May be some sort of a company policy.
And you may have unknowingly signed on it along with the 40-50 account opening documents!

. According to him, it states that if an account has been opened and did not do a trade of at least 500/- in the first month, the demat account will be blocked.

Now it will take 4 to 5 working days for the account to re-open.

Guys , Can you kindly point out to the right direction on the time frames the markets are closed when they hit the circuit limits. Believe its time for me to GET OUT of the market today.

Thanks

Opens at 11:55 and may get closed at 20% circuit pretty soon.
BSE already says the sensex was at 13963 when the market halted.
Will there be trading today!

KSM-Vtec · 18th May 2009, 11:37

if it hits the 20% circuit then trading will be suspended for the entire day.

DAMN! I was waiting till the election results to do my buying as I was under the impression that the stocks would take a dip (assuming a hung verdict) its all topsy turvy now!

I am itching to buy at this time but the real fear in my mind is that this rally is driven more by sentiment than by fundamentals.
There will probably be a correction in due time and hence an opportunity to buy.

black12rr · 18th May 2009, 12:01

Closed again .......

.It hit the circuit .

lambuhere1 · 18th May 2009, 12:09

Is it confirmed?
So, could it start from this closing value tommorrow?

tsk1979 · 18th May 2009, 12:12

Upper circuit!! Whoa. Tata motors crosses 300rs, and Bharti airtel crosses 1000!
Can't sell Tata before November(long term gain thingy). I think I will offload the midcaps and smaller companies after losses go down a bit, and hang on the NTPC/TML/Hindalco/NIITTECH/Bharti/Suzlon

hillram · 18th May 2009, 12:14

Post election results,stock market will swing haywire..im sure.

PatienceWins · 18th May 2009, 12:15

Market is up 2099 points today.

bharanidharang · 18th May 2009, 12:23

market closed for today ! after breaking the second circuit filter too.

rajneeesh · 18th May 2009, 13:05

I think the marke will rlly for a few days as a result of the euphoria. It is time when one can start offloading the "not so good shares" . All scrips irrespective of the fundamentals have gone up. It would not be too much to expect the market to touch 15500- 16000 before the end of the week.
