INTRODUCTION

A Stock Exchange is the single most important institution in the secondary market for providing a platform to the investors for buying and selling of securities through its member. It is a place where already issued securities of companies are bought and sold by investors. Stock Exchanges are an organized marketplace, either corporation or mutual organization, where members of the organization gather to trade company stocks or other securities. The members may act either as agents for their customers, or as principals for their own accounts. It also facilitates for the issue and redemption of securities and other financial instruments including the payment of income and dividends. Traditionally a stock exchange is an association of its members or stock brokers, formed for the purpose of facilitating the buying and selling of securities by the public and institutions at large and regulating its day to day operations. Of late however, stock exchanges in India are operating now with due recognition from Security and Exchange Board of India (SEBI)/ the Government of India under the securities contracts (Regulation) Act, 1956. There are 24 recognized stock exchanges in India, out of which one has not commenced its operations. Out of the 23 remaining stock exchanges, the trading volumes are recorded. Most of the regional stock exchanges have formed subsidiary companies and obtained membership of Bombay Stock Exchanges (BSE), or

Historical Background of Stock Exchanges


The first stock exchange was established in London in the year 1773. just after establishment of London stock exchange various countries like France, Germany and USA also established their own stock exchange markets. In India, the first exchange established in Bombay in the year 1875. later, in year 1908, Calcutta stock exchange was established which was recognized in the company in 1923. mean which in 1920 the madras stock exchange limited in 1973. So far the government of India has recognized 22 stock exchange, which was located at major business centers in different parts of country. Till the mid fifties the stock exchange was governed by their own bye laws and regulations with very little interface by the government. In the year 1925, the government of Bombay promulgated an act securities contracts and control act, 1625 for regulation and the stock exchange. During the world was second trading outside the stock exchange flourished with adverse effect on investors confidence due to base less issues and higher rate of liquidation of companies. In 1956, the center government passed contracts (regulation) act 1956, which came into force through out the country on 20th Feb. 1957.

Earliest records of securities trading in India are available from the end of the eighteenth century. Before 1850, there was business conducted in Mumbai in shares of the East India Company, which were considered as securities for buying, selling\ & exchange. The shares of the Commercial Banks, mercantile bank & the Bank of Bombay were some of the prominent shares traded. In 1850, the Companies Act was passed & that heralded the commencement of the joint stock companies in India. It was the American civil war that helped Indian to establish broking business. The leading broker, Shri Premchand Roy Chand designed & developed the procedure to be followed while dealing in shares. In 1874, the Dalal Street became the permanent place for meeting the brokers to conduct their business. The brokers organized an association on 9 th July 1875 known as Native share 7 stock Brokers Association to protect the stock & interest of the native brokers. That was the foundation of the Stock Exchange, Mumbai. The Exchange was established with 318 members. The Stock Exchange, Mumbai did not have to look back as it started riding high in the ladder of growth. In January 1899, Mr. James M.Maclen, M.P inaugurated the Brokers hall. After the 1st World War, the stock exchange was housed properly at an old building near the Town Hall. In 1928 the present premises were acquired surrounded by Dalal Street, Bombay Samacher Marg and Hamman Street. At new building the present location was constructed and was occupied on 1st December 1930.

In 1956, the Parliament of India passed the Security Contract (Regulation) Act. To regulate the security market, SEBI was initially established on October 12, 1988, as an interim board under control of the Ministry of Finance, Govt. of India. In 1992 the SEBI Act came into existence. In 1992 Over the Counter Exchange of India (OTCEI) came into existence where securities of small companies are listed. In 1994, National Stock Exchange (NSE) came into existence, which brought an end to the open out cry system of trading securities which was in vogue for 150 years, and introduced Screen Board Trading (SBT) system.

The Exchange closely monitors outstanding position of top buying memberbrokers and top selling member-brokers on a daily basis. For this purpose, it has developed various market monitoring reports based on certain pre-set parameters. These reports are scrutinized by officials of the Surveillance Dept. to ascertain whether a member-broker has built up excessive purchase or sale position compared to his normal level of business. Further, it is examined whether purchases or sales are concentrated in one or more scrips, whether the margin cover is adequate, whether transactions have been entered into on behalf of institutional clients and even the quality of scrips, i.e., liquid or illiquid is looked into in order to assess the quality of exposure.

For this, the concerned Members are required to give a client wise break up file which is uploaded by the Members from their offices to the Clearing House. Based on the break up given by the Members, the Clearing House instructs the depositories, viz., CDSL & NSDL to credit the securities to the Beneficiary Owners (BO) Accounts of the clients.

LIMITATIONS OF STUDY
It is said, What is worth doing is worth doing best. In other words a person should aim at perfection. However in real life this is not always possible. Human have to work within the limitation set by the nature and society. That is to say even though every possible effort has been made to make this project report authentic and comprehensive however many constraints were also at play. The major limitations of the study are: Due to paucity of time and resources a countrywide survey was not possible. Since a smaller sample was chosen so it may not be a true representative of the population under study. The possibility of the respondents responses being biased cannot be ruled out. Most of the study was restricted to Internet and published data because of the non availability of primary data. The information given by the respondents might be biased because some of them might not be interested to given correct information. Some of the respondents could not answer the questions due to lack of knowledge. Some of the respondents of the survey were unwilling to share information.
