INDUSTRY ANALYSIS

1.1 INTRODUCTION
Finance is essential for running a business and entrepreneur needs finance to establish a
business to run it to modernize it to expand or to diversify it, he may require funds to buy assets
like factories trademarks patents technical expertise and so on as well as to run day to day
operations. Thus, the availability of adequate finance is vital for the survival and growth of a
business.
In an economic system we find two different sectors household sector who saves money and
business sector who needs money for the purpose of production or sale of goods and services.
These two sectors meet and transact with each other through the financial market which acts a
link between these two sectors it facilitates this function by acting as an intermediary between
the savers and investors of money. Funds from households can be allocated through two
different ways via banks or by a financial-markets. Households may deposit their surplus funds
with banks who in turn lend those funds to business firms ultimately households may buy the
shares and debentures offered by a business using financial markets.

1.2 Structure of Indian Financial system


Financial system acts as an intermediary that facilitate the flow of funds from the area of surplus
to that of deficit. Therefore, any financial system including Indian financial system is a mixed
composition of institutions, markets, regulations, law, practices, money managers, analysts,
transaction, claims and liabilities that exist within the economy.
The following functions can be considered for the Indian financial system
a) saving function b) liquidity function c) payment function d) risk function e) policy
function

1.3 FUNCTIONS OF FINANCIAL MARKETS
• Accelerate the transfer of savings from savers to investors
• Provides pricing information resulting from the interaction who represent the demand
and households who represent the supply in the market when they trade the financial
assets
• It provides liquidity to financial assets by presenting a mechanism for easy sale and
purchase of financial assets
• It helps to save money and efforts that both buyers and sellers of a financial asset would
have to otherwise spend to try and find each other

1.4 TYPES OF FINANCIAL MARKETS


A financial market consists of two major segments money market and capital market
MONEY MARKET
A market that deals in financial assets with a maturity of less than one year is known as
money market. The market does not deal in cash or money but provides a market for credit
instruments like bills of exchange, promissory notes etc. These credit instruments are used
by business unit other organizations and the government to borrow funds in order to meet
their short term requirement. Most of the money market transactions are taking place on
telephone fax or internet as money market has no physical location. The Indian money
market consists of Reserve Bank of India, commercial banks, non -banking financial
companies or NV FCS and financial institutions like LIC GIC UTI. The Reserve Bank of
India is a regulator of the money market in India.
Money market deals in credit instruments like treasury bill, commercial paper, call money,
certificate of deposit and commercial bill. These instruments meet short term requirements
of the borrowers and provides liquidity to the lenders.
CAPITAL MARKET
A market which deals in medium- and long-term funds both debt and equity is termed as
capital market. The market is an institutional arrangement of medium- and long-term funds
and which provides facilitates for marketing and trading of securities. The capital market
consists of development banks, commercial banks, and stock exchanges. The capital market
can be divided into primary market and secondary market
PRIMARY MARKET
A company issue shares and or debentures to establish new business or to expand the
existing ones .A market where a company gets listed for the first time to issue new of fresh
securities is known as primary market or new issue market .Primary market consists of
arrangements that facilitate the transfer of investable funds from savers to companies. The
investors in this market consists of banks, financial institutions, insurance companies,
mutual funds and individuals.

3
A company may use the following methods to issue securities in the primary market.
Initial public offer, rights issue, e- IPOs. A company may make IPO through prospectus,
offer for sale, private placement. Rights issue is company offers new shares to its existing
shareholders in proportion to the number of shares they already possess. The shareholders
may either accept the offer for himself or assign a part or all of his rights to another. Under
e-IPOs ,a company may issue capital to the public by the online system of the stock
exchange. For this the company has to appoint SEBI registered brokers to accept
applications and place orders and a registrar to the issue having electronic connectivity with
the exchange.
SECONDARY MARKET
An organized market where securities are traded after being initially offered to the public
in the primary market and all listed on the stock exchange is secondary market. The
secondary market is often termed as top market or stock exchange as it provides a place for
purchase and sale of existing securities such as shares, debentures and bonds, government,
securities on a regular basis. It is the secondary market that controls the price of the stocks
as majority of trading is done here. The major players in the secondary market are the ones
in the primary market that is merchant bankers, mutual funds, financial institutions,
individual investors as well as the stock brokers who are members of the stock exchange
who facilitate the trading.

1.5 HISTORY OF STOCK EXCHANGES IN INDIA


The origin of stock exchanges in India can be traced to the latter half of the 19th century. After
the American civil war (1860-61)
there was a craze for buying and selling shares among the public, so this period saw a dramatic
increase in the number of brokers dealing in shares. Increased activity in trade and commerce
during the first world war and second world war resulted in an increase in stock trading.
Functions Of Stock Exchange
• Stock exchange provides a place where listed securities are bought and sold regularly
and conveniently it gives the investors the chance to invest and disinvest as and when
they want. This lends a high degree of liquidity and marketability to existing
securities
• Stock exchange facilitates the determination of prices of securities according to the
fundamental law of supply and demand
• A stock exchange maintains a complete record of all stock transactions and supplies
regular information on the prices and sales volume to the press and other media.
This enables the investor to take quick decisions on the purchase and sale of interested
securities.
• Stock exchange transactions are conducted amongst the members only with adequate
transparency and according to the existing legal framework.
This provides a high degree of safety and investment at the stock exchange

4
• A stock exchange market channelizing savings into the most productive investment
avenues as the brokers resell or trade their securities as and when required. This leads
to capital formation and economic growth in an economy.
• A stock exchange facilitates better allocation of funds as market transactions divert
the flow of funds from less profitable to more profitable enterprises
• A stock exchange provides efficient scope for speculative activity within the
provisions of the law. It is generally established that a certain degree of healthy
speculation is essential for liquidity and price continuity in the stock market.

1.6 STOCK EXCHANGES IN INDIA


The first organized stock exchange in India was the Bombay stock exchange or BSE in Mumbai
.There were number of unorganized stock exchanges that used to function in the country
without any formal setup and were known as curb market. The Government of India passed the
Security Contracts Regulation Act in 1956 for the recognition and regulation of stock
exchanges in India. There are 23 stock exchanges in India at present. Among them the most
prominent stock exchanges are National stock exchange or NSE in Mumbai and over the
counter exchange of India or OTCEI.
National Stock Exchange
With the liberalization of Indian economy it was found inevitable to lift the stock market
trading on par with the international standards based on the recommendations of the fair Vani
committee the national stock exchange was incorporated in 1992 by industrial development
bank of India , Industrial credit and investment corporation of India , Industrial financial
corporation of India , all insurance corporations ,selected commercial banks and others .The
NSE was recognized as a stock exchange in April 1993.
Trading at NSE can be classified under two broad categories wholesale debt market and capital
market segment. Wholesale debt market segment offers a trading platform for a wide range of
fixed income securities like central government securities, treasury bills, state development
loans, bonds issued by public sector undertakings, floating rate bonds, zero coupon bonds,
index bonds, commercial paper, certificate of deposit, corporate debentures and mutual funds.
Capital market segments offers an efficient and transparent platform for trading in equity,
preference shares, debentures, exchange traded funds as well as retail government securities.

5
Bombay Stock Exchange

native share and stock brokers associations, as a voluntary non-profit making association. It
has an evolved over the years into its status as the premiere stock exchanges in the country. It

Exchanges, which was founded in 1878. The exchanges, while providing an efficient and
transparent market for trading in securities, upholds the interests Of the investors and ensures
redressed of their grievances, whether against the companies or its own members brokers.
OTCEI
The other prominent stock exchange is Over the counter exchange of India. The traditional
trading system prevailing in the Indian stock markets gave away to many functional
inefficiencies such as absence of liquidity, lack of transparency, unduly long settlement periods
and binami transactions which affected the small investors to a great extent. To provide
improved services to investors, the Over the counter exchange of India (OTCEI) was set up by
the country’s premier financial institutions-Unit trust of India, Industrial credit and investment
corporation of India, Industrial development Bank of India, SBI capital markets, Industrial
finance corporation of India, General insurance corporation and its subsidiaries .OTCEI is a
fully computerized transparent single window exchange which commands trading in 1992.The
exchange was incorporated under the companies Act 1956 and was established on the lines
of Nasdaq national association of securities dealers automated quotations.
Objectives
• To provide quicker liquidity to securities at a fixed and fair price.
• To provide liquidity for less traded securities or that of small companies.
• To provide simplified process of buying and selling.
• To provide easy and cheaper means of making public sale of new issues

1.7 SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE BOARD OF INIDA


On 12th April 1998, the Government of India established Securities and Exchange Board of
India as an interim administrative body to promote orderly and healthy growth of securities
market and for investor protection. SEBI was to function under the overall administrative
control of the Ministry of Finance of the Government of India.
The SEBI was given a statutory status on 30 January 1992 through an ordinance. The ordinance
was later replaced by an Act of parliament known as the Securities and Exchange Board of
India.

6

• To regulate stock exchanges and the securities industry to promote their orderly
functioning.
• To protect the rights and interests of investors
• To prevent trading malpractices and achieve a balance between self- regulation by the
securities industry and its statutory regulation.
• To regulate and develop a code of conduct and fair practices by intermediaries.

1.8 FOREX MARKET


A defining feature of global economy in the last few decades has been increased flows of
international trade and investment. Both these activities require the use of foreign exchange
such as dollars, euros and pounds. This is because sellers in different countries want to be paid
in their home currency or in a currency considered strong and universally acceptable. For
example, an Indian exporter exports goods to the USA, he earns dollars for his goods but will
have to convert them into rupees for use in domestic economy and an Indian importer
purchasing goods from Germany may have to convert Indian rupees into euros to pay his buyer
.This requires a foreign exchange market where foreign currencies are traded. The foreign
exchange market in any country is an essential component of the international monetary
system. The institutional framework within which the international payments are made,
national currencies are exchanged and cross currency exchange rates are determined. Cross
border transactions of trade and investment occur through an exchange of buyers and sellers.
A currency is a form of money and unit of exchange. Foreign exchange is the money of a
foreign country in the form of banknotes, drafts and cheques. It is expressed as the foreign
exchange rate which is the price of domestic currency in terms of a foreign currency, for
example INR versus US dollar or INR versus euro.
Foreign exchange market is the market where currency of one country is traded for currency
of another country. It is an over the counter market which mean that there is no physical market
place where currencies are traded. Instead it is a network of large commercial or investment
banks, brokers and dealers spread across the globe connected through telephones, faxes and
computers.
Future Prospects of Forex in India
The forex trading showed a rapid growth in the last couple of years. The transaction of forex
in India is recorded ten times from the biggest financial market the Bombay Stock Exchange.
This growth was started from the year 1990, when the Indian government liberalized the
foreign exchange market by the old method of the exchange transaction due to crisis in foreign
exchange and unbalance payment of trade.
After the liberalization of the foreign exchange market, the role of reserve bank of India is
limited to support only the Indian rupee but the forex trade in India is free to trade. Today Forex
in India is considered as a large hub internationally because of its output in terms of transaction
and immense interest of the general public

7
Present Scope of Forex in India:
Presently, all the entities including banks and financial institution are allowed to participate in
forex trading. This open space has created unlimited opportunities for an individual to invest
in forex trading. As the system is decentralized and open for worldwide buyers and sellers,
there is a lot of potential seen in forex trading in India.
Most of the transactions are seen on online portal by individuals with a forex broker and register
forex institutions. All the online portals carry benefits and risk with the capacity of trading that
needs to be examined by traders. The attraction is increased by the involvement of Reserve
Bank of India (RBI) to evaluate the amount of foreign exchange enters in the lieu of forex in
India. All the brokers are registered with the regulatory authority that decreases the risk of
scam.
Functions of Foreign Exchange
The following are the three functions of foreign exchange:
• Transfer Function: It transfers purchasing power between the countries involved in
the transaction. This function is performed through credit instruments like bills of
foreign exchange, bank drafts and telephonic transfers.

• Credit Function: It provides credit for foreign trade. Bills of exchange, with maturity
period of three months, are generally used for international payments. Credit is required
for this period in order to enable the importer to take possession of goods, sell them and
obtain money to pay off the bill.

• Hedging Function: When exporters and importers enter into an agreement to sell and
buy goods on some future date at the current prices and exchange rate, it is called
hedging. The purpose of hedging is to avoid losses that might be caused due to
exchange rate variations in the future.

1.9 TYPES OF FOREIGN EXCHANGE MARKET

FOREIGN EXCHANGE MARKET

Spot Market Forward market

8
SPOT MARKET
It is that segment of foreign exchange market where currencies are traded for immature
delivery, the day on which delivery takes place is known as value date or settlement date. The
rate applicable to on the spot rates are known as spot exchange rates.
FORWARD MARKET
A market in which foreign exchange is bought and sold for future delivery is known as Forward
Market. It deals with transactions which are contracted today but implemented sometimes in
future. Exchange rate that prevails in a forward contract for purchase or sale of foreign
exchange is called Forward Rate. Thus, forward rate is the rate at which a future contract for
foreign currency is made.

1.10 MARKET PARTICIPANTS


• Banks: The interbank market caters for both the majority of commercial turnover and
large amounts of speculative trading every day. Many large banks may trade billions
of dollars, daily. Some of this trading is undertaken on behalf of customers. But much
is conducted by propriety desks, which are the trading desks for bank’s account. Until
recently, foreign exchange brokers did large amount of business, facilitating interbank
trading and matching anonymous counterparts for large fees. Today, however, much
of this business moved on to more efficient electronic systems. The broker squawk box
lets traders listen in on ongoing interbank trading and is heard is most trading rooms,
but turnover is noticeably smaller than just a few years ago.

• Commercial companies: An important part of this market comes from the financial
activities of companies seeking foreign exchange to pay goods or services. Commercial
companies often trade fairly small amounts compare to those of banks or speculators,
and their trades often have little short-term impact on market rates.
Nevertheless, trades flows are an important factor in the long-term direction of a
currency’s exchange rate. Some multinational companies can have an unpredictable
impact when very large positions are uncovered due to exposures that are not widely
known by other market participants.

• Central Banks: Forex is fixing is the daily monetary exchange rate fixed by the
national bank of each country. The idea is that central banks use the fixing time and
exchange rate to evaluate behaviour of their currency. Fixing exchange rates reflects
the real value of equilibrium in the forex market. Banks, dealers and online foreign
exchange traders use fixing rates as a trend indicator.
The mere expectation or rumour of central bank intervention might be enough to stabilize a
currency, but aggressive intervention might be used several times each year in the countries
with a dirty float currency regime. Central banks do not always achieve their objectives. The
combined sources of the market can easily overwhelm any central bank. Several scenarios of
this nature were seen in the 1992-93 ERM collapse and in more recent times in Southeast Asia.

1.12 Michael E. Porters’ s Five Forces Model

12
Competition in The Industry (High)
Highly competitive industries have an oversized variety of companies, and extremely low
barriers to entry. The low barriers to entry mean that whenever competition reduces the number
of firms by a large amount and so, competition falls and profits rise, new firms enter the
industry trying to grab these rising profits.
A large number of firms and very low barriers to entry that firms in highly competitive
industries face relentless competition. So many firms exist in the industry that no mutual
interdependence exists between firms. Whatever one companies will can have very little impact
on the sector as a full as a result of every firm is therefore tiny.
In other words, firms in highly competitive markets are subjected to relentless and impersonal
market forces. They have little control over prices but generally must set price close to what
the market has set.

The Threat Of New Entrants To The Industry- High


Threat of new entrants is high, because the market is growing and commoditized. In recent five
years retail electronic trading in the FX spot markets has been exploding with newcomers.
The threat of new entrants as a significant force within the industry is relatively small. The
primary obstacles for potential new entrants wishing to offer financial services on a large scale
area the massive amount of capital required, the length of time required to establish a significant
brand identity, and the numerous and cumbersome government regulations apply. In the future,
however , the major companies are likely to face increasingly, competitive threats in the
industry arising from major banks in developing economies such as china that will eventually
compete on a more international scale.

Power Of Suppliers- Low


The power of supplies and buyers is very low as forex market has no central marketplace.
Trading takes place in a number of well accessible interconnected markets, volumes are high
and trading facilities are automated. Even very large currency traders and institutions are rarely
able to single- handedly drive the direction of market or prices.
Spot trading has high growing interest for newcomers because it is accessible to everyone, is
related to liquidity and offers plain cost on trading.

13
Power Of Customers-Low
The extent to which customers can influence the market depends on their level of concentration
or how well organized they are. The smallholder has to meet the strict quality control imposed
on them by the supermarkets or risk losing the contract. This enables the supermarkets, as the
customers, to exert pressure on these small suppliers.
Customers also have significant bargaining power in markets where it is easy for them to
transfer between different products without suffering any transfer cost. Customers are
concentrated than sellers, switching costs for customers are low, customers are well educated
regarding the product.

Threat Of Substitute-High
The threat of substitutes is high. As driven from speculation all other financial trading systems
are potential substitutes. Market participants have responded to this threat by providing low
entry and exit cost, high liquidity and value adding professional on-line trading advice.
Competitive rivalry is very high among market participants. The similarity in commoditized
trading platforms has resulted in high cost competition. Differentiation between competitors is
provided through additional value adding services like market analysis, trading assistance,
trading hints etc. in order to provide winning and profitable trading strategies for customers.
Many market players have started proprietary trading deciding and making trades on behalf of
their customers.

CHAPTER -4
ANALYSIS OF RESEARCH UNDERTAKEN

23
4.1 INTRODUCTION

TECHNICAL ANALYSIS

Technical analysis could be a commerce discipline used to guage investments and determine
commerce opportunities by analysing applied mathematics trends gathered from commerce
activity, like worth movement and volume. Unlike elementary analysts, who plan to valuate a
security's intrinsic price, technical analysts concentrate on patterns of worth movements,
commerce signals and numerous different analytical charting tools to guage a security's
strength or weakness

Technical analysis may be used on any security with historical commerce knowledge. This
includes stocks, futures, commodities, fixed-income, currencies, and other securities.

Technical analysis as we know it today was first introduced by Charles Dow and the Dow
Theory in the late 1800s. Several noteworthy researchers including William P. Hamilton,
Robert Rhea, Edson Gould and John Magee additional contributed to Dow Theory ideas
serving to create its basis. In modern-day, technical analysis has evolved to enclosed many
patterns and signals developed through years of analysis.

Technical analysis is based on 3 main basic assumptions


• The market discounts everything.
• Price moves in trends.
• History tends to repeat itself

In general, technical analysts look at the following broad types of indicators:

• price trends
• chart patterns
• volume and momentum indicators
• oscillators
• moving averages
• support and resistance levels

24
TECHNICAL INDICATORS

In technical analysis, a technical indicator is a mathematical calculation based on historic price,


volume, or (in the case of futures contracts) open interest information that aims to forecast
financial market direction. Technical indicators are a fundamental part of technical analysis
and are typically plotted as a chart pattern to try to predict the market trend. Indicators generally
overlay on price chart data to indicate where the price is going, or whether the price is in an
"overbought" condition or an "oversold" condition.

4.1.1 Relative Strength Index

The Relative Strength Index (RSI), developed by J. Welles Wilder, is a momentum oscillator
that measures the speed and change of price movements. The RSI oscillates between zero and
100. Traditionally the RSI is considered overbought when above 70 and oversold when below
30. Signals can be generated by looking for divergences and failure swings. RSI can also be
used to identify the general trend

25
4.1.2 Bollinger Bands

Bollinger Bands are a type of statistical chart characterizing the prices and volatility over time
of a financial instrument or commodity, using a formulaic method propounded by John
Bollinger in the 1980s. Financial traders employ these charts as a methodical tool to inform
trading decisions, control automated trading systems, or as a component of technical analysis.
Bollinger Bands display a graphical band (the envelope maximum and minimum of moving
averages, similar to Keltner or Donchian channels) and volatility (expressed by the width of
the envelope) in one two-dimensional chart.

4.1.3 Moving Average

A moving average (MA) is a widely used indicator in technical analysis that helps smooth out
price action by filtering out the “noise” from random short-term price fluctuations. It is a trend-
following, or lagging, indicator because it is based on past prices. A moving average is a
technique often used in technical analysis that smooths price histories by averaging daily prices
over some period of time.

26
4.1.4 Stochastic Oscillator

A stochastic oscillator is a momentum indicator comparing a particular closing price of a


security to a range of its prices over a certain period of time. The sensitivity of the oscillator to
market movements is reducible by adjusting that time period or by taking a moving average of
the result. It is used to generate overbought and oversold trading signals, utilizing a 0-100
bounded range of values.
