1.2.1. STOCK MARKET A stock market is a market for the trading of shares, debentures, derivatives and other instruments of different companies listed on different stock exchanges. Although common, the term ‘the stock market is a somewhat abstract concept for the mechanism that enables the trading of company stocks. It is also used to describe the totality of all stocks, especially within a country, for example in the phrase ‘the stock market was up today’, or in the term ‘stock market bubble’ It is distinct from a stock exchange, which is in an entity (a corporation or a mutual organization) in the business of bringing buyers and sellers of stocks together.
FUNCTIONS OF STOCK MARKET The stock market occupies a pivotal position in the financial system. It performs several economic functions and renders valuable services to the economy as a whole. They may be summarized as below: 1. Liquidity and marketability 2. Safety of funds 3. Supply of long term funds 4. Flow of capital to profitable ventures 5. Motivation for improved performance 6. Promotion of investments 7. Marketing of new issues
HISTORY OF STOCK EXCHANGES IN INDIA The first organized stock exchange in India was started in 1875 at Bombay and it is stated to be the oldest in Asia. In 1894 the Ahmedabad Stock Exchange was started to facilitate dealings in the shares of textile mills there. The Calcutta stock exchange was started in 1908 to provide a market for shares of plantations and jute mills. Then the madras stock exchange was started in 1920.

The Bombay Stock Exchange is the oldest exchange in Asia. It traces its history to 1855, when four Gujarati and one Parsi stockbroker would gather under banyan trees in front of Mumbai's Town Hall. The location of these meetings changed many times as the number of brokers constantly increased. The group eventually moved to Dalal Street in 1874 and in 1875 became an official organization known as "The Native Share & Stock Brokers Association". On 31 August 1957, the BSE became the first stock exchange to be recognized by the Indian Government under the Securities Contracts Regulation Act. In 1980, the exchange moved to the Phiroze Jeejeebhoy Towers at Dalal Street, Fort area. In 1986, it developed the BSE SENSEX index, giving the BSE a means to measure overall performance of the exchange. In 2000, the BSE used this index to open its derivatives market, trading SENSEX futures contracts. The development of SENSEX options along with equity derivatives followed in 2001 and 2002, expanding the BSE's trading platform. Historically an open outcry floor trading exchange, the Bombay Stock Exchange switched to an electronic trading system developed by CMC Ltd in 1995. It took the exchange only fifty days to make this transition. This automated, screen-based trading platform called BSE On-line trading (BOLT) had a capacity of 8 million orders per day. The BSE has also introduced a centralized exchange-based internet trading system, BSEWEBx.co.in to enable investors anywhere in the world to trade on the BSE platform. The BSE is also a Partner Exchange of the United Nations Sustainable Stock Exchange initiative, joining in September 2012. NATIONAL STOCK EXCHANGE Type

1.2.2. FMCG INDUSTRY Fast Moving Consumer Goods (FMCG) Industry in India is one of the fastest developing sectors in the Indian economy. At present the FMCG Industry is worth US$ 13.1 billion and it is the 4th largest in the Indian Economy. These products have very fast turnaround rate, i.e. the time from production to the revenue from the sell of the product is very less. In the present economic scenario, time is regarded as money, so the FMCG companies have to be very fast in manufacturing and supplying these goods. The Fast Moving Consumer Goods (FMCG) Industry in India include segments like cosmetics, toiletries, glassware, batteries, bulbs, pharmaceuticals, packaged food products, white goods, house care products, plastic goods, consumer non-durables, etc. The FMCG market is highly concentrated in the urban areas as the rise in the income of the middle-income group is one of the major factors for the growth of the Indian FMCG market.
The penetration in the rural areas in India is not high as yet and the opportunity of growth in these areas is huge by means of enhanced penetration in to the rural market and conducting awareness programs in these areas. The scopes for the growth of the FMCG industry are high as the per capita consumption of the FMCG products in India is low in comparison to the other developed countries. The manufacturing of the FMCG School of Management Studies Vatakara, University of Calicut

goods is concentrated in the western and southern belt of the country. There are other pockets of FMCG manufacturing hubs.
SCOPE OF FMCG INDUSTRY IN INDIA The FMCG (Fast Moving Consumer Goods) companies have faced tough competition among themselves over the years which is continuously increasing. This is due to the increase in per capita income among individuals and also various developments in rural economy. The FMCG sector has changed its strategies and has opted for a more wellplanned marketing of the products to penetrate both the rural and urban markets. To execute these tasks, the FMCG companies are hiring more and more people which has led to an increase in the job prospects in this sector. Thus, FMCG sector is creating massive employment with good career prospects. Marketing, retail, sales, services and supply are the key areas which generates maximum career scopes in FMCG Industry in India. FMCG sector in the Indian rural market is one of the most booming sectors in Indian economy. The villages of India account for 12.2% of the world's population. The farm sector has been one of the significant sectors which boosted the rural economy resulting in the higher consumption of FMCG products. The consumers in both rural and urban sectors can afford high-priced branded products nowadays with the high disposable income. The FMCG sector in India has grown significantly in the year 2007 and this gave rise to huge prospects in the sector. The rural and urban sectors fared equally well in the processed food items in the year 2007. The rural market separately performed well in the personal care, fabric care, and hot beverages while the urban market did well in home care, personal care, bakery, dairy products, and the like.
COMPETITION IN THE FMCG SECTOR India's huge population has always been a significant factor for the growth of FMCG sector in the country. Between 1950 and 1980, the consumption of FMCG products were relatively low due to the low per capita income. The post-liberalization era in India has witnessed a massive growth in the selling of products in the domestic market. The Indian market also imported loads of products from overseas markets which made School of Management Studies Vatakara, University of Calicut

increased the competition between the organized and the unorganized sector.
The easing of the trade barriers encouraged the MNCs to invest in the Indian market to cater to the needs of the consumers. The living standards rose in the urban sector due to high disposable income along with the rise in the purchasing power of the rural families which increased the sales volume of various manufacturers of the FMCG products in India. The large-scale companies such as HLL, Godrej Consumer, Marico, Henkel, Reckitt Benckiser and Colgate have targeted the rural consumers and have also expanded their retail chain in the mid-sized towns and villages. On the contrary to this, Nestle has always targeted the market of urban India and focuses largely upon the value added products for the elite class or upper middle class population.
MNCs IN FMCG SECTOR MNCs in FMCG Sector in India are doing very good business. The major FMCG companies in India are mostly Multi-National Companies (MNC), such as Nike, Reebok, Puma, Pepsi Co, L'Oreal, etc. The experts believe that in the future the MNCs would dominate the FMCG sector India. The FMCG market consists of products such as personal care products, toiletries products, cosmetics products, house care products, white goods, etc. The market is expected to witness the emergence of large players. TOP 10 COMPANIES According to the study conducted by AC Nielsen, 62 of the top 100 brands are owned by MNCs, and the balance by Indian companies. Fifteen companies own these 62 brands, and 27 of these are owned by Hindustan Unilever. The top ten India FMCG brands are: 1. Hindustan Unilever Ltd. 2. ITC (Indian Tobacco Company) 3. Nestlé India 4. GCMMF (AMUL)

GROWTH OF FMCG SECTOR IN INDIA There is stiff Competition in the FMCG sector in India and the competition is expected to increase in the coming years. FMCG sector in India is most likely to witness more than 50% growth in the semi-urban and rural areas in India by the year 2010 according to the reports of the Associated Chambers of Commerce and Industry of India (Assocham) of July 2005. The sector is estimated to grow by 10% per year and reach a market size of ` 100,000 crores by 2010 from 48,000 crores in 2005. The people of both rural and urban regions in India are consuming high volume of fast moving consumer goods these days due to the higher disposable income. This has led to a surge in the setting up of a number of FMCG companies in India to meet the rising demand of the consumers. The rural market has grown significantly over the years. The FMCG companies which have grown significantly in India in the last few years are Nirma, HLL, Dabur, ITC, Godrej, Britannia, Coca-Cola, and Pepsi.
RECENT DEVELOPMENTS Finance Minister, Mr. P. Chidambaram declared several tax sops for the FMCG sector in India along with putting due emphasis on the infrastructure developments in the same. The usual growth drivers such as penetration, per capita consumption, population, and household income were quite strong in 2007 and also the consumption of the FMCG products has been increased outstandingly in 2007.

on food processing machineries were reduced from 7.5% to 5%, excise duties on food mixes were reduced from 16% to 8%, and taxes were reduced on edible oils.

to 2014-15.
1.6.4. TOOLS USED FOR ANALYSIS 1. RATIOS a) Operating Profit Margin (OPM) The operating profit margin indicates the profit of the company after depreciation, but before interest and taxes are deducted from the earnings. Operating profit margin = Operating profit / Revenue = EBIT / Revenue x 100 b) Net Profit Margin (NPM) Net profit margin measures the amount of profits available to shareholders after depreciation, interest and taxes are deducted from the earnings. Net profit margin = Net profit / Revenue x 100 c) Earnings per Share (EPS) This ratio indicates the profits available to equity share holders per share, this helps to determine the market price of equity shares. Earnings per Share = Profit after Tax / No. of equity shares. d) Dividend per Share (DPS) The amount of profits distributed to shareholders per share is known as DPS and may be calculated as follows: Dividend per Share = Amount declared as dividend / No. of equity shares. e) Dividend Payout Ratio (DP Ratio) The DP ratio is the ratio between the DPS and EPS of the firm, i.e., it refers to the proportion of the EPS which has been distributed by the company as dividends. Dividend payout ratio may be calculated as follows: Dividend Payout Ratio = DPS / EPS x 100

f) Price to Earnings Ratio (PE Ratio) The PE Ratio indicates the expectations of the equity investors about the earnings of the firm. The PE ratio is one of the most widely used measures of financial analysis in practice and is calculated as follows. Price to Earnings ratio = Market Price per Share /Earnings per Share. g) Return on Equity (RoE) The RoE examines profitability from the perspective of the equity investors by relating profits available for the equity share holders with the book value of the equity investment. Return on Equity = Net Income/Shareholder's fund h) Earning Yield Ratio The yield is defined as the rate of return on the amount invested. With the reference to equity shares, the yield may be defined as the rate of return on the market piece of equity shares. Earnings Yield Ratio = Earnings per share / Market price per share. i) Price to Book Value Ratio The book value of a share provides a floor below which the market price of a share is not expected to fall. Shares which have lower PB Ratio may be considered as a ‘safer’ investment and vice versa. Price to Book Ratio = Market price per share/Book value per share. 2. INTRINSIC VALUE The actual value of a company or an asset based on an underlying perception of its true value including all aspects of business in terms of both tangible and intangible factors. The value may or may not be same as the current market value. The true economic worth of the share is its intrinsic value. The fundamental analyst finds out intrinsic value of a share by using the formula: Intrinsic Value = Earnings per share x Price to Earnings ratio.

2.1. FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS Fundamental analysis is the study of economic, industry, and company conditions in an effort to determine the value of a company’s share. Fundamental analysis typically focuses on key statistics in a company’s financial statements to determine if the stock price is correctly valued. After determining the condition and outlook of the economy, the industry, and the company, the fundamental analyst determines if the company’s stock is overvalued, undervalued or correctly valued. Fundamental analysis covers various financial and non-financial aspects such as evaluation of the economy and industry scenario, company management and company financial position and so on.

Three phase of the fundamental analysis are: o Understanding of the Macro Economic environment and developments (Economic analysis) o Analyzing the prospectus of the industry to which the firm belongs (Industry analysis) o Assessing the performance of the company (Company analysis)
2.1.1. ECONOMY ANALYASIS Economic analysis deals with the analysis of operating in the overall economy. In security analysis, the expected course of the economy must be inquired into because overall economic conditions and economic activities affect corporate profits and investors’ expectations and thereby affect the security prices in decisions. Investors consider those variables of the economy, which affect the performance of the company in which they tend to invest. The economic variables used in this study such are:
Gross National Product (GNP) Gross Domestic Product (GDP) Inflation Rates Interest Rates Foreign Exchange Reserves Government Receipts and Expenditure
2.1.2. INDUSTRY ANALYSIS An industry described as a homogeneous group of companies. It may be defined as a group of firms producing reasonably similar products that serve the same need of a common set of buyers. The profitability of an industry depends upon its stage of growth. These externalities depend on the availabilities of inputs power and interrelations between the economy and industry. In India, companies like HUL, ITC, Marico have been a dominant force in the FMCG sector well supported by relatively less competition and high entry barriers (import duty was high). The industry analysis moves from macroeconomic analysis to microeconomic analysis. The process normally includes conducting thorough study of its three sub-heads, namely structural framework, School of Management Studies Vatakara, University of Calicut

industry lifecycle and competitive environment. In this study the growth of consumer goods industry is analyzed by comparing sales volume, expenditure, profit and income of the industry. A SWOT analysis of the FMCG industry also done in this study.
2.1.3. COMPANY ANALYSIS The investor should identify the leading competitive companies in each industry since this is where good investment values will be found. Company analysis attempts to study the various factors affecting and indicating the performance of a company, such as, competitive position of the company, quality of management, technology, product analysis, brand image and market share, marketing strategy, etc. Company financial analysis is the process of identifying the financial strengths and weaknesses of a company by properly establishing the relationship between the items of balance sheet, profit and loss account and other financial statements. The most powerful tools of financial analysis is ratio analysis. This study used the different ratios and intrinsic valuation model.
2.2. AUTHORS REVIEW A brief review of literature would help the researcher, reader and other research scholars in gaining an insight into the studies, which were made in areas related to the subject of this study. The findings of some of the studies are briefly summarized as follows. 1. SANDIP MUKHERJI, MANJEET, AND KIM (1997) Fundamental Analysis of Korean Stock Returns” in their article examined about the relation between stock return and fundamental variables in Korean firms annual stock returns during the period of 1982-83. The study found that stock returns are positively related to book-market ratio, sales-price ratio and debt-equity ratio. It is also found that return is negatively related to firm size and not significantly related to earnings price ratio. They suggested that book-market and sales-price ratios are more efficient School of Management Studies Vatakara, University of Calicut

indicators than the earnings-price and the debt-equity ratio. 2. JIANG XIA (2000) “Fundamental Analysis of Price on Chinese Steel Products” in his paper considered five fundamental factors such as price index of steel product, Gross National Product, exchange rates, interest rates, imports and exports are influencing over the price of steel products. A hedonic function model was applied which reflects the relation between prices of varieties of heterogeneous goods and empirical tests applied by using Chinese annual data for the year 1978. Study found that the above said variables are influencing at 62 per cent over the steel price. The price index and Gross Domestic Product have positive significant relation which depicts that higher the price index and Gross Domestic Product, higher the steel price. The exchange rate have negative impact over the steel price, the interest rate does not have influence over the steel price and finally it is found that import and export influence the steel price of the product. 3. MEHMET SARAC (2007) “Does Fundamental Analysis Matter for Foreign Investors? An Empirical Analysis of Foreign Investment in the Istanbul Stock Exchange” The paper analyzed about the buy and sell decisions of foreign investors are related to financial indicators of the firms listed on the Istanbul Stock Exchange. Based on the monthly data from January 2000 to April 2006, the study found that the operating leverage, profitability and solvency are the most important factors while investing in the manufacturing stocks. Foreign investors consider solvency is a major factor whereas, local investors considers the profitability of a firm. 4. JEFFERY ABARBANELL AND BRAIN BUSHEE (1977) “Fundamental Analysis, Future Earnings and Stock Prices”, in their study examined the relationship between accounting based fundamental signals and future earnings of security prices. They applied multiple regression analysis to analyze the data. The study found that investors are not completely relying on the information given by the analyst. They also found that the variables such as Gross Domestic Product, inflation, firm School of Management Studies Vatakara, University of Calicut

specific variables are prior earnings, expected earnings growth, relation between fundamental signal and future earnings, revisions and forecast errors are most influencing factors in fundamental analysis. 5. VIYYANNA RAO AND NIRMALA DAITA (2012) “Fundamental Factors Influencing Investments in Mutual Funds the EIC Approach: A Case Study of RCAMI” the study focused on fundamental analysis of mutual funds in India. The macro economic variables taken for this study, viz., RBI Bank Rate, Domestic savings, Gross Domestic Capital Formation, Money Supply, Gross National Product, Wholesale Price Index, and
Forex Reserves. Descriptive Statistics,
Correlation, Regression, Augmented Dickey Fuller test and Granger test has been applied. The economic analysis results found that all the variables were positively correlated with each other except bank rate and Wholesale price index. The industry analysis shows that Reliance, HDFC, ICICI Prudential, UTI and Birla Sun Life stood in the top five positions and its contribution as 57.02 per cent of the total assets. The remaining 33 players shared the rest of the 42.98 per cent of the industry. The company analysis results reveal that price earnings ratio and price to book ratio, fund size, market capitalization and Net assets value were found to be having a significant influence on the return of the funds.

INTERPRETATION The Table 1 represents the major economic indicators of our country which helps to the investors to make economic analysis towards investments. Gross Domestic Product indicates the rate of growth of the economy. The GDP of India during the period of 2013 to 2015 is increasing, which means the economy is growing. The highest growth rate of GDP is more favorable to the stock market. Gross National Product represents the aggregate value of goods and a service produced in a country which shows an increasing trend at the growth rate of 4.8% in 2013, 6.8% in 2014 and 7.4% in 2015, it represents the economic condition of a country which is going upward. During the year 2010 inflation rate shows as 10.9 per cent which was increased due to the shortfall of domestic production vis-à-vis demand and hardening of international prices, prices of primary commodities, especially rise in prices of food products. However, in 2015 the inflation rate is reduced to 6.4 per cent. The Interest rate is increased which helps to encourage the saving habit of an individual. Interest rates on deposits rate was highest in 2014 among the study period, it was 8 per cent. Interest rate suddenly downed to 6.75 in 2015.
The exchange rate indicates the stability of economic growth of a country. The exchange rate shows fluctuating trend from 61.83 to 66.16. It’s clearly shows that the value of rupee is decreasing when comparing to the US dollar. Foreign exchange reserve helps to preserve currency stability and reduce economic distresses. Foreign exchange reserve shows high trend during the period of 2013-15. The government expenditure exceeds over the receipts, the receipts and there is a small difference in between these two; in future it can be controllable due to effective money to develop our infrastructural activities economic policy. The government spent more because; once the infrastructure is developed it leads to potential economic growth.

4.1. FINDINGS OF THE STUDY ECONOMY ANALYSIS o Gross Domestic Product (GDP), Gross National Product (GNP), ForEx Reserves, and Government Receipts has a positive growth during the study period. Hence, the above said economic indicators are representing the economic growth of our country. So it’s favorable to the investors. o While excessive inflation and hyperinflation have negative economic consequences, inflation's negative consequences for the economy can be just as bad or worse. Consequently, policy makers since the end of the 20th century have attempted to keep inflation steady at 2% per year. But when analyzing the inflation rates of Indian economy it’s very higher than this standard. So it will adversely affect the FMCG industry also. o The appreciation of exchange rate makes exports more expensive and reduces the competitiveness of exporting firms. o The Government spends more money to the infrastructural activities. The infrastructure has played a major role in the present budget with a viewpoint that, once the infrastructure is developed, other sectors will automatically develop which leads to economic development of our country.

4.2. SUGGESTIONS o The Government could regulate inflation rate which creates the path to the economic development. Once the inflation rate is controlled the people have sufficient money and they have a chance to invest their money in the securities market. o The exchange rate of Rupee could control to increase the total export from the country. It will enrich the economy. o The Government should simplify the tax and regulations related with the FMCG sector. o The FMCG sector could improve the R&D department and implement new technology which helps to meet domestic as well as foreign competition. The government could provide tax concession for rural marketers. o Companies could try to increase the generation of profit for providing a better return to its shareholders. o DPS ratio of the companies shows that the dividend declared by the companies are decreasing in the recent years. So the companies could declare more dividends in their interim dividend declaration to attract more investors. o The DP Ratio shows the distribution of declared dividend is also diminishing. So the companies could increase the DPS for filling the gap between the DPS and EPS. o An investor should be aware about economic condition, market condition, Government policy and industrial policy, etc., they should analyze both internal as well as external factors before going to invest in particular securities. The prior analysis will help to the investor to minimize risk and maximize their return.
o Picking stocks with market prices below their intrinsic value can help in saving School of Management Studies Vatakara, University of Calicut

o The intrinsic value of ITC Ltd. is showing a slight increment in 2015, Further the company also shows a steady growth rate.
