Nothing here is investment advice or a recommendation to buy or sell any security. Figures are dated — verify current prices, charges, and rules before acting. Trading, especially leveraged trading, can lose more than the amount invested. Consult a SEBI-registered adviser or a chartered accountant for decisions about your own money.

How to use this library
Start with the synthesis. The five laws and the base rates change how every other page reads. Then read in order: foundations before trading, trading before ideas. The ideas page is last for a reason — a stock idea without the base rates, the cost math, and the risk math is a lottery ticket, not a thesis.
How evidence is labelled. FACT verified against an official page or primary document. UNVERIFIED found only in secondary sources — a lead, not a fact. Where sources disagree, both figures are shown. Where a famous statistic is quoted, the exact endpoint it measures is stated.
