1. The market in which the company can raise funds is the primary market

Explanation

The primary market is the market where companies can raise funds by issuing new securities, such as stocks or bonds, directly to investors. This market allows companies to raise capital for business expansion, research and development, or other financial needs. In contrast, the secondary market is where these securities are traded among investors. Therefore, the statement that the primary market is the market in which the company can raise funds is true.

Explanation

In the primary market, the transaction of securities is typically one directional. This means that the securities are issued and sold by the issuer to the investors.

8.  DRHP states all important details of the company like stop loss, targets, investment required, etc.

The given statement is incorrect. DRHP (Draft Red Herring Prospectus) is a document filed by a company with the regulatory authority when it plans to go public through an initial public offering (IPO). It provides information about the company's business, financials, risks, and objectives, but it does not include details like stop loss, targets, or investment required. Therefore, the correct answer is false.

9. Which of the following is not a circuit limit for a stock?

Explanation

A circuit limit is a predetermined percentage change in the price of a stock that triggers a temporary halt in trading. This measure is put in place to prevent extreme volatility and protect investors. In this case, the correct answer is 15% because it is not a circuit limit for a stock. The other options, 5%, 10%, and 20%, are all commonly used circuit limits that determine when trading should be temporarily halted.

It includes activities such as trading in Treasury bills, commercial papers, and certificates of deposit.
