INTRODUCTION
CONCEPT OF SECURITY ANALYSIS
Security analysis is the analysis of tradeable financial instruments called securities. It deals
with finding the proper value of individual securities (i.e., stocks and bonds). These are usually
classified into debt securities, equities, or some hybrid of the two. Tradeable credit derivatives
are also securities. Commodities or futures contracts are not securities. They are distinguished
from securities by the fact that their performance is not dependent on the management or
activities of an outside or third party. Options on these contracts are however considered
securities, since performance is now dependent on the activities of a third party.
SECURITIES INCLUDE
2. Government securities
CONCEPT OF PORTFOLIO
Portfolio is the collection of financial or real assets such as equity shares, debentures, bonds,
treasury bills and property etc. portfolio is a combination of assets or it consists of collection
of securities. These holdings are the result of individual preferences, decisions of the holders
regarding risk, return and a host of other considerations.
PORTFOLIO MANAGEMENT
The problem of choice is for an investor considering investing in securities. Out of a great
number of securities investor choice depends on individual securities' risk return
characteristics. investor would try to pick the most desirable securities and spend investor funds
on investor securities group. Once again, investor has to decide which securities to hold and
how much to invest in each of them.

portfolio. Taking into account the risk and return characters of all possible portfolios the
investor tries to select the optimal portfolio.
The changing risk return characteristics of individual securities and the portfolio also change
as the economic and financial environment. An investor invests in a portfolio that expects a
good return with a lower risk.
Portfolio management's goal is to invest in securities so that the return can be maximized and
risks minimized to achieve the investment objective.
2
there are too many unlisted or inactive portions of your portfolio. Investment in
companies that are actively traded in major bourses is desirable.
5) Liquidity: The portfolio should ensure that the investors' liquidity requirements can be
met with sufficient funds in the short-term.
6) Tax planning: Owners should enjoy a good tax shelter in a good portfolio. In view of
income, capital gains, gift tax, the portfolio should be developed. Taxation planning,
but not tax avoidance, is the goal of a good portfolio.
The capital market is a financial market that provides for an orderly exchange of longterm needs
and facilitates them. In India, two types of the capital market are classified.
New issues of long-term securities are addressed on the main market. In contrast, the secondary
market concerns the purchase and sale of old or existing securities, already listed on the official
list of recognized stock exchanges.
• Merchant bankers.
• Registrars.
• Collecting and coordinating bankers.
• Sponsors and brokers.
With growth in business and industry and a more complex economy, permanent financing is
required. Entrepreneurs need money for long-term needs, therefore the solution to this problem
gave way to the bursaries' origin as an investment and liquidity market.
In accordance with the 1956 Securities Contract Act, Stock Exchange refers to anybody of
individuals, whether or not constituted to regulate or control securities businesses.

HISTORY OF STOCK EXCHANGE
Bombay was set up in 1875, and Ahmedabad was set up in 1894 was the only stock exchanges
operating in the 19th century. These were efficient market hypotheses which were organized to
regulate and protect the interests of brokers' voluntary, non-profit-making association. It was a
state subject, and the Bombay securities contracts (control) Act of 1925 used to regulate the
trade in securities, before securities trading was a central issue under the Constitution in 1950.
The Bombay Stock Exchange in 1927 and Ahmedabad in 1937 were recognized under this Act.
During the war boom, even in Bombay, Ahmedabad and other centers, several stock exchanges
were organized but were not recognized. Shortly after it became central themes, central laws
were proposed and the bill for securities regulation was introduced by a committee headed by
A.D.Gorwala. The Securities Contracts (regulation) Act became law in 1956 on the basis of the
Committee's recommendations and the public debate.
National Stock Exchange was incorporated in the year 1992 to bring about transparency in the
Indian equity markets. NSE was set up at the behest of the Government of India, based on the
recommendations laid out by the Pherwani committee in 1991 and the blueprint was prepared
by a team of five members (Ravi Narain, Raghavan Puthran, K Kumar, Chitra Sankaran and
Ashishkumar Chauhan) along with R H Patil and SS Nadkarni who were deputed by IDBI in
1992. Instead of trading memberships being confined to a group of brokers, NSE ensured that
anyone who was qualified, experienced, and met the minimum financial requirements were
allowed to trade.
NSE commenced operations in 30 June 1994 starting with the wholesale debt market (WDM)
segment and equities segment in 03 November 1994. It was the first exchange in India to
introduce an electronic trading facility. Within one year of the start of its operations, the daily
turnover on NSE exceeded that of the BSE. Operations in the derivatives segment commenced
in 12 June 2000. In August 2008, NSE introduced currency derivatives.
"Stock exchange means anybody or individuals whether incorporated or not, constituted for the
purpose of assisting, regulating or controlling the business of buying, selling or dealing in
securities."

It is a member broker association for the self-regulation and defense of its members' interests.
It can only work if the government recognizes it under the 1956 Securities Contracts
(Regulation) Act.
The central government, the Ministry of Finance, shall grant recognition according to section
3 of the Act.
The scope of the acquisition and ownership of capital by private persons is also increasing, as
is the case in the future. There is extraordinary ignorance and prejudice arising from ignorance
in relation to the nature and function of stock markets. In addition, there is a very large
opportunity for a stock exchange to help stimulate private savings and to challenge these
savings for productive investment. These services can be rendered efficiently on the stock
exchange alone.
In the construction of true shareholder democracy, the stock market plays an important role in
India. In order to safeguard the investment public's interests, not only its members, but also its
users, joint stock companies, and other entities in whose stocks and shares it deals, have become
increasingly disciplined in the stock exchange.
In addition to statutory regulations, investors are offered both current and potential through the
daily stock bursaries, the activities on the stock bourse are governed by a recognized code of
conduct. The task of the stock exchange and its members is to meet the need of the investment
market, to bring together the purchasers and sellers of investments and to ensure that stock
exchanges between them are as simple and fair as possible.
FORMATION OF SEBI
In order to 'guard' the securities interests of investors in securities and promote development
and regulate the securities market, and for matters associated or advisable to it, the Government
of India established in 1988 a Securities and Exchange Board of India (SEBI) as an autonomous
regulatory body." It has the right to exercise the duty of protecting investment rights and
regulate capital marketers through two acts, namely the SEBI Act, 1992 and the Security
Contract (Regulation) Act, 1956.
5
The regulatory scope of the Indian Securities and Exchange Board (SEBI) has been extended
to include more fields, and the capital market is significantly changing. The 199798 annual
report by SEBI stated that it sought to balance the twin objectives of investment protection and
market growth throughout its six-year existence as a statutory body. It has developed new rules
and regulations to encourage development. In 1996-97, monitoring and supervision in the Stock
Exchanges were implemented, and in 1997-98 they were enhanced.
In 1988 the Government of India created SEBI as an independent regulatory body to 'protect
investors' securities interests, promote the development, and regulate the securities market and
related issues.' It shall have the right to perform the function of protecting investor's right and
regulating capital markets through two acts: the SEBI Act of 1992 and the Securities Contract
Act (Regulation) Act of 1956.
SEBI's OBJECTIVES
In 1992, SEBI gave its statutory status to the promulgation of the SEBI ordinance in the
parliament. The three main objectives are, according to the preamble of the SEBI:
FUNCTIONS OF SEBI
• Stock Exchange business and any other stock market regulations. Sub-breakers, equity
transfer agents, bankers to the issue, trust trustees, registrars for a problem, traders' bankers,
underwriters, registered stock brokers and regulators;
• Portfolio managers, investment advisors and those other intermediaries that are in any way
related to the securities market.
• Registering the operation of collective investment schemes including mutual funds and
regulating them.

NEED FOR THE STUDY
Investors invest all their savings in one security are seldom found. They generally invest in a
securities group. In order to provide investors with the maximum return on a particular level of
risk or to ensure minimum risk for a certain level of return, this portfolio management study
helps investors to select securities. By diversifying the portfolio, the risk could be reduced.
The study helps examines the number of opportunities with different individual stock risks and
portfolio construction by eliminating high risk. Time to time the NSE listed stocks are always
volatile so that the study always helps investors for wealth maximization of investments.
7
OBJECTIVES OF THE STUDY
• To measure the correlation coefficients of NSE index stocks in STEEL CITY
SECURITIES LTD., PEDDAPURAM.
• To study the risk (𝜎2) for individual analysis and portfolio analysis.
8
SCOPE OF THE STUDY
The study has been conducted by observing the share price movement of NSE listed companies
from 16th may 2023 to 16th June 2023. In this study, the standard deviation measures and
variance of co-variance of all the companies present in NSE Index are calculated. It also covers
the calculations of correlation coefficient and covariance which are further used in calculations
of portfolio weights and risks.
This study helps the investor to find out the optimum investment by knowing their risk patterns.
9
LIMITATIONS OF THE STUDY
• The study is limited to NSE INDEX, twenty-five companies but both BPCL and ONGC
are related to same sector and also Standard Deviation of both companies are same So
considering ONGC over both.
• Investors desired level of variance 𝜎𝑖2 of individual stocks were not taken into
consideration

REVIEW OF LITERATURE
The review of literature is very significant for finding the research gap and statement of
problem for further research study.
ABSTRACT:
The main objective of this study is to encourage investors to invest in mutual funds to maximize
their return on the capital in those areas. The research provided an interesting overview of
mutual funds, the risk of investors' skills and preferred investment options etc. In the last couple
of years Indian capital has grown enormously. The economy has been opened up and numerous
trends have taken place on the Indian money and capital markets with economic reforms,
investment policy reforms, public sector reforms and financial sector reforms. The mutual fund
industry has taken an important place to help small investors. This study helps us understand
how companies in various sectors and companies diversify themselves to maximize their
returns and minimize the risks involved.
The main goal of the study is to understand the performance of infrastructure equities 1)
FINDINGS:
The current project work was carried out for a period of one month to study security analysis.
The following facts were identified during this study.
12
1) The average return on the company GMR INFRA is -78.235; 0.6 of the month's highest price
is 22.65 on 1-Feb-17, respectively. During the month the lowest price was 20.35 February 28th,
17th. The variation coefficient is -0.007669202.
2) The average return of HCC company is 0.23 and -85.635 risk. During the month, the
highest price was 14.85 on February 3, 17. On 28-Feb-17, the lowest monthly cost was 14.
The variation coefficient is -0.002685818.
3) The average return on the company NCC is -67.9425 and the 1.6 risk. The highest
monthly price for February 17 was 34.75. On the 11th and 12th February, the lowest price of
the month was 29.9. The variation coefficient is -0.023549325.
4) The average return of the LITL company is -89.255, with 0.30 risks. On 28 Feb-17, the
highest price was 11.65. On 24-Feb-17, the lowest monthly price was 10.5. The variation
coefficient is -0.003361156.
5) The average return for IVRCL is -79.7 and the 0.89 risk. On 1-Feb-17 the highest month
price was 21.75. On 09-Feb-17, 19.4 was the lowest price in the month. The variation
coefficient is -0.011166876.
6) The average return of the company SIMPLEX INFRA is -73,275 and 0,86. On 2-Feb17,
the month's highest price was 27:45. On 28-Feb-17, the lowest monthly price was 24. The
variation coefficient is -0.011736609.
CONCLUSION:
The study risk return investigation helps the investor to pick up the securities based on his
choice. It provides information about the performance of various stocks in the market in terms
of risk and return. This paper emphasizes on the market fluctuations relations to the prices of
Scrip’s though it is difficult to observe a pattern for the price movements but efforts have been
taken using fundamental analysis and technical analysis. Using fundamental analysis, it is
observed that the financial position and performance of the firms are in correlation with present
market prices. According to technical analysis, the historical data taken is used to observe the
trends followed by the Scrip’s. However, it cannot be said that any one method is sufficient to
analyze and interpret the fluctuations but they help the investor to define the trends to some
extent. Over all it can be said that the project is satisfied.

2. Sharpe’s single index model and its application to construct optimal
portfolio: an empirical study By Niranjan Mandal, B.N. Dutta Smriti
Mahavidyalaya and Burdwan published in The Great Lakes Herald
March 2013 (Volume 7, Issue 1)
ABSTRACT:
An attempt is made here to gain insight and empirically build an ideal portfolio using the idea
embedded in Sharpe's single index model. With regard to BSE SENSEX as the market
performance index, the proposed method defines a unique cut-off rate and selects such security
to create an optimal portfolio that is higher than the cut-off rate when the excess return on beta
ratio is taken into account, and the daily price of the sampled securities for April 2001 to March
2011. The investment percentage is then calculated based on the beta value, unsystematic risk,
excess return to beta ratio, and cut-off rate of each securities concerned, for each of the
securities selected.
2. To build an excellent portfolio using the Single Index Model of Sharpe empirically.
3. To assess the profit and risk of the optimal portfolio, built using the Single Index Model from
Sharpe.
FINDINGS:
(i) It is observed that as compared with the Markowitz Mean Variance Model, the Sharpe
Single Index model provides an easy mechanism to build a rational investor with an
optimal stock portfolio by analyzing why securities are included with its respective
weights. In fact, it simplifies to a large extent the portfolio problems in the model of
Markowitz.
(ii) There are significant similarities between the SIM and the Markowitz model with
regards to constructing the optimal portfolio, however the input requirement of the
Markowitz model requires less input than that required for achieving the risk and return
14
of the optimal portfolio. It is observed from the study that, by using its SIM
construction, only ten out of 20 one sampled securities can be integrated into the
optimal portfolio. The number of inputs required in SMI is 32 (applying 3n+2) for risk
and return of that portfolio, while that number is 65. Consequently, SIM naturally
reduces the calculation burden under Markowitz and claims additional loans in the
investment finance field.
(iii) A notable difference exists between the total risk of the optimal Portfolio computed by
SIM and Markowitz's model, according to two different mechanisms. The total risks of
the optimum portfolio (in terms of SD) under SIM were observed to be 2.87 percent,
while they were 1 percent. 79 percent take the required input from SIM in the
Markowitz model.
CONCLUSION:
The optimum Portfolio Investment is made easier and easier by using Sharpe's Single Index
Model than by using the Mean Variance model from Markowitz. Sharpe submitted that the
effective portfolios of SIM and Model Markowitz are considerably similar. This model can
show how risky a security is if a well-diversified portfolio of security is maintained. This study
is based on a small (n<30) sample, i.e. 21 securities sampled. To get a more accurate result, it
can be extended to a large sample. Hope that this study in investing finance will contribute a
little about a lot in the field of investment finance.

3. Portfolio management - risk & return analysis of selected scripts by Dr. V.
Sreehari, G. Ramesh, G. Vinesh Kumar, K. Sandeep Kumar in International
Journal of Mechanical Engineering and Technology (IJMET) Volume 8,
Issue 12, December 2017.
ABSTRACT
Portfolio management is a process of encompassing many activities of investing in assets and
securities. It is a dynamic and flexible concept and involves regular and systematic analysis,
judgement and action. A combination of securities held together will give a beneficial result if
they grouped in a manner to secure higher returns after taking into consideration the risk
elements.
The study covers analysis of selected scripts in diversified areas to study average return,
standard deviation, correlation among scripts, weights, portfolio risk and portfolio return.
Research methodology is the procedure of collecting, analyzing and interpreting the data to
diagnose the problem and react to the opportunity in such a way where the costs can be
minimized and the desired level of accuracy can be achieved to arrive at a particular conclusion.
SUGGESTIONS
• Of the five stocks selected, all the stocks have given positive returns. HINDUSTHAN
UNILEVER Bank and HUL has been giving good profits of over 25% while the other
16
companies have also given good returns. All the companies seem to be a good bet for
investment.
• Comparing the individual risks, HUL and AMBUJA CEMENT are high risky compared to
the other securities like BAJAJ AUTO, and HINDUSTHAN UNILEVER and it is suggested
that the investors should be careful while investing in high-risk securities.
• The investors who require average returns with low risk can invest in Hindustan Unilever
• Investors are advised to invest in Portfolios of Ambuja Cements & Hindustan Unilever (33%)
and Ambuja Cements & HINDUSTHAN UNILEVER Bank (31%) which have given the
maximum returns.
• Low Risk investors are advised to keep away from HUL & AMBUJA CEMENT and
Hindustan Unilever & HINDUSTHAN UNILEVER Bank and prefer the Portfolios of Bajaj
Auto with other companies which have the least risk.
CONCLUSIONS
The main objective of the Portfolio management is to help the investors to make wise choice
between alternate investments without a post trading shares. Any portfolio management must
specify the objectives like maximum returns, optimum Returns, capital appreciation, safety
etc., in the same prospectus.
This service renders optimum returns to the investors by proper selection and continuous
shifting of portfolio from one scheme to another scheme of from one plan to another plan within
the same scheme. “Greater portfolio return with less risk is always is an attractive combination”
for the investors.

4. A STUDY ON PORTFOLIO MANAGMENT by Kuraku Rekha, Mrs.
N.L.Deepthi, Malla Reddy Engineering College and Management Sciences,
Medchal, Telangana – 501401, JETIR August 2020, Volume 7, Issue 8, (ISSN-
2349-5162).
ABSTRACT
Anywhere, it's a combination of Risk safety features and references. This is a type of court and
equipment with various risk and returns characteristics, based on the assets or income of the
investor in the same period to avoid risk and return. In the other, or may not satisfy the behavior
of the joint component respectively. In other areas, it is a collection of objects such as money
or housing stock, debates, sculpture, treasury bills, and property, etc.
The portfolio management goal is capital security, income stability, economic growth, market
capitalization, equity and diversification, and good financial condition. Security not only
protects the firm durability but also perseveres with purchasing power. Complex revenues
facilitate the flow of revenue ie more efficiency and order.
Investors risk-free cash can invest in a portfolio that is calculated on the GAIL portfolio by
Titan, Infosys, and BHEL. Investors who are riskier or less risky are advised to invest in BHEL
with Titan, Wipro and Jindal Steel and if the mix is riskier than other problems.
The price of this challenge is to provide the best return on the highest investment risk.
Check if there is less liability risk than the security risk on which the portfolio is based.
Selected for evaluation of the cover results.
Decide on the combination of sectors/sectors that are not the best or not.
This work is a model, said Markowitz. Here, in the work from the ratio of the counting side for
the different combinations, the proportions with the highest possible base background are
selected. Still note the calculations of personal ties and the weight of personal chains at the end
18
of the hand. Research certificates cover 20 actions with a 12-month selection period, from April
2011 to March 2012.
RECOMMENDATIONS
1. Due to Titan, BHEL's moderate-income, investors are strongly encouraged to invest in these
securities to risk them.
2. WIPRO, Titan and Jindal Steel are the security risks if the leader is guaranteed. They suggest
that investors should be careful about what this investment implies
3. This should be recommended for investors who wish to return with high risks on BHEL's
questionnaires and securities.
CONCLUSION
1. Product risk may include the structure of the problem and Titan Gail, BHEL and Infosys
mean that the numbers are numbered.
2. Investors have less risk or less risk by investing heavily in BHEL and Titan, Wipro and
Jindal Steel and if the risk loss is greater than other combinations.

5. Investment Analysis and Portfolio Management of Top 10 Stocks Picks in
India Amid Market Turmoil in COVID-19 by Supriya Shivnarayan Singh in
International Journal of Science and Research (IJSR) ISSN: 2319-7064.
ABSTRACT
The COVID-19 pandemic has disrupted economic activity and have caused recessionary
situation. It has also disrupted an economy like India which is set to grow now at slower pace
for a decade. Stock market reacted very sharply with the increased number of infected
populations. Amid all this, Macquarie, a Sydney based Investment Bank, is bullish on ten stocks
mentioned in this paper. This paper analyses these ten stocks from Investment Perspective and
shows how a portfolio can be created using these stocks. This paper, with the help of
optimization model, tries to understand the effect of diversification and find out the optimal
number of stocks considering the risk and return. The model duly considers the investor’s
appetite as well. The research indicates that if Financial Analysis is done in a right manner, we
can analyze Investments rigorously and Manage Portfolios by using Excel and Google Sheets.
It can be concluded that, the returns can be maximized and risk can be minimized by proper
Investment Analysis and creating an optimized portfolio using top stock picks even in this
Market Turmoil caused due to pandemic like COVID-19.
RESEARCH OBJECTIVE
To analyze the top 10 stocks picks in India amid COVID-19, calculate their risks and return,
create an optimized portfolio using these stocks and understand the effect of diversification.
RESEARCH METHODOLOGY
The objective of this research is to analyze the top 10 stocks picks in India amid COVID-19,
calculate their risks and return, create an optimized portfolio using these stocks and understand
the effect of diversification. The research is based on historic data of last 5years (2 Jan, 2015 –
3 April, 2020). The research includes the first few days of lockdown period amid COVID-19
also. The research work is based on the secondary data from the published sources. The data is
sourced from Financial Times, Research papers and a Bloomberg Quint article. (Secondary
data is downloaded from any site like bse/nse etc) Investment analysis and
Portfolio Management concepts and principles are applied in this Research. We have analyzed
the stocks in the portfolio, calculated the return and risk individual stock as well as portfolio
20
risk and return, created an optimized portfolio and studied the effect of diversification on the
portfolio in this research.
CONCLUSION
If Financial Analysis is done in a right manner, we can analyze Investments rigorously and
Manage Portfolios using Excel and Google Sheets. Investment risk can be quantified and
measured by exploring the powerful relationships between stock prices, returns and risk. We
found that risk can be minimized and return can be maximized to a certain extent by
diversification. We can find out how much to invest in individual stocks of a portfolio for
desired return and risk. We can also find out, the maximum return that can be obtained from a
portfolio by using the model used in this research. Investment analysis and Portfolio
Management, helps us identify the way in which we should invest in stocks with some initial
calculations and identify the portfolio which would help us to gain better returns.

RESEARCH GAP
The above studies of review expressing different types of opinions of scholars.
1. The first research article reveals risk and return analysis of selected securities in India
with the objective of equity changes coefficient method and risk evaluation approach.
2. The second article deals with Sharpe single index model optimal portfolio construction
with the aim of excellent portfolio study through only one method of approach that is Sharpe.
3. The third research paper expressing portfolio management risk and return analysis. This
study also concentrated portfolio weights computation approach.
4. The fourth article studies the strategies of fund managers for portfolio with the aim of
market capitalization and equity fund performance.
The above studies are not covered total NSE listed Twenty-five stocks portfolio risk
and appraisal of investor wealth maximization, so that the gap is filled with the study of "A
portfolio management of NSE listed stocks with reference to STEEL CITY SECURITIES
LIMITED, PEDDAPURAM".
22
STATEMENT OF THE PROBLEM
The investors are expecting more returns with less risky securities are selected so that the
investors are not aware about the technical study of Markowitz model for risk (expected) study.
So, this study is helps to know how to construct the portfolio with Variance and Covariance
approach for risk analysis.
23
METHODOLOGY OF STUDY
The study is conducted to know the past performance of the NSE Index listed companies and
to construct the optimum portfolio based on risk and rate of returns of the companies. The data
collected may be either primary or secondary data
SECONDARY DATA:
Secondary data is also known as used data, which is collected by someone or is available readily
so that the data can be used by different groups of people based on their usage. Secondary data
can be available or collected through published annual reports, bulletins or printed materials
and through web which publishes the information supplied by companies.

➢ INDUSTRY PROFILE
➢ COMPANY PROFILE
INDUSRTY PROFILE
National Stock Exchange was incorporated in the year 1992 to bring about transparency in the
Indian equity markets. NSE was set up at the behest of the Government of India, based on the
recommendations laid out by the Pherwani committee in 1991 and the blueprint was prepared
by a team of five members (Ravi Narain, Raghavan Puthran, K Kumar, Chitra Sankaran and
Ashishkumar Chauhan) along with R H Patil and SS Nadkarni who were deputed by IDBI in
1992. Instead of trading memberships being confined to a group of brokers, NSE ensured that
anyone who was qualified, experienced, and met the minimum financial requirements were
allowed to trade.
NSE commenced operations in 30 June 1994 starting with the wholesale debt market (WDM)
segment and equities segment in 03 November 1994. It was the first exchange in India to
introduce an electronic trading facility. Within one year of the start of its operations, the daily
turnover on NSE exceeded that of the BSE. Operations in the derivatives segment commenced
in 12 June 2000. In August 2008, NSE introduced currency derivatives. .
In March 1995, the Bombay (Mumbai) Stock Exchange has introduced screen-based trading
called BOLT (BSE on-line Trading). The BOLT is designed to get best bids and offers from
jobbers' book as well as the best buy and sell orders from the order book. Slowly the network
is being extended to other cities too. Now the BOLT has a nationwide network. Trading Work
Stations are connected with the main computer at Mumbai through Wide Area Network (WAN).
The capacity of the Tandem hardware of BOLT is 5,00,000 trades per day (in 6 hours i.e from
9:30 a.m. to 3:30 p.m.). After getting specific approval from SEBI, BOLT connections have
been installed in Ahmedabad, Rajkot, Pune, Vadodara and Calcutta. The number of scrips on
BSE was 4,702 in March 1995 and has increased to 5,853 in March 1998.
SECURITIES TRADED
The securities traded in the BSE are classified into three groups namely, specified shares or 'A'
group and non-specified securities. The latter is sub-divided into 'BI' and 'B' groups. A group
26
contains the companies with large outstanding shares, good track record and large volume of
business in the secondary market. Carry forward transactions for a period of 90 days are
permitted in A group shares. A group contains 150 companies. Relatively liquid securities come
under the 'B1' group and it comprises 746 companies. The remaining shares are placed under
the 'B' group. Settlements of all the shares are carried out through the Clearing House. The
settlement period is reduced from 14 days to 7 days for all scrips.
SURVEILLANCE SYSTEM
There is a separate surveillance department in the stock exchange. The surveillance department
aims at providing free and fair market, arresting unsystematic risk from entering into the system
and managing risks. The surveillance can be classified into price surveillance and pre-
monitoring.
Price Surveillance
The surveillance department keeps a close watch over the price movements of scrips and aims
at an early detection of market manipulation like price rigging. The price surveillance is
effectively carried out mainly through
2. Margins.
Circuit filters
The circuit filters decide the range within which the traded prices of a scrip can vary on a day
compared to the previous day's closing price. The filter percentages are entered into the system.
The quote orders outside the prescribed filter hand cannot be traded. The filter percentages for
various scrips are changed at the end of the day. If there is a need, it may be changed even when
the trade is going on. In spite of the price filters if there is a manipulation in the price, the
trading of the particular scrip is suspended for a day or more depending upon the situation.
Margins
The trading members deposit part of their trades as a margin to the exchange. The margin
amount varies for Type-I members who trade in 'A' group shares and Type-II members who
27
have not opted for carry forward trade. Type-I members pay a daily margin of 15% on their
trades both on delivery and carry forward.
For Type-II members, the margin is computed on the basis of gross exposure or net exposure
and the higher of the margin is charged. Mark-to-market margins are collected on all notional
losses on a daily basis. Carry over margin is collected when traders' transactions are carried
forwarded in 'A' or specified group scrip from one settlement to another settlement.
Special margin
To curb the unwanted risk in the price and volume special margin has been imposed. The special
margin is levied on the net cumulative purchase of the scrip in which the rise in price is
abnormally high. It ranges from 25% to 100%.
Concentration margin
Apart from daily margin if the member's trade is concentrated on limited number of scrips say
one to three scrips, concentration margin is levied. If the sale or purchase position exceeds
50%, 65% and 80% respectively, the member has to pay concentration margin.
This margin is imposed on scrips quoting above Rs.40. If the price of the scrip changes by 16%
or more in one settlement compared to the closing price at the close of the previous settlement,
additional volatility margin is imposed on the traders.
Ad-hoc margin
The exchange imposes ad-hoc margin above the daily margins. To have an effective risk
management, it is levied when there is an excessive purchase or concentrated purchase position
in some scrips. It is also imposed if the member's financial position may not appear to be sound
compared to the market exposure.
The work stations of the members are deactivated generally on two occasions the member's
failure to pay the fee and violation of the trade restrictions given by the authorities. The decision
to deactivate is taken on case to-case basis.
28
Position monitoring
The position monitoring means watching of the member's trade position and the outstanding
exposure. This is carried out to ensure a smooth completion of pay-in and pay-out settlement.
Towards this purpose, various Market Monitoring Reports (MMR) are prepared from the
trading data. The Information System Department (ISD) of the exchange provides available
data on trade.
The trade exposure beyond a limit is monitored. The trade outstanding market position is R 10
million and above for A+ Bl group scrips. It is Rs 5 million and above in the case of B group
scrip. It is Rs 1 million and above for individual scrips. The market exposures of the members
are compared with the financial soundness of the members and their normal volume of
business. If the margin cover is not adequate against their outstanding position corrective steps
are taken. Ad hoc margins are imposed and details of members' dealings are obtained. The
member is advised to square up the outstanding position
Sometimes the members concentrate their trading only on certain scrips and it may end in price
rigging. The exchange takes appropriate surveillance against it. The judgment of risk is made
on the basis of fundamentals of the scrips, daily turnover and market transactions. The market
transactions are scrutinized by cross deals, negotiated deals for settlement, transactions for
international investors, Indian financial institutions (IFI), Mutual funds (MFS) and corporate
clients.
The exchange limits the curry forward settlement also. The limit the exchange is Rs 200 million
for the members at the end of settlement and Rs 300 million at the end of a day within a
settlement. Adherence to these limits has been closely monitored by the Surveillance
Department. The department also inspects certain dealings and books of accounts of the
members. Irregularities are referred to the Disciplinary Action Committee (DAC) of the
Exchange and Scrutiny Committee of the Exchange.
29
PROTECTION AGAINST DEFAULT
To protect the investors and the trading members against the default of another member several
funds have been set up by the stock exchange. They are discussed subsequently.
The fund has been set up with the objective of providing insurance to investors in the case of
default by a member. The investor is indemnified from default upto the preset limit Rs 3,00,000.
The corpus of the fund consists of 1) 2.5% of the listing fees 2) a levy on turnover at the rate
of Rs 1 for Rs 1 million of turnover 3) 50% of the interest earned on the one per cent of the
issue amount deposited by companies at the time of their public and rights issues for a three
months period as a safeguard against non-refund of excess subscription.
The BSE created the Trade Guarantee Fund in 1997. The main objectives ate given below
- To protect the interest of investors, promote the development and regulate the
secondary market.
The corpus of the fund is Rs 600 million which consists of contribution of the members and
exchange. If the corpus of the fund falls below Rs 600 million, the exchange has to inform the
SEBI and its members. The exchange is empowered to call for further contribution from the
members.
A defaulter's committee having 60% public representatives is set up to manage the fund. The
failure of the member to meet his obligation on pay-in-day to the Clearing House is informed
to Executive Director or the President of the Exchange. The President or Governing Board or
any two elected directors after giving two hours notice to the defaulting member declare him
30
as defaulter. Now, the Defaulters Committee has to pay the unpaid settlement dues of the
defaulters to the Clearing House before the pay-out. The Defaulters Committee has to make
timely payment to help the Exchange to follow strictly the settlement schedules. This
arrangement dispels the fear of postponement of the pay-outs. The TGF corpus was over Rs
1,600 crores in April 2000.
The BSE has a tie up with New India Assurance Company Limited. It provides an integrated
comprehensive insurance policy for the Exchange, its members and the Clearing House. This
cover is compulsory for all members whether active or inactive. The Clearing House has the
cover to the extent of Rs 16 billion. Individual member cover is limited to Rs 10 million. If the
loss is less than Rs 25,000 the insurance company is not liable to pay it and the loss in excess
of Rs 25,000 is paid by it. The insurance policy covers the infidelity of employees, loss of
securities of specified nature, electronic and computer crime, error and omission of professional
indemnity.
Investors' grievances
The Exchange has an active and efficient dispute resolution mechanism. It settles disputes
between investors and trading members and among the trading members also. The Investors
Service Cell is established to look into the investors' grievances against the listed companies
and stock brokers. If found guilty the exchange can delist the companies for specified periods.
According to the revised bye laws and regulations, the investor is now given the right to name
the arbitrator. This has enhanced the confidence of investors in arbitration mechanism. The
composition of the arbitration panel is according to the norms approved by SEBI.

CHAPTER - IV
In the traditional approach, investor's needs in terms of income and capital appreciation are
evaluated and appropriate securities are selected to meet the needs of the investor.
In the modern approach, portfolios are constructed to maximize the expected return for a given
level of risk. It views portfolio construction in terms of the expected return and the risk
associated with obtaining the expected return.
Traditional Approach
The traditional approach basically deals with two major decisions. They are:
Analysis of constraints
Determination of Objectives
35
Selection of Portfolio
Bond
Common stock
Diversification
Markowitz Approach
Markowitz gives more attention to the process of selecting the portfolio. The stocks are not
selected on the basis of need for income or appreciation. But the selection is based on the risk
and return analysis. Return includes the market return and dividend. They are assumed to be
indifferent towards the form of return.
From the list of stocks, the investor selects roughly some group of shares. For these stocks'
expected return and risk would be calculated. The investor is assumed to have the objective of
maximizing the expected return and minimizing the risk. Further, it is assumed that investors
would take up risk in a situation when adequately rewarded for it. This implies that individuals
would prefer the portfolio of highest expected return for a given level of risk.
In the modern approach, the final step is asset allocation process that is to choose the portfolio
that meets the requirement of the investor. The risk taker i.e. who are willing to accept a higher
probability of risk for getting the expected return would choose high risk portfolio Investor
with lower tolerance for risk would choose low level risk portfolio. The risk neutral investor
would choose the medium level risk portfolio.
36
Managing the portfolio
After establishing the asset allocation, the investor has to decide how to manage the portfolio
over time. He can adopt passive approach or active approach towards the management of the
portfolio.
In the passive approach the investor would maintain the percentage allocation for asset classes
and keep the security holdings within its place over the established holding period.
In the active approach the investor continuously assesses the risk and return of the securities
within the asset classes and changes them accordingly. He would be studying the risks (1)
market related (2) group related and (3) security specific and changes the components of the
portfolio to suit his objectives.
MARKOWITZ MODEL
The portfolio risk can be calculated with the help of the following formula.

SUGGESTIONS
• The 3rd portfolio (APOLLO, BAJAJ AUTO, HERO MOTORS, HUL) having high risk
constituting up to 32% and 4th portfolio (COAL INDIA, SBI, GRASIM, HCO) having
minimum risk constituting up to 5%. So, it is advisable to invest in either of these
portfolios when compared to remaining selected portfolios.
• APOLLO with 227.6 has high risk whereas ONGC with 5.121 has low risk among all
the remaining stocks. So if the investor is going for individual stock investment then
investment in Britania industries stocks is preferred to remaining (15th may 2023 to 15th
