Tata Group stocks have been significant wealth creators for investors over time. Companies such as Tata Consultancy Services (TCS), Tata Motors, Tata Steel and Tata Consumer Products are household names in India.
Paying tribute to the former Tata Group chairperson Ratan Tata, investors should learn from the growth of the Tata Empire that a long-term investment horizon is required to really participate in the wealth creation that happens through the capital market, Dr. V K Vijayakumar, Chief Investment Strategist of Geojit Financial Services said in a note.
In a bull market like the present one, there will always be valuation concerns. But great companies like the ones Ratan Tata built will create wealth for investors in the long run, the note stated.
