This thread is actually about me.
Thank you @AnkurPatel59 sir — sharing my journey below 👇”
I’ve stayed anonymous as “Unseen Trader”, but this phase shaped the trader I am today.
Sharing what truly changed me 👇
It was around May or June last year. I had just finished Jan 2024 Mentorship Batch a few weeks before that. I was holding two swing trades at the time. HGINFRA and HINDZINC. One of my mentees had taken the same trades. We had discussed them and he liked the setups so he got in around the same time I did.
Right after we entered the market pulled back. Both positions started coming closer to our entry. My plan was simple. I wanted to hold. They had come out of a bigger base so the reward was still good even if I finally got stopped out. I was fine taking some pressure because the overall structure made sense to me.
But he could not handle it. And I do not blame him. He was still new. Watching your stock drop when you are still learning is not easy. So he exited during the pullback. He still managed to take a small profit on the way out.
A few days later the market came out of the pullback and both those stocks rallied properly. And he was angry at himself. He called me and said he could not follow the plan. He felt like he did something wrong.
I told him it was okay. He was on the right path. No one knows what happens after they sell. The market can move in any direction. He made the decision based on what he could handle at that moment. And that is perfectly fine.
He felt better and we moved on.
Then a week or two later his job timings changed. I do not remember the exact details but now he could not track the market live like before. And this bothered him a lot. He called me again and I could hear the stress in his voice. He said he did not know how he would manage now. He was used to watching every minute. Now he could not do that. He asked what changes he should make and how he should adjust.
He was clearly uncomfortable. His routine was gone.
I said " Believe me this Transfer could be best thing happened to you" I had no idea how. I cannot predict the future. But I knew the kind of guy he was. Hardworking. Honest. Wants to improve. Not running behind quick money. And sometimes that is enough. Life finds a way to support you when your intent is clean.
Then a few days passed. It was around 2024 election result time. The market had gone through a lot of noise. He took one trade. Paras Defence. Entered well. Took decent size.
Because of his new timings he could not sit in front of the screen. He could not babysit the trade. He had to let it run.
Later he messaged me. He said he got around a fifty five percent gain on that trade. And it was meaningful money for him.
What he said after that stayed with me. He told me if he had been in front of the screen he would have booked it at twenty or twenty five percent and felt satisfied. But because he was not there to interfere the stock did what it was supposed to do.
After that he took more trades. Same story. He was not there to act on every small move. And that actually helped him.
When I told him to wait it out I had no idea this would happen. But I knew that if you have the right mindset and you honestly want to learn things somehow start moving in your direction.
This whole thing taught me something again. Sometimes the thing you think is going to hurt you is the thing that pushes you forward. He thought not watching the market was a problem. It became the solution he needed.
I have seen this again and again.
Growth rarely enters from the front door. It slips in from the places you resist the most.
HOPE FOR THE BEST, PREPARE FOR THE WORST.
Let’s make this the most peaceful movement in India's history.
Please be vigilant that no miscreants play mischief.
See you all in Delhi tomorrow...

Why BH registration is not allowing in Telangana, other congress govts are fully cooperating and giving BH registrations to Corporate and Govt employees, everytime ,Telangana has to implement BH Registration #CMRevanthReddy#RTAtelangana#CMOtelangana
This is happening across the country and still everyone stays SILENT.
Keep your fuel knob on - the tank will be empty before you know it.
If you see someone pushing their posh bike by the roadside. Remember Modi-Gadkari.
Marico Rubio says soon US would stop allowing India to import Russian oil. Already we are going through big crisis. Bloomberg reports RBI sold $12 billion worth of gold to buy forex.
The decision to pledge gold in 1991 is still being criticised. But it was only pledged and came back to country.
Even a poor household in India only pledges gold. Rarely they sell it.
Why we are in a situation to sell our gold reserves?
Despite importing from Russia and not paying in dollars, our situation is bad. If we are going to listen to the dictum of US and stop buying Russian oil, where are the dollars to buy from America and it's allies.
For now, there seems to be no resolution in sight for US Iran conflict. Even Prime Minister has warned how severe impact it would create for our economy.
Again 2013 fragile five status of India is repeatedly criticised. Even economists close to government like Surjit Bhalla now says we are now the most fragile economy in the world. And he said, may be Turkey can be added to it to call as fragile two.
PV Narasimha Rao acknowledged the crisis in 1991 and worked towards bring India out of it. What are we going to do now?
BREAKING: More than ₹5,000,000,000,000 ($53 billion) wiped out from Indian stocks in the last 1 HOUR.
Indian stock markets lost about ₹16.83 TRILLION in market value in just one month, and India has fallen to 7th place globally by total market capitalization.
First Taiwan pushed down India to 6th position and became 5th largest Stock market
And now South Korea pushed down India to 7th position and became 6th
Indian economy on free fall, people losing money everyday and instead of questioning Govt over this, our media is criticising online educators for questioning Govt over Paper leaks and calling NEET, CBSE students as Anti National and Pakistani 🤡
🚨 China attracts investors with lower taxes.
India punishes investors with higher taxes. 👀
🇮🇳 INDIA
• STCG Tax → 20%
• LTCG Tax → 12.5%
• STT on every trade
• Extra charges & brokerage
🇨🇳 CHINA
• 0% capital gains tax for many retail investors
• Lower transaction costs
Result? 👇
Global money is slowly looking at China again while Indian investors keep paying higher taxes on every profitable trade.
A market grows when investing becomes attractive.
Not when every investor feels like they are trading for the government first and themselves later. 📉📊
E20 पेट्रोल?

This is an unbelievable piece of work by Sarthak and something that requires amplification.
Let me explain what he found, in simple terms.
Sarthak is a Class 12 student from the 2025-26 batch, one of the 17 lakh students whose answer sheets went through CBSE's new On-Screen Marking system.
He spent days reading through CBSE's evaluation tenders, scraped all 576 tenders CBSE has issued, and tracked how the rules changed across three versions of the same tender.
The core finding is that the company that won the contract to scan and grade 17 lakh students' answer sheets is Coempt Eduteck.
Coempt used to be called Globarena Technologies. Globarena was the company behind the 2019 Telangana intermediate exam disaster, where software failures led to 3.8 lakh students getting wrong or missing marks, and 23 students died by suicide.
A government committee found systemic failure and negligence. Six months later, Globarena rebranded to Coempt Eduteck.
So a company with that track record won a contract to handle 17 lakh CBSE students. Sarthak's investigation is about how the rules were rewritten to let that happen.
The tender was issued three times.
> First tender, February 2025. It existed, then disappeared from the public GeM portal. Sarthak scraped all 576 CBSE tenders and this one was missing from the archive entirely.
> Second tender, May 2025. Four companies applied including TCS and Coempt. All four failed the technical evaluation. Cancelled.
> Third tender, August 2025. Coempt won. Between the second and third tender, a series of rule changes happened, and every single one made it easier for Coempt to qualify.
Here is what changed, one by one.
01. The old rules disqualified any company with a history of abandoning work, failing to complete contracts, or financial weakness. The new rules deleted this clause entirely. Coempt's Telangana history stopped being a barrier.
02. The old rules disqualified any company that was "blacklisted earlier." The new rules changed this to "currently blacklisted." Because Globarena rebranded after Telangana, removing the word "earlier" effectively erased their past.
03. The rules required Rs 50 crore average turnover over three years. Coempt's exact average came to Rs 50.86 crore. They cleared the bar by less than 1%. Earlier, a smaller company had asked CBSE to lower the bar to Rs 30 crore for fairer competition. CBSE refused. So the bar was kept high enough to block small players, but sat exactly low enough for Coempt to scrape through.
04. Software maturity is measured on the CMMI scale, 1 to 5. The old rules required Level 5. The new rules dropped it to Level 3. Coempt is a Level 3 company.
05. The cooling-off period for engaging retired CBSE officials was cut from two years to one. This makes it easier to use recently retired insiders to influence the process.
06. The old rules required experience with large projects of at least 5 lakh students each. The new rules removed the student count and counted cumulative answer-book volume across small projects instead. Coempt has many small fragmented university contracts. This helped Coempt and hurt TCS.
07. The old rules required bidders to own their own data centre and disaster recovery centre on Indian soil. The new rules allowed third-party MeitY-empanelled cloud hosting. Coempt runs on AWS and Azure. This helped Coempt and hurt TCS, which owns its own data centres. It also means student data is no longer on sovereign, Indian infrastructure.
08. The old rules required the bidder to own or control the complete source code of its software. The new rules deleted this. Coempt's platform runs on Microsoft's proprietary IIS, which they don't own.
09. A last-minute corrigendum, issued right before bid submission, removed CBSE's own power to blacklist the firm if its software failed catastrophically. So even a Telangana-scale failure couldn't get Coempt banned from future government tenders.
10. The penalty structure shifted from punishing mistakes to punishing delays. The old rules fined the vendor for wrong scanning, merged pages, and unscanned books. The new rules dropped those and instead levied Rs 50,000 per day for delays. This incentivises rushed scanning over accurate scanning.
11. The old rules had a hard accuracy threshold, error rate not to exceed 0.5%. The new rules removed this number entirely.
12. The old rules specified proper book and robotics scanners. The new rules just say "sufficient scanners." The definition was vague enough that, as Sarthak notes, the scanning could be done with a phone on a stand.
13. On the security side, the contract required a VAPT (vulnerability and penetration test) certified by CERT-In before go-live, and a restricted beta phase before launch. The system clearly wasn't restricted, because the other researcher, Nisarga, was able to access it and find vulnerabilities four days before go-live. So the mandatory security audit appears to have been bypassed.
These are more than a dozen rule changes, all between the failed tender and the winning tender, all pushing in the same direction, all benefiting the one company with the worst track record in the field.
The security holes Nisarga found last week now have an explanation. The system was built by a vendor that was specifically allowed to skip the security certification, the source code ownership, the data sovereignty, and the quality thresholds the original rules demanded.
Following things need to happen immediately;
1. An immediate CAG audit of the tender process.
2. A parliamentary debate on the topic.
3. An independent investigation into
> Why the first tender vanished?
> Why the disqualification clauses were deleted?
> Why the turnover bar was held exactly where it was?
> Why the security level was dropped?
> Why the blacklisting power was removed at the last moment?
Sarthak, this is genuinely exceptional investigative work. Far better than most journalists with full resources ever manage. Take a bow. :)
