Before asking a question, you may search in yahoo itself to find out whether similar questions were asked earlier. For your information a similar question was asked a month ago and the best answer was:

"Finance is a very complex subject. Investment is also a very wide and complex sub-subject under finance. Share Investment is definitely not easy subject.

One way is read a lot on the subject. Newspapers ( The Economic times, business standard ), magazines ( business india, business today ), websites ( for authentic company specific news - bseindia.com and nseindia.com ), for analytical reports and info on ratios etc ( www.icicidirect.com - research section and sharekhan website )

One more way is meet experienced people, keep meeting and discussing with them. Exchange ideas and views. Learn.

Another is , if you are in Mumbai, go to Bombay Stock Exchange and enroll for various courses they hold. Bit costly but then you wish to learn.

Last ( but not the least ) : keep ask specific questions in this forum. Get answers and learn.

Please feel free to ask / email to me, too. Am in the same field as a professional for last several years. For very basic terminology visit my website www.askniting.com. I am based in Mumbai.

Best luck."

First of all open a Demat account either with a Bank or a Broker (eg ICICI Bank ; http://www.icicidirect.com , Sharekhan; http://www.sharekhan.com , India bulls etc).

Then slowly start investing in IPOs which are relatively safe and give good return on listing. As you go on you will get a feel of market and then you can start investing in secondary market.

Regarding tips, so start watching CNBC TV18, NDTV Profit, CNBC Awaaz and Zee Business. They have very good coverage of stock market, and some of the program discuss stocks in detail where you can even ask questions related to stocks. It helps a lot in deciding where to invest.

Furthermore you can also invest in mutual funds, which donot give as good returns as the market, but the risk component is very less and the returns are quite decent.

Face value of a stock means the orignal price of the share as determined by the company e.g. a share can have a face value of Rs. 1,2, 5, 10 or 100. The market value of the stock is determined by trading in stock market which is usually different from the face value. Market price can be more or less than the face value depending on the performance of the company.

Use an online brokerage firm that has good beginner qualitys {like tutorials or easy to understand set up}, i use zecco, better then schwab, etrade, etc. they are the only ones with free stock trades, no minumums..all the others will charge you fees for trading, but compare and see for yourself. Good luck and happy investing!
