Sharpe, 1964) introduced the Capital Asset Pricing Model (CAPM), which highlights the role of Beta in determining expected returns of a stock. The model shows that stocks like Asian Paints are affected by overall market movements. Beta helps investors decide whether a stock is risky or stable compared to the market.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"padding: 0px;margin: 30px auto;line-height: 1.7;max-width: 610px;color: #000000;font-family: -apple-system, BlinkMacSystemFont, 'Segoe UI', Roboto, Oxygen-Sans, Ubuntu, Cantarell, 'Helvetica Neue', sans-serif;font-size: 20px;background-color: #98e2c7\"><span style=\"max-width: none;font-size: 12pt;line-height: 17.12px\">According to (John Lintner, 1965) Beta plays a key role in explaining the relationship between individual stocks and the overall market. His research supports that a company\u2019s returns are directly influenced by market movements such as NIFTY 50. This helps investors measure systematic risk and make informed investment decisions.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"padding: 0px;margin: 30px auto;line-height: 1.7;max-width: 610px;color: #000000;font-family: -apple-system, BlinkMacSystemFont, 'Segoe UI', Roboto, Oxygen-Sans, Ubuntu, Cantarell, 'Helvetica Neue', sans-serif;font-size: 20px;background-color: #98e2c7\"><span style=\"max-width: none;font-size: 12pt;line-height: 17.12px\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"padding: 0px;margin: 30px auto;line-height: 1.7;max-width: 610px;color: #000000;font-family: -apple-system, BlinkMacSystemFont, 'Segoe UI', Roboto, Oxygen-Sans, Ubuntu, Cantarell, 'Helvetica Neue', sans-serif;font-size: 20px;background-color: #98e2c7\"><span style=\"font-weight: bold;max-width: none\"><span style=\"max-width: none;font-size: 12pt;line-height: 17.12px\">Data collection<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"padding: 0px;margin: 30px auto;line-height: 1.7;max-width: 610px;color: #000000;font-family: -apple-system, BlinkMacSystemFont, 'Segoe UI', Roboto, Oxygen-Sans, Ubuntu, Cantarell, 'Helvetica Neue', sans-serif;font-size: 20px;background-color: #98e2c7\"><span style=\"max-width: none;font-size: 12pt;line-height: 17.12px\">Data for NIFTY 50 and Asian Paints was downloaded from NSE India\u2019s website\u00a0<span style=\"font-weight: bold;max-width: none\">(https:\/\/www.nseindia.com\/)<\/span>\u00a0for the period of 1\/1\/2025 to 31\/12\/2025.

Positive beta means there is a direct relationship between the two variables, which implies that if the NIFTY 50 index rises, Asian Paints stock also rises, and vice versa. If NIFTY 50 increases by 1 unit, the stock price of Asian Paints increases by 0.7446 units. The number of observations is 48. The T-statistic for beta is 3.1689. The P-value is 0.0027, which is less than 0.05, indicating that beta is statistically significant at the 5% level. The R-squared value is 0.179, which means 17.9% of the variation in stock returns is explained by the model, while the remaining 82.1% is due to other factors not included in the model. The F-statistic is 10.042 and the Significance F is 0.0027, which is less than 0.05, indicating that the overall model is statistically significant at the 5% level.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"padding: 0px;margin: 30px auto;line-height: 1.7;max-width: 610px;color: #000000;font-family: -apple-system, BlinkMacSystemFont, 'Segoe UI', Roboto, Oxygen-Sans, Ubuntu, Cantarell, 'Helvetica Neue', sans-serif;font-size: 20px;background-color: #98e2c7\"><span style=\"max-width: none;font-size: 12pt;line-height: 17.12px\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"padding: 0px;margin: 30px auto;line-height: 1.7;max-width: 610px;color: #000000;font-family: -apple-system, BlinkMacSystemFont, 'Segoe UI', Roboto, Oxygen-Sans, Ubuntu, Cantarell, 'Helvetica Neue', sans-serif;font-size: 20px;background-color: #98e2c7\"><span style=\"font-weight: bold;max-width: none\"><span style=\"max-width: none;font-size: 12pt;line-height: 17.12px\">Conclusion<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"padding: 0px;margin: 30px auto;line-height: 1.7;max-width: 610px;color: #000000;font-family: -apple-system, BlinkMacSystemFont, 'Segoe UI', Roboto, Oxygen-Sans, Ubuntu, Cantarell, 'Helvetica Neue', sans-serif;font-size: 20px;background-color: #98e2c7\"><span style=\"max-width: none;font-size: 12pt;line-height: 17.12px\">Beta is less than 1 (0.744), invest in this company for long term.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"padding: 0px;margin: 30px auto;line-height: 1.7;max-width: 610px;color: #000000;font-family: -apple-system, BlinkMacSystemFont, 'Segoe UI', Roboto, Oxygen-Sans, Ubuntu, Cantarell, 'Helvetica Neue', sans-serif;font-size: 20px;background-color: #98e2c7\"><span style=\"max-width: none;font-size: 12pt;line-height: 17.12px\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"padding: 0px;margin: 30px auto;line-height: 1.7;max-width: 610px;color: #000000;font-family: -apple-system, BlinkMacSystemFont, 'Segoe UI', Roboto, Oxygen-Sans, Ubuntu, Cantarell, 'Helvetica Neue', sans-serif;font-size: 20px;background-color: #98e2c7\"><span style=\"font-weight: bold;max-width: none\"><span style=\"max-width: none;font-size: 12pt;line-height: 17.12px\">References<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"padding: 0px;margin: 30px auto;line-height: 1.7;max-width: 610px;color: #000000;font-family: -apple-system, BlinkMacSystemFont, 'Segoe UI', Roboto, Oxygen-Sans, Ubuntu, Cantarell, 'Helvetica Neue', sans-serif;font-size: 20px;background-color: #98e2c7\"><span style=\"max-width: none;font-size: 12pt;line-height: 17.12px\">Sharpe, W.
