• Cyient results tanked the stock by >20% on a single day on bad guidance (Perils of owning over-owned/hyped/new age/high valuation stocks – a similar situation had played out with Tata Elxsi and even Zomato now).

• Our view continues to be consistent about buying below 23k (all levels below 23k investors can deploy all the residual equity allocations over the next 3m), for levels between 23k and 24.5k one should stagger over 6m and stop beyond that.
