Impact of Crude Oil Prices on Sensex
Introduction
Oil is the single most important commodity that holds the position of a key factor in each
and every economy of the world. The worlds richest nations are at their current positions
just because of the oil factor. The importance of oil has reached such a level at which there
is no country in the world, which doesnt need oil and its by-products, and if somehow it
doesnt have much reserves of oil to meet their domestic demand, these nations are ready to
import the product at any cost. Many nations have a huge share of their earnings
constituted by oil exports only. Every industry requires oil to function properly either
directly or indirectly as both crude oil and its by-products serve as their inputs. The extent
of the commoditys importance was shown to the world when the worlds most strong
economies were shaken up as the oil prices shot up in 1973 and 1979 when the gulf
countries refused to supply oil to the countries that were the supporters of Israel in its war
with Egypt and Syria. Crude oil alone bears 60% share to meet the global energy needs in
the current scenario. The reason for this high share in the primary energy consumption in
the world is due to the advantages that oil has over the other constituents of primary energy
such as diverse application, comparatively lesser harm to the environment, easy handling,
lower capital costs and above all higher efficiency.
Crude oil reserves on earth are estimated to be more than 1 trillion barrels that are mostly
found in the Middle East, Eastern Europe, Africa and Central America, Middle East being
the top reserve holder. It is a clear fact that oil is a limited resource and would finish off in
a maximum of 80 years if the current rate of consumption continues. Of these 1 trillion
barrels, the world produces around 75 million barrels per day. The largest crude oil
producing country is Saudi Arabia followed by Russia and United States of America. The
refining capacity of oil in the world as in 2002 was 4166 million tons. The consumption of
crude oil in the world has been rising with the change in time and the technologicalimprovements that are accompanying it. Oil is consumed all over the globe, consumption
figures standing at 76 million barrels per day and United States of America consumes the
maximum level of oil in the world. The major consumer countries of crude oil along with
their consumption figures pertaining to the year 2006 are

Regarding the world trade situation, one important aspect is the presence of an organization
namely OPEC that controls and regulates the exports and imports of most of the countries
of the world. OPEC stands for Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries and the
members include all the 11 major crude oil producing countries and nations that are highly
dependent on the revenues from oil and oil products. As a matter of fact, OPEC nations
have 75% of the worlds total crude oil reserves of 1 trillion barrels and control around
40% of the world oil production. OPEC member countries also dominate the world exports
of crude oil contributing to 55% of the total world exports. The major crude oil exporting
countries with their exporting figures are

1.2 The History of Crude Oil in World
The history of crude oil supply has been dominated by the time
and place of discoveries, with enormous results on the history of
the 20th century. The History of Crude Oil and Supply Oil has
also been dominated by a few individuals, companies, and
nations, with greed, superb intelligence, and unbelievable
stupidity.

Impact of Crude Oil Prices on Sensex
The modern oil era began in northwest Pennsylvania in the mid-19th century, as shallow
fields were tapped.
The early days of the oil industry were characterized by boom and bust, as new discoveries
first overwhelmed demand, then lagged behind it. Prices fell from $10 a barrel in January
1861 to 10 a barrel in December 1861, but were up to $7.25 a barrel again by September
1863, down to $2.40 in 1867. Fortunes were made and lost in boom towns and stock
speculations that rivalled any in the gold industry.
The innovation that allowed some control over the chaos was the oil pipeline. Barrels (real
barrels, made of oak) were expensive, sometimes worth more than the oil they contained.
They were expensive to transport on wagons, too. By 1866, pipelines, made of wood at
first, had been built to the major producing fields, transporting oil to railheads where tanker
cars could be filled. After that, there was only one real choice: the oil flowed to the nearest
industrial city for refining, Cleveland, Ohio.
It was the genius of John D. Rockefeller that found a way to take advantage of this
situation, which was merely a matter of simple geography. The oil fields were scattered in
rough country, owned by small-time entrepreneurs, and new discoveries were
unpredictable in location and size. They were, however, likely to occur in the same region,and they would be connected by pipelines to the existing rail network, and funneled to
Cleveland. After refining, the kerosene was marketed nation-wide.
Rockefeller reasoned that the way to control the oil industry was within the transportation
and refining section. In particular, refineries were comparatively long-term investments. At
the age of 20, Rockefeller had entered business just as the Civil War began, and made a lot
of money supplying the Army with wheat, salt, and pork.
In 1863 Cleveland was connected with the Pennsylvania oilfields by rail, and Rockefeller
and a partner opened an oil refinery in Cleveland. In 1866 he bought out his partner, and at
the age of 26 owned the largest refinery in the city. Using the size of his shipments to
negotiate low prices for railroad transport, outcompeting his rivals for price and quality,

Rockefeller and his Standard Oil Company became the largest oil company in North
America, amalgamating and controlling the refining side of the industry. By 1879 Standard
Oil controlled 90% of the refining capacity in the United States, and all the pipelines
flowing out of the Pennsylvania oilfields.
In the 1880s, Standard moved into oilfield production too. By 1890, it was producing or
buying over 80% of the oil produced in the United States, and refining and selling it.
Standard was exporting kerosene, too: half of the kerosene it produced was exported,
mainly to Europe, and kerosene was the fourth-largest American export commodity.
At the end of the century, the Standard Oil Trust controlled the oil industry of the
Americas, while Shell was a major player in much of the rest of the world.
Three major events altered this situation: in 1901 the great Spindletop gusher brought
Texas oil into the picture, eventually bringing Gulf and Texaco into the big leagues; in
1911 the US Government used anti-trust legislation to break up the Standard company; and
the World War of 1914 to 1918 brought to everyone's attention the fact that petroleum was
now vital to waging and winning wars.
The scene was set for oil to dominate much economic, political, and military thinking, and
that situation continues today.
Today, about 90% of vehicular fuel needs are met by oil. Petroleum also makes up 40% of
total energy consumption in theUnited States, but is responsible for only 2% of electricity
generation. Petroleum's worth as a portable, dense energy source powering the vast
majority of vehicles and as the base of many industrial chemicals makes it one of the
world's most importantcommodities.
The top three oil producing countries are Saudi Arabia, Russia, and the United States.
About 80% of the world's readily accessible reserves are located in the Middle East, with
62.5% coming from the Arab 5: Saudi Arabia, UAE, Iraq, Qatar and Kuwait. A large
portion of the world's total oil exists as unconventional sources, such asbitumenin Canada
and Venezuela andoil shale. While significant volumes of oil are extracted from oil sands,

particularly in Canada, logistical and technical hurdles remain, as oil extraction requires
large amounts of heat and water, making its net energy content quite low relative to
conventional crude oil. Thus, Canada's oil sands are not expected to provide more than a
few million barrels per day in the foreseeable future.
The history of crude oil dates back to the 3rd or 4th century A.D when the presence of oil
was first discovered in China. The oil that the early Chinese people found was found to
have extremely good medicinal value and was used in the salt form. To extract that oil
from under the earths crust, first oil wells of around 243 meters were dug up in that region
with the help of bamboo poles possessing metal tools at their end. The crude oil was also
used for the lighting purposes in Ancient Persia.
When the city of Baghdad was constructed in the 8th century, the streets of that city were
paved with tar that was easily available in the natural oil fields in that region. With the
time, man discovered new and diversified uses of oil and hence the discovery of new oil
fields became an important requirement. People got to know the vast amount of oil that was
hidden under the earths surface as many geographers started predicting it in that time.
All this time oil had a limited use until in 19th century; the process of distillation of
kerosene with the help of coal and rock oil was invented. Production of oil becamecommercialized and it started an era of establishment of oil refineries throughout the world.
One of the first refineries was established at Baku in Russia and it became the worlds
largest oil producing refinery. A Russian engineer F.N Semyonov built the first ever
modern oil well at the same place in 1848. Up till 1950s coal had dominance among the
primary energy constituents but crude oil took over the leadership in a short span of time
and has still maintained its reputation.
1.3 Historyof crude oil in India
India was not known to the world in the context of crude oil and its by-product production.
As late as in 1889, the presence of oil in India was discovered in Digboi in Assam. First
crude oil refinery in India was set up in Digboi in1901. Then the exploration and

production activities were limited to the North Eastern part of the country. In 1958 and
1974, two more places for crude oil production were identified namely Cambay onshore
basin and Bombay offshore basin. Initially the major international companies were given
the job to explore and produce oil in the country but after the shock in oil prices in 1973,
whole of the sector was nationalized.
Oil India (OIL) is a large state-owned oil and gas company in India under the
administrative control of the Ministry of Petroleum and Natural Gas of the Government of
India. OIL is engaged in the business of exploration, development and production of crude
oil and natural gas, transportation of crude oil and production ofliquid petroleum gas. The
story of Oil India Limited (OIL) traces and symbolizes the development and growth of the
Indian petroleum industry. From the discovery of crude oil in the far east of India atDigboi, Assam in 1889 to its present status as a fully integrated upstream petroleum
company, OIL has come far, crossing many milestones.
OIL is the pioneer in exploration and production of hydrocarbons in India, and traces its
roots back to Oil India Private Ltd., formed in 1959 with The Burmah Oil Company Ltd.
holding two-thirds ofequity and Government of India holding one-third. Oil India Private
evolved into Oil India Ltd., which was an equal partnership between Burmah Oil and
Government of India. In 1983 the company became a public sectorundertaking of theGovernment of India.
The Company presently produces over 3.2 MMTPA (million tons per annum) of crude oil,
over 5 MMSCMD of Natural Gas and over 50,000 Tones of LPG annually. Most of this
emanates from its traditionally rich oil and gas fields concentrated in the Northeastern part
of India and contribute to over 65% of total Oil&Gas produced in the region. The search
for newer avenues has seen OIL spreading out its operations in onshore / offshore Orissa
and Andaman, deserts of Rajasthan, plains of Uttar Pradesh, riverbeds of Brahmaputra and
offshore Saurashtra. In Rajasthan, OIL discovered gas in 1988, heavy oil / bitumen in 1991
and started production of gas in 1996. The company has accumulated over a hundred years
of experience in the field of oil and gas production, since the discovery of Digboi oilfield in
1889. It is possibly the only company to do so. From well completion to wellbore

servicing, installation, operation and maintenance of modern surface handling facilities, the
company has the skill and expertise to manage the entire range of operations required for
onshore oil and gas production.
The company has over 100,000 square kilometres of license areas for oil and gas
exploration. It has emerged as a consistently profitable international company with
exploration blocks as far as Libya and sub-Saharan Africa.
In recent years, OIL has stepped up E & P activities significantly including Gas
monetization in the North-East India. OIL has set up the NEF (North East Frontier) project
to intensify its exploration activities in the frontier areas in North East, which are
logistically very difficult and geologically complex. Presently, seismic surveys are being
carried out in Manbhum, Pasighat and other Trust Belt areas. The Company operates a
crude oil pipeline in the North East for transportation of crude oil produced by both OIL
and ONGCL in the region to feed Numaligarh, Guwahati, Bongaigaon and Barauni
refineries and a branch line to feed Digboi refinery.
Categories of crude oil
The various types of crude oils are classified according to their geographical originations,
sulfur level and also the density of the oils in some cases. For differentiation depending
upon the gravity of oils, the American Petroleum Institute (API) provides with a basis to
measure its density, which is called the API gravity. The crude oils are then termed as
heavy or light oil. They are also divided as per the sulfur level present in them, as
sweet or sour. But, mostly, crude oil is classified on the basis of location only as oils
from different locations have different characteristics and they are also named after the
places of origin. The main types of crude oil according to their geographic locations are

1.5 How Crude Oil is Bought and Sold?
How Crude Oil is Bought and Sold?
Crude oil is traded on the main world futures exchanges being
the NYMEX and ICE futures exchanges. There are also several
trading service providers who offer oil trading at leverage to
individuals via internet futures trading accounts.
Crude oil is bought and sold in vast quantities (oil is the most traded commodity on the
planet) by investors, companies and individuals alike.
These days investors maybe looking to broaden their portfolios by investing in
commodities, a good example is gold, however oil prices offer larger gains, or indeed
losses, as oil futures prices can swing wildly and have done so for the last few years.
1.6 Production of Crude Oil in India
India is not among the major producers of crude oil, as it doesnt have much oil reserves.
That is why it generally depends on imports of crude oil from other countries. However,
the production of oil and as a result the production of its by-products in India has increased
in the recent past due to exploration and findings of new oil reserves. India currently has an
estimated quantity of 5.4 billion barrels of oil reserves out of which it produces around 0.8
million barrels per day. At this production level, the oil reserves in India would last for
around 29 years. The major oil reserves of the country are situated at
Mumbai high (Mumbai) Upper Assam (Assam)
Cambay (Gujarat)
Krishna-Godavari basin (Andhara Pradesh)
Cauvery basin (Tamil Nadu)

The largest crude oil producing oilfield is the Mumbai high field that produces around
260000 barrels per day. Among these production centers, major share of production i.e.
2/3rd share is bagged by the offshore reserves as compared to onshore reserves. The
refining capacity of crude oil in India is over 2.1 million barrels per day. The refining
sector in India is held by both public and private sector, public sector being the dominating
one.
1.7 Indian Crude Oil Market
India is one of the non-OPEC countries much dependent on its imports to fulfill the
domestic consumption demand as it has a much lower level of production. India is a
developing country and the requirement for the oil as a primary energy constituent from the
industries in the country is at its peak. The country has much depended on coal to satisfy its
energy needs in the earlier times but the use of crude oil and gas is taking over the
dominance of coal with the change in time. Oil and gas contribute to around 45% of the
countrys total energy consumption.
India has around 5.4 billion barrels of oil reserves with it and the domestic production has
increased in the recent past to reach the 0.8 million barrels per day mark. Mumbai high is
the largest oil-producing oilfield in India with a production of 2.6 lakh barrels per day. The
refining capacity of crude oil in India is estimated at around 2.1 million barrels per day.
Regarding the consumption pattern of oil in India, it is the 6th largest consumer country in
the world having a consumption of 2.2 million barrels per day. This leaves the country with
a huge deficit in the demand-supply scenario and thus 70% of the consumption is met
through imports.
India generally imports Oman-Dubai sour grade crude, Brent dated sweet crude and Bonny
light crude. The country imports over 1.5 million barrels per day that place it at the 9th
position among the largest importers of the world. Though the Indian production has

increased in the recent times, the imports were raised by 5% making due to the raised
Indian demand of around 4.2%. The countries from which India imports crude oil are
Venezuela
Nigeria
Sudan
Iran
Kuwait
The Indian oil-refining sector has been regulated by the government historically and is still
dominated. A new private sector has emerged after the loosening of control by the
government. The major units pertaining to the oil sector in India are

1.8 Price of Crude Oil
The high demand economies of crude oil are putting undue pressure on
the available fixed resources. The major gap created between demand
and supply of crude oil is forcing the price curve of crude oil to rise in
upward direction.
The crude oil price impacts two key aspects of our economy: -
(1) The import bill
Since, we are a net importer of oil. The increasing import bill will widen
our Trade Balance, defined as Exports minus Imports, which has been
perpetually running at a deficit and possibly wipe out our current account
surplus, which is Trade Balance minus Net Invisibles, which has
turned from deficit into surplus over the last few years. Higher trade balance will adversely
impact the fiscal deficit, which in turn will impact the interest rates.Hence the stock market
is impacted.
(2)Inflation
Since petroleum products are key constituents of Wholesale and Consumer
Price Inflation Index. Higher import bill directly and indirectly impacts the
rupee, while inflation impacts interest rates, and hence evens the rupee. These
factors obviously affect our GDP growth rates. All these factors individually andcollectively could have a negative Impact on the stock market.

Impact of Crude Oil Prices on Sensex
The OPEC nations are the major producer of world's crude oil. Therefore, every policy
made by such countries related to the crude oil prices has their influence on crude oil
prices. Any decision taken by OPEC nations for increasing or decreasing production of
crude oil impacts the price level of crude oil in international commodity markets.
Natural Causes:
In prevent years, global community have witnessed many events which in turns have
volatility effects on the price level of crude oil. Like hurricane Katrina and other type of
tropical cyclone have hit the major portion of globe, which as a result driven the crude oil
prices to reach at its peak.
Inventory:
In throughout the world, oil producers and consumers get stock their crude oil for theirfuture requirements. This gives rise to speculation on price expectations and sale chances in
case any unexpected thing cracks during supply and demand equations. Any upward or
downward movement in inventory level shoots up volatility in price index of crude oil,
which generates lot of changing movement in sensex.
Demand & Supply:
With a sharp rise in economic demand requirement of crude oil is increasing to manifold in
context to the limited supply.
1.10 'Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries'
The 'Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries' (OPEC, pronounced / o p k/
OH-pek) is an intergovernmental organization of twelve developing countries made up of
Algeria, Angola, Ecuador, Iran, Iraq, Kuwait, Libya, Nigeria, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, the
United Arab Emirates, and Venezuela. OPEC has maintained its headquarters in Vienna
since 1965, and hosts regular meetings among the oil ministers of its Member Countries.
Indonesia withdrew in 2008 after it became a net importer of oil, but stated it would likely
return if it became a net exporter again.

According to its statutes, one of the principal goals is the determination of the best means
for safeguarding the organization's interests, individually and collectively. It also pursues
ways and means of ensuring the stabilization of prices in international oil markets with a
view to eliminating harmful and unnecessary fluctuations; giving due regard at all times to
the interests of the producing nations and to the necessity of securing a steady income to
the producing countries; an efficient and regular supply ofpetroleum to consuming nations,
and a fair return on their capital to those investing in the petroleum industry.
OPEC's influence on the market has been widely criticized, since it became effective in
determining production and prices. Arab members of OPEC alarmed the developed world
when they used the oil weapon during the Yom Kippur War by implementing oil
embargoes and initiating the 1973 oil crisis. Although largely political explanations for thetiming and extent of the OPEC price increases are also valid, from OPECs point of view,
these changes were triggered largely by previous unilateral changes in the world financial
system and the ensuing period of high inflation in both the developed and developing
world. This explanation encompasses OPEC actions both before and after the outbreak of
hostilities in October 1973, and concludes that OPEC countries were only 'staying even'
by dramatically raising the dollar price of oil.
OPEC's ability to control the price of oil has diminished somewhat since then, due to thesubsequent discovery and development of large oil reserves in Alaska, the North Sea,
Canada, the Gulf of Mexico, the opening up of Russia, and market modernization. As of
November 2010, OPEC members collectively hold 79% of world crude oil reserves and
44% of the worlds crude oil production, affording them considerable control over the
global market. The next largest group of producers, members of the OECD and the Post-
Soviet states produced only 23.8% and 14.8%, respectively, of the world's total oil
production. As early as 2003, concerns that OPEC members had little excess pumping
capacity sparked speculation that their influence on crude oil prices would begin to slip.

1.11 World Crude Oil Reserves
World crude oil reserves, a finite, non-renewable resource,
one that has powered phenomenal economic and population
growth over the last century and a half.
World Crude Oil Reserves, Running Low?
Once we have used up about half of the original reserves, oil
production becomes ever more likely stop growing and
begin a terminal decline.
Oil companies have, naturally enough, extracted the easier to reach , cheap crude oil first.
The oil pumped first was on land, near the surface, under pressure, light and 'sweet'
(meaning low sulfur content) and therefore easy to refine.
The remaining oil is more likely to be off-shore, far from markets, in smaller fields and of
lesser quality. It therefore takes ever more money and energy to extract, refine and
transport.
Under these conditions, the rate of production inevitably drops. Furthermore, all oil fields
eventually reach a point where they become economically, and energetically, no longerviable. If it takes the energy of a barrel of oil to extract a barrel of oil, then further
extraction is pointless, no matter what the price of oil.

Whether or not we've passed the peak of crude oil reserves, a more significant question
may be: What will be the future rate of decline of oil production?
Some form of co-ordinated adaptation might be possible if the annual drop in available oil
was no more severe than 1-2% a year. Whereas 10% or more would soon implode the
global economy. Most models project decline rates of 2-4%.
1.12 Global Crude Oil Discoveries
What were the main crude oil and gas discoveries for the year
ending 2008?
Global Crude Oil Discoveries for 2008
The year 2008 was marked by record crude oil prices and the
US credit crisis turning into a global financial crisis leading to
a slowdown in the global economic growth.
The price of crude oil as highly volatile in 2008 rising to $147 by mid 2008 and crashing
down to less than $ 40 by the end of the year. However, 2008 was also a year of significant
oil and gas discoveries.
Some of the discoveries were made in more established regions and basins, while some
discoveries also highlighted the potential regions or basins, which can be taken up for
future exploration activities.
Seven of the ten largest oil and-gas discoveries worldwide in 2008 occurred in Latin
America, reaffirming the region's promising potential for hydrocarbon exploration. But
despite its considerable oil and gas deposits, Latin America still faces some of the samechallenges that have repelled investors before.
This year's discoveries - five in Brazil, one in Peru and one in Bolivia - and other major
finds in recent years, are bringing about a rebirth for the region in the eyes of international
oil companies that had curbed investment due to political instability and aging fields.

1.13 Crude Oil and Global Warming
Global warming means that most global countries should no
longer burn oil, fuel or gasoline in such vast quantities as
current levels seem to be having a warming effect.
Crude Oil and Global Warming, Is it all Crude's Fault?
Oil is a major player when looking at burning fossil fuels
and global warming, however coal is still widely burned at
massive levels and is still increasing, hence not all crude's
fault.
Crude oil found in the earth is a part of the natural carbon cycle and its removal and
redeposition has been taking place on the planet for hundreds of millions of years since life
forms initially became productive enough to leave deposits of organic material behind in
sedimentary rocks.
Will we be looking at an even lower demand growth rate in the future? Only time will tell.
For the world's oil market, slower demand growth may be perceived as a relief valve from
pending peak oil concerns.
While slower demand growth will take some pressure off the supply challenge, aging oil
fields and accelerating depletion rates remain a relentless cancer in the industry. The recent
media flap over comments by Fatih Birol, chief economist at the IEA, about a peak in
global oil production coming much sooner in time than the agency has publicly

acknowledged may be the tip of the iceberg highlighting that depletion has displaced
growth as the principal driver for the global oil business.
While finding new fields will remain important, the oil industrys focus increasingly will
be on the critical issue of how to get more from existing reservoirs and how best to extract
the lower quality unconventional oil resources around the world.
1.14Relationship between crude oil and Sensex
Relationship between crude oil and Sensex. There will be great combinations of crude oil
and stock market since major world economy are base on crude oil and US dollars, if we
take current example last 40 days crude oil has come down approximately 22% and Sensex
has shoot up around 23%. It is easy to understand that crude oil is directly link with
inflations and crude oil but relationship between crude oil and Sensex is not so easy. If you
look at past history Indian stock market has started to shooting up around May 2003 to Dec
2007 As per statistic around 550% gain has been registered on monthly closing levels
which has come down to 270% if we take 52 weeks levels. Now look at crude oil statistics
Crude oil started his upward journey from US$ 25 in April 2003, in Dec 2007 it was below
$100 and gone up it's all time highest levels$146 in June 2008 still Indian stock market was
keep shooting up like rocket till Dec 2007inpite of around gain of crude oil ($25 to $95 tillDec 07), what is this all about? How we can relate price of crude oil and Sensex always
and every time? If crude oil has gained it all time high then oil-producing companies
should also share success story of crude oil shoot up at world levels. If you look at their
balance sheets of all major oil companies at world levels gain have not been registered
because of US dollars depreciations. So it is us dollar and crude oil both to decide to
market trend. Fortunetly last couple of weeks crude oil has shown big dip and Us dollars
shown big gain against Euro, result is with us Stock market up by 23% in few weeks.(5-6
weeks time ) Now it is advise to book profit 70% of delivery calls .If you remember that
during first week of July 2008 we have recommended to invest in selected 16 stocks for 45
days now 45 days are over time to book profit .

Impact of Crude Oil Prices on Sensex
Low prices of crude oil can be caused by a number of factors. Basically, it could be due to
an imbalance between supply and demand - too much supply or too little demand.
OPEC Member Countries have always tried to adjust their crude oil supplies to improve the
balance between supply and demand. OPEC's aim at all times is to maintain steady supplies
of oil to consumers, while securing a reasonable return for its Member Countries. However,
OPEC cannot be expected to achieve this on its own.
Most non-OPEC oil producers supply as much oil as they can. This makes it difficult for
OPEC to maintain stability in the oil market and results in losing market share and
potential revenue for the organization.
If oil production rises faster than demand, then prices can fall and all oil producers will
suffer. In the long run, consumers will also suffer if the oil industry is unprofitable and
unattractive to investors.
1.16 What causes high crude oil prices?
High crude oil prices could be due to a shortage of oil supplies. High prices for oil
products - as purchased by end consumers such as motorists - are more likely to reflect
other factors, such as taxation.
Crude oil prices react to the balance of demand and supply in the short term, and the rate of
investment in the longer term. If investment is not made far enough in advance, oil supplies
could be limited in the longer term, thus raising prices. Sentiment is also an important
factor: if traders in the oil market believe there will be a shortage of oil supplies, they may
raise prices before a shortage actually occurs. Other factors influencing the price of crude
oil include accidents, bad weather, increasing demand, halting transport of oil fromproducers, labour disputes (strikes) as well as other disruptions to production including war
and natural disasters.
Crude oil now represents less than a quarter of the price of oil products in many countries.
Therefore, taxes have more influence over the price of oil products. When oil taxes are

Impact of Crude Oil Prices on Sensex
raised, end consumers often mistakenly blame the oil producers, but it is really their own
governments that are responsible.
OPEC seeks a stable oil market, without sudden price changes or excessively high or low
prices. OPEC regularly meets with other oil producers and with consumers in an effort to
improve understanding and trust in the oil industry and to seek policies and measures that
do not create unnecessary economic hardship for oil producers or consumers.
1.17 What happen if oil prices go up or down?
The world lives on oil. Oil is the foundation for the plastics and petrochemical industries.
Oil is fundamental to the welfare of the industrialized world and it is a major component of
the farming industry.
The price of oil is reflected in most of the things we do. It impacts on the price of transport,
the cost of goods and services, and the availability of many products, including food, water
and shelter.
If oil prices are too high, then these goods and services become more expensive and
economies experience inflation. Alternative forms of energy would also become more cost-
competitive, but oil producers would eventually increase their supplies and prices would
come back down.
If oil prices are too low, consumers would waste this non-renewable resource, investors
would not be attracted to the industry and oil producers would suffer - especially the
developing countries that produce oil, such as the OPEC Member Countries. If prices were
too low, supplies would eventually fall until there was a price shock - leading back to
inflation.
Oil prices that are too high or too low are clearly unhelpful for oil producers, oil consumers
and the world at large. That is why OPEC makes quite sure that the market is not under-
supplied with oil, forcing prices to go excessively high, and also that the market is not
over-supplied so that prices go too low. It also speaks to other oil producers to encourage

Impact of Crude Oil Prices on Sensex
them to avoid over-supplying the market. It is also why OPEC talks to oil consumers to
encourage them to adopt fair and equitable policies that do not discriminate against oil. We
would all suffer without steady supplies of oil at stable, reasonable prices.
1.18 BSE Sensex History
What is the BSE Sensex?
The BSE Sensex Index is the value-weighted average for the Bombay Stock Exchange.
The Sensex is comprised of the 30 blue chip stocks from the Bombay Stock Exchange and
is the equivalent to the Dow Jones in India. These top 30 stocks account for one-fifth of all
the market capitalization on the Bombay Stock Exchange. Since these baskets of stocks
reflect the broaderIndian Stock Market, the Sensex is recognized around the world as the
key indicator for the health of the Indian economy.
History of the BSE Sensex
The Sensex started with a base value of 100 and tracking began for the index on April 1,
1979. The Sensex officially began being published to the world in April 1984. The Sensex
is the oldest index in India.
The 'BSE SENSEX' is a value-weighted index composed of 30 stocks and was started on
January 1, 1986. The Sensex is regarded as the pulse of the domestic stock markets in
India. It consists of the 30 largest and most actively traded stocks, representative of various
sectors, on the Bombay Stock Exchange. These companies account for around fifty per
cent of the market capitalization of the BSE. The base value of the sensex is 100 on April1, 1979, and the base year of BSE-SENSEX is 1978-79.
SENSEX, first compiled in 1986, was calculated on a "Market Capitalization-Weighted"
methodology of 30 component stocks representing large, well-established and financially
sound companies across key sectors. The base year of SENSEX was taken as 1978-79.

SENSEX today is widely reported in both domestic and international markets through print
as well as electronic media. It is scientifically designed and is based on globally accepted
construction and review methodology. Since September 1, 2003, SENSEX is being
calculated on a free-float market capitalization methodology. The "free-float market
capitalization-weighted" methodology is a widely followed index construction
methodology on which majority of global equity indices are based; all major index
providers like MSCI, FTSE, STOXX, S&P and Dow Jones use the free-float methodology.
The growth of the equity market in India has been phenomenal in the present decade. Right
from early nineties, the stock market witnessed heightened activity in terms of various bull
and bear runs. In the late nineties, the Indian market witnessed a huge frenzy in the 'TMT'
sectors. More recently, real estate caught the fancy of the investors. SENSEX has capturedall these happenings in the most judicious manner. One can identify the booms and busts of
the Indian equity market through SENSEX. As the oldest index in the country, it provides
the time series data over a fairly long period of time (from 1979 onwards). Small wonder,
the SENSEX has become one of the most prominent brands in the country.
The BSE SENSEX consistes of the following companies:
Bajaj Auto Limited, Bharti Airtel Ltd., Bharat Heavy Electricals Ltd., Cipla Ltd., DLF Ltd.,HDFC, HDFC Bank Ltd., Hero Honda Motors Ltd., Hindalco Industries Ltd., Hindustan
Unilever Ltd., ICICI Bank Ltd., Infosys Technologies Ltd., ITC Ltd., Jaiprakash Associates

Communications Ltd., Reliance Infrastructure Ltd., State Bank of India, Sterlite Industries
(India) Ltd., Tata Motors Ltd., Tata Power Company Ltd., Tata Steel Ltd., Tata
Consultancy Services Ltd., Wipro Ltd.
1.19 Maintenance of SENSEX
One of the important aspects of maintaining continuity with the past is to update the base
year average. The base year value adjustment ensures that replacement of stocks in Index,

additional issue of capital and other corporate announcements like 'rights issue' etc. do not
destroy the historical value of the index. The beauty of maintenance lies in the fact that
adjustments for corporate actions in the Index should not per se affect the index values.
The BSE Index Cell does the day-to-day maintenance of the index within the broad index
policy framework set by the BSE Index Committee. The BSE Index Cell ensures that
SENSEX and all the other BSE indices maintain their benchmark properties by striking a
delicate balance between frequent replacements in index and maintaining its historical
continuity. The BSE Index Committee comprises of capital market expert, fund managers,
market participants and members of the BSE Governing Board.

Concept
Free-float methodology refers to an index construction methodology that takes into
consideration only the free-float market capitalization of a company for the purpose of
index calculation and assigning weight to stocks in the index. Free-float market
capitalization takes into consideration only those shares issued by the company that are
readily available for trading in the market. It generally excludes promoters' holding,
government holding, strategic holding and other locked-in shares that will not come to the
market for trading in the normal course. In other words, the market capitalization of each
company in a free-float index is reduced to the extent of its readily available shares in the
market.
Subsequently all BSE indices with the exception of BSE-PSU index have adopted the free-
float methodology.
Major advantages of Free-float Methodology
A Free-float index reflects the market trends more rationally as it takes into
consideration only those shares that are available for trading in the market.
Free-float Methodology makes the index more broad-based by reducing theconcentration of top few companies in Index.
A Free-float index aids both active and passive investing styles. It aids active
managers by enabling them to benchmark their fund returns vis- -vis an investible
index. This enables an apple-to-apple comparison thereby facilitating better
evaluation of performance of active managers. Being a perfectly replicable
portfolio of stocks, a Free-float adjusted index is best suited for the passive
managers as it enables them to track the index with the least tracking error.
Free-float Methodology improves index flexibility in terms of including any stock
from the universe of listed stocks. This improves market coverage and sector
coverage of the index. For example, under a Full-market capitalization
methodology, companies with large market capitalization and low free-float cannot
generally be included in the Index because they tend to distort the index by having
Navnirman Institute of Management28
-

29/44
Impact of Crude Oil Prices on Sensex
an undue influence on the index movement. However, under the Free-float
Methodology, since only the free-float market capitalization of each company is
considered for index calculation, it becomes possible to include such closely held
companies in the index while at the same time preventing their undue influence on
the index movement.
Globally, the Free-float Methodology of index construction is considered to be an
industry best practice and all major index providers like MSCI, FTSE, S&P and
STOXX have adopted the same. MSCI, a leading global index provider, shifted all
its indices to the Free-float Methodology in 2002. The MSCI India Standard Index,
which is followed by Foreign Institutional Investors (FIIs) to track Indian equities,
is also based on the Free-float Methodology. NASDAQ-100, the underlying index
to the famous Exchange Traded Fund (ETF) - QQQ is based on the Free-floatMethodology.
Definition of Free-float
Shareholding of investors that would not, in the normal course come into the open market
for trading are treated as 'Controlling/ Strategic Holdings' and hence not included in free-
float. Specifically, the following categories of holding are generally excluded from the
definition of Free-float:
Shares held by founders/directors/ acquirers which has control element
Shares held by persons/ bodies with "Controlling Interest"
Shares held by Government as promoter/acquirer
Holdings through the FDI Route
Strategic stakes by private corporate bodies/ individuals

Equity held by associate/group companies (cross-holdings)
Equity held by Employee Welfare Trusts
Locked-in shares and shares which would not be sold in the open market in normal

Index Closure Algorithm
The closing SENSEX on any trading day is computed taking the weighted average of all
the trades on SENSEX constituents in the last 30 minutes of trading session. If a SENSEX
constituent has not traded in the last 30 minutes, the last traded price is taken for
computation of the Index closure. If a SENSEX constituent has not traded at all in a day,
then its last day's closing price is taken for computation of Index closure. The use of Index
Closure Algorithm prevents any intentional manipulation of the closing index value.

2.1 SENSEX Calculation Methodology
SENSEX is calculated using the "Free-float Market Capitalization" methodology, wherein;
the level of index at any point of time reflects the free-float market value of 30 component
stocks relative to a base period. The market capitalization of a company is determined by
multiplying the price of its stock by the number of shares issued by the company. This
market capitalization is further multiplied by the free-float factor to determine the free-float
market capitalization.
The base period of SENSEX is 1978-79 and the base value is 100 index points. The
notation 1978-79=100 often indicates this. The calculation of SENSEX involves dividing
the free-float market capitalization of 30 companies in the Index by a number called the
Index Divisor. The Divisor is the only link to the original base period value of the
SENSEX. It keeps the Index comparable over time and is the adjustment point for all Index
adjustments arising out of corporate actions, replacement of scrips etc. During market
hours, prices of the index scrips, at which latest trades are executed, are used by the tradingsystem to calculate SENSEX on a continuous basis.
At regular intervals, the Bombay Stock Exchange (BSE) authorities review and modify its
composition to be sure it reflects current market conditions. The index is calculated based
on a free float capitalization method; a variation of the market cap method. Instead of using
a company's outstanding shares it uses its float, or shares that are readily available for
trading. The free-float method, therefore, does not include restricted stocks, such as those
held by promoters, government and strategic investors.
Initially, the index was calculated based on the full market capitalization method.
However this was shifted to the free float method with effect from September 1, 2003.
Globally, the free float market capitalization is regarded as the industry best practice.

the free float market value of 30 component stocks relative to a base period. The Market
Capitalization of a company is determined by multiplying the price of its stock by the
number of shares issued by the company. This Market capitalization is multiplied by a free
float factor to determine the free float market capitalization. Free float factor is also
referred as adjustment factor. Free float factor represent the percentage of shares that are
readily available for trading.
The Calculation of Sensex involves dividing the free float market capitalization of 30
companies in the index by a number called Index divisor. The Divisor is the only link to
original base period value of the Sensex. It keeps the index comparable over time and is the
adjustment point for all Index adjustments arising out of corporate actions, replacement ofscrips, etc.
The index has increased by over ten times from June 1990 to the present. Using
information from April 1979 onwards, the long-run rate of return on the BSE Sensex works
out to be 18.6% per annum, which translates to roughly 9% per annum after compensating
forinflation.
2.2 Calculation of Crude Oil Price
Determining the price of gasoline and crude oil is a complex matter that takes into
consideration several factors such as the oil grade, the location, source, destination, the
supply and demand, potential major crises in oil-producing countries (higher threat of
which could shoot up worldwide oil prices) and a lot of other global and national
benchmarks.
The world oil price is the value of all the oil imported into the United States. Pricingmarkers or reference markers currently are the West Texas Intermediate (WTI) crude oil,
which is superb quality crude oil that makes for excellent gasoline; Brent Blend, which is
the major benchmark throughout Europe and Africa and which is also excellent though of
lower quality than WTI; OPEC (or Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries) Basket

Price, which comes from countries such as Mexico, Dubai and Saudi Arabia they are
typically priced the lowest for their quality of crude oil is lowest, owing to high sulphur
content, thereby making it least useful for making gasoline. These pricing markers are the
ones to which other crude oil are priced against. For example, a country using WTI as
pricing marker would refer to other oil prices as WTI minus $0.75.
Oil is marketed in commodities markets. These markets, such as the New York Mercantile
Exchange (NYMEX), have experts negotiating for the prices of oil based on transactions
and futures markets. Futures markets refer to how traders would agree upon a future price
of a commodity, based on market trends standards, supply and demand, etc. The
commodities futures work like this: buyers and sellers would agree upon a selling price to
be honored at a specific date. Though this trading is usually based upon the external factorsimpacting the value of oil, this trading in itself could also be a determining factor on oils
value. It can get very complicated but you can read more about this process at the
Commodities Futures Trading Commission website.
The market price of oil is a major determining factor in a countrys economy. Conversely,
the economy is also a factor that determines oil prices. To illustrate, in January 1999 which
was around the time of the Asian financial crisis, prices per barrel shot down to $16 as
there was a negative downturn for demand. For major oil-producing companies, whichderive most of their economic income from oil exports, low oil and fuel prices would mean
a weaker economy. For example, as the world everywhere experiences recession (which
means lower demands for oil) in 2008 oil prices went down from $150 to $40 a barrel in
a space of only 5 months oil exporting countries such as Russia were the some of the
countries that showed major economic downfall.
2.3 Meaning and Calculation of Correlation
Definition:
Correlation is a statistical measurement of the relationship between two variables. Possible
correlations range from +1 to 1. A zero correlation indicates that there is no relationship
Navnirman Institute of Management33

between the variables. A correlation of 1 indicates a perfect negative correlation, meaning
that as one variable goes up, the other goes down. A correlation of +1 indicates a perfect
positive correlation, meaning that both variables move in the same direction together.
The correlation is one of the most common and most useful statistics. A correlation is a
single number that describes the degree of relationship between two variables.
If r is close to 0, it means there is no relationship between the variables. If r is positive, it
means that as one variable gets larger the other gets larger. If r is negative it means that as
one gets larger, the other gets smaller (often called an "inverse" correlation).
While correlation coefficients are normally reported as r = (a value between -1 and +1),
squaring them makes then easier to understand. The square of the coefficient (or r square)
is equal to the percent of the variation in one variable that is related to the variation in the
other. After squaring r, ignore the decimal point. An r of .5 means 25% of the variation is
related (.5 squared =. 25). An r-value of .7 means 49% of the variance is related (.7 squared
= .49).
A correlation report can also show a second result of each test - statistical significance. In
this case, the significance level will tell you how likely it is that the correlations reported
may be due to chance in the form of random sampling error. If you are working with small
sample sizes, choose a report format that includes the significance level. This format also
reports the sample size.
A key thing to remember when working with correlations is never to assume a correlation
means that a change in one variable causes a change in another. Sales of personal
computers and athletic shoes have both risen strongly in the last several years and there is a
high correlation between them, but you cannot assume that buying computers causes
people to buy athletic shoes (or vice versa).

The formula for the correlation is:
We use the symbol r to stand for the correlation. Through the magic of mathematics it
turns out that r will always be between -1.0 and +1.0. If the correlation is negative, we have
a negative relationship; if it's positive, the relationship is positive

Interpretation:
The table and line chart shows the monthly crude oil prices with the Sensex Value. As
increase in Crude oil prices there is also increase in sensex value as you can see in the
chart. The table and line chart shows the monthly in crude oil prices with the Sensex Value.
In 2008 there is crude oil price is down and also sensex value down in this year. This
happen due to Global Recession.The table and line chart shows the monthly crude oil
prices with the Sensex Value. As increase in Crude oil prices there is decrease in sensex
value as you can see in the chart. Correlation value is approx 0.49 that means it is positive
and direct relationship. If the crude oil prices increase than sensex value also increase and
the crude oil prices decrease than sensex value also decrease.

Conclusion
Relationship between crude oil and Sensex. There will be great combinations of
crude oil and stock market since major world economy are base on crude oil and
US dollars, if we take current example last 40 days crude oil has come down
approximately 22% and Sensex has shoot up around 23%.
We cant conclude that the crude oil price is the only variable which impacts the
stock market. There are many variables like inflation, FII FDI, political issues;
government monetary policies etc that are also Influence the stock market.
It is easy to understand that crude oil is directly link with inflations and crude oil
but relationship between crude oil and Sensex is not so easy.
Remember other than service sectors all most all the manufacturing sector is
directly associated with the price of the crude. When the price of this important
element increases it will push up the prices and thereby inflation. Excessive
inflation is of no good sign to economy and hence it slows down.
As increase in Crude oil prices there is also increase in sensex value as per chart. In
2008 there is Crude oil prices down in mostly every month and sensex value also
down in this year. This happen due to Global Recession.
As the world everywhere experiences recession (which means lower demands for
oil) in 2008 oil prices went down from $150 to $40 a barrel in a space of only 5
months oil exporting countries such as Russia were the some of the countries that
showed major economic downfall.
