Launching NAV to track performance.

To help with tracking the performance of the portfolio, I am planning to use NAV (net asset value). The calculation is simple and the details and an example can be seen at http://www.fool.com/FoolFAQ/FoolFAQ0056.htm. This helps me to track the performance more closely and accurately.

Date of Launch: August 14, 2007
Initial Price: Rs. 100/-

The portfolio and share price calculations is based on the complete portfolio value which includes value of securities & cash holdings.

The latest NAV information can be viewed in the sidebar.
