The uncertainty and the rapid fluctuations in the Indian capital market

made many investors at home and foreign wary about the future of their investments. So
in order to lessen this uncertainty in the market, SEBI introduced many new trends by
making changes in the way the capital market functions by introducing online trading,
rolling settlement, dematerialization of shares, etc. This project is only an attempt to find
the effect of these trends on the Indian market. This study is done with reference of
S.S.KANTILAL ISHWARLAL SECURITIES&INVESTORS Pvt. Ltd. (SSKI), so its
scope is limited to SSKI.
OBJECTIVES OF THE STUDY
1) To analyze the changes in trading after the exchange shifted from outcry to

4) To know about the latest and future development in the stock exchange
trading system and its procedure.
5) To study the effect of the changing trends in the capital market on the investor,
the broker and on the country largely, particularly in Hyderabad.

other bodies as for share and debentures issued by the joint stock enterprises.
Stock exchanges provide liquidity to the listed companies; they give quotations to
the listed companies and help in trading and raising funds from the market.
An exchange provides ready market for the sale and purchase of securities.
Stock market in India is more than century old and has been functioning effectively
through the medium of recognized stock exchanges. The stock market, which is
integral part of the capital, has a major impact on the functioning of the corporate
sector in particular. Since the capital market is playing, major role in the Indian
 economy from the past several years there is an essential need to study the overall
functioning of stock exchange.

Following diagram gives the structure of Indian financial system:
FINANCIAL MARKETS:

Financial markets are helpful to provide liquidity in the system and for smooth
functioning of the system. These markets are the centers that provide facilities for buying
and selling of financial claims and services. The financial markets match the demands of
investment with the supply of capital from various sources.

According to functional basis financial markets are classified into two types.
They are:
 Money markets (short-term)
 Capital markets (long-term)

According to institutional basis again classified in to two types.

They are:
 Organized financial market
 Non-organized financial market.

The organized market comprises of official market represented by recognized

institutions, bank and government (SEBI) registered/controlled activities and
intermediaries. The unorganized market is composed of indigenous bankers,
moneylenders, individual professional and non-professionals.

MONEY MARKET:
Money market is a place where we can raise short-term capital.
Again the money market is classified in to
 Inter bank call money market
 Bill market and
 Bank loan market Etc.
E.g.; treasury bills, commercial papers, CD's etc.

CAPITAL MARKET:
Capital market is a place where we can raise long-term capital.
Again the capital market is classified in to 2 types and they are
 Primary market and
  Secondary market.
E.g.: Shares, Debentures, and Loans etc.

My emphasis is more on capital market.

PRIMARY MARKET

Primary market is generally referred to the market of new issues or market for
mobilization of resources by the companies and government undertakings, for new
projects as also for expansion, modernization, addition, diversification and up gradation.
Primary market is also referred to as New Issue Market. Primary market operations
include new issues of shares by new and existing companies, further and right issues to
existing shareholders, public offers, and issue of debt instruments such as debentures,
bonds, etc.
The primary market is regulated by the Securities and Exchange Board of India (SEBI a
government regulated authority).

FUNCTIONS:-

The main services of the primary market are origination, underwriting, and distribution.
Origination deals with the origin of the new issue. Underwriting contract make the shares
predictable and remove the element of uncertainty in the subscription. Distribution refers
to the sale of securities to the investors.

The following are the market intermediaries associated with the market:
1. Merchant banker/book building lead manager
2. Registrar and transfer agent
3. Underwriter/broker to the issue
 4. Adviser to the issue
5. Banker to the issue
6. Depository
7. Depository participant

INVESTORS PROTECTION IN PRIMARY MARKETS:-

To ensure healthy growth of primary market, the investing public should be protected.
The term investor protection as a wider meaning in the primary market. The principal
ingredients of investors protection are
 Provision of all the relevant information
 Provision of accurate information and
 Transparent allotment procedures without any bias.

SECONDARY MARKET:-

The primary market deals with the new issues of securities. Outstanding securities are
traded in the secondary market, which is commonly known as stock market or stock
exchange. “The secondary market is a market where scrips are traded”. It is a market
place which provides liquidity to the scrips issued in the primary market. Thus, the
growth of secondary market depend on the primary market. More the number of
companies entering the primary market, the greater is the volume of trade at the
secondary market. Trading activities in the secondary market are done through the
recognized stock exchanges which are 23 in number including Over The Counter
Exchange of India, National Stock Exchange of India and Interconnected Stock Exchange
of India.

Secondary market operations involve buying and selling of securities on the stock
exchange through its members. The companies hitting the primary market are
mandatorily required to list their shares on one or more stock exchanges in India
including stock exchanges. Listing of scrips provides liquidity and offers an opportunity
to the investors to buy or sell the scrips.
The following intermediaries in the secondary market:
1. Broker/member of stock exchange – buyers broker and sellers broker
2. Portfolio Manager
3. Investment advisor
4. Share transfer agent
5. Depository
6. Depository participants.

STOCK MARKETS IN INDIA

Stock exchanges are the perfect type of market for securities whether of government and
semi-govt bodies or other public bodies as also for shares and debentures issued by the
joint-stock companies. In the stock market, purchases and sales of shares are affected in
conditions of free competition. Government securities are traded outside the trading ring
in the form of over the counter sales or purchase. The bargains that are struck in the
trading ring by the members of the stock exchanges re at the fairest prices determined by
the basic laws of supply and demand.

DEFINITION OF STOCK EXCHANGE:-

“Stock exchange means any body or individuals whether incorporated or not,

constituted for the purpose of assisting, regulating or controlling the business of buying,
selling or dealing in securities.”
 The securities include:
1. Shares, scrip, stocks, bonds. Debentures stock or other marketable securities of a
like nature in or of any incorporated company or other body corporate;
2. Government securities; and
3. Rights or interest in securities.

HISTORY OF STOCK EXCHANGE:-

The only stock exchanges operating in the 19 th century were those of
Mumbai setup in 1875 and Ahmedabad set up in 1894. These were organized as
voluntary non-profit-marking associations of brokers to regulate and protect their
interests. Before the control on securities under the constitution in 1950, it was a state
subject and the Bombay securities contracts (control) act of 1925 used to regulate trading
in securities. Under this act, the Mumbai stock exchange was recognized in 1927 and
ahemedabad in 1937. During the war boom, a number of stock exchanges were
organized. Soon after it became a central subject, central legislation was proposed and a
committee headed by a.d.gorwala went into the bill for securities regulation. On the basis
of the basis of the committee’s recommendations and public discussion, the securities
contract (regulation) act became law in 1956.

FUNCTIONS OF STOCK EXCHANGE:-

Stock exchanges provide liquidity to the listed companies. By giving
quotations to the listed companies, they help trading and raise funds from the market,
savings of investors flow into public loans and to joint-stock enterprises because of this
ready marketability and unequalled facility for transfer of ownership of stocks, shares and
securities provided by the recognized stock exchanges as a result, over the hundred and
twenty years during which the stock exchanges have existed in this country and through
their medium, the central and state government have raised crores of rupees by floating
public loans; municipal corporations, improvement trust, local bodies and state finance
corporations have obtained from the public their financial requirements, and industry,
trade an commerce- the backbone of the country’s economy-have secured capital of
crores or rupees through the issue of stocks, shares and debentures for financing their
day-to-day activities, organizing new ventures and completing projects of expansion,
diversification and modernization. By obtaining the listing and trading facilities, public
investment is increased and companies were able to raise more funds. The quoted
companies with wide public interest have enjoyed some benefits and assets valuation has
become easier for tax and other purposes.

At present there are 23 stock exchanges recognized under the securities contracts
(regulation), Act, 1956. Those are

The Organization

The National Stock Exchange (NSE) of India Limited has genesis in the report of the
High Powered Study Group on Establishment of New Stock Exchanges, which
recommended promotion of a National Stock Exchange by financial institutions (FIs) to
provide access to investors from all across the country on an equal footing. Based on the
recommendations, NSE was promoted by leading Financial Institutions at the behest of
the Government of India and was incorporated in November 1992 as a tax-paying
company unlike other stock exchanges in the country.

On its recognition as a stock exchange under the Securities Contracts (Regulation) Act,
1956 in April 1993, NSE commenced operations in the Wholesale Debt Market (WDM)
segment in June 1994. The Capital Market (Equities) segment commenced operations in
November 1994 and operations in Derivatives segment commenced in June 2000.
NSE's mission is setting the agenda for change in the securities markets in India. The
NSE was set-up with the main objectives of:

 Establishing a nation-wide trading facility for equities, debt instruments and

hybrids,
 Ensuring equal access to investors all over the country through an appropriate
communication network,
 Providing a fair, efficient and transparent securities market to investors using
electronic trading systems,
 Enabling shorter settlement cycles and book entry settlements systems, and
 Meeting the current international standards of securities markets.

The standards set by NSE in terms of market practices and technology has become
industry benchmarks and is being emulated by other market participants. NSE is more
than a mere market facilitator. It's that force which is guiding the industry towards new
horizons and greater opportunities.

non-members, public representatives and government representatives to the
extent of 50% of total number of members.
2. Capital adequacy norms have been laid down for the members of various

Types of order:
Buy and sell orders placed with members of the stock exchange by the investors. The
orders are of different types.

Limit orders: Orders are limited by a fixed price’ buy Reliance Petroleum at Rs.50.Here,
the orders has clearly indicated the price at which it has to be bought and the investor is
not willing to give more than Rs.50.

Best rate order: Here, the buyer or seller gives the freedom to the broker to execute the
order at the best possible rate quoted on the particular date for buying. It may be lowest
rate for buying and highest rate for selling.

Discretionary order: The investor gives the range of price for purchase and sale. The
broker can use his discretion to buy within the specified limit. Generally the
approximation price is fixed. The order stands as this “buy BRC 100 shares around
Rs.40”.

Stop loss order: The orders are given to limit the loss due to unfavorable price
movement in the market. A particular limit is given for waiting. If the price falls below
the limit, the broker is authorized to sell the shares to prevent further loss. E.g., Sell
ANDHRABANK at Rs.105 stops loss at Rs.100.
Buying and selling shares: The to buy and sell the share the investor has to locate
register broker or sub broker who render prompt and efficient to service to him. The order
to buy or sell specified number of shares of the company of investor’s choice are placed
with the broker. The order may be of any of the above any mentioned type. After
receiving the order the broker tries to execute the order in his computer terminal. Once
matching order is found, the order is executed. The broker the delivers the contract note

To the investor. It gives the details regarding the name of the company, number of shares
bought, price, brokerage, and the date of delivery of share. In this physical trading form,
once the broker gets the share certificate through the clearing houses he delivers the share
certificate along with transfer deed to the investor. The investor has to fill the transfer
deed and stamp it. The stamp duty is one of the percentage considerations, the investor
should lodge the share certificate and transfer deed to the register or transfer agent of the
company. If it is bought in the DEMAT form, the broker has to give a matching
instruction to his depository participant to transfer shares bought to the investors account.
The investor should be account holder in any of the depository participant. In the case of
sale of shares on receiving payment from the purchasing broker, the broker effects the
payment to the investor.

Share groups: The listed shares are divided into 3 categories:

Group A shares, B1 shares, B shares. The last 2 groups are referred to cleared securities
or non specified shares. The shares that come under the specified group can avail the
carry forward transaction. In ‘A’ group, shares are selected on the basis of equity, market
capitalization and public holding. Further it should have good track record and dividend
paying company. It should have good growth potential too. The trading volumes and the
investor’s base are high in ‘A’ group shares. Any company when it satisfies these criteria
would be shifted from ‘B’ group to ‘A’ group.
In the B1 group actively traded share are included. Carry forward transactions are not
allowed in this group. Settlement takes place through the clearinghouse along with the ‘A’
group shares. The settlement cycle and the procedure are identical to ‘A’ group security.
The rest of the company shares listed from the ‘B’ group.
Rolling settlement system:
Under rolling settlement system, the settlement takes place n days (usually 1, 2, 3 or
5days) after the trading day. The shares bought and sold are paid in for n days after the
trading day of the particular transaction. Share settlement is likely to be completed much
sooner after the transaction than under the fixed settlement system.
The rolling settlement system is noted by T+N i.e. the settlement period is n days after
the trading day. A rolling period which offers a large number of days negates the
advantages of the system. Generally longer settlement periods are shortened gradually.
SEBI made RS compulsory for trading in 10 securities selected on the basis of the
criteria that they were in compulsory demat list and had daily turnover of about Re.1
crore or more. Then it was extended to “A” stocks in Modified Carry Forward Scheme,
Automated Lending and Borrowing Mechanism (ALBM) and Borrowing and lending
Securities Scheme (BELSS) with effect from dec 31, 2001.
SEBI has introduced T+5 rolling settlement in equity market from July 2001 and
subsequently shortened the cycle to T+3 from April 2002. After the T+3 rolling
settlement experience it was further reduced to T+2 to reduce the risk in the market and
to protect the interest of the investors from 1st April 2003.

 TRADING PROCEDURE

OUTCRY SYSTEM

TRADING IN THE STOCK EXCHANGE:

-THE CONVENTION DAY
The broker has to buy or sell securities for which he has received the
orders. For this, the broker or his authorized representatives goes to the stock exchange.
This method is called the open outcry system. Basically the brokers shout while buying
or selling the securities. The floor of the stock exchange is divided into a number of
markets also known as ‘post pit’ or wing based on particular securities dealt there.
In the post pit or wing, the broker using ‘open outcry’ method makes an offer or bid price.
For making the necessary bargain, he quotes his purchase or sale price, also known as
offer or bid price. The dealer, to whom the price is quoted, quotes his own price when the
quotation of the dealer suits the broker, he may loose the bargain. If he is not satisfied
with the quote price, he may turn to some other dealer. On the close of the bargain, the
dealer as well as the broker makes a brief not of the particulars of the deal. Such notes are
made on some pad and on it the number of shares, the price agreed upon, the name of the
party, what membership number etc., are noted.

DISADVANTAGES OF OUTCRY SYSTEM:

 It lacks transparency.
 The scope of manipulation, speculation and mal practice more.
 The time gap between many of the trading operations used to be met quickly and
easily.
 Signal were more important in the outcry system any member who could not
interpret the buy/sell signal correctly often landed himself in disastrous situation.
 In audibility was another disadvantage of the outcry system.
Due to the above disadvantages of the outcry system, the SHAREKHAN has shifter from
outcry system to online trading from February 29 1997.

MANUAL TRADING

TRADING PROCEDURE BEFORE INTRODUCTION OF ONLINE TRADING:-

Trading on stock exchanges is officially done in the trading ring. In the trading ring the
space is provided for specified and non-specified sections, the members and their
authorized assistants have to wear a badge or carry with them on identity card given by
the exchange to enter the trading ring. They carry a sauda book or confirmation memos,
duly authorized by the exchange and carry a pen with them. The stock exchanges
operations are floor level are technical in nature .Non-members are not permitted to enter
in to stock market. Hence various stages have to be completed in executing a transaction
at a stock exchange .The steps involved in this method of trading have given below:

CHOICE OF BROKER:-

The prospective investor who wants to buy shares or the investors, who wants to sell
shares and transact business, have to act through member brokers only. They can also
appoint their bankers for this purpose as per the present regulations.

PLACEMENT OF ORDER:-

The next step is the placing order for the purchase or sale of securities with a broker. The
order is usually placed by telegram, telephone, letter, fax etc or in person. To avoid delay,
it is placed generally over the phone. The orders may take any one of the forms such as
At Best Orders, Limit Order, Immediate or Cancel Order, Limited Discretionary Order,
and Open Order, Stop Loss Order.
EXECUTION OF ORDER OR CONTRACT:-

Orders are executed in the trading ring of the BSE. This works from 11:30 to 2.30 P.M on
all working days Monday to Friday, and a special one-hour session on Saturday. The
members or the authorized assistants have to wear a badge given by the exchange to enter
into the trading ring. They carry a suada Block Book or conformation memos, which are
duly authorized by the exchange when the deal is struck; both broker and jobber make a
note in their suada block books. From the suada book, the contract notes are drawn up
and posted to the client. A contract note is written agreement between the broker and his
clients for the transaction executed.

DRAWING UP AND BILLS:-

Both sale and purchase bills are prepared along with the contract note and it is posted on
the same day or the next day. This in a purchase transaction, once the shares are delivered
to the client effects payment for the purchases and pays the stamp fees for transfer, a bill
is made out giving the total cost of purchase, including other expenses incurred by the
broker in the price itself. With this, the process ends.

DEMATERLIZATION:

Dematerialization is the process by which physical certificates of an investor are

converted to an equipment number of securities in electronic from and credited in the
investor account with his DP. In order to dematerialization his certifies an investor has to
first open an account with a DP and then request for the Dematerialization Request Form,
which is DP and submit the same along with the share certificates. The investor has to
ensure that he marks “Submitted for Dematerialization” on the certificates before the
shares are handed over to the DP for demat. Dematerialization can only be done to those
certificates, which are already registered in your name and belong to the list of securities
admitted for Dematerialization at NSDL.
Most of the active scrip’s in the market including all the scrip’s of S&P CNXNIFTY and
BSE SENSEX have already joined NSDL. This list is steadily increasing.
Briefly, the process is as follows: after completion of transfer, the investor gets the option
to dematerialize such shares. Investor’s willing to exercise this option sends a Demat
request along with the option letter sent by the company to his DP. The company or its
R&T agent would confirm the Demat request on its receipt from the DP to reduce risk of
loss in transit.
Dematerialized shares do not have any distinctive or certificate numbers. These shares are
fungible-which means that 100 shares of a security are the same as any other 100 shares
of the security. Odd lot shares certificates can also be dematerialized.
Dematerialization normally takes about fifteen to thirty days. To get back dematerialized
securities in the physical form, request DP for Rematerialization of the same is made.
Rematerialization is the process of converting electronic shares in to physical shares.

BENEFITS OF DEMAT:-

Transacting the depository has several advantages like

 It reduces the risk of bad deliveries, in turn saving the cost and wastage of time
associated with follow up for rectification. This has lead to reduction in brokerage to the
extent of 0.5% by quite a few brokerage firms.

 In case of transfer of electronic shares, you save 0.5% in stamp duty. You avoid the cost
of courier / notarization. The need for further follow-up with your broker for the
Shares returned for company objection.

 You can receive your bonuses and rights issues into your DA as a direct credit, this
eliminating risk of loss in transit.
 You can also expect a lower interest charge for loans taken against Demat shares as
compared t internet for loans against physical shares.

 There is no lost in transit, thus the overheads of getting a duplicate copy in such
circumstances is reduced.

 RBI has increased the limit of loans against dematerialized securities as collateral to
Rs.1 per borrower in case of loans against physical securities.

 RBI has also reduced the minimum margin to 25% for loans against dematerialized
securities as against 50% for loans against physical securities.

offering analysis and information to investors during broking and non-broking
hours based on their profile and needs, i.e. customized services.

public offering online, on-line asset allocation, portfolio management, financial
planning, tax planning, insurance services, etc. and enables the investors to take
better and well considered decisions.

they are doing, but the truth is that even through technology has taken over the
basic rules of trading are the same. It seems that the middleman has been
removed, but that is not so. When the individuals click on the mouse, his trade
goes through a broker. The commissions online pertain to the intermediary.
 There is a need for more effective communication links over the Internet and the
ability of the server to deal with a large volume of visitors.

PROBLEM AREAS:

When internet trading was first launched in Feb. 2000, the stock markets were
experiencing an unprecedented boom and it held out a lot of promise. However, two
years down the line we find the system as failed to deliver up to its potential. The main
reasons for declining volume of trading are:

Bearish market:

The poor performance in the on line market segment can be attributed to lack of Bull Run
in the stock market. This is the reason for which the overall trading as come down.
Almost ever since internet trading has started the markets have remained bearish. This
relationship between the mood of the market and the internet in trading indeed gets
reflected in the volumes.

Poor penetration of the internet:

Besides the bearishness in the equity market, another reason for low acceptance of net
trading could be poor penetration of the internet. In India it is a fact that internet has not
been able to spread it’s tentacles in rural areas and small towns.

The very basis of net trading is based on two factors:

1. An equity market in good shape.
2. Deep penetration of the internet.

Poor internet connectivity:

In the Indian context, the quality of internet connections also comes into play for
determining the reasons for the lack in response. Here, we have connectivity problems
and there are instances of clients panicking, as they could not execute their trades. Many
times at particularly at places other than Mumbai, sudden stoppage of electricity results in
disconnection.

Long supply chain:

In case of conventional or offline, trading the chain is small as the clients directly interact
with the brokers. However, in case of internet trading the chain is quite long as it involves
a client, an internet service provider, server, stock exchange, depositor and a broker and a
problem can rise up at any stage of the chain, breaking down the entire system.

A Costly Affair:

Other than the technological hassles, there is an element of cost as well. For active
traders, doing online trading he has to remain connected all the time and the cost of
connecting through dial up can work out to Rs 3500 per month which is over and above
the brokerage and other service charges. This is the reason offering online trading facility
Allows the clients to use the conventional system as well in order to retain them. A part
from a dealing room, most broking houses have a separate room for the clients. Where
the stock exchanges terminals are kept for their use.

Low Investor Confidence:

Investor confidence in the country has been badly hurt due to the escalating IndoPak
tensions. This sentiment has got reflected in the stock markets, which have gone down.
The global recession has also dampened the mood of the stock market. Although, the US
economy is showing signs of recovery, but any tangible outcome is yet to be felt.
OBSERVATIONS AND FINDINGS

 Fluctuations more in secondary market than any other market.

 There are more speculators than investors.

 Information plays a vital role in the secondary market.

 Previously rolling settlement is T+5 days, now it changed to T+2 days and further
it will be changing to T+1 day.

 According to Mr. Manish Sukhla of Motilal Oswal Securities, many clients who
registered themselves for online trading ended up using the offline system.

 It was also observed that many broking houses offering internet trading allow
clients to use their conventional system as well just ensure that they do not loose
them and this instead of offering e-broking services they becomes service
providers.

 The number of players is increasing at a steady rate and today there are over a
dozen of brokerage houses who have opted to offer net trading to their customers
and prominent among them are SHARE KHAN, India bulls, kotakstreet, Motilal
Oswal securities and geojit.

 The Bombay stock exchange sensex zoomed past the 6900 barrier for the first
time in history to achieve new all time high of 6864.62 intra day trade and ended
at a historic close of 6849.48 points.

 SEBI reconstruct the retail investors limit i.e., Rs.50000 to Rs.100000.

 Conclusion

 Things have changed for the better with the SHAREKHAN going on-line coupled
with endeavor to stream line the whole trading system, things have changed
dramatically over the last 3 to 4 years. New and advanced technologies have
breached geographical and cultural barriers, and have brought the countrywide
market to doorstep. BROKER’S have suddenly been thrown to intense
competition from their counter parts across the country.
 The Regional Stock Exchanges have their own advantages like being nearer to the
retail investors and to let the Broker’s perish would be detrimental to stock market
system there is no brokerage firms with in India with national reach.
 In the present scenario and to compete the BROKER’S would require sound
infrastructure and trading as per international standards. The concepts of business
have changed and today this has become service to client or to provide the best
possible service to client or to engage into new business from the regional center
to the metro centers and to impart liquidity introduction of on-line trading is
necessary.
 The introduction of on-line trading would influence in the investors resulting in an
increase in the business of the exchange. It has helped the brokers handling a vast
amount of transactions and this can be an efficient trading, delivering, settlement
system with adequate protection to investors. The trading of SHAREKHAN of the
first day was Fs. 1.8 crores.

 Due to invention of online trading there has been greater benefit to the investors
as they could sell / buy shares as and when required and that to with online
trading, it will inspire confidence in investors resulting in increase business of the
exchange.
 The BROKER’S has a greater scope than compared to the earlier times because of
invention of online trading.
 The concept of business has changed today this is a service oriental industry
hence the survival would require them to provide the best possible service to the
client.
 The longer trading time had helped the investors as well as the broker to take
much interest in the trading of the securities as they had extra time to take in the
security market.
 The existing system can be further improved by introduction of stop loss facility
that will help to reduce investor’s losses.
 Also there is need for an exchange to setup standing committee into breakdown of
online trading.
 SUGGESTIONS:

 I suggest the exchange authorities to take steps to educate Investors about their
rights and duties. I suggest to the exchange authorities to increase the investors’
confidences.
 I suggest the exchange authorities to be vigilant to curb wide fluctuations of
prices.
 The speculative pressures are responsible for the wide changes in the price, not
attracting the genuine investors to the greater extent towards the market.
 Genuine investors are not at all interested in the speculative gain as their
investment is based on the future profits, therefore the authorities of the
exchange should be more vigilant in imposing to curb the speculative of
securities.
 Necessary steps should be taken by the exchange to deal with the situations
arising due to break down in online trading.
