is achieved in it journey. Different product and services that are offered at MOSL are also
described in the report. Brief description about MOSL’s different department is stated in the
report. SWOT analysis is done for the company on basis of secondary data that is extracted from
the MOSL website. It also includes the study and comparison of other investment products
available in the market like Insurance plans, Mutual Funds, Savings account, Provident funds,
Postal savings, Fixed Deposits and Stocks available in the market. It also includes the various
options that are available for the investors in financial market.
A survey was conducted to gather primary data to judge the factors that influence investors
before they invest in any of the investment tools and thus the first part of the report scrutinizes
the investor’s perception and analyzes the relation between the features of the products and the
investors’ requirements. With this back ground an attempt has been made in this paper to
categorize investors based on various demographic factors such as age, sex, income level and
occupation. It also contains demographic factors and psychographic factors of an investor.
Which clearly gives idea how age, gender, income and occupation plays an important role in
taking any type of investment decision.
INDUSTRY OVERVIEW

Indian stock market marks to be one of the oldest stock market in Asia. It dates back to the close
of 18th century when the East India Company used to transact loan securities. In the 1830s,
trading on corporate stocks and shares in Bank and Cotton presses took place in Bombay.
Though the trading was broad but the brokers were hardly half dozen during 1840 and 1850.
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. In 1860, the exchange flourished
with 60 brokers. In fact the 'Share Mania' in India began with the American Civil War broke and
the cotton supply from the US to Europe stopped. Further the brokers increased to 250. 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).
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 most decisive period in the history of the BSE took place after 1992. In the aftermath of a
major scandal with market manipulation involving a BSE member named Harshad Mehta, BSE
responded to calls for reform with intransigence. The foot-dragging by the BSE helped radicalize
the position of the government, which encouraged the creation of the National Stock Exchange
(NSE), which created an electronic marketplace. NSE started trading on 4 November 1994.
Within less than a year, NSE turnover exceeded the BSE. BSE rapidly automated, but it never
caught up with NSE spot market turnover.
The second strategic failure at BSE came in the following two years. NSE embarked on the
launch of equity derivatives trading. BSE responded by political effort, with a friendly SEBI
chairman (D. R. Mehta) aimed at blocking equity derivatives trading. The BSE and D. R. Mehta
succeeded in delaying the onset of equity derivatives trading by roughly five years. But this
trading, and the accompanying shift of the spot market to rolling settlement, did come along in
2000 and 2001 - helped by another major scandal at BSE involving the then President Mr. Anand
Rathi. NSE scored nearly 100% market share in the runaway success of equity derivatives
trading, thus consigning BSE into clearly second place. Today, NSE has roughly 66% of equity
spot turnover and roughly 100% of equity derivatives turnover.
Stock Exchange provides a trading platform, where buyers and sellers can meet to transact in
securities.
Capital Market: The capital market is divided into two segments which are as following:

a) Primary Market
b) Secondary Market
Primary Market: Most companies are usually started privately by their promoters. However the
promoters’ capital and the borrowed capital from banks or financial institutions might not be
sufficient for running the business over the long term. That is when corporate and the
government looks at the primary market to raise long term funds by issuing securities such as
debt or equity. These securities may be issued at face value, at premium or at discount. Let us
understand the meaning of these terms:
 Face Value: Face value is the original cost of the security as shown in the
certificate/instrument. Most equity shares have a face value of Rs. 1, Rs. 5, Rs. 10 or Rs.
100 and do not have much bearing on the actual market price of the stock. When issuing
securities, they may be offered at a discount or at a premium.
 Premium: When the security is offered at a price higher than the face value it is called a
premium
 Discount: When the security is offered at a price lower than the face value it is called a
discount.
Secondary Market: The secondary market provides liquidity to the investors in the primary
market. Today we would not invest in any instrument if there was no medium to liquidate our
position. The secondary markets provide an efficient platform for trading of those securities
initially offered in the primary market. Also those investors who have applied for shares in an
IPO may or may not get allotment. If they don‘t then they can always buy the shares (sometimes
at a discount or at a premium) in the secondary market. Trading in the secondary market is done
through stock exchange. The Stock exchange is a place where the buyers and sellers meet to
trade in shares in an organized manner.
The stock exchange performs the following functions:

 Provide trading platform to investors and provide liquidity
 Facilitate Listing of securities
 Registers members - Stock Brokers, sub brokers
 Make and enforce by-laws
 Manage risk in securities transactions
 Provides Indices
There are two leading stock exchanges in India which help us trade are:
 National Stock Exchange: National Stock Exchange incorporated in the year 1992
provides trading in the equity as well as debt market. Maximum volumes take place on
NSE and hence enjoy leadership position in the country today
 Bombay Stock Exchange: BSE on the other hand was set up in the year 1875 and is the
oldest stock exchange in Asia. It has evolved in to its present status as the premier stock
exchange. At BSE you will find some scripts listed that are not available on NSE. Also
BSE has the largest number of scripts which are listed.

RESEARCH TOPIC
Investor behavior analysis on the basis of demographics and psychographics factors of the
investor considering the parameters like age, gender and income groups and also some
psychological parameters that will attract the investor towards that particular investment. This
analysis describes why an investor will opt a particular investment and the motive behind the
investment and other objectives of investment.
INTRODUCTION
There are several parameters that an investor will think before investing like return, flexibility
and etc but the markets will face a question mark in knowing the pulse of an investor. So a study
must be made on the demographics and psychographics of the investor such that the market can
know the pulse of an investor and can act upon it. These are the results of such a survey that was
made on the investor. Investor behavior analysis deals with analyzing the behavior of an investor

based on his demographic and psychographic factors like age, gender and income groups. This
depicts what would be a preferred portfolio of an investor at an age. This will be helpful to the
stock brokers and portfolio managers so that they can offer better portfolios to their investors.
This analysis will show the mentality of an investor and his preferences clearly and concisely.
DEMOGRAPHIC AND PSYCHOGRAPHIC FACTORS

Demographic: Statistical socio-economic characteristics or variables of a population, such as
age, sex, education level, income level, marital status, occupation, religion, birth rate, death rate,
average size of a family, average age at marriage. A census is a collection of the demographic
factors associated with every member of a population.
Psychographic: This includes Activity, Interest, and Opinion (AIO) Attitudes Values of an
investor when he looks at a particular investing option.
INVESTMENT NEEDS OF AN INVESTOR
By and large, most investors have eight common needs from their Investments are as following:
1. Security of original capital: The chance of losing some capital has been a primary need.
This is perhaps the strongest need among investors in India, who have suffered regularly
due to failures of the financial system.
2. Wealth accumulation: This is largely a factor of investment performance, including

both short-term performance of an investment and long-term performance of a portfolio.
Wealth accumulation is the ultimate measure of the success of an investment decision.
3. Comfort factor: This refers to the peace of mind associated with an investment.
Avoiding discomfort is probably a greater need than receiving comfort. Reputation plays
an important part in delivering the comfort factor.

4. Tax efficiency: Legitimate reduction in the amount of tax payable is an important part of
the Indian psyche. Every rupee saved in taxes goes towards wealth accumulation.
5. Life Cover: Many investors look for investments that offer good return with adequate
life cover to manage the situations in case of any eventualities.
6. Income: This refers to money distributed at intervals by an investment, which are usually
used by the investor for meeting regular expenses. Income needs tend to be fairly
constant because they are related to lifestyle and are well understood by investors.
7. Simplicity: Investment instruments are complex, but investors need to understand what is
being done with their money. A planner should also deliver simplicity to investors.
8. Ease of withdrawal: This refers to the ability to invest long term but withdraw funds
when desired. This is strongly linked to a sense of ownership. It is normally triggered by
a need to spend capital, change investments or cater to changes in other needs. Access to
a long-term investment at short notice can only be had at a substantial cost.
9. Communication: This refers to informing and educating investors about the purpose and
progress of their investments. The need to communicate increases when investments are
threatened.
 Security of original capital is more important when performance falls.
 Performance is more important when investments are performing well.
 Failures engender a desire for an increase in the comfort factor.
Perfect investment would have been achieved if all the above-mentioned needs had been met to
satisfaction. But there is always a trade-off involved in making investments. As long as the
investment strategy matches the needs of investor according to the priority assigned to them, he
should be happy.
The Ideal Investment strategy should be a customized one for each investor depending on his
risk-return profile, his satisfaction level, his income, and his expectations. Accurate planning

gives accurate results. And for that there must be an efficient and trustworthy roadmap to achieve
the ultimate goal of wealth maximization.
CHOOSING THE RIGHT INVESTMENT OPTIONS
After understanding the concept of investment, the investors would like to know how to go about
the task of investment, how much to invest at any moment and when to buy or sell the securities,
This depends on investment process as investment policy, investment analysis, valuation of
securities, portfolio construction and portfolio evaluation and revision. Every investor tries to
derive maximum economic advantage from his investment activity. For evaluating an investment
avenues are based upon the rate of return, risk and uncertainty, capital appreciation,

marketability, tax advantage and convenience of investment. The following Table should give
the clear picture relating to the investors’ investment decisions in various financial market
instruments. The choice of the best investment options will depend on personal circumstances as
well as general market conditions. For example, a good investment for a long-term retirement
plan may not be a good investment for higher education expenses. In most cases, the right
nvestment is a balance of three things: Liquidity, Safety and Return.
INVESTMENT OPTIONS IN INDIA

Fixed Deposits – They cover the fixed deposits of varied tenors offered by the commercial
banks and other non-banking financial institutions. These are generally a low risk prepositions as
the commercial banks are believed to return the amount due without default. By and large these
FDs are the preferred choice of risk-averse Indian investors who rate safety of capital & ease of
investment above all parameters. Largely, these investments earn a marginal rate of return of 6-
8% per annum.
Government Bonds – The Central and State Governments raise money from the market through
a variety of Small Saving Schemes like national saving certificates, Kisan Vikas Patra, Post
Office Deposits, Provident Funds,etc. These schemes are risk free as the government does not
default in payments. But the interest rates offered by them are in the range of 7% - 9%.
Money-back insurance - Insurance in India is mostly sold and bought as investment products.
They are preferred because of their add-on benefits like financial life-cover, tax-savings and
satisfactory returns. Even if one does not manage to save money and invest regularly in financial

instruments, with insurance, the policyholder has no choice. If he does not pay his premiums on
time, his insurance cover will lapse. Money-back Insurance schemes are used as investment
avenues as they offer partial cash-back at certain intervals. This money can be utilized for
children’s education, marriage, etc.
Endowment Insurance – These policies are term policies. Investors have to pay the premiums
for a particular term, and at maturity the accrued bonus and other benefits are returned to the
policyholder if he survives at maturity.
Bullion Market – Precious metals like gold and silver had been a safe heaven for Indian
investors since ages. Besides jewellery these metals are used for investment purposes also. Since
last 1 year, both Gold and Silver have highly appreciated in value both in the domestic as well as
the international markets. In addition to its attributes as a store of value, the case for investing in
gold revolves around the role it can play as a portfolio diversifier.
Stock Market – Indian stock markets particularly the BSE and the NSE, had been a preferred
destination not only for the Indian investors but also for the Foreign investors.. Although Indian
Markets had been through tough times due to various scams, but history shows that they
recovered very fast. Many types of scrip had been value creators for the investors. People have
earned fortunes from the stock markets, but there are people who have lost everything due to
incorrect timings or selection of fundamentally weak companies.
Real Estate- Returns are almost guaranteed because property values are always on the rise due
to a growing world population. Residential real estate is more than just an investment. There are
more ways than ever before to profit from real estate investment.
Mutual Funds - There is a collection of investors in Mutual funds that have professional fund
managers that invest in the stock market collectively on behalf of investors. Mutual funds offer a
better route to investing in equities for lay investors. A mutual fund acts like a professional fund
manager, investing the money and passing the returns to its investors. All it deducts is a
management fee and its expenses, which are declared in its offer document.

it is their motive because at this age his ideas will be running around luxurious life. So he
will be ready to take higher amount of risk to get good returns.
 Where 66.66% of men in 30-50years of age are preferring security because they will have
a family at this age and their ideology will look at safeguarding the future of their
children and to make them look happy, generally being a parent he will be planning for

the education of his child and in saving some amount for matching the needs of his
children, so he will step into the shoes of secured future and will put a comma to his
aggressive behavior and will become conservative and also starts investing in those
options which are much safer when compared to his previous investments.
 Majority of the men who cross the age group of 50 prefer high yield return (50%) and
40% of them prefer security.
 Women are good at planning and are conservative in nature and they are focusing for
secured future. This can be seen in women of 20-50 age groups. Because generally a
woman gets married at the age of 23 so her thinking will always be about her family and
their future. Even if she is not married she has a firm idea of securing her future because
she being a good planner always thinks about the future and will always prefer investing
in such options which are less risky.
 Whereas women who have crossed 50years of age are focusing at high yield returns
because they are not having any burdens on them and their prime ideology is to give
something to her next generation so she is now ready to take risks for the sake of getting
higher returns. Here we can see a sea change in her mentality where she is becoming
aggressive from a conservative personality
 Majority of the women are found to be conservative where her prime ideology is to have
secured return and women are found to be aggressive once they cross the age of 50 where
they are free from several economical burdens and family pressures as their children start
 working somewhere and are done with their education and the family has good source of
income, so she is turning into an aggressive investor.

Comments:
Male:
 Majority of the men in 20-30 age group are giving preference to real estate and shares as
there motive is high yield returns. Generally there is much risk involved in real estate as
the prices of the land keeps fluctuating. Even then men are interested in investing on real
estate because of its return. It is known that shares is a risky trade and is compared to
gambling but it has its taboo because of the returns. So men are ready to take the risk by
investing in real estate and shares only by looking at the returns that they get.

 Men in 30-40 age groups prefer investing in insurance and gold. It is found that ULIPS is
not a risky investment because it covers some part of insurance and the other that are
units which he can trade. This option will generally preferred by this age group people to
secure the future of their children or because of some other ideology. The next option
gold is having some safety where there is less risk and the prices of gold are always
found to be rising.
 50 and above age groups are preferring real estate as we have seen that they are interested
in high yield returns. Generally people at this age group are investing in real estate with
an ideology of giving a home to their next generations and also because of some ancestral
beliefs in India which say that investing in land is always safe. They are interested in real
estate because they can have a fixed asset in hand and can serve their next generations to
cash upon it which can match their unexpected needs.
Female:
 Women at 20-30 age groups prefer mutual funds because compared to shares there is
lesser risk involved in mutual funds. Mutual funds offer a return ranging between 10-20%
per annum and are safe because they are handled by good companies and are maintained
by professionals. There is less risk involved in this area of investment as it has some
fixed calculations and is handled properly by the mutual fund companies so as to sustain
in the market and to attract more number of investors. Companies like UTI and others are
found to be the masters in this area and are having happy customers.
 Where 30-40 age group women prefer fixed deposits, insurance and gold. Though the
return is less in fixed deposits, ULIPs they are interested in investing here because there
is less risk involved in these areas. Gold also has less risk when compared to other
investing options as it is a onetime investment and majority of them feel it as a fixed
asset.
 Like 30-40 age group women 40-50 age group women also prefer post office schemes
and insurance (ULIPS) as they are secured.

 Women above 50years age group prefer real estate and mutual funds as real estate fetches
higher returns and mutual funds are safer.

Comments:
Male:
 Men at 20-30 age groups prefer banking and power. It was observed that these industries
are performing well. Even new players are performing better and because of this scenario
there is much taboo for banking. There are several reforms which are taking place in
power sector and big players have entered this sectored because of which people are
planning to look at these sectors aiming for higher returns.

 30-40 age group people prefer banking and IT. Here we can understand a fact that many
of the people are having their relatives or friends working in the IT sector because of
which there is soft corner towards this sector. IT has lost its taboo because of the recent
financial crisis even then some investors are interested in investing in this sector and it
was found that many of them are employees of IT industry and some are related to them.
Players like Infosys TCS are performing well and are always in news and are having
recognition across the globe. This is giving some hope to the investors. Some instances
like Satyam would have affected this situation and also the recent financial crisis. But,
because of government taking necessary actions people gained some confidence on this
sector. Also there is one more reason for people’s interest towards this sector i.e., the
workforce of the IT. So generally they try to safeguard their jobs by contributing
something to the industry back (If share value increases the company will get more
market share and more agreements.)
 Men at 40-50 age group are interested in investing in banking, pharmaceutical,
petrochemicals and infra. Here these people are interested in these sectors because of the
recent advancements in these sectors. Pharma and petrochemicals are always found to be
successful. There are several new players entering into these markets (If population is
increasing that is directly related to the increase in the number of patients.) Infrastructure
is the other industry which is growing today. The recent steps that are taken by the
government of India in favor of private players in these sectors is also contributing much
to this.
 50 and above men prefer banking and power.
Female:
 In addition to banking women at 20-40 age groups are preferring IT
 Where 40-50 age groups are preferring banking
 50 and above prefer same banking and power.
 So it is found that banking sector is having charisma in the equity market at present and is
a growing industry. As our country’s employability is increasing the savings are also
increasing and at the same time several people are taking loans from banks so the market
of the banks is growing and even the charisma of it.

 20-30 age group people are preferring flexibility and returns. This is because of the recent
financial slump down where their money is locked in some investments so they have

changed their mindset towards flexibility and prefers returns as they are aggressive in
nature.

maximum number of people of this age group has family and are willing to save for their

high yield returns and prefer flexibility to meet some unexpected financial problems.
 50 and above age groups are focused towards returns
Female
 Female in the age groups of 20-40 and 50 and above prefer return as they are aggressive
in nature. Where 40-50 age group women prefer less expenses.
RECOMMENDATION AND SUGGESTIONS
As most of investors are not clear with the investing decisions they tend to take wrong investing
decisions and finally they make huge loss. Hence MOSL should come up with some strategy

where they can give free advice or seminar to their new customer so that they get trapped into
huge loss. MOSL can design such portfolio which can suit an investor’s opinion.
CONCLUSION
As we know that in today’s scenario only 2 % of India’s total population are aware of equity
market and are investing in stock market and remaining 98% are not aware of equity market and
even if they are aware of it still they don’t invest in equity market due some past news don’t even
invest in stock market. It’s due to their wrong perception towards equity market mechanism or
they are not well advised by the stock broker. Hence we can conclude that a stock broker should
know or have exact about an investor’s need, motive behind their investment etc before
approaching him/her.
LIMITATIONS OF THE STUDY
 Study is done on the basis of investor’s personal opinion.
 It is done as per the view of investors dwelling in Navi Mumbai.

 Sample size is very small.
IMPLICATION OF THE PROJECT FOR THE COMPANY
If MOSL understands the logic behind the survey on investor behavior, it can easily frame up its
strategies for a nearby future and can even encourage the investor to invest in such investment
schemes in which he/she wants. It can cut the cost which is unnecessarily spent on the non-
potential customer. MOSL should offer a portfolio that matches with the ideology of a customer
then he easily agrees to invest in that portfolio without any hesitation. Any operation that is done
by the company loses its credibility if it is not customer friendly or if it is rejected by the
customer. So, this study helps the companies to build such products to its investors which are in
reach of his/her mindset and thinking.
SCOPE FOR FUTURE STUDY
As we know that 98% of India’s population don’t invest in stock market due to their personal
view on stock market or their behavioral pattern which don’t allow them to invest in stock
market. As this report is done taking demographic factors into consideration. Same ways one can
take economic factors into consideration for future study.
