Do I need to open a new brokerage account?

No. You continue using your existing brokerage account.

Does TGIMC trade on my behalf?

No. TGIMC does not execute trades, manage portfolios, or provide investment advice.

Does TGIMC hold my money?

No. TGIMC does not hold participant funds. Your capital remains with your broker.

What is the entry fee?

Both Equity and F&O tracks are Rs. 5,000. Equity requires Rs. 5 lakh starting capital; F&O requires Rs. 10 lakh. Your capital stays with your broker.

How are rankings calculated?

From reviewed proof. Returns, risk, and consistency all count. The published methodology is the rulebook, and it should be out before rankings go live.

TGIMC does not pay cash prizes. If you finish in the top 10, we line up public recognition. Newspaper space, a credential, a certificate, and financial media. Every paid pass can use partner offers on brokerage, analytics, data, and software. Partner terms apply.

Can I enter the Championship after it has started?

Yes, if the entry window is still open. Late starters are ranked from their verified account value on the day participation begins. Gains from before that date do not count. TGIMC can ask for statements, screenshots, or broker confirmation to lock that starting value.

Is TGIMC open to participants outside India?

Yes. You need an eligible market, a supported broker, and you have to meet the rules.

What are the different TGIMC tracks?

Two tracks, one entry fee of Rs. 5,000. Equity is cash-market with Rs. 5 lakh starting capital. F&O is futures and options with Rs. 10 lakh starting capital. Each track has its own instruments and ranking table. Read the rules for the track you pick before you pay.

Can I add or withdraw money from my competition account?

Yes, if you report the movement and we can verify it. Deposits and withdrawals are not trading P&L. TGIMC takes them out of the return calculation. You may need to send the matching broker statements.

What happens if I perform well?

You get a public record that was independently reviewed. Finish in the top 10 and we go after the newspaper page, credential, and media. Everyone else still has the ranking and the partner offers. TGIMC does not place you with firms, raise capital for you, or guarantee a career outcome. The ranking is a record you can point to.

TGIMC-verified track record

You send statements. TGIMC reviews them against the published methodology. That reviewed record is what gets ranked.
