ABSTRACT

This research is done in the field of Indian share markets taking into account only
three years data from Feb. 2007 to Feb 2010. The research includes how the share
prices of various selected companies vary w.r.t. to economic factors. The research
work includes the collection of data regarding the share prices of the selected
companies during the past three years and the SENSEX. Simultaneously, I have
searched through various Indian journals in our library, located books listed in the
library catalogue and traced through the list of references provided in various
research works. The main objective is to study how share prices vary w.r.t economic
factors and to enable the investors in exploring the investment opportunities using the
economic indicators.
Moreover, a large number of works are merely descriptive or prescriptive without
rigorous analysis. Certain areas such as arbitrage pricing theory, option pricing theory,
agency theory, and signaling theory are virtually unrehearsed in the Indian context.
Besides, very little theoretical work has been done by researchers in India. However,
with improved availability of databases and computing resources, and with increasing
global interest in Indian markets, we expect an explosion of
Work in the near future.
