The system
Most investment tools ignore the single biggest drag on returns — taxes. I try not to. Every observation is filtered for your tax slab.
I screen NSE 500 stocks daily using a personal factor model. Automated gates filter expensive and low-quality stocks — protecting against the most common return-destroying mistakes for high-bracket investors.
At 30% slab, every signal is reviewed for LTCG eligibility. Dividend stocks flagged as inefficient (taxed at 30% for you). F&O excluded entirely. Your after-tax return is the only metric that matters.
Crude oil, dollar index, India VIX and FII flows scanned every morning. When VIX is elevated, recommended position sizes automatically reduce by 30%. Brief arrives at 7:30 AM before markets open.
Tax bracket intelligence
The same stock can be a good or bad investment depending on your tax slab. Here is how the same stock looks different across brackets.
What you receive
One observation, one tax note, one thing to watch — every week. My personal market journal, filtered for the 30% tax bracket.
I score NSE 500 stocks daily across multiple fundamental and technical dimensions. Personal gates automatically exclude the stocks most likely to destroy after-tax returns for high-bracket investors.
Crude oil, dollar index, India VIX and FII flows scanned every morning. My personal fear index automatically adjusts position sizing based on market conditions. RISK_OFF signals trigger defensive mode — protecting capital before it needs recovering.
My sentiment filter detects stocks driven by retail frenzy rather than fundamentals — automatically excluded from observations. Protects against the most common high-bracket mistake: chasing momentum at the top and paying 20% STCG on the correction.
LTCG harvest window in February, STCG loss harvest in March, advance tax dates, ITR reminder — all automated via Telegram. Saves up to ₹15,625 per year.
Quarterly results analysed within minutes of announcement. Management tone, revenue trajectory, order book, margin trends — extracted and rated automatically.
Every observation is published, logged, and outcome-reported publicly. Wins and misses both. The track record builds in public — the only kind worth trusting.
Track record
I publish my observations openly and report back on every one — what played out and what did not. A track record built in public is the only kind worth trusting.
