DATA COLLECTION
Historical data of Titan Company Ltd and NIFTY50 index data (downloaded from NSE website for the period 01-Dec-24 to 30-Nov-2025).
The data was manipulated to get Friday closing prices.
DATA ANALYSIS
To examine the relationship between Titan Company Limited and the NIFTY 50 index, a regression analysis was carried out using weekly returns derived from historical price data for the period from 01 December 2024 to 30 November 2025. Weekly returns were calculated based on Friday closing prices.
The following linear regression model was used:
Regression Equation:
where:
y = Weekly return of Titan Company Limited
x = Weekly return of NIFTY 50 index
The regression equation indicates that Titan’s returns move in the same direction as the NIFTY 50, but with relatively lower sensitivity. A beta (β) value of 0.19 suggests that Titan is significantly less volatile than the overall market.
Number of Observations: 48
The t-statistic for β is approximately 2.10, and the corresponding p-value is approximately 0.04. Since the p-value is less than 0.05, the beta coefficient is statistically significant at the 5% level.
The coefficient of determination (R²) is approximately 0.18, which indicates that around 18% of the variation in Titan’s weekly returns can be explained by movements in the NIFTY 50 index. The remaining variation is influenced by company-specific and other market factors not included in the model.
The F-statistic value of approximately 4.41 indicates that the overall regression model is statistically significant.
Overall, the results show that while Titan Company Limited is positively correlated with the market, it exhibits lower volatility and relatively stable return behavior compared to the broader index.
CONCLUSION
The beta (β) value for Titan Company Ltd is approximately 0.19, which is less than 1. This indicates that Titan is less volatile than the market. Hence, Titan Company Ltd is considered suitable for risk-averse investors and for long-term investment strategies, especially during periods of market uncertainty.
