Zee Business managing editor Anil Singhvi recommended selling Polycab India shares with a stop loss at Rs 4,900 for targets below Rs 4,800, Rs 4,550 and Rs 4,375.

Preliminary analysis suggests that the flagship company indulged in unaccounted cash sales, cash payments for unaccounted purchases, non-genuine transport and sub-contracting expenses, etc for suppression of its taxable income.
