Those were my initial days in Indian markets. After researching in about 350 stocks, I zeroed in on this one and at that time this was 80% of my portfolio.

My only point is if you have large investment then looking for dividends makes sense.Good to have a portfolio of dividend giving stocks and growth stocks.

My salary was not really big. My goal was to build a pension plan out of it. I was super impressed by Warren Buffet's investment philosophy. I really don't have a big portfolio.

I used to save more than half of my monthly salary during those days and buy VST at the prevailing market prices. Most of my money was in VST. I think these days people call such approach "Concentrated Investing".

One thing I need to alert you: You will get such opportunities only when everything around is depressing and Congress is in power. If Modi is in power you will not get those stock prices to build a good pension fund. These days I buy Government of India Bonds.

Why not start a new thread on Warren Buffet way of investments, which Indian Stocks qualify as per his critaria, how to build a pension plan etc....it will be great opportunity to learn from someone who has practiced these principles and invested accordingly....1-2 current case studies to explain the principles will be useful. Many are keen to learn this....

About a decade ago ,on my birthday ,one of my trader friends presented to me a book called " Buffet Way" ... ( think that was the title) I tried to read it many times but I could not go beyond a few pages and was not able to apply those principles to Indian stocks at current times.....my shortcomings surely....so need someone to simplify things in Buffet way of investing...

That was my first book on Warren Buffett. But what I consider ultimate is his annual letters to shareholders.
