EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
“Marketing management 12e-Analysing consumer markets” by Philip Kotler states that
perceptions are more important than reality and it affects the consumers actual behaviour.
Perception is defined as the process by which an individual selects,organizes,and interprets
information inputs to create a meaningful picture of the world.
“Online stock trading in India: An empirical investigation”
In 2007,Nidhi walia and Ravinder kumar’s research report examined the investor’s
preference for traditional trading and online trading, investor’s perception on online trading
and comparing current usage of online trading and offline trading. This study reveals that out
of every 100 investors only 28 trade online, which points out a question as why investors
were not able to realize the importance of technology in stock trading.
Online trading has gained momentum from just 0.5% of total traded volumes 5 Years
back, which now accounts for 5% of the total trading volume of approximately Rs 14000 Cr
on NSE. Over the past 2 years, the value of all trades executed through internet on NSE has
grown from less than Rs 100 cr in June 2003 to over Rs 700 Cr in June 2005.
The major findings of the study are that Indian investors are more conservative, they do
not change easily and Indian traditional traders still choose brokers for trading ,whereas net
traders are more comfortable with online trading for its transparency and complete control of
the terminal

SUGGESTIONS

OBSERVATIONS Research has been made on the topic “A study of Investor’s perception about E-trading” to
identify the level of satisfaction of traders from different location. Whole study only depends
upon DELHI-NCR online trader.
Based on the analysis and the interpretation of the data, observations and suggestions are

As 38% traders rated agree that online trading is more expensive than offline trading.
56% traders have rated on “Strongly agree” that online trading is an easy way to
trade. Rest 26% who have rated on “Agree”.
58% traders have been trading for “1-2 years”.

Similarly a hypothesis testing was done to check that approximately how many tradersin percentage feel that online trading is comfortable then online trading, the resultswere in favour as the null hypothesis is accepted: result being that more than 50% ofthe traders believe that online trading is friendlier then offline trading.
SUGGESTIONSSuggestions to Share khan Ltd. through this report
Based on the findings of the study I would like to suggest few points so that it will help them
to expand their online services.
Share khan Ltd. should focus on female traders as it in low in numbers compare to
male under 18-25
Online brokerage charges should be cut down as compare to offline brokerage because
more number of traders have rated as “AGREE” on high brokerage compare to offlinebrokerage.
Share khan Ltd. should generate better services so that they can sustain traders more
than 5 years as it is negligible.
Share khan Ltd. has to do more focus on Public employee or Self-employed as these
are less in numbers.
Though the satisfaction level is good in most of the cases with respect to easy trader
or friendlier than offline trading, full satisfaction level still needs to be achieved with
respect brokerage charges.
Share khan can let their customer Know that When to Sell YourStocks? Everyone focuses on what and when to buy stock, yet fewever consider the best time to sell. So to make online tradingfriendlier it can be done.
P a g e | 49
Self-employed traders have courage to trader or invest more in stock. So more and
more focus should be on them to gain advantage.

LIMITATIONS OF THE
STUDY
P a g e | 50
8.1 Limitation and Constraint
While questionnaire filling process sometimes the clients do not give positive
response, may be because they are really busy or may be not interested in filling it.
Due to more number of questions in questionnaires traders were doing fluke things.
While interviewing when we met the online traders, they said that if they have to
spend money they will invest it in their shops and not in the share market. They don’twant to take risk. There are some negative rumors in the market about Share khan ltd.Some people have very bad experience with Share khan in terms of services andcharges. That perception affected our data collection process.
The small sample size pertaining to a particular geographical region cannot be the
decisive factor for drawing conclusion about the study.
