1. Other the annual reports you can go for companies websites, financial websites like moneycontrol.com , dsij.in, etc. You can also get information from news and business newspapers. For a wise investment decision you need to keep your eyes open about what is happening in the market. All the Best
2. set pre-defined criteria say search for companies: 1. Directors/Chairman have to have bought large amounts of shares in the stock recently. 2. Market Capitalisation is less than £100m. 3. PEG ratio is less than 0.7 (although this is wavered slightly if, for example a stock is on the verge of breaking out -- or you just have a "feeling"). 4. The PEG Ratio has been under 1 for 3 of the last 4 financial years. 5. EPS has risen by 15% or more in 3 of the last 4 financial years. 6. The company is making a profit. 7. The company has no/few/competitors/is the market leader.
