Abstract

In post liberalisation period, the Indian equity market has become more integrated with other developed and emerging markets in the world. As a result of this increased integration among stock markets internationally, the return volatility in other markets put a significant impact on the volatility in the Indian market. The National Stock Exchange (NSE) introduced a volatility index in 2008 called the ‘India Volatility Index’ or ‘India VIX’ to measure particularly implied volatility for the Indian market. India VIX is calculated from near-term order book in ‘at-the-money options’ on the CNX Nifty 50 index. This paper is an attempt to explore the idea of Volatility Index (VIX) and India VIX on the basis of secondary data.
