11. How do I buy/sell shares? Buying and selling of shares is absolutely simple. You can either trade online or if you prefer speaking to someone and take advice before you buy or sell shares, you can always call and place a trade. For Eg. Kotak Securities offers a special online trading software called KEAT to view live rates and place instant orders. For others who prefer calling and placing orders there is the call and trade facility as well. While buying/selling a share, you must specify the name of the company, the quantity of shares you want to buy/sell and the price at which you want to buy/sell them. If you don’t specify the price, the shares will be bought/sold at the market rate prevalent at that time.

12. What are the benefits of online investing? Online investing is simple, quick and convenient. It eliminates the hassles of standing in long queues and carrying out tedious paperwork. You can buy/sell shares from home, office, or from any place where you have access to the Internet.

13. When do I get delivery of the shares that I buy and when do I get the money for the shares that I sell? Any transaction executed through the exchange is settled in T+2 days. Where, T denotes the day of order placement. This process of settlement is called a settlement cycle. For Eg: If you have sold shares on Monday you will receive the money in your trading account on Thursday. Similarly if you have bought shares on Monday you will get the shares in your demat account on Thursday.
