Understanding Blue-Chip Stocks & Long-Term Investment Strategy

1. What are Blue-Chip Stocks?

Blue-chip stocks refer to shares of well-established, financially stable, and reputable companies with a long track record of performance. These stocks belong to companies that have:

• A strong market presence
• Stable earnings growth
• Leadership in their industry
• Regular dividend payments
• Lower volatility compared to mid-cap or small-cap stocks

Types of Blue-Chip Stocks:

1. Nifty 50 Blue-Chip Stocks – Large-cap companies listed in Nifty 50 (e.g., TCS, HDFC Bank, Infosys, Reliance).
2. Non-Nifty 50 Blue-Chip Stocks – Strong companies that may not be part of Nifty 50 but are financially sound (e.g., Bosch, Nestle India, Pidilite).
