What are small cap, mid cap and large cap shares?
Cap is short for capitalization which is a measure by which we can classify a company's size. Big/large caps are companies which have a market cap between 10-200
billion dollars. Mid caps range from 2 billion to 10 billion dollars.
These might not be industry leaders but are well on their way to becoming one. Small caps are typically new or relatively young companies and have a market cap
between 300 million to 2 billion dollars.
Although their track record won't be as lengthy as that of the mid to mega caps, small caps do present the possibility of greater capital appreciation, but at the cost of
greater risk.

History.
Gopal Krishna Gokhale (1866-1915), Indian nationalist leader, who in the early years of the 20th century, was the most effective critic of British rule in India.
He was born in Kolhpur, studied at Elphinstone College, Bombay (now Mumbai), and became professor of history and political science in Pune (Poona). A
member of the Indian National Congress from its beginning, he was elected to the Mumbai Legislative Council in 1899 and from 1902 to 1914 represented
Mumbai on the viceregal council, where his authoritative comments on official finances were very influential. In 1905 he founded the Servants of India Society,
dedicated to training national missionaries for the service of India. Gokhale was an early influence on Mohandas K. Gandhi, who called him his political
guru.
Dadabhai Naoroji
Dadabhai Naoroji (1825-1917), father of Indian nationalism, known as the grand old man of India. Naoroji was the spiritual leader, or guru, of the generation
of nationalist leaders that included Mohandas Gandhi.
Naoroji was born in Mumbai (formerly known as Bombay) in 1825, the only child of a Parsi (Zoroastrian) priest. He studied at the Elphinstone College in
Mumbai. While still a student, Naoroji played a leading role in religious and social reform movements, helping to promote modern Western knowledge and to
alter certain traditional customs and practices. At the age of 27 he was appointed professor of mathematics at his alma mater. He was also a founder, in 1852, of
the Bombay Association, the first modern political organization in western India.
In 1855 Naoroji moved to England to become a partner in the mercantile firm of Cama and Company. While in England, he worked diligently for British
policies more favorable to India. He presented papers on various Indian subjects to learned societies in Liverpool and London, and in 1867 he helped set up the
East India Association in London. The purpose of the association was to publish accurate and up-to-date information on India and influence government policy.
Naoroji traveled to India to set up local branches of the association and to raise funds for the organization. In 1873 Naoroji became dewan (chief minister) of
the former state of Baroda, India, in an attempt to reform its administration. He resigned after about a year because of fundamental policy differences with its
ruler.
Naoroji became increasingly concerned about the widespread poverty in India. In The Poverty of India (1876) he claimed that British rule was resulting in a
drain of wealth from India to Britain. Mainly as a result of his leadership, economic questions became the focus of Indian nationalist concern for the next 30
years. Naorojis classic study, Poverty and un-British Rule in India (1901), played a significant role in stimulating economic nationalism in India.
In 1885 Naoroji helped to found the Indian National Congress, the movement that ultimately won independence for India. He served three times as its
presidentin 1886, 1893, and 1906. Naoroji was one of the first Indian leaders to declare that self-government, or swaraj, should be the goal of the
congress.
In 1892 he was elected to the British Parliament, representing the central London community of Finsbury. The first-ever Indian member of Parliament,
he was responsible for securing the appointment of a royal commission on Indian expenditure, and he served on it as its sole Indian member.
