 "60 stocks that doubled your money since Budget 2017; HEG up 1500%")
As the markets prepare for Budget 2018, as many as 60 stocks from BSE 500 have doubled investor’s money since the presentation of the last budget on February 1, 2017.
HEG Limited tops this list with a stellar rise of over 1,500%, followed by Indiabulls Ventures that appreciated 1137%. Rain Industries, Venky’s India, Bombay Dyeing, Dilip Buildcon, Vakrangee, NIIT Technologies, Astral Poly Technik and Escorts are some of the other stocks that have gained over 100% during this period, ACE Equity data show. By comparison, the S&P BSE Sensex gained around 30%.

On the other hand, Sintex Industries, Indo Count Industries, Bank of Maharashtra, Siti Networks, Lupin, Multi Commodity Exchange of India (MCX) and Dena Bank are some of the top losers that have slipped between 25 – 72%, data show.
Given the sharp pre-budget rally this time around, most analysts now remain cautious and suggest investors put in fresh money post the event.

“For the current year, markets have been rising (first in Oct 2017 and then in Jan 2018) without any significant corrections. Further Market volatility in the pre-budget period has been the lowest as compared to the past 10 budgets. Hence possibility of a large up move post the Budget seems less likely,” says a note from HDFC Securities.
Adding: “While optically the FM will deliver what the masses and classes want (and hence no immediate disappointment), a lot will depend on the way the Government revenues and interest rates pan out in H1FY18.”
