I wonder where the need arises to make personal attacks. The core idea is nothing wrong or malicious and is infact something that can be quite useful to many.
If you disagree, you can just say it and cite your reasons. Why type-cast people, judge them, label them, and ultimately create a my-side vs. your-side scenario?

Omji, the idea is not to make TED paid. TED is and should always be a free forum. This is regarding a paid service where e-mails are sent to subscribers.
Also, subscribers need not blindly follow...just like with any paid service. Those interested would subscribe, those who don't require such support to supplement their thought process can choose not to.

I totaaly agree with Mr leo ji.... I believe knowledge shared is knowledge gained and nothing can superced the value of knowledge.... I am a novice to the forum, but the discussion has led me to better understanding of fundamentals and value picks.....

I also second to this subscription based services from Basant Sir...I rate him at the up there with Best of best fund managers of India...So, I wont mind paying him subscription fees...As we pay entry load & exit load in MF as well..and 50% of those under-perform their own benchmark index leave apart Sensex...So,I am in favor for subscription based service from BM...

Hello folks,
While the debate seems to be boiling emanating steam, let me
revert to the topic, ‘My investment Strategy’.
Basantji’s methodology of stock picking and therefore reaping
dividends better then benchmark indices is very logical. It leaves less of room
for the emotional factor.
However my issue is very amateurish – How does one get
relevant data. Some annual reports mention them, but that happens only after
you are a shareholder. Now I have been fervently scouting websites and
magazines for the same. I need to assimilate data from different sources, yet I
have not been able to get slated growth of the sector/company, ROE/RoCE for
last 5 years.
Can anyone facilitate novices like me. Thanks.

Gentlemen, leave this issue to Basantji who knows what to do and when to do about this forum better than most of us. In case if he wants any suggestions/ideas in this regard, he would put that on the forum.
Why unnecessary wasting pages/memories for such unwanted things on such a good thread.

Many companies post PDF files of annual reports on their website. These are freely downloadable. I have studied many companies in this way although I am not their shareholder. It is a good idea to study the ARs of the past few years also. Many companies also post analyst reports. Look at them and see how good the projections have turned out to be.
