Introduction:
The history of the Indian capital markets and the stockmarket, in particular can be traced back to 1861 when the American Civil War began. The opening of the Suez Canal during the 1860s led to a tremendous increase in exports to the United Kingdom and United States.
Several companies were formed during this period and many banks came to the fore to handle the finances relating to these trades. With many of these registered under the British Companies Act, the Stock Exchange, Mumbai, came into existence in 1875. It was an unincorporated body of stockbrokers, which started doing business in the city under a banyan tree. Business was essentially confined to company owners and brokers, with very little interest evinced by the general public. There had been much fluctuation in the stock market on account of the American war and the battles in Europe. There are many other factors which affect the Indian equity markets.

Customer needs and expectations are evolving in the face of increasing personal wealth, more private funding of pensions and healthcare and the desire for ever more accessible and personalized financial products and services. In turn, intense competition has squeezed industry margins and forced organizations to cut costs while still seeking to enhance the quality of client choice and service. The battle for talent is also heating up as companies seek to enhance innovation, customer loyalty and investment returns.
The corollary of this market evolution is increasing risk as products become more complex, organizations more diffuse and the business environment ever more uncertain. Regulation is also tightening in the wake of public and government pressure for improved governance, transparency and accountability. In this environment, the winners will be companies that can turn the challenges into opportunities to build stronger and more enduring customer relationships; sharpen process efficiency; unlock talent and creativity; use improved risk management processes to deliver more sustainable returns; and use new regulatory demands as a catalyst for strengthening the business and enhancing market confidence. Organizations will also need to identify and concentrate on core competencies where they can exert maximum competitive advantage, be this particular product, service, process or geographical territory. For some this will require a strategic re-orientation towards becoming a specialist niche provider. Even larger groups will need to differentiate their offering and by implication the associated brand.

Babasabpatilfreepptmba.com
Page 39
Interpretation:
From the above graph we observe that the Cement sector as whole has started it from the scratch and made it big in the last five years. Major highlighting points in the cement sector are:
The major cement factories like ACC and Grasim had their returns as low as 22% and 57.695 respectively in year 2004.
Due to governments focus on Infrastructure development the demand for cement and cement products increased tremendously from year 2005. So the returns also increased proportionately for these two companies.
The demand for the Cement and cement products increased as there was limit for the production of cement in India and so the prices also increased. This resulted into heavy returns for companies. It touched high points in the year 2007 when there was bullish market.

REFINERIES SECTOR

Babasabpatilfreepptmba.com
Page 41
Interpretation:
From the above graph we can see that the refineries are having some diversified growth in the last five years. Some of the major points to be seen in this sector are as follows:
In the year 2004 the refinery sector had a minimal returns. Private refinery like Reliance Industries had just 0.68% growth while BPCL is in negative returns of -1.49%.
In the year 2005 there was sufficient growth in this sector, Reliance had returns of almost 47% while BPCL had just 1.19%.
Due to ever risisng global and domestic demands and rising cude prices in recent times the Page 42
Babasabpatilfreepptmba.com
On the other hand, BPCL is government owned petrol distributor in the country. It has to abide by several laws which makes it to supply the fuels in very subsidised rates. This made company to suffer heavy losses and in return to lose its returns.
ELECTRICAL EQUIPMENT

Interpretations:
From the above graph it can be seen that there had been rise and fall in the returns of this sector. Highlights of this sector are as follows: The growth of returns for this sector moved on almost simultaneously for all the companies. Three major players in these sectors namely ABB, BHEL and Siemens. ABB and BHEL are into production of Power generating equipments so there has been a tremendous growth in these two firms during the past five years. In the year 2005 all the companies have shown tremendous growth in their returns. Heavy equipment producer Siemens had shown more than 300% growth. Due to thrust of government on the Power sector there has been high growth in the returns of the companies like ABB, BHEL. It can be seen from the graph that the return of BHEL started from 30% in year 2004 has risen to 334% in 2008.

BANKING SECTOR

Page 45
Interpretations:
From the above graph it can be seen that there had been rise in the returns of this sector. Highlights of this sector are as follows:
The returns during the year 2004 were almost similar due to various Reserve bank policy, it liberalized the businesses of all the banks. Accordingly the returns started increasing, as we can see, HDFC Bank had returns of 23.5%, ICICI had 22% and Punjab National Bank had highest returns among these banks with returns of 48%.
There were some government reforms during the year 2005 which helped the bank earn more incomes. The banks had more miscellaneous incomes during the year which also resulted into higher incomes. One more reason for the higher incomes would be the consolidated business made by the banks. This is why the returns increased to its peak during the year 2007.

The above table can be represented in the form of graph as follows. Babasabpatilfreepptmba.com Page 47
Interpretations:
From the above graph we can observe that there has been good growth in the sector in the recent five years. The major highlights of this sector are:
It can be seen that almost all the automobile sector had similar earning in the year 2004. As it is said that there is null before storm, it was period before boom in automobile sector. The returns upon each share were in range of 25%- 87%.
As the spending behavior of a consumer of people changed there was heavy demand for the vehicles in country. This could be due to various reasons like High salary, high disposable income and also high standard of living.
The trend has reached its peak in the year 2007 where there were several launch of two wheelers and four wheelers in the market. Therefore there had been the highest returns earned during that particular year.
Babasabpatilfreepptmba.com
Page 48
Babasabpatilfreepptmba.com
Page 49
Interpretation: This sector has shown tremendous growth in the last few years. This sector had even shown growth more than the GDP of the country. Some of highlighting points of this sector are as follows: The major markets for the software company were the US market and had a flourishing market in the year 2004 where returns were considerably good. The returns continued to be high even in the year 2005 but reached its peak during the year 2006 were companies like HCL and Satyam were earning returns almost 100% or even more than it. The other reason of this sector would be the government thrust on the IT sector and heavy deduction of taxes for such companies in India. Almost all the companies enjoyed tax holiday and facilities to develop IT park. But the returns started diminishing from 2007 onwards due to the change in the global environment such as recession of American economy where these companies had major contracts. This can be seen as HCL which was having returns of 89% soared down to just 17% in year 2008. While Satyam soared comparatively less from 84% to 53%. But still investing in this sector is still considered good since it is ever developing type of sector. Babasabpatilfreepptmba.com Page 50

Interpretation:
From the above graph we can observe that there have been diversified returns of the companies. One company is making huge returns while the other one is making huge losses. The major highlighting factors are as follows:
All the companies were having negative returns during the year 2004. There is no particular reason why the companies were having loss. The one major reason would be of losing the business. This can be seen in the graph were Ranbaxy was the least loser with -3.68%.
Ranbaxy Lab suffered huge losses during the last five years. the reasons are several like losing the case and major failure of its products. There were also news of selling the company which finally happened in the year 2008. This is why the returns started decreasing till -45% in the year 2008

Interpretation:
During the past five years there had been boom in the sector of construction and Engineering. There had been remarkable growth in returns during the last five years. Some of the highlighting points are: As the governments five year plan was development of the infrastructure there was demand for such companies in India. Unitech started with good return of 88% in the year 2004. While Engineering Company like L&T had a huge return of 137% in the year 2004.
