INTRODUCTION OF KARVY STOCK BOROKING 
INTRODUCTION 
“Success is a journey, not a destination.” If we look for examples to prove this quote then we 
can find many but there is none like that of KARVY. Back in the year 1981, five people 
created history by establishing karvy and company which is today known as karvy, the 
largest financial service provider of India. 
Success sutras of Karvy: 
The success story of karvy is driven by 8 success sutras adopted by it namely trust, integrity, 
dedication, commitment, enterprises, hard work and team play, learning and innovation, 
empathy and humility. These are the values that bind success with karvy. 
Vision of Karvy: 
To achieve & sustain market leadership, Karvy shall aim for complete customer satisfaction,

Mission statement: 
“O ur mission is to be a leading and preferred service provider to our customers, and we aim 
to achieve this leadership position by building an innovative, enterprising, and technology 
driven organization which will set highest standards of service and business ethics.” 
Company overview: 
Karvy was established as karvy and company by five chartered accountants during the year 
1979-80, and then its work was confined to audit and taxation only. Later on it diversified
7 
into financial and accounting services during the year 1981-82 with a capital of Rs. 150000. 
It achieved its first milestone after its first investment in technology. Karvy became a known 
name during the year 1985-86 when it forayed into capital market as registrar. 
EVOLUTION OF KARVY 
It is well said that success is a journey not a destination and we can see it being proved by 
karvy. Under this section we will see that how this “karvy and company” of 1980 became 
“karvy” of 2014. Karvy blossomed with the setting up of its first branch at Mumbai during 
the year 1987-88. The turning point came in the year 1989 when it decided to enter into one 
of the not only emerging rather potential field too i.e.; stock broking. It added the feather of 
stock broking into its cap. At the same time it become the member of Hyderabad Stock 
Exchange through association firm karvy securities ltd and then karvy never looked 
back…….it went on adding services one after another, it entered into retail stock broking in 
the year 1990. Karvy investor services centers were set up in the year 1992. Karvy which 
already enjoyed a wide network through its investor services centers, entered into financial 
product distribution services in the year 1993. One year more and karvy was now dealing into 
mutual fund services too in the year 1994 but it didn’t stopped there, it stepped into corporate 
finance and investment banking in the year 1995. 
Karvy’s strategy has always been being the first entrant in the market. Karvy again hit the 
limelight by becoming the first registrar in the country to be awarded ISO 9002 in the year 
1997. Then it stepped into the other most happening sectors I.e.; IT enables services by 
establishing its own BPO unit’s and at a gap of just one year it look the path of e-Business 
through its website www.karvy.com. Then it entered into insurance services in the year 2001 
with the launch of its retail arm “kar vy” the fin polis: your personal finance advisor”. Then 
in the year 2002 it launched its PCG (Private Client Group) which looks after its High Net 
worth Individuals and maintain their portfolio and provides them with other financial 
services. In the year 2003, it commenced secondary debt and WDM trading. 
It was a decade which saw many Indian companies going global…so why the largest 
financial services provider of India should lag behind? Hence, karvy launched “karvy global 
services limited” after entering into a joint venture with the Computershare, Australia in the
8 
year 2004. The year 2004 also saw karvy entering into commodities marketing though karvy 
comrade. 
Year 2005 saw karvy established a separate branch for its insurance services under the head 
“karvy insurance broking ltd” and in the same year, after being impressed with the rapid 
growth of karvy stock broking limited, PCG group of Hong Kong acquired 25% stake at 
KSBL. In the year 2006, karvy entered into one of the hottest sector of present time i.e. real 
estate through Karvy realty& services (India) ltd. Hence, we can see now karvy being 
established as the largest financial service provider of the country.

INTRODUCTION TO STOCK MARKET 
Stock markets refer to a market place where in invertor can buy and sell stocks. The price at 
which each buying and selling transaction takes is determination by the market forces (i,e. 
demand and supply for a particular stock ). 
Let us take an example for a better understanding of how market forces determine stock 
prices. ABC Co. Ltd. Enjoys high investors’ confidence and there is an anticipation of an 
upward movement in its stocks prices. More and more people would want to buy this stock 
(I.e., high demand) and very few people will want to sell this stock at current market price. 
Therefore, buyers will have to bid a higher prices for this stock to match the ask prices from 
the seller which will increase the stock prices of ABC Co. Ltd. On the contrary, if there are 
more sellers than buyers for the stock of ABC Co. Ltd. In the market, its price will fall down. 
In earlier times, buyers and sellers used to assemble at stock exchange to make a transition 
but now with the dawn of IT, most of the operation are done electronically and the stock 
markets have become almost paperless. Now investors don’t have to gather at the exchange, 
and can trade freely from their home or office over the phone or through Internet. 
 PRIMARY MARKET 
The primary market is the part of the capital market that deals with issuing of 
new securities. Companies, governments or public sector institutions can obtain funds 
through the sale of a new stock or bond issues through primary market. This is typically done 
through an investment bank or finance 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. 
Primary markets create long term instruments through which corporate entities borrow from 
capital market. 
Once issued the securities typically trade on a secondary market such as a stock 
exchange, bond market or derivatives exchange.
28 
FEATURES: 
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." 
 IPO and FPO are two ways to generate capital from public. 
IPO (INITIAL PUBLIC OFFERING) 
Initial public offering (IPO) or stock market launch is a type of public offering where 
shares of stock in a company are sold to the general public, on a securities exchange, for the 
first time. Through this process, a private company transforms into a public company. Initial 
public offerings are used by companies to raise expansion capital, to possibly monetize the 
investments of early private investors, and to become publicly traded enterprises. A company 
selling shares is never required to repay the capital to its public investors. After the IPO, 
when shares trade freely in the open market, money passes between public investors. 
FPO (FOLLOW ON PUBLIC OFFERING) 
FPO is a process by which a company, which is already listed on an exchange, issues new 
shares to the investors or the existing shareholders.
29 
Definition: FPO (Follow on Public Offer) is a process by which a company, which is already 
listed on an exchange, issues new shares to the investors or the existing shareholders, usually 
the promoters. FPO is used by companies to diversify their equity base. 
Description: A company uses FPO after it has gone through the process of an IPO and 
decides to make more of its shares available to the public or to raise capital to expand or pay 
off debt. 
 SECOUNDRY MARKET 
The secondary market, is also called aftermarket, is the financial market in which 
previously issued financial instruments such as stock, bonds options, and futures are bought 
and sold. Another frequent usage of "secondary market" is to refer to loans which are sold by 
a mortgage bank to investors such as Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac. 
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). 
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 loans to stocks, 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 such as the New York Stock Exchange, London Stock 
Exchange and NASDAQ 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 one’s broker-dealer. Loans sometimes trade online 
using a Loan Exchange.

TRADING WITH STOCK MARKET 
This section will introduce us about the process and instruments used to help a customer or a 
client to trade with arcadia securities. This process is almost similar to any other trading 
firm but there will be some difference in the cost of brokerage commission. 
Trading: It is a process by which a customer is given facility to buy and sell share this 
buying and selling can only be done through some broker and this is where Arcadia helps its 
customer. A customer willing to trade with any brokerage house need to have a demat 
account, trading account and saving account with a brokerage firm. Anyone having 
following document can open all the above mentioned account and can start trading. 
Document Required 
 3 photographs ( signed across) 
 Photo Identification Proof - any of the following - Voter ID/Driving License/Passport. 
 Address Proof any of the following - Voter ID/Driving License/ Passport/ Bank 
statement or pass book sealed and attestation by bank official/ BSNL landline bill. 
 A crossed Cheque favouring “Karvy Stock Broking”. O f the required amount. The 
amount for Demat as well as trading will be Rs. 900/-(free Demat +900 Trading 
Account) the minimum amount being Rs. 900 a cheque can be given for a larger 
amount. 
 Copy of PAN Card is mandatory. 
 Registration Kit 
 CDSL Demat Kit 
 Bank and address proof declaration. 
 PAN name discrepancy form. 
These documents may not be consumer friendly but it is to avoid illegal transaction and to 
prevent black money this ensures that money invested is accounted. 
Techniques and Instruments for Trading 
The various techniques that are available in the hands of a client are:- 
1. Delivery
31 
2. Intraday 
3. Future 
4. Forwards 
5. Options 
6. swaps 
Basic Requirement for doing Trading 
Trading requires Opening a Demat account. Demat refers to a dematerialized account. 
You need to open a Demat account if you want to buy or sell stocks. So it is just like a bank 
account where actual money is replaced by shares. We need to approach the Depository 
Participants (DP, they are like bank branches), to open Demat account. 
A depository is a place where the stocks of investors are held in electronic form. The 
depository has agents who are called depository participants (DPs). 
Think of it like a bank. The head office where all the technology rests and details of all 
accounts held is like the depository. And the DPs are the branches that cater to individuals. 
There are only two depositories in India – 
 The National Securities Depository Ltd (NSDL) and the 
 Central Depository Services Ltd (CDSL). 
Capital Market Participants 
 Banks 
 Exchanges 
 Clearing Corporations 
 Brokers 
 Custodians 
 Depositories 
 Investors 
 Merchant Bankers
32 
Types of Investors 
 Institutional Investors- MFs / FI / FIIs / Banks 
 Arbitrageurs 
 Hedgers 
 Jobbers 
CASH SEGMENT 
Cash trading is an investment strategy that calls for the investor to make purchases of 
securities on a cash basis only. This is different from the process of trading on margin, where 
the investor makes use of a line of credit extended through a broker. With the cash trading 
method, the investor relies solely on the balance of his or her cash account to purchase stocks, 
bonds, commodities or other investment vehicles. 
INTRADAY 
Intraday trading refers to opening and closing a position in a security in the same trading day. 
This can be buying and selling to capitalize on a potential rise in a security's value or shorting 
and covering the short to capitalize on a potential drop in value. Intraday traders capitalize on 
small moves in the value of a security by using "leverage" or "margin", which basically 
means borrowing money. 
Most day trading accounts are allowed to take an initial position in a security that is 4X the 
value of their account (per securities regulations), but some professional accounts get more 
leverage (i.e. 10X). For instance, a day trader with Rs.10,000 in his/her account can take a 
Rs.40,000 position in a security for day trading purposes. This amount is not allowed to be 
held overnight (only about 2X the value of the account can be held overnight per securities 
regs). The leverage inherent in day trading allows small gains in a position to yield 
meaningful profits (and losses). Most day traders are very strict about cutting losses with 
"stop loss" orders. This limits the potential downside (but not the upside) on any particular 
trade, hence the adage "cut your losses short and let your profits run". With this basic 
strategy, a day trader can be wrong on 50% of his/her trades and still make good money. Day 
trading styles vary from "scalpers", which take positions for only a few minutes, to holding a 
position for most of the day. Some day traders are momentum followers and jump onto any
33 
given move, while others try to identify intraday reversals. Virtually all day traders use 
technical analysis (stock charting) heavily in their decision making. 
DELIVERY 
Delivery Trading is a very secure Trading. If we buy shares today and sell them after 1 day 
then the type of trading is called as Delivery Trading. Share you bought in Delivery option 
can be sold at any time before Market closes. I.e. up to 3.30 pm. If you buy shares With the 
Delivery option, It will be taken as Delivery Trade only if you sell your shares after 1 day 
(may be next day or after a month or after a year, 3 years whenever you sell after 1 day it is 
called delivery Trading) In Delivery Trading, it will also allow you to sell your shares 
within 1 day also (may be within 1 sec, 1 hour, Before market close). But if you sell the 
shares which were bought with Delivery option within 1 day(may be within 1 sec, 1 hour, 
Before market close) would not be taken as a Delivery Trading and would be taken as 
Intraday Trading. All the brokerages for such Trade will be charged as per intraday 
brokerage charges (0.02% to 0.04%). Therefore if buy a securities with Delivery Trading 
option we can also sell it in Intraday. 
The main advantage of Delivery Trading is that, the Loss of Fear of Money is very less 
when compared with Intraday Trading. 
The main disadvantage of Delivery Trading is that, the brokerage charged by Share Broking 
Companies is very high for Delivery Trading. It is around 0.2% to 0.4%. And in this type of 
Trade profit will increase slowly.

FUTURE 
A financial contract obligating the buyer to purchase an asset (or the seller to sell an asset), 
such as a physical commodity or a financial instrument, at a predetermined future date and 
price. Futures contracts detail the quality and quantity of the underlying asset; they are 
standardized to facilitate trading on a futures exchange. Some futures contracts may call for 
physical delivery of the asset, while others are settled in cash. The futures markets are 
characterized by the ability to use very high leverage relative to stock markets. 
Futures can be used either to hedge or to speculate on the price movement of the underlying 
asset. For example, a producer of corn could use futures to lock in a certain price and reduce 
risk (hedge). On the other hand, anybody could speculate on the price movement of corn by 
going long or short using futures 
OPTION 
An option is a contract that gives the buyer the right, but not the obligation, to buy or sell an 
underlying asset at a specific price on or before a certain date. An option, just like a stock or 
bond, is a security. It is also a binding contract with strictly defined terms and properties.
35 
In finance, an option is a contract which gives the buyer (the owner) the right, but not the 
obligation, to buy or sell an underlying asset or instrument at a specified strike price on or 
before a specified date. The seller has the corresponding obligation to fulfill the transaction 
– that is to sell or buy – if the buyer (owner) "exercises" the option. The buyer pays a 
premium to the seller for this right. An option which conveys to the owner the right to buy 
something at a specific price is referred to as a call; an option which conveys the right of the 
owner to sell something at a specific price is referred to as a put. 
A. CALL: - A call option is an option contract in which the holder (buyer) has the right 
(but not the obligation) to buy a specified quantity of a security at a specified price 
(strike price) within a fixed period of time (until its expiration). 
For the writer (seller) of a call option, it represents an obligation to sell the underlying 
security at the strike price if the option is exercised. The call option writer is paid a 
premium for taking on the risk associated with the obligation. 
B. PUT: - An option contract giving the owner the right, but not the obligation, to sell a 
specified amount of an underlying asset at a set price within a specified time. The 
buyer of a put option estimates that the underlying asset will drop below the exercise 
price before the expiration date.

SUGGESTION 
1. Working as an internship in karvy stock broking Ltd, Infelt that karvy can go for 
promotional activities for gaining more market share as karvy’s competitors are doing 
the same. 
2. Karvy should try to minimize it’s brokerage. 
3. The company should organize the seminars and similar activities to enhance the 
knowledge of prospective and exiting customers, so that they can feel more 
comfortable while investing in stock market. 
4. They should upgrade their technology. As their competitor already have advance 
version of technology.
40 
CONCLUSION 
While doing my summer internship program I came to a conclusion that this training has 
helped me much in getting the thorough knowledge about some of the stock broking 
companies, how these companies are competing against each other for getting the more 
market share, how they are applying different marketing strategies to attract customers and 
making them satisfied. 
I came to know about the demat account, its benefits, how does it provides services the 
customers of which I was totally ignorant when I started my project. 
I gathered much more knowledge about Karvy Stock Broking Ltd. Its services, its strategies, 
and how every employees of it work hard to achieve the organizational goal I.e. achieve the 
maximum market share through customer satisfaction. 
 One thing that I noticed during my field work that many people of INDORE not 
much more awarded about the various financial products and services of Karvy 
which had to be there. They are ignorant about demat account and lack of 
knowledge and information about it scared them of investing money in share 
market. So to generate awareness among them advertising campaign can result 
in fruitful results. Only a limited percentage of people are enjoying investing 
money in share market in INDORE 
. 
 Lastly and not the least as a coin has two sides, Karvy has favourable and 
unfavourable aspects. The favourable aspect is that it provides lot of benefits to 
its customers which some of its competitors fail to provide and again less 
awareness about it among people is its negative side which hinders them to 
invest their fund confidently.

EVOLUTION OF KARVY It is well said that success is a journey not a destination and we can see it being proved by karvy.

  • 28. 27 INTRODUCTION TO STOCK MARKET Stock markets refer to a market place where in invertor can buy and sell stocks. The price at which each buying and selling transaction takes is determination by the market forces (i,e. demand and supply for a particular stock ). Let us take an example for a better understanding of how market forces determine stock prices. ABC Co. Ltd. Enjoys high investors’ confidence and there is an anticipation of an upward movement in its stocks prices. More and more people would want to buy this stock (I.e., high demand) and very few people will want to sell this stock at current market price. Therefore, buyers will have to bid a higher prices for this stock to match the ask prices from the seller which will increase the stock prices of ABC Co. Ltd. On the contrary, if there are more sellers than buyers for the stock of ABC Co. Ltd. In the market, its price will fall down. In earlier times, buyers and sellers used to assemble at stock exchange to make a transition but now with the dawn of IT, most of the operation are done electronically and the stock markets have become almost paperless. Now investors don’t have to gather at the exchange, and can trade freely from their home or office over the phone or through Internet.  PRIMARY MARKET The primary market is the part of the capital market that deals with issuing of new securities. Companies, governments or public sector institutions can obtain funds through the sale of a new stock or bond issues through primary market. This is typically done through an investment bank or finance 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. Primary markets create long term instruments through which corporate entities borrow from capital market. Once issued the securities typically trade on a secondary market such as a stock exchange, bond market or derivatives exchange.
  • 29. 28 FEATURES: 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."  IPO and FPO are two ways to generate capital from public. IPO (INITIAL PUBLIC OFFERING) Initial public offering (IPO) or stock market launch is a type of public offering where shares of stock in a company are sold to the general public, on a securities exchange, for the first time. Through this process, a private company transforms into a public company. Initial public offerings are used by companies to raise expansion capital, to possibly monetize the investments of early private investors, and to become publicly traded enterprises. A company selling shares is never required to repay the capital to its public investors. After the IPO, when shares trade freely in the open market, money passes between public investors. FPO (FOLLOW ON PUBLIC OFFERING) FPO is a process by which a company, which is already listed on an exchange, issues new shares to the investors or the existing shareholders.
  • 30. 29 Definition: FPO (Follow on Public Offer) is a process by which a company, which is already listed on an exchange, issues new shares to the investors or the existing shareholders, usually the promoters. FPO is used by companies to diversify their equity base. Description: A company uses FPO after it has gone through the process of an IPO and decides to make more of its shares available to the public or to raise capital to expand or pay off debt.  SECOUNDRY MARKET The secondary market, is also called aftermarket, is the financial market in which previously issued financial instruments such as stock, bonds options, and futures are bought and sold. Another frequent usage of "secondary market" is to refer to loans which are sold by a mortgage bank to investors such as Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac. 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). 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 loans to stocks, 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 such as the New York Stock Exchange, London Stock Exchange and NASDAQ 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 one’s broker-dealer. Loans sometimes trade online using a Loan Exchange.
  • 31. 30 TRADING WITH STOCK MARKET This section will introduce us about the process and instruments used to help a customer or a client to trade with arcadia securities. This process is almost similar to any other trading firm but there will be some difference in the cost of brokerage commission. Trading: It is a process by which a customer is given facility to buy and sell share this buying and selling can only be done through some broker and this is where Arcadia helps its customer.

Techniques and Instruments for Trading The various techniques that are available in the hands of a client are:- 1. Delivery
  • 32. 31 2. Intraday 3. Future 4. Forwards 5. Options 6. swaps Basic Requirement for doing Trading Trading requires Opening a Demat account. Demat refers to a dematerialized account. You need to open a Demat account if you want to buy or sell stocks. So it is just like a bank account where actual money is replaced by shares. We need to approach the Depository Participants (DP, they are like bank branches), to open Demat account. A depository is a place where the stocks of investors are held in electronic form. The depository has agents who are called depository participants (DPs). Think of it like a bank. The head office where all the technology rests and details of all accounts held is like the depository. And the DPs are the branches that cater to individuals. There are only two depositories in India –  The National Securities Depository Ltd (NSDL) and the  Central Depository Services Ltd (CDSL). Capital Market Participants  Banks  Exchanges  Clearing Corporations  Brokers  Custodians  Depositories  Investors  Merchant Bankers
  • 33. 32 Types of Investors  Institutional Investors- MFs / FI / FIIs / Banks  Arbitrageurs  Hedgers  Jobbers CASH SEGMENT Cash trading is an investment strategy that calls for the investor to make purchases of securities on a cash basis only. This is different from the process of trading on margin, where the investor makes use of a line of credit extended through a broker. With the cash trading method, the investor relies solely on the balance of his or her cash account to purchase stocks, bonds, commodities or other investment vehicles. INTRADAY Intraday trading refers to opening and closing a position in a security in the same trading day. This can be buying and selling to capitalize on a potential rise in a security's value or shorting and covering the short to capitalize on a potential drop in value. Intraday traders capitalize on small moves in the value of a security by using "leverage" or "margin", which basically means borrowing money. Most day trading accounts are allowed to take an initial position in a security that is 4X the value of their account (per securities regulations), but some professional accounts get more leverage (i.e. 10X). For instance, a day trader with Rs.10,000 in his/her account can take a Rs.40,000 position in a security for day trading purposes. This amount is not allowed to be held overnight (only about 2X the value of the account can be held overnight per securities regs). The leverage inherent in day trading allows small gains in a position to yield meaningful profits (and losses). Most day traders are very strict about cutting losses with "stop loss" orders. This limits the potential downside (but not the upside) on any particular trade, hence the adage "cut your losses short and let your profits run". With this basic strategy, a day trader can be wrong on 50% of his/her trades and still make good money. Day trading styles vary from "scalpers", which take positions for only a few minutes, to holding a position for most of the day. Some day traders are momentum followers and jump onto any

DELIVERY Delivery Trading is a very secure Trading. If we buy shares today and sell them after 1 day then the type of trading is called as Delivery Trading. Share you bought in Delivery option can be sold at any time before Market closes. I.e. up to 3.30 pm. If you buy shares With the Delivery option, It will be taken as Delivery Trade only if you sell your shares after 1 day (may be next day or after a month or after a year, 3 years whenever you sell after 1 day it is called delivery Trading) In Delivery Trading, it will also allow you to sell your shares within 1 day also (may be within 1 sec, 1 hour, Before market close). But if you sell the shares which were bought with Delivery option within 1 day(may be within 1 sec, 1 hour, Before market close) would not be taken as a Delivery Trading and would be taken as Intraday Trading. All the brokerages for such Trade will be charged as per intraday brokerage charges (0.02% to 0.04%). Therefore if buy a securities with Delivery Trading option we can also sell it in Intraday. The main advantage of Delivery Trading is that, the Loss of Fear of Money is very less when compared with Intraday Trading. The main disadvantage of Delivery Trading is that, the brokerage charged by Share Broking Companies is very high for Delivery Trading. It is around 0.2% to 0.4%. And in this type of Trade profit will increase slowly.

Kotak Securities ltd. 0.03% 0.30% FUTURE A financial contract obligating the buyer to purchase an asset (or the seller to sell an asset), such as a physical commodity or a financial instrument, at a predetermined future date and price. Futures contracts detail the quality and quantity of the underlying asset; they are standardized to facilitate trading on a futures exchange. Some futures contracts may call for physical delivery of the asset, while others are settled in cash. The futures markets are characterized by the ability to use very high leverage relative to stock markets. Futures can be used either to hedge or to speculate on the price movement of the underlying asset. For example, a producer of corn could use futures to lock in a certain price and reduce risk (hedge). On the other hand, anybody could speculate on the price movement of corn by going long or short using futures OPTION An option is a contract that gives the buyer the right, but not the obligation, to buy or sell an underlying asset at a specific price on or before a certain date. An option, just like a stock or bond, is a security. It is also a binding contract with strictly defined terms and properties.
  • 36. 35 In finance, an option is a contract which gives the buyer (the owner) the right, but not the obligation, to buy or sell an underlying asset or instrument at a specified strike price on or before a specified date. The seller has the corresponding obligation to fulfill the transaction – that is to sell or buy – if the buyer (owner) "exercises" the option. The buyer pays a premium to the seller for this right. An option which conveys to the owner the right to buy something at a specific price is referred to as a call; an option which conveys the right of the owner to sell something at a specific price is referred to as a put. A. CALL: - A call option is an option contract in which the holder (buyer) has the right (but not the obligation) to buy a specified quantity of a security at a specified price (strike price) within a fixed period of time (until its expiration). For the writer (seller) of a call option, it represents an obligation to sell the underlying security at the strike price if the option is exercised. The call option writer is paid a premium for taking on the risk associated with the obligation. B. PUT: - An option contract giving the owner the right, but not the obligation, to sell a specified amount of an underlying asset at a set price within a specified time. The buyer of a put option estimates that the underlying asset will drop below the exercise price before the expiration date. 5

  • 40. 39 SUGGESTION 1. Working as an internship in karvy stock broking Ltd, Infelt that karvy can go for promotional activities for gaining more market share as karvy’s competitors are doing the same. 2. Karvy should try to minimize it’s brokerage. 3. The company should organize the seminars and similar activities to enhance the knowledge of prospective and exiting customers, so that they can feel more comfortable while investing in stock market. 4. They should upgrade their technology. As their competitor already have advance version of technology.
  • 41. 40 CONCLUSION While doing my summer internship program I came to a conclusion that this training has helped me much in getting the thorough knowledge about some of the stock broking companies, how these companies are competing against each other for getting the more market share, how they are applying different marketing strategies to attract customers and making them satisfied. I came to know about the demat account, its benefits, how does it provides services the customers of which I was totally ignorant when I started my project. I gathered much more knowledge about Karvy Stock Broking Ltd. Its services, its strategies, and how every employees of it work hard to achieve the organizational goal I.e. achieve the maximum market share through customer satisfaction.  One thing that I noticed during my field work that many people of INDORE not much more awarded about the various financial products and services of Karvy which had to be there. They are ignorant about demat account and lack of knowledge and information about it scared them of investing money in share market. So to generate awareness among them advertising campaign can result in fruitful results. Only a limited percentage of people are enjoying investing money in share market in INDORE .  Lastly and not the least as a coin has two sides, Karvy has favourable and unfavourable aspects. The favourable aspect is that it provides lot of benefits to its customers which some of its competitors fail to provide and again less awareness about it among people is its negative side which hinders them to invest their fund confidently.
