Abstract

In today’s complex financial markets, it is becoming increasingly difficult to select the right investment avenues. Each investment carries some risk and that it is vital to chose wisely. Investment has become complicated and is both an art and science. One makes investment for a return higher than what he can get by keeping the money in a commercial or cooperative bank or even in an investment bank. But the return is higher if the risk is also higher. Return and risk go together and they have a trade off. This study is to analyze the performance of 5 selected stocks in the banking sector namely – HDFC Bank, ICICI Bank, Yes Bank, Axis Bank, Kotak Mahindra Bank for the last five years. This study tries to identify the risk and return of selected banks and arrive at the best investment decision by using statistical tools such as beta, alpha, Correlation standard deviation, Coefficient of determination and mathematical tools such as ratios. This study not only helps to predict how the return will be, but also guides a prospective investor in making good investment decisions. Keywords: Investment decision, Risk, Return, Alpha, Beta, Perfomance Analysis, Ratio Analysis
