CHAPTER 1 INTRODUCTION
Stock markets refer to a market place where investors can buy and sell
stocks.The price at which each buying and selling transaction takes is
determined by marketforces (i.e. demand and supply for a particular stock).
Exemplify how market forces determine stock prices, take an example of ABC
Co. Ltd. which enjoys high investor confidence and there is an anticipation of an
upward movement in its stock price. More and more people would want to buy
this stock (i.e. high demand) and very few people will want to sell this stock at
current market price (i.e.less supply). Therefore, buyers will have to bid a higher
price for this stock to match the ask price from the seller which will increase the
stock price of ABC Co. Ltd. On the contrary, if there are more sellers than
buyers (i.e. high supply and low demand) for the stock of ABC Co. Ltd. in the
market, its price will fall down.
In earlier times, buyers and sellers used to assemble at stock exchanges to
make a transaction but now with the dawn of IT, most of the operations are done
electronically and the stock markets have become almost paperless. Now
investors do not have togather at the Exchanges, and can trade freely from their
home or office over the phone or through Internet.
Stock exchanges to some extent play an important role as indicators,
reflecting the performance of the country’s economic state of health. It is
exposed to a high degree of volatility; prices fluctuate within minutes and are
determined by the demand and supply of stocks at a given time. Stock brokers
are the ones who buy and sell securities on behalf of individuals and institutions
for some commission. The Securities and Exchange Board of India (SEBI) is the
authorized body, which regulates the operations of stock exchanges, banks and
other financial institutions.
Do you know that the world's foremost market place “New York Stock
Exchange” (NYSE), started its trading under a tree
(now known 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.
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, 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.
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,
HDFCSecurities.Com is some of the online broking sites in India.
Traditionally in the stock Market, the investors invest their money in shares under
the guidance of the Brokers of any stock broking company. This is convenient to
those investors who are not familiar with the computer and the use of internet. But it
requires more dealers to the share broking companies to give guidance related to
investment.There was a chance of inaccuracy of price because it is a time
consuming process. The cost of the company also increases due to more paperwork.
The investor point of view,there was a problem of privacy. The information of
investor may leak by the broker. So,to remove these limitations of traditional
broking, there was an emergence of new concept e-Broking.
1.5 E- BROKING:
It is, however desirable that you hold securities in demat formas physical
securities carry the risk of being fake, forged or stolen.Just as you have to open an
account with a bank if you want to save your money, make cheque payments etc,
Nowadays, you need to open a demat account if you want to buy or sell stocks.
So it is just like a bank account where actual money is replaced by shares. You
have to approach the DPs (remember, they are like bank branches), to open your
demat account. Let's say your portfolio of shares looks like this: 150 of Infosys, 50
of Wipro, 200 of HLL and 100 of ACC. All these will show in your demat account.
So you don't have to possess any physical certificates showing that you own these
shares. They are all held electronically in your account. As you buy and sell the
shares, they are adjusted in your account. Just like a bank passbook or statement,
the DP will provide you with periodic statements of holdings and transactions.
In India, a demat account, the abbreviation for dematerialised account, is a type of
banking account which dematerializes paper-based physical stock shares. The
dematerialised account is used to avoid holding physical shares: the shares are
bought and sold through a stock market.
From the study it was found that 36% of firms trade in cash,27% in
derivatives, and 20% in cash, derivatives and commodities.
In the cash market, 34% trade in NSE, 14% in BSE, 45% in both. Whereas
in debt market, 31% trade in NSE, 26% trades in BSE, and 43% in both.
Majority branches are located in North, i.e. 40%, 31% in West,24% in South,
and 5% in East.
In terms of sub-brokers, around 55% are located in South, 29%in West, 11%
in North, and 4% in East.
Trading, IPOs and Mutual Funds are the top three products offered by 90%
of firms offering trading, 67% IPOs, and 53%offering Mutual Fund
transaction.
In terms of various areas of growth, 84% of firms have shown their interest
in expanding their institutional clients, 66% firms intend to increase FIIs,
and 34% are interested in setting up Joint Ventures in India and abroad.
3.Market makers
Market maker is a designated specialist in the specified securities. They make both
bid and offer at the same time. A market maker has to abide by laws, rules and
regulation of the concerned stock exchange.
4.Portfolio consultants
A combination of securities such as stocks, bonds and money market instruments is
collectively called as portfolio. The portfolio consultants are the persons, firms
or companies who advice ,direct or undertake the management or administration of
securities or funds on behalf of their clients. At present there are 23 recognized
stock exchanges in India. Indian stock exchange allows a member broker to perform

different. The intention of hedgers is to hedge their fund and try to minimize their risk.

In findings, it has been found that 87% of the respondents go for cash market
along with the derivative market. But the remaining 13% would not prefer to for cash
market with the derivative market.
It is obvious that investment in Cash Market is safer than Trade in Derivative
Market. The people who trade in derivative would also go for investment in cash market
just to minimize the loss. There are many people who would like to invest only in Cash
Market because they are risk averse people. But both the markets are having their own
pros and cons. In derivative market very less cash on hand is required compare to cash
but the risk in derivative is higher compare to cash market.

Generally different people are having different kind of attitude towards different
broking firms. Some people are more focused on brokerage charged by the broking firms
while other focuses on services provided by different organization. So it is very difficult
to identify and rank the broking firms with the sample of 100 people. Still we try to find
the mindset of the people with their difference of opinion. And thus from the findings the
rank to different broking firms are as shown in the above diagram.

It is general thinking that Indian Women are generally risk averse and in opposite
to that Men are risk oriented people. Even in this survey, it has been found the same
thing. Out of 100 people 88% were male who trade in derivative market. While female
were only 12%. It has also been noticed that women are more conscious for investment in
Gold and Cash Market rather than trading in Derivative Market.
66 | P a g e
2. Age Group:
From the findings, it has been seen that 66% of the respondents were below age
group of 30 and only 1% of the respondents was above age group of 60. 24% and 9% fall
in the group of 31-45 and 46-60 respectively. It is general notice thatthe retired people
generally do not prefer to take more risk. As we know derivative is a risky financial
instrument, retired people would not like to trade in derivative. And in our finding also
we have found the same.
Out of 100 there were 18 respondents who were undergraduate, 50 were graduates
and 32 were post graduate.
67 | P a g e
4. Occupation:
While asking the question like how the respondents take decision while trading, it
has been found that 55% of them take decision on their own and 30% take advice
from the broker. So, Organization should find where they are lacking behind and
should try to improve it as soon as possible so that the value of the organization
may rise in the mind of the people.
In a survey, it has been found that there are 8% of the respondents who are having
constraint of lacking guidance from the broking firm itself. The main reason may
be lack of proper response or guidance. So, Organization should train their
employees to provide proper guidance to the clients, if required. Along with that
the organization should have a suggestion box so that those trader who do not
want to complain directly, can suggest the organization indirectly.
Male are more interested in trading in derivatives. risk compare to women but
68 | P a g e
where women are lacking in trading, angel broking should try to know it and
implement better situation for women. From the survey, it was found that women
save their whole income. And they generally would prefer to invest in gold as
they don’t have much knowledge of derivative and all.
From the findings it has been found that the organization is at the first place in the
market. But in actual market the organization does not hold the first position. In
survey, it is so, because of the respondents who were the employees and the client
of the Angel Broking ltd.
There were very less people whose purpose to trade in derivative market is
arbitrage compare to speculation and therefore organization should make aware
their clients that arbitrage is also a very good option to earn more money.
Organization should focus on the age group of below 30, as they are very
enthusiastic and are earning people. Along with them the organization should also
focus on the age group of above 45 as they may have fund but not knowledge of
this market.
As out of 100 of the respondents 18 are the undergraduate, so they might not able
to understand the derivative market fully. And therefore organization should take
care of them and advice them wherever necessary.
