Equity Investment FAQs

Your Questions, Answered

What documents are required for Equity investment?

To start investing in Equities, you will need identity proof (such as Aadhaar or Passport), address proof (such as utility bill or bank statement), PAN card, and bank account details for linking.

What are the risks associated with Equity investments?

The major risk associated with Equity investments is market risk, as stock prices can fluctuate based on market conditions. Other risks include impact costs when investing in illiquid stocks, the potential for price manipulation in penny stocks, losses due to tracking errors in Exchange Traded Funds (ETF) and fraud risk. With proper research, trusted investment partners, and a long-term perspective, investors can manage these risks effectively.

Can I make investments in the share market with a small budget?

Yes, it is possible to invest in Equities with a small budget. Registered stockbrokers like Anand Rathi offer investment options suited for beginners, allowing you to start small and build your portfolio over time.

How do I choose the right stocks to invest in?

Selecting the right stocks requires understanding your investment goals, risk tolerance, and market trends. Our research services and stock recommendations provide personalized guidance to help you make informed choices.

What are the trading hours for Equities?

In India, the Equity market is typically open from 9:15 AM to 3:30 PM IST, Monday to Friday, excluding public holidays.

Who can undertake online Equity trading in India?

Anyone over 18 years of age with a KYC compliant bank account can conduct online Equity trading in India. Non-resident Indians (NRIs) can also invest in the Indian stock market following specific guidelines.

What are the tax implications of investing in Equities?

In India, gains from Equities held for more than one year are considered long-term capital gains (LTCG) and are taxed at 10% on gains exceeding ₹1 lakh. Short-term capital gains (from Equities held for less than a year) are taxed at 15%.

How does investing in Equities differ from trading?

Investing in Equities focuses on long-term growth and wealth generation by holding stocks over months or years. Equity trading involves buying and selling stocks over short periods, aiming to profit from short-term price movements.

What factors influence stock prices?

Stock prices are influenced by factors like company performance, industry trends, economic conditions, global events, guidance from promoters, and investor sentiment. Demand and supply dynamics also play a significant role in daily price fluctuations.

What is the role of dividends in Equity investment?

Dividends are periodic payouts from a company's profits to shareholders. For investors, dividends can provide a steady income stream and serve as an indicator of a company's financial stability and profitability. Stocks known for significant dividends are often seen as attractive long-term investments.

Is investing in Equity markets the right strategy for me?

Equity investment is generally suited for investors with a moderate to high-risk tolerance and a long-term investment horizon. While it has historically offered favourable returns, those seeking short-term stability or low-risk investments must balance the Equity component in their portfolio with fixed income investments to meet their goals reliably.

How can I manage risk when I invest in Equities?

Risk in equity investments can be managed by building a diversified portfolio, focusing on high-quality stocks, and maintaining a long-term perspective. Regular research and reviewing your investments can help to stay aligned with your goals in the long term.

How does Equity compounding work?

Compounding in Equities occurs when reinvested earnings generate additional returns. By holding investments over a longer term, investors benefit from compounded growth as their earnings reinvest and grow over time.

Can I invest in foreign Equities through the Indian stock market?

Yes, Indian investors can invest in foreign equities through our Gift City arm or through certain Mutual Funds or ETFs that track international markets.
