1.2 INDIAN COMMODITY MARKET:-

HISTORY:- Commodity futures markets largely remainunderdeveloped in India. This is in spite of the countries longhistory of commodity derivatives trade as compared to the US andUK. A major contributor to this fact is the extensive governmentintervention in the agricultural sector in the post-independenceera. In reality, the production and distribution of severalagricultural commodities is still governed by the state andforwards as well as futures trading have only been selectivelyintroduced with stringent regulatory controls. Free trade in manycommodity items remains restricted under the Essential CommoditiesAct (ECA), 1955, and forwards as well as future contracts arelimited to specific commodity items listed under the ForwardContracts (Regulation) Act (FCRA), 1952.

The evolution of the organized futures market in India commencedin 1875 with the setting up of the Bombay Cotton Trade AssociationLtd. Following widespread discontent among leading cotton millowners and merchants over the functioning of the Bombay CottonTrade Association, a separate association, Bombay Cotton ExchangeLtd., was constituted in 1983. Futures trading in oilseedsoriginated with the setting up of the Gujarati Vyapari Mandali in1900, which carried out futures trading in ground nuts, castorseeds and cotton. The Calcutta Hessian Exchange Ltd. and the EastIndia Jute Association Ltd. were set up in 1919 and 1927respectively for futures trade in raw jute. In 1921, futures incotton were organized in Mumbai under the auspices of East IndiaCotton Association (EICA). Before the Second World War broke out in1939, several futures markets in oilseeds were functioning in thestates of Gujarat and Punjab. Futures markets in Bullion began inMumbai in 1920, and later, similar markets were established inRajkot, Jaipur, Jamnagar, Kanpur, Delhi and Calcutta. In duecourse, several other exchanges were established in the country,facilitating trade in diverse commodities such as pepper, turmeric,potato, sugar and jiggery.

Post independence, the Indian constitution listed the subject ofStock Exchanges and Future Markets under the union list. As aresult, the regulation and development of the commodities futuresmarkets were defined solely as the responsibility of the centralgovernment. A bill on forward contracts was referred to an expertcommittee headed by Prof. A.D. Shroff and selected committees oftwo successive parliaments and finally, in December 1952, theForward Contracts (Regulation) Act was enacted. The ForwardContracts (Regulation) rules were notified by the centralgovernment in 1954. The futures trade in spices was first organizedby the India Pepper and Spices Trade Association (IPSTA) in Cochinin 1957.

Following the introduction of economic reforms in 1991, theGovernment of India appointed an expert committee on forwardmarkets under the chairmanship of Prof. K.N. Kabra in June 1993.The committee submitted its report in September 1994, championingthe reintroduction of futures, which were banned in 1966, andexpanding its coverage to agricultural commodities, along withsilver.

In order to boost the agricultural sector, the NationalAgricultural Policy 2000 envisaged external and domestic marketreforms and dismantling of all controls and regulations in theagricultural commodity markets. It also proposed an expansion ofthe coverage of futures markets to minimize the wide fluctuationsin commodity prices and for hedging the risk arising from extremeprice volatilities.

STRUCTURE, CONDUCT & CURRENT STATUS :-

Broadly, the commodities market exists in two distinct formstheover-the-counter (OTC) market and the exchange based market.Further, as in equities, there exists the spot and the derivativessegments. Spot markets are essentially OTC markets andparticipation is restricted to People who are involved with thatcommodity, such as the farmer, processor, wholesaler, etc. Amajority of the derivatives trading takes place through theexchange-based markets with standardized contracts, settlements,etc. The exchange-based markets are essentially derivative marketsand are similar to equity derivatives in their working, that is,everything is standardized and a person can purchase a contract bypaying only a percentage of the contract value. A person can alsogo short on these exchanges. Moreover, even though there is aprovision for delivery, most contracts are squared-off beforeexpiry and are settled in cash. As a result, one can see an activeparticipation by people who are not associated with the commodity.The typical structure of commodity futures markets in India is asfollows:

At present, there are 26 exchanges operating in India andcarrying out futures trading activities in as many as 146 commodityitems. As per the recommendation of the FMC, the Government ofIndia recognized the National Multi Commodity Exchange (NMCE),Ahmadabad; Multi Commodity Exchange (MCX), National Commodity andDerivative Exchange (NCDEX), Mumbai and Indian Commodity Exchange (ICEX) as nation-wide multi-commodity exchanges.

As compared to 59 commodities in January 2005, 94 commoditieswere traded in December 2006 in the commodity futures market. Thesecommodities included major agricultural commodities such as rice,wheat, jute, cotton, coffee, major pulses (such as urad, arahar andchana), edible oilseeds (such as mustard seed, coconut oil,groundnut oil and sunflower), spices (pepper, chillies, cumin seedand turmeric), metals (aluminum, tin, nickel and copper), bullion(gold and silver), crude oil, natural gas and polymers, amongothers. Gold accounted for the largest share of trade in terms ofvalue. A temporary ban was imposed on futures trading in urad andtur dal in January 2007 to ensure orderly market conditions. Anefficient and well-organized commodities futures market isgenerally acknowledged to be helpful in price discovery for tradedcommodities1.3 Multi Commodity Exchange:-

ABOUT US :- Multi Commodity Exchange of India Ltd. (MCX) is astate-of-the-art demutualised multi commodity futures exchange withpermanent recognition from the Government of India to facilitatenationwide online trading, clearing and settlement operations ofcommodities futures. History :- MCX was incorporated on April 19,2002, and on September 26, 2003, it received permanent recognitionfrom the Government to establish a nationwide online multicommodityexchange. MCX was launched on November 10, 2003, following theGovernments initiative to revitalize the commodity exchangeindustry by allowing demutualised, electronic, national commodityexchanges to trade in all permitted commodities. MCX was formallyinaugurated by Mr. Mukesh Ambani, Chairman of Reliance IndustriesLtd, on November 18, 2003. On March 09, 2012, MCX became Indias 1exchange to be listed. India has had a long history of organizedcommodity derivatives. Historically, such a commodity exchange was;established in 1875 with the derivatives market flourishing in thefollowing years. However, it was with the Government of Indian toif ying in April 2003 the permission for futures trading incommodities that opened the entire commodity spectrum for futuretrading. This epoch-making step has allowed online trading,clearing and settlement operations in commodity future contracts.The incorporation of MCX on 19th April 2002 and its permanentrecognition from the government on 26th September 2003 have becomethe real turning points in the area of commodity futures exchange.MCX, promoted by Financial Technologies (India) Limited, enjoys theconfidence of investors from Indian and international financialsectors like Euro next N.V.,State Bank of India and its associates,National Bank for Agriculture and Rural Development(NABARD), SBILife Insurance, Bank of India, Bank of Baroda, Union Bank of India,Corporation Bank, Canara Bank, HDFC Bank, FID Funds(Mauritius),Merrill Lynch and several others on one hand, and has won the hearits of commodities on the other. With an aim to seamlesslyintegrate with the global commodities ecosystem, MCX has forgedstrategic alliances with leading international exchanges. Product:- Today, MCX offers more than 40commodities across varioussegments such as bullion, energy, ferrous and nonferrous metals anda number of agri commodities on its platform. The futures contractsof MCX have demonstrably brought significant benefits to severalsectors, not only for metals and energy but also for smalleragricultural commodities such as cardamom, menthe oil and soya oil.These futures contracts are found to be unique as they also covercurrency risk, which is inherent in internationally-referredcommodities.

As settlement in MCXs futures contracts is allowed in Indianrupee, traders on this platform do not need to hedge separatelyagainst foreign currency risks.

Global Stock Market:-

What is the Stock Exchange?A stock exchange is a corporation ormutual organization which provides the facilities for stock brokersto trade company stocks and other securities. Stock exchanges alsoprovide facilities for the issue and redemption of securities, aswell as other financial instruments and capital events includingthe payment of income and dividends. The securities traded on astock exchange include shares issued by companies, unit trusts andother pooled investment products as well as bonds. To be able totrade a security on a certain stock exchange, it has to be listedthere.

Usually there is a central location at least for recordkeeping,but trade is less and less linked to such a physical place, asmodern markets are electronic networks, which gives them advantagesof speed and cost of transactions. Trade on an exchange is bymembers only; a stock broker is said to have a seat on theexchange.

A stock exchange is often the most important component of astock market. There is usually no compulsion to issue stock via thestock exchange itself, nor must stock be subsequently traded on theexchange. Such trading is said to be off exchange orover-the-counter. This is the usual way that bonds are traded. Theinitial offering of stocks and bonds to investors is by definitiondone in the primary market and subsequent trading is done in thesecondary market.

Increasingly all stock exchanges are part of a global market forsecurities. Supply and demand in stock markets is driven by variousfactors which, as in all free markets, affect the price of stocks.The French word for stock exchange is bourse.

History of stock exchange:-

In 12th century France the courratiers de change were concernedwith managing and regulating the debts of agricultural communitieson behalf of the banks. As these men also traded in debts, theycould be called the first brokers. In the late 13th centurycommodity traders in Bruges gathered inside the house of a mancalled Van der Burse, and in 1309 they institutionalized this untilnow informal meeting and became the "Bruges Bourse". The ideaspread quickly around Flanders and neighboring counties and"Bourses" soon opened in Ghent and Amsterdam.

In the middle of the 13th century Venetian bankers began totrade in government securities. In 1351 the Venetian Governmentoutlawed spreading rumors intended to lower the price of governmentfunds. There were people in Pisa, Verona, Genoa and Florence whoalso began trading in government securities during the 14thcentury.

This was only possible because these were independent citystates not ruled by a duke but a council of influential citizens.The Dutch later started joint stock companies, which letshareholders invest in business ventures and get a share of theirprofits - or losses. In 1602, the Dutch East India Company issuedthe first shares on the Amsterdam Stock Exchange. It was the firstcompany to issue stocks and bonds.

BRIEF HISTORY OF STOCK:- Do you know that the world's foremostmarketplace New York Stock Exchange (NYSE), started its tradingunder a tree (now known as 68 Wall Street) over 200 years ago?Similarly, India's premier stock exchange Bombay Stock Exchange(BSE) can also trace back its origin to as far as 125 years when itstarted as a voluntary non-profit making association. News on thestock market appears in different media every day. You hear aboutit any time it reaches a new high or a new low, and you hear aboutit daily in statements like 'The BSE Sensitive Index rose 5%today'. Obviously, stocks and stock markets are important. Stocksof public limited companies are bought and sold at a stockexchange. However, what really are stock exchanges? Known also asthe stock market or bourse, a stock exchange is an organizedmarketplace for securities (like stocks, bonds, options) featuredby the centralization of supply and demand for the transaction oforders by member brokers, for institutional and individualinvestors. The exchange makes buying and selling easy. However,where did it all start? The need for stock exchanges developed outof early trading activities in agricultural and other commodities.During the middle Ages, traders found it easier to use credit thatrequired supporting documentation of drafts, notes, and bills ofexchange. The history of the earliest stock exchange, the Frenchstock exchange, may be traced back to 12th century whentransactions occurred in commercial bills of exchange. To controlthis budding market, Phillip, the Fair, of France (1268-1314)created the profession of courtier de change, which was thepredecessor of the French stockbroker. At about the same time, inBruges (a prosperous centre of the low countries of Europe),merchants began gathering in front of the house of the Van DerBuerse family to engage in trading. Soon the name of the familybecame identified with trading and in time, a 'bourse' came tosignify a stock exchange. At the same time, stock exchanges beganto materialize in other trading centre like the Netherlands(Amsterdam Bourse), Frankfurt (the Deutsche Stock Exchange,formerly the Bores) the London Stock Exchange (LSE) in England andMilan (the Boras). In 1773, London stock dealers, who had beenmeeting informally in coffee houses, moved into their own buildingto establish an exchange (see history: London Stock Exchange).Other European exchanges that opened in the 1600s and 1700sincluded those in Belgium, Spain, Portugal, and Sweden. From theearly exchanges for commercial bills and notes, it was an easy andlogical transition to establish stock exchanges for securities.Amsterdam's Bourse was the first to formally begin trading insecurities. Across the Atlantic, in the United States, securitiesmarkets began speculative trading in issues of the new government.By 1791, the nation's first stock exchange was established in thecity of Philadelphia. A year later, in 1792, an exchange was set upin New York City by 24 merchants and brokers, who decided to act asagents for other persons and give preference to each other in theirnegotiations. They did much of their trading under a tree at whatis now 68 Wall Street. That stock exchange grew as the nationbecame industrialized and by 1863, the New York Stock Exchange(NYSE) adopted its present name (see history: New York StockExchange). Today, nearly three thousand companies from all over theworld trade their stocks valued at trillions of dollars here. Atthat time, many stocks that were deemed not well enough for theNYSE were traded outside on the curbs. This so called 'curbtrading' has now become the American Stock Exchange (AMEX) (seehistory: AMEX) . Today, the NYSE and AMEX have been joined by theNASDAQ and hundreds of local and international stock exchanges. Bythe mid-1800s, many countries outside of Europe (including Canadaand Australia) began trading in securities. During the 19th and20th centuries, major exchanges opened in Asia, Eastern Europe, andparts of Africa and Latin America.

2.2 Indian Stock Market :-

The working of stock exchanges in India started in 1875. BSE isthe oldest stock market in India. The history of Indian stocktrading starts with 318 persons taking membership in Native Shareand Stock Brokers Association, which we now know by the name BombayStock Exchange or BSE in short. In 1965, BSE got permanentrecognition from the Government of India. National Stock Exchangecomes second to BSE in terms of popularity. BSE and NSE representthemselves as synonyms of Indian stock market. The history ofIndian stock market is almost the same as the history of BSE.

The 30 stock sensitive index or Sensex was first compiled in1986. The Sensex is compiled based on the performance of the stocksof 30 financially sound benchmark companies. In 1990 the BSEcrossed the 1000 mark for the first time. It crossed 2000, 3000 and4000 figures in 1992. The reason for such huge surge in the stockmarket was the liberal financial policies announced by the thenfinancial minister Dr. Man Mohan Singh.

The up-beat mood of the market was suddenly lost with HarshadMehta scam. It came to public knowledge that Mr. Mehta, also knownas the big-bull of Indian stock market diverted huge funds frombanks through fraudulent means. He played with 270 million sharesof about 90 companies. Millions of small-scale investors becamevictims to the fraud as the Sensex fell flat shedding 570points.

To prevent such frauds, the Government formed The Securities andExchange Board of India, through an Act in 1992. SEBI is thestatutory body that controls and regulates the functioning of stockexchanges, brokers, sub-brokers, portfolio managers investmentadvisors etc. SEBI oblige several rigid measures to protect theinterest of investors. Now with the inception of online trading anddaily settlements the chances for a fraud is nil, says topofficials of SEBI.

Sensex crossed the 5000 mark in 1999 and the 6000 mark in 2000.The 7000 mark was crossed in June and the 8000 mark on September 8in 2005. Many foreign institutional investors (FII) are investingin Indian stock markets on a very large scale. The liberal economicpolicies pursued by successive Governments attracted foreigninstitutional investors to a large scale. Experts now believe theSensex can soar past 14000 marks before 2010.

The unpredictable behavior of the market gave it a tag avolatile market. The factors that affected the market in the pastwere good monsoon, Bharatiya Janatha Partys rise to power etc. Theresult of a cricket match between India and Pakistan alsoaffected.NDA was voted out of power and the Sensex recorded thebiggest fall in a day amidst fears that the Congress-Communistcoalition would stall economic reforms. Later prime minister ManMohan Singhs assurance of reforms with a human face cast off thefears and market reacted sharply to touch the highest ever mark of8500.

India, after United States hosts the largest number of listedcompanies. Global investors now ardently seek India as theirpreferred location for investment. Once viewed with skepticism,stock market now appeals to middle class Indians also. Many Indiansworking in foreign countries now divert their savings to stocks.This recent phenomenon is the result of opening up of onlinetrading and diminished interest rates from banks. The stockbrokersbased in India are opening offices in different countries mainly tocater the needs of Non Resident Indians. The time factor also worksfor the NRIs. They can buy or sell stock online after returningfrom their work places.

The recent incidents that led to growing interest among Indianmiddle class are the initial public offers announced by TataConsultancy Services, Maruti Udyog Limited, ONGC and big names likethat. Good monsoons always raise the market sentiments. A goodmonsoon means improved agricultural produce and more spendingcapacity among rural folk.The bullish run of the stock market canbe associated with a steady growth of around 6% in GDP, the growthof Indian companies to MNCs, large potential of growth in thefields of telecommunication, mass media, education, tourism and ITsectors backed by economic reforms ensure that Indian stock marketcontinues its bull runStock markets refer to a market place whereinvestors can buy and sell stocks. The price at which each buyingand selling transaction takes is determined by the market forces(i.e. demand and supply for a particular stock.

Let us take an example for a better understanding of how marketforces determine stock prices. ABC Co. Ltd. enjoys high investorconfidence and there is an anticipation of an upward movement inits stock price. Therefore, buyers will have to bid a higher pricefor this stock to match the ask price from the seller which willincrease the stock price of ABC Co. Ltd. On the contrary, if thereare more sellers than buyers (i.e. high supply and low demand) forthe stock of ABC Co. Ltd. in the market, its price will falldown.In earlier times, buyers and sellers used to assemble at stockexchanges to make a transaction but now with the dawn of IT, mostof the operations are done electronically and the stock marketshave become almost paperless. Now investors dont have to gather atthe Exchanges, and can trade freely from their home or office overthe phone or through Internet.

One of the oldest stock markets in Asia, the Indian StockMarkets has a 200 years old history.

ACHIEVEMENTS AND MILESTONES:- 1874 With the rapidly developingshare trading business, brokers used to gather at a street (nowwell known as "Dalal Street") for the purpose of transactingbusiness. 1875 "The Native Share and Stock Brokers' Association"(also known as "The Bombay Stock Exchange") was established inBombay 1880's Development of cotton mills industry and set up ofmany others 1894 Establishment of "The Ahmadabad Share and StockBrokers' Association" 1880 - 90's Sharp increase in share prices ofjute industries in 1870's was followed by a boom in tea stocks andcoal 1908 "The Calcutta Stock Exchange Association" was formed 1920Madras witnessed boom and business at "The Madras Stock Exchange"was transacted with 100 brokers. 1923 When recession followed,number of brokers came down to 3 and the Exchange was closed down1934 Establishment of the Lahore Stock Exchange 1936 Merger of theLahore Stock Exchange with the Punjab Stock Exchange 1937Re-organization and set up of the Madras Stock Exchange Limited(Pvt.)

Bangalore15. Indore The stock trading historyin India is obscured in the mists of time. Historical records, asand where they exist, rarely speak about business and speculativeactivity except in passing. However, the origin of stock broking inthe country may go back to a time, when shares, debentures, andbonds representing titles to property were first issued on thecondition of transfer from one person to another and the earliestrecord of dealings in securities in India is the East IndiaCompany's loan securities, back in the 18th century. The firststock exchange in India, Bombay Stock Exchange was established in1875 as 'The Native Share and Stockbrokers Association' and hasevolved over the years into its present status as the premier stockexchange in the country. It may be noted that BSE is the oldeststock exchange in Asia, even older than the Tokyo Stock Exchange,which was founded in 1878. The country's second stock exchange wasestablished in Ahmadabad in 1894, followed by the Calcutta StockExchange (CSE). CSE can also trace its origin back to 19th century.From a get together under a 'neem tree' way back in the 1830s, theCSE was formally established in May 1908.

Brokers used toemploy a large number of Mumbai's citizens in their offices,especially for settlement work as large quantities of sharecertificates and other documents had to be physically counted,stored, sorted and delivered. Before electronic trading, a numberof sub-brokers executed orders on the trading floor and hordes ofinvestors used to visit the exchange.

3. Another example of employment generation is the evolution ofsimple homegrown service providers, like the Angadia service, (acourier service peculiar to Mumbai and Gujarat), which was inexistence decades before the advent of the modern-day courierservice. Stockbrokers routinely utilize (yes this is very much invogue even today).

4. Considering the primary importance of Mumbai, both theleading stock exchanges are headquartered in the city. The nation'sregulatory body, the Securities and Exchange Board of India (Sebi),modeled on the lines of the SEC in the USA, is also headquarteredin Mumbai. Both the National Securities Depository Ltd (NSDL) andthe Central Securities Depository Ltd. (CDSL) have their headoffices in Mumbai.

5.

2.3 PESTEL ANALYSIS:- PESTEL analysis stands for "Political,Economic, Social, Technological, Environmental and Legal analysis"and describes a framework of macro-environmental factors used inthe environmental scanning component of strategic management. It isa part of the external analysis when conducting a strategicanalysis or doing market research, and gives an overview of thedifferent macro environmental factors that the company has to takeinto consideration. It is a useful strategic tool for understandingmarket growth or decline, business position, potential anddirection for operations.

PESTLE analysis in order to see the bigger picture, can be asimple or a rather complex task, depending on how much detail isgathered and also how many people are involved as people see thingsdifferently. The six elements form detailed below form a helpfultool for firms for example HR can use this when reviewing astrategy.

The PESTLE analysis can be used for business planning,organisational changes, strategic decision making or marketingpurposes from a departmental or an individual perspective to assistorganisations to identify trends, in potential opportunities andthreats before their competitors or to simply ensure that the basicfactors are not overlooked.

Political factors:- Political factors are how and to what degreea government intervenes in the economy. Specifically, politicalfactors include areas such as tax policy, labour law, environmentallaw, trade restrictions, tariffs, and political stability. Thegovernment plays a big part within the operation of financialservices in terms of specific policy formulation,regulation/legislation and decisions on government spending. Thetax changes have caused concern in the private equity businesswithin that these changes will drive investors out of the marketand reduce the competitiveness and attractiveness of the market forthe private equity investor. The tax has been deferred due tohigher inflation but when the changes take place at a later stagethis will have a knock on effect on terms of increased costs likeVAT, corporation tax and national insurance tax. There is also thethreat of challenge from the Conservative party and if they beatLabour in the next election. This would question the effect theirpolicies would have on the anagal broking for example like theirplan to improve maternity and paternity pay for individuals, whichwill increase company costs. Economic factors:- Economic factorsinclude economic growth, interest rates, exchange rates and theinflation rate. These factors have major impacts on how businessesoperate and make decisions. For example, interest rates affect afirm's cost of capital and therefore to what extent a businessgrows and expands. A stable financial system plays a key role for ahealthy and successful economy. The current turmoil in thefinancial sector is significant to the period immediately beforethe Great Depression of the 1930s. Unemployment is at an all timehigh which should in theory make it easier for to recruit butinstead people in the city do not want to leave their currentpositions to move elsewhere which has a knock on effect forrecruitment. review budgets and some departments have felt arecruitment freeze and others are forced to downsize. Howeverdownsizing may not be the short term answer, they may need toconsider developing their current workforce and increase retentionrates. Social factors:- Social factors include the cultural aspectsand include health consciousness, population growth rate, agedistribution, career attitudes and emphasis on safety. Trends insocial factors affect the demand for a company's products and howthat company operates. Having such schemes in place may incuradditional costs but there are long term benefits which includehigher productivity, raised morale, motivation, engagement andachieving strategic objectives. The work life balance is also animportant issue as many find that work demands get in the way ofother commitments so being aware of different demands on time andenergy has become increasingly difficult to manage within the HRfunction. It has become increasingly important to have familyfriendly policies and flexible work patterns to help employees withother commitments such as community commitments or studying.Technological factors:- Technological factors include technologicalaspects such as R&D activity, automation, technology incentivesand the rate of technological change. They can determine barriersto entry, minimum efficient production level and influenceoutsourcing decisions. Furthermore, technological shifts can affectcosts, quality and lead to innovation. As Internet usage becomesmore widespread, this has encouraged to support the introduction ofa new Human Resources Information System (HRIS) and an onlineportal particularly used for recording CPD. There is a selection ofvideos, pod casts and questionnaires available to enhance theskills of employees which in turn increases productivity. HRmonitor the usage and approach staff who have not accessed theportal in order to encourage them to maximise their potentialwithout much resistance to change. Legal operate within a complexlegal and regulatory environment in which they aim to adhere tobest practice at all times. They seek to maintain the highestbusiness and ethical standards and to mitigate and risks to theirstakeholders. To help them carry out this policy, they have aframework in place to monitor and report risk throughout thecompany. Environmental factors:- Environmental factors includeecological and environmental aspects such as weather, climate, andclimate change, which may especially affect industries such astourism, farming, and insurance. People in general are much moreaware of environmental issues and want to make sure that companiesthat they work for are ethical. Therefore they need to haveincreased measures in place such as CSR policies to satisfyemployee needs. Legal factors:- Legal factors includediscrimination law, consumer law, antitrust law, employment law,and health and safety law.
