What should I do if I do not know the original buy price of my transferred shares?
If you do not know the original buy price of your transferred holdings, refer to the transaction records from your previous broker before updating the buy average in FYERS.
Details to verify
Before updating the buy average, confirm the following purchase details:
- Buy date
- Quantity
- Buy price
Where to get the original purchase details
You can refer to:
- Trade or transaction reports from your previous broker
- Contract notes or holding statements available with your previous broker
- Applicable CAS (Consolidated Account Statement)
Use the original acquisition details from these records when updating the transferred holding in FYERS.
If the displayed buy average is inaccurate
Do not confirm the estimated value unless it matches your actual purchase details.
If the displayed value does not match your records, select Update and enter the correct buy date, quantity, and buy price.
Verify the purchase details carefully before confirming the buy average.
