The company allows only a few high-value investors to buy them at a discount from the market value. Consequently, a single investor buys these shares in significant quantities, increasing their equity stake. These types of shares are given out to meet liabilities requirements by the company.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>\n<h4><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Employee_Stock_Options_ESOPs\"><\/span>Employee Stock Options (ESOPs)<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h4>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">ESOPs can be claimed by only an employee of a company after a fixed period and a discounted rate.

This is the most natural way of earning profits for equity traders and investors as their efforts directly drive them. They are earned when investors realize their gain and are subject to taxation owing to their potential for making huge profits.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Capital gains are of two types:<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><b>Long-term Capital Gains: <\/b>Long-term capital gains<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> are earned by an investor when the increase in the valuation of securities has occurred over a large period or over one year. These are unrealised gains accumulated over the years. They are taxed more heavily.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><b>Short-term Capital Gains:<\/b> <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">These are gains earned by an investor when the increase in securities valuation and the realisation of that profit has occurred within one year. <\/span>Short-term capital gains<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> are taxed less than long-term ones.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">On the other hand, dividends are a regular source of income for shareholders in a company. These are shed out of the company&#8217;s net profits from each financial year and are disbursed when financial reports are released. Every common shareholder is automatically entitled to dividends.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Advantages_of_Equity_Shares\"><\/span>Advantages of Equity Shares<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>The benefits of equity <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">shares over mutual funds or debentures are numerous.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Equity shares hold the potential to reap greater returns.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Equity shares give the investor partial ownership over the company.

An investor can withdraw their investment almost instantly if they wish to do so.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Who_Should_Consider_Investing_in_Equities\"><\/span>Who Should Consider Investing in Equities?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Equity investment requires a lot of background research work. Fundamental analysis of the equity stock helps investors make decisions for long-term investing. A critical parameter is the debt-to-equity ratio, which is the ratio of the total debt owed by the company to its total shareholder\u2019s equity. D\/E ratio allows the investors to understand the leverage taken by the company. A higher ratio is a negative signal for the equity stock.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Equity investments reap significant returns in the long run, but the journey is never smooth. Needless to say, the sole parameter to consider before investing in equity is the risk appetite, which is high in people of relatively younger age. They do not get overwhelmed by short-term sharp moves in the market, and their stable source of income sails them through when the investment takes a hit. At the same time, the older market players prefer not to go through the rough ride and enjoy the smooth, little returns of low-risk investment alternatives. High returns and the turmoil of risk attached to equity trading may not excite them.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h4><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Interested_in_how_we_think_about_the_markets\"><\/span>Interested in how we think about the markets?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h4>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Read more: <a href=\"https:\/\/kuvera.in\/blog\/category\/zen-and-the-art-of-investing\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><strong>Zen And The Art Of Investing<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Check out all our &#8220;Investor Education Originals&#8221; videos on Youtube and get smart about investing.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"How to choose between Stocks &amp; Mutual funds | Explained\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/N1li1d9X0jw?list=PLDSzQdT9nLmBFD2p94O5p2pZ4vEUR-Thz\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Start investing through a platform that brings goal planning and investing to your fingertips.
