The ledger below is empty because the record is only 16 sessions old and nothing has yet left the portfolio. The open book is real and marked to the last close.
The rule, as implemented here
every condition, in the order it is applied
Price-earnings multiple no more than 15.
Price-to-book no more than 1.5, or the product of the two no more than 22.5.
Profitable in each of the last four reported quarters.
Debt no more than equity.
Revenue higher than a year ago.
Ranking: Lowest product of the two multiples first. Portfolio is the top 12 names, equal-weighted.
Where our version differs: Graham asks for ten years of unbroken profit and a current ratio of two; the filings here give four quarters of profit and no current assets, so those two tests are the four-quarter record and total debt against equity.

Booked positions
closed, with the market over the identical days
No position has closed yet. A name closes when the rules drop it or when it has been held 60 sessions, whichever comes first — so the first entries appear here about 60 sessions after the book opened.
How these numbers were made. Computed here from NSE and BSE end-of-day bhavcopy, adjusted for splits and bonuses, not supplied by anyone being measured. Portfolios are recorded on the day they are published and scored forward from that date, so no figure on this page could have been chosen after the outcome was known. The code that produced them is stamped in build.json.
This is our implementation, not Benjamin Graham (defensive)’s portfolio. Graham asks for ten years of unbroken profit and a current ratio of two; the filings here give four quarters of profit and no current assets, so those two tests are the four-quarter record and total debt against equity. None of the authors named on this site are associated with it, and nothing here is advice or a recommendation to buy or sell anything.
