1. INTRODUCTION
Relationship between return and risk has been received a significant importance in
realizing the optimal allocation of stocks or optimal investment strategy. More
implicitly, this makes a choice to the investor to take a wise action or prudent inaction
which, in turn, compels the investor to cogitate upon the risk-return embedded
relationship on the asset. In real world, we try to measure the standard deviation as a
proxy or surrogate to risk and investor attitudes toward portfolios depend exclusively
upon expected return and risk (Markowitz, 1959). Since diversified portfolios reduce
the occurrence of unsystematic risk, avoidance of systematic one is of huge challenge to
the investor. As noted that the variance of returns on an asset is a measure of its total
risk and variance can be halved into systematic and unsystematic risk, that is, 2i = β22m
+ 2εi, where β is systematic factor, 2m denotes the systematic risk and 2ε is
unsystematic risk contained portfolio. Thus, it would be relevant to measure the
correlation (rxy) of the two or more stocks to the ratio of their individual standard
deviation (σx, σy and σi). This raises serious concerns to the investor that how much
investment is required in each stock to form an optimal portfolio.
2. RATIONALE BEHIND THE PAPER
On the backdrop of this, simplified logical and elegant or a single-index model helps to
measure the capital asset pricing. Theoretically we can say that capital market theory is
a major extension of the portfolio theory of Markowitz (Sharpe, 1964). Portfolio theory is
really a connotation of how rational investors should build efficient portfolios or
frontiers. On the other hand, capital market theory pre-empts us how assets should be
priced in the capital markets if, indeed, everyone behaved in the way portfolio theory
suggests. So the capital asset pricing model (CAPM) is a relationship amplifying how
assets should be priced in the capital market. The model simplifies the complexity of
real world, tells us that a linear relationship exists between a security‟s (stock) required

rate of return and its beta as investment theory suggests that beta is an approximate
measure of risk for portfolios of securities that have been sufficiently diversified (Singh,
2008). Historically calculated beta and risk premium (Rm-Rf) used to determine the
required rate of return (Ri, or expressed as Ri=Rf +β(Rm-Rf) or Ri=α+bβ +εi) on the
investor‟s portfolio. The question is on whether we adopt the ex-ante or ex-post
measures of beta to arrive at realistic return of the investor.
3. OBJECTIVES AND SCOPE OF THE PAPER
The two-factor or standard CAPM model has several limitations with respect to time
dimension (two-period model), incorporation of less factors and lower explanatory
power of regression coefficient (R2) or lower magnitude of variance explained by the
factors. Multifactor models are of great significance in explaining the variance of the
investor‟s required rate of return or we can posit that more dynamic, realistic nature of
model is employed. This model reiterates the importance of multi-period investing or
financing and operating horizon (independent of each other) as mentioned by Fama
and Miller (1972) with respect to beta (β), size of the firm, price-earning ratio of
individual security to market portfolio or index as a surrogate with respect to inflated
covariance (ρ [P/Ei –P/Em]), risk premium (Rm- Rf), market value of equity to book value
of equity (ME/BE) and dividend yield in excess of risk-free return with respect to tax
imposition or impact [t(di-Rf)]. The model would have an empirical generalization in
the way of replication of Fama and French‟s original work (1992). The index or SNP
CNX NIFTY is considered in our study as market portfolio as it largely covers almost all
the sectors (21) with about 35-36 percent capitalization (NSE, 2009). Our result is
compared with bivariate analysis of βi and size of the firm, βi and (Rm- Rf), βi and (P/E)i,
βi and (BE/ME)i etc.
The first section deals with an extant literature review on the standard CAPM and inter-
temporal CAPM (ICAPM) and then looks at Multifactor models of CAPM. The second

section focuses on methodology and the third section examines results and analysis.
The conclusion part focuses on further scope and improvement of the cross-section of
expected stock returns of CAPM or multifactor models.
4. EXTANT LITERATURE REVIEW
Investment in securities market requires the study of the relationship between risk and
returns (Manjunatha and Mallikarjunappa, 2009). According to Bodie, Kane and Marcus
(2004), “The CAPM presupposes that the only relevant source of risk arises from
variations in stock returns, and therefore a representative (market) portfolio can capture
the entire risk. As a result, individual-stock risk can be defined by the contribution to
overall portfolio risk…” (p. 312). Fama and French (1993, 1996) have shown that beta is
not only explanatory variable in capturing the variance of individual‟s portfolio return,
others are size of the firm, (ME/BE) ratios, or ME and (P/E) ratios. The argument is put
forward by them that multifactor model can improve on the descriptive power of the
index model is that betas seem to vary over the business cycle. One of the multifactor
examples is the seminal work of Chen, Roll and Ross (1986) which shows the
consistency with the empirical study of Merton (1973) and Fama and French (1993).
Inclusion of five-factor in the model of Chen, Roll and Ross (1986), namely, IP or
percentage change in industrial production, EI or percentage change in expected
inflation, UI or percent change in unanticipated inflation, CG or excess return of long-
term corporate bonds over long-term government bonds and GB or excess return o
long-term government bonds over T-bills, estimates the excess returns (Rit, t is the
holding period of portfolio of securities) of the stock in each period on the mentioned
macroeconomic factors by employing multiple regression and the residual variance
captures the firm-specific risk. An alternative approach proposed by Fama and French
(1996) in resuscitating asset pricing anomalies shows that market index (Rm) does play a
role and is expected to capture systematic risk stemming from macroeconomic factors.
The study also elucidates that two firm-characteristic variables chosen, viz., SMB or
International Finance Conference, IIM-Calcutta: Asset Pricing

Kushankur Dey and Debasish Maitra, Fellow Participant, IRMA (Oct-2009)
small minus big2 and HML or high minus low3 because of corporate capitalization (firm
size) and (BE/ME) ratios seem to be predictors on average stock returns, and therefore
risk premiums. Fama and French (1996) propose this model on empirical ground by
arguing that while SMB and HML are not obvious predictors for relevant risk factors,
these may acts as surrogate to more fundamental variables, yet to be identified. For
instance, small sized firms have high returns for low (BE/ME) ratios and conversely,
large sized firms have low returns for high (BE/ME) ratios. This indicates clearly that
with high (BE/ME) ratios, firms are more likely to be in “financial distress” and that
small firms may be sensitive to changes in business conditions, hence, these variables
may capture sensitivity to risk factors in real world.
Sharpe (1964), Linter (1965), and Mossin (1968) have independently developed form of
CAPM. The studies conducted by Black, Jensen, and Scholes (1972), Black (1972, 1993),
Fama and MacBeth (1973), and Terregrossa (2001) have largely been supportive of the
standard form of CAPM or two-factor model. After 1970s, CAPM came under attack as
striking anomalies were reported by Reinganum (1981), Elton and Gruber (1984), Bark
(1981), and Harris et al. (2003). Further studies on the fundamental factors of securities
such as size effect of Banz (1981), book to market equity (BE/ME), earnings-price (E/P)
ratio of Ball (1978) and Basu (1983), and studies of CAPM models by Fama and French
(1992; 1993; 1996; 1998; 2002; 2004 and 2006), Davis, Fama and French (2000) show that
CAPM‟s beta is not a good determinant of the expected return of securities/portfolios.
As their argument is substantiated and put forward by earlier work of Rosenberg and
Guy (1976) in predicting betas as a function of past beta, firm size, debt to asset ratio etc.
They also identify some other variables to help predict betas, namely, variance of
earnings, growth in earnings per share (EPS), dividend yield and variance of cash flow.

Afterwards, studies by Kothari and Shanken (1995), and Kothari, Shanken, and Sloan
(1995) argue in defense of inter-temporal CAPM. Guo and Withtelaw (2006) develop
and estimate an empirical model based on the inter-temporal capital asset pricing
model (ICAPM) that separately identifies the two components of expected returns,
namely, the risk component and the component due to the desire to hedge changes in
investment opportunities. The estimated coefficient of relative risk aversion is positive,
statistically significant, and reasonable in magnitude. They show that expected returns
are driven primarily by the hedge component arguing that omission of this component
is partly responsible for the existing contradiction in results. Theoret and Racicot (2007)
use a new set of instruments based on higher statistical moments to discard the
specification errors that might be present in the Fama and French (1992, 1993, and 1997)
model. They show that the usual instruments perform quite poorly in comparison to
higher moments. They estimate the Fama and French (1992, 1993, and 1997) model on a
sample and show that specification error exists for the loadings of the market premium
and the factor SMB (small minus big) which seem understated. Daniel and Titman
(1997) argue that it is the characteristics rather than the covariance structure of returns
that appear to explain the cross-sectional variation in stock returns. According to study
by Cooper et al. (2008), a firm‟s annual asset growth rate emerges as an economically
and statistically significant predictor of the US stock returns. Liu and Zhang (2008)
show that the growth rate of industrial production is priced risk factor in standard asset
pricing tests. In many specifications, this macroeconomic risk factor explains more than
half of the momentum profits. Their evidence also suggests that the expected growth
risk is priced and that the expected growth risk plays an important role in driving
momentum profits. Studies by Kothari, Shanken and Sloan (1995) show that excess
market returns (Rm-Rf) explains the variation of security or portfolio returns.
While many studies have been conducted on CAPM in the Western countries, there are
a few studies in the Indian context reported by the researchers. Still, there are some
International Finance Conference, IIM-Calcutta: Asset Pricing

Kushankur Dey and Debasish Maitra, Fellow Participant, IRMA (Oct-2009)
empirical studies are conducted to put forward the argument of CAPM as a robust
technique in risk-based asset pricing theory. In case of equity and risk premium
measures, India has earlier followed the U.S. based models. After 1996-97, the exact
measures of risk premium incorporated in standard CAPM is a scholastic contribution
to the financial economics. Studies by Varma (1988), Yalwar (1988), and Srinivasan
(1988) have generally supported the CAPM theory in India. Gupta and Sehgal (1993),

shows significant results as their significance value of F-statistics is more than 0.05. Goodness-of-fit (R2) is very low. When
β and firm size are taken together, R2 value is not able to explain 93.7% of the variation. This it rejects the chances of the
fact that β and size are significant determinant of security returns (percentage). The p-values of slope of β and ln (ME/BE)
are more than 0.05 and F-test indicates that the regression is not fit. R2 value is not able to explain 97.1% of the variation.
Therefore it also rejects the chances that the combination of β and ln (ME/BE) do explain the variation in security returns.
The similar result is also found in the combination of β and (P/Ej-P/Em). The individual p-value of the coefficient is also
more than 0.05 with goodness-of-fit only 3.8%. Same result is also obtained in the combination of β and (d-Rj). This is also
unfit for explaining the variation upto 94.4% which is enough to reject the chances of determining the variation of security
returns. To overcome this limitation all the factors are taken together along with β to get the extent of effects caused by
these variables on security returns. But similar result is observed. The F-significance is much more than 0.05. Though
values of is found to be higher than other cases, but it is due to increased number of independent variables. None of the
slopes is having with P-value lower than 0.05. So, this is also unfit to explain the variation on security returns.
Cross-Sectional Analysis: Year wise Cross Sectional Regression Results of Percentage Returns-Case of
Combination of β and Firm-specific Factors
Capturing the explained variation on individual securities‟ rate of rerun on the basis of averaging of 10 years does not
prove significant. In order to see the trends of significance over the years, year wise regression is run to test the influence
of independent variables on security‟s return. But not impressive result is observed. Similar technique using combination
of β, size, ln (ME/BE), (P/Ej-P/Em), (d-Rj) and also all the variables together are used to get the influence of these
variables on logarithmic security returns. The slopes of every independent variable come with p-value more than 0.05.
International Finance Conference, IIM-Calcutta: Asset Pricing

But, it is also evident from the Table-2 (Appendix-I) that size is trying to capture the variation. The R2 is ranging from 2%
to 12% which does not suffice to explain the variation. In all the cases the F-significance is much more than 0.05.
Cross-Sectional Analysis: Year wise Cross Sectional Regression Results of Log Returns-Case of Combination
of β and Firm-specific Factors
The study has also been conducted by using combination of β, size, ln (ME/BE), (P/Ej-P/Em), (d-Rj) and also all the
variables together to get the influence of these variables on logarithmic security returns. But again similar output is
obtained. The slopes of every independent variable come with p-value more than 0.05. But, it is also evident from the
Table-3 (Appendix-II) that size is not able to capture the variation as opposed to regression results of percentage returns
on security. The R2 is ranging from 1.9% to 23% which does not suffice to explain the variation. In all the cases the F-
significance is much more than 0.05.

7. SUMMARY AND CONCLUSION
The present study has not only entailed different combination of two factors but also
included multi -factors together to test the CAPM. β and size , β and ln (ME/BE), β
and (P/Ej-P/Em), β and (d-Rj) and β, size, ln (ME/BE), (P/Ej-P/Em), (d-Rj) together are
used on Indian stock market (S&P CNX NIFTY). The overall summary of the findings
are as follows:
The intercept is coming significantly different from zero as its p-value is more
than 0.05. But over all F-significance is also higher than 0.05 which rejects the
validity of the model. The result shows that β and size β and ln (ME/BE), β and
(P/Ej-P/Em), β and (d-Rj) and β, size, ln (ME/BE), (P/Ej-P/Em), (d-Rj) together
are not capable enough to explain the variation in both the cases of percentage
security return and log return when average of every parameters are used.
Again the result also shows that β and size β and ln (ME/BE), β and (P/Ej-P/Em),
βi and (dj-Rj) and βi, size, ln(ME/BE), (P/Ej-P/Em), (dj-Rj) together are not
significantly capturing the variation both in the cases of percentage of returns
and log returns when individual year (1999-00 to 2008-09) is considered.
Hence, it is ostensible from the study that both the model rejects the alternative
hypothesis saying that Multifactor CAPM is better to capture variation of the investors
the required rate of return and is more robust than the two- factor CAPM. Results of
our study partially corroborate to the study of Fama and French (1992,
1993,1996,1998,2003 and 2004) and Manjunatha and Malikajunappa (2009).
On the posterity of financial maelstrom in continued globalised economy, serious
concern raises on the utility of the extended CAPM to unfold the asset-pricing
anomalies. “Data snooping” which is noted by Merton and put forward the argument
that researchers many a times try to identify the best explanatory variable to predict
and explain maximum variance of the investor‟s portfolio return or individual
security‟s required rate of return.
Few caveats revealed in this paper could be that beta, which we have taken directly
from the market or historical beta instead of doing estimation and avoidance of
employing time-series regression and daily return (instead of 365 days average return)
or to capture the lag effect on the combination of parameters on the dependent variable
or individual securities and portfolio return. Another would be incorporation of equity
risk premium, which often is employed in bivariate analysis (Manjunatha and
International Finance Conference, IIM-Calcutta: Asset Pricing
Page 18 of 26
Kushankur Dey and Debasish Maitra, Fellow Participant, IRMA (Oct-2009)
Mallikarjunappa, 2009). In effect, investor‟s required rate of return would pose a threat
on whether the model would have a better fit in explanation or two-factor model would
have a better explanatory power. Result shows that multi-factor model has relatively a
better fit over the two-factor model, but in sense we cannot say that both the model
would predicate the subject, that is, investor‟s return in a better and elegant way.
Hence, should we continue with the insignificant test-result to unravel the riddle and
ramifications of CAPM puzzle in a significant way?
