Abstract

This study examines the risk-adjusted returns of selected companies in the FMCG, Automobile, and Banking industries over the period 2014-2024. The analysis employs various metrics, including Sharpe Ratio, Treynor Ratio, and beta values, to evaluate the performance of these companies. The results reveal significant variations in risk-adjusted returns across industries and companies. Notably, NESTLE and MARUTI SUZUKI emerge as top performers in the FMCG and Automobile industries, respectively, while KOTAK and HDFC exhibit strong performance in the Banking industry. The study provides valuable insights for investors seeking to optimize their portfolios by identifying companies with superior risk-adjusted returns. The findings also underscore the importance of considering industry-specific factors and risk metrics when making investment decisions.
