I have been incredibly lucky with my investment in Havells. With 25% XIRR I have beaten the Nifty 50 Index by a comfortable margin. But then it is because of this outperformance I have been a bit hesitant to invest more in this stock. I have not invested in this stock since last two years and the share price’s sideways movement has meant that the outperformance over Nifty 50 Index has shrunk over the last year.
The company pays dividends regularly and for me the latest dividend yield at cost has been at 0.7%.
The Russian invasion of Ukraine did affect the share price but it was still resilient compared to some other companies.
