PREFACE
The microstructure of the stock market in which brokers work is highly Dynamic and
volatile. Many stocks are available to be bought and sold, each exhibiting its own patterns
and characteristics that are highly unpredictable. With so many options and
considerations that need to be taken into account, it is an extremely difficult task for a
broker to investigate aspects of the stock market and consistently provide effective
Advice to their clients.
Thus, brokers perform their day-to-day tasks with the aid of a broker system. Such a
system should provide tools for interacting with Exchanges and performing analysis. As a
consequence, these broker Systems are quite large and complicated by themselves. This
research aims to analysis Stock broker on the basis of their Services, products, growth,
and their competitiveness. Because Stockbrokers are one of the main participants in stock
exchanges Worldwide, they often act as an agent for their clients, making trades on their
behalf. They also act as advisors, providing suggestions to their Clients on what stocks to
buy and sell.

NATIONAL STOCK EXCHANGES:
The NSE was incorporated is now 1992 with an equity capital of Rs 25 crores. The
international securities consultancy (ISC) of Hong Kong has helped in setting up NSE.
ISE has prepared the details business plans and installation of hardware and software
system. The promotion for NSE were financial institutions, insurances companies, banks
and SEBI capital markets Ltd, infrastructure leasing and financial services Ltd and stock
holding corporation Ltd.
It has been set up to strengthen the move towards professionalization of the capital
market as well as provide nation wide securities trading facilities to investors. NSE is not
an exchange in the traditional sense where broker own and manage the exchanges.

the exchanges is envisaged. NSE is a national market for shares PSU bonds, debentures
and government securities since infrastructure and trading facilities are provided.
Stock Exchange
What is the role of a Stock Exchange in buying and selling shares?
The stock exchanges in India, under the overall supervision of the regulatory
authority, the Securities and Exchange Board of India (SEBI), provide a trading
platform, where buyers and sellers can meet to transact in securities. The
trading platform provided by NSE is an electronic one and there is no need for
buyers and sellers to meet at a physical location to trade. They can trade
through the computerized trading screens available with the NSE trading
members or the internet based trading facility provided by the trading members
of NSE.
What is Demutualisation of stock exchanges?
Demutualisation refers to the legal structure of an exchange whereby the
ownership, the management and the trading rights at the exchange are
segregated from one another.
How is a demutualised exchange different from a mutual exchange?
In a mutual exchange, the three functions of ownership, management and
trading are concentrated into a single Group. Here, the broker members of the
exchange are both the owners and the traders on the exchange and they
further manage the exchange as well. This at times can lead to conflicts of
interest in decision making. A demutualised exchange, on the other hand, has
all these three functions clearly segregated, i.e. the ownership, management
and trading are in separate hands.

A Good Till cancelled (GTC) order remains in the system until the trading members
cancels it. However, the system cancels this order if it is not trade within a number of
days parameterized by the Exchanges. A Good Till Days/Date (GTD) order allows the
user to specify the number of days/date till which the order should stay in the system if

Normally, the order quantity is disclosed in full to the market. An order with a disclosed
quantity (DQ) condition/attribute allows the trading members to disclose only a part of
the order quantity to the market. For example, an order of 1000 with a disclosed quantity
condition of 200 will mean that 200 is displaced to the market at a time. After this traded,
another 200 is automatically released soon till the full order is executed. DQ (Disclosed
Quantity) should not be less that 10% of the order quantity and at the same time should
not be greater than or equal to the order quantity.
A stop loss order allows the client to place an order which gets activated only when the
market price of the relevant securities reached or crosses a threshold price specified by
the investors in the form of ‘stock loss trigger price’. When a stop loss trigger price
(SLTP) is specified in a limit order, the order becomes one which is conditional on the
market price of the stock crossing the specified SLTP. The order remains passive (i.e. not
eligible for execution) till the condition is satisfied. Once the last traded price of the stock
reached or surpasses the SLTP, the order becomes activated and then on behaves like a
normal limit order. It is used as a tool to limit the maximum loss on a position.

Issue of Shares
Why do companies need to issue shares to the public?
Most companies are usually started privately by their promoter(s). However, the
promoters' capital and the borrowings from banks and financial institutions may
not be sufficient for setting up or running the business over a long term. So
companies invite the public to contribute towards the equity and issue shares to
individual investors. The way to invite share capital from the public is through a
'Public Issue'. Simply stated, a public issue is an offer to the public to subscribe
To the share capital of a company. Once this is done, the company allots shares
to the applicants as per the prescribed rules and regulations laid down by SEBI.
What are the different kinds of issues?
Primarily, issues can be classified as a Public, Rights or Preferential issues
(also known as private placements). While public and rights issues involve a
detailed procedure, private placements or preferential issues are relatively
simpler. The classification of issues is illustrated below:
Initial Public Offering (IPO) is when an unlisted company makes either a fresh
issue of securities or an offer for sale of its existing securities or both for the first
time to the public. This paves way for listing and trading of the issuer's
securities.
A follow on public offering (Further Issue) is when an already listed
company makes either a fresh issue of securities to the public or an offer for
sale to the public, through an offer document.
Rights Issue is when a listed company which proposes to issue fresh
securities to its existing shareholders as on a record date. The rights are
normally offered in a particular ratio to the number of securities held prior to the
issue. This route is best suited for companies who would like to raise capital
without diluting stake of its existing shareholders.
31
A Preferential issue is an issue of shares or of convertible securities by listed
companies to a select group of persons under Section 81 of the Companies
Act, 1956 which is neither a rights issue nor a public issue. This is a faster way
for a company to raise equity capital. The issuer company has to comply with
the Companies Act and the requirements contained in
the Chapter pertaining to preferential allotment in SEBI guidelines which interalia
include pricing, disclosures in notice etc.
Classification of Issues
What is meant by Issue price?
The price at which a company's shares are offered initially in the primary
market is called as the Issue price. When they begin to be traded, the
market price may be above or below the issue price.
What is meant by Market Capitalisation?
The market value of a quoted company, which is calculated by multiplying
its current share price (market price) by the number of shares in issue is
called as market capitalization. E.g. Company A has 120 million shares in
issue. The current market price is Rs. 100. The market capitalisation of
company A is Rs. 12000 million.
The stock market is one of the most important sources for companies to raise money.
This allows businesses to be publically traded or raised additionally capital for expansion
by selling share of ownership of the company in a public market.
The liquidity that an exchange provides affords investors the ability to quickly and easily
sell securities. This is an attractive feature of investing in stocks, compared to other less
liquid investment such as real estates.
History has shown that the price of shares and other assets is an important part of the
dynamic of economies activity, and can influence or be an indicator of social mood.
An economy where the stock market is on the rise is considered to be an up and coming
economy.
In fact, the stock market is often considered the primary indicators of a country’s
economics strength and development. Rising share prices, for instance, tend to be
associated with increased business investment and vice versa.
Share prices also affect the wealth of household and their consumption.
Therefore, central banks tend to keep an eye on the control and behavior of the stock
market and, in general, on the smooth operation of financial system functions. Financial
stability is the raison d’être of central banks.
34
Exchanges also act as the clearinghouses for each transaction, meeting that they collect
and deliver the shares, and guarantee payment to the seller of a securities. This eliminates
the risk to an individual buyers or seller that the counterparty could default on the
transaction.
The smooth functioning of all these activities facilities economies growth in that lower
costs enterprise risks promote the production of goods and services as well as
employment.
In this way the financial system contribution to increased prosperity. An important aspect
of modern markets, however, including the stock markets, is absolute discretion.
For example, in the USA stock we see more unrestrained acceptance of any firm than in
similar markets. Such as, Chinese firms with no significant value to American society to
just name one segment.
This profit USA banker on Wall Street, as they reap large commissions from the
placement, and the Chinese company which yields funds to invest in china.
Yet accrues no intrinsic value to the long-term stability of the American economy, rather
just short-term profits to American business man and the Chinese; although, when foreign
company has a presence in the new market, there can be benefits to the market’s citizens.
Conversely, there are very few large foreign corporation listed on the Toronto Stock
exchange TSX, Canada’s largest stock exchange. This discretion has insulated Canada to
some degree to worldwide financial condition.
In order for the stock markets to truly facilitate economy’s growth via lower costs and
better employment, great attention must be given to the foreign participants being
allowed in. Relation of the stock market to the modern financial system.
The financial system in most western countries has undergone a remarkable
transformation. One features of this development is disintermediation. A portion of the
funds involved in saving and financing bank lending and deposit operation.
35
The general public’s heightened interest in investing in the stock market, either directly or
through mutual funds, has been an important component of this process. Statistics show
that in recent decades share have made up an increasingly large proportion of household’s
financial assets in many countries.
In the 1970’s, in Sweden, deposit account and other very liquid assets with little risk
made up almost 60 percent of households’ financial wealth, compared to less than 20
percent in the 2000s.
The major part of this adjustment in financial portfolio has directly to shares but a good
deal now take the form of various kinds of institutional investment for groups of
individuals, e.g., pension funds, mutual funds, hedge funds, insurance investment of
premiums, etc.
The trend towards form of saving with a higher risk has been accentuated by new rules
for most funds and insurance, permitting a higher proportion of shares to bonds.
Riskier long-term saving required that an individual possess the ability to manage the
associated increased risks. Stock prices fluctuated widely, in marked contrast to the
stability of (government insured) bank deposits or bonds.
This something that could affect not only the individual investors or households, but also
the economy on a large scale. The following deals with some of the risks of the financial
sectors in general and the stock market in particular.
This is certainly more important now that so many newcomers have entered the stock
market, or have acquired other ‘risky’ investment (such as ‘investment’ property, i.e., real
estate and collectables.)
With each passing year, the noise level in the stock market rises. Television
commentators, financial writers, analysis, and market strategies are all over taking each
other to get investors ‘attention’.
At the same time, individual investors, immersed in chat rooms and message boards, are
exchanging questionable and often misleading tips.
Yet, despite all this available information, investors find it increasingly difficult to profit.
Stock prices skyrocket with little reasons, then plummet just as quickly.
And people who have turned to investing for their children’s education and their own
retirement become frightened. Sometimes there appears to be no rhyme or reason to the
market, only folly.
This is a quote from the prefaces to a published biography about the long-terms value
oriented stock investors warren Buffett.
37
From experiences we know that investors may ‘temporarily’ move financial prices away
from their long terms aggregate price ‘trend’ (positive or up trends are referred to as bull
markets: negative or down trends are referred to as bear markets.)
Over-reaction may occur so that excessive optimism (euphoria) may drive prices unduly
high or excessive pessimism may drive unduly low. New theoretical an empirical
arguments have since been put forward against the notion that financial markets are
‘generally’ efficient (i.e., in the sense that prices in the aggregate tends to follow a
Gaussian distribution.)
(But this largely theoretic academic viewpoint- knows as ‘hard’ EMH- also predicts that
little or no trading should take place, contrary to fact, since prices are already at or near
equilibrium, having priced in all public knowledge.) The ‘hard’ efficient-market
hypothesis is sorely tested by such events as the stock market crash in 1987, when the
Dow Jones index plummeted 22.6 percent—the largest-ever one-day fall in the United
States.
This events demonstrated that share prices can fall dramatically even though, to this day,
it is impossible to fix a generally agreed upon definite cause: a thorough search failed to
detect any ‘reasonable’ development that might have accounted for the crash. (But note
that such events are predicted to occur strictly by chance, although very rarely.)
It seems also to be the case more generally that many price movements (beyond that
which are predicted to occur ‘randomly’) are not occasioned by new information: a study
of the fifty largest one-day share prices movements in the United States in the post-war
period seems to confirm this.
However, a ‘soft’ EMH has emerged which does not required that prices remain at or near
equilibrium, but only that market participants not be able to systematically profits from
any momentary market ‘inefficiencies’.
38
Various explanation for such large and apparently non-random prices movement have
been promulgated. For instance, some research has shown that change in estimated risks,
and the use of certain strategies, such as stop-loss limit and value at Risk limits,
theoretically could cause financial markets to overcorrect.
But the best explanation seems to be that the distribution of stock market prices is non-
Gaussian (in which case EMH, in any of its current forms, would not be strictly
applicable.)
Other research has shown that psychological factors may result in exaggerated (statically
anomalous) stock prices movement (contrary to EMH which assumes such behaviors’
cancel out’).
In the present context this means that a succession of good new items about a company
may lead investors to overreact positively (unjustifiably driving the prices up). A period
of good returns also boosts the investor’s self-confidence, reducing his (psychological)
risk threshold.
An example with which one may be familiar is the reluctance to enter a restaurant that is
empty; people generally prefer to have their opinion validated by those of other in the
group.
In one paper the authors draw an analogy with gambling. In normal times the market
behaves like a game of roulette; the probabilities are known and largely independent of
the investment decision of the different players.
39
In times of market stress, however, the game becomes more like poker (herding behavior
takes over). The players now must give heavy weight to the psychology of other investors
and how they are likely to react psychology.
The stock market, as any other business, is quite unforgiving of amateurs. Inexperienced
investors rarely get the assistance and support they need.
In the period running up to 1987 crash, less than 1 percent of the analysis
recommendation had been to sell (and even during the 2000-2002 bear market, the
average did not above 5%).
In the run up to 2000, the media amplified the general euphoria, with reports of rapidly
rising share prices and the notion that large sums of money could be quickly earned in the
so called In the run up to 2000, the media amplified the general euphoria, with reports of
rapidly rising share prices and the notion that large sums of money could be quickly
earned in the so called new economy stock market.
(And later amplified the glom which descended during the 2000-2002 bear market, so
that by summer of 2002, prediction of a DOW average below 5000 were quite common).
Irrational behavior:
Sometimes the market seems to react irrationally to economic or financial news, even if
that news is likely to have no real effect on the technical value of securities itself.
But this may be more apparent than real, since often such has been anticipated, and a
counter reaction may occurs if the news is better (or worse) than expected.
Therefore, the stock market may be swayed in either by press releases, rumors euphoria
and mass panic; but generally only briefly, as more experienced investors (especially the
hedge funds quickly rally to take advantage of even the slightest, momentary hysteria.
Over the short-term, stock and other securities can be battered or buoyed by any number
of fast market-changing events, making the stock market behavior difficult to predict.
Emotion can drive prices up and down, people are generally not as rational as they think,
and the reasons for buying and selling are generally obscure.
40
Behaviorists argue that investors often behave ‘irrationally’ when making investment
decision thereby incorrectly pricing securities. This causes market inefficiencies, which,
in turn, are opportunities, to make money.
However, the whole notion of EMH is that these non-rational reactions to information
cancel out, leaving the prices of stock determined. The Dow Jones industrial Average
biggest gain in one day was 936.42 points or 11 percent, this occurred on October 12,
2008.

Rates, from irrational exuberance, 2nd. In the prefaces to this edition, Shiller warns, “The
stock market has not come down to historical levels: the prices-earnings ratio as I defined
it in his book is still, at this writing [2005], in this mid-20s, far higher than the historical
average…..people still place too much confidence in the market and have too strong a
belief that paying attention to the gyration in their investment will someday make them
rich, and so they do not make conservative preparation for possible bad outcomes.”

Long-term investors would be well advised, individually, to lower their exposer to the
stock market when it is high, as it has been recently, and get into the market when it is
low.”

There have been a number of famous stock market crashes like the Wall Street crashes of
1929, the stock market crash of 1973-4, the Black Monday of 1987, the Dot-com bubble
of 2000, and the stock market crashes 2008.
One of the most famous stock market crashes started October 24,1929 on Black
Thursday. The Dow Jones industrial lost 50% during this stock market crash. It was the
beginning of the Great depression.
Another famous crash took place on October 19, 1987 --- Black Monday. On Black
Monday itself, the Dow Jones fell by 22.6% after completing a 5 year continuous roses in
share prices. This event not only shook the USA, but quickly spread across the world.
Thus, by the end of October, stock exchanges in Australia lost 41.8%, in Canada lost
22.5%,, in Hong Kong lost 45.8%, and in Great Britain lost 26.4%. The names, “Black
Monday” and “Black Tuesday” are also used for October 28-29, 1929.
This followed terrible Thursday –the starting day of the stock market crash in 1929. The
crash in 1987 raised some puzzles—main news and events did not predict the catastrophe
and visible reasons for the collapse were not identified.
This event raised question about many important assumptions of modern economics,
namely, the theory of rational human conduct, the theory of market equilibrium and the
hypothesis of market efficiency.
For some time after the crash, trading in stock exchanges worldwide was halted, since the
exchanges computers did not perform well owing to enormous quantity of trades being
received at one time.
This halt in trading allowed the Federal Reserve System and central banks of other
countries to take measures to control the spreading of worldwide financial crisis.
In the United State the SEC introduction several new measures of control into the stock
market in an attempt to prevent a re-occurrence of the events of Black Monday.
Computer systems were upgrades in the stock exchanges to handle larger trading volumes
in a more accurate and controlled manner. The SEC modified the margin requirement in
an attempt to lower the volatility of common stocks, stock option and the futures markets.
The New York Stock Exchanges and the Chicago Mercantile Exchange introduction the
concept of a circuit breaker. The circuit breaker halts trading if the Dow declines a
prescribed number of points for a prescribed amount of time.
·82 New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) circuit breakers.

·83 The movement of the prices in a market or sections of a market are captured in
price indices called stock market indices, of which there are many, e.g., S&P, the
FTSE and the Euro next indices.
·84 Such indices are usually market capitalization weighted, with the weight
reflecting the contribution of the stock of the index are reviewed frequently to
include/exclude stocks in order to reflects to reflects the changing business
environment.
Leveraged strategies
·85 Stock that a traders does not actually own may be traded suing short selling;
margin buying may be used to purchase stock with borrowed funds; or,
derivatives may be used to control large blocks of stock for a much smaller of
amount of money than would be required by outright purchases or sale.
Short selling
·86 In short selling, the traders borrow stock (usually from his brokerage which holds
it’s client’s shares or its own share on account to lend to short sellers) then sells it
on the market, hoping for the price to all.
·87 The trader eventually buys back the stock, making money if the price fell in the
meantime or losing money if it rose; exiting a short position by buying back the
stock is called “covering a short position”.
·88 This strategy may also be used by unscrupulous traders to artificially lower the
price of a stock. Hence most markets either prevent short selling or place
restriction on when and how a short sale can occur.
·89 The practice of naked shorting is illegal in most (but not all) stock markets.\
43
Margin buying:
·90 In margin buying, trader borrows money (at interest)to buy a stock and hopes for
it to rise. Most industrialized countries have regulation that requires that if the
borrowing is based on collateral from other stock the trader owns outright, it can
be a maximum of a certain percentage of those other stocks’ value.
·91 In the United State, the margin requirements have been 50% for many years (that
is, if you want to make a $100 investment, you need to put up$500, and there is
often a maintenance margin below the $500).
·92 A margin call is made if the total value of the investor’s account cannot support
the loss of the trade.
·93 (Upon a decline in the value of the margined securities additional funds may be
requires to maintain the account’s equity, and with or wit out the margined
securities or any others within the account may be sold by the brokers to protect
its loan position. This investors is responsible for any shortfall following such
forced sale).
·94 Regulation of margin requirement (by the Federal Reserve) was implemented
after the crash of 1929. Before that, speculators typically only needed to put up a
little as 10% (or even less) of the total investment represented by the stocks
purchased.
·95 Other rules may include the prohibition of free-riding: putting in an order to buy
stocks without paying initially (there is normally a three-day grace period for
delivery of the stock.)
·96 But then selling them (before the three-days are up) and using part of the proceeds
to make the original payment (assuming that the value of the stocks has not
declined in the interim).
44
New issuance:
·97 Global issuance of equity and equity-related instrument totaled $505 billion in
2004, a 29.8% increase over the $389 billion raised in 2003. Initial public offer
(IPOs) by US issuers increased 221% with 233offering that raised $45 billion, and
IPOs in Europe, Middle East and Africa (EMEA) increased by 333% from $9
billion to $39 billion.
Investment strategies:
·98 One of the many thing people always want to know about the stock market is,
“How do I know money investing?” There are many different approaches; two
basic methods are classified as either fundamental analysis or technical analysis.
·99 Fundamental analysis refers to analyzing companies by their financial statements
founds in SEC Filing, business trends, general economic conditions, etc.
·100 Technical analysis studies prices action in market through the use of charts
and quantitative techniques to attempt to forecast prices trends regardless of the
company’s financial prospects.
·101 One examples of a technical strategy is the Trend following method, used
by John W Henry and risk control and diversification.
·102 Additional, many choose to invent via the index method. One holds a
weight or unweight portfolio consisting of the entire stock market or some
segment of the stock market (such as the S&P 500 or Wilshire 5000).

Taxation:
Objectives of study:
·106 To understand & analyze the marketing strategies and analyze online
·109 To get the Demat account opened of potential customers in favor of Tata
Securities. Analysis of need and satisfaction of distribution of financial
services.
·110 To give a brief idea about the benefits available from Mutual Funds
investment and idea of types of schemes available.
·112 To study some of the mutual funds schemes and analyze them observe the
funds management process of mutual funds.
·113 Explore the recent developments in the Mutual Funds in India. To give an idea
about the regulations of Mutual Funds.
47
During my project analysis I was very keen to find some key areas which need to be
taken care seriously in the future because these are causing dissatisfaction among
distributors.
Most of distribution felt dissatisfaction with their brokers but some of disappointing areas
are-
·114 More exposure: Most of distributors want some more exposure for them clients
from their share broking companies. A Tata security is now providing super
exposure p to 15 of the margin (cash segment) the step like this really creates
satisfaction for the distributors.
·115 Brokerage problem: Some companies have very high brokerage chares which
create differences of market share of different companies and also dissatisfaction
among distributors.
·116 Fewer offers: Most of companies lag behind in giving time to time offers in order
to attract new customers.
LIMITATIONS:
·118 The study of limited to the different schemes available under the mutual funds
selected.
48
·121 Mass reach- The new and different offers should be communicated to the large
value of potential inventors so that the offers can hit the target.
·122 Full information- The companies should reveal all the information regarding
any scheme so that investors can feel free to invest.
·126 Target rural areas also- many potential investors are also trust in rural areas.
They come to cities (like in Jaipur) for various works. There should some special
offers to attract them in share trading.
·128 Some offers for women should be introduced to get a new share of market.
49
