    Hi Anonymous,

    This exam is not difficult, only thing is to have your understanding clear about the concept. From the 12 Chapters, Chapter No 6 is having some NAV calculations which are easy and comes in exam which will save your marks. So prepare on this.

    I am not aware of the Practice Book you named, I suggest buy the NISM Study Material when you register and read that. That is sufficient to pass the exam.

    Dear Nilesh:
    1.How can I send you an email.? 2.Who collects the Financial Advisor's Fees - the FA or the MF? 3.What about Sevice Tax ? 4. Is there a Tax Audit if the annual Fee Income exceeds Rs.60lakhs. 7. Then is there a TDS angle? 8. Where are the correct answers to the mock tests? 9.Finally,since you are a qualified enginner, do you find being a FA profitable ?
    Thanks,
    Jamshed F. Mehta,
    Mumbai.

    Nifty includes 50 stocks, so if somebody is trading with nifty stocks as a day trader than that comes under intraday nifty. So for the better understanding we must clear with the fact that intraday trading is absolutely different from normal stock investment. The basic difference between these two things is buying and selling of stocks can be conclude in the same day in day trading whether in normal investment or long term investments it does not happen.
