ABSTRACT
The term "market" can have many different meanings. One usage of the term denotes the primary market and
the secondary market. These two markets distinguish between the market where securities are created and the
market where they are traded among investors. Their function is the key in understanding how securities are
traded. The primary market is where securities are created. It's in this market that firms sell (float) new stocks
and bonds to the public for the first time. Secondary market is where most trading occurs, the secondary market
is the one in which securities are traded after having been initially offered in the primary market. It is
basically a market in which an investor purchases an asset from another investor, rather than an issuing
corporation. This includes the NYSE, NASDAQ and all major exchanges around the world. The defining
characteristic of the secondary market is that investor’s trade among themselves. For example, if you go to
buy Microsoft stock, you are dealing only with another investor who owns shares in Microsoft. Microsoft (the
company) is in no way involved with the transaction. However there was an improvement in the
mechanism of trading whereby it was seen that there was a shift from the traditional method of physical
trading to the updated version of online trading.
INTRODUCTION
Online brokerage has grown substantially since the introduction of Internet and now account for 40%-50%
of retail trade. This change has come in because individual investors want to increase control over their
finances and do not want someone else to manage the money. Online trading has become very popular
in last couple of years because of convenience of ease and use. Numerous companies have gone on-line
to meet their customer’s demands enabling them to trade when they want and how they want to. Online trade,
which now accounts for 50%-60% of all retail trade, is forecasted to increase to 70% by 2008. At present online
brokers hold $574billion in assets but this figure is expected to grow to $4 trillion by end of 2007. The market
has become saturated and very competitive. As the number of players increase, it becomes very difficult
to differentiate. The volatility in US equity, market in 1999 and September 11 World Trade Center attack has
hurt the online brokerage trading volumes. Established E-brokerage firms have created bearer to entry
that makes it difficult for new player to enter into the market. Dematerialization the process by which 8
![Page 9: Swot Analysis of Demat Account Services Reliance Securities](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022081420/577cc3a41a28aba71196ac14/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
physical certificates of an investor are converted to an equivalent number of securities in electronic form and
credited in the investor's account with his (DP) Depository Party. Only those certificates that are already
registered in your name and are in the list of securities are admitted for Dematerialization at NSDL/ CDSL.
Demat shares are supposed to obviate all the problems of physical trading. The biggest attraction of trading in
Demat shares is that the shares an investor buys comes with a clean title and immediately after the
settlement on the relevant stock exchange. Buying shares in the Demat form always guarantees the
investor a good title as soon as the settlement is over and hence it is a preferred mode of trading
today and will be so in the future also.
STATEMENT OF PROBLEM
Online trading and Demat are the two emerging concepts in stock market. It involves personal factors,
technical factors, business factors and economic factors. The interplay of these factors on stock market
requires a deep study about the pattern process and procedures and performance. This study is intended to
identify the various concepts about Demat and the online trading and its way of functioning.
NEED FOR THE STUDY
Physical trading has been given up by many stock exchange around the world and till India is
catching up. Transparency has become an important issue with the regular series of scams over the
years. At this junction, Indian investors are able to avail the facilities of Depository participants,
Depositories, along with Brokerage. So how far this system is working in India and the investors experience
with these new system of trading.
OBJECTIVES OF THE STUDY

assets, which the corporation has inherited, have deep roots and justify full discussion in its historical

INDIAN E-BROKING SCENARIO
The Indian stock broking business has gone through a sea of changes. From that of a business dominated
by few individual players to institutional members, as did trading open outcry and hidden deeds to screen
best and transparency. India enters the cyber-trading era to equal the current market trends taking into
consideration the need to facilitate inflow of funds in the capital market. The trading system will enable all
categories of investors, resident and non-resident Indian, to trade online. Online brokerage in India is still in
its early days. Though the trade through online broking is very miniscule compare to total trading, the signs
are that it will grow to 30% -35% in next few years.
EFFECT ON OFF-LINE BUSINESS
With the emergence of e-broking, which offers many benefits like, level playing filled to all investors,
comfort of the house, simplicity, low brokerage and value added services it could be possible for some of
the offline trade to shift to online trade. The proportion of online broking business compare to off line
broking is miniscule about less than 1%. The offline player would not be affected unless the figure
reaches a minimum of 8-10%. Online trade has not started to eat the volumes of, off line business till
now. But at the same time it has created new set of clients for e.g., NRI‟s who were not very active in the
10
![Page 11: Swot Analysis of Demat Account Services Reliance Securities](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022081420/577cc3a41a28aba71196ac14/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
market due to lack of transparency and information, have moved to use this facility. Housewives are
another new category. Net savvy student’s and retired persons are the next expected category.
Depository services-beginning of the era of stocks at click Today it is a practical reality that one can arrange
delivery of securities (shares) sold anytime, anywhere to anyone by a „click‟ of the mouse and it is
possible to trade in securities and settlement of the accounts from the convenience of a sitting room or
via a laptop. The depository is responsible to deliver and receive securities trade at the stock exchange,
which are the business partners of the depository. It does not deal with financial aspect of the settlement of
the trade. Dematerialization of securities (shares) was the commencement of the era of stocks. The
beginning was made in 1996, with legislation of the depository act 1996 and SEBI regulations 1996.
FINDINGS
After the introduction of dematerialization the stock market has become more transparent and it attracts
more investors day by day.
If the volume increases continuously, DPs will be in a position to decrease the charges for opening and
maintenance of demat a/c.
It is observed that banks normally levy a lower service charge compared to other depository
participants.
There are some other banks which charges less services charges for demat services than other
securities companies.
When the numbers of users are more on line, the speed of the transaction is affected.
Since the rolling settlement is one day, people who are speculating without having full amount of
money or shares with their DP, tend to face higher degree of risk.
Some securities have not yet started with the Interactive Voice Response (IVR) units and demat
on net.
Even though online trading provides privacy to the clients, trends available from the trading room will
not help most of the online traders.
investors dealing online must possess good knowledge for analyzing the information passed on
by the companies through net.

Online service depends highly on technology.
CONCLUSION
Notwithstanding many problems, Indian stock market has emerged as a significant financial intermediary,
assisting efficient resource allocation, providing strong support to Indian economy and help investors to
realize the benefits of stock market investing. The growing importance of the Indian stock market place may
be noted in terms of increased mobilization of funds and growing number of investors account. Indian
stock market industry has remained centered around a limited product range. This has happened due to
the tendency to avoid risk, inability to understand future market development and changes in investor
preference. The absence of product diversification and a confused market situation has been made more
by the absence of an innovative marketing network. Online is considered as one of the innovative network. The
product range offered by stock broking firms needs to be redesigned to cater the changes in the short term,
medium term and long term savings and investment markets. Management is considered to be a key for the
operational efficiency of any business venture. This factor becomes even more crucial for service
ventures such as stock broking business venture. Stock market industry must undertake a well-designed
and comprehensive program of investor education especially aimed at investors in rural and semi-urban
areas. However this has been mostly neglected in India. In India most of the broking business comes from
the small investors and efforts are concentrated on serving them efficiently, and this would help them
in being a good intermediary for providing various financial services due to it‟s reach to the last mile.SEBI
has been playing a significant role in the regulation of stock market. SEBI‟s steps like dematerializing, and
trading through net etc. has increased the transparency of the trading than before. In the global market
place no industry can afford to be struck by inertia. But it is management which is crucial to the
success of any business operation.

CHAPTER 3- NEED OF THE STUDY
The need of the study arises because of the reason that a trainee must understand the
company, its achievements and tasks, products and services and also to collect information
about its competitors, its products and services offered. So that, after understanding and
collecting information about the organization and its competitors, a trainee will be able to
work well for the organization.
From the study I have learned very much, about the company as well as the strategy of the
customers, which helps me a lot at my working days.

![Page 23: Swot Analysis of Demat Account Services Reliance Securities](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022081420/577cc3a41a28aba71196ac14/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Demat account
There are many broking houses doing business in India and they charge a brokerage on every transaction made
online or offline. (Buying and Selling are treated as separate transaction). Reliance Money’s advantage over
others is that it’s charging the lowest brokerage in the market which is just 1 paisa on every executive trade
irrespective of the volume traded. Reliance Money, the brokerage and distribution arm of Reliance ADA
Group, aims to tap investors in the smaller towns and cities through a flat fee structure.
The new wonder is Reliance Money's pre-paid card for stock market brokerage. Reliance Money, the financial
services division of Anil Dhirubhai Ambani Group-promoted Reliance Capital, is bringing to the market pre-
paid cards in denominations of Rs500, Rs1000, Rs. 2500, Rs. 5,000 and Rs.10000. Target low level of retail
penetration in India - less than 3 per cent of household financing savings makes it into equity markets. Reliance
Money Demat Account Holders can trade in
Equities
Equity investment generally refers to the buying and holding of shares of stock on a stock market by individuals
and funds in anticipation of income from dividends and capital gain as the value of the stock rises. It also
sometimes refers to the acquisition of equity (ownership) participation in a private (unlisted) company or a
start-up (a company being created or newly created).
Commodities
A single platform to trade on both the major commodity exchanges i.e. NCDEX and MCX. In addition In-house
research desk shall provide research reports on all major commodities which shall enable in getting views for
trading and diversify client’s holdings. Trade Execution assistance is also provided to clients.
Offshore Investments Offshore investment is the keeping of money in a jurisdiction other than one's country of residence. Offshore
jurisdictions are a commonly accepted solution to reducing excessive tax burdens levied in most countries to
both large and small scale investors alike. The advantage to this is that such operations are both legal and less
costly than the solutions offered in the investor's country - or "onshore".
Offshore solutions are accessible to anyone who can meet the minimum investment amount or pay the
obligatory fees required to open such an entity.
Another reason why 'offshore' investment is superior to 'onshore' investment is because it is less regulated, and
the behaviour of the offshore investment provider, whether he be a banker, fund manager, trustee or stock-
broker, is freer than it could be in a more regulated environment. Reliance Money has already tied-up with
CMC Capital Plc UK to offer offshore Investment products to Indian consumers as per guidelines.

CHAPTER 5- Theoretical Background
RELIANCE DEMAT ACCOUNTS
Overview of Demat Account
In India, a Demat account the abbreviation for dematerialised account, is a type of banking account which
dematerializes paper-based physical stock shares. The dematerialised account is used to avoid holding physical
shares: the shares are bought and sold through a stock broker. This account is popular in India. The Securities
and Exchange Board of India (SEBI) mandates a demat account for share trading above 500 shares. As of April
2006, it became mandatory that any person holding a demat account should possess a Permanent Account
Number (PAN), and the deadline for submission of PAN details to the depository lapsed on January 2007.
Procedure
1. Fill Demat request form (DRF) (obtained from a depository participant or DP with whom your depository
account is opened).
2. Deface the share certificate(s) you want to dematerialize by writing across Surrendered for dematerialisation.
3. Submit the DRF & share certificate(s) to DP. DP would forward them to the issuer / their R&T Agent.
4. after dematerialisation, your depository account with your DP, would be credited with the dematerialised
securities.

Points to Remember

their R&T Agent. Thus it may take you a month from the date you hand over shares, to receive demat credit.
4. Dematerialization would be done only when the issuer / their R&T Agent is satisfied of genuineness of
securities & ownership status
5. All the joint holders should sign the DRF.
6. The pattern of holding in the DRF should match the pattern of holding on the share certificate & the pattern
in which account is opened.
7. Demat requests with name(s) not matching exactly with the name(s) appearing on the certificates merely on
account of initials not being spelt out fully or put after or prior to the surname, would be processed, provided
the signature(s) of the client(s) on the DRF tallies with the specimen signature(s) available with the issuer/ their
R & T agent.
8. If the signature in the DRF does not match with the signature available with the issuer/ their R & T agent,
the issuer/ their R & T agent may at the time of demat confirmation, ask for additional documentation (like
Bank attestation/ notarisation, etc.) to prove that the certificate belongs to the person who forwarded the DRF.

you may contact NSDL.
