Accounts which are inactive for more than 12 months will be flagged as ’Inactive’ in UCC database. We offer clients a pre-drafted email to request reactivation, there is no charge for this.

  6. F&O Covered puts: Say you are having money and wish to acquire a stock. The stocks current market price (CMP) is say 100Rs but you wish to buy for 95Rs. You will need to sell a Put at a strike price (SP) 95Rs and collect a small premium of say 1Rs. At contract closing if the stock is below 95Rs you will have to take delivery at 95Rs and will get to keep the the 1 Rs premium. If the stock closes above 95Rs you get to keep the 1Rs premium and the contract closes and you can repeat the process again until the stock falls below 95Rs all while collecting a steady premium income every month. Such trades require a margin deposit which can be in the form of Shares / Funds.
  7. How to participate - a) New client - Start a token SIP or SSIP for 10,000pm (min). You will receive monthly reports, stocks / funds will be picked / sold using information gleaned from our sources. b) Existing client - The fresh SIP or SSIP you start will be separate from your existing holdings and transactions, so that existing holding and your own transactions wont be disturbed.
  8. My overseas company provides me with health cover. Why would I need fresh health cover in India? - It is highly advantageous as NRI's will not face the risk of being rejected for cover in case they have a pre-existing disease when they finally arrive to settle in India. If you develop diabetes, coronary or renal problems you may not get coverage from Indian health insurers or it will be 2-3 times the price.
  9. Why is it advisable NOT to make any claims for first 5 years? - Every year without a claim, the coverage amount increases. After 5 years, the premium will still be the same but the cover will be much larger. This is highly advantageous, especially to NRI's as they can pay for their Indian health cover while they are still overseas but when they come to settle in India after 5-10 years the coverage would have increased significantly. 
  10. Rejected Trades & Contract notes - Bank's sometimes refuse to credit certain sale proceeds to clients NRE PIS a/c when it is unclear when the shares were bought or at what rate. This usually happens in the case of shares transferred in, bonus shares, dematted shares etc. Two options available are a) submit original hardcopy documentation along with 1,150rs processing charge and wait for bank to credit to NRE PIS b) ask that proceeds be credited to NRO instead, by return email. For this option there is no documentation, delay or charges. (Note: Client may utilize option to convert this and other accumulated NRO funds to NRE at some later date)
  11. Closing or Transfer-out of trading and demat a/c - Clients are requested to attend meeting to discuss a) tax implication (if liquidating) b) NRE/NRO implications if transferring out from NRE demat c) review and settle pending demat and trading debits. Closure will be effected not earlier than 15days but not later than 30days after the meeting and/or receipt of all documents such as DIS slips etc. Applicable documentation charges.
  12. F&O Portfolio Insurance - When you buy a car for 10 lakh you insure it against accident / theft to avoid loss. In the same way one can insure equity portfolio (Stock and Mutual funds) too from large collapse in the market. For example if you have a portfolio worth 10 Lakh, you can buy insurance (i.e. nifty Put options, for less than 0.30% monthly) to protect your portfolio partially from major falls. Check Calculation

The stocks current market price (CMP) is say 100Rs but you wish to sell for 105Rs. You will need to sell a Call at a strike price (SP) 105Rs and collect a small premium of say 1Rs.

If the stock closes below 105Rs you get to keep the 1Rs premium and the contract closes and you can repeat the process again until the stock rises above 105Rs all while collecting a steady premium income every month.

  20. Foreign Nationals, - Foreign nationals can invest via a Rupee denominated bank account under the Foreign Portfolio Investor (FPI) scheme. .
  21. Is it wise to choose only the highest performing funds at time of investment? -Most people intuitively feel secure knowing that their funds are the highest performing. However we have noticed that many good funds go through a slow patch for 2-3 years at a time (eg: HDFC Top 200 between 2011-2013) only to bounce back spectacularly later. Therefore, it is not wise to select funds solely on percentage performance basis. What is more important than the performance percentage is the quality of management / assets and other parameters that we verify before we certify a fund fit for investment
  22. How many funds to hold? - The largest mutual fund with 30,000cr portfolio has 80% of its investment in just 9 stock. Now you decide what is best for you
  23. RIght time / price to buy - Whatever you decide you will be right at one time and wrong at another point of time. As they say, even a broken watch shows the correct time 2 times a day. There is no right time to buy / sell. What is important is the system of regular investing and regular balancing, using SIP and SSIP
  24. RIght time to buy under SSIP - We have already tested data from the last 20 years, date of purchase makes no difference. Let say a SIP / SSIP is executed on the 25th, the next day the market falls. We are often asked why couldn't the purchase have been done on the 26th instead at lower cost? Didn't you know? Couldn't you wait a day more? Let us assume we buy on 26th, what happens then if the market falls further on the 27th or 28th? So which is the right time / price to buy? It is impossible to time the market but using Booster and Profit booking system built into the SSIP system, one can profit greatly
  25. Parameters: Clients can select date of the SIP / SSIP. We offer 5, 15 and 25th. Clients can also select Foundation Stocks (max 5 upto 3 crore) and Booster percentage (min 25%). Above preferences can be changed once a year, more frequent changes will require approval from management and expensive changes in Software.
  26. Credit: Credit facility may be offered to accounts in good standing, subject to management approval

  28. No Documents / Unclear prima facie value - If a) you do not have or do not want to share any documents that establish ownership and value or b) if you have documents but the prima facie recoverable value seems to be nil / unclear but you still wish to double check in the System / Company / RTA if there is some Value (Shares, pending dividends etc) to recover then there will be a charge of Rs 1,500 per folio/person/company payable in advance for the investigation. On receipt of payment and authorisation letter we will check System / Company / RTA and provide you with a detailed report on recoverable value.

  31. How long does IEPF take to credit back shares to demat account? It can 6 months or sometimes even 2 years depending on the company, RTA and IEPF respectively. IEPF is a govt. of India institution under the Ministry of corporate affairs (MCA) and is still in its early formative phase.
