Literature Review :<\/span><\/u><\/b><\/p>\n

1. <\/span>A \u2018Desi\u2019 Multinational \u2013 A Case Study of Hindustan Unilever Limited.

2. A Study on Financial Performance of Hindustan Unilever Limited<\/span>. <\/span>This study analyzes HUL\u2019s financial performance over a five-year period (2017-2018 to 2021-2022).

Data Collection\u00a0<\/span><\/u><\/b>:<\/span><\/u><\/b><\/p>\n

Data for\u00a0<\/span>Hindustan Unilever Limited<\/span>\u00a0and the Nifty 50 were downloaded from 1 January 2024 to 31 December 2024. The data was manipulated to calculate the Friday closing prices for both indices. The Nifty 50 was represented as X, and Hindustan Unilever Limited as Y. A linear regression analysis was performed, with Y regressed on X<\/span>.<\/span><\/p>\n

Data Analysis :<\/span><\/u><\/b><\/p>\n\n\n\n
\n

Equation :\u00a0<\/span><\/b>Hindustan Unilever Limited<\/span><\/b>\u00a0=\u00a0<\/span><\/b>-0.33905964<\/span>+\u00a0<\/span><\/b>0.681453738 Nifty 50<\/span><\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n

\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Interpretation :<\/span><\/u><\/b><\/p>\n

The regression equation describes the relationship between the Nifty 50 (X) and the HUL share price (Y). This indicates that the HUL share price is the dependent variable, while the Nifty 50 is the independent variable. The coefficient of 0.6815 suggests that for every 1% increase in the Nifty 50\u2019s weekly return, HUL\u2019s weekly share price return is expected to increase by approximately 0.6815%. With 47 observations, the model\u2019s R-squared value is 0.142, implying that approximately 14.2% of the variation in HUL\u2019s weekly share price returns can be explained by changes in the Nifty 50\u2019s weekly returns, while the remaining 85.8% is attributed to other factors not included in the model. The p-value for the slope is 0.00908, which is lower than the conventional threshold of 0.05, indicating that the relationship between the Nifty 50\u2019s weekly returns and HUL\u2019s weekly share price returns is statistically significant at the 5% level. Consequently, this model provides evidence of a significant positive linear relationship between the Nifty 50\u2019s weekly returns and HUL\u2019s weekly share price returns, suggesting that market movements have a measurable direct impact on the company\u2019s share price returns.
<\/span>
<\/span>Conclusion :<\/span><\/u><\/b><\/p>\n

Since the beta (1.1981)\u00a0 is more than 1, it indicates that Hindustan Uniliver Limited is good for short-term investment.<\/span><\/p>\n
