12 August 2025 Partnership firm is generally preferred for flexibility and clear separation if family members are active traders/investors.

Consult with your employer’s HR/legal to clarify the exact scope of the restriction and avoid policy violation.

Ensure full compliance with SEBI/KYC norms for DMAT/trading accounts.
