A security is a unit of account for various financial instruments including stocks, mutual funds, limited partnerships, and REIT's. In British English, the usage of the word share alone to refer solely to stocks is so common that it almost replaces the word stock itself. In simple Words, a share or stock is a document issued by a company, which entitles its holder to be one of the owners of the company. A share is issued by a company or can be purchased from the stock market Security analysis: Security Analysis is the analysis of tradable financial instruments called securities. Analysis of financial securities and forecasting the future returns is termed as security analysis. Classification of security analysis: The methods used to analyze securities and make investment decisions fall into two very broad categories. Security analysis are broadly classified into two 1. Fundamental analysis 2. Technical analysis
Fundamental analysis
Fundamental analysis is a technique that attempts to determine a securitys value by focusing on underlying factors that affect a company's actual business and its future prospects. On a broader scope, you can perform fundamental analysis on industries or the economy as a whole. The term simply refers to the analysis of the economic well-being of a financial entity as opposed to only its price movements. Fundamental analysis is broadly classified in to three areas: 1. Economic analysis 2. Industry analysis 3. Company analysis
Economic analysis
Investors are concerned with those factors in the economy which affects the performance of the organization in which they wish to participate through purchase of stock. A study of economic forces would give an idea about future corporate earnings and the payment of dividends and interest to investors. Economic analysis occupies the first place in the Financial analysis top down approach. When the economy is having sustainable growth, then the industry group (Sectors) and companies will get benefit and grow faster. The analysis of macroeconomic environment is essential to understand the behavior of the stock prices. The following factors are considered in economic analysis 1. Growth rate of Gross Domestic Product. 2. Industrial growth rate 3. Inflation rate 4. Exchange rates. 5. Balance of payments 6. Government budgets and deficits 7. Interest rates 8. Tax structure 9. Demographic factors Industry analysis The second face of fundamental analysis consists of a detailed analysis of a specific industry; its characteristics, its past record, its future prospects. An industry is a group of firms that have a similar technological structure of production and produce similar products. The objective of industry analysis is to assess the prospects of various industrial groupings. The industry analysis should take into account the following factors. 1. Characteristics of the Industry 2. Stage in Industry life cycle 3. Government policy 4. Demand and market 5. Human resource 6. Future prospect Company or Corporate analysis Company analysis is a study of variables that influence the future of a firm both qualitatively and quantitatively. It is a method of assessing the competitive position of a firm, its earning and profitability, 2
the efficiency with which it operates its financial position and its future with respect to earning of its shareholders. Factors considered in company analysis:
Financial aspects
1. History and track record 2. Technology 3. Management 4. Human resource 5. Brand image 6. Competitive advantage 7. Infrastructure 8. Market share of the company.
1. Financial statement comparison. 2. Dividend 3. Earnings per share 4. Price earnings ratio 5. Book value 6. Key ratio analysis.
Fundamental analysis can be used to identify companies that represent good value. Hence it is good for long term investments.
TECHNICAL ANALYSIS
Technical analysis is a method of evaluating securities by analyzing the statistics generated by market activity, such as past prices and volume. Technical analysts do not attempt to measure a security's intrinsic value, but instead use charts and other tools to identify patterns that can suggest future activity. The field of technical analysis is based on three assumptions: 1. 2. 3. The market discounts everything. Price moves in trends. History tends to repeat itself.
3. Volume Movements 4. Moving average 5. Bollinger Bands 6. Relative strength index 7. Rate of change of price and volumes (ROC) Charting Techniques In technical analysis, charts are similar to the charts that you see in any business setting. A chart is simply a graphical representation of a series of prices over a set time frame.
Types of charts: 1. Line Chart 2. Bar chart 3. Candle stick chart 4. Point and figure chart Technical Analysis: The Use Of Trend One of the most important concepts in technical analysis is that of trend. The meaning in finance isn't all that different from the general definition of the term - a trend is really nothing more than the general direction in which a security or market is headed
Uptrends Downtrends Sideways/Horizontal Trends As the names imply, when there is little movement up or down in the peaks and troughs, it's a sideways or horizontal trend.
Trend Lengths
Along with these three trend directions, there are three trend classifications. A trend of any direction can be classified as a long-term trend, intermediate trend or a short-term trend. The major trend is generally categorized as one lasting longer than a year. An intermediate trend is considered to last between one and three months and a near-term trend is anything less than a month. A long-term trend is composed of several intermediate trends, which often move against the direction of the major trend. If the major trend is upward and there is a downward correction in price movement followed by a continuation of the uptrend, the correction is considered to be an intermediate trend. The short-term trends are components of both major and intermediate trends.
MOVING AVERAGES
Most chart patterns show a lot of variation in price movement. This can make it difficult for traders to get an idea of a security's overall trend. One simple method traders use to combat this is to apply moving averages. A moving average is the average price of a security over a set amount of time. By plotting a security's average price, the price movement is smoothed out. There are two types of moving averages 1. Simple moving average 2. Exponential moving average Simple moving average:
BOLLINGER BANDS
The Bollinger Bands were introduced by J. Bollinger. They provide a visual channel of upper and lower bounds that prices tend to stay between. The channel calculation is based on variation about a statistical mean over a certain look back period. The channels are defined by the calculation of the standard deviation (sigma) of the input value. The upper band is some multiplication factor of Sigma added to a simple moving average of the input value for the same period as the Sigma calculation. The lower band is the value minus Sigma times a multiplication factor. The SMA is plotted as a dashed line and the upper and lower Bollinger Bands are plotted as thin, solid lines. A text note is added to the plot in the upper left corner showing the look back period and the upper and lower Bollinger Band Values. Bollinger Bands bring statistics into the problem of determining stock trading ranges and extremes. Standard deviation can be used to determine when a price move is statistically out of the ordinary. Using a multiplication factor of two means that approximately 95% of the time price should remain between the Bollinger Bands. The distance between the upper and lower bands is also an indication of the volatility of the issue. Usually when the bands tighten a relatively substantial price move is pending. The purpose of Bollinger Bands is to provide a relative definition of high and low. By definition prices are high at the upper band and low at the lower band. This definition can aid in rigorous pattern recognition and is useful in comparing price action to the action of indicators to arrive at systematic trading decisions..Bollinger Bands consist of a set of three curves drawn in relation to securities prices .The middle band is a measure of the intermediate-term trend, usually a simple moving average, which serves as the base for the upper and lower bands. The interval between the upper and lower bands and the middle band is determined by volatility, typically the standard deviation of the same
CALCULATION Middle Bollinger Band = 20 day simple moving average Upper Bollinger Band = Middle Bollinger Band + (2 * 20 day standard deviation) Lower Bollinger Band = Middle Bollinger Band (2 * 20 day standard deviation)
data that were used for the average.
Calculation: ROC = [(Close - Close n periods ago) / (Close n periods ago)] * 100

REVIEW OF LITERATURE
11
1. According to Warren buffet, one of a successful investor in wall street Share is a portion of ownership in a corporation. The holder of a stock is entitled to the company's earnings and is responsible for its risk for the portion of the company that each stock represents. The basic ideas of investing are to look at stocks as business, use the market's fluctuations to your advantage, and seek a margin of safety. Thats what Ben Graham taught us. A hundred years from now they will still be the cornerstones of investing
2. According to Theodore Roosevelt at a Message to Congress in 1908
There is no moral difference between gambling at cards or in lotteries or on the race track and gambling in the stock market.
3. According to Kenneth L Fisher, stock market guru
Most investors dont even stop to consider how much business a company does. All they look at are earnings per share and net assets per share.
4. According to Jesse Livermore
The price pattern reminds you that every movement of importance is but a repetition of similar price movements, that just as soon as you can familiarize yourself with the actions of the past, you will be able to anticipate and act correctly and profitably upon forthcoming movements. 5. According to Benjamin Graham, Economist and professional investor "The essential point (of intrinsic value) is that security analysis does not seek to determine exactly what the intrinsic value of a given security is. It needs only to establish either that the value is adequate -e.g., to protect a bond or to considerable lower than the market price. For such purposes an indefinite and approximate measure of the intrinsic value may be sufficient."
6. According to Charles Dow, editor of Wall street journal
No single investor can influence the stock market. But he can if he buys large quantity of shares. One can understand the stock market but cannot predict it
7. According to Mehraboon J.Irani Vice president, Equity Darashaw & co
Indian economy is doing quite positive and I expect it to grow between 8.5 to 10 percent for at least the next three to four years. One cause for concern is the rate of interest which I think is an off shoot of inflation which itself is part of growth in any economy. Inflation generally grows with the growth of the economy and this is the trend which has been noticed, however it is a concern going forward 8. According to Michal Parness, Founder & CEO of Trendfund.com Investors dont Make Money in the Stock Market. One reason the institutions make so much money is that they are trading. They make money every time you buy or sell. They make money whether you win or lose. That means that when youre investing, youre basically just sitting there. Youre not going anywhere. Youre not making money as an investor.
9. Trading the Trend: The Only Way to Make Money in the Market If you dont know this already, Trend Trading means trading trends based on human emotions. Not lagging indicators. Not complex statistical analysis and not Ph.D. level mathematical equations. With trend trading, you look for market movement. That could mean stocks that are going to move up or down during the course of a day (intraday). Youll play the gaps up and down, often several days a week. The Trend trading means being aware and taking advantage of trends like the run ups that happen around earning sessions. These are trends that have worked time and time again in the market. They consistently yield results

ECONOMIC ANALYSIS:
Overview of Indian Economy
The Economy of India is the eleventh largest in the world by nominal GDP and the fourth largest by purchasing power parity (PPP). The country's per capita GDP (PPP) is $3,290 (IMF, 127th) in 2010. Following strong economic reforms from the socialist inspired economy of a post-independence Indian nation, the country began to develop a fast-paced economic growth, as free market principles were initiated in 1990 for international competition and foreign investment. Economists predict that by 2020, India will be among the leading economies of the world. Overview
India was under social democratic policies from 1947 to 1991. The economy was characterized by extensive regulation, protectionism, public ownership, pervasive corruption and slow growth. Since 1991, continuing economic liberalization has moved the country toward a market-based economy. A revival of economic reforms and better economic policy in first decade of the 21st century accelerated India's economic growth rate. In recent years, Indian cities have continued to liberalize business regulations. By 2008, India had established itself as the world's second-fastest growing major economy. India's top five trading partners are United Arab Emirates, China, United States, Saudi Arabia and Germany. Previously a closed economy, India's trade and business sector has grown fast. India currently accounts for 1.5% of world trade as of 2007 according to the WTO. According to the World Trade Statistics of the WTO in 2006, India's total merchandise trade (counting exports and imports) was valued at $294 billion in 2006 and India's services trade inclusive of export and import was $143 billion

Interpretation: The Gross Domestic Product (GDP) in India expanded 8.90 percent in the third quarter of 2010 over the previous quarter. From 2004 until 2010, India's average quarterly GDP Growth was 8.40 percent reaching an historical high of 10.10 percent in September of 2006 and a record low of 5.50 percent in December of 2004. India's diverse economy encompasses traditional village farming, modern agriculture, handicrafts, a wide range of modern industries, and a multitude of services. Services are the major source of economic growth, accounting for more than half of India's output with less than one third of its labor force. The economy has posted an average growth rate of more than 7% in the decade since 1997, reducing poverty by about 10 percentage points.
17
Industry accounts for 28% of the GDP and employ 14% of the total workforce. In absolute terms, India is 12th in the world in terms of nominal factory output. The Indian industrial sector underwent significantly changes as a result of the economic reforms of 1991, which removed import restrictions, brought in foreign competition, led to privatization of certain public sector industries, liberalised the FDI regime, improved infrastructure and led to an expansion in the production of fast moving consumer goods. Post-liberalization, the Indian private sector was faced with increasing domestic as well as foreign competition, including the threat of cheaper Chinese imports. It has since handled the change by squeezing costs, revamping management, and relying on cheap labour and new technology. However, this has also reduced employment generation even by smaller manufacturers who earlier relied on relatively labourintensive processes. Textile manufacturing is the second largest source of employment after agriculture and accounts for 20% of manufacturing output, providing employment to over 20 million people. Ludhiana produces 90% of woollens in India and is known as the Manchester of India. Tirupur has gained universal recognition as the leading source of hosiery, knitted garments, casual wear and sportswear. India is 13th in services output. The services sector provides employment to 23% of the work force and is growing quickly, with a growth rate of 7.5% in 19912000, up from 4.5% in 195180. It has the largest share in the GDP, accounting for 55% in 2007, up from 15% in 1950. Information technology and business process outsourcing are among the fastest growing sectors, having a cumulative growth rate of revenue 33.6% between 199798 and 200203 and contributing to 25% of the country's total exports in 200708. The growth in the IT sector is attributed to increased specialization, and an availability of a large pool of low cost, but highly skilled, educated and fluent English-speaking workers, on the supply side. This is matched on the demand side by an increased demand from foreign consumers interested in India's service exports, or those looking to outsource their operations. The share of the Indian IT industry in the country's GDP increased from 4.8 % in 2005 06 to 7% in 2008. In 2009, seven Indian firms were listed among the top 15 technology outsourcing companies in the world. Tourism in India is relatively undeveloped, but growing at double digits. Some hospitals woo medical tourism.
18
Organised retail supermarkets accounts for 24% of the market as of 2008. Regulations prevent most foreign investment in retailing. Moreover, over thirty regulations such as "signboard licences" and "anti-hoarding measures" may have to be complied before a store can open doors. There are taxes for moving goods from state to state, and even within states. Mining forms an important segment of the Indian economy, with the country producing 79 different minerals (excluding fuel and atomic resources) in 200910, including iron ore, manganese, mica, bauxite, chromite, limestone, asbestos, fluorite, gypsum, ochre, phosphorite and silica sand.

Government Initiatives
The government has constituted the Technical Advisory Group for Unique Projects
(TAGUP) under the chairmanship of Nandan Nilekani. The Group would develop IT infrastructure in five key areas, which includes the New Pension System (NPS) and the Goods and Services Tax (GST)
27
The government set up the National Taskforce on Information Technology and Software
Development with the objective of framing a long term National IT Policy for the country
Enactment of the Information Technology Act, which provides a legal framework to
software exports from the country, there are currently 51 STPI centers where apart from exemption from customs duty available for capital goods there are also exemptions from service tax, excise duty, and rebate for payment of Central Sales Tax. But the most important incentive available is 100 per cent exemption from Income Tax of export profits, which has been extended till 31st March 2011
Government is also setting up Information Technology Investment Regions (ITIRs). These
regions would be endowed with excellent infrastructure and would reap the benefits of cositting, networking and greater efficiency through use of common infrastructure and support services.
Moreover, according to NASSCOM government, IT spend was US$ 3.2 billion in 2009 and
is expected to reach US$ 5.4 billion by 2011. Further, according to NASSCOM, there is US$ 9 billion business opportunity in e-governance in India.
The government has recently relaxed employment visa norms for the IT and ITeS sectors,
allowing companies in these sectors to employ foreign nationals as per their requirements, effectively removing the ceiling of 20 such employees per company. Companies would need to provide a declaration that the skilled worker has been hired for working in an IT or ITeS company or a software technology park of India or special economic zone dedicated to IT or an IT unit in a multi-product zone, while the foreign worker being sponsored would have to give a declaration to the effect that his annual salary is in excess of US$ 25,000 per annum.
Export Oriented Units (EOUs) Scheme: The purpose of the scheme was basically to boost exports by creating additional production capacity.
Electronics Hardware Technology Parks (EHTPs): Electronics Hardware Technology Park (EHTP) complexes can be set up by the Central Government, State Government,
28
Public or Private Sector Undertakings or any combination thereof, duly approved by the Inter- Ministerial Standing Committee (IMSC) in the Ministry of Communication and Information Technology (Department of Information Technology).
Software Technology Parks (STPs): The Software Technology Parks of India (STPI) have been set up by the Ministry of Information Technology, Government of India and the International Technology Park in a joint project by the State Government.
Special Economic Zone (SEZ) Scheme: SEZs are being set up to enable hassle free manufacturing and trading for export purposes. Sales from Domestic Tariff Area (DTA) to SEZs are being treated as physical export. This entitles domestic suppliers to Drawback/ DEPB benefits, CST exemption and Service Tax exemption. Certain exemptions like Income Tax exemption on export profits is available to SEZ Units for 5 years, 50% for next 2 years and 50% of ploughed back profits for 3 years thereafter are available for units in these designated areas/zones.
Export Promotion Capital Goods (EPCG) Scheme: The EPCG Scheme allows import of capital goods for pre-production, production and postproduction (including CKD/SKD thereof) at 5% customs duty subject to export obligations.
Human resource of IT Industry India is considered as one of the major IT hub in the world. One of the major reason is its human resource availability Several multinational organizations are investing in India for its resource which is cheap as well as having abundant skill set. Abundant talent pool producing close to 6,75,000 technical graduates a year, of which 4,00,000 are engineers Future of Indian Information Technology Industry The current scenario in the IT industry of India and the tremendous growth registered in recent years has generated much optimism about the future of the Indian Information technology industry. Analysts are optimistic about the huge potential of growth in the Information Technology industry in India. According to a report prepared by McKinsey for NASSCOM, the exports component of the Indian industry is expected to reach US$ 175 billion in revenue by 2020. The domestic component will contribute US$ 50 billion in revenue by 2020. Together, the
29
export and domestic markets are likely to bring in US$ 225 billion in revenue, as new opportunities emerge in areas such as public sector and healthcare and as geographies including Brazil, Russia, China and Japan opt for greater outsourcing. The major areas of benefit that the future growth in the IT industry can generate are
Exports - The IT industry accounts for a major share in the exports from India. This is expected to grow further in coming years. The information technology industry is one of the major sources of foreign currency for India.
Employment - The biggest benefit of the IT industry is the huge employment it generates. For a developing country like India, with a huge population, the high rate of employment in the IT sector is a big advantage. More than 2.5 million people are employed in the sector either directly or indirectly, making it one of the biggest job creators in India and a mainstay of the national economy..
FDI (Foreign Direct Investment) - High inflow of FDI in the IT sector is expected to continue in coming years. The inflow of huge volumes of FDI in the IT industry of India has not only boosted the industry but the entire Indian economy in recent years. Software exports from India are expected to grow in coming years. New markets for
software exports from India have opened up in the Middle East, South and Southeast Asia, Africa, and Eastern Europe. Many developing countries are now using the Indian model for growth in the IT sector. Another important area of future growth for the IT industry of India is the domestic market. While exports dominate the IT industry at present, there is huge scope of growth in the domestic market in the future. The US recession has had its share of negative impacts on the Indian IT industry. However, the industry has faced the challenges posed by the global market and is sustaining its rate of growth. The focus for the future is to ensure that the benefits of the IT industry percolate to the grassroots levels.
