Broker net flow, 10–14 Aug: five brokers net bought Rs 15.6 Cr of RIDI while Naasa net sold Rs 10.6 Cr

NEPSE drops the broker-wise floorsheet after a couple of sessions. I've been storing it daily since May, so I can net a broker's buys against its sells across a whole week instead of one day at a time.

Week of Sun 10 – Thu 14 Aug, 5 sessions. Net turnover = buy minus sell, per broker, per stock.

Stock Brokers accumulating Net bought (Rs Cr)
SOHL 5 +19.52
RIDI 5 +15.60
KKHC 3 +10.88
MEN 2 +6.61
RADHI 2 +6.46
NRN 2 +5.51

Counts a broker only if it net bought ≥ Rs 2 Cr in ≥ 3 of the 5 sessions, so the real figure per stock is larger. That session filter is doing real work: without it the table is topped by ADBLB87, a debenture, at Rs 40.43 Cr and Rs 30.45 Cr from two brokers in a single session. Block placement, not accumulation.

Two things you only see once the week is netted:

  • RIDI had five brokers on one side and one on the other. Five firms net bought Rs 15.60 Cr. Naasa alone net sold Rs 10.59 Cr, net seller on 4 of 5 sessions.
  • Asian Securities was on both sides. RIDI's largest net buyer (+Rs 5.76 Cr) and SOHL's largest net seller (−Rs 4.93 Cr), same week, near-identical size.

I don't know what either means, and that's the honest answer, a broker is a member firm, not an investor. One client or two hundred, the floorsheet doesn't say.

How do you guys actually research a stock before buying on NEPSE??..

Been getting into NEPSE a bit and honestly feel like I'm just guessing half the time. Curious how people here actually do it — walk me through your process for the last stock you bought? Like what sites/apps do you actually check, what convinced you to pull the trigger, that kind of thing.

Also, has bad or missing info (late news, wrong numbers, whatever) ever screwed you on a trade? Trying to figure out what actually matters vs what's noise...just trying to get better at this and i guess this sub would actually know....

============================================================

This is a cautionary tale in the "what if you held" series. You can invest in a good business, but if you invest at the wrong price, even 10 years later you could be at a slight loss, or "even" money. This example for EBL demonstrates this. This is however the most extreme case where you bought at the absolute top.

So it is always good to know a little about market cycles as an investor. Don't FOMO into anything and NEVER buy any stock without understanding what you are buying.

It is sad that a lot of people got burned 10 years ago. A lot of boomers who came into money had a bad experience and will probably never get back into the stock market.

Methodology & Caveats

  • Cash dividends are treated as received but not reinvested/compounded.
  • Tax on dividends and capital gains is not deducted.
  • Prices and corporate action history are pulled from historical NEPSE records — cross-check the data.

What do we think about NTC?

The government is going to offload its stake by quite a lot, will the market absorb it and push prices or will the supply put pressure and drive the price down?

Himalayan Distillery Limited (HDL) — 117x in 15yrs! (24th December 2011 → Today).

Himalayan Distillery Limited (HDL)

"A hundred bagger — the Holy Grail of long term investing"

Next in the 'what if you held' series: this time, let's run the numbers on Himalayan Distillery Limited (HDL) which was listed on the NEPSE on 21st March 2003.

If you had bought Rs 1 Lakh worth of this company on 24th December 2011 and held it till today, you would have compounded at a CAGR of 38% over 15 years — ending up with Rs. 1.17 Crores.

That's a 117x in 15 years.

Note: Could not get reliable data from before 2011-10-24, so the simulation start date is 2011-10-24 rather than the actual 2003 listing date.

TL;DR

Scenario Period Duration Multiple CAGR
Full hold 2011-10-24 → Today 14.80 yrs 117x 37.95%
Bull 3 2012-04-30 → 2016-01-14 3.71 yrs 5.25x 56.45%
Bull 4 2019-03-05 → 2021-08-18 2.46 yrs 13x 184.11%
Current cycle 2022-09-25 → Today 3.88 yrs 0.9x -2.67%

Verdict: Looks like a lot of headwinds

Methodology & Caveats

  • Cash dividends are received but not reinvested/compounded.
  • Bonus share issuances increase unit counts.
  • Rights share costs, where applicable, are noted separately (none for HDL).
  • Tax on dividends and capital gains is not deducted.
  • Data gap: reliable data could not be sourced before 2011-10-24, even though HDL actually listed on 21st March 2003 — so the "full hold" figures understate the true listing-to-today return.

Sidenote: Each ticker has its own secular bull/bear cycle, which aligns loosely with the broader NEPSE index but starts and peaks at different times — the Nepse cycle labels here are used for convenience only. For HDL specifically, Bull 3 and Bull 4 arguably weren't separate cycles at all — it was one long ~9-year bull run from May 2013 to January 2022.

Another side note: Thin liquidity in the early years

- 2012: 19,740 units/yr total
- 2013, 2014: negligible
- 2015: 47,760 units/yr total
- 2016: 4,855 units/yr total (10-months no trade)
- 2017: 97,626 units/yr
- 2018: 92,325 units/yr
- 2019: 841,622 ← liquidity actually shows up
- 2020+: 6M-17M/yr take off
Liquidity shows up 2019.  If you had bought earlier it would be hard to exit.  
So you would have been forced to compaound away.

The weak conceptual foundation of Nepalese legal system

Current Nepalese Legal System treats human beings as property of whichever party is running the government. where law treats people guilty until proven innocent.

They claim restricting foreign investments, controlling prices, and limiting travel serve as compassionate measures to retain national wealth, prevent social harm, and shield vulnerable groups from abuse. They claim that the state must override individual autonomy to ensure "the collective welfare of society".

Any valid legal system must recognize the individual as an independent, rational being who owns their own life and the product of their labor.

The Nepalese state overrides ownership by forbidding a salaried worker from investing their savings in foreign markets to secure their future (Act Restricting Investment Abroad, 1964, Section 3).

It criminalizes the possession and trading of cryptocurrencies, stripping individuals of the choice to protect their wealth through voluntary mediums of exchange (Foreign Exchange Regulation Act, 1962, Section 12).

It bans adult women from traveling to specific countries for employment, legally reducing them to incompetent wards (Department of Immigration directives under the Foreign Employment Act, 2007).

The legal framework assumes guilt by default. It's like they have no conception of "Innocent until proven guilty".

Individuals must prove their harmlessness to a regulator before moving their own capital or their own bodies.

The government systematically punishes productive citizens for their ambition by imposing extortionate taxes on vehicles and banning luxury imports (Export-Import Control Act, 1957, Section 3, and the annual Finance Act).

The state guts the essence of private ownership by freezing land plotting and dictating how owners subdivide or dispose of their legitimately acquired real estate (Land Use Act, 2019, Section 4, and Land Use Regulations, 2022).

Bureaucratic interference does it best to try and block digital platforms under the guise of social harmony, denying individuals the absolute right to consume and associate with chosen information (Telecommunications Act, 1997, Section 47, and Cabinet Directives).

Arbitrary minimum thresholds on foreign direct investment dismantle economic freedom, using force to prevent a willing local entrepreneur from accepting capital from a willing foreign investor (Foreign Investment and Technology Transfer Act, 2019, Section 3).

It mandates trade operations and capping margins at twenty percent, transforming private enterprises into heavily chained servants of the bureaucracy (Black-marketing and Some Other Social Offenses and Punishment Act, 1975, Section 3).

Every one of these statutes forces the citizen to beg for permission before producing or trading.

Constitutional guarantees mean nothing when the daily operational laws systematically violate the right to life, liberty, and property.

Nepal Life Insurance Company Limited (NLIC) — 37x in 4.3 yrs! (2012-04-01 → 2016-07-27)

Nepal Life Insurance Company Limited (NLIC)

Continuing the "what if you held" series — this time looking at Nepal Life Insurance Company (NLIC), listed on NEPSE on 22nd January 2003. Reliable simulation data starts from 25th March 2011 onward.

TL;DR: Rs. 1 Lakh invested in NLIC in March 2011 and held untouched (dividends taken as cash, not reinvested) would be worth Rs. 25.3 Lakhs today — a 23.37% CAGR over 15.4 years. Zoomed in, one particular bull run (2012–2016) alone delivered 37x in 4.3 years. The current cycle (2022–now) has only managed 1.6x in 3.9 years — the slowest of the four windows shown below.

Side-by-Side Summary

Window Duration Entry Price Exit Price Multiple CAGR
Full hold (2011–2026) 15.4 yrs Rs. 725.00 Rs. 733.90 25x 23.37%
Bull 3 (2012–2016) 4.3 yrs Rs. 640.00 Rs. 4,020.00 37x 129.96%
Bull 4 (2019–2021) 2.5 yrs Rs. 1,056.00 Rs. 1,882.00 3x 55.65%
Current (2022–today) 3.9 yrs Rs. 579.00 Rs. 733.90 1.6x 12.45%

The current cycle has already run almost as long as Bull 3 did (3.9 yrs), for a fraction of the return (37X versus 1.6x).

Notes on the simulation:

  • Cash dividends are received but not reinvested/compounded — they sit as cash in the running total.
  • Tax on dividends and capital gains is not deducted.
  • Prices and corporate action history are pulled from historical NEPSE records — worth cross-checking if you're using these numbers for anything beyond a "huh, interesting" exercise.

Disclaimer: This is just an exercise in seeing how a random NEPSE stock has performed historically. Not a stock tip or recommendation. Do not FOMO-breathe..

प्रभु बैंक २४ करोड घाटामा, १५ दिन लगाएर ‘ऋण म्यानेज गर्दा’ पनि एनपिएल १५.५५ प्रतिशत, छैन उठ्ने छनक !

This article highlights:

  • राष्ट्र बैंकले साउन १५ गतेसम्म उठेको ब्याजलाई पनि असार मसान्तको आम्दानी देखाउन पाउने सुविधा दिँदापनि, हदैसम्म एभरग्रिनिङ गर्दा पनि, अरु बैंकबाट फरक प्रयोजनका लागि लिएको ऋणको रकमलाई कर्जा सक्रिय देखाउन ब्याज उठाए पनि, २५ प्रतिशत हाराहारीको एनपीएल अनेक गरेर म्यानेज गर्दा पनि प्रभु बैंकको एनपीएल १५.५५ प्रतिशत पुगेको छ ।
  • करिव ५० करोड घाटामा गएको बैंकको घाटा कम देखाउन हदैसम्म प्रयास गरेको बैंक अन्ततः २४ करोड मात्र घाटामा देखाउन सफल भएको छ ।
  • यता बैंकमा बिग्रिएको ऋणका फाइल पनि थुप्रै छन् । तर, बैंकभित्र बिग्रिएका ऋणहरु उठ्ने छनक समेत देखिएको छैन । स्वयम् बैंककै कर्मचारीले समेत बिग्रिएका ऋण उठ्ने सम्भावना साह्रै कम भएको बताएका छन् ।
