...DEMAT Dematerialisation is the process by which physical certificates of an investor are converted to an equivalent number of securities in electronic form. Rematerialization is the process of converting securities held in electronic form in a demat account back in physical certificate form. According to the Depositories Act, 1996, an investor has the option to hold securities either in physical or electronic form. Part of holding can be in physical form and part in demat form. However, SEBI has notified that settlement of market trades in listed securities should take place only in the demat mode. All types of equity/ debt instruments viz. equity shares, preference Shares, partly paid shares, bonds, debentures, commercial papers, certificates of deposit, government securities (G-EC) etc. irrespective of whether these instruments are listed / unlisted / privately placed can be dematerialized with depository, if they have been admitted with the depository. The depository system, which links the issuers, depository participants (DPs), Depositories and Clearing Corporation/ Clearing house of stock exchanges, facilitates holding of securities in dematerialised form and effects transfers by means of account transfers. This system which facilitates scripless trading offers various direct and indirect services to the market participants.

...of more efficient financial system. As a result of this NSDL and CDSL came into picture. It aims at ensuring the safety and soundness of Indian marketplaces by developing settlement solutions that increase efficiency, minimize risk and reduce costs. Our project on “Demat System in India” gave us a detailed picture of how securities are transferred electronically in the share market. In our project we had done a comparative study of the various Depository Participants in Ahmedabad on the basis of their services and charges. This study helped us in finding out what additional services other DPs provide and how the charges differ. Another aspect of our project was to get a feedback from the clients regarding the Demat services provided at Anagram Securities Ltd. By meeting the various clients we were able to find out the scope of improvement in the services provided at Anagram. It becomes increasingly important for students of management to understand the developments in the financial infrastructure that facilitates the whole financial system. We were fortunate enough to get an opportunity to do our summer training in such an area as it gave us a wide understanding of the entire demat system in our country....

...Indian market overview: How stock market works? If you'd like to buy a share of stock in any publicly traded company you'll most likely need the services of a brokerage firm. Though it's possible to buy and sell shares of stock on your own, there are some practical and legal problems with this approach. The securities industry is highly regulated, so you can't just hang a shingle and start selling stocks to the general public, unless you're properly registered and licensed. A brokerage firm is a dealer of stocks and other securities that acts as your agent when you want to buy or sell stocks. Most trading of stocks happens on a stock exchange. These are special markets where buyers and sellers are brought together to buy and sell stocks. The best known stock exchanges are the Bombay Stock Exchange and the National Stock Exchange. The Bombay Stock Exchange is one of the largest stock exchanges in the world, listing over 4,500 companies. The BSE SENEX is the major stock index of the Bombay exchange, comparable to the DOW industrials in the US. The National Stock Exchange of India is also based in Mumbai (Mumbai used to be called Bombay) and regularly trades in volumes exceeding that of the Bombay Stock Exchange. The main stock index of the National Stock Exchange of India is the S&P CNX Nifty, or just Nifty for short. Apart from equities, the NSE also deals with trades of futures, debt and foreign currencies. When most people think of a stock exchange, they picture a scene of...

...An index ETF is one where the underlying is an index, say Nifty. The APs deliver the shares comprising the Nifty, in the same proportion as they are in the Nifty, to the AMC and create ETF units in bulk (These are known as Creation Units). Once the APs get these units, they provide liquidity to these units by offering to buy and sell through the stock exchange. They give two way quotes, buy and sell quote for investors to buy and sell the ETFs. ETFs therefore have to be listed on stock exchanges. There are many ETFs presently listed on the NSE. 3.2 SALIENT FEATURES An Exchange Traded Fund (ETF) is essentially a scheme where the investor has to buy/ sell units from the market through a broker (just as he/ he would by a share). An investor must have a demat account for buying ETFs (For understanding what is demat please refer to NCFM module ‘Financial Markets : A Beginners’ Module). An important feature of ETFs is the huge reduction in costs. While a typical Index fund would have expenses in the range of 1.5% of Net Assets, an ETF might have expenses around 0.75%. In fact, in international markets these expenses are even lower. In India too this may be the trend once more Index Funds and ETFs come to the market and their popularity increases. Expenses, especially in the long term, determine to a large extent, how much money the investor makes. This is because lesser expenses mean more of the investor’s money is getting invested today and over a longer period...

...INITIAL PUBLIC OFFER Initial Public Offering (IPO) is when an unlisted company makes either a fresh issue of securities or an offer for sale of its existing securities or both for the first time to the public. This paves way for listing and trading of the issuer’s securities.

The process aims at tapping both wholesale and retail investors. The offer/issue price is then determined after the bid closing date based on certain evaluation criteria. 1.1 The Process: • • • • • • • • The Issuer who is planning an IPO nominates a lead merchant banker as a 'book runner'. The Issuer specifies the number of securities to be issued and the price band for orders. The Issuer also appoints syndicate members with whom orders can be placed by the investors.
