    A look back at a few stock winners who withstood the 2008 crisis to eventually reign supreme on the bourses, making ‘crorepatis’ out of those investors who showed the patience and prudence to brave all odds, especially the ups and downs spanning the exceptional voyage.

    .....

    To put it straight without further ado, had you invested Rs. 1 lac each in stocks of Ajanta Pharma, Eicher Motor and Page Industries on January 8, 2008, you would have become a crorepati today, if not someone above that! What’s so special about January 8, you might wonder!

    ....


    In sharp contrast, the Bombay Stock Exchange (BSE) 200 index, which had ended the day at 2724.65 on January 8, 2008 rose by a mere 28.44% at 3499.51 as on June 30, 2015. But despite the modest BSE 200 growth, 87 stocks within it have registered triple digit growth while 30 have clocked doubled digit growth.
    BSE 200 Index top performers since 2008

    Simple Return (%) Close as on June 30, 2015 Close as on January 08, 2008
    Ajanta Pharma Ltd. 10066.13 1569.65 15.44
    Eicher Motors Ltd. 4766.55 19578.15 402.30
    Page Industries Ltd. 3040.00 15103.40 481.00
    Lupin Ltd. 1447.23 1886.85 121.95
    Aurobindo Pharma Ltd. 1295.20 1449.75 103.91
    Torrent Pharmaceuticals Ltd. 1223.99 1298.50 98.08
    Amara Raja Batteries Ltd. 1214.28 882.10 67.12
    Gruh Finance Ltd. 1189.14 260.60 20.22
    Kaveri Seed Company Ltd. 1040.84 735.50 64.47
    BSE 200 28.44 3499.51 2724.65
    Sensex 33.09 27,780.83 20,873.33

    So what does that tell us about the power of Equities? That they can be a phenomenally lucrative option if buys the right stocks and hold them for a long enough span, no matter how terrifying the market volatility appears at face value.
