Harshad Mehta Bull Run: A Trip Down Memory Lane
Harshad Mehta, also known as the “Big Bull,” was a stockbroker who orchestrated one of the most significant financial scams in India’s history. The saga began in the late 1980s when Mehta, through a clever manipulation of banking regulations, started diverting funds from the banking system into the stock market. He used a technique known as “circular trading” to artificially inflate the prices of certain stocks, creating a bull run that seemed unstoppable.
