Process of Share Market

Let us understand the Working of a share market.

To learn about how you can earn on the stock market, one has to understand how it works. When a person want to buy/sell shares in the share market then he has to first place the order with a broker or can do themselves using online trading systems.
When you place the buy order, the message is transferred to the exchange [either NSE {National Stock Exchange} or BSE {Bombay Stock Exchange}] and the order stays in the queue of exchange’s other orders and gets executed if the price of that share comes to that value. Once you get the confirmation of this transaction, the shares purchased, will be sent to your demat account. The shares will be stored in demat account in electronic format.

Rolling Settlement Cycle: (RSC)

RSC means when you will get your shares in your demat account.
In a rolling settlement, each trading day(T) is considered as a trading period and trades executed during the trading day(T) are settled on a T+2 basis i.e. trading day plus two working days. So the conclusion is on forth working day you will get the shares in your demat account.

In India there are two such organizations called NSDL (National Securities Depository Ltd.) and CDSL (Central Depository Services India Ltd.)

d) Investor’s wishing to open Demat account has to go DP and open the account.

e) Opening the Demat account is as simple as opening the saving bank account with any bank.
As you need bank account to save money, deposit cheques etc, likewise you need to have a demat account to buy and sell stocks in share market and to hold the shares.

f) All shares what you own will show in your demat account, so you don’t have to possess any physical certificates. All your shares are all held electronically in your demat account.
