EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Share price is the most important indicator which is readily available to the investors for
their decision to invest or not to invest in a particular share. Financial theories suggests
that share price changes are associated with changes in fundamental variables which are
relevant for share valuation like payout ratio, dividend yield, capital structure, earnings,
size of the firm and its growth. However the actual fundamental factors found to be
relevant may vary from market to market.
CHAPTER I
INTRODUCTION
INTRODUCTION
The literature on fundamental analysis on valuing stocks is perhaps one of the earliest
developments in the literature on security analysis. It perhaps sought to find an answer to
the age-old adage — ‘What explains stock prices?’ However, various limitations of the
models used in fundamental analysis led to the development of various alternative
valuation models.
Share price is the most important factor readily available to the investors for their
decision to invest not in a particular share. Theories suggest that shire price changes are
associated with changes in fundamental variables with changes in valuation like payout
ratio, dividend yield, capital structure, earnings, size of the firm and its growth.
Investors in shares usually make constant use of these various variables (or
gauging the relative merit of a script. These calculations are in no sense, final
determinants of equality and value but they are convenient indicators about the
performance of equity shares.
The decade of 1990s i.e., post reforms era has witnessed radical changes in public
policies in India that can be expected to have an effect on the environment within which
firms operate. The financial sector also experienced deregulatory initiatives in the form of
unfreezing of interest rare controls and public policy initiatives to encourage the growth
of financial markets—for both equity and debt (bonds) instruments. Decisions located
within the boundaries of the firm therefore, play a greater role in driving the equity share
prices, under the new policy regime.
Investment is concerned with the purchase and sale of financial assets and an
attempt of the investor to make logical decisions about the various alternatives in order to
earn suitable return.
The investor has various alternative options for investing savings to flow in
accordance with his preference. Savings are generally flown into investment with an
expectation of return, but savings kept as cash are unproductive (i.e., they do not earn any
reward). Savings arc invested into return yielding assets depending on their risk and
return characteristics.
EVOLUTION
Indian Stock Markets are one of the oldest in Asia. Its history dates back to nearly 200
years ago. The earliest records of security dealings in India are meager and obscure. The
East India Company was the dominant institution in those days and business in its loan
securities used to be transacted towards the close of the eighteenth century. By 1830,
business on corporate stocks and shares in Bank and Cotton presses took place in
Bombay. Though the trading list was broader in 1839, there were only half a dozen
brokers recognized by banks and merchants during 1840 and 1850.
At the end of the American Civil War, the brokers who thrived out of Civil War
in 1874, found a place in a street (now appropriately called as Dalal Street) where they
would conveniently assemble and transact business. In 1887, they formally established in
Bombay, the "Native Share and Stock Brokers' Association" (which is alternatively
known as .The Stock Exchange "). In 1895, the Stock Exchange acquired a premise in
the same street and it was inaugurated in 1899. Thus, the Stock Exchange at Bombay was
consolidated.
Ahmedabad gained importance next to Bombay with respect to cotton textile industry.
After 1880, many mills originated from Ahmedabad and rapidly forged ahead. As new
mills were floated, the need for a Stock Exchange at Ahmedabad was realized and in
1894, the brokers formed "The Ahmedabad Share and Stock Brokers' Association". The
cotton textile industry was to Bombay and Ahmedabad, the jute industry was to Calcutta.
In addition, tea and coal industries were the other major industrial groups in Calcutta.
After the Share Mania in 1861-65, in the 1870's there was a sharp boom in jute shares,
which was followed by a boom in tea shares in the 1880's and 1890's; and a coal boom
between 1904 and 1908. On June 1908, some leading brokers formed "The Calcutta
Stock Exchange Association".
In the beginning of the twentieth century, the industrial revolution was on the way
in India with the Swadeshi Movement; and with the inauguration of the Tata Iron and
Steel Company Limited in 1907, an important stage in industrial advancement under
Indian enterprise was reached. In 1920, the then demure city of Madras had the maiden
thrill of a stock exchange functioning in its midst, under the name and style of "The
Madras Stock Exchange" with 100 members. However, when boom faded, the number of
members stood reduced from 100 to three, by 1923, and so it went out of existence. In
1935, the stock market activity improved, especially in South India where there was a
rapid increase in the number of textile mills and many plantation companies were floated.
In 1937, a stock exchange was once again organized in Madras - Madras Stock
Exchange Association (Pvt) Limited. Lahore Stock Exchange was formed in 1934 and it
had a brief life. It was merged with the Punjab Stock Exchange Limited, which was
incorporated in 1936.
SECURITY ANALYSIS
FINANCIAL ANALYSIS
The most important quality for financial analysis is the passion to go for, go into and go
beyond numbers. Let us begin by unlearning some common misconceptions. Many
people relate financial analysis to number crunching. There are some others who have set
benchmarks for financial ratios and numbers, like a current ratio of 2 or debt to equity
ratio of 1, etc. Many have a tendency to calculate expected share price by multiplying
EPS with a normative P/E. Were financial analysis such simple arithmetic, we would
have given you a spreadsheet with pre-written formulae rather than this verbose piece.
You have some acquired knowledge and techniques and then it is all upon your judgment
and experience. Yes, numbers are important. Financial analysis starts with numbers. But
it does not end there.
Ratio
A ratio is nothing more than a simple division of two numbers. Often numbers by
themselves do not convey anything until they are related. In financial analysis, we need
qualitative information and try to read between the numbers. We have to ask all the right
questions. Over the years, there are some ratios, which have become more popular and
handy for rule of thumb analysis of financial statements. Our purpose in this note is not
deride them but to advice the reader to use them properly to derive the correct results.
While businesses claim to have multiple objectives such as market share, brand
building and even social objectives, at the end of the day, what really matters is how
much money one makes. All are strategies to maximize return on capital employed,
which is the one and only long term goal of all management. Obviously one will look at
money made in relation to one's investment. If you use 10 times as much capital and
make 5 times more money, it is of no good. If business A earns Rs10 on Rs 100
investment (10%), it is better than another business B that earns Rs50 on Rs1000 (5%).
To analyze the performance of any business, the key ratio is therefore Return on
Capital Employed (ROCE). We can further analyze this ratio using models popularly
know as The DuPont model.
Profit Margin.
We all know that profit is revenue minus cost. Each element of cost can be presented as a
% of revenue and at different levels of costs; we have different versions of profit, i.e.
EBIDTA, EBIT, EBT, etc. EBITDA margin is a good indicator of operational efficiency
of any company.
Even revenue can be broken up for the purpose of analysis, which is of use in a
multi product, multi division entity. Typically, analysts look at the relative share of other
income, because this item is where most Indian companies show extra ordinary profits to
boost their bottom line.
Return Ratios
There are two types of providers of capital, owners and lenders. As returns to lenders are
fixed, we don't have to calculate any return ratio on debt, as the same is predetermined.
From owners' perspective, the key ratio is return on net worth. Net worth represents
owners' funds, paid up capital and retained profits called as reserves. As an owner, you
would also be interested in knowing how much return is being generated by the total
capital employed. Capital employed consists of net worth plus debt, i.e. owned and owed
money. So when we calculate this ratio we have to add back the cost of debt, i.e. adjust
for interest expenses. This ratio is calculated primarily on pre-tax basis and it is
equivalent to EBIT (Earnings before Interest and Tax) divided by total capital employed.
If we want to calculate it on post-tax basis, we will have to add interest adjusted for tax
i.e.
EBT + interest*(1-T)/ capital employed, where T is the tax rate.
the company has issued preference capital, then one must remove preference dividend to
reflect what belongs to the common equity holders only) divided by number of
outstanding shares.
One variant of this ratio of cash earnings per share, which is cash, profited
divided by number of outstanding shares. Cash profit is equivalent to profit after tax plus
depreciation and other non-cash charges.
Similarly, you can calculate cash profit per share, sales per share, etc. This will
facilitate valuation and comparison with other companies. The most famous of the
valuation ratios is the Price earnings ratio (P/E ratio), which the current market is priced
of the share divided by the earnings per share.
Comparison
One can make comparisons across years in terms of trends in margins, growth or
comparison across companies within a sector or across a sector, by comparing large
companies in both the sectors and sector aggregates. And firms of the same industry are
compared on various parameters. One can look at aggregate numbers of one industry and
compare them with aggregate numbers of another industry to understand the differences
in performance of various industries. For instance, if you look at the consumer durable
industry which might be generating a return on networth of 8-10%, whereas software
industry may be generating a return on networth of 40-50%. So one can easily conclude
that software industry is doing significantly better than the consumer durables industry.
MACROECONOMIC ANALYSIS
To determine the proper price for a firm’s stock, the security analyst must forecast the
dividend and earnings that can be expected from the firm. This is the heart of
fundamental analysis – that is, the analysis of determinants of value such as earnings
prospects. Ultimately, the business success of the firm determines the dividends it can
pay to shareholders and the price it will command in the stock market. Because the
prospects of the firm are tied to those of the broader economy however, fundamental
analysis must consider the business environment in which the firm operates. For some
firms, macroeconomic and industry circumstances might have a greater influence on
profits than the firm’s relative performance within its industry. In other words, investors
need to keep the big economic picture in mind.
Therefore, in analyzing a firm’s prospects it often makes sense to start with the
broad economic environment, examining the state of the aggregate economy and even the
international economy. From there, one considers the implications of the outside
environment on the industry in which the firm operates. Finally, the firm position within
the industry is examined.
The top down analysis of a firm’s prospects must start with the global economy. The
international economy might affect a firm’ exports prospects, the price competition it
faces from competitors, or the profits it makes on investments abroad. Certainly, despite
the fact that the economies of most countries are linked in a global macro economy, there
is considerable variation in the economic performance across countries at any time. It
includes factors like growth rates of respective nations, currency exchange rate, global
industrial output etc.
The macroeconomy is the environment in which all firms operate. The importance of
macroeconomy is determining investment performance to forecasts earnings per share. It
includes Gross Domestic Product, Employment, Inflation, Interest rates, Budget Deficit,
etc
A demand shock is an event that affects the demand for goods and services in the
economy. Examples of positive demand shock are reduction in tax rates, increase in
money supply, increases in government spending or increases in foreign export demand.
A supply shock is an event that influences production capacity and costs.
Examples of supply shocks are changes in the prices of imported oil; freezes,
floods, or droughts that might destroy large quantities of agricultural crops; changes in
educational level of economy’s workforce; or changes in the wage rate at which the labor
force is willing to work.
Business Cycles
INDUSTRY ANALYSIS
Industry analysis is important for the same reason that macroeconomic analysis. Is not
surprisingly, industry group exhibits considerable dispersion in their stock market
performance. Even small investors can easily take positions in industry performance by
using mutual funds with an industry focus.
Defining an industry
Once analyst forecast the state of macro economic it is necessary to determine the
implication of that forecast for specific industries. Not all industries are equally sensitive
to the business cycle. For example the cigarette industry is largely independent of the
business cycle demand for cigarette doesn’t seem effected by the state of the
macroeconomy in a meaningful way. It is a matter of habit in contrast, are automobile
production is highly volatile. In recession, customers can prolong the lives of their cars
until their income is higher.
Three factors will determine the sensitivity of a firms earnings to the business cycle.
• Sensitivity of sales
• Financial average

PROBLEM IDENTIFICATION
REVIEW OF LITERATURE
A number of empirical studies have been conducted in India and abroad on relationship
between market price of shares and explanatory variables namely, dividend per share,
earnings per share, book value per share, size, cover, return on capital employed and
payout ratio.
This study examines the empirical relationship of explanatory variables namely, dividend
per share, earnings per share, book value per share, size, cover, return on capital
employed and payout ratio on the market price of shares in the post reform era. The
relationship between independent and dependent variables of 160 companies is studied
over a period of five years spanning from 2001 to 2005. The results reveal that earnings
per share and book value per share are important determinants of share price as they are
indices healthy financial position of companies. Dividend per share is the important
indicator of share price which shows that the companies should adopt a liberal dividend
policy to activate the primary as well as secondary market. A high dividend rate may also
help in increasing the market price and result in high capital appreciation to share holders
as depicted by the payout ratio and cover. Price ratio investor reflects investor
expectations of growth in a firm’s earnings that vary from industry to industry.
The present study deals with fundamental analysis of share valuation as it focuses on
factors relating to company. This section explains in detail the objectives, period, sample
and database of the study.
The data employed in the study relates to manufacturing sector of companies listed on
Bombay Stock Exchange. 160 companies covering the following industries have been
finally selected for the purpose of the study
Table 1
General Engineering 28
Cotton Textile 23
Chemical 33
Electrical 28
Miscellaneous 22
Total 160
While selecting the sample of the companies from six industries, the following criteria is
adopted
The necessary financial data required lot calculating the measures of dependent and
independent variable pertaining to all the years 2001-2005 is available.
The companies did not skip dividend for any two successive years are included
the sample
The companies whose average earnings per share of any three successive years
are not zero or negative is also considered.
Further only those companies whose price data is available are retained in the
sample size.
Regression model
The linear multiple regression model has been applied primarily to minimize the problem
of multicollinearity. This technique of multivariate analysis was selected because it is the
most appropriate tool for evaluating the individual and combined effect of a set of
independent variables on dependent variables. The significance of the coefficient of a set
of independent variables was tested at 1% and 5% by computing t-values. To determine
the proportion of explained variation in dependent variable, coefficient of multiple
determination (R2) was worked out. The overall significance of regression equation was
tested with the help F-values.
The forces of demand and supply in the market determine the market price of the share.
Where PH is the highest market price, PL is the lowest market price during the year,
which relates to‘t’ period.
It is also known as net asset value per share because it measures the amount of assets,
which the corporation has on behalf of each equity share BV shows the net investment
per share made in the business by the share holder. It is calculated as follows:
Cover (C)
It shows the extent to which the dividend per share is protected by the earnings of the
company. Cover has a negative relationship with market price. It is calculated as follows
Dividend
Or
It refers to the actual amount of dividend (gross) declared per share. The net profit after
taxes belong to shareholders but the income that they really receive is the amount of
earnings distributed and paid as cash dividend. The dividends generally influence the
share price in positive direction as depicted by earlier studies.
The Equity shareholders are the sole claimants to the net earnings of the corporation after
making payment of dividend to the preference shareholders. The significance of this ratio
flows from the fact that higher the earnings per share the more is the scope for a higher
rate of dividend and also of retained earnings, to build up the inner strength of the
company. Therefore, a higher EPS would increase the market price and vice versa. It is
calculated as follows:
EPS= Net Income after interest, income tax & preference dividend
Dividend Payout shows the percentage share of the net profits after taxes and preference
dividend paid out as dividend to equity shareholders. It can be calculated by dividing the
total dividend paid to the equity shareholders by the total profits/ earnings available for
them. Alternatively, it can be found out by dividing DPS by EPS. . This predicts direct
relation between payout ratio and the price-earning multiple. Conversely it means that
there is an inverse relation between payout ratio and share price changes.
Or
P/E ratio expresses the relationship between the market price of a company’s share and
it5s earnings per share. It indicates the extent to which the earnings of each share are
covered by its price. The ratio helps an investor to make an approximate calculation of
the time required to recover his investment in a company’s share. The price ratio has a
positive relationship with market price (Dixit, 1986). It was calculated as follows:
The return on investment indicates the efficiency with which a company utilizes funds
invested in it. This ratio reveals how well the resources of a firm are being used, higher
the ratio better are the results. The inter comparison of this ratio determines whether the
investments are attractive or not as the investor would like to invest only where the return
is higher. It generally has positive relationship with marker price of equity share. It is
computed as follows
Size (S)
The size of the firm if captured through total capital employed is expected to influence
the share prices positively as large firms are better diversified than small ones and thus
are less risky (Benishy, 1461). Atiase (1985) showed that as the size of the firm increases,
their share price volatility declines. The large size firms are expected to have higher
market values of their shares. For studying the influence of size on equity share price,
size may be measured in terms of total assets, turnover paid up capital, net worth, sales,
number of shares outstanding, etc. The amount of total assets is taken as a measure of
size because it represents the total resources at the command of the (Sachdeva, VP L994).
Conclusions
The results reveal that Earnings per share and book value per share are the important
determinants of share price as they are an index of the sound financial position of the
companies. Dividend per share is important determinant of the share price which shows
that companies should adopt a liberal dividend policy to activate the primary as well as
secondary market. A high dividend rate may also help in increasing the market price and
result in high capital appreciation to the shareholders as depicted by payout ratio and
cover. Price-earnings ratio too showed investors expectation about the growth in the
firm’s earnings that varied from industry to industry.
In this paper, an attempt has been made to explore the possibility of explaining the P/E
(Price- Earning Ratio) of Indian stocks it terms of certain key variables through a
decomposition study. The statistical model being used is the well known as ‘Whitbeck
kisor Model’ the feasibility of the model has been tested out on the variables as used as
by the authors (Whitbeck and kisor 1963) i.e. earnings per share, payout ratio and
coefficient of variation in explaining variation in stock prices. The findings revealed that
the dividend payout ratio is by far the single most important factor affecting stock prices,
followed by earning per share. Coefficient of variation in earnings per share has a very
weak influence on stock prices.
Research Methodology
This study intends to find a relationship by explaining the P/E of stocks in terms of
certain independent variables with the help of multivariate regression analysis. After
identifying the variables responsible for affecting P/F, a causal relationship between the
dependent and independent variables will he obtained. The significance of each of the -
independent variables together with the overall validity model will he statistically tested.
Then we will attempt to find the difference between a models based on historical growth
in earnings per share vis-à-vis forecasted growth in earnings per share, other variables
remaining the same. The next part will carry out a valuation study to see the robustness of
the model,
Annual growth in EPS is arrived at by regressing the logarithmic (Ln) values of the
actual EPS The slope of the line of best fit obtained through the scatter diagram shows
the normalized’ growth. In the Indian context, it is very difficult to fix a very rigid time
frame for deriving the EPS growth, mainly because of frequent dilution and / or
adjustments in equity, which indirectly suppresses the EPS growth. To overcome this
difficulty we took the sample time frame in which the growth path had a coefficient of
determination (r2) exceeding 80%. All the 30 stocks fulfilled this criterion. The
prospective DPR was estimated on the ratio of dividend payout in 1999 is actual EPS in
the same year. The coefficient of variation (CV) of historical growth in EPS was
calculated by dividing the standard deviation of EPS by its arithmetic mean,
The multivariate regression analysis carried out with P/E as the dependent
variable and the annual growth in EPS. Dividend Payout Ratio (DPR), and coefficient of
variation in EPS as the independent variables, revealed the following results
Conclusion
In this paper, we have attempted to test the validity of the - Kisor Model” the Indian
context, and as such we did not in any way try to modify the original model. It is evident
from the results of the above study that the P/E Model as proposed by Whitbeck and
Kisor (1963), is valid in the Indian context, though to a much lesser extent A look at the
individual variables revealed that the Dividend Payout Ratio (DPR) is by far the single
most important factor that affects P/E of stocks in India. Growth in earnings per share
(EPS) was also found to he relevant, although to a much lesser extent. The only
parameter that was found to have very little significance was Coefficient of variation in
earnings per share (CV) and it could have been excluded from the model without
affecting its validity to any great extent.
Monica Singhania*
In the last one and a half decades, many emerging capital markets have undergone drastic
changes in terms of market microstructure changes, specifically in secondary markets.
One of the policy concerns is the factors determining equity prices in markets. The author
studies the various determinants of equity share prices with reference to Indian stock
market. The mean values have shown that during the period 1997 to 2004, the market
price was far lower due to various uncertainties prevailing in the country.
The correlation analysis shows positive significant (1%) association of only price
earnings ratio with market price. Book value, dividend cover, DPS, EL and growth are
positive but insignificant. At the same time, there is negative insignificant association of
yield with Market Price (MP). While regression analysis depicts that book value,
dividend per share, earnings per share and price earnings ratio are significant
determinants, whereas, dividend cover and yield are insignificant with negative value.
Growth remained insignificant but with positive value.
Finally it can be concluded from correlation and regression analysis that price
earnings ratio, earnings per share, book value and dividend cover are the variables, which
contributed the most in determining share prices followed by dividend per share and
yield.
Research Methodology
The study is based primarily on the data collected from the CMIE (Center for Monitoring
of the Indian Economy) Prowess database. The data for the sample companies is obtained
from CMIE is supplemented with information from various financial dailies, magazine
reports, industry reports, annual reports of the companies, etc.
The data used in the study are related to those manufacturing companies listed on the
Bombay Stock Exchange (BSE) for which the data is available in the Prowess database.
The analysis is confined to BSE listed companies only because all the listed companies
are required to follow the norms set by SEBI for financial reporting. Another reason for
the selection was the fact that BSE has the second largest number of domestic quoted
companies on any stock exchange in the world after NYSE, and has more quoted
companies than either the London or the Tokyo stock exchange. The period of the study
is from 1997 to 2004. There are basic reasons behind selection of this period as period of
the study. This period relates to the post-Liberalization era for the Indian economy which
is more relevant for study of corporate behavior. Also, this is the period for which
maximum financial information is available in the database.
Statistical Analysis
The data collected relating to the sample companies is analyzed using multiple regression
to study the impact of explanatory variables on equity share prices (i.e., market price). On
the basis of the aforesaid analysis, a suggestive framework is built which may assist in
making future predictions regarding behavior of market price of equity shares.
Where,
BV = Book Value,
DY=Dividend Yield.
Mean Values:
Mean values of the dependent and independent variables have been computed. The mean
values are co with the values of the ground data of the different variables over the period
of study and to analyze the effect of explanatory variables on the dependent variables.
Standard Deviation
Standard deviation of dependent and explanatory variables has also been computed to
examine the variation in various variables from their means values and also to analyze the
consistency and homogeneity in data collection.
Correlation
The analysis of the degree of linear association between various variables used was
carried out with the help of Karl Pearson’s correlation method. The lower the value of ‘r’,
the lower is the degree of linear relationship between the variables. The value of’ ‘r’
needs to be interpreted accurately because a low value of ‘r’ may be due to the non-linear
relationship between these variables. Also the high degree of correlation does not imply
cause and effect relationship between two variables. The significance of the correlation
coefficient is tested with the help of t-test distribution at 1% and 5% level of
significance.
Regression
A linear multiple regression in has been selected to measure the combined effects of
explanatory variables on the dependent variable.
Y = bo +b1X1+b2X2 +...+bnXn
where,
Y = Dependent Variable,
The statistical significance of regression coefficients was worked out and tested
by applying ‘t’ test. The coefficient of determination R2 was computed to determine the
percentage variation in the dependent variables.
Also with a view to account for the loss of degree of freedom resulting from the
inclusion of additional explanatory variables, the adjusted R2 was computed. The ‘F’
value was also computed to test the significance of the R2 with ‘F’ distribution at 1% and
5% significance level.
Research Design
The interpretation and significance of the variable to a very large extent depends upon
how the various dependent and independent variables are measured.
The average price of the share derived from the financial year high and low has been
considered as market price for this study.
Where, High Price is Highest market price during the financial year and Low Price
Lowest market price during the financial year
EPS is defined as the ratio of the profit after tax of the company for any financial year
after payment of preference dividend if any to the number of shares outstanding as on the
last day of the financial year.

MP is average price of the sate derived from the financial year high and
low for company.
The mean values have shown that during the period 1997 to 2004, the market price was
far lower due to various uncertainties prevailing at the time in the country. The
correlation analysis shows positive significant (1%) association of only price earnings
ratio with market price. Book value, dividend cover, DPS, EPS, and growth rate are
positive but insignificant. At the same time there is negative insignificant association of
yield with market price (MP). While regression analysis depicts that book value, dividend
per share, cover and yield are insignificant with negative value. Finally it can be
concluded that from correlation and regression analysis that price earnings ratio, book
value and dividend cover were the variables which contributed most in determining the
share prices followed by dividend per share and yield.

STATISTICAL PROCEDURE
To Analyze The Determinants Of Equity The Following Model Has Been
Used.
The forces of demand and supply in the market determine the market price of the share.
Where PH is the highest market price, PL is the lowest market price during the year,
which relates to‘t’ period.
It refers to the book value of total shareholders fund. It is extracted from the balance
sheet of the companies.
It refers to the actual amount of dividend (gross) declared per share. The net profit after
taxes belong to shareholders but the income that they really receive is the amount of
earnings distributed and paid as cash dividend. The dividends generally influence the
share price in positive direction as depicted by earlier studies.
The Equity shareholders are the sole claimants to the net earnings of the corporation after
making payment of dividend to the preference shareholders. The significance of this ratio
flows from the fact that higher the earnings per share the more is the scope for a higher
rate of dividend and also of retained earnings, to build up the inner strength of the
company. Therefore, a higher EPS would increase the market price and vice versa.
It is calculated as follows:
EPS =Net Income after interest, income tax & preference dividend
Dividend Payout shows the percentage share of the net profits after taxes and preference
dividend paid out as dividend to equity shareholders. It can be calculated by dividing the
total dividend paid to the equity shareholders by the total profits/ earnings available for
them. Alternatively, it can be found out by dividing DPS by EPS. . This predicts direct
relation between payout ratio and the price-earning multiple. Conversely it means that
there is an inverse relation between payout ratio and share price changes.
Or
P ratio expresses the relationship between the market price of a company’s share and its
earnings per share. It indicates the extent to which the earnings of each share are covered
by its price. The ratio helps an investor to make an approximate calculation of the time
required to recover his investment in a company’s share. The price ratio has a positive
relationship with market price. It was calculated as follows:
The return on investment indicates the efficiency with which a company utilizes funds
invested in it. This ratio reveals how well the resources of a firm are being used, higher
the ratio better are the results. The inter comparison of this ratio determines whether the
investments are attractive or not as the investor would like to invest only where the return
is higher. It generally has positive relationship with marker price of equity share. It is
computed as follows
Size (S)
The size of the firm if captured through total market capitalization or total assets. It is
expected to influence the share prices positively as large firms are better diversified than
small ones and thus are less risky. For studying the influence of size on equity share
price, size may be measured in terms of total assets, number of shares outstanding, etc. In
the present study gross block is taken to measure the size of the company.
Sales Growth(G)
Growth is measured in terms of net sales in the present study.
G = St-St-1

CHAPTER IV
ANALYSIS AND
INTERPRETATION
OF DATA
To determine the equity share prices the explanatory variables namely, dividend per
share, earnings per share, dividend payout ratio, return on capital employed, price earning
ratio, book value, growth and size these variables are treated as independent variable.
And the market price is considered to be dependent variable. For the determinants of
equity share prices the data has been collected for four different sectors for five years
from 2002-2006.
Regression Model :
The regression analysis is concerned with the study of dependence of one variable, the
dependent variable on one or more other variables, the explanatory variables, with a view
to estimating and/or predicting the population mean or average value of former in terms
of the known or fixed ( in repeated sampling) values of the latter.
The linear multiple regression approach has been selected to measure the
combined effects of explanatory variables on dependent variable. The general form of
multiple regression estimating equation is:
The linear multiple regression approach has been applied primarily to minimize
the problem of multicollinearity. This technique of multivariate analysis was selected
because it is the most appropriate tool evaluating the individual and combined effect of
set of independent variables on dependent variable
significance level. The overall significance of regression equation was tested with the
help of F-values
R2 = ESS Or R2 = 1 - RSS
TSS TSS
Where,
RSS is Residual Sum of Squares
TSS is Total Sum of Squares
ESS is Explained Sum of Squares
2. F-Test
An F-test is any statistical test in which the test statistic has an F-distribution if
the null hypothesis is true. A great variety of hypotheses in applied statistics are tested by
F-tests. The hypothesis is that the means of multiple normally distributed populations, all
having the same standard deviation, are equal. This is perhaps the most well-known of
hypotheses tested by means of an F-test, and the simplest problem in the analysis of
variance (ANOVA).
The F-distribution is formed by the ratio of two independent chi-square variables
divided by their respective degrees of freedom. Since F is formed by chi-square, many of
the chi-square properties carry over to the F distribution.
• The F-values are all non-negative
• The distribution is non-symmetric
• The mean is approximately 1
• There are two independent degrees of freedom, one for the numerator,
and one for the denominator.
• There are many different F distributions, one for each pair of degrees of
freedom.
NOTE: It is found that there is a high correlation between size (gross block) and
market capitalization at 5% level of significance. To avoid the problem of
multicollinearity both the variables are excluded from the research for the further
analysis
Correlations
Interpretation:
There is a significant correlation between Dividend & ROCE, Dividend & Book
Value and Dividend & EPS at 1% level of significance. Excluding that no other variables
are correlated. There would not be any problem of multicollinearity because of linear
multiple regression model being used.

5% level. The variables Dividend and Payout are found to be insignificant with negative
t-values.
Correlations
Interpretation:
There is a significant correlation between Payout & EPS and EPS, Dividend & Book
value at 1% level of significance. Excluding that no other variables are correlated. There
would not be any problem of multicollinearity because of linear multiple regression
model being used.

a. Dependent Variable: AVGPRICE
Correlations
Interpretation:
There is a significant correlation between Dividend & Book Value at 1% level of
significance. Except that no other variables are correlated. There would not be any
problem of multicollinearity analysis because of linear multiple regression model being
used for the further analysis.

INTERPRETATION:
The regression analysis for aggregate of industries for all the year, clearly depicts
Book value, ROCE and EPS are the most important determinants of market price
among the among all the variables with a high positive values at 1 % level of
significance. At the same time there is a positive significant relationship between PE
ratio and market price of share at 5% level of significance. Where as Dividend Per
Share, Payout ratio and Growth remains insignificant with a negative values. They do
not have any influence on the market share price.
INTERPRETATION:
The regression analysis for various industries in aggregate depicts that there earnings per
share(EPS) and price earning ratio(P/E R) are the significant determinants of equity
share price with highly positive t – values. Dividend is significant at a low positive t-
value. Where as Book value (BV), Growth (G), Return on Capital Employed
(ROCE) and Payout has no any influence on the market share price. They are
insignificant with negative t-values.
Except for automobile industry, the R2 ranges from 13.2% to 56.6%. it means less
than 56% of variation in dependent variable is explained by the independent variables.
