41

2.13. Study of Investment Investment and Stock Stock Market Market 2.13.1. Securities and Exchange Board of India SEBI is the Regulator for the Securities Market in India. Originally set up by the Government of India in 1988, it acquired statutory form in 1992 with SEBI Act 1992 being passed by the Indian Parliament. Chaired by C B Bhave, SEBI is headquartered in the popular business district of Bandra-Kurla complex in Mumbai, and has Northern, Eastern, Southern and Western regional offices in New Delhi, Kolkata, Chennai and Ahmedabad SEBI has to be responsive to the needs of three groups, which constitute the market: 

the issuers of securities



the investors



The market intermediaries.

SEBI has three functions rolled into one body quasi-legislative, quasi-judicial and quasi-executive. It drafts regulations in its legislative capacity, it conducts investigation and enforcement action in its executive function and it passes rulings and orders in its judicial capacity. Though this makes it very powerful, there is an appeals process to create accountability. There is a Securities Appellate Tribunal which is a three member tribunal and is presently headed by a former Chief Justice of a High court - Mr. Justice NK Sodhi. A second appeal lies directly to the Supreme Court. SEBI has enjoyed success as a regulator by pushing systemic reforms aggressively and successively (e.g. the quick movement towards making the markets electronic and paperless rolling settlement on T+2 basis). SEBI has been active in setting up the regulations as required under law. With the objective of improving market efficiency, enhancing transparency, checking unfair trade practices and bringing the Indian market up to international standards, a package of reforms consisting of measures to liberalize, regulate and develop the securities market was introduced during the 1990s. This has changed corporate securities market beyond recognition in this decade. 42

2.13.2. National Stock Exchange The National Stock Exchange commenced its operations in 1947 as a first step in reforming the securities market the exchange. Before the NSE was set up trading on the stock exchange in India used to take place through open outcry without use of information technology for immediate matching or recording of trades. This was time consuming and inefficient. The practice of physical trading imposed limits on trading volumes as well as, the speed with which new information was incorporated in to prices. To obviate this, the NSE introduced screen-based trading system where a member can punch into the computer the quantities of shares and the prices at which he wants to transact. The transaction is executed as soon as the quote punched by a trading member finds a matching sale or buys quote from f rom counterparty.

2.13.3. Bombay Stock Exchange: BSC Sensex or Bombay Stock Exchange Sensitive index is a value-weighted index composed of 30 stocks started in 01 of Jan, 1986. it consist of the 30 largest and most actively traded stock , representative of various sectors, on the Bombay stock exchange .these companies account for around one-fifth of market capitalization of the BSE. The base value of the sensex is 100 on April 1, 1979, and the base year of BSE-SENSEX is 1978-79. At irregular intervals, the Bombay stock exchange (BSE) authorities review and modify its composition composition to make sure it reflect current market conditions. The The index is calculated based on free float capitalization method; a variation of the market cap method. Instead of using a company‟s outstanding share it uses its float,

or share that are readily available for trading. The free float method, therefore, dose not includes restricted stocks, such as those held by company insiders.

2.13.4. Equities: What is Equity: - Funds brought in to a business by shareholders is called equity. It

is a measure of a stake of a person or group of persons starting a business. 43

What does investing in equity mean: - When you buy a company‟s equity, you are

in effect financing it, and being compensated with a stake in the business. You become part-owner of the company, entitled to dividends and other benefits that the company may announce, but without any guarantee of a return on your investments. Fundamental analysis: - The analysis of factual information like financial figures,

balance sheet, and other information publicly available is known as fundamental analysis. This information is used to derive a fair price of the share of the share of the company. The faithful fundamentalists believe that the market incorporates all facts relating to the financial performance of the company. Technical Analysis: - Technical analysis is the study of historic price movements of

securities and trading volumes. Technical analysis believes that prices of the securities are determined largely by forces of demand and supply. Share prices move in patterns which are easily identifiable. Crucial insights in to these patterns can be obtained by keeping track of price charts, leading to predictions that a stock price may move up to down. The belief is that by knowing the past, future prices can predict. Settlement cycle: - The accounting period for the securities traded on the

Exchange. On the NSE, the cycle beings on Wednesday and ends on the following Tuesday, and on the BSE the cycle commences on Monday and ends on Friday. At the end of this period, the obligations of each broker are calculated and the brokers settle their respective obligations of each broker are calculated and the brokers settle their respective obligations as per the rules, bye-laws and regulations of the clearing corporation. If a transaction is entered on the first day of the settlement, the same will be settled in the eighth working day excluding the day of transaction. However, if the same is done on the last day of the settlement, it will be settled on the fourth working day excluding the day of transaction.

44

Rolling settlement: - The rolling settlement ensures that each day‟s trade is settled

by keeping a fixed gap of a specified number of working days between a trade and its settlement, at present, this gap is five working days after the trading day. The waiting period is uniform for all trades. Deliver the shares and pay the money to broker: - As a seller, in order to ensures

smooth settlement you should deliver the shares to your broker immediately after getting the contract note for sale but in any case before the pay-in day. Similarly, as a buyer, one should pay immediately on the receipt of the contract note for purchase but in any case before the pay-in day. Short selling: - short selling is a legitimate trading strategy, it is a sale of a security

that the seller does not own, or any sale that is completed by the delivery of a security borrowed by the seller take the risk that they will be able to buy the stock at a more favourable price than the price at which they “sold short”

Auction: - An auction is conducted for those securities that members fail to

deliver/short deliver during pay-in. three factors primarily give rise to an auction, short deliveries, un-rectified bad delivering up-rectified company objection. The buy/sell auction for a capital market security is managed through the auction market. As opposed to the normal market where trade matching is an on-going process, the trade matching process for auction starts after aft er the auction period is over. If the shares are not bought at the auction, if the shares are not offered for sale, the exchange squares up the transaction as per SEBI guidelines, the transaction is squared up at the highest price from the relevant trading period till the auction day or at 20 percent above the last available closing price whichever is higher. The pay in and pay out of funds for auction square up is held along with the pay-out for the relevant auction. Hawala Rate: - Hawala rate is a making-up price at which buyers and sellers settle

their speculative transaction at the end of the settlement. It is the basis for buy and sells for the investor opting for carry forward during the next settlement. This price is fixed by taking the weighted average of trades in the last half-an-hour of trading on the settlement day for securities in the carry forward list, also knows as the “A” group

or specified group. 45

This price is significant because for a speculative buyer or a seller, the Hawala rate is the standard rate for settling his trade and for carrying forward business to the next settlement. For example, an investor buys the stock of x company at Rs.100 on Monday. By Friday (BSE settlement day), if Rs. 90 is the weighted average price in the last half-an-hour, the buyer would have to carry forward his trade at this price of Rs. 90. He then settles at Rs. 90 and enters in to a contract at Rs. 90 plus BLESS charges for the next settlement. Normally, Stock Exchange does not interfere with the Hawala rates. However, there are instances, when rates have been changed to ensure safety of the markets. This is so because in case the market witnesses a sharp fall during a settlement, the chances of a broker default are extremely high. This is when the exchange administration steps in and raises the Hawala rate to avert any possible default. Book-closure and record date: - When shares of a joint stock company invariably

change hands during market trades, identifying the owner of some shares becomes difficult. So it is difficult to pass on certain benefits (like share bonus issue, splits and dividend payments) to shareholders. So, when a joint stock company declares dividends or bonus issues, there has to be a cut-off date for such benefits to be transferred to the shareholders. This date is termed as "Book Closure" date or "Record Date". It is the date after which the company will not handle any transfer of shares requests until the benefits are transferred. Only shareholders marked in the company's register at the Book Closure Date or the Record Date would be entitled to receive these benefits. If a company announces book closure as 1 January, shareholders who as on that day own the stock will be entitled to the dividend/bonus/split benefit. e.g. If Mr. Y buys this stock from Mr. X on 2 January, the benefit of bonus issue or splits or dividend will still be transferred to Mr. X by the company. A company generally announces such a date along with the announcement of the bonus issue or splits or dividend announcement, as the case may be.

46

In an efficient market as per the efficient-market hypothesis (EMH) the effect of the price change due to bonus issue or splits or dividend as on the Book Closure date gets adjusted in the price of the stock in the market effective with the opening of the trade floor on the book closure date

2.15. Currency Market The foreign exchange market (currency, Forex, or FX) is where currency trading takes place. It is where banks and other official institutions facilitate the buying and selling of foreign currencies. FX transactions typically involve one party purchasing a quantity of one currency in exchange for paying a quantity of another.

49

The foreign exchange market that we see today started evolving during the 1970s when world over countries gradually switched to floating exchange rate from their erstwhile exchange rate regime, which remained fixed as per the Bretton Woods system until 1971. Presently, the FX market is one of the largest and most liquid financial markets in the world, and includes trading between large banks, central banks, currency speculators, corporations, governments, and other financial institutions. The average daily volume in the global foreign exchange and related markets is continuously growing. Traditional daily turnover was reported to be over US$3.2 US$3.2 trillion in April 2007 by the Bank for International Settlements.Since Settlements. Since then, the market has continued to grow.  According to Euro money‟s annual FX Poll, volumes grew a further 41% between 2007

and 2008. The purpose of FX market is to facilitate trade and investment. The need for a foreign exchange market arises because of the presence of multifarious international currencies such as US Dollars, Euros, Japanese yen, Pounds Sterling, etc., and the need for trading in such currencies.

2.16. Derivatives The emergence of the market for derivative products, most notably forwards, futures and options, can be traced back to the willingness of risk adverse economic agent to guard themselves against uncertainties arising of fluctuations in assets prices. By there very nature, the financial markets are marked by a very high degree of volatility. Through the use of derivative product, it is possible to partially or fully transfer price risks by locking in assets price .as instruments of risk management; these generally do not influence the fluctuation in the underlying asset prices. However, by locking in asset prices, derivative products minimize the impact of fluctuation in asset prices on the profitability and cash flow situation of risk adverse investors.

50

Derivative Products:

Derivative contracts have several variants. The most common variants are forwards, futures, options, and swaps. Take a brief look at various derivative contracts that have come to be used. 

Forward: A forward contact is a customized contract between two entities, where settlement takes place on a specific date in the future at today‟s pre-agreed price.



Future: A future contract is an agreement between two parties to buy or sell an

asset at a certain time in the future at a certain price. Future contracts are special type of forward contracting the sense that the former are standardized exchange traded contracts. 

Option: Option is two types  – calls and puts. Calls given the buyer the right but

not the obligation to buy a given quantity of the underlying asset, at a given price on or before a given future date .puts give the buyer the right, but not the obligation to sell a given quantity of the underlying asset at a given price on or before a given date. 

Warrants: Option generally have lives of up to one year. Majority of the option

traded on options exchanges having a maximum maturity of nine months. Longerdated options are called warrants and are generally traded over the counter. 

Leaps: The acronym leaps means long-term equity anticipation securities .these

are options having a maturity of up to t o three years. 

Baskets: Baskets option is option on portfolio of underlying assets. The

underlying asset is usually a moving average of a basket of asset .equity index options are a form of basket option. 

Swaps: Swaps are private agreement between two parties to exchange cash

flows in the future according to pre arranged formula. They can be regarded as portfolios of forward contracts. The two commodity use swaps are: 

Swaptions: Swaptions are option to buy or sell a swap that will become operative

at the expiry of the option .thus a swaption is an option on a forward swap. Rather than have calls and puts, the swaption market has receiver swaptions and payer swaption. A receiver swaption is an option to receive fixed and pay floating. a payer swaption is an option to pay fixed and receive floating.

51

2.17. The Depository system The principal function of a depository is to dematerialize securities and enable their transaction in book-entry form. The securities are transferred by debiting the transferor‟s depository account and crediting the transferee‟s depository account.

2.17.1. Functions of Depository Dematerialization: one of the primary functions of depository is to eliminate or

minimize the movement of physical securities in the market. This is achieved through dematerialization of securities. Dematerialization is the process of converting securities held in physical form f orm into holdings in book entry form. Account transfer: the depository gives effects to all transfers resulting from the

settlement of trades and other transactions between various beneficial owners by recording entries in the accounts of such beneficial owners. Transfer and Registration: A transfer is the legal change of ownership of a security

in the records of the issuer. For affecting a transfer, certain legal steps have to be taken like endorsement, execution of a transfer instrument and payment of stamp duty. Core Services of Demat Account

3-IN-1 ACCOUNT Accounting Opening: Any investor who wishes to avail depository services must

first open an account with a depository participant of NSDL. The process of opening a demat account is very similar to a bank account. The investor can open an account with any depository participant of NSDL. An investor may open an account with several DPs or he may open several accounts with a single DP is free to fix its own fee structure. Investors have the freedom to choose a DP based on criteria like convenience, comfort, service levels, safety, reputation and charges.

A power of Attorney executed to the promulgation promulgation of the Depositories Act is valid and enforceable. ii. It is the responsibility of the Depository Participant to verify whether the Power of Attorney is adequate and sufficiently authorizing the holder of the Power of Attorney the done to operate the account of the beneficial owner. iii.

In case there is any balance in the account sought to be closed, the following steps are necessary. a. Dematerialization of all securities to the credit of the account at the time of making the application for closure b. Transferring the balance to the credit of another account opened by the same account holders either with the same participant or with a different participant.

Further the SOT should bear the words “Account Closed” and should be prominent. For this purpose, DP can

affix a rubber stamp or create a suitable system that will clearly show on the SOT that the account has been closed. Consolidation of Account

Some clients could have opened multiple accounts to dematerialize their shares held in multiple combinations an sequence of names. However they may not need so many accounts after they have dematerialized their shares and may want to bring all their share holdings into one of fewer accounts. This can be achieved by using normal off market transfer instruction. instruct ion. Closure by DP The DP may also initiate closure of a client‟s if the client has defaulted in

performing its obligations laid out in the client-participant agreement. The participant should give sufficient notice to the client before initiating closure of his account. The notice should clearly state the reasons of closure of account. The process of closing account in such a case is the same that of client-initiated closure.

Once the new CM-BP-ID is allotted the new DP opens a new clearing account and intimates the depository advises the old DP to close the account. The old DP then closes the account and intimates the clearing member. All pay-out of securities, subsequent to closure of old clearing account takes place in the new account. 2.17.2.3.

Stock exchanges offer different market segments in which trades can be done. The segmentation is done by the type of settlement or type of trade. Each of the segments is denoted ad „Market Type‟ in NSDL depository

system. The stock exchange which offers these market types, generally, recognize these settlements with a two character code, the DI slip should contain the market type for which securities are being transferred to the clearing member. The contract note/trade confirmation slip given by the broker/sub-broker will indicate the market type. Settlement Number

Trading periods of each of the market segments is identified by a settlement number. Every settlement number has a trade beginning day, trade-ending day, settlement pay-in day and settlement pay-out day. Stock exchanges divide a period of one year in to several settlement periods and allocate settlement number for each settlement-period. All these days collectively are called „settlement calendar‟. DPM system will give complete details of settlement calendar for each stock exchange. Delivery Deadline

Stock exchange set a deadline time by which clearing member are expected to deliver securities. Clearing member can deliver securities within the deadline time only if they have received securities from their clients. 66

In order to ensure that clients give securities in time to the clearing member, SEBI has prescribed deadline time by which clients have to give securities to clearing members. SEBI has advised DPs to instruct their clients to submit the settlement instructions on T+1 (in physical form up to 4.00p.m. and 6 p.m. in case of electronic instructions) for pay-in of securities viz.; instruction, CM Pool to CM Pool account transfers and Delivery-out instruction, etc. For example, pay-in for trades executed on „Monday‟ will be on Wednesday. Hence, Client will have to submit

instructions to their Participants (up to 4 p.m. in case of physical and up to 6 p.m. in case of electronic instructions) on Tuesday. The client must submit the delivery instruction slip to its Depository Participant before the DPs acceptance deadline, Automatic Delivery-out 

Delivery-out instructions for moving securities from CM settlement account to CM delivery account can be generated automatically by the respective clearing corporations based on the net delivery obligation of its clearing members. The clearing corporation can generate auto Dos will be generated around the time of download of the delivery obligations to the clearing members. Such clearing members will not be required to give delivery  –out instruction forms to the participants for pay-in to the clearing corporation in respect of the automatically generate Dos.



Auto DOs will not be generated in the following cases and the clearing members will have to give delivery-out instruction forms to their participants as usual: 

Irreversible delivery-out (IDO)



Shifting of CM settlement account from one participant to another participant



Clearing members will be required to give inter-settlement instructions to the participants for securities lying in another settlement s ettlement as usual.



Participants can generate separate reports from the DPM both for auto DOs and manual Dos.

done with the intention of taking delivery of shares or monies. 

3.2. Duration of the Project Project duration: 15 DAYS  study in Motilal oswal securities limited.

3.3. Objective of Study The stock exchange of the country is the important part of the capital market. It provides the investors a platform to invest in different securities. The well regulated stock exchange is in the interest of both the company‟s as well as the investors.

In India the stock exchange provide a good leverage to the capital market, but it is not very easy to get profit out of this market, for this knowledge is must about the market. the knowledge can be obtained by knowing the security market . Knowledge of security market is very important to a management student.

3.4. Type of Research Research type is EXPLORATORY 

71

3.5. Sample Size and method of selecting sample Sample size is 100 people, and sample method is STRATIFIED SAMPLING 

3.6. Scope of Study After conducting the research at Motilal Oswal Securities Limited at sumerpur on equity research , many stages are undertaken as guidance towards appearing at conclusion like interaction with staff ,questionnaire , questionnaire survey and percentage analysis. As the questionnaire are targeted to get filled by general public who keeps interest in investment and have an idea about equity .so I got the opportunity to know certain facts about this securities market . Whatever conclusions I have drawn from this research part are mentioned below: Presently in India, securities market is not so much established and popular, there is only a small portion of people who are being an active part of this market as an investor. Most of the people invest only 20% to 40% of their saving in this market and their basic criteria to invest in this market is achieving higher returns. Most of the investors want to enjoy higher returns by investing in this market. Most of the investors, who are investing in this securities market, are choosing the securities on the basic of goodwill of the company although they prefer and believe that technical analysis produces good and accurate result but still as these technical analysis is not so easy to understand they choose their securities on the basis of the reputation of the company. If we look upon those people who are using technical analysis then we will find that most of the people who choose the securities by doing technical analysis are using moving average as the most easy and suitable tool. Riskier long-term saving requires that an individual possess the ability to manage the associated increased risks. Stock prices fluctuate widely, in marked contrast to the stability of (government insured) bank deposits or bonds. This is something that could affect not only the individual investor or household, but also the economy on a large scale.

72

The following deals with some of the risks of the financial sector in general and the stock market in particular. This is certainly more important now that so many newcomers have entered the stock market, or have acquired other 'risky' investments (such as 'investment' property, i.e., i. e., real estate and collectables). With each passing year, the noise level in the stock market rises. Television commentators, financial writers, analysts, and market strategists are all over talking each other to get investors' attention. At the same time, individual investors, immersed in chat rooms and message boards, are exchanging questionable and often misleading tips. Yet, despite all this available information, investors find it increasingly difficult to profit. Stock prices skyrocket with little reason, then plummet just as quickly, and people who have turned to investing for their children's education and their own retirement become frightened. Sometimes there appears to be no rhyme or reason to the market, only folly. INDIA – THE LAND OF OPPORTUNITY

India is no longer the country of Taj Mahal, elephants & snake charmers only but has become the land of opportunities. The old age tag line of “Bird of Gold” is

slowly getting prominence and acceptance in this modern competitive environment. We as a country have seen it all  – Ruled by the outsiders, Gaining Independence, Green Revolution, and Political Coalitions but above all, the growth of our economy from US$ 10 billion USD to over US$ 1.2 trillion tri llion since independence. This is just the beginning of the growth that we have embarked upon and will cross many more milestones in the journey towards US$ 2 trillion to 3 to 4 and so on and so forth. What is driving growth in our country, when the world is struggling to keep their head above water? What are the businesses that will provide the much needed impetus to our economy which will make the world sit and notice? What will make the world believe that “Ignore India at its own peril”?

Our GDP contributors have been changing from dominance by Agriculture to Services & Manufacturing. 30 years back agriculture used to contribute over 30% to our GDP but the same has dropped to under 15% whereas Service sector has increased from over 30% to over 50%. The entrepreneur spirit couple with the service mindset has helped us in reaching such high growth in services sector. The manufacturing sector contribution has increased from 19% to over 28% during the same period. Indian opportunity so exciting from an investment destination Expanding per capita: The 1 billion plus population is the most promising

opportunity that any business can look at. The below the poverty line population has fallen from 93% in 1985 to less than 50% currently and is expected to come down further to below 25% by 2025. This will bring a large part of deprived population under the consumption net. What doubles the excitement is that fact that over 60% of the population is below the age of 35. This demographic change will present a huge opportunity for the companies catering to consumption. Fiscal Discipline: The ministry of finance has been working overtime to

control and bring down the fiscal deficit. The fiscal discipline will improve the quality of finance of the country and will allow the government to make money available for growth. The current 3G and BWA auction has just helped the cause. Government, the big spender: The biggest challenge for the government is

to impart fiscal discipline but at the same time do not compromise on the growth story across key sectors like Infrastructure. To bridge the gap and execute large projects, government is seeking private participation in projects like Airport modernization, Metro railways etc.

74

We are currently spending 6.50% of GDP on infrastructure and the same is expected to go up to 9% by 2013. This will give a huge boost to the economy and will create large employment opportunities thereby increasing the purchasing power of people. Savings boom: By nature and culture, we are savers and do not believe in

leveraging ourselves as individuals. The Indian savings rate is between 35 to 40% thereby giving a huge opportunity to BFSI sector to be instrumental in such large savings. With GDP all set to grow to 2 trillion USD, our savings will be close to 1 trillion USD. There are also some people who are investing in securities market by using market calls and tips as the base to choose the securities, but they are not so much about the result of these market calls and tips, they didn‟t believe that these calls and tips are so much fruitful but as they are not very much aware regarding the technical tools, they have to use market calls and tips. It is the believe of investor that technical analysis is not very easy to understand, but as the securities market is growing day by day so investors are trying to understand these technical tools we can say now people are being interested to learn about technical analysis. It is a good indication that people are now interested and excited to know about technical analysis of securities and they want to choose the securities on the basis of technical analysis so all the companies related to securities market like Bonanza should encourage and motivate their know investors and clients to use of most easy technical tools to them.

3.7. Limitation of Study The various limitations which are found by me in market are:

Lack of awareness of stock market: - Since the area is not known before it takes lot of time in convincing people to start investing in share primarily in IPO‟s.



Mostly people comfortable with traditional brokers: - As people are doing trading from their respective broker, they are quite comfortable to trade via phone.



Some respondents are unwilling to talk: - Some respondents either do not have time or willing does not respond, as they are quite annoyed with the phone call.



Lake of techno savvy people and poor internet penetration:-Since most of the people are quite experienced and also they are not techno savvy. Also internet penetration is poor in India.



Inaccurate leads: - Sometimes leads are provided which had error in it which varies from only 5 digit phone number to wrong phone number.



Misleading concepts: - Some people think that shares are too risky and just another name of gamble but they don‟t know it‟s not at all that risky for long

investors.

4. Facts and Findings Fundamental Analysis helps us understand in which stock we should invest In equity market there is continuous growth in number of contracts but fewer understand on what basis they are investing. The fact & findings for the above research are as follows:-



Mostly of investors which lies in 1 lac category like to invest more, and less than 10000 or 10000 is not take initiative to invest in security market.



Most of the investors only invest in stock because of goodwill of the company. only 8% of people invest in stock because of popularity of security , it means that most of the people don‟t have the knowledge of security market





About 65% of investor does not easily understand the technical analysis of stock. Means they believe on technical analysis but they don‟t have so much of 

knowledge of it. 

The investor knowledge about the stock market and company. This sumerpur city survey was conducted to know the investor awareness and perception about company.
