Sorry Honey, I invested in Stocks today!

If you are among the rare species of Indians who invest in stock markets, you would be thoroughly battered by market conditions of these days and probably severely doubting your ability to pick stocks and invest in stocks, instead of Gold or Real Estate.

Not only that, your better half would be extremely furious with you by now for sinking money in this market, which has essentially been in a Bear grip in past 3 years, and has gone nowhere but south.

To add insult to injury, if you are a Warren Buffet fan, you would be dying to pick MORE good quality stocks in this heavily discounted market and if you act on your instinct and analysis, you would definitely have to apologize to your family every evening, because whatever you pick, would crash by 5% the next day itself.

To add to your misery, here is a list of some good quality battered stocks, you can buy them, but apologizing to your better half part is something that i leave solely to you :)




There is no dearth of good quality deep value stocks in Indian markets today. Here is a short list of Dark Horse Stocks and their brief analysis:



  1. Dhunseri Petrochem and Tea
  2. Titagarh Wagons
  3. Hyderabad Industries
  4. Jain Irrigation
  5. Voltas


Dhunseri Petrochem and Tea

Dhunseri is essentially a Tea production and marketing firm and also engages in two other businesses - Greenfield PET rasin factory and development of IT infrastructure. The firm is a growth tiger and has grown revenues from 66 crores in 2008 to more than 1900 crores in year 2012.
Where most of smallcap, midcap stocks are bleeding currently in red, Dhunseri is profitable in four out of last five quarters and improved topline numbers consistently. Firm is a regular dividend paying company, with 45% dividend declared in 2012 itself.

Book Value of Dhunseri is high at 213 Rs and current market price is only at 88 Rs. The firm is available at paltry market cap of Rs 308 crores only. A good value buy.

Titagarh Wagons (TWL)

Railway stocks got battered severely due to lack of any new announcements in railway budget, and fiscal austerity by Indian government.

However, this is a good opportunity to pick deep value railway stocks, because the country will always need growth and development in railways. Titagarh is a leading private sector wagon manufacturer in India.

TWL is engaged in the business of manufacturing Railway Wagons & EMUs, Bailey Bridges, Heavy Earth Moving and Mining Equipment, Steel and SG iron castings etc. TWL also manufactures certain products for the Indian defence establishment, such as special wagons, shelters and other engineering equipments.

Looking at number, sales numbers are stable from past 5 quarters and showing a uptrend. This is a low debt firm, and regular dividend paying with 80% dividend in 2012. Promoters hold a strong 53.1% holding in the firm with general public having a small 9% share.

Stock is at yearly lows of Rs 165, and market cap is at paltry 332 crores only. A good value buy.


Hyderabad Industries(HIL)

Available at paltry market cap of Rs 280 crores and near to yearly lows of Rs 373 as we speak.
HIL is another deep value pick.

Firm has paid regular dividends and paid 50% in 2012 itself. At current price of Rs 61, it is close to its Book Value and is a good dark horse to bet on, considering its market leadership in its business segments.


Voltas

Firm is regular dividend paying and paid 120% dividend in 2012 itself. Promoter shareholding is low at 30%.
