Analysis On Risk and Return of Selected Equity on Banking and FMCG Sectors
Subject area: Management and Commerce · Area of research: Finance
Abstract
This research investigates the relationship between risk and return for selected equities in the Indian banking and fast-moving consumer goods (FMCG) sectors from January 2022 to December 2024. Using secondary data from company reports, market indices, and stock prices, the study evaluates performance metrics such as beta, alpha, standard deviation, and correlation to assess volatility and expected returns. The findings reveal varying risk-return dynamics across sectors. While FMCG stocks like HUL and Britannia provide stable and defensive returns, banking stocks such as SBI and ICICI offer higher growth potential with increased volatility. The study highlights the significance of portfolio diversification and provides actionable insights for investors based on risk tolerance and investment objectives.
