How Securities are traded in
Stock Exchange
● The term "security" is a fungible, negotiable financial
instrument that holds some type of monetary value.
● It represents an ownership position in a publicly-traded
corporation—via stock—a creditor relationship with a
governmental body or a corporation—represented by owning that
entity's bond—or rights to ownership as represented by an option.

Type of securities
Securities can be broadly categorized
into two distinct types
Hybrid
• The stock market is where everyone who wants to transact in shares goes to.
• Transact in simple terms means buying and selling. For all practical purposes, you can’t
buy/sell shares of a public company like Infosys without transacting through the stock
markets.
• The main purpose of the stock market is to help you facilitate your transactions. So if you
are a buyer of a share, the stock market helps you meet the seller and vice versa.
• The stock market does not exist in a brick and mortar form. It exists in electronic form. You
access the market electronically from your computer and go about conducting your
transactions (buying and selling of shares).
• Also, it is important to note that you can access the stock market via a registered
intermediary called the stockbroker.

● Participants don’t get involved in unfair practices
● Corporate’s don’t use the markets to unduly benefit themselves
(Example – Satyam Computers)

markets

Stock Market Index
The Index is a composition of many stocks from
different sectors which collectively represents
the state of the economy
Practical uses of the Index

2. Benchmarking
3. Trading
4. Portfolio Hedging
Index construction methodology
• To include a stock in the index it should qualify certain criteria. Once qualified as an index stock, it should
continue to qualify on the stated criteria. If it fails to maintain the criteria, the stock gets replaced by another stock
that qualifies the prerequisites.
• Each stock in the index should be assigned a certain weightage. Weightage in simpler terms defines how much
importance a certain stock in the index gets compared to the others.
• The weights are assigned based on the free-float market capitalization of the company, the larger the market
capitalization, the higher is the weight.
• Free float market capitalization is the product of the total number of shares outstanding in the market, and the
price of the stock.
• For example company, ABC has a total of 100 shares outstanding in the market, and the stock price is at 50 then
the free-float market cap of ABC is 100*50 = Rs.5,000.

longer time duration, the duration can run into
anywhere between few days to weeks.
