regulate the activities of the merchant banks, to control the
operations of mutual funds, to work as a promoter of the stock
exchange activities and to act as a regulatory authority of new issue
activities of companies. The SEBI was set up with the fundamental
objective, "to protect the interest of investors in securities
market and for matters connected therewith or incidental
thereto."
The main functions of SEBI are:-

market.

intermediaries about safety of market.

Three creditors rating agencies viz. The Credit Rating
Information Services of India Limited (CRISIL - 1988), the
Investment Information and Credit Rating Agency of India
Limited (ICRA - 1991) and Credit Analysis and Research
Limited (CARE) were set up in order to assess the financial
health of different financial institutions and agencies related to
the stock market activities. It is a guide for the investors also in
evaluating the risk of their investments.

Indian capital market to raise capital for their expansions.

physical transaction with more paper work is reduced. Now
paperless transactions are increasing at a rapid rate. It
saves money, time and energy of investors. Thus it has made
investing safer and hassle free encouraging more people to join
the capital market.

capital market to grow. Public sector banks, foreign banks,
financial institutions and joint mutual funds between the Indian

diversification in terms of schemes, maturity, etc. has taken place
in mutual funds in India. It has given a wide choice for the
common investors to enter the capital market.

up of the NSE , stock exchanges have spread across the country.
Recently a new Inter-connected Stock Exchange of India has
joined the existing stock exchanges.

malpractices in the capital market.
9) Growth of Derivative Transactions :
Since June 2000, the NSE has introduced the derivatives trading
in the equities. In November 2001 it also introduced the future
and options transactions. These innovative products have given
variety for the investment leading to the expansion of the capital
market.
10) Insurance Sector Reforms :
Indian insurance sector has also witnessed massive reforms in
last few years. The Insurance Regulatory and Development
Authority (IRDA) was set up in 2000. It paved the entry of the
private insurance firms in India. As many insurance companies
invest their money in the capital market, it has expanded.

22. 11) Commodity Trading :
Along with the trading of ordinary securities, the trading in
commodities is also recently encouraged. The Multi Commodity
Exchange (MCX) is set up. The volume of such transactions is
growing at a splendid rate.
Apart from these reforms the setting up of Clearing Corporation of
India Limited (CCIL), Venture Funds, etc., have resulted into the
tremendous growth of Indian capital market.
