My suggestion would be:
Reliance
Axis Bank (Not sure why no one added it though it is a consistent performer)
HDFC Bank
BHEL
Success in not final and failure is not fatal, it is the courage to continue that counts.

BHEL is a definate, even now:

Momentum in execution progress maintained: Revenues for the quarter rose

29% to Rs 1355 bn mainly driven by the power sector.

BHEL had won sizeable order flows in FY08 and FY09, which is now translating into revenues

I wonder what did the author finally land up doing? I am also facing the same situation currently, and would definitely be interested in knowing the final resolution.

From my individual perspective, I am investing in a few Large-cap Diversified funds as it provides the breadth and diversification. From a specific stock perspective, I am looking at specific sectors and looking a few companies in those sectors.

I am currently looking at IT (Wipro is my current pick) and Pharma (Biocon). I presume one would keep track of the investment and re-adjust on a periodic basis (probably once in a year)

For long term investment focus exclusively on the RoE of the companies you intend to buy.

Hello Basantji,

Thanks for the very valuable advice. I was focusing only on PE (EPS), Company Profile and previous EPS growth patterns to base my decisions.

After your post, I went and checked the RoE for Biocon and Wipro based on Mar10 figures and found them to be Rs. 63 and Rs. 143 respectively. Can you please guide me on how to interpret these numbers and base my further decisions?
