Getting started with stock investing might feel scary at first too many numbers, too many choices. But the truth is, you don’t need to be an expert to grow your money through stocks. With the right steps and a little help, even beginners can start smart.
This guide is made especially for new investors who want to understand how stock investment works, without getting lost in complex terms. And if you’re someone who wants expert support from Day 1, Teji Mandi is here to make your investing journey simple, safe, and smart.
Let’s walk through it together — step by step.
Step 1: Understand What Stocks Are
A stock is a small part of a company. When you buy it, you become a part-owner of that company. If the company earns well, your stock value grows. If the company struggles, your stock might fall in value.
It’s like buying a slice of a cake — the bigger the cake grows, the better your slice becomes.
At Teji Mandi, we help you pick companies that are fundamentally strong and have long-term potential. You don’t have to study hundreds of companies — we do the hard work and guide you on what to buy, hold, or sell.
Step 2: Open a Demat & Trading Account
To buy or sell stocks, you need two things:
- A Demat account – to store your stocks
- A Trading account – to buy and sell them
To start investing, you’ll need a Demat and Trading account. This is where your stocks are stored and where your buying/selling happens.
We recommend opening your account with Motilal Oswal, our trusted partner. It’s quick, 100% digital, and perfectly aligned with your Teji Mandi journey. Once your account is active, you’ll be ready to invest directly through Teji Mandi’s recommendations.
Step 3: Set Your Financial Goals
Before you start investing, ask yourself:
- What am I saving for?
- How long can I stay invested?
- Am I okay with small ups and downs?
Your answers will shape your investment style. At Teji Mandi, we offer different portfolios — like Flagship, Multiplier, and Edge — based on your goals, timeline, and comfort level. So whether you’re saving for 5 years or looking for faster growth, we’ve got you covered.
Step 4: Choose a Ready-Made Portfolio (or DIY)
As a beginner, it’s easy to feel lost among thousands of stocks. Should you buy a tech company or a bank? Is ₹100 stock better than ₹500 one?
That’s where Teji Mandi helps. Our expert team handpicks stocks and groups them into readymade portfolios. You simply subscribe, connect your account, and invest in the whole basket with just a few clicks.
No need to track news daily. We update you when changes are needed.
Step 5: Start with What You Can Afford
You don’t need a big amount to begin investing. With Teji Mandi, you can start with as low as ₹2,000–₹5,000 and still follow a full portfolio. You don’t have to buy 10 different stocks separately — we tell you exactly how much to invest and where.
And remember: It’s not about timing the market. It’s about time in the market.
Start small. Stay regular. Let compounding do the magic.
Step 6: Understand the Risks — And Manage Them
All investments come with ups and downs. Stock prices may go up or down every day. But when you invest in strong companies and hold for the long term, you reduce the chance of loss.
Teji Mandi helps reduce your risk by:
- Choosing quality stocks only
- Diversifying across industries
- Avoiding speculation and hype
You also get regular insights on market trends, so you stay updated without stress.
Step 7: Track Your Portfolio Easily
Tracking your investments is important, but you don’t need to spend hours doing it.
With the Teji Mandi app, you get:
- Live updates on how your stocks are doing
- Alerts for buy/sell actions
- Insights from SEBI-registered professionals.
It’s like having a financial coach in your pocket. You stay informed, not overwhelmed.
Step 8: Rebalance When Needed
Over time, some stocks in your portfolio may perform better or worse than others. That’s when portfolio rebalancing helps. It means adjusting your holdings to keep your investments balanced and healthy.
With Teji Mandi, we do this for you. Every month, we review all stocks in your portfolio and suggest what to add, hold, or exit — based on solid research.
You’ll never have to guess what to do next.
Step 9: Stay Consistent, Not Perfect
Many beginners think they need to pick the “perfect stock” or find the “right time” to invest. Truth is — no one can time the market perfectly.
What works better? Investing small amounts regularly. Teji Mandi helps you build a habit. Just follow the model, invest monthly, and stay consistent.
Let the power of long-term investing do the work for you.
Step 10: Learn As You Go (With Us by Your Side)
Stock investing is a journey. You don’t have to know everything on Day 1. As you invest more, you’ll learn more. Teji Mandi makes this process smoother by:
- Explaining key decisions in simple terms
- Sending market stories in plain English
- Helping you avoid panic or greed
With our expert team behind you, you can grow your confidence — along with your capital.
You don’t have to be an expert to start investing. You just need the right guidance. With Teji Mandi, you don’t need to pick stocks, read reports, or worry about market news.
We do the heavy lifting. You focus on your goals.
