Dr. Manas Trivedi

His name is Ashok Khemka. IIT Kharagpur. PhD from TIFR. IAS 1991 batch. In 2012 he was Director General of Land Consolidation in Haryana. He found a land deal where Robert Vadra’s company bought 3.5 acres in Gurugram for Rs 7.5 crore and sold it to DLF for Rs 58 crore within weeks. 700 percent profit. No physical development. Fraudulent mutation approvals. He cancelled the deal and declared it illegal. Within 10 days he was transferred. That was transfer number 1 of 57. 57 transfers in 34 years. One every 6 months. Every time he exposed corruption in a new department he was moved to a less significant one. Archives. Archaeology. Printing and Stationery. His batchmates became Secretaries to the Government of India. He was sent to manage old records. He posted on X after his 53rd transfer. The reward for honesty is humiliation. He retired in April 2025 as Additional Chief Secretary. He never became Chief Secretary. No medal. No recognition. Just 57 punishments for doing his job.

Just got to know about a firm called QC Alpha with $75M in aum which is almost 700cr, can someone guide me to their website or past year returns

@_Curious_Trader @AshishGupta325 @Flattradein @ShoonyaApp Is there any specific procedure to avoid auto square off in tender period?

@dr_zindgi @AshishGupta325 @Flattradein @ShoonyaApp Zerodha.

Anyone who traded crude expiry and traded these strikes 8600 - 8800 PE and left for settlement? Please let me know the settlement price done by broker for these strikes.

@_Curious_Trader @AshishGupta325 Sir , which broker you are using. Hamara toh rms hi square off kar deta hai. @Flattradein @ShoonyaApp

@AshishGupta325 Bhav copy says settlement price 8871 for regular contract, 8844 for mini contract. All OTM strikes would have settled for no devolution into futures. I had 8900 CE and 8750-8800 PE. No devolution for those strikes.

@WeekendInvestng Sir, this is going on since last 6 months. And it's mandatory since then. But you know us, we never care to do upto last minute. Now this is must to prevent inappropriate distribution of lpg.

I mean the timing is crazy. In this crisis now add another layer of difficulty...! KYC or no gas.

@grok @sushilkedia In my view, defense and oil & gas will be first to recover. Underperforming private banks are a concern. Tourism will surely take time to recover. What do you think.

@sushilkedia You're welcome! Flattered to align with the wise ones. These sentiment extremes have flipped many a market before—let's see if history rhymes again this time. Any sectors catching your eye for the potential bounce?

Hey @grok based on whatever analysis is possible on the emotional strength of tweets on Indian #stockmarkets in last 7 days, would you believe pessimism is at its worse and such points often turn out to be a complete reversal?

@WeekendInvestng I think it is matter of time, if situation worsens, china have to take a stand. What do you think @grok ?

Who could have imagined a small corner of the world can hold the whole world to ransom. Also who could have imagined a lunatic man can hold the whole world to ransom.

@isankalpc Your 33 EMA rocked today. Smooth sailing.

@sumitkbehal I remember mcx at that time also did not go below 800 per barrel

Crude Oil dropped to -$37 in April 2020 The world was ready to pay you $37 per barrel to take delivery of oil because there was lack of storage capacity during the lockdown The generational trade was to store those drums in your bedroom and hold onto them for just six years

@yogeshnanda1 Same things in 11000 and 11500 ce

whats the funda behind the circuit filters at MCX? yesterday this call made high of 700 , closed at 230.65 and today upper circuit for this call is 32.85 .. How ?

@Mitesh_Engr @SarangSood @AshishGupta325 Anyone able to short Crude PE. OI < 200 on previous day and limit of range rule not allow to short. Any trick or way to solve this?

@WeekendInvestng What I sense is crude oil price have always manipulated, so correlating manipulated price with inflation rarely works. What we studied was right about crude, it should be already at 500 dollors odd.

There will come a point when oil will move into a permanent higher range.. Just inflation basis.... Q is are we near that change

@ashumadan4 Jis din SIP return from 2020 goes negative and sustain for 2 to 3 months, Market asli rang batayega

Make sentence: Jis Din SIP……….

@bull_times_ @WeekendInvestng Sir, what do you prefer in gold, bees or sgb or physical? Can we invest in commodities like crude and copper directly through mcx or other way?

I’ll share how I approach the markets. For options writing, I deploy ~₹2Cr. About 50% stays in cash equivalents (like LiquidBees) as collateral. I always hedge using option buys to cap downside risk. With this structure, short-term market drops don’t worry me much because the hedge protects the principal. Covered CALL and sercured PUT are my go to strategies as of now. This ₹2Cr is only the capital allocated to stock and options strategies. My broader portfolio includes mutual funds, PPF, EPF, gold, and land, with a total net worth around ₹5Cr+. I had started with 0 when I started my professional life. My philosophy is simple: generate returns while protecting capital. I’m comfortable earning nothing for a month or two if conditions aren’t favorable. Protecting the principal always comes first

Most people don't know what they will do with the money they dream of making. Any many who are making it are confused as hell too. A nice house, some cars, a few watches, a vacation home, global travel, financial independence.... Then what? Let me know what else is on your mind.

@ilangoJustNifty @ilangoJustNifty Sir, stocks like this, nsdl and brokerage stocks, media stocks and pharma stocks are some non affected sectors in this ongoing turmoil due to domestic business or so. But regulatory constraints from sebi are causing much damage. Can you suggest some from these?

@bull_times_ @WeekendInvestng Sir, as you seem to have clearer vision , may I ask you, How much money one need to achieve all these?

Financial security and independence. I already have achieved a level where we do not need a stable job or in-fact any job in my family. I have seen lack of money and the trauma because of that. I do not want that to affect my life in futures. I have enough to: take care of health of family. take care of family vacations. Take care Food requirements in the time to come Take care of next generation education and marriage requirements. Sleep at night without worrying about money. For me, lack of money to peace of mind is the most important journey in the financial world.

@WeekendInvestng Children future security by increasing number of passive income. At least 100 cr for tier 1, 50 to 60 cr for tier 2, 40 cr for tier 3 is quiet managable according to what you said and above point.

@grok @AlphaWizarDD @grok please explain role of these radar, cost or repair charge?

Not verified. Confirmed reports (CNN, Bloomberg, US officials) show 1 US-owned AN/TPY-2 THAAD radar destroyed in Jordan. Possible unconfirmed damage to radar-related buildings at UAE/Saudi THAAD sites (those countries operate their own batteries). US has 8 THAAD batteries/radars total globally. Significant loss in the Iran conflict, but not half.

BREAKING: US HAS LOST HALF OF ITS GLOBAL THAAD RADARS @grok verifu

@RakeshPujara1 @jyotibudhia It was media only but not specific to indian markets only, coz if you see usool, it has also dipped sharply in same time, which I think can not be any single operators ability.

Today seems to be a managed and manipulated #sensex #expiry . Around 2.30 pm wrong news was planted in media regarding Iran ready to talk and give up Nuclear program. Call options went through roof within no time Many options sellers would have lost tonnes of money today because of this wrong and irresponsible reporting by media . #Nifty50 #StockMarketIndia
