\u25cf Objective : To find of Beta of Just dial Ltd.<\/b><\/p>\n
\u25cf Literature Review :<\/b><\/p>\n
1. Stock Market & Beta Relationship: Beta (\u03b2) is a key financial metric used to measure a <\/b>stock\u2019s volatility relative to the overall market. Research suggests that high-beta stocks <\/b>move more aggressively with the market, while low-beta stocks are more stable. The <\/b>NIFTY50 index, representing India’s top companies, serves as a benchmark for <\/b>evaluating stock performance, and beta estimation helps investors assess systematic <\/b>risk and potentialreturns.<\/b><\/p>\n
2. Justdial Ltd. & Market Sensitivity: As a technology-driven company, Justdial Ltd.’s stock <\/b>may exhibit varying correlation with NIFTY50 due to industry trends and market <\/b>sentiment. Previous studies indicate that firms in dynamic sectors often experience <\/b>fluctuating beta values. This study aims to calculate Justdial\u2019s beta using historical stock <\/b>price data and regression analysis with NIFTY50 returns to determine its risk exposure <\/b>and market sensitivity.<\/b><\/p>\n
\u25cf Data Collection : Data for Just dial Limited and Nifty 50 was downloaded for the <\/b>period from 1st January 2024 to 31st December 2024. The data was manipulated to <\/b>calculate the Friday closing prices for both indices. The Nifty 50 was represented as X <\/b>and Just dial Limited as Y. A linear regression analysis was performed where Y was <\/b>regressed on X.<\/b><\/p>\n
\u25cf Data Analysis :<\/b><\/p>\n
The regression equation: Y= 0.005 + 0.683X describes the relationship between the Nifty 50 (X) <\/b>and the Just dial share price variable (Y) indicating that Just dial share price is the dependent <\/b>variable .The positive coefficient of 0.683 suggests that for every unit increase in Nifty50 , Just <\/b>dial share price is expected to increase by 0.683 units. <\/b>With 47 observations (N = 47), the model\u2019s R-squared value is 0.0266, indicating that only 2.66% o<\/b>f the variation in Just dial share price can be explained by changes in Nifty50, while the r<\/b>emaining 97.34% is due to other factors. The p-value for the slope is 0.2732, which is greater <\/b>than 0.05, indicating that the relationship between X and Yis not statistically significant at the <\/b>5% level. Consequently, this model does not provide strong evidence of a significant linear relationship between Nifty50 and Just dial share price.<\/b><\/p>\n
\u25cf Conclusion :<\/b><\/p>\n
If beta is greater than 1, the stock is more volatile and may be suitable for short-term investment.<\/b><\/p>\n
If beta is less than 1, the stock is less volatile and may be better for long-term investment.<\/b><\/p>\n
In this case, Just dial Ltd.\u2019s beta of 0.68 indicates that it is less volatile than the market and <\/b>better suitable for long-term investment.<\/b><\/p>\n
