This project report is the result of my 8 weeks of the training. Summer internship is an integral

part of the PGDM course, which the student has to undergo and it aims at providing a first hand

experience of the company to the student.

This practical experience helps the students to view the real business closely and correlate the

theoretical concepts better. I am really fortunate for getting an opportunity to have this learning

experience with Religare Securities Ltd

The project assigned to me was EQUITY AND FINANCIAL COMPARISION OF

RELIGARE SECURITIES LTD. FROM OTHER DIPOSITORY PARTICIPANTS.

I found that practical application of various concepts is more interesting than theoretical

learning.

The name is paired with the symbol of a four-leaf clover , a rare mutation of the common three-

leaf clover. Traditionally, it is considered good fortune to find a four leaf clover as there is only

one four-leaf clover for every 10,000 three-leaf clovers found.Each leaf of the four-leaf clover

has a special meaning in the sphere of Religare.

The first leaf of the clover represents Hope. The aspirations to succeed. The dream of

becoming. Of new possibilities. It is the beginning of every step and the foundations on

which a person reaches for the stars.

The second leaf of the clover represents Trust. The ability to place ones own faith in

another. To have a relationship as partners in a team. To accomplish a given goal with the

balance that brings satisfaction to all not in the binding but in the bond that is built.

The third leaf of the clover represents Care. The secret ingredient that is the cement in every

relationship. The truth of feeling that underlines sincerity and the triumph of diligence in every

aspect. From it springs true warmth of service and the ability to adapt to evolving environments

with consideration to all.


42/195

The fourth and final leaf of the clover represents Good Fortune. Signifying that rare

ability to meld opportunity and planning with circumstance to generate those often looked

for remunerative moments of success.

Hope. Trust. Care. Good fortune. All elements perfectly combine in the emblematic and

rare, four-leaf clover to visually symbolize the values that bind together and form the core

of the Religare vision.

Strength

Religare is one of the fastest growing share trading company.

It has a great brand name of Ranbaxy Group associated with it for promoting its product.

The Religare is the only online share trading company that gives interest on cash margin.

Religare offer trade reward also which is a unique feature of Religare.

Customer will get a zero balance saving account in ICICI bank after opening online

demat account In Religare.

Religare provide lifetime free demat account, i.e. no annual maintenance charges.

Religare also provide 20 times exposure on intraday trading.


53/195

The employees of the company are quiet enthusiastic about the betterment of the

company.

The company gives utmost respect to customer service.

The company has a good relation with its channel partner.

Weakness

The company does not have a permanent online office in Varanasi so many people might

feel hesitation in investing in Religare.

At the time of account opening its margin money of Rs. 5000 is one of the factor which

sometime discourages customers to go for it while its competitors does not require any

margin money at the time of opening demat account.

Opportunities


54/195

The number of people of Varanasi who have knowledge about share trading is quiet less

so if they can be taught about the benefits of investing Religare then the company can

cover a big revenue.

People who have knowledge about share trading are not willing to invest due to the loss

beard by them by investing in wrong shares at the wrong time, so if these people can be

motivated then the company can earn big revenue.

Since most of the broking houses have been established in Varanasi (City area) so their

most of the customers belongs to city only. The rural area is untouched area where a lot

of potential is available for these kinds of broking houses. This area is called virgin area.

So if Religare target these areas so the company can create a number of new customers

and also earn big revenue.

Threats


55/195

Apart from Religare securities limited, other broking houses have permanent office in

Varanasi so people may be more attracted in investing in other company's broking

houses.

Religare has been launched before some times in Varanasi. The other broking houses

have been established before Religare, so they have more customers than Religare. Also

they have made the market concentrated so Religare may find difficulties in making new

customers.

Sensex:

It is an index that represents the direction of the companies that are traded on the Bombay Stock

Exchange, BSE. It captures the increase or decrease in prices of stocks of companies that it

comprises.

Currently, all the 30 stocks that make up the Sensex have reached a value of 15,355 points.

These companies represent the myriad sectors of the Indian economy. A few of these companies

and the sector they represent are: ACC (cement), Bajaj Auto, Tata Motors, Maruti (automobile),

Infosys, Wipro, TCS (information technology), ONGC, Reliance (oil & gas), ITC, HLL (fast

moving consumer goods) etc.

Each company has a weight assigned to it. Companies like Reliance, Infosys, and HLL have

higher weightages compared to others like HDFC, Wipro, or a BHEL.

The increase or decrease in Sensex, is the effect of a corresponding increase or decrease in the

stock market price of these 30 companies. Sensex is the benchmark that represents Indian equity

markets globally.


65/195

It is the Sensex's counterpart on the National Stock Exchange(NSE).

The only difference between the two indices (the Sensex and Nifty) is that the Nifty comprises

of 50 companies and hence is more broad-based than the Sensex. The Nifty 50 or the S&P CNX

Nifty as the index is officially called has all the 30 Sensex stocks.

The NSE Nifty functions exactly the way as the BSE Sensex does.


66/195

What is Rolling/Normal Settlement?

Under rolling settlement all open positions at the end of the day mandatorily result in payment/

delivery n days later. Currently trades in rolling settlement are settled on T+2 basis where T is

the trade day.


67/195

For example: A trade executed on Monday is mandatorily settled by Wednesday (Considering

two working days from the trade day). The funds and securities pay-in and pay-out are carried

out on T+2 days.

A tabular representation of the settlement cycle for rolling set-tlement is given below:


68/195

Order book: The order book shows the complete list of orders placed for a particular day. Once

the order gets executed they go into the trade book.

Open position: The position which is not yet closed. E.g. when you buy 1 share and have not

yet sold it then your open position is 1 and when the share gets sold than the position stands nil.

Exposure: Exposure is x times the cash deposited. Suppose the exposure is 6 times, this means

that if the cash deposited is Rs 1000, the total exposure would be Rs. 6000.

Gross Allocated Exposure: It is the virtual amount spent. When order is placed, the quantity

multiplied by price of each share will be deducted from the gross exposure available.

Net used exposure: It is the real amount spent. When the order gets traded, the quantity

multiplied by price at which the order gets traded will be deducted from the net exposure

available.

Trade log- Trade Log is the detail of transactions done by a client on a particular day


69/195

Futures calculator: The futures Calculator helps to calculate the Fair Value of a particular

Future Contract given the spot price, expiry date, interest rate and dividend yield.

Obligation: The stock for which the delivery has not been received yet, are reflected in the

Obligation report. Once the delivery comes i.e. on t+2 days, the same will be reflected in the

Asset report.

Assets reports: Asset Report shows the total holding in ones account as on date.

Options calc: The options calculator calculates the option price or volatility for a particular

options contract given the Option type i.e. Call or Put, Spot Price, Strike Price, Time until

expiry, Interest Rate and volatility or Option Price depending on what needs to be calculated.

LTP- Last Traded Price

TTQ - Total Traded Quantity

70/195

Limit: A limit order is an order to buy or sell a security at a specific price. A buy limit order can

only be executed at the limit price or lower, and a sell limit order can only be executed at the

limit price or higher.

Market: Market orders are orders for which price is specified as 'MKT' at the time the order is

entered. For such orders, the system determines the price.

Stop-Loss: This facility allows the user to release an order into the system, after the market

price of the security reaches or crosses a threshold price called trigger price.

Example: If for stop loss buy order, the trigger is Rs.93.00, the limit price is Rs.95.00 and the

market (last traded) price is Rs.90.00, then this order is released into the system once the market

price reaches or exceeds Rs.93.00.This order is added to the regular lot book with time of

triggering as the time stamp, as a limit order of Rs.95.00.All stop loss orders are kept in a

separate book (stop loss book) in the system until they are triggered.

Trigger Price: Price at which an order gets triggered from the stop loss book.

Limit Price: Price of the orders after triggering from stop loss book


71/195

Trading System: The trading system features and user navigation for Market are described

below.

Quantity :Order quantity should be in multiples of Market Lot.

Price :Members can enter either market orders or limit price orders. Order price for limit price

orders should be in multiples of tick size.

Order Cancellation/Modification : Order cancellation and modification is allowed for orders

entered. Order cancellation functionality can be performed only for orders which have not been

fully or partially traded (for the untraded part of partially traded orders only) and only during

market hours.

Net Position :The Net Position screen displays consolidated statistics for all markets as well as

separately for each market.


72/195

Delivery Trades

This intimates the system to take delivery for the order placed. Incase of buy order, the system

will block the entire amount for the order placed. Incase of delivery sell order, one should check

the demat stock availability, once the order is accepted in the exchange the quantity put for sale

is blocked. Once the sell order is executed the entire amount generated from the sell trade will

be available for trading for further trading

Intraday or Square-off trades

Intraday price movements are particularly important to short-term traders looking to make many

trades over the course of a single trading session. The term intraday is occasionally used to

describe securities that trade on the markets during regular business hours.

ObligationTrades (BTST)

In case of Obligation trades, the customer may buy shares of a company to-day and sell of the

shares bought the very next day before the actual settle-ment

Lets say, if you buy 100 INFOSYS today at 3500 and tomorrow if the rate goes upto 3800, can

you sell the same

81/195

An investor buys one European call option on Infosys at the strike price of Rs. 3500 at a

premium of Rs. 50. If the market price of Infosys on the day of expiry is Rs. 3600

The investor's Break even point is Rs. 3550 (Strike Price + premium paid) i.e., investor

will earn profits if the market crosses above Rs. 3550.

However, If at the time of expiry stock price falls below Rs. 3500 say suppose it touches

Rs. 3000, the buyer of the call option will choose not to exercise his option.

In this case the investor loses the premium (Rs 100), paid which shall be the profit

earned by the seller of the call option.


82/195

An investor buys one European Put option on Reliance at the strike price of Rs. 300/-, at

a premium of Rs. 25/-. If the market price of Reliance, on the day of expiry is less than

Rs. 300, the option can be exercised.

The investor's Break even point is Rs. 275 (Strike Price - premium paid) i.e.,

investor will earn profits if the market falls below 275.

Suppose stock price is Rs. 260, the buyer of the Put option immediately buys Reliance

share in the market @ Rs. 260/- & exercises his option selling the Reliance share at Rs

300 to the option writer thus making a net profit of Rs. 15 {(Strike price - Spot Price) -

Premium paid}.

In another scenario, if at the time of expiry, market price of Reliance is Rs 320/ - , the

buyer of the Put option will choose not to exercise his option to sell as he can sell in the

market at a higher rate. In this case the investor loses the premium paid (i.e Rs 25/-),

which shall be the profit earned by the seller of the Put option.

Trading

The trading on stock exchanges in India used to take place through open outcry

without use of information technology for immediate matching or recording of

trades. This was time consuming and inefficient. This imposed limits on trading

volumes and efficiency. In order to provide efficiency, liquidity and transparency,

NSE introduced a nation-wide on-line fully-automated screen based trading system

(SBTS) where a member can punch into the computer quantities of securities and

the prices at which he likes to transact and the transaction is executed as soon as it

finds a matching sale or buy order from a counter party. SBTS electronically

matches orders on a strict price/time priority and hence cuts down on time, cost

and risk of error, as well as on fraud resulting in improved operational efficiency.

It allows faster incorporation of price sensitive information into prevailing prices,

. It enables market participants, irrespective of their geographical locations, to trade with one

another simultaneously, improving the depth and liquidity of the market. It provides full

anonymity by accepting orders, big or small, from members without revealing their

identity, thus providing equal access to everybody


89/195

Outstanding Orders

Activity Log

order belonging to that user. These activities include order

modification/cancellation, partial/full trade, trade modification/cancellation. It


90/195

ULIPs vs Mutual Funds: Who's better?

Unit Linked Insurance Policies (ULIPs) as an investment avenue are closest to mutual funds in

terms of their structure and functioning. As is the case with mutual funds, investors in ULIPs are


131/195

allotted units by the insurance company and a net asset value (NAV) is declared for the same on

a daily basis.

Similarly ULIP investors have the option of investing across various schemes similar to the ones

found in the mutual funds domain, i.e. diversified equity funds, balanced funds and debt funds to

name a few. Generally speaking, ULIPs can be termed as mutual fund schemes with an

insurance component.

However it should not be construed that barring the insurance element there is nothing

differentiating mutual funds from ULIPs.

How ULIPs can make you RICH!

132/195

Mutual fund investors have the option of either making lump sum investments or investing

using the systematic investment plan (SIP) route which entails commitments over longer time

horizons. The minimum investment amounts are laid out by the fund house.

ULIP investors also have the choice of investing in a lump sum (single premium) or using the

conventional route, i.e. making premium payments on an annual, half-yearly, quarterly or

monthly basis. In ULIPs, determining the premium paid is often the starting point for the

investment activity.

This is in stark contrast to conventional insurance plans where the sum assured is the starting

point and premiums to be paid are determined thereafter.

2. Expenses

In mutual fund investments, expenses charged for various activities like fund management, sales

and marketing, administration among others are subject to pre-determined upper limits as

prescribed by the Securities and Exchange Board of India.

For example equity-oriented funds can charge their investors a maximum of 2.5% per annum

on a recurring basis for all their expenses; any expense above the prescribed limit is borne by the

fund house and not the investors.


133/195

Similarly funds also charge their investors entry and exit loads (in most cases, either is

applicable). Entry loads are charged at the timing of making an investment while the exit load is

charged at the time of sale.

. Tax benefits

ULIP investments qualify for deductions under Section 80C of the Income Tax Act. This holds

good, irrespective of the nature of the plan chosen by the investor. On the other hand in the

mutual funds domain, only investments in tax-saving funds (also referred to as equity-linked

savings schemes) are eligible for Section 80C benefits.

Maturity proceeds from ULIPs are tax free. In case of equity-oriented funds (for example

diversified equity funds, balanced funds), if the investments are held for a period over 12

months, the gains are tax free; conversely investments sold within a 12-month period attract

short-term capital gains tax @ 10%


134/195

The Systematic Investment Plan (SIP) is a simple and time honored investment strategy for

accumulation of wealth in a disciplined manner over long term period. The plan aims at a

better future for its investors as an SIP investor gets good rate of returns compared to a one time

investor.

What is Systematic Investment Plan

A specific amount should be invested for a continuous period at regular intervals under

this plan.

SIP is similar to a regular saving scheme like a recurring deposit. It is a method of

investing a fixed sum regularly in a mutual fund.

SIP allows the investor to buy units on a given date every month. The investor decides

the amount and also the mutual fund scheme.

While the investor's investment remains the same, more number of units can be bought

in a declining market and less number of units in a rising market.


135/195

ELSS funds have a lock-in period of three years. This could be restricting, but look at the other

side of the picture -- the lock-in period prevents unnecessary withdrawals and helps your money

grow over a period of time.

If you are wondering why a three-year lock-in period is necessary, it is because you need to take

a long-term view when you invest in equity. The real potential of equities starts to show only

after a few years. This allows you to ignore the short-term slumps and stay invested for the long

haul.

How to compare mutual funds

The tax benefit

Investments in ELSSs fall under Section 80C.

The limit under this section is Rs 100,000.

This is irrespective of how much you earn and under which tax bracket you fall.

Also, there are no sub-limits under this overall Rs 100,000 amount.

So, if you choose, you can invest the entire amount in ELSS or infrastructure bonds. How you

utilise the limit of Rs 100,000 is entirely up to you.

What are the criteria for selection and review of scrips for the SENSEX?

A .QuantitativeCriteria:

1. Market Capitalization:

The scrip should figure in the top 100 companies listed by market capitalization. Also

market capitalization of each scrip should be more than 0.5 % of the total market

capitalization of the Index i.e. the minimum weight should be 0.5 %. Since the SENSEX

is a market capitalization weighted index, this is one of the primary criteria for scrip

selection. (Market Capitalization would be averaged for last six months)

2. Liquidity:

(i) Trading Frequency: The scrip should have been traded on each and every trading day

for the last one year. Exceptions can be made for extreme reasons like scrip suspension

etc. (ii) Number of Trades: Number of Trades: The scrip should be among the top 150

companies listed by average number of trades per day for the last one year. (iii) Value of

Shares Traded: Value of Shares Traded: The scrip should be among the top 150

companies listed by average value of shares traded per day for the last one year.


137/195

3. Continuity:

Whenever the composition of the index is changed, the continuity of historical series of

index values is re-established by correlating the value of the revised index to the old

index (index before revision). The back calculation over the last one-year period is

carried out and correlation of the revised index to the old index should not be less than

0.98. This ensures that the historical continuity of the index is maintained.

4. Industry Representation:

Scrip selection would take into account a balanced representation of the listed companies

in the universe of BSE. The index companies should be leaders in their industry group.

B.Qualitative Criteria:

Track Record:

In the opinion of the Index Committee, the company should have an acceptable track

record.


138/195

What is the beta of SENSEX scrips?

Beta measures the sensitivity of a scrip movement relative to movement in the

benchmark index i.e. SENSEX. A Beta of one means that for every change of 1% in

index, the scrip moves by 1%. Statistically Beta is defined as: Covariance (SENSEX,

Stock )/ Variance(SENSEX)

Note: Covariance and variance are calculated from the Daily Returns data of the

SENSEX and SENSEX scrips.

How is SENSEX calculated?

SENSEX is calculated using a "Market Capitalization-Weighted" methodology. As per

this methodology, the level of index at any point of time reflects the total market value of

30 component stocks relative to a base period. (The market capitalization of a company

is determined by multiplying the price of its stock by the number of shares issued by the

company)


139/195

An index of a set of a combined variables (such as price and number of shares) is

commonly referred as a 'Composite Index' by statisticians. A single indexed number is

used to represent the results of this calculation in order to make the value easier to work

with and track over time. It is much easier to graph a chart based on indexed values than

one based on actual values.

The base period of SENSEX is 1978-79. The actual total market value of the stocks in

the Index during the base period has been set equal to an indexed value of 100. This is

often indicated by t
