  1. Is Porinju still holding these shares. I blindly followed him and brought the shares. I am in a loss. Does any one suggest, is it worth to hold this stock? If yes, on what basis?

  2. Porinju keeps the stock for few months to one year...not too long...he might have booked out long back as this news is old.

  3. Remember one thing. They will always tell you after they have bought. But they will never tell you about their exit plan, not even after they have done so. They want the share to hit upper circuit after they have bought. Once they exit they have no interest to let others know.
