How to Be a Stock Broker in India

Take a course in stock brokering. The National Stock Exchange (NSE) and the Bombay Stock Exchange (BSE), among other institutes, offer certified courses in stock brokering. These courses are related to capital markets, investment, financial planning, equity research, securities and portfolio analysis and other certificate courses.
Work at a stock brokering firm. One of the criteria for becoming a stock broker in India is to have a minimum of two years' work experience at a stock brokering firm or in a field related to securities or financial services.
Determine what type of services you want to offer as a stock broker. Some brokers offer a wide range of financial products such as stocks, bonds, derivatives and insurance. They may also offer services that include investment advice, investment strategies and in-depth research and analysis. Other brokers may only execute trades without offering investment advice, and may charge lower fees.
Ensure that you have adequate infrastructure and finances to register and operate as a stock broker. One of the criteria the Securities Exchange Board of India (SEBI) considers while evaluating your application as a stock broker is whether you have the required office space, equipment and manpower to work effectively as a stock broker. If you intend to become an online stock broker, you must provide a reliable online stock trading platform that offers access to stock exchanges and depositories and functions without technical glitches.
Register as a stock broker with SEBI. Stock brokers in India are governed by the SEBI Act of 1992, which requires stock brokers to first register with SEBI, who will evaluate your application to see if you are eligible to become a stock broker before issuing you a registration certificate.
Become a member of a stock exchange. Besides registering with the SEBI, stock brokers must become members of one or more stock exchanges such as the NSE and the BSE. The application forms are closely evaluated by the exchanges before granting membership. Most major exchanges require stock brokers to pay a security deposit and a membership fee, which usually involve a considerable expense.
Market your services as a stock broker to attract clients. Word-of-mouth publicity and customer referrals are usually the best ways to get more business as a stock broker. If your portfolio performs well, leverage that to win the confidence of potential customers.

How to Pull out of the Stock Market (5 Steps)

Place sell orders for all of your stocks and stock mutual funds. Sell your shares at market to get the fastest execution and current market price. If the markets are tanking on the day when you do this, place your orders immediately. If the market is rising that day, you might be wise to wait a little while to see if you can get a slightly higher price.
Contact your variable annuity or variable life insurance carrier and tell them to move all of your money out of any sub-accounts that invest in stocks. Move the money either into the fixed account, the money market fund or other sub-accounts that invest in bonds, real estate or other asset classes.
Place limit orders on your stock sales if you are not in an urgent hurry to get out of the market. If the stock has been vacillating in a price range for a while, place a limit order near the high end of the price range and wait for the stock price to rise to that level. This strategy can make a big difference in how much you end up with, particularly if you have a large number of shares to sell.
Wait until you have held your stocks for at least one year before selling if you are near that threshold already and aren't in a desperate hurry to sell. This is wise if your stocks have appreciated substantially, because you will pay a lower rate of tax on your gains if you have held your stocks for at least a year to the day before selling them.
Wait at least until the market rebounds somewhat if you are selling because the market dropped severely in a single day. The stock market is almost certain to take a dead cat bounce back up at some point, and waiting for this to happen can be a wise choice in many cases.
