Book Description
Equity derivatives trading started on June 9, 2000 with introduction of stock index futures by Bombay Stock Exchange (BSE). National Stock Exchange (NSE) also commenced its trading on 12 June, 2000 based on Samp;P Nifty. Subsequently, other products like stock futures on individual securities, index options and options on individual securities were introduced. This paper tries to examine the impact of derivatives trading on the volatility of Samp;P Nifty and BSE Sensex using ARCH/GARCH technique. It also examines the behaviour of volatility of other indices such as Nifty Junior, NSE 200, Samp;P Nifty 500, BSE-100 and BSE-200 to see whether the market wide volatility has declined over the sample period. Further, surrogate indices like BSE100 and Nifty Junior are used to assess whether the introduction of derivatives per se has been instrumental or the volatility has plummeted in line with general fall in market wide volatility. The results established that introduction of futures and options have negligible or no effect on the volatility as evident from GARCH (1, 1) model. When surrogate index taken into consideration Samp;P Nifty showed decline in volatility while BSE Sensex exhibited rise in volatility. EGARCH model indicates fall in volatility in case of all indices.

Book Description
It has been almost one year since exchange-based option trading on individual stocks began in the Indian market. Considering that this is a structural change, it would be interesting to note its impact on the spot market. An analysis suggests that in certain stocks both volatility and returns in the spot market have declined after options trading began. Volumes in the spot market declined in most cases, post listing. Regulators and market participants have been interested in observing the impact of the listing of options on the spot market, especially in terms of volatility. For instance, the 1987 crash is widely blamed on the excessive use of financial derivatives. Therefore, a fundamental concern is whether speculation in the option market gives rise to higher volatility in the underlying asset market. Another concern among empirical researchers has been the effect of introduction of options on volumes. The options market provides an alternative arena for speculators. For instance, assuming that speculators move from the spot to the options markets, there could be a drop in traded volumes in the former, assuming that other demand factors do not change. An empirical study of the Indian stock markets to examine the effects of derivatives on the liquidity and volatility of the underlying asset over the period of the last twelve months suggests that there is nothing to support the theory that the introduction of options has led to a rise in trading interest in the spot market.

Project Report from the year 2010 in the subject Business economics - Investment and Finance, , course: Ph. D, language: English, abstract: Every modern economy is based on a sound financial system and acts as a monetary channel for productive purpose with effecting economic growth. It encourages saving habit by throwing open and plethora of instrument avenues suiting to the individuals requirements, mobilizing savings from households and other segments and allocating savings into productive usage such as trade, commerce, manufacture etc. Thus a financial system can also be understood as institutional arrangements, through which financial surpluses are mobilized from the units generating surplus income and transferring them to the others in need of them. In nutshell, financial market, financial assets, financial services and financial institutions constitute the financial system. The activities include exchange and holding of financial assets or instruments of different kinds of financial institutions, banks and other intermediaries of the market. Financial markets provide channels for allocation of savings to investment and provide variety of assets to savers in various forms in which the investors can park their funds. At the same time, financial market is one that integral part of the financial system which makes significant contribution to the countries’ economic development. It establishes a link between the demand and supply of long-term capital funds. The economic strength of a country depends squarely on the state of financial market, apart from the productive potential of the country. The efficient allocation of fund by the capital market depends on the state of capital market. All the countries therefore focus more on the functioning of the capital market. Indian financial market has faced many challenges in the process of effecting more efficient allocation and mobilization of capital. It has attained a remarkable degree of growth in the last decade and in continuing to achieve the same in current decade also. Opening up of the economy and adoption of the liberalized economic policies have driven our economy more towards the free market. Over the last few years, financial markets, more specifically the security market were experiencing a lot of structural and regulatory changes. The major constituents of financial market are money market and the capital market catering to the type of capital requirements.

Research Paper (postgraduate) from the year 2011 in the subject Business economics - Banking, Stock Exchanges, Insurance, Accounting, grade: 1, , language: English, abstract: The Indian stock market S and P CNX Nifty Index (Nifty) is a well diversified index of 50 companies. Foreign Institutional Investors (FII’s), wield significant influence over daily trading volumes in both the spot and derivative segments in the Indian markets. This tends to impact market volatility and returns. This study attempted to study the effect of FII transaction amounts, derivative turn over amounts and volatility on the performance of the Nifty index. A strong correlation was observed between derivative turnover and the Nifty but the correlation was relatively weaker between the Nifty and FII transaction amounts and Volatility. FII and F&O activity established important tops ahead of major tops in the Nifty. Volatility remained low during periods of significant upside in the stock market but spiked up during market declines. Linear and Non-linear models using multivariate analysis were fit to estimate the Nifty from the respective independent variables. A non linear model involving all three variables provided the best fit and the least deviation from actual values suggesting that interplay of these and other factors drive the performance of the index. Keywords: Nifty, FII transaction amounts, F&O turnover, Volatility, Nifty forecasting, Linear and Non Linear Models.

Book Description
This study is an exploration of the Indian stock market, focusing on the possible presence of momentum trading. One thing, however, should be noted. While it is true that momentum trading, which tends to generate speculative bubbles, may result in a financial market crash, its nature in contrast might depend on the nature of the economy itself. The study, while exploring the presence and nature of momentum trading on the Indian stock market in recent years, seeks to relate it to significant structural breaks in the Indian or global economy. To be precise, it outlines a potential correlation between the instability in the stock market and the speculative trading on the market, exploring the question of whether it is human psychology that drives financial markets. In the process, the choice of a significant structural break has been obvious: the global financial meltdown of 2007-2008 – a crisis that has often been referred to as the worst ever since the crash of 1929. While analyzing the nature of momentum trading on the Indian stock market with regard to the financial crisis of 2007-08, the study takes into account two major representatives of the market, the BSE (Bombay Stock Index) and NSE (National Stock Index), for the period 2005 to 2012. This study seeks to answer a few important questions. First of all, it tries to unveil the underlying structure of the market. In doing so, it examines the following issues: (i) What was the latent structure of the Indian stock market leading up to the crisis of 2007-08? Does the structure offer insights into designing profitable trading strategies? (ii) Is it possible to construct a profitable portfolio on the Indian stock market? (iii) Is there any profitable trading strategy on the Indian stock market? While exploring these issues, the study delves deeper, breaking the whole period down into two sub-periods, before the crisis of 2008 and after the crisis. The purpose of this division is to determine whether there has been any discernible change in the market structure since the shock.
