Conclusion for Beta calculation:- Beta () measures the sensitivity of securities return t market
changes. The beta of an investment is a measure of the risk arising from exposure to
general market movements. The market portfolio of all investable assets has a beta of exactly 1.
A beta below 1 can indicate either an investment with lower volatility than the market. A beta
above one generally means that the asset both is volatile and tends to move up and down with the
market. Beta is important because it measures the risk of an investment that cannot
be diversified away. We have stock of three companies Hero motocorp ltd, godrej consumer
products ltd , HCL Technologies ltd whose beta is 0.658, 3.5072, 3.47 respectively. Hero
motocorp has lowest beta as compared to other companies, which means it has less risk as
compared to others. However, securitites return of these three companies is less volatile than
market changes. The security of both companies have highest beta ,which means it is more risky
than others.
