I too$ 'elhi as a sample& I did follow mar$et resear"h pro"edure to get an idea about the
future of :nline 8hare -rading& I was assigned with the tas$ of "omparing different

areas& 8till if we tal$ about Indian "ustomers there are many who are still not aware about
Internet, they still prefer the traditional method of 8hare -rading be"ause they thin$
Internet fraud "ould be there& But many of the young traders or aware traders prefer
:nline 8hare -rading from 8hare$han be"ause they want that wor$ should be speedy and
return should be high&
8ometime people get irritated in filling the form be"ause it6s a long pro"edure, due to
these problems Indian <ustomer hesitate to open '7Mat a""ount but I have suggested few

STOCK AND STOCK MARKET
WHAT IS STOCK
. stock, also referred to as a share, is commonly a share of ownership in
a corporation.
tock is the ownership of a corporation represented by shares that are a
claim on the corporation%s earnings and assets. #here are many kinds
of stocks, the most widely known being C$99$" #$C<, which
usually entitles a stockholder to vote in the election of directors and
other corporate matters.
!magine that you own a business. !f you were to divide that business up
into small pieces and sell those pieces, you would essentially have issued
stock.
#he money you raise from selling those DpiecesD of your business can be
used to build new plants and facilities, pay down debt, or ac(uire
another company. . smart owner will keep at least 51A of the stock,
which will allow them to retain control of the day to day activities. .ny
person or institution that owns over a ma1ority of the stock is called the
)controlling shareholer). 'ssentially, this person can do anything they
want & right down to firing the C'$.
.B
WHAT IS STOCK MARKET
tock market is known as the cradle of capitalism. !t is a place where
companies come to raise their share capital and investors go to invest
their surplus funds.
tock 9arket is a place where financial instruments like shares,
debentures, commercial papers, bonds etc are bought and sold. tock
markets are popularly known as stock e-changes. #here are many
popular stock markets in the world. ".*E, #okyo tock '-change,
:ondon tock '-change are the most popular of the lot. #here are many
participants in a stock market. !nvestors, peculators, .rbitrators,
#raders are different type of participants of a tock 9arket. ,rokers are
intermediaries who bring together various participants in a tock 9arket.
FUNCTION OF STOCK MARKET
. stock market (also known as a stock e-change) has two main functions.
*. #he first function is to provide companies with a way of issuing shares
to people who want to invest in the company.
**. #he second function of the stock market, related to the first, is to
provide a (enue for the buying and selling of shares.
9ost important function of the stock market is to facilitate trading of
financial instruments. ,rokers submit a (uote at the stock market on
behalf of their clients. Euotes are specific to the scrip. #he (uote of
the buyer is matched to the (uote of the seller and the transaction takes
place.
.ll transactions entered in a stock market are guaranteed by the tock
'-change. #hat means if the buyer or seller fails to meet his obligation,
the stock e-change steps in and meets the commitment of the
participant. #his instills a lot of confidence and credibility about the
sanctity of the transaction amongst the investing public. #hat is the
reason why a stock e-change is preferred by investing public to a gray
market in shares even though the latter has much lower transaction cost.
.ll the participants in the stock market have the same ob1ective i.e. to
make a profit. !nvestors invest in the stock market with the hope that
market value of their investment will go up and they will be able to make
higher returns than in bank deposits. .rbitrages buy in one market and
sell in another market with an ob1ective of making a profit

RECOMMENDATION
Indian e"onomy has been globali9e and the "apital mar$et has been lin$ed to the
international finan"ial mar$et& /oreign individuals and institutional investors are now
en"ouraged to parti"ipate into it& 8o, there is a need for raising the Indian <apital mar$et
in to the international standards in terms of effi"ien"y and transparen"y& :ne su"h
measure is the passing out of the 'epository A"t during the year CC5& 'emateriali9ation
of se"urities and under this system is one of the ma#or steps aimed at improving and
moderni9ing the "apital mar$et and enhan"ing the levels of investor6s prote"tion
measures whi"h aims at eliminating the bad deliveries and forgery of shares and
e0pediting the transfer of shares&
-hus online share trading is gaining its popularity& -hough it still has to go a long way
but it has established its foothold in the metropolitan "ities li$e 'elhi, Mumbai et"& -he
demateriali9ing of shares "oupled with the huge growth of Internet has been the fuel for
the online trading whi"h is now a "onsiderable part of the total trading&
It "an therefore be said that online share trading is here to stay and will only grow to
bigger proportions and will penetrate deeper into the e"onomy& 8o online trading would
be"ome the order of the day, ta$ing over the traditional norms in the years to "ome&

>
RECOMMENDATION
 <ompany should invest more in its mar$eting strategies by giving ads in
newspapers, maga9ines, -E "ommer"ials et"&
 -he A""ount opening time ta$en is about > wor$ing days& Improving logisti"s
should redu"e this&
