No task can be achieved alone, particularly while attempting to finish a project of such magnitude. It took many very special people to facilitate it and support it. Hence, I would like to acknowledge all of their valuable support and convey my humble gratitude to them.

INDUSTRY OVERVIEW

A BRIEF HISTORY OF STOCK EXCHANGES :Do you know that the world's foremost market place New York Stock Exchange (NYSE), started its trading under 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 it started as a voluntary non-profit making association. You hear about it any time it reaches a new high or a new low, and you also hear about it daily in statements like 'The BSE Sensitive Index rose 5% today'. Obviously, stocks and stock markets are important. Stocks of public limited companies are bought and sold at a stock exchange. But what really are stock exchanges? Known also as News on the stock market appears in different media every day. The stock market or bourse, a stock exchange is an organized market place for securities (like stocks, bonds, options) featured by the centralization of supply and demand for the transaction of orders by member brokers, for institutional and individual investors. The exchange makes buying and selling easy. For example, you don't have to actually go to a stock exchange, say, BSE - you can contact a broker, who does business with the BSE, and he or she will buy or sell your stock on your behalf. All stock exchanges perform similar functions with respect to the listing, trading, and clearing of securities, differing only in their administrative machinery for handling these functions. Most stock exchanges are auction markets, in which prices are determined by competitive bidding. Trading may occur on a continuous auction basis, may involve brokers buying from and selling to dealers. In certain types of stock or it may be conducted through specialists dealing in a particular stock. But where did it all start? The need for stock exchanges developed out of early trading activities in agricultural and other commodities. During the middle Ages, traders found it easier to use credit that required supporting documentation of drafts, notes and bills of exchange. The history of the earliest stock exchange, the French stock exchange, may be traced back to 12th century when transactions occurred in commercial bills of exchange. The first stock exchange in India, Bombay Stock Exchange was established in 1875 as 'The Native Share and Stockbrokers Association' and has evolved over the years into its present status as the premier stock exchange in the country. It may be noted that BSE is the oldest stock

exchange in Asia, even older than the Tokyo Stock Exchange, which was founded in 1878. The country's 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. India's 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 recognized stock exchanges Mumbai (BSE, NSE and OTC), Calcutta, Delhi, Chennai, Ahmedabad, Bangalore, Bhubaneswar, 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, computerized organizations. Computerized networks also made it possible to connect to each other and have fostered the growth of an open, global securities market. Realizing there is untapped market of investors who want to be able to execute their own trades when it suits them, brokers have taken their trading rooms to the Internet. Known as online brokers, they allow you to buy and sell shares via Internet. Online Trading is a service offered on the Internet for purchase and sale of shares. In the real world, you place orders on your stockbroker either verbally (personally or telephonically) or in a written form (fax). In Online Trading, you will access a stockbroker's website through your internet-enabled PC and place orders through the broker's internet-based trading engine. These orders are routed to the Stock Exchange without manual intervention and executed thereon in a matter of a few seconds. There are 2 types of online trading service: discount brokers and full service online broker. Discount online brokers allow you to trade via Internet at reduced rates. Some provide quality research, other dont. Full service online brokerage is linked to existing brokerages. These brokers allow their clients to place online orders with the option of talking/ chatting to brokers if advice is needed. Brokerage rates here are higher.

LIMITATIONS OF THE PROJECT :

Services of competitors :- We cannot give proper comment on competitors services till we use it. But I try to collect as accurate information as possible. As we all know services are intangible and we cannot predict its quality, it is a thing to feel not to see.

No proper assurance of right information :- The main data sources are websites, telephonic information and offices visit.

The data on websites might be possible, not get updated. The marketing person might be possible, is not through with all concepts to which I contacted. Sometimes, they try to hide information.

Lack of awareness of Stock market :- Since the area is not known before it takes lot of time in convincing people to start investing in shares primarily in IPOs. Mostly people comfortable with traditional brokers :- As people are doing trading from their respective brokers, they are quite comfortable to trade via phone. Lack of Techno Savvy people and poor Internet penetration :- Since most of the people are quite experienced and also they are not techno savvy. Also Internet penetration is poor in India.

Some respondents are unwilling to talk :- Some respondents either do not have time or willing does not respond, as they are quite annoyed with the phone call. Inaccurate Leads :- Sometimes leads are provided which had error in it which varies from only 5 digit phone number to wrong phone number Misleading concepts :- Some people think that Shares are too risky and just another name of gamble but they dont know its not at all that risky for long investors.

SCOPE OF THE STUDY :These are some of the following scope of the study :1. The present study can be extended to assess the present marketing condition of stock market. 2. The study can be used to design a proper product, price, place & promotional strategy for stock market. 3.

This study can be applied to find out an effective distribution channel to enhance the sale of by-product of ANGEL BROKING.

FINDING, CONCLUSION & RECOMMANDATIONS

On surveying various people who are involved in share trading both as trader as well as investor, we found that brokerage is the most important factor on which people select / opt a broking house, followed by image , convenience in trading , customer service, features, tips & suggestion & AMC. What is interesting to note is the weighted contribution of these factors towards decision making. Although brokerage leads the pack it has only 19% contribution, and is closely followed by broking houses image with 18% and convenience in trade with 16%. AMC & tips & suggestions having only 10% contribution each towards decision making end up the pack. On surveying ANGEL BROKING Customer why they opted for same, we got to know it was because of image ANGEL BROKING carries in the market, followed by its competitive brokerage, convenience in trade, features, customer service, tips and suggestions, and AMC. Angel Broking Continuous increases its growth percentage as shown in the Graph & becomes one of the Indias Topmost Online Trading Service Provider. CONCLUSION :In online trading ANGEL BROKING have mainly competition with icicidirect.com, HDFCsec.com, 5Paisa.com India bulls. ANGEL BROKING comes at no. 2 retail broker. It has an advantage of being in this industry for more than 8 decades. It has launched its website in 2000 and was among the first player in the online share trading. The ANGEL BROKING has decided to spend its advertisement budget through four media i.e. Television, Print, Web and Outlets. Mr. Boman Irani was the first brand ambassador for ANGEL BROKING on television media. From the above analysis we can point out some points:1. ANGEL BROKING account opening charges are little higher than other competitors. ANGEL BROKING is less flexible to cut down its account opening charges on the other side; some of the brokers are offering free account opening to High Net Worth customers. 2. The charges of Demat account are reasonable at 300 p.a. but India bulls are offering pool account with no Annual Maintenance charges. 3. ANGEL BROKING provides trading in NSE, BSE and Derivatives. It also launched online Mutual Funds & Online IPO Bidding. Arbitrage facility is not available to customers.

4. ANGEL BROKING is the only one that does not have any Demat transaction charges either on buying or selling. 5. Unlimited toll free calls service is provided to customer in ANGEL BROKING.com. 6. ANGEL BROKING accept offline payment from other banks also but icicidirect.com, HDFCsec.com clients have compulsion to open an online account. 7. IPO Online service is better provided in ANGEL BROKING as compared to others. 8. ANGEL BROKING is only broker in which no margin needs to keep. 9. ANGEL BROKING research reports come in client e-mail at free of cost around 5-6 times in a day. But some brokers charged for it and some provide it only at once in a day, while it is paid in Indiabulls, icicidirect.com and 5paisa.com. 10. In brokerage, 5paisa.com have an edge on others with lowest brokerage .25% on delivery and .05% on intraday To sum up, we can say that computerization and automation are not to be avoided. Technology has been able to make the stock markets accessible to every individual. It has also led to positive developments in terms of reduced costs and fewer errors. But, as some experiences have indicated, IT cannot be applied as a panacea for all problems. Regulation and knowledge dissemination are still important. The use of technology should be preceded by a detailed study and assessment of all other alternatives. The key to successful use to technology is the appreciation of its constraints. RECOMMENDATION :We suggest following measures, which ANGEL BROKING could take so as to take on heavy competition from INDIABULLS and ICICIDIRECT.COM 1. To identify regions where promotions are required. ANGEL BROKING lacks visibility in northern region where as it is a well known name in western region. Even then, its promotional campaign focuses on western region where as northern region is still waiting for promotional campaigns. 2. Try to reduce cost, so that benefits can be passed on to customers. Senior managers at ANGEL BROKING keep on telling that it is difficult to reduce cost, because of services we provide. But the fact is, India being a price sensitive market, people at times go for monetary benefits rather than for long term non- monetary benefits. 3. If charges cant be reduced because of costs involved, make the services customized, so that services are provided to only those customers who are willing to pay the price for

services they are getting and let the other customers enjoy costs benefits without getting services. 4. Concept of margin funding should be introduced, as more and more people are asking for it.
