Foreword

Capital Ideas Online interviewed legendary investor Mr. Kisanbhai R. Choksey (fondly known as Kisan bhai), Chairman of Kisan Ratilal Choksey Shares & Securities Pvt. LTD, a member of the BSE and NSE. Kisanbhai has been in the stock market now for more than three and a half decades with an extensive experience in Broking, Investment Research and Financial Consulting. If people want to improve their investing skills, it has to help to study how the Master does it. Capital Ideas Online is proud to present this short work (transcripts of an interview with him), which outlines his philosophy, his techniques, and of course his recommendations.

The full transcripts of the interview are available below. We hope that you find the same readable, informative and useful. Whilst we would not like to take any responsibility for investment decisions that you may take on the basis of this interview, we would invite any comments that you may find would enrich the quality and perspective of this work.

We would like to thank Mr. Utpal Sheth and Mr. Navin Agarwal of Insight Asset Management for the time, energy, enthusiasm and commitment that they have demonstrated.

The interview was conducted on the 28th of March 2000 and it is quite likely that current market prices of companies that Kisan bhai recommended differ, in some cases significantly, from prices on that day. So, to be fair, we have listed herein below the names of companies along with their closing prices on the Bombay Stock Exchange as on the day of the interview.
