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).
In 1887, they formally established in Bombay, the "Native Share and Stock Brokers'
Association" (which is alternatively known as "The Stock Exchange"). 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.
Thus in the same way, gradually with the passage of time number of exchanges were increased and
at currently it reached to the figure of 24 stock exchanges .

Settlement of trades
Funds or Securities
A person holding assets (Securities/Funds), either to meet his liquidity needs or to reshuffle his
holdings in response to changes in his perception about risk and return of the assets, decides to buy
or sell the securities. He selects a broker and instructs him to place buy/sell order on an exchange.
The order is converted to a trade as soon as it finds a matching sell/buy order. At the end of the trade
cycle, the trades are netted to determine the obligations of the trading member’s securities/funds as
per settlement cycle. Buyer/seller delivers funds/ securities and receives securities/funds and
acquires ownership of the securities.
A securities transaction cycle is presented above. Just because of this Transaction cycle, the whole
business of Securities and Stock Broking has emerged. And as an extension of stock broking, the
business of Online Stock broking/ Online Trading/ E-Broking has emerged.
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 would conveniently assemble and
transact business. In 1887, they formally established in Bombay, the "Native Share and Stock
Brokers' Association" (which is alternatively known as “The Stock Exchange "). 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

Funny, that actually idea was first time used by a company making Beer called "WIT beer"
to help its shareholders 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 a offshoot of Charles
Schwab & Co called eSchwab which is used by millions of people in USA. Lot of NRI's i know playing
US stock market even when they come to India for holidays via website of Schwab.
There are other serious players like E*TRADE, DATEK online etc. All this companies ask you to
start account with US $5000 and you can buy and sell stock using these funds. They also issue
you a check book which you can use to make payments from this account. Or use their ATM card
to withdraw cash from your stock trading account.
Today practically 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.
In five years of its existence in India, online broking has grown to account for a tenth of the total
trading volumes. If the numbers are considered for only the retail segments, the growth is starker.
Almost half of the Rs 5,000 crore-6,000 crore daily market volumes on the NSE are accounted for by
non-retail entities such as foreign institutional investors, domestic institutions, mutual funds and
8
[Type text]
arbitrage traders. Institutions aren't online customers anyway. Of the rest of the retail segment,
current estimates suggest that online broking reach is close to 30 per cent.
As of September this year, there were 11.7 lakh Internet trading accounts registered with the NSE, of
which roughly 9.5 lakh are unique users. It's still a small proportion of the estimated 3 crore Internet
users in the country. As more surfers take to trading online, analysts expect their number to keep
doubling every year until 30-40 per cent of India's overall trades are done online, as is the case in
some mature Internet markets like South Korea's.
The Internet's effect here has more to do with the bandwidth it has created for both brokers and
clients. Banga, director of India bulls offers an example. "Traders from Ajmer use our online platform.
It would otherwise have been prohibitively loss-making to open a branch there." Thanks to the new
channel, volumes are growing faster in the non-metros, where transparency is low in offline
trading. "These customers were made to pay higher charges by small brokers, since they weren't
aware of the market rates," says Vikas Shankar of Sharekhan.com. That is one of the reasons why
more than 60 per cent of Share khan’s online trading turnover comes from non-metros.
With the liberalization of the Indian economy, it was found inevitable to lift the Indian stock market
trading system on par with the international standards. On the basis of the recommendations of high-
powered Pherwani Committee, the National Stock Exchange was incorporated in 1992 by
Industrial Development Bank of India, Industrial Credit, and Investment Corporation of India,
Industrial Finance Corporation of India, all Insurance Corporations, selected commercial banks and
others.
Wholesale debt market operations are similar to money market operations - institutions and
corporate bodies enter into high value transactions in financial instruments such as
government securities, treasury bills, public sector unit bonds, commercial paper, certificate of
deposit, etc.

(b) Participants.
Recognized members of NSE are called trading members who trade on behalf of themselves and
their clients. Participants include trading members and large players like banks who take direct
settlement responsibility.
Trading at NSE takes place through a fully automated screen-based trading mechanism, which
adopts the principle of an order-driven market. Trading members can stay at their offices 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 the screen. When the prices match the transaction will
be completed and a confirmation slip will be printed at the office of the trading member.

investors for trading in securities.

Aggressive promotional strategies by close competitors may hamper Share Khan’s acceptance

Lack of sufficient branch-offices for speedy delivery of services.
Other players are providing margin funds to investors on easy terms where as there is no such
facility in share khan.
More and more players are venturing into this domain which can further reduce the earnings of
Share Khan.
ABSTRACT
Real Estate:
The Indian economy is steadily moving forward on its path to prosperity with economic development
being the focal point of the progress. In the post liberalization era, India has attracted huge quantum
of foreign direct investment on account of its excellent economic performance and recently real estate
sector has also been deregulated and liberalized. Today India is seen as a prime destination for
investment by overseas investors across the board. India's favorable demographic and economic
scenario makes it an attractive destination for the real estate investors.
17
[Type text]
Today, the face of Indian retail sector is changing. The traditional stores are being replaced by retail
chains, shopping centers, supermarkets and hypermarkets. From the beginning of 2006, the
Government has allowed foreign direct investment in retailing, with 51 percent participation. The
retailing sector is projected to reach US$ 23 billion by 2010. This growth in the retail sector will
inevitably provide strong impetus to the retail real estate.
Objectives
Real estate is a business, not a profession. Real estate is sometimes inaccurately spoken of as a
profession, but it is essentially a business. A profession applies science, art or learning to the use of
others, the profit to the professor or person applying it being incidental; whereas a business is
engaged in primarily for profit, and the profit is to the one engaging in the business.
A profession implies professed attainment in special knowledge. A person may engage in business
with or without special knowledge and no one else is concerned with the question whether he has any
knowledge of the business, because no one else is affected by the result. If he is successful the
rewards are his; if he fails he bears the loss. But let him attempt to practice a profession and, if he be
unskillful, others are directly affected, and the fact that his reward is diminished thereby is merely
incidental to the fact that others suffer.
Ethics of the business — But whether real estate be a business or a profession has no connection at
all with the body of ethics governing it.
Every business can be conducted upon a plane ethically as high as the ideals of any profession, and
the men who have been conspicuously successful in the real estate business have attained success
because they have applied to their business the highest ideals of commercial fair dealing. This does
not mean that there is any ethical requirement for the seller or the purchaser to give away anything
18
[Type text]
which belongs to him, or for either one to disclose to the other his necessity for selling or his
requirements for buying; but the bargain having been made, it is absolutely necessary that it be lived
up to by both parties, according to its intent; and, if there be any doubt of the intent of the bargain as it
is expressed in writing, that the spirit of the transaction be carried out rather than that the catch words
of a written instrument should govern. Cases are frequent of men who to their own detriment perform
the thing which they have promised to do although not legally obligated, and the bigger and more
successful the man who makes the promise the more surely will it be carried out. Important
obligations are often incurred upon the mere promise of a well-known man to sell an important piece
of property at a definite price, although no legal and enforceable obligation exist; and the promise is
always redeemed if it is made by a man who knows the business, and it is redeemed not merely from
altruistic motives, but also for purely business reasons.
Divisions of the business — The principal divisions of the real estate business are investment,
operation and agency. These differ from one another according to the aims of the persons engaging
in them and the methods by which those persons expect to make their gains. To conduct either of the
first two divisions of the business, investment or operation, actual money capital is required. The most
important capital in the agency business is the good will of its customers, and that can be husbanded,
increased and made very valuable.
Real estate, property and real property defined.—Real estate is a form of property. Property is the
right to possess and use. Real property, a technical legal word, is the right to possess and use land
for a time which may last for a life or lives or longer. All other property is, in the eyes of the law,
personal property. A lease for 999 years, which is not measured by any life, but which must expire at
a definite time, is less in term of time, in the eyes of the law, than a conveyance of a piece of land, the
duration of which is measured by a life or by several lives.
When we speak of real property we use the words in their technical legal sense. When we speak of
real estate as a commodity and as a business, it embraces the various parts of the business which
engage the attention of those who follow it as a vocation, and includes interests which in the eye of
the law are not real property, as for example, leases, mortgages, etc.
Every business has in view finally, commercial transactions resulting in the transfer of property of
some kind; so in our study of the real estate business we have in mind the transfer of title to real
property, and among the various subjects we shall consider, are the interests which there may be in
land, limitations on ownership, the making of a contract, the conveyances used, the liens which may
affect a piece of property—all of which have an important relation to a final commercial transaction,
the transfer of title to real property.

global economy would be up. Despite the developments the analysts believe that the global economy
is not yet out of the woods. The unemployment rate in the developed countries is continuously on the
ascent which is not a very good sign.
INDIAN PERSPECTIVE:
24
[Type text]
The scene for India is not as ominous as the rest of the world due a variety of reasons the most
important being the relatively strong domestic demand & the burgeoning Indian middle class. India's
GDP growth in 2008-09 was one of the highest in the world and reflected the resilience of the
country's growth impulses to a severe external shock as well as the impact of the policy response to
contain the adverse effects of the global economic crisis on domestic growth. Even in the recently
concluded meeting of the 100 CEOS & the Finance Minister, the outlook for the Indian economy has
been bullish even though the growth rate for the current fiscal quarter was expected to drop to 6%,
the annual growth rate in GDP is expected to be at an optimistic 9%.
AGRICULTURE
Even though the agriculture sector saw a bounce back in the last quarter of 2008-09 the current
monsoon conditions are threatening the overall recovery of the economy. Delayed as well as
inadequate southwest monsoon has put the kharif crops in jeopardy which accounts for 57% of the
total agricultural produce. The food management is a big issue facing the country that needs to be
tackled & which might act as a drag on the overall economic growth.
INDUSTRIAL
The industries showed a good growth in July 2008, but registered a sharp decline in the second half
of the year with negative growth in December 2008 & March 2009. The infusion of liquidity in order to
kick start the economy has its effect on the IIP with some of the sectors showing a phenomenal
growth. The electricity sector recorded an appreciable increase whereas the mining & manufacturing
related to food products has shown a decline.
INFRASTRUCTURE
The core infrastructure sector grew by a good 4.8% vis-a-vis the 3.5% growth shown in the
corresponding sectors for the previous year. The sectors which have shown a growth include the
cement, coal & electricity. This augurs well for India in the long run as the fiscal stimulus would
enable to complete the twin job of putting the economy back on the path of recovery coupled with the
development of the infrastructure in India which has been a laggard for a long time.
MONETARY CONDITIONS:
The contractionary policy that the RBI has adopted to control the inflation would affect the real estate
sector.

MACROECONOMIC OUTLOOK
The macroeconomic outlook shown by the various global agencies indicates that there is going to be
recessionary pressures that would remain prevalent throughout 2009 even though there are some
indicators that are showing positive signs. The IMF has revised the growth projection for India from
4.5% to 5.4% for the year 2009 even though the finance minister remains optimistic of enjoying a 9%
growth.
The various surveys that were done by Dun & Bradstreet, CII & NCAER indicate that there would
definitely be a change in the business sentiment with the gradual return to optimism for the business.
This business optimism is also seen through the huge rally that has been observed on the BSE &
NSE.

INDUSTRY COMPETITORS
Rivalries naturally develop between companies competing in the same market. Competitors use
means such as advertising, introducing new products, more attractive customer service and
warranties, and price competition to enhance their standing and market share in a specific industry.
To Porter, the intensity of this rivalry is the result of factors like equally balanced companies, slow
growth within an industry, high fixed costs, lack of product differentiation, overcapacity and price-
cutting, diverse competitors, high stakes investment, and the high risk of industry exit. There are also
market entry barriers.
Substitute products are the natural result of industry competition, but they place a limit on profitability
within the industry. A substitute product involves the search for a product that can do the same
function as the product the industry already produces. Porter uses the example of security brokers,
who increasingly face substitutes in the form of real estate, money-market funds, and insurance
Substitute products take on added importance as their availability increases.
Suppliers have a great deal of influence over an industry as they affect price increases and product
quality. A supplier group exerts even more power over an industry if it is dominated by a few
companies there are no substitute products, the industry is not an important consumer for the
suppliers, their product is essential to the industry, the supplier differs costs, and forward integration
potential of the supplier group exists. Labor supply can also influence the position of the suppliers.
These factors are generally out of the control of the industry or company but strategy can alter the
power of suppliers.
The buyer's power is significant in that buyers can force prices down, demand higher quality products
or services, and, in essence, play competitors against one another, all resulting in potential loss of
industry profits. Buyers exercise more power when they are large-volume buyers, the product is a
significant aspect of the buyer's costs or purchases, the products are standard within an industry,
there are few changing or switching costs, the buyers earn low profits, potential for backward
integration of the buyer group exists, the product is not essential to the buyer's product, and the buyer
has full disclosure about supply, demand, prices, and costs. The bargaining position of buyers
changes with time and a company's (and industry's) competitive strategy.
POTENTIAL ENTRANTS
31
[Type text]
Threats of new entrants into an industry depend largely on barriers to entry. Porter identifies six major
barriers to entry:
Economies of scale, or decline in unit costs of the product, which force the entrant to enter on
a large scale and risk a strong reaction from firms already in the industry, or accepting a
disadvantage of costs if entering on a small scale.
Product differentiation, or brand identification and customer loyalty.
Capital requirements for entry; the investment of large capital, after all, presents a significant
risk.
Switching costs, or the cost the buyer has to absorb to switch from one supplier to another.
Access to distribution channels. New entrants have to establish their distribution in a market
with established distribution channels to secure a space for their product.
Cost disadvantages independent of scale, whereby established companies already have
product technology, access to raw materials, favorable sites, advantages in the form
government subsidies, and experience.
PEST analysis of any industry sector investigates the important factors that are affecting the industry
and influencing the companies operating in that sector. PEST is an acronym for political, economic,
social and technological analysis.
Political factors include government policies relating to the industry, tax policies, laws and regulations,
trade restrictions and tariffs etc.
The economic factors relate to changes in the wider economy such as economic growth, interest
rates, exchange rates and inflation rate, etc.
Social factors often look at the cultural aspects and include health consciousness, population growth
rate, age distribution, changes in tastes and buying patterns, etc.
The technological factors relate to the application of new inventions and ideas such as R&D activity,
automation, technology incentives and the rate of technological change.
The PEST Analysis is a perfect tool for managers and policy makers; helping them in analyzing the
forces that are driving their industry and how these factors will influence their businesses and the
whole industry in general. Our product also presents a brief profile of the industry comprising of
current market, competition in it and future prospects of that sector.

RATIO ANALYSIS
The analysis of financial statements aims to study the relationship amongst various factors in a
business as disclosed in the financial statements for particular period trend of these factors can be
studied through the examination of such financial statements over a period of time. The study can be
done from different angles for a number of different end users of the financial data of a company.
These end users may include shareholders, creditors, management, government and the financial
analyst. The different end users are interested in different information with different objective. For
example a shareholder is interested in the yield and safety of his capital invested in the company. His
main concern is with the profitability and distribution of dividend apart from enhancement of the net
worth. Creditors view the company’s financial data from the judging its repayment capacity and ability
of services the debt; where as a short-term creditor is interested in the company’s liquid position,
which he estimates by efficient fund and generation of competing profitability. In this way end users
strive to analyses the data to fulfill their own respective objectives.
The most easy way to carry on such analysis is way of ratios, which help in reading the relationship
between factors at a sight, because interpretation of financial data shown in absolute figures
becomes difficult. To study the changes over the years in the financial data is rendered easy by the
use of ratio analysis of financial data. Ratio measure the relationship between two figures and which
two figures and which two figures are compared with each other depends upon the objective of
comparison.
Debt-Equity Ratio:-
This ratio is only another form of proprietary ratio and establishes relationship between the outside
long-term liabilities and owner’s funds. It shows the proportion of long-term External Equities and
Internal Equities.

Comment:-
Debt-Equity ratio shows the proportion of debt and equity used by the company in its financial
structure. The above graph shows that in the financial year 2007 the debt-equity ratio of UNITECH
and DLF is 3.1 and 7.54 respectively, which shows that DLF is using more debt in its financial

[Type text]
structure as compare to the UNITECH in proportion to shareholders funds. In the financial year 2008
and 2009 the UNITECH is using more debt in its financial structure as compare to DLF in proportion
to shareholders funds. A wise mix of debt and equity can increase the return on equity for two
reasons:
But excessive use of debt financing is risky. A company has a legal obligation to make interest
payments and to repay the principle at the due dates. If a company takes on so much debt that it
becomes unable to make the required interest and principal disbursements on time. The ratio
indicates the extent of use of financial leverage. A high debt-to-equity ratio indicates aggressive use
of leverage, and a highly leveraged company is more risky for creditors. A low ratio on the other hand,
suggests that the company is making little use of leverage and is too conservative. Here we can say
in 2007 DLF had a very high ratio hence DLF was a more risky firms for creditors. And at the time of
recession DLF decided to reduce their risk and they started paying their debts by selling their assets
and revenues. On the other hand in 2008 Unitech had a high debt-to-equity ratio and soon they
realize the risk and they also reduced their debt-to-equity ratio in 2009.
Current Ratio:-
This most widely used ratio shows the proportion of current assets to current liability. It is also known
as ‘Working Capital Ratio’ as it is a measure of working capital available at a particular time. The ratio
is obtained by dividing current assets by the current liabilities.

The current ratio indicates the current assets and liabilities that company is using. Above graph
shows that DLF is using more current assents as compare to the UNITECH in proportion to the
current liabilities in the financial years 2007, 2008 and 2009. It is widely used indicator of a company’s
ability to pay its debts in short-term. It shows the amount of current assets a company has per rupee
of current liabilities. Here ‘current assets’ include loan and advances and ‘current liabilities’ include
provisions.
The increase in DLF current ratio means that in 2009 the company had more current assets to meet
its current liabilities. This is the good news for the company’s short- term creditors. So we can say
that DLF is in more strong position to cover it’s liabilities.
Debtors’ Ratio:-
The ratio shows the number of days taken to collect the dues of credit sales. It shows the efficiency or
otherwise of the collection policy of the enterprise.

Comment:-
The interest coverage ratio indicates the ability of the company to use the debt in its financial
structure. The ability of the company to meet interest payment arising from the debt. In the year 2007
the DLF ratio is lower because in that year co. has used more debt as compare to the shareholders
funds. The graph shows that the ability of interest payment of DLF is higher because of the earnings
of the company as compare to the UNITECH. This is the measure of the protection available to
creditors or payment of interest charges by the company. The ratio shows whether the company has
sufficient income to cover its interest requirements by a wide margin. The interest coverage ratio is
computed by dividing profit before interest and tax by the interest expenses. A high ratio implies
adequate safety for payment of interest even if there were to be a drop in the company’s earnings.
It is an index of profitability of business and is obtained by comparing net profit with capital employed.
The ratio is normally expressed in the percentage.

Technical Analysis
Technical analysis is a security analysis technique that claims the ability to forecast the future
direction of prices through the study of past market data, primarily price and volume. In its purest
form, technical analysis considers only the actual price and volume behavior of the market or
instrument. Technical analysts, sometimes called "chartists", may employ models and trading rules
based on price and volume transformations, such as the relative strength index, moving averages,
regressions, inter market and intra-market price correlations, cycles or, classically, through
recognition of chart patterns.
Technical analysis stands in distinction to fundamental analysis. Technical analysis "ignores" the
actual nature of the company, market, currency or commodity and is based solely on "the charts," that
is to say price and volume information, whereas fundamental analysis does look at the actual facts of
the company, market, currency or commodity. For example, any large brokerage, trading group, or
financial institution will typically have both a technical analysis and fundamental analysis team.
Just as there are many investment styles on the fundamental side, there are also many different
types of technical traders. Some rely on chart patterns; others use technical indicators and oscillators,
and most use some combination of the two. In any case, technical analysts' exclusive use of historical
50
[Type text]
price and volume data is what separates them from their fundamental counterparts. Unlike
fundamental analysts, technical analysts don't care whether a stock is undervalued - the only thing
that matters is a security's past trading data and what information this data can provide about where
the security might move in the future.
