INDIAN CAPITAL MARKET: AN OVERVIEW
Indian Stock Markets are one of the oldest stock markets in Asia. Its history dates back to nearly
200 years ago. The East India Company was the dominant institution in those days and business
in its loan &securities used to be transacted towards the close of the eighteenth century. By
1830’s business on corporate stocks and shares in Bank and Cotton presses took place in
Bombay. Though the trading list was broader in 1839, there were only half a dozen brokers
recognized by banks and merchants during 1840 and 1850.
The 1850’s witnessed a rapid development of commercial enterprise and brokerage business
attracted many men into the field and by 1860 the number of brokers increased into 60. In 1860-
61, the American Civil War broke out and cotton supply from United States of Europe was
stopped; thus, the ’Share Mania’ in India begun. The number of brokers increased to about 200
to 250. However at the end of the American Civil War, in 1865, a disastrous slump began (for
example, Bank of Bombay Share which had touched Rs 2850 could only be sold at Rs. 87).At
the end of the American Civil War, the brokers who thrived out of Civil War in 1874, found a
place in a street where they would conveniently assemble and transact business.
In 1887, they formally established in Bombay, the "Native Share and Stock Brokers’
Association’. In 1895, the Stock Exchange acquired a premise in the same street and it was
inaugurated in 1899. Thus, the Stock Exchange at Bombay was consolidated.

INDIAN STOCK EXCHANGES – HISTORICAL GROWTH
The Second World War broke out in 1939. It gave a sharp boom which was followed by a slump.
But, in 1943, the situation changed radically, when India was fully mobilized as a supply base.
On account of the restrictive controls on cotton, bullion, seeds and other commodities, those
dealing in them found in the stock market as the only outlet for their activities. They were
anxious to join the trade and their number was swelled by numerous others. Many new
associations were constituted for the purpose and stock Exchanges in all parts of the country
were floated.
The Uttar Pradesh Stock Exchange Limited (1940), Nagpur Stock Exchange Limited (1940) and
Hyderabad Stock Exchange Limited (1944) were incorporated.In Delhi, two stock exchanges -
Delhi Stock and Share Brokers’ Association Limited and the Delhi Stocks and Shares Exchange
Limited - were floated and later in June 1947, amalgamated into the Delhi Stock Exchange
Association Limited.
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 largest 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. 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 exchange.
8
In 1935, the stock market activity improved, especially in South India where there was a rapid
increase in the number of textile mills and many plantation companies were floated. In 1937, a
stock exchange was once again organized in Madras - Madras Stock Exchange Association
Private Limited (In 1957, the name was changed to Madras Stock Exchange Limited). Lahore
Stock Exchange was formed in 1934 and it had a brief life. It was merged with the Punjab Stock
Exchange Limited, which was incorporated in 1936.

HISTORY OF ONLINE TRADING
Online stock trading is very old concept for big institutions that trade through private networks
owned by Reuter's "Instinet" and a system called "Posit" since 1969. But it becomes Internet
based for laymen only in late 1990s.
The idea of online stock trading was first time used by a company making Beer called "WIT
beer" to help its shareholders to trade its shares. That’s how "WIT Capital" was born which is
considered pioneer of this concept. It was made mainstream and household name by an offshoot
of Charles Schwab & Co called eSchwab which is used by millions of people in USA. Lot of
NRI'sknowto play in US stock market even when they come to India for holidays via website of
eSchwab.
There are other serious players like E*trade, DATEK online etc. All these companies ask you to
start account with US $5000 and you can buy and sell stock using these funds. They also issue
you a chequebookwhich you can use to make payments from this account or use their ATM card
to withdraw cash from your stock trading account.
Today every big name brokerage firm offers online stock trading as it reduces their costs. Earlier
they had army of brokers on phone with clients executing trade which is done by computers
accepting orders from clients directly. This firm now offers human access to high net worth
accounts and to rest at charge per trade.

E- B ROKING - A SMALL BEGINNING:
Trading shares on BSE/NSE has always been your dream. When will you ever find the time?
And besides, the hassle of finding a broker is not easy. Realizing there is untapped market of
investors who want to be able to execute their own trades and when it suits them, brokers have
taken their trading rooms to the Internet known as online brokers. They allow you to buy and sell
shares via Internet.
There are 2 types of online trading service: discount brokers and full service online
broker.Discount online brokers allow you to trade via Internet at reduced rates. Some provide
quality research, others don’t. Full service online brokerage is linked to existing brokerages.
These brokers allow their clients to place online orders with the option of talking/ chatting to
brokers if advice is needed. Brokerage rates here are higher. 5Paisa.com, ICICIDirect.com,
IndiaBulls.com, Sharekhan.com, Geojit securities.com, HDFCsec.com, Tatatdw.com,
Kotakstreet.com are some of the online broking sites in India with internet trading in securities
and rapid consolidation between multiple stock exchanges. The international securities market
place is becoming a "global village" through the creation of a universal virtual equity market.
Compared to the Western countries, online trading is still in its infancy in India with trading
turnover at around Rs. 10 crores per day from online trading compared to a combined gross
turnover of around Rs. 9000-10,000 crores handled by the BSE and NSE together. Online trading
has a long way to go.
11
INTERNET TRADING IN INDIA:
In the past, investors had no option but to contact their broker to get real time access to market
data. The Net brings data to the investor on line and net broking enables him to trade on a click.
Now information has become easily accessible to both retail as well as big investors.
The development of broking in India can be categorized in 3 phases:
1. Stock brokers offering on their sites features such as live portfolio manager, live quotes,
market research and news to attract more investors.
2. Brokers offering online broking and relationship management by providing and offering
analysis and information to investors during broking and non-broking hours based on
their profile and needs, i.e. customized services.
3. Brokers will offer value management or services such as initial public offerings on line,
asset allocation, portfolio management, financial planning and tax planning, insurance
services and enable the investors to take better and well-considered decisions.
12
OBJECTIVES OF INTERNET TRADING :
Increase transparency in the markets.
Enhance market quality through improved liquidity by increasing quote continuity and
market depth.
Reduce settlement risks due to open trades by elimination of mismatches.
Provide management information system (MIS).
Introduce flexibility in the system to handle growing volumes easily and to support
nationwide expansion of market activity.
Besides, through Internet trading, three fundamental objectives of securities regulation
can be easily achieved. These are: Investor protection, creation of a fair and efficient
market and reduction of the systematic risks.
13
PROCEDURE FOR INTERNET TRADING:
Step-1: Those investors interested in doing the trading over Internet system, that is,
NEAT-ISX, should approach the brokers and register with the Stock Broker.
Step-2: After registration, the broker will provide them a login name, password and a
personal identification number (PIN).
Step-3: Actual placement of an order. An order can be placed by using the place order
window as under:
o First by entering the symbol and series of stock and other parameters such as
quantity and price of the scrip on the place order window.
o Second, fill in the symbol, series and the default quantity.
Step-4: It is the process of review. Thus, the investor has to review the order placed by
clicking the review option. He may also re-set to clear the values.
Step-5: After the review has been satisfactory; the order has to be sent by clicking on the
send option.
Step-6: The investor will receive an ``Order Confirmation'' message along with the order
number and the value of the order.
Step-7: In case the order is rejected by the Broker or the Stock Exchange for certain
reasons such as invalid price limit, an appropriate message will appear at the bottom of
the screen. At present, a time lag of about ten seconds is there in executing the trade.
Step-8: It is regarding charging payment for which there are different modes. Some
brokers will take some advance payment from the investors and will fix their trading
limits. When the trade is executed, the broker will ask the investor for transfer of funds
by the investor to his account.
14
Brokerage cost:
It is important to weigh up the subscription and trading costs charged by an online broker against
benefits offered by the site. All online brokers display their charges on their sites. Some make
sure you find the charges easily while with others you will have to search a bit.
Safety:
Please make sure that site has 128-bit encryption to ensure safety of transaction online.
ICICIDirect.com, 5paisa.com are few sites with 128-bit encryption. You normally get a secured
Login id and password. It is always advisable to frequently change your trading password.
Ideally online trading site should be fully integrated. The greater the backward integration, the
better it is for the customer. Ideally broking account, demat account and bank account should be
linked electronically.
Rate refresh:
Rate refresh has to be real-time with no time lag. The speed and reliability comes with huge
investment in technology. It is always advisable to check rates of online broking sites with BSE/
NSE terminal rates.
Speed of execution:
System has to be fast and reliable that executes your trades quickly. The last thing you need is a
site that is heavily congested with the users who are downloading heavy jpeg graphs or pulling
the latest story why market is moving. The site should be one click wonder where squaring off
all your positions or canceling all your pending orders takes one click and a confirmation of
action.
15
Trading limit:
For trading, all sites provide 4 times buy and sell limit against margin money put in by customer.
For delivery of shares, buying limit is equal to margin money put in by customer. Couple of sites
also provides margin funding for buying of shares.
Free trial period:
Site should allow users free trial period to familiarize yourself with system before you decide to
become trading member of the site.
Intraday chart/ historical chart:
The site should provide intraday chart tick-by-tick time and price data / historical chart for
technical analysis by investors of particular scrip.
SUCCESS FACTORS FOR E-BROKING:
16
There are three key success factors for e-broking,
(I) Scalability and robustness of the trading system:
The fundamental difference between the Internet as a transaction medium and the conventional
closed user group network is that the Net is a universal platform providing concurrent access to
infinite users at any given point of time. Consequently, it becomes imperative for any Net-based
application to have a proven capability for scalability and robustness which ensures the ability to
handle and process requests from multiple users at any given point of time.
(ii) Bandwidth optimization:
In the Indian context where availability of a sufficient bandwidth is limited, the application
software should demonstrate intelligence in optimizing the available bandwidth by deploying
advanced technologies such as streaming.
(iii) Integration with third party systems:
On the Net, with information feeds available from multiple points, it is prudent to deploy
applications that are built on open architecture methodology for interfacing with third party
systems in the new Net age.
CHALLENGES IN INTERNET TRADING:
17
For Internet trading to succeed, it is imperative to have both, a robust business model as well as a
comprehensive technology strategy. Some of the challenges are discussed: Transaction
fulfillment--In the Net-based economy, it is both prudent and essential for a broker/intermediary
to offer total solution to the clients at a single point. Total solutions would essentially mean
offering interfaces with banks, depositories, information feeds, etc. for efficiency in trade
completion and reducing duplication of client information. The service providers will have to go
beyond the stage of mere order execution and emerge as "informed Aries" rather than
"intermediaries". This will not only ensure lower trading costs in terms of offering cross services
but will also help in maximizing ROIs.
FUTURE OF INTERNET TRADING:
International marketplaces are already witnessing re-alignments and changes with the emergence
of electronic communication networks (ECNs) such as INSTINET and ISLAND which are
already contributing substantial business volumes to mainline exchanges such as NASDAQ and
the NYSE. Concurrently, exchanges worldwide are looking at striking strategic alliances such as
the Global Equity Market (GEM). With internet trading in securities and rapid consolidation
between multiple stock exchanges, the international securities marketplace is fast becoming a
"global village" through the creation of a universal virtual equity market. Therefore, the
challenge for the technology providers is to develop and deploy advanced e-trading tools and
applications using electronic straight through processing technologies.

INDUSTRY ANALYSIS USING PORTER’S 5 FORCES MODEL:
27
1. SUPPLIERS:
NSDL & CSDL are the regulatory bodies for depository participants like SSKI,
SHCIL, and ICICIdirect.com etc. Also these regulatory bodies have got an upper
hand as the bargaining power of stock broking houses like Anagram etc. would be
less.
NSE & BSE are playgrounds where investors trade through stock broking houses
for which they have to take permission from NSE/BSE.
NSE & BSE are under the purview of SEBI that’s why stock broking houses like
Anagram have low bargaining power. But here there is one advantage that
NSE/BSE have i.e. they cannot go for forward integration.
MCX & NCDEX are stock exchanges which trade in commodities and
derivatives. Here again stock broking houses have to follow rules and regulations
of the same.
Web maintainers are companies which maintain web sites & technical aspects of
the same. Here stock broking houses like Anagram can have more bargaining
power due to stiff competition among web maintaining companies.
Web maintainers are companies who make and maintain soft wares for stock
broking houses. If say for example stock broking houses switches over to other
web maintainers then that company cannot understand the mechanisms of
software. So it is quite high switching cost.
28
2. BUYERS:
There are various types of investors who trade through stock broking houses like
Anagram which includes investors like small investors, medium net worth
investors, business partners, institutional investors and mutual fund companies.
Here the bargaining power of stock broking houses depends on how big the
investor is.
So here we can say that bargaining power of stock broking houses is high in case
of small investors & HUFs.
While it is less in case of mutual fund companies and institutional investors.
There is competitive buzz in stock broking industry; competitors are offering low
brokerage and best services with added feature. So switching cost is pretty much
less. So the buyer can easily switch over to competitors product.
3. COMPETITORS:
The company is facing the competition from local as well as national level players.
The local players provide facility for off-line trading while the national players like
ICICIdirect.com, Share Khan and Kotakstreet.com, HDFC Security provides
online trading services.
There are also other big names like Indiabulls, MotilalOswal, 5paisa and Marwadi
encircles the company from both the sides by providing online and off-line trading
with competitive services.
4. POTENTIAL ENTRANTS:
29
New entrant that may take away the share of current players.
Nationalized banks are also thinking to enter in this field by tying up with broking
houses. E.g. Bank Of Baroda.
5. SUBSTITUTES:
Here substitutes are such instruments that can be used instead of investing in
shares.
The instruments like Bank FD, insurance, mutual funds are the substitutes.
If the use of these instrumentswill increase, this may be disadvantage for the stock
broking houses.
The companies and banks that are having these instruments can plunge into this
industry.
Banks are planning to jump while others may come.

INTRODUCTION:
This research has been conducted to find out the future scenario of E-Broking.
In the past, investors had no option but to contact their broker to get real time access to market
data. The Net brings data to the investor on line and net broking enables him to trade on a click.
Now information has become easily accessible to both retail as well as big investors.
RESEARCH OBJECTIVES:
There must an objective behind any research. Without objective there is no meaning of research.
The purpose of research is to discover answers to questions through the application of scientific
procedures. The main aim of research is to find out the truth which is hidden and which has not
been discovered yet. As each research has some or the other objectives, the following are the
objectives of this research:
The main objective of this research is to find the future scenario of E-Broking.
It will also measure the awareness of online trading in the market of the city.

RESEARCH DESIGN :
For any researcher, the research design is the most important criteria to decide before the actual
research process starts.
There are many methods for conducting the research some of them are as under:
a) Descriptive vs. Analytical
b) Applied vs. Fundamental
c) Quantitative vs. Qualitative
d) Conceptual vs. Empirical
e) Field setting or laboratory testing research
The design of a research is a plan or a model that helps researcher to conduct a formal
investigation and survey. It is an application of methods and procedures for acquiring the
information needs for getting a desire out come. It decides the sources of data and methods for
gathering data. A good design insures that the information obtained is relevant to the research
question and that it was collected by objectives. Since, research design is simply the frame work
or plan for a study. It is a blue print that of a house devised by an architect. My approach to
research is descriptive and quite specific.
Out of these all research methods the research method, which was most suitable to my research,
was descriptive research because it provides me all the opportunities to cover the all the aspects
that I require to conduct the research and get an appropriate out come.
Descriptive research:Descriptive research includes surveys and fact – finding enquires of
different kinds. The major purpose of descriptive research is description of the state of affairs as
it exits at present. In social science and business research we often use the term Ex post facto
research for descriptive research studies. The main characteristic of this method is that the
researcher has no control over the variables; he can only report what has happened or what is
happening.
41
HYPOTHESIS:
Hypothesis is usually considered as the principal instrument in the research. Ordinarily when one
talks about hypothesis, one simply means a mere assumption or some supposition to be proved or
disproved. But for a researcher, hypothesis is a formal question that he intends to resolve. Thus
“a hypothesis may be defined as a proposition or a set of propositions set forth as an explanation
for the occurrence of some specified group of phenomena either asserted merely as a provisional
conjuncture to guide some investigation or accepted as highly probable in the light of established
facts.”
Types of Hypothesis:
Null Hypothesis and Alternate Hypothesis:
Alternate hypothesis is usually the one which one wishes to prove and the null hypothesis is the
one which one wishes to disprove. Thus a null hypothesis represents the hypothesis we are trying
to reject and alternate hypothesis is all other possibilities.
Hypothesis of the Study:
H0: “There is a very high scope of E-broking in future.
H1: “There is very less scope of E-broking in future.
42
SCOPE OF THE STUDY:
For any researcher it is always a good to check the visibility of the research that he or she is
going to conduct because that will add some purpose and intensity in the mind of a researcher for
doing a research more seriously and sincerely which will at last will effect the out comes of the
research.
The company could get to know about its stand among the other players in the market of
the city.
The company could get to know the priorities for investing their cash and kind.
Company will know about the mindset of the potential investor.
Along with this, also familiar with the awareness prevailing among the investor regarding
e-broking and its future scope.
DATA COLLECTION:
The task of data collection begins after a research problem has been defined and research
design/plan chalked out. While designing about the method of data collection to be used for the
study, the researcher should keep in mind two types of data.
1) Primary Data:
The data, which are collected for the first time, directly from the respondents to the base of
knowledge & belief of the research, are called primary data. The normal procedure is to
interview some people individually or in a group to get a sense of how people feel about the
topic. So far as this research is concerned, primary data is the main source of information. The
data collected is through questionnaire & information provided by the respondent.
2) Secondary Data:
When data are collected & compiled in a published nature, it is called secondary data. So far as
this research is concerned; Internet & many magazines and the brochures have been referred to.
SAMPLING PROCESS:
43
It is true that it is very difficult to do the research with the whole universe. As we know that it is
not feasible to go for population survey because of the numerous customers and their scattered
location. So for this purpose sample size has to be determined well in advance and selection of
sample also must be scientific so that it represents the whole universe.
So far as this research is concerned, the sample size is of 100 respondents of Bhavnagar city.
MODE OF DATA COLLECTION:
Personal visit & filling up of the questionnaire, with little bit of observation.
Sample Universe Bhavnagar city & near areas
Sampling Technique Stratified Random Sampling
Sample size 100 respondents
Research Instrument A structured formatted questionnaire
Taking into consideration that the research instrument selected by me was the questionnaire
because it gives more flexibility in terms of collection of the data and one has a chance to meet
the responder personally and have an idea of getting an important unknown data that can be
collected through their behavior.
LIMITATIONS OF THE STUDY:
44
The limitations of this study are as follows:
Personal Bias:
Some respondents may have had personal bias due to which they may not have given the correct
information and due to which the right conclusion may not be have been derived at.
Area:
The area was limited only to Bhavnagar city. The result may have varied, if it was conducted
somewhere else.
Sample Size:
The Sample size taken is only 100 which may not result in very accurate results.
Human Constraints:
The human constraints were also important limitation because the type of random sample that
has been taken for conducting the research.
Time Limit:
The time limit taken for conducting the research was very less it could also be one of the
limitations of the study.
45
DATA INTERPRETATION & ANALYSIS:
46
There are lots of players in the market including number of broker and sub brokers in the market.
In this technological era, each player in this industry taking the maximum benefit of technical
aspects by means of e-broking i.e. e-trading. The study may not include the sub brokers as for the
shake of convenience; I restricted my survey taking into consideration their name, fame & also
the products and services they give to their customers the services such as trading on phone, low
brokerage, low trade charges, the funding facilities, the deposit ratios etc. This survey is
especially focused on the awareness about the e-broking and its future in the potential market.
For any researcher, it is important that how one has analyzed his or her data in way that it can be
clearly interpreted by him and the proper results can be derived.

investor who are really interested in share broking gets its most benefit. Thus, it directly affects
the economy of India as ups and downs in the share market directly linked with the Indian
economy.
60
61
From the one and half month experience of my research project with Anagram, I have come to
know a lot of things and it has enhanced my knowledge to a great extent. I found so many good
things, which are very well for the company. But from my point of view, I found some things,
which are really needed to be taken into consideration in Bhavnagar Branch. Some of
recommendations and suggestions given by me are purely based on my study at the Anagram
broking, Bhavnagar. It doesn’t have any kind of bias on my side. They are given are as under.
Company provides well services to their customers which are better than other companies
so investors are coming to the company.
Branch has a big trade room so offline users can come and seat comfortably and can
trade, for that dealers are there for trading.
Investor gets many tips during trading by dealers and the branch head and also on screen
provided by the company research team.
The Company has a very good awareness in the city but still a very big area which are not
aware about the company. So I would like to suggest that company should advertise in
that area about their broking services.
The customers who are current working with Anagram, they complain about trade limit
provided by the branch.
The other thing is that if and only if customer deposits some amount then only they will
be allowed to more trade. So the customers, who play very high jacks on intraday basis,
sometimes would not recommend this.
62
It takes to much time to open an account (4 to 5 days). It would also one of the hindrance
for the gaining more customers.
In the city, investors are very sensitive in terms of investment and brochure and template
that are providing by the company is not convenient to them.
Find out big potential customer and encourage them for intraday trading.
Also provide encouragement for the F & O trading.
Company should give advertisement in local newspaper like DivyaBhaskar and other
local newspapers and also put hoardings in near villages of the city so farmers and other
people also can know about the company and can get the more potential customers.
63
64
CONCLUSION:
From the research, it could be concluded that Anagram in all ways as compared with the other
stock broking houses has very good scope in the Bhavnagar city. It provides very good services
to their customers. It has a very less brokerage rate than other broking houses.
Anagram in all ways is good, just that it needs to provide more and better services and fast
services to the customers. It also needs to educate the people of the city especially the once who
could afford a high deposits and wants a margin for his more trading. By this way, the company
can get two folded benefits as it can generate a good amount of brokerage by high volume of
trading and also earn the interest rate on the funding facilities given to the customers.
Still in the city the brand name needs to be emphasized on while marketing & selling the
product. Still the market is not 100% fully aware that what Anagram is and what is E-Broking.
There are so many potential customers for Broking Industry. Still Govt. Servant and Employee
and professionals are investing their money in other components. There are still 61% is the
potential future for share broking. So company has to make more marketing and try to convert
their investment in share market and make more customers. So company not only focuses to their
present customers but also focus on other potential customers.
It could come up with products which cater to all segments of the society after a little cost cutting
than fixing up a standard service for all its customers whose needs vary diversely. Hence, the
research proves the null hypothesis to be wrong & alternate hypothesis to be correct. So first of
all, Anagram has to take initiative & arrange the seminar or class that to at nominal fees and
provides the information about the potentiality and future of e-broking and how easy it was.
