1. We are optimistic on the prospects of Larsen and Toubro from the short term despite it playing a gamble of 12 percent stake in Satyam and it is holding 4 percent stake in the company at high valuation.

2. The stock has the capability to touch a price of Rs 1000 in a year time frame and it will be a decent return at present valuation as contrary to market trend when the companies are hiving off the employees and are going for downsizing, this company plans to add 10000 employees in 3 years time frame.
