It is almost inevitable to incur indebtedness to all who generously

helped by sharing their invaluable time and rich experience with me,

without which this project would have never been accomplished.

No task can be achieved alone, particularly while attempting to finish

a project of such magnitude. It took many very special people to

facilitate it and support it. Hence, I would like to acknowledge all of their

valuable support and convey my humble gratitude to them.

First of all I thank the Indian marketers and advertisers who have

without fail produced, Surrogate Ads which we so often debate about. At

least they gave me a topic to work on and even realize the issue of

surrogate ads which I did not notice till now.

I would like to acknowledge my sincere gratitude to Mr.Amit Garg

(Branch Manager, Angel Broking Ltd. Ajmer Branch) for sharing his

valuable ideas, constructive criticism and motivation, which were the

guiding light during the entire tenure of this work.

Thank you all for supporting me in making this projects a reality.

Preface
Share trading in India is undergoing a transition and consolidation

phase witnessed never before. The competition is likely to become so

severe after the entry of many players, retaining a customer is most

difficult practice for any service provider.

Though India has a very big untapped market but the players will not

flourish unless they change the way the customers are being served.

Given the awareness level of today customers every player has to treat

with care and make the customer feel that he is the king. Number of

Online Share trader in India has crossed the line. More and more

customers are coming under this umbrella and many of the existing one

are changing pavilion. So customer retention and satisfaction is now more

important as it was never before. Players keep coming with new schemes

in order to attract new customers and retain the existing one. This is

being supplemented with increased advertising and brand building efforts.

Success of any organization depends upon its being proactive. An often

quoted marketing adage is to manage a business well is to manage its

future and to manage its future is to manage information.”

www.angeltrade.com [4]
To give the student of management a feel of real world situation they

are being sent to any organization where they work on a prescribed

problem or a topic and come out with various conclusions and suggestions.

I am very lucky as I got an opportunity to work with “angel broking”

LTD. which is showing phenomenal growth and success in its Sector.

My topic of study was “Studying the working process of

angel broking LTD.”

known and unknown reasons for customer satisfaction and retention. “To

err is human” and I am not an exception, valuable comments are always

welcomed since it will motivate to work with greater zeal and efficiency in

the future.

Executive
Summary
The summer internship at “Angel Broking” undertaken by us has given us

an exposure into the investment scenario in India. The project that we were involved

with while working at “Angel Broking” includes advisory services i.e.

educating the existing and potential investors about stock market as an alternative

source to investment. This involves catering to the queries of the investors about the

concept of stock market, the various options that an investor can invest his money

into, funds management of investors.

Analyzing the investors’ behaviour includes understanding the concerns a person

has towards Stock Market, his stages in life and wealth cycle, the effect of the

investments made by the peer groups, effect of the profession he/she is in, education

qualification, impiortance of tax benefits, the most preferred saving tool etc. and this

all is analyzed with the help of a schedule prepared.

Through the systematic investment plan invest a specific amount for a continuous

period, at regular intervals. By doing this, the investor get the advantage of rupee cost

averaging which means that by investing the same amount at regular intervals, the

average cost per unit remains lower than the average market price.

CHAPTER -1
INDUSTRY OVERVIEW

A BRIEF HISTORY OF STOCK EXCHANGES :-

Do you know that the world's foremost market place

“New York Stock Exchange” (NYSE), started its trading

under a tree (now known as 68 Wall Street) over 200 years

ago? Similarly, India's premier stock exchange Bombay

Stock Exchange (BSE) can also trace back its origin to as

far as 125 years when it started as a voluntary non-profit

making association.

You hear about it any time it reaches a new high or

a new low, and you also hear about it daily in statements like 'The BSE Sensitive

Index rose 5% today'. Obviously, stocks and stock markets are important. Stocks of

public limited companies are bought and sold at a stock exchange. But what really are

stock exchanges? Known also as News on the stock market appears in different media

every day. The stock market or bourse, a stock exchange is an organized market place

for securities (like stocks, bonds, options) featured by the centralization of supply and

demand for the transaction of orders by member brokers, for institutional and

individual investors. The exchange makes buying and selling easy. For example, you

don't have to actually go to a stock exchange, say, BSE - you can contact a broker,

who does business with the BSE, and he or she will buy or sell your stock on your

behalf. All stock exchanges perform similar functions with respect to the listing,

trading, and clearing of securities, differing only in their administrative machinery for

www.angeltrade.com [9]
handling these functions. Most stock exchanges are auction markets, in which prices

are determined by competitive bidding. Trading may occur on a continuous auction

basis, may involve brokers buying from and selling to dealers

in certain types of stock, or it may be conducted through specialists dealing in

a particular stock.

But where did it all start? The need for stock exchanges developed out of early

trading activities in agricultural and other commodities. During the middle Ages,

traders found it easier to use credit that required supporting documentation of drafts,

notes and bills of exchange. The history of the earliest stock exchange, the French
stock exchange, may be traced back to 12th century when transactions occurred in

commercial bills of exchange.

The first stock exchange in India, Bombay Stock Exchange was established in

1875 as 'The Native Share and Stockbrokers Association' and has evolved over the

years into its present status as the premier stock exchange in the country. It may be

noted that BSE is the oldest stock exchange in Asia, even older than the Tokyo Stock

Exchange, which was founded in 1878. The country's second stock exchange was

established in Ahmedabad in 1894, followed by the Calcutta Stock Exchange (CSE).

CSE can also trace its origin back to 19th century. From a get together under a 'Neem

Tree' way back in the 1830s, the CSE was formally established in May 1908.

India's other major stock exchange National Stock Exchange (NSE), promoted by

leading financial institutions, was established in April 1993. Over the years, several

stock exchanges have been established in the major cities of India. There are now 23

recognized stock exchanges — Mumbai (BSE, NSE and OTC), Calcutta, Delhi,

Chennai, Ahmedabad, Bangalore, Bhubaneswar, Coimbatore, Guwahati, Hyderabad,

Jaipur, Kochi, Kanpur, Ludhiana, Mangalore, Patna, Pune, Rajkot, Vadodara, Indore

and Meerut. Today, most of the global stock exchanges have become highly efficient,

www.angeltrade.com [ 10 ]
computerized organizations. Computerized networks also made it possible to connect

to each other and have fostered the growth of an open, global securities market.

Realizing there is untapped market of investors who want to be able to execute

their own trades when it suits them, brokers have taken their trading rooms to the

Internet. Known as online brokers, they allow you to buy and sell shares via Internet.

Online Trading is a service offered on the Internet for purchase and sale of shares.

In the real world, you place orders on your stockbroker either verbally (personally or

telephonically) or in a written form (fax). In Online Trading, you will access a

stockbroker's website through your internet-enabled PC and place orders through the
broker's internet-based trading engine. These orders are routed to the Stock Exchange

without manual intervention and executed thereon in a matter of a few seconds.

There are 2 types of online trading service: discount brokers and full service

online broker. Discount online brokers allow you to trade via Internet at reduced rates.

Some provide quality research, other don’t. Full service online brokerage is linked to

existing brokerages. These brokers allow their clients to place online orders with the

option of talking/ chatting to brokers if advice is needed. Brokerage rates here are
higher. Indiainfoline.com, ICICIDirect.Com, IndiaBulls.Com,

AngelBroking.com, Sharekhan.Com, HDFCSecurities.Com is some of

the online broking sites in India.

S H A R E K H A N DEPOSITORY SERVICES:

Dematerialization and trading in the demat mode is the safer and faster

alternative to the physical existence of securities. Demat as a parallel solution offers

freedom from delays, thefts, forgeries, settlement risks and paper work. This system

works through depository participants (DPs) who offer demat services and the

securities are held in the electronic form for the investor directly by Depository.

Sharekhan Depository Services offers dematerialisation services to individual and

corporate investors. We have a team of professionals and the latest technological

expertise dedicated exclusively to our demat department, apart from a national

network of franchisee, making our services quick, convenient and efficient.

At Sharekhan, our commitment is to provide a complete demat solution which

is simple, safe and secure.

DEMATERIALISATION :

www.angeltrade.com [ 24 ]
Dematerialisation is the process by which a client can get physical certificates

converted into electronic balances maintained in his account with the DP.

FEATURES:

 Holdings in only those securities that are admitted for dematerialisation by

National Securities Depository Ltd (NSDL) can be dematerialised.

 Structure of holding in the securities should match with the account structure

of the depository account. Now shares in different order of names can also be

dematted.

If the shares are in the name of X and Y, the same cannot be dematerialised

into the account of either X or Y alone. However if the shares are in the name

of X first and Y second, and the account is in the name of Y first and X

second, then these shares can be dematerialised in this account.

 Only those holdings that are registered in the name of the account holder can

be dematerialised. Physical shares which have not been transferred and are

still there with a transfer deed cannot be dematted. Only a few companies have

been given the permission to offer Transfer-cum-Demat. The list of these

companies can be viewed here.

REMATERIALISATION:

Rematerialisation is the process by which a client can get his electronic

holdings converted into physical certificates. The client has to submit the

rematerialisation request to the DP with whom he has an account along with a Remat

www.angeltrade.com [ 25 ]
request form. The physical shares will be posted by the company directly to the

clients.

TRADES :

For all sales made by clients, the shares will have to be given to the broker, so

that the Pay In can be made by the broker to the stock exchange concerned. For that

it's essential that the shares be transferred to the account of the broker well before the

deadline date. You must confirm with your broker the settlement date and settlement

number and then submit your instructions to your DP. Also it's important to give the

instructions to your DP as early as possible.

PLEDGE:

Pledge enables you to obtain loans against your dematerialised shares. So you

get liquidity without having to sell your shares. A highly simplified procedure may be

availed of for pledging of securities in the electronic mode. The pledged securities

continue to be reflected in the DP account of the clients (pledgor) but the concerned

securities are "blocked" and cannot be used for any transactions. As and when the

pledge is to be removed, based on confirmations received from both the pledgor and

the pledgee, the blocked securities will be released to "Free Balance" of the account

holder. A very big advantage of using pledges in the electronic mode is that the

securities continue to be in your account and therefore all benefits--viz Dividend,

Bonus and Rights--accrue to the holder, i.e. you and not the bank (pledgee).

CORPORATE BENEFITS:

www.angeltrade.com [ 26 ]
Corporate benefits are benefits given by a company to its investors. These may

be either monetary benefits like dividend, interest etc or non-monetary benefits like

bonus, rights etc. NSDL facilitates distribution of corporate benefits. It's important to

mention your correct MICR No and attach copy of the cheque leaf with your account

opening form. NSDL is planning to distribute all cash corporate benefits to bank

accounts directly

Primary data is a data that is collected for the first time in the processing of the

analysis.

The researchers have adopted the contact through telephone for the purpose of

collecting Primary data. The researchers discuss with Team Manager and employees

of the company to get information about competitors of SHAREKHAN.com.

SECONDARY DATA :-

Under Secondary sources, we tapped information from internal & external

sources. We made use of Internet (such as search engine

www.google.com, www.icicidirect.com, www.indiabulls.com and

miscellaneous sources (such as brochures, pamphlets, library) under

external sources.

ANALYSIS :-

To make our research project most effective in a given time period of two

months surveyed the information of the competitors. We undertook both Explorative

as well as Conclusive Research Design. The data has been collected from both

Primaries as well as Secondary sources and we also did the fieldwork for which

utmost care has been taken to keep project unbiased from personal opinion.

www.angeltrade.com [ 56 ]
LIMITATIONS OF THE PROJECT :-

 Services of competitors :- We cannot give proper comment on competitor’s

services till we use it. But I try to collect as accurate information as possible.

As we all know services are intangible and we cannot predict its quality, it is a

thing to feel not to see.

 No proper assurance of right information :- The main data sources are

websites, telephonic information and offices visit.

• The data on websites might be possible, not get updated.

• The marketing person might be possible, is not through with all

concepts to which I contacted.

• Sometimes, they try to hide information.

 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 shares primarily in

IPO’s.

 Mostly people comfortable with traditional brokers :- As people are doing

trading from their respective brokers, they are quite comfortable to trade via

phone.

 Lack 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.

www.angeltrade.com [ 57 ]
 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.

 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.

SCOPE OF THE STUDY :-

These are some of the following scope of the study :-

1. The present study can be extended to assess the present marketing condition of

stock market.

2. The study can be used to design a proper product, price, place & promotional

strategy for stock market.

3. From the present study we can know the market share of different by-products

and accordingly formulated strategy to enhance it.

4. The result of marketing success of different by-product can be interpreted to

assess the rate of employee’s satisfaction in that department (marketing).

5. This study can be applied to find out an effective distribution channel to

enhance the sale of by-product of “ANGEL BROKING”.

CONCLUSION :-

In online trading “ANGEL BROKING” have mainly competition with

icicidirect.com, HDFCsec.com, 5Paisa.com India bulls. “ANGEL BROKING”

comes at no. 2 retail broker. It has an advantage of being in this industry for more

than 8 decades. It has launched its website in 2000 and were among the first player in
the online share trading. The “ANGEL BROKING” has decided to spend its

advertisement budget through four media i.e. Television, Print, Web and Outlets. Mr.
Boman Irani was the first brand ambassador for “ANGEL BROKING” on

television media. From the above analysis we can point out some points:

1. SHAREKHAN account opening charges are little higher than other

competitors. SHAREKHAN is less flexible to cut down its account opening

charges on the other side; some of the brokers are offering free account

opening to High Net Worth customers.

2. The charges of Demat account are reasonable at 300 p.a. but India bulls is

offering pool account with no Annual Maintenance charges.

www.angeltrade.com [ 61 ]
3. SHAREKHAN provides trading in NSE, BSE and Derivatives. It also

launched online Mutual Funds & Online IPO Bidding. Arbitrage facility is not

available to customers.

4. SHAREKHAN is the only one that does not have any Demat transaction

charges either on buying or selling.

5. Unlimited toll free calls service is provided to customer in

SHAREKHAN.com.

6. SHAREKHAN accept offline payment from other banks also but

icicidirect.com, HDFCsec.com clients have compulsion to open an online

account.

7. IPO Online service is better provided in SHAREKHAN as compared to

others.

8. SHAREKHAN is only broker in which no margin needs to keep.

9. SHAREKHAN research reports come in client e-mail at free of cost around 5-

6 times in a day. But some brokers charged for it and some provide it only at

once in a day, while it is paid in Indiabulls, icicidirect.com and 5paisa.com.

10. In brokerage, 5paisa.com have an edge on others with lowest brokerage .25%

on delivery and .05% on intraday

To sum up, we can say that computerization and automation are not to be

avoided. Technology has been able to make the stock markets accessible to every

individual. It has also led to positive developments in terms of reduced costs and

fewer errors. But, as some experiences have indicated, IT cannot be applied as a

panacea for all problems. Regulation and knowledge dissemination are still important.

The use of technology should be preceded by a detailed study and assessment of all

www.angeltrade.com [ 62 ]
other alternatives. The key to successful use to technology is the appreciation of its

constraints.

RECOMMENDATION :

We suggest following measures, which SHAREKHAN could take so as to

take on heavy competition from INDIABULLS and ICICIDIRECT.COM

1. To identify regions where promotions are required. SHAREKHAN lacks

visibility in northern region where as it is a well known name in western

region. Even then, its promotional campaign focuses on western region where

as northern region is still waiting for promotional campaigns.

2. Try to reduce cost, so that benefits can be passed on to customers. Senior

managers at SHAREKHAN keep on telling that it is difficult to reduce cost,

because of services we provide. But the fact is, India being a price sensitive

market, people at times go for monetary benefits rather than for long term non-

monetary benefits.

3. If charges can’t be reduced because of costs involved, make the services

customized, so that services are provided to only those customers who are

willing to pay the price for services they are getting and let the other

customers enjoy costs benefits without getting services.

4. Concept of margin funding should be introduced, as more and more people are

asking for it.
