There are many incidents where investors have faced huge losses. For example- For a registered broker with BSE and NSE, price of Reliance Securities is directly connected to both and the price feeds are made available by the exchanges. However, clients across the country do face connectivity issues at times due to their poor internet connection or bandwidth. This is particularly true for remote areas and clients connecting through BSNL and MTNL. So how to do away with such issues?

Shares disappear from demat account

idea posted by Jyoti Rath Sr. Associate, Barclays

It’s important to write down the shares you own, save copies of contract notes and routinely check your demat account. If shares are missing, the broker has to be contacted immediately. Always check demat account after a day of high volatility in the markets and at the end of every month.

To add to the above idea- there can be instances where you buy MFs online, most of the time your only option would be to redeem it online also. See if there is a redemption link for the scheme you are buying.

Install own DNS Server or use an open Internet DNS

idea posted by Sanjay Arora CEO/MD/Director, Videh International Pvt. Ltd.

Many times delays on Indian ISP connections, especially BSNL & MTNL, are not actually slow, only their DNS Servers are overwhelmed/overloaded. This results in a bottleneck in DNS reply and to the user it seems as if the Internet is slow....it is not actually, most of the time.

One can use an open Internet DNS server like openDNS or better yet, install your own DNS Server (some are available free of cost or for nominal cost, on the net). You will find amazing change in apparant speed.

High Brokerage on small transactions.

idea posted by Sanjay Arora CEO/MD/Director, Videh International Pvt. Ltd.

Many Brokers penalize small transactions. ICICIdirect charges almost 2% brokerage when transaction is less that 500 Rs. Such practives should be discouraged by customers. I am churning from ICICIdirect....End of Story ;-)

Ticker not updated

idea posted by Hitesh Moghe Associate, Barclays

This is what happened with me. I bought various lots of  Reliance stock through the morning, and had set myself a stop loss of Rs 268.50. The ticker on online portal, Reliance Money, showed the price was Rs 272. Based on this, I bought even more shares. By evening, close to end of trading, when I sought to sell his shares, I saw that the price had fallen sharply to Rs 262.90, and the portal was showing a wrong figure on the ticker. This can happen to anyone. Open NSE and BSE websites (www.nseindia.com, www.bseindia.com) and verify prices before placing order.

It’s always advisable to make sure that the connection is not slow or interrupted by any other disturbances. Have some sort of back-up to which you can rely before taking any decision based on the information showing up on your laptop or PC.

Delay between filling in application form and getting username and password

idea posted by Sudhir Shirke Associate,bulls Research

There is actually a delay between both the above said processes. Now I advise is to approach two or three brokers after assessing their brokerage and checking references with users. Don't restrict yourself to one. Follow up constantly. Speak to regional sales/marketing manager, escalate to head office.

Discrepancies in things like tax and brokerage

idea posted by Sandip Gunjal Sr. Associate, Irevna

The contract note always comes handy.  Always verify your contract note. Individually calculate your service tax and brokerage. Do not assume the contract note is accurate.
