What are shares?
I
f you are fresh to the universe of investing in stock market, you may not have knowledge of shares. Therefore, it is very important to have the understanding of shares at first place. A share may be defined as:
"A proportionate stake in the equity of a corporation is represented by shares. We can also term them as equity securities."
Who issues shares?
Shares are issued by corporations listed on stock exchange. For a company to issue shares, they must have a registration at stock exchange. Companies which are registered on stock exchanges are called Listed companies

In contrast to borrowing funds from outsiders, companies have an option to rise outside capital by selling or issuing shares, in order to finance their wide operations. One of the way by which company raises capital in the form of equity is by selling (issuing) shares in the market. This permits investor to buy share from the company at a certain price. By buying at least single share of a company, an investor is entitled to become a shareholder of the same company and this gives him the right to share a portion of company’s income as profit, known as dividend.
