It plays a significant role in the digital travel industry and tourism sector. Being listed on the NSE, its stock performance reflects both company growth and overall market trends.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3 style=\"margin: 14.05pt 0cm 14.05pt 0cm\"><b><span lang=\"EN-US\" style=\"color: black\">Objective:<\/span><\/b><\/h3>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"margin: 12.0pt 0cm 12.0pt 0cm\"><span lang=\"EN-US\" style=\"color: black\">Calculation of Beta and observe its Significance<\/span><\/p>\n<h3 style=\"margin: 14.05pt 0cm 14.05pt 0cm\"><b><span lang=\"EN-US\" style=\"color: black\">Literature Review:<\/span><\/b><\/h3>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"margin: 12.0pt 0cm 12.0pt 0cm\"><span lang=\"EN-US\" style=\"color: black\">According to Stephen A. Ross, stock returns are influenced by multiple economic factors and systematic risk plays a key role in determining expected returns. Regression analysis helps in identifying how strongly a stock reacts to market movements.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"margin: 12.0pt 0cm 12.0pt 0cm\"><span lang=\"EN-US\" style=\"color: black\">As stated by John Lintner, beta is an important measure of risk that reflects the sensitivity of a stock\u2019s returns to changes in the overall market. It is widely used by investors to assess risk and make investment decisions.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3 style=\"margin: 14.05pt 0cm 14.05pt 0cm\"><b><span lang=\"EN-US\" style=\"color: black\">Data Collection:<\/span><\/b><\/h3>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"margin: 12.0pt 0cm 12.0pt 0cm\"><span lang=\"EN-US\" style=\"color: black\">Data for NIFTY 50 and my company \u201cYatra Online Limited\u201d was downloaded from NSE India.com for the period 1-1-2025 to 31-12-2025 Friday closing prices for NIFTY 50 and my company was segregated weekly and returns were calculated. Weekly returns of NIFTY 50 were taken as X and weekly returns of the company were taken as Y. Y was taken as regress.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3 style=\"margin: 14.05pt 0cm 14.05pt 0cm\"><b><span lang=\"EN-US\" style=\"color: black\">Data Analysis:<\/span><\/b><\/h3>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"margin: 12.0pt 0cm 12.0pt 0cm\"><span lang=\"EN-US\" style=\"color: black\">Regression Equation:<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"margin: 12.0pt 0cm 12.0pt 0cm\"><span lang=\"EN-US\" style=\"color: black\">N = 48, F = 60.45, p = 0.00, x = 1.10, R\u00b2 = 0.57,<\/span><span lang=\"EN-US\"><br \/><\/span><span lang=\"EN-US\" style=\"color: black\"><span>\u00a0<\/span><b>Y = 0.0015 + 1.10X<\/b><\/span><\/p>\n<h3 style=\"margin: 14.05pt 0cm 14.05pt 0cm\"><b><span lang=\"EN-US\" style=\"color: black\">Interpretation:<\/span><\/b><\/h3>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"margin: 12.0pt 0cm 12.0pt 0cm\"><span lang=\"EN-US\" style=\"color: black\">The above equation shows the relationship between market return and company return. The positive sign of beta indicates that there is a direct relationship between NIFTY and the stock of Yatra Online Limited, which means if market rises the company return also rises and vice versa.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"margin: 12.0pt 0cm 12.0pt 0cm\"><span lang=\"EN-US\" style=\"color: black\">If NIFTY return increases by 1 unit, the return of the company will increase by 1.10 units. Number of observations are 48. The value of \u03b2 (Beta) is 1.10.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"margin: 12.0pt 0cm 12.0pt 0cm\"><span lang=\"EN-US\" style=\"color: black\">The p-value is less than 0.05 which means beta is statistically significant at 5% level. R\u00b2 is approximately 0.57 which means 57% of variation in company return is explained by market return and 43% is due to other factors not included in the model.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"margin: 12.0pt 0cm 12.0pt 0cm\"><span lang=\"EN-US\" style=\"color: black\">Thus, the model is significant and there is a strong positive relationship between NIFTY and the company\u2019s returns.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3 style=\"margin: 14.05pt 0cm 14.05pt 0cm\"><b><span lang=\"EN-US\" style=\"color: black\">Conclusion:<\/span><\/b><\/h3>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"margin: 12.0pt 0cm 12.0pt 0cm\"><span lang=\"EN-US\" style=\"color: black\">Since beta is greater than 1, it means the stock is more volatile than the market and is suitable for short-term investors when the market is rising.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3 style=\"margin: 14.05pt 0cm 14.05pt 0cm\"><b><span lang=\"EN-US\" style=\"color: black\">References:<\/span><\/b><\/h3>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"margin: 12.0pt 0cm 12.0pt 0cm\"><span lang=\"EN-US\" style=\"color: black\">Ross, S.
