delivered nicely! Well done!

I am very curious to know if there is any investor who bought it when the issue came out and has held on till date. It would be interesting to know.

My father was allotted 150 shares at IPO which have multiplied to 6400 now His initial investment of Rs. 14,250/- in 1993 is worth Rs. 1,79,89,120/- at CMP. He is not willing to let this go... sort of emotionally attached.

Wow that's amazing !! if Infosys IPO would have been in the market now, most of the people would have booked at 5% gains.

It's a 1200 bagger...... So, he must have sold some.
How did he learn about the company in 93 ?
When did he sell a part of it and why ? And why did he decide not to exit it when he sold a part of it ?
I would be grateful if you could provide us these insights.....
