STOCK MARKET

A stock market, or (equity market), is a private or public market for


the trading of company stock and derivatives of company stock at an
agreed price; these are securities listed on a stock exchange as well
as those only traded privately.

The size of the world stock market is estimated at about $51 trillion.
The world derivatives market has been estimated at about $480
trillion face or nominal value, 12 times the size of the entire world
economy. It must be noted though that the value of the derivatives
market, because it is stated in terms of notional values, and cannot
be directly compared to a stock or a fixed income security, which
traditionally refers to an actual

value. Many such relatively illiquid securities are valued as marked


to model, rather than an actual market price.
The stocks are listed and traded on stock exchanges which are entities a corporation or mutual
organization specialized in the business of bringing buyers and sellers of stocks and securities
together. The stock market in the United States includes the trading of all securities listed on the
NYSE, the NASDAQ, the Amex, as well as on the many regional exchanges, e.g. OTCBB and
Pink Sheets. European examples of stock exchanges include the London Stock Exchange, the
Deutsche Borse and the Paris Bourse.

INDUSTRY PROFILE
3.1 HISTORY OF STOCK EXCHANGE

The only stock exchanges operating in the 19th century were those of Bombay set up in
1876 and Ahmedabad set up in 1894. These were organized as voluntary non profit-making
association of brokers to regulate and protect their interests. Before the control on securities
trading became central subject under the constitution in 1960, it was a state subject and the
Bombay securities contracts (control) Act of 1926 used to regulate trading in securities. Under
this act, the Bombay stock exchange was recognized in 1927 and Ahmedbad in 1937.

During the war boom, a number of stock exchanges were organized in Bombay,
Ahmedbad 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 committee’s recommendations and public
discussion, the securities contracts (regulation) Act became law in 1966.

DEFINITION OF STOCK EXCHANGE

“Stock exchange means any body or individuals whether incorporated or not, constituted
for the purpose of assisting, regulating or controlling the business of buying, selling or dealing in
securities”.

It is an association of member brokers for the purpose of self-regulation and protecting


the interests of its members.
It can operate only if it is recognized by the Government under the securities contracts
(regulation) Act, 1966. The recognition is granted under section 3 of the Act by the central
government, Ministry of Finance.

BYLAWS
Besides the above act, the securities contracts (regulation) rules were also made in 1976
to regulative certain matters of trading on the stock exchanges. There are also bylaws of the
exchanges, which are concerned with the following subjects.

Opening / closing of the stock exchanges, timing of trading, regulation of blank transfers,
regulation of Badla or carryover business, control of the settlement and other activities of the
stock exchange, fixating of margin, fixation of market prices or making up prices, regulation of
taravani business (jobbing), etc., regulation of brokers trading, brokerage chargers, trading rules
on the exchange, arbitrage and settlement of disputes, settlement and clearing of the trading etc.

3.2 REGULATION OF STOCK EXCHANGES

The securities contracts (regulation) act is the basis for operations of the stock exchanges
in India. No exchange can operate legally without the government permission or recognition.
Stock exchanges are given monopoly in certain areas under section 19 of the above Act to ensure
that the control and regulation are facilitated. Recognition can be granted to a stock exchange
provided certain conditions are satisfied and the necessary information is supplied to the
government. Recognition can also be withdrawn, if necessary. Where there are no stock
exchanges, the government licenses some of the brokers to perform the functions of a stock
exchange in its absence.

3.3 SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE BOARD OF INDIA (SEBI).

SEBI was set up as an autonomous regulatory authority by the government of India in 1988 “to
protect the interests of investors in securities and to promote the development of, and to regulate
the securities market and for matter connected therewith or incidental thereto”. It is empowered
by two acts namely the SEBI Act, 1992 and the securities contract (regulation) Act, 1966 to
perform the function of protecting investor’s rights and regulating the capital markets.

3.4BOMBAY STOCK EXCHANGE


This stock exchange, Mumbai, popularly known as “BSE” was established in 1876
as “The Native share and stock brokers association”, as a voluntary non-profit making
association. It has an evolved over the years into its present status as the premiere stock
exchange in the country. It may be noted that the stock exchanges the oldest one in Asia, even
older than the Tokyo stock exchange, which was founded in 1878.

The exchange, while providing an efficient and transparent market for trading in
securities, upholds the interests of the investors and ensures redressed of their grievances,
whether against the companies or its own member brokers. It also strives to educate and
enlighten the investors by making available necessary informative inputs and conducting
investor education programs.

A governing board comprising of 9 elected directors, 2 SEBI nominees, 7 public


representatives and an executive director is the apex body, which decides is the apex body,
which decides the policies and regulates the affairs of the exchange.

The Exchange director as the chief executive offices is responsible for the daily today
administration of the exchange.

BSE INDICES :

In order to enable the market participants, analysts etc., to track the various ups and
downs in the Indian stock market, the Exchange has introduced in 1986 an equity stock index
called BSE-SENSEX that subsequently became the barometer of the moments of the share prices
in the Indian stock market. It is a “Market capitalization weighted” index of 30 component stocks
representing a sample of large, well-established and leading companies. The base year of sensex
1978-79. The Sensex is widely reported in both domestic and international markets through print
as well as electronic media.
Sensex is calculated using a market capitalization weighted method. As per this
methodology the level of the index reflects the total market value of all 30-component stocks
from different industries related to particular base period. The total market value of a company is
determined by multiplying the price of its stock by the nu7mber of shared outstanding.
Statisticians call index of a set of combined variables (such as price and number of shares) a
composite Index. An indexed number is used to represent the results of this calcution in order to
make the value easier to go work with and track over a time. It is much easier to graph a chart
based on Indexed values than on based on actual valued world over majority of the well-known
Indices are constructed using “Market capitalization weighted method”.

In practice, the daily calculation of SENSEX is done by dividing the aggregate market
value of the 30 companies in the index by a number called the Index Divisor. The divisor is the
only link to the original base period value of the SENSEX. The Devisor keeps the Index
comparable over a period value of time and if the references point for the entire Index
maintenance adjustments. SENSEX is widely used to describe the mood in the Indian stock
markets. Base year average is changed as per the formula new base year average = old base year
average*(new market value / old market value).

3.5 NATIONAL STOCK EXCHANGE

The NSE was incorporated in Nov, 1992 with an equity capital of Rs.26 crs. The
international securities consultancy (ISC) of Hong Kong has helped in setting up NSE. ISC has
prepared the detailed business plans and initialization of hardware and software systems. The
promotions for NSE were financial institutions, insurances, companies, banks and SEBI capital
market ltd, Infrastructure leasing and financial services ltd and stock holding corporations ltd.

It has been set up to strengthen the move towards professionalisation of the capital
market as well as provide nation wide securities trading facilities to investors.
NSE is not an exchange in the traditional sense where brokers own and manage the
exchange. A two tier administrative set up involving a company board and a governing aboard of
the exchange is envisaged.

NSE is a national market for shares PSU bonds, debentures and government securities
since infrastructure and trading facilities are provided.
NSE-NIFTY:

The NSE on Apr22, 1996 launched a new equity Index. The NSE-60. The new Index
which replaces the existing NSE-100 Index is expected to serve as an appropriate Index for the
new segment of future and option.

“NIFTY” mean National Index for fifty stocks. The NSE-60 comprises fifty companies that
represent 20 board industry groups with an aggregate market capitalization of around Rs 1,
70,000 crs. All companies included in the Index have a market capitalization in excess of Rs. 600
crs each and should have trade for 86% of trading days at an impact cost of less than 1.6%.

The base period for the index is the close of price on Nov 3 1996, which makes one year
of completion of operation of NSE’s capital market segment. The base value of the index has
been set at 1000.
NSE-MIDCAP INDEX

The NSE madcap index or the junior nifty comprises 60 stocks that represent 21st board
industry groups and will provide proper representation of the midcap segment of the Indian
capital market. All stocks in the Index should have market capitalization of grate than Rs.200 crs
and should have traded 86% of the trading days at an impact cost of less than 2.6%.

The base period for the index is Nov 4 1996, which signifies 2 years for completion of
operations of the capital market segment of the operations. The base value of the Index has been
set at 1000.

Average daily turn over of the present scenario 268212 (Laces) and number of average
daily trades 2160(Laces).

of a company's working capital (day-to-day operational needs). Trade financing is provided by vendors
and suppliers who sell their products to the company at short-term, unsecured credit terms, usually 30
days. Equity and debt financing are usually used for longer-term investment projects such as investments
in a new factory or a new foreign market. Customer provided financing exists when a customer pays for
services before they are delivered, e.g. subscriptions and insurance

COMMODITY FUTURES TRADING THROUGH:

COMMODITY MARKET

India has a deep ingrained knowledge in commodity


trading (and particularly forward trading in
commodities), especially in the interior heartland. For
last 40 years or so, such forward (futures) trading was
banned in the country for a variety of reasons and it is
being revived now. The ban has meant that two
generations have lost touch with the trading skills and
the related knowledge levels in the commodity space.
Fortunately much of the skill sets have migrated to
stock exchanges.

In these intervening years, some regional exchanges


specializing in specific commodities, where the bans
were lifted, have carried on the baton. Also large
informal trading, primarily by the speculative segment
of the universe of market participants has remained.
This has led to a mindset in the common man in the
country that commodity exchanges are purely
speculative in nature. The hedging and price discovery
functions that they perform are largely ignored today
by the cross section of the population.

Our endeavor is to reach to the producers, end-users,


and even the retail investors, at a grassroots level.
Education and awareness has a key role to play in
achieving this vision

WHY COMMODITY MARKET?

Commodity derivatives records high volumes in the


markets the world over compared to equity derivatives.
In an era where risks to investments are on the rise and
India being predominantly an agrarian economy, needs
to switch to commodity derivatives to top the list of
developed nations.
UNDERSTANDING THE COMMODITIES MARKETS

Indian markets have recently thrown open a new avenue for retail
investors and traders to participate: commodity derivatives. For
those who want to diversify their portfolios beyond shares, bonds
and real estate, commodities is one of the best options.

Commodities actually offer immense potential to become a separate


asset class for market-savvy investors, arbitrageurs and speculators.
Commodities are easy to understand and are based on the
fundamentals of demand and supply. Retail investors should
understand the risks and advantages of trading in commodities
futures before taking a leap. Historically, prices in commodities
futures have been less volatile compared with equity and bonds, thus
providing an efficient portfolio diversification option.

Like any other market, the one for commodity futures plays a valuable role in information pooling and
risk sharing. The market mediates between buyers and sellers of commodities thus making the underlying
market more liquid

Shriram Group’s businesses strive to serve the largest number of common people. Consider
these: Commercial Vehicle Financing, Consumer & Enterprise Finance, Retail Stock Broking,
Life Insurance, Chit Funds and Distribution of Investment & Insurance Products. Our foray into
Non-Life (General) Insurance is again a strong expression of this commitment.

CHAPTER- 5

THEORETICAL FRAME WORK


Rules and Regulations

The Government has framed rules under the Securities Contract (Regulation) Act SC(R)A, SEBI
Act and the Depositories Act. SEBI has framed regulations under the SEBI Act and the
Depositories Act for registration and regulation of all market intermediaries, for prevention of
unfair trade practices, insider trading, etc. Under these Acts, Government and SEBI issue
notifications, guidelines, and circulars, which need to be complied by the market participants.
The self-regulatory organizations (SROs) like stock exchanges have also laid down their rules
and regulations for market participants.

Regulators
The regulators ensure that the market participants behave in a desired manner so that the
securities market continues to be a major source of finance for corporate and government and the
interest of investors are protected. As noted earlier, the responsibility for regulating the securities
market is shared by DEA, Ministry of
Corporate Affairs, SEBI and RBI.

SEBI (Intermediaries) Regulations, 2008


One of the main functions of SEBI is to register and regulate the functioning of various types of
intermediaries and persons associated with securities market in a manner as to ensure smooth
functioning of the markets and protection of interests of the investors. These intermediaries, as
detailed in the SEBI Act are: stock-brokers, sub- broker, share transfer agents, bankers to an
issue, trustees of trust deed, registrars to an issue, merchant bankers, underwriters, portfolio
managers, investment advisers, depositories, participants, custodians of securities, foreign
institutional investors, credit rating agencies, asset management companies, clearing
members of a clearing corporation, trading member of a derivative segment of a
stock exchange, collective investment schemes, venture capital funds, mutual funds,
and any other intermediary associated with the securities market.
SEBI had issued regulations governing the registration and regulatory framework for
each of these intermediaries. However, given the fact that many requirements and
obligations of most intermediaries are common, SEBI has recently consolidated these
requirements and issued the SEBI (Intermediaries) Regulations, 2008. These
regulations were notified on May 26, 2009.
These regulations apply to all the intermediaries mentioned above, except foreign
institutional investors, foreign venture capital investors, mutual funds, collective
investment schemes and venture capital funds.
The salient features of the Regulations are as under:

The suggestion to exchange authorities is to take steps to educate investors about their rights and

obligation , try to increase investors confidence. I suggest the exchange authorities to be

vigilant to curb wide fluctuations of prices on the exchanges in the prices ,not attracting to the

genuine investors to the greater extents towards the market .Try to explain them how fraud will

take place so that they will be alert and they can take necessary steps to avoid the frauds.

persons who operate should have minimum knowledge.

 Due to invention of online trading here has been greater benefit to the investors as they

could buy/sell shares as and when required.

 Most of the investors like to trade along with brokers.

 It has to take necessary steps to attract the customers through the Internet.

CHAPTER- 8

CONCLUSION

&

BIBLIOGRAPHY
CONCLUSION AND SUGGESTIONS

Today various people are investing in stock without having proper knowledge about it , they only
listen to their broker sayings and in the end face huge losses , stock predication is very difficult
or say impossible no one can predict the future as has been brilliant shown in the Hollywood
movie paycheck

If people know the truth and have knowledge about the market than can take some risks. Stock
can’t be predicted no one is sure what going to happen the next movement it’s a much volatile
market. If someone is sure about the up trepanned than why the stop loss being set if because
there is no surety

Therefore, people should have knowledge about the market than they should enter it as it would
lead in minimizing the losses and playing a more safe game of investing money. More reliable
techniques should come to facilitate people and it should be simple also.
