Please list the top 10 shares with strong fundermentals (20-50% return in 12 months)

Please list the top 10 shares with strong fundermentals and preferably the price per share less that Rs. 100/-.

Realistically I am looking to make 20-50% profit in 12 months.

I am sure this post will help a lot of viewers of this excellent Website.

Great Job admin team on the work put on this website so far...

None of earth can point shares that would guarantee you profits 20 - 50% in future..

If you're new to CSE go for some IPO to startwith that MAY give you some profit..

JKH was selling above 350 at one time and currently 290. JKH, COMB, DOCK, SPEN, yet to perform after a decline in November 2010 despite producing good financials. BRWN, DIST, SAMB can go up 20 percent. No body can predict accurately however, SAMP, JKH and COMB were heavily traded these days. Liquidity of these shares makes them safe investments.

High COMB.N turnover today is an early indication of expected better performances in the near future.

Turnover (Rs.) 278,666,816.00
Share Volume 1,032,000

Difficult to stick to your below 100 requirement & pick up good stocks & nobody can guarantee 20% - 50% gains with the prevailing trends in the market, but I think following shares have high potential to go up in the coming months & years,

As an advice I can tell you one thing, do not try to get high returns within few months, Go for fundamentally sound stocks & keep them for long term (at least 1-2 years)

Do study before you take a decision.

well its in deed very happy to see that some of the members have hope on the long term investments

Most of the shares listed above are popular and will do well if the economy and the respective sector does well.

But how safe are they? Will the share price survive a downturn? Strangely, not even one of the above shares features in my portfolio. I guess I am older than most persons on this forum and preservation of capital is more important to me. I have tried to make my portfolio 'recession proof' by identifying undervalued companies.

Are we focusing too much on EPS and PE Ratio? Are we guilty of ignoring net assets per share? Are we overlooking companies with undervalued assets? Think, people!

Well again for me i hold few shares mentioned above, but since u mentioned that none of these features on your portfolio, why don't you share the method you used to identify the stocks if you don't mind, also if you don't mind why don't you u mention a few name of the shares you hold ( don't take it on the wrong way only if you wish just share your thoughts otherwise just ignore it )

I also feel Carg also might bring some reasonable gains in the future.

Why don't you share the method you used to identify the stocks if you don't mind, also if you don't mind why don't you u mention a few name of the shares you hold ( don't take it on the wrong way only if you wish just share your thoughts otherwise just ignore it )

@Gaja: Remember - When you invest in a share, you are part-owner of the company.

Why do we use EPS and PE ratio? To figure out how profitable a company is (on a per share basis) and, assuming constant earnings, how long it would take to earn that profit.
Why? Because if the company makes that kind of profit in future, the future income stream will justify today's price.
PEG Ratio merely refines that approach.

What's the alternative? Try to identify shares whose net assets per share today are close to today's price. For such shares, the 'required EPS' to justify the share price is lower.

Believe it or not, there are profit making companies whose share price is less than its net assets per share. This is unsustainable in the long run.

Due to accounting reasons, net assets per share does not always consider the full value of assets; try to identify such undervalued shares.

I do not want to promote my companies (i.e. the companies in which I am a shareholder) on this forum; I have already mentioned them in previous posts... Think property, think undervalued investment portfolios.

Good thinking Antonym. But we cannot always consider NVPS to identify undervalued shares. If you take companies like CTC, NEST, LLUB has less NVPS. These companies used to give attractive dividends. Hense NVPS is used to be lower. Different players use different techniques to indentify the undervalued stocks. I used consider NVPS before I invest on a share. But my first priority is EPS, PER and PEG then NVPS.

Most of these shares can move upwards during the next 6 months. Investors have started looking for stable, liquid and reliable businesses with good financials, large scale crossings were seen in some of the large cap PLCs mentioned above. Many retailers having burnt their fingers recently look for 20 to 30 percent gain during the next 6 to 12 months. Shares like NDB,LFIN, SPEN,DOCK, AHUN, JKH ,COMB are unlikely to go down as they are selling at the lowest level despite good corporate earnings.

TWOD could do well if there is a good outcome.

To find PEG ratio you need to know company's budget plans , future projects , future incomes & projected profits .
How do you find these ??

it is good to consider NAV in INVESTMENT TRUST companies..............

mark wrote:it is good to consider NAV in INVESTMENT TRUST companies..............

Yes going by market value/nav is best. Most times their profits are unrealized so EPS is not a good yard stick for them.

These are my picks.
