Dalal Street:
On the 4th Day of HLCC Expressions’24, we organised Dalal Street for the very first time. This event had provided the opportunity to our students to participate in an auction where bids were placed on a wide range of financial instruments including stocks, bonds, mutual funds and commodities. All participants had allotted an equal base corpus of 10 Lakhs Rupees and also
conducted a corpus bonus round in MCQ quiz format which helped them to increase their corpus as per their score obtained in that round. Participants had to use their own judgement and analysis to succeed in generating the highest amount of return which were declared as the winners at the end of auction. During the auction we included some surprises in the chit form
where we had some advantages and some disadvantages which created suspense among the participants.
The following were the winners of this auction:
1) Dev Shukla and Aum Patel (TY)
2) Vishal Kishnani and Dolly Manshani (SY)
3) Ronak Trivedi and Smiti Gunjariya (TY)
