Best Penny Stocks to Invest in India in 2022

When you are a new investor, then the financial market can make you overwhelmed with its innumerable options. It is wise to start with the inexpensive option of a penny stock which may trade for less than Rs 10 in the Indian Stock market.

What exactly are penny stocks? Stocks that often trade at relatively cheaper prices, have low market capitalizations, are largely illiquid, and are listed in smaller exchanges on the stock market.

But due to these qualities such as little liquidity, lack of information availability, and a small number of shareholders, these penny stocks are risky and speculative in nature.

But investment in any form is risky or naam toh bnte hi hain Risk se.

But today’s generation of millennials is smart enough to take a calculated risk. Therefore, you should consider these factors before investing in penny stocks:

• Take the “risk” factor into consideration

It has been made clear at the beginning of the blog that investment in penny stocks is risky and speculative. They are capable of giving high gains and losses as well. It is advised that you start investing small and increase your investment gradually if you get some benefits.

• Don’t have the approach of buy and hold

If you want to reduce the risk factor in penny stocks, then avoid the “buy and hold” approach. Instead, try to invest them for a smaller duration and wait for them to mature before reinvesting.

• Returns are higher than average

You should have a positive outlook when you are investing in penny stocks so that you can earn more money with fewer risks involved. The returns on investments in penny stocks are higher than average when compared to investments in mutual funds and equity shares.

• These cannot be your long-term investment strategy

Penny stocks are great for short-term investment but they should not be a long-term strategy as they are really volatile and susceptible to sudden drops in value without any significant warning. You can even find your investment worth less than what you originally invested after a few years.

After taking all these factors in mind, I am going to give you an overview of some of the best penny stocks to invest in 2022:
