PREFACE
The project on Capital market is an attempt to study an overall primary market and secondary market of India. It helped to know and study the parameters opted by all the Capital market and the companies who are operating themselves under the rules and regulation of Capital Market. The performance of Capital Market has registered a significant upward in recent times. Right from the beginning Capital Market attract every person as it has become common to see car on road every day and being a student of marketing I learnt a lot from this project and it would helped me a lot in making my career.

CONCEPT OF CAPITAL MARKET

coupon bond and 6% notional 10 year bond. The past decade in many ways has been remarkable for securities market in India.n It has grown exponentially as measured in terms of amount raised from the market,number of stock exchanges and other intermediaries, the number of listed stocks,market capitalisation, trading volumes and turnover on stock exchanges, and investor population. Along with this growth, the profiles of the investors, issuers and intermediaries have changed significantly. The market has witnessed several institutional changes resulting in drastic reduction in transaction costs and significant improvements in efficiency, transparency, liquidity and safety. In a short span of time, Indian derivatives market has got a place in list of top global exchanges. In single stock futures category, the Futures Industry Association (FIA) placed NSE in second position in the year 2000.
Introduction
The market for long-term securities like bonds, equity stocks and preferred stocks is divided into primary market and 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. In the secondary market, the investors can sell and buy securities. Stock markets predominantly deal in the equity shares. Debt instruments like bonds and debentures are also traded in the stock market. Well-regulated and active stock market promotes capital formation. Growth of the primary market depends on the secondary market. The health of the economy is reflected by the growth of the stock market. Companies raise funds to finance their projects through various methods. The promoters can bring their own money or borrow from the financial institutions or mobilize capital by issuing securities. The funds may be raised through issue of fresh shares at par or premium,

The main objectives of a capital issue are given below: To promote a new company To expand an existing company To diversify the production To meet the regular working capital requirements To capitalize the reverses Securities markets provide a channel for allocation of savings to those who have a productive need for them. As a result, the savers and investors are not constrained by their individual abilities, but by the economys abilities to invest and save respectively, which inevitably enhances savings and investment in the economy.
Market Segments
The securities market has two interdependent and inseparable segments: the primary and the secondary market. The primary market provides the channel for creation of new securities through issuance of financial instruments by public companies as well as Governments and Government agencies and bodies whereas the secondary market helps the holders of these financial instruments to sale for exiting from the investment. The price signals, which subsume all information about the issuer and his business including associated risk, generated in the secondary market, help the primary market in allocation of funds. The primary market issuance is done either through public issues or private placement. A public issue does not limit any entity in investing while in private placement, the issuance is done to select people. In terms of the Companies Act, 1956, an issue becomes public if it results in allotment to more than 50 persons. This means an issue resulting in allotment to less than 50 persons is private placement.
Current scenario of Capital Market in India. There are two major types of issuers who issue securities. The corporate entities issue mainly debt and equity instruments (shares, debentures, etc.), while the governments (central and state governments) issue debt securities (dated securities, reasury bills). The secondary market enables participants who hold securities to adjust their holdings in response to changes in their assessment of risk and return. They also sell securities for cash to meet their liquidity needs. The exchanges do not provide facility for spot trades in a strict sense. Closest to spot market is the cash market in exchanges where settlement takes place after some time. Trades taking place over a trading cycle (one day under rolling settlement) are settled together after a certain time. All the 23 stock exchanges in the country provide facilities for trading of corporate securities. Trades executed on NSE only are cleared and settled by a clearing corporation which provides novation and settlement guarantee. Nearly 100% of the trades in capital market segment are settled through demat delivery. NSE also provides a formal trading platform for trading of a wide range of debt securities including government securities in both retail and wholesale mode. NSE also provides trading in derivatives of equities, interest rate as well indices. In derivatives market (F&O market segment of NSE), standardized contracts are traded for future settlement. These futures can be on a basket of securities like an index or an individual security. In case of options, securities are traded for conditional future delivery. There are two types of options a put option permits the owner to sell a security to the writer of options at a predetermined price while a call option permits the owner to purchase a security from the writer of the option at a predetermined price. These options can also be on individual stocks or basket of stocks like index. Two exchanges, namely NSE and the Stock Exchange, Mumbai (BSE) provide trading of derivatives of securities. Today the market participants have the flexibility of choosing from a basket of products like: Equities Bonds issued by both Government and Companies Futures on benchmark indices as well as stocks Options on benchmark indices as well as stocks Futures on interest rate products like Notional 91-day T-Bills, 10 year notional zero Ishan Institute of Management & Technology 12
Current scenario of Capital Market in India. Reforms in the securities market, particularly the establishment and empowerment of SEBI, market determined allocation of resources, screen based nation-wide trading, dematerialization and electronic transfer of securities, rolling settlement and ban on deferral products, sophisticated risk management and derivatives trading, have greatly improved the regulatory framework and efficiency of trading and settlement. Indian market is now comparable to many developed markets in terms of a number of qualitative parameters.
Products and Participants

Financial markets facilitate the reallocation of savings from savers to entrepreneurs. Savings are linked to investments by a variety of intermediaries through a range of complex financial products called securities which is defined in the Securities Contracts (Regulation) Act, 1956 to include shares, bonds, scrips, stocks or other marketable securities of like nature in or of any incorporate company or body corporate, government securities, derivatives of securities, units of collective investment scheme, interest and rights in securities, security receipt or any other instruments so declared by the central government.

Current scenario of Capital Market in India. It is not that the users and suppliers of funds meet each other and exchange funds for securities. It is difficult to accomplish such double coincidence of wants. The amount of funds supplied by the supplier may not be the amount needed by the user. Similarly, the risk, liquidity and maturity characteristics of the securities issued by the issuer may not match preference of the supplier. In such cases, they incur substantial search costs to find each other. Search costs are minimised by the intermediaries who match and bring the suppliers and users of funds together. These intermediaries may act as agents to match the needs of users and suppliers of funds for a commission, help suppliers and users in creation and sale of securities for a fee or buy the securities issued by users and in turn, sell their own securities to suppliers to book profit. It is, thus, a misnomer that securities market disintermediates by establishing a direct relationship between the savers and the users of funds. The market does not work in a vacuum; it requires services of a large variety of intermediaries. The disintermediation in the securities market is in fact an intermediation with a difference, it is a risk-less intermediation, where the ultimate risks are borne by the savers and not the intermediaries. A large variety and number of intermediaries provide intermediation services in the Indian securities market. The securities market has essentially three categories of participants, namely the issuers of securities, investors in securities and the intermediaries and products include equities, bonds and derivatives. The issuers and investors are the consumers of services rendered by the intermediaries while the investors are consumers (they subscribe for and trade in securities) of securities issued by issuers. In pursuit of providing a product to meet the needs of each investor and issuer, the intermediaries churn out more and more complicated products. They educate and guide them in their dealings and bring them together. Those who receive funds in exchange for securities and those who receive securities in exchange for funds often need the reassurance that it is safe to do so. This reassurance is provided by the law and by custom, often enforced by the regulator. The regulator develops fair market practices and regulates the conduct of issuers of securities and the intermediaries so as to protect the interests of suppliers of funds. The regulator ensures a high standard of service from intermediaries and supply of quality securities and non-manipulated demand for them in the market. Ishan Institute of Management & Technology 14
Current scenario of Capital Market in India. The past decade in many ways has been remarkable for securities market in India. It has grown exponentially as measured in terms of amount raised from the market, number of stock exchanges and other intermediaries, the number of listed stocks, market capitalisation, trading volumes and turnover on stock exchanges, and investor population. Along with this growth, the profiles of the investors, issuers and intermediaries have changed significantly. The market has witnessed fundamental institutional changes resulting in drastic reduction in transaction costs and significant improvements in efficiency, transparency and safety.
DEPENDENCECAPITAL MARKET
Three main sets of entities depend on securities market. While the corporates and governments raise resources from the securities market to meet their obligations, the households invest their savings in the securities.
Corporate Sector
The 1990s witnessed emergence of the securities market as a major source of finance for trade and industry. A growing number of companies are accessing the securities market rather than depending on loans from FIs/banks. The corporate sector is increasingly depending on external sources for meeting its funding requirements. There appears to be growing preference for direct financing (equity and debt) to indirect financing (bank loan) within the external sources. According to CMIE data, the share of capital market based instruments in resources raised externally increased to 53% in 1993-94, but declined thereafter to 33% by 1999-00 and further to 21% in 2001-02. In the sector-wise shareholding pattern of companies listed on NSE, it is observed that on an average the promoters hold more than 55% of total shares. Though the non-promoter holding is about 44%, Indian public held only 17% and the public float (holding by FIIs, MFs, Indian public) is at best 25%. There is not much difference in the shareholding pattern of companies in different sectors. Strangely, 63% of shares in companies in media and entertainment sector are held by Ishan Institute of Management & Technology 15
Current scenario of Capital Market in India. private corporate bodies though the requirement of public offer was relaxed to 10% for them. The promoter holding is not strikingly high in respect of companies in the IT and telecom sectors where similar relaxation was granted.
Governments
Along with increase in fiscal deficits of the governments, the dependence on market borrowings to finance fiscal deficits has increased over the years. During the year 1990-91, the state governments and the central government financed nearly 14% and 18% respectively of their fiscal deficit by market borrowing. In percentage terms, dependence of the state governments on market borrowing did not increase much during the decade 1991-2001. In case of central government, it increased to 77.6% by 2002-03.
Households
According to RBI data, household sector accounted for 82.4% of gross domestic savings during 2001-02. They invested 38% of financial savings in deposits, 33% in insurance/provident funds, 11% on small savings, and 8% in securities, including government securities and units of mutual funds during 2001- 02. Thus the fixed income bearing instruments are the most preferred assets of the household sector. Their share in total financial savings of the household sector witnessed an increasing trend in the recent past and is estimated at 82.4% in 2001- 02. In contrast, the share of financial savings of the household sector in securities (shares, debentures, public sector bonds and units of UTI and other mutual funds and government securities) is estimated to have gone down from 22.9% in 1991-92 to 4.3% in 2000-01, which increased to 8% in 2001-02. Though there was a major shift in the saving pattern of the household sector from physical assets to financial assets and within financial assets, from bank deposits to securities, the trend got reversed in the recent past due to high real interest rates, prolonged subdued conditions in the secondary market, lack of confidence by the issuers in the success of issue process as well as of investors in the credibility of the issuers and the systems and poor performance of mutual funds. The portfolio of household sector remains heavily weighted in favour of physical assets and fixed income bearing instruments.
Investor Population
The Society for Capital Market Research and Development carries out periodical surveys of household investors to estimate the number of investors. Their first survey carried out in 1990 placed the total number of share owners at 90-100 lakh. Their second survey estimated the number of share owners at around 140-150 lakh as of mid-1993. Their latest survey estimates the number of shareowners at around 2 crore at 1997 end, after which it remained stagnant up to the end of 1990s. The bulk of increase in number of investors took place during 1991-94 and tapered off thereafter. 49% of the share owners at the end of 2000 had, for the first time, entered the market before the end of 1990, 44% entered during 1991-94, 6.3% during 1995-96 and 0.8% since 1997. The survey attributes such tapering off to persistent depression in the share market and investors bad experience with many unscrupulous company promoters and managements.
Distribution of Investors
The Society for Capital Market Research & Development estimates that 15% of urban households and only 0.5-1.0% of semi-urban and rural households own shares. It is estimated that 4% of all households own shares.

An indirect, but very authentic source of information about distribution of investors is the data base of beneficial accounts with the depositories. By February 2003, there were 3 million beneficial accounts with the National Securities Depository Limited (NSDL). The state-wise distribution of beneficial accounts with NSDL expected Maharashtra and Gujarat account for nearly 45% of total beneficial accounts.
CAPITAL MARKET AT A GLANCE

Primary market
Stocks available for the first time are offered through new issue market. The issuer may be a new company. These issues may be of new type or the security used in the past. In the new issue market the issuer can be considered as a manufacturer. The issuing houses, investment bankers and brokers act as the channel of distribution for the new issues. They take the responsibility of selling the stocks to the public. A total of Rs. 2,520,179 million were raised by the government and corporate sector during 2002-03 as against Rs. 2,269,110 million during the preceding year. Government raised about two third of the total resources, with central government alone raising nearly Rs. 1,511,260 million. Corporate Securities Ishan Institute of Management & Technology 18
Current scenario of Capital Market in India. Average annual capital mobilization from the primary market, which used to be about Rs.70 crore in the 1960s and about Rs.90 crore in the 1970s, increased manifold during the 1980s, with the amount raised in 1990-91 being Rs. 4,312 crore. It received a further boost during the 1990s with the capital raised by non-government public companies rising sharply to Rs. 26,417 crore in 1994-95. The capital raised which used to be less than 1% of gross domestic saving (GDS) in the 1970s increased to about 13% in 1992-93. In real terms, the capital raised increased 4 times between 1990-91 and 1994-95. During 1994-95, the amount raised through new issues of securities from the securities market accounted for about four-fifth of the disbursements by FIs. Issuers have shifted focus to other avenues for raising resources like private placement. There is a preference for raising resources in the primary market through private placement of debt instruments. Private placements accounted for about 93% of total resources mobilized through domestic issues by the corporate sector during 2002-03. Rapid dismantling of shackles on institutional investments and deregulation of the economy are driving growth of this segment. There are several inherent advantages of relying on private placement route for raising resources. While it is cost and time effective method of raising funds and can be structured to meet the needs of the entrepreneurs, it does not require detailed compliance with formalities as required in public or rights issues. It is believed in some circles that private placement has crowded out public issues. However, to prevent public issues from being passed on as private placement, the Companies (Amendment) Act, 2001 considers offer of securities to more than 50 persons as made to public. Indian market is getting integrated with the global market though in a limited way through euro issues. Since 1992, when they were permitted access, Indian companies have raised about Rs. 34,264 million through ADRs/GDRs. By the end of March 2003, 502 FIIs were registered with SEBI. They had net cumulative investments over of US $ 15.8 billion by the end of March 2003. Their operations influence the market as they do delivery-based business and their knowledge of market is considered superior. The market is getting institutionalized as people prefer mutual funds as their investment vehicle, thanks to evolution of a regulatory framework for mutual funds, tax concessions offered by government and preference of investors for passive investing. The net collections by MFs picked up during this decade and Ishan Institute of Management & Technology 19
Current scenario of Capital Market in India. increased to Rs. 199,530 million during 1999-00. This declined to Rs. 111,350 million during 2000-01 which may be attributed to increase in rate of tax on income distributed by debt oriented mutual funds and lackluster secondary market. The total collection of mutual funds for 2002-03 has been Rs. 105,378 million. Starting with an asset base of Rs. 250 million in 1964, the total assets under management at the end of March 2003 was Rs. 794,640 million. The number of households owning units of MFs exceeds the number of households owning equity and debentures. At the end of financial year March 2003, according to a SEBI press release 23 million unit holders had invested in units of MFs, while 16 million individual investors invested in equity and or debentures. Government Securities The primary issues of the Central Government have increased many-fold during the decade of 1990s from Rs. 89,890 million in 1990-91 to Rs. 1,511,260 million in 2002-03. The issues by state governments increased by about twelve times from Rs. 25,690 million to Rs. 308,530 million during the same period. The Central Government mobilised Rs. 1,250,000 million through issue of dated securities and Rs. 261,260 million through issue of T-bills. After meeting repayment liabilities of Rs. 274,200 million for dated securities, and redemption of T-bills of Rs. 195,880 million, net market borrowing of Central Government amounted to Rs. 1,041,180 million for the year 2002-03. The state governments collectively raised Rs. 305,830 million during 2002-03 as against Rs. 187,070 million in the preceding year. The net borrowings of State Governments in 2002-03 amounted to Rs. 290,640 million. Along with growth of the market, the investor base has become very wide. In addition to banks and insurance companies, corporates and individual investors are investing in government securities. With dismantling of control regime, and gradual lowering of the SLR and CRR, Government is borrowing at nearmarket rates. The coupons across maturities went down recently signifying lower interest rates. The weighted average cost of its borrowing at one stage increased to 13.75% in 1995- 96, which declined to 7.34% in 2002-03. The maturity structure of government debt is also changing. In view of bunching of redemption liabilities in the medium term, securities with higher maturities were issued during 2002-03. About 64% of primary issues were raised through securities with maturities above 5 years and up Ishan Institute of Management & Technology 20
Current scenario of Capital Market in India. to 10 years. As a result the weighted average maturity of dated securities increased to 13.83 years from 6.6 years in 1997-98.
Relationship between the Primary and Secondary Market

1. The new issues market cannot function without the secondary market. The secondary market or the stock market provides liquidity for the issued securities. The issued securities are traded in the secondary market offering liquidity to the stocks at a fair price. 2. The stock exchanges through their listing requirements, exercise control over the primary market. The company seeking for listing on the respective stock exchange has to comply with all the rules and regulations given by the stock exchange. 3. The primary market provides a direct link between the prospective investors and the company. By providing liquidity and safety, the stock markets encourage the public to subscribe to the new issues. The marketability and the capital appreciation provided in the stock market are the major factors that attract the investing public towards the stock market. Thus, it provides an indirect link between the savers and the company. 4. Even though they are complementary to each other, their functions and the organizational set up are different from each other. The health of the primary market depends on the secondary market and vice versa.
Functions of Primary Market

The main service functions of the primary market are organization, underwriting and distribution. Origination deals with the origin of the new issue. The proposal is analyzed in terms of the nature of the security, the size of the issue, and timing of the issue and floatation method of the issue. Underwriting contract makes the share predictable and removes the element of uncertainty in the subscription. Distribution refers to the lead managers and brokers to the issue. In the new issue market stocks are offered for the first time. The functions and the organization of the new issue market is different from the secondary market. In the new issue the lead mangers manage the issue, the underwriters assure to take up the unsubscribed Ishan Institute of Management & Technology 21
Current scenario of Capital Market in India. portion according to his commitment for a commission and the bankers take up the responsibility of the collecting the application form and the money. Advertising agencies promote the new issue through advertising. Financial institutions and underwriter lend term loans to the company. Government agencies regulate the issue. The new issues are offered through prospectus. The prospectus is drafted according to SEBI guidelines disclosing the needed information to the investing public. In the bought out deal banks or a company buys the promoters shares and they offer them to the public at a later date. This reduces the cost of raising the fund. Private placement means placing of the issue with financial institutions. They sell shares to the investors at a suitable price. Right issue means the allotment of shares to the previous shareholders at a pro-ratio basis. Book building involves firm allotment of the instrument to a syndicate created by the lead managers. The book runner manages the issue. Norms are given by the SEBI to price the issue. Proportionate allotment method is adopted in the allocation of shares. Project appraisal, disclosure in the prospectus and clearance of the prospectus by the stock exchanges protect the investors in the primary market along with the active role played by the SEBI
Secondary market
The market for long-term securities like bonds, equity stocks and preferred stocks is divided into primary market and 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. In the secondary market, the investors can sell and buy securities. Stock markets predominantly deal in the equity shares. Debt instruments like bonds and debentures are also traded in the stock market. Well-regulated and active stock market promotes capital formation. Growth of the primary market depends on the secondary market. The health of the economy is reflected by the growth of the stock market. Corporate Securities The number of stock exchanges increased from 11 in 1990 to 23 now. All the exchanges are fully computerised and offer 100% on-line trading. 9,413 companies were available for trading on stock exchanges at the end of March 2003. The trading platform of the stock exchanges was accessible to 9,519 members from over 358 cities on the same date. Ishan Institute of Management & Technology 22
Current scenario of Capital Market in India. The market capitalisation grew ten fold between 1990-91 and 1999-00. It increased by 221% during 1991-92 and by 107% during 1999-00. All India market capitalisation is estimated at Rs. 6,319,212 million at the end of March 2003. The market capitalisation ratio, which indicates the size of the market, increased sharply to 57.4% in 1991-92 following spurt in share prices. The ratio further increased to 85% by March 2000. It, however, declined to 55% at the end of March 2001 and to 29% by end March 2003. The trading volumes on exchanges have been witnessing phenomenal growth during the 1990s. The average daily turnover grew from about Rs.1500 million in 1990 to Rs. 120,000 million in 2000, peaking at over Rs. 200,000 million. One-sided turnover on all stock exchanges exceeded Rs. 10,000,000 million during 1998-99, Rs. 20,000,000 million during 1999-00 and approached Rs. 30,000,000 million during 2000-01. However, the trading volume substantially depleted to Rs.9,689,541 million in 2002-03. The turnover ratio, which reflects the volume of trading in relation to the size of the market, has been increasing by leaps and bounds after the advent of screen based trading system by the NSE. The turnover ratio for the year 2002-03 increased to 375 but fell substantially due to bad market conditions to 119 during 2001-02 regaining its position accounted 153.3% in 2002-03. The relative importance of various stock exchanges in the market has undergone dramatic change during this decade. The increase in turnover took place mostly at the large big exchanges and it was partly at the cost of small exchanges that failed to keep pace with the changes. NSE is the market leader with more 85% of total turnover (volumes on all segments) in 2002-03. Top 5 stock exchanges accounted for 99.88% of turnover, while the rest 18 exchange for less than 0.12% during 2002-03. About ten exchanges reported nil turnover during the year. Role of the Secondary Market When company management has different objectives than its outside investors, "agency and "information" problems may result. For example, management may exert less than optimal effort, may pursue goals that simply enhance its own power and control, or may squander or divert company resources. In addition, to the extent that management is better informed than outside investors about the company's financial situation, this creates an informational asymmetry. This, in turn, may result in management being unable to convince its outside Ishan Institute of Management & Technology 23
Current scenario of Capital Market in India. investors of the true value of the company as well as of management's intentions. As a consequence, management also may find that it is not able to raise as much capital as it wants or needs to finance new projects, or that management may have to surrender too much of the value of the firm to raise the capital it wants or needs. "Governance" refers to the various mechanisms that exist to mitigate these agency and information problems. These mechanisms are numerous, some involving capital markets (e.g., facilitation of corporate control via takeover) while others do not, at least not directly (e.g., the role of the board of directors as a monitoring device). These major mechanisms will be discussed. We use the term "marketbased governance" to refer to the role of capital markets in alleviating the agency and information problems, by functioning as an effective conduit for monitoring and controlling management's sub optimal behavior. Market-based governance may take different forms. However, generally speaking, such governance takes the form of facilitating the monitoring of management by outsiders, and aggregating informationin the form of equilibrium prices (or price discovery)to help guide management decisions within the firm. A. Monitoring and Control. As noted, secondary equity markets serve as a conduit for monitoring and controlling management by outsiders. First, markets generate information that helps outside investors Evaluate the quality of past management decisions. Second, the threat of a takeover may mitigate management inefficiencies. Third, information on stock-market prices provides for effective incentives for management. And fourth, the rich menu of contracts provided in the market allows private workouts of financial distress, easing the transfer of control.
For purposes of our analysis below, we have divided monitoring into two categories Market-based monitoring Non market-based monitoring
I. Market-Based Monitoring I. 1 Active Shareholders: Ishan Institute of Management & Technology 24
Current scenario of Capital Market in India. The secondary equity market can facilitate effective monitoring by providing the ability to build positions so as to influence management decisions in situations where a change in corporate policies could increase a firm's value. I. 2 The Market for Corporate Control: The threat of a corporate takeover by outside investors could serve as a deterrent to mismanagement. Secondary equity markets provide the means for launching a credible takeover threat, which could influence actions by management. I. 3 Facilitation of Incentive-Based Compensation: Management could be aligned with its outside shareholders through a proper structuring of incentive-based compensation. Management's equity ownership and stock options provide management with additional incentives to act in the interest of outside shareholders. I. 4 Certification by Investment Banks: When issuing securities to the public, the underwriting investment bankers monitor management. When certifying a firm that hires them to sell its securities, these investment bankers place their own reputations and capital at stake. II. Non Market-Based Monitoring II. 1 Board of Directors: A board of directors is the primary method of non market-based monitoring. Management reports directly to the board, and the board has a fiduciary obligation to stay informed of management's major activities. The board has the power to terminate management that does not act in the best interests of the company's shareholders. The key to a board's being an effective monitoring mechanism is its independence. In this regard, the composition of the board, especially the presence of outside board members, is critical to its effectiveness as a monitor. II. 2 Financial intermediaries as delegated monitors: Banks closely monitor their business borrowers, and collect information and scrutinize major investment and financing decisions. In doing so, they can threaten to withhold financing should management act in a manner contrary to the banks' interests. Monitoring via business groups. In some countries, such as Japan and Korea, corporate actions are coordinated within a family of interrelated firms, with a main bank at the center. Firms in the group are interconnected through intricate vertical and horizontal business relationships Ishan Institute of Management & Technology 25
Current scenario of Capital Market in India. and cross-ownership. Members of the business group, with the lead participation of the main bank, closely monitor the actions of a member firm's management. The Legal System: The four main legislations governing the securities market are: (a) the SEBI Act, 1992 which establishes SEBI to protect investors and develop and regulate securities market; (b) the Companies Act, 1956, which sets out the code of conduct for the corporate sector in relation to issue, allotment and transfer of securities, and disclosures to be made in public issues; (c) the Securities Contracts (Regulation) Act, 1956, which provides for regulation of transactions in securities through control over stock exchanges; and (d) the Depositories Act, 1996 which provides for electronic maintenance and transfer of ownership of demat securities. Government has framed rules under the SCRA, SEBI Act and the Depositories Act. SEBI has framed regulations under the SEBI Act and the Depositories Act for registration and regulation of all market intermediaries, and for prevention of unfair trade practices, insider trading, etc. Under these Acts, Government and SEBI issue notifications, guidelines, and circulars which need to be complied with by market participants. The SROs like stock exchanges have also laid down their rules of game. The responsibility for regulating the securities market is shared by Department of Economic Affairs (DEA), Department of Company Affairs (DCA), Reserve Bank of India (RBI) and SEBI. The activities of these agencies are co-ordinated by the High Level Committee on Capital Markets. Most of the powers under the SCRA are exercisable by DEA while a few others by SEBI. The powers of the DEA under the SCRA are also con-currently exercised by SEBI. The powers in respect of the contracts for sale and purchase of securities, gold related securities, money market securities and securities derived from these securities and ready forward contracts in debt securities are exercised concurrently by RBI. The SEBI Act and the Depositories Act are mostly administered by SEBI. The rules and regulations under the securities laws are administered by SEBI. The powers under the Companies Act relating to issue and transfer of securities and non-payment of dividend are administered by SEBI in case of listed public companies and public companies proposing to get their securities listed. The SROs ensure compliance with their own rules as well as with the rules.
Current scenario of Capital Market in India. The legal system governs both the rights of management and the rights of investors. The legal system also specifies the recourse available to investors. Recent research indicates that countries vary in the level of protection afforded to minority shareholders (LaPorta et al, 1996). Generally, countries with common-law traditions afford the highest protection, while civil-law countries, particularly the French civil-law systems, provide the least amount of protection. For purposes of this paper, the main focus and emphasis are on market-based governance services. B. Information Production. Markets serve to aggregate the diverse opinions held by investors regarding the financial prospects of a company, thereby providing management with an important guide when it comes to its investment decisions. This price discovery role of secondary equity markets is well recognized. Prices aggregate the diverse opinions and convey that collective wisdom to management. This flow of information from the market to the firm might be especially relevant in today's economy, since consensus on the optimal management actions is so difficult to achieve due to rapid technological change and constantly changing market conditions.
Functions of Stock Exchange

Current scenario of Capital Market in India. Maintains active trading: shares are traded on the stock exchanges, enabling the investors to buy and sell securities. The prices may vary from transactions to transaction. A continuous trading increases the liquidity or marketability of the shares traded on the stock exchanges. Fixation of prices: Price is determined by the transactions that flow from investors demand and suppliers preferences. Usually the traded prices are made known to the public. This helps the investors to make better decisions. Ensures safe and fair dealing: The rules, regulations and by-laws of the stock exchanges provide a measure of safety to the investors. Transactions are conducted under competitive conditions enabling the investors to get a fair deal. Aids in financing the industry: A continuous market for shares provides a favourable climate for raising capital. The negotiability and transferability of the securities helps the companies to raise long-term funds. When it is easy to trade the securities, investors are willing to subscribe to the initial public offerings. This stimulates the capital formation. Dissemination of information: Stock exchanges provide information through their various publications. They publish the share prices traded on daily basis along with the volume traded. Directory of Corporate Information is useful for the investors assessment regarding the corporate. Handouts, handbooks and pamphlets provide information regarding the functioning of the stock exchanges. Performance inducer: The prices of stocks reflect the performance of the traded companies. This makes the corporate more concerned with its public image and tries to maintain good performance. Self-regulating organization: The stock exchanges monitor the integrity of the members, brokers, listed companies and clients. Continuous internal audit safeguards the investors against unfair trade practices. It settles the dispute between member brokers, investors and brokers.
Research in Securities Market

In order to deepen the understanding and knowledge about Indian capital market, and to assist in policy-making, SEBI has been promoting high quality research in capital market. It has set up an in-house research department, which brings out working papers on a regular basis. In collaboration with NCAER, SEBI brought out a Survey of Indian Investors, which estimates investor population in India and their investment preferences. SEBI has also tied up with reputed national and international academic and research institutions for conducting research studies/projects on various issues related to the capital market. In order to improve market efficiency further and to set international benchmarks in the securities industry, NSE administers a scheme called the NSE Research Initiative with a view to develop an information base and a better insight into the working of securities market in India. The objective of this initiative is to foster research, which can support and facilitate (a) stock exchanges to better design market micro-structure, (b) participants to frame their strategies in the market place, (c) regulators to frame regulations, (d) policy makers to formulate policies, and (e) expand the horizon of knowledge. The Initiative has received tremendous response. Testing and Certification The intermediaries, of all shapes and sizes, who package and sell securities, compete with one another for the chance to handle investors/issuers money. The quality of their services determines the shape and health of the securities market. In developed markets and in some of the developing markets, this is ensured through a system of testing and certification of persons joining market intermediaries in the securities market. A testing and certification mechanism that has become extremely popular and is sought after by the candidates as well as employers is a unique on-line testing and certification programme called National Stock Exchanges Certification in Financial Markets (NCFM). It is an on-line fully automated nation-wide testing and certification system where the entire process from generation of question paper, invigilation, testing, assessing, scores reporting and certifying is fully automated - there is absolutely no scope for human intervention. It allows tremendous Ishan Institute of Management & Technology 29
Current scenario of Capital Market in India. flexibility in terms of testing centres, dates and timing and provides easy accessibility and convenience to candidates as he can be tested at any time and from any location. It tests practical knowledge and skills, that are required to operate in financial markets, in a very secure and unbiased manner, and certifies personnel who have a proper understanding of the market and business and skills to service different constituents of the market. It offers 9 financial market related modules.
Market Design
Primary Market 1. Corporate Securities: The Disclosure and Investor Protection (DIP) guidelines prescribe a substantial body of requirements for issuers/intermediaries, the broad intention being to ensure that all concerned observe high standards of integrity and fair dealing, comply with all the requirements with due skill, diligence and care, and disclose the truth, whole truth and nothing but truth. The guidelines aim to secure fuller disclosure of relevant information about the issuer and the nature of the securities to be issued so that investors can take informed decisions. For example, issuers are required to disclose any material risk factors and give justification for pricing in their prospectus. An unlisted company can access the market up to 5 times its pre-issue networth only if it has track record of distributable profits and net worth of Rs. 1 crore in 3 out of last five years. A listed company can access up to 5 times of its pre-issue networth. In case a company does not have track record or wishes to raise beyond 5 times of its pre-issue networth, it can access the market only through book building with minimum offer of 60% to qualified institutional buyers. Infrastructure companies are exempt from the requirement of eligibility norms if their project has been appraised by a public financial institution and not less than 5% of the project cost is financed by any of the institutions, jointly or severally, by way of loan and/or subscription to equity. The debt instruments of maturities more than 18 months require credit rating. If the issue size exceeds Rs. 100 crore, two ratings from different agencies are required. Thus the quality of the issue is demonstrated by track record/appraisal by approved financial institutions/credit rating/subscription by QIBs. The lead merchant banker discharges most of the pre-issue and post-issue obligations. He satisfies himself about all aspects of offering and adequacy of disclosures in the offer document. He issues a due diligence certificate stating Ishan Institute of Management & Technology 30
Current scenario of Capital Market in India. that he has examined the prospectus, he finds it in order and that it brings out all the facts and does not contain anything wrong or misleading. He also takes care of allotment, refund and despatch of certificates. The admission to a depository for dematerialisation of securities is a prerequisite for making a public or rights issue or an offer for sale. The investors, however, have the option of subscribing to securities in either physical form or dematerialised form. All new IPOs are compulsorily traded in dematerialised form. Every public listed company making IPO of any security for Rs. 10 crore or more is required to do so only in dematerialised form. 2. Government Securities: The government securities market has witnessed significant transformation in the 1990s. With giving up of the responsibility of allocating resources from securities market, government stopped expropriating seigniorage and started borrowing at near - market rates. Government securities are now sold at market related coupon rates through a system of auctions instead of earlier practice of issue of securities at very low rates just to reduce the cost of borrowing of the government. Major reforms initiated in the primary market for government securities include auction system (uniform price and multiple price method) for primary issuance of T-bills and central government dated securities, a system of primary dealers and non-competitive bids to widen investor base and promote retail participation, issuance of securities across maturities to develop a yield curve from short to long end and provide benchmarks for rest of the debt market, innovative instruments like, zero coupon bonds, floating rate bonds, bonds with embedded derivatives, availability of full range ( 91-day and 382-day) of T-bills, etc.
Secondary Market
(a) Corporate Securities: The stock exchanges are the exclusive centres for trading of securities. Though the area of operation/jurisdiction of an exchange is specified at the time of its recognition, they have been allowed recently to set up trading terminals anywhere in the country. The three newly set up exchanges (OTCEI, NSE and ICSE) were permitted since their inception to have nation wide trading. The trading platforms of a few exchanges are now accessible from many locations. Further, with extensive use of information technology, Ishan Institute of Management & Technology 31
Current scenario of Capital Market in India. the trading platforms of a few exchanges are also accessible from anywhere through the Internet and mobile devices. This made a huge difference in a geographically vast country like India. (b) Exchange Management: Most of the stock exchanges in the country are organized as mutuals which was considered beneficial in terms of tax benefits and matters of compliance. The trading members, who provide brokering services, also own, control and manage the exchanges. This is not an effective model for self-regulatory organisations as the regulatory and public interest of the exchange conflicts with private interests. Efforts are on to demutualise the exchanges whereby ownership, management and trading membership would be segregated from one another. Two exchanges viz. OTCEI and NSE are demutualised from inception, where ownership, management and trading are in the hands of three different sets of people. This model eliminates conflict of interest and helps the exchange to pursue market efficiency and investor interest aggressively. (c) Membership: The trading platform of an exchange is accessible only to brokers. The broker enters into trades in exchanges either on his own account or on behalf of clients. No stock broker or sub-broker is allowed to buy, sell or deal in securities, unless he or she holds a certificate of registration granted by SEBI. A broker/sub-broker complies with the code of conduct prescribed by SEBI. Over time, a number of brokers - proprietor firms and partnership firms have converted themselves into corporates. The standards for admission of members stress on factors, such as corporate structure, capital adequacy, track record, education, experience, etc. and reflect a conscious endeavour to ensure quality broking services. (d) Listing: A company seeking listing satisfies the exchange that at least 10% of the securities, subject to a minimum of 20 lakh securities, were offered to public for subscription, and the size of the net offer to the public (i.e. the offer price multiplied by the number of securities offered to the public, excluding reservations, firm allotment and promoters contribution) was not less than Rs.100 crore, and the issue is made only through book building method with allocation of 60% of the issue size to the qualified institutional buyers. Ishan Institute of Management & Technology 32
Current scenario of Capital Market in India. In the alternative, it is required to offer at least 25% of the securities to public. The company is also required to maintain the minimum level of non-promoter holding on a continuous basis. In order to provide an opportunity to investors to invest/trade in the securities of local companies, it is mandatory for the companies, wishing to list their securities, to list on the regional stock exchange nearest to their registered office. If they so wish, they can seek listing on other exchanges as well. Monopoly of the exchanges within their allocated area, regional aspirations of the people and mandatory listing on the regional stock exchange resulted in multiplicity of exchanges. The basic norms for listing of securities on the stock exchanges are uniform for all the exchanges. These norms are specified in the listing agreement entered into between the company and the concerned exchange. The listing agreement prescribes a number of requirements to be continuously complied with by the issuers for continued listing and such compliance is monitored by the exchanges. It also stipulates the disclosures to be made by the companies and the corporate governance practices to be followed by them. SEBI has been issuing guidelines/circulars prescribing certain norms to be included in the listing agreement and to be complied with by the companies. A listed security is available for trading on the exchange. The stock exchanges levy listing fees - initial fees and annual fees - from the listed companies. It is a major source of income for many exchanges. A security listed on other exchanges is also permitted for trading. A listed company can voluntary delist its securities from non-regional stock exchanges after providing an exit opportunity to holders of securities in the region where the concerned exchange is located. An exchange can, however, delist the securities compulsorily following a very stringent procedure. (e) Trading Mechanism: The exchanges provide an on-line fully-automated screen based trading system (SBTS) where a member can punch into the computer quantities of securities and the prices at which he likes to transact and the transaction is executed as soon as it finds a matching order from a counter party. SBTS electronically matches orders on a strict price/time priority and hence cuts down on time, cost and risk of error, as well as on fraud resulting in improved operational efficiency. It allows faster incorporation of price sensitive information into prevailing prices, thus increasing the informational efficiency of markets. It enables market participants to see the full market on real-time, making the market Ishan Institute of Management & Technology 33
Current scenario of Capital Market in India. transparent. It allows a large number of participants, irrespective of their geographical locations, to trade with one another simultaneously, improving the depth and liquidity of the market. It provides full anonymity by accepting orders, big or small, from members without revealing their identity, thus providing equal access to everybody. It also provides a perfect audit trail, which helps to resolve disputes by logging in the trade execution process in entirety. (f) Trading Rules: Regulations have been framed to prevent insider trading as well as unfair trade practices. The acquisitions and takeovers are permitted in a welldefined and orderly manner. The companies are permitted to buy back their securities to improve liquidity and enhance the shareholders wealth. (g) Price Bands: Stock market volatility is generally a cause of concern for both policy makers as well as investors. To curb excessive volatility, SEBI has prescribed a system of price bands. The price bands or circuit breakers bring about a coordinated trading halt in all equity and equity derivatives markets nation-wide. An index-based market-wide circuit breaker system at three stages of the index movement either way at 10%, 15% and 20% has been prescribed. The movement of either S&P CNX Nifty or Sensex, whichever is breached earlier, triggers the breakers. As an additional measure of safety, individual scrip-wise price bands of 20% either way have been imposed for all securities except those available for stock options. (h) Demat Trading: The Depositories Act, 1996 was passed to proved for the establishment of depositories in securities with the objective of ensuring free transferability of securities with speed, accuracy and security by (a) making securities of public limited companies freely transferable subject to certain exceptions; (b) dematerialising the securities in the depository mode; and (c) providing for maintenance of ownership records in a book entry form. In order to streamline both the stages of settlement process, the Act envisages transfer of ownership of securities electronically by book entry without making the securities move from person to person. Two depositories, viz. NSDL and CDSL, have come up to provide Ishan Institute of Management & Technology 34
Current scenario of Capital Market in India. instantaneous electronic transfer of securities. At the end of March 2002, 4,172 and 4,284 companies were connected to NSDL and CDSL respectively. The number of dematerialised securities increased to 56.5 billion at the end of March 2002. As on the same date, the value of dematerialsied securities was Rs. 4,669 billion and the number of investor accounts was 4,605,588. All actively traded scrips are held, traded and settled in demat form. Demat settlement accounts for over 99% of turnover settled by delivery. This has almost eliminated the bad deliveries and associated problems. To prevent physical certificates from sneaking into circulation, it has been mandatory for all new IPOs to be compulsorily traded in dematerialized form. The admission to a depository for dematerialisation of securities has been made a prerequisite for making a public or rights issue or an offer for sale. It has also been made compulsory for public listed companies making IPO of any security for Rs. 10 crore or more to do the same only in dematerialised form. (i) Charges: A stock broker is required to pay a registration fee of Rs.5,000 every financial year, if his annual turnover does not exceed Rs. 1 crore. If the turnover exceeds Rs. 1 crore during any financial year, he has to pay Rs. 5,000 plus one-hundredth of 1% of the turnover in excess of Rs.1 crore. After the expiry of five years from the date of initial registration as a broker, he has to pay Rs. 5,000 for a block of five financial years. Besides, the exchanges collect transaction charges from its trading members. NSE levies Rs. 4 per lakh of turnover. The maximum brokerage a trading member can levy in respect of securities transactions is 2.5% of the contract price, exclusive of statutory levies like SEBI turnover fee, service tax and stamp duty. However, brokerage charges as low as 0.15% are also observed in the market. (j) Trading Cycle: Rolling settlement on T+3 basis gave way to T+2 from April 2003. The market has moved close to spot/cash market. (k) Risk Management: To pre-empt market failures and protect investors, the regulator/exchanges have developed a comprehensive risk management system, which is constantly monitored and upgraded. It encompasses capital adequacy of members, adequate margin requirements, limits on Ishan Institute of Management & Technology 35
Current scenario of Capital Market in India. exposure and turnover, indemnity insurance, on-line position monitoring and automatic disablement, etc. They also administer an efficient market surveillance system to curb excessive volatility, detect and prevent price manipulations. Exchanges have set up trade/settlement guarantee funds for meeting shortages arising out of nonfulfillment/partial fulfillment of funds obligations by the members in a settlement. A clearing corporation assures the counterparty risk of each member and guarantees financial settlement in respect of trades executed on NSE. (l) Government Securities: The reforms in the secondary market include Delivery versus Payment system for settling scripless SGL transactions to reduce settlement risks, SGL Account II with RBI to enable financial intermediaries to open custody (Constituent SGL) accounts and facilitate retail transactions in scripless mode, enforcement of a trade-for-trade regime, settlement period of T+0 or T+1 for all transactions undertaken directly between SGL participants and up to T+5 days for transactions routed through NSE brokers, routing transactions through brokers of NSE, OTCEI and BSE, repos in all government securities with settlement through SGL, liquidity support to PDs to enable them to support primary market and undertake market making, special fund facility for security settlement, etc. As part of the ongoing efforts to build debt market infrastructure, two new systems, the Negotiated Dealing System (NDS) and the Clearing Corporation of India Limited (CCIL) commenced operations on February 15, 2002. NDS, interalia, facilitates screen based negotiated dealing for secondary market transactions in government securities and money market instruments, online reporting of transactions in the instruments available on the NDS and dissemination of trade information to the market. Government Securities (including T-bills), call money, notice/term money, repos in eligible securities, Commercial Papers and Certificate of Deposits are available for negotiated dealing through NDS among the members. The CCIL facilitates settlement of transactions in government securities (both outright and repo) on Delivery versus Payment (DvP-II) basis which provides for settlement of securities on gross basis and settlement of funds on net basis simultaneously. It acts as a central counterparty for clearing and settlement of government securities transactions done on NDS. The relative importance of various stock exchanges in the market has undergone dramatic change during this decade. The increase in turnover took place mostly at the large big exchanges and it was partly at the cost of small exchanges that failed to keep pace with the changes. NSE is the Ishan Institute of Management & Technology 36
Current scenario of Capital Market in India. market leader with over 80% of total turnover (volumes on all segments) in 2001-02. Top 6 stock exchanges accounted for 99.88% of turnover, while the rest 17 exchange for less than 0.12% during 2002-03 (Table 5.4). About a dozen exchanges reported nil turnover during the year. The movement of the S&P CNX NIFTY, the most widely used indicator of the market, is presented in Chart 5.1. In the very first year of liberalisation, i.e. 1991-92, it recorded a growth of 267%, followed by sharp decline of 47% in the next year as certain irregularities in securities transactions were noticed. The market picked up next year thanks to increased inflow of foreign funds, and increased investor interest. Thereafter the market remained subdued. The index recorded a decline of 3.47% during 1998-99 under the pressure of economic sanctions following detonation of nuclear device, continuing woes of East Asian financial markets, volatility of Indian currency and worries about financial health of UTIs US-64 scheme. The Union Budget of 1999 brought cheers to the market. The market moved on a roller coaster ride, but a distinct rising trend emerged due to all-round positive perception about strength of the Government and also its commitment towards second generation reforms, improved macro-economic parameters and better corporate results. The S&P CNX Nifty firmed up during 1999-2000 by 42% which was nearly four times the average return offered on bank deposits. The trend got reversed during 2000-01, which witnessed large sell-offs in new economy stocks in global markets and deceleration in the growth of the domestic economy. This brought down Nifty from a high of 1636.95 in April 2000 to a low of 1108.20 in October 2000. The market looked up in November-January in anticipation of a good budget. However it did not last long as the market received shocking news about imminent payment crisis on certain exchanges, large scale manipulations in stock prices and revelation of large scale corruption in the procurement of defence equipments. The Nifty closed at 1148.20 at the end of March 2001 recording a fall of about 25% during 2000-01. The trend precipitated further with introduction of rolling settlement and withdrawal of deferral products in July 2002, suspension of repurchase facility under UTIs US-64 scheme, terrorist attack on world Trade Centre in September 2002, etc. which caused a further decline in S&P CNX Nifty by 1.6% during 2001-02. The Nifty closed at 978.2 at the end of March 2003. Government Securities The trading volumes in government securities exceeded the combined trading volumes in equity segments of all the exchanges in the country during 2002-03. The aggregate turnover in central and Ishan Institute of Management & Technology 37
Current scenario of Capital Market in India. state government dated securities, including treasury bills, through SGL transactions increased by manifold between 1994-95 and 2002-03. During 2002-03 it reached a level of Rs. 19,557,313 million, recording about 24.3% growth over Rs.15,738,930 million in the previous year. Such growing turnover reflects further deepening of the market. The bulk of transactions during 2000-02 were on outright basis. The share of outright transactions in government securities increased from 23.2% in 1995-96 to 71.2% in 2002-03. The share of repo transactions declined correspondingly from 76.8% in 1995-96 to 29% in 2002-03. The share of WDM segment of NSE in total turnover for government securities decreased marginally from 58.9% in 2000-01 to 52% in 2002-03. As compared to the increase in overall turnover of government securities by 24%, the same on WDM grew by 11% during 2002-03. Share of WDM in transactions of dated securities decreased from 61.1% in 2001-02 to 55.6% in 2002-03. Its share in transactions of T-bills decreased from 27.4% in 2001-02 to 21.5% in 2002-03. Government debt, which constitutes about three-fourth of the total outstanding debt, has the highest level of liquidity amongst the fixed income instruments in the secondary market. The share of dated securities in total turnover of government securities has been increasing over the years. Two-way quotes are available for the active gilt securities from the primary dealers. Though many trades in the gilts take place through telephone, a larger chunk of trades get routed through NSE brokers. Derivatives Market Trading in derivatives of securities commenced in June 2000 with the enactment of enabling legislation in early 2000. Derivatives are formally defined to include: (a) a security derived from a debt instrument, share, loan whether secured or unsecured, risk instrument or contract for differences or any other form of security, and (b) a contract which derives its value from the prices, or index of prices, or underlying securities. Derivatives are legal and valid only if such contracts are traded on a recognised stock exchange, thus precluding OTC derivatives. Derivatives trading commenced in India in June 2000 after SEBI granted the approval to this effect in May 2000. SEBI permitted the derivative segment of two stock exchanges, i.e. NSE and BSE, and their clearing house/corporation to commence trading and settlement in approved derivative contracts. To begin with, SEBI approved trading in index futures contracts based on S&P CNX Nifty Index and BSE30 (Sensex) Index. This was followed by approval for trading in options based on these two Ishan Institute of Management & Technology 38
Current scenario of Capital Market in India. indices and options on individual securities. The trading in index options commenced in June 2001 and trading in options on individual securities would commence in July 2001 while trading in futures of individual stocks started from November 2001. In June 2003, SEBI/RBI approved the trading on interest rate derivative instruments. The total exchange traded derivatives witnessed a volume of Rs.4,423,333 million during 2002-03 as against Rs. 1,038,480 million during the preceding year. While NSE accounted for about 99.5% of total turnover, BSE accounted for less than 1% in 2002-03. The market witnessed higher volumes from June 2001 with introduction of index options, and still higher volumes with the introduction of stock options in July 2001. There was a spurt in volumes in November 2001 when stock futures were introduced. It is believed that India is the largest market in the world for stock futures.
Current status of Indian capital markets

Market capitalisation and turnover As on March 31, 2000, the Indian stock market had a market capitalisation of over Rs 10 trillion ($ 230 billion) representing 58per cent of GDP. The annual trading volume in all the exchanges put together amounted to Rs 20 trillion (approximately twice the market capitalisation). The average daily trading volume is about $2 billion and there are days on which the turnover is twice this level. Sideshows 'Stockexchange-wise turnover' and 'Stock market indicators', provide more details about turnover and market capitalisation. India has 9,871 listed companies; this number is second only to that of the United States. However, most of the trading volume is concentrated in a few hundred stocks, and even within this, the top hundred stocks account for a disproportionate share of the trading volume. The Indian capital market is well-diversified in terms of ownership pattern and industry structure. Most of the top 50 companies are domestic private sector companies with no single family or business group accounting for a disproportionate share. There is no foreign owned corporation, public sector organisation or newly privatised company in the top five stocks by market capitalisation. Companies with a market capitalisation of $1 billion or more are present in Ishan Institute of Management & Technology 39
Current scenario of Capital Market in India. industries as diverse as software, petrochemicals, oil refining, consumer goods, telecom, banking, pharmaceuticals, and entertainment. In the last few years, however, new economy stocks have shown rapid increase in their market capitalisation and turnover. In the BSE 500 index covering the top 500 listed companies, new economy stocks account for about 49per cent of market capitalisation and 50per cent of the average daily turnover.
Stock exchanges India boasts of the oldest stock exchange in Asia -- the Bombay Stock Exchange is 125 years old. There are 23 recognised exchanges spread across the country, but a process of consolidation is now under way. Many of the regional stock exchanges have started aligning themselves with one or both of the two large exchanges (the Bombay Stock Exchange and the National Stock Exchange) both of which have VSAT networks that give them a nation wide reach. The National Stock Exchange is an unlisted for-profit company set up by some of the leading financial institutions of India. Most of the remaining stock exchanges are broker-owned (mutual) organisations, but the Bombay Stock Exchange is actively considering demutualisation. The Securities and Exchange Board of India (SEBI), the apex regulator of the capital market has regulations that mandate a minimum number of outside directors on the governing board and provide greater autonomy to the professional executives in the day-to-day running of the exchange. Trading and settlement Indias stock exchanges are fully computerised order driven or order-cum-quote driven systems. The country has made rapid strides towards a dematerialised trading environment on the basis of a competing depositories model. Investors have the choice of holding their stocks in physical or dematerialised form, but trading in the exchanges is in mandatory dematerialised mode in most important stocks. As of October 2000, about 98per cent of the trading in the stock exchanges is in dematerialised mode. Ishan Institute of Management & Technology 40
Current scenario of Capital Market in India. India has put in place a regulatory regime for internet trading of stocks. A large number of online brokers have started operations. More brokers are expected to follow when the exchanges put in place an ASP (Application Service Provider) model for online trading software. However, currently, the level of penetration of online trading is extremely small. The stock exchanges currently run two parallel settlement systems. Practically all the trading takes place in the account period settlement system in which all trades during a weekly account period are netted off and the net obligations are settled five business days after the end of the period. The other unpopular system is that of rolling settlements where trades of each day are settled on a T+5 basis. SEBI is currently working on mandatorily shifting all stocks in a phased manner to the rolling settlement system. Further improvements in the settlement system to T+3 or beyond would have to wait for improvements in the payment system. However, account period settlement does not give rise to significant systemic risks in India because of stringent end of day and intra-day margining systems. Put simply, the weekly settlement is regarded as akin to a one-week futures contract, and the systemic risk is taken care of by using futures style margining. The exchange imposes daily mark to market and initial margins on the brokers to eliminate settlement risk. Exchanges also have clearing houses to guarantee settlements on the exchange. As a result, there have been no settlement failures in the principal stock exchanges during the last five years. Primary market India enjoyed a major boom of IPOs in the mid 1990s. This hot IPO period came to an end in 1995-96 with a fall in the stock market and a downturn in the economy. Investors who subscribed at the height of the boom suffered significant losses, and the primary market has yet to recover from this debacle. In the late 1990s, moreover, the Indian corporate sector was in the midst of a structural transformation with the old economy companies stocks doing badly in the face of global competition while software companies delivered outstanding financial results. The stock market also rewarded the new economy stocks with high valuations. In this environment, it was difficult for most old economy companies to come to the market with a credible business plan. Software companies in India have used a stock market listing primarily to establish a valuation and create an Ishan Institute of Management & Technology 41
Current scenario of Capital Market in India. acquisition currency as their large positive cash flows leave them with little need for additional funding. At the same time, SEBI has been concerned about public capital raising by companies with no track record. Newly set up software companies, entertainment companies and internet companies with no tangible assets pose particular problems of valuation. In this situation, SEBI has moved half-way towards a QIB (Qualified Institutional Buyers) market for some of these stocks. This mandatory gatekeeping approach is discussed later in this paper. In 1999-2000, a total of Rs 78 billion was raised in the Indian capital market, of which about Rs 45 billion was in the form of equity and the balance in the form of debt. More details about the Indian primary market are available in the Sideshows. (see 'Capital raised from the primary market', 'Industrywise classification' and 'Sizewise classification') Disclosure and corporate governance India moved from a merit based regulation to a disclosure based regulation of the primary market with the establishment of the Securities and Exchange Board of India (SEBI) in 1992. The level of disclosure has increased progressively in recent years as SEBI has attempted to bring disclosure requirements up to international levels. This is an ongoing exercise. In the field of continuing disclosure, listed companies are now required to disclose unaudited financial results on a quarterly basis, and there is now a subject these results to limited auditor review. The Accounting Standards Board set up by the accounting profession is engaged in a major exercise to bring Indian accounting standards on par with those of the IASC (International Accounting Standards Committee). SEBI is now in the process of implementing the Corporate Governance Code framed by the Birla Committee through the listing agreement. Under this code, companies are required to have a minimum number of independent directors, and to have an audit committee. Globalisation
Current scenario of Capital Market in India. India operates a rigorous system of exchange controls on the capital account. However, a window has been created for foreign portfolio investment. As on March 31, 2000, there were 506 Foreign Institutional Investors (FIIs) registered with SEBI. These FIIs had in the aggregate invested $11.23 billion in the Indian stock market; this represents about 5 per cent of the market capitalisation. Sideshow, 'FII Investment', provides trends regarding FII investments in the last few years. Indian companies have also been allowed to issue shares outside the country in the form of GDRs (Global Depository Receipts) and ADRs (American Depository Receipts). From 1992-93 to 199899, Indian companies raised Rs 274 billion in this form (see Sideshow, Euro issues by Indian companies). Any holder of ADRs and GDRs can convert these into the underlying domestic shares. However conversion in the opposite direction is not permitted. Mutual funds As on March 31, 2000, there were 37 mutual funds registered with SEBI. This is in addition to the countrys largest and oldest mutual fund, the Unit Trust of India, which is not yet under SEBIs regulatory purview. These mutual funds had floated a total of 330 different mutual fund schemes, which together controlled assets of Rs 1.1 trillion ($ 25 billion) representing about 11per cent of the market capitalisation. Details regarding annual resource mobilisation by mutual funds are available in Sideshow, 'Mutual fund resource mobilisation'. Investor population and profile According to the investor survey carried out by the National Council of Applied Economic Research (NCAER) together with SEBI, about 8per cent of all households hold equity shares or debentures. This constitutes an investor base of 19 million individuals. Investors in mutual funds numbered about 23 million thanks mainly to the long established Unit Trust of India. Allowing for common ownership of shares and mutual funds, there are probably about 30 million direct and indirect investors in the Indian capital market. The share of household financial savings that goes to the capital market is very small at around 3 per cent (see Sideshow, 'Instrument-wise flow of household financial savings'). This share had Ishan Institute of Management & Technology 43

Derivatives market Indias fledgling index futures market is less than six months old and the trading volume is far below even one per cent of the cash market volumes. Global experience suggests that the market may still be in the initial stage of low awareness and low acceptance, and that the market could pick up in coming months. There are also plans to introduce new derivative products.
Unit II
Classification of capital market Primary market Secondary market
PRIMARY MARKET
The primary is that part of the capital markets that deals with the issuance of new securities. Companies, governments or public sector institutions can obtain funding through the sale of a new stock or bond issue. This is typically done through a syndicate of securities dealers. The process of selling new issues to investors is called underwriting. In the case of a new stock issue, this sale is an initial public offering (IPO). Dealers earn a commission that is built into the price of the security offering, though it can be found in the prospectus. The primary market for equity, which consists of both the initial public offering (IPO)market and the seasoned equity offering (SEO) markets, experienced considerable activity in 2005 and 2006 (Table 4.1). In 2006,Rs.30,325 crore of resources were raised onthis market, of which Rs.9,918 crore were made up by 55 companies which were listed for the first time (IPOs). The number of IPOs per year has risen steadily from 2002 onwards. A level of 55 IPOs in the year translates to roughly 4 IPOs every month. The mean IPO size, which was elevated in 2005, returned to Rs.180 crore, which is similar to the value prevalent in 2003. 4.3 The primary issuance of debt securities, as per SEBI, fell to a low of around Rs. 66 crore in 2006, which is one facet of the far-reaching difficulties of the debt market. Unlike equity securities, debt securities issued at previous dates are redeemed by companies every year. Hence, a year with a low issuance of fresh debt securities is a year in which the stock of outstanding debt securities drops. In addition to resource mobilisation by the issuance of debt and equity securities, one of the most important mechanisms of financing that has been used by Indian firms is retained earnings, which are also a part of equity financing.

SECONDARY MARKET:
Outstanding securities are traded in the secondary market, which is commonly known as stock market or stock exchange. In the secondary market, the investors can sell and buy securities. Stock markets predominantly deal in the equity shares. Debt instruments like bonds and debentures are also traded in the stock market. Dematerialization Indian investor community has undergone sea changes in the past few years. India now has a very large investor population and ever increasing volumes of trades. However, this continuous growth in activities has also increased problems associated with stock trading. Most of these problems arise due to the intrinsic nature of paper based trading and settlement, like theft or loss of share certificates. This system requires handling of huge volumes of paper leading to increased costs and inefficiencies. Risk exposure of the investor also increases due to this trading in paper. Some of these risks are : Delay in transfer of shares. Possibility of forgery on various documents leading to bad deliveries, legal disputes etc. Possibility of theft of share certificates. Prevalence of fake certificates in the market. Mutilation or loss of share certificates in transit. The physical form of holding and trading in securities also acts as a bottleneck for broking community in capital market operations. Ishan Institute of Management & Technology 46
Current scenario of Capital Market in India. The introduction of NSE and BOLT has increased the reach of capital market manifolds. The increase in number of investors participating in the capital market has increased the possibility of being hit by a bad delivery. The cost and time spent by the brokers for rectification of these bad deliveries tends to be higher with the geographical spread of the clients. The increase in trade volumes lead to exponential rise in the back office operations thus limiting the growth potential of the broking members. The inconvenience faced by investors (in areas that are far flung and away from the main metros) in settlement of trade also limits the opportunity for such investors, especially in participating in auction trading. This has made the investors as well as broker wary of Indian capital market. In this scenario dematerialized trading is certainly a welcome move. What is Dematerialization? Dematerialization or "Demat" is a process whereby your securities like shares, debentures etc, are converted into electronic data and stored in computers by a Depository. Securities registered in your name are surrendered to depository participant (DP) and these are sent to the respective companies who will cancel them after "Dematerialization" and credit your depository account with the DP. The securities on Dematerialization appear as balances in your depository account. These balances are transferable like physical shares. If at a later date, you wish to have these "demat" securities converted back into paper certificates, the Depository helps you to do this. Depository Depository functions like a securities bank, where the dematerialized physical securities are traded and held in custody. This facilitates faster, risk free and low cost settlement. Depository is much like a bank and perform many activities that are similar to a bank. Following table compares the two. Bank Holds funds in accounts Transfers funds between accounts Transfers without handling money Safekeeping of money NSDL and CDS Ishan Institute of Management & Technology 47 Depository Holds securities in account Transfers securities between accounts Transfers without handling securities Safekeeping of securities
Current scenario of Capital Market in India. At present there are two depositories in India, National Securities Depository Limited (NSDL) and Central Depository Services (CDS). NSDL is the first Indian depository, it was inaugurated in November 1996. NSDL was set up with an initial capital of US$28mn, promoted by Industrial Development Bank of India (IDBI), Unit Trust of India (UTI) and National Stock Exchange of India Ltd. (NSEIL). Later, State Bank of India (SBI) also became a shareholder. The other depository is Central Depository Services (CDS). It is still in the process of linking with the stock exchanges. It has registered around 20 DPs and has signed up with 40 companies. It had received a certificate of commencement of business from Sebi on February 8, 1999. These depositories have appointed different Depository Participants (DP) for them. An investor can open an account with any of the depositories DP. But transfers arising out of trades on the stock exchanges can take place only amongst account-holders with NSDL's DPs. This is because only NSDL is linked to the stock exchanges (nine of them including the main ones-National Stock Exchange and Bombay Stock Exchange). In order to facilitate transfers between investors having accounts in the two existing depositories in the country the Securities and Exchange Board of India has asked all stock exchanges to link up with the depositories. Sebi has also directed the companies registrar and transfer agents to effect change of registered ownership in its books within two hours of receiving a transfer request from the depositories. Once connected to both the depositories the stock exchanges have also to ensure that inter-depository transfers take place smoothly. It also involves the two depositories connecting with each other. The NSDL and CDS have signed an agreement for inter-depository connectivity. Depositiory Participant NSDL carries out its activities through various functionaries called business partners who include Depository Participants (DPs), Issuing corporates and their Registrars and Transfer Agents, Clearing corporations/ Clearing Houses etc. NSDL is electronically linked to each of these business partners via a satellite link through Very Small Aperture Terminals (VSATs). The entire integrated system (including the VSAT linkups and the software at NSDL and each business partner's end) has been named as the "NEST" [National Electronic Settlement & Transfer] system. Ishan Institute of Management & Technology 48
Current scenario of Capital Market in India. The investor interacts with the depository through a depository participant of NSDL. A DP can be a bank, financial institution, a custodian or a broker Just as one opens a bank account in order to avail of the services of a bank, an investor opens a depository account with a depository participant in order to avail of depository facilities. Benefits of demat Transacting the depository way has several advantages over the traditional system of transacting using share certificates. Some of the benefits are:
Trading in demat segment completely eliminates the risk of bad deliveries, which in turn eliminates all cost and wastage of time associated with follow up for rectification. This reduction in risk associated with bad delivery 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 also avoid the cost of courier/ notarization/ the need for further follow-up with your broker for shares returned for company objection In case the certificates are lost in transit or when the share certificates become mutilated or misplaced, to obtain duplicate certificates, you may have to spend at least Rs500 for indemnity bond, newspaper advertisement etc, which can be completely eliminated in the demat form.
You can also receive your bonuses and rights into your depository account as a direct credit, thus eliminating risk of loss in transit. You can also expect a lower interest charge for loans taken against demat shares as compared to the interest for loan against physical shares. This could result in a saving of about 0.25% to 1.5%. Some banks have already announced this.
RBI has increased the limit of loans against dematerialized securities as collateral to Rs2mn per borrower as against Rs1mn 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. Ishan Institute of Management & Technology 49

* Many brokers offer reduced brokerage for sell of dematerialized securities since they would not have fear of bad delivery Bank Accounts How to open a bank account with a DP Opening a depository account is as simple as opening a bank account. You can open a depository account with any DP convenient to you. To open an account you have to:

Fill up the account opening form, which is available with the DP. Sign the DP-client agreement, which defines the rights and duties of the DP and the person wishing to open the account. Receive your client account number (client ID). This client ID along with your DP ID gives you a unique identification in the depository system.
There is no restriction on the number of depository accounts a person can open. However, if your existing physical shares are in joint names, you have to open the account in the same order of names before you submit your share certificates for demat. A sole holder of the share certificates cannot add more names as joint holders at the time of dematerializing his share certificates.
Current scenario of Capital Market in India. However, if the investor wants to transfer the ownership from his individual name to a joint name, he should first open an account as the sole holder (account A) and dematerialize the share certificates. He should then open another depository account (account B) in which he is the first holder and the other person is the second holder and make an off market transfer of the shares from the account A to account B. The investor will incur a charge on this transaction. Alternatively, the certificates can be transferred to the joint ownership and then sent for Dematerialization. Right now, as per the Companies Act, there is no nomination facility for shares (whether in the physical or in the electronic form). The nomination facility for shares can be availed of only when the relevant provisions in the Companies Act are amended. NSDL captures the details of the nominee when the account is opened so as to offer the facility as soon as the relevant amendments are effected in the Law. A client can choose to open more than one account with same DP. In addition to this, he has a choice of opening accounts with more than one DP. However a broker can open just one Clearing Member account per card/ stock exchange for clearing purpose, but he can still open multiple beneficiary accounts Beneficiary is the personal account wherein brokers can keep their personal holdings. A broker has only one Clearing Member-pool-account. One Clearing Member pool account is opened per card/ stock exchange to settle trades in the dematerialized form. The Clearing Corporation/ House just deals with one designated account for pay-in and payout and the broker's clients know to which account they have to deliver and receive securities from. A clearing member cannot hold his personal holdings in his clearing member account. A broker may deal in the depository system as a clearing member only through a special account, known as the Clearing Member account. This account can be used only for clearing purposes and not for holding his own securities in it. As this is a transitory account, the securities held in this account are not eligible for corporate actions. Therefore, the broker will have to open a separate beneficiary owner account to hold his investments.
Current scenario of Capital Market in India. There is no compulsion for the client to open his account with the same DP as that of his broker. Even if he has an account with another DP, he can carry out normal business with his broker. There is no loss in operational efficiency. But it is possible that opening account with his broker's DP may work out to his advantage, as some DPs may offer special charge structure if the broker and his clients are dealing through him. How to choose a DP Following are the few aspects that you should consider before choosing a DP Branch-level service. Most DPs offer depository services from their main branch as well as through other branches and franchisees. Higher the number of branches your DP has, (which offer depository services) greater will be the geographical convenience you will have. Recently Department of Telecommunications has allowed the DPs (only bank-DPs at present) to connect their entire internal network to NSDL. The NSDL is making changes in its software for DPs to meet the DoT conditions. After it is done DPs will be able to execute your instructions directly at the branch level thus saving time and improving efficiency. So check before opening an account whether your DP (if it is a bank-DP) intends to interconnect its branch network with that of NSDL. Before opening an account with a DP you should also check whether the DP is offering all the services through its branches. DPs mandate a time limit for submission of debit instructions before settlement pay-in time. It should be checked whether the time limit applies equally to all the branches (or franchisees) of the DP or whether it varies.
Backup facilities
Current scenario of Capital Market in India. Having an adequate backup system is extremely necessary for a DP. In case of a system failure all the data could be lost if backup facilities are not present. Although depositories too have the data with them but a strong system with your DP ensures no risks and hassles. So before opening an account get details from your DP about its computer system's technical specifications and backup facilities. Safe procedures. Your securities account can get debited only if you submit to your DP a duly filled and signed 'delivery instruction' (debit instruction) form (separate for market trades and off-market transfers) that authorizes the DP to debit your account. You will execute this form only when you have sold shares. But you could have worries that some one else can forge your signature on such a form, which your DP will not be able to detect, and your account will get debited .To get rid of these worries you should check that delivery instruction form book that you get from your DP must be serial-numbered with numbers unique to your account and recorded in the DP's system. Whenever there is a debit or credit in an account the DP is supposed to send a transaction statement and a holding statement to the investors within a fortnight. In case there have been no transactions they generate just a holding statement every quarter. So check for the statements regularly since all DPs are not very punctual about sending transaction and holding statements. These statements will ensure that your account is proper. There is an additional safety feature available with the DPs. You can freeze your account on the debit side if you do not want to sell the shares from your account, this will ensure that no debit is done in your account. Your account will continue to receive credits arising from fresh purchases but no debit will be permitted. A special form, that you can get from the DP, is executed that instructs your DP to freeze your account (only for the debit side or completely). When you want to sell your shares you can execute the same form to unlock your account.
Customer Service Ishan Institute of Management & Technology 54
Current scenario of Capital Market in India. DPs should have an adequate customer service facilities. This is one of the most important aspects while deciding your DP. At some time or other you will need some information on your account. Your DP should be able to provide you quick service, so check whether your DP has a dedicated customer service department. If you are not happy with the service you get from your DP or you are not sure that your shares will be safe you should not think twice of taking your shares to another DP. Dematerialization And Rematerialization How To Dematerialize Your Shares To dematerialize your share certificates you have to:

Fill up a dematerialization request form, which is available with your DP; Submit your share certificates along with the form; (write "surrendered for demat" on the face of the certificate before submitting it for demat) Receive credit for the dematerialized shares into your account in 15 days.
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 that security. The investor can dematerialize only those certificates that are already registered in his name and belong to the list of securities admitted for Dematerialization at NSDL. Shares held in street name (market deliveries) cannot be dematerialized. If the share certificates that investor wants to dematerialize do not belong to the list of securities eligible for Dematerialization specified by NSDL, he can approach the company and request them to sign up with NSDL to make their securities available for Dematerialization. Odd lot share certificates can also be dematerialized. No transfer deed is required for dematerializing certificates, the certificates have to be accompanied by a demat request form (DRF) which can be obtained from DPs. It is compulsory to mention the ISIN number of the company while filling up the Demat Request form. This, to a certain extent, ensures that the security mentioned in the Demat Request Form is the same as the Ishan Institute of Management & Technology 55
Current scenario of Capital Market in India. one the investor intends to dematerialize. However, the investor need not remember cryptic numbers and can take the help of his DP in filling these forms. Dematerialization is not compulsory. According to the Depositories Act, 1996, an investor has the option to hold shares either in physical or in dematerialized form. An investor can hold part of his holdings in demat form and part of his holdings in the form of share certificates for the same security. Although the depository would be a registered owner of securities in the depository, a transaction involving dematerialized securities would not be considered as benami transactions, the Benami Transactions (Prohibition) Act, 1988 have been suitably modified to exclude the securities held by a:

Depository as a registered owner DP as an agent of the depository.
Securities bearing the same distinctive numbers as demat securities can still float in the market. It is a case of forged certificates and normal procedures that are being followed in the physical market will be used to weed them out. The concerned stock exchanges where the securities are listed are informed of the details of securities dematerialized and rematerialized. An investor can dematerialize shares that are pledged with a bank, which is a DP as well. How To Rematerialize Shares. During a rematerialization process, the request goes from the DP to the R&T agent via NSDL. The R&T Agent, after processing the request, will print and dispatch the share certificate directly to you. No transfer duty will be charged to you when you rematerialize your shares. You have the option of rematerializing your total holdings or part of it. In addition to this, you have the option to get the certificates in market lot or jumbo lot. If your name has been wrongly spelt on the certificates given to you after a remat, you can send it for rectification to the R&T agent along with the relevant documents. Ishan Institute of Management & Technology 56
Current scenario of Capital Market in India. Trading Trading in dematerialized securities is quite similar to trading in physical securities. The major difference is that at the time of settlement, instead of delivery/ receipt of securities in the physical form, it is done through account transfer. An investor cannot trade in dematerialized securities through his DP. Trading at the stock exchanges can be done only through a registered trading member (broker) of the stock exchange irrespective of whether the securities are held in physical or dematerialized form. DPs role will only be to facilitate settlement of trade in the dematerialized form, by transferring securities from and to the account of the investor, for selling and buying respectively. Trading in dematerialized securities is presently available at NSE, BSE, CSE, DSE, BgSE, LSE, MSE, ISE & OTCEI. These exchanges have a segment exclusive for trading in dematerialized securities and a segment where trades could be settled either in the physical or in the dematerialized form as per the choice of the delivering client. In unified (erstwhile - physical) segment securities can be delivered either in the physical form or in the dematerialized form at the choice of the delivering party. However, securities that have to be mandatorily settled in demat form (both by institutional investors & all category of investors) cannot be settled in physical form. Also for securities that have to be mandatorily settled in demat form by all categories of investors the concept of market lot is eliminated ie the tradable lot is one share from the date they become compulsory. Since January 4, 1999, all category of investors can deliver only in dematerialized form with respect to a select list of securities (which is expanded from time to time). For these scrips, from the date they become compulsory, the concept of market lot is eliminated ie the tradable lot for these scrips is one share. This will be applicable only at those exchanges that have joined the depository. Also, from January 15, 1998, select category of investors can deliver only in dematerialized form with respect to a select list of securities (which is expanded from time to time). Ishan Institute of Management & Technology 57
Current scenario of Capital Market in India. Consequently there will be separate price quotes available for each scrips in both the segments. The trades in each of these segments cannot be netted off with each other. The facility of delivering dematerialized securities in the physical segments of the stock exchanges is available for all the companies that are eligible for dematerialization. This also applies to delivery against auction of securities in the physical segment. However, at DSE dematerialized securities can be presently traded only in the exclusive demat segment. They are not accepted as good delivery in the physical segment. At LSE, dematerialized securities can be delivered only in the unified (erstwhile - physical) segment. Presently, LSE does not have an exclusive demat segment. Non pari-passu shares (like partly paid up bonus/ right shares with pro-rata dividend) are identified with separate ISIN (scrip codes) and can be traded separately. These can also be delivered against obligation in pari-passu shares along with dividend cheques. In the unified (erstwhile - physical) segment, auction trade obligations can be met & bad delivery rectification can be made by delivering dematerialized securities. Trades in each segment have to be settled separately and cannot be netted between segments for settlement. Any investor who buys securities from any of the stock exchanges where dematerialized securities are available, may receive his delivery in the dematerialized form as dematerialized shares can be delivered in the physical segment at the option of the seller. Therefore those investors who buy securities from these exchanges should necessarily open a depository account to take delivery of these shares.
Squaring off
Current scenario of Capital Market in India. It is possible to square off trades in dematerialized securities. In the exclusive demat segment, the trades can be squared off within the same day as this segment follows a rolling settlement cycle. In the physical segment the trades can be squared off within the trading period specified for that stock exchange. This is presently five working days, between Wednesday to Tuesday at NSE, Monday to Friday at BSE and Thursday to Wednesday at CSE. At CSE for some of the shares (classified as specified group) the trading period is 14 days. If an investor squares off his position within the trading period, he does not need to open a depository account. Depository account is required for taking delivery or giving delivery of dematerialized securities in case of buy or sell respectively. In case the investor squares off his trade, and hence, does not have to take or give delivery of dematerialized securities, the depository account is not used. As in the physical segment, an investor can go long or short in the demat segment also. How to access a scrip At NSE, the AE and BE segments can be accessed by selecting the scrip you want to trade in and typing AE or BE in place of EQ. At the BSE, all scrips have a scrip code. For going to the Demat segment, add 500000 to the scrip code. For eg If the scrip code of RIL is 325 in the physical segment, the scrip code to be typed for going to Demat segment is 500325. Trading at NSE Trading in dematerialized securities is quite similar to trading in physical securities and is done through the same "NEAT" terminals of the trading members (brokers).
Exclusive Demat segments. Ishan Institute of Management & Technology 59
Current scenario of Capital Market in India. On NSE, three separate segments; viz AE and BE and BT segments are available for trading only in dematerialized securities. The difference between the segments being that, in BE segment the concept of market lot is eliminated ie the minimum tradable quantity is one share. However, securities that have to be mandatorily settled in demat form by all class of investors cannot be traded in the AE segment. Trades in AE & BE segments follow rolling settlement of T+5 working days cycle and are cleared & settled through NSCCL, the Clearing Corporation (CC) of NSE. Trades settled in the AE segment on Wednesday follow rolling settlement cycle of T+3 working days. Trades in BT segment are not settled through NSCCL, but are settled bilaterally by the trading members. Unified (erstwhile - physical) segments. In EQ and TT segments securities can be delivered either in the physical form or in the dematerialized form at the choice of the delivering party. In the EQ segment, auction trade obligations can be met and bad delivery rectification can be made by delivering dematerialized securities. Trades in EQ segment follow account period settlement (Wednesday to Tuesday) cycle and are cleared &settled through NSCCL. Trades in TT segment are not settled through NSCCL, but are settled bilaterally by the trading members. Trading at BSE Trading in dematerialized securities is quite similar to trading in physical securities and is done through the same "BOLT" terminals of the trading members(brokers). Trading at CSE Trading in dematerialized securities is quite similar to trading in physical securities and is done through the same "C-Star" terminals of the trading members (brokers). Trading at DSE Ishan Institute of Management & Technology 60
Current scenario of Capital Market in India. Trading in dematerialized securities is quite similar to trading in physical securities and is done through the same "DOTS" terminals of the trading members (brokers). Presently not all securities are available for trading at DSE. Only a select list of dematerialized scrips can be presently traded at DSE only in the exclusive demat segment. Trading at BSE Trading in dematerialized securities is quite similar to trading in physical securities and is done through the same "BEST" terminals of the trading members(brokers). BE and BO are segments available for trading exclusively in dematerialized securities. Trades in BE and BO segments follow rolling settlement cycle of T+5 working days and are cleared & settled through the Clearing House (CH) of BgSE. The only difference between BE and BO is that while trading in BE segment is in normal market lots, trading in BO segment is in units of one security. Trading at LSE Trading in dematerialized securities is quite similar to trading in physical securities and is done through the same "VECTOR" terminals of the trading members (brokers). Trading at OTCEI Trading in dematerialized securities is quite similar to trading in physical securities and is done through the same "OASIS" terminals of the trading members(brokers). AE and BE are segments available for trading exclusively in dematerialized securities. Trades in AE and BE segments follow rolling settlement cycle of T+5 working days and are cleared & settled through NSCCL, the Clearing Corporation (CC) of NSE which also acts as the clearing agent of OTCEI.
Current scenario of Capital Market in India. The only difference between AE and BE is that while trading in AE segment is in normal market lots, trading in BE segment is in units of one security. However, securities that have to be mandatorily settled in demat form by all class of investors cannot be traded in the AE segment. Settlement The settlement of trades in the stock exchanges is undertaken by the clearing corporation (CC)/ clearing house(CH) of the corresponding stock exchanges. While the settlement of dematerialized securities is effected through depository, the funds settlement is effected through the clearing banks. The physical securities are settled by the clearing members directly with the CC/ CH. Exclusive demat segment follows rolling settlement (T+5) cycle and the unified (erstwhile physical) segment follows account period settlement cycle. In case of rolling settlement cycle, the account period is reduced to one day.
In case of settlement of trades done in exclusive demat segments, the pay-in and pay out of funds and securities are effected on the same day afternoon and evening (same day) thus reducing the blockage of funds and limiting exposure to the clearing corporation.
Settlement of funds is effected through the clearing banks and depository plays no role in this. Settlement of securities is effected through NSDL depository system. Clearing and settlement of the regular market trades is effected through the clearing members of the clearing houses of respective stock exchanges. All trading members of stock exchanges are clearing members of clearing houses. In addition, for settlement of institutional trades, custodians are also allowed to act as clearing members.
Clearing members of clearing house, dealing in dematerialized securities are expected to open a clearing account with any DP for the purpose of settling trades in dematerialized securities. As, in the mixed (unified) segment, there is a possibility for all clearing members to receive dematerialized securities, they are expected to open clearing accounts.
If there is any short delivery at the time of pay-in of securities, these short positions are auctioned in the Demat segment as done in the Unified (erstwhile-physical) segment.
Current scenario of Capital Market in India. Rolling settlement (T+5) cycle In this case, the trading period (T) is one day. For the trading period comprising one day, settlement of trades on the basis of netted obligation is on the 5th working day from the trade day ie on T+5 basis. At NSE, for trades executed on Wednesday in the AE segment, settlement on the basis of net obligation is on the 3rd working day ie on T+3 basis. The deadline time for pay-in and pay-out of securities to the Clearing Corporation/ Clearing House (through NSDL depository system) is effected till 4.00 p.m. for NSE and 1.30 p.m. for BSE, CSE and DSE on settlement day (ie 5th working day from trade day) varies from exchange to exchange. Pay-in and pay-out of funds to the clearing bank (NSDL has no role in this) is also on the same day - settlement day (ie 5th working day from trade day). As in the physical segment, cumulative obligation statement for daily trades is downloaded by Clearing Corporation/ Clearing House at the end of the day. The final/ net obligation statement is downloaded by the Clearing Corporation/ Clearing House on the 2nd working day from the trade day. In case of CSE, the final/ net obligation statement is downloaded by the Clearing House on the next working day from trade day. Short deliveries, if any is auctioned on the 6th working day from the trade day ie one day after the settlement day. In case of NSE, auction trade is on the 7th working day from the trade day. The time for auction trade is announced by the exchanges and may vary from one exchange to another. Settlement of auction trades is on the 2nd working day from the auction trade day. The procedure for settlement of auction trades is similar to settlement of market trades. For trades executed on Wednesday (TD 1):

Final/ Net obligation statement download - Friday (T+2nd working day) Settlement day (SD 1) ie pay in and pay out of funds and securities - next Wednesday (T+5th working day) Auction trade day (ATD 1) - next Thursday (T+6th working day) Auction settlement day (ASD 1) - Monday (2nd working day from auction trade day ie T+8th working day) Ishan Institute of Management & Technology 63
Current scenario of Capital Market in India. Similarly, for trades executed on Thursday (TD 2):

Final/ Net obligation statement download - Monday (T+2nd working day) Settlement day (SD 2) - next Thursday (T+5th working day) Auction trade day (ATD 2) - next Friday (T+6th working day) Auction settlement day (ASD 2) - Tuesday (2nd working day from auction trade day ie T+8th working day)
Selling And Buying of Shares How To Sell Dematerialized Shares Selling dematerialized shares in stock exchanges is similar to the procedure for selling physical shares. Instead of delivering physical shares to the broker, you instruct your DP to debit your account with the number of shares sold by you and credit your broker's clearing account. For this, a delivery instruction has to be given to your DP in a standardized format, which will be available with your DP. In short, for selling demat shares;
You can sell shares in any of the stock exchanges linked to a depository through a broker of your choice. Give an instruction to your DP to debit your account and credit your broker's clearing member pool account. (this is a depository account used exclusively for settling transactions by a broker)
On the pay-in day, your broker gives instruction to his DP for delivery of the shares to clearing corporation of the relevant stock exchange.
The broker receives payment from the clearing corporation You receive payment from your broker for the sale in the same manner you would receive payment for a sale in the physical mode. Ishan Institute of Management & Technology 64
Current scenario of Capital Market in India. How To Buy Dematerialized Shares. The procedure for buying dematerialized shares in stock exchanges is similar to the procedure for buying physical shares. When you want to purchase shares in electronic form, you have to instruct your broker to purchase the dematerialized shares from the stock exchanges linked to a depository. Once the order is executed, you have to instruct your DP (vide a simple format which is available with the DP) to receive securities from your broker's clearing account. Alternatively, you may give a standing instruction to receive credits into your account and do away with giving a separate receipt instruction each time you expect a credit. You have to ensure that your broker too gives a matching instruction to his DP to transfer the shares purchased on your behalf into your depository account. You should also ensure that your broker transfers the shares purchased from his clearing account to your depository account, before the book closure. This is really important because shares that remain in the clearing account of the broker on the book closure/ record date will not be eligible for corporate benefits. In brief, the transactions relating to purchase of shares are:
You can purchase shares in any of the stock exchanges connected to a depository through a broker of your choice and make a payment to your broker; Your broker receives credit in his clearing account with his DP on the pay-out day; Broker gives instructions to his DP to debit his clearing account and credit your account; You instruct your DP for receiving credit into your depository account either through a specific receipt instruction or using the "standing instruction" facility. In case you are not using the "standing instruction" facility then, your depository account is credited only if the instructions given by you and your broker match.
Charges
NSDL Charges for DPs Ishan Institute of Management & Technology 65
Current scenario of Capital Market in India. NSDL does not charge the investor directly but charges its DPs, who are free to charge their clients. NSDL charges its DPs under the following heads:
Transaction Fees : Market Trade : sale - nil; purchase - 5 basis points (ie 0.05% of the value of net receipts to a
clearing members account) Off Market Trade : sale - nil; purchase - 10 basis points (ie 0.1% of value of securities)
Custody Fees :
3.5 basis points p.a.(ie 0.035% p.a. of average value of securities)
Rematerialization :
Rs. 10/- per certificate One time payment scheme: NSDL has announced a new scheme under which, if a company makes a one-time payment of 5 basis points (0.05%) of the average market capitalization during the preceding 26 weeks, then NSDL will not charge any custody fees to the DPs for shares of that company. Future issues by such companies would require a payment of 5 basis points on the new share capital created. The valuation for new shares will be done at the issue price. Companies would not be required to pay any additional amount, if they make a bonus issue.
Current scenario of Capital Market in India. Other Services Besides demat and trading Depositories also offer other services, these are: Pledging/ hypothecation of dematerialized securities. Electronic credit in public offerings of companies. Receipt of non-cash corporate benefits such as bonus, rights in electronic form. Stock lending and borrowing. Transmission of securities. Pledging Dematerialized shares could be pledged; in fact, this is more advantageous as compared to pledging share certificates. How to pledge your Demat shares

Both you (pledgor) as well as the lender (pledgee) must have depository accounts. You must initiate the pledge by submitting the details of the securities to be pledged in a standard format (available with DPs). The pledgee should confirm the request through his DP. Once this is done, your securities are pledged All commercial documentation between the pledgor and the pledgee are handled outside the depository system.
After you have repaid your loan, you can request for a closure of pledge by instructing your DP through a standard format. The pledgee on receiving the repayment as well as the request for closure of pledge will instruct his DP accordingly. Even the locked-in securities can be pledged, however they cannot be invoked before the lock-in release date. Ishan Institute of Management & Technology 67
Current scenario of Capital Market in India. Even after the securities are pledged, the pledgor continues to remain the beneficiary holder of those securities and will receive benefits of a corporate action, if any. Initial Public Offerings Credits for public offers can be directly received into demat account. In the public issue application form of depository eligible companies, there will be a provision to indicate the manner in which securities should be allotted to the applicant. All you have to do is to mention your client account number and the name and identification number of your DP. Any allotment due to you will be credited into your account. If the applicant is allotted securities in dematerialized form, but the details regarding the beneficiary account are incomplete/ wrong, the person will get physical delivery of allotted securities. If securities are allotted in the dematerialized form, these would be credited to applicants account any day between allotment date and listing date, at the discretion of the company. The issuer company/ their R&T agent will forward the applicant the allotment advice giving the number of shares allotted in dematerialized form. Through this you can come to know that you have been allotted shares. An amendment to the company law requiring all future public issues above Rs100mn to compulsorily offer securities in dematerialized form is awaiting legislative approval. After this all the issues above Rs100mn will require investors to trade only in demat way. Partly paid up and fully paid up shares in the depository, will be given separate ISINs (International Securities Identification Number). These are also traded separately at the stock exchanges. The company issues call notices to the beneficial holders of securities in the electronic form. The details of such beneficial holders will be provided to the issuer/ their R&T agent by NSDL. After Ishan Institute of Management & Technology 68
Current scenario of Capital Market in India. the call money realization, issuer/ their R&T agent will electronically convert the partly paid up shares to fully paid up shares. Receipt Of Cash/ Non-Cash Benefits When any corporate event such as rights or bonus or dividend is announced for a particular security, depository will give the details of all the clients having electronic holdings in that security as of the record date to the registrar. The registrar will then calculate the corporate benefits due to all the shareholders. The disbursement of cash benefits such as dividend/ interest will be done directly by the registrar. In case of non-cash benefits, depository will directly credit the securities entitlements in the depository accounts of all those clients who have opted for electronic allotment based on the information provided by the registrar. The bonus/ rights issue against holding in dematerialized form can be either in the physical/ dematerialized form as per the choice of the investor. If no choice is given, by default, the securities will be issued in the physical form. Even if an investor has holdings in physical form, he can receive the bonus/ rights issue against this in the dematerialized form. In case of fractional part, as in the physical segment, it would be paid in cash and the remaining whole part would be credited to the investors account. The statement of holding and transaction statement is sent by the investors DP, it will show the bonus/ rights credit into investors account. This report is sent to the investor every fifteen days. In addition, an allotment advise will be send by the issuer/ their R&T agent for bonus/ rights entitlement.
Stock Lending And borrowing Ishan Institute of Management & Technology 69
Current scenario of Capital Market in India. Through the depository account securities in the demat form can be easily lent/ borrowed. Securities can be lent or borrowed in electronic form through an approved intermediary, who has opened a special 'intermediary' account with a DP. Lending Securities You have to instruct your DP through a standard format (which is available with your DP) to deposit your securities with the intermediary. If the intermediary accepts your deposit of securities, the securities will be moved from your account into the intermediary's account. If you wish to recall the securities lent by you, you can make a request vide a standard format available with your DP. How To Borrow Securities You have to instruct your DP through a standard format (which is available with your DP) to borrow securities from the intermediary. If the intermediary accepts your request, the securities will be moved from the intermediary's account to your account. If you wish to return the securities borrowed by you, you can make a request vide a standard format available with your DP. Transmission Of Securities Transmission of securities due to death, lunacy, bankruptcy, insolvency or by any other lawful means other than transfer is also possible in the depository system. In the case of transmission, the claimant will have to fill in a transmission request form, (which is available with the DP) supported by valid documents. The DP, after ensuring that the application is genuine, will transfer securities to the account of the claimant. For this, the claimant must have a depository account. The major advantage in transmission of dematerialized holdings is that the transmission formalities for all securities held with a DP can be completed in one go, unlike in the case of share certificates, where the claimant will have to interact with each issuing company or its R&T Agent.
Current scenario of Capital Market in India. In case where the deceased was one of the joint holders in the Client account, the surviving client(s) shall be the person(s) recognized by depository as having title to the securities held in that joint Client account. In case where the deceased was a sole holder of the Client account, his legal heir(s) or the legal representative(s) will be the person(s) recognized by depository as having title to the securities held in that sole Client account Security National Security and Depository Limited claims to have undertaken sufficient security measures. These measures are:
A DP can be operational only after registration by Sebi, which is based on the recommendation from NSDL and Sebis own independent evaluation. Sebi has
prescribed criteria for becoming a DP in the regulations.
DPs are allowed to effect any debit and credit to an account only on the basis of valid instruction from the client.
Every day, there is a system driven mandatory reconciliation between the DP and NSDL. There are periodic inspections into the activities of both DP and R&T agent by NSDL. This also includes records based on which the debit/ credit are effected.
The data interchange between NSDL and its business partners is protected by standard protection measures such as encryption. This is a SEBI requirement.
There are no direct communication links between two business partners and all communications between two business partners are routed through NSDL
All investors have a right to receive their statement of accounts periodically from the DP. Every month NSDL forwards statement of accounts to a random sample of investors as a counter check. Ishan Institute of Management & Technology 71
In the depository, the depository holds the investor holdings on trust. Therefore, if the DP goes bankrupt the creditors of the DP will have no access to the holdings in the name of the clients of the DP. These investors can then either dematerialize their holdings or transfer them to a different account held with another DP.
Investor grievance: All grievances of the investors are to be resolved by the concerned DP. If they fail to do so the investor has the right to approach NSDL.
Insurance Cover: NSDL has taken a comprehensive insurance policy to protect the interest of the investors in cases of failure of the DP to resolve a genuine loss. The details of the policy is as under:
Upper limit per claim : Rs200mn Number of claims allowed : unlimited Minimum value of the claim : Rs150,000 To cover claims valued less than Rs150,000 NSDL has an investor protection fund in place.
Besides all these safety measures efforts have been done to make this electronic system foolproof. Computer And Communication Infrastructure. The systems are accepted by NSDL only after a rigorous testing procedure. Machine level back up: The IBM mainframe situated at "Trade World" (NSDL office in Mumbai) in which the data is processed has adequate redundancy built into its configuration. There is a standby central processing unit (CPU) to which processing can be switched over to in case of main system CPU failure. The disk has RAID implementation, which ensures that a single point failure will not lead to loss in data. System has spare disk configuration where data is automatically copied from the main disk upon encountering the first failure (due to RAID implementation - first failure does not result in loss of data). Ishan Institute of Management & Technology 72
Current scenario of Capital Market in India. All network components like router, communication controllers etc, have on-line redundancy and thus a failure does not result in loss of transaction. Disaster back up site: In addition, a disaster back up site equipped with a computer identical to the mainframe computer & computing resources has been set up at a remote location about 175 km away from Mumbai. This site has been tested for operations from the site. Back-up in case of power failure: Continuity in power supply to the main systems is assured by providing for; dual uninterrupted power supply (UPS) for IBM-Mainframe and related components wherein the two UPSs are connected in tandem. In case of failure of primary UPS, the secondary UPS takes over instantaneously and thus, there is no interruption in operation, and back-up diesel generator set. If an investor looses his statement of holdings, he may inform his DP and obtain a duplicate statement of holdings. The loss of statement of holding will not effect his actual holdings. If a DP goes bankrupt, there is no need for an investor to be unduly concerned as enough provisions are there for the investor to transfer his account from the defunct DP to another DP or get the securities rematerialized. There cannot be any lien on the account holders assets by creditors belonging to the DP or NSDL and therefor the account holders assets are absolutely safe. There is no credit risk in case of a defunct NSDL or its DPs. Depository account details are confidential. There are strict systems and procedures established to protect the confidentiality of investor information at the depository to ensure that these are available to only authorized persons. Even a DP other than your own, cannot have access to your account.
Tax Aspect
Current scenario of Capital Market in India. In case of dematerialized holdings cost of acquisition and period of holding for calculation of capital gains tax is determined on the basis of First In First Out (FIFO) method. This is as per the amendment to the Income Tax Act. The proof of the cost of acquisition will remain to be the contract note. Demat Shares: Are They 100% Safe When you buy physical shares from the stock market, you could never be certain of the validity of the title of shares. There were many reasons- the sellers' signature did not match, or the certificates were fake, forged or stolen, and so on. Demat shares are supposed to obviate these problems. Buying shares in the demat form always guarantees you a good title as soon as the settlement is over. The biggest attraction of trading in demat shares is that the shares you buy come with a clean title and immediately after the settlement on the relevant stock exchange. Rule 100 of market regulator SEBI determines whether the shares delivered in a settlement, are good or not. Under rule 100, the shares that have been transferred any number of times can still be withdrawn by the company, if a transfer is found to be invalid for any reason. Suppose A sells physical shares to B and B gets them dematerialized. Later B sells the shares in the stock exchange and C buys them. Meanwhile A discovers that his share certificates were stolen and fraudulently sold by someone else. He gets a court order restraining the company from further transferring the shares and attaching them (currently in possession of C). This is known as 'stop transfer'. So C who has bought dematerialized shares is now struck with the shares. He cannot sell these shares since they would be frozen in his account In demat shares, pre-demat problems about the validity of a share do not effect the interest of the buyers after dematerialization. Shares go through a verification process at the registrars' before they are dematerialized. Therefore the responsibility lies with the registrar. The registrar must find a remedy if the original transfer of shares, before their dematerialization comers under doubt. But there is a catch. The Ishan Institute of Management & Technology 74
Current scenario of Capital Market in India. company and its registrars are not responsible if the reasons for original transfer being invalid were not available at the time of dematerialization. Matters have to be dealt with on a case to case basis. Which means that even demat buyer may find that his shares have been frozen in his demat account. This kind of case has to be contested in court by the parties involved. This issue is not directly addressed in The Depositories Act, 1996. Sebis regulations on depositories and depository participants also do not mention the issue. Matters get more complex if an investor has traded further in shares of the same company in his demat account. Demat shares are fungible and dont have distinctive numbers. It is not easy to track the sale or trade of shares after they are dematerialized. Auction Auctions are initiated by the Exchange on behalf of trading members for settlement related reasons. The main reasons are Shortages, Bad Deliveries and Objections. There are three types of participants in the auction market. (a) Initiator: The party who initiates the auction process is called an initiator. (b) Competitor: The party who enters on the same side as of the initiator is called a competitor. (c) Solicitor: The party who enters on the opposite side as of the initiator is called a solicitor. The trading members can participate in the Exchange initiated auctions by entering orders as a solicitor. E.g. If the Exchange conducts a Buy-In auction, the trading members entering sell orders are called solicitors. When the auction starts, the competitor period for that auction also starts. Competitor period is the period during which competitor order entries are allowed. Competitor orders are the orders which compete with the initiators order i.e. if the initiators order is a buy order, then all the buy orders for that auction other than the initiators order are competitor orders. And if the initiator order is a sell order then all the sell orders for that auction other than the initiators order are competitor orders. After the competitor period ends, the solicitor period for that auction starts. Solicitor period is the period during which solicitor order entries are allowed. Solicitor orders are the orders which are opposite to the initiator order i.e. if the initiator order is a buy order, then all the sell orders for that
Current scenario of Capital Market in India. auction are solicitor orders and if the initiator order is a sell order, then all the buy orders for that auction are solicitor orders. After the solicitor period, order matching takes place. The system calculates trading price for the auction and all possible trades for the auction are generated at the calculated trading price. After this the auction is said to be complete. Competitor period and solicitor period for any auction are set by the Exchange. Entering Auction Orders Auction order entry allows the user to enter orders into auctions that are currently running. To view the information about currently running auctions invoke Auction Inquiry screen. Further one can view one's own outstanding orders for any auction by invoking Outstanding Order Inquiry for auction market. All auction orders are valid for the trading day only. The user can do auction order entry by entering AU in the book type of the order entry screen. Symbol and Series that is currently selected in any of the market information windows (i.e. MW) provides the defaults in the auction order entry screen. If Auction OO is up for an auction that is either in a competitor or solicitor period, then the auction number has to be entered. All fields in the auction order entry screen except auction number and settlement days are same as normal market order entry screen. The screen also displays competitor period and solicitor period. The defaults that are provided on the auction inquiry screen are symbol, series, auction number, settlement days and quantity (available for auction). The user can edit the default values if required. The fields in the auction order entry screen that has to be entered are PRO/CLI selection, account number (not mandatory), participant and remarks. Solicitor period for an auction starts as soon as the auction starts. The duration of the solicitor period is set by the Exchange. The system accepts the solicitor orders in any currently running auction only if the solicitor period for that auction is in progress. Presently the trading members cannot initiate auctions in any security. They can only participate as solicitors in auctions initiated by the Exchange. In Exchange initiated auctions, the competitor period is set to zero and therefore only solicitor period is available. Entering Solicitor Order: To enter a solicitor order invoke auction order entry screen and enter the auction number or symbol series in AUC No. (auction number) field. The AUC No. and symbol series combination is validated and if an error is encountered then an appropriate error message is displayed in the message window and the focus is set on the AUC No. When the order details are Ishan Institute of Management & Technology 76
Current scenario of Capital Market in India. found to be correct, the system assigns a unique order number to the order and sends an order confirmation message to the trader workstation. If the solicitor period for that auction is over, the order is not accepted. Auction number for each security is displayed in the Auction Inquiry screen. Validation of Auction Orders: Following validation checks are performed, in addition to the routine order entry validation checks, to verify initiator orders. If the auction market is not open for trading, the user is not allowed to enter an auction order. If a trading member or a participant is suspended, then no auctions can be entered for the trading member or for the participant. If the security is not allowed to trade in the auction market or if the security is suspended, the orders for that security are not allowed. If the quantity entered exceeds Warning Quantity Percentage, the system asks the user for confirmation of the order. Any order with a price outside the Day Min/Max range is not allowed. Following validation checks are performed to verify the competitor and the solicitor orders: If a competitor order is entered, then a check is made if the auction in which order entry is desired is in the competitor period. If a solicitor order is entered, then a check is made if the auction in which order entry is desired is either in competitor period or solicitor period. Auction order entry in auctions which are yet in a pending state or which are cancelled is prohibited. Auction Order Modification The user is not allowed to modify any auction orders. Auction Order Cancellation The user can cancel any solicitor order placed by him in any auction provided the solicitor period for that auction is not over. The order cancellation procedure is similar to that of normal market. The user can also use quick order cancellation key to cancel his outstanding auction orders.
Auction Order Matching When the solicitor period for an auction is over, auction order matching starts for that auction. During this process, the system calculates the trading price for the auction based on the initiator Ishan Institute of Management & Technology 77
Current scenario of Capital Market in India. order and the orders entered during the competitor and the solicitor period. At present for Exchange initiated auctions, the matching takes place at the respective solicitor order prices. Rolling Settlement In a Rolling Settlement, all trades outstanding at end of the day have to be settled, which means that the buyer has to make payments for securities purchased and seller has to deliver the securities sold. In India, we have adopted the T+5 settlement cycle, which means that a transaction entered into on Day 1 has to be settled on the Day 1 + 5 working days, when funds pay in or securities pay out takes place. (Now we have T+2 settlement cycle) Internationally, most developed countries follow rolling settlement system. For instance, USA and UK follow a T+3 system. In a weekly settlement cycle, (currently operational in India), all transactions done during the week (which is defined as Monday to Friday for the Stock Exchange, Mumbai (BSE) and Wednesday to Tuesday for the National Stock Exchange (NSE)) can be squared off on the last day of the cycle. This means that a trader has a longer time frame to speculate. Only those transactions which are outstanding at the end of the last trading day are required to be settled by payments or deliveries. Advantages As mentioned earlier, this is the system practiced in developed countries. Pay outs are quicker than in weekly settlements, and investors will benefit from increased liquidity. The other benefit of the modified system is that it keeps cash and forward markets separate. In the current system, the trader has five days to square off his transaction which leads to a high level of speculation as people even without funds tend to "play" the market. During volatile markets, especially in a bearish market, this often leads to a payment problem which has dogged the Indian stock exchanges for a long time. It provides for a higher degree of safety, and once mechanisms such as futures and stock-lending become popular, it would result in quality speculation and genuine investor interest. Ishan Institute of Management & Technology 78
Current scenario of Capital Market in India. Rolling Settlement will keep Cash and Futures/ Speculative markets separate Currently, we have "badla", which is nothing but a carry forward mechanism. A trader takes a long position in a stock, and at settlement end, he carries forward his open position by paying badla. This effectively means that cash and forward markets are over lapping. In the Rolling Settlement, a trader has only time within the day to speculate. At end of each day, either he has to deliver securities or funds. All forward positions will be now limited to Index Futures and individual Options on stocks, thus separating cash and forward markets. Most brokers and media reports say that volumes will dry, post introduction of Rolling Settlement. Going by past track record of what happened to shares in rolling settlement, there will be a temporary dip in volumes. Time frame for speculation will get reduced from 5 days to 5 hours, which will also impact volumes. In the long term, the superior trading mechanism will instill investor confidence and volumes will rise. In the past, given the fact that trades used to happen in physical format (paper shares), settlements was a tedious process. Post dematerialization and introduction of depositories, rolling settlements has become feasible. Funds transfer still takes time. The other reason attributed by media is the presence of the "broker lobby" which used to object to this move citing reasons that trading volumes will diminish significantly post rolling settlements, impacting their business. The Securities & Exchange Board of India (SEBI) had decided to gradually introduce rolling settlements on Indian stock exchanges. This is a forward step which makes Indian markets comparable to developed markets like USA and Europe. This will give a boost to investor confidence and increase foreign inflows. At the same time, SEBI is planning to introduce futures and options, which are instruments of choice in developed countries. From July 2, 2001, Group A and Index heavy weight stocks will be put in compulsory rolling mode and hence the media hype. But we can trade in odd lot shares in rolling. Futures and Options will replace badla. SEBI had earlier allowed carry forward positions taken prior to May 14, 2001 to be "carried forward" till September 3, by which time they had to be Ishan Institute of Management & Technology 79
Current scenario of Capital Market in India. squared off. In a later note, it said, all carry forward outstanding positions from July 2 shall be allowed only with the approved deferral products in the rolling settlement and not through the weekly badla product. Given the confusion and uncertainty, we would advice retail investors to square all outstanding carry forward positions. About speculators Since settlement is now daily, there will be intra day speculation. Note only 411 scrips are getting into rolling from July 2, hence action will shift to quality B1 and B2 stocks which are not under the rolling purview. We believe SEBI to act quickly and bring all those stocks also under rolling mode. A better degree of speculative interest will re-emerge in the rolling settlement stocks. Note that when badla was banned all market players and observers felt that volumes will dry and business will evaporate. Nothing of that sort happened and markets bounced back with a vengeance. There will be a period of adjustment and volumes might see a short term dip. Rising volatility For small or mid cap stocks, the rolling settlement could lead to sharper price swings. Intra day speculation with lower volumes may lead to every significant buy or sell order having a much greater impact. Consequently, will retail investors get marginalized leading the field open to institutional players only? In the short term, this is a distinct likelihood. One should keep in mind that even in normal five day settlement cycle, big ticket orders impacted prices. This is a small price to pay as markets evolve. Intra day speculation (made famous by day traders on Nasdaq) will grow leading to more liquidity. OTCEI had similar settlement cycles and stringent conditions, but failed to get any investor support. Will the OTCEI story repeat?
Current scenario of Capital Market in India. The fundamental difference between OTCEI of the early 90s and the rolling settlement of the 22nd century is maturity. Indian markets have matured and concepts like rolling settlement, paperless trading and stringent market conditions are accepted now. Stocks on the OTCEI were companies in an early stage, most of which failed to deliver results and enthuse investors. Even when screen based trading was started by NSE, most market operators predicted that it will die and early death citing OTCEI example. On contrary, NSE flourished and thrived and completely revolutionized trading in India. OTCEI faced competition from NSE and BSE with better options. And given profile of listed stocks, it could not grow. Investor and speculative investor will be there, given most major stocks are in rolling segment now. Does this mean that price rigging and circular trading will end, making markets cleaner for genuine investors? No market and trading system is free from evils of price rigging and circular trading. To keep these anti investor activities in check is the main task of the regulator. Rolling settlements will go a long way in making the market safer for investors. This would attract more interest in the market, as investor confidence in the price discovery process will be higher. The S&P CNX Nifty What makes a good stock market index for use in an index futures and index options market? Several issues play a role in terms of the choice of index. We will discuss how the S&P CNXNifty addresses some of these issues. Diversification As mentioned earlier, a stock market index should be welldiversifi ed, thus ensuring thathedgers or speculators are not vulnerable to individualcompany or industry risk.
Market index
Current scenario of Capital Market in India. The S&P CNX Nifty is an index based upon solid economic research. It was designed not only as abarometer of market movement but also to be a foundation of the new world of financial products based on the index like index futures, index options and index funds. A trillion calculations were expended to evolve the rules inside the S&P CNX Nifty index. The results of this work are remarkably simple: (a) the correct size to use is 50, (b) stocks considered for the S&P CNX Nifty must be liquid by the impact cost criterion, (c) the largest 50 stocks that meet the criterion go into the index. S&P CNX Nifty is a contrast to the adhoc methods that have gone into index construction in the preceding years, where indexes were made out of intuition and lacked a scientific basis. The research that led up to S&P CNX Nifty is well-respected internationally as a pioneering effort in better understanding how to make a stock market index. The Nifty is uniquely equipped as an index for the index derivatives market owing to its (a) low market impact cost and (b) high hedging effectiveness. The good diversifi cation of Nifty generates low initial margin requirement. Finally, Nifty is calculated using NSE prices, the most liquid exchange in India, thus making it easier to do arbitrage for index derivatives. Liquidity of the index The index should be easy to trade on the cash market. This is partly related to the choice of stocks in the index. High liquidity of index components implies that the information in the index is less noisy. Operational issues The index should be professionally maintained, with a steady evolution of securities in the index to keep pace with changes in the economy. The calculations involved in the index should be accurate and reliable. When a stock trades at multiple venues, index computation should be done using prices from the most liquid market. Impact cost Market impact cost is a measure of the liquidity of the market. It reflects the costs faced when actually trading an index. For a stock to qualify for possible inclusion into the Nifty, it has to have market impact cost of below 1.5% when doing Nifty trades of half a crore rupees. The market impact cost on a trade of Rs.3 million of the full Nifty works out to be about 0.2%. This means that Ishan Institute of Management & Technology 82
Current scenario of Capital Market in India. if Nifty is at 1000, a buy order goes through at 1002, i.e.1000+(1000*0.002) and a sell order gets 998, i.e. 1000-(1000*0.002). Hedging effectiveness Hedging effectiveness is a measure of the extent to which an index correlates with a portfolio, whatever the portfolio may be. Nifty correlates better with all kinds of portfolios in India as compared to other indexes. This holds good for all kinds of portfolios, not just those that contain index stocks. Nifty is owned, computed andmaintained by India Index Services &Products Limited (IISL), a company setup by NSE and CRISIL with technical assistance from Standard & Poors.

The term initial public offering (IPO) slipped into everyday speech during the tech bull market of the late 1990s. Back then, it seemed you couldn't go a day without hearing about a dozen new dotcom millionaires in Silicon Valley who were cashing in on their latest IPO. The phenomenon spawned the term siliconaire, which described the dotcom entrepreneurs in their early 20s and 30s who suddenly found themselves living large on the proceeds from their internet companies' IPOs. Selling Stock An initial public offering, or IPO, is the first sale of stock by a company to the public. A company can raise money by issuing either debt or equity. If the company has never issued equity to the public, it's known as an IPO. Companies fall into two broad categories: private and public. A privately held company has fewer shareholders and its owners don't have to disclose much information about the company. Anybody can go out and incorporate a company: just put in some money, file the right legal documents and follow the reporting rules of your jurisdiction. Most small businesses are privately held. But large companies can be private too. Did you know that IKEA, Domino's Pizza and Hallmark Cards are all privately held? It usually isn't possible to buy shares in a private company. You can approach the owners about investing, but they're not obligated to sell you anything. Public companies, on the other hand, have sold at least a portion of themselves to the public and trade on a stock exchange. This is why doing an IPO is also referred to as "going public." Public companies have thousands of shareholders and are subject to strict rules and regulations. They must have a board of directors and they must report financial information every quarter. In the United States, public companies report to the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). In other countries, public companies are overseen by governing bodies similar to the SEC. From an investor's standpoint, the most exciting thing about a public company is that the stock is traded in the open market, like any other commodity. If you have the cash, you can invest. The CEO could hate your guts, but there's nothing he or she could do to stop you from buying stock.
Current scenario of Capital Market in India. Going public raises cash, and usually a lot of it. Being publicly traded also opens many financial doors:
Because of the increased scrutiny, public companies can usually get better rates when they issue debt. As long as there is market demand, a public company can always issue more stock. Thus, mergers and acquisitions are easier to do because stock can be issued as part of the deal.
Trading in the open markets means liquidity. This makes it possible to implement things like employee stock ownership plans, which help to attract top talent.
Being on a major stock exchange carries a considerable amount of prestige. In the past, only private companies with strong fundamentals could qualify for an IPO and it wasn't easy to get listed. The internet boom changed all this. Firms no longer needed strong financials and a solid history to go public. Instead, IPOs were done by smaller startups seeking to expand their businesses. There's nothing wrong with wanting to expand, but most of these firms had never made a profit and didn't plan on being profitable any time soon. Founded on venture capital funding, they spent like Texans trying to generate enough excitement to make it to the market before burning through all their cash. In cases like this, companies might be suspected of doing an IPO just to make the founders rich. This is known as an exit strategy, implying that there's no desire to stick around and create value for shareholders. The IPO then becomes the end of the road rather than the beginning. The Underwriting Process Getting a piece of a hot IPO is very difficult, if not impossible. To understand why, we need to know how an IPO is done, a process known as underwriting. When a company wants to go public, the first thing it does is hire an investment bank. A company could theoretically sell its shares on its own, but realistically, an investment bank is required - it's just the way Wall Street works. Underwriting is the process of raising money by either debt or Ishan Institute of Management & Technology 86
Current scenario of Capital Market in India. equity (in this case we are referring to equity). You can think of underwriters as middlemen between companies and the investing public. The biggest underwriters are Goldman Sachs, Merrill Lynch, Credit Suisse First Boston, Lehman Brothers and Morgan Stanley.
The company and the investment bank will first meet to negotiate the deal. Items usually discussed include the amount of money a company will raise, the type of securities to be issued and all the details in the underwriting agreement. The deal can be structured in a variety of ways. For example, in a firm commitment, the underwriter guarantees that a certain amount will be raised by buying the entire offer and then reselling to the public. In a best efforts agreement, however, the underwriter sells securities for the company but doesn't guarantee the amount raised. Also, investment banks are hesitant to shoulder all the risk of an offering. Instead, they form a syndicate of underwriters. One underwriter leads the syndicate and the others sell a part of the issue. Once all sides agree to a deal, the investment bank puts together a registration statement to be filed with the SEC. This document contains information about the offering as well as company info such as financial statements, management background, any legal problems, where the money is to be used and insider holdings. The SEC then requires a cooling off period, in which they investigate and make sure all material information has been disclosed. Once the SEC approves the offering, a date (the effective date) is set when the stock will be offered to the public. During the cooling off period the underwriter puts together what is known as the red herring. This is an initial prospectus containing all the information about the company except for the offer price and the effective date, which aren't known at that time. With the red herring in hand, the underwriter and company attempt to hype and build up interest for the issue. They go on a road show - also known as the "dog and pony show" - where the big institutional investors are courted. As the effective date approaches, the underwriter and company sit down and decide on the price. This isn't an easy decision: it depends on the company, the success of the road show and, most importantly, current market conditions. Of course, it's in both parties' interest to get as much as possible. Finally, the securities are sold on the stock market and the money is collected from investors.
An initial public offering (IPO) is the first sale of stock by a company to the public. Ishan Institute of Management & Technology 87
Broadly speaking, companies are either private or public. Going public means a company is switching from private ownership to public ownership. Going public raises cash and provides many benefits for a company. The dotcom boom lowered the bar for companies to do an IPO. Many startups went public without any profits and little more than a business plan. Getting in on a hot IPO is very difficult, if not impossible. The process of underwriting involves raising money from investors by issuing new securities. Companies hire investment banks to underwrite an IPO. The road to an IPO consists mainly of putting together the formal documents for the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) and selling the issue to institutional clients.
The only way for you to get shares in an IPO is to have a frequently traded account with one of the investment banks in the underwriting syndicate. An IPO company is difficult to analyze because there isn't a lot of historical info. Lock-up periods prevent insiders from selling their shares for a certain period of time. The end of the lockup period can put strong downward pressure on a stock. Flipping may get you blacklisted from future offerings. Road shows and red herrings are marketing events meant to get as much attention as possible. Don't get sucked in by the hype. A tracking stock is created when a company spins off one of its divisions into a separate entity through an IPO. Don't consider tracking stocks to be the same as a normal IPO, as you are essentially a second-class shareholder.
Following are the main financial products/instruments dealt in the secondary market: Equity: The ownership interest in a company of holders of its common and preferred stock. The various kinds of equity shares are as follows Ishan Institute of Management & Technology 88
Current scenario of Capital Market in India. Equity Shares: An equity share, commonly referred to as ordinary share also represents the form of fractional ownership in which a shareholder, as a fractional owner, undertakes the maximum entrepreneurial risk associated with a business venture. The holders of such shares are members of the company and have voting rights. A company may issue such shares with differential rights as to voting, payment of dividend, etc.
Rights Issue/ Rights Shares: The issue of new securities to existing shareholders at a ratio to those already held.
Bonus Shares: Shares issued by the companies to their shareholders free of cost by capitalization of accumulated reserves from the profits earned in the earlier years.
Preferred Stock/ Preference shares: Owners of these kind of shares are entitled to a fixed dividend or dividend calculated at a fixed rate to be paid regularly before dividend can be paid in respect of equity share. They also enjoy priority over the equity shareholders in payment of surplus. But in the event of liquidation, their claims rank below the claims of the companys creditors, bondholders / debenture holders.
Cumulative Preference Shares. A type of preference shares on which dividend accumulates if remains unpaid. All arrears of preference dividend have to be paid out before paying dividend on equity shares.
Cumulative Convertible Preference Shares: A type of preference shares where the dividend payable on the same accumulates, if not paid. After a specified date, these shares will be converted into equity capital of the company.
Participating Preference Share: The right of certain preference shareholders to participate in profits after a specified fixed dividend contracted for is paid. Participation right is linked with the quantum of dividend paid on the equity shares over and above a particular specified level.
Current scenario of Capital Market in India. Security Receipts: Security receipt means a receipt or other security, issued by a
securitisation company or reconstruction company to any qualified institutional buyer pursuant to a scheme, evidencing the purchase or acquisition by the holder thereof, of an undivided right, title or interest in the financial asset involved in securitisation. Government securities (G-Secs): These are sovereign (credit risk-free) coupon bearing
instruments which are issued by the Reserve Bank of India on behalf of Government of India, in lieu of the Central Government's market borrowing programme. These securities have a fixed coupon that is paid on specific dates on half-yearly basis. These securities are available in wide range of maturity dates, from short dated (less than one year) to long dated (upto twenty years). Debentures: Bonds issued by a company bearing a fixed rate of interest usually payable
half yearly on specific dates and principal amount repayable on particular date on redemption of the debentures. Debentures are normally secured/ charged against the asset of the company in favour of debenture holder. Bond: A negotiable certificate evidencing indebtedness. It is normally unsecured. A debt
security is generally issued by a company, municipality or government agency. A bond investor lends money to the issuer and in exchange, the issuer promises to repay the loan amount on a specified maturity date. The issuer usually pays the bond holder periodic interest payments over the life of the loan. The various types of Bonds are as follows Zero Coupon Bond: Bond issued at a discount and repaid at a face value. No periodic
interest is paid. The difference between the issue price and redemption price represents the return to the holder. The buyer of these bonds receives only one payment, at the maturity of the bond. Convertible Bond: A bond giving the investor the option to convert the bond into equity at a
fixed conversion price. Commercial Paper: A short term promise to repay a fixed amount that is placed on the
market either directly or through a specialized intermediary. It is usually issued by companies with a high credit standing in the form of a promissory note redeemable at par to the holder on maturity Ishan Institute of Management & Technology 90
Current scenario of Capital Market in India. and therefore, doesnt require any guarantee. Commercial paper is a money market instrument issued normally for a tenure of 90 days. Treasury Bills: Short-term (up to 91 days) bearer discount security issued by the
Government as a means of financing its cash requirements. DEBT INSTRUMENTS
To meet the long term and short term needs of finance, firms issue various kinds of Securities to the public. Securities represent claims on a stream of income and /or particular assets.Debentures are debt securities, and there is a wide range of them. Market loans are raised by the government and public sector institutions through debt securities. Equity shares issued by cooperates are ownership securities. Preference shares are a hybrid security. It is a mixture of an ownership security and debt security. DEBENTURES A debenture is a document which either creates a debt or acknowledges it. Debenture issued by a company is in the form of a certificate acknowledging indebtedness. The debentures are issued under the Company's Common Seal. Debentures are one of a series issued to a number of lenders. The date of repayment is specified in the debentures. Debentures are issued against a charge on the assets of the Company. Debentures holders have no right to vote at the meetings of the companies. KINDS OF DEBENTURES (a)Bearer Debentures: They are registered and are payable to the bearer. They are negotiable instruments and are transferable by delivery. (b) Registered Debentures: They are payable to the registered holder whose name appears both on the debentures and in the Register of Debenture Holders maintained by the company. Registered Debentures can be Ishan Institute of Management & Technology 91
Current scenario of Capital Market in India. transferred but have to be registered again. Registered Debentures are not negotiable instruments. A registered debenture contains a commitment to pay the principal sum and interest. It also has a description of the charge and a statement that it is Issued subject to the conditions endorsed therein. (c) Secured Debentures: Debentures which create a change on the assets of the company which may be fixed or floating are known as secured Debentures. The term "bonds" and "debentures"(secured) are used interchangeably in common parlance. In USA, BOND is a long term contract which is secured, whereas a debentures is an unsecured one. (d) Unsecured or Naked Debentures: Debentures which are issued without any charge on assets are insecured or naked debentures. The holders are like unsecured creditors and may see the company for the recovery of debt. (e) Redeemable Debentures: Normally debentures are issued on the condition that they shall be redeemed after a certain period. They can however, be reissued after redemption. (f) Perpetual Debentures: When debentures are irredeemable they are called perpetual. Perpetual Debentures cannot be issued in India at present. (g) Convertible Debentures: If an option is given to convert debentures into equity shares at the stated rate of exchange after a specified period, they are called convertible debentures. Convertible Debentures have become very popular in India. On conversion the holders cease to be lenders and become owners.
Current scenario of Capital Market in India. Debentures are usually issued in a series with a pari passu (at the same rate) clause which entitles them to be discharged rateably though issued at different times. New series of debentures cannot rank pari passu with the old series unless the old series provides so. New debt instruments issued by public limited companies are participating debentures, convertible debentures with options, third party convertible debentures convertible debentures redeemable at premiums, debt equity swaps and zero coupon convertible notes. These are discussed below: (h) Participating Debentures: They are unsecured corporate debt securities which participate in the profits of the company. They might find investors if issued by existing dividend paying companies. (i) Convertible Debentures with options: They are a derivative of convertible debentures with an embedded option, providing flexibility to the issuer as well as the investor to exit from the terms of the issue. The coupon rate is specified at the time of issue. (j) Third Party Convertible Debentures: They are debt with a warrant allowing the investor to subscribe to the equity of third firm at a preferential price visa vis the market price. Interest rate on third party convertible debentures is lower than pure debt on account of the conversion option. (k) Convertible-Debentures Redeemable at a Premium: Convertible Debentures are issued at face value with 'a put option entitling investors to sell the bond to the issuer at a premium. They are basically similar to convertible debentures but embody less risk. (I) Debt-Equity Swaps:
Current scenario of Capital Market in India. Debt-Equity Swaps are an offer from an issuer of debt to swap it for equity. The instrument is quite risky for the investor because the anticipated capital appreciation may not materialise. (m) Deep discount Bonds: They are designed to meet the long term funds requirements of the issuer and investors who are not looking for immediate return and can be sold with a long maturity of 25-30 years at a deep discount on the face value of debentures. IDBI deep discount bonds for Rs 1 lakh repayable after 25 years were sold at a discount price of Rs. 2,700. (n) Zero-Coupon Convertible Note: A zero-coupon convertible note can be converted into shares. If choice is exercised investors forego all accured and unpaid interest. The zero-coupon convertible notes are quite sensitive to changes in interest rates. (o) Secured Premium Notes (SPN) with Detachable Warrants: SPN which is issued along with a detachable warrant, is redeemable after a notice period, say four to seven years. The warrants attached to it ensures the holder the right to apply and get allotted equity shares; provided the SPN is fully paid. There is a lock-in period for SPN during which no interest will be paid for an invested amount. The SPN holder has an option to sell back the SPN to the company at par value after the lock in period. If the holder exercises this option, no interest/ premium will be paid on redemption. In case the SPN holder holds its further, the holder wili be repaid the principal amount along with the additional amount of interest/ premium on redemption in instalments as decided by the company. The conversion of detachable warrants into equity shares will have to be done within the time limit notified by the company. (p) Floating Rate Bonds: The rate on the floating Rate Bond is linked to a benchmark interest rate like the prime rate in USA or LIBOR in eurocurrency market. The State Bank of India's floating rate bond was linked to Ishan Institute of Management & Technology 94
Current scenario of Capital Market in India. maximum interest on term deposits which was 10 percent. Floating rate is quoted in terms of a margin above or below the bench mark rate. The-floor rate in the State Bank of India case was 12 per cent. Interest rates linked to the bench mark ensure that neither the borrower nor the lender suffer from the changes in interest rates. When rates are fixed, they are likely to be inequitable to the borrower when interest rates fall subsequently, and the same bonds are likely to be inequitable to the lender when interest rates rise subsequently. WARRANTS A warrant is a security issued by a company granting the holder of the warrant the right to purchase a specified number of, shares at a specified price any time prior to an expirable date. Warrants may be issued with debentures or equity shares. The specific rights are set out in the warrant. The main features-of a warrant are number of shares entitled, expiry date and state price exercise price. Expiry date of warrants, generally in USA, is 5 to 10 years from the original issue date. The exercise price is 10 to 30 percent above the prevailing market price. The Warrants have a secondary market. The minimum value of a warrant represents the exchange value between the current price of the share and the shares purchased at the exercise price. Warrants have no flotation costs and when they are exercised the firm receives additional funds at a price lower than the current market, yet about those prevailing at issue time. New or growing firms and venture capitalists issue warrants. They are also issued in mergers and acquisitions. Warrants are called sweeteners and have been issued in the recent past by several companies in India. Debentures issued with warrants, like convertible debentures, carry lower coupon rates.
Non-Convertible

The holder of NCDs with detachable equity warrants is given an option to buy a specific number of shares from the company at a predetermined price within a definite time-frame. The warrants attached to NCDs will be issued subject to full payment of NCD is a value. There is a specific lock-in period after which there detachable option to apply for equities. If the option to Ishan Institute of Management & Technology 95
Current scenario of Capital Market in India. apply for equities is not exercised, the unapplied portion of shares would be disposed off by the company at its liberty. Zero-Interest Fully Convertible Debentures (FCDS) The investors in zero-interest fully convertible debentures will not be paid any interest. However, there is a notified period after which fully paid FCDs will be automatically and compulsorily converted into shares. There is a lock-in period upto which no interest will be paid. Conversion is allowed only for fully paid FCDs. In the event of the company going for rights issue prior to the allotment of equity resulting from the conversion of equity shares into FCDs, FCD holders shall be offered securities as may be determined by the company. Secured Zero-Interest Partly Convertible Debentures (PCDS) With Detachable And Separately Tradable Warrants: This instrument has two parts; A and B. Part A is convertible into equity shares at a fixed amount on the date of allotment. Part B is non-convertible, to be redeemed at par at the end of a specific period from the date of allotment. Part B will carry a detachable and separately tradable warrant which will provide an option to the warrant holder to receive equity shares for every warrant held at a price as worked out by the company. Fully Convertible Debentures (FCDS) With Interest (Optional) This instrurnent does not yield interest in the initial period of say, 6 months. After this period option is given to the holder of FCDs to apply for equity at a "premium" for which no additional amourit needs to be paid. The option has to be indicated in the application form itself. However, interest on FCDs is payable at a determined rate from the date of first conversion to the second / final conversion and in lieu of it, equity shares are issued. OTHER DEBT SECURITIES IN VOGUE ABROAD Income Bonds: Ishan Institute of Management & Technology 96
Current scenario of Capital Market in India. Here interest is paid only when cash flows are adequate. Income Bonds are like cumulative preference shares on which the fixed dividend is not paid if there is no profit in a year, but is carried forward and paid in the following year. On Income Bonds, there is no default if interest is not paid. Unlike dividend on cumulative preference shares, interest on income bond is tax deductible. Income Bonds are issued abroad by companies in reorganisation or by firms whose financial situation does not make it feasible to issue bonds with a fixed interest payment Asset-Backed Securities: Assets-backed securities are a category of marketable securities that are collateralised by financial assets such as instalment loan contracts. Asset-backed financing involves a process called securitisation. Securitisation is a disintermediation process in which credit from financial intermediaries is replaced by marketable debentures that can be issued at lower cost. Financial assets are pooled so that debentures can be sold to third parties to finance the pool. Repos are the oldest asset-backed security in our country. In USA, securitisation has been undertaken for insured mortgages (Ginnie Mae, 1970), mortgage backed loans, student loans (Sallie Mae 1973), trade credit receivable backed bonds (1982), equipment leasing backed bonds (1984), certificates of automobile receivable securities (1985) and small business administration loans. More recently, credit card receivables have been securitized. The decade of the eighties witnessed large expansion of asset backed security financing. Junk Bonds: Junk Bond is a high risk, high yield bond to finance either a leveraged buyout (LBO), a merger of a company in financial distress. Coupon rates range from 16 to 25 per cent. Old line established companies which were inefficient and. financed conservatively were objects of take over and restructuring. To finance such take-over, high yield bonds were sold.

Dematerialization and Electronic Transfer of Securities

Traditionally, settlement system on Indian stock exchanges gave rise to settlement risk due to the time that elapsed before trades were settled by physical movement of certificates. There were two Ishan Institute of Management & Technology 99
Current scenario of Capital Market in India. aspects: First relating to settlement of trade in stock exchanges by delivery of shares by the seller and payment by the buyer. The stock exchange aggregated trades over a period of time and carried out net settlement through the physical delivery of securities. The process of physically moving the securities from the seller to his broker to Clearing Corporation to the buyers broker and finally to the buyer took time with the risk of delay somewhere along the chain. The second aspect related to transfer of shares in favour of the purchaser by the issuer. This system of transfer of ownership was grossly inefficient as every transfer involved the physical movement of paper securities to the issuer for registration, with the change of ownership being evidenced by an endorsement on the security certificate. In many cases the process of transfer took much longer than the two months as stipulated in the Companies Act, and a significant proportion of transactions wound up as bad delivery due to faulty compliance of paper work. Theft, mutilation of certificates and other irregularities were rampant, and in addition the issuer had the right to refuse the transfer of a security. Thus the buyer did not get good title of the securities after parting with good money. All this added to the costs and delays in settlement, restricted liquidity and made investor grievance redressal time-consuming and at times intractable. To obviate these problems, the Depositories Act, 1996 was passed to provide for the establishment of depositories in securities with the objective of ensuring free transferability of securities with speed, accuracy and security by (a) making securities of public limited companies freely transferable subject to certain exceptions; (b) dematerializing the securities in the depository mode; and (c) providing for maintenance of ownership records in a book entry form. In order to streamline both the stages of settlement process, the Depositories Act envisages transfer of ownership of securities electronically by book entry without making the securities move from person to person. The Act has made the securities of all public limited companies freely transferable by restricting the companys right of use discretion in effecting the transfer of securities, and dispensing with the transfer deed and other procedural requirements under the Companies Act. A depository holds securities in dematerialized form. It maintains ownership records of securities and effects transfer of ownership through book entry. By fiction of law, it is the registered owner of the securities held with it with the limited purpose of effecting transfer of ownership at the behest of the owner. The name of the depository appears in the records of the issuer as registered Ishan Institute of Management & Technology 100
Current scenario of Capital Market in India. owner of securities. The name of actual owner appears in the records of the depository as beneficial owner. The beneficial owner has all the rights and liabilities associated with the securities. The owner of securities intending to avail of depository services opens an account with a depository through a depository participant (DP). The Securities are transferred from one account to another through book entry only on the instructions of the beneficial owner. In order to promote dematerialization of securities, NSE joined hands with leading financial institutions to establish the National Securities Depository Ltd. (NSDL), the first depository in the country, with the objective of enhancing the efficiency in settlement systems as also to reduce the menace of fake/forged and stolen securities. This has ushered in an era of dematerialized trading and settlement. SEBI has made dematerialized settlement mandatory in an ever-increasing number of securities in a phased manner, thus bringing about an increase in the proportion of shares delivered in dematerialized form. There is an increasing preference to settle trades, particularly in high value securities, in demat form. Such high level of demat settlement reassures success of rolling settlement. CDSL was set up in February, 1999 to provide depository services. All leading stock exchanges like the National Stock Exchange, Calcutta Stock Exchange, Delhi Stock Exchange, The Stock Exchange, Ahmedabad, etc have established Connectivity with CDSL.
TRADING PROCEDURE
Neat System
The NEAT system supports an order driven market, wherein orders match on the basis of time and price priority. All quantity fields are in units and prices are quoted in Indian Rupees. The regular lot size and tick size for various securities traded is notified by the Exchange from time to time.
Market Types
The Capital Market system has four types of market. Normal Market Normal market consists of various book types wherein orders are segregated as Regular Lot Orders, Special Term Orders, Negotiated Trade Orders and Stop Loss Orders depending on their order attributes. Odd Lot Market Ishan Institute of Management & Technology 101
Current scenario of Capital Market in India. The odd lot market facility is used for the Limited Physical Market. The main features of the Limited Physical Market are detailed in a separate section (1.14). RETDEBT Market The RETDEBT market facility on the NEAT system of capital market segment is used or transactions in Retail Debt Market session. Trading in Retail Detail Market takes place in the same manner as in equities (capital market) segment. The main features of this market are detailed in a separate section (1.15) on RETDEBT market. Auction Market In the Auction market, auctions are initiated by the Exchange on behalf of trading members for settlement related reasons. The main features of this market are detailed in a separate section (1.13) on auction.
Order Management
Order Management consists of entering orders, order modification, order cancellation and order matching. Entering Orders The trading member can enter orders in the normal market, odd lot, RETDEBT and auction market. A user can place orders in any of the above mentioned markets by invoking the respective order entry screens. After doing so, the system automatically picks up information from the last invoked screen (e.g. Market Watch/MBP/OO/SQ and Security List). When the user invokes the order entry screen, the fields that are taken as default are Symbol, Series and Book Type. In case of other fields, the system takes the following defaults: Qty : Regular lot quantity available at best price on counter side Price : Price of best counter order Pro : Trading member ID of the user Order Duration : Day Disclosed quantity : Fully Disclosed Participant ID : Trading member ID of the user Active & Passive Order When any order enters the trading system, it is an active order. It tries to find a match on the other side of the books. If it finds a match, a trade is generated. If it does not find a match, the order becomes a passive order and goes and sits in the order book. Ishan Institute of Management & Technology 102
Current scenario of Capital Market in India. Order Books As and when valid orders are entered or received by the trading system, they are first numbered, time stamped and then scanned for a potential match. This means that each order has a distinctive order number and a unique time stamp on it. If a match is not found, then the orders are stored in the books as per the price/time priority. Price priority means that if two orders are entered into the system, the order having the best price gets the higher priority. Time priority means if two orders having the same price is entered, the order that is entered first gets the higher priority. Best price for a sell order is the lowest price and for a buy order, it is the highest price. The different order books in the NEAT system are as detailed below: (a) Regular Lot Book: An order that has no special condition associated with it is a Regular Lot order. When a dealer places this order, the system looks for a corresponding Regular Lot order existing in that market (Passive orders). If it does not find a match at the time it enters the system, the order is stacked in the Regular Lot book as a passive order. By default, the Regular Lot book appears in the order entry screen in the normal market. Buyback orders can be placed through the Regular Lot (RL) book in the Normal Market. The member can place a buyback order by specifying BUYBACKORD in the Client Account field in the order entry screen. Such company buyback orders will be identified in MBP screen by an * (asterisk) indicator against such orders. (b) Special Terms Book: Orders which have a special term attribute attached to it are known as special terms orders. When a special term order enters the system, it scans the orders existing in the Regular Lot book as well as Special Terms Book. Currently this facility is not available in the trading system. (c) Stop Loss Book: Stop Loss orders are released into the market when the last traded price for that security in the normal market reaches or surpasses the trigger price. Before triggering, the order does not participate in matching and the order cannot get traded. Untriggered stop loss orders are stacked in the stop loss book. The stop loss orders can be either a market order or a limit price order. For buy SL orders, the trigger price has to be less than or equal to the limit price. Similarly, for sell SL orders, the trigger price has to be greater than or equal to the limit price. (d) Negotiated Trade Book: Two trading members can negotiate a trade outside the Exchange. To regularise the trade each trading member has to enter the respective order in the system. To enter Negotiated Trade order details, select book type as NT. It is mandatory for the trading member to enter the counterparty trading member id. When both parties to a trade enter orders, then the Ishan Institute of Management & Technology 103
Current scenario of Capital Market in India. request goes to the Exchange for approval. The Exchange can either approve the request or reject it. Further, the Exchange has the discretion to send either of the two orders or both the orders to the Regular Lot book so that the orders are available to the entire market. Currently this facility is not available in the trading system. (e) Odd Lot Book: The Odd Lot book can be selected in the order entry screen in order to trade in the Odd Lot market. Order matching in this market takes place between two orders on the basis of quantity and price. To enter orders in the odd lot market, select the book type as OL. (f) RETDEBT Order Book: RETDEBT market orders can be entered into the system by selecting the RETDEBT Order book. These orders scan only the RETDEBT Order book for potential matches. If no suitable match can be found, the order is stored in the book as a passive order. To enter orders in the RETDEBT market, select the book type as 'D'. (g) Auction Order Book: Auction order book stores orders entered by the trading members to participate in the Exchange initiated auctions. Auction orders can be initiator orders, competitor orders and solicitor orders. For further details kindly refer to section on 'Auction'. Symbol & Series Securities can be taken as default values from the order entry screen from any of the inquiry screens such as MBP, OO, PT, AL, MI and SQ. In case the security isnot set up in the Market Watch screen, the Security List can also be used to take the codes as default values. Order entry in a security is not possible if that security is suspended from trading. E.g. If a security is suspended in the normal market a message Security is suspended in the normal market is displayed on the order entry screen. The label Suspended is also displayed in the market watch screen for the setup security. Order entry is also not possible in case the security is not eligible to trade in a particular market. E.g. If a security is not eligible to trade in the normal market a message Security is not allowed to trade in normal market is displayed on the order entry screen. In case the user types the symbol series incorrectly a message Invalid symbol series is displayed on the screen. Quantity When the buy/sell order entry screen is invoked, the regular lot size available at the best price on the counter side gets defaulted in the order entry screen. In case of negotiated trade or auction book is selected for display, the quantity has to be specifically mentioned by the user. Quantity mentioned should be in multiples of regular lot size for that security. Ishan Institute of Management & Technology 104
Current scenario of Capital Market in India. Quantity Freeze All orders with very large quantities are sent for Exchange approval. If the quantity for the order is greater than x% of the issue size of the security or is greater than Rs. x value of the order (x is as specified by the Exchange) whichever is less, then the order is sent as a quantity freeze to the Exchange for approval. The Exchange may either approve or reject the quantity freeze request. Price Along with the regular lot quantity, the best price on the counterside is also taken as default value in the order entry screen. A user has the option to either enter the order at the default price or overwrite it with any other desired price. If a user mentions a price, it should be in multiples of the tick size for that particular security and within the days minimum/maximum price range, otherwise the order is not accepted by the system and an order rejection message/confirmation slip is generated. If a price outside the Operational Range is entered, the order results in a price freeze and is not accepted as a valid order till the time the Exchange approves it. All auction orders require the user to mention a price. In case the user enters an order with a Market price the order takes the last traded price in the respective market as the market price, provided no passive order exists on the same side or the counter side in that security and in that market. However, if suitable orders exist on the counter side, then the order takes the price of the counter order and a trade is generated. If an order exists on the same side but no orders exists on the counter side, then the order takes the price of the best order on that side and is stacked immediately below it. If the security has never been traded, then the market order takes the value of the base price and sits in the books as a passive order. In case of stop loss orders, a user has the flexibility of specifying a limit price along with the trigger price. This limit price can be selected as equal to the trigger price in the price field so as to leave it with the word Price. Alternatively, a user can specify a limit price as Market price.
Circuit Breakers
The Exchange has implemented index-based market-wide circuit breakers in compulsory rolling settlement with effect from July 02, 2001. In addition to the circuit breakers, price bands are also applicable on individual securities. Index-based Market-wide Circuit Breakers The index-based market-wide circuit breaker system applies at 3 stages of the index movement, either way viz. at 10%, 15% and 20%. These circuit breakers when triggered bring about a Ishan Institute of Management & Technology 105
Current scenario of Capital Market in India. coordinated trading halt in all equity and equity derivative markets nationwide. The market-wide circuit breakers are triggered by movement of either the BSE Sensex or the NSE S&P CNX Nifty, whichever is breached earlier. In case of a 10% movement of either of these indices, there would be a one-hour market halt if the movement takes place before 1:00 p.m. In case the movement takes place at or after 1:00 p.m. but before 2:30 p.m. there would be trading halt for hour. In case movement takes place at or after 2:30 p.m. there will be no trading halt at the 10% level and market shall continue trading. In case of a 15% movement of either index, there shall be a two-hour halt if the movement takes place before 1 p.m. If the 15% trigger is reached on or after 1:00 p.m., but before 2:00 p.m., there shall be a one-hour halt. If the 15% trigger is reached on or after 2:00 p.m. the trading shall halt for remainder of the day. In case of a 20% movement of the index, trading shall be halted for the remainder of the day. These percentages are translated into absolute points of index variations on a quarterly basis. At the end of each quarter, these absolute points of index variations are revised for the applicability for the next quarter. The absolute points are calculated based on closing level of index on the last day of the trading in a quarter and rounded off to the nearest 10 points in case of S&P CNX Nifty.
Price Bands
Daily price bands are applicable on securities as below: Daily price bands of 2% (either way) on securities as specified by the Exchange. Daily price bands of 5% (either way) on securities as specified by the Exchange. Daily price bands of 10% (either way) on securities as specified by the Exchange. No price bands are applicable on: scrips on which derivative products are available or scrips included in indices on which derivative products are available. In order to prevent members from entering orders at non-genuine prices in such securities, the Exchange has fixed operating range of 20% for such securities. Price bands of 20% (either way) on all remaining scrips (including debentures, warrants, preference shares etc). The price bands for the securities in the Limited Physical Market are the same as those applicable for the securities in the Normal Market. For auction market the price bands of 20% are applicable. Ishan Institute of Management & Technology 106
Current scenario of Capital Market in India. Order Types and Conditions The system allows the trading members to enter orders with various conditions attached to them as per their requirements. These conditions are broadly divided into Time Conditions, Quantity Conditions, Price Conditions and Other Conditions. Several combinations of the above are allowed thereby providing enormous flexibility to the users. The order types and conditions are summarized below: a) Time Conditions. DAY: A DAY order, as the name suggests is an order that is valid for the day on which it is entered. If the order is not executed during the day, the system cancels the order automatically at the end of the day. By default, the system assumes that all orders entered are Day orders. IOC: An Immediate or Cancel (IOC) order allows the user to buy or sell a security as soon as the order is released into the system, failing which the order is cancelled from the system. Partial match is possible for the order, and the unmatched portion of the order is cancelled immediately. b) Quantity Conditions DQ: An order with a Disclosed Quantity (DQ) allows the user to disclose only a portion of the order quantity to the market. For e.g. if the order quantity is 10,000 and the disclosed quantity is 2,000, then only 2,000 is released to the market. After this quantity is fully matched, a subsequent quantity of 2,000 is disclosed. Thus, totally five disclosures with the same order number are shown one after the other in the market. c) Price Conditions Market: Market orders are orders for which price is specified as 'MKT' at the time the order is entered. For such orders, the system determines the price. Stop-Loss: This facility allows the user to release an order into the system, after the market price of the security reaches or crosses a threshold price called trigger price. Example: If for stop loss buy order, the trigger is Rs.93.00, the limit price is Rs.95.00 and the market (last traded) price is Rs.90.00, then this order is released into the system once the market price reaches or exceeds Rs.93.00. This order is added to the regular lot book with time of triggering as the time stamp, as a limit order of Rs.95.00. All stop loss orders are kept in a separate book (stop loss book) in the system until they are triggered. Trigger Price: Price at which an order gets triggered from the stop loss book. Limit Price: Price of the orders after triggering from stop loss book. Ishan Institute of Management & Technology 107
Current scenario of Capital Market in India. d) Other Conditions PRO/CLI/WHS: A user can enter orders on his own account or on behalf of clients or warehouse order on behalf of institutional clients. By default, the system assumes that the user is entering orders on the trading members own account. The client account field is an alphanumeric field. It is mandatory to enter the client account number in the field provided in case the user enters orders on behalf of clients or warehouse order on behalf of institutional clients. The system will assign a code Cli to such an order. The user cannot specify the trading member code in the client account field. Warehouse orders may be entered only in NM for book type RL. In case a member tries to enter a warehouse order in other segments, an error message Invalid series for warehouse order is displayed. To enter a warehouse order with client account, select WHS and enter the client account in the client account field. The client account field is an alphanumeric field and does not accept client code same as trading member code. In such a case an error message Broker code not allowed as A/C Number for WHS orders is displayed. Counterparty ID: In case a negotiated trade order is entered, the system requests the user to enter the counterparty trading member id which is to be obtained by the user from the counter party itself. Currently this facility is not available in the trading system. Participant Code: By default, the system displays the trading member id of the user in the participant field. Thus, all trades resulting from an order are to be settled by that trading member. NCIT orders can be marked by the user at the order entry level itself. Only a valid participant code can be entered. In case the participant is suspended a message to this effect is displayed to the user on the order entry screen. The user can also mark his orders at the order entry screen to disclose his open or close orders. In the participant field, O has to be typed, for Open orders and C has to be typed for Close orders. Warehousing is permitted where registered custodian is involved for delivery/receipt of securities. The user has to therefore enter a valid participant code other than O, C, NCIT and broker code in the participant code field. In case of incorrect participant code a message This participant code is not valid for warehouse orders is displayed. All pending warehousing orders get purged at the end of the day processing. The participant field will contain INST code as part of the drop down list to mark the Institutional orders. Remarks: The remarks field is a description field within the order entry screen provided to incorporate any remarks to be specified by the user at the time of order entry. Order Modification Ishan Institute of Management & Technology 108
Current scenario of Capital Market in India. All orders can be modified in the system till the time they do not get fully traded and only during market hours. Once an order is modified, the branch order value limit for the branch gets adjusted automatically. Following is the corporate hierarchy for performing order modification functionality: A dealer can modify only the orders entered by him. A branch manager can modify his own orders or orders of any dealer under his branch. A corporate manager can modify his own orders or orders of all dealers and branch managers of the trading member firm. However, the corporate manager/branch manager cannot modify order details such that it exceeds the branch order value limit set for the day. Order modification cannot be performed by/for a trading member who is suspended or de-activated by the Exchange for any reason. A buyback having BUYBACKORD in the client account field cannot be modified to any other client account. Any order modifications resulting in price or quantity freeze shall not be allowed. The user will receive a message "CFO Request Rejected' for such modification requests. Order Cancellation Order cancellation functionality can be performed only for orders which have not been fully or partially traded (for the untraded part of partially traded orders only) and only during market hours. Single Order Cancellation Single order cancellation can be done during trading hours either by selecting the order from the outstanding order screen or from the function key provided. Order cancellation functionality is available for all book types. But the user is not allowed to cancel auction initiation and competitor orders in auction market. Order cancellation is also not allowed for those negotiated trade orders that have not resulted as an alert. Quick Order Cancellation Quick Order Cancellation (Cancel All) is an extension of Single Order Cancellation enabling a user to cancel multiple outstanding orders in various trading books subject to the corporate hierarchy. The different filters available for canceling orders by using quick order cancellation facility are symbol, series, book type, branch, user, PRO/CLI/WHS, client account number and buy/sell. Quick order cancellation can be performed by invoking the function key provided and cannot be done from the outstanding orders screen. If the criteria are not found to be correct by a Ishan Institute of Management & Technology 109
Current scenario of Capital Market in India. trading member then an error message is displayed and the focus is set on the incorrect field to enable the user to correct it. If the selection criteria are correct then a message appears on the quick order cancellation screen stating the number of buy and sell orders to be cancelled. Quick order cancellation can be done only during market hours. Order Cancellation for Disabled Member The Exchange disables a member from trading due to various reasons. In case a member is disabled from trading by the Exchange, all pending orders in all books except for Negotiated Trade orders of the member are immediately cancelled by the system. A message: Order Number .......... cancelled due to suspension is displayed at the message window screen at the trader workstation. Inquiry screens such as MBP, Market Watch and trader specific screens such as Outstanding Orders, Activity Log etc. get updated accordingly. Order Matching The buy and sell orders are matched on Book Type, Symbol, Series, Quantity and Price. Matching Priority The best sell order is the order with the lowest price and a best buy order is the order with the highest price. The unmatched orders are queued in the system by the following priority: (a) By Price: A buy order with a higher price gets a higher priority and similarly, a sell order with a lower price gets a higher priority. E.g. Consider the following buy orders: 1) 100 shares @ Rs. 35 at time 9:30 a.m. 2) 500 shares @ Rs. 35.05 at time 9:43 a.m. The second order price is greater than the first order price and therefore is the best buy order. (b) By Time: If there is more than one order at the same price, the order entered earlier gets a higher priority. E.g. consider the following sell orders: 1) 200 shares @ Rs. 72.75 at time 9:30 a.m. 2) 300 shares @ Rs. 72.75 at time 9:35 a.m. Both orders have the same price but they were entered in the system at different time. The first order was entered before the second order and therefore is the best sell order. As and when valid orders are entered or received by the system, they are first numbered, time stamped and then scanned for a potential match. This means that each order has a distinctive order number and a unique time stamp on it. If a match is not found, then the orders are stored in the books as per the price/time priority. An active buy order matches with the best passive sell order if Ishan Institute of Management & Technology 110
Current scenario of Capital Market in India. the price of the passive sell order is less than or equal to the price of the active buy order. Similarly, an active sell order matches with the best passive buy order if the price of the passive buy order is greater than or equal to the price of the active sell order. Regular Lot Matching If the combined quantity of one or more matching orders on the opposite side of the regular lot book is equal to or more than the quantity of active order, the active order is completely traded. If the combined quantity of one or more matching orders on the opposite side of the regular lot book is equal to or less than the quantity of active order, the active order is partially traded. If after trading any quantity is left untraded, the order is added to the regular lot book in the price/time priority. The orders with the IOC attribute try to match maximum possible quantity after they are entered. Any remaining quantity is cancelled. The orders with DQ attribute disclose only a part of the total order quantity to the market. An active order with disclosed condition tries to maximize the quantity as possible regardless of the disclosed quantity i.e. a single trade takes place for a quantity more than the disclosed quantity. If an active order with the disclosed quantity cannot trade its total quantity, it is added to the regular lot book in the price/time priority. The disclosed order quantity is determined as follows: a) If the remaining order quantity is less than or equal to the original disclosed quantity, the disclosed order quantity is set as equal to remaining order quantity. b) If the remaining order quantity is more than the original disclosed quantity, the disclosed order quantity is set to the original disclosed quantity. Once an order with the disclosed quantity has become a passive order, it trades only in units of disclosed quantity or less. However, if there is no other competing order with the same price, a single trade of as much quantity as possible takes place between the two orders. When the entire disclosed order quantity is fully traded the disclosed quantity gets replenished and this continues till the entire order quantity is fully traded. Each time the disclosed quantity is replenished, the order is stamped with the current trading time and added to the regular order book as fresh order. Stop Loss Matching All stop loss orders entered into the system are stored in the stop loss book. These orders can contain two prices. Ishan Institute of Management & Technology 111
Current scenario of Capital Market in India. Trigger Price. It is the price at which the order gets triggered from the stop loss book. Limit Price. It is the price for orders after the orders get triggered from the stop loss book. If the limit price is not specified, the trigger price is taken as the limit price for the order. The stop loss orders are prioritised in the stop loss book with the most likely order to trigger first and the least likely to trigger last. The priority is same as that of the regular lot book. The stop loss condition is met under the following circumstances: Sell Order - A sell order in the stop loss book gets triggered when the last traded price in the normal market reaches or falls below the trigger price of the order. Buy Order - A buy order in the stop loss book gets triggered when the last traded price in the normal market reaches or exceeds the trigger price of the order. When a stop loss order with IOC condition enters the system, the order is released in the market after it is triggered. Once triggered, the order scans the counter order book for a suitable match to result in a trade or else is cancelled by the system. RETDEBT Order Matching The rules for matching the RETDEBT orders are similar to the Regular Lot book except that RETDEBT order matching takes place only for orders in the RETDEBT order book. Odd Lot Order Matching Odd Lot matching takes place only for orders in Odd Lot book. There are no partial trades for an Odd Lot order i.e. each match is an exact match where the quantity of the passive order is equal to that of the active order. Auction Matching All auction orders are entered into the auction order book. The rules for matching of auctions are similar to that of the regular lot book except for the following points:a) Auction order matching takes place at the end of the solicitor period for the auction. b) Auction matching takes place only across orders belonging to the same auction. c) All auction trades take place at the auction price. Validation Checks While matching orders, the system performs following validation checks: a) If the turnover limit of any trading member has already exceeded, a trade does not take place. b) If the participant of any of the orders is 'Suspended', the trade does not go through.
Trade Management
Current scenario of Capital Market in India. A trade is an activity in which a buy and a sell order match with each other. Matching of two orders is done automatically by the system. Whenever a trade takes place, the system sends a trade confirmation message to each of the users involved in the trade. The trade confirmation slip gets printed at the trader workstation of the user with a unique trade number. The system also broadcasts a message to the entire market through the ticker window displaying the details of the trade. This section describes trade-related activities like viewing the trades, trade modification/cancellation, etc. Before the trade is effected, the system performs checks with respect to the following parameters: a) The security in which the trade is to be effected is not suspended from operations. b) Trading members involved in the potential trade are not suspended from operations. c) Turnover limits for the trading members involved are not exceeded. Once the trade for an order entered is confirmed by the system, a message is sent to the trader workstation. The system generates a Trade Confirmation Slip that is printed on the printer of the trader workstation. Trade Modification The user can use trade modification facility to request for modifying trades done during the day. The user can request the Exchange to modify only the trade quantity field. Moreover, the new quantity requested must be lower than the original trade quantity. If the user is a Corporate Manager of a trading member firm, he can request for trade modification for the trades of any dealer of the trading members firm and if he is a Branch Manager of a branch, then he can request for trade modification for any dealer of the branch of the trading member firm. The user can request for trade modification either from the previous trades screen or by using the function key provided in the workstation. Trade Modification Request is sent to the Exchange for approval and message to that effect is displayed in the message window. The counterparty to the trade also receives this message. The counterparty then has to make a similar request for the same modified quantity on the same trading day. Once both the parties to trade send their respective trade modification requests, the Exchange either approves or rejects it. The message to that effect is displayed in the message window. In case a request for trade modification is approved by the Exchange, the parties to trade receive a system message confirming the trade modification and the trade modification slip is printed at their Ishan Institute of Management & Technology 113
Current scenario of Capital Market in India. respective trader workstations. If the Exchange rejects the trade modification request, the trade modification rejection slip will be printed at their respective trader workstations. Trade Cancellation The user can use trade cancellation screen for cancelling trades done during the day. If the user is a corporate manager of a trading member firm, he can request for trade cancellation for the trades of any dealer of the trading members firm and if he is a branch manager of a branch, then he can request for trade cancellation for the trades for any dealer of the branch of the trading member firm. The user can request for trade cancellation either from the previous trades screen or by using the function key provided in the workstation. The trade cancellation request is sent to the Exchange for approval and message to that effect is displayed in the message window. The counterparty to the trade also receives the message. The counterparty then has to make similar request on the same trading day. Once both the parties to trade send the trade cancellation request, the Exchange either approves or rejects it. The message to that effect is displayed in the message window. When a request for the trade cancellation is approved by the Exchange, the parties to trade receive a system message confirming the trade cancellation and the trade cancellation slip is printed at their respective trader workstations. If the Exchange rejects the trade cancellation request, the trade cancellation rejection slip is printed at their respective trader workstations.
Internet Broking
SEBI Committee has approved the use of Internet as an Order Routing System (ORS) for communicating clients' orders to the exchanges through brokers. ORS enables investors to place orders with his broker and have control over the information and quotes and to hit the quote on an on-line basis. Once the brokers system receives the order, it checks the authenticity of the client electronically and then routes the order to the appropriate exchange for execution. On execution of the order, it is confirmed on real time basis. Investor receives reports on margin requirement, payments and delivery obligations through the system. His ledger and portfolio account get updated online. NSE launched internet trading in early February 2000. It is the first stock exchange in the country to provide web-based access to investors to trade directly on the exchange. The orders originating from the PCs of the investors are routed through the Internet to the trading terminals of the designated brokers with whom they are connected and further to the exchange for Ishan Institute of Management & Technology 114

2.6 Wireless Application Protocol (WAP)

SEBI has also approved trading through wireless medium on WAP Platform. NSE.IT launched the Wireless Application Protocol (WAP) in November 2000. This provides access to its order book through the hand held devices, which use WAP technology. This serves primarily retail investors who are mobile and want to trade from any place when the market prices for stocks at their choice are attractive. Only SEBI registered members who have been granted permission by the Exchange for providing Internet based trading services can introduce the service after obtaining permission from the Exchange.

LEGAL FRAMEWORK
This section deals with legislative and regulatory provisions relevant from the viewpoint of a trading member. The four main legislations governing the securities market are:(a) the Securities Contracts (Regulation) Act, 1956, which provides for regulation of transactions in securities through control over stock exchanges; (b) the Companies Act, 1956, which sets out the code of conduct for the corporate sector in relation to issue, allotment and transfer of securities, and disclosures to be made in public issues; (c) the SEBI Act, 1992 which establishes SEBI to protect investors and develop and regulate securities market; and (d) the Depositories Act, 1996 which provides for electronic maintenance and transfer of ownership of dematerialized securities. Legislations Capital Issues (Control) Act, 1947 The Act had its origin during the war in 1943 when the objective was to channel resources to support the war effort. It was retained with some modifications as a means of controlling the raising of capital by companies and to ensure that national resources were channeled into proper lines, i.e., for desirable purposes to serve goals and priorities of the government, and to protect the Ishan Institute of Management & Technology 116
Current scenario of Capital Market in India. interests of investors. Under the Act, any firm wishing to issue securities had to obtain approval from the Central Government, which also determined the amount, type and price of the issue. As a part of the liberalization process, the Act was repealed in 1992 paving way for market determined allocation of resources. Securities Contracts (Regulation) Act, 1956 It provides for direct and indirect control of virtually all aspects of securities trading and the running of stock exchanges and aims to prevent undesirable transactions in securities. It gives Central Government regulatory jurisdiction over (a) stock exchanges through a process of recognition and continued supervision, (b) contracts in securities, and (c) listing of securities on stock exchanges. As a condition of recognition, a stock exchange complies with conditions prescribed by Central Government. Organized trading activity in securities takes place on a specified recognized stock exchange. The stock exchanges determine their own listing regulations which have to conform to the minimum listing criteria set out in the Rules. SEBI Act, 1992 The SEBI Act, 1992 was enacted to empower SEBI with statutory powers for (a) protecting the interests of investors in securities, (b) promoting the development of the securities market, and (c) regulating the securities market. Its regulatory jurisdiction extends over corporate in the issuance of capital and transfer of securities, in addition to all intermediaries and persons associated with securities market. It can conduct enquiries, audits and inspection of all concerned and adjudicate offences under the Act. It has powers to register and regulate all market intermediaries and also to penalise them in case of violations of the provisions of the Act, Rules and Regulations made there under. SEBI has full autonomy and authority to regulate and develop an orderly securities market. Depositories Act, 1996 The Depositories Act, 1996 provides for the establishment of depositories in securities with the objective of ensuring free transferability of securities with speed, accuracy and security by (a) making securities of public limited companies freely transferable subject to certain exceptions; (b) dematerializing the securities in the depository mode; and (c) providing for maintenance of ownership records in a book entry form. In order to streamline the settlement process, the Act envisages transfer of ownership of securities electronically by book entry without making the securities move from person to person. The Act has made the securities of all public limited Ishan Institute of Management & Technology 117
Current scenario of Capital Market in India. companies freely transferable, restricting the companys right to use discretion in effecting the transfer of securities, and the transfer deed and other procedural requirements under the Companies Act have been dispensed with. Companies Act, 1956 It deals with issue, allotment and transfer of securities and various aspects relating to company management. It provides for standard of disclosure in public issues of capital, particularly in the fields of company management and projects, information about other listed companies under the same management, and management perception of risk factors. It also regulates underwriting, the use of premium and discounts on issues, rights and bonus issues, payment of interest and dividends, supply of annual report and other information. Rules and Regulations The Government has framed rules under the SC(R) A, SEBI Act and the Depositories Act. SEBI has framed regulations under the SEBI Act and the Depositories Act for registration and regulation of all market intermediaries, for prevention of unfair trade practices, insider trading, etc. Under these Acts, Government and SEBI issue notifications, guidelines, and circulars, which need to be complied with by market participants. The self-regulatory organizations (SROs) like stock exchanges have also laid down their rules of game. Regulators The regulators ensure that the market participants behave in a desired manner so that the securities market continues to be a major source of finance for corporate and government and the interest of investors are protected. The responsibility for regulating the securities market is shared by Department of Economic Affairs (DEA), Department of Company Affairs (DCA), Reserve Bank of India (RBI), Securities and Exchange Board of India (SEBI) and Securities Appellate Tribunal (SAT). Most of the powers under the SC(R)A are exercisable by Department of Economic Affairs (DEA), while a few others by SEBI. The powers of the DEA under the SC(R)A are also concurrently exercised by SEBI. The powers in respect of the contracts for sale and purchase of securities, gold-related securities, money market securities and securities derived from these securities and ready forward contracts in debt securities are exercised concurrently by RBI. The SEBI Act and the Depositories Act are mostly administered by SEBI. All these are administered by Ishan Institute of Management & Technology 118

The powers under the Companies Act relating to issue and transfer of securities and nonpayment of dividend are administered by SEBI in case of listed public companies and public companies proposing to get their securities listed. The SROs ensure compliance with their own rules relevant for them under the securities laws.
5.1 Securities Contracts (Regulation) Act, 1956

The Securities Contracts (Regulation) Act, 1956 [SC(R)A] was enacted to prevent undesirable transactions in securities by regulating the business of dealing therein and by providing for certain other matters connected therewith. This is the principal Act, which governs the trading of securities in India. The definitions of some of the important terms are given below: Recognised Stock Exchange means a stock exchange, which is for the time being recognised by the Central Government under Section 4 of the SC(R)A Stock Exchange means any body of individuals, whether incorporated or not, constituted for the purpose of assisting, regulating or controlling the business of buying, selling or dealing in securities. As per Section 2(h), the term "securities" include(I) shares, scrips, stocks, bonds, debentures, debenture stock or other marketable securities of a like nature in or of any incorporated company or other body corporate, (ii) Derivative, (iii) Units or any other instrument issued by any collective investment scheme to the investors in such schemes, (iv) Security receipts (v) Government securities, (vi) Such other instruments as may be declared by the Central Government to be securities, and (vii) Rights or interests in securities. As per section 2(aa), Derivative includesA. a security derived from a debt instrument, share, loan whether secured or unsecured, risk instrument or contract for differences or any other form of security; B. a contract which derives its value from the prices, or index of prices, of underlying securities; Ishan Institute of Management & Technology 119
Current scenario of Capital Market in India. Section 18A provides that notwithstanding anything contained in any other law for the time being in force, contracts in derivative shall be legal and valid if such contracts are(i) Traded on a recognised stock exchange; (ii) Settled on the clearing house of the recognised stock exchange, in accordance with the rules and bye-laws of such stock exchanges. "Spot delivery contract" has been defined in Section 2(i) to mean a contract which provides for(a) actual delivery of securities and the payment of a price therefore either on the same day as the date of the contract or on the next day, the actual period taken for the dispatch of the securities or the remittance of money therefore through the post being excluded from the computation of the period aforesaid if the parties to the contract do not reside in the same town or locality; (b) Transfer of the securities by the depository from the account of a beneficial owner to the account of another beneficial owner when such securities are dealt with by a depository. The SC(R)A deals with1. Stock exchanges, through a process of recognition and continued supervision, 2. Contracts in securities, and 3. Listing of securities on stock exchanges. Recognition of stock exchanges By virtue of the provisions of the Act, the business of dealing in securities cannot be carried out without registration from SEBI. Any Stock Exchange which is desirous of being recognised has to make an application under Section 3 of the Act to SEBI, which is empowered to grant recognition and prescribe conditions. This recognition can be withdrawn in the interest of the trade or public. SEBI is authorized to call for periodical returns from the recognised Stock Exchanges and make enquiries in relation to their affairs. Every Stock Exchange is obliged to furnish annual reports to SEBI. Recognised Stock Exchanges are allowed to make bylaws for the regulation and control of contracts but subject to the previous approval of SEBI and SEBI has the power to amend the said bylaws. The Central Government and SEBI have the power to supersede the governing body of any recognised stock exchange. Contracts in Securities Organized trading activity in securities takes place on a recognised stock exchange. If the Central Government is satisfied, having regard to the nature or the volume of transactions in securities in any State or area, that it is necessary so to do, it may, by notification in the Official Gazette, Ishan Institute of Management & Technology 120
Current scenario of Capital Market in India. declare provisions of section 13 to apply to such State or area, and thereupon every contract in such State or area which is entered into after date of the notification otherwise than between members of a recognised stock exchange in such State or area or through or with such member shall be illegal. The effect of this provision clearly is that if a transaction in securities has to be validly entered into, such a transaction has to be either between the members of a recognised stock exchange or through a member of a Stock Exchange. Listing of Securities Where securities are listed on the application of any person in any recognised stock exchange, such person shall comply with the conditions of the listing agreement with that stock exchange (Section 21). Where a recognised stock exchange acting in pursuance of any power given to it by its byelaws, refuses to list the securities of any company, the company shall be entitled to be furnished with reasons for such refusal and the company may appeal to Securities Appellate Tribunal (SAT) against such refusal.
Securities Contracts (Regulation) Rules, 1957

Settlement Process
While NSE provides a platform for trading to its trading members, the National Securities Clearing Corporation Ltd. (NSCCL) determines the funds/securities obligations of the trading members and ensures that trading members meet their obligations. NSCCL becomes the legal counterparty to the net settlement obligations of every member. This principle is called ``novation'' and NSCCL is obligated to meet all settlement obligations, regardless of member defaults, without any discretion. Once a member fails on any obligations, NSCCL immediately cuts off trading and initiates recovery. The clearing banks and depositories provide the necessary interface between the custodians/clearing members (who clear for the trading members or their own transactions) for Ishan Institute of Management & Technology 150
Current scenario of Capital Market in India. settlement of funds/securities obligations of trading members. The core processes involved in the settlement process are: (a) Determination of Obligation: NSCCL determines what counter-parties owe, and what counterparties are due to receive on the settlement date. The NSCCL interposes itself as a central counterparty between the counterparties to trades and nets the positions so that a member has security wise net obligation to receive or deliver a security and has to either pay or receive funds. (b) Pay-in of Funds and Securities: The members bring in their funds/securities to the NSCCL. They make available required securities in designated accounts with the depositories by the prescribed pay-in time. The depositories move the securities available in the accounts of members to the account of the NSCCL. Likewise members with funds obligations make available required funds in the designated accounts with clearing banks by the prescribed pay-in time. The NSCCL sends electronic instructions to the clearing banks to debit members accounts to the extent of payment obligations. The banks process these instructions, debit accounts of members and credit accounts of the NSCCL. (c) Pay-out of Funds and Securities: After processing for shortages of funds/securities and arranging for movement of funds from surplus banks to deficit banks through RBI clearing, the NSCCL sends electronic instructions to the depositories/clearing banks to release pay-out of securities/funds. The depositories and clearing banks debit accounts of NSCCL and credit settlement accounts of members. Settlement is complete upon release of pay-out of funds and securities to custodians/members. The settlement process for transactions in securities in the CM segment of NSE is presented in the Figure 3.2 (d) Risk Management: A sound risk management system is integral to an efficient settlement system. NSCCL has put in place a comprehensive risk management system, which is constantly monitored and upgraded to pre-empt market failures. It monitors the track record and performance of members and their net worth; undertakes on-line monitoring of members positions and exposure in the market, collects margins from members and automatically disables members if the limits are breached.
3.3 Settlement Agencies

The NSCCL, with the help of clearing members, custodians, clearing banks and depositories settles the trades executed on exchanges. The roles of each of these entities are explained below: Ishan Institute of Management & Technology 151
Current scenario of Capital Market in India. (a) NSCCL: The NSCCL is responsible for post-trade activities of a stock exchange. Clearing and settlement of trades and risk management are its central functions. It clears all trades, determines obligations of members, arranges for pay-in of funds/securities, receives funds/securities, processes for shortages in funds/securities, arranges for pay-out of funds/securities to members, guarantees settlement, and collects and maintains margins/collateral/base capital/other funds. (b) Clearing Members: They are responsible for settling their obligations as determined by the NSCCL. They have to make available funds and/or securities in the designated accounts with clearing bank/depository participant, as the case may be, to meet their obligations on the settlement day. In the capital market segment, all trading members of the Exchange are required to become the Clearing Member of the Clearing Corporation. (c) Custodians: A custodian is a person who holds for safekeeping the documentary evidence of the title to property belonging like share certificates, etc. The title to the custodians property remains vested with the original holder, or in their nominee(s), or custodian trustee, as the case may be. In NSCCL, custodian is a clearing member but not a trading member. He settles trades assigned to him by trading members. He is required to confirm whether he is going to settle a particular trade or not. If it is confirmed, the NSCCL assigns that obligation to that custodian and the custodian is required to settle it on the settlement day. If the custodian rejects the trade, the obligation is assigned back to the trading /clearing member.

Explanations: (1) Trade details from Exchange to NSCCL (real-time and end of day trade file). (2) NSCCL notifies the consummated trade details to CMs/custodians who affirm back. Based on the affirmation, NSCCL applies multilateral netting and determines obligations. (3) Download of obligation and pay-in advice of funds/securities. (4) Instructions to clearing banks to make funds available by pay-in time. (5) Instructions to depositories to make securities available by pay-in-time. (6) Pay-in of securities (NSCCL advises depository to debit pool account of custodians/CMs and credit its account and depository does it). (7) Pay-in of funds (NSCCL advises Clearing Banks to debit account of custodians/CMs and credit its account and clearing bank does it). (8) Pay-out of securities (NSCCL advises depository to credit pool account of custodians/CMs and debit its account and depository does it). (9) Pay-out of funds (NSCCL advises Clearing Banks to credit account of custodians/CMs and debit its account and clearing bank does it). (10) Depository informs custodians/CMs through DPs. (11) Clearing Banks inform custodians/CMs. (d) Clearing Banks: Clearing banks are a key link between the clearing members andNSCCL for funds settlement. Every clearing member is required to open a dedicated settlement account with one of the clearing banks. Based on his obligation as determined through clearing, the clearing member makes funds available in the clearing account for the pay-in and receives funds in case of a pay-out. Multiple clearing banks provide advantages of competitive forces, facilitate introduction of new products viz. working capital funding, anywhere banking facilities, the option to members to settle funds through a bank, which provides the maximum services suitable to the member. The Ishan Institute of Management & Technology 153
Current scenario of Capital Market in India. clearing banks are required to provide the following services as a single window to all clearing members of National Securities Clearing Corporation Ltd. as also to the Clearing Corporation: Branch network in cities that cover bulk of the trading cum clearing members High level automation including electronic funds transfer (EFT) facilities Facilities like (a) dedicated branch facilities (b) software to interface with the Clearing Corporation (c) access to accounts information on a real time basis Value-added services to members such as free-of-cost funds transfer across centers etc. Providing working capital funds Stock lending facilities Services as Professional Clearing Members Services as Depository Participants Other Capital Market related facilities All other banking facilities like issuing bank guarantees / credit facilities etc. (e) Depositories: A depository is an entity where the securities of an investor are held in electronic form. The person who holds a demat account is a beneficiary owner. In case of a joint account, the account holders will be beneficiary holders of that joint account. Depositories help in the settlement of the dematerialised securities. Each custodian/clearing member is required to maintain a clearing pool account with the depositories. He is required to make available the required securities in the designated account on settlement day. The depository runs an electronic file to transfer the securities from accounts of the custodians/clearing member to that of NSCCL. As per the schedule of allocation of securities determined by the NSCCL, the depositories transfer the securities on the pay-out day from the account of the NSCCL to those of members/custodians. (f) Professional Clearing Member: NSCCL admits special category of members namely, professional clearing members. Professional Clearing Member (PCM) may clear and settle trades executed for their clients (individuals, institutions etc.). In such an event, the functions and responsibilities of the PCM would be similar to Custodians. PCMs may also undertake clearing and settlement responsibility for trading members. In such a case, the PCM would settle the trades carried out by the trading members connected to them. The onus for settling the trade would be thus on the PCM and not the trading member. A PCM has no trading rights but has only clearing rights, i.e. he just clears the trades of his associate trading members and institutional clients.
3.4 Risks in Settlement

Current scenario of Capital Market in India. The following two kinds of risks are inherent in a settlement system: (1) Counterparty Risk: This arises if parties do not discharge their obligations fully when due or at any time thereafter. This has two components, namely replacement cost risk prior to settlement and principal risk during settlement. (a) The replacement cost risk arises from the failure of one of the parties to transaction. While the non-defaulting party tries to replace the original transaction at current prices, he loses the profit that has accrued on the transaction between the date of original transaction and date of replacement transaction. The seller/buyer of the security loses this unrealised profit if the current price is below/above the transaction price. Both parties encounter this risk as prices are uncertain. It has been reduced by reducing time gap between transaction and settlement and by legally binding netting systems. (b) The principal risk arises if a party discharges his obligations but the counterparty defaults. The seller/buyer of the security suffers this risk when he delivers/makes payment, but does not receive payment/delivery. This risk can be eliminated by delivery vs. payment mechanism which ensures delivery only against payment. This has been reduced by having a central counterparty (NSCCL) which becomes the buyer to every eller and the seller to every buyer. A variant of counterparty risk is liquidity risk which arises if one of the parties to transaction does not settle on the settlement date, but later. The seller/buyer who does not receive payment/delivery when due, may have to borrow funds/securities to complete his payment/delivery obligations. Another variant is the third party risk which arises if the parties to trade are permitted or required to use the services of a third party which fails to perform. For example, the failure of a clearing bank which helps in payment can disrupt settlement. This risk is reduced by allowing parties to have accounts with multiple banks. Similarly, the users of custodial services face risk if the concerned custodian becomes insolvent, acts negligently, etc. (2) System Risk: This comprises of operational, legal and systemic risks. The operational risk arises from possible operational failures such as errors, fraud, outages etc. The legal risk arises if the laws or regulations do not support enforcement of settlement obligations or are uncertain. Systemic risk arises when failure of one of the parties to discharge his obligations leads to failure by other parties. The domino effect of successive failures can cause a failure of the settlement system. These risks have been contained by enforcement of an elaborate margining and capital Ishan Institute of Management & Technology 155
Current scenario of Capital Market in India. adequacy standards to secure market integrity, settlement guarantee funds to provide counter-party guarantee, legal backing for settlement activities and business continuity plan, etc.
3.5 Settlement Cycle

At the end of each trading day, concluded or locked-in trades are received from NSE by NSCCL. NSCCL determines the cumulative obligations of each member and electronically transfers the data to Clearing Members (CMs). All trades concluded during a particular trading period are settled together. A multilateral netting procedure is adopted to determine the net settlement obligations (delivery/receipt positions) of CMs. NSCCL then allocates or assigns delivery of securities inter se the members to arrive at the delivery and receipt obligation of funds and securities by each member. On the securities pay-in day, delivering members are required to bring in securities to NSCCL.On pay out day the securities are delivered to the respective receiving members. Settlement is deemed to be complete upon declaration and release of pay-out of funds and securities. Exceptions may arise because of short delivery of securities by CMs, bad deliveries or company objections on the pay-out day. NSCCL identifies short deliveries and conducts a buying-in auction on the day after the pay-out day through the NSE trading system. The delivering CM is debited by an amount equivalent to the securities not delivered and valued at a valuation price (the closing price as announced by NSE on the day previous to the day of the valuation). If the buy-in auction price is more than the valuation price, the CM is required to make good the difference. All shortages not bought-in are deemed closed out at the highest price between the first day of the trading period till the day of squaring off or closing price on the auction day plus 20%, whichever is higher. This amount is credited to the receiving member's account on the auction payout day.
Bad Deliveries (in case of physical settlement)

Bad deliveries (deliveries which are prima facie defective) are required to be reported to the clearing house within two days from the receipt of documents. The delivering member is required to rectify these within two days. Un-rectified bad deliveries are assigned to auction on the next day.
Company Objections (in case of physical settlement)

Company objections arise when, on lodgment of the securities with the company/Share Transfer Agent (STA) for transfer, which are returned due to signature mismatch or for any other reason for which the transfer of security cannot be effected. The original selling CM is normally responsible Ishan Institute of Management & Technology 156
Current scenario of Capital Market in India. for rectifying/replacing defective documents to the receiving CM as per pre-notified schedule. The CM on whom company objection is lodged has an opportunity to withdraw the objection if the objection is not valid or the documents are incomplete (i.e. not as required under guideline No.100 or 109 of SEBI Good/Bad delivery guidelines), within 7 days of lodgement against him. If the CM is unable to rectify/replace defective documents on or before 21 days, NSCCL conducts a buyingin auction for the non-rectified part of defective document on the next auction day through the trading system of NSE. All objections, which are not bought-in, are deemed closed out on the auction day at the closing price on the auction day plus 20%. This amount is credited to the receiving member's account on the auction pay-out day. Till June, 2001 trades were settled as account period settlement. Following Finance Ministers announcement on March 13, 2001 that the rolling settlement would be extended to 200 category A stocks in MCFS, ALBM and BLESS by July, 2001, SEBI decided that all 263 scrips included in the ALBM/BLESS or MCFS in any stock exchange or in the BSE-200 list would be traded only in the compulsory rolling settlement on all the exchanges from July 2, 2001. Further, SEBI mandated rolling settlement for the remaining securities from December 31, 2001. The settlement cycle would be reduced from T+5 to T+3 from April 1, 2002. With effect from April 1, 2003 the settlement cycle has been further reduced from T+3 to T+2. Normal Market In a rolling settlement, trade day is T day, T+1 day and T+2 day for NSCCL. The trades executed each trading day are considered as a trading period and trades executed during the day are settled based on the net obligations for the day. At NSE, trades in rolling settlement are settled on a T+2 basis i.e. on the 2nd working day. Typically trades taking place on Monday are settled on Wednesday, Tuesday's trades settled on Thursday and so on. A tabular representation of the settlement cycle for rolling settlement is given below:

Salient features of Limited Physical Market settlement. Delivery of shares in street name and market delivery (clients holding physical shares purchased from the secondary market) is treated as bad delivery. The shares standing in the name of individuals/HUF only would constitute good delivery. The selling/delivering member must necessarily be the introducing member. Any delivery in excess of 500 shares is marked as short and such deliveries are compulsorily closed-out. Shortages, if any, are compulsorily closed-out at 20% over the actual traded price. Unrectified bad delivery and re-bad delivery are compulsorily closed out at 20% over the actual traded price. All deliveries are compulsorily be required to be attested by the introducing/ delivering member. The buyer must compulsorily send the securities for transfer and dematerialisation, latest within 3 months from the date of pay-out.

The member entering the invalid order shall further be liable for disciplinary action, which may include penalties, penal action, withdrawal of trading facilities, suspension etc. Members are not allowed the facility of trade warehousing for this segment and accordingly members are not required to mark the orders for NCIT and warehousing. If any orders are marked for the Clearing Corporation shall remove NCIT and / or warehousing the same. Shortages, if any, are compulsorily closed-out at 20% over the actual trade price. Deals executed in this segment are cleared on a T+2 rolling basis. Settlement for all trades is done on a trade-fortrade basis and delivery obligation arises out of each trade.

Members are required to open accounts with depository participants of both the depositories, NSDL and CDSL. Delivering members are required to deliver all documents to the Clearing House (in case of physical settlement) between 9:30 a.m. and 10:30 a.m. on the settlement day. Receiving members are required to collect the documents from the Clearing House between 2:00 p.m. and 2:30 p.m. In case of dematerialised settlement, the members receive their obligation by 1.30 pm on T + 1 day. The members need to arrange for the securities as per their obligations and give instructions by 10.30 am on the pay-in day. In case of NSDL the members need to give instructions to move the securities to the settlement account of NSCCL, whereas in case of CDSL the members need to ensure that the necessary quantity of securities are available in their pool account. The members need to ensure that the settlement number and type are correctly entered to avoid any defaults. The depository would credit the receiving members' receipt account within his CM clearing account with the depository on or after 2:30 p.m. on the pay-out day. Pursuant to SEBI directive (vide its circular SMDRP/Policy/Cir-05/2001 dated February 1, 2001) NSCCL has introduced a settlement system for direct delivery of securities to the investors accounts with effect from April 2, 2001.
Direct Payout to Investors

SEBI vide its circular no.SMDRP/Policy/Cir-05/2001 dated February 1, 2001 had directed stock exchanges to introduce a settlement system for direct delivery of securities to the investors accounts with effect from April 2, 2001. Accordingly, NSCCL has introduced the facility of direct payout to clients' account on both the depositories. It ascertains from each clearing member, the beneficiary account details of their respective clients who are due to receive pay out of securities. NSCCL has provided its members with a front-end for creating the file through which the information is provided to NSCCL. Based on the information received from members, the Clearing Corporation sends payout instructions to the depositories, so that the client receives the pay out of securities directly to their accounts on the pay-out day. The client receives payout to the extent of instructions received from the respective clearing members. To the extent of instruction not received, the securities are credited to the CM pool account of the member. Salient features of Direct Payout to Investors Ishan Institute of Management & Technology 161
Current scenario of Capital Market in India. Clearing members are required to provide a file to NSCCL for effecting pay out to investors' accounts for a particular settlement type, settlement number and delivery type. The file is to be provided as per the structure specified by NSCCL. Clearing members are provided with an application in the clearing front end for the purpose of capturing the requisite data and generating the file. This front end is a part of the Clearing Front End Version 4.2, which is available on the extranet in the 'common/clearing' directory. The time limit for submission of files is up to 9.30.am on the pay out day The files are uploaded by NSCCL in its system and returned with the indication of the success/rejection of the file and the records. This is purely a validation of the correctness of the file and record formats. Clearing members shall provide details of beneficiary account of the clients of the trading members in any one of the depositories. Credit to the accounts of various constituents (i.e. client account and CM Pool / CM Clearing account) would be in the same order as specified by the clearing member in the file given to NSCCL. If for any client account record, the quantity requested for direct payout is more than the balance available for pay out to the clearing member in that depository, the quantity available in that depository shall only be directly credited to members settlement account in that depository. Example: The member is supposed to receive pay out of 1100 shares for particular script. The member has allocated the pay out as under: Client Name A B C Depository CDSL CDSL CDSL Quantity 100 500 500
The member receives 1000 shares in CDSL and 100 shares in NSDL. The allocation of qty will be as under Client Name A B C Depository CDSL CDSL CDSL Quantity 100 500 0
Current scenario of Capital Market in India. Members pool Members pool CDSL NSDL 400 100
If the member receives entire 1100 shares in NSDL the same will be transferred to members pool account in NSDL. In the following situations, the pay out shall be credited to CM Pool / Clearing account of the clearing members : a. Where the clearing members fail to provide the details of the beneficiary account or where the credit to the beneficiary accounts of the clients fail, or any account whatsoever b. The remaining quantity received from other depository as pay out shall be credited to the CM Pool / Clearing account of the clearing member with the respective depositories If the member's client has not paid the dues to the member for the said securities or for any other reason, the member has valid justification not to release the payout of a client direct in such a situation the member may not be giving the beneficiary account details of such client's in the file. In case the investor has paid the dues for delivery of securities and there is no valid justification for not releasing pay-out directly to the client, the member has to provide the details of its clients beneficiary account so that direct credit can be given to the client.
3.7 Funds Settlement

Currently, NSCCL offers settlement of funds through 10 clearing banks namely Canara Bank, HDFC Bank, Global Trust Bank, IndusInd Bank, ICICI Bank, UTI Bank, Centurion Bank, Bank of India and IDBI Bank, Standard Chartered Bank. Every Clearing Member is required to maintain and operate a clearing account with any one of the empanelled clearing banks at the designated clearing bank branches. The clearing account is to be used exclusively for clearing & settlement operations. Clearing Account: Every Clearing Member is required to maintain and operate a clearing account with any one of the empanelled clearing banks at the designated clearing bank branches. The clearing account is to be used exclusively for clearing operations i.e., for settling funds and other obligations to the Clearing Corporation including payments of margins and penal charges. Clearing Members are required to authorise the Clearing Bank to access their clearing account for debiting and crediting their accounts, reporting of balances and other information as may be required by NSCCL from time to Ishan Institute of Management & Technology 163
Current scenario of Capital Market in India. time as per the specified format. The Clearing Bank will debit/ credit the clearing account of clearing members as per instructions received from the Clearing Corporation. A Clearing member can deposit funds into this account in any form, but can withdraw funds from this account only in selfname. Change in Clearing Bank: In case a Clearing Member wishes to shift a clearing account from one designated Clearing Bank to another, the procedure is as follows: 1. The Clearing Member is required to lodge his request with the Clearing Bank where he is maintaining a clearing account, seeking permission to shift his clearing account to another designated clearing bank and send an acknowledged copy of the same to the Clearing Corporation. 2. The Clearing Member is required to obtain a "No Objection Certificate" (NOC) from his existing bank. 3. On receipt of the NOC from the existing bank, the Clearing Corporation shall issue a letter of introduction to the clearing bank the member wishes to shift his clearing account to. 4. The Clearing Member, is required to submit an acknowledged copy of the letter sent to the new clearing bank to the Clearing Corporation, on opening the clearing account with the designated clearing bank. Funds settlement: Members are informed of their funds obligation for various settlements through the daily clearing data download. The daily funds statement gives date-wise details of each debit/ credit transaction in the members clearing account whereas the summary statement summarises the same information for a quick reference. The member account may be debited for various types of transactions on a daily basis. The member is required to ensure that adequate funds are available in the clearing account towards all obligations, on the scheduled date and time. The member can refer to his various obligation statements and provide for funds accordingly. To ensure timely fulfillment of funds obligations, members may avail of the facility of standing instructions to transfer the requisite amount from some other account to the clearing account or a Temporary Overdraft facility from the bank. In case the member has availed such a facility, the member may furnish details of his obligation to the bank to ensure timely transfer of funds towards the same to avoid inconvenience. The member with a funds pay-in obligation is required to have clear funds in Ishan Institute of Management & Technology 164
Current scenario of Capital Market in India. his account on or before 11.00 a.m. on the scheduled pay-in day. The payout of funds is credited to the clearing account of the members on or after 1.30 p.m. on the scheduled payout day. Funds shortages: In pursuance of chapter IV of the Byelaws of the NSCCL and Regulations framed there under, all clearing members are requested to note that on account of settlement funds shortages trading may not be permitted and securities payout withheld as as per the norm in place from time to timePenal Charges Penalties are charged to members for: (a) failure to fulfil their funds obligations (b) failure to fulfil their securities deliverable obligations (c) Gross Exposure & Turnover Violations (d) Margin Shortages (e) Security Deposit Shortages (f) Other violations in respect of client code modifications, non-confirmation of custodial trades, company objections reported against the members' etc. Penalty Points Penalty points are charged to members for: (a) Gross Exposure & Turnover Violations (b) Other violations in respect of client code modifications, non-confirmation of custodial trades, company objections reported against the members' etc. Penalty points are calculated for each settlement and accumulated for all the settlements over each calendar month. Penalty points are imposed over and above penal interest and other charges. At the beginning of the first settlement period of each month the cumulated points will be reset to zero. Type of Default Penalty points per settlement
Gross Exposure or Turnover Violation for Rs.5 lacs or more Gross Exposure or Turnover Violation for 4 2
less than Rs.5 lacs Non Confirmation of Custodial Trades 4 Client code modifications of more than 5 4 instances
Current scenario of Capital Market in India. The following penalties are imposed for penalty points earned during each calendar month: Penalty Points Penalty
0 to 20 21 to 30 31 to 50 51 to 100 Over 100 No action Reprimand letter A fine of Rs.2000/- per point over 30 points A fine of Rs.5000/- per point over 50 points plus RS 40000 Allowable exposure to be reduced by 75% for 10 settlements in normal regular market
In addition to the above, a penal interest at the rate of 9 basis points for each day of default will be levied on the members who fail to pay the penalty imposed on them.
Parties involved in clearing and settlement
Stock Brokers
Introduction A broker is an intermediary who arranges to buy and sell securities on behalf of clients (the buyer and the seller). According to Rule 2 (e) of SEBI (Stock Brokers and Sub-Brokers) Rules, 1992, a stockbroker means a member of a recognized stock exchange.

Current scenario of Capital Market in India. Education and Experience. Where an applicant is a corporate, not less than two directors of the company (in case of a sole proprietorship, individual and in case of a partnership firm, two partners) should satisfy the following criteria: They should be at least graduates and each of them should possess at least two years' experience in an activity related to broker, sub-broker, authorized agent or authorized clerk or authorized representative or remisier or apprentice to a member of a recognised stock exchange. Such experience will include working as a dealer, jobber, market maker, or in any other manner in the dealing in securities or clearing and settlement thereof, as portfolio manager or merchant bankers or as a researcher with any individual or organization operating in the securities market. Shareholding Pattern: Securities markets have the inherent tendency to be volatile and risky. Therefore, there should be adequate risk containment mechanisms in place for the Stock Exchanges. One such risk containment tool is the concept of Dominant Promoter/Shareholder Group which is very unique for applicants acquiring membership on the NSE. Though membership on NSE is granted to the entity applying for it, but for all practical purposes the entity is managed by a few shareholders who have controlling interest in the company. The shareholders holding the majority of shares have a dominant role in the affairs of the company. In case of any default by the broking entity, the Exchange should be able to identify and take action against the persons who are behind the company. The Exchange, therefore, needs to know the background, financial soundness and integrity of these shareholders holding such controlling interest. Hence, during the admission process the dominant shareholders are called for an interview with the Membership Approval Committee. Salient features on the concept of Dominant Promoter/Shareholder Group: a) Dominant Promoter / Shareholder Group (DPG) is a group of shareholders of the Trading member corporate who normally would be individuals, not exceeding 4 in number, and who would jointly and/or severally hold not less than 51% of shares (40% in case of listed companies) in the trading member corporate at the time of admission as well as subsequently at all relevant points of time. b) The shareholding/interest of close relatives of the DPG viz. Parents, spouse, children, brothers and sisters would also be counted for arriving at total dominant holding / interest of a particular dominant shareholder, if such relative(s) give an unqualified and irrevocable support in writing to the concerned dominant shareholder in respect of such holding / interest. Ishan Institute of Management & Technology 170
Current scenario of Capital Market in India. c) Corporate shareholders of the trading member company can also extend their support to the DPG, provided the shareholding of the Dominant Promoter Group along with the support of their specified relatives in the corporate shareholder is not less than 51% or 40%, as the case may be. The indirect shareholding shall be calculated proportionately by reckoning the direct shareholding of the DPG along with the support of their specified relatives in the corporate shareholder of the trading member company. d) If none of the dominant promoters/shareholders is a Director on the Board of Directors of the trading member company, then at least two other directors having the requisite experience and qualification shall hold a minimum of 5% shares (each) in the paid up equity capital of the trading member company. Once a trading entity nominates/determines a group of shareholders (1 to 4) as the DPG, no other shareholder (existing or new) would be allowed to join the DPG. However, one or more shareholders within the DPG may be allowed to divest their shares and quit the group. In such an eventuality, it is to be ensured that the remaining dominant shareholders always maintain among themselves, a minimum of 51% of the shares of the company (40% in case of listed trading member corporate) at all points of time. Failure to maintain this required level of shareholding will be treated as a breach of the continuing membership norms, which would tantamount to a reconstitution of the trading member corporate as the existing DPG would no longer hold controlling interest in the trading member corporate or alternatively a new group would have emerged with controlling stake. NSE would immediately withdraw the trading facility of such trading members. They could be re-instated upon rectifying the defect or seeking the approval of the Exchange for identifying the new group of shareholders as the dominant shareholders, for which the process of going through the Membership Approval Committee and the Board will need to be followed. e) The DPG may also be permitted to consist of corporate shareholders, provided: The trading member is a wholly owned subsidiary of another company The said holding company is not a subsidiary of any other company The identifiable individual dominant promoter(s) (not more than 4) hold at least 51% of the share capital of the holding company, or there are two or more listed corporate shareholders jointly holding at least 51% of the share capital of the holding company or one or more listed corporate shareholders along with individual shareholders together, not exceeding four in number, jointly hold at least 51% of the shares of the holding company, Provided that in none of the above Ishan Institute of Management & Technology 171
Current scenario of Capital Market in India. instances the holding company of the trading member corporate becomes the subsidiary of another corporate. The said dominant promoters undertake in writing, not to dilute their shareholding in the holding company without prior consent of the Exchange. Such corporate dominant shareholders are widely held listed Finance companies having net worth of Rs. 20 crores and above and their debt instruments, if any, have been accorded at least investment grade credit rating by reputed rating agencies. If such corporate dominant shareholders are non-finance companies listed on NSE and have a net worth of Rs. 20 crores and their debt instruments, if any, have been accorded at least investment grade credit rating by reputed rating agencies, then such a company shall be permitted to be included in the DPG. Private Banks, central or state government owned Finance and/or Development Institutions etc are also allowed to be identified as dominant shareholder(s) even if they are not listed provided they have a net worth of at least Rs. 20 crores and the debt instruments, if any, have investment grade credit rating made by one of the reputed credit rating agencies. The aforesaid norms are also applicable to trading members who are partnership firms. The term dominant shareholder/promoter may be substituted as dominant partner. Continuing Membership Trading members of the Exchange have to submit the following documents/information to the Exchange on an annual basis as part of the continuing membership norms. Non-submission of the required documents/information attracts disciplinary action by the Exchange including levy of penalty, reduction of gross exposure, etc. 1. Audited Financial statements (Balance Sheet, Profit and Loss Account) 2. Net worth Certificate in the prescribed format duly certified by a Chartered Accountant. (every half yearly) 3. Details of directors, shareholders, dominant shareholders, etc. duly certified by a Chartered Accountant. 4. Proof of renewal of Insurance Cover.

Trading members intending to do so should take note of the following: a) A request has to be sent by the trading member indicating the scheme of up gradation and the proposed shareholding pattern of the corporate. b) In case of an up gradation from individual to Corporate, the individual should hold at least 51% of the paid up capital of the proposed corporate (40% in case of listed corporate). c) In case of an upgradation from partnership firm to Corporate, the original partners should hold atleast 51% of the paid up capital of the proposed corporate (40% in case of listed corporate). d) There should be at least 2 qualified directors who should be graduates with minimum 2 years experience in stock broking related activities. e) The proposed corporate should have a minimum paid up capital of Rs. 30 lakh and meet the net worth requirements of the Exchange from time to time. f) After the up gradation is approved by the Exchange, the trading member will have to pay the differential deposits as applicable to corporate trading members. Merger/Amalgamation of Membership: Trading members desirous of merging among themselves are required to submit the proposal to the Exchange for approval. The salient features are as follows: a) The dominant promoter group of the merged entity shall comprise of only the dominant members of the merging Trading Member. b) When two or more Individual Trading Members merge to form either a partnership firm or a corporate, the dominant group of partners / shareholders in such emerging Trading Member entity shall comprise of any or all such individual Trading Members. c) In case of merger between two or more Individual / partnership firms Trading Members resulting in the formation of a new partnership firm or corporate; the dominant group of partners / shareholders in such emerging firms or corporate Trading Member shall comprise of any or all the dominant partners / shareholders of such merging Trading Members. d) In case of merger between two or more corporate trading members, the dominant group of shareholders in such emerging corporate Trading Member shall comprise of any or all the dominant shareholders of such merging Trading Members.

Such deposits of the extinguishing Trading Members will be refunded to the merged entity only after the expiry of the respective lock in period of each of the extinguishing Trading Members. No interest shall be paid by the Exchange /NSCCL on such deposits. These deposits may however be considered towards net worth / capital adequacy requirements / exposure limits of the merged entity, as also for margin purposes. g) The scheme of merger shall provide that the merged entity shall honour all the financial commitments / obligations/ liabilities of all the extinguishing Trading Members that devolved prior to merger or may devolve subsequent to the merger and shall be treated as if it were the liability of the merged entity. h) As soon as the application for merger is filed before the High Court, the extinguishing broking entity should approach SEBI through the Stock Exchange for obtaining prior permission, to the scheme of merger, giving all necessary details of the proposal. i) The emerging entity would be allowed to trade on the registration of the extinguishing entity for a period of 45 days. However, the emerging entity should apply to SEBI at the earliest and give an undertaking to be liable for the act of the extinguishing entity and such applications in any case should be made not later than 30 days of the registration granted by the Registrar of companies to the emerging entity. Reconstitution / Transfer of Membership: Reconstitution / Transfer of Membership takes place when the shareholding/profit sharing ratio of existing Dominant Promoter/Shareholder/Partner group falls below 51% (40% in case of listed corporates) which means that effectively they are no more in control of the trading member entity. Trading members desirous of transferring their trading membership of the Exchange are requested to refer to the circulars issued by the Exchange from time to time in this regard and submit the proposal to the Exchange for approval. The salient features are as follows: Ishan Institute of Management & Technology 174

Multiple Memberships: The Exchange does not permit multiple memberships among he same set of dominant promoters/shareholders. However, there may be a need for the existing trading members to take up more than one membership on the NSE for various reasons like client segregation, market or business segregation, etc. In such cases, multiple memberships may be permitted by the Exchange only in cases where the existing trading member corporate forms a subsidiary. The following requirements need to be complied with by the applicant company and the holding company for related entities to obtain membership of the Exchange: 1. In the application for new membership, the applicant shall identify the holding company, which is a member of the Exchange. 2. Board resolution from the existing trading member corporate for applying for new membership in the name of the subsidiary. 3. The existing trading member should be the dominant promoter/shareholder directly holding at least 51% of the shareholding of the company. 4. In case of transfer of membership of holding company, both the companies will be required to comply with the transfer provisions. 5. Majority of the directors should be appointed by the holding company. The same should be incorporated in the articles of association of the subsidiary company. 6. Undertaking from the existing as well as the applicant subsidiary company that they may be considered as a single unit for taking any disciplinary action by the Exchange. 7.

Depositories
A depository is an entity where the securities of an investor are held in electronic form. The person who holds a demat account is a beneficiary owner. In case of a joint account, the account holders will be beneficiary holders of that joint account. Depositories help in the settlement of the dematerialized securities. Each custodian/clearing member is required to maintain a clearing pool account with the depositories. He is required to make available the required securities in the designated account on settlement day. The depository runs an electronic file to transfer the securities from accounts of the custodians/clearing member to that of NSCCL. As per the schedule of allocation of securities determined by the NSCCL, the depositories transfer the securities on the pay-out day from the account of the NSCCL to those of members/custodians.

National Stock Exchange.

The National Stock Exchange of India Limited (NSE) 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. The Group

Over The Counter Exchange of India (OTCEI) was incorporated in 1990 as a Section 25 company under the Companies Act 1956 and is recognized as a stock exchange under Section 4 of the Securities Contracts Regulation Act, 1956. The Exchange was set up to aid enterprising promoters in raising finance for new projects in a cost effective manner and to provide investors with a transparent & efficient mode of trading. Modelled along the lines of the NASDAQ market of USA, OTCEI introduced many novel concepts to the Indian capital markets such as screen-based nationwide trading, sponsorship of companies, market making and scripless trading.
NSE Indexes
Equities trading at NSE began in November 1994. By late 1995, NSE became India's largest equity market and was looking for a market index to utilise this unique information source. NSE also wanted to have a vehicle for the futures and options market. NSE approached the economists Dr. Ajay Shah and Dr. Susan Thomas, then at CMIE (and now at IGIDR), to do research on methods in index construction. This work was funded by the USAID FIRE project and led to the S&P CNX Nifty.
Index futures
Current scenario of Capital Market in India. NSE has been gearing up from 1995 onwards to start an index futures market. Trading in S&P CNX Nifty futures will soon commence here. With NSE's expertise, this futures market is expected to become reliable and liquid. S&P CNX Nifty is uniquely equipped as an index for the index futures market owing to (a) low market impact cost and (b) high hedging effectiveness. The good diversification of S&P CNX Nifty will generate low initial margin requirements. Finally, S&P CNX Nifty is calculated using NSE prices, and NSE is the most liquid exchange in India, thus making it easier to do arbitrage for S&P CNX Nifty index futures.
S&P CNX Defty

S&P CNX Defty is S&P CNX Nifty, measured in dollars. If the S&P CNX Nifty rises by 2% it means that the Indian stock market rose by 2%, measured in rupees. If the S&P CNX Defty rises by 2%, it means that the Indian stock market rose by 2%, measured in dollars. The S&P CNX Defty is calculated in realtime. Data for the S&P CNX Nifty and the dollar--rupee is absorbed in realtime, and used to calculate the S&P CNX Defty in realtime. Realtime currency data is obtained from Knight Ridder. When there is currency volatility, the S&P CNX Defty is an ideal device for a foreign investor to know where he stands, even intraday.
S&P CNX Nifty

S&P CNX Nifty is the first rung of the largest, highly liquid stocks in India. CNX Nifty Junior is an index built out of the next 50 large, liquid stocks in India. It is not as liquid as the S&P CNX Nifty, which implies that the information in the CNX Nifty Junior is not as noise-free as that of the S&P CNX Nifty. It may be useful to think of the S&P CNX Nifty and the CNX Nifty Junior as making up the 100 most liquid stocks in India. S&P CNX Nifty is the front line blue-chips, large and highly liquid Ishan Institute of Management & Technology 191
Current scenario of Capital Market in India. stocks. The CNX Nifty Junior is the second rung of growth stocks which are not as established as those in the S&P CNX Nifty. Stocks like Infosys and NIIT, which recently graduated into the S&P CNX Nifty, were in the CNX Nifty Junior for a long time prior to this. CNX Nifty Junior can be viewed as an incubator where young growth stocks are found. As with the S&P CNX Nifty, stocks in the CNX Nifty Junior are filtered for liquidity, so they are the most liquid of the stocks excluded from the S&P CNX Nifty. Buying and selling the entire CNX Nifty Junior as a portfolio is feasible. The maintenance of the S&P CNX Nifty and the CNX Nifty Junior are synchronised so that the two indexes will always be disjoint sets; i.e. a stock will never appear in both indexes at the same time. Hence it is always meaningful to pool the S&P CNX Nifty and the CNX Nifty Junior into a composite 100 stock index or portfolio. S&P CNX Nifty is based upon solid economic research. A trillion calculations were expended to evolve the rules inside the S&P CNX Nifty index. The results of this work are remarkably simple: (a) the correct size to use is 50, (b) stocks considered for the S&P CNX Nifty must be liquid by the `impact cost' criterion, (c) the largest 50 stocks that meet the criterion go into the index. S&P CNX Nifty is a contrast to the adhoc methods that have gone into index construction in the preceding years, where indexes were made out of intuition and lacked a scientific basis. The research that led up to S&P CNX Nifty is well-respected internationally as a pioneering effort in better understanding how to make a stock market index.
OTCEI OVER THE COUNTER EXCHANGE OF INDIA.

Over The Counter Exchange of India (OTCEI) was incorporated in 1990 as a Section 25 company under the Companies Act 1956 and is recognized as a stock exchange under Section 4 of the Securities Contracts Regulation Act, 1956. The Exchange was set up to aid enterprising promoters in raising finance for new projects in a cost effective manner and to provide investors with a transparent & efficient mode of trading.

Modelled along the lines of the NASDAQ market of USA, OTCEI introduced many novel concepts to the Indian capital markets such as screen-based nationwide trading, sponsorship of companies, market making and scripless trading. As a measure of success of these efforts, the Exchange today has 115 listings and has assisted in providing capital for enterprises that have gone on to build successful brands for themselves like VIP Advanta, Sonora Tiles & Brilliant mineral water, etc. OTCEI... is the first screen based nationwide stock exchange in India is the first exchange to introduce Market Making in India is the first exchange to introduce Sponsorship of companies in India is the only exchange to allow listing of companies with paid-up below Rs.3 crores is the only exchange to allow companies with less than 3 year track record to tap capital market. has shifted trading from counter receipts to share certificates has introduced Weekly Settlement Cycle allows short selling allows demat trading through NSDL has tied-up with NSCCL for Clearing Need for OTCEI Studies by NASSCOM, Software Technology Parks of India, the venture capital funds and the government's IT Task Force, as well as the rising interest in information technology, pharmaceutical, biotechnology and media shares have repeatedly emphasized the need for a national stock market for innovative and high growth companies. Innovative companies are critical to developing economies like India, which is undergoing a major technological revolution. With their abilities to generate employment opportunities and contribute to the economy, it is essential that these companies not only expand existing operations but also set up new units. The key issue for these companies is raising timely, cost effective and long term capital to sustain their operations and enhance growth. Such companies, particularly those that Ishan Institute of Management & Technology 193
Current scenario of Capital Market in India. have been in operation for a short time, are unable to raise funds through the traditional financing methods, because they have not yet been evaluated by the financial world. Who would find OTCEI helpful: high-technology enterprises companies with high growth potential companies focussed on new product development . entrepreneurs seeking finance for specific business projects
The Indian economy is demonstrating signs of recovery and it is essential that these companies have suitable financing alternatives to fund their growth and maintain competitiveness. OTCEI, with its entry guidelines and eligibility requirements tailored for such innovative and growth oriented companies, is ideally positioned as the preferred route for raising funds through Initial Public Offer (IPOs) or primary issues, in this country. The Exchange has three types of intermediaries called Members, Dealers and Sponsors, who contribute to the Exchange's activities by trading and enabling listing of companies on the Exchange. Members and Dealers may carry out the activities of trading, underwriting, market making and participation in bought out deals, but Dealers cannot sponsor an issue for listing. Sponsors can perform the function of sponsorship of issues, but are not permitted to participate in secondary market activities. Key Information

Bombay Stock Exchange.

Bombay Stock Exchange Limited is the oldest stock exchange in Asia with a rich heritage. Popularly known as "BSE", it was established as "The Native Share & Stock Brokers Association" in 1875. It is the first stock exchange in the country to obtain permanent recognition in 1956 from the Government of India under the Securities Contracts (Regulation) Act, 1956.The Exchange's pivotal and pre-eminent role in the development of the Indian capital market is widely recognized and its index, SENSEX, is tracked worldwide. Earlier an Association of Persons (AOP), the Exchange is now a demutualised and corporatised entity incorporated under the provisions of the Companies Act, 1956, pursuant to the BSE(Corporatisation and Demutualisation) Scheme, 2005 notified by the Securities and Exchange Board of India (SEBI). With demutualisation, the trading rights and ownership rights have been de-linked effectively addressing concerns regarding perceived and real conflicts of interest. The Exchange is professionally managed under the overall direction of the Board of Directors.The Board comprises eminent professionals, representatives of Trading Members and the Managing Director of the Exchange. The Board is inclusive and is designed to benefit from theparticipation of market intermediaries. Ishan Institute of Management & Technology 196
Current scenario of Capital Market in India. In terms of organisation structure, the Board formulates larger policy issues and exercises over-all control. The committees constituted by the Board are broad-based.The day-to-dayoperations of the Exchange are managed by the Managing Director and a management team of professionals. The Exchange has a nation-wide reach with a presence in 417 cities and towns of India. The systems and processes of the Exchange are designed to safeguard market integrity and enhance transparency in operations. During the year 2004-2005, the trading volumes on the Exchange showed robust growth. The Exchange provides an efficient and transparent market for trading in equity, debt instruments and derivatives. The BSE's On Line Trading System (BOLT) is a proprietory system of the Exchange and is BS 7799-2-2002 certified. The surveillance and clearing & settlement functions of the Exchange are ISO 9001:2000 certified. For the premier Stock Exchange that pioneered the stock broking activity in India , 125 years of experience seem to be a proud milestone. A lot has changed since 1875 when 318 persons became members of what today is called "Bombay Stock Exchange Limited" by paying a princely amount of Re1. Since then, the stock market in the country has passed through both good and bad periods. The journey in the 20th century has not been an easy one. Till the decade of eighties, there was no measure or scale that could precisely measure the various ups and downs in the Indian stock market. Bombay Stock Exchange Limited (BSE) in 1986 came out with a Stock Index that subsequently became the barometer of the Indian Stock Market. SENSEX, first compiled in 1986 was calculated on a "Market Capitalization-Weighted" methodology of 30 component stocks representing a sample of large, well-established and financially sound companies. The base year of SENSEX is 1978-79. The index is widely reported in both domestic and international markets through print as well as electronic media. SENSEX is not only scientifically designed but also based on globally accepted construction and review methodology. From September 2003, the SENSEX is calculated on a free-float marke capitalization methodology. The "free-float Market Capitalization-Weighted" methodology is a Ishan Institute of Management & Technology 197
Current scenario of Capital Market in India. widely followed index construction methodology on which majority of global equity benchmarks are based. The growth of equity markets in India has been phenomenal in the decade gone by. Right from early nineties the stock market witnessed heightened activity in terms of various bull and bear runs. More recently, the bourses in India witnessed a similar frenzy in the 'TMT' sectors. The SENSEX captured all these happenings in the most judicial manner. One can identify the booms and bust of the Indian equity market through SENSEX. The launch of SENSEX in 1986 was later followed up in January 1989 by introduction of BSE National Index (Base: 1983-84 = 100). It comprised of 100 stocks listed at five major stock exchanges in India at Mumbai, Calcutta , Delhi , Ahmedabad and Madras . The BSE National Index was renamed as BSE-100 Index from October 14, 1996 and since then it is calculated taking into consideration only the prices of stocks listed at BSE. The Exchange launched dollar-linked version of BSE-100 index i.e. Dollex-100 on May 22, 2006. With a view to provide a better representation of the increased number of companies listed, increased market capitalisation and the new industry groups, the Exchange constructed and launched on 27th May, 1994, two new index series viz., the 'BSE-200' and the 'DOLLEX-200' indices. Since then, BSE has come a long way in attuning itself to the varied needs of investors and market participants. In order to fulfill the need of the market participants for still broader, segmentspecific and sector-specific indices, the Exchange has continuously been increasing the range of its indices. The launch of BSE-200 Index in 1994 was followed by the launch of BSE-500 Index and 5 sectoral indices in 1999. In 2001, BSE launched the BSE-PSU Index, DOLLEX-30 and the country's first free-float based index - the BSE TECk Index. The Exchange shifted all its indices to a free-float methodology (except BSE PSU index) in a pahsed manner. The Exchange also disseminates the Price-Earnings Ratio, the Price to Book Value Ratio and the Dividend Yield Percentage on day-to-day basis of all its major indices. The values of all BSE indices are updated every 15 seconds during the market hours and displayed through the BOLT system, BSE website and news wire agencies. Ishan Institute of Management & Technology 198
Current scenario of Capital Market in India. All BSE-Indices are reviewed periodically by the "Index Committee" of the Exchange. The Committee frames the broad policy guidelines for the development and maintenance of all BSE indices. Department of BSE Indices of the Exchange carries out the day to day maintenance of all indices and conducts research on development of new indices. BSE Ltd places great deal of emphasis on Information Technology to strengthen its functioning and performance. 'Operations & Trading Department' continuously upgrades the hardware, software and networking systems, thus enabling the Exchange to enhance the quality and standard of service provided to its members and other market intermediaries. To facilitate smooth transaction, BSE had replaced its open outcry system with BSE On-line Trading (BOLT) facility in 1995. This totally automated screen based trading in securities was put into practice nation-wide within a record time of just 50 days. The BOLT platform capacity has been enhanced to 40 lakh orders per day by upgrading the hardware. BOLT has been certified by DNV for conforming to BS7799 security standards. With this, BSE is the second stock exchange in the world to have this certification. Exchange has also introduced the world's first centralized exchange based Internet trading system, BSEWEBx.com. The initiative enables investors anywhere in the world to trade on the BSE platform. BSE's website http://www.bseindia.com/provides comprehensive information on the stock market. It is one of the most popular financial websites in India and is regularly visited by financial organizations and other stakeholders for updates. BSE's team of experts and professionals, along with its strategic partners have put into place several critical systems such as Derivatives Trading & Settlement System (DTSS), Electronic Contract Notes (ECN), Unique Client Code registration (UCC), Real time data dissemination system - Datafeed, Integrated Back office System - CDB / IDB, Book Building System (BBS) & Reverse Book Building System (RBBS) etc.
Current scenario of Capital Market in India. BSE also operates one of the largest private networks in India, comprising campus LAN; WAN set up within Mumbai and across some major metros in India and VSAT set up across the country. BSE's Campus LAN covers around 350 member offices across three BSE buildings P.J. Towers, Rotunda and Cama building. BSE WAN setup connects approximately 2000 member offices within Mumbai and some major metros to BSE systems. Leased MLLN circuits from MTNL / BSNL are provided with ISDN / TTML leased circuit backup. Around 300 circuits are of 2Mbps capacity and rest all are of 64Kbps capacity. In year 2000 BSE set up its own VSAT Master Earth Station (HUB), which uses full transponder on INSAT 3B satellite to cater to roughly 2000 locations in over 400 cities across the country. Regional Hubs for local fan out of leased lines within Metros backed by high availability trunk backbone to BSE. The regional technology hubs are commissioned in Ahmedabad, Bangalore, Chandigarh, Chennai, Delhi, Hyderabad, Indore, Jaipur, Kolkatta, Ludhiana, Pune and Rajkot provide cost-effective reliable services to members. The trading and settlement activities of the member-brokers are closely monitored through On-line Real Time System known as BSE Online Surveillance System (BOSS). The system enables the Exchange to detect market abuses at a nascent stage, improve the risk management system and strengthen the self-regulatory mechanisms. Currently, BSE is in the process of evolving an integrated system for online surveillance of Cash and Derivatives Segment through BSE Online Surveillance System - Integrated (BOSS - i). BSE uses higher end fault tolerant systems for its trading and related functionalities. It uses Integrity Non-stop S88000 systems for its online trading systems (BOLT). The systems have been designed to deliver the best performance without compromising on key factors of availability, scalability, ROI and TCO.

Following are the main BSE Indexes

BSE PSU Index BSE TECK Index BSE Mid Cap & Small Cap Index BSE BANKX BSE 100 Index BSE 200 Index BSE 500 Index How do S&P CNX Nifty and the `BSE sensitive index compare? Every technical reason favours the S&P CNX Nifty. S&P CNX Nifty is a more diversified index, accurately reflecting overall market conditions. The BSE index is more vulnerable to movements of individual stocks. The reward-to-risk ratio of S&P CNX Nifty is higher (5.74 as compared with 5.12), making it a more attractive portfolio both indices offer similar returns, but S&P CNX Nifty costs less risk. Ishan Institute of Management & Technology 201
Current scenario of Capital Market in India. S&P CNX Nifty is a more liquid index. Trades on the S&P CNX Nifty suffer lower market impact cost. Several important issues lead back to the fact that the S&P CNX Nifty is calculated using NSE prices while the `BSE sensitive index is calculated using BSE prices. S&P CNX Nifty is calculated from a more liquid market, which features the safety of novation at the clearing corporation. Users of the BSE index would be forced to trade on BSE, a less liquid exchange where there is settlement risk owing to the lack of novation and the lack of a clearing corporation. S&P CNX Nifty has fully articulated and professionally implemented rules governing index revision, corporate actions, etc. These rules are carefully thought out, under Indian conditions, to dovetail with operational problems of index funds and index arbitrageurs. Many of the BSE procedures are adhoc and undocumented, and do not reflect an awareness of modern applications of an index. S&P CNX Nifty is calculated using modern computer systems with great care about data accuracy. S&P CNX Nifty is more likely to rapidly benefit from a liquid index futures market. (The BSE has long campaigned against the introduction of index futures in India.) The hedging effectiveness for randomly selected portfolios in India is better using the S&P CNX Nifty. S&P CNX Nifty is relatively free of manipulation, for three reasons: (a) the index levels are calculated from the more liquid exchange with better surveillance procedures (it is easier for a manipulator to move prices at BSE), (b) S&P CNX Nifty has a larger market Capitalization so the consequence (upon the index) of a given move in an individual stock price is smaller and (c) S&P CNX Nifty calculation intrinsically requires liquidity in proportion to market Capitalization, thus avoiding weak links which a manipulator can attack.
Current scenario of Capital Market in India. Users of the S&P CNX Nifty benefit from the research that is possible owing to the long timeseries available: both S&P CNX Nifty and S&P CNX Nifty TR series are observed from July 1990 onwards. Owing to the large changes in the `BSE sensitive index in 1996, the comparable series available is only two years old, and no TR index is available. S&P CNX Nifty is backed by solid economic research and three most respected institutions: NSE, CRISIL and S&P.

Introduction
Traditionally, indexes have been used as information sources. By looking at an index we know how the market is faring. This information aspect also figures in myriad applications of stock market indexes in economic research. This is particularly valuable when an index reflects highly uptodate information (a central issue which is discussed in detail ahead) and the portfolio of an investor contains illiquid securities - in this case, the index is a lead indicator of how the overall portfolio will fare. Ishan Institute of Management & Technology 204
Current scenario of Capital Market in India. In recent years, indexes have come to the fore owing to direct applications in finance, in the form of index funds and index derivatives. Index funds are funds which passively `invest in the index'. Index derivatives allow people to cheaply alter their risk exposure to an index (this is called hedging) and to implement forecasts about index movements (this is called speculation). Hedging using index derivatives has become a central part of risk management in the modern economy. These applications are now a multi-trillion dollar industry worldwide, and they are critically linked up to market indexes. Finally, indexes serve as a benchmark for measuring the performance of fund managers. An allequity fund should obtain returns like the overall stock market index. A 50:50 debt:equity fund should obtain returns close to those obtained by an investment of 50% in the index and 50% in fixed income. A well-specified relationship between an investor and a fund manager should explicitly define the benchmark against which the fund manager will be compared, and in what fashion. The most important type of market index is the broad-market index. In most countries, a single major index dominates benchmarking, index funds, index derivatives and research applications. In addition, more specialised indexes often find interesting applications. In India, we have seen situations where a dedicated industry fund uses an industry index as a benchmark. In India, where clear categories of ownership groups exist, it becomes interesting to examine the performance of classes of companies sorted by ownership group.
SENSEX - THE BAROMETER OF INDIAN CAPITAL MARKETS For the premier Stock Exchange that pioneered the stock broking activity in India, 128 years of experience seems to be a proud milestone. A lot has changed since 1875 when 318 persons became members of what today is called "The Stock Exchange, Mumbai" by paying a princely amount of Re1. Since then, the country's capital markets have passed through both good and bad periods. The journey in the 20th century has not been an easy one. Till the decade of eighties, there was no scale Ishan Institute of Management & Technology 205
Current scenario of Capital Market in India. to measure the ups and downs in the Indian stock market. The Stock Exchange, Mumbai (BSE) in 1986 came out with a stock index that subsequently became the barometer of the Indian stock market. SENSEX is not only scientifically designed but also based on globally accepted construction and review methodology. First compiled in 1986, SENSEX is a basket of 30 constituent stocks representing a sample of large, liquid and representative companies. The base year of SENSEX is 1978-79 and the base value is 100. The index is widely reported in both domestic and international markets through print as well as electronic media. The Index was initially calculated based on the "Full Market Capitalization" methodology but was shifted to the free-float methodology with effect from September 1, 2003. The "Free-float Market Capitalization" methodology of index construction is regarded as an industry best practice globally. All major index providers like MSCI, FTSE, STOXX, S&P and Dow Jones use the Freefloat methodology. Due to is wide acceptance amongst the Indian investors; SENSEX is regarded to be the pulse of the Indian stock market. As the oldest index in the country, it provides the time series data over a fairly long period of time (From 1979 onwards). Small wonder, the SENSEX has over the years become one of the most prominent brands in the country. The growth of equity markets in India has been phenomenal in the decade gone by. Right from early nineties the stock market witnessed heightened activity in terms of various bull and bear runs. The SENSEX captured all these events in the most judicial manner. One can identify the booms and busts of the Indian stock market through SENSEX.
SENSEX Calculation Methodology

SENSEX is calculated using the "Free-float Market Capitalization" methodology. As per this methodology, the level of index at any point of time reflects the Free-float market value of 30 component stocks relative to a base period. The market capitalization of a company is determined by multiplying the price of its stock by the number of shares issued by the company. This market Ishan Institute of Management & Technology 206
Current scenario of Capital Market in India. capitalization is further multiplied by the free-float factor to determine the free-float market capitalization. The base period of SENSEX is 1978-79 and the base value is 100 index points. This is often indicated by the notation 1978-79=100. The calculation of SENSEX involves dividing the Freefloat market capitalization of 30 companies in the Index by a number called the Index Divisor. The Divisor is the only link to the original base period value of the SENSEX. It keeps the Index comparable over time and is the adjustment point for all Index adjustments arising out of corporate actions, replacement of scrips etc. During market hours, prices of the index scrips, at which latest trades are executed, are used by the trading system to calculate SENSEX every 15 seconds and disseminated in real time. Dollex-30 BSE also calculates a dollar-linked version of SENSEX and historical values of this index are available since its inception.
Understanding Free-float Methodology

Concept: Free-float Methodology refers to an index construction methodology that takes into consideration only the free-float market capitalization of a company for the purpose of index calculation and assigning weight to stocks in Index. Free-float market capitalization is defined as that proportion of total shares issued by the company that are readily available for trading in the market. It generally excludes promoters' holding, government holding, strategic holding and other locked-in shares that will not come to the market for trading in the normal course. In other words, the market capitalization of each company in a Free-float index is reduced to the extent of its readily available shares in the market. In India, BSE pioneered the concept of Free-float by launching BSE TECk in July 2001 and BANKEX in June 2003. While BSE TECk Index is a TMT benchmark, BANKEX is positioned as Ishan Institute of Management & Technology 207
Current scenario of Capital Market in India. a benchmark for the banking sector stocks. SENSEX becomes the third index in India to be based on the globally accepted Free-float Methodology. Major advantages of Free-float Methodology:
A Free-float index reflects the market trends more rationally as it takes into consideration only those shares that are available for trading in the market. Free-float Methodology makes the index more broad-based by reducing the concentration of top few companies in Index. For example, the concentration of top five companies in SENSEX has fallen under the free-float scenario thereby making the SENSEX more diversified and broad-based.
A Free-float index aids both active and passive investing styles. It aids active managers by enabling them to benchmark their fund returns vis--vis an investable index. This enables an apple-to-apple comparison thereby facilitating better evaluation of performance of active managers. Being a perfectly replicable portfolio of stocks, a Free-float adjusted index is best suited for the passive managers as it enables them to track the index with the least tracking error.
Free-float Methodology improves index flexibility in terms of including any stock from the universe of listed stocks. This improves market coverage and sector coverage of the index. For example, under a Full-market capitalization methodology, companies with large market capitalization and low free-float cannot generally be included in the Index because they tend to distort the index by having an undue influence on the index movement. However, under the Free-float Methodology, since only the free-float market capitalization of each company is considered for index calculation, it becomes possible to include such closely held companies in the index while at the same time preventing their undue influence on the index movement.
Globally, the Free-float Methodology of index construction is considered to be an industry best practice and all major index providers like MSCI, FTSE, S&P and STOXX have adopted the same. MSCI, a leading global index provider, shifted all its indices to the Freefloat Methodology in 2002. The MSCI India Standard Index, which is followed by Foreign Institutional Investors (FIIs) to track Indian equities, is also based on the Free-float Ishan Institute of Management & Technology 208
Current scenario of Capital Market in India. Methodology. NASDAQ-100, the underlying index to the famous Exchange Traded Fund (ETF) - QQQ is based on the Free-float Methodology.
Definition of Free-float:
Share holdings held by investors that would not, in the normal course come into the open market for trading are treated as 'Controlling/ Strategic Holdings' and hence not included in free-float. In specific, the following categories of holding are generally excluded from the definition of Freefloat:

Holdings by founders/directors/ acquirers which has control element Holdings by persons/ bodies with "Controlling Interest" Government holding as promoter/acquirer Holdings through the FDI Route Strategic stakes by private corporate bodies/ individuals Equity held by associate/group companies (cross-holdings) Equity held by Employee Welfare Trusts Locked-in shares and shares which would not be sold in the open market in normal course.
The remaining shareholders would fall under the Free-float category. Determining Free-float factors of companies:
BSE has designed a Free-float format, which is filled and submitted by all index companies on a quarterly basis with the Exchange.The Exchange determines the Free-float factor for each company based on the detailed information submitted by the companies in the prescribed format. Free-float factor is a multiple with which the total market capitalization of a company is adjusted to arrive at the Free-float market capitalization. Once the Free-float of a company is determined, it is rounded-off to the higher multiple of 5 and each company is categorized into one of the 20 bands given below. A Free-float factor of say 0.55 means that only 55% of the market capitalization of the company will be considered for index calculation.
Free-float Bands:

% Free-Float >0 5% >5 10% >10 15% >15 20% >20 25% >25 30% >30 35% >35 40% >40 45% >45 50% Index Closure Algorithm Free-Float Factor 0.05 0.10 0.15 0.20 0.25 0.30 0.35 0.40 0.45 0.50 % Free-Float >50 55% >55 60% >60 65% >65 70% >70 75% >75 80% >80 85% >85 90% >90 95% >95 100% Free-Float Factor 0.55 0.60 0.65 0.70 0.75 0.80 0.85 0.90 0.95 1.00
The closing SENSEX on any trading day is computed taking the weighted average of all the trades on SENSEX constituents in the last 30 minutes of trading session. If a SENSEX constituent has not traded in the last 30 minutes, the last traded price is taken for computation of the Index closure. If a SENSEX constituent has not traded at all in a day, then its last day's closing price is taken for computation of Index closure. The use of Index Closure Algorithm prevents any intentional manipulation of the closing index value. Maintenance of SENSEX One of the important aspects of maintaining continuity with the past is to update the base year average. The base year value adjustment ensures that replacement of stocks in Index, additional issue of capital and other corporate announcements like 'rights issue' etc. do not destroy the historical value of the index. The beauty of maintenance lies in the fact that adjustments for corporate actions in the Index should not per se affect the index values. The Index Cell of the exchange does the day-to-day maintenance of the index within the broad index policy framework set by the Index Committee. The Index Cell ensures that SENSEX and all the other BSE indices maintain their benchmark properties by striking a delicate balance between frequent replacements in index and maintaining its historical continuity. The Index Committee of the Exchange comprises of experts on capital markets from all major market segments. They include Academicians, Fund-managers from leading Mutual Funds, Finance-Journalists, Market Participants, Independent Governing Board members, and Exchange administration. Ishan Institute of Management & Technology 210
Current scenario of Capital Market in India. On-Line Computation of the Index: During market hours, prices of the index scrips, at which trades are executed, are automatically used by the trading computer to calculate the SENSEX every 15 seconds and continuously updated on all trading workstations connected to the BSE trading computer in real time. Adjustment for Bonus, Rights and Newly issued Capital: The arithmetic calculation involved in calculating SENSEX is simple, but problem arises when one of the component stocks pays a bonus or issues rights shares. If no adjustments were made, a discontinuity would arise between the current value of the index and its previous value despite the non-occurrence of any economic activity of substance. At the Index Cell of the Exchange, the base value is adjusted, which is used to alter market capitalization of the component stocks to arrive at the SENSEX value. The Index Cell of the Exchange keeps a close watch on the events that might affect the index on a regular basis and carries out daily maintenance of all the 14 Indices.
Adjustments for Rights Issues:
When a company, included in the compilation of the index, issues right shares, the free-float market capitalisation of that company is increased by the number of additional shares issued based on the theoretical (ex-right) price. An offsetting or proportionate adjustment is then made to the Base Market Capitalisation (see 'Base Market Capitalisation Adjustment' below).
Adjustments for Bonus Issue:
When a company, included in the compilation of the index, issues bonus shares, the market capitalisation of that company does not undergo any change. Therefore, there is no change in the Base Market Capitalisation, only the 'number of shares' in the formula is updated.
Other Issues:
Current scenario of Capital Market in India. Base Market Capitalisation Adjustment is required when new shares are issued by way of conversion of debentures, mergers, spin-offs etc. or when equity is reduced by way of buy-back of shares, corporate restructuring etc.
Base Market Capitalization Adjustment:
The formula for adjusting the Base Market Capitalisation is as follows:

New Market Capitalisation New Base Market Capitalisation = Old Base Market Capitalisation x --------------------------------------Old Market Capitalisation
To illustrate, suppose a company issues right shares which increases the market capitalisation of the shares of that company by say, Rs.100 crores. The existing Base Market Capitalisation (Old Base Market Capitalisation), say, is Rs.2450 crores and the aggregate market capitalisation of all the shares included in the index before the right issue is made is, say Rs.4781 crores. The "New Base Market Capitalisation " will then be:
2450 x (4781+100) -------------------------4781
= Rs.2501.24 crores
This figure of 2501.24 will be used as the Base Market Capitalization for calculating the index number from then onwards till the next base change becomes necessary.
SENSEX - Scrip selection criteria:
The general guidelines for selection of constituents in SENSEX are as follows: 1. Listed History:The scrip should have a listing history of at least 3 months at BSE. Exception may be considered if full market capitalisation of a newly listed company ranks among top 10 in the list of BSE universe. In case, a company is listed on account of merger/ demerger/ amalgamation, minimum listing history would not be required. 2. Trading Frequency:The scrip should have been traded on each and every trading day in the last three months. Exceptions can be made for extreme reasons like scrip suspension etc. Ishan Institute of Management & Technology 212
Current scenario of Capital Market in India. 3. Final Rank:The scrip should figure in the top 100 companies listed by final rank. The final rank is arrived at by assigning 75% weightage to the rank on the basis of three-month average full market capitalisation and 25% weightage to the liquidity rank based on threemonth average daily turnover & three-month average impact cost. 4. Market Capitalization Weightage: The weightage of each scrip in SENSEX based on three-month average free-float market capitalisation should be at least 0.5% of the Index. 5. Industry Representation:Scrip selection would generally take into account a balanced representation of the listed companies in the universe of BSE. 6. Track Record: In the opinion of the Committee, the company should have an acceptable track record.
Index Review Frequency: The Index Committee meets every quarter to discuss index related issues. In case of a revision in the Index constituents, the announcement of the incoming and outgoing scrip is made six weeks in advance of the actual implementation of the revision of the Index.

Factors responsible for the fluctuation of Sensex and Nifty.

Think of a liquid stock as a good thermometer, one which gives accurate data about the true price of the stock, because it trades actively with a tight spread. The prices observed for an illiquid stock are like readings from a low quality thermometer, which reports noisy data about the phenomenon of interest (the true price of the security). We try to find the fifty best thermometers in the country and average their values to make the S&P CNX Nifty. As time passes, better thermometers become available (in the form of large, liquid stocks that are not in the S&P CNX Nifty). We would like that S&P CNX Nifty always uses the best thermometers possible. So we remove the weakest thermometer from inside the S&P CNX Nifty and accept the new stock into it. The world changes, so the index should change. Yet, the change should not be sudden - for that would disrupt the character of the index. In 1996, after a decade of near-silence, the BSE removed 14 out of 30 stocks in their `sensitive' index. This completely changed the character of the index - older data for this index is not comparable with new data. Such sudden changes should be avoided. They serve to illustrate the proverb those who make peaceful change difficult make violent change inevitable. S&P CNX Nifty believes in steady, peaceful changes. S&P CNX Nifty uses clear, publicly documented rules for index revision. These rules are applied regularly, to obtain changes to the index set.

IDBI was once not listed; SBI was once illiquid; Infosys was once an obscure software startup. The world changes, and one by one, these stocks have come into the S&P CNX Nifty. Each change in the S&P CNX Nifty is small, so the continuity of the index is maintained. Yet, at all times, S&P CNX Nifty represents the 50 most important liquid stocks in the country, the best thermometers to build an index out of. There are mathematical formulas which ensure that yesterday's value and today's are comparable, even if a change in composition takes place in-between. Think of an index as a portfolio. The composition of the portfolio changes, but it is still meaningful to keep measuring the overnight returns on the portfolio from day to day. These returns, cumulated up, are the index level. There are no speculators on the internal committee of IISL which manages the index revisions. Further, there are objective, publicly defined rules which determine when stocks come in and go out of the index. There isn't much room for personal judgement here. Every stock price moves for two possible reasons: news about the company (e.g. a product launch, or the closure of a factory, etc.) or news about the country (e.g. nuclear bombs, or a budget announcement, etc.). The job of an index is to purely capture the second part, the movements of the stock market as a whole (i.e. news about the country). This is achieved by averaging. Each stock contains a mixture of these two elements - stock news and index news. When we take an average of returns on many stocks, the individual stock news tends to cancel out. On any one day, there would be good stock-specific news for a few companies and bad stock-specific news for others. In a good index, these will cancel out, and the only thing left will be news that is common to all stocks. That is what the index will capture. They reflect the changing expectations of the stock market about future dividends of India's corporate sector. When the index goes up, it is because the stock market thinks that the prospective dividends in the future will be better than previously thought. When prospects of dividends in the future become pessimistic, the index drops. The ideal index gives us instant-to-instant readings about how the stock market perceives the future of India's corporate sector.

Role of RBI and SEBI

Role of RBI. Modern day central banking extends far beyond the domain of traditional functions such as currency management, banker to Government and promoting financial soundness. These reorientations have been the natural corollary of pursuing monetary policy measures that are focused on definitive, well-defined and quantifiable objectives. Central banks in emerging economies differ from their counterparts of developed countries in several ways. In some developed countries, central banks are vested only with the conduct of monetary policy. In most emerging countries, central banks, besides monetary policy, also shoulder the responsibilities of debt management, and regulation/supervision of banks and financial institutions. Even in regard to the conduct of monetary policy, central banks in emerging Ishan Institute of Management & Technology 220
Current scenario of Capital Market in India. economies have to contend with several objectives, and distinct trade-offs as compared with some developed countries which pursue a single objective of price stability. While pursuing multiple objectives, and managing complex trade-offs, central banks in emerging countries assume the responsibility of looking after the interests of several agents including depositors, intermediaries, government, business, and external trade. In regard to choice of instruments, given the level of market development, and multiple objectives, emerging countries cannot entirely rely on single instrument such as interest rates. Rather, central banks in emerging countries prefer a judicious mix of interest rates, cash reserves, and other instruments. The most striking feature of central banking in emerging countries pertains to their critical role in development of financial markets and active involvement in the institution building process. Institution Building In the Indian context, the Reserve Bank of India (RBI), in consultation with the Government, has played a major role in institution building since independence. Efforts in this direction encompass RBIs contribution to development of commercial banking, development finance institutions in the areas of agriculture and industry, and specialised institutions for development of financial markets. After initiation of the economic reforms of the early 1990s, the role of RBI in the area of developing financial markets particularly the government securities, money markets and payment and settlement systems has come to the fore. Moreover, in a global environment, with increasing integration of the international economy, the RBIs role as the regulator and supervisor of commercial banks and financial institutions has assumed a central place in promoting transparency and credibility of institutions and monetary and financial policies. Monetary Policy Most central bankers presently enjoy independence in choosing their policy instrument and have used it to rely on setting short-term interest rates. As a logical offshoot, many central banks in emerging markets are giving more exposures to pursuing price stability as one of the main objectives of monetary policy. In the RBI, there is a Financial Markets Committee (FMC), which meets daily before the opening of the markets and at times more frequently, when the situation Ishan Institute of Management & Technology 221
Current scenario of Capital Market in India. warrants. The FMC reviews the liquidity and interest rate situation in financial markets and advises top management on the course of action that would be required by RBI during the day. This institutionalised framework helps the RBI to take an integrated view on all-important decisions having an impact on financial markets. Economists have long debated as to what should be the objective(s) of monetary policy. In most developed countries, monetary stability, defined as the price stability, constitutes the dominant objective of monetary policy. In emerging economies, central banks have to contend with several concerns: price stability, sustained growth, financial systems stability, stable exchange rate, and operating objectives of liquidity management. The animated discussion on central bank objectives ranges broadly between single objective and multiple objectives. Such discussion entails a generic analysis of advantages and disadvantages of single or multiple objectives, and the nature, and scope of central banking organisation, which differs across the country groups of developed and emerging countries due to significant difference in socio-economic-technological-institutional environment. Adoption of a single objective of monetary policy by central banks is based on the arguments that (i) monetary policy should concentrate its instruments on one objective, free from any policy tradeoff, thereby strengthening the implementation of monetary policy; (ii) a single objective promotes transparency, accountability and independence of monetary policy; (iii) a single objective is more realistic in a deregulated and globalised economic and financial system; and (iv) it is easier to observe the channels of transmission, and therefore, easier to determine the right instruments. Since a central banks monetary policy actions could involve several implications for the economy as a whole, the counterarguments against a single objective derive from the fact that (i) economic objectives should be achieved simultaneously (in harmony), and a single objective may disrupt that harmony; (ii) monetary policy by itself may not be able to bring down inflation further and other wings of policy have to be deployed. The case for multiple objectives for central banks entails co-ordination of a range of policies and thus, a spectrum of objectives. The principal reason as to why central banks in emerging economies have to contend with multiple objectives, or at least dual objectives of price stability Ishan Institute of Management & Technology 222
Current scenario of Capital Market in India. and economic growth derives from the concerns of socio-economic-political systems. James Tobin, a Nobel laureate economist, argued that since central banks form an integral part of government, they cannot dissociate from the major objectives of the society, which includes sustained economic growth and price stability. William Poole, a revered central banker viewed that economic growth is a citizens objective and central bankers too are citizens. Currency management is one of the most important traditional function of central banks in most countries. Central banks serve as a service provider to issue and distribute currency notes and coins. In most developed countries, high degree of homogeneity in the society as reflected in the culture, language, tastes and preferences of the public and the efficient distribution of income could induce a homogenous pattern of currency demand and thus, facilitate to achieve better currency management as compared with that of developing countries. In developing countries, significant diversity in socio-economic development across regions induce completely different currency preference of the public across regions, and across demographic segments, thus, entailing dynamic and complex currency management tasks for central bankers. What is noteworthy is the way in which technology has been harnessed to bring about improvement in currency management. The RBI performs the role of currency management with the objectives of ensuring adequate availability of coins and notes and maintaining the quality of notes in circulation. This is done through its 18 Regional issue offices/sub offices and a wide network of currency chests, repositories and small coin depots spread across the country. In pursuance of the Clean Note Policy, efforts are being made to improve the quality of notes in circulation. In most emerging markets including India, central banks manage Government debts. Quite apart from the need to decide on issues such as the kind of auctioning, the types of securities to be auctioned and the maturity profile of the securities, there remains the issue of the extent of support that the central bank and commercial banks should extend to the Government borrowing programme. This is important from not only the point of view of deepening the Government securities markets, but also in terms of the flow and cost of credit to the commercial sector. As adviser to Government, central bankers need to interact intimately with the Government on fiscal policy matters and provide a unified and coherent signal to the market on the macro policy stance. In recent years, central banks have become pro-active in the area of structural reforms. Ishan Institute of Management & Technology 223
Current scenario of Capital Market in India. The Indian case provides an excellent testimony towards this point. The strategy of financial reforms was worked out in close coordination with the Government, and undertaken in appropriate sequential steps and synchronised with real sector reforms. This was all the more relevant in the Indian scenario where the Government has a significant stake in the banking system and consequently, any disruption in the financial structure could have significant budgetary implications. The RBI has undertaken wide-ranging reforms to deepen and widen the financial markets money market, Government securities market and foreign exchange market. These markets have become vibrant and competitive. Central bankers, in the present era, rely on a combination of policy measures in their day-to-day operations. They undertake combinations of actions primarily to provide signals about their policy stance to market participants. Reforms of the tools of monetary policy have, therefore, gained prominence. Such reforms have been made possible by the growing emphasis on indirect instruments of monetary control and the de-emphasis on direct instruments of policy. Open market operations, in such a milieu, have grown in importance. Interest rate flexibility is another tool. A major instrument of statutory preemption, such as the Cash Reserve Ratio has been progressively de-emphasised and instead, short-term instruments, such as the Repo Rate and in the medium-term, instruments such as Bank Rate have become important. Likewise, in several instances, the Statutory Liquidity Ratio (SLR), an erstwhile important prudential measure, has increasingly been scaled down. The idea inherent in these transformations in the approach to monetary policy is to provide banks with maximum freedom in their portfolio choice, without losing sight of the risks in asset accretion, and to provide opportunity to ensure that their resource allocation is optimal. Given the concerns of an emerging economy, certain portion of banks resources are often prescribed to be allotted under the priority sector norms; but in this case as well, the range of activities covered under priority sector has been expanded to provide greater choice to banks. And let us not forget the central banks authority and power of moral suasion which can act as a supervisory and regulatory force, even when no explicit oversight of the financial system is in place. Liquidity determination is the key to the efficiency of the actions of the monetary authorities. As the economy increasinglyopens up, the interactions between domestic and external markets are expected to impinge on liquidity as much as the growth impulses from within the economy. Ishan Institute of Management & Technology 224
Current scenario of Capital Market in India. Liquidity, however, is not static, in view of the speed of transactions and settlements and the sharp increase in financial innovations. Since liquidity is a function of both domestic monetary policies as much as external sector policies and debt management strategy, modern day central bankers are confronted with the enviable task of balancing a tightrope walk to ensure that the economy remains on track. As bankers to banks, central bankers tend to exercise considerable discretion and rarely go by straightjacket rule-based methods. While the lender-of-the-last resort function of the central banks continues to be important, in addition, the central bank provides access to refinance facilities and a whole host of services, as in the matter of payments and settlement, funds transfer, settling of government securities through the Negotiated dealing System (NDS) and the like. Another area where central bankers of emerging countries have assumed new responsibilities pertains to managing the economy in response to external developments in the context of globalisation. Deputy Governor Dr. Rakesh Mohan has rightly pointed out that globalisation has offered several benefits as well as a host of challenges. In an increasingly global environment, countries have to adapt to greater internationalisation of economic policies. In this regard, central bankers in emerging countries have to be alert to international developments and acquire skills in the areas of international banking, international finance and economics, international regulations and international relations in order to function effectively while managing the monetary and financial conditions of the economy. In the area of banking soundness, central banks in emerging markets have become major initiators of activity. Financial supervision, whether on-site or off-site, has assumed prominence in the face of market imperfections and ensuring depositor protection. It is widely recognised that the Asian crisis was , to a large extent, the outcome of lax supervisory standards pursued in these crisisridden economies. The soundness of banks and other non-bank entities depends not only on the operation of these entities, but also the efficacy of the supervisory process. In this context, the Core Principles , enunciated by the BIS in 1997, have quickly become a benchmark and we in the RBI are, by now, compliant with most of these Principles. In view of the growing risks that banking entails and the scarcity of supervisory resources, many central banks are increasingly moving towards a risk-based approach to supervision in order to ensure optimum utilisation of Ishan Institute of Management & Technology 225
Current scenario of Capital Market in India. supervisory resources. Following recent advancements, central banks have developed macroprudential indicators in order to monitor the health of financial entities within the overall economic environment in which they operate. High quality regulation and supervision, which contribute directly to improvements in operating efficiency, are beneficial for emerging countries since efficiency in the allocation of resources to most productive sectors cannot be achieved and sustained without achieving operating efficiency. Regulation and supervision of institutions is, however, not a simple task especially in the Indian context as it involves a large network of banks and other financial institutions and their large number of branches spread over the entire country. Banks and their branches too involve a wide network of inter-action with different market segments owing to diversified portfolios in a deregulated environment. In this context, central bankers have to be highly skilled, vibrant and most dynamic in order to be effective in regulation and supervision. In several countries, central banks assume a pivotal place in the payments and settlements system. As financial transactions become increasingly complex, there arises the need to harness financial markets to fully exploit the advances in information technology and communications networking. Some important research studies show that a relatively large involvement of the central bank in the financial system contributes to financial development. For emerging countries, the central bank involvement in the payment system enhances financial development. There is a considered view that an efficient payment and settlement system contributes to operating and allocation efficiencies of the financial system and thus, overall economic growth. Payments and settlement systems in emerging countries involve several features, which are distinct from that of developed countries. One of the guiding principles followed by RBI in the reforms in the payment and settlement systems has been the need to provide for a safe, secure and efficient systems. RBI has identified the Systemically Important Financial Intermediaries (SIFI), which have the propensity for systemic risks. The introduction of screen based trading in Government securities following the delivery versus payment model in the form of Negotiated Dealing System (NDS) was a milestone in this regard. The commencement of foreign exchange clearing by the Clearing Corporation of India Ltd. aimed at net settlement of the foreign exchange transactions is a major step forward, which has Ishan Institute of Management & Technology 226
Current scenario of Capital Market in India. brought about more efficiency and safety. The RBI has also embarked upon the introduction of a Real Time Gross Settlement (RTGS) System for settlement of inter-bank and customer related funds transfers on a real time mode. Going beyond technological upgradation, the issue also remains of formulating an appropriate legal framework, in which transactions could take place in a safe, sound and secured manner. The growth of e-transactions and digital signatures is a case in point. As you would be aware, the challenges to central bankers in the present day are manifold and I venture to list out a few for this discerning audience. First, the challenge of financial sector liberalisation. While competitive financial markets no doubt aid in efficient allocation of resources, failure or even disruptions in one segment of the financial sector can have serious contagion effects throughout the rest of the economy. Thus , central bankers need to be vigilant and alert to domestic and external developments. There also remains the challenge of ensuring soundness of financial institutions. The supervision of the financial system is getting increasingly complicated with the growth of one-stop-banking and conglomerates as well as off-shore financial activities operating in multiple segments of the financial markets, leading to blurring of distinction among the various segments themselves. Repeated financial crises across the world have provided graphic evidence of the fact that financial disruptions can engender serious output costs. In this context, the need for effective supervision can hardly be underscored. In conclusion, central banking is passing through challenging yet exciting times. While developments within the country charter its transformation, the experience of other countries provides invaluable lessons in the approach to promote growth, whilst maintaining price stability. All in all, the life of a central banker is one of anonymity, staid and boring. It is only in moments when the going is tough that central bankers emerge from isolation and lean against the wind to battle splenetic insurmountable odds. Central bankers choose their profession because they are driven by a commitment to public service, which they hold dearer to themselves irrespective of financial remuneration. The conduct of central banking inherently involves the ultimate good of the society. An inappropriate choice of instruments or targets can lead to large losses of Ishan Institute of Management & Technology 227
Current scenario of Capital Market in India. macroeconomic well-being. Ultimately, all citizens are stake holders in the central bank. Former Governor, Dr. Bimal Jalan rightly referred to central banks as the publics own institutions. Every central banker is conscious of operating at the apex of the financial system and at the centre of the macro-economic management, continuously balancing risks against every policy action. In this sense, a central banker has to possess certain unique qualities integrity and professionalism of the highest order, finely honed analytical skills, the capability to take decisions under difficult circumstances, a thorough knowledge of the manner in which the economy functions, adaptability and a dynamism with which to respond to a life of continuous change and challenge. What is more they have to avoid partisanship and command public support. Together, these attributes distinguish a central banker as a leader and manager of people, situations and money, always dedicated to service to the nation. No wonder that central bankers are called priests at the temple of money.
Role of SEBI
The SEBI is the regulatory authority established under Section 3 of SEBI Act 1992 to protect the interests of the investors in securities and to promote the development of, and to regulate, the securities market and for matters connected therewith and incidental thereto.

PROBLEMS OF PRIMARY AND SECONDARY MARKET
IT IS ten years since the Securities and Exchange Board of India (SEBI) started to put in place the regulatory framework for the capital market. And investors have certainly benefited from the availability of more information and a contemporary secondary market structure. SEBI began to put in place regulations a decade ago, starting with its Guidelines for Disclosure and Investor Protection (primary markets) in 1992. A fairly broad-based regulatory framework is now in place, though, going forward, SEBI has to make the market a friendlier place for investors by plugging the gaps in its performance, especially in the following areas: Enhancing disclosures Despite a plethora of disclosure requirements, there are still key areas where investors get precious little information of value. This mainly relates to big-ticket corporate action, such as mergers, demergers, acquisitions, asset sell-offs, takeovers and inter-corporate investments. In each of these areas, no doubt, the minimum information requiredunder the Companies Act is made available. The disclosure level varies from one instance to another, though a lot of information is made available on the financials and the synergies of a merger. But the manner in which the swap ratio is fixed and what the management thinks of the same is largely taken for granted. Ishan Institute of Management & Technology 252
Current scenario of Capital Market in India. The valuation of the two companies and the swap ratio are key aspects in any merger. No doubt, valuation reports are made available for inspection, but access is not easy for all investors. A comprehensive and mandated list of disclosures, like the one that accompanies an IPO or a rights offer, should be made available to all shareholders. Aspects such as risks from these actions, mode of deployment of resources, the benefits, reasons for such action and management perception of the issues involved, can form part of such a disclosure list. SEBI has much to do to make its existing disclosure requirements work better. This can be done only by making all disclosures available freely to every one. Take, for instance, mutual funds. Trustee and asset management companies are required to file monthly/quarterly reports with SEBI. These must be available on the Internet. Only public scrutiny and comment can improve the level of disclosures mandated by SEBI. While this is not a job that SEBI can do on its own, due partly to resource constraints and also because of the varying types of expertise needed, it has made a small beginning with its Web site http://www.edifar.nic.in/ and must make sure as much information as possible is pumped in through this Web site. Quality of decisions The effectiveness of any regulatory body is judged by the quality of implementation, in general, and the rate of convictions achieved in cases where there are violations. What is worrying is the poor rate of conviction in major cases. Virtually every SEBI decision involving major cases such as Sterlite, BPL, Videocon, Anand Rathi and Associates and Hindustan Lever has been overturned by the appeals process (or the Securities Appellate Tribunal). This hardly sends the right signals about SEBI's penal actions when regulations are violated. There is clearly something seriously amiss if the SAT can overturn SEBI orders by pointing to lacunae on
Current scenario of Capital Market in India. almost every possible ground ranging from the merely technical aspects to substantive issues involving the regulator's subjective judgment. This is what happened in the Sterlite, BPL and Videocon cases (they were barred from capital market access for their role in price manipulation in 1998). . Quite clearly, the quality of SEBI's investigative work has to improve considerably so that penal actions stick. Take a larger view There are quite a few instances where shareholders have suffered due to specific corporate actions. Whenever an issue of this kind has come up, , SEBI has generally shied away from taking up the cudgels (unless nudged by some extraneous pressure) on behalf of the investors to ensure that they get a fair deal. In some of the global development-triggered `changes in control', SEBI's actions have been mixed . In some cases, such as Castrol, it has acted with alacrity and ordered open offers. But in quite a few others, its stance has virtually enabled elaborate structures to be created that helped avoid open offers or its actions have come rather late in the day Color Chem-Clariant, for example imposing unfair costs on acquirers and shareholders. There have been a quite a few decisions on whether open offers are triggered by global developments or not, both by SEBI and/or by SAT. But no parameters have been laid down so far and eachissue is handled on a case-by-case basis. When it comes todomestic acquisitions, SEBI's interpretation of `change in control' is questionable. When Gujarat Ambuja picked up the entire 14.4 per cent of the Tatas in ACC, it was clear that effective control had passed. But SEBI offered no view and, only when directed by the court, took the stance that there was `no change in control' on technical grounds. In such situations, SEBI has to come out and clearly say why it thinks there is change in control or not. The absence of a convincing rationale only creates precedents that can be used by others, as happened with Grasim-L & T.
Current scenario of Capital Market in India. Every time there is a major corporate action, SEBI should proactively examine if there are issues of a contentious nature. In most major cases SEBI has tended to take up matters only when there is a referral from a court or investor forum or the government (like in the UTI's assured return schemes). Accounting, audit quality SEBI can now act proactively on the issue of accounting and auditing quality. In several recent instances in the US, such as Enron, WorldCom, Global Crossing, Merck, to name a few, companies put out blatantly false numbers and auditors went along with this charade. In India, hundreds of companies came out with IPOs and vanished subsequently, and in many companies, accounting and audit information has proved to be of poor quality and unreliable. This is where SEBI can step in and work with the government to have special audits done of the top 100 or 200 firms that account for more than 90 per cent of market capitalisation and trading. There is no reason to assume that everything is hunky-dory on the accounting-auditing front in Indian companies. Just look at the problems in the finance sector the likes of IFCI, IDBI, UTI and Centurion Bank, to name a few and one cannot help feeling there may be problems elsewhere too. The plethora of inter-corporate investments, intra-company and intra-group transactions, guarantees and contingent liabilities are areas where there is room for considerable concern. A one-time special audit, efforts to ensure that audit assignments are rotated at three- or five-year intervals and fast-tracking the process of accounting standards with relevant authorities are actions that SEBI can pursue before a crisis breaks out on this front.
Perhaps the most significant change in the market in the last decade is the complete transformation of the trading, clearing and settlement infrastructure. From a market burdened with heavy problems of paper and an opaque trading structure (where brokers and sub-brokers ruled the roost), there has been a dramatic transformation to a paperless market and transparent trading system. The last six months or so, all trades on the National Stock Exchange are settled in demat (paperless mode). Full marks to SEBI. No doubt, the process of electronic trading was set off by the NSE, but SEBI too moved rapidly to force other exchanges, especially the Bombay Stock Exchange, to adopt contemporary trading systems. By also moving towards rolling settlement (albeit after a considerable and unnecessary delay), cutting the settlement cycle and now going forward towards a T+1 settlement system, SEBI has made the markets much safer for investors. But when it comes to addressing price manipulation, the story is different. Price manipulation no dent: One area where SEBI has barely made any difference is in the manipulation of stock prices ahead of key corporate actions and even at other times when operator driven activity is rampant. The most recent instance was the manner in which all Ketan Parekh favoured stocks, such as Himachal Futuristic, Global Tele-Systems, SSI, Silverline, surged, recording heavy trading volumes. But one was left completely in the dark on what was behind the sudden spurt in interest in these stocks and the rise in prices (even if not of the 1999-2000 kind). This was the kind of situation
Current scenario of Capital Market in India. where SEBI should have stepped in proactively and told investors what was going in. This would do much more for investors than the mundane investor education programmes talked about often. Price manipulation, informed trading and insider trading with key operators/investors is now routine. This is an area that is difficult to tackle for any regulator. But over the last ten years, SEBI has taken action on such price manipulation in just two cases (Bayer ABS and Amara Raja Batteries). Here, too, the penal action has hardly been stringent. Act on corporate actions: Perhaps as a matter of routine, SEBI should take up all cases of corporate action and subject them to scrutiny for share price behaviour ahead of and after the action. Trading action is generally confined to a small list of 150 stocks, on which SEBI can focus its attention. It can also draw up a list of another 150 stocks of companies with reasonable standing but poor liquidity, for tracking. At the end of the day, SEBI's effectiveness will be enhanced only if it can make a dent in this crucial area. Else, the larger body of shareholders will be shortchanged by such price manipulation. Suggestions and Recommendations India does not have a legacy of employer provided pensions. The OASIS report is right in making the proposed pension system completely portable and independent of employers. India does not also have a legacy of social security, and does not have to contend with the nightmare of politically determined defined-benefit plans. The OASIS report is right in keeping its proposals for pension funds totally on a defined-contribution basis and providing market determined rates of return. The OASIS report is also right in eschewing any attempt to use the pension fund assets as a pool of funds for financing infrastructure or any other socially useful purpose other than on the basis of a competitive risk-return tradeoff decided by the fund manager. The broad framework of the OASIS Committee report therefore has much to be commended. However, it attempts to create a class of financial intermediaries to manage pensions which are isolated from other financial institutions. In any economy, there are institutions like mutual funds and insurance companies that provide services that have similarities to what the pension funds Ishan Institute of Management & Technology 257
Current scenario of Capital Market in India. would offer. By keeping them as distinct entities, regulated by a new regulator different from either the capital market regulator (SEBI) or the insurance regulator (IRDA), the OASIS proposals would perhaps impede the full play of scale and scope economies and restrict the pace of financial innovation. Investors would probably have more choice if pension products were fully integrated into the panoply of financial products available in the economy. The financial sector would also be more efficient and vibrant if that were done. In this context, this paper argues that pension fund reforms should be placed in the broader context of capital market development aimed at providing investors with a range of choices on risk, liquidity and maturity. It must be recognized that investors save for life cycle reasons as well as for shorter term income smoothing and for hedging human capital. Since there are no watertight compartments between these various investment needs, artificial barriers between different types of financial products and services do not serve investor interests.
