major institutions which are involved in the security market are performing the role of the
intermediaries for “Buyers” and “Sellers” in the market. The service provided by the
mediator is easy transaction between two parties.

Before 1998 the security market was dealing in physical format. There were
share brokers who performed the job of the intermediaries between the two parties. The
main markets were the stock exchanges situated in different parts of the country. The
brokers were purchasing and selling the securities on behalf of the investors. The major
stock exchanges are as follow.

2.1.1 NATIONAL STOCK EXCHANGE {N.S.E.}:-

NSE was set up in 1993 at Delhi to encourage stock exchange reforms


through the system modernization and competition. The NSE was following the screen
based trading system. The system through which the NSE is trading is known as the NEAT
[National Exchange for Automated Trading.]. It allows members across the country to trade
simultaneously and with full efficiency.

on the NSE where as on BSE on the same day 5999 companies were traded. But since

S.K. Patel Institute of Management & Computer Studies 12


Report on ICICI Web Trade Ltd.

ICICI Bank is India's second-largest bank with total assets of about Rs.167659 crore
and a network of over 560 branches and offices and about 1900 ATMs. ICICI Bank offers a
wide range of banking products and financial services to corporate and retail customers
through a variety of delivery channels and through its specialised subsidiaries and affiliates
in the areas of investment banking, life and non-life insurance, venture capital and asset
management. ICICI Bank's equity shares are listed in India on stock exchanges at Kolkata
and Vadodara, the Stock Exchange, Mumbai and the National Stock Exchange of India
Limited and its American Depositary Receipts (ADRs) are listed on the New York Stock
Exchange (NYSE).

ICICI Bank was originally promoted in 1994 by ICICI Limited, an Indian financial
institution, and was its wholly-owned subsidiary. ICICI's shareholding in ICICI Bank was
reduced to 46% through a public offering of shares in India in fiscal 1998, an equity
offering in the form of ADRs listed on the NYSE in fiscal 2000, ICICI Bank's acquisition
of Bank of Madura Limited in an all-stock amalgamation in fiscal 2001, and secondary
market sales by ICICI to institutional investors in fiscal 2001 and fiscal 2002. ICICI was
formed in 1955 at the initiative of the World Bank, the Government of India and
representatives of Indian industry. The principal objective was to create a development
financial institution for providing medium-term and long-term project financing to Indian
businesses. In the 1990s, ICICI transformed its business from a development financial
institution offering only project finance to a diversified financial services group offering a

S.K. Patel Institute of Management & Computer Studies 13


Report on ICICI Web Trade Ltd.

wide variety of products and services, both directly and through a number of subsidiaries
and affiliates like ICICI Bank. In 1999, ICICI become the first Indian company and the first
bank or financial institution from non-Japan Asia to be listed on the NYSE.

After consideration of various corporate structuring alternatives in the context of the


emerging competitive scenario in the Indian banking industry, and the move towards
universal banking, the managements of ICICI and ICICI Bank formed the view that the
merger of ICICI with ICICI Bank would be the optimal strategic alternative for both
entities, and would create the optimal legal structure for the ICICI group's universal
banking strategy. The merger would enhance value for ICICI shareholders through the
merged entity's access to low-cost deposits, greater opportunities for earning fee-based
income and the ability to participate in the payments system and provide transaction-
banking services. The merger would enhance value for ICICI Bank shareholders through a
large capital base and scale of operations, seamless access to ICICI's strong corporate
relationships built up over five decades, entry into new business segments, higher market
share in various business segments, particularly fee-based services, and access to the vast
talent pool of ICICI and its subsidiaries. In October 2001, the Boards of Directors of ICICI
and ICICI Bank approved the merger of ICICI and two of its wholly-owned retail finance
subsidiaries, ICICI Personal Financial Services Limited and ICICI Capital Services
Limited, with ICICI Bank. The merger was approved by shareholders of ICICI and ICICI
Bank in January 2002, by the High Court of Gujarat at Ahmedabad in March 2002, and by
the High Court of Judicature at Mumbai and the Reserve Bank of India in April 2002.
Consequent to the merger, the ICICI group's financing and banking operations, both
wholesale and retail, have been integrated in a single entity.

4. WHY ONLINE SHARE TRADING?

4.1 Safety: -

S.K. Patel Institute of Management & Computer Studies 14


Report on ICICI Web Trade Ltd.

The safety of transactions on the Internet depends on the encryption system used. The
better this transaction system, the more difficult it is for any person to hack the site.

Internationally, the best system available today is the 128-bit encryption, a system,
which even the Pentagon uses. ICICIdirect.com is one of the few online share-trading sites
in the country equipped with this 128-bit encryption.

Secondly, you too can ensure the safety of the transactions online. You normally get a
secured user id and password, the secrecy of which is to be maintained entirely by you.

Thirdly, if the transaction system requires no manual intervention, you further improve the
safety in the transactions. Among Indian sites, ICICIdirect.com is one of the very few fully
integrated online trading sites. This enables the elimination of the possibility of any manual
intervention, which means orders are directly sent to the exchange ensuring that you get the
best and right price.

4.2 Security of money, Demat shares and transaction documents:-

In systems where the broking, banking and Demat accounts are completely
integrated, your money remains in your own bank account, and does not get transferred to
the broker’s pool account

4.3 Trading through the Internet is not a difficult and cumbersome process:-

The experience of trading through Internet depends a great deal on the type of
product offered by the site. Say, for example, one of the issues bothering you may be tired
of the paperwork involved after every trade in writing cheques or TIFDs.

You would then seek a system that eliminates these processes.

In online trading sites, the greater the back-end integration of the system, the greater the
amount of work the sites do for you, therefore greater the convenience available to you.

S.K. Patel Institute of Management & Computer Studies 15


Report on ICICI Web Trade Ltd.

For example, incase of ICICIdirect.com, your broking account, bank account and demat
account are linked electronically. So when you punch in a buy or sell order, the system
checks the funds/ shares availability and automatically credits/debits the accounts once the
order is executed by the exchange.

4.4 Demonstration:-

Contrary to common perceptions, trading through Internet does not require either any
expertise in working on the computer, or any special financial skills.

You could try the demo (demonstration) of the online trading sites like ICICIdirect.com to
find out why others like you, with little or no knowledge about the Internet or finance, have
switched on to online trading. Or you could attend the demonstrations sessions held by
such websites in your city.

4.5 Reasonable Cost:-

The convenience provided by online trading is even then worth the costs involved.

However, it is important to compare various online trading sites on brokerage rates,


inclusive of all sub-charges.

4.6 Reasons for Shifting from Broker to Online Trading:-

Many of those customers who have chosen to trade shares online today, had at one
point of time been trading through offline brokers, just like you are today. They took a
chance to go online and trade shares. After realizing the advantages of trading shares
online, they have shifted to online trading now. In fact, there are more than lake customers

S.K. Patel Institute of Management & Computer Studies 16


Report on ICICI Web Trade Ltd.

who have already opened an account with ICICIdirect.com. Just try trading shares after
opening an account with any online trading site. However, before choosing an online
trading site, please compare all such websites and then make a decision

4.7 Instantaneous Updates:-

The tickers available at online trading sites provide instantaneous updates. Also,
some websites can offer to transact in those shares instantaneously and with convenience.

4.8 Trades at Current Prices:-

The solution to your problem could be provided in different ways by different online
share trading sites. At ICICIdirect.com, for any trade order, the customer is asked to click
"Proceed" after he has the opportunity to completely check the order verification form.

Moreover, you have the option of modifying or canceling the order till the moment the
order is executed at the exchange.

Finally, online trade confirmations reach reaches our customers within 4 minutes,
while contract notes are dispatched at the end of the day and reach within 24-36 hours.

With ICICIdirect.com, you decide what you want to buy and buy the share at the
price you want to and therefore you are in total control of your trades.

4.9 Other Services:-

Internet has brought to the retail investors what was till sometime ago the sole
prerogative of large brokerage houses and high net worth individuals. For example at
ICICIdirect.com one can access multitude of resources to arrive at his stock picks. Reliable
research with an enviable track record is available free of cost.
