    central market place for raising funds by Governmentsandvarious corporations to expand their businesses and

    shareholding base. This is usuallydone by issuing shares in a

    company which can then be bought and sold.What is a stockexchange?The fundamental role of a stock exchange is to

    provide a fair and internationallycompetitive market place forthe trading of financial securities for the benefit of

    allparticipants (Listed Companies, Institutions and small

    investors).All countries who have a local stock exchange aim

    to provide a market place whereby: Companies and

    Governments can raise funds, and Investors can invest

    surplus funds in anticipation of receiving dividends andcapital gain from their share investments.What is a share

    market?The share market comprises of two markets:The first

    is a primary market whereby companies or Governments issue

    new shares inorder to raise capital to expand their operations

    (for whatever reason) and take on awider range of

  • 8/6/2019 A Study of Consumer Behaviour Towards Equities and Derivatives Market in Udaipur City

    13/38

    shareholders. This is done by issuing an investment statement

    and/or aprospectus through an organizing or underwriting

    broker.The second is the secondary market, which is the

    central market place provided by thestock exchange, where

    investors trade existing securities/shares.What is a share andwhat is their use?

    23. A share is a basic unit of ownership in a company.When you buy a share, you become a part-owner of a

    company. Ownership of that company is divided into millions

    of parts. These parts are called shares and each person who

    buys a share is a shareholder. The directors of the company

    are employed to manage the business, but the company iswholly owned by its shareholders. When a company is

    founded, it often progresses and develops and often to expand,

    it requires financial help. The company can opt to borrow

    funds from the bank and pay interest like a loan or they can

    opt to raise funds by becoming a listed company on the sharemarket. There are many Rules and Regulations that a

    company must abide by and comply with, if they wish to list

    and issue securities on the New Zealand Stock Exchange.These Rules are administered and enforced by an independent

    Market Surveillance Panel Once a Company has become aListed Company on the NZX, it can raise funds by offering

    shares in return for cash. A share of ownership is what the

    investor gets in exchange for their financial support.

    Securities Ltd works in three market :- 1. Equity 2.

    Derivatives 3. CommoditiesEquityEquity is a term whosemeaning depends very much on the context. In general, you

    canthink of equity as ownership in any asset after all debts

    associated with that asset arepaid off. For example, a car or

    house with no outstanding debt is considered the

    ownersequity since he or she can readily sell the items for

  • 8/6/2019 A Study of Consumer Behaviour Towards Equities and Derivatives Market in Udaipur City

    14/38

    cash. Stocks are equity becausethey represent ownership of a

    company, whereas bonds are classified as debt becausethey

    represent an obligation to pay and not ownership of assets.To

    support its investment, a firm must find means to finance

    them. Equity and debtrepresent two broad sources of financefor a business firm.Derivatives

    24. Derivatives as a term conjures up visions of complexnumeric calculations, speculativedealings and comes across as

    an instrument which is the prerogative of a few smartfinance

    professionals. In reality it is not so. In fact, a derivative

    transaction helps coverrisk, which would arise on the trading

    of securities on which the derivative is based anda smallinvestor, can benefit immensely.A derivative security can be

    defined as a security whose value depends on the values

    ofother underlying variables. Very often, the variables

    underlying the derivative securitiesare the prices of traded

    securities.Let us take an example of a simple derivativecontract:Ram buys a futures contract.He will make a profit of

    Rs 1000 if the price of Infosys rises by Rs 1000.If the price is

    unchanged Ram will receive nothing.If the stock price ofInfosys falls by Rs 800 he will lose Rs 800.As we can see, the

    above contract depends upon the price of the Infosys scrip,which isthe underlying security. Similarly, futures trading has

    already started in Sensex futuresand Nifty futures. The

    underlying security in this case is the BSE Sensex and NSE

    Nifty.Derivatives and futures are basically of 3

    types:Forwards and FuturesOptionsSwaps( i ) Forward

    contractA forward contract is the simplest mode of aderivative transaction. It is an agreement tobuy or sell an asset

    (of a specified quantity) at a certain future time for a certain

    price.No cash is exchanged when the contract is entered

    into.What is an Index?

  • 8/6/2019 A Study of Consumer Behaviour Towards Equities and Derivatives Market in Udaipur City

    15/38

    25. To understand the use and functioning of the indexderivatives markets, it is necessaryto understand the

    underlying index. A stock index represents the change in

    value of aset of stocks, which constitute the index. A market

    index is very important for the marketplayers as it acts as abarometer for market behavior and as an underlying inderivativeinstruments such as index futures.The Sensex and

    NiftyIn India the most popular indices have been the BSE

    Sensex and S&P CNX Nifty. TheBSE Sensex has 30 stocks

    comprising the index which are selected based on

    marketcapitalization, industry representation, trading

    frequency etc. It represents 30 large well-established and

    financially sound companies. The Sensex represents a broad

    spectrumof companies in a variety of industries. It represents

    14 major industry groups. Thenthere is a BSE national index

    and BSE 200. However, trading in index futures has

    onlycommenced on the BSE Sensex.While the BSE Sensex

    was the first stock market index in the country, Nifty

    waslaunched by the National Stock Exchange in April 1996

    taking the base of November 3,1995. The Nifty index consists

    of shares of50 companies with each having a

    marketcapitalization of more than Rs 500 crore.Futures and

    stock indicesFor understanding of stock index futures a

    thorough knowledge of the composition ofindexes is essential.

    Choosing the right index is important in choosing the right

    contractfor speculation or hedging. Since for speculation, the

    volatility of the index is importantwhereas for hedging the

    choice of index depends upon the relationship betweenthestocks being hedged and the characteristics of the

    index.Choosing and understanding the right index is important

    as the movement of stockindex futures is quite similar to that

    of the underlying stock index. Volatility of the futuresindexes

    is generally greater than spot stock indexes.Every time an

    investor takes a long or short position on a stock, he also has

    an hiddenexposure to the Nifty or Sensex. As most often stock

    values fall in tune with the entiremarket sentiment and rise

    when the market as a whole is rising.

    26. Retail investors will find the index derivatives useful dueto the high correlation of theindex with their portfolio/stock

    and low cost associated with using index futures

    forhedging.Understanding index futuresA futures contract is

    an agreement between two parties to buy or sell an asset at

    acertain time in the future at a certain price. Index futures are

    all futures contracts wherethe underlying is the stock index

    (Nifty or Sensex) and helps a trader to take a view onthemarket as a whole.Index futures permits speculation and if a

    trader anticipates a major rally in the markethe can simply buy

    a futures contract and hope for a price rise on the futures

    contractwhen the rally occurs. We shall learn in subsequent

    lessons how one can leverage onesposition by taking positionin the futures market.In India we have index futures contracts

    based on S&P CNX Nifty and the BSE Sensexand near 3

    months duration contracts are available at all times. Eachcontract expireson the last Thursday of the expiry month and

    simultaneously a new contract isintroduced for trading afterexpiry of a contract.( ii ) OptionsStock markets by their very

    nature are fickle. While fortunes can be made in a jiffy

    moreoften than not the scenario is the reverse. Investing in

    stocks has two sides to it a)Unlimited profit potential from

    any upside (remember Infosys, HFCL etc) or b) adownside

    which could make you a pauper.Derivative products arestructured precisely for this reason -- to curtail the risk

    exposureof an investor. Index futures and stock options are

    instruments that enable you to hedgeyour portfolio or open

    positions in the market. Option contracts allow you to run

    yourprofits while restricting your downside risk.Apart from

  • 8/6/2019 A Study of Consumer Behaviour Towards Equities and Derivatives Market in Udaipur City

    17/38

    risk containment, options can be used for speculation and

    investors cancreate a wide range of potential profit

    scenarios.What are options?

    27.

    Some people remain puzzled by options. The truth is thatmost people have been usingoptions for some time, becauseoptions are built into everything from mortgages

    toinsurance.An option is a contract, which gives the buyer the

    right, but not the obligation to buy orsell shares of the

    underlying security at a specific price on or before a specific

    date.Option, as the word suggests, is a choice given to the

    investor to either honour thecontract; or if he chooses not to

    walk away from the contract.To begin, there are two kinds ofoptions:Call Options and Put Options.A Call Option is an

    option to buy a stock at a specific price on or before a certain

    date.In this way, Call options are like security deposits. If, for

    example, you wanted to rent acertain property, and left a

    security deposit for it, the money would be used to insurethatyou could, in fact, rent that property at the price agreed upon

    when you returned. Ifyou never returned, you would give up

    your security deposit, but you would have noother liability.Call options usually increase in value as the value of the

    underlyinginstrument rises.When you buy a Call option, theprice you pay for it, called the option premium, securesyour

    right to buy that certain stock at a specified price called the

    strike price. If youdecide not to use the option to buy the

    stock, and you are not obligated to, your onlycost is the option

    premium.A Put Options are options to sell a stock at a specific

    price on or before a certain date.In this way, Put options arelike insurance policiesIf you buy a new car, and then buy auto

    insurance on the car, you pay a premium andare, hence,

    protected if the asset is damaged in an accident. If this

    happens, you canuse your policy to regain theinsured value of

    the car. In this way, the put option gains in value as the value

  • 8/6/2019 A Study of Consumer Behaviour Towards Equities and Derivatives Market in Udaipur City

    18/38

    of theunderlying instrument decreases. If all goes well and the

    insurance is not needed, theinsurance company keeps your

    premium in return for taking on the risk.With a Put Option,

    you can "insure" a stock by fixing a selling price. If

    somethinghappens which causes the stock price to fall, andthus, "damages" your asset, you canexercise your option andsell it at its "insured" price level. If the price of your stock

    goesup, and there is no "damage," then you do not need to use

    the insurance, and, once

    28. again, your only cost is the premium. This is the primaryfunction of listed options, toallow investors ways to manage

    risk.Technically, an option is a contract between two parties.The buyer receives a privilegefor which he pays a premium.

    The seller accepts an obligation for which he receives

    afee.There are two types of options: Call Options Put

    OptionsCall optionsCall options give the taker the right, but

    not the obligation, to buy the underlying sharesat apredetermined price, on or before a predetermined date.Put

    OptionsA Put Option gives the holder of the right to sell a

    specific number of shares of anagreed security at a fixed pricefor a period of time.eg: Sam purchases 1 INFTEC (Infosys

    Technologies) AUG 3500 Put --Premium 200This contractallows Sam to sell 100 shares INFTEC at Rs 3500 per share at

    any timebetween the current date and the end of August. To

    have this privilege, Sam pays apremium of Rs 20,000 (Rs 200

    a share for100 shares).The buyer of a put has purchased a

    right to sell. The owner of a put option has the rightto

    sell.Commodities

    29. A commodity is something that is relatively easilytraded, that can be physicallydelivered, and that can be stored

    for a reasonable period of time. It is a characteristic

    ofcommodities that prices are determined on the basis of an

  • 8/6/2019 A Study of Consumer Behaviour Towards Equities and Derivatives Market in Udaipur City

    19/38

    active market, rather than bythe supplier(or other seller) on a

    "cost-plus" basis. Examples of commodities includenot only

    minerals and agricultural products such as iron ore, crude oil,

    ethanol, sugar,coffee, aluminium, rice, wheat, gold, diamonds,

    or silver, but also so-called"commoditized" products such aspersonal computers.Linguistically, the word commodity cameinto use in English in the 15th century, beingderived from the

    French word "commodit", meaning todays (2000)

    "convenience" interm of quality of services. The Latin root

    meaning is commodities, referring variously tothe appropriate

    measure of something; a fitting state, time or condition; a

    good quality;efficaciousness or propriety; and advantage, or

    benefit. The German equivalent is dieWare, i.e. wares or

    goods offered for sale. The French equivalent is "product de

    base"like energy, goods, or industrial raw material

    Submitted in partial fulfillment for the Award of degree of

    Master ofBusiness Administration & To find strength Toknow more about the Company / OrganizationThe duration

    of the project is Objective of studyThe

    main objectives of the study are as follows :- & To know

    significance and relevance of internalweakness of the

    Company / Organization & To know what major factors

    effects or influence internalinteractive marketing &

    interactive marketing for financial marketing RESEARCHMETHODOLOGYA Research is careful investigation orinquiry, especially through search for new factsin any branch

    of knowledge. It is a systemized effort to gain more

    knowledge.

    33. Research methodology is a way to systematically solvethe research problem. It maybe understood as a science of

    studying how research is done scientifically. We studythe

    various steps that are generally adopted by a researcher instudying his researchproblem along with the logic behind

    them. It is necessary for the researcher to know notonly the

    research methods or techniques but also the methodology.

    Researcher alwaysneeds to understand the assumptionsunderline various technique and they need toknow the criteria

  • 8/6/2019 A Study of Consumer Behaviour Towards Equities and Derivatives Market in Udaipur City

    21/38

    by which they can decide that certain technique and

    procedures will beapplicable to certain problems and other

    will not.The predefined objective can be achieved by

    following ways: o Studying the buying behavior of customer.

    o Comparing sales of different players.TYPE OFRESEARCH:Personal interview approach was adopted for theproject. In this type of research, theresearcher has to contact

    the person directly to know the available information

    andanalyze the data was available in interviewers statements.

    This was one of the mainsources for the project.The other

    approach was PERSONNEL RESEARCH. It is based on the

    personalknowledge. It is applicable to phenomenon that can

    be expressed in terms of words.RESEARCH PROCESS:

    34. Research Process consists of a series of action or stepsnecessary to effectively carryout the research and the desired

    sequencing of these steps. The various steps, whichprovided

    guidelines to the research process pertaining to the project, areas follows: 1) Formulating the research problem Formulation

    of research problem involves understanding the problem

    thoroughly and rephrasing the same into meaningful termsfrom an analytical point of view. 2) Extensive literature

    survey It is necessary for the researcher to conduct anextensive survey connected with the problem. For the purpose

    manual, company records, journals, published data can be

    used. 3) Development of working hypotheses Working

    hypotheses is a tentative assumption made in order to draw

    out and rest its logical or empirical consequences.4)

    Preparing the research design The researcher will be requiredto prepare a research i.e. he will have to state the conceptual

    structure within which research would be conducted. The

    function of research design is to provide the collection of

    relevant evidence with minimum expenditure of efforts, time

    and money.5) Determining the sample design The researcher

  • 8/6/2019 A Study of Consumer Behaviour Towards Equities and Derivatives Market in Udaipur City

    22/38

    must decide a way of selecting a sample or what is popularly

    known as sample design. The types of sample design are: o

    Simple Sampling

    35.

    o Random Sampling o Systematic Random Sampling oStratified Sampling o Quota Sampling o Cluster and AreaSampling o Multistage Sampling o Sequential Sampling o

    CensusFor this project, Random Sampling was used among

    the above-mentioned types.Since the time period was limited

    to 2 months, the sampling size was limited to 75.6)

    Collection of data While deciding the methods of data

    collection to be used for study the researcher should keep in

    mind two types of data viz. Primary Data The Primary Dataare those, which are collected a fresh and for the first time and

    thus happen to be original in character. Secondary Data

    Secondary data means data that are already available i.e. they

    refer to the data which have already been collected and

    segregated by someone else. The researcher has to determinethe various sources of obtaining secondary data. Secondary

    data may be published or unpublished in nature.

    36. Published data are available in: Publications of central,state and local newspapers Publication of foreign

    government or of international bodies Technical or trade

    journals Books, magazines and newspaper and Internet

    Public record and statistics, historical documents and sources

    of public information. Data Collection Data used for the

    project was the secondary and primary data. Methods of Data

    Collection Personal Interview Questionnaire &

    Telephonic Interview.7) Analysis of data Analyses of data

    can of two types: Quantitative analysis Qualitative

    analysisThus analysis of data require a number of closely

    related operations such asestablishment of categories, the

    application of these categories into raw data

  • 8/6/2019 A Study of Consumer Behaviour Towards Equities and Derivatives Market in Udaipur City

    23/38

    throughtabulation, chart and then draw inferences. Analysis

    work is generally based on thecomputation of various

    percentage, co-efficient etc. by applying various

    statisticalformulae.

    37. Preparation of ReportsAfter analysis, the next step is inthe preparation of the report. The report has beenprepared

    according to the report writing principles.The Objective,

    clarity in presentation of ideas and the uses of charts have

    beenmaintained throughout the report.Once the data has been

    collected, the researcher has to process, analyze and

    interpretthe same. It was emphasized that the researcher

    should exercise good care to ensurethat reliable data are notproperly processed and analyzed. Sufficient attention is

    oftennot given to these aspects, with the result that the quality

    of the report suffers.Editing The first task in data is editing.

    It is the process by which data are preparedfor subsequent

    coding. As it is very subjective process, editing is the processofexamining errors and omission in the collected data and

    making necessary in the samethis is desirable when there is

    more inconsistency in the responses.Coding Coding is theprocedure of classifying the answers to a question

    inmeaningful categories the symbol used to indicate thecategories are called codes.Coding is necessary to carry out

    the subsequent operation of tabulation and

    analyzingdata.Coding involves two steps:Tabulation:

    Tabulation comprises of sorting of data into different

    categories andcounting the number of cases that belongs to

    each categories.One is unvaried tabulation. This includes thenumbers of responses to one question orto count. Its very

    simplest way to tabulate where two or more variables are

    involved intabulation. It is called vicariate or multivariate

    tabulation. In marketing research project,generally both type

    of tabulation is used.

    38. INDIAN Capital Market-Indian Stock Markets are one ofthe oldest in Asia. Its history dates back to nearly 200years

    ago. The earliest records of security dealings in India are

    meager and obscure.The East India Company was the

    dominant institution in those days and business in itsloansecurities used to be transacted towards the close of theeighteenth century.By 1830s business on corporate stocks and

    shares in Bank and Cotton presses tookplace in Bombay.

    Though the trading list was broader in 1839, there were only

    half adozen brokers recognized by banks and merchants

    during 1840 and 1850.The 1850s witnessed a rapid

    development of commercial enterprise and brokeragebusiness

    attracted many men into the field and by 1860 the number of

    brokersincreased into 60.In 1860-61 the American Civil War

    broke out and cotton supply from United States ofEurope was

    stopped; thus, the Share Mania in India begun. The number of

    brokersincreased 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

    Rs2850 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 (now appropriately called as

    Dalal Street) where they wouldconveniently assemble and

    transact business. In 1887, they formally established

    inBombay, the "Native Share and Stock Brokers Association"

    (which is alternativelyknown as " The Stock Exchange "). In

    1895, the Stock Exchange acquired a premise inthe same

    street and it was inaugurated in 1899. Thus, the StockExchange at Bombaywas consolidated.GROWTHThe

    working of stock exchanges in India started in 1875. BSE is

    the oldest stock marketin India. The history of Indian stock

    trading starts with 318 persons taking membershipin Native

    Share and Stock Brokers Association, which we now know by

  • 8/6/2019 A Study of Consumer Behaviour Towards Equities and Derivatives Market in Udaipur City

    25/38

    the nameBombay Stock Exchange or BSE in short. In 1965,

    BSE got permanent recognition fromthe Government of India.

    National Stock Exchange comes second to BSE in terms

    ofpopularity. BSE and NSE represent themselves as

    synonyms of Indian stock market.The history of Indian stockmarket is almost the same as the history of BSE.

    39. The 30 stock sensitive index or Sensex was firstcompiled in 1986. The Sensex iscompiled based on the

    performance of the stocks of 30 financially sound

    benchmarkcompanies. In 1990 the BSE crossed the 1000

    mark for the first time. It crossed 2000,3000 and 4000 figures

    in 1992. The reason for such huge surge in the stock marketwasthe liberal financial policies announced by the then

    financial minister Dr. Man MohanSingh. The up-beat mood of

    the market was suddenly lost with Harshad Mehtascam. It

    came to public knowledge that Mr. Mehta, also known as the

    big-bull of Indianstock market diverted huge funds frombanks through fraudulent means. He played with270 million

    shares of about 90 companies. Millions of small-scale

    investors becamevictims to the fraud as the Sensex fell flatshedding 570 points.To prevent such frauds, the Government

    formed The Securities and Exchange Board ofIndia, throughan Act in 1992. SEBI is the statutory body that controls and

    regulates thefunctioning of stock exchanges, brokers, sub-

    brokers, portfolio managers investmentadvisors etc. SEBI

    oblige several rigid measures to protect the interest of

    investors.Now with the inception of online trading and daily

    settlements the chances for a fraud isnil, says top officials ofSEBI. Sensex crossed the 5000 mark in 1999 and the 6000

    mark in 2000. The 7000 mark was crossed in June and the

    8000 mark on September 8 in 2005. Sensex crossed the

    10000 mark in 2006. Many foreign institutional investors

    (FII) are investing in Indian stock markets on a very large

  • 8/6/2019 A Study of Consumer Behaviour Towards Equities and Derivatives Market in Udaipur City

    26/38

    scale. The liberal economic policies pursued by successive

    Governments attracted foreign institutional.

    40. Future of Indian stock marketsThe stock market isbooming in spite of the low agriculture output. The Monsoonis goodin an overall sense but still the question remains aboutwho will take the credit for it. Theanswer is the karma of the

    people. I would like to appreciate the Indian politicians andthe

    industrialists who are pawns of destiny for doing many things

    positive andproductive. India as a country is running a very

    good period and the very position of theplanets in transit are

    giving wonderful result. Only less than 1 per cent of the

    population own stocks and less than 1,000 individuals controlthe market, the majority being the FIIS, the promoters of the

    company. The credit should go to the media for making stock

    markets the headlines. First of all, Indian bourses in the future

    will be one of the best investments in the world.There will be

    a time when it can even reach 3000 points in the Nifty. Indiawill begin oneof the best data of sun which will work in its

    favor. So before 2009 Indian boursesshould go from high to

    high from time to time. Now this bull run will continue. There can be some correction in the BSE Sensex at the 7500

    points level. The market will hover between the 6000-7000till mid-August. There will be huge fluctuations. Better for

    many investors and new entrants for the market to cool down

    a bit and let it come well below 7000. In any case, if you are

    long-term players, then step in and buy now and forget for

    another10 years. You will make a killing in the Indian

    markets. Most of the tech companies and the main index willdo well but slightly on the lower side of expectations.

    41. National Stock Exchange (NSE)With the liberalization ofthe Indian economy, it was found inevitable to lift the

    Indianstock market trading system on par with the

  • 8/6/2019 A Study of Consumer Behaviour Towards Equities and Derivatives Market in Udaipur City

    27/38

    international standards. On the basis of therecommendations

    of high powered Pherwani Committee, the National Stock

    Exchangewas incorporated in 1992 by Industrial Development

    Bank of India, Industrial Credit andInvestment Corporation of

    India, Industrial Finance Corporation of India, allInsuranceCorporations, selected commercial banks andothers.Trading at NSE can be classified under two broad

    categories:(a) Wholesale debt market and(b) Capital

    market.Wholesale debt market operations are similar to

    money market operations - institutionsand corporate bodies

    enter into high value transactions in financial instruments such

    asgovernment securities, treasury bills, public sector unit

    bonds, commercial paper,certificate of deposit, etc.There are

    two kinds of players in NSE:(a) trading members and(b)

    participants.Recognized members of NSE are called trading

    members who trade on behalf ofthemselves and their clients.

    Participants include trading members and large playerslike

    banks who take direct settlement responsibility.Trading at

    NSE takes place through a fully automated screen-based

    trading mechanismwhich adopts the principle of an order-

    driven market. Trading members can stay at theiroffices and

    execute the trading, since they are linked through a

    communication network.The prices at which the buyer and

    seller are willing to transact will appear on thescreen. When

    the prices match the transaction will be completed and a

    confirmation slipwill be printed at the office of the trading

    member.

    42. NSE has several advantages over the traditional tradingexchanges. They are asfollows: NSE brings an integrated

    stock market trading network across the nation. Investors

    can trade at the same price from anywhere in the country

    since inter- market operations are streamlined coupled with

    the countrywide access to the securities. Delays in

  • 8/6/2019 A Study of Consumer Behaviour Towards Equities and Derivatives Market in Udaipur City

    28/38

    communication, late payments and the malpractices

    prevailing in the traditional trading mechanism can be done

    away with greater operational efficiency and informational

    transparency in the stock market operations, with the support

    of total computerized network.Unless stock markets provideprofessionalized service, small investors and foreigninvestorswill not be interested in capital market operations. And capital

    market beingone of the major sources of long-term finance for

    industrial projects, India cannot affordto damage the capital

    market path. In this regard NSE gains vital importance in

    theIndian capital market system. Bombay Stock Exchange

    (BSE)

    43. Bombay Stock Exchange Limited is the oldest stockexchange in Asia with a richheritage. Popularly known as

    "BSE", it was established as "The Native Share &

    StockBrokers Association" in 1875. It is the first stock

    exchange in the country to obtainpermanent recognition in1956 from the Government of India under the

    SecuritiesContracts (Regulation) Act, 1956.The Exchanges

    pivotal and pre-eminent role in thedevelopment of the Indiancapital market is widely recognized and its index, SENSEX,is

    tracked worldwide. Earlier an Association of Persons (AOP),the Exchange is now ademutualised and corporatized entity

    incorporated under the provisions of theCompanies Act, 1956,

    pursuant to the BSE(Corporatization and

    Demutualization)Scheme, 2005 notified by the Securities and

    Exchange Board of India (SEBI).With demutualization, the

    trading rights and ownership rights have been de-linkedeffectively addressing concerns regarding perceived and

    real conflicts of interest. TheExchange is professionally

    managed under the overall direction of the Board ofDirectors.

    The Board comprises eminentprofessionals, representatives of

    Trading Members and the Managing Director of theExchange.

    participation ofmarket intermediaries.In terms of organization

    structure, the Board formulates larger policy issues

    andexercises over-all control. The committees constituted by

    the Board are broad-based.The day-to-day operations of theExchange are managed by the Managing Director andamanagement team of professionals.The Exchange has a

    Exchange are ISO 9001:2000 certified.Demat account, short

    term for dematerialized account is a type of banking

    accountwhich dematerialize the paper-based physical

    shares.The idea of dematerialized account is to avoid the need

    to hold physical shares--theshares are virtually being bought

    and sold through the banking account.

    46. Relevance of Internal & Interactive MarketInternalmarketing (IM) is an ongoing process that occurs strictly

    within a companyor organization whereby the functional

    process aligns, motivates and empowersemployees at all

    management levels to consistently deliver a satisfying

  • 8/6/2019 A Study of Consumer Behaviour Towards Equities and Derivatives Market in Udaipur City

    30/38

    customerexperience.Key concepts of internal marketing

    include: o IM functioning as a continual internal up skilling

    process. o Alignment of the organizations purpose with

    employee behavior. o Employees internalizing the core values

    of the organization. o Motivation, reframing andempowerment of employee attitude. o Inside-out managementapproach. o Retaining a positive customer experience

    throughout the business objectivesInternal marketing is an

    important implementation tool. It aids communication

    andhelps us to overcome any resistance to change. It informs,

    ands involves all staff in newinitiatives and strategies. It is

    simple to construct, especially if you are familiar

    withtraditional principles of marketing.If not, it would be

    valuable to spend some time considering marketing plans.

    Internalmarketing obeys the same rules as, and has a similar

    structure to, external marketing.The main differences are that

    your customers are staff and colleagues from your

    ownorganization.In previous lessons, you will have seen that

    the process of marketing follows a familiarpattern for which

    we use the acronym AOSTC - Analysis, Objectives,

    Strategies,Tactics, and Control. In the diagram above, Jobber

    (1995) uses a similar approach as astructure for the

    implementation of internal marketing. The process is

    straightforward. Set objectives for internal marketing e.g. to

    persuade 100 staff to join a new Performance Related Pay

    (PRP) scheme. Your strategy is internal marketing. Tactics

    would include an internal application of the marketing mix,

    and could include staff forums, presentations, an intranet,away days, videos, personal visits by company directors or

    newsletters.

    practicalities of internal marketing Internal marketingIn

    previous lessons, you will have seen that the process of

    marketing follows a familiarpattern for which we use the

    acronym AOSTC - Analysis, Objectives, Strategies,Tactics,

    and Control. In the diagram above, Jobber(1995) uses asimilar approach as astructure for the implementation ofinternal markefrom your own organization. Set objectives

    for internal marketing e.g. to persuade 100 staff to join a new

    Performance Related Pay (PRP) scheme. Your strategy is

    internal marketing. Tactics would include an internal

    application of the marketing mix, and could include staff

    forums, presentations, an intranet, away days, videos, personal

    visits by company directors or newsletters.Implications of

    marketing Who are our existing / potential customers?

    What are their current / future needs? How can we satisfy

    these needs? Can we offer a product/ service that the

    customer would value? Can we communicate with our

    customers? Can we deliver a competitive product of service?

    Why should customers buy from us?The marketing concept

    choosing and targeting appropriate customers positioning

    your offering interacting with those customers controlling

    50. However, I was able to achieve my targets assigned tome in this period of one month,but there are some roadblocks

    that hinders me in achieving my targets or to excel meabove

    my targets. These are as follows: - 1. Competitors :- In

    security market there are lot many player which are being

    emerged as a competitors and they are giving the tough

  • 8/6/2019 A Study of Consumer Behaviour Towards Equities and Derivatives Market in Udaipur City

    33/38

    competition to the Indiabulls Securities Ltd. The competitors

    products are very attractive to create new customer and grab

    the existing customer. 2. Lack of Knowledge:- Lack of

    knowledge is hamper on our target because by this people are

    not aware about the share market and they are having samemind set and they do not want to change their mind. 3.Conventional Ideas:- People are having conventional idea and

    they do not want to be changed their account because they

    believe in maintaining the relationship whether they are on

    risk cause of they are having their account in local brokers so

    it is also hassle to complete the target.4. Misconception:- In

    the mind of the people they are having misconception because

    they think that the share market is like gamble so the word to

    mouth publicity is going in negative way.5. Time Constraint:-

    Time limit is one of the most hassle in the way of achieving

    the target because time can not be in hand and some times

    customers give the time when we are on other work so it is the

    lost of customer.6. Unknown Location:- We are not familiar

    with the Udaipur city so sometimes we cannot reach out the

    customer and that is why customer are switching their idea to

    open demat account from Indiabulls to another.7.

    Conveyance Problem:- We are out sider in Udaipur so we are

    not having proper conveyance so we cannot reach out to last

    or inside of the city.

    51. 8. Irregularity of Market:- It is also one of the mosthassle by that investors fear to invest although they are having

    good knowledge so we cannot help them out to break their

    thinking. DATA COLLECTION & ANALYSIS 1.INVESTMENT CRITERIA OF CUSTOMERS FIELDS

    one office there is always a conflict between both the

    departments.(Because the work of both departments is same

    information) for Customer is more important as compared to

    After studying all the aspects of the "A Study on significance

    and relevance ofinternal & interactive marketing for financial

    marketing with special reference toINDIA BULLs" including

    the theoretical aspects we can conclude that internal&Interactive is applicable to the Indian stock market but to an

    extend. It can benefit tostock market.

    60. As far as financial marketing is very necessary for Indianstock market is concerned,which is constantly monitored and

    upgraded to pre-empt market failures. It can betermed as good

    but it is not enough to reduce the risk of broking house.

    Broking housesitself have to take actions for reducing the risk

    bears by itself and its customers.As far as Indiabulls securitiesltd. is concerned, its internal & interactive marketing

    forfinancial marketing system is good. The company has

    instituted a specialized internal &interactive marketing for

    financial marketing management team and its systems

    aremanaged centrally to ensure that it can, at all times,

    measure and manage the financialmarketing on online and

    offline transactions on a real-time basis. Marketing dept. of

    theco. is doing well to increase the trading and settlement

    process.As we all are very well aware that stock market is so

    much volatile and unpredictablethat nobody can trace the

    behavior of the market. In this situation risk

    Exiting customers should be provided better

    responseSUGGESTION & Company should focus on the

    age group of 25-40. Interest rate on funds provided to

    investors should be reduced. Awareness should be created

    among the prospective clients. Advertisements should be

    given in the magazines related to Business, Management

    service, Electronics media, and business world or by installing

    stalls in different-different areas etc.services so that by
