** At the start of the contest, ` 15 lakh of virtual money will be allocated to each participant.
** The participant with the highest Net Worth (cash in hand + value of stocks held) at the end of 7 trading days will be the winner. Similarly, the next two participants will be the first runner-up and second runner-up respectively

Please Note:
A ‘trade’ means an executed order. For example, if a participant buys 100 shares of ABC Ltd., it will be considered as 1 trade. If the same participant sells 100 shares of ABC Ltd., it will be considered as another trade. This effectively means that by buying and selling 100 shares of ABC Ltd., the participant has completed two trades.

Daily Turnover Restrictions:
Participants MUST restrict their trading turnover to less than or equal to ` 3 crore. Turnover means the sum total of all the transactions executed on a particular trading day. This includes shares bought and sold on the same day, or shares sold on the current day which were purchased on some other trading day.

One error in terms of higher turnover from participants will be allowed. However, the maximum excess turnover should NOT be more than ` 50 lakh. This means that if a participant does a turnover of up to Rs. 3.5 crore on any day of the contest.
