Calendar 2018 was a year of return drought for Dalal Street, as more than 85 per cent of the stocks failed to beat benchmark Sensex. Smallcaps took a heavy beating with losses rising as much as 94 per cent.

Some well-known midcaps like Gitanjali Gemsand Kwality turned penny stocks, while as many as 20 little-known stocks multiplied investors’ wealth by up to nine times.

Stock broking firm Dolat Investments scripted the biggest wealth creation story, rallying 769 per cent from Rs 7.25 at the end of last year to around to Rs 63 by the yearned.

Other chart toppers among penny stocks were Orient Tradelink (up 656 per cent), Vikas Proppant & Granite (up 422 per cent), Think Ink Studio (up 402 per cent), Gujarat Poly Electronics (up 336 per cent), RMG Alloy Steel (up 200 per cent), SPS International (up 178 per cent) and Crown Tours (up 142 per cent).

Penny stocks, often referred to as Bhangaar stocks in market parlance, are those that trade below Rs 10.

Among other stocks from the segment, Cybele Industries, Indrayani Biotech, Econo Trade, Accel India, Bio Green Papers, Ajel, Jain Studios, Welcon International and Arnold Holdings gained between 50 per cent and 136 per cent.

Penny stocks are high-risk bets and are strictly no-no for weak-hearted and conservative investors. Before taking any position in such stocks, one should check promoter background and holdings, company’s financials, debt levels and share pledge positions.
