EQUITY

WHAT IS EQUITY?

Equity as the name suggests is an equal partnership between several individuals. Buying an equity shares gives you a partnership with the promoter of the company. Hence, if you buy a share of Reliance Industries Ltd. you are entering into a business partnership with Mr. Mukesh Ambani. This relationship is governed by the Companies Act as well as SEBI rules. Hence standard rights and responsibilities are assigned to each partner.

We use the Stock Exchange Platform for investing in equity shares. During the trading hours you can buy the shares or sell them anytime during the day.

IS STOCK MARKET GAMBLING?

This is a wrong notion assigned by many. Gambling is a game of chance; Stock prices go up and down not because of chance but due to a systematic economic principle of demand and supply. Hence tossing the coin also follows a probability rule but assigning bets on flip of a coin is gambling. Stock market is a risk reduction mechanism. If your funds are lying in a bank the interest is so low that inflation will reduce the real value of income or if they are lying at home, someone may spend it for unintended purpose. Investments if done with proper advise and with knowledge can yield positive returns.

Remember, stock markets do not give easy money, lots of money or quick money. You must learn to earn
