Question 1

Are you actually SEBI-registered, or do you just say that?

Accepted Answer

Yes - we are a SEBI-Registered Research Analyst, Registration Number INH000020396, and a BSE Enlisted RA Member, Enlistment Number 6696. You can verify this anytime directly on SEBI's website. Every recommendation we issue is under this registration, with documented processes, audit trails, and disclosures.

Question 2

What's the difference between a SEBI-registered RA and the free tip channels/Telegram groups I see online?

Accepted Answer

Unregistered tip providers answer to no one - no audit trail, no disclosures, no accountability, and often no real research behind the call. As a SEBI-registered RA, we're bound by SEBI's Research Analyst Regulations: our research process is documented, our conduct is auditable, and if we fall short, you have a formal escalation path through SEBI's SCORES portal, not just a muted Telegram group.

Question 3

Do you handle my money, place trades on my behalf, or need access to my trading account?

Accepted Answer

No. We never execute trades or handle funds. We give you the recommendation - entry, target, and stop-loss - and you execute it from your own account, at your own broker. Your capital, your account, your control, always.

Question 4

Are you an Investment Adviser (IA) or a Research Analyst (RA) - and does that matter?

Accepted Answer

We're registered as a Research Analyst. An RA's role is to research and recommend; unlike some advisory models, we don't manage your portfolio or take investment decisions for you. Every call is a recommendation for you to evaluate and execute - the decision stays yours.

Question 5

Do you guarantee profits or a fixed return?

Accepted Answer

No - and we'd encourage you to be cautious of anyone who does. SEBI registration, BSE enlistment, or NISM certification never guarantee performance or assure returns, and neither do we. What we do provide is disciplined, research-backed recommendations with defined risk on every trade. Past performance is never a promise of future results.

Question 6

What if I don't make money in my first week or month?

Accepted Answer

Markets don't move in straight lines, and no single week or month is a fair test of a research process. What matters is whether the process - risk-reward discipline, stop-loss adherence, consistent position sizing - is being followed over a meaningful period. We're honest about this upfront: short-term outcomes vary, and our focus is on giving you a repeatable way to work in this market, not a lucky streak.

Question 7

Why do you talk so much about discipline and consistency instead of just accuracy?

Accepted Answer

Because accuracy alone is a misleading number - a service can have high accuracy and still lose money if losses aren't controlled, or lower accuracy and still be very profitable if the risk-reward is right. We'd rather build your confidence in a process you can repeat for years than sell you a percentage that sounds good on a landing page.

Question 8

What is your risk management approach?

Accepted Answer

Every recommendation is built around a minimum 1:2 risk-reward ratio - meaning the potential target is at least double the defined risk. This way, even a series of losses stays small relative to your wins over time.

Question 9

Why do you emphasize stop-loss so much - isn't that just booking a loss?

Accepted Answer

A stop-loss isn't a failure - it's what keeps you in the market long enough to actually build capital. It caps what you can lose on any single idea, so no one trade can meaningfully damage your capital or your ability to keep participating in the next opportunity.

Question 10

What exactly do I get as a subscriber?

Accepted Answer

Depending on your plan (Investor or Trader), you receive complete, execute-ready trade recommendations - with entry, target, stop-loss, position sizing, risk level, and the rationale behind the call - sent via Telegram for timely access, with the full research and technical context also available anytime on your secure Client Dashboard.

Question 11

How many calls/recommendations will I get in a month?

Accepted Answer

Investor plan: 1 to 3 actionable ideas every market week (minimum 4 to 8 calls a month). Trader plan: 1 to 3 ideas every market day (minimum 16 calls a month). These are indicative minimums under normal market conditions, not a fixed quota - if we don't have a clear insight on a given day, we don't force a call just to hit a number.

Question 12

Will I still get the same number of calls when the market is in a downtrend?

Accepted Answer

Not necessarily - and we'd rather tell you this upfront than have you assume otherwise. The stated call frequency is indicative and applies in normal market conditions. During a prolonged downtrend or high-volatility phase, the number of valid, executable setups in the cash segment naturally reduces, and so will the number of calls we issue. We don't recommend trades just to meet a stated frequency - every call is issued only when it meets our risk-reward criteria.

Question 13

How will I actually receive the trade recommendations?

Accepted Answer

Every trade recommendation is sent via Telegram, complete and ready to execute - you don't need to piece anything together. The full research, strategy logic, and market context behind each call are also available on your Client Dashboard.

Question 14

What does an actual trade recommendation look like - what information does it include?

Accepted Answer

Every recommendation is a complete, execute-ready package including date, segment, trade type, action, target, stop loss, timing, weightage/lot size, risk level, and a brief rationale. Every recommendation also carries our SEBI Registration No. INH000020396 and a standard disclaimer that it is a short-term trading idea based on technical/market analysis and not investment advice, that trading involves substantial risk including possible loss of capital, and that full disclosures are available at raistocks.com/disclosures.

Question 15

What is a "trade alert" and how is it different from the trade recommendation itself?

Accepted Answer

A trade alert is sent via Telegram just before the actual recommendation, so you know to be ready and can act at the correct price when the full recommendation follows - it prevents you from missing timely execution.

Question 16

Do I need to keep a fixed lot size throughout my subscription?

Accepted Answer

Yes - once you choose a lot size (1, 3, 5, or more), we recommend maintaining it consistently for the full subscription period. This keeps your risk and reward aligned with what's calculated for each recommendation; changing lot size mid-way distorts that alignment.

Question 17

What if I miss a trade alert or notification?

Accepted Answer

Keep your Telegram notifications on - that's the primary channel every alert reaches you through. If you do miss one, your dashboard always shows the full, time-stamped history of every call so you're never out of the loop.

Question 18

Do you cover Futures & Options (F&O), or only cash/equity?

Accepted Answer

It depends on your plan. The Investor plan is Cash-focused, with F&O used only for portfolio hedging. The Trader plan covers Index/Stock Options & Futures, Cash, and a broader range of strategies including intraday and swing setups.

Question 19

What capital do I need to get started?

Accepted Answer

As a general guide, an ideal capital range is ₹8 lakh to ₹10 lakh, though this varies based on your chosen plan and risk appetite - we're happy to discuss what's suitable for you on a consultation call.

Question 20

What can I see on the Client Dashboard?

Accepted Answer

Everything: market sentiment and sectoral trends, technical setups (support/resistance, chart patterns), breakouts and market structure, full trade setups with strategy explanations, and our risk management framework for allocation and rebalancing. It's available 24/7 via secure login.

Question 21

Can I verify your track record before subscribing?

Accepted Answer

Our subscribers have access to the dashboard via secure login, where they can see every recommendation - past, present, and running - with time-stamped entries, targets, stop-losses, and outcomes, updated in good faith based on publicly available price data. Minor variations may exist due to execution price, slippage, or timing, and the tracker is educational rather than a promise of returns.

Question 22

What is the Trade Diary?

Accepted Answer

It's a space on your dashboard where you can log your own trades and track your live positions alongside our recommendations - so your entire trading activity, not just ours, is organized in one place for your own review.

Question 23

Can I try the service before committing to a full subscription?

Accepted Answer

Yes - we offer a risk-free 15-Day Trial at ₹999, covering 11 trading days with at least 1 call daily (up to 3 max). Full transparency and dashboard access apply from day one - proof over promises.

Question 24

What is your refund policy?

Accepted Answer

If you're not satisfied, we refund the unutilized period of your subscription, after statutory charges, as per SEBI norms - fair, simple, and in writing. Full details are in our Refund Policy on the site.

Question 25

Are there hidden charges, upsells, or add-on fees?

Accepted Answer

No hidden charges, no upsells. What you see on the plan is what you pay - no surprise add-ons mid-subscription.

Question 26

Do you offer cashback, discounts, or bonuses for enrolling quickly?

Accepted Answer

No - and this is deliberate, not an oversight. As a SEBI-registered RA, we don't use cashback, vouchers, or sign-up incentives to drive enrollment; our advertisement conduct stays strictly within SEBI's norms. We'd rather earn your subscription through a transparent trial and a track record you can verify yourself.

Question 27

Do you take commission or brokerage from any broker for referring me?

Accepted Answer

No. We operate on a no-commission, no-brokerage basis. We don't earn from your trading activity or from any broker relationship - your subscription fee is our only source of revenue from you, which is what keeps our incentives aligned with your outcomes, not your trading volume.

Question 28

What if I have a doubt or face an issue with the service?

Accepted Answer

Reach out to our support number or email - we aim to resolve queries and doubts as quickly as possible.

Question 29

What if my complaint isn't resolved to my satisfaction?

Accepted Answer

Beyond our direct support, you have access to SEBI's SCORES platform to formally raise your concern. We publish our monthly client complaints data on our site, updated on the 5th of every month, so our resolution record is visible, not just claimed.

Question 30

Do you sell or share my personal data?

Accepted Answer

No. Your data is private and is not shared or sold - full details are in our Privacy Policy.

Question 31

Are your recommendations personalized to my financial situation?

Accepted Answer

No - our trade and research recommendations are the same for all subscribers on a given plan; they are not personalized investment advice tailored to your individual financial situation. We'd encourage you to assess suitability for your own situation, or consult a financial advisor, before acting on any recommendation.

Question 32

Do I need a specific broker or demat account?

Accepted Answer

No. You can hold this portfolio in any demat account with any broker. We only recommend the stocks and weights - you place the trades yourself, wherever your account is.

Question 33

What if I can't buy the exact weight recommended?

Accepted Answer

That's fine. Weights are a guide for how to size each holding relative to the others, not a precise instruction. Round to whole shares as closely as you reasonably can - a 0.1–0.2% drift from the recommended weight makes no meaningful difference to the portfolio's overall behaviour.

Question 34

What if I join mid-way - do I still buy all 24 stocks at once?

Accepted Answer

Yes, you can build the full portfolio in one go using the latest factsheet weights, regardless of when you subscribe. You don't need to wait for the next rebalancing to get started.

Question 35

What happens if I miss a rebalancing update?

Accepted Answer

Rebalancing notes stay available on your dashboard, so you can act on them whenever you check in - there's no deadline that expires. That said, we'd recommend reviewing your dashboard at least once a quarter, in step with our own review cycle.

Question 36

Can I invest only part of the portfolio, or skip a stock I'm not comfortable with?

Accepted Answer

Yes. This is a recommendation, not a mandate - you're free to skip, resize, or substitute any holding based on your own judgment. Just note that doing so changes your actual diversification versus the model.

Question 37

Is this portfolio managed on my behalf?

Accepted Answer

No. We do not execute trades, and we never have access to your demat, trading, or bank accounts. You retain full control and full responsibility for every transaction.

Question 38

Do I get research reports for each stock, or just the stock list and weights?

Accepted Answer

Both. Every constituent has a full standalone research report - business overview, thesis, financials, valuation view, and stock-specific risks - alongside the factsheet.

Question 39

Can I get this without an Annual Subscription?

Accepted Answer

Yes, it's available standalone at ₹7,999/year. Annual Subscription plans include full access to it as part of the subscription - worth checking if you're likely to want trade calls and dashboard access as well.

Question 40

How is this different from the research reports included with the All Weather Portfolio?

Accepted Answer

Both draw on the same research process. Initially, this service publishes reports on the All Weather Portfolio's 24 constituent stocks - so Portfolio subscribers and Research Report subscribers may see overlapping coverage at first. Once that initial coverage is complete, this service moves on to fresh, standalone stock ideas outside the portfolio, published on its own bi-monthly schedule.

Question 41

Why only 6 reports a year - is that enough?

Accepted Answer

Each report is a full, in-depth study rather than a quick note, so the cadence reflects genuine research depth over volume. If you want continuous idea flow, this pairs well with the All Weather Portfolio and our Annual Subscription's ongoing dashboard content.

Question 42

Can I request coverage of a specific stock?

Accepted Answer

We're happy to hear suggestions, but stock selection for each report is based on our independent research process and is not guaranteed to follow specific requests.

Question 43

Do reports expire, or can I refer back to older ones?

Accepted Answer

Reports remain on your dashboard indefinitely for as long as your subscription is active - you can revisit any past report at any time.

Question 44

Can I get this without an Annual Subscription?

Accepted Answer

Yes, it's available standalone at ₹7,999/year. It's also included at no extra cost with any Yearly plan - Investor, Trader, or Trader Premium - but not with Quarterly or Monthly plans.
