Jindal Shares Myth Debunked: Calculating True Investment Returns

Jindal Shares Myth Debunked: Calculating True Investment Returns

Someone posted online about how their father's old investment in a company called Jindal grew to be worth a lot of money, but the numbers weren't quite right.

The original shares were from a company that later merged with another company, which also split its shares.

If you do the math correctly, a ₹1 lakh investment has grown into a smaller amount, about ₹31.40 lakh, which is still a good return over a long time.

It's important to remember that the original old paper stock certificates are no longer valid and it's also good to choose strong companies to invest in.
