Abstract
The aim of this study is to determine whether the capital asset pricing model exists in the Indian stock market. Using the integrated concepts of Black Janson and Scholes and Fama and Macbeth technique on portfolios rather than individual stocks. We have taken the sample of 150 midcap stocks from 2021 to 2023 (36 months). The study provides empirical evidence that there is a risk anomaly in the Indian equities market while the capital asset pricing model's assertion that risk and return are directly correlated. The study findings also demonstrate the non-linearity between portfolio betas and returns which goes against the CAPM theory. This study also explores whether the CAPM fully accounts for stock variance to test the effectiveness of unsystematic risk and our findings suggest that the residual risk is insignificant, which is according to the Capital Asset Pricing Model.
