WHAT IS THE MINIMUM AMOUNT OF INITIAL INVESTMENT

Some brokers may require a minimum initial investment to open 
an account depending on their requirement or may charge or waive 
other fees depending on the amount you initially invest.If you are 
just getting started with a small investment, look for an investment 
firm that would not penalize you based on the size of your investment.
The minimum amount of money needed to invest in the stock market depends
 on the minimum number of shares to be traded for the stock. The minimum 
shares will be determined by the prevailing market price of a particular 
stock, as each stock, the minimum number of shares to be traded is fixed, 
called the market-lot, which depends on the price range of the stock.The market
 lot is calculated biannually by NCCPL, keeping the lot size to 500-shares for 
scrip which are priced less than Rs. 50 and lot size of 100-shares for scrip priced above Rs. 50
