Though not many people knew, all these companies were already
leaders in their own sub-niche or the small area of the industry
they operated in.
And thus, they were much better prepared than their peers for
managing explosive growth in the years to come.
So when the demand for their product grew, they were able to
provide a much better service than all of their competitors and
quickly established themselves as the go-to guy in their niche.
And the rest as they say, is history.
It's true! Most of the companies you saw in the table above are
pretty well known in India today. But at one time they were not
so well known.
Did you ever find yourself thinking, "I wish I had invested
in Pidilitewhile it was still young?" Or even in Titan for that
matter?
These were once-unknown-small companies that have grown rapidly
in the last decade to become household names in India today.
But there was no way you could have known that sooner... until
now...
Through Hidden Treasure we're providing you opportunities like
that today.
to snap them up early and set yourself up for huge gains when
these stocks soar.
However, considering the risks that small companies carry, you
should realistically not expect each and every recommendation to
be an out and out winner.
Plus, whenever the market crashes, small caps are the first to
bear the brunt of it.
So these are some things you need to understand and acknowledge
when you invest in small caps.
But despite all these drawbacks, we believe our Hidden Treasure
service has actually done quite well.

"Equitymaster is comprehensive, trustworthy, is replete with rich
and well-intended analysis. It may go wrong - but no malefides

as the church bells. I respect their analysis with healthy
skepticism."

We've been in this industry for a LONG time. In fact, we were the
first Indian entity in the finance domain to venture onto the
Internet.
We've been in this industry for a LONG time. In fact, we were the
first Indian entity in the finance domain to venture onto the
Internet.
And now, we have completed over 19 years online.
Today we have over 1,484,807 members from 71 countries worldwide
who trust us!
But at the same time, we are NOT stock brokers. We don't gain
anything even if you buy the stocks we recommend.
However, almost all of our income comes from the fee we charge on
our stock recommendation services. And so it's extremely
important to us that the stocks we recommended make you money.
That's why...
All our recommendations are supported by thorough research we list out the reasons to buy and also the investment
concerns that we foresee.
"I am member of Equitymaster since 2008. Time & again they have
provided unbiased reports in all market conditions. Their reports
always ensure that we investors take an informed decision with
rationale thinking rather than being swayed away with the market
sentiments."
- Shailesh Mistry, a Hidden Treasure Subscriber since 2011
When markets were at their nervous best in late 2008 and early
2009, our Buy recommendations on Page Industries, eClerx, and
KPIT Cummins were backed by our confidence in the low risk
profile of these companies as shown by ERMTM.
As expected, these stocks went on to multiply our subscribers'
wealth several times.
And it was THIS risk matrix that helped us identify the best
stocks to recommend to our subscribers when several of them were
looking attractive.
It did so by acting as one of the tools used for eliminating the
bad stocks, so that we recommend only the good stocks.
But that's not all...
Again, it is the same ERMTM that we rely on to quantify the risks
we believe subscribers need to be cautioned about while
recommending a 'Sell'.
"I am very satisfied with the services offered by Equitymaster.
If I have to pick one very positive thing than that would be
unbiased recommendations on stocks. The new tool of valuation
using ERM is very helpful.
If I can ask for one specific intervention or better service, it
would be when should one really book the loss, if we get some
sort of an alert to really act on sharp declines that would be
helpful to us."

"Your Hidden Treasure is a beacon of light in these troubled
times. I am happy I took the right choice."
- P. S. Sathyamurthy, a Hidden Treasure subscriber since 2008
"I have been investing in the market since the last 5 years and
have been a lifetime member of Equitymaster since the last three
years. I have found their advice to be quite unbiased. One good
thing about them is that they are constantly trying to bring in
new services via research and analysis which is helping me to get
an objective view on the market. I hope that they bring about
more expertise in the mutual fund market also. I trust them
because they have the transparency to go back and review the
performance of their recommendations."
- Prashanth Nair, a Hidden Treasure Subscriber since 2011
There are some cases in which Hidden Treasure and small caps may
NOT be right for you.
For instance, if you're nearing retirement or have already
retired, I don't recommend putting all of your retirement money
into small caps.
Small caps are for those who are ready to take some risk to make
big returns.
While you can make a lot of money from small caps, you can also
lose a lot of it very quickly.
Just one good small cap stock could be enough to make you very
rich. But to find that one small cap stock, you might have to go
through a few duds as well.
Therefore every small cap investor needs to understand this and
plan his or her small cap investments wisely.
And that's what Hidden Treasure can help you with!
