Edited excerpts from the conversation:

Sarabjeet Sidhu: I bought 2,850 shares of JTEKT India Ltd. at Rs 106.5 apiece with a long-term view. What is your view on the stock?

Dharmesh Kant: You can hold the stock with a three-five year long-term view since you have already bought the stock but companies such as Bosch and Bharat Forge might be a better bet in the auto ancillaries business.

Ravi Shankar: I bought Tata Elxsi at Rs 1,050 with a six-month view. Should I hold On to the stock?

Aditya Agarwala: You should hold on to the stock an raise your stop loss to Rs 1,260. Look for a target of Rs 1,350-1,400 in the short term.

Rivek Kanojia: I had bough Sintex Industries at Rs 22.65 per share and intend to hold it for five years. Should I keep the stock?

Dharmesh Kant: You should avoid the stock in its present circumstances. Take a hit and exit the investment. Would suggest other more direct construction players such as Ahluwalia Contracts (India), Dilip Buildcon and Ashoka Buildcon.

Yash Baroti: I have Tata Motors’shares that I bought at Rs 403.31, Tata Steel shares that I bought at Rs 638.18, and Zee Entertainment shares that I bought at Rs 582.95. I can hold them for one-two years. What is your view on the stocks?

Dharmesh Kant: Hold Tata Motors with target of Rs 650. I would suggest booking out of Tata Steel and entering JSW Steel or SAIL. Zee Entertainment can be held on to with a long-term view.

Prasenjeet Chowdhary: Is this the right time to enter Tech Mahindra?

Aditya Agarwala: I would suggest waiting for the levels of Rs 675-670 and we expect a correction soon.

Nikhil: What is your technical view on Cadila Healthcare?

Aditya Agarwala: If you already hold the stock and are sitting on a profit, it would be a good time to book your profits. If you are looking to make an investment, you should enter at a price of Rs 408-410 after which the uptrend should extend to Rs 445 per share.

Piyush Pradeep Sarode: I have Jamna Auto Industries and Pidilite Industires with a four-year view. Should I hold on to the stocks?

Dharmesh Kant: You should hold on to both the stocks as they are multi-baggers if kept with a four-six year view.

Manam: I bought Lupin at Rs 908.6 for intra-day trade. What is your view on the stock?

Aditya Agarwala: Can book profits at current level for an intra-day trade.

Vishvesh Iyer: I bought Ajanta Pharma at Rs 1,040. Should I hold on to it?

Aditya Agarwala: Hold the stock with a target of Rs 1,150-1,175. There is more room for upside.
