Dividend Yield

A dividend yield is a ratio of dividends paid per share by the latest share price, expressed as a percentage. It is used to understand how much dividends a company pays per share outstanding. The formula to calculate dividend yields is:

Dividend Yield: Dividend Per Share / Current Shar Price

A high dividend yield indicates a company’s willingness to redistribute more profits to shareholders, while a low dividend yield signals the opposite.

Equity Share Capital

The total amount of money that is raised by a company through the issuance of shares is known as equity share capital. Shares issued could be classified as common or preferred shares, both of which are a part of the equity share capital.

In general, share capital is known to be the money raised by issuing shares. Companies have the option of raising more equity share capital by issuing additional shares through a Follow on Public Offer (FPO) or other financing methods.

European Option

A European Option allows a trader to exercise the contract only on the day of expiry. For example, let’s say an options trader bought a European Call Option that expires on 01-01-2023.

The options trader can only exercise the call option, that is, buy the underlying assets on the day of expiry which is 01-01-2023. In India, traders can only engage in European options.

Anaume Pattern

An Anaume Pattern can be seen when a gap is filled after a change in the direction of a security or market’s price.

Anaume Patterns are gap-filling patterns that can signal the reversal of a bearish trend, which is nothing but a potential onset of a bullish trend, when used in conjunction with other patterns.

Anaume Patterns are also known as exception exhaustion patterns.

Face Value

The term face value refers to the actual price of a stock that’s obtained by dividing a company’s net value by its total shares outstanding. In India, the face value of shares can range from Rs. 1 to Rs. 100.

However, the market value of the share may vary. At times, the difference can be drastic. For example, the face value of an MRF share is Rs. 10 but the market value (LTP) of the same share is Rs. 86,313.45.

Face value is also known as nominal value or par value. The latter is used frequently in the case of bonds.

The face value of a bond is the amount that an investor receives from the issuer on maturity. Similar to stocks, bonds and other fixed income instruments may have a different face value and market value.

Bureau Of Indian Standards

Bureau Of Indian Standards (BIS) is responsible for standardizing and certifying goods and services from third parties so that the end consumer knows that the products are safe and reliable.

BIS was established in 1986 and was rebranded from the Indian Standards Institution (ISI) to BIS during the year to adapt to the changing product landscape of India.
