INTRODUCTION

1.1 INTRODUCTION ABOUT THE TOPIC The market for long term securities like bonds, equity stocks and preferred stocks is divided into primary market and secondary market. Primary market deals with the new issues of securities. Outstanding securities are traded in the secondary market, which is commonly known as stock market or stock exchange. In the secondary market, the investors can sell or buy securities. Stock markets predominantly deal in the equity shares. Well regulated and active stock market promotes capital formation. The health of the economy is reflected by the growth of the stock market. Stock broking is a growing industry in India. The main reason is that Indian economy is one of the strongest in the world. As a result of that both foreign and domestic investors are interested in investing in Indian stock market. The topic selected for the study is Security Analysis of selected power sector securities listed in Bombay Stock Exchange with reference to Motilal Oswal securities Ltd, Thrissur. The study is done for the purpose of conducting fundamental analysis and technical analysis of leading securities in the stock market. In the stock market share price of companies are determined by the demand and supply forces operating in the market. These demand and supply forces in turn are influenced by a number of fundamental factors as well as certain psychological or emotional factors. The combined impact of all these factors is reflected in the share price movement. The price movements of securities follow systematic and certain consistent patterns. Past movements in the prices of shares help to identify trends and pattern. It is useful for the prediction of future price movements. The companies selected are NTPC, RELIANCE, POWERGRID, NHPC, TATAPOWER and ADANI POWER. Security analysis is conducted by analyzing both the fundamental and technical aspects. The technical analysis includes bar chart, Moving Average & RSI (Relative Strength Index). Security analysis

An examination and evaluation of the various factors affecting the value of a security is known as Security analysis. Security analysis refers to the analysis of tradable financial instruments. Financial instruments can be classified into debt securities, equities, or some hybrid of the two, futures contracts and tradable credit derivatives are sometimes included. Security analysis is typically divided into fundamental analysis, which relies upon the examination of fundamental business factors such as financial statements, and technical analysis, which focuses upon price trends and momentum

. Two analytical models When the objective of the analysis is to determine what stock to buy and at what price, there are two basic methodologies

Fundamental analysis maintains that markets may misprice a security in the short run but that the "correct" price will eventually be reached. Profits can be made by trading the mispriced security and then waiting for the market to recognize its "mistake" and re-price the security.

Technical analysis maintains that all information is reflected already in the stock price, so fundamental analysis is a waste of time. Trends 'are your friend' and sentiment changes predate and predict trend changes. Investors' emotional responses to price movements lead to recognizable price chart patterns. Technical analysis does not care what the 'value' of a stock is. Their price predictions are only extrapolations from historical price patterns.

Investors can use both these different but somewhat complementary methods for stock picking. Many fundamental investors use techniques for deciding entry and exit points. Many technical investors use fundamentals to limit their universe of possible stock to 'good' companies

Fundamental analysis

Fundamental analysis of a business involves analyzing its financial statements and health, its management and competitive advantages, and its competitors and markets. When applied to futures and forex, it focuses on the overall state of the economy, interest rates, production, earnings, and management. When analyzing a stock, futures contract, or currency using fundamental analysis there are two basic approaches one can use; bottom up analysis and top down analysis. The term is used to distinguish such analysis from other types of investment analysis, such as quantitative analysis and technical analysis.A method of security valuation which involves examining the company's financials and operations, especially sales, earnings, growth potential, assets, debt, management, products, and competition. Fundamental analysis takes into consideration only those variables that are directly related to the company itself, rather than the overall state of the market or technical analysis data. The endgoal of performing fundamental analysisis to produce a value that an investorcan comparewith the security's current price in hopes of figuring out what sort of position to take with that security Fundamental analysis is performed on historical and present data, but with the goal of making financial forecasts. There are several possible

objectives:

To conduct a company stock valuation and predict its probable price evolution,

To make a projection on its business performance,

To evaluate its management and make internal business decisions,

To calculate its credit risk

Tools for fundamental analysisFor fundamental analysis, the following ratios are used:

EPS

= PAT / No of equity shares

DPS

= Amount declared as dividend / No.

of equity shares

Pay out ratio

= DPS / EPS

ROE

= PAT / Net worth

P/E ratio

= MPS / EPS

P/E Average

= Average of the P/E range

Current ratio = Current assets / Current liabilities

Debt- Equity ratio

= Debt capital / Owners capital

Interest coverage ratio = EBIT / Interest

N/P Margin

= PAT / Net sales

TECHNICAL ANALYSIS

Technical analysis is a study of the market data in terms of factors affecting supply and demand schedules, namely, prices, volume of trading, etc. The technical analysis believes that share prices are determined by the demand and supply forces operating the market. These demand and supply forces are in turn influenced by a number of fundamental factors as well as certain psychological and emotional factors. The combined impact of all these factors is reflected in the share price movement. The technical analysis therefore concentrates on the movement of share price. Technical analysis is the name given to forecasting techniques that utilize historical share price data.

Technical analysis is a method of evaluating securities by analyzing 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. Technical analysts believe that the historical performance of stocks and markets are indications of future performance. TOOLS OF TECHNICAL ANALYSIS

Relative Strength Index Simple Moving Average Line Chart Bar Chart 1.2 REVIEW OF LITERATURE

Aber John(1976) in his study found that numerous empirical studies have tested the profitability of technical trading rules in a variety of markets for the purpose of either uncovering profitable trading rules or testing market efficiency, or both. The technical trading studies simulated only one or two trading systems. In these studies, although transaction costs were deducted to compute net returns of technical trading strategies, risk was not adequately handled, statistical tests of trading profits and data snooping problems were often disregarded, and out-of-sample verification along with parameter (trading rule) optimization were not considered in the testing procedure.

Goodman and John W Peavy (1983) in their study found that there is no way of making an expected profit by extrapolating past changes in the futures price, by chart or any other esoteric devices of magic or mathematics. The market quotation already contains in itself all that can be known about the future and in that

sense has discounted future contingencies as much as is humanly possible.

Philip O Regan (1988) explained that demonstrated that under a noisy rational expectations model in which current prices do not fully reveal private information (signals) because of noise (unobserved current supply of a risky asset) in the current equilibrium price, historical prices (i.e., technical analysis) together with current prices help traders make more precise inferences about past and present signals than do current prices alone

Brown and David P (1989) in their article explained that results provide evidence for a predictive information link between non-earnings numbers and future earnings changes. They indicate that some non-earnings numbers do contain information useful for predicting future earnings changes that is not contained in either past or current earnings.

Edward (1992) found that also extends her test to include a valuation link between the predicted future earnings changes and stock returns during the annual report dissemination period. She finds evidence that this valuation link does exist. The non-earnings accounting numbers are therefore useful for predicting both future earnings and returns.

Demark and Thomas R (1994) explained that the history of technical analysis dates back to at least the 18th century when the Japanese developed a form of technical analysis known as candlestick charting techniques. This technique was not introduced to the West until the 1970s.

Hackel and Kenneth S (1996)found that it has been stated that the task of research is to discover what information projects future earnings and, from a financial statement analysis point of view, what information in the financial statements does this

Jan R (1998) explained that results show that receivables do provide incremental information for the prediction of future sales, earnings and profit margins.

Squires (2000) found that study the value relevance of capital expenditures for explaining returns beyond the use of current earnings. Their findings show that changes in the level of capital expenditure were strongly and positively related to excess returns. This exhibits the fact that current capital expenditure has good news for the future performance of a firm and supports the use of capital expenditures for predicting future earnings or returns.

Thomas Robinson (2002) in their study explained that Fundamental analysis involves assessing a firms equity value based on the analysis of published financial statements and other information without reference to the prices at which a firms securities trade in the capital markets.

Palepu and Krishna (2004) found that technical analysis has been extensively used among market participants such as brokers, dealers, fund managers, speculators, and individual investors in the financial industry. 3 Numerous surveys indicate that practitioners attribute a significant role to technical analysis. For example, futures fund managers rely heavily on computer-guided technical trading systems, and about 30% to 40% of foreign exchange traders around the world believe that technical analysis is the major factor determining exchange rates in the short-run up to six months.

Prasanna Chandra (2005) explained thatActive portfolio management is commonly partitioned into two types of activities: market timing, which requires forecasts of broad-based market movements, and security analysis, which requires the selection of individual stocks that are perceived to be underpriced by the market.

V K Bhalla (2006) explained thatsecurity analysis Psychological and Institutional Forces and the Determination of Exchange Rates, Neoclassical economists, by their own admission, have had a terrible time explaining foreign-currency prices. In large part, this is due to the fact that they assume "economic" behavior to be independent of social and cultural influences. But markets are social institutions. They "organize and guide human social behavior through sanctions (formal and informal, negative and positive), mores, norms, status, and shared worldviews". Consequently, explaining economic exchange requires an understanding of the behavior associated with the subculture of those in question.

Dhanesh Kumar Khatri (2006) in their article found that a leading technical analyst, provides a more specific definition: The technical approach to investment is essentially a reflection of the idea that prices move in trends that are determined by the changing attitudes of investors toward a variety of economic, monetary, political, and psychological forces. The art of technical analysis, for it is an art, is to identify a trend reversal at a relatively early stage and ride on that trend until the weight of the evidence shows or proves that the trend has reversed.

Stephan H Penman (2007) in his study found that Technical analysis includes a variety of forecasting techniques such as chart analysis, pattern recognit ion analysis, seasonality and cycle analysis, and computerized technical trading systems.However, academic research on technical analysis is generally limited to techniques that can be expressed in mathematical forms, namely technical trading systems, although some recent studies attempt to test visual chart patterns using pattern recognition algorithms. A technical trading system consists of a set of trading rules that result from parameterizations, and each trading rule generates trading signals (long, short, or out of market) according to their parameter values. Several popular technical trading systems are moving averages, channels, and momentum oscillators.

Ran Canetti & IBM Research (2008) explained thatComposable Formal Security Analysis,a security property of a protocol is composable if it remains intact even when the protocol runs alongside other protocols in the same system. We describe a method for asserting composable security properties, and demonstrate its usefulness. In particular, we show how this method can be used to provide security analysis that is formal, relatively simple, and still does not make un-justied abstractions of the underlying cryptographic algorithms in use. It can also greatly enhance the feasibility of automated security analysis of systems of realistic size.Prasanna Chandra (2008) in his study he explained thatMotivated by an obvious gap between the widespread use of Bloomberg terminals in the finance industry and the scant resources available to an instructor on how to incorporate the available information through the terminal into a finance course, we illustrate our experience using the terminal in an equity-focused security analysis and portfolio management course. Our goal is to enable students inexperienced with the terminal to prepare an analyst report. We identify the most significant challenges we face and provide the corresponding solutions. Our results are also applicable to other finance courses including financial analysis, investments, and student managed investment fund.1.3 INTRODUCTION OF THE STUDY

1.3.1 OBJECTIVES OF THE STUDY

To study fundamental and technical analysis of securities in the power sector. To evaluate the performance of the company.

To analyze the movement of stock.

To evaluate the risk and return of the selected securities.

1.3.2 NEED OF THE STUDY

The capital gains of an investor are on the performance of a particular companys stock in the stock market. The stronger the companys share, the more profit the investor gets. So it is necessary to ascertain, analyze and interpret the share of various firms in order to know its position in the market. Investors can make wise investment with the help of this analysis Through this project, it tries to point out the company which ensure maximum return and minimum risk in power sector where in investment could be made. 1.3.3 SCOPE OF THE STUDY

The study is to analyze the financial strength and future investment prospective of the key players from power sector of the economy.The fundamental analysis is to determine the value of the shares. The technical analysis is to predict the future stock behavior. Rational investors always focus on maximum return which bears minimum risk. Hence, for them, well diversified equity funds are the superlative opportunity available for the investment. .1.3.4 LIMITATIONS Data considered only for past few months.

Indian capital market is featured by the weak form of efficient market hypothesis. The research will be confined to only 7 securities in the power sector. 2.1 INDUSTRY PROFILECapital Market

The market where investment funds like bonds, equities and mortgages are traded is known as the capital market. The primal role of the capital market is to channelize investments from investors who have surplus funds to the ones who are running a deficit. The capital market offers both long term and overnight funds. The financial instruments that have short or medium term maturity periods are dealt in the money market whereas the financial instruments that have long maturity periods are dealt in the capital market. The different types of financial instruments that are traded in the capital markets are equity instruments, credit market instruments, insurance instruments, foreign exchange instruments, hybrid instruments and derivative instruments.

A capital market is a market for securities (both debt and equity), where business enterprises (companies) and governments can raise long-term funds. It is defined as a market in which money is lent for periods longer than a year, as the raising of short-term funds takes place on other markets (e.g., the money market). The capital market includes the stock market (equity securities) and the bond market (debt).

Capital markets consist of

1 Primary market

2 Secondary markets

Primary marketThe primary market is that part of the capital markets that deals with the issuance of new securities. Companies, governments or public sector institutions can obtain funding through the sale of a new stock or bond issue. This is typically done through a syndicate of securities dealers. The process of selling new issues to investors is called underwriting. In the case of a new stock issue, this sale is an initial public offering (IPO). Dealers earn a commission that is built into the price of the security offering, though it can be found in the prospectus.

The primary markets are where new stock and bonds issues are sold (via underwriting) to investors. The secondary markets are where existing securities are sold and bought from one investor or trader to another, usually on a securities exchange, over the counter, or elsewhere.

Features of primary markets are:

This is the market for new long term equity capital. The primary market is the market where the securities are sold for the first time. Therefore it is also called the new issue market (NIM).

In a primary issue, the securities are issued by the company directly to investors.

The company receives the money and issues new security certificates to the investors.

Primary issues are used by companies for the purpose of setting up new business or for expanding or modernizing the existing business.

The primary market performs the crucial function of facilitating capital formation in the economy.

The new issue market does not include certain other sources of new long term external finance, such as loans from financial institutions. Borrowers in the new issue market may be raising capital for converting private capital into public capital; this is known as "going public."

The financial assets sold can only be redeemed by the original holder.

Methods of issuing securities in the primary market are:

1 Initial public offering;

2 Rights issue (for existing companies);

An initial public stock offering (IPO) referred to simply as an "offering" or "flotation," is when a company issues common stock or shares to the public for the first time. They are often issued by smaller, younger companies seeking capital to expand, but can also be done by large privately-owned companies looking to become publicly traded.

A rights issue is offered to all existing shareholders individually and may be rejected, accepted in full or accepted in part. Rights are often transferable, allowing the holder to sell them on the open market. A right to a share is generally issued on a ratio basis (e.g. one-for-three rights issue). Because the company receives shareholders' money in exchange for shares, a rights issue is a source of capital.

Secondary market

The secondary market, also known as the aftermarket, is the financial market where previously issued securities and financial instruments such as stock, bonds, options, and futures are bought and sold. The term "secondary market" is also used to refer to the market for any used goods or assets, or an alternative use for an existing product or asset where the customer base is the second market (for example, corn has been traditionally used primarily for food production and feedstock, but a second- or third- market has developed for use in ethanol production).

Under a secondary market offering or seasoned equity offering of shares to raise money, a company can opt for a rights issue to raise capital. The rights issue is a special form of shelf offering or shelf registration. With the issued rights, existing shareholders have the privilege to buy a specified number of new shares from the firm at a specified price within a specified time. A rights issue is in contrast to an initial public offering (primary market offering), where shares are issued to the general public through market exchanges. With primary issuances of securities or financial instruments, or the primary market, investors purchase these securities directly from issuers such as corporations issuing shares in an IPO or private placement, or directly from the federal government in the case of treasuries.

After the initial issuance, investors can purchase from other investors in the secondary market.The secondary market for a variety of assets can vary from fragmented to centralized, and from illiquid to very liquid. The major stock exchanges are the most visible example of liquid secondary markets - in this case, for stocks of publicly traded companies. . Exchanges provide a centralized, liquid secondary market for the investors who own stocks that trade on those exchanges. Most bonds and structured products trade over the counter, or by phoning the bond desk of ones broker-dealer.

Functions of Secondary market Secondary marketing is vital to an efficient and modern capital market. In the secondary market, securities are sold by and transferred from one investor or speculator to another. It is therefore important that the secondary market be highly liquid (originally, the only way to create this liquidity was for investors and speculators to meet at a fixed place regularly; this is how stock exchanges originated, see History of the Stock Exchange). As a general rule, the greater the number of investors that participate in a given marketplace, and the greater the centralization of that marketplace, the more liquid the market.

Fundamentally, secondary markets mesh the investor's preference for liquidity (i.e., the investor's desire not to tie up his or her money for a long period of time, in case the investor needs it to deal with unforeseen circumstances) with the capital user's preference to be able to use the capital for an extended period of time

Stock Exchanges

Stock exchanges are open markets that trade financial assets. Whether associated with a company or acting as an individual, a stock exchange is the place where stocks are bought and sold. There are a number of major stock exchanges around the world and each of these plays a part in determining the overall financial and economic condition of any economy. Stock exchanges deal with a number of financial instruments such as stocks, bonds and equities. Both corporate and government bonds are traded in stock exchanges. Equities include popular investment options, rights issues, bonus issues, and all other forms of shares and stocks. The actual trading of stocks takes place through mediators such as financial advisors, brokerage houses, and stockbrokers A stock exchange, (formerly a securities exchange) is a corporation or mutual organization which provides "trading" facilities for stock brokers and traders, to trade stocks and other securities. Stock exchanges also provide facilities for the issue and redemption of securities as well as other financial instruments and capital events including the payment of income and dividends. The securities traded on a stock exchange include: shares issued by companies, unit trusts, derivatives, pooled investment products and bonds. To be able to trade a security on a certain stock exchange, it has to be listed there. Usually there is a central location at least for recordkeeping, but trade is less and less linked to such a physical place, as modern markets are electronic networks, which gives them advantages of speed and cost of transactions. Trade on an exchange is by members only. The initial offering of stocks and bonds to investors is by definition done in the primary market and subsequent trading is done in the secondary market. A stock exchange is often the most important component of a stock market. Supply and demand in stock markets are driven by various factors which, as in all free markets, affect the price of stocks (see stock valuation). There is usually no compulsion to issue stock via the stock exchange itself, nor must stock be subsequently traded on the exchange. Such trading is said to be off exchange or over-the-counter. This is the usual way that derivatives and bonds are traded. Increasingly, stock exchanges are part of a global market for securities.

The role of stock exchanges The main role of a stock exchange is to facilitate the transactions associated with both the buying and selling of securities. Buyers and sellers of shares and stocks can track the price changes of securities from the stock markets in which they operate. The ups and downs of stock indexes help the investors to speculate on the return on investment (ROI) of various investment options. Stock exchanges also serve as a source of capital formation for listed companies. Business entities that are listed in a particular stock exchange can issue shares to the public and sell those shares in that market. To take part in these transactions, listed companies need to abide by the rules and requirements of that market. The stock exchanges protect the interests of both buyers and sellers by assuring a timely transfer of money. The participants of a stock market are required to operate within the specified transaction limits fixed by the regulatory authority of that stock market Speed and transparency are vital for all stock market transactions. The companies listed in a stock exchange need to provide proper guidance regarding business performance and prospects, mergers and acquisitions, stock prices, dividends and other information at all times. Investors make their investment decisions based on the information obtained from these companies, and the comments of analysts who track those companies.Bombay Stock Exchange Bombay Stock Exchange is the oldest stock exchange in Asia with a rich heritage, now spanning three centuries in its 133 years of existence. What is now popularly known as BSE was established as "The Native Share & Stock Brokers' Association" in 1875Stock Exchanges Operations :

With the help of stockbrokers, the buyers and sellers participating in a stock market carry out their transactions. The brokers representing selling parties take their orders to the stock exchange floor and then find brokers representing parties willing to invest in similar stocks. If both parties agree to trade at the fixed price, the transaction takes place. The size of the world stock market was estimated at about $36.6 trillion US at the beginning of October 2008. The total world derivatives market has been estimated at about $791 trillion face or nominal value, 11 times the size of the entire world economy. The value of the derivatives market, because it is stated in terms of notional values, cannot be directly compared to a stock or a fixed income security, which traditionally refers to an actual value. Moreover, the vast majority of derivatives 'cancel' each other out (i.e., a derivative 'bet' on an event occurring is offset by a comparable derivative 'bet' on the event not occurring.). Many such relatively illiquid securities are valued as marked to model, rather than an actual market price. The stocks are listed and traded on stock exchanges which are entities of a corporation or mutual organization specialized in the business of bringing buyers and sellers of the organizations to a listing of stocks and securities together

A transaction on a stock exchange must be made between two members of the exchange an ordinary person may not walk into the New York Stock Exchange (for example), and ask to trade stock. Such an exchange must be done through a broker.There are three types of stock broking service.

Execution-only, which means that the broker will only carry out the client's instructions to buy or sell.

Advisory dealing, where the broker advises the client on which shares to buy and sell, but leaves the final decision to the investor.

Discretionary dealing, where the stockbroker ascertains the client's investment objectives and then makes all dealing decisions on the client's behalf Roles similar to that of a stockbroker include investment advisor, and financial advisor. A stockbroker may or may not be also an investment advisor. Stockbrokers also sometimes or exclusively trade on their own behalf, as a principal, speculating that a share or other financial instrument will increase or decline in price. In such cases the term broker makes little sense and the individuals or firms trading in principal capacity sometimes call themselves dealers, stock traders or simply traders.2.2 COMPANY PROFILEMotilal Oswal Securities Ltd Motilal Oswal Securities Ltd.

Fundamentals of all power stock are not strong, as per the financial statement year ended 2012 Movement of TATA POWER, and NHPC shows a weaker trend. The stocks now trading below the critical line so that an investor can move from these stocks. ADANI POWER, RELIANCE and CESC shows bullish trend in its share price and it is advisory to hold these shares. Investor can buy CESC stock in a long term prospective. It is better to book profit on NTPC & POWER GRID stocks even though they trading above the 50 day moving average.(RSI Chart shows bearish trend). It is advisory to an investor, should not depend only on one tool, rather one has gone for other chart patterns to get confirmation for buy or sell signal. The risk is common for all securities. The scrip that is having low price may also be subject to high risk. The main reason is that market is unpredictable. So the investor must invest carefully. Since the risk is involved in every scrip, greater emphasize is given to return in each investment
