Data Collection<\/p>\n
Data for NIFTY 50 and HCL Technologies Ltd was collected from NSE India for the selected period. Weekly closing prices were considered, and weekly returns were calculated.<\/p>\n
\uf0b7 Weekly return of NIFTY 50 was taken as X<\/p>\n
\uf0b7 Weekly return of HCL Technologies Ltd was taken as Y<\/p>\n
\uf0b7 Y was regressed on X<\/p>\n
Data Analysis<\/p>\n
Equation \u2013 HCL Technologies Ltd = 0.00562 + 1.44107 NIFTY 50<\/p>\n
The above equation shows the relationship between the NIFTY 50 (X) and HCL Technologies Ltd share price (Y). The positive sign indicates a direct relationship, which means that when the share price of NIFTY 50 rises, the share price of HCL Technologies Ltd also tends to rise, and vice versa. If the share price of NIFTY 50 increases by 1 unit, then the share price of HCL Technologies Ltd increases by 1.44107 units.<\/p>\n
The p-value for the share price of NIFTY 50 is 4.14E-06, which is less than 0.01, indicating that there is a statistically significant relationship between the weekly returns of NIFTY 50 (X) and HCL Technologies Ltd (Y) for the period analysed. The number of observations is 49, and the R\u00b2 value is 0.36596, which means that 36.596% of the variation in the share price of HCL Technologies Ltd is explained by movements in the NIFTY 50. The remaining 63.404% variation is due to factors not included in the model.<\/p>\n
The F value is 27.127, and the significance value of 4.14E-06 indicates that the model is highly significant at the 1% level.<\/p>\n
\u00a0<\/p>\n
Conclusion<\/p>\n
HCL Technologies Ltd.\u2019s beta value of 1.44107 indicates that it is greater than 1 and is a positive value, which means that HCL Technologies Ltd moves in the same direction as the NIFTY 50 with higher volatility. This suggests that HCL Technologies Ltd is more sensitive to market movements compared to the overall market.<\/p>\n
