    In this video, we'll explore 8 investing red flags that can help you detect early signs of trouble, making your investments more secure and turning you into an informed, vigilant, and successful investor. The 8 investing mistakes are as follows:
    1. Delayed Financial Reporting: This not only impacts investor confidence but also stock prices, as demonstrated by cases like Balaji Amines and Byju's.
    2. Excessive Director Remuneration: Section 197 of the Companies Act specifies limits on director and manager remuneration. When companies exceed these limits, as seen with Sun TV Networks and National Peroxide, it's a red flag
    3. Auditor Resignations: For example, Deloitte quitting as the auditors for Manpasand Beverages led to a 55% share price drop.
    4. Pledged Shares: If the pledged share ratio increases sharply, it raises concerns, as seen with Max Financial Services.
    5. Abnormally High Dividend Payout: While high dividends are appealing, an excessively generous payout can signal underlying issues like financial distress, lack of growth opportunities, or earnings manipulation. Vedanta Limited's case is a striking example.
    6. Corporate Governance Issues: Gaps in corporate governance, such as insider trading or accounting irregularities, can severely impact a company's stock performance, as shown by cases like Brightcom, Lux Industries, and Aurobindo Pharma.
    7. Frequent Fundraising: Frequent capital infusion can be a sign of financial instability, dilution of existing shareholders' stakes, and increased debt levels, as demonstrated by Manpasand Beverages
    8. Sudden Increase in Debt: A substantial and sudden increase in a company's long-term borrowing is a major red flag, as seen with cases like Kingfisher Airlines, DLF, Suzlon, Moser Baer and Pantaloon.

    Congratulations Shankar on 100k subscribers...I am sure you will reach 1M as well...Just a query regarding today's video, you mentioned pledged shares being a red flag, but if you see the REITs then most of them have high pledged promoter stakes then should one avoid the REITs altogether?

    • @shankarnath

    Sir please make a video on index pe investing.
    Per month sip is varied like pe falls 5 % ( due to increase in earnings or fall of nifty) we increase investment by 10 %
    We can adopt several strategies to gauge this like having a pe range as normal like 18 to 22 and then average fall in pe we increase sip by 5 % and vice versa and several other strategies.

    Sir if possible can you make a video on the type of tax harvesting wherein we sell each of our holdings after holding it for over an year and buying it again on the same day so as to save on LTCG taxes over a long term period. This is easy in case of mutual funds because we can sell the units which have been more than a year but not so easy in case of direct stocks as mostly people don't invest in direct stocks via SIPs. So it would be great if you could make this video on how to do this in case of direct stocks

    • @shankarnath
      @shankarnath  7 місяців тому

      Hi, why do you say it is difficult in stocks? If I bought 100 shares on 1st Jan 2022 and sold on 20th Feb 2023, then it's LTCG and had I sold on 15th Nov 2022, then it's STCG. Maybe I didn't understand your context, can you please detail out the query a bit more?

    • @alexstanley4684
      @alexstanley4684 7 місяців тому

      I think in case of direct stocks when we may have bought 100 shares at different dates then selling and buying at different dates may attract additional taxes when selling as well as buying again. But in mutual funds expense ratio would be same regardless of how many times we buy and sell. Also not all retail investors would buy that much quantity of stocks of 1 company at a time

      @shankarnath  7 місяців тому

      @@alexstanley4684 Hmm .. I'm sorry, I'm still not getting the context. I have bought many shares in the past and have never faced a problem. Infact, a platform like Zerodha actually tells investors which ones have crossed 1 year of holding. Anyways, sorry for not being of much help here.

You don't need to be sorry as first of all you are not responsible for answering these type of queries but it is so nice of you that you are taking out some time for this. So thank you very much. May be I am unable to ask this in a way in which I should have

    • @alexstanley4684
      @alexstanley4684 7 місяців тому

      I think one more thing that I just remembered is that in case of direct stocks when we sell it after holding for a year and then buy it on the same day there is a possibility we might buy it at a higher price than what we sold it at because of continuous price changes but in case of mutual funds NAV is declared at the end of the day so selling and buying would certainly be at the same price

    Request to make a detailed video on SLPW plan of NPS which I think can be a very good source of regular tax free income

    • @shankarnath
      @shankarnath  7 місяців тому

      Thanks for the suggestion

    • @Traderking1990
      @Traderking1990 7 місяців тому

      I think SLPW is a bad choice because bonds are market linked. It is better to withdraw 60% of your corpus in one go rather than subjecting it to market risks. May be if NPS had a option to invest in fixed income schemes like bank deposits then SLPW would have made sense.

    • @Traderking1990
      @Traderking1990 7 місяців тому

      Also 40% of NPS corpus mandatorily to be used to buy an annuity plan which is taxable according to slab. SLPW is applicable only for the remaining 60% corpus, which is already tax free. Hence I don't understand the so-called tax benefits that you pointed out.
