block trades by comparing the block price with the equilibrium price before and after the
block trades. Second is transaction time event approach adopted by Houlthausen et.al
(1990). The study period will be from 2004 to 2015. The prices of scrips in NSE, which were
block traded and the prices of their futures contracts shall be used for analysis. Trade data
