$ro"ects are very important for the beginners to gain a practical knowledge about
organi%ations and the market. Theory till not used in practical field is of no use. &o our

EXECUTIVE SUMMA Y
Training is the first step to enter into the permanent "ob. )arket research,
market surveys are some of the pillars which helps us in future to stand with
potentiality, knowledge and smart work.
*eeping this in mind I had carried out my summer training in I+IA I+-/I+0
which is India1s favorite share trading company with the largest number of customers.
India infoline offers investors a seamless, hassle2free and paperless way to trade
shares, as it integrates the banking, trading and settlement part of the business. India
infoline is trusted by over a lakh share investors, due to its negotiable brokerage rates,consultation services, margin facilities, good software as well as many other services
like insurance mutual funds etc.It provided me a platform to deeply analy%e the capital
market as well as customer investment perception towards it.
As &ystematic, planned and disciplined work always leads to success. *eeping this in
mind the pro"ect has been divided into parts.
-irstly with the "oining of company as a trainee my induction process was started
where I got familiar with the employees working there.
&econdly, I talked to all the knowledgeable people of the organi%ation who helped me
to get an initial idea about the company and its product and services. I was than lead
by the officer who dealt with the customer to know the kind of services that the
company offers to their customers.
Thirdly, I learned about the various instruments of capital market, working of broking
industry as well as got the practical experience about it also. Then the consumers of
&ri anganagar city were selected and interviewed about the company that they used,
their views on India infoline and stock market of India, their expectation from the
company, their satisfaction regarding the special services provided by the companyand their investment preferences regarding the capital market. I got the real time
experience about the process of listing of I$1s as two I$1s i.e. Technofeb
engineering /td., 3industhan media venture /td. were released and widely promoted
by II-/ during my training period. I also learned the practical knowhow of the trading
mechanism of e4uities, commodities, mutual funds, currencies etc.

Re(earc1 on capital "arket
,apital Market#
A capital "arketis a market for securities (debt or e4uity!, where business
enterprises (companies! and governments can raise long2term funds. It is defined as a
8
-
8/11/2019 Mutualfund a Better Option
9/94
market in which money is provided for periods longer than a year5D, as the raising of
short2term funds takes place on other markets (e.g., the money market!. The capital
market includes the stock market (e4uity securities! and the bond market (debt!.
-inancial regulators, such as the E*Fs -inancial &ervices Authority (-&A! or the E.&.
&ecurities and 0xchange Commission (&0C!, oversee the capital markets in their
designated "urisdictions to ensure that investors are protected against fraud, among
other duties.
Capital markets may be classified as primary markets and secondary markets. In
primary markets, new stock or bond issues are sold to investors via a mechanism
known as underwriting. In the secondary markets, existing securities are sold and
bought among investors or traders, usually on a securities exchange, over2the2
counter, or elsewhere.
Pri"ary Market:
A market that issues new securities on an exchange. Companies, governments and
other groups obtain financing through debt or e4uity based securities. $rimary markets
are facilitated by underwriting groups, which consist of investment banks that will set a
beginning price range for a given security and then oversee its sale directly to
investors.
Also known as Gnew issue marketG (+I)!. The primary markets are where investors
can get first crack at a new security issuance. The issuing company or group receivescash proceeds from the sale, which is then used to fund operations or expand the
business. 0xchanges have varying levels of re4uirements which must be met before a
security can be sold.
nce the initial sale is complete, further trading is said to conduct on the secondary
market, which is where the bulk of exchange trading occurs each day. $rimary
markets can see increased volatility over secondary markets because it is difficult to
accurately gauge investor demand for a new security until several days of trading
have occurred.
Secondary "arket#
A market where investors purchase securities or assets from other investors, rather
than from issuing companies themselves. The national exchanges 2 such as the +ew
:ork &tock 0xchange and the +A&AH are secondary markets.
&econdary markets exist for e4uities, commodities or when funds, investment banks,
9
-
8/11/2019 Mutualfund a Better Option
10/94
or entities such as -annie )ae purchase mortgages from issuing lenders. In any
secondary market trade, the cash proceeds go to an investor rather than to the
underlying companyentity directly.
,apital Market In(tru"ent(#
Capital market instruments are responsible for generating funds forcompanies,
corporations, and sometimes national governmentsthese are used by the investors to
make a profit out of their respective markets. There are a number of capital market
instruments used for market trade, including
&tocks
04uitie
commodities
@ondsebentures
Treasury2bills
-oreign
0xchange-ixed deposits
Capital market is also known as securities market because long term funds are raised
through trade on debt and e4uity securities. These activities may be conducted by
both companies and governments. This market is divided into primary capital market
and secondary capital market. The primary market is designed for the new issues and
the secondary market is meant for the trade of existing issues. &tocks and bonds are
the two basic capital market instruments used in both the primary and secondary
markets. There are three different markets in which stocks are used as the capital
market instrumentJ the physical, virtual, and auction markets.

@onds, however, are traded in a separate bond market. This market is also known asa debt, credit, or fixed income market. Trade in debt securities are done in this market.
There are also the T2bills and ebentures which are used as capital market
instruments by the investors.
These instruments are more secured than the others, but they also provide less return
than the other capital market instruments. #hile all capital market instruments are
designed to provide a return on investment, the risk factors are different for each and
the selection of the instrument depends on the choice of the investor. The risk
tolerance factor and the expected returns from the investment play a decisive role in
the selection by an investor of a capital market instrument.
Capital market instruments should be selected only after doing proper research inorder to increase one.
Brie) a!out (tock "arket
The &ecurities Contracts (9egulation! Act, 578;, has defined &tock 0xchange as an
Gassociation, organi%ation or body of individuals, whether incorporated or not,
established for the purpose of assisting, regulating and controlling business of buying,
selling and dealing in &ecuritiesG. &tock exchange as an organi%ed security marketprovides marketability and price continuity for shares and helps in a fair evaluation of
securities in terms of their intrinsic worth. Thus it helps orderly flow and distribution of
savings between different types of investments. This institution performs an important
part in the economic life of a country, acting as a free market for securities where
prices are determined by the forces of supply and demand. Apart from the above
basic function it also assists in mobili%ing funds for the overnment and the Industry
11
-
8/11/2019 Mutualfund a Better Option

and to supply a channel for the investment of savings in the performance of its
functions.
The &tock 0xchanges in India as elsewhere have a vital role to play in the
development of the country in general and industrial growth of companies in the
private sector in particular and helps the overnment to raise internal resources for
the implementation of various development programmes in the public sector. As a
segment of the capital market it performs an important function in mobili%ing and
channeli%ing resources which remain otherwise scattered. Thus the &tock 0xchanges
tap the new resources and stimulate a broad based investment in the capital structure
of industries.
A well developed and healthy stock exchange can be and should be an important
institution in building up a property base along with a socialist in India with broader
distribution of wealth and income. Thus &tock 0xchange is a vital organ in a modern
society. #ithout a stock exchange a modern democratic economy cannot exist. The
system of "oint stock companies financed through the public investment as emerged
has put the vast means of finances almost to entrepreneursF needs.
-inance from external sources mainly from the investing public can become possible
only when an institute like &tock 0xchange provides opportunities for the conversion
of scattered savings into profitable investments with the promises of a reasonableyield and minimum element of risk. &uch a mechanism as provided by &tock
0xchanges is not merely a source of capital but also a conduit which channeli%es the
savings into investment along with a free movement of capital.
#ith the probable exception of a totalitarian state no overnment will be able to
mobili%e resources from the public if the money market in the form of stock exchange
does not exist. The &tock 0xchange benefits the entire community in a variety of way.
It enables the producers to raise capital which directly and indirectly gives gainful
employment to millions of people on the one hand and helps consumers to getL the
variety of goods needed by them on the other. It provides opportunities to savers tostore the value either as temporary abode of purchasing power or as a permanent
abode of purchasing power in the form of financial assets. It also helps the segments
of the savers who put their savings in commercial firms and non2banking financial
intermediaries because these institutions avail themselves of the services of &tock
0xchange to invest the money thus collected.

The &tock 0xchange comes close enough to a perfectly competitive market allowing
the forces of demand and supply a reasonable degree of freedom to operate as
compared to other markets specially the commodity markets. This segment of the
factor market can be considered as a perfect or a nearly perfect market. Apart from
providing a mechanism for transacting business in stock and shares it generates
genuine potential for a new entrepreneur to take up initiative in the private sector
enterprises and allows the expansion of investing community by offering gainful
development of their otherwise sluggish or shy capital. The &tock 0xchange must
assume the responsibility of protecting the rights of investors specially the small
investors in the Moint &tock Companies.

Indian &tock )arkets are one of the oldest in Asia. Its history dates back to nearly >??
years ago. The earliest records of security dealings in India are meagre and obscure.

Secondary Market
&econdary market is the place for sale and purchase of existing securities. It enables
an investor to ad"ust his holdings of securities in response to changes in his
assessment about risk and return. It enables him to sell securities for cash to meet his
li4uidity needs. It essentially comprises of the stock exchanges which provide platform
for trading of securities and a host of intermediaries who assist in trading of securities
and clearing and settlement of trades. The securities are traded, cleared and settled
as per prescribed regulatory framework under the supervision of the exchanges and
oversight of &0@I.
Trading Mec1ani("
0arlier trading on stock exchanges in India used to take place through open outcry
without use of information technology for immediate matching or recording of trades.
This was time consuming and inefficient. This imposed limits on trading volumes and
efficiency. In order to provide efficiency, li4uidity and transparency +ational &tock
0xchange introduced a nation wide on line fully automated screen based trading
system where a member can punch in to the computer 4uantities of securities and the
prices at which he likes to transact and the transaction is executed as soon as it findsa matching sale or buy order from a counter party. &creen based trading electronically
matches orders on a pricetime priority and hence cuts down on time, cost and risk of
error, as well as on fraud resulting in improved operational efficiency. It enables
market participants, irrespective of their geographical locations to trade with one
another and it provides e4ual access to everybody.

The isclosure and Investor $rotection (I$! guidelines prescribe a substantial
body of re4uirements for issuersintermediaries, the broad intention being to ensure
that all concerned observe high standards of integrity and fair dealing, comply with
all the re4uirements with due skill, diligence and care, and disclose the truth, whole
truth and nothing but truth. The guidelines aim to secure fuller disclosure of relevant
information about the issuer and the nature of the securities to be issued so that
investors can take informed decisions. -or example, issuers are re4uired to
disclose any material Orisk factors1 and give "ustification for pricing in their
prospectus. An unlisted company can access the market up to 8 times its pre2issue
net worth only if it has track record of distributable profits and net worth of 9s. 5
crore in < out of last five years. A listed company can access up to 8 times of its
pre2issue net worth. In case a company does not have track record or wishes to
rise beyond 8 times of its pre2issue net worth, it can access the market only through
book building with minimum offer of ;?P to 4ualified institutional buyers.
Infrastructure companies are exempt from the re4uirement of eligibility norms if
their pro"ect has been appraised by a public financial institution and not less than
8P of the pro"ect cost is financed by any of the institutions, "ointly or severally, byway of loan andor subscription to e4uity. The debt instruments of maturities more
than 56 months re4uire credit rating. If the issue si%e exceeds 9s. 5?? crore, two
ratings from different agencies are re4uired. Thus the 4uality of the issue is
demonstrated by track recordappraisal by approved financial institutionscredit

certificate stating that he has examined the prospectus, he finds it in order and that
it brings out all the facts and does not contain anything wrong or misleading. 3e
also takes care of allotment, refund and dispatch of certificates. The admission to adepository for demateriali%ation of securities is a prere4uisite for making a public or

subscribing to securities in either physical form or demateriali%ed form. All new

,orporate Securitie(#
The stock exchanges are the exclusive centres for trading of securities. Though the
area of operation"urisdiction of an exchange is specified at the time of its
recognition, they have been allowed recently to set up trading terminals anywhere in
the country. The three newly set up exchanges (TC0I, +&0 and IC&0! were
permitted since their inception to have nation wide trading. The trading platforms of a
few exchanges are now accessible from many locations. -urther, with extensive use
of information technology, the trading platforms of a few exchanges are also
accessible from anywhere through the Internet and mobile devices. This made a
huge difference in a geographically vast country like India.
EGc1ange Manage"ent#
)ost of the stock exchanges in the country are organi%ed as 'mutuals which was
considered beneficial in terms of tax benefits and matters of compliance. The trading
members, who provide brokering services, also own, control and manage the
exchanges. This is not an effective model for self2regulatory organi%ations as the
regulatory and public interest of the exchange conflicts with private interests. 0fforts
are on to demutualise the exchanges whereby ownership, management and trading
membership would be segregated from one another. Two exchanges vi%. TC0I and+&0 are demutualised from inception, where ownership, management and trading
are in the hands of three different sets of people. This model eliminates conflict of
interest and helps the exchange to pursue market efficiency and investor interest
aggressively.
Me"!er(1ip:
The trading platform of an exchange is accessible only to brokers. The broker enters
into trades in exchanges either on his own account or on behalf of clients. +o stock
broker or sub2broker is allowed to buy, sell or deal in securities, unless he or sheholds a certificate of registration granted by &0@I. A brokersub2broker complies with
the code of conduct prescribed by &0@I. ver time, a number of brokers 2 proprietor
firms and partnership firms Q have converted themselves into corporate. The
standards for admission of members stress on factors, such as corporate structure,
capital ade4uacy, track record, education, experience, etc. and reflect a conscious
endeavor to ensure 4uality broking services.

A company seeking listing satisfies the exchange that at least 5?P of the securities,sub"ect to a minimum of >? lakh securities, were offered to public for subscription,
and the si%e of the net offer to the public (i.e. the offer price multiplied by the number
of securities offered to the public, excluding reservations, firm allotment and
promoters1 contribution! was not less than 9s. 5?? crore, and the issue is made only
through book building method with allocation of ;?P of the issue si%e to the 4ualified
institutional buyers. In the alternative, it is re4uired to offer at least >8P of the
securities to public. The company is also re4uired to maintain the minimum level of
non2promoter holding on a continuous basis. In order to provide an opportunity to
investors to investtrade in the securities of local companies, it is mandatory for the
companies, wishing to list their securities, to list on the regional stock exchange
nearest to their registered office. If they so wish, they can seek listing on other
exchanges as well. )onopoly of the exchanges within their allocated area, regional
aspirations of the people and mandatory listing on the regional stock exchange
resulted in multiplicity of exchanges. The basic norms for listing of securities on the
stock exchanges are uniform for all the exchanges. These norms are specified in the
listing agreement entered into between the company and the concerned exchange.
The listing agreement prescribes a number of re4uirements to be continuously
complied with by the issuers for continued listing and such compliance is monitored
by the exchanges. It also stipulates the disclosures to be made by the companiesand the corporate governance practices to be followed by them. &0@I has been
issuing guidelinescirculars prescribing certain norms to be included in the listing
agreement and to be complied with by the companies. A listed security is available
for trading on the exchange. The stock exchanges levy listing fees 2 initial fees and
annual fees 2 from the listed companies. It is a ma"or source of income for many
exchanges. A security listed on other exchanges is also permitted for trading. A
listedcompany can voluntary delist its securities from non2regional stock exchanges
after providing an exit opportunity to holders of securities in the region where the
concerned exchange is located. An exchange can, however, delist the securities
compulsorily following a very stringent procedure.
Trading Mec1ani("#
The exchanges provide an on2line fully2automated screen based trading system
(&@T&! where a member can punch into the computer 4uantities of securities and
the prices at which he likes to transact and the transaction is executed as soon as it

finds a matching order from a counter party. &@T& electronically matches orders on
a strict pricetime priority and hence cuts down on time, cost and risk of error, as well
as on fraud resulting in improved operational efficiency. It allows faster incorporation
of price sensitive information into prevailing prices, thus increasing the informational
efficiency of markets. It enables market participants to see the full market on real2
time, making the market transparent. It allows a large number of participants,
irrespective of their geographical locations, to trade with one another simultaneously,
improving the depth and li4uidity of the market. It provides full anonymity by
accepting orders, big or small, from members without revealing their identity, thus
providing e4ual access to everybody. It also provides a perfect audit trail, which
helps to resolve disputes by logging in the trade execution process in entirety.
Trading Rule(#
9egulations have been framed to prevent insider trading as well as unfair trade
practices. The ac4uisitions and takeovers are permitted in a well2defined and orderly
manner. The companies are permitted to buy back their securities to improve li4uidity
and enhance the shareholders1 wealth
Price Band(:
&tock market volatility is generally a cause of concern for both policy makers as well
as investors. To curb excessive volatility, &0@I has prescribed a system of price
bands. The price bands or circuit breakers bring about a coordinated trading halt in
all e4uity and e4uity derivatives markets nation2wide. An index2based market2wide
circuit breaker system at three stages of the index movement either way at 5?P,
58P and >?P has been prescribed. The movement of either &B$ C+ +ifty or
&ensex, whichever is breached earlier, triggers the breakers. As an additional
measure of safety, individual scrip2wise price bands of >?P either way have been
imposed for all securities except those available for stock options.

was N,;?8,866. All actively traded scrips are held, traded and settled in demat form.emat settlement accounts for over 77P of turnover settled by delivery. This has
almost eliminated the bad deliveries and associated problems To prevent physical
certificates from sneaking into circulation, it has been mandatory for all new I$1s to
be compulsorily traded in demateriali%ed form. The admission to a depository for
demateriali%ation of securities has been made a prere4uisite for making a public or

companies making I$ of any security for 9s. 5? crore or more to do the same only

the leading stock exchange in India, witnessed the first ma"or scam masterminded by

to &0@I, the scam would not have happened. As a result, the overnment of India
(oI! brought in a separate legislation by the name of F&0@I Act 577>F and conferred
statutory powers to it.
&ince then, &0@I had introduced several stock market reforms. These reforms
significantly transformed the face of Indian stock markets. &0@I introduced on2line

agree that &0@I has handled the challenges exceptionally well.G
In spite of &0@IFs capital market reforms and increasing regulatory powers over the

ten years after the )ehta scam, several scams came to light, casting doubt on the
efficiency of &0@I as a regulatory body. 3owever, a few analysts felt there was a need
to confer more powers to &0@I to stop these scams. ne analyst commented, GItFs

Bu(ine(("en#$They are more likely to take risks in investing because they have previous
experience of taking risks in their previous wealth creation. These individuals have a
high2risk tolerance and less of a need for security. They also need to feel in control of
their investments, often to the extent of becoming highly involved with the running of
their investments, researching or becoming overly involved with technicalities. The
need for control is related to the fact that they have a strong belief in themselves and
their own abilities. nce they feel they are losing control of an investment situation,
their risk tolerance reduces. @y being actively involved and in control, these investors$ee%they are reducing risk. 3owever such involvement may actually be detrimental
as it is likely to be a source of irritation to their investment advisor who cannot get on
with the business of running their clients affairs due to constant 4uestioning and
harassment. The classes of occupation that are likely to be active investors includeJ
small business owners who have developed their own businesses rather than
inherited, medical surgeons, independent professionals, such as lawyers or
accountants, who work for themselves rather than a large firm, entrepreneurs, and
self2employed consultants.

Active investors are more likely to get personally involved with the running of their
financial affairs, and may believe they know more than their advisor does. They areless likely to delegate the maintenance of those parts of their investment portfolio in
which they believe they have experience or have had personal success. 3owever,
these individuals are more likely to be contrarian in their stock picking habits and
have less need to be completely diversified. Age tends to soften their need to be
constantly in control, so that older clients may be more malleable and open to their
advisors suggestions.

To these investors security is more important than risk In addition, certain classes ofoccupation are more likely to contain passive investors. -or exampleJ2 &tateCentre
govt. employees, non2surgical doctors, corporate executives, lawyers and
accountants who work in companies. 9easons for this are that these individuals are
less likely to have high financial resources at an early stage in their careers, having
had to delay earning good salaries in order to study or having to repay student loans.
nce earning a decent wage, they are then more careful with their money, having a
greater need for security. Anyone, therefore, with reduced financial recourses is likely
to be more risk conscious and, hence, a passive investor. -or these individuals itFs
important to hang on to their money.
$assive investors make good clients because they tend to trust their financial advisor
and are more likely to delegate the running of their financial affairs. And because
they are risk averse, they tend to like diversified portfolios of investments in 4uality
companies or investment products. 3owever, they can believe that an investment is
more risky than it is, which may keep them out of potentially lucrative opportunities.
$assive investors are also more likely to need the approval of others and are unlikely
to take a first step into unknown investment territory by being a contrarian.
Conse4uently, they are more likely to follow the investment herd when it comes to
stock market investment and stick to following the trend.
Retired per(on#$
