INTRODUCTION OF KARVY STOCK BOROKING
INTRODUCTION
“Success is a journey, not a destination.” If we look for examples to prove this quote then we
can find many but there is none like that of KARVY. Back in the year 1981, five people
created history by establishing karvy and company which is today known as karvy, the
largest financial service provider of India.
Success sutras of Karvy:
The success story of karvy is driven by 8 success sutras adopted by it namely trust, integrity,
dedication, commitment, enterprises, hard work and team play, learning and innovation,
empathy and humility. These are the values that bind success with karvy.
Vision of Karvy:
To achieve & sustain market leadership, Karvy shall aim for complete customer satisfaction,
by combining its human and technological resources, to provide world class quality services.

standards.
Mission statement:
“Our mission is to be a leading and preferred service provider to our customers, and we aim
to achieve this leadership position by building an innovative, enterprising, and technology
driven organization which will set highest standards of service and business ethics.”
Company overview:
Karvy was established as karvy and company by five chartered accountants during the year
1979-80, and then its work was confined to audit and taxation only. Later on it diversified
7
into financial and accounting services during the year 1981-82 with a capital of Rs. 150000.
It achieved its first milestone after its first investment in technology. Karvy became a known
name during the year 1985-86 when it forayed into capital market as registrar.
EVOLUTION OF KARVY
It is well said that success is a journey not a destination and we can see it being proved by
karvy. Under this section we will see that how this “karvy and company” of 1980 became
“karvy” of 2014. Karvy blossomed with the setting up of its first branch at Mumbai during
the year 1987-88. The turning point came in the year 1989 when it decided to enter into one
of the not only emerging rather potential field too i.e.; stock broking. It added the feather of
stock broking into its cap. At the same time it become the member of Hyderabad Stock
Exchange through association firm karvy securities ltd and then karvy never looked
back…….it went on adding services one after another, it entered into retail stock broking in
the year 1990. Karvy investor services centers were set up in the year 1992. Karvy which
already enjoyed a wide network through its investor services centers, entered into financial
product distribution services in the year 1993. One year more and karvy was now dealing into
mutual fund services too in the year 1994 but it didn’t stopped there, it stepped into corporate
finance and investment banking in the year 1995.
Karvy’s strategy has always been being the first entrant in the market. Karvy again hit the
limelight by becoming the first registrar in the country to be awarded ISO 9002 in the year
1997. Then it stepped into the other most happening sectors I.e.; IT enables services by
establishing its own BPO unit’s and at a gap of just one year it look the path of e-Business
through its website www.karvy.com. Then it entered into insurance services in the year 2001
with the launch of its retail arm “karvy” the fin polis: your personal finance advisor”. Then
in the year 2002 it launched its PCG (Private Client Group) which looks after its High Net
worth Individuals and maintain their portfolio and provides them with other financial
services. In the year 2003, it commenced secondary debt and WDM trading.
It was a decade which saw many Indian companies going global…so why the largest
financial services provider of India should lag behind? Hence, karvy launched “karvy global
services limited” after entering into a joint venture with the Computershare, Australia in the
8
year 2004. The year 2004 also saw karvy entering into commodities marketing though karvy
comrade.
Year 2005 saw karvy established a separate branch for its insurance services under the head
“karvy insurance broking ltd” and in the same year, after being impressed with the rapid
growth of karvy stock broking limited, PCG group of Hong Kong acquired 25% stake at
KSBL. In the year 2006, karvy entered into one of the hottest sector of present time i.e. real
estate through Karvy realty& services (India) ltd. Hence, we can see now karvy being
established as the largest financial service provider of the country.

INTRODUCTION TO STOCK MARKET
Stock markets refer to a market place where in invertor can buy and sell stocks. The price at
which each buying and selling transaction takes is determination by the market forces (i,e.
demand and supply for a particular stock ).
Let us take an example for a better understanding of how market forces determine stock
prices. ABC Co. Ltd. Enjoys high investors’ confidence and there is an anticipation of an
upward movement in its stocks prices. More and more people would want to buy this stock
(I.e., high demand) and very few people will want to sell this stock at current market price.
Therefore, buyers will have to bid a higher prices for this stock to match the ask prices from
the seller which will increase the stock prices of ABC Co. Ltd. On the contrary, if there are
more sellers than buyers for the stock of ABC Co. Ltd. In the market, its price will fall down.
In earlier times, buyers and sellers used to assemble at stock exchange to make a transition
but now with the dawn of IT, most of the operation are done electronically and the stock
markets have become almost paperless. Now investors don’t have to gather at the exchange,
and can trade freely from their home or office over the phone or through Internet.
PRIMARY MARKET
The primary market is the part of the capital market that deals with issuing of
new securities. Companies, governments or public sector institutions can obtain funds
through the sale of a new stock or bond issues through primary market. This is typically done
through an investment bank or finance 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.
Primary markets create long term instruments through which corporate entities borrow from
capital market.
Once issued the securities typically trade on a secondary market such as a stock
exchange, bond market or derivatives exchange.
28
FEATURES:
Features of primary markets are:
This is the market for new long term equity capital. The primary market is the market
where the securities are sold for the first time. Therefore it is also called the new issue
market (NIM).
In a primary issue, the securities are issued by the company directly to investors.
The company receives the money and issues new security certificates to the investors.
Primary issues are used by companies for the purpose of setting up new business or for
expanding or modernizing the existing business.
The primary market performs the crucial function of facilitating capital formation in the
economy.
The new issue market does not include certain other sources of new long term external
finance, such as loans from financial institutions. Borrowers in the new issue market may
be raising capital for converting private capital into public capital; this is kno wn as
"going public."
IPO and FPO are two ways to generate capital from public.
IPO (INITIAL PUBLIC OFFERING)
Initial public offering (IPO) or stock market launch is a type of public offering where
shares of stock in a company are sold to the general public, on a securities exchange, for the
first time. Through this process, a private company transforms into a public company. Initial
public offerings are used by companies to raise expansion capital, to possibly monetize the
investments of early private investors, and to become publicly traded enterprises. A company
selling shares is never required to repay the capital to its public investors. After the IPO,
when shares trade freely in the open market, money passes between public investors.
FPO (FOLLOW ON PUBLIC OFFERING)
FPO is a process by which a company, which is already listed on an exchange, issues new
shares to the investors or the existing shareholders.
29
Definition: FPO (Follow on Public Offer) is a process by which a company, which is already
listed on an exchange, issues new shares to the investors or the existing shareholders, usually
the promoters. FPO is used by companies to diversify their equity base.
Description: A company uses FPO after it has gone through the process of an IPO and
decides to make more of its shares available to the public or to raise capital to expand or pay
off debt.
SECOUNDRY MARKET
The secondary market, is also called aftermarket, is the financial market in which
previously issued financial instruments such as stock, bonds options, and futures are bought
and sold. Another frequent usage of "secondary market" is to refer to loans which are sold by
a mortgage bank to investors such as Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac.
The term "secondary market" is also used to refer to the market for any used goods or assets,
or an alternative use for an existing product or asset where the customer base is the second
market (for example, corn has been traditionally used primarily for food production and
feedstock, but a "second" or "third" market has developed for use in ethanol production).
With primary issuances of securities or financial instruments, or the primary market,
investors purchase these securities directly from issuers such as corporations issuing shares in
an IPO or private placement, or directly from the federal government in the case of treasuries.
After the initial issuance, investors can purchase from other investors in the secondary
market.
The secondary market for a variety of assets can vary from loans to stocks, from fragmented
to centralized, and from illiquid to very liquid. The major stock exchanges are the most
visible example of liquid secondary markets - in this case, for stocks of publicly traded
companies. Exchanges such as the New York Stock Exchange, London Stock
Exchange and NASDAQ provide a centralized, liquid secondary market for the investors who
own stocks that trade on those exchanges. Most bonds and structured products trade “over the
counter,” or by phoning the bond desk of one’s broker-dealer. Loans sometimes trade online
using a Loan Exchange.

Basic Requirement for doing Trading
Trading requires Opening a Demat account. Demat refers to a dematerialized account.
You need to open a Demat account if you want to buy or sell stocks. So it is just like a bank
account where actual money is replaced by shares. We need to approach the Depository
Participants (DP, they are like bank branches), to open Demat account.
A depository is a place where the stocks of investors are held in electronic form. The
depository has agents who are called depository participants (DPs).
Think of it like a bank. The head office where all the technology rests and details of all
accounts held is like the depository. And the DPs are the branches that cater to individuals.
There are only two depositories in India –
The National Securities Depository Ltd (NSDL) and the
Central Depository Services Ltd (CDSL).

CASH SEGMENT
Cash trading is an investment strategy that calls for the investor to make purchases of
securities on a cash basis only. This is different from the process of trading on margin, where
the investor makes use of a line of credit extended through a broker. With the cash trading
method, the investor relies solely on the balance of his or her cash account to purchase stocks,
bonds, commodities or other investment vehicles.
INTRADAY
Intraday trading refers to opening and closing a position in a security in the same trading day.
This can be buying and selling to capitalize on a potential rise in a security's value or shorting
and covering the short to capitalize on a potential drop in value. Intraday traders capitalize on
small moves in the value of a security by using "leverage" or "margin", which basically
means borrowing money.
Most day trading accounts are allowed to take an initial position in a security that is 4X the
value of their account (per securities regulations), but some professional accounts get more
leverage (i.e. 10X). For instance, a day trader with Rs.10,000 in his/her account can take a
Rs.40,000 position in a security for day trading purposes. This amount is not allowed to be
held overnight (only about 2X the value of the account can be held overnight per securities
regs). The leverage inherent in day trading allows small gains in a position to yield
meaningful profits (and losses). Most day traders are very strict about cutting losses with
"stop loss" orders. This limits the potential downside (but not the upside) on any particular
trade, hence the adage "cut your losses short and let your profits run". With this basic
strategy, a day trader can be wrong on 50% of his/her trades and still make good money. Day
trading styles vary from "scalpers", which take positions for only a few minutes, to holding a
position for most of the day. Some day traders are momentum followers and jump onto any
33
given move, while others try to identify intraday reversals. Virtually all day traders use
technical analysis (stock charting) heavily in their decision making.
DELIVERY
Delivery Trading is a very secure Trading. If we buy shares today and sell them after 1 day
then the type of trading is called as Delivery Trading. Share you bought in Delivery option
can be sold at any time before Market closes. I.e. up to 3.30 pm. If you buy shares With the
Delivery option, It will be taken as Delivery Trade only if you sell your shares after 1 day
(may be next day or after a month or after a year, 3 years whenever you sell after 1 day it is
called delivery Trading) In Delivery Trading, it will also allow you to sell your shares
within 1 day also (may be within 1 sec, 1 hour, Before market close). But if you sell the
shares which were bought with Delivery option within 1 day(may be within 1 sec, 1 hour,
Before market close) would not be taken as a Delivery Trading and would be taken as
Intraday Trading. All the brokerages for such Trade will be charged as per intraday
brokerage charges (0.02% to 0.04%). Therefore if buy a securities with Delivery Trading
option we can also sell it in Intraday.
The main advantage of Delivery Trading is that, the Loss of Fear of Money is very less
when compared with Intraday Trading.
The main disadvantage of Delivery Trading is that, the brokerage charged by Share Broking
Companies is very high for Delivery Trading. It is around 0.2% to 0.4%. And in this type of
Trade profit will increase slowly.

FUTURE
A financial contract obligating the buyer to purchase an asset (or the seller to sell an asset),
such as a physical commodity or a financial instrument, at a predetermined future date and
price. Futures contracts detail the quality and quantity of the underlying asset; they are
standardized to facilitate trading on a futures exchange. Some futures contracts may call for
physical delivery of the asset, while others are settled in cash. The futures markets are
characterized by the ability to use very high leverage relative to stock markets.
Futures can be used either to hedge or to speculate on the price movement of the underlying
asset. For example, a producer of corn could use futures to lock in a certain price and reduce
risk (hedge). On the other hand, anybody could speculate on the price movement of corn by
going long or short using futures
OPTION
An option is a contract that gives the buyer the right, but not the obligation, to buy or sell an
underlying asset at a specific price on or before a certain date. An option, just like a stock or
bond, is a security. It is also a binding contract with strictly defined terms and properties.
35
In finance, an option is a contract which gives the buyer (the owner) the right, but not the
obligation, to buy or sell an underlying asset or instrument at a specified strike price on or
before a specified date. The seller has the corresponding obligation to fulfill the transaction
– that is to sell or buy – if the buyer (owner) "exercises" the option. The buyer pays a
premium to the seller for this right. An option which conveys to the owner the right to buy
something at a specific price is referred to as a call; an option which conveys the right of the
owner to sell something at a specific price is referred to as a put.
A. CALL: - A call option is an option contract in which the holder (buyer) has the right
(but not the obligation) to buy a specified quantity of a security at a specified price
(strike price) within a fixed period of time (until its expiration).
For the writer (seller) of a call option, it represents an obligation to sell the underlying
security at the strike price if the option is exercised. The call option writer is paid a
premium for taking on the risk associated with the obligation.
B. PUT: - An option contract giving the owner the right, but not the obligation, to sell a
specified amount of an underlying asset at a set price within a specified time. The
buyer of a put option estimates that the underlying asset will drop below the exercise
price before the expiration date.

SUGGESTION

promotional activities for gaining more market share as karvy’s competitors are doing

knowledge of prospective and exiting customers, so that they can feel more
comfortable while investing in stock market.
4. They should upgrade their technology. As their competitor already have advance

CONCLUSION
While doing my summer internship program I came to a conclusion that this training has
helped me much in getting the thorough knowledge about some of the stock broking
companies, how these companies are competing against each other for getting the more
market share, how they are applying different marketing strategies to attract customers and
making them satisfied.
I came to know about the demat account, its benefits, how does it provides services the
customers of which I was totally ignorant when I started my project.
I gathered much more knowledge about Karvy Stock Broking Ltd. Its services, its strategies,
and how every employees of it work hard to achieve the organizational goal I.e. achieve the
maximum market share through customer satisfaction.
One thing that I noticed during my field work that many people of INDORE not
much more awarded about the various financial products and services of Karvy
which had to be there. They are ignorant about demat account and lack of
knowledge and information about it scared them of investing money in share
market. So to generate awareness among them advertising campaign can result
in fruitful results. Only a limited percentage of people are enjoying investing
money in share market in INDORE
.
Lastly and not the least as a coin has two sides, Karvy has favourable and
unfavourable aspects. The favourable aspect is that it provides lot of benefits to
its customers which some of its competitors fail to provide and again less
awareness about it among people is its negative side which hinders them to
invest their fund confidently.
