A rip-roaring history of the Indian stock market post liberalization.

The wise and wily Lalchand Gupta takes you on an exciting journey through Dalal Street in this comprehensive history of the stock market since 1991. From tech booms and tax evasion to banks and money laundering; scams and crashes to fixers and investors, Lala has seen it all. Bringing the story up to the present, this special fifth anniversary edition also makes keen observations about the developments on the trading floor of the Bombay Stock Exchange in more recent times and doles out smart investing hacks in Lala’s inimitable style.

Bulls, Bears and Other Beasts is a must-read for anyone interested in the financial health of the country as well as those who want to know about the sensational events that led up to the far more sterile stock-market operations of the present day.
