when you buy a share it means that you have bought the ownership of that company (not in whole/not purchased it). now this ownership depends upon the number of shares purchased. also being a owner you are entitled to profits(bonus) and losses. so if the company suffers a loss you have to bear it depending upon the number of shares and if it makes a profit it will be shared with you as a bonus. there are different sectors wherein you can invest and after sturying some market trends choose for the best option. hope this helps you.

Owning shares (sometimes called stock) means you have a part-ownership of a company. Nevertheless, the amount of shareholdings indicate a percentage ownership in the company e.g. if you have 1000 shares of a company that has a share issue of 100,000 shares, you have a 1% shareholding in the company.

Simply put - You need capital to run a business.capital is provided by the promotors in the form of units of money called shares.If the promotors can not bring in enough capital from their own sources they resort to public issue and offer these units to public in the form of shares and increase the company's share capital.
