Bharat Bhushan: I have bought 40,000 shares of NBCC at an average rate of Rs 105 apiece with a long term perspective. Should I hold, average or exit?
Brijesh Singh: It is not advisable for one to average at the current levels. I would suggest one to keep a stop loss of Rs 58 and to hold on to the stock. Use the gains in the stock to make an exit from the stock.
Shiva Kumar: Which mid-cap stock has strong fundamentals and can grow to become a multi-bagger?
Sharmila Joshi: I would suggest Ashok Leyland. NBCC, too, is a good stock with its own niche. Rs 63 would be a good price to enter the stock.
Ram Hegde: L&T has started its up move. Any specific target to look out for this is for August series?

Rangarajan Balakrishnan: I own shares in Avadh Sugar & Energy Ltd., which I bought at an average price of Rs 389 apiece. Should I hold, average, or exit?
