The era 90‘s saw very significant policy changes introduced in the sphere of financial sector, foreign trade, public sector and social sector. The year 1991 witnessed the process of liberalization and globalization that hit the Indian economy and pushed our country to break open the ―Inward Looking‖ policy when the emphasis was accorded to protectionism and import substitution. Since 1991, India has proved to be a key player in the world. Ours country interaction has increased with many economies ties, political harmony, tourism trade and services more significantly in the area of investment. The present study was conducted by me with the aim to understand the impact of FDI and FII on Indian Stock Market (BSE and Nifty) during the recession period. It was found from the study that FDI had a significant influence on the Indian Stock market during recession while FII negatively influenced the Indian Stock Market.

This study examines the stock market reaction to stock splits between 2002 and 2013 of 6 sectors of BSE-Auto, Bankex, Consumer Durables, FMCG, Health Care and IT sectors to find out if the Indian stock market is semi-strong efficient or not. The methodology used is event study under the market model. Samples of 14 stock splits are considered spread across 6 sectors. The results indicate that there are significant positive abnormal returns prior to split announcements. On the day of split announcement, 1 sector reacts positively (Health Care-3.3%) and the 5 react negatively (Auto -1%, Bankex -0.9%, CD -0.3%, FMCG -1%, and IT-1%). The results indicate that the null hypothesis, H<sub>0</sub>1, that there is no significant AAR around the stock split announcement dates is accepted.
