Who is Harshad Mehta?
Harshad Mehta was an Indian Stockbroker, who is known for the 1992 Stock Market Scam of over 4000 crore rupees Indian Rupees but some financial experts believe that Harshad didn’t do any fraud, he just found loopholes in the system.
After graduation, Mehta did several different jobs like sold hosiery, cement contractor, sorted diamonds, insurance clerk, etc for almost 8 years.
While working as an insurance clerk in the Bombay office of New India Assurance Company Limited, Harshad started taking interest in the stock market which led him to quit this job and he started working as a Jobber for a stockbroker, Prasann Pranjivandas, in the stock market.
After working as a Jobber to a stockbroker, Prasann Pranjivandas, Harshad eventually became a member of the Bombay Stock Exchange in 1984 and made his own stock brokerage firm known as “GrowMore Research and Asset Management”.
Mehta’s way of doing stock market business was straightforward, he would take a huge amount of money from government security markets for a short time without anyone noticing it and invest it in his already selected securities.
His invested amount was so enormous that the share would rise greatly but falls back down after he sold those shares.
These rises forced people to invest in that security, which causes more rise, in this way Harshad secretly liquidate his shares and pay off the money he took from the markets and banks.
He took advantage of these loopholes in the system and increased the index of the Bombay Stock Exchange from 1000 to 4500.
