Hot Stock Recommendations From the Papers

October 29th, 2009

Normally, I do not scout for stock recommendations from the MSM dailies or the TV. A bit curious (and having a bit extra time to kill!), I took a look around. I found one here today! (29th Oct, 2009).

Just take a look!

Invest in a Company serious about CSR & Corporate Governance

October 31st, 2008

CRISIL launched a 50 scrip index which tracks the top Indian companies on the basis of Corporate Governance, Ethics and Social responsibility. It’s called the ESG Index. (Environment, Social, Governance)

This is what I was looking for when I am looking around for stocks to invest. Infosys, ITC was already in my radar and I am glad to see that they rank right on the top of the 50 scrips. The top ten companies by weight in the index are:

  1. Infosys
  2. ITC
  3. Aditya Birla Nuvo
  4. Dr.Reddy Labs
  5. Wipro
  6. Jubilant Organosys
  7. Axis Bank
  8. GTL
  9. RIL
  10. HUL

See Crisil website for all the details

Mint reports that the first sustainability index that was launched in Brazil in 2005 has given returns of 26%, higher than the 18% offered by the benchmark index of Brazil.

So investors would be rewarded and you also have the satisfaction of investing in a company aware of its social responsibility and scores high on corporate governance.
