TASK01 :- Difference between Total Market Capitalization and Free Float
Market Capitalization.

1. MARKET CAPITALIZATION :-

i. Market capitalization refers to how much a company is worth as determined by the

stock market. It is defined as the total market value of all outstanding shares. It is
calculated by multiplying the number of outstanding shares by the current market
value of one share.
ii. Market cap is often used to determine a company's size, then evaluate the company's
financial performance to other companies of various sizes. In investing, companies
with larger market capitalization are often safer investments as they represent more
established companies with generally longer history in business.
iii. For example, suppose that ABC Company has 20,000 outstanding shares in the
market and each share of ABC Company is priced at Rs 20. Then, the market
capitalisation of ABC Company will be calculated as follows: Outstanding shares x
price per share 20,000 x 20 = Rs 4,00,000 Therefore, the market capitalisation of
ABC Company is Rs 4,00,000.
iv. Companies are typically divided according to market capitalization: large-cap (Rs
20000 crore or more), mid-cap (Rs 5000 crore to Rs 20000 crore), and small-cap
(Less then Rs 5000 crore).

2. Free Float Market Capitalization :-

i. In free float market capitalisation, the value of the company is calculated by excluding
shares held by the promoters. These excluded shares are the free float shares.
ii. Free float market capital would exclude the following:
a) Shares that are locked in.
b) Shares that are held by the promoters.
c) Shares that have been acquired through Foreign Direct Investment route.
d) Shares that are held by the government.
iii. For example if a company has issued 10 lakh shares of face value Rs 10, but of these,
four lakh shares is owned by the promoter, then the free float market capitalisation is
Rs 60 lakh.
iv. Free float market cap is widely used by global indices as it measures the total value of
shares being actively traded in the market.

3
 3. Difference between Total Market Capitalization and Free Float Market
Capitalization:-

i. Free float market capitalisation is lower than total market capitalisation as shares held
by promoters or those that are locked in are excluded.
ii. While, earlier, full market cap was often used, these days free float is being used.
When a company needs to takeover a company and delist, it might look at full market
cap. It all depends on the need and the purpose of the data that we need.
iii. For example, ACC has a free float market cap of Rs 12,683 crores, while the full
market cap is around Rs 25,000 crores. So, it is safe to say that the amount of shares
that are readily available for trading is almost half that of the full outstanding shares.

Task 02 :- What is Impact Cost ?

i. Impact cost is the cost that a buyer or seller of stocks incurs while executing a
transaction due to the prevailing liquidity condition on the counter.
ii. it represents the cost of executing a transaction of a given security, with a specific
predefined order size, at any given point in time.
iii. Impact cost is a measure of the stock or security liquidity.
iv. Impact cost occurs when an investor is executing a transaction because of the
prevalent liquidity conditions.
v. It is a realistic measure of liquidity of the stock or security and is deemed to be closer
to the true cost of execution faced by a trader in comparison to the bid-ask spread.
vi. Ideal Price = (Best Buy Price + Best Sell Price)/2
vii. Impact Cost = (Actual Buy Price – Ideal Price) * 100/ Ideal cost

Road ahead for Telecom Industry in India :-

Revenue from the telecom equipment sector is expected to grow to US$ 26.38 billion by
2020. The number of internet subscribers in the country is expected to double by 2021 to 829
million and overall IP traffic is expected to grow four-fold at a CAGR of 30% by 2021.

According to a Zenith Media survey, India is expected to become the fastest-growing telecom
advertisement market, with an annual growth rate of 11% between 2020 and 2023.

The Indian Government is planning to develop 100 smart city projects, and IoT will play a
vital role in developing these cities. The National Digital Communications Policy 2018
envisaged attracting investment worth US$ 100 billion in the telecommunications sector by
2022. App downloads in India is expected to increase to 18.11 billion in 2018F and 37.21

Covid 19 Impact on Telecom Sector in India :-

A. Implementation of exemptions for the telecom industry :- Although the MHA had clarified
that telecommunications, IT and ITeS were exempted from the lockdown, there were
instances of local authorities asking personnel of telecom service providers at NOCs (network
operation centres) and call centres to shut down operations. In response, the Department of
Telecommunications (DoT) had written to chief secretaries of states on March 21, urging
them to allow movement of field staff of telecom companies.

It is therefore essential that appropriate instructions are received at the field level so that the
services can continue without interruption. The DoT had also written to chief secretaries of
all states on March 24, requesting them to designate a nodal officer who can be contacted by
service providers and telecom licensees in the event of any difficulty.

This is critical given that on-ground staff need continued access to towers for maintenance, to
identify potential risks, and refuelling. This move may help mitigate some of the issues seen
at the local level, in ensuring that there are no obstructions in the working of the telecom
sector.

B. Rising demand and current infrastructure

While demand for services continues to spike, given India’s dependence on wireless traffic,
there is increased pressure on cellular infrastructure.

Industry analysts have stated that as far as telecommunication networks are concerned, fears
of network choking are unfounded since there is sufficient additional capacity. However, the
switch in network usage to residential networks as opposed to enterprise networks may
present another set of challenges on managing network load. This trend may result in deeper
broadband penetration for residential use. In order to meet demand, going forward, the COAI
has written, vide letter dated March 20, 2020, to the Government to ease norms and expedite
approvals for providing services, setting up towers and to instruct state-owned firms (MTNL
and BSNL) to not terminate any interconnection points.

C. Impact of the lockdown restrictions

Admittedly, while there is increasing demand for telecom services, the telecom sector is
dependent on several other industries, which have been adversely affected by the lockdown.

1. Impact on Manufacturing of hardware and other systems

According to reports, handset and network equipment manufacturers will be impacted due to
global disruption in supply chains, which will lead to increased costs and lack of availability.

According to industry body Indian Cellular and Electronics Association (ICEA),

manufacturers may incur losses to the tune of nearly INR 15,000 crore due to suspension of
production. Market analysts have recommended easing taxes and levies and relaxing costs on
financial aid to ease the burden on the manufacturing sector, which will have a domino effect
on the telecom industry.

32
2. Addition of new subscribers

Given the movement restrictions during this lockdown, there has been a sharp dip in the
number of customers purchasing new sim cards (including for migration to 4G networks).

COAI has indicated that during a regular month, the average net addition is 3 million
subscribers, but due to COVID-19, the number in March may be below 1 million. We are
likely to see impact on revenues only in the first quarter of FY 2020-21. COAI has stated that
it takes around 30-45 days for new subscriptions to impact revenue and therefore the impact
of a dip in new subscriptions will be seen only around April end or early May.

Additionally, the lockdown is also likely to delay 5G spectrum auctions and its consequent
rollout as network operators are currently focused on meeting increased demand without a
dip in service quality. Due to restrictions on manufacturing and movement of goods, this will
also limit the ability to roll out 5G enabled handsets.

3. Impact on tariffs

Even after the last round of tariff hikes late last year, India continues to have the lowest tariff
rates in the world.

The lower tariffs, as a result of increased competition due to new entrants in the market, led
to a situation where the revenues of the incumbent Telcos were considered almost
unsustainable for their balance sheets.

Reports indicate that a second round of tariff hikes had been planned in the April-June
quarter of 2020, however, given

(i) the impact of COVID-19 on spending ability (especially of low income subscribers),

(ii) the benefits required to be extended by Telcos

(iii) the dip in subscriptions, the planned tariff hikes may be delayed to the second half of
2020.

4. Subscriber Retention

Market share is one of the most important performance metric held closest to the chest by
Telcos. Given the challenges of increasing market share in such times, focus would
automatically move towards preserving the existing subscriber base. This is most challenging
with respect to low ARPU (Average Revenue Per User) subscribers. During this lockdown
period, there are reports that Telcos have granted dispensations to their subscribers – like
extended validity, additional talk time benefits, etc., as attractions to continue service. TRAI,
raising concerns around price discrimination, has, on April 7, 2020, written to Telcos,
alleging that they were selectively increasing validity of prepaid users during the lockdown.
However, the Telcos have written back to the regulator, contending that they have provided
benefits worth at least INR 600 crores to subscribers who are at the bottom of the pyramid to
ensure connectivity during this time. These initiatives would be towards reducing drop-outs
for low ARPU subscribers, who otherwise would not necessarily have be in a position to
make timely recharges, either due to monetary reasons or access to online recharging
facilities. This initiative also helps towards ensuring connectivity of larger masses and for
widespread information dissemination, which is critical at this point. This is consistent with

33
the representation by the Telcos to TRAI, where they have stated that if these benefits were
offered to an extended pool, this would amount to “an unjustified subsidy” to the customers
who can afford these services and cause a steep loss to the industry.

Subsequently, TRAI has undertaken a detailed review and has decided not to issue any
further directives at present.
