INTRODUCTION
Capital Market:

The Capital Market is an important constitute of the financial system. It is a market for
long-term funds both equity, debt and funds raised within and outside the country.
The capital market aids economic growth by mobilizing the savings of the economic
sectors and directing the same towards channels of productive uses.
This is facilitated through the following measures.

Issue of primary securities in the primary market, i.e., directing cash flow from
the surplus sector to the deficit sectors such as the government and corporate
sector.

Issue of secondary securities in the primary market, i.e., directing cash flow
from the surplus sector to financial intermediaries such as banking & nonbanking financial institutions.

The development of an efficient capital market is necessary for creating a climate

conducive to investment and economic growth. The capital market comprises the

Primary Market

Secondary Market

Primary Market: Primary markets refers to the long-term flow of funds from the
surplus sector to the government and corporate sector (through primary issue), and
banks & non-banking financial intermediaries (through secondary issue).
Primary issues of the corporate sector lead to capital formation (creation of Net Fixed
Assets and incremental change in inventories).
The nature of fund raising is as follows:
Domestic:
Equity issues by

Corporate (Primary Issues).

Financial Intermediaries (Secondary Issues).

Debt instruments by

Government (Primary Issues).

Corporate (Primary Issues).

Other External Borrowings:

Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) in the form of Equity and Debt.

Foreign Institutional Investors (FIIs) in the form of Portfolio

Investments.

Non-Resident Indian Deposits (NRI) in the form of Short-term and

Medium-term Deposits.

The fund rising in the primary market can be classified as follows:

( I ) Public Issue by prospectus.
( II ) Private Placement.
( III ) Right Issues.
Secondary Market: Secondary market is a market for outstanding securities. Stock
Exchanges are called as Secondary markets.
Stock exchange is an organized market place where securities are traded. The
government bodies, semi-government bodies and public sector undertaking companies
issues these securities for borrowing funds and raising resources.
Securities are defined as monetary claims and includes stock, shares, debentures and
bonds etc,. if these securities are marketable as in the case of government stock, they are
transferable by endorsement and are like movable property.

the Central Government and such trading can take place only in stock exchanges,
recognized by the government, under the Act.

At present there are 23 stock exchanges in India. Of these, major stock exchanges like
Mumbai, Calcutta, Delhi, Chennai, Bangalore etc, are permanently recognized while a
few are temporarily recognized.
Functions of Stock Exchange:
The functions of the stock exchange can be setout as follows:

Provides an orderly regulated market for securities whose prices are determined
by free market forces of supply and demand.

Promotes savings and investment in the economy by attracting funds for

investment in corporate shares and securities.

LITERATURE REVIEW

Literature Review
TYPES OF SHARES:
Blue chip shares:
Shares of well known & established companies are called Blue chip shares they must
show consistent growth over the years. These shares have bright future prospects & they
are expected to contribute sustained growth in the future also.

Defensive shares:
These shares tend to fall less in bear market when compared with other shares & they
provide safe return for the investor money. In other words these shares naturally Blue
chip shares fall under this category also.
Growth shares:
They show increasing higher than average earnings per share than the industry. They are
good for long term investment, although the current yield of such shares can be
insignificant because of their higher P/E ratio.
Cyclical Vs Non cyclical shares:
Cyclical shares are those which rise in price with the state of the national economy of
the industries to which they belong like construction, auto mobiles, current, engineering
etc. They may also be affected by international economy of industries such as shipping,
aviation and tourism. They also include shares which are affected by natural
phenomenon like fertilizers etc. If the shares are not affected by such cyclical changes
either due to the state of the national economy or the international economy, they are
called non cyclical shares. Shares of drug companies, insurance companies & basic food
stuff of many consumer products companies come under this category.
Turn around shares:
These are those which either rise or fall all in a sudden due to turn around situations
prevailing in companies, they offers opportunities to investors to pick up the shares
when their price is low.
Active shares:
These are those in which are frequent and day to day dealings. They must be bought &
sold at least three times a week. Investors can buy or sell these shares quite easily in the
market.
Alpha shares:
Those which are most frequently traded in the market they are also called specified
shares or cleared securities. They are included under group A shares while listing one
stock exchange.

10

Sweat shares:
Those shares which are issued to employees or workers who contribute for development
of company by providing necessary know-how using their intellectual property. These
must be value addition to the company because of their active involvement in the
company & they contribute their right for the progress of company. Sweat shares are
indeed a reward for hard active & dedicated work for the development of company.

BLUE -CHIP SHARES:

There is a reason blue-chip shares are known as such they are named after the top ended
chips at the casino. Opting to buy these types of shares mean you get to buy into some
major companies that is, if you can afford it.
Blue-chip shares are investments in the bigger companies, usually listed in the stock
markets top-50. Generally these types of shares have been trading for a long time and
have a history of returning solid profits-which means regular dividends for their share
holders.
One of the advantages of blue-chip investments is that the dividend can be expected to
grow overtime if a business performs as forecast. The upshot? Your Investment grows
during times when share prices elsewhere may be stagnant, volatile or dropping.

GETTING THE BLUES:

Anyone who can afford to buy into a blue-chip company can become a share holder
from mums and dads to experienced share market investors. However, these shares
dont come cheap. Private investors can expect to pay high amount per share. However
often as well, you are required to buy a minimum no. of shares to get yours foot in the
door- this can restrict entry for many people.
Examples of blue-chip shares in India
1. State Bank of India
2. Ranbaxy
3. Reliance petroleum limited
4. Infosys technologies
5. Tata motors etc

NO RISK? THE SAFETY MYTH:

11

It is perceived safety of blue- chip shares that make them attractive to inexperienced
investors, such as your mums and dads, while blue-chip shares are those with the
highest market values, it doesnt mean they are necessarily a safe bet-losses can still
happen.
For example Satyam was once considered a blue-chip stock in India, but then collapsed
in 2008.
As well, investors who choose the blue-chip path can make of sitting back waiting for
dividends to roll in and not diversifying this investment portfolio. Putting all of your
eggs into one basket, so that speak, believing you are on a sure thing can be dangerous.
Should there a down turn in a certain sector, those investors who have not diversified
people for example who have shares in just one or two big companies such Reliance
group shares will fed it the most if the downturn impacts the sector their company
operation within. As with all investments, spreading your risk across companies,
industries, even countries is one way to reduce your exposure and risk, if safety is the
name of the game for you.

BECOME AN EXPERT:
Just as when you are looking to buy a home you read the news papers, go to see a no. of
properties, ask associates friends and family for advice and start to scrutinize banks for
good mortgage deals, before you invest you will also need to do some research read the
papers, talk to people, seek advice. Get familiar enough with the market to make up
your own mind about the sectors and countries you want to put your money in to and
base these decisions on real information, numbers, annual reports, industry trend data,
share price fluctuations not gut feel. The national Stock Exchange online is also a great
source of information. Employing a broker or financial planner is also a smart way to
invest using training wheels till you are confident enough to go it alone (or have more
time).

DRIP FEED YOUR STRATEGY:

After consulting with an advisor and developing a strategy, these days most people
make regular contribution to their investment funds via weekly or monthly direct debit.
Shares can be bought by setting up portfolio through a bank or financial planner or
buying from the electronic share market. Top buy electronically first you will need to
sign up as a client of a stock broking firms, such as Gen securities, Religare securities
limited etc.
12

VOLATILITY:
The relative rate at which the price of a security moves up and down. Volatility is found
by calculating the annualized standard deviation of daily change in price. If the price of
a stock moves up and down rapidly over short time periods, it has high volatility. If the
price almost never changes, it has low volatility.
A volatile market experiences unpredictable price fluctuations. In the context of the
bond market, volatility describes the change in the price of a bond in relation to a given
change in its yield to maturity. Implied volatility is the only component of the BlackScholes option-pricing model which is not known at the outset. When an option has
been traded the formula can be re-arranged to find the implied volatility at which the
pricing model will calculate the traded price to be 'fair value'. Historic volatility is the
annualized standard deviation of the relative rates of return of the daily closing prices
for a security over a particular period.

DSE forms body to update blue chip index

BSS, Dhaka
Dhaka Stock Exchange (DSE) has formed a 10-member committee to bring major
changes to its blue-chip DSE-20 index. Headed by former finance adviser to the past
caretaker government AB Mirza Azizul Islam, the committee includes former governor
of Bangladesh Bank Dr Mohammad Farashuddin and representatives from major trade
bodies and professional organizations, DSE President Rakibur Rahman told BSS on
Saturday. The committee is meeting Monday to review the index that has not been done
since its inception in January 1, 2001.
The DSE introduced the index as a benchmark for financially sound listed companies.
But the index apparently lost the status because the authorities had not updated it in the
past nine years. The DSE president said the committee would hold its debut meeting on
Monday to review the DSE-20 index for the first time.
Share investors and other stakeholders in the country's stock market had long been
claiming that the DSE-20 index does not represent the listed blue-chip companies as
some major blue- chip issues still remain out of it. Admitting the argument, the DSE
president said the committee would surely have discussions on the argument and would
suggest changes to the index to make it a real reflector of the blue-chip listed
companies.
"The committee will look into the financial performance of the listed companies
including their net asset value (NAV), profit and declared dividend in the past years to
recommend addition to the index or deduction from it," Rakibur Rahman said.
He indicated that a number of companies now included in the DSE-20 index would be
de-listed from it as their performances were not good during the last five years.

15

He, however, said the DSE was actively considering a DSE-30 index, replacing the
DSE-20 so that it would accommodate more companies, having sound fundamentals.
He said the committee would finalize its recommendations in the next six weeks. "We
are expecting to introduce the new DSE-30 index after the recommendations," he said.

Blue-chip: Halifax: to have and to hold

Tomorrow is a big day for savers with the Halifax, as they wait for shares in the new
bank to start trading. The latest indications suggest they will begin at around 700p - way
above initial estimates of up to 450p.
The question for savers is whether to sell now, and take a tidy profit, or tuck them away.
While savers will be delighted, it is more difficult for outsiders to decide if the shares
offer any value at these levels as a long- term investment. The Halifax is the largest
mortgage lender in the country, but it chose to convert to bank status for several reasons

Blue Chip investors want action

5:00AM Wednesday Jan 09, 2008
By Anne Gibson

Blue Chip investor Greta Norman says she is owed $6000 in rent on an
Auckland apartment. Photo / Dean Purcell
Angry Blue Chip investors want to rally to discuss their options over thousands of
dollars they say is owed to them in unpaid rent. Greta Norman, who is owed $6000
rental arrears on an Auckland apartment she owns with her husband, says she is willing
to be the catalyst for investors to meet and discuss their plight.
Yesterday, she created a new email address in the hope investors would send her details
so she can co-ordinate a mass meeting. Rent from her $840,000 inner-city apartment
stopped flowing into her bank account at the end of October and although she knows of
16

other investors in much the same situation, people could not contact each other, she
said. She had trouble getting information about her situation and complained of late rate
payments on her luxury unit to Auckland City and Auckland Regional Council. She had
experienced a number of problems over valuations and other issues and said she was
extremely worried. We need to get together and we're looking for direction and
leadership collectively," she said, hoping that legal and financial experts might attend
any rally to give advice. Another investor, James Abbott, is short of $2800 rent on his
$450,000 investment apartment in Eden Terrace and he is keen to meet others too. "I
would definitely be interested in joining other investors in any discussions."I feel a
group of investors together will be the only way to recover the money owed," he said.
Other disenchanted investors complained yesterday about problems. Kirsti Hansen, who
bought a $525,000 apartment through Blue Chip, said yesterday that she had also
experienced problems. Her November payment was late and after a series of difficulties,
she has sought to manage her apartment directly rather than dealing with the company.
Nicola Williamson said her late mother had a substantial investment with the company
and she had been trying to recover that money for some time. The cash was the deposit
on a Beach Road apartment in Parnell but the transaction had not settled and Blue Chip
still held the money, she said, describing her situation as "a nightmare".
Blue Chip's communications Chief Jonathan Knox defended the company and said that
in September investors were sent letters about a big change to business arrangements in
New Zealand and a new franchising system. This change had caused a few problems but
he said these would soon be resolved.
The company's analysis of rental payment problems showed that only about 0.2 per cent
of all people were affected, he said. Any outstanding rent problems would be resolved
"imminently which means instantaneously", Knox said. Clients had been kept well
informed and it was only media reports which had caused "jitters".

17

Knox said it was also wrong for investors to say they had
money in Blue Chip because Blue Chip means two new
companies - Diem and Mide - which traded under the Blue
Chip logo in New Zealand.
Literature has been a central experience for the majority of MIT's undergraduates for
more than 25 years: over that time approximately 75 percent of all undergraduates have
studied the subject.
Designed to serve students majoring, minoring, and concentrating in Literature as well
as those students who may get to take only one or two Literature subjects while at the
Institute, the Literature curriculum at MIT offers a wide range of undergraduate classes
at Introductory, Intermediate, and Advanced levels. Most classes are small and offer
significant opportunity for student writing and speaking. Many classes focus on
literature written in English, though we offer many others covering works in translation
from antiquity to yesterday.
Notable for its interdisciplinary variety and for its openness to film and other forms of
popular culture, the Literature program is also strong in traditional areas and historical
periods such as Renaissance and the 19th Century. Most classes at all levels are offered
once a year; many of the HASS-D introductory classes are offered every semester.

"Blue Chip" characteristics a study of managers' perceptions

Literature Review
Several authors have mentioned certain criteria for a stock to qualify as a "blue chip"
investment. The New Shorter Oxford Dictionary (Brown, 1993) defined "blue chip"
stocks as common stocks of "well-known" companies with a history of profit growth
and dividend payment as well as "quality management of products and services". In the
Dictionary of Finance and Investment Terms (Downes, 1985), a "blue chip" is a
common stock of a nationally known company reputed for its quality management. In
the International Dictionary of Securities Industries (Valentine, 1989), it is defined as
"an equity share of a large, safe and prestigious company". These dictionary definitions
18

are somewhat consistent with Stafford (1987), who opined that "blue chips" are shares
in "very sound, well-established and usually large companies", citing Prudential,
Unilever and ICI as examples.
In contrast to these somewhat qualitative definitions, Belsky (1993) gave a more
quantitative interpretation by listing the following requisite characteristics of "blue
chip" companies: (1) estimated revenues of at least US$300 million, (2) solid balance
sheets with debt of no more than 40 per cent of total capital, (3) likely profit growth of
at least 15 per cent, and (4) projected share price gains of 20 per cent or more. A
fundamentally similar set of criteria was enunciated by Willis (1993), although the
numerical conditions laid down were different. Essentially, Willis (1993) asserted that
"blue chip" companies are companies that dominate niches in their markets and that are
capable of solid long-term earnings growth potential. Both Belsky (1993) and Willis
(1993) considered "high sales turnover", "high profit growth" and "low debt-equity
ratio" to be important characteristics of a "blue chip" company.
Consistent with both Belsky (1993) and Willis (1993),, Hardy (1987) concurred that the
best stocks are those of companies that have little or no debt, inferring that a low debtequity ratio may provide some evidence of a company's "blue chip" status. However, he
cautioned that this cannot be the sole criterion; lack of debt may not be a mark of
quality if management is overly conservative and not willing to expand as rapidly as it
could with borrowed funds. Smart managers "maintain a judicious balance between
debt and equity capital". Profitability and stability were also highlighted by Hardy
(1987) as two key important criteria in determining which the best stocks are.

INDUSTRY PROFILE
STOCK EXCHANGE
HISTORY:
The only stock exchange operating in the 19th century was Bombay Stock
Exchange set up in 1875 and Ahmadabad set up in 1894. There were organized as
voluntary non-profit making association of brokers to regulate and protect their

Act if 1925 used to regulate trading in securities. Under this Act, the Bombay Stock
Exchange was recognized in 1927 and Ahmadabad in 1937.
During the war boom, a number of stock exchanges were organized even in Bombay,
Ahmadabad and other centers, but they were not recognized. Soon after it became a
central subject, central legislation was proposed and a committee headed by A.D.
Gorwala went into the bill for securities regulation. On the basis of the committees
recommendations and public discussion, the securities contracts (regulation) Act
became law in 1956.

NATIONAL STOCK EXCHANGE

The Organization:

22

The National Stock Exchange of India Limited has genesis in the report of the High
Powered Study Group on Establishment of New Stock Exchange, which recommended
promotion of The National Stock Exchange by financial institutions to provide access to
investors from all across the country on an equal footing. Based on the
recommendations, NSE was promoted by leading Financial Institutions at the best of
the Government of India and was incorporated in November 1992 as a tax paying
company unlike other stock exchanges in the country.
On its recognition as a stock exchange under The Securities Contracts (Regulation) Act,
1956 in April 1993, NSE commenced operations in the Wholesale Debt Market (WDM)
segment in June 1994. The capital market (Equity) segment commenced operations in
November 1994 and operations in Derivatives segment commenced June 2000.
The National Stock Exchange (NSE) is Indias leading stock exchange covering various
cities and town across the country. NSE was set up by leading institutions to provide a
modern, fully automated screen based trading system with national reach. The
exchange has brought about unparalleled transparency, speed and efficiency, safety and
market integrity. It has set up facilities that serve as a model for the securities industry
in terms of system practices, and procedures.
NSE has played a catalytic role in reforming the Indian securities market in terms of
micro structure, market practices and trading volumes. The market today uses slate of
art information technology to provide an efficient and transparent trading, clearing
and settlement mechanism, and has witnessed several innovations in products and
services viz., dematerialization of stock exchange governance, screen based trading,
compression of settlement cycles, dematerialization and electronic transfer of securities,
securities lending and borrowing, professionalization of trading members, fine-turned
risk management systems, emergence of clearing corporations to assume counter party
risks, market of debt and derivative instruments and intensive use of information
technology.
Technology:
Across the globe, developments in information, communication and network
Technologies have created paradigm shifts in the securities market operations.
Technology has enabled organizations to build new sources of competitive advantage,
bring about innovations in products and services, and to provide for new business
23

opportunities. Stock Exchanges all over the world have realized the potential of IT and
have moved over to electronic trading systems, which are cheaper, have wider reach and
provide a better mechanism for trade and post trade execution.
NSE believes that technology will continue to provide the necessary impetus for the
organization to retain its competitive edge and ensure timeliness and satisfaction in
customer service. In recognition of the fact that technology will continue to redefine the
shape of the securities industry, NSE stresses on innovation and sustained investment in
technology to remain ahead of competition.
Form around 400 cities spread all over the country. In the recent past, capacity
enhancement measures were taken up in regard to the trading systems so as to
effectively meet the requirements of increased users and associated trading loads. With
up gradation of trading hardware, NSE can handle up to 1 million trades per day. NSE
has also put in place NIBIS (NSEs Internet Based Information System) for on-line real
time dissemination of trading information over the Internet. In order to capitalize on in
house expertise in technology, NSE set up a separate company, NSE.IT, in October
1999. This IT expertise to provide a platform for taking up new IT assignments both
within and outside India and attaining global exposure.
The telecommunications network uses x.25 protocol and is the backbone of the
automated trading system. Each trading member trades on the NSE with other members
through a PC located in the trading members office, anywhere in India. The Trading
members on the wholesale Debt Market segment are linked to the central computer at
the NSE through dedicated 64kbps leased lines and VSAT terminals. These leased lines
are multiplexed using dedicated 2 mbps, optical-fiber links. The WDM participants
connect to the trading system through dial-up links.
The exchange uses powerful RISC based UNIX services, procured from Digital and HP
for the back office processing. The latest software platforms like ORACLES 7,
RDBMS, and GUPTA- SQL/ORACLE FORMS 4.5 Front- Ends, etc.; have been for the
