FAQs

What is Kotak Research SMS, and what does it contain?

This is an SMS service through which one can receive equity research and market information updates during the day. It consists of fundamental research calls, technical research calls and market updates.

What is Fundamental research?

Fundamental research is based on fundamental analysis. It is a method of evaluating a security that entails attempting to measure its intrinsic value by examining related economic, financial and other qualitative and quantitative factors. Fundamental analysts study everything that can affect the security's value, including macroeconomic factors (like the overall economy and industry conditions) and company-specific factors (like financial condition and management).

What is Technical research?

Technical research is based on technical analysis and is defined as a method of evaluating securities by analyzing statistics generated by market activity, such as past prices and volume. Technical analysts do not attempt to measure a security's intrinsic value but instead, use charts and other tools to identify patterns that suggest future stock movements.

Can I choose the fundamental SMS pack as a monthly plan and the technical SMS pack as a yearly plan and vice versa?

No, plan choice is restricted to the same period only i.e., either monthly or yearly. However if you have subscribed to only one SMS type for yearly plan and would like to subscribe to the other also during the period you may do so. Charge for the second service as a proportion to days left in first service cycle would be charged. From following period / cycle (starting from end of first cycle of first service), we will charge as if "BOTH" were selected.
