EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
The Research has been taken forward in Two Parts, Fundamental Analysis & Technical
Analysis. For Fundamental Analysis of stocks, research on Industry & Companies is required
where the Large-cap funds have been taken for the Purpose of analysing. A Study has been
undertaken to analyse the large Cap equity Shares of Companies of the Industry.
Initially it would be, Index Formulation
(Large Cap Funds Choosen From the sector) -this helps us in taking various decision based
on the movement of the shares.
Further, Fundamental Analysis has been done where Topline, Bottomline, Ratio Analysis &
Ratio Ranking Approach would be used for Shortlisting Growth - Pick & Value - Pick
Stocks. This would serve as the purpose of recommendation for the company working for and
for investors keen to invest in FMCG Industry. Finally, the research will be Technical
Analysis which basically will reflect an idea that the movement of share price follows a trend
and the factors which affect the movement of price. Under technical analysis we would
forecast the future price movement of stocks based on past price movement of the stocks. The
motto behind technical analysis is to know the trend and demand of the stocks.
Hence, this research would help the investors with the right direction for investing their
money. Therefore, in order to achieve the goal of maximizing returns and minimizing risk,
investors need to consider both the risk factors as well as the return factors of various stocks
of an industry. The outcome we get would be used for the purpose of making decision
regarding investment, asset allocation and coverage of risk while investing and a fund sheet
would be made accordingly.
In short, it consists studying the large cap stocks of FMCG industry through fundamental and
technical analysis which is finding the growth and value picks by using the financial ratios,
funneling down the best stocks to do asset allocation and track the movement of the stocks
through the charts and historical data of companies and making buy, sell or hold decisions
based on the Analysis

ABOUT FMCG INDUSTRY
Fast-moving consumer goods (FMCG) sector is India’s fourth-largest sector with household
and personal care accounting for 50% of FMCG sales in India. Growing awareness, easier
access and changing lifestyles have been the key growth drivers for the sector. The urban
segment (accounts for a revenue share of around 55%) is the largest contributor to the overall
revenue generated by the FMCG sector in India. However, in the last few years, the FMCG
market has grown at a faster pace in rural India compared to urban India. Semi-urban and
rural segments are growing at a rapid pace and FMCG products account for 50% of the total
rural spending.
MarketSize
The retail market in India is estimated to reach US$ 1.1 trillion by 2020 from US$ 840 billion
in 2017, with modern trade expected to grow at 20 25% per annum, which is likely to boost
revenue of FMCG companies. The FMCG market in India is expected to increase at a CAGR
of 14.9% to reach US$ 220 billion by 2025, from US$ 110 billion in 2020. According to
Nielsen, the Indian FMCG industry grew 9.4% in the January-March quarter of 2021,
supported by consumption-led growth and value expansion from higher product prices,
particularly for staples. The rural market registered an increase of 14.6% in the same quarter
and metro markets recorded positive growth after two quarters. Final consumption
expenditure increased at a CAGR of 5.2% during 2015-20. According to Fitch Solutions, real
household spending is projected to increase 9.1% YoY in 2021, after contracting >9.3% in
2020 due to economic impact of the pandemic. The FMCG sector's revenue growth will
double from 5-6% in FY21 to 10-12% in FY22, according to CRISIL Ratings. Price increases
across product categories will offset the impact of rising raw material prices, along with
volume growth and resurgence in demand for discretionary items, are driving growth. The
FMCG sector grew by 36.9% in the April-June quarter of 2021 despite lockdowns in various
parts of the country.

RESEARCH METHODOLOGY AND DESIGN
Methodology is an essential part of research to find answer to research objectives and initiate
the same. Therefore, it figures as the important part of any study. This focuses on the design
and research method utilised in the study. In addition, procedure followed to collect, process
and analyse data is presented.
Sources of Data
Secondary Data
SECONDARY DATA:
Secondary Data refers to data that was collected by someone other than the user. Secondary
data analysis can save time that would otherwise be spent collecting data, and particularly in
the case of quantitative data can provide larger and high – quality database that would be
unfeasible for any individual researcher to collect on their own. The sources of secondary
data are annual reports, browsing internet and through money control app.
It includes data gathered from the annual reports of the various companies coming under
FMCG sector.
Information is collected from the official websites, money control app and by doing sectoral
analysis using different methods.
11
TYPES OF FINANCIAL STATEMENT ADOPTED –
Balance Sheet
Income Statement
The project is on equity research analysis of the sectors. Hence study has to be done on the
basis of information and news available about the sectors i.e. secondary data by various
modes. This research has completed by doing Fundamental analysis and Technical analysis
of the companies.
SAMPLE DESIGN:
The sample of the stocks for the purpose of collecting primary and secondary data has been
selected on the basis of random sampling. The stocks are chosen in an unbiased manner and
each stock is chosen independent of the other stock chosen. The stocks are chosen from the
FMCG sector.
12
ADVANTAGES AND LIMITATIONS OF THE STUDY
Fundamental Analysis is a good tool for long-term investments that try to achieve a growth of
capital as it will help to identify assets that represent a good value in longer-term investment.
One of the most notable but less obvious rewards of fundamental analysis is the development
of solid understanding of the business and industry due to the in-depth, extensive research
and analysis required to conduct fundamental analysis.
1. This study has been conducted purely to understand equity analysis for investors.
4. Detailed study of the topic was not possible due to limited size of the project.
5. There was a constraint with regard to time allocation for the research study i.e. for a period of
30 days.
13
INTRODUCTION TO EQUITY MARKET
A stock market, equity market or share market is the aggregation of buyers and sellers (a
loose network of economic transactions, not a physical facility or discrete entity) of stocks
(also called shares), which represent ownership claims on businesses; these may include
securities listed on a public stock exchange, as well as stock that is only traded privately.
Examples of the latter include shares of private companies which are sold to investor’s
through equity crowd funding platforms. Stock exchanges list shares of common equity as
well as other security types, e.g. corporate bonds and convertible bonds.
APPROACHES TO INVESTING
STRATEGIES
14
Fundamental Analysis
Technical Analysis
Technical analysis studies price actions in markets through the use of charts and quantitative
techniques to attempt to forecast price trends regardless of the company's financial prospects.
Index Method
Additionally, many choose to invest via the index method. In this method, one holds a
weighted or unweighted portfolio consisting of the entire stock market or some segment of
the stock market (such as the S&P 500 or Wilshire 5000). The principal aim of this strategy is
to maximize diversification, minimize taxes from too frequent trading, and ride the general
trend of the stock market.
15
INTRODUCTION TO CAPITAL MARKET (STOCKMARKET)
Capital market is a financial market where various debt and equities are being bought and sold.It’s
a place where different entities trade various financial institutions. The place includes stock
market, bond market, foreign exchange market and currency market.
Capital markets basically sell financial products like equity and debt securities. Equities are shares,
stocks that gives ownership in a company whereas, debt securities such as bonds are interest
bearing. In our report, we will only deal with stock market.
PRIMARY MARKET
SECONDARY MARKET
PRIMARY MARKET:
This market is open to specific investors who directly buy securities from issuing company. These
types of securities are called Initial Public Offerings (IPO) or primary offerings.
SECONDARY MARKET:
It is a place where existing or already issued securities are being traded. For e.g.: New York Stock
exchange (NYSE) and NASDAQ. Capital Markets are important part of functioning modern
economy as they move money from people who have it to the people who need it for productive
use.
STOCK MARKET
Stock market is a collection of exchanges and markets where regular activity of buying, selling
and issuance of shares of public companies take place.
Though it is called an equity market or stock market and primarily known for trading stocks/
equities, and other securities like- corporate bonds, ETFs (exchange traded funds) and derivatives
based on stocks, commodities are also traded in stock market.
16
Indian stock exchange
Indian Stock Exchange is the oldest stock market in Asia. There are 2 stock exchanges in India:
BSE: It is located in Dalal Street, Mumbai. It was established in 1875 and is Asia’s first stock
exchange.
The BSE became the first stock exchange to be recognized by the Indian Government under the
Securities Contracts Regulation Act. In 1986, it developed S&P BSE Sensex index, giving the
BSE a means to measure the overall performance of the exchange.
In 2000, the BSE used this index to open its derivatives market, trading S&P BSE SENSEX
futures contracts. It consists of top 30 companies.
NSE: In April 1992, the Bombay stock Exchange (BSE) crashed due to Harshad Mehta Scam.
So, Finance Minister urged the need of other stock exchange in competition to BSE. He told
Indian Development Bank (IDB) to take the project and create other stock exchange.
Thus, in November 1992, National Stock Exchange (NSE), the first electronically traded stock
exchange in India established.
17
LIVE TRADING-INDEX METHOD
LIVE TRADING -
Live trading is an act of participating in the financial markets, which seeks to outperform
traditional buy-and-hold investing. Instead of waiting to profit from long-term investments in the
markets, traders seek short-term price movement in order to earn profit during both rising and
falling markets. These platforms are normally provided by internet based brokers like Share khan
and are accessible to every single individual who wants to make money from the market.
Meaning of Index -
Stock market indexes measure the value of a segment of a country’s stock market by the method
of weighted average of selected stocks. These indexes help investors and analysts describe the
market and compare different investments. Stocks in numerical terms. As the stocks within an
index change value, the index value also changes accordingly.
The stocks could be selected on the basis of the type of industry, market capitalisation or the size
of the company. The value of the stock market index is calculated using values of the underlying
stocks. Any change taking place in the prices of underlying stock impact the overall value of the
index. If the prices of most of the underlying stocks rise, then the index will rise and vice-versa. In
this way, a stock index reflects overall market sentiment and direction of price movements of
products in the financial, commodities or any other markets.
18
STEPS TO CALCULATE STOCK MARKET INDEX (FMCG SECTOR)
1. Note down the Daily closing price of the stocks (as per your sector).
2. Calculate the Market Capitalization by multiplying the closing price with No. of shares.
3. Next step in the process is to calculate the Weightage of all the stocks by dividing the individual
market cap with total market capitalization.
4. Percentage Change in price is calculated by - (Current Price- Base Price)/ Base Price*100
6. Last step is to calculate the Final Value - (Change in weightage*1000/100) assuming base to be
1000
19
FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS:
Fundamental analysis is the examination of the underlying forces that influence the prosperity of
the economy, business groups, and organizations. Similarly, as with most analysis, the objective is
to derive a forecast and benefit from future price movements. At the organization level,
Fundamental analysis may include examination of financial information, the board, business idea
and competition.
At the business level, there may be an examination of supply and demand forces for the fair value.
Fundamentalists don't need the counsel of the random walkers and trust that markets are weak
form efficient. By trusting that prices don't accurately reflect all accessible data, fundamental
analysts look to capitalize on perceived price discrepancies.

21
STAGE 1: SELECTION OF COMPANY & CONSIDERING ITS P/E
RATIO:
Steps:
1. Select a sector for doing the analysis (for Ex- Cement, Automobile, telecom etc.)
2. As the investment in mutual funds is long term, therefore take large cap stocks from that
sector and some mid cap stocks.
3. Get the P/E value of every stock. It can be calculated or can be seen in the company details.
4. Calculate Industrial P/E by taking the average of the P/E’s of the stocks in the list.
6. If the value is above Industrial P/E then it’s overvalued and If below then Undervalued.
22
STAGE2: FINDING VALUEPICK STOCKS (UNDERVALUEDSTOCKS)
The stocks which are undervalued are judges on the basis of top line and bottom line i.e.,
revenues and profits and the following is done:
If both the top line and bottom line either increases or one increases and the other decreases,
then we chose those stocks to be value picks and consider them to be hidden gems for the
industry.
Explanation – There is an increase in revenue and decrease in the profit. Hence, the
company should be selected.

STAGE 4: RANKING
Now when we have value pick and growth pick stocks list, we’ll see how much investment
should be done in which stock and for that we have to rank them. The highest ranked will get
the maximum allocation of the fund and the lowest ranked will have minimum.
The ranking is done by comparing the important financial ratios of the sector in which the
companies are lying. And we also see the factors of the companies. Ranking is given to all
the value pick stocks separately and the growth pick stocks separately. The highest ranked
stock will get the highest investment in value pick stocks and growth pick stocks.

TECHNICAL ANALYSIS
The objective of analysis is to forecast the direction of the future price. By focusing on price
and only price, technical analysis represents a direct approach while Fundamentalists are
concerned with why the price is what it is.
Based on the duration of analysis, technical analysis can be categorized into two types:
29
Steps in Technical Analysis-
1. Study the past movement in share price and identify the trends and establish patterns.
2. Look at the current movement in the share price and identify the trends and establish patterns.
1. The market value of a share is related to the demand and supply factors prevailing in the
market.
2. There are both rational factors which surrounds the supply and demand factors of security.
3. Security prices behaves in a manner that their movements are continuous in particular
direction for some length of time.
4. Trends in stock prices have been seen to change when there is shift in demand and supply.
5. The shift in demand and supply factors can be detected through charts prepared specifically
to show market action.
30
Advantages of Technical Analysis:
In case of pure technical analysis, there is very little or no room for interpretation. Thus, the
system becomes Mechanical.
Technical analysis helps traders and investors alike to review their investment decisions
faster. This is because prices tend to discount, i.e. anticipate, fundamental information much
before an actual event takes place.
The advent of low-priced personal computer systems had made the use of technical analysis
even less difficult to test and employ.
Today no of technical analysis charting software are available which will help you to
generate buy and sell signals for you.
31
Disadvantages of Technical Analysis:
Technical Analysis is not a valid scientific approach because most methods studyprices based
upon price related data. Therefore, it is necessary that a trader continuously review his trading
systems to check its work ability.
The basis of technical analysis may be easy to learn but rather difficult to implement and
master.
Most traders tend to oscillate between different approaches and thus fail to follow through
with their analysis in a consistent manner, and this ultimately results into losses more often
than profit.
32
THERE ARE 3 TYPE OF TRENDS:
1. UPWARD TREND:
2. DOWNTREND TREND:
33
3. SIDEWAYS:
These trends can analyse securities in long term as well as in short term.
In long term, chart pattern is used whereas in short term, Candlestick pattern is used.
A change in the price direction of an asset is called trend reversal. Trend reversal can occur
upside or downside. Following an uptrend, a reversal would be to the downside. Following a
downtrend, a reversal would be to the upside. Trend reversals are based on overall price
direction and are not typically based on one or two periods/bars on a chart.
There are 6 possibilities in trend reversal: -
34
5. Sideways, a reversal would go upside.
A candlestick is a type of price chart used in technical analysis that displays the high, low,
open, and closing prices of a security for a specific period. It originated from Japanese rice
merchants and traders to track market prices and daily momentum hundreds of years before
becoming popularized in the United States. The wide part of the candlestick is called the "real
body" and tells investors whether the closing price was higher or lower than the opening price
(black/red if the stock closed lower, white/green if the stock closed higher).
CLASSIFICATION OF CANDLESTICKS
35
BULLISH:
BEARISH:
36
CANDLESTICK PATTERNS
Both are REVERSAL SIGNALS but it is better to wait for confirmation candle of the Trend
Reversal.
37
INVERTED HAMMER & SHOOTING STAR:
It is better to wait for colour changing candle to confirm the Trend Reversal.
38
BULLISH & BEARISH ENGULFING:
It is formed when the body of 2nd candle covers the body of 1st candle.
The colour of the 1st candle should be of the following Trend & the 2nd candle should be the
Trend Reversal.
39
PIERCING LINE & DARK CLOUD COVER:
In both the patterns the 2nd candle covers 50% or more of the 1st candle's real body.
40
BULLISH & BEARISH HARAMI:
HARAMI is formed when the body of the 2nd candle is placed within the vertical range of
the 1st candle.
41
DIFFERENT CHARTS AND THEIR ANALYSIS IN LONG TERM
Technical Analysis helps in identifying long term trend by analysing the change in price over
a period of time. There are different shapes and curves that are formed while doing this
analysis and these curves help us to predict bid and ask point.Money can be easily made
using this indicator as per the market situations.
Different types of chart patterns & graphs are used for analyzing the trends. Most frequently
used chart patterns are mentioned below-
1. Rounding bottom
2. Cup with handle
3. Bump and Run reversal
4. Head & Shoulder (Top and Bottom)
5. Double Top
6. Double Bottom
7. Flag, pennant
42
ROUNDING BOTTOM:
Rounding bottom is a long-term reversal pattern that is mostly used for weekly charts. It is
also known to as a saucer bottom, and depicts a long consolidation period that change from a
bearish bias to a bullish bias. A rounding bottom could be thought of as a head and shoulders
bottom without readily identifiable shoulders. The head shows the low and is fairly central to
the pattern. The patterns of volume are same and confirmation comes with a resistance
breakout. While symmetry is preferable on the rounding bottom, the left and right side do not
have to be equal in time or slope.
43
CUP WITH HANDLE:
A Cup and Handle chart represents a bullish continuation pattern in which the upward trend
has paused but will follow an upward direction once the pattern is confirmed. Pattern of the
price shows what looks like a cup, which is preceded by an upward trend. The handle follows
the cup formation and is formed by a generally downward/sideways movement in the
security's price. After the price movement pushes above the resistance lines formed in the
handle, the upward trend can continue. There is a long time frame for this type of pattern,
with the span ranging from several months to more than a year.
44
BUMP AND RUN REVERSAL:
The Bump and Run Reversal (BARR) is a type of reversal pattern that takes shape, after
excessive speculation drives prices up too far, too fast. There are three main stages to the
pattern: lead-in, bump and run.
Lead-in Stage: The first part of the pattern is a lead-in phase that can last 1 month or longer
and forms the basis from which to draw the trend line. During this phase, prices advance in
an orderly manner and there is no excess speculation. The trend line should be moderately
steep. If it is toosteep,thentheensuingbumpisunlikelytobesignificantenough.
BumpStage:Thebumpformswithasharpadvance,andpricesmovefurtherawayfromthelead-in
trend line. Ideally, the angle of the trend line from the bump's advance should be about
50%greaterthanthe angleofthetrendlineextendingupfromthelead-inphase.
Run Stage: The run phase begins when the pattern breaks support from the lead-in trend
line.Priceswillsometimeshesitateorbounceoffthetrendlinebeforebreakingthrough.Oncethebreak

45
HEAD AND SHOULDER (TOP):
The pattern contains three successive peaks with the middle peak (head) being the highest
and the two outside peaks (shoulders) being low and roughly equal. The reaction lows of each
peak can be connected to form support, or a neckline. Depending on the relationship between
the two low points, the neckline can slope up, slope down or be horizontal. This determines
the selling point.
46
HEAD AND SHOULDERS (BOTTOM):
As a major reversal pattern, the head and shoulders bottom forms after a downtrend, and its
completion marks a change in trend. The pattern contains three successive troughs with the
middle trough (head) being the deepest and the two outside troughs (shoulders) being
shallower. Ideally, the two shoulders would be equal in height and width. The reaction highs
in the middle of the pattern can be connected to form resistance, or a neckline. This
determines the buying point.
47

moderate trough in between. Although there can be variations, the classic double top marks at
least an intermediate change, if not long-term change, in trend from bullish to bearish.
Different double tops can form along the way up, but until key
support is broken, a reversal cannot be confirmed.

CONCLUSION
Equity research plays a very crucial role in order to make wise investment decisions. After
having accessed your risk capacity and tolerance followed by time horizon and intention of
investment, the individual portfolio can fetch your systematic returns.
Relative valuation model is one such method for value analysis. One can use long term and
short-term technical analysis along with fundamental analysis to determine a confirm trade
signal. By calculating long term target price investor one can achieve maximum profit and
also get an idea for how much period they should hold the stock.
Fundamental analysis also works as the key for technical analysis. Fundamental helps you to
search for suitable stocks based on financial factors and technical analysis helps you search
for a suitable stock by studying and interpreting price charts. Creating wealth takes time,
share market also gives returns with time though it can take a few years. As we traded, we
realized trading on intraday doesn’t give much returns but intraday or derivatives can give
good benefits on the returns

RECOMMENDATIONS
Before investing in a company, one should always do his/her homework regarding the
company/business the person wants to invest and also invest according to one’s risk capacity
as it differs from person to person.
The decision to buy or sell a stock should not depend on what your friends or relatives say. It
is always prudent to invest systematically and with patience in the right shares or funds. As
the stock market is always volatile, an investor should be ready to absorb calculated risk and
decide a necessary course of action.
By diversifying a portfolio across asset classes, you can help earn optimum returns with
minimum risk. The kind and level of diversification can vary from investor to investor, and it
can help cope up with volatility.
Future and options are less explored by the traders; many companies are not giving call or put
options. Strategies of options can help to gear the profit from market and also insure to
reduce the risk of loss.
