• I do not have KYC. Can I invest in Stocks & MFs?
  For stocks, an online demat account can be opened in 5 to 10 minutes. The process is very smooth and is done by lakhs of new investors every week. From the Jama Wealth app, you can choose Demat account from the Account section. For mutual funds, an eKYC can be obtained using your Aadhar number. This is done only once during your first investment. You will get an OTP on your Aadhar linked phone number which is used to complete the eKYC online.
• Why do I have to upload my signature again?
  In case of mutual funds, a signature is required to get the BSE account opening form processed. The BSE exchange or the AMC (Asset Management Company ie, Mutual Fund House) may review the signature as a secondary check and may ask it be uploaded again. In case of stocks, you can directly open a demat account or link your existing demat account; Jama does not process any application. We only require your KYC information and eSign an agreement as per SEBI regulations.
• How do I select which stock or fund to invest in?
  The research team at Jama Wealth helps identify which stocks to buy and update the list on a quarterly basis. You can just choose to buy the portfolio of stocks and buy them in your demat account. We also advise which ones to exit and to what extent. In case of mutual funds, you may choose to invest in any fund you like from the "Invest Now (MF)" link. If you choose any of the advisory picks by Jama, then you will be requested to take a risk profile assessment. SEBI has made risk profile mandatory.
• What is the difference between Equity Funds & ELSS Funds?
  Equity funds are ideal for long term investing (in a 5 to 7 year timeframe) for those investors whoa re starting small. They invest in companies that aim to grow with the economy. Index funds are a subset of Equity funds and also help in beating inflation. "ELSS" funds also invest in such equities; they provide an additional benefit of Income Tax Saving (under Section 80c or ELSS scheme). ELSS funds have a three year lockin. You may consider ELSS funds if your Section 80c limit is not met by PPF, Children Education and other such eligible investments.
