    The advantage of holding stocks for long periods of time is quite obvious.

    Stocks with strong fundamentals and growth prospects deliver huge returns over time.

    Over the past 10 years, 63 stocks have given a gain of over 1,000%.

    Avanti Feeds and Caplin Point Laboratories top this list with an astounding gain of over 39,000 per cent and 21,000 per cent respectively on an absolute basis.

    Bajaj Finance, Symphony, PI Industries, Atul Auto, Astral Poly Technik, Relaxo Footwears and Ajanta Pharma are some of the other stocks that have gained over 5,000 per cent on an absolute basis during this period.

    Some of these companies have been remarkable growth stories.

    Symphony

    Symphony was established with a portfolio comprising one air cooler model.

    However, it was able to match large multi-product competitors such as Crompton Greaves, Usha and Polar in the air-cooler category by the 1990s. It then decided to diversify into air conditioners (ACs), washing machines and other durables, which failed to attract consumers.

    By 2001, investors lost faith. Symphony’s net worth eroded and it ended up as a penny stock at the bourses. It was then referred to the Board for Industrial and Financial Reconstruction (BIFR) with debt of over Rs 50 crore.

    Post-2005, Symphony restructured its philosophy into 'One Product–Many Markets’ and scaled up its international presence. In 2009, it acquired IMPCO (North America) and had begun offering central air cooling solutions in India by 2011.

    Bajaj Finance

    Bajaj Finance has emerged as the only sizeable diversified non-bank finance company (NBFC) in India in a relatively short period of time. The offering includes consumer durable loans, housing finance, auto loans, gold loans, loan-against-property as well as credit cards.

    This has ensured that it has a diverse set of growth drivers in its portfolio which help it reduce cyclicality in growth and asset quality.

    Bajaj Finance's loan book has grown at a CAGR of 47 per cent over FY09-19 (more than 15 per cent loan book growth in each of the last 11 years). Profit after tax (PAT) grew at a CAGR of 61 per cent during the same period (FY09-19). Along with the stellar loan book growth, the company has been able to maintain steady asset quality with average net NPAs of 1.03 per cent during FY09-19 (average net NPA ratio has been 0.40 per cent during FY11-19),” Saurabh Mukherjea, founder, Marcellus Investment Managers, said.

    Astral Poly Technik

    Astral Poly Technik has fortified its pipes mix with consistent launches and inorganic growth over the years. After building a robust franchise in this segment, Astral forayed in adhesives business in FY14 – turning around Resinova's margins. Going ahead, an improvement in 'SEAL IT' is in the offing. It also has ramped up its pipes capacity from 137kMT in FY18 to 221kMT now.

    Sonali Salgaonkar, an analyst at Jefferies, opined that with majority capex outlay behind it, higher utilisation levels could result in superior operating leverage for Astral Poly Technik.

    The estimate FY20-22e sales/PAT CAGR at around 19 per cent/30 per cent, led by opportunity from multiple government initiatives, new product launches, ramp-up in Rex (acquired in FY19), margin expansion and boost from recent tax cuts.
