Regression equation<\/span><\/b> Y=(a+bX) that is
<\/span>Hindustan Petroleum Corporation Limited<\/span> = (0.0000264+1.3537888 Nifty50) <\/span><\/p>\n

Data Collection:<\/span><\/b>
Data for<\/span> Hindustan Petroleum Corporation Limited<\/span> and Nifty 50 was downloaded for the period from 1st January, 2024 to 31st December, 2024. The data was manipulated to calculate the Friday closing prices for both indices. The Nifty 50 was represented as X and Axis Bank Limited as Y. A linear regression analysis was performed where Y was regressed on X.<\/span><\/p>\n

Data Analysis:<\/span><\/b> Hindustan Petroleum Corporation Ltd. (HPCL) Share Price vs. Nifty 50<\/span><\/p>\n

The regression equation describes the relationship between the Nifty 50 (X) and the Hindustan Petroleum Corporation Ltd. (HPCL) share price (Y). Indicating that the HPCL share price is the dependent variable, while the Nifty 50 is the independent variable. The positive coefficient of 1.353788871 suggests that for every 1% increase in the Nifty 50’s weekly return, HPCL’s weekly share price is expected to increase by approximately 1.35%. With 47 observations, the model’s R-squared value is 0.085782218, implying that approximately 8.58% of the variation in HPCL’s weekly share price returns can be explained by changes in the Nifty 50’s weekly returns, while the remaining 91.42% is attributed to other factors not included in the model. The p-value for the slope is 0.045726688, which is less than the conventional threshold of 0.05, indicating that the relationship between the Nifty 50’s weekly returns and HPCL’s weekly share price returns is statistically significant at the 5% level. Consequently, this model provides evidence of a statistically significant linear relationship between the Nifty 50’s weekly returns and HPCL’s weekly share price returns, suggesting that market movements have a meaningful impact on the company’s share price returns, although the impact is relatively small compared to other potential influencing factors.<\/span><\/p>\n

Conclusion:<\/span><\/b> Hindustan Petroleum Corporation Ltd. (HPCL)
Since the beta (1.353788871) is more than 1, it indicates that Hindustan Petroleum Corporation Ltd. (HPCL) is good for short-term investment.<\/span><\/p>\n
