1) Do your own research or consult an investment advisor before


investing. Making investments based on tips through social media can
result in losses.

Brief : Investors should do their own research about the company whose
shares they intend to buy. Doing own research about the fundamentals of the
company is always advisable than relying on the tips and rumours making
rounds in the social media, which may be misleading.

2) Arbitration mechanism available with the Exchanges for settlement of


claims against listed companies.

companies whose shares they possess, by just approaching the nearest
regional investor service centre of the Exchange and file an arbitration case.
The arbitration is a quasi-judicial mechanism and the order passed is binding
upon the parties. Thus, investors will benefit from this time bond and very
effective claim settlement process.

pay the dividend to the shareholders within 30 days of its declaration.

investors to receive attractive commission/incentive if they invest their money
in those schemes. Investors should not fall for such schemes which offer
exceptionally high returns than the normal rate of returns received from any
regularised investment. This may result into losing their hard-earned money.

while opening a trading account. By giving POA they authorise the stock
broker to deal with their shares in the manner broker desire. Some brokers

Brief : There are many attractive products made available in market which
promise very high returns in short time. Many investors do not even
understand the basic features of these products and simply on advise from
somebody or watching some one doing, they invest in such products, which
are mostly unregulated. One of such product is Crypto Currency which is not
a legally recognised product in India and therefore it is unregulated. There is a
high risk in investing in such unregulated products, since investors may lose

recover the same.
