ABSTRACT

The term "market" can have many different meanings. One usage of the term denotes the primary market and

the secondary market. These two markets distinguish between the market where securities are created and the

market where they are traded among investors. Their function is the key in understanding how securities are

traded. The primary market is where securities are created. It's in this market that firms sell (float) new stocks

and bonds to the public for the first time. Secondary market is where most trading occurs, the secondary market

is the one in which securities are traded after having been initially offered in the primary market. It is

basically a market in which an investor purchases an asset from another investor, rather than an issuing

corporation. This includes the NYSE, NASDAQ and all major exchanges around the world. The defining

characteristic of the secondary market is that investor’s trade among themselves. For example, if you go to

buy Microsoft stock, you are dealing only with another investor who owns shares in Microsoft. Microsoft (the

company) is in no way involved with the transaction. However there was an improvement in the

mechanism of trading whereby it was seen that there was a shift from the traditional method of physical

trading to the updated version of online trading.

INTRODUCTION

Online brokerage has grown substantially since the introduction of Internet and now account for 40%-50%

of retail trade. This change has come in because individual investors want to increase control over their

finances and do not want someone else to manage the money. Online trading has become very popular

in last couple of years because of convenience of ease and use. Numerous companies have gone on-line

to meet their customer’s demands enabling them to trade when they want and how they want to. Online trade,

which now accounts for 50%-60% of all retail trade, is forecasted to increase to 70% by 2008. At present online

brokers hold $574billion in assets but this figure is expected to grow to $4 trillion by end of 2007. The market

has become saturated and very competitive. As the number of players increase, it becomes very difficult

to differentiate. The volatility in US equity, market in 1999 and September 11 World Trade Center attack has

hurt the online brokerage trading volumes. Established E-brokerage firms have created bearer to entry

that makes it difficult for new player to enter into the market. Dematerialization the process by which 8

Page 9: Swot Analysis of Demat Account Services Reliance Securities

physical certificates of an investor are converted to an equivalent number of securities in electronic form and

credited in the investor's account with his (DP) Depository Party. Only those certificates that are already

registered in your name and are in the list of securities are admitted for Dematerialization at NSDL/ CDSL.

Demat shares are supposed to obviate all the problems of physical trading. The biggest attraction of trading in

Demat shares is that the shares an investor buys comes with a clean title and immediately after the

settlement on the relevant stock exchange. Buying shares in the Demat form always guarantees the

investor a good title as soon as the settlement is over and hence it is a preferred mode of trading

today and will be so in the future also.

STATEMENT OF PROBLEM

Online trading and Demat are the two emerging concepts in stock market. It involves personal factors,

technical factors, business factors and economic factors. The interplay of these factors on stock market

requires a deep study about the pattern process and procedures and performance. This study is intended to

identify the various concepts about Demat and the online trading and its way of functioning.

NEED FOR THE STUDY

Physical trading has been given up by many stock exchange around the world and till India is

catching up. Transparency has become an important issue with the regular series of scams over the

years. At this junction, Indian investors are able to avail the facilities of Depository participants,

Depositories, along with Brokerage. So how far this system is working in India and the investors experience

with these new system of trading.

OBJECTIVES OF THE STUDY

METHODOLOGY

9

Page 10: Swot Analysis of Demat Account Services Reliance Securities

assets, which the corporation has inherited, have deep roots and justify full discussion in its historical

perspective.

journals, company reports and the available literature on the subject.

SCOPE OF THE STUDY:-The study encompasses only the major Secondary market that have a substantial

share in the share market. The scope of the study is limited to the performance of the industry for the

limited period.

Limitations of the study

The information provided by the managers may not be the actual figures; it may be a virtual data in the

Sense conclusions based on the real data vary from the virtual data.

The study is conducted in the short period of time, and hence the results vary from time to time.

The study covers only a particular geographical region, and hence the conclusions cannot be

Considered as a whole outcome of the industry.

INDIAN E-BROKING SCENARIO

The Indian stock broking business has gone through a sea of changes. From that of a business dominated

by few individual players to institutional members, as did trading open outcry and hidden deeds to screen

best and transparency. India enters the cyber-trading era to equal the current market trends taking into

consideration the need to facilitate inflow of funds in the capital market. The trading system will enable all

categories of investors, resident and non-resident Indian, to trade online. Online brokerage in India is still in

its early days. Though the trade through online broking is very miniscule compare to total trading, the signs

are that it will grow to 30% -35% in next few years.

EFFECT ON OFF-LINE BUSINESS

With the emergence of e-broking, which offers many benefits like, level playing filled to all investors,

comfort of the house, simplicity, low brokerage and value added services it could be possible for some of

the offline trade to shift to online trade. The proportion of online broking business compare to off line

broking is miniscule about less than 1%. The offline player would not be affected unless the figure

reaches a minimum of 8-10%. Online trade has not started to eat the volumes of, off line business till

now. But at the same time it has created new set of clients for e.g., NRI‟s who were not very active in the

10

Page 11: Swot Analysis of Demat Account Services Reliance Securities

market due to lack of transparency and information, have moved to use this facility. Housewives are

another new category. Net savvy student’s and retired persons are the next expected category.

Depository services-beginning of the era of stocks at click Today it is a practical reality that one can arrange

delivery of securities (shares) sold anytime, anywhere to anyone by a „click‟ of the mouse and it is

possible to trade in securities and settlement of the accounts from the convenience of a sitting room or

via a laptop. The depository is responsible to deliver and receive securities trade at the stock exchange,

which are the business partners of the depository. It does not deal with financial aspect of the settlement of

the trade. Dematerialization of securities (shares) was the commencement of the era of stocks. The

beginning was made in 1996, with legislation of the depository act 1996 and SEBI regulations 1996.

FINDINGS

After the introduction of dematerialization the stock market has become more transparent and it attracts

more investors day by day.

If the volume increases continuously, DPs will be in a position to decrease the charges for opening and

maintenance of demat a/c.

It is observed that banks normally levy a lower service charge compared to other depository

participants.

There are some other banks which charges less services charges for demat services than other

securities companies.

When the numbers of users are more on line, the speed of the transaction is affected.

Since the rolling settlement is one day, people who are speculating without having full amount of

money or shares with their DP, tend to face higher degree of risk.

Some securities have not yet started with the Interactive Voice Response (IVR) units and demat

on net.

Even though online trading provides privacy to the clients, trends available from the trading room will

not help most of the online traders.

investors dealing online must possess good knowledge for analyzing the information passed on

by the companies through net.

11

Page 12: Swot Analysis of Demat Account Services Reliance Securities

Online service depends highly on technology.

CONCLUSION

Notwithstanding many problems, Indian stock market has emerged as a significant financial intermediary,

assisting efficient resource allocation, providing strong support to Indian economy and help investors to

realize the benefits of stock market investing. The growing importance of the Indian stock market place may

be noted in terms of increased mobilization of funds and growing number of investors account. Indian

stock market industry has remained centered around a limited product range. This has happened due to

the tendency to avoid risk, inability to understand future market development and changes in investor

preference. The absence of product diversification and a confused market situation has been made more

by the absence of an innovative marketing network. Online is considered as one of the innovative network. The

product range offered by stock broking firms needs to be redesigned to cater the changes in the short term,

medium term and long term savings and investment markets. Management is considered to be a key for the

operational efficiency of any business venture. This factor becomes even more crucial for service

ventures such as stock broking business venture. Stock market industry must undertake a well-designed

and comprehensive program of investor education especially aimed at investors in rural and semi-urban

areas. However this has been mostly neglected in India. In India most of the broking business comes from

the small investors and efforts are concentrated on serving them efficiently, and this would help them

in being a good intermediary for providing various financial services due to it‟s reach to the last mile.SEBI

has been playing a significant role in the regulation of stock market. SEBI‟s steps like dematerializing, and

trading through net etc. has increased the transparency of the trading than before. In the global market

place no industry can afford to be struck by inertia. But it is management which is crucial to the

success of any business operation.

CHAPTER 3- NEED OF THE STUDY

The need of the study arises because of the reason that a trainee must understand the

company, its achievements and tasks, products and services and also to collect information

about its competitors, its products and services offered. So that, after understanding and

collecting information about the organization and its competitors, a trainee will be able to

work well for the organization.

From the study I have learned very much, about the company as well as the strategy of the

customers, which helps me a lot at my working days.

22

Page 23: Swot Analysis of Demat Account Services Reliance Securities

Demat account

There are many broking houses doing business in India and they charge a brokerage on every transaction made

online or offline. (Buying and Selling are treated as separate transaction). Reliance Money’s advantage over

others is that it’s charging the lowest brokerage in the market which is just 1 paisa on every executive trade

irrespective of the volume traded. Reliance Money, the brokerage and distribution arm of Reliance ADA

Group, aims to tap investors in the smaller towns and cities through a flat fee structure.

The new wonder is Reliance Money's pre-paid card for stock market brokerage. Reliance Money, the financial

services division of Anil Dhirubhai Ambani Group-promoted Reliance Capital, is bringing to the market pre-

paid cards in denominations of Rs500, Rs1000, Rs. 2500, Rs. 5,000 and Rs.10000.  Target low level of retail

penetration in India - less than 3 per cent of household financing savings makes it into equity markets. Reliance

Money Demat Account Holders can trade in

Equities

Equity investment generally refers to the buying and holding of shares of stock on a stock market by individuals

and funds in anticipation of income from dividends and capital gain as the value of the stock rises. It also

sometimes refers to the acquisition of equity (ownership) participation in a private (unlisted) company or a

start-up (a company being created or newly created).

Commodities

A single platform to trade on both the major commodity exchanges i.e. NCDEX and MCX. In addition In-house

research desk shall provide research reports on all major commodities which shall enable in getting views for

trading and diversify client’s holdings. Trade Execution assistance is also provided to clients.

Offshore Investments Offshore investment is the keeping of money in a jurisdiction other than one's country of residence. Offshore

jurisdictions are a commonly accepted solution to reducing excessive tax burdens levied in most countries to

both large and small scale investors alike. The advantage to this is that such operations are both legal and less

costly than the solutions offered in the investor's country - or "onshore".

Offshore solutions are accessible to anyone who can meet the minimum investment amount or pay the

obligatory fees required to open such an entity.

Another reason why 'offshore' investment is superior to 'onshore' investment is because it is less regulated, and

the behaviour of the offshore investment provider, whether he be a banker, fund manager, trustee or stock-

broker, is freer than it could be in a more regulated environment. Reliance Money has already tied-up with

CMC Capital Plc UK to offer offshore Investment products to Indian consumers as per guidelines.

CHAPTER 5- Theoretical Background

RELIANCE DEMAT ACCOUNTS

Overview of Demat Account

In India, a Demat account the abbreviation for dematerialised account, is a type of banking account which

dematerializes paper-based physical stock shares. The dematerialised account is used to avoid holding physical

shares: the shares are bought and sold through a stock broker. This account is popular in India. The Securities

and Exchange Board of India (SEBI) mandates a demat account for share trading above 500 shares. As of April

2006, it became mandatory that any person holding a demat account should possess a Permanent Account

Number (PAN), and the deadline for submission of PAN details to the depository lapsed on January 2007.

Procedure

1. Fill Demat request form (DRF) (obtained from a depository participant or DP with whom your depository

account is opened).

2. Deface the share certificate(s) you want to dematerialize by writing across Surrendered for dematerialisation.

3. Submit the DRF & share certificate(s) to DP. DP would forward them to the issuer / their R&T Agent.

4. after dematerialisation, your depository account with your DP, would be credited with the dematerialised

securities.

• Holding investments in equity and debt instruments in a single account.

Required Documents

The extent of documentation required to open a demat account may vary according to your relationship with the

institution. If you plan to open a demat account with a bank, a savings, current and, or other account for which

the holder have been issued a check book, such holder has an edge over the non-account holder. In fact, banks

usually offer additional incentives to customers who open a demat account with them. Along with the

application form, your photographs (with co-applicants) and proof of identity/residence/date of birth have to be

submitted. The DPs also ask for a DP-client agreement to be executed on non-judicial stamp paper. Here is a

broad list:

• A cancelled check, preferably MICR

• Proof of Identification

• Proof of Address

30

Page 31: Swot Analysis of Demat Account Services Reliance Securities

• Proof of Pan Card (mandatory)

• Recent photographs, one and, or more For proof of identification and, or address self-attested facsimile

copies of PAN card, Voter’s ID, Passport, Ration card, Driver’s license, Photo credit card, Employee ID card,

Bank attestation, latest IT returns and, or latest Electricity/Landline phone bill are sufficient. While They only

ask for photocopies of the documents, they will need the originals for verification.

Points to Remember

1. Only securities admitted by NSDL can be dematerialized. The list is available with your DP.

2. Only securities registered in the name of the account holder can be dematerialized.

3. Dematerialization is normally completed within 15 days after the share certificates have reached the issuer/

their R&T Agent. Thus it may take you a month from the date you hand over shares, to receive demat credit.

4. Dematerialization would be done only when the issuer / their R&T Agent is satisfied of genuineness of

securities & ownership status

5. All the joint holders should sign the DRF.

6. The pattern of holding in the DRF should match the pattern of holding on the share certificate & the pattern

in which account is opened.

7. Demat requests with name(s) not matching exactly with the name(s) appearing on the certificates merely on

account of initials not being spelt out fully or put after or prior to the surname, would be processed, provided

the signature(s) of the client(s) on the DRF tallies with the specimen signature(s) available with the issuer/ their

R & T agent.

8. If the signature in the DRF does not match with the signature available with the issuer/ their R & T agent,

the issuer/ their R & T agent may at the time of demat confirmation, ask for additional documentation (like

Bank attestation/ notarisation, etc.) to prove that the certificate belongs to the person who forwarded the DRF.

9. In case there is any problem in processing the DRF, contact Your DP and if he cannot resolve the problem

you may contact NSDL.

Benefit of Demat account has become a necessity for all categories of investors for the following reasons/

benefits:

SEBI has made it compulsory for trades in almost all scrip’s to be sett led in

Demat mode. Although, trades up to 500 shares can be sett led in physical form,

physical sett lement is virtually not taking place for the apprehension of bad

delivery on

name, etc. - can be effected across companies by one single instruction to the DP.

Each share is a market lot for the purpose of transactions - so no odd lot problem.

Any number of securities can be transferred/delivered with one delivery order. Therefore,

paperwork and signing of multiple transfer forms is done away with. It facili tates taking

advances against securities on low margin/low interest .
