Abstract

The risk and return relationship is a fundamental concept in not only financial analysis, but in every aspect of life. If decisions are to lead to benefit maximization, it is necessary that individuals/institutions consider the combined influence on expected (future) return or benefit as well as on risk/cost. The requirement that expected return/benefit is commensurate with risk/ cost is known as the “risk return trade-off in finance. A company which has a higher intrinsic worth, is not necessarily the best stock to buy. It may have no growth prospects or it may be overpriced. Similarly, a company that  performs well during any one year may not be the best to buy. On the contrary,a company which has been badly for sometime might have turn the corner and it may be the best to buy, as its shares may be under priced and it has good prospects of growth, hence an analysis of risk or return guides an investor in proper profitable investment.Return expressses the amount which an investor actually earned on an investment during a certain period . Return includes the interest,dividend and capital gains; while risk represents the uncertainity associated with a particular task. In financial terms, risk is the chance or probability that a certain investment may or may not deliver the actual expected return.

Key words: Risk, Return, NSE, Stock Market, Investor, Index, Beta

INTRODUCTION:

Stock market is the area where one will not be able to predict the future in a right way. A stock market may vary to either side due to a simple corporate decision. The investors are really worried with these variations in the market. Once he invests in stock market, a number of questions will arise in his mind. Will the stock price go up? Is it a good time to buy or sell the stock? What would be the risk and return of the stock? The line of questions goes on like this.

Normally an investor in stock market will be aware of the risk that he has to bear and the return for that. But up to what extent? To answer this question he has to get into the depth of trading of stocks. By analyzing and knowing the importance of these trading activities he will be more aware and will be able to control the risk and cope up with the volatility happening in the market. Security analysis is built around the idea that investors are concerned with two principal properties inherent in securities: the return that can be expected from building a security, and risk that the return achieved will be less than the return that was expected. The primary purpose of this study is to focus upon return and risk and how they are measured.

Investors want to maximize expected returns subjected to their tolerance for risk. Return is the motivating force and the principle reward in the investment process and it is the key method available to investors in comparing alternative investment. Measuring historical return allows investors to assess how well investment has been done and it plays a part in the estimation of future unknown returns.

Investment: Investment is the employment of funds on assets with the aim of earning income or capital appreciation. Investment has two attributes namely time and risk. Present consumption is sacrificed to get a return in the future. The risk is undertaken with a view to reap some return from the investment. Financial investment is the allocation of money to assets that are expected to yield some gain over a period of time. It is an exchange of financial claims such as stocks and bonds for money. They are expected to yield returns and experience capital growth over the years.The main investment objectives are increasing the rate of return and reducing the risk.

Return : Investors always expect a good rate of return from their investments. Rate of return could be defined as the total income the investor receives during the holding period stated as a perceentage of the purchasing price at the beginning of the holding period.

Risk: Risk of holding securities is related with the probability of actual return becoming less than the expected return. The word risk is synonymous with the phrase variability of return. Investment’s risk is just as important as measuring its expected rate of return because minimising risk and maximising the rate of return are interrelated objectives in the investment management. An investment whose rate of return varies widely from period to period is risky than whose return that does not change much. Every investor likes to reduce the risk of his investment by proper combination of different securities.  

NEED OF THE STUDY:

Investment decisions are influenced by various motives. Some people invest in a business to acquire control and enjoy the prestige associated with it. Some people invest in expensive yachts and famous villas to display their wealth. Most investors however are largely guided by the pecuniary motive of earning a return on their investment.

Return is the primary motivating force that drives investment. It represents the reward for undertaking investment. Since the game of investing is about returns (after allowing for risk), measurement of realized (historical) returns is necessary to access how well the investment manager has done. In addition, historical returns are often used as an important input in estimating future (prospective) returns. 

SCOPE OF THE STUDY:

The scope of the study is confined to only NSE Nifty 50 companies.

IMPORTANCE OF THE STUDY:

Stock market is unpredictable and its movement is influenced by number of factors. An investor can reduce unsystematic risk by investing in a number of securities rather than in a single security. This study helps to identify the stocks yielding maximum returns with minimum risk. It also helps in identifying the systematic risks involved in each stock. Industry wise analysis also helps to understand which industry is yielding higher returns.

OBJECTIVES OF THE STUDY:

  • To analyze the risk and return of the 50 companies from Nifty Index.
  • To measure the actual returns of these companies for 6 years (2008-2013).
  • To study volatality of companies in comparison with the market
  • To guide the investors of various investment opportunities.
  • To get good return on investement made in differen avenues by investors.

SOURCES OF DATA:

PRIMARY DATA:

For a study of this nature primary data is collected through interaction with manager and staff members.

SECONDARY DATA:

The secondary data which is collected from various secondary sources like internet, journals & other publications. The stock price & market index were collected from the National Stock Exchange official website (www.nseindia.com). Apart from that, data have been taken from different company websites.

TOOLS FOR ANALYSIS:

  • Beta is used to indicate percentage change in company’s stock return, when there is one percent change in NSE index return.
  • Beta is used to calculate the total risk.
  • MS Excel is used in order to calculate Return and Beta.

The other kinds of formulae used are:

Rate of return= [(closing price-opening price)/opening price]*100

Computation of Beta:

Stock Return (Ri) = [(closing price-opening price)/opening price]*100

Stock Return (Rm) = [(closing price-opening price)/opening price]*100

Beta (β) = [ ∑(Ri-`Ri)(Rm-`Rm) ] / [ ∑(Rm-`Rm)^2 ]

Where, `RI= (∑ RI)/5 &`Rm= (∑ Rm)/5

Computation of Alpha:

Alpha (α) = `RI – β`Rm

Beta (β) represents the Systematic Risk.

Alpha (α) represents the Unsystematic Risk.

METHODOLOGY:

  • Analysis of return and beta’s of 50 companies using SPSS and statistical tools in excel.

DATA ANALYSIS AND INTERPRETATION:

Risk is an important consideration in holding any portfolio. The risk in holding securities is generally associated with the possibility that realised returns will be less than the returns expected. Risks can be classified as Systematic risks and Unsystematic risks. The degree, to which different portfolios are affected by these systematic risks as compared to the effect on the market as a whole, is different and is measured by Beta. To put it differently, the systematic risks of various securities differ due to their relationships with the market. The Beta factor describes the movement in a stock's or a portfolio's returns in relation to that of the market return. For all practical purposes, the market returns are measured by the returns on the index (Nifty), since the index is a good reflector of the market.

In order to find out the movement in the stock return in relation to the Nifty Index, Beta’s of 50 companies are calculated and analysed.

CONCLUSION

Risk & Return are inseparable. To ignore risk & only expect returns is an out-dated approach to investments. The investment process must be considered in terms of both aspects – risk & return. For earning returns investors have to almost invariably bear some risk. While investors like returns, they abhor risk. Investment decisions therefore involve a trade-off between risk & return. As a whole the stock market is sometimes highly volatile. It depends upon the investors how he can make use of this in order to get the money which he has put in the market. An investor should be in a position to analyse the various investment option available to him and thus minimize the risk and maximize the returns.

Beta is useful for comparing the relative systematic risk of different stocks & in practice; it is used by investors to judge a stock’s riskiness. The investor should keep the risk associated with the return proportional as risk is directly correlated with return. It is generally believed that higher the risk, the greater the reward but seeking excessive risk does not ensure excessive return. At a given level of return, each security has a different degree of risk. Based on the calculations the investor can come to a conclusion that investors should analyse the market on a continuous basis which will help them to pick the right companies to invest their funds. The return, Beta value will help the investors in arriving at the right decision. The investors should be in a position to interpret the data in the right manner to arrive at important conclusions and investment decisions.Long term investment gives more returns with minimum risk compared to the short term investment. Long term investment gives not only good returns but also gives a tax benefit because investors have tax exemptions in long term capital gains.
