Insider trading is defined as a process whereby individuals who, due to their employment, have access to information that is otherwise not generally known but may be essential for making investment decisions, trade the securities of a company.
It is known as insider trading, and the Securities and Exchange Board of India strongly discourages it in order to encourage fair trading in the market for the benefit of the average investor. Insiders include senior employees or executives who have access to strategic information about the company.
Insider trading is unfair conduct in which the lack of critical insider non-public information places the other stockholders at a significant disadvantage. But in other circumstances, if the knowledge has been made public and is available to all interested investors, that will not constitute illegal insider trading.

An index fund is a type of mutual fund whose holdings match or track a particular market index. In this funds are invested in a broader market index – like the Sensex or the Nifty. For example if you have little knowledge about the investment or stock market and you want to invest in this index fund, then your funds will be invested in all the top companies of Nifty50 according to the holding of the particular company i.e. if a company has 49% capturing and other is 12% & more on, so your share of money will be divided accordingly.
An exchange-traded fund (ETF) is a type of investment fund and exchange-traded product, i.e. they are traded on stock exchanges. ETFs are similar in many ways to mutual funds, except that ETFs are bought and sold throughout the day on stock exchanges while mutual funds are bought and sold based on their price at day’s end.
So we can say ETF lies in between mutual fund and trading.
There are different rules, taxes & return policies you should read. If you want to invest & are confused then you should know in ETF investment you should have enough knowledge about market & the companies. & while you want to invest & learn & you are a beginner then index fund would be a safe option. Even Warren Buffett has also suggested to invest in this if someone wants to save money & have little knowledge of market.
