Jignesh Shah to Investors:Ask Lord Balaji
“I strongly believe I have an equal responsibility to FT minority shareholders. At the same time, we understand the pain of the investors and I am going to have a dialogue with the NSEL Investors Forum. Please understand that this company should not be judged by NSEL.
And, if we can get any support from the government, it will be desirable and I fully understand the government’s stand — it’s an unregulated exchange and you all know that we have been a victim and the fraud has happened, whatever it is.Soon, we will come out with a formal paper” Jignesh Shah said.
On how much time it would take to set things right, Shah replied: “You have to ask Lord Balaji. What I can say is we want to focus. The more of a combined force we are, we will be able to recover. First, I will meet the investors’ forum. My individual thoughts may not be of that great importance; let us be institutionalised.”-from BS
“I believe that our society’s “mistakephobia” is crippling, a problem that begins in most elementary schools, where we learn to learn what we are taught rather than to form our own goals and to figure out how to achieve them. We are fed with facts and tested andthose who make the fewest mistakes are considered to be the smart ones, so we learn that it is embarrassing to not know and to make mistakes. Our education system spends virtually no time on how to learn from mistakes, yet this is critical to real learning. Asa result, school typically doesn’t prepare young people for real life unless their lives are spent following instructions and pleasingothers. In my opinion, that’s why so many students who succeed in school fail in life”.-Ray Dalio

How Marwadis got screwed by NSEL
“Maximum brokers are marwadis and their clients also are marwadis and number of marwadis who were invested in this do not want to take risk in the equity market. They wanted some assured type of scheme. We have burnt fingers in real estate funding and number of places, though some money, some stake should be there and assured return will be coming. That is why maximum marwadis are there because our brokers are also marwadis.”-said Arun Dalmia, Secretary NSEL Investor Forum
