Where to invest in Indian stocks ?

If you're new stick to index funds.

Max out 80C options like ppf/elss if you're in a higher tax bracket

Invest to manage risk to your money, not for returns. Invest to meet goals, not for returns.

Low risk = Government bonds. High risk = Penny stocks.

If you are a noob, invest in a single index fund and don't keep tinkering with it. Continue frequent investments & let the fund be for 15+ years for you start seeing massive compounding kick in.

Balance equity with debt exposure - gold + epf + ppf.

Thats enough for a majority of people to build a massive networth.

My friends and I plan to pool money to subscribe to an advisory service. Let me know if you are interested

I have been following an app called Waya and have found reasonable success. Might give it a try.

Microfinance

There's a lack of undervalued stocks in the market currently. Personally, I'd go with bluechip private banks (HDFC, ICICI, etc.) and some PSBs

Just find a good smallcase and buy. No point trying to beat folks who do this full time.

Invest in Federal Bank and forget for 10 years, your future self will thank me 😇
