A.No where it is defined that for an individual share trading is a business. No. 2 we all are free to invest in shares of the companies and create wealth for ourselves. That means even Advocate can do that. Not only that an advocate can also invest in partnership or any company's shares as promoter or founder but the important point is that the Practicing advocate cannot take any executive or managerial role and definitely no salary or remuneration at all. So you can be part of a business through shareholding (sleeping partner) but cannot be part of the operations or running of the business.

A.Some are giving wrong guidance. I have a totally different opinion, he can do it for himself. It is investment, not business.

A citation comes in when some one goes to Court on this on Bar Council objecting to such activity, What I say is that it is only investing. What you cannot do is earning commission by trading for others.
