What to Include When Lodging a Grievance

To enable prompt resolution within our 7-day commitment, please provide:

  • Registered full name, registered email address, and mobile number.
  • Active subscription plan details and transaction ID.
  • A clear description of the deficiency (e.g., non-receipt of a research report, portal access malfunction, billing inquiry, refund calculation).
  • Copies of relevant receipts, error screenshots, or correspondence.
  • The specific remedy or corrective outcome requested.

What Is Not Classified as a Service Grievance

In accordance with SEBI guidelines, the following do not constitute a deficiency of service or valid regulatory grievance:

  • Capital losses or portfolio drawdowns incurred on investments made based on research recommendations.
  • Adverse market price movements or macroeconomic volatility affecting recommended securities.
  • Disagreements with the analyst's fundamental thesis, qualitative valuation models, or long-term target horizon.

Research recommendations carry market risk and provide no assurance or guarantee of returns. Analytical feedback is always welcomed at admin@8848invest.com, but market movements do not constitute a deficiency in research services.

Monthly Public Reporting of Complaints

In accordance with SEBI Circular dated 2 June 2025, 8848 Research publishes monthly complaints data updated by the 7th of every month. You can review the status, disposal trend, and resolution speed on our Investor Complaints Data page.
