This document analyzes investor behavior through a questionnaire. Most respondents were ages 36-50, invested for over 5 years, and preferred low risk with investments below Rs. 300,000. The majority traded or invested in large caps and used past performance and historical highs/lows to inform decisions. However, most were not satisfied with certain profits and exhibited loss-averse and herd-like behaviors instead of always creating efficient portfolios.
