    Please go and read the basic of finance and economic books before stepping into investing . Dont just gamble and loose your money !!!! . If you can study the basics and learn by yourself ,you are the best master !!!

    Dear Prashanth ,

    we are also started like you brother ...

    1. CMP means Current Market Price traded in stock market
    2.PE means Price Earnings of that stock
    3.
    P/E ratio = price per share / earnings per share (EPS)

    Where EPS = earnings/total shares outstanding

    If you buy a stock at current market price PE of that stock is at 23.5 x
    means your total investment amount in secondary market amount will earn by your company will take 23.5 years time ....

    ALL THE BEST BROTHER

    Hello prashanth,

    If you are small investor always go for mutual funds, you can make approx. 10-15% compounded profit in 5-7 years horizon.
    If you are very keen to invest in stock market then you should keep a time horizon of 15 years and expect a return of 20-25 % yearly if you are LUCKY.

    Very sensible advice. Stock markets are a dangerous place.

    CMP:- Current Market Price
    PE:- Price Earning
    I think people give good advice to you, you should learn the basics of stock market then you should enter in it. Otherwise you will get a big financial loss.
