History of Stock Trading in India

History of Stock Trading in India Introduction Background of Exchanges The stock trading history in India is obscured in the mists of time. Historical records, as and where they exist, rarely speak about business and speculative activity except in passing. However, the origin of stock broking in the country may go back to a time, when shares, debentures and bonds representing titles to property were first issued on the condition of transfer from one person to another and the earliest record of dealings in securities in India is the East India Companys loan securities, way back in the 18th century. The first stock exchange in India, Tokyo Stock Exchange, which was founded in 1878. The countrys second stock exchange was established in Ahmedabad in 1894, followed by the Calcutta Stock Exchange (CSE). CSE can also trace its origin back to 19th century. From a get together under a neem tree way back in the 1830s, the CSE was formally established in May 1908. Indias other major stock exchange National Stock Exchange (NSE), promoted by leading financial institutions, was established in April 1993. Over the years, several stock exchanges have been established in the major cities of India. There are now 23 recognised stock exchanges — Mumbai (BSE, NSE and OTC), Calcutta, Delhi, Chennai, Ahmedabad, Bangalore, Bhubhaneswar, Coimbatore, Guwahati, Hyderabad, Jaipur, Kochi, Kanpur, Ludhiana, Mangalore, Patna, Pune, Rajkot, Vadodara, Indore and Meerut. Today, most of the global stock exchanges have become highly efficient, computerised organisations. Computerised networks also made it possible to connect to each other and have fostered the growth of an open, global securities market. Though Stock Broking was practiced in Calcutta as early as 1836, the members of the broking profession had neither any code of conduct for their guidance, nor any permanent place for congregation. The centre of their activity was near a neem tree, where at present, stands the offices of the Chartered Bank (now known as Standard Chartered) on Netaji Subhas Road, Calcutta. In 1905, Chartered Bank began to construct their own building, which led brokers to shift the arena of their operation, the neighbourhood of the recent Allahabad Bank. The brokers had no shelter and business was carried on in the open place. The inconvenience of such trading, prompted brokers to organise themselves and in May 1908, an association was formed under the name and style of the Calcutta Stock Exchange Association at 2, China Bazar Street. At the time of incorporation in 1908, the Stock Exchange had 150 members. Today the total membership has risen to more than 900, which contains several corporate and institutional members. The number of companies listed on the Exchange is more than 3,500. The Annual turnover of the Exchange in 1997-98 was to the tune of Rs, 1,78,779 crores. The Calcutta Stock Exchange has been granted permanent recognition by the Central Government with effect from April 14, 1980 under the relevant provisions of the Securities Contracts (Regulation) Act, 1956, with a view to render useful service to investors. In December 1993, SEBI directed the stock exchanges to discontinue the traditional system of carry forward of transactions (badla). Subsequently, it proposed an alternative system in March 1994, but no agreement could be reached on implementing this system. In February 1995, SEBI set up the G. S. Patel Committee (GSPC) to review the system of carry forward transactions. The GSPC submitted its report in March 1995. SEBI adopted the system recommended by the GSPC with some modifications in its decisions of July 27, 1995 and October 5, 1995. This Revised Carry Forward System (RCFS) was implemented in the BSE in January 1996, but the other exchanges in which the traditional carry forward system had been prevalent before December 1993 did not come forward to adopt the RCFS. A year after the implementation of RCFS, the President of the BSE wrote to SEBI in January 1997 requesting a relaxation of certain aspects of the RCFS to make it more practical and efficient. In its meeting of March 27, 1997, SEBI reviewed the entire sequence of developments relating to the RCFS and specifically noted that while introducing the RCFS in July 1995, SEBI had decided that the implementation of the revised carry forward system would be reviewed periodically by the Board, the first review being after three months. History of BSE An informal group of 22 stockbrokers began trading under a banyan tree opposite the Town Hall of Bombay from the mid-1850s, each investing a (then) princely amount of Rupee 1. This banyan tree still stands in the Horniman Circle Park, Mumbai. The informal group of stockbrokers organized themselves as the The Native Share and Stockbrokers Association which, in 1875, was formally organized as the Bombay Stock Exchange (BSE). In January 1899, the stock exchange moved into the Brokers Hall after it was inaugrated by James M Maclean. After the First World War, the BSE was shifted to an old building near the Town Hall. In 1928, the plot of land on which the BSE building now stands (at the intersection of Dalal Street, Bombay Samachar Marg and Hammam Street in downtown Mumbai) was acquired, and a building was constructed and occupied in 1930. Premchand Roychand was a leading stockbroker of that time, and he assisted in setting out traditions, conventions, and procedures for the trading of stocks at Bombay Stock Exchange and they are still being followed. Several stock broking firms in Mumbai were family run enterprises, and were named after the heads of the family. The following is the list of some of the initial members of the exchange, and who are still running their respective business. D.S. Prabhudas Company (now known as DSP, and a joint venture partner with Merrill Lynch) Jamnadas Morarjee (now known as JM) Champaklal Devidas (now called Cifco Finance) Brijmohan Laxminarayan In 1956, the Government of India recognized the Bombay Stock Exchange as the first stock exchange in the country under the Securities Contracts (Regulation) Act. The BSE moved into its current premises the Phiroze Jeejeebhoy Towers in 1980. The Bombay Stock Exchange followed the familiar outcry system for stock trading up until 1995, when it was replaced by an electronic (eTrading) system named BOLT, or the BSE OnLine Trading system. In 2005, the status of the exchange changed from an Association of Persons (AoP) to a full fledged corporation under the BSE (Corporatization and Demutualization) Scheme, 2005 (and its name was changed to The Bombay Stock Exchange Limited). BSE-Sensex The BSE SENSEX (also known as the BSE 30) is a value-weighted index composed of 30 scrips, with the base April 1979 = 100. The set of companies which make up the index has been changed only a few times in the last 20 years.

A depository can be compared to a bank. A depository holds securities (like shares, debentures, bonds and units) of investors in electronic form. Besides holding securities, a depository also provides services related to transactions in securities. What are the benefits of depository system? The benefits of participating in a depository are: immediate transfer of securities; no stamp duty on transfer of securities; elimination of risks associated with physical certificates such as bad delivery, fake securities etc; reduction in paperwork involved in transfer of securities; reduction in transaction cost; nomination facility; change in address recorded with Depository Participant (DP) gets registered with all companies in which investor holds securities electronically, eliminating the need to correspond with each of them separately; transmission of securities is done by DP, eliminating correspondence with companies; convenient method of consolidation of portfolios/accounts; holding investments in equity and debt instruments in a single account. What is a DP? As an investor you open a securities account with a DP. DPs are attached to the depositories very much the same way as commercial banks are attached to RBI. All interactions including account opening, dematerialization, transactions, pledge etc are done through the DP. How do I select a DP? Are all DPs the same? You can select your DP to open a demat account just like you select a bank for opening a savings account. Some of the important factors for selection of a DP can be: Convenience: proximity to the office/residence, business hours. Comfort: reputation of the DP, past association, range of services etc. Find out if the DP is in a position to give the specific service you may need. Cost: the service charges levied by DP and the service standard. What should I do when I want to open an account with a DP? The process of opening an account with a DP is similar to the opening of a bank account. You can approach any DP of your choice and fill up an account opening form. At the time of opening an account, you have tosign an agreement with DP in a National Securities Depository Ltd (NSDL) prescribed standard agreement, which details your rights and duties and those of your DP. All investors have to submit their proof of identity and proof of address along with the prescribed account opening form. Proof of identity: your signature and photograph must be authenticated by an existing demat account holder with the same DP or by a bank manager. Alternatively, you can submit a copy of Passport, Voters ID card, Driving license or PAN card with photograph. Proof of address: you can submit a copy of Passport, Voters ID card, Driving license, PAN card with photograph, Ration card or Bank passbook as proof of address. You must remember to take original documents to the DP for verification. Passport-size photographs Dematerialization: Dematerialization is the process by which a client can get physical certificates converted into electronic balances maintained in his account with the DP. The dematerialization system is an alternative to the physical existence of securities. In this system securities are converted into the electronic form and deposited in a depository account in the investors name. In order to dematerialize certificates, an investor will have to first open an account with a DP and then request for the dematerialization of certificates by filling up a Dematerialization Request Form (DRF), which is available with the DP, and submitting the same along with the physical certificates. The investor has to ensure that before the certificates are handed over tothe DP for demat, they are defaced by marking Surrendered for Dematerialization on the face of the certificates. Features: Holdings in only those securities that are admitted for dematerialization by National Securities Depository Ltd (NSDL) can be dematerialized. Structure of holding in the securities should match with the account structure of the depository account. Now shares in different order of names can also be dematted. If the shares are in the name of X and Y, the same cannot be dematerialized into the account of either X or Y alone. However if the shares are in the name of X first and Y second, and the account is in the name of Y first and X second, then these shares can be dematerialized in this account. Only those holdings that are registered in the name of the account holder can be dematerialized. Physical shares which have not been transferred and are still there with a transfer deed cannot be dematted. Only a few companies have been given the permission to offer Transfer-cum-Demat. The list of these companies can be viewed here. Can I dematerialized any share certificate? You can dematerialize only those certificates that are already registered in your name and are in the list of securities admitted for dematerialization at NSDL. All the scrips included in SP CNX Nifty and BSE Sensex have already joined NSDL. This list has more than 2,800 companies and is steadily growing. Rematerialization: Rematerialization is the process by which a client can get his electronic holdings converted into physical certificates. The client has to submit the dematerialization request to the DP with whom he has an account along with a Remat request form. The physical shares will be posted by the company directly to the clients. Trades: For all sales made by clients, the shares will have to be given to the broker, so that the Pay In can be made by the broker to the stock exchange concerned. For that its essential that the shares be transferred to the account of the broker well before the deadline date. You must confirm with your broker the settlement date and settlement number and then submit your instructions to your DP. Alsoits important to give the instructions to your DP as early as possible. Pledge: Pledge enables you to obtain loans against your dematerialized shares. So you get liquidity without having to sell your shares. A highly simplified procedure may be availed of for pledging of securities in the electronic mode. The pledged securities continue tobe reflected in the DP account of the clients (pledgor) but the concerned securities are blocked and cannot be used for any transactions. As and when the pledg

Six Sigma Methodology – DMAIC

Introduction to Six SigmaIn the current scenario of planetary competition, the quality, abilities and cognition gives a competitory border to an administration over other administration. It is now an cosmopolitan truth that the end sheet of an administration comprises of end to go universe category maker. Six Sigma methodological analysis is renowned to accomplish these above mentioned ends. The administration that has potency to acquire clients delighted by supplying good quality merchandises and services has the possible to rule over other administrations ( Snee RD, 2004 ) . Harmonizing to General Electric CEO Jack Welch, Six Sigma is â€Å"the most ambitious and potentially rewarding enterprise we have of all time undertaken† ( Breyfogle, 1999 ) . The initial flicker of Six Sigma started in fabrication industries and hints of its application can be traced out in fiscal services, health care ( Snee, 2003 ) . The Six Sigma attack is a systematic attack which follows a predefined tract to better the procedure capableness. Six Sigma methodological analysis is a statistically based attack to minimise fluctuation therefore cut downing defects. Statistical representation of Six Sigma shows the spread of the procedure over a predefined graduated table demoing how good a procedure is executing. Six Sigma methodological analysis focuses on â€Å"processes† . Expected result of a procedure has a step called â€Å"Mean† . Expected result of a procedure has some fluctuation in it. Sigma degree is step of that fluctuation ( Kaushik, et.al. , 2008 ) . It is deserving observing that Six Sigma has got some fuel left in it and it is still constructing impulse with any mark of allowing up ( Hoerl, 2004 ) . Six Sigma novices as a concern scheme and ends with top-down execution, ensuing in impact on net incomes if successfully implemented ( Salzmen et.al. , 2002 ) . Six Sigma purpose is to accomplish 3.4 defects per million chances ( DPMO ) with merely one premise i.e. the procedure average displacement by every bit much as 1.5 standard divergences off the mark ( Walters, 2005 ) . A individual defect chance is a procedure failure that consequences in critical to quality issue to client ( Linderman et.al. , 2003 ) . Harmonizing to Voelkel et.al. , ( 2002 ) , Six Sigma blends right direction, fiscal and methodological elements to do betterment in procedure every bit good as merchandises. Harmonizing to Tomkins ( 1997 ) , Six Sigma is a plan aimed at the close riddance of defects from every merchandise, procedure and dealing. Sig Sigma provides a tract to implement cultural alteration throughout the administration. Large companies are happening six sigma methodological analysis utile in development of corporate concern programs. Business program developed utilizing this methodological analysis rules will take to single undertakings to better the person processes which will hold impact for the company. Both facets acts as a accelerator for cultural alteration and will reflect an individual’s attempts straight over the corporate aims. Six Sigma is a information driven and structured programme that works at a company’s foundation to steer its manner towards making operational excellence ( Darshak, 2008 ) . Six Sigma is an integrating of statistical thought and statistical technology into an bing system of technology application ( Shung et.al. 2012 ) . THE SIX SIGMA METHODOLOGY Six Sigma is based on DMAIC methodological analysis which is an acronym for Define, Measure, Analyze, Improve and Control, it contains a systematic attack to look into the procedure from get downing to coating of the procedure. Six Sigma is a systematic application to better procedure by using the power of different statistical tools which measures the procedures and analyses them to cut down the fluctuation from end product of that procedure ( Gaddam et. al. , 2005 ) . DMAIC comprises of five stages with each stage holding its ain set of tools and deliverables. These five stages are shown in figure 1. The cardinal procedures and cardinal tools that are used in these five stages are shown in table 1. Figure1: DMAIC procedure The Six Sigma practicians assess procedure public presentation utilizing Defects per million chances ( DPMO ) and sigma degree. The Six Sigma is a powerful concern scheme due to the tools used in this are holding direct linkage to concern aims and precedences. If the methodological analysis used is non robust plenty, the solution obtained will non be right and there is a possibility that the job will demo its root once more sooner or later ( Kaushik et. al. , 2008 ) .PhaseKEY TOOLSKEY PROCESSESDEFINEUndertaking Charter Pareto Chart Procedure flow diagram SIPOC diagramSpecify the squad Team charter Brainstorming Specify the demands and outlooks of the client Specify the undertaking boundariesMeasureGauge R & A ; R Statistical procedure controlDevelop a information aggregation program Collect and compare informations Measure the procedure to fulfill customer’s needANALYZEFishbone diagram Process capableness analysis Hypothesis trials Arrested development analysis Failure manner & A ; effects analysisDetermine the fluctuation in the procedure Analyze the fishbone diagram Choice of right hypothesis Prioritize chances for future bettermentIMPROVEDesign of experiment Confirmation and proof surveiesDevelop originative options Better the procedure to extinguish fluctuationsControlControl chartsDevelop a program to supervise and command the improved procedure Control procedure fluctuationsTable 1: DMAIC key tools and procedures We can besides do a procedure flow diagram for execution of Six Sigma methodological analysis as it is a procedure in itself. The procedure flow diagram of Six Sigma methodological analysis is shown in figure 2. Figure 2: Procedure flow diagram of Six Sigma methodological analysis DEFINE PHASE The chief aim of Define stage of DMAIC is to descry the undertaking chance and to formalize that it possesses a breakthrough potency. It is desirable that the undertaking or procedure selected be of import to both client and concern. If the administration has developed its ain concern schemes, the job should be under any of the schemes. Different degree of administration has their set of ends to accomplish. At the managerial degree or top direction degree, the end is to accomplish high return on investing. At the operations degree, end might be to increase the production of the procedure. At the undertaking degree, ends might be to increase the productiveness by cut downing defect degree. One of the first points that sparks the induction of define stage is project charter. This is a papers that contains all the description of the undertaking i.e. range, start and finish day of the months, possible benefits to client, possible fiscal benefits to administration, squad members and their functions, and inside informations of any extra resources that will be utile during the undertaking. The charter should besides turn to the customer’s critical-to-quality features ( CTQs ) that are impacted by the undertaking. The job statement of the undertaking should depict the symptoms of the job non the antecedently known solution or possible causes. The squad should hold sufficient sum of members in it depending upon the undertaking. Each member must make his ain work within the clip provided for that work in the undertaking charter. Use of graphical tools is done in define stage ; some of the commonly used tools include pareto chart, histogram, pie chart, procedure flow diagram ( PFDs ) , value watercourse function ( VSM ) and SIPOC ( Supplier/Input/Process/Output/Customer ) diagrams. These tools provide ocular item and AIDSs in understanding about what needs to be changed in the procedure. The squad will necessitate to fix an action program for the following stage of DMAIC i.e. Measure stage. This readying must include single work assignments and probationary completion day of the months for the following stage. Before traveling to following stage, the squad demand to fix a reappraisal points on which reappraisal would be done. These reappraisal points must go to to these undermentioned:Does the job statement focal point on symptoms of the job?Does job statement contain possible causes or solutions?Does the undertaking has sufficient sum of fiscal impact?Have any obstructions come so far in the manner?A high degree SIPOC map completed or non?A procedure flow diagram completed or non?Proper justification made for undertaking choice or non?Is the team’s action program for Measure stage of DMAIC realistic?MEASURE PHASE The chief aim of Measure stage of DMAIC is to measure the current province of procedure. All the informations needed during the undertaking is collected in this stage on steps of quality, cost and rejection of the procedure. It is of import to make the listing of procedure input variables and procedure end product variables. Process input variables and procedure end product variables must be carefully defined and measured during the Measure stage. One of the of import undertakings is to make up one's mind what and how much sufficient informations is needed to make thorough analysis and apprehension of current procedure. There is pick for informations aggregation i.e. historical informations and current informations. Sometimes the historical information may be deficient as the history can be uncomplete, methods for record maintaining alterations from clip to clip. The current information is holding the same system that is followed today and demand to be rectified. We can besides state the optimal method for informations aggregation is partly from historical informations and partly from current informations. Problem can be selected through historical informations and now farther current informations can be used for informations fiting and analysis. From Gauge R & A ; R survey, the per centum fluctuation for the procedure can be calculated. CTQs of the procedure are identified so that it will be easy to concentrate Six Sigma on countries that will take to greater client satisfaction. In this we have to set up valid and dependable prosodies to assist monitoring advancement towards the defined ends. At the terminal of Measure stage, the squad should update the undertaking charter if required, re-examine the ends and re-evaluate squad. The squad should include new members if they will be valuable in following stages of DMAIC. The squad can besides do few speedy wins extinguishing some non value added stairss in the procedure. The squad will necessitate to fix an action program for the following stage of DMAIC i.e. Analyze stage. Before traveling to following stage, the squad demand to fix a reappraisal points on which reappraisal would be done. These reappraisal points must go to to these undermentioned:Are CTQ features identified?Does Process input and end product variables are listed?Procedure capableness must be documented.Any premises, if any must be documented.Performance criterions defined or non?ANALYZE PHASE The chief aim of Analyze stage of DMAIC is to reason the likely causes of the quality jobs, defects, rhythm clip. It is of import to sort causes in two ways i.e. common causes and conveyable causes. Removal of common cause is done by agencies of altering the procedure and remotion of conveyable cause is done by agencies of riddance of a specific job. The stage begins with benchmarking merchandise public presentation against the best-in-class so that new marks can be set. In analyze stage, statistical tools every bit good as conventional quality techniques like brainstorming, fishbone diagram, root cause analysis, hypothesis testing, procedure capableness analysis, design of experiment ( DOE ) , arrested development analysis, two sample t trial, one sample t trial, failure manners and consequence analysis ( FMEA ) , graphical tools may be used for transporting out analysis. Process capableness analysis is done to mensurate the sigma degree and defects per million chances ( DPMO ) . One can easy happen out the available sum of chances for betterment in the procedure. These Analyze tools are used for both type of informations collected i.e. historical and current informations in the Measure stage. These informations provides hints about the possible causes of the job. These hints have the possible to take to breakthroughs and place precise betterments. Analyze stage is rather of import in Six Sigma methodological analysis as its purpose is to place what causes the defects in each bomber procedure so that they can be modified and hence rectification of procedure can take topographic point either by redesigning the merchandise or re-engineering the procedure.
