What is meant by circuit breaker? Just observe the following sentence where this phrase is used?

"If you are an investor in the stock market, the happenings of the last few days must have caused a lot of concern. Remember the black Tuesday of January 22 when the market plummeted by more than 11 per cent during the first few minutes of trade. Nervous sellers pushed the panic trigger, sending the markets into a free fall, until it hit the CIRCUIT BREAKER, which automatically caused all trading to come to a halt, both, at the BSE and NSE."

What do we mean by Asset Reconstruction Company(ARC)?. Who regulates those companies in India? What is the nature of business of these companies?

HI experts,
I assume that the companies going for IPO's are issuing equity shares. Is there any company issuing preference shares? Any company's preference share is now listed in the exchange?

Please distinguish b/w speculative and non- speculative transaction or give link where the diff is stated.
Also, what is the nature of the transactions by the traders who buy and sell on a daily basis?

The price band for the sale price and repurchase price as per SEBI Regulations 1996 is as follows where,
a) sale price should not be higher than 107% of NAV,
b)repurchase price should not be lower than 93% of NAV, and
c)difference between sale price and repurchase price calculated on sale price should not exceed 7%.

Is there any change in this rule???

Dear Sir,
Our Institute is an Educational Institute, running engineering degree courses. Accounts are audited and submitted to Charity Commissioner. We have two institutes in one campus and accounts are maintained separately and audited separately. Second institute is providing technical trades to students. Both are registered under Public Trust. Due to lot of developments taking place and by introducing new courses, we are in need of funds.
In fixed deposits the rate of interest is 10%. I would like to know whether we can invest in mutual funds to get more returns. If yes, which mutual fund as per Charity Commissioner. Also please tell us which are the mutual funds approved by charity commissioner. If we invest, for what minimum and maximum period we have to invest.
Thanks
