INTRODUCTION
INVESTMENT
Investments can be defined as the process of, “sacrificing something now for
prospect of gaining something later” or Investment is the “sacrifice of certain present
value for the uncertain future reward”. An Investment decision is a trade off between risk
and return. All investment choices are made at points of time in accordance with the
personal investment ends and in contemplation of an uncertain future. Since investment
in securities are revocable, investment ends are transient and investment environment is
fluid, the reliable bases for reasoned expectations become more and more vague as one
conceives of the distant future. Investment in securities will, therefore from time, re-
appraise and re-evaluate their various investment commitments in the light of new
information, changed expectations and ends.
Investment is the employment of funds on assets with the aim of earning income
or capital appreciation. Investment has two attributes namely time and risk. Present
consumption is sacrificed to get a return in the future. The sacrifice that has to be born in
certain the return in the future may be uncertain. This attribute of investment indicates the
risk factor. The risk is undertaken with a view to reap some return from the investment.

The problem of surplus gives rise to the question of where to invest. In the past,
investment avenues were limited to real estate, scheme of the post office and banks. At
present, a wide verity of investment avenues is open to the investors to suit their needs
and nature. Knowledge about the different avenues are open to the investors to chose
investment intelligently. The required level of return and the risk tolerance level decide
the choice of investors. The investment alternatives range from financial securities to
traditional non-security investment. The financial securities may be negotiable or non-
negotiable.
The negotiable securities are financial securities that are transferable. The
negotiable securities may yield variable income or fixed income. Securities like equity
shares are variable income securities. Bonds, debentures, Indra Vikas Patra,
Kisan Vikas Patra, and money market yield a fixed income.
The non-negotiable financial investment as it self suggests is not transferable.
This is also know as non-securitized financial investment. Deposit schemes offered by
the post office, banks, companies, and non-banking financial companies are of this
category.
To the economist, investment is the net addition made to the nation’s capital stock
that consists of goods and services that are used in the production process. A net addition
to the capital stock means an increase in the buildings, equipments or investment. These
capital stocks are used to produce other goods and services.
Investing in various types of assets is an increasing activity that attracts people
from all walks of the life irrespective of their occupation, economic status, education and
family background. When a person has more money that he requires for current
consumption, he would be called as a potential customer. The investor who is having
extra cash could invest in securities or in any other assets like gold or real estate or could
simply deposit it I bank account. The companies that have extra income may like to
.

invest their money in the extension of the existing firm or undertake venture. All of these
activities in a broader sense mean as investment.
There are basically three concepts of investment:
1. Economic investment- That is, an economist’s definition of investment.
2. Investment in a more general or extended sense, which is used by the “common
man”.
3. Financial investment-means an exchange of financial claims-stock and bonds
(which are collectively called securities), real estate etc.
INTERMEDIARIES:
Savings can be invested in a number of investments. However, there is a gap
between the potential investors and firms offering different investment avenues. Hence,
there is a need of the hour to bring together these potential investors and such investment
companies. There are some firms which facilitate bringing together potential investors
and investment companies called intermediaries. Intermediaries are institutional or
individual agencies who assist in the process of transforming savings into investment.
The major intermediaries in the capital market are:
1. Merchant bankers
2. under-writers
3. Registrars
.
B L D E A’s A S Patil College of MBA Programme, Bijapur Page 7

4. Brokers
5. Depositories
6. collecting agents
7. Advertising agencies
8. Agents
9. Stock brokers and Sub-brokers
10. Mutual funds.
Stock exchanges are intricately inter-woven in the fabric of nation economic life.
Of all the modern service institutions, stock exchanges are perhaps the most crucial agent
and facilitators of entrepreneurial progress. After the individual revolution, as the size of
business enterprises grew, it was no longer possible for proprietors or even partnership to
raise large amount of money required for undertaking entrepreneurial ventures, such huge
requirement of capital could only met by the participation of very large number of
investors, there number running into hundreds, thousands and millions, depending on the
size of the business ventures.
It is not always possible to find buyers of an entire business or even a part of
business, just when one wishes to sell it. Similarly, it is not easy for some one with
savings, especially with a small amount of savings, to ready find an appropriate business
opportunity, or a part there of, for investment. This implies that ownership in business
has to be “Broken up” into a large number of small units, such that each unit may be
independently and sold without hampering the business activities as such.
This end is achieved in a modern business through the mechanism of shares. A
share represents the smallest recognized fraction of ownership, represented in the form of
a certificate, know as the share certificate. The banking up of the total ownership of a
business into small units, each unit represented by a shares certificate, enables them to be
.
B L D E A’s A S Patil College of MBA Programme, Bijapur Page 8
Karvy Stock Broking Ltd, Bijapur
easily bought and sold. The institution where this buying and selling of shares takes place
is called the stock exchange.
By enabling the convertibility of ownership in product market into financial assets
namely shares, stock exchange bring together buyers and sellers of fractional ownerships
of companies. These activities relating to stock exchanges and its variations are
appropriately known as stock market or security market.
INVESTMENT CHARACTERISTICS:
All investments are characterized by certain features are:
1. Return: All investors are characterized by the expectation of a return. In fact,
investments are made with the primary objectives of deriving a return. The return may be
received in the form of yield plus capital appreciation. The difference between the sale
price and the purchase price is capital appreciation. The dividend or interest received
from the investment is the yield. Different types of investment promise different rates of
return. The return from an investment depends upon the nature of the investment, the
maturity period and a host of other factors.
2. Risk: Risk is inherent in any investment. This risk may relate to loss of capital, delay
in repayment of capital, nonpayment of interest, or variability of returns. While some
investments like government securities and bank deposits are almost risk less, others are
more risky.
The risk of an investment depends on the following factors:
1. The longer the maturity period, the larger is the risk.
2. The lower the credit worthiness of the borrower, the higher is the risk.
.
B L D E A’s A S Patil College of MBA Programme, Bijapur Page 9
Karvy Stock Broking Ltd, Bijapur
3. The risk varies with the nature of investment. Investments in ownership securities
like equity shares carry higher risk compared to investments in debt instruments
like debentures and bonds.
3. Safety: The safety of an investment implies the certainty of return of capital without
loss of money or time. Safety is another feature which an investor desires for his
investments. Every investor expects to get back his capital on maturity without loss and
without delay.
4. Liquidity: An investment which is easily saleable or marketable without loss of
money and without loss of time is said to possess liquidity. Some investments like
company depends, bank deposits, P.O. Deposits, NSC, NSS etc, are not marketable.
Some investment instruments like preference shares and debentures are marketable, but
there are no buyers in many cases and hence their liquidity is negligible. Equity shares of
companies listed on stock exchanges are easily marketable through the stock exchanges.
INVESTMENT OBJECTIVES:
The main investment objectives are to increase the rate of return and reducing the risk.
Other objectives like safety, liquidity, and hedge against inflation can be considered as
subsidiary objectives.
A) Return:
Investors always expect a good rate of return form their investments. Rate of
return could be defined as the total income the investor receives during the holding period
stated as a percentage of purchasing price at the beginning of the holding period.
B) Risk:
.
B L D E A’s A S Patil College of MBA Programme, Bijapur Page 10
Karvy Stock Broking Ltd, Bijapur
Risk of holding securities is related with the probability of actual return becoming
the expected return. The word risk is synonymous with the phrase variability of return.
An investment whose rate of return varies widely from period to period is more risky
than whose return that does not change much. Every investor likes to reduce risk of his
investment by proper combination of different securities.
There are mainly two types of risks they are:
1. Unsystematic risk
2. Systematic risk
Unsystematic risk arises due to short supply of raw materials, disputes in
management etc. It is uncontrollable that is why it is known as Internal risk.
Systematic risks arise due to political, economic, social factors it is also known as
controllable risks that is why it is External risk.
INVESTOR V/S SPECULATOR
Investor plans for longer time horizon. Holding period may be from one year to
few years whereas speculator plans for very short period. Holding period varies from few
days to months.
1. Investor is ready to take moderate risk while speculator is willing to undertake
high risk.
2. Investor likes to have moderate rate of return associated with limited risk but
speculator likes to have return for assuming high risk.
3. Investor decision considers fundamental factors and evaluates the performance of
the company regularly whereas speculator considers the inside information, here
say market condition.
.
B L D E A’s A S Patil College of MBA Programme, Bijapur Page 11
Karvy Stock Broking Ltd, Bijapur
4. Investor uses the fund of his own and avoids the borrowed funds while speculator
uses the borrowed funds to supplement his personal funds.
GAMBLING AND INVESTMENT
A gamble is usually a very short term investment in a game or chance. Gambling
is different from speculation and investment. The time horizon involved in gambling is
shorter then speculation and investment. The result are determined by the roll of dice or
the turn of card. Secondly, people gamble as a way to entertain themselves, earning
income would be the secondary. Thirdly, the risk in gambling is different from the risk of
the investment. In investment there is an analysis of risk and return. Positive return are
expected by the investors. The financial analysis does not reduce the risk proportion
involved in gambling.
EARLY HISTORY AND DEVELOPMENTS OF THE INDIAN
STOCK MARKETS
The earliest records of security dealings in India were meager and obscure.
Towards the close of the 18th century, the East India company was the dominant
institution and business in its loan securities used to be transacted. The beginning of 19 th
century saw a perceptible increase in the nature of business in corporate stocks and
shares. However the main importance to the stock business came in 1856 when the
companies act providing for limited liability of members was enacted. This was followed
by a period of boom and crisis and formation of organized stock exchanges.
.
B L D E A’s A S Patil College of MBA Programme, Bijapur Page 12
Karvy Stock Broking Ltd, Bijapur
The American civil war (1860-61) resulted in the share mania of 1861-65 during
which the number of brokers increased to about 200-250 and they became possessed of
great influence, authority and wealth. Like the south sea bubble and tulip mania of the
18th century in Europe, the share mania of 1861-65 caused undesired desolation at the end
of the American civil war. Very few companies were solvent in Mumbai. The depression
was long and severe, but the share mania had certain lasting effects. The brokers
organized an informal association in 1875 which was later on formally established in
Mumbai on 3rd December 1887 as society to be called the “Native shares and stock
brokers association”. Expectation of liquid capital and the establishment of a regular
market in securities helped to take Mumbai what it is today “the chief center of the
money and capital markets” and “the financial capital of India”.
The cotton textile industry which established the primacy of Mumbai also
contributed to the development of the Ahmedabad share and stock brokers association in
1894. The stock exchanges at Mumbai and Ahmedabad were well set up property
organized association of the 20th century, but the Calcutta stock exchange was not so
constituted despite the fact that stock business in an organized way had been existing
since 1830.
INTER-WAR PERIOD:
On the eve of the worldwar-1, the stock market in India considered of 3 stock
exchanges in Mumbai, Calcutta and Ahmedabad as hostilities developed, the import of
manufacturers into India stopped almost completely as Europe ceased to produce any
manufactured articles except those required for the war. As a result Indian manufacturers
were able to penetrate the home market. It was a period of phenomenal prosperity. The
stock exchange soon became the centre of attraction for all. Rival stock exchange in
Mumbai and Ahmedabad in 1917 and 1920 respectively where formed but could not
survive long as they could not obtain official reorganization under the provisions of the
.

Karvy Stock Broking Ltd, Bijapur
Mumbai securities contracts control act 1925. futile attempts to establish stock exchange
in madras and northern India were also made.
The boom petered out in 1921 and Indian stock market went through a lean
period. The improvements in business conditions and in stock market activity in 1935
were marked by growing public interest in stocks, shares and securities. There was a
rapid increase in textile mils and many new plantations companies were floated in south
India. To cater to this expanding trade in plantation and mill shares, a stock was
organized in madras on 4th September 1937 under the name and style of the ‘Madras
stock exchange association (Pvt) Ltd’.
WORLD WAR II AND AFTER:
A period of unprecedented prosperity to the stock exchanges ushered in world war
II. Many new associations were constituted. In Ahmedabad, as many as four new stock
exchanges were set up one of another. Similarity in Lahore, which witnessed a grate
expansion of monitory income during the war, four new exchanges were established.
Calcutta and Delhi had to stock exchanges besides the existing ones. In 1940, to stock
exchanges, namely the U.P. stock exchange Ltd. And the nagpur stock exchange Ltd,
were establish in Kanpur and nagpur, respectively. In 1944, the Hyderabad stock Ltd.
Was incorporated in Hyderabad recognized under the Hyderabad securities contracts
control act. A small stock exchange was also set up in Bangalore city.
The mushroom stock exchanges during the war time suffered a total depression.
The exchanges in Lahore closed down. Most of the others stock exchanges withered
away when they applied to the central government for reorganization under the securities
contracts (regulation) act, 1956.only the old established stock exchanges in Mumbai,
calutta, Madras, Ahmedabad , Delhi, Hyderabad and Indore were recognized under this
.

act. The Bangalore stock exchange was registered subsequently in 1957 and recognized
1963.
Organization of Indian stock exchanges
The recognized stock exchanges in India vary from voluntary no-profit making
organizations (as in Mumbai, Ahmedabad and Indore) to joint stock companies Ltd by
shares (as in Calcutta, Delhi and Bangalore) and companies Ltd by guarantee (as in
Madras and Hyderabad) since the rules or articles of association defining the constitution
of the organized stock exchanges are approved by the central government. The Mumbai
stock exchange was the first to get permanent reorganization followed by Calutta, Delhi,
Madras, Ahmedabad, Hyderabad, Indore and Bangalore. At present there are 21 stock
exchanges in India (Excluding NSE and OTCEI) the largest being the Bombay stock
exchanges (BSE). The prominent ones are Mumbai, Calcutta, Madras, Delhi and
Ahmedabad. The overall development and regulation of the securities market has been
