How Students and Housewives Can Open Pakistan Stock Exchange Account Online 2025?

The Pakistan Stock Exchange (PSX) has launched the “Sahulat Account” to make stock market investments simpler and more accessible for retail investors. Designed especially for students, housewives, and beginners, this account provides a convenient entry point for those looking to start investing.

With a Sahulat Account, investors can trade up to Rs1 million and later upgrade to a regular trading account if needed. Opening the account is straightforward—just fill out a simplified form and submit a valid CNIC copy.

Steps to Open a PSX Sahulat Account:

• Select a Brokerage House: Choose your preferred brokerage firm and open a Brokerage Account in your name. A Client Identification Number (CIN) or account number will be assigned.

• Verify Terms & Conditions: Ensure that the conditions in the Account Opening Form match the standard version available on the PSX website.

• Open a CDC Sub-Account: This is where purchased shares are placed. Investors are also encouraged to open a CDC Investor Account for added safety and individual custody of shares.

• Get a Unique Identity Number (UIN): All brokerage accounts and transactions will be recorded against this number.

The PSX highlights that the Sahulat Account is an easy way for new investors to begin their stock market journey while ensuring transparency and security.
