➤Arihant Capital Products and Services

1. Equity Trading & Investment: When it comes to stock market investments the most prevalent word comes to every investor’s mind is the word “EQUITY”.  

The majority of the first time investors start their stock market career with equities. There are very few beginner level investors and traders actually understand the meaning of Equity.

There are many things one should know before trading in equity-like, what are the risks it carries? How many returns you can expect over a span of time? Equity is basically the owner of a company n the form of stake.

2. Derivative Trading: Derivatives are one of the most complex financial instrument as well as the most rewarding elements too. 

It is a trading mechanism in which investors enter into an agreement to trade in a future date or at a certain price. The proper analyzing the future value of the assets of the derivative you expected.

Derivatives’ trading is the best of both short and long term investors. The process is normal as we can buy and sell easily.

3. Currency Trading: As we all know currency trading is a challenging segment to perform effectively. It is basically the process of buying and selling of foreign exchange and currencies. 

It is the largest financial market of the world as more than $5 trillion of world currencies are traded daily. It is the most challenging, adventurous, form of trading, which is mainly dominated by big players like banks and financial institutions, it also provides scope to big retail investors too.

4. Commodity Trading: It is one of the newest or upcoming forms of trading in India. Commodities are an integral part of everyone’s life and trading in commodities is immemorial. 

Nowadays the concept of commodity trading is totally changed.  In olden days we used to trade in cattle metals spices, grains, etc. but now the commodities are traded online over commodities exchanges and no involvement of actual delivery.

5. Depository Service: A Depository in a medium that helps the trader or investors to perform buying and selling stocks and bonds in a paperless manner.

We can say securities in depository accounts are similar to funds in your bank accounts.

6. Mutual Funds: Investing in mutual funds is somehow an opportunity to earn higher returns. The main benefit of a mutual fund over stock investing is the less risk factor involved.

Assets Management Companies (AMCs) generated funds from multiple investors through different mutual funds schemes.

After generating enough funds, proper planning is done to invest it in different financial products, such as equities, debt, and government bonds and securities. In India there are basically three types of mutual funds:

     • Open-Ended & Close Ended: The main advantage of Open-Ended mutual funds schemes is that you may enter or exit at any time as per your requirements.

However, in the case of Close-Ended mutual fund Schemes, we don’t have such flexibility. In closed Ended scheme you invested and you can only exist during the specified time.

     • Small-Cap, Mid-Cap, & Large-Cap Fund: The classification is totally based on the size of the company on which the money is invested.

Large-Cap mutual funds invest a larger portion of the money to the companies with high or greater market value /capitalization. 

These types of mutual funds are less risky because the money invested in the companies has a huge market capitalization and superior performance based on the last few years’ records.

However, in the case of Mid-Cap mutual funds, the investment is done to the mid-sized companies. The level of risk is a bit high when compared to Large –Cap mutual funds but there is always a chance of higher returns.

Lastly, Small-Cap mutual funds are very high-risk rates but the returns are even higher. In this scheme, we basically invest in small companies where there is always a chance of high exponential growth in later stages.

     • Balanced, Debt, and Equity Funds: The other way to classify mutual funds based on where it is invested. If someone invests in stocks, then we can say it is an Equity mutual fund. 

However, if a scheme utilized most of its funds in debts products like government securities, corporate bonds or fixed deposits. 

Then it is known as debt fund. Finally, a special scheme in which the funds are equally invested in both equity and debt products, that type of funding scheme is called balanced funds.

7. IPO: IPO is known as Initial Public Offering, it is the way in which a private sector company turns into public and provides its shares to traders and investors. The main reason behind IPO filling is a company generally wants funds from private levels.

8. NRI Demat Account: It is an investment option for the Indians living outside India. With NRI Demat Account, they can invest in the Indian stock market even staying outside the country.

It is true that the Indian stock market is growing day by day and it’s the best option to trade and invest.

9. Brokerage Calculator: An individual can perform his/her entire brokerage costs and other transaction charges using a brokerage calculator. Based on the trading pattern for both Intraday and Delivery can be monitored using a calculator.

The brokerage calculator not only calculates delivery but also trading expenses like STT, stamp duty, exchange transaction charges.

10. Margin Calculator: It is the most vital tool in the trading field. To calculate the compressive margin while trading equity, F&O, currency, and commodity we use a Margin calculator.

The margin calculator calculates the exposure margin as well as span margin based on the volatility of exchanges.
