His portfolio value now is close to Rs. 2200 crores. Last quarter, it was Rs. 1750 crores. He added a cool Rs. 450 crores to his net worth in just one quarter!

I actually  know very very little about him. Questions -
 
- When did RJ start investing?
 
- Was he a rich guy even before his investments? It is easier to grow to these levels from Rs. 10 crores than from Rs. 10 lakhs.
 
- What does 'Rare Enterprises' do? On TV, he had mentioned that he would not like to get into asset management business.

Yes, Aptech is missing.
 
I think RJ entered Praj at 70-80 levels.Praj low in 2004 was 72.65 on 16/03/2004.

The wonderful thing with RJ is not that he does not go wrong but he goes wrong and messes up in companies that make no difference to his portfolio. For example he messed up in TV today and Midday but see these stocks have had no effect on his portfolio.
 
Since RJ's top 10 holding constitute 80%+ of his portfolio, why does he bother with miniscule holdings in the other stocks as it wouldn't really make any big difference to his overall portfolio.
 
Does he invest in these companies to keep them in his radar and then increase his holdings as they start performing or sell them off (TV Today & Midday) if it turns out to be a mistake ?
 
If that's the case then what kind of time horizon does he usually hold on to the duds ?

There is an unsung hero of Dalal Street who seldom gets any publicity: Shivanand S. Mankekar. Is it possible to get the feel of his major holdings?
 
I noticed that he holds 6.59Lakh shares of India Infoline!

I don't know who this guy is - but there are a few people who dislike publicity.
