Though the company is under obligation to offer the securities in both physical and
demat mode, you have the choice to receive the securities in either mode.
f you wish to have securities in demat mode, you need to indicate the name of the
depository and also of the depository participant with whom you have depository
account in your application.
t is, however desirable that you hold securities in demat orm as physical securities
carry the risk of being fake, forged or stolen.
/ust as you have to open an account with a bank if you want to save your money, make

things you had always dreamed of doing with a little extra cash in your pocket. %lso, it8s
exciting to review your investment returns and to see how they are accumulating at a
faster rate than your salary.
%hen to Invest?
The sooner the better. &y investing into the market right away you allow your
investments more time to grow, whereby the concept of compounding interest swells
your income by accumulating your earnings and dividends. #onsidering theunpredictability of the markets, research and history indicates these three golden rules
or all investors
. nvest early
s tempting to wait for the Wbest timeA to invest, especially in a rising market,remember that the risk of waiting may be much greater than the potential rewards of
participating. Trust in the power of compounding. #ompounding is growth via
reinvestment of returns earned on your savings. #ompounding has a snowballing effectbecause you earn income not only on the original investment but also on the reinvestment
of dividend=interest accumulated over the years. The power of compounding is one of the
most compelling reasons for investing as soon as possible. The earlier you start investingand continue to do so consistently the more money you will make. The longer you leave
your money invested and the higher the interest rates, the faster your money will grow.
That8s why stocks are the best long!term investment tool. The general upwardmomentum of the economy mitigates the stock market volatility and the risk of losses.That>s the reasoning behind investing for long term rather than short term.
How much to invest?
There is no statutory amount that an investor needs to invest in order to generate ade)uate
returns from his savings. The amount that you invest will eventually depend on factorssuch as"

Follow these 8asic /ules while Investing
Most of us are confused where to put in our money and where not to invest our hard
earned money. fount the rules mentioned below )uite helpful. My suggestion is !ustfollow the directions given below and am sure, some of you may save lot of money
going down the drain. 'ere it is"
/ule 2- "on0t buy unlisted shares
There are over :-,--- public limited companies in ndia, of which only around L,--- arelisted on the country>s various stock exchanges. The first rule of profitable share
investment is to confine your buying to these L,--- listed companies only.
Stock exchanges do not permit trading in unlisted shares, nor do they permit their
registered members, i.e. brokers to deal in unlisted shares. Therefore, if you want to buyunlisted shares you won>t get the protection of the stock exchangeauthoritiesU nor will
you be able to use the services of your stockbroker in handling such transactions.Moreover, in the absence of stock exchange )uotations you won>t be able to assess whatthe market price of an unlisted share should be. %ll these factors create complications and
risks, which you are not likely to be in a position to handle. %s a basic rule, therefore, you
should avoid investing in shares of unlisted companies.
.o- does one kno- -hether a share is listed or nott>s simpleU all shares whose pricesare )uoted in daily newspapers or websites are listed shares. Gnlisted shares are )uoted.
Therefore, the fact that a share is 9uotedmeans that it must be listed. This is the easiest
and surest way of fining out whether a particular share is listed or not.
/ule

)uoted price of each of share, but also the date when it was last transacted. This
information can help you to confirm whether a particular share is inactive. #heck out
&SE or 0SE $ebsites
Inactive s#arescan generally be bought at very low prices. This is obvious since such
shares generally find no buyers. nexperienced investors looking for bargains are oftenattracted to such shares by virtue of their low prices. This is how beginners are normally
trapped in to making disastrous investments, &eware of such bargainsV f you comeacross a bargain, remember there has to be catch in it somewhere. t is better to hunt for
value, and pay a fair for it than to look for such apparent bargains.
0very time you buy a s#are6 you must remember t#at one day you &ill &ant to sell it3 I,
you are likely to ,ace di,,iculty in selling it 7 don5t buy itV This is a sound investment
principle, which you should never lose sight of, no, matter how cheap or attractive a
particular investment may appear to be. 0ever allow yourself to get caught with illi)uid
share. They are only pieces of paper without any value. Shares have value only when
they are readily encashable.
+f course, it is possible that a share, which is inactive today, could become active
tomorrowU !ust as a share, which is active today, could become active tomorrow. t all
depends upon the degree of buying interest in a particular share. f buying interest buildsup in a share, it can easily move from the inactive to the active category.
/ule- = "on0t buy shares in closely held companies-
$hether a company is widely held or closely held depends upon the number of
shareholders it has. n this book, we will draw the line at 9,--- shareholders. Companies
-ith less than 0*111 shareholders -ill !e considered as closely held,
Shares of closely held companies tend to be less active than those of widely held ones
since they have a fewer number of shareholders and, thus, a smaller floating stock of
shares. Shares of such companies tend to be ignored by the general public. 4argeinstitutional investors also tend to avoid closely held companies. %s a result their shares
do not get sufficient price support, which they would otherwise have got if they had been
widely held. Moreover, it is always much easier to manipulate the share prices of aclosely held company than those of a widely held one.
Share prices of closely held companies also tend to be more volatile than others. $hen
they rise they rise very fast, and to a very high level. #onversely, when they fall they doso very fast and to a very low level. %s a result, it is generally very difficult to buy sharesin a closely held company when prices are rising, and very difficult to sell them when
prices are falling. nvesting in such shares re)uires a high degree of expertise, knowledge,
alertness and )uick thinking, which take years of active investing to ac)uire. $e would,therefore, strongly urge you to keep away from such shares.

$hile concerns about online security will always be there, rest assured that the
brokerages themselves have a very, very high stake in making you feel comfortable about
the level of security being used. #ll online brokerages have a portion of their websitedevoted to explaining the measures they employ to protect your transactions.
'ere are a few )uestions that you may have regardingOnline $rading in Stocks3
(s trading through the (nternet safe
The safety of transactions on the nternet depends on the encryption system used. The
better this transaction system, the more difficult it is for any person to hack the site.nternationally, the best system available today is the :I1bit encryption.
Secondly, you too can ensure the safety of the transactions online. 2ou normally get a
secured user id and password, the secrecy of which is to be maintained entirely by you.
Thirdly, if the transaction system re)uires no manual intervention, you further improvethe safety in the transactions. %mong ndian sites, very few are fully integrated online
trading sites. This enables the elimination of the possibility of any manual intervention,
which means orders are directly sent to the exchange ensuring that you get the best andright price.
Is trading through Internet "iicult ?
The experience of trading through nternet depends a great deal on the type of product
offered by the site. Say, for example, one of the issues bothering you may be getting tired
of the paperwork involved after every trade, in writing che)ues.
nonline trading sites, the greater the back1end integration of the system, the greater the
amount of work the sites do for you, therefore greater the convenience available to you.
n big financial institutions your broking account, bank account and "emat accountare
linked electronically. So when you punch in a buy or sell order, the system checks thefunds=shares availability and automatically credits=debits the accounts once the order is
executed by the exchange.
Is trading through Internet a costly aair?
The convenience provided by online trading is even then worth the costs involved.
%nd online trading sites are not that costly. For example, a trader can trade shares onmargin at rates as low as -.- and if one wishes to trade in cash, then the rates
applicable are as low as -.@.
'owever, it is important to compare various online trading sites on brokerage rates,
inclusive of all sub1charges.

Short Selling &he 8asics %hat is short Selling ?
Short selling is selling the shares which you do not own. The term WshortX here
signifies that you do not hold the shares being sold. The first thought popping up in yourmind would be ; where do these shares come from which you are selling without
possessing them in your portfolio of stocks. These come from your broker=brokerage firm
that lends you the shares in lieu of your investment as collateral. 2ou short sell these
shares but subse)uently you have to close the short by buying back the shares frommarket and then return it to your broker=brokerage firm. 2ou are also charged some
interest for the loan of shares you have taken. &elow diagram describes the flow of sharesinvolved in short selling

Short Selling
4ooking at the flow of shares in above flowchart, one would ponder why to borrowshares for selling in market and then transfer them back to the lenderO The logic behind
shorting is very simpleU earning proit margin. 4et>s see howOO
f you think a stock is overvalued and expect that the price would come down in future
for sureU you would wish to sell t#e s#ares at current levels at #ig#er price. So youborrow the shares and sell them at higher price. %nd when the stock actually falls as you
had speculatedU you buy it from market at lower price and return it to the lender and the
dierence between the selling price 6higher7 and buy price 6lower7 is what you
earned in the deal. So at the end you must close the short by paying back the shares and
this is called as Wcovering the shortX. 'oncluding t#is,investors o anticipate ,all in t#e
stock price go s#ort to take advantage o, market ,all3%n investor can hold the short for aslong as he wants but he is charged an interest as it is similar to a loan taken in the form of
shares. %lso if during the course of loan, the company declares dividend or rights issue, it
must be paid to the lender who is the actual owner of shares because you are !ust a
borrower.
Short selling is considered to destabiliAe markets directly or indirectly. n :--, the stock
prices crashed heavily owing to short selling by big operators after which SE& banned it.
%fter a gap of C years in 3ecember :--L SE& came up with updated norms of short
selling to cover the loopholes and ultimately institutional investor were also permitted toshort sell.
#oncluding this, short selling no doubt gives you an opportunity to earn profit by taking
advantage of downturn of markets, it might bring in huge loss to your investment if stockprice moves up. &ecause in real sense, shorting is a bet against the current market trend.
$hen stock is at current higher levels, you are expecting it to fall down and entering the
arena. Speculation is what makes shorting a riskier !ob. So beware of the dark side of
shorting before you actually go for itV

>olatility o Stock *arkets and its causes
>olatility is one o the best phenomenon without which stock markets will loose its
charm. t is t#e tendency o, ,luctuation o, market indices over a period o, timeU more isthe fluctuation, higher is the volatility. The ups and downs o stock pricesis what that
adds spice to the market behaviour. This see1sawing effect has its own implications, bothgood and bad. ?ood, because prudent investors taking advantage buy on dips and sell onhighs for profit booking. +n the flip side, greater volatility lowers investor>s confidence
in the market prompting them to transfer their investment in less risky options due to
unexpected market behaviour.
'aving observed the past ma!or events of volatility, one can realise the root cause asWunanticipated in,ormationX breaking out in the market. 8#en t#is ne&s stabilises6
volatility vanis#es because t#e uncertainty related dies out3
Few examples from recent past"
[ ?ovt announced buying of shares=bonds of ndian companies through participatory
notes 6*07.
[ +// and repo rates hike by /8I.
[ Satyam iascoand 4ehman>s bankruptcy news.
[ Stringent I$ regulations.
[ ,S recession ear. /an :, :--I saw biggest ever fall of @-I points due to volatilityon account of GS fears of recession.
0ow the )uestion arises how this uncertainty leads to such aftershocks in market.
Firstly,investments by FIIshave a ma!or influence on movement of S()S(Dwhich
came into limelight during general elections of :--@. +wing to fear of reforms due to
new government there was continued selling pressure by Fs resulting in sharp decline inthe index. 4ater on when the news regarding these reforms stabilised, Fs started buying
back the shares they sold earlier. Thus aiming at pro,it booking and balancing t#e
port,olio, Fs keep relocating their funds from time to time. For example if they findgovt policies not in their favour, they would withdraw their investments from ndian
markets and invest in some other market leading to sudden crash in index.
Secondly, Indian markets are sensitive to global markets. t has been observed that
many times if 0%S3%5 closes high, SE0SE opens in green. So an unwanted newsbroke out in GS may show its effects in ndian markets leading to intra%day volatility.
Thirdly, company speciic news may cause volatile sessions in the market. From
recent example of Satyam computersltd, markets were highly volatile due to investor>ssentiment being in dilemma and anticipations about the future of company and related
conglomerates.

Mutual Funds &asics
'aving been through basics, one can infer that investing in mutual unds is an easy wayo playing sae in e9uity especially you being unaware of tactics of stock marketsbecause it provides professional expertise of fund managers who make investment
decisions based on constant study and market research. &esides this, it offers benefits likediversification of portfolio. Since mutual fund is a collective investment vehicle, they
have an option to invest in different sectors of market like retail, real estate in addition tooptions like debt and commodities market. This reduces the risks to which an individual
investor would have been exposed if a particular sector is in period of downfall. The
simplicity of investment and various benefits offered have made them so popular that canbe seen from their growth in past. They came into picture in BCD with CLbn assets
