    @kharb i think since page's jockey is a leader brand in under wear, it is considered close to monopoly business. bcoz there is no considerable competitors. high pe may not be sustainable in future if market conditions get worse. so it may come down from 12000.

    @kharb from a investment point of view high pe stocks stocks are definitely avoid. but retail investors want quality and ready to pay any price. may be status issue of owning a well known company, but ignorantly making bad investment decision.

    paying slightly high price for quality is normal.But that has to be in relation to quality underlying?? Does stock deserve higher PE than Asain paints,which is also riding consumption boom and also enjoying low crude .?????I don't know,just for discussion.

    @kharb markets are ineffcient and much irrational than we think it is. so i think high pe are temporary problems and in long run it may come to comfortable levels.
