1. INRODUCTION

1. Introduction An investor means people who invest savings. Investment is an activity, which is different from savings. Savings are generated when a person abstains from present consumption for a future use. Savings kept as cash are barren and do not earn anything. Hence the saver has to find a temporary for his savings until they are required for his future. This results in investment. Today, investment has become a household word and is very popular with people from all walks of life. It is because of increase in working population, higher family incomes and consequent savings, availability of large and attractive investment alternatives, increase in investment related publicity and so on. Fundamental analysis is the process of looking at a business at the basic or fundamental financial level. This type of analysis examines key ratios of a business to detuning its financial health and gives you an idea of the value its stock. Many investors use fundamental analysis alone or in combination with other tools to evaluate stocks for investment purpose. The goal is to determine the current wealth and more importantly, how the market values the stock. The Return on Equity (ROE) is one measure of how efficiently a company uses its assets to produce earnings . The fundamental forecast stock prices on the basis of economic industry and company statistics. So this study also analyses the economy, the industry and company analysis to know the behavior of stock performance of the IT industry. One of the primary assumptions of the fundamental analysis is the price of the stock market does not fully reflect a stocks real value. In the financial jargon, this true value is known as the intrinsic value. If the market price is less than intrinsic value, then such shares are considered to be under priced and are suitable for investment. Thus the shares have to be held in hand or if necessary more shares can be brought as the share sis expected to move up in the future to match with its intrinsic value. If the market price is greater than the intrinsic value then such shares is considered to be overpriced and it is not suitable for investment. The market price of such shares may come down in future and the investors will sell such a share. This leads us to the second major assumptions of fundamental

analysis: in the long run, the stock market will reflect the fundamentals. There is no point in buying a stock based on intrinsic value if the price never reflected that value. 1.1 Objectives of the study 1.1.1 Primary Objective To carry out the fundamental analysis for five selected companies in the IT sector and to suggest whether to buy the scrip or not to invest based on the valuation(under priced or over priced) of shares. 1.1.2 Secondary Objectives Analyze the companies performance Understand the capital market and its functioning To compare theoretical knowledge with actual industry practice

1.2 Scope of the study The stock market is a major source of investment. The risk associated with the investment is relatively high compared to bank deposit and real estate, with high yield. Cochin stock exchange limited(CSE) is one of the premier stock exchange of India established in the year 1978. CSE: introduced the facility for computerized trading- Cochin Online Trading(COLT).

1.3 Limitations of the Study The data collected is secondary in nature Only 5 widely traded securities of the IT sector were taken for the study The accuracy and correctness of the tools used depends on the accuracy of the published accounts A detailed study was not possible due to shortage of time The inherent limitations of the fundamental analysis also exist here

1.4 Statement of the problem Indian has a well developed capital market which provides huge investment opportunity for investors.

2.1 Industry Profile 2.1.1 Indian capital market an overview Indian stock market is one of the oldest market in Asia. Its history dates back to nearly 200 years ago. The earliest record of security dealing in India is merger and obscure. The east Indian company was dominant institution in those days and business in its loan security used to be transacted towards close of the eighteenth century. By 18~0s business on stock rates and shares initiated in Bombay. Though the trading list was broader in 1839, there were only half a dozen brokers recognized by banks and merchants during 1840s. The 1850s witnessed a rapid development in commercial enterprise and brokerage business attracted many men into the field and by 1860s, the number of brokers increased into 60. In 1860-61, the American civil war broke out and cotton supply from United States to Europe was stopped. This increased the brokers in India to about 200 to 250. However by the end of the American Civil war in 1965, disastarous slumps begain( for example, Bank of Bombay share that had reached Rs.2850 could only be sold at Rs. 87). At the end of Mexican civil war the brokers who thrived out of civil war in 1874 found a place in a street( now called the Dalal street) where they would conveniently assemble and transact business. In 1887, they finally established in Bombay, The Native Share and stock Brokers Association( which is attractively known as The Stock Exchange).

3. LITERATURE REVIEW

33

3. Review of literature
Fundamental analysis is a sock valuation method that uses financial and economic analysis to predict the movement of stock prices. The fundamental information that is analyzed can include a companys financial reports, and non-financial information such as estimates of the growth of demand for products sold by the company, industry comparisons, and economy-wide changes, changes in government policies etc. Security analysis is the initial phase of the portfolio management process. This step consists of examining the risk-return characteristics of individual Securities. Fundamental analysis An investor who would like to be rational and scientific in his investment activity has to evaluate a lot of information about the past performance and the expected future performance of the companies, industries and the economy as a whole taking the investment decision. Such evaluation or analysis is called fundamental analysis. Fundamental analysis is really a logical and systematic approach to estimating in the future dividends by a number of fundamental factor relating to the economy, industry and company. Hence, the economy fundamentals, industry fundamentals and company fundamentals have to be considered while analyzing a security for investing purpose. It is in other words, a detailed analysis of the fundamental factors affecting the performance of companies. Each share is assumed to have an economics worth based on its present and future earning capacity. This is called its intrinsic value or fundamental value. The purpose of fundamental analysis is to evaluate the present and future earning capacity of a share based on the economy, industry and company fundamentals and there by asses the intrinsic value of the share. The investor can then compare the intrinsic value of the share with the prevailing market price to arrive at an investment decision. If the market price of the share is lower than its intrinsic value, the investor would decide to buy the share as it is under priced. The price of such a share is expected to move up in future to match with its intrinsic value.

34

On the contrary, when the market price of a share is higher than its intrinsic values, it is perceived to be over priced. The market price of such a share is expected to come down in future and hence the investor would decide to sell such a share. Fundamental analysis thus provides an analytical framework for rational investment decision-making. This analytical framework known as E-I-C framework, or economyindustry company analysis. Fundamental analysis thus involves three steps: 1. Economy analysis 2. Industry analysis 3. Company analysis 3.1 Economy analysis The performance of a company depends on the performance of the economy. If the economy is booming, incoming rise and demand for goodwill increase, the industries and companies in the general trend to be prosperous. On the other and if the economy is in recession, the performance of the company will be generally bad. Growth rate of National Income The rate of growth of the National Economy is an important variable to be considered by an investor. GNP, NNP and GDP are the different measures of the total income or total economic output of the country as a whole. The growth rate of these measures indicate the growth rate of the economy. The estimate of GNP, NNP, GDP and their growth rate are made available by the government from time to time. The estimated growth of the economy would be pointed towards the prosperity of the economy. An economy typically passes through different phases of prosperity known as the different stager of the economic or business cycle. The four stages of the economic cycle are depression, recovery, boom and recession. The stage of economic cycle through which a country passes has different impact on the performance of industries and companies. Infrastructure The development of an economy depends very much on the infrastructure available. Industry needs electricity for its manufacturing activities, road and railways to transport raw materials and finished

35

goods, communication channels to keep in touch with suppliers and customers. The availability of infrastructure facilities such as power, transportation and communication systems affect the performance of companies. Bad infrastructure leads to inefficiencies, louder productivity, wastage and delays. An investor should assess the status of the infrastructure facilities available in the economy before finalizing his investment plans. Monsoon The Indian economy is essentially an agrarian economy and agriculture is a important sector of the Indian Economy. Because of the strong forward and backward linkages between agriculture and industry, performance of several industries and companies are dependent to the performance of agriculture to a very great extend that depends on monsoon. The adequacy of the monsoon detains the success or failure of the agriculture activities in India. Hence the progress and adequacy of monsoon becomes a matter of great concern for an investor in Indian content. Economic and political stability A stable political environment is necessary for steady and balanced growth. No industry or company can grow and prosper in the midst of political turmoil. Stable long term economic policies are what that is needed for industrial growth. Such stable policies can emanate only through stable political system. 3.2 INDUSTRY ANALYSIS An investor ultimately invests his money in the securities of one or more specific companies. Each company can be characterized as belonging to an industry. The performance of companies would therefore be influenced by the fortunes of the industry to which it belongs. For this reason an analyst has to undergo an industry analysis so as to study the fundamental factors affecting the performance of different industries. At any stage in the economy, there are some industries which are fast growing while others are stagnating or declining. If an industry is growing, the companies within the industry may also be prosperous. The performance of companies will also depend on the state of the company to which it

36

belongs. Industry analysis refers to an evaluation of the relative strength and weakness of weakness of particular industries. An industry is generally described as a homogenous group of companies. We may define an industry as a group of firms producing reasonably similar products which serve the same needs of a common set of buyers. Industries are traditionally classifies as cement industry, steel, cotton, textile, software industry and so forth. However industry classification becomes difficult while dealing with firms having a diverse product line. And such firms are now on the trend. Due to the difficulties that they suffer, each country follows a standardized classification to facilitate data collection. The reports can effect the growth of other industries. Industry characteristics In an industry analysis, there are a number of key characteristics that should be considered by the analyst, These features broadly relate to the operational and structural aspects of the industry. They have a bearing on the prospects of the industry. Some of there are discussed below: Demand supply graph:

The demand for a product, usually tend to change at a steady rate. Whereas, the capacity to produce the product tends to change at regular intervals, depending upon the installation of additional production capacity. As a result am industry is likely to experience undersupply and oversupply of capacity at different times. Excess supply reduces the profitability of the industry through a decline in the Unit prize realization. Labour condition: The state of labour condition in the industry under analysis is an important consideration in an economy such as ours where the labour union are very powerful. If the labour in a particular industry is rebellious and is inclined to resort to strikes frequently. The prospects of that industry cannot become bright. Attitude of government The attitude of the government towards an industry has a significant impact on its prospects. The government may encourage the growth of certain industries can assist such industries through favorable legislation. 37

3.3 Company Analysis Company analysis is the final stage of fundamental analysis. The economy analysis provides the investors a broad outline of the prospects of growth in the economy. The industry analysis helps the investor to select the industry in which the investment would be rewarding. Now he should find the company in which, he should invest his money. Company analysis gives an answer to this question. Company analysis deals with the estimation of returns and risk of individual shares. This calls for information. Many pieces of information influences the investment decisions. Information regarding companies can be broadly classified into two groups: internal and external. Internal information consist of data and events made public by companies concerning their operations. The internal information source includes annual reports to shareholders, public and private statements of officers of the company, the companies financial statements, etc. External sources of information are those generated independently outside the company. Investment services and the financial press prepares these. In company analysis, the analyst tries to forecast the future earnings of the company because there is strong evidence and that earnings have a direct and powerful effect upon share prices level, trend and stability of earnings of a company, however depending upon a number of factors concerning the operations of the company. 3.4 FINANCIAL TOOLS Earnings Per Share (EPS) = Profit After Tax (PAT) No. of Equity share

3.6 Financial statements The prosperity of a company would depend upon its profitability and financial health. The financial statements published by a company periodically helps us to assess the profitability and financial health of the company. The two basic financial statement provided by the company are the balance sheet and profit and loss account. The first gives us the picture of the companies asset and liabilities while the second gives us a picture of its earnings. The balance sheet gives the list of assets and liabilities of a company on a specific date. The major categories of assets are fixed assets and current assets. Fixed assets are those assets, which are intended to be used up over a period of years. Current assets are those assets that are intended to be converted into cash in the near future (within 1 year). The major categories of liabilities are outside

40

liabilities and liabilities towards shareholders. The outside liabilities are categorized as short term liabilities and long term liabilities. The short term liabilities which are expected to be paid off within the next 1 year are known as the current liabilities. The balance sheet indicates the financial position of a company on a particular date namely, the last date of the accounting year. The profit and loss account also called income statement, reveals the revenue earned, the Cost incurred and the resulting profit or loss of the company for one accounting year. The profit after tax divided by the number of shares gives the Earnings per Share, which is a figure in which most investors are interested. The profit and loss account summarizes the activities of the company during an accounting year.
