‘waiting’ for a reward. It involves the commitment of resources which have been
saved or put away from current consumption in the hope that some benefits will
accrue in future. The term ‘Investment’ does not appear to be as simple as it has been
defined. Investment has been further categorized by financial experts and economists.
It has also often been confused with the term speculation. The following discussion

Measurement of Returns
different financial assets. The most important characteristics of financial assets are
the size and variability of their future returns. Since the return on income varies,
various statistical techniques are used to measure it. Over the years, may methods
were adopted for quantifying returns. These are now categorized as traditional and
oldest technique of measurement. Yield can be both expected or estimated and actual

Amount Invested
The yield that is calculated is for a particular period to find out the return on
the amount that is invested. For example, the annual yield on the Unit Trust
The ‘holding period yield’ is one of the new techniques in measuring returns.
The traditional methods did not provide a satisfactory returns measure. Some of the
gaps that were identified were: (a) that the traditional method does not distinguish
between divided and earnings portion that the traditional method does not distinguish
between divided and earnings portion that the company retains (Earnings Yield
Method), (b) Dividend Yield Method ignores the possibility of price appreciation on
retained earnings. It is useful only for those shareholders who wish to retain shares
always and are not interested in selling and anticipate that dividends are not going to
change; (c) the yield to maturity is useful only to those bond holders who will hold it
to maturity. All investors may not hold bonds till maturity for obvious reasons.
These methods are thus known to serve a limited purpose only. The better method
measures return through the holding period yield. This measure appears more rational
and clearly defined. It serves two purposes: (a) It measures that total return per rupee

A look at this formula shows that the Holding Period Yield (HPY) considers
everything the investor receives over the specified period during which the asset is
held relative to what was originally invested in the assets. It also considers all income
payments; and positive and negative capital changes during the period. These are
then measured relative to the original investment in rupees. The HPY also measures
past receipts of payments as well as for an unknown future. It is useful for comparing

Measure of Dispersion
investment. The greater the potential dispersion, the greater the risk. One of the
simplest methods in calculating dispersion is range. The range, however, has limited
importance. It is useful when there are small samples. It loses its effectiveness when
the number of values in a sample increases. The best and most effective method to
find out how the data scattered around a frequency distribution is to use the standard
deviation method. This method is related to the mean deviation and implies in this
case the means as a point of reference from which deviation occurs. The standard
deviation is based on mean and it cannot show any result without first finding out the
deviation. In other words, standard deviation is the square root of the variance. This
standard deviation and variance are considered equivalent to each other as measures
of risk. For a security analyst they help in depicting dispersion of HPYs around HPY.
There are 22 stock exchanges in India, the first being the Bombay Stock
Exchange (BSE), which began formal trading in 1875, making it one of the oldest in
Asia. Over the last few years, there has been a rapid change in the Indian securities

still in place. A primary auction market for Government securities has been created
and a primary dealer system was introduced in 1995. There are six authorized primary
dealers. Currently, there are 31 mutual funds, out of which 21 are in the private
sector. Mutual funds were opened to the private sector in 1992. Earlier, in 1987, banks
were allowed to enter this business, breaking the monopoly of the Unit Trust of India
(UTI), which maintains a dominant position. Before 1992, many factors obstructed
the expansion of equity trading. Fresh capital issues were controlled through the
Capital Issues Control Act. Trading practices were not transparent, and there was a
protection, several measures were enacted to improve the fairness of the capital
market. ‘The Securities and Exchange Board of India (SEBI) was established in
1988’. Despite the rules it set, problems continued to exist, including those relating to
disclosure criteria, lack of Brokers, capital adequacy, and poor regulation of merchant
bankers and underwriters. There have been significant reforms in the regulation of the
securities market since 1992 in conjunction with overall economic and financial
reforms. In 1992, the SEBI Act was enacted giving SEBI statutory status as an apex
of market operations. India has seen a tremendous change in the secondary market for
equity. Its equity market will most likely be comparable with the world’s most
advanced secondary markets within a year or two. The key ingredients that underlie

Before 1995, markets in India used open outcry, a trading process in which traders
shouted and hand signaled from within a pit. One major policy initiated by SEBI from
1993 involved the shift of all exchanges to screen-based trading, motivated primarily
by the need for greater transparency. The first exchange to be based on an open
electronic limit order book was the National Stock Exchange (NSE), which started
trading debt instruments in June 1994 and equity in November 1994. In March 1995,
BSE shifted from open outcry to a limit order book market. Currently, 17 of India’s
stock exchanges have adopted open electronic limit order. Before 1994, India’s stock

PRIMARY MARKET
Since 1991/92, the primary market has grown fast as a result of the removal
imposed by the Capital Issues Control Act. In 1991/92, Rs62.15 billion was raised in
the primary market. This figure rose to Rs276.21 billion in 1994/95. Since 1995/1996,
however, smaller amounts have been raised due to the overall downtrend in the
market and tighter entry barriers introduced by SEBI for investor protection .SEBI has
taken several measures to improve the integrity of the secondary market. Legislative
adequacy norms have been prescribed and are being enforced. A mark-to-market
margin and intraday trading limit have also been imposed. Further, the stock
exchanges have put in place circuit breakers, which are applied in times of excessive
volatility. The disclosure of short sales and long purchases is now required at the end
of the day to reduce price volatility and further enhance the integrity of the secondary
market.

The securities market comprises two segments- primary market (new issues,

FINDINGS
[66]
After the data is analyzed the following facts have been observed.
2005: From risk-return analysis of 2005, it is found that risk of all companies are
higher than their returns, but in comparison returns of ABB and BHARTHI
AIRTEL has higher, where as CIPLA and WIPRO has negative returns.

year most of the companies has negative returns. Satyam in particular has
RELIANCE industries. In this year total software industry is not doing well
because of financial crisis in USA, followed by high inflation rate. In this year
2009: From the analysis, total software industry having started recovering, so their
stocks were going along with their risk. This year was good as all the
companies are doing well. TATA Motors is also another stock which is
performing well, this is due to launch of TATA NANO (world’s cheapest car)
Suggestions
[67]
After observing the facts found out after the analysis and interpretations the
1. When there is more risk, the return will also be highs but this does not hold in all

the stock markets. Therefore it is not advisable to invest at the time of crisis.

the risk of investment. Therefore it is not advisable to invest when the markets are
very volatile.
5. Always it is felt that market position never stays for a long time. In this opinion
Bullish and Bearish markets end after some time. Therefore one can invest the
time of Bearish and soon after they reach bullish trend they can sell them off.
CONCLUSION
[68]
The present project work has been undertaken to study the risk-return
relationship of individual securities as well as nifty index to observe whether the stock
prices have any relationship with risk and return. As this project work is done by
studying 15 individual stocks of nifty and nifty index, there is much scope for the

these fluctuations and the market has become so volatile. In this situation investors
should be very careful. The firm which is dealing the trading of share market should
