Annual Net Profit Margin
Definition of Annual Net Profit Margin
A Net Profit Margin is the ratio of a company’s net profits to revenues. The formula to calculate Net Profit Margin is:
Net Profit Margin = Net Profit* / Revenue * 100
*Net profit = Revenue - Cost of goods - Operating Cost - Other Expenses - Interest - Taxes
Net Profit Margin is expressed as a percentage, which means that you can compare the financial health of multiple companies.
A company can use its Net Profit Margin to understand whether its strategies and business models are effective.

Primary Market
The primary market is where the securities are created and first issued to investors. This is where companies raise funds by selling stocks and bonds. Key activities in the primary market are Initial Public Offerings (IPOs), Further Public Offerings (FPOs), and rights issues. The proceeds from these sales go directly to the issuing company or government entity.
Differential Voting Rights
Differential Voting Rights or DVRs are special types of shares that carry more or less voting rights, depending on the issuing company. For example, a DVR share that carries less than usual voting rights may generate relatively high dividends.
A publicly traded company that wants to issue DVR shares must go through a postal ballot. There are other caveats as well. But broadly speaking, a company must have a healthy finanical track record if they want to issue DVR shares.

Market Order
A market order is an order placed to execute a buy or sell transaction instantly using the prevailing market prices. It prioritizes speed over price certainty, meaning the trade is executed quickly, but the final price may differ slightly from the last traded price.
Multi-Bagger
A multi-bagger refers to a stock that delivers returns multiple times higher than its original investment value. For example, a stock that grows five times from its purchase price is called a five-bagger. Investors often associate multi-baggers with strong business growth, long-term holding, and effective capital allocation.
Long-Term Capital Gain Tax
Long-term capital gain tax is the tax imposed on profits from selling shares or financial securities held for a period of at least three years. The tax rate applied is typically lower than the short-term capital gains tax, which are profits from the sale of shares held for a shorter duration.
High Volatility Stocks
High volatility stocks are shares that fluctuate based on market conditions, typically more than others. The volatility could be a result of inherent fundamentals or other factors like the industry or domain. Identifying high volatility stocks is possible through indicators like Average True Range and Bollinger Bands.
